Chapter 169: Millennium Cause and Effect (IV)



Xiaozhi is an innocent girl. She is a fairy who grew up in the mountains. She picks wild flowers, drinks morning dew, and is free and unrestrained. She is the happiest elf in Cangcang Mountain.

Huaishan recuperated from his injuries in Cangcang Mountain for a period of time, and that period was the happiest time in his life.

Sometimes he would lean against the pear tree on the hilltop to read, looking at the wild gentian blooming all over the mountain, and the snow-white pear blossoms falling like a drift of snow.

Xiaozhi said that in autumn, this pear tree will grow the sweetest pears.

He closed the book in his hand, reached out to brush away a petal that fell from the girl's shoulder, and for the first time, he wished that time would stop at this moment and not continue to flow.

Xiaozhi blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked curiously, "What book are you reading?"

Huai Shan smiled and turned the book over. When he was on earth, he was a general. In the eyes of many people, generals were rough and uneducated, but he was not like that. He was a Confucian general.

When fighting on the battlefield, he has the courage to command hundreds of troops, and when he takes off his armor, he is also a graceful young man who can speak eloquently.

Xiaozhi looked at the words carefully and read them out doubtfully: "Yu...Yu what?"

"This is reading the Book of Songs." Huai Shan raised his eyebrows: "It seems that the girl has not read many books."

"That stuff is so boring and uninteresting." Xiao Zhi said openly: "Shen Zhi likes to read, I don't. I like to play."

"Let me teach you how to read." Huai Shan turned to the first page. "You just don't have a good teacher. Writing is an interesting thing."

"Is it fun?" Xiaozhi asked in a clear voice.

"It's fun." Huai Shan said in a voice that sounded like he was coaxing a child: "Learning is actually an interesting game."

Xiaozhi happily sat down cross-legged beside him, her white calves exposed under the lifted hem of her skirt, like a piece of tender lotus root.

Huaishan read the first poem, Guanju, to her.

The orioles are singing on the island in the river. A beautiful lady is the ideal match for the gentleman.

Huaishan pointed out to her that "guanguan" is the call of a pheasant, which is a kind of bird. This describes the scene of a beautiful little bird singing.

At this time, the young man who was picking water chestnuts met the beautiful girl he liked.

Xiaozhi opened her beautiful big eyes and listened attentively. Her big eyes blinked, as if stars were falling into them.

She was so beautiful, so beautiful that Huai Shan breathed very lightly and slowly, as if he was afraid of disturbing something.

Xiaozhi listened carefully and suddenly realized: "Is this a love poem?"

"Yes." Huai Shan's voice suddenly became a little stagnant: "This is a love poem."

He recited this poem deliberately because he had some secret thoughts that were difficult to express.

That day, there was a vast blue sky, a boundless sea, poems filled with love, and a beautiful girl in a flowery dress, revealing a section of her white calves, her skin as tender as a piece of juicy tofu.

It left an indelible and deep impression on Huaishan.

From then on, this scene often appeared in his dreams, and he would wake up in the middle of the night, his handkerchief wet with tears, and realize that it was no longer a day but a thousand years had passed.

Those were days that could never be returned.

The water flows around the uneven water chestnuts. I long for the beautiful lady day and night.

I can't get what I want, I think about it day and night. I am so leisurely, tossing and turning.

Huai Shan did not stay in Cangcang Mountain for a long time. He was the emperor of the fairy world and shouldered heavy responsibilities. Naturally, it was impossible for him to be an idle immortal in this sacred mountain.

Before Huai Shan left, it was a midsummer night. The breeze was gentle and the moonlight was like water. Xiaozhi threw herself into his arms, and the girl's soft arms wrapped around his thin waist.

The daughter of the sacred mountain, her love and hate are strong and bold.

"Huai Shan." The girl's voice was soft and pleading, "Can you please not leave? I like you and I don't want you to leave."

At that moment, he really didn't want to leave.

He no longer wanted to be the emperor. He wanted to unload his burdens and live in seclusion with the girl on this beautiful fairy mountain.

Work from sunrise to sunset and rest from sunset to sunrise, living a happy life like a couple of gods.

He closed his eyes and used the determination of cutting flesh and bones to push the girl's arms away bit by bit.

"I will come back." He made a promise: "I will definitely come back, Xiaozhi."

"I like you. When I come back, I will marry you and make you the empress." He lowered his head and kissed Xiaozhi on the forehead tenderly.

"I will definitely come back."

Midsummer night is gentle and romantic, and the stars are shining, as if witnessing this promise.

He did not go back in the end. He returned victorious from the battle with the demon world, but he was also seriously injured and fell seriously ill.

He was caught in the magic world's maze, and the smoke entered his body. Although he was protected by golden light, he still suffered serious injuries.

Even his memory became disordered. He forgot many things, and the person who was most precious to him was completely forgotten by him.

He forgot the sea, the gentian flowers all over the mountain, and the girl with the brightest smile in the world.

He completely forgot about Cangcang Mountain and the girl who was waiting for his return on Cangcang Mountain.

When Huai Shan became the Emperor, he met another woman named Ming Youyou. When Ming Youyou was alive, she was a heroic female general. She died in front of the city gate to protect her country. When the heavenly calamity fell, she ascended to heaven.

She was bold and aggressive, and she pursued him fiercely from the moment they first met, not at all afraid that he was the king of gods.

She was like a cluster of hot flames, forcefully intervening in his life.

Huai Shan was annoyed at first, but gradually, he got used to Ming Youyou chasing him from front to back.
