Chapter 67: Return the Gift
"But, since I met you, it's different."
Speaking of this, a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of Nanque's mouth.
"You've given me new experiences that I've never experienced before."
"For the first time in my life, I had a name."
"Sister Zhanlu, I like the name Nanque very much. I also love the string of beads you gave me. ”
She looked at her now empty wrist, and there was a little loss in her eyes.
"But I lost it."
In order to protect her, the string of beads shot the demon lord and did not return to her wrist.
Zhan Lu remembered the heartfelt smile that Nanque showed when she brought a string of beads to prevent Nanque.
It was probably the first time Nan Que had received a gift, so no matter what kind of mystery was hidden in that gift, it would be against her.
None of them could be stronger than the joy she felt at receiving the gift.
At that time, Nan Fei really liked the beads, or maybe not the beads, but really liked the first gift she received.
Zhan Lu was suddenly glad that she had made the right decision.
When she realized that Nan Finch's life was in danger, she did not hesitate to choose to protect Nan Finch.
At that time, she didn't think much about it, but after getting along for so many days, she had more or less some feelings, and she couldn't bear to put Nanque in danger.
I'm not afraid that Nanque has a problem, I'm afraid that Nanque is fine.
If there is a problem with Nanque, when it is found, the matter is revealed, and it is not difficult to solve Nanque.
If Nanque has no problem and she doesn't come to the rescue, causing Nanque to die, she will regret it for the rest of her life.
Nanque continued to say, as if she wanted to pour out the bitterness and sweetness of her life at this moment.
Because she was afraid that she would not have a chance to say it in the future.
"After meeting you, I have my new clothes for the first time, and I like every one of them like every one of them."
After she returned to her room, she cherished and stroked it countless times.
She hid alone and was happy for a long time.
"I have friends of the same age like Mao Zheng and Dai Peilan, and they will give me a lot of toys and good food."
They will share with her everything they have seen, what they have played, all the fun and delicious things, and give her a copy.
"There are all kinds of hair accessories and clothes that Sister Liu Qinuo bought for me, as well as her most sincere treatment."
"She said she was going to bring me back to the Cangchen Mountain Sect and let me be her sister and practice with her."
"I yearn for that kind of life, I want to be like a person, have the happiness I have now, and live a good life again."
But she doesn't deserve it after all, she has done too many bad things.
Zhan Lu's throat was a little choked, she knew that in this world, there are thousands of people, some good and some bad.
There are thousands of kinds of gods, some good and some bad, and there are thousands of kinds of immortals, some of which are also good and some of them are bad.
There are also thousands of kinds of demons, and there are also people like Nanque, who do not voluntarily become demons, but are turned into demons by others.
Doing things that I can't tell right from wrong.
Only at a certain opportunity, when they feel the warmth, will they wake up.
Only after they have seen the light, experienced the light, and been wrapped in light and warmth do they know what kind of life they want.
The only thing that makes her feel fortunate now is that although she is guarding against Nanque, she has not hurt the other party in the past few days.
It's a little cold, but it's not indifferent.
"I'm sorry, my sister doesn't deserve your life for me."
Zhan Lu felt that this apology should still be said, she really didn't treat Nanque with the same sincerity as Liu Qinuo.
Nanque shook her head: "Sister Zhan Lu doesn't have to be sorry, Nanque didn't want to take her life, it's just that Nanque is unlucky." ”
She just wanted to take this bottle as a gift in return, to give Zhan Lu a gift back, and to thank her for her kindness.
It was only at the moment when Zhan Lu's beads protected her that she felt that she had no regrets in dying, and she had not made a mistake.
It's just that now, she doesn't have to tell Zhan Lu this, it will only make Zhan Lu blame herself even more.
Nanfinch's body began to become transparent.
If it weren't for the heavy yin aura of this forest, she wouldn't have lasted so long.
"Sister Zhanlu, will a person like Nanque have an afterlife?"
People like her, who have killed so many people, as well as her own parents and younger brother, should be gone.
Even if there is a chance to be reincarnated, I think I will be tortured in hell.
"Yes." Zhan Lu gave her an affirmative answer.
If Nanque expects it, she can fight for her, which can be regarded as repaying her kindness.
Nanque laughed, it was a childlike innocent smile.
"It's good to meet you."
With a satisfied smile, Nanfinch vanished.
However, by the time her body began to become transparent, Twilight had already set up a Soul Gathering Array on the side.
Nanque's soul was gathered by him and sealed in a soul gathering bag.
Zhan Lu saw that Nanque's soul had been properly placed by Twilight, so she put her mental power into the bottle in her hand wholeheartedly.
She clenched the bottle in her hand, a little impatient and apprehensive.
I can't wait because I miss my parents.
She wanted to open the bottle and see her parents, whom she hadn't seen in 200 years, to see if they were okay.
When she died, her parents were still alive at the border, what happened later? Will he be imprisoned by the demons?
She was curious to know everything.
The trepidation is because she is afraid of all the abnormal circumstances, and she is afraid of facing these bad results.
But she was afraid that what if Nanque took the wrong one, what if it was sealed in the bottle, what if it wasn't her parents?
She was also worried that the souls of her parents sealed in the bottle would be incomplete, if there was only a wisp of remnant souls, she would not be recognized at all, and she would not even be able to be sent to the mortal world to be reincarnated?
Or, what prohibition has the heart demon added to this bottle, if the heart demon himself opens it, it will cause damage to the soul inside, if it is because of her opening, it hurts the soul of her parents, what can I do?
Zhan Lu checked the bottle countless times, but found nothing unusual.
But she still didn't dare to open it, she called Twilight, "Twilight, help me see, is there any strange prohibition in this bottle?" ”
When Zhan Lu examined herself, Twilight had already explored with her.
He was also afraid that the bottle stolen by Nanque would be manipulated by the demons, so he opened the bottle and hurt Zhan Lu.
However, after checking several times, there was nothing abnormal in this bottle.
Qiandu held Zhan Lu's somewhat trembling hand and said gently, "It's okay, I'm here, it's going to be fine." ”
Although the environment is a little bad, from Nanque's words, it can already be determined that this is the territory of the demons.
The demons can be chased out at any time.
It's really not a good place to stay for a long time without preparation.
But this place is full of yin qi, and it is the best place for the soul.
Zhan Lu, with the support of Twilight, eased her inner anxiety a little.
She plucked up her courage and opened the cap.
All the bad things she thought about didn't happen.
Immediately afterward, two large spots of light with firefly tails floated out of the bottle and fell to the ground.
Then, with the point of light as the center, it gradually expanded and elongated, and finally two figures stood in front of Zhan Lu and Qiandu.
Those two figures are Zhan Lu's parents, Hubu Shangshu and his wife Xu Yao.
To Zhan Lu's surprise, the second old man's soul was sound and there was no lack of anything.
Probably because the demon didn't think that the demon would betray him, so he didn't do anything, and the sincerity was a little unbelievable.
It's just that the two of them are a little old, more than ten years older than when she last saw them.
The clothes on the second elder's body are not very good, some are shabby, and there are even patches.
This proves that when the second elder died, he died in such clothes.
Zhan Lu didn't know how much the second elder had suffered after leaving Beijing. Just looking at the soul of the second elder in front of her, her eyes turned red in distress.
She didn't dare to shout, but she couldn't help but shout out of her throat: "Dad, mother." ”
The second elder also had red eyes, he didn't expect to come out of that muddy place, let alone see Zhan Lu.
"Girl, grow up." Zhan Lu's mother wiped her tears.
floated over and picked up her daughter's face and wiped her tears for Zhan Lu.
"Don't cry, it's not beautiful if you cry."
"Twilight is still around, it's time to dislike you."
Zhan Lu's mother wiped her daughter's tears and persuaded at the same time.
Listening to the familiar tone, the familiar tone, as if everything was the same as before.
They hadn't been apart for 200 years, and they hadn't experienced anything bad.
Everything is so nostalgic.
Zhan Lu couldn't control her tears, they had their own thoughts, they just wanted to get out of their eyes.
She plunged headlong into her mother's arms and let the tears flow uncontrollably.
Twilight stood aside and replied in a gentle tone, "I won't dislike it." ”
How could he dislike it, he also waited for two hundred years to meet again.
He had rarely seen Zhan Lu cry so happily, and she had always been strong.
He hopes that Zhan Lu can do whatever he wants, be able to let go of his emotions, and return to the age when he didn't have to bear all the burdens.
Everything, he can settle everything for Zhan Lu, as long as she is happy and worry-free.
He is trying to make Zhan Lu rely on him wholeheartedly and live happily and freely.
He is happy to see Zhan Lu's growth, but he hopes that Zhan Lu is happy and relaxed, and does not have to force himself to bear all the burdens.
Chiwi shouted to the spirit of Tobe Shangshu in front of him, "Teacher." ”
looked at Xu Yao again and shouted, "Master." ”
Say hello one by one.
Tobe Shangshu can still control himself, but his eyes are red, and he doesn't cry in the end.
Twilight called out to him, and he nodded in response, "Twilight has grown up, her temperament has changed, and she is calm." ”
Looking at the daughter in his wife's arms, he sighed: "The children have grown up. ”
This growth that he did not participate in made the old father feel self-blame and guilt.
Before the accident in their family, Zhan Lu was still a carefree lady, innocent, splendid, lively but not naughty.
Now, his daughter's aura has changed, and he can see that the child has matured.
The innocent and beautiful innocence has disappeared, and the lively and lovely side has also converged.
If you want to ask him how a father knows that his daughter has grown up, he has more than the details, he only knows, just one glance, he knows.
At that glance, he didn't see the innocent light in his daughter's eyes.
Even Chiwi, the child he once taught, was young and frivolous, young and promising, and unbridled and dashing, and now he has put away all his edge.
Standing there, it gives people a good aura.
It's all his fault, if he wasn't an official, if he didn't pay the military salary, these two children would not have to bear so much wind and frost.
They could have lived their lives in peace.
Zhan Lu sensed her father's inner turmoil and raised her head from her mother's arms.
"Daddy, you don't have to blame yourself, it wasn't your fault in the first place."
"Let's go back and talk about specific things, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time."
The place where they are currently is the territory of the demons.
It's better to leave first, and then come back to investigate.
It's hard to break the maze here, so you'll have to make some preparations to come back later.
