Waiting for the wind, waiting for the rain, waiting for your return

Mantingfang is just as its name suggests, the garden is full of fragrance, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers.Shu Ya took Si Luoyang's hand and sat quietly in front of the pavilion like this, admiring the flowers all morning, until the maid's voice sounded behind her: "Mrs. Guo, Young Master Xiao and King Xiaoyao from Kunlun Market have arrived, and they are waiting in the vestibule." .”

Si Luoyang took Shu Ya's arm, raised his head and begged, "Mother, don't see them, let's go back to Shengjing, shall we?"

Shu Ya pulled Si Luoyang up, with gentle eyes: "Yang'er, good boy, I will go back to Shengjing after chatting with them."

Under the shade of the trees in the vestibule, while waiting, Jun Fu also briefly narrated the fact that Princess Rongcheng fell under the forbidden curse because of himself.For so many years, he never dared to say that the boy who caused trouble was himself. He owed it to Si Luoyang and Duke Rong's government.Therefore, even though he has postponed the wedding time and time again for so many years, he has never taken the initiative to call off the engagement.

The sunlight cast mottled light and shadow on Xiao Zhongyuan's body through the lush shade of the trees, the expression on his face could not be seen clearly in the alternation of light and dark, and his voice sounded a bit distant: "So you choose Madam Weiguo?"

Jun Fu raised his head and closed his eyes slightly, opened them for a long while and said: "I've thought about it for a long time..." He suddenly approached Xiao Zhongyuan and stared at him: "We have walked hand in hand for so long, I never thought of standing on the opposite side of you, Not in the past, not now, and not in the future.”

His eyes were so sincere and warm, Xiao Zhongyuan thought of the fiery red phoenix flower again, Yun Weixia rose up, his heart throbbed a little, his Adam's apple was slightly twitching, and he managed to calm down and said: "Miss Si... "

While talking, I saw Si Luoyang running over, and hastily pulled up Jun Fu's sleeve: "Bai Changting has admitted in public that he did all of this, and it has nothing to do with my mother's marriage, brother Fu, you heard it too ,Yes or no?"

Xiao Zhongyuan bowed to Shu Ya: "Mrs. Guo, Princess Rongcheng is here."

Shu Ya looked at Xiao Zhongyuan and said: "Outside Yunshen Cave, I was injured by your golden light spell, and my whereabouts have been exposed. You came to see me a few days ago, and I knew you suspected me, so I don't want to hide it anymore. So I ask the little prince to arrange an appointment for Mr. Xiao to come to Man Ting Fang for me."

"Zhong Yuan thanks Mrs. Guo for being willing to tell the truth, so you have been involved in the case of Shengjing's heartbreaking?"

Si Luoyang went to La Shuya in a panic: "Mother, what are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense."

Shu Ya patted the back of Si Luoyang's hand affectionately, and continued: "Yang'er was under the curse of Suixi when he was 14 years old, and he definitely won't live past twenty. As a parent, how can you just watch your children die in front of you?" In the past five years, I have tried countless methods, and finally read the method of using golden elixir to extend my life in a forbidden book on cultivation.

The orthodox way focuses on refining one's own essence, while the sect likes to use the energy of spells, while the evil school is popular in harvesting and seizing the essence to refine the soul. The methods of cultivation in each school are different, but it has always been a taboo to cultivate in the right way.Although I am only a casual cultivator, I naturally understand the stakes involved. Once I embark on this path, I will definitely not be allowed in the world of cultivating immortals in the future.But for Yang'er, I have no choice.You can say that I am selfish, and I also know that the people I killed were also children of human beings, but I don't care about that much anymore.

You can't imagine that when I killed people for the first time, I was afraid, my hands were trembling, and I couldn't find the location of the golden pill several times, and the blood that tore that person's heart was bloody. I thought that if there was a mirror looking at me at that moment, the devil in the mirror must be ferocious and terrifying. "

In countless nightmares, those ghosts with big holes in their chests and blood dripping were chasing after her, howling and cursing, more and more, getting closer... Shu Ya closed her eyes and calmed down With ups and downs, he gritted his teeth and continued:

"After Yang'er took the golden elixir, the spirit veins did not dry up for a while. This kind of hope supports me to continue on this dark road. It's just that the cultivation level of casual cultivators is too low, and most of them are just illusory elixirs. It’s just that, I gradually began to look for celestial masters with higher cultivation bases. I’m already in the celestial master’s hall, so it’s really easy for me to get the whereabouts of the celestial masters.”

Si Luoyang's voice trembled: "So Uncle Yan was killed by my mother? At that time we thought it was a trap set by a demon. I saw my mother before I fell into a coma. Although it was strange, I never thought it would be my mother." Let me do it." And thinking that I actually ate the golden pill of Uncle Yan who had been watching her grow up, I almost vomited.

"Yes, I didn't expect you to follow Yan Ling out halfway. To save you, I had to reveal my whereabouts, but Yan Ling found out that I set up the trap. I didn't intend to kill him, but if he found out, I couldn't let him live I left. I was negligent for a while and was almost escaped by him. Fortunately, Bai Changting helped and killed Yan Ling. At that time, I didn't know that Bai Changting was the fox master of Qingqiu. He only said that he was a demon clan and came to Shengjing for business. Since I want pills, what he wants is heart, which happens to be able to cooperate with each other. After that, Bai Changting will deliberately send some monsters with higher cultivation levels as bait, and let the celestial masters and immortal disciples with higher cultivation levels catch them. There will inevitably be casualties during the demon process, so no one has ever suspected me."

Xiao Zhongyuan interrupted Shu Ya's words: "Are you the ones who attacked the Eight Great Immortals in the first place?"

Shu Ya smiled wryly and said, "Even if I want to obtain a higher golden core, I don't dare to attack people from the Eight Great Immortal Sects. All the corpses of the monks whose hearts were dug out and dissected will be carried to heaven after they are found." The basement of the master hall was placed in the basement of the master hall. I damaged the faces of those monks at first, in order to hide their identities and delay the time of discovery, but things developed a little out of control after that. I didn't kill the people, but the crime was done. They are all exactly the same. The first disciple of the immortal sect to be killed was from the immortal sect of Fuyu Mountain. As we all know, the immortal sect of Fuyu Mountain has the closest relationship with our secular dynasty. most.

I also asked Bai Changting about it, but he only said that it is not important anymore.What I want is the golden pill, so don't worry about other things.And he will keep his promise, regardless of whether I kill people or not, as long as all the golden cores are in his hands, they will be handed over to me.That being the case, I never asked him about his plans after that. "

The words of Bai Changting in the Ming Tomb suddenly came to mind very clearly:

"You sent these sacrifices to me with your own ghosts. Anyway, in the end, it will be blamed on our demon clan, so I can only accept it. In this world, there are many ghosts in human skin. But Don't worry, I will peel off the skins of these monsters one by one and show them to you."

The back is slightly cool, I thought it was all Bai Changting's work, but now that I think about it carefully, there are many forces behind it secretly disrupting the situation. Although Senior Brother Xu Sunan's death was done in the same way, it was obviously not the work of Bai Changting and Shu Ya.Is Bai Changting in charge of the game or is he also in the game?

Jun Fu also frowned, and glanced at Xiao Zhongyuan tacitly. Shu Ya did not dare to offend the Eight Great Immortals just to win the pill, and Bai Changting only needed the monk's heart to form a blood soul formation. As for whether this sacrifice came from the Eight Great Immortals? He doesn't care about the Great Immortal Gate, who will pull the Eight Great Immortal Gate into it?What is its purpose?

"The massacre of Guixu disciples outside Yunshen Cave, Bai Changting on the Shifang Terrace has publicly admitted that he did it. I don't understand why Mrs. Guo still admits it? You can push the boat to him. And..." Xiao Zhongyuan paused , the meaning is quite deep: "What I don't understand is why Bai Changting helped Mrs. Guo with this matter?"

Shu Ya took a deep look at Xiao Zhongyuan, and suddenly smiled: "Young Master Xiao, you want to ask what kind of deal there is between me and Bai Changting? If I say empathy, it is because I understand it. Do you believe it, Young Master Xiao?"

Xiao Zhongyuan frowned slightly, not knowing why.

"Many people only want to believe what they want to believe. Maybe it's not the truth of the matter, and they will choose to turn a blind eye. Therefore, Bai Changting's case of Shengjing is all on Bai Changting's head, and he is unwilling to argue because of his identity. No one will believe him, because no one will believe him because of the feud between the human race and the monster race.

Mr. Xiao, although you are excellent in immortal cultivation, you have too little experience in the world. Many things in this world are not black and white. Many people may have their own difficulties and reasons behind many things.Back then, the Eight Great Immortal Sects slaughtered thousands of living beings in Luanchuan, and I used the slogan of "No Monsters in the World" but kept the Monsters as my slaves. In the final analysis, it was all for my own greed.As the demon king of Qingqiu, Bai Changting's purpose is to rescue Mu Qingyi and all the enslaved demon clan people, so what's wrong?Who wants to have their hands covered in blood? "

Xiao Zhongyuan couldn't answer for a moment, he was stunned for a while before he said: "No matter what the reason behind it is, it cannot be an excuse to take someone's life at will."

"Then I hope that Mr. Xiao can stick to his heart like this in the future." Shu Ya pulled the corner of her lower lip slightly, and no longer defended: "I have said so much, I don't want to defend myself, after all, I have indeed stained my hands with the traces of innocent people. Blood, a mistake is a mistake. Since you are wrong, you must pay the price. Mr. Xiao, I am willing to confess on my own initiative in order to preserve the reputation of the Rongguo Mansion for decades. My husband does not know about this matter. I also implore Xiao If the young master is satisfied with my explanation, don't make the truth of this matter public."

Shu Ya suddenly stopped Si Luoyang extremely swiftly, preventing her from moving.

Next, she stretched out her hand to cut into her heart, and the bright red hot blood flowed out, and the great pain hit her. She bent over and curled up her body tightly.She has seen such a distorted face in pain, such a miserable howl, and such eyes unwilling to die countless times. She is indeed guilty of a heinous crime, and she should experience such pain herself.

Blood kept pouring out of his mouth, Shu Ya barely supported herself not to fall down, and vigorously dug out her golden core, and pushed it into Si Luoyang's mouth.

Jun Fu and Xiao Zhongyuan were stunned by the scene in front of them, and were stunned for a moment.

The warm golden core slipped from Si Luoyang's throat, and the thick spiritual power instantly reached the limbs and bones, nourishing the chapped spiritual veins, and Si Luoyang was already crying: "Mother, no...don't... …If I knew it was such a way to extend my life, I should have died when I was 14 years old."

Just now Xiao Zhongyuan came back to his senses and used his spiritual power to stop the blood gushing out of Shu Ya's chest, but Shu Ya's spiritual power had already been lost, her heart and veins were all damaged, and there was no way to recover.

Shu Ya looked at Jun Fu, and Jun Fu hurriedly held Shu Ya's increasingly cold hand: "Little prince, the emperor bestowed the marriage back then to win over our Si family, but there is God's will in the dark, so many years, relying on the prince I know that you and Yang'er have affection between you and Yang'er if you haven't retired the engagement. Now I can't be with Yang'er, and I will ask the little prince to take care of you in the future. As a mother, I will naturally agree to your marriage .”

"..."

"I..." Jun Fu couldn't help but look up at Xiao Zhongyuan.

Shu Ya increased the strength in her hands, and her eyes were full of pleading: "This is my last wish, and I hope the little prince can agree."

Jun Fu bit his lower lip, the entrustment of life is too heavy for him, not to mention that the person he likes is not Princess Rongcheng.It's just that under such pleading eyes, he couldn't utter words of refusal. After a long while, he said: "Madam Guo, don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will take good care of Luo Yang and find a way for her to break the forbidden curse."

"Then thank you, little prince." There was a slight sigh in Shu Ya's eyes.

Shu Ya gently stroked Si Luoyang's hair on the temples for the last time, wiping away her tears, as gentle as when she was coaxing her to sleep when she was a child: "As a parent, I want my children to be healthy, and I don't want to be rich and rich, but to be more accomplished." I want to keep you safe and happy all day long as my mother. Yanger, don't be sad, if you can live safely, that is my mother's greatest wish."

The noon sun was so warm, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers. Shu Ya seemed to see Luo Yang at the age of 14, as bright as the most blooming flower in spring.
