Chapter 44: The Encounter Between Two People In The Past Life
[Review of the previous chapter: Qingzhuxuan reopened after fourteen years, Luoyuan visited, I don’t know what happened in the past fourteen years. Clues about Xuan Yi and Shan Ya’s previous lives...]
…
Xuan Yi went to the 'Praying Tung Tree' alone to try to find the truth of his past life... When he came to the tree, this place was a legendary place for the elves. The tree was covered with wild flowers, and many elves came to see the 'Praying Tung Tree'
.The leaves are dark green, and the tree is covered with emerald green flower buds. Xuan Yi learned that the praying tree is the same as before, full of flower buds, and the flowers have fallen one after another...
Xuan Yi stood under the tree for a long time. A flower bud slowly fell from the branch. Xuan Yi caught it with his hand and looked at the flower bud in his hand with pity.
The flowers are about to fall off... Why do I feel this way...
The emerald green flower buds unfolded slowly for some unknown reason. A faint green light lit up in the stamens. Xuan Yi was startled, and suddenly looked up at the tree. The emerald green flower buds on the tree then opened... The elves present were very surprised.
, all knelt down to worship. Xuanyi did not kneel down to worship like the elves, but remained stunned, quietly looking at the praying tree...
Why...I feel uncomfortable...
Xuan Yi closed his eyes slightly, and heard a voice in his ears. He suddenly opened his eyes. The scenery around him was still the same, but the elves were gone...
"Uh-huh." A laugh came, and Xuan Yi looked under the tree. Under the tree, there was a red-haired boy leaning on the trunk, closing his eyes to relax...
Isn’t this me!?
Xuan Yi didn't think anything more, just stood there and watched quietly...
…
"uh-huh"
Laughter rang out, and Xuan Yi under the tree opened his eyes and looked up at the tree... Shan Ya was sitting on the tree trunk, with no patterns on her emerald green dress, and her bare feet were dangling, and she said with a smile: "This is the first time I saw someone sitting on it.
He actually fell asleep under my tree."
Xuan Yi ignored it, put away his indifferent eyes, and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Shan Ya jumped down from the tree, and as soon as her bare feet landed on the ground, the wild flowers under the tree bloomed instantly. Shan Ya walked up to Xuan Yi, squatted down and touched Xuan Yi's short red hair. Xuan Yi opened his eyes and looked at Shan Ya with sharp eyes.
He said indifferently: "What are you doing? Put your hands away."
"Your hair color is so rare..." Shan Ya continued to stroke Xuan Yi's red hair like a curious baby, and said with a smile: "You are a human, right? The elves have never allowed humans to enter this continent for trade.
People can only stay at the border."
"boring!"
"Don't worry, I won't expose you." Shan Ya still had a smile on her face.
Xuan Yi was confused and asked: "Why?"
"Because I have never seen a human being."
"Elves are friendly and should have many friends. Why are you here alone?"
Shan Ya was silent for a while, the smile on her face disappeared, and said: "Because... except for my biological brother, I have no friends around me..."
"Feel sorry."
Shan Ya held Xuan Yi in her arms and whispered: "It's so warm..."
"You, a girl, hug a stranger so casually? Let go." Xuan Yi was not used to hugging others, let alone strangers, so he responded coldly.
"I'm so happy to see humans for the first time! It turns out there's not much difference between humans and elves." Shan Ya was very excited because she saw humans for the first time. She suddenly paused, let go of Xuan Yi, looked back, and said, "Well...
…It’s time to go back.”
Shanya stood up, flapped the wings on her back, flew into the air, turned around and shouted: "See you soon!" After saying that, she disappeared without a trace...
"..."
…
Shan Ya fell into a forest and walked out of the woods cautiously...
"Sister! Did you run out to play again!?" came a male voice...
"Haha..." Shan Ya turned around and smiled, "Shan Yu... why are you here..."
"Come back so late again."
"It's not too late. Sanyu, I saw a human! It's a boy, and his hair is red."
Shanyou got angry and said: "Sister! Don't go out to play anymore! Be careful of encountering liars!"
"Although he is indifferent, he has no malice!"
"..."
"I really want to make friends with him."
Shanyou was silent and said: "Sister, within the clan, we don't have any extravagant hopes for friends..."
"Indeed...how can people like us make friends..." Shan Ya sighed.
"Sister, get ready tonight, you have something to do." After Shanyou finished speaking, the two of them walked out of the forest together...
In the evening, the sun had set... Shanya appeared in a simple and elegant dress on the lawn full of moonlight flowers. The moonlight flowers had already emitted a white light, as if they were hiding something. Shanya walked in a hurry, looked back, and her body
But he ran into what seemed like a hard wall.
"I'm sorry..." Shan Ya raised her head and looked at the person in front of her. It was Xuan Yi. Shan Ya was slightly startled, and Xuan Yi was also stunned for a moment. She was about to speak but was stopped by Shan Ya, "Ah! A red-haired human boy! It's obviously...
It's already dangerous enough for humans to come to the Imperial City, but why come to the Imperial City? You don't want your life!"
"Why are you here?" When Xuan Yi opened his mouth, his words were still as cold as ice...
"I want to ask you again. It doesn't matter that I am an elf. But you are a human! It would be bad if you were caught!" Shanya became more and more anxious, "Don't talk here yet, it is too dangerous here, let's go out
Let’s talk again.”
"..."
Shan Ya took Xuan Yi's hand and ran. Soon after, the two came to a tree. Shan Ya panted and looked at the trunk of the tree to rest, while Xuan Yi's expression was calm, not even breathing...
"I said we would see each other again by fate, but we actually met again!"
"..." Xuan Yi remained silent.
Shan Ya held her breath and smiled: "Don't be so cold! Tonight is the Hundred Flowers Festival, a folk festival. Let's go and have fun together?"
"Not going."
"Okay, then I'll go by myself. Don't wander around the imperial capital at will anymore, it will be a disaster if you are discovered!"
"Then it's not dangerous for you to be a girl outside? I'll just accompany you." After saying that, Xuan Yi used magic to disguise himself, his ears slowly became pointed, and transparent wings appeared on his back, making him look like a real and handsome male elf.
Shan Ya was stunned for a moment and said: "Let's go! I heard that the night of the Hundred Flowers Festival is quite lively!"
Shan Ya hugged Xuan Yi's arm out of habit. Xuan Yi said expressionlessly: "You should pay attention to your behavior."
As soon as Xuan Yi finished speaking, Shan Ya immediately let go of his hand and said quickly: "Uh... I'm sorry! It's a personal habit, because I often do this when I'm around my brother..."
"That's understandable. Let's go. Didn't you say you're going to the Flower Festival?"
"Um……"
…
Both sides of the streets in the imperial capital are filled with all kinds of flowers... It's very lively... Shan Ya walks around on the streets with a few of her favorite flowers. When she sees something new, she curiously goes over to see it, and Xuan Yi is
Following all the way, looking at Shanya with a smile on her face, she was stunned from time to time...
Shan Ya walked to a lively place and drew a sachet. The tradition is that girls pick up the sachet. Among the sachets, there is a sachet with white sachet powder. It can only be opened when the lanterns are put on tonight. The winner is
For those of you, something lucky will happen tonight. But Shanya, this silly girl, didn’t even understand the rules clearly, so she just picked up a sachet and left...
The two came to the river. Shan Ya held the lotus lantern and gently placed it on the water. The lotus lantern floated with the water...
"Don't you know the tradition of the sachet? I just learned that if you open the sachet now, if there is white powder inside, something lucky will happen to the girl who is drawn tonight."
"Hey! Really!?" When Shan Ya heard this, she quickly took out the sachet. After opening it, the aroma was overflowing. Shan Ya looked down and was surprised: "White!"
"You are so lucky." Xuan Yi was silent for a while and said, "My name is Xuan Yi."
Shan Ya was stunned for a moment, then with a smile on her face, she said: "My... my name is Shan Ya!" Then a line of tears fell from the corners of her eyes...
Xuan Yi stepped forward to wipe away his tears with his hands and said, "Stop crying."
"I didn't cry, I... was just happy."
"Wait here for a while, I'm going to buy something."
"good……"
After a long time, Xuan Yi returned to the river with a box, but Shan Ya had disappeared... Xuan Yi held the box hard, with indifference on his face again...
"How dare you take people away in front of me..."
Xuan Yi used detection magic to conduct large-scale detection in the imperial city...
…
On the other side, Shanya slowly opened her eyes, but she didn't know where she was being taken. Shanya vaguely heard the sounds outside...
"I don't know why our employer asked us to arrest this little girl. The reward was good, so I thought it would be a difficult task, but it turned out to be so easy."
"Don't you remember the rules of our industry? If the employer wants to arrest anyone, as long as he pays enough, we can only live in peace."
"As long as we raise enough money, we can go back. We have been here for a few years, and it's time to go back and live a good life..."
‘Bang!’ a voice sounded. Then the wooden door was gradually opened. Shan Ya looked up and saw that it was Xuan Yi. His red eyes looked terrifying in the darkness.
"Sanya, I'm late. Are you okay?"
"Are you... still Xuanyi..." Shan Ya's body trembled slightly when she saw Xuanyi like this.
Xuan Yi closed his eyes slightly, was silent for a while, and said: "Well... I'm sorry." Xuan Yi picked up Shan Ya and left this place...
Xuan Yi and Shan Ya returned to the lawn covered with moonlight flowers. Xuan Yi gently put Shan Ya down, took out the box, and said, "I'll give you a gift."
Shan Ya took the box and said, "Thank you..."
"It's late, I'll leave first. You should go back and rest early. After all, you have been playing outside all day." As soon as Xuan Yi finished speaking, he disappeared in front of Shan Ya...
