[Seshomaru Doujin] Shenyue

Mudan was controlled by Yao's order and dragged Yuelian to Yao's palace. After closing the doors and windows, she would not go out by herself or let Yuelian go out.

There is a faint fragrance in Yao's palace, calligraphy and paintings hang quietly on the wall, and even the bead curtains hanging down have never trembled, just like a pure land free from disturbance.

Peony stood in the middle of the room in a daze, clasped Yue Lian's wrist with one hand, and stretched out the other hand towards the closed door.But every time I stretched out, my fingertips retracted again.Her eyes were half clear and half cloudy, her face was as pale as paper, and her tightly knit brows showed great pain.

"Peony..." Yue Lian suddenly said softly, "Don't cry."

"Crying?" Mudan was startled, she let go of the hand that was holding Yuelian, and stroked her cheek, which was wet and hot.

Yue Lian took a look at the pinched wrist, patted Mudan on the shoulder, and said: "That woman should be fighting now, you should stop resisting her will, or you will only burden her."

Peony was silent for a while, but finally nodded.

Yue Lian has never felt that time is so difficult.

The light coming in through the window paper became thinner and thinner, and they lit the lamps in the palace one by one, and the candles lit up one by one, making the palace as bright as day, but their hearts were sinking into the palace bit by bit. dark.

It's been a day...

Yao did not come back.

Yue Lian finally couldn't bear it, and pushed open the window.She knew that if she opened the door, the order left by Yao would definitely make Mudan stop her, so she could only open the window.

A round of bright moon hangs high outside the window, and the soft moonlight breaks in through the window, suppressing the brilliance of the lights a little.Plenty of tiny fluorescent lights scattered and floated in mid-air, like planetesimals on the ground.The fluorescence eventually spiraled up into the night sky until it gradually dissipated.

A little bit of fluorescent light floated in, Yue Lian stretched out her hand, and the moment the fluorescent light touched her fingertips, it disappeared.Yuelian thought of Grandma Dageng.It was the same when she died.

Yue Lian didn't dare to think about how many people were dying outside this door; she also didn't dare to think about whether Yao had turned into these fluorescent lights.She just stared at the scene outside the window.

Even after many years, Yue Lian still remembers the night of this night.It's so beautiful that it's suffocating, it's so beautiful that it makes you want to cry.

When the morning glow dyed the sky red, the door of the palace was suddenly pushed open!Mudan and Yuelian were taken aback, but saw a figure covered in blood lying on the threshold.

Peony ran over first, and the moment she saw the figure clearly, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Lord Yao!"

Yue Lian hurried over and worked with Mu Dan to put Yao on the bed in the inner hall.

Yao's green clothes were stained bright red by the blood, and were already torn to pieces.His hair was disheveled, his face was pale, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.The sharp edge of the long sword has become mottled, but it is still held tightly in the hand.

When Mudan tried to replace Yao's bloody clothes, she found that there was almost no intact part on her body, whip marks, knife marks, sword wounds... the only thing that was the same was blood.

Suddenly, Yao clasped Mudan's hand, her eyes brightened.

"Don't waste your energy." Yao's voice was very calm, "I'm dying."

"What frustrating words are you talking about, woman!" Yue Lian's voice choked with sobs that she couldn't detect.

Yao glanced at Yue Lian lightly, and clasped Peony's hand more and more forcefully, "Listen, I've already cleaned up those who hunted and killed spiritual things, and the rest will not do anything to you. But, I die After that, you should leave here."

"No." Peony's eyes glistened, "You will not die. I will not leave either."

"Why bother?" Yao's voice lowered a little, "I went to the top of the White Pagoda after it was built, but I only saw a higher sky. Above the nine heavens, it's still the nine heavens. But below the nine heavens, it's the world..."

"Human world..." Yao's eyes gradually faded, and her voice was so soft that she could hardly hear her, "Biluo is dead...but the world is still alive...that is a good place. Where should I go..."

"You won't die!" Mudan held Yao's hand back, her expression full of determination.

"Peony..." Yue Lian suddenly realized something, stared at Peony in a daze, her lips trembled, and she couldn't say what to say next.

"Leave first...you can go anywhere, don't stay here." Peony lowered her head, the shadow of her broken hair covered her expression.

"Peony!" Yue Lian's chest heaved violently a few times, and she rushed forward, trying to break Peony's hand.

But Mudan's weak body erupted with unimaginable strength from Yuelian, and on the contrary, she pushed Yuelian down hard.

"Peony..." Yue Lian got up, her tears flowed disobediently, "Let's go to the world. Yao told you to go to the world...don't..."

Peony still lowered her head, holding Yao's hand more and more tightly, "Do you want me to beg you?"

"……peony."

Peony suddenly raised her head, tears streaming down her eyes, "I beg you! Go away! Don't stay here!"

Yue Lian couldn't say anything, she could only step back step by step.She desperately opened her eyes wide, trying to remember what Peony looked like.She knew that Peony would definitely use all her strength to save Yao... Whether she could save Yao or not, this would be the last time she saw Peony.

But the more she opened her eyes, the more tears blurred her vision, and the more blurred Peony's eyebrows and eyes became.

Leaving Yao's palace, Yue Lian didn't know where else to go, so she could only wander the streets.

The morning light is faint, and the morning glow dyes the sky with magnificent colors, and the sun is brewing in it.

The morning breeze was a bit cold, passing over the high and low eaves, blowing through the rustling clothing, and blowing through the empty streets and alleys.Yue Lian walked quietly, Mosi danced lightly in the wind.

When she turned into a human form, Bi Luo had already begun to decline.She had never seen the bustling scene on the street, but facing this empty and dead scene, Yue Lian still felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.

Yuelian raised her head, and the tall white pagoda came into view.The sunlight just gushed out, coating the pure white tower with a golden glow.The White Tower is still there, but the people in Biluo City are falling apart.

She shed tears.

Yue Lian couldn't tell why she was crying now.

For Yao?

For peony?

For Ienaki-sama?

Or...for everyone here?

For those who want to survive no matter what; for those who will not betray their beliefs no matter what; for the separation of people's hearts; .

Yue Lian walked aimlessly, but found that she unconsciously came to Suzaku Long Street again.There were fiery peach blossoms blooming on both sides of the long street, but the green bricks under his feet were stained with blood that hadn't dried up.

She carefully avoided the bloodstains and walked slowly, but saw the flying silver belt at the corner of the street!

Is there anyone else?

Yue Lian ran across the corner, and saw a person in a silver robe standing there quietly, facing the direction of the White Pagoda, thinking of something.

Probably hearing Yue Lian's footsteps, the man turned his head, his face was as cold as a knife, but his eyes were full of sadness.

The man glanced at Yue Lian lightly, and said, "Spirit...why are you still here?"

Thinking of Qingsu and Tuyuan-kun, Yuelian took a step back unconsciously, but still put on a vicious look, "Then why don't you leave?"

The man sighed softly, "I can't bear to stop the same people from surviving, and I don't want to violate the belief of God, and..." He looked at Yue Lian, and then continued: "I don't want to use other people's lives to prolong my life. Therefore, I can only stay in Biluo. "

After finishing speaking, the man walked towards the direction of the White Tower.

"Wait!" Yue Lian called him, but didn't know what to say, after a while, she just asked, "What's your name?"

The man didn't stop at all, just said: "Maybe I will die tomorrow, what's the point of asking this?"

Yue Lian followed the man with her eyes until the hem of his silver clothes disappeared from sight.
