Chapter 83: The Quest (3)
Mu Zhixi finally stopped crying for a long time, looked up at the living person in front of her, and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you really Zishu?"
The man smiled and asked, "Do you think I am?"
"I wish you were, and I want to believe you are." Mu Zhixi replied without hesitation, staring at Nangong Zishu's eyes with two eyes.
"Then there I am." Nangong Zishu also stared at Mu Zhixi, her mood was much calmer than Mu Zhixi, "I want to take you to a place, will you go?" ”
"I'll go, I'll go wherever you go." Nangong Zishu turned around and walked forward, Mu Zhixi was about to follow, but she heard Mo Cheng shouting at her behind her: "Mu ...... Wood girl! You do...... What to do? ”
Mu Zhixi looked back at him, and only said, "Go find my brother Zishu." He left without looking back. Mo Cheng didn't know why, and suddenly he was very anxious, and hurriedly called the nearest businessman. Shang Ling was holding the little fox and could see that he was in his senses, and he was a little relieved of his senses when Mo Cheng called him like this.
"Wood Girl is gone!" Mo Cheng looked at Shang Ling and said anxiously.
"Gone?! Where did it go? Shang Ling was also shocked when he heard it.
"Follow the man whose name is Zi Shu."
"That piece of chase!" Shang Ling turned around and pulled Xuan Zhuyi, and called Mu Jinggong, who was in tears, and followed behind Mo Cheng to find Mu Zhixi's figure.
Mu Zhixi followed behind Nangong Zishu, looking at the familiar back in front of her, she suddenly felt very relieved. She walked a few steps quickly, slowly raised her right hand, and gently pressed her hand against Nangong Zishu's back like a shadow. She seemed to see a very bright flower bloom from the place where her hand was close to her, and she was looking at it intently, but the flower suddenly disappeared, replaced by a fiery red heart. A stream of heat spread from Mu Zhixi's palm, spread to his fingertips, and then spread to his limbs, and gradually, even his heart beat with that heart, and it became hot together. Mu Zhixi was surrounded by this feeling, and when she raised her eyes, Nangong Zishu had turned around and was looking at her affectionately, and Mu Zhixi's hand was not on Nangong Zishu's back at the moment, but on her heart. A kind of heat suddenly filled Mu Zhixi's cheeks, and she was about to withdraw her hand, but Nangong Zishu pressed her hand tightly against her heart with her own hand.
Nangong Zishu: "How does it feel?"
"Huh?" Mu Zhixi was stunned by this sudden question.
Nangong Zishu asked gently again, "What does it feel like to put your hand on my heart?"
"I ...... I do not know. ”
"Then let's hear it."
Mu Zhixi's world seemed to be quiet, and only the sound of two hearts beating could be heard in her ears. First, the "bang-bang-bang" heartbeat from Mu Zhixi's subordinates, and then Mu Zhixi's own beating heart. But gradually, this beating sound only became one, and the two fiery hearts seemed to become one, and the burning feeling also filled Mu Zhixi's whole body. She felt a hint of distraction, a feeling that only Nangong Zishu could give her. A picture flashed through her mind. Nangong Zishu and Mu Zhixi, both when they were young, got rid of the servants and maids who followed them, and secretly ran to a nearby wood. Nangong Zishu walked in front, Mu Zhixi followed behind, the sun was about to set at that time, Mu Zhixi noticed the change in the shadows of the two, and stretched out his little hand to get close to Nangong Zishu's shadow. Mu Zhixi was looking at it happily, but she didn't want Nangong Zishu to suddenly turn around, and he stumbled and put his hand on Nangong Zishu's heart. That was the first time Mu Zhixi experienced the wonder of her heart beating, and at that moment, she could feel that her heart was also beating with Nangong Zishu's heart. Just thinking about it, Mu Zhixi's tears fell unconsciously again, this feeling turned out to be so familiar. It turns out that it is not only the fire that makes people feel burning, but also the throbbing heart. Mu Zhixi once again confirmed that the person in front of her was Nangong Zishu who she was thinking about, and she had long been unable to care about the fact that Nangong Zishu had died in the fire when Mufu slaughtered the mansion. Nangong Zishu suddenly grabbed Mu Zhixi's hand, left his heart, raised his left hand and pointed into the distance: "Xi'er, look there." Mu Zhixi looked in the direction of Nangong Zishu's finger, there was a large lake in the distance, the night sky was like a navy blue curtain, the surrounding branches and foliage covered the twinkling stars, and the wind blew at night, bringing a fresh breath, like the refreshing fragrance of the trees soaked in the rain, which made people intoxicated. Nangong Zishu took Mu Zhixi's hand and walked to the lake, there was no shelter directly above the lake, Mu Zhixi looked at the water in the lake as if he was looking at the starry night sky. Nangong Zishu took out a jade pendant from his waist and threw it towards the center of the lake, which suddenly flashed with silver points of light. These silver points of light followed the ripples on the surface of the lake, and in a short time, the entire surface of the lake shimmered silver, and after a while, the silver gradually turned blue. Mu Zhixi was shocked by the scene in front of her, staring intently at her every move on the lake. Mo Cheng chased after a few people, and when he saw the faint blue light on the surface of the lake from a distance, he couldn't help but stop.
"Is it pretty?" Nangong Zishu's warm and jade-like voice sounded in Mu Zhixi's ears.
"Beautiful." Mu Zhixi was already fascinated by the scenery in front of her and couldn't take her eyes off it.
"Do you like it?"
"I like it, I like it."
"Then I'll be relieved." Hearing Nangong Zishu's words, he seemed to be a little happy, and a smile bloomed on his face. But after this sentence, Mu Zhixi also felt loosened in her hand, as if something had taken off her palm. She looked back, but saw Nangong Zishu take off her hand, leave her with a very sweet smile, and jump into the blue water. This blow seemed to come too suddenly, and Mu Zhixi didn't react for a while. When she reacted, she jumped into the lake without hesitation. The stunned people in the distance saw Mu Zhixi's intention to jump into the lake at first, but before she could reach out and grab Mu Zhixi, she had already jumped into the lake.
"Sister!" Mu Jinggong went crazy on the shore after Mu Zhixi jumped into the lake, and broke free from Feng Xunyi, who was holding her, and wanted to fly into the lake to find Mu Zhixi. Shang Ling was still holding the red fox in his hand, Ouyang Ruolin was helping Feng Xunyi to control Mu Jinggong on the side, and only Xuan Zhuyi and Mo Cheng could go to the lake at this moment. Before Xuan Zhuyi was ready to jump into the lake to save people, with a "poof", Mo Cheng had already gone down to the lake. With these lakes that emit a faint blue light, it is not as clear as the surface of the lake, but it is very clear. The world in the lake is much quieter than the outside world. Mo Cheng looked for Mu Zhixi's figure everywhere and saw Mu Zhixi in a dark blue surrounding. Mu Zhixi stopped there, and not far from Mu Zhixi was Nangong Zishu. Mo Cheng swam to Mu Zhixi's side in one go, and got into the dark blue. The strange thing is that Mo Cheng in the blue can breathe at will and can open his mouth to speak, as if he is not in the water. He looked at Mu Zhixi beside him and Nangong Zishu opposite Mu Zhixi, and said nothing. Mu Zhixi didn't seem to care at all that Mo Cheng was next to her, she just looked at Nangong Zishu in front of her quietly, and she didn't say a word.
Nangong Zishu: "He's here, I should go."
Mu Zhixi: "What did you say?" Where are you going? ”
Nangong Zishu: "Go where I should go."
Mu Zhixi: "I'll go with you!"
Nangong Zishu: "No, that's not where you should go."
Mu Zhixi: "I don't care, since I, Mu Zhixi, am already married to you, so where you go, I should go."
Nangong Zishu: "Xi'er, there are some places you can't go."
Mu Zhixi: "I just need to follow you, don't worry, I won't cause you trouble, I just need to follow you."
Nangong Zishu: "Xi'er, there are some things you should always face, just like me, you have to forget."
Mu Zhixi: "Forget? You made me forget about you? How is this possible?! Have you forgotten me? But why did you forget that I came back to me? If you can't forget me, why do you want me to forget you?! ”
Nangong Zishu: "Xi'er, I came back to you because you have always put me in your most precious memory, but I am no longer the original me." The fire in Mufu is also in your memory, in fact, I should have left a long time ago. On the one hand, my appearance today is because of this water realm, and on the other hand, it is your obsession. Xi'er, in fact, I don't want to let go of you, I'd rather become a wisp of soul and stay by your side forever, but I know that it is selfish, although it satisfies my wishes, but it will not be good for your future. I can't let me live my whole life in grief and pain, you know? ”
Mu Zhixi: "But you are also selfish now, you are self-righteous and fulfilling, but I don't know that what I want most is actually for you to be by my side with me, even if you are just my obsession, even if it is just a wisp of soul......"
"Xi'er, forget about the past, people always have to start over, and they always have to keep looking forward. People in the past, forget about the past, as long as you live well and live happily, we will be relieved. Saying this, Nangong Zishu's body slowly became transparent until it disappeared. Mu Zhixi cried and ran in the direction where Nangong Zishu disappeared, but she didn't catch anything. The barrier formed by the gathering of dark blue light also lost its effect at the moment when Nangong Zishu disappeared, and gradually water poured in, Mo Cheng ran to Mu Zhixi's side and pulled her and said, "Mu girl, let's go, the water is about to flood in!"
Mu Zhixi didn't look back and said, "It's better to come in, so I can go to him."
Mo Cheng: "Don't you want to think about your sister?" If it weren't for Brother Xun Yi and Miss Ouyang pulling her, she would have jumped down to accompany you! ”
Hearing her sister, Mu Zhixi felt a little moved in her heart. The barrier couldn't resist the surging water at all, and a large wave of water flooded in, and Mu Zhixi choked defenselessly. Mo Cheng hurriedly hugged Mu Zhixi and swam towards the lake. Mu Zhixi, who was lying in Mo Cheng's arms, heard the sound of heartbeat again, she put her hand on her heart, and the whole world seemed to be only these two hearts beating, gradually, the two hearts merged into one, and Mu Zhixi's ears could only hear a rhythmic beat.
"What is this?" Mu Zhixi asked herself in her heart, "Why is it that familiar feeling again?" Mu Zhixi only felt dizzy, and it happened that this person gave her some inexplicable sense of security, so she fell asleep in Mo Cheng's arms. The faint blue light shrank from the surface of the lake to the bottom of the lake, and the light around Mo Cheng and Mu Zhixi was about to disappear. The people standing on the shore were anxiously worried about the safety of the people in the lake, and the people in the lake also tried their best to swim towards the lake. I don't know who she saw in her dream, and I don't know if the feeling that Mo Cheng brought her was the last memory left by Nangong Zishu, in short, when everyone saw Mu Zhixi again, a faint smile appeared on her face.
