103. Late
That night's dream was so strange that I dreamed of Nanmi.
Nan Xiao in the dream is not as cold and ruthless as he is now, and he in the dream is so gentle that he is a little unspeakable.
I committed a god in my life, and that god often beat me. Nan Xiao often came to protect me, but I don't know why, he was always one step late. So every time I met him, this was the case: I was beaten on the head by that powerful fairy, and he appeared with a brocade box containing ointment to treat my wounds.
"Why can't you come sooner? You look very powerful, but you don't have to be too powerful, my immortal power, no more, no less, only weaker than that immortal, you and I will join forces, we will definitely be able to beat that immortal. "Occasionally, I'll ask him so seriously.
Nan Xiao also seemed to be very distressed: "I don't know why, I always have to be one step late, and I can't just help you or protect you." Last time, when you sent me a message saying that there was going to be a fight, my father ordered me to go to the East China Sea to ask for rain. The last time you said you wanted to fight, at that time my mother was sick and I wanted to go to Kunlun to get medicine; This time you had a conflict with this immortal again, I thought I could come early, but when I met the teacher on the way, I exchanged a few words with him, so I missed it again. β
I smiled, lifted my sleeve by the lotus and wiped my nosebleed: "You say, will the two of us be destined to be improvised?" β
He smiled bitterly, took a piece of ointment and applied it to the bruise on the back of my hand, bowed his head and said, "If you marry me, I will take you with me every day, then I will definitely be able to help you if you fight with the gods next to you." β
I waved my hand: "I said, you are too rich, I don't have so much dowry, probably not worthy of you." β
"Otherwise, if I obey you, you take me with you every day, so that if you fight with the gods next to you, I can help you fight back immediately." He said seriously.
I thought about it for a while, and the more I thought about it, the more strange it became, and I shook his sleeve and stared at him.
"Why do you look at me like that?" He took another piece of ointment and applied it to my brow bone.
"But I said not only last time, but also last time, last time, last time, you always appear afterwards, why is it so coincidental, not sooner or later, but after I was beaten, you held the ointment box and appeared. That time I was in the mortal world, but it was also when I was beaten up. How could it be so coincidental. "I think it's weird.
His face was a little lost, and the fingers that stopped on my eyebrow bone were hooked into a circle, and tapped lightly on my forehead, "I thought you were thinking about agreeing to let me follow you, but I didn't expect you to think about it all the time." β
"Hmm...... Why don't you try it with me for a few days? I saw that he didn't look very happy, so I said this, and sure enough, after saying this, Nan Xiaomu, who was holding the medicine box before meeting, was delighted, and I hurriedly added, "But you have to play a role, and when that fairy comes back and beats me in the sea of desire, you have to help me immediately!" β
He stretched out his lips and smiled, "No problem. β
So he followed me like this for fifteen days.
Unexpectedly, in the past half a month, the sea breeze has been calm, and the surroundings are safe and proper, and the fairy who always comes to beat me has not appeared.
Maybe it's because I have a helper, I have never been as desperate as I was at that time when the immortal who beat me out soon. Even for three days in a row, from the place where the gods haunted, they swaggered through with expressions and postures such as holding their heads high, being bohemian, hanging their children, and being happy. It's really weird, the fairy just doesn't come out.
On the sixteenth day, I was squatting on the head of the waves of Desirelessness pinching the dog's tail and picking my teeth, and he crouched next to me to watch me pick my teeth. Suddenly, a golden fold flickered and flew to him, he touched it and saw that it was a letter from his own mother, the letter was sprinkled with thousands of words, the waves swayed, I looked at a few lines and felt dizzy, so I didn't look down again. After Nan Xiao finished reading the glittering and very valuable letter, I asked casually: "What did your mother say?" β
His expression froze, and he was really stunned for a while. I thought that his mother's old illness had relapsed, but Nan Xiao reacted and threw the letter into the sea. I was stunned, and thought for a long time whether or not to go into the sea and get the gold, oh no, the letter.
But what Nan Xiao said made me stunned-
"My mother said she was lonely and wanted a little padded jacket." Nan Xiao looked at me and said.
I haven't reacted yet: "She's cold? β
A small wave came over at the right time, and hit Nan Xiao's face, and through the roaring seawater, he said in an incredulous tone: "The little padded jacket is the little daughter, she wants to give birth to a daughter to my father, and wants to give me a sister." β
"Oh," I understood, and said solemnly, "having a second child is a big deal, especially for you, the eldest son, so you should go home and have a look." β
He hurriedly got up, left a sentence of "I'll be back soon", and jumped on the cloud head and went straight to the country of Xuanyuan.
It's just that the clouds in the sky will drown the figure of his eldest son, and the immortal I have been waiting for for half a month to fight with has reappeared......
So, once again, he missed the opportunity to fight alongside me, to help me, and to keep me safe.
Sometimes, some things, some immortals, are destined to come late and are destined to be missed.
I think that's what Nan Xiao and I are.
He's always a little late.
That night, at the end of the dream, I respected the first time I saw him in the divine realm. In the Shuran Hall of Lingbo Xianzhou, he stretched out his lips and smiled, his voice was calm but his sentences were permeated with sadness-
"Amorous self-disturbing, who's to say it's not. At the beginning of March, Ben Gongzi finally learned the news of your resurrection, and his heart was excited. But at that time, I felt that you still had Nie Su in your heart, and I knew that he was your obsession, so I comforted myself, didn't bother you, guarded you from afar, and knew that it was good for you to live. Unexpectedly, after you came out, you had a new love so quickly, I regret that I respected your feelings for Nie Su, and I didn't be the first to go to you. Maybe you will see me first, and then you will give your arms to my son first. β
Perhaps if this god meets him first, if he really treats me well, then I can really consider being with him, and I can save myself from the misery I am now and the calamity with Meng Ze.
But I also know that there has never been such a thing in this world. Nan Xiao never saw me before Meng Ze after my resurrection, and he never appeared when I needed company the most, and his delay in this deity was the same as Meng Ze's joy and sorrow with this deity, both ...... I can't hide from it, I can't avoid it.
is really as Emperor Jiuque of the Southern Wilderness said, the karma is like fire. Before he could react, he was already in a catastrophe and could not escape.
Therefore, the next day, when Nan Xiao urgently knocked on the door of my mansion in the middle of the galaxy, this god was actually not shocked at all - he came to persuade me not to resolve the catastrophe of the Big Dipper, he didn't know, he was still late like the scene in the dream, and as it has always been.
The Milky Way is reversed, and it's the day. So, when he grabbed my wrist, it was actually dark in front of him, and I couldn't see the slightest expression of him, but the anger in his voice was uncontrollable, so that I could hear it clearlyβ
"You really don't want to die, can't you? You are so generous, so generous that you are willing to give up your life! β
I probably smiled, and lowered my eyes as little as I could tell him that I couldn't see, "Otherwise." If this god is not willing, who will protect the common people? β
His wrist was pinched by him, but Nan Xiao's anger became stronger and stronger: "You have generously crossed the common people, have you ever thought about who is willing to come to cross you!" β
"You and I have been immortals for so many years, so why bother with life and death." I would like to persuade him.
"But this son doesn't want you to die!" He was hysterical, and he couldn't accept it in the end.
I whispered to Jin Xuan, told her to take a chair, took out her wrist, sat down and said, "Nan Xiao, but said that in the past year that this god respects the God Realm, the pain caused by you actually accounts for most of it, and occasionally I can't sleep steadily, and I will dream of the scene of a landslide and a swarm of poisonous pythons, and every time I wake up, I feel like I have struggled from the Jedi." I touched the fan, trying to keep myself calm, "But now, I don't blame you much." Probably because of the understanding of the five dharmas and the harmony of the three noble truths, I felt that in fact, this deity had just responded to the calamity that had been set up a long time ago, and tasted the karmic causes planted in the previous life and the karmic results produced in this life. You can't blame it. β
Nan Xiao in front of him was silent for a long time.
I didn't dare to raise my eyes, nor did I dare to close my eyes, and under my sight, there was darkness that I couldn't touch.
After a long time, a finger grasped my palm, and I involuntarily retracted it, but he grabbed it again. The palm of my hand was spread out, and a round object fell into my palm. I subconsciously rubbed it, and the smooth touch of the thing came to my fingertips with a warm temperature. I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this was the Bodhi pendant that he had been wrapping around his fingertips.
"You probably don't know. This pendant ...... It's about the same as my heart. β
Taken aback, the Divine Venerable raised his head in panic, and tried to look at him in his voice: "So, I was careful to stab you with a sword, and at that time the sword pierced through your heart, but you are still alive?" β
At that time, I fell into the python group, was rescued, and slept in the Shuran Temple for three days and three nights, but he still did not let me go, the god was sad and angry, the python was poisonous, and in a fit of anger, he held the fan sword, and the sword body went straight to his chest.
He naturally remembered this incident, but he seemed to turn his cheek away from me, and his voice changed to a plain and lazy tone, as if telling the story of others: "Tens of thousands of years ago, my son once sacrificed his heart for a girl, but in the end he still didn't save her. My father, the princess, and my aunt, the eldest lady of the country of carving, were the ones who gave up half of their cultivation and put their immortal power on this pendant. Probably because this pendant has been with me since I was very young, and I am used to wearing it on my body, and others will not pay attention to it. You take it, this time, even if I'm still too late to help you, it will probably be able to protect you for a while. β
