Chapter 373: Countdown to the Ending II
On the top of Kunlun Mountain, towering buildings soar into the smoky clouds, and the snow flies all over the sky, making everything turn into a noble white, not spotted with dust.
On the altar on the edge of the cliff, a person dressed in white was standing, and if it weren't for the dark and sharp eyes, it would be almost impossible to identify the person.
He looked down with his hands, shook his head from time to time, and sighed, "Bad fate! A love word has made so many men bend their waists, why bother?"
Behind him, I don't know when the same three old men in white floated in, with silver hair and white beard, and a group of fairy wind bones.
One of them took over and said, "Red dust vulgar, why do you want to force them to see through it?"
Another person also said, "Yes, Senior Brother Wuchen, let's go back!
The last man nodded silently, but did not speak.
Wuchen shook his head and said regretfully: "If it weren't for someone from my sect, the old man wouldn't have taken a second look, but Senior Brother Yang Liu and Yue'er ......" He didn't continue, and replaced it with a long sigh.
Those three are also the elders of Kunlun Mountain, they are Jiang Ting, Yanque, and Yuan Yong, who are dustless junior brothers, plus the willow, a total of five senior brothers, representing gold, wood, water, fire and earth!
Jiang Tingren is as his name suggests, with a gentle and elegant temperament, and said quietly: "If the senior brother really can't let go, then let Yue'er come up! ”
"No!" Yan Que was a bare-faced and irascible person, he shook his head and resolutely disagreed, "The senior brother told him that the woman was just an adventure! She shouldn't have come here, she always had to go back to where she belonged, this was the destiny of heaven! What if he came, would he rather not want his own life than fight against the sky?"
"Reasonably, reasonably. Yuan Yong was expressionless and didn't like to talk, so he reluctantly expressed his opinion.
Wuchen stroked his beard and sighed again and again, "As early as a year ago, when he was secretly preparing to take the throne, I had already gone to Kyoto to look for him, but he was all about that woman, how could he listen to him? ”
"Yes!" Jiang Ting nodded, "Yue'er is not an ordinary person, and his perseverance and determination will naturally not be easily shaken, since he is here, let him come!
"That's right!" Yan Que thought about it, and it made sense, "Then let him come up! ”
"Willow too...... Hey......" Wuchen shook his head, turned around and brushed his sleeves away, and from afar, he could still hear his faint sigh, "A love word, how many people have been harmed!"
The other three glanced down the hill and waved their sleeves casually, and the fog on the steep cliff gradually lifted, revealing a narrow iron cable.
In the same way, each sighed and drifted away.
At the same time.
Chu Junyue got lost at the bottom of the mountain, he obviously followed the original path, but he always returned to the same place, he clearly understood that this was a trick by the masters, and he didn't want him to go up!
But he couldn't help but go!
Now Ning Ke is almost dying, he can't hear her breathing, he can't feel her pulse, and even her body temperature is disappearing!
If he delayed, he really couldn't keep her anymore!
"Xiao Ke'er, you hold on! You must hold on...... I will definitely save you!" Chu Junyue kissed her forehead gently, then gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
Xiao Mumu was lying on the back of the black bear, still in the position that Ning Ke had tied before, Chu Junyue almost didn't have the heart to care about him, the whole person seemed to be out of control, and he just wanted to save her!
Fortunately, the black bear silently followed, and no matter where Chu Junyue went, it followed.
Xiao Mumu probably knew what was going on, his eyes were wet, he should have cried, but he didn't cry, he just quietly hid in swaddling clothes and wept.
Even though Chu Junyue was guilty, he really couldn't be distracted to take care of it so much, so he could only input a little bit of true qi into Xiao Mumu from time to time to avoid getting cold.
Just after Chu Junyue had been wandering around the mountain for several hours, suddenly there was a gust of wind, and the fog in the mountains dispersed in an instant, and he looked up to see that the iron plank road that he had not been able to find before extended to his feet at this time.
His eyes burst into surprise, and he walked forward briskly while shouting, "Thank you, master!"
If it weren't for the above masters, he probably wouldn't have been able to go up for the rest of his life!
Where there is a way, there is hope.
Ignoring the internal injuries on his body, he used all his body to fly all the way, and it took him less than half the usual time to arrive at such a high cliff.
Looking at the familiar altar in front of him and the continuous towers not far away, he suddenly felt like a world away.
At that time, the master was reluctant to let him go down the mountain, and intended to let him inherit the master's position, but he didn't want to be here, and he got into trouble with the master and left.
Now that he is back again, he still asks the master to do so much, and I don't know if he will be willing.
Chu Junyue pursed his lips, took a deep breath, and walked towards the Que Tower with Ning Ke in his arms, and the black bear followed not long after.
There was almost no change here, and he easily found the Xuanji Palace, which was as noble and solemn as ever, and all mortals, whether they were kings or commoners, would be ashamed of themselves in this atmosphere.
Chu Junyue unconsciously lowered his head slightly, slowed down his pace and walked in, and at that time, there were already four white figures waiting in the center of the main hall, as if he expected him to come.
"Master......"
He was inexplicably in awe, and shouted in a respectful tone that he had never seen before.
The hall was empty, and his voice slowly echoed.
Wuchen stood upright, staring at him sharply, "What are you doing here?"
"Master......" Chu Junyue lowered his eyes, looked at Ning Ke's face affectionately, and slowly spoke: "The apprentice came back this time, I have something to ask for, please ...... master"
"If you save her, then you will be spared!" Wuchen waved his sleeves fiercely, there was no lack of disappointment on his face, and he said coldly: "I have warned you for the teacher a long time ago, she is just a passerby, she doesn't belong here, now is the time for her to leave, you can't stop it!"
"It's not okay to be an apprentice!, but you can, master!" Chu Junyue took a quick step forward with a pleading face.
Wuchen and even the others had never seen him look so low, and they were all a little surprised.
"Are you really like this for her?" Wuchen looked displeased, and even became angry, "Just a girl, you would rather the world than your life!
Jiang Ting sighed pitifully and persuaded: "Yue'er, don't be obsessed, she doesn't belong here, her appearance is a mistake, now that the sky wants her to leave, you should also see it." ”
"The order of heaven and earth has its own program!" Yan Que scolded solemnly, "She doesn't belong here, so she has to leave! It's useless for you to come and beg us, we will definitely not help you go against the sky!"
Yuan Yong only nodded and said mechanically: "No, no!"
Chu Junyue's eyes flashed a touch of loss, but he was unwilling to give up, he was determined to save Ning Ke, and said, "What if I go against the sky? I just want her to live! If she dies, there is no point in my existence!"
"Bastard!"
Wuchen flicked his sleeves fiercely, and a gust of wind popped out, hitting Chu Junyue's knee and forcing him to kneel.
"As the king of a country, how can you ignore the people of Li because of the personal feelings of your children!" Wuchen angrily scolded again and again, "When the teacher asked you to go down the mountain, he didn't insist on leaving you to inherit the position of the pavilion master of Xuanji Pavilion, that is, I hope you can benefit the people! And you are desperate for the sake of a mere woman! You are too disappointed for the teacher!"
He snorted indignantly and walked away.
"Master!"
The more Chu Jun wanted to catch up, the three pharaohs blocked in front of him.
"Yue'er, give up, she won't come back, she must be going back to her world. Jiang Ting patted him on the shoulder and persuaded.
Chu Junyue shook his head with red eyes, "No! I won't give up! Even if I pay any price, I won't leave her!"
"Idiot!" glared at him in disappointment, flicked his sleeves and left, not wanting to say more.
Yuan Yong only sighed and followed.
Jiang Ting sighed pityingly, he wanted to persuade Chu Junyue again, but it could be seen that he looked firm, but in the end he shook his head, turned around and left with the others.
In the main hall.
Chu Junyue knelt in place with Ning Ke in his arms like this, not moving, he was determined to ask her to come back! Not to mention his life, even if he gave the lives of many people, he would not hesitate to do it!
The four elders left and did not come back, but only sent a boy to deliver food.
Chu Junyue didn't get a drop of water, and the meals were all sent back intact.
The black bear was actually very hungry, but the more Chu Junyue didn't move the chopsticks, it didn't dare to move, and lay quietly in the corner, untying Xiao Mumu, hoping that Xiao Mumu could let Chu Junyue regain a little consciousness.
Xiao Mumu was actually very scared, this hall was very big, and it was also very cold, he was crawling on the ground, his hands and feet were stiff and cold.
He knew that his father's embrace was warm, but his father's current appearance was too terrible, and he didn't dare to go.
And the queen mother ......
He didn't know what was wrong with the queen mother, she was sleeping motionless, covered in blood, and she looked terrible. He wanted to cry very much, but he didn't dare, the hall was quiet, he was afraid that he would quarrel with his mother when he cried, and he was afraid of making his father angry.
So, he slowly crawled to the food box, took something and quickly crawled back to the black bear, eating a little for himself and feeding the black bear, and the quiet hall echoed with a slight gnawing sound, which was even more deadly.
Although Chu Junyue had his back to Xiao Mumu, he knew what was happening behind him, and he also regretted that he had no way to take care of Xiao Mumu, but he had no way to ignore Ning Ke's life and death!
Suddenly, he stood up, his body staggered, Xiao Mumu was startled and looked over, but fortunately, Chu Junyue quickly stabilized his body again, his face was solemn, and he shouted.
"Master, as long as you are willing to save her, the apprentice is willing to make a deal with you!"
