Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 78 Goodbye Begonia
Su Ji didn't answer, but just quietly looked at the little golden fox on the tree.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the little fox couldn't help asking:
"Never seen you before... Who are you? Why are you here?"

"My name is Hu Qi, I'm here to find Mr. Haitang."

"Are you looking for my father?"

The little fox is called Haitang Jun's father. Could it be the fox Si from 36 years ago?

Su Ji lowered his head and pondered for a while, remembering that a year in the world is a day of sleep.

36 years have passed in the human world, but Hu Si only spent 36 days in Qinglingsleep.Although Hu Si will age very slowly in Qinglingsleep, but the time in this Begonia forest is the same as in the human world.Since Su Ji was just a little girl when she met Hu Si for the first time, it means that she will leave this crabapple forest soon.

Then what kind of reason made her leave this crabapple forest?
The little fox looked at Su Ji and sighed, "You came at a very bad time."

"Why... isn't your father here?" Su Ji asked.

The little fox shook his head and said, "He is here, but he will be leaving soon."

"Where?"

"Daddy said that he has understood a spell and is going to a far away place to save my mother."

"Spell? Far away?" Su Ji pondered for a while, then asked, "What's wrong with your mother?"

Hearing Su Ji's question, the little fox lowered his head and said sadly: "One day, a very bad Taoist priest came here. He used a mirror to take away many clansmen. My mother was almost captured by him. Fortunately, I was rescued by a sister in white clothes. I was born that day, but my mother... passed away that day. My father said that it rained heavily that day, just like today."

Mr. Haitang is going to save his wife?Su Ji was slightly taken aback.

The little fox's ears drooped down, his eyes looked in one direction, and said:
"My father is under the crabapple tree in front. He won't let me disturb you. Go yourself."

After all, the little fox ran into the forest and disappeared.

Su Ji braved the heavy rain and walked slowly, pushed aside the branches of the crabapple tree, and saw a tree, a person, and a tombstone.

Under the tall crabapple tree, sat a man in red, with long black hair hanging behind his snow-white neck.

The downpour wet his hair and the red clothes on his body, but he remained motionless, looking at the tombstone affectionately, as if looking at the woman he loved the most.

Su Ji saw that there was only one word "four" engraved on the tombstone, presumably that was the name of Mr. Haitang's wife.

Stopping in his tracks, Su Ji realized that Mr. Haitang in front of him gave him a completely different feeling from what he had seen before.Mr. Haitang, who turned into a white sleeve in the tower prison, seems to have taken everything lightly. Now Mr. Haitang seems to be immersed in the endless grief of losing his wife. Unexpectedly, he, who is already a fairy, has such a fragile side .

"...I know who you are." When Mr. Haitang spoke, his eyes were still fixed on the tombstone.

In the voice, Su Ji found a crabapple flower floating out of his arms, the petals shimmered, and it slowly floated towards the red-clothed figure under the tree.

Mr. Haitang gently caught the flower, and said in a low voice, "You must have a lot of questions you want to ask."

Su Ji didn't want to disturb too much, so he omitted the greetings, and asked straight to the point: "How did you escape from the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda?"

"I have never entered the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, and I don't know how to get out." Mr. Haitang's tone was as calm as water.

Su Ji murmured in a low voice: "I heard that a fairy is imprisoned in the Qibao Linglong Pagoda. Could it be that the rumor is false?"

Mr. Haitang was silent for a while, and said: "A long time ago, there was indeed a Qingqiu fox spirit suppressed in that tower, but it was not me, but Qingli."

"Qingli...green fox?" Su Ji repeated in a low voice: "A blue fox?"

"It is a green fox that has turned into a human being. It likes to travel in different times and spaces, and travels in many worlds. The story I know about it is only a small part of its long journey, even the smallest episode. As for Those unknown parts have long been annihilated in the hustle and bustle of the world, and disappeared with the passage of time..."

After listening to Mr. Haitang's description, Su Ji felt that Qingqiu Huling's life was too long, so long that he couldn't find the shadow of that period of history that he was familiar with.And the Qing Li he was talking about was most likely the Young Master Tsing Yi who had made a one-year contract with him.

Mr. Haitang looked at the flowers in the rain, his eyes were astonished, as if seeing his own future.

After a while, he said slowly: "In the near future, I will have a decisive battle with Qingli. Qingli defeated me and wanted to put me to death, but I am already an earth immortal, so he can only destroy my body , but couldn’t annihilate my Yuanling. In order to exterminate it, he instigated Jiejiao’s disciples to use the Seven Treasures Linglong Pagoda that suppressed it, and suppress me at the bottom of the pagoda, allowing me to slowly consume my soul.”

The decisive battle between Haitang and Qingli?It was bound to be an earth-shattering duel.

Su Ji stepped forward excitedly and asked, "Since we know we will lose, can't we try to change the result?"

Mr. Haitang's face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Everything you see 36 years later is a foregone conclusion. But what you see and hear now are just phantoms in dreams, and no matter what you do, it will not affect the future results. When you When you want to make changes that affect the future, take out this crabapple. Remember, there is only one chance. If you can save your loved ones, my debt to Hongzhi will be repaid."

A favor owed to Hongzhi?

Su Ji remembered what Little Fox had just said about a sister in white who saved her mother from a Taoist priest. It seemed that the elder sister in white was Yu Hongzhi.

Thinking of this, Su Ji was stunned.He remembered that the little fox had said that his father was going to a far away place to save its mother.It is very likely that Mr. Haitang wants to use the nightmare technique to go back to the past today and save his wife.But because of Su Ji's appearance today, Mr. Haitang saw Yu Hongzhi's death, so he gave up the idea of ​​saving his wife, and instead repaid Yu Hongzhi's kindness, leaving the only chance to change the past to himself.

Qingqiu Huling will sacrifice himself to repay the kindness of human beings, which is something that many human beings cannot do.If the future is a foregone conclusion, then Mr. Haitang will change his mind today, which is also destined.But even if everything is doomed, Mr. Haitang's sincere love is from the heart, which is undeniable.

Looking at the back of the red-clothed figure, Su Ji couldn't help but be moved. It was an indescribable emotion that deeply shocked his heart.

Mr. Haitang gently waved his hand, sent the flowers back to Su Ji's arms, and said, "Is there anything else you want to ask? If not, just do what you should do. I want to be alone."

"There is one last question." Su Ji asked, "Why do you want me to become Fox Seven?"

Mr. Haitang looked at the rain curtain on the treetops, and said: "You will become Fox Seven, not my decision, but Fox Seven's decision."

"Fox Seven's decision? Why did it do this? What kind of fox spirit is it?"

"It is a [-]-year-old white fox. This age is still a child in the clan. This child was unsmiling, no one knows what it is thinking, and only it knows what it decides. If you want to pretend to be it , you must behave calmly, otherwise, once you are found out, you will definitely be killed."

"You just said... before you were alive? Could it be that it's already dead?"

"Fox Seven is not dead yet, but he will definitely die in seven days. Once Fox Seven dies, you will return to where you were before you came back, which means you only have seven days to change your parents' ending."

seven days?

Su Ji realized that time was running out, so he stopped bothering her and silently bid farewell.The moment he turned to leave, Mr. Haitang seemed to think of something, and suddenly said:

"Although I don't know the way to leave the tower prison now, but I think that I will know the way to be in the tower prison many years later.

Su Ji asked puzzledly: "Since you know, why didn't you tell me face to face at that time, instead let me ask you?"

"I didn't tell you, I'm afraid there is only one possibility, and that is to worry that the walls have ears." Mr. Haitang paused for a while, and said, "When you return to the tower prison, you must pay attention to whether there is any suspicious person around you, and that person is likely to leave Linglong Tower. key to prison."
