crossing yin and yang

Wei Yang was woken up by a nightmare. He dreamed that he was walking alone in the empty wilderness. There was no human habitation or any living things there, only a big and round red moon shining on the ground. The mass graves made up of low mounds, the will-o'-the-wisps flickered between the mounds like ghostly lights, he walked over step by step, over the jagged bones, over the grassy mounds, in a new grave that had just been sealed with soil. He stopped before, a palpitation throbbed in his chest, almost tearing his heart and lungs apart. I don't know if it was because of pain or sadness, he bent down, wanting to touch the handful of loess, He even dug up that shallow grave, just because he knew that someone he couldn't let go was buried there...

The person who can't let go... who is it?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Wei Yang woke up from that dream. Fear piled up in his body, turning into cold sweat and drenching his back. He rolled off the bed in embarrassment. Unconsciously looking for that familiar figure around.Who is buried in that tomb?Did he rescue Brother Qi? !

It seemed that they heard the noise in the room. Someone pushed open the door and walked in. A voice rang in his ears: "Ayang, you're awake!"

The person who spoke was Mr. Zeng, with a gentle tone and a kind of sincere concern, but Wei Yang did not look at him, his gaze was fixed behind Zeng Jingxuan, locking onto the figure behind him.It was a rather handsome young man with a stern face and a stern smile. He seemed to be injured, and his right arm was wrapped with a thick bandage.However, with just such a glance, Wei Yang's hand softened, and he sat down on the ground, with an uncontrollable smile on his lips.That's Brother Qi, Brother Qi is still here!

But the moment the ecstasy surged, Wei Yang realized something was wrong again. It was Zhang Xiuqi who was good, but the expression on his face was different from before. If it was just expressionless before, then his face now There is something more in the world, just like the sharp and biting coldness shown when killing Huang Zhou a long time ago, like an iceberg that has never changed since ancient times, with an indifference that repulses people thousands of miles away.

If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two, but Wei Yang and Zhang Xiuqi have been together day and night for two full months, and he can already recognize most of the expressions on that ice cube face, as well as the expressions they represent. emotion.How is this going?Could it be that something went wrong with Brother Qi's soul?

The moment he pushed the door open, the expression on the little guy's face changed a series of changes. Seeing it, Zeng Jingxuan couldn't help but sighed from the bottom of his heart, walked forward, lifted himself up and sat on the ground Wei Yang said softly: "Ayang, don't panic, Xiao Qi has recovered his soul, it's nothing serious."

According to the past, Wei Yang should have rushed up to grab Zhang Xiuqi and question him carefully, but for some reason today, he suddenly hesitated. After standing up with the strength of the support, he did not let go of Mr. Zeng's arm. He hesitated and asked: "Is this... recovered?"

"Yes, recovered, the three souls gathered together." Zeng Jingxuan replied calmly.

Not two souls!Wei Yang immediately grasped the key point, and suddenly tightened his grip on Mr. Zeng's hand: "What's going on? His Heavenly Soul is back too?"

"The heavenly soul was taken away by the bone formation at the beginning, so when you activated the bone formation, the heavenly soul naturally returned to its original position." Zeng Jingxuan showed a slightly gratified and bitter smile on his face, " It's just that Xiao Qi is still getting used to the return of the Heavenly Soul, so it might be a little different from before..."

Wei Yang didn't notice the expression on his face, he didn't even hear the second half of the sentence, his hands were already shaking, he couldn't help but took two steps forward, walked in front of Zhang Xiuqi, looked straight into those eyes, that The pair of black eyes are no longer as dazed as they were before. Instead, the light is restrained, and no emotion can be seen. Facing these strange eyes, Wei Yang opened his mouth, and finally squeezed out two words: "Qi elder brother."

Zhang Xiuqi stretched out his hand and supported Wei Yang's crumbling body. However, unlike his warm palm, there was no emotion in his voice. He just said coldly, "Wei Yang, thank you."

The tone was very polite, but there was also a hint of alienation. Wei Yang was stunned for a moment before he noticed the change in the other party's address. With a surname, it is short of a polite address of "Mr."This is not the little celestial master he is familiar with, and even turned into a completely different person.

Wei Yang had just woken up from a coma, and his brain was not strong enough to deal with such a complicated problem, so he couldn't respond in time, until the other party took him to the sofa and let go of his hand, he stretched out his hand unconsciously, I want to hold the man's fingers back.But Zhang Xiuqi raised his eyebrows slightly, and missed this retainer.

As if aware of the undercurrent between the two, Zeng Jingxuan coughed lightly, sat next to Wei Yang, and said slowly: "Ah Yang, you spent too much energy and vitality on mobilizing the bone array before, and you are already in a coma. After two full days, there may be some things that are not clear. I have talked with Xiao Qi several times, and I probably figured out what happened and the ins and outs of the bone array."

The other words failed to call Wei Yang's attention, but the word "bone formation" did bring him back to his senses. The bone formation that he took away from the descendant should have been accidentally obtained by him when he was a child, even because of that. Things cost the lives of their parents, and later the bone array was taken away by Brother Qi's father. Could something have happened in the meantime?

Zeng Jingxuan didn't give Wei Yang time to guess, and said it directly: "After saving you, Xiao Qi and his father went to a forbidden area in Longhu Mountain to try out. The two launched a very powerful formation as a guide. There should be some kind of soul restraining technique in this formation. Originally, the formation force would disperse all of Xiao Qi's souls, but by mistake, his soul never disappeared. The scattered celestial soul instead entered the bone array, and this thing is also a magic weapon for conceiving and nourishing the soul, which allowed the celestial soul to pass through 20 years safely."

"That bone array... saved Brother Qi?" Wei Yang couldn't help being a little dazed. What happened in Wangcun back then is still vivid in his memory, which made him have a deep fear of that bone array. Did Brother Qi's soul linger?

"It can be said that, it can even be said that you saved him yourself. If the bone array hadn't been stimulated by your blood back then, it probably wouldn't have had such an effect." Zeng Jingxuan answered calmly, no longer looking at him. The sharpness of scrutiny, on the contrary, showed some gentleness.

Hearing this, Wei Yang's expression moved slightly again. He remembered what Master Chizhi said at the beginning. It could have died in Wangcun, or in the mouth of that fox demon, and if Mr. Zhang hadn't taken away the bone array back then, Brother Qi's soul could not have been preserved intact for such a long time. Whether he saved himself, or he saved him, is already entangled, and he can no longer tell the difference.And this knowledge calmed down Wei Yang's fearful heart since he woke up. They should have a bond, not just because of the bone array.

Seeing that Wei Yang's expression eased, Zeng Jingxuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "The two descendants are dead now, even if the other party wants that manuscript more, they should know that it is not in Mr. Yao's hands. , since he is out of danger, we should also leave."

Wei Yang was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Zhang Xiuqi's bandaged arm, and said involuntarily, "Shouldn't you stay in the hospital for a while longer? Brother Qi's injury seems to be serious that day... Ah, and Mr. Zeng you The injury..."

Wei Yang didn't mention himself, Zeng Jingxuan smiled and waved his hands: "It's just minor injuries, just take care of them slowly. After you have a meal, we'll leave in the afternoon."

Unexpectedly, it would be so fast, Wei Yang was surprised and wanted to say something, Zeng Jingxuan had already told Zhang Xiuqi: "Xiao Qi, go and see what else is in the small cafeteria, and bring something easy to digest."

Zhang Xiuqi didn't refuse, stood up directly, and walked out the door.Looking at the back of the other party who didn't miss him, Wei Yang felt a little uncomfortable. During the time he woke up, Brother Qi didn't say anything to him, and didn't make any eye contact. He just sat aside coldly, as if forgetting same as myself.Ah... Could it be that I really forgot?Could this be one of the sequelae of Heavenly Soul Return?

Wei Yang immediately turned his head and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Zeng, does Brother Qi still remember what happened when he lost his Heavenly Soul? Did he... forget something?"

Zeng Jingxuan smiled faintly: "These days there will be some memory confusion. After all, it has been 20 years. It may take some time to complete it and appreciate all the emotions in it, but...the most important ones, he has everything. Already remembered."

The most important ones?Wei Yang's lips trembled, and he squeezed out a smile: "Then, what about the less important ones? Can he still remember..."

Seeing the other party's pale face, Zeng Jingxuan slightly avoided the pleading gaze: "Maybe, maybe not. No one in history has lost their Heavenly Soul for so long, so I don't really know."

This is avoiding the important and taking the light, of course Wei Yang can hear it, but with just such a sentence, a little flame ignited in his heart, maybe he is not that important, but Brother Qi can still remember his name anyway, maybe it is because of the jade talisman , can remember himself as a child, this is always a little hope, he will not lose everything.Pursing his lips, Wei Yang finally squeezed out a smile: "Anyway, it's good to be able to recover the Heavenly Soul, and there's no need to take the risk of searching everywhere."

Let Brother Qi become a truly complete person, isn't this what he has always expected?You don't have to worry about the days of detaining three souls every month, and you don't have to be afraid that the other party's soul will fly away if you are not careful. This is already the best result.As for the others, they are just minor details, and he will try his best.

Letting go of the burden in his chest, Wei Yang finally relaxed his expression, but looking at his slightly tired face, Zeng Jingxuan sighed in his heart and suppressed other things he wanted to say.

The meal came quickly, and Wei Yang finished the sick meal in a short time. He got up again and contacted Mr. Sun and Mr. Yao respectively, and explained the follow-up. The three left the hospital and drove to the city. rush to.

Zeng Jingxuan was the driver of course, Zhang Xiuqi sat in the co-pilot, leaving Wei Yang alone in the back seat, due to lack of energy, when the car passed the expressway toll booth, Wei Yang fell asleep in a daze past.Looking at the drowsy young man through the rearview mirror, Zeng Jingxuan sighed, and asked, "Xiao Qi, are we really not going to take Wei Yang with us when we go to find those people this time? After all, he is from the Wu family." Bloodlines can also stimulate the group of bone formations, and it can also be used as a booster..."

Zhang Xiuqi didn't look at the back seat, but slightly tightened his left hand on his lap, and replied coldly, "You can't take him there."

The voice was decisive, without any hesitation.Zeng Jingxuan hesitated for a moment, didn't ask why, but just nodded: "That's fine."

The two stopped talking, stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove forward at high speed.
