1 He Walked to the Abyss Chapter 159: Mutation

Bidding farewell to the old man of the goblin clan, Chen Ming wanted to thank Tarui and return to the basin, but he looked around, but he didn't see Tarei, so he had to give up and leave the goblin village directly.

Halfway through, Chen Ming suddenly stopped, glanced at the grass beside the road, wiped a touch of Jinhui, and said helplessly, "Come out, Miss Xuelei." ”

Jin Hui trembled slightly, and an extremely petite girl walked out with a red face and looked at him timidly.

Chen Ming sighed and asked, "Why did you come with me?"

"Grandpa......"

The girl was obviously not proficient in the language of the outside world, and stammered, "Grandpa asked me to ...... Follow you......"

"The Elder?"

Chen Ming suddenly smiled and said, "You really don't have to be so afraid, I won't hurt you." ”

Perhaps sensing Chenming's sincerity, Xue Lei nodded vigorously, but still didn't dare to look at him.

"In that case, let's go. ”

Shaking his head helplessly, Chen Ming turned around and walked forward, but his pace slowed down a lot.

Two figures, one tall and one short, came to the edge of the basin, looking at the high cliff, Chen Ming asked, "Do you want me to help you go down?"

"No...... No, you don't!"

Xue Lei shook her head and slowly climbed down the corner of the cliff, Chen Ming was a little speechless, but she didn't say anything, she jumped on the cliff and landed firmly in the basin, while the girl was still hanging there in distress, not daring to go up or down.

Looking at the girl's movements, Chen Ming was a little ridiculous, "Is this not for my help?"

After waiting for half an hour in horror, the girl finally landed on the ground, standing there trembling with her weak legs and a pale face.

"Forehead ......"

Chen Ming was a little embarrassed, although she didn't help her by herself, but she really didn't help her, but she was a little unkind.

After a long breath, Xue Lei straightened up and looked at the basin in amazement, it was clear that this was her first time here.

"Let's go, and take you to my companions. ”

Chen Ming smiled slightly, led Xue Lei to the edge of the lake, and shouted at the vast lake, "Drake, I'm back." ”

The lake water shook violently, and a dragon head like a water monster was drilled, and the hideous appearance suddenly startled Xue Lei, and she hurriedly hid behind Chen Ming.

"Can you not be so surprised every time?"

Chen Ming pursed his lips helplessly, and then said to the girl, "This is my companion, his name is Drake, don't worry, we won't hurt you." ”

"Hmmm......"

The girl nodded, but the little hand that grabbed the corner of Chenming's clothes was still trembling slightly.

No matter where it is, the night is always so quiet, and all around is the faint roar of the beast, intertwined with the crackling sound of the campfire, like a symphony.

Living in the abyss for thousands of years, Xue Lei knows the life here very well, of course, what can be eaten and what cannot be eaten is also clear, and because of this, Chen Ming enjoyed a feast of all meat.

The small body, the amount of food is also very small, after eating a small piece of barbecue, Xue Lei no longer eats, but lies on the back of the demon dragon, looking at the same pitch black.

After a short period of communication, the girl's courage has also become a lot bigger, and she is no longer so afraid of this huge demon dragon with a large body but a gentle temperament.

"Hey, Chenming, tell me about the outside world, can you?"

Lying on the back of the dragon, Xue Lei asked with a smile, "Listen to grandpa, the outside world is very exciting." ”

"It's really wonderful. ”

Chen Ming muttered while nibbling on the barbecue, "The sky outside is not like this side, but like this basin, but those stars are more gorgeous than flowers and plants, there is magic outside, like brilliant fireworks, it is a momentary bloom, and it is also a short eternity." ”

"To put it so ambiguously, it's not half as exciting as my grandfather's. ”

Xue Lei turned her head and looked at the young man, her eyes flashing, "If, I mean if, you can get out of this world, please take me with you." ”

"Why?"

Chen Ming was puzzled, "Life is comfortable here, there is no strife, it is safe to stay here, why do you want to leave?"

Xue Lei asked rhetorically, "Then why did you leave?"

"We?"

Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, and said, "We are used to living outside, we are used to magic, we are used to war, we are also used to desire, and our family and friends are outside, these ties do not allow us to stay here." ”

"I want to see the stars, I want to see magic. ”

Xue Lei smiled, "I want to see the excitement outside, the long life and comfortable life can't bring me what I want, I want to leave here, even if it's dangerous, but at least it won't be so boring." ”

"Sometimes, there's nothing wrong with being boring. ”

After eating and drinking, Chen Ming jumped on the dragon's back and lay down next to Xue Lei, "Pure goblins can't survive outside for a long time, if you want to survive, you must have desires, it's a pity, I can't see any desires in you." ”

Xue Lei smiled and said, "If you want to go out, it is my first desire, I have already told my grandfather, this time I will go to the other side, and I will go with me." ”

"No way!"

Chen Ming flatly refused, "This is too dangerous, you helped me, I must not let you enter the danger again." ”

"If you want to get it, you have to pay first. ”

Xue Lei said, "Although you may not be able to get it if you pay, but if you don't pay, you will never get it, and if I want to go out, I am ready to give everything, even if all this is my life." ”

β€œ......”

Impressed by Xue Lei's anticipation, Chen Ming was silent for a moment and said, "I hope you don't regret your decision today." ”

"I won't regret it!"

Xue Lei smiled brightly, she sat up, and said, "Even if you regret it, it's a matter for the future!"

"Naive girl......"

Looking at this goblin who was obviously a hundred times bigger than himself, Chen Ming smiled bitterly and muttered, "Endless regret will give birth to endless desires, and eventually pollute your soul, and when you want to return here, you will find that there is no place for you here." ”

......

In the next few days, Xue Lei took Chenming and the dragon to visit this huge world, which I don't know if it was man-made or natural, although the space here is much smaller than the vast hell, but the life in it is not less than that from the outside world.

Countless creatures that Chenming and Drax had never seen before appeared in front of them, huge one-legged elephants, four-winged flying fish, and even scallops walking on land......

But when they came to the end of what the old man said, they were rendered by a thick ominousness.

"There, that's what you're talking about?"

Standing on the edge of the grassland, Chen Ming's brows were tightly knit, and there was a trace of caution in his words, and it was only now that he understood why the old man of the goblin clan wanted to stop him from going.

"This feeling is ten times more evil than the most evil existence in hell, and it is more than ......"

Looking at the world shrouded in black mist, Chen Ming suddenly felt fear in his heart, even in the face of the King of Despair, An Mixiu, he was not afraid, at this moment, there was a trace of the urge to retreat.

"We have all been deceived by the illusion of peace in the goblin world, and mistakenly believe that the abyss is nothing more than that......"

Drex licked the corners of his dry mouth and said hoarsely, "God knows how lucky we were, we didn't fall into that world......"

Xue Lei, who knew what they were afraid of, said, "Actually, the other world was not like this from the beginning. ”

"Isn't that so?"

Chen Ming was slightly stunned and said, "What was that original?"

"I don't know the specifics. ”

Xue Lei said, "But Grandpa once said that a long time ago, the other side was the same land of life as our land, but then some changes occurred, and all the lives living there were transformed into evil existences, and they were also imprisoned there, and they could not enter this world at all. ”

"Captivity?"

Drex asked, "Who imprisoned them?"

"I don't know, grandpa didn't say. ”

Xue Lei shook her head and said, "I only know that the green ghost there was originally an intelligent life in that world, and after transforming into a green ghost, every time it appears, it will carry a black mist and hide itself. ”

"Black Mist?"

Chenming's eyes flashed with surprise, the green ghost that Xue Lei described, where he seemed to have seen it, when he first left the MΓΆbius Ring.

"If the green ghosts there can't enter this world, then the green ghosts that we eat ......"

Thinking of something extremely probable, Chen Ming's face was extremely ugly, "It turns out that Infinity has not stopped running, their zero has changed in the wrong direction from the beginning!"

"What are you talking about?"

Unable to understand what Chen Ming said, Drex and Xue Lei looked at him at the same time, "What infinity, what transformation?"

"No, nothing. ”

Chen Ming shook his head, turned around and said, "Let's stop here today, let's go back first, although the road ahead is dangerous, we have to go after all." ”

"Hmm. ”

One man and one dragon nodded, and together with Chenming, returned to the goblin village.

Seeing off Drake, Chenming came to Xue Lei's house again and met the old man.

"Elder, can you tell me how the world on the other side came to be?"

Kneeling in front of the old man, Chen Ming asked in a low voice, "Did the person who created you leave a way to get out?"

"Everything will be known when you go there. ”

The old man's eyes were inexplicable, and he laughed at himself, "As for the way to get out, if the creator had left for us, I would have left a long time ago." ”

"Since you didn't stay, then why did you let Xue Lei follow us on an adventure?"

Chen Ming frowned and asked, "Or did you have the idea of sending her to death?"

"Clever alien boy, why did you come to ask me when you have already guessed the answer?"

The old man sneered, then shook his head helplessly, and said, "Forget it, I'll confirm your conjecture for you, you're right, I really want Xue Lei to die, before she transforms into a green ghost." ”

"You do!"

Chen Ming's pupils constricted, although he already had an answer in his heart, but the old man said it himself, which still shocked him, "When I first came to this world, I met the first green ghost, it should have come out of the goblin village, right?"

"Have you already met him?"

The old man was surprised, and then sighed, "That's indeed from here, and it's the first green ghost to convert......"

He stood up and said slowly, " The great creators created countless worlds like ours here, at the beginning of the world, they fabricated the prototype with their own hands, and gave infinite possibilities, but even they could not let this infinity stop, from the heyday, the world will go into decline, countless lives began to change, evil, dark, terrifying, and finally bring the end, and the only thing that can stop this is destruction, but they are kind, but they are always unwilling to destroy their own works, so one world after another began to decay, they isolated these decayed worlds to prevent the continuation to other intact worlds, and the abyss, is the desperate zone where these worlds are pieced together. ”

"Young stranger, you are lucky. ”

The old man looked at Chen Ming and said with a smile, "Because what you have come to is a world that has not decayed, or rather, a world that is about to enter a period of decay. ”

"Is there really nothing you can do to stop this from happening?"

Chen Ming said bitterly, "Why do they still stubbornly create it when they know that the world will end in such a way?"

"I've been looking for these answers since I was born. ”

The old man's face was flat, and he said, "Sadly, I can't stop their transformation, and I can't speculate on the creator's thoughts. ”

Chen Ming asked again, "According to you, the decay period is gradual, so why are you so eager to kill Xue Lei?"

"Because the first person to change was Xue Lei's father, my child. ”

The old man leaned and said, "A thousand years ago, he became this kind of man-eating monster, although I was reluctant, but I still exiled him, and once the transformation starts, it will not be able to stop, starting from the closest people, we will all become monsters, but time, but not sure." ”

"It seems to be free and comfortable, but in fact, it is already doomed to a tragic end. ”

Chen Ming got up and looked at the old man with pity, "You are the toys of the creator, imprisoned in this world waiting for the end, but unfortunately, I have no way to save you." ”

"Kind outsiders. ”

The old man smiled, "If in the end, you can't leave, be sure to kill Xue Lei, if you are lucky enough to find a way to leave, I beg you, take that child out of the abyss, don't come back here." ”

"Honorable Elders, whether it is the abyss or hell, your prayers and despair can be heard. ”

Chen Ming slowly bent down and said softly, "I took your request." ”

......

Leaving the goblin village, Tatsunami returned to the basin, but saw the dwarf Xue Lei, riding on the dragon, swimming on the surface of the lake, smiling slightly, and walking over.

"Chenming!"

Seeing the boy return, Xue Lei waved excitedly, swam to the shore with Drake, jumped off the dragon's back, and the girl asked curiously, "Did Grandpa tell you the answer you wanted?"

Chen Ming's eyes dimmed for a moment, then he reached out and patted the little girl's head, and said with a smile, "He is an elder worthy of admiration. ”

"Of course!"

Standing up with a small chest that was not very big, Xue Lei said proudly, "My favorite is grandpa, after my father left, my grandfather grew up with me!"

"Did your grandfather tell you where your father was?"

After asking this sentence, Chen Ming regretted it a little, opened his mouth, and wanted to change the topic, but was interrupted by the girl's voice, "Grandpa said that Dad has left here and gone to the outside world!"

"Wise Elder. ”

With a secret sigh in his heart, Chen Ming smiled, "When we go out, one day you will see your father." ”

"Well, I've always believed it!"

......

After Chenming returned, they began to hunt on a large scale, because no one knew what would happen in that unknown world, and they needed to be fully prepared.

They were busy until late at night, when they slowly stopped to rest.

When Xue Lei and Drax fell asleep, Chenming, who couldn't sleep, left the lake and came to the waterfall.

"The more times like this, the more I hope that the Black Rabbit will come back......"

Looking at the silver-white waves, Chen Ming's eyes drooped, all along, with the company of the black rabbit, he didn't even need to think about how to go next, but now the road is only left for him to grope by, and as long as one step is wrong, then they will also fall into a point of no return.

Standing in a daze for a while, Chen Ming took out the "Magic Book of Dusk" for a long time, the yellowed pages, but let him have a sense of peace, I don't know if it's an illusion, on the page, he can always smell a familiar fragrance, that belongs to a unique fragrance that belongs to a person.

In the early morning, the two who were ready to ride the purple-black dragon over the basin.

As he passed by the goblin village, Tatsunami asked, "Why don't you go down and say goodbye to the villagers and your grandfather?"

"The words of goodbye were already said yesterday. ”

Xue Lei said with a smile, but the reluctance in her eyes was still pervasive, "The way we goblins say goodbye is a little different from yours, the day before we leave, we will start to say goodbye, because we think that when we leave, we will always travel with sadness, and we will always leave sadness for our loved ones, so we will never say goodbye when we leave." ”

"That's a good idea. ”

Chen Ming smiled, "It is precisely because I know that I may never see each other again in the future, so I can't show sadness and reluctance before leaving, the wisdom of the goblin is something that life in hell can never surpass." ”

"Huh. ”

Knowing that it was a false praise, but it still made the girl happy, she embarked on a strange journey alone, she originally had a trace of sadness and hesitation, but at this moment, it has disappeared in Mier.

And as they spoke, the darkness on the other side gradually appeared in front of them, and the huge demon dragon fell from the sky and stopped at the place where they stayed last night.

"For the rest of the road, we still walked forward, Drake's goal was too big, and it was easy to be exposed in the sky. ”

Holding Xue Lei and jumping off the dragon's back, Chen Ming's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.

"Let's go!"
