Rain under the eaves.

Sheng Xuanyan and Qiong also finished talking about the old things, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, he said it succinctly, only a few words, and brushed over the ordeal he suffered, as if it was just a trivial matter.

He didn't deliberately break the appointment and let her wander for so long, every year and every day after leaving Luo Yaobai, he never forgot her.

This situation is long-lasting, and the mountains and seas can be flat.

Joan was choked up and speechless, and her hand tightened tighter and tighter.

The rain outside the eaves was getting lighter and lighter, and it had almost stopped, and the grass blades between the stone crevices were shaky and verdant.

Qiong also didn't know what kind of mood Sheng Xuanyan was looking for himself in those days when he was away, he didn't say a word to himself when he was expelled from his family and wandered the world.

He always does this, doing more than he says, and always does what he says.

"As for the fact that my appearance has not changed, I have also asked the great-grandson of the hidden doctor. He said, maybe it is the same body as Wang Gu, I live by its life, I have more lifespan, now that Wang Gu is exhausted, I will gradually grow old like ordinary people. ”

Joan also looked at him in a daze, her eyes already reddened.

"Alright." Sheng Xuan patted her on the back: "Qiong Yi, you still remember me and are still willing to recognize me, it's already something I can't even dream of." ”

Joan also took a deep breath to relieve herself from the pain.

Yes, it's all gone, he's found himself, and she's always had him in her heart, and that's enough.

When Sheng Xuanren was looking for Qiong Yi in the world, he heard the rumors of the Transitional Spirit, but he didn't connect this evil man with Qiong Yi.

Rumors of the Soul Crossing Man are all over the folklore, and it is said that he is a demon who seduces the soul and asks for his life, and is often used to intimidate women, children, and children, even adult men will be jealous. Some people say that the real body of the soul crosser is a seventy-year-old woman, and her face is ugly and hateful; Some people say that he is a strong man with a height of eight feet, and like black and white impermanence, he is a ghost; Some people also say that the real body is a young woman who likes to wear white clothes. There are different opinions, and there is no definite opinion.

Sheng Xuan resented that after he abandoned his cultivation, it took him decades to cultivate the meridians, and then cultivate his true qi, but so far it was only a low-level, and the bane left by his self-destruction could not be refined. For the evil spirit crosser, he only cared about asking for clues about Qiong Yi, and he didn't have the heart to investigate, and he never suspected that it would be her.

After all, Joan was also afraid of demons, and he knew it all too well. How can a person who fears ghosts spend all day with ghosts?

But that's just the way it is.

The silver bells used for decoration on Qiong Yi's body all contain ghosts, and there are a lot of them, and even the bronze bells pinned to his waist are extremely weird, which is quite the legacy of the people of the Demon Sect.

The rain had stopped, Qiong Yi stretched out her hand outside the eaves, no rain fell, she looked back and complained to Sheng Xuan: "Go back?" ”

Sheng Xuan nodded resentfully: "Let's go." ”

*

Forty-two years of Tianmao.

Sheng Xuan resented tying Qiong Yi to the horse to help her escape.

The frightened horse galloped all the way, I don't know where Qiong Yi went, the curse took effect slowly, Qiong also began to show symptoms of confusion, and finally left the desert, the horse died of thirst and starvation, she ate the horse raw in order to survive, remembered Sheng Xuan's instructions, and fled all the way south in a daze, running into a deep mountain.

This mountain is called Yanduan Mountain, the mountain is treacherous, and it is difficult for a lonely goose to fly out of the mountain forest.

Joan also stumbles like a living ghost, her dead body and her soul are not in harmony with the soul of reincarnation, and the evil curse holds them together, causing her to be in a trance, and she can only live by instinct in the wild goose mountain.

She had only woken up once, and she had been awakened.

The jade lily of the valley in her arms moved, it was hot and scary, Qiong also guessed that Sheng Xuan complained that something had happened, this wisp of spirit would be so abnormal, she was afraid that something would happen to him, so she drew the spirit out of the jade, and the soul returned to the Lord.

After that, she lost consciousness completely, and she wandered in the mountains for more than a year before she walked out half-clear and half-dark.

When Qiong also walked out of Yanduan Mountain, all the injuries on her body had been healed, but her soul body had not yet fully adapted to the evil curse, and she often fell into a state of loss of soul and could not talk to people normally. She wasted a lot of effort to ask people, and others would only think she was a madman and a fool, and she would be dismissed at will, and the rural villages in the neighboring mountains did not know the world, so they could only tell her that the war was over.

Qiong also thought suddenly: When the war is over, Sheng Jun will be able to come and pick me up.

She knew that her reputation had been ruined by Yan Tingshen's tricks, so she couldn't show her face, she couldn't make a statement, and she didn't even dare to bring trouble to her master, so she could only wander while asking for clues.

Occasionally, one day, Qiong Yi rescued a woman from the hands of the mountain bandits, and after killing the mountain bandits, the evil curse recurred, and she fainted, and the woman did not leave Qiong Yi alone on the side of the road, but took her with her. The woman's surname is Liu, and she is the second in the family, so Qiong also calls herself Liu Erniang.

Qiong also walked with Liu Erniang for a long time, in order to return home, she begged hard for someone, Liu Erniang inquired about the news for Qiong Yi, and it was also the last straw that overwhelmed her.

Sheng Xuan died of resentment.

He passed away half a year ago.

This news seemed to collapse like a sky, making Joan also almost collapse, she was outcast, unkempt, no one or a ghost, she didn't have any thoughts of living, and the only person who supported her to still want to live was long gone.

No worries, all thoughts are lost.

That night, Qiong also left Liu Erniang and jumped into the river to seek death.

However, the curse had been planted, and no matter how much she tortured the body, she could not die.

Qiong was also washed ashore in the lower reaches of the Kyaukming River, and the villagers of the neighboring river spotted her and carried her up. When the villagers were preparing to bury the corpse, an old man found that her breath was not exhausted, rescued her and adopted her, Joan was also too mentally hit, and hit the shore stone in the current, lost her memory, and became the family of the old man and the old woman, because she went down the river, they named Shun'er.

When Xirong was driven back to the desert, they returned to their hometown, and they saw Shun'er, who was about to run out, and raised her as their own daughter after rescuing her. Joan has also adapted to life in a small village, farming and weaving with old men and women, and washing and collecting firewood by the river.

The old man's surname is Ren, and the old woman's surname is Shi, they don't know Qiong Yi's age, and because she is not tall and looks beautiful, she looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, so she really thinks she is a child. Ren Lao has a gentle temper, is a blacksmith, loves Shun'er very much, and will cast all kinds of gadgets for her when he is idle, he sees Qiong also holding the jade lily of the valley in a daze from time to time, refining the silver bracelet at home, and making a small bell for her to make her happy.

Qiong, who became Shun'er, also likes the old man and the old woman very much, she will take the initiative to take over the work at home, let the second old man rest more, and will also tell funny things to make the second old man happy.

After a year or two, Joan also regained her memory, she has fully adapted to the curse, and has become a living dead, as long as the soul survives, the body is immortal and immortal.

After the memory came back, Qiong also gradually learned about the world situation, she had been abandoned by the sect, and the Guangyang clan had also defended her, but she chose to shut up in front of a bigger voice and support her more, but it was the fathers and villagers in Taiyang City, as well as the people of Ershan who had erected statues for her.

I heard that the statue in the small village of Ershan was smashed and smashed, and the craftsman's hand was cut off by the Xie monk as a warning, but the craftsman did not admit his guilt, but instead used his feet to sculpt the statue for her.

After knowing this, Qiong often cried silently, but felt that it was better not to wake up, and she was more willing to be a carefree "shun'er" in the village than the pain of being "Lu Xiyan".

The old man and the old woman didn't want to see her sad, and persuaded her to let go of the past and live again, after all, the days ahead are still long.

Qiong also understands this truth, Sheng Xuan's resentment is dead, no matter if the master abandons her, no matter if the protector hates her, she can't be immersed in pain all day long.

The men in the village all know that the blacksmith Ren's hometown Shun'er girl is beautiful and moving, famous far and wide, and often asks a matchmaker to say goodbye to Lao Ren, the second elder will carefully check, pick a good family character and say with Qiong Yi, Qiong also refused and refused, she didn't know that her fiancé was dead and would not come back, but she couldn't marry someone else.

She said that she had a marriage contract and a man, and she couldn't let the suitor stop, until Ren Lao and Shi Po felt that she really didn't want to marry, and she resigned all over the Murakami's matchmaker, and finally became pure.

Qiong also lived in the small village for five years, five years is a long time, and the memories are also short, every time she thinks of Granny Shi carrying a night light to add charcoal to her stove, and remembering Ren Laole calling her Shun'er, Qiong also feels warm in her heart.

Not long after such a peaceful day, an epidemic broke out, infected all over the village, Ren Lao first fell ill, his eyelids were black, his palms were red, and he was in bed coughing non-stop, Qiong also sought medical advice, and did not want the doctor in the village to die of illness first, the villagers fell one after another, Qiong was also full of anxiety, went to the town to find medicine, and returned to the village Ren Lao had passed away, and the corpse was purple, like the symptoms she had seen somewhere.

She couldn't care about her grief, because Granny Shi was also sick.

I happened to hear that there is a small town, adjacent to Yichuan, quite far away from the village, called Jiangtang, where there is a medical clinic that can cure this disease. Qiong also carried Granny Shi to Jiangtang, she said that she would not let her mother-in-law die of the epidemic, and ran day and night.

Joan was also afraid that she would lose her physical strength and break the old man on her back, afraid that she would fall asleep, and gasp and talk to the old man from time to time.

Shi Po was very light, very light, tortured by the epidemic like a skeleton, she heard Qiong Yi's cry between gasps, felt sorry for her girl, and asked her to let herself go and stop running.

Joan didn't stop, the wind in the mountains was very strong that night, the clouds were very low, there was a faint thunder, she told her mother-in-law not to sleep, don't sleep, sweat mixed with tears sprinkled on the dirt road, running so angry that she was about to break off, Shi Po called "Shun'er" dumbly, and closed her eyes.

As if sensing the gradual coldness of her body, Joan slowed her pace, and in a moment, she ran forward like crazy, crying and screaming heartbreakingly, connecting with the gloomy sky in the distance, and finally turning into a torrential downpour.

Joan also failed to make it to Jiangtang.

She carried the dead body back to the small village, buried the corpses of the two elders together, kept the seven days of filial piety, and after all the aftermath, she put on the small bell that Ren Lao gave her and left here.

Qiong didn't know where she was going, but deliberately avoided the direction of Jiangtang, she lost everything again, and wandered unrelentingly, until, she met Zhu Yunluo.
