Walk through the deep corridors year after year, and go straight to the deepest part of the villa.

It is quiet all around, and the courtyard is intertwined with the dead grass and the verdant branches of the ancient trees, presenting a strange scene of decay and prosperity.

Nian Nian felt something strange in her heart, but she couldn't say it, she looked around, as if something was wrong. The floor of the courtyard was covered with grass, but now it is withered. This grass is evergreen all year round, not because the climate here is suitable for vegetation growth, but because after the Tianhuo War, everyone and everything within a radius of 100 miles here were taken away by the Tianhuo and became the walking dead, this is a real ghost domain, not controlled by the forces of nature, and it will always maintain the appearance of that bloody night that year, the ghosts in the mountain villa, the grass all over the ground, the immortal ancient trees, and the silent mountain villa.

Nian Nian sighed, there seemed to be a flash in the air, slightly familiar and imperceptible, Nian Nian didn't pay much attention to it, she silently walked towards the door hidden by vines in the depths of the corridor.

For no reason, she took a heavy step, and every step was very hard and slow. Around her, neat footsteps sounded everywhere, step by step, stepping on the rhythm, towards a certain place in the sight. Nian Nian smiled lightly, yes, she wanted to imitate the scene when Wuxian came here back then, and feel his mood at that time.

As he approached the door, Nian Nian's heart suddenly tensed, and finally he stretched out his hands and pushed it open together.

The light that came into the eye was slightly dim, and there was no large expanse of emerald green rushing into the eye. The huge ancient tree was like an old man in the twilight, stretching out its slightly yellowed leaves as if stretching out its withered arms to tremble to welcome the children returning home, and tears fell excitedly, so the tender yellow leaves gently fell from the tree and quietly flew to the feet. Under the tree, a table and a chair were neatly arranged, a few books were placed on the table, and a teapot was next to it, and the water in the teacup had long since dried up.

It's all the way it looks every year, without the slightest change. But what has changed, she walked over and sat under the tree, although the leaves above her head began to turn yellow, but still lush, she stroked the still soft fabric on the soft couch, curled up, buried her head in her lap, the familiar sense of security enveloped her, and the feeling of sleepiness soon hit, and she gradually fell asleep year after year.

When she woke up, it was already night, and it was pitch black, but at this time she was very relieved, she felt like she had returned to her own place, even if there was no light, everything was familiar and trusted, she stretched her waist, got up satisfied, and wanted to see her sister.

Walking through the corridor every year, I saw my sister standing alone under the corridor, looking at the courtyard in a daze, holding a candle in her hand, the candle flame jumped, reflecting her pale and thin face like ice and snow.

"Sister, what are you standing here?" asked Nian Nian as he walked forward.

Zhu Mei was silent for a moment, pointed to the empty courtyard and said, "Look,"

Nian Nian looked along the place she pointed, empty, nothing, a little puzzled.

"The ghosts, the ghosts that used to live together in the villa, are gone. She said softly, "It seems that the whole villa is just you and me, and the clouds are gone." ”

At this time every year, I realized that there was no wonder that there was something wrong with the villa, it seemed to be much more empty and ruin than before, although those ghosts came and went without a trace, but they also lived here, and they could meet them when they came and went, and now it seems that none of them are gone, which is really strange.

Nian Nian pulled the corner of Zhu Mei's clothes, and said to her softly: "Sister, don't worry, it is possible that they are gathered in one place, we haven't seen it yet, besides, isn't my mother-in-law still there, if you feel uneasy, let's go and ask your mother-in-law." ”

In this way, Nian Nian and Zhu Mei came to the gate, and after a while, the mother-in-law came out of the darkness.

The night was as cold as water, and Nian Nian took the candle in Zhu Mei's hand and put it on the ground between the three of them, and all three of them sat down.

"Mother-in-law, has anything happened in the days we've been away?"

"Why do you ask?"

Nian Nian and Zhu Mei glanced at each other, and Nian Nian asked, "Since we came back, I have felt that there is something strange in the villa, how has the grass in the courtyard withered? how have the ancient trees in my courtyard lost their leaves? Also, where have all the ghosts in the villa gone? Why haven't we seen any of them." ”

The mother-in-law sighed, "You've been careful to observe, but there's nothing strange about it. She looked up at Zhu Mei: "Miss was the owner of this villa, this villa should have been destroyed when the heavenly fire came to the world, but the heavenly fire was attracted by the young lady, and the young lady did not die, and the mountain villa became a ghost domain, and everything remained the same as before that day, accompanying the young lady." The young lady left the villa, and the place, which had not existed in the world, slowly began to return to its original form. ”

"And what about the ghosts, why are the ghosts gone?" asked Nian Nian.

"Nian Nian, don't you know where they have gone?" the mother-in-law's words were also questionable.

Nian Nian was startled, turned his wrist and pointed to his nose and asked blankly, "How would I know?" ”

When the mother-in-law heard this, she sighed again: "Hey, if you don't know, forget it, it's not a big deal, the ghosts in this villa have grievances before they are alive, and they can only be trapped here, and now they are taken away from here, and they can be reincarnated, and it is not known." ”

"They are all resentful spirits, how can they be reincarnated, if they are in the world, will they not be destroyed?" Zhu Mei frowned, quite worried in her heart.

"Who took it away, who has been here?" but Nian Nian heard that his mother-in-law's words did not mean it explicitly.

"It's the boy who came to pick you up last time, it should have been two months ago. ”

"Brother Wuwu!"

"Master?"

Nian Nian and Zhu Mei exclaimed at the same time.

"Why did Master do this? Did he say anything?"

"He didn't say anything," the mother-in-law smiled bitterly, "and if he really had something important, he wouldn't tell me." ”

"Sister, don't ask, Brother Wuwu is really forced to do this. ”

Mother-in-law and Zhu Mei didn't know why, but she did immediately understand the meaning of Wuwu. At that time, it was Chuanshan who was besieged, and Brother Wuxian suddenly left Chuanshan, presumably coming here, and then on the way back, he was poisoned by Xuanyue's design, delaying time. Brother Wuyan's intention must be to confuse those immortals with the resentment of these resentful spirits, and then take advantage of the chaos to break up their alliance, but suddenly, when he returned to Chuanshan, he had been cornered by Yu Yue, and he was forced to change his plan. Because his spiritual power increased greatly after he was reborn, he wanted to forcibly absorb those grievances by Zhu Mei.

Thinking of this, Nian Nian couldn't help but be stunned, and the fear froze her body. He was a variable in that big battle, and Brother Wuwu didn't expect it, but what about after that? Was he really forced to kill himself when he had no way out, so that Zhu Mei could give up his grievances?

Someone next to her pushed her, and she came to her senses every year and found that she was snuggling in Zhu Mei's arms. She realized that this was impossible, and Chen Yin had also said that without the danger of the soldiers, he himself could not be sure whether he would really be able to come back from the dead when the spirit body was completely destroyed, and how could he predict that her spiritual power would be so high that even the original resentment on Zhu Mei's body could not be covered, and then let Zhu Mei take the resentment and increase her resentment?

Nian Nian sighed, this was the first time she doubted that she was innocent, and she felt a little guilty in her heart. After that eavesdropping, she did have some complaints, she wholeheartedly hoped to resolve her sister's knot, help her purify her grievances, and become a normal person as soon as possible, without having to embrace a miserable past life, but her brother helped her and deceived her at the same time. Although he did so to protect her, the price he paid was too great, and those ghosts were poor people, and they couldn't imagine their destruction every year.

Maybe this time, it's not just about complaining, it's about disappointment. Even when Wu Wu was about to kill her, she had never been disappointed in him like this. Every year from six years ago to Sichuan Mountain, I heard them say how the innocent is how to be fair, the benevolent and loyal immortals, the heart is deeply righteous, but this time innocently hurt so many ghosts, they are forever trapped in this mountain villa will never be a disaster to the world, but without the slightest fault by the innocent cruel erasure, is this also a great righteousness?

"Nian Nian, you have been very weird lately, you tell my sister, why do you have to leave Chuanshan?"

Nian Nian looked at her in a daze, and lowered his eyes again, "Sister, you don't know something." The news of you in Chuanshan was revealed for some reason, the fairy world factions besieged Chuanshan, at that time, Brother Wuxian was not in Chuanshan, and there was no ability to block those immortals up and down the valley, so I recklessly rushed out of the enchantment and said that I was the resentful spirit they were looking for, who knew that I was plotted by those immortals, and Brother Wuwu first pretended to kill me in front of the immortals in order to save me, and then took me back to Chuanshan and recuperated in the spiritual spring. Now, I am a dead person to the entire immortal world, so I can't stay in Chuanshan anymore, that will affect Brother Wuxian and Chuanshan Langu. “

Zhu Mei could see the sadness and reluctance in her eyes, and stroked her back distressedly: "Every year, it's because of me that you suffer these things." "No, sister, don't blame yourself, it's all the fault of the year, it's me who shouldn't be so reckless, it's me who didn't take good care of you, it was I who didn't let you have such a thing, it's because I didn't know that you had such sorrow in your heart, so I didn't notice that you stepped into such a dangerous situation." "It's all because of me that you will come to Chuanshan and Lan Valley, and there will be today's calamity. Thinking silently every year.

"You know it all. Zhu Mei's tone trembled like fallen leaves in the wind.

"Yes, I know that. Tears slipped down every year, "I know about that, sister, I will definitely help you purify those resentments, you let go of the resentment in your heart and be a normal person again." “

The mother-in-law sighed at this time, "If it is so easy, how did it become what it is now?"

Looking at her year after year, there were still bright tears on her face. "What does mother-in-law mean? Even if it is not easy, I am willing to try my best, as long as I can get my sister rid of her resentment, purify her body of evil energy, and expel evil spirits, I can do anything!" "At the end of the killing four hundred years ago, the young lady cursed herself, and sacrificed the soul of this life to draw down the heavenly fire and forcibly destroy the demons. Her body was tempered by the heavenly fire, and her soul was sealed and burned by the heavenly fire, so she could not be reincarnated, did not belong to the Three Realms, and became an evil spirit over time. It's not easy to unravel this curse," the mother-in-law shook her head, "but I think there are some powerful beings in the mortal world who can see into the heavens, and there may be ways to undo the curse." Besides, the bell must be tied to the bell, although the demon fox was punished by Tianhuo, but it is not an ordinary murderous thing, it must be reincarnated in a lifetime, you go to find it, if the young lady is enough to lift her heart knot, willing to let go of hatred, but also let the resentment disperse, return to the Three Realms. “

Nian Nian burst into tears and smiled, "In that case, let's leave here as soon as possible." My sister and I slipped out of the mountains and mountains, and if they found out, we would definitely be arrested. We're going to the mortal world to find the reincarnated demon fox, but my sister and I are not familiar with the mortal world, where can we find it?"

The mother-in-law thought for a moment, "I don't know about this, but does the young lady know that if there is a demon, there must be a demon mark on him?" "Yes, I know." Zhu Mei was still trembling uncontrollably, and she could only reflexively hold her in her arms. "I've seen his sigils. After saying this, Zhu Mei closed her eyes, as if she couldn't bear to think about that miserable scene again.

Nodding his head year after year, the mother-in-law continued, "No matter how he is reincarnated, the demon seal will not change, and besides, he will be punished by heavenly fire, and there will inevitably be traces on his body, with these two points, even if you have no clue, there must be clues, if you are in a hurry, it is better to set off early tomorrow morning." "But you must be careful in everything on this trip, you have never experienced anything in the mortal world, and two people must not be careless. You have been in Chuanshan for so long, you must know some spells, remember, don't use them until you have to, it will cause you unnecessary trouble. “

I remember many of my mother-in-law's instructions every year, and this night passed like this.

Kawayama was also silent at this time.

In the Frost Palace, in front of the flickering candle flame, the three of Chenyin, Yu Ye and Feng Yuyang were silent with each other. "You said that you left Chuanshan with your little sister every year?" Feng Yuyang leaned lazily on the back of the chair. "Zhu Mei is very weak at the moment, and it is impossible for her to leave alone, so she was taken away every year. "Can you find out where they went?" Yu Ye asked. "I went out of Chuanshan from the moment I found out, only to find out that they had once rested at a fisherman's house on the east shore of the Maohai Sea and then left. Their breath has a clear point, presumably back to the place where they lived before coming to Chuanshan, I followed and chased for a while but found that the breath was cut off, and I had no way to follow it, so I came back. “

Yu Ye thought for a while, "If it was for them to hide their own breath every year, they wouldn't have started halfway, neither of them had ever been involved in the world, and they wouldn't have thought so thoroughly." He looked up at Chenyin, "You suspect someone is hiding their hungry whereabouts for them." “

"Yes, I don't think they're going to be caught, so who will help them hide their breath?" "It's Master. Feng Yuyang said casually. "What are you talking about, Master, how is this possible?" asked Chen Yin.

"Senior brother, don't you understand? No one took them away, which means that they left by themselves, and the master values Nian Nian and the little junior sister so much, and he does not hesitate to set himself and Chuanshan against the entire fairy world to protect the two of them, do you think that if it weren't for Master's instructions, they would have been able to leave Chuanshan without knowing it? When did my Chuanshan become a place where I could leave and come when I said. Moreover, Master let you discover their traces and let you follow them for a while before cutting off your whereabouts, just to tell you that these are under his control, so that you don't have to worry, and at the same time, it is also to remind you not to chase them anymore. "But you, you're just guessing, what if something happens to Nian Nian and Zhu Mei because of this?"

Feng Yuyang shrugged his shoulders, "If you don't believe it, you can ask Master now if he thinks so." Anyway, Master is already in retreat, he said, and no one will be seen during his retreat. “

"In that case, that must be what Master meant. Yu Ye also nodded, "Six years ago, it was the master who brought the two of them into Chuanshan, and now that the master is in retreat and is not allowed to disturb, no one knows where they used to live, which obviously tells us not to chase them, just let the two of them leave." "But Zhu Mei's health is very bad, and if she leaves Chuanshan, I'm afraid she won't last long." “

"Senior brother, there are years by her side, this girl is not what it used to be, you can rest assured. "Speaking of which, why did the two of them leave Kawayama without warning?" Yu Ye asked the crucial question.

Chen Yin's gaze was a little evasive, his eyes were full of worry and doubt, but Feng Yuyang sat obliquely, and gently shook the cup in his hand, "Senior Brother Night, your question is sharp, presumably Senior Brother may not be able to answer it." However, I can guess why. His eyes swept away with playfulness and teasing, and he bowed his head and drank the contents of the cup.
