ephemera

Chapter 31

Fengliu Residence is located in a hidden place in the high mountains outside the Demon Realm. The few small bamboo houses that were tirelessly repaired in the past have resisted the passing of time, and they are still standing gracefully in the bitter wind and rain.Surrounded by green bamboos, the bamboo tips cover a corner of the sky, and it feels cool here.

I stood under the eaves watching the rain, the young man donned a crane cloak for me from nowhere, I thanked him, he looked at me and said, "I never expected that my lord would go this far alone."

When I heard him call me "Master", I speculated that he should be a person under Wu Tien's command 600 years ago, but I didn't understand what he meant, so I had to say: "It's not all dependent on me."

He looked a little annoyed, and said: "Huaji only has evil in his heart. As for Xiyan, if he hadn't asked Sir to go to the Heavenly Court, Your Excellency would not have been hurt in vain."

He is very much like the kind of child who hasn't grown up. Faced with unsatisfactory things, he still needs to find reasons from the outside world and simplify all complicated things.

I replied, "I did it voluntarily, besides, I got the Asura Saber back, didn't I?"

"That's because the adults are very strong."

I said, "If it wasn't for the help of the Milky Way and your delay, I would have died."

He asked me eagerly, "Did I help your lord?"

"When I met you for the first time, you brought my statue with you. I think you are helping me collect beliefs in the name of an immortal official."

He smiled and said, "I just didn't expect to be in a different camp from my husband."

I asked him, "When we met, why did you attack me?"

"I don't... I just... don't really like seeing grown-ups with strangers, they're always uncomfortable," he said.

I turned around and took a good look at him, and thought to myself: It’s strange, why can’t I recognize him at all, Wujuan’s military strength at that time has grown from a few thousand to 10,000+, those few people who often work for Wujuan, I I still remember everything, but this one in front of me, I just can't remember who he is.

He saw my doubts and said: "600 years ago, I was just a nobody, and I had no chance to help adults."

"You've helped me so much," I said.

He stopped answering, and I said again: "You have escaped the punishment of heaven, and now you have become very strong."

He was silent for a while, and then said: "I was too timid. My lord became like that at that time. I always felt that we were going to lose, so I returned to the Demon Realm alone. I'm sorry, my lord."

I smiled and said, "Life is precious, there is nothing wrong with you doing this."

"Not exactly right, is it?" he asked me.

I said: "For the authorities, it is always difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, and the way of heaven is so vast, who will tell us what is right and what is wrong?"

The young man smiled sadly and said, "My lord has a kind heart."

I wanted to tell him that I was far from being worthy of the words Zhaixinrenhou, but after all, I felt that I was on a different path with him, so I didn't argue, just asked: "What's your name?"

He said loudly, "Juntian."

"It's a good name."

"My mother took it for me."

When he mentioned his mother, his expression suddenly lit up.

I asked, "Have you been taking care of Fengliuju for hundreds of years?"

Jun Tian let out a "hmm", and then said to himself: "I always feel that the adults will come back here one day."

I couldn't help being a little sad, and felt that I was too hypocritical, but no matter what I said, I was the only one who came back now.

Fengliuju used to have a lively life, so it seemed extraordinarily lonely at this time.

Juntian asked me eagerly: "What do you plan to do next, my lord?"

I am worried about Xiyan, and I wish I could go to Yinhe now, but Juntian always stops me, saying that now Heavenly Court has sent many people to look for me, and I am good at calculating and calculating, but I am a little stubborn about Xiyan. At that time, it was inconvenient for me to say that I was going to the demon world, but I just said: "I have no plans yet."

He seemed a little disappointed, and said: "This time, I can help you with many things. We can go to Nantianmen and Lingxiao Palace again... As long as you are willing, I can activate the Wuyun Pagoda again."

My heart sank, and I asked, "Is it because of the Wuyun Pagoda that Guanmiao went to the Demon Realm?"

"Yes."

I only heard Wujuan talk about the Pagoda of Wuyun, saying that opening the Pagoda of Wuyun can draw out the power of the ancient evils suppressed in the pagoda, but he is very contemptuous of this kind of sorcery, so he didn't say much. Talking in general terms, it doesn't explain how the Wuyun Pagoda is activated and closed.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Juntian continued: "In the Five Aggregates Pagoda, all the evils that cannot be killed by the punishment of heaven are locked in the Five Aggregates Pagoda since the Emperor of Heaven unified all realms. , but the Emperor of Heaven stopped taking care of the Three Realms a hundred years ago, and the Pagoda of the Five Aggregates was abandoned. The new Demon Lord is busy managing housework, and his mind is not on it."

I asked, "Your power comes from the Five Aggregates Pagoda."

"Yes, everything I do is so that one day, my lord can truly rule the world."

I pondered for a while and asked, "Will the power of the Five Aggregates Pagoda have a backlash? Will your body and mind be affected?"

He froze for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Is your lord caring about me?"

I nodded and said, "That's right."

He laughed like a child who has been praised and said, "No one in the world has ever cared about me except my mother."

I thought of something again, and asked him: "That night when you turned into a fairy official in Jieyang Forest, you mentioned 'every evil' in the words you said, do you have any news about him?"

He seemed a little unhappy and said, "Not sure."

"Huaji has been following you, but lost track, Xiyan... Xiyan's ten-fang bird can't find your location, can you tell me where Huaji is?"

But Juntian looked at the sky and said, "My lord, look, the rain has stopped."

I followed his line of sight, but felt unreasonably bitter in my heart, always missing something, he lifted his foot and left, halfway there, I couldn't help coughing again, he stopped and turned around and said: "My lord , you have to trust me."

Before I could answer, he said again: "Huaji will harm your lord."

He suddenly drew a seal in the air with two fingers together, and then said: "With your strength, if you still can't open my seal, please rest, sir, and I will take care of everything for you."

After he finished speaking, he left, and the cold wind of early winter poured into my sleeves. I reached out and took off the crane cloak, and stood outside the house for a while, trying to see if my spiritual power was enough for me to break his seal. Sure enough, as he said, the magic power in the seal is sufficient, and there is nothing I can do for the time being.

I don’t know why, I knew he cared about me, but I only felt angry, but the anger turned into remorse. I thought back when Xiyan was locked in the barrier by me, he still had love for me meaning.

He never blamed me, didn't blame me for never telling him the truth, didn't blame me for never going back, and didn't blame me for forgetting him for nearly a hundred years.

I fell asleep drowsily, my body was very hot and dizzy at the same time, but I didn’t feel any pain. I thought to myself, since I wasn’t injured, what’s the matter with this situation? Could there be some kind of miasma in the seal?

Suddenly I found a person standing beside me, the familiar spiritual power made me suddenly feel scared, but I couldn't move, so I had to keep saying to myself: "It's just a dream."

"It's not a dream, dude."

I forcefully opened my eyes and looked at the Heavenly Emperor standing under the candlelight. His face never changed, tough and stern, but occasionally he would show the tenderness of giving you the world, but that tenderness never belonged to me.

He reached out and touched my forehead, and said as if mocking me: "I never knew you would have a fever."

"...I didn't expect you to come here either."

He said: "It's just a touch of the law of space-time hidden phenomena."

I wanted to get up, and he reprimanded me: "Don't move, I think you have a childish temper, and you want to pretend to be sick to trick me out like you did when you were a child."

To this day, I still respect and fear him. I don’t know if it’s because of a fever. I suddenly wanted to be willful again, so I said what I dared not say hundreds of years ago: “I don’t want to kill you , and I don't want you to disappear."

I want to show you Xi Yan, if I can find him, he will break your curse, you said there will be no one to spend my life with me, but I found this man, he is like a dream to me , my grace, often reveals to me a tenderness that others can't hope for.I think he will be kind to you, because he has tasted the same deep loneliness as you...

Can we go back to Guixi, just like ordinary family members?

The Emperor of Heaven said: "I know, I have known it from the beginning."

I suppressed the strong discomfort in my body and asked, "You named him 'Xiyan', because you already knew about his existence, right?"

"That's right, from the moment you met him, your fate has turned to this tragedy."

"I know...I know why I chose to forget him."

"I understand, Thuy, I'm sorry."

"I want to see him again."

"Duyue, I don't know how deep your obsession with him is, but you can go to Guixi to see that he was turned into a fairy by me before he got rid of his demon body, so it was only his demon who died this time." That’s all, after the demon body is gone, he is the real god.”

I clenched my palms tightly, not wanting to fall asleep, but the Emperor of Heaven was a little between my eyebrows, and I only felt a gust of wind blowing by my side. As soon as the candle was extinguished, my will relaxed and I slipped into the shelter from everything.

It was like a serious illness.

Even Juntian was very surprised, why I fell asleep for three days because of the fever, Juntian seemed to be hiding something from me, he always dared not look me in the eye, I stopped him and asked: "Juntian, what happened? "

He put down the hot tea in his hand, thought for a moment before saying, "my lord promises me, even if I say so, you can't go to Kunlun."

"it is good."

Juntian said: "Guanmiao sent people to destroy Xiyan's truth, and some immortal officials are cutting down that tree."

I was unsteady, and almost spilled the tea in my hand, but he didn't panic when he saw me, and asked: "I think they just want to lure adults, but I think they are delusional, Xiyan is not important to adults at all." ,Yes or no?"

He looked at me earnestly, and I finally lost all pretense and said, "No, he's important, it's just that I know where to find him."

Jun Tian put down his teacup and pondered: "I understand, but does your lord really not think about what we should do next?"

"what you mean?"

"Changing the world, isn't your lord going to rebuild order?"

He spoke urgently, and I asked, "Can you tell me why you want to restore order?"

He said very viciously: "The Demon Lord once killed my mother, I want revenge, I want to kill all of them!"

I tentatively said: "With your current strength, you can do it too."

He suddenly looked at me and said, "No, my lord, I want to stand with you and let the Three Realms recognize my existence."

I pondered for a while and said, "I know, but I don't actually want to kill the Emperor of Heaven."

He stood up excitedly and asked, "Why?"

"He... has been with me for a long time. I grew up slowly, about a thousand years ago, and he was with me."

"How can adults be soft-hearted because of this kind of thing, the world has changed, hasn't it?"

"But I found that my heart has not changed."

He was almost out of breath, his eyes were full of contempt for my incompetence, I put down my teacup and said, "Can you let me go now?"

He was silent for a while, but left before me.

"Qi Kai" records: When I heard about the sun in Kunlun Mountains, the ax cut the strange wood, and the sound was clear and clear, like complaints and complaints, and the heaven and the earth resonated.At that time, the sky cracked, all things fled, and all living beings looked forward to Nuwa's coming to the world. There were immortals who used their bodies as stones to return to their breath, and the obscene rain would stop.

I stood on the edge of the cliff, and heard the sound of logging one after another. I didn't step forward, but turned and walked towards the sky mark in the sky.In that return, on the shore of the sea of ​​abundance, will there be anyone waiting for me?
