Han Ziyue said: "What is life?"
"Life is a process of constant reunions and farewells, and of saying goodbye to one beautiful memory after another..."
Unexpectedly, Lan Zuiwu, who seemed to have no brains, would have such a profound understanding. Han Ziyue suddenly felt that she had grown up and was a person who should not be underestimated.
Han Ziyue smiled, lay on the grass, pillowed her head with her hands, and said with emotion: "Yes! I really don't know what will happen in the future? Will we have the chance to be together again, lying on the grass comfortably like today? Go chat.”
Lan Zuiwu pulled out a piece of dogtail grass, put it on Han Ziyue's face and scratched it gently, smiled and said: "I wanted to sleep with my aunt tonight, but as Her Majesty the Queen, she will always be the same as before. It’s different, why don’t we sleep together tonight, I have a lot of things I want to tell you!”
Han Ziyue smiled evilly and said, "Shouldn't you tell Mu Bai?"
Lan Zuiwu blushed at what she said, gritted her teeth, and whispered: "Han Ziyue, you bad girl! How can you speak?"
Ye Zhenfeng and Chu Mubai rested their arms on the grass, raised their wine jars to touch each other, and then drank with a smile.
Ye Zhenfeng said: "Mu Bai, since you have had this adventure and received the guidance of the Sword King, it seems that your Evil King's Divine Sword has been perfected. Why don't we two brothers find a chance to compare notes sometime?"
Chu Mubai nodded and said: "I thought so too. By the way, Fu Heng's matter has been almost settled now. Tomorrow he and Sufeng will return to Hengwu Kingdom. Her Majesty the Queen will also return to Blue Soul City. What are you going to do next?"
Ye Zhenfeng said: "I don't know either. Let's continue wandering around the world with Ziyue, help her collect the fragments of the Soul of the Ten Gods, and then find a way to help her pull out the demon in her heart."
Seeing his expression darken, Chu Mubai said: "Is there really no way to solve the inner demon?"
Ye Zhenfeng took a deep breath and said: "Master once asked the Moon Worshiping Demon Lord. She said that if you want to pull out the inner demon and kill it, drinking the water of Wangchuan might be possible. But if you drink the water of Wangchuan, people will Forget the past. Ziyue said that even if there is water from the River of Forgetfulness, she doesn’t want to drink it, because she doesn’t want to forget me or who she is..."
Chu Mubai raised the wine jar, took a sip of wine, and said: "We are all mortals, and we cannot escape all kinds of sufferings. Let alone humans, gods have to go through various heavenly tribulations before they can achieve the great road. Although everyone's Sufferings vary from person to person, but as long as you believe that God has a perfect path for everyone, there will definitely be a way to go!"
Ye Zhenfeng nodded, raised the wine jar and touched it lightly, saying: "You are right, drink!"
The two drank to drown their sorrows, and as they drank happily, the stars shone on them, and the night seemed to last forever.
Even though the night is deep, Lan Yu, as the empress, still has no leisure. She will leave for Lanhun City tomorrow. During her absence, she has piled up a lot of memorials to be approved.
Mosquitoes on summer nights burrowed into the tent looking for a bit of light, and swarmed around the glass lampshade, making crackling sounds.
She put down the memorial in her hand and walked slowly outside the king's tent. On the grassy slope in the distance, Lan Zuiwu and others were talking and laughing around a bonfire.
For some reason, she seemed to see the shadow of her youth in them, and she couldn't help but think of Leng Qingxiao again.
She also used to lean on his shoulder, keep warm around the campfire with him, blowing the wind in the wilderness, and raise her head together
Looking at the bright stars in the sky... everything seems to have happened just now, but time has passed, she is the Queen of Blue Soul, and he has passed away forever.
She took a deep breath and reached out to hug her arms. She didn't know whether it was because the night was as cold as water, or because she felt chilly, but she only felt a little cold all over her body.
Qi Hongxue behind her gently put a black cloak on her. The splendid cloak was as gentle as water, but it gradually made people feel warm when it was draped on her body.
"Your Majesty the Queen, although it is a summer night, the wind in the wilderness is cold, so we should go back to the king's tent." Qi Hongxue said softly.
Lan Yu feels that Qi Hongxue is really a competent manager and is extremely loyal to his master. No wonder his brother Lan Xiao thinks so highly of him.
Not only can he take care of her daily life, but he can also share her affairs. When she doesn't need him, he can turn himself into a piece of silent snow. When she needs him, he will be by her side immediately.
Lan Yuxiao looked back at him and asked with a smile: "Eunuch Hongxue was also a wanderer in the world when he was young?"
Qi Hongxue smiled and said: "The past is like smoke, it's like something from the past life."
Lan Yu sighed: "The rivers and lakes are so free and unrestrained, but the palace is so locked up that there is no end in sight. Is Eunuch Hongxue ever willing to do that?"
Qi Hongxue was startled. Lan Yu was different from Lan Xiao. Lan Xiao had ambition in his heart and wanted to conquer the world. Lan Yu also has the world in her heart, but in addition to the world, she also has poetic and romantic feelings in the world.
Qi Hongxue smiled and said: "Everyone living in the world has things that he cannot accept. A slave cannot do it, and neither can your Majesty. Your Majesty longs for the world, but in the end he wants to become a king. Dreams and reality are often not on the same road. . These are not things we can change just because we are unwilling to do so, right?"
Lan Yu nodded, her black cloak fluttering gently in the wind. She looked at him with clear eyes and said, "How did Eunuch Hongxue do it?"
In fact, Qi Hongxue has followed Lan Yu for these years and knows that she is not happy. She is not willing to be locked up in the palace. She yearns for a free life in the world. It's like a canary that does its duty, trapped in a golden birdcage, looking into the distance.
Qi Hongxue said: "This slave will choose to forget and forget those false obsessions that should not be had."
Lan Yu understood what he meant and turned to look into the distance. The last thing she could learn in her life was to forget, otherwise she wouldn't be thinking that she couldn't get out alone.
Lan Yu looked at Lan Zuiwu and others in the distance, smiled slightly, and said with envy: "Look, these people are young and arrogant. They are in their good years, how wonderful!"
Qi Hongxue looked at Lan Yu's envious gaze looking into the distance, smiled slightly, and said: "Yes, youthful arrogance only belongs to young people, but Her Majesty the Queen is different. You are the one who controls the world and overlooks the common people, so you are naturally different from that. "
Lan Yu smiled, grabbed the cloak wrapped around her body with both hands, turned to look at him, and said: "Yes, Her Majesty the Queen should do what Her Majesty the Queen should do. There is no need to envy those young people. After all, I was also young. However, I have had all those beautiful moments and youthful and frivolous moments."
Qi Hongxue stood silently behind her and walked into the king's tent with her. He came to the table and said: "This slave will grind it for Your Majesty!"
Lan Yu nodded, then picked up her pen and continued to correct her memorial.
Qi Hongxue picked up a small golden spoon, scooped a spoonful of water from the lotus cup, poured the water on the inkstone, and then began to slowly
After grinding the ink, the fragrance of the ink soon overflowed.
Seeing the candlelight shining on her thin figure, Qi Hongxue, who was standing beside her and grinding, felt pity. He knew that she was thinking about someone she couldn't forget, and she was nostalgic for that sweet dream in the past. He wanted to tell her that it was just a dream, a meaningless obsession.
But these words are something he is not qualified to say as a slave, and perhaps he will never be qualified to say them in his lifetime. Therefore, he could only try his best to be by his master's side, not to let her have no one to accompany her when she felt cold, and not to let her not see him when she looked back.
Bidige
The candlelight flickers and the summer night is long. Everyone has their own concerns and thoughts.
Early the next morning.
At first light, the two teams will set off on their own journeys.
Fu Heng invited them to stay in Hengwu Country for a while, but Ye Zhenfeng felt that the civil strife in Hengwu Country had just calmed down and there were still many things waiting for him to deal with, so he didn't bother them.
After seeing off Fu Heng and Su Feng, the Blue Soul Capital team had gathered and prepared to set off. Lan Yu also invited them to stay with them back to Blue Soul Capital, but the group politely declined.
The four of them discussed it and decided to go together and travel around.
… …
Corpses were everywhere in the corpse city, and bones piled up like mountains. The corpses hanging on tree trunks were swayed left and right by the wind.
The carrion on the body was eaten by eagles and crows, and blood dripped down the withered feet to the ground, giving off a disgusting stench.
A corpse tilted its head, with a hole exposed in its skull. Brains mixed with blood flowed out of the hole. The pair of skinny feet swayed back and forth in the wind, which looked very scary.
A pair of white boots from the Dragon Killing Hall stepped over the corpse, and there was only a crisp "click" sound. He directly stepped on a leg bone and then stepped over the pile of bones, with an awe-inspiring light in his eyes. Don't pay attention to what is in front of you at all.
The maid Luo Xue, holding a snow halberd, followed cautiously behind him.
The wind blew Luoxue's long hair, and she felt a chill on the back of her neck. She looked back from time to time, but there was no one there. Except for the two of them, there was no one else in the entire Corpse City.
They circled the entire empty city, and there was nothing but corpses piled everywhere, not even a single wild dog or hungry wolf that was eating the corpses.
The little golden dragon lingered leisurely beside the Dragon-Slaying Palace, and suddenly its red blood pupils glowed.
"Huh?" Dragon Killing Palace also looked in the direction it was looking at, which was the direction of the castle. It seemed that someone was spying on them inside the castle.
Without saying a word, he drew out the Fire Soul Blade and quickly jumped towards the castle.
"Young Master——" Luoxue hurriedly chased after him.
I saw the feet of Shalongdian running quickly on the dark golden city wall. His white clothes swept away, carrying a gust of wind, he jumped up and jumped into the window of the old castle.
When he jumped in, he saw a red figure flashing past the end of the corridor. He hurriedly chased after him, but at the end of the corridor was a dark and damp corridor with no one left.
Killing Dragon Palace looked at the densely packed rooms in the castle with keen eyes. He didn't know whether the guy just now was a human or a ghost, or where he was hiding now.
He stretched out his hand to draw a fire talisman. He held the burning fire talisman between his slender fingers and threw it with his hand. The fire talisman turned into a ball of fire and floated into the darkness.
