Xuan Shuying was suddenly stunned, probably because she couldn't imagine that she would be able to see her brother in this life. After a moment of silence, she raised her head and asked, "Do you believe me when I say it?"

Bai Qian smiled with relief, raised his hand and lifted the Longyuan Sword in his hand, and said, "It's okay, if you lie to me, I will bury you with them." ”

Xuan Shuying smiled bitterly, "That's right, I almost died just now." ”

"It's really easy for you to kill me, you don't need to guard against me. She added.

Bai Qian: "I know that Chochen also has a younger sister, but I have never seen it. He's mentioned it a few times, and he's never been at ease with you. ”

"It's not what they're used to, they're used to me like a piece of rubbish. Xuan Shuying's tone seemed to be disgusted and nostalgic.

The moon outside the window was also close to the West Mountain, and Bai Qian urged a little: "It's almost dawn, come with me, go and see him." ”

Bai Qian's light skills are among the best in today's martial arts, and an entry-level like Xuan Shuying can't keep up with him at all. In the blink of an eye, Xuan Shuying watched Bai Qian disappear from his eyes.

Standing on the grassland outside Liangzhou City, she looked around blankly, and could only see a bright moon hanging low in the west, and some faint stars.

She suddenly remembered that tonight was the fifteenth day of July, the day when the two worlds of yin and yang were connected in the legend, and the day when the legend left the soul with reluctance or unwillingness to return to the world.

A gust of night wind blew, and I couldn't help but shiver, and I don't know if it woke up an unknown bird, and a terrible chirp suddenly crossed the night sky, making people shudder.

Rao is Xuan Shuying doesn't believe in any gods and ghosts, and he is a little scared at the moment. She wanted to call Brother Bai twice, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a cool breeze poured in, and then listened to this silent night, it seemed that she would be devoured like a prey as soon as she spoke, so she thought about it or shut up.

Not far away, a figure seemed to flash under the dark shadows of the trees.

The nerves in her whole body tensed, and she focused her attention to the fullest, and she didn't know when there was a short knife in her hand, and she began to walk step by step towards the shadow of the Tibetan tree.

Holding her breath, she could almost hear the faint sound of the grass being trampled beneath her feet, and for a moment, she even heard the sound of dew drops on the blades of grass falling to the ground.

There was a very slight rustling sound between the leaves, and before he could think about it, Xuan Shuying threw the short knife in his hand towards the source of the sound.

But I didn't hear the sound of a knife stabbing into the trunk of a tree, nor did I hear the sound of a knife falling to the ground, and it seemed to disappear.

In the middle of her nervousness, she saw a person jump down from a tree, holding the short knife she had just thrown in her hand.

The figure of the person who came was a little familiar, and when she saw that it was Bai Qian, Xuan Shuying was already scared out of a cold sweat, she wanted to scold him, but she was pulled away by him before she could speak.

Between a few ups and downs, Bai Qian had already led her to a tomb.

This tomb is naturally not a mass grave, not only the area is vast, but also the monuments are too many to count. It's just that the size of the grave bag is inconsistent, and it can be seen that many people are buried together.

Xuan Shuying asked Bai Qian a little angrily and a little funny: "Brother Bai, you scared me to death just now." "Angry is that he almost scared himself out of his heart in the scene just now, and it's funny that Bai Qian still likes to play some child's tricks at his age.

Bai Qian listened but didn't react, just said lightly: "Someone was following me just now." ”

Xuan Shuying is not a stingy person, and after listening to such an explanation, he will no longer pursue it.

"Do you see who it is?" she was more concerned about who was following them.

Bai Qian: "The one you know is your life-saving benefactor." ”

Xuan Shuying: "Luo Qiufu?"

Bai Qian: "Yes, it's her. ”

"She expected you to come to me, so she followed me all the way. Bai Qian added.

Xuan Shuying: "How does she know?"

Bai Qian: "She's betting, betting that what you said is true." If it was indeed Wei Qichen's sister, she would definitely come to me. ”

Xuan Shuying: "Then are you getting rid of it now?"

Bai Qian didn't seem to want to dwell too much on this topic, so he only replied with a brief "um" and didn't say anything more.

He stood in front of a large tomb with his sword in his hand at the moment, silent in the white moonlight, as if he was dressed in white, and he was only one of the thousands of tombstones.

Xuan Shuying was infected by the solemnity on his body, and he didn't ask any more. Instead, he set his sights on the tombstones.

She didn't know many names, just as she didn't recognize the faces of many people on the battlefield of yesteryear.

After a moment of silence, Bai Qian began to walk northwest, passing through several tombs, and stood in front of a small tomb bag, then glanced back at Xuan Shuying and nodded to her.

There was no need to say anything more, she immediately understood what he meant, and knew that under this pile of loess, it was her twin brother who was buried.

But she couldn't even cry a single tear, why didn't she already know about such a thing?

When Xiliang's army had not yet retreated to Lingnan, she was vaguely aware of it when she was still tied up and guarded by them.

She had never seen her brother's death, but she was somewhat sensitive.

"It was a cloudy day, and there was a lot of fog at noon, and he left in the afternoon, as I know. I fainted and had a dream. Xuan Shuying's tone seemed to be just a bland reminiscence of the past.

Bai Qian was a little surprised, it was said that she had been trapped in the Xiliang military camp at that time, and it was impossible to know those details, how could she say it accurately.

Xuan Shuying: "I remember that dream, in the dream I was still young, but my brother was growing up, he made a willow wreath for me, which was my favorite toy, and I couldn't get tired of playing with it." He put the wreath in my hand and told me that my brother was going on a long trip and asked me to wait for him. ”

Bai Qian stood aside and listened quietly.

Xuan Shuying continued: "When I woke up, I was inexplicably panicked, I cried alone for a long time, and I suddenly knew that he would never come back. ”

Xuan Shuying: "When he left, he still took his handsome fan, he didn't even bring a sword for self-defense, how could he come back safely?"

Unlike the calmness when she first saw this grave, as she spoke, tears came down, and she didn't wipe it, just continued.

Xuan Shuying: "I thought that I had to avenge my brother, as long as people lived, there was always a chance, until I saw the Longyuan Sword in Xiliang." ”

Bai Qian: "You brought this sword back?"

Xuan Shuying: "Long Yuan is the ancestral sword of the young master's family, since I was a child, they have said that "the sword is in the people, and the sword is dead", I saw it hanging there alone, and it was used as a trophy by the Xiliang people to show off over and over again, so I knew that the young master was probably not there. ”

Xuan Shuying let out a long breath, as if she was spitting out how difficult it was to accumulate her thoughts.

Hearing this, Bai Qian didn't say anything more, and both of them fell silent for a while, and only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.

Bai Qian looked up at the sky, the moon was still so complete, it would not change in the slightest because of the separation of life and death in the world, and he looked at the dark mountains under the moonlight, they stood quietly behind this tomb, and he didn't know that they had stood for tens of thousands of years, and they had never changed. Immediately, his eyes returned to Wei Qichen's stele, and there was no name written on the stele, because it was just a well-dressed mound, and after such a tragic trampling, his body had long been missing, and he couldn't recognize it as him.

These Bai Qian naturally wouldn't tell Xuan Shuying, let alone Luo Qiufu, or even Xiling Ye, and he wouldn't say that the pain until he was the most thoughtful way he could think of.

Not writing their names is the meaning of Bai Qian, he only asked people to engrave their birth and death dates, not the same year, but died on the same day, this tombstone will one day be eroded by wind and rain, and their names will sooner or later be overwhelmed by more personnel in time, there is no need to force a name that cannot be recognized by future generations.

Xuan Shuying: "The two of us lost our parents when we were young, it was the mercy of the old man, who left us to raise us, I went to Xiliang at that time, and when I knew that I was going to marry the enemy, I was bent on death, and I saw this sword." ”

"The young master's family is kind to our brothers and sisters, my life is not valuable, but I still want to return the sword to the Xiling family. I don't know when she finally stopped crying, and her eyes became firm.

Although she has not mentioned half a word about her hardships over the years, even if she is as dull as white ago, you can imagine how difficult it has been these years.

Bai Qian glanced at her, although she still looked eighteen or nineteen years old, she was no longer the little girl who would only be coquettish by her brother's side.

Xuan Shuying: "My brother is gone, and I can't be a sister." When Xuan Shuying said this, her tone became very light and light, as if she was just saying it to herself.
