Are you angry? Absolutely.
For such a kind, peaceful girl, who is like a new rain in the empty mountain, to be betrothed by such a shameless man, anyone would feel violent and angry, but to Chen Changsheng... this is actually a good thing . Because of the war with the demons, the human world is actually just as concerned about marriage as the Xiuling clan. There are many young people who have marriage contracts like him and her. As she said before, marriage contracts are the most respected. A kind of contract, if there were no special circumstances, it would be difficult to break it-fortunately, both he and she were treated badly.
This sentence sounds a bit strange, but it makes sense. It is precisely because the partners of the marriage contract are so bad that there is the motivation and reason to break the marriage contract. The seemingly troublesome problem was solved easily like this, and Chen Changsheng suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. He decided to pursue the victory and solve the last problem.
He looked into her eyes and said, "I can't hide it from you anymore. In fact, I..."
The black line seems to be far away in the sky, but it will not take too long to reach the mausoleum. The beast tide will bring death, and the time left for them in this world is already very little. At the last moment of life, a sudden heartbeat is a very sad thing, but also a very lucky thing. He was going to tell her that he was Chen Changsheng.
He believes that his name is known by the whole continent, even the Xiuling clan members who are far away in the demon realm should know it.
Xu Yourong didn't know that he was going to reveal her real name, she thought he was a disciple of the Snow Mountain Sect, named Xu Sheng. Seeing him hesitant to speak and slightly nervous, she also became nervous.
She thought he was going to confess.
Subconsciously, she didn't want to hear it, and she was mentally prepared to refuse if he really said it.
It's just... She didn't want to refuse. If he says he likes him, what should he do? Her thoughts were a little confused, and then she felt that she was inexplicable. Why do you think about these small things of love when you are dying? Then, these inexplicable thoughts suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving only peace.
There are many reasons and purposes for cultivating Taoism, some are for strength, some are for exploring more unknowns and seeking spiritual peace, but most of them are for the sake of life and death. In order not to be afraid of life and death, and then get rid of life and death. why? Because there is great fear between life and death, in a hundred years of loneliness, there is eternal sinking. But not long ago, she was just in her youth when she walked between life and death.
Now she is in the calmest moment, the most indifferent to the world of mortals, the most able to understand her own heart, a Taoist heart is spotless, transparent and unparalleled, she looks at Chen Changsheng, waiting for his words to come, with a calm expression, But there was a very faint sense of shame and smile in her eyes, the shame was not annoyed, it was just peaceful joy, because that was what she was looking for and the way she wanted to cultivate.
She is still weak at this time, but her eyes are extremely clear and firm. The responsibilities in the world, the historical significance of the North-South confluence, the fight against the demons, the sincerity of the senior brothers, the hopes of the teachers, and the fetters of the marriage contract, that guy is in her way. The shadow left in my heart, as long as I am with him, will be blown away by a ray of breeze, I can ignore everything, I shouldn't.
Yes, during the journey in the Zhou Garden, she had talked a lot with him, most of which were confined to practice books, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and rarely talked about each other's thoughts, and they didn't know each other very well, but she was very sure that they He is the confidant I want to find, and he is the good friend I need. On the cliffside of the Holy Maiden Peak, she said to Baihe that neither a gentleman nor a real person is an ideal partner who can spend the long years of cultivating together, so now she can be sure that the one she is willing to accompany through the years of cultivating That person has appeared.
Yes, this is the way she seeks and wants to cultivate: one way.
Go forward together under the starry sky, practice Taoism together, until the end of life.
Yes, the beast tide is getting closer, death is getting closer, and life may end soon, but because of this, because of this, she must not deceive her heart.
The sycamore tree transformed from the longbow grew against the wind on the edge of the stone platform, and the green leaves swayed gently in the wind, turning the dim light into softer light, as if someone had lit a candle.
Looking into her eyes, Chen Changsheng vaguely understood, his slightly dry lips parted slightly, ready to speak.
At this moment, a green leaf suddenly fell from the tip and slowly landed on his shoulder, interrupting all this.
The reason why the green leaves of the sycamore tree fell with the wind was not because it was autumn, but because there was a vibration from below the stone platform.
The tremor looked like it came from the stone platform, and it came from the depths of the grassland far below, but in fact, it came from Chen Changsheng's body.
For some reason, his body trembled violently, and his teeth chattered, like a patient suffering from a cold.
Xu Yourong was slightly startled, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Changsheng didn't bother to answer her, he looked at the source of the vibration, quickly stretched out his right hand, and tightly grasped the hilt of the sword.
This violent vibration came from the dagger at his waist.
He gripped the hilt tightly, and the short sword was still vibrating, and it was getting faster and faster, and the frequency was getting higher and higher, so that the extremely simple pattern on the surface of the scabbard turned into a dotted line, which could no longer be seen clearly.
The power in his hand was getting stronger and stronger, but he still couldn't calm down the short sword, he was a little uneasy, not knowing what happened.
This was the first time he encountered such a situation after others gave him this short sword.
His spiritual sense landed on the hilt of the sword, trying to control it again, but failed. His spiritual sense continued to penetrate along the hilt, and when he came to that space, he finally discovered the source of the shock.
Among the medicine bottles, cheat books, and gold jewels floating everywhere, there is a black magic weapon flying at high speed, smashing everything it encounters into powder, as the flying speed increases, the black magic weapon becomes It is getting hotter and brighter, spreading a powerful breath and light to the surroundings, as if it is about to become a sun.
This black magic weapon is the soul hub of Baidi City, and also the core of Zhou Dufu's mausoleum.
At this time, it seemed to perceive something in the outside world, so it suddenly became violent.
If Chen Changsheng's state was higher at this time, and his spiritual consciousness was stronger, or he could try to forcibly suppress the soul hub in the berserk state by virtue of his ownership of the space, but now he does not have this ability, even letting that piece It is impossible for the soul hub to be quieter. If he continues to try, no matter how long it takes, he will not be able to succeed. It is even very possible that the space will be severely damaged.
There is no other way, he can only give up, use his spiritual consciousness, and release this black soul pivot.
With a buzzing sound, the black soul hub appeared on the stone platform, shining brightly, illuminating every vein of the green leaves on the sycamore tree, releasing unimaginable coercion, making Xu Yourong's and Chen Changsheng's breaths change. It was difficult, especially since Xu Yourong's injury was still unhealed, and his face was extremely pale and weak.
Fortunately, Hunshu didn't stay on the stone platform for a long time, nor did he attack the two of them. What is even more fortunate and incomprehensible is that this soul pivot should have sensed what was approaching Zhou Ling to be so violent, but it did not try to break through the green leaves on the plane tree to meet it, but turned into a A beam of light flew towards the depths of the mausoleum.
Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong looked at each other, understanding the meaning in each other's eyes, he carried her on his back, followed the stream of light, and walked into the mausoleum again.
…
…
In the depths of the mausoleum, it is empty and dark. The huge black sarcophagus is quietly displayed in the middle of the hall like a mountain.
The black soul pivot was suspended in the air in front of the black sarcophagus, motionless, emitting a faint light, like a lamp of life.
When Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong returned to the mausoleum, they saw such a scene.
Indistinctly, they also heard some voices, which were very ethereal and faint, as if they came from the abyss or the sea of stars, as if they were the murmur of human voices, or a low-pitched mourning.
Obviously the voice from the deep space was indistinct, the music was not continuous, and the melody and content could not be heard clearly, but they all felt what the music and the voice wanted to tell.
The soul is back.
Chen Changsheng looked at the soul hub in front of the black sarcophagus, and after a moment of silence asked, "Did you hear that?"
Xu Yourong hummed softly, and said, "It's not an auditory hallucination, it should be the residual breath of some kind of formation."
"What did it perceive? I vaguely feel that it has something to do with those beast hordes." Chen Changsheng asked.
Before they discovered this black soul hub, and in the following time, the soul hub had been very quiet, but it suddenly became so violent that it forcibly left Chen Changsheng's short sword and flew to the black coffin, arousing these ancient formations. There must be some specific reason for the residual breath of the Fa. The sudden change of the state of isolated things has always been related to the outside world.
Xu Yourong thought about it quietly, and said: "I have always suspected that the soul tree is in Nan Ke's hands, but now it seems to be true, and she is getting closer and closer to this mausoleum."
Chen Changsheng thought it was strange before, the short sword can isolate the real world from the world in the sheath, but this soul pivot can sense the breath of the outside world inside, what kind of connection is it that can penetrate the space barrier? Hearing her words at this time, and thinking of the four words Qihunbuer mentioned in Daozang Nanhualu, he finally understood the reason.
The lost piece of soul wood was indeed on Nanke's body. She came towards the mausoleum from all directions with a wave of beasts, getting closer and closer. At the previous moment, the soul hub finally sensed it.
Artifacts and souls are inseparable, and a magic weapon like the soul hub that can sit in Baidi City can be called a divine weapon. You can imagine how tense the connection between the weapons and souls is. I don't know how many years later, the soul hub finally felt the return of the soul wood, and naturally there would be a great reaction. It's just why the soul hub didn't leave through the void, but returned to the black sarcophagus instead
"The soul wood is the key." Xu Yourong's gaze fell from the soul pivot to the black sarcophagus, and said, "It's not the key to this mausoleum, but the key to this sarcophagus."
