Chapter 58 Worship
"Meow. ”
Yoyo screamed and jumped above his head, and the little fox's face was full of dissatisfaction.
"Stupid human, with this palace here, how could he possibly allow that old man to hurt you, a servant?"
Su Xuan remembered that the Starfall Sword had told him the mysterious origin of the little guy in the Mind Realm, and his eyes became softer and softer when he looked at it.
Yoyo said with some suspicion: "Why are you looking at this palace like this, your heart is hairy." You're not going to be frozen stupid, are you?"
As he spoke, its furry little paws reached into his forehead and thoughtfully took his temperature.
"Of course not!"
Su Xuan hugged the little guy in front of him, took a sip, and kissed it fiercely on the side of the face.
"I just found that my lovely Highness is getting more and more beautiful, and I am deeply fascinated!"
"You ...... Unwise...... Person...... Kind. ”
The sound of Youyou's soft meow is almost inaudible, the little paws wipe the saliva on his face as if disgusted, and the big snow-white tail is swaying and leisurely.
......
The sky is bright and clear, the clouds are light and the wind is light.
Su Xuan quietly looked down at the familiar shelter on the ground below in the air, and sighed with emotion for a while. More than a month ago, I used to look up at the starry sky and fantasize about how the immortals above the nine heavens would be. And now, he has become a fairy figure in the mouth of mortals from generation to generation.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing that something was wrong with his emotions, Ripple inevitably asked suspiciously.
"It's nothing, it's just a feeling. ”
Stroking the smooth and supple fur, Su Xuan looked at the busy boys and girls in the shelter below,
"I stayed here for three years after the catastrophe. ”
"Then why don't you go down and have a look?"
Su Xuan smiled and said, "There's no need for this, only Xiang Yang really cared about me at the beginning." What's more, they probably don't have any memories of me now. ”
Obviously, Li Dong told him about the secret technique of sinking that he had used on these people.
"Hmph, it turns out that you are also a villain who holds grudges. Ripple mocked faintly.
"Anyone who's been suffering from that damn headache for three whole years won't have a good impression of this place. ”
To this day, Su Xuan still has palpitations when he thinks of that inhuman suffering. Seeing the desolate ruins around him, perhaps because he was touching the scene, the hatred that had been hidden in his heart for a long time quietly spread in his heart.
Without saying a word all the way, the two of them and one beast swept towards their destination at high speed.
The surrounding scene became more and more desolate, ruined and devastated.
Su Xuan leaned down, picked up a piece of bits and pieces of stone, pinched it slightly, and turned into powder and scattered in the air.
"Unexpectedly, three years later, this place is still deserted. ”
The ripples covered his face with a light veil, and he felt a certain unusual aura faintly flowing in the air here, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
"There must have been a great war here, and the remaining energy has not been dissipated to this day. Therefore, it is not suitable for human habitation, and even birds and beasts are difficult to see. ”
"You're right, there was indeed an earth-shattering battle here three years ago. ”
Su Xuan's face was gloomy, as if he remembered the lonely boy who cried helplessly on the ruins. He walked forward, skirting the ruins to a waterway that had dried up.
He pointed to the dry river and recalled: "When I was a child, I used to play in the water here. And Xiao Ningdi, also in this small river, went down the river and was picked up by me and brought home. ”
He stretched out his hand and gestured, and said with a slight smile: "At that time, Ning Yan was only so small, and he couldn't speak. Anyone who came near her would raise their throats and weep. And only when her big black eyes saw me, she grinned and giggled. Because of this, my father and mother were even jealous of this intimate relationship between me and Xiao Ningyan. ”
Ripple listened quietly, she could feel that Su Xuan had fallen into some abnormal state at the moment, it seemed that only by remembering the good memories and pouring out her feelings could she express the gloom in her heart.
"Meow. ”
Yoyo let out a low chirp, and the little guy with Gusu blood flowing on his body felt more abnormalities than Ripples at the moment. In Su Xuan's mind, the darkness that had been hidden for a long time was gradually filling, invading the entire sky. Yoyo's expression is awe-inspiring, this stupid human being is in a turbulent mood at the moment, and he can't maintain a clear and pure heart, which may be the root of this demonic energy that is ready to stir up trouble and make waves.
It's just that he, a human being, could have such a huge amount of demonic qi in his body? Moreover, judging from the quality, this demonic qi in the sky seems to be even more refined than that wolf cub who dared to harm this palace!
Su Xuan continued to forget his recollections: "In this way, Ning Yan gradually grew from a babbling baby to a little girl carved in pink and jade step by step. You may not know that my brother's love for my sister is silent and introverted, and some are extremely domineering, and I just belong to the latter. I never allowed any other boy in the village to approach Condensation, and if anyone dared to bully her, I would fight with my life to get justice for Condensation. So, at that time, two or three days was to have a blue nose and swollen face, and of course those people would not feel good. Whenever this happens, Condensation is a teary-eyed potion. As for me, I can't see her crying in front of me the most. Although her body was still in pain, she had to try her best to make her happy. However, when I saw the smile on Ning Yan's little face, I felt that all this was nothing. ”
"Although the days are ordinary, with the company of Ning Di and his father, every day is full and fulfilling. Until that day, until that man ......"
Thinking of the contradictory man with a rebellious face and a gentle voice, Su Xuan's expression suddenly became hideous, his eyes were faintly red, and his whole body trembled violently!
"Meow!"
Feeling the surging demonic energy in his mind, Youyou immediately roared solemnly, but before it could make any moves, the starfall sword behind Su Xuan, on the blue gem on the hilt, the faint blue light flickered, and a refreshing cold chill suddenly spread to his heart. The rolling black clouds were instantly frozen into sheets, and after a burst of unwilling roars, they quietly hidden, hiding in the unknown darkness somewhere.
"Uh......"
Su Xuan's eyes returned to clarity, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and asked suspiciously, "What I said just now, why don't I remember?"
Only then did Ripple quietly release the fists tightly clenched in his sleeves, took a deep look at him who was slightly confused, and said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just a little complaining." ”
Su Xuan obviously didn't believe her explanation, and said, "Impossible, how can a sunny and cheerful teenager like me complain for no reason?"
Ripple didn't want to say anything more to him, and said in a faint voice, "Didn't you say you were going to come to worship?"
"Hehe, yes, that's why I brought you here. Su Xuan's tone was playful, but there was an indelible sadness on his face. He walked to a dead tree, caressing the dry and cracked bark, the bare trunk exuding a strong smell of decay, "I think that at the beginning, this acacia tree carried the happiest time between me and Condensation. In May every year, the acacia flowers are fragrant, the blooming flowers are steamed and the most delicious, and the small flower buds with buds to be put are the most fragrant and sweet. At that time, what the two of us little ones were looking forward to the most was that our mother could cook a sumptuous and delicious acacia rice, the acacia flowers were like snow, and the elegant fragrance was refreshing. It's a pity that this beauty can now only be tasted lonely in memories. ”
In a sad tone, he came to the back of the acacia tree, where a small mound stood silently. The grave was already covered with faint moss.
"It's an empty grave, not even a well-dressed grave. ”
Su Xuan dusted the wooden board inserted in the mound with his hand, and the handwriting on it was already blurred under the erosion of years and months.
"After all, the disaster happened so suddenly, everything was covered under the rubble, and I couldn't get anything. ”
He knelt in front of the grave and whispered, "Daddy, and Ning, I've come to visit you." ”
Ripple quietly stepped forward and kept taking out fruit from his cuffs and placing it in front of the grave. Seeing Su Xuan's surprised gaze, she turned her face a little unnaturally and said casually, "Hmph, I knew you wouldn't think of bringing something to worship your relatives." Time was in a hurry, and I only had time to pick up some rudimentary fruits. ”
Su Xuan smiled gratefully and said, "I knew that it was the right decision to bring you along." ”
He took a few sticks of incense from Ripple's hand, and the look in his eyes flashed, and the cigarette smoke was ethereal. He kowtowed respectfully a few times and said, "Ningyan, you always say that your brother won't be able to find a daughter-in-law in the future." But you see, now this sister-in-law should be able to match your heart, right? Daddy, my son's lifelong affairs have been settled, and you don't have to worry about me anymore under Jiuquan. ”
Su Xuan's voice was low, and Ripple frowned slightly, but he didn't refute it at this moment.
She also lit a few pillars of incense in front of the grave, and was silent and speechless.
Despite this, Su Xuan still looked at her with satisfaction. He knew that he had done his best to do this with the girl's cold heart.
"Meow. ”
Youyou jumped down from the top of Su Xuan's head, his little paws were folded, and he also worshipped in front of the grave in a decent manner.
Su Xuan smiled heartily, he couldn't help liking it in his heart, and hugging the little guy was a fierce kiss.
"Meow!"
The big tail swayed, and the fleshy little paws wiped their blushing fox face as if disgusted, and his tone was very dissatisfied.
"Stupid human being, now that the situation is special, this palace will not care about your weak offense this time. ”
Such an arrogant voice made Su Xuan's heart tickle even more. I just wanted to grab it and make a light move, but under the eyes of Ripple with great disdain, I had to give up.
He looked at the small wooden board that he had broken his fingers and cried blood back then, and said solemnly: "Daddy, condensation, don't worry, I am doing well in Fengtian Sect, and my master and brothers are all close to me." I also got the quota to go to the Central Region to participate in the Dongzhou Domain Examination of the Great Kangke Examination, you look at it, I will definitely pass the domain examination and successfully obtain the qualification to go to Kyoto, and avenge your hatred!"
"At that time, I survived because of him. But his approach was an even more brutal torture for me. For three years, I was tormented by remorse in my heart all the time. If I hadn't shown him the way at that time, maybe all this disaster wouldn't have happened? Our family is still living with Mimi and I? And now, I've finally figured out the identity of that person! When I get to Kyoto, I'm going to ask him in person, why did he do it! And then, and ......"
Ripple was in horror as she listened, and then what it was, of course she understood what it meant after that.
"What is the identity of your enemy? With this kind of earth-destroying power, his status in Kyoto must not be low!"
Su Xuan smiled freely, and there was an inexplicable emotion hidden in his voice: "I only know that his surname is Zhao." ”
Ripples trembled all over his body, and he lost his voice: "Zhao?!"
"Looks like you know what this last name stands for. ”
Ripples surged with great anger in his heart, and said angrily: "I don't know that it should be you!"
"How could I not understand? That's my enemy's last name!" Su Xuan looked at the girl and carefully understood her restrained concern, "Zhao, the surname of Dakangguo, this is the surname of the royal family that dominates the territory of mankind today." ”
"Then you still ......"
"Is it because of such a surname that I can give up the enmity of my parents and sisters?" Su Xuan raised his head and looked up at the clear sky in the north, he knew that the direction of the holy city of Kyoto was there, "So, I tried my best to get a place in the imperial examination." Standing in front of him as a candidate, even if he has the authority to cover the sky, he doesn't dare to secretly solve me quietly at that sensitive moment. Otherwise, with the white jade boat obtained in the Eclipse Tomb, I would have gone to Kyoto alone to seek revenge on him. ”
At this moment, Ripple really had mixed feelings in her heart, she never thought that Su Xuan's enemy would be a member of the royal family surnamed Zhao today.
She looked at him with complicated eyes, and said in a low voice: "Even if you can stand in front of him openly? Putting aside the disparity in strength, how can you, a small commoner, fight the royals?"
"If you can fight, you can avenge your family. If I can't fight, I can go down to accompany my father and mother, and Ning. Su Xuan smiled, "Anyway, I won't lose anything, so why worry about this kind of thing." ”
Ripple suddenly said angrily: "You are purely going to die!"
"Death, maybe. In this world, I am the only one who has lived too boring. He looked at the angry girl sincerely and pleaded, "Although I always talk to you, I really treat you as a friend." If I'm dead, can you help me take care of this little one? ”
Su Xuan reluctantly handed Yoyo to Ripple and said, "I know that you have a noble status, so if I hand over this uneasy Highness to you, I will definitely be able to get the most perfect care." It still has injuries on its body, and it can't stand the wind and cold the most, if there are some red sun things, it is the best. It never eats meat, and only needs to feed it some fresh fruits and vegetables on weekdays. It's also very hygienic, and if you can, you have to clean it twice a day, so you don't have to worry about it soiling your home. It would wake up every night when it was ugly, shivering all over, presumably from a typhoid attack in its body. At this time, it is best to gently hold it and stroke its back so that it can sleep peacefully. Also, every day at noon, the sun is the hottest, and it is also the time when it likes to bask in the sun the most. It is best to prepare a bowl of water, it will always be thirsty after basking in the sun, so you should drink it in time. And ......"
"Don't say it!"
Ripple interrupted him very irritably, she pointed at Youyou, and said angrily: "Since you know it so well, you can take care of it yourself, what's the point of handing it over to me for some reason?"
Su Xuan lowered his head and looked at the quiet little guy in his hand, but found that his beautiful royal blue pupils were filled with tears at some point. Su Xuan seemed to see the scene of Yu Ning crying silently to him when he was a child, and suddenly became at a loss.
Youyou's heart was moved, it never knew that it still had so many unknown little habits. But Su Xuan was able to find out all of them, and took care of himself quietly.
"Stupid human, don't you want me?"
Yoyo's tone was sad, and at this moment he didn't even have the mood to call himself this palace.
"I didn't ...... Nope!" Su Xuan scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "How can I not want Your Highness?" It's just that I'm too incompetent as a servant, so I want to help Your Highness find another candidate." ”
"Don't, I don't want others, I want you!"
"Okay, good ......" Su Xuan was helpless, but in fact, he had a faint sense of relief, hugging the little guy with teary eyes tightly, just like hugging his sister Yu Ning back then.
"Human, you can't die. You don't want to escape the clutches of this palace in this life! This palace does not allow anyone to harm you, not even the human emperor!"
Listening to the chattering words, Su Xuan regretted why he had just said what was behind him.
He looked at the ripples in his heart and said, "Let's go, Master, they should also wait." ”
The girl nodded absentmindedly.
Just as they were about to turn around and leave, an abrupt voice suddenly came from their side.
"Do you want to leave, leave it all to Lao Tzu!"
