Taiping Inn

Li Xuandu said: "People of our age, regardless of generation, are all over 20 and under 30 years old. It is said in the martial arts world that there are four outstanding women in our generation, namely Su Yun'an from Cihang Sect, Yu Qingning from Xuannv Sect, Gong Guan from Pinnv Sect, and Qin Su from Wangqing Sect. I have met the first three and have had some contact with them. Only this Miss Qin Su is erratic and rarely sets foot in the Central Plains. So it's a coincidence that we met. Since your surname is also Qin, I guess you might know Qin Su, so I asked this question."

Bai Juan's attitude was obviously different from before. He was much colder: "The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal really has a wide range of friends. If I remember correctly, when the Imperial Capital changed, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal had a big fight with Su Yun'an and Yu Qingning. You injured Yu Qingning's eyes and fell into a lower realm. I didn't expect that you could turn enemies into friends. And the palace official of the Female Sect seemed to have some interest in the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal. It seems that the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal is worthy of being the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal. Not only is his sword invincible, but he is also invincible with women."

Li Xuandu was stunned and said: "We are just ordinary friends."

Bai Juan sneered: "There is no need to explain, you, the lecher."

Li Xuandu was speechless.

When mentioning the change in the Imperial Capital, he suddenly thought of Zhang Baiyue again, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water on his head in the coldest weather, and he felt cold inside and out. At the same time, a huge sense of guilt surged in his heart. He felt sorry for her, and the warm thoughts just now were gone in an instant.

He raised his head slightly and looked at the sky through the gaps between the houses on both sides of the street. It was the sunset, and the gorgeous clouds of fire covered the sky, which was extremely beautiful.

At this moment, Li Xuandu remembered a lot, mostly past events, with joy and sorrow. Some people in the past were still there, and some were no longer there.

Bai Juan heard that Li Xuandu had not spoken for a long time, and felt that she had spoken a little too harshly just now. It was just that she was too shy to let go of her female reserve to admit her mistake, so she said: "Are you angry? A man of honor, but you are so narrow-minded."

Li Xuandu shook his head: "I'm not angry, but I feel that I was indeed wrong just now. I was very sorry for offending the girl with my words."

This time, Li Xuandu seemed to have become the accountant when they first met. Although he was polite, he was unfamiliar.

Somehow, Bai Juan felt a sense of loss in her heart, and said, "You are angry. I shouldn't have called you a lecher, nor should I have slandered the reputation of the two girls in my words. I was wrong, I apologize."

"I'm really not angry." Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "I just thought of the old friend."

Bai Juan had also heard about the change in the imperial capital, so she naturally knew that Li Xuandu almost became Zhang Suqing's son-in-law, and immediately knew who the old friend he was talking about was.

Bai Juan said gently, "The dead are gone, and the living are like this."

Li Xuandu sighed, "I don't have anything to worry about. At that time, I asked my second senior brother to save her, but she didn't want to give up her father and brother to live in vain. Soft on the outside and soft on the inside, people will humiliate you; hard on the outside and hard on the inside, people will destroy you; hard on the outside and soft on the inside, people will despise you; soft on the outside and hard on the inside, people will despise you; soft on the outside and hard on the inside, only then can you become a great man. She is a soft on the outside and hard on the inside woman, and she has her own opinions on everything. I have no way to change what she decides."

Bai Juan comforted softly, "One thing about 'fate' cannot be forced. Even if you are a deity on the Old Xuan List, you cannot force your fate. Mr. Li, you are still young, you can't die alone, you may find another good partner in the future. "

Li Xuandu laughed: "The world is dangerous, and the world is difficult. I don't know if I will ever grow old, and I am afraid that it is a luxury to have a family."

Qin Su stopped talking, but took out a flute from his Xumi treasure, and played it gently on his lips. Li Xuandu didn't know the name of the song, but felt that the sound of the flute was very consistent with the scene in front of him.

After the song, Li Xuandu thanked him.

Bai Juan held the flute with both hands and put it behind her back, shaking her head and saying, "Mr. Li, you don't have to do this."

Li Xuandu sighed, "After all, we have experienced the war together, so you should call me Zifu. If you really don't like this name, you can call me Lao Li. I have a brother named Hu Liang, who was originally a disciple of the Butian Sect. I think you should know him. He likes to call me that. He said that calling me Lao Li makes him feel ten years younger."

Speaking of this, Li Xuandu couldn't help laughing.

Li Xuandu understood very well that he seemed to have old friends everywhere, and he seemed to be a man who everyone in the world knew, but for those who were truly friends with him and could entrust their lives and property to him, he couldn't even use one hand.

Bai Juan said "um" softly.

The two fell into silence again.

After a while, Li Xuandu calmed down a little and changed the topic: "By the way, we just talked about Qin Su, what is your relationship? How come the 'Qi Fang Wang Dao' of 'Tian Dao' Qin Qing is in your possession?"

Bai Juan hesitated for a moment and replied: My father is the second child in the Qin family, Qin Bu Tang is my third uncle, 'Tian Dao' is my eldest uncle, Qin Su is my cousin, and this 'Qi Fang Wang Dao' was given to me by my cousin."

Li Xuandu said "Oh" and did not ask any more questions.

Bai Juan looked at his expression and suddenly asked: "Are you very disappointed?"

"What?" Li Xuandu was stunned for a moment.

Bai Juan stared into his eyes and said word by word: "I ask you, are you feeling very disappointed?"

Li Xuandu asked in confusion: "Where did you get this from?"

Bai Juan whispered: "You said just now. Qin Su, the general of the Jianghu, is comparable to Su Yunxian, Yu Qingning, and the palace official. I think Qin Su... is not bad either, but I am so ugly. You Are you very disappointed?”

Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "Things are not."

Bai Juan didn't believe it and turned around: "You say women are right and wrong, but men are the same. It's not the same when they meet a beautiful woman, but if this woman is not beautiful, it's not the same. Isn't it right?"

Li Xuan said helplessly: "I really don't mean that, I'm just curious."

Bai Juan snorted and said quietly, "Whether you are disappointed or not, I am born like this anyway. I can't compare to Qin Su, or even more so than the palace official, Yu Qingning, and Su Yunba."

Li Xuandu laughed and said, "Why do you have to compare with them? You are you, and they are them. Could it be that if Yan Feiqing marrys Su Yun's mother, I will marry someone who is not inferior to Su Yun's mother?"

As soon as he said that, Li Xuan realized that something was wrong, because this was too ambiguous, as if he had already married Bai Juan and was comparing with Yan Feiqing. Sure enough, when Bai Juan heard this, although he turned his back to Li Xuandu, he could clearly see that from his neck to his ears, he said ashamedly, "What are you... what are you saying?!"

Li Xuan knew that he had made a mistake and hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that, I mean... I mean..."

After a moment, Bai Juan turned around, the blush had faded, and she asked, "What are you talking about?"

Li Xuandu coughed lightly and said seriously: "I mean, how is your injury? I have fought with Han Yaoyue before, and he was injured, right? Don't hold it hard."

Bai Juan said expressionlessly, "It doesn't matter, it's just a minor injury."

While talking, the two of them stood up together and looked at the blood-red setting sun. The sky was getting dimmer. Large areas of fire clouds seemed to be embedded with a layer of gold edge, but the layer of gold edge was gradually dimming, and then the two of them were at the same time. He lowered his head, look at me, look at you, look at you, and sighed in unison.

There happened to be someone walking by the way. Because of his face, he couldn't help but look at the two of them. Li Xuan simply leaned against the wall, wrapped his arms around his chest, and asked, "Why did Madam sigh?"

Bai Juan didn't care about this anymore: "Then... why are you sighing in Zifu?"

Li Xuandu said, "The road ahead is confused, I don't know where to go, and I don't know when it will end."

He looked at Bai Juan and asked, "Where are you?"

Bai Juan said, "I don't know why I sigh. Even when I see you sigh, I suddenly want to sigh."

Li Xuandu laughed at this answer.

For some reason, at this moment, he felt that his mind had never been so peaceful and peaceful.

When Qin Daofang walked out of the clinic with crutches, he saw such a scene. Two young men and women leaned side by side against the wall, looking at the last ray of setting sun between heaven and earth. Both of them had faint smiles on their faces. .

Qin Daofang did not disturb the picture, and after indicating that the old doctor would not have to see him off, he also looked up at the setting sun.
