Chapter 12: The End of the Dream
What an unexpected answer.
Don't you want to save Lingyue... Don't you want to be invincible?
Why would you, who are weak and humble, give up this deal, which may be a god?
Why?
The voice in his head seemed puzzled and kept asking.
Wan Xiu stopped, took a deep breath, and then spit out heavily, smiling: "Of course I hope to save Lingyue, and the two will not be separated." Of course, I want to have unparalleled power to destroy all enemies. β
"I've struggled, I've been lost. ... Unexpectedly, it was Chiyou who reminded me. β
"The reason why I'm still alive is because Yue'er gave me her life. If you agree to Chiyou's conditions and become a selfish executioner, this must be.... It's not what Yue'er wants to see. β
"Yue'er said... Stay away from hatred and live well. β
"I listen to Yue'er..."
This is Wan Xiuyi's answer, just as he said to Cang Heng in the sea of knowledge space.
No one can deprive others of their lives because of their own selfish desires, because of their own despair.
At this point, there was a deep silence in my mind, and after a long time, the voice came again: "Sure enough. You are you after all, maybe your choice is right, maybe it is really me who has lived up to Yue'er's hard work. β
"Now.... It's not my memory anymore, it's your story. β
"Just let me. . . See the end. β
After that, there was no more sound.
Leaving only a lonely back, in the moonlight, slowly moving forward.
.........................................................................
Flowers are weaving, and foolish butterflies are drunk with ancient sorrow.
Swing the sake in the lamp, cover the hands and rest with the dust.
ββNan Kongchen "Thinking of the Moon I"
The last drop of wine in the cup, remaining in the mouth of the cup, did not fall into the soil, it reflected the face of "Cangheng" with a touch of moonlight, still young and handsome.
Five years have passed since Lingyue left, and every today, Wan Xiuyi will drink in the courtyard, drink a glass and pour a glass for a whole day, and if he is drunk, he will lie down in the flowers in the courtyard and sleep quietly.
Only today will he drink so much wine, and he would not dare to do it on weekdays.
The flowers in the yard were planted later, Lingyue likes flowers, but she has never planted them, because Cang Heng has to practice swords every day, and the yard is small and tied. Now, he no longer practices swords, so he plants flowers in the yard, and he likes it a little.
Lingyue told him, he basically did it, but he didn't move to the city to live.
Although it is cold to live alone, it is also very good, sometimes I miss Yue'er, I miss it to the heartbreak, I miss it so much that I can't sleep, so I get up and cry loudly, or sing a ballad, it will not disturb others, it's good.
Wan Xiu put down the wine glass and touched his chin full of stubble, he was drunk just right at the moment, especially suitable for a nap, the sky was the bed, and he slept until tomorrow.
It's just that an uninvited little guest interrupted Wan Xiuyi's action of preparing to lie down.
A snow-white rabbit suddenly jumped in from outside the courtyard wall, and a second before touching the ground, a few neat laps of somersaults, unloaded the impact, and landed in front of Wan Xiuyi's eyes in a handsome posture of kneeling on one knee, and the scarlet rabbit eyes looked at Wan Xiuyi quietly with disdain and contempt.
"Uh... This strange rabbit... As if you despise me?" Wan Xiu, who was drunk and hazy, scratched his head and looked surprised, could it be that his alcohol consumption was already so bad?
"Alright, okay, this is it, let me out. A female voice sounded, as if she had heard it somewhere, but Wan Xiu couldn't remember it.
The snow-white rabbit nodded, took out a blood-colored spar from the small bag behind his back and put it on the ground, turned around, slapped his hairy ass at Wan Xiuyi, and jumped out of the wall with contempt in his eyes.
"Uhhh What did you do to that rabbit, Chiyou..."Seeing the blood-colored crystal, Wan Xiu immediately thought of who the owner of the voice was.
"You.. Still.. Good.. Meaning.. Think.. Say!You bastard!!" With the sound of gnashing teeth, the blood crystal on the ground instantly suspended into the air, and a cloud of blood mist condensed into a human form, and the strange and beautiful array spirit, Chi You, appeared!
"Yo... It's been a long time, but it's been okay lately. Ignoring the anger in Chi You's tone, Wan Xiu waved his hand and said hello.
"Don't be close!ahh...hh I've finally found you!I'm going to kill you!" I saw the red blood hair slowly floating, and the killing intent in his eyes was bursting, and he didn't seem to be joking.
Belch.... With a wine burp, Wan Xiu sat cross-legged on the ground, stretched out his hand and patted the ground next to him, and said happily to Chiyou: "How tired it is to stand and talk, sit down and sit down." Tell me why you killed me, and where have you been in the past few years, and you can't find it. β
Chi Yu trembled all over, pointed to Wan Xiu and was speechless for half a day, and then ..... Wow cried out.
"Woo woo woo..... You bastard... If you don't agree, you don't agree! Direct.. What is the situation if you go alone!.Do you know how long I have been waiting for you... You idiot!Bastard!I almost got ........ by those monkeys Throw it into the ape dung!Woo wow wow wow ......." The more he spoke, the more sad he became, and his bare hands kept wiping his tears, but he couldn't stop it.
Wan Xiuyi laughed a few times in embarrassment, and seeing that Chiyou's crying showed no signs of stopping, he hurriedly explained: "That... Didn't you destroy the world with a wave of your hand and bring the dead back to life with a snap of your fingers... I thought...."
"Idiot.. If I had always had that kind of strength, and I bothered to trade with you, I would have done it all by myself.... Those two tricks... I've exhausted all the spiritual power I've accumulated..."Chiyu sobbed and slowly stopped crying, but the ruby eyes still glistened with tears, which was distressing.
"Uhhh Without power, then how did you find here? Suddenly thinking of the strange rabbit, Wan Xiuyi was very curious.
"Hmph. Fortunately, Miss Ben is gifted and beautiful, and successfully persuaded a rabbit spirit to send me here, although it took a long time, but I still came back!"
"Uhhh I'm curious, though, how did you convince that rabbit spirit. But it's a long way off... It's impossible to think about it. "Back then, that place, thousands of miles away from here, a stone that had lost its ability and a rabbit demon who had not yet transformed into a shape, this was an alternative version of the Western Heavens!
"Hmph. As long as I remember the breath, even if it is thousands of miles away, I can accurately locate it. Let alone.... I only remembered the breath of you and Lingyue, and without other breath interference, I rushed all the way over. Awesome~?" I feel that my little nose is going to be tilted to the sky, and it is really a child, so it's so foolish.
"Uh... Terrible. But.... I only remember the breath of me and Yue'er, why is this?"Girl... There are too many slots in your words... What is the slot? Wan Xiu was confused one by one.
"Because after I was born, I was the only one with the two of you, so I didn't remember the breath of others. β
"Birth?"
"Hmm... Not long after you got the Blood Spirit Crystal back, it became self-conscious, and that was me. β
"Until then, those calls...?"
"It should be me... I'm not impressed, though. β
"You said you had just been born.... But you seem to know a lot of secrets from ancient times..."
"That's a memory I've had since I was born... And I only know about the circle. β
"Haven't you been in your storage bag for decades since?"
"That's right. It's dark and boring, but I can see things near the storage bag, and I can see you and Lingyue. β
β.....................β
A conversation made Wan Xiuyi fall into a deep silence, he could hear the loneliness and loneliness in Chiyou's words, it turned out that everything was not what he thought, she was not an ancient demon who killed like hemp, just a child who had no one to speak to, no one to accompany her.
"Red ......" Wan Xiuyi's voice became gentle, and his eyes became sober.
"What...?" she closed her eyes and turned her face to the side, indicating that she hadn't lost her breath.
"I'm sorry.. I shouldn't have left you alone, I shouldn't have left alone.... I've been looking for it all the way, and I've worked hard for you. β
Chiyou's body trembled slightly, and he slowly covered his cheeks with his little hands, and a few strands of blood-red hair slightly covered his eyes. She asked cautiously, ".. Then you.. Will you leave me behind?"
"Not anymore! His firm voice fell on Chi You's heart.
"Don't... Put me again... It's in a storage bag. Chiyu said softly, she hated being in the storage bag, she wanted to talk to them.
I'll never put it in a storage bag again, I won't put it anywhere else, I'll always be with you. Wan Xiu slowly opened his hands with a gentle look in his eyes.
"Uh..... Woo wow wow wow...!" couldn't hold back any longer, Chi You cried and threw herself into Wan Xiuyi's arms, beating his chest with his little hands, venting endless grievances.
"Why did you leave me? Why did you ignore me! Why did you reject me? Why didn't you save Lingyue! I can talk to you, I can play together, but Lingyue is gone! I don't want that!woooooooooooooo
Chiyou seems to have a thousand words, crying, while talking, she loves Cang Heng and Lingyue, just like children are attached to their parents, although Cang Heng and Lingyue have not spoken to her, but she still loves, where the two don't know, sharing the laughter of the two and sharing the pain of the two.
When the spirit moon disappeared and Cang Heng was about to collapse, she desperately broke free from the storage bag and used her own methods to support Cang Heng.
Wan Xiuyi hugged Chiyou with his left hand, and gently stroked her little head with his right hand, extremely gentle: "Don't worry, in the future, I will chat with you, play with you, watch the stars with you, swing with you, and never leave you behind." β
Chiyou raised his head, his face couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, and quietly curled up in Wan Xiuyi's arms, clutching his clothes tightly and not letting go.
After a long time, Chi You spoke softly: "Cangheng.... I miss the moon. β
"Well... Me too.."
Finally recognized, finally met, the lonely little girl slept quietly, just... In her dreams, those two people would never appear at the same time again.
Under the moonlight, Wan Xiuyi and Chi You's figures stacked together, like two cats huddled together for warmth, quietly waiting for the daytime sunshine.
A whole new life has begun.
........................................................................................................
In the dark space, Wan Xiu opened his eyes and exhaled heavily: "It's really a... Long dreams. β
"yes.. Long and short. The light and shadow Cangheng appeared suddenly, and a slow sigh appeared.
"Then, what do you want to express, or what do you want to get?" Seeing Cang Heng appear, Wan Xiu looked as usual and was very calm.
Cang Heng smiled slightly, spread his hands helplessly, and said, "I'm dead, what else can I get." I just wanted to see.... When you are faced with the same situation, the same despair, what will you choose? Unexpectedly, I really saw something different. β
Wan Xiuyi stretched out his hand and plucked out his ears, bent his fingers at Cang Heng, and said lazily: "Tsk... Thanks to you, your miserable life has made my heart stand still, and now when I think about anything, I feel unusually calm. β
"That's because... After you leave the dream world, the feelings attached to you will be withdrawn, and you will only be left with some memories. Quietly, Cang Heng changed positions.
"That's good.. I didn't get anything in the province, and I became a schizophrenic madman. "Wan Xiu was unhappy for a while, and anyone who learned that his feelings were withdrawn would definitely be unhappy.
"Hey, hey.. Did you really get nothing?" Cang Heng smiled softly, his mouth pointing at something.
"Why do you ask.. In addition to memories, I really ....." Wan Xiu was confused, and the experience in the dream quickly flashed in his mind, and he suddenly stopped talking.
Seeing that Wan Xiuyi stopped talking, Cang Heng opened his arms and began his speech with an evil smile on his face.
"Knowing the inside story of the world, don't you want to live a different life?"
"Understand the powerlessness of being a mortal, don't you want the power of a cultivator to destroy the heavens and the earth?"
"Seeing so much life and death, don't you want an endless lifespan?"
"In the dream world, those many unfathomable experiences are the wealth you get. β
"Take this wealth with you, go your own way, and one day... Will appreciate me. β
After saying this, Cang Heng put his hands behind his back and looked at Wan Xiuyi quietly.
"But... Why? Aren't we enemies?" Wan Xiuyi was very puzzled, he didn't understand Cang Heng's motives from the beginning, obviously he killed Cang Heng himself, and it was obvious that the two of them were enemies who shared the sky.
Cang Heng smiled, laughed very happily, and then started from his feet, and his body slowly drifted away, like gravel blown away by the wind.
"I see in you another possibility. Perhaps, you can do what I can't do, reach a realm that I can't reach. β
"And, like you said, a selfish executioner, what face does he have to say goodbye to Lingyue. If one day you have the ability to resurrect Lingyue, please say sorry on my behalf. β
"Remember, the White Lotus Sect and the Shenggu Demon Sect have never disappeared, so be careful in everything after that. β
"That's right.. After you go out, immediately stick the Blood Wei Sword into the heart of my flesh, Vivi... Probably not dead yet. β
The words fell, and only Wan Xiuyi was left in the dark space, and he shouted loudly to Cangheng, but no one responded for a long time. Suddenly feeling a sour look in his eyes, Wan Xiu rubbed his eyes vigorously, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw in front of him.... It's a starry sky.
He returned to his own sea space.
At this point, Cang Heng disappeared completely, and in the end, he opened a door in Wan Xiu's heart, on the other side of the door.... It's a magnificent new world.
.............................................................................................
Cangheng's memory chapter is officially over, and the next chapter will begin to be the real life of Wan Xiuyi, so stay tuned.
