That's what I'm looking forward to
In the evening, Jiang Jingyuan went directly to the library - the palace maids around Jiang Jingsui said that Jiang Jingjian was there.
Outside the library, Jiang Jingyuan looked at the purple-clothed youth standing in front of him with confusion.
If she took a step to the left, he would take a step to the left as well. If she took a step to the right, he would take a step to the right as well.
“…”
Jiang Jingyuan was speechless. Looking at the young man in front of her who raised his chin proudly, she laughed in her heart - don't think she doesn't know what he is thinking.
wrong!
Jiang Jingzong did this because he knew she understood!
Jiang Jingyuan's face was tense, and he snorted in his heart. It just didn't go his way, so he turned around and left - Jiang Jingjian or something, he could go back by himself anyway.
“Ehhhh?!”
Jiang Jingzong was dumbfounded when he saw her leave decisively. He hurriedly followed her: "Don't go, don't go! If Jiang Jingjian doesn't see you when he comes out, he'll be mad at me!"
In the twilight, the girl continued to walk back unmoved, just glancing at him: You will suffer the consequences!
Jiang Jingzong looked at the light yellow figure walking further and further away with a dazed expression.
I originally just wanted Jiang Jingyuan to say a few more words, but I didn't expect that this kid has such a bad temper.
That’s good now, Jiang Jingjian will definitely not forgive him… The young man in purple thought, tears in his heart.
He opened his mouth and stretched out his hand towards the ruthless figure. He kept this posture for a long time and stood there in despair.
He began to waver inwardly.
In fact, he also wanted to leave, but when Jiang Jingjian came out and didn't see Jiang Jingyuan, he would definitely guess what happened from his words. He still wanted to stay and make some excuses for himself...
“What are you doing…?”
As his thoughts raced, Jiang Jingzong was startled when he suddenly heard a question from behind him.
Subconsciously turning around, he saw Jiang Jingsui in a green robe. He breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hands repeatedly: "It's okay, it's okay."
Jiang Jinghui looked at him with gentle eyes for a while, then suddenly realized: "You pissed Xiao Yuan off."
Jiang Jingzong almost jumped up in anxiety: "No!"
Jiang Jinghui didn't argue with him. He just glanced at his flushed face with a hint of sympathy and said soothingly, "Don't be afraid. It's just a beating. It will be over soon."
Jiang Jingzong suddenly felt a pain in his teeth and grimaced.
"Then..." Jiang Jingzong saw that he couldn't hide it, so he smiled at him ingratiatingly and said, "Then big brother, can you..."
"cannot."
Jiang Jingsui decisively refused.
Jiang Jingzong almost vomited blood, "Why?!"
"You're the most noisy among all these people, so it's better to give you a beating."
Jiang Jinghui smiled at him gently, but the words he said sounded extremely cold in Jiang Jingzong's ears.
Jiang Jingzong covered his heart with one hand and looked at him in disbelief, not understanding why his good brother was so cruel to him alone.
The young man's body, shrunken from years of martial arts training, looked especially frail at this moment, swaying feebly in the wind. His lips moved for a long time, his face flushed with anxiety, and finally he could only utter, "Heaven wants to kill me!"
"Hello--"
"What are you doing over there?!"
The last straw that broke the camel's back was Jiang Jingjian walking out of the library, but what made Jiang Jingzong even more heartbroken was Jiang Jingsui, who looked at him with sympathy and walked to the side without hesitation for fear of blocking his way.
Standing outside the library, looking from afar, the dusk sky and the purple-clad Jiang Jing seemed to match each other quite well—
In front of a sky that was orange in the center, gradually fading to purple, a young man, wearing a flamboyant, luxurious deep purple robe, fluttered gently in the breeze. He stood quietly, his expression lonely. He tilted his head slightly upward, gazing at the sky, his silver-gray eyes shimmering with a golden glow like the setting sun...
The evening wind is bleak.
The young man turned his head stiffly and gave Jiang Jingjian an ugly smile that looked like he was about to cry.
“……?”
Jiang Jingjian's eyes twitched violently.
What the hell is this guy doing?!
However, he didn't have the energy to pay attention to this person. He just looked around and asked doubtfully, "Where's Xiao Yuan?"
He didn't notice that Jiang Jingzong's smile became even uglier after hearing this, but the smile on Jiang Jinghui's face became more obvious.
"Uh, listen to me first..."
Jiang Jingzong covered his face and decided to tell the truth in a tactful way.
Jiang Jingjian glanced at him impatiently: "Wait a minute, first tell me where Xiao Yuan went."
After hearing these words, Jiang Jingzong's heart completely died. He fell straight back and closed his eyes peacefully.
Snap——
Jiang Jingzong lay flat on the cold ground, his eyes still tightly closed, his hands covering his face.
bring it on!
He is all ready!
The pain he had imagined did not happen. In the darkness, Jiang Jingzong heard a faint childish voice, as if it came from right above him.
"Fourth Brother..."
Jiang Jingzong's eyes snapped open, and what he saw was a young girl, slightly bent over, facing the sunlight. She was wearing a light, goose-yellow dress with crescent-shaped white accents. She stood on the stone floor beside him.
The orange sunlight fell on the side of her face and the tip of her nose, and the side of her black hair was dyed golden and bright white under the dazzling sunlight...
Seeing no response, she tilted her head slightly, and a thin braid with tender green tassels fell from her shoulder, floating slowly in the air.
"Fourth brother."
Jiang Jingyuan's face was expressionless, but a hint of sympathy gradually appeared in his eyes: "You fell on your head."
It's not an illusion!
The purple robe bloomed like a riot of flowers on the gray ground, and the boy lying flat on his back instantly burst into tears. In his eyes, Jiang Jingyuan seemed like a god descended from heaven, redeeming him with such a calm and effortless expression.
"Little Yuan! Little Yuan!!"
Jiang Jingzong jumped up and rushed over crying.
Jiang Jingyuan didn't move.
But the young man in blue, who had approached at some point, raised his hand slowly and gently pulled her aside...
"Stop making trouble, you just pissed off Xiao Yuan."
Jiang Jinghui looked at the purple-clothed youth in front of him gently, as if he was looking at a naughty child.
Jiang Jingzong froze instantly.
He once again put on a half-crying smile, and turned his head to look at Jiang Jingjian who was walking towards him.
Jiang Jingjian raised his beautiful eyebrows, curved the corners of his mouth, and looked at him with a smile: "Really?"
The tone was gentler than ever before.
Jiang Jingzong quickly shook his head like a rattle: "That's not true! Look, isn't Xiao Yuan right here?"
At this moment, his mind was working rapidly, and he finally came to a conclusion: Since Jiang Jingyuan came back, it meant that she didn't care and would not pursue the matter.
This means that what he said would not make Jiang Jingyuan unhappy.
So his most urgent task now is to fool Jiang Jingjian!!!
"Listen to me..."
The young man in white smiled kindly: "Okay, go ahead."
One goes back, the other goes forward.
The two teenagers were quarreling so loudly that they completely forgot that there was Jiang Jingsui who was fanning the flames.
Jiang Jingyuan silently glanced at the young man in blue clothes who was smiling beside him, and quietly moved his feet.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jinghui caught him red-handed!
Under the dim sky, the young man in green unconsciously stroked the white jade flute hanging from his waist with his hands. He pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, blinked his eyelashes, and the corners of his eyes quickly turned red. He whispered:
“It’s okay.
"I know Jiang Jingzong has been with you for much longer than I have. It's okay for you to be closer to him. It's okay for you to talk to him but not to me. I understand..."
ah?
Jiang Jingyuan's eyes were dull.
She seemed to hear a series of "It's okay" running through her mind quickly.
He kept murmuring "It's okay," but Jiang Jingsui's eyes quickly misted over, and his blinking eyelashes were faintly covered with water droplets... He held back his sobs and tried to calm his voice: "It's okay, I won't embarrass Xiao Yuan."
"elder brother!"
Jiang Jingyuan's head hurt from all the scolding, so he interrupted him hastily.
Jiang Jinghui looked up in surprise, his eyes sparkling, and tears fell from his lower eyelashes as he moved.
But the next moment, he saw the coldness on Jiang Jingyuan's face, and lowered his head in disappointment and guilt.
"It's really okay, Xiao Yuan, don't force it. That's not what I meant..."
No--
That's what you mean!
Jiang Jingyuan screamed in her heart with an expressionless face. Her decision to keep silent before was absolutely right. Everyone knew how to deal with her.
She cried in her heart, her brother was still the best.
Jiang Jingjian, I didn't expect you to be the most innocent one among so many people...
"My eldest brother is doing well." Jiang Jingyuan said with a stern face.
Jiang Jinghui blushed when he heard this. He raised his hand to wipe his face and eyes, tears sliding across his white fingertips.
His voice trembled slightly: "Really?!"
"Really." Jiang Jingyuan nodded with a stern face.
Jiang Jingsui was happy.
A gentle smile appeared on his lips, and he took Jiang Jingyuan's hand and walked towards the two people, one in white and one in purple.
He had a helpless expression on his face that said, "You're so ignorant!" and said, "Stop making trouble. Xiao Yuan is starving from waiting so long!"
Jiang Jingyuan was numb, but she didn't say that.
The two who were making noises stopped what they were doing and responded in unison:
"Let's go back."
…………
I rested peacefully for half a month.
When Jiang Jingyuan woke up in the morning of that day, he felt that he could use the "Teng Snake" mark again.
She thought about it for a long time.
The drawbacks of the Teng Snake Mark were obvious and fatal. She had traveled here to find a solution to this problem. She couldn't use it frequently. Moreover, many times, even if she used all her strength, she still couldn't use it once.
The experience she had once experienced during her journey through time made her realize that it was impossible for her to find that thing safely. Her future was full of dangers - and she couldn't hide, but had to actively step into the vortex!
It was impossible for her to stay in the palace for five or six years and do nothing.
She now urgently needs a protective device.
But--
Even if she went to find Jiang Jingjian, the magical instruments he could bring her would not be good enough. She also couldn't just go to Rong Hou or the Rong family out of the blue. That would be like having the life to take it but not the life to use it!
Currently, the only magical weapon she can access is the one under the pool, so she can only focus on this breakthrough.
Tonight is a good opportunity——
Jiang Jingjian left the palace in the morning to practice with her master and came back half a month later, which gave her enough time to make various responses.
Although Jiang Jingyuan felt that she would be courting death if she relied on her own strength without the "Teng Snake" mark, she still put a bunch of swords, pills, and talismans that Jiang Jingjian had given her in the past into the space in the bracelet.
The night is dark and the moon is bright in the sky.
The surface of the pool water shimmers in the moonlight, quiet and peaceful.
"Your Highness Jing Yuan, do you really want to go..."
Jiang Jingqian, who was pulled in as a cover, looked worried. He really couldn't understand why Jiang Jingyuan ran into the pool even though he had already been examined by the National Master.
"There's something at the bottom of the pool." Jiang Jingyuan didn't hide it.
Jiang Jingqian was secretly anxious. No matter how important the thing was, Jiang Jingyuan couldn't be allowed to take risks!
Jiang Jingyuan saw his disapproval and asked calmly, "If I gave you a chance to go to the Wu Clan's territory, but it was very dangerous, would you go?"
This is why it is Jiang Jingqian and not Jiang Jingmang who is here tonight.
Jiang Jingqian knew clearly that he just lacked an opportunity to cleanse his marrow. As long as he waited for that day, he would rise to the top.
He clearly knows that his future is promising.
He is a relatively well-developed person, and his inner anxiety can be soothed by just a word of recognition from others - there is no despair in his heart.
But Jiang Jingmang was different. She waited for a long time, holding on to a hope. Everything she saw with her eyes open struck at her fragile heart, and even when she closed her eyes, she was still sleeping in pain - day after day, year after year, she was desperate.
Jiang Jingmang couldn't stand any disturbance right now. Simple words couldn't dispel her inner anxiety.
But Jiang Jingyuan had no way to solve her predicament. Since he couldn't help her, he shouldn't bother her too much...
Beside the quiet Tianshui Pond under the night sky.
"I want to go!"
"I want to go, I must go!"
Jiang Jingqian blurted out.
His eyes were burning, and the raging fire of his persistence seemed to ignite the bleak night.
If there was such an opportunity, he would definitely go. Or rather, he was looking forward to such an opportunity day and night.
That's what he was looking forward to!
It is better to die a good death than to die a good death...
He thought that the trapped life for more than ten years had already corroded him, but it was not until his subconscious answer at this time that he realized that he had not given up.
The bright moonlight sprinkled on the girl's black clothes. Jiang Jingyuan looked at the dark pool of water that contained a mysterious and strange feeling, and said calmly:
"That's what I'm looking forward to."
