Death Princess

"So," Zhao Lu habitually picked up the teacup, but found that it was empty, so she had to put it back on the table angrily, "Did you dream about what Shuangxue said?"

"...Yes and no, it's the same room and water tank, but what I dreamed was," Chao Bofan opened his mouth a few times before he could barely spit out the next few words, "The person who rushed into the room and witnessed everything , it’s me, but the person in the vat is... the young master. It’s exactly the same as... six years ago, when I found A Niang."

Hearing this, Zhao Lu and Qin Hui did not show any surprise on their faces, as if they had been waiting for such a diametrically opposite dream.

Seeing this, Zhao Bofan's eyes lit up, he stood up and asked: "Young patriarch, Master Qin, what else did you dream about?"

Chao Lu frowned, hesitated for a moment: "Not really."

Turning his head, Chao Bofan put his hope on Qin Hui, but Qin Hui shook his head when he waited.

"How could this be?" The boulder pressing on Chao Bofan's heart was put back again before it could move a little bit in the future, and just now he forced a calm expression in front of Han Shuangxue, but now it completely collapsed, revealing a deep sadness Worry and fear, "Why are the dreams completely opposite? What is true and what is false, and how can we avoid these two futures?"

"Because the future will change," Zhao Lu also stood up, "Bo Fan, when did you dream about this?"

"last night."

"And Shuangxue was a dream I had just now when I was taking a nap." Qin Hui finished clicking, but Chao Bofan also instantly understood the meaning of the two brothers and sisters.

The future will change, predictive dreams will prompt the relevant people to act differently from the original future, and as a result, the predictive dreams of the next person will be changed.That is to say, Chao Bofan dreamed of Han Shuangxue's death last night, which led to a change in his established behavior and changed the future, so that the person in the water tank that Han Shuangxue dreamed of today is no longer herself, but Chao Bo sail.

So, for now, Han Shuangxue's dream is the closest to reality.

The person who died will be me, and the owner of the empty skin in the water tank will be me.Chao Bofan didn't know whether to rejoice for Han Shuangxue's "life" or lament for his own "death".

"The future will change according to the choices of the people in the matter." Seeing that Chao Bofan has come to his senses, Zhao Lu did not explain in detail, but said, "The precognitive dream will become the source of this change. Avoiding one thing often leads to more irreversible results. So..."

"So spying on the future is against the law of heaven. Even if the Phantom Spirit Clan can glimpse the destiny of all things, they should do nothing and just watch?" Chao Bofan's tone was a little anxious.

"That's not the case." Qin Hui shook his hand and suppressed Chao Bofan's anger, "Even the Dao of Heaven has an opportunity to take advantage of, not to mention that we Spirit Race have never believed in such sayings about destiny. The meaning of the existence of predictive dreams It lies in the change, but this kind of change to the future needs to be established without changing the dream.”

"Change the future without changing the predictive dream?" Chao Bofan repeated the words that sounded like a dream at first glance.

"Phantom spirit clan, phantom spirit art, the channel between truth and falsehood, past and future." Zhao Lu picked up a white piece that fell on the ground, "To change the future without changing the scene in the dream, just Just deceive yourself and the world." Pa, throwing the white piece back into the chess box.

Lie to yourself to lie to the world, just like the phantom Eldar village back then.But the prerequisite for these "deceptions" to be successful is the precise time and place.After all, one wrong step will lead to ten thousand wrong steps.Even in the competition between Zhao Lu and Feng Yuwei at that time, she had counted everything, but she didn't count Zhao Liang's strange skills.She missed the calculation, so she paid the price, she became devoid of internal energy, and became a useless person.

But this prediction is even more vague.

At an angle that Chao Bofan could not see, Chao Lu clenched her fists.

"The matter has come to this point, so we can only take one step at a time." Standing up and walking behind his sister, Qin Hui patted Zhao Lu on the shoulder, but instead of looking at Zhao Lu, he turned around and asked Chao Bo Fan, "Bo Fan , How much do you know about what happened six years ago?"

"I..." Chao Bofan frowned and shook his head, "I only remember the time when I found A Niang, and after that, my eyes went dark, and when I woke up again, I was already here, and I didn't even know what to do. I know who sent me here. A Niang has always lived in seclusion, I really never thought she could offend anyone. As for my biological father..."

A trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, "He abandoned me and A Niang very early, I don't even know who he is." His clenched fists kept trembling, "I only know that he and A Niang seem to be It's the baby kiss made by the older generation, and he has always been dissatisfied with it, so..."

doll pro.A father who never showed up, a mysterious person who sent Chao Bofan, but no one remembers.This seemingly foggy matter has been further added with a strange color.

Suddenly, a certain idea flashed through Zhao Lu's mind, but she didn't catch it in time.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Lu withdrew her thoughts: "I will investigate what happened six years ago. In the past few days, you and Shuangxue have tried not to remove the places outside Xueming Valley and Jianzong. I will order to strengthen it." Open defense, secret defense, and strictly control the people who come in and out." After thinking for a while, he added, "If you are willing, I will let the phantom spirit guards protect you in the dark."

"There is no need for the Huan Lingwei. At the moment when the court does not know when it will attack the Spirit Race, it is more important for them to protect Xuanling Mountain. I will not leave the mountain." After thinking for a while, Chao Bofan refused Chaolu's proposal.

Chao Lu didn't force her anymore.

. . .

At noon, two people were standing at the entrance of Xueming Valley.The bright sun melted the snow on the ground, a few squirrels ran up the bare branches, and shook a piece of half ice and half water onto the horse's back. The master moved in the direction and pulled the rein a long way.

"Hmm..." Zhao Lu on the side ignored the horse's complaints, but focused on her toes.

After a long time, she raised her head and stared at Qin Hui, who was about to get on the horse, "Is it really going to leave today? It's already noon, and it gets dark early in winter, and it won't be long before I have to find a place to spend the night. Why don't I stay at home more?" Stay for a few hours and leave early tomorrow morning. Besides, you didn't say hello to your parents, when they know you left without saying goodbye, they will definitely catch me and nag me."

"That's why I chose this hour that no one would expect, and run with my tail between my legs, otherwise I will be caught by my father, and my ass that is not yet healed will suffer again." Qin Hui smiled, a little exaggeratedly Pointing to his buttocks, he said in a slow tone, "You also know that my brother and I have never been very good at the scene of saying goodbye. Don't look at how my father and mother usually look, if they let them When the old man came to see him off, he probably had to chatter with snot and tears until dark."

He patted Zhao Lu on the shoulder, "As long as little Lu Lu comes to see you off, brother, I'm satisfied."

"..." I don't know why, at this moment, Qin Hui is a little bit reluctant to give up, and a little bit of a beating.

"By the way, before you go," Qin Hui said suddenly, taking his foot away from the horse, "there is one more thing to clarify. What you told Bo Fan just now, you didn't dream anything, is it a lie?"

"Hmm..." Seemingly expecting that Qin Hui would ask this question sooner or later, Zhao Lu cunningly did not answer, but asked instead, "Why not you?"

"Zaza, dear sister. Let's talk about it," Qin Hui threw the rein in his hand to the ground, "What did they both dream about?"

"...Hey," a rare kind of loneliness flashed across Zhao Lu's eyes, she turned her back to Qin Hui, and hammered the dry tree trunk in front of her with some catharsis, "I didn't dream of anyone's death, but It's a dream... a dream of a world, a..." Turning her body halfway, Zhao Lu looked into her brother's eyes and smiled, a bit bleakly, "A world without me."

Even though he had already guessed the result, when Zhao Lu said these words, Qin Hui still couldn't make any sound for a while.

"I'm done," after saying the dream in her heart, Zhao Lu seemed to be okay, patted her snowy hands, turned to face Qin Hui, and said, "What about you? What about your dream?" What's up?"

"I..." Qin Hui licked his dry lips, "I didn't dream of anyone dying, I just dreamed...the me in the dream...without a sister, or rather, I don't remember myself I once had a younger sister." Unknowingly, when Qin Hui said this, the knuckles of Qin Hui's hand holding the saber hilt were pale, "Including Auntie, Auntie and Yi'er, no one remembers."

"It's really been forgotten." Zhao Lu smiled unconscionably, "I just said that I was my own sister, but when I turned around, I completely forgot about me."

In the past, Qin Hui would have been able to fight Chao Lu for [-] rounds, but today, he really has no intention of fighting back.This dream appeared last night, which is why he has been depressed today, and why he changed his decision to return to Beijing early in the morning, and pestered Zhao Lu to play several games of chess.He originally wanted to find an opportunity to mention this while playing chess, but he dragged it off until noon, and he couldn't speak.

Qin Hui always felt that, as an elder brother, he was extremely incompetent.Eight years ago, he could only watch helplessly as his sister was seriously injured trying to protect himself.Eight years later, he thought that he had become stronger and could protect his sister, but the reality only knocked him back to his original form in an instant.Once again, under the similar cedar tree, he saw his dying sister helplessly.

But today, he had clearly dreamed about his sister's future, dreamed that her sister would disappear from the memory of all those who knew her well in this world, but he couldn't stay by her side to protect her, but had to go back to the intriguing and deceitful world. The capital city, and a group of people who have nothing to do with him.

"What?" Seeing the self-blame in his elder brother's eyes, Zhao Lu sighed in his heart, pretending to be relaxed, "Is this the reason why you are so unhappy today?"

Qin Hui didn't answer because he didn't know what to answer.

"Here," something was handed to Qin Hui, who lowered his head, "Although I don't know how my existence was erased, it probably has something to do with the phantom power. So, just hold this next to your body, You won't forget me."

After taking the object the size of the tip of his index finger, Qin Hui was stunned.

It was an oval iron ball like a quail egg, and Qin Hui could tell at a glance that it was made of iron slag controlled by Chaolu with thunder spirit power, but it was infused with phantom spirit power.Lei Lingli is different from illusion, cold, and flame. The fire will extinguish, the ice will melt, and the illusion of no one will exist. However, the traces left by Lei Lingli are substantial, and it will not follow the master The loss of spiritual power, or the departure of the master will disappear.That is to say, even if Chaolu is no longer there, or its existence is erased by illusion, this elliptical iron ball is still there.And the phantom spiritual power in the iron bead will imprint the existence of Chaolu in the mind of the bead holder in a disguised form.

Is this what Little Lulu means by "hold it close to your body and you won't forget it"?Through this thing infused with the two spiritual powers of morning dew, remember her existence.

Holding the iron ball in front of his eyes, Qin Hui vaguely saw a thin line dividing the ball into two halves.He groped with his fingertips on the smooth beaded surface, and subconsciously injected some of his spiritual power inward.With a click, the iron beads split into two like a box with the lid opened. Qin Hui looked down at the slightly larger half of his head, only to find that there were only two other identical iron beads inside.

Putting the two small iron beads in the palm of his hand and opening them in the same way, Qin Hui saw silently that there were still two smaller iron beads inside the iron beads.The hollow iron beads were interlocked with each other, and each of them was covered by Chaolu for six layers. It was not until the innermost iron beads had turned into iron sesame seeds that Qin Hui could no longer open them.

Holding countless large and small oval beads in his hands, the emotions accumulated in Qin Hui's heart for a whole day were all tossed away. "This is..." The corner of his mouth twitched, "What?"

Zhao Lu pointed at Qin Hui excitedly, then at herself, without answering.

"...What?" Qin Hui began to doubt his eyes, and what made him even more puzzled was that he actually understood what Zhao Lu meant.

"You and me," as expected, Zhao Lu said the answer that was so irritating that people would not pay for his life, "Double yolk eggs, don't they look like it?"

"..."

Your double yolk eggs are made of iron!

Your family's iron eggs have a full six layers in a set of two!

No, you are the fucking iron egg!
