[Xian San] Red Clothes

Quanzhou Prefecture is located in the west of Anxi County, facing the sea in the southeast. As the state capital, it is much more prosperous than Anxi County.Long Yuan used the space array to teleport Solanum nigrum to the gate of Quanzhou Fucheng. As soon as she walked in, she saw a missing person notice posted on a bulletin board not far away, which was roughly the same as what Zhao Yingchen said.

Long Yuan narrowed her eyes, carefully looked at the portrait attached to the missing person notice, and compared it with the Zhao Yingchen she saw in her heart, and finally, Solanum nigrum said what she was thinking: "Sister, this portrait doesn't quite look like Brother Zhao. .”

"Yeah, maybe they just made a mistake." Long Yuan nodded in agreement, looked at the portrait, curled her lips, "What kind of tattered portrait, the painting is so strange, does someone really look like this? Let me draw it for Zhao Yingchen Take one and ask if anyone recognizes him."

The plan was finalized in this way, the two first went to find an inn to stay, and then went out to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Pick up the brush, dip it in ink, and start drawing on the rice paper.

As Long Yuan painted, Solanum nigrum's eyes widened, and finally she could only describe her expression as tongue-tied.She stared blankly at Long Yuan finishing the "Portrait of Zhao Yingchen", and then heard her ask triumphantly, "How is it, Xiaokui, do I look alike?"

Solanum nigrum:"……"

Solanum nigrum didn't speak, and Long Yuan took it as her acquiescence, and became more and more proud.She carefully put the finished picture aside, then put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and stretched.It was already evening when they arrived in Quanzhou, and it was already dark when Long Yuan finished painting.Although there is no curfew in Quanzhou, the flow of people is much less after nightfall. Instead of going out, it is better to take a good rest.

"Xiaokui, let's rest first, and we'll find out tomorrow." While talking, Long Yuan had already yawned, and lay lazily on the bed.

Solanum nigrum looked at the painting on the table again, and a crack appeared in the image of the wise and omnipotent sister in her heart. She went to the bed and sat down, and asked cautiously: "Sister, do you really want to use that painting tomorrow?" Do you draw to ask people?"

"Of course." Long Yuan looked at her inexplicably, then yawned again, "What's the matter, is there something wrong?"

"No, nothing..." Solanum nigrum hurriedly shook her head, and then lay down on the bed.Long Yuan beside her has fallen asleep quickly, and she is still thinking over and over again, can she really find someone with that painting?

The night passed quickly, and the next morning, Long Yuan woke up early, woke up Solanum nigrum full of energy, took the portrait she drew, and walked outside.She first asked the innkeeper if he recognized the person in the painting, and after getting a negative answer, she asked about the missing person notice.

Speaking of this, the boss became excited, because the whole city knew about this matter, Zhao Yingchen's wife Ruan Shi issued a missing person notice, and was willing to exchange a hundred taels of gold for her husband's news.One hundred taels of gold is not a small amount of money. According to estimates by those who are interested, it is almost all of Ruan's money. Just for the gold, it is enough to make everyone pay attention to this matter.

According to the innkeeper's guidance, Long Yuan and Solanum nigrum found the home of Ruan's family in the west of Quanzhou Prefecture.It was still early now, and there was already a constant flow of people outside the Ruan family's house, and those who came out without exception left in a hurry with disappointment on their faces.

Soon, Long Yuan and Solanum nigrum met Ruan Shi.The first time she saw her, Long Yuan glanced at her swollen abdomen before raising her eyes to look at her face.It can be seen that Ruan Shi is a beauty, but the worry and running around for many days made her look extremely tired, even her eyes were bloodshot. Seeing Ruan Shi like this, Long Yuan couldn't help but feel sorry for Ruan Shi even though her heart was for Zi Xuan. A little bit of sympathy, and I thought it was not easy for Ruan Shi.

Long Yuan told Ruan about Zhao Yingchen, but only concealed the part about Zixuan, saying that he was rescued and temporarily living in Anxi.The more Ruan listened, the more excited she became, and finally stood up from her chair, walked quickly to Long Yuan, and held her hand tightly: "It's him, my Zhao Lang, if he can come back, I will reward both of you with a hundred taels of gold..."

"We're not here for money," Long Yuan curled her lips, "Forget it, you spend the money yourself." She took out her painting and asked Ruan Shi, "Look, is this he?"

The first moment Ruan saw the painting, the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching. She was about to nod, but she froze in place, not at all, not at all, and extremely embarrassed.Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Long Yuan couldn't help feeling a little impatient, raised her chin, and said, "What's the matter, is it right, tell me?"

"This...but I don't really see it, I just think the hairstyle looks a bit similar." Ruan said tactfully.In fact, adult men's hairstyles are very limited, and men walking on the street basically have this hairstyle.

"Hmph, why is your eyesight so bad? You can't even see it." Long Yuan said disdainfully, put away the painting, and took Solanum nigrum by the hand, "Then let's go first, wait a few days for Zhao Yingchen to come, and then bring him come to you."

On the way back to the inn, the two remained silent until Solanum nigrum's voice broke the silence: "Sister, so Brother Zhao is Sister Ruan's husband, right?"

"Probably... Only when Zhao Yingchen arrives can we really know." Long Yuan was noncommittal.

"If so, what will sister Zixuan do?" Solanum nigrumi asked sadly, she didn't know what to do about this matter.

"Xiao Kui, don't think too much about it. This is a family matter between the three of them, and no one else can interfere." Long Yuan stretched out her hand and touched Solanum Solanum's soft blue hair. Zhao Yingchen made his own choice."

She narrowed her eyes slightly, although she spoke lightly to Solanum nigrum, her own heart was heavy.Should he choose love and be with Zixuan; or choose responsibility and return to Ruan's side?Either choice is painful.Or, Zhao Yingchen returned to the family, and Zixuan married him as a concubine?But, is Zixuan willing to be so wronged?

The more she thought about it, the more disturbed Long Yuan became, she simply shook her head and stopped thinking about it.For her, the only good news is that there is no such problem between Chonglou and her.

For the next two days, Long Yuan wandered around the Quanzhou Mansion with Solanum nigrum, and no one mentioned Zhao Yingchen's matter again.On the third day, Zhao Yingchen and Zixuan finally arrived at Quanzhou Mansion, and the four of them met in the inn beside the city gate.

Zhao Yingchen was pointed out when he was in the inn, saying that he looked a bit like the portrait on the missing person notice, and this incident made him more silent.Zixuan also felt uncomfortable, but she still pulled herself together and said to Long Yuan and Solanum nigrum who were walking downstairs quickly: "I haven't seen you for two days, A Yuan, Xiao Kui, how are you doing? Quanzhou Mansion is Isn't it more interesting than Anxi County?"

Long Yuan nodded, and said to Zi Xuan: "Zi Xuan, let's go back to the room and talk about what I heard in Quanzhou Mansion."

The four went upstairs and came to the room, Long Yuan told them what happened at Ruan's house that day.As she spoke, she noticed that Zixuan's brows were tightly furrowed, while Zhao Yingchen covered her head and sat on the chair with a face full of pain.

"...That's the way it is, Mr. Zhao, you can choose whether you want to see Ruan Shi or not. If you go, I will tell her that you will come; if you don't, I will tell her what happened before. I lied to her " Long Yuan said calmly.

Zixuan immediately turned her gaze to Zhao Yingchen, but Zhao Yingchen still covered his head and sat motionless.

After a long time, he finally spoke, forcing the uncontrollable pain in his calm voice, "Let me think about it for a while, okay?"

And after thinking about it for a while, seven days have passed.Zhao Yingchen didn't go out, so Zixuan stayed by his side as well.In just seven days, Zhao Yingchen lost weight quickly and became very emaciated.He had thought countless times to ask Zixuan if she would like to be a concubine, but in the end he gave up. If he did, he would be too selfish, not only sorry for Zixuan, but also for the Ruan family.

Until Zixuan finally couldn't bear his pain and hesitation, she said to him: "Yingchen, you... go back." She shook her head and said, "I can wait, my life is very long, one day I can wait for you , so, you go back, that is your home, with your wife and children..."

"Zixuan..." Zhao Yingchen held her hand, his eyes were red, "How could I be willing to leave you..."

And at this moment, Long Yuan and Solanum nigrum were about to come to them, standing at the door, Long Yuan could hear the voices in the room clearly.She couldn't stand Zhao Yingchen's hesitation any longer, and pushed the door open vigorously, and walked quickly into the room, while Solanum nigrum behind her was startled by her, quickly followed in, and then closed the door.

At this time, Long Yuan had already walked in front of Zhao Yingchen, she raised her eyebrows high, with a slightly mocking smile on her lips, and said to him: "It's been ten days, Mr. Zhao hasn't figured out what to do yet?" Zhao Yingchen didn't say a word, she said again, "It's nothing more than two choices, if you want to be with Zixuan, then go, act as if nothing happened, leave with Zixuan directly, live happily ever after? Either go back to your home, where your wife is, do you know that Nguyen is six months pregnant? No matter which side you choose, you have to live up to one, what's the use of hesitating any longer, can you get both of them if you continue to hesitate? Are you not disappointed?"

"You may think that I don't hurt my back when I stand up and talk," she sneered slightly, "but if this drags on, it will only make both women more sad! Hurry up, okay, are you still a man?"

Zixuan and Solanum nigrum opened their mouths at the same time, as if they wanted to dissuade her, but in the end they both looked at them quietly without saying anything.

"I..." Zhao Yingchen clenched his fists, his nails almost piercing into his flesh. He was silent for a long time, and finally said slowly, "Before I make a choice, I want to retrieve my memory, but..."

"Get your memory back?" Long Yuan frowned slightly, thought for a while, and finally said, "The demons have a spell called Xueru Huihun, which can make people go back to the past. But I can only scratch the surface of this spell." , I’m afraid you can only let people see your past, but for you, it may be just right.” She paused and said, “Then you should think about it, if you don’t get back your memory, you can still treat it as nothing. It didn't happen, and I was with Zixuan; but if you regain your memory, then the original incident will become a burden that you can't get rid of for the rest of your life."

Zhao Yingchen shook his head: "Even if I have no memory, this matter has become a burden that I can't get rid of. What is the difference between knowing more and knowing less, then I would rather know more."

"Okay, I've got a bit of guts." Long Yuan's face turned pale, "Then I can cast this spell now, and let me know when you're ready."

Zhao Yingchen closed his eyes and nodded, his hesitant expression finally became firm, then he opened his eyes and looked at Long Yuan.

Long Yuan spread out her palm, and a small knife appeared in her palm. She held the knife and swiped at her finger, watching the bright red blood gushing out from her finger.Wiping her own blood on the center of Zhao Yingchen's brows, Long Yuan took out a formula in her hand, muttered something in her mouth, and finally shouted suddenly: "Go!"

Following her shout, Zhao Yingchen closed his eyes, and fell limply on the back of the chair.Zixuan quickly straightened him, looked at him for a while, and finally sighed quietly.

"I'm sorry, Zixuan." Seeing Zixuan's absence, Long Yuan finally said.

"No, that was Yingchen's choice. You don't have to apologize to me. Instead, I would like to thank you for helping him." Zixuan shook her head and smiled slightly, with bitterness in her smile, "And he finally Whatever the choice is, I don't blame him."

"Sister Zixuan..." Solanum nigrum murmured, with a sad expression.Even if Zhao Yingchen chooses Zixuan in the end, he will never lose his memory, let alone the guilt in his heart.And if Zhao Yingchen left Zixuan, the two fell in love but couldn't stay together, and they would feel the same pain in their hearts.

"It's okay, I can wait for him." Zixuan walked to Solanum nigrum, and gently touched Solanum nigrum's head, "Little Kui, don't be sad for me, I'm fine."

There was silence in the room for a moment, until Zhao Yingchen finally opened his eyes and stared blankly at the front. After a long time, he slowly raised his head, his lips were trembling, and his expression was painful, but he insisted on saying to Zixuan: "Zixuan, Sorry...I still have to go back."

"Well, I know, you should go back too..." Zixuan nodded, trying to hide her expression, "It is enough to have this fate. You go back, I will wait for you, wait for you In the next life, we will be together again..."

"Zi Xuan……"

Long Yuan sighed, took Solanum nigrum by the hand, and walked out of the room.

Being able to love each other is already a miracle.But falling in love but not being able to stay together is simply a great joke from God.

She raised her head, looked at the sinking sunset outside the window, and remained silent for a long time.

It has been ten days since she left the Demon Realm. I don't know how many days have passed in the Demon Realm?

What happened to that person in the Demon Realm now?

Is he... okay?Have you ever thought of yourself?

Now I suddenly miss him very much.

The author has something to say: Yes, this is the work "Xuejian" by Dachu Hongkui, made by the ghost world, the ending of Xuejian reveals its true face, when I played the ending of Xuejian for the first time, I smiled at this picture for a long time.

As for why the portraits don’t look like it, because I think ancient paintings are really difficult to distinguish from real portraits. For details, please refer to the portraits of emperors, especially Zhu Yuanzhang...
