The leaves are fluttering

——For more than a hundred years, for a moment, they stood opposite each other, the same but different.

There is a boundless darkness above the head, and there is a bottomless pool under the feet. There is a golden light shining from the depths of the water, dyeing the entire water surface into a dark gold, and ripples gently sway when the footsteps move slightly.

When Mingyin regained consciousness, she found that she was standing on a pool of water.

A wave of water swayed from not far away and reached Mingyin's feet. She seemed to feel it. When she turned around, she saw a woman in ancient clothes standing there smiling and looking at her.

"It's you?" Mingyin knew who she was the first moment her eyes touched the woman, her name, her identity, and for some reason, these information popped up in Mingyin's mind automatically.

"It's me." Shezhi replied with a smile.

A simple four-word question and answer, but both of them knew to hide the unspoken words.

Shezhi is clear that Mingyin already knows who she is, and this clarity is deeper than what she described to Madara and others outside, and Mingyin also understands what things are affirmed in Shezhi's two-word answer.

This is the benefit of the conscious world.

"Thank you." Immediately following the answer to the first sentence, Shezhi thanked Mingyin again.This sentence of thanks was so random that it was completely incomprehensible to others, but the two people present knew it well.

Shezhi knew that without Mingyin's acquiescence, she would not be able to control Mingyin's body so easily, and would not be able to avoid Heijue's attack in the first place, and she had always hinted to Mingyin before that the stele There, Quanna was attacked everywhere, if Mingyin rejected this feeling or ignored it, then the result would not be what it is today.

"You don't have to be like this." Mingyin shook her head lightly, in her opinion, Shezhi's thanks were completely unnecessary. "This situation is beneficial to both you and me. Seriously, without you, I would not be able to save Quan Nai, nor would I be able to find something wrong with the stele or even have the chance to find out, let alone you. I should be the one to say thank you for taking my life." With a sigh in her heart, Mingyin raised her head and looked directly at Shezhi, with sincere gratitude in her eyes.

Seeing Mingyin with a serious expression in front of her, Shezhi laughed out of nowhere, a sense of relief welled up from the bottom of her heart.In Shezhi's eyes, Mingyin can be regarded as being grown up by her. Although Mingyin himself is conscious and ignorant, this does not prevent Shezhi from treating her as his close junior.

The laughter faded away, and Shezhi looked at Mingyin's eyes with a soft light like water, and she said in a soothing tone: "This is the first time we have met, but it is undeniable that we have been together for a long time. Your pain, I can feel your joy, your sadness, the friendship between you and your uncle Linya, the friendship between you and Uzumaki Mito, and..." Thinking of something, Shezhi smiled Teasing a little, she winked at Mingyin and said, "...I know everything about you and Madara!"

In fact, since Shezhi suddenly laughed out loud, Mingyin was dumbfounded.The original majesty and beauty turned into the current gentleness and kindness is a bit... black-bellied?Shezhi's style of painting changed so quickly that Mingyin didn't know how to face it for a while, and the last few words of Shezhi's unclear meaning directly made Mingyin's face change.

"You...you..." Mingyin's face turned red and white, and was completely replaced by red. If it wasn't for Uchiha's years of upbringing and support, she would probably have thrown away the last honorific title.

"Okay, don't worry, I don't know everything, I just can feel the ups and downs of your emotions, the most important thing is to feel the safety of you and the people around you, especially to guard against evil." Shezhi comforted Mingyin Said, "I don't feel too unfamiliar now, right? It will be convenient to talk in the future. Mingyin, you can call me 'Shezhi', and there is no need for an honorific title like 'You'."

After calming down, Mingyin also felt that the atmosphere between the two was much closer than before, so she naturally knew the intention of Shezhi's previous actions.

Seeing what Shezhi said, Mingyin accepted it. Although the name change was a bit awkward at first, she got used to it later on.

"So now, Shezhi, can you talk about it? Everything about Hei Ze, about that stele, and about Uchiha."

Shezhi didn't answer right away, she waved her hand, and a scene appeared on the water between the two of them.There were many people in that scene, all of them were dressed in clothes similar to those of Shezhi. Among them was a woman whose appearance was exactly the same as Shezhi, and she was obviously herself.

"I don't know much about Heijue, and most of them are speculations, but I can tell you everything I know, through my own experience." Starting with this sentence, with the words in the puddle under your feet Shezhi told Mingyin the story that was lost in the long flow of history.

There is no concept of time passing in the conscious world, no matter how long you stay here, it is only a short moment to the outside world, so Shezhi is not in a hurry, she can clearly describe many details to Mingyin.

When the story was finished, Shezhi waved her sleeves again, and the scene on the water disappeared, and then she waited there quietly, waiting for Mingyin to digest the information and ask her own questions.

Although what Shezhi said was shocking, Mingyin had already prepared, so it would not be too difficult to accept.After sorting out the stories told by Shezhi, Mingyin naturally discovered the doubts in it. In addition, she had a lot of doubts before. This time, she was able to talk freely with Shezhi, and she planned to ask all the questions. .

"The record about the eternal kaleidoscope on the stone tablet was also deliberately added by Heijue, right? Is it impossible to write like that for the purpose of the immortals of the Six Paths in your mouth? In this way... Heijue really put Quan Nai Madara has received the help of the eternal kaleidoscope." Mingyin wrapped her left hand around her chest, and propped her chin with her right hand as she meditated.

"Also, since Heijue engraved the 'Eye of the Moon' project on the stone tablet, does it mean that its purpose is related to the moon? Then what is there on the moon that deserves its attention? It calculates us Uchiha so much... No, it should It is said that it is to calculate Indra and his turner... Isn't the eternal kaleidoscope alone enough? What it needs is the eye of reincarnation? If you need the eye of reincarnation, you need Asura's turner... Senju and Uchiha... Could it be... Could it be that the eternal grievances between our two races are also..." Mingyin didn't say the remaining few words, she looked at Shezhi as if she had discovered some shocking secret, and only hoped that the other party could give herself a clear answer.

Shezhi, who had been listening to Mingyin's analysis and questioning, pursed his lips and smiled, and then said: "As for the matter of Uchiha and Senju, I don't know if Kuroze is acting as a hindrance, but your thinking is the same as my guess. In short, even if Heijue is not the culprit that caused all this, it must be the existence that contributed to the flames, after all...it once lured Indra and Asura to turn against each other."

"As for Heijue's purpose..." His eyes narrowed slightly, and the gentleness in Shezhi's eyes faded, replaced by complexity and depth, "...there is nothing on the moon, except for that... Zeng Jin's goddess, Zeng Jin The source of people's fear today - Kaguya Hime."

Judging from Shezhi's few descriptions of Kaguya Ji before, it seems that the purpose of Heijue is not much better than what they guessed. Thinking about it this way, Mingyin also has some understanding of Heijue's existence.

"So, what else do we need to do?" Now that Heijue has been sealed, at least for a long time it will not pose any threat, but Mingyin's understanding of Heijue will not be as deep as Shezhi, so she So he asked Shezhi if there was anything else he needed to pay attention to.

"Leaving aside the rest, the part that has been tampered with on the stele must be erased. Father used a special method to engrave the characters. I guess Hei Jue used the same method, so the content on it is not easy to erase. You may be able to find People from the Uzumaki Clan help out." Speaking of the Uzumaki Clan, Shezhi gave Mingyin a meaningful look.

"... After all, the stone tablet is left to you by your father. It is best to successfully erase those contents. If it is really not possible... just destroy it!" Shezhi does not want to see the stone tablet left by the Immortal of the Six Paths destroyed , which contained her father's wishes to Indra and their descendants, but she also understood what was the most important, and she would not leave any chance for Heijue.

Destroy the stele? !

Shezhi's last words obviously left Mingyin a lot of shock, but she thought carefully and understood Shezhi's intention.Nodding slightly, Mingyin agreed to Shezhi.

Receiving Mingyin's promise, Shezhi smiled relievedly, then raised her hand, pointed her index finger between Mingyin's eyebrows, and then withdrew her hand. "I have already told you the method of destroying the stele, I just hope that it will not be used in the end." Shezhi said.

The matter caused by Heijue has come to an end here, and Shezhi understands that the rest is for Mingyin and others to worry about, and her mission and long-cherished wish can be regarded as resolved, but...she still can't help some words I want to tell Mingyin.

"Originally everything is over here, but I still can't help but want to talk to you, Mingyin!" Saying this, Shezhi didn't give Mingyin a chance to refuse, and she said directly to herself, "What should I do? What are you talking about? Ah...let’s start here! Mingyin, I told you about the differences between Indra and Asura, and I want to hear your opinion. What do you think about this matter?”

"Opinion? Is it about realizing the dream of peace?" Mingyin asked and got Shezhi's affirmation. She lowered her head and thought for a while and said, "To be honest, I don't think the kind of peace that 'everyone understands each other' will be realized. I know that Madara has a desire for this in his heart, and I also heard that Senjujuma has the same idea as him, but unlike them, I support Mito's view relatively more. Relatively peaceful , if you mean this, then I think [strength] and [love] are both essential."

Sighing, Shezhi turned her head to the side and cast her gaze into the darkness farther away. From Mingyin's perspective, she could see the curvature of her side face that contained many emotions.

"I think the same as you, but... as his wife, I fully support him, even though I had made a good wish, I hope he can work together with Asura for that common dream year." Turning back, Shezhi lowered her eyelids, her voice was faint, but Mingyin felt that she could peep into her true heart hidden under the calm voice. "In retrospect, although I don't regret it, I can't help regretting it... If I had been more assertive, said something more, or done something more, would the result have been different?"

"If you give up your fat that way, you will only die earlier." Mingyin said sincerely but also firmly.

Slightly taken aback, Shezhi understood why Mingyin said that.

As long as there is Hei Jue, the "if" that She Zhi said does not have any meaning. If she really does that, she will only be remembered by Hei Jue earlier, and she will not be able to escape the fate of death in the end.

After thinking it over, Shezhi felt relieved.

The past has passed, and no amount of regrets can change the established fact. After all, she is very lucky to understand her long-cherished wish.The past is gone, the long-cherished wish is finally realized, and it is time for her to return to the place she should go back to. Now she only hopes that Mingyin and the others can have a different future.

"There are people outside who are worried about you, so I should let you out..." Shezhi took a step forward.

"That person...he is really similar to Indra. From here, I look at you and him, as if I am looking at the past between me and Indra..." Shezhi raised his hand and gently stroked Mingyin's face.

"However, I know that you are different... Although there is no threat of black extermination, the obstacles you have to face are not small... I believe that you will definitely be able to do better than us."

In the overlapping of light and shadow, Shezhi's face gradually became blurred, but her smile was deeply imprinted in Mingyin's mind.Feeling her consciousness being pulled away from this spiritual world little by little, Mingyin knew that she was about to wake up, she didn't resist, but whispered two words when her vision was completely covered by bright light.

"Yes."

Confident and firm.

The author has something to say: In fact, here is another version provided by Jiyou:

Shezhi: That person... I mean Bandian, really resembles Lord Indra.With you, I look at him and you, and it feels like I'm looking at my past with Indra.

Mingyin: I am not you, Madara is not Indra, we are different from you.And (laughs) Madara is mine, even Shezhi can’t share it with you (not even that mushroom head!!)

Shezhi (laughs): I like Bantendian very much, but (winks), I still prefer Lord Indra.

ps: I went to the backstage and saw that four of them were dropped from my favorites... I burst into tears, don’t abandon me, little angels, I will try my best to type 〒▽〒
