"Shuangyue Lord is in the north of the dreamland..."
Lin Shanhai repeated it.
Mu Wan was half-lying on the bed, holding a cup with both hands. The medicine inside was changed, and it was no longer for external application, but for oral administration. She had been given medicine before, but after all, she hadn't eaten for several days, and her whole stomach was not feeling right.
.She needs a period of recuperation and rehabilitation, after all, the whole body bones will be rusted.
But she didn't want to waste a moment.
"We'll leave tomorrow."
Shanhai took the cup from her hand and filled it with more water.
"Xueyan Valley is indeed in the northwest... Regardless of where Lord Shuangyue is, what's the point of looking for him?"
Shanhai returned the warm cup to her. Shi Wuqi answered:
"Are you going to unsheath your sword?"
They all know what this sentence means. The moment the Demon-Sealing Blade is unsheathed, it not only means that this piece of cold metal will see the light of day again, but it also symbolizes that Lord Shuangyue's identity will be subverted.
"Well, you don't want to solve the problem for your master, right? Did he promise to help Mr. Shuangyue undo the curse back then..."
"Even at the expense of yourself? Stop joking."
Shi Wuqi interrupted Dai Luan because he didn't want his words to be confirmed. Mu Wan's eyes were empty and his tone was also very hollow.
"No, I don't have the intention to save anyone, and I'm not familiar with Lord Shuangyue either. I just feel what will happen. The Demon-Sealing Blade told me."
Shi Wuqi picked up the wakizashi on the table and took the trouble to look at it again. To be honest, apart from the strange workmanship, it did not emit some incredible spiritual power. None of them could feel it. Mu Wan could not give it to them.
Explain this strange feeling, and as time goes by, the desire to follow the "guidance" has become weaker, but has not disappeared.
"...Actually, it's not bad." Shanhai took the Demon-Sealing Blade and handed it to Mu Wan, "Since Chili and the others have decided to give it to you, you can keep it personally. It just so happens that you don't have a weapon, so take it with you for the time being. It is said that the Demon-Sealing Blade
The blade is very powerful even if it is not unsheathed, so it is important to slowly explore how to use it. Since we are heading north, let’s go back home first.”
Mu Wan placed the cup on the wooden table on the bed, holding the magic sealing blade across it. The warm light of dusk shone on it, making it look even older. It didn't have the smell it should have, such as the musty smell of old cloth or metal.
There is no rusty smell at all. However, Shi Wuqi said that many things cannot be seen in a world that does not belong to them. Presumably returning the Demon Sealing Blade to the Shura Dao will probably reveal its due edge.
.
But they are human beings and should use human thinking to solve problems.
"No," she said, "I'm not going back."
"What?" Shanhai thought he heard wrongly.
"I won't go back. There's no need, really."
Shi Wuqi was speechless for a moment. He was worried that this was some kind of compromise on her part. If that was the case, it wouldn't be necessary. But he knew that Mu Wan would never give up something she didn't have to give up because of temporary concessions, so she said this
His words must have been more than just his own situation. Even so, Wu Qi’s mood was still a little subtle. He said:
"It's just a drop-in. Don't we also want to borrow Yunwai..."
"Shouldn't we look for Luoshen Sand first? It's located farther north. It doesn't matter if we go directly there. If we want to go to Snow Inkstone Valley, we have to make a special detour to the west."
There was another moment of silence in the room. This kind of dialogue always gives people a kind of consideration such as "it's not actually what it meant", "it didn't have to be like this", "although it's reasonable, there seems to be room for maneuver".
"You...do have other plans, right?"
Shan Hai stared directly into Mu Wan's eyes, and she quickly averted her gaze. After so long, Shan Hai could always see through others without letting herself be seen through, and Mu Wan was still so undisguised in front of him. She had already
I noticed it, here
She couldn't hide it in front of a group of people, but maybe it was enough to deal with outsiders. Invisibly, they were already like a family. She was the only one who could not pretend to be emotional, and she didn't have to bear the burden alone because of worries, and she didn't need to deliberately bear the burden.
Heavy stuff.
"You tell us." Shan Hai said, "It doesn't matter whether we support it or not. What matters is that you should speak out."
"You have to tell us what you think." Dai Luan also agreed, "You can't think about it but say nothing. Aren't we brothers and sisters who have been through life and death?"
Brothers and sisters. This concept is too thin. In Mu Wan's definition, this concept belongs to her real blood relatives and her beloved classmates. And they have always been labeled as "companions" and "friends"
.Now that her real brother is dead - although she has not yet formed a real feeling after her serious illness - her beloved senior brother has abandoned her, and the rest of her disciples who grew up with her are thousands of miles away, she finally has reason to fully convince herself.
.
"Siblings," she said, "Siblings."
"I don't know what you are thinking about the siblings who are separated from your head." The surnamed Shi started to become unserious.
Mu Wan nodded, placed the Demon Sealing Blade on the table, and folded his hands on the quilt.
"I know who the murderer is."
"……Yeah?"
"Tang He."
Shan Hai and Wu Qi looked at each other again, and Dai Luan then said:
"It's not that we haven't considered it, but we can't find a sufficient reason. We can't find any clues based on Mo Liang's words. There is no direct evidence. Just relying on the grudge between you seems... not very convincing."
"That's why we advise you to go back," Shanhai said, "see your mother, and then ask them if they have any other details."
"No, I have good reasons. As for my mother...she definitely doesn't want me to go back, even if she really wants to see me. I understand her. If I go back, she will know that she will be reluctant to leave me, and will blame herself for staying here."
I can’t live in Liangqiu’s house. And I’m also afraid that I will...so it can’t be done. At least not now.”
"Then...what's your reason?"
"Sachet."
"Sachet?"
"When it comes to Tianxiang Jade, I understand everything. When I was a child, my father had a small piece of jade. It was as beautiful as gelatin and had a faint fragrance that did not belong to any flowers. My father said that it was the fragrance of stone. Later, I heard from my brother
He said, this is what my father helped me with back then.
Someone proved his innocence, and the mother of the only son left cried and thanked her, and insisted on giving the piece of family heirloom to my father. At first, my father didn't want it, but the old man said that if he left it to his son, he would only be defeated by him.
...Although her son was indeed spoiled, he
He was in bad health, but he had no intention of harming others, let alone the courage to kill. He was only arrested because he was too messy. Ah... I must have offended someone in the court at that time. Anyway, that piece of jade,
He finally accepted it. Well, one day I accidentally
It hit...I forgot how old I was at that time, I must have been very young. I thought I was going to be scolded to death by my parents, but my brother took the bag for me, and my parents beat him hard on the butt. Later I thought
The two pieces of broken jade were thrown away because in my memory, I no longer saw it."
"So actually...it was put in your sachet?"
"Yes. When I was a child, I always felt that it was a little heavier than an ordinary sachet. But as I grew up, I no longer felt it. But it was only half, I guess, because the two pieces were heavier and would definitely rub and collide. I would have discovered it a long time ago.
"
"The other half is at your brother's place?"
"Yes. We are a couple."
Yan and Wan are a pair.
"How did Tang He know there was a sachet there..."
When Dai Luan muttered, Mu Wan suddenly tightened his grip on the Demon Sealing Blade on the bed table, and the bells half as big as a fingernail rustled.
Yes, how else would you know?
To sow discord, sow discord, intensify conflicts, and confuse people's hearts... Those who are keen on creating such a situation of fighting between dragons and tigers can't think of anyone other than a certain Liudao Impermanence.
"Ah, wait...it could be Gao Yuejun who said it." Dai Luan realized.
Shi Wuqi shrugged and said, "It's not unusual for her and Chen Yuejun to wear the same pants every day or two."
Shan Hai remained calm. He analyzed: "But she also told us everything about Tang He. She also deliberately made us compete with each other. She is worthy of being a voodoo master. No matter who survives the fight between snipe and clam, she can also
Just reap the benefits. If Mu Wan is right, she allowed us to meet in order to speed up the achievement of everyone's goals."
"So this is one of the reasons why she didn't give us the Tianxiang Jade." Wu Qi continued, "She wanted us to grab it... but has Tang He really got it?"
"I should have it. Mo Liang listed all my brother's belongings there, except for the sachet. He may also be worried that someone is looking for something, but he doesn't know what it is, so he just copied them all. Ah, Wu Qi is going to
Are you looking for... what kind of sand are you looking for?"
"Luoshen sand. It's in Cuipingtan in the north. Shan Hai said that he had gone to several pharmacies, but there was none, so he had to go there."
"Go, go directly. You don't have to go to Xue Yan Valley, you have to seize the time."
According to Gao Yuejun, comparing the medicine list, this was also the raw material Tang He lacked. Later, they casually talked about some irrelevant topics, but they were careful and cleverly avoided all life and death. They all knew that Mu Wan was not
not really accepted
Siyan's death. Sometimes death is not a letter, a message, or a cold corpse. It is an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks that come out during the meal. It is the deceased's clothes that are successively found from home and buried in the drawer.
Those familiar but no longer updated family letters in the depths.
She knew. But she didn't know if she was ready to face it.
They originally wanted to bring dinner to the girls' room, but Mu Wan insisted on going downstairs by herself. Although she staggered, she could finally feel the solid touch of the ground that she had not seen for a long time. Before going to sleep, Mu Wan suddenly remembered something
, after much hesitation, she chose to tell everyone. After all, this was what she had thought clearly before.
"Hazuki-kun's geese are also flying to the north."
"Okay, got it."
It sounds like a useless message, but it probably contains too much, stuff they don't know. What's waiting for them in the north?
Although Dai Luan was joking, saying that Ye Yuejun was walking too fast, and did not say to give them a lift, in fact everyone knew that without the help of spiritual veins, this is the speed at which they should move forward step by step. Even if
There are cars and horses, Kyushu is so big, and a thousand miles in one day seems so insignificant.
They walked and kept walking north. Xia's pace was faster than them, catching up and surpassing the large and small footprints.
