Jun Xiaomo had roasted some meat and was walking back with a plate when she suddenly noticed a strong gaze falling on her. Looking along the line of sight, she met a pair of dark and deep eyes. The owner of the eyes was looking at him with an extremely complex look.
"Rong Ruihan, are you awake?" Jun Xiaomo didn't want to bother to delve into the meaning of Rong Ruihan's eyes, so he simply greeted him in a normal tone and put the plate with barbecue on the table. .
"Hmm~~ This barbecue is really delicious! Girl, your skills are very good." Chi Lao sniffed the aroma in the air and came to the table in three leaps. He turned his hands and took out a pair of chopsticks from the storage ring. He couldn't wait to take out a pair of chopsticks. He picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed it and muttered, "It's delicious."
Jun Xiaomo smiled. Even though she had only known Mr. Chi for a short time, she still liked this old man very much because his behavior was upright and principled, which was in line with Jun Xiaomo's philosophy of life.
"Since you think it tastes good, senior, then try to eat as much as possible. There are still many grilled over there." Jun Xiaomo said to Mr. Chi.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad." Chi Lao swallowed, gave Jun Xiaomo a thumbs up, and said smoothly, "Girl, I think your talent is pretty good, do you want to consider being my eleventh generation?" Disciple?"
Jun Xiaomo was stunned.
Chi Lao raised his eyelids and said: "You can deceive others, but you can't deceive my eyes. Are you a demon cultivator? And you also have an acquired demon body for some reason. To be honest, I don't quite understand why. Your parents are both cultivators, but you have become a demon cultivator. But if you continue to use the skills of the Xuyang Sect, it will definitely not be of any benefit to you. What do you think, do you want to consider joining my disciple?"
Rong Ruihan looked at Jun Xiaomo with a hint of expectation.
However, Jun Xiaomo only hesitated for a few breaths before shaking his head and refusing. She said tactfully: "Thank you for your kindness, senior. In fact, I have now found a cultivation path that suits me, and I am not ready to make any changes for the time being. And... there are too many things in the sect that interest me. It’s hard to let go and I can’t leave gracefully.”
The most important point is that He Zhang and the others are still staring at Lintian Peak with eager eyes. She must find a way to protect her parents and her brothers at Lintian Peak.
However, Rong Ruihan, who didn't know that Jun Xiaomo was reborn, apparently misunderstood Jun Xiaomo's words. He thought that the person Jun Xiaomo couldn't let go was just the sweetheart of the woman in red in the dream, Qin Lingyu. Or... Ye Xiuwen.
Thinking of the atmosphere between Jun Xiaomo and Ye Xiuwen, Rong Ruihan couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.
But to be honest, if "Yao Mo" was really the woman in the dream, then Rong Ruihan would rather the person he fell in love with was Ye Xiuwen, rather than the selfish Qin Lingyu.
Mr. Chi sighed and said: "It's rare for me, an old man, to want to take on a disciple. Why do I dislike both of them? That's all. Taking one is enough to annoy me. If I take one less, I will be happy and free." It’s a pity that there will be no barbecue to eat in the future…”
Jun Xiaomo: "..."
I bet you want to take me on as your apprentice because of my barbecue...
Rong Ruihan's heavy thoughts were diluted by Chi Lao's words. At the same time, he also made a decision.
"Xiaomo, I have something to say to you. Can you come over here?" Rong Ruihan said to Jun Xiaomo seriously.
Rong Ruihan used to often call Jun Xiaomo "Brother Yao". He rarely called Jun Xiaomo "Xiao Mo", and he rarely addressed Jun Xiao in such a gentle or even gentle voice. When Mo spoke, Jun Xiaomo was shocked again.
Well, even though he was a little surprised, Jun Xiaomo nodded and followed Rong Ruihan deeper into the forest.
Seeing the two people leaving together, Mr. Chi shook his head and sighed: "Xiaochi has another love rival... I, an old man like me, really don't understand the world of young people."
After reaching a place out of sight of Mr. Chi and others, Rong Ruihan stopped, turned around and stood face to face with Jun Xiaomo.
Jun Xiaomo didn't know what Rong Ruihan was going to say, so he could only look at him and blink in confusion.
Rong Ruihan silently roamed his eyes on Jun Xiaomo's still slightly immature face for a moment, then slowly said: "Since I was six years old, I have been dreaming, and the protagonist in this dream is always The same person made me feel that this was not an ordinary dream.”
Jun Xiaomo laughed dryly, not knowing how to reply to Rong Ruihan.
She silently complained in her mind: Could it be that this guy called me out because he wanted to talk about his dream
Rong Ruihan didn't care about Jun Xiaomo's reaction and continued: "In the dream, there was a woman who liked to wear red. She was a demon cultivator. There was often a large group of people behind her who wanted to chase her, but every time those people They would all in turn be harvested by that woman... At first, I didn't see the woman's appearance clearly, and I even thought that the woman was my mother-in-law...
"Later, as the woman fell asleep more and more, I finally saw her appearance clearly - there was a portrait of my mother-in-law in the palace. She was not my mother-in-law, but someone... whom I had never seen before. people… "
Rong Ruihan fell into his own thoughts, and as time passed in the dream, he described the dreams hidden in his memory to Jun Xiaomo one by one.
He didn't plan to say that much originally. He just wanted to remind Jun Xiaomo to be careful about Qin Lingyu. But for some reason, he couldn't bear to face this very familiar face that was slightly different from the woman in red in the dream. I told them all when I lived.
Because Rong Ruihan had been recalling the contents of the dream, his eyes seemed to have passed through the woods and into unknown years, so he did not notice that Jun Xiaomo looked at him with an increasingly shocked expression. His face became increasingly pale.
"After that night, the woman in red was pregnant with my child. I should have taken them to my side immediately, but unfortunately there were traitors among my men at that time. I was seriously injured, and things around me became... It's not safe. In addition, she doesn't know me at all, and she always thought that the father of the child is the guy named Qin. I can only retreat for the time being to recuperate and level up, and entrust them to the few subordinates I can still trust. Already…”
"That was the thing I regretted the most in my dream, because after the retreat, I only found her battered and mutilated body. I killed those subordinates who did not do their job well, and also took the cultivation world All the eight sects in the world were slaughtered, but she and her children in the dream could not survive... "
Rong Ruihan did not describe in detail how he avenged the woman in red in his dream, but Jun Xiaomo knew very well that the price to be paid to destroy all the eight sects in the world of cultivation was indescribable. Not huge.
In her previous life, she thought that after her parents died and Fengmen was destroyed, the only person still willing to be kind to her was Ye Xiuwen.
She never thought that there was another person who had paid attention to her for so long and was even willing to avenge herself after her death...
Jun Xiaomo would not doubt the authenticity of Rong Ruihan's words, because she had never told anyone what happened in her previous life, not to mention that Rong Ruihan described it all from the perspective of another person.
Also, the children mentioned by Rong Ruihan.
Jun Xiaomo never thought that the identity of the child's father, who had never been able to figure out in her previous life, would be suddenly placed in front of her like this.
Jun Xiaomo felt suffocated for a moment.
Rong Ruihan had stopped recalling. When he slowly pulled out his thoughts from the memory of the dream, he saw Jun Xiaomo, whose face was full of tears and looking at him blankly.
"Hey, you little girl, you must have been moved by the story I told you, right? Don't worry, this is just a dream, it didn't happen."
Rong Ruihan laughed deeply and comforted.
Jun Xiaomo pursed his lips and wiped away the tears on his face with his palms. Covering it up, he pretended to smile lightly and said: "Yes, it's just a dream, but what you said was so true that it made me laugh. I was moved to tears.”
Only Jun Xiaomo knew how bitter and helpless the smile under her palm was.
Rong Ruihan stretched out his hand, hesitated for a moment, then patted her shoulder and said: "The reason why I told you this dream is just to make you more alert. Don't be like the woman in my dream. Love Wrong person."
Rong Ruihan originally wanted to say directly to Jun Xiaomo, "The woman in red in the dream is you", but he thought for a moment and still did not say it.
Because these things have not happened yet, there is no need for him to add too much psychological burden to Jun Xiaomo.
What's more, in the dream, "Yao Mo" should have never known him, but now that they have met, does it mean that everything in the dream will also change
In this way, Rong Ruihan felt that there was no need to speak out.
Let him keep the true identity of the woman in red in his dream forever in his heart.
Jun Xiaomo also noticed Rong Ruihan's thoughts, and was moved in his fluctuating heart. At the same time, he felt relieved to temporarily avoid the embarrassment - after learning that Rong Ruihan was the father of the child, Jun Xiaomo Xiaomo really didn't know how to face this person who had given so much to her in her previous life.
Taking a deep breath, Jun Xiaomo let go of his palm and gave Rong Ruihan a tear-stained smile:
"Thank you, Rong Ruihan."
Thank you not only for your reminder in this life, but also for your dedication and maintenance in previous lives.
Even if she couldn't respond to Rong Ruihan's feelings in this life, she would still give him the most sincere friendship.
A friendship that will never give up even if we go through fire and water.
"Let's get acquainted again, Brother Rong." Jun Xiaomo stretched out his hand and changed his name to Rong Ruihan, "My name is Jun Xiaomo, the Jun of Junzi, the Xiao of Chenxiao, the Mo of Qianmo, and I am the Xuyang Sect. The daughter of the master of Lintian Peak, nice to meet you, Rong Ruihan... Brother Rong."
Before, her identity in front of Rong Ruihan was "Yao Mo", and after her true appearance was revealed, she never really introduced herself.
Rong Ruihan was stunned, and a gentle smile appeared on the corners of his cold lips.
"Nice to meet you, Jun Xiaomo."
He also stretched out his hand and grasped the white palm in front of him.
