Chapter 834: Nine-Tailed Lotus Blossom
The moon hangs high.
Under the clear light, on the top of the cliff of the Hollow Mountain, the two figures still maintained a stiff posture, silently staring at each other, as if they were two affectionate lovers, and never took their eyes off.
Before Chu Feng set off, Nangong Yun had said that with her understanding of Su Mengkui, she could only help Chu Feng win the opportunity to speak, but whether he could get Su Mengkui to agree to this matter in the end required Chu Feng's efforts.
Chu Feng was very indifferent, without the slightest nervousness.
After all these years, he has long been tempered by what he has experienced to be extremely calm, and he has long been fearless in the face of such things.
He is not afraid of being seen through his heart, because he has not calculated in the first place, and he is still as honest as ever.
This honesty, whether it is facing enemies or friends, whether it is to kill or save people, rarely changes.
Su Mengkui was indeed a little surprised, because the Chu Feng in her memory was still the same Chu Feng twenty years ago, but she just happened to have a little luck and a little kindness from ordinary people.
She never thought that the somewhat cowardly teenager in the past would come to this point.
Maybe that's what it's called growth.
Su Mengkui finally remembered that people will grow and change, no one will stay at the age of fourteen forever, and no one will remain unchanged for the rest of their lives.
She used to be as kind as that teenager, and she used to persist like today's youth, but in the end, she became disheartened now.
She looked at the people in front of her, and suddenly felt a little familiar, how similar to the old people she had been, all with a persistence, a kindness that was still unwilling to give up in despair.
It's just a pity...... Almost all of them have become a cloud of smoke - in the midst of all this disturbance, those who had held on to that good will with her have all fallen in the end, no one knows, not even bones, not even graves, as if they never existed.
So her heart, which was originally slightly warm, quickly fell down again, and fell into a piece of ice.
She felt that her gaze with the person in front of her was a little boring, as if two children were stubbornly arguing about each other's rights and wrongs.
But in this world, there may not be so much right and wrong.
After all, she sighed, looked away first, and said, "You can go." ”
Chu Feng was silent for a moment, only to know that he still couldn't impress the person in front of him after all, he was not good at words, and he had already done what he could at the moment, so he was just silent for a moment, and then said slightly: "Excuse me, farewell." ”
Chu Feng turned around and walked towards the path he had come.
Without being able to win Su Mengkui's help, Chu Feng didn't know how much disruption there would be to Nangong Yun's original plan - but there was really no way, Su Mengkui's will was too firm, even if it was such a long confrontation, Su Mengkui didn't waver in the slightest - probably she was indeed desperate for this world.
"You can also go find another person. Su Mengkui's indifferent voice suddenly came from behind her.
Chu Feng stopped, turned around, looked at Su Mengkui, did not speak, and quietly waited for Su Mengkui to give the name of that person.
"Qin Mingjing is still alive. Su Mengkui said.
Qin Mingjing is a ghost realm enforcer who has been active all these years, if Su Mengkui is unwilling to assist Nangong Yun, then Qin Mingjing is indeed a good choice.
Chu Feng was silent for a long time before he said, "Sister Yun didn't say anything about Qin Mingjing. ”
Su Mengkui's eyebrows raised slightly, and her expression immediately became a little weird.
Although she didn't have much contact with Nangong Yun, she ...... After all, everyone is still a law enforcer, and they often have some contact with each other, so they also know each other well.
Nangong Yun is not the kind of person who likes to grit her teeth and hold on to it - she is the kind of person who will consider seeking assistance to ensure that she is safe as long as she can't do it, and it may be more than thirty percent - among the nine law enforcers in the world, only Nangong Yun is the most secure.
If she hadn't even considered asking Qin Mingjing for help, it would probably indicate that Qin Mingjing had had some accident, or at least, Qin Mingjing would not and could not be a helper.
Of the fifty-four law enforcers in the Six Realms, only four of them were still active over the years.
Su Mengkui was disheartened and fled to the Trapping Mountain, Lu Hongchen of the fairy world was beaten to death by the wandering spirit, Nangong Yun was in a desperate situation, and Qin Mingjing's whereabouts are unknown.
This seems to mean that the only law enforcer who can rely on is indeed the last one, Su Mengkui.
Su Mengkui felt a little sad in her heart, but she didn't say anything. This is the fate of law enforcers, especially the fate of the last law enforcers of the current generation once every 3,200 years.
The thirteenth generation of law enforcers often means death and sacrifice.
So, thirteen is not a very good number.
Su Mengkui's eyes were even darker, as if she was shrouded in the shadow of death.
Su Mengkui is not afraid of death, she has already seen something more terrible than death.
But Su Mengkui really didn't want to die in vain, because what they were dying for didn't seem to be the order they thought they had before, nor was it the sanction they had been longing for.
They are just sacrificing for something boring, such a sacrifice is really worthless, devaluing something as precious as life as worthless, and it does not make their dreams shine more into reality.
So Su Mengkui just sighed again and said, "Law enforcers will eventually become a thing of the past." ”
This may be the last mourning for the special status of law enforcers.
Chu Feng heard the sorrow, but he still said a little stubbornly: "But at least...... There will be people who will pursue it. ”
Su Mengkui was slightly stunned, and then finally showed a smile, a hint of relief, and more sadness.
"Are you pursuing?" asked Su Mengkui.
Chu Feng pondered for a moment, he originally wanted to nod, but he remembered the dripping blood in his hand and said that this dream was a bit absurd, so he finally didn't be able to nod his head, but said, "I'm longing." ”
"What you desire will not be given to you. Su Mengkui said.
Chu Feng shook his head and said, "But clean things can't be touched by blood-stained hands. ”
Su Mengkui was stunned again, and finally realized that the thinking of the person in front of her was still a little naïve, and a smile flashed between her eyebrows, but she still didn't speak again after all.
Because she felt that there was no need to say any more, because in the consciousness of the person in front of her, that bit of so-called justice could not be tarnished after all, even if it was himself, under his ridiculously naïve standard of justice, it was also sinful.
"Sorry. Chu Feng waved again, turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute. Su Mengkui said.
Chu Feng turned his head, he saw Su Mengkui's calm expression, and knew that Su Mengkui had not changed her mind, so he pursed his lips slightly and said, "Please speak." ”
"I don't want to leave here, but...... It can. Su Mengkui said, raising her hand slightly, a dark purple light had already flown out of Su Mengkui's sleeve, until Chu Feng followed, and then it was silently suspended in the air, slightly undulating.
The purple light wrapped in a piece of purple glass carved out of a utensil, nine arcs are elegant and round, you will be immersed in it at a glance, and the fox's tail that cannot be extricated is intertwined with each other, overlapping and spreading, as if it is a nine-rank lotus.
In the middle of the nine tails, there was a small bulge, a purple tooth, like a dagger, flashing a faint purple light in the dark night.
"This is ......" Chu Feng's expression couldn't help but change, how could he not recognize the instrument in front of him.
This is the ancestral weapon of the Thousand Fox Cave, the ancestor of the founding sect used one of his own teeth and the nine-tailed sacrifice to refine the magic weapon - the nine-tailed lotus flower.
Judging from the luster and momentum, this nine-tailed lotus flower is only afraid that it is the real emperor's weapon, although the years have worn out some of its spirituality, but ...... Once the power is sacrificed, it is still good.
Chu Feng looked at Su Mengkui, a little shocked by Su Mengkui's move, she was actually preparing to hand over this Nine-Tailed Lotus Flower into her own hands!
Su Mengkui's expression was very calm, she knew Nangong Yun's caution and believed in her own judgment, so even if she was disheartened and unwilling to get involved in the dispute between the emperors, Nangong Yun was still her colleague after all, and she couldn't really watch Nangong Yun die.
Perhaps, at least as Chu Feng said, let them struggle a little more.
If they can struggle out of this game, that's a good thing, and if they can't, at least they have struggled too.
"Give it to Nangong Yun, Nangong Yun will naturally use it. After Su Mengkui finished speaking, he stroked his sleeves, and the nine-tailed lotus blossom slowly fell into Chu Feng's hands, dissipating all the light, and becoming like an ordinary jade.
Chu Feng put away the Nine-Tailed Lotus Blossom and thanked Su Mengkui again: "If the matter is well understood, I will come to return the Nine-Tailed Lotus Blossom." ”
"You don't have to, just keep it for yourself. Su Mengkui said lightly, her expression was extremely calm, as if what she had just given out was a worthless sword that could be bought everywhere outside, rather than a weapon of a time-honored emperor.
Even Chu Feng was a little shocked by Su Mengkui's generosity and heroism, such a move...... He was really incomprehensible—maybe Su Mengkui really didn't want to step into the world of monks again, but she didn't want the Nine-Tailed Lotus Flower to disappear with her.
Chu Feng silently waved at Su Mengkui, then turned around and left.
Su Mengkui watched Chu Feng walk down the Trap Mountain, onto the beach, and push his boat into the calm sea, and couldn't help but sigh, holding his hands upside down, looking at the bright moon in the night sky, stunned.
