54 Retrospective

Xu Xiaofei sat on the couch.

He persuaded Lin Yan to rest, and he returned to his residence, locked the door, and asked no one to disturb him.

He was going to grasp that glimmer of light.

His skull began to ache, and the first thing that came to his mind was the boy he had met several times in his dreamsβ€”the boy who had turned him down when they first met, but who had come to him after a long time. He saw a picture of this man lying on the bed, as if he was seriously ill, his eyes fixed on him, his lips twitching, and saying something. It's not an easy thing to say...... When recalling this scene, Xu Xiaofei's heart couldn't help but tighten.

As soon as the picture turned, he saw himself again, sitting in an unimaginably large circle in the dark underground. Thousands of intricate seal spells fell down from above, and countless faint candle flames were implicitly distributed in the magic circle, reflecting his eyes closed and his face with a calm expression.

The headache was getting worse and worse, and Xu Xiaofei continued to think about it with difficulty. Just when he was about to lose it, a clear memory suddenly poured into his heart.

Dream 5

As soon as he fell into his dream, he immediately realized that this was the scene he had just remembered.

The man was sick in bed, and he was at the bedside.

The young man in the past looked like he had grown many years old, his black hair had turned frost white, and there were some vicissitudes in his expression. However, it is good that he is practicing in his body, and there are no wrinkles on his face, and he does not look old.

He still remembered that this person's name was Xue Yin.

It is the reincarnation of the one he loves.

"Don't think nonsense," he was advising Xue Yin, "I have asked the Water Purification Doctor Immortal to heal you, and he will be here soon." ”

"You don't have to...... Comforted me. Xue Yin was smiling bitterly, his voice was already weak, and his breath was trembling, like a candle flame fluttering in the wind and rain, "I know my body, it's useless for anyone to come, no one can save me......"

He interrupted what he was about to say and said in a low voice, "I know, it's all my own doing. The last time I hit the Ascending Immortal Pass, I was unsuccessful, but I was seriously injured and bedridden for more than 60 years, but you have been taking care of me and trying your best to cure me. But I ......."

Xue Yin paused, calmed down a little, and then continued: "But after I recovered from my injury, despite your obstruction, I still wanted to storm the pass, which led to the result of dying and hopeless. Actually, I understand...... What you have advised me, I have always understood in my heart. Since the last time I failed, I have almost no hope in this life on the road to ascending to immortals......"

He could only sigh lightly: "It's not wrong to seek the Tao wholeheartedly, but I blame you for not teaching you well enough." ”

"You don't teach well?" Xue Yin shook his head, raised his voice, and retorted fiercely, "Who dares to say that! How dedicated is your master to me, who in the world can match you?" His voice gradually lowered again: "It's me...... It's all because I don't have enough qualifications, and I was born without a soul and a soul, and I have ascended to immortality, which is wishful thinking......" He closed his eyes, tears suddenly rolling down from under his trembling eyelashes.

Xue Yin looked at him with a pair of teary eyes, and suddenly asked, "After I die, ...... you Will you look for my reincarnation again?" he smiled tearfully, with a bit of sadness, "You're still looking for it, aren't you? Whether it's me or the next life, it's the reincarnation of 'him', and what you're looking for has always been 'him'...... Therefore, even if my death may make you sad for a while, it will not compare to the pain left in your heart by 'his' death. You say that my temperament is very similar to him, and that I have not completely forgotten you, right...... I vaguely remember some of them, but I tried to remember the rest of my life, but I couldn't remember anything at all. I originally thought that if I could ascend to immortality and enjoy immortality, I would be able to stay with you forever, and maybe there was a way to retrieve my previous memories...... "But the matter of ascending to the immortal is not even half a fluke."

"You know, ever since you came to me and started teaching me the Tao, I've been wondering a lot about how I'm going to deal with this, and how I'm going to do it if he' were in the same situation, and how I'm going to be more like him...... I love you, but I'm always afraid, afraid that I will show a different appearance from him, that you will be disappointed in me. ”

Xue Yin's breath had become weaker and weaker, his chest rose and fell sharply, and the piercing red blood stains gushed out from the corners of his mouth, watching him get up and wipe it for himself, he suddenly grabbed his hand with a trembling hand. There was a deep remorse in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, I ...... about this I shouldn't have said that. He would rather die than say this heart and pain. But by the time he was nearing death, he was physically and mentally fragile enough to restrain himself.

Why should you be afraid, you are him......

But he knew that it was too late to explain now, and this demon had become an obsession that had tormented Xue Yin all his life. Can a person who is always in fear practice with a clear mind?

"No, you should say it. He shook Xue Yin's hand back, "I have always seen that you have a very heavy mind, but you have never been able to explain you, and now I finally know that your depression is born because of me, and I am wrong." ”

"It's hard to catch up, and what has been missed can't be made up for after all. ”

He also smiled: "Don't worry, I will never disturb your reincarnation again." ”

"You... Are you really coming to me again......" Xue Yin looked at him stupidly, as if he still had a lot of reluctance. He couldn't help but confide in the pain hidden in his heart, but he never regretted the entanglement in this life.

"Not anymore. His voice was firm, and his determination was never changeable.

He said to Xue Yin, who was reluctant to give up: "Do you remember? When I found you, I calculated a hexagram for you, and I said that you will be rich and safe all your life." This hexagram is not my nonsense, you have a good destiny and outperform most people in the world, and it is only because of me that you have messed everything up. Without me, your life will only be more peaceful and faster. ”

At least when you are dying, you can look back on the past with a peaceful state of mind, unlike now, there are still many unwillingness in your heart that cannot be soothed.

"But...... No matter how peaceful and happy his life is, if it is without you......" Xue Yin still wanted to hold on to his hand, but he gradually lost his strength, and the last brilliance in his eyes was also disappearing, "If there is no you, what is the meaning......

Xu Xiaofei woke up.

It turns out that this is the end of "him" and Xue Yin.

This time, the time for him to faint seemed to be very short, and even the light of day was not bright. He lay on the couch, and his heart was in a state of amazement.

That's not a happy ending.

After lying motionless for a long time, he suddenly sat up slowly, his eyes shining in the darkness, he remembered, finally remembered-

Who he is and how he got here!

In order to complete that "technique", he asked his friends, quietly deduced, and collected immortal materials, which took thousands of years.

In the end, in the formation laid out by his own hands, he sacrificed his own flesh and blood, his soul, the cultivation accumulated for thousands of years, and everything he had ever had.

When the light of the formation is opened, thousands of different kinds of pain are inflicted on the body at the same time, and in just a moment, it is worth the sum of all the pain that has been endured in the past.

His friend Nine Shadows Dragon Jun once said to him: "Why can't you think about it? It's really so difficult, you have to seek death?"

I didn't think about it, and I didn't seek death.

I knew that the dead water was hard to follow, and everything I had done - in excruciating pain, he suddenly opened his eyes and launched a self-detonation from the inside out, and at the last moment of his life, his eyes were still clear: everything I did was to recover the dead water!

The power of silence, silently but furiously, began from him and spread out in all directions. He knew that after his death, this desolate and dead place that he had deliberately sought would reveal a deep pit with a radius of thousands of feet, and everything in it would turn to ashes.

After he ascended to immortality, his name was "Banglan", and from then on, there was no Banglan Immortal Monarch in the world.

Such a powerful spell finally made the eternal river of time emerge for a moment. The last wisp of spiritual power he had left, wrapped in a trace of remnant soul, quickly went up the river river.

It's a millennium ago.

The shattered soul looked down over the river of time, and he saw that in the starry night-deep river, countless lifetracks floated and broken, entangled and connected with each other, and each lifetrack was the life of a certain being. With his senses, he quickly found his own destiny and that of the person he had been missing for a thousand years.

The two lifetracks are intertwined, almost parallel to each other, one of which will break off not far downstream, leaving only the lonely other, stretching into the distance.

Through the immortal pupil, he saw the third lifetrack in the river, which repeatedly echoed and implicated the previous two lifetracks as it kept flowing. This is a vibrant lifeline, with a lot of changes and possibilities, and it contains the power to change everything.

He quickly made up his mind, turned into a streamer, and threw himself into the third life track. At the moment when he threw himself in, this lifeline also divided into two, and derived two branches.

The river of time has stirred up several waves.

Hit by the cold and merciless river, the remnant soul, which had been extremely weakened, peeled off a wisp again, taking away the rest of his memories.

In the world thousands of years ago, in a small town, a teenager suddenly appeared.

The last remaining spiritual power of "Banglan Immortal Monarch" Shen Jinglan condensed into his*.

The face is completely according to Shen Jinglan's appearance, and deep in his body, the characteristics of the "True Martial Body" are also buried. It's a sign, and it's a clue to recognize each other.

He opened his eyes and looked around blankly.

He didn't remember who he was, he didn't remember where he came from, but he had a vague thought in his heart: there was something extremely important waiting for him to do.

"Hey, you're also here to steal the fresh meatloaf from Old Man Yu's house?" The first person he saw was an ordinary-looking young man, looking at him with a smile, this was the beginning of his memory.

They were hiding at the base of the back wall of a certain house, and the young man was holding a large bag of bread wrapped in oiled paper in his hand, and whispered: "You're late, please be early next time!"

When the roar came, it was obvious that the matter had been revealed, and the young man's face changed, and he hurriedly stuffed a few pieces of bread into him, and ran over the wall himself.

He was caught by the old man. I wanted to defend myself, but because of an inexplicable flash, I didn't say anything. Old man Yu punished him to clean the house, and he did so, and when he was leaving, he accidentally saw the old man practicing his sword in the grove next to the house......

Xu Xiaofei stopped remembering.

It turns out that he is Shen Jinglan, and Shen Jinglan is him!

No wonder there is always a wonderful feeling between them, as if they have known each other for a long time and are familiar with each other to the core.

No wonder he can empathize with the pain that Shen Jinglan has endured.

Xu Xiaofei thought about it, so it seems that if you want to cure Shen Jinglan's illness, the answer lies in herself. He must have brought it back from a thousand years later.

What kind of solution was that? He couldn't figure it out for a moment.

However, it seems that the more times he sees Shen Jinglan, the more it can arouse his memory. Maybe go and talk to Shen Jinglan again, and you can remember.

He immediately got up and went out and went to Shen Jinglan's residence.

The residence of the Heavenly Absolute Sect Leader was not particularly grandiose. Several courtyards are clear and quiet, and there is not even anyone guarding them.

Of course, it is by no means unguarded, there must be a secret guard quietly monitoring his movements.

Shen Jinglan has already retreated, how can I meet him?

Xu Xiaofei could sense that Shen Jinglan was not far from him.

"What are you looking for here?" It didn't take long for Lin Yan to appear in front of him.

The look of doubt in his eyes.

Whoever wandered near the Master's residence for no reason, even if he was still resting, would come and inquire in person.

Seeing him again, Xu Xiaofei's heart suddenly swelled with an indescribable emotion and gratitude.

He's still alive, and it's still too late!

This is not an extravagant hope, not a delusion that arises in the heart of a thousand tossing and turning, but a real reality in front of us.

Heaven doesn't treat him badly.

He couldn't help laughing, and his eyes were blurred with water vapor.

Xu Xiaofei said with a smile: "You came just in time, I have something urgent to see the sect leader." ”

Lin Yan was puzzled at first, and then looked at him deeply: "The sect leader never saw any guests when he was in retreat, not even me. ”

"It's okay, he'll meet me, I have a very urgent matter. Xu Xiaofei said, "It's good news, I'll tell you after seeing him." ”

Wait for him to remember how to treat Shen Jinglan, and then tell Xiao Yan.

Lin Yan was silent for a moment, flicked his fingertips, and sent him a piece of information into light, which was the way to go to the underground secret room.

Xu Xiaofei urged the spell, and he found that there was a huge force that resisted him in the air.

Shen Jinglan refused to see him.

After saying a few words, the force quietly retreated, and when he reappeared, he was already in the secret room.

He saw Shen Jinglan's current appearance.

also immediately felt the severe pain that Shen Jinglan was suffering.

No wonder he wouldn't see anyone. The continuous thunder and lightning bombarded him, and there was no skin around him that did not open the flesh, even the muscles and bones were broken, and the blood flowed like a waterfall, merging into a shocking lake of blood under his body.

A person is still alive in such a tragic state.

There is so much blood flowing out of a person's body......

This is simply not tempering, but torture. His mind was also in a trance, and I am afraid that whoever comes, it will be difficult to talk to him.

But Xu Xiaofei is different.

Their spirits are already linked together, and there is no need to resort to words, and when his thoughts move, he can detect them. He told Shen Jinglan everything he remembered.

I see......

It turns out that you are me, and there is no barrier between you and me.

His eyes were closed, and Shen Jinglan, who was in deep pain, although his body was still unable to move, his consciousness had already responded to him with a sigh.

Together, they wondered, where would he have hidden the clues?

The answer is actually very clear, since from a thousand years later, nothing can be brought, only ......

Xu Xiaofei suddenly stretched out his left arm, scooped up the sleeves of his robe, and exposed his forearm.

Pinch the tip with your right hand and connect the dots on your forearm.

A faint white light emanated, illuminating the dim underground, as well as his eyes.

He saw a topographical map, along with a few lines of annotations, glowing white, floating on his arm. 166 Reading Network
