When Du Heng set foot on the land of Liubo Mountain again, he found that this overseas island had hardly changed, and it was still the same as when he came to study art hundreds of years ago.

The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, the grass is delicious, and the islanders are happy in the town below the mountain, and everything is still as comfortable as a paradise.

Du Heng sat in the restaurant where he first came and asked for a few dishes that were exactly the same back then. Just as he was looking at the plate of tofu in front of him and reminiscing about the past, he suddenly found a handsome little girl next to him, staring blankly at the dishes on his table.

The little girl's face is dirty, her clothes are not very neat, and her big smart eyes are innocent and clear.

Du Heng was suddenly shocked, and the situation on the day he first met Quan Hui suddenly appeared. He beckoned to the little girl and said kindly, "Are you hungry?" Would you like to have something to eat? ”

The little girl nodded timidly, took a step forward, hesitated for a moment and then retracted.

Du Heng smiled, picked up a plate of sugar packets and sent them to the little girl, and said softly: "Eat." ”

The little girl looked at the sugar bag and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and was about to reach out to take it, when she was suddenly stopped by a woman and picked up.

"You girl, teach you not to run around, don't eat what people give you, why don't you listen?"

Du Heng straightened up and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I see that this child is pitiful, I think it's an orphan, so I want to give her something to eat......"

"You're an orphan! Your whole family is orphaned! The woman spoke disrespectfully.

Du Heng was stunned for a moment, but he didn't mind, but smiled: "I'...... Orphans indeed. ”

This time it was the woman's turn to be stunned.

The woman looked at the sugar packet in Du Heng's hand, her face softened a lot, and said, "The girl likes to eat this." Then he hesitated, reached for one.

Du Heng looked at the woman's gestures, and suddenly felt that she seemed to be a little like a virtuous woman.

"Master, is that you?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then quickly put the sugar packet back on the plate, picked up the little girl and walked away quickly. As he walked, he glanced back at Du Heng, as if he was looking at a person with a sick brain.

Du Heng stood at the door with a plate for a long time, and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

It's been a long time, and when I come back, everyone looks like Master.

After Du Heng finished eating, he walked around the town and came to the big tree that led to the Liubo Gate. The tree was still strong, and its dragon-like roots were deep under the bluestone slabs, as if nothing in the world could stop it.

He reached out and touched the bark of the big tree, and the rough touch crossed the palm of his hand, and it felt no different from an ordinary tree.

Du Heng took two steps back, aimed at the trunk of the big tree, and rushed forward hard, but his head slammed into the bark of the tree, and he was stunned to knock himself on the head.

"What's going on...... What about the door......" Du Heng rubbed his head and said to himself, "Is it because I don't wear women's clothes?" ”

Du Heng was wondering to himself, and suddenly, the voices of a group of children sounded in his ears.

"Look! There's a fool who is hitting a tree! ”

"Hahaha...... Idiot! Idiot! ”

Du Heng ignored the taunts of the group of children, but went directly to the store to buy a women's outfit and quickly changed into it, and then returned to the tree.

The group of kids was still there waiting to see the joke.

"Master is quite serious, knowing that I am a man, but he won't let me in without changing his clothes." Du Heng muttered to himself, and slammed into the big tree again.

only heard the sound of "bang", Du Heng was bounced by the big tree and fell to the ground, and a big bag suddenly rose on his head.

"Hahahaha!" The group of children laughed even louder.

Du Heng sat beside the tree in a daze, unable to accept this fact for a while.

What's going on? I obviously didn't misremember the location, why can't I get in? Did Liubomen move and didn't tell me? Or does Master not want to see me? Okay, since the master doesn't want me to enter the door, I'll wait here, the Liubo Gate is all female disciples, and someone has to come out to buy rouge gouache, so I don't believe I can't catch one or two.

So he moved a stone and sat down next to the tree, staring intently at the trunk of the tree, for fear that a mistake in his eyes would make the disciple escape.

Du Heng didn't move, the children looked interesting at first, but then they all walked away when they felt bored.

Day after day, Du Heng didn't know that he had been sitting here for a few days, but he felt that the children who came here every day to watch the excitement had grown up a lot, but the old tree was always quiet.

"Why is this happening?" Du Heng stood up suddenly, "Did you even lock up your disciples in order not to see me?!" ”

"Wake up! Wake up, madman! The children around cheered.

Du Heng suddenly remembered that when he first came here more than 200 years ago, the owner of the restaurant had seen Meng Qiongpei make a move. Although after so many years, the boss may be long gone, but maybe his son and grandson will know about it.

The business of the restaurant was very good, and the shopkeeper was busy taking care of the guests, when suddenly a colorful figure rushed in from outside the door, clasped the shopkeeper's neck with one hand, and pressed him against the wall.

"This aunt ...... Girl, what are you going to do? The shopkeeper was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body.

"I ask you!" Du Heng roared angrily, his voice like a wounded lion, "Where have all the disciples of the Liubo Sect gone?" Why can't that big tree in the alley get in? What the hell is going on with all this?! ”

"Stream...... Tree ......," the shopkeeper panicked, "girl...... Son...... What the hell are you talking about? ”

"You don't have garlic for me! Are you just a disciple of Liubomen, who came to deceive me?! ”

The shopkeeper shuddered, "I...... What have I become, the little one has lived here since he was a child, and I haven't heard of any streamers......"

Du Heng buckled the shopkeeper tighter, and said angrily: "Besides, you haven't heard of Liubomen?" Isn't this mountain called Liubo Mountain? Isn't the old tree in the alley the entrance to the Liubo Gate?! ”

The shopkeeper was almost soaked with sweat, and said in a trembling voice: "What Liubo Mountain?" This mountain is called Yuzhou Mountain, and the trees in the alley were transplanted from the mountain last year, so how can there be any entrance? ”

"Yuzhou Mountain? Transplanting?! Du Heng's hand was loosened, and the shopkeeper's butt fell to the ground.

"How could it be...... How so...... I don't remember the wrong location, this is Liubo Mountain, it must be the master who lied to me, you are all the master who deceived me! Du Heng angrily pointed at the customers in the store, "You guys! Why are you lying to me? Master, why are you lying to me?! I just have a question in my mind and want to know the answer. It's just that you don't come out to see me, why do you act like you never existed?! You said! You say!! ”

The guests were so frightened that they ran out of the restaurant, and the shopkeeper shrank behind the counter and shivered, and the guests didn't dare to ask for money for dinner.

Du Heng ran to the street in despair, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar town in front of him, and his mind was spinning for a while.

Master, why? Why! Why the hell are you avoiding me?!

The townspeople gathered around Du Heng from afar.

A child asks a woman, "Mom, is he a man or ......a woman?"

Before he could finish speaking, the little boy's mouth was immediately covered by the woman.

Du Heng turned his head and stared at the little boy suddenly, as if he wanted to stare through the little boy. The woman was so frightened that she picked up the little boy and fled through the crowd.

The little boy reminded Du Heng of Shui Yangbo.

Okay, didn't you pretend that nothing happened? I'll go to your brother and see what he has to say.

Du Heng flew towards the Chongyin Mountain and drove away to the clouds.

He turned around the sky for a long time according to the direction in his memory, but he never saw the shadow of the Heavy Yin Mountain.

The land that was originally covered with the Enchanted Forest has now been replaced by a peach forest, and the green peach peaches poke their heads out of the branches from time to time with the wind. And under the cliff at the end of the peach forest, a place that should have been a desert was now rolled by a surging river.

Du Heng stood by the river without saying a word. The big waves were higher and higher, and they slapped on Du Heng's shoes.

"Good! All right! One or two of you, all pretending not to know me, aren't you? You can only come to me when you are happy, and I can't come to you if I have something, right? Du Heng suddenly laughed, "You great immortals, the shelf is brought to the sky, if you are happy, you will help twice, and if you are unhappy, you will erase all the traces left in the world, it is really willful......"

He looked at the rushing river in front of him, and suddenly felt like the deceased.

The so-called exhaustion, tens of thousands of years later, is just a passing cloud, and all of us are just a speck of dust in the torrent of time. Even if I kill Yu Kongsang, will the world be peaceful, won't there be any more Xie Kongsang in the future? Cao Kongsang? When the time comes, there will be people like me who will kill them. And fighting back and forth, the sea becomes mulberry fields, the sky is still this sky, the land is still this land, everything we do has no effect on them, so what is the meaning of all this? Like Shui Yangbo, who knows the past and the present, I'm afraid that if I see all this through, I suddenly feel bored, so I just walked away.

What did you say before, the world must rely on me to save it, otherwise it will overturn. But what about after overturning? The weeds that have been burned by the wildfire will sprout new shoots, and after the overthrow of the world, there will definitely be a new force to restore everything. Maybe I'm just a piece in this big game, and I happen to be the most useful piece in this game. But this game is over, there is still the next game, a new game, a new piece, and we will eventually forget. Shui Yangbo said this, I'm afraid he just doesn't want us to lose this game of chess too quickly.

Du Heng suddenly wanted to jump into the big river, and he was gone. But he knew that he couldn't drown, even if this life was gone, and there was still an afterlife, so he suddenly envied mortals, he could just go, so clean.

Lan Yu said that there are all kinds of benefits to becoming an immortal, but things must be reversed, and after death, they will fall into the suffering of the cycle of reincarnation. However, what is so good about becoming an immortal, even if it is cultivated to the point of being invincible in the world, how boring it should be. ”

He muttered to himself, and his voice was swallowed up by the sound of the waves in an instant.

He closed his eyes and listened quietly to the sound of the waves hitting the cliff, feeling tired.

When will it end? Can it still be over? Even if it's over, then what? What's the point of all this? If you don't have so many fetters and don't have so many relatives who can't let go, it may not be a good choice to leave. Anyway, Master and Shui Yangbo are gone, and Ganzao has a night to watch, and when all this is over, I will leave with them.

Du Heng thought like this, and suddenly felt some itching on his ankles. And he looked down, but saw nothing.

"What's that?"

Du Heng reached out to touch his ankle, and he actually touched a thin and long silver wire, which he couldn't find without looking carefully.

It seems to be...... Hair?
