Qing Hua Chronicles - C151
After a long while, the sound stopped, and the person carrying the lantern continued to walk through the water and into the cave. Not long after that, he saw Zhang Ge sitting cross-legged on the stone bed.
He stared blankly ahead, coughing from time to time.
Beside her, a transparent figure was holding a red lantern, also frowning. Mu Hong immediately recognized that it was a lone soul.
Hearing the sound of someone entering, she turned her head to look at the entrance to the cave.
He saw a beautiful young master standing there. He had a handsome face and although he had never smiled, it was hard to conceal his exceptional beauty. If he was even more embarrassed than a peach blossom, this was what Chang Ge had once described him.
Mu Hong stood there and looked at Zhang Ge, his expression extremely ugly: Why don’t you run, and don’t resist?
Changge laughed heartless: “If I run, can I run?” Think about it, there’s no way I can beat the Immortal Lord.
Mu Hong stepped forward, and said unhappily: Xiao Ziyang is also disdainful to fight with you! Maybe he’ll let you go.
It didn’t matter, what was the point of saying so much? Aren’t I still locked up so that they can discuss how to deal with me?]
Wu Tong retreated to the side while holding the red lantern. Zhang Ge looked at Wu Tong in shock and then looked at Mu Hong, this man was strange, both Xiao Yu and Wu Tong were afraid of him.
Previously, he thought he was just an ordinary person like himself. However, after seeing his power, Chang Ge couldn’t help but suspect if this person had some other identity.
Seeing her distant gaze, Mu Hong faintly said: To think that I was actually worried that you’d be lonely here. With a lone soul accompanying you, you should be living a very comfortable life, right?
Chang Ge was shocked: You can actually see Wu Tong?
Wu Tong curiously looked back at him, but when he saw the pair of peach blossom eyes, he instantly retreated to the side. This person had a strange aura, which made him at a loss of what to do.
Two thousand years dead. The moment Mu Hong said that, Wu Tong immediately felt wronged. If ghosts also had tears, he would definitely cry on the spot.
Zhang Ge kept quiet, it seemed like she did not know much about Mu Hong.
Mu Hong then took out some food he brought from the Stone Cauldron and placed it on the stone table. Looking through the entire damp stone room, it was dark and cold, completely not a place for a person to stay.
Aren’t Xiao Ziyang angry at you for sending me food?
Mu Hong said: I am a disciple of the Sect Leader, and the person guarding the cave entrance is a disciple of the Sect Leader, what does it have to do with Xiao Ziyang?
Yes, what does it have to do with Xiao Ziyang …
Longsong self-deprecatingly smiled and said, “I was just casually asking.”
Mu Hong continued: Xiao Ziyang is currently taking over the position of Sect Leader. In front of all the Immortal Cultivation Sect of the world, he has no choice but to take Qinghua’s face into consideration. Sacrificing the Little Demon Empress and accomplishing the Great Demon Emperor is the principle that a Sect Leader should have.
So I am the same person, Chang Ge said. We have known each other for a long time, but we can’t compare to a ‘mortal’ that can’t be seen or touched.
What you know is far older than what you know.
Mu Hong merely said that casually. Zhang Ge was slightly stunned, then laughed: “So what, everything is over. When I return to the starting point, I don’t even have the money to make him feel sorry for me.”
In the past, he, dressed in white, had stood at the Flashy Hall door like an immortal. Even if he pitied her, Xiao Ziyang had stood by her side at that time.
Zhang Ge remembered that Gu Yinfeng had once written a play book about a man and woman who had finally fallen in love after going through countless difficulties. However, because the man had been killed and lost his memory, everything that had happened had become a woman’s pain that came back to her alone.
A man finally falls in love with someone else and stays with them for the rest of his life.
On the stage, the woman flipped her sleeves and chanted: Nothing happened to him, nothing was over, everything was over for me, everything was over.
Chang Ge was young, and did not know how to play. Today, after savoring the details, she truly felt that the person who had seen through all the grudges and tasted all the flavors of life, was actually her bad brother Gu Yinfeng.
Even though Xiao Ziyang and her were different from the stories in the dramas, for some reason, the pain in her heart made her feel as if she and the girl in the drama had found a resonance.
If you don’t want to die in this cave, eat your food. Mu Hong said coldly, then picked up the yellow lantern and walked out: “I won’t let you die.”
Without looking at him, Longsong looked at the items on the table and then rubbed his cheeks to make himself look a little more ruddy.
Wu Tong, tell me, should I write a last word …
Wu Tong carefully moved closer to her: There will definitely be no problem with the Upper Immortal …
Chang Ge forced out a pale smile. She didn’t know if it was good or bad, but if those people really wanted her dead, and wanted her to atone for her sins, what could she do?
Her parents were old, and she had never been able to show her filial piety as a girl. Could she not die …
I feel so tired, I have to give up everything for a dream that will never come true…
Wu Tong didn’t understand, but since his Upper Immortal was tired, he would let go.
Let go?
It wasn’t a question of whether or not she would let them go, it was the fact that those immortals were unwilling to let her go. But then again, why would she want to let those people go?
On the stone table, Mu Hong brought some food. The dripping sound of the water echoed in the wet cave, and after a long time, the singing became restless.
It was impossible to tell day and night in this cave, and it had only been a few days, but she felt as if several months had passed. Could it be that the people from Qinghua Sect were going to keep her here forever …
Her body was extremely itchy, and her head was dizzy. The unlucky smell in the cave made her throat itch to the point that she wanted to cough.
Upper Immortal…
Wu Tong’s voice was both sudden and terrifying in the cave.
Chang Ge blankly sat on the stone bed and turned his head to look at him. His lips curled up into a smile: “What’s wrong?”
Wu Tong asked: Why hasn’t the young master who delivered food to Upper Immortal arrived in a day?
You’re talking about Mu Hong? The song gave him a headache, and he closed his eyes lazily: “He might have forgotten …”
Wu Tong definitely would not believe that person would forget. If he would forget, then he would not come here every day. Today was the fourth day, and every time he looked at Zhang Ge, his eyes were like dew in the green light.
Wu Tong remained silent for a while and then said: “Will he … He was discovered by those people from Qinghua?
Changge’s eyelashes trembled as she opened her eyes and looked at the stone wall in a daze. It is possible that the people from the Qinghua Sect are jealous of evil, if they find out that Mu Hong is helping me … Sigh, he was going to implicate him for nothing.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Ge flipped his wrist and took out a thin copper mirror from the Stone Cauldron. This mirror was given to her by Xiao Ziyang at the inn.
