353. Chapter 350: The Demon Heart? Demons?
Who is Dongfang Fan? Where did it come from? Where do you want to go? What kind of mission does it have on its shoulders?
If it was Dongfang Fan in the past, he would not have considered these issues at all, all he wanted was to live for his own freedom; However, as more and more people around him, more and more detailed things he knew, and more and more people and things to worry about, he always thought that he had abandoned the past and just held on to the freedom of the present.

However, Dongfang Fan, a person who has reached the point of obsessiveness with self-obsession, will naturally have doubts about his own existence when he learns that he is a clone of someone else, and then sprouts many ideas and questions; In the past few years, Dongfang Fan has been making himself change, making himself less attached to himself, and letting himself be beyond the scope of his heart, because only in this way can he concentrate on the current things without thinking about the meaning of his existence.
Life is endless, passed down from generation to generation, but Dongfang Fan has no source to follow, and the meaning of Sun Monkey jumping out of the stone is not much different.
"I'm a living being cloned from an otherworldly gene...... Now the world has forgotten my existence...... Truly speaking, I'm not an earthling...... If this fact had been known early on...... Maybe I'll resign myself to what I should do to stay in the lab as a clone for the rest of my life......"
"I opened the door of the two worlds in my own way and practiced the method of salvation, isn't it my own willful will? Am I wrong? Am I troubled? Obviously, he doesn't even know the meaning of his existence, so how can he talk about saving the world? β
Dongfang Fan's heart was shaken, he thought that as long as he suppressed the doubts in his heart, he could stay away from confusion, but he didn't know that escaping could not untie the knot in his heart after all, and in the end he would only pile up the doubts in his heart into a mountain, and when these doubts broke out, it formed an irresistible magic barrier - at this moment, half of Dongfang Fan's feet had already stepped into the magic land!
"What a strong demonic nature, I'm really getting more and more curious about you...... What kind of past does it take to have such a strong demon? The Ice Stranger showed a look of surprise for the first time, and immediately smiled, closing the thumb and middle finger of his left hand, secretly controlling the blade of the Soul Conjuring Sword in Dongfang Fan's hand, and a trace of blood-colored mist wrapped around Dongfang Fan's arm, blending into it little by little......
β¦β¦
The three ninth-order altars were arranged in a zigzag, with a child of five or six years old, a young man in his early twenties, and an old man with gray hair standing on top of each other.
Among them, the young man opened his eyes, and a pair of blood-colored eyes looked at the darkness and strangeness around him with endless confusion.
"Where is this? Why am I here? I...... Who am I? β
At the same time as the young man was questioning, the white-haired old man opened his eyes, which were also a pair of blood-colored eyes, but there was not the slightest confusion in his eyes, but instead revealed an indifference, calmness, and indifference.
"It's the beginning and the end of it all...... Destiny is here...... You are you, and you are not just you. β
The young man muttered what the old man said, as if he understood and seemed to be puzzled, just like the feeling in his heart at this time: it seemed to be full of something, and it seemed to be empty......
"Why am I not just me? What else am I? Who are you? The young man asked again.
At this moment, the child's eyes opened, and they were still red and dripping blood.
"You are you, you are me, you are him, people have you and me, and everyone else is you and me."
The young man does not understand, and what the old man and the child say seems to be similar, but there are subtle differences in the fundamentals, and his own heart is confused in addition to confusion.
The old man: "Heaven is benevolent, and good and evil are reincarnated; Heaven is unkind, and people are dogs. β
Child: "The Buddha says: color is emptiness, emptiness is color; The emptiness is unbounded, and the mind and body are peaceful, which is called Zen. β
Youth: "Why can't I understand what you're saying?" β
Old man: "You have a devil's heart, you are born against the Tao, and you go against the sky." β
Child: "You have demons in your heart, and demons are born in your heart, and evil is born in your heart." β
Youth: "Demon? What is a demon? What is the Tao? What is a Buddha? β
Old man: "The devil is also the way, and the way is also the devil." β
Child: "The devil is also the Buddha, and the Buddha is also the devil." β
The young man was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't understand, if the demon doesn't understand the way of heaven and the Buddha, why is it the way of heaven and the Buddha?" β
The old man: "Dao heart, demon heart, Buddha heart, one heart is different." β
Child: "Truth, Magic, and Buddha are all of the same origin." β
The young man began to feel a headache, his feet were unstable, he slowly sat down cross-legged, he had a headache, and everything in the past of "Dongfang Fan" kept coming to mind.
"Who are you?" The old man asked.
"I'm Dongfang Fan." Dongfang Fan replied.
"Are you a human or a demon?" The child asked.
"I have been living against the way of heaven for the sake of demons; My mind lives according to the principles of Zen, and I am a human being...... Therefore, people are demons, not humans and not demons. Dongfang Fan's mind began to sober up, and the memory experience of the two lives made him see some things lightly and clearly.
"What is the Heavenly Dao?" The old man drank sullenly and questioned Dongfang Fan.
"Ruthlessness is the sky, desirelessness is the way, ruthlessness and desirelessness is the way of heaven."
"What is Zen?" The child stroked his palms and smiled, and asked again.
"Selflessness is Zen, non-phase is reason, selflessness and non-appearance is Zen principle."
"Ruthlessness and desirelessness are the urgent needs of the devil; Selflessness and aspectlessness are the urgent needs of people - the supreme and the supreme, selfless and ruthless. β
At this moment, Dongfang Fan's heart is clear, and the two statues of me (child) in the past and me (the old man) in the future are integrated into the ontology, restoring Dongfang Fan's original mental state.
After just a few questions and answers, Dongfang Fan re-understood himself, and after facing the essence of his own existence, he chose to accept the facts, and then ......
"Poof!"
In reality, Dongfang Fan suddenly opened his eyes and spit out a mouthful of scarlet, instantly black and white, and his hair was like snow, reflecting the skin on his body and the scarlet in his eyes, which looked different and eye-catching.
The spirit in his hand is still there, but the ice ghost in front of him is nowhere to be seen, Dongfang Fan chooses to abandon his sword realm based on the sword demon in the test of the heart demon - re-enlighten the sword!
That mouthful of scarlet was caused by the internal injury of the self-destruction of the foundation of the sword, at this time, Dongfang Fan no longer had a heart demon, nor did he have a sword demon sword theory, even if he had the most complete sword law in the world, he could only start from the sword realm again.
"The strange ghost is nowhere to be seen...... He didn't kill me while I was confronted with demons...... Could it be! Dongfang Fan's heart was shocked, and the space circle appeared from under his feet, and his figure disappeared from the ruins in an instant.
In the Ice and Snow King City, in Villa No. 1009 of Hakodate Restaurant, Dongfang Fan, who had returned, gathered all the people involved, including the Yamato brothers.
"I didn't expect the imperial capital to be brought up by Mr. Dongfang over the years, originally I was thinking that if I can bring up an imperial capital in a situation like Dongying Island, it must not be an ordinary person, but now that I think about it, there are indeed few people who can do such a situation today." Yamato Ryuichi exclaimed, Dongfang Fan's return is a great thing for the Ice and Snow King City.
"Brother Long is serious, basically, I'm just adding fuel to the fire...... But I am ashamed that I have not told you anything about me in the past few years. Dongfang Fan apologized, and the only people who knew about it were Dongfang Biluo, Jiang Minai and Ma Fan.
The Yamato brothers didn't care about this, in fact, over the years, they had only thought of the possibility that Dongfang Fan was not dead, but they never said it, they believed that if Dongfang Fan did not die and did not show up, then there must be a reason.
Just a month after Dongfang Fan's return, four of the original seven nobles returned to the Ice and Snow King City to take refuge: they all went to the imperial capital, hoping to seek higher status and rights, but it turned out that the overall strength of the imperial capital was far inferior to the Ice and Snow King City, and the local nobles of the imperial capital were very resistant to them, and in just half a month, three of the seven nobles became slaves because they inexplicably violated the laws and regulations of the imperial capital.
After the remaining four nobles made up their minds, they agreed to escape from the imperial capital, hoping to return to the Ice and Snow King City, at least in the royal city, they could still gain the respect they deserved.
However, the Ice King City was no longer the same city they had left......
Dongfang Fan's return is a kind of hope and reform for the Ice and Snow King City, and the return of the four nobles is not embarrassed, and even retains their right to participate in important meetings, in the next year, Dongfang Fan and Dongfang Biluo worked together, Dongfang Fan gradually discovered: Dongfang Biluo has been quite improved in administration, and there is a faint spirit of the superior, and the unsmiling expression is no longer the original Dongfang Biluo, this year, the two exchanged words not even more than ten sentences.
This year, all the things that should be dealt with have been dealt with, and the future Ice and Snow King City will be enough to resist any crisis even if there is no Dongfang Fan in charge, and he knows that the time to leave has come.
On this day, in the name of Dongfang Fanyi Ice and Snow Queen Dongfang Biluo, all the high-level personnel gathered in the conference room, and put forward a clear idea at the beginning.
"It's been seven years, from Yamato City to Ice and Snow King City, I believe that all those who have witnessed the growth of this city can't help but sigh, but at the end of the song, everyone is gone, and there is no feast in the world - now, it's time to say goodbye."
Dongfang Fan glanced at the forty-odd high-level figures present, all of them were heroes who had thrown their heads and spilled their blood at the forefront, in the past year, he had assigned the boundaries of the royal city to these people to manage, at this time, the management system of the entire royal city had been quite perfect.
"Tonight, I will leave the royal city, and from now on return the power that originally belonged to you, whether the royal city will be subordinated to the imperial capital in the future, or maintain self-reliance, I will no longer care, I will not take away a single grass, tree, soldier and soldier of the royal city."
After saying the purpose, Dongfang Fan immediately assigned various matters, although many people wanted to keep him, but they were refused.
After the meeting, Dongfang Fan took Dongfang Biluo to the city wall of Hakodate Port and looked out at the sea.
"Biluo, you have changed a lot over the years, and such changes are a good thing for you...... In the royal city, your presence is a symbol of supreme authority...... I don't want to force a change in anyone's fate, so ...... If you are willing to stay and continue to be king, I will support you. β
Dongfang Fan's words fell into Dongfang Biluo's ears, and her expression did not change in any way......
"People always change...... During the three years of your absence, the words of your heart were not spoken to anyone...... I waited for three years, and I held it back for three years...... I'm going crazy...... Later, I realized that as long as you close the door of your heart, you won't think about it too much......"
"In the year you've been back...... I've always wanted to get myself back to my old self...... However, I can't do ......"
Dongfang Biluo was dressed in a royal robe, turned around and walked away, and finally stayed: "At eight o'clock in the evening, wait for me at the top of Hakodate Mountain." β
β¦β¦
At eight o'clock in the evening of the same day, Dongfang Fan went up to the top of Hakodate Mountain alone, and looked at the scenery at the foot of the mountain, and fell into a deep thought: Did he do something wrong?
At this moment, there was a movement behind him, and from the characteristics of the footsteps, it was Dongfang Biluo.
Dongfang Fan turned around and looked, and that glance amazed time: the heavy royal robe had been removed, and he was wearing a light white dress, and the innocent smile on his face had reproduced the innocence of the pastβthe heavy heart let go of the weight that should not have been borne by her, and the responsibility that should not have been borne by her.
"Master, I've kept you waiting~!" Dongfang Biluo trotted forward, stood in front of Dongfang Fan, and smiled playfully.
"It's worth the wait." Dongfang Fan also smiled.
"Do you remember when you first arrived, Xiaoling told us about Mt. Hakodate? At that time, I thought, "It would be nice if I could see that kind of night scene with my master...... After the old man left, I stood in this position many times and looked at the same night view, but ...... The view was beautiful, but I knew it wasn't what I wanted to see...... It's okay now~ You can trick the old man into coming over to see this scenery together before leaving, Biluo is satisfied~! β
At this moment, she was just a woman who got her wish, not the king who ruled the royal city.
Dongfang Fan looked at Dongfang Biluo's side face full of joy, and his heart was moved, at this time, he knew that he was wrong: the person in front of him had never changed......
(At the end of this volume, the next step is the climactic plot of returning to the Tianyue Dynasty!) Stay tuned!! οΌ
