Chapter 275: Reunion

(This chapter was written on the night of the Lantern Festival, hence the name, which fits both the plot and the scene.) )

Yueqin's coiled hair was completely scattered due to the struggle, and she urgently shouted at Ouyang Xiaoleng: "Tell me quickly, who taught you this song?!" ”

"Changqin and Ruri." Ouyang Xiaoleng stopped the sound of the piano and answered.

Just now, everyone was only focusing on the battle between Ling Yu and Yueqin, so no one knew when Ouyang Xiaoleng recovered from his state of despair. Now he has a calm expression, and while controlling Yueqin's demonic nature with the Soul Soothing Demon Suppression Song, his own confusion is also completely taken away by this song.

"So you've seen my father...... The two of them? Yueqin knelt on the ground and continued to ask.

"Yes, not only that, but I've also met your daughter Dongqing."

"Dong Qing! Dong Qing, is she okay?! ”

As soon as she heard her daughter's name, Yueqin's breathing and heartbeat became urgent.

"She is by Changqin and Liuli's side, although it is rare to leave the Youlan Cave Mansion once, but she still lives happily. Before Changqin took her out of the Divine Domain, her memory was erased, so all along, she thought they were her parents. It was only when we found Changqin and Liuli seeking a way to deal with your gods and demons that she heard it from the sidelines and learned about her own background. ”

"Alas......"

Yueqin sighed, she was wondering if Dong Qing would be happier if she forgot her and Feng Lan, and also forgot the upheaval of her childhood, as well as the painful experience of being separated from her parents?

"Now it's my turn to ask you, is the soul exchange really over?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked almost word for word.

Yueqin hesitated for a few seconds, but still said, "Yes, it's over!" ”

"You're lying! No way! Lingyu dragged his badly injured arm and staggered over.

"Whether you believe it or not, this is an unchangeable fact!"

Yueqin's face was as expressionless as ever, so others couldn't guess whether her words were true or false.

"Mother, Father......"

A woman's voice came from far away from outside the temple, almost hoarse.

"It's Dong Qing!" Ouyang Hongye heard that the owner of that voice was none other than Dong Qing they had seen in the Youlan Cave Mansion.

"What?!" Yueqin couldn't believe her ears.

She struggled to get up from the ground, dragging the chains that were still tied to her body, and was about to rush in the direction from which the sound came, but after a few steps, she fell to the ground again.

"Chu He, can there be a girl from outside the Laofang Temple to come in!" Ouyang Hongye pleaded with Chu He, who was holding the little one.

"Good!"

Chu He nodded, and exerted his power to open the door of the temple.

After a while, the tall girl they had seen in the Youlan Cave Mansion appeared in the main hall. Her eyes searched the open space of the hall for the figures of her parents, but she could not find the two faces in her vague memory.

"Dongqing, I'm here!"

Yueqin left two lines of tears in her eyes in anticipation, and she didn't need to hesitate at all, she recognized it at a glance that it was her and Feng Lan's daughter.

"Mother?"

Dong Qing's eyes were full of suspicion, the girl in front of her who claimed to be her mother looked very young, at most sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was not the same person as the mother she remembered.

Seeing that Yueqin wanted to pull out an arm from the chain that bound her, Ouyang Xiaoleng loosened the tie for her. Her heart was mixed for a while, and her feet became incessant. I tried a few times, but I still couldn't get up from the ground, so I kept beating my chest in pain, choking and saying, "It's me, Dongqing, I'm your mother!" ”

When Dong Qing returned to Youlan Cave Mansion from the mountain that day, he heard about his parents, and after the demonic hair, he reawakened the memories of his childhood. The memory she had just recovered seemed to have happened yesterday, and she was so distressed that the thought that she might be able to see her parents again made her sleep.

But Changqin and Liuli didn't want her to get involved in this battle between her parents and the lord of the demon world, because this time her parents took refuge in Qingyun and used the soul exchange technique to resurrect, which was likely to alarm the divine domain, and if the gods sent someone to deal with them again, maybe it would affect Dong Qing, then their hard work to raise them and protect them so far would be in vain.

But what can cut off the bond between a child and his parents? Dong Qing still managed to go down the mountain. She guessed that her parents should already be in the third temple by this time, so she went straight to the Matsuyama Temple in the hidden pine. I thought I would recognize my parents at a glance, but I forgot that resurrection through soul exchange means that my current parents are using someone else's body.

"Are you really my mother?"

Although not far away, the girl who claimed to be her mother looked so unfamiliar, Dong Qing still walked over tentatively.

Yueqin was so choked up that she couldn't say a word, so she couldn't stop nodding her head. When she saw Dong Qing looking at her, her eyes were full of fear and doubt, which made Yueqin also begin to regret it. She thought that maybe the idea of resurrecting herself with soul exchange was a mistake in itself, for in her daughter's eyes, she was more like a monster than a stranger, and she must be far from what she remembered.

But she still couldn't help but raise her hand to hold Dong Qing's hand, her hand was very cold, and she still felt a little like shrinking back the moment she made contact with her, but in the end she let her hold it.

Yueqin took a deep breath and asked, "Mother's appearance scares you, right?" ”

"I didn't ...... No, it's just that you are not the same as I remember. ”

Dong Qing didn't tell the truth, at first she didn't believe it when she heard that her parents relied on the evil spell of soul exchange to resurrect, but when the truth was in front of her, she couldn't help but believe it.

"Is this body very different from the original me?" Yueqin tried to make the conversation between herself and her daughter Dongqing more natural in order to break her defenses.

"Well, the mother in my memory is shorter, although she doesn't have any expression, but she is still very beautiful. He always gently stroked my head, cooked me delicious food, and taught me to play the piano and sing......"

The pictures of living with her mother in her childhood suddenly came to Dongqing's mind, although they were just scattered fragments, they were so precious.

"Remember the houses we lived in together?"

"I have some impressions, but the one I remember most clearly is the little house we lived in before we separated, because that's where I met my father."

Dong Qing's previous nervousness gradually disappeared, and remembering the scene when she first met her father made her smile inadvertently.

"Yes to ......"

Yueqin looked at her daughter carefully over and over again, as if she wanted to carve her into her eyes.

"Mother, will you never be able to recover? And also...... What about the previous owner of this body? What did she do? ”

The warmth that had just been established between mother and daughter was disturbed by Dong Qing's series of questions.

"This ......"

Yueqin turned her face away, not knowing how to answer her daughter.

"Just tell her that Sister Xia will die because her body was forcibly occupied by you, and her soul will always wander in the realm of soul separation." Ling Yu pointed at Yueqin and roared.

After listening to the accusations of the injured young man, Dong Qing turned to Yueqin and asked, "What he said is not true, mother?" ”

"I just want to see you again."

Yueqin didn't know how to explain to Dong Qing why she had made such a choice, she had to hold her hand tighter, for fear that if she relaxed a little, she would withdraw her hand from her.

"I want to see you too......"

Dong Qing cried out all of a sudden because of Yueqin's words, as if she had suddenly been lit with a tearful acupuncture point.

"Don't cry, child! In fact, the soul exchange technique of this body has not been completed, and this girl can still be saved. Yueqin finally spit out the truth.

"What?! Are you serious?! Lingyu rushed forward and grabbed Yueqin's shoulder, shaking it back and forth and asked.

"Yes!" Yueqin replied weakly.

She felt that there was no need to hide the truth now, their four gods had been defeated in the hands of the demon king fox and others, which was equivalent to losing the use value for Qingyun. Although she hasn't been in contact with him for too long, she has long realized how ruthless Qingyun is, and he will definitely not show mercy to those useless chess pieces.

And now, she has seen her daughter Dong Qing, and she can be regarded as having fulfilled her wish, so it is better to simply return Xia Qiu's body to the Demon King Fox, and let them promise to ensure Dong Qing's safety. In this way, it can also make the daughter stop thinking that her mother is a monster.

"Dong Qing, help me up! Meet your daddy! Yueqin tugged Dong Qing's hand and said.

"Good!"

Dong Qing helped Yueqin up in response, and walked towards the orange-robed young man lying on the ground not far away, as expected, the body that her father was using now had nothing to do with her impression.

"Brother Lan, open your eyes and see, this is our daughter Dongqing!" Yueqin called affectionately.

"Daddy!" Dong Qing still called out.

"Ah......h

Feng Lan's eyelids moved slightly, and then he struggled to open his eyes two slits, and he breathed a few times in excitement, and then opened his mouth and laughed.

"Brother Lan, did you see it? Our daughter has grown up and looks like you, right? ”

Feng Lan didn't know if he was hallucinating, and when Yueqin said this, he clearly saw a smile of relief on the corner of her mouth.

"yes, the last time I saw her, she was still that small, ahem......"

He coughed a few more times, and then a large mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Even if his appearance has changed, Dong Qing can still recognize his father's unique smile, although he is the son of the wind god and the snow girl, but his smile is like a warm light in winter, which makes people feel happy. She let go of her mother Yueqin's hand, lifted her father's head a little, and used her sleeve to wipe the remaining blood stains from the corners of his mouth.

"It's nothing, I'm so happy to be able to look at you like this." Feng Lan's voice was a little weaker again.

Even Ouyang Xiaoleng couldn't bear to break the picture of this family of three reuniting, he believed that Yueqin was not lying, Xia Qiu was still saved, and there was nothing more fortunate for him. And judging from Yueqin's attitude, she seems to have given up on the idea of continuing to oppose them.

At this time, Qianqi, who had been in a coma due to serious injuries, also woke up, he sat up and looked around, but he still couldn't figure out the current situation, and what made him even more unbelievable was that Dong Qing would appear in this Songshan Temple.
