Volume 4: The Dream Bursts Chapter 13: The Soul (5)
Hongluan flew away to deliver the letter, and after three days, he brought the person back. The reunion of the four after a long absence is another lively event. It turned out that Liu Yihuan and Tingnu had already stayed near Shouyang Mountain, saying that they were going to wait here for Xuanji and them to come back. As a result, the 'yin' and yang were wrong, and they didn't touch each other, if it weren't for Hongluan's letter, Liu Yihuan would almost have to leave to float to the 'jade' island.
The first thing Xuanji did was to find Chu Lei to help Liu Yihuan get rid of the ice spell on his body. Chu Lei has long heard the 'daughter' say about the deeds of Tianyan Liu Yihuan, although this person is a handful of age and is messing around, but he is indeed a man with a 'chest' and a sharp heart, so he has a lot of 'friendship' with him, and immediately agreed to expel the ice spell for him.
At that time, just after the deadline of half a year, as soon as the clothes on Liu Yihuan's body were removed, everyone was surprised, and a piece of black purple that was originally coiled on his right shoulder had spread to the shoulder blade. Chu Lei's expression was dignified, and he tapped the purple skin with his hand, only to feel that the tentacles were 'yin' cold, it was difficult for him to still hold on to a strong smile and smile, presumably half of his body was not felt, right?
"Xuanji, Si Feng, you two go out. I'll exorcise the ice spell for Mr. Liu, so I can't disturb him on the way. ”
Yu Sifeng saw that there was nothing they could help when they stayed here, so they had to wait reluctantly outside the 'door'. Xuanji squatted beside Tingnu, hadn't seen him for more than half a year, missed him very much, and chirped and cooed some nonsense with him. Tingnu just listened with a smile, and 'interjected' two sentences from time to time. From the time she first met him, Xuanji felt that he was very familiar and kind, as if she had known him a long time ago, and intuitively felt that she could talk to him about any nonsense in her heart, and that he was safe and could be trusted.
It's strange, it's obviously a stranger, and there is no big 'friendship' at all. But she just felt he could be trusted. Tingnu also seemed to feel that her trust was normal, and there was no abruptness at all. Xuanji said inexplicable nonsense for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Tingnu." What have you been doing for the past six months? We went to Qingyang to look for you, but we didn't find it. ”
Tingnu smiled: "It's Mr. Liu who has something." I'm just with you. He went to Mt. Shaomuro, where there seemed to be the grave of one of his deceased people, and we stayed there for a while. ”
Cemetery? Xuanji glanced at Yu Sifeng, he was also at a loss, obviously not knowing who the old man was.
Tingnu saw her open and wanted to ask. shook his head slightly: "Others are 'private', and it's not easy to ask." If he wills, he will say it one day. He didn't want to say that it was difficult for a strong man. ”
Xuanji nodded, and after a while, she said, "Tingnu, you know, I used to ...... Well, my past life ......."
He seemed a little stunned. (1^6^K^ is the fastest update). However, he still bowed his head and said lightly: "What, did you remember something?" ”
"I seem to be a little impressed. Every time you get angry or 'agitate', some clips will flash. But then I forgot about it. I now know what a god of war general is. Collapse 'jade' is not called collapse 'jade', it is called Dingkun. It seems that he committed some great sin in his previous life. So he was sent to the nether. ”
These things came out of her mouth, like telling other people's stories, and they had nothing to do with herself. She smiled bitterly: "Although I know, I still don't feel like me." It doesn't seem to have anything to do with my life......"
Tingnu didn't speak. She said again: "I also thought that even if I really remembered all the memories of my previous life, I was not the God of War general. I am still Chu Xuanji, and this life is completely different from the previous life. Things in the past should be in the past, and people should look forward. You tell me? ”
Tingnu smiled and said softly, "That's right. It is not wise to dwell on the past. You're quite right. ”
Xuanji got his approval, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Tingnu, I also knew you in my previous life, right?" We used to be good friends, right? ”
Tingnu thought for a moment before he whispered, "Yes...... However, you are the high-ranking general of the God of War, and I am just a mermaid who has just attained enlightenment and was raised in the heavenly pool. Pal...... I really can't talk about it. ”
"Then tell me about the past. I want to hear it. ”
Tingnu paused for a while, as if immersed in memories, and after a long time, he said leisurely: "At that time...... The war in the upper realm is continuous, and you often have to wear armor to fight, and after a long time, you will feel physically and mentally exhausted, and occasionally come to rest by the heavenly pool. You think that I can't speak and have no sense, so I often bring food to me and say something about war. Later......"
Later, it was always her who said and he listened. She thought he didn't understand, he thought she didn't want others to 'interject'. Until one day, he heard others talking about her heinous crimes by the Heavenly Pond, saying that the Emperor of Heaven would punish her and destroy her soul. In a hurry, he spat in front of her, asking her to escape from the heavenly realm. Seriously, with her skills, if she wants to escape from the heavenly realm safely, no one dares to stop her, and the emperor of heaven has always favored her, and he will not be embarrassed by her.
However, when she heard what he said, her first reaction was not surprise or anger. But......
"What happened?" Xuanji asked curiously.
Tingnu smiled: "Later, the first time I spoke, you were very frightened, like a child who had done something wrong, and your face was flushed, I think you probably felt embarrassed." I thought I didn't understand anything, so I said everything, but I understood everything. "It's really embarrassing, that time. When she learned that he could speak, she panicked, and the food in her hand fell to the ground with a clatter. At that moment, she didn't look like the *** God of War General at all, she was just the most ordinary young 'girl', and she felt ashamed because the things in her heart were known by strangers.
He also knew from that moment that no matter how powerful and beautiful a person was on the outside, he was not as strong on the inside. Their acquaintance originated and ended at that moment.
She quickly calmed down, brushed her hair lightly, and looked like ice and snow crushing. After a while, he whispered: "I won't escape." Any punishment is bearable. ”
He still wanted to persuade, but she turned around and left, suddenly stopped, turned back to him and smiled slightly, and said, "Don't speak for me anymore, you will also be involved." Later, when the incident happened, she was arrested and put in prison, and he was also revealed to have a "conspiracy" with her, because many people saw her go to Tianchi that night and talk to him.
Many years have passed, and the days are like flowing water. She has been a human being in the lower realm, and he has been dismissed from the priesthood, so he can only continue to be the most ordinary mermaid from scratch. There was a word in his heart that he hadn't told her, and after waiting for so long and going through a lot of hardships, he finally met her again. Although she doesn't know anything anymore, it seems that she has changed into a different person, but that sentence, no matter what, he has to say it to her.
"Tingnu, why didn't you say it?" Xuanji heard half of it, and waited in a panic, so she had to ask again.
He chuckled, reached out and gently stroked her hair, and said softly, "You know what? Whatever you say, I'm willing to listen. Later...... Also willing to listen. ”
This obsession, like a fiery love affair, is endless. I just want to make up for what he didn't say that night, I just want to continue to listen to her, under the moon, the tassels on the golden armor fall into the water, and the young 'girl' still has childishness on her face. All the murderous aura, the 'yin' cold, is gone. The so-called god of war, like an innocent child.
It's not admiration, it's not about love. He was only for the panic of her moment, and he felt his heart pounding, and he didn't want to let the memories become quicksand and slip through his fingers. The ice spell on Liu Yihuan's body was quickly eliminated, and he only needed to rest for two days before he could fully recover.
When Xuanji saw Chu Lei come out, he was covered with sweat, obviously 'spending' a lot of 'fine' effort, and his heart was 'excited' and guilty, so he stepped forward and grabbed his hand and shouted in a low voice: "Daddy......"
Chu Lei patted her head and said gently, "It's okay." Let your friends go to rest too, it's not too early. Xuanji shook her head: "No, I will not be relieved until Brother Liu's injury is healed." Go and save Linglong now. ”
Chu Lei had heard that she knew a master who could merge Linglong's soul back, but she didn't know who it was, so she exclaimed: "Can it now?" But Mr. Liu just fell asleep......"
Xuanji smiled and pushed the pavilion slave over, like offering a treasure, and said, "It's not Brother Liu, it's this one!" His name is Tingnu, and he has helped us a lot along the way! ”
Chu Lei saw at a glance that he was by no means extraordinary, and he was even more surprised, and said in a low voice: "Respect ......"
Tingnu lightly uncovered the blanket spread on the 'legs', 'exposed' the fishtail, and said lightly: "In the lower merman Tingnu, I have seen Chu Zhang's 'door'." ”
Goblin! Chu Lei's expression changed. Xuanji grabbed his hand hard and said in a deep voice, "Dad! He's my friend! ”
How do you make friends with demons?! Chu Lei's lips moved slightly, as if he was about to say something, and finally only sighed, shook his head, and said in a low voice: "He...... That's it. That tireless and respectful driving, can save the little 'girl', and the Shaoyang faction is inexhaustible. ”
"Chu is polite to the 'door'." Tingnu didn't care about his gaffe, and turned around and said gently: "Xuanji, take me to see Linglong." ”
Chu Lei stood in place, watching them go away, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart. What he has learned and heard in his life is all demonic evil, which must be eradicated, and he is also forced by demons to hate monsters. Now, looking for people all over the world, there is no one who can save Linglong, but he wants the monster to come to the rescue. How can this taste be explained in a few words?
Perhaps, he is really old.
Chu Lei sighed, and finally turned around and followed.
