Sangsang was still calm and proud, as indifferent as when she was on the Peach Mountain or in the mortal world. She did not show any extra emotions. In fact, she was very uneasy because she knew what the Abbey Dean wanted to do.
Her relationship with Taoism was very complicated. She was the deity worshiped by Taoism and also the gatekeeper chosen by Taoism for human beings. When Taoism decided to destroy her, it meant that the human world would abandon her.
She was getting weaker and could be killed now. So for the first time, she felt the reality and sadness of life. She began to feel fear and uneasiness, which eventually turned into sadness.
So she shed tears expressionlessly.
Fortunately, the night was very dark, and there was a dim lamp lit up because it was the only one. Just like the human world was already dark for her, there was still Ning Que, the only exception.
He was the only one she trusted, because he was her man. Because she had poured tea for him many times, spent a long time with him, and experienced countless life and death situations together. They were already inseparable.
Sangsang closed her eyes and leaned on his chest. She looked a little tired, but the indifference between her brows had been replaced by peace. Since the day she could not return to the Divine Kingdom, this was the only time she could truly feel at ease.
Ning Que hugged her from behind and said, "We will go back tomorrow. When we arrive in Chang 'an, no one can hurt you. Don't forget that you are Haotian. You used to be so fierce to me, but why are you so timid now?"
Sangsang did not answer his question about going back to Chang 'an. She said, "I am not as powerful as I used to be, so I have to be careful. As for you … you have been so disrespectful to me, but I did not punish you. You should be grateful."
Hearing this, Ning Que reached his hand down from her hair into her chest and held there. He said, "You are my wife. Even if you treat each other with respect, it should be on the banquet table. We are on the kang bed."
Sangsang suddenly opened her eyes. A trace of anger flashed in the depths of her eyes, which were as bright as stars. Then she became a little confused. If she wanted to become a human, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with his behavior.
Feeling that the hand in her chest was getting hotter and hotter, she frowned. It was obvious that she was not used to it, but she did not know how to deal with it.
This kind of intimacy was common in her human memory. From her childhood to Chang 'an, especially in that chessboard, she did not know how many times, but she still found it hard to accept. She was considering whether she should continue to remain silent and pretend that she didn't know, or wave her hand to disperse her world and blast him into the depths of the sea of snow to wake him up.
For some reason, she chose to remain silent. In order to dispel the discomfort and embarrassment in the depths of Tian Xin's heart, she chose to discuss a relatively cold topic with him.
"Chen Mou wants to kill me," she said expressionlessly.
As she wished, after hearing this, Ning Que's hand was still in her arms, but at least he stopped moving. After a while, his voice came from behind her ear.
"Are you sure?"
"I know everyone's past, so I know their future."
"In a closed world, as long as you know all the prerequisites, grasp all the rules, and have absolute computing ability, you can calculate all the results. I understand that."
She knew that this was the language used in Ning Que's world. After hearing it for so many years, she was used to it and did not want to ask. She repeated, "So, Chen Mou wants to kill me."
This was a typical reason of Haotian, or a miracle. The "Ming" Handscroll of the Tomes of Arcane was the specific manifestation of this miracle, and it was her declaration to the entire human world.
After a moment of silence, Ning Que said, "Senior Brothers and Sisters and I have vaguely guessed it, but we can't be sure, because we don't know what he wants to do."
Sangsang did not say it, but it was obvious that she was fully prepared for this.
"In fact, I have always been wondering. If you can calculate the future, just like what is written in the" Ming "Handscroll, you know that the Headmaster will turn into the moon, that the Buddha will hide in the mountains, and that the Abbey Dean will find another way. Then why did you come to the human world? You did not completely defeat the Headmaster, but you became weaker and more dangerous. "
Ning Que held her in his arms and asked in a low voice.
Sangsang said, "I can't calculate my own future. The future I saw in the past is too vague, and I can't be sure, because there are variables."
"What is a variable?"
"A person like your Headmaster who can go beyond the rules is a variable."
"It sounds very powerful."
"You are also a variable?"
"Why?"
"Because you are an outsider."
…
…
The room was quiet for a while, and the wind and snow outside the window kept roaring.
Sangsang was right. In fact, many years ago, when Li Qingshan, the Nation Master of Tang, used his lifespan as a substitute to calculate the future, he also saw something special about Ning Que — he was never in this chess game.
He came from another world, and he was an outsider.
Haotian could not calculate him, the Headmaster of Academy could not see him, and the Abbey Dean was the same.
Ning Que was silent for a long time. He felt that the identity of the Headmaster of Academy was like some kind of messenger that often appeared in religions — but he did not know whether it was the messenger of light or the messenger of darkness.
It was still too heavy, and did not fit the atmosphere of the reunion of the husband and wife at the end of A Thousand Miles to Find His Wife. He decided to change the topic from Sangsang.
"When is it due?"
He touched her bulging belly and asked with concern.
Sangsang's answer was very simple. "I don't know."
This answer stunned him, and he felt a little strange. He thought to himself, "Don't you know when you don't have your menstruation?" But on second thought, his wife was not a human, and it was indeed hard to explain.
If it was calculated according to the ten months of pregnancy of an ordinary person, he was wearing a very green hat.
He stopped thinking about these trivial things and asked another question that was equally important.
"A boy or a girl?"
"Do you want a boy or a girl?"
Sangsang did not turn around, but her eyes became a little bright. It seemed that she had thought about these questions a lot during these days of solitude in the cold region. He did not know if she had found that she was really like a human.
"Either is fine."
Ning Que thought for a while and said, "But a girl is better. I have more experience raising her."
The experience he was talking about was the time when he raised Sangsang as a child.
Sangsang nodded and said, "I don't know if it's a boy or a girl."
Ning Que was a little annoyed and said, "Why don't you know?"
Ordinary pregnant women knew their due date, but without the help of a doctor, there was no way to know whether the baby was a boy or a girl. But for an extraordinary pregnant woman like Sangsang, it should be the opposite.
Shouldn't Haotian know everything?
"Because I don't want to know."
Sangsang said in a low voice. She looked a little angry, but it was more like she was acting in a fit of pique.
She was still tall and plump, especially after she was pregnant. But lying in his arms and acting in a fit of pique, she looked a little cute, like a little girl.
Ning Que heard more jealousy in her voice. He knew that she was jealous … just like when she ran away from home in Chang 'an. But now she was jealous … of the child in her belly.
No matter who he was jealous of, it was still jealousy. This was what he wanted to see the most in his life, so he laughed heartlessly and hugged her even tighter. Of course, he was careful not to press against her stomach.
The two of them lay quietly on the bed.
The stone statue lay quietly on the table.
The big black horse and the indigo lion rested quietly in the corner of the room.
Not long after, the sky was still dark. But according to the time, it was morning.
Ning Que got up and began to pack up, ready to leave with her.
Sangsang looked at him quietly and did not say that she wanted to leave with him.
After packing up, Ning Que walked to her and said, "Don't play the game of not taking the initiative, not refusing, and not taking responsibility. No matter whether you want to leave or not, you have to go with me."
After saying this, he carried her in his arms.
The big black horse was very observant. It jumped like lightning and humbly lowered its body. After Sangsang rode on it, it turned back and carefully rubbed against her calf to show affection.
Sangsang rode on the back of the horse and looked down at Ning Que. She said, "Do you really think I don't dare to hit you?"
Ning Que turned over and got on the horse. He put his hands around her waist and held the reins tightly. He smiled and said in her ear, "It's not that you don't dare to hit me, but that you can't bear to hit me."
The big black horse buried its head very low and felt that these words were a little too mushy.
The indigo lion looked at Sangsang with tears in its eyes. It thought, "How could the great Sangsang fall like this?"
…
…
The couple rode on the Big Black Horse and left the Cold Region for the south against the biting wind and snow. The indigo-haired dog followed them closely and ran happily.
The route Ning Que chose was through the Snow Sea. The frozen sea was covered with two feet of snow. Even though the big black horse was tall and strong, it was still very difficult to walk. Ning Que did not know why he chose this route.
If someone could look down from the sky, they would be able to see that they had left a very clear mark on the surface of the sea of snow. Compared to the vast snowy land, this mark was indeed very thin, but it was not covered by the wind and snow again. It was a little strange, and no one knew what kind of method had been used.
Sangsang stood in front of him and looked down at the ground from the sky.
She looked at the mark on the Snow Sea that could not be covered by the wind and snow and remained silent.
Ning Que knew that she understood something and said, "I'm just making some preparations."
Suddenly, a bubble appeared in front of Sangsang. Its surface was very smooth and transparent like colored glass.
The bubble was very thin, as if it would burst at any time. However, the strange thing was that the bubble did not burst even though it trembled in the howling wind and snow.
There were two extremely thin cracks on the bubble, as if it would burst at any moment.
The two cracks were like two strokes, one stroke and one stroke.
The cracks were very thin and shallow. If the wall of the bubble was only a thousandth of the thickness of a hair, then the crack was only a thousandth of the thickness of the wall. It was impossible for ordinary people to see it.
Ning Que was not an ordinary person. He could see it, so his expression became very serious.
He felt that if the bubble burst, the world would be destroyed.
Sangsang asked, "Can you write that character now?"
Ning Que said, "No."
Sangsang was silent for a long time and said, "Let me know when you can."
…
…
"I didn't write a tragic ending, did I? Because, because, according to science … "
