Chapter Twenty-Three: Sword Spirit
Chapter 23: Sword Spirit
"Why do you say that?"
"You took fifty dollars from me."
Su Ran smiled bitterly, "Alas, it's really true to say that greed for money harms people." ”
"You admit it now," Li Xiaotong shouted, "Do you know that Qianqian is dead!" ”
Su Ran's face changed, "I know." ”
"That's it," Li Xiaotong looked at Su Ran's indifferent appearance, and listened to the salty and light-hearted I knew, and the anger in his heart turned into a roar, "She's dead!" He's dead! ”
Su Ran glanced at the sunset, "Li Xiaotong, I'll ask you again, do you still want to see Qianqian again?" ”
"What?" Li Xiaotong didn't understand Su Ran's words.
"Time is running out, and you have heard my words clearly, this is the only chance," Su Ran said, "If you miss it, you will forget everything." ”
"I want to!" Without hesitation, Su Ran didn't know what this Su Ran was talking about, and he didn't know if he could, but Li Xiaotong knew, she thought, she wanted to, she didn't even see Qianqian for the last time.
Unwilling.
"Okay, let's talk about it after midnight." Su Ran glanced at it.
Sunset closes, rules.
There are only two people in the small grocery store, Su Ran and Li Xiaotong, to be honest, Li Xiaotong is still a little afraid, not afraid of Su Ran, although he has not had too much contact with Su Ran, but Li Xiaotong trusts him very much, and Su Ran will not be unfavorable to him.
What she was afraid of was the next unknown, Su Ran said that she could see Qianqian again, what did that mean?
Su Ran looked at Li Xiaotong, "Scared?" ”
Li Xiaotong wanted to say no, but his expression and gesture knew that he couldn't deceive Su Ran, "A little." ”
"If you regret it, it's still too late, I'll send you back."
"I don't!"
was very stubborn, Su Ran asked, "Tell me, everything that happened after you went back, including all of Qianqian's abnormal behaviors, who you saw and what you heard, tell me in detail." ”
"Don't you know how to read minds, you should know everything."
Su Ran chuckled, "Talking more can relieve your nervousness, besides, I can only know your heart, but I can't know your analysis and judgment." ”
Subsequently, Li Xiaotong explained in detail everything she encountered after leaving Su Ran, including the two figures she saw in a daze in a coma, and her own judgment was very little.
Speaking of what Xiao Ling asked them, Su Ran's eyes moved.
Time passed minute by minute, at this time it was torment for Li Xiaotong, time was like a tide, like a beast, devouring her little by little in the dark night, this small upper and lower grocery store seemed to have become the entrance to the underworld.
"There are four more hours, if you are sleepy, you can sleep, and I will wake you up then." Su Ran looked at Li Xiaotong's spirit, I am afraid that it will not last until midnight.
"It's okay," Li Xiaotong took a deep breath, "Su Ran, you tell me, what happened to the female Su Ran that night?" ”
She originally thought that the female Su Ran was killed by Lin Xiu, and felt that Su Ran and Lin Xiu had killed each other, but after seeing the disappeared upper and lower grocery stores, she didn't believe what she saw with her own eyes, and she didn't even know whether the female Su Ran was a human or a ghost.
"You can think about it, there are some things that you can't get out of once you know them, and as for what will happen and what the consequences will be, no one knows." Su Ran knew that it was impossible for Li Xiaotong to withdraw now, but she still had to understand the danger.
"Is it like Qianqian?"
Su Ran was silent.
Su Ran's silence was like a kind of acquiescence, which made Li Xiaotong's heart sink for a while, not long after Qianqian's death, the terrifying picture still appeared clearly in her mind, at this moment, Li Xiaotong knew what surrounded her and suffocated her.
Fear!
Deep fear!
"I'm not afraid," Li Xiaotong said, "Even if it's for Qianqian, I can't be afraid." ”
Su Ran glanced at Li Xiaotong, "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll tell you what I know, the female Su Ran that night is actually not a person." ”
Not human?
Is this an insult? I still want to say that the female Su Ran deserves it.
"It's not that I'm scolding, it's that the female Su Ran is not a real person," Su Ran explained, "Do you remember Lin Xiu, he is from Shu Mountain, and on Shu Mountain, he respects swords, is good at forging swords, is good at swords, and protects the stability of a radius of thousands of miles with the three-foot green blade in his hand." ”
"You seem to be talking about Xianxia."
"This world is not as simple as you see, nor is it as small as you see, it's like a parallel world, you should understand."
"Yes." In fact, Li Xiaotong doesn't know much either.
"In Shushan, after thousands of years of sword casting, the people there have discovered a way to make the cast sword more spiritual."
"How?"
The things that Su Ran said only appeared in those.
"Sacrifice the sword with a living man."
Li Xiaotong was taken aback, "What did you say?" Living? How could they do that! ”
Su Ran shook his head, "Not only a living person, but also a little girl under the age of eight." ”
Li Xiaotong shouted, "Are they still human!" No one cares about them! ”
"Tube?" Su Ran smiled, "That's Shushan, who cares, if you hadn't met me and Lin Xiu, you wouldn't have known that there was a place in Shushan, what else to do, and besides, those little girls were all voluntary, what could you say." ”
"Voluntary? I don't believe it! ”
"If you don't believe it, there's no way, voluntary is voluntary, after sacrificing the sword, you will become the sword spirit in the Shushan Flying Sword, you can grow up over time, and you will also have some peculiar abilities."
Li Xiaotong felt a headache, "Su Ran, how do I feel that you are lying to me with a copy, the things you said are obviously the plot of the story." ”
Su Ran smiled and said nothing.
If I hadn't become the owner of this upper and lower grocery store, I wouldn't have fucking believed in these things, don't talk about you!
"However, the casting of the sword spirit is not 100%, or it is very difficult, and the appearance of a sword spirit even requires a hundred children, so the sword spirit is very precious in Shushan."
Su Ran found that he really said it, obviously what he said was the truth, why did he say more and more nonsense, can this be more similar to the bridge in the fantasy.
Li Xiaotong was silent, what she was silent about was this number, one hundred!
That's a hundred living lives.
"You mean to say that the female Su Ran is a sword spirit."
"Yes, so, in a real sense, we're not killing anyone."
Li Xiaotong was silent for a moment, "However, she is still dead, whether it is a person, a sword spirit, or dead, just like Qianqian, she can't live anymore." ”
Su Ran looked at Li Xiaotong and didn't know what to say.
For a while, neither of them spoke, Su Ran was waiting for time, and there was nothing to say, Li Xiaotong didn't ask, and he was willing to tell her less.
Li Xiaotong was silent, not knowing whether he was thinking of Qianqian or thinking of something else.
"Okay, the time is almost up, get ready," Su Ran got up, took out a black umbrella and gave it to Li Xiaotong, "Remember, what you see and hear next is top secret, and you must not talk about it to anyone." ”
Li Xiaotong took the black umbrella, and didn't know why he had to use the umbrella wherever he went, "It's like you're an underground spy." "Just kidding now, let's relieve my nervousness.
Su Ran took out a candle, which was only the size of a finger and very white.
Candle?
Li Xiaotong wondered, "What kind of candle is this?" ”
"This candle is very expensive, usually people can't afford it, this time it's cheaper for you, follow me for a while, don't walk around, remember!" Su Ran looked at the long and short hands of the clock on the wall and pointed to twelve o'clock, and then lit the candle.
The golden flame burned, and then, Li Xiaotong saw that there was a fog beside her.
