Chapter 92: Mirage III
A thick white mist obscured the vision, and the figures that had been around seemed to have suddenly disappeared.
Li Fei subconsciously took on the two-layer copper wall technique, looked around, and shouted: "Xiuyuan, Gelin, are you there?"
The only thing that answered her was the ethereal and illusory singing, the dark fragrance floating around her, many half-naked women swaying and dancing, Li Fei reached out to push and grab, but he couldn't touch them, although there was a fragrance, as if they were close at hand, but they were illusory.
Li Fei waved his sleeves and released the fire separation technique, and for a while, the fire was flourishing, and those half-naked women disappeared in an instant, and even the illusory and ethereal women's singing voice disappeared.
The fog seemed to dissipate a bit, and Li Fei walked forward quickly, shouting the names of his companions.
Like her, Golin probably won't be fooled by naked women, but the rest of their group is full of men. Ye Ye is dedicated to singing the moon, and he is probably fine; Lu Li looks serious and serious, I hope he is okay; Ji Tongzhou, as a golden and precious prince, must have seen countless beauties, and those women who can't see their faces should not make the prince lose his soul; Lei Xiuyuan ......
When she thought of Lei Xiuyuan, something seemed to fall in her body, and she couldn't help but stop.
He is a person who has always been above the top, and he has never seen him pretend to be a reluctance to other women, so he should be, should not be tempted by those half-dressed women, right? Li Fei's reason clearly understood what kind of person Lei Xiuyuan was, but as soon as her feelings involved him, they were chaotic.
The dense fog finally completely dispersed, but when the sun set, the tired birds returned to the forest, the cold wind of the late autumn evening swept across the face, the maple leaves were red all over the mountains, and the bright red and old yellow of the rolling mountains were intertwined, like colorful brocade.
Li Fei was confused and frightened, she hurriedly looked around, this is Qingqiu?!The simple and simple courtyard where she and her master live?!! Why did she come back here?!
She looked at the closed wooden door in a daze, if she opened this door here, would she be able to see the Master? As if she had fallen into an evil spirit, she couldn't restrain herself, and slowly walked to the wooden door of the wooden house, and there was a candle flame jumping in the room-Someone was there, was it really Master?
As soon as his hand was placed on the firewood door, the door was suddenly opened by the people in the house, unexpectedly, the person standing in front of him was actually Lei Xiuyuan, he was wearing a cloth dress, his long hair was scattered, and he looked at her with a gentle smile in his mist-like eyes, and suddenly reached out to hold her arm, and said softly: "Where did you go? ”
Li Fei was in a trance for a while, dazed, and felt as if he had indeed been living in Qingqiu with him all along. She held his sleeve tightly with her backhand, looked up at him in a daze, thick black long hair, straight nose, clear face, and those wet eyes, the expression on his face was always a little proud, and the taste of being close to people was like a lonely crane.
Li Fei subconsciously muttered to him: "Xiuyuan." ”
He smiled and pulled her into the room, the wood door closed quietly behind him, the room was faintly candlelit, and the food on the table was already set, all of which were her favorite vegetarian dishes.
"Are you waiting for Master again?" Lei Xiuyuan grabbed a chopstick and bamboo shoot for her, "He will not come back in a few days, don't worry." ”
Oh, yes...... The master went out on errands, and it would take a few days to come back, so he specially asked her and Xiuyuan to take good care of the house. Li Fei's confused and chaotic heart gradually settled down, and after taking a sip of food, Lei Xiuyuan sandwiched a bowl full of dishes for her, and said lightly: "Eat more, it's so short that you die." ”
Li Fei also sandwiched a lot of dishes for him, and laughed sarcastically: "You have to eat more and grow stronger!"
As soon as the words came out, she suddenly felt familiar, did she say this somewhere? In the depths of her consciousness, she always felt as if she had forgotten something. After eating slowly, she watched Lei Xiuyuan hold a jar of salt and sprinkle it outside the house, the snow-white salt grains were put together into a circle of strange patterns, she remembered that this was a magic technique to exorcise demons, and she had to sprinkle it every night when the master was there, to ensure that she would not be secretly eaten by the monsters when she slept at night.
Li Feiqi said: "What kind of demon are you driving away? With me, there will be no monsters to make trouble at all?"
Lei Xiuyuan looked at her with a smile: "You can't even learn any nonsense?"
She has a spirit in her heart, by the way, she is not special, her qualifications are not good, she is sixteen years old and does not know how to introduce spiritual energy into the body, the master scolds her for being incompetent all day long, but fortunately she accepted Lei Xiuyuan, a genius of Tianzhong, otherwise there will be no successor after Fang. When she thought that she was just an ordinary person, she didn't know why she felt extremely relieved and relieved.
The night shrouded the entire courtyard, Lei Xiuyuan gently hugged her from behind, and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep." ”
What's the matter, she seems to be restless today, this beautiful and quiet life, like a dream, the invisible gaps in her heart are warmly filled, but it makes her scared. Li Fei looked up at Lei Xiuyuan again, and his eyebrows raised: "What, you don't want to sleep yet?"
There was a panicked question in the depths of her heart, which was already close to her mouth, and Li Fei said softly: "Xiuyuan, you ...... Do you like me?"
He smiled slightly, and turned her over to face him with both hands: "Of course I like it, I like you." ”
She felt as if she had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and even waited for her heart to be haggard, and when it finally came out of his mouth, she couldn't help but tremble slightly, her eyes were full, and she hurriedly covered her eyes.
The hand was gently grasped by him, and Li Fei looked at him as if he was bewildered, his face closer, and his warm lips lightly imprinted on her forehead. The unfamiliar kiss, the heat of the lips as if it shouldn't be like this, as if it should be hotter, hot, as if it would burn the skin, Li Fei subconsciously dodged away.
Lei Xiuyuan was a little surprised: "What's wrong with you today?"
Li Fei slowly pushed him away, her heart was up and down, she only felt messy, she smiled reluctantly: "I'll go to sleep." ”
She turned around and pushed open her door, and Lei Xiuyuan grabbed her: "That's the room where the sundries are placed." ”
Li Fei looked at the dark room, but saw that the room was empty, only a small wooden bed was placed under the window, brand new, freshly brushed with tung oil, shining in the silver moonlight.
It's so familiar, where has she seen this scene?
Li Fei broke free of Lei Xiuyuan's hand and walked over step by step, the small wooden bed was covered with a clean cotton mattress, and there was only a bloodstained jade-colored swaddling cloth on it, and there was nothing else.
Flashing light, what scene flashed through her mind, a hoarse and arrogant voice suddenly sounded outside the window, familiar and unfamiliar: "Stupid! Stupid! What is the use of being amazing! In the end, you are still entangled in these cumbersome things! You are bent on death! How can you hide it for a day, a year, or even a hundred years?"
Another old voice smiled and suddenly let out a long howl, as if singing: "It is a pity that I am old and declining, and the years are fleeting but not reversed!
Li Fei was almost jumping up like a lightning strike, she hurriedly looked back at Lei Xiuyuan beside her, he had a gentle smile on his face, and gradually, his body spread out like sand and disappeared, and everything in the house, the small courtyard, and Qingqiu also turned into gravel and dissipated in an instant.
A layer of soft white light flashed around her, and the origin aura that had erupted in the Lielie Valley in the past suddenly enveloped her body at this time, and she couldn't hide this layer of white light no matter what. Li Fei looked around in a panic, trying to find a place to hide, she didn't want anyone to see herself like this.
However, the fog had lifted, and all the people who had just been swallowed by the fog suddenly appeared around, everyone was watching her, and her secrets were exposed to everyone. Li Fei was terrified, she couldn't find any place to hide, the most fearful thing in her heart and the thing she wanted to hide finally happened, they were all looking at her, Ge Lin, Ji Tongzhou, Ye Ye, and Sing Yue...... Their eyes were so strange, like looking at an alien who didn't belong here.
Her throat seemed to be choked by something, her eyes were blurry, and she retreated again and again, and her back suddenly hit a person, who suddenly opened her arms and hugged her tenderly.
"Don't be afraid. He pressed it to her ear, a warm breath spraying into her ear, "I'm here." ”
Li Fei looked back in despair, Lei Xiuyuan was staring at herself with a smile, she seemed to have grabbed a life-saving driftwood in the raging waves, and curled up in his arms in fear and dependence.
"Help me, Xiuyuan!" Li Fei called to him pleadingly.
Lei Xiuyuan gently pushed her away, his gentle smile gradually became sarcastic, and he said in a low voice: "You alien, how can I really like you?"
Li Fei staggered back a few steps, and there were countless tides of laughter, scolding, and resentment around her, but suddenly became quiet in an instant, and she couldn't hear it anymore.
He just said she was an "outlier".
All the scolding in the world was not as good as Lei Xiuyuan's faint two words, which made her almost distraught, and all the repulsive gazes were not as hurtful as the sneer in his eyes. Li Fei looked at this young man who suddenly became a stranger in a daze, he was raising his hand and waving his sword to stab at him, with a cold smile on his face, and reprimanded: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different!"
Li Feiding watched the cold blade pierce into her chest, she didn't feel pain, only felt a bone-chilling coldness in her chest - is this death?
A hot hand suddenly pressed on her forehead, followed by a heavy slap on her face, the pain made her startle suddenly, and in an instant all kinds of absurd illusions disappeared like a tide, Li Fei gasped, her body was rudely picked up, she looked up in horror, and met Lei Xiuyuan's anxious eyes, his forehead was full of sweat, and when he saw her wake up, he instantly showed a look of relief.
"This is a ferocious mirage, spitting mist to create illusions, in order to absorb the essence of people. Lei Xiuyuan was close to her ear, his voice was extremely low, and the hot breath sprayed on her ear again, Li Fei only felt terrified, and unconsciously got goosebumps, she hurriedly dodged.
He looked around with palpitations, but saw that countless disciples were lying on the ground as if they were asleep in the thick fog, and the wisps of mist seemed to be alive, burrowing into each disciple's seven orifices.
The lush island hovered a few feet overhead, and a thick white mist overflowed from it.
She couldn't tell what was true and what was false, and looked down at her body, but there was no white light. She wanted to stand up and Tengyun leave here, but she didn't have any strength in her hands and feet, Li Fei struggled to break free of Lei Xiuyuan's arms, and crawled forward a few inches with great difficulty.
"Lefe?"
Lei Xiuyuan dragged her back, she was weak and powerless, and she had no ability to resist at all, she was pressed to the ground by him, and she was forced to look at him in horror.
“...... What visions did you just see?" he stared at her.
Li Fei turned her head and closed her eyes, this may be another illusion, she doesn't want to be hurt again. She struggled to kick on the ground with both feet, trying to break free, but it was easy to move an inch up, but he immediately followed, pressing forward step by step.
"What do you see?" he asked again.
Not wanting to hear him, she covered her ears with her hands and curled up in a ball on the ground.
I don't know how long it took, the lamentable wind suddenly whistled, dotted with stars, as if something hot fell on his body, Li Fei slowly opened his eyelids, but saw dense black gray sand falling like rain, and the suspended island turned into small pieces of dust in an instant for some reason, and the wind blew, shining and falling on everyone.
With the fall of those fine ashes, Li Fei only felt that her sour and weak body finally had some strength, she struggled to get up, suddenly, a pair of feet appeared in sight, Li Fei didn't need to look up to know who it was, she sat up hard, staggered, and ran with her hands and feet, and the back collar was suddenly mentioned, and she was involuntarily placed in front of Lei Xiuyuan.
He frowned and looked at her, I don't know if it was Li Fei's illusion, he always felt that there seemed to be a sharp golden light hidden in his eyes, and even a layer of cold and bright gold was revealed in his skin, which made Lei Xiuyuan look very strange.
"The mirage is gone, do you still want to run?" Lei Xiuyuan grabbed her cheeks with a "snap" of his two hands, Li Fei raised his hand in pain and slapped him in the ear, he didn't hide, just looked at her quietly: "Pain? The pain is not an illusion, everything you saw just now is fake." ”
He bit the last word "fake" very hard, Li Fei's chaotic mind finally calmed down, she looked around, the ground was full of fainted cultivators, the thick fog had not yet had time to completely disperse, the mirage attracted the cultivators of the whole island here, everyone was still immersed in sweet dreams or nightmares.
She moved her gaze to Lei Xiu's distant face again, still with that face, still with that expression. couldn't move, the coldness of the sharp blade piercing her chest was still in her body, she couldn't forget Lei Xiuyuan's gaze, and she couldn't forget the words he spit out.
Is it all fake? She closed her eyes and began to tremble uncontrollably.
Thankfully, those are fake.
Li Fei reluctantly showed a smile: "...... Do you dare not hit so hard. ”
Lei Xiuyuan pinched her face again: "It's not heavy, I don't know the pain, what did you see?"
Li Fei recalled the warm dreams that filled the cracks in her heart, and the nightmares that spread out her worst fears in broad daylight. In the vision, she asks a question she has always wanted to ask and gets the answers she wants the most, however, those are hypocritical and non-existent.
A trace of sorrow passed through Li Fei's heart, what she hoped for the most had been obtained in the illusion, and what she feared the most had also been experienced in the illusion. She is not the same as him after all, Lei Xiuyuan is a genius who will definitely shine in the future, but she is an outlier who needs to hide her secret and survive carefully.
But even so, she still wanted to ask the question that made her nervous.
Do you like me?
How I hope that after asking, he will give her a positive and warm answer like Lei Xiuyuan in his dream. In fact, he was so smart, how could he not see her clumsy apprehension and expectation? But he still didn't say anything.
The heart in her chest suddenly began to beat sharply, she couldn't tell whether she was nervous or scared, Li Fei only felt that the whole person was trembling slightly, she stepped forward and held his sleeve slightly, she had done this action many times, and there had never been a time when she was so nervous.
"Xiuyuan," her voice was shaking, as if she was about to cry, "you...... You ......"
Lei Xiuyuan stared at her for a moment, and suddenly his long arms gently wrapped her in his arms, patting her on the back as if soothingly, and there was a strange calming coldness in his voice: "Calm down, it's just a nightmare." ”
Is it really just a nightmare? His ambiguous attitude had hurt her greatly, and he knew that her tentative and expectant eyes would always follow his gaze, but he always pretended not to know.
"Stop thinking about those nightmares, when I didn't ask. Lei Xiuyuan's voice was low and soft.
Li Fei shook her head and slowly relaxed her fists, it turned out that she had been pinching her hands unconsciously, and her nails were pinched painfully. She took a deep breath and whispered vaguely, "Can I ask you a question?"
Lei Xiuyuan lowered his head and didn't answer for a while, just looked at her quietly. She still couldn't read the deep meaning in his gaze, he was clearly looking at her intently, but as if he was resisting her, avoiding her, unwilling to answer and affirm her positively.
"It has something to do with Fang Cai's illusion?" he suddenly laughed, his finger flicking his finger on her head, "It's all fake, don't take it seriously, don't think about it anymore." ”
Li Fei still shook his head: "You listen to my ......"
"Now is not the time for small talk. Lei Xiuyuan interrupted her snort, making her stunned, "The fog will dissipate, and the disciples here are about to wake up." ”
Li Fei was in a trance for a while, looking blankly at him and raising his finger forward, he didn't look at her again, but looked at the depths of the mist, and his voice was low and steady: "That's Baili Golin them, right?"
Li Fei felt that his reaction had suddenly been slowed down countless times, and he couldn't understand the current situation, so he couldn't help but mutter: "Xiuyuan ......"
Lei Xiuyuan interrupted her for the second time: "If there is anything to say, go and wake them up first." ”
"I ......" Li Fei still didn't react, she watched in a daze as Lei Xiu walked away from her, her back disappearing into the gradually thinning mist.
The obvious resistance and avoidance are even more blunt than before. Did he not want to listen, or did he not want to answer, or both? He knew what she wanted to ask, these ambiguous moments when she was about to break through the peak, those feelings that frightened her but rejoiced, suddenly slipped into the abyss.
He still didn't say anything, calmly watching her break down day by day.
Maybe the fog began to condense again, her eyes were so blurry, she couldn't see anything clearly, the fiery wind of midsummer poured into her sleeves, but it was like the wind of the cold winter moon, which made her shiver involuntarily.
Li Fei actually laughed twice, not knowing whether to laugh at those illusions or laugh at himself.
Chaotic feelings that can't find a way out, she must look stupid now, looking forward to someone who will never have an answer. What she hoped for, she had already obtained in the illusion, maybe it would be good to stop here-4842dmth19176827->
