Chapter 224: The Prophet's Foreshadowing: A New Hope
I sat up slowly and leaned back on the pillow. It was a slow process, but he didn't mean to help me. He just looked at me with great patience, but his eyes were calm, even like a pool of stagnant water.
Ling Xiao suddenly came in from outside and saw that I was struggling, so he helped me put the pillow behind me. I smiled at her slightly, and she seemed pleasantly surprised. Yes, for so many days, this may be the only expression she has seen of me that is not Mu Ran.
I whispered a thank you to her, but she suddenly covered her mouth with her hands in excitement. There were obvious tears flashing in her eyes, and my heart suddenly soured, and I told her that I was all right, and that she would go out with me in the afternoon. Her tears finally gushed out uncontrollably, then she nodded and ran out.
Throughout the whole process, the prophet Li Mai sat there silently. Yes, he's not really a seven or eight-year-old girl. He was a prophet named Lee Mai. I saw his past in the realm of time, and his tragic love with his thoughts.
Before I entered the Time Realm, I had benefited from the protective armor he had given me. So before and after I fell into the demon, I was able to protect myself intact. Therefore, the meaning of this person to me is naturally very unusual.
I know how he has used to absorb the part of my mind about him and his thoughts after I returned to this era. But I don't know what he's still here for.
"Can I think now?" he still looked at me quietly, as if there was nothing in his eyes.
I nodded, and asked him with my eyes what he was here for.
"Originally, I should have left on the day you returned. But suddenly I saw something. I think you'll want to know that. ”
I looked him in the eye puzzled, and for a moment I couldn't figure out what he meant. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if smiling. He climbed onto my bed and stuck his fingers out, but his body was too small.
Even though he had leaned forward to the maximum, his fingers were still a long distance from my forehead.
I gently moved my body forward and leaned down so that my forehead was touching his fingertips.
Li Mai gently closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes rolled as if they were nothing.
I looked into his eyes and it was as if the world in that view had magically sucked me in. Suddenly, his body relaxed completely, and only floated with what seemed to be a stream of water in his eyes. Slowly, I came to the shore.
Feeling more relaxed than ever, I stood up on the shore and saw a mahogany door in front of me.
I was a little confused, and looked around, but all around me was the thick fog that couldn't be dispersed. It's just that the door in front of me seems to be leaking warm light through the crack in the door.
The light was warm and beautiful. For a moment, I was a little addicted.
Gently walking through the door, suddenly, a hearty laugh came from inside. My hand touching the doorknob suddenly moved, and tears fell involuntarily. This is the voice of Chongming.
I couldn't wait to turn the handle and open the door, only to see that it was a rectangular dining table. Chongming was holding a glass of red wine in his hand, and there seemed to be a man sitting opposite him.
Seeing me walk in, the corners of Shigeaki's mouth raised a nice arc, and then waved at me.
I opened my eyes in an instant, but in front of me, it was still the face of the prophet Li Mai.
"Just now, what is that?" I grabbed his hand excitedly, I believed that what I had just seen portended something, and I just wanted to hear Li Mai say it himself.
Li Mai frowned slightly, probably because he was holding him too hard. However, it was only for a moment, and his expression returned to an indifferent look.
"As you can see. Gently spit out these four words, and after I let go of his hand, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
For a moment, I even saw the light of hope in my eyes, and the softest part of my heart was touched, and I couldn't calm down for a long time. "So, Chongming, will you come back?"
"Hmm. Li Mai withdrew his hand and sat back in the same chair he had been sitting in first.
"What to do, how to bring him back to life?" I got out of bed, but as soon as my legs touched the ground, I felt a piercing pain. My legs went limp, and I fell to the ground.
Li Mai didn't come to help me, he just frowned, but his whole body trembled slightly.
"What I foresaw was nothing more than fragments. I even just saw the sun burning, and I wasn't sure if it was him. Of course, I also thought about it for a long time before I came to tell you this. Because, I think it's always a good thing that there is hope.
I'm used to living a life with no hope and no future, and I know what a barren world it is.
So, I don't want you to follow in my footsteps. If there is hope to live, the world will always be bright. ”
He jumped down from the tall chair and patted his clothes. "Okay, that's all I have to say to you. I'm going to go now. ”
He seems to have already figured out where he is going, so I just think that every step of the way is extremely determined and determined.
"You, are you going to find Sinian?" I was still sitting on the ground, but I couldn't help but ask.
His figure paused for a moment, and then said in a soft tone, "She is your miss, but she is my Manman." ”
Another three days have passed, and I can already move freely in the house where Wu Buli once lived. The others are long gone, no matter what their mood is. I deliberately went to look for the mermaid family's Halcinder, but it seems that the mermaid family has long since left. I smiled coldly, but I haven't forgotten this hatred.
Ling Xiao and Zuo Liang were by my side day and night, and Ling Xiao always took care of me carefully, which made me a little irritable. They seem to be very taboo about talking about words like the sun or the heavy picture. Although I knew in my heart that they were just afraid that I would remember those sad pasts, in my heart, I had other ideas.
I've been resting for too long. The image of Chongming sitting in front of the long table and holding a wine glass seemed to be engraved in my heart, and I always wanted to do something more for him. Until this day, I stumbled upon a roll of human skin in my clothes.
I unfolded the skin in wonder, and was amazed to find that it actually had a resurrection method written in ancient writing! My hands trembled slightly, and then I remembered that the sheepskin was actually something that had been stolen from Wu Buli.
Wu Buli said that she had not tried the authenticity of this method. But once Wu Buli did resurrect Ling Xiao and He Shu. So, let's just believe that this method is very useful! Li Mai said that life needs hope, so for a moment, I even felt that this was the hope that should appear in my life.
I looked at it excitedly and wrote down everything I needed. Next, I burned the skin.
The smell of burning fat filled the room in an instant, and I watched as the fire grew closer and closer to my hand, and then gently burned my fingers. It hurts.
Ling Xiao frowned and came in from outside the door, and when he saw me like this, he immediately broke the burned human skin in my hand. She grabbed my hand to see if I was hurt, as if she thought I was doing something stupid.
I looked at her with a slight smile, but I looked at her even more panicked. She immediately found the ointment for the burn and rubbed it on me, but I grabbed her hand, there was one thing I still needed to certify.
"Ling Xiao, you and He Shu were killed by Chongming at the beginning. Even your bodies were burned, how did you end up in front of me intact?"
Ling Xiao was startled by my sudden question, and then she frowned and recalled, "I don't know the specifics, I just remember that when I woke up again, I saw the wound on Wu Buli's bandaging wrist. Then she signed a pact with us to serve her. ”
"Oh," I felt a little relieved, "and you saw her bleeding." It's a pity that I've already killed her..."
I felt a little sorry for it, and put my burned finger in my mouth, just thinking that the resurrection method was written on the skin of this person, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration rising. Ling Xiao looked at me with some concern and asked me what was wrong.
I grabbed Ling Xiao's hand, and finally my sadness flowed backwards. "Ling Xiao, Chongming may never come back! I found a way to resurrect him, but I need Wu Buli's blood! However, Wu Buli died, and I killed it with my own hands! So, does it mean that I killed Chongming with my own hands!"
Ling Xiao didn't understand my words, and after I said it a few times, she finally sighed. She gently lifted my chin and wiped the tears from my cheeks.
"Fool, don't you just want the blood of the Nine Infants? Without the witch, don't you still have the witch that you won't abandon? Have you forgotten what our original intention was? Isn't it just to eradicate this ancient beast? Then the descendant of Hou Yi, Ge Shaoyun, is still cultivating in the White Pagoda Temple! Eradicate the Nine Infants, take blood and resurrect the Ming Dynasty. It's a win-win!"
I suddenly remembered the high temple, and the Ge Shaoyun and Dragon Lord in the temple. Those things that happened before, some things that didn't happen, suddenly appeared in front of my eyes. I looked at Ling Xiao's face, "You're right!"
Ling Xiao sighed in relief, and then suddenly hugged me, "Great, my Daidai, finally back!"
After another three days, Ling Xiao, Zuo Liang, and I, along with I, left Tong Town. I don't know why he stayed, although I made a love agreement with him. But I never forced him to do anything for me, but I was a little irritated by his presence, but I was not extremely repulsed.
was bitter, but it never appeared in front of me again. I've tried to find him with a wide touch technique, but I've searched all over Hitomi Town, and I haven't found any trace of him. Perhaps, he left while I was in the mood for it!
I looked back at the once magnificent Hitomi Town, but now, it was just a decaying empty city.
"Where are we going now?" Ling Xiao asked softly.
I looked at the clear sky in the south, "I need to kill someone before I can go anywhere." ”
