Double world undercurrent

Chapter 35 Chapter 35
"My Xiyou flower... bloomed!"

After a while, she came back to her senses from the still picture. She felt her cheeks were burning hot, and there was a deer bumping in her heart. Although she couldn't control it, it made her secretly happy.

Her eyes were bright, she shyly gave General Ming a glance, then dexterously dropped onto the Xiyou flower, and then carefully took her own Xiyou flower from his hand.

At that moment, the ambiguous breath seemed to wrap around her wrist.

She tried her best to conceal her thumping heart, and raised her red face to Leng Yi beside her, and said to him seriously:

"elder brother……"

She gave him all the brains of Xi Youhua:
"...Now we can use Xiyouhua to communicate. You only need to pick a petal and talk to it, and I can receive it remotely."

"Are you... not afraid of brother nagging you?"

Leng Yi's expression was extremely embarrassing, and the soft light in his deep eyes was slightly weird and elusive.

"My brother never nags."

she said calmly.

She plucked up her courage again, glanced at General Ming shyly, and said to him flickeringly with lowered eyes:
"It is because of General Ming that the Xiyou Grass finally bloomed. When I go back, I will send some Xiyou Grass from the garden along with the military supplies...to General Ming as a token of my gratitude."

She seemed to hear the waves in General Ming's heart, just like he was driving the war beast to break into her heart.

"Chen... Thank you Princess for your kindness..."

In his pleasant and cold voice, his breath seemed to move...

The sky is getting darker again, and it's time to return to the Demon Palace with the entourage.The sadness of parting returned to her heart, she reluctantly bid farewell to Brother Leng Yi, and shyly looked at the heroic General Ming, then left them alone.

After returning from the military camp, as expected, her father was furious, scolded her severely, punished her for copying books, and ordered her to be restrained...

To her relief, after returning from the military camp that day, the garden full of Xiyou flowers came into view!The maid said, all the Xiyou flowers in the garden bloom in an instant!The fragrance of Xiyou flowers is the fragrance of Xiyou grass.

She couldn't help but think of General Ming, her face couldn't help blushing again, she thought that the Xiyou Grass bloomed because of him, although it bloomed inexplicably, but the moment the flowers bloomed, she vaguely felt the passive improvement of spiritual power, could this be the reason? Legendary fate?
That day it was said that she would give him Xiyou grass, but unexpectedly all the Xiyou grass in the garden had bloomed... Then give him Xiyou flowers, without him, she would not be able to communicate with Leng Yi's brother remotely.

She thought about it: I will add a thank you proverb at that time, so as not to cause misunderstanding...

Although it was much easier for her to contact Brother Leng Yi with Xi Youhua instead of family letters, but it was not possible to contact her anytime and anywhere, after all, the military discipline was strict, and besides, they were on the frontier battlefield.

The time they have to communicate is very short and precious.

Xi Youhua did not alleviate her worry, on the contrary, gradually, her worry changed from one to two.

"Brother, is my ointment better than the field magic doctor's? Is it enough?"

After she finished copying the book, she picked up a petal and asked.In this way, her words will be transmitted to brother Leng Yi's Xi Youhua.

The petals in her hand were shining with white light, she put it to her ear, and heard brother Leng Yi say:

"That's natural. My Xin'er conjured it up with spiritual power, and it's the best...there's still more medicine...are you so easy to get hurt?"

She couldn't help smiling after hearing this, he was always so confident.

"Brother, since I came back that day, the plants I created have flowers and leaves, and now I can not only resurrect withered flowers and grass, but also small saplings!"

she said happily.

In the demon clan where everything is withered and "swallowed" by the cloud of air, her spiritual power is rare and precious.Leng Yi suddenly became vaguely worried that if these abilities would continue to become stronger, there would be no guarantee that no one would have evil thoughts in the future.

He replied to her solemnly:

"...Xin'er, you need to hide these skills of yours from now on, and don't let outsiders know about them."

"Oh... I see... Is General Ming an outsider?"

she asked suddenly.

Soon, brother Leng Yi's voice came, and it sounded dull and tense.

"What do you mean? Why do you ask that?!"

She wondered his reaction:
"...I mentioned this in the Proverbs of Thanks, because... I only passively improved these spiritual powers after I met him."

After a while he said to her very dissatisfied:

"You don't need to tell him these things, Xin'er... Also, it's enough for you to send Xiyou flowers to General Ming. Now you are chatting with others every day, how is that proper? You are a princess!"

He seemed to have been upset about this matter for a long time, and it was difficult to talk about it again, and now he finally poured it out.

She felt embarrassed.

What are you talking about, what do you mean chatting with someone every other day?But just occasionally ask where General Ming has been before, whether they have met somewhere, and ask him to take care of Brother Leng Yi on the battlefield...Occasionally, respond to his sincere greetings normally...

It's not all because she took the initiative to find someone...

She has already held that heartbeat and concern very deeply, how dare she express it like that...

"Brother...you don't think I sent Xiyouhua to General Ming, and then chatted with him...are you jealous?!! Don't worry, you are my most important and dearest brother, who is it? It can't be replaced!"

After a while, Leng Yi seemed to have done a long time of mental preparation before saying:
"Xin'er, brother didn't mean that... It's just that, as a princess of a country, you have many uncertainties in the future. You are so... easily hurt."

Now this... how?What hurts?Brother Leng Yi was so strange, he said it as if she had done something out of line again.

"Brother, I'm fine, I'm just communicating with others normally..."

"Is it just like that? Xin'er... Do you want me to clarify everything?"

Leng Yi seemed very angry, and some words were difficult to say, as if once said, it became an unchangeable fact, let alone turning around.

He won't see my thoughts on General Ming!She suddenly realized, and couldn't help but blush, feeling both apprehensive and shy.

But what's wrong with this, Brother Leng Yi must have thought too much... Besides, what's wrong with her being the princess of a country?Can't you decide for yourself in the future?
"Brother... Don't think about it, I'm not going to do anything, I'm not ceramics that shatter when touched, how can I be so fragile?"

Hearing what she said, Leng Yi really wanted to bring this innocent and self-willed little princess in front of him, so as to warn her, but he couldn't say it outright, so he could only say it to her domineeringly. :
"Xin'er, you are still young... don't provoke General Ming, I will remind him..."

When she heard this, she panicked.

"Brother! Don't talk to him about this! How embarrassing! He's fine... I... I'm fine... I... I just don't provoke him..."

"Xin'er, you are guilty..."

Leng Yi sounded very uncomfortable.

"I do not have……"

she quibbled.

The manuscript on the table was smeared with ink, just like her upset mood at this time.

Time is imprisoned in the funnel slowly dripping...

Since then, she didn't dare to contact General Ming anymore, and she responded to his news tactfully on the grounds of "let him fight with peace of mind".

She didn't really let go that much, on the contrary, because she had been buried in her heart and couldn't express her feelings for him, gradually, the ferment became stronger and stronger.

But the two of them are still fighting the Wu Clan together in the frontier, if Brother Leng Yi had a rift with General Ming because of her, it would be bad.

She only hoped that this war would end as soon as possible, and that brother Leng Yi and General Ming would return safely as soon as possible.

The Xiyou flower is her blessing and expectation for them, and the faint fragrance of flowers lingers all over the garden. She changed the name of her palace to Xiyou Palace.

Gradually, she grew into a young girl.Over the years, another worry has been hanging over her.

"Song Yu, how is my mother and concubine?"

Standing under the aurora tree outside the mother's bedroom, she asked anxiously.

A few days ago, the situation of the mother and concubine went from bad to worse, and the magic doctor in the court shook his head and said there was no way. , Only then did it improve.

But the concubine mother's condition has become very bad in the past few days. Yesterday, she even called her to the bedside and began to explain the odds and ends of maintaining the clan relationship, which really scared her.

"Princess, Your Majesty's condition is stable and there is no serious problem for now."

Song Yu replied.

She breathed a sigh of relief, but...

"What do you mean by all right?"

She asked.

Song Yu's big ping-pong eyes showed a worried look.

"Princess, the reason why the empress has been unable to heal all the time is because her divine essence has been impacted by divine power, causing permanent damage. The divine essence of our demon race and the divine power of the god race are mutually incompatible..."

She was shocked when she heard it!
"How could this happen! The time when the gods perished was more than 3000 years earlier than my concubine's birthday! How did she get hurt by divine power? And... Concubine mother only became like this after giving birth to me!"

Song Yu replied:
"I don't know about this humble minister. Princess, you might as well ask your empress yourself."

If you ask her, she will definitely ask. After so many years, until today, she didn't know the root cause of the mother's concubine's illness.But, more importantly right now...

"Song Yu, can you cure my concubine mother?"

Seeing Song Yan hesitated slightly, she said:
"Princess... Your Majesty's divine essence has been damaged for many years, and the disease has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Any external spiritual nourishment can only relieve the symptoms. There is only one way, which is expected to heal Your Majesty... But Your Majesty...she refuses to try ..."

"In what way?"

"If the empress can consume a sufficient amount of mortal spirits, then there is a [-]% chance of healing."

"The soul of a mortal?"

She frowned, what is that?
"Princess, the soul of a mortal is the energy that maintains the life of a mortal. It is equivalent to the soul of our demons. For us, it is the best nourishment, like a panacea."

After hearing this, she slowed down and digested it in her mind.

Mortal spirits... the energy that maintains the lives of mortals, that is to say, in order to heal my concubine, I must... kill many mortals, and take their spirits... to feed my concubine! !

She couldn't help feeling sick to her stomach.

Mortals...but they are the same as us!Emotional as well as thinking!Isn't this cannibalism! !
No wonder the concubine refused! !
The more she thought about it, the more she felt a churning in her stomach.

But if the mother and concubine don't eat it, there is no hope of healing.

but……

Those are all fresh lives!Is it really necessary to slaughter innocent lives in order to satisfy one's own selfish desires?

She felt that whether one was born as a demon or as a human being, there should be minimum principles and bottom lines.

If the demons had no principles and bottom line, they would not have survived to this day...

Could this be the so-called "vegetarian" that the concubine mother used to call? ? !

The food box that brother Leng Yi gave to his concubine back then...

"I see, Song Yu, you step back."

she says……

The illusion of memory is embedded in the axis of reality and rotates faster and faster, and their boundaries can no longer be seen clearly.

Gu Xiaoxing seems to have opened a distant diary, re-experiencing these ordinary past events like a running account with deep emotions, but he doesn't know that the real world is about to explode...
