I had a very long dream at dawn, a dream I had since I was a child. It seemed like I was reborn. To be precise, I was replaying the first half of my life all over again, but not from my own perspective, but from the perspective of a bystander. .
He saw himself as a baby, saw himself babbling, and saw his parents: his dull and taciturn father and his kind and kind mother. They loved him so much, and their doting eyes made it seem like he was them. of the whole world.
He always thought that he could not remember his parents' appearance, but finally he realized that they had always been hidden in his mind and deep in his softest heart.
He saw his childhood playmates and the old scalper who brought him beautiful childhood memories. Many vague or even completely unrememberable memories became extremely clear.
Their parents died of illness and left this world within a short period of time. What they were most reluctant to leave was their only son. Fortunately, they still had someone in the world who was worthy of their care.
He saw his uncle burying his parents in tears and treated him as his own. Not only did he ask someone to teach him how to read, but he also ate two meals a day first. He also treated his two children, who were his cousins, , could only eat the leftovers. Finally, the uncle had no choice but to kill the old scalper.
For the uncle, Li Xiao no longer has any resentment, but is replaced by guilt. Some experiences are really confusing to the authorities, but clear to the onlookers. I wonder if the uncle’s family is still there? If I had the opportunity to return to my hometown, I would like to repay him.
Although his experience after leaving his hometown was rough, there was nothing worth remembering. The only meaningful thing was that he learned how to survive independently.
It wasn't until he saw Wuxie in the dream, the misunderstanding when the two met for the first time, the heartbeat when they saw each other again, the holding of hands when they met for the third time, and the separation of life and death when they met for the fourth time that he felt that this dream was so beautiful.
If he could, he would live in the dream, keep repeating it, keep seeing his parents who loved him, and the girl he would remember for the rest of his life...
Three thousand dreams, one day I wake up.
He finally woke up at dawn, and the last scene he saw in his dream was that of Wu Xie and Jian merging together in the light of the sun, looking back with a bright smile...
"Innocent!" He shouted, opened his eyes, and what he saw was a charming jade face, with carved beams and painted roofs, and a faint fragrance surging all around. He had returned to the wing where he originally lived.
"What an infatuated person, he actually fell in love with a marauding girl..." Lin Qing'er looked at him with complicated eyes, and there was a hint of sourness in her tone.
Li Xiao was angry when he thought about what she did to him in Jilui, and said coldly: "Wuxie is not a princess, but a goddess descending to earth."
Lin Qing'er curled her lips: "It's just a main soul. It's a pity that I will make the same mistake again. I would rather sacrifice myself to save your life."
At dawn, my heart moved, and the scene in the dream was still vivid in my mind. It seemed that Xiao Niangpi had only seen the first half of her life through the soul-stripping formation, and only understood the superficial aspects of her own thoughts. She had not been exposed to the deeper thoughts, and had not discovered the infinite. The memory illusion that Xie left in her mind, and her heavenly daughter Yinuo.
I don't know if it was Wu Xie who set up a restriction or if he was trying to strip away the limitations of the Soul Formation.
In other words, Lin Qing'er only knew the emotional changes of her four encounters with Wu Xie, but she did not know that she had understood Wu Xie's past and present lives, and had been given a magical ability to live for a long time.
Originally, when looking at mortals, immortal cultivators can completely see through the appearance to see the essence. However, Wuxie is an existence that transcends immortal cultivators. How could the secret she left to Dawn be seen through by immortal cultivators? Even if the first of the three elements comes, it won't work, even if it's searching for souls, it won't work!
With this in mind, Li Xiao thought about it carefully and confirmed that Lin Qing'er did not realize that she had heard the conversation between the three leaders at the well, and thus learned some secret plans, including the Soul Stripping Formation.
Can he take advantage of the situation and seek justice for himself and Wu Xie?
A human catastrophe seems inevitable, but what about those who foresee it in advance?
At dawn, he deliberately asked: "Didn't you say that I had an affair with a monster? Come on, give me a good time!"
Lin Qing'er looked confused: "Shouldn't you cherish the life after death more? Why are you pretending?"
Li Xiao was shocked. Even if the little girl's skin didn't penetrate her heart, she was still the person who understood him best in the world. After all, he had lived the first half of his life completely in front of her eyes.
He then looked sad: "Wuxie is dead, what's the point of living alone?"
Lin Qing'er's pair of watery starry eyes fell on his face, and she said softly: "If there is knowledge under the innocent spring, I hope you live well, right?"
"Really?" Li Xiao's eyes lit up, as if he suddenly had hope, but he was secretly frightened that the little girl had guessed Wu Xie's intentions.
Lin Qing'er's face straightened: "At dawn, after careful investigation by the ghost society, it was found that you were only used by the female master spirit and did not really work for the tiger. Therefore, you are restored to your status as a winner and can participate in the annual competition. Due to the delay, In five months, as compensation, I will take you out to practice again to prepare for the New Year Competition..."
"What, five months?" Li Xiao opened his eyes in surprise. This time he wasn't pretending. He didn't know how old he was in the dream, but it was nearly half a year old.
"Yeah, yeah, this is a serious matter. I have detained you for so long before we can find out the truth. You have to recover quickly, otherwise the Nianlui will be very difficult." Lin Qing'er said with some regret. What she regretted was not the state of Li Xiaoxiao. But after he went through the soul stripping formation, his cultivation foundation was damaged and he could no longer improve in Qi refining unless he got a great opportunity...
Li Xiao naturally knew that he had been set up, and the road to becoming stronger was even more bumpy, but so what? As long as I live, I can always seek justice for myself and Wu Xie!
He pretended to be urgent: "Then when shall we set off?"
Lin Qing'er saw that he had just lost love, and in the blink of an eye she was full of desire for life. The young man's temperament has always been so out of control, which is normal. She thought for a while and said: "Then let's get the young master's robe tomorrow morning. Xiao Qing, go and get the young master's robe." Come."
Hearing Lin Qing'er's command, she was shocked to realize that she had been lying naked on the small bed. She hurriedly sat up and protected her vital parts, her face turned red: "How can you be so rude?"
Unexpectedly, the little girl burst into laughter and her eyes moved: "I haven't seen you before? I've known you since I was a kid..."
When she said the last sentence, she knew she had made a mistake, and then she glanced at the dawn below, intentionally or unintentionally, and it made things right, but her face was red and she was very shy. How could she have the sophistication of an oiran lady who has seen countless people?
shameless! Li Xiao cursed in her heart, knowing very well what Xiao Niangpi really meant. She had seen the first half of his life, and it could be said that she had watched him grow up. Is there any part of his body that she had not seen?
At the dawn of the day, Xiaoqing put on his robe and truly enjoyed the treatment of a young master. After taking another Bigu Pill, Xiaoqing stood down, sat upright on the small bed, and began to breathe.
I originally thought that sitting in the soul-stripping formation for nearly half a year would damage the foundation of cultivation and affect the refining of Qi. However, it was just a little stagnant at the beginning, but after a few breaths it became smoother, and soon it became a week with one breath.
He held his breath for half an hour before finishing the exercise. He seemed to have not retreated, which was a bit gratifying.
The interaction between heaven and earth at dawn continued, and the spiritual energy in the body dissipated outward, like a big bubble, and soon covered the surrounding area of more than ten steps. Under the internal and external interaction, the heavenly eye passed through the wall and saw Lin Qing'er's bedroom next door. Partly, now there is no need to use the bronze mirror to peek.
It is conceivable that as his Qi refining progresses, the area covered by the Sky Eye will become wider and wider, but it cannot spy on Wuji, and even Hu Buwei's restaurants are prohibited.
But how come there are no restrictions on the little girl’s bedroom? Could it be that she wanted to see through it on purpose?
When I was thinking about it at dawn, I heard a movement outside the door. I looked through my eyes and saw a young maid in green clothes walking over with a bowl of soup. I quickly looked away.
Xiao Qing walked in: "Sir, it's time to drink medicine. This is the Shiquan Dabu Decoction prepared specially for you by the drug store."
"Oh?" Li Xiao raised his eyebrows, took the soup and drank it in one gulp, then looked at Xiaoqing, "I've been bored for half a year and want to go out for a walk."
Xiao Qing pursed her lips and smiled: "Young master, just don't go out of the ghost market street. Do you want my maid to accompany you?"
"No, I like to be alone." Li Xiao remained calm, covered herself with a scarf, got off the small bed unhurriedly, left the wing, and left Lan Kwai Fong.
There is a night market on the street, the lights are bright, people are coming and going, and it is bustling. It seems like yesterday, but there are some changes. Pedestrians are wearing thick cotton robes, but most of them no longer cover their faces.
Now that winter has entered, and the plague is prone to spring, there is little wind and sand in the ghost market streets, and people can finally show their faces.
However, a few people still insisted on covering their faces, so the dawn was not unexpected.
He went straight to the restaurant, asked for a box, and showed his face. The waiter's eyes widened immediately. Five months ago in the summer competition, he defeated the monster at dawn and was immediately detained, but it did not affect his becoming an inspirational legend among the people. , making a comeback today, the suspicion has been cleared.
"It turns out to be Bro Xiaoxiao! What do you want to eat?" The waiter turned around and became very enthusiastic.
Li Xiao smiled slightly, and this time he only ordered four items: Yangzhou fried rice, steamed lion's head, crab powder tofu, and boiled dried shreds, so there was no more waste.
Not long after, the food was served, and Dawn moved her chopsticks slowly, savoring the fireworks in the world.
The door suddenly opened, and a masked man walked in. Li Xiao was not surprised. He put down his chopsticks and bowed his hands respectfully: "Your Excellency is here."
The person sat across the table, took off the scarf, and revealed a dull wooden mask. Who is the leader of the medicine line?
It turns out that Shiquan Dabu Decoction is the secret communication code agreed between Yao Xingshang and Li Xiao, and the meeting place is set at Hu Buwei's territory. As a cover, this is called darkness under the lamp.
Of course, Yao Xingshou must have done some tricks before he dared to meet Li Xiao with confidence.
"The boy is recovering well, do you know why I'm looking for you?" The medicine shop got straight to the point.
Dawn remained humble: "Sir, please speak."
"Breaking Dawn, do you know that you have been detained by the secret method for several months, which has damaged the foundation of your cultivation, and it will be even more difficult to advance in the future." Yao Xingshou suddenly said something shocking.
