Chapter 486: The Dream Returns
Ling Ying'er seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I was only seventeen years old at the time, and Zili was only twenty years old. When I was alive, I was very picky, I loved egg yolks, not egg whites, every time I ate eggs, Zili must put the egg yolks in my bowl, and it took me a long time to learn in the same door that he, like me, did not love egg whites. ”
The clouds under her feet were reckless, and she seemed to have returned to her youth, with a girlish blush on her face, and then said, "Does the boss know why I am so afraid of the demons and the demon cultivators?" ”
Lu Li shook his head, Ling Ying'er's face gradually sank, and said, "That time, our sect masters and brothers went down the mountain in six ways to practice, and went to the mortal world, and Zili and I each led a team to different directions. We heard that a village in the mortal realm was plagued by demons, so we rushed there. I saw with my own eyes the demons in blood-red cloaks killing people and drinking blood, those people... They weren't human at all, and the man at the front, as I still remember, had snake-like eyes. My brothers and I fought back to protect those mortals, but in the end, we all died in that battle, and there was no survivor. ”
Her eyes were filled with fear, and she continued, "Their leader was going to suck all our souls, but luckily I ran fast and escaped to the inn. At this point, I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to him. ”
Her face gradually softened, and she continued: "I don't know if he has remarried immortals for so many years. ”
Lu Li sighed lightly and said, "Bloody Demon Cultivator, there will never be any more." Your husband, he didn't re-marry the immortals, otherwise I wouldn't have let you stay in the store and wait for him for so many years, so don't worry. ”
Ling Ying'er's eyes were shining, and she lowered her head with a smile: "I knew that he was also waiting for me." ”
Cheerful laughter rang out from time to time behind the two, and she turned her eyes to look at it and said gloomily, "I really can't bear you." ”
Lu Li said: "There are always gatherings and dispersions in life, why be sentimental because of this, maybe we will meet again soon." ”
Ling Ying'er patted her chest, with a frightened look on her face: "Then there is no need, everyone who comes to the Mayfly Inn is an unsatisfactory person in the world, and they will meet again... If you can avoid it, you can avoid it. ”
Lu Li smiled and said, "This... Fate, who can say. ”
Ling Ying'er didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so she changed her mind and asked, "Will Lady Youning come back?" ”
Although they all kept silent about her whereabouts, in her heart, she had already decided that the co-owner of the immortals and demons had fallen, and the boss would give up becoming a Buddha and return to the inn when she was sad.
Lu Li's eyes dimmed slightly, his lips tightened into a line, and he said for a long time: "Yes." ”
One hundred years, one thousand two hundred months, thirty-six thousand five hundred days, four hundred thousand hours.
For the 100 years that are fleeting at the fingers of others, for him, it is countless torturous days and nights.
The room on the second floor of the Mayfly Inn was always lit with a candle that refused to be extinguished. illuminated the return of countless heartbroken people in the Three Thousand Realms, but failed to illuminate her way home.
He often put her restored realm soul in front of the desk, played a piano for it, painted a picture, recited a few Buddhist scriptures for it, or chatted a few gossip.
Thinking back to the past, she laughed or cried, angry or sad.
When the song ended, and he was left alone in the empty room, he really understood what it was like for her to face those days and nights alone, and she smiled bitterly and said that she was very good.
If it weren't for death, it would never be born, it would have come true.
Seeing that he was stunned, Ling Ying'er knew that she had said too much, she bit her lower lip and said, "Boss, floating business interest is not all due to love." Besides, even if it falls, there will be reincarnation, and the female monarch of Youning will definitely come back. ”
Reincarnation?
Lu Li bit his inner lip, frowned, and nodded slightly.
After a short while, he said slowly: "It's here, let's go down." ”
"Okay." With every word she spoke, his face darkened, and he didn't dare to speak anymore, for fear that he would poke something again.
The clouds at the foot gradually disperse, this is a small southern city in the mortal world, the city under the foot can be seen everywhere sparkling horizontally and vertically, the boats are painted with red flying green shadows, what grand celebration seems to be held on the shore, the sheng song is boiling, the flow of people is shoulder to shoulder, there is a great tendency to become a curtain.
Ling Ying'er frowned slightly and said, "Today is the Shangsi Festival, and he has fallen today." ”
In the blink of an eye, a group of people landed steadily in an empty courtyard, and the courtyard was small and exquisite. The female ghost walked towards the only room with the lamp on.
Passing through the door, the man he hadn't seen for many years was already drooping and old, with snow-white hair, but he was meticulously tied up in a bun as back then.
There was a plate of small dishes in front of him, he slowly put down the bamboo chopstick, pushed the bowl away, turned around, and lay down on the couch tremblingly.
"Yingying, are you here to pick me up?"
"Ahem... You said that if there is a fall, let me go first, but you have broken your promise. When you are gone, I will understand that those who leave early will be blessed. ”
His voice was desolate, and he didn't know how much misery was contained in so many years of solitude.
He smiled slightly and closed his eyes: "Yingying, I'm here." ”
Ling Ying'er on the side sat on the edge of his couch, and on the couch, Zili's soul floated up.
Ling Ying'er's eyes were full of tears, but her smile was just as good as back then, without any change, and she opened her arms and hugged him tightly.
"Zili, we are finally reunited."
Outside the door, Lu Li raised his eyes to look at the stars, and the guys behind him felt the thick coldness on him and didn't speak. At this time, the onicha had already arrived here.
"Boss Lu." The two ghosts bowed their heads and bowed.
Lu Li nodded and said, "They have been reunited for a long time, can they be reunited for some time?" ”
The ghost said with a smile: "Boss Lu's face is naturally to be given, how about before the rooster crows?" ”
Lu Li smiled and bowed: "Thank you." Then he turned his head to look at the people behind him: "Today coincides with the Mortal Festival, so you can go back to the inn before the rooster crows tomorrow." ”
Xin Fang said: "No, I'll accompany the boss." ”
Zhu Yanwushuang raised a slightly childish smile and said, "I won't go either, the streets are crowded, what's so funny." ”
Lu Li smiled: "Noise, if you don't go, I'll go!" He turned around and walked out of the courtyard slowly.
Xin Fang turned her eyes to look at Ah Zui and said with a smile: "Let's go." ”
Ah drunk ignored him and walked straight to the door: "Don't follow me!" ”
Xin Fang persevered and followed closely: "No, no, there is a demon beast named pervert in the mortal world, and when there are many people, the demon method of "salty pig hand" is implemented towards a beautiful single woman, and I have to guard against it." ”
"Bah, I don't believe it."
"Really!"
As the two left, the people behind them also left together.
The market is bustling with people, and countless smiles are illuminated under the colorful lanterns. Lu Li is clearly in it, but it is incompatible with the heat around him. An indescribable feeling lingered in his chest for a long time, making his expression even more desolate.
At the head of the bridge on the riverbank, a man in plain clothes stood there with an indifferent expression. On the other hand, a delicate woman looked solemn, her eyes shining with indifference.
"Someone is going to jump off the bridge, go and see!"
I don't know who shouted in the crowd, and a large number of mortals rushed to the bottom of the bridge.
"How is it a man?"
"Don't jump! Something to say! An old man stretched out his hand to stop him.
The man didn't look at the crowd, only looked at the woman opposite, and said, "Do you want to go back with me?" ”
The woman looked at him and snorted softly, "I have asked you the same thing before, but how did you answer me?" ”
The man's face was even darker, but he couldn't answer.
The woman smiled, turned her eyes to the lanterns, and replied, "You said that everything in the past was wrong. repay me for saving my life, and you and I should never want to see each other again. If I didn't want to see you again, why did you hold my hand? Why wipe my tears? Why did you put down your sword and cook for me? Why do you stand up for me despite all my injuries! Why give me hope again and again, and break it with my own hands! I cried, I made a fuss, and I knelt on the ground to keep you, but you still left. I used to love you so really, desperately, what did you think of me. ”
"After you left, I lived in a daze, and one day I suddenly found that I no longer seemed to care where you went, how you thought of me, and even couldn't remember the outline of your face except for this plain clothes. It's not easy for me to convince myself to get married, are you coming now, are you going to play with me again and abandon me a second time! ”
A man in the crowd shouted: "Abandon the little girl, wait for someone to get married, you really can, brother!" ”
"Hahahaha." A burst of laughter ensued.
The man's face showed a trace of imperceptible heartache, he stood on the bridge with his hands in his hands, frowned, and said, "I will never abandon you again, let me go." ”
The woman chuckled and looked at him, and said, "If you are sincere, why don't you kneel down and keep it as I did that day?" ”
The man's figure froze, with a hint of anger in his eyes, and he said coldly: "The man has gold under his knees, it was my fault in the past, and I hurt you first, but you..."
Lu Li exhaled lightly, and suddenly rose into the air, appearing in front of the man like a sword blade. A crowd of mortals exclaimed: "Chivalrous! ”
"Look! It's a chivalrous man! ”
He faced the man, his expression was calm, and he said slowly: "After today, you will never have a chance again." He wished she would come back and give him a chance like this woman!
The man frowned: "Who are you!" I don't need outsiders to interfere in my affairs with her! ”
Lu Li hooked his lips slightly and smiled, not only sarcastically in front of this man, but also sarcastically. He turned his fingertips and bounced towards the man's knee, and the man only felt a pain, and subconsciously bent his legs, as if he was about to kneel.
Lu Li said in a low voice: "How you choose, it's up to you." With that, he pointed his foot to the ground, jumped up, and disappeared into the crowd.
"I'm sorry, please forgive me." The man knelt on the ground with a slight bend of his knee.
"You..." The woman shook slightly, tears filled her eyes in an instant, she ran to him in a few steps and threw herself into his arms, the man hugged her tightly, and whispered in her ear: "Never, no separation." ”
At this moment, I only heard a few "whoosh" sounds in my ears, and fire trees and silver flowers suddenly bloomed on both sides of the riverbank. In the dark night, the sky bloomed with purple and red, gorgeous as rotten. The sky seems to be dotted with countless dazzling gems.
In an instant, the crowd rushed towards the river.
The fireworks burned out, and the canopy returned to calm again, and Lu Li was slightly stunned and a little distracted.
A firework once again pierced the sky and soared into the sky, blooming with brilliance. At this moment, Lu Xuanshen suddenly shook, and the realm soul in the storage bag emitted a faint red light, and he subconsciously turned his eyes to look.
At the end of the busy market, a girl with a sword on her back was suddenly illuminated. The girl has clouds and temples, beautiful appearance, and a red lotus fairy blooming in the center of her eyebrows, and her demeanor is like a flowing wind and snow.
Someone on the side shouted, "Shenxiu! Come here! The brothers are all on the boat! No matter how greedy you are, I won't be waiting for you! ”
The girl raised her lips slightly, her voice was like broken jade: "I'm here!" ”
