Heaven is fearless

Chapter 70: Dreams

I don't know what he said to Lian Yunxian, and Xi Yi didn't pay attention to it at all. This kind of idiot and resentment drama is not what he is interested in. If it wasn't for Xu's growing a face that made him care a little bit, he wouldn't have done it at all. stay until now.

that face...

Xi Yi looked at Xu Sheng with a sad expression from a distance, his eyes drifted over his slightly twitching cheeks and his erratic and embarrassed expression, this kind of expression...appeared on a face with familiar features, even the familiar face became a little Weirdly strange.

After a while, Lian Yunxian left first, Xu Sheng stood in a daze for a while, and walked out of the garden in a daze, Xi Yi stood up unhurriedly, and followed with the child in his arms.

The gate of the play garden was ajar, and the scholar's robe disappeared in a flash at the corner. Xi Yi pushed the door open with one hand, took a step outside, followed his steps, and saw the glorious scene of golden lanterns replacing the moon outside the garden. It dissipated like a foamy mist, and day came here instead of night.

Time disorder.

Xi Yi calmly patched Liucheng in his heart, not surprised at the sudden change of scenery in front of him, turned his head to look, and the theater just now was gone, behind him was an ordinary alley.

"aggressive"

The crisp and cheerful sound of horseshoes came to this side. It was still early in the morning. In the hazy and fresh morning mist, the vendors who got up early and set out their stalls opened the steamer. All of a sudden it takes over the senses.

Xi Yi looked at the wide street in front of him, and the appearance of Liucheng in the daytime was clearly displayed in front of his eyes. With the profound background of this city, the regular distribution of houses and shops gave him a wonderful sense of sight everywhere.

The faces of passers-by have a peaceful and leisurely look, and even poor people have clean clothes.

"...Isn't this Loudong County?"

The law uses a question sentence, but the tone is an unquestionable affirmative sentence.

Loudong County, the capital of the short-lived dynasty before the Shaowei Dynasty, was also the place where Ghost King Xiyi lived during his lifetime.

The ghost of the dreamy and prosperous dynasty, with the fireworks and old local accent buried in the years, suddenly revived here.

The sound of horseshoes is getting closer. Those who can ride horses on Huangdu Avenue are all noble sons. Hearing the sound, there are about four or five horses coming.

The sound of hooves knocking on the floor tiles passed by in a hurry. In the twilight of the morning sun, several luxuriously dressed youths swung their whips and galloped past. The leading youth stared ahead, his eyes flitting casually on both sides of the street. , reined in the horse abruptly, and the wide sleeves swung in a semicircular arc by his side.

He raised an eyebrow, and a helpless look appeared on his elegant and handsome face, raising his voice and shouting somewhere: "Brother? Ji An?"

The young masters behind him all followed him and stopped, and when they heard him calling for someone, they couldn't help but look over there, with joy and surprise on their expressions: "Mr. Chunsheng is here?"

The young man in the lead didn't get a response, raised his eyebrows even higher, and raised his voice a little oppressively: "Xu Shiyan!"

Mr. Xu San, who was famous in Loudong, was praised by the late emperor when he was young, "Look at this boy's face, blooming like flowers, blooming like spring", so he got the nickname "Mr. Chunsheng", and he is praised again and again after he ascended the throne. He is "Loudong Yuzi, a fragrant tree in the courtyard, you can see it for a hundred years." After a long time, more people call him "Chunsheng Gongzi" or "Loudong Yuzi" than people who call him by his name. The upstarts who moved in even thought that the third son of the Sanyin Xu family was named "Chunsheng", and made jokes about it.

The grandeur of Xu San's appearance is recognized by the Donggaomen of the whole building. Nowadays, the south wind is prevailing. Whether it is noble ladies or noble sons, the number of people trying to marry the Shanyin Xu family has reached the highest peak in hundreds of years. Every time he attended a banquet, it would turn into a man-marking meeting in the end, which made the third son even more reluctant to go out.

——Things are rare and precious, the more he doesn't like to go out, the more others want to see him.

So when Second Master Xu called out his younger brother's name, those friends who traveled with him all lit up their eyes.

The colorful and gloomy toga with large sleeves dragged lazily on the ground following the footsteps of the owner. The tall and slender young man leaned against the wall, his eyes hanging down lazily and gloomyly. The red face is beautiful, and even the impatient anger has a thrilling beauty.

He raised his eyes and looked at the young man on the horse with an unclear expression.

The young man on the horse was wearing a large-sleeved toga similar to him, with jade around his waist, his outer clothes were cold green, with the same thick embroidered patterns on his cuffs, his appearance was elegant and handsome, and his brows were full of peace dyed by wealth and power Grace.

——It was the complete opposite of the cowardice and daze just now.

Obviously the same face, but with a different expression, the high-ranking Second Young Master Xu and the persecuted and oppressed Xu Sheng are obviously two different people.

same face.

Except for their looks and temperament, the two of them are really exactly the same.

Xi Yi looked at the "brother" in front of him, smiled inexplicably, and then greeted naturally: "Where are you going, brother?"

The Second Young Master Xu was about to ask him why he was here when he was interrupted, and subconsciously answered his younger brother's question first: "We are going to the Jicui Temple outside the city, and I heard that there are monks wandering over there. It's very powerful, didn't Aniang ask for a lottery last time, so I'll go and ask."

The handsome young man tilted his body slightly on the horse, with a smile on his lips: "You haven't said why you are here, you said yesterday that you don't want to go out, and even refused the banquet in the palace."

Xi Yi looked up at him, showing a look of indifference towards the imperial power, Second Young Master Xu turned his eyes and noticed the child in his arms, his expression froze: "This child..."

His lazy and noble brother casually and frankly removed the wide sleeves, let him take a look, and then quickly covered them back: "Oh, I picked them up on the road."

Picked up a child on the road...

For this answer that fits his younger brother's personality, Second Young Master Xu couldn't laugh or cry, but at the same time he was relieved. It would be bad for his younger brother's reputation to have an illegitimate child before marrying a wife.

Thinking of this, he folded the horsewhip in his hand, and told his little brother who was always too young to grow up: "Go home earlier, Yunniang made lotus seed soup, and gave you a copy, remember to drink."

As he spoke, he clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and galloped out of the city with a few companions, leaving behind a third young master Xu standing there, thinking of that name.

—— Yun Niang?

It's not that he thinks too much, it's really hard not to think of Lian Yunxian when the name appears under the current circumstances.

"When Xu Shiyan was alive, was there someone like Yunniang by his side?"

The law pulled out the setting set he made for Tiandao, carefully flipped through two pages, and answered firmly: "All avatars are inserted in the real background. There is no such person as Xu Shiyan on the real timeline, but Xu Er The son has a concubine, indeed named Yun Niang, she is the daughter of an ordinary household, she has always been very low-key, nothing worth remembering... Ah, then the dynasty collapsed, the Northern Hu went south, the family was overthrown, the Xu family suffered a catastrophe, and the children were scattered. Running away, Xu Er disappeared, and even Yunniang was gone."

The law finally came to a conclusion: "There is this person, but the sense of existence is so low that she can be regarded as not existing."

"Then what about the scholar just now? It can't be a coincidence that he looks exactly like Xu Er."

"...I can't find it." The law grumbled and complained, "Your power is everywhere here, and I have been greatly disturbed... But there is no trace of distortion on the scholar. From the current point of view, it should be Someone who actually existed - or at least someone who existed."

The cold and gloomy ghost king with fierce ghosts in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows heard this and pondered for a moment, and the law whispered: "Today is already the morning of the sixth day, and his thinking is dissipating."

Xi Yi heard this and looked down.

The child with closed eyes showed a near-sacred tranquility, the long eyelashes were quietly closed, and there was a faint smile on the thin face, as if he was indulging in a peaceful dream.

But Xi Yi knew that at this moment he would not have any dreams at all.

What does it feel like to lose your mind?

It's like a living person watching his body crumble and his soul dying out. He can't shout, cry, or even have the right to express fear.

Then he will clearly perceive the whole process of his own death.

Xi Yi lightly rubbed the child's face with his fingers, like a father expressing affection for the child.

"Let's go and meet that Yunniang." Ghost King said softly, "She has trapped us in these clumsy illusions for long enough."

Tiandao has no interest in these stories of idiotic men and women. There are great sorrows and joys between heaven and earth. To Tiandao, the love and love of mortals is just a drama repeated countless times. Doesn’t he see enough of those mistakes and life and death?These are just a fish swimming in the ages, and with a slight flick of its tail, not even a single wave can be stirred up.

Walking along the avenue full of willow trees, Xu Zhai's magnificent mansion appeared in front of him. The main door was closed, but the side door was open. Seeing Xi Yi approaching, the servants greeted with smiles and opened the door for the third son graciously. .

He raised his foot to enter the door, and the screen wall in front of him suddenly turned into a garden with sparse flowers and trees. A gentle woman in a light green dress came from not far away, holding a mahogany tray. When she saw Xi Yi, she stopped and showed her face. She smiled softly and peacefully like a pearl: "The third son is back? I boiled lotus seed soup to clear the fire and moisten the lungs, and I added more sugar in it."

She is not a peerless beauty who can surprise people at a glance. She has a beautiful and graceful appearance, and her every frown and smile are full of tenderness like water, and...

She has an extremely strong ghostly aura about her.

None of the people Xi Yi met along the way could compare to this woman, she was like a human figure made of ghost aura, so eerie and cold that even the ghost king couldn't help but be amazed by it.

With such a strong ghostly aura, he could only think of one person.

"Yingzhou ghost girl?"

The ghost king said whatever came to his mind, and he didn't even bother to cover up or try.

The moment the name was spoken, the smiling eyes of the woman in Tsing Yi suddenly melted into intense blackness, the whites of the eyes were occupied by the blackness of the pupils, a pair of ghostly eyes stared at Xi Yi faintly, and the long hair tightly tied with pearl hair accessories fell on her shoulders , Messily covered half of the cheeks, the fair and smooth shiny skin quickly turned dry and pale from dehydration, the plump muscles were tightened, and the wrinkled texture covered the neck.

Two blue will-o'-the-wisps ignited in her eyes.

"I advise you not to do anything to me, otherwise I will take off the skin off your skeleton and throw it in front of Xu Er."

Xi Yi's tone was steady, and he threatened her fiercely.

A shriveled and sharp ghost claw protruded from under the tray, landed on Xi Yi's chest, and the ghost king pinched his wrist with three fingers.

"Knowingly committing a crime?" Xi Yi pinched the ghost claw, smiled, and crushed the wrist with a "click".

A turbid and angry moan came from the ghost girl's throat. In the next second, the grim and terrifying grieving ghost turned back into a gentle and delicate woman. The mahogany tray was overturned on the ground, and she held her twisted and bent wrist in one hand. There is water vapor in the eyes that will not fall.

She looked at Xi Yi, with secret vigilance and fear in her eyes, and her voice was soft and euphemistic: "Ah Yun and Your Honor have never met in life, and have never done any heinous things. Why is Your Honor so hostile to Ah Yun?"

Xi Yi was startled by her words, and thought for a while: "It seems that you were the first to show murderous intent to me, right? You were also the one who shot first."

His straightforwardness choked Yingzhou Ghost Girl, who was stunned for a few seconds before murmuring: "But..."

But a person suddenly jumped out and pointed out her inhuman identity. As a feared ghost, she subconsciously wanted to kill someone to hide her identity. Isn't this a natural way of thinking?

Xi Yi saw what she was thinking at a glance, and had no opinion on it, so he glanced up and down at her, and reconfirmed: "Lian Yunxian?"

The ghost woman who barely kept her smile completely lost her smile this time.

Like a hedgehog whose soft belly was touched, she froze, and her pupils turned into dark ghostly eyes for a moment.

Seeing her reaction, Xi Yi understood.

Lian Yunxian and Yunniang are the same person, but Lian Yunxian seems to have no memory of Yunniang. This is... the same person at different times?

Xi Yi felt that things were starting to get complicated again.

Are they parallel individuals existing in different time layers in Liucheng at the same time, or is it the same person who jumped to different times?

This is a bit nerve-wracking.

The law that was suppressed by the strange force in Liucheng clicked his tongue unhappily, it can't see the past and future in Liucheng, it can only be used as a pendant for Tiandao, and now it pops up again: "Is Lian Yunxian transformed into a ghost after death? But Yunniang's life trajectory is very clear, this is a mortal, she shouldn't have anything to do with ghosts... Did she take her home?"

"It's not impossible. If Yunniang has been low-key and boring all her life and has nothing worth remembering, it can't be ruled out that she did it on purpose, maybe to hide the fact that she took the house?"

Yunniang lowered her head, trying to show her innocence: "Ayun has never done any evil, but just wants to stay with Xu Lang for the rest of his life, and I hope that you will show me your hand and spare Ayun's life."

Xi Yi tilted her head: "Xu Lang? You are quite persevering, and you found the reincarnation of that scholar?"

Yunniang was silent for a while: "It's just a stupid woman's reluctance. Your honorable master knows that Lian Yunxian must also be an old man. Although Ayun doesn't remember where he met you, he still wants to rely on the little affection from the past. , please turn a blind eye and close your eyes, how about you have never seen Ayun? Ayun just wants to end this obsession, and will never harm anyone."

Xi Yi looked at her thoughtfully.

He thought it was the scholar who failed Lian Yunxian, which made Lian Yunxian resentful, and thus turned into a Yingzhou ghost girl, but Yunniang swore to him that she would never harm anyone, so how did she become a Yingzhou ghost girl? ?What happened to Liucheng after that... there were countless ghosts lingering in it, and the scholar who stayed with her forever?

More importantly, when did she give birth?There is also the power of heaven pervading the remaining city...

Ask any questions.

Xi Yi looked at Yunniang: "How did you become a ghost girl in Yingzhou?"

The author has something to say: King of Ghosts: I am too lazy to solve puzzles, just ask if you have any questions, hit them if you can’t, and ask again when you are convinced.
