When the red light in the operating room went out, Zhu Zhi, who had been on guard for almost the night, immediately stood up, regardless of his haggard face and deep dark circles, and stood in front of the same haggard chief surgeon, Zhu Zhi asked, "My sister...... How's she doing?"

"The situation is good. The surgeon ripped off the medical mask on his face and said, "I've never seen this happen...... It felt like her wounds were healing quickly, even the injuries to her internal organs, as if some mysterious power was healing her. ”

The chief surgeon's words made Zhu Zhi a little stunned, and subconsciously reached out and touched the wound on his abdomen, just after a few hours, Zhu Zhi found that he had the ...... on his abdomen The wound that had obviously been stabbed by someone had now completely disappeared, and the pimple formed by the necrotic tissue on the wound had been removed, leaving only a very shallow, reddish mark.

This strange healing speed made Zhu Zhi feel goosebumps popping up all over his body, but he was only shocked for a while, and the chief surgeon said that he could go in to see his sister, so Zhu Zhi immediately put these things behind him that made him feel terrified and went into the ward to see his sister.

Zhu Shuyi was anesthetized and was still in a comatose state, and later a doctor came to tell Zhu Zhi, Zhu Shuyi's situation seemed to be injured by some huge force, just like a shock wave that would be formed when a dangerous object exploded, a shock wave that spread to the surroundings with a point as the center, and at the same time produced a concussive effect in the shock wave area, this shock wave will not cause obvious trauma to people, but it will shatter the internal organs and even endanger the brain.

In some bombings, many of the dead died not from the explosion, but from the shock wave created by the explosion, from internal injuries.

Some doctors think that there must have been some huge explosion in a certain area, but reading the news reports, there is no report of any explosion, nor has I heard any explosions, and the whole city seems quiet and peaceful today.

Zhu Zhi didn't want to pay attention to the reason why Zhu Shuyi would be injured, and when he saw his sister lying safe and sound, he was already relieved, pulled over the stool and sat next to Zhu Shuyi, holding her hand.

It had been a long time since he had held his sister's hand.

When her parents were still alive, Zhu Shuyi was actually very attached to her brother, and she had to revolve around her brother in big and small things, because her parents were busy with work, for a long time, Zhu Zhi picked up her sister to school, he rode a bicycle every day, first sent her sister to the gate of her elementary school, and then rode to her own school;

When I grow up a little, I will give my sister a gift she likes every year on her birthday, and use the money I earn from my summer job.

As long as someone bullies her, Zhu Zhi will stand up and help her sister bully back.

has always protected her to grow up.

So, why did the ending end look like this?

Zhu Zhi held Zhu Shuyi's hand, and unconsciously fell into the memories of the past in his mind, all the memories of happiness or unhappiness, which caused Zhu Zhi to be stunned for a long time, and then slowly turned his head and looked at the head of Zhu Shuyi's hospital bed, on the bedside table was a metal plate, on which was a bloodstained knife.

The doctor who came over to explain Zhu Shuyi's situation to Zhu Zhi just now also told Zhu Zhi a piece of news by the way, they said that when the ambulance sent Zhu Shuyi over, Zhu Shuyi was holding the knife in her hand, because it was held very tightly, and it took a lot of effort for the medical staff to take the knife out of her hand.

There were no obvious injuries to Ms. Zhu's body, but there was blood on the knife, and doctors said they were not sure if Ms. Zhu had used it to hurt others.

Because the person who called the ambulance for Zhu Shuyi was a man, but when the ambulance passed, only Zhu Shuyi was lying covered in blood, and there was no one else.

Zhu Zhi is worthy of studying medicine for many years, the moment he saw this knife, he couldn't help but touch the wound on his abdomen, the knife edge of his abdomen and the width of the knife fit very well, plus the address where the ambulance pulled Zhu Shuyi back from other doctors was also very close to the position where Zhu Zhi was when he was unconscious.

Zhu Zhi didn't know what was going on.

No, maybe he knew.

During the time when his body was driven by demons, he was always repeating in a daze, looping a dream, in which his beloved sister Zhu Shuyi held a knife and stabbed him in the heart.

Sometimes it's not just about stabbing the heart, it's also about wiping the neck.

Zhu Shuyi in the dream, her eyes are always shining with silver, a glimmer of murderous intent, and she looks quite penetrating.

Although Zhu Zhi would not have such a dream...... Or, because it might be the truth, choose to give up.

He still held Zhu Shuyi's hand tightly.

"Don't worry, Shuyi. Zhu Zhi lowered his head and said to her gently, "From now on, my brother will protect you well." ”

Zhu Shuyi, who was asleep, seemed to hear his words, and subconsciously retracted the hand that was grabbed by Zhu Zhi, and grabbed Zhu Zhi's hand with her fingers impartially.

Zhu Shuyi woke up the next afternoon, but when she woke up, she had obvious symptoms of amnesia.

When Zhu Zhi was ecstatic and asked her if she was uncomfortable, Zhu Shuyi's first sentence was, "Who are you?"

Later, the doctor also came to check, saying that Zhu Shuyi's brain was concussed and she would lose part of her memory, but the specific part of her memory needed to be examined more deeply, and the time for recovering her memory could not be determined, so she needed more understanding and help from the patient's family.

With a tentative mentality, Zhu Zhi asked her, "Then do you remember your master?"

Zhu Shuyi looked at Zhu Zhi blankly: "Master, who is it?"

Then Zhu Zhi thought: It's better to forget.

Forget all the unpleasant things in the past, and you will be able to start again in a single qiē.

……

On the other side, in the mirror, He Qianjue also told Yan Snake about the things he and Crow Feather had done, and after listening to He Qianjue's words, Yan Snake didn't give much reaction, he looked calm and his face was normal.

"I don't think Crow Feather will trouble the Zhu family anymore. He Qianjue said, "What he wants most has arrived, and then he has to work hard to make his new body, so he won't care about two ordinary humans anymore." ”

Listening to He Qianjue's words, Yan Snake seemed a little stunned, and he said, "I should have done this a long time ago." ”

"His goal has always been me, if I give him the body and Neidan directly from the beginning, it will not affect so many lives of the Zhu family for generations. "I should have done this...... I was so stupid. ”

"It's not stupid to protect yourself. He Qianjue said, "It's not easy for you to cultivate for thousands of years, and it's the most stupid thing to give what you have been working hard for a long time to get ready-made results for no reason to a person who doesn't want to work hard and wants to get ready-made results." ”

"I don't know. Yan Snake lowered his head and covered his face with his hands, "I'm just sad." ”

He Qianjue was slightly stunned: "Why are you sad?

"No, not really. Yan Snake still shook his head, "I'm just...... Feeling sad about losing something you can protect. ”

For a thousand years, Yan Snake has forgotten his original dream, he has been trapped in the strange circle of protecting the descendants of the Zhu family, he has followed a group of human beings through many prosperous eras, and has spent time and time again The changes of the times, he has long been out of the way to life and death, ** indifferent and open, the only purpose of his life to this day is to protect the Zhu family.

Protecting his benefactor's offspring from Crowfeather was a promise he made to the woodcutter, and he has kept it to this day.

But today, when He Qianjue told him that Crow Feather would no longer attack the descendants of the Zhu family, and he didn't need to continue to protect Zhu Zhi or Zhu Shuyi, Yan Snake couldn't help but be at a loss.

The meaning of his existence has been lost, and the promise has been fulfilled, so what should he continue to live for now?

"What are you...... Have you lost the goal of survival?" He Qianjue seemed to see through the mentality of the snake, and looked at the snake with a smile: "Without the object of protection, don't you even know how to live?"

"I don't know. Yan Snake shook his head honestly, "I have always lived to protect others. ”

Maybe He Qianjue is taking advantage of people's danger, but He Qianjue is very firm at this moment, and said directly: "Then live to protect me in the future." ”

"You?" Yan Snake was a little stunned, and raised his head to look at He Qianjue.

He Qianjue raised his head shamelessly: "I rescued you from Crow Yu, if it weren't for me, Crow Feather would still plan to kill Zhu Shuyi and Zhu Zhi, you have been cultivating for so many years, don't you even know such a thing as a spell stand-in?"

"Spell stand-in ......" Yan Snake suddenly realized when he heard this, and said in fear: "I see, I completely forgot about this, thinking that as long as the crow feather made an oath with a spell, it would not be broken lightly, but I didn't expect ......"

"That's why I saved you and helped you. He Qianjue became even more upright and continued: "Therefore, you have to repay me. ”

Yan Snake seemed to have no objection to this, and nodded obediently and honestly: "How do you want me to repay you?"

"Just stay with me. He Qianjue stretched out his hand towards the Yan Snake, his hand was very slender and white, his fingers were round, and his fingers were like softness. The snake couldn't help it, and then reached out and held He Qianjue's fingers, and the two knelt on the ground, shaking each other's hands, as if they were exercising some mysterious ritual.

"Stay with me, protect me, listen to me until I say you can go. He Qianjue tilted his head and squinted at Yan Snake, the clothes on his body were not neatly dressed, and a large part of the collarbone on his chest was exposed, looking inexplicably sexy, especially when He Qianjue squinted his eyes, the faint blood red in his eyes made him look ...... It's a little tempting.

Chapter 53

Yan Snake looked at He Qianjue in a daze for a long time, and after a while, his face turned slightly red, and he said softly: "Excuse me, Mr. He Qianjue...... Are you a human or a youkai?"

He Qianjue replied directly: "Monster, maybe it's a demon?"

Youkai and demons are actually not much different, but demons are actually a general term for a new breed born from a mixture of demons and demons.

Yan Snake asked again: "What kind of monster is it...... Or demons?"

He Qianjue touched his chin and thought about it: "I don't know." ”

"I don't know?" Yan Snake was surprised, is there a monster in this world who doesn't know what kind of monster he is?

"Because I have amnesia. He Qianjue laughed, completely unaware of the fact that he had lost his memory, and said with a smile, "I have forgotten everything about myself, but I remember other people's things very clearly, isn't it strange?"

Yan Snake immediately thought of what he had just said to He Qianjue about the Qinghong Sword Sect, and couldn't help but ask, "Then are you really He Qianjue, a disciple of Lu Xuange, a disciple of the Qinghong Sword Sect?"

"I ...... the name Lu Xuange It's really a bit of a reaction. He Qianjue said bluntly, "To put it bluntly, this name makes me feel a little sad and uncomfortable, but because of the loss of memory, I can't be sure if I am really Lu Xuange's disciple, but I ...... I'm afraid it does have something to do with him. ”

"In that case...... Then ...... here" Yan Snake said and looked around again, he had already noticed that something was wrong with this mirror space, and then looked at the outside of the huge mirror next to him, and said, "Are we inside the mirror?"

He Qianjue nodded: "It's indeed in the mirror." ”

"This is the inside of the Heavenly Mirror?"

"Yes. ”

Yan Snake frowned slightly, thinking of He Qianjue's ending in the story, he could only stare at He Qianjue seriously and said, "Then you are really Lu Xuange's disciple, because you are sealed in the Heaven Sealing Mirror." ”

"That being said. He Qianjue shook his head with a strange face: "But I don't think I have any connection with the demons, because I hate the demons very much." ”

"That's what happened back then. Yan Snake said, "Although I know about these things that happened between you and Lu Xuange back then, most of them were based on false rumors and hearsay, and there are many exaggerated elements in this kind of thing...... Assuming we can still find Lu Xuange, maybe we can ask him to help you......"

"Wait a minute. Without waiting for the snake to finish, He Qianjue suddenly interrupted the snake with a smile, he raised his hand and said, "Slow down...... Although I said just now that I hate demons, maybe it wasn't a misunderstanding about that incident back then. ”

“…… Huh?" Yan Snake was a little sluggish when he heard this, and looked at He Qianjue stupidly.

He Qianjue still squinted and smiled, his expression was calm, and said, "Although I hate the demon clan, it is indeed possible for me to collude with them to frame the biggest sect in the cultivation realm, kill countless cultivators, and even try to kill my master Lu Xuange, so he sealed me in this mirror...... There's nothing wrong with that. ”

Yan Snake was speechless, and he had a feeling that he couldn't understand He Qianjue's words......

Give him a sense of ambivalence.

He saw that He Qianjue had always been heartless, smiling, and felt that He Qianjue didn't seem to care about being sealed here at all. But inexplicably, Yan Snake felt that He Qianjue actually cared, because He Qianjue's smile looked too perfect, perfect and false, and it made Yan Snake feel that he was actually very sad.

However, He Qianjue himself didn't want to continue to talk about these with Yan Snake, he began to divert the topic, he said: "Stop these clichés, I want to know what you think or plan next?"

Still at a loss, Yan Snake replied, "Didn't you let me stay with you all the time?"

"So what, you really want to follow me inseparably all the time?" He Qianjue said with a smile, "I thought you would have something you want to do." ”

Yan Snake thought for a while, and then said, "This ...... Yes, I want to go and see Shuyi. ”

"You little apprentice. He Qianjue raised her head and held the back of her head with both hands, "You still care about her." ”

Yan Snake said: "Although I have been protecting the descendants of the Zhu family, I am actually standing not far away and watching, and rarely set foot in their own lives, until Ya Yu killed Shuyi and their parents, I had to show up and take on the responsibility of taking care of the children." Shuyi is the child I have been with me for sixteen years, although sixteen years is not a long time, but for humans, it is probably ...... It was the most important period of their short lives. ”

"So...... Are you treating that child as if it were your own?" He Qianjue asked again.

Yan Snake thought for a while, nodded slightly, and said: "Maybe, human feelings, I actually don't know very well, but Shuyi is very important, I don't know how to describe it, but she is very important." ”

"Important words...... Just go see her. He Qianjue said softly, "You can go at any time." ”

"She probably doesn't remember me...... I cast a spell on her to lose her memory, and she would forget about me. ”

"But you remember her. He Qianjue shook his head, "Yan Snake, your lifespan is very long, even if you only have one Yuan Shen left now, you can start cultivating again, forging a new body, your memory is also very good, and you will remember all kinds of past experiences in your heart." As long as you remember this, then your memory will become ironclad evidence that two people have been connected to each other, no matter how long it is, no matter how many years ......."

He Qianjue said, approached the snake, and said softly: "This memory, this feeling, will always belong to you." ”

……

In the gap between He Qianjue and Yan Snake's conversation, the cicada woke up.

When he woke up, he was lying on the public seat in the hospital hall, the chair was so hard that he felt uncomfortable, rolled and fell off the chair, and then began to crawl towards He Qianjue in a daze, climbed to the side of He Qianjue's legs, and began to climb up along his clothes.

He Qianjue was helpless against him, and reached out to hold the chilling cicada into his arms, this little demon has now become very dependent on He Qianjue, and he has to hug him at every turn, he is more like a child than a child, and he Qianjue is coquettish all day long, but He Qianjue still likes this, this feeling of being relied on and valued.

He rubbed the cicada's rabbit head and rabbit ears, not minding or even hoping that the cicada could rely on himself a little more.

Yan Snake, who saw this scene next to him, was very surprised: "Who is this ......?"

It wasn't until the Yan Snake made a sound and the Han Cicada that crawled into He Qianjue's arms that he realized that there was an extra Yan Snake in the space, and immediately pricked up his ears and glared at the Yan Snake: "Sir, you kidnapped people in so quickly!?"

He Qianjue nodded his head: "Nonsense, what do you mean by abduction?"

After speaking, He Qianjue said to Yan Snake again: "His name is Han Cicada, and he is also a little demon I accepted like you, and you will stay here with me in the future, so ...... I hope you can get along well in the future. ”

"Forgive me for taking the plunge. I don't know if it's because of the cold cicada calling He Qianjue "sir" just now, Yan Snake also began to call Mr., and then said honorifics, Yan Snake said: "Sir, are you planning to accept a lot of monsters in?"

He Qianjue held his forehead with a headache, very incomprehensible, and said indignantly: "Why do you all call me 'sir'? You come and go! This is very rusty, okay? I don't like it at all! I don't like it! I must change my words!"

The snake turned a deaf ear and still shouted: "But...... Han Chan also called you sir just now, I thought it was a specific title......"

He Qianjue was about to roar: "No! This is not a specific title! No matter how you call me, you can't be 'sir'!"

Yan Snake nodded obediently: "Okay, sir." ”

He Qianjue looked haggard and had nothing to love.

"Sir, you haven't answered my question yet. The snake said again.

"Don't you know? I'm sealed here. He Qianjue said, "And like you, your cultivation is completely lost, and you have no body." In order to be able to escape from this hellish place, I have to find a way to absorb the aura to cultivate. But I can't leave this mirror lightly, so I can only ask someone else to help me absorb the aura. ”

Yan Snake roughly understood He Qianjue's thoughts, nodded and said, "But it's only up to me...... And this chilling cicada, I'm afraid ......"

"I know, it's too slow, and I need more yokai. He Qianjue touched his chin and thought, he didn't know where he could go next to find more monsters.

However, it was only distressed for a while, He Qianjue quickly put his troubles behind him, and said happily: "By the way, Yan Snake just joined us today, and we have to hold a welcome party!"

"Welcome party?" The cold cicada tilted his head in He Qianjue's arms and thought, suddenly made a fuss, and began to roll: "Why! It's not fair! You didn't give me a welcome party when I first came in! Why did he have it!"

He Qianjue was a little distressed and helpless: "There is no way, because at that time...... Didn't think about these things...... I didn't expect to join a new member so soon. ”

"Sir, do you want to form a faction?" Different from the welcome meeting discussed by He Qianjue and Han Chan, Yan Snake thought about something deeper, "If there will be more monsters under your command in the future, it is better to simply establish a sect force." ”

He Qianjue frowned, approached the Yan Snake, stretched out his finger and poked Yan Snake's Yan Sù face, Yan Snake looked good, the eyes were typical of snakes, and the pupils were still golden.
