Sixty-seventh bowl of soup (nine)
"Still sophistry!" Lan Shenxue walked around the room angrily like a raging lion, the knife in his hand had already hurt himself, but he didn't notice it, as if he didn't feel the pain at all. generally. "You were for him from the very beginning! When he came, your whole person changed! First you didn't allow me to kill him, then you asked me to save him, and in the middle you cooked medicine for him, and now you want to sacrifice yourself to help him You are for him! You are lying to me! You bad woman!"
He is really as naive as a child who hasn't grown up, his eyes are red with anger, he wants to kill her, but he is reluctant to kill her, his eyes are full of sadness and grievance.
Seeing the deer lying down and looking towards the roof, she felt that something had changed in herself, but she couldn't tell what changed. She just... wants to go back. That was her only obsession for thousands of years, a desire that never dissipated from the bottom of her heart even in the Wangchuan River. Even if nothing can be saved when I go back, I hope to have a chance.
She can adapt to the situation and commit herself to someone, Lan Shenxue can, it doesn't matter if she is another man, she has never forgotten her purpose - to go back.
She just wanted to go back, meet that person, take what she always wanted, that's all.
If she could, she naturally didn't want to hurt anyone, but Lan Shenxue was different from anyone she had ever met before. He was crazy and paranoid, and what he was sure of would never change. Secular ethics, benevolence, righteousness and morality are nothing to him, but she is not the one who can accompany him for the rest of his life.
"I'm not for Dongfanghong." She didn't want to lie to him. "I do it for myself."
"What do you mean?" Lan Shenxue didn't understand.
He will never understand. He will never know what the woman in front of him has been through, nor the scars hidden under her seemingly beautiful appearance. What Lan Shenxue saw was beautiful, and it was the original appearance, but what was under the surface
It's tears, it's blood, it's despair.
That is the memory that only she bears. The distance between them is more than thousands of years? There is also a distance that Jianlu will never be able to cover in her heart. If she does not go back, she will not be able to escape for a day.
But seeing Lu didn't give him an answer, she just sat up slowly from the table, took Lan Shenxue's hand, took the knife from his hand, and whispered to him: "I'm sorry, Shenxue."
But she still wouldn't change her mind.
Lan Shenxue rarely felt this kind of feeling. He couldn't describe it in words. He only knew that his heart, which had never hurt before, began to have small pains that spread along the cracked traces little by little. Nibbling at his internal organs, some devouring his soul. But he had never been so awake for a moment. He looked at the woman in front of him very calmly, and realized for the first time in his life what a heartbeat is.
Ah, he thought.
It turns out that this feeling for her is called heartbeat.
He was a little dazed, "But if you do this, this body will rot."
After saying this, Lan Shenxue suddenly felt extremely boring. What was he busy with every day for? The woman he liked would not be willing to stay by his side because of this. "It's boring."
He said. "It's meaningless to live."
As long as he thinks of not having this woman by his side, he feels that his life has become blank. He used to hate the sound and breath, but if he saw the deer disappear, he just thought about it and felt extremely lost and wanted to catch it.
But he couldn't catch it.
See Lu suddenly said: "Then refine another Ten Thousand Corpse Pill."
"What?"
"Refine another Ten Thousand Corpse Pill." She looked at him seriously, and smiled at him. There was something strange in that smile that Lan Shenxue couldn't understand, but she couldn't help but feel bad about it. "I believe you must have a way to keep this body. I will return to you when you refine another Ten Thousand Corpse Pill."
Lan Shenxue asked her: "Even if I disagree—"
"Help me, Miyuki." She suddenly hugged his neck, this was the first time she saw Lu and asked him to do something for her. "Dig out my heart and give it to Dongfanghong to make it look like a living person. Dongfanghong has a way to use it, and then...wait for me."
She is begging him.
Lan Shenxue's heart softened suddenly, he thought, so be it. Didn't he have been alone for twenty years, isn't it just waiting for another ten years... maybe a little more, and after refining a Ten Thousand Corpse Pill, she will come back.
Men should be nice to their women. Women give what they want.
She only asked him, and he couldn't care about anything else.
"Okay then," he heard himself say. "But you have to keep your word, or I won't care about you anymore."
Jianlu smiled lightly: "Okay."
Lan Shenxue closed her eyes.
Dongfanghong and the others waited for a long time, worrying about what would happen between Miracle Doctor Lan and Miss Jianlu. Just when they couldn't sit still, Lan Shenxue appeared.
They hurriedly got up to meet them, but looked at the wooden box in Lan Shenxue's hand in astonishment.
Dongfanghong and the others are chivalrous and courageous, and they will definitely not agree to such a thing, but Lan Shenxue and Jianlu are different from them, they are not good people, and they will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Therefore, Lan Shenxue had to take out her heart himself, and when he refined the Ten Thousand Corpse Pill, he would find a new clean heart for her.
She said she would come back, and he believed it.
Otherwise he would leave her alone.
Handing the wooden box to Dongfang Hong, Lan Shenxue turned into that gloomy and sickly pale young man again. His eyes were slightly blood red: "Get lost."
Then he ignored them again.
He went back to the alchemy room, and sat in the room where Jian Lu lived for a while. Seeing that the deer's body was kept by him in the underground ice cellar of the villa, where there were exotic flowers and plants, and it was clean and bloodless, she should like it very much. He also stuffed a beauty pearl in her mouth to keep her face from being corrupted.
It's just that she begged him, so they need to be separated for a few years temporarily, and they will naturally have a chance to meet again in the future.
Lan Shenxue began to refine alchemy crazily, but Wanshi Pill is not so easy to refine. If he didn't know how deer hate random killings, he really wanted to kill 10,000 people and throw them into alchemy. He spends all his time on alchemy, day and night without stopping. Such days are no different from before I met her, but at that time it was because of my obsession with alchemy, but now it is to revive Jianlu.
After a month of this, Dongfanghong and others came back. They knelt outside the villa for a long time, saying that they wanted to be his servants. Lan Shenxue thought it was ridiculous. If he wanted a servant, there would be living corpses everywhere, and he would be quiet and silent, wouldn't it be better than these noisy guys
but…
They said they could collect the body for him.
Lan Shenxue fell into a difficult choice. Although he still disliked Dongfang Hong no matter what, it was true that living corpses were not as flexible as living people in finding corpses. So he agreed to the request of Dongfang Hong and the others, and let them live in the courtyard farthest from him in the villa. There are countless gold, silver, jewels and precious medicinal materials, which are enough to buy a lot of corpses to refine Wanshi Pill.
Dongfanghong and Tang Huaiyan got married. He fulfilled his master's behest, and he didn't have any desire for profit, he just wanted to repay his kindness. Seeing that Miss Lu died for them, if there is a chance to revive her, they are willing to sacrifice their lives for it. In fact, he was also afraid that the son would be so sad because of the girl's death that he would start a killing spree. If a person like Lan Shenxue became a murderer, he would be much more difficult to deal with than that monster.
But the corpses obtained without killing people are too few and too slow. It took them 20 years to get them together. Lan Shenxue carefully selected a heart for the deer. This heart came from a man who had just died suddenly. The person is fresh and energetic. The other party has never done any bad things during his lifetime. He will definitely like it when he sees a deer.
Lan Shenxue thought so. He opened the deer's withered chest again like many years ago, revealing the internal organs that had already been stiff as stone. He embalmed the heart, and when he put it in again, it was like She is still alive.
But the Ten Thousand Corpse Pill wasn't refined well, so she still had to lie down in the ice cellar. He has visited her countless times over the years, and he can't help but think of the phrase "Help me, Miyuki" she said when she left a long time ago.
That was the only sustenance she left for him in this world. In fact, after so long, Lan Shenxue couldn't figure out whether she really liked her or just wanted to fulfill her wish.
After another ten years, Wanshi Pill was successfully refined, and everyone was extremely excited, and a long-lost smile appeared on Lan Shenxue's face.
He used the method of refining living corpses to repair and reassemble Jianlu. When she woke up, she would find that she was not old at all. What she was back then is what she is now. Of course, Lan Shenxue himself is not very old, he always feels that seeing a deer owes him thirty years of time, and he has to make up for it no matter what.
He does not want to grow old, nor does he dare to grow old. He will wait until this woman comes back, and then threaten her, if you are not obedient, I will leave you alone, and let your internal organs rot and mold, and you will die.
Dongfanghong and the others were old, with wrinkled faces. Lan Shenxue decided to turn them into living corpses after they died, so that they could continue to stay as his servants.
Under the eyes of everyone, he pushed the Wanshi Pill into the mouth of the corpse as he did thirty years ago, and soaked her in the medicinal soup. Although…
Although she opened her eyes but didn't speak, it doesn't matter, consciousness can't be recovered so quickly.
But Lan Shenxue waited for a long time, so long that he realized that thirty years ago, the woman he named Jianlu had lied to him.
She will not come back.
Lan Shenxue stared blankly at the living corpse whose eyes were open and the skin was as soft as a living person, but the eyes were completely silent without any fluctuations. She lowered her head, lowered her eyes, and said.
"I don't care about you."
It was as if something collapsed in an instant.
