Chapter 76
love for a long time...
Just subconsciously trying to refute this sentence, suddenly, a picture flashed in Shen Qingyan's mind...
That was when he rejected Bo Yunyi's confession for the first time!
Maybe people's thinking is indeed inertial. At this time, Shen Qingyan belatedly remembered that the conversation between the two of them just now seemed familiar.And the memory of cultivators has always been very good. Shen Qingyan thought about it carefully in his mind, and soon realized why this conversation seemed familiar:
At that time, when he rejected Bo Yunyi, he used exactly the same sentence:
"I, Shen Qingyan, don't believe in love at first sight in this world."
And how did Bo Yunyi answer back then?
"Since he doesn't believe in love at first sight, I'll let him experience love at first sight!!!"
The barrage font of Tuhaojin is still shining brightly in front of my eyes, and the lovesickness red thread in my hand has become extremely hot in vain.For the first time in Shen Qingyan's life, he was glad that he did not start the live broadcast now: Otherwise, the scene at this moment would definitely be remembered by all the audience, and together with the previous scene, it would become one of the famous series of "the anchor was accidentally caught in a routine" on the Zhoutian platform——
and many more.
Shen Qingyan suddenly came to her senses, and calmly asked Bo Yunyi:
"Are you changing the subject?"
Bo Yunyi's fingertips trembled slightly, then she smiled nonchalantly:
"Change the subject? How is it possible..."
Shen Qingyan's expression became serious, and he locked the system that had been watching the show invisibly into the small dark room, and then ignored Shen Wangxi's protest of "I am your ancestor", and stuffed him and his jade pendant into the storage bag , then straightened up and looked at Bo Yunyi.
"Actually, I think it's weird for you to do this."
Although looking at Bo Yunyi, Shen Qingyan's eyes did not fall on Bo Yunyi's body, but focused on his feet, looking at the moonless shadow under his robe:
"Show me the mustard ring first, and then tell me the origins of the items in it one by one. There is not even the slightest concealment in it, and you can hear the problem just by listening to it... I thought you did this because you have something to tell Me, but why when I ask a question, you have to talk about him?"
"If there are any secrets that you don't want me to know, wouldn't it be better to hide them firmly from the beginning?"
Why do you want to show me the flaws, but you start to regret it when things come to an end?
In Shen Qingyan's questioning, the smile on Bo Yunyi's face gradually faded.He stood there silently, as quiet as a rock, and the night wind gently blew the hem of his robe, causing shallow ripples like waves. After a long time, he sighed softly:
"...Because I'm still very selfish after all."
Selfish?
The doubts in Shen Qingyan's heart were fleeting.Before he could open his mouth to ask, Bo Yunyi's voice sounded in his ear:
"I've always been afraid to tell you that the first time I saw you was 960 years ago."
— Eighteen thousand nine hundred and sixty-two years.
Shen Qingyan's eyelids trembled in shock at the huge number, and he forgot what he hadn't said in an instant.He suddenly raised his head to look at Bo Yunyi, only to find that Bo Yunyi was just like himself a moment ago, deliberately avoiding his gaze, lowering his eyelids to hide the look in his eyes.
He is avoiding his sight!
——He is guilty!
Shen Qingyan immediately knew what this meant.
Guilty heart... Bo Yunyi, who has always been open-minded, peaceful, and never obsessed with everything, is actually guilty of heart... This means—this means that what he just said is true!
The first time he met "himself" was really 960 years ago!
There was a "buzz" in Shen Qingyan's mind, and he felt that what he was most worried about and feared had suddenly come true. Bo Yunyi loved him not because he was him, but as a substitute for another "him"—
And I actually fell in love with him!
When she realized this, Shen Qingyan couldn't help but tighten her lips, feeling that her mouth was full of bitterness, even the newly peeled lotus seed cores this summer didn't have such bitterness.
Almost subconsciously, he retorted without thinking:
"More than 8000 years? Are you [-] years old this year? I remember that real Bo Yunyi Bo is only this year—"
It seems that emphasizing this point can separate Bo Yunyi from that period of more than 8000 years of previous life experience.
"Bo Yunyi is naturally not eighteen thousand years old."
Bo Yunyi interrupted Shen Qingyan's words, and he stood there, silent for a while, before uttering a word with difficulty: "...but Ling Yichen did."
After he finished this short sentence, he fell silent again, his expression was full of fatigue, as if uttering the name Ling Yichen had exhausted all his strength.
... Ling Yichen.
Who is Ling Yichen?
Shen Qingyan was convinced that she didn't know him at all.
He exhausted his mind, trying to find even a trace of the name from his memory, his subconscious, and even his own soul.Just a shadow is enough: as long as there is a shadow, Shen Qingyan can connect the current self with the "back then" in Bo Yunyi's mouth——
—but no, not a cent.
Bo Yunyi was still talking, Shen Qingyan watched his mouth open and close, couldn't help leaning his back gently on a dead tree behind him: he had to do this, because at this moment, even a trace of strength in his body could not be raised. I can't get up.
The entire woodland was so silent that there was no sound, only Bo Yunyi's voice resounded in the quiet and cold moonlight, with a trace of unnatural hoarseness:
"Perhaps you don't know, there should be Ling Yichen in this world. He cultivated loosely, built a foundation at a young age, lived forever at a hundred years old, and ascended after a thousand years... It seems that he is already a fairy among the gods, and He is a high-ranking immortal."
"He should have attained the Tao early, he should have soared, he should have stood high, and he should have lived forever."
"... In this life, he should have soared above the heavens, with no dust under his eyes."
The two people on the forest ground were quiet for a long time, and finally Shen Qingyan uttered a word softly:
"it should."
"Yes, it should."
Bo Yunyi slowly closed her eyes.
"I know you don't know Ling Yichen, and it's impossible for anyone in this world to know Ling Yichen, because Ling Yichen has long since ceased to exist... He has completely ceased to exist, from the past to the future, from the beginning to the end. In the end, there will be no more Ling Yichen appearing in the tens of thousands of planes in the whole world... only Bo Yunyi."
"Only Bo Yunyi is left."
"This is the price you have to pay for reversing time and space."
- Boom!
At the moment when the words "reversal of time and space" blurted out, there was a thunderbolt in the night cleared by Langyue.Shen Qingyan couldn't help but took a step forward - at that moment he seemed to see a black lightning falling from the sky, and Kerala struck Bo Yunyi's body.
Bo Yunyi was swayed by the split, but he didn't dodge or hide, he finally turned his head to look at Shen Qingyan, but Shen Qingyan wished that he didn't turn his head at this moment.
Sure enough, his eyes fell on the step he took. Bao Yunyi was pale and her breath was scattered, but she looked at Shen Qingyan and smiled softly:
"Are you worried about me?"
"No."
Shen Qingyan said forcefully.He turned his face sideways and retracted his feet, forcing himself not to look at the bloodshot overflowing from his lips.
Even if he deliberately turned his face away, Shen Qingyan could still feel Bo Yunyi's gaze on him, that gaze made him shy and hot before, but now it was more complicated.
"You're worried about me."
He heard Bo Yunyi say firmly.
Shen Qingyan really wanted to refute "no" immediately, but when she glanced over from the corner of her eye, she found the back of his right hand hanging by his side, and there was a conspicuous red mark on the back of his hand - Bo Yunyi obviously used the back of his hand to spill blood from his lips erased.But Shen Qingyan didn't hear any sound other than the two people's voices, not even the soft sound of the porcelain pills colliding.
So that unspoken rebuttal was immediately forgotten by him, and without thinking, Shen Qingyan frowned and said:
"Did you not bring any medicine?"
As he spoke, he opened the system panel subconsciously, and while opening the mall interface, he said, "If you are injured, you have to take medicine. Even if you are a reincarnated immortal, it is difficult to adjust your breathing by yourself—"
When she said this, she suddenly remembered Bo Yunyi's identity, and abruptly swallowed all the remaining instructions.Shen Qingyan flipped through the list of medicines without saying a word, and bought the elixir at the top that only sold for one piece, and after buying it, he threw it away, throwing the elixir worth half his net worth to him without looking at it. Touching Bo Yunyi is like throwing a stone.
"Eat it."
Shen Qingyan only said three words.
Bo Yunyi held the medicine bottle but didn't take it right away, but fixedly looked at Shen Qingyan, and asked with a glimmer of hope:
"We can still be together, can't we?"
Shen Qingyan lowered his eyes, as if looking around and said to him: "I also worry about the life and death of my friends."
Hearing this, Bo Yunyi gave a wry smile, opened the porcelain bottle, and swallowed the pill in one gulp.
Seeing that he had taken the medicine, Shen Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief, and was thinking about how to speak next, when she heard Bao Yunyi whisper:
"I knew it was going to be like this."
"...you, you usually seem gentle and kind, but you are actually the most difficult to get close to. There are many people who approach you, but few people enter your heart. Only in this way, you can't tolerate deception and betrayal... The person you have disappointed once will never walk into your heart again."
"...Just like that Hong Wenming in the shop."
Shen Qingyan's heart skipped a beat: Indeed, ever since Hong Wenming spoke for the Canghua Sect, Shen Qingyan never regarded him as "one of his own".Although he still stays in the shop and talks and jokes as before, but he treats the other party better than being close to Ling Song.
It's not surprising that Bo Yunyi knew about this, but he used Hong Wenming as an example, which made Shen Qingyan unable to bear a trace of fantasy: keeping Hong Wenming in the store was just his whim, and it wasn't something that happened by chance. coincide.In Bo Yunyi's previous life called "Ling Yichen", it's impossible that Hong Wenming also appeared, right?Or to take a step back, it is impossible for Hong Wenming to "deceive and betray" him, right?
Is it possible that the self that Bo Yunyi loves is actually herself, not another pure stranger?
