(a)

When the footsteps of the Great War are getting closer and closer.

The Ice Mill Courtyard welcomed an uninvited guest.

It was a rainy day.

The rain fluttered in the sky like catkins and never stopped all day.

"This rain is sick, and there is no vitality at all. Tang Xian stood in Wei Buer's room and looked out, then turned to Fuji and said, "I also want to sail the boat, so you can't be accommodating?"

Of course, she had her own thoughts—in the barracks, there were some additional military exploits that a monk could earn by driving a monk.

"One main driver and one co-pilot are enough. What are you making all the fuss about, there are other things to do. ”

Fuji said with a straight face. He felt that the rain was continuous, filling the heavens and the earth with a nostalgic atmosphere—he remembered the rain in Changle Village decades ago.

The team's internal ship-driving monk competition has ended, and to Fuji's surprise, it was Liu Mingxiang who won - the sky ray seemed to have a natural affinity for her, and it was like an arm command to control it.

In this way, Liu Mingxiang is the main driver, and Li Ran is the co-pilot, and it can be finalized.

As for Tang Xian, her struggles were useless. Fuji was even a little worried about when her anger would rise to her heart and burn the rudder on fire.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Li Ran poked his head in from the door: "Master, someone is looking for you?"

"Who?"

"I don't know," Li Ran paused, with a strange look on his face,

"She looks very beautiful, and she is dressed in the clothes of our Yunyin Sect. Oh, she said her name was Wan'er......"

(b)

Wan'er, I don't know when this name began, it became very unfamiliar.

So much so that the first moment I heard it, I had to search in my mind.

She should be in the main mountain of the Cloud Yin Sect, what is she doing here?

Fuji was a little curious.

"Call her in. ”

Tang Xian and Li Ran left very interestingly.

After a while, Wan'er came in through the door.

I haven't seen her for a long time, and her appearance makes Fuji feel extremely unfamiliar.

It's a lot prettier.

To be more precise, it should be much more glamorous.

Especially her eyes—deep, faint, and shining with a strange light, and when they swirled over, there seemed to be a soft, seductive voice whispering in Fuji's ear.

I'm pretty sure she's learned a certain powerful pupil technique. It's just that it hasn't been used against him yet.

Looking at the rich mana flowing on her body, it turned out that she had stepped into the psychic realm.

This kind of cultivation speed is obviously a bit abnormal.

It's too fast. You must know that it is also because of 30 years of practice in the sea of insects, coupled with all kinds of adventures, that he broke through the psychic realm.

He secretly used his mana, was clear-minded, and was on guard.

After Wan'er entered the door, she briefly looked at the layout of the room, and then focused her attention on Fuji:

"Long time no see. Her voice was visibly trembling, and her expression seemed to be a little agitated.

"yes. After this voice came out, Fuji himself was a little strange - how could he be so calm.

"How's it going in the Northwest?"

"Not bad. ”

"The way you look," Wan'er looked at him carefully, "you're a lot older than before you came." ”

And a lot more mature, with a certain indescribable masculinity. She couldn't take her eyes off her.

"Everybody gets old. ”

It shouldn't be just these boring pleasantries. I cope. If it's just a long-lost reunion between childhood playmates, it's avoided.

In Wan'er, he can't remember any good memories.

"I've heard about your departure. ”

"Hmm. ”

"I'm glad for you. ”

Fuji raised his head and saw Wan'er's gaze. Very sincerely.

(c)

Fuji suddenly remembered that a few years ago, before she came to the northwest, Wan'er had come to her one night to make a deal with her—she wanted to tell a secret about his life in exchange for him to help her solve a big problem. ①

When they met and parted that time, Wan'er specially told him that if he had the opportunity to leave the Cloud Hidden Sect, he would never come back.

Unexpectedly, she turned it into a prophecy.

As for her deals. Because she never wanted to say what the big trouble was, she weighed it again and again and did not agree. Only tell her that when she thinks he is strong enough, he will come and explain things clearly, and he will make a decision.

Wan'er finally found it.

Does it mean that he has the ability to solve that problem?

What awaits you next is Wan'er's series of questions.

"Uncle Master, they will definitely regret treating you like this. ”

"How is Li Dashuai treating you?"

"The senior sisters of the Ice Milling Academy don't listen to discipline. ”

"Senior Sister Liu Mingxiang once had a relationship with me. ”

"It turns out that Zhong Xiuxiu of the Yuelin Sect is also here. How are you getting along with her?"

"I heard that there is going to be a war, have you gone to Li Dashuai to arrange a safe position?"

"Ahh ”

Wan'er seemed to have become a chatterbox, involuntarily, slowly walking towards Fuji, chattering,

"You've been great before. I still remember when I was in the village, you once took me to the mountains and forests to graze and met the horned demon. I fainted with fear and woke up to find myself on your back. ”

"You're running so fast, like lightning. It made me think I was dreaming. ”

Her eyes flashed with a faint, reminiscent glow.

As if this moment is not this moment.

This place is not northwest, not in a humble house.

It was decades ago, when the Horned Demon had not slaughtered the village.

In the distant and warm Changle Village.

"At that time, I leaned on your back and felt very grounded. She murmured softly, her eyes slightly moist, "At that time, I was thinking, when I grow up, I must marry you, marry such a down-to-earth feeling." ”

"If only the Horned Demon didn't come to slaughter the village,"

Her body suddenly trembled violently, "The two of us may grow old together." ”

"It's not too late," she said, getting more and more excited, and as she walked towards the two, she felt the wet liquid rushing down her eyes,

"Take me away, I want to go with you. I know you like Zhong Xiuxiu, bring her and the senior sisters of the Ice Grinding Academy. Isn't it true that men can marry several? I can be a maid, a concubine, anything. I beg you not to leave me behind. ”

The more she walked in, the more she saw that she was about to rush into Fuji's arms.

But suddenly hit an invisible, hard wall, and the whole person came to his senses.

When I looked up, I saw Wei Buer's calm face.

"People should look forward. He said.

(iv)

Wan'er seemed to be poured down by a basin of ice water, and her heart was cold.

When I touched my face, I was already soaked with tears.

"I know," she said, "when I attacked you outside the Valley of the Puppets, I should have known that people will never climb up if they step into the abyss for a lifetime." ”

"Even if you set foot on Huangquan Road, there is a time to return to your soul. Fuji thought of Mu Wanfeng and replied to her: "It's just that you have to accept that there are some things that you can change, and some things that you can only accept from him." ”

Wan'er was silent for a long time, glanced at Fu Er deeply, and finally said:

"Do you remember the deal I made with you before you went to serve in the Northwest?"

"Hmm. ”

"The deal was canceled. ”

"Where's your trouble?"

"I'm going to tell you the secrets of your origins," Wan'er shook her head, "but you don't need to help me do anything. ”

"Why?"

"Last time, I told you that when you were eight years old, you had a terrible headache, and your father took you to be treated, and then your headache was cured, but you lost your memory for a whole year. ”

Wan'er said: "Among them, there is one thing that I didn't tell you - when you had a headache for the first time and fainted in the mountains and forests, it was me and Brother Liangzi who carried you home. ”

After she mentioned it, Fuji remembered Ryoko.

Ryoko used to be a close playmate to him, but it was probably when he was eight years old that he was taken away by wild beasts in the mountains and forests.

He couldn't remember the exact situation.

Because of the memories of those years, his mind was already very vague.

"When your mother saw your appearance, her face was white and terrifying. I still remember it vividly. After sending you home, Brother Ryoko and I left. Halfway through, Brother Liangzi remembered to leave the whip at your house and went back. ”

"I waited for him for a long time before I saw him running back in a panic, and he was very worried. When I asked him what was going on, he didn't say anything. Then, one night, he passed by my house in a panic, saw me, threw a stone into my yard, and hurried away. When I picked up the stone, I found that there was a folded paper tied to it, which said, "He saw a man with horns on his head in your yard." That night, Brother Ryoko disappeared. His father and mother went to look for him in the mountains and forests, but only found half of his flesh that had been eaten by wild beasts. ”

"Men or women. Fuji asked.

"Ryoko writes about - women. ”

"Is the note still there?"

Wan'er quickly reached out and pulled out a stack of origami from her cuff - old and yellowed, with traces of binding on it.

Fuji carefully opened the origami and saw the childish, crooked child's handwriting inside—I saw a horned woman in Fuji's house.

The handwriting is already a little blurred. It's a trace of time.

"Did Ryoko tell you anything more?"

"I know everything, I've told you all. ”

Wan'er said, looking up at Fuji - his face was still calm, and there was no wave.

If it comes to this point, Wei Buer can still keep calm.

Then, the second thing can also be told - she is sure that if Wei Buer wants to live well in this world, he must know about it.

She was once afraid that if she told this story, she would face the danger of being killed.

But today, she is no longer afraid of death.

She is even looking forward to re-entering reincarnation and ending a life of shame and suffering.

That moment may not be far off.

"I also told you that the night before your father and mother disappeared, there was thunder and rain, and the suburbs to the west of the village were not quiet all night, and the villagers thought it was the sound of thunder. ”

Her face suddenly turned pale, her eyes were empty, and she seemed to follow her own words and burrow into her memories.

"If you still have some impressions of Changle Village when you were a child, you should know that my home is at the west end of the village. That night, when I heard a rumbling sound, and it was a thunderstorm, I remembered that I had dried my clothes in the courtyard, and when I went into the courtyard, I saw a strange light shining in the sky in the west, and I poked my head out of the western wall......"
