Cherry Blossoms Upon a Wintry Sword

Chapter 87: events of the year

Views:

Wu Ao is from the Wu clan, and has never left the Wu clan since he was a child.

It's just that the time was very different from now. The Yaoguang Great Array has not yet been laid, and the demons are rampant in the Yaoguang Continent. It is not easy to survive. Wu Ao had no special background, but was an ordinary member of the Wu clan. If he had to find out what was special, his parents died early.

In those days, it was extremely difficult for children without their parents to survive. The difficulties that need to be faced are not only demons, but also hunger and cold. Even though hundreds of years have passed, Wu Ao still clearly remembers that the day he and Tianjun met was a winter morning.

It was really cold that day, so Wu Ao went to the river early to make a hole and get some drinkable water from the river. It's just that the ice on the river is too thick. Wu Ao, who hadn't eaten for several days, was groaning with hunger. Wu Ao wiped away tears, gritted his teeth, and chiseled the ice bed in front of him with a blade that was not sharp in his hand. His body became colder and colder, and his movements gradually became rigid. The tears hanging on his cheeks even condensed into ice slag due to the cold. Wu Ao felt his strength was rapidly draining away. He gasped, lying on the ice, thinking A frozen little animal.

Every winter is the most difficult time. Countless people die in this terrible season, and he will be one of them. When the spring comes next year, the corpse will sink into the river and become food for the fish. Wu Ao's breath gradually weakened. Just when he was about to lose consciousness, he heard footsteps in his ears. Wu Ao used his last strength and raised his head with difficulty. The moment he saw the person coming, he even thought it was this The hallucination that appeared before his death - he saw a man in red clothes, the man squatted down, silently reached out to him, and gently wiped away the fine ice slag on his cheek.

"Why are you here." The man's voice was light, soft, warm like the sun in a spring day, "Poor little guy."

Wu Ao grabbed the corner of the man's clothes with all his strength, as if he had grasped the last hope, his frozen black lips trembling and unable to speak.

The man seemed to have understood what he meant. He used those warm hands to hug Wu Ao. Wu Ao felt the warmth of the man's chest, he breathed a sigh of relief, slowly closed his eyes, and showed a satisfied smile. If this is just an illusion, then dying like this may be a happy thing.

But Wu Ao didn't die. He was rescued by Tianjun. Not only was he rescued, but he also became a disciple under Tianjun's name.

Tianjun has come and gone without a trace, and it is a rare blessing to be a disciple of Tianjun. Wu Ao knew satisfaction very well. He already had nothing, so naturally he didn't want much, but as long as it was something he held in his hand, he would not let go no matter what.

Tianjun has a gentle temperament and loves his disciples very much. He only has two disciples, one is Gu Xuandu and the other is Wu Ao.

But the personalities of the two apprentices are quite different. Gu Xuan is both surly and outgoing, and he can always think of some ridiculous ideas. Wu Ao was gloomy and reserved, and because his speech was not smooth, he rarely communicated with people. And if you want to say that the two of them have something in common, there is no doubt that it is the terrifying desire for monopoly.

Because of these two apprentices, Tianjun did not accept a third apprentice.

In that uneasy era, Tianjun raised his two children so carefully, taught them swordsmanship, and the three of them depended on each other for life. It's a pity that God does not follow people's wishes. One thought of Tianjun completely changed the fate of the three.

Tianjun wants to set up the Yaoguang Great Array to avoid the suffering of the invasion of the demon clan. At first glance, this may sound like a good thing without harm, but in fact they are very clear in their hearts that in order for this formation to work, they must find a special formation eye, and Tianjun wants to use his own body as the formation eye. For the array to work…

At that time, Gu Xuan had already communicated with Tianjun, but he was afraid that Wu Ao would not be happy, so he hadn't told him yet. Although Wu Ao didn't know the special relationship between Tianjun and his senior brother, he clearly understood what this Yaoguang formation meant. However, he knew that it was too late when he knew everything. Tianjun had already quietly set up a formation in Kunlun. , just short of array eyes, can start.

"Why didn't you stop him?" This is why Wu Ao couldn't figure it out, he was desperate, hatred poured out of his chest uncontrollably, he stammered, but every word wept blood, "If he wants to Set up the formation, wait another few hundred years, and when I reach the cultivation level, I can go for him with a higher cultivation level, isn't it good?"

Gu Xuandu gave him a deep look, and said calmly: "I stopped." It was just three words that were understated, but he didn't know how many blood and tears were hidden in them. He and Tianjun went south all the way, and saw the tragic situation of countless creatures, and it was the battle in Dajing City that made Tianjun decide. The demons came from the sky, and Tianjun tried his best to strangle countless people, but the people in the city were killed and injured. They were just ordinary. Even if the demons were killed, they could not be resurrected. The ancient city built for thousands of years, after the First World War, there is only a vast scorched earth.

After the war, Tianjun heard the cry of the child. He and Gu Xuan followed the sound and saw a little girl howling helplessly on her parents' corpse. Tianjun was about to step forward to pick up the child. The half-dead demon suddenly appeared and swallowed the girl in one bite. Tianjun drew his sword and broke open the belly of the monster, but the monster's stomach was full of terrible venom, and the little girl was not alive.

Tianjun stared at the corpse of the child in front of him and didn't speak for a long time.

Gu Xuandu was a little worried, and reached out and held his hand. After a long time, Tianjun turned his head and said warmly, "Xuandu, I can't wait any longer."

Gu Xuandu said, "Master..."

"I can't wait any longer." Tianjun said, "I will rush to Kunlun today. The big formation is urgent."

Gu Xuandu said, "That can't be..." He still wanted to persuade him again.

Tianjun raised his eyebrows and touched his head. Now he is taller than Tianjun, but Tianjun still treats him like a half-year-old child. Tianjun said: "Xuandu, I don't want to be anymore. Seeing this happen."

Gu Xuandu was speechless.

"I don't want to see more children like you and Wu Ao." Tianjun let out a long sigh, "No wait."

Gu Xuandu's chest was dull, as if he was choking on something, he said, "Wait a little longer? Wait until I become as powerful as you... Let me go, okay?" Tianjun said that he is a genius, but two At the age of ten years, the cultivation base has reached the eighth realm. As long as you give him another fifty years, no, thirty years will be enough. He will definitely be able to break through the eight realms of cultivation and become the eye of the formation instead of Tianjun.

Tianjun showed a sly smile and said, "No."

Gu Xuandu said, "What?"

Tianjun said: "Silly Xuandu, you can't bear it, am I willing to bear it?"

Gu Xuan stood still.

"Just let me be selfish once, okay?" He discussed with him in a coaxing tone of voice, "Just once."

Gu Xuan was speechless. He knew his temperament. At first glance, he seemed peaceful and casual, but if he made up his mind, he would be very stubborn. No matter what anyone said, he couldn't change his mind.

This parting was doomed as early as when they met. All Gu Xuan could do was accept it. He respected him, and even though he was already in a state of distress, he could only cheer himself up and force a smile.

Because they knew Wu Ao's temperament, neither Gu Xuandu nor Tianjun dared to tell him about it in advance. By the time Wu Ao knew, everything was a foregone conclusion.

"Why didn't you tell me, Gu Xuandu, you hateful liar—" Unable to anger Tianjun, Wu Ao poured all his anger on Gu Xuandu, he was like an abandoned beast, hating His eyes were red, "You did it on purpose, didn't you? Did you do it on purpose?"

Gu Xuandu looked at Wu Ao silently, and wrote lightly, "Yes, I did it on purpose."

"Where's his soul?" Wu Ao said, "Find the soul, it can be resurrected... Yes, resurrection, the Wu clan must have such a way..."

Gu Xuandu frowned and looked at him: "How do you want to resurrect?"

Wu Ao said, "As long as we find his body and supplement it with his soul, Master will be able to come back!"

Gu Xuandu said, "What about the big formation?"

Wu Ao said indifferently: "What does the big formation have to do with me?"

Gu Xuan laughed bitterly, but now, he has begun to envy Wu Ao, if he can do whatever he wants, he won't end up in this field. With what he knew about his junior brother, Wu Ao could really do something that would destroy the great formation in order to resurrect the Heavenly Monarch.

So Gu Xuan lied. He said that Tianjun was gone, and his soul also dissipated. He said that the formation was the only thing left by Tianjun, so Wu Ao should not have other thoughts about the formation.

When Wu Ao heard this, he went crazy on the spot and tried his best to kill Gu Xuandu. In his eyes, this senior brother has become a hateful liar, as long as he told himself about the big formation earlier, He will use his own life to prevent Tianjun from doing this.

The two brothers and sisters broke up.

For a long time after that, Gu Xuan had never seen Wu Ao. Wu Ao seemed to have disappeared from this world. Tianjun was the meaning of his existence. Now that he is gone today, he has lost the motivation to live.

Gu Xuan felt the same way about Wu Ao's feelings, but he was much luckier than Wu Ao. He looked at the buzzing Dahan in his hand and showed a wry smile.

For the sake of the great formation, Tianjun's body has gone, but he has left behind a complete soul. But the sword intent contained in Tianjun's soul is too strong, and his body is not dead, so he can't escape into reincarnation at all, and only gradually dissipates in the mortal world. Gu Xuandu was so willing, after thinking about it, he finally came up with a perfect method, without moving the body, put the soul of Tianjun in the blade, use the sword to nourish the soul, let Tianjun Keep your soul intact.

It was just that the soul that entered the blade became ignorant and ignorant, like a child, and Gu Xuan was both distressed and joyful. It is distressing to see his lover become like this, and the joy is that at least he has not lost him completely.

Before Tianjun left, he warned Gu Xuandu of many things. He asked him to use the name of Tianjun instead of him to shock the demon clan, let him act as a chivalrous man, and protect the world for him.

Tianjun has a big heart and can hold the whole world. Gu Xuandu has a very small heart and can only pretend to be one person. But for their promise, Gu Xuandu still put on a red shirt and gradually became his appearance.

On the day when he finally cultivated in the tenth realm, he personally entered Bie'e and cut off the head of the demon king. At this point, there was a great chaos in Bie'e, the group of demons had no leader, and they had no intention of invading Yaoguang. The people of Yaoguang have enjoyed a hundred years of peace and no more wars.

Gu Xuan has become the new Heavenly Monarch.

It's just that he couldn't learn his soft temperament, and he mostly relied on his own heart to do things. As a result, in the eyes of different people, Tianjun has different appearances. Some people think that he is surly and terrible, and some people think that he has a gentle temperament.

Gu Xuandu carefully raised Dahan. He has been cultivated in the ten realms, and no one in the world can hurt him. It is a pity that the sword spirit has never been able to condense into a solid body. He can only talk to him, but he cannot even give him a hug. But Gu Xuandu didn't care too much, what he loved was his soul, no matter what he became, he liked it.

What's more, when you reach the tenth realm, you will soon be able to break through the void and rise to immortality. When you arrive in the immortal world, there may be a way to condense your lover into a real body.

With such thoughts in mind, Gu Xuandu practiced harder, but who knew...

"But who would have known that the thunder of that day's calamity was a hundred times more ferocious than usual when it was ascending." Wu Ao's voice was faint, like a ghost who was desperate for his life, "You are powerless to resist, and you will lose your mind when you see it. To defend against Tianlei—the Great Cold Sword is broken, and Tianjun’s soul has also been severely damaged—Gu Xuandu, you can say something nice and do things that make people feel so chilled!!”

Gu Xuan did not refute, but looked at Wu Ao indifferently.

Wu Ao sneered: "Your body was damaged by the thunder, and then you had to parasitize on the peach blossoms. You are only close to Lin Rufei to let him help you find your body!!!"

Gu Xuandu said slowly: "There is some truth to it."

"Look, he doesn't even dare to refute, Young Master Lin..." Wu Ao said, "You should finally understand what this Gu Xuandu is!!"

Lin Rufei said lightly: "I don't know what he is, I only know that you are not a good person."

Wu Ao's expression froze.

Lin Rufei said: "Since Gu Xuan has already used the Great Cold to resist the calamity, even if he was seriously injured, he should have ascended to immortality. For this, he is the only one..." He looked at Gu Xuandu and said softly, "Xuandu, if I don't get my memory back...you...do you still like me?"

Gu Xuan laughed, he touched Lin Rufei's head, feeling helpless: "Silly Xiaoji, when did I want you to get back your memory? You are you, whether you have the memory of Tianjun or not, I am happy You. If possible, I naturally want to protect you for the rest of your life and make you happy in front of the most beloved young son of the Kunlun faction. How can I be willing to let you take care of other things... It's a pity... "

It's a pity that the odd number Wu Ao was missed. He originally thought that Wu Ao was just upset, but he didn't expect that after hundreds of years, he still wanted to resurrect Tianjun. At this time, the Seven Kings of Bie'e have already left, and he has lost his ten-level cultivation base. If the great formation suddenly breaks, the mortal world may be a waste of life again.

But Wu Ao obviously wouldn't care about those things. If there was no Tianjun, he would have frozen to death on that icy river. He only lived for one person, and he just wanted to meet him again. Without him, he is just a humble speck of dust.

After saying what he should say, Wu Ao's expression became colder, and he stretched out his hand and took out the body of the Heavenly Monarch in the sarcophagus.

The surrounding slates seemed to feel the trembling of the eyes, and they began to hum non-stop, and the ground under their feet trembled.

Gu Xuandu suddenly squatted down and held Lin Rufei's hand. He had a body, and his palms had warmth. In such a tense atmosphere, he was smiling, and even raised his hand to wipe Lin Rufei's hair. The dust on the silk, Gu Xuan said, "I really like Xiao Chi."

Lin Rufei felt extremely uncomfortable, and he whispered, "Senior..."

"Especially when Xiao Jiu called me senior." Gu Xuandu said, "It's just a pity that I can't continue to accompany you any longer." He showed an apologetic smile, "I'm really sorry for not being able to watch Xiao Ji become so powerful."

Lin Rufei had a premonition that something grabbed Gu Xuandu, and her voice trembled: "Gu Xuandu, what are you going to do?"

Gu Xuandu raised his head and looked around.

At this moment, all Wu Ao's attention was on Tianjun's body, and he didn't care about Gu Xuandu and Lin Rufei next to him. Gu Xuan smiled and said, "Guess Xiaojiu?"

"No..." Lin Rufei slightly widened her eyes, "Don't..."

Gu Xuandu said: "Is Xiao Jiu reluctant?" He sighed, "Actually, I am also reluctant, but..." He smiled bitterly, "There must be someone to do it."

But he no longer wanted to be the one left behind.

This is the case every time, every time, Tianjun sets up a great formation, and Dahan resists the broken blade of the heaven for him. In order to let Lin Rufei's soul re-enter the cycle of reincarnation, he dissipated all his cultivation and could only parasitize in the peach forest, quietly waiting for his birth.

Hundred years of time, but it is like a blunt knife that grinds people, and Gu Xuan is in pain. He didn't want to wait any longer, and was afraid of being left behind. It was enough to experience this kind of thing once, but he had to experience it a second time. If it comes a third time, he will really go crazy.

"Let me be selfish for once." Gu Xuandu said, "Okay?"

Just as Lin Rufei was about to open her mouth, Gu Xuandu kissed her lips forcefully. The kiss was so hot, Gu Xuandu's strength seemed to embed Lin Rufei into her body. Water vapor floated in Lin Rufei's eyes, and he choked up slightly.

At the end of the kiss, the breath of the two of them was a little unstable. Lin Rufei was in tears after all, her fingers hooked on Gu Xuandu's sleeve, and she refused to let go.

Gu Xuan kissed Lin Rufei's tears, and kissed his thick eyelashes: "I know Xiao Jiu is reluctant, but if the big formation breaks, Xiao Jiu has thought about what will happen to Kunlun?"

Kunlun is the border of Yaoguang. Once the great formation is broken, this place will be the first to suffer. Not to mention the Kunlun faction, I am afraid that none of the mortals living here will be spared.

Lin Rufei's eyes gradually dimmed.

Gu Xuandu got up and walked towards the sarcophagus. At this time, Wu Ao had already taken out Tianjun's body and watched Gu Xuandu coldly. Gu Xuandu didn't care, he waved his hand at him and said, "Don't look at me, I do feel sorry for you."

Wu Ao sneered.

Gu Xuandu said, "But if it wasn't for your awkward temper, I wouldn't have kept it from you." He sighed, "I didn't expect that the two of us, brothers and sisters, would get to where we are today."

Wu Ao gritted his teeth: "Despicable villain, if you hadn't lied to Master while he was weak, how could he have been good to you?!" He pointed at Lin Rufei, "Young Master Lin is ignorant, so use your beauty to tempt him. !"

Gu Xuan thought about it for a while, and felt that things had come to this point, and it seemed that he didn't need to continue to hide, so he laughed and said, "Do you want me to tell you a secret?"

Wu Ao said, "What?"

Gu Xuandu said, "When I was with Master, Master made a confession first."

Wu Ao was stunned.

Gu Xuandu spread his hands: "I didn't expect it."

Wu Ao almost jumped up angrily, the blue veins on his forehead burst out, he almost didn't draw his sword and gave Gu Xuandu twice, Gu Xuandu laughed when he saw this, saying you, you, you, you know how to practice on weekdays, even the erotic palace pictures I don't even dare to look at it. How can I understand this? Master and I are in the same mind. It's your turn to oppose this monster

Wu Ao was about to faint from anger. If it wasn't for Tianjun's body in his hand, he would have moved his hand long ago. Gu Xuandu's cheap appearance can also be seen that in this relationship, Wu Ao There is really no way to take his senior brother.

Just as the two were talking, the ground trembled more and more intensely, and the formations painted nearby began to emit a dazzling red light, and the formations that had lost their eyes were about to collapse.

Gu Xuandu smiled and turned around, called Xiao Ji again, and took a step forward into the sarcophagus. Afterwards, his body began to emit a strong red light, spreading all the way along the formation, Lin Rufei stared blankly at all this, and replied softly, "Xuandu."

But his Xuandu had closed his eyes and fell into a long sleep.

Lin Rufei staggered up and wanted to walk to the sarcophagus, but was stopped by Wu Ao.

Wu Ao said, "Young Master Lin."

Lin Rufei looked at him and smiled bitterly: "Wu Ao, you never thought that Tianjun really woke up, how would he blame you?"

Wu Ao said calmly, "I'm not afraid of his blame." He stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Rufei's wrist, and smiled, "Young Master Lin, come on." Although his voice was gentle, his strength was very firm, and he forced Lin Ru Feila came to Tianjun's side.

Tianjun's body closed his eyes, at first glance he looked like an ordinary person, Wu Ao gently helped him straighten his hair, then took out two talismans from his arms and said, "Mo Changshan, set up the formation. "

Mo Changshan appeared out of nowhere. It seemed that Wu Ao had indeed left behind, probably because he was afraid that Gu Xuan would cause trouble. But now Gu Xuandu has been forced to take the spotlight, and no one can stop him.

Lin Rufei was drained of her sword will, and sat on the ground weakly, silently looking at the sarcophagus next to her. Under Wu Ao's order, Mo Changshan lowered his head silently and drew the formation with the cinnabar in his hand.

Lin Rufei said suddenly: "Do you still remember Mo Zhaocai?"

Mo Changshan did not respond.

"He's dead." Lin Rufei said softly, "I always wanted to resurrect you and take your head with me, but I ended up dying myself. You're a good dog."

Mo Changshan's movements were inaudible for a moment, but after a closer look, it seemed that it was just Lin Rufei's illusion. Also, what Wu Ao resurrected was only the body, without the body of the soul, how could there be emotions.

Lin Rufei thought a little disappointed.

The author has something to say: Gu Xuandu: I love you no matter what you become

Lin Rufei: Really

Gu Xuandu: Really, I know you when you turned to ashes.

Lin Rufei: ... Why do I think you're cursing
