Subtle footsteps came from outside the door, interrupting Tang Yan's contemplation and bringing him back to reality from his disturbing emotions.
But the blockage in my heart stayed there, turning into a bitterness that couldn't be wiped away from the corner of my mouth.
Zhaoyi wandered outside the door for a long time, feeling a little hesitant and a little confused. She came here by accident, and then hesitated inexplicably. Even she herself was a little strange, why did she come here, and what was she hesitating about.
Just as he turned to leave.
Tang Yan's voice came from inside: "Is it the Grand Palace Master? Come in."
Zhaoyi was silent for a while, smiled and shook her head. Why was she still nervous? She calmed down a little, opened the door and walked in: "Are you still asleep?"
Tang Yan put away the jade hairpin and wiped away the sparkling light from the corners of his eyes without leaving a trace: "I am thinking about something. Is there anything wrong with the Grand Palace Master?"
"Nothing, come and take a look." Zhaoyi walked into the hall, the dancing candlelight reflected the stunning beauty, adding a touch of delicate tenderness to the noble and dignified temperament.
"Sit down." Tang Yan motioned Zhaoyi to sit at the tea table and poured her a cup: "This is what Mr. Odin gave me when I was still in the Rao family. The tea tastes soft and slightly bitter. In the past,
I don’t like it very much, so I took it out to try today and it tastes pretty good.”
"Have you treasured it for more than ten years?" Zhaoyi looked at Tang Yan's slightly lowered face, unable to hide a hint of haggard and fatigue. She could hear the sadness in Tang Yan's words, not the bitterness of tea, but the bitterness of people's hearts.
"Yes, it has been more than ten years. Unknowingly, time flies by so fast. I used to feel like a child in Eternal Beast Mountain, but now I suddenly feel like I have grown up." Tang Yan raised his eyes and said strangely:
"What are you looking at me for? My face looks old, too?"
"You have indeed grown up and matured. If you were like this in the Dayan Mountains in the early years, maybe I..." Zhaoyi wanted to bring up a light topic to lighten the dull atmosphere, but suddenly thought of the absurdity of that year
At the scene, his cheeks felt slightly hot, and he changed the subject in time: "Maybe my fourth sister will have some feelings for you."
"Master of the Fourth Palace, how is she doing recently?"
"It's still the same." Zhaoyi picked up the tea cup and drank it gently, covering up her slight embarrassment and said: "I haven't seen you smile since Black Cloud City until now. I'm really not used to it. If Du Yang and the others
Even if I see you like this here, I will be worried."
"Laughing? Can I laugh? I don't know whether Niya is alive or dead. Grandpa and the others are suffering." Tang Yan was heartbroken and panicked. He exhaled and looked out the window at the night: "I used to think that I could have no scruples. If I committed a crime, I would risk my life."
Tianya. But unknowingly, I had so many concerns. This accident was purely due to my negligence that put them in danger."
"People always have to grow up, and there are always worries. If you can feel the weight of responsibility on your shoulders, it means you have really grown up. You are a human being, not a god. You cannot predict everything, nor can you think about it.
It is comprehensive and cannot take into account everything. If it were someone else, faced with the environment you are in, facing the same enemies and dangers, I am afraid they would have done more embarrassingly."
Tang Yan withdrew his gaze and shook his teacup: "It's rare to hear the Grand Palace Master praise someone. I'm honored."
"I'm not praising you, I'm just talking about it. No matter how people looked at you before, including me, now you make everyone look up to you, including me."
Perhaps it was Tang Yan's improvement in strength, or perhaps his change in maturity, that made Zhaoyi unconsciously loosen the barrier when facing Tang Yan, and it became more like a calm conversation between people of the same age and level.
It was very leisurely and peaceful, and I even forgot my own identity.
Ever since I entered the Dayan Mountains to close my emotions, I haven't felt this way for nearly a thousand years.
It's very subtle and strange. Zhaoyi doesn't reject it subconsciously.
Tang Yan looked at the tea cup absentmindedly, his expression a little lost, and said nothing more.
Zhaoyi also tasted the bitter tea carefully: "I heard you mention Na Wu Nian of Falan Tower in Black Cloud City? Has anything happened before? You can say it if it's convenient. If you hold it in your heart, it will become more and more uncomfortable."
Tang Yan still shook his head and did not explain. He remained silent for a while and then spoke in a hoarse voice: "I used to be impatient to enter the Central Plains, thinking that I could easily break out of the world. Now I realize how naive my thoughts were back then.
Niya was lost, my relatives were arrested, and I paid the price for my naivety. If anything happens to them, I really don’t know how to forgive myself."
"Actually, I'm curious, what are you worried about?" Zhaoyi looked at Tang Yan tenderly and whispered: "Sister Niya, inherited from Taizu, is smart and calm, and knows how to protect herself. I'm actually not worried.
You should not be as worried about her safety as you are now. Did something happen?
As for Tang Ying and the others, they are safe until the Holy Spirit Temple catches you. You and I both understand this.
What we need to do now is to avoid accidents as much as possible, turn passivity into initiative, and not be sentimental."
"Don't worry about me, I'm just free and thinking."
"I appreciate you now, but I also hope to see the shadow of your past. The maturity of a man is not only the ability to bear his own mistakes and shoulder his due responsibilities, but also an optimistic and positive attitude. Maturity is not
It means getting older, not tired, but stronger and braver."
Zhaoyi rarely talks about so many truths with others, and she never talks to a man. But looking at Tang Yan like this, she really feels a little distressed. It's not that Tang Yan can't bear it, but what happened recently
There are too many things that mean he takes family affection too seriously.
Tang Yan nodded and took a sip of bitter tea to calm down: "How are they doing after the Holy Spirit Temple raided Wagang Village?"
"Nalantu is very attentive and helps the old people to divert the attention of the disciples in Wagang Village to hard work and experience. Now they are practicing in full swing. The Tiger and Ben Iron Cavalry has grown very fast. Tang Qiong has also joined, and he is in the same age group. Shapu
The mercenary group has basically adapted to life in the Dayan Mountains, and they have become integrated with the Huben side, and they have been competing with each other. In short, you don't have to worry, Wagang Village is developing very well."
"I plan to settle old accounts with King Zhou Ling and move Wagang Village into Eternal Beast Mountain."
"Would Eternal Beast Mountain agree? There are nearly 200,000 disciples in Wagang Village now, which is not a small number. The living environment of Eternal Beast Mountain is very cruel, with all kinds of monsters running rampant. Even we suffered everywhere back then, and they may not be able to go in.
bear.
What's more, the energy of heaven and earth that needs to be absorbed by the collective training of 200,000 disciples is not a small amount, and it can easily break the balance of the Eternal Beast Mountain."
"There are more than 200,000 people in Wagang Village, and not all of them may follow. I estimate that about 100,000 loyal and brave disciples will be selected to enter the Eternal Beast Mountain to survive and develop. Although it is cruel there, it is more suitable for the growth of Wagang Village, and it is also a place
Safe home.
No matter how powerful the enemy is, it is impossible to discover the Eternal Beast Mountain in the void. Moreover, the star battlefield of Xingluo Ancient Kingdom is part of the Eternal Beast Mountain. If the two can meet in the void, a brand new Eternal Beast Mountain will be created, and a hundred thousand people can enter it.
A piece of cake."
"It's best to say hello to Eternal Beast Mountain before going in. It's not a trivial matter after all."
"Grand Palace Master, how about...you also move the Yuhua Palace into the Eternal Beast Mountain? After all, the Dayan Mountains are located in the wilderness, which is not conducive to the cultivation and growth of people above the rank of honor."
"The Yuhua Palace has survived in the Dayan Mountains for thousands of years and has become dependent on it. The Eternal Beast Mountain is indeed a good place, but I need to discuss it with several other palace owners."
Tang Yan looked into Zhaoyi's eyes and said sincerely: "I still hope that we can be together and take care of each other. If I leave you alone in the Dayan Mountains, if another accident happens, I won't be able to bear it.
"
Zhaoyi smiled slightly: "Since you sincerely invited us, we will seriously consider it. It's getting late, I should go back. I hope you can cheer up. Things have happened, and we should face it bravely. I think Ni
Sister Ya doesn’t want to see you like you are now either.”
Tang Yan stood up and said goodbye: "Grand Palace Master, thank you for chatting with me. I feel much better."
"This is what I should do. It would be best if you could smile again. You look old-fashioned with a straight face, and I don't like it very much." Zhaoyi smiled softly, indicating that Tang Yan didn't need to send him off, and stood up to leave.
The casual and leisurely joke seemed to have a special meaning when it came out of Zhaoyi's mouth.
Tang Yan looked at Zhaoyi's back and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he seemed hesitant.
Zhaoyi left the hall and walked toward the door, but unknowingly, her steps slowed down.
The red candle danced, illuminating the quaint room, providing a soft light and igniting a subtle feeling of love. Tang Yan lowered his eyebrows and said nothing, Zhaoyi slowed down, and a strange feeling filled each other's hearts and circulated.
In a dark room.
Weird and boring, each has its own taste.
Both of them seemed to have something on their mind, as if they were back to the way they felt before Zhaoyi came in.
Just as Zhaoyi approached the door, Tang Yan suddenly shook his eyes slightly, raised his head and looked at her back, hesitated again and again, and finally said: "Grand Palace Master, I..."
"Is there anything else?" Zhaoyi stopped in front of the door, with a calm face and a calm tone, but in the luxurious brocade sleeves, the intertwined slender jade hands were already clasped together.
This calmness and this pause at this moment made Tang Yan's eyes stop to speak again.
All kinds of complex emotions were rolling in Tang Yan's heart. He didn't know the reality under the dull atmosphere, and he didn't know the call that Zhaoyi was waiting for. But... all kinds of sounds came to his throat, but they were blocked one after another. All kinds of emotions came to his heart.
They also suppressed her one after another. Finally, Tang Yan lowered his head and showed a forced smile, but his voice was hoarse: "Can I call you sister?"
Zhaoyi slowly closed her eyes, a touch of sourness mixed with a ray of haziness accumulated into a little crystal in the corner of her eyes.
elder sister?
The sound of sister cuts off all illusions.
A sister is called a sister, and she builds a barrier with family affection.
I used to not care about the relationship between the two, I used to hate and avoid the absurdity of the past, I used to... I used to...
Too many things in the past have gained new expectations due to the erosion of time, and too many depressions have changed after fifteen years of being together.
"Yeah." Zhaoyi nodded slightly, as thinly as a mosquito.
But the moment he closed the door, the crystal accumulation in the corners of his eyes silently slipped down his cheeks, moistening the corners of his mouth with a wry smile.
