Chu Qiuli had a dream.
In my dream, there is a bamboo forest, lush and green, all year round.
He stepped on the softness of the fallen leaves under his feet, and walked forward, through the bamboo forest.
Whoa!
The scenery in front of me suddenly changed, and at the end of the bamboo forest was a waterfall.
The silvery white water cascades down the mouth of the cliff like the Milky Way, and falls into the pool, creating a hazy vapor that envelops the surrounding scenery.
Vaguely, Chu Qiuli seemed to see a cyan figure standing on the top of the mountain, looking into the distance.
His heart flickered, and he muttered to himself: "One hundred thousand white practices fall into the sky, and look at the homeland in green clothes"
"Giggles. ”
The cyan figure on the top of the mountain seemed to hear Chu Qiuli's murmuring, so he turned his head at that time, looked sideways in the direction where Chu Qiuli was, and a burst of laughter like a silver bell came immediately.
"Brother Chu, what are you talking about?"
"Come up quickly, Daddy will know you're lazy and will spank you again!"
"Senior brother is coming back today, saying that he will bring a lot of food, if you come late, Tsing Yi will eat all of it, and I won't leave you at all. ”
The girl's voice like a warbler's cry rang back and forth in Chu Qiuli's ears, and Chu Qiuli was dizzy when he heard it, and his head was in a trance.
But out of some knee-jerk, he took a step and walked in the direction where the girl was.
The top of the mountain was a thousand feet away from Chu Qiuli's location, but Chu Qiuli stepped on his steps and went up out of thin air, as if there was an invisible but real staircase under his feet.
He walked towards the top of the mountain, and the higher he went, the more dense the fog became, and the cyan figure gradually flickered and brightened, making Chu Qiuli unable to see it clearly.
He panicked, and his steps sped up a little.
But the more you climb, the thicker the fog becomes, and the more blurred the cyan figure becomes.
In the blink of an eye, the cyan figure completely disappeared from Chu Qiuli's eyes, and along with it, there was also the waterfall and the lush bamboo forest.
Chu Qiuli came to a white world.
The relationship between heaven and earth, upper and lower, began to blur, he didn't know where he was, but he felt sad in his heart.
"Tsing Yi"
"Tsing Yi"
He muttered the name, but he didn't get a response, but the temperature of this world began to gradually decrease, and a chill hit Chu Qiuli's heart. He tried to wrap himself around himself to keep warm, but the results were not satisfactory.
The temperature was getting colder and colder, his face began to turn pale, and the pace of finding a way out under his feet gradually slowed to a halt.
He didn't have half the strength left.
Chu Qiu suddenly thought about it, he seemed to be dying.
And the bamboo forest and waterfall in front of the Holy Gate have long been destroyed in that catastrophe, as for Tsing Yi
I haven't heard her call him Brother Chu for many years
Thinking of this, Chu Qiuli sat on the ground sadly as if his soul had been extracted.
He had no intention of delving into whether he was in his dying dream or the Wangxiang Terrace under the Yellow Spring
All he knew was that he was going to die.
"Hatred"
But at this moment, a familiar voice came from my ears.
A figure also pushed through the mist in the sky at that time and walked in front of Chu Qiuli.
Chu Qiuli, who was already in a daze, was suddenly awakened, and he raised his eyes to look, only to see a figure bathed in golden light looking down at him.
That figure seemed to be an old man, but after all, he was wrapped in golden light, and Chu Qiuli couldn't really see his appearance, but he felt familiar inexplicably.
He looked at it in a daze for a long time, or because he was thinking about it, he suddenly opened his mouth and muttered
"Master"
Hearing this, the golden figure did not refute, he just stretched out his hand and pressed it on Chu Qiuli's chest, and a golden light poured into Chu Qiuli's body at that time, and then warmth poured out from his limbs, expelling those coldness from his body.
The golden figure withdrew his hand at this moment, and was about to leave.
But Chu Qiuli shouted: "Master, the apprentice is useless, he failed to avenge his master, and he failed to take care of Tsing Yi."
The departing figure paused slightly when he heard this, and after a long groan, he glanced sideways at Chu Qiuli and said: "There is no invincible thing in the world, and so is man, and so is the sky." ”
"Before the time is ripe, you can wait with peace of mind, wait for the boy to hold the sword, and wait for the butterfly to break out of the cocoon and return"
In the dark room of the inn, Xu Han's eyes widened as he looked at Mr. Wei, who was sitting cross-legged and bathed in golden light.
On the surface, Xu Han didn't show anything unusual, but he was somewhat worried in his heart.
This method of stealing life is really too mysterious, and Xu Han is not sure if Mr. Wei can successfully complete it.
And just as he was thinking about this, the old man with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes, and the golden light around him also dissipated at that moment.
"How is it?" Xu Hanyu immediately walked in front of the old man and asked.
Mr. Wei raised his eyes and glanced at him, and then said: "Tomorrow, you will be able to give birth to dragons and tigers." ”
When Xu Han heard this, his face suddenly turned happy, and he was about to thank him, but as if he had thought of something, he looked at the old man again and asked, "But why didn't I notice the backlash that Mr. said? Could it be that there is something wrong with this?"
Mr. Wei smiled faintly and stood up, "Old man has never been able to speak falsely. ”
"That" Xu Han thought that with Mr. Wei's temperament, he would definitely not deceive him in such a matter. But the so-called causal backlash that Mr. Wei had spoken to him before had never felt it.
"The method of stealing life, whether it is the longevity taken or the karmic consequences bought, are all the casters themselves, and the old man has no ability to transfer it to the little brother. Mr. Wei said this, with a calm expression on his face, as if he were stating a trivial matter.
But the truth is obviously not as simple as Mr. Wei said.
Those karmic fruits and the reduction of longevity made Chu Qiuli, who was in the prime of life, go to death.
And since Mr. Wei used the method of stealing his life to save Chu Qiuli, then he inevitably had to bear these things for Chu Qiuli, Xu Han really couldn't understand how Mr. Wei and Chu Qiuli's friendship could be like this?
But Mr. Wei obviously didn't mean to solve Xu Han's doubts, but said again: "I said that the price you need to pay to save him is far more than the price required for this life-stealing method."
"But you seem to have misunderstood what I meant, I don't want your life"
Xu Han was stunned when he heard this, he did subconsciously think that Mr. Wei's so-called price was the consequences he needed to bear after changing his life, but now that he thought about it, Mr. Wei never seemed to be sure of this.
Xu Han's face couldn't help but change, since Mr. Wei was willing to bear such a big price to save Chu Qiuli, then what he asked for would never be a mortal thing, thinking of this, Xu Han's face suddenly turned solemn, and asked, "What does Mr. want?"
The old man smiled, and said with a smile on his chin: "A promise." ”
