Soul knot

Goblins are not born with a name, after all, not every goblin's parents can also be goblins.

Birds, beasts, flowers, plants and trees that have not yet opened their minds will not name their children. Most of them are arranged according to birth order or size, and the youngest one, the second, the third, and the fourth are called casually.

Most goblins without a name will find a senior who is closest to them after they can transform themselves independently, and ask the senior to give them a name, or choose a name for themselves.

Manshanhong is the name given to Manzhu by the old snake father surnamed Man in the mountains.

The old snake father is the oldest elf in the mountain, and all the little snake demons in the mountain are regarded as his own. Anyone who has cultivated a human form will ask him for a name.

The year Manzhu cultivated his human form, the old snake father was already more than 4000 years old. His body was so weak that he could not even maintain his human form. He could only lie cross-legged in the snake cave all day long, eating the food brought by the little snake cubs.

The old snake father saw that the most colorful little red python in the mountain had turned into a shape, so he happily ran to find him to ask for his name, so he pretended to climb out of the cave and took a look.

Seeing the red flowers all over the mountain, he closed his eyes and said slowly, "Xiaohong, look at the red flowers blooming brilliantly all over the mountain, how about you call it Manshanhong?"

Back then, Manzhu thought the name was good and was happy for a long time.

Until the crooked neck and big flat neck came to the mountain and was rescued by the little emerald green snake, her name began to suffer constant dislike.

That guy's mouth is really cheap, and he even said that the name Manshanhong is similar to the names of Zhao Damei, Wang Jinhua, Zhou Chunmiao outside the mountain. .

It's fine to say it once, but he dared to keep saying it. She was so angry that she tried to kill the snake several times, but was stopped by the little emerald green snake.

Later, the big flat neck was cultivated into a human form, the old snake father closed his eyes, thought for a while, and said deeply: "Your aptitude is the best in the mountains, why don't you call it Mancheng Jiao."

You know, every snake wants to cultivate into a dragon, but many snakes are just snakes all their lives, becoming a dragon is really a very good blessing.

At that time, Man Zhu was very envious when he heard it, and he didn't realize how much it hurts to add "Man" before the word "Cheng Jiao".

Big Flat Neck refused on the spot, and climbed up a mountain by himself, looking at the sea of ​​clouds in the sky and meditating all day long.

On that day, the emerald green snake that had not yet transformed was by his side, accompanying him from sunrise to sunset, and he saw the grief in his eyes growing stronger.

After the last ray of sky light faded with the fire clouds, he sighed softly: "When the sun sinks to the west mountain, isn't it the fall of light?"

"Also, still, and again..."

"What about the name Mu Shenshan?" He didn't wait for the Green Snake to finish speaking.

"No, not good, the implication...not good..."

"It's just remembering a guy, it doesn't matter whether it's good or bad."

"who is it?"

"You little stutterer, what are you doing with so many questions? Let's go!" He said, reaching out to connect the emerald green snake to his arm, jumping off the high rock, hiding all the sadness in his eyes, as if nothing happened left that hill.

Decades later, the emerald green snake also took a human form under the eyes of the old snake father.

The old snake father closed his eyes, raised his big snake head slightly, and said deeply: "You are gentle but sensitive and dull, and you will always have to change it in the future, why don't you call Man cheerful from now on, be cheerful OK, cheerful..."

"Old Snake Father, don't be cheerful, I will take it myself." Manzhu, who was still called Manshanhong at that time, reminded.

The old snake father opened his eyes, only to see the silent child writing three crooked words on the ground with his fingers.

——Yan Zhaomu.

He said that the sun will rise after sunset, and there will be countless days and nights in the future, so why keep thinking about the past.

In the countless years after that, the two guys quarreled and made peace from time to time. The half-mute who was not very talkative before became a small stutter who could talk a little bit during countless disputes.

Manzhu faintly felt that their relationship was unusual, but she never thought about it. It was not until she found this place three years ago that she learned from Huanxi that their relationship was really unusual.

The truth came very suddenly, but she was not surprised at all.

It's strange to say that the two people who had a sign more than 2000 years ago have never really been together. The relationship between them is the last piece of paper that is as thin as a cicada's wing, but no one has tried to break it.

Manzhu also gossiped out of curiosity, and Huanxi said that Zhaomu always felt that Mu Shenshan still had a white moonlight in his heart, so he rejected Mu Shenshan many times.

"Bai Yueguang, sister Manzhu, do you understand?"

"don't know."

"In Zhang Ailing's "Red Rose and White Rose", it is said that most men have two women in their hearts, that is, a red rose and a white rose. If you pick the white rose, over time, the white one will become a rose on your clothes. The red one will naturally become a cinnabar mole on the heart. But if the red one is picked off, the red one will become a smear of mosquito blood on the wall, and the white one will become the bright moonlight in front of the bed."

"..."

"To put it bluntly, what you can't get is always the best."

That's right, that's what Huanxi said at the time, she won't remember it wrong.

What kind of cinnabar mole and white moonlight, Manzhu really has a little impression, isn't the name Mu Shenshan also chosen for that guy?

It's just that for more than 2000 years, except for one name, Mu Shenshan has never mentioned that guy who doesn't know whether he is human or demon or dead or alive even once, and it doesn't look like someone he cares about very much.

Manzhu can be sure that Yan Zhaomu has liked Mu Shenshan for a long time, even when he was still in shape, but now it is Yan Zhaomu who is awkward and unwilling to accept.

I have to say that things like feelings are really complicated. A snake demon like her who is dedicated to cultivation and only wants to turn a snake into a dragon one day can't understand why the people who are deeply involved in it are struggling every day.

If you want her to say it, you must stay together if you like it, and break up if you don't like it. I really don't understand why there are situations where two people are clearly in love, but they still refuse to be together.

However, regardless of whether they are together or not, it is true that they are attracted to each other.

Manzhu pretended to test Lu Yudong several times unintentionally, and confirmed that Lu Yudong did not have any friends of the opposite sex in school, and there was a suitor once, and he was frightened away by Lu Yudong himself.

Knowing that there was nothing to worry about at the school, she began to guard against the male customers and goblins in the bar, and observed whether the eyes of those guys looked at Lu Yudong differently every day, for fear that someone who was not worthy of Lu Yudong would turn Lu Yudong away. I was coaxed away, and I was simply worried and troubled.

This time is good, she tosses and tosses openly and secretly, guarding against this and that, but in the end she is told not only to guard against men, but also to guard against women.

What a miscalculation, she knew that there were always examples around her, and she didn't know why she ignored such an important issue as "emotions regardless of gender".

Thinking about it carefully, Lu Yudong really cares about that little girl named Zhang Ziyun.

There are only two decorations on the bookcase at home, one is the four-leaf clover glass ball given to Lu Yudong by Zhang Ziyun in the second year of junior high school, and the other is the music box given to Lu Yudong by Zhang Ziyun in the third year of junior high school.

A week before the final exam, Lu Yudong brought back a corgi doll from school.

That corgi was also given to Lu Yudong by Zhang Ziyun, and Lu Yudong liked it so much that he even put it next to the little white dog he received on his birthday in the first year of junior high school, and picked it up and kneaded it a few times when he had something to do.

A while ago, Lu Yudong sent her text messages twice a day, all about Zhang Ziyun's situation, and he was even more worried when he came back every week.

Those two kids are really inseparable...

Is there really something between them?

The more Manzhu thought about it, the more she felt uncomfortable, but she couldn't tell what the wrong feeling was in her heart.

She told herself that if she could, she didn't want to interfere too much with Lu Yudong's emotional freedom.

Although she would feel that no matter who she looked at now, she was not worthy of Lu Yudong, but in a word of love, it still depends on whether Lu Yudong likes it or not.

If Lu Yudong really likes him, height, shortness, fatness, and thinness don't really matter, even if he has such a good personality, as long as he is not bad, he can be disciplined. She will naturally find a way to make the person Lu Yudong likes docile to Lu Yudong.

But humans can't, humans must not, no human can truly accompany Lu Yudong for life.

There is no need to wait for such a relationship to return after a hundred years, as long as the human skin is aging, the pain between each other will come naturally.

Unless, that human being can also live forever with a demon soul...

Manzhu said: "If she really likes a human being, can I catch a goblin and bond with that human being?"

"Are you crazy?" Mu Shenshan said in surprise, "All registered goblins are protected by the Goblin Administration. If you force them to do things you don't want to do, and it's such a serious matter as soul formation, you will definitely be punished. Order to expel those who hunted down! You don’t want to die, think about that child too.”

"So serious?" Manzhu was a little at a loss, she really didn't know enough about these things.

"What do you think?" Mu Shenshan couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "In the human world, this kind of thing is far too much compared to bandits robbing civilian women to be the wife of the village. Those who are forcibly married have a chance. You can still escape, but if you are forced to marry someone, you will die in this life."

As early as a long time ago, goblins and humans were doomed to fall in love.

Some goblins can't control the evil poison in their bodies, and if they combine with each other, they will kill their lovers and shorten their lives.

Some goblins have ways to control the poison in their bodies. Even so, they still cannot ignore the birth, old age, sickness and death of human beings.

If the society wants to progress, goblins will also invent. Gradually, there are big goblins trying to use their lifelong cultivation to activate evil magic, just to connect with the life and soul of the loved ones, so that they will never be separated from each other in the future.

That is the very first forbidden soul-binding technique, which needs to be activated with very strong spiritual power, and sacrifice a lifetime of cultivation and lifespan, just to stay together forever in the future.

It's just that most goblins are not satisfied with this, what they want is not the afterlife, and they don't care about the next life. How can we stay together?

So the unwilling people began to study more complex techniques, trying to achieve symbiosis between humans and demons.

After countless attempts and failures of the ancestors, a forbidden technique called "soul-bonding" appeared in the Three Realms. It is a forbidden technique called "soul-bonding", which can exchange the soul of this life, exchange pain, and live together and die together.

It doesn't need a high level of cultivation to activate it, and the key to the forbidden technique is only on the demon pill, and there is almost no need to pay a price.

Such a seemingly harmless forbidden technique quickly spread in the demon world, and even became a technique that most demon clans would understand, but they might not be willing to use in their entire lives.

Soul knot is not a child's play, once life and soul are connected, there is no solution until this life is exhausted.

The life of a demon is too long. If you really want to be bound together with a person for thousands of years forever, you will have to face too many unknowns.

When fate is tied by a forbidden technique, if there is an accident or betrayal, the people who once loved each other will die and go to hell together, let alone two people who have no feelings for each other?

In order to fulfill the eternity of two human beings, let a goblin sacrifice himself and marry a human he doesn't love... This kind of thing is absolutely impossible.

Thinking of this, Manzhu couldn't help frowning.

All of a sudden, Lu Yudong seemed to feel uncomfortable in his neck, frowned slightly, hummed in a low voice, rolled over gently in Manzhu's arms, rubbed his small head against her chest, and shrunk his neck again, as if Feeling a little cold.

Manzhu quickly pulled up the cloak covering Lu Yudong's body, and warmed Lu Yudong's neck with the soft plush edge, only then saw her frowning brows slightly relaxed.

"Suddenly I don't know how to guard her. I can't cut her off from other people, otherwise she won't be happy..." Manzhu said.

"Just keep an eye on it, if something is wrong, educate it in time, if you really can't stop it..."

"What should I do if I can't stop it?"

"If you can't stop it, let her go. Anyway, the emotional injury is not fatal. Just keep an eye on her so that she doesn't get overwhelmed."

Manzhu couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "I really shouldn't waste time listening to your nonsense."

"Actually, I haven't figured it out yet. What are you planning for being so good to her? You don't really plan for her to make money for you in the future, do you?"

"Won't that be great? Then I can sit at home and watch TV every day."

"But didn't you just want to cultivate to become a dragon?"

"I don't want to now." Manzhu said, "I just want to watch her grow up."

"It's weird, how many monsters have soul bonds with people when they have feelings, and after a long time, they have been tossed to the point where they don't even have feelings." Mu Shenshan couldn't help complaining, "It's good for you, you can get rid of feelings by forming a soul. It came out."

Manzhu looked down at Lu Yudong, seeing that she was sleeping soundly, she couldn't help raising her lips, and said with a smile, "You don't understand."

The soul-knot bears the pain together.

Lu Yudong was indeed seriously injured and dying, so why not Manzhu?

She was about to cross the catastrophe when she was chased and killed by an unreasonable demon catcher. She finally escaped with serious injuries, and was smashed to pieces by the sky thunder. The pain almost engraved into every inch of her blood.

And she brought such pain to a human child, and at the same time, she also endured the pain of that child.

She forgot how she got through it, even with the demonic power protecting her heart, she was in pain every day.

She knew that the child was the same, suffering so much that even if he was unconscious, his three souls were struggling desperately on the verge of life and death.

That was the first time she felt the same pain as a person so deeply.

From the moment they survived together, she made up her mind not to let that child get hurt easily again in her life.

Manzhu's initial thought was really simple, but because she was afraid of pain, she wanted to take good care of Lu Yudong.

But she gradually found that she began to like that child.

I like her little head that slightly drooped when she thought she made a mistake, and the timid but somewhat expectant look in her clear eyes.

I like her well-behaved and sensible appearance, and I even like her inadvertently showing a little presumptuousness when she is acting like a baby.

What a wonderful child, this is the one she watched growing up day by day, from a small one to such a slim one little by little.

If she doesn't treat her well, who will treat her well?

That night, Manzhu carried Lu Yudong home, and walked slowly upstairs, for fear of knocking the child.

Just when Manzhu gently put Lu Yudong back on the bed, drew the curtains, and was about to help Lu Yudong take off her coat, Lu Yudong suddenly groaned and reached out to hug her waist, lying and sitting in a strange posture. I don't want to go down.

Manzhu couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, and pinched a formula to dissolve the sound barrier around Lu Yudong's ear, and said softly: "When you get home, take off your coat before going to sleep, otherwise it will be cold when you wake up tomorrow."

Lu Yudong's right eye narrowed a slit, glanced at the dark house, then looked up at Manzhu, and said "Huh?" in a daze.

"I said I'm home, you take off your coat and sleep well." Manzhu said again.

"Hmm..." Lu Yudong nodded, let go of Manzhu obediently, closed his eyes and took off his clothes.

Afraid that she would catch a cold, Manzhu turned on the heater and blew it on Lu Yudong, then got up and went back to the door to put on slippers.

Just when Manzhu turned around and was about to help Lu Yudong take off his shoes, he saw that Lu Yudong had already kicked off the sneakers on his feet, and was only wearing a thin thermal underwear, with his legs tucked up, half wrapped in a blanket, sitting on the bed looking at her.

Although his eyes are still sleepy, his consciousness has awakened a lot.

Manzhu couldn't help shaking her head helplessly and smiled: "I carried you all the way up, but you didn't even open your eyes, why did you take off your clothes and wake yourself up?"

"Hee hee." Lu Yudong smiled, raised his head and asked, "Have you got any milk tonight?"

"Then I'll boil the water." Manzhu smiled, turned and walked into the kitchen to boil the water, then went to the bathroom to wash.

The lights in the room came on, and Lu Yudong sat there for a while. After fully waking up, he felt his mouth was dry and uncomfortable. The slippers were not by the bed, so he ran to the water dispenser with bare feet and drank half a glass of cold water.

The hot water boiled, and Manzhu rushed out from the bathroom, just in time to see Lu Yudong wearing unlined clothes and bare feet, standing by the water dispenser drinking cold water as if he was not afraid of the cold, he couldn't help frowning for a while, and softly reprimanded: "Don't drink cold water in winter." Bare feet shouldn't drink cold water."

Lu Yudong turned around and stuck out his tongue guiltily: "It's not cold, it's not cold at all." As he spoke, his body couldn't help shaking twice—it was cold.

Manzhu quickly drove her back to the bed, watched her drink the milk, then got up and said: "Since you're awake, put on your pajamas, wash and go to bed."

"Oh!" Lu Yudong quickly agreed.

She obediently changed into the cotton pajamas that Manzhu handed over, put on the cotton mop that Manzhu sent to the bed, ran into the bathroom with a few steps, and brought out the basins for washing from the bottom of the sink cabinet.

Lu Yudong quickly cleaned herself up. When she walked out of the bathroom, she turned off the light in the living room, ran back to the bed in a few strides in the dark, jumped onto the bed, and hugged the woman who had just taken off her coat. Manzhu who had time to lie down.

"Don't coax." Manzhu smiled and pulled her off her body, pressed her firmly with the quilt, then patted the quilt, and said, "Hurry up and go to sleep!"

But it was obvious that the two quilts couldn't hold Lu Yudong down at all. The next second, Manzhu saw Lu Yudong turn over, put his arms around her waist again, and murmured: "Sister is going to sleep too, don't sit still, cold!"

"I'm not afraid of the cold." Manzhu lay down, suddenly remembered something, looked sideways at Lu Yudong, and asked, "Do you take off your vest?"

Lu Yudong smiled and said in a low voice, "I didn't wear it at all."

"Why don't you wear it?" Manzhu asked.

"There are so many winter clothes, no one can see whether they are wearing them or not." Lu Yudong said, "Adding sponge makes it more uncomfortable to wear than before."

Manzhu recalled it for a while, then shook her head and said, "No, this will affect development." If I remember correctly, Huanxi said that girls must wear vests during their development, otherwise it will be somewhat affected.

Lu Yudong pouted, lowered his eyebrows, and muttered in a low voice: "Then I will wear it properly in the future."

Seeing Lu Yudong's aggrieved appearance, Manzhu couldn't help laughing for a moment, pulled her hand out of Lu Yudong's arms, held her shoulder with one hand, and touched her with the other: "Let me see, how old is it now?"

Lu Yudong blushed unconsciously, but he didn't dodge it, he only blinked nervously.

The place where girls are still developing is the most sensitive, and they will feel sore when bumped with a little force on weekdays.Through the cotton sweater, Manzhu's movements were very light, and she withdrew her hand in satisfaction after confirming that her girl was developing well.

Lu Yudong raised his eyes to look at Man Zhu, and asked a little shyly, "I... I, I am... still, okay?"

The little girl always likes to think about these things. She is not very old, but she has already begun to compare herself with others.

In the summer, she obviously felt that Zhang Ziyun was much older than her, which really made her very envious.

Now that it’s winter, I don’t look good when I wear thick clothes. I don’t have a contrast when I take a shower, so I don’t know if I secretly grow it longer...

"It's okay... right?" Manzhu said, and couldn't help laughing.

Hearing Manzhu's smile, Lu Yudong suddenly regretted asking such a stupid question, and his face turned redder instantly.

Fortunately, it was at night, and there was no light, so no one could see clearly, otherwise she would really have to hide herself under the covers.

She was ashamed for a long time, and finally frowned, and said unhappily: "Sister, you are laughing at me!"

"No."

"You obviously just laughed, and you laughed out loud!"

"I'm laughing..." Manzhu thought for a while, then pinched Lu Yudong's cheek, "I'm laughing at you for not learning well, and stuttering with your little master all day long."

"Are you really kidding me?" Lu Yudong asked with wide eyes.

"Of course not." Manzhu said, "Okay, okay, go to sleep."

"Hmm..." Lu Yudong hurriedly closed his eyes, pretending not to be embarrassed.

Seeing that Lu Yudong finally closed her eyes, Manzhu smiled and slightly straightened her sleeping position. Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay down, she saw Lu Yudong reach out to hug her arm again.

This little girl has really become more and more clingy recently.

In fact, it's good to be clinging to her like this, but I don't know...

When she grows up in the future, will she cling to others like this?

Thinking this way, Manzhu's eyes inadvertently passed over the lying Corgi behind Lu Yudong, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

What tablemate, what gift did you give.

It's ugly.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Honghong thought to herself: Why should the girl I watched growing up want to cling to others?
