Chapter 179: The Rain of Eternal Sleep
The dense rain fell leisurely through the thick and cold clouds, carrying the whistling wind, fluttering like butterflies. Thunder and lightning shone through the white curtain on Shuo Ming's cheeks, highlighting his coldness even more, and he stood expressionlessly in front of the crystal ball on the table, pursing his lips slightly.
"Demon God Difeng, are you hiding something from me?"
The chaotic aura in the crystal ball turned into a blood-red magic eye, and let out a playful sneer: "That's another 'me' arbitrariness, what does it have to do with me?"
"Don't pretend to be garlic with me, what does he think, you don't know?"
"You're too worried, I can guarantee that he won't be our enemy for someone's sake. ”
"Could it be that you want to collect all the seven artifacts and then use Shen Fangli's body to resurrect the evil god Ina?" Shuo Ming couldn't bear it, and twisted his head to the side.
"What? Why can you use the Dream Stone to awaken Yuna's primordial spirit? I can't use it to resurrect my loved ones?"
Shuo Ming took out a white cloth from his pocket to cover the crystal ball, was silent, and said for a long time: "You let me think about it for a while." ”
The sound of pushing the door interrupted Shuo Ming's thoughts, and he saw Yuna, who had changed into a robe, waving goodbye to him.
"Why can't you just wait for the rain to stop?"
A chill hit outside the house, making Yuna's voice tremble: "Thank you for taking care of me for the past two days, I ...... And the family...... If I'm not there...... They'll be in a hurry......"
"It turns out that a person has been lonely for a long time, and suddenly meets some people who treat you sincerely, so he willingly becomes a stand-in for others. ”
"No...... I'm not ......."
At the moment when Yuna rushed to close the door of the store, Shuo Ming's indifferent words were deeply engraved in her mind.
"I can give you time to recognize yourself, two years, five years...... Or even longer, until the day you give up the expectations of others and return to your original self. ”
All the memories she was looking for were for others, and the people around her were smarter and better than her, and without her, others could have lived well, but she couldn't.
The loss of her companion meant that all the efforts she had put in so far would be useless, she was not as wise as Gui Xun'er, she could deal with many problems on her own, and she did not have the courage to face her fate without Lan Lingxiang, as long as the four of them could get together as noisily as before, she would be very satisfied.
There are secrets in the hearts of people in the world, and if you don't find out about them, you are respectful, and as long as you cherish each other, you are friends.
However, her friend's parting was attributed to her uselessness, and it was her failure to recognize the reality and trust others that led to today's situation, all of which were her fault......
The dim light shines through the glass, reflecting the sad faces of Mai Xiaomo and Ji Yangke, and Mu Yunxi sits on the sofa opposite the two, interlocking his fingers and maintaining a upright sitting posture.
How could he suddenly appear at his sister's house? Could it be that he had come for the priest?
As soon as the tip of the umbrella touched the edge of the window, the heavy conversation in the room confirmed her suspicions.
"Madam! Shen Fangli is not here today, so I will say it directly. ”
"But it doesn't matter, I'll tell her for you. ”
Mu Yunxi collapsed on the sofa, closed his eyes and was silent for a while, and said calmly.
"The person Ling Mei has always wanted to save, he is dead!"
Mu Yunxi's words hit Yuna's heart like a spindle, and the umbrella slipped from her hand, letting the pouring rain drench her whole body, wondering if she had heard it wrong.
Although Ling Wenxuan tried his best to stop the secret of relieving his heart from Pei Qiu, a disciple of the Venerable Miaoguang, the spiritual guilt turned into physical pain, and it was so deep that it was irreparable, and he died in the Hidden Dragon Cave guarded by the three venerables himself last night due to his injuries. ”
Mu Yunxi waited for a while, and after the couple's mood calmed down, he continued.
After the deliberation of the three major religions and the four major families, it was unanimously decided to take the foot of the Hidden Dragon Mountain as his eternal resting place, which can be regarded as a commendation for him as the first person to successfully resist the punishment of the Liberation of the Heart in the hundred years since the founding of the Tianshi Sect. ”
"At present, it seems that this is the only way, I hope she will not be overly sad because of this news!"
As soon as Mai Xiaomo finished speaking, the loud noise by the window prompted Mu Yunxi to turn his head suddenly, facing the pair of blue eyes that had no luster.
Mu Yunxi ran out wildly, grabbed Youna's slippery hands, and said in a straight and round way.
"Since you heard it, I'll repeat it again, Ling Wenxuan is really dead!"
"Don't say it again, I don't want to hear it!" "Yuna struggled to break free of Mu Yunxi's hand and covered her ears, "Father Priest is just in eternal sleep like I used to, I must wake him up." ”
Pursue...... Or not chasing?
Under the worried gaze of the family of three in front of the door, Mu Yunxi finally chose the latter.
Yuna's back faded away, and she threw her arms and ran, skirting the alley, and passing through the street corner, until Mu Yunxi's line of sight could no longer catch it.
The rain had slowed down, not wanting to miss the puddle of sewage on the ground, causing her to slip and fall backwards, hitting the back of her head right on the head of the woman behind her.
"Rub it, don't walk long, be careful, okay?" the woman scolded, shoved her away, and rubbed her forehead.
When the woman closed the umbrella, Yuna realized that it was the prostitute Yarita.
At the same time, the other party also recognized her, brushed the water droplets on her sideburns, and smiled: "Yo! Isn't this the little sister who participated in the singer audition contest last time?
"Don't worry about it!" Yuna wiped the mud from her elbow and walked forward without raising her head.
"You're running around here, you might as well go in and have a drink with your sister. Relentlessly, Yalita stepped forward and put her arm around her shoulders and pointed across the street to the restaurant.
"Snow Dove Restaurant" four large colorful characters glowing with neon appeared in front of the two of them.
Unknowingly, Yuna actually ran here, is this an accident or a coincidence?
This time, no matter how much she dodged, she was still dragged by Yalita and pulled into the place where she had been working as a temporary worker for more than ten days.
All the staff in the store knew Yuna, so they were very worried about her mental state, but two of her old alumni happened to be absent today, the bartender who came to substitute for her was a little clumsy, and the other customers were not ashamed of Yarita's status as a prostitute, and avoided the two of them from a distance.
But Yalita didn't care, she just took half a sip of the cocktail and vomited it all back into her glass.
"What the hell are you tuning! In terms of manual work, Jia Chao is 10,000 times better than you! If you are not professional enough, you will flash aside, so as not to be embarrassed. ”
"You're all women, can you not be so dirty, if someone kicks you out, I can't help you. Yuna smiled wryly with a tired face, and wrung out the wet cuffs vigorously, "You wait here for me for a while, and let you taste my craftsmanship later, I have also been an intern bartender for a while, and I still have an impression of the specific steps." ”
With that, Yuna went back to the locker room to change into a clean uniform, dried her hair, and returned to the bar, playing a mournful music with only wine glasses, ice cubes, spoons and other props, and at the end of the song, a glass of snowy mountain wine was presented in front of Yarita.
The first smell of the aftertaste is endless, and the deep drink is refreshing, and Yarita's tears also fall.
"You are also a woman, but you don't know how to be a woman, blame you for not listening to my advice before, one day you will be like me by the reality of dreams, but really desires, and end up with a tragic end of regret for life. ”
Yuna suddenly poured herself a glass of wine: "I'm not like you, even if I finally fail due to lack of strength, it is ten thousand times better than the vanity obtained by means." ”
"Yes! I didn't realize until now that vanity doesn't lead to success, but it's too late. Yalita took a few more puffs and fiddled with the cup in her hand, "The second and third times since I first sold my body for money, I was extremely disgusted with myself, but I was under the pressure of survival...... Just like the wine you make, once you fall in love with it, you can't quit it. ”
"Wine is such a bad thing, no wonder he never drinks. ”
Yalita's face was slightly drunk, and she shook her wine glass and added: "Wine is also a good thing, it can make you release your feelings when you are sad, but what I am curious about is that you were so sad just now, why didn't you shed a single tear, did you drink enough?
Yuna's body was slightly stunned, and she noticed that there were two more empty wine bottles beside her at this time.
"He's gone, who am I crying to?"
It is not the effect of alcohol that makes people sleep, but the loneliness that comes from rainy nights. The memories of the past are shown in the drink, leaving her with infinite regrets.
She is a person with no memory, and she lives for him the day she first awakens.
He had said that he would help her regain her memory, but now he broke his promise. The only thoughts she had lost their meaning.
A finger of red nails pinched the coin and moved it to her eyes, and in the dim sight saw Yarita's smiling face.
"After listening to your story, I want to know, what is he really to you?"
"Of course, it's the priest, an admirable existence!"
"It's good not to be a lover......"
"What do you mean?" Yuna's cheeks flushed with drunkenness, and her eyelashes closed slightly.
"Little sister, no normal person can never grow up, your priest is gone, and then you can only bear what you should bear alone. Alita broke Yuna's palm open and handed her a stack of coins.
"This guest, the wine money is a total of one hundred and fifty beers, and you have given too much. ”
"Not much, this is just the extra tip he gave me after I provided services to Jia Chao last time, I never eat people softly, and I take people short. ”
Looking at Yarita who was fading away, Yuna couldn't help but feel sorry for herself.
Death turned out to be like this, that is, that person is gone, and will never listen to her sing again, never make her laugh again, and never ...... again You won't call her Cortana......
Eternal sleep is the closest thing to death, and under the rainy night, she would rather everything be a dream, and would rather never wake up.
