Chapter 12 The False World

Ouyang Xiao Leng was not angry, because he knew that being angry at this time would not be good and would only waste time. He hurriedly asked Qianqi, "Tell me what happened?" What's the clue now?"

"From the clues I found, it should be Rasha's mother who took Xia Qiu away. She pretended to be a prophet and deceived us. But I know that Luo Shamu eats human flesh every few hours, so she can't go too far with Xia Qiu. And she likes to use the caves on the rock wall as a nest, but I don't know much about the terrain around Yongchuan. Qianqi said everything he knew and thought.

"It's Rasha's mother again! Then I know who to ask." Ouyang Xiaoling was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and then he had an idea. He turned down and hurried down the mountain, while Qianqi and Snow Rabbit followed him.

"Brother Xiao Leng, where are we going?" Snow Rabbit asked doubtfully.

Ouyang Xiao Leng didn't have time to answer Snow Rabbit's questions at all. She was just anxious to find Xia Qiu, for fear that she would be harmed by Rasha's mother a second later. He rushed to the two-life mysterious corridor connected to the world of the demon world. The Manzhu Shahua on both sides was still enchanting, and the blood-like color spread to the endless sky and then connected with the purple sky.

"Manzhu, Shahua!" Ouyang Xiao Leng shouted the names of the flower demon sisters.

Soon the silver bell-like laughter sounded again. The two doll-like sisters swayed from the sea of flowers together. They sang and said, "It's really happy that Lord Xiao Leng took the initiative to call our name so loudly."

"Yes, yes, he always turns a blind eye to us even if he passes by here."

"I just want to ask you, have you heard about Rasha's mother recently?" Ouyang Xiao Leng interrupted them directly.

"Rasha's mother." One of the sisters began to tremble.

"It's terrible." The other also became uneasy.

"She will get revenge if she says something about her. We are not her opponents."

"She will drink our blood first, and then eat our bodies little by little."

"Don't be afraid. I swear that I will completely eradicate her, and I will never let her harm you." Ouyang Xiao Leng hurriedly comforted him. At this time, he completely didn't care how humble his identity was in his heart. In order to save Xia Qiu, he had to put down his dignity.

"As the son of the Amber Dragon King, I can also assure you that my soldiers will camp in the square not far away, and they will certainly be able to ensure your safety." Qianqi also echoed the Tao.

"Well... we have a small question. If you can answer it, we will tell you what we know about Rasha's mother."

"Please excuse me." Ouyang Xiao Leng completely lowered his figure.

"As long as you can guess who is Manzhu and who is Shawar."

"Yes, as long as you can guess, it proves that Lord Xiao Leng has paid attention to us, then we will have no regrets even if we are crushed for this."

Ouyang Xiao Leng was a little embarrassed, because Manzhu and Sha Hua were twin sisters. They not only looked similar, but also had very similar voices. He never paid attention to which of them was completely blind during the day, so how could he guess. When he was in trouble, Snow Rabbit put a hand on his left shoulder. Although it was just an ordinary move, it gave him a feeling. If he guessed correctly that Snow Rabbit was hinting to him, how to understand her hint, left shoulder, left, so the invisible one on the left is Manzhu, then the right It's Shahua. I can't care so much, so I can only challenge it.

"Well," Ouyang Xiao Leng looked back and right, and finally stopped his eyes on the left. "You are Manzhu, and the other one is Shahua."

The two sisters were stunned at first, and then cheered excitedly: "Lord Xiao Leng guessed right. He really guessed right."

"He has paid attention to us."

"Well, now you can tell me what you know about Rasha's mother, right?" Ouyang Xiao Leng can't wait for a long time.

"Okay... Since some time ago, ghost slaves have secretly transported human corpses to the demon world one after another. We hid in the dark and saw it." Manzhu's voice trembled a little.

"Yes, we will secretly listen to their conversation and know that they are subordinates of Rasha's mother." Sha Hua then said.

"They complain that Rasha's mother eats human flesh every few hours, which makes them have to go to the world to find prey continuously, and they don't even have time to rest."

"Moreover, they must also carry their bodies to the cave on the barren mountain wall in the east of the royal city."

"Yes, in order not to attract the attention of others, they have to go near and far and walk in the extremely difficult stone hills in order to hide their whereabouts."

"If you don't send human flesh to Rasha's mother in time, those men may be eaten by her."

"The barren mountain in the east, it seems that we have to go there." Qianqi looked at the east and said.

"Well, thank you very much." Ouyang Xiao Leng nodded in agreement, and then thanked Manzhu Shahua.

This move really surprised Snow Rabbit. For the former little cold brother, not to mention such a humble flower demon, even if Ouyang Hongye or Grandpa Yong did something for him, he rarely said a word of thanks, but for the sake of the human girl, he could do this, and Snow Rabbit's heart suddenly felt a little small. The little sour, but it didn't hang on her face. She nodded with a smile and said, "I know a shortcut. Come with me!"

Ouyang Xiao Leng and Qianqi followed the snow rabbit and flew over Yongchuan. When they flew to the barren mountain east of Yongchuan, the three began to circle. There are many caves on the rock wall, large and small, with different shapes, and there is no difference from the outside.

"Rasha's mother will definitely lay a boundary outside the cave and disguise her nest." Qianqi said.

"Let's look for it separately. Be careful and don't act rashly. Rasha's mother's power is extremely strong, especially Snow Rabbit. You are not her opponent." Ouyang Xiao Leng thought for a moment and told him.

"Once I find it, how can I let you know, Brother Xiao Leng?" The snow rabbit asked.

Qianqi took the lead in turning out three crystal clear thin sheets from his hand. At first glance, the thin sheets look like fish scales, but they are much larger than fish scales, and the color is like shells, emitting strange light under the reflection of purple sky. He handed two pieces to Xiao Leng and Snow Rabbit: "This is my father's dragon scales. Because they have been connected on my father's body for ten thousand years, they have the ability to communicate with each other. As long as you hold it tightly and try to imagine the person you want to communicate with, they will generate induction, so that the other party holding the dragon scales can also know you. The information in my heart."

"Well, I see!" The snow rabbit clenched the dragon scales handed over by Qianqi, "Then I'll look for it at the bottom!"

"Be careful!" Ouyang Xiao Leng also clenched the dragon scales in his hand, "I'll look for it in the cave in the middle."

"Okay, I'll go to the top."

As soon as Qianqi's words fell, the three of them also said goodbye and went to the mountains to find each other.

After Xia Qiu was involved in the whirlpool and lost consciousness, he woke up and found himself lying on the desk in the classroom. The previous memories of the demon world and even about Ouyang Xiao Leng became extremely blurred, as if it were just a dream, and it could not be clearly retelling when he woke up.

She felt that her eyes were stung by the sunlight shining from the window, so she simply squinted, but this time tears left from her eyes and slid down her cheeks on the book pillowed under her arm. She raised her head and found that it should be the time for self-study. The classroom was surprisingly quiet. Everyone was lying on the table reading or doing homework. Liu Lingmei and Du He were also in their respective positions. Seeing them made her feel at ease, but she didn't know why she looked back. When she saw that the seat behind her was empty, she realized that no one had been sitting there since the beginning of school.

At this time, the bell rang after class, and she stretched out, thinking that her mind might have turned so slowly because she had just woken up. As soon as she saw that other students began to pack their schoolbags, she remembered that the next day was the National Day. School will end early today, and the first day of the holiday will begin tomorrow, so she quickly packed up.

Before she had packed up, Liu Lingmei came over and asked, "Xiaoqiu, what are you going to do later?"

Before Xia Qiu had figured out how to answer her, Du He came over and suggested, "Let's go to the cinema!"

"Good, good, good." Liu Lingmei agreed.

Xia Qiu nodded with a smile, but she was still thinking about the dream she had just had. She always felt that some links in her memory could not be connected, but she couldn't figure out what went wrong.

The street is already full of the atmosphere of the National Day. The colorful flags break the monotony of the dead leaves, which looks no different from previous years. Xia Qiu's hand is tightly held by Liu Lingmei, and the temperature spreads from the palm to her body. For so many years, Liu Lingmei has been smiling as brightly as when she first met. She kept chattering, while Du He followed with a smile.

One window after another on the commercial street, flashing with colorful colors, but the beauty was a little unreal. Xia Qiu walked and looked at Liu Lingmei, Du He and his own shadow reflected on the window in a daze. Suddenly, a pair of gray-blue pupils flashed on the window, which was the face of a teenager without any expression, but It seems that there is a magic that can pull people into the window.

She stopped, and there was no trace of the teenager on the window. She hurriedly looked behind her and didn't see the teenager. She didn't understand why she was so flustered because she couldn't find the teenager. Obviously, she was just a stranger, but she attracted her like that.

"Xiaoqiu, are you all right? Why is your face so ugly? Liu Lingmei asked with concern.

"Well, it's nothing." Xia Qiu smiled bitterly and felt that she was really acting strange today. It was abnormal. Obviously, it was a holiday with friends around her. How could she feel such a loss for a non-existent figure?

"Hurry up, go and see what movies there are." Du He changed the topic.

There is a shelf full of posters in front of the cinema. Liu Lingmei wants to watch "Dream of the Covered Bridge". Xia Qiu doesn't understand why the cinema still plays such an old film, but when she sees Liu Lingmei's face, she is excited and thinks that this is indeed a classic film. She and Du He agree.

Sitting in the projection hall and looking at the two protagonists on the big screen, they fell in love but separated. Xia Qiu felt that her heart was also depressed. It seems that she is the heroine. Obviously, she has never been in love, but why does she resonate with the plot in the movie? When he came out of the cinema, his depressed mood could no longer be released. Xia Qiu suddenly wanted to walk in Yongchuan Forest to relax, even if he just sat by the lake, so he insisted on saying goodbye to Liu Lingmei and Du He and walked to Yongchuan Forest alone.

This forest is the same as every time I came in the past. Although the leaves have turned yellow and the flowers have withered, being in it still makes Xia Qiu feel relaxed. This has always been her favorite place. Whenever she is in a bad mood, as long as she sits by the lake for a while, she will be automatically charged.

The afterglow of the sunset is reflected on the lake, and the breeze glows with golden waves. Although it is autumn, it is not very cold. Even the wind blowing by the lake is warm. Xia Qiugang felt that her tangled mood began to slowly calm down. She inadvertently turned around and saw a figure swaying in the forest. The figure was strange and familiar, which made her involuntarily want to follow up and see what he looked like. She got up and chased after it. Unconsciously, she came to an open land. In the distance, she saw a huge plum tree growing in the middle of the open land. The plum blossoms on the tree were blooming inappropriately, and the figure she followed stood under the tree.

It was the back of a teenager in a white gown. There was a pair of fox ears on his silver hair. Xia Qiu shook her head hard, doubting whether she had hallucinations, but the figure was still standing there. The strangest thing was that except for curiosity, there was no fear in her heart. She was just attracted by the beautiful back, and her feet leaned towards him unobediently.

She finally came to him. The silver-haired teenager under the tree sensed her existence and turned to face her. Her gray-blue eyes were so deep and melancholy. She was stunned at first, and then remembered that it was the face of the teenager she saw in the window.

"You're finally here." The teenager said to Xia Qiu that although there was no expression on his face, his tone was so gentle that it sounded like he had known her for a long time.

"Do you know me?" Xia Qiu asked.

"Is that how I forgot? Do you still ask me if I know you?" The teenager asked back, and there was no room for Xia Qiu to talk more. Then he opened his arms and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Xia Qiu wanted to break free from the arms of the teenager, but her body was not energetic. She indulged in the warmth and peace brought to her by the embrace, and she fell deeper and deeper. She felt that her whole heart had never been as mixed and happy as it was at this moment? Happiness? Fear? Looking forward to it? Missing? Sadness... She couldn't find any word in her mind to describe her mood. She just hoped that time could stand still at this moment so that she could stay in this embrace forever.

After a long time, the teenager slowly loosened his arms and put his hands on her shoulders and said to her, "You don't belong to the world. Everything here is false and does not exist. Remember, be sure to come back, come back to me, be sure to find our memories, and I will wait for you! Keep waiting!"

A gust of wind blew, the plum blossoms all over the trees withered in an instant, and the petals were thrown into the air with the wind. Xia Qiu looked up and saw the petal rain flying in the wind. When she came to her senses, the young man in white had disappeared, and only the bare plum tree trunks and scattered petals were left in front of her. She looked around anxiously, but there was no trace of the teenager anywhere. She felt that her heart was in severe pain, which made it difficult to breathe, and tears blurred her eyes.

The last sentence of the teenager repeatedly appeared in her mind. What did he mean? Must go back? Back to where? Do you have to come back to him? And who is he? What exactly is the memory that belongs to them? Why is he waiting for himself? All these questions swallowed her up like the endless sea.

After returning home, Xia Qiu locked herself in the room and turned over the corners of the room like crazy. She might be able to find some clues to explain everything that bothered her. The blue hairband in the desk drawer suddenly attracted her. The hairband had a dark red mark. She held the hairband in her hand and checked it carefully. The dark red mark seemed to have been stained with blood a long time ago.

She desperately recalled whether she had bandaged the wound with this hairband, and what was the connection between the silver-haired teenager with fox ears and this hairband. The teenager's gray-blue eyes always make her linger, overlapping the eyes of the silver fox in the depths of her memory. That's right! It was the little silver fox she saved from a group of black foxes when she was six years old. She used this hairband to bandage its wounds. And that teenager is exactly this little silver fox. Many years later, he came to her again. He should have a name that matches his appearance, but what is that name? The teenager, who looks as cold as ice and snow, hides a gentle heart, and only she knows that gentleness best. How can she forget him? She gradually recalled the bits and pieces when she was with him, and kept chasing the traces of these clues in the tunnel of memory. Finally, she remembered the name that she could not forget the first time she heard it, the name of the silver-haired teenager - Ouyang Xiao Leng.

"Oh, by the way, I was wandering in Yongchuan in the demon world with Qianqi, and then I accidentally walked into a small shop and met the old woman called the divine prophet, but I was pulled into the darkness by her." Xia Qiu suddenly realized and said to himself.

As she retrieved all her memories and thoughts, everything around her was shattered, scattered and disappeared like glass. She found herself sitting alone in the darkness, accompanied by endless cold and loneliness accompanied by the void of darkness. She felt fear and despair. She tried to shout Ouyang Xiao Leng's name loudly, but only heard her voice echoing in the void, and finally disappeared without any response.
