1812 Words
    Nan Xing was lost at the door for a while, and when she recovered and wanted to listen to the next dialogue, she saw that the door of the "Tianluo Temple" was suddenly pushed open, and she was caught by the door without checking. Hit the nose.       Then she raised her head and saw Fuling's puzzled face.       Nan Xing touched the sore nose and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Fuling, I didn't mean to overhear. I'm worried about you..."       But Fuling didn't listen to Nan Xing's explanation. She stretched out her hand and pushed Nan Xing and walked out, regardless of Nan Xing's doubtful eyes, pushing her a long way, and then she stopped.       "What's the matter, Fuling?" Nan Xing said with a puzzled look, "What's the matter?"       Fuling shook his head when he heard the words, and said, "It's nothing."       Nan Xing refused to say: "Impossible! You must have something to hide from me, come on, what the hell is it?"       "Compared to this," Poria looked at Nan Xing and said, "What are you doing in the'Tianluo Temple' for no reason?"       "Of course I, I am looking for you!" Nan Xing said, "I am looking for you this morning, but you are not there, and neither are your uncles and aunts. I asked others and heard them say that you were called away by the high priest. I thought you were mostly in the Tianluo Temple, so I went to the Tianluo Temple to look for you!"       Hearing this, Fuling sighed and said: "Well, even so, it's too dangerous for you to come to the Tianluo Temple alone? Don't you know that ordinary people can't approach the Tianluo Temple? If they are discovered, the trouble will be big!"       "I know..." Fuling said, "But, but I am worried about you... Also, in other words, why were you called into the Tianluo Temple by the Lord'High Priest'? What's the matter?"       Fuling rolled his face and said, "It's nothing."       When Nan Xing saw that she did not answer, he was even more puzzled, and asked reluctantly, "No, you must tell me, or I won't leave!"       Hearing this, Fuling couldn't help but stare at her with anger. For a long time, she sighed as if discouraged, her tone and expression also eased: "I will talk to you slowly after I go back."       "Good!" Nan Xing readily agreed.       As a result, the two returned to Fuling's home together, and Fuling began to tell Nan Xing about today's experience on this day. This time, the roles of Tuckahoe and Nan Xing were switched. It was Tuckahoe who had been talking, and Nan Xing was listening.       However, Nan Xing was obviously not a good listener. Whenever Fu Ling said a few words, Nan Xing would interrupt her and ask some questions. He had to wait for Fu Ling's answer before giving up. So what could have been explained in one hour, it was dragged to two hours?       Fuling was called by the "high priest" this morning to inform her of a very important thing-she was selected by the previous "Gu King" and became the next "Gu King". Although Fuling also knew the identity of "Gu King" and his status, he did not have a precise concept of this illusory term.       And when the "high priest" told her about the responsibilities that "Gu King" had to bear and the secrets to be guarded, Fuling was deeply shocked. Originally becoming a "Gu King" was a great honor for everyone in Miao Jiang, and they would be happy to accept this position. But Fuling is different from others, she is not a person who cares about glory and status. She just wants to live this life peacefully.       However, due to the teasing of fate, she was destined to have no way to spend her life peacefully. She was bound by the responsibility and sacredness represented by the identity of "Gu King". And accepting the position of "Gu King" means entering a lonely life. From then on, she will walk alone, abandon all relatives and friends, and will only accompany the name "Gu King" and the secret it wants to guard her life.       Although it is tempting to be able to serve Tian Luoshen after death, it is not as important to Fuling as the people around him. In her opinion, guarding Miao Jiang is not as good as guarding the people around her.       Therefore, at the beginning, Fuling refused without even thinking about it. However, after a while, when the "high priest" told her about the consequences of her rejection of the "Gu King" status, she hesitated.       Because "King Gu" was chosen by "Tianluo God", and there can only be one in the past. The predecessor "Gu King" has passed away, and a new "Gu King" must be selected within three days. Otherwise, Miao Jiang will experience chaos in order. Not only that, if the newly appointed "Gu King" refused the appointment, then the "Tianluo God" would regard it as disrespectful behavior and anger, causing disaster to Miao.       If that were the case, not only would she not be able to protect Miaojiang, but also the people around her. Therefore, she could only choose one of the two-abandon the people around her and protect the peace of Miaojiang; choose the people around her to make Miaojiang fall into chaos. No matter which choice, it will have bad consequences, and no matter which choice, it will make her suffer.       Fuling couldn't help but fell into confusion. The "high priest" knew that Fuling was only a twelve-year-old girl, and it was really difficult for her to make such a choice. But he had to let Poria make a choice, so in desperation, he gave Poria two days. Two days later, Fuling will give the "high priest" a reply. Because two days later, if no new "Gu King" appeared, "Tianluo God" would bring disaster.       After Fu Ling said these words, he said to Nan Xing: "Nan Xing, I am really at a loss. I don't know what to do. I always feel that whatever choice I make is wrong and will hurt others."       Nan Xing frowned slightly after hearing what Fuling said. Then she squeezed a big smile and said to Fuling, "Fuling, do you want to listen to my advice?"       "Of course!" Fuling nodded.       "I suggest that you agree to Lord'High Priest'." Nan Xing said sternly.       Hearing the words, Fuling was taken aback, staring at Nan Xing blankly, and did not say a word for a long time.       "Poria, what's the matter with you?" Nan Xing looked at the stunned Poria and asked in confusion, "Are you stupid?"       Fuling shook his head and looked at Nan Xing and said, "I originally thought that from your standpoint, I would make another choice."       Nan Xing smiled upon hearing this and said, "This is where you don't know me! After all, Gu King is your responsibility. Now that you have been selected, you have to bear this responsibility. As for me, you don't have to worry, just If I have time, I will still go to play with you and talk to you! We just spend less time together, and it's not that we won't see each other anymore."       Fuling looked at Nan Xing, although she saw Nan Xing smiling and saying these things in her eyes, in her heart, she knew that Nan Xing was crying when she said these words.       She didn't want Nan Xing to cry, she didn't want to see Nan Xing's tears, whether it was real tears or tears in her heart. Moreover, she didn't want Nan Xing to live alone, just as she hated loneliness herself, she knew that Nan Xing could not bear the feeling of loneliness. And the more Nan Xing said that he didn't care, the less Fuling could be cruel to choose to abandon her.       Nan Xing saw that Poria did not speak, knowing that she had not made a decision, she couldn’t help gritted her teeth when she saw it and said: "Poria, you can go to be the Gu King! Trust me, this is what I want you to do. . I hope you can be the  Gu King  for me."       After listening to Nan Xing's words, Fu Ling was taken aback.       But Nan Xing went on to say: "Do you think I can't live a good life without you? You look down on me too much? My dependence on you is not so deep! Even if you leave, I will think of you, but that's not the kind of uncontrollable miss you that you want. I can live a good life alone, and I have my parents with me! If you are still entangled, just ask your uncle What should I do with Auntie, I respect all your decisions."       Fuling glanced at Nan Xing and nodded slowly.       "Yeah!" Nan Xing smiled and nodded.       The next night, while Nan Xing was asleep, the door of the room was knocked suddenly.       Nan Xing put on his clothes suspiciously, and asked, "Who?"       The voice outside the door said: "South Star, it's me."       Nan Xing was startled when he heard the words and opened the door, only to see the figure of Fu Ling standing alone outside the door.       "Fuling, what are you doing so late?" Nan Xing asked.       "Nan Xing, I'm here to say goodbye to you," Fuling said. She lowered her head and couldn't see her expression in the moonlight. Her tone was also very flat, and she couldn't figure out her mood from it, "I decided. , I'm going to be the Gu King'."       "That's it..." Nan Xing looked at Fuling and smiled, "Very good, congratulations, you made the right decision!"       "Really..." Fuling was silent for a while, looking at Nan Xing, "I hope so."       Nan Xing was surprised to see that Fuling's face was full of tears as if he had just cried and was crying very hard.       "Fu Ling, you..."       "It's okay." Fu Lingqiang squeezed out a smile and said to Nan Xing, "Nan Xing, I'm leaving tomorrow. Today should be the last time I'm with you. Let me talk more."       Nan Xing looked at Fuling, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Okay, you can come in first. Isn't it cold outside?"       So tonight, the two talked again as usual. This time, Nan Xing didn't tweet a lot. She forcibly pulled out a bunch of topics, deliberately avoiding the part related to parting, but Fuling didn't say a word from beginning to end.       The two chatted all night, until the next morning, Fuling said goodbye to Nanxing.       "Goodbye."       "Goodbye……"       Nan Xing stood at the door of his house, looking in the direction where Fuling was leaving. When Fuling's figure disappeared at the corner, Nan Xing couldn't hold back the tears anymore, pouring out from his eyes...
