Chapter 274: The Great Battle

The psychic old man glanced at her, returned to the wicker chair, and sat down deeply.

Duanmu Qing didn't know why at this time, the word "deep" came to mind in his head, as if he was sitting in a distant time and space.

"Actually, the seal on your body was not placed by someone else, it was placed by the previous Snow Maiden."

The psychic old man sighed, remembering a long time ago.

Duanmu Qing already knew this from the Night Soul, which also showed that the words of the Night Soul were basically true, at least consistent with the words of the psychic old man.

"Why?"

"To protect you." Hearing Duanmu Qing's expected question, the psychic old man also answered as expected.

"Protect me?"

Nodding, he lowered his eyelids, as if trying to hide the sad look in his eyes.

Duanmu Qing's heart was inexplicably gently pulled and ached at this time.

There was an inexplicable sadness spreading in my heart.

There is no reason for this feeling, as if it is an instinct.

Under such a feeling, she unconsciously softened her voice: "What the hell is going on?" ”

Raising her head, the psychic old man looked into her eyes, as if he wanted to see far, far away memories through these eyes.

"The Hidden Country is a strange country, different from all the other countries on the Huatian Continent."

Duanmu Qing frowned slightly, this was expected, on the one hand, as the night soul said, they all had abilities.

On the other hand, it was because she had never heard of this country because she had never heard of it in her two lifetimes.

Both geographically and historically.

"Where is it?"

Hearing Duanmu Qing ask this question, the psychic old man shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Since I came out here, I have been looking for this answer, if I am asked to go back again, even if I die, I will be willing." ”

Duanmu Qing found that when he mentioned the Hidden Kingdom, there were tears shining in the eyes of the psychic old man.

An old man with gray hair, sitting in a dimly lit room, told about his country, his own people, and his past life.

This kind of nostalgia and longing can't help but make people's hearts heavy.

Duanmu Qing's heart was throbbing again, as if it was a sense of belonging from the soul, which made her emotions change with the psychic old man.

"Can't find it?" She asked softly, as if she was afraid of touching the old man's wounds.

Shaking his head, he still didn't raise his eyes, and said with a long sigh: "I was brought out that year, and I didn't know how I was brought out, let alone where I came from.

And the people who brought us out are almost dead. ”

Duanmu Qing frowned, thought about it again and again, and then asked, "What happened back then?" ”

The psychic old man was silent for a while before he raised his head to look at Duanmu Qing, but tears flickered.

That year, Snow Girl said that in the future, the climate would be peaceful, and she wanted to retreat for a year.

We all have great respect for the Snow Maidens, and they are always giving us something to do, which deserves the love of all of us in the country.

So, we have no doubt about what she said.

In fact, as she said, after her retreat, the weather was smooth and everyone was very well.

It's only been a year, and the Snow Maiden is about to get out of the customs, but suddenly out of nowhere, a large number of troops have launched an attack on us.

They are fierce, and we hermit people live and work in peace and contentment all year round, love each other, and even have very few quarrels, so we will not fight at all, and we have never thought that there will be war.

But the Snow Maiden is not there, and then they have to rely on those who can control fire and seal and other domineering abilities to resist them.

But there are so many of them that the ability is extremely hurtful, and they use too many of their abilities, so they can only fall in pieces.

I can't resist it at all. It may be that the sky is about to bring disaster to our hidden country, and the weather has always been very good, and suddenly it snows heavily and freezes for thousands of miles.

Many people in our country simply can't withstand this severe cold, and people fall one after another.

The people sent out to find the Snow Maiden have not been heard from either, and I don't know if they have never been found, or if they have died halfway through.

Gradually, we all lost the ability to fight, and we could only be captured.

It was only at this time that I realized that the group of people was not for anything else, but to arrest our countrymen.

At the time, we didn't know what it was for, but when we came here, we realized that it was because of our own powers, and they wanted us to enslave them. ”

Duanmu Qing's eyes widened suddenly, he never imagined that there would be such a thing.

Let these hidden people with special abilities become tools!

Seeing his frightened expression, the folds on the psychic old man's face seemed to be deeper, and he sighed and said, "In the end, everyone was put on the prison car, and they began to pour medicine on us.

That's how I passed out in a coma, was taken away, and woke up again, and I appeared in this country called Dongli.

Luckily, however, I was with the Fire Cloud of the Fire Control Clan, and she burned down the entire house, leaving a gap for me to escape.

And she herself died of exhaustion because of this fire control.

Later, I fled cautiously all the way, inquiring about the news of the hidden country while avoiding those who were being hunted down.

The strange thing is that no one in Dongli knew about the matter of the hidden country, as if that war had not happened at all.

Later, I fled here, but I was found, and I happened to meet Princess Ling, who had just married at the time, but fortunately she saved my life, so I have been alive until now. ”

Duanmuqing couldn't have imagined that there was such a thing, and at that station back then, just thinking about it knew how thrilling it was.

How cruel it would be to be able to wipe out a whole country and hunt down all its citizens?!

Listening to these words, her heart was like a roaring sea, surging, and her whole heart was torn and ached because of this intensive beating.

Intuitively, Duanmu Qing would not doubt his words in the slightest, because she felt the resonance of her body.

It was a cry of roots.

There was a tragic atmosphere in the room, and neither Duanmu Qing nor the psychic old man continued to speak, but fell into silence, a long silence.

After the silence, Duanmu Qing spoke first: "Then who am I?" ”

The psychic old man raised his sleeve and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes before saying, "Actually, things are not as bad as I imagined, this is what I learned later." ”

When Duanmu Qing heard this, he hurriedly sat up straight: "How do you say this?" ”

"This is what Qiubai found me later and told me."

Duanmu Qing was a little curious: "Qiu Bai was also arrested?" ”

The psychic old man nodded: "Yes, but his luck is better, he is the only son of the Prophecy Clan, and the Prophecy Clan and the Resurrection Clan are the right hand men of the Snow Maiden, just because they have a very important role in our entire Hidden Kingdom."

He was brought to Xiqi because of his prophecy, so the Xiqi Emperor respected him very much and named him a national teacher.

And he found a person who also went to Xiqi to summon spirits, and through him, he found it, but that person was seriously injured by the war, and only found me and another woman and died.

Qiubai told me what happened next.

After some of us were taken away, the Snow Maiden finally arrived, but to everyone's surprise, she appeared with a big belly. ”

Duanmu Qing's heart suddenly rose to his throat again, but his head didn't have any thoughts, waiting for the following.

"The Snow Maiden is the guardian of our Hidden Country, and seeing that the country was destroyed, she urged the Freezing Technique and the Transfer Technique, and all the people of the Hidden Kingdom were transferred and frozen.

And it uses two of the most domineering abilities, which are destroy and ability seal.

At that time, she was about to give birth, and the aura of her body would be exhausted at this time.

So, after she instigated the destruction, it came to the point where the oil ran out.

As soon as she finished, she passed out, but the child in her womb was about to be born at this time.

With the help of her personal maid Qiu Tian, she gave birth to a baby girl. ”

Speaking of this, the psychic old man looked at Duanmu Qing, and the meaning in his eyes was so obvious.

Duanmu Qing heard the sound of his heart beating in his chest, suddenly, suddenly, in this silent space, it was particularly clear.

But there was no expression on her face.

It's not that she wasn't surprised, and it's not that she's afraid of leaking her heart to the psychic old man, but all her nerves and muscles are completely stiff at this moment, and she can't react correctly.

The psychic old man nodded: "That's right, that baby girl is you." ”

No matter how Duanmu Qing reacted, the psychic old man seemed to want to pour out the things that had been buried in his heart for many years this time.

"After giving birth to you, the Snow Girl only has one breath left, but the Hidden Kingdom was born weak, and without the help of the Snow Girl, she can't live long.

So, she fought her last breath, used the ability seal, and then asked Qiu Tian to take you away and ...... by herself Died in the land of the Hidden Kingdom. ”

Duanmu Qing was completely stunned, her unknown background was because she didn't know who her father was, and at this time, what she learned was that Qiu Tian was not her mother!

"Autumn ......"

The psychic old man looked at her and probably guessed what she was thinking: "She is the personal maid of the Snow Maiden, and she is a baby girl selected in our country when the Snow Maiden was born, and she grew up with the Snow Maiden." ”

She ...... Not my mother?! ”

"Of course not," the psychic replied simply, "her mission is to protect you as much as possible, but she can't escape the early death of the Hidden People." ”

Clearly, everything is clear, it turns out that autumn has a cold temperament, and it turns out that she is not good at greeting people everywhere.

It turned out that she was reluctant to ask a doctor for medicine, and it turned out that she refused to explain her origin to her father.

Herself is her life's mission!

Duanmu Qing suddenly burst into tears, and a picture inexplicably appeared in front of her, which seemed to have been sealed in her heart for a long time.

On the snow, a pale woman was lying in a pool of blood, looking at the baby in swaddling clothes, smiling, she couldn't even raise her hand to hug the child, she could only look at it stupidly.

It seems that I want to take one more look, just take another look.

However, the deadline has come, and the destiny of heaven cannot be violated.

After all, I could only close my eyes helplessly, and a wisp of incense scattered with the wind.

The goose feather snow falling from the sky fell on her clean cheeks one by one, but it could not melt, and finally covered her face completely.

For a long time, the whole world was silvery white.

It was only the woman, holding a baby in her arms, crying quietly beside a small snowdrift.

Tears rolled down without warning, one after another, and could no longer be controlled.

The psychic old man sighed: "It's all fate, originally Qiubai asked me not to tell you these things, but I don't know why he wants to urge your ability, probably because he predicted something, it's too late to tell me!" ”638
