Chapter 18: The Origin of Huang Jun

"Of course, I naturally know what you said, but if you think about it again, in other words, in different time periods, as long as this person does not die, then he will definitely exist continuously in time, that is to say, the day before yesterday, yesterday, and today, in these three time periods, this person will exist, but this person is just one person, why does it appear in three time periods?" Shu Yao asked.

Fang Qian looked at Huang Jun like an idiot, "What the hell do you want to say?" Time is a single flow, and the same person is naturally able to exist in different time periods"

"But have you ever thought if, I mean, what if, the day before yesterday, the day before yesterday, and even the time before him, he was one with him today? That is, at the end of the day, the person can only appear in one time period, and not in different time periods at the same time, so what happens? Shu Yao asked.

"Of course, huh? That is to say, the people of the day before yesterday had no impression of him, and the people of yesterday had no impression of him, and even the people of all previous time periods had no impression of him, because he would only appear today, and only when people saw him today, they would have his memory, and tomorrow, he would be one with him tomorrow, so at that time, people today will lose their memory of him, because he has disappeared from today's time period and appeared in tomorrow's time period. Only tomorrow's people may have an impression of him," Fang Qian tried his best to understand.

"That's right, that's it," Huang Jun nodded.

"You're saying that's what happened to my father?" Fang Qian's face was full of disbelief.

"It's hard to understand, but that's what happened," Huang Jun said.

Fang Qian was about to say something, but Huang Jun suddenly felt the entire stone shake imperceptibly.

"What time is it?" Huang Jun's face changed.

Shu Yao looked at the mobile phone he was carrying, "It's three o'clock in the morning, well, it's still a few minutes."

Huang Jun seemed to remember something, "It's not good, retreat quickly, get out of the stone room, it's too late", Huang Jun said, he had already walked quickly towards the steps outside the door of the stone room, although Shu Yao and Fang Qian didn't know what was going on, but they knew that the matter was very serious when they looked at Huang Jun's face, and they didn't ask anything more, and followed Huang Jun to retreat back along the way they came. When they just retreated to the open space outside the stone room, they turned back to find that the entire stone chamber and the steps of the tunnel were blurred for a while, and after a while, they had disappeared. And in the original location of the stone chamber, a dilapidated tomb suddenly appeared without warning. Fang Qian took a closer look, it was still his father's tomb, but the appearance was not as exaggerated as the original.

"Let's go back, it's over here", Huang Jun seemed to be very tired.

"What just happened?" Fang Qian asked.

"As I just said, the ultimate goal of that kind of strange cultivation is to merge a person from the past, future, and present into one at the same time, that is to say, the place where they cultivate is the most chaotic place in time, and now, that monster has been eliminated by me, the source of the existence of the stone chamber is gone, and the stone chamber can only be eliminated in the turbulence of time and space.

"What if we hadn't come out just now?" Fang Qian asked.

"Then our fate will be the same as that time and space turbulence, and we will never appear in this world again," Huang Jun said coldly.

"No wonder, no wonder" As soon as he thought of this, Fang Qian couldn't help but be afraid.

"So, my father's corpse?" Fang Qiandao.

"Naturally, it's where he should be, don't worry, now everything has returned to normal, before your father tried to condense the Dharma Bodies of different time periods into one, which would cause people's memories of him to disappear, but now that this move has failed, then your father's past Dharma Bodies will naturally return everywhere, I believe that their memories will also be restored, and your life will be no different", Huang Jun's mood was not high, which could be seen by both Shu Yao and Fang Qian.

Shu Yao still wanted to ask something, but Huang Jun looked at her and shook his head, Shu Yao understood that Fang Qian was present, and it was not convenient for Huang Jun to talk about many things, so the three of them didn't say anything again, and went back along the way they came, fortunately, they didn't meet any strange spirits along the way, and when they arrived in the city, it was already six o'clock, although it was only a few hours, but in the eyes of the three of them, it seemed that a whole century had passed.

"Mr. Huang, Miss Shu, I really don't know how to thank you" When it came time to separate, Fang Qiandao.

"It's nothing, this matter can be regarded as satisfying one of our curiosity, don't take it to heart" Huang Jun waved his hand, Fang Qian still wanted to say something, Shu Yao naturally saw it, so he said: "You go back, rest and rest, just treat what happened today as a nightmare, now it's all back to the beginning, don't think too much in the future", Fang Qian opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, just smiled, then sighed, and got into the car and left.

Looking at Fang Qianyuan's back, Huang Jun didn't know what he was thinking, and there was no expression on his face.

"Now, do you have something to tell me?" Shu Yao turned his face at this time and said to Huang Jun.

"I don't have much to say, what can I say?" Huang Jun said helplessly.

"What the hell are you?" Shu Yao took a deep breath and said very solemnly.

"What am I, I'm sure you can guess it, so why ask," Huang Jun said.

"Are you really that undead monster?" Shu Yao's face was full of shock, although she had already guessed before, but after all, it had not been confirmed, and it was inevitable that it would be difficult to accept it for a while when she received confirmation from Huang Jun's mouth at this moment.

"Don't say it so badly, how am I different now than I was before? I'm just going to live in a different way, and besides, you think I have three legs and two heads now? Huang Jun said.

"When did you become like this?" , Shu Yao said.

"Well, ten years ago, in that strange hole, remember? That strange hole, if I hadn't become like this, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me again now", Huang Jun said this, and remembered the pool of blood, the mysterious statue.

"What happened that day, can you tell me about it?" Shu Yao's mood was not as calm as her voice.

Huang Jun was silent, and after a while, he said, "Can I not say it?" ”

Shu Yao smiled bitterly: "How long are you going to hide it from me?" ”

Huang Jun sighed and told in detail everything he experienced in the strange cave ten years ago. He talked until he was swallowed up by the pool of blood.

"And then? What happened to you after you were swallowed up in a pool of blood? Shu Yao asked. She sensed that was the crux of the whole thing.

Although Huang Jun was still looking at Shu Yao, his eyes fell into a strange state, it was obvious that he sank deep into his memory at this moment, "When I woke up, I found that everything had changed, the blood pool was dry, the statue was gone, the whole cave was pitch black, I could feel it, there seemed to be a strong force sealing the cave, I wanted to scream, but I couldn't scream, I wanted to leave, but I couldn't take a step, I didn't know what happened, I wanted to contact you, but I didn't react, at that time, I, I really thought I had come to the end of my life, only to hear a voice."

"A voice? Could it be that there was another person in that cave? Shu Yao said.

"No, no, there is no one but me," Huang Jun affirmed.

"Is it a spirit, or something else?" Shu Yao thought about Huang Jun's state at the moment, and said carefully.

"Don't worry, there's nothing, there's nothing, I'm the only one there who can still be conscious," Huang Jun said as if laughing at himself.

"You can't talk about yourself like that", Shu Yao naturally heard Huang Jun's words, and he didn't know why, his heart hurt.

"If you tell me about my current state, can I still be called a human?" Huang Jun smiled bitterly.

"And then? What happened next? What the hell is that voice going on? Shu Yao didn't want to stimulate Huang Jun anymore, so he changed the topic knowingly.

"That voice, in fact, to be precise, that voice is not a voice, just a memory, like a memory from my past, but at that time, I felt that it was a memory that did not belong to me at all" Huang Jundao said.

"Memory? Whose? About what? Shu's spirits lifted.

"Do you remember the Qin Dynasty Taoist priest I told you about earlier?" Huang Jun said suddenly.

"Of course I do, but what does that have to do with you?" Shu Yao asked puzzled.

"It has a relationship, not only a relationship, but also a lot of it, because the extra memory in my mind is about that Qin Dynasty Taoist priest," Huang Jun said.

"That Qin Dynasty Taoist priest named Zhong? But how do you have a memory of him in your head? Shu Yaoqi said.

"That's right, it's him, I didn't understand it at first, but after I sorted out all the memories, I was sure that what appeared in my brain was indeed the memory of the clock, and all the things that the clock recorded on the blood pool I could find in my memory, the only difference was that when I read the words on the blood pool, I was watching as a third person, and when I sorted out that memory, I felt as if those experiences were my own experience, so I was more able to understand the pain and despair of the clock, and more importantly, In that memory, I also learned the story of what happened behind the bell," Huang Jundao said.

"Could it be that the Taoist priest of the Qin Dynasty named Zhong is not dead? How is this possible? Shu Yao said.

"Of course he didn't die, if he really died, maybe a lot of things wouldn't have happened today, in fact, when Zhong was taken away by that monster, he knew that he couldn't escape death, so he came up with a means to survive in death." Huang Jundao. 、

"By what means?"

"Actually, this method Zhong also came from a strange thing by chance, and I believe that the ancient book that Zhong learned about has some kind of connection with the ancient book on Fang Qian's father's body, in fact, you can guess it," Huang Jun said.

"You mean, you're saying that Zhong wants to turn himself into that kind of undead monster and then fight that monster?" Shu Yao took a deep breath.

"That's right, that's what Zhong thought at that time, and he did it, and the environment Zhong was in was also very suitable for the implementation of that secret method, so Zhong didn't hesitate to do it," Huang Jun said.

"He, he succeeded?" Shu Yao said nervously.

"I don't know if it should be considered a success, anyway, Zhong didn't die", Huang Jun said strangely.

"What the hell is going on?"

"When Zhong cast the secret method, he discovered a fact: it turned out that the monster that tried to take away his body was the undead he wanted to become, and that undead might be the last undead in the world, fortunately, the undead was obviously seriously injured, otherwise there was no need for a sacrifice, but after Zhong's desperate death, both sides were seriously injured, and in the end, although Zhong won a miserable victory, he was also exhausted, even if he had become an undead at that time, according to normal circumstances, he could not escape death, But Zhong was not reconciled, so he thought of a way" Huang Jun said.

"What's the solution?"

"When the clock learns a secret method from the undead and seals his remnant soul in that strange cave, once there is a suitable and difficult choice to enter the strange cave, the remnant soul will awaken and take away the host like that monster, and achieve the purpose of rebirth," Huang Jun said.

"That weird hole...... Could it be? Shu Yao looked at Huang Jun strangely.

"That's right, that strange hole is naturally the strange cave I entered, but you don't have to worry, because the remnant soul has been sealed for too long, it didn't swallow my consciousness, but I devoured its consciousness, but in the process, I accidentally became an undead race" Huang Jun sighed.

"So, what are you now? Is it Huang Jun? Is that the Taoist priest of the Qin Dynasty? Or the undead? Shu Yao asked.

"Naturally, I am Huang Jun, not anyone else, no matter what I become, I am still Huang Jun, but I know their memories, but their consciousness can no longer affect me," Huang Jun said.

"Are you sure?" Shu Yao asked uncertainly.

"Of course, for sure," Huang Jun took a deep breath.

"Why didn't you tell me the first time you saw me?" Shu Yao said.

"How can I tell you? Did I tell you that I was a monster now? I'm telling you I'm not human now? Will you just kill me? Huang Jun smiled bitterly.

"No, it's still not right," Shu Yao thought for a while.

"What's wrong?" This time it was Huang Jun's turn to be puzzled.

"If you are really an undead clan, then, how can you continue to cultivate without retreating? The Guardian's Exercises shouldn't be something that can be cultivated with anything," Shu Yao asked.

When he heard Shu Yao say that it was not something, Huang Jun's face was bitter, but he was helpless, and said: "I don't understand this either, but what I can be sure of is that after I became an undead, I found that the cultivation of Xuanling Jue was much easier than before, like, it's like ......" Huang Jun couldn't find the words to describe it for a while.

"Like what?"

"It's as if this technique was originally not for the undead to cultivate," Huang Jun said strangely.

Shu Yao was taken aback, "Impossible, the Xuanling Technique should be the guardian's inheritance technique, how can it be ......"

"However, among the Guardian's exercises, have you heard of any other exercises that are similar to mine?"

"That's not true, it's just that I still can't believe it," Shu Yao said.

"I can't believe it, I just think there's a secret hidden in it that we don't know," Hwang Jun affirms.

"I'm wondering, are your so-called undead similar to the zombies of ancient Chinese legends or the vampires of the West?" Shu Yao suddenly asked.

Huang Jun thought for a moment and said affirmatively: "There are indeed some similarities with them, but I can be sure that I am definitely not a zombie or a vampire now, although I don't know the difference yet, but I am not the same as them."

"What's the difference?" Shu Yao said.

"I can't tell, in short, it's different, it's just a feeling", Huang Jun touched his nose and replied.

"Last question," Shu Yao said.

"You're not afraid that Fang Qian will know your identity? , You should know that as long as Fang Qian is a normal person, it is impossible not to detect your weirdness" Shu Yao looked at Huang Jun puzzled.

"Don't be afraid, because he won't remember me again after guarding today, and you forgot his father?" Huang Jun said with a smile.

"You're saying that no one can remember you forever? In other words, as long as it comes tomorrow, I will forget about you completely? Shu Yao said strangely.

"Yes, so, people like us, who will never have friends, who will never die, but who will always be alone. However, you are different, if there is one friend I have in this world, it is you, because you will always remember me and will not forget me" Huang Jundao said.

"Why am I different?" Shu Yao asked.

"You forgot? When you were in the Strange Cave, you used to cast a secret technique that allowed us to connect through our minds," Huang Jun said.

"Remember, however, it's just a small spell, and it won't work after the time limit," Shu Yao said.

"Of course, but in that process, it is also in the process of my transformation, although I don't know what the reason is, but there is already some kind of connection between us, because of this connection, only you, will not forget me, except for you, I can't have any friends, because the day after they meet me, they will definitely forget that there is me in this world" Huang Jun said bitterly.

Shu Yao didn't answer, although there were still many things she didn't understand about what Huang Jun said, but she didn't know why, looking at Huang Jun in front of her, she suddenly felt deep sadness and pity.

"Don't look at me with that kind of look, I don't need your pity, I don't know how to live a chic life", Huang Jun suddenly shouted.

"I'm a Guardian and you're a monster, should I destroy you?" Shu Yao asked.

"Whatever you want, as long as you can destroy it", Huang Jun said viciously.

Shu Yao smiled, but the smile was a little helpless and bitter, but she knew that in the dark, maybe her fate and the monster in front of her had been entangled and could not be separated for the rest of her life.
