Between seas

Rouge Knife was silent for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Miss Yan, the paper figurine, and said slowly: "I just can't get used to it. Every passer-by in Ye City knows the story of Miss Yan, but no one has ever said a word of justice for her. Use her experience as a topic of conversation after dinner. Or add some love jokes and make them into dramas to sell money."

"I just can't get used to it." The corners of Yan Zhidao's lips raised slightly, showing a mocking smile: "I still remember the wish Miss Yan made back then, saying that those who bullied her would be punished. The people who know nothing clearly, but just say a few words based on hearsay, then judge others with a superior attitude, why is this? In my opinion, this is a kind of insult in disguise, and it deserves to die."

Rouge Knife's hands were clenched suddenly, and because of the strength, there was innocence at the knuckles.His expression was indifferent, but his body trembled slightly, and some unspeakable negative emotions seemed to be suppressed in his red eyes.

Jiang Yizhou applauded for him, and said with a smile: "Well said! It's a pity that it's unreasonable. You are too hostile."

The paper figurine Miss Yan's voice trembled slightly, and she called out in a low voice: "Yan Hua..." She originally wanted to find Rouge Knife to make a new wish, and wanted to go to the hometown of the Western Regions with him.But when he heard that the plague that broke out in Yecheng was actually caused by himself, he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Yan Hua...Thank you for giving me this name." Yan Zhidao was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: "This young master said that I am very hostile, and I have always been like this." Showing an indifferent smile: "I don't know how the god wants to punish me this time, should he interrupt and throw me at the bottom of the dry well, or make me disappear completely?"

Rouge Knife was determined that Shen Boru would punish himself severely, with a relieved smile on his face, as if he had encountered a very happy event, relaxed and happy: "Actually, this is also good, I don't need to meet anyone again, and then I will make it happen for them." wished."

Bao Chunyan felt strange, she couldn't figure out why Yan Zhidao was so obsessed with fulfilling wishes for others, why would she have nothing to do when she was free?So I couldn't help asking: "Why do you always want to grant the wishes of the people you meet?"

"Because I was born to help others realize their wishes." Yan Zhidao said, but her eyes were full of confusion, as if she was doubting what she said.I don't know what he suddenly remembered, and his eyes suddenly became gentle again: "When I was in my hometown in the early years, many people would come to me every festival. They would sing beautiful songs Ballad, pray that there will be no disease or disaster this year. It is a lively and warm feeling, I like it very much.”

Rouge Knife showed a sad expression: "But later, Queen Mother of the West died. I still remember the last king, that beautiful girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. When the king's capital was breached, the weather was fine and the sun Nuan. The little girl hugged me tightly and ran to the tower alone. She is young, but she is very courageous, and she wants to die for the country."

"As a fetish that has been enshrined by them for generations, I naturally feel the inner feelings of this little girl. She was terrified and was crying all the time. But she still jumped from the high tower and fell beyond recognition. "

"Before she died, the little girl made a wish to me. She hoped that all the warlike aliens would die from the plague in a painful way. To be honest, her wish was very difficult for me. I am an exorcist The things that suppress evil spirits can only drive away the plague ghosts, but will not attract them. But the little girl cried so sadly before she died, she has nothing but this wish, and I think I should help her realize it."

Shen Boru thought for a while, and said, "So you drove the plague ghost to those aliens?"

"Yes, that's right." Rouge Knife looked a little tired, and continued: "I drove it all away, and the little girl's wish was fulfilled. Later, I was called a demon, and I broke the blade, suppressing it. Sealed under Jingchuan."

Yan Zhidao laughed at herself, bowed her head and said, "It was such a boring time to be locked in a small box. I couldn't see anything, and I was the only one in the dark."

"Fortunately, I was discovered by a group of Hu merchants, and they brought me to the Central Plains."

Yanzhidao has calmed down so far, and her tone is much more gentle: "After wandering around like this for a few years, I met Miss Yan. I remember she said that she would give me something after we met, but she was poor, so she had to give me something. I have a name."

"This is the first time in thousands of years that someone has given me a name."

"You all know about Miss Yan. I just can't stand it. She is a very good girl and shouldn't be treated like this. So, I killed five members of Yan's family." Yan Zhidao laughed to himself: "Then I was locked up again, and I broke the blade and threw it at the bottom of the dry well."

"I can hear the sounds outside. I was locked up in Jingchuan before, and I could hear the wind blowing across the grass, and I could hear girls humming short songs and driving cattle and sheep past. But in Yecheng, I couldn't hear these things. The sound. If there is any difference between the two places, it is that I want to go home."

The Yaowang Temple was very quiet, only the voice of Rouge Dao.

He shook his head again: "Miss Yan always said that she wanted to go home with me. At first I was very happy. But when I thought about it carefully, the Queen Mother of the West died, and although her homeland was still there, those who sang and danced around Yaochi People are gone. Even if you go back, it's not really home anymore."

The paper figurine Miss Yan stared blankly at the Rouge Knife, and after a while, she awkwardly lowered her body, knelt down in front of him, and said in a hoarse voice, "Yan Hua, this is the end of the matter, I'll go home with you. Go back to the home you mentioned, I promised..."

Rouge Knife drove the plague ghosts to Yecheng on a large scale, and no matter what the reason was, it was impossible to be forgiven.But the ancient country of Jingchuan has long since perished and disappeared. The meaning of Miss Yan's words clearly meant that it would perish together with Rouge Knife.

"Miss Yan, you have to think about it clearly." Shen Boru sighed: "Once you do this, you will be wiped out, and you will never be reincarnated."

Miss Yan lowered her head and said calmly: "The plague in Ye City was caused by me, and Yan Hua is still my sword, so I should give everyone an explanation." She laughed and asked: "I think Go back to your hometown with you, would you like to?"

Yan Zhidao's expression was dazed for a moment, he leaned forward a little, and stretched out his hand to Miss Yan: "Okay." At this moment, Miss Yan got out of the paper figurine's body, revealing her original soul body, and held her back. Rouge knife.The midday sun shone directly on her body, making her whole body transparent.

After Miss Yan lost her body, she lost the ability to speak, humming a huqin piece intermittently.That was the tune she stole from outside the music hall.

The tune is very short, not very nice, but it makes people feel a style different from the Central Plains, as if seeing the yellow sand and scorching sun thousands of miles away, the spring breeze willows, and the beautiful singing and dancing around the blue lake. girl.

Accompanied by the singing, the figures of Miss Yan and Rouge Knife gradually blurred and slowly turned into a few points of Huaguang.A sudden wind blows, and those blue-red rays of light rise with the wind, just like gorgeous sparks, flying all over the sky.

The bright moon rises out of the Tianshan Mountains, among the vast sea of ​​clouds.The wind is tens of thousands of miles long, blowing through the Yumen Pass.

The sky suddenly dimmed, and with the sound of spring thunder, endless rain fell, silently washing away the epidemic atmosphere in Yecheng.

patter.

"What is this?!" Bao Chunyan suddenly found that the broken knife and paper figurines that had fallen on the ground were gone, replaced by a handful of dark blue soil-like things.

Shen Boru walked over, observed carefully for a moment, and said, "It's Xiyang."

Breathing soil, the legendary soil that can grow by itself and never deplete.But this is only part of it. The five colors represent the five different emotions of greed, hatred, ignorance, love and hatred. What appears here should be 'hate'. "

Hate, both regret.

Shen Boru bent down and collected the blue soil on the ground.Jiang Yizhou frowned and said, "Ah Chen, what do you want this thing for?"

Shen Boru paused, lowered his head to avoid Jiang Yizhou's sight, and said four words in a low voice: "Return to the ruins."

Guixu is a bottomless abyss, no one knows how deep it is, but anyone who gets close will be swallowed by it, it is a veritable place of great evil.The gods of the heavens once sealed the entrance of Guixu with chaotic vitality, but in recent years the seal has cracked, and sea water from all over the world has poured into Guixu.

Therefore, the Xi soil is a very useful thing.

The author has something to say:

I think this article can be renamed "The Story of a Mentally Disabled Couple Looking for Soil"

Xi soil: from "Shan Hai Jing Nei Jing".In the original text, it belonged to Emperor Yao. In order to control the flood, Gun stole this self-growing soil and was executed.

The setting of the soil in the article refers to the five-color soil, and the soil in the ancient books does not have so many coquettish colors.
