Chapter 8: Past Lives
Legend has it that the jade liquid is the best thing in the world, I don't think there is anything special, Ahri poured Zhao Li cup after cup, Zhao Li was "honest", and he didn't care about him, so he drank it.
After a while, Zhao Li was already drunk and unconscious, and was carried back to the residence by me and Ahri, settled him, and saw Ahri beckoning to me under the porch, I went over, and he took out a white porcelain bottle.
"Do you want to make a deal with you? This is the elixir of love I asked for from Yue Lao, give it to the monk to drink, he will definitely fall in love with you, but ......"
The aftermath dragged on for a long time, deliberately whetting my appetite.
"If you don't, he'll fall in love with me one day." I turned and walked away.
Ahri hurriedly grabbed me, stuffed the porcelain vase into my hand, glanced at the sleeping Zhao Li, and whispered: "I don't want you to do anything, that guy has a halberd, you can go and bring it to me to take a look, and return it to him immediately after reading it, do you want to do it?" ”
"Don't do it!"
Ahri leaned on the door and said, "Little fairy, don't be in a hurry to reject me, come and tell me when you think about it!" After that, he whistled and went back to his room.
I took some water and carefully cleaned Zhao Li's face, his sleeping face was so good-looking, his long eyelashes cast a fan-shaped shadow on his face, and his thin lips were gently pursed.
I remembered the scene at Baohua Temple that night, when the snake venom was not cleared, and I threw myself into his arms in a daze, and my skin was so beautiful that I had never felt before.
The glow on the mountain shone on his face through the window lattice, so handsome that it was unreal, I couldn't help but secretly pecked him on the lips, and when I saw him move, I was so frightened that I jumped up and quickly hid in the quilt to pretend to sleep, but I didn't know that after I closed my eyes, the corners of Zhao Li's mouth smiled lightly.
There is no day and night on the mountain, which makes me very miserable when my sleep is not good, Zhao Li went to find some vines of Biluo grass to cover the window, Ahri saw it, and said that the effect of shading this Biluo grass is not as good as the purple rhombus grass at the bottom of the river, Zhao Li got up to pick it.
I couldn't keep him, so I followed.
Ahri said that you can go anywhere in the mountain, only a dead city under the sea in the east can't go, there is a place where the heavenly court detains felons, seeing that I am too ostentatious in a red wedding dress, he changed into a pure white Luo skirt for me to change into, afraid that we can't swim, and also sponsored a water-proof bead.
This kind of behavior makes me very suspicious, he is a beaver who can't afford to be unprofitable! How could you suddenly become so zealous?
The sky shines through the water, and the water is very warm and not dark. Zhao Li took my hand and walked in the water, there were no fish at the bottom of the water, only strange flowers blooming on the undulating hills.
According to the clues provided by Ahri, I traveled a few miles to the east, and I saw purple rhombus that was long, long, wide and wide.
It was cold here, and the light was not very bright, so I was slightly scared and grabbed Zhao Li's hand.
There was a very strange feeling under the dim water, as if being watched by a pair of cold and merciless eyes, and the cold feeling penetrated the soul, like a pair of invisible hands passing through the shell, grabbing the soul out and ravaging it.
There was a faint noise, and I looked up to see a woman standing behind a door, looking at me helplessly.
The cold feeling suddenly disappeared when my eyes made contact with the woman behind the door.
It was really surprising that a woman suddenly appeared under the black rumbling water.
Zhao Li noticed my strangeness, looked up and looked forward, only to see that the woman seemed to be saying something in her mouth, looking eager, but she couldn't hear clearly.
Ahri warned us not to go near a dead city to the east, and I wonder if he was talking about it.
We didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so we went back after picking enough purple rhododium, and the cold feeling just now came back to my heart, this time the feeling was many times stronger than the last time, and my heart ached a little.
Looking back, I saw that the girl behind the door just now was dragged backwards by something, she grabbed and kicked her hands and feet and couldn't break free, and when she looked closely, it was a huge eye that dragged her.
Zhao Li hung up the newly picked purple lingweed, and the room was dark in an instant, so that I could finally sleep well.
The glow on the mountain is there all year round, we can't tell the time, we can only follow the rules of the biological clock, and when we are sleepy, we probably know that it is night.
When I slept at night, I dreamed that I had returned to my hometown, it was early summer, the grass on both sides of Huaishui was all over the field, I put my legs in the water and soaked, and a golden carp spit bubbles around my feet.
Zhao Li saw it and said dotingly: "Yue'er is so beautiful, even the fish are reluctant to give up on you!" ”
I went to scratch him, and he amused me, and both of them fell into the water, and a black dragon supported me from the water with its head, and I touched its head, and the black dragon obediently sent me back to the shore.
The little carp that had just been foaming in the water watched me and the black dragon frolic with very human, surprised and incredible eyes.
As soon as the picture turned, the time changed to winter, and I walked out of the palace gate and heard the voice of the eunuch announcing the decree, which was the holy decree of sending Zhao Li to the expedition.
I sat in the carriage, followed the team from a distance, and went straight to the edge of Huaishui, Zhao Li turned his horse and ran towards me, took my hand and said warmly: "I will come back after the battle, you wait for me, wait for me to come back and marry you!" ”
I took his hand, and my eyes were extremely gentle: "When you come back, I will ask my father to make you the king of Jiangxia, and after you get married, you don't have to go out to fight often." ”
After Zhao left, I missed him very much, so I had to tell the air about the lovesickness, the flowers and plants, and the Huaishui, a small carp always spit bubbles when I spoke to the river, as if responding to me, I saw it interesting, so I caught it and brought it back to the palace to raise.
Zhao Li's return is already the early spring of the New Year, and the Lantern Festival has not yet passed.
I sent the underwear I made myself to Zhao Li, and he hugged me and said, "Yue'er, I'm sorry, I can't marry you again for the time being." ”
The front line emergency, a team of Liao people gathered a group of rogue to make trouble on the border, although there are not many people, but the means are very cruel, many people do not dare to lead troops to quell the chaos after hearing their methods of killing, no way, the emperor can only send Zhao to leave, before leaving he named him the king of Jiangxia, given the surname Zhao.
Half a month later, the battle report came from the front, Jiangxia King Zhao was martyred, five days later the Liao people were stationed outside Yanmen Pass, the war was about to break out, the emperor ordered to talk, the Liao army quickly responded, and the Liao King wanted to accept a side concubine.
I am the only princess who is marriageable, and when the holy decree of the kiss came, I was preparing Bai Aya, and I was going to accompany Zhao Li, and I was afraid that he would be lonely on the road to Huangquan.
After being rescued by the palace maid, my mother cried and said: "Mingyue, Mingyue, your brother and sister were originally the most unfavored among the many imperial heirs, and finally there is an opportunity to be friendly and can help your royal brother speak in front of your father, don't you want to force your imperial brother and me to death when you go!" ”
I looked at the carved beams on the Agarwood Palace, and my heart was so dead that I couldn't die anymore.
Ten days later, the team of relatives set off from the imperial city, blowing and blowing all the way from Huaishui to the west.
I left with nothing but the dagger that Zhao Li gave me and the little carp.
When I passed by Huaishui, I put the fish back in the water, and watched it keep spinning and spitting bubbles in the water, if it was a person, I thought it was comforting me at this time, right?
I took out the dagger that Zhao Li had given me and gestured to get ready to plunge into the right place.
In the screaming wind, I only heard the sound of horses' hooves stepping on the bluestone road quickly and quickly.
When I turned around, I saw that his face was covered with blood, and it was difficult to hide his good color, his armor was tattered, and the wounds on his strong muscles were shocking.
"The wind is coming!"
The black dragon sealed in the dragon breaking the halberd rushed out of the sky, the water boiled, and the team of relatives was swept into the river like a round dumpling, and the corpses were all over the field, and the blood flowed and drifted.
Someone in the team to send off his relatives released a signal, and soon the reinforcements arrived, Zhao Li had already killed the red eyes, and he would kill every person, he forgot that these were the soldiers he had led, and they were brothers who were born and died with him.
Someone pointed at him and asked, "You are my people, why do you rob your relatives?" How much controversy does this cause? What are the consequences? ”
"I was born and died on the front line, you send my women to kiss, you all deserve to die!" Zhao Li's voice was indifferent.
The Binding Dragon Breaking Heaven Halberd caused the thunder to sky, and the rain was very heavy, and both Zhao Li and the reinforcements could not hold on.
Suddenly the wind and rain stopped, the thick fragrance filled the heaven and the earth, in the bright glow of the two people came against the wind, one of them hid his face in the fog, the other was full of white hair, the appearance of elegance, he did not look at the corpses everywhere, only asked me: "Little girl, have you seen my lost fish?" ”
The man who hid his face in the fog spoke in a loud voice, and said, "Heartless person, go back with me!" ”
Guanghua Dasheng, then disappeared, Zhao Li disappeared, the team to send relatives disappeared, and I was the only one standing on the top of the mountain.
There was a person lying on her stomach in the Tianhe River on the mountain, and when she walked in, her golden tail was hidden in the water, and she was a half-fish, half-human fish essence.
"Zhao Li is dying, Master Hei will take him to heal, let me wait for you to wake up and tell you!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at me with round eyes, looking innocent and looking familiar.
I slept really long this night, and Zhao Li gently patted me on the back to wake me up.
"What dreams did you have? Crying so sadly? ”
"I dreamed of you, I dreamed of you...... I dreamed that you got married and married a princess! ”
Ahri gave us a very rich breakfast and even a pot of fresh soy milk.
"You love this, drink more!"
Looking at it with a cold gaze, Ahri quickly turned the soy milk in front of me and put it in front of Zhao Li, who had a bad face, because of his jealous expression, I was happy all morning.
After breakfast, Ahri asked Zhao Li to play chess, and I secretly took the water beads and dived into the water.
The cold iron door was made of dark iron, densely covered with charms, and I whispered by the door, "Is there anyone?" Mermaid fairy, are you there? ”
Just listening to the sound of ding-dong shackles dragging away, a girl with a golden tail came to her.
She was very happy to see me, "Princess Mingyue, have you come to see me?" How have you been doing for the past 100 years? ”
My guess was correct, this carp spirit really recognized me, my dream was real, it was not a dream, but a memory of my previous life.
Zhao Li and I met and fell in love in our previous life, what happened later, I don't have a friendly Princess Mingyue, but there is a real Jiangxia King, and the people of later generations praise him, and his portrait also has the words of majesty and benevolence, and these praises should not appear on a general who robs relatives!
