Chapter 86 Falling off a cliff
"You are a man, this temperament will make a difference even if you lose your body and be a ghost general. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and smoothed the eyes of the lieutenant and blessed him, "I hope you can become a fierce ghost, just like the legendary strong ghost king." ”
Chu You, who had done everything, suddenly felt a little melancholy, if it wasn't for the crisis of the situation at that time, maybe he could give the deputy a more dignified way to die.
Just as he was sighing, in the corner of his eye, he felt that there was a grass and tree on the side of the mountain in the northwest direction, which trembled slightly.
Although it was normal for the wind to stir up, Chu You didn't know why he paid a little attention to it.
The grass grew at the very edge of the cliff, in the opposite direction of the canyon fissure.
When you look up, it's a vast world. In the distance, countless mountains of all sizes are lined up, and layers of chaotic trees cover them. The waterfall with tens of millions of tons of water crashes against the rocks, but only the rustling sound can be heard here.
"The world is so vast, and the legendary 100,000 deep mountains are probably no more than that. ”
Looking at the sky and valley in the distance, the mountains and rivers flowed, and the depression in my heart was swept away.
Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down on everything naturally has a different feeling, but this feeling is too mysterious and wonderful to be humane with outsiders.
However, it is extremely mysterious, and after being overjoyed, it is a melancholy that fills my heart again.
Everything has opposing aspects of positive and negative yin and yang, just as where there is sunshine there must be shadows, and where there is happiness there must be sorrow.
Although the shadow is repulsed, it is the product of sunshine, although happiness is happy, only sadness can go to a higher level.
"The mountains are here, and they will not be moved for thousands of years. Passer-by, meaning to drink alone"
Chu You sighed, but he understood that he was not alone. Since ancient times, there are countless literati and ink writers who have climbed the high peaks, and there are countless people who will feel the same way as him, but the ink is thin and the paper is thin, and it is difficult to express one ten-millionth in words.
Looking at the magnificence of this mountain, he walked forward more than ten steps, and then came to the grass and trees that were slightly shaking before.
And as soon as he arrived, he understood why he felt strange just now, and the reason for that strangeness.
Strange because the dwarf grass was not moving with the wind, but swaying slightly. And the reason for this strangeness is that there is a trembling hand hanging from the rock under this low grass.
"You can hide here. ”
Chu You squatted down and said with a smile.
The young swordsman hanging on the cliff raised his head and met the red-haired and red-eyed face, and in an instant, his face turned pale with fright, and his whole body trembled. His already nervous and shaky hands slipped and threw himself off the cliff.
But the young swordsman had just begun to appreciate the feeling of weightlessness and stopped.
His body rose slowly from the edge of the cliff until he met the red-haired and red-eyed face again.
"It's good that I caught you in time. ”
Chu You looked at the miserable white face in front of him and said with a smile.
"Ahh Uh-uh..."
The Taoist priest seemed to be terrified to the extreme, although he was speechless. A pair of eyes were so round that they almost cracked their sockets.
"Wouldn't it be better for me to look so scary?"
Chu You said that his blood qi was dispersed, and his body returned to the appearance of black hair and heavy pupils.
However, after removing the blood qi, not only did the swordsman's expression not ease in the slightest, but his body sank, and a fatigue that penetrated deep into his soul surged into his heart.
"It's really a little weak after receiving Shura's body, you see..."
Chu You took a deep breath and said.
But before he finished speaking, there was a sudden pain in his back. The pain was so intense that it almost reminded him of what it was like to be in hell.
And with this pain, his body was also uncontrollably convulsed, and countless pictures in his eyes alternated, and the ultimatum turned into a chaotic phantom.
At this moment, there was a slight push on his numb back, and then the whole person fell from the cliff along with the sluggish swordsman, and fell into the cold stream of the abyss.
With Chu You's fall from the cliff, there was only a skinny little ghoul holding a miserable green poison cone left on the cliff.
And after confirming his death, the imp also quickly collected the awl, blended into the battle group and could not be found again.
The valley is wild, and the mountain stream is trickling.
Chu You, who woke up again, opened his eyes and saw that the sky was already dark on the moon.
He lay on his back and stared blankly for a long time, like a vagabond who was decadent and full of poetry.
"Are you closer to me today?"
He muttered to himself. However, today's moon is indeed bigger than usual because of the halo.
Although the moonlight was beautiful, he didn't appreciate it for long, after all, there were still too many things in the earthly world that he needed to solve.
I twisted my body, and I only felt that at least seven or eight bones were broken in my body. He struggled to prop up his body with his arms, but he was cut by the gravel under him in an abnormal pain.
"Life is like that. ”
Chu You endured the pain and smiled bitterly, gritted his teeth and stood up, limping into the distance.
However, he had only taken a few steps to raise his legs, and his feet were on a puddle of slippery rotten meat.
Chu You pulled out his foot and said in disgust: "What's it!"
However, when he looked down by the moonlight, he saw that although there were maggots on this pool of rotten meat, these pieces of white robe cloth were sticking to them.
"Could it be the corpse of the swordsman?"
Chu You was startled, and after enduring the pain and bypassing this mess of meat, he didn't have the heart to go again. He sat down against a nearby rock.
"What the hell is going on?"
With a sigh, he looked away from the rotten flesh and looked at the place where he had just woken up.
But as soon as I saw the gravel that almost cut my skin, I suddenly realized that something was wrong. The gravel was not neatly crushed, and there was no sign of weathering and polishing in the corners. It doesn't come with the collapse of time.
"Was this smashed by my body?"
Chu You said in surprise, but immediately shook his head. The heart said secretly: If you do that, you can't survive.
But as he spoke, his gaze shifted between gravel and minced flesh a few times, and he looked up carefully at the mountain that was almost above the clouds. Finally, he sighed and said with a wry smile:
"It seems that I really smashed it, probably because the blood on my body gushed out in time to help me repair my body, so I saved my life. ”
After speaking, he didn't linger any longer, and took advantage of the moonlight to find a direction and walked away. Now seriously injured, he urgently needs a safe place to recuperate.
Although the army of hungry ghosts may be only separated by a valley, they can't go back. He knew who he was going to kill, and he knew how terrible that person was. Just because you can be lucky this time doesn't mean you'll still be lucky next time.
Before he had the ability to protect himself, he didn't dare to drag this crippled body back to die.
