The Exorcist

Chapter 6 The Lost City Chapter 50 The Stone of Immortality

"Do you love me?" Abai asked.

Is that the problem? Can he get the stone just by answering this question? It's that simple! No wonder Ruan Zhan said that he was too smart, making things simple and complicated, and doing so many unscrupulous things. It turned out that what he wanted could be solved with just one sentence.

"No, tell me after you think about it." Abai stopped Sima Nan, looking a little nervous, "You must think clearly, ask your own heart, and don't answer me casually. I beg you, Qian Don't lie, even if you say you don't love me, I will give you the stone, as long as you tell the truth. Just the truth!"

Looking at her beautiful, gentle and sincere eyes, Sima Nan was in a trance for a moment.

Does he love her? He couldn't tell clearly. If he loves her, he can abandon her, imprison her, and betray her; if he doesn't love her, why does she linger in his heart for so long? Why was she so different to him?

From the day he started practicing Taoism, he forced himself to stop love and affection. He just wants to study all the ancient Chinese arts and restore all the lost ones. Human emotions are stupid to him and he doesn't need them at all.

When he stayed in the mountains and married Abai as his wife, it was also because he wanted to find a safe place to practice the resurrection technique of the Matsui family in Japan, wanted to use Abai's divine power to help him, and also wanted to steal the secrets of the witch sect. technique. Although A Bai swore to abide by the rules of the witchcraft and he did not learn many secrets, at least because of A Bai's kindness and strength, he was successfully 'resurrected', and he had to say that he was with A Bai. The days together were the most peaceful and happiest he had been in so many years.

But none of this can explain whether he really loves her! Or he himself can't tell the difference at all, love is too strange to him, he doesn't understand it, and he can't understand it! And for that stone, he had to answer her before he could figure it out.

"I love you." He nodded solemnly, "I only love you!"

Someone at the pergola took a breath of cold air. Sima Nan knew it was Hong Haohao, but he didn't care at all. He could even deceive Abai, so what did Hong Haohao mean? She was just a pet he kept, a decoration he played with.

Abai looked at Sima Nan with a white face, not knowing whether the words she had been looking forward to for a long time meant joy or sorrow to her. She did not give the stone to Sima Nan immediately, and although Sima Nan was anxious, he could not bear it.

"Are you sure you love me? Those who can't lie will be punished." Abai murmured, "I said, no matter what you say, as long as you don't lie to me, I will give you a stone. You don't have to Make me happy."

"I'm very sure." Sima Nan said half-truthfully, "You are the first and the last one I love."

"real?"

"real!"

"If you lie——"

"Abai!" Sima Nan finally couldn't bear it anymore, "What I said is true. I really love you. If I lie, let me-"

Before he finished speaking, Abai suddenly rushed over and hugged him. Although she was a soul and had no entity, Sima Nan still felt the soft coldness pouring into his arms. At the same time, a soft little hand covered his mouth, "Don't swear! As long as you are sure, this is really what you feel in your heart." Just talk.”

For a moment, Sima Nan breathed a sigh of relief, not for the stone he was about to get, but for the long-lost hug. He is really greedy for her tenderness, and it is not easy for him to be away from her, but he cannot allow himself to be trapped in the land of tenderness and force himself to work tirelessly towards his goal.

"Here's the stone for you." Abai held Sima Nan's hand, and he immediately felt a warm beating sensation in his hand, which made him ecstatic.

Ah, stone, he has been looking for a magical stone for a long time, a stone that can fulfill his wish, and finally it is in his hands.

Abai took a few steps back and stared at Sima Nan from a distance. In addition to tender affection, there was also a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

"Don't be afraid. What I said is true. I really love you." Even though he secretly took the antidote after taking the love potion, even though he was not sure whether Abai deliberately put the antidote in the He can find a place, even if he can't understand his own heart, but he got the stone, what else is important? !

"Stone of Immortality, Stone of Immortality, you are finally mine, you can finally reflect your own value." He murmured, and then suddenly swallowed the stone into his belly in front of everyone's surprised eyes.

Abai looked at Sima Nan with a complicated expression. When he saw that Sima Nan's expression remained unchanged, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and smiled softly, "You didn't lie to me."

"Of course I didn't lie -" Before Sima Nan could finish his words, he suddenly felt something was wrong with his body, and an itching sensation came from his body. He subconsciously touched his chest with his hand, thinking it was just a small physical reaction. But before his hand left his chest, the numbness came again, and became more and more frequent, making him feel as if there were countless ants crawling in his body.

"Anan, what's wrong with you?" Hong Haohao asked loudly when he saw that Sima Nan looked wrong and scratched his body with his hands.

Sima Nan didn't seem to hear her, and didn't answer her at all. He stretched out his hand to draw a talisman and hit it on his body.

With a 'pop' sound, Sima Nan was hit by his own spell and took a big step back. He hit the tower door and spat out a mouthful of blood, but he didn't seem to notice this. He frowned and pressed his hands on his abdomen. , rubbed it twice, and then groaned in pain.

"A-Bai, what exactly did you give me-ah?" Sima Nan raised his head and stared at A Bai angrily. At this moment, the numbness in his body has turned into a huge pain like a thousand arrows piercing his heart.

Abai's face was so pale that it was almost transparent. She walked forward step by step without saying a word, but just held Sima Nan's head in her arms. Sima Nan wanted to break free, but failed. The huge pain made him unable to resist, but Abai's gentle and cold embrace was like an antidote, making him feel much better.

"What did you give me? Did you help Ruan Zhan after all?" He asked unwillingly while lying in her arms. Jealousy made his pain worse.

"Eternal Stone, haven't you always wanted it?" Abai said softly, with a gentle and sad tone, and his tears rolled down drop by drop like broken beads.

"You lied to me! The Immortal Stone can help me fulfill my wish, how could it cost me my life!" Another wave of pain hit, Sima Nan hugged the invisible but sentient Abai's body tightly, only feeling that she So delicate and fragile, it seemed like it would break in his arm.

"I have said many times that if you don't love me, I will give you the stone. Why don't you believe me? Why don't you understand that no matter what you want, as long as I have it, how can I not give it to you?" Abai's tears fell on Sima Nan's face, and they were actually warm, making him feel gentle comfort, and his mind couldn't help but become a little blurry.

"I didn't lie to you," he muttered.

"If you hadn't lied to me, this wouldn't have happened. I'm very happy to hear you say you love me, but if I exchanged this lie for your life, I would rather you not love me at all!"

"I didn't lie to you, I really love you. Ah -" Sima Nan continued to speak harshly, but before he could finish his words, the heartbreaking pain hit him again.

"Don't talk. I know you eavesdropped on the soul conversation between my master and me, but do you know what the immortality stone does?"

Sima Nan endured the pain and slowly faded away from his body. He felt as uncomfortable as his body melting, but he still answered Abai, "The Immortal Stone can help people live forever. I want to get eternal life to fulfill my wish."

Abai shook his head, tears still falling one after another, "So you heard it wrong. You heard it wrong! The Immortal Stone does not allow people to gain eternal life. It is actually called the Qing Qing Stone, which means eternal life."

"Ask about the love stone?" Sima Nan asked vaguely.

Abai hugged Sima Nan tightly, as if she wanted to rub him into her body and never separate him.

She regretted so much that she shouldn't have sent this stone all the way. It turned out that Anan didn't know the true function of this stone. She never understood why he insisted on this stone. Today she found out that he had misunderstood the purpose of the stone.

This sacred stone was accidentally obtained by the ancestors of their witch sect, and it was passed down from master to disciple until her generation. Because most of the leaders in witchcraft are Yajin, that is, women, this stone is particularly important.

In addition to the fact that stone souls and human souls are mixed together, this love stone has the property that it will never be abandoned unless given sincerely. It can also test a man's sincerity. If a man really loves the owner of the stone, then if the woman gives the stone to the man, after the man swallows the stone, not only will he not be harmed, but he will become the next owner of the stone and increase his spiritual power.

If he is a spiritual person, it will be of great help; if he is not a spiritual person, his dreams will come true all his life, as if there is a lucky star following him!

But for women, the wish it can help people fulfill is actually to get a sincere and unconditional love. It sounds ridiculous, but in a woman's mind, this is the most important thing in her life. With love, she can give up everything in the world.

The witchcraft religion has been passed down for nearly a thousand years. Most of the leaders who obtained the stone were single. Even if they married, they were married to medicine ghosts. Therefore, the stone has never appeared in the world and has never been given to any man. Only in her generation did the master predict that witchcraft would disappear, and she also met the person she truly loved.

Is it doom? She didn't know that even if she loved him and her life was compromised, she never regretted it, but now she regrets it. She wanted to leave this world completely, so she wanted to see him, so she wanted to give him something as a souvenir. In the final analysis, she was selfish.

She didn't want him to forget him! She still wants to know his sincerity! Now she knows, but she would rather not know.

He didn't love her, and he was going to lose his life because of lying. If the person who swallows the love stone tells a lie, the stone will suck everything out of his body, and not even his soul will be left. Then she lost him forever! forever and ever!

Why so stupid? When he eavesdropped, she and the master's ghost were speaking the local dialect. Even if Anan knew the national dialect, he was Han Chinese after all, so he might have misunderstood. Why had she never expected this? Now, he is about to lose everything because of his lies - his life and soul!

what to do? what to do? How could she let him disappear like this, but how could she save him?

"So that's it!" After vaguely understanding Abai's explanation, Sima Nan was completely disappointed.

He has been in love with Taoism since he was a child, but once he came into contact with it, he realized how vast what he wanted to learn was, and how limited human life was, and he could not understand it at all. Taoism emphasizes nature and longevity, but when a man reaches middle age, he understands that he will not succeed if he expects to practice. So he tried his best to learn resurrection techniques and anything that could extend his life.

For this reason, he indulged in it, did whatever it took, and also had some insoluble grudges with Ruan Zhan's father.

However, he failed again and again until his body died on his way to Miao territory to find the art of immortality. But he met Abai. Although she failed to resurrect him, she did not let him really die. She also made him accidentally hear about the eternal stone.

He saw that A Bai's master would come back to give instructions to A Bai after his death. He thought wishfully that the immortality stone could help people live forever, so he took advantage of A Bai's feelings for him and stayed with her. But now it seems that what he pursues is all false. No one can live forever, and no one can truly understand everything in this world!

But, does he really not love her?

Judging from the pain in his body, it seemed so, but why did he feel that there was something unusual protecting his heart?

"I'm sorry." Abai cried, "Don't leave me! Please."

Seeing Abai's heartbreak, Sima Nan wanted to agree to her, but judging from his physical condition, he knew that he was not going to die soon, and that he would not be left alive. If he couldn't do it, he couldn't agree to her, because he didn't want to give her the final deception in his last moments.

It seems that when people are about to die, their words are kind, and when birds are about to wipe out the people, their cries are mournful. People do have kind thoughts when they are dying. Just like at this moment, he suddenly felt that what he had been pursuing for many years was ridiculous. , How insignificant he is, he regrets destroying everything for these unworthy things.

A leaf obscures the view, and Nanshan cannot be seen. How many beautiful things in life has he ruined for his goal?

"I'm sorry for you." He smiled, and his gentle look reminded Abai of their newlyweds, "I shouldn't have lied to you, and I shouldn't have trapped you. Do you know why I did that?"

"No, I don't want to know, don't talk."

"But I want to tell you." Sima Nan said softly, "You have powerful powers, and you will be able to understand people's hearts even more after death. This makes me feel guilty. I am afraid that you will know that I am not sincere to you, and I am afraid that you will take revenge on me and reveal your secret skills to me. and stones to others." Sima Nan took a breath and continued intermittently, "I'm sorry, but I really have difficulties. I'm afraid that you will despise me for this, and I would rather you hate me, because - that is at least a strong feeling. Emotions." He paused again, "Seeking eternal life so that I can have time to slowly study all the Taoism is the goal that I must achieve in my life. I can give up everything for him, including you. But in fact - I can't give up on you, so I trap you. I don't want you to find me and see my shamelessness, and I don't want you to reincarnate and disappear without a trace. But I trap you and know that you are there. , I always feel like you will wait for me."

His words were so gentle that it made Abai cry heartbrokenly, and everyone else present stared at all this blankly, speechless.

"Will you forgive me? Abai!"

Holding Sima Nan's body, which had not changed in appearance but was getting lighter and lighter, Abai was terrified.

She wanted to say goodbye to him, she wanted to give him a gift, why did her love kill him! Yes, he did too many bad things, but no one knew his conflicts and struggles, no one knew his pain and anger, only she knew. So she thought, since everyone hates him, it's up to her to love him.

"I never blamed you." She kissed his forehead tenderly.
