Time flies, and half a moon has passed.

Huo Yue'er has been very leisurely these days, occasionally hunting, fishing, releasing the fire leopard to dissipate her gas, and watching the scene of the fire leopard chasing the little butterfly is also very happy.

Huo Yue'er was very irritable when she cultivated in the sect at the beginning, even if it was combat training, those senior brothers and sisters in the sect let themselves go, and there was no sense of accomplishment in winning, so she proposed to her father to go out for exercise.

Huo Yan, the sect leader of the Leopard Pattern Sect, also thought that Huo Yue'er needed to go out to exercise, otherwise the princess would be sick in the sect, so he readily agreed, and privately arranged two spiritual realm masters as bodyguards, preparing to set off together early the next morning.

What he didn't expect, Huo Yue'er didn't want her father to send someone to follow her all the time, to tell her heart, her experience of going out to practice this time was fake, and going out to play was the real idea, if there were two spiritual realm masters following, how could she have fun?

So Huo Yue'er ran out by herself that night, and then provoked the people of the City Lord's Mansion, and finally the current scene.

Huo Yue'er was happily chasing the fire-patterned leopard in the bushes at this time, and now that she was active by nature, she was liberated, and she couldn't wait to use all her energy at once.

After so much time, those spirit beasts that were scared away have slowly returned, and the danger of this forest has also increased, but now that Taiyue has almost recovered, there is no problem in wanting to protect himself.

The reason why they have been waiting here without leaving is precisely because Furukawa has not returned.

。。。

A few days later, one sunny morning, Huo Yue'er was eating her freshly roasted rabbit with a disgusted face.

"It's hard to eat, but in order not to suffer the sin of starvation, you have to eat it. Huo Yue'er was ruthless, closed her eyes, and bit down with a big gulp.

Tai Yue also looked at her helplessly, after getting along with each other these days, he found that Huo Yue'er was a very kind and friendly person, but she was too simple and easy to suffer.

Suddenly, Taiyue's expression changed, and he said with a look of surprise: "It's here, it's finally here!"

Huo Yue'er was holding a large piece of meat in her mouth, and her speech was slurred, and she glanced up at Taiyue: "Who is here?"

"Young master!"

As soon as the words fell, the space in front of them seemed to have been torn open, emitting a demonic red light, and a thin figure slowly appeared.

It was Furukawa.

At this time, Furukawa has recovered as before, his face is radiant, and his momentum has also improved a lot, and he thinks that he has broken through again.

As soon as Furukawa appeared, Taiyue greeted him excitedly, hugged Furukawa, and said, "Young master, are you okay?" ”

Furukawa felt a little uncomfortable being hugged so hard by Taiyue, but he still said: "I'm fine, Cangyue senior suppressed my demonic energy, and just told me not to be emotional in the future, otherwise if I come a few more times, I will be completely demonized and cannot be saved." But you, how do you feel?"

"Hehe, young master, I'm almost fine. ”

The two hugged and exchanged pleasantries for a while, and when they were not as excited as before, they took their hands off each other. At this time, Huo Yue'er's petite head squeezed into the middle of the two: "Gu Chuan, you're okay, but you're in a hurry, and people have been worried about you." His hands were compared to Doudou, with a shy look.

Furukawa flicked his fingers lightly on her smooth and white forehead, and said angrily: "Go away, what the hell are you thinking about?" ”

Huo Yue'er pursed her mouth: "What are you beating me for, I'm really worried about you, I don't have any friends in the wilderness here, only you, the big monkey and my Yan'er, you also rescued me." After speaking, he lowered his head gently, as if he had been greatly wronged, and he faintly felt like crying.

Gu Chuan obviously didn't eat this, and said angrily: "You still know that I saved you, and you repay me like this?" The implication of Gu Chuan's words was that Huo Yue'er didn't listen to the greeting and took him to this prison island, and then these things happened.

Huo Yue'er still didn't look up, her petite body trembled slightly, and there was a faint sobbing sound.

Furukawa and Taiyue glanced at each other, both a little confused, a rough man like them who puts life and death aside doesn't understand the girl's mind at all, and thinks that Huo Yue'er's acting skills are so exquisite.

Furukawa stretched out his hand and patted Huo Yue'er's shoulder: "Are you so poor in your heart?"

Huo Yue'er raised her head and pursed her mouth, but Chu Chu's pitiful big eyes were covered with a layer of water.

Furukawa suddenly looked a little flustered, and he didn't know where to put his hands, so he hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that, I meant... ”

Furukawa hasn't dealt with girls much until now, and even the only bitter crush is buried in the germ.

"Okay, don't cry, I don't blame you, let's find a way sooner. Furukawa didn't know how to comfort him, so he forcibly interrupted viciously.

The girl was also stunned when she heard this, as if she was frightened by Furukawa, and her crying stopped abruptly.

Furukawa didn't care about her anymore, took Taiyue back from the spirit pattern, and left directly.

。。。

Facing the bright sun and gentle breeze, Furukawa and Huo Yue'er were in a much better mood, Huo Yue'er had long forgotten her previous unhappiness and had been talking to Furukawa, but this kind of speech was only one-sided, Furukawa didn't pay attention to her most of the time, and only occasionally replied to her a few words. Huo Yue'er was not annoyed, and kept talking along the way.

Tai Yue's voice came: "Young Master, you have made a lot of progress this time. ”

"Well, just like you, the fourth-order realm can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. ”

"It seems that your strength has greatly improved, young master, but there is one thing you said wrong, you and I are still at different levels. ”

"Oh? Gu Chuan hadn't paid attention before, but when he heard Tai Yue say this, he split his mind and went to the spirit pattern to probe, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart: "You have reached the fifth order of the realm, so fast?"

"Isn't it, young master, isn't it possible that you are the only one who is allowed to be blessed by misfortune? ”

"I didn't expect it, we're rising pretty fast, and it doesn't seem to be long before we can help you fulfill your long-cherished wish. Furukawa returned in high spirits.

Tai Yue's tone became serious: "Young master, you must not think so, we are just at the beginning, we have already died for a lifetime, and the further we go, the more difficult it is to be promoted, not to mention that when I was at my peak, I was so powerful, and I was still imprisoned in purgatory, you have to be more careful along the way." ”

"I know, how did I get injured once and become a mother-in-law. The corners of Furukawa's mouth slowly raised, and his slightly immature face looked radiant in the sun.

"Furukawa, look, there's someone in front!" Huo Yue'er jumped up excitedly, and hurriedly pulled Furukawa's sleeve, wanting to run over there.

Sure enough, there were a few black dots in front of me that were slowly moving, and I felt that I was still carrying a lot of things on my body, and I was struggling to walk.

Gu Chuan pulled Huo Yue'er back: "What do you want to do?"

"I'm going to ask them for information. Huo Yue'er said innocently, her eyes widened at the moment, and Furukawa's face was reflected in her clear eyes, which reminded Furukawa of the lake in winter, clean without a trace of impurities.

Furukawa shook his head and thought to himself, "What have I been thinking about all day, how did I think about it?" But there was no ambiguity on his lips: "Huo Yue'er, you listen to me, don't take things for granted, don't do it like this, don't go anywhere this time, just follow me all the time, and don't talk nonsense." Furukawa was surprisingly not angry this time, and even said this paragraph patiently, I don't know if he was affected by the association just now.

Huo Yue'er nodded, after what happened before, Huo Yue'er trusted Gu Chuan very much.

As the distance narrowed, the black dots finally showed their original shape, they were a few young adults, probably the appearance of the first or second order of the realm, carrying a huge bag behind them, bulging, as if stuffed with heavy objects.

Although several men were young and middle-aged, they looked weak and covered with bruises, and they were moving forward with difficulty, little by little.

Gu Chuan pulled Huo Yue'er and whispered, "I'll see the opportunity later." ”

He walked forward and said to one of the men, "This big brother, dare to ask what to call him?"

The man didn't look back, as if there was no such person as Furukawa.

Furukawa was not discouraged, after all, there are more people with strange tempers in this world, and continued: "This is my sister, I came out to cultivate with her, and I strayed here, and I want to inquire about how to leave." With that, he also took out a gold ingot from the empty ant and shook it from the previous Elemental Rat Patriarch. The man remained unmoved.

Furukawa found a few men to ask like this, and they all regarded Furukawa as air, without even a trace of change in expression, like puppets manipulated by someone.

Just when Furukawa was full of doubts, a hand patted him lightly on the shoulder. When Gu Chuan turned around, he was startled, and Huo Yue'er jumped even more frightened.

The person who photographed him was an old man, with a gray beard and ragged clothes, and what scared Furukawa was his face, skinny, and the muscles of his eyes and cheeks were deeply sunken, like a skeleton wearing only a human skin, and what was even more shocking was that he was also carrying a large bag, full of it, as if it could crush him at any time.

However, Furukawa is also a person who has entered the Lingmen Purgatory and walked a few times on the threshold of life and death, and his mental quality is okay, so he forcibly suppressed the shock and fear in his heart: "May I ask what is wrong with you?"

"You're new here. The old man said weakly.

Furukawa had already thought of a good way to say it, and brought up the lines that he had said several times before: "Our brother and sister first came here, and they are... ”

Before Furukawa could finish speaking, the old man waved his hand and interrupted: "It doesn't matter what you do, the important thing is to leave here immediately if you want to live." ”

Furukawa also smiled bitterly, thinking: If I could leave, I would have left a long time ago, and it would be your turn. But he continued: "Then may I ask my senior, how do we get out of here?"

"I don't know. The old man shook his head decisively.

Furukawa's heart was 10,000 that ran by: "Then what do you know?"

"All I know is that if you don't leave, you're going to die here, they're coming. ”

"Oh? ”

"Hey, I'll tell you about it, today's young people are really newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers. ”

"What newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, I want to leave too, if you tell me how to leave, I won't look back and leave." Furukawa scolded.

"That's right," the old man said, "This is the second layer of the Vajra Realm, called the Soul Devouring Layer. ”

"Wait, Vajra Realm?" Furukawa interrupted the old man, expressing his doubts.

"It looks like you're coming from outside. Let me tell you this, the Vajra Realm is a world completely independent of the outside world, separated by spatial barriers, and has three levels. Each layer is a completely different world, and our layer is the Soul Eater. And the level you are on when you come in depends on where you came in, it should be the level of space you pass through and the soul eater layer. ”

"Oh, it turns out that the invisible barrier is called the spatial barrier. Furukawa nodded thoughtfully.

The old man continued, "There is a native race in the Soul Eater Layer, called the Cannibals. ”

"Cannibal?" Furukawa frowned when he heard the name, after all, this race was a little disgusting to hear the name.

"Yes, this race looks exactly the same as humans but can't sign a contract with spirit beasts, because they belong to a kind of spirit beasts, the biggest feature of this race is cannibalism, but this is not simply cannibalism, but slowly sucking away the soul of human beings, making people become thoughtless and completely numb, this is a long process, in order to use it effectively, before the human soul is completely sucked away, it will also be forced to be a coolie, that is, a slave. ”

"Slave?" This is not a good word for Furukawa, and the abolition of slaves has long been banned in Tianxiao City.

"So the people I just met ... Furukawa asked.

"That's right, they were captured by cannibals, and more than half of their souls have already been lost, and they have no emotions, no thoughts, and they are already a walking corpse. And all they did was the instinct that was engraved in their bodies after countless beatings. The old man's expression was pained, as if he remembered some unbearable past.

"Oh, in that case, how can you still communicate with me normally, senior?" Furukawa asked curiously.

"Because though they have sucked my essence and blood, I have not lost my soul. ”

"Why?"

"Because I still have something to worry about. The old man turned his head to look into the distance, his eyes crossed the mountain peaks, as if he was looking forward to something, and his expression was extremely lonely.

I don't know how many years this old man has been squeezed here, the only thing that supports him to stubbornly stick to his soul is the longing that drifts into the distance, maybe it is his lively child, maybe it is his wife who was once as beautiful as a flower, and is still waiting for it.

Suddenly, the old man suddenly held his head in his hands, and his expression was very painful.

Furukawa hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you, senior?"

"Go away, they are coming. The old man endured great pain, and these words popped out from between his teeth.

"Who?"

"Slave owner!"

Before Furukawa could make a move, a cold cheer came: "No. 69, what are you doing, why don't you move things well, and that kid, what are you doing, why haven't you seen it?"
