Murong paper on the snow mountain

Chapter 57 and the protagonist column

"This is called the Yin-Yang Knot. According to legend... it is one of the magic weapons commonly used by Taoist couples to practice together in ancient times."

"A magic weapon?" Ye Pu frowned.

"When the Taoists both practiced immortality, in order to prevent the difference in progress from being too large, they used this magic weapon to bind the two of them. As long as the knot is unbroken for a day, this knot will be able to ignore yin and yang and balance the fate of the two."

"Master, what does that mean?"

"It means... if this thing is tied between me and him, my lifespan... my lifespan can be divided in half with him! He lives one more year, and I live one less year. As long as it is less than my Life is over, as long as I am still alive, he will not die!"

When Ye Pu heard the words, he couldn't believe his ears: "What yin and yang knot! Master, are you insane? What about cultivating immortals? Where have mortals ever heard of someone who can cultivate immortals? How can such rumors, such deceitful things? letter?"

"...Ordinary people can't cultivate immortals, right? Oh, but ordinary people shouldn't be able to call wind and rain, right?"

Ye Pu was tongue-tied.

"Ye Pu, you don't know how to fight. My master Wei Sanyi is your ancestor. That man... is unpredictable, far beyond ordinary people's imagination, and the treasures he holds are definitely not commonplace. I even saw him with my own eyes back then. He makes bones and flesh, brings people back to life after death, and I have seen him tie this yin-yang knot for a couple in need who are willing to live and die together."

"'Yin and Yang unite, never separate again.' If, if I can use this... just tie that person's life, if it is true..."

Murong Zhi held the black-and-white knot in his hand, muttering to himself.

If this is true, from now on, will that person...be completely his?

People belong to him, and so does his life.No more worries, no more doubts.

After all, he is the long-lived one, while Xie Lu is the short-lived one, so once they get married, from now on, Xie Lu's life will all depend on him.For every day he lived, Xie Lu had to accompany him for one day; for one year of his life, Xie Lu had to accompany him for one year.

Even if he wanted to leave again, and wanted to go back to that King Ning, he couldn't leave.

Because, if you dare to lie to me again... At worst, you will die together?

Anyway, I am not afraid.

Just as he was thinking, a black wind suddenly hit his face, before Murong Zhi could dodge, the knot in his hand fell into Ye Pu's hands.

"Ye Pu, what are you doing—!"

The young man didn't say a word, he just jumped back, lit the lightness kung fu and came out of the window.Murong Zhi hurriedly chased after him, until he reached his bedroom.Seeing that the young man was already sitting on Xie Lu's bed, his hands were clutched tightly on the neck of the bed with his eyes closed.

"If this... If this mirror really has the miraculous effect that the master said, Ye Pu can't let the master use it! If the master insists on going his own way, the apprentice should break the rope first and kill this person first!"

"Ye Pu, are you crazy?! Come down! If you dare to move a finger of him, I will never forgive you in my life!"

"Master, Ye Pu doesn't understand! What's so good about him?! Why is it worthwhile for you to treat him like this when he lied to you back then? You even asked you to sacrifice your own life in exchange for him to live a few more years? Master, hello Confused!"

Confused?Right, I must be old and confused.

... What's the good, you ask him what's the good?

have no idea.Murong Zhi herself also found it ridiculous.

If I knew what was good about him, how could I hate my uselessness and cowardice so much now?Knowing that he is smiling all day long and not knowing what is going on in his heart, if he does not die, he may still have to escape in the future, knowing that using his own life to restrain him in this way may still be nothing more than a self-deception in the end——

But still... can't bear him, can't let him go.

Still wanting him to live, wanting him to stay by my side, it's like being caught in a lovesickness Gu that can't be cured.Even if he always makes himself angry every day after that, even if he is tied up and cannot be free, the two will hate each other in the end, and both of them will die happily.

In short, just can't let him go.

The days together have never been forgotten over the years; but after separation, the days have become extremely long.

Loved him, hated him.Expected, despaired, numb, and forgotten.Obviously, what I should never forget is the loneliness and quilt and the insomnia with long lights, but on such nights, in order to let myself fall asleep peacefully, I always love to hum the little song I used to lull Xie Lv to sleep, pretending to be him. Still by my side.

So, night after night, it was still an old dream.What he was thinking about was still the child's exuberance when he was by his side, his lovely and bright smile, and his narrow expression when he was with him.

Obviously, I want to forget too.

Bi anyone wants to hate him, Bi anyone wants to never think of him again.

But, but.

He still likes him more than anyone else, and loves him more deeply than anyone else.

After all, Ye Pu had only been on the mountain for half a year, and he didn't have half of Murong Zhi's martial arts. After being swept lightly by him, he got off the bed and knelt on the ground.

"Give it to me." Murong Zhi stretched out his hand to the child.

"Master, if, if you really want to share half, if you really want to share half with him - just give him half of the disciple's life! Master! Disciple is still young! Disciple doesn't want Master to ruin himself for this kind of person!"

"..."

Murong Zhi was in a daze, he stared blankly at the child looking at him at this moment, he couldn't tell whether it was surprise or bewilderment.

He finally realized that in the past, he seemed to have never looked at the child Ye Pu carefully.

Now, the tears in the young man's eyes were nakedly shining with anger, jealousy and unwillingness that he had never noticed before. For a moment, it was like a heavy hammer hitting the bottom of his heart, causing confusion.

Ye Pu, you...

How could you... how could you...

Is it me, is it my illusion?Yes, I must be thinking too much.This child just didn't like Xie Lv from the very beginning, but he just felt sorry for his obsession.Nothing else, just master and apprentice, how could there be anything else?

Yes.After thinking about it, it must be so.

"Ye Pu, you are a good boy. But this is the grievance between me and him. You don't know all about the past. Let me... settle it with him."

……

Once the yin-yang knot is tied, it takes a whole day to form.

Murong Zhi was lying beside Xie Lv, the little finger of his right hand was tied tightly with the knot of the little finger of his left hand.I am not afraid of anything else, but the only thing I am afraid of is that Xie Lu can't even survive this mere day.

"...don't die. Xie Lu, did you hear that?"

"One day is fine, I just want you... last one day."

"As long as you can survive one day, as long as you can live. No matter what the future is, no matter whether you treat me sincerely or falsely, no matter whether you regret or hate me in the future, I will admit it! Did you hear me? I admit it!"

So, don't go.

In this life, let me be stupid again this time, and this last time.

"Didn't you say before that no matter what I ask you to do, you must obey me? Xie Lv, I have no other requirements. Only this one, you have to promise."

Xie Lu was lying heavily on the bed, his consciousness was already dissociated, wandering on the edge of yin and yang.Even his whole body became lighter, and the pale road of Biluohuangquan was already paved in front of him.

"Don't go."

"Xie Lu, you are not allowed to go. Don't go——don't go!"

Murong Zhi's voice from far and near echoed in his ears, pulling him and blocking his steps.He stared blankly at the endless road ahead, but when he looked back, it was pitch black.

"You...you have betrayed me once, how can you betray me a second time?"

"Xie Lu, listen, I, Murong Zhi, swear here, if you abandon me again in this life, I will never forgive you."

"If you leave, I will burn all your things! Everything you bought, what you gave me, what you touched, and what you used will be burned! I will burn your body too, out of sight and out of mind Don't bother, I will never think of you again forever!"

"One day, just one day! I just...as long as you stay one more day!"

"Little Jiang, one day, just one day..."

A paper...

I know, I know, don't cry.

I do not go.I will I will hold on, for you.

I promise you.

……

The room was dim, with a lamp like a torch.

Xie Lv only felt that his throat was extremely thirsty.The dark bed beams, the airtight room, he really never thought that he could open his eyes again.

Am I... still alive?

This place...isn't it some underworld, isn't it some hell?

There was a person sitting beside the bed, a person that Xie Lu never expected to appear here.Brocade clothes, with a charming fragrance all over her body, gently lifted the fox mask covering her face, revealing the typical pair of red phoenix eyes and charming face, and the corners of her lips curled up like a fox.

Xie Lv's pupils suddenly constricted.

Lord Ning's Mansion · Shadow Pavilion, the "fox-faced ghost" Xun Chang.

About Xun Chang, Xie Lv didn't know much about him, only that he was born as a lowly slave, and he was bought by the Shadow Pavilion of King Ning's Mansion as a killer training when he was young.Because of his extraordinary talent and ability to understand people's hearts, he has risen to the top, and has become King Ning's most trusted confidant at a young age.

Back then when he was working beside King Ning, Xie Lu was in the light and the Shadow Pavilion was in the dark, but Xie Lu couldn't understand the cunning and insidiousness in Xun Chang's eyes and the elusiveness in his daily life, so they didn't have much interaction with each other.

I only know that this person is absolutely not to be messed with.Wearing a fox mask and wearing musk, Xie Lv always wondered if he was some kind of fox fairy or something.

Just because he knows this fox too well.So he knows better than anyone else that everyone else can die, but the fox fairy can't die either!

So this place is definitely not a hell, after all, it is absolutely impossible to meet goblins in the hell.

"It's really miserable for Xun to see the general like this. Hehe, it's almost... I don't dare to recognize the general." The man smiled and shook his head with a rather happy expression.

Then Xie Lv's heart suddenly moved, and he subconsciously looked to the side, only to see that the person he was thinking about was sleeping beside him at the moment, with his eyes closed, and he could still see the heaving of his chest.
