sinking in his peril

"What's the story like?" Ouyang Qing looked at Bai Xiyao and asked softly.

Bai Xiyao froze for a moment, and sat down on a protruding stone, it was here, as if the red candle no longer existed, as if it was here, she and Cong Yier became one, talking and doing Cong Yier The things I only do, I just have some vague impressions, like sleepwalking, I don’t remember what I did or said.

Is Cong Yi'er human?It doesn't seem to be, it's just a memory!
Sang Yue once said that the soul has no body, so will the soul rest on her this time?Why is there no feeling of being reborn, she is still her, just a vague memory, no new perception of life?

"There used to be a man and a woman who were deeply in love here. One was the current Emperor Xuan and later the emperor, and the other was the daughter of the palace. Just like what we saw in the story, they met and fell in love, and after going through untold hardships, We finally got together." Bai Xiyao said slowly, this was telling a story, she said to herself, she was telling the story Sima told her, it had nothing to do with her, she was telling the story of Cong Yier and Sima Yixuan The story has nothing to do with her, Bai Xiyao.

"What happened next?" Ouyang Qing waited for a long time, but she didn't see Bai Xiyao continue talking. She seemed to be in a daze, so she asked, in fact, he wasn't interested in the story, it was just that Bai Xiyao told the story, and he only willing to listen.

"Later?" Bai Xiyao hesitated for a moment, and thought for a while, "Later, they broke up, and the woman died because of life and death." She felt that what she said was very boring, as if there was no interest at all, but Cong The story of Yi'er and Sima Yixuan is very touching, why is it so boring to tell it by myself?not understand!

"Is it right here?" Ouyang Qing also felt that the story was a little pale. It didn't seem like Bai Xiyao's style. She seemed reluctant to tell it, as if she didn't want to share her own private affairs with others. "Here is their A separate place? At a wedding? Father said this should be a wedding venue."

Bai Xiyao nodded, thought for a while and said: "Yes, I also said just now that this is the wedding scene of Cong Yi'er and Sima Yixuan, and it's here that they get married and they separate. It's very strange, I thought I should tell you a very romantic and beautiful love story, but why is it so pale when I say it?"

Ouyang Qing shook his head, "I don't know. However, it does sound a bit tasteless."

Bai Xiyao nodded and sighed, what's going on?

"Okay, let's talk about Cong Yi'er first, is it the woman in the painting, who looks somewhat similar to you, to be exact, I think the woman you drew is almost a reprint of yourself, It's just that the clothes are from ancient times." Ouyang Qing said with a smile, "I'm a little curious, are you another descendant of this dynasty, just like Sima is a descendant of this dynasty, are you also a descendant of this dynasty , will this happen? Impossible, but you can meet the things in the old site, and you are similar to the woman in the painting."

"Ask my grandma. I don't know. It's probably not very likely." Bai Xiyao joked, "Cong Yi'er is an outstanding woman, but I'm just an ordinary woman. Can I be compared? However, I don't think so. Women are really curious."

"Maybe she is your ancestor." Ouyang Qing also joked, their chatting and laughing added a warm flavor to the old site, "So, she will find you, just like if Sima Dao came here, Sima Yi It's like Xuan will come to him, isn't it?"

"Maybe." Bai Xiyao hesitated, looked around, "I just don't know where the red candle is now, do you believe it has burned out? Probably not."

Ouyang Qing was a little hesitant, and slowly said: "I have seen the burnt red candle, it should not be a real red candle, something must have happened that day, the red candle must have been lost, what I am worried about is who got it I left the red candle and tested it with Tao Zi. There is indeed a nerve-wracking substance in the pair of red candles. It is estimated that my father’s abnormality some time ago was caused by the substance emitted by this pair of red candles. Fortunately, it was lost, otherwise , Father doesn't know what will happen."

"Do you really want to remember?" A voice suddenly sounded in Bai Xiyao's ear, "It's hard to forget, it's hard to stop being sad, do you have to fall into it again?"

Bai Xiyao was taken aback, looked around, but there was no one, she stared at Ouyang Qing, hesitated for a long time before slowly saying: "Did you hear someone talking just now?"

Ouyang Qing shook his head: "No, did the hallucinations reappear?"

"I don't know, it feels more like talking to myself." Bai Xiyao felt trapped in a rather strange feeling. She was trying to feel the existence of Cong Yi'er, but why did she feel more and more like Are you delusional?

Ouyang Qing smiled, "With me here, it's fine. In fact, since there is no red candle, here has become much quieter. Just like my father said, it seems that there is no spirituality. It seems that the red candle is the key to all the past. If you don’t, everything won’t work.”

Bai Xiyao hesitated for a moment, and looked around. Why is there an inexplicable sense of intimacy here? Although the red candle is gone, it is much cooler, but it gave her an inexplicable sense of intimacy, "It's okay, let's continue Look around, here, any more interesting discoveries these days?"

"No." Ouyang Qing shook his head and walked forward with Bai Xiyao. "By the way, have you finished your story?"

Bai Xiyao was stunned, and looked at Ouyang Qing, "It should be the end of the talk, they are not together, and then they hoped to meet again, but Bi Bai lost the news and could never find each other again."

Ouyang Qing sighed, "Just like the Aegean stories we read, the sad ones are always unforgettable. When you walk on the Naihe Bridge, if you want to be reborn, you will always lose something, such as memories. Maybe in this life, they don't have Didn't you say that they didn't want to think about each other's memories because they loved too deeply and hurt too much?"

"Did I say that?" Bai Xiyao asked in surprise.

Ouyang Qing hesitated, "It seems to mean this."

Bai Xiyao felt a pain in her chest, not hurt, but sad, unspeakable sad, sorry for Sima, he was looking for it, but Cong Yier refused to remember, would rather disappear than remember again, could it be After being raped once, are you really unwilling to love again?
The phone rang suddenly, an unfamiliar number, a short text message, "Learn to forget, never meet again." There was no signature, but Bai Xiyao knew that this was a short message from Sima, he wanted her to forget him, he If they never meet again, he is unwilling to hurt her, unwilling to forget Cong Yier, the only way to do this is not to give him a way out of his vague liking, and leave absolutely. For Cong Yier, he would rather live like a walking dead, even if there is someone in front of him. The chance that Duan might be warm, he didn't even give himself a chance.

However, he still left a text message, using his own mobile phone instead of the mobile phone number borrowed from Xiao Yi. He still expressed his concern when he arrived. He hoped that she would be happy. He believed that as long as she forgets him, She can be happy.

Does Cong Yi'er think the same way? Her life is gone, and she is determined to forget him. She knows that only when he forgets her can he have the possibility of happiness, and he chose not to forget.

She ran out of time, she had to find Cong Yi'er in the shortest possible time, even if it was just for a quiet look, before she could forget him, she couldn't bear to forget him.

"I have something to leave, and I'll be back soon." Bai Xiyao said softly, her face was full of reluctance, and she felt very wronged in her heart, but Sima couldn't blame him, his love was given to Cong Yi'er, and he would never do it again To anyone, but she is a latecomer, an outsider, she doesn't give up, but she doesn't give up, and her love has always been very gentle, in his life, there is no toughness, she doesn't ask for anything, demanding anything , how to make him remember.

Ouyang Qing nodded, didn't ask about the content of the text message, but said gently: "Don't worry, go get busy, I'm always here."

Bai Xiyao lowered her head, apologizing in her heart, sorry, at this time, maybe for a long time, she will not be able to accept others anymore, with Sima in her heart, she can't tolerate anyone, she just let down the innocent Ouyang Qing, if he You can learn to forget.

Hurrying to the Yinxiang Restaurant, it has almost been dismantled, and it looks much deserted. I saw Gannan's car from a distance, parked at each entrance, and walked over. There was no one in the car. When I walked into the Yinxiang Restaurant, there were no guests inside. Only two or three waiters were busy, packing up some items, hesitated, and Bai Xiyao went straight into the elevator that went directly to the top of the building, but her heart beat wildly for no reason.

Seemingly knowing that she would come, Sima was very calm about her appearance, and when he heard Bai Xiyao's footsteps coming behind him, he said slowly, "Here we come."

Bai Xiyao immediately burst into tears, feeling very wronged, her voice was a little unnatural, "Why do you want to leave? I don't need to disturb you, I don't need to be around you, why do I have to leave? Do I really have to leave?"

Sima paused for a moment, then turned around, with a shallow, gentle smile on his face, and said softly: "I have stayed in one place for too long, and I have to change places. I prefer to stay alone. There are too many people here. Too many, too messy, not suitable for me."

Bai Xiyao really shed tears, her heart was confused and anxious, she didn't know what to say, so she could only murmur, "Why don't you leave? I promise I won't disturb you."

Sima walked over, gently took Bai Xiyao into his arms, like a big brother, and said gently: "I'm sorry, I have to leave, Xiyao, it's not fair to you if I stay any longer. Things have begun to attract my attention, they are too similar to Yier's feeling, if I stay any longer, I will want you to be Yier's substitute because of these things, in this way, it is unfair to Yier and you, and I It just satisfies my selfish thoughts, which is not good."

Bai Xiyao shouted thousands of times in her heart: "I don't care, I don't care!" But she couldn't tell, she didn't care, Sima cared, even if he didn't care, he still cared seriously about her feelings, what kind of woman Can you bear such affection? !
Bai Xiyao could only cry, hiding in Sima's arms, weeping silently.

Sima didn't say anything or do anything, but let Bai Xiyao shed tears silently for a while, and then said softly and gently: "Don't try to find Yier again, if she is willing to come back, she will come back naturally. I have enough Time waits for her to come back, if she refuses to come back, please don't force her, she is her freedom, if she refuses to come back, it can only be said that my love is not deep enough for her to return to this entanglement, As long as she feels happy, that's the best."

"How could she forget you?" Bai Xiyao said sadly; "She has no right to forget you. The situation at that time was not your responsibility. If you hadn't been poisoned, you certainly wouldn't have hurt her by mistake. She didn't leave because of you." , but that place does not allow her."

"Yi'er is not wrong. The fault is that I didn't know how much I cared about her at the time. I cared so much that I could expect her return by living. Just like when she thought I was dead but was willing to live. It was worth it."
