Volume 1: Huangquan December Chapter 71: The Ambition of Waiting
"Little one, when did you sneak in?"
Looking at the silver-haired woman sitting opposite, Dai Luan was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe. But compared to before, she was much more relaxed, I don't know if it was because she had exhausted the strength to be afraid, or if she really felt that a group of bugs was much more terrible than a woman.
"Uh...... It's been a while. β
Gao Yuejun sneered and asked her, "Do you think that the concubine's body is much more beautiful than those Gu worms?" β
"yesβ" she generously admitted.
"The real body of the concubine, do you want to see it?"
Dai Luan thought for a moment, then shook her head like a rattle.
Sitting at this small table, Luan and Gao Yuejun face to face. She felt that the woman might have discovered her a long time ago, but she hadn't revealed it in the presence of the man.
"Do you know who the concubine is?"
Ah Luan shook his head honestly again, and then asked her:
"At least I don't think you're any ordinary person. It's either a big monster that's very powerful, or it's ...... The six realms of impermanence are like that. She cautiously probed.
Gao Yuejun pursed her mouth again, stretching out her hands to support her cheeks.
"The little villain is very smart."
"Huh" Luan sat forward a little, "Are you really impermanent?" Qinglize's impermanence, isn't it just ......"
She just laughed and didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence. Dai Luan didn't get excited for a while, and sighed again:
"My master, they're looking for you...... They want to know where the ghosts are. But a youkai took the form of our friend and attacked him, and I got lost with them. β
"Your master, isn't that Taoist priest who is in the sky? That friend, isn't he the Lord of a Hundred Bones? β
"You're really Gao Yue-kun! In this world, is there really anything you don't know? β
"In this world, the doubts of the world will always be more than the answers. Concubines, not omniscient, butβomniscient. Don't worry, the concubine has already met them, and they will return safely. β
She bit the word "may" a little harder. Ah Luan felt that she must have real skills, not that she was born with some divine power. Her hand under the table rubbed the corner of her clothes, a little anxious. But she didn't know what to do, what to say, in order to convince Gao Yuejun to let her go back. Listening to the conversation between the two before, Ah Luan always felt that this woman was not a good person.
"Really? That's good......"
"Do you know why the children of the concubines dare not come near you?"
"I don't know."
"You have a sachet on you, which is mixed with some rare medicinal herbs to repel insects and ward off evil spirits. Moreover, it masks your scent...... If the concubine's children don't come to report the news, the concubine won't know that you have mixed in here. β
"I see......"
Gao Yuejun's eyes looked her up and down, one hand still dragging her face, and the other hand reached forward.
"The concubine has no intention of making things difficult for you...... How about you give the sachet to the concubine, and the concubine will send you back? What's more, as a price for answering questions, your sister of the Snow Yan Sect may have promised to give it to me. β
Dai Luan frowned, a little embarrassed. She felt that Gao Yuejun would not lie to her, but she didn't want to give her Mu Wan's things like thisβwhat if she lied to herself? And Mu Wan said that this sachet was carried by her when she was very young, and it was of great significance, just like her peachwood sword and peace lock. The sword was taken away by Shanhai, and she may not be willing to change it.
Safety Lock......
"I don't want to give it to you because it's not mine...... Can you change it? I will give you my peace locks, pure silver. β
After speaking, Ah Luan clumsily untied the peace lock from his body. The lock had faded again, and the cracks were a little blackened, but not as bad as before, and the bird was still clearly visible. Gao Yuejun took her things, glanced at them casually, smiled, and pushed her back again.
"Do you see that the statue of the concubine lacks these things?"
She raised her hands, and the silver ornaments on her body clanged. They were all shiny and shiny, glowing beautifully in the dark holes. The ornaments were more delicate and beautiful than the ones she had seen in the silver shop before.
"There is no shortage of ......"
Dai Luan was a little deflated and rested her chin on the cold table. Gao Yuejun stretched out his hand and rubbed it on her head, as kind as a relative.
"But your sincerity, the concubine can see it clearly. You're doing it right, and that's good...... Anyway, the concubine body, I am not in a hurry to ask your sister to ask for it, these promised things will be concubines sooner or later. β
But I really want to go back. Ah Luan thought secretly, silent, his face still spread on the table.
"The concubine really likes you, you are cuter than my children. Why don't you think about it again, what else is willing to take out and exchange? β
"But I don't have anything of value," Luan sighed as he pulled out his two empty pockets, "I want something at home." Why don't you send me back first, and I write a letter to ask them to send some money? Really, I mean what I say. β
Gao Yuejun shook his head slightly.
"Then do you see that the concubine looks like she is short of money?"
"Well, it's not like that."
Ah Luan put his face on the table.
"Concubines don't love money."
"That's what the rich say."
"That's nature," Gao Yuejun stretched and leaned back, "but the concubine prefers what is important to people." β
Ah Luan raised his face, used his chin as a fulcrum again, and asked stupidly, "Why?" β
"Before the concubine became the six realms of impermanence, I also felt that the hearts of people in the world were fake, and only money was real. But people can pinch their feelings with their own hands for money, even if they are blood relatives. I also think, people, it's really bad, and this money is really dirty. But what's the use? People can't do without people, and people can't do without money. β
Luan nodded slightly in agreement.
"I think again, maybe everything in this world, except for people and people's money, is true."
"You mean...... The scenery of the rivers and mountains? β
"Yes. Mountains, rocks, rivers and ice, birds and animals, flowers, birds, fish and insects...... Which is not more beautiful than people, and which is not more true than money? The concubine likes these insects more and more, they are good-looking, and they are not bad-eyed, unlike people - they are only struggling for survival, they just want to live, and they will not die for three taels of money. Raised well, they can also help you do everything you want. Well, you might call this a witchcraft, and that's fine...... The more the concubine raises her body, the more she likes it, the more she raises it, and even feeds Gu with her body, so that her own body also becomes a Gu pool. β
"Uhh......hh Aren't you in pain? β
This is probably the state of going crazy. Ah Luan broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, but he didn't dare to say anything.
"It hurts. It's painful and itchy, and it hurts to pick out the gall and tear out the heart. But this is much more pleasant than the suffering of human life and the pain of getting along with others. β
"Well, what about later?"
Later, the concubine's body was hollowed out, leaving a pair of scarred skins, and everyone had to scold, fear, and hide when they saw it. Later, his body was filled with Gu worms, and there was no place for his soul. But at that time, the name of the concubine was still in the book of life and death, and the concubine was still alive as a 'person', and she couldn't die, and she ended up with a world where she couldn't go to the world. β
"So, the Lord of Naluo, let you be impermanent?"
"Hmm...... Sort of. However, thanks to the introduction of the benefactor. β
Ah Luan remembered that she called the man's benefactor before, maybe it was him. Perhaps, he is also a six-way impermanence. She didn't know much about the impermanence ghosts, she was just guessing, and she didn't want to ask anything. Now she only vaguely understands why Gao Yuejun likes the things that people cherish - these things are much more interesting than the people and money themselves. What's more, the study of some spells can indeed be used.
"Ah, something important......"
Ah Luan suddenly remembered that she still had such a thing, in addition to the peace lock.
Before going out during the day, she hesitated to carry the medicine box. Mu Wan said that she wanted to walk the mountain road, and she was carrying trouble, so she didn't bring it. But after thinking about it, she took Bai Qiong's wrench out of the small drawer before leaving.
She held the wrench in her hand, handed it to Gao Yuejun slowly, and reluctantly spread her hand.
Two light spirit butterflies flew over and landed on the ring. They flapped their wings twice, picked up their wrenches, and handed them to Satsuki-kun's hand.
"Zhu Tong."
As soon as she opened her mouth, a small spider fell from her, cut the thread on its own, and fell to the ground. A girl suddenly stood up from that position and smiled sweetly at Luan. The girl was dressed in white and pink satin, and in the whole cold cavern, she exuded the sweetness of that smile. It's just that her eyes are very dark and dark, without a trace of whiteness, like two hollows with a fine light, which is a little scary.
"Yes."
Ah Luan immediately heard that it was the voice of the girl who had talked to Gao Yuejun at the beginning. Could it be that she had been there just now?
"You know where her master is, send her back."
"Yes."
The little girl known as Zhu Tong bowed deeply to Gao Yuejun, walked around the table, and stretched out her hand to Ah Luan.
After following her for a few steps, Gao Yuejun suddenly called Ah Luan, and she looked back at her.
"Little girl, you really don't want to see the true face of the concubine?"
"No, no, no, I got my kindness."
She immediately gently pushed Zhu Tong's back, and both the little girl and Gao Yuejun laughed.
And after the two left, Gao Yuejun's smile never dissipated on his face. A golden-green gecko crawled over her shoulder, twisting its head to look at her. She picked up its tail and stretched her hand away. At this point, it broke its tail and fell to the ground.
Ka Gongduo straightened up and saluted Satsuki-kun with the same respect.
"Adult ......"
Gao Yuejun shook his head, and the silver ornaments on his body clanged. She motioned for him not to speak, just spread one hand out in front of him, the other still dragging her face. She said lazily:
"Bring it to Lord Rotten Moon. Apologize, he's not happy for you. And also...... Go find the cigarette solution. β
Hunter Gongduo bowed his head obediently and stretched out his hands. Gao Yuejun turned his hand around and let the white jade wrench fall into his palm.
"I understand below."
