"Blue snow day, slanting sun and green, lonely bridge reflecting willows and corridors, day after day, year-end year, who will see the old man return?"

Xiu Yuan followed the sound, and in the quiet night, Xiu Yuan had begun to get used to every such night, dark and quiet, and he had the impression that all such nights would be about to break out of the cocoon in this death-like calm.

He walked to the stone bridge, there was a woman in red standing on the bridge, the night wind blew her red clothes as light as cicada wings, there were three thousand black silks flying in the night wind, he saw the woman's delicate side face, the moonlight hit her silhouette, beautiful facial features, snow-white skin, long eyelashes flashed in the moonlight, Xiu Yuan stood not far away, looking at the woman.

The woman's red lips opened slightly, "You're here." ”

"Girl, are you talking to me?" Xiu Yuan didn't know the woman in red.

The woman didn't turn her head, and Xiu Yuan couldn't see her face.

"I've been waiting for you for twenty years, and you're finally back. ”

Xiu Yuan was stunned, not knowing what the woman was talking about, "Girl, did you recognize the wrong person?"

He was just about to step forward, wanting to see the woman's face more clearly, who knew that just two steps, the woman turned her head away from him, when a gust of wind blew, Xiu Yuan's eyes were fascinated by the sand, and when he opened it again, the woman was gone, leaving him standing alone on the stone bridge.

Xiu Yuan opened his eyes, it was really a false dream, he rubbed his temples and walked out of bed. When he opened the door, Mo Chou was about to knock on his door.

"Mo Chou, what's wrong with you?" Xiu Yuan saw Mo Chou who was worried outside the door, and his expression was very different from usual.

"I received a letter from my master that he was sick and that I was going back to see him. ”

"Don't worry," Xiu Yuan looked at Mo Chou with a crying voice, his eyes were slightly swollen, and he must have cried. "Come in and talk slowly. ”

Xiu Yuan pulled Mo Chou in and comforted her to sit down. "What's going on, why did you get sick all of a sudden?"

"I don't know," Mo Chou Lihua's tearful face was stained with tears, and she shook her head helplessly, "I also just received a letter in the morning, and I came to tell you that I was leaving." ”

"I'll go with you. Xiu Yuan volunteered to accompany him.

"No need, I'm going to rush back day and night, maybe faster, one person faster. ”

"That's fine. Although Xiu Yuan was not at ease, he felt that what Mo Chou said was reasonable, and he didn't force it anymore.

So after a while, Mo Chou, who had packed up, rode a fast horse and left the Li family. Xiu Yuan sent Mo Chou away to take a walk along the river outside the town, the river rose a while ago, washing away many fishing boats on the bank, but the stone bridge by the river that had been built for many years still stood there, impregnable.

Xiu Yuan couldn't help but walk on the stone bridge, touching the cold stone, and touched all the way to the midpoint of the stone bridge, his subordinates suddenly felt a bump, raised their hands to look, only to see two lines of words:

"The light spirit stone steps are invaded by the sunset, and the clouds and cliffs are windy and moony. ”

The handwriting is engraved very deeply, but it looks like it should have existed for many years, Xiu Yuan thought about it, and the person who had a poem engraved on the stone bridge should be unable to say anything in his heart, thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile and walked down.

"Xiu Yuan," he heard someone calling him from behind him when he walked off the stone bridge, Xiu Yuan turned his head and was behind him.

"Girl of the Same. Xiu Yuan saw that it was unswerving, his eyes lit up, since the incident of Xue Han and Jingxian, Xiu Yuan couldn't feel the unswerving eyes for a few days, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, sometimes he felt empty, but he didn't expect to see her by the river.

Unswerving walked over, getting closer and closer to Xiuyuan, still with bright eyes and bright teeth, and a face that captivated the country and the city.

Xiu Yuan could see himself in his unswerving clear eyes, "Why are you here?"

Unswerving looked at him, "I, actually, have been following you," and his cheeks couldn't help but turn red as he said this. "I saw you coming out of the house, and I followed. ”

Xiu Yuan didn't know how to pick it up for a while, "I just sent Mo Chou away, her master is sick and may have to go back for a few days." ”

Unswerving nodded, "I see that your face is not very good, you didn't rest yesterday, right?"

Xiu Yuan nodded, "Yes, I had a strange dream all night." ”

"Strange dreams?" Bu Shi followed Xiu Yuan to the town, and paused when he heard Xiu Yuan say this.

"Yes, it's a strange dream," Xiu Yuan also paused, recalling the scene he saw in his dream yesterday, "There is a woman in red in the dream, who is on that bridge, reciting poems. Then he pointed to the stone bridge he had just walked on.

Unswerving narrowed his eyes, and as Xiu Yuan's hand looked, he once again had a bad feeling.

"I should go back, Miss Bushy," Xiu Yuan stopped and looked at Long Busui.

unswervingly understands the meaning of Xiuyuan, although Xiuyuan has always deliberately kept a distance from himself, but since the matter of Xuehan, Xiuyuan really wants to avoid himself.

Without waiting for Unswerved to answer anything, Xiu Yuan walked away, looking at Xiu Yuan's thin back, standing there unswervingly lonely, waiting for him to go away a little bit.

Xiu Yuan felt the gaze of Unswerving looking at him as he walked, he had a strong desire to turn back, but this desire was stopped by the forbidden voice in his heart, can't, can't turn back, for Unswerving, it's better to see less than to see, it's better to let her give up as soon as possible than to let her struggle.

When he returned to the house, Xiu Yuan felt tired like he had never been, and he went back to his room to sleep after eating lunch early, and as soon as he lay down, Xiu Yuan's heavy sleepiness swept in.

On the stone bridge again, Xiu Yuan walked slowly, or the woman in red, by the smoky river, dreaming and longing, Xiu Yuan felt that his mind was not very clear, but he walked towards the stone bridge without obeying the call, and the woman in red still faced each other sideways, "Are you here?"

Xiu Yuan couldn't speak, and stopped not far from the woman.

"You're finally here, it's been twenty years, I've been waiting for you for twenty years. The woman in red muttered softly, Xiuyuan's feet did not obey the call, and gradually walked towards the woman in red.

"Who the hell are you, girl?"

"Have you forgotten me?" the woman lowered her head, and the snow-white Rouyi rubbed on the stone bridge, and the place where she stayed between her fingers was the place where Xiu Yuan stopped during the day, and there was a poem there.

"The light spirit stone steps are invaded by the sunset, and the clouds and cliffs are windy and moony. The woman read the verse.

Xiu Yuan felt that this poem was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"You wrote it to me, I memorized it, and then engraved it here, there is my name in this poem, you don't remember?" The woman's long eyelashes flickered, and there seemed to be something crystal flashing in her eyes.

"Girl, who the hell are you?" Xiu Yuan asked her again.

"Maolian, you have failed me. The woman ignored him and repeated one sentence after another, "You have failed me, you have failed me." Suddenly, her long hair flew up, a gust of wind rose, rolling the woman's three thousand black silk, the red clothes also rose in an instant, the woman's green ten fingers suddenly turned into white bones, the black hair covered her face, still can't see clearly, Xiu Yuan was stunned there and couldn't move, the woman's hands opened to Xiu Yuan, at this moment, a hand grabbed Xiu Yuan's arm and pulled him back, Xiu Yuan was pulled by this external force and seemed to regain consciousness for a while, he popped back, the person who pulled him was unswerving, and he flew to the front of Xiu Yuan, and his hands drew a purple light on his chest and sent it to the woman in front of him, the woman was repelled by this purple light A few steps, because the purple light on her back flashed to the too bright, I couldn't help but cover my eyes with my sleeves.

Thinking that it was now, he pulled up the cultivation edge and ran back quickly.

"Where is this?" asked Xiu Yuan as he ran with Immortal.

"In your dreams. ”

"How can we get out?" Xiu Yuan was puzzled, since it was a dream, why did he have a clear consciousness but just couldn't wake up.

Unswervingly, he tightened the edge, "Hold me and don't let go." ”

Xiu Yuan nodded and held on tightly, only to see a white hole in front of him, getting closer and closer.

"See that half-man-high hole? ”

Xiu Yuan nodded again, tightened tightly, turned around and the woman in red was chasing, the two of them sped up, and saw that they had reached the white hole, and they grabbed Xiu Yuan and jumped in.

Xiu Yuan was hit by the dazzling bright light when he jumped into the hole, he covered his eyes, and the other hand held on to it, and a strong wind in the hole sucked them in, through the hole, the two of them fell to the soft ground like a lawn, and then the hole gradually closed.

Xiu Yuan rolled on the ground a few times, but he still grabbed him stubbornly, and the two of them rolled down and rolled around a few times before stopping.

This pause, Xiu Yuan opened his eyes, the unswerving face was close at hand, he felt the warm breath she breathed out, Xiu Yuan's eyes were facing the unswerving, that pair of eyes were in front of him, facing the beautiful suffocating face, Xiu Yuan looked at her distractedly.

It was the first time that Bu Shi looked at Xiu Yuan so closely, and then she let go of her hand, and Xiu Yuan also realized that she had grabbed her too tightly, and the two people who let go of their hands sat down on the side.

"Well, now she can't get in. Unswerving's eyes drifted to the side.

"What is the woman in red?" Xiu Yuan nodded, unswerving.

"It's the unjust soul, she entered your dream. ”

"Then where are we now?" Xiu Yuan stood up and looked around, surrounded by green grass and a paradise-like fairyland.

"This is my dream, where I grew up. "I found out that you were haunted by the nightmare of unjust spirits, so I created a dream and came in from my dream to save you." ”

Xiu Yuan turned his head and looked at the unswerving, he only knew that he was unswerving and beautiful before, but he never dared to look at her directly because she was so beautiful, this time, Xiu Yuan didn't know if it was because of the dream or when he looked at her up close, it had already relieved the timidity in his heart, he looked straight at him, and his eyes couldn't take his eyes off her delicate face.

Unswerving noticed that Xiu Yuan was looking at him, and he was at a loss for a while, and he actually looked away unnaturally.

Xiu Yuan then looked elsewhere. "It's so beautiful, that's where you grew up?" he smiled and gestured with his hand around his waist, meaning that he would never forget when he was a child.

Bu Shi also smiled and nodded, and also gestured on his waist, "I grew up, but I was still a little fox at that time." ”

As soon as the words came out, he was unnatural, and this unnatural was just because he forgot that he was not a human being.

Xiu Yuan saw that there was a difference in his expression, and seemed to realize something, so he took over the topic, "The little fox is also a child, right?" ”

Unswerving was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes and looked at Xiu Yuan, he was smiling at himself, that smile seemed to take her back hundreds of years, the Venerable under the hemp veil caressed his injured self, and the compassionate smile made the silver fox raise his eyes and shrink his head to snuggle under his palm to keep warm.

Unsucking pursed his lips and smiled slightly.

The two of them paused for a moment, but after a while, they still broke the silence, "Xiuyuan, have you encountered anything recently, why did you encounter a nightmare?"

Xiu Yuan was asked by this question before he remembered Fang Cai's thrill, he shook his head, "I dreamed of this woman yesterday, or Shiqiao, she has been reading a poem, as for today," Xiu Yuan paused, and suddenly remembered something, "I remembered, there were two engraved poems on the stone bridge, and the woman kept repeating, I asked who she was, and she said that I was responsible for him—she called me, called me Maolian." ”

"Mao Lian?" she narrowed her eyes, "Do you know this person?"

Xiu Yuan shook his head, "I haven't heard of it." ”

"Remember those two lines?"

Xiu Yuan recalled, "I remembered it, the sunset on the light spirit stone steps invaded, and the clouds and cliffs were wind and moon, yes, these are these two sentences." ”

"There must be something in this." ”

"Is it a hidden poem, what is the meaning in the sentence?" Xiu Yuan also repeated to himself.

Unswerving was reminded by this sentence, thinking about something, "Don't care about these for now, if you return to reality, you may not be able to sleep first." ”

Xiu Yuan's eyes widened, "Can't sleep?"

Unswerving nodded, "Otherwise, that nightmare will come back to you at any time, I'm afraid I won't be able to be so timely every time." ”

First, she was worried, and she didn't know how powerful this nightmare was, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to resist it.
