Chapter 125: The Beginning of Yunxi: Blessing

[Hongmeng Continent - Eastern Suburb Forest]

"Can you...can you draw a face for me?" The face made of Edina paper was torn, and there was a big hole in the beautifully painted paper, and the exposed part could see the jagged teeth inside, which was old. The bones are old, not as white as jade, but a little yellowish, and the upper and lower rows of teeth can still be seen opening but not closing together while speaking.

Edina was originally sitting on a cool stone, watching the little ants diligently burrowing in and out of the cracks in her bones, with small leaves, as if she intended to build a new nest in the new bone. I'm very pleased with this well-connected and towering bone now.

But when Edina saw Lan Lingxi coming out, he turned his head slowly, and then talked to Lan Lingxi, which frightened the little ants on Edina. Then they fled on Edina's bones one after another, from the hands to the spine, densely packed ants fled in all directions.

Lan Lingxi woke up early in the morning and wanted to take a shower. She was drowsy at first, but when she saw the weird scene in front of her, she lost all sleepiness. She was almost scared to death by Edina. If it was someone else, she would have been so scared Half of her body was buried in the ground, but fortunately, Lan Lingxi has a strong psychological quality, but she just thumped in her heart, and started to pick up the pot.

With water in the basin, Lan Lingxi said to Edina, "Morning." Thinking in her heart, but speaking of it, Edina gradually began to appear outside the land of spirits, and it seems to be quite frequent recently, why not Said to appear in front of her quite frequently.

It should be because Edina has taken in an apprentice, so he is very responsible...?

Lan Lingxi hoped that the next time she saw Edina, she would not be frightened to death for no reason, then Gulu Gulu brushed her teeth, and picked up what Edina said at the beginning, "Why is your face broken? .”

According to Lan Lingxi's understanding of Edina, logically speaking, ordinary things don't want to touch Edina, even getting close is a problem. How could it break Edina's face?So I didn't rush to reply to Edina's words, but asked this question. How should I put it, this question is quite important.

If some powerful guy scratches Edina's face, it may be a major survival crisis for Edina or the people of the Imperial Spirit Clan.

Edina played it lightly, scratching his skinless Tianzhu bone, "Ah, this one."

He didn't rush to explain, but asked Lan Lingxi, who was slapping his face with water, a question, "You know, how did I get my face now?"

It's impossible, it must have been born there... Lan Lingxi didn't say this muttering in her heart, and replied very honestly, "I don't know."

There were still some crystal clear drops of water on Lan Lingxi's face and bangs just after washing. She shook her head like a beast to shake off the drops, and then sat in front of Edina, listening respectfully. She seems to be teaching, but she is thinking in her heart, if Edina’s face is glued on, so is her hair glued on too? As a girl, Edina’s beautiful and smooth hair really makes her a little envious Woolen cloth.

If she knew where this hair came from, Lan Lingxi said that she would also like to try it.

Lan Lingxi was absent-minded, while Edina seemed to be absent all the time.

Edina's head was raised slightly, as if bathed in a ray of sunlight in the ancient forest, "I can't remember what I look like, what my face looks like, but I heard from others that when I was alive , has a good skin."

Lan Lingxi nodded, "I also think that Master Edina should have been beautiful before his death." Looking at the paper painting pasted on Edina's head, he felt even more beautiful than a living person, which was a kind of extreme surprise. She is very beautiful, and I saw that Edina carefully selected even the bones of her hands before, so she must have been a woman who loved to dress up when she was alive.

A dead person always has some habits from when he was alive, and perhaps Edina himself was not aware of these inadvertent habits.

"The musculature on my face has rotted away, leaving only the unrecognizable bones on my face. This state of bare bones has lasted for a long time, and my temperament at that time was also extremely cruel... The reason for the cruelty may be that I may I don't want to be like this, but for some reason, I have to, I have to continue like this."

At this moment, Lan Lingxi heard what Edina said, and only then did she face up to a problem that she had been ignoring. In fact, Edina was already dead, but everything is too natural now, making Lan Lingxi think that Edina is still alive, like a real Appeared in front of my eyes like a living person.

Moreover, Edina has never liked the current state.

Is there a possibility? Lan Lingxi speculated in her heart that Edina was actually very eager for relief, and had been waiting for the opportunity of liberation. At this moment, Lan Lingxi really understood why she saw Edina in the first place. At that time, I felt that Edina was so powerful, but I felt the endless desolation and sadness from Edina.

The chestnut-backed hummingbird jumped briskly, its feet guessed Edina's shoulder, as if it regarded Edina as a damaged tree, gently pecked it with its beak, and turned its head after pecking, round Liu Liu's eyes wandered around, as if he was looking at Edina, wondering what kind of tree it was.

"The picture on the face is probably..." Edina said and began to point her fingers very seriously, but she didn't seem to be able to count clearly in the end, "Ten years ago? Or more than 20 years ago?" ...but the time is not important. The important thing is that the one who gave me this painting was a little boy."

As he spoke, Edina stretched out his hand and rubbed Lan Lingxi's head, "It's probably about your age, and just as weird as you."

The boy's name, he said his name was Lancelot, yes, it was Lan Lingxi's father.

"He said at the time that when he saw me for the first time, he always felt that there was something missing from me, so he started to ask around, what happened to me before I was alive, heh, what a strange guy, he is not afraid of me, and I am not afraid of me either. I was annoyed by it, and when I heard what he said, I wondered if there was something really missing in me."

"So I waited and waited, and finally I waited for him. He said that he found what was missing from me." When it came to this, Lan Lingxi seemed to feel that there seemed to be a smile on Edina, "then He said he brought what I lacked, show me, and guess what he brought me in the end?"

"It's a portrait of a woman, the one you're wearing on your face." Lan Lingxi barely guessed, and said the answer.

"Well, he said that what I lack is a woman's face, I feel very surprised, but after wearing this face, it seems that my mood has gradually calmed down, and I no longer become as vicious as a ghost... ..."

This can be regarded as Edina owed Lancelot a favor before.

The torn paper on Edina's face even showed a little breeze, blowing the paper, she continued, "Then I suddenly feel that this paper has been worn for a long time, and I want to change it .”

Edina just scratched off a little bit of the paper painting on his face, which shows that he still cherishes this portrait a little bit. On the one hand, he is reluctant to part with it, but on the other hand, he really wants to change it.

Lan Lingxi clasped her hands in front of her chest, crossed her legs, um... the idea of ​​the ghost is really strange, she still finds it difficult to understand Edina's behavior after thinking about it, but she still agreed to Edina's request, " Okay, then do you want the face of a woman like before?"

"What do you think I look like?" Edina became a little tricky at this time, like a teacher who started to give students a question, planning a question that was not in the syllabus, and had strict requirements , "After you find this answer, give me the picture in the answer."

"Okay." Lan Lingxi did not refuse.

Edina even forgot her own appearance, who knows what kind of results can be found to satisfy her.

Thinking of this, Lan Lingxi also felt that this matter was very difficult, and felt a little incredible, but when she thought that this matter might be done well, it would make Edina feel at ease, so she felt that it was nothing.

"I'm very satisfied with your performance." Edina's body gradually became transparent under the light, as if she was about to leave, but her exposed teeth were still talking, "I'll make an exception and give you a hint. "

"Do you know why there are those ugly scars on the body of Yuling people?"

"Is it because of... a curse?"

"No, it's not like that." Edina's white and gold-plated fingertips dropped a dark green leaf, and she gently outlined the fallen leaf, her long hair hanging down her back like a veil, leaving only Xia Gu's body was wrapped in a cloud-colored long gauze dress, and a small butterfly fluttered around her body. It looked different from the usual weirdness, but more dignified and chic.

"That is….."

"Misunderstood. This may have nothing to do with the curse, it is a blessing." Edina's figure has disappeared, leaving only the leaves floating left and right like a boat, flying and falling into Lan Lingxi can't help stretching out in the palm of your hand,
Edina's remaining words still rang in Lan Lingxi's ears.

"There are a lot of eccentric souls in the land of spirits, and from time to time they will do harm to others, and the people of the Yuling clan are marked, so they can survive around them without being corroded to death."

Lan Lingxi looked at the fallen leaves in her palm and murmured, "It turns out...it's a blessing."
