After that night, Fan Wuxi still healed Xie Bian as usual, racked his brains to find the past contact between the two and sent it to the eldest brother, as if he had sobered up, and he was a little sober from the manic depression that he couldn't ask for. It's just that the way he looked at his elder brother was a little more inexplicable and deep.
Xie Bian can no longer simply avoid the past, because Fan Wuzhen will not let him avoid it, and will bring up their past over and over again—the past at any time, the purpose is to make him unable to deny and ignore. He was deeply tired of this powerless and nowhere to escape situation. Facing Fan Wuxi's continuous attacks, he could only devote more time to practice, so that his injuries could heal sooner and he could leave this full-fledged environment earlier. A palace with too many strong memories.
After the spiritual pulse was able to flow smoothly, Xie Bian proposed to return to Fengdu.
Fan Wuxi said: "Fengdu is no longer what it used to be, and our soul weapons may no longer be able to pass through the Yin-Yang Monument."
"After being a general of the underworld for so many years, I have other ways to return to the underworld." Xie Bian said solemnly, "Brother Lan and Lord Cui must be rescued before Jiang Qulian can be completely eradicated."
"Do you think you can rescue them by sneaking into the Underworld?" Fan Wudi said, "Lan Chuihan is Jiang Qulian's previous life source, Jiang Qulian's ambition is mostly related to him, and Cui Fujun, I guess life and death Books play a very important role in the operation of the six realms of reincarnation. Regardless of others, these two people must be guarded by Jiang Qulian's heavy soldiers. We two living people are inconvenient in the underworld. People, I'm afraid it won't work."
Xie Bian frowned and said, "What's your plan?"
"I'm going to the underworld, but I think, instead of taking the risk to save people, it's better to take a drudgery against Jiang Qulian."
"What a drudgery."
"Let's steal the book of life and death."
"..." Xie Bian thought for a moment, "Actually, I have always had a guess during this period of time."
"What guess?"
"If you said, if I were Jiang Qulian, who risked everything to occupy the Hades, and wanted to be reborn as a human, it would be impossible to simply jump into the human realm at the end of the Naihe Bridge. His power, his cultivation Because, his memory, he doesn't want to give up anything, otherwise he will be reborn as an infant, wouldn't it be slaughtered by others."
Fan Wuxi nodded: "Yin Xiu is much more difficult than Yang Xiu. If he can reincarnate as a human with his current memory and cultivation base, he may really be able to cultivate the Dao."
"In this way, he will control the rules of the six realms of reincarnation. Now, he has almost usurped the power of the Northern Yin Emperor. As long as he doesn't drink Mengpo soup, he can reincarnate with his memory, but where and how to bring it with him?" With his hundreds of years of cultivation, or at least reincarnate himself with a super immortal root, at the same time, he must be able to command his army of ghosts to protect his own safety." Xie Bian said in a deep voice, "I think, All the answers are in the book of life and death, but it's not exactly the book of life and death."
Fan Wuxi was startled: "You mean..."
"Mr. Cuifu, as a literary judge, is in charge of the book of life and death and the judge's pen. This is known to all the world. However, the book of life and death in his hands is incomplete. As early as when Zhuanxu's family was in jeopardy, Emperor Haotian would write the fate of the gods. Part of it was torn from the book of life and death."
"Golden casket and jade policy."
"Yes, in order to prevent the fate of the gods from being spied on and dominated by others, Emperor Haotian ordered Emperor Dongyue to put this jade strategy into a golden box and suppress it on Mount Tai. That is to say, the book of life and death was born in the way of heaven, and it originally recorded all things in the three worlds. Even Emperor Haotian cannot control the reincarnation of life, and can only hide it. To know the ultimate secret of the six realms of reincarnation, one needs a complete book of life and death."
Fan Wuxi narrowed his eyes slightly: "If that's the case, Jiang Qulian should have discovered this secret by now, and he must get the golden suit and jade plan from Xu Zhinan's hand."
"These two people will definitely work together again." Xie Bian cast a cold gaze, "The book of life and death must not be combined with the golden casket and jade strategy!"
"Then, compared to the book of life and death, Yu Ce is obviously better, but Xu Zhinan hid himself, and I sent out several people to inquire about him, but none of them were found."
"Xu Zhinan's physical body must be extremely weak, and it's hard to find him if he hides." Xie Bian hesitated, "At least the Book of Life and Death must be in the Hades, and it's probably in the Red Palace. I think it's better to go back to the Hades first. If you find out Xu Zhinan's whereabouts must be found before Jiang Qulian."
"Okay, listen to elder brother." Fan Wuzhen stared at Xie Bian. If someone who didn't know the truth saw that expression, he seemed to be a really obedient brother.
Xie Bian's expression suddenly became a little stiff, avoiding Fan Wuxi's focused eyes: "We are going to Shushan."
"What are you going to Shushan for?"
"If you want to go back to the Underworld without anyone noticing, you have to use the City God's Temple and need the help of the City God. Master had the best friendship with Shushan City God Sun Xiazhen during his lifetime. I want to find him. In addition, I also want to know about the Wuliang sect. How is Song Chungui doing now?" Xie Bian had complicated feelings towards Wuliang Sect. Although Li Buyu was to blame for death, the world of cultivating immortals in the world was already in chaos. At this time, the pillar of Wuliang Sect could not fall, and he could imagine Song Chungui Now how hard it is to support the Wuliang faction and the world of cultivating immortals, if the world of cultivating immortals collapses, whoever will get rid of those evil spirits released by Jiang Qulian, the people of Kyushu will be in dire straits.
"Okay, let's go to Mount Shu." Fan Wuzhen looked at Xie Bian's sad face, and gently grabbed the corner of his clothes, "Brother, with me here, I will definitely stop Jiang Qulian for you."
Jie Bian shook off his hand, and said coldly, "You are making up for the evil you have done, not for me."
"In my heart, it's just for you." Fan Wuxi stared at Xie Bian without blinking, "Brother, do you know that after a hundred years of hell, what has been stripped from me over and over again is not just flesh and blood, And human nature. In my eyes, except you, everything in the world is empty, and I don’t care if they are all dead, I only care about you.”
"you… "
"What I said is true." Fan Wuxi's pair of dark, bottomless pupils only reflected Xie Bian's figure, "Brother can use me as much as he wants, but he can't leave me. Without you, I would rather the Three Realms be wiped out."
Jie Bian clenched his fists, his heart trembled violently. This person's obsession with him is as deep as the ocean, and he didn't know it for the first time, but every time he is exposed to him in such a straightforward manner, he will still be shocked and feel terrified.
Fan Wuxi grabbed Bian's sleeve again: "I'll take you to a place, and then we'll set off."
The two of them flew away from Daming Mountain with their swords, and Xie Bian couldn't help but look back at the palace that was getting further and further away. He hoped that he would never have to come back.
The clouds and mists in the mountains gradually lifted, and a huge charred ruin suddenly appeared in front of him. Xie Bian was shocked, and all kinds of thoughts came to his mind.
He was in a coma when he came, and he was already in the palace when he woke up, so he didn't see the Wuji Palace, to be precise, it was the ruins of the Wuji Palace.
When he and Zongzixiao both died, the Xianmeng divided up the 300-year-old foundation of the famous Zongshi. Li Buyu set fire to the Wuji Palace and sent people to arrest Zongshi's people everywhere, intending to kill the weeds and eradicate them. The members of the Zong family had to hide their identities and steal their lives, and Zong Xuan's swordsmanship was finally lost.
The world thinks that Li Buyu hates the Zong family because the Zong family killed his aunt Li Xiangtong, but in fact, many of them are because of a guilty conscience and want to cover up the numerous evil deeds he committed against Zong Minghe and Zong Ziheng. What could make him feel more at ease than completely erasing the daimyo Zongshi from Kyushu.
The Promise Palace, once magnificent and glorious, where thousands of people came to court, is now just a piece of scorched earth.
"What did you bring me here for?" Jie Bi'an felt extremely depressed, "I don't want to see it." Before he recovered his past life memory, he had traveled to many places and was curious about the former site of the Daming Promise Palace. Although Li Buyu set up an enchantment to prevent anyone from getting close to the Wuji Palace, he thought it would not be difficult to get close or take a look from the sky, but he had never been here, not even close to Daming City, Perhaps, he is repelling here instinctively.
"You're going to Mount Shu, no matter how you go, you can't get around it. The best way to get rid of fear is to face it."
The wind carried Fan Wuxi's voice into his ears.
Xie Bian looked at the ruined walls under his feet, feeling like he was stuck in his throat.
Fan Wuxi took the lead with his sword and flew down towards the Wuji Palace. Xie Bian followed without too much hesitation.
They finally landed on a piece of wasteland. There is still a wall left here, but other than that, it is no different from other places, barren, gray, and lifeless.
Xie Bian looked around, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and he didn't know whether this sense of familiarity was because he was standing on the old soil of the Promise Palace, or...
"Brother, can you still recognize this place?" Fan Wuxi said softly.
Jiebi looked at him steadily.
"I have searched here many times, trying to find Qinghui Pavilion or Bailu Pavilion, but they have been burned down, but here, because there is nothing to burn, the remaining ones are a little more complete." Fan Wuxi stared at Jiebi Ann, her gaze is undisguised and affectionate, "This is our orchid garden."
Xie Bian was stunned.
Fan Wuxi walked to the relatively neat wall and wiped off the thick wall plaster with his hands, revealing some very old traces that were almost invisible, one by one from short to high, like a sharp weapon cut out. He pointed to the tallest one, and gestured towards his chest, "When I was fourteen, I was so short."
Jie Bian's eye sockets suddenly burned and blurred almost instantly.
That was the long line he drew for Xiao Jiu in Orchid Garden. He drew it twice a year, and it stopped abruptly at the age of fourteen when Xiao Jiu suffered a drastic change in his life. It seems that his little Jiu only lived to be fourteen years old, and he will always only have such a tall, childish face.
Ten years later, the demon king who came back with the momentum of sweeping the world tore up all their friendship.
Xie Bian only felt that his heart was so painful that he could hardly straighten up.
Fan Wuxi looked at Jie Bian's wet eyes, his heart was broken, and he whispered, "Brother, if you want, I can just be Xiaojiu for the rest of my life."
