After issuing the order, Xiao Qianqiu was dealing with another important matter. His eyes were lowered, and it was difficult for others to guess his mood from his appearance. From Xue Hualing's perspective, his entire face was almost Hidden in the shadows: "How do you feel now?"
He asked coldly. The little girl not far from him had been released from the suspended state. There was no blood on her face, and there were still some scratches on her hands and feet from the day. Her condition could not be said to be very healthy, but considering After she had two brushes with death before - being thrown onto a rock and almost falling to death, and being snatched away by Xiao Xinglong using magic - her current appearance can be said to be unexpectedly good. .
"So hungry." Hualin replied in an extremely sincere tone. He knew that true immortals are not so easy to deceive, so his words came completely from the heart. Xiao Qianqiu could see the girl's face revealed as if it was illuminated. The desire and joy for food can be imagined that she was savoring the taste of food after a long absence. Seeing this greedy look, he actually smiled: "Now you can only eat porridge."
"Oh," he replied with a long and unhappy tune. Hualin didn't need any kind of disguise... It would be better to say that when he was pretending to be a child at this moment, it was a rare occasion when he didn't need to pretend to express his desires. Moment: “Can I have more?”
"I'm afraid that won't work either." As he spoke, the blue bird had already flown over with a lacquer plate. On the plate was a large sea-patterned tureen. There were two small bowls next to it. One was filled with lemongrass sauce, and the other was filled with lemongrass sauce. There was a silver spoon in the small bowl, and the covered bowl was filled with hot milk porridge. In the center of the porridge was sprinkled a little cinnamon powder for flavoring and warming. Hualin's heart skipped a beat when he saw it. In the dark little pharmacy in Shuanghe, far away. There, the transformed Xiao Ruyun was talking to Yu Gui's grandfather, talking about how he would open a tea shop in Qingzhou City based on his craftsmanship if he could not learn the magic in the future. It seemed like a long time ago, but that desolate and shabby place The shop made him feel far more comfortable than the magnificent Qiyunfeng.
Despite this, he immediately struggled out of that kind of nostalgia. He was a wizard, and a wizard whose soul contract was still in the hands of the devil. He couldn't look back just because he was attached to warmth and comfort. He had to move forward, even if Go to a place where he is even more cruel and inhumane than how Qi Yunfeng and the Xiao family treated him.
"It will take a while for the porridge to cool down," Xiao Qianqiu said, "I happen to be free at the moment - do you still remember what happened that day?"
The True Immortal was so free. Hualin did not say this blasphemous sentence. He knew how to say it. He paused first, and then slowly formed the sentence - the True Immortal was very patient anyway - and he was free: " That day… the net fell apart.”
"net?"
"It's the net that has been blocking the outside of Gumei Yuan," Hualin said. "It doesn't block the servants, nor does it block Ru Shi. It recognizes me just like it recognizes that... thing under the plum tree."
Yes, Xiao Qianqiu nodded in his heart. When he placed Hua Ling there, he added corresponding content to the binding spell. He had doubts about Hua Ling's psychic body before, but now he has There is no doubt that this is indeed a talent given by God! This is not like what ordinary people think. You can just see some "unclean" things, which may harm yourself or something. Being able to see another world means that it is easier to see the essence of the world. Even a true immortal would find it difficult to do this.
This is why he proposed to Xiao Yinyun to use a lot of resources to cultivate Hua Ling. Because with him as a guide, Xiao Yinyun's path to becoming a true immortal went extremely smoothly. Now that he thinks about it, it was a little too smooth, and because she has not yet reached his level. height, so she has not yet experienced the difficulties, confusion and setbacks that he has experienced, the trouble of getting half the result with half the effort, and clumsily running around in circles. She doesn't know how many problems may be solved through the psychic body!
However, no matter how talented God is, they must be controlled by the human heart before they can be used in the world. He was not optimistic about this before - in his life, he has seen too many people like Xiao Ruge waste talents and resources. They are always too easily seduced by a comfortable life, thinking that if they find a master for themselves, they will not have to face any worries, thus abandoning the freedom they may have and turning themselves into complete slaves - without a contract of sale. Without shackles, there is less freedom than those with bonds and shackles. Therefore, he did not give her any more resources and regarded her purely as a tool to produce future generations of the Xiao family.
However, this little girl's heart is different. She does not covet the false mortal fire. Her eyes are always looking at the real fire of the abyss, the source of power. She even swallowed Xiao Xinglong!
He gradually brought the topic to this aspect, and Hualin did not try to muddle through. He tried his best to describe the situation he encountered at that time in detail, and tried to make the language close to the vocabulary that his current body should have: "Many... ...A lot of people... and things, I seemed to be there, watching them happen... and then I wasn't there anymore... and then I watched them happen again..." He knew that even Xiao Xinglong had learned the Five Color Sect's evil spirit in order to fight against the enemy. The number one true immortal of the Xiao family should also have a lot of research on this skill. This aspect cannot be passed by just talking nonsense.
"for example?"
There was a funny but strange expression on the girl's face: "You...you had an argument with my dad over drinking. I thought it was my dad, but I knew it was not my dad. My dad was here." Shuanghe, oops, but..."
Xiao Qianqiu looked at a plum branch lying in front of him. The plum tree blooms in spring, exuding a strong fragrance. The flowers are attached to the branches in an orderly manner. Each branch is as exquisite as a painting and a hairpin. It is the best choice of literati painters. Love, they have written and painted this fleeting beauty, and want to leave the dissipated fragrance in their works forever. In the vast plum forest on Qiyun Peak, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, year after year The branches are full of plum blossoms, and the fragrance lingers: "I understand, that's because you see other people's hearts."
"Other people's hearts?"
"Yes, the little girl with clairvoyance," Xiao Qianqiu said: "You were born extraordinary, and you have been able to see things that others cannot see since you were a child. But you must be careful about things like what you saw this time - because you You may see them again in the future, and they are much more sinister than what you have seen before, because they look more real than anything else, but they are not real. They penetrate into your heart - you have seen Xiao Ru Shi, they transformed into birds and beasts, right? Your heavenly eyes can tell that they are not real birds and beasts, but in the human heart, your heavenly eyes are of little use, because they don't need to look like your father, as long as they make you I thought, 'It's just your father. Being able to see another world doesn't mean you can see into people's hearts, nor does it mean you can see the truth."
"Really?"
"real."
"Then I won't watch it."
"There are some things that you won't see unless you look." Xiao Qianqiu said these words very slowly, as if he was an old man helping his children to identify flowers, birds, fish and insects: "But when you look again, it will be like today. , remember that is actually someone else's father, your own father is still in Shuanghe, so you probably won't be killed, you will still be yourself, the daughter of the Xue family in Shuanghe County, not someone else .”
"Yes." Hualin nodded. He was actually a little surprised that Xiao Qianqiu told "her" the principles of resisting the soul-obsessing spell, but even in his surprise, he did not forget to take the opportunity to inquire about what he had always wanted to ask. : "In other people's minds... your surname is not Xiao?"
"My surname is indeed not Xiao." Xiao Qianqiu raised his eyes and looked at him.
