No matter how noisy the gongs and drums are and the firecrackers are blasting, the excitement in a foreign land does not belong to guests from a foreign land. In this city, Lingyu can't find anything similar to Feiyue City.
"It's like this everywhere during the New Year." Han Chang said, "Although different places have different customs, the bustling atmosphere is the same. How can it be different from your hometown?"
"It's indeed different." Ling Huan felt a little sad. "It feels different. This is my second year away from home... Although I don't regret this trip, I will miss home after all."
Xie Zhe held the tea cup and didn't say anything for a long time. The water was very hot. He used the lid to glance at the foam on the tea. He blew it for a long time, but he still couldn't get it into his mouth. But he didn't want to open the window and let the cold wind from outside come in. The tea was cold.
, people are also cold.
"There's nothing wrong with being homesick." After a long while, he finally said, "I would also think about it. There are only my mother and me in my family, and now she is the only one left. I would write to her, but because I am wandering around, I can't accept it. It's just a world.
I couldn't say I would come back before I was stable. She didn't listen to anyone, but since Mutsuki-kun recommended me to travel, she didn't stop her too much. She only said that we are committed to
I have survived until now because of Mutsuki-kun's kindness. Since Mutsuki-kun is for the common people, I should also help the common people - if I want some results, don't go back to see her. When she said this, she was obviously very fierce. Now I really can't do anything.
, naturally I don’t have the shame to see her. When I get busy on weekdays, I will even forget about her... I guess I am a bit 'heartless'."
"A Zhe has obviously done a lot?" Ling Huan tried to comfort him and said, "Your mother must only look fierce, but in fact she is not willing to let you go. If she doesn't look more fierce, I'm afraid she won't be willing to let you go.
"
Han Zhang also smiled bitterly and said: "And how can this be considered heartless? Not to mention asking Ying, didn't I go back to see the old man for a long time at that time? But the life span of monsters is very long, in comparison, it is...
Alas, the happiest among us right now is probably the only movie we can watch is Wenying."
Wenying kept holding the tea cup and said nothing because she was afraid of spoiling their mood. But being called out like this made her a little unhappy. She said gloomily: "I didn't say anything because I saw that you all were not very happy."
Really? Besides, both of you are looking sad, so how can I be happy? Really, who do you think I am?"
"Can't you tell that I'm joking with you? You girl, you're still so fussy about everything."
"Stop treating me like a child!" Wenying was unhappy again and her voice was much sharper. Everyone sitting next to her in the teahouse looked at her, so she shrank her neck and stopped talking.
Han Chang didn't feel embarrassed at all. He sighed and said quietly: "These days, only human children are easy to get lost."
There was a bit of complaint in her words, and there was something pointed in them. Wenying stopped talking completely, and she thought about losing her purse again. Although Hansang didn't mention it, she was thinking about it - there was also a parting gift of warm wine in it.
Han Zhang suddenly realized that she might think about this matter again, so he immediately cleared his throat and said to her:
"Let's do this. After we finish talking with Mu Yue-kun, you can take sister Ling Huan out for a walk. I heard from the table next door that there is a temple fair nearby."
"I heard it too. Aren't you going?" Wenying blinked and said. Ling Huan felt that her eyes were indeed brighter than before.
Xie Zhe smiled and said, "You don't think she is a child anymore?"
"Running away from home is something that happens once and for all." Han Chang also smiled, "You girls are very meticulous about shopping, but we are all just looking at things. You have complained more than once, and you have been with us a lot.
It’s boring. This time, it’s just you two. Anyway, we’re nearby.”
"You have learned to let go, hahaha." Xie Zhe's tea cooled down and he was finally able to bring the cup to his mouth.
"What about you?" Han Chang raised his eyebrows, "Have you learned to let go?"
Xie Zhe was too lazy to talk to him.
"Why hasn't Mutsuki-kun come yet..."
Why hasn't Mutsuki-kun come yet? They don't know yet. But he did write a letter to them and asked a few people to meet at this teahouse in this city - this is the only teahouse nearby that doesn't close during the Chinese New Year, because it makes dim sum.
Yes, there were many locals coming even at this time. As the morning passed, people from the teahouse came and went, but Mutsuki-kun was nowhere to be seen.
The time was passed by chatting. Although they were still worrying about their own affairs a while ago, as they chatted today, they would suddenly turn to those unresolved issues. The evil turmoil has never stopped, and last year's epidemic has not stopped.
It seems like it has passed,
Although the puppet affairs have calmed down, we should not be careless. And there is no need to say more about personal matters. The most important thing is of course... Ling Huan's missing sister. If possible, she really hopes that Mutsuki-kun can take care of him.
What good news is coming.
However, it’s the New Year... suddenly no one takes the initiative to mention those sad words. The only thing worthy of sadness is probably the homesickness that has nowhere to go. Everything is painful enough if taken alone, and it will worsen the mood.
It’s better not to take things out and stack them together. They seemed to have agreed upon it, and they both knew it well. Although it sounds like they are avoiding talking about hopeless things for the time being, but... what will happen if they talk about it?
It's better to give your head and mouth a holiday.
It's so rare to be quiet.
"You guys have been waiting for a long time."
When they chatted casually, waiting for someone seemed less boring. When Muyue-kun suddenly appeared at the table, they were not prepared. Xie Zhe stood up in a hurry to greet him, but he just stretched out his hand and pressed it down to signal.
Everyone sit back.
"We are all old friends, there is no need to be so polite."
Mutsuki-kun chuckled and said, his voice and face remained the same as before, except his hair was still short, but he would look younger this way. Think about it, he looked like this before Xie Zhe was born, even if he knew
His status as the Six Paths of Impermanence is still unbelievable.
"In that case, let's get straight to the point. What is it that you said would be best explained in person?"
"It's not clear in the letter, so I'll bring it here. Just take a look -"
After that, he placed a long weapon on the table. He had always held this weapon in his hand. When a few people saw it, they wanted to ask, but they knew he would definitely tell. Speaking of which, this thing is also very interesting.
Strangely, it was wrapped in several layers of old cloth and looked unremarkable. We could only tell from its outline that it was a sword or a knife.
Mutsuki-kun is not good at throwing things, but the force was indeed a bit uncertain. The table made a dull sound, the dishes on it shook, and two cups spilled water. No wonder he said in the letter that he had to choose one
In an inconspicuous place, it's best to get a private room - but there won't be so many guests during the Chinese New Year, and the second floor is closed, so you can only find a corner on the spot.
Xie Zhe stood up alone and peeled off the cloth layer by layer. After peeling off four or five layers, what was revealed in front of several people was a knife - the kind of knife used as a weapon for killing people or for self-defense. The knife looked like
It's very old and ordinary. When I put my hand on it, I can feel that it's not smooth, as if it hasn't been polished for a long time.
"What is this?" Han Chang asked, "Is it unique and special?"
"Weigh it and take a look." Mutsuki-kun said.
Han Chang didn't stand up, but just reached out to pick it up, but unexpectedly found that it was very heavy. So he stood up and lifted it a little distance with some difficulty with both hands. Seeing this, Xie Zhe stretched out his hand to lift it, with a somewhat troubled expression on his face.
Subtle changes. The two girls looked at it blankly, a little confused.
"Ah! Wait a minute..." Ling Huan exclaimed in a low voice, "Have we seen this knife before?"
"Miss Ye has good eyesight." Mu Yuejun nodded and sat at the table and said, "This knife is the one used by the evil angel to cut blood and seal the throat."
Xie Zhe and Han Zhang immediately looked at it again. Indeed, except for the different color, this knife was exactly the same as the blood-cutting throat-sealing knife they had seen in Feng's hand. It was too ordinary, so ordinary that it was suspicious. It was covered in blood before.
Where did the color that penetrated the steel go?
"It, isn't its blade red..."
"Through some methods, I purified this sword. Now it is no longer the Six Paths Divine Weapon, but just an ordinary and heavy piece of scrap metal."
"How did you do that?!" They were so surprised.
"You know the so-called fusangshen, right? Objects will give birth to weapon spirits under certain circumstances... Of course, those are mostly objects that do not possess demonic power. For swords like the Six Paths Divine Weapon, which are infused with spiritual power during forging,
It is said that they are born with some kind of will of their own. And this will has deeply invaded the child.
After the child left, the will of the sword was weakened. At this time, it is not difficult to purify it. This method is only effective for cutting blood and sealing throats for the time being, and it is difficult to say about other swords. Perhaps,
Yin Guihong, who has just come into contact with weapons, has not yet been infected; perhaps, Wuyonglan's own will is strong enough to compete with it."
Everyone listened silently and nodded silently. Only Xie Zhe remained motionless and silent. After Mu Yuejun finished speaking, he frowned and asked tentatively:
"That is to say... the current cutting of blood and sealing of throat is of no use anymore?"
"Take it to re-melt it, and maybe you can hit other objects. But it doesn't have any demonic power at all now."
"Why do this?"
"This is what I want to tell you. Speaking of which, Gui Xiangu told us..."
They poured tea for Mu Yuejun and listened to his talk. It turned out to be what Guixiangu said, urging everyone to destroy the Six Paths Divine Weapon as soon as possible. The reason was a bit complicated and related to the Ten Evils. Heng Xing was domineering towards the evil envoy.
, In fact, Gui Xiangu had expected it and even managed to inform Yama Demon. But that adult... did not regard it as a threat.
It stands to reason that the evil deeds accumulated in the world over the past few years would not have caused such a disaster. However, they happened to be born one after another at a similar time point, as if everything was premeditated. At present, it seems that it is
Lord Kutsutsuki was behind the scenes, but why the lord was indifferent to this is still a mystery.
What other impermanent people can do is to solve problems one by one - solve the problems that have already arisen. It sounds too early to talk about nip in the bud, but in fact it is already too late. Everything depends on these
On the evil sword. If you want to stop the evil doings, the most important thing is to destroy all the swords.
They are "adding fuel to the flames".
"Maybe everyone has the intention to kill, but people are educated and can restrain themselves. And not everyone in the world will provoke others, slander others, and steal other people's property-people can restrain themselves from doing evil. However..."
