Chapter 9 Chapter Nine Nightmare

"Ah! Ah!" Every morning when he woke up, Shen Che would scream uncontrollably, hid in the corner and shook his neck desperately, trying to shake off the thing behind him.However, the more she moved, the tighter the baby behind her was clinging to her. She screamed desperately, clutching her back until she was exhausted. At this time, Funan could only look at the pale girl with sad eyes, but couldn't say a word of comfort. Ah Che is still a child... Her body has grown up in the darkness, but her character and mind have remained the same as when she was imprisoned in the underwater prison ten years ago. She still has a child's heart when she is a young girl.

She relied on him as before, treating him as the closest person in the world, occupying all his time like a child monopolizing a toy.Many times when Miubi came to see him, she would show hostility and anger unabashedly, showing sharp minions like a small beast, so that the two of them could not say a word. However, if Miubi is not around, Shen Che will become very smart and obedient, pestering him to ask this and that, acting coquettish and angry like many years ago-in fact, Shen Che is completely unaware of what he is doing, Just take it for granted that time is still stuck in ten years ago.

——The time when she could monopolize Funan. However, it was not an easy day for Funan.The turbulent and dark life in the moon palace many years ago came back overnight, and the nightmare was shrouded again, making him feel like he was facing a big enemy every night when the night came, and he couldn't sleep. In order to calm down the demon that revived on Shen Che during the night, he dug out chapters on spells that he hadn't read for a long time, arranged a powerful barrier in the bedroom, and firmly locked Shen Che in the room at night.He also secretly poured enough rosemary every night for dinner—so that the revived monster could no longer use her body to move.

So, every night, every night, he guarded the room full of spells and barriers, with the evil sword across his knees, ready to attack. The deformed demon often opened his eyes to look at him, showing a weird smile, but he didn't struggle too much. Ah Che didn't feel anything, but fell asleep early and sweetly every night, and woke up in a daze the next day.However, her spirit was weakening day by day, and sometimes she would faint suddenly while talking to him during the day. Funan knew that it was the demon possessing her that was absorbing the essence of her body bit by bit. After the monster escaped from the bottom of the water, it was injured twice in the bamboo house and the moon palace, and its vitality was already seriously injured.At this moment, it is not showing weakness by being dormant, but just taking the opportunity to recover.After it sucks up all of Ah Che's energy, it will come out again.

However, even though he was anxious, there was no way to separate that demon from Shen Che's body. At night, he would occasionally talk to the demon, such as asking about its origin and intentions. "It was her who let me go." Facing his inquiry, the monster that was gradually regaining its strength inserted one hand into Shenche's cervical spine, shook her head, smiled strangely, and spoke slowly and coherently, " I was trapped in the body of that woman, Shen Ying, for hundreds of years...She was underwater, isolated from the world, and cut off all evil thoughts...I couldn't find a chance to recover. I was trapped for more than a hundred years." The monster entangled on Shen Che's back Going up, he opened his eyes and sneered, "Fortunately, this guy was imprisoned in the water dungeon... that gave me a chance to escape."

Funan suddenly raised his head, looking at that strange eye. Is this the part that disappeared from Ah Che's memory? "Shen Ying has been lonely for too long, and he likes her as soon as he sees her. He teaches her everything without being wary. Because he believes that she is 'good'." Vaguely, the monster laughed and fiddled with it with one hand. Shen Che's sleeping body, "Unexpectedly, in the end, she only used one spell to absorb all of Shen Ying's hundreds of years of cultivation!" "Hahaha... At that time, Shen Ying's expression was so funny! I could even hear the crackling sound of her heart." The demon laughed wildly, with a terrifying expression, "She collapsed in that instant! In vain She has worked so hard for a hundred years to suppress all evil thoughts in her heart and stick to the principles in her heart, but in the end, isn't she vulnerable?"

Seeing the demon laugh wildly on Shen Che's back, Funan subconsciously clenched his sword tightly, feeling that the saber was about to jump out of the scabbard.However, there was a violent tremor in his heart: indeed, it was Ah Che who absorbed Shen Ying's cultivation and released the Nightmare! So... is there a shadow in her heart? As he spoke slowly, the baby's eyes gradually closed, and fell asleep in the sunlight that came in. "Huh..." It was already dawn, and when Shen Che woke up, seeing Funan's staring eyes, he couldn't help but blurted out, a faint blush appeared on his pale cheeks, "You... what are you looking at me for? "

Immediately, she noticed that her face was white again, and she frantically rubbed against the corner of the wall again, covering up the deformed monster behind her. However, her strength was no longer enough, just such a small movement made her panting continuously, her face turned pale. "Ache..." Funan sighed softly, stroked her long black hair, wanted to say something but finally fell silent.Such a rate of exhaustion... Soon, she will wither and die, right?Poor her spent ten years under the sunless water, now she managed to escape, but she faced death immediately. Thinking about it, he clenched the Quexie Sword again, feeling something in his heart was about to move.

But Shen Che couldn't feel his anxiety, just blindly happy, chirping: "Brother Funan, are you not going out today? Play hopscotch with me here, okay?" "Hopscotch?" Funan didn't know what he was thinking, so he just asked casually. "En!" Shen Che nodded excitedly.She couldn't remember who taught her this at all, but she still firmly remembered every detail of the jump. "Don't move around, Ah Che, take a good rest and recharge your spirits." Funan pushed her back on the couch, shook her head, as if she had made up her mind, her eyes brightened frighteningly, "I'll go out for a while, before sunset Just come back."

He stood up with the sword, his eyes sharp. No... really no!He is going to kill... Even if the other party is strangers and has no grudges or enmities, he will kill!Even if there is no guarantee that Nightmare will release Ah Che as promised, he still has to try!He has always been a soft and cowardly person, and it is difficult for him to abide by his moral bottom line.So, what if you allow yourself to violate the principle again today? "No!" Seeing him get up, Shen Che was a little angry, "Come with me, don't go out!" "Don't make trouble, I'm going to do something important." Funan brows were a little disturbed, and he roughly pushed her back on the couch, "Stay here obediently, don't move around, I'll be back soon. "

"You hurt me!" There was a bruise on his wrist, and Shen Che, who had never been treated like this before, became a little angry. He glared at him, grabbed the hem of his clothes and refused to let go, "Go for what? Go Are you looking for Miubi?...Don't go! Don't leave me alone!" "Stop making trouble!" Murderous intent floated in his heart, Funan cut off the corner of his clothes with a loud shout, turned around and walked out, "I have something important to do, I will be back soon!" The corner of the clothes snapped, and the girl who lost her center of gravity fell on the couch and didn't move for a long time. "What's important? Ha, what's important..." The low words came from the couch, but it was impossible to distinguish whether it was from Shen Che's mouth or the baby behind him. Shen Che suddenly raised his head from the couch with sharp eyes. She didn't realize that she had become extremely sensitive, suspicious and unreasonable at some point. But after a few days, the manjusawa outside had begun to wither. Between the tombs, it seems that the red tide has receded, leaving a messy red on the ground. Funan passed through the withering red flowers and walked up to Lingjiu Mountain, with small flames blowing on his clothes.When he walked to the edge of the cemetery, he turned his head and forgot about the north—there, at the end of the cemetery, there was a lonely hut, which was the residence of Mibi. Due to the sudden appearance of Shen Che in the past few days, the relationship between them suddenly became tense. She has not appeared for three consecutive days. I don't know if it is out of anger or something.He stood on the edge of the cemetery, looked there for a long time, sighed slightly, and turned around - if Shenche is a piece of uncut crystal, sparkling and bright; then Miopi is a black pearl, firm and silence. He had known her a long time ago, but the two were not familiar with each other. If it wasn't for civil strife, if they weren't expelled together, they might just be indifferent throughout their lives.But after leaving the place of the Moon Palace, life returned to the starting point.They got to know each other again, and after being together for five years, they gradually became mature from being unfamiliar, and finally established such a silent friendship in adversity. However, this peace was completely broken by the girl who returned from the ground. If...if he could leave Ah Che alone and completely stay out of it, then maybe this kind of life could continue, right?If it wasn't for the deep and deep pain in his heart when he saw the crystal doll crying bitterly in the past, he probably could have lived in this way indifferently. However, when he saw Ah Che sitting among the shards of the mirror, spreading his bloody palms and weeping, it seemed as if something revived in his heart. Points gushed out from the bottom of my heart that had been calm for a long time.Yes, it was that voice—it was the despair of that young man ten years ago when he was powerless to stop his master's decision; it was the indelible wound left in his heart by the momentary retreat and hesitation when the underwater hole opened five years ago. For the third time, she appeared in front of him, asking for help and shelter, how could he ignore her? ! Knowing that there are many dangers, but this time, he can't take another step back. He decided to go to the Moon Palace.However, this kind of thing can't be told to Miubi no matter what - if she finds out, even if she can't try her best to stop him, she will follow him to the moon palace desperately, right? On an autumn afternoon, the setting sun faintly shone on the bloody Manjusawa. He stood at the end of the cemetery and looked at the hut in the distance, but countless thoughts passed through his mind in an instant. "Young Master Funan, what are you doing standing here?" Suddenly, a question was heard in the ear.Before turning his head, he smelled the smell of tobacco, Funan suddenly came back to his senses, and saw Yansheng wiping his sweat with a hoe beside him. "Look at the dark clouds in the north, it looks like it's going to rain heavily tonight." Yan Sheng, with loess still on his shoes, smoked a few puffs of cigarette while standing to relieve his fatigue. Make up the grave—otherwise those who are sleeping underground may not be safe tonight!" Funan was in a trance, didn't hear what Yansheng was going to say, just smiled at him, turned around and started on the road with his sword in hand. "Ah? Young Master is going to the Moon Palace too?" Seeing him stepping on the chariot road leading to the Moon Palace on the east side, Yan Sheng was startled, "I can't go - didn't the church say that Young Master is not allowed to step into the Moon Palace again?" One step?" Funan shook his head, but he didn't notice that Yansheng used the word "also", he just said indifferently, "Don't worry about that..." After a pause, he looked at the other side of the cemetery, sighed suddenly, and whispered to Yansheng: "If... If you still can't come back before dawn, then please go to the north and talk to Miubi, and ask her to replace you." I take care of Archer." Yan Sheng was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly threw the hookah, and shouted: "What? Mr. Funan, don't you know? Miobi, she went to Lingjiu Mountain yesterday morning!" "What?!" In case of a lightning strike, Funan suddenly turned around. "My lord, you really don't know? I saw Miss Miopi going along the road two days ago!" Yan Sheng looked at Funan with a pale face in surprise, and murmured, "I thought you knew...Young master went up this time. , didn’t you go to Miubi and come back?” "..." Funan opened his mouth, but didn't say a word. In the past few days, he has put all his thoughts on calming Shen Che's emotions, and never thought about what would happen to him with Miubi's personality after the first argument with him.What is she doing in the Moon Palace?Could it be... Could it be that he was going to inform and tell the leader of Tianlai the news of Ah Che's escape? At that moment, the cold electricity shot down from his back, Funan didn't have time to think about it, and immediately rushed away!
