Binding the Dragon for the Empress - Chapter 52
[Chapter 52 This life is also the same]
The sky was pouring rain.
Chen Yan and the rest of the guards crouched beside Yan Yuan and wept softly. When they raised their heads again, Yan Yuan on the ground was gone, leaving only a pool of blood diluted by the rain.
“Your Majesty.”
Chen Yan’s eyes widened and he called out briefly, which attracted the attention of several guards. Everyone looked at the scene in front of them in horror, stood up and looked around, trying to find Yan Yuan’s figure in the rain and fog.
In fact, it was only Xuanlong who used a trick, and the barrier blocked the sound and the mortal eyes.
Yan Yuan stopped looking at Xuanlong. He was destined to be the Supreme Being in the Nine Heavens, but he abdicated himself for the sake of a dragon and fell into the mortal world. How can the heavens tolerate him.
In the mortal world for thousands of years, no one’s life will end.
His destiny is to return to the palace that day to be a ruthless and lustless emperor, abandoning the throne for love, which is simply outrageous. Going against the sky will not end well.
The rain brushed Yan Yuan’s pale face, wet her hair, and her feather-like eyelashes. He looked as peaceful as if he had fallen asleep, but after all, the living and the dead were different. The living had shiny skin, and the dead lay there like a lifeless mass.
Xuanlong raised his sleeves and gently wiped away the blood on Yan Yuan’s mouth and chin with his cuffs. He remembered that Yan Yuan should be clean, and he didn’t like her sloppy appearance.
The faint light from the blue iris in the palm of the hand gradually extinguished with Yan Yuan’s death, leaving a scorch mark burned by the fire, and Xuanlong could not feel the pain.
From the moment he rushed over and saw Yan Yuan’s arrow fall, his mind and body became numb. When people are extremely sad, they can’t feel pain, and the same is true for demons.
Xuanlong’s hands passed through Yan Yuan’s back and knees, hugged him slowly, and stood up staggeringly.
Dragon world.
The wooden gate of the Xiaozhuyuan was pushed open. Hearing the movement, the old man took a sip of his tea leisurely, looked back, and said in surprise.
“It’s you.”
After sizing up Xuanlong, his eyes moved to the person in his arms, and he frowned immediately.
“I don’t accept human race here.”
“Senior… Please help.” Xuan Long held Yan Yuan and stopped not far away from him, his hoarse voice seemed indistinct in the rain.
The old man was worried, put down the teacup and said, “Why do you get wet every time you come back to me, an old man like you won’t let you in the house.”
“Besides, the old man made a rule a hundred thousand years ago, save God If you save ghosts, demons and charms, if you don’t save people, it’s no use begging me, let’s go, let’s go.” He waved his hand impatiently to chase him away.
Xuanlong stood still, his ice-green eyes stubbornly staring at the old man’s back. He hugged Yanyuan, knelt in the swirling rain and mist, and squeezed two words out of his throat.
“Please…” The
old man was startled and jumped up from the stone bench: “Oh, what are you doing, the Chinese New Year hasn’t arrived yet, why are you giving me such a big gift, the old man has no red envelope for you!”
” Hurry up!”
Xuanlong lowered his eyes, the rain washed over his resolute face, and he remained motionless.
The old man stomped his feet in anger: “It’s no use begging me, this person is dead, and there is no way to save it.”
Others might not be able to save Yan Yuan, but Xuan Long knew that this senior could. Dragon family medical sage, famous in the demon world, can live to death, flesh and bones, and even reshape the body for the dead.
These are all things I overheard the tribesmen talking about when I was a child. I have never seen them before. I only know that his medical skills are superb, and even fallen gods will look for him.
“Can’t you get up?”
Xuanlong just repeated the sentence in a low voice: “Please, senior, help…”
“Okay, if you don’t go, I will go.” The old man gave him an angry laugh.
“Just kneel here, I don’t care until tomorrow.”
With a wave of his hand, the tea set on the stone table disappeared, the old man entered the bamboo building, and the door was forced shut.
He loves to play chess very much. After entering the house, he took out his treasured jade chessboard, and sat at the coffee table to ponder on his own.
The night of the Dragon Clan came very early. It was raining today, and it was completely dark after noon. The old man ate two salted fish biscuits happily. He opened the window and looked out in the mood to try it, and his mood suddenly became bad.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and there is a tendency to wash away the trees in the Dragon Realm, but those trees are mostly ten thousand-year-old trees that have become fine. Naturally, they are not so easily destroyed. .
Xuanlong knelt outside for more than an hour, without changing his posture, his back was straight, and his face was not much better than the dead human being held in his arms.
The old man couldn’t bear it any longer and opened the door to go out.
“You just want to save him that much?”
“Senior, help…” The rain would not make Xuanlong feel cold, but the spiritual power overdrafted when he came to the Dragon Realm with Yan Yuan made him very weak. After a long time, the low hoarse voice trembled.
“This person is the father of the fetus in your womb,” the old man said, staring at Yan Yuan’s face. “What do you want him to do?”
“He looks like a dog, but there should be many dragons with the same appearance as him? If you die, you will die. If you find another one, you have to be in a crooked tree. What are you doing hanging from a tree by your neck?”
Xuanlong was silent, letting him scold.
There may be many people in this world who are better than Yan Yuan, but the person who touched his dragon horn ten thousand years ago and told him not to be afraid, after saving his life, left him an umbrella to protect him from the wind and rain, Only Yan Yuan.
After spending more than a month in the ancient pond with him, the only person who made a lifelong commitment with him was Yan Yuan.
Even if that love was like an illusory bubble, even if he lied to him and used him, he couldn’t stand idly by just relying on the life-saving grace 10,000 years ago.
No matter how it is calculated, Yan Yuan is one of the few people in the world who treats him better.
He couldn’t let him die…
Xu was seeing that Xuanlong had made up his mind.
“The old man never saves the human race. If I have to make an exception today, I will use your remaining dragon horn in exchange.”
Xuanlong was stunned, but did not hesitate: “Okay…”
“Come in with me.” The old man turned and walked into the house. Walk.
Xuan Long hugged Yan Yuan and got up, his knees that had been kneeling for a long time stinged unbearably.
Yan Yuan was placed on the bed in the inner room.
The old man put his two fingers together and probed between Yan Yuan’s eyebrows, paused for a few breaths, and withdrew his hand.
“Life and death have fate. He is already a person in the underworld. If he wants to change his life against the sky, he will be backlashed. Have you really thought about it?”
Xuanlong stared at Yanyuan’s face and asked softly, “Why backlash.”
“I don’t know.”
“Perhaps the calamity is ahead of schedule, or the calamity is aggravated, or there are many disasters and unfortunate fate. In short, if you forcibly save him, it will destroy the luck, and there will be no good results.”
“Furthermore, you can save him. There is only one way.”
Under Xuanlong’s gaze, the old man slowly spat out the words.
“One life for one life.”
“One life for one life…” Xuanlong murmured, as if thinking about his words.
“It’s not just one life for another.” The old man sneered.
“There is only one thing in this world that can save the dead – the inner elixir of the demon.”
“After your ten thousand years of Taoism has been integrated into his body, you can not only save him, but also make him healthy and live a hundred years old. ”
But if you don’t have the inner alchemy, you will dissipate the ten thousand years of Taoism and become as fragile as a mortal. When the catastrophe comes, you are pregnant again… How to stop it?”
“There is no doubt of death.”
“No matter when the calamity comes, the fetus in your womb is now constantly absorbing your spiritual power for nourishment. Without the spiritual core, it will eat away your soul power to grow. Once you lose the inner alchemy, you will It can live for at most three years, and the fetus may fall at any time.”
“It used to be a demon that can grow up with the heavens and the earth. He cultivated a good way, and maybe he could become an immortal after this calamity. Now, for the sake of a common man, he even gave up his life.”
“The old man will ask you one last time, have you thought about it?…”
Xuanlong was mentally prepared before he came. He knew that changing his life against the sky would not end well, and he also knew that he had to save a dead person. , must pay a huge price, so he is not much surprised.
He has lived for ten thousand years, long enough, and has tasted the taste of loneliness for ten thousand years. Death has never been a terrible thing for him, but endless loneliness is even more terrible.
It is even more terrifying for the person who cares to die in front of him alive.
When he heard the old man say those words, Xuanlong’s first reaction was not how long he could live, but about the child in his belly. His knuckled hand stiffly touched the flat belly, and he said with difficulty: “The fetus, maybe Can’t you keep it…”
“You still haven’t fully grasped the safety of giving birth to the fetus, let alone the Taoxing disperses.”
“It’s more fortunate than it is.”
Xuanlong’s palm on his abdomen tightened slightly, and the pain flashed across his eyes. .
After losing Yan Yuan, the child was the only thing he had left, and he looked forward to the future. No one knew how happy he was with the appearance of this child, and no one knew how much joy this child, who was not even in shape, had brought to his dull life.
He can turn around and leave, just as the old man said, is it really worth it to disperse the ten thousand years of hard work for a mere mortal.
Is it really worth it to risk your life for someone who doesn’t love you?
But who knows, in a relationship, there is never anything worthwhile or not, only willingness and reluctance.
And he was reluctant.
Xuanlong slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, only unshakable firmness remained in his eyes.
“…I figured it out.”
“Senior…help.” The
old man sighed and finally said, “Spit out your inner elixir.
” The inner alchemy of green flame slowly emerged from his eyebrows, the old man reached out to his forehead and grabbed the inner alchemy, put it in front of his eyes, and shook his head solemnly.
“Wan Nian Dao Xing…”
“One day, you will regret it…”
He has already said this, and Querle has also said it. If you don’t regret it later, who can know. If he doesn’t save him, he will regret it now.
Since he had accepted Yan Yuan’s love, he had to pay it back. A life for a life is also good.
After the inner alchemy was separated from the body, Xuanlong felt as if his strength was drained. He watched the old man melt the complete inner alchemy in the palm of his hand, and the greenness poured into Yan Yuan’s eyebrows little by little.
The dead aura on Yan Yuan’s face gradually faded and she was reborn, while Xuanlong’s life was about to burn out at a fiery speed.
He loves him, always like a moth to a flame, and he never cares about himself.
It was in the past life, and it is also in this life.
