Chapter 294 People tell lies, swords tell the truth
Huang Xi, it’s not simple!
In other words, the Huang Xi in front of him was by no means as transparent as he seemed. Whether it was such a coincidence that he rescued himself from fighting Taotie, or he happened to teach himself those formations by coincidence, everything was revealed to be unexplainable.
Going further, I guess that my chance encounter with Die Qi was also part of the old man's plan?
But the purpose?
If the old man was coveting some secret treasure on his body, there was no need to take such painstaking efforts. He was already powerful, and straightforward suppression by force would be more effective.
Besides, it seems that I really have nothing worth worrying about for such a powerful person.
Having a headache, Xu Qingmu rubbed his throbbing temples and simply closed his eyes to rest his mind and shift his mood.
But the real worries in his heart made the young man have no intention of sleeping. He opened his eyes and began to think about his next plan and that gluttonous beast spirit body. He originally thought of refining and absorbing the beast spirit body, but when he heard Huang Xi say
When the beast spirit body could be kept by his side, Xu Qingmu had some more ideas in his mind. In the future, Lin Zhenbei would be short of a protective monster beast.
Calculated carefully, more than half a year has passed in this Lihuo Realm. According to the speed of time, it is half a year slower than that in the human world. If you calculate it this way, the time you can stay in the Lihuo Realm will be much less.
Otherwise, it will be too late if we can't catch up with the sword-opening battle.
I made up my mind that the battle for my own enlightenment would be advanced.
After thinking about everything, Xu Qingmu was just about to close his eyes and rest, when a soft voice came from his mind, so familiar and beautiful:
"Master!"
It’s Qiu Qing!
Xu Qingmu suddenly opened his eyes, feeling overjoyed and quickly contacted with his heartfelt voice:
"Qiu Qing! Where are you? How are you now?"
"Young Master, I'm fine. I'm underground in the cave. This is a space opened by Grandpa Huang Xi. My soul had collapsed, but Grandpa Huang Xi used a secret method to save me, and now I have returned to my soul. It's just that Grandpa Huang Xi said that I
There is something special about the spirit. It wants me to stay underground for three days. After three days, I can leave on my own!"
"That's good! That's good!"
"Sir, how are you doing now? Miss Die Qi said that you defeated the Taotie by yourself. Were you injured?"
Qiu Qing's voice was a little urgent, and it was obvious that Xu Qingmu took the girl's safety very seriously.
"It's okay, it was Grandpa Huang Xi who saved me."
A sigh came to Xu Qingmu's mind. After a while, Qiu Qing said sincerely:
"Grandpa Huang Xi is such a good man."
Xu Qingmu stopped talking and just asked Qiu Qing to take good care of herself and meet again in three days to talk. The girl agreed and got the news that Xu Qingmu was safe. The nightmare of the past few days was finally over.
Three days passed by in a blink of an eye.
From the second day on, Xu Qingmu's injuries all over his body had healed. In the final analysis, the pill given by Huang Xi really had the effect of bringing the dead back to life. However, Xu Qingmu still stayed in bed and waited for three days before gradually getting out of bed.
.Since you can get out of bed early and have nothing to do all day long, why not think about your next plan in this secret room.
Secondly, Die Qi's meticulous care all day long made Xu Qingmu feel a little...
The old man Huang Xi had already seen through Xu Qingmu's little thoughts, so when Xu Qingmu walked out of the door, the old man directly reached out and asked for:
"Bring it!"
"What to bring?"
"You kid, don't pretend to be stupid. In fact, you have recovered a long time ago. Xiaodie Qi is stupid and can't see it, but I am not stupid! Two kilograms of soju, otherwise I will tell Xiaodie Qi about this!"
Xu Qingmu's face turned red, and he honestly took out two pounds of apricot blossoms and burned them.
Added two more pounds:
"I've bought out this news, and you're not allowed to mention it again in the future!"
"Hehe." Huang Xi grinned his teeth, rubbed his hands to take the apricot blossom roast, then nodded and promised:
"Don't worry, I, Huang, am very tight-lipped."
Then he drank it in one sip, feeling infinitely refreshed. He closed his eyes and raised his head slightly. The feeling of satisfaction in his nasal cavity was very strong, and he heard a soft chant:
"Good wine, good wine, comparable to the 'Pretty Lady' in the divine world."
Then he seemed to realize that he spoke too much, and quickly added:
"Someone also entered the Lihuo Realm before and brought the Three-Kilogram Pretty Woman. It was really delicious. Even that person said that the most beautiful thing in the God Realm is the 'Pretty Woman'."
Xu Qingmu said "Oh" softly, and then seemed to speak intentionally:
"I didn't ask you how you know Pretty Woman, there's no need to explain."
The old man was a little silent, but he quickly changed the subject, as if he didn't want to dwell too much on this issue:
"Xu Qingmu, what do you think of Die Qi? I am only a granddaughter, and I believe you can tell that Die Qi is interested in you."
It was Xu Qingmu's turn to be silent.
Yes, he is not a piece of wood, how could he not feel it? Xu Qingmu even knew that Die Qi's soul had been transformed from a "demon" into a "human". Thinking of the reason for such a lonely throw, there are only a few in the world.
True love. But what can he do? Not to mention whether he can survive to face the battle of enlightenment now, or whether he can survive the battle of heaven in the God Realm in the future, and how to give this butterfly.
Qi an answer?
"I'm afraid that I will die at some point. How can I make a promise to her?"
The old man took a sip of wine, moistened his throat, and smacked his mouth loudly:
"Yeah, I'm afraid of death."
Xu Qingmu wanted to retort, telling the old man now that he was not afraid of death, but that he was afraid that he would not be able to give a future to the people he wanted to be close to in the future. Then the loneliness of living would be worse than death.
The old man continued to speak:
"In the past, I always felt that death was a grand event. No matter what happened in life, whether it was in a high position and respected by thousands of people, or whether it was like grass and mustard cattle and horses as companions, when I died, there would be people bowing with white cloth and beating gongs and drums to see me off. So.
I felt that death was not that scary. At least there were so many people accompanying me to see me off. Only later, when I got used to being alone and seeing the changes in the world of mortals, did I feel that noisy or solemn farewells were unnecessary.
.”
The old man's face rarely looked lonely. After taking a sip of wine, he stretched out his hand to wipe it off in a very shameless manner:
"There is no long pavilion along the ancient road, no willows broken to send to others, there are just old friends one after another on an ordinary night, forever stuck in yesterday."
Xu Qingmu was extremely sure that the old man was exuding loneliness.
Old friends are dying one after another, like leaves falling in the wind.
The fallen leaves have their roots, but he can only continue to be messy in the wind, watching the white-headed snow fall on the living people's heads, and the dead people's burials.
It also fell on the loneliness that would be unbearable for thousands of years.
The old man sighed and looked at Xu Qingmu, who was hesitant to speak. In the end, he just reached out and patted the young man's shoulder and handed the wine in his hand over. The young man took it and also raised his head to take a sip. In a daze, the person sitting next to him was not
Huang Xi was the old beggar who clamored to climb up the wall of Widow Wang’s house to see how ripe the melons were.
Yes, it was just after that ordinary morning that Xu Qingmu lost him.
There are no ten miles of white strips hanging in the street to see each other off, no gongs and drums blaring in the sky and cries of mourning.
There is only him in the world, with another person in his heart, and a yearning that cannot go away no matter what.
Feeling the same thing, they drank wine. The two men, who were very different in age, drank the wine in their hands silently, feeling the private pain in their hearts that was unknown to others. It was very melancholy.
After a long time, Xu Qingmu finally couldn't hold back her drunken heart, and couldn't help but ask:
"Grandpa Huang Xi, how many secrets do you hide from me in this Lihuo Realm? Why do you know Xu Kun's nickname in the human world? Why do you know that I, who is fighting against Taotie, need the God Binding Token?"
There was not much surprise in Huang Xi's eyes, but rather a bit of relief. He was not a stupid person to be able to notice this:
"Xu Qingmu, do you believe me?"
Looking at the serious face, Xu Qingmu wanted to shake his head, but out of the almost unconditional trust in his heart, the young man nodded anyway.
"If you believe it, don't ask. No matter the principles or secrets in this world, they are never revealed. You must know——"
The old man Huang Xi pointed at the sword on Xu Qingmu's waist:
"People tell lies, swords tell the truth!"
For a moment, Xu Qingmu was stunned on the spot, not knowing what to say. Looking at Huang Xi who didn't seem to be joking, Xu Qingmu had to suppress the melancholy in his heart, took a sip of wine as a guide, and let out a few sighs.
At this moment, Qiu Qing, who had already left the underground cave, ran over happily and hugged Xu Qingmu's neck, with tears in her eyes:
"Master!"
Huang Xi grinned when he shouted "Young Master". He could neither sit nor stand because Die Qi, who was holding a fruit plate, just appeared across from him.
Then there was the clang of the fruit plate falling to the ground.
"Ahem... Xu Qingmu, I'll go back first. You'd better think carefully. The anger under the fruit plate is more lethal than the sword on your waist! Also, drink today.
Don’t tell Die Qi about it, otherwise it will be difficult for me, an old man like you, to accompany you out of the Lihuo Realm!"
Apply oil to the soles of your feet and drive away directly.
Xu Qingmu gently pushed Qiu Qing away and coughed to relieve the embarrassment. Then he glanced at Die Qi. His hand, which had never shaken even when holding the sword, had nowhere to put it.
"Okay... okay, it's okay. It's okay. It's okay."
Of course Qiu Qing saw Die Qi in the distance, so she acted in such an intimate manner. Women have always had a clear distinction between grudges and grudges. You save me and you save me, but with this man, I am angry with you and you are angry with me.
Two different things!
"Xu Qingmu, come here!"
Die Qi dropped these words and turned around, striding back to his room.
"Okay...okay."
Then looking at the peaceful Qiu Qing in front of him, he smiled bitterly and turned around to follow Die Qi and leave. Die Qi, who had never been called anything other than "master", called Xu Qingmu's name for the first time, and he said it with a very strong accent!
After entering the room, Xu Qingmu didn't even dare to close the door.
"I became human!"
Die Qi sat on the bed and looked at Xu Qingmu's voice, which was very serious.
"Yeah, I know."
Die Qi raised his head, as if he had made great determination, and then his voice changed suddenly, and even Xu Qingmu was surprised by the tenderness and shyness:
"But I still want to...become..."
"What did it become?" Of course the young man didn't understand what the Huaichun girl was thinking. He only thought that Die Qi wanted to practice some kind of technique.
"......woman......"
