Without hesitation, I nodded again: "I've made up my mind." ”

She put the bottle away and gestured to the table.

On the table was a black rectangular brocade box, one foot long and two inches wide.

"Turn it on. She said.

I walked over and lifted the lid of the box. The brocade box is lined with an old layer of black velvet, and the fluff is almost smoothed. On top of the black velvet, a meniscus-shaped blue knife sits horizontally.

"Use that knife to pierce the tip of your left index finger and ring finger, and ......," she said, waving her hand, her face tired, and she said no more.

The total length of the knife is half a foot, and the handle and blade of the knife occupy half of each. I couldn't figure out what kind of material the knife was forged from, because all I saw in my life were iron blue and bright silver knives, but I had never seen a blue knife.

I carefully picked up the knife, and it was very light in my hand, without the heaviness of iron, nor the coolness of porcelain.

Although knives also have blades and backs, the blue blade looks extremely blunt and cannot be used to cut anything.

The strangest thing is that there is a slight warmth coming from the place where the handle of the knife touches my palm.

I couldn't help but spread out my palms and examine the round blue hilt.

"Regret it?" she asked, tired.

I shook my head, gripped the hilt of my knife, and brought the index finger of my left hand closer to the tip of the knife. Unexpectedly, the tip of this blue knife was extremely sharp, and as soon as the skin of the fingertips touched the tip of the knife, a red blood bead burst out, falling in the middle of the knife body, and then slowly infiltrated into it, until a faint red mark was formed on the knife body.

"There's something evil about this knife. I hesitated for only a second, then I took my breath and brought the tip of my ring finger close to the tip of the knife, causing a second drop of blood to fall onto the knife, overlapping the previous bloodstain.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger. In order to find out the deepest secret of Qi Mei and Geshu Shuisleeve, I did not hesitate to risk my life and was at the mercy of Geshu Shuisleeve.

Suddenly, I felt sweat oozing from the palm of my hand holding the knife.

Spread out the palm of your hand, where the handle of the knife touched the palm, two blood beads slipped down. The blood did not stay on the surface of the skin, but silently penetrated into it and re-entered my body.

It turned out that the two blood beads separated from the left index finger and ring finger, and after the baptism of the blue knife, they returned to the palm of my right hand, completing a strange cycle.

"Senpai, this isβ€”" I asked, but before I could finish my sentence, a sudden wave of anger surrounded me.

It was as if someone had pushed me into the middle of the ocean, and the waves were overwhelming and swept me to the bottom.

At this moment, what I heard in my ears was not the howling of the waves, but a cry of strangeness, unpleasantness, anger, and sorrow.

The sound came into my ears like a rusty knife, shattering my ear drum and stabbing it all the way to my brain and heart.

Then the sound became biting, gnawing, scratching, rubbing, like a thousand wild dogs fighting, a thousand rats biting the legs of a bed, a thousand wild cats tearing at dead animals, a thousand poisonous snakes hunting in the sand...... And all these sounds were in my ear drums, and I clearly felt that a thousand wild dogs, a thousand mice, a thousand wild cats, and a thousand poisonous snakes had entered my body, and were rapidly hollowing me out, turning me into a fleshless skin, turning me into a den of wild dogs, rats, wild cats, and poisonous snakes.

Behind all the strange sounds, I heard bursts of crying, and the crying was mixed with the sound of ** and wailing, which made my attention suddenly cry on the ** sound, and my heart was torn apart by various sounds.

Every cry reminds me of a tragic story, and all the tragic things I have encountered, seen, and heard since I was a child come to mind. I even thought of the scene when my eldest brother was pierced by a sharp knife in the Tiegong Temple, the sorrow of escaping from Daming Lake alone in extreme fear, and the loneliness of the Xia family after my grandfather's death.

If a tragic event can make ghosts cry endlessly, then before it is alive, there must be no way to solve this tragedy, and it will be extremely miserable, and it will make the living die and the ghosts cry.

Chinese believe in the existence of the Yin Cao Difu and the judge of the King of Yan, but at the same time, they also know that many grievances may not be redressed even if they reach the Nine Springs. Therefore, in the underworld, the clouds are also gloomy all day long, and thousands of ghosts cry at night.

Gradually, I felt like I had been entangled in the crying and kept falling, falling into the dark depths of the sea. No matter how deep the sea is, there is a bottom, but there is no end to my fall, and I keep falling, getting closer and closer to the ghost crying.

Later, I felt that it was not the ghost crying, but that my heart was crying while dripping blood, and that all the painful voices were made by me alone, and that I had taken all the sufferings and grievances of the world on my back to pay off the debts of the evildoers. In other words, I arrived there not voluntarily, but with injustice, to atone for all the sins of the world with a clean body, just like the martyrs on the cross that day.

"It's not my sin, how can it be imposed on meβ€”" I snapped my arms and shook my arms to break free from the cries of the ghosts that were entangled. However, it was only at this moment that I realized that I had fallen too deep and could not turn back, and the dark and bottomless abyss would be the burial place of my life.

When I looked up, it was dark, and when I looked down, the sea was dark, and when I looked around, the waves and the air were all black.

In such a dark world, it is impossible to be alone and awake.

"I-wronged-wronged-ah......" I raised my head to the sky and roared, and as soon as my voice came out, it was absorbed by the endless darkness, and it could not be transmitted at all. Besides, even if I am wronged, who else in heaven and earth, in the six and eight desolations, can avenge me?

Subconsciously, my long howl changed its tone, like a thousand ghosts crying, wailing more than once.

I have never had a moment of despair and helplessness in my life, all the strength of my body is gone, and I am left with a weak and cowardly body. In such a situation, it is impossible to survive, it is impossible to die, and even ending one's own life has become a luxury.

"Get up, get up, quick, give me the hand, I'll pull you upβ€”" A voice sounded nearby.

I couldn't see the person speaking, I just felt that he was unusually familiar.

"Go, stone, go!" he called again.

I reached forward and touched a warm and powerful hand, grabbed it immediately, and bounced on my knees under the pull of the other party.

"Go, go your own way, go!" Somehow, with a flick of his hand, he lifted me up on his shoulder.

I stepped on his shoulder, kicked hard, and jumped out of the water.

All the painful and strange visions disappeared in an instant under this jump, and I was still in this cabin in the woods, facing the tired face of Geshu Shuishui.

"You've heard the ghost cry, satisfied, aren't you?" she said.

I looked down and saw that there was solid ground under my feet.

"Is this a simple hallucination? The man I'm stepping onβ€”" Suddenly, my eyes were hot, and my whole heart was gripped by pain.

In the darkness, my last step may have caused the people who saved me to suffer a catastrophe.

"Yes and no. Human perception of the world is incomplete, and there is another state between illusion and reality. She replied.

"That's my brother Xia Cheng. "I clutched my chest, and my heart was like a knife and saw.

There is no doubt that it is my eldest brother Xia Cheng who is willing to save me with his life in the dark, and he is the eldest brother whose blood is thicker than water and whose flesh and blood are close to him. In this world, he is the only one who is willing to do this.

I stared at Ge Shushui's face, and asked astringently, "Since you can let me go to that place, you can let my eldest brother come out, right? As long as you can save him, let me do anything." ”

For a long time, I thought that my eldest brother was dead, and there was no place to bury him.

"You know, it can't be. We can only hear ghosts crying and dragons laughing, but we can't do anything. She replied.

"Is he still alive? Isn't he dead?" I asked.

"Ask your heart, and only your heart can answer the answer. She pointed to my chest.

I couldn't find an answer, and a voice in my heart was aggressively asking: "He is your eldest brother, he is willing to save you, can you be like him, give your life to save him?

This incident has become a huge hurdle in my life, which I cannot overcome or remedy.

Of course, I can die with my eldest brother, and it is just two lives, but in that case, no one in the Xia family will really be able to stand up for revenge. For so many years, I have been stubbornly condemned by my conscience, just for revenge.

"Thank you for making me cry and remembering the past. "I endured the heartache and bowed to Ge Shushui to thank him.

"Qi Mei is not mistaken, only you can survive the bottomless abyss. Ge Shushui sighed.

I can think of the so-called "bottomless abyss" as the place I reached in my hallucinations, and I can guess that that place is not in any physical place on earth, but in the human mind, consciousness, subconscious.

"Now, what you can help me do is get something from that place, but not now, but after your body and spirit are fully recovered. She added.

I didn't ask what it was, there was something in the "Abyss" that she needed, and there might be something I needed.

At the moment when my eldest brother rescued me from the abyss, I felt that he was so real, not the only soul of the deceased. I even felt that he had always stood alive in the dark, and when he saw me in distress, he was the first to rush out and sacrifice himself to save me.

If he had been there, this time I would have sacrificed my life to save him, and would rather fall into the abyss myself forever than lift him out of the sea.

"Senior, are you so sure that Mr. Qi and we can cooperate?" I asked.

Ge Shushui smiled faintly: "He also has what you want in his hands." ”

What I want should be the clue of the "Divine Water Mirror" in the Great Flood event, but there is no doubt that Qi Mei is also looking for that thing.

"Senpai-"

As soon as I spoke, Ge Shu Shuisleeve interrupted me: "I know what you want to say, I only heard the ghost cry just now and didn't hear the dragon laugh, right? Now you must have realized that the ghost cry comes from the depths of your soul, and I just used some 'blood secret' means to lead you to reflect on your heart, which is still relatively easy to do." On the contrary, if you want to hear the dragon laugh, you need a kind of fate, because until now Qi Mei and I can't be sure what it is, only that it is an earth-shattering force. In ancient Chinese legends, the dragon is a divine creature that can soar into the clouds, travel on land, and dive into the sea. As long as you are willing to cooperate, you will definitely have a chance to hear the dragon laugh. ”

Indeed, that's what I'm asking about.

Mortals may not be able to see a real dragon for hundreds of years, but they can see its brave and vigorous image from books and murals. If you can hear the dragon laughing, you will probably not be far from seeing the real dragon.

"We're going to leave it at that. Ge Shushui slowly closed his eyes.

I looked again at the simple, shabby-looking, but in fact hidden single hut, and guessed that if there was any other secret in the hut, it must be under the wooden bed where Goshu meditated.

The strange blue knife has been put back in the brocade box, and the strange feeling it gives me will never be forgotten in my life.

"Goodbye, senior. I bowed again, then walked out of the hut and retreated the way I came.

The technique of Qimen Dunjia is one of the ancient thaumaturgies in China, but until the arranger has not driven it, the formation will not show its full power. Therefore, as long as you are a person who can calm your mind and calm your mind, and are not confused by chaos, you can get out of the battle.

When there were still more than a dozen poplar trees from where Qi Mei was standing, I could already hear Tang Wan's voice across the bushes: "Mr. Qi, why hasn't Tianshi come out yet?"

I quickened my pace, bypassed the last few trees, and appeared in front of Tang Wan.

She was fully conscious, and was pacing anxiously beside Qi Mei, and as soon as she saw me, she flew to greet me.

"How are you?" she asked anxiously.

I gave me a light high-five, smiled and replied, "It's okay, I'm fine." ”

Qi Mei saw me and let out a long breath: "Okay, okay, let's go back to the hall to get down to business first, and we'll talk about the rest slowly." ”

I looked back at the sky, and the dragon-shaped clouds were gone, and the sky was once again pleasing to the eye.

"Xiao Xia, I-I'm really grateful that you can go and meet your insider, and you also know that some things in our lives are no longer solved by man, and we must resort to some divine power in the void. I knew early on that you were an extraordinary person and that you would be able to become great in the future. So this time, no matter how far you help me, I will never forget it. Qi Mei patted me on the shoulder again and again, and his attitude was much more affectionate.

I don't want to get close to him, because the smile on the face of this "first guest in the provincial city" is too vivid and vivid, which is prohibitive. Also, the scene of Geshu Shuisleeve using a crystal bottle to catch tears is also deeply engraved in my mind, and I can't forget it, and I dare not ignore it.

"Mr. Qi, I hope we can cooperate for a win-win situation. I reached out to Qi Mei, and he quickly reached out to hold it tightly with me.

"Xiao Xia, we will definitely cooperate happily, especially at the moment there is a big event, it must be multi-party cooperation and benefit sharing. If you follow me, you will only benefit, not suffer. He squinted and snickered.

I know that what he said is exactly - "kill Chu".
