Chapter 30

Xie pity still did not look back, said: "Blood rain and flowers?"

Huacheng said: "His Royal Highness."

Xie Lian turned around and said with a smile, "It's the first time I heard you call me that."

The red-clothed boy sat on the mat, put up one leg, and said, "How do you feel?"

Xie Lian thought about it, but after all, he didn't ask him: "Why didn't you call me my brother later?", and only said: "It's okay, it's okay."

He said: "That day in Yujun Mountain, the groom who took me away was you."

The smile on Huacheng's lips deepened, and Xie Lian found that this sentence seemed to be ambiguous, and quickly revised it, and said solemnly: "I mean, the one who pretended to be the groom with Junshan and took me away is you?"

Huacheng said: "I did not disguise the groom."

If I really want to say that, it is true. At that time, the young man did not say that he was the bridegroom Yunyun, but just stopped in front of the sedan chair door, and then stretched out his hand, Xie Lian followed him. Thanks for the pity: "Okay. Then, why did you appear at that time?"

Huacheng Road: "There are only two answers to this question: first, I went there specifically for you, His Royal Highness; second, passing by, very leisurely. Which do you think is more credible?"

After calculating the number of days he spent by his side, Xie Lian sincerely said: "Which one is more credible and dare not say, but you seem to be really busy."

He held his right elbow in his left hand, his chin in his right hand, his eyes circled around Huacheng, nodded, and said: "You are not the same as in the legend."

Huacheng changed his posture, still holding his cheeks in his hands, watching him, and said: "Oh? Then how did you know that I am mine?"

Thanks for the pity, the umbrella under the rain of blood, the silver chain that tinkled, the silver wristband, and I thought that you didn't hide it very seriously, but when it came to my mouth, I didn't know how to change it. Sample. He said solemnly: "You are dressed in red, and you seem to be omniscient, omnipotent, and fearless. No matter how you try, you must be in the realm of 'absolute' and above. Talking about the 'Blood Rain and Flowers', it seems that I can't think of other candidates."

Huacheng smiled and said: "If you say that, can I think you are praising me?"

Thanks for the pity: "Don't you hear that it is?"

Huacheng said again: "After saying so much, why didn't His Royal Highness ask me, what is the purpose of approaching you?"

Thanks for the pity: "If you don't want to say it, I asked, will you tell me?"

Huacheng Road: "Then you can drive me away."

Xie Lian smiled and said: "You are so powerful, even if I drive you away now, what do you really want to do, won't you come back with a new skin?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and at this moment, a screeching sound suddenly broke the brief silence in the Bodhisattva Temple.

The two looked in the direction of the sound, there was no one, only a small black clay pot was rolling on the ground.

It was the small pottery pot that was raising for half a month. It was originally put on the mat by Xie Lian, but I didn't know when it fell down on its own, rolled to the door, and was stopped by the wooden door made by Huacheng. Hit the door. Xie Lian was worried that it would just smash itself into pieces, so he went up and opened the door. The small clay pot rolled all the way to the grass outside the door.

Xie Lian followed behind it, and the small clay pot rolled onto a piece of grass and stood up. It is clearly just a jar, but it gives the illusion that it is looking up at the stars. Huacheng also walked out of the Bodhisattva Temple, and thanked the pot and said, "Ban Yue, are you awake?"

Fortunately, it was already late at night when they returned from the Gobi, otherwise people would see Xie Lian standing outside in the middle of the night and ask a jar what happened to you, and most of them would have to make a fuss.

After a while, a muffled young girl's voice came out of the small jar, "General Hua."

Xie Lian sat down beside it and said: "Ban Yue, you come out to see the stars? Do you want to come out and see."

Huacheng stood aside, leaning against a tree, and said: "She just left Banyue City, it is better to stay in it for a while."

Hearing his opinion, Xie Lian felt that it was very reasonable. After all, after staying in Banyue Kingdom for two hundred years before Banyue, it would be difficult to adapt to a sudden change of place. He said, "Then you should stay there for a while longer. , and then take care of it. This is where I practice, you don't have to worry about anything else, you don't need to worry about those generals and soldiers."

The jar shook twice, not knowing what to say. After a pause, Xie Lian still felt that he had to talk to her about the situation. After considering it for a moment, he said: "Ban Yue, in fact, it's not that your snake is disobedient, it is General Pei who secretly learned your way of controlling snakes. Those people are all It wasn't your snake bite."

Banyue said in a muffled voice, "General Hua, I couldn't move at the time, but I heard it all."

Hearing this, thank you for a moment. Only then did I know that Pei Su had only sealed off her mobility for half a month, and did not seal her consciousness, and said, "It's fine."

After thinking for a while, he said again: "The reason why General Pei did this may be that he still can't bear to watch the Banyue soldiers suffer and wants them to be relieved, but he used the wrong method."

"..." The jar swayed and said, "General Hua, what will happen to Brother Pei Su?"

Xie Lian wrapped his arms around his sleeves and said, "I don't know. However, if you do something wrong, you will have to accept some punishment."

After a while of silence, the jar swayed twice. This time, Xie Lian finally saw it. It turned out that he was nodding like this.

Banyue said: "Although Kemo always scolds him, but brother Pei Su is actually not that bad."

Thanks for the pity: "Really."

Banyue said: "Well."

Banyue has a withdrawn personality since childhood, was rejected by children of the same age, and only played well with a few Central Plains teenagers. Judging from the fact that Pei Su was sent to attack the national city with only 2,000 soldiers, he was probably a little sad in the army. People seem to be the kind of people who are hard to talk, either cold or stuffy, probably there are some similarities. Xie Lian didn't know what to say, Xu Yu said, "By the way, Banyue, Hua Xie is a pseudonym, and I have long since stopped being a general, so you don't have to call me General Hua."

Banyue said: "Then how should I call you?"

This is also a problem. If Ban Yue also seriously called him His Royal Highness, he would always feel a little strange. Xie Lian didn't care about the name, but just remembered some other words and said: "It's up to you, and you can continue to beg General Hua." However, there is a real surname Hua here, and it may be a little confusing to shout. That's it. But after thinking about it again, I thought: "Hua Xie" is of course a pseudonym, and the first character of "Huaguan Wushen" is taken as the surname, so why is "Huacheng" not a pseudonym? They took the pseudonym and chose the same surname. , is also very interesting.

At this time, I heard Banyue again: "I'm sorry, General Hua."

Xie Lian turned his head back and said a little depressingly: "Ban Yue, why do you always apologize to me?" It's not like he looks so sorry at a glance?

Banyue shrank in the jar and said, "I, want to save the people."

Thanks for pity: "…………"

Banyue said: "General Hua, that's what you said at the beginning."

Thanks: "???"

He hurriedly said, "Wait. Wait!"

Hearing him shout, Banyue seemed to be stunned in the jar and said, "What?"

Xie pity glanced at Huacheng standing under the nearby tree with arms folded, and whispered: "I really said this at the beginning?"

This sentence, obviously he loved to talk about it when he was a teenager. In the next few hundred years, he should have never mentioned it at all. Xie Lian was a little unbelievable. Banyue said: "General, you said it."

Xie Lian still wanted to struggle, and said, "No..."

Banyue said seriously: "I said it. Once, you asked everyone what you want to do when you grow up, everyone said it, and finally you said: 'My dream was to save the people'."

"..."

I see. Xie pity covered his forehead and said: "This. Half a month, if you say this casually, you remember what to do so clearly."

Banyue said blankly: "Is it a casual mention? However, General Hua, I think you are speaking very seriously."

Xie pity helplessly, looked up at the sky, and said: "Haha...Is it. Maybe. What else I said, I don't remember."

Banyue said: "You also said, 'Do what you think is right!'"

Xie Lian listened and thought: "...This is really a nonsense... Why do I always like to say this kind of thing... I'm not such a person... Am I such a person??"

Banyue said: "But, I don't know what is right."

Hearing this, Xie Lian was stunned.

Banyue's muffled voice buzzed in the jar: "I seem to be doing the right thing, but the result is that I opened the door to let the enemy troops and slaughtered my clan. My country is gone. But I don't open the door immediately. , Banyue people will flow to the Central Plains and harm more people. General Hua is very kind to me. When I was in the Central Plains, people often threw things for me on the street. However, Kemo is also very good to me, soldiers. They all listen to me. When I come back, I really want to be a national teacher. However, not only did I open the city gate to kill them, but I also didn’t let them eat people. If they didn’t eat people, it would be very painful, and I also There is no relief from their pain."

She was incoherent, and she said a lot of things upside down. Finally, she said blankly: "It seems that no matter what I do, the result is bad. General Hua, I know that I am not doing well, but can you tell me who I am? What went wrong? What went wrong?"

Listening to her question, Xie Lian rubbed the back of his neck silently for a long time, and finally, he said: "I'm sorry, half a month. I didn't know the question you asked before, and now... I don't seem to know either."

Banyue said depressedly: "General Hua, I think I have no idea what I am doing for more than two hundred years."

Hearing her say this, Xie Lian became even more depressed: "Then, haven't I lived in vain for more than 800 years?"

For half a month, a ghost stayed in the jar and looked at the starry sky alone, calm down, Xie Lian and Huacheng returned to the Bodhisattva Temple. After closing the door, Huacheng said: "Pei Su hates Banyue people so much, how could he do this because he couldn't bear the suffering of Banyue soldiers?"

Xie Lian sighed and said: "Anyway, it's all speculation. For half a month, let's try to pick it up and say it sounding grand."

After thinking about it, he still shook his head and said, "If you really want Banyue to be freed from Banyue Kingdom as soon as possible, Pei Su can obviously choose to clear Banyueguan, but he has to choose the method of bringing living people into the customs to feed ghosts. Really brave."

Huacheng said: "He can't. Take people to clear, you have to go from Heaven."

Thanks for the pity: "How about walking from Heaven?"

Huacheng said leisurely: "It's very bad. Every batch of priests who went from Heavenly Court, where they went, and what they were going to do, all remembered clearly. When the sky sent people down, it is bound to completely clean up the entire Banyueguan. , your little girl Banyue is no exception. Of course he chose to cover it by himself, all he wanted to do was to lead some living people to feed the ghosts in his spare time."

Having said this, he smiled and said, "A soaring priest, mortals' lives, in their eyes, are naturally inferior to ants."

Xie Lian did not comment on his sentence, only said: "Then he can also quietly be a clone of himself to clean up those Banyue soldiers."

Huacheng Road: "The power of the clone will be weakened. You have also seen the clone of Pei Suhua, Ah Zhao, who can't solve so many soldiers for half a month. He can only die, at best, to dispel a wave of grievances."

Xie Lian glanced at him and remembered that Saburo had killed all the Banyue soldiers at the bottom of the pit in an instant after he jumped down from the Sinner's Pit. He turned around and said, "Your clone is really powerful."

Huacheng raised his eyebrows at him and said: "Of course. However, I am the deity."

Hearing this, Xie Lian no longer thought about anything else, turned his head, slightly surprised, and said, "Huh? Are you the deity?"

Huacheng Road: "If it is fake, it will be replaced."

If you want to blame him, after saying this, the expression seems to be saying that you are asking for your own experience. Therefore, before Xie Lian realized what he had done, he had already raised a finger, Huacheng poked on the cheek.

After poking, Xie Lian woke up suddenly, and screamed badly in his heart. He was just curious about how the Ghost King's Ghost Skin felt in his heart. He didn't expect his body to be faster than his mind, so he raised his hand and poked it, which was really outrageous.

Suddenly being stabbed in the face, Huacheng seemed to be slightly surprised, but he was always calm, his expression quickly calmed down, he didn't say anything, but his eyebrows were raised higher, as if waiting for his explanation, The smile in his eyes was unmistakable. Of course, Xie Lian couldn't come up with any explanation. He looked at the finger and hid it without showing any traces. He said casually: "Yes, yes."

Huacheng finally laughed out, hugged his arms, tilted his head, and asked him: "Do you think my skin is good?"

Xie Lian sincerely said: "Very good. But..."

Huacheng Road: "But what?"

Xie pity stared at his face and looked carefully for a while. Finally, he said, "However, can I see what you look like?"

Since he just said "this skin", it means that although this body is the deity, the skin appearance is not the real appearance. The appearance of this young man is not his true face.

This time, Huacheng did not answer immediately. He put down his arm, wonder if it was an illusion of gratitude, but he always felt that his eyes were a little darker, and a heart couldn't help but lift a little.
