Chapter 44: The Viper's Last Words
The Heavenly Cloud Divine Domain has undergone drastic changes, and the wilderness environment has gradually begun to improve, not only has the climate gradually returned to normal, but there are also occasional rains or two.
Green seedlings occasionally sprouted from those barren lands, and four hundred miles west of the valley of trees, there was a small inconspicuous settlement, which was built in the crevices of the mountains, and it was difficult to find this place unless it was reconnoitred by the little strange birds.
Yun Ying took Lan to find a humble inn to settle in.
The little monster bird chirped and couldn't wait.
Cloud Eagle finds a fruit the size of a head through the space stone.
The size of the black crystal fruit varies greatly, the small one is only about the size of a fist, and the large one is the size of a water tank. When Yun Ying left the tree valley, he picked up a batch of them, which was originally owed to him by Sha Mumin, and it was nothing more than taking away some more interest.
This amount is insignificant to Tree Valley.
In fact, it is a priceless wealth.
The little monster bird circled around the fruit excitedly, and suddenly rushed up, it pecked hard, and cracked a small hole on the fruit, and a gelatinous liquid flowed out of it, this liquid contains a strong energy, and if it goes through some simple purification and refining methods, it can be made into black crystals with high purity immediately.
The little monster bird tastes as well as drinking a coconut.
Yun Ying has no way to feed this little thing, the price paid is not low, I just hope that the little thing will grow quickly, it is also a divine beast, the crystal perching dragon, the white jade dragon and lion, which is not a super strong existence?
The little monster bird seemed to sense the master's hatred of iron and steel, raised his head and squeaked a few times, then immediately turned his butt to him, and then continued to eat.
Where did the old drunkard go?
Don't worry about it for now.
Get some water first.
Yunying had a hard time all the way, and the water he brought had been drunk, so he had to find some in the settlement, but fortunately, since the climate changed, the water source in the wilderness has gradually become abundant, and it has just rained here not long ago, and water flows into this settlement from the mountains, and it is controlled by the leader of this settlement.
When Yun Ying took out a few weapons produced by the Divine Domain in exchange for two large bottles, and was about to bring them back to Lan, suddenly Yun Ying felt that something was wrong, and the little monster bird sent an emergency alarm message.
Yun Ying secretly screamed in his heart.
He hurriedly went back and pushed the door open to take a look.
The Sombra fruit fell to the ground, and the room was empty.
Yun Ying's face changed, Lan was captured? Yun Ying immediately judged the other party's location by contacting the little monster bird, and they had just left this settlement and had not gone far.
Who is so bold?
Whoever dares to hijack me!
Cloud Eagle hurriedly chased after him with teleportation,
The kidnappers did not leave, but only a few black-clad masked men, the first of whom was unmasked, with a cold face, long hair and a shawl, very beautiful, but with a kind of exhaustion, and a sharp long knife in his hand, squared on the little girl's face.
Just move a little.
The little girl's head fell to the ground.
Yun Ying didn't expect it to be these people: "Asha, is it you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lusha slowly walked out, her figure looking thinner than usual, her eyes hollow, as if she had lost some kind of look. When she saw Yun Ying, she revealed a kind of incomprehension, and something that made Yun Ying very unfamiliar.
Yun Ying frowned and said, "The Asha I know will not kidnap children. ”
"The big brother Yunying I know won't kill good people indiscriminately!" Lusha's two eyes stared straight at Yunying, that kind of gaze not only made Yunying unfamiliar, but also made Yunying feel stinging, she choked up and asked, "Where is the adoptive father of Viper?"
Lusa's eyes radiated pleading.
How she wished her adoptive father was still alive.
Yun Ying was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "He's dead." ”
Although everyone had already guessed it, when this sentence came out of Yun Ying's mouth, everyone still felt a slight change of color, did a character like a viper die in the hands of Yun Ying?
The ghost's eyes in the stagnant water are completely gray at this moment, as if they have lost the last color of this world all of a sudden, and the whole person seems to have no soul.
No way.
No way.
He clearly promised.
He never breaks his word!
Even if the viper would die, how could this kid kill him alone!
If all this is true, even if she pays everything, she will have to pay the price, and she will start to use the knife in her hand tightly. Lan felt the murderous aura, her face turned pale with fright, and she held back tears rolling in her eyes, but she bit her lip tightly and didn't make a sound.
Blue knows.
The teacher was even more helpless than she was at this moment.
"Asha, what are you doing!" Yun Ying clenched his fists: "You rescued this child, do you want to watch her die?
"Viper's adoptive father has done something wrong again, why do you have to kill him!" This was the first time Yun Ying saw Lusha's angry appearance, he had never thought that such a weak girl would even burst into a compelling rage: "With your ability, why do you have to kill people when you can leave!"
Yun Ying didn't know how to explain it.
The essence of this battle is the battle of the tree valley.
But aside from these standpoint reasons, a very important reason is that in order to protect Lusha, Viper has become the public enemy of the entire Divine Domain, how long can he support him in front of so many strong people in the Divine Domain? His end is destined to be a tragedy.
Yun Ying didn't want this tragedy to spread to Lusha.
But will Lusha understand Cloud Eagle? Obviously, she won't!
If Lusha is struck by the viper's death and ends up being what he doesn't want to see, Cloud Eagle will definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.
"Stop! Viper asked me to give it to you!"
Yun Ying felt a crystal full of cracks, which was a relic left by the Viper, and according to the agreement with the Viper, Yun Ying decided to give it to them.
The ghost looked at the artifact, and sure enough, she stopped moving in her hand.
Lusa walked over in a daze, and she held out a hand, and the moment she touched the crystal, it suddenly lit up from inside.
The crystal turns directly into a mirror.
A figure that was very familiar to everyone appeared in the mirror.
He was tall and majestic, in a long black leather coat, with a resolute face, a sharp axe, and a few scars at the corners of his eyes, and he came out of the mirror.
Everyone was taken aback.
What's going on?
The viper is back to life?
Lusa wanted to throw herself into the viper's arms and cry loudly, and she felt like she was crying with joy when she was gone, but the moment she touched the viper's body, she didn't feel any touch, passed through his arms, and fell heavily to the ground.
Cloud Eagle looked at the viper.
This is not a viper at all.
The viper did die in the tomb of the gods.
Yun Ying's burst of blows left him with no bones.
What appears in front of me now is just a mirror image.
This mirror image doesn't even really condense the entity, but just carries some kind of will and message.
"When you see all this, it means that I am dead, and I believe that Yun Ying will abide by Mo Yan and send the last words I want to say to you. ”
Viper smiled at Lusa, as if she could actually see her.
"Asha, are you crying again? Please don't feel sorry for me, people are inherently dead, or lighter than hair or heavier than mountains, my greatest pride in this life is to be able to start this coming troubled era with a crippled and rotten body, but the greatest honor in this life is to be your father, for which I have no regrets in this life. ”
Lusha couldn't stop crying.
The viper's expression became complicated: "Ghost, are you there? I have come back with a promise." ”
"I'm here, I'm here. Tears flowed from the ghost's dry eyes: "Why don't you look at me, you've always been like this, you've never looked at me properly." ”
At this moment, the viper turned around, his gaze crossed the ladder of life and death, and he was looking at the ghost in front of him: "I haven't done anything against my heart, but I feel guilty for you, I am too cruel to let you bear such a fate, and let you bear unbearable pain." The person who knows me in the world is you, and I know you better than anyone else in the world, and I have no way to repay you for what you have done for me. ”
Bang dang.
The ghost's knife falls to the ground.
She shouted at the mirror, "I don't want anything to repay!"
"I understand, you have always wanted to know the answer, you have asked many times openly and secretly, please forgive me for choosing to escape every time, because my future is destined to be dark, and I am afraid that you will also be dragged into this abyss. Now, I can finally answer this question, and this sentence has been weighing on my heart for many years. ”
The viper showed a warmth that had never been seen before.
"Now that I can finally let go of my burden, I want to tell you that I have always liked you, as much as you love me. ”
The viper's steely face is full of yearning and longing.
"In fact, I often think sometimes that if we are all ordinary people, how good it would be, I would definitely pursue you madly, so that you can live the simplest, most ordinary and happiest life, but it's a pity that I don't have the courage to say these words in front of you after all, you are the only person I am sorry for. I hope you and Lusha don't get consumed by hatred, it's my destiny!"
The viper's expression returned to its usual calm.
"Ghost, promise me to stop from now on, get rid of it completely, and don't take revenge, it doesn't make any sense, please take care of Lusa for me. ”
The ghost closes its eyes.
Two tears, wordless.
"Yun Ying!" Viper's voice suddenly changed, and he seemed to know that Yun Ying was here: "I want to tell you that this battle with you is the most painful battle in my life, you are a respectable opponent, thank you very much for letting me say such a dignified farewell." ”
Yun Ying didn't know what to say.
"Don't you still understand? Actually, we're the same kind of people after all. There was no hatred in the viper's eyes, only a relieved lightness, and a complex emotion: "I actually felt it at the last moment of your fight." ”
"I feel the passion of struggle flowing in your blood! I feel the desire to fight in your bones! I also feel the brilliance of heroes shining in your soul!"
"Your heart, your dreams, your wisdom, your temperament, everything you have, are all born for this era! Yunying, you are really a unique person, you are still too young to see clearly, but I believe that you will eventually relay us, and then continue this glory, and will do better than all predecessors. ”
"For your own beliefs, you and I can sacrifice, but we will never give in, even if the fire is raging in front of you, you will burn yourself without hesitation without regrets, this is the essence of your life, and the meaning of your existence in this world. ”
"Such you and I will never disappear and fall into the ordinary and trivial consumption, such you and I will never be able to endure the captivity, humiliation and bondage day after day, such you and I will never be cowardly and retreat to compromise and succumb to fate!"
"Because, without all this, our soul will lose its foundation! Without all this, our life will be like quicksand! Without all this, our body will turn into rootless duckweed! The world will lose its color, and eventually dry up day by day, and become a walking corpse, I hope you can wake up as soon as possible, don't be confused and boldly soar!"
"Since you are an eagle, you should fight the storm, you should contend with the thunder, you should stir up the storm,
Use your wings to cut through the earth, through the sky, through the darkness, and shine through the ages, don't let down the blood of our pioneers!"
Yun Ying didn't expect Viper to have such a high opinion of himself.
His figure faded into obscurity.
Time is running out.
There's no way to say it anymore.
He showed his last smile, calmly, relaxedly, without regrets, and finally slowly melted into the air, and the crack on the crystal mirror quickly deepened, and finally completely cracked.
"In this life, there are no regrets, although my body has fallen, the lights are shining!"
"Farewell!"
Lusha was powerless to kneel on the ground, and the ghost was silent, her eyes were full of tears, but her eyes gradually brightened, and she silently picked up Lusa on the ground, and finally led her out of here without looking back.
Yun Ying looked at the crystal fragments all over the ground and was stunned.
