Chapter 138: Tampering with Memory
Although nothing was done at the Immortal Festival. But Ah Lu found that after the Immortal Festival, Shangguan Hao's attitude towards himself improved.
On this day, Rong Pei was called away by a junior brother on the way to deliver medicine to Shangguan Yi, saying that the master was looking for him in an emergency. Ah Lu happened to pass by at this time, so he took the food box and delivered medicine for him.
When they arrived at Shangguan Yi's house, Xuanqing Immortals and Shangguan Hao were there.
Originally, when she came to deliver medicine, Shangguan Hao would not allow her to stay longer, but this time he thanked her but did not send her away. In order to confirm that he didn't think too much, Ah Lu kept interjecting when Xuan Qing Immortal was diagnosing Shangguan Yi's pulse, and finally provoked her and Shangguan Hao to be blasted out together.
The two stood outside the door, and the cold wind blew at the right time. Ah Lu peeked at Shangguan Hao from time to time, thinking that Shangguan Hao, who had Dong Junqin's appearance, disliked himself so much, could it be a revenge for disliking Dong Junqin all the way?
Shangguan Hao suddenly turned around at this time and said to Ah Lu: "Senior Sister Lao has sent medicine." ”
In Rong Qi's memory, Shangguan Hao had never been so polite. Ah Lu was flattered and said trivial things.
The two opened the topic, and after listening to it, Ah Lu roughly understood what Shangguan Hao meant. Although Shangguan Yi grew up in Tianqing since she was a child, she has been living in the spiritual garden outside Liusang Valley for a long time because of her weak body, so she is no different from a deep boudoir woman. Maybe it was okay when she was a child, but now that she is older, some of her daughters' thoughts will not tell Shangguan Hao, and they are even more ashamed to tell Rong Pei.
can look at the entire Tianqing, and the only female disciple who can afford to look at them, and say a word or two to them, is Rong Qi. So Shangguan Hao hopes that "Rong Qi" can be a companion for Shangguan Yi.
Ah Lu: "Why did Senior Brother suddenly stop guarding against me?"
Shangguan Hao chuckled: "In the past, I was not good, and I asked my senior sister to ignore the villain." ”
Ah Lu was embarrassed, she didn't blame him for anything, she was just curious why he was suddenly willing to believe "Rong Qi"? But his apologetic tone was really the same as Dong Junqin's.
It's a pity that Shangguan Hao didn't say much about it. It's just that in the subsequent practice, he gave "Rong Qi" some advice from time to time, and sometimes asked her to go down the mountain to eliminate demons together. The relationship between the two became closer and closer.
Ah Lu remembered that Dong Junqin had said before that the Bai Yuan Immortal in his impression was an elder who could always maintain humility and kindness in the face of people and demons and monsters.
When he was a child, he felt that this was kind and not in charge, and when he studied medicine, he thought it was a sign of rigor. It wasn't until after the death of Bai Yuan Immortal that Dong Junqin learned more about him, and he sighed that Bai Yuan Immortal's humility and gentleness were for the sake of not showing his face, and being quiet was for fame and reputation, and fame and reputation probably came from fear.
Ah Lu didn't understand it before, why was he afraid. But in Rong Qi's memory, after Shangguan Yi and A Lu got acquainted, they explained that when they first went up the mountain, not long after the Shangguan Mansion case passed.
Shangguan Hao escaped by sneaking out, but when he came home and saw the bloody scene, as well as his sister who only had one breath left, he was angry.
But the court missed the perpetrator. This can't help but make Guan Hao think that the real mastermind behind the scenes is still hiding in the shadows, and even said that he is in a position where ordinary people can't move. This is the first fear.
Later, in order to ask the Xuanqing Immortals to treat Shangguan Yi, the brother and sister worshiped under the head of Xuanling. However, most of the disciples of the Azure Realm were from families, and any of them could be the eyeliner cultivated by the mastermind behind the Shangguan Mansion case. This is the second fear.
So at that time, Aluna was so attentive, Shangguan Hao suspected that she was part of the secret plan. If this is the case, then "Rong Qi" and even Rong Pei's kindness to Shangguan's brothers and sisters is not out of sincerity, but has other intentions. This is the third fear.
After listening to Shangguan Yi's words, Ah Lu realized that he was not only not likable nor disliked at that time, but purely terrifying.
Alu: "Then why aren't you afraid of me now?"
Shangguan Yi: "Brother said that at the Immortal Law Meeting a few months ago, you offended Senior Brother Liang by speaking for the fourth son of the Huangfu family. A person who can open his mouth for the emperor to fight for grievances will not be a bad person. So my brother thinks I'm sorry for treating you like that because of our family. ”
Ah Lu was still happy in his heart, and felt that his kindness was felt. But Shangguan Yi's apologies made Ah Lu's heart empty. She is indeed not a bad person, but the affairs of Shangguan Mansion do have the "credit" of her Rong family.
That's probably how people feel. Before, the Shangguan brothers and sisters resisted her in every way, but she didn't feel panicked. Now that they are friendly with him, Alu has become an ulterior motive.
I don't know what kind of mood the real Rong Qi was in when he faced the Shangguan brothers and sisters during that time.
Seeing that the relationship between the four of them was getting better and better, Shangguan Hao and "Rong Qi" even joined forces to practice the formation, and Ah Lu became more and more worried. She pinched her fingers and calculated, Shangguan Yi would be seriously ill this year, and Shangguan Hao would take her to Camel Mountain. However, when it was, Alui did not know.
And the more this happens, the more unprepared it happens. Ah Lu didn't know if Rong Qi had forgotten something or if she had deliberately skipped this paragraph, in short, as soon as Ah Lu closed his eyes and opened his eyes, Shangguan Hao had already taken Mo Sheng out of the camel.
On this day, she happened to return from collecting ghosts with Rong Pei, and when she passed through Shangguanfu's hometown, Rong Pei stopped and wanted to bring some favorite snacks back to Shangguan Yi.
This man's mother-in-law gets up, and Ah Lu can't stand it anymore. said that he would bring some snacks back, but Rong Pei bought it according to the standard of purchasing New Year's goods.
Ah Lu: "Brother, you bought so much, Shangguan Yi has finished eating?"
Rong Pei: "It's almost the New Year, prepare a little more, and when the time comes, the master and elders and the same sect can share a little." Xiao Yi rarely interacts with people on weekdays, and always gives them some snacks, which is also ......"
Alu: "Shut their mouths? I said they can use it? With Shangguan Hao and me covered, plus you, the three most powerful people in the white character generation are covering Shangguan Yi, what is she afraid of?
Alu's words are a bit arrogant, but they are also true. But Rong Pei didn't think much about it: "Isn't it? Cousin, do you remember the first class of the Dao Fa, the elder said that there are three realms in the world, and ten thousand souls are divided into six realms. This is the case all over the world, not to mention that we are all mortals. What's more, now that the whole people are cultivating, how much is the difference between the Xuanmen and the Gongmen? Do you really think that when we enter the Tianqing, we will be separated from the family? The powerful class does not distinguish between venues, and you were born in the Rongfu clan since you were a child, these things ...... Probably not in your consideration. ”
Rong Pei's words silenced Alyu. One person cultivating the Tao is far away from the rivers and lakes, and the whole people cultivating the Tao will not be divided into rivers and lakes and temples. Is this a problem that the rivers and lakes are too small? Obviously not.
Ah Lu guessed that Rong Qi didn't think about it, but just thought about it before he wanted to leave: "The power of this family is like a fishing net, the net is too dense and can't be leaked, and in the end, it can only be a dead knot that can't be untied, and in the end, it's yourself who is hungry." ”
Rong Pei chuckled twice: "You think it's weaving fishing nets, but I think it's weaving." After all, you can grow vegetables if you don't fish, but you always have to wear clothes. The finer the fabric, the better, who dares to go out with only a net?"
Ah Lu couldn't refute Rong Pei's words. I have to regret provoking such a heart-wrenching topic.
The two of them walked in the peaceful town relatively silently with large bags and small bags. At a street corner, they met Shangguan Hao.
Shangguan Hao didn't expect to see the two of them here, and he was very surprised. Looking at what the two were holding, I probably guessed it.
And Aru saw a woman with a hat standing behind him. Although it was in his memory, Ah Lu still really felt a cold air. It was the same cold she had felt in Camel Mountain before.
Shangguan Hao saw them staring curiously at the people behind him, so he introduced, "This is Miss Mo, is it...... The doctor invited by the town of Heavenly Camel. ”
Moshang stepped forward and lifted the curtain. Ah Lu took a deep breath, this patriarch of the White Mei Clan was not only powerful in Yuan Ling, but even his appearance was far superior to any White Charm that Ah Lu had seen in Baiyun Palace.
It's no wonder that Shangguan Hao will "empathize and say goodbye", and even "Rong Qi" and Rong Pei can't take their eyes off.
But Ah Lu's is "stalking" in the eyes of the two of them because of his good looks. When she returned to the room that day, when Ah Lu heard the junior sisters mention the ink dress sourly, she realized that she didn't know what Rong Qi's attitude towards Shangguan Hao was, so she never explained the meaning of "Rong Qi". Now the entire Tianqing, including the Shangguan brothers and sisters and Rong Pei, thinks that "Rong Qi" likes Shangguan Hao.
Such a stunning person suddenly appeared in the guest house, and everyone naturally said that Lang Jun of "Rong Qi" was going to run away with others.
Ah Lu naturally didn't worry about this, she was thinking about whether to stop Shangguan Hao and Mo Sheng from going back and forth too closely.
According to everything I had heard before, the appearance of Moshang meant that the situation in the Central Plains had begun to change substantially.
Ah Lu did not rush to the guest house, but found a few disciples of the family to inquire about the situation of the Huangfu family, intentionally or unintentionally.
Sure enough, as she expected, during the period when Rong Qi's memory was not displayed, Xiguan Huangfu had already lost three generals in a row. Now guarding the city is the sibling sister of the third elder of the Huangfu family, who has fallen into a long-term coma, that is, the so-called third sister of Huangfu Li. And Huangfu Gravel should have been evil at this time, right?
This Rong Qi, important things are always skipped, is she unbearable to look back on the past or deliberately embarrassed Alu?
Forget it, it's good for her to be able to talk and walk around in other people's memories, and she can't count on more.
However, the few junior brothers who were questioned by Ah Lu felt that she asked strangely: "Senior sister, are you helping Senior Brother Bai Yuan investigate?"
Ah Lu: "Huh, what's the matter with Guan Baiyuan?"
The junior brother said: "Now everyone outside says that among the sons of this family, Senior Brother Bai Yuan and Huangfu Lili are the most prominent. One is a famous man in the rivers and lakes, a young general who has won three battles in a row. Moreover, he and Senior Brother Bai Yuan went down the mountain and met the prince of Huangfu before, and they seemed to have a good relationship. So we thought it was Senior Brother Bai Yuan who asked you to ask something. ”
Shangguan Hao and Huangfu Li have a good relationship? Could it be that they had a personal relationship before? It's not impossible, from a certain point of view, Shangguan Hao and Huangfu Li's situation is the same, and they can be regarded as two people who have the same disease.
The junior brother on the side saw Ah Lu's thoughtful look, and continued: "Senior sister, are you jealous of the peerless beauty that Senior Brother Bai Yuan brought back, so you also want to find a manly man? But once you look at the same dress, you are bound to compare. ”
Ah Lu rolled his eyes directly: "You think too much, and the two of them are not that kind of people." ”
Senior Brother: "Come on, Senior Sister, I heard that the Queen Mother intends to let you marry Senior Brother Bai Yuan." And all day Qingjing, who doesn't know that the two of you have a good relationship. Oh, if the two of you become a pair, and Rong Pei and Shangguan Yi become a pair again, then Shangguan Mansion can be regarded as finding a backer. ”
Ah Lu shook her eyebrows in displeasure when she heard this, she couldn't help but teach people a lesson for a while, so it was better to stay away from these people.
Back in the house, Rong Pei happened to come to her. The two went all the way to the Yinyang Cave, and saw Rong Qi lying on the stone platform, with Xuanqing Immortals in front and ink clothes in the back. The two closed their eyes, pointed at different acupuncture points on Shangguan Yi's body, and then exerted force in the air.
Shangguan Yi began to sweat, and his body trembled uncontrollably. Half an hour later, the two withdrew their hands and helped Shangguan Yi to lie down. Shangguan Hao, Ah Lu and Rong Pei came up, only to see that although Shangguan Yi was asleep, his face was indeed much better.
Shangguan Hao felt that his sister's body had improved substantially, and he knelt on the ground and saluted the two.
Ah Lu was staring at Mo Sheng on the side the whole time to find a way, and the Xuanqing Immortal saw it in his eyes and mistaken in his heart.
When they got out of the Yin Yang Cave, the Xuanqing Immortals left her alone, saying that they were helping to take care of Shangguan Yi.
During this period, the Xuanqing Immortal asked "Rong Qi" what he thought of Mosheng, and Ah Lu said bluntly: "Miss Mo is a good person. If Shangguan can treat her sincerely and not hurt others, I will definitely support her. ”
Xuanqing Immortal got her words and nodded with relief. But Ah Lu knew in his heart that sooner or later Shangguan Hao would use this emotion to take Moshang's life.
But none of that matters. Since Ah Lu can't change the course of things, she can only learn as much as she can about the truth.
Not long after Mo Sheng left Tianqing, Shangguan Hao also went down the mountain, saying that he was looking for some artifact. Ah Lu knew that he was trying to find a way to find the camel rock.
If it is said openly, the head of the Xuan Ling will definitely refuse. So Ah Lu asked Rong Sanyan to send her down the mountain under the pretense of "spying on" her future husband.
But not long after she came down the mountain, she met Huangfu Li.
When he saw him, Aru felt strange. A few days ago, Huangfu Li, who was still far away in the west to fortify his defenses, how could he suddenly appear in the northeast? Could it be that he had already received news from the Camel Mountain Stone?
How many memories did Rong Qi skip this time?
However, Huangfu Li was surprised to see "Rong Qi", and of course he was also surprised.
After Ah Lu greeted him, Ah Lu found that his master was not with him.
Hearing her ask about this, Huangfu Lili paused slightly, and then said, "The master died of illness a few days ago. ”
Death?
Ah Lu knew that it was not an illness, but was killed by the emperor. But she didn't want to expose it, but said: "Although it's not good to say this, the master-apprentice inheritance is sometimes the same as the family bloodline." Your master's illness may also affect you, so be careful. ”
Huangfu Li didn't expect "Rong Qi" to say this. But after his surprise, he seemed to smile comfortably.
And Ah Lu thought that he would be punished by the queen and Xiahou in the future, and finally fell into the matter of water hidden grass, sympathy arose in his heart, and suddenly cared about the affairs of the Huangfu family: "How is your sister?"
Every time Huang Fu Li saw "Rong Qi", he would be asked unexpected questions. He looked at Rong Qi and blinked, pretending to smile easily: "Sister, everything is fine." ”
Ah Lu nodded, originally wanted to leave, but he couldn't help but turn around: "Huangfu Li, in this world, the prestige and power status of any family are all nothingness that cannot be brought to the next life, and at most they can only recruit some tomb robbers for the coffin." If you can get it, it's good, but if you can't force it, don't be too persistent, so as not to hurt your own cultivation and harm other innocent people. ”
The corners of Huangfu Li's originally hooked mouth slowly lowered, and he said in a low voice: "Miss Rong, I don't want any fame and fortune here. Huangfu is a family of dead countries, and he only wants to survive in this life. ”
This life is just to survive...... Ah Lu's eyes darkened, she knew that everyone wanted Huangfu to die. She wanted to persuade Huangfu to look away, but she couldn't change the facts. Is it that she wants to tell Huangfu Lil that she will die, what is the big deal?
Although Ah Lu didn't understand why the living were trying so much to survive, he didn't hesitate to dirty his hands and black his heart for this. But when I think about the bowl of Meng Po soup in the ghost market, this is probably because they don't remember what happened after death, so they can't be as thorough as her.
Thinking of this, Ah Lu regretted a little that he agreed to let Rong Qi possess him. Knowing the fate of these people, she is powerless to change it, which feels really uncomfortable.
Alu: "Don't talk about that. How did you get here?"
Huangfu Li: "Oh, I heard that there is an artifact in Camel Mountain, and I want to come and find it." ”
Sure enough, it's come to this point.
Ah Lu remembered Dong Junqin's previous evaluation of the Shengsheng Stone. So he drew a scoop according to the gourd and said: "What artifact in this world can be hidden until now? If there is, it will have been dug up long ago." Be careful not to be deceived. ”
Huangfu Li laughed when he heard this: "Miss Rong, I listened to you." ”
"Me?" Aluk didn't remember that she and Huangfu Lili had mentioned Camel Mountain.
Huangfu Li: "I heard from your disciples that Daoist Bai Yuan brought back an immortal doctor from Camel Mountain, and later Miss Rong said that there was an artifact in this Camel Mountain, so there was an immortal doctor." ”
Hearing this, Alu thought back again, and she was sure she hadn't said it. Could it be that Rong Qi skipped this paragraph again?
No, although the memory is incomplete, the memory of the container has never skipped important things. If she had really said such a thing at the beginning, she should have recalled it in Alu's body now.
Don't...... A strange thought was born in Ah Lu's heart, Rong Qi's memory was guarding Ah Lu? Did it leak on purpose? Or did it want to correct Ah Lu's changes?
That's right. Human memories change over time, and what you remember is not necessarily true. And the older you go, the more likely it is to change.
Today's Rong Qi has been at least a few decades since what happened back then, whether it is Ah Lu's changes or her own mistakes, some discrepancies are normal. Who would subconsciously correct it?
The only people who can clearly remember everything back then are the bystanders. But this is within Rong Qi's Yuan Soul Soul...... Ningxi's demonic energy!
It's not Rong Qi who is correcting. It's Ningxi's demonic energy. No wonder she did everything the opposite, no wonder everyone was trying to persuade her to obey. This is the demonic qi in Rong Qi's body correcting Ah Lu. But if he can correct it, doesn't it mean that he has begun to control Rong Qi's thoughts, and even tamper with Rong Qi's memory?
Thinking of this, Ah Lu suddenly felt a pain in his chest. Then everything in front of me spun around. The nausea in his stomach couldn't be stopped, and Alu's whole person returned to the original top-heavy state.
Then, her eyes went dark, and the sound of scrambled voices sounded in her ears, both men and women. She seemed to hear someone calling her name, and someone else called Nanqin, and then an unfamiliar voice said that she was coming out, and the sound of waving a sword.
What about Dong Junqin? Why didn't you hear his voice? If something happened to her, would Dong Junqin have time to rescue her?
Aluk's mind was in a state of confusion, and suddenly she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. Suddenly opened his eyes, and in front of him was Dong Junqin, who was wearing a Azure disciple's uniform and holding a long sword...... No, this is not Dong Junqin, this is Shangguan Hao, and the other end of the sword is buried in the flesh and blood of "Rong Qi".
Shangguan Hao's eyes were red, and he glared at Ah Lu with anger and disappointment: "Why!"
Arishi trembled in pain and asked, "Are you ......?"
But before the words were finished, there was a spasm in Ah Lu's body, as if all the internal organs were entangled together, and his soul was about to be torn apart, and he couldn't speak at all.
Shangguan Hao: "You already knew that you were the queen! You just approached us with ulterior motives!"
Oh, it turned out that this matter was exposed.
Ah Lu trembled in pain, and he was angry from the guilt. Even if so, so what?
At this time, an unfamiliar force came from Alu's abdomen, and it rushed straight to Alu's chest, untying the organs that were twisted together. After a while, the wound on the shoulder also had a warm force, which was familiar and comfortable.
Ah Lu felt better, and what she saw in front of her was much clearer, and she said loudly to Shangguan Hao with all her strength: "Yes, I know." But I know what to do! Did I kill your parents and clansmen? Is it everything I planned! Is it because I was born in the Rong family, you should die for the crimes of the Rong family? Could it be that you have never killed anyone in the Shangguan Mansion? The person you killed in the Shangguan Mansion must be a capital crime!"
Shangguan Hao was shocked by Ah Lu's words. Ah Lu didn't know where he got the strength and courage, so he grabbed Shangguan Hao's sword blade and pulled it out of his shoulder.
No, Rong Qi's memory is no longer credible. She should have thought of contacting people outside as soon as possible.
