This is a small extra.

One day, An Sheng said to Yin Mo: "Do you know? I heard that there will be another self in a certain world?"

"Really?" Yin Mo was a little incredulous.

"Really, if you don't believe it, look at it. ”

An Sheng smiled evilly, his palm waving, and the light flickered.

The mirror reflects a scene......

"Let me do it, I can kill them. ”

"Go back. ”

"Why do you refuse to accept me?"

"Let's go back. ”

"You'll come to me someday. ”

"Maybe, but not now. ”

The thin young man opened his eyes, the cloudy feeling in his mind slowly subsided, raised his head to look at the gray sky, exhaled a long breath of turbid air weakly, and raised a thin white mist in the wind and snow, and continued to take stiff steps with difficulty in the continuous urging sound from behind.

......

The cold wind is howling and the snow is flying.

The night was falling from the sky, enveloping the land, and a few scattered night owls were now standing on the crooked branches of the dead wood that had emerged from the cracks in the cliffs, tilting their heads and looking left and right.

The sharp and short beak of the bird opened slightly, making a "cooing" sound, and the black and yellow mottled feathers were now covered with a thin layer of snow.

The snowflakes fell, like light goose feathers, blown by the frenzied snow wind.

Descending is a long and narrow passageway, an inconspicuous small slit between two cliffs.

A group of people dressed in ragged cloth lined up in several long columns in the wind and snow, and their footprints were carved into the thick blanket of snow.

They were handcuffed in their hands and chained with a fist-sized ball of iron tied to the ankles of their feet, dragging several slender marks through the snow.

In the blink of an eye, the trail trail was covered by the whistling snowflakes, but as you move forward, there are new traces, and the cycle repeats.

The eyes were hollow, and the body looked sickly and emaciated, which could not be hidden by the tattered clothes that were almost as thin as strips, except for a layer of dry skin hanging around the bones that looked like they were about to break, and were covered with disgusting chilblains.

His face had been frozen and stiffened, without the slightest change in expression, hanging with snow and frost, like an unconscious puppet, his lips were wrinkled together, his skin was turned up, and his soles were purple and cracked from the cold, and he walked stiffly and numbly.

The whip whipped against the flesh, making a "snap" sound, echoing through the windswept path.

"Do it all for Lao Tzu faster! If you are lazy, Lao Tzu will smoke you despicable dogs!"

A burly man in armor with neatly arranged pieces of copper vibrated with the movement of a whip and glowed in the light of the fire.

The man's face was furious at this time, and the whip in his hand was raised and struck mercilessly on the body of an old man walking slowly in front of him.

The old man fell straight down, and shook his body from side to side a few times, like a worm being trampled on.

He was wearing only a thin cloth coat, with several cracks, and the exposed skin was bruised, and the wounds that had been cracked by the whip were bleeding out.

The wound was even more visible to the bones inside.

The whip went down and knocked the old man to the ground.

The old man straightened his neck, his cheeks collapsed, his eyes were deeply sunken, and his Adam's apple rolled a few times, but he couldn't make a sound.

Seeing this, the burly armored soldier did not change his countenance, completely ignoring the old man's hideous and twisted face because of the pain, and the leather whip in his hand was ruthlessly whipped on the back of the thin and bulging bone.

The beating continued one after another, and the old man's body no longer responded.

Warm blood flowed out, staining a patch of white snow, and the wind howled.

"Come on, drag this old thing away, and go away. ”

The burly soldier kicked the old man with his foot, and when he saw that he was not moving, he smiled disapprovingly, and shouted at the back of the group.

Two of the younger soldiers immediately trotted from the rear of the group, and one of them very skillfully grabbed the chain between the handcuffs with his hands and dragged the old man's body towards the rear.

Another young soldier clasped his hands in front of his chest, his body trembled for a while, trying to dispel the biting cold, approached the burly soldier, groped out a small pot of wine the size of a palm from his bosom, handed it over, and said:

"Boss, what do you want to do when you say that the Li family wants to send so many people to the cave?"

The burly soldier, known as the "boss," took the warm wine handed over, tore open the layer of tissue paper, poured it down, shook the flask in a dashing manner, wiped the remaining liquor from his mouth, and then said to the young soldier: "Can you guess what those adults above mean? If you don't get tired of being crooked, you should grind your mouth less! Do you want to wear a suit and leather shoes like those people outside, dress up like a dog, and then do those lowly jobs?"

"No, no, no, the little ones are more mouthy. ”

The young soldier said with a sneer, and hurriedly gave himself several slaps in the face to prove his heart, glanced at the discarded wine jug on the side, and secretly swallowed his saliva.

Snow Wind is still like a raging beast roaring with all its might, trying to rob the life of this piece of heaven and earth.

The snow gradually fell heavier, and as far as the eye could see, it was all white, except for the team wriggling forward in the snow.

The young soldier rubbed his hands in front of his mouth and sighed, looking at the unkempt and dry beard on the burly soldier's face, and pursed his lips secretly.

"Little Liuzi?"

The young soldier struck a spirit, and hurriedly looked at the burly soldier with a smile, "Boss, what's the matter?"

The burly soldier just squinted slightly and stared at Xiao Liuzi without speaking.

Xiao Liuzi scratched his head, his eyes dodged, and he coughed unnaturally a few times, "That... I heard boss, you're going to start merging recently?"

"I heard it from the mouths of those eight lambs again, right? However, this time those bastards guessed correctly, Lao Tzu was preparing to start the fusion stage. ”

Seeing this, Xiao Liuzi wowed, and said adoringly: "Then after the fusion, the boss will soar into the sky!"

The burly soldier smiled, very helpful, but waved his hand and said in a very modest tone:

"How can I compare to the noble sons of those families? One by one, I have been subjected to the fusion test since I was a child, and even if I succeed, I still don't even count as a ball in front of them. ”

"Alas... If it weren't for the boss, you didn't come from a good background, how could you ......?"

Xiao Liuzi followed the words of the burly soldier, and suddenly paused, did not dare to speak further, and changed his words and said: "However, those families are not necessarily all geniuses, and there is not only one ...... in our bet this time?"

The burly soldier frowned, nodded, remembered something, and laughed:

"If you don't say it, I have forgotten the existence of that waste, and the one above has specially instructed me to 'entertain' him well, and to go, and lead the way. ”

"Okay. ”

Xiao Liuzi smiled admittently, quickly shook off the thin snow covered by the armor on his body, and walked towards the other team with an excited face, and met the soldiers who were whipping the team forward, and used his hand to make a knife shape and wipe it on the neck.

The soldiers immediately understood, and one by one raised their eyebrows and smiled.

The burly soldier held a thick leather whip in his hand, step by step, with a steady step, following behind Xiao Liuzi, a pair of tiger eyes showing a playful look.

"Painstaking mind, hard work and ......"

The boy dragged his heavy body forward, muttering in his mouth.

A big kick came and kicked the boy to the ground.

"Boss, this is the kid. ”

Xiao Liuzi shouted at the burly soldier behind him, and kicked the young man with his foot again.

"Is this kid Lin Yan?"

The burly soldier walked over, looking disdainfully up and down at the emaciated boy who had fallen on the snow.

His clothes were ragged, his body was thin, and his face was sickly pale and desolate.

Xiao Liuzi smiled, "Yes, it's him,"

Lin Yan wanted to stand up, but halfway through, he stumbled and fell down again, and then supported his body with his hands and staggered up.

With snow and frost on his face, Lin Yan's expression was indifferent, ignoring Xiao Liuzi and the burly soldiers on the side, just lowered his head and staggered towards the team again.

"Look at this appearance, even Lao Tzu can't bear to do it. ”

The burly soldier shook his head, stepped forward, grabbed the leather whip in both hands and pulled it, the whip as thick as one finger was straightened, with curved barbs on it, which was even more penetrating, and said in a loud voice: "However, I can't take the order from above as the wind in my ears......

"Smack-"

The sound of whipping continued to echo, and several people could not help but look up, only to see the boy lying in the red snow, and the burly soldier constantly whipped with the leather whip in his hand.

Those few people were immediately discovered by the soldiers who led the procession, and they were beaten again, and no one dared to look at them again.

"Let me do it. ”

The hoarse and low voice echoed in Lin Yan's mind.

Lin Yan spit out a mouthful of hot blood from his mouth, and his anger was like a gossamer, "No, ......"

"No, that's your turn?"

The burly soldier sneered, waved the leather whip, and constantly whipped Lin Yan's body.

The whistling wind could not hide the crisp throbbing.

In another place, a soldier dragged the old man's frozen corpse and discarded it haphazardly.

Several night owls swooped down from the branches that grew in the crevices of the cliffs and landed next to the corpse, pecking at the old man's body with their beaks.

The soldier put his palm in front of his mouth, sighed to keep warm, frowned at the corpse of the old man who was eaten by the night owl, and whispered: "Another one who feeds the owl, tsk......tt"

Turning his gaze to a night owl next to him, the soldier was puzzled.

"What's the matter? You brute doesn't like meat good enough?"

The night owl was several laps larger than the ones that were eating the old man's corpse, and its feathers were more colorful.

Under the soldier's ridicule, the night owl still did not gnaw on the corpse, but "giggled" and laughed.

The soldier looked at the night owl's expression that suddenly became smiling, and immediately frowned, and scolded: "Bad luck!"

I'm not afraid of the night owl barking, but I'm afraid of the night owl laughing.

"Boom—"

A few muffled noises came, and the soldier was alert, looked at the sound, and immediately widened his eyes.

"It's... Avalanche ......"

A few years later......

"Whew-"

It was still gray outside the window, and the cool breeze of the night blew the thin paper window, and there were a few small cracks on it, and the wind poured into the house from there.

The house was surrounded by four walls, except for a small, old wooden bed with a fluffy dirty cushion in the corner opposite the window.

The owner of the bed sat up, and with the act of getting up, the wooden bed shook and creaked, like the weak and mournful cry of a ninety-year-old man who was crippled and sick.

"Do you want me to sleep on the floor like this?"

Lin Yan sat on the edge of the bed and said, rubbing his eyes, and put on the rubber slippers on the ground whose soles were broken, and the patterns on them were worn and couldn't see the appearance clearly.

Pressing the shaking bed board to tell it to stop, Lin Yan walked to the slightly crooked wooden door, first held it up slightly with his palm to avoid hitting the old threshold, and then slowly opened.

But even with such care, it is inevitable that the wooden door still has to be called a few times.

"Is it the fourth watch?"

Lin Yan walked out of the door, looking at the dim night in the sky, somehow, not even the scattered starlight appeared today, only the lonely crescent moon hung in the night sky.

Walking cautiously, there is a sandy beach outside the door, and not far away is the endless sea, vast and mysterious. And in the faint light of the night, it was really difficult to see the movement under his feet, and Lin Yan was wary of the unfriendly guy who could rush out from under the sand at any time.

In this way, he walked to the seaside, the sea water overflowed from time to time and then retreated, Lin Yan squatted down in one place, picked up the wet sand with both hands, and pulled out a round thing from below.

Holding the round bead in his hand, he walked to the other side, and in the same way, he pulled out the same bead from under the sand and held it in his hand. Both beads were drawn with a fine net that glowed white under the faint moonlight, a wire net made of tendons of a fish, which was very tough.

Stepping on the soft sand, Lin Yan bent down slightly, so that he could better see the sand under the night to avoid danger. Walking towards the sea in front of him, the water that covered his ankles was extremely cold, as if there were silver needles drilling into his bones.

"Four watches, between the tides, sleepless nights......"

Muttering some strange terms in his mouth, Lin Yan held the two round beads in his right hand, stood in the seawater, stretched out his left hand to reach out, and groped for the third bead. Then, there was only one last direction left, and in front of a zhang, there was a faint glow in the moonlit water.

A gust of wind blew, and the sea began to fluctuate, and the breeze that blew across the sea carried a faint salty smell.

"Ahem. ”

Lin Yan coughed lightly twice, he was still very disgusted with those salty sea breezes, he had been like this since he was a child, Rao had been living here for several years but still couldn't get used to it.

The last bead was also found, holding four beads in both hands, Lin Yan began to walk towards the beach, and the beads were involved in a large net to catch some fish in the sea.

The men in the net were not restless, and began to struggle as they were pulled up to the beach, trying in vain to break through the net that bound them.

Lin Yan relied on the faint moonlight to look at the results in the fishing net, there were many slender small fish covered with silver scales, about the size of a three-year-old child's arm, and the fishing net was full of these fish.

"Hopefully it can be sold for a good price. Lin Yan said that the fish in the fishing net were full of fish, called silver moon fish, and whenever the moonlight reflected on the sea in the middle of the night, they would gather in groups and gather at the edge of the beach, and they were very persistent in the moonlight.

Although the price is cheap, with so much volume, it can be made up, thanks to the moon tonight.

"Rustling ......"

Dragging the fishing net back, Lin Yan grabbed the four beads and wrapped the net around his arm a few times, for fear that if he accidentally fell into the hole, these silver moon fish would drill into the sand, and if they ran out, he would not be able to catch them.

Somehow, although it was the fruit of a bumper harvest, there was still a sense of uneasiness in his heart, Lin Yan quickened his pace, and on this dark beach, the moon in the night sky hid behind a cloud unkindly.

It was so dark that I couldn't see all around.

Lin Yan suddenly felt that the beach seemed to be shaking slightly, his heart was shocked, he gritted his teeth, and put the net on his shoulder, and the heavy weight bent his body down.

Hurriedly running forward, Lin Yan didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, his nerves were tensed, the vibration of the beach became more and more obvious, and his body was rising and falling.

"Shhh

The unique breathing sound of snakes came into Lin Yan's ears, and when he turned his head, two red dots were flashing in the darkness, staring straight at him, and the huge body under the night was constantly writhing.

In the blink of an eye, the big snake chased after him, and a strong fishy smell rushed straight to his nose, Lin Yan felt that his body suddenly became heavy, his head was heavy, and his whole person was shaky.

Biting his tongue fiercely, blood immediately splattered out of his mouth, Lin Yan held his breath and ran desperately.

"Bang!"

The sudden weight of his back made Lin Yan fall to the ground, and before he could stand up, a cold touch immediately wrapped around his body, "Hiss-"

Looking back, it was a pair of scarlet snake eyes, in front of him, the thick snake body of the bucket rolled up Lin Yan, the snake's head was raised high, staring at Lin Yan condescendingly, and the scarlet and slender snake letter in his mouth was constantly expanding and contracting.

The moon, which had been hiding behind the clouds, jumped out at this time, sprinkling the white moonlight and reflecting it.

Only then did Lin Yan see that the big snake with the thickness of the bucket was covered with dark green scales, slightly protruding, and the triangular snake head the size of his own two heads was looking at him with interest.

His chest was dull and out of breath, and cold sweat continued to break out on Lin Yan's forehead, looking at the arrogant snake head above, he didn't dare to struggle.

The fishing net was still tightly squeezed in his hand, and he could feel that the silver moonfish in it was struggling violently, which made the strength of the snake's entanglement a little heavier.

The force of the entanglement almost crushed his body.
