Chapter 35: Resentment Turns into Wind
"Alas~", he shook his head and sighed, he was out of control for a while, and he actually had some resentment towards Qing Xu, and he couldn't help but blame himself in his heart.
After three years in the rift, he is no longer the carefree, somewhat introverted but sunny teenager he used to be. Three years of loneliness and the struggle to survive made his mind a little suspicious and extreme, if he had been in the past, he would definitely not easily doubt and resent others, let alone think about Qingxu like this.
When he was trapped in the rift valley, he often looked up alone, thinking alone, "When I escape from here, will I still be me? Will Qing Xu still be the generous and beautiful Qing Xu in my memory? Is the soul still the soul of the past?"
What he thinks and fears about may really happen, and in three years, it may change everything.
"Why does the ancient dryad say that it is a grievance after the wind blows?" Thinking of the abrupt wind before, he was a little puzzled and looked up at the ancient dryad.
The ancient tree demon sensed the confusion in his eyes, and seemed to know what he wanted to ask, so he took the initiative to speak, "Wind, rain, thunder and lightning do not enter the demon night forest, so the previous wind is not the wind in the real sense. In addition, resentment cannot leave the Demon Night Forest, and in order to dissipate resentment and maintain balance, this forest will turn resentment into wind when it senses it. ”
"In this way, the Demon Night Forest seems to be isolated from the normal world, and many things are really weird" Xiao Li was a little helpless, and asked instead, "Did the previous resentment come from ......"
"It seems to be nearby, but there is no trace of it. However, the resentment of living creatures does not leave the body, so it has nothing to do with you. ”
"It has nothing to do with me?" Xiao Li frowned slightly, although he vaguely felt that this involved some secrets of the Demon Night Forest, but he didn't plan to delve into it further.
First, because he couldn't know the source of his resentment for the time being, and secondly, because the strange wind before had little to do with what he wanted to know the most, and what he wanted to know about Qingxu.
It's just that the wind before was indeed a little weird, why did it rise when he thought of it. Could it be that some monster happened to die? The death of a monster may be normal in the Demon Night Forest. Now, that's the only way to explain it.
It didn't take long for Xiao Li to open his mouth and ask again, "I don't know who the Demon Sect Master mentioned earlier is?" After the mood fluctuations calmed down, he was even more eager to know the information about Qing Xu, and he was already able to determine that Qing Xu was in the Demon Night Forest three years ago. What I want to know most now is the reason why Qing Xu left that sentence, and Qing Xu's current situation......
While waiting for the ancient dryad to answer, he waved his hand at Babbling, and with a grin, jumped onto his shoulder.
"It must be extraordinary for this ancient dryad to be called an adult. He handed over the cloth strip for Qing Xu, and there must be something hidden. If you can get his message, it is very likely that you will restore what happened to Qing Xu three years ago. ”
The Ancient Tree Demon frowned slightly, and after a moment, he replied, "I can't tell you the identity of that Demon Sect Master, because he doesn't like others to talk about him. ”
"Senior, the person who wrote this piece of cloth means a lot to me, and I ask my seniors to ......"
He wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the ancient dryad shaking his head. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "So, can you tell me where he is in the Demon Night Forest?" Even if you can't talk about his identity, maybe you can tell him where he is, so you can go and find him.
"What's the use of knowing that? Three years should have diluted everything. ”
"Fade?"
"Alas, young man, if you want to drive some, there are some things that you can't force to ask for, and there is still a long way to go......"
The ancient tree demon suddenly persuaded like this, which made Xiao Li confused, "What do you mean by what the predecessor said, please give me some advice?"
"Actually, this strip of cloth should have been handed to you three years ago. ”
"What?" Lu Li, who was waiting for the ancient dryad's answer, couldn't help but shout in shock, he thought that this piece of cloth was forgotten by the ancient dryad to give it to him, but now it seems that it was done on purpose, why did the ancient dryad keep detaining this strip of cloth?
"Three years ago, when the Demon Sect Master handed me this strip of cloth, he told me that this strip of cloth was written by a girl. He was entrusted by the girl to hand over the strip of cloth to you at that time, but he was in a hurry to leave, and he didn't want to deal with the old demon in the rift, so he told me to deal with it......"
After listening to the words of the ancient tree demon, he had many doubts, but he did not interrupt immediately, but continued to listen to him.
Before leaving, however, he stopped abruptly and said, 'Although he has been entrusted with the task of finally being a worker, there is no need to do that useless thing.' Everything is done by people'. What he meant in the end was that if you can't get out of the rift, even if you are given this strip of cloth, it will be of little use, it will only add to your troubles. That's why I'm finally sure that when you meet you in the forest after you escape the Rift, I'll give you this strip of cloth. ”
"Because it's been a long time since I didn't notice you, I thought you were dead under the rift, so I removed this part of my memory about the strip of cloth, leaving only some clues as a guide, and if you hadn't mentioned it three years ago, I'm afraid I wouldn't have remembered it. ”
After hearing this, he couldn't help frowning secretly, "Even if this strip of cloth is handed over to me late, it doesn't seem to have any effect now, because I still escaped from the rift valley after all, so why would the ancient dryad persuade me to look away, is it just for me to see the strip of cloth three years late? Listening to his previous tone, it must not be so simple, he must still be hiding something." ”
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, the ancient tree demon continued, "Actually, there is another line of words on this piece of cloth, but it was hidden by the Demon Sect Master......"
"Also, there is another line of words?" was suddenly stunned, speechless for a while.
"Alas~ Originally, these things should not be told to you to know, but you have gone through hardships and dangers, and you are very affectionate, and I can't bear to deceive you. The ancient tree demon sighed heavily, and then said slowly, "I wanted to live and die, but I couldn't disobey the will of heaven!"
His eyes widened suddenly, and he asked calmly, "For, why do you want to hide?"
"Huh" The ancient tree demon exhaled heavily, and slowly replied, "It's useless to talk too much, it will add to your sorrow."
"I wanted to live and die, but I couldn't disobey the will of God......"
When he heard this, the first thought that rushed into his mind was, "Qing Xu, something happened." Coupled with the previous sentence "stand alone, live", the meaning is already obvious, a few simple words, expressing the sadness of not being able to stay together and the hope that let him persevere. This strip of cloth is like a suicide note, a suicide note that has been delayed for three years!
The sentence "live" made Xiao Li faintly uneasy, and now when he heard another sentence, he seemed to be unable to tolerate the slightest luck in his heart, and it seemed that he had determined that there would be no day when he would meet Qingxu in the future.
And now it can also explain why the ancient tree demon persuaded him to look away with such a pitying tone before, and why the demon sect lord was reluctant to hand over this cloth strip to him directly at that time, because they saw the meaning of the words written on the cloth strip and understood that it might deal a blow to the cloth. But what they don't know is that after they know the complete word, it is not as simple as worrying about it!
In this world, there are a few people who know what Qing Xu has done for him, and who can understand what Qing Xu means to him.
If he had received the complete strip of cloth three years ago, he would have collapsed all his thoughts in an instant, and he would have died depressed and depressed.
Although he understood that the two demons concealed this in order not to make him depressed, although the intention was for his good, however, he still had some resentment in his heart. He resented the two demons for hindering him from knowing the news of Qing Xu, maybe he might lose his faith, but he wanted to know more about Qing Xu's news, whether it was good or bad, it was something he should know in time. Perhaps, this is also why, Qing Xu will write down the complete words, because people who love each other should not have something to hide.
Standing alone, he carefully put the strips of cloth close to his body, and he could no longer hear the noisy sound of balls and babbling in his ears. The expression seemed to be back to the soul, among the green trees, the mist and wet mountain forests, on the somewhat shaky suspension bridge, facing the girl who smiled faintly, revealing a pair of small dimples, I could only hear that she said, "Stand, let's make a game, right?"
He raised his right hand in a daze, slapped it forward, and on the opposite side of the empty side, but no person who had missed him for a long time stretched out his palm in response, maybe there will never be a pair of slender but eternally warm hands in the future, and he will be reconciled. From now on, his outstretched hand will always be alone.......
Thinking of this, he couldn't hold back any longer, clenched his fists suddenly, and slammed them to the ground one by one.
"Click, click"
The crystal tears were no longer hidden, and fell straight to the back of his hand.
Originally, he rarely lost his temper in front of others, and he didn't want to show himself in front of outsiders, but at this time, under the sadness of his heart, he had no scruples.
"Since it is difficult to disobey the will of heaven, why bother yourself, and why force ......," the ancient tree demon shook the dense canopy and said helplessly.
