Chapter 3: Chang'an Changsheng (2)
Xia Mu yawned one after another and sat in his place, not even eating breakfast. One is because she hurried to sleep again, and the other is because she didn't wake up too much, and her appetite is not good, and she has become accustomed to skipping breakfast.
"Miss Xia, didn't you rest last night, okay?" Situ Moxuan asked with concern.
"Well, I'm insomnia." Xia Mu rubbed his eyes and nodded.
"But isn't it comfortable in the guest house? Then I'll rearrange it again today and change places. ”
"No, no, it's nice and comfortable. It's just that my biological clock is more used to going to bed late and waking up late. "Xia Mu waved his hand, but he didn't want to change the trouble anymore.
"Biological clock?"
"Well, it's a regular routine." My brain was a little dull and I started to dazed again, and I couldn't help but think of last night's dream. "By the way, Mo Xuan, why don't you have a saint in your holy shrine? Where did she go? ”
“…… Shrine to the Holy Virgin! Situ Moxuan was silent for a while.
"Well, what's wrong?"
"That'...... It was a forbidden place among the moon buds and clouds. The saint is also a silent word among the moon buds and clouds. ”
"Why? Is it because of the enchantment, you can't get in? And what's wrong with her, why is it silence? Even if it is a saint, can't you say it? ”
Situ Moxuan was stopped by a series of questions, lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "Well, the Holy Maiden has passed away, and it has been fifteen years since then, and I was too young at that time, and the specific situation is not very clear. I only know that the barrier of the Holy Maiden Temple is said to have been planted by her before her death, and there are less than three people who can enter it in the entire moon bud clouds. ”
"Huh? She's been dead for fifteen years. "For some reason, Xia Mu's heart felt an inexplicable tingle." Do you know how she died? ”
"At that time, I was only four years old, too young, and I only vaguely remember that the moon buds and clouds experienced an earth-shaking catastrophe, and the saint seemed to have died in battle." Situ Moxuan was also silent, as if reminiscing.
"What's the big problem? You saints are all killed in battle. Also, how did she become your silence? Was she powerful when she was alive? Xia Mu asked.
"I don't remember. I hadn't seen her twice when she was alive, and she was young. Since her death, no one has mentioned her among the elders of the Moon Bud Cloud Room, and we juniors don't know about it. But she was indeed the pride of the moon sprout clouds, not only the moon sprouts and clouds, it can be said that she is the guardian of the whole world. Situ Moxuan's eyes changed to extremely firm.
"Wow! You saints ...... so much, "Awesome! It can be so powerful that it can protect the world! Suddenly, I wanted to meet her, this legendary woman like a myth.
"Miss Xia, sit down, Elder Tan is here." Situ Moxuan said.
"Oh, okay." With the lesson from yesterday's class, Xia Mu quickly tidied up his clothes and sat upright. Then I saw a nun who was not yet thirty years old sitting on the main podium. That person is Elder Tan? Ouch, I guess I'm not a few years older than myself, everyone is an elder and can teach, look at yourself again, hey, hey......
This Elder Tan's name is Tan Youyun, he is the elder who is in charge of medicine under the seat of Penglai Peak, or he is an elder who cultivates medicine, compared to Tan Youyun and other elders who are not smiling, it can be regarded as a spring breeze and harmony. There was often a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was nothing, and it was not as cold as other people, so everyone in her class seemed much more relaxed.
But Xia Mu didn't have much thought about it all morning, playing with Chang'an in his hand, and there were too many questions in his heart, but it seemed that something was slowly emerging in the cocoon.
Xia Mu was about to go to Situ Lan in the afternoon to ask for clarification. According to his age, when the holy woman died, he should have been seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was the current head of the sect, so no matter what secrets were in that past, he should know it. But at this moment, I learned that Situ Lan actually went to retreat last night, and it would take seven days. That is to say, no one will be able to see him for seven days. A stomach full of questions can't be answered, and for people like Xia Mu, it's uncomfortable. So much so that after class one day, I couldn't remember what the elders said, only that I had learned some related content of pharmacology and Fu Seal today.
Lying in bed and rolling around and insomnia, tonight, for some reason, actually became sad. It's been a few days since I came to this strange world, but every day is thrilling, and today is rare and comfortable, but I didn't expect to have more thoughts. She began to miss the people and things in her world, even all the things she had disliked. Ye Xiaofei didn't know what was going on, when they found that they were missing in the pond after filming, would they look for themselves? Will you be nervous, will you be as helpless and panicked as your side, or no one will care, one less person will be one less.
In fact, Xia Mu was an abandoned baby since she was a child, she grew up in an orphanage, and she didn't even know who her parents were and what they looked like. Because when she was ignorant, the teachers at the welfare home had said that she was picked up by the river when she was a baby, and then no one claimed her, so she was sent there. It is said that at that time, she should have just been born. It's not easy to think about the person who threw her away, either he just gave birth to her by the river, or he secretly sneaked to the river when he just gave birth, just to abandon her.
Maybe I haven't experienced the so-called father's love and mother's love since I was a child, but Xia Mu doesn't have that kind of entanglement and resentment, because there is no concept at all. She has known since she was a child that life is not easy, and after she started to beg for life, she can understand the countless sorrows in it. No one lives for anyone, and who in the world does not put themselves first?
It's just Ye Xiaofei, I don't know how it is now. After all, she is one of the few intimate connections in the world with herself, she is different from herself, she has a happy family, her parents are as loving as ever, and she has a mischievous younger brother. The two met at work a few years ago, hit it off at first sight, and became best friends and best friends. But even if she leaves, she shouldn't have any subversive impact. Alas......
Pulled Chang'an out from under the pillow again, blew it for a long time, and still didn't make a sound, and threw it aside in great discouragement. Dreams are just dreams! Everything in the golden moon and the phantom shuttle was fake. It's just that who is the man in the corridor under the moon in the dream? After thinking about it for a long time to no avail, I picked Chang'an back again, hugged it in my arms shyly, and slowly fell asleep.
The next day, she woke up early, and no one came to call her, so she had already gotten up and washed up and went to the aftertaste hall. I didn't meet Situ Xuan by chance, so I had to eat breakfast by myself. When you are full, you will be on your way to class alone.
"Miss Xia." When he was walking with his head down, he suddenly heard someone calling him, and when he looked back, he saw a man in white standing behind him.
"You are?"
"Under Situ Xuan, he is the peak master of Zhaoyang Peak." Situ Xuan approached the summer curtain and saluted with his hands slightly.
"Uh...... "Who is this man?" There's no way, there are too many peak masters and elders here, I really can't remember clearly, plus almost half of the people in the buds and clouds this month are surnamed Situ, how can this be a face blind? But Xia Mu still calmly saluted and said, "I've seen the peak master." ”
"Where does Miss Xia want to go?"
"Huh? Classes. ”
"I see, how is Miss Xia doing in the moon buds and clouds these days?"
"Good, good, very good." I am most afraid of this kind of familiar person who I don't know, and I suddenly care about you. Xia Mu said honestly: "You don't need money for food, no money for housing, no money for study, and free work clothes, of course." ”
"......" Situ Xuan.
"You're looking for me?"
"No, I just happened to see Miss Xia when I was passing by." Situ Xuan said with a smile. Xia Mu shook his eyes, oops! I really didn't expect there to be a man who can laugh among the moon buds and clouds, it's not easy! This guy is also very good-looking, and at first glance he is a scholar-like humble gentleman, especially when he smiles, like a spring breeze, and people can't help but take a few more looks.
"This is Chang'an?" Situ Xuan asked, pointing to the jade flute in Xia Mu's hand.
"You know it, too?" The summer curtain lit up. "Do you know its owner?"
"Of course I do."
"Really? Do you know the saints before? ”
"Of course I know."
"Really?" The summer curtain almost jumped. "Can you tell me about her, then? I'm so curious about her. ”
"Why are you curious about her?" Situ Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I mean, she has been dead for many years. ”
"I don't know, I'm just curious. Especially this jade flute is also hers, right? Then I took other people's things, but I didn't know anything about them, isn't it rude? ”
"Well, I see. Miss Naxia came with me. Situ Xuan gently stretched out his arm, Xia Mu saw a pavilion in the direction he pointed, did he mean to go there and talk slowly?
Seeing that Situ Xuan had already walked over first, Xia Mu had no choice but to follow behind with his dress.
The two sat opposite each other in the pavilion, "What do you want to know about the Holy Maiden?" Situ Xuan asked straight to the point.
"Uh...... Actually, I just want to know about this person, and I'm just curious. Like, was she really killed in battle? Xia Mu didn't expect him to ask so directly, and he was speechless for a while. I heard Mo Xuan say it before, but he said that he was young at the time and didn't know many things. ”
"Hmm." Situ Xuan nodded clearly: "She was indeed killed in battle." ”
"Oh, then she can be considered a heroine, dying in battle for the moon buds and clouds, dying in battle for the world, I'm right? But why did Mo Xuan say that she was now a silent word among the moon buds and clouds? Isn't such a heroine supposed to be admired and worshipped? "The summer curtain is puzzled.
"Because...... The disaster back then was caused by her. ”
"Huh?! Isn't she a Guardian? How can it create a disaster? ”
"The deceased is gone, and my generation can no longer talk about anything. It's just that when she was alive, she was indeed unmatched by the world, and her cultivation was also unmatched by heaven and earth. She is indeed the guardian of the world, the moon buds and clouds were originally built adjacent to the demon world, and the Holy Maiden Temple was able to deter ghosts and demons from all directions as long as she mentioned it back then. But she finally went astray and almost caused the tragedy of the destruction of the world, but fortunately she woke up in time at the last moment, and sacrificed herself to repel the army of the demon world, but she also died from then on. ”
After Situ Xuan finished speaking, Xia Mu finally understood. Although I don't know how the specific saint went astray, the greater a person's ability, the more she can bear, and at the same time, when she goes in the opposite direction, the more harm she will cause. It is estimated that it will take a lot of manpower, material resources and time to cultivate such a saint in the Moon Bud Clouds, which is not easy. And after her death, no one mentioned her anymore, let alone worship and worship, and even became a kind of silence, think about it, her beautiful life, supreme glory, after death is really an indescribable desolation and irony.
"And she...... It's pretty miserable, too. What about the enchantment of the Holy Maiden? ”
"The barrier of the shrine was laid by herself on her deathbed. Unless you are a person with an extremely high cultivation, you will not be able to cross that barrier. Situ Xuan said.
"Cultivation is extremely high? No, I don't have any cultivation at all, but haven't I been in and out a few times? Xia Mu thought it was funny, this question was a paradox.
Situ Xuan didn't answer, but continued: "But no one knows where the holy woman went after her death. ”
"Huh?!" Xia Mu is speechless, don't you know where to die? "Didn't you say she died in battle? Where else can the dead go? Shouldn't you be so angry that you don't even collect her corpse, and let her be in the wilderness? ”
“…… How could it be. This time it was Situ Xuan's turn to look helpless and speechless, this Xia girl's thoughts were really ......
"So what does it mean to not know where to go after death? Where did you bury her? ”
"Before she died, she asked Tsukiya Yunma to cremate her body. However, before the cremation ceremony, the body disappeared. ”
"What?! The corpse is gone! Deceived corpses? Or did someone steal it? She can't come back to life by herself, so she runs away for fear of being blamed by you! Xia Mu didn't realize how big his mind was open.
"......" Situ Xuan.
"And then?" It's really getting more and more bizarre, and Xia Mu's curiosity has been hung to the top.
"No more."
"What?!" Is a story without an ending, abruptly stopped, going crazy? "You guys, didn't you go looking for it? Where the hell did her body go? Is she dead or not? Did you really check it out? Is she really dead? ”
"Miss Xia thinks, is she dead or not?" Situ Xuan asked rhetorically.
"Huh? How do I know, I'm not there. ”
"yes...... No one knew that no one was present when she disappeared that night. ”
What the heck! In the end, it took a long time, and it was still a suspenseful story with no answers! “…… Well, by the way, what's the name of your saint? "Next time, if you go to the Holy Maiden Temple, can you secretly burn some paper money for her, after all, you took someone else's flute.
"Situ Wankong."
Suddenly, a tingling pain slashed through his heart, and Xia Mu, who was completely unprepared, almost fell, holding the pavilion pillar with one hand, covering his heart, lowering his head and panting.
"What's wrong? Summer girl. Situ Xuan sensed her abnormality, walked over, and gave a little help.
"It's okay, it's okay, I probably haven't rested well in the past two days, and I'm having a heart attack." Xia Mu waved her hand jokingly for a long time, this is her ** illness, and when she was still in her own world, she often dreamed of some strange scenes, and then she would wake up in such a sting. Therefore, I went to the doctor for a physical examination, but I couldn't find anything famous, and the doctor only told her that the young man was too stressed, so pay attention to rest.
When Xia Mu raised his head again, he saw that Situ Xuan was still looking at him worriedly, so he had to laugh louder to show that he really had no problem: "Okay! I know, it's getting late, I have to go to class. I'm a new transfer student who is always late, which doesn't look good. Thank you so much for answering my questions for so long. The little woman said goodbye first. Saying that, he made a naughty salute, and without waiting for Situ Xuan to say anything, he turned around and ran to the classroom.
