Chapter 392: Instinct 6
We came together, and the leprosy wrapped the invisible thread around us, and then the six of us, in different directions, flew again, and after more than ten minutes all returned, but since yesterday I have noticed that the edge of darkness is jagged and irregular.
Leprosy closed his eyes and was calculating, and after a while, he opened his eyes and told us that the world, sure enough, had shrunk again, and was only eighteen miles in radius.
"What to do? At this rate, it would only take ten days for the world to disappear completely. Heimian said, swallowing wine and covering her forehead, still looking irritable, and there was a burst of chirping next to her, it was gluttony, and she began to eat the little tree again.
Suddenly, Swallow rushed over, grabbed the glutton, and stopped her from eating the little tree.
"Don't eat any more, you take a good look."
As she spoke, she grabbed the gluttony and led her to the small tree she had eaten yesterday, and then stretched out a hand, squatted on the ground, and picked up the leaves, and in an instant, we all saw it.
Yesterday, I didn't even let go of the roots, and the small tree that I ate was already dark under the leaves, about a meter wide in diameter, and the edges were irregular jagged, and then I swallowed the wine and stretched out my hand and touched the black place.
"Don't eat any more, maybe something?" Swallowing wine said suspiciously, gluttony nodded.
"What can be done to delay it?"
The strange old man said a word, and Suzaku appeared on my right shoulder.
"It's time to eat." As he spoke, the wings of the Vermilion Bird on his back opened again, and everyone came over helplessly, and each took off a piece of feathers and ate it.
For a whole day, we didn't do anything, we didn't talk much, and everyone's face showed a grimness, tonight, it was the first half of the night for the black face, and the second half of the night for leprosy.
The next morning, when we got up, we began to fly in different directions, and when we returned, it turned out that today was even more exaggerated, and there were only twelve miles in radius.
"At this rate, I'm afraid that in less than three days, we will be finished."
Swallowing wine and talking, everyone looked solemn.
"Tonight, when I go to the border, I always feel like something."
Suzaku muttered, swallowing wine and looking at it.
"Don't look at me, I don't know, but I did feel something strange this morning on the edge."
At noon, we fell asleep, because the world has been completely distorted, we can't feel anything, and we don't finally have to worry about our desires coming.
Even if we can't sleep, we have to force ourselves to fall asleep, and tonight we decided to stay in our respective directions, and take a good look at what darkness is coming over and swallowing the world little by little.
When night came again, everyone seemed energetic, and we each passed in different directions.
I flew to the edge of the place, slowly landed on the ground, watched quietly, for a long time, there was no change, but I was a little suspicious, after all, in such a dark and vast place, my naked eye may not be able to distinguish the process of the disappearance of this world.
"Don't worry, there is nothing unusual at the moment."
Suzaku said a word, and I sighed.
"You did feel something this morning, didn't you?"
"I can't say it, I have a bad feeling in my heart."
I laughed, and Suzaku stared at me in surprise.
"I didn't know a lot of things, but after coming to this place, I feel that I understand a lot of important things, how entangled I used to be in the past, I have always been, I don't know, how terrible it is to be bound by the past."
"Yes, my power will change according to the user's state of mind, and now, your state of mind has stabilized, not like before, thinking about death, so you can't bear the power after Nirvana at all."
"By the way, if I use your power now, will I still get burns?"
"Not for the time being, I said, your state of mind has changed, Qingyuan, so, I have returned to the state before Nirvana, this power will not hurt you, blame the old man that guy said, we like to bewitch people's hearts, in fact, no, in the real sense, people, are bewitched by themselves, we are just because people's moods are different, maybe decent, maybe evil, and before you, has begun to go to the dark area, so, the stronger the power, yourself, will accelerate death."
I nodded as if I didn't understand, the things that had been gloomy in my heart for a long time were gone, and it was more of the motivation to keep moving forward, even now, there was no despair in my heart, I had promised Lan Ruoxi to go back.
"Hey, I hope that one day, you can help the people of Huangquan, they have given a fate."
I sighed, looked at Suzaku, it shook its head, and suddenly, its gaze became unusually sharp, and then turned into flames and shrank into my body.
"Be careful, Qingyuan, there's something coming."
The flames began to wrap around my body, and then I flew up slowly, and suddenly, my eyes widened, and I saw that at the edge of the darkness, something, came out, black, at first glance, it was the size of a person, on all fours, but black.
Then, in all directions, a black desire monster the size of a person came out, and at the moment I was stunned, I saw the first desire monster come out, bent his head, opened his mouth, and gnawed on it, facing the ground.
The place where I had been eaten disappeared, and now I finally understood why, the place on the edge of the darkness, is jagged, and it is for the teeth to gnaw.
I rushed over in an instant, and with one claw, I grabbed at a desire monster that was gnawing on the ground, and with a bang, with a fire, the desire monster smoked black smoke and disappeared.
All around, those black, human-sized desire monsters appeared, frantically gnawing the earth, and the masks were gradually disappearing, and I immediately took out the phoenix and slashed it towards the right hand.
The flames exploded, and with the light of the fire, the desire monster disappeared.
"It's too late, Qingyuan." Suzaku said, I nodded, let go of the phoenix, and slowly lifted into the air.
"Flame Feather ......"
The wings of the Vermilion Bird wrapped me up, and the crimson flames kept pouring out, and with a bang, the wings opened, and the flaming feathers, like splashing sparks, went towards the edge of the darkness under my feet, gnawing at the desire monster.
One by one, the desire monsters disappeared, but in the distance, a lot of the world has been eaten, those still alive desire monsters, regardless of the gnawing and eating, my heart is anxious, in all directions, there are bursts of noise, it seems that everyone has already started.
"Breath ......"
I flew over quickly, took a deep breath, and then a Suzaku cry, a large ball of flames, erupted from my mouth, except for the dark part, devoured, the other desire monsters that hit the flames, kept disappearing.
I flew in a hurry, and just as I was about to breathe again, in an instant, I saw the desire monsters in front of me, which were still devouring the ground, all whimpering and disappearing.
The "thread lock ......" is leprosy, he is standing in the air, raising his hands, this will, I see, it is indeed a lot, dense thread, has completely covered the edges.
"Let's go, go back first, Qingyuan."
I nodded, and flew back, finally smiling on my face.
"I didn't expect that it was these guys who were devouring the world, tonight, fortunately, we stopped it in time, otherwise, it might really be over."
Swallowing wine and pointing, in all directions, the few trees that had been eaten by gluttony had completely turned into a big pit with a diameter of four or five meters.
"If it weren't for leprosy, we would be out all the time, we would be busy cleaning up those guys, and inside, we would be finished, hey, you, you, hey."
The gluttony lowered his head and looked embarrassed.
"Okay, we found out early, as long as we can resist it, we have a way to do it in the remaining ten days, and Shenyanjun will definitely come over."
I listened to the tone of swallowing wine, and he seemed to know Shen Yanjun very well.
"But in the past ten days, it may have to make leprosy a little harder."
The strange old man said, swallowing wine and shaking his head.
"Wait, leprosy, you open six openings, according to the corresponding situation, except for the opening where Lao Ren is stationed, a little smaller, after all, he is now a dog, it is good to be able to solve three or four at a time, the rest of the people, must be solved at the moment when the desire is strange, don't have any luck, after all, we don't know what will happen later, this place that has not disappeared is our last barrier."
Then we consulted for a while, and went to our respective places, and we made an agreement that we should stay in the camp at the end of each night and when we went back to sleep during the day, and that we would keep our own entrances at night.
I came to my mouth, which is seven or eight meters wide, this distance is about the same, at one time, more than ten will come out, I only need to breathe, I can solve it.
But this will, Suzaku's face is still not good-looking, revealing a solemnity.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know, I'm still very uneasy in my heart, and that feeling is getting clearer and clearer, everyone here will die."
Suzaku said heavily, I wanted to comfort it, but after thinking about it, I shook my head.
"No matter what happens, I'm going to stay alive and get out, and the others are the same, they're much stronger than me, and they won't have a big problem because of such a small thing."
"I hope so, Qingyuan, consciously, I feel that this darkness seems to be pushed by someone's willpower."
