Chapter 40: Sister, Why Did You Fall Again...
On the high mountain in the distance, an old man was twisting his beard and muttering to himself in confusion: "I haven't returned my Sanqi yet, that girl was almost killed by her own demons, isn't it that the old man has looked away, and her future road will be to fall into the devil's way?" β
After a long time, he shook his head: "It's a pity that such a good seedling, let's go to other countries to choose an apprentice, and you can also save some snacks." β
"Senior brother, if it weren't for the dangers all the way here, I wouldn't have entrusted her to you because I was worried that I wouldn't be able to retreat with my whole body, otherwise, how about you go on my behalf?" The air on the side suddenly fluctuated, and a voice without much emotion came out of thin air.
The old figure standing on the high mountain froze, then stroked his pale beard and said, "That's it, let's just teach a piece of rotten wood!" β
"Snort." The man chuckled disdainfully in the air: "If you can call the patriarch of the witch clan who has been reincarnated as a spirit girl a dead wood, there is only you in the world." β
"Huh? Witches? Then she will be shocked when she learns about her past life. β
"Senior brother," a light sigh of hatred came from the air, "we are both from the same school, why are you so clumsy?" β
The old man on the mountain instantly exploded: "Who is clumsy?" Make it clear to me! β
"Tell me about you."
"......" The other party was so straightforward that the old man had a feeling of punching the cotton, and he had nothing to say.
The atmosphere began to cool down.
The old man suddenly spoke: "Senior brother, after this mission, remember to find her for me as before." β
"You guy. How many hundred years have passed? I haven't figured it out yet, but this time I'm on a mission, and you're really not worried about me at all? β
When the old man heard this, he just said, "I believe in you." β
The other party was speechless for a long time before he spoke: "I have to go." I hope this time, you can untie the knot. She has something to do with the person you're looking for. Also, I hope that the next time I see you, you're no longer pretending to be a bad old man who wants to die. Even if you regret it again...... When you meet me and her," the other seemed a little reluctant to admit that the old man did not want to see him, but it seemed to be a fact, "you should not torture yourself like this, you should not change yourself because of us." β
"Why, didn't you say you were leaving, why do you still have time to talk here?"
At this time, the other party was completely silent. It seems to be gone. He thought.
He simply sat on the ground and looked at the dazzling sun above his head, the sun sprinkled on the ground a little, but he didn't feel the warmth at all.
"yes. How did I end up like this? He asked to himself, "Actually, I have indeed forgotten the past." I don't hate her anymore. But. I've forgotten what I used to be. Whether it's tearing off the beard that I deliberately glued on, or taking off the hat that I wear on my head all year round, I can't remember the vicious look of myself. β
What should I do? I've thought about this before, but I've forgotten what you look like. I want to get my memories back, even if it's painful. I said let you continue to help me find her, just to give you a reason to keep going, I know, she is your reason to live, right? So, no matter what, please make sure you come back alive this time. β
The reincarnated spirit girl, since you said it has something to do with her, then why don't I go and take a look. Maybe I can see her again and apologize for everything I did in the first place, and after that, I should pay for my actions. That's right, right? β
Ah, it's good that you're gone, otherwise you would have laughed at yourself if you heard it, right? β
He stood up, and reached out to straighten his robeβit was a crack that an old man should have, but his mad words seemed to have not looked like this in the past.
Right now.
"How ββ?" The old man was startled, and tried to catch the person pushing him behind him with his backhand, but it was too late, he knew that he had fallen off the cliff, and he didn't know who was standing behind him.
On the cliff, the man in white looked at the person he pushed down, and was speechless for a long time, until he couldn't see him, and then slowly spoke: "...... Bro...... No, junior sister, I know your mind. Perhaps, the idea that if you asked me to go, I would go away and let you be alone was completely wrong. Who would have thought that I would be with you for so many years? But what you said was wrong β you are the reason why I'm alive. I didn't expect the misunderstanding to be here, so simple, so simple that I regret it..."
But this time, I asked you to help her remember her past life, and it was also to free you...... After all, I may never come back this time. But it's a mission, but it's not. We've all become demons, and the catastrophe is coming, so what else are we going to do? I don't care about things that have nothing to do with you. β
This will be the final goodbye, if you can't come back this time. It's a pity that you can't hear it...... But just one last look at you, and I'm satisfied. β
He sighed and turned away, leaving only an inaudible word blown away by the wind: "I calculated that the man would pass by here today, and you would be fine, I promise." β
Those memories came flooding back, and the scenes of the past flashed quickly in her mind, and finally froze in the familiar sceneβno, the scene that had happened. She was pushed off a cliff and met a demon when she was dying.
"Well, would you like to be like me?" The demon asked.
"What are the conditions?" She snorted coldly and spoke with difficulty.
"Give me your past pleasures."
"It turns out that you are the kind of demon who eats emotions." This is the weakest demon.
The demon was not angry, but looked at her with a smile: "So what, I can at least save you!" β
That's right, the demon can at least save her and let her go back to revenge, so she coughed, swallowed the blood that was about to overflow from her mouth, and replied, "Okay." β
"Huh?" The demon obviously didn't expect her to agree so happily, she impatiently supported her body, "Ah what, why don't you hurry up and save me?" β
After eating her emotions, it is estimated that the demon's demonic power will soar. It's just that to save her, you need to give her some magic power, so it seems...... She met a kind demon.
The demon could have eaten her emotions while she still had a breath, instead of talking nonsense with her like she did now.
"Bang." She came to her senses, and now she was going to die again.
Xiao Xi gritted her teeth, the pink butterflies in her hands flew one after another, very good-looking, she struggled to raise her head, and slowly put the demon gently on the ground, before withdrawing the mana, her body fell backwards because of this sudden withdrawal, she didn't care that the mud on the ground would stick to her clothes, she lay down on the ground, breathing in a big gulp of fresh air, and after a while, she stood up and stepped forward to check the demon.
"Huh?!" Xiao Xi jumped away in surprise, "Sister, why did you fall off the cliff again?!" β
βοΌβ The man on the ground blinked, sat up, and glanced to the side, "Ah, I'm back to my old self." β
"Why are you again, little demon." Xiao Xi heard the other party say this, and replied awkwardly, "Eh, that's right, it's me again!" β
Xiao Xi continued: "Sister, I'll give you back that part of your memory." I've bitten it down, but I think it's barely usable, right? Although he said this in a questioning tone, he could hear the affirmation.
"No need."
"Huh? But I've already released it, sister. Xiao Xi smiled and shook the open bottle in his hand, which once contained the happiness of the woman's life.
A small yellow ball in the air quickly floated towards her.
It looks warm. This was her assessment of the light cluster when she saw it.
No, it's really warm...... She thought so before she passed out.
"Oops. I'll be able to get all those emotions back in no time. Xiao Xi clapped his hands and laughed, but the next second, his whole face was covered with sadness again, "Alas, I knew that I wasn't greedy at the beginning...... Moli's sister's sadness is not delicious at all, and her inner demon is so bitter that she regrets tasting that bite. Oops, really, really! β
Xiao Xi complained while dragging the woman's feet into the depths of the jungle, covered a silk handkerchief with his right hand and sneezed, threw the silk handkerchief casually and said, "Why hasn't the sister who promised me my name come yet, what if she breaks her promise......
The silk handkerchief that fell to the ground burned on its own, and soon calm returned to the bottom of the cliff.
