Chapter 266: Sacrifice
"Hurry up!"
Lu Fenfang wanted to pull away from the flowers, but it was too late. A thing with only a jet-black skeleton left all over his body, but a nest of ghosts on the skeleton suddenly jumped onto Xia Yuanhua's back, holding Xia Yuanhua's wrist with both hands, Sen Sen's sharp teeth bit her neck, Xia Yuanhua's eyes suddenly lost his mind and turned red!
Lu Fenfang understood, Cen Qiniang was not idle at all when she was imprisoned in the Thunder Suppression Demon Ball, and actually used the aura in the ball to quietly cross the poison on Wu Yingshao's body, and then broke the ball out when Xia Yuanhua was approaching, and controlled her with demon control!
"Lu Fenfang, I didn't expect it, I, Cen Qiniang, didn't die so easily." Cen Qiniang manipulated Xia Yuanhua to speak in her tone, her appearance was still Xia Yuanhua's own, but the eyes shot out of her pupils were Cen Qiniang's.
"Do you think that if Xia Yuanhua is used as a shield, I will not dare to kill you with a mouse trap?"
"Hehe, you are now the sword master, what else do you dare not do?" Cen Qiniang said with a smile, "I think that when you rounded up Jian Ke in the Gongri Courtyard of Taisu Palace, Jian Ke used the madwoman Chen Xiang'er as a shield, but you didn't even want to hurt the ruthless and ignorant madwoman, it was really a bodhisattva's heart." But now, you are no longer the simple and kind little girl you used to be, as the sword master, you are burdened with the heavy responsibility of destroying demons and defending the way, I believe that you can only make the choice of sacrificing the lives of your friends in order to kill me, right? ”
Compared with being kidnapped by Wu Yingshao just now, although Lu Fenfang is much calmer on the surface, she has a more complex and profound touch in her heart. In order to compete for the limited spiritual vein spiritual treasure, Tian Yong was in civil strife, destroying the sect's century-old foundation; Taisu's secret fight also destroyed the most innocent friendship between Tiaohua, Chenglei and others. Influenced by the demagogy of the previous generation, they joined various factions and fought against each other without mercy.
But in the end. At the critical moment of life and death of internal and external troubles, Fan Yuqing and Chen Yuyi sat in the main hall of Taisu Palace and tasted tea, saying hypocritical words, and acting quietly, but the most bitter consequences had to be borne by the most kind and innocent people.
And this kind and flawless person has only one name in their eyes, called a chess piece. Sacrificing a few pieces is really inconsequential. They care. There is only victory in the end.
But is this struggle to protect the common people? It's so boring, so dirty, and the dantian is full of true qi. But the heart is full of poisonous gas, what is the meaning of such a practice?
What a sword master, what a master. What a tribal master, such a noble title of yours. I can't afford it!
"Cen Qi Niang, you put Tiaohua down." Lu Fenfang said, "I'll tell you one last time, take her." Put it down. ”
"Hahaha...... Lu Fenfang, come on, make a move. Send me and her to the Western Heavens together, and you will be admired by all the people in the immortal cultivation world. Chen Yuyi will also invite you to enter the Taisu Palace and ascend to the position of elder, and in the future, all the spiritual weapon cheats of the Taisu Palace will be yours, and the ascension is just around the corner! ”
"Bang-"
Cen Qiniang couldn't laugh or say anything. She didn't even see how the hundred qi swords of different sizes floating in the air instantly condensed into one, penetrating Xia Yuanhua's chest and then penetrating hers.
The hundred swords stabbed the vertebrae, Cen Qiniang's lower body fell to the ground, and the upper body lay on Xia Yuanhua's body, and fell down with her.
**
Seven years later.
The early summer sun sprinkled on Lu's fragrant moon-white dress, illuminating her whole person, as if the shadow of the jade soul was walking through the green mountains and forests. The food box in her hand revealed a rich and pure aroma of meat, which was a little incompatible with the lonely mountain forest.
She climbed the mountain alone for a long time, and arrived at a lonely grave behind the bamboo forest. The tomb looked like it had been newly renovated, and the stone tablet was like a newly swept tablet, so she put the food box aside and took out a large bowl of blue and white from it. When the lid was lifted, the fragrant smell of ham stewed elbow suddenly plunged into the fresh air after the rain.
"Here comes the ham stew that promised you." Lu Fenfang squatted down and stroked the words on the tombstone, "It's just that it's ten years late." ”
Cheng Lei, ten years late, I'm sorry.
"You remember today, too."
A white figure suddenly turned out of the bamboo shadow. Lu Fenfang turned around and saw that it was her, and her eyes jumped. I also saw that her complexion was not as rosy as before, but it was white and transparent, probably because of the cultivation of the Snow Condensation Technique; The dress has also changed from sky blue to purple blue, and she has probably been promoted to the head of the Langmei Academy; Fortunately, the white lotus in his hand is still as fresh as snow and fragrant.
"I haven't seen you in seven years, I didn't expect to meet here."
"Listen to you, it seems like I'm not here at the right time."
"It's me who came at the wrong time. This minced meat is fishy, I'm afraid it will pollute the aromatic flowers in your hands. ”
"Heh, compared to the newly bloomed white lotus, maybe your Wanhua ham is more realistic."
"A bowl of ham, a lotus flower, there is nothing to compare."
"I ...... Hehe. I want Cheng Lei to watch this white lotus wither, isn't it too cruel? It's still good that you can't see it. ”
"Flowers will wither, food will spoil, this is natural common sense, no matter what he sees or goes through, he will not blame you and me." Lu Fenfang said, "After so many years, you still can't let go?" ”
Tiaohua was silent. She didn't know where Lu Fenfang had gone all these years and what she had done, the Immortal Cultivation World only knew that she was the only Kunwu Sword Master, but she didn't belong to any place in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
The mountain breeze is sassy and refreshing, which really makes people no longer want to enter the world.
"I heard that Zhou Chongbi went to Tianshuiyuan." Tiaohua said, "Have you been to see him?" ”
"Nope."
"Why?"
"Tianshui Yuan is the stronghold of the remnants of the Demon Realm, he is a demon, how can he have too close contact with the Sword Master of the Immortal Cultivation Realm."
Lu Fenfang's words were a little indescribably desolate. Tiaohua sighed and said: "Chenglei is gone, Uncle Xiao is gone, you and him, do you want to be separated?" ”
"As long as you and I are safe, there is no time to see each other." Lu Fenfang turned around, as if to go down the mountain on foot. Xia Yuanhua stopped: "Where are you going?" ”
Lu Fenfang didn't look back.
"Penglai Palace."
"What are you going to do?"
"Out to sea."
"What are you going to do at sea?"
"Look for the ruins of the sea."
"When will you be back?"
"A year at least, a lot at ...... I don't know. ”
Lu Fenfang said, and the figure disappeared into the mountains and forests. She remembered that when she was a child, it was also such a new rainy morning, and she ran out of the house. Chasing my sister's back from afar......
"Sister, why are you going?"
"Get out on the ground."
"What are you going to do in the ground?"
"Look at the crops."
"When will you be back?"
"Come back when it's dark."
"When is it dark?"
"I don't know."
At that time, she was only separated from her sister and father for one day, and she felt that it was so long that she couldn't stand the sun. She's a little scared of such conversations, where are you going, what are you going to do, when are you coming back. She was afraid that the answer would be too far away.
Until today. She herself gave the most distant answer to others. After a long time, everyone will no longer greet each other because the answer is uncertain; No matter how long it takes. The people who can care for each other are gone.
She is a cultivator, and she used to have such bold words.
But now, it's just because the person she cares about is no longer there, and there is no more story about her in this vast world. What she wants to do is to live alone.
Maybe. Not alone.
**
Tianshuiyuan is a magical land with only winter. Although the weather is bitterly cold all day long, the only good thing is that every night the stars hang down in the plains, as if the stars of the entire Three Realms are hanging in this sky, looking up. It's like there's no more to worry about.
"Chief?"
"Patriarch."
Zhou Chongbi immediately sat cross-legged, and the bald patriarch with his naked body sat down next to him, and casually threw a piece of wood into the fire: "Don't call me that." Yesterday, our Xinghai Department already respected you as the leader. ”
"I'm going to attack Tiansuwon Dacheng tomorrow, I don't know what other instructions the leader has?"
"Nope. Everything went according to plan. The demon killing world was caught off guard. ”
"The fleet of Penglai Palace will go to sea tomorrow and go to the ruins of the sea, and I heard that the road sword master will also go." The patriarch said, "If we raid Tianshuiyuan, I'm afraid that the newly established little demon lord won't have the energy to take care of the affairs of the Immortal Cultivation Realm." ”
Such...... Best.
"Why is the leader silent, but what is the difficulty?"
"Nope." Zhou Chongbi wrapped his robe tightly and said, "The weather in Tianshuiyuan is very cold, presumably it is spring in Anhui, Shu, and Guizhou at this time." ”
"It's summer."
"Oh......"
"Is the patriarch homesick?"
Zhou Chongbi didn't speak, and silently lit the cigarette gun. The fireworks here are very heavy, so he can't remember the fragrance of hosta flowers on Mengzhen Cliff, and he can't remember the fragrance of youth on Kunlun Mountain. It's been too long.
At this time, the patriarch's little granddaughter suddenly ran over and threw herself into her grandfather's arms. Zhou Chongbi extinguished the cigarette and looked at the pair of black eyes like small grapes with a smile: "Why are you covering your nose, don't you like the smell of smoke in your uncle's mouth?" ”
"Hee-hee." The little girl rolled in her grandfather's arms with a smile, "Grandpa grandpa, Uncle Zhou's nose is red, why is he so afraid of the cold, and he is still the leader, hahaha......"
"Little girl, don't talk nonsense." The patriarch patted the little girl's vest, "You say this Uncle Zhou, Uncle Zhou is going to be angry, you sing a good song, he will be happy." ”
"Hmm...... What song does Uncle Zhou want to listen to? The little girl sat on her grandfather's lap and looked at Zhou Chongbi and asked. Zhou Chongbi smiled: "You can sing whatever you want." ”
The little girl tilted her head and thought about it, pinched her voice and sang softly. Her voice was thin and green, but it seemed that her singing voice was the only one left in the whole wasteland:
"Who is asking you, I don't know where the guests are coming from?
In the aftermath of the world, you said it was your home.
Who asks, do you know how heavy the heavens and the earth are?
How far away you want it to be, how big the floating world is.
How many people are asking where you are going?
You don't answer, just step on the mountains and waters.
I'm afraid that if I stop, I'll miss him again.
Turns out you're just homesick.
How will he recognize you in this life in the next life?
The soil in my heart has been full of the fragrance of the next world.
In the dream, there is still the words that are too late to say,
It's just that the question is yes.
The journey of the three lives and the third world has worn out their feet,
The blood color brightly colored the flowers on the Sansheng Road.
They were covered with bruises, but they smiled and said the words of their previous lives,
Speaking of which, you are my home. ”
