Penglai delusion

"But in the dream, you are different from now." Jiang Tan paused, and suddenly felt a lightness in his sleeve.Looking down, the snowdrops fell out somehow.The hair is white, the blood stains are all gone, and he looks like a normal fox.

The little snow fox landed on all fours, hopped and raised the broken ice all the way, ran to Xi Mo's side a few times, and wagged his tail very affectionately at him.

Xi Mo couldn't help smiling, stretched out his hand to take the fox into his arms, and began to stroke it.

"Since the suzerain knows that dreams are illusory, he shouldn't be too demanding on a dead person." He wrapped the snow-white fox fur around his fingertips, implying, "Look, even a little pet understands better than you."

Jiang Tan frowned and looked at the bone cart, seeing the little fox's ears trembling when someone touched it, and even turning its belly up and wriggling wantonly, he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

Except for herself, Xuedi never gets close to others, not even her parents, brothers and sisters.It is not surprising that he is willing to be fed by the head of the sect, but he has never seen such a charming look who invites pets in every possible way.

Just as he was about to make a sound, he watched Xue Disheng being felt as a phantom, and then he was never seen again.

"I like it, it's my lord." Xi Mo twirled his fingertips and said as a matter of course.

"No." Jiang Tan said, "Xuedi is the son of an old friend, I promised to take it back properly."

"The suzerain should clarify one thing first." Xi Mo said coldly, "I have not changed the decision I made, so there is no need to say more."

"...Xi Mo, you asked me for the love you want, and I will give it to you." Jiang Tan clenched his right palm, "I have kept your sword, and I have kept it to pay you back in the future. But Xuedi..."

"Take it all, I don't need it anymore." Xi Mo said coolly, "Could it be that the suzerain doesn't know that I have returned all of my love before my death. Now this place is empty."

He pointed to his chest, and curled his lips indifferently, "It's also ridiculous. I used to like a man. I really shouldn't."

Jiang Tan was stunned.

His throat seemed to be solidified by a wall, and he pursed his lips a few times before saying, "It's not ridiculous, and there's nothing wrong with it. Love is love. There's nothing wrong with liking someone."

"Heh, there are a lot of truths." Xi Mo smiled lightly, "Since the suzerain is so good at talking, why not come to Huangquan."

"This Lord is getting married." He seemed to be thinking, "But now that I have no relatives or reasons, only a nominal master like the suzerain is left, so it's not too much for you to officiate the marriage."

Jiang Tan froze, just about to say that we were married, but suddenly remembered that Xi Mo was dead.

If you die once, what happened before you were alive doesn't count.This is the reason he himself recognized at the beginning.

Jiang Tan was silent for a while, then said, "Okay."

He clenched his fists tightly, ignored the yelling from the master behind him, and resolutely got on the skeleton cart.

Stepping to the end of the bone steps, Jiang Tan took a look at Xi Mo again, and found that he was still standing firm against the forehead, the ear feathers and temple hair were still entangled, his face was indeed cold, and there was no half-heartedness The color of appointment.

Jiang Tan paused, and the dragon's horn ring in his palm was so painful.

This is Xi Mo's Qianqiu Sword, but Xi Mo doesn't want it anymore.

Like he doesn't want him anymore.

Jiang Tan was silent for a while, and suddenly realized how sad Xi Mo was when Xi Mo was chasing after him and he didn't even look back.

Now that he understands, it's useless.

Those he turned a deaf ear to were the hottest hearts.

When the heart is gone, naturally nothing will exist.

Thinking of this, Jiang Tan's heart seemed to be split in two.He was a little out of breath, he only frowned and looked at the sea, subconsciously released his consciousness, but he still couldn't find any trace of Fengya Island.

The eight white snakes moved, and turned the front of the car towards Huangquan.When Lili was about to move, he gave a round of longbow to block the way.

The head of the sect stood up first, raising his eyebrows fearlessly, "Hey, hey! Since your Excellency the Ghost King has taken you away..."

"As the sect master saw, the suzerain is willing to go with me." Xi Mo tilted his head slightly, "Please remember that it will be thirty days at the latest. If there is still no movement after this period, I will go to collect the talisman in person. Wherever you go, everything will be as quiet as the wind. At that time, what will happen to Penglai and Kyushu, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

"No, the map of the nine wilds is broken, and the Three Realms are connected. Isn't it still a loss-making business? It's better to fight now, and it doesn't have to be as long as 30 days. Whoever wins depends on whoever wins." The leader said, rolling up his long sleeves. , completely forgetting the fact that he can't move his spirit.

"I have something to do, so I won't accompany you." Xi Mo knocked on the edge of the cart, the Snake Ancestor opened his mouth wide, and the wind blew up, and he threw the huge moon bow back to the cloud floating wood.

At the same time, a bayonet-like wing bone protruded from the half of the giant tree, piercing Lingshu's left palm, who was hiding behind the tree.

"Elder, that heart is useless. Hidden in the way, I will finish it for you. The soul is a ghost dish, and the body is just an addition for the convenience of feeling. Even if you want to start a battle with this, you can't restrict me at all. .”

Xi Mo folded his sleeves and smiled slightly, "The only one in the Three Realms who can restrain me is already unable to do so."

Instead, he lowered his voice and said ambiguously, "Sovereign, you don't have to hold back. Once you release the power of the spirit, you will know whether it will be effective for me."

Jiang Tan unleashed a coercion according to his words, but Xi Mo was indifferent to it.

"How about it, remember the taste in the dream." Xi Mozhen raised his chin at Jiang Tan's lower abdomen, even with a slight smile full of malice, "Although it is an illusion, those things that go in are not fake. They are bound Hold your soul, Suzerain."

At this time, the bone cart was running over the line of life and death, and according to the sound, it was slowly placed in the middle of the road.

"Since the suzerain knows that you can't suppress me, would you still like to go?" Xi Mo said leisurely, "If you don't go, I won't force you. It's just following the old system, and it's not that important whether you have an officiant marriage or not."

Jiangtan didn't move.

"Ask one last time." Xi Mo said patiently, "The suzerain really wants to go with me?"

"Ah."

"No regrets?"

"Ah."

The world is silent, the friendship between life and death, the two face each other quietly as before, just like the twin kings of demons and ghosts looking at each other thousands of years ago on their birthdays, spring and autumn.

"Very good, courage is commendable." Xi Mo let out a smile from the tip of his nose, and applauded perfunctorily, turned his hands and tore off the sleeves, flung them to bind Jiang Tan's wrists, and hooked them firmly in his hands.

"Sovereign," he tugged, pulled Jiangtan onto the couch, and whispered in his ear, "If you come here, you have to go with me."

Jiang Tan looked down at the sleeve, and said, "You don't have to tie it up, I will go with you too."

"That's right. I think you're not very willing." Xi Moyan played with the hem of his sleeve, "But how can I know exactly what the suzerain has in mind."

He paused, "Speaking of which, since the suzerain is still willing to be my teacher, it seems that this gentleman should respectfully call you 'Master'."

Jiang Tan raised his eyes and looked at him seriously.

"Master." The tip of Xi Mo's tongue twirled slightly, and his voice became tired, "Do you like me calling you that? Or do you prefer 'Master', 'Brother', 'Sixth Brother'?"

Jiang Tan didn't make a sound.

Xi Mo's words were frivolous, but his attitude was indifferent, and his emotions did not fluctuate.A sense of alienation is clearly embedded in the bones, and the deliberate desire to play tricks is probably nothing more than the drive of curiosity.

Sitting on his knees, Jiang Tan pondered deeply, and suddenly his jaw was opened, and he was fed a cold bead.

"Hold it under the tongue, and you can enter and leave the ghost city at will. If you spit it out, I can't protect you from being corrupted by ghost energy." Xi Mo said lightly, "Speaking of it, you left this thing behind. This time it will be considered a return." The original owner, there is no need to return it."

After a little self-inspection, Jiang Tan realized that this was the dragon pupil that Xi Mo had given him back then.Once nourished by the dragon energy, the dark golden skin has faded at this time, and it has become a star that truly shines with silver brilliance.

The bone cart slowly drove into the ghost town.

It seems that the ghost king's wedding is coming soon, and there are shadows in the already deserted city, bloody silk and black satin are everywhere, and the empty market is strangely alive because of this decoration.

Jiang Tan looked around at the scene, and felt that the dragon's air flowing through his throat gradually dissipated the piercing feeling.He raised his left hand.The frost on the fingertips has dissipated, and the palace in the distance protrudes through the fingers, blocking the eyes.

At the end of the main road, there is a wall of underworld, and the scorched black ring hides the heavy pavilion, like a screen surrounding the ghost king's residence.

Jiang Tan could not help being startled when he saw a dark blue shadow standing on the top of the wall.

When the car stopped at the wall door, Xi Mo put away the shackles on Jiang Tan's wrists, and his clothes belt meandered down the bone steps.Seeing this, the shadow fell straight down, and landed gracefully in front of the two of them.

"This is Ai Duo, and I will be my companion from tomorrow." Xi Mo tapped on the car, with a faint smile, "I heard her mention the suzerain. I didn't expect you to be half as old, so it's a coincidence. "

This girl named Queen of the Ghost is the former Quanwei who once led the river into Hongyuan.

At this moment, she still covered her face with a handful of light veils, with only moonstone-like pupils open, she nodded coldly towards Jiangtan, and then bowed to Xi Mo, "Your Majesty, all the preparations for the wedding are complete, and we will be here tonight." It is possible to salute."

"Okay, you go and tidy up. Although everything is simple, it still takes a long time for the bride to dress up." Xi Mo said, "Thank you for your hard work. See you at Yedian."

"See you at Ye Dian." Ai Duo saluted again, glanced at Jiang Tan without a trace, and turned away.

Jiang Tan looked at her back, and there was a little turmoil in his heart.

"Master, don't look, go this way." Xi Mo raised his left wrist lightly, put the shrunken snake ancestor back on his arm, and walked in the completely opposite direction from Aiduo.

Jiang Tan followed the man for a while before saying, "Why are you so eager to get married?"

"Tu Li thinks it is necessary." Xi Mo said calmly, "Thinking about it this way, he is really verbose. If you don't do something that is obviously simple, you must go through a strange ceremony."

"...Why did you choose Aiduo?"

"I don't choose her, why should I choose you?" Xi Mo smiled slightly, "After Ai Duo is a slave of the dragon clan, since she is under the rule of the king, she should have no rebellious heart. She will enter the ruins at that time. The unquenchable dragon fire was noticed by Tu Li, so he became a candidate for the bride."

Jiang Tan hesitated a little, and said, "Do you like her?"

"It doesn't matter if you like it or not." Xi Mo said indifferently, "Anyway, I don't feel love, everyone is the same. Since Tu Li thinks Ai Duo is the most suitable, there must be his reason."

Jiang Tan didn't feel it was weird, "Tu Li thinks it's suitable, so I want you to get married."

"...Master's questions are a bit too much." Xi Mo said calmly, "The way to be a guest is to follow the etiquette, and you should not ask questions to the host."

After saying that, he stayed under a solitary building, "There is a new shop on the top of the pavilion, where Master can rest."

After thinking for a while, another white shadow fell from the sleeve, rolling softly at Jiangtan's feet, "Let's stay here for a while. After all, after the wedding, we will never see each other again."

Jiang Tan left without looking back, leaned over to pick up Xuedi in his arms, and then turned his hand to push open the sealed building door.

This building is a beautiful tower with seven floors.He went up and down the narrow ladder, and saw that there was indeed a soft couch on the top floor, with candles, fruit wine, towels, ointments, pots and buckets, everything was available.

Jiangtan let the snow drop to the ground, watched it jump up to the window sill with a few steps, pushed the window fan open, and followed it, worried that the little fox would accidentally fall again.

Walking to the side, I saw people squeaking and screaming at the distant Xuan Ying, and couldn't help shaking their tails.

He glanced at the hairy tail swung into a flower, and looked at Xi Mo together with the snow fox, falling into deep thought.

As you can see, Xi Mo will form this marriage no matter what.

Now, I really have no position to stop it.

Jiang Tan spread out his right palm, and the black ring embedded in his palm was already stained with a thin layer of blood.It was as bright red as the blood and tears that Xi Mo fell on his face in Returning to the Ruins.

It was me at the beginning, saying that love and hate are not the same, life and death are not the same.

Later, it was me who stabbed Xi Mo to death with a sword, and cut out his heart with his own hands.

In the end, it was also me, the place where the dream was frightened, no matter how difficult it was to fall asleep.

Love is really hard.He has never loved, so he makes mistakes again and again.

But this time the barriers across China are neither racial differences nor secular views.

It is death and life, death and existence.

Jiang Tan took out the ring and slowly put it on his little finger.

Even if Xi Mo doesn't want it anymore, he will always wear it.

Love or hate, life or death.
