Chapter XI
Qingqiu Mountain Road.
Heishui walks side by side in Miaoqi, and under the moonlight, this feeling of going one step ahead has a special romance.
"The night is so beautiful, and I really like the quiet. Blackwater said as he walked with his eyes closed.
Under the cover of night, Miao Qiyue secretly glanced at Heishui, and couldn't help but say worriedly: "Be careful, watch the road." ”
After finishing speaking, Miao Qiyue suddenly felt a little stupid, how could such a strong person fall. And isn't this revealing that you are secretly looking at others?
Hearing the voice of concern, Heishui opened his eyes, although he would not be so vulnerable, but he couldn't ignore the care of others and let others worry.
"Did you have fun today?" asked Blackwater tentatively.
"I was so happy to eat so much delicious food. Miao Qiyue replied happily, but she was thinking in her heart: "The happiest thing is still now, yesterday's dream, and today it has come true on this familiar road." ”
The road you have walked with the person you like is the most beautiful road, because his scenery is in the warmest place in your mind. How can there be a Qixi Festival in the world, it's just a romantic excuse for not wanting to have a begging festival.
And the real Qixi Festival, for Miao July, is now.
"That's good" Heishui's last trace of worry was also put down, maybe it was the surrounding environment, maybe he heard the answer he wanted.
"You're so strong, you can actually win Lord Qingqiu. Miao Qiyue recalled that Heishui said heroically just now.
Heishui shook his head, in fact, he didn't like others to praise him for being strong, and he really gave too much life on the way to growth. Even if it's just an ordinary soldier, it can make Heishui sad, but he didn't have time to relieve his sad heart at the beginning, and the battle situation didn't allow it. And now I have no matter how strong my strength is, no matter how fast I go, I can't shake off the sadness that follows closely in my mind.
"I just want to go to Longmen and have fun. Heishui hid his inner sadness and said calmly.
"At first, I thought you were as weak as me, I actually heard rumors about human beings, after all, my father was human haha. The human beings I heard about have no demonic spirit and are extremely weak, but I didn't expect it to be fake. Miao Qi looked at her little hand and said in a low voice. In fact, after seeing Heishui's heroic appearance, I doubted myself a little, are I really worthy of being friends with someone who is strong?
Of course, Heishui saw the meaning of this, touched Miao Qiyue's head and said: "What has changed in your heart is only strength, not people." Friends don't talk about the right door, only about friendship. Don't think too much about it. ”
Heishui suddenly thought of something, and withdrew his hand casually, there was still that strange and comfortable feeling on his hand, and he thought to himself: Why do I like to touch my head so much, I should really want to comfort... bar.
Miao Qiyue reopened her ears because she was pressed down when she was touched just now, and the hurdle in her heart was also opened under the previous touch and words. Naughty said: "It's that I'm thinking too much"
After a while, the two of them arrived at the Qingqiu Inn.
Heishui said goodbye to Miao Qi, who was reluctant in his heart, and went to Qingqiu Mountain again.
On the way, only myself was left, and I didn't feel much at this time. And after knowing Miao July, he was a little lonely.
On the other side, at the Qingqiu Celebration Conference.
The incense of the first place was extinguished, but no one was on the stage.
The presiding fox demon didn't know what to do for a while, and finally cautiously walked up to King Xingyan Peng, wanting to ask the strongest opinion present.
After listening to the words of the host fox demon, King Xingyan said casually: "Give it to Nuwa's descendants." ”
After speaking, he turned into a blue starry sky and disappeared into Qingqiu, leaving only the starlight behind him. The purpose of participating in the conference has been achieved, and this time at least I can satisfy my distracting thoughts for a hundred years. You can accompany the stars in the polar night with peace of mind.
The host fox demon felt a little pity, because he still wanted to give the first place to King Xingyan Peng, after all, he protected everyone in the battle just now.
"I announce that this time the first is Lord Nuwa. ”
In the end, the conference ended successfully, and the demons slowly withdrew, and the words continued, thinking that the next few days would be the content of this conference.
Next to the main table, Wu Wuyue at the third table was still drinking unhurriedly on the table.
However, at this time, Wu Wuyue's expression was calm, and he actually recovered!
"Brother Wuyue, I've been waiting for a long time. How's your body?" After all the demons were almost gone, Heishui arrived and said embarrassedly.
Wu Yue put down the wine glass and said, "It's okay, it's just that it's time to go to the capital of Qingqiu, and I'm afraid I won't hear the information about Longmen if I don't go again." ”
"Haha, then it's troublesome for Brother Wuyue to lead the way!" Heishui said with a dry smile.
Wu Yue turned back into a big black dog, picked up the drunken and sleeping Dutch pig and said, "Let's go." ”
Heishui followed Wu Yue and walked through the broken main platform, towards the host platform, and after entering, he saw that it was golden and splendid, stretching for several miles, before he arrived at the capital of Qingqiu.
"It's really surprising, compared to the imperial capital, it is not inferior. Blackwater said, looking around.
Yan Wuyue said with a smile: "What's so surprising about this, what is the imperial capital, many big demon clans are wider and magnifier than him." After all, it is the accumulation of thousands or even tens of thousands of years. ”
"Yes. "Blackwater replied, the empire has been established for a long time, and it is indeed not long.
At this time, there was no other demon in the capital of Qingqiu, only the lord of Qingqiu was still sitting on the highest seat and waiting.
"I've been waiting for a long time. The Lord of Qingqiu got up and slowly walked towards Heishui and the others.
Heishui looked at the details of the main hall boredly, and didn't want to look at the Lord of Qingqiu. This woman is really violent, and she can't be understood, and she doesn't want to get into trouble anymore.
"Your Excellency's name is?" asked the Lord of Qingqiu, looking at Heishui.
Heishui, who was asked, still looked at the Lord of Qingqiu very reluctantly and said, "Heishui, I won't be angry if you ask me my name. ”
The Lord of Qingqiu lowered his body lightly and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood. ”
Heishui looked at the Lord of Qingqiu, whose temperament had changed greatly, and his head was full of question marks, but he still didn't want to think too much, so he asked directly: "I'm here to ask about Longmen." ”
"Understood. The Lord of Qingqiu smiled and continued, "It's getting late, why don't you rest here?"
Heishui subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, Wu Wuyue's body may be the most in need of rest, and the Dutch pig also fell asleep, and finally replied: "Then please help my brother equip the next room." ”
The Lord of Qingqiu shouted outside the hall, "Come on, prepare the room." ”
After saying that, a few well-trained fox demons came in and waited on the side.
Heishui said to Wu Wuyue, "Brother Wuyue, why don't you go and rest first?"
In fact, because of her tired body at this time, she wanted to rest very much, but she still said, "It's not bad for a while." ”
After hearing this, Heishui continued to ask the Lord of Qingqiu, "Where is the Dragon Gate, and how should I get there?"
The Lord of Qingqiu said: "Three days later, come to the capital to gather, and you will prepare necessities for everyone and go to the Longmen together." ”
"Oh, that's fine. Brother Wuyue, let's go rest. Blackwater said, not wanting to stay too long.
After hearing the matter, Wu Wuyue followed the fox maid who had been waiting for a long time to the guest room.
"Brother Blackwater, rest early, too!"
Heishui looked at the distant Wu Wuyue, and also walked away, but he didn't plan to go to the guest room in Qingqiu Mountain, but planned to go back to the inn.
Heishui, who had walked for a while, was not so happy at this time, and when he walked to the road down the hill of Qingqiu, he finally couldn't help but turn around and say to the figure who followed all the way. "What's wrong?"
The figure slowly got closer, and the beautiful face could finally be seen more clearly in the moonlight.
"I said there was a big misunderstanding between us, do you believe it?" said the Lord of Qingqiu.
Heishui said helplessly: "Didn't I say it before, now that you know, there should be no problem between us." ”
The Lord of Qingqiu ran to Heishui in a few steps, and said with joy on his face, "Then can we chat?"
"No, I'm in a hurry to go back. Heishui waved his hand and continued to walk towards the mountain, leaving the lord of the green hill lonely in place.
After the black hand took a few steps, a voice came from behind him: "Then next time, I really want to talk to you." ”
"Alas" Heishui shook his head and slapped his left cheek helplessly. turned around and said, "Forget it, you can say something today." ”
After hearing this, the disappointed Lord of Qingqiu, who was rejected and disappointed, caught up with Heishui and walked slowly behind him. A little excited, he said: "In a thousand years, you are the first person to defeat me. ”
The Lord of Qingqiu looked at Heishui and did not respond, and continued: "I don't know if you feel it, that fox fire. ”
Heishui thought back to the fox fire he was holding and said, "It doesn't feel like yours?"
"You saw it!" said the Lord of the Green Hill, and then fell into memory. "That's my sister's, it's something that allows me to disguise myself as a nine-tailed demon fox. ”
Heishui looked back at the Lord of Qingqiu, who was fantasizing with a smile written on his face, and said, "How do I feel like I'm listening to a troublesome thing?"
Caught in a memory, the Lord of Qingqiu continued, "For thousands of years, since my sister is gone, it's really... Tired. I wanted to find someone to talk to, but I couldn't find it. Only at the annual celebration meeting, fighting with the violent woman of Nuwa's descendants can relieve a trace of tired soul. ”
"Why don't you look for that violence... What about Nuwa's descendants?" Heishui interrupted, and then complained in his heart, aren't you also quite violent.
"Well, although she occasionally chats a few words, she just wants to beat me every time, and she doesn't want to talk to me too much. And she's not as strong as me. The Lord of Qingqiu said helplessly, he still hoped to find someone stronger than himself to communicate. For this reason, he once wanted to compete with the Star Eye Peng King many times, but the Star Eye Peng King refused every time. Once wanted to compete with him for second, Xingyan Peng Wang actually stepped down directly.
"Isn't it possible that I seem to be very good at talking?" said Blackwater, but then he thought about it, and he seemed to be really good at listening. Then he said, "Forget it, you go on." ”
The Lord of Qingqiu smiled like jasmine and said, "The first time I saw you was on the street, I felt the difference between you at that time. At first, I thought you were a Terran who came to cause trouble, but then you saw the forbidden land and didn't enter it, so I knew you didn't have any bad intentions. But I was so excited that I couldn't believe that I might have met someone very powerful. Then the General Assembly finally had a chance to fight you. ”
After speaking, he paused and continued: "When you dodged my soul chasing ball, you said: Interesting. At that time, I was devastated and did get a little angry. ”
Heishui thought about the situation at that time and said, "Is that a vitality bomb? What I said is interesting is that it can disappear even after being hit, it feels interesting." ”
The Lord of Qingqiu, who understood the true reason of the matter, felt a little embarrassed and blushed, and the misunderstanding between the two seemed to be his own mistake. "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that. Later, when the soul chasing white fox couldn't catch up, I was even more angry, and I was angry and detonated it directly. As a result, you actually dodged it, and I couldn't avoid that kind of distance myself. Later, after you easily injured me, you actually looked down on me and asked me to go down, and the anger that suddenly surged up made me a little unable to control myself. ”
After speaking, the Lord of Qingqiu looked at Heishui seriously, wondering if he had misunderstood again.
"I said I just cared about you and believed. "Blackwater was completely speechless, why did he think so much.
"I believe it, of course I believe it, but I was so angry at the time that I didn't restrain the emotions in the back, and it was even more difficult to restrain when you caught the fox fire that my sister gave me. Finally, there was that series of operations, but luckily you woke me up. I'm sorry. The Lord of Qingqiu said with some embarrassment.
Heishui sighed: "That's why I often say, people, or demons, don't think too much." ”
"Will you go this way?" said the Lord of the Green Hill as if pleading.
Heishui looked, this familiar direction, isn't it the place where I went with Miao Qiyue last time.
Don't get an inch, I wanted to refuse, but when I saw the very pleading face, I finally relented and said, "Okay." ”
The Lord of Qingqiu happily walked in front and continued: "Thank you, I haven't been so happy for a long time, and the loneliness of thousands of years of no one is really overwhelming me. ”
I didn't expect that the lord of Qingqiu, who felt cold, still had such a side, lonely and strong, but it was really uncomfortable.
"Where's your sister?"
Blackwater asked casually, but then regretted it, always feeling like he was asking a very troublesome matter.
"My sister, my sister is a real nine-tailed demon fox~" The Lord of Qingqiu said with adoration on his face.
Heishui wanted to find a place under the stairs and said, "It's very secret, so it doesn't need to be said." ”
The Lord of Qingqiu shook his head, looked back at Heishui, walked backwards, and said playfully: "It's okay, now you are my closest person except for my sister." ”
Blackwater was speechless, this was too casual.
But what Heishui doesn't know is that demons are different from humans, and demons' intuition is very accurate. And there is also a mysterious force in Blackwater that attracts things related to it.
The Lord of Qingqiu continued: "In fact, in my life, there was only one sister, like a friend. I'm really happy to meet you. ”
"It's a secret between me and my sister. Thousands of years ago, my sister told me that she was in love with a man, and soon after she gave birth to her child, my niece. The Lord of Qingqiu recalled, and then suddenly asked, "Do you know what love means?"
"Well, I don't know much, and it's hard to express it. "Blackwater was suddenly troubled.
The Lord of Qingqiu didn't care, and continued: "Later, I didn't expect that my niece was actually born with nine tails, and she is also a nine-tailed demon fox!"
Heishui felt that this was not a matter of course, and said strangely: "Isn't it normal for a nine-tailed demon fox to give birth to a nine-tailed demon fox?"
The Lord of Qingqiu waved his hand and said: "No, in fact, to be precise, we are all just the ancient white fox clan, but there will be mutants in the clan, three-tailed or six-tailed, or even nine-tailed demon fox! ”
"I see. Heishui nodded and said, complaining inwardly, I still have a gacha card for giving birth to a child.
"It doesn't matter if anything else, but the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox has limitations! The Nine-Tailed Demon Fox is naturally strong, but it needs the dragon vein to provide a strong ability for its survival. That's why the nine-tailed demon fox is restricted, and there is only one!"
Speaking of the dragon vein, the Lord of Qingqiu glanced at Heishui with deep meaning, but Heishui did not react to this.
"Isn't that?" said Heishui suddenly realized, isn't there a conflict in saying this?
"That's right! My sister's child is destined not to survive, but my sister didn't give up, she thought of a way, she crossed half her life and demon power to her child, and then froze her child with a thousand years of cold ice! Calming down, she continued: "My sister begged me to help her, because Qingqiu couldn't live without the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. Although I didn't understand it, I finally agreed to him and pretended to be a nine-tailed demon fox for 5,000 years. ”
Heishui couldn't forget it for a long time after listening to it, this sadness from fate was too innocent and cruel. I don't know what to say for a while.
The Lord of Qingqiu looked at the silent black water and asked, "You also think my sister is stupid, right?"
Heishui shook his head and said sincerely, "No, I feel like you're stupid. Your sister is stupid for the child, why aren't you stupid for your sister. ”
Silly, touchingly silly.
The Lord of Qingqiu in front of her froze in place, her body trembled slightly, she had never thought of herself, nor had she ever thought that someone would say such a thing to her, so sure of her.
She is who she is, she is not a substitute for the nine-tailed demon fox.
"I can understand this feeling that others are leaving only their own burdens. It's not just people who are hurt that suffer, you must be sad. Heishui looked at the Lord of Qingqiu and said seriously, then smiled and comforted: "I'm very tired, you have paid too much in the past five thousand years." If I were your sister, I would have to say thank you for your hard work. ”
A shock came, and Heishui looked at the Lord of Qingqiu in surprise and didn't know what to do.
Tears wet the clothes, penetrated into the chest of the black water, silent sobbing, how humble, flesh and blood creatures, there will be fragile places, and they will all be injured equally.
