Brother Zhengchuan didn't expect my decision to be like this, looking at my face in the firelight, he spoke for a while: "You decided to be here?" ”

"Brother Zhengchuan, can you do it here?" I looked at Brother Zhengchuan, the hand holding the jar was very steady, and there was no fluctuation on the emotion.

"It's probably still a bit dangerous." Brother Zhengchuan didn't answer my question directly, but looked into my eyes, feeling that he wanted to see through my eyes clearly what I was thinking?

"Nowadays, it's not that some things are dangerous for us, it's that every day can be dangerous." I looked directly into Brother Zhengchuan's eyes and said it very seriously.

"I'm not completely sure, if only Master was here. If you want me to unblock you, what I want in my heart is to at least invite some people I trust to protect the Dharma for us, in a safe place. Brother Zhengchuan explained to me softly, and then added: "Before, I thought about going to Wangxian Village, or going back to the Nie family. ”

Speaking of this, Brother Zhengchuan was silent.

I shook my head and said, "Now whether it's the Huo Nie family or Wangxian Village, we can't go. Perhaps, they don't know about Wangxian Village, but if we go rashly, maybe Wangxian Village, this last stronghold, will also be exposed. ”

I'm telling the truth very probably.

"Take a gamble, there's no way back." As I spoke, I raised my hand and was about to slap the jar in my hand.

Brother Zhengchuan took my hand with a hesitant look on his face.

"Brother Zhengchuan, don't you still understand our situation?" Aunt Chengzhen wants us to hide, but when will it end? The road ahead is vast, and there is no way back behind us, the strongholds of the demon hunters have been picked, and if they are not picked, we can't go.

To be exact, we can't go anywhere we are familiar with.

The only way to do that is to increase your strength.

I can think of these, and Brother Zhengchuan can naturally think of it.

He took my hand and loosened it a little, I looked at him and said, "I have ten thousand soul flowers in my soul, which contains a trace of the will of life from heaven and earth, and it is already a very good thing for me to have such a chip to gamble." ”

"Don't be here, go find a cave tomorrow. Even if it doesn't have much effect, at least it's better than being exposed to the wilderness doing something like this. Although there was still a hint of hesitation in Brother Zhengchuan's eyes, he basically agreed with my decision.

"Okay." I stood up and started to clean up.

Brother Zhengchuan looked at me puzzled, and I turned back to Brother Zhengchuan and said, "Every minute and every second of calm now is precious to us. Looking at Aunt Chengzhen's posture, I can't say that those big demons have already gone to the ghost market to look for people today, and I don't know how long they can drag it out. We don't have time to wait for tomorrow, so let's go find a cave tonight. ”

While talking, I picked up my luggage, looked at Brother Zhengchuan and said: "In this mountain forest, the cave is not difficult to find." ”

Brother Zhengchuan looked at me in a daze, but he still started to clean up with me without a word.

After less than half an hour's rest, we walked again in the dark mountain forest, and every step I took was very steady and fast, and in such a snowy night, the road was slightly slippery, but it was inevitable to fall.

Brother Masakawa and I pulled each other until Brother Masakawa pulled me up again, and I finally found a cave on the hillside in front of me.

If I hadn't fallen to the ground, I probably wouldn't have noticed that the hole wasn't too big, and there was a rock that was half of the cave.

"Brother Zhengchuan, I've found the cave." I was a little happy in my heart, after all, it was quite smooth, and we could find a cave in less than an hour, and we have to thank God.

But Brother Zhengchuan was silent behind me for a long time.

I turned my head to look at him, and he met my gaze, and when he saw that I was puzzled, he barely managed to squeeze out a smile and said, "I'm afraid it's the cave of the beast." ”

"Brother Zhengchuan, are you still afraid of wild beasts?" I frowned.

The smile that Brother Zhengchuan barely squeezed out disappeared, but there was a worry in his expression, and he suddenly said to me: "Third child, you have changed a little. ”

"Am I changing?" The anxiety and anger in my heart have not been 'let go' of me all the time, and I don't want to discuss this with Brother Masakawa here.

"Yes, you've changed. At least tonight feels a little strange to me. But I can't say anything. Brother Zhengchuan's face was somewhat sad, and he lowered his head.

My heart ached slightly, I didn't mean to make my cherished people feel strange, but when I thought of my current situation, I realized that those warm expressions might no longer be useful to me.

Whether I'm forcing myself or God's arrangement, I'm only the one standing in front of them.

The best thing I can give them is that with me, they can live every day in peace.

I didn't blindly choose like this, from the current point of view, only I have the possibility to do this, because I also have an identity as Nie Yan.

Thinking of this, I whispered, "I haven't changed. ”

"Third, I don't know what the future holds. If it were possible, I wouldn't want to break this seal, I wouldn't want to face you as such a stranger. You haven't forgotten what I said, have you? If I could, all I would care about would always be Ye Zhengling. Brother Zhengchuan raised his head and looked at me in the snowflakes: "It's very naïve, but I still want to say, never let me be like that day, just looking at your back, but I don't recognize you at all." ”

"Don't say to me like you did that day, I'm not a third child, I'm Nie Yan, the word Yangsheng, and the Taoist number is Changwu."

"Perhaps, you have forgotten that day."

When Brother Zhengchuan said this, I pretended not to care and looked at the surrounding mountains, I didn't tell Brother Zhengchuan that I had experienced a disaster that was closest to death, and experienced a dream-like moment.

I've long remembered what happened that day, and I just haven't said it.

I could feel Brother Zhengchuan's choked up when he said this, and my eyes were a little red when I looked at the mountain.

I am not afraid that as soon as the seal is lifted, I will completely change back to Nie Yan, not only towards Brother Zhengchuan, but even if my attitude towards all the familiar people around me has changed, I don't even dare to imagine how to face my parents.

But when I turned around, I gave Brother Masakawa an unusually bright smile: "Really? And this kind of thing. Brother Zhengchuan, I swear not, I will not be like that. ”

"Really?" Brother Zhengchuan looked at me suspiciously, not knowing where I got my confidence.

How can I have any faith? I did this just to give Brother Zhengchuan a peace of mind, I was afraid that he would back down because of this, and he didn't want to break the seal on me again.

I lied to him!

Whether I lied to him, or he thought I had changed, but the world didn't give me a choice, I could understand my heart, and my feelings for them had never changed.

These feelings are eternal.

I sighed in my heart, but I walked up to Brother Zhengchuan, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is a mysterious feeling, I can't explain it to you." But I said no, definitely not. ”

Brother Zhengchuan didn't expect me to lie to him like this, he didn't suspect me, and even said excitedly: "That's good, you were worried about what happened after the lockdown was lifted, let me remember you." I didn't expect things to take such a turn."

I grabbed Brother Zhengchuan's shoulder, turned my head and rubbed my eyes vigorously, and then smiled at Brother Zhengchuan and said, "Yes".

The snow is getting heavier and heavier, just as the snow will never stop tonight.

The cave was on the slope of a hill not far away, not a long distance, and when Brother Zhengchuan and I walked to the cave, the snow had accumulated a lot on the ground.

We were lucky that this cave was a cave of wild beasts, but for some unknown reason, the beasts in the cave did not come back, so it was a little less troublesome.

In this way, Brother Masakawa and I approached the cave of the beast.

The smell inside was not good, there were some scattered bones, presumably the original 'cave master' food, and a layer of deliberately laid hay or something, it seemed that this guy would enjoy it.

In such an environment, it is indispensable to clean up.

Brother Zhengchuan and I moved our hands and feet quickly, and it took about twenty minutes to clean up this small cave, and two people worked together to move the rock at the entrance of the cave towards the cave, so that the exit of the cave was only a gap that could only accommodate one person.

At least it ensured that we wouldn't be disturbed.

There was still a faint smell of fishiness in the cave, but we didn't care about it that much.

As Brother Masakawa said, a small cave can also bring people some sense of security, and I am already very satisfied.

I took out the jar of demon essence blood, this time I didn't hesitate to open the jar, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from the jar, under the light of the flashlight, the jar of demon essence blood exudes a strange light, different from ordinary blood, just like a flowing ruby, a kind of demonic power at a glance.

"Maybe you're right, this essence blood has already begun to 'disperse', but now it's the best time to use it, and if it's a little later, I'm afraid it won't have such a good effect." Brother Zhengchuan glanced at the essence blood in the jar and said.

"Sue me for what to do." By now, I have completely rejected Nie Yan's identity and strength, because I have long recognized that only Nie Yan's power can turn the tide in this turbulent era.

However, who wants to be silently annihilated in a lifetime? There is not a trace of zài left.

Even if 10 million people sue me at the same time, I am Nie Yan, but I have lived for more than 20 years under the identity of Ye Zhengling, I am not brilliant, nor is I outstanding, every time I fight with my life, I just want people to identify with me, not Nie Yan.

Think about it, who wouldn't instinctively resist the existence that makes them disappear completely? Who doesn't want to instinctively leave a trace of their past?

Even if it disappears by itself, it is another self.

But at this moment, I was really very calm, and I found that I had left my own traces in the hearts of many people, and in the face of the form, I could be regarded as accepting my fate completely and without struggling.

Sacrifice is never easy, I just didn't expect that when it really came, I would accept it so calmly.

"The real usage should be to take one-third of the Great Fairy Blood, and then use the rest with the unique herbs of Shanmen to bathe the body and absorb it slowly and gently. This is the best chance of success. But here, I'm afraid it can't be so, I need to make a fire. Brother Zhengchuan said to me.

I nodded, and then went about my business again.

Finally, in this small cave, a bunch of flames were born, and a small pot filled with snow was set up on top of the flames, and Brother Zhengchuan took out a very well-wrapped bag from his backpack and said, "These are those herbs that match the blood of the big goblin, in fact, I have always carried them." ”

I watched in silence as the snow melted rapidly under the temperature of the flames and turned into water, and as the water boiled, the steam rose.

'It used to be snow, it used to fall on the earth', I had only one thought in my heart, but there was no sadness at all.

Brother Masakawa added herbs to the pot.

The pot of snow water quickly turned into a small pot of turquoise juice.

Finally, Brother Zhengchuan took the jar of demon beast's essence blood, and poured two-thirds of it into the pot very carefully, just stirring it slightly, and the pot of turquoise juice turned into a strange pale pink.

"The third child, it's about to start." Brother Masakawa took out a knife from his backpack.

I forgot one last glance at the snow outside the cave, and nodded softly.
