Chapter 45
Xing Mo saw Luo Shen in the distance, hung her head alone, and sat quietly on the stone platform behind the mist. It's like you're looking down and thinking about something, and you don't want anyone to disturb you, you just want to immerse yourself in your own thoughts.
The two brothers of Kou Ming and Kou'an, who were not far from Xingmo, seemed to have discovered the arrival of Twilight Yuchang and Xingmo, and they all supported the ground with their hands, and finally managed to get up from the ground with all their might.
"You...... Xing Mo, you are finally out of the limit, okay, great...... "Kou Ming seems to have a lot of vicissitudes, sweeping away the previous active appearance, but after seeing Xing Mo, he came to a little spirit.
Xing Mo turned around and smiled at the two of them and nodded. didn't say much, just leaned close to the nearest twilight. The feeling of palpitations that had just come out of the end had not subsided, and the fear that the pain was presented to her again in another form, she would never forget for the rest of her life.
She was thinking that these people who came out of the end were probably the same as her, experiencing their own painful torture, hovering on the border between illusion and reality, forcing themselves to make a sober and rational decision to return to reality, such a decision was bloody, tearing the flesh and blood of the heart and lungs.
Therefore, every one of them who came out of the end was very painful, helpless, and helpless. She knew exactly what it was like, and she didn't have any joy to escape. So she just wanted to get closer, closer. Because only when she was close to him, the powerful Twilight Rain who was not afraid of anything, could she feel at ease.
Twilight Yuchang lowered her eyebrows and looked at the night, a more decadent person who broke the realm. Feeling Xing Mo getting infinitely closer to herself, even her breathing was already close to her arm, slightly shaking his sleeve.
"Why did you come to Yuanqingguan?" asked Twilight Yuchang in a cold voice.
Xing Mo shook her head and raised her eyes to look at Twilight Yuchang, she naturally couldn't say that she obeyed Qianqiu Hongkun's arrangement.
"I want to ascend to immortality. She replied.
This is indeed a standard answer, because people who come to Yuanqingguan to apprentice want to ascend to immortality.
"You are a mortal, how can you let Qianqiu Hongkun personally send to Yuan Qingguan. It's true to ascend to immortal, but why do you want to ascend to immortal?" Twilight Yuchang bowed slightly, looking at her questioningly, just waiting for her answer.
Xing Mo licked her lips a little confused, "This...... Why can't I, a mortal, make friends with Qianqiu? It is true that he is the Lord of the Underworld, but the Lord of the Dead is also a living creature, with flesh and blood, and with a heart, I am very close to him and are friends with each other. I wanted to ascend to immortality, and he sent me here......
As for why he wants to ascend to immortality, it is naturally for longevity. ”
Twilight Yuchang smiled lightly, "I've been very busy these days, and I haven't gotten to know you in detail. But it seems too far-fetched for you to say that you and Qianqiu Hongkun are friends with each other. ”
"How far-fetched?" Xing Mo frowned.
"You forgot, that night in the East China Sea Peach Forest, you said that you didn't have much intersection with Qianqiu Hongkun. Twilight looked at her with a smile in her eyes that were unpredictable.
Xing Mo rolled her eyes, "That's because we hit it off at first sight, and we hate each other." Friends are not all old friends, but new friends are just as affectionate. ”
Twilight Yuchang smiled and shook her head, "That's it, since you want to stay in Yuanqingguan, just stay." But if you and Qianqiu Hongkun have any plans that are not conducive to Taiqingtian and Yuan Qingguan, I advise you to give up early. ”
Xing Mo frowned, pursed the corners of her mouth, and said in her heart, sure enough, these gods and goddesses all have the same arrogant temperament. But he soon regained his perverse complexion, "That...... Dare to ask Jin Xian, why did you suddenly appear in my limit, how can I thank you for your rescue several times?"
It's not that Twilight Yuchang didn't notice her small expression, but she felt that the girl in front of her was a little funny. "It seems that you also know that I have saved you three times. ”
Xing Mo nodded, but saw Twilight Yuchang slowly pacing in front of her, reflecting the moonlight under the mist, his back glowing with a faint and cold fluorescence, "I also just came back from Taiqingtian, and I landed in Yuanqingguan Shanmen Square." But I didn't think that this square had turned into a lake of blue waves, and I realized that this was the end of your ten years of training. ”
Xing Mo nodded, "And then?"
And then ...... On the surface of the lake, close to this side of reality, there will be a thick fog rising. Because the fog will obscure the surface of the lake to prevent it from reflecting the human figure. ”
Xing Mo was puzzled, "Why do you want to prevent the reflection of people on the surface of the lake?"
Twilight Yuchang turned around and looked at Xing Mo and said, "Because the lake of the end will copy the figure reflected in reality to the illusory side." However, I happened to fall on the surface of the lake, and I broke the fog, and my reflection naturally appeared on the surface of the lake. ”
Xing Mo suddenly said, "So, my end should have ended after the fire was ignited. But suddenly a person who looks exactly like you appears......"
Twilight nodded with a chuckle, "Yes." He was formed because of my appearance. So, I had to escape into the lake and go to the bottom of the lake to find my reflection. Sure enough, he incarnates in your end. ”
Xing Mo nodded, "So, you can see the end of the thirteen of us at the bottom of the lake? In other words, under the bottom of the lake, there is another lake?
Twilight Yulu hooked the corners of her lips, very bright, "Yes." ”
"That'...... Have you seen ...... The end of Luo Shen?" Xing Mo asked curiously.
"Mo'er. He was interrupted by a sudden voice behind him.
Xing Mo turned around, and sure enough, Luo Shen had a miserable white face, appearing in the mist not far behind her.
"Luo Shen...... Are you alright?" Xing Mo grabbed the cyan sleeve corner of Luo Shen.
Luo Shen squeezed out a smile weakly and spread his arms, "Look...... Isn't that good? You've figured out the end, you're probably the last one to break through. ”
"The last one to break the realm......? It's clearly just you and me...... Eight people are here. What about the remaining five?" Xing Mo was a little anxious.
Luo Shen didn't answer, Kou Ming Kou An on the side just stood with his head down, while Zhao Youfu and the others were still lying in place, motionless.
Twilight Yuchang gently flicked the flaming sleeve, and a gust of wind rose around him, and the mist was dispersed by his movements, showing the Yuanqingguan Square completely clear in front of everyone.
"See those paper boats? Except yours, there are seven of them. Twilight pointed to the seven not-so-large paper boats scattered across the square. Then he said, "You have brought me out of the end to make up for my mistake in producing the reflection." The seven were the ships that the seven of them were on in the end, and only seven of them returned to reality according to their routes. The remaining five have been lost in the end. No one boarded the boat, and the boat wouldn't have crossed the lake and come back here. ”
Xing Mo felt a little heartache, "What about them? What about the lake?"
"Naturally, they stayed within the bounds. Maybe it's my final choice, nostalgia for the unreal. Maybe it's a last resort and can't get out. In short, they can't come back. "Twilight Rain's indifference.
"Why can't you come back!?" Xing Mo couldn't believe it, it was just the experience of worshipping Yuan Qingguan one by one, but five people were buried alive, and they didn't know life and death. Even more terrible than death, death is a real end. But no one can say exactly what they are.
Twilight stepped on the masonry ground beneath her feet, "Because there is no lake here, and the only passage from reality to the end is gone." Even if it were to be opened again, it would be many years later, and there had never been a time when the lake had been the same as the last time it was opened. No one has ever measured the size of this lake. So, they can't come back. ”
Xing Mo sighed and finally didn't say anything more. If she could, she would have liked to mock this end, despising it and Yuan Qingguan's ruthlessness. Could it be that Tai Qingtian's style of doing things is the same? Indifferent and ruthless.
Time passed, and a faint daylight broke through the clouds. The clear sound of the bell in the distance came from the Laojun Pavilion, awakening the creatures of Yuan Qingguan who had to get up early.
Twilight Yuchang turned around and looked at the people in the square, "Everyone, the ten days of practice have passed, and the old monarch pavilion is invited." ”
With that, he flew into the air, and the clouds and mist swirled under his feet, carrying him straight into the sky, towards the lush mountains in the distance where the Laojun Pavilion was located.
Xing Mo watched his distant figure disappear into the sound of Zhong Qi, and called out Luo Shen, and a group of eight of them followed the stairs that winded up the mountain from Shanmen Square to the end of the wooden bridge at the front of Laojun Pavilion.
"After crossing this wooden bridge, the old Junfeng on the opposite side is. Xing Mo looked at the old wooden bridge hidden in the clouds, and thought that he must learn the art of flying clouds and fog as soon as possible, otherwise he would have to pass through this bridge every day to go to Laojun Pavilion to practice, and every day he would go through a love parting illusion, which was really unbearable. Maybe one day another phantom snake will emerge and devour itself along with the mirage.
The so-called once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope, is the meaning.
Luo Shen didn't seem to be in the mood, "Why are you so verbose." Even if you have ten days of practice, you have to drag your tired body to the top of the mountain, and this is not the end. There is such a dilapidated and dilapidated bridge that we want to walk on? This broken bridge is just enough to walk through once on the day of entering the Yuan Qingguan, and I can't bear it a second time!"
With that, he took Xing Mo's arm, leaned sideways, and hugged Xing Mo horizontally to his chest.
Xing Mo was shocked, "Huh?!" But before she could say half a word, Luo Shen suddenly stomped on the ground with a kick.
A cloud of smoke swirled and condensed at Luo Shen's feet, carrying the two of them up.
Smoothly and quickly across the cliff, the flowing clouds swept over Xingmo's cheeks with the wind, she tightly wrapped around Luo Shen's neck, but she was not afraid of such a height of the cliff, and even looked down at his feet from time to time, looking at the clouds speeding under the cliff.
"Are you in a good mood?" Luo Shen finally asked with a smile on his face.
Xing Mo raised his head, his forehead almost touching his chin, "Finally, I don't have to be tortured by those ten days of training, and my mood is okay." ”
"Mo'er, I hope you've always been like this...... Carefree, desireless. Just be yourself and don't go through the beginnings and ends. Luo Shen said lightly.
Xing Mo was puzzled, why did these people change their taste when they came out of the end, and it was strange and strange.
"What are you talking about?" Xing Mo felt the wind decrease, and Luo Shen had already carried her and landed gently on the Laojun Peak, in front of the Laojun Pavilion of the Octagonal Tower.
"Nothing...... Let's go inside. ”
He put her down from his arms, and without looking at her again, he walked forward and stepped into the old king's pavilion.
