A month has passed since the last battle, and the entire village has been rebuilt, and everyone has resumed their daily lives.

However, there is one thing that has always haunted Liu Sicheng's heart, which made him unable to let go for a long time.

The day after the fire ended, Liu Sicheng helped the villagers bury the bodies together. In the process of carrying the corpses, he noticed that one of the charred corpses seemed to be clutching something tightly in its hands. Driven by curiosity, Liu Sicheng broke his stiff fingers and found that what he held in his hand was a piece of jade pendant that had been burned yellow.

When Liu Sicheng picked up the jade pendant, the scene in front of him changed, and he was actually in a military camp.

In front of him stood a handsome officer of about thirty years old, with three mustaches and a handsome appearance. The jade pendant he wore around his waist was exactly the same as the thing Liu Sicheng was holding in his hand.

Could this man be the dead? Could it be that this is the remnant of the deceased's thoughts? Liu Sicheng pondered.

There was a sound of footsteps on the loess road, and I saw a bearded officer walking quickly to Officer Peiyu's side, patting him on the shoulder, and the movement was very grinning, it seemed that it should be his colleague.

"Captain Tian, why don't you go to the celebration banquet?" The bearded officer spoke.

It turned out that the deceased's surname was Tian.

Tian Duwei looked melancholy, shook his head and sighed:

"I don't want to go. Although the battle was won, there were many casualties on both sides of the enemy. Their families must have been grieving when they received the news of their deaths, so how could we celebrate them at this time? ”

"You're thinking too much." The bearded officer pursed his lips and enlightened Captain Tian Du, "The battle is ordered to be fought from above, and we are just carrying out the mission." Besides, if we are not sad at the top, why should we be sad? ”

"But......" Tian Duwei stopped when he wanted to speak.

"There is wine today, and there is drunkness today! Let's go! The bearded officer couldn't help but say something, and forcibly pulled Captain Tian away.

At this time, Liu Sicheng's heart received Tian Duwei's mood, which was a strong guilt and self-blame, which was very similar to his state of mind at the moment. At this time, Liu Sicheng suddenly realized that Tian Duwei, who had been buried in the fire, was also a person who hated war. Thinking of this, Liu Sicheng subconsciously clenched the jade pendant in his hand.

Suddenly, the scene in front of Liu Sicheng's eyes changed again. He came to the familiar entrance of the village, and in front of him was a group of Wu soldiers, led by Tian Duwei, and Xiao Xue, who was also standing as a guide, beside him.

Isn't this a scene before the fire attack begins? Liu Sicheng pondered.

Captain Tian suddenly stopped the entire team, and then admonished the soldiers behind him:

"Listen to me! After entering the village, those who give up resistance must not be killed in vain, and those who violate it will be beheaded immediately! ”

It seems that he does think the same way as himself. Liu Sicheng said silently in his heart.

After that, Liu Sicheng heard a voice from the other party's heart.

"Daughter, my father is about to go on the expedition, and I want to give you a gift before I go on the expedition."

"Gifts? Is this the jade pendant? A young girl's voice rang out.

"This jade pendant is a pair, the daughter wears one and the father wears one."

"With this jade pendant, will my father be able to return safely?" The girl asked.

"Yes. Because jade has magical powers, it can entrust people's wishes. The jade pendant worn by the father carries the sincere blessings of the daughter, how can the father die? ”

However, this jade pendant failed to bless him, and in the end, Tian Duwei himself was buried in the fire.

At this time, Liu Sicheng received Tian Duwei's dying mood, which was mixed, with regrets and worries, but there was no fear before death, but mixed with a sense of relief. Perhaps he has long looked down on life and death, and even thinks that dying on the battlefield is a kind of atonement, making up for the murder he has committed in the past.

Liu Sicheng's mood was extremely heavy, and Tian Duwei's death deeply touched his pity, not to mention that Tian Duwei was still his fellow traveler.

Liu Sicheng's heart seemed to have an endless black curtain, wrapping him tightly, wrapping him tighter and tighter, making him unable to breathe.

He put the jade pendant back in the hands of Tian Duwei and buried it with his own hands. Later, Liu Sicheng prayed sincerely at the graves of the victims, wishing that their souls would be able to fly to "heaven".

"Goodbye! Tian Duwei. I wish you all the best along the way......" Liu Sicheng clasped his hands together and said silently.

※※※※※※※※※

After burying the body, Liu Sicheng and the villagers threw themselves into the reconstruction work. He tried to numb himself with heavy work and forget the trauma of war.

Xiaoxue has been patiently enlightening Liu Sicheng during this period, hoping to alleviate the guilt in his heart.

Slowly, the dark curtain in Liu Sicheng's heart began to fade, but it did not disappear, and perhaps it will not disappear completely in this life.

Ever since Liu Sicheng knew that he had sensing ability, he began to test his ability with the people around him. However, the effect is not ideal, Liu Sicheng can only sense some changes in mood or some extremely blurry images, except for Xiaoxue herself and the jade pendant, Liu Sicheng has never been able to sense specific images from other people.

What's going on here?

Maybe the sensing ability has something to do with the frequency of brain waves. The frequency of her own brain waves is relatively close to Xiaoxue, so she can sense specific images from her; As for others, it is likely that the frequency of brain waves is quite different, so they cannot sense specific images. Liu Sicheng judged.

Maybe this is the so-called "Mind and Soul". Maybe this is the fate between the two.

However, Rao is like this, Xiaoxue and herself can't become lovers after all, because there is an insurmountable gap in Xiaoxue's heart.

Thinking of this, Liu Sicheng's heart was inexplicably emotional, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

※※※※※※※※※

On this day, Liu Sicheng heard that Xiaoxue was going to meet her sister who had come from afar, and the meeting place was the cave in the back mountain. And Xiao Xueqian told Liu Sicheng not to follow. Because her sister hates men very much, once the two meet, she is worried that her sister will make too drastic moves towards Liu Sicheng.

Today it was cloudy, but the sky was not raining, and the air was unusually dull.

Liu Sicheng looked at the black and oppressive sky, pacing alone in the house, and said to himself:

"It seems that Xiaoxue didn't bring rain gear when she went out. Okay, I'll send her over. ”

Although it is to send rain gear to Xiaoxue, it is actually nothing more than an excuse made up by Liu Sicheng. Liu Sicheng was very curious about Xiaoxue's sister, and had already forgotten Xiaoxue's warning at this time.

Now that he had made up his mind, Liu Sicheng took a coat and a hat and went out. Halfway through the journey, he found that there was a shortage of rain gear, and a single coat and a hat were only enough for one person, and there was no room for two people.

Forget it, it's wrong. Liu Sicheng pondered.

Liu Sicheng was already familiar with the road to the back mountain, and he was eager in his heart, so he took three steps and made two steps, and it didn't take long to come to the cave. In order not to reveal his whereabouts, Liu Sicheng bent his waist and lurked in the weeds, hiding his body.

Torches were lit in the cave, and a figure could be faintly seen standing in the light of the fire. The man was dressed in a black night coat, with an iron mask on his face, and was about seven feet two inches tall, no different from Xiaoxue in terms of figure. However, her whole body exudes a kind of "spiritual power" like a cold wind, which makes people shudder.

She should be Xiaoxue's sister, her name is "Lin Shuangyue". It seems that Xiaoxue is right, Shuangyue is definitely not a good person, and it is better not to meet her. Liu Sicheng said secretly.

Liu Sicheng was about to walk away quietly, but he accidentally stepped on a dead branch under his feet, making a slight sound. It was this subtle sound that instantly exposed Liu Sicheng's whereabouts.

Before Liu Sicheng could react, Frost Moon had already deceived him with a strong wind, and the speed was amazingly fast.

At this time, Liu Sicheng saw her face clearly: her face was covered with a cold iron mask, only her eyes and mouth were exposed, and her lips without a trace of smile were matched with a pair of incomparably deep eyes, which looked cold. In particular, her eyes are like a black hole, swallowing everything in her heart and the world cleanly, so gloomy that it makes people's hairs stand on end, and people can't look at them directly.

Liu Sicheng really sensed the strong "murderous aura" coming from her. Could it be that she was going to kill a stranger? Liu Sicheng exclaimed in his heart.

At the critical juncture, he didn't want to think too much, so in order to save his life, Liu Sicheng threw out the coat and hat in his hand, intending to block the sight of Shuangyue and buy time for himself to escape.

In the air, the robes and hats cracked in half.

Frost Moon can actually use the "freehand knife" to cut the items in the air into two pieces, it seems that her martial arts cultivation is quite high.

Liu Sicheng turned around and was about to slip away. Unexpectedly, the frost moon came first, and a somersault directly blocked Liu Sicheng's way. Before Liu Sicheng could recover his strength, his neck was already pinched by Shuangyue's fingers, and then the whole person was lifted with one hand. In just one round, Frost Moon successfully subdued Liu Sicheng.

Liu Sicheng tried with all his strength to break the iron claws of the frost moon, but he didn't move. Immediately, he used "hard qigong" to resist it, but it didn't work. Frost Moon's iron claws became tighter and tighter, and Liu Sicheng's breathing became more and more difficult.

Is it true that he is going to die at the hands of Frost Moon? Liu Sicheng secretly complained to himself.

At this time, Liu Sicheng's gaze fell on Frost Moon's cold mask, and found that Frost Moon's "black hole" eyes were staring straight at him. Frightened, Liu Sicheng felt furious in his heart, and quickly leaned to the side, avoiding Shuangyue's eyes. At this time, Liu Sicheng smelled a burst of fragrance from Shuangyue's body, but how terrifying it was with her thick "murderous aura", like a poisonous flower that exuded a strange fragrance, which made people feel chills down their spines.

As the Iron Claw of the Frost Moon continued to tighten, Liu Sicheng was completely unable to breathe. The pain of suffocation instantly hit his heart, and it was the first time he felt the despair and horror of the approaching death.

At the moment of dying, Liu Sicheng called Xiaoxue's name in a weak voice in his throat.

"Xiaoxue...... I don't want to...... I don't want to leave you! Liu Sicheng muttered intermittently.

Suddenly, Liu Sicheng felt his neck loosen, and then the whole person fell to the ground.

At the same time, the image in front of Liu Sicheng's eyes changed instantly, and he came to an unfamiliar courtyard.

Could this be the image of Frost Moon's mind? Liu Sicheng pondered.

In the courtyard surrounding the plough harrow wall stood two men, a man in a cloth cloth with a dark complexion, and a graceful woman wearing a mask and a coarse cloth with arrow sleeves on her head.

That woman should be Frost Moon herself. She exuded a strong "murderous aura", but her eyes were not as deep as a "black hole", but full of resentment.

She slowly moved behind the cloth-clothed man, and with a raised hand, she cleanly wrenched the man's neck bone. The man sat on the ground as if he were asleep, thinking that he was dead.

At this time, a little boy pushed open the empty wooden door and ran in from the gate of the courtyard, and the immature child's voice instantly broke the dead silence in the courtyard.

"Father, father!" The little boy shouted as he ran, "Play with me!" ”

The little boy with a virgin face did not perceive the tragedy to come.

When he saw his father sitting on the ground without saying a word, he leaned forward and stretched out his little hand to shake the man's body and called:

"Father? No sleeping. Get up and play with me! Father, arise! ”

At this time, Liu Sicheng really sensed that the "killing intent" in Shuangyue's heart was rapidly decreasing, and the heart-rending pain in his heart was as if he had been hit hard. The resentment in her eyes disappeared immediately, and even a little sadness.

Seeing that he could not wake up his father, the little boy looked back and shouted to Frost Moon, who had quietly moved to the door:

"Sister Yue, Father is asleep, can you play with me?"

Shuangyue was shocked when she heard this, and Liu Sicheng sensed the sorrow surging in her heart.

If you can't bear it, why do you want to kill indiscriminately? Liu Sicheng was puzzled.

Frost Moon bit her lip and remained silent, continuing to walk out the door.

When the little boy saw this, he chased after him and shouted at Frost Moon:

"Sister Yue, I don't want you to go!"

A violent vibration instantly hit Liu Sicheng. It was a depressing, heart-wrenching shock, as if the heart had been shattered in an instant.

But the moment the little boy's little hand touched Frost Moon's body, an uncontrollable killing intent immediately surged up in her heart.

Frost Moon turned around and neatly twisted off the little boy's head, and the little boy's innocent eyes remained unchanged until death.

Liu Sicheng clearly sensed the aversion to killing in Frost Moon's heart, but why did she still hurt the killer? What was the irrepressible killing intent in her heart?

At this time, Liu Sicheng, who was full of doubts, returned to reality again. He looked intently, only to see that Shuangyue was kneeling on the ground, her right hand trembling, her "black hole" eyes disappeared, and her eyes were full of sadness and horror.

Did her words touch the wounds in her heart? Liu Sicheng guessed.

What secrets are hidden beneath Frost Moon's cold exterior?

Why did her eyes turn into a "black hole"?

It's all a mystery.

Liu Sicheng slowly approached Shuangyue, trying to comfort her, but when Shuangyue noticed that the man was approaching her, her "black hole" eyes reappeared.

She got up suddenly, and quickly rushed towards Liu Sicheng, and the "unarmed knife" immediately broke through the air.

Liu Sicheng, who was caught off guard, had no choice but to raise his hands and carry the "hard qigong" to resist.

The huge impact force shook Liu Sicheng out of the air, and there was a sharp pain in his arm. Although the "hard qigong" was used, the skin and flesh had already cracked, and even the bones were faintly painful. Liu Sicheng hurriedly used the "Mind Healing Technique" to heal the wound.

Frost Moon's offensive would not stop there, and she saw that Liu Sicheng was still able to have a sound arm after resisting a "freehand knife", so she increased the intensity of the blow. Frost Moon leaped to her feet, intending to strike an even more lethal blow with the impact of the fall from the sky.

Liu Sicheng couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw this, could he withstand the thunderous blow of the frost moon with his current strength? Don't think about it too much, Liu Sicheng can only bite the bullet and carry the "hard qigong" again.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out of the oblique stab, and in front of Liu Sicheng, she was Xiaoxue.

I saw Xiaoxue slap her arm on the arm that fell at high speed and bounced her arm away.

But this couldn't stop Frost Moon's offensive at all, she used Xiaoxue's strength to turn her body around in the air, and the "freehand knife" moved as she pleased, stabbing straight at Xiaoxue. Frost Moon's attack changed so quickly that Xiaoxue didn't expect it, and she didn't have time to dodge at all. At the moment when Frost Moon's "freehand knife" was about to touch Xiaoxue's body, her "black hole" eyes were instantly occupied by horror, as if she had just noticed that the person in front of her was her sister.

Frost Moon tries to change the direction of the "Unarmed Knife", but it is too late.

The "freehand knife" that came at high speed instantly pierced Xiaoxue's heart!

Hit hard, Xiao Xueden collapsed to the ground, blood splattered into the air.

It was cloudy, but the sky was already raining blood.

Liu Sicheng and Shuangyue pounced on Xiaoxue almost at the same time. In an instant, the "murderous aura" and "black hole" eyes on Frost Moon's body disappeared.

Why is this so? Xiaoxue was fine just now, but now it is ...... Liu Sicheng's heart was heartbroken.

He held Xiaoxue's jade hand tightly, and tears poured down his cheeks.

"Sicheng, I'm dying......" Xiaoxue's voice was very weak.

"No, Xiaoxue! You're going to be okay! Liu Sicheng shook Xiaoxue's jade hand and roared loudly.

Xiaoxue shook her head slowly, and said intermittently:

"Sicheng, there is one thing...... I want to tell you...... I ...... early on Know your feelings for me...... But for some reason......"

"Xiaoxue, I already know this......" Liu Sicheng cried.

Xiaoxue looked at Liu Sicheng with surprised eyes, and said with difficulty:

"Really...... Please forgive me...... Forgive me for my indecision...... I've never been afraid to accept your courtesies...... When you wanted to kiss me that day...... My heart is torn apart...... Final ......"

Xiaoxue's panting instantly became rapid, and it was easy for her to recover her strength.

Si Cheng ...... Sister ......" she looked at the two people in front of her and said with difficulty, "Don't let me die...... And resentful of each other...... Luckily? ”

Unexpectedly, Xiaoxue was still thinking about others when she was dying, she was really ......

Liu Sicheng nodded vigorously when he heard this.

Si Cheng ...... I'm dying...... Can you tell me that...... What do you want to say the most......" Xiaoxue stared at Liu Sicheng, and her breathing became weaker and weaker.

Liu Sicheng stared at Xiaoxue's eyes that were gradually losing their light, and couldn't tell whether this was her sincere words or the last compensation for herself before she died.

But none of that matters.

"Okay, Xiaoxue, I want to say ...... to you" Liu Sicheng choked up, "I ......"

When Liu Sicheng said the word "I", Xiaoxue's eyes closed slightly and stopped breathing forever......

With tears in his eyes, he finished saying the word "love you" to Xiaoxue's body.

At this moment, Liu Sicheng clearly saw two lines of crystal tears flowing from the corners of Xiaoxue's eyes.

Shuangyue, who was hugging Xiaoxue's body on the side, also had red circles in her eyes, but the tears did not fall after all.

Liu Sicheng's heart turned upside down.

Why does fate play such a trick on people?

I couldn't grasp the opportunity that God gave him, and now I can only regret it.

I lost the opportunity to kiss Xiaoxue forever......

I lost the opportunity to confess to Xiaoxue forever......

I have lost the "oasis" of my life forever......

It's a cloudy day, but it's already raining blood in my heart......

Xiaoxue's charming smile seems to be vivid; Xiao Xue's silver bell-like words seem to be still ringing in my ears; Xiaoxue's fresh and elegant fragrance seems to linger around her body, and now nature has become one with her body......

Liu Sicheng regretted that it was not himself who died, but after all, the facts could not be changed. In his tear-soaked eyes, it was as if he saw a shining soul flying, flying softly, slowly flying into the distance, towards the sky.

Xiaoxue has said that she longs for freedom, and now she has done it. And Liu Sicheng, who loves Xiaoxue deeply, can no longer fly with her......

Liu Sicheng hugged Xiaoxue tightly, Xiaoxue was so close to him in his arms at this time, but it was so far away. Even more rain splashed on Liu Sicheng's eyes and splashed into his life......

Xiaoxue's body is getting farther and farther away from him, and it is Shuangyue who can't help but say that he snatched Xiaoxue's body. In the scramble, the heart-shaped ring on Xiaoxue's forehead fell to the ground, was quickly picked up by Liu Sicheng, and then put it in his arms.

Liu Sicheng tried to catch up with Frost Moon, but he couldn't catch up......

Xiaoxue's body was getting farther and farther away from him, and finally disappeared completely from his sight......

Liu Sicheng kept moving forward in a daze, aimlessly, as if this was the only motivation for him to live......

Forward, forward, until Xiaoxue is found, I don't know how many hours, days, and months have passed......
