Qingguan Nightmare Shadow

Nie Qiu said: "At the beginning when I saw you with a god of Shileibuyu, I guessed that you were not a mortal. Later, when you flew with the sword, you used the fairy power. I saw the color of the fairy power, and I firmly believed that you were not a mortal. You are not a disciple of the immortal sect, but an immortal monarch from above. You deliberately avoided the sight of ordinary people and acted in a low-key manner, thinking that you did not want others to know your identity. In order to persuade you to come to Xiuzhu, I had to pretend not to know. "As he said, he stretched his arms forward and put them together, "Brother, oh no, Xianjun, now that I have eaten a bite of grass, I won't starve to death for the time being. As for using you, you should tie me up first. If you want to draw or beat, you can figure it out!"

Even though he heard what he said, Yun Li saw that he had one eye open and the other closed, and knew that he was far from having the consciousness to sincerely apologize, so he waved his hand falsely, and gave up on bluffing him.

Yunli: "What are you going to do next?"

Nie Qiu's eyes suddenly dimmed to the direction of the mirror just now, and a few strands of hair fell down.He didn't seem to have thought about this question, and he didn't know where to think about it.

Yun Li asked another way: "Are you going to find your junior brother?"

Nie Qiu didn't answer, but instead asked him: "Xianjun... Brother, are you really here to 'play' with Zhuzhu?"

Yun Li shook his head and nodded again: "Maybe it is."

Nie Qiu said: "Xiuzhu is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, every step is a scene, there are countless good places to enjoy and have fun. After this rain, the scenery will be even more beautiful. It's a pity that I don't have the heart to take you to see it right now." He hugged With the back of his head, he pursed his lips for a while, "I want to go in the direction of the capital first, and take a step at a time."

On the way, he may or may not find the needle in the sea.

Yun Li wondered, "Why is it the capital?"

"My teacher is in the capital... I now feel that I am not the one who has no face to see the master." Nie Qiu tried to speak more seriously, but his voice trembled uncontrollably, and the last word "I" was directly distorted It became a sigh.He remained silent for a while, then forced a smile to Yun Li that wasn't really a smile, and drew out a spell to hide his figure.

The latch moved, and the door was pushed open a gap.

Yunli: "Are you leaving now?"

"Ah, no, I just... went for a walk..." Nie Qiu said, "At present, the officials have forgotten one thing. I have to wait until they remember your bounty, brother, so I can get a share of it! Hahaha Haha..." He laughed as he spoke, more sharply than General, Yun Li was inexplicably relieved when he heard this, thought for a while and said, "I will share one of your talismans."

"Amulet? Uh, Tangtang Xianjun needs my amulet?"

Ordinary people who practice different arts are divided into two categories: immortal cultivators and wizards; the inner qi and abilities of their cultivation are attributed to the "Ming" and "Yin" respectively represented by "Heaven" and "Earth".Immortals come from "heaven", and the power of immortals belongs to "Ming", and their corresponding "spiritual power" of cultivators in the mortal world is only good at moving in bright places; The internal energy of the wizard corresponding to the time is good at moving in the dark.Therefore, although Nie Qiu, who is a wizard, seems to be able to hide and hide, it is easy for Nie Qiu to do it, but not any gods with "bright" breath in the sky can do it.

Nie Qiu didn't know about this layer of inner meaning, but Yun Li didn't bother to explain it, he just said concisely: "Everyone in the world has his own expertise."

"Ah, so... I just don't know what the little brother wants this talisman for?"

A spell flew over, and Yun Li grabbed it with two fingers.Yun Li subconsciously blurted out: "Look for someone." When he entered the prefect's mansion, Yun Li didn't see Su Tong. He thought it might be because there were too many people and Su Tong was buried in some corner, so now he wanted to go out and look for him. After finding it, dig out the ice in his heart and face.

Nie Qiu laughed and said, "Oh, I must be looking for Mr. Su! I understand, I understand!"

Yunli raised his forehead: What did this stinky wizard understand...

The two went out the door one after the other.The corridors and halls leading to the gate of the mansion were filled with round tables, Yun Li didn't know which two tables Nie Qiu passed between, so he simply ignored it and let him go.Yunli looked around for a while, until he found Mr. and Mrs. Cheng but still couldn't see Su Tong. Then he realized that Su Tong probably took the first step by himself and returned to Mr. Cheng's home.

When stepping into the courtyard dam and stepping into the rain, Yunli held his right hand empty, gathering an umbrella-shaped air, causing the heavy rain to divert from the top of the head and drip down along the embodied air.He walked along the way he came, and his pace was a little faster, and he saw Su Tong's back on the way.Seen from behind, the young man stared straight ahead, pushing aside the rain curtain alone with his body, appearing in a hurry, even if he accidentally stepped on a mud puddle, he didn't care.

At the fork in the road, Su Tong did not turn to the old couple's house, but turned in another direction.

Yun Li walked a few steps faster, caught up with Su Tong, appeared behind him, and naturally moved the "umbrella" towards him.

The raindrops on the head suddenly disappeared, and suddenly there was another person beside him, Su Tong couldn't help taking a short breath of cold air.

"Master Yun?"

Yun Li saw his two ink pupils flicker, as if there was a trace of dark lines.But the ink was too thick, and the dark lines expressing certain emotions were immediately smoothed out.

"Where is Mr. Su?"

Su Tong didn't answer, but just continued walking, out of the range of the "umbrella".Even though it is summer now, if he walks in the torrential rain like this, I am afraid that he will get out of illness.Yun Li followed again, extending the "umbrella" by the way.

Yun Li said helplessly: "Why don't you tell me what's stuffy in your heart? Hey hey hey, you walked so fast, did you see my shadow or something... Sorry, I didn't expect to take you to the sky but it's you The indelible wound was left in my young heart, I reflect on it, and I apologize. Mr. Su, I rarely apologize to others, is my apology enough?" Yun Li usually doesn't talk much, and in front of Su Tong But he can always chatter endlessly, "Master Su, who else can you talk to if you don't tell me what's on your mind?"

Su Tong's feet faltered, and she tilted her head slightly.

Yunli said: "I mean, you and I...well, I'm the same age as you, so it's easier to understand your feelings." He looked straight into Su Tong's eyes, wanting to meet her; but Su Tong's eyes were covered with a cloud, which isolated his heart from the outside world.Yun Li only felt that what his gaze hit was the distorted water surface at the bottom of the lake.

The "water surface" is not cold.

At least not as cold as when we first met.

Su Tong continued to walk forward.

Yun Li followed him and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to talk today, I won't bother you anymore. It's just that you promised to take me around Xiuzhu, but I took your words seriously, Young Master Su. I'll come to see you tomorrow Street, when the time comes, if you are immersed in your own world again, I can't let you go!" Yun Li focused on hanging Su Tong out of the clear water, so he told him a half-hearted sentence, but as for how " Can't help it", but he didn't have any practical thoughts. "Master Su, give me your hand." Without waiting for the other party to respond, Yun Li raised Su Tong's arm, letting the sleeve slide down to the elbow, exposing the wrist.

Su Tong felt a icy cold on his wrist: Yun Li had a wisp of immortal power wrapped around it.

Su Tong asked with his eyes: "What is this?"

"Let Mr. Su hold the umbrella by himself, so that no one will make noise nearby." Yun Li handed the "umbrella" to him, "Hold it."

Yun Li turned around and was about to leave, but Su Tong put the "umbrella" on his head to keep out the rain, and said the first sentence after a long silence: "What about Mr. Yun?"

How to do? !

What do you ask me to do?

You don't speak or talk, and you are doing boring things. I am thinking about what I should do!What should I rely on to survive in Siming Wonderland?

Yun Li was very tired, and said casually, "What should I do? You do what you want to do, and I'll get my rain."

No matter how Su Tong didn't understand the anxiety of the Siming Immortal, no matter how deep the gap with him was, she could hear the impatience in Yunli's tone.He stood quietly for a while, then passed the "umbrella handle" over: "This is your thing." Yun Li stepped back three steps into the rain, and made another "umbrella" to show Su Tong concern is superfluous.

Yun Li turned around and walked away from Su Tong, and when he glanced back after a few steps, Su Tong was already standing three feet away from him, with his head bowed.

That's where... Yunli remembered: he had seen it in the viewing mirror, it was the tomb of Su Tong's mother Songyi.

And under Su Tong's feet was the soil mixed with his father's blood plasma and meat scraps.

The boy is alone, standing in the white rain curtain, standing on the wasteland that is regarded as taboo.

Yun Li inexplicably sighed deeply, blaming himself for understanding too late, for forgetting earlier that even if the rain in Xiuzhu was worth celebrating, the scars in Su Tong's heart of losing his parents were not caused by the joy brought by a rain. healing.He saw Su Tong slowly bent down, picked up a few stones embedded in the mud, wiped them with his hands, and placed them on the pile of freshly turned graves, forming a neat circle.While doing these things, he let go of the pillar of air that Yunli gave him, and every movement carried a sense of rigorous piety; the raindrops on his body seemed to add some kind of indispensable ritual to this situation Sex, expressing the melancholy similar to "no matter how the wind and rain whip, an inch of grass can't repay the three springs".

After all, Yun Li didn't leave him here alone, even though he had nothing to say, he still walked over, bent down and added another stone inside the circle.

Su Tong took a handful of soil and covered the grave, and Yun Li also took a handful of soil and covered the grave.

Su Tong bowed, and Yun Li also bowed.

When Yunli was about to bend down and kneel down with Su Tong, Su Tong straightened up temporarily and looked at him with slightly surprised eyes.

Yun Li said: "Didn't Mr. Su see it? I think I said something wrong just now, so now I have to ask for Mr. Su's forgiveness."

Su Tong didn't follow his words to say whether to forgive or not, but said abruptly: "It would be great if Mr. Yun came earlier."

If Yunli had come earlier, Su Qiuguang and Songyi probably wouldn't have died.However, from another perspective, this possibility does not exist at all.Because it was the death of Su Qiuguang and Songyi that moved Yunli's mind for Su Tong, Yunli had the idea of ​​meeting the people in his book face to face with Shu Zhouxiu.In short, if Su Tong hadn't been affected, Yunli would not have come even if the plague and drought killed all the bamboo cultivators.

Yun Li: "My condolences, Mr. Su."

Su Tong didn't follow the above and said authentically: "The matter of repairing bamboo was written into a memorial by the prefect of Shuzhou and the masters of the three main departments, and reported it layer by layer. After the emperor knew about the disaster, he ordered the officials in the capital to open warehouses to release grain, but the rice and millet were taken away." There was almost not a centimeter left when the bamboo was repaired along the way." He pressed the soil on the grave mound with his palms as he spoke, as if this would make his mother's residence a little stronger, "At this time, my mother is already sick. Seriously ill, she didn't want to burden Grandma Cheng and Uncle Cheng, so she refused their help...Mother gave all her share of food to my father and me..." He took a deep breath at this point, "She is about to die. When it didn't work, the doctor came... Finally... Finally the doctor said that she starved to death."

Su Tong said a lot in one breath, which was exactly what Yunli wanted.

Ke Yunli was inexplicably unhappy.

Su Tong went back and said, "It would be great if Mr. Yun came earlier." In this case, after the heavy rain, Tian Nong recovers, and Song Yi will not be hopeless.

Apart from superficial semantics, Yunli grasped something else in Su Tong's words.He settled down, and tentatively asked: "This... is the reason why Mr. Su is determined to study and become an official?" His mind was spinning rapidly, and he didn't care whether Su Tong nodded or not—Su Tong's wish was already very clear up.

Yun Li suddenly felt that the voice was no longer his own, so he said, "Young Master Su is both talented and ambitious, and he will definitely be able to bring a clean stream to the country in the future."

That night, Yun Li was lying on the couch in Cheng's house, recalling his own words, and endured for a long time before he raised his hand to slap himself.He came to Xiuzhu to meet Su Tong in order to find out and dispel his wish, so that Su Tong could become a controllable person in his book.It's all right now, he was led away by Su Tong, a word of encouragement may make this boring boy more determined to continue being bored.

Well, for the country to flow into the clear stream?This doesn't sound like a goal that can be achieved in a short while... Yunli thought that he might have to drink the northwest wind for decades due to his own mistakes, and couldn't help but cry out in his heart, "Alas! Alas!"

Yunli was tossed around until Tianming, and he suffered from a headache for a while, and the thought of "it's not too late" pulled him up.

There was flickering light in the crack of Su Tong's door.

Just as Yunli was about to pass by, a faint voice startled him: "Brother, you got up so early?"

Nie Qiu didn't know when he came back. At this time, he was half lying on the other side of the bed in the room, holding his head and crossing his legs.Even though the light was dim, Yun Li could see the thick black under his eyes, and his exhausted appearance matched that weak voice.

Nie Qiu said again: "Brother, since I came back in the middle of the night, I saw you were awake all the time, what were you thinking?"

Come back in the middle of the night...

This guy actually used a spell to hide himself, watching himself from the side.Thinking of the stinky wizard sneaking a peek at the viewing mirror yesterday, Yun Li settled the old and new scores together, and immediately beat him back to his original form with a green light.After being exposed to the green light, Nie Qiu regained energy instantly, hugged her head and said with a playful smile: "Brother is generous, you have to forgive others and forgive others! Spare me, spare my life!"

Yun Li lowered his voice: "Hold me down."

Nie Qiu clasped his palms together: "Yes, yes."

Yunli: "Why don't you hurry up and get out?"

Nie Qiu: "... I am already very sad, and now I know that you are expecting me to go away, brother, wouldn't it be even more sad? Brother, I am so sad that I can't move... You can comfort me, I will Go back and try again?"

Yun Li: "Go to hell."

Nie Qiu: "Wooooow."

Yun Li glanced at Su Tong's door and then at Nie Qiu, after thinking for a while, he sat back on the couch, and said to Nie Qiu, "Actually, I can help you find out about your junior brother." , At the moment, I finally wanted to help others, but was rejected by Nie Qiu: "Xianjun's kindness is appreciated. Xianjun is willing to come here with me, which is considered to be a huge favor to me. You don’t need to bother Xianjun with other private matters.”

Usually, Nie Qiu yelled "little brother", and called it very cheerfully, Yunli was used to it, but at this moment, his string of serious "immortals" made Yunli startled.

"Bro."

"Ok?"

Nie Qiu raised his chin: "Here, Mr. Su."

Yunli turned his head, only to see Su Tong coming out with a book in his hand, and said, "Mr. Yun and Mr. Mie are awake? Grandma Cheng is a late sleeper at the latest. I will make porridge for you two this morning."

Yun Li asked inexplicably, "Do you know how to cook porridge?"

Su Tong: "Yes."

Yunli: "When I first started learning...uh, have you ever fried a pot?"

Nie Qiu's eyes widened, with a look of horror on his face, partly because Yunli was here to share his porridge cooking experience with Su Tong, and usually because he heard that Yunli probably fried the rice when he cooked.After thinking about it, this person is Yunli. It's normal for Yunli to blow up a pot, and it's good if he doesn't blow up people.

Who knows, next Su Tong rolled up the book, nodded and said, "It was blown up."

Nie Qiu choked on her own saliva.

Yunli: "Is it still bombing now?"

Su Tong seemed to be thinking about some serious issue, and after a moment of silence, he slowly uttered two very strict words: "Maybe."

Yun Li clapped his fists and said, "Young Master Su, that's right, cooking porridge is too dangerous, why don't you take me to the street now, let's go out to eat in the morning. What's delicious in Xiuzhu City? Hmm...can't you remember? When I get up, I think there should be steamed buns, right? Okay, let’s go to the street to eat steamed stuffed buns, that’s the deal.”

It doesn't matter whether you eat steamed buns or not, what matters is that Lasu Tong go to the city to play and remedy the "evil consequences" caused by that sentence.

Walking a long way in the morning to eat steamed buns in Xiuzhu City, Nie Qiu really doesn't know what Yunli is thinking.Later, Nie Qiu realized that among these three people, he might be the one whose thinking went off the rails.

Su Tong stared at Yunli's face, staring so hard that Yunli thought there was something on his face.After a long time, Su Tong went back to the room and put the book on the table. When she came out again, she had a few pieces of silver in her hand.Seeing his "posture", Nie Qiu didn't expect him to say anything normal.Sure enough, Su Tong passed between Yunli and Nie Qiu, shook his fist holding Sui Yinzi, and said, "Okay. Mr. Yun...Mr. Nie, let's eat buns."
