Sword Three: Rain Painting Scroll

Mo Xi didn't go back to the cave, but went directly to the ice cave on Ziyuan mountain.As the name suggests, the ice cave is full of blood. If there is no shelter from the cold, ordinary people would freeze to death before stepping into the ice cave.The ice cave is surrounded by ice walls, and there is nothing in the cave except for a bed of black ice and a corpse lying on the bed of black ice.

When he came to Xuanbing's bed, Mo Xi sat down on his knees and looked down at his right hand.This hand was white and clean, without even a single scar, but it was this hand, together with another person's hand, that killed the person on the Xuanbing bed.

Lying on the Xuanbing bed was a young man, probably in his early twenties, with long black hair tied neatly and hanging on his chest, wearing a crescent-colored robe and a pair of silver silk soft satin boots.His hands were folded in front of his lower abdomen, and there was a very old jade pendant on his chest, his eyes were closed tightly, and although his complexion was pale, he didn't look like a dead body at all, on the contrary, he seemed to be asleep.

Mo Xi has a clear conscience towards everyone in his life, but he feels guilty towards the person lying on Xuanbing's bed.It was a scar in her heart, good and bad, bad and good, repeated and endless.Mo Xi still remembered that the first time he saw this person was after Shang was destroyed, Zhou Xing rose, and the conferment of gods was completed.

Speaking of it, he is just a pawn used by heaven.In order to make the Conferred God Project proceed perfectly, Yuanshi Tianzun made up a beautiful rhetoric, which made this apprentice who trusted him especially embark on a road that would never turn back.

"I sealed your body here, if your soul still survives in this world, I'm afraid you will hate me very much." 』One mistake of her thought killed this man, and she didn't even save his three souls and seven souls for him.Now, here is just a corpse, his soul has long been scattered between the heaven and the earth, leaving nothing behind.

People in the world only know that he died after he lived to be a hundred years old, but they don't know why he died. The rumors of his death that spread in the world are all deliberately spread by Wu Ji.If Wuji's child is still alive, I'm afraid I can't wait to kill her.After all, she was the one who killed his master back then, and she was the one who made his teacher's wife, who died early, unable to be resurrected.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or fate, but she and Yun Muxue are not the only traversers in this world, besides the two of them, there is another person, and that person is Gu Qing.Gu Qing was originally an ordinary mortal, although she was born with a fairy bone, but at that time she was the youngest daughter of a family surnamed Gu in a remote place.The Gu family is very poor, so poor that her youngest daughter can only live by eating bark every day, because people in that era were particularly patriarchal. Pay attention to.Gu Qing is a person who is optimistic by nature and is good at adapting to various environments. Even after time-traveling, she only thinks about living a good life, and never thinks about other things.Until the age of five, the whole village was robbed by bandits, and the whole village was killed, including Gu Qing's parents and two underage brothers.When she was about to be killed, Jiang Ziya happened to pass by here and rescued her.Because she was born with a fairy bone, she was a good seedling for cultivation, so she worshiped Jiang Ziya and became his first apprentice.

That year, Jiang Ziya was 48 years old.

Gu Qing is a calm and introverted girl, she is very quiet, most of the time, she is quieter than Jiang Ziya.Jiang Ziya has a calm temperament, but he is still more or less active, and occasionally shows his youthful temper.Yang Jian once said that compared with Jiang Ziya, Gu Qing is more like a master.

After entering the immortal sect, one must focus on cultivation.Gu Qing has never been able to do this.She is more like a personal maid who takes care of Jiang Ziya's daily life after worshiping in the fairy gate.Reverend Yuding and Reverend Taiyi would always laugh at Jiang Ziya, for such an apprentice had been made into an old lady by him.

He followed Jiang Ziya since he was a child, and even Gu Qing himself didn't know when he had feelings for this master that he shouldn't have.By the time she found out, that emotion had taken root into a big tree, and it couldn't be pulled out.Gu Qing is different from the people of that era, if she likes it, she likes it, even if this person is her master, she has no hesitation.To Gu Qing, it was just his master, and he had no blood relationship with him, even if he liked it, it didn't matter.

But in that era, it was a crime of disrespect for a disciple to like his master.Gu Qing happened to commit this crime.Falling in love with Jiang Ziya made her suffer a lot, but she is like a stubborn stone, even if she can't, she still has no hesitation, just like a moth to a flame.

Mo Xi also learned about Gu Qing's past later, and saw it in a Dream Remembrance Stone.The dream-recalling stone was carried by Gu Qing since she was a child. It was the only thing her mother Liu gave her when she was born. Gu Qing carried it with her all her life. She didn't even know that the one she carried looked like a jade stone until she died. The pendant is a dream stone that can remember all of a person's life.

This dream-recalling stone is now on Jiang Ziya's body, hanging around his neck.

He raised his hand, stretched it forward, and grabbed it out of thin air. Suddenly, the image of the Dream Remembrance Stone hanging around Jiang Ziya's neck appeared.There are mountains and rivers in the image, and there is also a fisherman wearing a bamboo hat and a coir raincoat sitting by the river, and a girl wearing a dress of a rather dull color.

Although the young girl is wearing a coarse cloth shirt and skirt, she has light eyebrows, apricot eyes and a melon-seeded face, and looks very handsome.This girl is Gu Qing, Gu Qing may not look perfect and gorgeous, but there is a tranquility in her body.At first glance, Mo Xi liked this girl very much, she has a pair of warm eyes.

The image remembers a girl's growth and her unrepentant attachment to a person.There are many people who know Gu Qing, but there are only a few who may be her friends.She was not the kind of character who could make friends all over the world, so there were not many people who could be her friends, and there was one of them that Mo Xi had never thought of.

That man was Di Xin, the last emperor of the Shang Dynasty.

During Gu Qing's most difficult days, Di Xin was protecting her. Mo Xi didn't know what kind of feelings Di Xin had for Gu Qing at that time, but he also understood how Di Xin took Gu Qing to heart.Di Xin died of suicide, just like what is written in history, he wore all his most precious jades on his body, went up to the deer platform alone, and lit the deer platform with a fire.

Gu Qing was with Di Xin before he died.Gu Qing is a very understanding person. Even though she knew about many things from the beginning, she can only watch them happen one after another without being able to do anything about them.That day, she wanted to help Di Xin escape, but was blocked by Jiang Ziya, who knew her well.

The screen flashed, and the image flashed back to the scene before Di Xin's death that day.

Because of Su Daji's spells, Di Xin is still a young man even though he is over fifty years old.Di Xin followed his mother in appearance, and his mother was beautiful, so he was not bad born, extremely handsome.

Di Xin stood in the palace, wearing the clothes that the emperor wore when he was in court as usual. Although the color of the emperor's robe was dark, it was luxurious, and the servants beside him were crying and standing still. wait by.They carried trays one by one, full of luxurious gems and crowns.Gu Qing was wearing the dress only worn by concubines, and put those precious jades on Di Xin one by one. When she picked up the crown, she suddenly realized how heavy it was.

Putting the crown on for him, Di Xin held Gu Qing's hand firmly in his palm.The emperor who was extremely cruel to the world was so gentle in front of Gu Qing that he had never seen before. "Ah Ching."

Gu Qing looked at him, tears fell from her eyes.

"Don't be sad, this is Gu's catastrophe, Gu's sin. Even if you die, Gu is just going to atone for your sins. In the next life, I hope Gu will no longer be the emperor, Daji is not a demon concubine, and you are not a disciple of teaching. We are all just ordinary people."

Gu Qing shook her head, holding Di Xin's hand tightly.

Di Xin smiled at her, and then let go of her hand. At this moment, Gu Qing reached forward, grabbed Di Xin's hand, and said, "I'll take you away, Zi Shou, as long as you say you If you want to live, even if you risk my life, I will save you from this place." Just after she finished speaking, the gate of the palace was pushed open, and the young man named Jiang Ziya was standing in front of the palace. At the gate, Di Xin and Gu Qing stared coldly at the palace with their hands tightly clasped.

After all, Gu Qing failed to save Di Xin, but Di Xin's death really crushed Gu Qing.

The picture flashed again, and Gu Qing came to the burial place of Emperor Xin in filial piety. His tomb and the three tombs of his queen and concubine were arranged in a north-south manner.How sad is the tomb of a generation of emperors.No one will come to this place, and no one will keep vigil for this extremely tyrannical emperor to the world.The only person who will come here is Gu Qing.Before time travel, Gu Qing had a very bad impression of Di Xin. When she was studying history, she felt that even if an emperor like Di Xin died, no one would feel sad for him.And when Gu Qing really became a witness of this period of history, he deeply understood that history is nothing more than a lie written by the victors.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This has always been the case.

The picture in the video is like a revolving lantern, occasionally stopping, occasionally flashing quickly, the life of the girl named Gu Qing is presented to Mo Xi little by little in this Dream Remembrance Stone.On the night of Emperor Xin's death, Gu Qing was trapped in the palace and waited in agony.In the early morning of the second day, when the sun rose and Gu Qing ran out of the palace to the Lutai, she only found one of Di Xin's finger bones and the melted crown among a pile of charred ruins. .

When Daji appeared, Gu Qing asked her a word.

"You love him so much, why do you let him go to a dead end? You can obviously help him change and make him a master loved by everyone."

Daji replied: "Concubine Qing, do you believe in fate? I do. I, you, and everything in this world are just pawns that follow the way of heaven. I have struggled and tried, but I can't do anything. Therefore, I have seen it through, I can only follow this day, and follow their predestined fate."

Holding the phalanx and the burnt crown, Gu Qing squatted among the charred deer platform and cried loudly until Jiang Ziya knocked her out and let Wu Ji take her away.

Gu Qing died after conferring the gods, and when Jiang Ziya conferred the gods for everyone, she was imprisoned in the snow cave in Kunlun Mountain, where only disciples who committed crimes were imprisoned.For the people of Kunlun Mountain, Gu Qing was the most serious offender among the disciples of Kunlun Mountain, but he was locked in the snow cave for Jiang Ziya's sake.

But at that time, Gu Qing was already a mortal because her fairy bone had been scrapped. After the scrapping of the fairy bone, Gu Qing had been in poor health. That's why Di Xin took her back to the palace, and even announced to the world to make her a concubine. reason.Because she needs the best care in order to take good care of her damaged body.

She died in Wu Ji's arms. The last sentence before her death was just two words.

When Jiang Ziya found out, the Conferred God had already ended, and he didn't even see Gu Qing for the last time.This person, when Gu Qing was alive, for the sake of human relations, for the sake of the overall situation, for the so-called common people in the world, for the sake of human relations, even if he had Gu Qing in his heart, he pretended that he had never done it, and hurt Gu Qing completely.It wasn't until after Gu Qing's death that he realized that the world without Gu Qing was meaningless to him.

Mo Xi quietly watched Jiang Ziya holding Gu Qing's body in the video and leaving the snow cave and Kunlun step by step.What is despair, what is sadness, at that moment, it is fully reflected in Jiang Ziya's body.Those emotions, Mo Xi before time travel may not understand, but Mo Xi after time travel has forgotten these emotions, even if she accidentally killed Jiang Ziya, even with this dream memory stone, she still did not pick it up The emotion she had forgotten was just a little bit more that she didn't even know if it was an emotion.

Outside the ice cave, Wan Lu was biting her well-groomed nails, and said unkindly, "Why did my sister take in that mortal kid?"

E Qiang said: "Perhaps I think that child looks a bit like him..."

Putting down her finger, Wan Lu asked with a sneer, "Like him? How do you think that dead brat looks like that old bastard Jiang Ziya? Face? Temperament? Or something else?"

E Qiang looked up at the sky and murmured: "Second Sister, a thousand years have passed, Eldest Sister is gone, Your Majesty is gone, Jiang Ziya is gone, Concubine Qing is gone, no matter how much you hate, those people from the past are gone... ...I hate it, they can't come back..."

Wan Lu knew, of course she knew, but even if she knew it very well in her heart, she still couldn't help complaining and hating.They are thinking about it, and they are doing things for the sky with trembling, what will be the end result in the end?If it weren't for Moxi, if it wasn't for the pleading of the eldest sister back then, and if it wasn't for Gu Qing's help, she and E Qiang would have become like their eldest sister, dead souls under Jiang Ziya's sword.

"Lu'er, go to Canniang's and prepare some wine, I'm afraid my sister won't be out of the ice cave these two days."

"……Ai."
