Chapter 10: Lethe River Crossing the Red Dust
Chang Di hugged the embers, rode his mount, slaughtered the Su ghost beast, and trekked for a long time, to the foot of a snow-capped mountain, by the Lechuan River.
In the distance, I saw a white-haired immortal, standing by the river, looking down at the river stupidly. The river was flowing from top to bottom, and there was a mist rising from the river, and the river was a thousand years of ice.
Changdi said that such a place where no grass grows is as desolate as Shenshou Mountain.
The white-haired immortal recognized their identities at a glance, "These two are not mortals, what are you doing here?"
"This immortal, dare to ask who you are?" Seeing that he had an extraordinary bearing, he must be a very powerful immortal.
"The god of water, Yang Yi. ”
Ember was surprised, she looked like she had never seen the world, and looking at Changdi's complexion, she knew that she was embarrassed again.
"Shanjun, Changdi. Courteous. He bowed his hand slightly.
"Who is the woman next to you?"
In front of this once ruthless character, she said loudly, "I am also a person from Heaven, I have heard your story, I am the attendant of the Fire De Star Monarch, called the Ember." ”
He said lightly, "I heard that the empty dust has been demoted. ”
Ember nodded, and was about to say the next sentence, but Changdi tugged at her sleeve and signaled to shut up.
"The god of water came here this time, I don't know why?"
Yang is also sad, "Shanjun may not know that this river water is ordinary, and it was Si Shenyue Enzi who made the river a thousand years ago, so that mortals can forget what they want to forget after drinking this river water." ”
After listening to the embers, sorrow came from it, it turned out that this Lethe River was not made naturally, but was just a masterpiece of the gods in the sky.
"The moon enzi you are talking about is the clan of the moon girl, and the god in charge of the marriage between the people in the Hehe Palace?"
"What Shanjun said is very true. ”
Looking at this silently flowing river, there is no way to know how many mortals, in order to forget the past, do not hesitate to come here, drink a cup, but wish.
And she, the fire demon, can only watch this Lethe River, and can't fulfill her wish from it. After she returns to Heaven, Luo Tang, the husband who made her first tears in the world, will be pierced and torn apart in this life when she misses him with her unsound heart, like a sharp blade.
Yang also said that Yue Enzi is the most ruthless and affectionate immortal in the sky, he has lived for a long, long time, and he is divided into peace. He is in charge of the marriage in the world, has seen all the stories of infatuated men and women, and has seen through the separation of life and death, he can't change it, he can only control it. He was born with such an immortal and had to do such a thing.
Until his clansman, that is, the Moon Maiden, fell in love with a mortal who should not have a life and disturbed the mortal precepts, he also suffered some heavenly curses due to mismanagement and aged a lot. He only felt sad, and remembered a booklet he had read in the Heavenly Book Pavilion, which recorded many rivers and lakes that had not yet been named, so he went to find Yang Yi, saying that he wanted to use his half-life cultivation as a method in a clean place, so that mortals in the world, after drinking the water of the practice, could forget the people who loved in the past and could not give up.
Worried, he heard Yue's thoughts, and pointed him to a place that day.
But unfortunately, that water is only useful to mortals. Those who have the power of mana cannot pass through this river to achieve their wish to forget. Yes, if you are not a mortal, how can you be swayed by this little river of practice.
He named it: Lethe.
Forget the river water, mortals can forget what they want to forget with a cup, and give up the feelings they have to give up.
It's obviously his story, but it seems that Yang Yi, who doesn't care about himself, stupidly conjures up a porcelain cup, takes water, and drinks it, as if drunk.
"There is a forgotten river water in the world, and there is also wishful dew. ”
Changdi stood by the Lethe River, smiled affectionately, and watched the departure of the embers.
Don't forget it, just let it be.
She flew towards the sky and said to herself, Changdi, I see that you are lonely from time to time, I see that you are very lonely in life, have you been as unfortunate as me, when I think of you when you were young, you practiced swords and studied hard in the icy and snowy Shenshou Mountain, and there was no one to accompany you, I couldn't help but feel sad. Are there many people like me in this world? They are happy now.
There is warmth in your cold attitude towards me, and I can sense that you like me, and when my heart is just beginning to grow, I can feel some affection and try to separate them.
Changdi, I have never been kind to you, but I still hope that you will try to forget me in this life, because I may not be able to return the same affection as you.
The Ember grew farther and farther away from him, and he became blurred by the river.
This time, Yang also went down to inspect the water conditions of all parties according to the routine, including the Lechuan River, which he gave his name.
The story behind that is that Yue Enzi looked at the world and saw those who were desperate to drink the water of Lethe River, and indeed erased some painful memories, but he fell in love with someone else, intermittently disturbing the marriage of Tianding. For the sake of the balance of all beings, he had to go to Yang Yi again.
There is a forgotten river water in the world, and there is also wishful dew.
Ruyi Lu Xian is extremely powerful, it breaks the time limit, so that no matter how many lives a sincere person is reincarnated, as long as he sees that person again, he will still recognize it at a glance, but it also comes with the pain of being distressed in all lifetimes.
I asked him why Ruyi Lu was like this, and who made it?
Xu is the feeling of meeting a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers, and he said that no one has ever listened to his story, and he listens so seriously.
I could see that he was less worried at that moment.
He said lightly.
In the Yama Palace, as the gate of reincarnation, there is a Yaksha guarding a bottle of wishful dew, and whoever has a wish that never forgets the person he loves, the Yaksha will dew a drop of wishful dew on his eyebrows, and if he is not sincere, the drops of water will disappear suddenly, and if he is sincere, the water will enter the center of his eyebrows.
And that Ruyi Lu is his own palm blood, he has failed a person, suffered thousands of years of distress, anyone who has received his Ruyi Lu immortal power, can be as non-heartfelt as he can not forget.
As Ember approached the sky, she heard as if Changdi was calling her name.
She quickly turned around and flew back, and sure enough, it was him, and he was also flying towards her.
He handed Ember a cloth bag, "I forgot to give you this...... Luo Tang wrote in your letter. ”
"If the days of the heavenly realm are not good, you can come to Shenshou Mountain. ”
He stood with his hands in his hands, his wide sleeves floating, and his expression was slightly drunk.
"I don't want to go to the mountains where there is nothing. Ember put it in her sleeve.
"That was in the past, and now it is a good place, walking in the snow to find plums, taking snow to cook tea...... That's it, there you go. ”
After he finished speaking, he rode the Tusu ghost beast and flew away without looking back, and she looked at the sky alone, the wonderful scenery between the world and the illusion, she was going back to heaven, and she was going to see Xingjun and Zuyun. Will Xingjun remember this letter he wrote to me in the world? I can't read, should he read this letter for me?
Forget it, she doesn't want him to remember the displeasure of the world, he is the head of the heavenly court, the beloved Huo De Xingjun, she wishes him a safe and eternal life.
It was still Aunt Qingyu who led her to fly through the Floating Illusion, and when she left, she said something very strange, and the Ember of Inquiry had a good life over the years, she wondered, how could Aunt Qingyu give such a greeting to a person she didn't know.
And she also said that if there is something difficult in the future, you can come here to ask her for help. Ember wonders, is she an old acquaintance with herself?
Ember walked towards the Fire Cloud Palace, there were patches of crimson, slowly falling down the corridor outside the hall, she followed its source, and saw Xingjun sitting by the window outside the study, he was drinking.
He saw her, and there was a lot of longing in his eyes.
Ember tears, "Star Monarch." ”
"Ash, you're back. ”
He hugged her, "Why do you cry when I go out?"
"Maybe I'm missing you too much, or I'm sick without tears. ”
"These days, my heart still hurts. ”
"Xingjun, I had a dream the day before yesterday, and after that dream, my heart hurts very much. ”
The soft lips fell on her forehead, and the light of the fire that had torn and made her feel distressed and unbearable was suddenly refreshed.
"It's just a dream, good or bad, don't take it seriously, forget it. ”
"Good. ”
I won't forget, I remember everything with you, Xingjun.
Xingjun really can't remember the things in the world, ask Zhiyan, in the days when he was not there, there was trouble, in order not to let him know about borrowing Zu Yun's immortal decree to go down to earth privately, she was full of nonsense, oops, after the immortal barrier restriction disappeared that day, I stayed in the temple obediently, didn't go anywhere, walked around when I was bored, and came back.
He believed her words, but when he saw the wooden bracelet on her wrist, he said coldly, "Zu Yun gave it to you?"
Ember hurriedly hid his left hand, waved his hand with his right hand, and said, "Pick it up, pick it up." ”
He got up, took her hand, and took off the wooden bracelet, "This bracelet is valuable, I will return it to him personally, and you stay here, and you are not allowed to leave the door of the study." ”
"Okay, Xingjun wants to say thank you to Zu Yun for me. Ember deliberately smiled innocently.
