Ice Fantasy Chapter 5: Illusion City (4)


Shi, are you still blind? yes bro. But it doesn't matter. Shi's smile is innocent and sweet like a child. Such beautiful eyes, do you have the heart to burn them off? Shi Wang saw that I didn't speak, and after a long time, he said slowly: Brother, what did Xing Jiu tell you?

Nothing, just I want to see your eyes, take off your blindfold.

Shi looked at me indifferently for a long time, and then smiled softly. I couldn't guess the meaning of his smile, but his heavy mist-like expression made me feel sad.

Well, maybe it's all over. Shi slowly took off his blindfold, and then I saw his crystal clear pupils intact, but bright red like flames.

Why? Why do you want to learn the illusion of the fire clan? Because it is powerful.

Why do you need such a strong illusion? For the greatest wish of my life. Be king? Is this your greatest wish? Shi looked at me and didn't speak. Shi, did you kill Xuanta?

Yes. Why?

Because he prevented me from becoming king. What about Lan Shang?

I also died because of me. Because she chose you instead of me, and her choice will affect the judgment of the father.

Shi, I didn't expect you to become like this for the sake of the throne. Brother, you can say that I am for the throne. I told you once, I have a wish, for this wish, I will sacrifice everything. No one can stop me, no one. Shi stroked his hair and said to me: Brother, look at my hair, it is so long, so no one can stop me.

When Shi finished speaking, the ice sword in my hand had pierced his chest. He looked at me and said: Brother, I never thought you would really kill me. Then he leaned over, smiled, and kissed my eyebrow. He said: Brother, after I die, please... Then Shi's eyes closed safely. He lay in my arms, sleeping like a baby. His snow-white and crystal-clear blood flowed out from his chest, spreading on the ground covered with snowflakes, and where it passed, red lotuses like flames quickly bloomed. Heavy snow fell from the sky, covering Shi and I.

Then my hair suddenly became very long, like Shi's hair, and it all appeared on me. I turned around and saw my mother-in-law standing behind me, her smile was kind and peaceful, she called me as she did when she was a child, and she said: Ka Suo, my dear prince. I walked over, hugged her tightly, and cried sadly like a child.

In the snow fog forest, I was in my mother-in-law's wooden house, I used to grow up here, and Shi's laughter still seemed to linger on the roof. My mother-in-law was combing my hair, she said: Wang, your hair is so long. I suddenly thought of Shi's hair, and then I felt waves of sharp sadness passing through my heart. I saw Shi's thin figure running in the heavy snow, I saw the mortal man I killed pushed Shi down, I saw me holding the young Shi in the snowy mortal world On the street, I saw the traces of us growing up together in the snowy fog forest, I saw me stabbing the sword into Shi's body, I saw Shi slowly closing his eyes, I saw Shi's blood flow all over the ground, I saw red lotuses blooming on the snow. The place where the red lotus blooms is as warm as spring.

I told my mother-in-law all this, she looked at me quietly and smiled, she said: Ka Suo, Shi left a dream, he wants me to give it to you.

The dream my mother-in-law gave me was more real than the one Xing Jiu gave me. I don't know why, maybe because of the length of the dream, or because I have the closest blood relationship with Shi, I actually forgot in Shi's dream that I was Ka Suo, but only remembers that he is the young prince of the Huanxue Empire, Ying Kongshi.

I am the second prince of the Huanxue Empire, and my name is Ying Kongshi. I grew up in the snow fog forest with my brother. The elder brother's name is Ka Suo, Black City.

My brother and I lived in exile for 30 years, and those 30 years were the happiest days of my life. He uses his only illusion to maintain my life in the mortal world. The first time my brother killed someone was also for me. When I saw my brother's stern face, I felt unusually warm.

Whenever it snows in winter, my brother will always hold me in his arms and use his clothes to protect me from the wind and snow. So until later, I didn't use illusions to shield Snowflakes. I hoped that my brother would hold me in his arms all the time, but since we returned to Xuecheng, he never hugged me again. Later we returned to Edge Snow City, and then we lost our freedom. However, I remember my brother once said that the one he loves the most in his life is me, and the other is freedom.

I always see my brother sitting alone on the roof watching the stars and the falling snow. Whenever I see his lonely appearance, I feel sad. Especially after Liluo died, my elder brother hardly ever smiled; before, he always smiled at me, his eyes narrowed, his white teeth straight, and his long, soft hair falling down to cover my face.

Because the elder brother wants to be the king, Li Luo must die, and the elder brother has no resistance. But I know his inner cries. My brother told me that he doesn't actually want to be a king. What he wants to do is to go to the Huanxue Mountain to live in seclusion, to be a happy hermit, and to drink and sing.

I once swore that I will give my brother freedom, even if I sacrifice everything. So I will become the king, and then use my supreme power to give my brother all the happiness he wants. I know that such a move is close to destruction, and even Ka Suo will not agree. However, I do not hesitate. Xuanta, Lanshang, and the phantom heavenly palace bestowed on me by my father are nothing but clouds in my eyes. Only Ka Suo's happiness is my destiny.

Actually, as long as I can remember, my brother is the only **** in my heart.

When my brother stabbed the sword into my chest, I didn't feel very sad, I just felt a little regret, not for my life that was about to disappear, but because I still didn't give him freedom in the end, king This position will still imprison him for the rest of his life. When I fell down, my brother hugged me again. This was the first time he hugged me in Renxue City, so I smiled happily. I want to tell him, brother, please fly freely in the blue sky, just like those free snowbirds, but I can't make a sound before I finish. I saw large flakes of snow falling on his hair, shoulders, and chiseled face. I was afraid that he would feel cold, so I bent my index finger and chanted the spell, turning all the blood I bleed into flames Like red lotuses, surrounded by him.

Brother, please freely...

When I struggled to wake up from Shi's dream with tears streaming down my face, I saw the kind face of my mother-in-law. I rushed over, hugged her, and cried out loudly. I never thought that when I was an adult, I would cry like this, with suppressed and swelling sadness, pouring out of my throat from my chest, and tears flowing down my cheeks like scalding fire.

When I hugged her tightly, I knocked off the hairpin of her hair, so her silver-white hair fell down and spread all over the floor. I have never seen such long hair.

I asked her: "Grandma, your hair...Grandmother smiled and didn't answer, and then I heard a calm voice behind me telling me: She is the person with the strongest illusion in the Huanxue Empire, and she is the grandfather of your father." The queen mother is the best illusionist and the best astrologer in the Huanxue Empire today, so she can give you the best dreams.

Then I turned around and saw Xing Jiu dressed in white. He smiled and said to me: Come with me, I will take you to a place, and then I will explain another dream to you, which is also your own dream.

Xing Jiu said: Before he died, Shi told me that if one day he dies, it must be at your hands, because only you can kill him easily. He asked me to pass on all his spiritual power to you after his death, and at the same time give you his last dream.

I touched my suddenly long hair, but I couldn't make any sound.

Xing Jiu took me to the ice sea, this place seems familiar, with black cliffs, white waves, surging foam, and flying snowbirds.

Xing Jiu, where is this? Offshore, the place in my painting. What are you taking me to this place for? Tell you about your past life. What was my previous life? Go into dreamland and see for yourself.

I walked into the dream that Xing Jiu gave me, and then found that I was still standing offshore, but Xing Jiu's shadow was gone. I looked around in a daze, and then I saw the swimming stone, standing black and lonely by the sea. When I approached, I saw a person tied to the swimming stone, with messy hair flying in the sea breeze, and his face was very much like my father. On his shoulder was a huge snowbird.

Bird, do you know what I miss most? I heard the imprisoned man say. In fact, all I want is freedom. I want to overturn this rock. Even if I fall into the sea and be smashed to pieces, I don't want to be imprisoned here and lose my freedom. The man paused, then smiled, shook his head, and said: How do you know, what's the use of me telling you. He looked at the snowbird and said: Bird, do you know? In the next life, I want to be the prince of the Huanxue Empire. I don't want to be a king, but because then, the supreme me can have the freedom I want. What I want most in the afterlife is freedom. Then the snowbird suddenly soared into the air, and then began to dive towards this boulder, hitting it repeatedly, and finally it crashed to death on this refining stone, and the blood bloomed on the black rock, like a bright red flame. Lian, and the chain that bound that person was knocked away, that person fell off the cliff with a smile, and the waves swallowed him up in an instant. Then I saw Xing Jiu again, the sea breeze filled his white robe. He raised his right hand, I looked in the direction of his finger, and saw the black rock.

I caressed the blood stains on the rocks, and those blood stains had almost disappeared, only some blood that seeped into the crevices of the rocks dried up and remained there forever. Ka Suo, the wizard who was imprisoned for violating taboos was actually your previous life. Xing Jiu, you said this is a dream that Shi gave me, so what about Shi? Shi's previous life is also in it, he is the snowbird who died for you.

I suddenly felt a sharp pain passing through my chest, I opened my mouth, and saw white crystal blood rushing out of my mouth, falling drop by drop on the black shore, where the blood flowed, everything bloomed like a flame The red lotus, wherever it passes, is as warm as spring.

A huge snowbird flew across the sky. When I raised my head, it made a loud cry, and then flew to a higher sky.

Brother. elder brother.
