After everyone left in a mess, the yard was in a mess.
The black-clothed archer with a bow came down and began to clean up the yard.
Xia Ge couldn't let go of his bow, and then came back to his senses and wondered, "Who are these people?"
Xia Ge had seen people in black deliver letters to Gu Peiju before, but no matter what, it was only one person who delivered the letter. She didn't take it seriously, but now there are suddenly so many masked and shot arrows. The archer, the man in black, is very intriguing.
Gu Peijiu accepted Tianzhuling and paused, "It's from the black market."
The black market, as the saying goes, is where you can buy basically anything as long as you have the money.
Xia Ge suddenly realized, "This is what Senior Sister hired from the black market."
Gu Peijiu: "..."
Actually, it's not that Xia Ge is slow, Gu Peijiu, as the eldest disciple of the famous Lingxi Danfeng, in Xia Ge's eyes, how radiant, beautiful and sacred... Even if it's a little bit on the bed... But, cough.
In short, in Xia Ge's eyes, it's conceivable that Big Sister goes to the black market to buy something, but it would be a bit exaggerated to say that she is the head of the black market.
Gu Peijiu said, "No."
Xia Ge was hooking the bowstring, and when he heard that he was denied, he couldn't help but startled slightly, "Huh?"
Gu Peijiu thought for a while and said, "Do you know the Gu family?"
Xia Ge held the bow and shook his head dazedly, "A hired house? A house of mercenaries? The black market still divides this?... I have never heard of it."
Gu Peijiu laughed, "It's not that hired."
The bows in Xia Singer are very long, about one meter five, with black bows and hard strings. They are really good bows.
Gu Peijiu stepped forward, put her hand on Xia Ge's bow holding hand, took her hand, and wrote "Gu" on the ground with the tail of the bow, "This."
Hand put together, the fragrance is shallow, warm and fragrant nephrite.
Xia Ge was a little confused, "Gu Family?... I haven't heard of it..."
ah want to kiss...
Gu Peijiu thought for a while, then put down his hand and smiled, "That's all."
Don't know, it's not necessary.
Instead, Xia Ge became curious, and pulled Gu Peijiu Rou's back hand, "Wait, Gu? Where is the Gu family?—Senior sister's family?"
After Xia Ge finished speaking, she realized that she had been with Senior Sister for so many years, but she didn't even know where Senior Sister's home was.
The sister never mentioned it.
She secretly laughed at herself being stupid, and Senior Sister didn't just jump out of the cracks of the stone, but she has a home after all.
After all, she had been alone for so long, and over time, her concept of home became weaker.
Gu Peijiu nodded slightly, "En."
Xia Ge got a little nervous for no reason, and listened to the system teasing: "Yo, does the ugly daughter-in-law want to see her in-laws?"
Bah, she's not ugly!
It's just that Senior Sister has such a temperament. If you want to come to this Gu family, she should be a famous family. No matter how bad it is, she should be a scholar. I heard that there are many rules in such a family. Although she is not ugly, but...
Xia Ge said nervously, "Ah... Then, that senior sister's family..."
Gu Peijiu said lightly, "It's all gone."
oh no more...
Xia Ge immediately understood what this meant, and the heart that had just relaxed for a second mentioned it in his throat again—isn't there anymore? !
How sad.
Xia Ge was really caught off guard by the news that this roller coaster was usually ups and downs. She dropped her bow, scratched her head, and regretted mentioning this, "Is that so, Senior Sister..."
No wonder the senior sister never mentioned family matters, it turns out that she is the same.
She thought about it, stepped forward and hugged Gu Peijiu, put her head on her shoulder, and whispered, "...Senior sister, don't be sad, and me."
The girl's breath was warm and gentle.
Gu Peijiu touched her head and smiled slightly, "It's okay, it's been a long time."
Xia Ge said dully, "What did Senior Sister want to say to me just now?"
Gu Peijiu's words were concise and concise: "The Gu family is based on the black market."
Xia Ge was taken aback: "Huh?"
Very surprised.
Very unexpected.
"Is the black market owned by Senior Sister?"
Gu Peijiu nodded slightly. Although she felt that her identity was nothing, she still felt a little uneasy when she thought of her consistent behavior in Lingxi Peak and her image in Xia Ge's heart.
After a pause, he added: "It's the family's business, I've never been involved in it..."
Before I could finish speaking, I saw Xia Ge say seriously, "Then, can I go to the black market to buy things in the future without giving me money?"
Gu Peijiu: "..."
Seeing that Gu Peijiu seemed to be choking, Xia Ge smiled, "I lied to you, as the second master, how can you buy things without giving money."
system:"… "
Well, at this moment, Kung Fu has shamelessly promoted himself from an overlord who "don't give money for nothing" to a second-in-command.
I don't know if half of my property was removed by someone with a foreign surname in the blink of an eye.
Gu Peijiu turned her elbows hard: "Yes."
Seeing Xia Ge staring at him all the time, Gu Peijiu said, "In the future... just take whatever you like."
System: "..." OK.
Xia Ge stared at Gu Peijiu and said slyly, "No, no, no, I have already got my favorite thing anyway."
Gu Peijiu raised his eyes, and suddenly his eyes darkened. It turned out to be a fox mask. Xia Ge wrapped his arms around Gu Peijiu's neck and fastened the mask from behind, "What senior sister gave me is my favorite."
Fragrant smell, very comfortable.
Xia Ge whispered, "I don't break the rules so much... Anyway, no matter who Senior Sister is or what her status is... Even if you are a big villain, I will still like it."
"Like my sister likes me."
Gu Peijiu didn't speak, she lifted the mask up, lowered her head and kissed Xia Ge's lips.
His lips were intertwined, tenderly, Xia Ge put his arms around Gu Peiju's neck. While breathing, he suddenly remembered something important, "Ah? By the way, I used to buy things in the black market, does Senior Sister know?"
Gu Peijiu stared at Xia Ge's red lips, and changed the subject casually: "A few persimmon trees are crooked."
Xia Ge: "...you look me in the eyes and say hello!"
Xia Ge reached out and pinched Gu Peijiu's pretty face, "Speak! Did you know it long ago! Ah, I thought the black market was from a demon sect!"
Gu Peijiu looked around and said other things: "... When my father was alive, he had occasional business dealings with the Demon Sect."
Xia Ge said "hey", "It's alright, you must have known it long ago - I said why I always get discounts when I buy things!"
Gu Peijiu looked at the persimmon tree in the yard, and the corners of her lips curled slightly.
Xia Ge followed Gu Peijiu's gaze and saw the persimmon tree that was crooked. Several men in black clothes were pulling the tree back.
As soon as Xia Ge saw the person, he suddenly shuddered, "Why are there still people?"
Gu Peijiu said, "It's okay, they can't see it."
Xia Ge: "..." I've never seen such a confident person who opens his eyes and talks nonsense.
The two laughed and quarreled for a while, and finally got tired. Xia Ge pushed Gu Peijiu on the rocking chair. She lay on top of her and the rocking chair swayed. She whispered, "Senior sister, I always feel that you are a little different. already."
The man in black who cleaned up the yard had long since retreated, and the persimmon trees that were accidentally injured and crooked were pulled back to their original positions by thick ropes. Once the yard was cleaned up, it looked neat and clean.
Tianzhuling and Xiaoxiangsi saw that someone was gone, they slowly climbed out of the house and played hide-and-seek in the yard. Xiaoxiangsi hid herself on the persimmon tree, Tianzhuling was in the middle of the yard, like a red snake. swaying around, as if nothing was found.
Gu Peijiu gave an "oh", and said without changing his face, "What's different?"
Xia Ge lay on top of her, nose to nose, eyes to eyes.
"...It seems to be more powerful than before." Xia Ge thought for a while, and then added: "Of course, it was also very powerful before."
Gu Peijiu smiled slightly, "Perhaps she had an epiphany after a nap."
Xia Ge pouted, "I don't have an epiphany when I sleep every day. If you have a secret, please share it, and you are still hiding it with me."
Gu Peijiu sighed like an invincible: "Whether it's ... you come over here."
Xia Ge excitedly put his ear close.
Gu Peijiu bit her earlobe, her voice soft.
"The secret... It cannot be leaked."
Xia Ge: "… "
Xia Ge puffed up her face and pinched Gu Peijiu, "Senior sister will make this kind of joke too, what should be leaked and shouldn't be leaked will be leaked, what else can't be leaked..."
Speaking of the back, I couldn't help but become ambiguous, "Really?"
Gu Peijiu slowly put his hand into Xia Ge's clothes, and was pinned down by Xia Ge, "Don't reveal the secret in broad daylight!"
Gu Peijiu kissed her, "What about now?"
Xia Ge blushed, "That doesn't work either, it's immoral... There are children."
child
Gu Peijiu followed Xia Ge's gaze, and saw the little Acacia poking his head on the persimmon tree at a glance: "..."
Gu Peijiu retracted his gaze and continued to grope inside, "It's okay."
The girl's skin is soft and smooth, and it feels like a piece of warm jade, which is really addicting.
Little Acacia stayed on the persimmon tree for a long time and didn't see any movement from Tianzhuling. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer, and quietly stuck out a "head" from the dense green leaves to listen to the six-way and see the eight directions.
A little red in the ten thousand green bushes, no one catches you.
The next moment, a red light flashed by, and the fine red silk wrapped the small red ribbon into a red zongzi. At the same time, it rolled down from the tree, and Tianzhuling was wrapped outside. Mud grumbled all over the ground.
"No, there are still some differences." Xia Ge blushed and held down Gu Peijiu's groping hand again, thinking for a while, looking into Gu Peijiu's eyes, and thinking a little confused, "Senior sister now... always makes me think. Wake up to a dream."
Gu Peijiu's heart moved slightly, but his face remained calm, "Oh?"
"I don't know if it was a dream." Xia Ge said, "When I was still wandering around, I once passed by a rain temple."
"...I thought I was going to starve to death." She shrunk her head to Gu Peijiu's chest, listening to her steady heartbeat, every sound seemed to give her unparalleled courage to face the past.
"But after waking up from hunger... It was like a dream, and suddenly there was a lot to eat."
"… "
The heartbeat is still steady.
"Actually, at that time, I felt that my life was very boring. It was just because of my commitment to someone, so I worked hard to live."
"But that day, I really felt like I couldn't hold on anymore."
"There is no hope and no light."
Gu Peijiu listened quietly, brushing the girl's long black hair with her hand, her heart was silent.
"That's why I always felt that at the Rain Temple, I had the luckiest thing in my life." Xia Ge said in a low voice, "Whoever it is... It is always to let me know that in this world, as long as I persevere a little bit, There will always be hope.”
After she finished speaking, she looked into Gu Peijiu's eyes.
Sister's eyes are very warm.
She was as gentle as the woman in the white dream cave, who was wearing a black cloak and kissing her forehead.
She stared into Gu Peijiu's eyes, "So, if possible, I really want to say thank you to the Rain God that night in person."
"…Thank you for giving me the courage to keep going."
When Gu Peijiu heard the words, her heart was complicated, she felt like she had a thousand words, but she didn't know where to start.
The past is the past, and this body has spent a hundred years.
Five hundred years ago, Xia Wushuang built the Evil Spirit Mountain, and after 50 years of kneeling and repenting, the spirit and soul were all destroyed.
Maybe it's not Divine Fear.
But at that time, Gu Peijiu couldn't feel Xia Wushuang's soul at all, and he didn't do what he thought except that his soul was completely destroyed.
Fifty years is so long, in fact, by that time, everyone has already thought about it.
It's just that no one went to find anyone.
One is because he feels unworthy, and the other is speechless because of deep love.
Until she was in front of Xia Wushuang's tomb, she finally remembered everything when she was "Doudou".
Same soul, different people.
But whatever.
She lives for this person, and maybe she will die for this person eventually.
But a puppet who claimed to be Wu Dikui found her and left her with a piece of Xia Wushuang's soul, and let her wait until the time when the real Son of Destiny was born to find the most suitable person to reincarnate him.
"What is the most suitable person?"
"...Xia Wushuang changed his life for the King of Chu against Heaven, and released the God of Heaven who was supposed to be rescued by the Son of Destiny in five hundred years. It hurt the destiny of the Son of Destiny, so he was punished by God."
"...If you want to save her, you have to find the opposite of the Son of Destiny in five hundred years."
"That's the 'best fit.'"
Qin Shuang is the opposite of the fate of the Son of Destiny, Ye Ze, destined to be a stepping stone on the way forward.
Gu Peijiu still remembered that at that time, the soul fragment in her hand was very small and fragile.
It seems that if it is not well protected, it will be broken without a trace inadvertently.
And the familiarity of the breath makes people almost can't help but cry.
Gu Peijiu put away the fragments and asked softly, "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am... It's a pity, I can only do this." Using the puppet's body, Wu Dikui said in a stiff voice, "I will force her soul back before it is about to disperse. where he deserves his due, and therefore his punishment..."
"You must wait until that day... Until then, protect it well..."
Afterwards, the puppet turned into a pool of fragments in front of Xia Wushuang's tomb.
The lost deer came over, bowed his head and arched the fragments, then looked up at her again.
Xia Wushuang set his tomb on the back mountain of Lingxi Peak, two lost, one deer was placed here, and the other was left in Evil Spirit Mountain.
And the "it" in Wu Dikui's mouth is the soul fragment it left to Gu Peijiu, and the reason why it should be well protected is because Xia Wushuang's soul is the object of fate and the way of heaven, and whoever holds it will suffer from it. God damn it.
And Gu Peijiu kept protecting this fragment from the hand of disaster under the intrusion of all kinds of scourges, and the hardships were insignificant.
She was like this, waiting for this person for five hundred years.
Actually it's nothing.
It's just that the scourge is easy to pass, and the thoughts are hard.
But fortunately…
Finally not disappointed.
Five hundred years later, Qin Shuang appeared, and she was reborn from a split soul—a split-soul rebirth was not easy. Half of Gu Peijiu's soul was reincarnated as the little girl of the Gu family, and half of her soul was stable and unstable, her consciousness was sometimes blurred, and sometimes it was very clear. Sometimes I put myself in a puppet, sometimes I live in the body of a dying person for a while, and occasionally I will be born out of dislocation.
It's hard work to adapt.
But no matter what, she knew what she was going to do.
And in my heart... a secret expectation that was born because of that person.
She also wanted to… be human.
It's not a high-level god, or a puppet who can only look at her back all the time. She wants to be... someone who can hold that person's hand and keep walking.
It was only before she could count Qin Shuang's existence that half of Chaos's soul was protecting the shard. Later, the misfortune suddenly stopped appearing, and she had a slight chance to breathe, but she didn't think that the misfortune had already found Qin in advance. Shuang, I didn't understand why at the time, but just now the Chang family and Misfortune appeared at the same time... Thinking about it carefully, at that time, Misfortune had already used the power of the Chang family to parasitize himself on the young Qin Shuang.
Later, when she counted the fate of Qin Shuang, Qin Shuang had already destroyed the Ye family with her mother, and was chased and killed by decent people on the street, but she was still under the control of misfortune. devoured.
She dragged half of her soul and fighting against fate, but Qin Shuang was young, but she was the daughter of an orthodox priest. She was born with unparalleled spiritual power. A lose-lose.
Gu Peijiu has the body of a heaven-level puppet, and also has the Sword of Inquiring Love in his hand, which is extremely difficult to deal with for disasters, but he used his last remaining strength to use the ultimate move, opened the Baimeng Cave, and wanted to seal it directly. Gu Peijiu simply gave up her puppet body and the Sword of Love, and used all her soul power to deal a heavy blow to Misfortune. The only consciousness is to put the soul fragment into Qin Shuang's body, and then wake up in a daze. Except for the clear name of "Doudou", other things that he remembers are sparse.
… After that, let’s not mention it.
And the time at the Temple of Rain...
Gu Peijiu sighed softly and said to Xia Ge, "It's all over."
Tianzhuling quietly rolled herself into the water tank to wash it clean, and Xiao Xiangsi also emerged from the tank from Tianzhuling's tangle, shaking the water on her body vigorously, wickedly trying to shake the water to the sky On Zhu Ling, Tian Zhu Ling maliciously pushed her under the water with her tail.
Little Acacia grunted over under the water, like a red water plant, but at the foot of the Wuzhi Mountain in Tianzhuling, it didn't come up, and finally broke the jar and didn't move.
Tianzhuling raised his tail quietly.
"Shh-"
The thin little Acacia jumped up from the bottom like a fish, brought countless water splashes, and splattered all of them on Tian Zhuling. Then she smugly shook herself dry, as if looking for a backer, and rushed to Xia Ge. In his arms, he stretched his tail towards Tianzhuling and showed off his might.
Tian Zhuling crawled out of the water tank, shaking the water on her body, and folded herself under Gu Peijiu's hand in aggrieved.
Who is the boss, the door is clear.
Xia Ge picked up Acacia, "What are you doing?"
