The setting sun shone on the mountain col, revealing a dark red atmosphere.
Four days have passed.
The distance between the red clouds in the sky and Phoenix Mountain has become very close, and it is estimated that they will float overhead in a day or two, ending this time and space journey completely.
Bai Buai searched almost all over Phoenix Mountain, but could not find Li Nanke and Shangguan Guan.
On the contrary, in the past few days, my relationship with Shuangshuang has become closer and closer.
The anxious mood was relieved a lot with the girl's company.
Of course, from Bai Buai's point of view, he doesn't think this is love between a man and a woman. He thinks this is the feeling of good friends getting along, and it has nothing to do with love.
After all, he vowed not to have a boring relationship in this life.
Just the thought of being separated from Shuangshuang immediately made Bai Buai's heart feel like an awl was piercing it gently.
Bai Buai clenched her fists subconsciously, not caring that the rabbit meat was burnt, as if some emotion was about to burst out from her heart.
Both of them laughed, which diluted the gloomy atmosphere.
The man is Shangguanguan.
"don't want!"
"There must be some mechanism."
"Are you happy if I become a monk?"
Suddenly, a loud noise came, startling the two of them.
I can only follow the advice of the matchmaker, listen to my aunt's words, choose a man that I like, and live a simple life. I just hope that the husband I find will not beat me up.
"I'm different from you. You come from a wealthy family and you married a beautiful young lady. Your life will be very good in the future.
"Do you think I'll be happy?"
Bai Ruyue pointed to the opposite wall.
Bai Buai rushed in front of the girl, blocked her behind him, stared nervously at the place where the sound came from, and picked up the crossbow.
"Of course I will."
But the man opened his mouth for a long time, but he still couldn't say that sentence.
Li Nanke walked over and looked at the light from the dragon jade. It turned out to be a sword.
The girl looked at him strangely, "I'm not going to be a nun, so why don't I get married? Do you think you won't marry and have children for the rest of your life?"
Both eyes widened, "What can I do if I don't get married? Then I might as well become a nun."
The ground around the sword body is also extremely hard.
They both waved their little fists and pretended to be fierce, like angry kittens.
At this time, Bai Ruyue suddenly spoke.
Bai Buai couldn't understand it, so he bravely walked towards the Taoist temple.
————
Bai Buai stared at him.
Because in our village, many men beat their wives, very violently..."
The girl was a stranger he had never seen before.
"No, we will go out soon." Bai Buai understood that the girl was worried about her sick aunt, and comforted her.
Li Nanke sat up, patted his forehead, and whispered dissatisfiedly: "I thought I had become a peerless master, but I slapped my hand and fell into a coma."
The girl's eyebrows were furrowed with sadness.
This look amused the man.
Boom!
They both smiled and said, "Then you just want to be a monk. If that's the case, I would like to congratulate you in advance on becoming an eminent monk in the future."
Bai Buai looked in the direction pointed by the girl, and saw that the Taoist temple that they had been unable to find before was now clearly in their sight.
"What?" Li Nanke was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the woman, "How do you know it's called the Yuanyang Sword?"
Li Nanke tried to pull it out, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not pull it out.
Bai Buai said angrily.
As soon as this sound came out, the strange girl was the first to be frightened. She quickly slid behind the pillar like a snake and stared at the man warily.
"Shangguan Pass!"
At this moment, he was fiercely preparing to pounce on Shangguan Pass.
"It's a sword."
But the Taoist temple is so big, and it has been inspected several times before. If there was any mechanism, it would have been discovered by now, unless it was hidden very deep.
Only the hilt of the sword is carved with a pair of dragon and phoenix patterns.
It seems that the thing you love is about to be possessed by someone else.
"Then why don't you get married?"
When Li Nanke woke up, he was lying in the woman's arms.
Shuangshuang originally planned to make a joke, but looked into the man's eyes, swallowed his words, lowered his head slightly and chose silence.
With the appearance of the Taoist temple, the surrounding scenery has become much more familiar.
Although the girl's answer was perfectly reasonable, Bai Buai felt uncomfortable inside.
Bai Ruyue said "hmm".
Li Nanke asked, the woman's familiar arms contained a faint scent of incense, which made people feel at ease.
After realizing it, Shangguan Guan woke up and raised his hand to stop him in a hurry.
Half of the sword was buried in the soil.
"What is that?" Li Nanke wondered.
But inside, I feel more joy and warmth.
After waiting for a while and seeing no movement, the two of them carefully walked out of the forest.
He said angrily: "That's right. I won't get married and have children. It's going to be very troublesome."
"Taoist temple!"
Both of them suddenly shouted.
The two sitting in front of the bonfire were more lively and a little more tired than the previous two days.
Seeing this scene, Bai Buai immediately raised his crossbow and pointed it at the girl.
The gate of the Taoist temple was closed tightly, and the surroundings were quiet.
"Am I unconscious?"
Bai Ruyue said, "But I can't pull it out."
Bai Buai mustered up the courage to push open the cold old door and was shocked to see a man and a woman inside the Taoist temple.
He looked up at the shattered statue and found that the place where the statue had been was actually burning with a layer of crimson light.
"What's wrong?" They both stood up quickly.
The appearance of this sword is not much different from that of an ordinary sword, but the blade is slightly longer.
Both of them followed closely behind.
"Don't worry, I have good eyesight. And I am also very fierce. If my husband dares to hit me, I will definitely beat him."
The man's blood-red eyes were like an angry lion, and even those who had learned about each other's character in the past few days looked a little timid.
"Whoever dares to hit you, I'll fucking kill him!"
It's just that the girl's body is in a weird twisted shape, as if the bones in her body have been softened and remade, so that she can be twisted into twists.
"Why did it appear suddenly?"
Looking at the girl's delicate face under the firelight, Bai Buai felt an inexplicable impulse in his heart and said, "If, I mean if... we were stuck here for the rest of our lives, would you be happy?"
"We won't be stuck here forever."
"Mandarin Duck Sword."
After a while, she said softly:
Bai Buai smiled awkwardly, clumsily inserted the prepared rabbit meat on a branch, and placed it in front of the fire to roast.
But the strange thing is that Shangguanguan just stood there in a daze, without any resistance.
Bai Buai said in a low voice.
After a while, he pretended to be casual and asked: "Will you get married in the future?"
Li Nanke rubbed his chin and guessed.
"Either...or..."
They both gave a cute look.
The dim light emitted by the dragon jade reflected the worried and beautiful face of the woman. After seeing the man wake up, the deep worry was immediately replaced by surprise and relief.
Under the illumination of the dragon jade's halo, a few lines of words appeared on the shadow of the sword branded on the wall.
The most conspicuous thing is the three characters "Yuanyang Sword".
Is this okay?
Li Nanke wanted to complain.
He walked to the wall and read the small print carefully, frowned and said, "It says that if you want to pull out this sword, you must hold it together with lovers who are close to each other."
