[Sword Three] Mountain Ghost Ballad
Chapter 93 The Countdown to the End Part 4
"Who are you……"
When Mo Yu subconsciously asked this sentence, he felt a little uneasy, thinking that what he was worried about had come true.
But before he had any thoughts, he found that there seemed to be something wrong with the cold-faced person on the opposite side. Not only did he look at him with a little doubt, but the aura emitted by the whole person became different—— If I had to describe Mo Yu's feelings at this time, it was probably watching a cold Tianshan snow leopard suddenly turn into a domesticated little cat...
I saw "Little Cat" looking down, staring at the bell that fell on the ground for a long time, then looked up at him again, couldn't help scratching his cheek with his fingers, and said thoughtfully: "It's me!" The bell is right, it doesn't look fake..."
Although it was whispered, Mo Yu could hear clearly.
His hand hanging by his side trembled, and his face suddenly became tense. He clearly had a guess in his heart, but he stopped where he was and dared not go forward, lest the greater the hope, the deeper the disappointment in the end.
The person opposite did not understand Mo Yu's complicated mood at this time, and saw her frowning, standing there and staring at Mo Yu for a long while, then shook her head seriously and said: "No, why is Xiao Yu so dumb? The face is so stiff, it really is an illusion, I have to find a way to get out of this place..."
While talking to herself, she walked towards Mo Yu's direction. When she was only a few steps away from Mo Yu, she gave him a reluctant look, and then she looked away and continued to move forward. Walking, but was suddenly blocked by a hand, and crashed into a slightly cool embrace in the next second.
Before she could struggle, a sentence came from the top of her head, vaguely gnashing her teeth: "Good job, Jiang Miao, I have practiced Yin Yang for nearly twenty years, but now I can't even tell whether the person in front of me is real or not." Already!"
Mo Yu's voice was mixed with a little anger, but also a hint of rejoicing. Hearing it in Miao's ears, her expression froze for a moment, but she immediately reacted, stretched out her hand to grab the other's skirt, and said happily: "Xiao Yu, It's really you, why are you here..." In the middle of the speech, there was only a murmur - the other party hugged her too tightly, as if to stop her from speaking, he pressed her whole head tightly in his arms, People can't open their mouths at all.
Miao was a little uncomfortable being strangled, but she endured it and didn't resist.She felt that the other party's emotions were not stable, and she knew in her heart that the events that happened these days one after another were too grueling, not only for her, but also for Mo Yu.
Now that we finally met, Miao was actually quite happy to see that both parties were safe and sound, but because of the accident that had just happened, she was still a little depressed, so it was not as straightforward as Mo Yu expressed it.
Thinking of this, Miao raised her head with difficulty and said: "Xiaoyu, I'm fine, don't worry..." Unfortunately, the only response to her was the silence of the other party and the faintly increased strength in her hands, as if she would run away if she didn't hug her tightly enough. Same.
After a while, Mo Yu's mood gradually calmed down, and he let go of his hand a little, but pressed Miao's shoulder, stared at her carefully, and even reached out to rub his cheeks a few times, as if he was looking for something.
Miao was stared blankly, not understanding what Mo Yu wanted to do.
She touched her face and made sure there was nothing strange on her face, she couldn't help but wanted to ask, but because the other party pinched her cheek and it was difficult to speak, she had to puff up her face in depression, and opened her eyes wide round to look at him.
Here, Mo Yu was trying to confirm the identity of the person in front of him. He was afraid that the reunion he thought was just a vain dream, but when he was caught off guard, he suddenly saw the puffy face of the other party, and his heart relaxed. He couldn't help laughing at his suspicion— —The person in front of me is not Miao, who else could it be?
Jiang Yu would not show such a silly expression, but she is still cute...
Thinking of the words that Jiang Yu left before he left, Mo Yu's expression was a little bad. He looked around, frowned and said, "Where is Jiang Yu? Did she do anything to you after she brought you here?" ?”
Miao was taken aback for a moment, her expression suddenly became subtle, she lowered her head slightly, she remained silent, and seemed a little depressed.
Seeing that something was wrong with her, Mo Yu knew what had happened. Although he was worried, he didn't rush to ask, but patiently patted Miao's head to express his comfort.
Miao looked up at Mo Yu, seeing his worried eyes, couldn't help but calm down, and sighed softly: "Jiang Yu, maybe he didn't think of doing anything to me from the beginning..."
———————————————— Flashback segmentation ——————————————————————
The name Jiang Yu was really unfamiliar to Miao in the first ten years of her life, but she should be very familiar with the person with this name.Not only because of those inexplicable dreams, but also because the person with this name is, in a sense, herself.
For many days and nights in the past, she often saw the life trajectory of "Jiang Yu" in her dreams, as if watching flowers on horseback. Although she had a lot of emotions, she couldn't remember anything when she woke up from the dream, leaving only a vague silhouette. I was able to let her know that I had that dream again, but I still couldn't remember the content of the dream.
Later, she finally knew why.
The result was a bit unbelievable, but it made sense after thinking about it carefully.It is only to blame that she got into a dead end and always associated herself with Jiang Yu, but never thought that their two lives might not have intersected in the first place.
Just as she has never experienced Jiang Yu's life, Jiang Yu has never experienced what she has experienced.In this way, even if you dream of a life that doesn't belong to you, you can't empathize with it, so how can you be impressed?
But even so, she still didn't give up looking for clues, and she never regretted breaking Jiang Yu's seal, or awakening this "other self" who didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, from a deep sleep.
She can tolerate the truth of the matter subverting her cognition, but she cannot accept her life of unknown origin...
She had been aware of the cause and effect that happened to her earlier, but she never got a clear answer.And it was obvious that the person who tied the bell had to be untied. No one else could give her the answer. Qi, who was the instigator, could answer it, but he didn't want to make it clear.
So in the end, she had to pin her hopes on the other party.
When her consciousness regained consciousness, she found that she had left Qin Ling, and was surrounded by a dense jungle with towering old trees, flowers, birds, butterflies and insects.
There were even a few strange-looking but very beautiful birds flying down from the branches, covered with emerald feathers, jumping around her.Although they are small in size, it is not difficult to see from their appearance that the appearance of these birds is very similar to the blue birds that appeared in the Qinling Mausoleum. I have never seen it before, but there is always an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Miao was quite concerned, but her eyes were unconsciously attracted by the scenery in front of her.I saw a huge tree growing not far away, supporting the sky and the ground, soaring into the clouds, with the potential to block out the sky and the sun.The surrounding branches are full of small colorful flowers, even if there is no sunlight, they still emit a faint halo, which looks very beautiful from a distance.
Miao's heart moved, and for some reason, he felt a strange intimacy with the giant tree in front of him. Even if he just looked at it from a distance, he felt very at ease.
Subconsciously, she carefully looked around and saw that there was nothing unusual, so she raised her feet and walked towards the giant tree.
But I don't know if it was her illusion, she walked in the woods for a long time, every time she felt that she was about to arrive, but when she looked up, the giant tree was still far away in the sky, and the distance had not changed at all.
"Don't go any further, you can't get there..."
Although the voice of the other party came before the other party arrived, Miao knew who it was without even looking back just with this special voice.
She turned around slowly and looked at the person who appeared behind her at some point, she didn't show any surprise, she just pursed her lips and stood there without saying a word.
Miao doesn't speak, but it doesn't mean that people can't guess her thoughts, and as an existence that "connects with her mind", Jiang Yu can guess what she's thinking without asking.
"The people who stayed in Qin Ling are fine, and Mo Yu is fine...so, you can rest assured."
Different from when she was in Qin Ling, Jiang Yu's aura at this time is not attractive. I don't know if the environment has changed. The dead air that enveloped her seems to have disappeared without a trace. She is still unsmiling, but there is a trace of leisure in her eyes , less haze.
Miao felt that she should say something. In fact, before meeting Jiang Yu, she was full of questions.But she didn't expect that when she really met, she looked at the person standing face to face with her, and she couldn't ask some questions.
What to ask - are you trying to kill me, or do I have to kill you?
Although the core of the conversation must be inseparable from these two contents, judging from the current harmonious atmosphere, it is really inappropriate to bring up such a topic... let alone after experiencing Mrs. Xi He, thinking about the love and hatred of the elders thousands of years ago Love and hatred, she felt that her brain was getting bigger, and she didn't want to talk about too complicated issues at all.
Miao rubbed her temples, the tossing and tossing for a few days had made her exhausted, so she simply broke the pot and slowly sat down on the grass while leaning on a tree.
She used to have low requirements for life, but now she only wants a big soft bed, a good bath and a good sleep, and tells everyone who wants to line up to read her three views, please postpone if there is anything else.
Although according to the current situation, it was impossible to postpone the question, but only she and Jiang Yu were present, and since the showdown was about to take place, the other party probably wouldn't mind her taking a break.
Of course Jiang Yu didn't mind. Seeing Miao's actions, she was stunned for a rare moment, but she didn't make a sound to stop her.What's more, she glanced at the open space in front of Miao with a strange look in her eyes, and remained expressionless for a while, but she didn't make any movements after all-although Miao swore that she saw a trace of entanglement and hesitation in her eyes.
After thinking for a while, Miao said, "Why don't you sit down too, let's talk slowly, it's tiring to stand."
Jiang Yu refused: "No need, thank you."
Miao didn't give up, and suggested with a sincere face: "Sit down, it may take a while to talk, and I look up at you, and my neck is quite tired..." She raised her face and pointed to her neck , Try to convey your kindness to the other party.
Jiang Yu: "..."
Maybe it's been a long time since I saw someone who talked to me like this, or in Jiang Yu's heart, the existence of this girl in front of me is special, but no matter what the reason is, after a sigh, she still chose to be opposite Miao. sat down.
However, unlike Miao who is directly leaning against the tree, even if Jiang Yu sits on the ground, she still puts her hands on her knees, her back is straight, and her clothes hang down on the ground but they are not scattered. .
She had a natural demeanor, and there was no deliberation in her actions, but her stern look still made Miao slightly stunned.
The Yin-Yang family has a strict internal hierarchy. In terms of teaching students, on the one hand, they are required to diverge their thinking and experience the laws of natural changes, so that their vision will not be trapped in a single thought; on the other hand, they are required to "act in accordance with the rules" , every word and deed must conform to the norms, and no matter when and where, the rules must not be exceeded.
In the past, Miao was also raised in this way.Before coming to Daoxiang Village, not to mention rolling on the grass, even revealing one's mood in front of outsiders is not allowed.
Thinking of her demanding mother back then, and looking at how she is "sitting or not", Miao was about to snicker, but suddenly froze—she almost forgot that that person was no longer her mother, and the other There is only one "daughter" recognized, and that is Jiang Yu.
Thinking about Xi and Madam, Miao didn't know what expression to put on.
If it is sad, she has never experienced what happened in the later period, and her feelings are not real, but it must be a lie to say that this series of changes has no effect on her. Father is not father, mother is not mother, and a series of love and hatred are involved. The three views have been severely brushed, and the whole person is going to be bad.
"Are you sad?"
Jiang Yu's sudden sound startled Miao.She subconsciously raised her head to look at the person opposite, but saw that the other person's face was flat, and there was no emotional change at all.
"What happened back then, the culprit has long been buried, what happened today is just another cycle of cause and effect... I am not sad, why are you sad?"
Jiang Yu used questions, but no one else needed to answer them.
"The mortal world is in turmoil, and cause and effect have their own determinants. You are troubled by your aunt's affairs, but you don't know the current situation. It's not her fault alone..."
Meeting Miao's suspicious eyes, Jiang Yu slightly looked away, and stretched out her hand towards the air.At this time, a blue bird flew down from the branch, fluttering its wings and landed on her fingertips.
She held the bird, and her tone was very flat: "My mother, Mrs. Chang Yi, is very attached to my father. At the beginning, my father's death gave her a big blow. After finding out the truth, my mother once resented the murderer. My aunt, however, was caught in a dilemma because of caring about brotherhood—even though the pain of losing her husband intensified with time, she still couldn't take revenge against her only sister..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yu suddenly asked: "You know, my aunt once wanted to kill my mother, but stopped halfway?"
Miao nodded lightly and said, "Madam Xihe said that at that time, she was backlashed by his own curse. Madam Chang Yi saved her regardless of the previous suspicions, but she caused old injuries due to this... and unfortunately passed away."
"That's right, my mother did save my aunt. It's just that saving people is true, but mother's motives, the so-called concern for family affection, is probably just my aunt's wishful thinking." Jiang Yu's face was indifferent, as if she didn't care about the things she said. She didn't care, but Ke Miao noticed carefully that her eyes seemed to be much darker than before.
Jiang Yu didn't notice it, and just let herself fall into some strange emotions: "Master's soul is too powerful, and reincarnation cannot erase his memory, and the lifespan of a mortal body is limited, and it cannot carry his soul for a long time. So he can only choose to reincarnate. This is a secret matter in his heart, and he will never mention it to others... Unfortunately, there are no absolute secrets in this world. By chance, the abnormality in Master was finally discovered by his mother. However, my mother is not a person who likes to show off her words, if the incident with my aunt hadn't happened, I think this secret will always be rotten in her heart..."
Hearing this, Miao felt that her brain was not enough: "It's not that Mrs. Chang Yi has passed away long ago, so what happened later has nothing to do with her?"
"Of course it has something to do with it. If it weren't for her, my aunt might not have a deep heart..."
Jiang Yu slightly closed her eyes and said: "Mother doesn't need to do anything, she just needs to tell Donghuang Taiyi the true identity of Master, and keep it from Aunt to the end, so that she will never know until she dies. Only in this way, she can give Aunt A punishment worse than death... and all of this is just the beginning of Donghuang Taiyi's plan."
Miao was taken aback: "East Emperor Taiyi?"
Jiang Yu nodded and said: "When Master was in Yinyang's family, he served as Dongjun. The reason why he resigned and lived in seclusion in the mountains was because he promised his mother to raise me up, and secondly, he disapproved of Donghuang Taiyi's actions... "
"Thinking about it now, whether it was the crazy mother, the crazy aunt, or even me at the time, maybe Donghuang was the tool used by the Eastern Emperor to target Master from the beginning, but it was himself who killed Master in the end..."
Miao asked puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Yu's face turned very cold in an instant: "Master, he knows everything in his heart, but he never refuses or fights, and submits to everything. If he doesn't want to die himself, even the ten Eastern Emperor Taiyi can't help him!"
Thinking of Qi's temperament, Miao couldn't care about Jiang Yu's cold face, and asked in confusion: "But father is not a person who talks about life and death lightly. If no one hurt him, how could he ask for death for no reason?"
Miao subconsciously yelled out her previous address, but she didn't realize it herself, but Jiang Yu's face froze, and there was a bit of obvious disappointment in her eyes: "Ordinary people, of course they can't hurt him, but I served the bowl He didn't want me to be aware of the conspiracy, and he was afraid that I would be involved in right and wrong, so he had to use his tricks... He thought that nothing would happen to him, but he didn't expect that Donghuang wanted his life wholeheartedly. There was no escape."
Miao frowned and said, "But doesn't Donghuang Taiyi know that after his father is reborn as a human, he will not lose his previous memories?"
Jiang Yu said: "So what if you know, even if you want to grow up as a human again, it will take at least ten years. At that time, it will be too late to say anything. Donghuang Taiyi doesn't want to fight to the death with Master, he just needs It is enough to suppress Master for a period of time and be able to unfold his plan."
Miao frowned, opened her mouth as if to say something, but pursed her lips for some reason, and finally said nothing.
What she thought in her heart was that if she wanted to compete with Donghuang Taiyi, why bother to go personally.At that time, the Yin Yang family had many enemies. Even with the support of Ying Zheng, they were not a solid internal body.Wouldn't it be much better to rely on one side's forces than to fight alone?
Seeing Miao's thoughts, Jiang Yu couldn't help but shook her head and said: "Although Master's life was killed by Donghuang in this life, the relationship between him and Donghuang Taiyi is not life and death. It's just different positions that lead to the final parting ways. What's more, the master's way of life will never allow him to intervene in the disputes of the world. He was reborn in the Yin-Yang family earlier, and he had no choice. After reincarnation, if it wasn't because of me, he might never return to Mount Li. "
In the last sentence, Jiang Yu's expression was inexplicable, which caught Miao's attention: "When he returned to Yinyang's house as Jiang Qi, you should have not been born yet. Why did he say that he was for you?"
"Because he is a very serious person, and the rules he has set will never be violated..."
There seemed to be a flash of strong emotion in Jiang Yu's eyes, but she lowered her head slightly, and others couldn't see it clearly: "Master has gone through thousands of reincarnations and has many identities, but even so, he still lives very seriously. Wherever he is, he is good at where he is. He never violates the principles of heaven and ethics, and never tries to change the world. After the first life, this life will be cut off. After being reincarnated as a human, he will never interfere in his previous life... But my birth has disrupted all of this."
Miao's heart skipped a beat, and she stared at Jiang Yu with all her attention, without even blinking her eyes.She had an intuition that the answer she had been looking for might be about to be revealed.
Sure enough, Jiang Yu glanced at her indifferently, wondering if she had sensed her mood, and suddenly slowed down her speech: "Master is well versed in the principles of the Dao, and has always followed the way of heaven, never doing things that go against the law. He is open-minded and always kind to others. I thought that after thousands of years, he should have seen through the world and had such a peaceful state of mind, but he never thought that he has not jumped out of the world of mortals, but has not waited for the person who made him re-enter the world of mortals... "
Hearing this, Miao didn't know what to think of, and her complexion became very strange in an instant. Relating to what Mrs. Xi He had said, she looked at Jiang Yu with a bit of weirdness in her eyes.
"Where did you go?" Jiang Yu saw through Miao's thoughts at a glance, and said in a neutral voice: "Master returned to Yinyang's house, it was indeed for me, but the person he was looking for was not me. To be sure Said he had been trying to find someone else through me."
another person...
Miao's heart shuddered, and childhood memories flooded her mind again.Qi did treat her very well, but it was true as Jiang Yu said, the way he looked at her often seemed to be looking at another person, and when he coaxed her to sleep at night, he sometimes thought she was asleep. He would say things she couldn't understand.
"Father, who is the person he is looking for?"
Jiang Yu's calm appearance made Miao feel that she must know something, but unexpectedly the other party just shook her head and said, "I don't know, I just have some guesses, that's why I brought you here to find an answer."
Miao was taken aback, and subconsciously shifted her eyes to the giant tree in the distance: "Where is this place? Why, I always have a very strange feeling..." She thought for a while, and managed to find an adjective: "Very kind. It's just a tree, but I don't know why I really want to touch it and get close to it..."
"It's not just you, I also feel this way..." Jiang Yu's gaze shifted to Jumu, her gaze seemed calm and serene: "The person Master is looking for is very special. To be precise, the other person can no longer be called a human being. A shadow that remains in the world." She slowly raised her hand, pointed at the void with her right hand, and a eight-diagram star map with faint light instantly condensed and formed at her fingertips, faintly, and a line of ancient characters seemed to emerge in the center.
"Master walked in the mortal world. He has had many names and has forgotten many names, but he still has only two names. One is Cangwu and the other is Qi. Cangwu's name cannot be tested specifically. But the name Qi can be traced back to the monarch of the Xia Dynasty at the earliest..." She paused, looked at Miao, and asked: "You have the deepest memory of your childhood, but do you still remember that Master once said Have a story about a goddess?"
Miao nodded and said, "Remember, that story was about the goddess helping Dayu to control the water, and it also mentioned the reincarnation of the goddess, the great witch of the Xia Dynasty..."
"It is said to be a great witch, but it is actually the words of later generations. At that time, there was no such thing as a witch Zhu. The reincarnation of that goddess was called a 'prophet' by the people at that time."
Jiang Yu made a brief mention, and then returned to the topic: "In the story, after the goddess drowned, Dayu brought back a baby girl from the edge of Jiangshui, claiming to be the reincarnation of the goddess, and named him Huai. When Huai grew up, he had a baby girl The man fell in love with each other, but was opposed by the monarch at that time. In the end, Huai's lover was executed, and Huai died one after another because of his grief. The monarch who broke them up at that time was Si Qi, because he was the second king of the Xia Dynasty. When people in later generations mentioned him, they all called him Xia Qi."
Miao said: "You mean, this Xia Qi...has something to do with my father?"
Jiang Yu corrected: "It's not that it's related, but I guess that the king of the Xia Dynasty is a certain life of Master's reincarnation, and this life will not be too far behind, and it may even be his first life."
Jiang Yu's words were like a thunderbolt, which made Miao unable to recover for a long time.
After being dazed for a while, she said in a bit of confusion: "In the story of the Goddess, Xia Qi insisted on breaking up Huai and her lover. All the tragedies that happened... If he is Xia Qi, then in this story, why would he slander himself so much?"
"Because he regretted it, regretted everything he had done."
Jiang Yu's expression remained unchanged, and her tone was as if she was talking about something unimportant: "According to what Master said, Huai couldn't fall in love with men because of his duty. But in fact, the Xia Dynasty was unified not long ago, and the people of that era People still regard the continuation of future generations as the most important thing, and even have a tendency to worship it. It is impossible to force women to "guard their bodies", let alone the person who is forbidden to love others is still a "prophet" who guards a group of tribes '."
Miao heard this, and thoughtfully said: "So, the rule that Huai is not allowed to fall in love with men is just Xia Qi's excuse, and the reason why he executed Huai's lover is entirely out of selfishness?"
Jiang Yu said: "I am afraid that only Xia Qi knows this. If this story is true, then after the beloved was executed, the heartbroken Huai did indeed cast a curse, but because of the content of the curse, the people at that time The disaster did not come immediately, so people in later generations don't know whether Huai really cast a curse."
Miao was puzzled, "What kind of curse is it? Why didn't it come true?"
Jiang Yu replied: "Huai's strength was no match for Xia Qi, so she used herself as a matchmaker to cast the curse on herself, but she died, and she couldn't wait for the curse to come true."
"Ah?" Miao was stunned for a moment, unable to respond, "What kind of curse is this?" Cursed himself, and cursed himself to death?
"After Huai's death, although the curse did not come true immediately, it does not mean that the curse has disappeared. In fact, Huai had a strong resentment at that time. Woe."
As Jiang Yu's voice fell, the star map floating in front of her began to change, and the star points connected together, and gradually turned into the appearance of a mysterious bird, "The mysterious bird of destiny descended to give birth to Shang. The one I hate The Xia Dynasty, 400 years after her death, was finally replaced by a new dynasty, and what people have to think about is that when Cheng Tang destroyed Xia, the one who helped King Shang destroy the last bit of luck of Xia Dynasty This person is the descendant of Huai——Zi Luan, he is the youngest son of Cheng Tang, his mother was originally from the royal family of the Xia Dynasty, half of Xia people's blood flows in his body, and he has inherited Huai's powerful witch power."
Hearing this, Miao felt a little confused: "What is Huai's curse at the beginning? Is this Ziluan simply inheriting the power of his ancestors, or is Huai himself the reincarnation?"
"No one knows these things. Master probably knows something, but if you ask him, he will never tell you..." Jiang Yu's tone was flat, and there seemed to be no waves on her face, but dark waves were turbulent at the bottom of her eyes: "Huai Before he died, he left a sentence like this - 'When I return again, it will be the day when the dynasty will be overthrown. I will do my best to take revenge on you and never die.'”
Miao's face became a little ugly: "If this kind of vague words is really related to the curse, then the involvement will be wide..."
The dynasties of the past dynasties were all formed in accordance with the destiny. At the beginning of their establishment, they must have a certain amount of blessings. With the strength of only one person, no matter how great they are, it is generally difficult to shake their foundations.
The meaning of this sentence is more like cursing the Xia Dynasty's doom with resentment.If it has nothing to do with the curse, it's okay, but if it is really related to the curse, so vague, if the words come true, won't it make the person who bears the curse fall into a situation of eternal doom?
Once reincarnated, he will be born when the prosperous world collapses...
Miao's face was in disbelief, and there was a message like "go crazy" in her eyes.
Jiang Yu saw it in her eyes, and said calmly: "If the words left by Huai are really related to the curse, then she was desperate at that time, and she didn't think about what would happen in the next life at all, so that she put her own Reincarnation has become an unsolvable death curse, as long as the dynasty is still there and her soul is immortal, her reincarnation will always fulfill this curse, and she will be involved in the chaotic world life after life, and she will never be able to escape."
Miao was stunned. This kind of person who takes revenge by cursing himself without leaving any room for himself is too crazy.She couldn't help asking: "Is the reincarnation of Nahuai, as she herself said, suffering from wars in every life?"
Hearing Miao's question, Jiang Yu rarely fell silent, as if it was difficult to answer.Just when Miao thought she would not answer again, she pondered for a while, and then said: "Huai's first life was the youngest son of the king of Shang, born noble and powerful. But in the Shang Dynasty, where theocratic power prevailed at that time, as a prince , but even more supernatural than King Shang who is the 'leader of witches'. If he doesn't know how to restrain himself, he simply thinks his life is long. However, this person is pedantic and righteous, and he doesn't believe in brotherly killing. Cheng Tang can still be protected in this world. Once he died, Cheng Tang died, and Ziluan died soon..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yu paused, and her tone became chilly: "As for Huai's second life, his life is unknown. It is said that he descended to the end of the Shang Dynasty. He was the last great witch of the Shang Dynasty. He probably died early when he met King Wu. ... And after this person, the third life conceived is me."
Jiang Yu's last words were understated, and Miao was slightly taken aback after hearing this, but she didn't look very surprised... In fact, she didn't have time to be surprised at all.
At this moment, countless clues were connected in her mind. Many things that were unclear before became extremely clear at this moment, and many unexplainable things seemed to have answers.
She thought for a while, and couldn't help saying: "Ziluan helped the king of Shang to destroy Xia, so it can be said that he answered Huai's words at the beginning. In this way, Huai's resentment should also dissipate. Could it be that the curse is still not there? Release?"
Jiang Yu shook her head and said: "No one knows what the curse was at the beginning, and naturally there is no way to start it. It's just that she did curse herself, so that in every reincarnation of her life, her destiny is very fierce. Declining at the extreme, doomed not to end well.”
Miao opened her mouth, and her voice was a little dry: "So, then I..." She is proficient in divination, so she can naturally calculate that although her birth date in this life is not perfect, it is not bad either. The life master Gu Sha that Yu said is far from it.
If the curse really existed, what does it mean that she was able to escape the death of the murderer based on her "connection" with Jiang Yu?
At this point, Jiang Yu no longer concealed it: "I said, you are not my reincarnation, but my past. After my death, my remains were secretly brought back to Qin. At that time, Master's The reincarnation has grown up. Not only did he participate in the construction of the Qin Mausoleum, but he also used the power of the dragon veins to set up a Shen Lingzhen in the mausoleum and imprisoned me in it. After that, he cast a spell to make his soul go back to the past, and he used Yin and Yang to hook jade The connection between them broke the barrier of time, sent the past me to a thousand years later, and forced him to reincarnate, and the reincarnated person is you."
"Wait..." Miao suddenly interrupted: "You mean, my father sent you in the past to be reincarnated thousands of years later, and then I was born. But why, my impression of my childhood is completely different from yours. ?”
"Because Master didn't want you to remember the past, so he rewritten your memory. At least when I was young, although he was my adoptive father, I never called him father, and the relationship between me and my aunt is not yours. As close as I remember."
The breeze blew past, gently blowing away the clouds.
A ray of sunlight shone through the gaps between the branches and shone on Miao's face. It was so warm that she couldn't help but move, and put most of her body in the sunlight.But then she discovered that this was actually useless, no matter how warm her body was, it couldn't stop her heart from cooling down.
In fact, she couldn't say she was sad or wronged, but for some reason, when she remembered what happened when she was a child, her eyes suddenly became a little sore.But she wrinkled her nose, trying to force back the sour feeling welling up in her heart.
At this time, she looked up at Jiang Yu, and found that there was no trace of pity in the other's eyes, but she no longer looked indifferent. There was a faint light in the dark eyes, reflecting a little tenderness, which made people extremely reassuring .
In such a pair of eyes, Miao saw her own reflection.It's so clear, it's not anyone's dream, nor is it anyone's shadow, she exists completely, with her own joys, anger and concerns, she won't open her eyes one day and find that she has become another person...
"Miao, do you know why he wants to modify your memory?"
Jiang Yu looked at Miao with gentle and focused eyes, and the hidden emotions in it were so complicated that she probably didn't realize it herself: "He always thinks that I was unhappy when I was a child, so when it comes to you, he hopes to be able to Leave you a happy life. Even if one day you think of the past due to an accident, I hope that the sun will always be sunny in your memory."
Miao was stunned and didn't respond for a long time. It wasn't until the water in her eyes gathered more and more that she suddenly covered her face and buried herself in her knees, but she didn't make a sound, just lying on her stomach quietly.After a while, he raised his head again.
Her face was clean, but her eyes were a little red
When Mo Yu subconsciously asked this sentence, he felt a little uneasy, thinking that what he was worried about had come true.
But before he had any thoughts, he found that there seemed to be something wrong with the cold-faced person on the opposite side. Not only did he look at him with a little doubt, but the aura emitted by the whole person became different—— If I had to describe Mo Yu's feelings at this time, it was probably watching a cold Tianshan snow leopard suddenly turn into a domesticated little cat...
I saw "Little Cat" looking down, staring at the bell that fell on the ground for a long time, then looked up at him again, couldn't help scratching his cheek with his fingers, and said thoughtfully: "It's me!" The bell is right, it doesn't look fake..."
Although it was whispered, Mo Yu could hear clearly.
His hand hanging by his side trembled, and his face suddenly became tense. He clearly had a guess in his heart, but he stopped where he was and dared not go forward, lest the greater the hope, the deeper the disappointment in the end.
The person opposite did not understand Mo Yu's complicated mood at this time, and saw her frowning, standing there and staring at Mo Yu for a long while, then shook her head seriously and said: "No, why is Xiao Yu so dumb? The face is so stiff, it really is an illusion, I have to find a way to get out of this place..."
While talking to herself, she walked towards Mo Yu's direction. When she was only a few steps away from Mo Yu, she gave him a reluctant look, and then she looked away and continued to move forward. Walking, but was suddenly blocked by a hand, and crashed into a slightly cool embrace in the next second.
Before she could struggle, a sentence came from the top of her head, vaguely gnashing her teeth: "Good job, Jiang Miao, I have practiced Yin Yang for nearly twenty years, but now I can't even tell whether the person in front of me is real or not." Already!"
Mo Yu's voice was mixed with a little anger, but also a hint of rejoicing. Hearing it in Miao's ears, her expression froze for a moment, but she immediately reacted, stretched out her hand to grab the other's skirt, and said happily: "Xiao Yu, It's really you, why are you here..." In the middle of the speech, there was only a murmur - the other party hugged her too tightly, as if to stop her from speaking, he pressed her whole head tightly in his arms, People can't open their mouths at all.
Miao was a little uncomfortable being strangled, but she endured it and didn't resist.She felt that the other party's emotions were not stable, and she knew in her heart that the events that happened these days one after another were too grueling, not only for her, but also for Mo Yu.
Now that we finally met, Miao was actually quite happy to see that both parties were safe and sound, but because of the accident that had just happened, she was still a little depressed, so it was not as straightforward as Mo Yu expressed it.
Thinking of this, Miao raised her head with difficulty and said: "Xiaoyu, I'm fine, don't worry..." Unfortunately, the only response to her was the silence of the other party and the faintly increased strength in her hands, as if she would run away if she didn't hug her tightly enough. Same.
After a while, Mo Yu's mood gradually calmed down, and he let go of his hand a little, but pressed Miao's shoulder, stared at her carefully, and even reached out to rub his cheeks a few times, as if he was looking for something.
Miao was stared blankly, not understanding what Mo Yu wanted to do.
She touched her face and made sure there was nothing strange on her face, she couldn't help but wanted to ask, but because the other party pinched her cheek and it was difficult to speak, she had to puff up her face in depression, and opened her eyes wide round to look at him.
Here, Mo Yu was trying to confirm the identity of the person in front of him. He was afraid that the reunion he thought was just a vain dream, but when he was caught off guard, he suddenly saw the puffy face of the other party, and his heart relaxed. He couldn't help laughing at his suspicion— —The person in front of me is not Miao, who else could it be?
Jiang Yu would not show such a silly expression, but she is still cute...
Thinking of the words that Jiang Yu left before he left, Mo Yu's expression was a little bad. He looked around, frowned and said, "Where is Jiang Yu? Did she do anything to you after she brought you here?" ?”
Miao was taken aback for a moment, her expression suddenly became subtle, she lowered her head slightly, she remained silent, and seemed a little depressed.
Seeing that something was wrong with her, Mo Yu knew what had happened. Although he was worried, he didn't rush to ask, but patiently patted Miao's head to express his comfort.
Miao looked up at Mo Yu, seeing his worried eyes, couldn't help but calm down, and sighed softly: "Jiang Yu, maybe he didn't think of doing anything to me from the beginning..."
———————————————— Flashback segmentation ——————————————————————
The name Jiang Yu was really unfamiliar to Miao in the first ten years of her life, but she should be very familiar with the person with this name.Not only because of those inexplicable dreams, but also because the person with this name is, in a sense, herself.
For many days and nights in the past, she often saw the life trajectory of "Jiang Yu" in her dreams, as if watching flowers on horseback. Although she had a lot of emotions, she couldn't remember anything when she woke up from the dream, leaving only a vague silhouette. I was able to let her know that I had that dream again, but I still couldn't remember the content of the dream.
Later, she finally knew why.
The result was a bit unbelievable, but it made sense after thinking about it carefully.It is only to blame that she got into a dead end and always associated herself with Jiang Yu, but never thought that their two lives might not have intersected in the first place.
Just as she has never experienced Jiang Yu's life, Jiang Yu has never experienced what she has experienced.In this way, even if you dream of a life that doesn't belong to you, you can't empathize with it, so how can you be impressed?
But even so, she still didn't give up looking for clues, and she never regretted breaking Jiang Yu's seal, or awakening this "other self" who didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, from a deep sleep.
She can tolerate the truth of the matter subverting her cognition, but she cannot accept her life of unknown origin...
She had been aware of the cause and effect that happened to her earlier, but she never got a clear answer.And it was obvious that the person who tied the bell had to be untied. No one else could give her the answer. Qi, who was the instigator, could answer it, but he didn't want to make it clear.
So in the end, she had to pin her hopes on the other party.
When her consciousness regained consciousness, she found that she had left Qin Ling, and was surrounded by a dense jungle with towering old trees, flowers, birds, butterflies and insects.
There were even a few strange-looking but very beautiful birds flying down from the branches, covered with emerald feathers, jumping around her.Although they are small in size, it is not difficult to see from their appearance that the appearance of these birds is very similar to the blue birds that appeared in the Qinling Mausoleum. I have never seen it before, but there is always an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Miao was quite concerned, but her eyes were unconsciously attracted by the scenery in front of her.I saw a huge tree growing not far away, supporting the sky and the ground, soaring into the clouds, with the potential to block out the sky and the sun.The surrounding branches are full of small colorful flowers, even if there is no sunlight, they still emit a faint halo, which looks very beautiful from a distance.
Miao's heart moved, and for some reason, he felt a strange intimacy with the giant tree in front of him. Even if he just looked at it from a distance, he felt very at ease.
Subconsciously, she carefully looked around and saw that there was nothing unusual, so she raised her feet and walked towards the giant tree.
But I don't know if it was her illusion, she walked in the woods for a long time, every time she felt that she was about to arrive, but when she looked up, the giant tree was still far away in the sky, and the distance had not changed at all.
"Don't go any further, you can't get there..."
Although the voice of the other party came before the other party arrived, Miao knew who it was without even looking back just with this special voice.
She turned around slowly and looked at the person who appeared behind her at some point, she didn't show any surprise, she just pursed her lips and stood there without saying a word.
Miao doesn't speak, but it doesn't mean that people can't guess her thoughts, and as an existence that "connects with her mind", Jiang Yu can guess what she's thinking without asking.
"The people who stayed in Qin Ling are fine, and Mo Yu is fine...so, you can rest assured."
Different from when she was in Qin Ling, Jiang Yu's aura at this time is not attractive. I don't know if the environment has changed. The dead air that enveloped her seems to have disappeared without a trace. She is still unsmiling, but there is a trace of leisure in her eyes , less haze.
Miao felt that she should say something. In fact, before meeting Jiang Yu, she was full of questions.But she didn't expect that when she really met, she looked at the person standing face to face with her, and she couldn't ask some questions.
What to ask - are you trying to kill me, or do I have to kill you?
Although the core of the conversation must be inseparable from these two contents, judging from the current harmonious atmosphere, it is really inappropriate to bring up such a topic... let alone after experiencing Mrs. Xi He, thinking about the love and hatred of the elders thousands of years ago Love and hatred, she felt that her brain was getting bigger, and she didn't want to talk about too complicated issues at all.
Miao rubbed her temples, the tossing and tossing for a few days had made her exhausted, so she simply broke the pot and slowly sat down on the grass while leaning on a tree.
She used to have low requirements for life, but now she only wants a big soft bed, a good bath and a good sleep, and tells everyone who wants to line up to read her three views, please postpone if there is anything else.
Although according to the current situation, it was impossible to postpone the question, but only she and Jiang Yu were present, and since the showdown was about to take place, the other party probably wouldn't mind her taking a break.
Of course Jiang Yu didn't mind. Seeing Miao's actions, she was stunned for a rare moment, but she didn't make a sound to stop her.What's more, she glanced at the open space in front of Miao with a strange look in her eyes, and remained expressionless for a while, but she didn't make any movements after all-although Miao swore that she saw a trace of entanglement and hesitation in her eyes.
After thinking for a while, Miao said, "Why don't you sit down too, let's talk slowly, it's tiring to stand."
Jiang Yu refused: "No need, thank you."
Miao didn't give up, and suggested with a sincere face: "Sit down, it may take a while to talk, and I look up at you, and my neck is quite tired..." She raised her face and pointed to her neck , Try to convey your kindness to the other party.
Jiang Yu: "..."
Maybe it's been a long time since I saw someone who talked to me like this, or in Jiang Yu's heart, the existence of this girl in front of me is special, but no matter what the reason is, after a sigh, she still chose to be opposite Miao. sat down.
However, unlike Miao who is directly leaning against the tree, even if Jiang Yu sits on the ground, she still puts her hands on her knees, her back is straight, and her clothes hang down on the ground but they are not scattered. .
She had a natural demeanor, and there was no deliberation in her actions, but her stern look still made Miao slightly stunned.
The Yin-Yang family has a strict internal hierarchy. In terms of teaching students, on the one hand, they are required to diverge their thinking and experience the laws of natural changes, so that their vision will not be trapped in a single thought; on the other hand, they are required to "act in accordance with the rules" , every word and deed must conform to the norms, and no matter when and where, the rules must not be exceeded.
In the past, Miao was also raised in this way.Before coming to Daoxiang Village, not to mention rolling on the grass, even revealing one's mood in front of outsiders is not allowed.
Thinking of her demanding mother back then, and looking at how she is "sitting or not", Miao was about to snicker, but suddenly froze—she almost forgot that that person was no longer her mother, and the other There is only one "daughter" recognized, and that is Jiang Yu.
Thinking about Xi and Madam, Miao didn't know what expression to put on.
If it is sad, she has never experienced what happened in the later period, and her feelings are not real, but it must be a lie to say that this series of changes has no effect on her. Father is not father, mother is not mother, and a series of love and hatred are involved. The three views have been severely brushed, and the whole person is going to be bad.
"Are you sad?"
Jiang Yu's sudden sound startled Miao.She subconsciously raised her head to look at the person opposite, but saw that the other person's face was flat, and there was no emotional change at all.
"What happened back then, the culprit has long been buried, what happened today is just another cycle of cause and effect... I am not sad, why are you sad?"
Jiang Yu used questions, but no one else needed to answer them.
"The mortal world is in turmoil, and cause and effect have their own determinants. You are troubled by your aunt's affairs, but you don't know the current situation. It's not her fault alone..."
Meeting Miao's suspicious eyes, Jiang Yu slightly looked away, and stretched out her hand towards the air.At this time, a blue bird flew down from the branch, fluttering its wings and landed on her fingertips.
She held the bird, and her tone was very flat: "My mother, Mrs. Chang Yi, is very attached to my father. At the beginning, my father's death gave her a big blow. After finding out the truth, my mother once resented the murderer. My aunt, however, was caught in a dilemma because of caring about brotherhood—even though the pain of losing her husband intensified with time, she still couldn't take revenge against her only sister..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yu suddenly asked: "You know, my aunt once wanted to kill my mother, but stopped halfway?"
Miao nodded lightly and said, "Madam Xihe said that at that time, she was backlashed by his own curse. Madam Chang Yi saved her regardless of the previous suspicions, but she caused old injuries due to this... and unfortunately passed away."
"That's right, my mother did save my aunt. It's just that saving people is true, but mother's motives, the so-called concern for family affection, is probably just my aunt's wishful thinking." Jiang Yu's face was indifferent, as if she didn't care about the things she said. She didn't care, but Ke Miao noticed carefully that her eyes seemed to be much darker than before.
Jiang Yu didn't notice it, and just let herself fall into some strange emotions: "Master's soul is too powerful, and reincarnation cannot erase his memory, and the lifespan of a mortal body is limited, and it cannot carry his soul for a long time. So he can only choose to reincarnate. This is a secret matter in his heart, and he will never mention it to others... Unfortunately, there are no absolute secrets in this world. By chance, the abnormality in Master was finally discovered by his mother. However, my mother is not a person who likes to show off her words, if the incident with my aunt hadn't happened, I think this secret will always be rotten in her heart..."
Hearing this, Miao felt that her brain was not enough: "It's not that Mrs. Chang Yi has passed away long ago, so what happened later has nothing to do with her?"
"Of course it has something to do with it. If it weren't for her, my aunt might not have a deep heart..."
Jiang Yu slightly closed her eyes and said: "Mother doesn't need to do anything, she just needs to tell Donghuang Taiyi the true identity of Master, and keep it from Aunt to the end, so that she will never know until she dies. Only in this way, she can give Aunt A punishment worse than death... and all of this is just the beginning of Donghuang Taiyi's plan."
Miao was taken aback: "East Emperor Taiyi?"
Jiang Yu nodded and said: "When Master was in Yinyang's family, he served as Dongjun. The reason why he resigned and lived in seclusion in the mountains was because he promised his mother to raise me up, and secondly, he disapproved of Donghuang Taiyi's actions... "
"Thinking about it now, whether it was the crazy mother, the crazy aunt, or even me at the time, maybe Donghuang was the tool used by the Eastern Emperor to target Master from the beginning, but it was himself who killed Master in the end..."
Miao asked puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Yu's face turned very cold in an instant: "Master, he knows everything in his heart, but he never refuses or fights, and submits to everything. If he doesn't want to die himself, even the ten Eastern Emperor Taiyi can't help him!"
Thinking of Qi's temperament, Miao couldn't care about Jiang Yu's cold face, and asked in confusion: "But father is not a person who talks about life and death lightly. If no one hurt him, how could he ask for death for no reason?"
Miao subconsciously yelled out her previous address, but she didn't realize it herself, but Jiang Yu's face froze, and there was a bit of obvious disappointment in her eyes: "Ordinary people, of course they can't hurt him, but I served the bowl He didn't want me to be aware of the conspiracy, and he was afraid that I would be involved in right and wrong, so he had to use his tricks... He thought that nothing would happen to him, but he didn't expect that Donghuang wanted his life wholeheartedly. There was no escape."
Miao frowned and said, "But doesn't Donghuang Taiyi know that after his father is reborn as a human, he will not lose his previous memories?"
Jiang Yu said: "So what if you know, even if you want to grow up as a human again, it will take at least ten years. At that time, it will be too late to say anything. Donghuang Taiyi doesn't want to fight to the death with Master, he just needs It is enough to suppress Master for a period of time and be able to unfold his plan."
Miao frowned, opened her mouth as if to say something, but pursed her lips for some reason, and finally said nothing.
What she thought in her heart was that if she wanted to compete with Donghuang Taiyi, why bother to go personally.At that time, the Yin Yang family had many enemies. Even with the support of Ying Zheng, they were not a solid internal body.Wouldn't it be much better to rely on one side's forces than to fight alone?
Seeing Miao's thoughts, Jiang Yu couldn't help but shook her head and said: "Although Master's life was killed by Donghuang in this life, the relationship between him and Donghuang Taiyi is not life and death. It's just different positions that lead to the final parting ways. What's more, the master's way of life will never allow him to intervene in the disputes of the world. He was reborn in the Yin-Yang family earlier, and he had no choice. After reincarnation, if it wasn't because of me, he might never return to Mount Li. "
In the last sentence, Jiang Yu's expression was inexplicable, which caught Miao's attention: "When he returned to Yinyang's house as Jiang Qi, you should have not been born yet. Why did he say that he was for you?"
"Because he is a very serious person, and the rules he has set will never be violated..."
There seemed to be a flash of strong emotion in Jiang Yu's eyes, but she lowered her head slightly, and others couldn't see it clearly: "Master has gone through thousands of reincarnations and has many identities, but even so, he still lives very seriously. Wherever he is, he is good at where he is. He never violates the principles of heaven and ethics, and never tries to change the world. After the first life, this life will be cut off. After being reincarnated as a human, he will never interfere in his previous life... But my birth has disrupted all of this."
Miao's heart skipped a beat, and she stared at Jiang Yu with all her attention, without even blinking her eyes.She had an intuition that the answer she had been looking for might be about to be revealed.
Sure enough, Jiang Yu glanced at her indifferently, wondering if she had sensed her mood, and suddenly slowed down her speech: "Master is well versed in the principles of the Dao, and has always followed the way of heaven, never doing things that go against the law. He is open-minded and always kind to others. I thought that after thousands of years, he should have seen through the world and had such a peaceful state of mind, but he never thought that he has not jumped out of the world of mortals, but has not waited for the person who made him re-enter the world of mortals... "
Hearing this, Miao didn't know what to think of, and her complexion became very strange in an instant. Relating to what Mrs. Xi He had said, she looked at Jiang Yu with a bit of weirdness in her eyes.
"Where did you go?" Jiang Yu saw through Miao's thoughts at a glance, and said in a neutral voice: "Master returned to Yinyang's house, it was indeed for me, but the person he was looking for was not me. To be sure Said he had been trying to find someone else through me."
another person...
Miao's heart shuddered, and childhood memories flooded her mind again.Qi did treat her very well, but it was true as Jiang Yu said, the way he looked at her often seemed to be looking at another person, and when he coaxed her to sleep at night, he sometimes thought she was asleep. He would say things she couldn't understand.
"Father, who is the person he is looking for?"
Jiang Yu's calm appearance made Miao feel that she must know something, but unexpectedly the other party just shook her head and said, "I don't know, I just have some guesses, that's why I brought you here to find an answer."
Miao was taken aback, and subconsciously shifted her eyes to the giant tree in the distance: "Where is this place? Why, I always have a very strange feeling..." She thought for a while, and managed to find an adjective: "Very kind. It's just a tree, but I don't know why I really want to touch it and get close to it..."
"It's not just you, I also feel this way..." Jiang Yu's gaze shifted to Jumu, her gaze seemed calm and serene: "The person Master is looking for is very special. To be precise, the other person can no longer be called a human being. A shadow that remains in the world." She slowly raised her hand, pointed at the void with her right hand, and a eight-diagram star map with faint light instantly condensed and formed at her fingertips, faintly, and a line of ancient characters seemed to emerge in the center.
"Master walked in the mortal world. He has had many names and has forgotten many names, but he still has only two names. One is Cangwu and the other is Qi. Cangwu's name cannot be tested specifically. But the name Qi can be traced back to the monarch of the Xia Dynasty at the earliest..." She paused, looked at Miao, and asked: "You have the deepest memory of your childhood, but do you still remember that Master once said Have a story about a goddess?"
Miao nodded and said, "Remember, that story was about the goddess helping Dayu to control the water, and it also mentioned the reincarnation of the goddess, the great witch of the Xia Dynasty..."
"It is said to be a great witch, but it is actually the words of later generations. At that time, there was no such thing as a witch Zhu. The reincarnation of that goddess was called a 'prophet' by the people at that time."
Jiang Yu made a brief mention, and then returned to the topic: "In the story, after the goddess drowned, Dayu brought back a baby girl from the edge of Jiangshui, claiming to be the reincarnation of the goddess, and named him Huai. When Huai grew up, he had a baby girl The man fell in love with each other, but was opposed by the monarch at that time. In the end, Huai's lover was executed, and Huai died one after another because of his grief. The monarch who broke them up at that time was Si Qi, because he was the second king of the Xia Dynasty. When people in later generations mentioned him, they all called him Xia Qi."
Miao said: "You mean, this Xia Qi...has something to do with my father?"
Jiang Yu corrected: "It's not that it's related, but I guess that the king of the Xia Dynasty is a certain life of Master's reincarnation, and this life will not be too far behind, and it may even be his first life."
Jiang Yu's words were like a thunderbolt, which made Miao unable to recover for a long time.
After being dazed for a while, she said in a bit of confusion: "In the story of the Goddess, Xia Qi insisted on breaking up Huai and her lover. All the tragedies that happened... If he is Xia Qi, then in this story, why would he slander himself so much?"
"Because he regretted it, regretted everything he had done."
Jiang Yu's expression remained unchanged, and her tone was as if she was talking about something unimportant: "According to what Master said, Huai couldn't fall in love with men because of his duty. But in fact, the Xia Dynasty was unified not long ago, and the people of that era People still regard the continuation of future generations as the most important thing, and even have a tendency to worship it. It is impossible to force women to "guard their bodies", let alone the person who is forbidden to love others is still a "prophet" who guards a group of tribes '."
Miao heard this, and thoughtfully said: "So, the rule that Huai is not allowed to fall in love with men is just Xia Qi's excuse, and the reason why he executed Huai's lover is entirely out of selfishness?"
Jiang Yu said: "I am afraid that only Xia Qi knows this. If this story is true, then after the beloved was executed, the heartbroken Huai did indeed cast a curse, but because of the content of the curse, the people at that time The disaster did not come immediately, so people in later generations don't know whether Huai really cast a curse."
Miao was puzzled, "What kind of curse is it? Why didn't it come true?"
Jiang Yu replied: "Huai's strength was no match for Xia Qi, so she used herself as a matchmaker to cast the curse on herself, but she died, and she couldn't wait for the curse to come true."
"Ah?" Miao was stunned for a moment, unable to respond, "What kind of curse is this?" Cursed himself, and cursed himself to death?
"After Huai's death, although the curse did not come true immediately, it does not mean that the curse has disappeared. In fact, Huai had a strong resentment at that time. Woe."
As Jiang Yu's voice fell, the star map floating in front of her began to change, and the star points connected together, and gradually turned into the appearance of a mysterious bird, "The mysterious bird of destiny descended to give birth to Shang. The one I hate The Xia Dynasty, 400 years after her death, was finally replaced by a new dynasty, and what people have to think about is that when Cheng Tang destroyed Xia, the one who helped King Shang destroy the last bit of luck of Xia Dynasty This person is the descendant of Huai——Zi Luan, he is the youngest son of Cheng Tang, his mother was originally from the royal family of the Xia Dynasty, half of Xia people's blood flows in his body, and he has inherited Huai's powerful witch power."
Hearing this, Miao felt a little confused: "What is Huai's curse at the beginning? Is this Ziluan simply inheriting the power of his ancestors, or is Huai himself the reincarnation?"
"No one knows these things. Master probably knows something, but if you ask him, he will never tell you..." Jiang Yu's tone was flat, and there seemed to be no waves on her face, but dark waves were turbulent at the bottom of her eyes: "Huai Before he died, he left a sentence like this - 'When I return again, it will be the day when the dynasty will be overthrown. I will do my best to take revenge on you and never die.'”
Miao's face became a little ugly: "If this kind of vague words is really related to the curse, then the involvement will be wide..."
The dynasties of the past dynasties were all formed in accordance with the destiny. At the beginning of their establishment, they must have a certain amount of blessings. With the strength of only one person, no matter how great they are, it is generally difficult to shake their foundations.
The meaning of this sentence is more like cursing the Xia Dynasty's doom with resentment.If it has nothing to do with the curse, it's okay, but if it is really related to the curse, so vague, if the words come true, won't it make the person who bears the curse fall into a situation of eternal doom?
Once reincarnated, he will be born when the prosperous world collapses...
Miao's face was in disbelief, and there was a message like "go crazy" in her eyes.
Jiang Yu saw it in her eyes, and said calmly: "If the words left by Huai are really related to the curse, then she was desperate at that time, and she didn't think about what would happen in the next life at all, so that she put her own Reincarnation has become an unsolvable death curse, as long as the dynasty is still there and her soul is immortal, her reincarnation will always fulfill this curse, and she will be involved in the chaotic world life after life, and she will never be able to escape."
Miao was stunned. This kind of person who takes revenge by cursing himself without leaving any room for himself is too crazy.She couldn't help asking: "Is the reincarnation of Nahuai, as she herself said, suffering from wars in every life?"
Hearing Miao's question, Jiang Yu rarely fell silent, as if it was difficult to answer.Just when Miao thought she would not answer again, she pondered for a while, and then said: "Huai's first life was the youngest son of the king of Shang, born noble and powerful. But in the Shang Dynasty, where theocratic power prevailed at that time, as a prince , but even more supernatural than King Shang who is the 'leader of witches'. If he doesn't know how to restrain himself, he simply thinks his life is long. However, this person is pedantic and righteous, and he doesn't believe in brotherly killing. Cheng Tang can still be protected in this world. Once he died, Cheng Tang died, and Ziluan died soon..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yu paused, and her tone became chilly: "As for Huai's second life, his life is unknown. It is said that he descended to the end of the Shang Dynasty. He was the last great witch of the Shang Dynasty. He probably died early when he met King Wu. ... And after this person, the third life conceived is me."
Jiang Yu's last words were understated, and Miao was slightly taken aback after hearing this, but she didn't look very surprised... In fact, she didn't have time to be surprised at all.
At this moment, countless clues were connected in her mind. Many things that were unclear before became extremely clear at this moment, and many unexplainable things seemed to have answers.
She thought for a while, and couldn't help saying: "Ziluan helped the king of Shang to destroy Xia, so it can be said that he answered Huai's words at the beginning. In this way, Huai's resentment should also dissipate. Could it be that the curse is still not there? Release?"
Jiang Yu shook her head and said: "No one knows what the curse was at the beginning, and naturally there is no way to start it. It's just that she did curse herself, so that in every reincarnation of her life, her destiny is very fierce. Declining at the extreme, doomed not to end well.”
Miao opened her mouth, and her voice was a little dry: "So, then I..." She is proficient in divination, so she can naturally calculate that although her birth date in this life is not perfect, it is not bad either. The life master Gu Sha that Yu said is far from it.
If the curse really existed, what does it mean that she was able to escape the death of the murderer based on her "connection" with Jiang Yu?
At this point, Jiang Yu no longer concealed it: "I said, you are not my reincarnation, but my past. After my death, my remains were secretly brought back to Qin. At that time, Master's The reincarnation has grown up. Not only did he participate in the construction of the Qin Mausoleum, but he also used the power of the dragon veins to set up a Shen Lingzhen in the mausoleum and imprisoned me in it. After that, he cast a spell to make his soul go back to the past, and he used Yin and Yang to hook jade The connection between them broke the barrier of time, sent the past me to a thousand years later, and forced him to reincarnate, and the reincarnated person is you."
"Wait..." Miao suddenly interrupted: "You mean, my father sent you in the past to be reincarnated thousands of years later, and then I was born. But why, my impression of my childhood is completely different from yours. ?”
"Because Master didn't want you to remember the past, so he rewritten your memory. At least when I was young, although he was my adoptive father, I never called him father, and the relationship between me and my aunt is not yours. As close as I remember."
The breeze blew past, gently blowing away the clouds.
A ray of sunlight shone through the gaps between the branches and shone on Miao's face. It was so warm that she couldn't help but move, and put most of her body in the sunlight.But then she discovered that this was actually useless, no matter how warm her body was, it couldn't stop her heart from cooling down.
In fact, she couldn't say she was sad or wronged, but for some reason, when she remembered what happened when she was a child, her eyes suddenly became a little sore.But she wrinkled her nose, trying to force back the sour feeling welling up in her heart.
At this time, she looked up at Jiang Yu, and found that there was no trace of pity in the other's eyes, but she no longer looked indifferent. There was a faint light in the dark eyes, reflecting a little tenderness, which made people extremely reassuring .
In such a pair of eyes, Miao saw her own reflection.It's so clear, it's not anyone's dream, nor is it anyone's shadow, she exists completely, with her own joys, anger and concerns, she won't open her eyes one day and find that she has become another person...
"Miao, do you know why he wants to modify your memory?"
Jiang Yu looked at Miao with gentle and focused eyes, and the hidden emotions in it were so complicated that she probably didn't realize it herself: "He always thinks that I was unhappy when I was a child, so when it comes to you, he hopes to be able to Leave you a happy life. Even if one day you think of the past due to an accident, I hope that the sun will always be sunny in your memory."
Miao was stunned and didn't respond for a long time. It wasn't until the water in her eyes gathered more and more that she suddenly covered her face and buried herself in her knees, but she didn't make a sound, just lying on her stomach quietly.After a while, he raised his head again.
Her face was clean, but her eyes were a little red
