426 Affection
Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Lord Shenwu to say such a thing to himself, "Lord Shenwu, you misunderstood...... I...... I practiced sorcery with her, but I was ...... Just to be able to better slay demons in the future! ”
"yes, I know." Lord Shenwu nodded, and said nothing more, turned around and returned to the hut, leaving Xuanyuan Huangdi alone to stand in place.
Chu Qiao, who was in the spirit array, only felt that a white light flashed in front of him, and his body seemed to be light, and everything around him changed in a blink of an eye, although he was still standing on the top of a mountain, it was obviously not the place he was just now.
"This is ......" Chu Qiao hurriedly looked around, she was still in the spirit array, and a little girl outside the spirit array was staring at her.
"Are you the guest who visited the mother?" The little girl's immature voice sounded in Chu Qiao's ears, and Chu Qiao came back to his senses, stepped out of the spirit array in a few steps, and walked to the little girl's side, "Little girl, I just want to visit the great god Nuwa, where is she?" ”
"Well, you come with me. Niang Niang asked me to meet you here early in the morning. The little girl nodded with Chu Qiao, turned around and left, Chu Qiao hurriedly followed, and the two walked along the mountain path one after the other, and walked into a quiet valley, where there was also a thatched house, and a melodious piano sound was heard from a distance.
Hearing the sound of the piano, Chu Qiao was still a little impatient, but slowly calmed down, there was a small stream flowing outside the thatched house, and at the end of the stream was a mountain waterfall, and on the big bluestone next to the stream, there was a woman in white who was sitting with her bare hands gently plucking the strings.
Chu Qiao couldn't help but stop, not daring to step forward and disturb the woman in white to play the piano.
And the little girl who led Chu Qiao over didn't know where she had gone at the moment, leaving Chu Qiao alone to listen to the sound of the piano quietly.
Finally, the woman in white finished the song, stood up slowly, and showed a shallow smile to Chu Qiao from afar.
From the woman in white, Chu Qiao did not feel the slightest coercion of spiritual power. If he met her elsewhere, Chu Qiao would only treat her as an ordinary human woman, and when she stood up, Chu Qiao found that she was not standing on the ground, the white dress that was lying on the ground covered her feet, and there was a layer of spiritual mist at her feet, and she was suspended on the ground.
"Great God Nuwa!" Chu Qiao walked a few steps and walked in front of Nuwa, seeing Nuwa's clear eyes, I don't know why, a feeling of wanting to get close to her came out of my heart, and the grievances and sorrows in my heart also surfaced, and her eyes were red, and she was about to bow down to Nuwa.
"Xuannu, don't do this." Nuwa gently held her hand, Chu Qiao couldn't bow anymore, looked up at Nuwa, no wonder the woman in front of her would be called the mother of the human race, and no wonder Taiqing would let herself come to find her, seeing her, Rao is Chu Qiao would also have a feeling of wanting to bow and worship.
"God Nuwa, I want to ask you to help me!" Chu Qiao looked at Nuwa with begging eyes, "I know that I have made such a request to you too much, and you are not obliged to help me with this, but I really have no other way but to beg you!" ”
Nuwa nodded, "Xuannu, I already calculated that you would come." ”
"You...... Count me coming? Chu Qiao looked at Nuwa with a little surprise, could it be that the great god Nuwa had been able to peek through the heavens?
"Hehe, it's not to the point of peeking into the sky." Nuwa seemed to see what Chu Qiao was thinking, and said with a smile, "It's just that I can deduce some things a little, and I can't be regarded as a peek into the heavens." ”
Chu Qiao didn't ask anymore, she looked at Nuwa quietly, since Nuwa already knew the purpose of her trip, then, if Nuwa could help her, she would definitely help her! If she can't, there's no other way for her.
Nuwa was silent, as if thinking about something.
"Xuannu, in fact, before you arrived, I was still thinking about whether I could help you." Nuwa spoke.
Chu Qiao hurriedly looked up at Nuwa, "Great God ......"
"Tongtian is indeed not dead." Nuwa continued.
As soon as she heard Nuwa's words, a boulder in Chu Qiao's heart finally fell with a "bang", and a huge joy rushed up, almost making her dizzy.
In her heart, Nuwa's words kept impacting, and her uncontrollable tears flowed down in an uproar, but there was a smile on her face, "Tongtian is not dead......
"Well, but you want to bring him back to life...... But it doesn't work. The words Nuwa said then made the smile on Chu Qiao's face that had not had time to bloom freeze again, "Great God Nuwa, no matter what the price is, I can do it!" If only you could help me save him! By the way, his demon pill is in my body, does he need it? If he needs it, you take it! What else does he need? Whatever else he needs, I can give it! ”
Nuwa shook her head, "Xuannu, there are some things, I can't help it!" Tongtian is destined to have this catastrophe. ”
"No!" Chu Qiao shouted, "Didn't you say he wasn't dead?" Why can't you save him? How do you know without giving it a try? ”
Nuwa pondered for a long time before she said, "If you really insist on saving him, it's not impossible, but ...... You're afraid you'll have to make some sacrifices. ”
"I'm not afraid of sacrifice! Even if I exchange my life for the life of the heavens, it's okay! Chu Qiao hurriedly said, "Really! ”
"I believe in you." Nuwa nodded, "Then I have to wronged you and make a blood pact with me." ”
"Make a blood pact? Is that...... What the? Chu Qiao looked at Nuwa puzzled, she really hadn't heard of what the so-called blood contract was.
"It's to become my contract spirit animal." Nuwa glanced at Chu Qiao, "You and I must be connected by blood before we can cast a formation and summon the spirit of Tongtian, but the difference between your strength and mine is too far, so if I give you my essence blood, then you will become my contract spirit animal." ”
Speaking of contract spirit beasts, Chu Qiao had heard of them, but such legends were all negative. That is, the spirit beast is enslaved by more powerful monks in some way.
But Chu Qiao didn't think about it so much at all now, and immediately agreed, "Great God Nuwa, I am willing to be your contract spirit beast!" ”
"You don't regret it? Perhaps, you will lose your freedom. Nuwa thought about it and couldn't help but remind Chu Qiaodao.
Chu Qiao shook his head, "It's better to lose your freedom than to lose your life!" As long as Tongtian can live, what does it matter if I lose my freedom? I do! ”
"Okay......" Nuwa sighed, "I can't guarantee it!" That is, you may be my contract spirit beast, and you can't save Tongtian, it's too late for you to regret it now! ”
"No regrets!" Chu Qiao looked at Nuwa firmly.
Nuwa looked at Chu Qiao and sighed, "I counted this blood fate between us, so I know you won't refuse, but ...... I don't know if our summoning array has been successful. In other words, we are more likely to fail. ”
"Even if there is a chance of success, I will not give up!" Chu Qiao's brows tightened, she chose to believe in Nuwa for no reason, she believed that Nuwa would not lie to her.
"Three years later...... With my strength, it will take three years before this summoning spirit array can be arranged, after all, the spirit of Tongtian is very powerful, and ordinary summoning spirit arrays cannot summon his spirit over. Nuwa said, "So, you still have three years to choose." If you regret it after three years, that's okay. I will respect your choice. ”
"Hmm." Chu Qiao nodded, "God Nuwa, thank you!" ”
Saying that, Chu Qiao seriously bowed down to Nuwa this time.
Nuwa didn't refuse, and waved her hand at Chu Qiao, "You go back, come back in three years, in fact, I hope you don't come in three years, I'm afraid you will be disappointed." ”
Chu Qiao didn't speak again, and gave another salute to Nuwa, and then carefully retreated.
After Chu Qiao left, a man dressed in white walked out of the hut, looked at the direction of Chu Qiao's departure, and asked, "The fate between you and her is inseparable, why do you embarrass yourself like this?" ”
Nuwa turned her head to look at the man, although she still had a gentle smile on her face, there was still a trace of melancholy in her eyes, "I'm not embarrassed by myself, I just feel that the fate of the Xuannu is too much, just pity this child." ”
"Hehe......" the man said with an indifferent smile, "Nuwa, we can't even see through our own destiny, how can we arbitrarily judge the destiny of others?" Perhaps, these trials and tribulations are also an experience for her, and only through these experiences can she finally embark on the ultimate path like us. ”
Nuwa nodded, "Perhaps...... Right. ”
Chu Qiao left the valley, and the little girl who had just brought her over appeared again, staring at Chu Qiao with big watery eyes and said, "Niangniang promised to help you, right?" ”
Chu Qiao nodded, "Hmm." ”
"Niangniang's heart is the kindest, I know that she will definitely agree." The little girl's childish voice carried a touch of joy, and she seemed to be happy for Chu Qiao. "Are you going back now?"
"yes, yes." Chu Qiao nodded, "Can you send me back?" ”
"That's fine." The little girl smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Sister, you are so beautiful!" Except for Niangniang, you are the best-looking person I have ever met. ”
Chu Qiao subconsciously touched his face and said with a smile, "I really don't think I'm good-looking." ”
"Sister, will you be Cen Cen's sister in the future?" The little girl suddenly said, "Cen Cen likes you very much. ”
Chu Qiao smiled and nodded, "Okay, you will be my sister in the future, I don't have a sister, I only have an older brother." ”
"What's your name? Sister. The little girl asked again.
"My name is Xuannu, Cen Cen, I won't come back until three years, and I'll take you to my brother when the time comes." Chu Qiao couldn't help but touch the little girl's chubby face and said with a smile.
"Hmm!" The little girl jumped up very happily, "I have an older brother and a younger sister!" Cen Cen is not alone anymore! ”
When Chu Qiao reappeared in the Spirit Array of Shenwu Mountain, Xuanyuan Huangdi was still standing outside the Spirit Array and guarding.
"You...... Why are you still here? Chu Qiao looked at Xuanyuan Huangdi with some surprise.
Xuanyuan Huangdi glanced at Chu Qiao angrily, "I'm just bored and have nowhere to go, so I'm just standing here." I thought you'd die! ”
"Oh." Chu Qiao replied and walked out of the spirit array. "Not dead."
Xuanyuan Huangdi couldn't help but ask behind Chu Qiao, "Did Nuwa Niangniang promise to help you?" ”
"Well, yes." Chu Qiao smiled rarely, "However, we have to wait for three years." ”
"What exactly are you asking your mother to do for you?" Xuanyuan couldn't help but ask.
"Save someone." Chu Qiao thought of Tongtian, and his face was a little bad again.
"Who are you?" Xuanyuan continued to ask.
"It's none of your business." Chu Qiao's voice cooled, "This is my own business, I hope you don't care about it so much." ”
So, Xuanyuan Huangdi kept following behind Chu Qiao and didn't say anything more.
Back in the hut, Chu Qiao thanked Lord Shenwu and said that he would come back in three years, and then left.
"Where are you going?" Xuanyuan Huangdi kept following behind Chu Qiao, "Don't forget your promise!" ”
Chu Qiao's body stiffened, "I will stay in your tribe, don't worry, I will teach you all the cultivation techniques you want to learn, and I will not break my word." ”
Xuanyuan Huangdi heard Chu Qiao say this, but he was a little embarrassed, and said after a while, "I didn't mean that......"
So, Chu Qiao really lived in the tribe under Shenwu Mountain, collecting fruits with the women in the tribe every day, and sometimes helping the men hunt, and gradually, the people in the tribe also regarded Chu Qiao as one of them.
After all, everyone likes beautiful things, and with such a good-looking girl in the tribe, the men feel much more energetic than ever to work!
The shack of Xuanyuan Huangdi was next to Chu Qiao, and the two of them often went to Shenwu Mountain, saying that they were going to visit Lord Shenwu, but in fact, they were going to a secluded place on Shenwu Mountain to cultivate, where the aura was also very abundant, which was very suitable for cultivation.
The old patriarch was very pleased that Xuanyuan Huangdi actually stayed in the tribe honestly and did not propose to go out to practice, and his attitude towards Chu Qiao was much better.
On this day, when Xuanyuan finished vomiting and opened his eyes, he just saw Chu Qiao sitting next to him, her perfect side face, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and the tenderness and joy flashed in her eyes, I don't know what I was thinking.
Xuanyuan Huangdi had never seen Chu Qiao like this, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
However, Chu Qiao quickly noticed Xuanyuan Huangdi's eyes, sobered up, frowned, and said, "What are you looking at?" ”
Xuanyuan Huangdi retracted his gaze a little embarrassed, and asked after a while, "What were you thinking just now?" ”
Chu Qiao has been with this "apprentice" of hers for a long time, and she is not really angry, originally she is not an indifferent character, so she replied casually, "I remembered some things from the past." ”
"Oh, can you tell me about it?" Xuanyuan couldn't help but ask.
Chu Qiao glanced over and said with a smile, "Why are you suddenly so concerned about my little demon?" ”
"Master...... Don't make fun of me! Xuanyuan Huangdi called out embarrassedly, although he didn't have a formal apprenticeship, but at the request of Lord Shenwu, he still called Chu Qiao "Master", "Aren't I now without prejudice?" Besides, Nuwa Niangniang didn't say that you are a demon, you are not a demon. ”
"Well, I'm a spirit animal." Chu Qiao nodded thoughtfully, "It shouldn't be a demon, right?" ”
"Master, tell me what you were thinking just now?" Xuanyuan couldn't help but sit down beside Chu Qiao and secretly looked at Chu Qiao.
"Hey...... I was thinking about that bastard. Chu Qiao sighed, "I don't know why, I can't help but think about him, when he was by my side before, I hated him very much, and I wished he died, but when he really died...... I'm sad again, sad ......"
"That man...... Is that the one you're trying to save? Xuanyuan lowered his head and asked.
Chu Qiao nodded, "Yes, he risked his life to protect me, and I also want to save him, even if it is at the cost of my life." ”
"Between you...... There's a lot of stories going on, right? ”
"You want to hear it?" Chu Qiao glanced at Xuanyuan Huangdi in surprise.
"Master, I'll keep it a secret for you! Won't tell anyone! Xuanyuan raised a palm and made an oath, "How uncomfortable you are holding in your heart, say it!" ”
"Hehe......" Chu Qiao couldn't help but smile, "Actually, when I first started with him, I was really an enemy......
Chu Qiao began to recall that when he met Tongtian, he designed her brother to separate their brother and sister, and then told the bits and pieces between her and Tongtian, for five hundred years, they were inseparable and dependent, she hated him from the beginning, to the end of the inexplicable care, until finally, he died, and she was heartbroken.
"Between me and him, that's it." Chu Qiao didn't notice that there were tears flashing in the corners of her eyes, and Xuanyuan Huang subconsciously stretched out his fingers, wanting to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes for her.
When his hand touched Chu Qiao's face, he suddenly felt a tremble, that feeling, indescribable, the whole soul was about to leave the body in this trembling!
"What's wrong with you?" Chu Qiao turned his head and saw Xuanyuan Huangdi's appearance like this, looked at him strangely and said, "Your face is not very good." ”
Xuanyuan silently put down his hand, lowered his head and thought, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he said, "If you save him, do you want to leave here with him?" ”
Chu Qiao nodded, "If the Great God of Nuwa allows me to leave, I will leave here with him, and my brother, the three of us live together, cultivate together, play together, and no one can bully us." By the way, you also have to bring Cen Cen. ”
"What about me?" Xuanyuan asked suddenly.
Chu Qiao was stunned, she really didn't expect Xuanyuan Huangdi to ask this question, "You...... Aren't you going to stay in the tribe? You're going to be a patriarch! ”
"I don't want to be a patriarch!" Xuanyuan turned his head to look at Chu Qiao, "Master, aren't you going to take me with you?" ”
Chu Qiao hesitated for a moment before he said, "Have you ever thought that you are human...... And we...... Neither. ”
Xuanyuan Huangdi is like being struck by lightning, yes...... How did he forget that? Or did he deliberately allow himself to ignore this?
