2, bad news
One year later
Su Ling shuttled through the clouds happily, occasionally blowing a prank to blow away the floating white clouds.
I don't know if she is in a good mood. The results of alchemy in this year are very gratifying. It was expected that only about three Dujie Dan could be refined, but five were refined in one furnace, and at most four of her could be absolutely enough, so she exchanged the extra Du Jie Dan with Qingfengmen, who is good at Dandao, to increase longevity. Dan. In the world of practitioners, not everyone is a successful practitioner. There are always some people who can't practice because of their talent and physique. If these people are the direct descendants of important people in the family or sect, someone will find ways to increase their longevity. However, the longevity of ordinary people is not so easy to increase. Even if it is a longevity elixir, each can only increase the life expectancy of one Jiazi, and a person can only eat three at most, more than three. Even if it is used as a meal, it will have no effect.
In comparison, the elixir is much more precious. This elixir can double the real yuan in a short time without side effects, so that the elixir can survive the baptism of the disaster, because several kinds of medicinal materials have been extinct in the world of cultivation, and the elixir is priceless. Even in Qingfengmen, the inventory of elixir will not exceed ten. In the market, a Dujiedan can be sold at a sky-high price. Of course, the value of a crossing elixir and three longevity elixir is far from the same. In addition to these three longevity elixirs prepared for Zhou Qianyun, she also has a lot of messy elixir that she can't even figure out.
Su Ling came to the secular world precisely because of collecting the medicinal herbs needed to refine the elixir. As a result, she didn't know the arrogant Zhou Qianyun. From noisy to knowing and falling in love, she finally made an appointment for this year.
Now that the one-year period has arrived, Su Ling can't wait to see her lover. Even if she is scolded by him, she feels extremely happy.
Chasing the breath left on the hairpin, she flew all the way to the capital. Zhou Qianyun was the direct son of Zhou Tong, the marshal of the army holding heavy troops, and also the younger brother of Zhou Qianfeng, the minister of the Ministry of War. At this time, he was also a matter of course in the capital, and Su Ling did not find anything strange. Although the valley they met is rare, in fact, it is not very far from the capital. It has been a long time. It is just that there is a natural maze at the mouth of the valley, so that ordinary people can't enter the valley at all.
In order not to disturb the people in the world, Su Ling fell into an inconspicuous corner of the capital, and then removed his invisibility. Shi Shiran walked from the corner to the bustling capital street.
As soon as Su Ling, who had been practicing in the deep mountains for more than 2,000 years, came to the street market, she was shocked by all kinds of noisy voices. She had never seen such a bustling situation at all, so the poor practitioner fled and walked in the direction of Zhoufu.
I don't know how many wrongful roads I have walked, Su Ling finally walked to the big house with a Zhoufu plaque. Unexpectedly, the door of Zhou Mansion was open, and the door was covered with white silk cloth. Many servants in white greeted all kinds of people at the door. Su Ling, who had never seen a secular funeral, didn't know what it meant at all. Since the door was open, she walked in generously.
Because Su Ling was wearing white clothes and walked into Zhou's house at the same time with a very decently dressed middle-aged man, the servant at the door did not stop her from entering except for being shocked by her beauty for a long time.
Su Ling's good mood turned out of the wall. After seeing the plaque in the main hall and the coffin behind the plaque, it disappeared. Her longing lover's name is engraved on the spiritual position at this moment, but her body is lying in the cold coffin.
"No!" After the initial shock, Su Ling let out a desperate roar, and tears broke down from her eyes.
She knew that the man in the coffin must be the person she loved with all her feelings, and she also understood that the arrangement around her was actually doing funerals for her lover, but she just didn't understand why she was separated from her lover in just one year.
Su Ling rushed to the altar and looked blankly at the familiar name on the spiritual position. This name, which had been said countless times, actually made her feel far away from the sky at this moment. Even if she tried her best to reach out her hand, she could not touch it.
"Why is this? Why? Why?" Su Ling shouted to her lover in pain: "Qianyun, get up, I'm back. We agreed that in just one year, I will come back to you, and then we will never be separated again. Qianyun, you can't do this to me. I came back by keeping the agreement, but why didn't you keep the promise?
"Qianyun, as you said, since you hold my hand, you won't let go all your life. I'm here. Why did you let go of your hand? You said that I have been alone for too long. Although we are destined to stay together for a hundred years, you also want me to use eternal time to miss the hundred years we have been together. Why did you just give me a year's memory and leave me? You said you would marry me when I came back. In order to make a promise to you, I put down everything and rushed over. Why did you break the contract instead?
"Why! Why..."
Su Ling shouted hoarsely, and tears rolled down and fell on the altar.
The mourning guests around and the family members in the mourning hall were shocked by Su Ling's painful shouts. Fortunately, Su Ling had sealed most of her mana when she landed on the secular world. Otherwise, with her cultivation that she was about to cross the disaster, with these shouts alone, she could shake the whole capital to death.
"Are you a Suling girl?" Zhou Qianfeng, dressed in white mourning clothes, took two steps forward and said to Su Ling, who was crying bitterly, "My second brother often mentioned you before his death. Even before he died, he still read your name."
Su Ling looked up at the talking man. In her tearful eyes, she felt that he and Qian Yun were similar to Qian Yun's eyebrows, but she did not have the unruly temperament of Qian Yun. For her, she could only be regarded as a stranger.
Zhou Qianfeng sighed, "The second brother is also very affectionate to the girl. A year ago, because the emperor intended to marry Princess Jin Shu to him, he reluctantly agreed to lead the army in order to refuse marriage. He often said to me that in this world, you are the only girl Suling who can get what he really loves. Except for you, all the other women are just dung in his eyes.
"What happened this year? How could Qianyun die?" Su Ling barely straightened up and asked.
Before Zhou Qianfeng could answer, a woman laughed crazily outside the mourning hall: "Well, Zhou Qianyun, I think highly of you and let my father recruit you to be your son-in-law, and you dare to resist the order for this woman and are willing to go to the battlefield to fight. Well, I can't get you, and others can't get it. You died well, you deserve it!"
The people of the Zhou family were originally in grief, and their bodies trembled slightly when they were angry by the woman's rude words, but the other party was a royal princess. Even if the Zhou family was in power, there was no difference between the king and ministers, and there was nothing they could do with this woman.
Zhou Qianfeng couldn't help saying, "Princess Jin Shu, it's a big deal to die. My second brother has died in the battlefield and died for the country. Please don't say bad words to hurt his heroic spirit."
"Why, he won't let me say if he can do it." Princess Jin Shu stood in front of the mourning hall and shouted, "If he had been my son-in-law obediently at the beginning, why would he go to the west of Sichuan to suppress the rebellion? How could he lie here coldly? He had long been warm and soft. I didn't know how free and comfortable he was. He asked for all this, and he deserved it.
