Xia Ge was lost and didn't pay attention to Tourmaline's embarrassment. She only recovered from her question and said politely, "No, thank you."
The two of them didn't speak anymore and looked at Gu Peiju.
"... Miss Xia's breath makes people feel very kind."
Tourmaline broke the silence.
Xia Ge's heart tightened slightly, and she was a little afraid of being recognized. She could face the criticism of the world, but she might not be able to face the disappointment and scorn of the people around her.
"Really." She said naturally, "Maybe it's me who speaks."
"When did Miss Xia meet Miss?" Tourmaline asked again.
Xia Ge understood Tourmaline's question very well. During these years, Senior Sister, besides her, is Tourmaline. In these years of getting along, tourmaline is more like a family that greets her senior sister.
It is natural to ask more questions.
"I met you once."
Xia Ge thought about it for a while, "When buying medicine on the black market."
It's not difficult to make up a story. Xia Ge's brain opened, and he casually made up a beautiful pharmacist who was kidnapped by people in the black market and then rescued by Gu Peijiu, who rushed over in an emergency.
"...That's it, I went to Yunyou, and she returned to Danfeng to continue to be her eldest disciple."
Tourmaline thought for a while, and suddenly asked in doubt, "Hey, isn't it right?"
Xia Ge didn't change his face: "What's wrong?"
Tourmaline: "... Did Miss say anything else?"
Xia Ge acted as if nothing had happened, but his heart raised a little: "No."
Is there something wrong
Tourmaline: "Oh, that's it."
In my heart, I was a little murmured. The black market is the business inherited by the young lady. Although I don't care much, if someone from the black market attacked Miss Xia, the young lady should stop it, right
"I think the person who attacked Miss Xia might not be someone from the black market." Tourmaline thought about it and decided that she still had to clean up her business. "Some demon disciples... They bought some black market properties. Do something wrong."
Xia Ge breathed a sigh of relief and coughed: "Actually, this is not important."
The important thing is that you believe it.
The night is getting darker.
Tourmaline slept next door, Xia Ge said that she was worried about her savior, so she found a small bench and sat in front of her bed.
Tourmaline wasn't very worried either, and her own lady's Tianzhuling didn't resist, which proved that she was indeed a trustworthy person.
Xia Ge looked at Senior Sister's quiet sleeping face, in a daze, recalling that when Senior Sister was angry, her beautiful lips would be pursed into a line, and her eyes were cold, like a cutting blade, and chills splashed everywhere. When I feel happy, my eyes don't turn up, the white jade-like face still seems to be straight, but the rosy lips will quietly lift a small arc, like a smile that is not a smile, it looks terrible.
Even as it is now.
Calm down, long eyelashes, rosy lips, and extraordinarily beautiful.
… It seems that at a glance, you can be heartbroken.
No one around.
Like a thief, Xia Ge quietly reached out and touched Gu Peijiu's forehead, it was very warm.
Too warm to take it back.
Warm and warm, Xia Ge felt a little sad.
After a trip, I lost my lovesickness, lost my senior sister, and nothing.
She was really useless.
Xia Ge thought a little despicably, fortunately, fortunately, Senior Sister hasn't opened her eyes now, if she sees her in such a miserable state, she will feel uncomfortable.
"If... you suddenly opened your eyes and smiled at me." Xia Ge said to himself, "That's good."
It was naturally impossible for Senior Sister to suddenly open her eyes and look at her.
Xia Ge suddenly felt that his heart was full and empty.
She couldn't stay any longer.
She simply went out the door and walked a long way. The unknown white-flowered tree on the side of Danfeng Road has not bloomed, and there are no petals all the way. There is a lonely moon above her head, and not even a star can be seen—
A long time ago, they were walking on this road, and the senior sister used a leaf to play a song for her to return home.
Only now, no one seems to be able to walk behind her.
Xia Ge thought.
She strolled to her small room, where the sycamore branches were lush and leafy, like spring. Xia Ge jumped to his roof as usual, and looked at Senior Sister's hut from a distance.
The night was peaceful, the leaves were swirling, the frogs were roaring, and there were candles flickering in the room, but there was no more shadow of the person who could see here every night.
Xia Ge didn't know what he was feeling sad about and what he was looking forward to.
However, this night was very quiet.
So, no miracles.
However, there are secret, secretly peeping eyes.
Xia Ge had already discovered it.
This gaze followed her from the Evil Spirit Mountain, like a shadow, making people uncomfortable, even creepy.
At first Xia Ge thought it was Ye Ze who doubted her identity as Xia Wuyin, but after some testing, it was clearly not.
Ye Ze was observing her, but it was obviously just a cautious and tentative approach to non-sect disciples, not this somewhat fanatical... or even a little weird gaze.
If not Ye Ze, who would it be
Coming out from Senior Sister, and even deliberately boarded the room that used to be "Xia Wuyin", in addition to being a little sad, it was also for the purpose of drawing this person out and observing his identity.
However, this person was cautious, and Xia Ge was alone in the room all night blowing the cold wind, but he was not even seen.
The east was dimly lit up with fish belly white, the sky was bright, Xia Ge retracted her thoughts, she looked at the sky that was gradually dyed red by the gorgeous morning glow in the distance, and suddenly wanted to have someone beside her.
Lonely, confused, dead, alive, lost, and happy.
A thousand sails are over.
Xia Ge suddenly discovered that today's morning glow was so beautiful that it was hard to breathe.
And the person who can let her freely share this beauty and joy has not opened her eyes yet.
= =
Very heavy, very painful, but also very warm.
The soul was tortured to the point of death by soul poison, as if falling into hell, but the warmth made her feel happy as if floating in the clouds.
Willing to die even.
The soul poison is getting stronger and stronger.
The soul was torn everywhere by the soul poison, and under the severe pain, Gu Peijiu's consciousness gradually began to blur.
Gu Peijiu thought that she might not be able to hold on anymore.
I don't know how that person would have been... without her.
Gu Peijiu felt a little pain at the top of her heart when she thought of what Su Tan said.
She can't do this.
She is going to find her.
But the soul poison was getting worse, as if it was just to kill her.
Gu Peijiu struggled a few times, but it was useless.
getting tired.
... not anymore.
All of a sudden, a soft fragrance of Dan diffused out.
The aching soul suddenly began to tremble, Gu Peiju was slightly startled, she felt...
There are sweet lips intertwined, the soft tongue licked her teeth, slowly prying open, a warm heat spread from the lips and teeth, all the way down from the tip of the tongue, the limbs, the internal organs, and then deeply penetrated. soul.
That warm current warmed her icy and broken soul with gentle soul power, and repaired the gaps destroyed by soul poison little by little, just like rain forests that suddenly meet on dry land.
Suddenly there is no pain.
The apex doesn't hurt anymore.
Only full of warmth.
She felt it.
This person is here.
Here... wait for her to come back.
Safe and gentle.
In a drowsy state, Gu Peijiu's consciousness gradually fell asleep, and exhaustion rushed over like a tide, but she felt very at ease.
… you are here.
I am in your arms.
Very reassuring.
Just fall asleep like this... it's okay.
I don't know how long it took.
The soul seems to be in a deep sleep, but it begins a strange awakening.
Gu Peijiu slowly opened his eyes.
The goal of entry was the soft snow-white clouds in the sky. She stood on the clouds, barefoot and white clothes fluttering.
She lowered her eyes, her wrists were plain white, but she could not see the shadow of Tian Zhuling.
she died
Gu Peijiu thought.
… no, not yet.
Soul poison will make her disappear into ashes and cease to exist.
Therefore, being conscious means that it is not dead yet.
There was a look at her.
Gu Peijiu raised her head, not far away, a young girl in a black cloak stood there, her body was tightly wrapped in a cloak, wearing a black cloak, staring at her with shallow eyes.
Gu Peijiu had seen her.
In the White Dream Cave.
Gu Peijiu was not surprised, even calm, she asked softly, "Who are you?"
"I'm Doudou." The girl stared at her, her voice a little hoarse, she said a word and took a step towards her.
Obviously she felt that she was standing not far away, but she took four steps, but she didn't feel any approach.
Gu Peijiu felt that the name was unfamiliar.
But seems to have heard it somewhere.
She has a good memory. After thinking about it for a while, she remembered that three years ago, Xia Wuyin was injured so badly that she was in a coma. At that time, what she kept saying was "Doudou".
However, since then, she has never mentioned the name again.
Not necessarily the same person.
"Doudou." Gu Peijiu repeated the name.
"It's Doudou, it's also..." Doudou looked at her, "It's also... Gu Peijiu."
The moment she uttered the last three words, the distance between the two people was instantly shortened. At this moment, the girl's face was covered with falling, and they faced each other, it was two identical faces.
- Flowers bloom for two lifetimes, and life is between Buddhas and demons.
This should have been a very surprising thing, but Gu Peijiu didn't feel any surprise, as if it should have happened long ago.
"If I don't come to you again." Doudou's eyes were dark, "You're going to die."
Gu Peijiu looked at her without speaking.
"I didn't want to... see this day." Doudou's voice was shallow, "but I still didn't expect it to come so quickly."
Her slender hand gently caressed Gu Peijiu's face, her eyes blurred, "...she's in love with you, right?"
Gu Peijiu didn't resist her touch, it was the resonance of a soul, but she didn't answer Doudou's question either.
"It's good," Doudou said, "I've been waiting for this day...for a long time."
"Why is it on the same day." Doudou hugged Gu Peijiu, it was a warm hug, her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and murmured, "Why, she fell in love with you and died on the same day? ?"
Gu Peijiu said, "I won't die."
"Yes... you won't die." Doudou said softly, "you are me, if I don't die, you won't die."
"But before you go back, I'm going to tell you a long story," Doudou said, "a . . . story about the past."
Doudou said softly, "You must listen to this story."
Gu Peijiu suddenly recovered, but found that the surrounding scene had changed.
It was a bamboo forest surrounded by wooden fences. Gu Peijiu knew this place. Her fantasy in Baimeng Cave was here.
About the... story of Xia Wushuang and Chu Shi
Doudou's voice sounded softly, slowly telling the story from hundreds of years ago.
"Not long ago, the princess of Heqin was robbed by Xia Wushuang, and the barbarians issued a battle order... But... there were no soldiers available."
"The princess has a king's air, but she has no king's life. She is weak and sickly. You must not be bloody and evil."
"… "
Princess Chu Shi, who was brought back, was unhappy.
A peach tree was planted in front of the bamboo house, and the peach blossoms on the tree had already begun to wither.
Xia Wushuang stood in front of the bamboo house, holding the porridge, cautiously, "Ashi, it's time to eat."
Gu Peijiu suddenly realized that Xia Wushuang's face was exactly the same as Xia Wuyin's...
Gu Peijiu: "Why is she... the same?"
"In order to be recognized by you." Doudou's voice was quiet, "I am afraid day and night."
- I'm afraid that you will miss her if you don't know anything.
Therefore, she made Xia Wushuang in Gu Peijiu's dream look like Xia Wuyin.
Chu Shi pushed open the door and came out.
Gu Peijiu stood behind Xia Wushuang and saw the thin Chu Shi.
Xia Wushuang complained: "Hey, you've lost a lot of weight. Your uncle will definitely blame me when he sees it, saying that I didn't take good care of you or something..."
She paused, "Anyway, you should eat more."
"...I can't eat it." Chu Shi shook his head and hesitated, "Wushuang..."
Xia Wushuang didn't seem to notice her hesitating words, and she persisted, "You eat, I won't leave if you don't eat."
Chu Shi sighed and took the porridge.
The two sat on the bluestone steps under the eaves, Xia Wushuang crossed his legs, took a bamboo and drew circles on the ground, Chu Shi drank the porridge quietly, the peach petals floated down, thin and gentle.
