Chapter 138: The Top of the Sea of Clouds

"Old woman, we can be said to be sympathetic. Yun Wuxian said, "If you seek death because of this matter, I will die a long time ago." ”

"Are we the same?" asked the old woman, "young man, I see that you are not yet twenty years old, how can you have a daughter of eighteen-year-old?" I'm an honest man, don't lie to me. ”

"Old woman, you are mistaken. Yun Wuxian said, "Naturally, I am not as big a daughter as you." But my lover is as old as your daughter, and she has been asleep for more than a year. ”

"Oh, I see. The two of us really have the same disease. I didn't see that you are also a hard-working person. The old woman took out a rope from her body, handed it to Yun Wuxian and said, "Young man, there is also a crooked neck tree over there, let's hang the two of us together." ”

Yun Wuxian looked at the rope in the old woman's hand, and couldn't laugh or cry. He originally persuaded the old woman not to commit suicide, but now it was the other way around, and the old woman persuaded him to commit suicide.

"Why don't you take the rope, young man?" asked the old woman.

"I'm doing well. Why should I die?" asked Yun Wuxian rhetorically.

The old woman smiled at Yun Wuxian and said, "Young man, you still don't understand love. Today, you're glad you met me. I'm not going to laugh at you. In the future, when you meet others, don't say that you have a loved one. ”

"Why?"

"You don't love that girl at all. I'm really sad for that girl to arrive. The old woman said, "To love someone is to go to the soup for her." And you, too, spared your life. It seems that in your heart, her life will never be more important than yours. You only love yourself, not others. ”

"You're not me, how can you say me so arbitrarily. Yun Wuxian said angrily.

"Am I arbitrary?" said the old woman sneering, "do you know that I am not seeking death for my daughter. I'm still for my husband. My husband passed away 10 years ago. Watching him die makes my heart break. I will also die, with my husband. Before his death, my husband repeatedly asked me to take good care of my daughter. I'm here for my daughter, and I'm alive until now. Now that my daughter is dead, I naturally have no reason to live. Do you see what I mean?"

"Are you saying that you are committing suicide now because you are following your husband?"

"You finally get it. The old woman said, "I won't let you stop me from dying because you don't know the joy of dying for your lover." If, you really like that girl. When that girl is unconscious, you should think about death. You can't be a pair with her in life, and you have to fly with her when you die. This is love. Young man, you are still young, you learn slowly. Later, when you meet other people, you will no longer have a lover for others. ”

"In your opinion, only death can understand my mind?" asked Yun Wuxian.

"Not in my opinion. It's your own opinion. If you feel that you are doing the right thing, you should do what you say. I'm afraid that you are doing this in vain. When you understand that what you are pursuing is a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water, you are thinking about death and following your lover, and it will be too late by then. ”

"Don't say it. Yun Wuxian took the rope from the old woman's hand and said, "I'll prove it to you now, I love Mu Rong." ”

Yun Wuxian came to the other crooked neck book, tied the rope to the branch, he stretched his neck into the rope, and said, "Old woman, I'm going to die, aren't you going to die?"

"Die, let's die together. The old woman also put her neck into the rope. She waited for Yun Wuxian to kick away the stone under her feet, but the old woman waited for a while, and she didn't see Yun Wuxian move, she asked, "Young man, why don't you act?"

Yun Wuxian got out of the rope, smiled at the old woman, and said, "Old woman, if I listen to your words and act." I'm really an idiot. ”

"What do you mean by that?" asked the old woman.

"If I'm not mistaken, you've been here for a day. You've worked hard for you to wait for me. Yun Wuxian said, "However, I didn't get what you wanted, aren't you angry?" ”

The old woman's face suddenly became gloomy. She said coldly: "How did you kid find out? This trick of the old body and mine has cost a lot of people's lives, how did you see through it?"

"There are two reasons, one, the smell of you. "When I smell you, I think I've smelled it. Therefore, I concluded that you were the Heavenly Demon who took away Mu Rong, and second, the story you made up was too far-fetched. You know, Mu Rong lost her soul and fell asleep. You made up the story that you also had a daughter. Your purpose is to rely on this story and win my sympathy, in fact, when you tell this story, I raise my guard. I didn't say it at first because I didn't know what you were doing it for. Until you took out the rope and asked me to hang myself with you. I just learned that your purpose is to kill me. ”

"The old body is underestimating you. The old woman turned into a beautiful middle-aged woman, she circled around Yun Wuxian and said, "I want to kill you now, and it is still as easy as a finger." ”

"I know. "However, you should also know. Since I'm here, I don't plan to go back alive. If you want to kill me, let the horses come. ”

"It's a man with backbone. The Heavenly Demon said, "You have come all the way here, if I kill you now, I will not be too sorry for you." You didn't just want to see Mu Rong. Let's go, I'll take you to see Mu Rong now. ”

The Heavenly Demon grabbed Yun Wuji, and the two flew for a while, and Yun Wuxian was dazzled for a while, and when his eyes could distinguish things, he saw that his body was hanging in the air, and there was a stone in the air, and under the stone were patches of clouds.

"Where is this?"

"The old man's home, 'the top of the sea of clouds'. The heavenly demon said, "Heaven on earth, heaven and earth." ”

Yun Wuxian looked at the Heavenly Demon, the Heavenly Demon's face showed a smug look, Yun Wuxian knew that the Heavenly Demon's words were a bit exaggerated, but the Heavenly Demon's words were not false, but it was this ethereal sea of clouds, so he had no regrets about the title of heaven and earth.

After the two of them landed on the ground, the heavenly demon entered a very deep hole with Yun Wutrace, the light inside the hole was red, after Yun Wuxian entered, he first felt a burst of dizziness, but when Yun Wuxian adapted, he didn't feel dizzy.

"What is this place?" asked Yun Wuji.

"'A Thousand Red Caves'. The demon said, "You were the first mortal to come here. Of course, whether you can get out alive or not depends on your choice. ”

"Do I have a choice?" asked Yun Wuxian rhetorically.

"Absolutely. "Everyone has a choice, and you're no exception. I'm a very fair person, I'll give you the chance to choose, as for how you choose, it's your own business. ”

"Say it. What do you want me to do?" Yun Wuxian followed the Heavenly Demon to the cave, and the Heavenly Demon took out a transparent cup and poured half a lifetime of red liquid into it. Then, the Heavenly Demon brought the red liquid to Yun Wuxian and said, "Do you want to drink it?"

"What is this?" asked Yun Wuji.

"'A thousand reds cry'. ”

"How do you explain it?"

"When I have nothing to do, I gather the dew of the flowers and brew them. The dew of the flower is also the teardrop of the flower, and the wine made by collecting the teardrops is the cry of the flower. So, I named it 'Thousand Red One Cry'. ”

Yun Wuxian picked up the cup, sniffed it, and reassured the cup.

"What, you're afraid I'm going to be poisoned?" the demon asked.

"Do you still use poison to deal with me?" asked Yun Wuxian rhetorically.

"Why don't you drink it?"

"I'm sad and not in the mood to drink. Yun Wuxian said, "Women are like flowers, and the tears of flowers are women's tears." My woman's life and death are unknown now, how can I drink women's tears. ”

"Strong words. However, I don't bother to argue with you. The Heavenly Demon said, "If you don't drink it, forget it." I drank. The Heavenly Demon picked up the cup and drank the red liquid inside. The Celestial Demon put down the cup and said, "This is the essence of every flower. How many people want to drink it but can't get it. You've wasted so much. It's really not a blessing. ”

"Now, can we get down to business?" asked Yun Wuji.

"Your lover Mu Rong is here with me, and Bai Ling is also with me. I can give Mu Rong's body back to you, but you must promise to do something for me. ”

"I promise to do one thing for you. However, you must return both Mu Rong and Bai Ling to me. Yun Wuxian asked.

"No, I can't. I can't hand over the white spirit to you. The Heavenly Demon said, "You are a mortal, and the white spirit does not belong to you." It has more important things to do too. ”

"Whatever you say, anyway, if I can't see Bai Ling, I won't promise you. Yun Wuxian said.

"You want to see Bai Ling? Okay, I'll let you see Bai Ling now. "The Heavenly Demon entered another cave with Yun Wuxian without a trace. Yun Wuxian saw Bai Ling lying on a stone bed, and Yun Wuxian hurriedly rushed over.

"Bang!!"

Yun Wuji's head hit a very hard object, Yun Wuxian touched it with his hand, and the thing was very hard and cold, like a hard piece of ice. The Heavenly Demon went in very easily, and Yun Wuxian asked loudly, "What is this, why did you go in?"

"You're just out there and watching. "Next, it's time to witness the miracle, you have to keep your eyes open and see what happens next." ”

"If you don't pretend to be a ghost in front of me, and you don't see Bai Ling, I won't believe anything you say. Although Yun Wuxian had a tough attitude, when he saw the strange behavior of the Heavenly Demon, his attention was instantly attracted to it.
