The Obsessive Shou Moves On

Yun Qingci's lips trembled violently.

It wasn't Li Ying who went back, who was that person? !

Li Ying hugged his head.

The great pain wrapped him tightly like a spider web, and the suffocating despair tore him to pieces. He was gasping for breath, and sticky blood dripped from the corner of his mouth onto the thin white singlet.

He had imagined countless times how he would face Ah Ci when he returned. Although he had been reminded that the ending of this world could not be changed, he thought he could accept this ending.

He thought he could.

But I hate it.

Why not him.

Why didn't he go back.

Why is it another him.

At this moment, he finally couldn't help but began to feel dissatisfied.

Why, it's also Li Ying, why can't it be him! !

"Your Majesty..." A voice came from outside, Li Ying suddenly waved his hand, and a strong wind pierced through the gate of Chaoyang Palace. He roared with red eyes: "Get out!"

He raised his eyes, staring blankly at the lamp.

He worked so hard, suffered all kinds of hardships, and finally got a chance, why should he give it up to others.

Why? !

Li Ying's thin fingers pressed into the pool of blood.

Because of the force, the bones on the back of the hand jumped sharply.

His body was slightly stooped, his ashen complexion looked like a ghost from hell, and he walked over slowly.

Yun Qingci saw his intention.

He wanted to destroy the lamp.

Yun Qingci didn't stop it, not because he couldn't stop it, but because he didn't care what would happen after it was broken, whether he would disappear, whether everything in another world would be wiped out with the broken lamp, he didn't care at all.

If it is annihilated, it is naturally the best, and it will be settled once and for all.

Anyway, as long as Li Ying is happy, he doesn't care if there is an afterlife.

He knew that Li Ying loved him even more crazily than he loved him, and that was enough.

Li Ying held down the lamp with his hand.

The monstrous hatred and jealousy made him stare at his palm.

Yun Qingci followed, stared at him, and said, "Damn it, Ah Ying."

"Anyway, it's not important."

If the person in that world is not you, then what does it have to do with Yun Qingci?

Yun Qingci placed his hand on his and said, "A Ying, if you want to live, live well, if you don't want to live, you can come and find me."

"I don't want to see you like this again..."

Looking at the formerly vigorous and haggard emperor, he felt a pain in his heart.

Enough is enough.

He saw Li Ying again, knowing that his life was not good after his death, that was enough.

Li Ying grabbed the lamp, stared at the red wick for a long time, then slowly hugged it in his arms, slid down the table and sat down.

Yun Qingci didn't understand what he wanted to do: "A Ying, you should smash it, it's useless."

"If you believe it, you have it; if you don't believe it, you don't have it; if you believe it, you have it; if you don't believe it, you don't have it;

After all, he put away all his jealousy and anger, but despair and helplessness engulfed him like a tide.

He hugged the lamp tightly, bowed his head tiredly and quietly, his long disheveled hair blocked his pale blue face.

He sat like this until dawn.

On the second day, Liu Ziru, who had not been summoned all this time, pushed the door cautiously and entered. Seeing the blood on the corner of the screen, her expression changed slightly.

He rushed over quickly, his eyes fell on the lamp tightly held by Li Ying, his eyes turned red suddenly, and he knelt down in front of him: "Your Majesty..."

Li Ying raised his eyes to look at him, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "If you believe it, you have it, if you don't believe it, you don't. Sir, I'm going back, look."

He carefully exposed the lamp, Liu Zirudang even shed tears, he stretched out his hand to touch the child in front of him, tremblingly withdrew his hand: "What the alchemist said, you can't believe it, whether that world exists or not?" , we don’t know...Your Majesty, Your Majesty, turn back, you still have time to turn back now.”

"No." Li Ying shook his head: "He didn't lie to me. He said that the ending of this life cannot be changed, but when the light was red, I went back. Now, when the light is red, I have already gone back."

Liu Ziru didn't know where his obsession came from, he said: "Your Majesty, don't be obsessed anymore, the light is red, you are still here, you don't..."

When he met Li Ying's eyes, there seemed to be a monstrous flame burning in it. It was the light that Li Ying had longed for for 12 years. He couldn't say it, crushing his hope.

"There is always a me who wants to stay." Li Ying said: "But I have already gone back, I believe, I have gone back."

Liu Ziru clenched her fingers tightly.

Yun Qingci already understood what he meant.

Believe it or not, he believes that another world has been propped up under his obsession, and there is another one that he has gone back to. At the moment when the light turned red, Li Ying split into two, and one traveled through time. Back in the past, one was left behind in the present.

These two are the same Li Ying.

Next, Li Ying was as usual, even though he looked like he might collapse at any time, he still kept his back straight. He helped Li Heng deal with everything, and on the day before the enthronement ceremony, he went to the imperial mausoleum with the lamp .

Only Liu Ziru was with him.

Li Ying entered the room where the tomb guard lived, and sat quietly by the window looking at the sky.

In the past month when the lights were red, he didn't deliberately eat anything he didn't like, and he didn't eat much porridge and side dishes every day. He was almost skinny and skinny.

Liu Ziru quietly came to him, handed him a jade cup, and said in an old voice with regret, "Your Majesty, drink some water."

Li Ying took it, took a sip, held the teacup with his fingers, and placed it on the table again.

He sat like this for a long time. When it was dark, with Liu Ziru's help, he changed into the coffin and put on the crown. Yun Qingci could see that the outfit on his body echoed what he wore when he was coffined .

On Li Ying's slightly blue face, there was a hint of nostalgia and tenderness, like a young man who was about to meet his sweetheart.

Although he is no longer young, his sweetheart has been lying in the coffin for 12 years.

It's night, the crescent moon enters the hook.

The Son of Heaven picked up the red glazed lantern and walked out. Liu Ziru followed behind him with a lantern in his hand, tears in his old eyes, but he didn't dare to let Li Ying find out, so he could only force his eyelids and rub his eyes frequently.

Yun Qingci chased after Li Ying, looked him up and down, and said, "Are you coming to see me? Ah Ying, in fact, you...you are fine if you come."

It should be better than you being alive, but it's okay to be dead, he thought.

The black-robed emperor came to the gate of the underground palace and stopped, followed by Liu Ziru, listening to him say: "Thank you sir, I will send it here."

Liu Ziru knelt down: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty, think about it again. If the Queen knows about it, he will love you too."

"After the light is red, within seven to seven days, I must complete the agreement, otherwise, all my painstaking efforts will be in vain."

Liu Ziru didn't know exactly what agreement he had made, but he knew that if Li Ying went in today, he would never come out again.

Li Ying has always believed that as long as the agreement is fulfilled, the world where he returns can be preserved, and Yun Qingci, who is still alive, can be preserved.

But to Liu Ziru, that so-called world is nothing but an illusion, it is just a consolation to support the emperor to live in this world, no one knows whether it really exists, only Li Ying remembers the alchemist's words, believe it or not then no.

Now, in order to fulfill the other one, the one that only exists in imagination, he is reborn to his past self, and walks into the underground palace where the queen lives.

No one knew that he would die tonight, and no one knew that the 13-year-old emperor would leave this world completely.

Liu Ziru shook his head: "Your Majesty, think twice."

"Sir, take care."

The dragon boots moved forward, the hem of the clothes swayed, and the diadem hit his forehead.

The emperor walked into the underground palace, and the stone gate slowly closed behind him.

Yun Qing turned his head and saw Liu Ziru lowering his head heavily on the ground, it was a pretty standard kowtow.

Only Liu Ziru sent him off alone.

Yun Qingci quickly followed Li Ying to the center of the underground palace, and in the circular gossip formation made of fine sand, those transparent and crystal-clear little snakes straightened up one after another.

Under the high platform where the sarcophagus was placed, the female snake that had been fed by Li Ying all year round came out elegantly, and also straightened her upper body to look at Li Ying.

Yun Qingci smiled and said: "They used to ignore you when you came here, but today you are very welcome..."

His smile hasn't faded yet.

Li Ying had already walked into the fine sand without looking back, all the snakes rushed up in an instant, and crazily climbed up his body along the dragon boots.

Yun Qingci's eyelashes fluttered slightly.

He saw that Li Ying walked to the side of the sarcophagus unswervingly, his body was already covered with those things, he stretched out his hand, and calmly put the red lamp in the groove right in front of the sarcophagus.

The sound of flesh and blood being bitten rang in my ears.

Yun Qingci stood still and did not move.

He just froze for a moment.

Really just froze for a moment.

Probably, roughly, a few breaths, or a dozen breaths?

When he realized what happened in front of him, the crown on Li Ying's head fell from his hair to the ground.

The crown beads made a crisp sound when they collided.

Yun Qingci stepped forward and rushed into the fine sand, watching the black-robed emperor fall heavily.

Under the wide dragon robe, the flesh and blood body turned around and was mothed into a white bone.

The transparent snakes that had sucked the flesh turned crimson one after another. Yun Qingci knelt down and sat down. All the red snakes immediately scattered and fled as if they had seen something terrifying.

Yun Qingci stretched out his hand and caught Li Ying's body.

The skeleton that lost its flesh and blood became very light.

Yun Qingci carefully supported his skull. At this moment, he was still in a daze. These snakes were gnawed really clean. Apart from being moist, this bone didn't have any broken flesh.

He looked down at the head in front of him, through the hollow eye sockets, into the skull of the person in his arms.

"Li Ying?"

He opened his mouth.

Then he said, "Am I hallucinating?"

He closed his eyes and pressed his jaw against the still-warm bone.

When he opened his eyes again, his expression finally changed uncontrollably, and it was a smile that was uglier than crying.

"I can, I met you..."

"I can touch you now, look, Ah Ying."

"Li Ying, Li Ying? Li Ying—"

"I can meet you ahhhhhhh—"

He screamed and cried, holding the other party tightly in his arms, shaking like chaff all over.

Outside the underground palace, Liu Ziru, startled by the sound, raised his head. He staggered a few steps, and when he was about to rush over, he was held tightly by a hand.

An alchemist made a silent gesture.

Liu Ziru staggered and was dragged out.

There was silence in the underground palace, Yun Qingci finally raised his head from the skull's arms, his eyes fell on the motionless snake hidden under the fine sand.

Drops of water from the tip of his nose fell on Li Ying's body. He slowly picked Li Ying up, put him in the sarcophagus, and lay down with him.

Then he patted the fine sand on the crown and put it on Li Ying's head.

He carefully picked up his hand bones and folded them carefully in front of his chest.

Then he climbed out of the sarcophagus, walked out of the fine sand, and brought a stone lamp.

"Li Ying is dead, you all should die too."

With disheveled hair and resentment in his eyes, he rushed over like a ghost, threw out all the fine sand, and smashed the little red snake hidden in it to pieces.

The group of snakes ran wildly, seeming to be terrified of him, Yun Qingci held the stone lamp, and chased and smashed it like crazy.

The underground palace was soon covered with blood, and there were spots of red everywhere.

Yun Qingci was full of perseverance, he could lie motionless beside the sarcophagus for several hours, staring at the tracks of these snakes without moving.

As long as you show your head, you will kill with one blow.

He didn't know how long he had been battling wits and courage with these things, until he went all over the underground palace and could no longer see a single snake, finally threw away the stone lamp and walked slowly towards the sarcophagus.

His whole body was covered with the blood of Li Ying, or those snakes.

When he came to the coffin, he looked at Li Ying who had become a skeleton, and then at himself who was intact.

By the way, he picked up the red glazed lamp that Li Ying had placed in the groove on the head of the stone hall, and the lampshade hit the coffin wall hard, and it was torn apart.

The crimson candle fell on the silver-robed man's body, and it lit up in an instant.

Yun Qingci stepped forward and pulled the mechanism of the coffin lid. The heavy coffin lid made a booming sound and slowly moved up.

Yun Qingci stepped on the stone platform, the corners of his blood-stained clothes fluttered, and his figure disappeared into the coffin in an instant.

The fire in the coffin was raging.

The sound of the coffin lid moving stopped, and the sarcophagus closed tightly.

"From now on, no matter where you go, I will follow you."

The author has something to say: Ci Zai: Then you were reborn, so I was also reborn.

Li Huang: ...

Suddenly I don’t know what to say.jpg
