Chapter 599: The Key of the Spiral (I)
"Having said all that, you just want me to help you...... Going to Ellens?" Spirited Ghost twisted his head with his arms on his back.
Qianling nodded: "Is it okay?"
"Yes, yes. It's just a girl...... You'll have to think about it," Spirit's eyes darkened, "that's Erenis." It used to be your hometown, yes, but now it'...... It is undoubtedly the most dangerous place in the world for you. ”
"I thought about it. Qianling said seriously, "As long as my uncle is willing to help me, I have the ability of four-leaf clover to cross the enchantment, and the ability of poppy to transform, it will be no problem to blend in." ”
"That being said...... But after all, I'm an S-class fugitive from the Spiral Tower," Lieghosting frowned, "Once I step into the realm of Ellenis, even if I don't trigger the enchantment, the induction between the feathers will be able to attract the Hualing Xuan's group of people in the first place. ”
"Uncle, you don't have to accompany me into Ellen Is, just take me to fly to the Floating Island," Qianling held his hand, pitifully begging, "Please, I'm really worried about Xiao Yu, I just need to go and see him, even if it's a glance, make sure he's okay, and I'll be back right away." ”
"Does the moon god know about this?"
She was stunned and slowly let go of her hand: "...... I didn't say it. If he knew it, he wouldn't agree. And I can't ...... Always rely on him, rely on the demon clan. It's my own business, and I can't get him involved. ”
"So," Ghost raised an eyebrow slightly, "you're going to hide it from him...... Escape?"
"It's not like running away...... Qianling bit her lip, "I planned to go to Xiao Yu a long time ago, and these few months are also considered ...... Temporarily live in the Demon Clan. Besides, I'll come back after I see Xiao Yu, and I'll apologize to him when the time comes......"
Lie's ghost looked at her for a while, then looked at the starry sky: "I think you'd better tell the moon god." ”
"Otherwise, when he finds out that you are gone, he will find out that I helped you escape...... I'm afraid I don't want this head. ”
She looked at the distant mountains, her hair dancing lightly in the starlight, and her eyes were soft: "No." Uncle is my important friend, and Satsuki won't hurt my friend. ”
He sneered through his nose and stopped talking.
"Well, you have the final say. A faint sigh came from a long time, "I'll help you find out the news of Qianyu tomorrow, about a week." Prepare well these days, and I'll take you to Ellens in a week. ”
"Really?!Wow, Uncle is really the most capable and the best!"
"Uh-huh, there's no elimination that I can't detect...... Ouch, don't pinch your face, it hurts!"
A week later.
In the middle of the night, everything is silent, and the moonlight is like water flowing from the clouds, outlining the outline of the sleeping mountains and rivers in the distance.
Qianling was dressed in a night suit and exposed her ankles, and turned her head in a moon shadow, looking at the hidden stronghold with her back to the mountain, and the slight fire was swaying in the wind.
"Regret it?" said Spirit, quipping as he clipped his hand.
Her eyelashes were plated with moonlight, and she glanced fixedly in a certain direction in the deepest part of the stronghold, and turned to walk down the hillside: "Let's go, go early and return early." ”
Gotta get back before that guy loses his temper. If you apologize well, grinding him for a few days should be discouraged, right?
The clouds are moving, the moonlight is revealed, the clear light is like water sprinkled on the mountains and grassy slopes, and the trees are rustling in the wind.
The ghost was stunned, and his footsteps slowly stopped.
"Uncle?" Qianling looked at him, followed his gaze and looked up, and the whole person was stunned in place for a moment.
Against the bright moonlight.
The black-haired boy stood on the branches of the ancient tree, covered with hoarfrost, like a lonely moon that stopped, and he didn't know how long he had been standing.
The wind hissed at the hem of his clothes, his eyes were like candles in the dark night, and his pupils were long, sharp shapes, like cold blades approaching the ground with a proud angelic expression.
The line of sight is opposite, and sparks are rubbed together.
The near-suffocating coercion and murderous machine came head-on.
Qianling subconsciously blocked in front of Lie Chongying, and met the young man's cold gaze, her lips moved, but she didn't know what to say.
The wind was a pious servant waving his claws and surging in the night, and Lan Yue's long hair poured down slowly from the trees, and he didn't even bother to spread his wings, only stepped lightly on the wind, and his fluttering robe almost melted into the twilight.
Lie Ghost stared at him, frowning slightly, and slowly clenched his fists.
"Satsuki, that ...... I...... That ......" Qianling nervously opened her mouth to explain something, looking at the young man's cold face, she suddenly lost the courage to continue.
"Let's go. The cold, almost cold voice melted into the night, scattered in the breeze, and blew past her ears.
He carried a shallow torrent of wind demons around him, shuttling back and forth in the night, his robe blowing up in the moonlight, and he walked straight past the girl without squinting.
Qianling was stunned, still standing in place, but felt that her feet suddenly became a little weak, and she couldn't move a step.
"It's not the first time you've ...... anyway"
The long hair fell, the frost and snow and the moonlight blew with the wind, he slowly stopped, standing in place, his back was still upright, maybe because of the moonlight, inexplicably a little lonely in many places. A self-deprecation uttered by himself was so light that it was almost inaudible:
"Escaped. ”
Qianling's eyes suddenly turned red.
The shoulder was gently patted, she slowly turned her face sideways, Lie Chongying's eyes showed a little comfort, and said with her lips: Go?
She took a light breath, nodded slowly, and said with her lips: Okay.
The hand was grasped by the uncle's wide and warm hand, like a kind of support, transmitting strength, leading her forward, forward.
Qianling lowered her head and looked at the ground illuminated by the moonlight under her feet, every step was so heavy and difficult, and every step was farther and farther away from the person behind her, until she could not reach it.
The sound of soft footsteps came from behind itself again, but it faded away.
The man who stopped was disappointed, and he went away, never looking back.
A drop of water fell to the ground beneath his feet and shattered.
The palm of his hand was broken free in an instant, and Lie Chongying was stunned, and turned his head in shock: "Ya...... Girl?!"
Being hugged tightly by a pair of hands, Lan Yue stopped in a daze, and the wind demon around her screamed and turned into a torrent and quietly dispersed.
The hands that hugged him tightly, their fingers trembling, slowly, slowly tightened forward a little tighter. Her face was buried deep in his back, warmth coming from where her cheek was touching, and ...... Damp.
“…… Will be back. ”
It was a very low voice, as if it was coming out of the suppressed tone deep in the throat.
"Satsuki ......," she said again, her cheeks pressed against the vest between his wings, tears falling from her eyes, whispering and clear, like a promise, "I'll be back." ”
Can you wait for me?
She didn't say this.
His body stiffened for a moment, he didn't look back in the night, his back shrouded in the moonlight, only letting the hands hug him tightly, letting that little bit of dampness spread from the vest, turning into sourness and melting into every flesh and blood in his body.
"Good. ”
After a long time, the voice sounded, just one word, like some kind of accident, like some kind of coincidence, more like a kind of telepathy that didn't need to be said, in response to the words she didn't say.
Qianling slowly let go of her hand, looking at the back of the young man who never looked back in the night blurred by tears, and the tears fell again. Turning and running towards the ghost, he grabbed his hand and disappeared into the shadows of the trees in front of him.
In the vast night, there is no edge in sight, and finally everything is settled.
The young man stood on the hillside, his black hair pouring down his waist in the night breeze, and every strand of his robe was blowing, like a lonely bamboo that had stopped for a thousand years.
For a long time, for a long time, he slowly turned around, and the tails of his eyes were a little red on his delicate face illuminated by the moonlight. The moonlight poured into his eyes, and a hazy mist rose from the crimson color.
All sounds are silent, and the mountains and rivers are silent.
He looked into the distance where the morning light was rising, and slowly said a sentence that no one listened to:
"I'll wait for you. ”
