191. [190] Before the grave
Looking at Mu Chen's madness, as if he had changed into a different person, Yao's heart ached.
He also blamed himself to some extent, if he could have appeared earlier, Su Wuxian would not have died.
Every day in the past, Hongling would go to a designated place at a specific time to report to him the situation related to Mu Chen, he didn't want to spy on Mu Chen, but he was afraid that she would be in any danger.
On this day, Hongling didn't show up for a long time, he should have known that something was wrong, but he thought that it was because the army went out and there was something special to take care of in the barracks, so Hongling would not be on time, but after waiting for a long time, Hongling still didn't appear, and he secretly felt that things might be very big.
When he arrived, the barracks was deserted, with the corpses of the soldiers scattered.
It happened to be that time that Gao Yuan and Gao Yi led the mighty army back triumphantly.
Originally, all the soldiers were immersed in the joy of winning the battle, but when they saw that the barracks were destroyed and the defenders died, their smiles peeled off little by little.
When they saw Mu Chen and Su Wuxian covered in blood, lying in a pool of blood, everyone's expressions stiffened.
Yao, Gao Yuan, and Gao Yi rushed over at the same time.
The Gao brothers and Yao did not know each other before, and Gao Yi once asked Yao whether he was an enemy, but Gao Yuan did not hesitate to believe Yao, because the leader of the Cang Ying God Sect was Hongling's life-saving benefactor three years ago, and this alone should believe that he was not a bad person.
And this is not the time to make friends and get to know each other better.
At the beginning of the moment, the three of them were reluctant to touch the pair of lovers on the ground, they snuggled together, with a faint smile on their faces, the kind of poignancy that lasted until death, people couldn't bear to blaspheme.
The three of them glanced at each other, but it turned out that Yao went to probe the breath of the two first, and learned that one was dead and one was injured, and the three of them were mixed with joy and sorrow.
Of course, it is sad for people to die, but it is also happy that there are still survivors.
Gao Yuan immediately ordered people to re-erect the tent, and Gao Yi also assigned people to deal with the current wreckage.
Yao thought carefully that Gao Yuan and Gao Yi should not know about Mu Chen's daughter, so they were responsible for taking care of Mu Chen's injuries on the grounds that they also knew a little about medical skills.
Gao Yuan and Gao Yi were very good at fighting, and when it came to healing, they only knew the basics, and they didn't know whether the doctor who accompanied the army was killed or escaped, so they accepted Yao's mention without saying a word.
As for how Yao, Gao Yuan, and Gao Yi learned about the attack, they would like to thank a few soldiers who were greedy for life and afraid of death but were curious.
These little soldiers, as soon as they saw someone attacking, they fled far away, looking for an obstacle to dodge, only poking out a pair of eyes, even if they were discovered, Long Aotian and Bai Yan would not care about them, so they saw the whole ins and outs in their eyes.
Originally, they wanted to sneak around and pretend not to know, but how could a few little ghosts hide Gao Yi's eyes, and they couldn't hide after being tested for a few words.
Now that Gao Yuan and Gao Yi have settled down in the military camp, they went to Hongling and Ren Shaotian, one to take care of his fiancée, and the other to take care of his good brothers who smell like.
Yao looked at Mu Chen, who was in a trance, and his heart was like a colic stirred by a sword.
He had selfishly thought that if Su Wuxian disappeared, maybe he would be able to circle a place of his own in her heart, but this evil thought only flashed occasionally in the lonely and lonely night.
However, this evil idea actually came true, and he did not have a trace of joy.
He wasn't a man of schadenfreude after all.
Mu Chen's love is still high and low, and tears, sometimes excited, sometimes low.
She trembled her hands, clasped Yao's arm, and kept asking, "Where is Su Wuxie?" I didn't dream, he really didn't die, tell me quickly, where is he......"
Yao couldn't bear her to go on like this, she couldn't extricate herself like this, she would really go crazy.
He slapped her on the back of her neck, and she fell into a deep slump and fell on Yao's shoulder.
Although this method treats the symptoms rather than the root cause, it is the only way to calm her down at this moment.
Yao put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt with pity: "Sleep well." ”
Ren Shaotian and Hongling are still in the same camp tent for the time being, mainly because the camp was destroyed, there are not many camp tents left, it takes time to support a new camp tent, and the other soldiers are many people squeezing into one place to sleep, so Gao Yuan and Gao Yi simply live with Ren Shaotian and Hongling, and the four of them are squeezed a little, but it is convenient to take care of.
At this time, Ren Shaotian and Hongling have already woken up, Hongling has rested for a while, although his vitality is greatly injured, but basic activities such as standing and walking are still okay, but Ren Shaotian is a little pitiful, because the ribs are broken, the internal organs are also damaged, and the right wrist bone is also broken.
The only thing he was glad about was that his lower body was not injured.
That's right, the point is...... The male xing function is still there.
Ren Shaotian was lying on the bed, Hongling was sitting, listening to Gao Yuan and Gao Yi talking about Su Wuxie's death and the situation at that time, and his heart was naturally very uncomfortable.
Especially Ren Shaotian, his relationship with Su Wuxian was closer than that of ordinary family brothers, he couldn't believe that when he was in a coma, Su Wuxian died like this.
But Gao Yi may be joking, but Gao Yuan will not, and even if Gao Yi is joking, he will not joke about life and death, so he has to believe that this is true.
Usually he is very eloquent, and he is silent at the moment, he just listened to Gao Yuan and Gao Yi's words very quietly, and then twisted his head to the side, letting the tears fall wantonly, his right hand was weak with the injury, but his left hand still couldn't help but clench tightly, his fingers sank into the flesh, and he could almost pinch and bleed.
But his bleeding heart had long been occupied by the pain of losing his loved ones, and there was no room for the little pain coming from the palm of his hand.
After a long time, he wiped away his tears before he pretended to be calm and asked, "What about the little man?" Is she okay? ”
Gao Yi replied: "Well, don't worry, Yao is taking care of her, you should take care of yourself here first." ”
When Mu Chen woke up again, Yao was still by his side.
She didn't even mess around excitedly, but calmly cleaned herself, sorted out her makeup, changed into a clean green robe, and ate all the food prepared for her on the table.
During this process, she didn't say a word, as if nothing had happened, which was normal.
It's just that being too calm makes people feel terrible.
Yao wanted to say something comforting several times, but she never said it, it was better for her to be calm than excited, so as not to talk nonsense, so as not to irritate her.
She opened the curtain of the tent, it was morning, the weather was fine, the sun was shining, and the air could smell the fresh smell of rain and sunshine.
She opened her pink lips lightly and asked lightly, "Yao, how many days has it been?" ”
"It's been three days." Yao knew that what she was asking was that Su Wuxian had been dead for a few days.
It's been three days, it turns out that she's been asleep for three days, it's time to face reality.
"Su Wuxie, where is he?" She asked lightly, and her mood seemed to be really calm.
Yao thought that she still refused to believe the fact that Su Wuxian was dead: "Mu Chen, you still have to face the reality, Su Wuxian is dead, really dead." ”
"I know. I'm asking about his tomb. Unexpectedly calm, even Mu Chen himself felt surprised, and he was able to say the words "his tomb" without being shocked.
She knew Su Wuxie's death, the location of the heart was destroyed by Bai Yan and festered, and the corpse could not be kept for a long time, although the appearance was not destroyed, but the festering place was also extremely terrifying for people to see, since it was impossible to bring it back to the capital, it was better to bury it as soon as possible.
Yao and the others must have known this very well, so they should have buried him long ago in three days.
Yao never imagined that Mu Chen would take the initiative to ask where Su Wuxie's tomb was, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he flashed away: "I'll take you there." ”
That place is not far from the mountain that Mu Chen likes to go to, with the mountains and rivers in the back, which is good.
The stone tablet on the head of the tomb is simply engraved with the words "Tomb of Su Wuxie", as well as the date.
Mu Chen stared at the stone tablet for a long time, but he didn't react at all.
Yao was on the side, and he didn't want to bother, but there was one thing that he had to say: "I have discussed with the Gao brothers, and it is more appropriate to engrave your name on the name of the person who erected the monument, but we don't know if you want to engrave it yourself, so we plan to ask your opinion before completing it." ”
"I see." Mu Chen stood in front of the tomb, motionless, cold, and didn't look at Yao directly, "Can you leave for a while and let me be alone?" ”
Yao nodded and turned to leave.
Mu Chen seemed to be thinking about something, and after a long time, Yao Du had already walked away, before she put down the sacrifices and money she brought, pulled out her sword, and waved it.
From the sound of the tip of the sword rubbing against the stone tablet, it could be heard that the speed was so fast and the strength was so strong, but in the blink of an eye, Mu Chen's sword hung down beside him.
The shiny sword body happened to reflect a row of small characters in the lower right corner of the stele: Mu Chen, the person who erected the stele.
She set up the offerings, scattered the money, and then slowly sat down beside the stone tablet and leaned against it.
"Hey, fool, I'm here, I haven't seen you for three days, do you miss me?" She whispered, "I miss you to death." Now, have you gone to the heavenly realm, or have you fallen to the underworld? Wherever you go, I'll look for you. You still don't know, in fact, I am a goddess of the heavenly realm who crossed over, although I don't have the spell to resurrect the dead, but I can die, and I can return to the heavenly realm, so that I can go to you, if you are not in the heavenly realm, I will go to the underworld to find the king of Hades to ask for someone, if you have been reincarnated in the human realm, I will ask the Holy Mother of Yaochi to let me cross again. ”
No wonder she was so calm after waking up today, it turned out that she thought of the trick of dying to return to the heavenly realm.
It was not known whether Su Wuxian had heard her words, but the Holy Mother of Yaochi had heard it clearly in the Heavenly Realm.
Originally, the Holy Mother was just idle and had nothing to do, so she cast some small methods to see how Mu Chen was doing in the human world, who knew that she just saw this scene, and she couldn't be angry.
