CHAPTER XXIX
With the sound of "gurgling" all night, Nan He accompanied Emperor He to seal all the dead bodies that appeared in the Soul Mountain into the cave where she had hid before.
When Emperor He came out of the cave, Nan He was sitting under a tree and napping. She bent one leg and rested her face on her knee, her eyelashes blinking a few times from time to time as she slept unsteadily.
Di He leaned against the mouth of the cave and looked at her from a distance, thinking that she had told him over and over again with a serious face that she was also going to Asakawa.
It had been a long time since he had heard from Wei Yuanzi, and he remembered about the two souls in Bo Yanhe's body, and his fingertips pinched the trick, and his fingers stopped at the center of his eyebrows.
Recently, Wei Yuanzi has been in retreat, but he has not cut off contact with the outside world. Sensing the fluctuation of Di He's spell, he opened his eyes and waited for the voice to come.
"Master, we really made a mistake this time! Bo Yanhe just has demonic energy in her body, she is not the big devil! ”
When Wei Yuanzi heard this, he knew that he must have found something, and he said, "Do you know what's going on?"
At the moment when he asked this sentence, Di He said "um", and there was nothing else to say.
"Emperor He?" After waiting for a long time and not seeing any more voices from there, Wei Yuanzi felt strange and frowned.
"Master, this matter is about your calamity, so I won't be joking, you have to trust me. As for ......," he paused, and then resumed his words, "as for the reasons for this, please forgive me for not telling them all!" ”
Di He, who was hesitant to tell about Nan He, finally decided to keep his mouth shut.
After waiting for a long time, he didn't expect that when he spoke again, he would hear something like this, Wei Yuanzi sighed, and then asked with a smile, "Why can't you tell me?" Did you promise someone? ”
Hearing that Emperor Yan didn't mean to hide it, he said bluntly: "Although she didn't directly say that she wanted me to help her keep it secret, since she told me such an important matter, I won't say it casually without her permission."
Wei Yuanzi quipped, "Can't even me?"
Di He's attitude was still the same as Fang Cai, and he said, "Hmm." Not even the master. ”
"Emperor He, Master has a question for you! You have to answer truthfully! ”
"Okay."
"The person who asked you to make this decision, but Bo Yanhe?"
“……”
Di He didn't answer immediately.
At the moment, the only thing Wei Yuanzi can think of is Bo Yanhe who makes Emperor He like this, after all, they are staying together now, and what Emperor He is hiding from him is also about her, so he asked like this.
"It's not."
"Huh?" Wei Yuanzi thought he hadn't heard clearly.
"It's not." Di He repeated it again.
This is the second time that Wei Yuanzi has miscalculated. He shook his head, and had a vague number in his heart about what Emperor He was hiding from him, so he didn't continue the topic.
"In that case, so be it!"
"Hmm." Emperor He responded.
Hearing this, he didn't mean to cut off the two of them, but waited for Wei Yuanzi to say what he was going to say next.
Sure enough, a moment later, Wei Yuanzi opened his mouth again.
"Recently, there have been dozens of places where demonic qi has appeared, I have already sent someone to investigate, since Bo Yanhe has ruled out the possibility that it is the devil, then you don't care about this matter anymore!"
"Master, what do you mean by this......"
"Di He, this is a doom for the teacher, since you have already walked out of it, then don't come in again."
“……”
"A layer of poisonous mist has been lingering over the Asakawa River recently, and there are people with obvious signs of poisoning nearby, which look very similar to the people in the Soul Mountain you talked about after being poisoned. As far as I know, some of them are not unconscious yet, so if you rush to Asakawa as soon as possible, you might be able to ask something. ”
Di He said "um": "When she wakes up, we will go."
Wei Yuanzi nodded, and wanted to say something more, but suddenly noticed a hint of something unusual, and closed the mouth that was already half open.
"What's wrong?"
I hadn't heard Wei Yuanzi speak for a long time, and Di He felt a little strange.
"Nothing. That's it for today, wait for that one to wake up, and I'll say sorry to her. ”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Emperor He to say anything more, he directly cut off the connection between the two.
Outside the retreat sat a woman dressed in a pale blue dress at the edge of the stone table, who had been drinking tea since the moment she arrived.
When he communicated with Di He, Wei Yuanzi had already felt the familiar breath outside the door, and he continued to talk to Di He quietly, originally wanting to see what the purpose of the trip was, but when he felt that the aura fluctuated, he suddenly had no intention of continuing, directly cut off the connection between the two, got up and walked to the door.
Since they met on the day of the disciple election, he has not seen Yaoxi again for such a long time.
They were all clear about Di He's intentions for Yaoxi, although he knew that this junior sister of his didn't mean that to Di He, but it didn't mean that when she heard what Di He Fang had just said to him, her heart would not fluctuate.
"Boom—" The closed stone door opened, and Wei Yuanzi walked out of it.
At this time, Yaoxi was swallowing the last sip of tea, and when she saw him out of the customs, she immediately put down the cup in her hand.
Wei Yuanzi walked quickly to the edge of the stone table, sat down in front of her, and then looked at her, looking at her over and over again.
Feeling his gaze, Yaoxi took the first step and called him "Senior Brother", then reached out and took a new cup and poured him a cup of tea.
After looking at it for a long time, Wei Yuanzi couldn't see anything from Yaoxi's face, he reached out and picked up the cup of tea and took a sip, and then asked, "Isn't Senior Sister going to retreat forever?" How did you end up here today? ”
Yaoxi lowered her head when he asked this, so he didn't see what the look on her face was.
"Originally, I wanted to stay in retreat, and then come to meet the thunder tribulation, but recently, I don't know what the reason is, my cultivation suddenly stagnated, so I thought about asking my senior brother about the situation, but I didn't expect that you have already closed the retreat, and in desperation, I can only sit here and wait for you to get out."
Yaoxi had never said so many words before, Wei Yuanzi frowned, and asked tentatively, "Senior sister, did you just hear anything?"
"What?" Yao looked at him puzzled.
Seeing this, Wei Yuanzi shook his head: "It's nothing."
He cast a spell to probe on Yaoxi's body, and immediately frowned: "Senior sister, have you ever guessed why your cultivation suddenly stagnated?"
Yaoxi shook her head, she didn't know, if she knew, she wouldn't have come to him!
Seeing that Wei Yuanzi looked at her with a hint of strangeness, Yaoxi's heart "chuckled", and suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Senior sister is stupid, please ask senior brother for advice."
Wei Yuanzi stretched out his frowning brows when he heard this, and then sighed, and then said: "Immortal cultivators have to go through tribulations when they cultivate to a certain extent, but except for the indispensable thunder tribulations, no one will know what the other calamities are, as long as they experience them, they can understand what their calamities are."
Yaoxi listened quietly, without any intention of speaking.
Wei Yuanzi paused, looked into her eyes, and said, "Senior sister, what you have to face now is not the Thunder Tribulation!"
"What's that?"
"It's a love robbery."
Originally, I just wanted to take a nap, but I didn't know when I fell asleep, and when Nan He woke up, it was already noon.
"Yikes! I accidentally fell asleep! She stood up suddenly, her eyes moved from side to side, found the place where Di He was, and then walked quickly in front of him, "I'm sorry! Overslept! Seeing that the time is almost early, let's go to Asakawa quickly! ”
Di He glanced at the mark on her cheek that was red from sleeping on her knees for a long time, and pinched it with his fingertips to remove the mark.
After doing this, he said, "Before I leave, I have something to tell you."
Nan He raised his eyebrows at him, as if he was asking him what he wanted to say to her.
"While you were asleep, I sent a message to Master and told him that you could not be the adversary, and then he asked me to ...... for him I'm sorry to tell you! ”
"......" Nan He was stunned.
Originally, she thought that what Emperor He wanted to tell her was something related to Asakawa, but she didn't think that what he was going to say was this.
Di He gave her time to be stunned, and when he felt that it was enough, he said again: "It's not too early, let's go!"
Unlike usual, this time Nan He didn't accept this matter quickly, and when Di He took her out, her attention stayed on the word sorry.
After leaving the Soul Mountain, Di He didn't stay long, he directly pinched the trick and took Nan He to Asakawa.
When the sun set, Nan He finally came back to his senses from those two words.
The evening breeze blew softly in her ears, and Di He grabbed her wrist and took her to various places to Asakawa.
Di He had his back to her, but he could still feel a gaze fall on him, and he didn't look back, focusing on his fingers.
Nan He stared at him for a long time before moving his gaze to something else.
Asakawa is known as the source of all waters, and the first time I heard this name, it was in the mouth of Arashizuru.
At that time, Lan He told her that there were a few places that were particularly suitable for cultivation, and asked her if she wanted to go with her, and after she agreed, he told her a lot of things along the way, including this Asakawa.
recalled that Lan He also told her that when she was tired of staying in the Soul Mountain, she would take her to Asakawa for a walk, and at that time she believed what Lan He said, but she didn't think that the person who took her to Asakawa now would become Emperor He.
If you think about it, sometimes fate is quite unexpected!
