Volume 6, Chapter 40: The Water of the Dead
"No," the girl said, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He saved my life, I'm helping him in turn, is there something wrong? ”
Su Xuan smiled strangely: "Help to help, and the feelings will come out." ”
The girl's face is slightly red, don't look over.
In the air, once again, it was solemn.
Roar......
I don't know how long it took, but under the bright moon, there was a roar that seemed like a human but not a human, like a beast but not a beast.
The voice was full of pain and despair, as well as countless struggles.
The girl looked up at the direction of the moon and muttered, "Xiao Xin, you wait a while, you wait a little longer......"
"Silence!"
The middle-aged man shouted, and the already quiet square became even more silent. He said, "The Great Elder is here!" ”
An old man with white eyebrows walked up to the white stone statue with vigorous steps and said loudly, "Before the welcoming ceremony officially begins, there are two decisions to announce to everyone. ”
The old man paused and continued, "First decision! The decision on the execution of the traitor Su Xuan! After investigation, Su Xuan, the wife of the deputy village head Li Xunzhi, violated the ancestral teachings, colluded with outsiders many times, disrupted the normal order of the village, and leaked secrets No. 293 and No. 864. Today, he colluded with outsiders to directly cause our clan's thousand-year-old secret to be lost, and 23 people were injured. The Council of Elders decided to sentence Su Xuan to life imprisonment and not to communicate with outsiders. The ban will not be lifted until the completion of the Guardian mission. ”
Su Xuan under the white stone statue smiled bitterly and didn't say anything, just shook her head.
Li Xun looked at his wife and asked, "I knew this was the case, why did I bother in the first place?" ”
In fact, Su Xuan is just one of his two wives. The other is Li Xin's mother, who died in childbirth when Li Xin was born.
Su Xuan looked at her husband, a trace of hatred flashed in her heart, and said, "All this is not thanks to you!" The more you care about something, the more I'll ruin it. ”
As soon as the old man finished announcing this decision, two strong men came over and pulled Su Xuan away.
"The second decision," the white-haired old man continued, "is the decision on suspect number 681. ”
"Suspect 681 broke into the village today, with strange abilities and unknown identity. According to the ancestral teachings, he should have been put to death. Although he slew the divine beast, he escaped from imprisonment many times. But while he was protecting the ancient tombs of his ancestors and saving the people in the village, he lost his memory and was seriously injured! The presbyterian council first decides: let him drink the water of the past and regain his freedom. ”
"I still want to drink the raw water...... the girl looked at the demented young man under the white stone statue, and said, "He is like this now, whether he drinks the raw water or not, it's all the same." ”
She knew that the water was a way for the village to deal with outsiders.
After drinking this water, everything that is seen and heard in the village is forgotten and becomes a "passing thing", but it does not affect the rest of the person's memory.
The girl shook her head bitterly and said secretly, "He...... After all, you have to forget about me......"
"Wait!" The young man covered in blood let go of the rope, held the swarthy Miao knife beside him, and shouted at Su Xuan.
The two big men holding Su Xuan were immediately stunned, and looked back at the young man suspiciously.
"What's wrong? Could it be that you have something else to do? Su Xuan also looked at him and smiled inadvertently.
The young man shook his head and said, "I remember." I remember you said, you want to get out of here, don't you? ”
"It used to be!"
The young man continued, "And I promised you to help you get out of here. ”
As soon as the young man said this, he said.
The girl Li Xin's face immediately turned pale.
And Li Xun's face was angry.
The two big men who were holding Su Xuan didn't expect that this young man would be so bold, he had just gotten out of trouble, but he wanted to take others away.
The young man staggered over to the two big men
gasped and said, "You guys...... Let her go! ”
"What are you kidding?" One of the big men said, "You also saw it just now, she is our sinner here, how can we let her go?" ”
"You're too much!" Li Xun strode up to the young man and said angrily, "Don't think that the elders will let you go. You'll be able to get an inch. ”
"No!" The young man shook his head, "If I promise someone else's thing, I must do it." I can't remember why I said yes, but I did. So I had to take her out. ”
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Li Xun looked at the stubborn young man in front of him, and then looked back at his daughter, her face was full of worry.
"Sure!" "Although I prefer to brag. But I am serious about every promise I make to others. Even if you don't let me take her now, I'll still find a way to take him away in the future! ”
Li Xun looked at this young man, to tell the truth, he admired this young man very much, and his daughter also had thoughts about him, or he would just leave him behind.
Thinking of this, Li Xun sneered and said, "Since this is the case, then don't go!" ”
"Why? How can you go back on your word? ”
Li Xundao: "We let you go." That means I still treat you as a friend. But you will help our enemies. So, as long as you dare to save her, we will become enemies. We didn't backtrack. That said, here, it's up to you to decide whether to leave or stay. We didn't force you. ”
The young man lowered his head, thought for a while, and said, "I still won't change my choice." Even if I don't know why I want to help her now. ”
"Okay then." Li Xun's heart suddenly was a joy, and he just took this opportunity to develop him into his son-in-law.
Squinted his eyes at his daughter, but saw that there was no joy on her face, only a deep sorrow and worry.
He couldn't help but wonder: wouldn't she be happy if she knew she had ulterior motives?
Even if he was happy in his heart, he couldn't be too explicit, he waved his hand and said, "Let's take it together!" ”
Two strong men came over next to him and tied up the young man.
"Why are you doing this?" Su Xuan looked at the young man, shook his head, sighed, and said, "I used to want to leave here, but now...... Maybe that's the best ending. Li Xun, my business has nothing to do with him, I deceived him in the first place. Just let him go. ”
Li Xun glanced at Su Xuan and said, "I won't do anything to let the tiger return to the mountain, this kid is so stubborn, if I let him go now, who can guarantee that he won't cause trouble for me in the future?" ”
"You...... You're all so ruthless! Su Xuan's face suddenly showed a gritted tooth.
"He's split the two!"
"Yes!"
For Tong, although it is a detention, it can only be regarded as house arrest at best.
A person, except for not being able to move around casually, can move around the entire house.
There were also people who came to help him change his clothes and bathe, and see a doctor to heal his injuries.
He also began to wonder in his heart: This can be regarded as a detention?
It didn't take long for him to change into a classical and handsome robe, and Li Xun brought Li Xin over.
Li Xun asked him with a smile: How does it feel here?
The young man is just piggybacking, and he is even more confused.
Li Xun patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young man, it's good to have a temper!" You just stay here and heal your injuries first, and then talk about other things when your injuries are healed. ”
The young man was ignorant, although he couldn't tell whether this old guy was good or evil, but it was not easy to refuse the kindness of others, not to mention that there was a very well-behaved girl next to him.
He thought to himself, this can't be a bad thing, right?
So, he could only nod at Li Xun.
Li Xun looked back at his daughter, and said to the young man: "You have injuries on your body, and it is inconvenient to live. Let the little girl come and take care of you for a while. ”
The young man was noncommittal, glanced at the girl, and nodded.
"Then I'll go first!" Li Xun was full of spring breeze, glanced back at his daughter, and said in his heart: "Xiaoxin, Dad can only help you get here, as for what the result will be, it all depends on your creation." Father...... Daddy doesn't want you to go our way again......"
After speaking, the tall figure disappeared into the night in some loneliness......
The young man sat on the steps, alone staring at the moon in a daze.
The wind rustles through the bamboo forest.
The maiden also sat beside him and did not speak. After a long time, she said, "I see her......"
The young man didn't answer, just looked at the moon and muttered, "What the hell happened?" Why can't you remember anything? ”
The girl was stunned for a moment and asked, "Did you hear that?" ”
"What?" The young man asked rhetorically.
The girl said, "I said I saw her!" ”
"Who?"
"The girl you're looking for?"
"Am I looking for someone?" The young man asked, confused. Then he nodded again and said, "Maybe." I'm looking for someone, but I just want to go home right now. ”
The girl sighed faintly, and only after a long time asked, "Where is your home?" ”
"Where?" The young man looked at the girl strangely, shook his head, and said, "I haven't thought about it. But I know the name of my company, and the name of one of my subordinates. His name is Liu Xin! ”
"Liu Xin?" The girl nodded and said, "Good! I'll help you find it. What's the name of your company? ”
"Moon and ......"
The young man retracted his gaze, looked in the direction of the square, and asked, "What are you doing?" Why are there so many people in the square? ”
"We've found Wei Ling!" The girl said this, her face unclear whether it was joy or bitterness, and continued, "There will be a ceremony tonight for everyone to officially recognize her. ”
"What is Wei Ling?"
"Alone! A very mysterious person! Our people have waited for so many years just for her......"
"Oh!" The young man thought for a moment and said, "Then I want to go and see it too." ”
"No way!" The girl said, "You ...... now." You're being imprisoned ...... now."
"That's not right!" The young man shook his head and said, "Something is wrong! No way! I'm going to have to go check it out! ”
"What's wrong?" The girl looked into his eyes and asked eagerly, "Did you remember anything?" ”
"I don't know!" The young man's answer was very simple, "I must go and see it!" My knife is gone! I always felt like something bad was going to happen. The Wei Ling you mentioned is in danger. ”
"Why? It's quiet outside! The girl asked, puzzled.
"I don't know!" The young man began to look around for a suitable weapon, saying, "I don't know! That's what it feels like. I can't go wrong with my sense of crisis! I do not know! Not so! Ah! It's messy! I can't say right now, that's what it feels like! ”
"I see!" The girl nodded, "These are your lost memories, they are now hidden in your subconscious, and they are in action." Did you already know what was going to happen before you lost your memory? ”
"Should it be like this?" The young man looked at the huge room and asked, "Where's my knife?" I saw them bring my knife just now, why didn't I see it? ”
"Here!" The girl bit her lip, took out a swarthy Miao knife from behind her, and said, "You are so seriously injured, don't go over." I'm going to talk to my dad and tell him to be more guarded. You're here to stay! When the girl had finished speaking, she trotted out of the yard.
The young man watched her slender figure leave blankly, always feeling that this scene was familiar.
He coughed, took his seedling knife, and staggered out, through the bamboo forest path, and appeared at the edge of the square.
If...... He knew what was going to happen next, and he wouldn't come out.
But the truth is always so impermanent, who knows what will happen in the next second?
The square is still brightly lit. Li Xin stood inside Li Xun, anxiously explaining something, but Li Xun's face only flashed with doubts, and he didn't care too much, and finally pushed Li Xin back with a smile.
Yu Tong stood in the shadow of the bamboo forest, his palms covered with sweat, and looked nervously at the back of the white stone statue.
His instincts told him that something was going to happen tonight. But after all, he couldn't say what it was.
Perhaps, as Li Xin said, the answer lies in the memories he once lost.
"Why are you here?" Li Xin ran over and asked softly.
"I'm not at ease, I'm here."
Li Xin said: "I have no evidence, and I don't have a reasoning process that can particularly convince my father, he doesn't believe me!" ”
"It's fine!" The young man said, "Let's just take a look here!" Check it out right here! ”
He stared at the white stone statue, and he always felt that it was so familiar, the kind of familiarity that was etched in the depths of his soul.
He asked, "Who is that stone statue carved from?" ”
"I don't know, but Dad said it was our ancestors."
The young man nodded and muttered, "I may know her......"
"Know her? How can it be? The girl laughed, "If you know our ancestors, how old do you be?" Hehe! It is estimated that the eyebrows and mustache are all white! ”
The young man didn't speak, just looked at the stone statue silently, and suddenly said, "That's right! I remembered who she was! She's right there with me, still in a hospital bed! ”
"What did you say?" Li Xin looked at the young man in front of him in surprise, and opened his mouth wide in disbelief.
"It's true!" "Not long ago, I brought her out of an ancient tomb. She is frozen and can be resurrected. ”
"So that's ......" Li Xin nodded, suddenly realized, and said, "Then can you take me to see her?" I want to see her! ”
"Yes!" The young man did not refuse, and directly agreed.
"He's escaped again!" At this moment, an angry shout suddenly came from the square.
