Chapter 16 Chapter Eight Morning Dew

"Look, Miss Su is safe and sound now." Bringing the guests from afar to the high stage, Ozuki bowed with a smile, and signaled Shi Yu to look at the woman in scarlet clothes on the stage—the latter was pushing a wheelchair for a walk on the stage. The blue color on the bed has also faded, and the man who bowed his head from time to time and smiled at the man who was hurt by the wheelchair smiled lightly. "That one is..." Shi Yu frowned slightly. "Oh, that's Miss Su's friend," Mizuki smiled, "I heard that he was seriously injured to save Miss Su, and he is healing in this Moon Palace—but don't worry, his body will recover soon, there will be no delay Miss Su is on her way back."

"That's good. Thank you for your help." Shi Yu murmured, "I wrote back to inform the host yesterday." He looked from a distance and confirmed that the person on the stage was indeed Miss Su herself.The two people on the stage didn't know what they were talking about, but suddenly stopped their wheelchairs, looked at each other and smiled - that kind of smile was so peaceful and radiant, that people who looked at it from a distance had a feeling of unusual feeling. It has only been more than two months since she came to Miaojiang, and Miss Su's complexion and spirit seem to be much better than those in Luoyang.

Shi Yu thought silently in her heart, feeling a little relieved, but also a little uneasy.At this time, he saw a little girl running towards Su Wei and the man in the wheelchair, holding a garland in her hand, smiling brightly and innocently.The little brunette girl ran to the wheelchair, placed the wreath on the man's lap, and walked forward holding his hand, as if encouraging him to stand up.The man glanced at Su Wei, smiled, put his hands on the wheelchair, and stood up slowly. He stood with great difficulty, and when he stood up he staggered and almost fell.Fortunately, Su Wei who was beside him shot like lightning and straightened him instantly.

The little girl was bouncing up and down in front, looking back at the two people walking slowly from time to time, with a bright smile on her face. The sun was bright and the wind was gentle. The scene at that moment was so harmonious and peaceful that Shi Yu, who had gray temples, was stunned.Those who have been engaged in killing for many years have a more sensitive heart than ordinary people. Shi Yu lowered his head and sighed slightly. ——After listening to Xuelou for so many years, it seems that Miss Su has never seen such a smile. He turned his head and walked down the stage, but after walking a few steps, he found that the few subordinates waiting for him had gone to nowhere, and he couldn't help being slightly surprised.The back began to ache faintly.

"Oh, my lord's subordinates have already gone down to prepare their bags," Mizuki smiled, "We are leaving tomorrow, and Lord Lingjun ordered us to prepare some gifts for the central plains to present to the landlord, so they will go down first to get busy." Shi Yu nodded: "Thank you, Teacher." The pain in his back became more and more severe. As he walked forward, he suddenly felt vaguely uneasy—he had been in charge of Chuhua Xiaozhu for many years. There will be a dull pain in the back.Shi Yu was walking in the peaceful moon palace, feeling that something was wrong somewhere around her, but she didn't know where the uneasiness came from.

After walking a few more steps, the strange premonition became even stronger. He stopped and suddenly looked sideways——at some point, the holy lake that had dried up to the bottom was filled with water, sparkling! This is... He stopped in astonishment and looked back to his side.However, the obscuring moon that led him to this place has disappeared at some point, like a phantom that disappeared like a bubble.Looking again, even the high platform where Su Wei was just now disappeared. not good! Years of killing made Shi Yu suddenly alert, and with a flip of his wrist, he drew out the dagger.

However, at this moment, he heard giggles.A child ran down, she ran a few steps, and the ball in her hand fell down and rolled towards the lake.She chased after her and headed straight for the weird holy lake - he recognized that this child was the girl who was playing with Su Wei on the stage just now. "Don't go there!" Shi Yu blurted out, but the child had already waded into the water. The surface of the water suddenly shattered, and something dripped out from under the water, grabbing the child! "Be careful!" Shi Yu lost his voice, rushed over, and slashed at the monster that emerged from the bottom of the water. With long wet hair, outstretched bone-like palms caught the child's neck and dragged her down.

Is this... the technique of the Moon Worship Sect? He didn't have time to think about it, the sharp knife cut off the bone in an instant, and pulled the child over. However, at that moment, he suddenly felt a severe pain in his back—the moment before the blade completely sank into his abdomen, he had no time to think about it, and immediately swung the knife down, while turning around and retreating sharply. This time, his intuition saved his life again. The little girl stood by the holy lake, looked at him and smiled, holding a toy-like dagger in her small hand, which was stained with blood.She smiled so innocently and innocently, like the sun shining on the clouds.

"You are..." Shi Yu murmured while covering his wound. "Me?" The little girl smiled brightly, and suddenly stuck out her little tongue, licking the blood dripping from the dagger, her eyes were strange and cruel: "I am Lord Lingjun's obedient child." "Where's Dan Yi?" The little girl disappeared when she turned her head. Su Wei was a little stunned, and helped the person beside her to sit in the wheelchair slowly. "Where did you go to play?" Yuan Zhonglou was helpless, "She can't sit still." "After all, I was young. Although I was sad for my father for a while, I quickly looked away." Su Wei sighed, and pushed the wheelchair to the medicine room, "But although she has become an orphan, there will be moon worship in the future." Teach me to take care of you, if you want to come to Yin's house, you won't bother her again..."

In the middle of speaking, she suddenly stopped. Yin family.Since putting the sachet back on his pillow, he never mentioned anyone again.This seemed to be a taboo, a topic that the two of them tacitly avoided. "Yes." Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhonglou only replied indifferently, "Thank you Lord Ling Jun for interceding for us, so that I can go back after my injury recovers, and I don't have to worry about not having a foothold." "..." Su Wei lowered her eyes, looked at his left hand which was still wrapped in a bandage, and was speechless. Even if he goes back, what can he do?Do you still make a living by carving those woods to support yourself and Mi Danyi?

"Don't drink too much in the future." She remembered the first time she saw him, and couldn't help whispering. "Well. No more." Yuan Zhonglou smiled slightly, "Maybe I can't afford it anymore - I will take care of Danyi in the future, there is one more person, and the expenses are higher than before, so I must be more frugal." Su Wei was stunned, and couldn't help but see the appearance of him and Mi Danyi living together as dependents in the future, and she was dazed - that...should be very happy, right? "What about you?" He turned around and asked her unexpectedly, "When are you leaving?" "Let's go?" She asked blankly, not recovering for a moment. "Yes, your poison has been cured, shouldn't you go back to the Central Plains?" Yuan Zhonglou said indifferently, looking at the end of the north from the high platform, smiling, "Kalampinga, you came from the other side of the cloud, Carrying great power - you are not an ordinary person, you don't belong here, you have your world, and you have to go back after all." "..." She fell silent. her world?Does it refer to the "river and lake" full of bloody storms? After coming to the Moon Palace, she almost didn't think of Tingxuelou, nor did she think of the rivers and lakes. She just wholeheartedly accompanied him to heal his wounds, and almost completely forgot about another life.However, after being reminded at this moment, the shadow of that person thousands of miles away suddenly reappeared in her heart, which made her feel shocked and painful. ——Has it been nearly three months?It was the last date agreed upon before she left. She once told him that if she didn't come back after three months, it would mean that she lost her hands and sword skills, and would never return to the arena.However, in these three months, has he looked for her?Or has she given up completely and left her to fend for herself? After all, she had already left the Xuewei Sword in Tingxuelou, giving him what he wanted most. "This is for you." I heard him say in my ear. She lowered her head and saw the red sandalwood carving in the palm of her hand—it was a small statue of Guanyin from the South China Sea, holding a lotus flower, coming on waves, the knife was fluent and simple, and the tranquility and beauty of Guanyin were vividly portrayed with just a few knives. The skirt seems to be flying in the air. "Look, does it look like you?" He smiled. "Hmm." She was speechless. "Let's keep it as a souvenir, we may never see you again in the future." Yuan Zhonglou smiled, "Thank you for this journey." Su Wei stood there, fixedly looking at the Avalokitesvara statue in her hand, the red sandalwood Avalokitesvara still faintly splattered with blood, which seemed to be impossible to wash away—the smell of blood stimulated her memory, and her heart felt There is some soft emotion slowly rising, choking his throat. I don't want to go back.At that moment, she heard a voice say in her heart, getting louder and louder. Don't go back to that arena... don't get involved in killing and fighting again. That's not where she belongs.It turned out that no matter how much she yearned for the legend of dragon and phoenix among that person, she could not become that legend after all—she did not belong to that world of swords and swords, and that was not the life she wanted. However, when she thought of the man beside Luoshui, she felt an inseparable bond in her heart. "What's wrong with you?" Yuan Zhonglou was slightly surprised, and looked up at her, "Don't you like it?" But as soon as he looked up, he was taken aback. The sky was blue and the sun was shining brightly. It poured down from the sky like a waterfall, covering the woman who was meditating on the high platform.And the girl in scarlet clothes stood in the sun, silently pressing the Guanyin statue on her heart, raised her head and stared at the sky, her face was pale, and there seemed to be some kind of storm-like power hidden in the calm and peaceful. A drop of crystal clear tears silently slid down her pale cheeks, refracting bright light in the sunlight. As if stung by this light, he suddenly turned his eyes away, not daring to look directly. "I think," suddenly, I heard her looking at the sky, and said softly, "I won't go back." Thousands of miles away in Luoyang, someone was watching from a tall building and gently closed the letter in his hand. "How?" The woman in white standing behind him asked in a low voice. "Shi Yuxin said in the letter that Wei'er has been found in Miaojiang, and the poison has been cured. He can take her back to Luoyang in about ten days." Xiao Yunting breathed a sigh of relief, and tapped the railing with his folding fan, "Now I Don't worry... the four protectors may have just arrived in Yunnan, and I'm worried that they won't find Wei'er in three months." "That's great." Zhao Bingjie smiled faintly, "Moon Worship Sect is so polite, but we are overthinking." "From the day he sent the letter, it should arrive the day after tomorrow." Xiao Yunting folded the letter, lowered his eyes to look at the Tingxue Building hidden in the green shade below, but his voice was unpredictable, and there was a vague sense of relief "I'm finally coming back... It seems that everything should be over." "Huh?" She was slightly startled, and turned her head to the side. However, he changed the subject: "Your eyes...what did Doctor Mo say?" "That's it." Zhao Bingjie was indifferent, and suddenly felt a cool breeze on her cheeks, and she couldn't help but looked up in astonishment. During the conversation, Xiao Yunting stretched out his hand like lightning without warning, and his fingers flicked back less than an inch before her eyes - but her eyes were still so dark and dim, without any light.Already close to total blindness?He thought silently in his heart, and lowered his hands. As if she didn't understand what he did just now, Zhao Bingjie didn't speak again, but stood silently in the sunset, looking to the south.Xiao Yunting seldom saw her in daylight, this woman was like a shadow hidden in a dark bookstore, silent.Seeing it suddenly at this moment, I feel that the person under the sunset looks thinner and thinner, as if a gust of wind can blow her away. At that moment, he seemed to see the orphan girl who fell into his arms more than ten years ago. Has it been so many years? He thought silently, and stretched out his hand: "I'll take you back to Lanxue Pavilion." "No," she shook her head unexpectedly and smiled, "I want to watch the sunset here for a while longer." Xiao Yunting was slightly taken aback, but when his eyes dimmed, he stopped objecting, stood shoulder to shoulder with her, and silently looked towards the south.His eyes were deep and bottomless, and under the double pupils there seemed to be a faint flash of lightning. "Uncle and aunt, have you been away for six years?" Zhao Bingjie murmured, "I don't know where I am now." "It's their long-cherished wish to go boating on the five lakes, so it should be far away from the rivers and lakes now." Xiao Yunting smiled, "There was a letter half a year ago, saying that they were returning from Tianzhu and going directly to Fusang—Mother It is said that there is a medicine on Fusang Island, which may cure your eyes." "Really? Uncle and aunt treat me really kindly." Zhao Bingjie lowered her head and sighed slightly, "It's just my eyes, but they can't be cured anymore... Please don't bother about it." "They treat you more than they treat me," Xiao Yunting smiled, "Leave Tingxuelou and my son indifferent, but every time they write back, they always ask about you and say that you are not young. Let me help you urge you to marry early—your eyes, they will certainly not give up." "Really?" Zhao Bingjie smiled lightly, "Who would want a blind woman?" "Bing Jie, although you can't see with your eyes, you can see clearly in your heart than anyone else." Xiao Yunting smiled, "Whoever gets you will be a great blessing." She lowered her head and smiled, she seemed a little shy, and she didn't want to talk any more, so she changed the topic: "Miss Su will be back in a few days, then lead the children in the building to meet her by Luoshui, and wash her well. Congratulations on her safe return." "Okay." Xiao Yunting replied casually, stretching out his hand, "I'll take you back." The setting sun had already set, and the whole Luoyang was shrouded in twilight, as if an invisible hand stretched out to cover the sky. "No need," she lowered her head quietly, "I want to be alone." In the Lanxue Pavilion, the light was still as dim as ever. However, she sat alone in the darkness, staring blankly at the endless night in front of her eyes, stretched out her hand silently, and opened a hidden compartment under the case - there, a blue sharkskin short knife lay quietly there, with a falling knife on it. Dusty. Sitting in the darkness, she drew out the short knife, the light of the knife was like water, reflecting her pale face. The name of the knife is Chaolu. No one knew, but this should be the paired knife with Xiying Knife—it was originally a treasure bestowed by the old man Xuegu to his two disciples.One of them was in the hands of the eldest disciple Xiao Yiqing, and later became the supreme symbol of commanding the rivers and lakes; while the other morning dew was given to the youngest female disciple Chi Xiaotai, which was lost in history long ago. And die in silence in the Shenbing Pavilion. The dew in the morning and the shadow in the evening, the youth in an instant, will never last forever. No one in this world remembers it anymore, and everyone remembers only the pair of dragons and phoenixes in the world, and only the pair of evening shadows of blood and myrtle—it and its master were forgotten by this world and locked in this lonely place. "I'll give it to you," the woman on the sickbed held her hand many years ago, and looked at her with a strange look, as if she could see into the depths of her soul, "You are very much like me... Maybe one day, you can use it." "Hold on to this knife, when the pain is unbearable, use it to end it!" Chi Xiaotai... That woman who has been confined in the Shenbing Pavilion all her life seems to have a pair of eyes that can see through everything.But...if she had seen everything, why did she still hand over this knife to her? Just like she never succeeded in killing Lord Xiao thirty years ago, could it be that she hopes that she can fulfill her wish? ——But Yun Ting was her only disciple, the only comfort and warmth she had lived alone for decades, why would she give such a knife to herself before she died? Zhao Bingjie sighed slightly, and could faintly hear the sound of her breath being cut in half on the blade—more than twenty years have passed, and this morning dew is covered in dust in the dark night, is it still the same as before, looking forward to it day and night? How about gathering with the owner of Xiying? It's a pity that the time of gathering is the time when swords meet. Nearly a month later, Yuan Zhonglou's injury has gradually improved, and his legs are no longer seriously injured, only his left hand is still unable to move freely.However, he didn't want to stay in the Moon Palace for a long time, and proposed to return to Tengchong with Mi Danyi.Ling Jun agreed to his request, and was going to help him see his last injury in the medicine room, so he let him go down the mountain and leave. Su Wei was arranging things in Suzaku Hall, preparing to leave the Moon Palace tomorrow, and Ozuki was helping her.Flipping through the pages, she suddenly froze for a moment, picked up a child's clothes and looked at them again and again. "Mi Danyi, did you fall and get hurt again?" She couldn't help being surprised when she saw a blood stain on the cuff of her clothes.However, the little Burmese girl didn't seem to understand Chinese, so she just looked at her and smiled, grimacing, and ran away. "Really," she sighed, helplessly, "Be careful and fall again!" Obscure Moon smiled at the side: "Is the girl going back to Tingxue Tower?" Su Wei's fingers paused for a moment, she smiled slightly, and shook her head. "Why? The girl isn't going back?" Ozuki was surprised, "Where are you going?" "I haven't made up my mind yet... Anyway, I don't want to go back to that Jianghu again." Su Wei shook her head and sighed, "Maybe I will send Chonglou and Danyi Hui Tengchong to settle down first, and then go find my master— —I've been looking for them for years." "Ah? So the girl is looking for someone?" Ozuki thought for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Maybe Lord Lingjun can help you." "Really?" Su Wei was stunned. "Of course, Lord Lingjun is omniscient and omnipotent," said Ozuki solemnly, "he is the messenger of the gods, and he can talk to the moon god——as long as the girl is sincere, whatever you ask, you can do it right away." Luna will help you find the answer." "Really?" Su Wei still felt incredible, and shook her head with a smile. "Of course, girl, don't believe it," Ooki said seriously, "In Miaojiang, the priest is a god—the priest is not here now, and Lingjun who replaces him is also a god. His power is unlimited." Seeing her confident eyes, Su Wei restrained her smile. "Really?" She repeated in a low voice again, but there was a hint of hesitation in her tone. "Really? Can she really say she can't go back?" In the dark temple, someone asked in a low voice. "That's right, Miss Su said she doesn't want to listen to Xuelou again," the woman's voice echoed respectfully, "She said to send those two to Tengchong first, and then go back to find her master." "Master?" The person behind the curtain pondered, "Isn't her master just..." His tone suddenly paused, he didn't know what he thought of, the man in the temple fell silent, tapped his palm lightly with the flute, and there was an unpredictable smile in his eyes: "It's really God helping me." "I think, Ms. Su will come and tell you about this matter herself," the woman bowed slightly, "because the subordinates have already suggested to her to come and seek a fortune-telling from your lord, and it seems that she is dubious." "Well done, Obscure Moon." Ling Jun sneered slightly behind the curtain, "The plan can enter the next step." "yes." "Is everything arranged in Luoyang?" "Yes. Everything is going according to your lord's plan-manpower from all parties has been put in place one after another, and Director Zhao has been keeping in touch with us. It is estimated that Shi Yu and his party will arrive in Luoyang in three days, and our manpower will follow closely behind." "That's good..." The person behind the curtain pondered, "Keep an eye on Zhao Bingjie. I always feel uneasy about this woman." "Yes. If the adults feel worried, then it is enough to eradicate her after the plan is completed." Ozuki whispered, her tone was cold and ruthless, "Anyway, she is a blind person, and it is useless after the plan is completed. Could it be Do you still want to keep her by your side?" "You talk too much, Obscure Moon." Ling Jun interrupted her coldly, "I have my own plan." "Yes!" The woman kept silent, and immediately prostrated herself on the ground.After a long while, he hesitated again: "However...Miss Su found blood on Mi Danyi's sleeve today." "What?" The eyes of the person behind the curtain changed, startled, "Is she suspicious?" "Not really," Lu Yue said in a low voice, "But Mi Danyi is too young after all, and she is too careless in doing things—if she continues to do so after going to Tengchong with Miss Su, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for adults." In the darkness, Ling Jun tapped his palm lightly with his flute, and his eyes behind the mask were changing. "Got it," he finally replied indifferently, "I'll keep an eye on her." "Yes." The woman whispered, "Please check it out, sir." "However, Obscure Moon," behind the curtain, Ling Jun looked at the prostrate maid, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his tone became cold and insightful, "Do you want all the women who come close to me, no matter how far or near, young or old? How about getting rid of it?" Ozuki suddenly trembled, and was so trembling that she couldn't speak. "Restrain your obsession," Ling Jun stood up behind the curtain, coldly, "Do your part, don't let the fire of greed burn your mind and eyes—otherwise, for me You would be useless." He stood up with a flick of his sleeves, the corner of his clothes brushed against the woman's pale cheeks, and left quietly in the dark like this. "By the way," when he entered the secret room, he suddenly turned around and ordered, "Tomorrow, prepare a puppet for me." "Puppet?" Ozuki was taken aback. "No need to ask." Entering the clouds at the height of the Moon Palace. However, at the place closest to the moon on Vulture Mountain, there was a dead silence.The curtains in the white stone masonry room are low, and even in the daytime, no light penetrates in. In the darkness, countless lamps are burning, reflecting on the pool in the room, as if the Milky Way is shining brightly.Not a single maid, not a single voice, even the wind seemed to stop flowing. This is Tianxin Pavilion, the place where Minghe Yingyue, the leader of worshiping the moon, lived in seclusion for thirty years.For decades, this place has been the highest forbidden area of ​​the Moon Palace, and no one is allowed to approach it except the priests. In the room, a woman was wearing a peacock gold robe, sitting quietly by the pool, leaning forward to look at the water, her long, jet-black hair, which was one foot long, hanging down into the water, spreading like algae, and spreading to the entire pool. The room was silent. "Master." A young man in a white robe suddenly appeared on the curtain, saluted outside, and said respectfully, "Subordinate Lingjun, I have come to pay homage to you." However, the woman by the pool didn't seem to hear it at all, she just lowered her head and stared quietly at the reflection in the water—it's only spring, but the water in this dark room is actually full of strange golden lotus flowers. Blossoms are dazzling, reflecting the beauty of the room. What's even more strange is that those flowers bloomed from the tip of her hair. The Lord of Worshiping the Moon raised his wrist, cut off one of the lotus flowers with his slender fingers, and placed them carefully on the shore——there, the lotus leaf was used as the clothing, the lotus flower was the head, and the lotus roots were the limbs, forming a human body. shape. She let out a breath, her eyes focused. "Master." The people outside the curtain were still kneeling, and whispered again. The leader of Minghe still turned a deaf ear, just looked at the human figure in front of him, stretched out his left hand, and hung it above.Suddenly, she made a wrong finger on her right hand, squeezed a tactic, and began to mutter a mantra—following the secret mantra that was spit out like water, blood beads suddenly ooze from the tip of her left finger, drop by drop, like a bright red It fell like a grape, dripping into the figures on the ground. Blood infiltrates from the fracture of the lotus root, winding along the pores of the lotus root as if following a blood vessel. In just an instant, the pure white lotus root seemed to be infused with blood! The secret mantra was still spitting out, the leader of Minghe raised his finger suddenly, and said in a low voice, "Get up!" As if being pulled by an invisible lead, the figure made of lotus on the ground suddenly stood up! Across the curtain, it seems to understand that a very strange and terrifying spell is going on in the room. The people outside the curtain hold their breath, and the eyes behind the mask show an expression of awe-the lotus pond metamorphosis, what a profound kind of magic is this? Taboo technique! The leader has been confined alone for thirty years, and he has reached the state where he can endow all things with life and death. However, the figure of the lotus flower in the room just stood up and walked a few steps according to the instruction of the Moon Worshiper, and suddenly stood motionless by the lotus pond like a puppet that was off its strings. "Go!" The Lord of Worshiping the Moon frowned, stretched out his fingertips to tap the pool full of golden lotus flowers, and motioned for the figure to enter the water. However, the figure who had sucked the blood and obtained the spiritual energy didn't hear it at all, and stopped by the water for a while, as if attracted by something, suddenly turned around, and rushed towards the door with the spell on it! The leader of worshiping the moon was startled, and pointed sharply: "Shut up!" The figure seemed to be stretched by an invisible rope, and stopped at the moment it touched the door—because the brake was too violent, its limbs even shifted, twisting terribly.However, the hands and feet made of lotus roots were still trembling, as if they were desperately stabbed by the needles, trying to go beyond the control of the caster and rush to the moonlight outside the door. Blood flowed out drop by drop from the white lotus root hole, and it was dark red and terrifying. The people outside the curtain gasped. "Return!" The Moon Worshiper sat by the pool and ordered in a low voice. The figure was pulled by the invisible lead wire, seemed to be shaken suddenly, and turned around reluctantly—suddenly, it let out a scream that didn't sound like a human voice, stretched out its arms, and rushed towards the caster! "Teacher be careful!" The people outside the curtain lost their voices. At that moment, there was a sudden gust of wind blowing through the room, and it seemed that someone suddenly shot to stop it in the dark. The moment the human figure fell down, it was suddenly frozen, and twelve flower stalks flew towards it, and they were all nailed into its body, just submerging into the corresponding twelve death points of the human body—as if it was driven from the inside by a huge force. Destroyed from outside, the lotus root shattered in an instant, blood and snow-white debris splashed out, and turned into powder in an instant. The golden lotus flowers on the tip of the hair are withering one after another, and there is no more fragrance on the empty pool.As if his energy was exhausted in an instant, the Moon Worshiper prostrated himself by the pool, his face pale, his long black hair winding into the water, and the water rippled. She moved her lips slightly, let out a sigh, and closed her eyes exhaustedly. The man who flashed like a ghost and smashed the demon with one blow returned to the opposite side of the pool again, sat silently in the darkness, put away the power that had just been flashed by the thunder, and silently lowered his head to look at the empty pool with extremely complicated eyes. Under the water, the pale boy's face was still there, with a gentle and serene smile. The corresponding headless body was still sleeping silently. The people outside the door seemed to be able to guess what happened inside, and they bent down deeply: "Thank you for your help, senior." "Another monster has been summoned." The man in the darkness looked at the empty lotus pond and sighed in a low voice, "Priest Jiaruo feeds the demon with his body, and he is locked underground forever. The obsession is immortal, if you insist on using the remnant body to revive it, you will only suffer evil spirits in vain." "Senior taught me that." Ling Jun bowed outside and sighed, "It's just that the leader has held on to this thought for thirty years, and he did not hesitate to use his own blood to transform into a lotus flower and reverse yin and yang. In the past, my master couldn't make him give up. Now this subordinate There is nothing else I can do - I can only rely on the seniors to protect the Dharma here to avoid any accidents." The person in the darkness nodded silently: "If unfortunately a monster is summoned, I will naturally try my best to stop it——I came here from Shensha Valley four years ago, and it was because of your entrustment." "Thank you, senior." Ling Jun bowed deeply. "Go." The man in the dark said lightly, as if he was tired, "Don't let anyone disturb me." "Yes." Ling Jun bowed to leave, but there was a strange smile in his eyes - there was no sound in the room, and no one saw it: the man in the dark was sitting by the pool, with an impressive expression on his face. Exactly the same mask! On the second day, Su Wei and his party left the Moon Palace as scheduled. She has been taken care of for many days and is grateful. When she walked down the mountain, she looked back at the white-robed priest who was seeing him off at the gate of the palace. When she arrived in the distance, she bowed slightly and returned the salute from a distance under the arch.Su Wei stood up straight.For some reason, when she looked at the spotless white robe under the blue sky, she felt a sudden shock in her heart, and she felt a strange feeling. ——It seems that something ominous has already quietly started. Here, Obscure Moon had already ordered people to prepare the carriage, and sent them back to Tengchong.As soon as the gorgeous car door opened, Mi Danyi jumped up happily, sat on the cushion and waved, yelling for the two of them to come up too.When Yuan Chonglou was about to board the car, he suddenly heard Ozuki softly say from the side: "My lord has a gift for Mr. Yuan." The disciple of the Moon Worship Sect next to him took out a box and presented it respectfully.The box is heavy to the touch, and I don't know what it contains. Su Wei was also about to get in the car, but she seemed to have some unfulfilled wish. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but look back again.Ling Jun was still standing under the vaulted gate of the Moon Palace, looking at her from a distance, as if he was also waiting for something.Against the blue sky and blue sky, that white robe is like the first snow, with a vague aura that does not belong to this world. Is...is this person really a god?Does he really know all the secrets? Su Wei hesitated for a while, then suddenly made up her mind, turned around and walked over. "Kalambinga?" Yuan Zhonglou was surprised, but she had already gone far in a blink of an eye. She swept up the Vulture Mountain in one breath, and stood in front of Ling Jun with a calm breath.The person wearing the mask stood at the entrance of the Moon Palace, as if guessing that she would come back, before she could speak, he laughed behind the mask and raised his hand to press his forehead.For some reason, this movement was a little stiff and strange, which made Su Wei stunned for a moment. "Tell me," he said lightly, his voice was ethereal, "I can tell you the answer." Su Wei looked at him and hesitated: "Where is my... my master? Do you really know?" "Of course I know." Ling Jun's eyes were sunk in the deep shadow behind the mask, without a trace of expression.However, his answer was without hesitation: "Your master has already gone where they should go." "Ah?" Su Wei was stunned and couldn't help laughing. ——What kind of answer is this kind of ambiguous answer?It turned out that this omniscient god in Miaojiang was no different from a charlatan. However, before she could express her disappointment, what he said next surprised her—— "Your little master passed away due to illness five years ago, and was buried under the green grass of Beimang Mountain by your master, to accompany dragons and phoenixes to sleep forever." Ling Jun continued to answer lightly, every word and every sentence Like thunder, "According to her will, your master did not set up a tombstone, so if you go there to look for it, you probably won't find it." Su Wei opened her eyes wide in astonishment, and looked at the white-robed man wearing a mask——for a moment, she felt that what was hidden under the mask was no longer a living person, but an unfathomable person. gods. She recalled his words word by word, and couldn't help but tremble all over: Yes... Yes!If it is true as he said, everything can be explained.No wonder she saw traces of the master's visit on Beiman Mountain, no wonder the little master disappeared suddenly, and there was no news from the world. If it wasn't for the sudden change, how could the little master leave him alone like this. "As for your master..." The eyes under the mask were expressionless, but the words were still spit out word by word: "He is still alive. Moreover, he should be in Miaojiang." "What?" Su Wei blurted out, "Master is in Miaojiang?" "Yes..." Ling Jun sighed slightly. Su Wei stood at the entrance of the Moon Palace, dazed for a moment, her thoughts surging like a tide.She didn't see that Ling Jun had turned around after answering her question, and left along the Milky Way paved with white sand. "Hey! Hey! Wait a minute!" Su Wei came back to her senses and hurriedly chased after her, "I still have questions to ask you! Where is my master in Miaojiang?" However, Ling Jun didn't stop, and he didn't look back at her. He still walked away with his clothes flying, as if he was walking against the wind.In the air, his voice could only be vaguely heard, vague and uncertain: "Master Xuewei, you have too many questions... If you leak too many secrets, you will be punished by God, so please go find the answer yourself..." "Hey, you..." She was stunned for a while, unable to speak, and could only watch him leave. At this moment, Ozuki, who had finished seeing off the guests down the mountain, had already returned to the gate of the palace, ready to follow her master in.When she turned sideways, she turned her head to Su Wei and smiled softly, "How about it, Miss Su? Master Ling Jun is a god-like figure, right?" "..." She stood there in a daze, unable to speak. "Girl arrived in Tengchong, please let us know if you encounter any problems, don't be polite," Ozuki bowed slightly, "Master Lingjun will definitely solve your worries." Before she could answer, all the maids bowed to see the guests off, and the gate of the Moon Palace was slowly closed. Su Wei stood there, looking at the closed door of the Moon Palace, still not recovering from the trance. The little master died of illness?how come!She wished she could find the master right away and ask all of this clearly.However, the world is vast and the Miao territory is so vast that she doesn't know where to find her only relative. “玛！玛！”耳边听到小女孩的声音，把她从沉思里拉回来。 蜜丹意在马车上已经等得不耐烦，挥着小手招呼她前去。苏薇勉强对她笑了一笑，返身回到了马车上，关上了车门，和他们并肩而坐，却是长久不说一句话。 “怎么了？”原重楼微愕。 “……”她沉默了片刻，忽然间抱住膝盖，埋下了头去。 “小师父死了！”她爆发出一声啜泣，“他说……小师父死了！” 原重楼愕然，怔了一怔，明白过来她说的“他”是指灵均，不由低声：“别相信这个，这世上没有神——他不过是胡说而已。” 然而苏薇拼命摇着头，哭得越发厉害。 “不……不。我觉得他说的是对的……小师父一定是早就死了！” “好了，不要哭，不要哭。”似乎觉得双腿被压得酸痛，原重楼微微皱了皱眉头，彷佛也不知如何劝慰她，只是看着匍匐在自己膝盖上哭泣的少女，想了一想，小心翼翼地伸出手，摸了一摸她的头发，“不要哭了。” 蜜丹意在一旁，睁大了黑色的眼睛看着他们，没有说话。 马车沿着山路飞驰，奔向腾冲。
