I was the bane of everyone in Qingfeng Mountain. I was born with bone pain and could not live to be twenty.
On the day I was pushed into the forbidden area by my senior sister, I picked up a warm black jade pendant, and inside it was a thousand-year-old soul who was just idle.
He smiled in my ear: "Little girl, let me out and I can help you change your life, okay?"
He helped me fight off people who bullied me, helped me suppress the bone pain that tormented me day and night, accompanied me to the northern border to investigate old cases, and would always leave me half of the honey filling when grabbing a sweet-scented osmanthus cake. I thought that if I survived, I could build a small yard with him on the top of Qingfeng Mountain, plant peach blossoms and sell candy cakes.
But when I dug up old cases that had been sealed for thousands of years, I realized something was wrong:
Why do my bones that have hurt for twenty years vaguely echo his remnant soul?
Why does he sigh "I've been waiting for you for a long time" every time he stares at me?
The whole three realms wanted to catch him and kill him, but he stood in front of me and never refused to tell me what the secret he had kept from me for a thousand years was.
Later, the Wuwu Abyss collapsed and the Three Realms were overturned. I stood in front of the gap and understood:
It turns out that from the day he was cut open with a knife a thousand years ago, all encounters were fatal chess games that he calculated.
And I am the only one in this chess game who has to be protected by him to survive.
Later, the peach blossoms in Qingfeng Mountain bloomed a hundred times, and I left him a piece of candy cake every year.
The wind has passed thousands of mountains, and no one is close to my ear or answering me anymore.
