The blue-haired princess directly asked him his deepest secret.
Although the sage never told Ge Sheng to conceal this.
But the preaching process of a saint should never be heard by a third person.
Ye Qing, on the other hand, asked flatly to be the third person.
The girl must confirm her vow to never lie to each other at this very moment.
Or get vetoed.
Ge Sheng just smiled at this, and then said three words seriously: "Take a look."
After these three words, Ge Sheng told Xiaojiu the story seriously.
That waiting by the lake, the old man fishing with a fishing rod without hook and bait.
That question and answer full of mystery.
That long laugh from the saint.
And an ordinary finger that cuts across the entire holy lake.
Then Ge Sheng recalled: "At that time, I followed him and made that stroke, and finally I reached the lake of thousands of feet with one finger."
"There is no so-called formula, and there is no mental method. Just stroke it with no distracting thoughts, and heaven and earth will respond to you." Ge Sheng said, "This is the Heavenly Sword."
"So now." Ye Qing said curiously: "Can you still draw it?"
"That night, I accompanied the hero to build up my energy for a whole night, so I was able to draw three Tiandao swords." Ge Sheng answered seriously.
"The first sword struck the lake, and then thousands of feet of ice sliced smoothly in front of me, and the lake beyond my sight flowed backwards in my field of vision."
"The second sword slashed open the Nine Treasure Lotus Lantern in front of the City of Eternal Night, and white fireflies soared all over the city."
"The third sword was blocked by Xing Xi. The soaring Golden Crow is unforgettable."
"These are my three swords that night. Even now, I still have no ability to draw the same three swords." Ge Sheng said: "Now, I feel that I will not be able to draw the second sword for a long time."
"Why do you say so much to me?" Ye Qing was silent after hearing this, and then asked.
"Because it's something I feel I should say." Ge Sheng replied.
"In addition to what I want to know, you also told me about your own weaknesses." Ye Qing sighed: "You don't need to tell me."
"But people will know it eventually, and I have never thought of hiding it." Ge Sheng replied: "Also, since you can't hide it, then naturally you are the first person to know."
"What percentage did you get in the end for Xia Dao?" Ye Qing asked.
"If it's 100%." Ge Sheng thought seriously: "I think it's about 15%."
"One and a half percent can split the heavenly realm spiritual weapon with one sword." Ye Qing smiled seriously: "Then if you can master it all at a glance, everyone in the world will look at the heavenly sword, and who will bother to practice it? The saint's method really takes away the creation of ghosts and gods."
"I'm just surprised that Emperor Shuhua is actually a disciple of Xia. So you should be?" She thought about this question seriously: "Is she her great-uncle?"
"On the premise that she will admit it." Ge Sheng corrected seriously.
Ye Qing finally discovered that this magical seniority issue would indeed drive many people crazy, so he finally decided to ignore this seniority issue. Then the blue-haired princess gently lowered her eyelids and murmured in a low voice: "Truth or dare, brother, you passed the test." ah."
The daughter of the empire asked slightly sadly: "Hey, brother, do you want to hear my story?"
"I was originally the youngest daughter of the Lanye Emperor, named Ye Qing. I was the fourth princess canonized by the empire, and because I was the youngest, I was nicknamed Xiaojiu in my family. This is where the ninth princess came from."
"My original pride, I'm sure you can't imagine it. Just like in those legends, the Ninth Princess is known as the smartest guy in the world. He is willful, stubborn and lawless."
"Actually, that's probably true." Ye Qing confirmed with a smile.
"When we first met, the me you knew was probably not the real me." She said calmly, with the tenderness of a child and the pride of a princess in her words: "I have always been used to being lawless at home, and I have the status of the most favored Ninth Princess, even if the princes see me, they will not neglect me openly."
"The nickname Princess Riddle was probably spread at that time." She recalled that time and smiled softly: "When I was eight years old, I entered the Lanye Empire Parliament as a member of the royal family participating in politics. At that time, I , naturally I didn’t go in for any lofty thoughts, the reason why I wanted to participate was just because.”
The ten-year-old princess shook her head: "At that time, I thought this thing was very fun."
"So I played there for a whole year. If you could call me the Demon King at that time, I don't think anyone would refuse."
"But all my actions are in compliance with the imperial constitution, and they have no qualifications or power to let me leave there."
She looked at Ge Sheng: "So, there is only one way for me to leave, that is to ignore the emperor's joint meeting vote. I am indeed unpopular, even if I think about it now, their impeachment proposal was passed by a high vote, so I must Leave before sundown that day and never be there again.”
"Although I am very young and cute now, I was obviously smaller and cuter at that time, so I applied for a joint defense."
"The process is complicated, but the result is simple." Ye Qing recalled that time, not happy at all: "I became the seventh person in history to pass the imperial parliament's joint defense, and before that, their youngest was Forty-eight years old, I was eight years old at that time.”
"It's amazing." Ge Sheng praised.
"Yes, it's amazing." Ye Qing nodded and said, "At that time, I thought so too, there is no one more amazing than me in the world."
"I am so proud, thinking that I am the best genius in the world." Ye Qing said, "I am the most noble princess on this earth. I can do anything I want to do."
"I really think so."
"I believe this too."
"Then." Ye Qing said calmly, as if he had eaten something unclean in the morning: "Mom is dead."
"It was a very serious illness at first, so serious that I didn't know how to treat it."
"I will cough up blood, I will barely be able to eat anything, I will lose weight day by day, and no matter whether I take medicine or use magic, there will be no effect."
"At that time, I naively thought that as long as I did my best, I could save everything." When Ye Qing said this, he was so calm and calm: "I will cook the medicine myself in one night, and I will After tasting it, I would feed it to my mother. I would stay with my mother by her bedside without taking off my clothes for a whole month. When I was tired, I would lie on her body and rest for a while. I would also learn to cook some simple nourishing porridge for my mother to drink. Sing some of your favorite songs to mom."
"At that time, I believed that as long as I was obedient enough, sensible enough, filial enough, and smart enough, then my mother would definitely get better."
"So I will only wait until my mother falls asleep, then go back to the room next to me and cry quietly, and then carefully apply ice to my eyes. Because if my mother finds out that I am crying, I will look very stupid, right?" Ye Qing asked Ge Sheng gently, but did not expect Ge Sheng's answer.
"A well-behaved and sensible child should always smile and encourage his mother and say: You will get better, right? Mom."
"But it's useless, it's useless, it's useless, it's useless, it's useless." Ye Qing repeated softly, with a kind of madness that was close to despair in his repetition: "Whatever I do, it's useless."
"Mom is getting thinner day by day, and her coughing up blood is getting worse every day."
"I can't drink medicine or eat anything."
"Then one day." Ge Sheng wanted to ask Ye Qing, who was on the verge of collapse, to stop, but Ye Qing shook his head to stop him.
"My mother died in my hands, and I felt her hands slowly getting colder. She could no longer speak, she could no longer sing, and she would never wake up after falling asleep."
"I will never hold me to that carved red sandalwood door again, and say to you with a smile: Xiaojiu, I will give you this world."
"Then someone told me that my mother gave Chiba Ryubi to me."
"Then someone told me that my mother would not be buried in Huaiyu Valley, but would be buried in a simple ice coffin and sunk into the holy lake."
"Then I was told that Daddy was choosing a new Mummy."
"I went to look for my brothers and sisters, but they all had cold faces, neither crying nor laughing."
"I went to see my father and scolded him in person, but he said, Qing'er, you are still young, you will understand when you grow up."
"I don't know what I should do, I don't know what else I can do. I used to think that I was the ninth princess of this empire. There is nothing in this world that I can't do. That's when I realized that I was actually just a A stupid kid who can’t do anything.”
When saying this, Ye Qing spoke softly.
"Then that night, I left the letter alone and quietly left that incomparably huge palace. Because it was so huge, there were exquisite and tight waterways in the palace."
"That night was March 10th, the day of my ninth birthday."
“I had nothing to do, nothing to do, so I requested in that letter that my title of princess be revoked, and then I came to this lake, the place closest to my mother, and built this An ice house."
Ye Qing looked at the lake behind him: "You already know what's going to happen next, brother."
Ge Sheng shook his head and told himself: There are still things he doesn't know. In the six months before he met Ye Qing, he didn't know how this once stunning princess walked alone and even lost the most basic language ability. .
But Ge Sheng didn't want to know either.
"What if my mother dies like this?" So he gently changed the subject. "I would be so sad too."
"Xiaojiu, you are so strong."
"Actually, when you really suffer from this, you won't think so." Ye Qing shook his head and said softly.
"As for Xia's questions, I don't know why I'm here or what I'm going to do."
"But now that I'm here, I want to protect what I want to protect."
"I don't want anyone to take away what I hold dear again."
"elder brother."
Ye Qing smiled under the starlight, with clear tears streaming down his face.
"Would you like to come with me?"
