Chapter 148: The Immortal Sword Sees Shadow
It stopped, and I felt resistance in my hand, and when the blade touched some soft tissue, the other party suddenly opened his eyes and stared at me coldly.
I avoided its gaze, and when I felt that I was going to kill it, I increased the strength of my arm and pushed it up, but I was also nervous, and my heart rate kept rising.
But at this moment, I felt a hand reach out in front of me, and then I saw the black mirror, and in the mirror, I was in pain and powerless, struggling in the darkness around me.
I tried to avoid this dilemma, but the big black hand kept approaching, trying to engulf my consciousness and make me fall into it.
I struggled to control my consciousness and gritted my teeth, moving the tip of the knife, feeling the blade in my hand come into contact with something completely different from before.
That is where it is most vulnerable, and it is also the core of life, the thoughts that are firmly wrapped in it, that is, the meaning of existence?
A simple thought, but in it there are a thousand inextricable thoughts, they are a huge net, but also a small wall, trying to exclude all external factors.
But when I touched it, it was as if I had stepped into a dark world, and I knew what I was doing, but my senses were sending a strong deceptive signal to me what was wrong.
In the lonely darkness, I heard all kinds of complicated voices in my ears, it was my friends calling me, but they were not there, it was just my delusion.
There is no one else here at all, because unlike them, I can stop myself, but I can't ask others to do anything!
I have a reason to find out the wrong information and wake up from it, but another voice is laughing at me, this is a lonely world, you are alone, in fact, this is yours, you should not leave.
I want to refute it, but I have to hold back, no matter what it says, my heart should not be shaken, because I have to understand that all this is false, and what it says is to attract me to accept them, to believe in all these falsely constructed worlds.
The darkness is boundless, I avoid it, but my mind is very chaotic, and some things do not come from the outside world, but from myself.
I immediately opened my eyes and retreated into the darkness, trying to find the edge, trying to get out of it, and even more so to get the mirror out of my eyes
However, I walked for a long time, and the voices in all directions were like sea water, drowning me, making me give up, making me submit, but this was not my choice, I could not do it.
Until that voice suddenly appeared, the surrounding sound was like a seesaw, and it was suppressed by the appearance of this voice.
"We are all the same, if you kill me, you will kill yourself, because your heart is by my side, I can feel everything about you, and I can copy you."
"Do you know how you died? Understand what it means to collapse the soul, you see! That will break you, what if a living person loses the meaning of life, your time is quickly taken away in the snap of a finger. You'll stay here for the rest of your life, and even when you wake up, you'll never forget the imprint on your subjective consciousness – you're dead, you're no longer alive, the world is a cage that traps you in now. ”
"You long for release, you want to jump off the roof, you long for your new self, you will miss how lonely you look and you will never be able to return to the crowd again, because you are an alien! You have no value in existence at all, because you yourself believe that the life you have spent is a ghost in life! ”
The voice came from within me, roaring like an untamable beast.
And now I'm wailing, I don't know I can't bear it, but I know that I can't back down, because then I will lose my power.
Supporting my consciousness, I tried to communicate with the other person, but no one answered me, I was numb and hopeless.
Panting and calling his name, but there was no response, the darkness in his heart was about to burst out, until suddenly the sound exploded from the sky, and then quickly overcame the darkness and came to my side, and also sent another real me back.
The darkness subsided little by little, and I gradually came back to my senses, the first thing I saw was the masked man, and then it was Jiang Yuchen who helped me stand up.
"You scared us just now, it looks ...... like that" Jiang Yuchen said in a panic, and shrunk his neck again, as if he was still a little afraid, "But fortunately, there is that buddy, he seems to be very good at this thing, and a stab on its head woke you up!" ”
I was at a loss, and with the help of Jiang Yuchen's flashlight, I saw that black shadow, which was going limp, and the thing that destroyed it made me feel clever, and a large number of memories rushed in.
It was a dagger, but it was unusual, as it could kill all unknown creatures and dismantle their essence.
I didn't expect to see it here, and in such a way.
I struggled to my seat and immediately asked the masked man, "Where did you get this?" ”
The other party turned around and pulled the dagger out of the black shadow's head, and a few drops of black blood fell to the ground.
"Are you alright?" He didn't answer me, looked down again, and finally whispered, "I didn't expect to have such a heavy obsession, I really don't know what nostalgia there is in this world, it's better for him to see clearly!" ”
"You just ......" I stared at him, the words on my lips, but I didn't know how to ask any more.
The other party tore off a piece of cloth from his body, turned around and said, "That's right, I know your problem, or the current me, it's not much better, if you experience death and know the result, I'm afraid you will become like it, because of time, and the world you are in." ”
At the end, he looked at the black coffin again, with a slight longing in his eyes, but soon he smiled and shook his head, "What nonsense am I talking about, not letting it touch here, just to prevent such a thing from happening, but I didn't expect it to be late in the end!" ”
I sighed, but after adjusting my thoughts, I pointed to the dagger it was wiping and asked, "Are you Zhou Ye's apprentice?" ”
The other party hesitated, and his eyes moved to the dagger in his hand. The appearance of the dagger was very similar to the dagger I found when I was in Yunnan, the blade was very thin, but the biggest and most special thing was that there was a cold light flowing on this dagger.
Although the light was weak, it was very dazzling in the surrounding darkness, as if it would never be extinguished, and it was the only fire that could restrain the dark world.
It even seems that with a single wave, a long opening can be cut in the huge black curtain, revealing a different scene.
The handle is short, which is ideal for the reverse grip, and the blade is also deflected outward, allowing for flexible one-handed slashing, which is a combination of the middle in close combat.
You can attack and retreat, but the biggest drawback is that it is difficult to master the flexibility, because in my opinion, this backhand holding knife posture is a difficult habit to develop, just like using a knife with the left hand, it takes a long time to run-in, and after getting used to it, you can be at ease.
However, in his use, no matter what kind of offense or defense, it is very suitable, in addition to matching the dexterity of his fingers, but also combining his own characteristics.
It can be seen that this knife has been used so skillfully, and it is absolutely impossible for it to be stolen or robbed, because then there will be no time to give him such a chance to become familiar with it.
The blade in my hand, reflecting the light, was broken down by the darkness, and I was waiting for his answer, but he lowered his head and wiped the dagger slowly, not knowing what he was thinking or not wanting to answer.
The dagger also made me stop looking, it is very special, its material, it can decompose any substance, dissolve what we see and what we can't see.
In the light, it seems to have broken down all the light, and a single ray of light shines through, but it can reflect three different colors of light back.
The dirty black blood on it was wiped clean little by little by the masked man before it was finally put away.
"He's not my master, he didn't give me anything but this dagger!" Eventually, the Masked Man said something to me, and it seemed to be his thoughtful answer.
In the short words, there are too many things that outsiders can't understand, and it seems to be a long story, which is constantly compressed to form such a sentence.
I didn't know how to ask again, but I remembered the person I went to meet with Dongfang, and what I knew, about Mr. Zhou Ye, and finally glanced at him again.
"How much do you know about your master," I wanted to ask him about the dagger, but the words changed again.
I was also surprised by this, but the other person turned around, glanced at me, and put the dagger in the box behind him.
"You've seen him! Why do you ask? ”
After a moment's hesitation, I continued, "Actually, I only knew about him because of that dagger, but I didn't clear him of his person!" ”
"Dagger, what did he do? I never seem to have seen him use it? ”
"That's because these things didn't belong to him originally, he just took them over, but now ...... It's all a thing of the past! ”
