The ground he stepped on suddenly twisted and cracked like an earthquake, like a quagmire or falling into water. Qin Hao's feet were grabbed by several hands and pulled down. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free. Instead, he sank deeper and deeper. He was pulled off within a moment.
It wasn't until he was pulled down that Qin Hao discovered that the turtle breath and breath-holding techniques had no effect here at all. He fell into the water like an ordinary person who couldn't swim. As the oxygen gradually disappeared, he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath. Dizziness, dizziness, weakness in limbs, almost fainting.
In fact, he also knew very well that he was only a conscious body now, and the above-mentioned physiological phenomena did not exist at all. Death from suffocation, fainting, and death was even more ridiculous. However, what he couldn't give an answer was that this feeling was so real, so painful, it was almost like he was really drowning, and it even gave him a feeling that death was gradually approaching.
It is not that Qin Hao has never experienced this feeling before. The most recent time was probably when he was taken up the mountain by the old bald donkey when he was a child. Although it was a long time ago, he left a very deep impression on him. I still remember that when he was young and frail, he was so hungry that he snatched food from the mouths of wolves, tigers and leopards for the first time. He was chased by the wolves and had no way to go to the sky or to the earth. There were scratches and bite marks everywhere on his body, and almost all of them became A bloody man. Seeing that he was about to become food for a pack of wolves just for a bite to eat, luckily, there was always a way out, so he ran into a small river while escaping and jumped into the river, thus escaping. .
However, after escaping one calamity, another calamity came again. Qin Hao, a child who had lived in an orphanage since he was a child, had no father, no mother, and no one to rely on. He had enough to eat, some meat during the New Year, and a new dress. That is already a very happy thing. Where can I still have the conditions to learn swimming in a swimming pool
Not to mention that he can't swim, even if he can swim, his body is covered with scars and blood, and the wounds are so deep in many places that you can see the bones. Don't say that Qin Hao was only a half-year-old child at the time, even if Even though he was an adult, he still couldn't swim. He drank a lot of water and was finally washed to the downstream shore. He survived by luck.
That time was a nightmare that he would never forget for the rest of his life. The pain, weakness, helplessness, and desperate desire to survive made him vow to become stronger and have the strength to control his own destiny. With this belief, no matter how the old bald donkey tortured him in subsequent training, he gritted his teeth and endured.
The so-called inner demon is something born from Qin Hao's heart. It is a monster formed by the weaknesses and loopholes in his heart, or it can be said to be a disaster that a practitioner must go through on the road. Because of this, he can understand Qin Hao's heart. It couldn't be easier to find out the memories of experiences that had a great psychological shadow on Qin Hao and to realize this scene.
After all, for a person, growth in childhood is too important. Many adults who have incorrect views, or have great spiritual or ideological flaws, or even have mental illness, are all adults who encountered some unpleasant experiences when they were young. Caused by good things.
Qin Hao is also a human being, and he is the same. When he was a child, he was also afraid of many things. Even if he has grown up and become much stronger now, he can easily destroy the entire mountain, so what? The psychological shadow still exists. His fear is not just about wolves or drowning, but the helplessness of being weak and struggling to survive.
Death is often not scary. The momentary separation of consciousness and body does not actually feel much pain. What is really scary is often the helpless torment before death comes!
It has to be said that the inner demon's layout was indeed very successful. Qin Hao's psychological defense line was hit repeatedly. He tried his best to resist and struggled, but he gradually fell silent and stopped moving, as if he had just lost consciousness.
Seeing this scene, the happiest person should be Qin Hao's inner demon. With no news about the life and death of the old demon, Qin Hao's main soul consciousness fell silent or even disappeared. He was the one who benefited the most.
For ordinary monks, there are basically two results for failure in the Heart Demon Tribulation. Either they are quite lucky, or even if they lose, neither party takes advantage. No one can take the initiative, and the body becomes a fool. . Or, it will be a disastrous defeat. In this case, the inner demon can take over and occupy the magpie's nest.
But this is different from the old demon. After all, the old demon and Qin Hao are from the same body. The old demon is Qin Hao, and Qin Hao is the old demon. They are like conjoined twins who cannot be separated. If something goes wrong with one, the other will be affected. It's uncomfortable, if the water dies, the other one won't survive either.
But the inner demon is completely different. It is the parasite that the old demon often talks about to humiliate and ridicule Qin Hao. These three words are the same. It is an object that is rejected by the body and needs to be killed. If it is replaced by the inner demon, then Qin Hao is really no longer Qin Hao. In comparison, Qin Hao might as well let the old demon take control of his body!
Seeing that Qin Hao had sunk, several clones of Qin Hao from different periods also let go of their hands and came out from the ground. They joined hands and merged with each other like a pool of mud. Finally, a black figure appeared, with a body shape and a body shape. , guys who look exactly like Qin Hao, it’s like Qin Hao returned from a trip to Africa to mine coal.
Standing in front of Qin Hao, African Qin Hao grinned, with a strange smile on his face. He slowly stretched out his hands and placed them on Qin Hao's neck. His arms suddenly exerted force. It could be seen that he was in a very happy mood. Pleasure.
However, just when it seemed that the overall situation had been decided, Qin Hao suddenly opened his eyes. Two golden lights shot straight into the sky, as if they could pierce the whole world. He looked at himself in black with an expressionless face, He spoke softly: "Since you are tired, why do you need to wake up? Why don't you just lie down and rest forever?!"
Before he finished speaking, Qin Hao had already raised his arm. His flesh palm was much sharper than the blade of a knife. He pierced the opponent's chest without any hindrance and penetrated him.
Tick tock, tick tock…
The blood slowly dripped down Qin Hao's fingers. Different from normal people, the color of the blood was still so dark. The black Qin Hao had an expression of disbelief on his face, and the only bright eyes on his body became It gradually became darker, filled with unwillingness and resentment.
"Things from the past are all in the past. No matter how attached you are to the past, no matter how unwilling you are, it doesn't matter to me. I only know that no matter how tired or painful, I will always be there." If you can't die, then you can only die. Thank you for bearing so much pain and suffering for me in the past years. I know you are tired. Now, you can be relieved. Please forever Let’s rest…”
What he said from the bottom of his heart, Qin Hao didn't care whether he impressed the other party, he just wanted to say what was in his heart. Regarding the inner demons, he was a stumbling block on his spiritual path and someone who must be eliminated, but similarly, he It was also one of the strengths that allowed him to carry on until now when he was young. Whether it was obsession or regret, it helped him bear a large part of the pain and devastation. This was the reason why Qin Hao was truly grateful.
puff…
Gently pull out his palm from the black Qin Hao's body, and bring out a blood arrow, and a large amount of dark blood spurts out like a fountain. The next second, the black wound on Qin Hao's chest became bigger and bigger, and then it began to slowly dissipate, bit by bit, and just disappeared in front of his eyes.
"Why… "
Feeling the disappearance of the last touch on his neck, Qin Hao sighed heavily. From the moment he pierced the opponent's chest, the painful suffocation feeling like drowning no longer existed. He successfully killed him. With his own inner demons, he has accomplished things that many monks find difficult to accomplish in their entire lives.
However, at this moment, he was not happy at all, let alone relieved. On the contrary, he felt very uncomfortable.
It's like a fat man who weighed more than 300 pounds and worked hard to lose weight. He lost more than 100 pounds with perseverance that most people don't have. He almost weighed a person and became a bodybuilding man.
People praised him and regarded him as a good story and a legend, because he did what many people could not do in their lifetime. But only he knows that to get to this point, he has given up too much, such as his favorite food, such as lazy habits, such as a comfortable life, etc. This is not the life he likes.
Qin Hao feels a little like this now. The inner demon must be eradicated, but similarly, this is not what he hopes or likes.
The darkness continues, even though the black self has disappeared, the darkness has not been affected.
Not far away, another figure suddenly appeared and walked slowly towards him. That face looked familiar, yet strange. (To be continued)
