Chapter 507 Extra Chapter 1: About Identity
Several thousand years ago...
Xi Yang (Qin Leyan) leaned against the table, watching the little fox hopping and catching butterflies in the distance.
"I heard your little fox has transformed into human form, so I came to see." The woman sat down and looked at the little fox in the distance.
Xi Yang looked at her: "I brought back a fox, and you guys are paying attention to it every day."
The woman smiled, raised her hand, and the wine from the cellar appeared on the table.
Xi Yang: "You're really not polite, you only pick the best ones."
“Who could be a bad choice?” The woman poured a glass for Xi Yang and then poured one for herself. “Seriously, the little fox has already taken human form. It’s not good to still call it Bala. We should give it a proper name.”
"got it."
"what is it call?"
"Xi Xian." Xi Yang took a sip of the wine. As expected of his treasured wine, it was truly delicious.
"Is it called Xixian because it strums the strings?" the woman asked.
"Pretty much," Xi Yang said. "Doesn't it sound good? If you don't, then don't drink my wine."
"It sounds beautiful, it sounds beautiful."
Xi Xian caught butterflies for a while, then ran over, transformed into human form, sat down next to Xi Yang's legs, and fell asleep with her head resting on her knees.
The woman looked at her: "She took a human form based on your appearance?"
Xi Yang stroked her head: "She hasn't seen many people. Of course, she will transform into whatever she thinks looks good."
Xi Xian rubbed against her leg.
“Then why not look like me?” the woman said. “I’m so beautiful.”
Xi Yang glanced at her and said coldly, "Not as pretty as me."
The woman fell silent.
After a few drinks, watching the peach blossoms fall, the woman asked, "Are you really leaving?"
"Ah."
"why?"
"I can't remember how long I've lived," Xi Yang said. "I've been living a comfortable life for too long, and I want to experience the joys and sorrows of life."
The woman looked at her: "I noticed that ever since you went out, you've been thinking about leaving. Did something happen?"
Xi Yang remained silent for a while before saying, "I've witnessed too much suffering."
The woman did not speak.
“War, crime, disease... there are too many,” Xi Yang said calmly.
“We can’t arbitrarily interfere in other people’s cause and effect,” the woman said.
“That’s why we need to leave here and go to their world,” Xi Yang said.
“But then your power will be very small. You will have no memories, no magic, and you will be just an ordinary person. You will grow old and die,” the woman said.
Xi Yang smiled and said, "You underestimate their strength and wisdom."
The woman remained silent.
Xi Yang drank a cup of wine and then patted Xi Xian's head.
Xi Xian's ears twitched.
The woman looked at Xi Xian and said, "Even so, there won't be a qualitative change in a short period of time."
“Yes,” Xi Yang said, “so we may not see each other for a long time.”
The woman smiled and said, "Can they outlive us?"
Xi Yang smiled and said, "No."
"What about her?" The woman looked at Xi Xian. "She has lived with you for too long. Is she willing to let you go? Besides, she has only recently taken human form and is not yet used to the human way of life."
Xi Xian opened his eyes.
Xi Yang covered her eyes to keep her from moving, and patted her shoulder with his other hand to let her continue sleeping: "I'm not leaving now, I'll stay with her for a long time. And there will always be a time to see each other again, even if I don't see her, she will see me."
"Since you've made your decision, I won't say anything more," the woman said.
"What about you? Your black snake hasn't come back yet?" Xi Yang asked.
The woman shook her head: "So from now on, I'll wait for him to come back, and I'll wait for you to come back too." "You have a good heart; you'll still wait for me to come back," Xi Yang said.
"Waiting for one is the same as waiting for two," the woman sighed. "These days are indeed too long, and very boring."
"Then you'll come with me?" Xi Yang asked.
“I’m not going.” The woman propped her temples up against the table and looked at her. “Decades pass by, and even if we’re in the same world, I won’t remember ever meeting you. Besides, appearances can change depending on your parents’ genes, and I can’t bear to give up my beautiful face.”
"You're afraid your little black snake won't be able to find you when it comes back, aren't you?" Xi Yang said.
The woman smiled.
After finishing her drink, the woman stood up and said, "Let me know when you're leaving, and I'll see you off."
"it is good."
The woman got up and left, disappearing under the peach tree.
Xi Yang watched the woman disappear, then looked down at Xi Xian, who was scratching her fingers.
Xi Xian sat up straight and looked at her: "When are you leaving?"
"There's no rush." Xi Yang fiddled with the gold lock hanging on her chest. "Once you've fully adapted to living here in human form, or if you want to go back to your original place, you can."
“I’m not going back,” Xi Xian said. “It’s no good there. There are endless forests and mountains that you can’t see any of. You can’t even see a bird. I’m the only fox there. If you hadn’t gone there by chance, I don’t know how much longer I would have lived that kind of life.”
Xi Yang smiled, his fingers twirling the end of her hair again: "You can be wherever you want, as long as you're comfortable. Bringing you back isn't to restrict your freedom. The world is vast, you can choose a place you like to live for a long time."
"Can we choose a few more places?" Xi Xian asked.
“Okay,” Xi Yang said.
"Could I have that large piece of jade in the hall made into a pair of bracelets?"
"You really know how to pick good things. You just keep looking at it and it's so tempting." Xi Yang herself doesn't like wearing jewelry, but the little fox does, and she likes to dress her up beautifully. As long as the little fox likes it, she can get it for her. "Okay."
"Sister, you are so good to me, you will fulfill all my requests," Xi Xian said.
Hearing her speak, Xi Yang released her hair and looked at her warily: "What are you doing?"
Xi Xian smiled and asked, "Can I skip practicing calligraphy today?"
“No,” Xi Yang said. “Illiterate people are not allowed here.”
“I’m not illiterate. I’ve been here for so long, I can read, I’ve read books,” Xi Xian hurriedly retorted. “I just recently took human form and don’t know how to write.”
Xi Yang looked at her.
Xi Xian looked at her for a moment, then stood up and mumbled, "I know, I know. People who can't write aren't allowed here. I'm going to practice my calligraphy."
Xi Yang looked at her with a smile.
As Xi Xian walked, he said, "Today we will lose a happy little fox."
"Then I won't write today," Xi Yang said.
"Hmm?" Xi Xian turned his head and looked at her with surprise and anticipation.
Xi Yang also stood up: "To avoid losing a happy little fox today, I won't let you practice anymore. Let's go, I'll take you to visit some neighbors."
Xi Xian was instantly delighted and turned around to transform into a little fox and jump into her arms so she could hold him.
Xi Yang stopped him in time: "Go by yourself."
Xi Xian paused in his leap.
Xi Yang walked to her side, took her hand, and led her outside.
Xi Xian waved her hand: "Sister, whose house are we going to?"
"You said."
"Go to the house where they keep a big rooster."
Xi Yang looked at her.
Xi Xian smiled.
"Walk."
After thinking about it, I decided to introduce the two people's identities.
After all, we don't know when we'll start another book about the two of them, so it's better to write it down now.
Hello everyone, it's been a long time.
