Twenty-four, but there was ever a man who would die for thee?

"Yes, you're going to die—how can you stay with me for so long!" Fang Leying sighed, her voice as light and faint as a dragonfly dotting water.

For a moment, Li Jiqing felt that Fang Leying had changed. is no longer as stubborn, ruthless, and affectionate as when he was young, but he has become kind, sensitive, and sensitive.

Thinking of this, Li Jiqing grinned, "Ying'er—have you ever seen a chick?"

"Who hasn't seen it then!" Fang Leying squinted at him, with a stupid expression.

Li Jiqing stood up, facing the sun and spreading his arms, the wind lifting the ends of his clothes.

At this moment, Li Jiqing seemed to have become the dashing and wanton young master in Anyang Town, he waved his fist and said loudly, "The chicks always have to grow up, lift their plump wings and fly to the sky." During this time, the adult bird dies, and its companions may compete with it to fly higher than the bird that flapps its wings for nine days.

You are that fledgling, I am good, Uncle Fang is good, our existence is to achieve you. Don't worry if I'm not there, if I die, I will be the most beautiful star in the sky to accompany you. ”

"You just like to say some miscellaneous things, and you mess with my mind!" Fang Leying looked at Li Jiqing with a stupid face, waved his hand in front of him, and said with disgust, "Really, the sour smell of the sour book floating in front of me wherever I read!"

Li Jiqing smiled and feigned anger, "The wicked will sue first!"

——

Little did they know at the time that this conversation would be their last.

On the same day, after returning home, Li Jiqing fell ill, and the candle dragon took care of him.

Fang Leying went to see him this time, but was stopped by Candle Dragon on the grounds that he was seriously ill and inconvenient to see guests.

Another year has passed in the blink of an eye, and Fang Leying saw Li Jiqing again, his face was paler and old than before, which made people look unspeakably worried.

At this moment, he was lying quietly in an extremely ordinary coffin.

Because Li Jiqing died in Shushan, the aftermath was also handled by the head of Shushan Dao, and it was a simple fate. The empty room consisted only of a table, a spiritual seat, three futons, and an incense burner.

Fang Leying looked at the scene in front of him and felt desolate, if he died in Kyoto as Li Jiqing. That is to ring the bell to mourn like the Huangling, and it will never be as simple and casual as it is now.

"Jiqing!" he shouted, at some point his throat began to ache, and he spoke with a trill, "Is it true that you said that you would become a star to accompany me?"

He was answered by a silent silence.

"You said you would do whatever I wanted, didn't you?"

"You speak! liar—liar—"

Fang Leying shouted in a bit of a collapse.

"Don't be coy, Fang Daxian!" A voice came from outside the door, Fang Leying turned around to look, and what caught his eye was Gao Zixi, who was dressed in a cyan robe.

When he saw him, Fang Leying's eyes lit up, he ran towards the other party quickly, and tripped over a futon on the ground without paying attention, and after falling, he even forgot to stand up, and crawled like Gao Zi little by little.

Finally, just as he was about to catch the corner of Gao Zi's clothes, the other party took a step back and sneered, "What's the matter! Daxian's skill has regressed a lot recently! Can't even make the simplest shift decision?"

"Isn't your master the strongest pharmacist in Shushan? Please—find your master to save Relief Qing. Save him!" Fang Yuying didn't care about his ridicule, opened a pair of teary eyes, and reached out to grab the corner of his clothes as if he was grasping some more life-saving straw.

Gao Zixi's face was angry, he stepped forward and kicked him and roared, "You still have the face to call his name," After speaking, he leaned over and grabbed his collar and pulled him to the coffin, with a fierce face, "Look - see it clearly." My Highness has been harmed by you like this—you still have the face to call his name. ”

Gao Zi said as he punched him in the abdomen, his face distorted like a demon, "Do you know what His Highness said to me before he died?"

Fang Leying's face was blank, and a pair of eyes stared directly at Li Jiqing's pale face in the coffin.

"Don't squeak! Ha—— Fang Leying" he glared and roared, "Who are you looking like now! Why didn't you do this when you pumped his essence blood to destroy his spirit, weren't you very comfortable and proud at that time?"

"I was wrong! I was really wrong—can you—tell me what Jiqing said before he died?" Fang Leying finally drooped her head and pursed her lips.

Gao Zi was astringent, "Don't you feel very pale when you say this now?" he said and threw Fang Leying out, "Get out! out of Lao Tzu - don't appear in front of me." ”

"I-" Fang Leying's body was like a sack, and it bounced twice on the ground.

Then he got up and walked over step by step like Gao Zixi, saying as he walked, "Tell me, okay?"

Seeing this, Gao Zixian was even more resentful, he walked out of the mourning hall, put his two fingers together and a long sword volleyed into the air, and pointed directly at Fang Leying with a fierce sword aura, "Get out!" I don't want to be rough in front of the spirit, it's not enough for you to kill His Highness, but also let my Highness not be able to rest in peace after death?"

Hearing the second half of the sentence, Fang Leying's face stiffened and his face was ashamed, and then he lowered his head and turned around to leave.

——

Standing in the distance, Candle Dragon and Shu Pingyao watched this scene, Candle Dragon frowned and looked at this scene, "That bastard boy seems to have changed, not the same as before." Why is that?"

Shu Pingyao stretched out his hand to cover the light in the sky, and replied, "This day has changed!"

The candle dragon looked at the clear sky, and said in a bit of confusion, "Pingyao, what nonsense are you talking about, isn't this day the same as before, there is no change at all!"

"It's nothing," Shu Pingyao lowered his head and dusted off the non-existent ash on his body, "Senior, is it okay to spend so long with me?"

The candle dragon was silent for a moment before continuing, "It's okay. "With that, he turned around and left.

Shu Pingyao stretched out his hand to grab him, and said in a deep voice, "Don't run away! Some causes and effects can't be escaped—seniors! Do you really not want to get your memories back at all?"

The momentum around the candle dragon was steaming, the robe was windless, and an extremely heavy force shook Shu Pingyao's hand away; "You kid, you are becoming more and more presumptuous!"

Seeing that he had disappeared, Shu Pingyao sighed and looked at the lush trees around him with a sad expression, "Some causes and effects can't be escaped, including you and me." ”

On the other side –

Fang Leying didn't know where he was walking as he walked, the trees in front of him were verdant and the sun was excellent, everything was Li Jiqing's favorite look.

If this was the case in the past. Li Jiqing can always come out of a place at the right time and scare him with a smile, if he is in a good mood, he can pretend to be scared and frolic with him. However, this scene will never happen again.

He remembered the appearance of Li Jiqing lying dead in the coffin, and Wu's face turned white, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of a scene appeared in front of him.

His elderly father knelt in front of Shu Pingyao and begged Shu Pingyao to kill him, and even begged Shu Pingyao to take care of him. Then several long swords pierced his father's old body many times, and at the moment when the long sword entered the body, his elderly father was still worried about himself.

Everything gradually became clear, why his father disappeared for ten years and there was no news, why he couldn't see his father when he woke up, and why he entered the country quickly in the past ten years without thunderstorming.

He had thought it was because he drank Li Jiqing's blood, but now that he thinks about it, he is really stupid.

He has really suffered a lot of kindness in his life, and it is difficult to repay it.

After that, he returned to Anyang Town again, and Mengyueju had long since closed.

The old weeded maids and servants in the Fang Mansion were all scattered, and when Fang Leying came here, he found a strange phenomenon, that is, there was a courtyard in the Fang Mansion that was still very tidy. Pushing the door in, the old door creaked and rattled, alarming the people in the house.

A woman with a scarf on her head came out of the house and said in a hoarse voice, "Who?"

When he saw who the person was, the thing in his hand fell and the whole person froze. She rubbed her eyes fiercely and exclaimed, "Fang Lang, you are back, the slave is waiting for you so hard!" Meng Gu said and was about to rush up to hug him.

Fang Leying left as if fleeing - at this moment, he no longer had the courage to recall the past.

For many years after that, Fang Leying lived alone.

But the memories he had been trying to escape didn't seem to want to let him go, so he always remembered a few people.

A man who has held his hand for most of his life, his tall figure has become rickety, and he has used his thin body to block calamities for him, and he has paved the way for him with flesh and bones

A person was laughing in the pear blossom forest, wearing a red wedding dress and whispering "Fang Lang!" The person's appearance was no longer so clear, and if he looked closely, the person seemed to be crying.

A person caressed in the hibiscus tent, Fang Leying's face whispered a lot of love but didn't dare to touch him.

A person was silently accompanied by a heartletting, and all kinds of scenes crossed his eyes, and then disappeared, and then converged into a pale face.

He was shocked and angry, and the whole person seemed a little crazy.

Suddenly, a phrase exploded in his ears like a dry thunder on the ground.

"He's my son!"

A flurry of words sprung up.

"Ying'er, I like you!"

"I won't live up to you!"

"Don't you think you're a bit hypocritical?"

"I will be the most beautiful star to protect you!"

“······”

Many words came like a tidal wave, making his head hurt, and then he waved his palm angrily, and the huge wave of qi bulldozed the small hill on the side!

After that, Fang Leying disappeared-

At the same time, there was an amiable young Taoist priest in the small mountain village on the back side of Li Guo.

The Taoist priest had been helping others all his life, and in his later years, someone wanted to help him erect a monument and asked him what he wanted to engrave on the monument?

Qingying——
