Tan Rui actually could have stayed in Northern Xinjiang to be the apprentice of the Red Willow Demon, but she died because she wanted to accompany Liu Dong on the last journey.
"Brother Dong is only forty years old. If you really go to Northern Xinjiang with me, you will never be able to come back. I can't do this. So, please, please never tell me about this matter and the fact that I will lose my mind."
he."
Tan Rui said softly: "I'm afraid he will feel uncomfortable if he finds out."
I looked at Tan Rui, not knowing what to say. For a long time, I could only nod slightly.
I felt a little sour in my heart.
"Is there anything else you want me to help you with?" I asked Tan Rui.
"This red willow branch."
Tan Rui took out a red willow branch from her body. The slender big red flower spikes were still fresh and fully decorated on the branch.
"I would like to trouble you to help me return this red willow branch to the Red Willow Immortal."
Tan Rui handed the small piece of red willow branch to my hand, and said with a hint of begging: "When the Great Immortal Hongliu gave me this piece of red willow branch, she told me that there was a trace of her spiritual energy left on it.
She said that if I couldn't burn this red willow branch in advance to summon her to pick me up, she would give this red willow branch to a suitable person for safekeeping. When my soul is gone, she will follow this spiritual energy to come and take it away.
.
You know, what happened to me is too weird, the fewer people know about it, the better, and I can't leave it with Brother Dong, so I can only trouble you."
I silently took the small piece of red willow branch that Tan Rui handed over. I sighed in my heart and couldn't help but persuade him again: "Do you want to think about it again and ask Mr. Liu for his own opinion?"
"No!"
Tan Rui shook his head sadly, "Master Hu Ling, in my current situation, I can no longer stay with Brother Dong. Fortunately, he is mentally prepared now. Can you take me with you later?"
, take me to a place where it won’t affect anyone..."
"No, I don't agree!"
Tan Rui was only halfway through what she said when the door was opened from the outside and Liu Dong rushed in with tears on his face.
Lu Xiaohong followed Liu Dong into the house and shrugged helplessly at me.
It turned out that they had been outside the door and Liu Dong had heard everything Tan Rui said to me.
Tan Rui, who was sitting on the sofa opposite me, looked at the people who rushed in in surprise, her eyes widened, and she shrank her shoulders uneasily.
Liu Dong walked up to Tan Rui, knelt on one knee on the ground, held Tan Rui's hands tightly and said, "Ruirui, how can you be so cruel? There is a way to save you, but you refuse to tell me?"
"Brother Dong, I..." Tan Rui's eyes flowed with light red liquid.
"The Great Red Willow Immortal is right. I should never have let you travel to that place alone."
Liu Dong looked at Tan Rui and said, "I've already made a mistake once, how can you have the heart to leave me like this and let me make a mistake a second time without knowing it?
I am willing to go to Northern Xinjiang with you and be the slave of the Hongliu Immortal. Isn’t it just a coolie for twenty years? It’s really nothing special!
We can work together to help more souls like you who lost their lives in that place, right?"
Tan Rui looked at Liu Dong blankly and shook his head desperately. More and more red liquid flowed out of his eyes, and the color gradually became darker.
It was two tears of blood.
Liu Dong raised his hand without disdain, pulled the cuff of his white shirt and gently wiped it off for Tan Rui.
"Ruirui, I love my job, want to be a good official, and want to be promoted, but these are nothing compared to being with you. If I can't be with you, no matter how many achievements I have made,
, it’s not interesting, because no one will share these joys with me anymore.”
Liu Dong looked at Tan Rui and said emotionally.
This is the best love story I have ever heard.
Unexpectedly, Liu Dong, who looks like just a greasy uncle, still has this deep love in his heart.
"But if you really go to Northern Xinjiang with me, what will happen to your son? He is still in college!" Tan Rui's voice was trembling.
"He has grown up, not a child, and can take care of himself. What's more, when we go to Northern Xinjiang, we don't need money anymore. All our savings over the years have been left to him. He will definitely take good care of himself and will not let him go.
We are disappointed." Liu Dong said.
"I will give you a week off every year. You can use this holiday to get together with your son once a year!"
A cold voice suddenly came from outside the door, accompanied by a fragrant and elegant fragrance.
In just an instant, the nauseating corpse smell in the room was completely dispelled by the fragrant and elegant aroma.
A woman in a bright red dress slowly walked in from outside. The red veil covered most of her face, revealing only a pair of dark, cold eyes and half of her tall nose.
With black hair and white skin, paired with the ruby hair ornament on her head and the gemstone bracelet on her hand, she looked even more gorgeous.
She has a faint demonic aura about her, but it's so light that you can't even tell it if you're not careful.
This is a sign of extremely high cultivation.
Judging from this woman's aura, her cultivation level is not lower than Bai Yao's, or even higher.
This woman should be the red willow demon Tan Rui mentioned.
With such a high level of cultivation, it is no wonder that she can seal Tan Rui's soul into her dead body and send her back to Xiangxi from the northern Xinjiang thousands of miles away in an instant.
After the red willow demon entered the room, his eyes swept around Lu Xiaohong and me, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that you would actually be together in this life, congratulations!"
He said congratulations, but there was not much emotion, and it was more perfunctory.
Just saying it casually.
It seems that this red willow demon is no stranger to me and Lu Xiaohong.
"Da, Daxian, why are you here? I didn't burn the red willow branch you gave me."
The originally elegant Tan Rui was as nervous as a helpless child in front of the Red Willow Demon.
Red Willow Demon did not answer Tan Rui's words, but walked to the sofa and sat down with an elegant posture.
She stared at Liu Dong with cold eyes and asked, "Are you really willing to accompany your wife and me to Northern Xinjiang and be my slave for twenty years?"
Liu Dong looked up at the red willow demon and said firmly: "As long as I can save her, I am willing!"
"Northern Xinjiang does not have the feasting and entertainment you have here. Moreover, even if she survives her death, you will not be able to come back twenty years later. You must stay in Northern Xinjiang forever. Are you willing?" Red Willow Demon asked again.
"I do!"
Liu Dong answered readily, without even a second's hesitation.
Red Willow Demon stared into Liu Dong's eyes, and his voice became colder and colder, "I won't treat you well. If you make me unhappy even a little bit, I will kill you at any time!"
When she spoke, it was as if there was a dagger hidden in her eyes, ready to fly out and cut Liu Dong's neck at any time.
