Chapter 126: Small as Dust
They often played this game and never got tired of it. His snake tail was no longer a secret to her. She could even feel the scales of different sizes. It had a smooth touch, but was also very hard.
At that time she had no idea how powerful the person who possessed this tail was.
He gradually became familiar with her body, and touching her body was like touching himself.
There was only one thing that made him unhappy. She would only call him by his name Ah Heng and play with him when she remembered him. What he wanted was to be with her all the time.
She only has half a brain, so she might be slower than normal.
He was already slowly recovering his magic. Once he was back to normal, it would be easy for him to repair her body with his thousand-year-old magic.
By then, she will be just like her name, flawless, and it will be just a matter of waving her hand for him.
The acrobatic troupe was like a quagmire, but he had never been so happy. This place was a hundred times better than Wonderland.
Because there is no flaw.
There are no such people in Wonderland.
He held her hand and danced amid the laughter of mortals. His long tail wrapped around her waist and held her in his arms. She was like a broken tail that separated his body. Only after finding her did he become complete.
After his mother died, he had nothing.
In this long life, full of illusions and realities, there are some things he wants to find, but he cannot grasp them, and he doesn't know what they are. He just feels that after his mother died, he no longer has that thing.
For thousands of years, all he had was endless hatred.
But she was different, she was different, so he liked her.
She was not afraid of him, but approached him, his figure reflected in her remaining eye.
He has always looked down on mortals, who are weak, selfish, evil, ruthless, and despicable. He also looks down on the immortal servants in the wonderland. They are just the forms of mortals after they have freed themselves from their mortal bodies. Although they are no longer so weak, they still disgust him.
In heaven and on earth, he has always been surrounded by loneliness.
Only she is different.
She ate and drank her fill alone and no longer expected anything.
She was not greedy. If a person just wanted to fill her stomach and survive, then her greed should be forgiven, so he excluded her from the word greed.
She was willing to talk and laugh with others, but she never relied on anyone. Her nature was indifferent, even to him. She could sit alone for a long time. People in the acrobatic troupe said she was a fool, but he understood that the only half of her brain that remained was a small world. She had her own principles and an indomitable attitude.
He was a freak who shouldn't have existed in this world, but God had mercy on him and allowed him to live in this corner with a group of freaks among mortals.
He sensed a kind of beauty, flawless like a butterfly with a small piece of its wings broken off, resting in his palm.
Because of her imperfection, he thought of his own weirdness. He was not an immortal, not a mortal, and not a demon. There was no other freak like him in the three realms.
So the people in Wonderland could only imprison him, a little freak who had done nothing evil, and they had no reason to get rid of him for the time being.
Now, they can no longer trap him in a cage. He simply disdains to be a bamboo monk or the head of the gods' servants. In the final analysis, he is just a slave.
To atone for his sins, he was asked to spend tens of millions of years serving the gods to cleanse himself of all his sins? Ridiculous!
There are many two-faced and hypocritical people in the world.
How can it compare to flawlessness?
He then asked how she ended up here, becoming a freak like them and being laughed at.
She said that one day, when the acrobatic troupe came to their village, her mother pulled her over and asked them, "Is she weird enough? Is she scary enough?"
Then he looked at her head, thought she was scary enough, and took her in.
A'niang, who was originally worried about not being able to sell it, added, "If she's not worthy, then she can cut off half of her head. Maybe she can still be alive without a head, and then she can be sold for a better price."
He casually asked, "Do you still remember the direction of your home?"
She nodded.
The next day he brought back a bag of crispy meat wrapped in oil paper, as if he had just bought it from the street.
He sneaked out and back in just to buy her a bag of crispy meat.
Wuxia took a bite and found it very delicious. She has always loved eating meat.
"Is it roasted pork?"
He said no, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, "Guess again."
Wuxia had lost half of his brain and couldn't think of any more answers.
He smiled, said nothing, and asked her to eat more.
When she had finished eating and wiped her hands clean, she asked, "How did you kill her?"
He stood there in a daze, then lowered his head and laughed, "You guessed it?!"
Both of them laughed. She laughed so happily that tears flowed from her eyes.
One eye can shed so many tears.
She cried and laughed, saying, "I'm not a fool, but I'm actually very happy. She is obviously my..."
Wuxia was speechless when she was overwhelmed by tears and could not say any more.
When she didn't want to cry anymore, she swore to the moon, "If I have an afterlife, I want a mother who loves me very much. No, two, two is enough! I want them to love me more than their own lives. I want them to never hurt me, to always love and care for me, to pamper me, and to treat me as the most important person in their lives!"
After making the wish, she was a little dazed, "Ah Heng, do you think the gods on the moon can hear my wish?"
He felt so sorry for her that he couldn't help but hold her in his arms.
But after a moment, she was unmoved again, and her tears dried up, as if she had never been sad at all.
After a long time, he discovered that she was abnormal.
She was a little slow, even numb.
She didn't care about being with that man, as long as she was happy, no one could restrain her.
All the worldly constraints on women are illusory to this imperfect woman. She has no self-esteem, is not loyal, and is not moved.
When she wanted, any man would do it, but if she didn't want to, he saw with his own eyes that she could insert a hairpin into someone else's eyes, then slowly pull it out, wipe it clean with blood, without a trace of emotion on her face.
Just satisfy her desires in everything, whether it is appetite or other desires.
So he examined her whole body, inside and out.
I discovered a problem that seems like a disease but is not.
All mortals have seven emotions and six desires, and the roots of emotions are as countless as tangled yarns.
But she only had a few sparse roots of love, and they were so subtle that they were almost invisible.
Such people are naturally ruthless.
Even he has countless roots of love, and as long as people continue to have love and affection, the roots of love will continue to grow.
He entered countless times, but it turned out to be just a meaningless game.
There was no distance between their bodies, but their hearts had never touched each other.
He was almost fully recovered.
He made a decision not to look for the black dragon anymore.
The Black Dragon wanted revenge more than he did. They failed to kill all the people in the wonderful realm, so they agreed to come back ten years later.
Ten years later, they will find each other, and by then his injuries should have healed with time.
He didn't know whether it was out of pity for her lack of love or out of pity for himself for being so concerned about someone who had almost no love in him, but he spent five hundred years practicing Taoism to let her love grow.
Actually, he shouldn't do that.
Because if God has destined her to be weak in love, there must be a reason for it, but he wants to fight against God.
He wanted to forcibly awaken her love and apply the skills he had painstakingly cultivated in hatred to her.
She needs to learn to love him.
His mother was dead, both body and soul destroyed, and could not be found. The only person in the world who loved him had completely disappeared from heaven and earth.
He is a demigod with a lifespan of tens of millions of years, but also tens of millions of years of loneliness.
Revenge could only bring him short-lived happiness. After a brief moment of satisfaction, he fell into an even darker abyss.
He has divine power far superior to that of mortals. If he wants, he can even kill the mortal emperor and become the supreme among mortals. But what's the use of that? It's like being the biggest ant in a pile of ants.
Perhaps he should look upwards, he should kill all enemies in the Wonderful Realm, enjoy the Wonderful Realm alone, and become the king of the Wonderful Realm. However, the God wanted him to be a Bamboo Su, but he didn't like it. He thought that what he wanted to be was the highest one in the Thirty-Three Heavens, perhaps to become the Heavenly Dao.
But now he understood that even though those things, like his hatred, could temporarily satisfy him, they could not fill the emptiness in his heart.
He didn't want to help mortals or save the world, because he was a freak without any compassion.
Thousands of years of confusion and loss have all dissipated at this moment.
He was determined to do so.
Because he found the home that A Niang talked about.
It's not just women in the world who need a home; everyone needs one. For those who have no home and direction, their future will always be shrouded in fog.
She said it was very painful. For a person who has little love in her heart, it would be extremely painful for her to suddenly have new love awakened by divine power.
But he promised her that after all the pain was over, she would have something better.
Love began to sprout again in her heart, and her complexion suddenly became rosy.
But she also became more silent.
Thirty days later, he discovered that she was pregnant.
So he decided to take her away, but she refused. He thought she still missed this place, so he killed the entire acrobatic troupe.
She still refused to leave and waited for several days.
Apart from eating and sleeping, I didn't leave here for several days.
A few days later, she realized that she didn't get the person she wanted to wait for, so she was willing to leave with him.
She and he gave birth to a boy and a girl.
He also taught the two children to read when they were three years old.
She first relayed the "Eternal Life Secret" to him. This secret book allowed him to gradually regain his divine power and make up for the five hundred years of cultivation he had lost. However, it was still not enough. It would take at least seventy or eighty years for him to practice as before.
Wuxia is just a mortal, and it is still a question whether she can live to be seventy or eighty years old.
He can't lose her.
But he still had to ask for her consent. What if she didn't want to?
She is willing.
She is willing to stay with him for a long time, and they will become a perfect couple.
He was determined to be a good husband and a good father.
He wants to fight against the heavens and change her fate.
He wanted to take her away from the lightning catastrophe.
All the disasters fell on him at once, which was the only shortcut to give her a longer life.
His magic was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of the Heavenly Dao. Ultimately, he failed and was seriously injured.
The black dragon found them at this time and asked him to leave with her.
Seeing that he already had a lover, Heilong was unhappy. How could two people who wanted revenge abandon each other halfway? She hated him, and he hated her too.
In the eyes of the Black Dragon, they are inseparable partners.
But he chose her, a mortal.
The black dragon became angry and seriously injured him. She took away "Gao Shan Shou", which was the real secret book of Taoism and the highest level of martial arts.
Before he could ask her to repeat herself and start practicing, it was taken away from her.
The Black Dragon was arrogant. If he was unwilling to fight back with her, she would kill him now.
He was silent and didn't answer.
This made her even more angry. His silence was more hurtful than any words because she knew she would not get an answer from him.
He betrayed her.
In desperation, she tried to kill him without hesitation, and the woman rushed out at this moment and stood in front of him.
The black dragon had killed her, and she had never thought that a mortal would actually have the guts to die in his place.
Mortals are humble and cowardly, as small as dust. After decades, they become a handful of dirt.
But a mortal like her actually dared to sacrifice her life for him.
The black dragon fled with Gao Shan Shou, leaving behind this mortal and a demigod.
She was injured by the artifact, and his spell had no effect at all.
I could only watch her die.
Wuxia gave him a sachet and asked him to help hang it on a tree outside the Yue Lao Temple. She wrote her wish inside the sachet.
He had no doubt that it was her wish to meet him in the next life and recognize him again.
After she died, he hung the sachet on a tree branch and watched it for a long time. The tree grew thicker and thicker.
He slowly withdrew his hand, his eyes filled with sorrow. "Now, do you remember?"
Jiaoran sat down on the ground helplessly.
The thin dragon also fell to the ground.
A memory almost cost her half her life.
"Many years later, I was afraid I might lose your sachet, so I retrieved it and put it in the safest place."
Jiao Ran said, "Have you never opened it?"
He said, “I want to watch it with you after I find you.”
Jiaoran said, "Wuxia is dead. I am just Jiaoran. I only want to be Jiaoran. That woman is not me."
Phoenix Chick took out a faded sachet and said, "Let's take a look together to see how you treated me in the past. Then you can decide whether you want to be Wuxia or Jiaoran, okay?"
She didn't say anything, she knew what was in the sachet.
So the sachet that had been sealed for more than two hundred years was opened at this time.
There was nothing inside except a small piece of silk scarf.
"What did you write on this fragment?"
Jiaoran said, "Originally there was not a single word."
He didn't believe it. "You wrote it, but it's been so long that the words have faded and disappeared."
Jiao Ran said, "It wasn't me who wrote it, it was Wu Xia. The person you should ask is her, but she is no longer in this world."
"That witch and the people from Wonderland played a trick on me, and now you want to play a trick on me too?"
"I don't know how the Holy Witch played a trick on you, but I think Wuxia and I are not the same person. Whether she played a trick on you or not, I have no way of knowing, but I did see that there is not a single word on this fragment."
"That's impossible. It must have a pledge of love written on it."
Jiaoran said, "She tore off the fragments of this handkerchief. It was given to her by a young man who had once been a member of the acrobatic troupe. He was also a high-ranking official. After you killed everyone in the troupe, she waited for him. But she also knew that he only took pity on her disfigured face and was somewhat foolish. Even before she died, she prayed that if she could meet that man again, she wanted to see him in her perfect form."
