Chapter 464: The Road to Yellow Springs
Mu Yunyi crouched beside Mu Xiu, looking at this face that he missed day and night close at hand, and touched his eyebrow bones, eyelashes, the bridge of his nose, and then his cold pale lips with his fingers.
"You just want to be Mu Xiu, so give up the opportunity to unlock the twin Gu again and again. Mu Xiu, Mu Xiu, you are transparent and clever in everything, why are you so brainless this time? ”
"What if you don't remember me? What if you forget all about the past? You don't know me, so I will meet you again and make you fall in love with me again! ”
"In the past, you always followed my footsteps and stayed by my side, why didn't you give me this opportunity when you replaced me? Do you not believe me, or do you not believe in yourself? ”
"The ruthless killer who didn't like to talk when I first arrived at Prince Shun's Mansion, the boy who braved the heavy snow for me to pick plum blossoms outside the city and sent me to send me, the retainer of Prince Shun's Mansion who accompanied me away to Dongzhao without hesitation, the person who sacrificed his life for me in the Huangling Underground Palace, the person who pulled me out of the illusion in the stone mound, the person who said that he would never let go of me again in this life, the figure I never let go of in my heart, from beginning to end, it was you."
"As a result, you chose the most stupid method, and chose to leave this world with Mu Xiu's memories, which is really cruel."
Suddenly, Mu Yunyi smiled, laughing indulgently and dotingly, "Okay, in the past, you followed me in everything, but this time I will follow you." ”
At this time, Mu Xiu, who had never been silent, oozed a drop of crystal from the tail of his eyes.
"Mu Xiu, you can hear me, right?"
Mu Yunyi reached out to touch the tear, but the next moment the warmth on her fingertips turned scarlet.
"Mu Xiu, Mu Xiu!"
It turned out that blood began to seep out with tears, from the tips of the eyes to the frontotemporal area, and finally to the sideburns and under the pillow.
When Mu Yunyi remembered it, Xiaojing recounted Wuyong's words: When the bleeding from the mouth and nose progressed to the bleeding of the ears and eyes......
She panicked after all, and her trembling hands tried to wipe away the scary scarlet, but she found that no matter how to wipe it, she couldn't wipe it clean.
Meng Li, who was outside the door, heard Mu Yunyi's exclamation, knowing that Mu Xiu's deadline was approaching, and subconsciously wanted to rush in, but Mu Yunduo stopped him and shook his head to signal not to go in.
At noon, a beam of sunlight shone through the window, shining on Mu Xiu's face and the back of Mu Yunyi's hand.
Suddenly, a picture rushed into my mind: that time, Mu Xiu "died" in the sea of fire in the mountain behind the imperial mausoleum, and she lay down in front of the stele on the night Mu Xiu was buried, until now I remember that night, the moonlight sprinkled on the tombstone was as cold as frost, so that for a long time later, she even had night and moonlight.
Now I realized at this moment that even the sun can be lifeless, even the warm heat can be so desperate.
"Mu Xiu, is your time up?"
"You don't want to live without memories, but I don't want to live with memories of you......"
The corners of Mu Yunyi's mouth slowly pulled up the corners of her mouth, and she smiled sadly.
"But what to do, if there is no memory of you, I am no longer me."
Mu Yunyi leaned his face closer to Mu Xiu little by little, and gently covered his lips.
Mu Yunduo and Meng Li, who were looking at the situation inside worriedly outside the crack in the door, saw this scene and hurriedly withdrew their gaze in embarrassment, and each glanced away.
"Ahem......"
"Uh......"
When Mu Yunyi raised her head again, the corners of her mouth appeared again with the arc she had when she appeared today, it was longing and joy, but this time, Mu Yunduo and Meng Li didn't notice it.
"If there is one less Mu Xiu in the world, there can be one less Mu Yunyi, and this time I will be selfish."
As he spoke, Mu Yunyi quickly stretched out his right hand to his forehead, and pierced his eyebrows with the nail of his index finger, and the pain of devouring his heart followed.
In an instant, blood dripped down her forehead and nose bones, and fell on the corners of Mu Xiu's eyes and lips, which were also oozing blood, and her eyes also had burning tears pouring out, and everything in front of her turned red in an instant.
At this time, Mu Yunduo casually glanced into the room, what he saw was his sister's back, but he instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and suddenly his heartbeat and thinking stopped, and only a cry welled up from his chest: "Sister!" And the body instinctively pushed open the door and threw himself into the inner room.
Boom!
Hearing Mu Yunduo's exclamation, Meng Li turned his head and saw what looked like a mad beast desperately pushing open the door and rushing in the direction of the inner room.
Before realizing what was happening, Meng Li had already rushed in
As Mu Yunduo knelt on the side of the bed and hugged Mu Yunyi, Meng Li saw Mu Yunyi's face, not only was her eyebrows dripping blood, but her eyes were exactly the same as Mu Xiu's eyes - black and red blood was constantly gushing out from the corners and tips of her eyes.
Then Mu Yunduo and Meng Li heard Mu Yunyi's whisper, which was a whisper to the person in front of them, and it was also a farewell to the world.
"Mu Xiu, I'm here."
"Sister!"
……
……
……
In the midst of the chaos and darkness, there is a road that does not know where it starts and where it ends, and there is a figure on the road who is slowly moving forward.
Mu Yunyi clearly remembered that not long ago, he saw Mu Xiu's departure in the bamboo courtyard of Wankong Mountain, and he also sent himself out of this world, so where is he now?
There was no light around, but Mu Yunyi could see his outstretched hand and the endless "lake" on both sides of the road, it seemed that he had been used to this darkness for a long time, but no matter how Mu Yunyi thought about it, he couldn't remember how he came here and when he came.
The water of the lake caught her attention, and she could clearly see the fluctuations of the lake, but there was no sound of water waves, so she crouched down and approached, and saw her own vague reflection on the surface of the lake, except for a red mark on the center of her eyebrows, which was no different from her ordinary appearance.
Could it be that after people die, they will really be conscious? And under your feet is the road to the Yellow Springs Difu? What about Mu Xiu? Has he already gone before himself?
Mu Yunyi subconsciously slowed down her steps, not caring about the many questions in her heart, she just wanted to find Mu Xiu quickly.
I don't know how long she walked, Mu Yunyi saw a thumb-sized spot of light faintly appear in front of her, so she followed the light and chased after it.
"Mu Xiu?"
She opened her mouth to call, but no one answered, and there was no sound of wind, no water, not even an echo of herself.
But as he moved forward, the originally illusory spot of light became brighter and brighter, and even a figure appeared in the light.
"Mu Xiu! Is that you? ”
However, the person in the light always turned his back to her, no movement, no response.
So Mu Yunyi ran forward even more desperately, and just a few steps away from that person, she stretched out her hand to touch the back.
"Mu Xiu, are you waiting for me?"
