Chapter two hundred and seventy-fifth: no competition with the world
And they could no longer see the banshee. After the incense burner was lit by karma fire, the door to the mirage could no longer be opened. They could no longer verify the name of the banshee and where she came from.
This bone sword cannot be sent to the mirage.
"There is a way." Mu Wan comforted them, "After the medicine is refined and the fire in the furnace is extinguished, the bone sword can be put in, and Mo Liang will be saved."
Although Shi Wuqi agreed with his words, he actually knew very well in his heart that the fire that was ignited can only be taken back by the person who set the fire. He won't say it now, just because he doesn't want to ruin the atmosphere. He will have to tell them after a while. If something is hidden,
Telling the truth at the end is not kind, it is making trouble over nothing, leaving people unprepared. Foreshadowing in advance is not cruel, it is just stating the facts.
But... now is not the time.
Because Ye Yuejun didn't come back with them, she and Yanqun left. Mo Liang was more or less immersed in the sadness of leaving without saying goodbye and couldn't speak. He liked and thanked her from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't say anything in the end.
Kai. Besides, Shanhai and the others brought back such a controversial thing.
They only said that the sword had been fused with a body and bones, and he would be saved soon. As for who it was and where it came from, Lord Ye Yue asked them not to say.
"If you do this, he will definitely think too much." At that time, Shan Hai said, "Even if he doesn't think about you, he will inevitably think that you have done something bad, and he should kill you with his knife - or at least he doesn't want to kill you.
people."
"It's okay, that's okay." She just said, "Just don't let him know, even if he hates me."
She left without even saying goodbye.
Shanhai and Wuqi stayed behind and looked at each other. Shanhai was very blocked, and Wuqi was also blocked, but his feeling was even stranger to him, like an indescribable thing that was blocked from his throat to the depths of his body.
His breath could not go up or down. He didn't spend much energy on the way here, but he just felt extremely tired.
"I feel strange." He said to Shan Hai, "I think it would be better if she made it clear."
"...how to say?"
"If she says that what she picks out with this sword is her own bone, then the child can accept it or not. If she doesn't say it and makes him think it is someone else's, then the child can still choose to accept it or not? That's the result.
Don’t they all look the same?”
Shan Hai thought for a long time and didn't know how to answer this. If Shi Wuqi was some other monster, he just wanted to sigh, "How can the feelings between people be explained clearly to monsters" - of course, that's not what he really thought.
It's about different people and different situations. Shi Wuqi is a big difference. He feels that Wuqi can actually figure it out, but he is unwilling to give in and needs to ask more questions.
"...Xiao Liang doesn't have to take it. But whether to give it or not, it's Ye Yue-kun's business."
They reached a consensus and did not tell Mu Wan and Dai Luan. But they were not stupid, and they could see it. It was just that the tacit understanding between the few of them was amazing, and no one told Xiao Liang. Only Xi Yu wiped his tears and said stupidly,
Great, you are saved.
Mo Liang was originally taciturn, and he is even less talkative now. It seems that he is no different from before, and he has not expressed any opinions. He is so calm that it is scary. But sometimes if you call him suddenly, he will not respond. You have to shout more.
It took him a few calls to come back to his senses. Those who knew knew that he was thinking about something, but those who didn't knew thought he was deaf.
Would he think that it was Lord Ye Yue's flesh and blood? Or would he think that it was someone she killed? No one knew what he was thinking, and no one dared to ask. There are some things you can only wait for him to say in person. If he
If you don't say it, no one can force it.
Dai Luan had indeed guessed it. Of course, at night, she secretly went to ask Shan Hai. He was the only one in the guest room with Wu Qi. Wu Qi was probably in the backyard, and Shan Hai was reading a picture book in the room. She must have read it all over the years.
It was rotten, and many words and pictures could not be read clearly. Shan Hai read a few pages casually, but his mind was not on them.
When Aluan asked, Shanhai had no intention of hiding it. Seeing him nodding, Aluan continued to ask.
"Then tell me, why didn't she pick off the demon bones?"
"The demon bone is her foundation and cannot be peeled off."
This decent answer didn't seem to satisfy Aluan. And it seemed that she had actually thought of this. Her reaction reminded Shan Hai of Shi Wuqi during the day. The person who asked the question had something in mind, but he was not sure and dared not
explain.
"...and Hazuki-kun must not be a person who forgets his roots."
This answer at least convinced Aluan. She nodded in agreement, feeling that she could understand it. No matter whether the past of being a demon was good or bad, whether she wanted to give up or not, she knew that she should not give up.
"That's true," Aluan said, "otherwise she wouldn't have been thinking about the descendants of the Mo family for so long."
These words made Shanhai feel a chill in his heart. He suddenly felt a little regretful. If it weren't for this reason, Ye Yue-kun wouldn't have to suffer such torture.
But it's too late to say anything now. We can only accept what has happened. As for what Mo Liang thinks and how to deal with it, it is all his freedom. Ye Yuejun must have thought that Mo Liang might give up this opportunity and resent her for it.
But she did it on her own, paid off her "debt", and finally took off her burden with a clear conscience - and put it on Mo Liang. Even though this was not her original intention.
Isn't this putting the cart before the horse? Is this really what she wants?
Or maybe she just doesn't forgive herself.
Shi Wuqi was also thinking about these questions. Although it was boring, it had no personal meaning to him. He and Miss Qi collected all the Roselle sand. The seeds shrank a lot and had become very brittle. They removed them.
It was spread out lightly in his hand. Shi Wuqi could always think of the moment last night when Lord Xueyue crushed it.
Mu Wan passed by the back door and took a few steps back. She could always think of those two people here, and she didn't know what they whispered. Maybe it was something insignificant, but she was too sensitive. But that day, she was let down for unknown reasons.
She was impressed.
"Aren't you guys going to rest?" Mu Wan said, "I'm going to ask Aluan to go back to sleep. Is Miss Qi coming? I'm going to lock the door."
Shi Wuqi came back to his senses, nodded, and carried the bag into the house. It was originally a big and heavy sack, but now it was only a little lighter after the seeds were dehydrated.
"I might not be able to leave tomorrow, I think it's going to rain."
Mu Wan asked: "What about the day after tomorrow?"
"If we don't leave the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid the road will be too muddy. If possible, it's best to leave the day after tomorrow."
"How do you know? Is it because it's too boring?"
"I don't know. I can just feel it."
"I want to go back quickly."
"Um."
In fact, Wu Qi knew that she eagerly wanted to return to Xueyan Valley, to see her mother and classmates. On the other hand, she really couldn't stay any longer. And she seemed to have something to say, and he wasn't sure.
This is not a topic about Hazuki-kun.
"Say what you want to say."
Mu Wan opened her mouth in surprise, wondering if he would notice it. But she always felt that it was not good to mention that incident... After all, it had been a long time. So she changed her mind and asked Bai Tian
It's settled.
"Hazuki-kun...isn't she?"
"yes."
"I also think that in half a night, even if it's troublesome to catch a random passerby, where can I find someone who is willing to die? Mo Liang must be able to figure out what's going on... In this way, Ye Yuejun must be very energetic.
hurt."
"She won't live long."
"What?"
Mu Wan felt that he had heard wrongly. From day to now, if it was such a big thing, why didn't they react as much as they should have. Or was he hiding it?
"Think about it, except for Lord Ye Yue, the only parts of the human body that Yama has given to the six realms of impermanence are the human parts. If Lord Ye Yue throws away this mortal body, her life will not be long."
"But, can't monsters live for a long time?" Mu Wan tried to comfort herself, "As long as nothing happens to her and she is honest, she can live forever? And even if she is in any danger, Yama Demon will not..."
"Don't you understand?" Shi Wuqi pinched the bridge of his nose, "Shui Wujun also mentioned that if you choose to give up voluntarily, no one can care about it. And how can you protect yourself wisely in the work of the six paths of impermanence? She is risking her life to break the curse.
——I still don’t know if this curse can be broken. Now I really doubt the purpose of the banshee in the illusion, but I have no way to verify it, and I am very worried.”
He didn't dare to tell Mu Wan yet that even if he did as the banshee said, he would still have to find Lord Xueyue for "help". He had obviously made these plans a long time ago.
Neither of them spoke. Miss Qi stood motionless beside her like a sculpture.
As if to change the subject, Shi Wuqi muttered again: "This sword is really evil."
"...how to say?"
"Regardless of whether the method works or not... Although I can feel the increasingly vivid vitality of this sword that has been raised, it does not have that much violence and is more peaceful. Even if there is no such method, in order to continue the sword's owner
For a longer life, people who are greedy for life will definitely go into evil ways and become murderous when they discover this characteristic."
"Mo Liang is not such a child."
"I know. His sword is always wielded for others, never for himself."
The sky was still dark. When dawn was supposed to break, what woke people up was not the crow of the rooster, but the roar of thunder. As Shi Wuqi said, it rained heavily for most of the day. The village is on a higher ground
, maybe I chose this place because it happens when summer comes. Even if I am prepared, someone’s fence will be blown down and the fish in someone’s fish pond will overflow.
The old man had been complaining about pain in his legs since the day yesterday, and as expected, it rained so heavily today. Everyone gathered around grandma, taking care of her, thanking her, and telling her that they were leaving soon. The old man was reluctant to leave, and seemed to feel that his legs were more painful.
It hurts.
"If you leave, my children will come back to see me at some point," she said.
"It's almost here. As soon as this rain is over, autumn will begin. When the weather cools down, I'm looking forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Double Ninth Festival, and the Chinese New Year. They will definitely be back by then." Mu Wan paused, then
Said, "I also want to go back to my mother's place."
"That's right, it's better to go back as soon as possible. You can't keep the mother waiting..."
Thinking carefully, the Dragon Boat Festival has passed, and no one remembers it. Even along the way, except for Aluan's birthday, no one mentioned his own. When I was young, I remembered it, but I didn't even have enough food in my stomach. Now I eat
I don’t have to worry about wearing it, but I don’t have time to think about myself anymore.
