The judge walked slowly in the wilderness, the disorganized battlefield poured out the cruelty of war, the corpses of people and birds were piled up into uneven mountain barriers, the wind and dust blurred their flesh and blood into pieces like scales, the blood water watered the lotus, and the lotus fed back to the blood, they blended and shuttled among the corpses, adding a touch of weirdness to the already cruel and bloody scene, and the sound of water in the hollow valley was like a quiet elegy, singing the compassion after the end of the battlefield to the fullest. The faltering survivors lay in pools of blood, as if it had become a ritual to sublimate their souls, staring at everything in front of them, how much of the blood that covered their eyes came from their own hands? They had the passion and desire to celebrate victory, but the fatigue of the war overshadowed all thoughts, and the Second War of Man and Bird ended with a narrow victory for humans, and purgatory, like the human world, finally became the realm of human domination.

"Judge...... It's the judges. A man pointed uneasily at the pitch-black figure on the horizon.

Everything in purgatory is red, except for the bird's eyes and the judge.

The darkness seemed to be a reflection of some inner thought, and the shadow of the judge gradually expanded, covering the endgame.

"It seems that the man has won......" The corners of the skull's mouth lifted slightly, and he ignored the panicked gaze of others, and walked slowly to the Sky Bird Cemetery.

News of the judge's appearance spread quickly, and the madman watched in silence as the judge disappeared into the Celestial Bird Cemetery. He remembered that Chen Jian had said that the Heavenly Bird Cemetery was likely to be the Black Abyss, and the Black Abyss was the exit of Purgatory. He rubbed the rosary in his right hand and said words in his mouth.

"Crazy!" Suddenly, he heard Bai Yao's voice, she was invisible, and the wounds and bloodstains left by the fight with the birds were not taken care of, so she hurriedly looked for Chen Jian and the madman, "Madman!

The madman shook his head: "By the time I come to my senses, both of you will be gone." ”

Bai Yao covered his head and walked over to the madman. She had just secretly buried Yumin and Gu Diao, so she was separated from the madman.

She said, "Me too, I didn't see you when I came back to God." ”

"Let's get some rest. The madman was unusually calm, and he sat on the muddy floor, his hands curled up in his knees, and his eyes lacked a hint of the madness of his past.

Bai Yao sat beside him: "Where did he go?"

"Where did you last see him?"

"That's when we killed Yumin. Bai Yao said.

"yes. ”

Hearing the madman suddenly say something out of place, Bai Yao felt inexplicable, she looked at the madman suspiciously, he didn't seem to intend to explain, the rosary coiled in the palm of his hand was still rotating at a uniform speed, he was like a wise man who comprehended the ultimate mystery of the world, staring at the place where the judge disappeared without shock.

"Do you remember what he said?" asked the madman, "about the Celestial Bird Graveyard, about the Black Abyss." ”

"Of course, I still told Ross about the black abyss. ”

"Oh...... Well, I can't even remember. The madman shook his head slightly, and his acquaintance with Chen Jian seemed to be just yesterday, the time in this world was confused, and even his memory became vague.

He paused for a moment and continued, "The judge just disappeared there. ”

"I saw it. Bai Yao's voice was very low, sounding tired, it was true, not long ago, all her own people had been killed, and she suddenly became the only bird left in purgatory, and when this happened, no calm white-eyed bird could maintain her mind, not to mention that she also killed many of her own kind who threw surprised glances at her. She fell into a deep nightmare, her compatriots who died at her hands were staring at her, their eyes were like sharp blades, piercing the blood mist floating on the battlefield to pieces, she boasted of her perceptive acuity, but now it became the greatest burden, she saw the soul of the dead waving its faded wings, white, yellow, green, and red eyes faintly moving in all corners of her vision.

She sat blankly in place, as if she had become a puppet that was not moved for anyone.

The madman sighed: "I thought about seeing the black abyss day and night, but after conquering the bird country, I felt that this matter was no longer important. ”

"You don't want to leave?"

Bai Yao had nothing to say, she really couldn't stand the torture of those fiery eyes.

"I just want to die. The madman said, "After living for a hundred years, people should be tired of living." His gaze was directed at the others, and countless figures of the decadent Tang were all over the battlefield, "This is true of the prisoners who have lived for a long time, we have been completely defeated." ”

He smiled bitterly, and his voice seemed to leak out of breath, and he blew out vaguely: "No desire, no desire." ”

After hearing this, Bai Yao sneered: "When have you become so sentimental? If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely be dancing and boasting about your great achievements." ”

The madman was expressionless.

"Perhaps. Stunned, he strung the rosary in his hand with a thread and put it back on.

"That's a lot less. Bai Yao glanced at it, and soon found that the number was not enough in the past.

"It's all gone. ”

The madman pointed to the place where he had just fought—in fact, he couldn't remember clearly, and in the dazzling battle, he could only find the general direction of east, west, north and south, and he couldn't even tell where he was now.

Bai Yao suddenly got up and said, "I'm going to find Rose, what are you going to do next?"

"What are you looking for him to do?"

"Out of purgatory, of course. Her transparent and weird face was dead, she knew that defeating the bird country was just an episode of escaping from prison, and the next journey was desperate. She has a goal, but she can't think of any effective way, as if the longing treasure is in front of her, separated from her by an abyss.

"Really?" the madman's words were still a little strange.

She moved her lips, sensing something was wrong. So he looked sideways at the madman. There was a familiar air about the madman—it was Rose's, and the two of them often discussed tactics together, certainly with a similar aura......

But Bai Yao, as a white-eyed bird that has always been full of divinity, felt abnormal from it.

"Maniac. She said, "Aren't you going with you?"

"Where are you going?" the madman looked stupid.

"Black Abyss. ”

"Dig a hole in the Sky Bird Graveyard?"

"That's right. ”

"It's so tiring. He said, "Isn't the white girl tired, let's talk about these things later, and wait until everyone is back to doing their best." ”

Bai Yao's brain was sore like an electric shock, and she carefully recalled what the two talked about after meeting the madman, she didn't see Rose, and the madman didn't see it...... Doesn't the madman really know where Ross went?

She tried to see through the madman's tired eyes to see the secrets hidden in the depths of his mind, but in the end she failed. The madman's gaze was not flawless, and he was unprecedentedly calm, as if he had accomplished something that had been planned for a long time.

What is going on with this feeling? Bai Yao covered his head. It's because she has killed too many of her compatriots that she has become suspicious, huh?

Her eyes fell on the rosary on the madman's chest.

"Rose—"

"Crazy, it's been a long time. A voice that had been heard several times suddenly came.

I saw the turtle swaying its body, swaying from side to side like a penguin step by step.
