Jiuju didn't take them back to the Purple Bamboo Forest, let alone fly to any distant place to take refuge, they stayed in the dwellings in Bucket Lane in Chang'an City.Where there are more people, it is easier to hide their traces.The closer you are to the enemy, the easier it is to be ignored.Jiuju said so.Su Qiuchi was still worried about what Li Zhun said, and he was afraid of causing trouble to his family, so he didn't dare to go back to Su Mansion immediately, planning to go home after a while to make sure that there was nothing to do.Lan Ting also followed, taking care of their daily life.On the third day of living in Bucket Lane, Li Zhun and Su Qiuchi, who went out in disguise to breathe, found that there were many refugees in Chang'an City who had fled back from the border, all of them were exhausted and scarred, and the children in the women's arms were all skinny, and some of them had broken hands and feet, crying incessantly.Li Zhun and Su Qiuchi looked depressed, and after giving them all the volume on their bodies, the two of them were speechless all the way and returned depressed.Not long after, the news of the rebellion of the 24 Eastern Turkic chieftains spread throughout Chang'an, and wars broke out at the border passes.What came again was the battle report of the Tang army's successive defeats.The situation was critical, and the imperial court re-levied heavy troops, and the emperor followed the advice of Empress Wu and led an army of 300,000 to counterattack the Eastern Turks.Today, the Mid-Autumn Festival.Despite the raging war in the border area, Chang'an City is still full of lights and joy.This night, they heard two pieces of news: first, Pei Xingjian's army will send troops to the Turks tomorrow.Second, the emperor sent a large group of men and horses to surround the Su Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion where Su Qiuchi's grandfather was located, saying that Turkic spies had been discovered in these two places.Lanting made a large table of delicacies, and Jiu Ju poured wine for Li Zhun and Su Qiuchi, the two enemies, but this meal was unusually quiet and did not say a word.Jiuju was also very silent, and after scribbling a few glasses of wine, he said: "The Mid-Autumn Festival, there should always be some festivals to celebrate.I've got a shadow puppet show for you, so come out and see it.After reading it, what are you going to do, please. ”Su Qiuchi and Li Zhun put down the dishes and chopsticks and looked at him in a daze.In the courtyard outside, a curtain has already been set up, two shadow puppeteers are sorting out the puppets and things that are as thin as cicada wings in the box, and two musicians are fiddling with the erhu and recorder.Su Qiuchi and Li Huai had never seen this play before.The content of the lecture is also fresh in the heavenly realm, there is a fairy child who specializes in brewing wine, only because he accidentally killed the snow civet cat who stole the immortal wine to drink, and attracted the revenge of the owner of the beast, who is in charge of the entry and exit of the four gates of the heavenly realm.In order to get angry with the raccoon cat he raised, he actually carried the immortals of the heavenly realm on his back, and beat this fairy child from the monster back to its original form, not to mention, he also wanted to throw it into the Dan furnace to destroy it completely, but fortunately he was stopped by the strong golden armor god who was passing by guarding the northern heavenly gate.This golden armor god is lowly, and the best thing in the cup, he doesn't have a few friends, but the fairy boy knows that he is loyal and upright, although he is reckless, but he has a good heart, so he often divides some immortal wine to satisfy his cravings.The Golden Armor God reported the crime of Shougu Xingjun to the Emperor of Heaven, and the Emperor was furious, but thinking of the face of the Queen of Heaven, he only punished his brother-in-law for thinking about it behind closed doors.Although the fairy child avoided a catastrophe, the golden armor god did not have such luck.On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Golden Armor God was drunk again, and when he was sleeping soundly under the gate of heaven, Shougu Xingjun waited for an opportunity to come out, and actually pushed him down to the mortal world, not to mention the six reincarnations, and also cast a spell to split the Yuan Spirit of the Golden Armor God in half, vowing that this eye-catching person would never return to heaven.Later, the crime was revealed, and the Emperor of Heaven ignored the pleas of the Queen of Heaven and expelled the Guardian Star Monarch into reincarnation, and he was no longer allowed to set foot in the Heavenly Realm for half a step.And the golden armor god who was divided into two halves of yin and yang was also reincarnated as a man and a woman, living in the red dust, and the world cycled.The fairy boy practiced painstakingly for many years, and when he became a wine-making immortal official who could take charge of his own affairs, he searched for a pair of men and women reincarnated in the golden armor god in the earthly world in the name of searching for wine-making raw materials.However, just because the Golden Armor God accidentally fell into the mortal world and did not have a fallen heavenly seal on his body, it was not easy to find him.The immortal official has been going around the world for thousands of years, and he knows that as long as he finds a pair of men and women reincarnated by the Golden Armor God in the Mid-Autumn Festival nine hundred and ninety years later, and takes out half of the Yin and Yang Yuan Spirits from them, and merges them into one, the Golden Armor God can return to the heavenly realm and resume his priesthood.This shadow puppet ended when the immortal official met a couple of men and women in a mountain called "Cuiwei".The shadow puppet troupe was dismissed, and in the courtyard of the Quartet, only Jiuju, Su Qiuchi, and Li Zhun remained, as well as the sickle-like moon in the sky.Su Qiuchi and Li Zhun stared blankly at the location of the curtain just now, as if the shadow puppet was still continuing."
Really," the two of them said in unison again."
It took me nearly a thousand years to find you in the gambling den."
Jiuju's blue hair shimmered with a strange brilliance in the night, "It can be seen that I won." ”"Where can there be such a thing" Li Zhun patted his face vigorously and looked at Su Qiuchi, "Me and him, each is half of the Yuan Spirit of the Heavenly God" Jiu Jue nodded and said, "Come back to Heaven with me to resume your duties, Mighty Golden Armor God." ”So saying, he stretched out his hand to them."
Wait" Su Qiuchi suddenly blocked his hand and jumped to the side like stepping on a poisonous snake, "I didn't plan to go back to Heaven with you." ”Nine stunned."
I don't know what the Golden Armor God is, I only know that my name is Su Qiuchi, my father and grandfather, and hundreds of people in my Su family, and now they are being put on the neck with a knife.This must be the ghost of the martial queen.It's impossible for me to ignore their life or death, and what kind of heaven-breaking court and god-breaking immortal will be with you" Su Qiuchi had never spoken in such a serious and cautious tone, "What I've been thinking about tonight is only one question, and that is how to save my family and water and fire."
Nothing else, I'm not interested at all. ”Li Zhun looked at Su Qiuchi with admiration for the first time, and said, "It doesn't matter if what is said in that play is true or not.What I do know is that neither the past nor the future matters to me.The past has become a given, it is useless to think too much, the future has not happened, it is useless to think too much, what I value is only my present.What I can grasp is now.Neither the past me, nor the future me, is as good as the present me.Jiuju, your kindness, I understand it. ”She smiled brightly at him, "I've never been more sure of what I'm going to do.If we can, can we be that shadow puppet show, it's just a shadow puppet show" "The past me, the future me, are not as good as the current me" Jiu Ju muttered and repeated Li Zhun's words.Li Zhun and Su Qiuchi, who finally had a real tacit understanding in their lives, glanced at each other and walked towards the gate without hesitation.At this time, Lan Ting suddenly appeared, holding two glasses of wine in his hands, blocking in front of the two of them."
Little ghost, don't you want to drink" Su Qiuchi raised his eyebrows."
Serve your master well in the future, he is a good man.Or good fairies. ”Li Zhun whispered to Lan Ting, and the two of them picked up the two glasses of wine that reflected the night.However, Jiu Ju stepped up with an arrow and knocked over their wine glasses, and the two of them were stunned, he turned his back and walked towards the house, and only threw one word at them: "Go" When the sky was getting lighter, Lan Ting stood in the room where the candle flame was extinguished, looked at the tall figure standing in front of the window, and asked: "As long as the two of them die, the Yuan Spirit of the Golden Armor God will be able to escape, and you can take it back to Heaven."
Why don't you let them drink the poisoned wine, this is the only way to get the Golden Armor God back.Now that you miss it, there is no more chance Alas, you have waited for nine hundred and ninety years, when I saw that you were so close to them, I was worried that you would not be able to do it.Sure enough," he whispered, his voice extremely hoarse, "What the two of them just said reminded me that I seemed to have made a mistake. ”"What is the mistake" "He is Su Qiuchi now, she is Li Zhun now, whether it is the Golden Armor God or not, what does it matter" The first rays of morning light on the horizon caressed Jiuju's handsome but slightly pale face, "The important thing is the present, not the past, nor the future."
Such a simple truth, I only now understand. ”Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt dizzy, his body was shaky, and everything in front of him turned into blurry smoke and dust."
Master" Lan Ting exclaimed and rushed forward.t1706231537:
