Bai Cang has been trapped in this realm for a long time.
In the Western Wilderness, if you can't keep getting stronger, sooner or later you will die at the hands of others.
He needs the Millennium Blood Vine.
Bai Cang personally went to see Zhanyun Mountain Master, who is a reckless monster. He said that he could give the Millennium Blood Vine, but he wanted Bai Cang to exchange it with the Pure Yin Furnace Cauldron.
Bai Cang asked if he could exchange other treasures, but Yunzhan Shanzhu only wanted the Pure Yin Furnace Cauldron.
Bai Cang didn't give an answer on the spot, he returned to Wuya Sect.
Qing Xun waited for him as usual, and when he saw him back, she showed a bright and flattering smile, her beautiful eyes were full of admiration, as if she was only waiting for herself, and all her expectations were entrusted to her. The appearance of softly calling his master, seemed to be a clear spring, gently swaying through his heart.
I don't need to hesitate in today's Japan. It's just a furnace. Although it's extremely rare, it doesn't have much effect on me...
But he didn't directly agree to Lord Zhanyun Mountain, maybe at that moment, he remembered the appearance of the young man waiting for him, so he hesitated.
That night, Bai Cang ordered his subordinates to cook a table full of meals.
The young man was delighted to see the food. Every time it was time to eat, it was the happiest time for him... Maybe it was because he was hungry and scared when he was a child, so the habit he formed could not be changed. No matter what he ate, he would eat cleanly, even if he was full. He is not willing to waste it, and will suck his fingers clean after eating... It seems that as long as he can eat enough, it is the most satisfying thing for him.
Obedient, sensible, never too many demands.
Clearly living in such a world, yet maintaining such innocence.
For a moment, Bai Cang even thought, forget it.
Without the thousand-year-old blood vine, I can still find other things... It's rare to have something that suits my heart, and it would be a pity to lose it.
Three days later, Bai Cang received a secret report from his subordinates.
Several demon sects in the wilderness mountains have been secretly in close contact recently, and they are recruiting soldiers, intending to secretly take advantage of him not to be attacked by the Wuya sect.
Bai Cang's expression was solemn, none of those devils were his opponents alone, but it was a bit tricky to join forces, and his cultivation base had been stagnant for a long time, and he was not sure how to deal with them. If he breaks through quickly, he and the entire Wuya Sect will be wiped out.
He doesn't have much time left.
Bai Cang understood a truth a long time ago, if you want to survive here, you have to keep getting stronger, kill others before others want to kill you, only your own strength can be relied on, everything else delusional.
Strictly speaking, there is no difference between him and Qing Xun. Here, they are all willing to do anything to survive. The difference is that Qing Xun can rely on him, but he cannot rely on anyone.
No, can't.
Bai Cang took Qing Xun to Zhanyun Mountain.
Bai Cang seldom takes the young man out. The young man leans against him, looking at everything outside cautiously and curiously. In fact, he yearns for the outside, but because he is weak, he has to depend on others, so he rarely takes him out. He will be like this Happy... He didn't think about what he might face at all.
Bai Cang looked at the young man with admiration and admiration, and he couldn't bear to abandon the vague pity deep in his heart. He would never have this kind of emotion.
Once we start to be weak, it means death.
As long as he can survive, he can give up anything, just like back then—he can shoot without hesitation, break Baizhou's neck, and watch him die before him.
Throw away any encumbrance that stands in his way, crush any obstacle that tries to kill him.
There was never a moment of soft heart and hesitation that allowed him to come to the present.
The Lord Zhanyun Mountain was very happy and warmly entertained him. At the end of the dinner, Bai Cang said to Qing Xun: You stay here, and I will come back as soon as I go.
The young man seemed very restless, and he didn't want to leave him for a moment. For him, the outside world was too dangerous. He grabbed the corner of his clothes in fear, with pleading emotions in his eyes.
He was begging him not to leave him alone.
But Bai Cang was unmoved, he just looked at the boy's hand coldly.
The boy flinched. Although he was very scared, he still timidly withdrew his hand and showed him a flattering smile. He was neither willing nor daring to make himself unhappy.
He hoped he wouldn't dislike him.
Come back and pick him up.
But at this moment, Bai Cang knew in his heart that it was just a perfunctory sentence, and he would not come back again.
He turned around and left there.
It's like throwing away an insignificant thing. In fact, he should have made this decision three days ago.
Now it's just about getting back on track.
Bai Cang got the thousand-year-old blood vine, and he began to refine the blood vine to prepare for his breakthrough.
His subordinates saw that there was no one around him, so they searched for a few more beautiful teenagers to give to him. Bai Cang didn't want them at first, but seeing the admiring and fearful eyes of the teenagers, he suddenly thought of Qingxun, who hadn't been there recently. After leaving Qing Xun, there was nothing around her, which was a little unaccustomed to him.
So he pointed casually, clicked on one and said to stay.
He doesn't need Shuangxiu's furnace cauldron, and these wastes are less than one percent of Qing Xun's. They are of no use to him, but it's good to keep them to relieve boredom.
The young man who was left behind was ecstatic. For him, this was the hope of living. He tried his best to please himself, just like Qing Xun...but different from Qing Xun.
Bai Cang couldn't tell what was different.
Then I gradually stopped thinking about it.
There is nothing more important than a breakthrough these days.
However, just ten days later, he met a person he thought he would never see again.
The boy who was abandoned by him, his bare feet were covered with mud and blood, his clean clothes were tattered, his thin body was crumbling, and he looked like he was going to die at any moment... But he was born, holding out a breath tenaciously and persistently, He stood in front of himself again.
The boy has climbed over thorns, covered with scars, and returned from a place where escape was impossible.
He looked at himself with joy and hope, as if being able to see himself again was his deepest persistence... But the hope in his eyes, when he saw the young man beside him, instantly shattered into pieces.
Bai Cang saw Qing Xun's despair.
In a trance, it seemed to see the former self.
When he was stabbed in the chest by Baizhou, didn't he feel the same despair? He understands this feeling, and he is unwilling to believe and admit the facts in front of him. For this reason, he does not hesitate to deceive himself and others, thinking that as long as he does not know the truth, he can keep the illusion alive.
Yeah... does he really know nothing about what Hakuju did
Maybe not.
Maybe it's just that he doesn't want to admit the reality, even if he maintains the last moment of falsehood, he still wants to cherish that warmth.
Warmth is the most luxurious thing here…
But what is false is false, and self-deception is nothing but a coward's self-evasion.
Bai Cang smiled suddenly, he looked at the boy lightly, and said calmly, "What are you doing back here?"
The boy staggered back a step and looked at him with strange eyes.
Bai Cang just thought it was ridiculous.
You just believe in me, believe that I will not abandon you
How could someone trust others so simply because he gave him food and clothing
Don't you know that you are just my furnace
The expression in Bai Cang's eyes was sneering, he didn't mind crushing the last trace of the boy's trust with his own hands, so that he wouldn't have any expectations for himself... In fact, it was his kindness to him, because he had accepted the cruel truth earlier , is often more useful than having false dreams, because at least you can live clearly, and you can die clearly.
Do not give others the opportunity to deceive you.
Bai Cang also disdains to deceive Qing Xun.
Although Qing Xun came back, it seems that he is not as useless as he thought, but... Bai Cang would not stay with a person who was abandoned by him and harbored resentment, even if Qing Xun looked weak, But carelessness and arrogance are the worst enemies of survival.
After all, Baizhou didn't think that he could kill him back then, did he
But Bai Cang didn't drive Qing Xun away either. Since he came back by himself, let him go. After all, he is also a pure yin furnace physique, and maybe one day it will be useful.
Because of Qing Xun's special nature, even though Bai Cang no longer wanted him, no other demon cultivator dared to ask for him, so he simply stayed in Wuya Sect and became a low-level handyman.
Two months have passed, the refinement of the thousand-year-old blood vine has come to an end, and Bai Cang is about to prepare for a breakthrough in retreat.
When he passed by the middle school that day, he saw the young man again, but within two months, the young man was no longer as bright as before, his face was pale and gray, his hands were full of frostbite, he was wearing tattered clothes, and he was as thin as a gust of wind It can be blown, which shows that during this period of time, there is no shortage of hunger.
The young man seemed to have returned to the beginning, timid and cowardly, he did not dare to approach him any more, and knelt down on the ground with other servants, maybe he didn't realize that he was actually looking at him all the time.
But that's all.
Bai Cang turned and left.
He never picks up what he throws away.
Everything is ready, Bai Cang is ready to retreat.
He built a secret room under his residence. When he breaks through, he is at his weakest. No one can disturb him, and he doesn't trust others, so this secret room is his strongest fortress. As long as he can break through into the true demon In the realm of the Western Wilderness, there are very few opponents for him.
But the accident still happened.
At the critical moment of his breakthrough, the secret room was breached. In order to relieve the boredom, his capable men and him replaced Qing Xun's young man by his side, and led the demon cultivators from the wilderness mountain range to kill in.
His subordinates looked at him arrogantly, saying that you also have today, as long as I kill you, I can take your place.
The young man looked at him fearfully, with a greedy gleam in his eyes, and hid behind those demon cultivators. Although he didn't say a word, he obviously got a lot of benefits.
There are also many members of the Wuya Sect, they all betrayed him, and their eyes are full of fear and disgust...
Bai Cang was not surprised by their betrayal, because he never trusted them at all, he just didn't expect that this group of wastes would have colluded with the outside, and the secret room would be broken so quickly, could it be that they thought the demon cultivators of the wasteland mountain range , Will you fulfill your promise to them
madness.
Five big devils teamed up to besiege Bai Cang. This battle almost flattened half of the mountain. Bai Cang's retreat was interrupted halfway, and his Qi and blood were retrograde. He couldn't exert his full strength, and he was seriously injured soon. go out.
fell to the ground.
He knew he was going to die.
If you make a slight mistake, you will be lost forever.
Death is not terrible. He has been waiting for this moment all the way... People will die after all, but dying at the hands of such a group of stupid guys makes his efforts seem a little ridiculous and makes his end seem ridiculous. Ridiculously scribbled.
But this is probably his fate.
Came into this world insignificantly, and left ridiculously, just like everyone in the Western Wilderness.
Above the sky, countless demon cultivators scattered, and Bai Cang knew that he would be found soon.
But he didn't want to run away anymore.
In his life, in order to live, he killed many people, his brother, his father, his subordinates, his friends... But he didn't regret it, because they betrayed him first.
Each of them wanted to kill him.
It's just that at this moment, he suddenly felt a kind of confusion. What is the purpose of living so persistently
The obsession to live is his innate instinct, engraved in his bones, allowing him to escape from death again and again, to come out of desperation... This is the first time he began to think, this obsession finally where to take him...
This is an endless road.
There was nothing he wanted on the road.
He is alive, but he is just a walking corpse manipulated by fate.
Just like he killed everyone who was unwilling to die.
Bai Cang closed his eyes.
Decided to accept his ending with joy, so that he would no longer be manipulated by fate.
The sound of magic cultivators flying through the sky came from the sky...
Getting closer.
At this moment, a pair of dirty hands suddenly grabbed him fiercely, and dragged him into a dirty and narrow hole. The dusty boy covered the hole with weeds, and then looked back at him timidly. .
Bai Cang was surprised for a moment, but soon recovered his calm expression.
That's right, take revenge on me, kill me, this is your only chance to take revenge on me.
Bai Cang waited calmly, waiting for Qing Xun to avenge him, waiting for Qing Xun to show his fangs... When he was weak, he was enslaved by the strong, but if he had the slightest chance, he would fight back without hesitation and kill their enemies , Kill those who have hurt them, this is the criterion of the Western Wilderness.
Revenge is in human nature.
Hatred is an innate instinct.
Whether he died at the hands of those demon cultivators or at the hands of Qing Xun, Bai Cang even felt that the latter was not bad.
Bai Cang waited patiently, but after waiting for a long time, the boy did not move.
He thought, maybe the young man thinks that such an opportunity is rare, and he doesn't want to make himself cheap like this. He can torture himself slowly and then kill him. He can also break his bones one by one, take out his meridians, and let himself Kneel before him like a dog.
Bai Cang still has many ways to torture people, which are even more terrifying and cruel... But he feels that with Qing Xun's vision and ability, he can only go so far.
But as long as you can vent your grievances and achieve your goals, the method doesn't matter.
Time passed by every minute and every second.
The magic cultivator in the sky failed to find Bai Cang, and finally left, and the outside gradually became quiet.
Just when Bai Cang thought that the boy was finally going to make a move, he suddenly turned around and got out of the hole.
A quarter of an hour later, he crawled back holding two moldy and smelly steamed buns.
Holding the steamed bun, the young man was uneasy and tangled for a long time, finally cautiously, tentatively brought the steamed bun to Bai Cang, and whispered: I only have this, I'm sorry, I'm too useless, I'm sorry...
Those pitch-black eyes shimmered like a timid little animal trying its best to get close to the ferocious beast.
He took out the food he had desperately retrieved, but he was still worried that it would not suit his appetite...
At this moment, Bai Cang felt absurd emotions for the first time.
Qing Xun didn't come to revenge him, he came to save him.
Why
This is the first time in Bai Cang's life that he can't figure out one thing, even when Bai Zhou wanted to kill him, he was never so confused.
He didn't understand why Qing Xun wanted to save him.
I didn't treat Qing Xun well, so I sent him out in exchange for a thousand-year-old blood vine. Even if he managed to escape back, I was ruthless and allowed him to be bullied and tortured...
Anyone would hate it, wouldn't they
Why doesn't he hate himself
Or even risk saving yourself
Seeing that he hadn't eaten all the time, Xu Shi became more and more apprehensive and humble. He flinched and wanted to withdraw his hand tremblingly...
Bai Cang stared at him intently, his eyes filled with emotion, he suddenly reached out, grabbed the boy's wrist, and said coldly: "Aside from being sorry, what else would you say?"
After being reprimanded by him like this, the young man felt even more ashamed. He closed his eyes in fright, and his slender wrist trembled in his palm. It was extremely pitiful.
Bai Cang has never shown mercy to anyone before, he has no such emotion, because the purpose of pretending to be a poor person is just to win your pity and sympathy, if you believe it, you will be the one who pays the price, and they will take advantage of it When you are not prepared, I will give you a fatal blow... Bai Cang is not in the mood to distinguish who is really pitiful and who is fake, he doesn't need that kind of compassion.
But at this moment, looking at the sad and fearful look of the young man, for the first time, a strange emotion appeared in his heart. The dense, obviously soft needles easily pierced into his hard heart, making him unable to say anything. More ruthless words.
But he had never comforted anyone, and he didn't know how to comfort someone. In the end, when the words came to his lips, there were only a few cold and blunt words left: There is nothing to be sorry about.
Hearing this sentence, the young man looked at him in disbelief, the flash of light in his eyes was bright and dazzling that Bai Cang had never seen before.
With a stern face, Bai Cang took the steamed bun from the boy's hand.
I ate slowly.
You don’t need to feel sorry, because I can eat anything, you have no idea, I’ve eaten dirtier food, more disgusting things than this before, what is a mere rotten steamed bun
I am not your god, but just like you, a living walking dead.
From time to time, demons fly by outside.
Those demon cultivators did not give up searching for them completely.
In the narrow cave, the boy tried his best to curl himself up into a ball, but even so, he accidentally touched his body, which made the boy look very frightened. Bai Cang really wanted to say that there was no need to be afraid, it didn't matter, but in the end he didn't know what to do. Neither said.
Because there is no need.
Although delayed for three days, the final result will not change.
It's just that he was the only one who died originally, but now there is a weak boy. When the boy summoned up his courage and chose to drag himself into this dog hole, it meant that he chose to live and die with him.
Live and die together...
Bai Cang smiled lowly. In his life, even when his trust had not been wiped out and he still had hope for human nature, he did not dare to hope that one day there would be someone who would live and die with him.
He thought that he would come and go alone, but at the last moment of his life, there was a young man whom he never thought of, the most useless and timid boy, who mustered up the courage to accompany him …
This time, Qing Xun chose him.
no food.
no water.
Bai Cang's injury became more and more serious, because he was interrupted halfway through the breakthrough, he was seriously injured, and his Qi and blood were disordered. He could feel that his life was passing, and even if those demon cultivators were not found, he couldn't hold on for long.
If possible, he would like to send the boy away, because it is not worth it to die with him...
Pointless.
It is better to live with one than to die with both of them.
But he is no longer strong, and he can't take the boy under his wings like in the past. This is the last thing he wants to do before he dies, but he is destined to be unable to do it...
Why bother
I'm not worth your saving.
fool.
Bai Cang's consciousness gradually became blurred.
Before he was in a trance, he saw the boy leaning over.
The boy who used to be timid like a small animal, who never dared to approach him, seemed to finally let go of his courage. He reached out and touched his face lightly, and then retracted it like an electric shock.
Bai Cang opened his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him.
The young man's eyes were tender, firm and decisive, and there was a faint smile on his face, a level of ease that Bai Cang had never seen before, as if he was about to be relieved...
Then he heard the boy say: Master, you can use me.
Bai Cang was startled, and instantly understood what the young man meant, and the young man also realized that if this continued, both of them would end up dead, so he wanted to suck him himself, as a tonic to restore his physical strength.
The young man leaned over, his thin body conveyed a weak temperature, like a ray of flame in the dark, flickering on and off, but it was the last hope... He looked at himself so intently, with a bright and focused expression, still There is a hint of joy, as if to say, Master, you see, I am actually somewhat useful.
Bai Cang wanted to push the boy away, his expression was cold and angry, and he wanted to reprimand him to let him go!
Even if I was going to die, it was me who should die.
But he was too weak, he was so weak that even the young man could easily suppress him, the young man cupped his face, greedily and presumptuously put a light kiss on his lips.
The last thing that stayed in Bai Cang's eyes was those brilliant and bright eyes, the most beautiful color he had never seen in his entire life.
... ... ...
Bai Cang's consciousness gradually lost, and he fell into a state of confusion. His magic skills felt the source of power coming to him, and he instinctively and unrestrainedly grabbed... When he woke up, the boy had no breath.
The boy's skin shriveled, his eyes lost their luster, like a skin-wrapped skeleton.
But there was no pain on his face.
It seems to be happy to accept this result.
Bai Cang hugged the young man's body, he felt the strength in his body, the weak vitality of the young man, like a ray of fire in the darkness, brought him hope of life, and he survived again.
But this time, he would rather not have survived.
He didn't know what kind of feeling it was.
He felt it was ridiculous... But this feeling was extremely real.
It turns out that there are people in this world who are willing to die for him and give everything for him. He will never betray himself or hurt himself. In this cruel and heartless world, he seems to be the only light.
It turns out that there is such a thing as sincerity in this world.
It turns out that there are people in this world that you can trust.
Bai Cang was here for the first time, in this boundless desolation and darkness, he saw the light of stars passing by the eternal night.
But at the moment he saw it.
The other party is like a shooting star, disappearing forever.
