Ye Yuejun wanted to heal the injured Hongyan, so Shi Wuqi, Miss Qi, Mo Liang and Xi Yu rushed back, while the master and apprentice accompanied Mu Wan to find Long Miao. It's easy to say, that feather has drifted away to nowhere. Even if it is still here, it is not known whether it was burned by Yu'e or crushed in the soil by Tengu Rui.
They were eager to save people, but no one remembered that the incense burner was still in the old lady's house. However, no one expected that something so dangerous and time-consuming would happen at such a far distance. The sun was setting in the west, and the sky was as red as blood. The four of them ran back, and Mo Liang suddenly fell down. Xi Yu helped him up and asked her if she was injured. If she was hurt, she would tell him.
"...I'm fine." He just said that--he always said that.
"Don't be brave, kid. It's more troublesome if you hold it back and don't say anything." Shi Wuqi squatted down, "What's wrong?"
"I feel weak." Mo Liang just said, "Maybe I worked too hard just now."
"We were supposed to help you get rid of the curse. What happened to you? Isn't it contrary to the purpose?"
Shi Wuqi touched his head and felt a little hot, but it was hard to tell whether it was from the sun. Xi Yu went to hold his hand and said:
"He must have suffered from heatstroke. His temperature is usually very low... Oops! Why are you -"
Before she could say anything, Shi Wuqi grabbed Mo Liang's hidden hand. His hand was very hot, and there was a sharp white bone spur on the back of his hand. Wu Qi frowned and looked at him with a bad look on his face.
"Can I touch it?"
"……good."
He thought for a while and finally agreed. After all, he also knew that refusing would be useless.
Shi Wuqi stretched out his hand, but didn't touch it for a long time. A strange feeling emerged in his heart, a kind of prediction, a kind of suggestion. The more intense his uneasiness became, the more he wanted to understand it all.
As if trying to hold repulsive magnets together, Shi Wuqi suddenly stretched out his hand and put two fingers on the side of the bone spur.
Shi Wuqi suddenly flicked his hand away from Mo Liang's as if his whole body was electrified. Just for a moment, a lot of sweat broke out on his forehead, his lips trembled slightly, and his face turned pale. Expressions such as fear, anger, and extreme shock were rare to see on Shi Wuqi's face. There was even some bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and there was a buzzing in his head, as if he had come back from an environment in another world, with the confusion of waking up from a dream, or the joy of drowning on the shore, similar to the disaster. Emotions like the rest of his life surged in his heart. He felt his teeth chattering, but not just from fear.
"What, what's wrong?"
Mo Liang was a little scared. It wasn't that he was worried about himself, but Shi Wuqi's reaction really didn't seem like he was fine.
"Nothing," he blurted.
Even a fool would find it suspicious to say that he was fine. No matter how much Xi Yu pestered him, he didn't say a word.
How should he tell them that what he just saw was the tragic death of the Mo family from ancient times to the present?
From ancient times to the present, all.
Hundreds of faces flashed before his eyes one after another, seemingly at the same time. Not only that, everyone's pain, thoughts and memories when they died were also projected on Shi Wuqi's body. The huge flow of information was like a tsunami and thunder, causing him to lose control of his body in that brief moment, and he almost forgot who he was.
That was really too miserable.
It's not that Shi Wuqi has never seen a family murder case, there was more than one. But he swore he had encountered this situation for the first time. Death, a large number of deaths, countless, makes the Hundred Skeleton Master feel numb. The probability is one in ten thousand, or one in a million - they will all happen to the Mo family. Fighting, disease, accidents, suicide, and countless bizarre ways of death are mixed in.
He always felt that there was something else mixed in.
Are all their surnames Mo?
There were too many people, and he couldn't make a correct judgment in just a moment. He couldn't tell the two children, so he swallowed it all and pretended that nothing happened.
"Wait!" Wu Qi suddenly noticed something strange, "Give me your sword!"
Mo Liang saw that he couldn't hide it, but he didn't want to give him the knife. So Shi Wuqi once again grabbed Gui Tan. He held the sword horizontally in his hand and stared at the bone that had grown out of nowhere.
Is the sword shorter than before? He didn't think so.
"What, what should I do? When did this happen? How can I explain to my aunt and the master that I can't protect you...Will you die? You don't want to die..."
The dejected words made people even more heartbroken. Shi Wuqi's hand holding the sword relaxed slightly and tightened it again. He wished he could crush this damn sword, break all the messy curses, and then send them back to Xueyan Valley, where he could refine the soul-returning incense in peace and contentment. But it was impossible. He knew that he could not destroy the sword. Even if it was destroyed, Mo Liang might die.
"You can't overdraw your life anymore." Shi Wuqi said sincerely, "You are still very young."
Mo Liang said honestly: "I didn't think too much. I know Liangqiu is a good person. A good person shouldn't die, let alone be killed by his shikigami. Chi Li likes her, the whole sect likes her, and I like her too, I can't stand to see something happen to her and her shikigami."
Shi Wuqi didn't know what to say. To be honest, he is not so "thorough" and not so "noble". He knew very well that the extreme measure he was planning to take at that time was to directly kill the out-of-control Tengu. Of course, he wouldn't do it unless he had to, but Mo Liang got there first. Naturally, he quickly simulated what would happen after that in his mind, but the conclusion was that it was not important, as long as a person was alive, emotions such as gratitude or resentment were secondary. Everyone is dead, where can there be so much joy, anger, sorrow, and seven emotions and six desires?
Until now, he doesn't feel that what he did was wrong. However, Mo Liang took the lead in drawing the sword, which led to another bad consequence, which was not what he wanted to see. But there was no way, he knew that the responsibility was not actually on him.
This did not prevent him from feeling unspeakable grief.
"Almost every bone is proof that you have sacrificed your life for others." He said, "You can only live for yourself in the future - because you are not far from death. You can occasionally do something for yourself. "
"...Maybe you are right. This time, it seems to be growing faster than before." Mo Liang's voice was very soft, but very powerful, "But whatever I do is my own choice, and it is all for my own sake. I live. If I didn’t have them in my life, without you, I don’t know if I could survive until now.”
"You're going to die. If you die you won't be able to see all of us."
"Let's put it this way... Would you rather be a mayfly on the water, watching the middle of summer for a day, living and dying, or would you rather live forever in a pool of stagnant water, alone and in the dark, until the sea withers away and the rocks rot?"
Shi Wuqi was speechless. For the first time, he felt that he could not speak to a child.
"Well, since you are willing to choose this way, it doesn't matter." He lamented, "I believe you won't regret it."
"No!" Xi Yu listened for a long time, tasting something wrong, "Why does it sound like you are going to die? Can you not die, can you live well? We don't want you to worry about anything..."
"I want to ask you to help me with something." He said sincerely, ignoring Xi Yu's nonsense for the time being.
"What is it?"
"Don't tell Mr. Ye Yue...yet. And Liang Qiu."
"You can't hide it." Shi Wuqi said, "They are neither blind nor stupid. If you don't tell them, do you think they can't see?"
He still remembered that the moment Mo Liang raised his sword, the light directly overflowed from the wrapped cloth strips and melted them all. Now that the third bone has appeared, it is even harder to hide it with cloth.
"It can be hidden for a while. It's not that I don't intend to let them know, I just want them to be sad later..."
"But they will still be sad in the end."
"It's the only thing I can do... They've done enough for me."
The sun had completely set, leaving only a glimmer of light struggling in the western sky. The sunset is beautiful today, and the weather will be good tomorrow.
Shanhai and the others found Long Miao before it got dark. They could have met earlier, but Long Miao felt wrong because he waited too long and couldn't contact Mu Wan. He turned back to look for her, but happened to miss them. Fortunately, several people finally encountered it, because two roving swan geese suddenly showed them the way.
"You're okay! That's great, I thought..."
Mu Wan took two steps forward. Shanhai pulled her and looked her up and down to confirm that Long Miao was indeed him. There is not much difference between him and when he left, but he has tidied up a little more decently.
"You left without saying goodbye that day." Shan Hai said quietly, "Now you suddenly contacted Mu Wan."
Dai Luan said unceremoniously: "Let her come alone, which will inevitably make people feel suspicious."
Long Miao was really innocent, and he felt that there was some misunderstanding. What's more, judging from their state, they are indeed in some kind of trouble. His keen sense of smell allowed him to smell a familiar, sweet smell from these three people, which made him a little suspicious.
"I also heard what others said...you should tell them."
"If they hadn't come to save me, I would have been killed by the butterfly spirit."
"Butterfly spirit?" Long Miao frowned.
"What, you know him?"
"...I didn't think carefully. I had no other choice at the time and didn't know who to believe. If you said that, I knew that the monster had other agendas. She was the one who told me that Mo Liang had been controlled by Gui Tan. Let me remind you to be careful.”
Under the moonlight, his quiet eyes shone with light.
"I think... Mo Liang is normal." Mu Wan said, "He saved me. If he could kill, he would have taken advantage of that opportunity to kill us all. She obeys Lord Xuyue, don't want to sow discord. .”
"I went to look for you very early. But the woods over there seemed to be under some kind of spell, covering up all the breath and disturbing the original road. If Yu'e wants to kill you... I'm afraid it's their fault. .”
Long Miao took a deep breath, and the warm air filled her chest.
"I'm sorry for you." He spoke again.
"If you are really sorry, you have to go back with us." Shanhai negotiated with him, "We are in trouble."
