It's February 11.

The stars were strange on this night, covered with clouds, obscuring the moon, and a star appeared and disappeared in the southern night sky. The cloud burned like a raging fire, emitting a dazzling red light, baking the land under the sky, causing the temperature of the earth to rise suddenly, Yun Yun suddenly had a fever, and the heat and cold in her body were opposed, unable to relieve herself and causing her to fall into a coma, and Zhuang Sheng had nothing to do.

The sky was weirdly chaotic, the only five or six servants left and two more, Nuoda's Zhuang Mansion was empty, silent, Zhuang Sheng passed by the Buddhist hall, he could hear the **chanting, he dragged his heavy steps, went to look at Yun Yun, her calm face lost all look and brilliance, Zhuang Sheng's heart was not painful, he walked to the mirror, stared at the people inside for a long time, and walked out of the room, looking at the scarlet moon, "Send me a miracle." He muttered, almost in despair.

"February 11, February 12, what a profound date. Today, tomorrow, what will happen? Why do I have a shadow of something from the future in my memory? ”

Zhuang Sheng felt that his mind seemed to be occupied by inexplicable memories, but when he concentrated on recalling, he would forget everything, and only at some uncertain moment, a thought would flash by.

"If I could really foresee the future, I wondered if she would live? Will I be able to live? He held his breath, trying to catch a little shadow, but he didn't perceive anything.

Suddenly there was a sudden heartache, he felt hopeless, this moment seemed to be the end of the world, his own life also came to an end, he was still standing in the courtyard, the moon in his eyes was getting redder and redder, red and black, his eyes were black, and he was about to faint in a trance.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed overhead, and a plain-clothed Taoist priest floated down.

"Dao Chief!" Zhuang Sheng recognized him at a glance and hurriedly begged, "Save her quickly." ”

"Ben Dao has already expected it, take me quickly."

At this time, Yun Yun's face was as rosy as pink, her body was as cold as frost, and she could only see her lips trembling slightly.

Dao Chang Yun tapped twice on her shoulder blades, sealed her qi veins, and used her qi to dissolve her cold poison, saying: "This is not a long-term method, she is possessed by a wisp of soul thoughts of that ice corpse, and it must be removed from her body to be eradicated, you bring her with me." ”

Zhuang Sheng carried her on her back and went with the Taoist chief, and when she arrived at the secret room, she put Yun Yun and the ice corpse side by side.

"Brother Zhuang don't have to worry, Miss Yun is washed by the cold and heat, and her body will inevitably be hurt, she is tired and tired at this time, sleep well, and she will wake up tomorrow morning."

Zhuang Sheng was relieved when he heard the Taoist chief say this, looked at the female ice corpse, and asked, "What is this?" Since she has a soul, is she dead or alive? ”

"Neither dead nor alive."

"What does that mean?"

"If I ignore it, she will have a soul like a dead man; I cast a spell slightly, and she can survive even if she is like a dead corpse. ”

"This..."Zhuang Sheng was surprised and speechless.

"In fact, it is up to you whether you live or die." The Taoist chief said.

"Me? The Taoist chief laughed, what can I do, I am not a doctor, and I don't know how to bring the dead back to life, how to decide whether she lives or dies? ”

Meishan Dao Chang smiled and said: "You don't know, there is an ancient myth among the people that has been passed down for thousands of years, thousands of years ago, the two demons fought against each other, fought for several days without winning or losing, and entered the world from the realm of no one, because of the invasion of yang energy, the mana was greatly reduced, one fell into the raging volcano, one fell into the snowy iceberg, the body of the person who fell into the volcano burned and only the soul remained, and the body of the person who fell into the iceberg was intact but was frozen for thousands of years, and now she has to see the light of day again." ”

"Is she a demon?"

"Thousands of years of ice and fire have long worn out her consciousness and mana, and only this thousand years of cold air remains."

"What about the legendary spirits that fell into the volcano?" Zhuang Sheng asked.

"That's the red cloud in the sky now." The Taoist chief said, "Whenever the world encounters a great calamity, the southeast star is translocated, and the red cloud will appear, which is its hottest time. ”

The Taoist chief continued: "The so-called strong is strong, and today is also the time when her cold is at its peak, and only she can fight against this blazing heat. ”

"Having said all this, what does it have to do with me?"

"Irrigate it with your blood, and then dredge the blood veins of her whole body, so that her body and soul become one, and she can come back to life, and then the extremely strong cold will be completely released, which is better than before, and it should be no problem to save the people of the whole city from the heat."

Zhuang Sheng laughed dryly twice and asked, "What the Taoist chief said is not a joke?" ”

"How can you joke about such a big thing," said the Taoist chief, "and in two hours it will be the ugly time, when the yin energy is the strongest, and the yang energy is the weakest, and it is the best time to make a move." ”

"Listen to the sermon's arrangement." Zhuang Sheng said.

Two hours later, the ugly hour had come.

The Taoist chief then told him to lie down and take out a disc-shaped object, only the size of a palm, with a thumb-sized circular groove in the center, and several deep and shallow gullies of different thicknesses were connected around the grooves, but each furrow was finally gathered into one, which was connected directly to the edge of the disc - this object was called the Luan Rong Instrument. The Dao Chang placed the index fingers of the two on each side of the Luan Rong Instrument, and Zhuang Sheng's blood began to flow into the Luan Rong Instrument, and the Dao Chief injected True Qi, and the blood finally flowed into the body of the female corpse.

"The next thing is left to Ben Dao, the cold is getting stronger here, you take Miss Yun away." The Taoist chief said.

Zhuang Sheng still carried her and left, out of the secret room, when it was ugly, the sky was not the bright moon, but it was covered by layers of red clouds, the ground was as red as a sea of fire, there were no pedestrians on the street, but the noise came and went, this scene was really like purgatory.

Zhuang Sheng was not afraid of the cold, but this heat wave made him almost out of breath, he blushed, and when he brought Yun Yun home, he fainted.

Just after the third watch, to the fourth watch, a cold snap rose from the ground, and the heat wave formed a confrontation, about an hour later, the temperature of the ground gradually dropped, the clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, everything returned to the original.

Before dawn, Zhuang Sheng woke up, asked Luo'er to fetch water and wash his face, he was a lot more conscious, he suddenly remembered Yun Yun, and immediately went to see her, and saw that she was sleeping soundly, and there was no sign of illness before, so he was very relieved.

Outside, to the courtyard, and then look up at the bright night sky - the moon is very light, the sky is gray and black, quiet and peaceful. Zhuang Sheng remembered the scene of last night, and he thought it was a nightmare. He put what he said before... I forgot most of the words and the things I experienced, and the rest of them were too profound to forget, so when the Taoist entered over the wall, he sighed in amazement: "Taoist Chief, you are finally back." ”

Suddenly, he felt that something was not right, that the correlation between things was gone, and he only remembered some disorganized fragments.

The Taoist chief only smiled and said, "Since I left that day, I have been in a state of panic all day long, and I can't get rid of all the distracting thoughts in my heart, so I walked on a walk, but one day I came to an unknown mountain, and there was a hole in the mountain, and the weather in the cave was quiet, which was suitable for cultivation. Then retreat for five days to enlighten the Tao with one mind, and consciously enter the realm of truth; Later, he retreated for half a month to eliminate the demonic obstacles, and Fang Jue's avenue was completed. ”

"No wonder the Taoist chief looked at the more and more Dao bone fairy wind, and he was out of the dust."

"The Tao is endless, the cultivation is endless, the mission of this Dao coming back this time has been completed, and I am here to say goodbye."

"Leaving again? Where to go? ”

"You have to go, you have to practice, the path of cultivation is under your feet, and you don't have to stick there."

"Will I ever see you again, in the future?"

The Taoist only showed a mysterious smile, and instead asked, "Do you remember that female corpse?" ”

Zhuang Sheng nodded.

"She is alive, except that her body is slightly cold, her bones are still stiff, she is no different from a normal person, her bones will become soft after a long time, and it is unknown what the cold body will be in the future, and she is reborn after this catastrophe, and everything needs to start from scratch."

"From scratch? What does that mean? ”

"The beginning of life begins with infancy, do you understand?"

Zhuang Sheng was confused, and he didn't know why, "What the hell is going on?" He asked.

"Heaven and earth, all things in the world, not all things can be explained by this way, this female corpse is resurrected, this way does not know what the reason is, but it may be destined." The Taoist chief said, "Since she exists, it is reasonable, so she follows the way of nature, you and I only need to treat it with a benevolent and benevolent heart, and we don't have to worry about its origin, do you understand?" Besides, she has your blood in her body, she is your relative, and you treat her well. ”

Zhuang Sheng was ignorant.

"Also, she'll wake up when the sun rises today, and you'd better let her see you first, so she'll see you like a dear."

"I—" Zhuang Sheng said.

"No need to say, no need to ask." The Taoist chief interrupted him and said, "I'm leaving, I don't have to send it." ”

After speaking, he jumped and gradually disappeared into the pale moonlight.

Zhuang Sheng pestleed, and the scene in front of him was like a strange painting.
