The sea is like a gloomy mirror, reflecting the silhouette of the boat, with the occasional whisper of the breeze.

It is a sailless, long, cramped, uncovered boat, usually used by fishermen to catch shrimp and crabs in shallow waters, and even the most daring sailors dare not use it to challenge the sea. Chi Yu had heard the old dean describe the dangers of the depths of the sea, and even a behemoth like a heavy mast cargo ship could easily be torn to pieces. Behind the treachery often lurks calamity, and the most terrible thing is that this kind of calm night always makes young sailors take it lightly.

He cowered in the stern of the boat, staring at the misty junction between sea and sky, praying that there would be no hurricanes and rough waves behind him.

The black-robed demon spirit regarded Chi Yu as nothing since he left the port, and he steered the boat forward with a volley of his palm, faster than a fast boat with full sails, and only stopped to rest after a long time. This kind of unbelievable means, Chi Yu is no longer surprised.

The demon spirit was obviously still highly vigilant, and from time to time it would look back in the direction of the harbor, even if only scattered spots of light the size of fireflies could be seen at the end of the dark curtain.

All around is seawater, and the thick clouds in the night sky occasionally obscure the stars and the moon, and there is a dead silence, and the passage of time is almost unpalatable. Ji Yu's fear gradually calmed down, and he didn't dare to make more than a sound to disturb the legendary demon spirit that would eat people and drink blood, but he was cold and hungry, and finally couldn't hold on to falling asleep.

In the haze, a sudden panic woke Chi Yu up, as if an invisible hand was slowly clenching his heart, as if it was about to turn into a lump of mud in the next moment, and then he clearly felt that the ghost thing that had burrowed into his heart was crawling restlessly.

He screamed in fright.

The black-robed demon finally noticed Chi Yu, and he lifted his cloak and turned around, revealing a peculiar face. His forehead was high and bulging, but his eye sockets were deeply sunken, his chin was as sharp as an awl, and his hair was left in countless braids.

"Is there already a reaction...... "The demon muttered in his throat, and then looked at the direction again, he didn't pay attention to the trembling Chi Yu at all, and still said to himself, "Then the damn fire pig shouldn't chase after him again......"

Chi Yu was silent, and he didn't dare to take a breath in the atmosphere.

The wraith only glanced at him in the end, and then continued to hit the water.

The abnormal movement in his heart gradually stabilized, and Ji Yu no longer felt sleepy. It was an extremely terrifying feeling, as if at some point and so the thing would tear his heart apart at once, and he could only wait for that moment to come.

Who can wait for death with peace of mind?

Ji Yu had never thought about the meaning of the word death before, and fear was only an instinct from life, until the old dean lost his news. One day, Da Niu suddenly came back crying, saying that the old dean was dead, and Chi Yu couldn't understand his grief, but he could definitely feel that he was full of pain.

As soon as he thought of this, Ji Yu felt very depressed.

He has always lacked something more than others, such as Da Niu always telling the story of wandering in the market when he was young, and when Ji Yu went to think about it, except for his own name, everything seemed to freeze. It's like a dreamless sleep, only to wake up and find that there is nothing.

The old dean said that he had lost his memories, the images that could be remembered in his head.

So in the past few years in the orphanage, Chi Yu has slowly accumulated a lot of such pictures, and whenever he thinks about it in his spare time, he feels very happy.

What if it dies?

Chi Yu didn't dare to think about it anymore, as if a boulder was pressed on his chest, making him breathless, those beautiful memories, he didn't want to lose them no matter what.

"Where are we going?" he asked, plucking up his courage.

The black-robed demon spirit turned a deaf ear, still focusing on the matter at hand.

"Please, take this thing out!" Ji Yu puffed up, and then became cautious for fear of annoying him, "You've gotten rid of that person, haven't you......?" Nothing useful......"

The wraith turned its head with a sneering expression.

"Take it out?" he scoffed, "Unless it's a monster above ten stars, or I'll dig out your heart and liver first?"

Ji Yu didn't understand the demon spirit too much, but he understood that this cruel guy treated himself no different from the fishermen treated the fish on the board, and the struggle was in vain.

He looked around in despair, and the black-robed demon spirit let out a shriek.

I don't know how long it has been, and the sea level is gradually revealing the glimmer of dawn. Ji Yu huddled his hands and knees into a ball, he didn't think about anything anymore.

The thing that was dormant in his heart would be restless every once in a while, and he had to tense his nerves all the time. His eyes were bloodshot and his forehead was covered with sweat.

The black-robed demon spirit seemed to be sleeping, motionless for a long time.

The sun rises from the distant sea and slowly climbs overhead, its intense rays on its skin like tongues of fire.

Ji Yu was extremely tired, he looked up at the sky, the dazzling light made him lose his mind, and the will that had been holding on collapsed, and he passed out again.

This time he had a dream.

In an enclosed space, it is full of scarlet colors. The veins of the sticky walls seem to breathe, maintaining a rhythmic rhythm. In the center, there is an object that looks like an upside-down eye, but the black pupils are like living creatures, rotating slowly from end to end.

Its base is surrounded by countless veins, and it seems that everything in the entire environment is centered around it.

Ji Yu looked at this strange space from a fixed perspective, he could feel the presence of his body, but he couldn't control it.

A slender shadow suddenly appeared in Chi Yu's field of vision, crawling close to the sticky wall, its body like a snake, but with centipede-like arthropods.

Chi Yu panicked inexplicably, and the rhythm of the entire space became stronger, and the "pupils" of that "eye" rotated like a black deep-sea whirlpool.

The slender shadows moved faster and faster, becoming more and more disorganized.

Then it opened its mouth, revealing jagged fangs,

A heart-rending pain impacted Chi Yu's consciousness, and the space in front of him began to shake violently, and the black whirlpool immediately turned over like a river and a sea, filling the entire "eye".

But the slender shadow did not give up because of this, and it kept biting at the sticky wall, trying to destroy it all.

Ji Yu instinctively wanted to struggle and scream, but he could only feel the pain destroying his nerves like a storm very clearly.

When he was on the verge of collapse, the slender shadow suddenly bit through a vein, and was firmly sucked in by the gap, and then swallowed from beginning to end, teleporting along the vein channel to the central "eye". The thing wriggled and struggled frantically at first, then melted away in the darkness little by little.

The black "Hitomito" slowly returned to its original appearance, and the entire space also settled down, and the sticky walls and veins that had been damaged by the bite gradually began to heal.

Chi Yu looked at this unbelievable everything, and suddenly felt dizzy.

"Bang"!

There was a powerful tremor in his heart, and he suddenly came to his senses.

It's like a world away.

It's evening, the sea breeze is cool, and flocks of seabirds are swaying and flying in the red sky, and the horizon is slowly engulfing the afterglow of the setting sun. Compared to before, Ji Yu felt extremely relaxed and enjoyable at the moment, but there was also a feeling that he hated very much.

The feeling of trying to think about it, but always being blank, seemed to have forgotten something.

"Tsk...... It's stopped so soon!" the wraith's voice rang out.

He tilted his head, as if his neck had been twisted, and his peculiar face was half a blood-red sun, half a shadow, and the bottom of his eyes revealed a tyrannical light.

"It's still a long way, it's too boring if you don't have some fun......" he grinned grimly, and with a gentle throw of his hand in his robe, the two things landed accurately in Chi Yu's arms.

Ji Yu almost suspected that he was delusional, and his eyes widened in disbelief because the demon spirit had given him a piece of smoked meat and a small bottle of rice wine. He was already very hungry, and after the old director was gone, he and the other children in the orphanage did not have enough to eat for a day, let alone a day and a night on the sea.

But the demon spirit's words immediately made his smile freeze in delight.

"Here, stay alive, and better hold on until that thing breaks your belly, I haven't heard enough of your singing!"

There was no trace of warmth in the playful voice.

The following night was far less peaceful than the night before.

The gray sky began to rain, and the water in the boat was getting deeper and deeper. Chi Yu desperately carried water out, but it was half the effort, and the rain that had already submerged his ankles made the soles of his feet cold. And the black-robed demon spirit stood at the bow of the ship, not paying attention to this bit of wind and rain at all.

Clouds rolled over the sea in the distance, spitting blinding electric light, and thunder roared incessantly, warning outsiders with great might.

This sea is a gateway to freedom and ambition.

In the precipitation of thousands of years of confrontation between the human race and Shura, a special group of people has been washed away, who are no longer willing to unconditionally dedicate their lives and strength to the war of fate, and their ancestors, whether genius or mediocrity, finally rushed to the battlefield and died generously.

So in the endless exploration, the isolated island hidden behind the storm became an excellent pure land on earth, and they unloaded all their burdens and opened up another world.

But now, it's no longer a paradise.

Terrans, Shura, demons, everything. Racial prejudice and fateful duels are not even as good as shit here, and all everyone cares about is fists that can hit to the point of pain and death.

The black-robed demon spirit tightened his robes, ready to meet the coming storm, his face could not hide his solemnity and nervousness. The first few times he came, he had followed an adult, aboard a well-constructed rune ship, and there was no danger along the way. But there is no one in a place like Startown who can have such a big hand, and the crystallization of the talisman required to drive a ship is far beyond imagination. And those big guys with heavy masts and huge sails are undoubtedly killing themselves in such a storm, he is not an experienced sailor, let alone a big man who can split the waves with a wave of his palm, so he chose a small boat.

This sea area has shredded the dreams of countless people, and the black-robed demon spirit must show twelve points of concentration to have a chance to enjoy the sun tomorrow morning.

Approaching the edge of the storm, all you could hear was the howling of the wind and the cracking of thunder, and the rain smashed on your face like a slap in the face. Before Chi Yu got closer, he wrapped himself around like a rice dumpling with a mooring rope, hooked one of his calves through the iron ring, and his hands were also clasped, and his whole body shrunk into a ball.

In this case, that demon spirit would never care whether he lived or died, he could only rely on himself.

The boat rushed forward into the storm of death, and the black-robed demon spirit stomped heavily on the bow of the ship, and the stern of the ship was cocked into the air, and the stagnant water poured out. Chi Yu only felt that the whole person was thrown into the air, and the huge pulling force was about to tear his bones out of place, and before he could exclaim, he smashed on the board of the boat with a "bang", and almost fainted.

As soon as the hull of the ship was stabilized, a row of huge waves pressed over violently, the black-robed demon spirit hurriedly slapped his side hand to exert force, the boat rushed to the wave wall, galloped in the huge waves, and walked out at the last moment, the waves behind him crashed into the sea, a large piece of white foam was like a snow-capped mountain avalanche, and the sound of the waves faintly drowned out the thunder.

The black-robed demon spirit's whole body was already soaked, and he was still shocked into a cold sweat. He stared at the peaks of the waves in the direction of the channel like mountains and mountains, and cursed a few words fiercely.

The boat continued to rush forward, and the furious nature showed no mercy to its subordinates. Chi Yu's brain was blank, and he couldn't even care about the pain, the sea slapped again and again, drowning him, his body rushed left and right in the bumps, he was thrown up and dragged back, and the ropes and iron rings were almost stuck in the flesh.

At some point, he even lost consciousness at one point, but at this time, there was always a surging throbbing in his chest, waking his life up.

Time became a blur in the process, and finally, the wild ringing in my ears subsided, and everything slowly calmed down.

The black-robed demon spirit lay flat on the ship's board, panting for breath for the rest of his life.

"Damn, there's nothing better than being alive"

He coughed and laughed easily.
