II. Chapter 52—Weeping
A fire broke out.
The fire soon spread to the wooden windows, and then rose to the roof like a fire dragon, and the huge beams burned almost instantly, as if they were about to fall in the next moment.
In the sea of fire, Ling Yue's face was sad but helpless.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the beam was burned in two, fell down, and set off a raging flame, separated from the middle of the house, and suddenly countless sparks flew in all directions.
The figures of the three cultivators couldn't help but step back and avoid the other side of the beam.
Ling Yue was able to breathe slightly, she glanced to the side, only to see the water trembling and curled up in the corner of the wall, the flames had already surrounded a few feet around him, and the roof was constantly smashed by burning wooden beams.
The fire became more and more ferocious, and in the blink of an eye, the entire house was about to be engulfed.
Ling Yue's eyebrows were poignant and complicated, she didn't care about anything, rushed into the sea of fire, and picked up the aquatic life that had already been ownerless. It's just that the weight in her arms made her injured leg shake, and she almost fell into the fire.
She stood up on her own, looked at the trembling man in her arms, there was sadness in her eyes, and gentleness, and said softly: "Shuisheng, let's go." ”
At the end of the cross, the three men slashed with magic weapons, and the beam was instantly torn apart, turning into countless burning charcoal and flying out, and the fire between them was much smaller, or in a moment, it was about to rush over again.
Ling Yue didn't look back, just frowned slightly, hugged the aquatic life, and rushed into the courtyard from a wall that was eroded by the flames and was about to become ruins.
"Boom!"
With the sound of flames churning, the entire house collapsed, creating a ruined wall wrapped in flames.
At the same time, the three cultivators broke through the ferocious flames, drilled out of the sea of fire, and landed behind Ling Yue.
"Demon, leave off!"
Ling Yue hurriedly glanced back, turned around and took Shui Sheng's hand and was about to leave, who knew that what would happen next would completely break her heart, and the glimmer of hope in her heart would also be shattered.
Suddenly, the water broke away from her hand.
Ling Yue turned around, only to see that at some point, Shui Sheng actually came to his senses, but his face was extremely hideous and distorted in the skyrocketing firelight, as if his eyes were also reflecting blood red, and he howled hoarsely, followed by a dagger that was waved indiscriminately.
"Let go of me!"
"Let go of me!"
Ling Yue stared at her, forgetting to dodge for a while, as if time was also frozen at this moment.
In this way, a dagger gently came over, slashing across her back, as if slashing through her heart.
Left with a bloody wound.
Ling Yue couldn't feel any pain in her body, only the desolation and colicing in her heart.
A wind came, and under the fierce light of a magic weapon, Ling Yue's body shook, flew out heavily, and fell to the ground.
Blood gushed and soon stained a large area of the ground.
She lay in a pool of blood, looking at the aquatic life, her eyes seemed to flash with a faint light, and she shouted softly: "Waterborn, aquatic ......."
Shui Sheng looked at it in astonishment, and slowly retreated, he was suddenly stunned for some reason, tremblingly threw down the dagger in his hand, held his head in both hands, and let out a heart-rending wail: "Ah!"
Behind him, there was a "boom", the flames rolled, and in the colorful sparks, the only remaining ruins and broken walls also fell into the sea of fire, completely becoming a ruin.
Ling Yue looked at all this, his eyes were gloomy and desperate, he shook his head and whispered: "Why is this happening, what will it be......."
"Demon, suffer death!" The figures of the three flew over, and the magic weapon in their hands shone brightly.
Ling Yue shook up in pain, and finally fled into the distance.
Behind her, in the distance, flames burned, and the once house was completely gone, as if everything had been wiped out by the sea of fire.
"Smack!"
A faint and extremely strange sound came, and the town, the sea of fire, and all the scenes suddenly fell apart.
Under the moonlight in the forest, the foam that recorded everything shattered and turned into a hazy mist, which was dissipated.
Jiang Mingru had a long dream, he dreamed of Ling Yue's hundred-year vision, and dreamed that she and Shui Sheng once met.
I also dreamed of her heart.
It is more as if he has personally accompanied Ling Yue through the vicissitudes of life.
When I first woke up from a big dream, I suddenly lost my heart, and I was left with deep loneliness.
Jiang Ming suddenly raised his hand and brushed his face, and there was a trace of wetness, which was tears.
In the small pool, Ling Yue was still on that bluestone, just her appearance, but she was like two people with the innocent woman with a clear smile in her dream!
"Are you in tears?" Ling Yue asked softly.
Under her bleak face, Jiang Ming didn't have the slightest idea to hide in his heart, but wanted to show his truest feelings and give her a trace of comfort, but when it came to her mouth, there was only one sentence left, "You are a good person." ”
"But......." Ling Yue was silent, and after a long time, he said, "They all say that I am a demon who harms people, an alien. ”
"You're not!" Jiang Ming took a deep breath and said slowly, "It's their mistake!"
Ling Yue looked at Jiang Ming, his eyes were filled with deep sadness, and said, "You are different from them, I thought that all human beings thought that a monster like me was ....... It's damn it. ”
"That's the prejudice in their hearts, as long as it's different from them, it must be eradicated as an outlier, just like ......." Jiang Ming said and said, but he couldn't go on, only to see a distressing and sad look suddenly appear on Ling Yue's face, his eyes were also red, and he lowered his head and said quietly: "But why doesn't Shui Sheng understand, why does he have to treat me like this, is it that I am not good enough, I don't understand." ”
Jiang Ming looked at her infatuated appearance, but he didn't know what to say, and after a while, he held his breath and said slowly: "It's not your fault, it's him who bears you." ”
When Ling Yue heard this, his face seemed to become even paler, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he actually spat out a mouthful of blood.
Jiang Ming's heart also trembled, and he hurriedly took two steps forward and asked, "Are you okay?"
Ling Yue's head was slightly lowered, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but he was unexpectedly calm.
Jiang Ming looked at her, and his heart was also mixed, and comforted: "Don't be sad anymore." ”
Ling Yue didn't react at all, and Jiang Ming looked at her indifferent appearance, as if she remembered something, her expression became nervous, and said, "By the way, those three people are still chasing you, I'll take you out of here quickly!"
Ling Yue slowly raised his head at this time, but his face was deeply tired and desolate, he slowly shook his head, and his voice was as quiet as water, and said, "I'm going to die, I can't live." ”
When Jiang Ming heard this, his mind "buzzed", and the whole person was extremely stunned, only to see that in the mist filled by the pool, her legs turned into a colorful scarred fish tail at some point, accompanied by a bunch of white and flawless moonlight, beautiful and thrilling.
Ling Yue slowly raised her head, the moonlight sprinkled quietly on her body, looking bleak and lonely, and there seemed to be something flickering in her eyes, reflecting the moonlight like water.
She said softly: "It turns out that sincerity can't be exchanged for sincerity." However, if there is a next life, I still want to be a real person and sit on the bow of his boat......."
Jiang Ming looked at her in amazement, and his heart was filled with endless sourness.
In the secluded jungle, between the small ponds and lotuses, a crystal clear tear slipped quietly down the corner of her eye, and slowly fell down her fair face inch by inch.
Her tears hung in front of her, like gathering all the moonlight and stars, slowly condensing into a bead, glowing with a faint blue light.
Shark beads, the tears of sharks, but also heralded the end of their lives.
In the ghostly light, Ling Yue's entire body became hazy and dreamy, and her fish tail began to slowly disperse into dust, turning into a puff of light smoke and dissipating.
The mist in the forest was light, and the cold was suddenly strong, but there was a soft and whispered song:
"La-la-la-la, a light boat, the fishing fire is scattered, the sound is shallow, and the sky is nearly ....... evening"
The tune is tactful and melodious, and her voice is also very soft and soft, but Jiang Ming listens to it, but it is full of sadness and sadness.
In front of his eyes, it seemed that Ling Yue was sitting on the bow of the aquatic boat again, showing a clear and happy smile, and humming carefreely: "A song is too slow, hold hands and look at each other, the rouge aftertaste is light, the night is slow, the two people lean, move the boat to the shore......"
The voice gradually lowered, and in the last glow, Ling Yue stared at Jiang Ming as if smiling.
The shark bead floated over, and Jiang Ming took it gently, but his heart was indescribably heavy and depressed.
The wind swept through the woods, and Ling Yue's last smile drifted away, blending into the wind and fog.
Everything dissipated like smoke.
The green lotus flowers in the pond also withered and withered at this moment, hanging down in the bleak pool.
It's like a dream.
The innocent and kind woman in green disappeared completely, leaving only a tear, which was proof of her existence.
Jiang Ming looked at the dark blue beads in his hand, and felt that his heart suddenly became empty. In an instant, he experienced Ling Yue's hundred years of waiting, a short period of joy, but now he watched her pass away forever and never come back, as if he had been in his life.
Jiang Ming took a deep breath and held the shark bead in his hand tightly, and a faint cold feeling penetrated into his heart.
"Miss Ling Yue, I'll take you elsewhere. ”
He read softly, put the shark bead into his arms, glanced at Xiao Chi, and continued to set foot on the way home.
It's just that he hasn't walked out of the range of Xiaochi yet, and in the forest behind him, he suddenly heard the light of the three magic weapons, accompanied by the sound of whistling, and fell.
"Little brother, wait a minute!"
Jiang Ming turned his head indifferently and looked at the three of them, with mixed emotions in his eyes, but his tone was quite calm, and said, "Three, is there something wrong?"
The eldest of the three smiled and said, "Little brother, have you seen an injured woman?"
Jiang Ming frowned, "Woman?"
Seeing that he was puzzled, the man explained: "Oh, that's right, we are monks from the nearby Biyun Valley, and we came to capture the monster at the order of the master, that is, the woman. If the little brother sees it, he hopes to tell me where the monster is, so that we can eradicate it in time, so that it will not harm the innocent and kill it again. ”
This person's words are quite polite, and he has a decent style.
But a trace of cold anger flashed in Jiang Ming's eyes, but he still raised his breath lightly, forced it down, and asked in a harmonious voice: "Dare to ask the three brothers, how did that monster kill the innocent?"
The three of them noticed the strange look on his face, coupled with the vague ambiguity of the question in his mouth, they couldn't help but suffocate, and then frowned: "Little brother, what's wrong?"
