Chapter 254: The Future
It wasn't until the two battlesuits scattered in different locations surfaced that the mirror image conjured up by the subtle connection between the "goddess's suits" lost contact and finally shattered in mid-air. The scattered golden light fell into the dust, refracted by the sunlight shining through the glass flower room, and the light was almost colorful for a moment.
The little princess leaned back on the vine-wrapped chair, dissipating the last illusion.
"It's really touching......."
Xia Mian sighed in a low voice, and the laughter in her tone was inaudible, so that it was difficult for people to confirm for a while whether her sentence was a sincere emotion or a silent mockery.
Either way, it's not a big deal.
But after a short silence, the little princess continued.
"I didn't expect the two of them to be so smart, they could actually see that this was in a mirage, and they could find a way out of the situation at a critical juncture, and seek a way out for themselves....... It is worthy of being a member of your Bai family. ”
"Maybe it's because Liu Mu and Bai Yixian have always been friends. ”
Bai casually fiddled with the vines entangled around Xia Mian, different from the flower vines that ate people in the ancient temple in the fantasy world, the mandala entrenched at the feet of the little princess was like the most delicate foil, without the slightest mistake, just embellished with the extreme beauty of the girl, and then continuously supplied nutrients to her beauty.
"After all, this Young Master Liu, but he knows some of the secrets of ancient rumors, how can he be so stupid. ”
This sentence is an understatement, but Xia Mian guessed his subtext at once.
The reason why Liu Mu came to investigate the Wu clan branch in Liuzhen was to a certain extent because of the guidance of the ancient ballads left by the ancestors of the Bai family.
Many mysteries have a common point, that is, the mysterious Loulan Wu Clan.
The little memory that seems to be true or not when he was young is enough to become a mystery in Liu Mu's heart under the rendering of his years, so that many years later, he will also deeply remember those things that have never been confirmed and can no longer be answered with the death of his grandfather. In addition, his cousin Bai Yicong disappeared bizarrely a year ago, and Liu Mu helped Bai Yicong to conduct a follow-up investigation, and the accident that he inadvertently found in the Tianwentang Museum, the previous person in charge, He Sheng, also disappeared at the same time.
One or two things, it can be called accidental.
But when the incredible accumulates enough, it also points to a clearer clue, so that all the impossible is connected and becomes the key to deciphering a certain secret. When the seeds of doubt are buried in Liu Mu's heart, a little more push is enough for him to confirm, or "think he can confirm" something.
What happens during the investigation and what are the risks.......
When people are impulsive and confused, there is no way to think about the whole thing carefully, especially when Bai Yicong is far away in Wucheng, Liu Mu can't contact him for a while, and there is no way to explain the things about that ancient ballad.
At a critical juncture, no matter how rational a person is, he can't always think of all possibilities perfectly, especially a person like Liu Mu, who has always been very freewheeling, he will only instinctively choose to trust his own judgment. And the document bag that Bai deliberately left in the Bai family's villa became the last straw that crushed the camel.
Many times, it is the success and defeat that are also the failures.
If it weren't for the story left by the old man of the Bai family, Bai would never have found a way to crack the treasure of the relict king, and if it weren't for Liu Mu knowing some of the clues left by the old man of the Bai family, he would definitely not have thought of coming to check these. This clue is the only way to find the "goddess's suit", but it is also like a time bomb, and it may be used by others at any time.
"Liu Mu knows the secret I don't know, and if Bai Yi can't find an entry point from there, this arrogant young master is obviously a more suitable choice. How can he be made to tell the truth, it is obviously not the best result to ask or probe him, as long as he arouses his interest and pushes him to investigate, he will contribute all the hidden secrets. ”
"I have to say, Bai, you are really a conspirator, and the second master of the Bai family has become your scapegoat in this way. The little princess's voice was faint, this was clearly a compliment, but there was not much sincerity in it, just like an emotion, "If it weren't for the fact that the situation of your Bai family is so complicated, and it is intricate, our plan would not have gone so smoothly." ”
"Where there is power to fight, it is destined not to be peaceful, and the human heart is the most terrible thing. As a side branch of the Bai family, half of the people with foreign surnames can know the most secretive secrets of the Bai family, but the old man refuses to tell me these things, which is really ridiculous. But it doesn't matter, no matter how hard he tries to be alone, it just makes me take some more detours, and it can't change the result. ”
For this emotion, Bai didn't expect to get any feedback.
According to the usual character of the little princess, it is like a hell of a thing to hear comfort or advice from her mouth, and she does not stab her words into the chest of her allies, and she has to thank her for her good mood.
Who knew that this time, after a short silence, the little princess actually let out a low sigh.
"Many times, I thought the Black Saints would succeed, three times....... In the past few thousand years, there have been at least three chances to completely cut off the reincarnation of the Wu Clan. If the Black Saintess really succeeded, what would I face, whether it would be eternal death or complete liberation, I might sleep forever in the flower soul, and never wake up again. So, with my death, can the tragedy of Loulan end, or will it continue to repeat itself in another form?"
"Why, are you feeling sorry for the innocent witch saintess, or are you feeling sorry for yourself. ”
"No...... No. Xia Mian sighed lowly, and his tone was lowered, "I'm just a little curious, they are the only ones who realize that this is a mirage when they are in a puzzle, and it is difficult to see the layout of this floor after all." ”
"You're right, but what's the use of it....... The Black Saintess also helped us, she once wanted to stop the sacrifice of the Wu Clan, so she left her back hand and left the two red candles with the divine power left by the goddess to Liu Nansheng. Most of the people in this world are laity, few people can overcome their hearts, when they visit the Dragon Maiden Temple, they are destined to be unable to stay out of the matter, as for the Holy Dragon Ball's re-sighting, it is only a matter of time, and the only variable is who the victim is. ”
With a slightly mocking chuckle, Bai said unhurriedly.
"The big picture is decided, it's too late. ”
"Yes, you're right....... It's all coming to an end. ”
The little princess of Loulan repeated Bai's words, and she couldn't hear too much tone in her words.
The person who should have died a long time ago fell asleep with the remnants of the "goddess's suit", and woke up in the entanglement of the flower soul, and the torture in the process is unimaginable. And when the dust was about to settle, Xia Mian only felt a deep sense of trance, as if many things would lose their meaning with the end of the established fate of the Wu Clan, so what was her point at that time?
Or has she really thought about her meaning for thousands of years?
The first years with my sister were the only pure land in the little princess's heart, and even when she woke up after a thousand years, it was that period of time that gave her the only warmth. She remembers her sister's care for her, the long corridor where the two of them walked hand in hand, and the beautiful silhouette and slightly drooping eyes of her sister when she backlit it.
But in the end, the pure white memories were tainted by the blood that could not be cleaned.
If at the moment of the tragedy, she did not stand on the opposite side of her sister, would she have a chance to defeat the evil god who came into the world? If you realize that there is something unusual about the behavior of the high priest, and think more about the deep meaning behind it, is it possible to fundamentally prevent the destruction of the ancient kingdom of Loulan in the end, and prevent that disaster of corpses and mountains of blood from coming?
Was there a better solution at the time?
Xia Mian couldn't think of any answers, and it didn't make sense to delve into the so-called answers after time had passed.
Questioning from her heart, she did the best thing she could think of at the time.
But the long sword that pierced my sister's chest was like a stab in her own heart.
The little princess still remembered the stunned expression of her sister's face so beautiful that she didn't dare to look directly at it on the eve of losing consciousness, the "goddess's battle suit" was filled with too much divine power, and when the holy woman who was torn as a container was about to shatter, the innocent victim finally briefly regained his consciousness and realized what was happening at the moment.
........ That incredible despair and disappointment.
It's clearly painful.
After experiencing a mutual trust, and then everything collapsed, becoming an irreversible betrayal, Xia Mian didn't want to believe anything. But this man named Bai appeared beside her, bringing another special case.
How can you not be afraid.......
The little princess of Loulan and Bai's blood are connected in the same place, even if they are suspicious of each other and calculating each other, they have to rely on each other and snuggle up to each other, this complex relationship is beyond words, and it is torture for both of them. But they have long been accustomed to this kind of torture, and even subtly, they gradually began to enjoy the torture.
Bai knows Xia Mian's arrogance, and he also knows the resistance in the girl's bones.
The little princess of Loulan, who was high above, naturally knew what kind of thoughts this person full of intrigue and calculation had in her heart, and it was this covetous infatuation that made the attraction in the dream go to Kawagebo Peak smoothly, and became the motivation for Bai to choose to cooperate with her when she was strange. But infatuation can't be equal to love after all, and all you want is conquest and control, even possession and drive, but there is no sincere pity, even if many times their relationship is close to tenderness and sweetness.
Xia Mian did not hesitate to use him, nor did he hesitate to give him certain benefits.
When Bai Shang is still useful, the cooperation between them will not be terminated, and from the moment the man and the flower soul reached a blood contract, awakening the blood of the ancient country of Loulan from the mandala flowers all over the sky, it is destined that they will draw the most colorful stroke of the endless reincarnation that has lasted for thousands of years, so that everything is about to settle.
In addition to cooperation and utilization, how sincere are they entrusted to each other?
Xia Mian didn't dare to guess, and there was no need to guess.
On the other hand, the man who confronted her, even if he knew how to pinch people's hearts, looked at the girl's delicate and moving cheeks at the moment, his white eyes sank slightly, and he could only peek into the boundless whole fog, presumably her heart was still not sure enough, and many things were not thorough.
But what does it matter?
The corners of the white lips were slightly raised, revealing a determined coldness.
If there is any hesitation, it is just that the chips are not enough, and the last thing he lacks is patience.
The goddess's suit is about to be awakened, and the container is gradually starting to run in. Back then, you made a blood pact with me in the flower soul, so that life was shared, benefits were shared, and when the evil god came into the world, it was our new future. ”
Speaking of this, Bai's tone paused slightly, and then he continued to add.
"It's your future, and my future. ”
In response to him, Xia Mian smiled casually, and there was a silence that was neither deep nor shallow.
