Sure enough, when the coffin was opened, there was no corpse, only a piece of clothes that Pei Yanxiu usually wore.

"This ...... How could this be? The body of the eldest prince is gone!"

"Su Jue, come and see, these are the spirit flags I saw that night!" Lu Li grabbed those things and handed them to Su Jue, the coffin was not only full of spirit flags, but also a layer of raw rice was spread on top of the clothes, and the clothes were filled with a lot of coins and utensils that were rarely seen, and they even looked weird.

"Xiao Jue, we guessed right, this is the soul-crushing thing. ”

"Soul pressing?" Chaoyun heard a chill down his spine: "What do you mean?"

"That is to say, your young lady is using evil magic, if you don't say where she went, Pei Gongzi will die!"

"I ...... But I don't know where the young lady has gone. ”

Lu Lizhen was furious, clamped Chaoyun's shoulders, and roared: "Don't say it at this time, is it possible that you are also an accomplice, and you also want to go crazy with your young lady?"

"I really don't know! Miss and Gongzi Xie disappeared early in the morning after worshipping last night, and I heard her say that she was leaving Mirage City before, maybe they were out of the city. ”

"Out of town! Where did they go out of town?"

"Miss said that she wanted to follow Gongzi Xie to Guanwai, it should be to the west, I really only know so much, I didn't lie to you!"

Su Jue stopped Lu Li and said, "Girl, you take me to your young lady's room first." ”

Chaoyun no longer shirked, and hurriedly responded with the word 'good'.

The mountains are quiet, except for the sound of gurgling water, you can only hear the faint chirping of cicadas, so the late summer and early autumn are the most intoxicating. The young man sat on the rocks behind him, his eyes closed slightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised with a shallow smile.

"Brother, brother, look at it!" the little girl who ran over was dressed in a floral dress, her hands were clasped together, and she was hurrying in front of the young man with unsteady steps.

"What did Wanwan catch?"

Xie Shu was stunned, this was obviously Yan Xiu's voice, but the words were indeed from his mouth. What's wrong with him, why can't he control his body at all? Or is it not his body at all? He remembers the previous peeling and fleshing, is he dead, and is it just a dream?

"Brother Yanxiu, look. The little girl smiled and spread her hands a little, and the two summer insects flew away from her palms in a flash.

The little girl panicked, and quickly jumped up and pounced: "Brother, they ran, ran!"

"Let's let them fly away, these summer insects flying in the forest are not better looking than being trapped in the hands of Wanwan. ”

"But ......"

"They finally go through the four seasons and break out of the cocoon, but they can't live for a short seven days, and it would be too cruel for Wanwan to keep them in the palm of her hand. ”

"Don't live for seven days?" the little girl pouted, and asked with a rare wistful, "Does that mean that they will die in seven days?"

The boy nodded, his eyes following the fireflies scattered through the forest.

"Then brother, tell me, what is death?"

The boy looked at the stars shining in the sky, and people said that when the immortal god died, he would turn into the stars in the sky, while the mortal would fall into the netherworld, waiting for the next life to be reincarnated.

Thinking of his deceased relatives, the young man said slowly: "Death is to disappear, that is, there is nothing, as if you can no longer see these summer insects." ”

"Nothing, just can't see anything?"

"Hmm. ”

The little girl's eyes were full of tears, which made the boy laugh, and he leaned over and pinched her face, and said softly, "Why is my little Wanwan crying?" ”

"That Wanwan doesn't want Brother Zixiao to die!" she threw herself into the man's arms and cried even louder: "I don't want to see Brother Yanxiu, I want Brother Yanxiu to stay by my side all the time!"

Xie Shu was stunned, this was Yanxiu and Yuewan when she was a child, Yuehuan liked to cry at that time, and there was no second person who could coax her except Yanxiu.

Xie Shu opened his mouth and said very emotionally: "Silly girl, how could my brother leave you? No matter what, my brother will definitely stay by Wanwan's side, just like the stars in the sky, as long as Wanwan looks up, she can see that her brother will always be there." ”

"The stars in the sky?" The little girl looked up at the twinkling stars, she stretched out her hand to catch them, and there was only disappointment in the immature children's voice: "But Wanwan can't catch the stars in the sky, I don't want you to catch my brother, I don't want you to be like those stars!"

The young man's expression was gloomy, as if he was immersed in his own memories: "But people are going to die after all." ”

The little girl was silent, and suddenly she remembered the two summer insects that flew away.

"Since they are all going to die, then brother, why do you want to let them fly away?" she looked at her small palms and said with regret: "Next time, Yue'er will never let them fly away again, just like I will never let my brother die." ”

"Wanwan, what nonsense. ”

"Although my brother said that everyone will die, Wanwan just won't let you die, I definitely won't!"

Xie Zhi smiled helplessly, I don't know if I still remember these delays, I can't imagine that this person's childhood nonsense has become a metaphor for the future.

When Su and Lu came back, they still didn't see Meng Qingque's shadow, Su Jue couldn't wait any longer, this person's life was at stake, since he didn't have Meng Qingque's swordsmanship, he had to ride out of the city. Lu Li, this kid, originally wanted to come with him, but Jiang Yan didn't allow it, and knocked Lu Li out with a cigarette.

"It's okay if this kid doesn't come, it's too much of a hindrance to talk along the way. ”

"Miss Yue wants to be alone with Brother Su, just say it, why bother to detain this name on our Xiaoli?"

"I ......" Yue Qianlong, who was seen through at a glance, blushed, and hurriedly argued: "Who said that I wanted to be alone with him, didn't you let Lu leave? ”

"There's not much time, let's talk about it. ”

"Don't worry, don't panic, the two of them must not have run far, I happen to have two good horses here, a thousand miles a day, I will borrow you today, you have to save my benefactor from Xiaoli, don't want him to never be reborn." ”

Su Jue responded, went to the backyard and led the horse and went with Yue Qianlong.

Just out of Chang'an encountered days of rain, although the road was muddy, but they still rushed to the west day and night, but in just two days ran out of more than 100 miles, until close to the Liangzhou boundary Pei Yuewan stopped the car, stayed in an inn called Fengyanyi. Pei Yuewan sat next to several cases after closing the door, even if she was extremely tired, she still endured her sleepiness. Xie Zhi hasn't been awake much in the past two days, and even if his eyes are open, his eyes are scattered, as if he has no consciousness.

Pei Yuewan walked to the bed, she stretched out her hand and traced the outline of this person with her fingertips, this eyebrows, this charm...... Everything shows that the person in front of him is no longer Xie Zhen. Pei Yuewan frowned, inexplicably a little melancholy, she only hoped that this person could still speak a few words to herself, even if it was just a few words. His thoughts gradually drifted away, and Pei Yue, who was extremely tired, fell down on the side of the bed, and fell asleep after a while.

"Yue'er ......"

It seemed that someone was calling her, Pei Yuewan tried hard to open her eyes, but her body seemed to be dissolved, and she was not half conscious, only her consciousness was still awake.

"Yue'er, come here, come to my brother. ”

A house appeared in front of him, and this furnishing was obviously Pei Yanxiu's room. The man's large bed was covered with several layers of thick quilts, and a little baby with a red rope on his head lay on the bed, babbling and not knowing what to say. And the young man in front of her was only eleven or twelve years old, and he was bowing down, clapping his palms from time to time, and called: "My little Yue'er, come to my brother quickly." ”

Seeing the boy stretch out his hand, the child struggled to stand up, she pulled the curtain beside her, and finally took a small step.

"Yue'er, Yue'er...... My little Yue'er can actually walk!"

"Brother. She called out urgently: "Brother, wait for me, wait for Yue'er! Brother-"

Pei Yuewan opened her eyes suddenly, and what she saw after focusing on her made her dumbfounded.

"What's wrong with Yue'er?"

"Brother, brother...... Are you really my brother?"

The man smiled stunned and asked, "Why, Yue'er doesn't even know me anymore." ”

"Is it really you? You're back!"

The young man reached out and probed his forehead, "Is Yue'er sick, why are you talking nonsense?"

The woman pounced on him, holding him for a long time and refusing to let go.

Pei Yanxiu didn't dare to move, until she felt a thin coldness in her neck, then stroked her back and asked, "Why is Yue'er crying?"

"I thought you would never wake up again, never talk to me again, never smile at me again!"

The man's movements froze, and his voice was a little choked: "How could it be? I told Yue'er when I was a child, I would be like a star in the sky, no matter what, I would be there." ”

Hearing this, she really believed that this person was Pei Yanxiu, the person she had been thinking about!

"What about your body? Is your body okay? Is there anything wrong with you? You ......"

The man stopped Pei Yuewan's movements and comforted: "What's wrong with Yue'er, I said some strange things today, haven't I always been fine?"

"It's okay, it's okay, nothing, I'll pour you a cup of tea first. Pei Yuewan was holding the teapot, thinking about how to explain the whole thing. Could it be that as soon as he woke up, he had forgotten all about the previous ones? Could it be that Xie Zhi had really completely turned into Pei Yanxiu? As soon as he didn't notice it, the tea overflowed from the cup and spread all over the table. Pei Yuewan was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled a silk silk to clean up.

"Yue'er, do you have something to hide from me?"

"I ......" hesitated, but she still said: "Brother, you are sick, very sick, and the doctors in the city say that no matter what, you will not survive this winter." ”

She didn't know where this person's memory point was, so she had no choice but to test it first.
