163: The Truth

Chinese Lu Donglai hung his head and looked at the ground, and did not answer for a long time.

"Lu Dong is coming!" Nan Zhao's eyes were full of obsession to seek answers, and he couldn't help but grab the other party's arms with both hands.

Feeling the strength of her palm, as if it was about to be embedded in his arm, Lu Donglai was no longer silent and asked her in a low voice

"What do you think—how did you survive the catastrophe?" Nan Zhao is very smart, sometimes, she can guess without others saying more, and this time it is the same, but for a long time, she didn't dare to speak, because a terrible conjecture had already wandered in her heart.

"Did you help me survive the catastrophe?" Lu Donglai told her

"On that day, he injected his aura into your body, and then used life-sustaining ointment to help you keep your life, so that you could barely live, but the death disaster was not over!"

"And then?" For the first time, she saw a trace of unbearability on the face of this little Taoist priest. I can't bear to go on.

Is it because she is afraid, and she is unable to accept it?

"For you at that time, the only way to survive was death, but there is a way to help you survive this catastrophe." Lu Donglai told her

"At that time, he didn't think of it, but he did!"

"What is it?"

"Collect the Spirit Flower for you!" He slowly raised his eyes, recovering the coldness of the previous Daoist,

"Only when you are strong enough can you survive the death tribulation, but a small amount of Spirit Flower Spirit is not enough to save you, at least three are needed!" 3 capsules...... Nan Zhao only felt that the sun at noon was dazzling, she frowned and buried her head, and asked in a choked voice

"As it is...... How many Spirit Flowers does he have? ”

"Three!" When she heard this answer, her mouth opened slightly, and all the words she wanted to say turned into tears flowing from the corners of her eyes.

"As he is...... He gave me all the spirit of the spirit flower, then he ......" Lu Donglai had to tell her

"Nanzhao, he's gone!" Nan Zhao's whole body froze in place, she felt the heavens and the earth spinning, and the wanton wind squeezing her body.

It's gone...... It's not about leaving, going to a place far away in the world. It's the world she lives in, and there will be no more people named Shen Rugu!

She didn't want to believe it, but it was the only answer that could explain all her doubts! Shen Ru gave her all the three spiritual spirits he relied on to live...... He chose to die in the joke made up by the world, so that she thought that he had just left!

In order to let her live well without him for the rest of her life, he did not hesitate to use Wen Ye to stimulate her, he said, if we meet again, we will be enemies!

She almost believed it!

"Originally, I promised him to keep this secret for him, and if you don't find out, I will continue to keep my mouth shut!" When he knew that Shen Ru was going to exchange his life for Nanzhao, he found that this worldly person could also move him, a Taoist.

Otherwise, he would never lie about it. Now that he had told everything he knew, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Yunzhou military camp has passed the lunch time early, and the camp food of today's military camp is already cold in the commander's tent!

Zhou Yangjiu couldn't wait to return to Nanzhao, and he was faintly worried in his heart, and finally decided to go and see it for himself. Let people prepare the horses, a column of heroic Wang Fuwei followed closely behind, and from a long distance, he saw a thin figure standing on the high slope, the sun above her head hidden in the clouds, and the light white dress on her body fluttered with the wind, involuntarily.

Lu Donglai can't comfort people, and he knows this kind of life and death, and any words are pale and powerless, so he doesn't know where to hide!

"You're waiting down there!" Zhou Yang ordered. Xunlong and the others stayed where they were and guarded the horses. Zhou Yang climbed the high slope, and the closer she got, the more she could see the tears on her face.

"Nan Zhao ......," he called to her softly. Nan Zhao heard it and didn't look back, his eyes kept looking deep at the rolling mountain shadows in front of him.

She said

"Brother Jiu...... No matter how far away you are, as long as you have a close heart, you will arrive one day, right? Zhou Yang looked at her like this, and the uneasiness in his heart was even worse, but he still nodded and replied

"If you have a heart, you can do anything."

"What about the man?" She finally turned around, and asked with sadness on her face that was made up for by tears

"If a man dies and has a heart, will he allow it?" The hanging stone in Zhou Yang's heart fell down, she already understood, she knew!

Lu Donglai has absconded in fear of crime, presumably the little Taoist priest has told her everything he knows!

"Brother Jiu, you answer me!" She couldn't control her tears for a long time, especially when she saw Zhou Yang, she couldn't help falling down.

That day, I heard that Shen Ru had turned her back on her and went to find Wen Ye, she was resentful and sad, but she was not as good as at this moment.

Zhou Yang whispered

"The things of this world, how much can be done with heart, only the power of birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be reversed...... "How could she not know the truth that birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be reversed?

This life has never been kind to me, so why should I admit it? She didn't understand before, what kind of desperate situation Shen Rugu said to Master Shande in Shande Temple that day, so she was so arrogant.

Now she finally understood that it was just a lamp for herself to walk down this dark path with her head held high and when she had no choice.

"Brother Jiu also lied......" Nan Zhao smiled sadly. Zhou Yang did not deny that these days, he would always remember what Shen Rugu asked him that day.

"Lord Wang, have you ever lied to your loved ones?" His answer is yes, he has lived in deceit since he was a child, and he has said countless words against his will for the sake of his relatives.

But what Shen Ru asked him to do was different from those. He could lie to those who wanted to know where he was going to die, but it was especially difficult for Nanzhao.

Knowing how much she loved Shen Rugu, but he wanted to stage a scam for her that he turned his back on and left, in order to make this scam more realistic, he watched her unable to extricate herself from Shen Rugu's abandonment.

He couldn't tell her the truth, because truth was more terrible than abandonment.

"Where is he?" She asked Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang also knew what she was asking, and when he returned to the Guogong Mansion in the afternoon, he took her over.

It was the place that was blocked by the two ancestral gods of the Sima family before, the library building. In the library building, there are thousands of ancient books, because no one has come in for a long time, they are negligent in cleaning, and they are covered with dust.

The only place leading to the innermost part was that someone had cleaned it, and judging from the traces, a heavy object had been moved from here not long ago.

When many large families build houses, they will build several dark rooms, some to hide treasures, some to hide from disasters when they are in danger, and there is such a dark room behind the bookshelf in the innermost part of the library.

This dark corpse is very old, and when the door is opened, the musty smell that has been dusty for a long time will follow you. Nan Zhao followed behind Zhou Yang, he held an oil lamp in his hand, and after entering the inside, he lit two lamps in the secret room.

The chill came from all around, and the faint light illuminated the chamber, and she could see that the dark chamber was surrounded by walls of ice, which was why it was so cold.

And there was nothing but a coffin. Nan Zhao came all the way, and her steps were hurried and big, but after she was here, the soles of her feet seemed to be rooted in the ground, and every step she took was as if her flesh and blood had been torn apart.

This coffin was twice as large as an ordinary coffin, because it was also covered with many ice cubes, the ice body was crystal clear, and the candlelight shone on the face of the corpse in the coffin through the ice shadow print, it was still the peerless handsome face in her memory, but it was the same as when she first saw it in the cave, it became a corpse...... She walked over and stood by the coffin, and saw the same robe he was wearing when she saw him the last time.

Except for a few pleats, the top layer is not stained. And on his face, there is no pain when he died, as if he was asleep.

She reached out and stroked the face, cold and hard, the state of the corpse in the refrigerated environment.

"There have been many times when you've fallen asleep like this, but I know you'll wake up when the morning dawns......" she said sadly

"But this time I know you'll never wake up again!" The past reappeared again and again, and she did almost nothing for Shen Ru for him.

But he did it, changed his life for her, and that sentence, always together, life and death depend on each other...... Zhou Yang walked over, took out a letter from his sleeve, and handed it to her.

"After he came to me that day to explain the aftermath, he also left this letter, he actually knew that one day you would find the truth, so let me hand over this letter to you at that time, Brother Jiu thought that this letter would be given to you later...... "Nan Zhao took it and opened it to look at it carefully.

"Xiao Zhao, when you read this letter, your husband is no longer alive. If this is the early death, because of your three spirit flower spirit to survive in the world for several years, the death has long been relieved, this state of mind, you should understand very well, my only regret, is that this life can not continue to accompany you further, after my death, you have died of the catastrophe, there are five souls, the remaining seven spirits, ghosts and immortals have not argued, the Taoist gods have one, the remaining five grains are scattered elsewhere, you need to find them all, in order to get the spirit complete. The last sentence of the letter was:

"Xiao Zhao, if there is an afterlife, I would like to be the same for you." After Nan Zhao finished reading the letter, she was sad to lie on his corpse and wept bitterly, if it weren't for her spirit flower body, she would have fainted a long time ago.

Zhou Yang understood the pain of losing his beloved, so he didn't disturb her and waited outside the secret room alone. Nan Zhao stayed in the secret room for three days without eating or drinking, and during these three days, she slept in Shen Rugu's coffin, holding his corpse, as if every time before, after he didn't breathe, she confirmed over and over again that he would never wake up again...... Zhou Yang wanted to go in several times, but the door of the secret room couldn't be opened, and after three days, he knew that even if she didn't look for a short time, she was about to see the king of Hades, so he called Xunlong a few times to come over, ready to open the door of the secret room from the outside.

Lu Donglai rushed over when he heard the news, and saw several people gathered outside the secret room, holding big axes and preparing to split the door.

He walked over and persuaded

"Don't waste your energy!" Zhou Yang saw that this little Taoist priest was back, as if he was relieved, he sent people to ask Lu Dong to come back several times in the first three days, and this guy had all kinds of excuses.

"You came back just in time, this door was closed by Nan Zhao with the power of the spirit flower inside, behind the bookshelf is the stone door, I'm afraid the axe can't be opened, you quickly think of some way to break the power of the spirit flower!" Lu Donglai said

"She still has the strength to attract the power of the Spirit Flower, so it proves that she can't die, don't worry!" If he hadn't gotten used to it, Zhou Yang would definitely be angry and blast this little Taoist priest out, he asked coldly

"And what are you doing here now?"

"Poor Dao is afraid that you will hurt your mind if you worry too much, so I came back to tell you that she will come out in the evening!"

"Really?" Zhou Yang was a little unconvinced, but Lu Donglai was not an ordinary person, and what he said should be realized.

So they ordered Xunlong and the others to retreat, and when they waited outside until evening, they saw that the sun was setting outside, and it was immediately dark, and the door of the secret room was still not open.

Xunlong was half lying on a desk, suddenly jumped up, picked up the big axe next to him, and said

"I knew that the little Taoist priest was talking nonsense, saying that people would come out in the evening! Bah! Master, let me knock on the door! As soon as the voice fell, the door to the secret room opened!

Nan Zhao, who hadn't eaten or drunk for a few days, didn't look weak, but he hadn't seen the sun for a few days, his body was decadent, and his face was bleak.

Her hair was in a bun on her head, and her unkempt hair was draped over her shoulders, making her look extremely thin. Zhou Yang carefully looked at the spiritual flower in her palm, and saw that the red light was eye-catching, so he put a little snack.

"Nan Zhao ......," he said apologetically, as he walked over a few steps

"Brother Jiu shouldn't have lied to you, but Brother Jiu and Shen Gongzi have a promise that can't be broken, Brother Jiu apologizes, you forgive Brother Jiu, don't ......"

"Brother Jiu...... I'm hungry......" She looked up at him, and there was no blame in those eyes. In fact, after she knew the truth, she didn't blame them for lying to her, because these were all instructed by Shen Ru, whether it was Lu Donglai or her ninth brother, they were all hidden from her for her good.

How could she blame them without knowing what to blame? On the contrary, let them worry about themselves, and she will not be able to do so.

But for these three days, she just wanted to stay with Shen Rugu and didn't want to say anything. As soon as Zhou Yang heard her cry out for hunger, he immediately said with a smile

"If you're hungry, Brother Jiu will immediately call the kitchen to cook something for you! Let's go back first! "Back in the courtyard where Nan Zhao originally lived with Shen Ru, the kitchen was very fast, almost just arrived, and the food was delivered, rice porridge, soup stock, green vegetables and tender tofu were all good food.

Nan Zhao gulped down like a prisoner who had just been released from his cell.

"Eat slowly, don't choke!" Zhou Yang served her porridge on the side, but she was comforted in her heart, because she could take the initiative to eat, so she wanted to open it!

Zhou Yuan also came to see her, and said a lot to her in the house, in fact, she was also after Nan Zhao locked herself in the secret room, and only then did she know that Shen Ru was dead, so what she said was nothing more than persuading Nan Zhao to live well, and her life was Shen Gongzi's life!

Nan Zhao heard it, agreed, and drank five bowls of porridge in one go, if it wasn't for her ninth brother who stopped her from drinking, she should still be able to drink.

Just like Zhou Yuan said, her life is the same as before, and if she can't breathe the air of this world in the future, she can't eat a mouthful of food in the world, so she has to eat more for him...... It was late at night, Zhou Yuan went back, Zhou Yang was still there, and he saw that Nan Zhao had calmed down, so he opened his mouth to tell her

"Brother Jiu used the ice of the Guogong Mansion to build a wall in the secret room, in order to preserve the corpse of the old man in good condition, and send him back to his hometown in Qingzhou in the future, so that he can explain to the Shen family and put it into the ground for ......peace," Nan Zhao heard this, looked up at him, and told him softly

"Brother Jiu, I don't plan to send you back to Qingzhou." Zhou Yang frowned slightly. She said with a faint smile on her face

"Back then, others could resurrect him with the spirit of three spirit flowers, and so could I!" She finished firmly, and her eyes flashed with the brilliance of the past.

Zhou Yang only asked her

"The spirit has entered your body, and it cannot be taken out unless you die." She replied

"In addition to the spirit spirit on my body, there are seven other spirit spirits, as long as I find three of them, it's fine!" She said confidently

"So Brother Jiu, I still need you to help me continue to preserve the same corpse until the day he is resurrected!" Zhou Yang nodded and asked her again

"Where are you going to find the rest of the spirits?"

"The ghost immortal did not argue with Ouyang Yi's body, it was only by constantly sucking the living qi that it could suppress its powerful ghost qi, if it wanted to find it, it didn't come, and then there was a Dao God......" Speaking of the Dao God, her face changed, and she put away all her smiles and told him

"Brother Jiu, the psychic prison tablet, I have remembered everything, he is my master, and in the first half of my life, he was my benefactor, even if he is a Maoshan Taoist in the truth, but he was also the high Taoist Qingyunzi of Qingyun Temple, but ...... Qingyunzi is not a Taoist god, in my heart, my master is still my master, but he was already murdered by the Taoist god on that icy and snowy winter day! ”

"My first death, his existence, was to kill me. And my current life is given as before, and it has nothing to do with the benefactor in the first half of my life! So even if he sees him again in the future, the friendship between master and apprentice is over.

For the sake of Shen Ru, she must get the spirit! After Zhou Yang listened to her, he told her

"Nan Zhao, no matter what you do, Brother Jiu will support you." Coming out of her quarters, Zhou Yang walked slowly through the archway, paused in his steps, and said to the roof next to her

"Why don't you go in and meet you when you're here?" Lu Donglai held a piece of grass in his mouth, jumped down lightly, and when he landed, except for the sound of clothes pouring into the wind, he could hardly hear the sound of his feet falling.

"The moonlight is sultry, and the poor road is rewarded for a while!" Zhou Yang replied casually

"Then the moonlight should be quite sultry every night, right?" Lu Donglai slandered in his heart that you are nosy, where do you like to lie down, what happened to the roof?

Can't lie on the roof? As if hearing him scolding himself in his heart, Zhou Yang smiled and said lightly

"The Taoist chief always said that the love between men and women in this world is not worth mentioning, but in fact, in this world, it is not only the love between men and women, but also the friendship of other people."

"Don't talk about the prince, this worldly friendship, poor road can't afford to lose weight!" Zhou Yang went back to business with him

"As the Taoist said, Nan Zhao decided to find the spirit to resurrect Shen Rugu." Lu Donglai hugged his hands in front of him, spit out the grass in his mouth and said

"Before I saw Shen Rugu, Poor Dao had never heard of the method that the spirit can resurrect people, and the master who resurrected Shen Rugu back then is still a mystery, not to mention, why did the three spirits give Shen Rugu for nothing, even if he finds this person and more than three spirits-" He paused and informed

"Before Shen Rugu made a choice, she also thought that after Nan Zhao knew about his death, she would do everything she could to resurrect him, but even if she did this difficult thing, she would not be able to come back if she wanted it......"

"Moreover, whether she succeeds or not, it is a trip against the sky, Poor Dao will never help her, and the prince should also persuade her to let go of her obsession!" Zhou Yang didn't answer, so he continued

"Shen Ru is a person who has reached the end of her life, and she has been persistently entangled again and again, when will she be able to let go and become a real spirit girl? The celestial phenomena are different, the North Star Palace is disordered, many stargazers call it a demon star, who is the demon star referred to, the prince should know! ”

"Lu Donglai, in your eyes, is she also a demon star?" Zhou Yang asked.

"The power of the North Star Palace is indeed from the Lord of the Spirit Flower of Reincarnation, but whether she is a demon star or not depends on whether the power she holds is evil or good, if she does evil, she is a demon star, and the poor Dao has the responsibility of subduing demons and eliminating demons, and she will definitely live and die with her!" Lu Donglai held his head high to show his attitude, and then added

What is "But if she does good, the poor way is ...... with her"? Zhou Yang squinted at him, but wanted to hear the opinions of this high path of birth who had cut off the seven emotions and six desires.

He swallowed his saliva and thought for a moment

"Yes...... Fellow Daoists! Nan Zhao was determined to find the spirit of Linghua, and he didn't want to delay for a day, and the next day, he came to Lu Dong and asked him to make a divination and find the whereabouts of the undisputed.

Lu Donglai said the day before yesterday that he would not help her do things against the sky, but when he thought of this unjustifiable evil, if it weren't for the fact that the door of life and death needed him to guard here, he would have gone to find this ghost thing a long time ago!

However, divination and finding objects and finding people is easy for him, the high path of Nanxian Mountain, and his hexagram is more accurate than all the high ways of the Eight Great Views, but he is looking for ghosts and immortals...... He reminded coldly

"That undisputed body has the spirit of the spirit flower, this power is extraordinary, can hide her traces in the world, hexagram can be divined, but not allowed, do you want divination?"

"That's it!" Nan Zhao's face changed, and he turned around and prepared to leave the barracks! Zhou Yuan, who came with her, heard that she was going to find a ghost fairy, and was very excited to come over, wearing a heroic riding costume today, and wanted to show off her skills, when she heard Lu Dong say this, she came over and grimaced at him, and said

"Little Taoist, what's the use of you?"

"You!" It's not the first time that Lu Donglai has been underestimated, but this time he is inexplicably angry! Not long after, as the two of them got into the carriage to return to the city, he got in, which immediately made the small carriage even more crowded.

"Little Taoist! What are you doing? Zhou Yuan compared a fist in front of him, thinking that he was here to take revenge.

The little Taoist priest was not so hungry, he leisurely went to the carriage and said

"Poor Dao is idle today, be merciful and help you once!" The only thing Nan Zhao counted on him was divination, and now divination is not good, and there is nothing to look forward to, so there is no response.

Lu Donglai was waiting for her to ask how he could help, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't see her speak, and he didn't go out with a lot of energy, and finally couldn't help it, and said it himself

"Although extraordinary power can be hidden in the world, it cannot escape the mouth of the world!" Zhou Yuan said dumbfoundedly

"Princess Ben doesn't understand!"

"It's not for you to understand!" Lu Donglai glanced at her with disgust, and then asked Nan Zhao

"You understand, right?" Nan Zhao blinked and asked

"What trick does that Taoist chief have to borrow the world's mouth and ears to find the whereabouts of a ghost immortal?" Soon after, the west of the city Taihe teahouse.

Facing a full hall of booksellers, Zhou Yuan looked disdainful at Lu Dong

"This princess is curious, how to use the world's mouth to find the whereabouts of ghosts and immortals, and the result is to find a storyteller who talks nonsense?" Lu Donglai ignored her, stepped in with the look of a mortal who is waiting for you, found a table and sat down, and shouted

"Little Er, come two plates of peanuts and a pot of good tea!" Nan Zhao also looked at ease when he came, followed in, and was just about to sit down, when a girl came over and told her politely

"This girl's surname is Nan?"

"Yes, you are?" Nan Zhao didn't remember seeing this person. The girl replied with a smile

"My master is in the private room upstairs, and I want to invite Miss Nan to go up and sit down." Zhou Yuan leaned over and asked with a look of Lao Tzu is a princess

"Who is the master of your house?" The other party still replied with a smile

"The girl will know if she goes up with me!" Cat flutter Chinese
