Chapter 83: Nothing is nothing
Qi Huan leaned out of the rubble with force.
Fang Cai's fall lasted for a long time, almost the same as the spiritual veins when they came, because it was so high here. But luckily, this gave Qi Huan enough time to summon a row of paper figures. The small paper figures were connected, like several long bands attached to them, pulling several people from all sides. When they landed, they were surrounded by several rings of paper figurines, and any falling rocks would only hit an invisible cover.
After the long collapse, they were crushed in the gaps between the huge stones. Liu Shenghan injured his leg, but fortunately it was only a minor injury, but he was only unable to move. It took a lot of effort for Ao Yan and Qi Huan to dig a way out of the dense rocks and clods. They struggled to bring out the chills, and finally had the time to look around. They were still on the mountain—but this was not the top of the mountain, but the "hill platform," and there were still uneven peaks on all sides, and the place where the highest mountain had collapsed, that is, the area of the influence of Garuda's divine power, had stopped.
Where are they?
The yellow sand is so thick that it will take a long time for the air to become as permeable as ever. Today, there are very few remnants of the man-made temple, replaced by a large number of trees on the mountainside. Some places are very wet, about the influence of the river. They could even see the white snow that was still piled up. At this height, they should melt quickly.
"Lao Bai! Where's you, old white—"
"Bai Shaoxia? Bai Shaoxia—"
They shouted in vain among the huge ruins. The cracks between the rubble swallowed up the echoes, making voices even weaker. Suddenly, a dirty little paper figure staggered to Qi Huan's feet and pointed in one direction with one of his remaining thin arms. Qi Huan hurriedly ran over there, and when Jun Aoyan saw this, he directly chased after him with his back.
The men had walked a long way, and finally, they saw the shadow of a man on the rock. The sand made it difficult for the three of them to breathe, especially after running for so long, and coughing non-stop. Hearing their movements, the figure didn't react. It can't be a fall, right? Qi Huan was frightened by this thought, and regardless of the smoke and dust, he roughly covered his nose and stumbled over.
The first thing he could see from the dust was a patch of gold. Lying on the ground was Garuda, who still had wings but had taken human form. When Qi Huan rushed over, the dust in this area was thinner, perhaps driven away. Garuda gasped for air, mottled blood in front of him, probably coughed up earlier. He held his forehead, red blood spilling from between his fingers. Is it an eye socket embedded in a wishful bead?
"Where is he?"
Qi Huan didn't want to care about this, he just wanted to know where Bai Ya was. The arrogant face and the sound cold who had just caught up were thinking the same.
Garuda did not answer him. He let go of the hand, and the stunned invaded Qi Huan's mind in an instant.
The blood didn't come from his eyes, but from his hands, which had been cut.
Fragments of wishful beads.
The residue mixed with the red liquid glittered gold, and the blood stain could not bury its brilliance. But it was undoubtedly in tatters, several fragments held in his hands, like a broken full moon.
Garuda suddenly clenched his hand so hard that it was completely crushed into powder. The golden powder mixed with more blood fell. The liquid that flowed shone with a pearlescent glow, like some kind of expensive and beautiful fat powder.
Qi Huan calmed down and asked, "Where is he?" ”
"Come over here!"
After Liu Shenghan was put down by Aoyan, he limped in the other direction. She seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly shouted at them. So Qi Huan and Ao Yan left the god bird who had lost their divine power and went to Sheng Han. Something suddenly broke out of the pile of stones in front of Liu Shenghan, and she took a few steps back, almost being injured by the flowing stone. Many of the stones were melted, glowing viscous lava flowed down the piles, and the ground around them was burned black.
Lingge struggled to crawl out and crawled in the direction of Garuda.
Qi Huan didn't stop her, he endured the heat and climbed up the relatively clean slope, Jun Aoyan followed. They saw a motionless Bai Ya in the sunken pit. His clothes were in tatters, and his skin was covered with armor congealed with blood and ash.
"It's still gasy, it's okay......"
Ao Yan breathed a sigh of relief slightly, but he didn't dare to relax completely. He was probably thrown directly to the ground, and when he fell, he scribbled himself with simple movements and spiritual power. Even in an unconscious state, he still clenched the scimitar tightly in both hands. Qi Huan couldn't lift him, trying to break his hand to reduce weight. Bai Ya suddenly coughed violently, and instantly regained consciousness. His hands clenched tighter as he lifted Qi Huan harder.
"I'll go, you're really tough enough!"
He coughed hard, and a little blood rushed up. He casually wiped the blood from his face, and said with a red mouth:
"You-ahem, ahem...... Ahem, you really have to worry about it all the time......"
"Don't spew blood!"
"Phew."
As he spoke, Bai Ya spat out a mouthful of residual blood.
"Did you break the wishful bead?" Ao Yan asked.
"I don't have a choice."
"No, I'm not blaming you...... Let's go out first. ”
As they helped each other to stand in front of the scarred two again, a terrifying silence filled the empty night along with the yellow sand. Occasionally, there is the sound of a rolling stone sliding from nowhere. In a short time, silence will return.
Gone are the towering peaks and the magnificent churches. No one thought that it would only happen overnight for everything to collapse into ruins with no end in sight. Many, many youkai have vanished, buried under the rubble or plunged deeper into mountain streams. The original inhabitants consisted of two dilapidated people who leaned on each other.
"Half-Demon ......"
Bai Ya staggered forward, stuck the black scimitar into the ground, straightened up, and looked down at them condescendingly. Even after hearing these two words, the two did not react at all. Perhaps, they don't even have the strength to refute.
“…… Half-demon - you are all here. ”
"What?"
Others suspect they misheard. Especially Qi Huan, the incredible four big characters are written on the face.
"No, wait, you're saying they're all half-demons? How is this possible. He seemed to be trying to convince himself, "They're the most powerful...... How can they all be half-demons? Aren't they the most hated half-demons? ”
"I thought it was strange at first." Bai Ya pointed at Ling Ge's numb face with a white scimitar, "If it is an order that is against us, she will have several chances to attack us. But she didn't, because we had one more person around us. ”
Arrogantly puzzled: "You mean Mingming?" ”
"She shouldn't have been afraid of the half-demon, but she's never done anything to him......"
"She sympathizes with him." Liu Shenghan added.
"Sympathy?"
"The empathy of the same half-demon." Bai Ya paused, adjusted his breathing briefly, and then continued, "I confirmed this in hand-to-hand combat with her...... She hides well, but as long as she gets close enough, she still shows flaws. Her demonic aura is muddy and not pure enough. Although I didn't perceive the aura of a human, she wasn't a pure, complete youkai either. And I noticed the pair of fans, too. There is about Garuda's divine power inside, and if she doesn't have a fan, she can't change back to her original form. ”
Jun Aoyan suddenly realized: "What about God...... I was wondering why she didn't go back when she fought me. I'm a mortal in the flesh, I can't bear the demon fire at all, and I'm still afraid of ......"
Liu Sheng said coldly: "So the Ruyi bead is broken, she has lost the source of her demon power, and she can't maintain the form of the demon bird." ”
"Miss Ling, I really can't figure it out. Now, you must know that your beloved adult, who is also a 'lowly species' whom he hates, is still going to be desperate for this? You must know she's a half-demon—" Qi Huan asked Garuda instead, "because you too." But why do you have to protect her? She knows you...... Is it a half-demon? ”
Garuda didn't answer, but he shook his head.
"So what? Yes and how! ”
The voice of the mausoleum was trembling. Not because of fear, but because of anger.
"You're still obsessed, and we have nothing to say. But there is one more thing I want to ask...... Jun Aoyan also took a step forward, "You can completely rely on your own strength to establish an order that belongs to the half-demons. That way you don't have to hide your identity. But you want to judge the half-demon as the lowest existence, why bother? If anyone doubts, he will speak with his strength and beat him to a convinced mouth, why do you want to make such a fuss. ”
Garuda opened his mouth slightly, blood drying up on his lips. His long, dusty hair no longer shone brightly, and his ornate robes were tattered. He paused for a moment, then finally spoke.
"You won't understand. Half-demon will not be convinced by anyone. You can trample all the opponents under your feet and establish an even more bloody order...... But people are terrible, even if the people in this area obey you, there will be endless gossip outside, and trouble will only come one by one, and there is no peace at all. What's more, a god is actually a thing that is not a human or a demon, and it is just a joke to say it. In order to elevate one side, one has to despise others—despise everything. ”
He was so calm.
“…… I know. Maybe you're right, but we still can't agree. Jun Aoyan said in a low voice.
"We don't need anybody's buy-in – and we don't need anybody's buy-in anymore."
Garuda suddenly smiled, a little tired, and a scornful contempt that had never changed. And at the same moment, there was a mocking coldness between his eyebrows, and he didn't know who he wanted to make fun of.
But soon, his expression soon softened again. He did accept the result.
"Kill or chop you. But...... Don't be embarrassed by Kalingpinga. She was a ......"
"It's not that easy." Bai Ya suddenly interrupted him, let go of the hand holding the knife, and spread it out towards him, "Where's the treasure?" What is the treasure? Hand it over first. ”
Before Garuda could speak, Lingge suddenly stood up and pushed Bai Ya away. Bai Ya didn't stand firm, and fell backwards in embarrassment, and the others hurriedly supported him. Lingge stopped in front of Garuda as if he were dead, and opened his arms.
"You are dreaming! No way! No way! ”
Bai Ya felt in a trance that instead of two bloodstained arms, she was opening a pair of bright red wings.
