Chapter 197: Bloodstained Village
"I'll go wherever you go, and if I separate from you again, I don't know when I can see each other. Yinuo made his position clear in one sentence.
"You are an exorcist, born to exorcise demons. This is the path of your cultivation, and it is also a fate that you cannot escape. Go ahead, go and complete your mission, and then return to Xuanyuan Mountain, and realize the Great Dao. Half-asleep and half-awake, Xuanyuan Immortal Venerable's words echoed in his mind.
Fate, what is my destiny? What is the Great Dao? Why does she, a half-exorcist, undertake this so-called mission? Her greatest wish is to return to that night when fate was intertwined, and her mother did not die to save her, so maybe everything after that would not have happened.
"Are you scared?" a familiar voice sounded in the air, and a holy light appeared in front of him, and a slender white fairy shadow stood tall in the light and shadow.
"I didn't. I, I just don't understand, why should I be asked to do it. You have such a great ability, why don't you save the common people yourself. ”
The voice sounded again: "I am a cultivator, and I should not be in charge of the affairs of the world, nor can I take care of them. If I interfere, I may disturb the heavens and be punished. But I can't turn a blind eye, so that's why I've entrusted you with this great mission. ”
"Why me?"
"This chaos is a struggle between the human world and the demon world. And you, the child of the human world, are also the child of the demon, you are the opportunity to connect the human world and the demon world, only you can calm this disaster. ”
"Maybe you're looking for the wrong person, I don't have the ability. ”
"If you don't try, how do you know you don't?"
"I tried, but you saw it. Before I could return to Nameless Village, Yinuo was already injured. If I continue, maybe everyone around me will be in danger because of me. That's not what I intended. I went to Xuanyuan Immortal Mountain to learn art, just to become stronger so as to protect the people around me. If I can't even protect the people around me, then what's the point of my existence. ”
"Child, do you know that there are eggs under the nest. Open your eyes and take a good look at the world to come. "The white shadow exploded, and in an instant, darkness struck, like an indissolvable ink, enveloping the world. The land is in shambles, and demons and monsters are wreaking havoc, slaughtering the helpless old and the young. Screams,
The roar mingled with a song of death. Fire and blood stained the earth red. Black, red, strands of wisps, swirling and winding.
There is no other color in the world. The greenery is gone, the flowers are gone, and the land is barren. The air is filled with a thick smell of blood, and it feels like you're in hell.
No, it's actually scarier than hell.
"Do you want to see the destruction of life and rivers of blood?" The chaotic darkness receded, and the white light and shadow returned to the crooked eyes, and his words knocked on the crooked heart like a torture.
"I don't want to see it. But can I really do it? What do I do?"
"Believe in yourself and the answer is in your heart. In your heart. ”
The sound is getting farther and farther away. The white shadow flickered, like a burnt candlelight, and went out.
Crooked stretched out his hand and shouted, "Don't go!" as he shouted, the man sat up.
Her cold hand landed in a warm palm.
"I'm not leaving, I'm relying on you. ”
Crooked opened his eyes and saw Han Bai with a hippie smile. She threw herself headlong into his arms, and when she was upset, when she was in danger, he was always there for her.
"Why are you so nice to me. ”
"Fool, how can there be so many whys. Are you having a nightmare? Don't be afraid, I'm here, and I won't let anyone hurt you. Han Bai raised his hand and put it on his crooked back, gently and gently, as if he was afraid of breaking her.
Crooked leaned his face on his shoulder: "But one day, you will also leave me and return to the world that belongs to you." ”
"I don't leave, I'll always be there for you. The hot air sprayed on the crooked side of her face, making her both warm and reassured.
On the side, Yinuo opened his eyes and slowly closed them again.
*
When I'm in a hurry, Crooked will always miss the wolf king a little. If you have it, you can do it without a little bit, how easy.
In a place like Nameless Village, where no one knows where, even Hanbai's supernatural powers are not used. Otherwise, you can do it in the blink of an eye.
Walking and walking, before I knew it, it was dusk again. Yinuo looked at the valley in front of him and was a little stunned: "It seems to be here, but it doesn't seem to be it." After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly thought of something and ran a few steps forward. Then he shouted, "This is it, yes." ”
Crooked ran over and saw a cross mark carved into the cliff.
"Back then, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find it, so I left some markers. Walk through this valley and you're home. Yinuo bloomed with a sunny and bright smile.
The crooked heartbeat was delayed for a moment, and the word home seemed to her to be a relic of a long time ago. She never felt like she had a home. In Nameless Village, although her parents cared for her, she never felt a sense of belonging. After leaving the nameless village and finally finding a "home", she thought that she didn't have to be lonely anymore, but that "home" didn't want her.
All along, she has been a rootless duckweed in the water, drifting along the waters of destiny.
"Now that we have a direction, it's easy to do. Han Bai pulled the crooked one hand, grabbed Yinuo with the other, and reminded, "Don't let go." ”
It used to take most of the day's journey, but it only took a short moment to reach the other end of the valley. Yinuo looked left and right in surprise, and then looked at Han Bai: "You, what did you do?"
Han Bai said lightly: "I said, I am the dragon god. ”
Crooked felt that the scene before her was familiar, and she couldn't wait to walk quickly, through a small forest, to a small winding river.
"Here we are, here we are. This is the river where the mother gave birth to the child. ”
The afterglow of the setting sun did its best to shed the last rays of light in the sky. The smile that had just risen on his crooked face quickly condensed into frost. In the water, there is blood. At first, she thought it was the reflection of the setting sun, but when the red moved with the current, she realized that it was not the red light of the setting sun.
She drew the sword from her back, held it in her hand, and rushed in the direction of home. Han Bai and Yinuo noticed the crooked appearance and hurriedly chased after them.
Not long after he ran out, Crooked found a body lying on the road. Just like the animals in the forest, they died of exhaustion. Her crooked steps slowed down, and she had a feeling of uneasiness in her heart.
Yinuo swept crookedly and ran wildly. After a while, Yinuo's cry of pain was heard, followed by the sound of mournful crying.
For a moment, the crooked legs were a little weak. She knew what Yinuo's cry meant, and what she feared most had happened. If it hadn't been for Han Bai holding her up, she would probably have fallen.
The adoptive parents' voices and smiles appeared in front of him: "If, if, I can come back sooner, they won't die." ”
Blame enveloped her, and her chest ached as she pounded her chest, trying to get rid of the unbearable pain.
Han Bai knew that any words of comfort would not help. He hugged Crooked and stopped her masochistic behavior.
Crooked buried his face in his broad chest, tears flowed out violently, and he couldn't stop it.
When night falls, the mountains are covered in darkness.
In any case, Crooked still mustered up the courage to go to Yinuo. She couldn't let Yinuo grieve alone. When she walked home and saw her adoptive parents, who were dead in the courtyard, painful and angry, rose from the bottom of her heart.
Yinuo was half-kneeling on the ground, his head hanging deeply, and tears were falling like rain.
Crooked half-squatted down, and patted Yinuo's undulating back with his hand.
She understood his pain, and when she saw her mother Long Qi disappear in front of her eyes, she had experienced this kind of pain that was worse than death.
The night grew thicker and thicker, and the night wind sent a foul smell of blood.
A few red lights rose in the dark night, wafting leisurely.
"Do you smell it? smell it? ”
"Hey, hey, there's food delivered to your door again. ”
As the red light drifted closer and closer, the voice sounded again: "Demonic energy?"
"I smell it too. But it should be a little demon who is not deep, otherwise, we should have discovered it a long time ago. ”
"One, two, three, three. ”
"Whatever it is, the blood is drunk as it is. ”
He straightened up, his hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, and stared murderously at the blood demon who was approaching: "I didn't go to look for you, but you came to me, just right, I want to make you pay for your blood debt." ”
"The little demon looks very handsome, but his tone is a little bigger. With a thousand enemies, have you won?" Before the words fell, dense red light poured out of the darkness. Suddenly, the surroundings were illuminated by a terrible red light.
Han Bai was just about to step forward, but was stopped crookedly: "The revenge of killing my parents, I will avenge it myself." ”
"Parents, so they're your parents. ”
"Not really. ”
"However, I remember that the two of them were really affectionate. The man was willing to die himself, and he wanted to protect the woman desperately. ”
"Tut-tut, self-explanatory. ”
The squirming voice made the crooked tremble, "Suffer death!" she shouted, swinging her sword.
The sword light exploded violently, and the grand sword qi wave swung out.
Between the light of the sword and the extinction, the screams resounded through the mountains and forests, echoing for a long time.
*
"What's the sound?" In the valley, a group of embarrassed travelers gathered around a bonfire, and the young man in the center pricked up his ears and said in horror.
"Yun Gongzi, Xu is a beast in the mountains and forests. ”
"Really?" he felt faintly uneasy, and his heart pounded. He clutched his heart. Trying to soothe this bizarre feeling.
Xiao Ningzi leaned over towards Chu Yunxuan: "Childe, we can't do anything about hiding in the valley." Hey, you're suffering. ”
Chu Yunxuan patted him: "You have suffered." You could have gone, but you ......"
The others said in unison: "You are kind to my brothers, how can we be the ungrateful and abandon you." ”
Chu Yunxuan froze, speechless, his gaze once again cast into the mountains in the darkness, and the feeling in his heart was strange and indescribable.
