Chapter Twenty-Eight: Befan City's Heart-to-Heart Under the Moon
After coming up from the underground river, the desolation of the desert actually made people feel a little relieved.
The wind and sand are still raging, and you can't see the distance.
Duan Si continued to hold on to the stone, slowly trying to stand up, and Qi Xing was going to help her.
"It's okay, I can do it myself. Duan Sixu smiled and gently dodged Qi Xing's hand.
But as soon as he stood up, his eyes were blurry.
It was a weakness in his body and he fell into Qi Xing's arms.
Qi Xing was taken aback, and hurriedly probed Duan Sixu's pulse, and only after making sure that there was no problem did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Rest. Qi Xing whispered, pulled up the mask around his neck, picked up Duan Sixu horizontally, and walked into the wind and sand.
It was very difficult to walk in the desert, not to mention that both of them were injured.
After walking with difficulty, Qi Xing squinted his eyes and saw the figure of a human horse galloping towards this side in the dusk ahead.
"Let's go!" was Lingxi's voice, and she jumped off her horse and ran over and shouted.
"Si Xu, this is?" Ling Xi frowned and asked when he saw Duan Sixu being held by Qi Xing.
"The shoulder and calf injuries were severe. Qi Xing worried.
Ling Xi looked at Duan Sixu's injury, relaxed his eyebrows slightly, and said, "It's okay, I'm here." ”
"Brother Qi, take Si Xu, let's go back to Fan City first. ”
"The sand is coming, it's too dangerous. Xiao Ji rode over and said.
Qi Xing nodded, picked up Duan Sixu, turned over and jumped on the horse.
Several people flapped the reins and galloped in the direction of Fan Cheng.
And everything behind him was once again buried under the wind and sand.
I don't know how long it will be before someone comes here, but that's another story, of course.
After a few people returned to Changyan Mansion, Lingxi didn't stop for a moment.
Instead, he continued to treat Duan Si's injuries, but Qi Xing was still covered in blood and scars, standing by the bed.
Ling Xi couldn't bear to say: "Si Xu, basically stabilized." ”
"Because there is too much blood lost, you can relax, and I will recuperate for her. ”
Qi Xing nodded: "Hmm." ”
Ling Xi saw that he had no intention of leaving, so he smiled helplessly: "Look at you, you are covered in blood." ”
"These injuries have not been treated. ”
"I'm fine, her. Qi Xing glanced at himself, frowned and said.
"This is the spirit grass ointment, you go to the bath and wash it, and apply the ointment to the wound. ”
"I'll take care of her here until you come back. Lingxi Zhengse.
Qi Xing thought about it, took the spirit grass paste and left the room.
Ling Xi looked at Qi Xing's back and said in a low voice: "This kind of bad fate is really distressing. ”
Five days later, under Qi Xing's careful waiting and care day and night, Duan Si woke up.
That is, it is also time to part.
On this day, at the gate of Changyan Mansion, Xiao Ji walked in front of Duan Sixu.
patted her on the shoulder and said, "Duan Sixu, we'll see you again, right!"
"Brother Xiao, remember, you still owe me a pot of good wine. ”
"Hahaha! There will be a date later!" said Duan Sixu, who stepped on his horse and ran out of the city with Qi Xing.
Lingxi looked at the two who had left and said to Xiaoji, "You didn't tell her?"
"Telling her will only add to the sadness. Xiao Ji whispered.
"Are you really going to leave with Huo Dong?" asked Lingxi.
"During this trip to the desert, I finally understood Huo Dong's heart for me. ”
"Besides, his enchantment has something to do with me, how can I abandon him!" Xiao Ji said.
Lingxi brushed his hair, turned around and walked back to the Changyan Mansion.
She understands that some people will always go to the place where they will never meet again.
At sunset, Qi Xing and Duan Sixu sat on the edge of the cliff of Shenglin Peak.
The warm sunset set the faces of the two of them pink, and the early summer wind was still a little cool.
Soon, the crescent moon slowly rose, and the surroundings fell into silence.
As far as the eye can see, there are occasionally a few points of smoke and lights flickering.
Surrounded by the singing of nightingales near and far, there is always some refreshing fragrance of flowers.
"Thank you that day, when you were in the underground river. Duan Sixu spoke first.
Qi Xing was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "It should be so." ”
Duan Sixu wanted to say something more, but he didn't say it.
Duan Sixu knew that in the underground dark river, the sentence when life and death were at stake: Then die together.
It's Qi Xing's blurt out, but it's this subconscious affection.
The last barrier of her heart was completely shattered.
However, the identities of the two, even if the sky collapses, there will be no change.
The moonlight sprinkled on the two of them, and Duan Sixu didn't think much about it.
She showed eighteen heavenly machines in her hands, and when she looked closely, it was just a very ordinary carved square wooden box.
Occasionally, there is a faint scent.
"It's such an important thing, but the material is ordinary mahogany. ”
"There must be another mystery. Qi Xing said.
Duan Si thought about it, nodded and said, "What you see is slightly the same. ”
I saw that Duan Sixu waved his palm, smashed the wooden box, and a piece of jade fell out.
Duan Sixu picked up the jade piece, only to find that this jade piece was actually folded, a total of eighteen pieces!
She glanced at Qi Xing beside her, and then wanted to open the first piece.
But he found that he didn't do it with some effort, Duan Sixu touched the surface of the jade piece and said, "There are ornaments on it." ”
Qi Xing took the jade piece from Duan Sixu's hand, looked at it carefully and said, "This is not a decoration, it is a Southern script. ”
"Nan script?" Duan Si continued to wonder.
"Yes, and it should be the area of the Southern Regions Flower Plain. Qi Xing said.
"How is it so accurate?" Duan Si continued.
"I once read a book of Buddhism in the Southern Regions at Matsuma Temple. ”
"It was written in the southern script, and in order to be able to understand it, I went to Huayuan City alone. Qi Xing said.
Duan Sixu nodded and said, "That's it, what is the word on this?"
It's the word Hanahara. Qi Xing looked at Duan Sixu and said.
"In this case, you need to go to Hanahara. ”
"Only then can we find a way to open the first jade piece. Duan Si continued.
"Now, that's the only way to go. Qi Xing said.
"Huayuan City is the birthplace of the Southern civilization and the oldest city in the Southern Regions. ”
"It is still known as the southland for eight miles out of the city. ”
"There are three escort city tea boys, Gu Nanhe and righteous spirits. Qi Xing continued.
Duan Si continued to put away the eighteen pieces of Heavenly Machine Jade and said, "Let's leave tomorrow and go to the main city of Huayuan first." ”
"These eighteen heavenly machines, why do you sacrifice your life to get them?" Qi Xing glanced at Duan Sixu beside him and asked softly.
Her flawless, stunningly beautiful side face looked so weak.
"Qi Xing, what are you living for?" Duan Sixu did not immediately answer Qi Xing's question.
It's just that he looked down at the abyss under his feet, which was bottomless darkness, and asked rhetorically.
Qi Xing didn't answer Duan Sixu's question, he didn't want to answer, he just didn't have an answer.
He didn't know what he was living for, and in the eyes of the world, he was a solitary monk.
He is indifferent, but decisive in killing, he seems to be weak, but he has a magic trick that makes demons frightened.
However, these are the things that he is in the world, and it is fate that has arranged for him to do things.
He was content with his fate and did not dare to change.
"It's the first time I've seen such a beautiful moonlight. ”
"For three hundred years, I have not stopped for a moment, sitting under the moon like this, drinking. ”
"Before the moon before the flowers, poetry is right, even if it is coarse tea and light rice. ”
"For me, it's all luxury. Duan Sixu raised his head and took a sip of wine, looked at Qi Xing beside him with a smile and said.
Qi Xing has always been a good listener, and he has very few words.
Duan Sixu felt very relaxed, thinking that she had been alone for hundreds of years!
"Why don't you stop?" Qi Xing asked.
"Because of fate, it has placed me in an endless cycle of reincarnation, tormented over and over again, and never tired of it. ”
"Once, my life was not up to me. ”
"But now, not anymore!"
"As long as I live, fate is nothing, it slashes me, and I stab me!" Duan Si continued.
Immediately, Duan Sixu turned his back to Qi Xing and called in a low voice, "Qi Xing." ”
I saw that she unbuttoned a little of her shirt and exposed her back a little.
Qi Xing was just about to avoid him, but he was stunned by the three traces above Duan Sixu's back, flashing with vermilion light.
The mark looked as if it had been whipped with a red-hot iron rod, and the edges glowed golden.
It seems to be deeply imprinted in Duan Sixu's delicate flesh.
Duan Sixu closed his clothes, looked at Qi Xing in surprise, and said, "This is the curse of the third life's fate. ”
"The fate of the third world has fallen!" Qi Xing exclaimed.
"That's why I keep trekking through the white waters of Black Mountain. ”
"Find out the reason for the change of life. Duan Si continued.
