Chapter 54: The Past

"See Xiuyao, right?" Cang Ran said, "She is the girl who was sacrificed to the sorcerer by the villagers and used to sacrifice heaven and earth to pray for the restoration of the village's aura." ”

His gray eyes were a little hazy: "She is so beautiful, she really deserves to be the most beautiful girl in Lingshi Village, even if I have traveled thousands of miles and thousands of miles, in my eyes, she is also the most beautiful girl." ”

His eyes, which had always been as sharp as knives, were rarely softened.

"So...... When I saw the white girl, I even thought for a moment that she was the reincarnation of Xiuyao. However, I know that's impossible, do you know why?" he stared at Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao thought for a moment.

"Xiu Yao isn't actually dead?" he asked.

Cang Ran laughed: "It's really smart. It is true that the aura of the Spirit Stone Well is gradually decreasing and becoming thinner, but it is not a punishment from heaven, but because it is gradually washed away by the river. The sorcerer in the village took advantage of this opportunity to publicize to the villagers that it was because the village was cursed by the heavens, and took the opportunity to ask the villagers for more property, and asked the villagers to sacrifice Xiuyao, the most beautiful girl in the village," he gritted his teeth, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared: "That's just because he has taken a fancy to Xiu Yao, and he has already had bad intentions!"

"So he asked the villagers to tie Xiuyao up and throw her into the bottom of the well, so that he could take the opportunity to possess her?" Wei Xiao said.

"Exactly!" Cang Ran gritted his teeth: "Xiu Yao is just a weak woman, she was thrown into the bottom of the well, the wizard pounced on her, trying to stain her innocence, Xiu Yao desperately disobeyed, hit her head against the stone wall, and immediately blood flowed down her forehead, the wizard thought she was dead, so he threw her body aside and ignored it. ”

His white-haired right hand struck the stone wall with a punch, and suddenly the stone chips flew and fell.

Wei Xiao looked at his angry face, this young man who seemed to be calm and wise had never been so out of shape.

He spoke slowly: "You know this matter so clearly, is it because you ......?"

Before he finished his words, Cang Ran cut off and said: "Yes, with Brother Wei's cleverness, I think you have already guessed, from the first time I saw Xiuyao in Lingshi Village, I fell in love with this beautiful girl, and it was for her that I stayed, and I stayed in this village for three years." ”

Wei Xiao didn't expect him to admit it so easily, thinking that this matter had been suppressed in his heart for too long, and he needed someone to talk to, so he said, "Since you like her, why don't you confess to her?"

Cang Ran was stunned for a moment: "If you have a crush on a girl in your heart, but you don't know her intentions, will you go directly to confess?"

Wei Xiao nodded: "I will." ”

Then he shook his head again: "It's just that in the thousand years I lived, I have never met a girl like that." ”

He sighed faintly.

Cangran also lowered his head.

The two people at the bottom of the well seemed to have their own thoughts, and they fell silent for a while.

After a while, Cang Ran said: "I don't want to confess, because Miss Xiuyao was already engaged at that time, and her fiancé was the son of a wealthy family in the village, named Tian Jing, and the birth was white and pure, with fine skin and tender meat." Because the Tian family dislikes Miss Xiuyao's poor family, although such a family affair has been booked, it has been delayed for a long time. On the contrary, Tian Jing likes Miss Xiuyao very much in his heart, and sends some beef and mutton to her house from time to time, delicious fruits, and often asks Miss Xiuyao to come out to meet at the wall. ”

"I often see Miss Xiuyao go out happily every time, but she always mixes a few words with Na Tianjing, and comes back with a frown, wanting to go up and comfort her a few words, but finally hesitates. ”

Speaking of this, his sword-like eyebrows couldn't help but lock.

Wei Xiao looked at him and said: "Since you secretly followed her out, and secretly followed her back, worried about her worries and happy with her, it can be seen that you have deep affection for her." In fact, she is just a village girl, and her fiancé is just the son of a rich family in the village, and you are the sword cultivator of Wanjianmen, with superb cultivation and dignified appearance, Tian Jing can't be compared with you at any point, although they have a matchmaking appointment, this mortal person hates the poor and loves the rich, and it may not be successful, why don't you take the initiative and work hard?"

Cang Ran was questioned by him, and finally couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"At that time, I was young, and I had already cultivated the sword path primordial god, and my lifespan could be as long as five hundred years, so I always thought that the future would be long. But I didn't know that Miss Xiuyao was just a mortal, and she couldn't afford to wait. ”

He lowered his head, as if he was recalling something, and only raised his head for a long time, and smiled miserably: "When the villagers tied up Miss Xiuyao and prepared to sacrifice to heaven, the Tian family avoided it, saying that this family affair was decided by the ancestors of the two families, and there was no basis for what he said at that time, so it could only be regarded as a temporary joke, and even Tian Jing hid and refused to come out, and when people asked, he only said: 'Since it is the will of God to ask Miss Xiuyao to sacrifice to the sky, it is her blessing, how can I leave her for my own selfishness?'"

"I was angry at the time, so I chased him to Tian Jing's house and killed him with a sword! His parents refused to let me go, and took a few servants to entangle me to the death, I am a sword cultivator, and I cultivate a sword heart, and I didn't want to kill, but that day, I was angry in my heart, so I killed the Tian family's parents and several servants together, and thus planted a demon heart. ”

Wei Xiao said: "Sword cultivation has always paid attention to the way of eliminating demons, you must not kill innocents indiscriminately, if you kill innocent people, you will break the way of the sword and enter the path of demons, not only will you not be able to improve, if you want to continue to cultivate, you will have to go to the outer path of evil demons!"

Cang Ran clenched his fingers and said, "After I killed the old and young of Tian Jing's family, I had a murderous intent in my heart, and I chased after the sacrificial point with my sword, but I heard from the villagers that the sacrifice was over, and they had carried Miss Xiuyao to Lingshijing. I chased all the way over, killed all the people who were carried, and jumped into the spirit stone well, but unfortunately, I saw the moment when Miss Xiuyao touched the wall and died!"

There were tears in his eyes, and the eight-foot man gradually wept silently: "I saw her eyes before she died, and suddenly I had a delusion, I felt as if she was reproaching me, asking me why I came now? It's too late! Her soft body slid down the stone wall, like a flower withering and withering." ”

"Sorrowful and angry, I rushed forward and slew the lewd wizard, but unfortunately I fell under his poisonous witchcraft, and seeing that my fate was about to end, I searched all over his body, and found a bottle of medicine, and poured it into my mouth without thinking about it, and then my whole body was like a fire, and my stomach was like a wrench, and I struggled to roll up and down on the ground, and rolled into the river at the bottom of the well. ”

He turned his head and glanced at the bubbling river in the darkness, and on the surface of the river, there was a white mist, rising silently.

The pale gray eyes were calm: "I thought the bottle was poison, but I didn't want to fall behind the river, so I was rescued." But when I woke up, I found myself half-lying on the ground, my hair turned silvery-white, long nails grew on my fingers, and dense white hairs began to grow on the backs of my hands, on my face, and on my body—and I was terrified, thinking that I might be going to become a youkai!"

"It wasn't until I looked down in the river and saw my face, my pointed ears, my fierce eyes, my long mouth, and my sharp fangs, that I was so sad that I let out a low howl, and I ...... I completely understood that I had become a werewolf! I, a god-level sword cultivator of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, had turned into a demon!"

"I can't go back. My Wanling Mountain, my brothers and sisters who practice together, and my respectable teachers, now, even a small man on Wanling Mountain who burns fire and does miscellaneous work will be disgusted with me! Because of the righteous path of the sword, the hatred of the demon clan is deep in the bone marrow, and the first iron law of the Ten Thousand Souls Gate is: Whoever sees a demon will be punished!"

Cang Ran stretched out his white-haired hands, covered his face in pain, and let out a long sob.

At that moment, Wei Xiao even sympathized with the werewolf in front of him, but he knew that a demon was a demon, and once he became a demon, people's compassion and compassion would be greatly weakened, no matter how upright and kind Cang Ran was before, now, it is not!

The sobs of the gray dye gradually stopped.

He slowly lifted his face from his hands.

What Wei Xiao saw in front of his eyes was a complete werewolf face - a white wolf head, his face was covered with long hair, his eyes were red, and he emitted a vicious and fierce light!

The wolf's mouth opened and let out a low howl, and even his voice became thicker: "Wei Xiao, although you have been relegated to the lower realm, you still have the opportunity to turn around and change your ways, re-embark on the path of heaven, and become a god again, but I don't even have a chance to be a new person! You say, am I worse than you?"

He opened his mouth wide and pounced, slamming Wei Xiao against the stone wall, the sharp wolf teeth shook in front of his eyes, and saliva and mucus fell: "You say, do I want to eat you, the god of heaven, to vent my anger?"

His face was hideous, and his wolf teeth lit up like two rows of sharp knives. "See Xiuyao, right?" Cang Ran said, "She is the girl who was sacrificed to the sorcerer by the villagers and used to sacrifice heaven and earth to pray for the restoration of the village's aura." ”

His gray eyes were a little hazy: "She is so beautiful, she really deserves to be the most beautiful girl in Lingshi Village, even if I have traveled thousands of miles and thousands of miles, in my eyes, she is also the most beautiful girl." ”
