The wind whistled in his ears, Qi Yin closed his eyes and fell like a meteor.
The earth is getting closer and closer, and the endless mountains and forests open their arms to him. Suddenly, a flash of white light appeared, and he fell into the soft cloud-like hair, opened his eyes, and saw the nine-tailed white fox's eyes that were curved like crescent moons. Qi Yin didn't say a word, rolled over to the ground, hugged the black cat, and staggered forward. The black cat is getting colder and colder, Qi Yin can hardly feel its breathing and heartbeat, it is like a cold coal fire, making no sound.
"Brother, come with me, I'll take you to find my god." Female Luo turned into a human form.
Qi Yin ignored her and walked forward in a muffled voice.
"You are obedient." Nuluo followed behind him step by step, "Your uncle cat can't stand the toss, let's bury it and let it rest in peace, and then I'll take you to Yunmeng Guze to find mine. God, she will help you heal."
Qi Yin suddenly stopped, biting the dagger and slitting his palm, opened the black cat's mouth, and dripped blood into it. It was completely a mass of coke, the eyes were melted by the high temperature, and the mouth was burned away, revealing a row of white fangs. The shocking appearance made Nu Luo shudder unconsciously. But Qi Yin showed no expression, he was like a walking dead man, silent. Nuluo could feel the cold sadness in him, like the tide of the sea, rising and falling around him. He was a drowning man, and he did not seek rescue.
This guy just jumped off the peak of extinction, just seeking death.
"Brother..."
"Why do you want to save me?" Qi Yin turned around and asked.
"Because..." Nu Luo opened her mouth.
Qi Yin interrupted her, "You follow me and let my brother protect me, not because I pity me, but because I am useful to you. Right? I don't know what else I can use for you, but from now on, you I won't believe every word. Please leave, although I am a waste, at least I still have a life." He stared at her and slowly put the dagger to his neck.
"Hey... you child," Nuluo stomped her feet angrily, "I'm really here to help you. You are very important, brother, my god uses golden yarrow to ask for luck in the world, three times in a row, All the hexagrams point to you. This is why we save you, you follow me, I will take you to see my god, and she will tell you the origin of everything."
A rustling sound suddenly sounded in the jungle behind, and several cold and evil demonic qi swept out of the forest and rushed towards Nuluo. Nuluo was taken aback and shouted: "Jiu Gai's devilish energy!? Brother, stay behind, let your sister-in-law come to meet this devil!" She roared, her pale nails skyrocketed, and her fur like white waves rolled out. , reincarnated into the appearance of a nine-tailed white fox.
The ink-splashing demonic energy retracted, condensing a slender black fox with a pair of red eyes overflowing with evil energy.
"Who are you?" Nuluo shrugged and asked in a hiss.
"You should ask your god." The black fox's laughter was sharp and thin, as if it was squeezed out of his throat.
The two demons patrolled opposite each other, one black and one white, as if the confrontation between milk and ink. The black fox's curved eyes are like two bloody moons, looking at the female Luo with interest, but not attacking. Nuluo couldn't figure out its intention. What happened to Jiu Gai? How can such a Taoist monster break through the enchantment of the magic sword? She couldn't understand it, but she couldn't ask the gods. Those ethereal spirits were hidden in the dark. Only when they needed her would they come to her ears and guide her in the direction she should go.
Why didn't this monster attack? It just wants to hold her down! She sensed something faintly in her heart, and was taken aback for a moment. She turned around to look for Qi Yin, but saw that the place where Qi Yin was standing was empty.
This stinky boy escaped while she was confronting the monster! Female Luo is furious.
"You can't stop him," Xinyuehu perched on the top of the tree and said with a low smile, "this is the destiny he must go to, the destiny that my lord wrote for him. He is about to die, Nuluo, I heard that you have learned a lot of sacrificial songs from your god. Sing it from now on, choose a good tune, and sing a dirge for this child, and send his soul to Haoli."
The night was like a cloud of ink splashed in the jungle, and the moonlight was shredded by sharp blades and sprinkled on the muddy ground like clumps of dank salt. Qi Yin kept running, the wound on his right arm was so painful that he could not feel the pain, and his mind was more awake than ever. Approaching footsteps and shadows are like ghosts, chasing closely behind.
He didn't know where he was going, he was just holding a cold black cat, which might have become a corpse, kept running and running away. As if escaping from an overwhelming nightmare, he couldn't help but wonder, would he be able to see Fu Lan again if he returned to the Southern Border Dawangzhai? The boy would be wearing a loop, washing clothes by the blinking stream, and hearing his footsteps, he turned his head, and his white cheeks were almost transparent in the light of the sky. Fu Lan will open her clear pupils and ask him if he wants to eat as usual.
He stumbled, his head and face slammed into the soil, blood covering his pupils, the world was dirty and muddy, blood red. He has no strength, this nightmare seems to grow endlessly, he has no strength to break free. He attached his ear to listen to the heartbeat of the black cat. After listening for a long time, he could vaguely hear a little pulsation. He wiped the blood from his forehead and put it into the black cat's mouth.
"Master Cat, Master Cat." He called it.
The black cat didn't respond, and the last bit of heartbeat was slowly weakening.
He struggled to his feet and looked around helplessly. The woven bushes shadowed each other, and in the distance there were torches, flickering like a ghost fire, illuminating the heads of people who were swarming in the woods. It was the Wufang disciple who was looking for him. He avoided the monsters and these mortals, stumbled and stumbled, and it took almost a whole night. After walking dozens of steps forward, staggering, and turning his face, he saw his father's tomb. Wooden stakes were erected around it, which should be guarded on weekdays. Perhaps because of today's change in the extinction peak, the guard's disciple left. The grass is covered with decaying grass, and the little fireflies are looming. The dark hole was silent, and there was a faint reflection of the water below.
Qi Yin stood at the entrance of the cave for a while, jumped in, and walked forward through the ankle-length puddle. Twelve golden cross handguards slowly turned on the bronze cauldron, shining with a gleaming luster. The colorful paintings are still on the dome, the white deer flies to the moon, and thousands of demons and mortals crawl on the earth, sending their gigantic gods congratulations. He staggered forward, walked through the long dark tomb passage, stepped on the debris of the broken stone figurines, and came to the door of the White Deer nave.
He pushed open the stone gate, starlight surged above his head, and countless bronze giant pillars stood silently, stretching toward the infinite darkness.
The statue of the White Deer sits majestically on the high basalt platform in the center. It is ancient and solemn, like an ancient king who has stood alone in the dark for thousands of years. Every inch of muscle clamored for pain, Qi Yin knelt in front of the statue exhausted, with her forehead against the cold stone platform, silently weeping.
"Great God Bailu... Qi Yin is praying to you, I beg you, save Cat Master..."
After an unknown period of time, a sigh sounded above his head, and the young man in white tapped his toes and landed in front of him.
"I said, how did you do this?" Bai Lu looked at him helplessly.
"Please," Qi Yin kowtowed mechanically, her forehead lost consciousness, "Please, please."
"It can't be saved. At least 80% of this cat's whole body has been burned into charcoal. Its self-healing ability is completely ineffective, and it is no different from a normal cat. Even with this level of injury, even the Su Sheng technique in the Wuluo secret method is not enough. I can't save it." Bai Lu shrugged with his arms crossed, "You know, the last time I just got rid of your demon curse, the young master lost his soul, and it took half a month to reunite, I really didn't. Method."
"I'll give you my body." Qi Yin said hoarsely.
"Why do I want your body?" Bai Lu looked at him and said, "I'm still missing an arm."
"God..." Qi Yin closed her eyes and wept, "You are a great god, you must have a way."
Bai Lu raised his head and sighed, "Why do you make yourself so miserable? You are too young, if you live long enough, you will understand that living is like sailing on the sea with a lonely lantern, the sea is vast, you will meet Another ship, accompanied by a long way. But the wind and waves are unpredictable, there will always be someone who will sink halfway, and someone will continue to move forward. No one can accompany you all the time, from young to old, from life to death. Can accompany you In the end, it is not your partner, but your own reflection in the sea."
Qi Yin's heart seemed to be strangled, he was silent and did not speak.
He lost his mother when he was young, his father when he was young, and now he lost his older brother. Such a light sentence could not heal the wound in his heart.
"In the final analysis, to live is to die slowly, boy, let it go." Bai Lu finally said. His silver eyes looked at Qi Yin, who was crawling on the ground, like a deep pool of water. It wasn't indifference or indifference, it was a kind of calm that saw everything. At this moment, the young man finally looked like a god, all emotions disappeared from his face, and finally he was left with a sculpture-like calm and indifference.
"What about Wu Yuli?" Qi Yin suddenly asked.
Bai Lu was obviously stunned.
"For you, is that guy just a passerby on the voyage?"
Bai Lu was silent for a while, without answering, only asked: "Is he still alive?"
"He resurrected you," Qi Yin said, "I am the body he prepared for you."
There was silence under the stars, Qi Yin couldn't hear Bai Lu's movement, this tired and world-weary god seemed to have lost his voice all of a sudden.
"It's really annoying, young master!" Bai Lu scratched his hair irritably. "You mortal spirits, each one is more troublesome than the other! Forget about your own troubles, but you have to involve the young master. Boy, listen carefully, you I was tricked by him. No one knows my great witch better than me. He gave birth to an exquisite heart with seven orifices. Even the young master is sometimes fooled by him. It must not be a coincidence that you are standing here. You paved this dead end and let you go up blindly."
Qi Yin suddenly remembered the demon who pretended to be Yuan Ku, and Fu Lan entered the Internet, and the monster could not help fueling the flames.
"It's him..." Qi Yin whispered in pain, "Why..."
"Because he can't get in here," Bai Lu sighed heavily, holding his thin arms, "he is a golden criminal, regarded as a traitor to the witch. My servants are all the high priests of the temples of all dynasties. Da Wuzhu, the secret technique is amazing. No matter how powerful he is, he can't beat a group of dead souls. As long as he steps in here, the servant will make him dead. So, he must let you in by yourself. However, boy, It's not a complete dead end."
Qi Yin raised his eyes, they were a pair of desperate and miserable eyes, which were so dark that they could not see the light after experiencing the catastrophe and grief of the world.
"As I said, I really can't help you. The last time the young master was attacked by the old man Fuxi and he died in the battle, it was because he was involved in your mortal affairs. Although the other gods and young masters I don't take it seriously, but that old man Fuxi's fire is really hard to bear. In addition, the young master is now weak, and it takes a long time to gather a soul, let alone the courage of the year?" Bai Lu's eyes fell on his face, Xu Xu took a breath, "But if you find a way yourself, it won't count as my help."
"I found it myself?" Qi Yin whispered.
"The first time you came here, you heard its voice, didn't you?" Bai Lu said quietly.
Yes, Qi Yin heard it. The heartbeat of Shen Xiong came from the inside of the statue, like Huang Zhong Da Lu, the bell and drum at the end of the sky. When it beats, it seems as if the heaven and the earth are resonating. Qi Yin's hands trembled and touched the huge white deer statue. He felt his heartbeat, pulsing hotly, and contained the power of a god.
"You have never died, you are just sleeping." Qi Yin said.
"You can say that." Bai Lu said, "My flesh turned to rain in the battle of Tianshen, but my heart still exists. I don't know who took my heart and sent it here. The key to my resurrection is not that the heaven and earth have been changed. , but this heart is awakened. Forget it, don't care, anyway, with it, the blood in your heart can live and die, flesh and bones, and this demon cat can be saved."
"Will I grow antlers like you? Will I turn into a deer?" Qi Yin asked softly.
"I don't know," Bai Lu shrugged, "I can't tell. At that time, the young master and you will be connected by flesh and blood, and will live and die together. Since Pangu created the world, there has not been a situation where man and god are one. You must be no longer human, but It's not a demon, it's not a demon, and it's not a god. I don't know what you should call it, it's probably a monster."
"Am I going to lose my mind? Like my dad."
"I don't know." Bai Lu said, "All living beings in the mortal world are grouped by similarities and divided into clans. They are afraid of the unknown, and even more afraid of things that are different from themselves. I only know that from now on you will not have the same clan, nor your hometown. You will be a lone beast. Wherever you go, there will be enemies."
Just like Fu Lan, Qi Yin thought.
What does it matter? There is no room for Fu Lan in this world, what's the point of him staying there? From start to finish, he was on the verge of falling. He was a limp weed, buried at the end of the crowd, no one saw him, and everyone stepped over his head indifferently. Only Fu Lan took his hand and told him that he was his younger brother.
But Fulan died, his bones were smashed to ashes, and there were no bones left.
"You can take revenge, and you can kill my great witch. Going against the way of heaven and tampering with divine destiny, my amazing great witch is lonely and dead." Bai Lu looked at the stars, his eyes were far away, in those pale eyes It seems that there is an unforgettable time. He said: "Well, he and I are a wisp of dust in the long river of heaven and earth, and it should have been wiped out in time. Everything in the world can last for a long time, but I should not live. Boy, I only have one condition, wait for you to complete it. Your wish, send me to my destined return, the unknown shore." The young man looked down at him quietly, his tone was flat, "Qi Yin, you know what this means."
Qi Yin's eyes were dead, and he said calmly, "I know."
Hundreds of millions of stars flickered silently above his head, Qi Yin quietly stared at the chest of the statue, his dark eyes filled with frost-like desolation. The white mist gathered at the top of the bronze pillar, and the god attendant wearing a white deer mask tucked his hands and looked in the direction of the gate of the nave. Qi Yin knew that someone who had no way had come in.
Bailu waved his sleeves, his white sleeves fluttered in the wind, twelve cross handguards lined up in a row, flew into the nave, and revolved around Qi Yin. Qi Yin grabbed one of them and stabbed the statue's chest. The lapis lazuli jade is meandering with delicate cracks. This kind of divine jade, which cannot even be shaken by steel, can only be pierced by divine weapons. The white deer heart revealed light, like a small silver flame, burning without temperature.
Brother, if I give up everything I have and become you, will you be able to come back
Qi Yin wept silently.
The blade turned in the opposite direction, Qi Yin did not hesitate to stab his chest.
The pain was like a blood-colored tide, drowning his consciousness. He seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss, a dark dream, and could never wake up. By opening his chest and changing his heart, he gave up the heart of a mortal and became a lone monster. From now on, he is no longer a mortal, nor a demon, and he will become a freak without a kin like Fu Lan. His past appearance was like a snowflake, then he moved away from him, time flowed fast, and finally settled on Fu Lan's faint smile in the real flame of red lotus.
Only death can exchange for new life.
He opened his eyes again, like a long-lost rebirth. The blood vessels are expanding, the blood is boiling. The world in his eyes has changed, and the invisible aura shows color in his eyes, and they grow and merge with each other. He saw traces of wind, lines of light. All the things he had never seen, things he had never heard, all appeared in front of his eyes and ears.
He opened his broken arms towards the stars and hissed. Bai Lu's soul turned into a white tide, madly pouring into his five senses and seven orifices. His body and face were almost deformed, hideous and terrifying. Bones grew out of the gap in the shoulders, and stretched out a ghastly pale white bone, and flesh sprouted from the bones, covering the bony arms with astonishing speed. Invisible power burst out from his body, or Bai Lu's heart, the dome swayed, the stars were crumbling, countless bronze pillars collapsed one by one, and the white mist god servants dissipated like smoke. The dust rustled, but all the dust and gravel were blocked by his side, floating in the air, as if there was an invisible wall in front of them. This wall is as hard as iron, blocking everything, and nothing can get close to the roaring man.
At the same time, the sky and the earth changed color, and the stars shook. At the foot of Wufang Mountain in Jinxi Town, people in the night market looked at the sky in horror and asked what happened.
In Jiugai Tiankeng, Wu Yuli pressed down the strings, and Ziying Butterfly fluttered around his fingertips.
In the depths of the earth, the god with the head and the body of a snake opened his eyes and woke up from a long slumber. Thousands of miles away, in the ruins of Yunmeng Guze, the wandering goddess turned back to her pale face, and the inaudible tremor in the water waves reached their palms.
"He's back." The gods whispered, "The god who died in battle, the white deer in the middle of the moon, and the sin god Jiang Yang, he's back."
After the earthquake, Qi Lingshu led Wufang's disciples into the White Deer Hall. The dome was torn apart, the stars were hanging upside down, and they were clearly extinguished. Most of the bronze pillar collapsed, submerged in invisible darkness. They carefully stepped on the few remaining giant pillars and walked towards the broken statue, which was empty, only a pool of dazzling blood and a bloody heart.
