Ring

Jiang Zeyue stared blankly at Guzhu Qin, but didn't speak.She looked at him, as if trying to search for information about this person in her mind - her memory was too messy, some were true, some were false, and some she didn't know were true or false.

It's just that the body's response is always more honest than the brain's.Tears flowed down the bloody cheeks, dripping with blood.

Master Qin Gu stretched out his hand to wipe away her tears, but his white fingers passed straight across her cheeks.Seeing him stretching out his hand, Jiang Zeyue instinctively wanted to hold it, but her charred finger bones seemed to be caught in the air——Zhu Zizheng was broken, and it was not easy for him to condense into shape.The current him is just an illusory mist; even a gust of wind can destroy his existence.

"My real body was damaged by a long black knife, and then buried under the ruins of the Old Summer Palace all year round." Master Qin Gu whispered, "Thank you two for bringing my real body out of there."

Seeing Wei Shenzhi's surprised expression, the corners of Master Qin Gu's lips slightly raised: "Is it surprising? His Majesty loves the scenery of the Central Plains. I//I am fascinated by him every day, so naturally I can use simple text communication."

"..." Wei Shenzhi really didn't expect that one day he would have a face-to-face conversation with the monster in "A Hundred Weapons in Vain Bag". This feeling is comparable to chatting with the monsters in "Shan Hai Jing".He felt that he should get excited, but this scene... Cough, forget it.

"As you can see, Miss Jiang Ze became like this after she passed away in the Old Summer Palace." Wei Shenzhi said, "My grandmother Wei Siyun sealed her in a spell, so that one day she could transcend her soul and let her be saved." She was relieved from a century of pain."

After a pause, he continued: "Only you can help me with this. Master Qin Gu, please."

"Everything started because of me." Qin Guzhu seemed to show a wry smile.He reached out to touch Jiang Zeyue's cheek—unsurprisingly, his fingers passed through her body again.

Yet he smiled.The curvature of the corners of the eyes and brows slowed down, and even the sadness and despair in the eyes disappeared together, like a icy lake that was gradually thawed by the spring breeze, with sparkling waves.

"moon."

She stared at him blankly.Tears welled up in big drops, passing through Master Qin Gu's fingers.It's just that her mind is still hazy, as if in a fog.

"You... who are you..."

she murmured.Master Qin Gu put his other hand on her side face, and put his forehead on Jiang Zeyue's.His movements are intimate, as if he is holding a beautiful and innocent girl in his arms.He put a kiss on her forehead, held her in his arms, and whispered in her ear:

"Don't forget this time, Yue." He said, "My name is Tsukishi Tsukito."

"Moon kite..."

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Zeyue's appearance changed strangely.Her hair, which was disheveled like withered grass, gradually turned into smooth and glorious hair, and the missing piece of her jaw also recovered.After the blood all over her body disappeared, a beautiful woman stood in front of them.

Wei Shenzhi immediately thought of Shuiyue Lanze—that Dongying witch who seemed to be exiled in the sea of ​​fire, that onmyoji who was dressed in white and spotless in the battlefield of fighting.Her name is like her person, whether she is in the mountains of swords and fires, or at the end of the mountain, she is always calm and dignified, and cuts a way out with the sword in her hand.

And Jiang Zeyue is like this.Gradually, she turned into the appearance that appeared in his dream that day.Her face is still young and beautiful, only her long snow-white hair shows that she has wandered in this miserable world - she does not know her parents, and only enjoys 20 years of life with her master.

Her birth was doomed to be a tragedy.And now...it was time for her to go back.

"Master..."

She closed her eyes, and buried her side face on Master Qin's neck.She tried to hug him back, but her fingers ran through his body.Jiang Zeyue sobbed softly, and carefully wrapped his arms around the opponent's spirit body.Even though the temperature in her arms was so cold, it was no different from a mass of empty air....

"I finally... ah... finally..."

Her tears ran through his body and fell to the ground.

"Finally...it's time for you..."

"I'm sorry, Yue." Master Qin gently brushed her hair, and whispered in her ear, "Yue, it's because I didn't consider your feelings... I've always... sorry for you."

Jiang Zeyue shook her head vigorously.She took a step back slightly, looking at his face almost obsessively.It was an extremely beautiful face, so beautiful that it was impossible to believe that he was human—in fact, he was not.He is Emperor Jingxing's Aiqin, and Fusangshen who built the Zizheng.And myself...

...just a person who is different from him.

She gave a wry smile, reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and finally set her eyes on Wei Shenzhi and Edgar: "I'm sorry, I lost my composure."

Her voice is really nice, like spring water from a mountain stream.Wei Shenzhi said with emotion, "It doesn't matter."

"here it is……"

"This is the residence of my grandmother Wei Siyun." Wei Shenzhi said, "Miss Jiang Ze, do you still remember Wei Siyun?"

"Of course I remember, she is me..." She stopped suddenly, smiled and looked at Wei Shenzhi, and said, "I still remember that day that I saved your life. You will surpass Wei Shenzhi one day. Your grandmother is better than her."

"Miss Jiang Ze, Lord Qin Gu." It was Edgar who spoke, "The tragedy of the two of you, after all, happened because of my Bathory family. Natalie Neveu stole the black long knife without authorization, and left the blood clan without permission. Following the French Expeditionary Force to go to the Far East to burn, kill and loot. We owe you too much, if you want revenge now, I will follow suit."

"What did he say?" Master Qin Gu asked Jiang Zeyue.

"He said that the blood race is very sorry for us. He is willing to pay any price." Jiang Zeyue smiled, "But, there is a saying in the Central Plains, when is the time to repay the injustice. My long-cherished wish is to meet with the master again. As for Master... I swore to kill all the blood races, it was because I thought the master was dead. But although the master is weak now, he is safe after all, and I... have no reason to retaliate."

Wei Shenzhi looked at the two in astonishment: "You..." Are you planning to let go of your hatred like this?

"The time of reincarnation is coming, I should go." Jiang Zeyue looked at Wei Shenzhi with a smile, "After I say goodbye to your grandmother, maybe I can reincarnate with peace of mind."

"Yue?" Master Qin Gu looked at her in surprise, "Aren't you going with me?"

Jiang Zeyue turned to look at him.Shaking his head, he smiled.Then, her gaze passed over his shoulder and fell on a place not far behind him.She said softly: "Si Yun, you are here."

The other three turned their heads away, only to see the white-haired Taoist had arrived at some time.Wei Siyun looked at her with complicated eyes, and said, "Are you leaving now?"

Jiang Zeyue tilted her head and smiled slightly: "Are you trying to keep me?"

As soon as the words came out, Wei Siyun was taken aback, but he didn't refute.

"My situation, I know very well. I may still be able to wander in this world for a while." Jiang Zeyue said, "And you... the soul of Wei Shenzhi who was forced to arrest that day still has a few years of life left. ?”

"Grandma?!" Wei Shenzhi looked over in astonishment, "Why didn't you tell me?!!"

Wei Siyun didn't speak.She neither answered Jiang Zeyue's inquiry nor Wei Shenzhi's questioning.

Jiang Zeyue laughed.Under Qin Guzhu's suspicious gaze, she gently pushed away the man beside her, and walked slowly towards Wei Siyun.Her steps were light and vain, as if they were nothing but condensed luster.In the end, she stood beside Wei Siyun and gently held her shoulder.

"Si Yun." She said, the tiredness that could not be concealed in her words, but with a sense of relief, "Take me away."

"Just like decades ago...rescue me from the chaos. You are always with me, no matter how horrible I describe it, no matter how many times I hurt you..."

"Yue." Qin Guzhu's voice sounded from behind her, with no sadness or joy, "Aren't you leaving with me?"

Apart from being shocked, Wei Siyun's eyes also contained the same question.Jiang Zeyue just shook his head, his voice was soft and soft, as if it came from a dream.

"Si Yun has been with me for 73 years and three months."

It wasn't just Wei Shenzhi who was shocked - he never thought that his grandmother would have such a long bond with Jiang Zeyue; and Wei Siyun also opened his eyes wide - she didn't expect that Jiang Zeyue always remembered their company days, even when she was delirious...

"I will spend the rest of my life with her to grow old together, die together, and... enter reincarnation together."

Master Qin Gu looked at her with a smile in his voice: "Among me and her, did you choose her?"

Jiang Zeyue turned around.Facing Lord Qin Gu, she knelt down on both knees and solemnly kowtowed three times: "Over the years, except for the moments when I was unconscious, I have never forgotten the teachings of Master. You once taught me that instead of being too ambitious, I should pursue a Life is not your own goal, it is better to focus on the present and live the life you want to live.”

Master Qin Gu closed his eyes, and a self-deprecating arc traced the corner of his lips: "That's what I always wanted to do, but I couldn't do it."

"This apprentice is unfilial, so I bid farewell to Master." Jiang Zeyue said brightly, "I hope that Master can finally fulfill his long-cherished wish and find that...your beloved...His Majesty the Emperor."

When she said the last few words, her voice was already a little choked up, and it was probably still a little hard to let go.As if to hide her emotions, she stood up, covered her eyes with her hands, and looked at Wei Shenzhi and Edgar with a forced smile:

"Jiang Zeyue has an unfeeling request—I also ask you to repair the body of the Zhuzi Zheng. The body of the Zhuzi Zheng was split in two by a long black knife, so... maybe only you can repair it."

Wei Shenzhi glanced at Edgar, nodded and said, "We will do our best."
