Chapter 29: Soul Dreams
When I woke up, it was dawn.
Yuwen Qi sat beside me at night, extremely quiet. I opened my eyes and tried to wake him up, but I couldn't shake him up.
"Hey, Yuwen Qiye, what's wrong with you, wake up!"
His back was against the rock wall, his face pale. I couldn't wake him up no matter how I shook it, and I put one hand on his forehead, and the hot temperature made my heart beat suddenly, and helplessness and panic hit me instantly.
"Ah...... Ah......"
I felt the vibration as I shook, and he was saying something indistinct in his mouth that I couldn't hear clearly.
Turning over his body, I was stunned for a long time. I don't know how he managed to hold on to what he said to me, and how I didn't realize that he was actually very badly injured:
The knife wound on his back had been torn open, and blood was bubbling up. He was also struck by a short arrow in the shoulder, which had been driven deep into his flesh as he fell down the hill at the same time as me, and the blood congealed near the short arrow, and the slightest movement would add a painful hideousness to his unconscious expression.
"Ah...... Ah...... "His moaning voice was very weak, and I ran out of the cave when he was in pain, and his nose was sore.
At the beginning of the day, I looked around, and there was no movement. The first rays of the morning sun shone down, and the trees in the mountains and forests returned to their original appearance, without the horror of the midnight wind.
Gritting my teeth, I returned to the cave, struggled to carry him on my back, and made my way out with difficulty.
His body was hot, like flames burning in my back. He was tall and strong, and I was crumbling as if I was being crushed by a mountain. Every few strenuous steps I had to stop and rest.
I felt like I had walked for a long time with him on my back, and when I looked back, I realized that I had only walked a few more steps away. The way back seems to be out of sight.
"Little ...... Little Black ......" His voice sounded behind him, very faint, "What are you doing......
I gritted my teeth and moved forward with him on my back: "Chief, immortality hasn't come yet...... You won't be able to hold it up if you stay there...... I, I'll carry you to the temple first......"
I looked down slightly at the ground, reflecting the figure of me carrying him on my back. The two shadows, one tall and one short, overlapped, and I exerted my strength and dragged him forward a few steps.
"Princess!" came a cry not far away.
I hurriedly looked up and saw a man in black wearing a hat walking towards me, and I somehow thought I had seen it somewhere.
When I got closer, it wasn't Changsheng, so I asked him suspiciously, "Who are you?"
Seeing that I was on guard, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I am a retainer in General Yuwen's mansion, and when I saw that the general did not return overnight, I came out to look for it." Princess, leave the general to me. ”
Yuwen Qiye on his back fell into a coma again, I glanced at him a few times, and said suspiciously: "You go to the front to open the way, I will carry him on my back." ”
He was slightly stunned, and then bowed his head: "Yes!"
He walked in front, and I followed, slowly all the way. The heavy steps stepped on the dead branches and leaves on the ground, making a crisp sound.
The man in black looked back from time to time, probably because he saw that my dignified princess was actually carrying his general, and he couldn't bear it, and the expression on his face was quite complicated.
I saw that he was bored, so I stopped and tried to chat with him: "How many years have you been in Yuwen Mansion?"
"Back to the princess, the last general will follow the general for three years. ”
I bowed my head slightly, stared at his hat for a long time, and then said with a smile: "Your general is really prescient, you found it when you saw the mark outside the Guose Tianxiang Building, right?"
Without thinking, he spoke: "Back to the princess, exactly." ”
I didn't answer, and walked silently with my head down.
He walked over: "Princess, let me carry the general." ”
I was a spirit, and I subconsciously went to hide. At this moment, there was another shout from behind: "Princess!"
I heard the shouting and didn't look back, and the man next to me was stunned and pulled his hand into his arms.
I quickly shouted behind the man: "General!" He turned back suddenly, and I took advantage of his unpreparedness to put Qi Ye on the ground, and quickly stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and grabbed the man in black by the throat from behind.
"Don't move!" I said coldly, "Who are you?"
In the distance, Changsheng hurried over with a team of Jin Wuwei, looking at me holding the man in black hostage, he was stunned at first, and then frightened: "Princess, be careful behind your back!"
"Why--" Countless dark arrows flew out of the forest in an instant. I let go, and he fell to the ground, a silver arrow grazing my cheek and taking my gaze.
At the last moment, I found that Qi Ye was still lying in the rain of arrows. I didn't think about it in a hurry, and I turned over to protect him.
Changsheng and Jin Wuwei quickly arrived, and the expressions on everyone's faces were extremely flustered and anxious. Yuwen Qiye lay under me unharmed, and I looked at the frightened expressions on the faces of the Jin Wuwei, and my heart was suddenly very puzzled.
My back was cold, and I subconsciously turned around, shocked to find a sword shadow with a cold light stabbing at me!
I was so shocked by the sword light that I closed my eyes, and subconsciously clenched Qi Ye's clothes. There was a sharp pain in my back, and as soon as the man exerted his strength, I heard the humming of my bones colliding with the knife.
The second before I closed my eyes, there was a bloody light in my blurred vision.
In the battle of swords and swords, I looked at his sleeping face, my eyes were dark, and my consciousness wandered away from his body......
……
When I opened my eyes again, it was as if I had fallen into a desolate world, floating in the endless void.
There was chaos all around, as if Hongmeng had just opened up, and Eryi had begun to judge.
I tried to move my body, but it was like I was entangled in countless cobwebs, and I couldn't move.
I opened my mouth and felt a fishy sweetness welling up in my throat, but I couldn't make a sound.
Dripping - the sound of water droplets came from nowhere, reaching my heart through my ears.
My entire altar was instantly plunged into a mess.
"You're here......"
The voice of the woman's vicissitudes came from all directions of nothingness, close at hand, and far away from the end of the world.
"Who are you?"
I heard my own voice, like it came from another plane, full of doubts.
"It doesn't matter who I am, it's ...... Who are you?"
Another drop of water fell, dripping into my eyes, causing ripples......
A blurry image appeared in front of my eyes, strange and familiar. The heavy sound of bells from the Xuanji Pagoda echoed in my ears.
"Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate. The sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and moon are shining. The cold comes and the summer comes, and the autumn harvest is hidden in winter. Leap into adulthood, Lu Lu tunes the yang ......"
The cold and solemn mourning hall is filled with the simple smell of sandalwood, and wisps of green smoke stretch in the night. In the smoke, a little girl dressed in plain clothes sat in front of the Boluo Lianhua Spiritual Hall, kneeling for I don't know how long, but her back was still straight.
I heard her mouth open and muttering something that should have been faint, but I could hear it clearly.
"Queen Mother, Yue'er's "Chitose Text" can already be memorized, can you open your eyes and take a look at Yue'er?"
My misty eyes swept inadvertently to the portrait on the wall, framed in a wooden plaque painted with red nanmu, which was particularly evident in the darkness.
I struck a spirit, and the image seemed to have eyes on me, staring at me motionlessly.
Pale face, green silk lips. The woman in the portrait is clearly herself.
In the blink of an eye, the little girl was gone. I saw a long figure standing in front of me.
There was a flute sound in his ears, low and tactful, like crying and complaining, ethereal and light. I feel like I've heard it somewhere, it's familiar, but I can't name it.
I was about to step forward and ask him if he had seen the girl just now, but he turned his head, and the young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes was holding a jade flute, which was very good-looking.
"Ah Yan, I'm leaving, I heard that the moon in Xiliang is very bleak. He said.
I heard him call me Ah Yan, but I clearly remembered that Zhizhi told me that it was Lan Shao's name, so I shook him and said that I was not Ah Yan.
He looked at me helplessly and said, "The woman in the portrait in the Xuanji Pagoda is called Ah Yan, you are exactly the same as her, who are you not Ah Yan?"
I looked at him in amazement, and with a flicker in front of my eyes, I fell into his arms. He smiled beautifully, and his dark eyes were full of gentle smiles.
He said, Ah Yan, you did it on purpose.
I looked up blankly, only to find myself suddenly in the midst of a raging fire.
The blazing fire stained half of the sky, just like a bloody palace.
In despair, I watched as the beams of the house continued to fall to the ground with flames in front of my eyes, and a portrait fell to my feet, engulfed in flames in an instant. As the flames were about to burn the yellowed paper, I could see the woman in the portrait.
I screamed, and ran out of my hair like crazy.
I bumped into a white-clothed figure, with panic in my eyes: "Help me...... Someone's going to kill me!"
I panicked, and the fragrance of Du Ruo lingered in my nose. When I raised my head, I found that it was Shen Zhan, who was dressed in white and snowy, and his demeanor was unparalleled.
"That picture...... The person in the painting is me!"
"What's the painting, who's going to kill you?"
Who's going to kill me? My mind went blank for a moment.
I clung to my clothes and refused to let go, and a sudden gust of wind blew my long hair, and my fiery red clothes swayed in the fierce wind.
A sneer tugged at the corner of my mouth, and I slowly said to Shen Zhan: "That portrait is in your study, you must be trying to kill me, so it's better for us to die together!"
Shen Zhan closed his eyes, his white shirt was ragged, and he was flying in the wind.
The scene in front of me turned into countless phantoms, and he and I kept falling down. He hugged me tightly and sighed softly: "Ah Yan, you did it on purpose. ”
My body shook, as if I had been pierced through my heart by ten thousand arrows in an instant. I grabbed Shen Zhan and opened my mouth to ask something, but the terrible sound of the wind drowned out my scattered words.
Suddenly, we came to a standstill in mid-air, and he and I both fell to a boulder raised in the air on the cliff face. I slipped and fell backwards, and Shen Zhan suddenly reached out a hand and grabbed me tightly.
"Shen Zhan...... Save me......" The wind howled, and behind me was an abyss.
"Save you?" The face in front of him suddenly changed into Lan Shao's hideous appearance, his phoenix eyes rose, and he stared at me viciously: "Gao Xiyue, you go to die! I want you to die!"
"You took everything from me!
She pushed with both hands, and in a defenseless way, I fell into the endless abyss like a bird with broken wings......
"You're not Ah Yan, I'm the one!"
Tick - a drop of cold water droplets dropped in my dusty heart, and the spiritual platform was like being blown by a gust of wind, like waking up from a big dream.
"Who am I......" I muttered to myself, echoing from me all around.
I tilted my head slightly, and found that the clouds and clouds were changing rapidly in the chaos, and in a moment, I was lying in a vast galaxy, surrounded by stars.
"Life is not seen, but it is like participating in business ......"
Heavy snow began to fall from the sky, falling all around me. The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and it was about to bury my whole body. My long hair was blown by the cold wind and messed up in the infinite darkness. There was a flute sound in the heavy snow, and Qingyue echoed, and the flowers and snow flew.
Above my head, there hangs an amber waning moon. The stars faltered in the cold wind, and a ray of light pierced the dark sky.
"You are the most noble princess of the Great Zhou, and you hold the future of the Great Zhou in your hands...... Go back, don't come again, your destined beloved, he's back......"
The sound of the flute stopped abruptly, and a piece of ice and snow fell on the corner of my eye, melting into a drop of water in an instant. Drops of water slid down my cheeks, and I watched the falling meteors above the sky and closed my eyes slightly.
