Chapter 23 Sword Spirit
"Why do you say that?"
"You took me fifty dollars."
Su Ran smiled bitterly, "Oh, it's true that you just say that greed for money harms people."
"You admit it now," Li Xiaotong shouted, "Do you know, Qianqian is dead!"
Su Ran's face changed, "I understand."
"That's it," Li Xiaotong looked at Su Ran's calm and gentle appearance. When I heard that neither salty nor calm, I knew it. The anger in her heart turned into a roar, "She is dead! She is dead!"
Su Ran looked at the setting sun, "Li Xiaotong, I will ask you once, do you want to see Qianqian again?"
"What?" Li Xiaotong didn't understand Su Ran's words.
"There is not much time, and you have heard my words clearly. This is the only chance," Su Ran said, "If you miss it, you will forget everything."
"I think!" Without hesitation, Su Ran didn't know what Su Ran was talking about, nor did he know if he could, but Li Xiaotong knew it. She thought, very much, she didn't even see Qianqian at the last glance.
Not willing to give up.
"Okay, let's talk about everything after midnight." Su Ran took a look.
Close the door at sunset, rules.
There are only Su Ran and Li Xiaotong in the small grocery store. To be honest, Li Xiaotong is still a little afraid, not because Su Ran, but she has not had too much contact with Su Ran, but Li Xiaotong trusts him very much and Su Ran will not be detrimental to him.
What she was afraid of was the unknown next time. Su Ran said that she could see Qianqian again. What does that mean?
Su Ran looked at Li Xiaotong, "Are you scared?"
Li Xiaotong really wanted to show off and said no, but her expression and Ju Tai knew that she could not deceive Su Ran, "A little."
"If you regret it, it's still time to send you back."
"I don't!"
He was very stubborn, Su Ran asked, "Tell me, everything happened after you went back, including all the abnormal actions of Qianqian, and what you saw and what you heard, tell me in detail."
"Don't you know your mind, you should know it."
Su Ran chuckled, "Talking more can relieve your tension. Besides, I can only know your heart, but I cannot know your analysis and judgment."
Afterwards, Li Xiaotong talked about everything she encountered after leaving Su Ran, including the two figures she saw in a daze in her coma, and she had very little judgment.
When Xiao Ling asked them what she saw, Su Ran's eyes moved.
Time passed by minute by minute, and at this moment it was a torment for Li Xiaotong. Time was like a tide, like a beast, swallowing her bit by bit in the dark night. This small grocery store seemed to have become the entrance to the underworld.
"There are four hours left. If you are sleepy, you can have a sleep. I'll wake you up." Su Ran's spirit of looking at Li Xiaotong may not be able to hold on at midnight.
"It's okay," Li Xiaotong took a deep breath, "Su Ran, tell me, what happened to the female Su Ran that night?"
She originally thought that the female Su Ran was killed by Lin Xiu, and she thought that Su Ran and Lin Xiu had killed people. However, after seeing the disappearing grocery store, she didn't believe what she saw with her own eyes, and didn't even know whether the female Su Ran was a human or a ghost.
"You have thought about it. Once you know something, you can't get out of it. As for what will happen and what consequences will happen, no one knows." Su Ran knew that it was impossible for Li Xiaotong to get out of it now, but she still had to understand the dangers.
"It's like Qianqian?"
Su Ran was silent.
Su Ran's silence was like a kind of default, which made Li Xiaotong's heart sink for a moment. Qianqian's death did not last long, and the terrifying scene still appeared clearly in her mind. At this moment, Li Xiaotong knew what was surrounding her and suffocating her.
fear!
Deep fear!
"I'm not afraid," said Li Xiaotong, "even for Qianqian, I can't be afraid."
Su Ran glanced at Li Xiaotong, "Okay, since that's the case, then I will tell you what I know. The girl Su Ran who was in the dark that night was actually not a human being."
Not a human?
Is this considered a swearing person? I still want to say that the female Su Ran deserves the guilt.
"It's not a swearing, but a female Su Ran is not a real person," Su Ran explained, "Do you still remember Lin Xiu? He came from Shushan, and he respected swords on it, was good at making swords, was good at controlling swords, and used the three-foot green edge in his hand to protect the stability of a radius of thousands of miles."
"What you're talking about is a fairy tale novel."
"This world is not as simple as you see, nor is it as small as you see. It's like the parallel world you should understand."
"I understand." Actually, Li Xiaotong didn't understand much either.
"After thousands of years of sword casting in Shushan, people there discovered a way to make the sword cast more spiritual."
“What method?”
The things Su Ran said only appear in those novels.
"Salvation of the sword with a living person."
Li Xiaotong was shocked, "What did you say? Living people? How could they do that!"
Su Ran shook his head, "Not only a living person, but also a little girl under the age of eight."
Li Xiaotong shouted, "Are they still humans? No one cares about them!"
"Constrain?" Su Ran smiled, "That's Shushan, who cares? If you hadn't met Lin Xiu and I, you wouldn't have known that there was Shushan, so how could you talk about it? Moreover, those little girls were voluntarily, what could you say?"
"Volunteer? I don't believe it!"
"There is no way to do it if you don't believe it. Volunteering means volunteering. After sacrificing the sword, you will become the sword spirit in the Flying Sword of Shushan. You can have some strange abilities as you grow up."
Li Xiaotong felt a headache, "Su Ran, why do I feel like you are lying to me with a novel? What you said is obviously the plot in the novel story."
Su Ran smiled and said nothing.
If I hadn't become the owner of this grocery store, I wouldn't believe these things, not to mention you!
"However, the formation of the sword spirit is not 100%, or it is very difficult. The appearance of a sword spirit requires even a hundred children. Therefore, the sword spirit is very precious in Shushan."
Su Ran found that he had really told the truth. He was telling the truth, but the more he said it, the more he wanted to talk nonsense, can this be more similar to the plot in fantasy novels?
Li Xiaotong was silent, she was silent about this number, one hundred!
Those are a hundred living lives.
"What you mean is that the female Su Ran is a sword spirit."
"Yes, so, in the true sense, we didn't kill anyone."
Li Xiaotong was silent for a moment, "But, she was still dead, no matter whether it was a human or a sword spirit, she was still dead, just like Qianqian, and she could never survive again."
Su Ran looked at Li Xiaotong and didn't know what to say.
For a moment, neither of them spoke. Su Ran was waiting for a while and there was nothing to say. If Li Xiaotong didn't ask, he was happy to tell her less.
Li Xiaotong was silent, not sure whether she thought of Qianqian or something else.
"Okay, the time is coming soon, be ready," Su Ran stood up, took out a black umbrella and gave it to Li Xiaotong, "Remember, what you see and hear next are top secrets, and you must not tell anyone."
Li Xiaotong took the black umbrella and didn't know why she had to hold an umbrella wherever she went. "It seems like you are an underground spy." Now she is just kidding to relieve her nervousness.
Su Ran took out a candle, which was only the size of a finger and was very white.
Candle?
Li Xiaotong was surprised, "What kind of candle is this?"
"This candle is very expensive. It is usually something that ordinary people can't afford. This time it will be cheaper. You will follow me in a while and you can't walk around. Remember!" Su Ran looked at the clock on the wall and pointed at twelve o'clock, and then lit the candle.
The golden flames burned, and then Li Xiaotong saw that it was foggy beside her.
Chapter completed!
