22. A hundred years ago
"Why?" Jiang Xingmian asked very cheerfully. She felt that Meng Qianyan had a strong desire to talk, and she liked to listen to stories the most when she first arrived.
Meng Tianyan chuckled lightly and said amazingly: "Because, I took away my sister's body."
Jiang Xingmian couldn't keep up with Meng Tianyan's jumping thinking rhythm, but Xue Hongyan said, "Who is your sister?" โ
"My sister?" Meng Qianyan's face showed a look of reminiscence: "My sister is Meng Qianyan!" Ah no..."she shook her head, a bit like a madman, "Now I've fused with her memory, we're the same person. โ
"Your sister's surname is Meng, your surname is Lin, what kind of mess, cousin?" Xue Hongyan said impatiently.
Meng Qianyan grinned, and replied with a radiant face: "I am surnamed Lin, and I am the only daughter outside the forester, but you don't know, my father abandoned his childhood sweetheart in order to climb the high branches to marry my mother, and it didn't take long for the woman to give birth to a daughter surnamed Meng, she is Meng Tianyan."
Xue Hongyan: "......"
Meng Tianyan smiled and continued: "Originally, I didn't know that I had such a sister, until she was admitted to Yunxiao Palace and returned to the village in fine clothes, and my father made my mother a concubine in order to tie her up, I didn't know that my half-sister was so good. โ
Speaking of which, Meng Tianyan, oh no, it should be said that Lin Yuqi had an idiotic smile on his face, which looked very abnormal.
She winked at Xue Hongyan playfully and cutely: "You don't know yet, right?" My sister is really kind, she doesn't mind my existence, and wants to be a sister to me. โ
"What's my business?" Xue Hongyan muttered.
She couldn't get used to Lin Yuqi's crazy appearance, and mocked: "Since she is so kind, then why do you want to give up her body?" โ
"That's a good question!" Lin Yuqi actually applauded happily, but after being happy, she sighed again: "I didn't expect that one day I would actually take away her body."
She looked at Wen Chuyan: "Can you allow me to tell a story?" โ
ยท
It was a spring morning when all things were resurrected, the wind and the sun.
Lin Yuqi, the only daughter of the forester, after obtaining her father's consent, took a group of maids to the East Lake in Xinyang Town to go on a walk, and on that ordinary day, she unintentionally rescued a dying teenager.
The boy seemed to be suffering from a strange disease, and his face had a large and terrifying black scale.
She wanted to take him home for treatment, but the personal maid panicked and stopped him, saying that he was infected with the plague, which was a bad thing and should be punished immediately
At that time, she was ignorant, but deep down she actually understood that human beings with scales must not stay.
However, she relented, and not only did she save him, but she also ordered the scales from his face to be plucked out of his face.
When the boy woke up, he stayed with her.
He was silent and never took the initiative to speak, and she didn't know what his name was or where he came from.
So she took the initiative to give him a name, called 'Mu Yu'.
Mu Yu is very smart, no, it should be said that he is a genius.
He not only knows divination, can read celestial phenomena, and even knows spells, because of his erudition, the forester has the idea of recruiting him as a son-in-law. At that time, he did not refuse.
The second year.
The scars on Mu Yu's face finally healed.
What kind of face is that? It can't be described in words that he is shocking, every time he goes out, it is clear that he is a guard, but people who don't know him regard him as a master. However, she was not angry at all.
At that moment, she realized that she liked to see others praise Mu Yu, which made her feel a sense of honor and happiness.
However, Mu Yu's outstanding appearance soon attracted the attention of the ladies of the family, and they threw olive branches to her one after another, hiring him to be their bodyguard, but Mu Yu refused without hesitation every time.
She was touched by his devotion to her.
She often asks Mu Yu: "You are so good, I am not as good as you, and I can't give you anything, why are you still willing to stay by my side?" โ
Mu Yu looked at her, his purple eyes were like stars on the other side of the deep sky, and he said: "No matter how good they are, that's their business, in my heart, you are the most irreplaceable."
At that time, she blushed in the face of such a straightforward confession.
She looks forward to getting married to him every day, but how can a person as good as him really like an ordinary landlord lady?
The turning point of everything has to start with the sudden appearance of Meng Tianyan.
In order to return to her hometown, her father not only demoted Lin Yuqi's mother to a concubine, but even gave her status as a concubine.
At that time, Lin Yuqi's eyes were full of Mu Yu, as long as she could be with him, no matter what her identity was, so she was not sad or sad, but what she never expected was.
The sister who kept saying that she didn't care about anything actually took away the person she loved the most.
At that time, Mu Yu and Meng Tianyan were both Dharma Awakeners, and they would often discuss some esoteric issues that she couldn't understand together.
Seeing that they got along well, Lin Yuqi's heart was like a knife.
She clearly understood that she couldn't snatch her sister, who was a genius of Nianning Academy, but she was just a mortal who hadn't awakened anything.
She can only hope that Mu Yu's heart is actually full of her.
However, on the night when her sister left the house, Mu Yu suddenly told her.
"I'm sorry, we're not people of the same world, and I'm going to take back my previous promise to you." In the moonlight, his mask was cold and silvery, and he looked at her with emotionless purple eyes, and said softly, "I'm leaving." โ
She humbly kept her, but he was unmoved.
And just like that, he turned around and disappeared into her world without mercy.
Since then, she has woken up from nightmares every night. She dreamed that her sister and Mu Yu were flying together, laughing at her stupidity.
Whenever this time, hatred erupts uncontrollably, and she can't figure out why three years of getting along day and night can't compare to just one month of contact?
Just when her heart was dying, a natural disaster fire quietly descended in Linjia Village. She lay on the couch and didn't want to run away at all.
She thought, it's better to die like this, to die...... You can forget him.
She was burned in the flames and saw her body turn to ashes. The process was painful, but the corners of her lips were always smiling, and in her opinion, this was not a relief.
"But what I never expected was...... In the last moments of his life, he was actually seen wearing a mask above the sea of clouds. โ
Lin Yuqi covered his face, his whole body trembled, and described the painful scene of the year: "He calmly watched the burning of Linjia Village, looked at the villagers he was once familiar with, and wailed in pain in the fire. Actually...... Indifferent. โ
"I tried my best to get closer to him, and the intensity of my resentment made my soul much more condensed than that of other ghosts, and I asked him, why? I know that he set the fire, and that he was once polluted by demonic energy...... The day finally came of my bitterness, and I ......"
"And then?" Wen Chuyan interrupted Lin Yuqi's incoherent speech.
Lin Yuqi closed his eyes, and his tear-stained eyelashes trembled violently: "He told me that he set the fire because he was a demon." โ
"Hahaha......" Lin Yuqi laughed sadly again: "I see, hahaha...... It turns out that he is a demon, it turns out that he is a demon, I actually fell in love with a demon, you say it's not ridiculous? โ
Smiling and smiling, Lin Yuqi couldn't cry: "I told him that if there is an afterlife, I want to become a disciple of the sect, I don't want to love, I want to slay demons!" โ
"So, that's it?" Xue Hongyan was a little unsatisfied.
She is really just listening to a story, after all, the background dynasties are different, and there is no sense of substitution at all.
