Chapter 84, once in a thousand years
Day after day, year after year, the living beings in the mountains were disillusioned, and the villagers at the foot of the mountains also walked one after another.
After thousands of years of waiting, after all, I didn't wait for the knife maker's child, the letter was not sent, and the incense was always fragrant, the personal maid of the Huo family was fragrant, and the spirit of the mountain was fragrant.
Every day, what Hanxiang does is to float above the top of the mountain, watching the passers-by.
Later, with the rise of humanity, Hanxiang lost the belief in the incense of the living beings, and could only sleep in the mountains to survive, until today, because of the attraction of "fate", he woke up and came to this Taoist temple.
Trapped in the Elephant Head Mountain because of obsession, he became the spirit of the mountain because of fate, and he waited until now because of his attachment.
Obsession is the letter that was not handed over, the promise, the letter that was not handed over to the swordsmith's child.
The scene is distorted and returns to the elegant Sanqing Taoist Temple, surrounded by faint incense and tea.
"I've been waiting for a long, long time, just to wait for him..."Hanxiang's eyes were deep, as if she had returned to the waiting of a thousand years, the lonely and bitter time.
"A thousand years of waiting because of a promise. Li Yun waved the dust and said lightly: "Or, because of freedom, I have waited for a thousand years, right?"
Hanka nodded.
The letter from the eldest lady of the Huo family is not just a love letter, but also a promise, a promise to Hanxiang's free body.
As long as the letter is handed over to the son of the swordsmith, then Hanxiang is free.
Even if you wait for a thousand years, whether it is the Huo family or the swordsmith family, they have long been submerged in history, but Hanxiang is still the Hanxiang of the Huo family, and it has not become special because she has become the spirit of the mountain, and what is bound by the name of the Huo family's Hanxiang is her soul, not her body.
"You want true freedom, your own name, your own life, not a life tied to the name of the eldest lady of the Huo family. Li Yun said lightly.
"Yes and not quite. Hanxiang nodded, shook her head again, and then sighed: "I want to completely pass on the eldest lady's mind to the swordsmith's son, and it was also that day that I began to yearn for freedom, only to know how beautiful life is, not a walking corpse... No matter what, I want to repay her, this is her last wish before she dies, and I must fulfill it on her behalf. ”
To this day, Hanxiang can't forget the longing eyes of the eldest lady, the desire to get rid of the shackles of the matchmaker's words and the life of her parents, as well as the attachment and love for the son of the swordsmith.
The shackles of the times are preventing this relationship, the door is not right, the household is wrong, there is no parent's order, there is no matchmaker's words, it is a great crime in that dynasty.
Even if the eldest lady wants to pursue the freedom she wants, the love she wants, there is no chance.
Hanxiang's timid and shy look has disappeared, replaced by an incomparably determined look.
No matter how many years she waits, she has to wait, wait until the swordsmith's child comes, even if she has been reincarnated, she has to wait, as long as the reincarnation is still there, then she can wait, then she can wait.
The world is old, just for a promise, waiting for a thousand years, only waiting for the freedom of being a fragrance.
"Waiting here, you don't know how many years you will wait... And you are just a mountain spirit, or a mountain spirit who has lost his divine position, not a true god who is not an immortal existence, maybe in the end your soul is scattered, and you will not wait for any answer. Li Yun said lightly: "Even so, don't you regret it?"
The mountain spirit who has lost the priesthood is no longer a god, but just a more advanced earth binding spirit, even if the earth binding spirit is not obsessed, it will be forced to reincarnate at the moment before dissipation, but the mountain spirit is different, as long as the obsession is still there, then it will not be reincarnated, until the moment of dissipation, if you do not reincarnate, it will dissipate forever.
Either reincarnation, ascension, or...
"I don't regret it, even if it's longer, I'll wait until I can't afford to wait. At this time, Hanxiang smiled shyly, looked at Li Yundao: "Thank you, big brother, for saying so much, no one has spoken to me for many years, I wasn't so bored when the land gods of the surrounding mountains didn't leave, maybe I should go to sleep again... Sorry big brother, the tea is delicious. ”
In this regard, Li Yun can only sigh whether it is worth waiting for so many years of loneliness.
The owner of the letter has been reincarnated I don't know how many times, and she has more choices as a mountain spirit, whether it is reincarnated as a human or ascended to heaven, it is a matter of thought for her, and she doesn't have to care about the promise of the eldest lady of the Huo family, the envelope of the swordsmith's son.
But she still chose to wait, even after a thousand years, when she saw her stupid appearance a thousand years ago, she still made such a choice.
It's a little silly, but it's silly and cute.
"Do you like the current world?" Li Yun suddenly laughed.
Hanxiang nodded honestly and said: "Well, I like it, although Shinto seems to have collapsed, but the people-oriented world is more humane, and people are more in control of their own destiny, I like it even more." ”
"So do you have any wishes, or where do you want to go? Li Yundao.
"But after being obsessed... I want to be reincarnated, in fact, waiting is very, very tiring, waiting for so long, it is simply torture, I hope that in the next life, I am born free. Hanxiang smiled bitterly, if it weren't for the obsession supporting her, she would have chosen to be reincarnated a long time ago.
Reincarnation, cause and effect are not there, and since cause and effect are gone, so is commitment and freedom.
At that time, Hanxiang was no longer Hanxiang, and as Hanxiang, she never got free in her life...
The eldest lady's mind will not be conveyed, and she will always be just one of the ladies who was plundered by the bandits.
Hanxiang felt that she should be able to hold on a little longer...
Looking at Hanxiang with a firm face in front of him, Li Yun said lightly.
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, do you still have any money on you?"
"There's another one..."Hanxiang hesitated, but she still took out a copper coin, anyway, she didn't need money now, and the copper coin she left behind was just to commemorate the time at that time.
Li Yun smiled and took the copper coin.
"Your fate has been answered. ”
The moment he took the copper coin, the system spoke.
"Ding, congratulations to the host, trigger the side quest. ”
"Quest Trigger: Mountain Spirit's Wish. ”
"Reward: One draw. ”
"Failure penalty: None. ”
