"Have I really never seen you, Xu Qingyan?"

She said softly.

Different from the soft tone before.

The faint nostalgia that seemed to be mixed in froze Xu Qingyan's expression.

Before Xu Qingyan could react, the woman in front of him reached out her hand and gently touched the veil.

Then, at this moment that Xu Qingyan had not expected and had no preparation for, he took off the veil bit by bit.

It was as solemn as finally revealing the truth at the last moment, and as cruel as revealing some scars.

That is a perfect face.

A delicate oval face with a jawline that is neither too sharp nor too round.

The arc is just right, and the light seems to be unable to stand on it.

The lips are small and attractive with beautiful curves, the nose is straight, and the cheeks are pink.

It seems to illustrate the perfection of this woman's structure.

It's just that Xu Qingyan didn't need to associate anything with her face. In fact, at some point before, he no longer needed such evidence.

Until she gently took off her veil, raised the corners of her lips, and said those words to Xu Qingyan.

"Nichang. My name is Nichang, what's yours?"

These words seemed to awaken some distant memory.

That was indeed a memory that Xu Qingyan had ignored for a long time.

In fact, the time was not long, because it happened shortly before his rebirth.

It was a dull, bleak and depressing memory.

That was when I was being hunted down and had nowhere to go, was in a state of disgrace, and was covered in wounds.

Right in Beixuanzhou.

It was by a water cave, and there was a snake demon who had been practicing for three hundred years, and a dying woman whose face was disfigured and whose skin was almost intact.

At that time, Xu Qingyan, who was desperate and frustrated and felt that he had no way out, happened to pass by Beixuanzhou and saw this scene.

The snake demon was ready to eat the woman whose original appearance could no longer be seen, in order to replenish his cultivation.

Xu Qingyan had no reason to make a move, because even if he did, it would probably just be buy one get one free.

Moreover, he felt that even if the woman was rescued, she would have no chance of survival given her injuries.

The corroded skin was not the most important thing, the key point was that the snake venom had already penetrated her meridians.

But Xu Qingyan still took action.

Perhaps dying like this would be better than being killed by those women?

Maybe I feel that I have been doing good things all my life, so doing one more thing can be considered a complete success.

So he went up, using almost all his strength and with the determination to die, he killed the snake demon.

He is not dead.

He also tried to think of some way to save the woman.

The other party regained consciousness, but was unable to move. The snake venom had already made her lose her basic ability to move.

There were only so many things Xu Qingyan could do. Even though she didn't say anything, he still took good care of her during that period.

Until one day she finally spoke.

"I am already dying, so please don't worry too much, just let me die quietly here."

At that time, her voice was dry and hoarse, which was caused by the snake venom.

Xu Qingyan just looked at the woman who covered her face with a cloth, revealing only a pair of relatively intact eyes.

"Since I have saved you, I have to bury you with my own hands. This is the best way to send you off to the west."

The woman seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

"You really don't know how to comfort people."

Xu Qingyan sat beside her, looking up at the gradually darkening sky, and couldn't help laughing.

"Why should I comfort you? I am also going to die. How can I still be in the mood to comfort others?"

"Why do you want to die?"

"How can I put it... I have been a good person all my life, but then fate teased me. Everyone I have helped has become my enemy. There is nothing much to say. It is fate that plays tricks on me. Those who deserve to die will die."

The woman was silent for a while.

“Good people shouldn’t end up like this.”

Xu Qingyan smiled, "There is nothing wrong in this world. For example, good people don't have a good ending, and evil can live for thousands of years. For example, you practiced for a lifetime, but you didn't expect that you would die here because of a snake demon, and you didn't expect that a stranger like me would accompany you before you died. This is probably fate."

The woman couldn't help coughing.

Blood spurted.

Xu Qingyan calmly fed the remaining few pills to the other party.

The woman's eyes were filled with tears due to pain.

"No need to give it to me...it would be better to keep it for yourself."

"What's the point of me keeping it? I've already said that I don't care about these things anymore."

"Do you regret being a good person?"

"Of course I regret it. I won't say anything like I have a clear conscience. The world owes me, so of course I have to blame the world and everyone."

Xu Qingyan was in a very relaxed state at the time, and his mental state could be said to have reached a new peak.

It means giving up on yourself, blaming the heavens and the earth, and going all out.

"Shouldn't I blame myself for not being strong enough and not doing things well enough?"

The woman asked.

Xu Qingyan looked at the man who had changed beyond all recognition with amusement.

"That may be one of the reasons, but no one would willingly admit their failure, right? No one wants to admit that they haven't found the best way to crack life and destiny. Just like you and me now. Girl, what's your name?"

"What's wrong."

"After I bury you, I will also have to erect a tombstone for you. I don't even know your name, so what should I engrave on it?"

"I now believe that you have been a good person all your life."

She said this as if it was ironic, but Xu Qingyan was not unhappy at the time, but was relieved instead.

"Who says it's not..."

"No need to erect a monument for me. No one will remember me for long anyway. But I can tell you my name."

"Is it."

"Nichang, my name is Nichang, what's yours?"

she asked.

Xu Qingyan couldn't help but laugh, "Are you planning to erect a monument for me?"

The other person said in a weak voice, "If there is an afterlife, I hope I can remember your name."

Xu Qingyan was silent for a moment, "Perhaps this kind of thing does not exist in one's lifetime. Don't hold on to too much hope. And if there is an afterlife, just live a good life. Don't be so reckless to deal with the snake demon alone."

"You tell me, I'm going to die..."

She said this with difficulty, her eyes particularly determined.

Looking at the other person's eyes, Xu Qingyan was somewhat stunned and said almost subconsciously.

"Xu Qingyan, disciple of Chen Jianshan of the Eighteen Sword Sect, Xu Qingyan."

After saying this, he felt a little bitter. This familiar way of introducing himself no longer had any meaning.

At that time, he was no longer a disciple of the Eighteen Sword Sect, and was even considered a traitor who collaborated with the enemy.

Lin Yan ascended and left, and Chen Jianshan was no longer the same Chen Jianshan.

All that was left of him was nothingness.

"Okay...I remember."

The woman said this, her tone was as if she had accomplished something memorable, something that would really happen.

It made people want to ridicule him, but Xu Qingyan held back.

Looking at the other party who was already in a very difficult situation and whose breath was getting weaker and weaker.

Xu Qingyan sighed and said.

"Okay, stop talking, and make yourself comfortable in the last moments. Perhaps for people like us, this is the most relaxing time."

She looked at Xu Qingyan and said the last sentence.

"It's great to meet you before I die."

She died peacefully, and Xu Qingyan buried her with his own hands.

Of course, according to her wishes, no monument was erected.

At that time, he felt more lonely and the world was more fucked up.

He didn't remember the name Nishang for long, because he didn't take it as a very important matter.

He had seen too many people die, too many people died in front of him.

Even if I am about to die, how can I remember so much?

Besides, his own death will be approaching soon.

As for the other party's words about remembering his name in the next life, Xu Qingyan didn't care. After all, even if there was a next life, who would remember who?

Who else would not drink that bowl of Meng Po soup?

Therefore, Xu Qingyan had never thought about this matter, let alone thought about it.

The woman in front of him who was perfect to the extreme and the Saint of Jitian Palace... turned out to be the Nichang who was completely unrecognizable, with her whole body destroyed and even her voice hoarse and unpleasant!

What kind of thing is this? She actually remembers it?!

Is it true that making a wish before dying is so effective? It's like swearing before dying that you will never be a pushover again?

Looking at Xu Qingyan's flickering eyes.

Yun Nishang showed a smile that Xu Qingyan had never seen before.

But those eyes seem more and more familiar.

The beginning coincides perfectly with memory.

She said.

"I was right. You really do remember me. Long time no see. I am Xu Qingyan, a disciple of Chen Jianshan from the Eighteen Sword Sect."

Her bright smile is tinged with sunshine.

The boy standing there was caught off guard and felt the shuttle of time and space.

The distant lights and shadows were like a revolving lantern, and the stars in the universe seemed to bloom on her body.

This glance seems to span eternity...

Xu Qingyan was indeed caught off guard and was deeply shocked.

He had never thought that his most insignificant memory before his death, which was mixed between pride and frustration, would become the foreshadowing of the present.

What's even more terrible is what this woman did, what she said, and that familiar look in her eyes.

It's clearly remembering yourself!

So what is she going to do?
