Chapter 256: Memory
When I traveled back in time, I thought that with a slight change, I could reverse my fate.
But in the end, everything is just a MΓΆbius ring, and nothing has changed, but it has evolved from another perspective.
Zhao Xiaoxue was still hit by the ice arrow, and in the past, I walked into the house that I crossed.
When I came back, I could only watch everything repeat itself and do nothing.
When the mountain god rescued Zhao Xiaoxue at the cost of my sacrifice, I agreed without hesitation, but I didn't expect that I was stopped by the old Chen Tou next to me, and even more bluntly said that it would destroy the entire Qingshan Town.
Old Chen took advantage of the mountain god's inattention and stabbed the mountain god with a bronze sword.
I saw the mountain god slowly turn around, and finally covered his wounds, fell to the ground, and slowly stopped moving.
As soon as the mountain god died, everything was in vain.
I hated Lao Chen a little, and I was disgusted to see those white nematodes slowly emerging from his body.
This may have been the price of betraying the mountain god, who twisted his body in pain and struggled to lean towards me, but I was so frightened that I kept hiding.
In the end, more than a foot away from me, Lao Chentou stopped moving, didn't even say a word, and finally turned into corpse water with the nematode and disappeared.
I took the injured Zhao Xiaoxue in my arms, I didn't know what to do next, the mountain god was gone, and the last hope was shattered.
Zhao Xiaoxue, who was weak, hugged me tightly and whispered in my ear: "Live well." β
This is the sentence I hate the most in my life, but it is also the most loved sentence.
Then I felt that Zhao Xiaoxue in my arms turned into green smoke and disappeared completely.
I still have a lot to say, but in the end I can only open my mouth wide and freeze in place.
Eventually, I sat down on the ground, unable to believe what was in front of me, more than a year ago, I was just a naughty child in Qingshan Town, when Zhao Xiaoxue was nothing more than a mute.
And the thread of life entangles us, but it eventually tears us off.
I looked at the little finger, the dent, completely gone.
In this world, there is no more Zhao Xiaoxue, not even a soul.
Throughout the ages, in all generations, in the desolate universe, there is no longer that girl named Zhao Xiaoxue.
Suzaku represents time, and now I really feel like time has stopped.
I vow to be a Taoist priest, uphold justice, and guard the way of heaven.
But in the end, I found out what is the way of heaven and what is justice.
We kept shouting about the mountain god, thinking that the mountain god was protecting Qingshan Town, but in the end we found out that this was nothing more than wishful thinking on our part.
always talks about the reincarnation of heaven, but finds that this is just a world where the weak eat the strong, and everyone lives for themselves.
My world has completely collapsed.
I looked around blankly, overwhelmed.
Looking at the strange white house in front of me and the surrounding pond, I suddenly had the idea of suicide.
I wanted to jump into the pool, but I was grabbed by the Taoist aunt next to me, and I struggled, and she chanted a spell, and vines grew on the ground, binding me.
Dao Gu looked at Su Xuanke and said to him, "It's time to finish." β
Su Xuanke nodded, then got up, climbed to the wall, and reached out to touch the barrier on top.
Then, like glass shattering, the barrier above was lifted, and the cicadas that had stopped on it flew in.
Su Xuanke got up and jumped on the top, then disappeared.
Dao Gu turned on her aura, turned into a crow, took me with her, and flew out.
I was in the sky above, and I found that only the barrier at the top of the courtyard in the middle had been lifted, and the rest was still there, and Su Xuanke was standing on top of those barriers, as if looking for something.
I thought that he should be looking for the injured Song Xuyun and ending everything.
At the same time, I saw Dr. Liang and the wolf king, attacked by the cicadas, and they ran to the courtyard next to them, and they were lost again.
I don't have time for them.
Apathy!
The mountain god is dead, Song Xuyun will also be killed by Su Xuanke, everything can continue, Dao Gu must want to take me out of here now.
I didn't expect it to end up like this.
Whenever I think of Zhao Xiaoxue's reluctance to leave Daoist Bay, my heart is full of pain, maybe at that time, she had some kind of premonition, so she was so reluctant.
When I crossed over later and met Zhao Xiaoxue with a gray and white mouse again, she may have confirmed the ominous premonition.
It's just that if she doesn't block the ice arrow for me, the one who dies must be me.
Even though she knew the fateful end, she still went, just because of this damn love.
I'm such a piece of shit.
In the end, it's just someone else's tool.
In the sky above, I saw that there was a fire coming from the house farther and farther away, probably Su Xuanke had already fought with Song Xuyun.
Two identical people, Song Xuyun didn't expect that they would be his past self.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, mountain god.
There are two mountain gods here, and at first I always thought that one of them was back in time.
But now that I think about it, something is wrong.
Old Chen Tou betrayed the mountain god for the sake of Qingshan Town, he could have killed the mountain god before, but why did he not do it, in the end, because I had to exchange with the mountain god, I finally caused him to do it.
Is it just because Old Chen wants to survive?
Or is it that the mountain god did not die at all?
This mountain god has divine power, but he was attacked by Lao Chen Tou just now, and his death is too unknown, and Lao Chen Tou once said that the mountain god is not something we can understand.
And the mountain god has been coercing me to open the gates of hell, what does it matter?
I don't think it's over at all.
I suddenly jumped off the cloud formed by the crows, landed in the woods, and then took the Soul Scattering Pill and hid.
Dao Gu in the sky above didn't expect me to leave suddenly and disappear.
I don't believe any of the people here, the only one who can believe is Zhao Xiaoxue, but she is no longer there.
Now, I'm going to live for myself completely.
Dao Gu once said that everything that happened here would be recorded by those pangolins, and the pangolins were the memory tapes here.
All the secrets can only be guessed from the words of the pangolin.
The Dao Gu in the sky circled and looked for me for a long time, and finally landed in the distance, and I saw crows flying in the woods in patches, trying to find me.
However, I've already taken the Soul Scattering Pill, and they can't sense me at all.
I had been entrenched under the tree for a long time, and finally I heard movement and a few pangolins passing by.
I imitated the voice of a pangolin and shouted, "Mountain god." β
I don't know exactly how to get the pangolin chat, but I can only say these key words, hoping to bring them back to memories.
When the pangolin heard it, he stood in place, looked left and right, and did not find me.
The one at the head, who thought it was the one who said it later, even repeated it again: "Mountain God." β
In this way, several pangolins, being guided, began to speak.
"Mountain God."
"Rely on the mountain gods."
"The mountain god can't understand it."
"The mountain god can't leave."
There are many, many words, and all kinds of information came in at once, and I don't know who said them, maybe they have been circulated for thousands of years.
It suddenly occurred to me that this place was related to the Yin Shang Dynasty, and the Shang Dynasty was prevalent in witch culture, so I imitated it again: "Wu".
When the pangolin heard it, he spoke again.
"Great Witch Sacrifice."
"The Great Witch is from Mobei."
"The Great Witch has set up a mysterious place here."
Could it be that this is also related to Wu Xian?
And what does the phrase "the great witch set the hidden place here" refers to? Could it be that in the beginning, there was no hidden place here?
Sometimes it's a headache to have no information, but once there is too much information, it's just as troublesome, and I can't grasp the point at all.
I thought of another key word, and once again imitated: "Hell's Gate." β
At this time, the pangolins were guided again.
"The gates of hell cannot be opened."
"The mountain god is trapped at the gates of hell."
"Hell's Gate Time."
As I was talking, I suddenly heard footsteps, and the pangolins stopped chatting and ran into the grass next to them again.
It was Aunt Dao who was looking for me, and when I got here, I hid it better, she didn't find it, and continued to look for it.
Listening to what the pangolin said, could it be that this one outside is not a mountain god at all, the real mountain god, and he is still in the gate of hell?
And the gates of hell should have some kind of relationship with time.
At this time, Dao Gu was also about to go away, she suddenly picked up something by the grass, it seemed to be a head rope, and casually said "Qin Xupien". Then continue to look for it.
Maybe this head rope was left by Immortal Gu Qin Xupian back then.
The pangolins, which came out again, continued.
"Qin is pitiful. Sister Qin. β
"Sister Qiao, good sister. You must help me. β
