"Can you tell me a little bit about your past? This question had already taken root in Long Xiao's heart, and it was as uncomfortable as a thorn in his throat, so that he would not vomit or be unhappy, so Long Xiao simply asked again.

This curiosity about the four seas actually comes from caring for her.

Sihai raised his hand and gently twisted his slender fingers, and the dead leaves fell off the branches one by one, flying away in a graceful arc.

"We are the same as the end of the world, we are the same. ”

"That year, the Zhang family was wiped out by the wind, and the Zhang Mansion did not leave a single living mouth, in fact, a few years before that, the traitors had already begun to prepare. ”

"First of all, they have to get rid of the Zhang family masters who are a big threat and easy to attack. ”

"And my father was the Zhang family's world at that time, at that time he was training in the world, subduing demons and correcting them, because he was alone, and naturally became their primary goal. ”

Hearing this, Long Xiao finally knew Sihai's life experience, as he expected, her father was really not an ordinary person of the Zhang family.

"That year, my father was conspired by a traitor on the way to collect demons, and was seriously injured and fell into the lock ghost cliff, they thought that my father had long been gone, but they did not expect to be saved by my mother. ”

At that time, my mother was collecting medicine on the cliff when she accidentally found my father hanging from a pine branch, so she took him home. My father was in a coma for a whole month, and my mother took care of her for thirty days, and it took care of her for a year before she recovered, when my mother was still a girl, so her reputation was tarnished, and she was disliked by her own people, so my father married her. ”

"Soon, my mother became pregnant, and my father was going to take us back to Zhang's house when I was born, but when I was born, my mother died in childbirth. Speaking of this, Sihai gently raised his head and looked at the sky. There were two clouds floating in the sky, like a pair of wings.

"After the burial of my mother, and the bad news that the Zhang family was exterminated, my father took me back to Kyoto, everything has no power to return to the sky, we are incognito, wandering all over the world. ”

"So you were named Sihai?"

"If the heart has no place to dwell, it will wander everywhere. Sihai sighed, stopped what he was doing, and continued: "Since then, my father doesn't talk much, no matter whether others understand or not, he will descend when he encounters a demon, and kill when he encounters a demon, never explain, many people don't understand, they think he is a murderer, and they want to arrest him into the official mansion, so I will help him explain all the way and take care of him all the way." ”

"Later, he took me to the temple of reincarnation, and I stayed there for five years. ”

"Reincarnation Temple?"

That is, the legendary unknowable place of Buddhism. Once upon a time, my father was good friends with the Buddhist family, and her home was in the temple of reincarnation. In fact, I knew he had the idea of escaping into the void, and it was only because of me that he did so. ”

"After sending me to the White Mansion last year, he left me and never met again. Sihai lowered his head, his eyes were a little lonely, and he muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "Perhaps, I was born to be an ominous person."

"It's the same end of the world. Long Xiao muttered a sentence, expressing his agreement with this sentence, and felt pity for the four seas in his heart. She has known her background since she was a child, and she has been running around with family feuds, compared to her, Long Xiaoan has spent twelve years in peace, and she has enjoyed twelve years of happiness.

At this time, Long Xiao felt that he was a little cruel, and forcibly reopened Sihai's scars.

At this time, it was sunset, and the afterglow was sprinkled on Sihai and Long Xiao's bodies, and the two of them stood there quietly, as if gilded with a layer of golden strokes, and froze into a very beautiful scene.

Sihai suddenly felt a strange feeling coming to her, everything around her seemed to become transparent, the trees around her were transparent, the houses around her were transparent, the furnishings in the house were transparent, and even the well behind her was transparent.

Sihai dispersed Zhihai outward, she saw the crowd in the surrounding streets and alleys, saw the sugar mud hanging from the corner of the mouth of the hairy child eating sugar gourd, and saw the black toes leaking out of the broken shoes of the beggar on the street.

Sihai looked at Long Xiao again, only to see that Long Xiao's blue was like a pool of water, no, it should be like a deep sea, Sihai also wanted to see more clearly, so he sank to the bottom of the sea, but suddenly he seemed to see a sea of fire, a blood-colored dragon in the sea of fire glanced at her, Sihai felt that Zhihai was surging, as if she was hit hard by something, and kicked her out of this mysterious world.

Long Xiao also seemed to feel that his surroundings had suddenly become different, and all his perceptions seemed to be strengthened, feeling the sound of insects by the wall, the sound of water in the well, the tremor of the wind blowing through the treetops, and the longing in the sea of knowledge.

It was a desire for the unknown, a desire for the future, and a desire for the world. Long Xiao suddenly understood the four seas at once, and understood the helplessness of losing her mother, the helplessness of wandering in the four seas, the helplessness of her father's departure, and the helplessness of survival.

He knew that she had opened her heart to him.

She longs for family affection, but she is alone, she accepts Long Xiao because she can find solace from Long Xiao, she wants to be strong, because only strong can she have those desires.

Sihai woke up from that mysterious world, seeing that Long Xiao was still immersed in that world, knowing that this kind of mysterious world was unattainable, so he quietly looked at him there, and couldn't bear to disturb.

Long Xiao still wanted to see more clearly, but he had no choice but to withdraw from the world little by little, and everything returned to its original appearance.

"You also entered that mysterious world just now, didn't you?" asked Long Xiao.

"I feel like I'm one step closer to Dong Xuan. Sihai put his hand around his wind-blown hair and said.

"It's wonderful. Long Xiao said in surprise.

"This is what we often call an epiphany, and when you really understand it, you will naturally break through the realm. Shikai explained.

"Are you about to understand it?"

Sihai smiled slightly and said, "How can it be so easy, how many people can't cross that threshold in their lifetime." ”

I don't know why, but now the relationship between the two seems to have become closer, just like two old people who have reunited, and there is less embarrassment in the words.

Long Xiao suddenly remembered something, rubbed his head and said to Sihai: "By the way, last night was really not what you thought. ”

Sihai's gentle expression, which was rare to see, froze instantly, and said slightly: "Perverted." He turned and went into the house.

Long Xiao gritted his teeth, slapped his head hatefully, and scolded himself: "I almost forgot about it, why did this stupid mouth come up again, I can't tell if I have a mouth now." ”

"Hey, Sihai, in this way, the two of us are not a few days apart, in the future, I will call you Sihai, it is too embarrassing to call my sister. ”

"No, call sister. ”

"Don't scream, don't scream, don't scream. ”

The night was like ink, the moonlight was like silver, Long Xiao took out the cultivation manual that his second uncle had given him, and looked at it page by page. Although the cultivation method was simple and clear, some of the tricks were extremely obscure, Long Xiao pressed his somewhat sore head and simply went to the backyard.

The night of the winter moon is already a little cold, and a layer of cool falls on the mottled brick walls everywhere, and the bright moonlight is reflected on it, reflecting the shining light, and the whole courtyard is illuminated clearly.

Long Xiao walked to the side of the ancient well, looked at the well rope that was swaying by the small wind, and his thoughts began to drift away endlessly.

It has been more than three months since he left home, and now Long Xiao already knows his life experience, what happened to Long Nian, the secrets of the Zhang family, the Bai family, the Dafeng family, and the affairs of the four seas.

In the past few months, Long Nian will naturally understand the affairs of the dynasty in the palace, know the positions of several major families in the court, and hear rumors about herself and her grandfather, she will even guess her life experience, and everything seems to be clear, but a few more questions have poured into Long Xiao's mind.

First, what happened to Long Nian before he went to the palace? If it is really because of the divine beast unicorn, as the folk say, then where did this unicorn come from?

Second, how did the man in black know his whereabouts, it is clear that he not only knows his whereabouts, but he also knows everything about himself.

Third, sending himself to the Bai family and Nian'er to the palace, is it forced by the situation, or is there something else?

In the past, the Bai family and the Zhang family formed an alliance, and the Zhang family was destroyed by the Gale family, and the Bai family and the Gale family were naturally incompatible.

It has been more than ten years since the change of dynasty, and if it is stable today, it has gradually returned to the peaceful and prosperous era of the past, but there is an undercurrent surging under the calm sea.

Long Xiao let out a long breath and thought to himself: "No matter how much I think about it, it won't help, now all I have to do is to cultivate hard, enter the cabinet, and then enter the palace to find Nian'er." ”
