Chapter 56: The Skeleton Soldier
"Time is running out?" Xiao He muttered quietly, looked up at the girl he was leaning back to, and in a trance he remembered that day on the rooftop.
In the memory that can't tell whether it is a dream or reality, Uncle Geng is also so stunned, as if he wants to say something but is afraid, and she is also afraid, afraid that time is running out.
What about Uncle Geng? What was he afraid of?
Uncle Geng is not yet thirty years old, but his body is as stiff as an old man who should have teased Sun Yi for his old age, and his time is short?
Thinking like this, he was also afraid, and he didn't know where he got the courage to hold the girl's hand tightly.
Hands, trembling, eyes dodging.
He was afraid, afraid that everything in front of him would be a flash in the pan, that everything would leave him, that he would become a forgotten stone, never, never remembered, never owned.
"What are you afraid of?" Bamboo didn't pull away, but looked at him curiously.
"I ......" Xiao He was embarrassed by her, his lips trembled slightly, but he couldn't speak.
Seeing that he was like this, Bamboo didn't want to catch him, but held him in the palm of his hand. looked at him worriedly, "I don't know why they chose you, but I felt that I chose the right choice this time."
On closer inspection, you and Ling Hui are somewhat similar.
It's just that you can calm down, and he's too anxious.
Otherwise, the ancestors would not have cured him. ”
"I ......" Xiao He didn't know what to say for a while, he only felt that the woman in front of him was particularly distressing, as if she had experienced it all her life.
"You watch quietly." Zhu smiled at him, took off his black robe and put it on the ground, and helped him lie down.
Seeing this, Qingxiao was already cruising over, blocking in front of Xiao He and turning into a barrier between him and the bamboo, it looked at the red-eyed old corpse with a heavy reluctance in its eyes, the corners of its eyes were moist, and a teardrop was dripping.
Zhu was getting closer and closer to the old corpse, and she was reading it in pieces as she walked, as if she was saying goodbye to Xiao He, and as if she couldn't bear anything.
"If Ling Hui knew that there was you in the world, he would definitely be pleased.
I think he will forgive me for what I did.
After all, that answer wasn't what he had in mind.
In the end, even the ancestors regretted it. ”
Xiao He looked at her back quietly, wearing a plain white ancient costume on her body, she became more and more lonely, and like the old corpse, she also had a piece of jade pinned to her waist. After a closer look, Xiao He found that the ornaments on the two pieces of jade were almost the same, and it seemed that they should have been a pair.
"What do you want to do?" When Bamboo stood up, the red-eyed old corpse sensed the danger, but three dead people with only skeletons suddenly came out of the soil on one side.
Those dead people entangled him again, and he could barely make a few of them, but although the number of these skeletons that came out now was small, their strength was far from being comparable to that of Fang Cai.
He won't be able to support it.
"I told you you were dead." She laughed, "I've given you a chance, too."
If you are a dead thing, a newcomer, it is your fault not to pay a visit to them first.
They are all soldiers who have followed Ling Hui, and they are also willing to protect Ling Hui with me. Now that they're awake, it's not up to me to be merciful. ”
The three skeletons still had enough strength to deal with the red-eyed old corpse, and as they trapped him, they all looked at the bamboo, and then a deep, noisy voice came from the empty chest.
"Jian Zhu?" They had just come out of the dirt, and their minds weren't too clear. But the general course of the matter has also been clarified.
"I'm here." Bamboo nodded.
"Ling Hui, what do you want us to do?" They were a little embarrassed but helpless.
Zhu was stunned, but smiled again, she pointed at Xiao He. "He'll be the new Ling Hui.
The ancestors also regretted the previous things, and there was no need to continue it. It's hard for you, big brothers, you ...... look like this now."
"No problem." The three skeletons shook their heads, their bones crackling.
"When Ling Hui was alive, he said that if he was gone, the girl's business would be his business. How we are, girls don't have to take it to heart. ”
"I'm afraid you won't be able to do it." Jian Zhu shook his head, barely squeezing out a smile. "I'll do it, this wicked man.
It's been thousands of years, and it's time to end it. ”
She took a deep breath, and there were already some tears in the corners of her eyes, "There have been too many changes in the past thousand years, and it is good to have this ending now."
This may be Ling Hui's life, and it is also the child's life, and it is also destined for me thousands of years ago.
It's time for the big brothers to go, and the grievances of the past life should be forgotten. ”
"Is it a thousand years?" One of the skeletons sighed, "The people of those days are long gone, aren't they?" Even if it's a descendant......
Girl, do you want us to let go? ”
"Put it down." She nodded, her hand gently stroking the imprisoned red-eyed corpse, her fingertips tapping his forehead. That was the answer he asked for back then, but the ancestors deceived him.
Today, I don't know how long it can last. If he really did what the ancestors thought back then, and turned into a general, he was afraid that the bloody storm on the battlefield would reappear.
However, the people of the world today are no longer what they used to be. The people of the past, even the descendants were drowned in the bustling dust. I looked for it, but I couldn't find it. ”
"The girl's words, the three of us brothers understand." The three skeletons glanced at each other, silently relenting their strength, and the red-eyed old corpse was also directly fainted by the point in Jian Zhu's eyebrows just now.
"I also asked a few big brothers to help me help the child over." She had already helped up the fallen "Ling Hui", "That yellow immortal, I can't trap him for long." It's just a pity that he has a good cultivation, and I don't know if the kid can withstand it. ”
The three skeletons glanced at each other, ghosts and the like were already sensitive to the breath of blood, and as the two got closer and closer, their steps towards Xiao He became heavier and heavier.
Xiao He also felt this strangeness, but what could he do?
Although Jian Zhu said that it was very serious, Xiao He, who was inexplicable, could feel that she really seemed to have good intentions for herself. It's like two friends who have known each other for a long time, he knows her and is sure that she will not harm him.
The skeleton people stopped before they could walk in front of Xiao He, their empty eyes staring intently at the blood on the ground. "Girl, who is he?"
"I don't know." Jian Zhu shook his head, and his face became more and more pale. Her brows furrowed, "Anyway, it's barely a Qu family." ”
"Is there anyone else surnamed Qu now?" The skeleton man's tone was a little melancholy.
The other skeleton man said, "The girl just said that thousands of years have passed, and it is normal to have them.
This, it's been providence for a long time, the providence that Ling Hui and we didn't expect. ”
"Big brothers, this kid, what's the problem?" Jian Zhu was also uneasy when he heard what they said.
"His blood." A skeleton said, "It reminds us of Ling Hui back then."
Or, he is Ling Hui. ”
"But that's it." Jian Zhu pursed her lips and said helplessly, "That won't change anything."
The last generation of the Gu family has also gone down the mountain, and time is running out. Moreover, now that he is innocent, Jian Zhu, the ancestor's mistake, does not want to do it again. ”
"So." One of the skeletons clasped his fists and saluted, "Do as the girl thinks." ”
