After all this, everything seems to be just a big dream, and in a blur, I can't tell whether I am Ah Fu in the tea shop in Yanshanqiao, or Qiao Yan in the mess on Taihang Mountain.

Perhaps, all of them.

On that day, the thunderstorm of Qishan slowly dissipated with the departure of Yuzhi, and she rushed from Qishan to Taihang with confusion, and then wandered from Taihang Mountain, which had turned the world upside down, to the side of the Yanshan Bridge.

Big Viagra may have recovered from his illness, and the family moved to the south, leaving the tea shop empty and already in dilapidation, and there were fewer people at the bridgehead who often gathered around to listen to the story, and now she recalls it, the story of the Yanshan Bridge is really ridiculous.

During this period, the Dragon Zun Prince of the East China Sea, Chi Xian, came to look for her, scolded her for her red face and troubled water, and brought a catastrophe to the most cautious Yu God Monarch in the heavens, so that he is now in prison, and he is punished by the thunder every day and suffers a lot of pain.

Thinking of that person, Qiao Yan felt that if she hated his ruthlessness and hatred for his use when the Demon Punishment Array killed Taihang Mountain three hundred years ago, but now that she thinks about it, if there is no him, she will definitely be scattered under the Demon Punishment Array, even if she sacrifices herself to protect the demon clan for a while, she will definitely not be able to protect it forever. She is unwilling to let the third master Yingying, and many demons in the mountains die in vain, but think about it, three hundred years ago, the weak little girl Ah Fu, her relatives were all lost and displaced, and finally died in vain, who should she hate? complained and complained, but she could only blame her for being cowardly and incompetent back then, and she couldn't be like her father, and she managed Taihang Mountain in an orderly manner, so that those demons who harbored evil intentions bowed down and didn't dare to jump into the thunder pool.

After thinking about it, Qiao Yan felt that he was really a scourge, not only did he almost destroy Taihang Mountain, but also made the cultivation of the high-ranking god monarch in that immortal county fall into prison.

Back then, the Xianjun Demon was the way of the heavens, he was just a god monarch who performed routine official duties in the Demon Punishment Array, and he left her outside the Taihang Mountain, but he also wanted to leave her alive in the catastrophe.

Qiao Yan thought about it and smiled bitterly, when she was hit crazy by the death of her relatives, she tried to fight against the hundred immortal officials with her own strength, when she was on the verge of the end, she was forced to let him hide from the world, and she suppressed the weak woman under the Yan Shan Bridge for three hundred years, and she was exhausted by him to hide the demonic energy, and after being reincarnated, she began to die as a person.

In those years in the tea shop, Qiao Yan guarded the Yanshan Bridge every day, she knew how cold the water under the bridge was, there was no sunlight there all year round, Rao was the most down-and-out beggar in the town, and he would not choose to live under the bridge, not to mention that he stayed for three hundred years.

Sometimes, an impulse swells in Qiao Yan's heart, she wants to kill Xianjun like she did three hundred years ago, and rescue her Ah Yu, who will never appear in front of the world again, and live in seclusion for eternity.

When this thought arose, Qiao Yan had just stood up, and Yue Lao'er knocked on her door, knowing that she remembered the past, Yue Lao'er didn't say a word, pulled up her sleeves, and took her to walk around the world.

At first, Qiao Yan didn't understand the intentions of Chaojiao, but in a street market in the world, he saw a young woman holding a pink doll in her arms and passed by, Qiao Yan turned around suddenly and burst into tears.

The woman, dressed in a yellow and green shirt with a finch hairpin pinned to her head, was full of seriousness, and reprimanded the child in her arms, not allowing the doll to be greedy for other people's sweets, and to be careful of being deceived.

"Yingying."

Qiao Yan called softly, the woman suddenly stopped, looked back, and was stunned for a moment after seeing Qiao Yan, and smiled slightly, as if she didn't know this person in her memory, so she thought that she had heard it, there are thousands of people in the world, but it was just a name.

Chao Jie stood beside Qiao Yan, looked at the woman who was gradually drifting away, sighed and said to Qiao Yan: "The people who died in vain when the demon was in trouble have already entered the reincarnation, and the Immortal Emperor considered it again and again, and finally decided to let the demons in Taihang Mountain, who had never killed evil, also enter the reincarnation together, but the quality of life after being a person still depends on the artificiality of each person." ”

Qiao Yan was silent for a moment, and the hatred in his heart gradually faded, "What about him?" ”

Chao Jie sighed and said: "I know you want to save him, three hundred years ago you have been greatly damaged, if it weren't for Yu Zhi's pretense to kill you, I am afraid that you have already lost your soul, and now with your own strength, even if you slaughter the entire Xianjun thousands, you can't hurt Xianjun at all, it's just for him, adding another sin." ”

Seeing Qiao Yan's sad expression, Chao Jiu comforted again: "He used to be the most trusted person of the Immortal Emperor, and now he is deceived and deceived to do such things, and the Immortal Emperor is also angry with him for betrayal, I am still calling you a girl as before, as a friend, listen to the old man's persuasion, the Immortal Emperor is not a faint person, you wait, maybe wait for ten or twenty years, and he will be released, but if it is then, you immortals and demons have different paths, or don't be implicated again." ”

Qiao Yan listened quietly, choked in his throat like a thousand steel needles, pondered for a long time, turned around and went in the direction of Wutong Town, for a long time, before he said to Chao in a distant voice, "Thank you." ”

Taihang Mountain, has changed not like the appearance of her when she was there, the demons and spirits derived there, and no longer recognize her, the unknown demon king, Qiao Yan returned to Wutong Town, or met someone she knew, and would say hello to her Ah Fu. But after a long time, I don't know where the rumors started, everyone in Wutong Town said that she was a monster, people avoided her, and even some of them intended to do justice, splashing the black dog's blood on her door.

Day after day, as before, Qiao Yan made tea, made refreshments, waited at the door for pedestrians to come and go, continued to stay here, and listened to the legend about the Yanshan Bridge, but the tea was cooled in the cup, and the pastry was moldy, but no one came to sit with her.

Summer passed, autumn came, the leaves of the old willow by the lake fell all over the ground, Qiao Yan picked up the broom every day, swept up and down the bridge up and down, sometimes leaned on the bridge railing and looked down, can feel that under the Yanshan Bridge, Ah Yu set up a formation for himself faintly still there, but the person changed places, from under the dark Yanshan Bridge, to an unknown corner of Xianjun, suffering from the thunder punishment day after day, the taste of the thunder punishment she also suffered, it seemed to penetrate the skin, a knife carved in the bones and intestines.

In fact, three hundred years later, Ah Yu should know that she will not be able to hide from the immortal officials above the heavens, and she also knows that the guilt will come sooner or later, but she still wants to be with her, even if it is only a few months or only a few days, but it is a pity that she was stupid three hundred years ago, and she is still dull after three hundred years, and she has not been able to break through the seal to recall the past, and she has failed him in vain.

The annex outside Qingzhou City has changed its owner, and the plantain planted by her and Ah Yu is still there, but it's a pity that things are wrong, and no one accompanies her anymore and plays a flute for her. When Qiao Yan went for the last time, she took away the wedding dress that Ah Yu had prepared for her, and rubbed the flower branches on it every day, regretting how much she hurt his heart for his hasty refusal.

It seems that many things in this world are spiritual, and the old houses and trees have become dilapidated with the desolation of the owner.

At the end of autumn, the shopkeeper's family returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors, and when they heard that her demon lived in their tea shop, they bypassed this road like others. Qiao Yan knew that in fact, Big Viagra had looked at her from afar, Big Viagra married a bride, like a capable girl from a rich and noble family, Big Viagra loved his wife, and he no longer had the intention of taking a concubine.

Autumn passed, the snow covered the whole land, there was no smoke in the dilapidated tea shop, and no one stepped out of the snow outside the tea shop.

Qiao Yan curled up in the room, listening to the cold wind whistling outside, and sat quietly day after day.

As the north wind blew more and more rapidly, the snowflakes were whirring, from thin smoothies, into large pieces of goose feathers, and then from the goose feathers, they were scattered into clusters of flocculents, and the only guest who had ever come to her tea shop was the one who had received the favor of her two copper plates, and the Yue Lao'er Chaojiao, who had the weakest mana and the least oil and water in the fairy county.

Chao Jie came to Qiao Yan to sit here for a long time, and when he saw that she was stunned and didn't say a word, he only saw her for the first time, and asked, "How is he?" ”

Chao sighed for a long time before he said: "He is the same as you, every time the Immortal Emperor sees him, the first thing he says is to ask to let you go, and he is the only fool in the heavens, afraid that the Immortal Emperor will blame you." ”

Qiao Yan hugged the wedding dress that had faded slightly, tears flowed down, crying all the tears, and her eyes were stunned, and she began to look at a quiet place, she didn't know what to do next, or what she was waiting for, or maybe she wanted to spend the three hundred years under the bridge once.

After the court left, no one came again throughout the winter, until the ice melted and the weather entered spring, and only then did Yan'er, who returned to the south, go to her eaves to peck a mouthful of new mud.

Slowly, the water under the Yanshan Bridge rose a little with the arrival of the rainy season, and one day Qiao Yan was looking at the nest of swallows, but heard crying along the river. Some souls who died in vain told her that they were in the upper river and that they had encountered pythons and snakes, which had plagued countless villages and killed many, many people along the way.

After Qiao Yan heard this, his heart shook for a moment, but he thought that there was a disaster to repay people by fate, just like the Taihang Mountain back then.

Later, a young man in the world came to beg her to kill the snake demon that walked Jiao, saying that the snake demon, originally the demon in the Taihang Mountain, three hundred years ago by the Taihang Mountain a demon fire blow to the cultivation of the great damage, peeled the skin of a fox demon and draped it, only to escape a catastrophe, and then hidden in the mountain practice for three hundred years, to the time of the Jiao, then used the quick method, along the river caused a huge flood, flooded many villages and fields along the river.

Qiao Yan lowered his head and didn't ask the kneeling boy how he knew about it, but he remembered Ah Fu's sick little face many years ago. In the more than ten years she was alive, she used Ah Fu's appearance, and it was only when the seal began to be lifted that she slowly changed back to her original appearance. Qiao Yan remembered that at that time, the fox was the demon who loved to quarrel with her in the whole forest, and her yin and yang weird tone could make the most temperamental monkeys jump up angrily.

But now, they're gone.

The hand that flicked the joy in his hand slowly stopped, Qiao Yan looked at the vast sky outside through the window, and his empty eyes gradually revealed a trace of warmth, like a person who has suffered a thousand sails, and slowly raised a smile.
