Peach wood

Since it's an illusion, it doesn't matter if it's too much noise. A bad thought came into Shuhuai's heart, wishing he could draw out his sword immediately and turn the illusion constructed by Cunxue upside down.Cunxue smiled slightly, seeing his intention, but didn't point it out, she just put her palm on the forehead of the strange beast beside her, and gently stroked its long hair.Shu Huai took a double look at this strange beast, and recognized that it was the beast king who had seen both sides, but for some reason, the current beast king lacked some familiarity.

Time has passed, maybe this strange beast has undergone multiple transformations by Cunxue, and turned into another strange face.

Mo Yun holds a long knife in his hand, and his whole body is full of evil spirits. He is more aggressive than Shu Huai. This is the nature engraved in his bones and blood. Now this nature is stimulated by Cunxue. It is difficult to suppress it without going through a fight. of.Cunxue's eyes swept across Mo Yun's body, and during his faint glance, several sharp thorns suddenly appeared on the ground. If Mo Yun hadn't dodged quickly, he might have been pierced by now.

No matter how sanctimonious he pretends to be, the insidiousness deep in his heart cannot be changed.Shuhuai and Mo Yun looked at each other, and attacked Cunxue at the same time, not intending to give him another chance to sneak attack.But Cunxue is obviously confident, his condition has improved a lot compared to before, he didn't care about the opponent's attack at all, he only dexterously avoided the shadow of the blade, the strange beast also disappeared, Shuhuai didn't even see it clearly where.

In a blink of an eye, the snow in front of him disappeared. Shuhuai stopped his hands and looked around, but saw the green grass, the fragrance of flowers and the singing of birds. It was clearly the scenery of spring, and it seemed that he had stepped into another illusion.

People often encounter dreams within dreams, and there is another layer of illusion between illusions, which is normal.Shuhuai felt that this was nothing unusual, so he put away his sword, wanting to see what tricks Cunxue was up to.He couldn't sense any murderous intent from this illusion, but the purpose of Cunxue setting it up was definitely not to let Shuhuai see the scenery.

Having said that, but as we walked, even Shuhuai himself began to wonder if Cunxue was really that boring.This illusion is peaceful, quiet and comfortable, even a small hare pops out from the grass from time to time, rushing to people to look around.No matter how you look at it, it looks like there is no danger, but when it seems that there is no danger, it is easiest for people to relax their vigilance and get hit by one blow.Shuhuai didn't dare to relax at all, Taomu was still in the scabbard, but his hand was still clasped on the hilt, ready to draw the sword to meet the enemy if there was any change.

There was no abnormal movement, but a strange figure suddenly appeared. Shuhuai looked at the woman in the distance, and was stunned for a moment.The woman's clothes were plain and there were a few patches on it, she could not be a rich girl at first sight, but between her eyebrows and eyes, there was no deep sadness, only a little joy.She was walking on the trail among the grass, bending down from time to time to touch the wild flowers beside the road. The little rabbit jumped out and took the initiative to get close to this gentle human being.

She couldn't see Shuhuai at all, and walked towards here on her own, Shuhuai hurriedly avoided, found a thick and big tree nearby, jumped up and hid in the crown of the tree.Thanks to the naturally dense canopy, it provided him with a hiding place so that he would not be spotted by the other party at a glance.

The woman's attention is all on the ground, and Shuhuai is sure that she will not look up. There are so many new things on the ground that are enough to dazzle her, and she can't pay attention to other things. They disturb her mind and attract her attention. Hiding in the dark, there won't be anything worth seeing for her.Shu Huai relaxed a little, but his eyes were still staring at the woman's face. If Mo Yun was beside him at the moment and saw his expression, he would definitely become jealous again and set off a sea of ​​jealousy.

Cunxue deliberately separated the two of them, and he also knows how to break them one by one. I hope that these days will not make Mo Yun lazy, and he can't even deal with an illusion.Shuhuai recited a sentence for Mo Yun in his heart, "seek more blessings", and wiped the fine sweat on the tip of his nose that he didn't know when he was exposed to the sun. Half a point, as usual, like a huge fireball.

Before she knew it, the woman had already walked under the tree. She really didn't look up, but just found a clean place to rest under the tree.In fact, the distance between Shuhuai and her is not too far, the tree is not very tall at all, if the woman raises her head slightly, she can immediately find Shuhuai sitting on the branch.But Shuhuai is very at ease now, he sat there quietly, lowered his eyes to look at the woman under the tree, the fine lines at the corners of the other's eyes showed that she was no longer young, what is so special about such a woman?

Ordinary life is short, whether it is a hero or a beauty, there will be a day of twilight. Shuhuai sometimes thinks, for them, is that the end of the road?The most difficult thing for people to accept is undoubtedly death. Death means that a soul’s journey in the world has come to an end. No matter whether the process is sweet or bitter, long or short, this life is over like this. Escape, no matter how sad others are, it is useless. Heroes and beauties are mortals, and they will also grow old.

Just like the woman sitting under the tree now, she, like others of her kind, is slowly getting old, and beside her, it seems that no one is growing old with her.

Most cheerful people love singing, and Shuhuai heard a woman humming softly, it was a familiar tune from her hometown.The singing suddenly entered Shuhuai's ears, arousing a bit of nostalgia and reminiscence, as if time and space intersected, and he returned to the Northland 800 years ago, instead of sinking into the enemy at the junction of the North and the South. constructed illusion.

But if he wanted to use it to disturb his mind, Cunxue made a big mistake.As soon as Shuhuai heard her voice, he felt sad, and the sadder he became, the more sober he became.The old scars in my heart were torn open again, and there was no room for confusion or hesitation.

No matter how resembling this woman is, she is just a puppet, and no matter how resembling her singing is, she is not singing for him. Some things have long been lost, some people have died long ago, and if he sees them, there is no possibility of redemption.

Just thinking like this, the woman under the tree suddenly raised her head and met Shuhuai's gaze.Shuhuai's heart almost skipped a beat, he just stared at her eyes in a trance.The eyes of ordinary people are naturally ordinary, but no matter what, those eyes are the gateway to the heart, and the eyes of a person with a pure mind are also beautiful. Shuhuai is suddenly immersed in the ordinary beauty, unable to extricate himself.

The other party just smiled at him without saying a word, and there was a little cunning in his expression, as if he had seen through his tricks hidden in the tree long ago.

He used to be like this when he was a child. When the other party was anxiously looking for her, he suddenly emerged from the canopy of the tree, with messy hair and a leaf or two, and smiled facelessly at her.As long as he smiles, the anxiety on the other person's face will turn into joy, and those eyes will also be bent, like a hooked moon in the sky.

It's just that now, none of them are the people they were back then, and none of them are as young as they used to be.Shuhuai said that his life span is endless, and time cannot change his appearance, but his heart is already old, and seeing the old people and the old scenery, only sighs and emotions are left.The woman who had been eroded by wind and frost looked at Shuhuai, and Shuhuai also looked at her, and then he heard the other party speak to him for the first time: "You are going to grow old too."

Ever since he stepped into the illusion, Shuhuai hadn't expected the other party to speak, but he was a little surprised when he heard this.In fact, she shouldn't be the one who said this, but because she is just a fake in front of her eyes, Shuhuai tolerates her pretending not to be.He replied extremely calmly: "You are the same, people will grow old."

Such an inappropriate sentence came out of the impostor's mouth, it seemed that Cunxue misunderstood the relationship between them.Shu Huai has never been tempted by a woman, let alone this one in front of him. His affection has been frozen for a long time, and when it was melted, it was all poured into Mo Yun. In his opinion, this kind of thing cannot be easily Give, as long as you give, you must give it to the only person.

But Mo Yun was still stupid, didn't understand his intentions, and still suspected that there was some ulterior relationship between him and this half-old woman.In fact, there is a little relationship, but it is not ulterior. Shuhuai just doesn't want him to know the identity of this woman. If he knows, it will cause a new round of trouble.She had finally reincarnated, and her life was still so short, Shuhuai absolutely refused to interfere with her life and make her deviate from the normal track.He didn't want to disturb him, so he stood a little far away, as long as he could take a look at her, just a look at her was enough.

Obsession is a terrible thing. Shuhuai thinks he also has obsession, but it is not as sick as Fengyi.Fortunately, he can see it openly, otherwise he would not be alone in trouble, and even the woman in front of him, as well as many people, gods, demons and ghosts he knew, would be implicated by him and suffer together.

Creatures will never be alone, they will always be inextricably linked with other beings, perhaps far or near, but they must exist.

Just like this woman and Shuhuai, the subtle connection between them, even after hundreds of years, is still affecting Shuhuai.

She has been reincarnated countless times, but in the bottom of Shuhuai's heart, she still hides her former appearance.It is she humming softly, she is walking on the path, she is young and beautiful, and she is dying early.Whether that life was long or short, whether it was bitter or sweet, she has gone through so many times, she has long since forgotten everything, but Shuhuai still remembers it.

As long as Shuhuai can remember, they cannot become strangers.Passing by, maybe also unable to speak, but the look in that moment's eyes betrayed everything hidden in Shuhuai's heart.It's as if they are looking at each other now, Shuhuai just uttered a perfunctory sentence, but the dark tide surged in his eyes, vaguely revealing something.

It's a pity that this counterfeit is not real after all, she misunderstood Shuhuai's eyes again, but Shuhuai saw her gently tugging at the corner of her mouth, her face was still gentle, but the words in her mouth made people can't bear to listen carefully.

"What's so good about that man? Are you going to forget me?" The counterfeit asked.

Shuhuai couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't know what to do, he didn't mind looking at the fake face and thinking of the real her, but that didn't mean he was willing to listen to a fake talking nonsense with his familiar face.He sighed, the hand that had been clasped on the hilt of the sword finally moved, he drew the sword violently, tearing the illusion severely, the woman's voice and smile shattered into bubbles before his eyes, Haruhi was completely burned by the sudden fire , and his expression did not relax in the slightest.

Standing in the middle of the wildfire with his sword in hand, he looked coldly at the god standing in front of him.

"You pretend too badly. It seems that you don't know me well enough." Shuhuai said, "She is not my old lover, but an old acquaintance. You think too much about me, but you don't know the three worlds. Among them, I am afraid that you are the only one who is so sentimental."

"I just misunderstood you once. As for mocking me like this? I have always been cold-hearted, and you are the only one who thinks I'm promiscuous." Cunxue didn't refute the fact that he didn't understand Shuhuai enough, but Shuhuai accused him Amorous, but he has something to say.This is indeed Shuhuai's inappropriate wording, Cunxue is ruthless at all, no fairy or demon can be worth the position of a heavenly emperor in front of him.

But on the other hand, there is nothing wrong with Shuhuai saying that he is promiscuous.Passionate and ruthless, sometimes there is no difference.The most passionate are the most ruthless, their emotions are too much, everyone can get a share, of course there is nothing precious at all, having it is the same as not having it; the most ruthless is also the most sentimental, they are not easily tempted, there is only one person To enjoy a special pet, you will definitely feel that you are held in the palm of your hand. There is a big difference between having it and not having it.Shuhuai thinks that Cunxue's emotions are also very rich, he doesn't use those emotions on living beings, his emotions are distributed to the position of Emperor of Heaven, and to various authorities in the Three Realms.Thinking about it this way, Shuhuai vaguely felt a little funny, this day God was also in love, he just didn't know the truth.

"What are you laughing at?" Cunxue asked, "It turns out that I really don't understand you. What strange thing did I say that made you laugh?"

"Stop talking nonsense." Shu Huai saw that he had no intention of fighting and was too lazy to fight him, "Where is Mo Yun?"

"Compared to you, it's a little worse. He's still too soft-hearted and can't be as ruthless as you." Cunxue pinched her fingers and pretended to count, as if she was really counting when Mo Yun would be able to emerge from the illusion. get away.

He can see the fragility of people's heart, and catch it to trap people in the net. This trick doesn't work for Shu Huai, but it might work for Mo Yun.Shuhuai didn't know what Mo Yun saw in the illusion, maybe it was his parents, or the endless mountains of the Yaozu.Thinking about how he held back for a long time, he wanted to find an opponent to have a hearty fight, and the strange beast that Cunxue suddenly disappeared before, maybe he was having a good fight with the beast king now.

Facing Cunxue, Shuhuai has always been in a tense posture, even if he relaxes a little, he is determined not to return the sword to the sheath.Holding the sword like this, he stared straight at Cunxue. After a long time, a smile appeared on his face: "Why do I find it so strange that you call him a cruel and merciless person? So in your eyes, there is still Someone more vicious than yourself exists?"

"Even the old love can be cut off with your hands. It shows that you are cruel to yourself. You are the most vicious person in the world." Cunxue took half a step back, as if unwilling to get too close to him.It was so strange that I was able to scare the head of the god back half a step. Shuhuai felt amused, and took a big step forward on purpose, and said: "I told you, that's not the old lover, you Don't talk nonsense anymore. If my little brat hears what you say, he will inevitably misunderstand, and then I will definitely not let you go. "

"You're really weird. You're not an old lover, but you still remember her so well." Cunxue frowned. He didn't back away this time, but after a while, he suddenly dodged to the side.

The vast white snow behind him was suddenly torn open a crack, and the howling wind blew out from the crack, tearing the hem of his clothes like a sharp knife.The strong wind came in front of Shuhuai, but it turned into a gentle wind, Shuhuai stood there with downcast eyes, without moving a bit.

"You're slow." Shuhuai said, "I've been waiting for you for a while, what exactly is holding you back?"

"It's slow, but seeing that kind of situation, it's normal for me to be slow." Mo Yun was very gentle when he answered Shuhuai's question, not as gentle as the one Cunxue had seen him before. Xue's eyes returned to the familiar ferocity, and Cun Xue said in his heart that this boy was really a wolf like his father, looking at his eyes, he might be bitten to death on the spot.

Mo Yun's knife was still dripping with blood, Shu Huai glanced roughly and saw that there was a scratch on the back of his hand, he knew in his heart that the previous guess was correct, Mo Yun had encountered the Beast King, and he probably killed dead each other.

"What did you see?" Cunxue drew his sword to hold Mo Yun, knowingly asked, "What kind of him did you see? Who did you kill?"

"I killed that cat of yours!" Mo Yun seemed to have been greatly stimulated, and was furious at Cunxue's simple three-sentence question. Huai was shocked, and quickly stepped forward to grab his shoulders, pushing him back: "I'll do it!"

"You always want to protect him, can you protect him forever?" Cunxue sneered, "You put away the stove, but you didn't take away the jade pendant, why didn't you put it away?"

"Why are you crazy?" Shuhuai scolded, "What I put away, what I bring, has nothing to do with you!"

Cunxue just looked at him, with sarcasm in his eyes: "You will regret it when you understand what kind of secret is hidden in that piece of jade."

In Shuhuai's life, the word "regret" was almost never used. He only said that Cunxue was going crazy again, and was about to stab him with a sword to make him shut up that annoying mouth, but he heard the wind in his ears, Mo Yun's aura suddenly fluctuated violently, as if he was suffering from pain in his heart.

Shu Huai was taken aback.

In the illusion, what exactly did he see happen?

Cunxue asked him who he had killed, and it was definitely not the beast king.

The author has something to say: Don't sleep in the cage, it is easy to have nightmares and ghosts to press the bed.

Today, I miss my mother very much in the school dormitory...
