Finding the key, I disconnected from Nai He and returned to reality.
"However, in his previous life, it was Wu Wangfu's saber that belonged to the sword, the wind blow, you still have four hours to spare, after twelve o'clock tonight, if you can't find her true body, then I can't do anything. ”
I turned my back to them, trying to make my voice sound the same as usual when I made the announcement. But the reality is cruel after all, even if I say it normally, the matter of life and death cannot be passed by a light "goodbye". So as soon as the words came out, I could already predict that it would be either silent or crazy.
Obviously, the always silent wind has made the same choice again. And none of us want to say meaningless advice at this time.
The quiet air was like an adhesive that imprisoned all of us, and just when I couldn't bear to break the situation, Nai He on the sickbed spoke first:
"Feng Xuan, I have something I want to say to Sister Su alone, you can go now, go early and come back early. ”
Feng Jie was still hesitating, but when he heard this sentence, he could only do what I said. I was worried that Feng Jie's mood would be wrong, and there would be some drastic actions, so I hinted that Sinan would go with him.
When I sent them out, I found that Sinan had a strange face, as if he wanted to say something to me, I was about to ask him what was wrong, but I saw him shake his head, and then let Ah Shu stay outside to guard the two of us, and he disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye with the wind.
Now that the person is gone, there is no point in me digging deeper, so I simply explained Ah Shu, and I immediately returned to Naihe's side.
At this time, he had sat up from the bed, and when he saw me coming back, he smiled softly at me and said:
"Sister Su, have you ever wondered why we are alive?"
If this question were answered by an ordinary person, it might be possible to say a lot of beautiful and reasonable answers, and I often use these answers to persuade frustrated people to live well, but now that she asks me this, I don't know how to answer it at all.
Why to live, to me, it seems like I've never really thought about it with my heart.
Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, he smiled again, and then stretched out his hand and motioned for me to sit down on the edge of the bed.
"Before today, I had been thinking about this question. Why should I live? This is a really difficult question, and although I have tried to persuade the wind, I still have no way to answer the question back to myself. Maybe it's because the wind has never harmed anyone, so he can accept it, but it's really hard for a youkai like me, who has been sucking fresh blood since birth, to keep alive. But today, I finally feel that being alive is actually a very happy thing. ”
At this point, the smile on her face deepened again. I looked at her face full of happiness, but I could only desperately hold back my tears and not let myself cry.
"I know it's my retribution for being the way I am. In the previous life, I killed too many people, and countless people died at our hands when he marched and fought, Wu Zixu killed himself with me, and he also died at my hands, and even that woman chose to use me to end her life to bury him in the end. But I don't regret it, Sister Su, I don't regret it at all. I envy Xi Shi for becoming his woman, but the world is so big, only I have been with him from birth to death, I watched him grow up, from a child to an emperor, accompanied him to conquer the north and south, and laughed with him to see the world, this is the supreme glory that only I can get. No matter how painful and unbearable my life is, I never regret being his sword. Later generations said that he was cruel and excessive, lewd and mediocre, but in my eyes, he was not such a person, he was not. They didn't see the helpless look he had when he saw countless people dying at my hands, and those who hadn't experienced the war couldn't understand the pain in it, and these people blindly praised how great the people who had made great achievements in war, but they never thought about how much blood was behind these great feats, and how many families had been torn apart. In this world, not only the life of the emperor is precious, but all the lives that survive in the world are of equal value. He was so tired that he didn't want to see such a cruel scene again, so he gave up. He would rather bear the infamy of a lifetime than try to fight for the survival of his people. ”
