Chapter 17: The Past
"Chase the waves." Gentle and elegant voice.
"Qing Yu." It's still a gentle voice.
"Jimo Qingyu." The voice suddenly became like a cold day.
"Thousands of unjust souls, and hundreds of lives of the Mo family, you have to give an explanation. This is what you owe. ”
"The lives of hundreds of people in the Mo family must also be explained."
It was as if the nightmare continued, and I seemed to be on the Broken Soul Cliff again, the raindrops were cold, and the cold was heart-piercing, and the people in front of me were covered by rain and fog, except for a sharp sword, revealing a cold light in the lightning from time to time.
Repeating those words in my head, there seemed to be another voice saying that I would not die without stopping, so no one stopped me from holding the sword blade, and for a moment my neck splashed red, and I stumbled back to the edge of the Broken Soul Cliff, laughed miserably, and fell into the bottom of the Broken Soul Cliff.
The thunder and lightning flashed in the sky, splitting the soul into two, half fixed in the body, half unrestrained, drifting with the wind, as if floating into the clouds, and then falling into the cold pool.
Qing Yu's name went back and forth, all of them were the tone of his sweetheart who was sometimes gentle and affectionate, sometimes angry and resentful, and sometimes counted nine cold winters.
I opened my mouth, but I couldn't make any sound.
My head stabbed again, and the past in the depths of my memory came flooding back.
Vaguely, I heard the voices of my deceased parents.
"My son was born with a blue bird to congratulate, so he took the name, Qing Yu, do you like it? Well...... Don't speak? When you acquiesce. The voice was low and deep, but the tone was extremely casual.
"Madam~ What do you think of our child's name? Isn't it great? "Rejoice in a praising tone.
"You," chuckled, "he was born yesterday, where can he speak?" Come, let me see the children. "Gentle and gentle.
"Eh, this child is too heavy, and the lady is weak, so she should remember the weight and hold it for her husband, just look at it."
"A child looks like you."
"But my husband wants a child with the same eyebrows and eyes as his wife, what do you think of ...... madam?"
“…… What nonsense. "Visibly embarrassed.
"Want another girl? Good or bad? Madam? Do you say good or bad? ”
“…… Old and not serious. ”
Laboriously lifted his eyelids, which were the eyebrows and eyes familiar to his parents, and through the gap in his clothes, the sunlight pierced his eyes, and he didn't feel a little moist.
This is the Jimo family that collapsed a hundred years ago.
On the window lattice, there is a green feather.
My mind was chaotic, and I felt sleepy, and I didn't know if this situation was a dream or a dream, or if the previous things were dreams.
The Demon of Calamity, the Immortal Sword and the Sword Spirit are all vain, and ...... Master Mo.
Friend Han Yi, disciple Han Xiao, apprentice Immortal, Demon Sword Nameless......
Maybe they have never met and met, and they have never intersected.
Seem...... Something was missing, but I didn't want to remember it.
Only the way, if it is true...... If he is no longer too entangled with Mo Baiyi, he will not make Mo Baiyi carry so much, he should marry Su Wanwan as the old master of Mo wishes, and work together with her to cultivate and become a true immortal.
Gradually, the consciousness became blurred, as if ...... Something was missing, but I didn't want to remember.
Twelve years later –
"Jimo Qingyu! Bastard boy! You stand for the old decay! ”
On this day, the sky was sunny.
I asked my classmates and brothers to cover up, and quietly escaped through the window in class, and called the gentleman who taught etiquette to hit me.
Mr. is already in his old age, the body is still quite tough, my father said that the students taught by Mr. are gentle and elegant, and a naughty boy like me should let Mr. teach well, so he hired his old man to come to teach me, every time I see him speak three or two sentences, I must drink two sips of water, and then rest, I will fall asleep, if I am caught, I will be handed over to my father for a good training, and it is really miserable.
This gentleman was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and drove a few miles with his cane, so tired that he was panting, beating his waist while hitting the ground angrily with his cane.
A small head poked out of the corner, and he could vaguely see his mother's appearance, "Brother, you skipped class again!" Let Daddy hold it, and you'll be done~"
The little girl who speaks is my sister who is two years younger than me, and her surname is Jimo like me, but her name is Liuyu, her father has always spoiled her, and she is spoiled like a brute girl, how can everyone in the boudoir be gentle.
I raised my hand and tapped her little head and said, "You're not?" Let your mother see that you didn't learn calligraphy and painting obediently, and you won't be much better. ”
Ruyue rubbed her head and stuck out her tongue at me: "Each other!" ”
The gentleman in the compartment rested enough, and called the guards and disciples to chase after him, and I made a look with Liuyue: "I'll go and lure them away, the one who sells shortbread in the city will gather, and wait obediently so that you are not allowed to run around, and my brother will buy it for you." ”
Lu Yue responded happily, turned around and ran, and climbed over the wall faster than me.
The guards didn't dare to treat me, the young master, all of them were not half a cup of tea, I lay on the beam of the room and secretly looked at the gentleman so angry that he knocked on the crutches again, and his intuition was that after going back, it was my father's training, and my head was big when I thought about it.
No matter, let's talk about it when we've had enough.
Shortly after Chinese New Year's Eve, there was still some snow on the ground, and the wind was blowing a little cold, so I rolled up my sleeves and ran to the shortbread shop in Xihe City.
About because the weather is still cold, there are not many pedestrians in Xihe City, and they come and go in a hurry, Liuyue is wearing a pink and tender jacket skirt, combing a small braid on her head to make two balls, each with a pink head rope, the tip of her nose is red, like a pink rabbit, standing next to the shortbread shop, holding a pastry in one hand and eating a mouth full of pastry crumbs, very bold.
I paid the bill and led Ryuyue around, and after a lap, Ryuyue had a big bag of snacks in her arms.
Seeing that the warm sun was westward, I wanted her to go back first, lest her parents look for her, and no one at home was there, so it would be bad, but Liuyue was unwilling, pouted and turned her face to the side, and snorted. I can't only take her to the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city.
I once heard my classmates say that in the rumored snowy days, you can see the little snow demon in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city, some say that the snow demon looks strange and wants to eat people, some say that the little snow demon looks beautiful like a flower, very good-looking, and some say that the little snow demon will turn into a snow rabbit, which is very cute.
"Click......"
In his arms, he also deliberately carried a stack of rune paper that had just been written last night, cinnabar was taken in his father's study, and the rune paper was the best paper for his mother to choose.
"Click......"
I couldn't help but interject and said: "My drawing talismans in the past few days are not practiced in vain, I must catch a demon and go back to show them today, I have a long insight, hum~"
"Click......"
But then again, the kid behind him blatantly followed us all the way, what did he want to do?
"Click......"
I wrinkled my eyebrows when I heard it: "I said sister, can you have a beautiful look and eat more gentlely?" I'll hear you eat all the way. ”
Liuyue raised her head, her mouth was stuffed, she still grabbed some in her hand, and she was about to stuff it into her mouth, and after thinking about it, she raised her hand higher, chewed it in her mouth, swallowed half of it, and said vaguely: "It's delicious, my brother will eat it too." ”
I looked at her hand of pastry crumbs and felt a little disgusted, but I looked at her short size and tried to stretch her hands on tiptoe, and hesitated to take it.
When it was about to be touched, the girl shoved the shortbread in her hand into her mouth and smiled slyly.
I shouldn't have trusted this man who has always eaten the most.
When we reached the outskirts of the city, the man who had been following us fell to the ground with a snap, and he did not get up, and seeing that he was also dressed in tatters, and his clothes were not covered, I stepped forward and lifted him open, revealing a ...... With a cat-like face, he thought about wrapping the cloak around him, and when he saw that the person was not moving, he reached out and poked it.
The child opened his mouth and said, "Hungry." ”
I thought I had misheard, so I leaned in and listened, this time with one more word.
"I'm hungry......"
Oh, I kind of know why this guy has been with us all the way, it turned out that I was provoked by a snack seller who was walking and eating with a big bag of food by my side, and eating unusually loudly.
I beckoned, I wanted to grab a piece of pastry, I didn't want Liuyue to graciously touch a piece of pastry to me, so I broke it and fed it to the child, the child chewed and devoured, opened a pair of dark eyes, reached out and grabbed the pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, Liuyue looked at him like this, and took out a piece of pastry and handed it to me, just to my hand and was snatched by the child again, stuffed into the mouth, and so on three times, Liuyue's pocket bottomed out, and the child suddenly grabbed his neck with one hand, and beat his chest with the other.
Probably...... It's choking, the pastry is dry, and it's strange if you don't choke on eating it like he does.
Lu Yue shrank back in fright, and I whispered comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay." Then he took a handful of snow, turned it into rune paper, burned it into water, and fed it to him.
After drinking the water, the child breathed a long sigh of relief, and a pair of dark and translucent eyes stared straight at me, and then fell straight down.
Scares Ryutsuki and me out of sight.
It's the first time I've ever turned into talisman water for people to drink......
Reach out to probe your child's snort...... If there is, it seems to be nothing.
Human life is at stake, so I can only go back to Jimo's house in Xihe City first, and find my mother to see if this person has lost half my life by drinking my talisman water.
The little snow demon didn't catch it, and I didn't see it.
Fortunately, when he returned to Jimo's house, he was still angry, and his mother took his pulse, but said with a smile: "This child is fine, but he is hungry and tired, and his health is too poor, so he fell asleep when he was full." ”
My sister and I breathed a sigh of relief, and then my father who rushed to the study to reprimand him, and finally threw the subject that Mr. said in front of me, saying that it was a punishment for copying a hundred times, and he was not allowed to rest if he couldn't finish copying, and as for his sister, her mother reprimanded her in the room, crying aggrieved and sobbing, and it was not much better.
On the second day, the child I picked up woke up, saying that his name was Bai Yu, an orphan who was abandoned by his father and his mother had ascended to the west early, and lived by begging.
After Bai Yu woke up, his mother ordered the maid to wash it clean, change into a set of winter clothes, look handsome, and act like a runaway boy, but he has a shallow face and few words, and he has been in class with me for a few days, and he is mixed with those naughty mischievous people in the class, and he naturally has a more affinity with me, often going in and out together, so that I can instigate and skip class together.
I still haven't given up the plan to go to the mountains behind Xihe City to catch the snow demon, every time it snows these days, Liuyue, me and Bai Yu will go together to find the snow demon, but after a few days still haven't found it, Liuyue lost patience, shouting that this legend is a legend, there is no snow demon at all, and I won't go the next day.
Later, when I learned to forge a spirit sword according to the sword formula, Bai Yu would be on the sidelines, quietly.
One day, seeing him so well-behaved, his eyes sparkling, should be interested in forging swords, I asked him to try to cast, but I saw that he cast swords in a good way, but I don't remember what materials should be added, so I added them.
It happened that during a routine inspection by his father, he saw that Bai Yu was like this, and he greatly appreciated his talent for sword casting, so he discussed with his mother, Bai Yu was considered to have no father and no mother, and his talent for sword casting was rare, so it was better to adopt him directly as an adopted son, and he could practice sword casting with me.
I rejoice in the addition of a brother.
Liuyue was also happy, to the effect that there was a more reliable brother, and I was very depressed when I heard it.
