In the Sycamore Garden, in this small courtyard that has been silent for many years, and even the flight trajectory of birds has not changed at all, in the center of the patio, the huge sycamore tree is rapidly pulling out young leaves at a speed that absolutely does not conform to the laws of the four seasons.

I stretch, I grow, I bloom.

Even such an ordinary tree species, under the contrast of this vigorous and rapid vitality, also shows a bit of inexplicable nobility. The lilac paulownia flowers on the top are one after another, showing two rare charms.

In the corridor, two people were quietly watching all this, looking at the uncontrollable clouds in the sky, looking at the few weeds drawn out of the corner, and watching the green leaves of the tung blossoms gather, without the slightest growth law of ordinary sycamores......

It was only then that a faint sigh came.

Mingjue, who exuded a cold aura like ice sculpture and snow bricks, looked at the young woman kneeling on the ground, frowned and sighed, "Yingniang, you shouldn't call me." You know that once this small courtyard is broken, you will no longer be able to keep the time inside...... However, there is not enough spiritual power supply, and what the stepfather needs most is time. ”

That spirit rune was for her to throw out at a critical moment to buy time, not to call him and wait for his help.

This small courtyard was sealed by him with a secret method, so as to ensure that the stolen time would not be lost. But now, he let Yingniang in......

"And I, now that my spiritual power is exhausted, I can't keep the time he needs most to continue his life. ”

Ying Niang is also full of regret at the moment.

But......

She explained: "At that time, if I don't ask the eldest prince to save me, I'm afraid all the memories will be seen by that girl." In case she finds the place where the adults are...... So, do we have a chance to wait for the arrival of Emperor Pulp?"

That girl looks very ordinary, but she has majestic spiritual power and definitely not bad ability. If the eldest prince's spiritual power is not consumed, he is absolutely not afraid. But now......

Actually, she just gave it a try at that time.

How much the eldest prince values this small courtyard, she understands.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to bind himself for more than 100 years, how many days and nights, he lived such a dead and monotonous, day after day life. If another person had come, he would have collapsed in less than ten days, but he was able to hold on to so many days with such strong faith, relying on only a little hope in his heart.

When she pulled down the spirit rune, she didn't expect that the eldest prince would really save her.

――Truly a child raised by an adult.

Ying Niang admired from the bottom of her heart, and her eyes brought out two points.

"My lord, if you can know what you are like now, you will be very, very proud. ”

As soon as he said this, Mingjue's expression suddenly became ugly. Halfway through, he frowned, showing the sorrow of a young man.

"If my father-in-law knew that I had done such a thing, I am afraid that no matter what, he would not have forgiven me. ”

"No, it won't. ”

Chen Yingniang hurriedly defended. However, Mingjue had already interrupted her: "Now, I can't keep all the time here, and there are still three months before the emperor is born. These three months, but what should I do? Yingniang, is the spiritual power in your body enough?"

Ying Niang pursed her lips and smiled: "If it is not enough, I will never dare to ask the eldest prince to make a move and break this ban." ”

Mingjue was in ecstasy and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good to have enough, and the time that I originally kept was not enough for three months. I only dare to hold on to a little hope to rescue you...... Do you have enough strength?"

However, the joy was only for a moment, and soon, he reacted.

"There is a lack of spiritual power in the outside world, and with your means, it is impossible to accumulate enough spiritual power in a hundred and ten years...... Did you not listen to my advice and use methods that you should not have used?"

Ying Niang smiled slightly, her eyes flashed with moving starlight, and she looked at the half-grown teenager in front of her, her expression was full of tolerance.

"My lord, I knew what I had to do when I died. Adults have the grace to save the lives of my whole family, and this kindness is enough for Yingniang's ten lives to exchange. No matter what, I'll help him stay alive until the Emperor Slurry comes down. ”

Mingjue clenched his fists and did not speak.

After half a sound, he muttered with a pale face: "We have done so many wrong things, if my father-in-law wakes up, I am afraid he will never forgive me." ”

Ying Niang stood up and hugged the snow-white boy in front of her into her arms.

"Then you have to bother the eldest prince a lot of trouble. After all, Ying Niang didn't dare to see the cold face of an adult. ”

As she spoke, she felt the back of her hand burn, and then looked down, only to find that a burning tear was slowly seeping into her body on the translucent soul body. Then, it pierced through the invisible silhouette and plunged into the dirt.

Mingjue was crying.

"Yingniang, my father-in-law will not forgive me. I strangled you with my own hands, and now I have caused your soul to never be reborn......"

He raised his hands tremblingly behind Yingniang's back, those hands were jade white and delicate, without a trace of flaws to be faulted.

These hands are now the dirty and bloody that my father-in-law despises the most. ”

As he spoke, he felt the silent patter of Yingniang on his back, and suddenly became inexplicably timid: "Yingniang, you say, will his father-in-law wake up?"

"I'm so scared of ......"

-- I'm really afraid that he will never wake up, and I am really afraid that our 100 years of perseverance will finally become a failure.

I'm so afraid of your life, your soul that will never be born will be wasted in the end......

I am also afraid that when my father-in-law wakes up at last, he will look at me like a sinner in his prison, like the most unforgivable garbage in the hall......

"No, it won't. ”

Ying Niang comforted him: "Mingjue, you are the only child of an adult, and you are also the heir of a treasure that he regards. ”

"Whatever you do, as a father, he will forgive you. In this world, parents will forgive their children. The fate of your father and son, I don't know how many years to cultivate, when he brought you back from the bottom of Kunlun Mountain, you were already an incomparable treasure in his heart. ”

Under her soft whisper, Mingjue's expression gradually calmed down.

When he stood up straight, except for the tears that had not dried under his eyes, he was back to the cold young man. Cherish words like gold, and often have a longing as thin as silkworm wings in your eyes.

This small courtyard, which could not keep time, is now full of vitality. The little sparrows, who repeated the movements day after day, had already flapped their wings and flew into the distance.

With a "pop", a lilac paulownia flower fell, fell into the dust, and was lightly stepped by the two.

In an instant, it will be lost in the dust.
