Chapter 55: Don't say goodbye
The willow tops on the moon gently draped the entire camp with silver veil, the water and the sky are the same color, and they are exceptionally clear and clean. Under the silver moonlight, it is quiet and vibrant, and the air is filled with a fragrant fragrance, and there is no tenderness in addition to poignancy. The white and soft rocky beach on the shore of the lake is dream-like nothingness, but unbelievably real.
Chi You sat quietly by the lake, the feast had long ended, the clansmen had already fallen asleep, and under the erosion of alcohol, the thoughts of Shui Xunmei hit like a stormy wave. I thought that the secret would be the opposite after the revelation, but I didn't expect that when I was really separated, I really realized what my heart wanted.
The moonlight gently spread on Chi You's body, adding a little sorrow, a little helplessness, a little loneliness, lingering.
Xuanyuan Yu watched quietly for a long time, at this moment, she suddenly felt that the man by the lake was a world of his own, and there was not even a place for himself in this world, at this moment, she suddenly didn't dare to go over, and she didn't want to go over. However, the separation is imminent, although he has thought that maybe his departure may not even alarm the slightest fluctuation in Chen Yi's eyes, he is still a little sad and a little angry, as if those clearly known results must be confirmed again and again in order to get a result.
Taking a deep breath, he finally came closer and sat down.
"I'm leaving......" After a long silence, Xuanyuan finally whispered, as if she was afraid that the slightly higher volume would disturb the silence.
"I know......" Chen Yi looked at Xuanyuan Concubine silently, where could he not see the deep attachment and pain in the eyes of the woman next to him, it's just that creation makes people, but how can he be able to help people, after a while, he finally answered lightly.
Although Chen Yi's reaction had already been envisaged, he was still slightly stunned......
"Yu Yan will not let go of this great opportunity, come to think of it, he has now begun to join forces with Xuanyuan to crusade against Jiuli. Chen Yi gently hooked the corners of his lips, but the deeper and deeper arc couldn't reach the bottom of his eyes anyway......
"You know it all?!" Xuanyuan was startled, but she couldn't find the right words to organize her language anyway, "Then why are you still so ......?"
"In your opinion, what should I do?" Chen Yi smiled, he was really a child of the royal family, and he was so protected by others, did he simply think that personal likes and dislikes could change anything?
"At least, you're at least ......" Xuanyuan hesitated, "Why don't you try to stop it?"
"What can I stop?" Chen Yi smiled slightly, "Jiuli has long been the target of everyone, although Xuanyuan and Shennong will have a battle sooner or later, but this battle is after defeating Jiuli, whether it is your father or Emperor Yan, they will not sit idly by and watch Jiuli become stronger and stronger, nor will they put themselves in a situation where they are attacked on their backs, so the two of them will definitely point the finger at Jiuli!"
Xuanyuan Yu was speechless for a while, yes, what Chi You said hit the nail on the head, indeed, Jiuli's rapid growth over the years has attracted the attention of all parties, and it is impossible to let it sit big, so there must be a battle.
"You go back, in the future, whether we are friends or enemies, we must not hesitate to meet on the battlefield......" Chi You smiled slightly, staring at the woman in front of him, his eyes flashed with a faint sadness "After all, the sword has no eyes." ”
The rich sadness instantly enveloped this thin girl, she thought about countless results, but she didn't expect that the two would have a confrontation on this day! Did you really not think about it? Or did you just not want to think about it? There is no way to confirm this question, but at this moment, Xuanyuan Yu actually felt that Chi You's smile was so dazzling, which made her have a feeling of astringent eyes.
"Is it really such a situation?!" Xuanyuan Yu only felt that her voice was dry, and she said with difficulty.
"Should I still have any illusions?" Chen Yi smiled faintly, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised, but the arc of sarcasm was drawn.
"Could it be, can we just sit back and wait for the big war to come?" That smile stung Xuanyuan deeply, making her feel a kind of powerless gloom.
"Zuo is just a soldier to block, water to cover the earth!" Chen Yi smiled disappreliantly, with his unique wind and clouds in his eyes, "These are no longer things that we can change, you go back, if you delay for a long time, I am afraid that something will happen!" After speaking, Chen Yi stood up, turned around and wanted to leave......
Xuanyuan felt a pain in her heart, she clearly knew that she might never see each other again today, but at this moment, she saw her heart more clearly, and she involuntarily grabbed Chen Yi's arm and said, "Isn't there something you care about?"
Chen Yi's heart froze, the wide hem of his clothes was grabbed by Xuanyuan Yu in his hand, giving birth to many folds, just like his state of mind at the moment, he stared at the layers of folds, but his eyes were a little empty, as if he couldn't see the appearance of those folds clearly, and he couldn't count how many layers they were stacked, he was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Naturally!"
"What is it?" Xuanyuan's eyes flickered, and she had some hope.
"I just want to go home...... Chen Yi said lightly, his voice revealing unspeakable desolation......
It has been more than a month since Xuanyuan left and there has been no war in the short term, Chen Yi has been focusing on how to go home these days, and the longer the time goes by, the more desperate Chen Yi becomes, as if every minute and every second is waiting for death. It's just that the approaching time is like the wheel of fate, and it is finally becoming more and more urgent to make a decision.
"Hasn't the Witch King come back yet?" I don't know how many times, Chen Yi looked at the black tiger on the side with an anxious face and asked.
"Return to the general, the Witch King has not come back yet!" The black tiger knelt down gloomily and replied, even at the time of the war, such a disparity in the deployment of troops The general was still calmly strategizing, and he did not see the general so anxious in such a dangerous situation, but in the past few days, it was clear that the general was becoming more and more distracted, and even a trace of restlessness appeared in the air.
The Witch King traveled far away, even the entourage in the Witch King's Mansion did not know his whereabouts, and the generals in the village used great magical powers to explore his breath, but there was no response, thinking about it, according to the Witch King's magical powers, if it was not intended to let others find it, even no one could find his location.
However, in this slightly anxious atmosphere, there was finally a glimmer of hope.
"General!"
Chen Yi was bored in the room, and the boredom of day after day and year after year suppressed the depression in his heart to the critical point of explosion. Hearing the shouting outside the door, I mentioned it in my heart, as if I had a premonition!
"General!" Sure enough, under great joy, the black tiger rushed in before he heard the summons, stepped into the room, knelt on the ground, and said, "General, the witch king is back!"
Even though he already had a premonition in his heart, Chen Yi still didn't control his emotions, stepped out, and said with great joy: "Great, take my name and go to the Witch King's Mansion immediately, just say that I will go to visit immediately!"
"Yes!" the black tiger was overjoyed and immediately withdrew.
Even if you are anxious, the number of etiquette you should have cannot be omitted at all, after all, although the witch king is the witch king of Jiuli, he is more like a spiritual leader, in this regard, he has already competed with Chi You, and he is on an equal footing, so even if he is the leader of a clan, he needs to follow the etiquette when he goes to visit.
The night was as cool as water, and the wind whistled through the long, long, winding boulders and forests, towards the crevices of the distant mountains.
Looking at the figure of the cave entrance from far to near, the Witch King raised his head to look at the huge star map in the void, during this time he paid attention to the changes in the star map, the extremely small star had hit the originally brilliant but undersurging tumbling star at the speed of light, fusing into a star that was not eye-catching, but the foundation was extremely stable, at this moment, sadness flowed slowly between his eyes, a long sigh, and a look of compassion.
"What the general has done is already clear below. The Witch King sat cross-legged on the seat, lowered his eyes and looked at him lightly, as if he had penetrated everything at a glance, and before Chen Yi could speak, he had already said slowly: "It's just that I can't do it, I can't do it in the first place." ”
Chen Yi originally came with enthusiasm, but before he spoke, it was like a basin of cold water poured down, and in an instant, he felt a sense of despair overflowing his heart.
"General, some things are predestined, so why bother asking for it, if you come, you will be safe......" The Witch King's sharp eyes seemed to penetrate the heart of all kinds of direct attacks on Chen Yi in the world.
"It's fate...... Chen Yi muttered to himself, "It's fate...... it's fate"
It was as if in that moment, the world had lost all its colors, the leaves withered on the branches, motionless, and the gray sky overhead reflected the fluctuations of dead silence. Those longings that have gone through countless expectations and endless urgency finally die at this moment......
"Fate is impermanent, creation makes people, the world is a cycle of cause and effect, cause is effect, effect is cause and ......" The witch king's long sigh seemed to knock on Chen Yi's heart, the bottom of his heart seemed to be taken away, the strength of the whole body flowed out along the gap that was opened, the vision gradually blurred, those happy and sad memories, like the blurred mist on the glass window in the deep winter, are unforgettable, but overwhelming.
The stretched body slowly folded against the wall in the sore state, and under the projection of the candle flame, a shadow of an indistinguishable shape was reflected, like a shadow in hell, passing through the most beautiful affection in memory, eroding the originally bright life, reflecting the endless loneliness and coldness of life......
A long sigh......
Sigh for all the faces of this world, sigh for all the pain in this world, and sigh for all the helplessness in this world......
"Hold the general down carefully and serve ......" the Witch King said in a low voice, unable to bear to look at the desperate man in front of him, and he curled up there like that, like a spider struggling in a ball of pine resin, tightly bound by a large web and unable to move, and finally sealed there forever......
The black mist is hazy, and there is no light in this piece of heaven and earth, which seems to be suspended in mid-air, or maybe it is drifting above the ocean, only to feel like a touch of duckweed, floating between this heaven and earth......
