Chapter 60-3: Smashing the Mirror (Part II)

"Yes, Nightmare Mirror." Duan Zhiyi nodded and talked eloquently, "The origin of this mirror starts with an allusion to the fairy world. Legend has it that the Lingyue real person of the Taixu Temple in the last three days cast the Taixu Mirror to save the world from the suffering of being fascinated by love. The lovesick fairy who is happy with the love affair of the Tianfeng Moon Palace, thinks that lovesickness is uncontrollable and incurable, so he makes a gambling contract with Lingyue Zhenren to see whether the world is willing to be in love or willing to give up love and forget love. She collected the joys, angers, hatreds and other grievances of thousands of people, and cast a bronze mirror, named the Acacia Mirror. After the mirror was cast, the two immortals jointly selected a mortal and gave it to him with the ether illusory mirror and the acacia mirror respectively, to see if the mortal would finally choose to indulge or give up love......"

"And then?" I listened attentively and saw him stop and ask. Duan Zhiyi said with a smile: "The result is that some mortals are willing to give up their feelings, and some are willing to indulge, the two great immortals have fought for hundreds of years, each has lost and won, and in the end there is no winner or loser, and finally decided to let these two mirrors wander into the mortal world, and let time be the final proof......"

"That is, they didn't tell the winners?" I smiled, "Then why, immortal cultivators call it the Nightmare Mirror?" ”

"Because this mirror condenses the joys, angers, hatred and ignorance of too many people, feeding the mirror with blood can evoke people's deepest resentment and demons, aggravate their obsessions, and make them become demons." Duan Zhiyi said.

"The Devil's Way?" I pursed my lips, looked at Duan Zhiyi, smiled disappreccantly, and said lightly, "What is the right way?" What is the Demon Path? Everyone's opinion may be different, if obsession is a demon, the Buddha has the wish to save the suffering and save the suffering, and purify all sentient beings, why not enter the demon? Believers devout to convert, build temples, and offer incense, how can they not fall into demons? Heroes and saints, if they don't have their own obsessive beliefs, how can they achieve fame and spread through the ages, so to speak, the so-called heroes, the so-called saints, are actually believers walking in the demon world. ”

The three of them didn't expect me to say this, and their faces were stunned. "Crooked!" An Yuanxi reacted and rushed out with some anger. I raised my eyebrows, smiled coldly, and didn't refute. Duan Zhiyi came back to his senses, but he was not upset by my words, and said with a slight smile: "What Madame said is very true, both the righteous path and the demon path have obsessions, but the difference between the demon path and the righteous path lies in its persistent belief, whether it can benefit people or poison living beings. It's like this nightmare mirror, Mrs. feeds the mirror with blood, and the person she sees is actually Mrs.'s own inner demon, and the illusion is actually what Mrs. thinks in her heart, not real, if you sink into it, in the long run, the body will be damaged and exhausted, not to mention, Madame's mind will also fall into the heart of the demon and cannot extricate itself, controlled by the mirror, isn't this still falling into the devil's way? ”

"But I don't feel pain." I stubbornly said, "On the contrary, I am happy and happy." ”

"These feelings are just illusions, it's not real, it's ephemeral and illusory." Duan Zhiyi was cruel and clear. I looked at him quietly for a long time and sighed, "Why is it wrong to cling to short-lived and illusory happiness?" Is it right to suffer real and long-lasting suffering? Long and short, real and illusory, must be the standard of constant right and wrong? ”

Duan Zhiyi looked at me deeply and sighed: "Mrs. Yun, you are too obsessed......"

Or. And how? Since no one can convince anyone, it is just a waste of each other's time to talk about it. I stood up and reached for the brocade box: "I'm going to take my things back." ”

"No way!" An Yuan stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the mirror, "I won't give it to you!" ”

"This is my thing, why don't you give it to me?" I haven't paid attention to An Yuanxi and Stygian Flame since I entered the door, and now I forced myself to put my eyes on his face and said coldly.

"Sister, if you want to take it back and continue to feed the mirror with blood, I won't agree to you taking it." Wraiflame also stood up, staring at me resolutely. I bit my lip and said softly: "I promise that I won't start it again, I will control myself, once a half month, okay?" Seeing An Yuanxi's eyes narrowing dangerously, he quickly changed his words again: "Once a month, I only start once a month, okay?" ”

"Don't you think it's because of this nightmare that you've suddenly become so paranoid? It's already tempting you! An Yuanxi suppressed his anger, "I won't let you take this demon mirror, and I won't let you use it again!" If you are so stubborn, I will destroy it! ”

"You dare!" I widened my eyes and hurriedly pressed my hands to the mirror, "You dare! You ruined it, I hate you for the rest of my life! ”

An Yuanxi's face twitched, and his face suddenly turned pale, but in his eyes, there was unprecedented firmness, and his tone was filled with suppressed pain: "You have hated me all your life anyway......"

I was cold, and the gloom and desperation in his tone made me unable to refute it, but the firmness in his eyes burned me, and I knew that he could really do what he said, and he would really ruin it. I was in a hurry, no, then I would never see Yun Zheng. I jerked his hand away and reached out to grab the bronze mirror, An Yuanxi moved faster than me, he grabbed my hand and pressed the mirror back to the table. There was anger and pain in his eyes, and a resolute look on his face. Boundless fear tightened me, and I couldn't break free of his hand. He pressed the mirror hard, the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out, my tears welled up, I shook my head, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't, far away, I beg you, don't destroy it, please, then I will never see Yun Zheng again......"

"Big brother lives in your heart, no one can destroy it, you don't need this mirror at all!" An Yuanxi's face was gray, let go of my hand, and almost at the same time, the hard copper mirror suddenly cracked under his palm, and shattered into several pieces in the blink of an eye.

"Don't ......" I threw myself on the table, hurriedly grabbed the fragments of the broken mirror, and my mind was suddenly blank, "Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng......" Tears poured out like a flood, my hands trembled uncontrollably, trying in vain to put those pieces together, Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng, I can still come to see you, just put it together...... Tears dripped onto the pile of fragments, the pile of broken copper suddenly emitted a faint golden light, lingering on the fragments, I watched this wonderful scene in amazement, those golden lights became more and more abundant, in an instant, the pile of broken lenses disappeared suddenly, only a pile of floating and flickering stars on the table remained, gradually dispersed, the mirror seemed to never appear, just disappeared without a trace, no trace left on the table.

"Yun Zheng? Yun Zheng? Yun Zheng, you come out......" I mourned, my hands brushed in vain on the table, almost suffocated in despair, "Yun Zheng ......"

"Sister-in-law!" The hand was held down by An Yuanxi, "You calm down!" ”

I stiffened, slowly straightened up, and looked up at him. His pained eyes and expression suddenly became so glaring, so hateful. I bit my lip and jerked out my hand, raising my hand and slapping him with all my might.

"Smack!" The crisp sound resounded in the room, and An Yuanxi's face was slapped away by me. "Sister......" "Lady Yun......" Stygian Flame and Duan Zhiyi exclaimed. However, their voices were blurred, their looks were blurred, and my eyes went black, and my body shook slightly, slowly sliding to the ground.
