Chapter Eighty-Seven: Bloodless Soldiers
After sending off Erchun, we decided to move on.
Everyone was silent along the way, and I couldn't figure out Lu Zuo's attitude, so I didn't dare to speak, but I felt that Erchun's departure was more or less a fear of the unknown.
The king of the Northern Frontier gave us a lamp, and that lamp illuminated the way back to Cha Yingbacuo, but it did not give us a guide in the direction of our progress.
In fact, neither Lu Zuo nor anyone else dared to guarantee that the road ahead would be smooth.
If any accident happens, today will be our time of death.
And no matter what Lu Zuo says, this probability is definitely more than eighty percent, and because of this, Erchun felt scared at this time, out of fear of death, she chose to return to look more promising.
And Lu Zuo should know the thoughts of this female apprentice, so he gave her a step down.
Although Erchun is Lu Zuo's apprentice, he has not encountered any major changes since he followed Lu Zuo, and he is not like me who hovers on the edge of life and death all day long, and he has seen through life and death, and he is a girl, so when the matter comes to an end, he still loses to the cowardice in his heart.
Keep going, time ticks by.
I don't know why, although I can feel this time passing in my heart, but from my physical perception, it is as if time has stopped, and I am forever in the dark.
Sometimes, all of a sudden, I wonder if I'm dreaming.
In fact, there was no one with me, I was just in a lonely dream, and there was nothing in the dark and deep dream, only eternal darkness, as if it would continue until the end of the universe.
After a person loses his five senses, the fear of the unknown arises spontaneously.
This fear is omnipresent, and he makes people have a strong emotion that is difficult to let go, and even has a tendency to self-destruct, trying to end this journey of constant self-denial and self-conjecture through self-destruction.
It's no wonder that Erchun chose to quit, because compared to the rest, this kind of loneliness can really drive people crazy.
However, I don't know why, the people who walked with me, whether it was Lu Zuo or Miscellaneous Xiaodao, or Qu Fatsan and Duoduo, the two little guys, all seemed very calm, even if Lu Zuo built a spiritual bridge through means, none of them would say a word.
This silence plunged me into a panic, and when people were pushed to the extreme, my heart suddenly rose a little stubborn.
Every one of them is higher than my starting point.
In other words, they're all better than me.
Why?
If you think about it, maybe what I lost to them was on top of my mentality.
Thinking about it like this, I started to get more energetic, stopped thinking nonsense, and regarded this journey as a spiritual practice, so that I could calm my mind and feel the world beyond the five senses.
Sometimes, it's not a simple nothing.
It seems that there are many things that are difficult to continue.
Gradually, I became addicted to it, and I finally settled into it.
I don't know how long it took, but I had no concept of time at all, and suddenly I saw a bonfire in front of me, and it was far, far away, like the horizon, but at this moment, almost everyone seemed to wake up from their slumber.
The first to speak was the miscellaneous hairy trail.
However, this is not a surprise, but a reminder: "Attention, this guy is the gatekeeper of the turbulence of time and space, and this is his home field, our five senses are deprived, if he has malicious intentions towards us, he will attack us casually, and we will all die here." ”
Qu Fatsan expressed a different opinion, saying that the other party had lit a bonfire, indicating that he should have the willingness to talk to us.
Lu Zuo seemed to take a deep breath, and said Let's talk, it's best to talk, if you can't, you get ready.
With light, there is direction.
We walked towards the light, and in the backlight, we could also see each other's figures, our predecessors held the hands of our descendants, walking on the road like blind people, and under our feet was a desert Gobi.
I don't know how long I walked, but the bonfire grew larger and larger in my field of vision, and then I saw the people next to the campfire.
What surprised me a little was that there wasn't just one person next to the campfire.
It's more than a dozen people.
We continued on until we were more than twenty meters away from the campfire, and I saw who they were.
Flower fairy.
When I saw these figures, the first word that came to my mind was like this, and in fact, although there were many people there, most of them were little women who were no more than forty or fifty centimeters tall.
They are like Barbie dolls, each of them is very beautiful, and they actually have butterfly-like colorful wings on their backs, including pink, green, blue, purple, black and white.
The butterfly girls danced around the bonfire, while one man lay down in front of the bonfire, sleeping with his legs crossed.
He seemed to be sleeping soundly, and faint snoring could be heard from afar.
We didn't come forward immediately, but stood far away, not knowing how to come forward and negotiate.
Judging from the current situation, the man who fell asleep should be the butterfly boy mentioned by the crow.
The crow has only one comment on this person, which is called "poisonous heart".
The five of us looked at each other, and finally Lu Zuo stepped forward slowly, and after arriving at him, he arched his hand and said, "May I ask Your Excellency......"
Before he could speak, a butterfly girl with blue wings flew up to him, put her right index finger in front of her red lips, and whispered, "Shhh, my son has just fallen asleep, don't disturb him." ”
Lu Zuo was stunned for a moment and said......
A total of twelve butterfly girls, all of whom gathered around us, the blue-winged butterfly girl lowered her voice and said, "If you are told to go, don't disturb the butterfly boy." ”
I estimate that Lu Zuo had imagined a lot of situations before this, but he never expected that it would be such a result.
The butterfly boy who scared us was actually sleeping and didn't pay any attention to us.
This......
Lu Zuo's mind turned for a moment, and then he also said in a low voice: "Since this is the case, then don't bother the butterfly boy, we came here to go back to the surface, can you girls help me show me the way?" ”
The butterfly girl with blue wings pointed to the direction not far to the left, and said to go there, and after twenty meters, turn left and arrive, hurry up......
Yes?
It was so smooth, Lu Zuo's face was a little surprised, but he still said to these butterfly girls very respectfully: "Thank you girl for showing the way." ”
A group of butterfly girls flapped their wings and urged repeatedly: "Hurry up, hurry up." ”
Lu Zuo took us to the left, tiptoed past the bonfire, and walked straight to the left, so that after walking for more than 20 meters, a strange black arched circle did appear in front of us.
And inside that circle, there is an inexplicable energy floating.
Looking at this thing, I felt a little excited.
If we take a step forward, we will be able to return to the caves in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, and then we will be able to see the sun again, smell the moist and fresh air, and not have to endure the darkness of the day and night.
Seeing the light of day again is a fatal allure for everyone here.
Yet, for some reason, my heart hung in the air.
Lu Zuo, who was walking in front of the team, had just taken one step, but he hovered and did not move.
He froze for a moment, and then suddenly said, "That's not right. ”
Lu Zuo withdrew his right leg, and the miscellaneous hair Xiaodao also spoke: "It's really not right, a gatekeeper, I hardly see anyone here on weekdays, it stands to reason that there are finally guests arriving, no matter what, I have to say hello a few times, and it really doesn't make sense to sleep soundly like this." ”
Qu Fatsan said that things are too easy, it is a little abnormal, is this insulting our IQ?
Hearing their words, I realized why I had such a strong sense of resistance in my heart, because there were too many conflicts between things and what the crow said.
If I had to choose between a crow and a butterfly boy I had never met, I would choose Crow.
Even though it was just a bird.
Everyone stopped, and then turned around, and at this time, the butterfly boy, who had been lying down as if he had fallen asleep, stood up straight like a zombie.
At this time, I found out that this was really an extremely handsome man, with a height of 1.9 meters, a well-proportioned and powerful figure, and an extremely handsome silhouette.
Aside from the fact that the other party has a bit of femininity, I can hardly find any shortcomings.
The butterfly boy who stood up stretched his waist and smiled slightly: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from you, it seems that I still think things are too simple." ”
He stretched out his hand and wiped it gently, and the door that had just appeared in front of us suddenly disappeared.
Lu Zuo squinted his eyes and asked calmly, "I'm curious, what will we face if we step behind that door?" ”
The butterfly boy smiled freely, but he didn't hide it, saying that it was a passage along with the gluttonous sea, if you entered, then congratulations, as mortals, you will be devoured to the point that there is no scum left.
Miscellaneous Xiaodao clapped his hands and said that he was ruthless, and the most important thing was that he killed people without seeing blood, and soldiers were not bloody, which was really clever.
Butterfly boy snapped his fingers and said thank you for the compliment, but everyone's cultivation is quite good, and if you go head-to-head, there will be some trouble to solve, so I just want to be lazy.
Lu Zuo licked his lips and said that Butterfly Boy is from Worm Plain?
The man was stunned and said, "How do you know?"
Lu Zuo said: "In fact, we are friends with the old Wang next door......
