Want to buy osmanthus (5)
If it weren't for the stone walls surrounding it, the cave would look more like a wedding room.
Colorful balloons are hung high, red candles are not extinguished, and red dates and longans are piled up into small hills.
The only difference is the yellowish-brown golden nanmu coffin.
The coffin was placed in a stone sarcophagus and covered with a stone lid.
The coffin was wrapped in bright red silk. The woman in the coffin looked terrible. She only looked good after applying some makeup. Even so, she still had a weird and deformed look.
Outside of time and space, Xu Ning looked at the man in the picture, drank a glass of wine, got into the coffin and hugged the woman tightly, smiling happily.
Tang Xixu had long gray hair, frosted brow bones, and a little white between the ends of his eyebrows, as if it had snowed.
His eyes were unfocused, empty, distraught, and filled with despair.
After a while, a sad voice was heard.
"If I die, can I go to your world? That's okay, right?" There was a hint of clarity in Tang Xixu's cloudy pupils.
The young man closed his eyes, his voice becoming smaller and smaller, like whispering in a dream, black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth and dripped onto "Xu Ning"'s neck.
Xu Ning outside the void shouted: "Don't!"
Xu Ning slapped the screen, but couldn't touch Tang Xixu.
In an instant, something sharp pierced Xu Ning's heart. She stared at the newlyweds in the picture, hugging each other tightly.
In the valley, we live in different rooms, but in death, we share the same tomb. If you say I don’t believe you, it’s like the bright sun. [1]
The turbulent pool water could not calm down for a long time.
[Beep! Beep! An abnormality has occurred in the other world. This strategy mission has failed! Please prepare to start over!]
"Wait, why is there something wrong? What do you mean by strategy failure?"
The first time he traveled through time, Xu Ning thought the problem was too simple.
Since you're a newbie, I'll reluctantly tell you this. After you left, Tang Xixu went insane and destroyed the State of Jin. In the original book, Jin survived for another ten years, which was considered a world collapse. Furthermore, the sign of a successful strategy is that the villain is willing to lay down his sword and turn to good. In short, he must not destroy the original world or disrupt the world order.
"You want him to become a Buddha right now?" Xu Ning was silent for a moment before raising his eyebrows and sneering, "He's just a human being. Do you want him to save all living beings?"
"That's not necessary. How about this? I'll take you through experiences that Tang Xixu didn't mention in his original book. You'll experience all of his emotions simultaneously, and you can decide what to do next."
Guangyu is just a system. Although it has helped many hosts complete tasks, it still cannot feel human emotions.
[Additional reminder: this revisit also counts as a restart, so the host only has one chance to restart, please take advantage of it.]
Hearing this mean voice, Xu Ning rolled his eyes.
A beam of light came, swirling and dazzling. Xu Ning covered his eyes. The sky was spinning, and the sun and moon were upside down.
Time goes back, years return, and all dead things are reborn.
Xu Ning turned into a lonely soul, wandering around Tang Xixu.
The little boy, as tall as a straw, was fast asleep. His eyelashes were curled and his tender face was smooth and delicate. Perhaps he was dreaming about something delicious, as large amounts of saliva were hanging from the corners of his mouth.
Xu Ning lay sideways beside Xiaotang Xixu.
This little one is quite likable.
Xu Ning pinched the soft flesh on the child's cheeks twice. It was so soft that Xu Ning's heart melted.
"call--"
A gust of wind blew by, and her face felt a little itchy. She scratched it with her short little hands. Xu Ning was startled and dodged her hand, afraid that he would find out.
After a few seconds, Xu Ning realized that he was just a soul, which could not be seen or touched by others, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
The stars on the sand dunes are a bit playful tonight, twinkling like a child playing hide-and-seek.
"Yin Zhao? Yin Zhao, get up and eat."
"This kid is really something. It's already noon and he still can't pay it back."
Xu Ning woke up first, and a woman pushed the door open against the light and shadow.
"Zhao'er, hurry up and eat. Mother made your favorite plum blossom cake today. It smells so good."
The little boy muttered to himself, rubbed his eyes with his short hands, and opened them a little.
"mother."
The sound is soft and sticky.
If Xu Ning had not seen Tang Xixu's appearance as a young man, he would never have believed that this was Tang Xixu's childhood.
Tang Xiwan helped Tang Xixu put clothes on, and the girl's facial features became clear.
He had a pair of swallow-like eyebrows with long and thin eye corners, very similar to Tang Xixu's, a high nose bridge, and a faint smile at the corners of his lips.
"Aunt." Xu Ning blurted out accidentally and quickly covered her mouth.
Tang Xiwan seemed to feel a wind blowing past her ears, and didn't see anything else around.
"Your Uncle Pei is here today. Huan Yu won a battle last night and rushed back overnight..." The woman walked out with the little boy.
When Xiao Tang Xixu heard that his brother was back, his sleepiness was swept away: "Really? Why didn't mother wake me up earlier?"
His legs were bouncing and he ran very fast, like a motor.
Xu Ning floated behind, admiring the desert scenery from time to time.
Entering the main hall, Tang Xixu hugged Mo Tingzhou's legs and said, "Brother!"
The child's bear hug was too hasty, causing Mo Tingzhou to stagger back a few steps.
"Zhao'er, did you listen to your mother carefully? Did you eat well?" Mo Tingzhou squatted down and touched the top of Xiaotang Xixu's head.
The little boy smiled and nodded: "Of course, I helped my mother sweep the house yesterday."
Mo Tingzhou showed approval: "Well, that's right, this is how children of my Mo family should be."
Tang Xixu took a sip of the stuffed skin and exhaled due to the spiciness.
"Zhao'er is so afraid of spicy food, you should eat more plum cakes." Mo Tingzhou smiled and put a piece into Tang Xixu's bowl.
Xiao Tang Xixu took a big bite and the sweetness balanced out the spiciness, which was indeed much better.
Xu Ning was a little surprised. In her impression, Tang Xixu had no dietary restrictions. He ate everything and was not afraid of anything. It didn't seem like he was afraid of spicy food.
"Brother, I can handle spicy food." Xiao Tang Xixu frowned, his face darkening, "Really?"
Mo Tingzhou was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and stopped arguing with his brother.
"Huan Yu, how's the war going lately? Are you having a hard time? A couple of years ago, the Lie Yin Sect was defeated and retreated to Xizhou, which isn't far from Ye County. I've heard that a lot of people in the sect have been causing trouble lately. Have they caused you any trouble?"
Mo Tingzhou took a sip of the mutton soup and gently comforted his mother, "Don't worry, mother. I think there is a misunderstanding. I've just been dealing with this matter recently."
Mo Tingzhou and Tang Xixu are not very similar. The only thing that the two brothers have in common is their eyes.
As black as ink and as quiet as a deep pool.
But there was something more in Mo Tingzhou's eyes.
Xu Ning looked for a long time but couldn't figure it out.
"Uncle Pei!"
Tang Xixu threw himself into Pei Zheng's arms.
"Oh my, I haven't seen you for half a year. Zhao'er has grown so tall."
Pei Zheng picked up Xiaotang Xixu.
The child smiled foolishly, his face slightly red.
"father."
A clear young voice came from behind Tang Xixu.
Pei Zheng put Tang Xixu down and touched his furry head.
"This is my boy. He is one year older than you. You can call him Brother Yuanchi."
Little Pei Yuanchi looks like a little adult, with a bookish air. At first glance, he looks like a silly boy who only knows how to read.
Xu Ning looked Pei Yuanchi up and down. He was indeed a man who had been an emperor in his previous life. He looked like an old cadre at such a young age.
Little Pei Yuanchi felt something and looked behind Tang Xixu.
Nothing.
They looked at each other suddenly across the space. Xu Ning's heart trembled, and he held his breath and concentrated as if he was desperate.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Xiaotang Xixu looked at Pei Yuanchi in confusion.
"Nothing." The young boy's voice sounded a little mature.
"Huh." Pei Yuanchi turned his gaze away, and Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
That’s not right. I am a lonely soul. He can’t see me at all. What should I be afraid of?
Xu Ning was embarrassed by his own stupidity.
Pei Yuanchi and Mo Tingzhou went to the camp to look for Mo Wenqing, while the two children went to play on the other side.
"What can you do?"
"What?" Pei Yuanchi didn't know what Tang Xixu was asking.
"Swords, knives, and so on. I learned swords, but I like guns more. What about you? What do you like?"
Children are children after all, and a look of embarrassment flashed across little Pei Yuanchi's fair face.
"Ahem, I, I can roll the dice."
The little boy rolled his eyes.
"What? Shaking dice? Is that what I thought?" Xiao Tang Xixu widened his eyes. He thought that the young master from the capital, even if he couldn't wield a sword or a gun, should at least be able to play the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and compose poems. At least he should be good at something legitimate.
After several interrogations, little Pei Yuanchi still knew a little bit, but only a little.
He brought a few dice with him, and the dice cup turned up and down in the boy's hands. "Ding ding dang dang", the dice turned quickly like jumping stones.
Xu Ning couldn't believe it, but then he wasn't so surprised when he thought about how he later became the Dice King.
The two children sneaked around and found a secret place.
"Uncle Pei won't allow you to play."
Pei Yuanchi covered Tang Xixu and looked around vigilantly. There was yellow sand everywhere and no one was around.
"Shh!"
"If my dad finds out, I'm doomed!"
Xu Ning smiled faintly. She never imagined that the man who, years later, dared to defy the world and imprison the Prime Minister, was actually afraid of his own father as a child?!
Tang Xixu fell silent and said no more.
"I guess big."
Tangxi Xu is confident of victory.
"Small, I guess."
Pei Yuanchi raised his eyebrows.
The dice turned out to be small.
"No, that's the dice you rolled. It doesn't count."
Pei Yuanchi said indifferently: "Okay, then you shake it."
Tang Xixu used all his tricks, vowing to make sure Pei Yuanchi couldn't guess it.
Unfortunately, Tang Xixu was wrong again this time.
"How is that possible?" The little boy's face was full of disbelief.
Pei Yuanchi was very proud and said, "Forget it, if you are willing to take me as your master, I will teach you, how about it?"
"You? I don't want to. If you're brave enough, let's have a fistfight. Who will win or lose is still uncertain."
Pei Yuanchi hesitated. Although he had learned some martial arts from Xu Qiubai, he mostly gave up halfway. Xu Qiubai was more of a Buddhist. After a while, Pei Yuanchi had just entered a state of meditation when Xiaotang Xixu had already become invincible.
"Tsk, if you don't want to worship, then don't worship."
A few days later, Pei Yuanchi passed away.
"If you have any difficulties in the future, come to Wangyue Tower on Zizhu Mountain to find me."
The sun was scorching, the sky was filled with yellow sand, and only a small patch of green could be seen occasionally within a hundred miles. The soldiers were training naked, and the young general was giving orders with a serious expression.
"Does Zhao'er like guns too?"
After Mo Tingzhou finished practicing a set of spear skills, Xiaotang Xixu showed an envious look in his eyes.
"Uh-huh!"
The little boy's eyes were bright and he nodded vigorously.
Mo Tingzhou pondered for a moment, then looked at his brother gently. "Alright. If Zhao'er can last five moves against me within ten days, I'll teach you. How's that?"
The little boy's eyes, which were as bright as obsidian, suddenly dimmed.
"Five moves?"
"Brother, you must be joking. How could I possibly do that?"
His brother Mo Tingzhou is the successor of the Liquan Spear and the deputy commander of the Mo family army. Not many people can defeat him.
Xiaotang Xixu looked like a wilted puppy.
"Why not? My Zhao'er is a very smart child. At the age of five, he had memorized the most difficult sword technique in the world. Spear skills are simpler than sword skills, so he should be no problem."
The black grape-like eyes lit up again.
Every day at dawn, when Xu Ning was still dreaming, Xiaotang Xixu would get up and start practicing.
Xu Ning admired him from the bottom of her heart. Even though she had lived in the world for more than 20 years, she could not achieve such regularity.
Day after day, it's like a daily routine.
Xu Ning really couldn't get up, so he followed Tang Xixu for a few days and then stopped.
Tang Xixu had grown a lot taller, and the spear was no longer so difficult for him to use, and he was able to use it like a fish in water.
"How's Zhao'er's training going?"
