After returning to Liujiazhuang, Wu Ma saw that the entire village was completely silent, with not even a single person in sight.
Liu Yanzhi's face turned pale, "It's not like they were all eaten by monsters."
"No." Wu Ma's answer was decisive.
After returning to his home, Wu Ma heard his mother-in-law say that there was a loud noise outside the village just now, as if gods were fighting, which frightened the people in the village so that they did not dare to go out. Not long after, they heard a tiger roar and saw a white light.
Chasing a black light, he fled far away.
Wu Ma then thought that the black tiger must have lured away the monster. With the black tiger guarding Liujiazhuang, he could leave with peace of mind.
The black tiger has been staying in Jieshan since then, guarding Liujiazhuang. He also gave himself a nickname, which he called Liu Taibao for short.
It was to pay tribute to Liu Boqin, who had once been kind to him. Isn't Liu Boqin's nickname the Taibao of Zhenshan?
After that night, Liu Yanzhi spread the news throughout Liujiazhuang that the tiger threat had been eliminated. She only said that Brother Yousheng did it, but did not say what Liu Yousheng did. This was Wu Ma's advice to her, but it made Wu Ma look even more...
Be mysterious.
There was a rumor in Zhuangzi that Liu Yousheng picked a fairy fruit while hunting and ate it, and then he became enlightened, wise and capable, and he might even become a fairy in the future.
Others say that the so-called monster outside the village was Liu Yousheng who was captured and specially guarded the Liu family village.
Regarding this statement, Yuwen Jianxue didn't know what Wu Ma was thinking in her heart. Anyway, she was a little bit dumbfounded.
Yuwen Jianxue returned to Liujiazhuang before the horse dance. She even had time to glance at the battle between the black tiger and the monster from a distance, and felt that it was quite similar to the battle between the awakened disciples. However,
There is no rest time for monster spells.
After returning to the village, Yuwen Jianxue first sneaked back to the yard where she and Wu Ma had ambush the black tiger before. After the alcohol was almost gone, the tiger's body transformed into a human form, the white hair disappeared, and the skin became smooth.
Like jade.
Yuwen Jianxue put on a big red robe and became a bride again.
However, at this time, she felt that she was a little different from before. She took a brave first step. Although it was only a small progress, she benefited a lot.
Yuwen Jianxue recalled this trip to the Two Realms Mountains, recalled the fantasy world and the battle, and what he experienced was like a dream.
However, she still didn't understand the purpose of this divine decree. What arrangement was there for the illusion on the Two Worlds Mountain? Was it just to let her know Aye's true intentions so that she could let go of her hatred?
However, she did not let it go at all. The more Aye said this, the more she remembered how kind Aye was to her when he was alive, and the more she hated the Hunjun in her heart.
Hatred was like a seed, planted in her heart, taking root and sprouting, growing bigger and bigger, becoming a small tree.
This trip to the fantasy land has given this little tree enough water and fertilizer, and it will only grow bigger and stronger.
"Two Realms Mountain...this name is really interesting if you think about it carefully."
The black tiger found out about the real culprit who killed his mother on the mountain, so he came to protect Liujiazhuang.
Liu Mang knew his grandmother's suffering and determined to rescue more demons.
Liangjie Mountain is like a watershed.
This is what people are like when they are on this side of the mountain. When they get to the other side of the mountain, they experience a profound enlightenment and have a new way forward.
Yuwen Jianxue suddenly remembered a line from the poem engraved on the Liangjie Mountain stone tablet -
"[No difference, no similarity, nothing, hard to give up, hard to take, hard to listen to and look forward to], could it mean this: after stepping on these two mountains, there is giving and taking, and it is hard to give up and take, life will be the same as before, but it will become different again.
What.
The so-called different means that I must be braver than before and know more truths.
The so-called sameness means that the unforgettable hatred is still engraved in my heart. I think Black Tiger, Liu Mang, and Wu Ma should all have similar sentiments."
No matter when the divine decree ends, in Yuwen Jianxue's heart, this experience has been fruitful and it can end here.
…
After the tiger problem was over, people gradually dared to leave Zhuangzi, but few people went hunting in the mountains and forests anymore. People began to find other ways to make a living, farming, doing business, and making handicrafts. Zhuangzi was actually more prosperous than before.
Several months later, the divine decree was still not over, and Wu Ma and Yuwen Jianxue were still trapped in Liujiazhuang.
Aunt Liu Yousheng's head syndrome became more and more serious.
One morning, as soon as she walked out of the room, she collapsed on the ground.
Ah Xue helped her mother to the bed, and she could no longer get up on her own.
The doctor said: "Hurry up and prepare for the funeral."
Because of the tragedy that happened in front of their home that day, the wedding of the two was cancelled. The old people said it was unlucky.
In order to fulfill A Niang's last wish, Wu Ma and Yu Wen Jianxue planned to pick a good day and plan another wedding.
Auntie was no longer able to help. Wu Ma and Yu Wen Jianxue took care of everything. Liu Yanzhi would come over every day to help, and she just had to stay at Liu Yousheng's house.
Liu Yanzhi also prepared two sets of everything, new clothes, bedding and so on. Aniang asked her what she was doing. She said, "When Brother Yousheng and I get married, there will be no need to make any more arrangements."
Wu Ma said to Yanzhi privately: "I can't marry you, so don't bother."
Yanzhi said: "Brother Yousheng, please don't keep your words to yourself."
As for Yuwen Jianxue, she was extremely reluctant to get married to Wu Ma at first. But after experiencing all kinds of things, she became more determined to take revenge, so she took the marriage lightly. What's more, it was still a wedding.
Fake marriage.
Especially when Yuwen Jianxue learned that Wu Ma was the murderer of Liu Mang's mother, she suddenly let go of something heavy in her heart and let go of some unrealistic fantasy about Wu Ma.
She felt that it was impossible for her to be with this person. She could repay his kindness and sacrifice many things, even her life, to save him. But it was impossible to fall in love with such an indifferent person.
