Chapter 213: Memories of Illusion (1)
Mu Chengye looked at her in a daze, couldn't help but hold her hand, and comforted softly: "From now on, what belongs to you and me is peace and happiness." ”
Since they decided to be together, he will definitely make her smile happily every day.
"The matter of blood beads ......" Xie Qian seemed to be still worried about the fairy world.
Mu Chengye expressed his understanding and promised seriously: "I will continue to investigate." ”
He can always make himself feel comforted, and Xie Qian couldn't help but laugh. The gloom in her heart also dissipated in this promise, guessing that the two should be greeted by a sunny day.
Suddenly, the whole sedan chair shook, as if it had been hit by something.
Mu Chengye frowned, lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw that several clouds of black gas were surging in all directions, entangled with the guards. Some of the black qi that slipped past the guards concentrated their forces on attacking the sedan chair.
He snapped his fingers, and the bamboo leaf butterfly flew out to disperse the black qi. The guards were able to get out of trouble, turned around and thanked the Demon Venerable and continued to move on.
Mu Chengye's eyes turned to the sedan chair, and his pupils couldn't help but dilate. Xie Qian, who was supposed to be by his side, has long since disappeared!
He didn't know that the black qi just now was just to attract his attention, and the purpose was to take Xie Qian away.
At this moment, Xie Qian was taken to a fantasy world, and the black qi disappeared completely.
She turned her eyes suspiciously to look around, and found that this place was extremely similar to the illusion she had seen in Bai Nanshuo's body before, but it was not so desolate.
The entire street was filled with evil spirits, and they roamed in it, but they didn't seem to see Xie Qian. Even if Xie Qian stretched out her hand to stop it, those evil spirits would pass through her arms and go straight forward.
Still wondering, she caught a glimpse of a five-year-old girl being beaten by a group of older children in a small alley on the corner.
Her small body curled up, protecting a dusty steamed bun in her arms. No matter how many fists fell on her body, she refused to let go.
The children fought for a while, and they were sure that they couldn't get the steamed buns, so they stopped dissatisfied. One of the children spat at her and led the others away.
Only then did the little girl sit up, carefully wipe the steamed bun, and then grinned. She held the steamed bun and found a stone to sit down, and seemed to enjoy nibbling on it.
Her body was full of injuries, and too much movement would make her grin in pain. But her face was full of happiness, as if she was not eating steamed buns but some delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Happy, of course, because she is now eating her first meal in two days.
She has been hungry for the past two days, with her chest pressed against her back, guarding the steamed bun stall, silently thinking in her heart that a steamed bun fell to the ground. From morning to night, I finally got rid of one by myself.
She didn't care about anything else, so she immediately ran over and grabbed it.
What she didn't expect was that the homeless children nearby saw it and immediately came over to grab the steamed buns. She understood that if this steamed bun was taken away, she would definitely starve again, so she desperately guarded this steamed bun.
Although this steamed bun does not have a little taste, it is better than all the delicacies of the mountains and seas.
Of course, Xie Qian knew the cause and effect, because this little girl was her former self.
Although Mu Chengye was also secretly protecting her at that time, because of the turmoil in the beginning of the Demon Realm, he sometimes had to go back to deal with affairs. At this time, Xie Qian, who had no one to help, would inevitably not be injured.
After eating the steamed buns, the little girl wiped her mouth with satisfaction, and when she raised her head, she saw Xie Qian looking at her with complicated eyes. She suddenly narrowed her eyes, smiled and beckoned, "Sister, hello." ”
"Hello, coriander." Xie Qian walked over calmly and gently stroked the little girl's head with her hand. I don't know how long the messy hair hasn't been washed, and it's a little prickly.
She suddenly realized that this little girl seemed to be a puppet made by the illusion.
Coriander raised her face and asked with an innocent smile, "Do you know me?" ”
"I know you." Xie Qian said lightly, "After all, on the entire street, only you can see me." ”
Hearing this, Qian Qian blinked her eyes inexplicably, and wondered: "Sister is so good-looking, why can't others see you?" ”
That's not what she meant.
Xie Qian withdrew his hand, looked at her with inquiring eyes for a long time, and asked again, "Why are you here?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the light in Qianqian's eyes dimmed. She sighed deeply and said, "My father and mother are gone, so I can only find something to eat on this street." ”
"You didn't think about finding a place to stay for a while?" Xie Qian asked casually, patiently waiting for her answer.
If she remembered correctly, she should be waiting to participate in the acceptance of Hanhai Cangming.
Sure enough, Qianqian's eyes lit up and said, "I inquired about the recent Hanhai Cangming to accept apprentices, so I waited here until the evening to sign up." ”
The puppets in the illusion are predetermined, so only those who are very familiar with their past will know about them. Xie Qian fell to the ground with goosebumps all over his body, and always felt that the mysterious man might be a stalker.
Still thinking about it, he turned his head to see that Qianqian's eyes were focused on the bun stall on the other side. The steamed buns are steaming and fragrant, very tempting, and they taste much better than the steamed buns she ate just now.
I forgot to wipe the saliva of coriander, and my eyes stared at the bun without blinking.
Remembering that she didn't seem to have eaten anything good before entering the Immortal Gate, Xie Qian felt a little sorry for her. She walked straight to the bun stall, handed over the silver and said, "I want a bun." ”
The evil spirit couldn't see Xie Qian, but continued to sort out the freshly baked buns.
Xie Qian had no choice but to hand the money to Qian Qian and let her buy it herself.
Coriander didn't dare to pick it up, and asked with wide eyes: "We don't know each other, why do you want to give me money to buy buns?" ”
"When I see you, I think of me when I was a child, so I can't help but help you." Xie Qian said very sincerely.
She didn't suspect it, but Qian Lai jumped over excitedly and bought two buns back.
Xie Qian smiled helplessly: "Can you eat so much alone?" "She ate a steamed bun just now.
"Of course it's for you, sister." Coriander raised her head as she spoke, and handed over a hot bun, "It's noon, and when it's time for dinner, my sister must be hungry." ”
Was he so well-behaved when he was a child?
Xie Qian's heart was warm, and he took the bun and said thank you, and then sat side by side with her next to the big stone to eat the bun.
The evil spirit can't see itself, but the bun can be delivered to his mouth, and the taste is excellent. She realized that she seemed to be a little hungry, so she slowly ate the whole bun.
The two of them wiped their mouths in the same posture and smiled satisfactorily when they looked at each other.
Xie Qian only reacted at this time, and the childhood self in the illusion was too similar. The person who can make such a puppet must be familiar with his childhood.
Could it be that the mysterious man started this plan since he was very young?
