The steward Black Coyote was familiar with the road to Hu County, so he recommended himself as a guide and set off with the dancing horse.
Unfortunately, Yuwen Jianxue said that the journey to Hu County was closely accompanied by the ghost. Even the black hyena could feel the strangeness of the dancing horse - as if there was a third person between him and the dancing horse, floating invisibly.
in the space.
As for Dancing Horse, to be honest, he was entangled in a stubborn longing that was completely unreasonable.
He thought countless times about the past events when he and Qingxia met and interacted with each other, especially the little bits and pieces that happened in The Journey to the West. He recalled Qingxia's words, word for word, extremely clear.
After the memories surged and receded like a tide, he walked barefoot on the beach and found that the ground was covered with shells washed up by the sea. He bent down to pick up the shells. The moment his fingers touched them, the memory suddenly hit his mind, followed by the huge sea.
The waves made a loud crashing sound and washed over again.
He was drowned by the huge waves.
After the huge waves receded, he found that all the shells on the beach had disappeared, replaced by a slightly blurred phantom of Qingxia. Her face was as stunning as when he first met her, and she was still wearing the same clothes.
The purple gauze dress when we first met.
Wu Ma confirmed that this phantom was Qingxia's ghost. Ever since she was slapped to death by his own palm, it had been following him closely and never left. However, she had been sealed by the inherent laws of the Dead Soul Realm before.
And Dancing Horse's instinctive wave of longing broke through the seal.
The appearance of the ghost gave Wu Ma a surprise that he had not experienced for a long time since time travel. He and the ghost looked at each other affectionately for a long time, as if they had once been a pair of passionate and inseparable lovers.
He talked to the ghost as if she had never died or had risen from the dead.
"You're welcome and safe."
"Not so good," Qingxia smiled, "It's very cold here, not to mention I'm wearing so little."
"I'll burn some thick clothes for you later."
"good."
After thinking for a long time, Wu Ma solemnly raised the first question to Ghost, which was also the doubt that had been bothering him since that incident. If this doubt could not be solved, he would fall into a maze where he could never find the exit——
"Why do you do that?"
"What kind?"
"You could have killed me, or at least you could have died together."
"Because hate cannot live forever, but love can."
Wu Ma thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out. The second time, Wu Ma asked the same question, and the ghost replied: "Because the betrayer can only be punished, everything is already doomed."
Wu Ma asked the same question for the third time, and Ghost replied: "Because we can't be together."
On the way to Hu County, Wu Ma asked Qingxia's ghost this question countless times, but received countless completely different and profound answers.
Until the last question, there was a faint and naughty smile on the ghost's face: "You can take a guess." So, until the end of the world, Wu Ma did not solve the mystery. As expected, he was trapped in the maze, unable to do anything for the rest of his life.
relief.
But horse dancing is not all without its rewards.
With the in-depth communication between Wu Ma and the ghost, her soul became more and more solid. Every time the ghost said a word, it would emit a faint green light. After the green light passed, the ghost became more real, as if someone was holding a
The needle injected flesh and blood into the ghost's body.
Especially when talking about the doubts that have been troubling Dancing Horse, the speed of the needle injecting flesh and blood will become even faster.
So along the way, Wu Ma repeatedly asked the ghost the same question. When they arrived at Hu County, in Wu Ma's recognition and sight, she had become a real person. She could be slapped to death again. Of course.
, he swore on his own life that he would never do this again.
The road to Hu County was long and short. He was focused on bringing Qingxia back to life, and even forgot the purpose of his departure. Until he arrived at the border of Hu County, the hoarse and loyal voice of the black coyote rang in his ears.
: "Wu Langjun, wake up, we are here."
This sound seemed to come from a soul-ringing bell, ignoring the body and striking the soul, waking him up from the dream he had been in for a long time.
He shook his head, and the world calmed down in the confused swing, and the simple face of the black coyote appeared in front of his eyes. Only then did he realize in shock that he had never seen the face of the black coyote along the way, so that he forgot
This loyal housekeeper has been following him since he set out from Jinyang.
"Where are you?"
"Hu County."
Wu Ma looked up and saw a lonely and small city in the distance. The Jinyang City in his memory completely outshone it. He turned around and looked around, and was horrified to find that the Qingxia that he had worked so hard to finally come back to life had disappeared.
At that moment, he even felt that his legs had lost half of their strength.
Wu Ma repeatedly recalled everything that had just happened, tangled up in every detail, and stubbornly believed that it was the sound of the black coyote that woke him up that scared away Qingxia's fragile soul, so he sternly demanded that the black coyote take back the awakening just now.
"How can you take back what you said?"
"I don't care, you can figure it out on your own. The people I personally sent to Quele can be resurrected from the dead."
"Okay, I'll take it back. Mr. Dancer, please don't wake up and continue talking nonsense."
Miraculously, after Black Coyote said these words, the solid Qingxia appeared again. From then on, she always accompanied the dancing horse, even when she was fighting with the girl next to her sweating and shirtless, she did not want to disappear for a moment.
.
After the panic returned to calm, Wu Ma said to Black Coyote: "Don't tell me to wake up again in the future."
…
After arriving in Hu County, they quickly inquired about Li Hongyu's situation, and learned that after all the awakened disciples who worked for her were lost, the Sui army showed its viciousness and decided to kill her as a warning to others. They concentrated fire attacks and pursued her relentlessly.
All in all, Li Hongyu fell into a very dangerous situation.
At the critical moment when the mission assigned by Tang Gong was about to fail, Black Coyote finally saw the strength and shrewdness of Wu Ma that had disappeared for a long time. He ambushed a Sui army of one hundred people, causing everyone to lose their combat effectiveness at the right time.
He also cried and howled in pain, just to pry out the whereabouts of Li Hongyu from the mouth of the team leader. In the mountain forest where the horseshoes were messy, he used various details to determine which horse hoof mark was more likely to come from Li Hongyu's volunteers, or from the vicious pursuer of her.
Sui army.
Finally, in the shortest possible time, he found a forest on the top of a mountain where Li Hongyu was besieged by the Sui army. At this time, the team following Li Hongyu had been reduced from the initial two thousand people to less than one percent of the original number.
And when the dancing horse, wearing a Sui soldier's uniform stained with fresh blood, rushed from the back of the Sui army that was focused on strangling Li Hongyu to the front, it was the first time he saw the man who had made him a human in these two lives, in the TV movie Douyin, as well as reality and the end of the world.
When he saw a beautiful young woman who was shocked by countless beautiful women and indifferent men, he quickly understood that the dark Sui army around him was not actually here to suppress the rebellion.
Immediately afterwards, he came up with an idea that would never change in his life - there could never be another girl more beautiful than this young woman in the world. It had not existed before and would never appear in the future.
He was shocked by this and stood still, describing the beauty of the young woman with subconscious thoughts, so that three awakened disciples of the Sui Army blocked the young woman beside the trunk of a big tree and surrounded her with ice snakes and fire pythons, and were about to kill her.
When he was knocked to the ground, he realized that it was time for him to take action.
