Xuanchuang Town has expanded a bit compared to before, but not by much. The population has only increased, but Shi Wuqi doesn't feel that it is more prosperous than in the past. Maybe he has seen too many more prosperous and noisy places, here
Some progress seems insignificant. This does not hinder his love for his "hometown". He said that stepping on this land again gives him an indescribable sense of security.
Just like what he said to Tang Huailan, apart from Aqi, the only one who accompanied him to Xuanzhuang Town was Ling Shanhai.
On the way to Xuanchuang Town, they didn't talk too much. The Lord of Dailuan City equipped them with fast horses, hoping to leave the mountains and seas early and return early, so he didn't use it for a long time like the previous time. Occasionally, they would mention Dailuan repeatedly.
Luan, let’s talk about the current situation of her family and who are the most suspicious. These two people
People are quite aware of it. Twice, they mentioned Mo Liang and Jiang Doudou respectively. It may be that the "redundancy" given by Ye Yuejun made Gui Tan allow him to do some behaviors that exceeded the preset, and also saved his life.
.He should be safe, probably. Tang He died in Xue Yan Valley, how much Ling Xue
Yanzong became famous, and this was a good opportunity to expand its power, but Chili firmly adhered to the wishes of his ancestors and still only accepted those true hermits and people with special life experiences. As for Jiang Doudou's child... If she could forget
This is all good. Originally, there were some people in the world who could make people
The medicine that gradually makes things fade away, but after thinking about it, this can be regarded as depriving the little girl of a certain power - the right to hold memories. Regarding her physical and mental problems, there are also disputes within the Xue Yan Sect. But she is staying there temporarily.
It's safe. Let's see how she and Chi Li decide in the future.
They tacitly agreed not to mention a word about a former friend, as if they were escaping. This made them somewhat disappointed in themselves.
Shanhai returned to the Weeping Corpse House with Shi Wuqi and Miss Qi. He followed Wuqi and passed through the courtyard gate and corridor in an upright manner, as if the door had been open to the street. But in fact, he knew that only Shi Wuqi could do that.
Mastery of the enchantment. If
Ordinary people who want to go in can only go and lie down in the coffins in the mass graves for a night. Although Xuanzhuang Town has expanded a bit, the mass graves are still the same. It is just that some of the bones have melted under the erosion of wind, rain and soil, and new ones have been added.
Just some strange guests.
There was no change inside the Weeping Corpse House, it was even spotless. They didn't stay too long, just took a look and left.
"Why don't you let Miss Qi take the medicine here?"
"She has no memory of this place." Shi Wuqi shook his head, "Sure enough, it would be best to go to a place she was familiar with during her lifetime."
"But you don't remember where she was familiar with during her lifetime?"
"Indeed. But since I recovered my memory, the two of us have indeed been in some ruins."
"……shrine?"
So they headed towards the shrine. The horses were tied here, and the three of them walked over and took a look at the scenery along the way. The streets were wider, some stores had changed, some had not - Shanhai can't remember clearly. Which one?
The drug store where Aluan once bought medicine is still there. Shan Hai went in specifically to take a look and found that the store had been replaced. The new shopkeeper was a young man and he said he didn’t know where the old man had gone. Shan Hai was quite a bit confused.
Pity.
The shrine has been renovated, which is surprising. But although everything looks bright and beautiful, there are still few people coming to worship here. The moss on the steps, the dust on the torii gate, and the rustling sounds of small animals all show a unique atmosphere.
A kind of loneliness that no one cares about.
No, there is another person.
The first thing that fell into their ears was the clear and melodious ringtone. The two people except Miss Qi raised their heads and looked at the long and deep stone steps that submerged into the forest. A woman came in style. She was dressed in a simple witch dress.
He was convinced, but Shanhai could tell by his soft appearance that this person was the impermanence of the Six Paths he had encountered before.
Qinghe Broken Flower·Maoyuejun.
"Why are you here?" Shi Wuqi and she were old acquaintances, "I thought someone had finally taken over this place."
"..."
Uoyue-kun didn't reply, but just raised his head and smiled softly, with a rather sad expression. As a result, the two of them quickly realized the reason why she was here. It was obvious that she was impermanent.
"I've worked hard, but you're not here to stop me, right? Even if it's you, I won't give in."
"I know...but I'm not here to stop you. There are other people who are so unpredictable. Before that, I asked the gentleman to grant some time. Although it must be in vain, I still think it's better to say something.
.I am busy with work and have only had time to meet each other. Please forgive me."
Lord Mao Yue saluted, and Shan Hai returned the salute immediately, and took the opportunity to glance at Shi Wu Qi. Wu Qi did not speak, but pursed his lips, looking a little impatient.
"You're here now? What do you want to say? Isn't it too late?"
"It's not too late. It's not too late until you take action... If it doesn't work, there's no point in saying it sooner or later. I think I should remind you of what happened at that time - your business.
"
Although they are friends, Shi Wuqi's behavior is somewhat irritating now. What have they done earlier? Wu Qi and Shan Hai looked back at Miss Qi at the same time. There was no sparkle in her eyes. Wu Qi thought about it carefully, but he felt that
Not necessarily. If those things could easily make him decide that they were not worth it, and there was no need to retrieve memories for her or them, would he really be willing to do so?
The brief silence was regarded as permission. Lord Uoyue shook his head unconsciously and raised the Kagura bell in his hand. Shi Wuqi instinctively wanted to reach out his hand. Did he subconsciously misjudge the other party's action as an attack, or did he say,
Was he worried that what Utsuki-kun was about to do was objectively offensive? He couldn't explain it clearly, but at that moment, he felt a little weirdly hesitant.
"You are not the only one here." Shi Wuqi stared at the heights of the shrine's woodland with his remaining eyes, "There are others."
"Jiyue Lord is here too."
Lord Uoyue did not hide anything and admitted it generously. Shanhai also looked there. Lord Jiyue appeared without knowing when he was carrying his harp, only a small part of his body was hidden in the bamboo forest. The thin shadows of the bamboo leaves were on his face and clothes.
The upward swing makes the mountains and sea feel strange.
"So there is someone else who stops me, right?" Shi Wuqi was talking about Lord Jiyue, "But it's useless, none of you can stop me."
"You got something incredible from She Ji."
Mr. Jiyue's blindfold was still on his face. He walked slowly down the stone steps with a calm pace and a calm tone.
"indeed."
Shan Hai remembered this incident, and Wu Qi even sacrificed one of his eyes. But Shi Wu Qi never made it clear what the red crystal was used for. Now, he looked at Lord Ji Yue, expecting to get an answer.
.
"That thing is not on you."
Jiyuejun said and looked at Miss Qi behind them. Shi Wuqi subconsciously turned to the side to block it. But of course it was useless. Jiyuejun's eyes could clearly see the hint of vermilion in the darkness.
, as bright as drops of blood.
Shan Hai frowned slightly: "What exactly is that..."
"That is used to guard against the impermanence of the Six Paths." Lord Jiyue said calmly, "That was originally a bargaining chip for She Ji to be wary of Lord Gaoyue. But over the years, he has understood Lord Gaoyue's character, and this thing is also
There is no need for it. Now, he has used it in exchange for more useful props from the Hundred Skeleton Master. As long as Miss Qi wears that treasure, the Six Paths of Impermanence will not be able to harm her at all... So, they sent you here."
"...I'm sorry. If possible, I don't want us to get to the point where we are facing each other. When you understand the cause and effect, you can decide whether to do this."
Lin Shanhai opened his mouth slightly, revealing the incredible thing. He didn't expect that Shi Wuqi had already anticipated and prepared for this step. Should he be unfamiliar with Wu Qi? No, this is him... He is a
He started.
He has never changed.
"What are you doing there?" Lord Jiyue suddenly said to Shanhai, "Come here, come here."
The warm spring breeze blew over his body, making his hair stand on end.
Was Mr. Jiyue like this before? He looked at him, at that delicate and sad face, the perfectly curved corners of his lips, and the dark curtains over those clear eyes. They hadn’t seen each other for many years—even the distance was even greater than before.
In a short time, everything about Lord Jiyue is familiar to him. Indeed, he is indeed such a person... he should be.
Is he himself the one who has changed?
Shan Hai didn't know how to answer. Not only his body, but also his heart felt deeply desolate.
Shi Wuqi looked at him directly, like a beast staring at its prey. Shanhai felt an indescribable shudder, not fear, but something else, such as a threat.
Does he agree to go there himself?
Are you willing to go there?
Lin Shanhai shook his head.
"I know you are not this kind of person."
"What kind of thing? What do you know about me?"
"I admit that after two years, I still don't know you well enough. But... I understand everything you do."
"Understand? Understand what? Which part?"
The unclear words made Shi Wuqi show a somewhat dangerous expression. He raised his eyebrows with a hint of intimidation, although it was not his intention. Lin Shanhai forced himself to calm down and took a small step back to try to create a safe distance. But in doing so, it seemed that
Ling Wuqi was even more dissatisfied, and he felt a little regretful when he noticed it.
That's not what he meant.
"I understand you... I am prepared for everything, I have considered everything, and I understand your style, your temperament, and your choices. This is also... the reason why I never blamed you."
"Why don't you blame me?"
"I believe I truly understand you. The part you are as a monster."
"Part of it?"
"Because it makes sense."
"You are not understanding!" A strange golden light suddenly burst out from the corner of Shi Wuqi's eyes, "You are understanding! A self-righteous understanding! That's why you didn't blame me for my choice, for Qi, and for your father's... right?
?Yes or no?"
Shan Hai did not speak. He himself did not expect that such an unexpected fear would be inflicted by a close friend around him. He felt very uncomfortable, but at a loss what to do, unable to deal with it, and had nowhere to escape.
His silence was more like acquiescence.
"You think so because I'm a demon, right?"
Before the situation took a turn for the worse, Lord Uoyue suddenly shook the Kagura bell. The rapid sound brought them to a strange scene. This was not the first time Shanhai had experienced this kind of transition, and he didn't know if Shi Wuqi had the same experience.
This. But not important. This not gentle ringing sound is like a huge hand, using violence to forcefully drag them away and drag them to the fragments of history.
The first thing Shan Hai saw was not Shi Wuqi from more than thirty years ago, but the back of a girl.
Although it is easy to be confused based on the length of her hair, Shanhai knew that it must be a girl because she was wearing a red and white miko uniform. The style of the dress was the same as Uzuki-kun.
Following those broken and flickering fragments, Shanhai understood that she was the witch of this shrine. It was her duty to listen to the trivial matters of the townspeople, play with the children, pray for blessings and disasters, and protect a place. However, few people visited this shrine.
She was very lonely at the shrine because it was an unknown place - the place where "Xuan Sui" was sealed.
Shanhai could only see her back. This made her thin figure even more desolate.
She must be the granddaughter of Qi Xiangling, Qi Xiangling.
