[Sword Three] Mountain Ghost Ballad

It was very quiet on Lishan Road.

It was as if everything was silent, and there was not a single bird or beast in the forest.The surroundings were unbelievably quiet, only the rustling of the wind blowing the leaves was repeated.

Contrary to this tranquility, two people were strolling on the way down the mountain at this time.Their footsteps were unhurried, and they didn't seem to be in a hurry. They were Mo Yu and Miao who left the Star Palace together.

The two walked side by side, one without squinting, the other with his head slightly lowered, and there was no verbal communication between them.

Miao glanced sideways at Mo Yu.In order to accommodate her, he didn't walk fast, but he didn't know what he was thinking. Even if he noticed her gaze, he refused to turn his head to look at her.

After thinking about it, Miao gently grabbed Mo Yu's sleeve: "Xiao Yu, what's wrong with you? You look unhappy..."

Mo Yu paused and couldn't help sighing.He reached out and rubbed the top of her head, and comforted her: "I'm not unhappy. But you, after walking for so long, are you tired? Let's take a rest?"

Miao exerted her intuition that has always been comparable to that of a wild beast, and tugged on Mo Yu's sleeve and refused to let go: "You are lying, it is written all over your face, and you said you are not unhappy. Can you tell me?"

Mo Yu simply stopped, turned around and looked at her expressionlessly.

Miao felt a little guilty after being stared at, and she was still a little confused, so she said, "What...what's the matter, do you have something to tell me?"

Mo Yu turned a deaf ear, just stretched out her long arms, and directly pulled the man over, trapped between him and a tree, with a dangerous look in her eyes.

"I wanted to wait for you to cultivate and then settle the score after autumn, but now it seems that some things are better to talk about."

Seeing Miao's stunned look, Mo Yu took out a string of bells from her bosom, and waved them deliberately in front of her eyes: "Should you explain this thing?"

Perhaps Mo Yu's expression was too dangerous, and Miao's brain was running fast, and she immediately understood, but she pretended to be stupid and said, "This is the Yin Yang bell, which is said to ward off evil... Ouch... It hurts!"

Before she could finish her words, her cheeks were suddenly pinched by Mo Yu, and his voice was very low: "At this point, you still want to hide it from me, no matter how dare you pretend to be stupid, believe it or not..."

"Hey, if you have something to say, don't do it..." Miao quickly rescued her face, rubbed it, and confessed: "I was afraid that you would not help me after you knew the truth, so I kept it a secret. You... but I promise, it will definitely not happen in the future, if there is another time, you will punish me... Heaven and earth?"

"You don't need to be destroyed." Mo Yu snorted coldly: "If you want to swear, you will be punished with a longer nose, a wider mouth, bigger ears, a curved tongue, and an ugly face..."

Seeing that Mo Yu was still going to talk, Miao couldn't listen anymore, so she hurriedly stopped him, and said with a depressed face: "According to what you say, it's not as good as heaven and earth, it's too cruel..." She subconsciously touched herself His face, connected with Mo Yu's words, made his body tremble again.

But Mo Yu was unmoved: "Don't be cruel, how can I make your memory long..."

Just a few days ago, Miao secretly stuffed the Yin-Yang bell into the pocket of his coat, not wanting to be caught by him, so she explained that the bell could resist the attacks of a branch of Yin-Yang, and it was for his self-defense. of.

Although after thinking about it, Miao's expression at that time was a bit tricky, but he didn't doubt it at the time.It wasn't until he entered Qin Ling that he knew what Miao's anomaly was at that time.

Regarding the role of the bell, she did not lie to him, but she concealed one crucial thing - the Yin-Yang bell filled with her blood essence, once it gets close to the "land of sinking spirits", it will arouse the resonance of the souls of the people in the coffin, Encouraging him to wake up from his deep sleep spontaneously, Jiang Yu can leave the jade coffin directly without breaking the seal.

Thinking of this, Mo Yu couldn't help but tugged at Miao's face, with a bit of anger on his face: "Don't care about it, put yourself at risk, act willfully... A Miao, dare to trick me into helping you mess around, to make you look good! "

Xu Shi was intimidated by Mo Yu's face, and she lowered her head embarrassingly, without saying a word, and didn't dare to raise her head for a long time.Until Mo Yu began to reflect on whether his tone was too heavy, she suddenly jumped up, stretched out her arms and hung them around his neck with lightning speed.

Mo Yu: "..."

Miao's face was very close to Mo Yu, with sincerity written all over her face: "This is my fault, I shouldn't have used you. Don't be angry, okay, I promise there will be no next time!"

Mo Yu subconsciously supported her body, his face became a little strange, but in order to prevent the other party from falling, and to protect his own neck, he had no choice but to hug her firmly, and let the other party stick to his neck to look cute.

He put on a cold face, he wanted to treat the guy in his arms well, but he never wanted to look at the other person making amends, the anger in his heart could no longer break out, so he could only sigh secretly, as expected, he still didn't grow up, childish Slightly heavier...

Mo Yu was thinking a lot, but at this moment, the person whom he judged to be slightly childish was looking at his face, trying to put on a cute look: "Xiao Yu, I miss you, but you should take a look at me, let's But it's been a long time, don't you miss me?"

Mo Yu turned his head away. He didn't want to pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, his head was on one side, and his neck was itchy by the hot air exhaled by the other party. When he subconsciously turned back, he met the eyes of the other party who was close at hand, and his face was a little unnatural for a while.He had no choice but to look away bitterly, and said in a cover-up: "Smart words!"

Sensing the loosening of the other party's attitude, Miao continued to work harder and became more sincere: "I really know I was wrong, Xiaoyu, don't be angry. As long as you are not angry, ask me to do anything!"

Mo Yu's eyes moved slightly, and she suddenly turned her head, with some amusement in her voice: "You can do whatever you want...don't go back on your word?"

Miao couldn't help but flinch a little, looking at Mo Yu's face, she felt that he was going to play tricks.After thinking about it, he said with a deep expression, "How about... let's discuss it again?"

Miao showed a remorseful expression, and couldn't help but make Mo Yu laugh, but at the moment when the laughter just overflowed her throat, there was an obvious relieved voice in her ear: "I finally laughed, it's really not easy... "

Mo Yu was taken aback for a moment, only to see that Miao changed her previous act of pretending to be stupid, and gently broke away from his embrace, her face returned to seriousness.

She stood firmly in front of him, and the two were so close that they could see each other's fluttering eyelashes clearly.She pursed her lips, her expression became serious, but her eyes revealed a look of shame: "Xiao Yu, I'm sorry..."

Hearing what Miao said, Mo Yu calmed down and looked at her calmly.

She said in a muffled voice: "This time, I didn't think carefully. I shouldn't use you to break the seal, and I shouldn't blindly hide it from you, and even almost hurt you..." In the previous situation, Jiang Yu's friends and enemies I don't know, Miao felt scared when thinking about it now—what if something happened to Mo Yu at that time, what should she do?Miao didn't dare to think about it, and couldn't help secretly hating herself for being reckless.

Thinking of the past, Miao inevitably fell into a guilty mood, and was introspecting herself, but received a light flick from the other party on the forehead.At the same time, a sigh-like whisper came from my ear: "A Miao, you don't think I'm angry because of this..."

Miao was taken aback, then quickly shook her head and said, "I don't think so... I know you are worried about me, so you are angry. I understand it in my heart, but it is because I understand that I am really sorry."

"So you still don't understand..." Mo Yu sighed softly, and put his hand directly on the top of the other person's head: "The reason why I'm annoyed at you for hiding it from me is because you are alone in danger, knowing that you can't do it. Another One reason is that you ignored my feelings and didn't tell me the possible consequences."

Meeting Miao's slightly confused eyes, Mo Yu gently stroked her face: "I was the one who made Jiang Yu break free from the seal. If you have an accident because of this, how will I deal with it? The money that killed you Damn, how can I get away with it..."

Miao was taken aback, and said urgently: "But, I am the one who asked you to do this, and I am the one who kept it from you. Even if something happens to me, it is my own fault, and you..." In the middle of speaking, suddenly Stuck.

Otherwise, what can I say, although Mo Yu was indeed kept in the dark, even if Jiang Yu was released, the instigator was herself, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't be blamed.

After all, Ke Miao hadn't been so foolish as to think that if something happened to her, Mo Yu would have no idea at all.On the contrary, if something happened to her, Mo Yu would definitely blame himself—in a sense, he was the one who broke the seal, so how could he feel better.

It wasn't until this moment that Miao fully recalled what she had done before, and felt that what she had done before was really a jerk. She was only thinking about seeing Jiang Yu to find answers, but she didn't consider the other party's feelings at all.

Thinking about it this way, Mo Yu was just angry, instead of arresting her and beating her up. No matter how you look at it, it's a good way to behave...

Miaowu was in a daze, and was undergoing a new round of introspection, but he heard the people around him say: "Amiao, didn't we agree that we should be honest with each other. But when something really happened, you chose to Hiding it from me...Am I so unworthy of your trust?"

Mo Yu's voice was a little deep, and there was a hint of gloom in it, and something was wrong with him.

Miao felt it, and panicked: "No, I didn't mean that. This time it was my fault, and I will definitely not do it next time. No matter what happens in the future, I will never hide it from you again."

Miao originally regretted what she had done, but seeing Mo Yu's disheartened look, she couldn't hold back anymore, and immediately reassured the other party that she was so anxious that she was about to cry, but she didn't notice it at all. The corners of the other party's lips were secretly raised, and the dark light flashed in the bottom of the eyes, which did not appear to be depressed.

Mo Yu put it away when he was ready, patted Miao on the head, and his tone became a little more relaxed: "It's getting late, let's go back soon, seeing your messy appearance, you must be very tired these days."

Miao didn't find out that Mo Yu was playing tricks, and thought she really hurt the other party's heart, and she still had sympathy for her.At this time, seeing Mo Yu's expression softened, he was also relieved, of course there was no reason not to agree.

Xu Shi saw Miao's exhaustion, Mo Yu said: "Are you tired, I'll carry you?" Although it was a question, he didn't give the other party a chance to refuse.Brushing her hair, she knelt down gently and signaled: "Come on, remember to hold on tight, don't fall."

Miao was stunned for a moment, with some hesitation on her face, but under Mo Yu's repeated urging, she obediently climbed up.

She gently put her arms around his neck and moved uneasily: "Xiao Yu, are you tired?"

Mo Yu had already got up at this time, without turning his head, he said, "How heavy are you? I can carry two more."

There was silence between the two of them again, and neither of them spoke again.

Mo Yu's footsteps are very fast, even with people on his back, he can walk like flying, but after a while, the two have left the range of Lishan Mountain. When they find the post at the foot of the mountain, they can change horses and go forward. It is estimated that they can return before dark in the city.

Miao leaned on Mo Yu's back, pinched a strand of his hair, and played with it for a while, seemingly leisurely, but his brows were furrowed all the time, and he seemed a little bored and restless.

Mo Yu noticed something was wrong with her, but didn't say anything right away.It wasn't until he saw the shadow of the post station in the distance that he opened his mouth and said, "A Miao, you have something on your mind." The tone was not questioning, but determined.

"Hmm..." Miao's voice came from behind Mo Yu, looking a little sullen: "I still can't figure out why Jiang Yu let me go. Before the seal was released, her soul kept suppressing me. But after the seal was lifted, she had a great opportunity to deal with me, but she let it go for nothing... It's really strange."

"Don't think about it if you can't figure it out. Now that the dust has settled, so what if you understand it." Mo Yu said casually, but in a place where Miao couldn't see, his face was not very good, and he was thinking about it repeatedly. The words Jiang Yu left behind before leaving, the more she pondered, the uglier her face became.

Here, Miao didn't realize it yet, and still cared about Jiang Yu's matter: "Before, my body was getting weaker and lethargic, and it was Jiang Yu who was secretly affecting me. If she wanted me to die, there was no need to untie it. The seal, as long as I slowly wear it out, I will be weak and die, but in this way, she cannot be resurrected. So when she hinted that I would break the seal, I thought she was trying to use my body to return the yang, but Unexpectedly, I still guessed wrong in the end.”

"Amiao..."

"Ok?"

"If Jiang Yu really wants to replace you and face her, do you have a plan in mind?"

Miao suddenly became speechless, unable to say a word for a long time.

Mo Yu didn't wait for an answer, nor was he annoyed, but just sighed slightly: "...There is nothing I can do about you."

"Hey, you're not angry with me?" Miao grabbed Mo Yu's shoulder, leaning her head slightly forward, with a nervous look in her eyes.She thought that even if Mo Yu wasn't angry, he would definitely blame her for acting recklessly, but the other party didn't say anything, but made her feel agitated.

Mo Yu turned his head and just saw Miao's pitiful look, and he laughed suddenly: "Why, it's not enough to be considerate of you, so I have to say a few words?"

"Of course not..." Miao saw that the other party was in a normal mood, and put her heart back into her stomach: "Actually, if I do something wrong, it's okay for you to criticize me, this at least proves that you have me in your heart. If you don't pay attention to me, then there is really a problem, this is called that...deep love, serious responsibility. "

"Oh? I didn't expect you to be so enlightened, so let me say a few more words?"

"No."

Miao refused, and even pinched the ends of Mo Yu's hair to scratch his ears: "I don't want you to be so deliberate... Ouch..." Halfway through the scratching, she herself was revenged by the victim, "Hahaha don't ...don't scratch...let go..."

Miao was scratched at the waist by Mo Yu's backhand, and she fell on Mo Yu's back. She was shaking so badly that she wanted to jump off, but even with one hand, she couldn't match Mo Yu's strength.

Seeing the movement of the person on her back getting bigger and bigger, Mo Yu was afraid that she would fall, so she finally raised her hands high: "If I knew you were ticklish like Mao Mao, I should have used this method to deal with you, so as not to be so worrying and disobedient." .”

"When did I disobey discipline? I have done what I promised you before..." Miao's face returned to rosy after some tossing just now, and she was no longer as pale as before.

It's just that she didn't talk about it, but when she brought up the topic, Mo Yu also started to dig up old scores: "You once promised to tell me what's on your mind, and not long ago, you promised me not to go to Qinling. These things ,you did it?"

Miao looked guilty and stopped talking.But after thinking about it, she still grabbed Mo Yu's shoulder and said in a low voice, "I will never hide anything from you in the future, I promise. Even if you don't want to hear it anymore, I will suppress it listen……"

She hesitated for a moment, then added: "Besides, when I promised you not to go to Qin Ling, I really didn't want to go at first. Otherwise, I wouldn't have given you the yin and yang bell. I just don't know how to return it." I fell asleep that night, and when I woke up, I was in the Qin Ling..."

As if afraid that Mo Yu would not believe it, Miao analyzed seriously: "I was sleeping very soundly at the time, and I didn't feel a thing at all. Someone must have taken the opportunity to trick me and secretly sent me to Qinling. So Xiao Yu, I really didn't... "

"I believe you."

"Hey?"

Mo Yu repeated lightly: "As long as it is your explanation, I will believe it."

This sentence was an understatement, but when Miao heard it, she felt warm in her heart, very warm.As she recited these words silently, she couldn't help turning her head to look at Mo Yu, and stared at him unknowingly and became dazed, as if the time went back to the time when she confessed her feelings a few years ago.The long-lost feeling of heartbeat seems to be back again...

Mo Yu felt that something was wrong with the person on his back, turned his head, and saw that the person was staring at him blankly, his watery eyes were shining with a bewitching brilliance.

Mo Yu raised his eyebrows, and showed his incomparable agility on the spot. While carrying someone on his back, he flicked his forehead with one free hand, and he was able to leave with just one touch, and he carried the person on his back steadily. .

"I believe you because so far, you have not been out of line in this regard. Even if you have concealed something, you have never tried to deceive me with a lie. So be obedient and don't move your mind in the future."

Mo Yu's tone was not harsh, just a casual sentence, but it was enough to spoil the atmosphere.

If it were someone else, they would definitely blame him for being incomprehensible at this time, but since the person on his back is more incomprehensible than he is, not only was he not complained about his words, but instead received a nod of reassurance from the other party.

After such an interruption, Miao's originally flushed cheeks have slowly returned to normal.She first lay on Mo Yu's back pretending to be a tortoise for a while, then grabbed his fur collar, and said without words: "Xiao Yu, if you want me to not lie to you, what if one day I lie to you?"

"What, want to know?"

"Ah."

"I won't tell you. You'll know when the time comes..." Without waiting for the other party to blow their hair, Mo Yu added another sentence: "However, when you find out, you will probably regret it. So be good and don't make trouble .” So Miao made another grimace at him on the spot.

Mo Yu: "..."

The sun was rising gradually, and it was noon.

Miao was lying on Mo Yu's shoulder, drowsy, but because the station in front of her was close in front of her eyes, she still tried her best to hold on, not wanting to sleep over and cause trouble for Mo Yu.

Unexpectedly, the little bit of her head has already been noticed by the other party.

Mo Yu stretched out a hand and secretly felt the pulse of the person behind her. Seeing that her pulse was stable and she didn't seem to be in trouble, she guessed that the other person might just be tired, and then slowly relaxed her frown.

"A Miao, if you are tired, you can sleep for a while, don't hold on."

"Hmm..." Miao had just dozed off, but at this moment, hearing Mo Yu's words, her consciousness became a little clearer: "Let's go quickly, otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the city before dark."

Mo Yu: "It's okay, it's not necessary to rush back. Rest easy and sleep, everything is up to me."

"Okay..." Miao nodded, but didn't fall asleep immediately.She quietly lay on Mo Yu's shoulder, and buried her in his neck, rubbing and rubbing, her brows were full of exhaustion, and her mood seemed a little gloomy.

She tugged at the fluff on Mo Yu's coat, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Yu, when I turn around, I want to go to the Tang Sect..."

"how?"

"Tang Wujue... Brother, he's gone. He fell into the pool of mercury, and he didn't see the body. It's probably a bad luck."

"..."

"At that time, he was trying to save me...Now, I need to go back to the Tang Sect, at least to explain the matter clearly to Sister Qingling and the others..."

Mo Yu had no objection, but said: "I will arrange this matter, but right now, I can't rush it. You can take care of your health first. When the time comes, I will go with you..."

"Um……"

Miao nodded slightly, the whole person fell into silence, and did not speak again for a long time.

After a while, Mo Yu tried to call out twice, but the only response to him was the sound of breathing from his ears, soft and warm, puffing on his neck one after another, making it a little itchy.

Mo Yu raised his head to glance at the sun in the sky, and then surveyed the road ahead.Even though the post station was close in front of him, he unconsciously slowed down his pace, and his movements were very gentle.

Under the sun, Huifeng is smooth.

Mo Yu's figure gradually walked away, but two people appeared under the towering ancient tree at one side.Maybe they are already here, but lovers don't know.

I saw that these two people were one tall and one short.The tall one is dressed in white, and the short one is in a blue short shirt. Looking closely, the short man is actually a young child.

His appearance is still very immature, but there is no trace of childishness on his face.Looking at the direction in which Mo Yu was leaving, he sighed slightly: "This result is really unexpected. I didn't expect that the person who finally came out was this little girl. Jiang Yu's heart and nature will be defeated by others one day."

The young boy in Tsing Yi had a look of emotion on his face, but the man in white beside him was silent, just quietly staring into the distance in a daze, as if he didn't hear what his companion said.

And the young boy was quite surprised that he didn't get a response: "Old friend, what's the matter? The thousand-year long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, but I have never seen you happy."

The man in white shook his head lightly and said, "I'm fine, but I'm a bit tired due to too many recent changes." There was a trace of indelible fatigue between his brows, as he said, he seemed really tired.

"Oh, it's still the same..." The young boy in Tsing Yi understood something in his heart, but he didn't point it out, but changed the subject: "It's a great pity that the little girl woke up this time, but I couldn't talk to her. And, I still have one thing I don't know. In the Shenmu illusion, she mentioned to Mo Yu that Miao's time is short, is it true or not?"

The man in white said: "It's true."

"What? What the hell..."

Before the young boy in Tsing Yi asked, the man in white continued: "Life is like a white horse passing by. To her, a thousand years is just a moment, but a hundred years is a pity. Miao is a mortal body, and her lifespan is only a hundred years. Now it has passed ten years." One or two, isn’t there not much time left? And after the first life, the mortal relationship is cut off, and once entering reincarnation, it is difficult to continue the previous relationship, so there is no next life?”

The young boy in Tsing Yi smacked his tongue and said, "You're such a scoundrel. If that's the case, you should tell Mo Yuming afterwards, lest he worry in vain."

"Don't say it, don't say it."

"Why is this?"

The man in white said: "Time flies, but you are young and frivolous. Although a hundred years is short, it is enough to break your heart. When you are young, you have scruples, just reflect on it from time to time, and take pity on the person in front of you. What's wrong with it?"

The young boy in Tsing Yi sneered and said, "You have the most reason. In my opinion, it should be Mo Yu who met the person you asked for, and you are jealous of him."

The man in white smiled lightly, and looked into the distance again.He quietly watched the gradually sinking sunlight, with an indescribable sadness in his eyes.

He suddenly remembered an afternoon thousands of years ago.At that time, the old man was still there, and he was immersed in the joy of meeting again, completely forgetting that after the meeting, what awaited him was a farewell.

'Teacher, I'm having a nightmare again. '

'This time, I dreamed that I was lying in a dark place, and I woke up after sleeping for a long time, as if it had been 1000 years, so long that my body became stiff.I found myself lying in a coffin with a young man standing next to me. He looked at me strangely, but I didn't know him, and I didn't know where I was. '

'Don't be afraid, it was just a dream.When you wake up from the dream, you will be fine. '

'Teacher, if one day I get lost, will you come to me? '

'meeting.I will definitely go to you. '

'What if you can't find me? '

'Then you have to remember the way back, I will stay where I am and wait for you. '

'What if you can't wait? '

' Then wait forever. '

'Well, it's a deal. '

The memory of the past is like yesterday, but the people in the memory have disappeared.Even if reincarnation goes back and forth, there is no way to recover a single bit. Once separated, it means that there will never be a day to meet each other.

... Your curse has finally been fulfilled once again.

The author has something to say:

The chapter will be put down at night, and it will be the real finale.And in the young master's eyes, A Miao is a real brat.

By the way, the next chapter is high energy _(:3」∠)_
