[Comprehensive Ancient Sword] The Yearning Man

The night sky is blue, and the galaxy is far away.The branches and leaves cover the sight above the head, casting mottled moonlight, making the alley seem particularly quiet and deep.

Shen Mushen carried a dim yellow lamp and walked ahead, the shadow of the lamp was dim, covering her sleeves with a layer of gentle orange.The full moon was covered by the clouds, only showing a little light in the thin clouds.And the banyan tree in front of him seemed to be specially taken care of by the starlight, and he could clearly see that each leaf covered the top of his head layer by layer, covering a lot of the already sparse moonlight.

As she slowly approached the banyan tree, Qing Yaoyao became more and more confused. As she walked, she looked around and felt that the aura nearby became more and more obvious, but she couldn't tell what it was.

She glanced at the banyan tree not far away, then at Shen Mushen, her eyes wandering, and finally couldn't help but said: "If this big tree is really a tree demon... can you think of a way not to take it away?" " She sighed, and her tone was pleading: "It's not easy to turn plants into fine plants, and from what the scholar said, it doesn't seem to have harmed anyone."

Shen Mushen's expression flickered under the light, and Qing Yaoyao couldn't see her expression clearly, but her voice was also gentle, just with a bit of doubt: "In between Yaoyao's words, I am quite protective of these monsters. , but I don’t know why.”

Qing Yaoyao didn't intend to hide it, she pushed aside the branches and leaves blocking the way, and said naturally: "Because before I met you, my master and my friends were all goblins. But they are all very good goblins, never harming anyone "

Shen Mushen shook his head, his tone clearly sounded disbelieving: "Could it be that you are joking, you are clearly a human being, how could you be friends with a goblin?"

Qing Yaoyao tilted her head to look at her with her hands behind her back, and asked seriously: "Why can't people be friends with goblins?" She wanted to express something, but Shen Mushen motioned her to silence.Qing Yaoyao subconsciously followed her to look up, and the frosty moon had already poked out half of her head from behind the clouds, leaning inch by inch on the banyan tree.The shade of the trees is whirling, and the shadow of the moon is heavy.Until all the clouds covering the moonlight were blown away by the night wind, Yuehua reflected her eyes like an undercurrent surging river, and said in a low voice, "It will come out soon."

After waiting for a while, Qingyaoyao really heard the cry.Low and sharp, indistinct.

Even if she knows the spell, it doesn't feel good to hear faint cries in the middle of the night.Her scalp was numb from crying with that voice, and she couldn't help getting closer to Shen Mushen.

The voice seemed to be very far away, but it also seemed to be close to the ear, blowing with the cool night breeze, it really added a bit of cold illusion.

However, there was no murderous intent or resentment.Even the voice sounded like the helpless sob of a lost child.

Qing Yaoyao suppressed the horror in her heart, and said reluctantly: "Who, come out. Don't hide aside to scare people!"

The crying sound stopped for a moment, and then dropped something from the tree: "I want you to take care of it!"

It turned out to be a soft and pleasant loli voice.

Qing Yaoyao avoided it sideways, and the thing fluttered to the ground.It turned out to be a large piece of dead leaves.She looked down for a while, rubbed her eyes, and made sure she was right.Then he looked up along the branches.Then I saw a little girl in her teens sitting on the luxuriant and intertwined tree trunks.White clothes and shoes, with silver bells tied on them.There is a silver object hanging on the chest, which reflects the light with the moonlight.Presumably the light that the scholar said is this thing.

Right now, her eyes were red from crying.When facing Qing Yaoyao, he became dazed, just staring blankly without moving.

"..." I didn't expect it to be a little girl. Qing Yaoyao didn't expect it, and her fear was also suppressed because of surprise. She only regarded her as a child who died prematurely, and said suspiciously: "You are the one who cries every day. Well, why are you still here not to reincarnate."

The little girl turned her face away, folded her arms and turned her head, her voice was soft and cute, and she said, "Hmph, I'm not a ghost, it should be because you haven't reincarnated yet."

Qing Yaoyao was a little astonished, since she came down the mountain, out of a lot of people who regarded her as a goblin, she was the first one who thought she was a ghost, and she was actually a little girl.

The little girl crossed her arms and asked suspiciously: "Why don't you talk anymore, did I say something wrong?"

Qing Yaoyao looked at her meaningfully: "...No."

The little girl was proud, and she swayed her feet while pulling the leaves: "I'll just say, if you don't want to hide it from my eyes, why don't you go to reincarnate...Although you look a little strange, but ghosts stay in the world anyway... not too good."

Qing Yaoyao opened his eyes and spoke nonsense, obviously teasing the little girl, took a look at Shen Mushen, and sighed pretendingly: "I can't bear it."

Noticing her gaze and tone, Shen Mushen was helpless, even a little embarrassed, and shook his head: "Don't mess around."

The little girl also took a look at Shen Mushen, and nodded meaningfully: "But you have no results." The little girl shook her head and sighed, looked at her seriously, and said sincerely: "You are a ghost and she is a human, and You are all women, this is fruitless."

"..."

What the little girl said was too serious, and Qingyao was at a loss for words for a while.I didn't know how to answer for a long time.Seeing that the topic was about to be carried thousands of miles away by them, Shen Mushen had no choice but to take a step up and speak at the right time; "I heard that there is a strange light and the sound of a woman crying here at night, and I was entrusted by a young master to find out the reason for this place. I want to come to the girl As a person who knows, I want to ask the girl to give Mu Shen some advice. Please forgive me if I disturb you."

The little girl picked a leaf and tilted her head while tearing it up: "..." She obviously didn't understand.

Qing Yaoyao coughed, looked at the little girl's expression, and thoughtfully translated: "Why are you crying here every day, it's frightening."

The little girl lowered her head, clapped her hands to sprinkle the leaves on the ground, and looked into the distance with her chin propped up: "I... am waiting for someone."

Qing Yaoyao immediately asked: "Who?"

The little girl lowered her head and flipped through the leaves, obviously unwilling to answer.

Qing Yaoyao had no choice but to re-talk, discussing: "You will scare people here every day, consider changing to another place and cry."

The little girl shook her head and said firmly, "No, what should I do if he can't find me if I go far away."

Qing Yaoyao asked again casually: "Then who is he?"

The little girl looked at her with a frown, disgusted: "You are so talkative, like an old woman, I am so annoying, I told you that I don't want to answer anymore. You still ask."

Qing Yaoyao choked.

Shen Mushen twitched his sleeves, turned his body sideways, shook his head and sighed: "Since that's the case, I won't ask too many questions. The relationship between that man and the girl must be very deep."

The little girl nodded, as if recalling the past, showing a naive smile: "Well, I knew him since he was a child."

Shen Mushen said with a gentle smile: "I think that person is extremely important to the girl, and his status is special, so there is a reason for the girl not to tell, but I don't know how long the girl has been waiting here."

The little girl counted with her fingers: "Ten days."

"During the ten days, have you ever left?"

The little girl shook her head: "I'm afraid he won't be able to find him when he comes back after walking away."

Shen Mushen pondered for a moment before asking: "Have you heard any news during this period?"

The little girl was depressed, hanging her head, obviously not.

Shen Mushen said: "If there is no news after waiting for another ten and a half months, what should the girl do? Why don't you leave a mark here and go outside to inquire about the news."

The little girl hesitated for a moment, obviously moved by Shen Mushen.

Shen Mushen stopped talking, probably waiting for the little girl to make a decision, but his gaze never left the banyan tree for a moment.

After a moment of silence, the little girl finally said: "...what you said makes sense." She tilted her head and asked, "How about I go out and ask?"

Qing Yaoyao nodded, and nodded again: "Okay, I can go with you then."

The little girl looked at her with slight hesitation in her eyes, but in the end it gradually dissipated and jumped down from the tree.

Qing Yaoyao took a few steps forward, as if she wanted to reach out to help her, but something flashed in front of her eyes, Qing Yaoyao felt that she couldn't open her eyes, and when the brilliance fell, her face turned pale suddenly Bloodless.She pointed at the little girl tremblingly, her eyes terrified: "You, you——

Seemingly frightened by her surprisingly big reaction, the little girl was also stunned for a long time before reacting.

Qingyaoyao stayed with you for a long time, and finally couldn't say a word, followed by the sound of strings coming from the valley, and finally rolled his eyes and passed out.

The little girl looked at Shen Mushen standing in front of her, then at Qing Yaoyao who was lying on the ground, finally came to her senses, stomped her feet: "I know you are not a good person! Bah, it should be that you are not a good person!"

After listening to the little girl's evaluation, Shen Mushen was neither angry nor answered. He just walked a few steps to the edge of Qing Yaoyao, looked at her for a while, and hugged her up.

The little girl was bewitched by her, unable to move, and looked at her intently in anger.The expression was a bit puzzled, but after seeing her expression became more and more weird, she bit her lip and thought about something, and finally widened her eyes, looking at her in horror: "You——

After she finished speaking about the future, Shen Muchen waved his sleeves, and after the white clothes passed by, it condensed into a golden blade and flew towards the direction of the girl. His voice stopped abruptly, and even the person standing on the ground disappeared.Only an elliptical object remains, like a mirror.She walked a few steps, raised her hand, and the object fell into her hand.

She took the object and looked it over, with a smile on her lips, and sighed: "I heard that Qinhuai has a mirror, which can reflect the internal organs, but I don't think I have acquired spiritual consciousness now."
