When the picture ends, the boundary between the temple and the small farm yard suddenly disappears.

A small courtyard filled with strange colors appeared in front of Jiang Ning.

At this time, no matter whether he left the boundary or stood above it, the buildings in his field of vision would not change in any way.

The two statues, one large and one small, outside the previous door had disappeared, but on the two broken wooden doors, there were two more portraits of the door gods, one on the left and one on the right.

The one on the left is a child lying on the ground, and the one on the right is an adult in the same posture as the statue.

Only this time, the person on the top of the picture has a lion on the lower body, and the upper body has been replaced by a human.

"Lu Jie!" Jiang Ning walked to the door, and when he saw the villain on the portrait clearly, he whispered to himself.

That's right, the person on the portrait on the left side of the wooden door is the young Lu Jie he just saw in the illusion.

On the other portrait, Jiang Ning has never seen the appearance of the adult man.

He originally thought that the person in the portrait should be the man who died in front of him earlier, but when he looked closely, he found that the appearance of the two people was not the same at all.

It was a man he hadn't seen in the Misty Forest.

After noting down the man's appearance, Jiang Ning tried to remove the two door god pictures from the wooden door, originally just tried casually, but he didn't expect it to be a success for him.

After putting away the door god map, Jiang Ning wanted to push the door and enter to see if Lu Jie was still in the small courtyard at this time.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he pushed the door, it still wouldn't open.

At this moment, Jiang Ning was really a little depressed.

This journey seems to be going very smoothly, but in fact, the triggers of each step are very easy to ignore.

If he hadn't been curious to follow those points of light, he wouldn't have come to the edge of the grave, let alone the dying man, if he hadn't been able to lift the stone in time and let the man lying on the ground die, or if he hadn't saved people too late, or if he hadn't been able to help him take out the glass beads stuck in his throat, then he wouldn't have been able to come here, if he hadn't had blue electric pupils, or if he hadn't noticed the anomaly in the glass beads, and if he hadn't seen the sad story in the birdcage, if he had walked straight over, he wouldn't have noticed the way the farmhouse had changed and the temple, and he hadn't been able to find the line of change, I won't see the scene of the talent in the hospital.

A series of accidental events are actually necessary conditions for finding the young Lu Jie, even if it is a slight mistake, it will waste a lot of his time.

"It seems that we have to be more careful," Jiang Ning said to himself, "If you miss any clues, it will be very troublesome later." ”

After going around the yard a few times, and making sure that nothing else would be gained, he finally decided to leave.

It's not that he didn't want to go into the courtyard, but he couldn't find a way to get in, so he had to put the matter aside for the time being, and when the conditions were ripe, it would not be too late to come back.

Leaving the small courtyard, Jiang Ning returned to the forest.

In this process, the green electric pupil has been maintained in a highly open state, for fear of missing something, and he will have to come back to find it later.

It was only a short period of time backtracking, draining ninety percent of Jiang Ning's time power, at this time, he always felt that his state was a little weak, but the replenishment of time power was a slow work, it didn't take much energy, and he could recover slowly while walking, but the speed of this replenishment was constant, even if he stopped and worked hard to cultivate, the effect would only be slightly better, so there was no need to deliberately stop at all.

When he was in a hurry, Jiang Ning tried not to let his overly active thoughts run too far, because that would distract him, and if there was something hidden in the forest, he would be distracted, and he would probably miss it.

Little did he know that his concentration would immediately save his life.

Defenseless, a log with sharp spikes at both ends flew from a distance behind his back and slammed straight into Jiang Ning's heart.

The speed is not weaker than Jiang Ning's opening of Tasha.

After adding the power of time sequence and the power of cause and effect to the blue electric pupil, coupled with its own ability to peek through space and rules, there are almost few things that cannot be discovered.

But the horizontal log behind him was clearly colliding towards him, but there was no causal fluctuation on it, and even the surrounding air flow did not change.

This is a very unconscionable situation.

If one person wants to kill one person or directly takes action, and the other person understands a little bit of the power of cause and effect, he will definitely be able to perceive that the cause and effect between the two people is getting stronger, and therefore become vigilant.

Even if a piece of wood flew towards him, the cause and effect in it was so great that it was fatal, and Jiang Ning, a man who had mastered the power of cause and effect, should not be unaware of it.

Since it is not perceptible, it means that the cause and effect on this log have been deliberately blocked.

As for why the airflow around the log didn't change when it moved, Jiang Ning couldn't figure it out for a short time.

If it weren't for the beating of the entrance and the warning of the heart lamp, his body would have been pierced by the sharp nail at this time.

As soon as the footstep was wrong, the whole person turned into a wisp of green smoke, and in a flash, he avoided the impact of the log.

With one hit, the log disappeared into the space in a trance and disappeared, Jiang Ning frowned, and his heart was vigilant.

As soon as the log disappeared, Jiang Ning's body immediately jumped up, and a small formation pattern appeared in the void under his feet in an instant, Jiang Ning stepped on the pattern hard, borrowed his strength to rise again, and immediately opened his arms and slowly slid to the other side.

In the next moment, the ground beneath his feet collapsed, revealing countless steel needles and spiral thorns.

These rotating and changing traps are clearly moving all the time, but even with Jiang Ning's powerful perception of Dao and Realm, he can't detect the slightest movement, and if it weren't for the warning of the heart light, Jiang Ning himself wouldn't be able to detect any danger.

If it is in the outside world, under normal circumstances, even if there is no abnormality, as long as Jiang Ning walks to the top of that piece of land, he will definitely be able to detect the emptiness under his feet, but here, except for the heart lamp in the ancestral aperture, almost all the early warning abilities have failed, and you can't play a role.

After dodging dozens of flying needles shot out from the ground one after another, Jiang Ning once again stepped into the air and moved sideways, avoiding the collision wood that had gone and returned, cut off the collision wood with a sword, spun down, and stood calmly on the ground.

Walking out of the hundreds, Jiang Ning encountered five waves of such traps and assassinations one after another, but fortunately, in the birth of the heart lamp and the ancestral aperture, no matter what the power could not blind it, although the danger was full of dangers, Jiang Ning still managed to survive after all.

When the fifth trap in the forest also failed, Jiang Ning saw a big tree that was enough for ten people to hug.

This big tree is the same as the big trees in other places in the forest, but along the way, the thickest big tree Jiang Ning has ever seen is only the kind of two or three people hugging each other, but this one is big.

On top of the big tree, on top of a fallen branch, two hemp ropes were tied, and under the hemp ropes, a swing was hung.

There was a sudden gust of wind in the woods, and the swing swayed slightly with the wind, and behind the swing there was a thatched hut standing against the trunk of a tree.

The grass hut was covered with dust and fallen leaves, and it was clear that no one had been here for a long time.

Jiang Ning walked to the side of the swing, and there were two lines of words neatly lined up on the ground.

"In the future, you don't have to weave wreaths for me. Jiang Ning turned his head, and on the rickety swing, a wreath with petals falling off was still lying quietly on the wooden plank.

Putting away the garland, Jiang Ning walked slowly into the thatched hut.

The hut also had a door, but this time, he only pushed it lightly, and the door opened.

The so-called sparrow, although it is small, is all the organs, and it is probably the scene in front of Jiang Ning's eyes.

With doors and windows, beds, tables, and stoves, it is simply a small home.

Recalling the handwriting on the ground, as well as the shallow strength, with the garland and the content of the message, Jiang Ning felt as if there was a tragic scene of a poor man and his girlfriend being torn apart.

Once upon a time, when he fell from the wind cliff, he also experienced a similar process, but although the bright girl didn't say anything, Jiang Ning knew that she had a secret hidden in her heart, not really aimed at herself.

"Hey, I've been walking for so long, and I haven't had a good rest. Jiang Ning walked over, shook the sheets that had been dusty for a long time, and he didn't dislike being dirty, so he lay down, closed his eyes and began to rest.

This time, he wasn't thinking about anything, or he was really resting.

After entering, he found that the situation here was somewhat similar to that of the Giant Scorpion Palace, although the strength might be weaker than that of the Giant Scorpion Palace World, but even if the cultivation was still there, and if he was not deprived, his physical strength and energy would be slowly lost.

It has been a long time since he entered the black vortex gate to now, Jiang Ning has not rested all the way, and at this moment, his spirit and body are indeed a little tired.

After resting in the hut for about two hours, Jiang Ning felt that his state was almost recovered, so he wanted to come out of the hut, but the door of the hut was blown by the wind and closed, and then no matter how hard Jiang Ning collided and tried, he couldn't open it.

"Cut," Jiang Ning pursed his lips, "Are you locked up inside?"

This kind of behavior of trapping himself inside the hut without any reason, in Jiang Ning's understanding, means that there is something here that must be discovered, or there is something that must be triggered, and he did not do it, and he couldn't meet the conditions for leaving, so he was forcibly trapped here until he found or triggered the conditions for opening the door.

A warm and soft body suddenly stuck to Jiang Ning's back, Jiang Ning was defenseless, and his vigilance was raised to the limit in an instant.

The man wrapped his hands around Jiang Ning's waist, his chin rested on his right shoulder, and a moist stream of heat gently spit on the back of Jiang Ning's neck and ears, making him slightly itchy and even a little throbbing, but the kind of defense in the bottom of his heart did not relax at all.

"I know it's wrong," a soft woman's voice sobbed in Jiang Ning's ear, "I was wrong, don't leave me, okay?"

How can a man with strong blood withstand this temptation, Jiang Ning felt that the beastly desires hidden in his body began to riot.

It's just that he knows too well that there is no one in this room at all, and the "person" who is holding him from behind him, even if he used to be a big living person, but now, he may not be able to be regarded as a "person"!

Jiang Ning used a little strength to grab the woman's hand around his waist, of course, not to rub the oil, but to try to break her hand away.

The result was undoubtedly a failure.

The strength of that woman was surprisingly great, Jiang Ning couldn't break free no matter what, the harder he tried to break free, the tighter the woman held, and in the end, Jiang Ning only felt that his powerful body was a little painful by the woman behind him, he didn't dare to struggle casually anymore, for fear that he would be broken by the woman if he struggled a few more times.

Although he has now mastered the secret technique of blood rebirth, that kind of secret technique always consumes a considerable amount of energy, and Jiang Ning doesn't want to do it casually for himself unless it is absolutely necessary.

"I was wrong, don't leave me, okay?" the woman behind her repeated, and as she spoke, Jiang Ning felt the woman's hand holding her tighter.

He had a strong premonition that if he didn't agree, he would die a miserable death.

Therefore, Jiang Ning rolled his eyes, held the woman's hand quite undisciplinedly, and then gently patted the back of her hand, measured her face, and said with a smile: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, I won't leave you again!"

Sure enough, the woman slowly let go of her hand after hearing this, but still leaned her head against Jiang Ning's back, and her feelings were overflowing.

Jiang Ning turned around cautiously, and after seeing the woman's appearance, he almost didn't greet him with a sword.

With long and smooth black hair, a delicate melon seed face, and a flawless and delicate figure, if you can't bear the facial features, this is definitely the type that any man dreams of.

However, combined with the miserable white face without any blood, and the pair of eyes that were completely pitch black and had no whites at all, Jiang Ning felt as if he had seen a demon in hell.

There is a limit to the fear that ugly things can bring, and people still hate it more.

But if there was a way to destroy something that was so beautiful, it would be something that would be terrifying enough for everyone.

Jiang Ning looked at the face that was both beautiful and terrifying, sad and as if he was smiling, and only felt a chill in the back of his head, but he didn't dare to show it at all.

He forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, turned his body completely, hugged the female ghost in his arms in his reluctant posture, gently and gently slipped down between her hair with the posture he used to coax the poor girl to sleep, and patted the female ghost's back rhythmically and softly with his palm, comforting: "No, no, I won't leave you again!"

Jiang Ning has seen a lot of ghosts, in the early years, it was common to go down the mountain to exorcise ghosts, and later came to this abyss, which is the place where ghosts live, so he naturally saw more.

Even those ghosts who condense their physical bodies, their bodies are cold, because the material they rely on to condense their bodies is Yin and evil qi.

But now that the two are in close contact frequently, Jiang Ning can clearly feel that the temperature above the woman's body is not fake, and her heart seems to be still beating.

If it weren't for the fact that the face that combined beauty and horror in one body could not grow out of a person at all, Jiang Ning really couldn't believe that a ghost could be like this.

"You've been away for so many years and haven't come back, I thought you'd never come back!"

The female ghost closed her eyes comfortably, buried her head in Jiang Ning's arms, and gently beat his chest while sobbing, the meaning of coquettishness was obvious enough.

"I'll take it," Jiang Ning looked at the almost perfect body in his arms, but he didn't have the slightest intention of enjoying it, but said a little depressedly: "Who is this treating me as?"

The identity of the woman is not difficult to guess, the woman who will come to this small hut and die here is the woman who left the words under the swing outside the door.

It's just that since she left at that time, she obviously decided to break up with her lover, but in the end she returned here and died here.

Well, there are only two possibilities.

In the first case, the lover hated her out of love, took her back and killed her in the hut.

The second is that after her lover broke up, her marriage or relationship was not smooth, and she was not happy, so she began to be sad and sad again, and missed the old people, so she returned here, and she couldn't wait for her lover, and committed suicide in the hut in despair.

Judging from the female ghost's attitude towards him, it is obvious that the probability of her being killed by her lover is very low, so the possibility of suicide increases indefinitely.

"Hey, you can't live if you do your own evil," Jiang Ning said in his heart.

He has seen too many women who listened to their parents' words, broke up with their lover and married someone else, and then lived a dull or depressed life for the rest of their lives.

Of course, if the marriage is not supported by the parents, it will not be happy in the end.

Marriage in the world, the ten opposites of true happiness from the heart are often the same, plain, ordinary is the true meaning of life.

How much happiness a person's heart desires, he needs to endure the same amount or even more pain, these are the truths that Jiang Ning gradually realized after coming to the abyss for more than ten years.

The cultivation speed of those who are too forgetful of love, and the final achievement is not bad, that is, they have the benefits of this kind of mentality that is willing to be simple and plain, and does not deliberately pursue happiness and joy.

Of course, this does not mean that the cultivation of sentient beings will fall.

Affection is not noble, and forgetfulness is not shameful, but it is just a matter of different encounters and fates of each person, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior.

Tragedy is often not caused by choice, but by a hesitant heart, unable to firmly adhere to one's choice, and often regretting it.

This is a sentence that Tong Fat often likes to say.
