Chapter 18: The Way of Protection

Zige stood up, Lai Mengtian walked past him, and Zige grabbed her hand.

"Mengtian, Brother Mo already owes you two lives, do you want Brother Mo to owe you a third life? Life or death, Brother Mo will face it with you, okay?"

Lai Mengtian forcibly endured the tears that were about to overflow his eyes, turned around, and stroked Zige's face with his right hand: "Brother Mo, you never owe Meng Tian, this is Meng Tian's own choice." Brother Mo, live well, I will always wait here for Brother Mo. ”

Lai Mengtian gently broke free of Zige's hand, walked to the ferryman, and bowed without words. Zige clenched his fists, and a deep sense of powerlessness filled his heart. He wanted to protect Lai Mengtian, but he didn't have the strength to protect her. Therefore, he could only watch Lai Mengtian continue to fall into this sea of ghosts for him.

Zige suddenly desperately longed for power, not for revenge, not for the truth, just to protect the people he wanted to protect.

I don't know when the fragrance of flowers on the other side began to fade, and the fishy sea breeze returned. Zige let go of his hand, his nails embedded in the flesh were stained with a layer of blood, and he did something that even Mo Ling didn't expect.

Zige knelt down and knelt down on one knee: "Please be kind to Mengtian, when the younger generation ascends to the throne, he will return and take Mengtian away." I swear in the name of the Mo family, if Meng Tian loses a hair, the younger generation vows to die with the seniors. ”

This is the first time that Zige has knelt in front of someone other than his parents and Master Yuan, and perhaps the last. The ferryman didn't speak, but his delicate face was hidden in the white robe, and two faint ghost fires reappeared.

The ferryman walked back to the bow of the boat, picked up the wood pulp, and Feng Ring returned to the sub-singer in an arc, and the ferryboat slowly moved away from the other side. Lai Mengtian stood behind the ferryman and said nothing. Zige sat on the bow of the boat, and the fluorescent green candlelight illuminated his back.

The two were obviously very close, but they seemed to be very far away.

I don't know how long later, the ferry boat stopped, the blood-yellow sea hit the shore, and Meng Niang was standing there. Zige stepped off the ferry, and when he turned around, there was a vast fog in his eyes. The corners of Zige's mouth were a little bitter, his legs seemed to be filled with meteoric iron, and he walked to Meng Niang's side dejectedly.

Meng Niang took Zige's hand, just like a sister, and gently hugged Zige. Zige finally didn't hold back, tears welled up, crying like a child.

After a long time, Zige stopped crying, wiped away her tears, and gave Meng Niang a gift to her sister and brother: "Sister is very gracious, Xiaoge will never forget." ”

Meng Niang picked up Zige, handed the hairpin back to Zige, and said, "Since you recognize me as a sister, then you are my younger brother." Our sisters and brothers, don't talk about grace or gratitude. Xiaoge came back safely and recovered his strength, presumably because he got the other side of the flower. In this way, my sister was relieved. ”

Meng Niang paused for a moment and said softly: "Xiaoge, if you still want to see that girl, come back next month, my sister may have a way." ”

Zige was silent for a long time and said, "No need, sister." I'm going to get out of here. ”

This is a decision made by Zige after careful consideration, his strength has been restored, and there is no need to continue to stay in Tianyin Village. The special geographical location of Tianyin Village is destined to only kill Zige here, and he needs to go out and return to that broader world in order to go further.

Jian Lao once said that between life and death, there is great creation.

Heaven and earth are imprisoned and shattered, and the prosperous era is coming back, you don't have to think much to know that the outside world must be full of geniuses, and only by fighting with the real powerhouse can Zige climb to the peak of martial arts at the fastest speed.

Moreover, the east, west, and north sides of Tianyin Village are forbidden places, don't look at Zige has already entered the Sea of No Return, but if you want to return to the outside world from the Sea of No Return, Zige knows that she doesn't have the ability to do so. The only option is the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

With the realm of the ninth order of the master realm, wanting to pass through the Demon Beast Mountain Range is tantamount to a fool's dream, but compared to the other three forbidden places where there is no death, a fool saying that a dream is better than a fantasy!

Whenever he thought of Lai Mengtian being imprisoned for himself, Zige couldn't wait to become Emperor Wu immediately. Therefore, for him, every minute and every second is precious, and only by ascending to the throne as soon as possible can he save Lai Mengtian from the sea of no return.

Zige made plans on the way back, and in half a month, he would leave Tianyin Village. Even if the Demon Beast Mountain Range is dangerous, even if he never returns, he is not willing to delay and waste time any longer.

When you take the first step, you will have the second and third steps, and the road ahead.

Meng Niang looked at Zige, as if she was looking at her younger brother who was going to go far away, and said, "Sister knows that you are anxious, but my sister still has to tell you a word, and if you want to hurry, you can't reach it." This journey is dangerous, my sister can't help you anything, my sister has a word to tell you, maybe you can escape. ”

"Please make it clear to my sister. ”

"If there is a life and death crisis, take out the mask that your master gave you, it can save your life. ”

Zige's eyes lit up, he had never mentioned that mask to anyone, how did Meng Niang know? He was about to ask, Meng Niang seemed to see through his thoughts, shook his head at him, and held Zige's hand holding the hairpin.

Meng Niang's hand was very warm, Zige was suddenly relieved, she was her own sister, no matter what her sister knew or didn't know, her sister would never harm her brother, wouldn't she?

Zige cherishes all the true feelings, so he didn't ask, but once again gave Meng Niang a gift of sister and brother.

This time, Meng Niang didn't help him up. After a long time, Zige felt a ray of morning light fall on his back, dispelling the loneliness and chill of the night. Zige stood up, clutched the hairpin in his hand tightly, and looked at the red sun rising in the distance.

At this time, it happened to be the darkest time of the night, and it was also the time when the glow broke through the night, and the moonlight and the sun reflected on his face at the same time, casting a layer of color that people could not really see.

Zige didn't return to Tianyin Village immediately, this trip to the sea of no return not only improved his strength and broadened his horizons, but also changed his mood. When the Extreme Martial Continent says about the state of mind, there are only four words, and it is ethereal.

You want to say that it doesn't matter, and that doesn't seem to be a good one. Because a martial artist with an unstable mood is easily tempted by the outside world, if he forcibly climbs to the peak of martial arts, it is easy for the inner demon to seize the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. At that time, there will be butchers who only know how to kill, madmen who will become god-talking, and madmen who will become self-masochistic and self-harming......

But to say that the mood is important is an exaggeration. Because the state of mind is the most elusive thing, looking at the mountains is the mountains, and the water is the water, some people think that this is a return to the basics, and some people think that this is a mortal fetus with the naked eye. Looking at the mountains and not the mountains, and the water is not the water, some people think that this is a big fuss, or a trick.

The landscape is threefold, and the mood is like this?

From ancient times to the end of the martial era, from the great emperor and saint to the peddler pawn, no one can clearly explain the role of the state of mind. The blood is born from the heart, the demons are born from the heart, and the mood is also born from the heart, these seem to have nothing to do with the martial arts realm, but they seem to be closely related.

No one can prove that a warrior with a strong state of mind can be called an emperor, and the emperors and strong people recorded in ancient books also rely on pit abduction and deception to steal the throne, can you say that their state of mind is very strong?

But there are also strong people who rely on a tenacious and unyielding heart and have natural qualifications that belong to the inferior ascending to the throne, their hearts are like stubborn stones, and their state of mind is even stronger to the point that it is difficult to bury heaven and earth.

Facing the rising sun, in front of the vast sea of no return, Zige sat cross-legged and asked himself for the first time.

When the Mo family was not destroyed, he lived a carefree life, although he lived alone above Mo Yuan, he had a strict father and mother, and those warm clansmen, at that time, Zige naively thought that this life was happy.

After the tragic destruction of the Mo family, there was only revenge left in his heart, even if with the help of Master Yuan, he learned to control his hatred, but from then on, he only lived for revenge, and only worked hard to become strong for revenge.

When he met Fu Haozhong's brothers and sisters, and met Yu Shaobai, Zige re-felt feelings other than his family, but he still only lived for revenge;

Until that time, revenge still occupied his heart, and he firmly and persistently believed that he was living for revenge. He never thought about what would happen to his life if he took revenge.

Fortunately, he met Lai Mengtian, the shy and kind girl.

She saved him three times, the first time, the girl gave her life, the second time, the girl paid for three souls, and the third time, the girl paid for her soul. She said that it was all her own choice, and she never regretted it. child

For the first time, the song understands what it means to guard.

Revenge is the choice after a tragedy, and protection is to prevent a tragedy from happening!

"If I can have power, my father, mother, and people will not die! If I have power, Mengtian will not die for me! If I have power, the predecessors of the War Emperor and the fourth uncle will not have to pay for this! If I have power, I will not be a chess piece, but a chess player!"

"Mo Zige, you have to have power, not for revenge, not for the truth of bullshit, but to protect those you have to protect! Master Yuan, Ah Zhong, Yue Rong, Shaobai, Meng Tian, Xin'er, Sister Meng Niang, everyone in Tianyin Village, and everyone I meet in the future who is worthy of my cherishment, must be guarded by myself!"

"I don't know what the heart is, I only know, my heart tells me that my Mozi Song's martial arts exist for protection!"

"Protect all those I love, protect all those who love me, protect all things worth guarding!"

The sun is still rising, and now the sun is setting. The golden sunset fell on Zige's body, the curvature of the corners of his mouth was the unique vitality of young people, and the clean eyes revealed the light of who else was me, and there was a kind of "look up to the sky and laugh and go out, how can my generation be a Penghao person" free and easy.

Zige stood up, and at this moment, his realm broke through from the ninth order of the division realm to the tenth order of the division realm. Everything seems to fall into place, and there is no stagnation.

Ancient books record that there was a great wisdom who meditated on Bodhi, once attained enlightenment, and entered the holy world. That's the benefit of a mood breakout. Compared to that great wisdom, Zige is just a small thing.

Mo Ling came out of Zige's eyebrows, looked at Zige with a complicated face, and said for a long time: "You can walk out of your own martial arts in the martial artist realm, and since ancient times, you are the third person." Sitting for ten days, seeing the nature of the mind, and having a thousand chisels in the martial arts, you have to be consistent. Mo Ling, meet the master. ”

The little fat man respectfully bowed and bowed his head.
