Chapter 46: out of trouble

Views:

To her, this past event in Baguio seemed to be an extremely painful pain, which had been deeply buried in her heart all these years. Unexpectedly, at this juncture of life and death, she recalled it again, and her mind was agitated. He was also a little weak, and he was in a coma for a long time.

Zhang Xiaofan looked at the demon girl who was still clutching him tightly, and smiled wryly. Not long ago, he himself was a patient who had walked around the gate of hell. Unexpectedly, at this time, he turned around. Then it was Baguio's turn to get sick. The two fell down one after the other, it was really hard not to die.

After a while, Zhang Xiaofan himself was also drowsy, but he forced himself to sit up straight, just because Bi Yao was lying in his arms at the moment, looking at her haggard and slightly painful face, Zhang Xiaofan He couldn't bear to leave.

It's just that sitting like this is really not an easy task. He sat on the platform, with one foot hanging in the air and the other stepping on the ground, sitting half-reclined, his body was straight, and there was no place to lean on. Not to mention the soreness, especially the place where Baguio was holding him tightly, and her fingers were hard, even after she passed out, the strength did not decrease a little, it really hurt to the marrow.

It's also because Zhang Xiaofan's temper is quite persevering, he gritted his teeth and endured it, if it were someone else, he would have jumped up already.

But even so, the crime he suffered was really not light, Zhang Xiaofan complained in his heart, but in the end, he didn't leave after all, after a long time, the sleepiness also came up, and in this gradually numb pain and soreness, He even dozed off while sitting.

※※※

"ah… "

Zhang Xiaofan stretched his waist, when he woke up, he felt pain all over his body, when he was sighing, he suddenly found himself lying on the platform at some point, and Bi Yao who was by his side disappeared.

Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback, stood up, looked around, there was still no sign of Baguio, the whole cave was empty, not even a sound.

Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt a chill in his heart, like a person suddenly stayed in a grave. He frowned, stood up, and started looking for Baguio without thinking about it.

After looking for the Tianshu stone room and the treasure room, but he didn't see Baguio, Zhang Xiaofan thought for a moment, then walked out, and after a while, he saw it in the stone room dedicated to the two evil gods of the Demon Sect. The figure of Baguio.

In front of the benevolent-looking Madonna of Phantom and the ferocious-faced King of Heaven, Bi Yao knelt on the ground, her shoulders shrugged, and although she tried her best to suppress it, she still let out a low choked sound.

She was crying.

Zhang Xiaofan stayed there, no matter what he imagined, he couldn't predict that the strong and victorious Demon Cult woman would cry secretly in front of this statue. He stood on the ground, at a loss for a while, but finally walked over slowly, hesitantly said: "You, uh, you, why... don't cry!"

Unexpectedly, it was fine if he didn't speak, upon hearing his words, Biguio's originally suppressed sadness broke out suddenly, her voice became louder immediately, she wept loudly, and slowly raised her head, her jade-like cheeks, at this moment Also hung pearly tears.

Zhang Xiaofan was dumbfounded, he himself was only a boy, how could he understand the thoughts of these daughters, he was in a hurry, as if Bi Yao was made to cry by him, he even stammered a little: "You, you don't want, this, this … I, I, no, you, no, I mean I…”

Baguio's teary eyes were dim, seeing Zhang Xiaofan's panic, shook his head, and clenched his teeth, but the sadness was unbearable, the sad tears that he had endured for more than ten years, just today, poured out.

"It was me, I was the one who killed my mother!" The woman who was deeply trapped in the painful past said sadly with a bit of sadness.

Zhang Xiaofan immediately shook his head, looking at her fragile and helpless figure at this moment, he was in a trance, as if seeing the same helpless figure of himself many years ago.

"No," he walked up, and said softly in a low voice: "Your mother is the one who loves you the most. At that time, you were young and didn't understand anything, so how could you harm others?"

Baguio choked up and said, "But, but Dad has always hated me, I know his old man wants me to die, he blames me for killing my mother!"

Zhang Xiaofan whispered: "No, don't think about it, didn't your father blame you? Didn't he come to save you? Did he treat you badly all these years?"

Bi Yao's body trembled, as if her face had also turned pale, Zhang Xiaofan saw from here, her original clear and beautiful face, pear blossoms with rain, and her sad demeanor were actually touching.

It's just that she raised her head, behind the tears, she looked at Zhang Xiaofan's gaze, but Zhang Xiaofan didn't dare to look directly, and turned his eyes away.

after a long time.

"You're fine." She said suddenly, faintly.

Deep in Zhang Xiaofan's heart, he didn't know where, he suddenly jumped, and then he immediately calmed down, smiled and said: "No, it's just that we are about to die together, a few words of comfort to you before dying, it's nothing."

Bi Yao slowly stopped crying, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, sighed softly, and said: "Yes! We are going to die together." Speaking of this, she suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to Zhang Xiaofan: "You and I died here, have you ever regretted it?"

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, countless pictures turned in his mind in an instant, as if at this moment, he returned to Qingyun Mountain and Dazhu Peak.

"Of course I regret it." He said in a low voice.

Baguio's expression darkened immediately when he heard this, and he said, "Hmph, in the Holy Cult, I don't know how many people want to die with me! You are the only one who can't control himself!"

Zhang Xiaofan was furious, but when he glanced at Bi Yao, his anger disappeared suddenly, he just sighed, shook his head and said: "Maybe! But if I can be buried on the Big Bamboo Peak, I will die without complaint. "

Baguio looked gloomy, staring at him, silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Are you doing it for your Senior Sister Linger?"

Zhang Xiaofan jumped up, pointed at her and said in surprise: "You, how do you know?"

Baguio turned her head and said, "You said it when you were seriously ill and talking nonsense a while ago."

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned, and was about to say something to accuse her, but on second thought, he and she were about to die here, not only would he not be able to see his senior sister, even after death, he would not be able to see her as a ghost The view of Dazhufeng is up!

I just don't know, will Senior Sister remember me

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt disheartened, sighed deeply, and turned and walked out with deep sorrow.

Looking at his back, Bi Yao was in a daze.

After a long time, she turned her head slowly, looked at the two god statues, and bowed down: "Holy Mother, may you take pity on the world, protect him and protect him, my lord, I hope you hold the power to open the sky and save the world." …”

Her voice suddenly stopped, and she was lying on the ground, motionless. At that moment, the surroundings seemed to be quiet, but in her mind, it was like a rough sea, and a ray of light flashed in the waves, but It was faintly visible again, and she tried her best to grasp it and think of it.

She raised her head slowly, looked carefully at the statue of King Tiansha Ming on her right, and over and over again, she had a thought in her heart and shouted loudly: "No, no, there is something missing from this statue..."

She watched it over and over again, not daring to breathe, and finally, her eyes fell on the empty right hand of the statue.

She jumped up, couldn't hold back her joy anymore, and shouted loudly: "Sky-opening axe, yes, where did the sky-opening ax go?"

According to the legend of the Demon Cult, the Holy Mother of Youming is the god who nourishes thousands of living beings, while the Ming King of Tiansha is the fierce god who opens the world and handles punishments. This is very different from the ancient giant god Pangu who opened the sky. Legend has it that King Tiansha Ming is holding a "giant ax that opens the sky", so later generations must have the appearance of this giant axe when they statue him.

But the right hand of the statue in front of him is empty. Baguio knew very well that in the Demon Cult, King Tiansha Ming was one of the two great gods, and no one would intentionally disrespect it. The Blood Refining Hall that built this Blood Dropping Cave was also a Demon Cult sect, there must be a reason for this.

Zhang Xiaofan went back to the cave, sat on the platform, silently, thinking of his old friend on the Big Bamboo Peak, suddenly he saw Bi Yao with a happy face, rushed in, saw him sitting there, and said loudly: " If you want to live, come here quickly."

"What?" Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback, but saw Baguio rushing into the treasure room on the right hand side like a gust of wind, he hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't match the desire for life, and followed inside. As soon as she stepped into the stone room, she heard Baguio cheering, and saw her struggling to pick up a huge cast iron ax from a pile of iron garbage. It looked like she was struggling, and it should be quite heavy.

Zhang Xiaofan ran over and helped her hold the giant axe, he really felt that the handle was extremely heavy, even the two of them could not bear it together, he asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Baguio didn't say much to him, and said directly: "If you want to live, help me move this iron ax to the statue."

Zhang Xiaofan took a deep breath and said in surprise: "You, what are you going to do?"

Baguio didn't bother to say much, and dragged the ax to leave, but after walking a few steps, his body became weak and he was panting. Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and sighed, but he still walked over after all, the two of them worked together, and after a lot of effort, they finally dragged the ax to the stone room where the statue was, and then Zhang Xiaofan rolled his eyes, unwilling to hear Baguio said that he actually wanted to put this heavy thing into the hands of the evil god.

Originally, Zhang Xiaofan was suspicious of the boss, but now he heard that he was going to work for the evil god of the Demon Cult, and he immediately lost his temper, but he still couldn't hold back Baguio, seeing her sweating profusely, working hard alone, his heart sank. As soon as she softened, she thought that it would be better to fulfill one of her wishes before she died, so she stepped forward and tried her best to help.

This ax looks huge, but when it is actually carried, the weight is even more unbelievable. Coupled with the fact that the two had no food for a long time, they miraculously completed this seemingly impossible task. After putting the ax on the right hand of King Tiansha Ming, Zhang Xiaofan sat down on the ground, panting, and said: "You, Huhu, you, if you can't find a way out, Huhu, originally we could live for three days, now we only have three hours left."

Baguio was also gasping for breath, but she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes. After a short rest, she walked to the side of the statue and observed carefully for a while, only to see that after the statue of King Ming had added a giant axe, it really It is majestic and imposing. She bowed respectfully to the statue of Tiansha King Ming, and said: "My lord, please forgive me for being rude."

After finishing speaking, she stretched out her hand to grab the huge axe, and shook it tentatively, up and down, but there was no movement. She put the giant ax in by herself, if there was any movement, it would have happened just now, Zhang Xiaofan sat on the ground, watched her strange movements, shook his head.

Baguio frowned, and said in a low voice: "Why is it wrong, the mechanism should be here..."

While speaking, he felt anxious, and his hands gained some strength. When he moved the giant axe, even the right hand holding the statue of King Tiansha Ming also moved a little.

Suddenly, in the stone room, there seemed to be some heavy mechanical sound.

Zhang Xiaofan jumped up, Bi Yao was overjoyed, the two looked at each other, Zhang Xiaofan ran over, together with Bi Yao grabbed the giant axe, and pulled it hard.

I saw that the huge ax was connected to King Tiansha Ming's right hand, and lifted it into the air from a low position. A moment later, there was a deafening roar in the stone room.

The two of them were startled, they only felt the roar in their ears, the pain was unbearable, and they quickly pressed their hands on their ears. After a while, the roaring sound was still loud in my ears, but on the stone wall behind the statue, the huge and hard stone wall was slowly retreating to the two sides, revealing a passage, and the stone steps that went up step by step continued. Up, until the dark place ahead.

At this time, the stone room where the statue was located suddenly shook violently, and stones fell from the top of their heads one after another. The two did not speak, but ran towards the stone steps at the same time as if they were in agreement, and plunged into the darkness.

In fact, eight hundred years ago, when the Blood Dropping Cave was being built by the Demon Sect’s Blood Refining Hall, they had already considered the scenario of being attacked by the enemy in case of decline in the future. When the enemy invades, they will escape this way, and after a while, the bleeding hole will collapse, burying the enemy and countless secrets of the Blood Refining Hall.

Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao ran desperately, only heard loud noises behind them, stones flying horizontally, if they jog a step, they might die here, they really took out the last bit of strength in their bodies, and ran forward.

Before they ran far, there was darkness in front of the two of them. In this narrow and dark secret passage, they did not know how many times they fell and bumped into each other. They could only hear loud noises and boulders flying around, as if the whole building Kongsangshan seemed to be furious and trembling, but finally, with a longing for survival, the two of them saw a ray of light penetrating ahead.

The entrance of this dense cave was originally opened in the middle of Kongsang Mountain, under a cliff in the shade of the mountain, the trees are luxuriant, and it is extremely hidden. No wonder no one has seen it for eight hundred years. Most of the descendants who come to the Blood Refining Hall today do not know it. here.

Zhang Xiaofan and Baguio stumbled out, almost at the moment when they fell to the ground, there was a loud bang, the huge boulder weighed down ten thousand jin, dust flew up, and the entrance of the cave was tightly blocked, from now on, No one can see the secrets in the mountainside anymore.

※※※

Crouching on the ground, Zhang Xiaofan gasped for breath, his fingers tightly grasped the slightly moist green grass on the ground, that kind of feeling of running wildly on the edge of life and death was really breathless.

After a long while, his mood slowly relaxed, he raised his head, looked to the side, and saw Baguio was beside him, there was a little dust on his originally fair face at this moment, as if feeling Zhang Xiaofan's gaze, she also turned looked over.

The joy of being reborn after the catastrophe slowly surfaced on the faces of the two of them. Baguio's lips moved, as if there were water waves flowing in her bright eyes, with crystals in the haze, she let out a slightly choked cheer, a kind of relief after the infinite pressure, she couldn't think of anything else, I just feel that the sky is very blue, the mountains are so high, the breeze is blowing, the mountains are full of emerald green, the green shadows are whirling, and the trees are surging. This world is full of breathtaking beauty.

"We, we survived!" She shouted joyfully, facing the green mountains and blue sky.

Zhang Xiaofan laughed loudly, beside her, watching her let go of her arms, showing the most beautiful smile in the world.

※※※

In the sound of "popping", the flame devoured the firewood, made a crisp sound, and bursts of light smoke rose. Baguio sat beside the fire, watching Zhang Xiaofan use a thick branch to catch a wild rabbit that he had just caught. After tidying up, put it on the fire to roast. As the flames roasted, the rabbit meat gradually turned golden yellow, and the fats and fats also condensed into drops of water and dripped down.

Under the mountains and forests, there is a burst of fragrance and deliciousness, overflowing and wafting. In that cave, she was very hungry, Biguio couldn't help salivating, and swallowed, but seeing that Zhang Xiaofan was not in a hurry, looked at the fire, and habitually stretched his hand to his waist to touch, suddenly his face Startled for a moment, then beamed with joy.

Baguio asked in surprise, "What?"

Zhang Xiaofan happily took out a small bag from his waist, and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, all the dry food was lost, but these things are still there, I didn't pay attention to it a few days ago!"

Bi Yao looked at the small package, and saw Zhang Xiaofan carefully opened the package, revealing several small bottles and jars, curious, picked up some and smelled them, she was stunned, looked at Zhang Xiaofan almost speechless : "This, this is some salt seasoning..."

Zhang Xiaofan smiled all over his face and said: "Yes! I always carry it with me when I go down the mountain, just in case I have to stay in the wild so I can cook some delicious food, I didn't expect it to come in handy today."

Baguio looked at Zhang Xiaofan up and down, was speechless for a while, seeing him carefully sprinkle these spices or salt on the rabbit meat, then slowly turn the branches to roast, the fragrance of the air is getting stronger and stronger thick.

She had never seen such an upright person who actually came out and put seasoning on his body. Judging by his appearance, he was probably more of a cook than a disciple of a decent family.

After a while, Zhang Xiaofan came closer to smell it, and said happily: "Okay, you can eat."

Baguio got impatient waiting a long time ago, she just felt that the fragrance was almost pervasive, penetrated through the pores of her body, after smelling it, her body seemed to float up, much lighter, as for In his mouth, let alone, if he hadn't been careful to hide it, even the sound of his stomach "cuckling" would have been heard by this kid.

Hearing Zhang Xiaofan's kindness, he finally said it was done, there was a golden and fragrant rabbit in front of him, almost drooling, he couldn't help stretching out his hand, but he forgot for a while, and "ah" when he touched it With a cry, he retracted, but was burned.

Zhang Xiaofan smiled and said: "Don't worry!" He took the branch away from the fire, moved it up and down, let the fat flow down, and the temperature on the meat was lower, and then carefully tore off a rabbit's hind leg , handed it to Baguio, and said with a smile, "Eat it!"

Baguio immediately stretched out her hand, took the rabbit meat, and was about to open her mouth, when she suddenly saw Zhang Xiaofan with a gentle smile on her face, looking at herself smiling, the sunlight in the forest shone through the dense leaves, bit by bit. When the time fell on his face, it was so hearty.

For some reason, her face suddenly turned red, she turned her head away from Zhang Xiaofan, and then started to eat.

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't care, he was too hungry, he tore off the other rabbit's leg, and started gnawing on it.

Halfway through eating, he suddenly saw Baguio turn around and look at him, slightly surprised: "What's the matter, by the way, is this meat still delicious?"

There was a faint blush on Baguio's face, and the breeze blowing from the depths of the woods gently lifted her soft long hair and brushed against her fair face.

"It's delicious! Uh..."

Zhang Xiaofan: "What's wrong?"

Baguio: "... I'm done eating."

Her face was gentle and shy, Zhang Xiaofan opened his mouth slightly, he was infatuated.

Bi Yao lowered her head slightly, the two fell silent suddenly, after a while, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly woke up: "Ah!"

Sweat broke out on his head, he stammered, unable to speak: "I, I didn't look at it, no, look at me... Ah! No, ah! Give it to you!"

Saying that he closed his eyes, he passed the rabbit's leg over, but for some reason, he didn't dare to open his eyes.

But for a long time, Baguio didn't seem to move, Zhang Xiaofan mustered up his courage, and slowly opened his eyes, only to see Biguio looked at him, with a half-smile on his face, but his eyes were gentle, there was an indescribable softness, Lowly, with a hint of a smile, he said, "Would you give this to me?"

Zhang Xiaofan was puzzled, he looked into his hands, his face turned red immediately, he felt ashamed, it turned out that what he handed over to Baguio was the half-eaten rabbit leg that he was holding in his right hand, and most of the rabbit meat he was holding in his left hand around.

"No, no, no..." Zhang Xiaofan was in extreme embarrassment, quickly took back the embarrassing rabbit leg, handed over the intact rabbit meat, and muttered: "I am, yes ,I want… "

"I know." Baguio took the rabbit, tore off a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed lightly: "It's delicious, the most delicious thing I've ever eaten in my life is the rabbit you baked now .”

Zhang Xiaofan's heart skipped a beat, and he saw Bi Yao's beautiful face, half smiling, half serious talking, his heart fluttered, he didn't dare to look any more, he bit the half-gnawed rabbit leg with his mouth, buried his head in pain eat.

This rabbit was eaten clean by these two hungry ghosts within a short while. It's really a joy to have a full meal for the first time in many days. Baguio found a mountain stream, and the two washed themselves by the water, feeling a little sleepy.

It was true, the nerves were tense all the time in the belly of the mountain, and I just felt that I was walking on the edge of life and death. When I came out like this, my whole body relaxed and my sleepiness also came up.

Baguio couldn't bear it at first, and fell asleep on a small piece of green lawn beside the stream. Zhang Xiaofan also felt sleepy, and lay down beside her, but felt the sun was warm and gentle on them, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Biguio.

I saw Baguio after grooming, although her hair was still a little messy, but her face was as white as jade when they first met, and her skin was as snowy as a blow, almost breaking. At this moment, she closed her eyes and lay there quietly. The breeze blew, and the tips of her hair moved lightly, emitting a soft radiance under the sun.

Suddenly, Bi Yao was in a deep sleep, as if she saw something, her brows were slightly frowned, her right hand stretched out habitually, grabbed Zhang Xiaofan's shoulder, and leaned against his side, then, on her lips, With a faint smile, he fell asleep peacefully.

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned, but looking at her slightly haggard but still beautiful face, no matter what, he didn't have the courage to take her hand away, he lay there motionless, gradually, his sleepiness also came up, together He closed his eyes, as if he had forgotten about it, and fell asleep peacefully, as if it was nothing more than normal.

The breeze in the forest still blew gently, blowing over the treetops, over the green leaves, over the quietly flowing stream, causing slight ripples, and finally, over the two young people.
