light and dark 5
After the battle between the nine-tailed celestial fox Yunsheng and the black unicorn king Yexiu, Yexiu disappeared.
No one knew where Ye Xiu went, whether he was dead or alive.
When the human race and the orc race signed a treaty of peaceful coexistence, the Dutian Blood Realm also became a commemorative place for the human race and the orc race.
In the past, the Heavenly Blood Realm, where not a single blade of grass grew, was gradually planted with vegetation, and a small village was gradually formed in the Blood Realm.
Every year, many young warriors, as well as some people from the mainland, come to visit the Heavenly Blood Realm.
But the most popular tour is the Eight Beastmaster Tombs.
Especially the Tianhu Tomb and the Qilin King Tomb, these two Beast King Tombs, because they were the clothes tombs of the former Sky Fox Clan Head Hu Yan and the Black Qilin Clan Head Ye Xiu, so there has been an endless stream of people to visit.
And every couple who arrived at the Tianhu Tomb and the Qilin King Tomb would go to the Tianhu Tomb to ask for a pair of marriage locks.
Legend has it that the marriage locks sold in front of the Tianhu Tomb are spiritual. As long as a pair of marriage locks are locked together and thrown into the Feiyue River, the lovers will eventually get married and stay together forever.
I don't know if this legend is true or not, but every year there will always be an endless stream of people who come to buy marriage locks and throw them into the Feiyue River.
Most of these people who lost their marriage locks were young men and women.
On this day, another pair of young lovers passed by.
"Buy a pair of marriage locks."
The lock seller in front of Tianhu Tomb took out a pair of marriage locks, but he didn't speak.
"I hear he's a mute."
"It's so pitiful. Everyone else is in pairs. He is the only one. I don't know if he has any family members."
The young lovers glanced at him, murmured in low voices, and walked away.
It was an old man of unknown age. The reason why he was called an old man was because he was dressed in shabby clothes and had long hair. His eyes were hidden under the hair, and he looked very vicissitudes.
The old man never spoke, and when someone came to buy locks, he handed over a pair, and he didn't say much about the rest.
"Grandpa, may I ask if this is Tianhu Tomb?"
A childish and lovely voice fell into the ears of the old man.
The old man did not speak, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes, as if he was deaf.
Unexpectedly, he stretched out his hand suddenly, and pulled the old man's beard forcefully.
The old man finally reacted. For the first time in many years, there was a fluctuation in his eyes without any emotion. He looked at the owner of those hands.
It was a three or four-year-old girl, pink and tender, with big eyes and a small oval face.
The little guy seemed very angry at the moment, looking at the old man with great enthusiasm.
I don't know where the little guy came from, and her parents are too careless, why did they allow a baby to run around.
Seeing such a little guy, the old man couldn't get angry for a while, he snorted and ignored the little guy.
"Grandpa, are you angry? I didn't mean it. My mother and father and I got separated. They said, if you get lost, you can wait for them outside the Tianhu Tomb." The little girl is very good at observing words and expressions, she is pitiful He walked around in front of the old man and said softly.
The old man glanced at the little guy, and his heart softened a little.
"This is Tianhu Tomb." After a long time without opening his mouth, the old man's voice was a little hoarse.
"Great, then I'll wait for mother and father here. Grandpa, would you like me to chat with you?" The little girl seemed to like this weird old grandpa very much.
Chat with him
He was the one who chatted with her, you self-righteous little guy.
The old man was annoyed in his heart, he snorted noncommittally, forget it, just leave it to her, he won't answer anyway.
"Grandpa, my name is Xiaoyue, what's your name?"
"..."
"Grandpa, do you have any family?"
Although the old man didn't answer a word, the little girl was full of interest and talked a lot about her and her family.
The old man already knew that there were five people in her family, including her, her parents, and a bunch of twin brothers who were about to be born.
An hour passed, and the little girl was still chattering non-stop. The old man didn't notice that he had gone from completely ignoring the little girl at first, to gradually nodding and shaking his head agreeingly.
"Grandpa, you are alone outside the Tianhu Tomb, aren't you Jimo?" The little girl's mouth didn't stop.
"I... I'm looking for something." With a slight twitch in his heart, the old man's lips twitched.
This is the second time he has spoken today, and also the second time he has spoken in several years.
"Looking for something? What are you looking for, Xiaoyue will help you find it?" Seeing that the old man finally opened his mouth to chat, the little girl's big eyes sparkled.
"That thing has been lost for many years, so long that I don't remember where it is." The old man shook his head.
"No, Xiaoyue will tell you a little secret." After looking around and making sure there was no one else around, the little girl said mysteriously in the ear of the old man. "Grandpa, I have very magical powers, as long as you tell me what that thing looks like, I can find it."
The appearance of the little girl made the old man feel a little funny, and the old man was a little shocked when he thought of it.
Laughing... He hasn't had this thing for many years.
"Tell me, grandpa, I will definitely find it for you." The little girl patted her chest.
Looking at the confident eyes of the little girl, the old man was in a trance for a moment.
There was once such a woman who also showed such self-confidence.
But unknowingly, he lost that person.
"That's... a pair of locks. The names of two people are engraved on them, Yexiu... Huyan." When the last name was said, the old man's voice was filled with indescribable sadness.
"Oh... Grandpa, wait for me here, wait for me." The little girl wondered if she heard the old man's words clearly.
Like the wind, the little girl ran away.
The old man did not speak, as if he had fallen into the deepest memories.
Just when the old man thought that the little girl would not come back again, after a while, she ran back.
It's just different from earlier, her hair and clothes are wet.
Judging by her appearance, she seemed to have fallen into the river.
There were small wounds on her chubby hands and feet.
"Grandpa, look, is it this?" The little girl looked very happy, and she stuffed the things in the old man's hands.
"What are you?" The old man looked at the appearance of the little girl, and then at the things in his hands.
When he saw the pair of locks in his hand clearly, the old man's eyes blurred instantly.
It was a pair of locks, a pair of locks left behind thousands of years ago.
"Yexiu, this pair of locks is just like the two of us. Huyan wants to be with Yexiu forever, and never leave." The woman's clear and beautiful voice seemed to be right next to her ears.
The lock was covered with rust and moss, but the words "Yexiu" and "Fox Smoke" on the lock were still vaguely visible.
"Thank you... thank you." The old man couldn't help but burst into tears.
He thought that he would never have a chance to get back the pair of locks.
"Grandpa, this pair of locks fell into the Feiyue River. Don't be sad. Now that the locks are found, you can go home and reunite with your family." The little girl didn't expect the old man to be so sad. , patted the old man's shoulder.
"My child, I, Yexiu, will remember your kindness for the rest of my life." The old man looked at the girl in front of him, and his voice was full of sincerity.
"Grandpa, you're welcome." The little girl smiled.
"Lingyue..."
Not far away, a young man and woman were walking over.
The little girl turned her head to look, and a bright smile immediately appeared on her little face.
"Mother, Dad, Xiaoyue is here."
They were a pair of parents, as dazzling as the sun and the moon. The woman was dressed in white, her eyebrows were as delicate as a picture, and the man beside her was tall and handsome, and he was nervously supporting his potbellied wife, and kept talking. slow her down.
Seeing the young man and woman, the old man's expression changed suddenly.
It was them... This female doll turned out to be their daughter.
The old man thought of the girl's delicate little face and her mother's eyes, and sighed in his heart.
"Ye Lingyue, how many times have mother told you not to run around." Yun Sheng, who was about to give birth, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her daughter, and immediately pulled down her face, and brought little Lingyue back , reprimanded severely.
"Daddy, mother is angry." Little Lingyue hurriedly hid behind her father, Ye Beiming.
"Little wild cat, don't be angry. Ling Yue has just returned to the human world, and she was a bit playful for a while. Be careful not to move your fetus." Ye Beiming hugged his wife dotingly, and kissed her lips. kissed.
After they went to the Eight Desolation God Realm, they had been busy for several months. It was rare for the family to come to the Human Realm. Yun Sheng proposed to visit the Heaven and Blood Realm. After all, this place has special meaning for him and Yun Sheng.
"Yehu, there is a child here." Yun Sheng blushed.
"Xiaoyue can't see anything, and can't see Daddy eating Mommy's lips." Little Lingyue, Xiaogui Dadi said.
Yun Sheng was angry and funny at the same time.
"Ling Yue, where did you go just now? How did you become like this?" Seeing that his daughter was injured, Ye Beiming was a little worried.
"I went to help an old grandpa find something, that old grandpa is very poor, he is right here..." Xiao Lingyue pointed behind her.
Outside the Tianhu Tomb, there was no one there.
"Hey, he was still there just now. It's so strange." Xiao Lingyue was a little depressed, and she finally became friends with the old man.
"She must be talking about a lock seller outside the Tianhu Tomb, that's all, it's getting late, let's go back." After Ye Beiming said, he held his daughter in his arms and hugged Yun Sheng.
"Daddy, can you tell Xiaoyue the story of Tianhu and Qilin?" The little girl's voice echoed in the wind.
A family of three, following the afterglow of the setting sun, walked along the Feiyue River.
Outside the Tianhu Tomb, the lonely lock seller was still lonely.
The long Feiyue River flows unchanged from ancient times, and the stories about Hu Yan, the head of the Tianhu clan, and Yexiu, the ancient Qilin king, are constantly being circulated.
