Parting is always bitter.
Although it was not the first time she was separated from Ling Huan... it was indeed the first time she was sent away by a friend in person, with just a letter, a letter that Xie Zhe thought about and revised again and again. Of course Wenying had some complaints about their decision, but her rationality made her choose to agree. After that, they will live an even poorer life, but that doesn't matter. By comparison, the days ahead will be quieter and less interesting, but not necessarily easier—it’s sad to think about.
They all tacitly stopped mentioning Ling Huan. Looking back even a little bit at the past, the flood of memories will break through the dam, and everything about her will be reminded of them uncontrollably. If you can only think about it, you can't do anything else. Maybe one day in the future, someone will mention it a little bit as if it doesn't matter, and someone else will follow up with a few words, and everything will become calm. But how long will it take for this day to arrive?
"You think you won't be able to say those heartless words... I think actually having a good talk with her can achieve the goal."
"She is such a suspicious and restless girl, and she will feel that we are trying to hint at her as a burden. Although we are indeed not sure of protecting her, it is also a problem of our own abilities. At least, she has never held us back. .”
"It's really not a burden. But everything is going in a dangerous direction, and we really can't guarantee her safety. No matter what, she can just go back. What you said is so unpleasant... When she gets angry, she probably won't You miss us so much."
"I hope that's the case."
They lay in silence, looking at the dark ceiling, saying no more. The night was very late, but no one fell asleep. No need to think too much, Wenying was resting alone in the next room and her eyes were open. They can't leave yet, they can't leave this place with sad memories. The family members probably knew what they were going through, and they just gave them helpless comfort. In the past two days, Wenying didn't want to go out. When children on the street see her, they will ask, where is the other beautiful sister? She didn't want to answer.
Because Master Lintian hasn’t come to them yet.
But they didn't wait that long. On the third day after Ling Huan left, Master Lintian found their residence. But he didn't come alone, Jiao Mo also met them on the same day as him. After parting ways with Lintian Master last time, Jiao Mo did not go with them. One person arrived in the morning and the other in the afternoon, with only a lunch in between. The two did not discuss it.
Master Lintian wanted to say something, but when he learned that Ling Huan was no longer here, he more or less guessed something.
"When did you know about it?"
"Miss Chenxing came to see us..."
So they told Master Lintian truthfully about the ins and outs of the incident, including the trouble caused by Lord Kouchue and the part where the glass heart turned into a glass sword. Both he and Jiao Mo listened with frowns and said nothing until they explained all the details. Perhaps fortunately, neither of them commented on the fact that they "drove" Ling Quan away. Perhaps they feel that it is difficult to evaluate things that have not happened to them, or perhaps they feel that they will make similar choices.
And Master Lintian also told about the exchange between himself and Shui Wujun.
"In other words, the resentment that was taken away from the evil mouth was snatched away by Lord Xueyue..." Wenying thought, "He also got Duanchenhuan from you, and he also took Fengyun from Xie Che. Kill them. These two weapons, which he should have never touched or tampered with, fell into his hands. But what exactly did he want to do?"
"...Perhaps you still remember the sword spirit of Duan Chenhuan. I once got some information about the Six Paths Divine Weapon from him. But I can't reveal it for the time being. Further verification is needed. However, for now, its function It has nothing to do with the possible purpose of Lord Xueyue. Cutting blood and sealing throat is just a piece of scrap metal now. Even if he has some ability, he may not be able to use it. After all, we used the sword to get into the Death Shadow Pavilion. The key props are nothing.”
Is it really worth it? It’s hard to comment on a few people. Or do they really take the role of the Six Paths Divine Weapons too seriously? Although the weapons still need some opportunities to show their maximum value in their hands, even if he, Lord Kotsutsuki, can use several weapons and swords at the same time, he cannot be like their former master. It's just that they are in him
What's going on there is unknown, and that's what's disturbing.
When they were communicating with each other, Jiao Mo said nothing and only listened quietly, sometimes with a sad look on his face. When Han Chang finally asked her how she found these people, she hesitated and said:
"I just heard you say that Resentful Eclipse should be at Lord Koyue, but... you also said that when fighting that Chenxing girl, there were only three weapons, which did not include Resentful Eclipse. So what exactly is it? Where?"
"Maybe he was given bad words back?" asked Yingying to guess.
"No. Ever since Kanna-kun told me how to trace the source of the disease through the wounds left by the sword, the connection between me and that weapon seems to have been opened. If this ability can be taught to Mr. Xie, it will save a lot of trouble. But In fact, what Kanna-kun did was not to teach, but to give guidance. How to achieve it in the end mainly depends on my own understanding. In this regard... I think it relies on the advantage of my bloodline. I was originally in the depths of the sea. In order to walk on land, one of the ways for living sharks to become human is to cut open the tail of a fish with a bone shuttle made by our closest relatives. After enduring this heartbreaking pain, they will turn into human legs. When I stabbed the tiny wound on my face with the sharp end of the shuttle, I tried to make it heal again and cut off the connection with the knife. Unexpectedly, I deepened my perception of it. And... my perception of other injured people. "
"So, you relied on this to find Xie Zhe again?" Han Chang asked.
"Yes. I am here to meet you again because I want to tell you: I noticed that the knife was getting closer to an injured person. Although the injured person's injury has been healed, I can still feel that he He was seriously injured - perhaps the most serious. I really don't know how he survived. In this case, can it be said that..."
"It's Shuiwu-kun." Lintian Master's tone was almost firm, "But who is the one holding the weapon? I always feel that it is not a bad word. Although he is so childish, there is no reason to continue to target Shuiwu-kun. . With the memory of the great monster Lian Wu, he should be able to weigh such pros and cons."
"Is there a possibility," Wenying said suddenly, "that the person who was planning to attack Shui Wujun was after her Xun? That was the last thing that Yin Huan left to her, and she will keep it for the time being. And after all, the agate is also The magic weapon may indicate someone is up to something evil."
"Although it's not impossible, there are probably very few people who know the news. If you rule it out a little, there won't be many people left."
Facing Master Lintian's explanation, Wenying was a little discouraged. Sitting on the edge of the bed, she slumped backwards on the bed, spread her arms, and seemed to give up thinking.
Xie Zhe sighed and said seriously: "Assuming what Xueyuejun said is true, then we have a method to crack the shadow of Ghost Fairy Girl, but how to use it specifically remains to be explored. But Shuiwujun encountered trouble there , but we don’t know who it is and why. That thing is also an object left by Yin Huan and belongs to Ling Huan. Both things are very important, how should we weigh them?"
"Perhaps the troops will be divided into two groups." Han Chang said, "The matter is now over, we don't have any more time to waste."
"It makes sense." Master Lintian said, "But I'm afraid we have to divide our troops into three groups. We can't find the whereabouts of the villain and the thief for the time being, but I unexpectedly learned the whereabouts of Xie Yan. When the barrier of Death Shadow Pavilion opened , she is not in Qinglize, she might be able to ask something. But it is too dangerous for Mrs. Jiaomo to go looking for Shui Wujun alone, and she needs the help of someone who is good at fighting. It is not appropriate to separate the three of you again, so I will Contact some friends or Liudao Impermanence to ensure the safety of my wife."
"Thank you so much for your consideration. I will definitely find her and pass the news to you. As for the road to Death Shadow Pavilion, it will be up to Mr. Xie and the others to continue exploring."
"We are sincerely grateful to have a noble person like you help us..." Xie Zhe said sincerely.
In this way, they had made a new plan and all that was left was to execute it. Although nothing has settled down, at least everything has a framework, so that people don't feel too unsure. Lin Tianshi and Jiao Mo quickly took action to say goodbye to them. When saying goodbye to the two of them at the entrance of the alley, Wenying turned around and unconsciously glanced at the courtyard door of her residence.
"What?" Han Chang noticed her behavior.
"...Nothing. I just remembered that a big carriage was parked there a few days ago. It was really impressive."
"People from wealthy families
Home. "
But Xie Zhe said nothing. He acted as if he hadn't heard anything and turned around and went back after seeing off the guests, leaving the two fox brothers and sisters standing there. Han Zhang wanted to follow, but Wenying grabbed his wrist. In the dusk, she lowered her voice and said with emotion:
"Why do I feel that he doesn't care about Ling Huan's feelings at all! She has done so much for us. She paid a large share of the food and clothing along the way. In every critical moment, she can turn danger into good luck and die. Escape. I understand your ruthless decision, but how can he be so indifferent? He is always chasing the righteousness of the world, but he doesn't even understand the people around him..."
Han Chang opened his mouth slightly, not knowing how to respond. He wanted to refute, thinking that his sister was wrong, but it wasn't all wrong, and even some parts made sense. But which part and what reason, he couldn't tell. After holding it in for a long time, he just looked at the courtyard door where Xie Zhe disappeared and said stiffly:
"Escape from death is only temporary after all. There are too many near-death situations, and the possibility of survival becomes increasingly slim. It would be the greatest selfishness of us to force her to stay just because we are reluctant. Now she has an elder in the Ye family. The young lady was killed, and they should not have put more family members in danger. As a daughter of a businessman, she should not have had anything to do with monsters like us. She should have returned to her rich world..."
"Can she really go back?"
Facing his sister's rhetorical question, Han Chang could only respond silently. Even though they have been together for such a long time, he is not Ling Huan after all, and he does not know her past life or what she is thinking. It would be an offense to hold anything to grudge or forgive on her behalf without permission. He could only hold Wenying's hand and walk silently back to the place where he said goodbye to his old friend.
