Chapter 22: A Suicide Note
"Renjie, where are all the places you mentioned? Can you draw a map for me? Tang Ying asked eagerly, now she is the only one who can find out.
Di Renjie hurriedly spread out a set of drawings inserted on the side of the desk, "It's all marked!" Ah Ying, I'll go with you. ”
"Nope." Tang Ying slapped his hand on the map and said to him solemnly, "Have you forgotten what kind of means that person has?" You are different from me, I am alone, but you still have a wife and children, and you can't risk yourself. ”
Di Renjie furrowed his eyebrows and rolled up the map, "Even so, you are not allowed to go!" ”
Tang Ying smiled helplessly, "What kind of angry words is this, although you can't accompany me to remove the demon, you also have other important tasks." You have a wide range of friends, and you can help me gather some high-ranking people. If that man rises up, we won't be overwhelmed. ”
Di Renjie looked at her and said with some distress: "Ah Ying, it's hard for you all these years." In her impression, she followed Di Renjie, everything was taken care of, she never suffered anything, and now everything depends on herself.
Tang Ying also patted him on the shoulder, "I think it is my destiny to inherit Chunfeng's will to protect Chang'an and protect the Tang Dynasty." I must not fail his request! ”
Di Renjie nodded with emotion, and suddenly jumped up as if he remembered something, "I almost forgot!" Chunfeng also left something for me! You wait. ”
He went into the back room and took out an oily paper bag from under the bed, and after opening it, it was the package that Li Chunfeng entrusted to him back then.
"Is it?" Tang Ying took the package excitedly, and even suspected that Li Chunfeng had the foresight to entrust Bai Zetu to Di Renjie. But on second thought, with his kindness, such a dangerous thing would definitely not be entrusted to a friend.
Di Renjie helped her unwrap the package, "I haven't seen what is inside, it's just that Chunfeng said that there is no Bai Zetu." ”
The package was opened, and inside were several thread-bound books. Spread it out and take a look, there was "stargazing, magic" written on the book cover, and there was no title, Tang Ying opened it and found that it was his diary!
She didn't dare to look at it, for fear that the memory would flood and shatter her strength, so she closed the book as if nothing happened. There were also a lot of gold leaf and a letter under the book, and she took them out one by one, put them on her lap and touched them gently.
Di Renjie smiled: "Look, Chunfeng still cares about your bad life in the future." "In fact, Tang Ying is really not short of money in the palace, but Li Chunfeng is afraid that she will not be able to make a living when she leaves the palace, so she is fully prepared.
You remember that a few years ago, they planned to leave Chang'an, and she also joked that catching ghosts made money to buy him wine and drink. Presumably he's been saving money since then, right?
Thinking of the silly happiness of the past, she couldn't help laughing, but in the blink of an eye, the sadness was blocked in her throat and it was difficult to swallow.
Seeing this, Di Renjie hurriedly changed the topic, "Don't you read Chunfeng's letter?" ”
Tang Ying nodded. She was a little suspicious of another letter of resignation, so she was reluctant to open it. Still, curiosity prevailed, and she eventually unfolded the letter and read it sentence by sentence.
"Tang Ying and my wife. Presumably, on the day this letter was opened, you and I were separated by yin and yang. I hereby hand over this letter to Renjie for safekeeping, because there are some things that need to be hidden from you for your husband, don't be surprised.
At this moment, it is difficult to sustain the fragmentation of Fu Neidan, and he wants to try the longevity technique to continue his life, but because there is only one chance for success or failure, he can't bear to give up you and take risks. However, there will always be death, and then I will naturally try my best. I just wonder if my wife will be by my side at that time? If you are not there, you will come back to find you when you are successful.
The husband feels that one year is enough, and if there is no news of the husband by then......"
Tang Ying stopped and closed his eyes for a while, lest he would cry when he saw something like "remarriage". Di Renjie silently pinched her shoulders, she barely squeezed out a smile, and slowly unfolded the folded letter again.
"If there is no news of your husband at that time, you can go to Qianling and make a simple magic circle in the following way, and maybe you can return to your original world realm......
Tang Ying's eyes widened suddenly, this move startled Di Renjie, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" You speak, alas, you really make me anxious like this. ”
"It's nothing, it's nothing......" Tang Ying responded, and took the letter a little higher, and read this paragraph twice repeatedly. According to the magic circle recorded in the letter, it should be that Li Chunfeng found a certain aura that matched Tang Ying very well during the Battle of Qianling, and it is estimated that it is the place where Tang Ying crossed over. He thought that adding some spells and magic circles to adjust the aura to a certain state might reopen the door connecting the two planes.
Tang Ying recalled that when he and Yuan Tiangang were trapped in the yin and yang space, he almost returned to the modern era. In this way, Li Chunfeng's speculation is not unreasonable.
Does he want me to go back to the 21st century?
Tang Ying continued to look down, and immediately understood what Li Chunfeng proposed to do. His letter went on to read: "Bai Zetu has been hidden in a proper place for his husband. As for Ming Chongyan and Datang Qi, it is no longer up to the two of us to control it, and my wife should not fight for her life. For a long time, the husband thought that he was shouldering a heavy responsibility and his beloved wife suffered with him, and when he was dying, he felt a big dream. Back then, Bai Ze instructed Chunfeng to 'don't be a cocoon and self-restraint', but today he realized it, but it was too late. I hope that my beloved wife will not suffer herself, only peace and joy can reassure her husband. ”
Tang Ying couldn't help but sigh when he looked at it, as Li Chunfeng said, maybe he didn't care too much about his mission, maybe they could live a little easier.
"A thousand words, it's hard to express your heart. You and I have achieved a strange fate across the millennium, and Chunfeng always thinks of it. If there is another immortal fate, Yu Miao Xinghan will eventually meet again. If you end this life, Chunfeng is willing to turn into mist, do not cultivate the immortal path, do not fall into hell, and float in the world to protect you forever. Ah Ying, cherish. The inscription is his handsome name and the unique symbol between them - ":)".
Tang Ying folded the letter and choked and hugged it in his arms. Di Renjie looked at her like a knife, wanting to comfort her, but he didn't know where to start. However, she did not cry, and after a few deep breaths, she folded the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope. The letters and gold leaf were placed back in the package in an orderly manner.
Seeing that her behavior was beyond common sense, Di Renjie was a little worried that she was suffocating, so he hurriedly got up and poured her a cup of hot water, and comforted: "Ah Ying." Let's have a friend, you can say it if you want to, cry if you want to cry, don't hold it in your heart. ”
Tang Ying tied the package, patted it, raised his face and replied with a smile: "Renjie, don't worry, I'm fine." Di Renjie didn't look like she was pretending to be relaxed, but he still couldn't believe it, how could the woman who read her lover's suicide note have this reaction.
Tang Ying saw his face in disbelief and explained: "In the past two years, I have also given up on myself and have been in a trance. But I saw Chun Fengxin and saw him telling me to live well. Shouldn't I listen to him and let his spirit in heaven rest assured? ”
