Chapter 434: The Other Half of the Darkness
The reason why light is light. Because it illuminates the darkness.
So, what about darkness?
Darkness is the existence that can hide everything from the invisible, darkness has the power to destroy all beings, darkness is terrible, it is boundless.
Darkness makes people despair, and makes all living beings tremble with fear.
Once upon a time, before humans discovered fire, darkness was such a terrible existence.
Only a few creatures in the darkness have the ability to see, and most of them lie dormant under the power of darkness, hiding themselves in the safety of the walled caverns.
Because if one is not careful, life will be swallowed up by darkness. Disappear silently, and when the light returns, only a wreckage remains. The fragmented flesh and blood have long been gnawed clean by the darkness, leaving not even the dregs.
In the far sky, where the light could not be illuminated, an old figure floated, expressionless and without emotion in his eyes. The country, the city, the streets, and the tall buildings under your feet, those pedestrians who come and go are as small as ants.
A night plane full of passengers flew past the old man, and some children looked curiously out of the transparent glass of the cabin.
The clouds can still be seen, like dirty marshmallows, and are there stars on the ground?
"Mom, you see there's a guy there. β
"Silly boy, how could anyone be?"
......
"Your Excellency. An invisible wind cut through the air flow and rushed straight into the inky black night sky, but when it stopped, it was as stable as a mountain, and the body was like a mountain, with a solemn feeling of immobility and self-authority.
The young man respectfully floated to the old man's side and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
The old man did not answer his question, but squinted at the airliner that had flown off in the distance, as if talking to himself.
"People are afraid of the dark. What is there to be afraid of in the dark? Light and darkness are born one. There is no light without darkness. People want only the good, not the bad. Does darkness have to be bad?
It's been nearly half a month since the adults were in this state of chattering. He didn't know why, but he vaguely felt that there was hesitation in the adult's heart. Now there are only two of them left, if even adults are unsure, how should they face that incident?
"We are armed with the power of darkness and keep the order of the world's energies, but we are feared by the world. Don't they know that it is not the darkness that is terrible, but the murderous motive that hides in the shadows?
It's ridiculous, the old man has seen through everything in the world for ten thousand years, but he didn't expect that there is a dark power that yearns for light. Why? Why? Why did you abandon me? Why?"
The young man did not know why the adults were suddenly so desolate and sad. It's a strange feeling. He hadn't touched it, and he couldn't understand it.
"My lord!" he thought he should say, "don't you have too many emotions?!"
The people of the Mortal Monument must not have emotions, this is the rule engraved on the Realm Spirit Monument.
One monument by one, the monument of the dead was destroyed, and only the broken cornerstone proved that they once existed. No living beings in this world knew they existed, but they did exist.
The people of the Immortal Monument don't care if anyone knows about them, in their hearts, there is only duty, only one after another destroyed monument base for them to remember the meaning of their existence.
When darkness consumes everything, it means the end is coming, but what about light?
When the light covers the world, will people be safe forever?
Of course not, when there is only light left in this world, it will be a catastrophe, a catastrophe that will never end.
The planet is not capable of carrying much light energy, and humanity is unaware of it, and their science can only detect the values that can be captured. And the real invisible energy, they don't know anything.
"Yayu," the old man put away his bustling gaze at his feet, waved his sleeves and opened his mouth, and spit out a mottled round ball, the ball was black, and there was a glow hidden on it. Flickering like an asteroid circling around the old man, "It's time to get ready." β
The young man's face was a little surprised when he heard this, and he was puzzled, and asked urgently, "How could it be in advance?"
"It's awakened! but it doesn't want to come back to us. There was a cold smell in the old man's voice.
The asteroid, which had a faint light, suddenly lit up and swept higher into the distance, cutting through the air waves and dragging an invisible trail.
"My lord, go and bring it back. The young man stooped and knelt in the void and looked up at the old man with a look of determination on his face.
The old man frowned tightly and shook his head in distress, "No. Yayu, you and I are all dark beings, and it is the light born for darkness. In the current situation, you and I may not be able to forcibly take it away. It is all up to its will, and if it is enchanted by the light, then we can only break the ban on the underworld in advance and let the darkness return. β
The young man's body shook and he was shocked, "How can this be? It has been self-imposed for seven thousand years, why did it suddenly wake up?
"Don't ask," the old man stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, and said in a slow voice: "Back then, the barbarian underworld lord didn't know why there was still energy sealed in the secret clan's enchantment, and the old man didn't know why, they actually ran into it. Once I woke up, I thought about it, and we were powerless..."
The young man gasped, he had lived in the Sixth Realm for a long time, and he had not walked in the human world for a long time, and he felt an unspeakable fear.
What a terrifying existence is the king of the Immortal Monument, the Barbarian Underworld Lord, who even adults have only heard of but have never seen?!!
Unbeknownst to him, his little imagination limited his understanding of the word terrible.
"There is a saying in human beings that it is good to say that a phoenix is not as good as a chicken. The lord of the underworld has actually fallen to the point of being like a fighter, and the old man is in a panic, and he can't think about it all day long.
Yayu, the husband is old, if that day comes, you promise the old man that you must survive, otherwise the Mortal Monument will be finished. β
The young man looked at the old man, his eyes full of horror, "My lord..."
The old man looked up at the farther place above the dark sky, and waved lightly with his right hand, "You just need to promise the old man, don't say more." β
The young man blinked, bowed his head respectfully, and bent his neck in silence.
He couldn't. The people of the Monument must not have any emotion, why? Why can't there be emotion?
Anyone he met looked very moving, whether it was the old ladies in Tsing Yi Fang, the little girl in the supermarket, the drunk man on the side of the road, the woman dressed in a bewitching dress, and the secret spiritual power on the mountain...
Each of them is so vivid. Why can't the Mortal Monuments have those emotions that can make them vivid?
He couldn't. But he had to promise, my lord, the only existence in his thousands of years of life. Adults are his only ones!
......
Nine Creeks. White-walled glass house.
Zhao Gao knelt on the ground, trembling like fallen leaves blown by the wind. A dense layer of white sand coiled above his low-lying body, and a termite that seemed to be flying in mid-air swam leisurely, changing its posture.
"Great, great, sir..."Not only did his body tremble, but even his voice trembled so much that he couldn't say a complete sentence.
"Rubbish!" a handsome man sat on a couch beside the glass wall, one hand on one side of his head, his brow furrowed. Raised his foot and kicked Zhao Gao, who was kneeling in front of him, to the other side of the huge living room.
After falling on all fours, he trembled and quickly knelt down and climbed to the man's feet. He swallowed desperately, and the fear made him completely unable to feel the pain of his soul being gnawed.
"Three days have passed, and the evil spirits released are not ten thousand, but thousands, and they can't even find a shadow. Zhao Gao, what's the use of me raising you?"
The man stood up, his tall figure obscuring the light on the ceiling, and the shadow covered Zhao Gao's body. This made the fear in his heart rise even more uncontrollably, and his whole body shook as if it would fall apart at any moment.
"Big, big, big, sir..."The desire to survive made him raise the last of his strength and hug one of the man's legs tightly, and raised his head to reveal bloodshot eyes, and swore dumbly, "My lord, again, give the little one more time, definitely, you will definitely be able to find the little master." Definitely..."
"Hmph, Zhao Gao, I can rest assured that I will entrust the matter of guarding the mountain to you, and I have been condensing the dark light for the past month. But you conceal the truth and refuse to accept it, what is your intention?!"
Kita Yayoi squinted at the obscene villain holding his legs, his murderous intent suddenly rose, and he raised his hand to summon the white sand, and in an instant, the white sand swept into the air and gathered in one place, like a sharp cone piercing into Zhao Gao's body in an instant.
The sound of screaming and wailing resounded in the living room, and Kitayayoi glanced at it impatiently, his face full of disgust.
Thinking of losing Ah Rong's whereabouts again, his anger was uncontrollable, no one could stop him, he wanted to kill someone. Take Zhao Gao first, and then go to slaughter the broken mountain. One, don't stay!
"My lord!" Zhao Gao, who was struggling to the ground in pain, seemed to have something squirming under the skin on his face, and his pupils were already covered with white sand, looking extremely oozing.
"Find, find... It's day... Ben, in... Japan..."Crawling to the feet of Kitayayoi with difficulty, the white sand gnawed at the evil spirit in the soul's body and the turbid qi could not be suppressed.
Kitayoi's right eye twitched, and with a wave of his hand, Bai Sha slowly walked from Zhao Gao's face to the top of his head, and finally broke out and returned to the fake pool next to the remnant wall.
kicked Zhao Gao away, disgusted and questioned, "If you lie to me, you will wait to feed the Pan Hellhole Cave!"
"A place called Tokyo, but the little master disappeared as soon as he appeared. Sheβ" Before she could finish speaking, her throat was choked.
Kita Yayoi pinched Zhao Gao and carried him into the air, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was extremely ruthless.
"Disappeared again?!Zhao Gao, do you think I have to kill you and can't kill you?"
With a wave of his hand, he slammed his entire body into the remnant wall Before falling into the white sand, Zhao Gao jumped to the ground on the side, and fell to his knees again and trembled.
"No, no, no, adults, small, small don't dare. It's true, the little master is followed by him. In a blink of an eye, it was gone. Adult, again, give the villain another day, and the villain will definitely find the little master. β
Kita Yayoi looked at Zhao Gao with his eyes like lightning, and after being silent for a while, "Get out, half a day, tomorrow at noon, if there is no news." Lay thyself in the Cave of Martyrdom, lest your death be too ugly. β
Falling to his knees, he crawled out of the living room backwards all the way, and only got up until the door frame prescription, staggering out of the shadow...
Kitayoi walked out of the living room and came to the stream to watch the stream reflect the light, and thought for a long time.
He knew very well that since Ah Cheng was still alive, he would definitely be able to get it back. It's just that he vaguely feels that this Zhao Gao seems to have other scheming, otherwise why would he close the Disk Cave, but he kept everything outside the world silent, and didn't say that he was lost until he got out.
Rong Yuan left a letter to look around, and judging from the time of the message he left, it has been nearly a month. What the hell is going on here?
Raising Zhao Gao in his own body is that he himself is not willing to deal directly with evil spirits, and he himself is not an evil spirit, and he can't react with other evil spirits, so he can't better control those disgusting things;
Secondly, he always wanted to keep his body. The Netherworld has the ability to protect the body from decay, but it needs to be supported by a soul and cannot and cannot convert energy into the body.
But because of that incident, his soul could not return to his physical body. Although I don't know if he can achieve his wish for the unity of soul and body when the dark light is condensed to the extreme, he still has to try. How do you know the result without trying?
Ah Ah, where have you been?
Damn Fusu, what is the old boy thinking about again? He actually abducted Ah Rong, so that I could see you and tear you apart. Now, the dark light is complete, and you old boy is probably no longer my opponent. Hum...
Kitayoi stood beside the stream in a daze, thinking carefully about the piles and piles. Sometimes the expression is serious, sometimes the expression is happy.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something tricky, his brows furrowed tightly, and he muttered, "The other half of the darkness, the other half of the darkness, the other half?"
The ancient inscriptions engraved on the Tianhuang lantern were unrecognizable after studying them for a long time.
The result was a pure accident. He went to the north to slaughter the Liu family before, and it was difficult to dispel the resentment in his heart, so he searched the entire northern ice field wilderness. It actually let him catch a lonely ghost who has been left in the world for more than 3,000 years.
The old woman was also strange and was directly forgotten by the yincha, and she also carried through the evil realm where her own energy slowly disappeared, dragging the remnant soul until now!
When condensing the dark light of the disk, he originally threw the souls of the dead into the furnace and melted them, but the old woman's remnant soul begged for mercy, and the desire to survive was not strong!
Kita Yayoi admires this kind of player who refuses to give up when he dies, and if he doesn't want to turn into ashes, then tell me what is your use. Not raising useless people is a good quality that he has retained over more than 2,000 years.
So, how did the old woman avoid the yin and ask for the soul, and how erudite she was in her previous life, you must know that there are still few learned women like her in the Zhou Dynasty, Yunyun...
Trick me into not knowing how to write and ink?
No, even the words that I can't recognize as a wise man Xiao Ji of Baiyue, can you know as an old woman?
Facts have proved that there is some truth in the saying that 'there is an old man in the family'.
The old woman read the words engraved on the ancient lamp in their entirety.
In the dark night, beside the Nine Creeks stream, Kita Yayoi stopped for a long time to think about the meaning of that sentence until the sky was bright.
