Was it a dream?
Just think of it as a nightmare.
The wet land is actually not what it sounds like. The scorching sun is scorching the earth, and the sea breeze is mixed with the stench of rotting fish. The entire Dairi Mining Pier is like a huge steamer that has long since decayed.
Nan Fuguang opened his eyes again, and unexpectedly found himself back in the emperor's wing. At this time, the window sash was half open, and the sound of hawking on the street could be heard from time to time. The white mist of the freshly brewed tea was rising and floating in the house.
There was only Yan Ji'an standing by the window in the house, and Lu Sang was nowhere to be found. Nan Fuguang guessed that the time of her return was probably when Lu Sang was going to bring Xue Pinggui...
This node was chosen quite well.
After all, everything that will happen in the next moment will be like a wild horse that is out of control. In the end, she will become a squeaking, incompetent and furious fox.
Nan Fuguang stood up and Yan Jian turned around.
Looking into those quiet black eyes, Nan Fuguang felt familiar yet unfamiliar. He moved his lips and wanted to call him "Master", but found that no matter how hard the voice reached his lips, he couldn't say a word. Before that, the entire People have been shrouded in another wave of powerlessness and fear——
Yan Ji'an knew everything about Da Ri Mine.
This is no surprise.
Yan Ji'an himself is a special being. Many people say that he actually has the memories of his previous life. Except that he has not completely overcome the tribulation and turned into a real dragon, he is the real one who existed before the Shatuo Sky-Splitting Tree withered. Dragon Immortal Lord.
Nowadays, the Three Realms and Six Paths are changing from generation to generation. Strictly speaking, even the current leader of the Immortal Alliance is just a descendant of who knows how many generations...
He has a transcendent status, sitting at the head of the six realms in the entire Three Realms, and his status is above the law of "Shatuo Split Sky Tree".
Yunshang Immortal Master has retained too many ancient memories. He has personally experienced the birth and withering of the Shatuo Sky-Splitting Tree. In his eyes, all living beings may be just passers-by.
So he may be the only outsider who knows and understands what the Big Sun Mine is all about.
So it didn't seem surprising that he knew what happened to the monster imprisoned inside. Even based on his strength estimation, he couldn't rule out the possibility that the mysterious monster was captured by him personally...
And for so many years, he chose to stand by and watch the Dairi Mine, and the Emperor Shan Gao who broke away from the "Kingfisher's Nest" and came to the Dairi Mine to become the Shan Dawang's commander Duan Nan.
What would happen if the Immortal Alliance knew about this?
Will he be regarded as an accomplice of the evil because he remains silent about the secrets of the mining area?
Nan Fuguang's mind was in a mess. She didn't know how to face Yan Ji'an for a moment. For a moment, she almost wanted to persuade him to surrender as soon as possible. When the words came to her mouth, she felt like she was going crazy——
How can the Immortal Alliance handle the banquet?
Now the Shatuo Sky-Splitting Tree is waiting for him to revive, and the entire Three Realms and Six Paths are waiting for him to save.
The Immortal Alliance didn't dare to do anything to him.
Anyway, the power of "Kingfisher's Nest" can't do anything to him, an immortal-level boss who is just one step away from catastrophe.
This guy could totally be an outlaw.
There is no solution to this question.
"Riri?"
Nan Fuguang stood up unsteadily and waved his hands, as if answering him, more like talking to himself.
"It's time for me to go back. I suddenly remembered that I went out today and looked at the almanac. It said 'not suitable for going out'. I think I'd better——"
Seeing that Nan Fuguang was really going to leave, Yan Ji'an was a little surprised. After all, she was very aggressive when she came. This time because the atmosphere was calm, he didn't use the "close the door and let the dogs out" trick again, and just said "wait a minute."
The next moment, she stopped beside Nan Fuguang, who was standing in front of the door. His fingers wrapped around her wrist like a snake, and she shivered uncontrollably.
She resisted his touch more than she imagined, turned around suddenly and shook his hand away: "Don't touch me!"
Yunshang Xianzun, who was pushed away unprepared, took a step back, tilted his head in confusion, leaned over slightly, and quickly grabbed Nan Fuguang, who was trying to retreat, and this time the hand holding her wrist tightened. , holding her tighter without rejection.
"Riri, are you still angry about being a teacher? It was the master's fault that I didn't listen to your appeal that day. Please forgive me for once."
A slow and gentle voice sounded in his ears, and the content was very ridiculous. It took Nan Fuguang a while to realize that it was Yan Ji'an who was speaking——
Did he apologize?
Yunshang Immortal, who has been aloof all his life and regards everyone as an ant, apologizes?
"Follow me back to Yuntian Sect." Yan Ji'an paused for a moment, "The matters related to the Da Ri Mine that you mentioned need to be reported to the Immortal Alliance. I heard it... Although I don't know what the specific matter is, let's go back first and then discuss it in the long term. Do you think it's feasible? ?”
I don't think it works.
Nan Fuguang carefully recalled what happened before this point. Remembering what happened at Da Ri Mine before Lu Sang brought the gambler, she started to speak anxiously.
From the perspective of Yan Ji'an in the current timeline, the whole thing was probably because she mentioned that there was something fishy in Da Ri Mine. He hesitated to report it to the Immortal Alliance without even hearing what it was. She immediately stood up unhappy. Get up and leave.
At this time, he raised his head slightly, and the two looked at each other in silence for a moment. Nan Fuguang shook his head firmly, tried to take out his wrist from the other's hand, and suddenly asked a question.
"Did you ask someone to put the red flower on my table?"
For a moment, Yan Ji'an didn't answer her immediately.
He just looked at her with some confusion, as if he was curious about the significance of raising this question.
The chest, which had been weighed heavily since just now and was out of breath, seemed to have been completely squeezed dry at this time, losing its basic function of rising and falling... Nan Fuguang swallowed a heavy mouthful of saliva, and a sense of rigidity spread throughout his body, and said: "No matter what you want to do, I have good intentions, but I won't agree."
As Nan Fuguang spoke, he used all his strength to firmly pull his wrist out of Yan Ji'an's hand.
"I can't agree." Her voice was a little hoarse. "Exchanging lives for lives, no matter whether the other person dies or not, it is a human life... We who are cultivators of immortality and Taoism should not do this. This is not correct."
In my impression, Nan Fuguang, the eldest sister of Yuntian Sect, is always domineering, walking with her nostrils in the sky and showing her teeth and claws.
She had never been like this before. She seemed to be addicted to some unknown panic, her eyes and the tip of her nose were red, and her pale lips were bitten red and swollen...
She drooped her head dejectedly, frustrated and pitiful.
The look she looked at him no longer looked as respectful or pure as before.
Yan Ji'an was frightened for no reason.
Yan Ji'an originally wanted to ask her how she knew that the way he thought of was to find someone to "exchange one life for another" with her after she got the contract of the Da Ri Mine in exchange for tokens. However, when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized: "You Did you use a time converter just now?”
Nan Fuguang stood stiffly in place.
Yan Ji'an leaned forward and saw the corners of her drooping lips pursed tightly, and his fingertips touched her lightly as if he couldn't control it.
"Riri, what happened just now?"
I don't know what the relationship between dragons and snakes is. He himself is always like a cold-blooded animal, and his hands are also relatively cold.
When you touch her soft and warm lips, you can't move away.
The stubborn temper unique to the dragon tribe came to Yan Ji'an, and he rubbed the corner of her lips with his thumb. The fingers that were used to using the sword were naturally rough, as if he wanted to smooth out the loss.
"Come back with me."
The low voice is slightly persuasive, and the unique cold fragrance on Yunshang Immortal Lord leans down and presses down, and the breath envelopes the people in front of him step by step——
The lips were pressed by the other person's fingertips, giving the illusion of burning pain.
Nan Fuguang came back to his senses, and like a frightened bird, he suddenly slapped the opponent's hand away——
There was a harsh metallic sound, and the rough-edged dagger was even pressed between the two of them.
Yan Ji'an lowered his gaze, from the broken dagger that was almost touching the tip of his nose, to finally landing on Nan Fuguang's pale face.
When Lu Sang and Xue Pinggui came back from outside, he pushed open the door of the wing and looked at the two people who were so close to each other in the wing that they were about to touch each other, and he was suddenly startled.
From her perspective, she could not see the dagger between the two of them, and the sudden coldness and tightness... It was obvious that she had misunderstood something. The young junior sister of Yuntian Sect suddenly turned pale, and her eyes turned red silently.
Nan Fuguang turned his head and saw Xue Pinggui, who was standing at the farthest end of the door and was about to kneel down, but found that the atmosphere was not right and his face was full of confusion. The divine phoenix has a fragile face and is about to cry.
There is also a real dragon standing in front of her, with his eyes downcast and his face emotionless, unable to distinguish between joy and anger...
What a big Shura field.
Her stiff neck began to hurt. She put away the dagger and quickly left the range where Anke could catch her again. She decisively opened her legs and turned around to leave.
……
Nan Fuguang climbed downstairs and reached the first floor of the wine shop. The butcher had just finished half of his pot of wine.
As soon as he picked up the beef with chopsticks, Nan Fuguang came to him aggressively and asked him in a bad tone what he was doing after he knocked her unconscious. It took him so long, otherwise she could obviously go back to the point before opening the door of the wing. Then he chose to decisively turn around and leave.
The pig butcher was suddenly brutally beaten by her.
But fortunately he was used to her unstable moods.
Lifting his eyelids, there was still a smile on the man's lips, and he was about to ask her what she had done again, as if the fire had burned the fox's tail... However, when his eyes swept over her face, he suddenly smiled, and the curvature of his raised lips was slightly Flattened a bit.
When the sentence that wanted to ask her what she had just done came to her lips, it turned into asking her if dogs could never stop eating dirty things. Nan Fuguang: "?"
After being scolded, Nan Fuguang choked. The anger on her face was extinguished and was replaced by confusion. She blinked and asked, "What? What did you say? What happened to me?"
The butcher didn't say anything, but his gaze passed over her lips lightly again. The color of her lips was different from the usual pale lips. I really don't blame him for thinking too much.
However, he didn't say anything else. He had always done a good job in "respecting the fate of others", but now he had to go through it in his mind before he had anything to say, just as a reminder to himself.
He shook his head, put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said calmly: "It's okay, just go back."
Across a table, Nan Fuguang stared at him and shook his head, suddenly feeling that the news of the world was coming really quickly——
How bad she is now, I guess Yan Ji'an wanted to hit someone just now when he saw her shaking her head.
She moved her lips and wanted to ask the pig butcher why he was so crazy, but the man with long hands and long legs had already passed her by and left the wine shop.
Nan Fuguang said "Ah", and the pig butcher didn't mean to look back at her. She had no choice but to turn around in panic and chase after him...
When they came, they were able to walk side by side, but when they came back, because the person walking in front didn't restrain his pace, she almost ran and jumped after him.
The two of them walked in tandem. Along the way, the silent atmosphere made Nan Fuguang feel a little uncomfortable. She frequently turned her head to look at the person next to her. Finally, one time she saw a slight wound on his cheek——
It was clearly injured by the sword energy.
She was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with your face?"
The pig butcher was silent for a moment and did not answer immediately. What was annoying was that he looked straight ahead and showed no intention of paying attention to her. Nan Fuguang then stretched out her hand to tug on his sleeve reluctantly.
The latter raised her hand and easily pulled the rough fabric away from her hand, but at least she stopped moving forward.
He lowered his head and looked at her, the emotion on his face almost invisible.
There seems to be a faint smile on the corner of the man's lips, but based on Nan Fuguang's understanding of him, his current expression should not mean much to smile, and the alienation that drives people's hearts comes out again...
She hadn't felt this way in a long time.
She felt a little twisted and cramped, and the soles of her shoes unconsciously rubbed against the ground a few times.
"I didn't do anything. I just asked your master and junior sister to be kind and let us leave after you passed out."
A calm voice rang in her ears, and it took Nan Fuguang a moment to realize that he was answering her original question.
She said "Ah". To be honest, she couldn't imagine him "asking" others. This logic was also a bit strange. After all, he was just a mortal, and at that time he was facing the ceiling of the world of immortality.
"Your junior sister didn't want to," said the pig butcher, "so she drew her sword."
Hearing this, Nan Fuguang ignored the sense of disobedience and reflexively stared back at the wine shop.
"The Ninth Life of Cats" is a work invented by the senior sister of Yuntian Sect during her childhood. It also has the instability of time transition. What happened in the previous timeline was accidentally retained and partially folded to occur in the new timeline. This is not surprising...
Nan Fuguang was even thinking that now she only saw a trace of blood. Could it be that in the previous timeline, Lu Sang stabbed the butcher to death?
Although she is just a novice monk, she can't stand up to other people's divine phoenixes and divine phoenixes, and she has made rapid progress. Now, as a foundation-building monk, doesn't it take a minute to bully a mortal?
Thinking of this, Nan Fuguang looked back at the wine shop, and his desire to go back to Lu Sang to settle the score became even stronger.
——The level of monasticism has improved rapidly, yes, but those monks have also learned their bad habits very quickly? How long has it been since I was able to draw my sword against defenseless mortals at will? Yan Ji'an only teaches people to draw swords but not the three views?
Nan Fuguang looked unhappy: "What's the use of doing all this extra work? You can just use the time converter."
"The situation was urgent and I forgot about it."
The butcher explained lightly, took out the time turner from his pocket, and hung the black fox pendant with two remaining tails back on Nan Fuguang's neck.
The strong knot seemed to still carry the residual warmth of his palm.
Nan Fuguang subconsciously raised his hand to brush the two tails of the black fox, feeling an unknown emotion welling up in her heart. She couldn't explain why. She was not very accepting of the pig butcher asking someone for matters related to her——
Although he brushed off the matter in passing and didn't even go into details.
She bit her lip: "Are you unhappy about this?"
She thought that the butcher might be trying to deal with her awkwardly, but she didn't expect that the other party was just silent for a moment and answered decisively: "No."
Nan Fuguang raised his eyes and looked at him.
"I just didn't expect that I would be wronged in exchange for an opportunity to use the time turner. The first thing you do after you come back is to be intimate with your master."
"?"
"Why don't you just follow him back to Yuntian Sect?"
"???"
Nan Fuguang's forehead was full of question marks.
The other party's tone was too calm, and when he said "I've been wronged a lot," there didn't seem to be much grievance in his tone. However, it didn't stop Nan Fuguang from feeling as if his heart was empty. He stared at his face and refused to let go. Change and said seriously: "I don't know what you are thinking, but I am not intimate with him."
It was obviously a sunny day, and the sun was baking the earth like a furnace, but the atmosphere between the two was getting lower and lower. At this time, it was almost as cool as the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.
The butcher's eyebrows were slightly lowered, and he said "Oh" slowly. After a while, as if he didn't want to continue arguing about this matter, he lowered his voice slightly and said: "I know."
His unilateral compromise could not save the seriousness between the two that was about to wither.
In fact, it seemed like this was the first time since I'd known this man that he acted so coldly.
Not even that time when he rejected her friend request and just picked her up from the wonton stand and threw her out the door.
Nan Fuguang's throat rolled, and she was quite crazy. She never thought that there were people in the world who loved oil and salt as much as she did. It was really a kindness to her that the people around her didn't beat her to death all these years.
"I just said a few words to him and then came down to find you." She stared at the profile of the man next to her who was too handsome and looked very stupid due to his indifference, and argued feebly, "How long has it been since I came back before I came to you? , don’t you know?”
The more he said this, the more he explained to his wife that she had not yet cheated on her husband.
The butcher just said "Oh" again and smiled perfunctorily at her, as if he didn't listen to a word she said.
With this smile, the fire in Nan Fuguang's heart suddenly jumped up. She thought to herself, I have a time turner. I'll use it again. This time, I went back to the wine shop and jumped over the railing from the second floor to his table, fighting for a moment. Don't delay either.
Nan Fuguang was so angry that he was breathing heavily.
She stamped her feet childishly on the spot, and then realized that the man, not to mention appreciating her tantrum, would not even stop her pace. She kicked a stone away from her feet and followed him angrily.
Just when she was so speechless that the hair on her head almost stood up, a voice came from not far away, "Whoever kills the pig, give it back to my senior sister"——
The two of them both turned their heads and saw a deer leaping down from the second floor window of the wine shop behind them.
Behind the window, Yan Jianan stood leaning against the window, looking from a distance, his eyes stopped between Nan Fuguang and the pig butcher.
Without any time to think, Nan Fuguang directly grabbed a dagger from the Qiankun bag and stood in front of the butcher.
The monk's eyesight was so good that from such a long distance, she saw that Yan Ji'an's hand holding on to the edge of the window tightened slightly and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
"Sister, please come back with us. Don't worry Master anymore!"
Lu Sang came running with his sword.
Behind him, the pig butcher let out a sigh of unknown meaning, and said calmly, "The ghost is really lingering."
In the flash of lightning, Nan Fuguang connected some seemingly unrelated things together, and suddenly came to an earth-shattering conclusion without any logic——
What's the meaning?
Could it be that the pig-killer acted like that just now because he was jealous?
It's a pity that Nan Fuguang failed to ask this question.
She just looked back at the butcher in horror, as if he had stabbed her suddenly while he was standing behind her. When the man raised his eyebrows and looked back in confusion, an unprecedented loud noise sounded behind them in the direction of the Big Sun Mine.
