Volume 1 Journey to the Wasteland Chapter 297 Farewell
The fog, the gray patch, envelops everything in this world. It's a dead world, and the scenery here is similar to hell, but it's not hell.
There is an old bridge inscribed with the word "Naiha", and there is a clear river under the bridge that also does not make the sound of running water. This is an ancient road with no name, a road that seems to never see the end.
And this place where only a woman surnamed Meng cooks soup is actually the most beautiful place in the world that Bai Susu identifies as such. At this moment, Bai Ye was silently walking on the road, with a little white-haired girl sitting on his shoulder, followed by a brightly dressed and unusually handsome young man.
But Bai Ye didn't pay too much attention to the two of them at the moment, but chose to immerse himself in his inner world, silently thinking about some things.
Of course, his footsteps will not stop, he still has to keep walking, follow the guidance of Crispy, and get out of this land that is almost like hell but not hell.
But now he wondered why Crispy was the best place in the world.
"The wind of the heavenly dome can blow away a fallen leaf, but it cannot blow away the butterfly with deep blue wings, because the power of obsession does not lie in submission. ”
"The flames of hell can consume all the dead, but it cannot incinerate the butterfly with deep eyes, for the power of the vastness does not lie in sin. ”
............
Thinking about it, this ballad that had been circulated during the flood period sounded in his mind again. It wasn't the first time the ballad had popped into his mind since he set out on his way away.
But now, when this question came to his mind once again and it happened to appear at the same time, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Bai Ye's mind.
Perhaps, this is hell...... Or maybe it's just a place with deep ties to hell. But the most beautiful place that Crispy said should indeed be a real hell.
As for why she used the inheritance method of their clan but was not able to go to the real hell, it is a puzzle. However, according to Bai Ye's guess, time has passed, everything is changing, and everything is declining.
As for whether hell will disappear or change with the times, no one knows. And Bai Susu's ability to come here may also be a coincidence.
But fortunately, Bai Crispy was able to bring him here and knew how to go back. Otherwise, he would really have a headache in the white night, and he finally found the Pure World Gu, in case he was trapped here again, then he really couldn't cry.
And now, he turned his gaze to the Pure World Gu that had walked in front of him at some point, that is, the snow-white one-horned fairy he saw.
At this moment, it had received the mysterious liquid similar to a sapphire in Bai Crisp, and it had regained its former vitality. To be honest, this result was something that Bai Ye didn't expect at the time.
But after walking on this road, Bai Ye has already encountered too many results that he did not expect. And now, after communicating with Bai Shushu's thoughts, Bai Ye has understood what it was like at that time.
In fact, that mysterious liquid was just a drop of blood that Bai Crispy had actively condensed. Her blood is at most a slightly extraordinary cure for other creatures, and it is basically useless except for some benefits for the growth and recovery of blood qi.
But for the Pure World Gu, a drop of her blood was the best life-saver. According to what Bai Susu herself told Bai Ye, the power of her bloodline had guided her, saying that the Pure World Gu had a great relationship with their lineage.
And it was precisely because of this great origin that he let go of this Pure World Gu that Bai Ye encountered that he had a chance to survive in this place.
According to this Pure World Gu, it said that this place was very likely to be a broken corner of the world of the previous era, not particularly large, and it was probably just a fragment.
But even so, this is not a place where it can come in when it says it can come in, and it can go out when it says it goes. As a result, this Gu Clan's most bizarre Gu Clan, who had no other skills than saving the dead and helping the wounded, was never able to go out again after entering here.
At first, it thought it was nothing, but it was just to live here forever, and it just happened to be quiet. But after a long time, it began to panic, because by that time, it was no longer as vigorous as it had been.
For monks and some naturally powerful beings, there are times when time is not terrible. But sometimes, time is a talisman, maybe you can live long enough, but as it passes, one day, you will also pass away with it at some point.
After witnessing it and instantly understanding its current situation, it also thought about getting out of this place in some way, but its escape history did not last long.
Contrary to what it had expected, the confinement capacity of this land was far beyond its imagination. When another long period of time passes, it is no longer as vibrant as it used to be.
Here, its vitality is limited, so to speak, a little less with a little. But what it is facing is a death that seems to be far, long, far away before it comes, and the pain of facing death that is coming.
This place is different from Miao Jiang, and it is also different from the Wasteland...... This is a dead land, where there will be no living. It is a pure world Gu, devouring other people's injuries is its way of survival, and it can be said that the injuries on other people's bodies are its food.
From that point of view alone, it can actually live for a long time. But it backfired, if it lived here, it wouldn't live as long as its predecessors in the clan.
Because there are no living here, there is no possibility of the injured. Although the environment here was not as terrifying, weird, and terrifying as the place Bai Ye had encountered before, it was enough for the Pure World Gu to perish in the ups and downs of the years.
And what supported it through this period of time was a bowl of thick soup from a woman surnamed Meng. The soup seemed strange to it, and it could suppress the body's failure for a short time...... However, even if this is the case, the soup cannot be used as a long-term means to ensure its survival.
The passage of time had left it lost in the endless gray mist, and it was one of many beings in this world who were willing to give up their lives so easily.
It didn't want to die, although it was a special creature, it was a terrifying Gu worm with a great reputation in that era...... But none of those things represent its original intention. In the past, it also had its original intention, but to this day, it has seen through some things, and it has lost some things because of it.
Originally, it was really about to give up hope, and it felt that it had no chance of survival. But the appearance of Bai Shushu, a girl who was only about four or five years old, broke the dead end in its heart.
The blood in its body tells it that other people's blood is more than higher than it, and even when it comes into contact with this little girl face to face, it will feel a sense of guilt for no reason, as if it is sorry for someone somewhere.
But that drop of blood, its whole body is dark blue, like a gem, and like a piece of rare jade...... It's mellow, and it's incredibly alluring to its dying being.
So after several trade-offs, he decided to agree to the request of this little girl who was extremely mysterious to him, and help her to do something, whether it succeeded or not, and did her best.
"Hey, I said, no matter how many of you are the four great Gu gods of the Gu Clan, you actually left with me like this?"
At this moment, Bai Ye suddenly spoke. Through his own contemplation and the exchange of thoughts with Bai Shushu, he figured out a lot of things and knew the truth of some things. In this way, he felt a lot more comfortable.
So on this seemingly endless long road, he simply spoke directly, laughing at the young man who had been transformed into a pure world Gu. Of course, he didn't do it for anything else, just to have some fun and relax.
"Cut, I'm happy to ...... It's good that I can come out, don't you understand, besides, it's not a shame to follow the little master's side. ”
The voice of the Pure World Gu sounded, and it was no longer hoarse and vicissitudes. However, Bai Ye turned his head sideways and looked straight at it. However, what Bai Ye saw was a young man with a strange face, and it was obvious that although it was subordinate to Bai Sushu, it was still very unconvinced by Bai Ye.
If it weren't for that, I'm afraid it wouldn't have looked at the white night with a slightly provocative indifferent look. However, Bai Ye didn't plan to deal with this guy in this regard, after all, in Bai Ye's opinion, these were just small things.
As long as he can bring this product back to the wasteland and let it obediently go to Ye Qingyan's side to treat his injuries, Bai Ye will already be satisfied. As for some other things, Bai Ye really doesn't seem to have too much for the time being.
But the next moment he couldn't help but want to laugh was that even though the young man turned into a Gu worm looked like seven disagreed and eight angry at him, and he loved to ignore him, as long as his eyes touched Bai Sushu's eyes, it was another story.
The current Bai Ye is quite touched by the four Gu gods of the Gu clan. In his opinion, this Meteor Immortal Gu was a foodie, although he was carrying a juvenile now, but its foodie attribute had already been revealed in front of Bai Ye.
And if you look at it now, this Pure World Gu that he finally found is not a foodie, but he is a greedy person who is afraid of death, otherwise how could it recognize a little girl who has no special "big" lethal ability as the master with only a few encounters, and respectfully call her the little master.
"I still won't talk to you, I think you like her a lot, how about you let you have something to say to her?"
"Hey, then it goes without saying that this is my little master, my new master. What she said was naturally the law that bound me, and how could you understand how sacred she was to me?"
"That's it, if you have anything, just go directly to your little master. But as for me, I still have to remind you, my daughter is still young, and sometimes she may have a bad temper, so you must not look for me when the time comes. ”
"Nonsense, of course I won't look for ......"
"Uh......"
............
At this moment, the air suddenly became deathly silent. And unlike the white night with a smile on his face, the Pure World Gu at this moment, he was almost going to cry directly.
When he drank soup at the woman surnamed Meng just now, he didn't pay too much attention to the words of these two people. Because it didn't think from the beginning that this land would be visited after so long.
For a long time, the people who have visited this land, to be honest, have not seen many of them in the Pure World Gu. That number can even be counted on ten fingers when it was transformed into a human form.
It was also planning to drink a few bowls of soup to quench its thirst, and find a place to stay and wait for death, after all, its life was almost at the end of its life.
Of course, the reason why it went was actually to say goodbye to the woman. Although both of them are creatures, but in the face of the tempering of the years, it has lost its original vigorous vitality, and the woman seems to have lost only her voice and memory.
At that time, it already knew that it would not live long. So it used the last of its strength to make its way through the fog when it was dying, and it longed to see her again.
The reason why it wants to see this side is not because of some kind of affection, but simply gratitude. In such a long time, it has also seen several passers-by who came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
But in the end, no matter how long it took, when it came back, it could still see the small stall by the bridge and the woman surnamed Meng boiling soup by the stall.
The relationship between the two beings is not a friend, but for a long time, they seem to have become each other's companions.
But it never thought that it was about to die, and it just wanted to come out and say goodbye...... But that's it, its farewell thought really became a farewell, because it met a father and daughter who went out to "travel".
It's just that this time it's that he's really leaving......
Is this the result of what it has been waiting for for a long time?
At the same time, whether it was Bai Ye or Bai Su, or the Pure World Gu who had made up his mind to leave here, he didn't know that in front of an ancient bluestone bridge, on the edge of a silent river, on a small stall that had been weathered for a long time, there was a figure standing for a long time.
At that moment, she chose to put down the ancient soup spoon in her hand, and she just stood on the edge of her small stall. She looked quietly, silently at the wooden table, and at the wooden bench next to it.
Whether it's a table or a stool, there is dust on it that hasn't been completely wiped off, and there are places that have been wiped off. They are distributed in different ways, but they are born in patches.
But for the woman, the dust was the old dust of time. It was small, but it had witnessed the passage of the years, and she was looking at it now. However, whether it was to Bai Ye, or to the Pure World Gu who had already left and embarked on the road, what she said was the truth.
She had amnesia, really amnesia. She couldn't remember what she used to do, and she didn't care about it, but she still remembered her last name.
But that so-called indifference, that was in the past. Now she was gazing at the stars that shimmered brightly in the sky, and for the first time in her eyes, they became magnificent and gorgeous.
Her face was still cold, but now that she looked at the stars, she suddenly felt that she should have a memory. The man was gone, and she was the only one left here, but this time she didn't want to forget.
Because she suddenly believed that the man was just gone, and he never left. Maybe one day, that person will come back, and at that point, she doesn't want to be left with no memory again.
