Chapter 94: Asking for Your Life in the Middle of the Night
Cave Ming Mountain, Ten Thousand Tribulation Cave
Wuxin put his hands behind his back and looked indifferently at a figure on the stone platform in front of him.
There was silence all around, as if time had stopped at this moment.
On the stone platform, there stood a white-haired old woman with a leaning body. At this moment, the old man was on a gold-toothed cane, and a pair of cloudy eyes were staring at Wuxin in front of him.
"How?
The soft, cold voice sounded again, as if it could penetrate the soul, and not a single note was as cold as ice that froze every inch of your skin.
The white-haired woman did not speak, and sighed deeply for a long time.
"I can't imagine that the old woman will live in seclusion for a lifetime, and in the end it will be just a joke. ”
The old man looked up to the sky and sighed, his tone full of sadness.
Wuxin said lightly: "What you are guarding is far beyond your control. In that case, why bother yourself? ”
The white-haired woman was slightly stunned, then shook her head with a wry smile.
"That's it, how can the old man be able to come in person...... It's just that now I have something to ask for, and I hope that the pavilion master can agree to the old woman for the sake of my hard work for so many years. ”
"You say. ”
The white-haired woman pondered for a moment and said slowly: "There is a nephew of mine in the Black Wind Mountain, if the pavilion master can ......."
"You're talking about the black scorpion?"
Without waiting for the white-haired woman to finish, she asked without intention.
The white-haired woman's face was stunned, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in her heart.
"Pavilion Master, you...... Do you know my nephew?"
Wuxin shook his head: "I don't know him." But I can tell you that now he has been ruined. Even if the soul is still alive, I am afraid that it will not be able to enter the realm of reincarnation. ”
"What?"
The white-haired woman's body trembled when she heard this, and she collapsed directly to the ground.
"This ...... How is this possible......"
Wuxin glanced at her, and then slowly stretched out his right hand.
I saw that the white-haired woman's body immediately flashed a pillar of light purple light. The pillar of light simply stopped in the air, and then landed straight in the palm of Wuxin's hand.
Unintentionally withdrew his right hand, turned around and was about to leave.
"Can you tell the old man who killed him?" the white-haired woman propped her hands on the ground, and her white hair was scattered behind her.
Wuxin didn't look back, only said one word to her.
"His fate has been decided, and no one can change it. ”
As soon as the words fell, Wuxin disappeared into the cave.
The white-haired woman stared blankly in the direction of her disappearance. After a long time, a candle tear slowly dripped from the corner of his eye.
Leaving the North Stygian Mountain, the master and apprentice and his party accelerated their pace again. According to the information told to them by the green python, they could reach the ancient city of Xihu after three days of walking westward. Legend has it that there is a Destiny Divine Beast enshrined in the ancient city of Xihu. And it is precisely because of this divine beast that the ancient city will stand for thousands of years.
Ruan Jiu is actually very interested in such legends. I don't know if it's true or not, but it's good to take a look for myself.
On this day, the four of them came to a deserted wooden house, surrounded by a wasteland. Except for a flock of white geese that occasionally flew through the air, there was not a single figure within a radius of several miles.
Sun Wukong glanced at the sun that was about to set not far away, and said to everyone: "Why don't you rest here for the night tonight?" ”
After a day of walking, everyone was a little tired, and they all agreed when they heard Sun Wukong say this.
However, this wooden house is too small, and it has been abandoned for many years, and it is basically uninhabitable.
In desperation, everyone had to sit in a wooden hut all night, even if it was just leaning against the wall, than sleeping in the wild.
After these few months of getting along, Ruan Jiu can basically adapt to the road of learning scriptures. At least she can fully adapt to the difficult accommodation conditions now.
After a brief dinner, everyone went to bed early.
Perhaps it was because he had consumed too much vitality during the previous battle, and Ruan Jiu quickly fell asleep.
I don't know how long it took to be like this, and in a daze, Ruan Jiu suddenly felt that someone was pulling his clothes. At first, she thought she was dreaming. But then a feeling of powerlessness instantly hit the whole body. Ruan Jiu suddenly felt as if he had been pushed down from a height.
When she woke up, the scene in front of her suddenly made her a little dizzy.
This...... Where the hell is this?
In the dim space, under your feet are gray bone paved roads. The surroundings were gray, and I could barely see a little hazy shadow of the trees in front of me.
Just when Ruan Jiu thought that he was dreaming, a sharp voice suddenly came from behind him.
"What's the fuss?
Immediately after, Ruan Jiu felt a hard push on his shoulder. However, when Ruan Jiu turned his head to see who was pushing him, his pupils suddenly contracted.
"You...... You are ......"
Ruan Jiu's eyes widened and he looked at the person behind him in disbelief.
No, to be exact, the other party is no longer human.
"Black impermanence?!"
Yes, the person standing behind Ruan Jiu at this moment, dressed in black, and holding a mourning stick in his hand, actually looks exactly like the legendary ghost Hei Impermanence!
In other words, he is actually really black and impermanent.
Ruan Jiu was stunned in place, and his brain couldn't turn for a while.
"Yeh, can't you be deaf this little ghost? Uncle told you to hurry up, you can't hear?"
But just as the black impermanence mourning stick was about to hit Ruan Jiu's body, a figure walked out from the other side, and at the same time, the white mourning stick in his hand gently picked it up, directly defusing the black impermanence's attack.
"Hit, beat, I said, what are you going to do all day but beat people with your broken stick?"
The one who spoke was Bai Impermanence, who was dressed in white and also held a white mourning stick in his hand.
Hei Wuchang's face turned pale, and he said with an unhappy face: "This little ghost is so hateful, it's just like a fool!"
Bai Wuchang gave him a blank look: "Aren't all new ghosts like this? How many minds do they have? You said that you have been a ghost for many years, why are you still so impatient?"
"I'm impatient? Which eye of yours saw that I'm impatient? I'm so good!"
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to argue with you, let's hurry up. I missed the time, and you and I can't afford to be blamed by Lord Yama. ”
Hei Wuchang snorted coldly, although he was unwilling, he didn't say anything more.
Just as the two of them were about to continue to escort Ruan Jiu forward, Ruan Jiu, who had been listening to them beside them, finally couldn't help it.
I saw her staring at the black and white impermanence in front of her with a gloomy face, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "I'm sorry...... Pls am I ...... now Dead?"
