Follow the shadow

When Su Yun woke up, it was already a few days later. Facing the empty room, she tried her best to hug her knees and curled up in a corner. The shadow created by the dream made him afraid of the dark and afraid of being touched.

Xu Yang never came to bother him. Under the influence of divine power, he lost his sense of hunger, and the passage of time was not so obvious.

The sleepless nights almost exhausted his remaining energy. He got up on hands and feet, like a degenerated beast, opened the door a crack, and peeked at the only exit.

If he just crawled over slowly like this, without disturbing everything, he would be free...

Looking at the gradually shortening distance, the sky full of talismans wrapped around his limbs again.Xu Yang stood behind him expressionlessly, wishing he couldn't even feel his breathing and heartbeat.

His appearance seemed to confirm a certain guess of Su Yun. He covered up a miserable smile at the corner of his mouth, his body gradually relaxed, and his chaotic eyes were like glass beads that had lost their souls.

That day Xu Yang turned into a long snake and entangled Su Yun to save him from the tragedy of falling into a meat pie. After being rescued, Qi Yue and his wife had already left, but Su Yun fell into a coma inexplicably. Let him make another plan.

"If you could take care of yourself, I wouldn't treat you like this at all." Looking at Su Yun who was entangled in the talisman paper and hanging in the air, Xu Yang looked at him indifferently and said, "But in the short time you lived 20 years, will you really survive? During the years I met you, you have suffered thousands of injuries, 36 serious injuries, and at least nine rounds of hell...Zicheng, what's wrong with you?"

Su Yun didn't recover.

Xu Yang stepped forward to support his shoulders, Su Yun suddenly opened his eyes wide, "Don't..." He struggled violently, trembling even at the end of his voice.

Xu Yang's hands paused, and he asked softly, "Then tell me what's wrong with you?" Seeing that Su Yun was about to remain silent again, Xu Yang went around behind him and hugged him directly.

Su Yun struggled violently.The constantly superimposed memories were like sharp knives, cutting his soul.

He kept telling himself that the person hugging him was Xu Yang, but he couldn't control himself, he couldn't get out of that memory...

Everything in the dream encircled his body like a huge net and kept tightening.Su Yun's face was pale, her breathing was disordered and her heart beat rapidly.He closed his eyes, his trembling eyelashes were like butterflies passing away in the wind, leaving only the miserable beauty.

Seeing Su Yun's approaching pale face, Xu Yang guessed the scene in the dream countless times, approaching the truth again and again, but he dared not face it.

"Zicheng... open your eyes and see who I am?" Xu Yang softly comforted him as he let go of the bondage, "I'm Xu Qingke, I won't hurt you..."

What exactly are you dreaming about?Could it be that the last seal was broken by Qi Yue?

Had to face the only possibility.The hand supporting Su Yun was released suddenly, and Xu Yang retreated helplessly. He wanted to seal the memory again several times, but he couldn't do it.

Losing the last warmth, Su Yun's consciousness seemed to sink into the deep sea, his nose was sore, he didn't know who was sad, his mind was always filled with the invisible room, the panting of livestock and the cold objects buried in his body...

There was a man who was always standing where he couldn't see, whipping his body with a whip.Whoever he is thinking of will only take sharp needles and tubes to drain what little blood he has left.

Under the city wall outside the imperial palace, the bones of the soldiers are not yet cold, but he has handed over the entire dynasty to others...

Xu Yang felt that something was wrong with Su Yun, but it was too late to dodge.Su Yun grabbed his neck with one hand and pushed him to the ground.

Su Yun's eyes were red, even though her body was sealed with most of her spiritual power, she still blew up all the fragile objects in the house when her power went berserk.

Xu Yang couldn't breathe because he was holding his neck, and he held Su Yun's wrist with his other hand, "Zicheng..."

"What's the matter?" Su Yun was not completely unconscious, he smiled evilly, his beautiful pupils were covered with frost, "You said you could give me your life, now I'm here to ask for it, why don't you give it again? "

Xu Yang looked at him, as if he sighed lightly, but also as if he didn't. "My life is for Zicheng, not for your evil thoughts."

Su Yun suddenly smiled miserably, he let go of Xu Yang, and at some point there was a knife in his hand, the blade cut across his neck, and the bloodstains appeared so abrupt on the white neck.

The talisman rushed out from the magic circle under his feet and entangled Su Yun's limbs. Xu Yang forcibly snatched the knife from his hand.

"Xu Qingke...that's why you treat a person separately..." Su Yun sighed softly, his voice was slightly hoarse due to the wound on his neck, "Emperor Jingning is dead, there will never be such a person in this world again." A person exists. You once asked me if I liked you, but now I still don’t know, I just laughed that I lost my whole life in your hands... In the end, I didn’t even have the right to life and death..."

The resolute figure of that person repeatedly appeared in his mind, overlapping with the person in front of him, but he looked insanely, who is he?Who does he really like?Did that person really like him...

Everything now is nothing but his own fault.

He suddenly choked out a mouthful of blood, but was wrapped in a warmer and more powerful force.Su Yun snapped back to her senses, only to see that Xu Yang's body was changing rapidly.

His short hair grew rapidly, his pupils turned amber, and a pattern dotted the corners of his eyes... He walked over slowly, and the divine power condensed in his palm healed his wounds.

"Xu Qingke..." Su Yun lowered his head, his chaotic brain seemed to be trapped in cotton, and he had nowhere to focus.

"The person you love is dethroned, lives with a beast, is not a human being other than seeing you... Can't you really see? You're just tired of playing, feeling dirty... and... have no excuses to throw it away ..."

Su Yun's voice stopped, and she fell into Xu Yang's arms.Xu Yang just stood there stiffly, looking helplessly at the mess in the room...

Su Yun couldn't remember what happened after that day. The door of the room where Ning Sheng lived was wide open, and there was still lukewarm dinner on the long table in the kitchen.

His consciousness was not clear all the time, and he wanted to go out to find someone but was stopped by Xu Yang. Xu Yang pushed him back into the room and locked him up without talking to him at all.

Su Yun curled up in a corner by herself, her drowsy brain was a magnificent palace for a while, and the cold and dead darkness for a while...

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, King Qi Xiang is approaching the city. Run quickly!" Xie Jingtao, soaked in blood, grabbed Su Yun's hand regardless of the etiquette of the emperor and ministers, and wanted to run out.

Su Yun broke free from his hands, and calmly looked at the young soldiers behind him, "Go and call all the living soldiers, I have something to say."

"His Majesty!"

Su Yun turned her back and ignored him, "Is it useless if the country will perish?"

Xie Jingtao wanted to persuade him again, but Bai Yang came quickly to kneel and salute, "Your Majesty, there are still a thousand imperial guards in the palace, and all the surviving people have evacuated."

"Where are the generals?"

The soldiers who came with Bai Yang knelt on the ground one after another, "The minister is here!"

Su Yun looked down at all the soldiers, "My mother is not a human being, and you may have heard of it. My mother passed away and gave me a scroll. If you enter, you can escape from the world. Now there is no way to retreat. Half of the people are willing to open the scroll with their own lives?"

Not to be shocked, Su Yun continued, "The petitioner takes a step forward."

"Your Majesty, what about you?" Bai Yang asked softly.

"Opening this volume requires one person to take the lead, and I will do it." Su Yun said calmly without looking at him.

"If there is such a strange thing in the world, why does His Majesty evacuate the people in an emergency? If half of the people's lives are needed to open the book, it is better to say that it is an opening... Your Majesty is indeed a clever liar..."

Su Yun was startled, "You..." Before Bai Yang could stop, Xie Jingtao knocked him unconscious with a knife.

In the chaos, he seemed to hear Bai Yang's voice, "Your Majesty, "The world is so big that you can settle down anywhere, and I hope your Majesty will not be paranoid and will not disappoint our soldiers...with good intentions..."

I don't know where I am, I don't know what world it is.Looking up, the stars are spinning, and the boat carrying the body is spinning in the water.

He opened his eyes, watching the rays of firefly converging in the darkness, outlining the appearance of a person.The man had willow eyebrows and thin lips, and his smile was like a spring breeze.

"Baiyang!"

"Your Majesty, there are countless capable people in the world, why should you sacrifice yourself for him?" Bai Yang forced Su Yun's words.

Su Yun was furious, but she was powerless when she wanted to get up.

Bai Yang said softly, "Your Majesty, there is always a banquet in the world. This is true for ordinary people, and it is also true for noble people like you. The world doesn't know what you give up, what you are tired of, what you are sad, and what you have lost, but you have never taken the burden. Jiang Shan, now half of the brothers have escaped safely, and the criminals have sacrificed their lives, and now I am using my last little effort to plead guilty to you."

"You bastard! Bai Yang, you're going to die if you deceive the king!!!" Su Yun roared, Bai Yang just smiled and accepted, his gradually blurred figure turned into a gust of wind, pushing the boat towards the distance...
