Chapter 616: A Promise That Spans Six Hundred Years
"What person?" A cold female voice suddenly sounded behind Aoba, it turned out that at some point, at the position of the door behind Aoba, there was already a figure standing there, looking at Aoba vigilantly.
Hearing that voice, Aoba's body trembled slightly, and then he slowly turned his head and saw a figure that surprised him very much, it was the leader of the monsters, the nine-tailed demon fox who had once competed with the clown.
"Is that you?" said Aoba's tone full of incredulity.
"Aoba-kun, why are you here?" However, when he saw Aoba's Nine-Tails, his tone was also full of incredulity.
"You built it, I mean, you're the creator of this Land of Trials?" asked Aoba with some eagerness.
"That's right, I built it. But now I want to know why Aoba-kun is in my room. The nine-tailed demon fox looked at Aoba with wary eyes.
"Is that your room? I see, I didn't expect it to be like this. Aoba froze in place, muttering some words that made the nine-tailed demon fox feel inexplicable.
"Aoba-kun hasn't answered my question yet, although you and I are not enemies, and I don't want to be enemies with you as much as possible, but if you trespass into my room without a reasonable explanation, I won't just leave it at that. The nine-tailed demon fox's body began to release a huge demonic energy, pressing towards Aoba.
As a result, the pure yang true qi in Aoba's body reacted automatically, penetrating through the body to resist this pressure.
But Aoba only resisted this pressure, without the slightest intention of fighting back.
The nine-tailed demon fox's aggressive demon aura at the beginning also slowly reined in after feeling that Aoba had no intention of being an enemy with it, after all, if it was not necessary, the nine-tailed demon fox still didn't want to start a war with Aoba.
On the one hand, this is because the nine-tailed demon fox still wants to maintain a non-hostile relationship with Aoba as much as possible, and on the other hand, it is also afraid of destroying everything in the room.
This room still occupies a high position in the mind of the nine-tailed demon fox. Especially the phoenix crown on the table behind Aoba, the nine-tailed demon fox was really afraid that Aoba would accidentally destroy the phoenix crown without scruples.
In this way, the nine-tailed demon fox continued to maintain the pressure of the demonic energy on Aoba, and at the same time it was not excessive, waiting for Aoba's explanation.
However, to the surprise of the nine-tailed demon fox, Aoba didn't explain anything at all. He just turned around and continued to face the phoenix crown, stunned.
The nine-tailed demon fox frowned, and for a moment there was an eerie silence between the two.
Aoba who was quietly in a daze, and the nine-tailed demon fox who was afraid of destroying the phoenix crown and held back his anger.
Until Aoba slowly stretched out his palm, a pearl slipped from the Qiankun bag and fell into Aoba's hand.
The nine-tailed demon fox, who has always been paying attention to Aoba's every move, found it when the pearl appeared, but he still didn't understand what Aoba meant.
Immediately, the nine-tailed demon fox saw it. Aoba stretched out his hand and put the pearl into the fist-sized void in the center of the phoenix crown that was close at hand.
The pearl was so tightly inlaid in the center of the phoenix crown, and the nine-tailed demon fox looked at this scene and didn't react to what was going on.
"I once said that when I won the battle against Zhu Chongba, I would inlay his most precious night pearl on this phoenix crown, and then win the concubine you, but I didn't expect that I would break my promise after all. Aoba's faint voice came, and there was a hint of helplessness in that voice. There's also a hint of trill.
So in an instant, the nine-tailed demon fox seemed to understand something. But as if he didn't understand anything, the whole person fell into a state of inability to think, and he was stunned.
It wasn't until a moment later that the nine-tailed demon fox finally reacted, and the demonic energy that was originally surging out of her body dissipated instantly, and the whole person looked at Aoba's back as if she was stupid.
Gradually. This back coincided with the back in my memory, and two lines of hot tears slowly slipped from the eyes of the nine-tailed demon fox.
"Your Majesty?" said the nine-tailed demon fox in a trembling voice.
"Aifei, long time no see. Aoba slowly turned around and said to the nine-tailed demon fox in a trilling voice.
"Is it really you, Your Majesty?" the nine-tailed demon fox still couldn't believe all the things in front of him.
"It's me. But it's not me. Aoba said with a sigh.
"What do you mean by that?" asked the nine-tailed demon fox eagerly.
"It should be said that it was me in my previous life. Aoba said with a sigh.
"In your previous life, Your Majesty, after you were reincarnated, you awakened the memories of your previous life? How is this possible? Ordinary people who have not undergone cultivation cannot awaken the memories of your previous life at all!" The nine-tailed demon fox still couldn't believe it.
So Aoba told the story of what happened to him, and briefly told the story of when he was defeated and was about to commit suicide, but he was rescued by Lu Dongbin, the ancestor of pure yang, and became a cultivator, and finally reincarnated.
Because it was only a general explanation of his current situation, he didn't talk about a lot of things, but even so, he could hear the nine-tailed demon fox sigh for a while.
"Okay, I'm done with my business, let's talk about your concubine!" Aoba said as he looked at the nine-tailed demon fox.
At this moment, the two of them were already sitting on the stone bench by the stone table in the courtyard, just like the position where the two of them sat in the previous life, but now the two of them did not hold chess pieces in their hands, but were just chatting.
The plain tone, like an old friend who has not seen each other for many years, chatting about some of their respective experiences after separation, and from time to time when they talk about funny places, they will smile heartily, they are so unrestrained, with a kind of freedom to see through life, no sadness and no joy, and some are just indifferent.
That's right, after the intense emotions that first learned each other's identities, the two who have experienced the baptism of time for hundreds of years, for the two who have already seen through the separation and reunion, although they will be happy because of the reunion at this moment, and happy because the original regret has not really become a regret, they will not laugh or cry to express their feelings at this time.
Just chatting like a friend, and a knowing smile when your eyes collide unintentionally, is worth a thousand words.
"My thing, as you can see, Your Majesty, I am actually a fox demon, just like a fox demon like Daji Baoxi. The nine-tailed demon fox did not shy away from his identity at all and said.
For the two now. It's not something to shy away from.
"So, you didn't have a simple purpose with me in the first place!" said Aoba with a smile.
"Yes, but then I really fell in love with Your Majesty. The nine-tailed demon fox glanced at Aoba and said.
"I know. Aoba nodded in understanding.
So this matter was revealed.,If Aoba learned about this six hundred years ago.,Then you must be very angry.,But now all I have in my heart is peace.。 Time is such a thing that it can easily make things that you once cared about insignificant.
It's like the nine-tailed demon fox's purpose of approaching him was not pure, if it was the original Aoba, he would definitely be angry.
But now Aoba, it is enough to know that the nine-tailed demon fox really loved him at the beginning, and as for what was the original goal of approaching him, what was the matter.
And this is also the reason why the nine-tailed demon fox did not dare to tell Aoba her true identity at the beginning, but now she can easily say it.
Because the young and vigorous Aoba would care, and now Aoba only cares about whether the original nine-tailed demon fox has true feelings for him. For the purpose that was originally close to himself, the current Aoba doesn't care anymore.
"I still sometimes think back to the beginning, thinking that if I could have followed His Majesty when His Majesty sent out the army, instead of staying in the Zhegui Palace to decorate the palace that His Majesty gave me, everything might have been different, at least after Your Majesty's defeat, with my ability at that time. It is enough to take His Majesty away and live a peaceful life. The nine-tailed demon fox said lightly.
"Maybe. But with my personality at the time, I definitely wouldn't let you go with the army anyway. Aoba said with a smile, Aoba still knows very well what he was like.
"But even so, I can secretly follow Your Majesty!" The nine-tailed demon fox became a little excited, it seemed that she did not think less about the original thing. Today is finally the opportunity to say these words.
"Yes, but there are no ifs in this world, if you had saved me, I would not have met Master, let alone the reincarnated me now. Aoba looked at the nine-tailed demon fox and said with a smile.
"yes. There are no ifs in this world, and it seems that I am still obsessed. The nine-tailed demon fox was a little excited just now, but once again calmed down, sighed and said.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, speaking of which, after I was successful in cultivation, I really heard of your name, but unfortunately I didn't know that the legendary demon fox was actually you at that time, so I missed it with you several times, and I never saw you. But even if I saw you at that time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to recognize it, as if your current form is very different from when we were together. At least I don't recognize you from your appearance, as for your breath, I was still an ordinary person at the beginning, where can I remember your breath. Aoba thought of the events of his previous life, shook his head and said with a smile.
"But I can recognize you, Your Majesty, if you appeared in front of me at that time, whether it was your appearance or your breath, I could recognize it, not like now, because of the relationship between reincarnation, Your Majesty's breath has changed too much, if it weren't for the fact that I have now determined that you are Your Majesty, it is really difficult to distinguish the original shadow from your breath. The nine-tailed demon fox shook his head and sighed, obviously regretting his original miss.
"What? can you still detect the shadow from my breath now?" Aoba said curiously.
"Of course I can, although I have been reincarnated, some things remain the same! When I met Your Majesty's current appearance before, I could detect a very intimate feeling from you, but at that time, I didn't think about the fact that you were the reincarnation of Your Majesty! That's why I didn't recognize you, but now that I know that you are the reincarnation of Your Majesty, and then carefully analyze your breath, many things will be clear at a glance. The nine-tailed demon fox said as he looked at Aoba with a glint in his eyes.
"I see, but nothing in this world is static, even if my breath can still find the original shadow, but many things are different!" Aoba sighed.
"Your Majesty is no longer the original Majesty, how can I still be the original me, six hundred years, there are really too many things that have changed. The nine-tailed demon fox nodded, agreeing with Aoba's words.
"But after all, there are some things that are hard to part with. Aoba reached out and stroked the chessboard carved on the stone table, as well as the scratch he had inadvertently carved.
"Yes, that's why I built this Zhegui Palace, everything is the same as it was at the beginning, but the people are no longer the same!By the way, Your Majesty, can I ask what that pearl is about?" The nine-tailed demon fox thought of the pearl that Aoba had promised to take from Zhu Chongba's hand, and wondered.
After all, Aoba had already been defeated, so how could he get the pearl from Zhu Chongba.
"That pearl is what I took from Chongzhen's hand before I was reincarnated! Although I lived for three hundred years in my previous life, I never sought to snatch this pearl in the past three hundred years, and it was not until I was finally reincarnated that I found that I still couldn't let go, and that pearl should be regarded as my last obsession before reincarnation! So I found a way to get it in my hand. Aoba explained with a smile.
In fact, I am the same as Your Majesty, I have never thought of seeking to seize this pearl of the Zhu family for three hundred years, because I have been waiting, even if I thought that Your Majesty was no longer there, but I was still waiting, waiting for Your Majesty to retrieve this pearl for me! Until when the Qing army entered the customs, I went to the Forbidden City once because I was worried that this pearl would be lost, but this pearl was no longer there. ”
The nine-tailed demon fox also calmly recounted the original incident, and finally showed a smile.
"So for this pearl, I have actually given up a long time ago, but I didn't expect that I finally waited today, and waited until His Majesty retrieved this pearl for me. ”
"It's been six hundred years, and I've finally fulfilled my promise, concubine. Aoba looked at the nine-tailed demon fox and nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty, you did. The nine-tailed demon fox also nodded, and his palm stretched forward on the chessboard of the stone table.
The same Aoba's palm stretched forward on the stone table's chessboard until the fingertips of the two touched.
In this way, the five fingertips of the two touched, and the palms of their hands also overlapped, looking at each other, smiling and speechless.
