Emperor Phoenix

Chapter 214

Injustice, is it?
She has no regrets.

The past 15 years of glazed glass were not lived by herself, but what she really lived was the last year.

To be able to live this period of time wholeheartedly and without scruples, to be able to love someone so wholeheartedly and with unlimited longing.

very nice.

The water is so heavy...

But... so warm.

With the last bit of strength, she gently leaned against him beside him.

He didn't avoid it, but pulled her to his side considerately, she smiled with satisfaction... The hug she could never dream of in this life, the last hug, finally fulfilled herself in this way... It's great.

Her hands are in his hands, her whole body is in his arms.

Hand in hand with your son, you cannot grow old together.

But that's okay……

She smiled and closed her eyes.

Suxuan... I'm glad I met you in this life.

The sound of the water is long, and there is a faint light in the darkness. There is still a faint vibration from above, and it has become gentle when it extends to the depths of the ground. It's like an endless dream.

Suxuan felt that the hand of the woman beside her was getting colder and her movements gradually slowed down. She seemed a little cold and leaned towards him.

No matter how close you are in the cold water, there is no possibility of heat transmission, Suxuan still pulled her towards him pitifully, bearing all her weight, the woman lay comfortably in his arms, without any strength at all. Need to use it.

This girl... is still very cute... He has always treated her like a younger sister. In the Blazing Gang, all the entanglement and joy belonged to her. He was just superficial and helpless, tolerant of this child capricious.

Today, it probably broke her heart... Fortunately, although this child is domineering, he is not bad at heart. When she was in the Blazing Gang, she clinged too tightly and made herself angry. She cried hard, turned around and immediately Laughed again.

Su Xuan thought lightly, she didn't know that there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

Ahead, the water is getting shallower, and the stairs can be vaguely seen.

Suxuan's eyes showed joy, and said: "Miss Shui, look——"

He stopped abruptly.

Why is the girl in my arms suddenly heavier?
This weight would not be felt by a master like him, but the moment he pulled out of his thoughts and raised his head to look ahead, the head resting on his neck in his arms did not rise accordingly.

There was a bang in Su Xuan's heart.

Almost flustered, he went to lift her head.

The wet face of the young girl in front of her, her eyebrows and hair were soaked black by water, her slender eyelashes were tightly closed, under the eyelashes, there was an ominous pale color on her cheeks.

Even the lips are frosty white.

There is a smile on the corner of the lips, like a faint flower that is about to fall.

Suxuan stared at that smile, her hands, which had been stable all her life, suddenly began to tremble.

He shook his hands and gently touched her breath.

"Lingling!"

A loud shout startled Xiao Jue and the others who had already left the water channel and climbed up the stairs. Qin Changge, who was still half underwater, suddenly looked back, and saw Su Xuan, who was a few feet away behind him, in the dark background of the deep water channel. Standing in the water, holding the girl in both hands, the girl's black hair is loose, and her hands hang down limply in a lifeless posture.

Qin Changge felt cold all over, and Huo Di's legs went limp and he knocked on the steps.

Xiao Jue hurried to help her, Qin Changge pushed him away, turned around and waded towards Suxuan, groping desperately for the waterproof fire bag from his arms while walking forward with difficulty.

Su Xuan stood in the water, motionless.

"Crack!"

Ban Yan lit the torch.

Qin Changge stopped in the water, in front of Suxuan.

The flickering flames illuminated the men and women in the water, and shone on the woman's drooping hand. She had lost one index finger on her right hand. Where the severed finger was soaked white, reddish drops dripped uncontrollably. Fresh blood, falling into the water, blew away the faint streaks of blood, which disappeared in an instant.

Qin Changge stared at the crippled hand that was still bleeding, but felt cold hands and feet, she called softly, "Suxuan...Suxuan..."

Su Xuan slowly raised his head.

His face was pale and unhuman.

His voice resounded in the empty secret passage, as if he was far away from the world of mortals, "...why didn't I notice it?"

Qin Changge was silent... In the water, she couldn't feel the temperature and the passing of blood. She must have been bleeding... Mixed into the water, the tears shed silently, no one can know.

Suxuan has such a casual temperament, she didn't move, he thought she was going to be lazy, he protected her in his arms, and didn't want her to swim hard, he walked all the way, looking at the figure in front of him, he didn't know the woman next to him Life goes with the water bit by bit.

Looking at Shui Lingling's lifeless face, Qin Changge knew that there was no hope of saving that child, what was she thinking about the moment before she died?
Su Xuan was still asking in a daze, "Why didn't I notice?"

Qin Changge suddenly felt a stomachache, and her internal organs were churned together as if being squeezed by giant hands. She bent down deeply, and big drops of cold sweat broke out.

It's a question that... can never be answered, a question that can never be answered.

Because the answer is too cruel.

Xiao Jue’s worried inquiry sounded in his ears, but it was so chaotic that he couldn’t hear anything clearly, the surroundings were quiet, eerie, noisy and chaotic, and scenes passed by... the girl with a crisp smile like a silver bell... the bell under the moonlight Strange-shaped insects and snakes jumping out of the sky...the crying child shaking the caterpillars in his pants...the woman who was fleeing desperately on the roof with Chu Feihuan on her back...the destruction of Yilan...the big one on the cliff Crying...the hesitation and being squeezed in front of the stone mountain...the heavy and weird expression in the secret room...she reached out to trigger the switch...her hand was always in the bronze basin...she didn't allow her to get close...the shape of the stone frog's mouth "Blood lotus juice" that resembles human blood...

So many past events came rushing in, changing and ups and downs, surging in her mind like waves, and finally only the young man with a bright face and a smile was left, laughing triumphantly on the top of the peak, "Sister, don't you believe it?" Can I rip his pants off?"

Lingling.

I once promised you to watch Suxuan get his pants stripped together, but now I am standing in the water, watching Suxuan holding your body and asking each other blankly.

I once gave you women's clothes in exchange, so that you could appear charming in front of your sweetheart, but now I use the wit of my words to push you to a dead end.

In my life, I have never been soft-hearted in killing people, and I have never frowned when I hurt others; in my life, I have encountered the enemy brazenly, and I have never been afraid of hardships; Newborn; my whole life has been turned upside down, playing with people's hearts, using all schemes and tricks.

But this time, I finally got it wrong.

The secret path has not yet been opened, but a small gust of wind blew up from nowhere, swirling close to the water surface, forming delicate vortexes, reminiscent, vaguely as if, the child who passed away once had a pair of the most beautiful pair in the world. dimples.

In the wind, Suxuan hugged the cold body of the woman in his arms, his expression was empty for a moment.

In the wind, the founding queen, who looked down on the world and never bowed her head, bowed deeply for the first time in her life because of pain.

Her bent position was hard and painful.

It's like a gesture of atonement.

Suxuan slowly raised his eyes and looked at Qin Changge. He had no expression in his eyes, and his pupils were as dark as a deep prison that would never see the light of day. He hugged Shui Lingling and slowly walked around Qin Changge.

The forward steps were a bit staggering, Xiao Jue beside Qin Changge subconsciously wanted to hold his shoulder, but at the moment when he was about to touch him, he withdrew his hand.

Let him... be alone...

Xiao Jue looked at his back, which was heavy and floating, making one feel that if he accidentally touched it, it would immediately shatter into thousands of pieces and completely collapse.

The deep water at this moment floods the embankment of all the joys in the world, how long will it take before you can struggle out?
Xiao Jue sighed leisurely, he is also a person who has been in pain, the Changle demon fire has burned up his joy for three years, he knows Su Xuan's feelings at this moment better than anyone else, not to mention, Su Xuan may be more painful than him A piece of self-blame and guilt of "I don't kill Qingqing, Qingqing died because of me".

And... a long song.

Supporting Qin Changge worriedly, Xiao Jue carefully watched her expression - in Changge's life, he was decisive and ruthless, but he didn't hurt the innocent, and he didn't owe anything to people's hearts, but what happened today...

No one is wrong, but big mistakes are made.

The world makes fun of people, as soon as it happens.

The sound of water is long and flowing, never knowing the sorrow of the world.

Suxuan hugged Shui Lingling, walked ashore slowly, went up a few steps, and found another bronze lamp in the shape of a virgin basin.

In the basin, there was indeed a round hole. Earlier, at the other end of the passage, Shui Lingling put his finger into that hole, thus losing his finger and life.

Xiao Jue and Qin Changge immediately reached out their hands at the same time, but Su Xuan resolutely brushed them away. He was so strong that he swung Qin Changge staggeringly. Xiao Jue stretched out his hand to hold her, sighed deeply, and retreated silently. leave.

Suxuan stuck his finger into the round hole, hooked it lightly, and there was a bang, a portal suddenly appeared in front of what seemed to be only a mountain wall, and it slowly opened.

Qin Changge stared at Suxuan's hand.

No blood came out.

Su Xuan slowly withdrew his hand, his fingers were intact, he seemed to be looking at his uninjured hand with some regret, and was in a daze.

Qin Changge looked back at the end of the secluded waterway. In the secret room of the Shui family that was no longer visible, what kind of damage was set up by the mechanism that opened the door to punish the children of the Shui family who leaked the important place where the ancestors of the family stopped without authorization? It will become an eternal mystery, accompanied by the eternal sleep of this girl, sunk forever, no one can solve it.

Qin Changge could only roughly guess that it was the mechanism of the blood sacrifice. The blood gushed out and accumulated to a certain position. When the switch was opened to open the secret door, the excess blood flowed out of the stone frog's mouth.

And Shui Lingling's hesitation at the beginning was due to her different physique from ordinary people. Others were just wounds of stumps, but to her it became a cut of death. Qin Changge deeply hated himself for not thinking that there is a kind of person who can't bleeding.
