Hua Ling returned to the tent that Gu Xiangqiu had set aside for herself alone. She sat on the bed and leaned over, resting her elbows on her knees, crossing her hands and fingers, and sighed.
Lu Ya transformed into a human and sat next to Hua Ling. His eyes were red and his lips were pursed as he looked at Hua Ling who was also silent.
"What do you want to say?" Hua Ling kept her head lowered, knowing that Lu Ya was looking at her, and she probably had a lot of things to say and ask in her heart.
"...I will also forget you, right?" Lu Ya opened his mouth and asked the question that came to his mind after he heard "Everyone will forget Hua Ling". The meaning of the words was: the mythical beast and the descending of the god.
Will you also forget to spend your pocket money?
Hua Ling had never thought about this. After being stunned for a while, she heard the answer Bo Xun gave in the spiritual sea: "Mythical beasts can, but gods can't."
This means that both the divine beasts and the gods will forget the existence of Hua Ling and civilization in advance, but Bo Xun, who is also a god, is a god, so he will not forget Hua Ling.
Hua Ling relayed these words to Lu Ya. After hearing this, Lu Ya was stunned and hugged Hua Ling.
Hua Ling patted Lu Ya's back to comfort him: "I'm so sorry..."
"Why you, why?" Lu Ya took away Hua Ling's hand and asked, "Actually, all the divine beasts know that such a person will appear at any time to realize the gods' tricks. I just didn't expect that.
The person is you..."
Lu Ya turned away from Hua Ling and covered his face with his hands: "When I saw your head and your body, I never thought that I would see you alive in front of me again.
Because you should be an ordinary person. But you survived after almost everyone saw the body. At that time, I didn’t even think about how you did it. All I could think about was that you survived. You
I can't die anymore. If possible, I want to protect you all the time..."
"Lu Ya." Hua Ling looked at Lu Ya who was almost collapsed in front of him and called his name softly. Lu Ya quickly raised his head and looked at Hua Ling, and Hua Ling saw the tears on his face.
Hua Ling reached out and wiped away Lu Ya's tears with the palm of her hand, and said softly: "It's just a trick of fate. Maybe you can find me even if you lose your memory?"
After wiping away all the tears on Lu Ya's face, Hua Ling held Lu Ya's cheek and said with a smile, "You and I are both 'immortal'."
"But I don't want to forget the time I spent with you..."
"Don't be so emotional, won't the days ahead be long?"
Hua Ling's hint to herself was to stay rational at all times after learning about this matter. At this moment, when facing Lu Ya, she was so rational that she didn't know how to comfort him from the other side's perspective.
It would be better to say that Hua Ling's ability to empathize is getting worse and worse.
"Then...after I forget you, after the destruction of civilization, you have to come find me."
"Um."
"As promised, don't lie to me."
"Don't worry, I won't lie to you, I will do what I say."
…
The sudden appearance of Hua Ling and the news of Lan Shangsi's death caused chaos in Qi State, and the war situation soon turned one-sided.
A few days ago, Hua Ling wrote a letter telling everyone in the palace that he was still alive, and asked Luo She to bring the family portrait, dagger and bird whistle drawn by Hong Zao and the others to the border fortress.
The main reason for entrusting Luo She to bring these things to the frontier was that Hua Ling had a premonition that he might be able to complete the task before returning to the palace, and it would make him feel at ease to take the things he wanted to keep with him.
It was a letter sent by Lu Ya personally. Lu Ya even flew to the frontier fortress with Luo She, who had brought all the things, just to make it faster.
The moment Luo She saw Hua Ling, she was surprised and happy: "The white-haired princess is also pretty!"
The night before Qi Guo surrendered, Hua Shuo came to Hua Ling and asked her to give her something.
Hua Ling was a little curious, thinking about what Hua Shuo would give her.
Hua Shuo took out a clean white bone flute. The style was very exquisite. There were traces of carvings on it. It could be seen that a lot of effort had been put into it.
"Give me this...?" Hua Ling took the bone flute doubtfully and looked up and down in his hand.
Hua Shuo sat opposite Hua Ling, put her palms on her knees and sighed as she watched Hua Ling's actions: "Sister, you should still remember that a few months ago, Hua Zhu Hua Feng asked me to bring Gu Ze's musical instrument, and I hope you can play it.
Bar?"
Hua Ling looked up at Hua Shuo and nodded: "I have an impression, so this is the instrument you brought me?"
"Well, I specially asked a craftsman to make it. It's the only one." Hua Shuo said with a wry smile, "Bo Xun said: 'The medium can be anything'. I want to ask you to play this flute, my aunt told me
You learned to play the bamboo flute before time travel, can you still play it now? The bamboo flute and the bone flute should be about the same..."
Hua Ling listened to Hua Shuo's words and wanted to put the bone flute to her lips, but put it down, "The curse also gave me all the abilities descended from the gods. I am now considered omniscient and omnipotent. So it's just a flute, of course it's no problem. It's just that
…”
"only?"
Hua Ling stroked the unique bone flute with his hand: "Why do you want to give me such a medium? You obviously don't want this to happen."
"But it is already in progress. It cannot be stopped or restarted at any time like a computer loading. After giving this flute to you, I have already imagined the scene of playing it, Hua Ling, I
My sister... you must always be confident and beautiful." Hua Shuo's face drooped and she forced a smile.
"I can no longer be considered a 'sister'."
Lu Ya came back from the window at this time, transformed into a human and sat on the chair next to him: "What are you talking about?"
Hua Shuo explained the conversation just now to Lu Ya. Lu Ya listened quietly and then looked at the bone flute in Hua Ling's hand that seemed ordinary to him.
Lu Ya didn't see the reason, but after hearing Hua Shuo say that Hua Ling could play, he looked at Hua Ling expectantly.
"Even if you use this expression..." Hua Ling frowned and put the bone flute beside him, "I don't know what to play."
"How about Qi Guo's bugle? They are retreating steadily now. It feels very happy to blow their bugle." Hua Shuo suddenly suggested.
"ah?"
"I agree!"
Hua Ling looked at Hua Shuo who made the suggestion in confusion, but Lu Ya suddenly agreed. The two of them looked at Hua Ling with expectant eyes, making Hua Ling at a loss.
"Okay, okay, I'll just blow it."
"Um!"
The bugles are all fierce and powerful. Although the tune played by Hua Ling is correct, it sounds a little tactful, but you can still tell what the tune is.
The sound of the flute attracted soldiers from a nearby tent. The soldiers opened the curtain of Hua Ling's tent and saw Hua Ling playing the flute. They immediately ran to tell Hua Mu and others.
After playing for a while, Hua Ling, Hua Shuo and Lu Ya suddenly found that the door curtain had been opened, and there were many "eavesdropping" soldiers standing outside the door. Hua Mu, Gu Xiangqiu and the others stood directly at the door and listened openly.
"What...are you doing?" Hua Ling looked at them strangely after putting down the bone flute.
Hua Mu asked cheerfully: "Ling'er, want to play another song? Any style of music is fine."
"Yeah, we still want to hear it!" the soldiers said in unison.
Hua Ling rolled her eyes and thought about it, then decided to play a song she had heard before traveling through time. She nodded with a smile and stood up to play.
That night, the sound of Hua Ling's flute wandered around the Swiss military camp for a long time.
