Chapter 43: Awakening from a Long Dream
"Although I don't know what it is, I still thank you!" Shen Lijue looked at Qing Lan gratefully holding the package, Qing Lan showed a row of big white teeth, smiled symbolically, a little confident and a little cheap, and waved casually with one hand on her waist and the other at will: "Remember the last sentence, no matter what happens, don't commit suicide, you are a kind girl, God has no intention of killing you, you should not give up on yourself, the road ahead is long, no matter how hard it is, it will eventually give you the answer you want."

Do you know what I want...... Shen Lijue sighed softly in his heart, but Qinglan always smiled heartily and confidently, and his lightness made Shen Lijue envious. She stared straight at the girl in front of her who was about her age, and a sudden intuition made her more and more suspicious of this person's gender, but no matter how she saw that Lan was a lovely girl, she decided that this inexplicable feeling was just an illusion.
Looking back, since she was a child, she had strange feelings about seeing and hearing things, which was intuition when she recognized it, and delusional when she denied it, and that illusion reminded her to believe too much in what her eyes saw. But there had never been a moment when she paid attention to a person who was all the more ordinary on the surface.
But for some reason, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that Qing Lan's eyes were sometimes compassionate, sometimes free, that face was sometimes very kind, sometimes difficult to approach, she couldn't tell what that inexplicable aura was......
Thinking of what Qinglan said, she couldn't help but think of her mother before she died, "No matter what you encounter, you must be strong, believe in your mother, hold on, there will be a beautiful future waiting for you." Promise your mother, no matter what...... To live...... Let your mother see that you are doing well, and let your mother feel at ease...... No matter how sad the future may be, remember, life is like a dream, and your road is still ......" when the words echoed in her mind again, and her thoughts could not help but drift to the eaves where she used to sit when she was a child, but the ordinary day was still very clear years later.
At the beginning of the rain that morning, she stared at the blue sky, and suddenly wondered with the strange question: Do gods really exist? The warm wind gently caressed her cheeks, and she was tired of seeing it, so she lay down comfortably......
"Derpy?" Qing Lan stretched out her hand and dangled exaggeratedly in front of her eyes, she suddenly came back to her senses and smiled, Qing Lan was also happy: "What, you are so moved that you can't speak?" There is no need to be so exaggerated, you look in a daze, just like the group of scattered immortals on the ground, hehehehe...... "What is a scattered immortal?" Shen Lijue deliberately rolled his eyes: "It's a messy organization like the Yin Soul Sect?" "Huh?" Qing Lan was stunned for herself when she said it, and quickly put on a smug gesture: "Although they don't obey ...... Me, but they're afraid of me!" confirmed that this time he didn't hold back his mouth, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, Shen Lijue's eyes widened suddenly: "Huh?" Qing Lan was still depressed, was there something wrong, but Shen Lijue laughed suddenly: "You forgot to add the word 'girl me' as usual!" "Eh......" Qing Lan stared at the big beads of sweat that slid down from the eyes of the dead fish, Shen Lijue couldn't help laughing, waved his hand, turned around and ran away energetically.
Qing Lan breathed a sigh of relief, changed back to her original form, and her smile was undiminished: "Fate makes people, but this girl is cheerful and strong, I believe that with me, the sky will live up to her." In fact...... I want to hear her praise a beautiful man, well, forget it. "Aren't you taking a fancy to mortal women?" With a lazy voice, a figure walked out of the room, Qinglan turned around, pretending to be surprised: "Ah, rain god, when did you come to the cold house, you have been with the high-profile empty space for a long time, and your reaction is also slow." "The answer is not what you asked. The rain god dozed off with one hand on his waist and the other on his shoulder: "However, I still like to listen to you, I have been idle in the sky for the past two days, and seeing what you have done in the mortal world, I can't help but think of an old friend, so I can't help but come down and be there." ”
Qing Lan smiled heartlessly, but unceremoniously teased: "The rain god is still as eccentric and ambitious as ever, no wonder he is lonely." The rain god looked down on Qing Lan with a pair of dead fish eyes: "The wind god is unique, and he prefers mortal and married women." Without waiting for Qinglan to speak, she suddenly complained with interest: "The empty shadow has been busy in the sky for two days, and you have been playing in the mortal world for two years. It's fun to be a woman and open a shop? The miscellaneous fairies on the ground are not as idle as you......"
Qing Lan suddenly remembered something, looked up at the sky, and frowned slightly: "Sooner or later, the sky will know that it will tear me to pieces, alas, what should I do?" The rain god looked at some pedestrians coming and going casually, and suddenly asked: "Why did you save that woman, just out of compassion? Qinglan was silent for a moment before saying, "She shouldn't die." The rain god complained casually: "This is the business of the god of death...... Qing Lan thought thoughtfully: "Her affair with King Cai can't be finished yet." The rain god sulked and continued: "This is the matter that the old man is in charge of...... The chess god sells his face to you, otherwise you are finished. ”
When Qing Lan heard this, she was calm and smiled: "He doesn't dare to do anything to me, and I don't interfere with his plan." As soon as the calm words fell, he remembered the great fear again, and immediately burst into tears: "The point is that Kongkong knows that I am finished! He wants to help King Cai ascend to the throne, and I saved the person who may kill King Cai at any time!"
The rain god wrote "boring" on his face, and looked at Qing Lan with a helpless look: "I have to perform my own tasks and take care of the mundane affairs and worry about the empty shadow, you live really hard, I am too lazy to die for mortals, I will never understand a fool like the river god, it is just troublesome to die~" After that, he walked to the bed behind him and lay down lazily.
Unexpectedly, Qinglan's topic changed suddenly, the smile on the corner of her mouth was still the same, but the topic was heavy: "Why did the river god fall into such an end, I want to know the truth............" The rain god opened his eyes suddenly: "You want to know the truth?" What can it be?" Qinglan just smiled: "Curious!" The rain god was forced out of his long-lost drooping eyes by these two words: "Okay......"
At dusk, Shen Lijue, who had been on the road for a day, had already arrived at an inn, and opened the baggage that Qing Lan gave her with curiosity, and the contents shocked her again!
A handsome men's dress, a fresh and lovely women's dress, a dagger, a bottle of poison, and a hundred taels of silver...... Attach another note: There is love to depend on each other, no love to kill each other, hatred, true feelings, all in this heart, no harm to fate, I just wish to be worthy of my heart and not regret this life. It's hard to imagine how you sometimes take shortcuts and fly off the wall, in order not to be chased by thieves, and to store physical strength while keeping a low profile, take a hundred taels to buy a horse~
"So you know everything...... doubts in her heart finally settled, she fully believed all her instincts, and smiled: "You are really a god!" Recalling Qinglan's voice and smile in the past two years, she felt a wave of warmth welling up in her heart, but she was puzzled by a question: can ...... Why did you choose to spend two years helping me......
"She is like a deceased friend of mine. After listening to the story of the river god, Qinglan also answered the rain god's initial question truthfully. "Shangguan Yunmeng, who was used by the chess god and scattered his soul?" recalled that year, the rain god sighed lightly: "For her fate, not only are you compassionate, but the time and space god is also full of resentment and unwillingness, no wonder you will spend two years with Shen Lijue's girl." "She's not an ordinary person like Yun Meng," Qing Lan looked in the direction where Shen Lijue was going, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a hint of relief: "If Kongkong knew her, he wouldn't blame me for meddling, after all, he is also a nosy wonder, cold on the outside and hot on the inside, principled, and has seen the desolation of the reincarnation of cause and effect in the world, but he has always raised the bar with fate." ”
"You are all strange people," the rain god looked at Qinglan, who was beginning to be distraught, and spit out quietly: "You won't fall in love with that girl because of this, will you?" Qinglan looked at the afterglow on the horizon and smiled faintly: "Will it be......"
Early the next morning-
"Drive, drive, drive, ......" Shen Lijue was dressed in men's clothes and whipped quickly. On the way to Tokyo, she recalled from time to time his illusory figure in the autumn rain, and now that she learned that he was not dead, she guessed that he had not left any evidence of assassination after he had cheated his death, and the emperor only thought that he was sick and died, so he did not hunt her down, and at that time he had left the palace of King Cai, who was wounded. After she thought about it, she felt that he chose to cheat death at that time, first, to deceive her, and secondly, to deceive the emperor, but most of it should be related to the emperor, so he should have conspired with the most trusted forces around him to set up more bureaus after cheating, as for why, I don't know.
Zhao seemed to deceive me, because he was afraid that I would be implicated in the bad way? That's why he gave me the antidote that day, knowing that I would definitely kill him? He had such a good intention? Or was it a deeper conspiracy, he knew that my strength was not enough to kill him, and I underestimated him too much...... Full of resentment, she couldn't control her thoughts, and she couldn't calm down, but she still came up with the idea of stabbing again: It seems that this time she has to outwit it!
Zhao Ru, you are really a master of playing with feelings, whether it is for me or the emperor...... Recalling all the things that Zhao seemed to her to the emperor over the years, she shook her head with a disappointed face: I didn't know so late that the most insidious thing was not the emperor, but you...... For whatever reason, from the day you learned to cheat, you are no longer the person I married!
[End of memory]
The waning moon outside the window faded away, Xiaofeng penetrated through the crack in the window, she opened her eyes slightly, and met his sleeping face again, she realized that she was thinking about a lot of past things, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep and had a long dream, as if she had relived all these years. On the side, Zhao seemed to be hugging her tightly, and the long sword that Zhao seemed to be wearing was not far away, but at that moment, she was still difficult to start. The person who was determined at that time in the dream was not at all like her at this time, and she recalled the note, and became more and more dazed......
