Gu Peijiu thought it was beautiful, but she also felt a little unspeakably sour.
She doesn't like her with other people.
But she couldn't do anything, she was just attached to this puppet, and everything in front of her was just what she saw through Doudou's eyes.
Chu Shi suddenly felt an itch on his head, and when he looked up, Xia Wushuang smiled and hid his hands behind, "Yeah."
Chu Shi: "...what are you doing?"
Xia Wushuang: "Guess what?"
Chu Shi retracted his gaze, looked at the porridge in his hand, and said unhappily, "I can't guess, I don't guess."
Xia Wushuang smiled and stretched out his hand, "Look."
The palm is a peach blossom.
White and tender palm, pink and white petals.
Chu Shi suddenly felt astringent in his heart.
She put down the porridge, "Wushuang, I..."
Xia Wushuang interrupted her, "Why don't you drink?"
Chu Shi seemed to summon up great courage and answered the question: "Wushuang, I'm going back."
"A letter from the frontier... Barbarians invaded." Chu Shi said, "As a princess of a country, I can't be like this... My son and daughter are in love."
The breeze blew, cooling the porridge and blowing down a peach blossom in Xia Wu's hands.
Gu Peijiu watched all this.
"Later, the princess returned to the capital." Doudou said in a shallow voice, "Uncle Guo, in the name of the Qing monarch, led the army to overthrow the old dynasty, and the princess who is only a king can't be called a king. King Huai of Chu was the regent and offered a reward of 10,000 gold to summon someone who could change the life of the princess to the world."
The scene changed, and it was a quiet night, with the sound of frogs, the fireflies lit up, the girl in Tsing Yi was playing the flute, and Gu Peijiu stood behind her, respectful and quiet.
The flute is long and long.
Gu Peijiu's heart trembled slightly.
This is the song Homecoming that I heard every time in my childhood dreams.
Before Gu Peijiu came back to his senses, he heard the man in front of him speak.
"Ajiu, I want to go to Yundu." After the song, she seemed to have made a decision, took the flute, and said, "If the princess doesn't have the king's order, she will die if she leads an army with a small body."
"I'll change my life for her."
Gu Peijiu couldn't speak, she was still a quiet and obedient leader at this time.
The bright moon was gentle, and Xia Wushuang turned around, holding the bone flute, a pair of cat eyes filled with lonely moonlight.
Gu Peijiu's body shuddered suddenly.
... As in all dreams, it was the exact same face as Xia Wuyin...
Gu Peijiu couldn't see anyone using this face to make a lonely expression.
My heart is soft and painful.
"Ajiu." The girl closed her eyes and squeezed the flute slightly, showing a fragile expression, "I... feel so lonely."
Gu Peijiu didn't know the reason, but felt heartache to death.
Legend has it that Yundu was the capital of the gods hundreds of years ago, but the gods fell, there are no gods in the world, Yundu is still prosperous, but there is no grand scene of the gods standing.
But the Divine Scroll, which gives life to all living beings, is still in the Tower of Destiny, the highest in Yundu.
Xia Wushuang hid the truth from Chu Yao, went to Yundu alone with a puppet, killed the Heavenly Destiny Pavilion, and changed the king's life for Chu Yao.
"The destiny is set, you will be cursed by the heavens like this!"
The old man guarding the Destiny Pavilion was pushed to the ground by Gu Peijiu, watching the girl write and draw on the Destiny Scroll with a brush, his heart ached, "You will regret it! You will definitely regret—"
"Hey, regret?" Xia Wushuang's brows were full of unrestrained spirit, "Do you know who will regret it? People who do nothing when the opportunity is in front of them will regret it when they get old, right?"
After he finished speaking, he squatted in front of the old man again, raised his eyebrows meaningfully, and joked, "Just like... an old man like you who is about to go to earth? How many things do you regret in this life?"
Gu Peijiu stared at this man named Xia Wushuang.
She had never seen such high spirits in Xia Wuyin.
Although Xia Wuyin's speech is also terrible, but he always subconsciously restrains his edge, like an ancient tool, suppressing himself, and carefully grasping the proportions.
It's like a thousand sails have passed, and the eyes are full of vicissitudes.
Xia Wushuang was different.
Gu Peijiu looked at this man, as if he was looking at Xia Wuyin, a real high-spirited youth.
"Shuzi!! Shuzi!!" The old man exploded in anger and cursed, "You will definitely be cursed!! Let me tell you, the last person who was cursed by the Heavenly Dao was right behind Tianming Mountain, you might as well see what happened to her!! "
Xia Wushuang changed the destiny scroll, closed it with satisfaction, and smiled at the old man whose heart was aching: "Oh? What will happen?"
"The god of fortune and misfortune who was in all directions in the past, like today's curse is added to his body, shackled for hundreds of years and cannot be supernatural!!"
"It's really miserable." Xia Wushuang smiled, "Since that god was so miserable that he was cursed by heaven, he was also cursed by heaven... As the saying goes, he is a fallen person from the end of the world, may I lend a helping hand?"
The old man was about to vomit blood, "No!!"
Xia Wushuang drew two turtles on the old man's face, "No, no, there are so many things that can't be done in this world."
Gu Peijiu: "..."
"But I'm really sorry, I'm a person who is born with a rebellious body. I'm going to do what others don't let me do." Xia Wushuang pouted, threw the Destiny Roll aside, and squatted down to look at him, "That's what you said. A god of fortune and misfortune, where is it?"
Old man: "..."
"Oh, I see, you said, in Tianming Mountain."
The old man with two turtles painted on his face cried out, "I didn't say it! I'm not here!"
Xia Wushuang turned a deaf ear: "The last god in the world, I really want to see what it looks like."
Old man: "You will regret it!"
Gu Peijiu looked at Xia Wushuang.
do not know why.
Obviously so reckless.
She could see the loneliness in her eyes.
Because that person is gone.
So the soul has nothing to rely on and nowhere to go.
The last god of the dead.
Gu Peijiu thought.
Whether it is a god of misfortune or a god of good fortune, it doesn't really matter to this person.
Just know that the other party is just as lonely as she is.
"You are here to guard this old man." Xia Wushuang said casually, "I will go to Tianming Mountain to see."
Gu Peijiu responded quietly.
She wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything.
After Xia Wushuang returned from Tianming Mountain, he brought back a little girl in red.
The little girl was dirty, barefoot, unable to speak, with soft black hair and long and narrow eyes. When she looked at Xia Wushuang, her eyes were shallow and soft, as if she was looking at the whole world.
However, after seeing Gu Peijiu, his eyes were full of hostility.
Gu Peijiu's pupils shrank slightly.
this person.
Even turned to ashes.
She knows it all.
- Su Tang! !
Or... When I was a child, Su Chuan
The old man yelled, "You'll regret it! Change your destiny and let go of the calamity! You'll definitely regret—"
Xia Wushuang casually said, "Shut up that old man."
Gu Peijiu wrapped the old man's mouth tightly with a cloth.
Xia Wushuang saw that the little girl in red was staring at Gu Peijiu, so she introduced it, then squatted down and said softly, "I'll take you to the world to see, okay?"
The little girl in red tugged at the corner of her clothes tightly, and Xia Wushuang wiped her dirty cheeks clean. Hearing this, she was a little arrogant and nodded shyly.
Doudou's voice was soft, and he slowly narrated an unknown past event, "Xia Wushuang brought the god of misfortune to Yundu, I woke up, at the same time, the world is full of wars and disasters, I heard that Xia Wushuang changed his destiny. Chu Yao is back... That part, you should have seen it at Baimeng Point."
Gu Peijiu remembered it very clearly.
No... Rather than saying it clearly, she only remembered what Xia Wushuang said to Chu Shi at that time.
- You can see the princess and rule the world.
Word by word, word by word.
Chu Shi didn't stay in the bamboo forest for a long time, and went back soon, leaving Xia Wushuang, the little girl in red, and Gu Peijiu.
Xia Wushuang was very idle, and every day he led the little girl to fight cocks, fish, birds, and bamboo shoots, as if she didn't care about the world.
Gu Peijiu quietly followed behind them.
this evening.
It is estimated that the little girl fell asleep, and Xia Wushuang came out alone.
Didn't take a few steps.
She stopped and tilted her head, "What are you doing with me, go back."
Gu Peijiu came out, quietly like a puppet who didn't understand anything, neither moving nor walking.
"...You're broken?" Xia Wushuang came over, "I'll let you go back."
Gu Peijiu pretended to be stupid.
Xia Wushuang murmured, turned his head and walked away, "... Forget it."
Gu Peijiu followed suit.
Xia Wushuang suddenly turned around.
Gu Peijiu pretended to be stupid.
Xia Wushuang: "…"
Xia Wushuang: "Stop pretending, I saw you move."
Gu Peijiu thought for a while, then took two steps back, back to the place where she acted stupid for the first time before, and then looked at her with dark eyes.
Xia Wushuang couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing, "I said, why are you so cute."
She laughed.
For a moment, Gu Peijiu didn't know whether it was the past or the future, but she knew.
If at that time, if at this moment.
She will do the same.
Not only because, Doudou is her.
Or because she is Gu Peijiu.
After laughing, Xia Wushuang said, "The moonlight is so beautiful tonight."
A little lonely in his eyes.
Gu Peijiu didn't know how to comfort her.
"Well, let me teach you to play the flute." Xia Wushuang thought for a while, then took out the flute and handed it to her, "Anyway, you are my leader, and I have so many useless puppets."
Gu Peijiu stared at the bone flute in Xia Wu's hands and shook his head.
Xia Wushuang had a headache, and then induced her, "Oh, I will teach you how to play the flute. In the future, you will listen to me, and then hold the flute and let them listen to you."
Gu Peijiu still shook his head.
Gu Peijiu disagreed, and Xia Wushuang didn't force it either.
What is she expecting.
Even a puppet with feelings is just a puppet after all.
Xia Wushuang thought, in fact, it really doesn't matter what the messy puppets under his hand are taking care of.
... She is just looking for someone who can play the flute for her.
Gu Peijiu's heart twitched slightly.
She wanted to do something, but she couldn't do anything.
Why was it rejected then
She is a puppet who should obey her master... That's right.
Just thinking about it, his body suddenly moved.
A pale hand grabbed Xia Wushuang's arm.
Xia Wushuang froze slightly and looked back at her.
The moonlight was gentle, shining softly in the girl's dark eyes.
"I do not know."
Gu Peijiu heard her own voice, she stared at her, her tone was soft, not stiff, "I'm afraid I can't play well."
make you laugh.
She saw that the loneliness condensed on Xia Wushuang's brows slowly dissipated, replaced by a soft smile.
"You're still shy at me."
Gu Peijiu did not speak.
"It doesn't matter." Xia Wushuang pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I will teach you, a famous teacher produces a master apprentice!"
That night, the first song Xia Wushuang taught his leader was to return home.
