35 | Woman in green
The demon slapped his head and immediately said, "As long as the blood spirit can find me, I will definitely be able to lure him out." ”
Pu Jia smiled: "Is the demon planning to use himself as bait again?" ”
The demon said: "I hope there will be no special situation this time." ”
Pu Jia habitually pinched the demon's face and said, "This time, I will be by your side the whole time." ”
The demon took a deep breath, nodded firmly, and walked straight in the direction of the temple.
Since there was also a formation laid out by the blood spirit around the temple, the demon didn't dare to get too close, but he was worried that because it was far away, the blood spirit would not be able to feel his breath.
So she thought about making some noise to get the attention of the blood spirit.
The demon took out the dream bead from his bosom and cast the dark blue light emitted by the dream bead into the dilapidated window of the temple.
Sure enough, as soon as this move came out, there was finally movement in the temple that had been silent for a long time, the broken temple door creaked open, and the ghost cultivator woman in green clothes walked out.
For the first time, the demon saw the woman's face.
Pale, like ice and snow that has not melted for many years, a little red lips like red plums blooming in the snow. The most breathtaking thing is her pair of eyes full of smoke and rain on the causeway, and all kinds of styles.
There was a faint sorrow between her brows, like a bleak moonlight on the white sand.
The demon looked at her eyes, and almost instantly, he sank into her peerless face and the sorrow like the sand of the moon.
Just when the demon almost forgot the original purpose of her appearance, the woman in the aqua green dress suddenly spoke.
"I know he's done a lot of wrong things over the years, and I have no intention of excusing him." There was a hint of melancholy in the hollow valley's mandarin voice, "Now, he has been severely injured, and his time is numbered. ”
"If only the two of you would spare his life." The woman glanced towards the place where Pu Jia was hiding, "I will pay for the mistakes he has committed." ”
When the demon hesitated, Pu Jia stepped forward and said, "Have we met somewhere?" ”
The woman in the aqua green dress nodded slightly: "You are Pu Jia, I remember you." ”
Seeing that Pu Jia still looked puzzled, the woman chuckled, but her eyes were still full of sadness.
"The Battle of Zhongjiang, on the banks of the Weishui River." The woman reminded.
Her words seemed to evoke Pu Jia's distant memory, and some fragmented pictures gradually appeared in his mind.
There are wooden warships hunting with flags, flying arrows and skyrocketing fire.
There is a young and resolute teenager who seems to be named Chen Agou.
and the hurried glance that he led his army to break through the encirclement of the Jiangzhou army and looked at the enemy's commander.
A look of realization flashed in Pu Jia's eyes, and the woman said, "Do you remember everything?" ”
"You are the female general who returned to Jiangzhou." Pu Jia Road.
The woman in green nodded lightly: "My name is Shangguan Miao, and I am Qin Hanmu's wife." ”
Pu Jia suddenly had a thought in his heart that made him feel overwhelmed, and he looked at Shangguan Miao in a daze and said, "The one in the temple, is it General Qin Hanmu?" ”
Shangguan smiled bitterly, but did not speak, obviously acquiescing.
"The general has an order, if you can defeat me, let you go."
What Cui Mu said to him back then once again lingered in his ears, Pu Jia's body trembled slightly, and suddenly a soft and warm hand held his palm.
The demon smiled in his eyes, and pinched his face as Pu Jia did before.
At that moment, the years passed, and the wind rose through the years. The warm touch of the fingertips awakens the warmth hidden deep in the heart, and there seems to be a deep valley stream in the ears, and the peach blossoms are in full bloom.
On the big bluestone slab, the moonlight stained the eyebrows of the leaves, and the demon stepped forward and pinched it gently.
Pu Jia is also a little trance-like. Through the eyes of the demon, he seemed to have a glimpse of the time in the canyon, when the two were dependent on each other.
The still water flows deep, and everything is in plain sight.
Pu Jia stared into the demon's eyes, and the demon nodded at him.
"Miss Shangguan, can you tell us what happened back then? Why did General Qin ...... Will you become a blood spirit? ”
Shangguan Miao sighed lightly and said slowly: "Back then, I received a Feishu message from the Weishui guard outside Zhongzhou City, and learned that Han Mu led an army across Weishui to pursue you. ”
"I expect that after the battle between the two sides, you will definitely retreat back to the north bank of Weishui. So I rushed to the south bank of Weishui, led another army, and crossed Weishui, intending to block the retreat. ”
"Later, in the woods outside Wangxi Town, we met the team that you had tied up. The team leader told me that you changed into the clothes of the Jiangzhou army and went to attack Hanmu. ”
Shangguan Miao smiled self-deprecatingly, and continued: "At that time, I was smart, led a team, and changed into the clothes changed by the Zhongzhou Army, originally wanting to become a yellow finch that hunted praying mantises. It's a pity that fate made people, when we arrived at Wanggui Village, it was already controlled by the Jiangzhou army. ”
"Before I could identify myself, I was ambushed by the village chief and his people outside the village, and the whole army was wiped out......"
"But you are obviously a ghost cultivator, how can you be easily injured by mortals?" The demon was puzzled.
"Because at the beginning of the war, she used the Ghost Dao Forbidden Technique, so that her body was weak, and she was no different from ordinary people." Pu Jia said.
"Perhaps, this is the end of the immortal cultivator's unauthorized participation in the human war." The sadness in Shangguan's misty eyes became deeper, and it seemed that his body was also illusory.
The demon rubbed his eyes, suspecting that he had seen it wrong, and at this time, Pujia's voice sounded again.
"And after that?"
Shangguan Miao raised his head and looked obliquely into the distance. After a long time, he slowly spoke: "I was weak at the time, seriously wounded and captured. The villagers of Wanggui Village thought that I was the general of the Zhongzhou Army, so they vented all their anger on me. ”
"Because the village chief's son had his arm cut off in the previous battle, he cut off my arm......"
Shangguan Miao was like a bystander, unhurriedly telling what happened to him back then, and after listening to it, the demon couldn't help but burst into tears. She didn't dare to think about what would happen to her if the torture that Shangguan Miao had suffered at that time fell on her. Maybe she'd rather die.
But the beautiful woman in front of her, who looks weak and untouchable, in order to survive and see her beloved again, actually carried everything with her weak body.
"When Han Mu rushed over, I was already dying and couldn't speak." Shangguan Miao continued, "If I still had a little strength back then, I would have stopped him and prevented him from doing stupid things." ”
This time, the demon finally determined that it was not his own dazzle, but Shangguan's misty body was indeed a little illusory.
"Han Mu let the Jiangzhou army blockade the entire Wanggui Village, and then set a blood curse at the cost of his own life."
