Rebirth: Star Ocean Returns?(17)

Previous Chapter

"That's right, your one-year life span is just to help Ning'er take care of her body!" The voice of the messenger of the past was crisp and neat, without a trace of emotion.

"This body of mine is Lan Ning's, and the rebirth technique was also arranged by you?" Xing Rou suddenly realized that she was just a wandering soul that nurtured this body.

"I'm just yin, I can't stay in the yang world, this secret technique is extremely harsh on cultivators, they must die for a lifetime, the two of them have the same mind, they miss each other, and they are willing to live and die for it, and they haven't encountered it for more than a hundred years, until they meet you. You stayed in Lethe River, endured the thunderstorm, so painful, but when you looked at the cold moon that you had conjured up in the mirror of the past life, you never said a word, which moved me and made me jealous, you still have memories, you can conjure up his appearance, and my memories are all told by people, even this mirror of the past life can't let me see Lan Ning, even if it's just a transformation. After passing through Lethe, I checked your life history, and went to the sun to observe the cold moon, he was in pain, and several times he wanted to pursue you, but I was secretly stopped, I am sure that you are the person I am looking for. Only you can save Lan Ning, I will cast a spell and let Leng Yue find this spell to help me implement my plan. It can also fulfill your wish to see each other again. The messenger of the dead swore an oath, with a little relief.

Xingrou was still grateful to the messenger of the past in his heart, after all, if there were no such things, he would never have had the opportunity to see Leng Yue again, and he also understood why he saw in the mirror of the past life was different from what he felt in the yang world, it was all his own fantasy, and he still knelt on the ground and bowed his head and stretched out his hand to say: "Xingrou feels the grace of the messenger, but Xingrou still has questions!"

"I'm here today to let you know the cause and effect, so that you don't disturb my plans. ”

"There may be a taboo on this art of rebirth, or... What are the consequences?"

"You don't have to worry about this, you just need to take care of this body," the voice of the deceased messenger was sharp.

"But..."Xingrou still wanted to continue to ask, but heard the messenger say: "You already know the past, cherish this year's time, don't ask more about the rest, otherwise I will let the two of you miss each other in life and life, and life is better than death." The messenger of the dead flicked his sleeves, grabbed Xingrou's hand, and scolded sternly.

"Messenger, I..." As soon as Xing Rou spoke, the messenger of the past closed the enchantment and slowly disappeared into the darkness, only to hear the aftermath ring in his ears: "He's waking up soon, go back, don't tell others about today's events." ”

After kneeling for a long time, her legs were a little numb, Xingrou recalled what the messenger said, and unknown panic came towards her one after another, and she always felt that this matter was definitely not as simple as it was as stated on the surface, was it just for Lan Ning? Is the life of thousands of people that Yan Tian said really the consequences of this matter? Limped to the inner room.

Looking at Leng Yue, who was sleeping on the table, his heart was a little calmer. Carefully sat next to him, just in the enchantment for so long, thinking that time had passed, and he didn't want the enchantment to even be able to divide time.

Xing Rou looked at Leng Yue, just kept watching, and felt in her heart that no matter what his soul was destroyed, what sentient beings were destroyed, being able to stay with Leng Yue like this at this moment, quiet and dependent, was the best time in the world. I have long forgotten my identity as a man in my last life, and when I looked at the person in front of me, I felt a little inexplicable.

As soon as the sky was slightly bright, a rare ray of sunlight shone into the room, Leng Yue opened her hazy eyes, and saw Xingrou's face close to herself, her eyes instantly widened, and she was afraid that she would wake up Xingrou at this moment, and both of them were embarrassed, so she gently lifted her head on the table, picked up Xingrou horizontally, put it on the bed, and covered it with a quilt. Trying to recall what happened yesterday, the more I thought about it, the more ashamed I became, my face flushed, my mind was full of Xingrou's close face just now, long eyelashes, fair skin, and a slight breathing sound, I only felt hot and dry, my heart was like a deer, I couldn't help but go to the bed to look at it again, patted my head, and turned to go out.

After Xingrou woke up, she was not surprised to see herself lying on the bed, but she was in pain all over her body, and she felt powerlessness all over her body, she had no other feeling except cold and pain, she was shivering in the quilt, and she had no choice but to call Leng Yue: "Brother, brother..."

Leng Yue came when she heard the sound, and was startled when she saw this, she was fine just now, what was wrong, and asked anxiously, "Xingrou, what's wrong?"

"Brother, I'm cold, I'm in pain!" Xingrou said tremblingly

"Where does it hurt?" said and covered Xingrou with another layer of quilt.

"Brother, it hurts!" Xingrou couldn't control her rolling on the bed, fine beads of sweat rolling down her forehead, and her body trembled all the time.

Leng Yue didn't know what to do, so she picked up Xingrou and hugged her tightly in her arms: "Xingrou, I'm here, my brother is here, I'll take you back to the house." ”

Xingrou only felt that her soul and body were about to be separated as she did last night, she shook her head, held back her tears, and said, "Brother... Brother, let's stay here, maybe... Maybe you will be able to see hope, and you will not cling... Persist until you are so sad that you are so sad. ”

Leng Yue hugged Xingrou, he had all kinds of feelings in his heart, he was afraid, he was afraid that because of selfishness, Xingrou would be like a sea of stars, and he would never recover for himself. If she didn't return home as soon as possible, the severe cold of this Yuncui Mountain would definitely make Xingrou's pain worse, and even die.

picked up Xing Rou, who couldn't struggle anymore, and walked down the mountain, only to hear Xing Rou smile weakly in a daze and say, "Big brother, I'm back." ”

Leng Yue suddenly stopped, looked at Xingrou in her arms, and had an illusion when she heard this "big brother", she was Xinghai. Listening to Xingrou's weaker and weaker breathing, trying to make himself sober, he shook his head, his steps became lighter, the road seemed to be much easier, as smooth as walking on the plain, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the stable at the bottom of the mountain.

After preparing the carriage, he returned to the house as fast as he could, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he shouted: "An'er, housekeeper, come quickly!"

Everyone gathered in a hurry when they heard the voice: "Quick, pass on the doctor's order, An'er, go back to the room and prepare a few more futons, housekeeper, go find some braziers and put them in the young lady's room, go quickly!" Leng Yue said in a hurried tone.

Everyone went to prepare, Leng Yue picked up Xingrou and walked into the room quickly, put it on the bed, covered it with several layers of quilts, and still only heard Xingrou say weakly: "Big brother, it's so cold, it's so cold"

In less than a quarter of an hour, the medical order had arrived, the braziers in the room were everywhere, and everyone in the room was hot and sweaty, only Xingrou was still saying: "Big brother, I'm cold, I'm cold!"

After the medical order diagnosed the pulse, they all shook their heads, the older one was the head of the medical order, bowed his head and said: "City Lord, Xia Guan has been practicing medicine for many years, and he has never seen such a strange pulse image, so he can only prescribe some medicine to calm the nerves and warm the body, let the young lady take it first, and I will study it carefully."

"You're tired, go down first!" Leng Yue walked to the bed, sat down, picked up Xingrou, and asked softly, "What should I do, you can be better." ”

"Big brother, I'm back!" Xingrou kept repeating this sentence weakly.

Leng Yue thought back to this period of time, what Xing Rou said and did, and felt more and more that she was acting the same as Xinghai, there was no deviation at all, the residence before the siege was only known to Xinghai, the taste of flowers and cakes, as well as habits, the tone of speech, that look would not be wrong! The more Leng Yue thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was strange, and suddenly thought of someone, Yan Tian.

"Someone, hurry up and invite Mr. Yantian, saying that I have something important to discuss with him, and let him come to the mansion. Leng Yue ordered, he thought, maybe Yan Tian could give him the answer he wanted, and he could relieve Xingrou's pain at the moment.

Dusk has arrived, and Xingrou has not seen any improvement, but has been muttering: "Big brother, I'm cold, big brother, I'm back." Leng Yue kept it in her arms and didn't leave.

Until someone came to report that the hot day had arrived, waiting in the main hall. Leng Yue got up, called An'er to stay in front of the bed without leaving an inch, and then turned around and went out.

As soon as he saw Yan Tian, he didn't care about being polite, closed the door tightly, opened everyone, and said: "Yan Tian, Xing Rou she..." ”

"How many more days will it hurt?" Leng Yue asked anxiously

"After tonight, the pain intensifies, the body is like thousands of people gnawing, tomorrow, only to feel the bitter cold, the cold around the body, not close to people, the day after tomorrow, need to go through it again, you can be fine. Yan Tian said calmly.

"Thousands of people have bitten!!!

"This is what she should bear, and this is what she must bear!" Yan Tian said

"What do you mean by saying it clearly?" Leng Yue approached the hot sky and grabbed his collar as if she was going to swallow him alive.

"Since she went up the mountain to look for me, I have calculated thousands of times these days, but I can't calculate the details of the truth, so I have to be one-sided, but just yesterday, it seems that everything is clear, and she has suffered for others. If you use someone else's body, you naturally have to bear some of it. ”

Leng Yue didn't understand, and shook the hot sky like crazy: "Who has it suffered for, what does it mean to use someone else's body, who is she?"

"Leng Yue, my time is short, and I am not afraid of God's curse, but I am a warlock, forgive me, I can only say this, otherwise it will be a disaster for you and her. As long as you know, you must cherish the person in front of you, and don't miss it. Yan Tian said while holding Leng Yue's arm

When Leng Yue heard that "time is running out" like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, she collapsed and shouted: "Why, why, why do you want to take away the people around me one by one, Yan Tian, you can't die, I will definitely be able to save you, I have the method of rebirth, you and Xinghai I must be okay..."

"Leng Yue, if it weren't for your kindness, I would have died at that time, and now I have so many more years, I have no regrets, I have made a confidant like you in this life, I also know that I am satisfied, life and death are doomed, you don't need to mind! You must remember my words, don't be persistent, you must cherish the person in front of you, cherish that girl, you can't miss it!" The corners of Yan Tian's eyes were a little moist, still comforting.

"Yan Tian, it is my luck to meet you in this life, it is my luck!" After that, Leng Yue and Yan Tian hugged each other.

Yan Tian patted Leng Yue's back and said softly: "You must cherish this stolen time, you must be! I should go, the night is already late, wait for Miss Xingrou to be better, come to Guanli and drink a few cups, I will wait for you"

After the hot day left, Leng Yue sat alone in the main hall, his eyes were empty, and he was as silent as death, just like the year when Xinghai just left, the housekeeper pushed the door in and was startled, he had served for many years, and naturally knew how helpless and painful Leng Yue should be at this moment. Hurriedly knelt on the ground: "City Lord, Miss still needs you to take care of you, you must not hurt your body"

Hearing Xingrou, Leng Yue lifted her spirits and asked, "How is Xingrou!"

"Back to the city lord, it seems that the pain is worse, and I keep calling you in my mouth."

After Leng Yue heard this, she hurriedly ran to Xingrou's room, and after only a while, she didn't even have the strength to speak, only to see that she was still muttering something in her mouth, and there was no sound, Leng Yue heard it when she got closer: "Big brother, I'm back." ”

Leng Yue clasped Xingrou's hand and said, "Big brother is here, Xingrou is not afraid"

Thinking of what Yan Tian said, thinking of the similarity between Xingrou and Xinghai, he half-believed that Xingrou was Xinghai!
