Chapter 398: Dugu Awakens
readx;? Sure enough, as Dugu An Yao expected, everyone spent the afternoon in the process of digesting the food in their stomachs, talking and laughing, joking, Luo Xingchen also told a few jokes from time to time, which made the women laugh for a while!
In the evening, a few people finally eased up, but it was impossible to hurry, no way, Luo Xingchen had to take on the task of finding a place to live, fortunately, although there are no caves here, there are still a lot of ancient trees, and maybe because of the abundant spiritual power here, these trees are all towering trees that more than a dozen people can't hug, the high canopy covers the sky and the sun, and the wind is impermeable, which also provides Luo Xingchen with an excellent place to live!
With a light movement of his fingers, a true qi from Luo Xingchen's fingertips wreaked havoc in the ancient tree, and after a while, a towering ancient tree became hollow, and there were many holes the size of a needle's eye in between, so that Luo Xingchen could observe the scene of the outside world!
The girls were obviously a little surprised when they came in, but seeing that there was still a lot of space here, and it seemed to be quite safe, the girls didn't put forward any more opinions!
Soon the sky was completely dark, and the pearl-like stars began to dot the sky, and there was silence all around, and it was also pitch black in the tree holes!
It's not that a few people refuse to light a fire, if it's in an ordinary forest, the flame is undoubtedly a deterrent to beasts, which can make them stay away, but this is not an ordinary forest, this is a forest where monsters are crisscrossed, ignite? That's what a fool does, I'm afraid that a little fire here will immediately become a live target for countless demon beasts, and then in an instant, countless red lanterns will light up around you, bright as daytime, but you can't see it, because you can only become the dinner of those demon beasts, maybe you will still be divided by a few demon beasts!, for these hungry demon beasts, these are simply ordinary things!
"Brother Xingchen, why is it so quiet outside, it's so terrifying!" Shi Yawen leaned on Luo Xingchen's left, holding one of Luo Xingchen's arms with both hands, leaning his head on Luo Xingchen's shoulder, and said nervously with a small face, Luo Xingchen even saw a little cold sweat on her forehead, after all, in Luo Xingchen's eyes, no matter how dark it was here, it was no different from daytime!
"Hehe, little fool, it's just dark now, and those demon beasts haven't come out yet, you can just wait a minute, don't look outside!" Gently wiping the beads of sweat from Shi Yawen's forehead, Luo Xingchen said slowly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Oh!" Shi Yawen smiled sweetly, rubbed her head on Luo Xingchen's shoulder, and then pulled Luo Xingchen's sleeve and said, "Brother Xingchen, look, the sky, it's so beautiful!"
Luo Xingchen looked up, at this time the sky was completely dark, the stars in the sky were twinkling, one by one shining in the sky like a child's innocent eyes, as the saying goes, the moon and stars are rare, but it doesn't seem to work at all here, even in the starry sky, the bright moon in the sky still exudes bursts of cold light, there is no cloud around, only the bright moon and stars are competing in the sky, it is indeed a very beautiful picture, even Dugu An Yao, Liu Meng'er, and Bing Ning all raised their heads and looked at it, and their eyes were fascinated!
"Alas!" Seeing this, Luo Xingchen sighed and saw several women staring at him in surprise, Luo Xingchen said slowly: "The most beautiful picture often shines on sin, no matter how beautiful the moon is, it is difficult to beautify the darkness of the night!"
The girls frowned, obviously not understanding what Luo Xingchen meant by this, but in the next second, they heard an angry roar outside!
"Roar!" A demon beast's roar was obviously angry to the extreme, but it was also desperate to the extreme, as if it was an unwilling roar, and it seemed to be a dying struggle.
Hearing this desperate voice, the hearts of the women were greatly touched, and then they thought of what Luo Xingchen had just said, and suddenly understood a little - no matter how beautiful the moonlight was, it was only convenient for the night slaughterer to find his target, and such a night would only make the killing in this forest even more crazy.
Think about the world of monks again, isn't it the same? Open and secret fighting is always the constant theme, when it comes to madness and cruelty, human beings are simply better than these demon beasts, at least these demon beasts just have to kill in order to survive, and human beings are for the slightest bit of ** may cause killing, power, money, beauty, all of them are the root of **, the world of monks is even more cruel, simply put, ------- killing, no need for reason; strength, is everything.
Luo Xingchen's words made them think a lot, Shi Yawen and Liu Meng'er are okay, they are weak by nature, and they grew up in Huayumen, which is a good fashion, and their understanding of this aspect is not very strong, and Bing Ning is the same, as the daughter of the head of the family, her cultivation is not bad, and she has no such experience.
On the contrary, if you talk about it, Dugu An Yao, who grew up in Beixia since she was a child, has a deep understanding of all this, family cannibalism, cannibalism in the same family, cannibalism between master and apprentice, cannibalism in sects, all this has long been commonplace in her eyes, and it can even be said that she is not strange, she has long been accustomed to it, and she does not take these things in her eyes, but Luo Xingchen's words today made her feel inexplicable, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her mind, she just raised her head and stared at the sky without blinking, not knowing what she was thinking!
Seeing this, Luo Xingchen also knew that Dugu An Yao might be improving her state of mind, and it was a dangerous improvement, if she succeeded, it would definitely be a great benefit to her, and if she failed, then once her faith for many years collapsed, it would make her mood plummet, and even her Dao heart would be damaged, and she might not have an inch of progress in her life.
Therefore, Luo Xingchen hurriedly signaled Liu Meng'er beside her, Shi Yawen and Bing Ning quieted down and looked at her quietly!
Outside the tree hole, the roar of the beast is more and more, more and more intense, the forest is full of roars, even if you can't see it, a few people can imagine the cruelty of the fight, in order to survive, the ruthlessness of the desperate fight, which makes people feel cold, and a few people even faintly feel that there is a bloody smell on the tip of their noses, which makes people uneasy.
But in fact, this is just their imagination, because they imagine the killing outside, they feel the smell of blood around them, just like people imagine a big cake in front of them when they are hungry, and after imagining it for a long time, it seems that they can ask a truth about the fragrance of that cake!
Luo Xingchen obviously felt that the body temperature of Liu Meng'er and Shi Yawen around him was gradually decreasing, and his lips were slowly turning white, Luo Xingchen hurriedly injected a stream of true qi into their bodies to help them stabilize their minds. Immediately remembered Bing Ning, who was separated from him by a Liu Meng'er on the other side, Luo Xingchen was worried, and suddenly hugged Bing Ning in his arms, only to find that her body was already cold, and her eyes were full of fear.
I think it's because the strength of those demon beasts in the outside world is too strong, which has caused oppression to them, plus the psychological endurance of the girls is not strong, if Luo Xingchen hadn't found out in time, I'm afraid they would have lost their minds!
In the same way, he helped Bing Ning stabilize his mind, and felt that Bing Ning's body temperature was slowly rising, Luo Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Dugu An Yao opposite him again!
Who knew that Dugu An Yao was also looking at herself, Luo Xingchen was stunned for a moment, and found that her eyes were full of confusion and doubt.
"Luo Xingchen, what do you say cultivation is for?" After a long time, Dugu An Yao sighed faintly, and easily looked away at Luo Xingchen's eyes, as if he was talking to himself!
This is the first time Dugu Anyao called Luo Xingchen's name, Luo Xingchen was a little surprised, and he didn't know how to answer for a while when he heard her words!
"Heh, don't you know either, you don't know either......" Dugu Anyao smiled bitterly and shook her head, the confusion in her eyes deepened!
Seeing Dugu Anyao's confused eyes, for some reason Luo Xingchen felt a little familiar, that kind of confusion... How similar is it to himself, that kind of confusion about the future, confusion about the future, when he first came to this world, did he ever look at this world with this kind of vision? Luo Xingchen asked himself in his heart.
Unconsciously, he and Dugu Anyao had a feeling of sympathy!
"Interested in hearing my story?" After a long time, for some reason, Luo Xingchen raised his head and looked at the sky and said, his tone was a little sad!
"Huh?" Dugu An Yao glanced at Luo Xingchen, with some surprise in her eyes, as if she was a little unfamiliar with Luo Xingchen's sad tone, and then nodded slightly and said, "Yes!"
Luo Xingchen took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and then said slowly:
"I am the abandoned son of a family, the waste material of a family, just because I am destined not to practice martial arts, in a family famous for martial arts, I am like the following people, the guards bully me, the slaves insult me, my father insults me, my brother forces me, I live like a slave in that indifferent home, there is only one stupid girl around me to give me the only bit of warmth......" Speaking of this, Luo Xingchen paused with it, looked at Shi Yawen beside him, gently stroked her hair and continued
"I was truly desireless, and even my only thought at that time was to take this silly girl to an isolated place and live a fairy-like free life every day.
However, it is not as good as heaven, a sudden 'immortal', hehe, is an immortal cultivator came to my house, saying that he chose the best qualifications as apprentices, but it was ridiculous that I still believed it and went with him stupidly, only to learn later that he actually took a fancy to my anger!
A momentum that can trigger the Heavenly Tribulation, and I somehow followed him to the Meteorite Mountain Range, and finally I succeeded--died!" Luo Xingchen smiled, obviously amused by all this, although it was not 'him'.
"Brother Xingchen, then ...... you" Shi Yawen didn't know that Luo Xingchen was facing such a danger at the beginning, and now he hurriedly took Luo Xingchen's hand and asked!
"Then why did I come back to life?" Luo Xingchen shook his head helplessly and said: "Providence makes people, in short, I 'lived' to come, I fought with him to break the net, but I 'lived' over, and then I got a great opportunity there, a god-level inheritance, but this is all later, my soul-slaying sword technique was obtained there, I knew that you would work hard with me for 'it', how could I not practice this......" Speaking of this, Luo Xingchen glanced at Dugu An Yao on the side!
A smile appeared on Dugu An Yao's face and looked at him and said, "Family ancestral training, I have to follow!" But obviously, she has long since lost that killing intent!
"Oh, then why don't you kill me now?" smiled, Luo Xingchen said!
"When I get better, I will definitely continue to kill you, you have the ability not to run!" Dugu An Yao curled her lips and said cutely, this never-before-seen expression made Luo Xingchen stunned.
"Ahem!" Luo Xingchen coughed to cover up for a moment, and then continued, "At that time, my dream was to return home as soon as possible, show my strength to my family, so that they would no longer dare to despise me, and then I could go to the imperial court to obtain an official and a half-position, strengthen my Luo family, and then spend the rest of my life with my little fool! However, who knew that on the way home, I actually met another person......" Luo Xingchen smiled and glanced at Liu Meng'er, who was looking forward to it!
"I'm glad to have met you in this life, otherwise Yawen will definitely become a wound that I will never be able to let go!" Luo Xingchen kissed Liu Meng'er on the head, if it wasn't for Liu Meng'er's Huayu Sect to come forward, I'm afraid Shi Yawen would not be able to escape from the pursuit at the end of the world!
"Hehe, I'm also lucky to meet you, inviting you to join me Huayumen is the most correct thing I have done in my life!" Liu Meng'er was shy and sweet, and she was beautiful on Luo Xingchen's shoulder, her face was full of happiness!
"What about later? Could it be that you went to Huayumen with her, and what happened to Yawen?" Dugu Anyao had obviously been brought to the story by Luo Xingchen, and when she saw Luo Xingchen flirting with Liu Meng'er again, she couldn't help but say in a hurry!
"Hehe!" Luo Xingchen smiled, knowing that this girl was in a hurry, so he said slowly: "Who knew that when I went back, those people who were inferior to beasts in the family would dare to torture my little fool, they tied him in my room with iron chains, beat her with a whip, and tortured her......" Thinking of the original incident, Luo Xingchen still felt that his chest was full of anger, and Shi Yawen's bruised expression at the beginning was indelible in Luo Xingchen's memory for a lifetime!
"You're not the one who can endure all this!" Dugu Anyao said and fell silent!
"Yes, of course I can't bear it, at that time, I burst out with the strongest momentum, used all my strength, everything around me directly turned into sifted powder, and everyone inside, all of them died, died cleanly!" Luo Xingchen's tone was cold and cruel, but there was indeed a burst of warmth in the ears of several people.
"It's a little cruel, but it's your style!" Dugu Anyao shook her head, but there was not the slightest dissatisfaction in her eyes, for her, a native of Beixia, this was very common-
"Of course, I've never regretted it...... But I didn't expect that the mediocre emperor would send someone to hunt me down! My strength at that time was extremely low, and they were all cultivators, there was no way, Yawen and I had to escape, but in the end, there was no escape, so I asked Yawen to go to Huayumen to find Meng'er, and then I took them to the Meteorite Mountain Range alone.
This time I almost died again, but I didn't die, it was this time that I got the inheritance, the god-level inheritance, at this time my only wish is revenge, revenge, kill all those people, and then go to Huayumen to find them! Who knew that Creation made people, I miraculously went the wrong way and came to the Western human world! And there are inexplicably two more people around---- Lingxian and Lingxi!" At this point, Luo Xingchen's legend has really begun, it can be said that the previous ones are all petty fights, but Luo Xingchen's real growth is in the Western world, but few people know about this history, of course, except for Bing Ning on the side!
"The first time I went to the Western world, I was naturally unfamiliar with life, and there were two people around me, so I naturally couldn't act recklessly, but fortunately, I was lucky, I met her as soon as I arrived, Bing Ning, this iceberg-like beauty!" Luo Xingchen's words were a little frivolous, which made Bing Ning in his arms blush, and he hammered lightly in his arms angrily!
"With this beauty, I successfully blended into Crescent City, and then learned about some of the general system of the Western human world there......" At this moment, Bing Ning suddenly pinched Luo Xingchen for a moment, then looked at him and said: "I just said that how can there be a wild man in this world who doesn't even know about the people of the three empires and the three major academies? At that time, I didn't know that you were actually a 'spy' in the Eastern human world, and I knew that I would have directly 'clicked' you at the beginning!" Obviously, although it has been so long, Bing Ning is still haunted by Luo Xingchen's deception to herself!
"Hehe, are you willing?" Luo Xingchen smiled and kissed her already crimson cheek.
"I, I won't be reluctant, drive you away early, I won't be bullied by you!" Bing Ning lowered her head and said in a low voice, but her confidence was a little lacking......
"Haha!" Luo Xingchen smiled and said, "Then I met Lu'er at Bing'er's house, and then I fell in love with ...... over time" Speaking of this, Luo Xingchen hurriedly shut up and changed the topic and continued, "Later, we joined the Genius Academy, one of the three major academies at that time, and honed our training there...... A lot of things happened at that time, many things that I didn't expect, especially the Warcraft Jungle, which made me vaguely feel like I was being controlled by someone else.
Although I got more benefits that time, but I was extremely unwilling, can you imagine that someone gave your fate countless years ago? I don't believe it, but it just happened, and I was extremely unwilling, so at that time, the purpose of my cultivation was to get rid of everything, to be myself, to be Luo Xingchen, Luo Xingchen who is not controlled by anyone, until now, this is still my purpose, I know that this purpose may be very difficult, and it may take me a lifetime to achieve it, but I will not give up, always, in order to be myself again......"
"Be yourself?" Dugu Anyao muttered softly, and her eyes gradually glowed......
It is true that this is just part of Luo Xingchen's experience, about the Western world, Luo Xingchen has hidden a lot, such as the girl who stupidly said that he would wait for him--- Duanmu Zixue!
However, the meaning that Luo Xingchen wants to express has been achieved, since he was reborn in this world, Luo Xingchen's will has changed several times, from the beginning of the desirelessness and no desire, to the current battle to control his own destiny, he has experienced too much, but in Luo Xingchen's opinion, it seems that even all this has been set by others, which makes Luo Xingchen feel frightened and scared from the bottom of his heart!
Coming back to his senses, Luo Xingchen stared intently at Dugu Anyao in front of him, the look in Dugu Anyao's eyes gradually changed, there was confusion, struggle, and a faint yearning, Dugu Anyao's state of mind seemed to be mixed between these three, just to pursue the meaning of life!
"How can I be myself?" Dugu Anyao held her head in her hands, looked at Luo Xingchen with blank eyes, and asked confusedly.
"Hiss!" Luo Xingchen gasped, he clearly saw a void in Dugu Anyao's eyes, that's right, a void like losing his soul, it seemed that Dugu Anyao had become a walking dead in a moment, only a little light in the depths of his eyes seemed to be fighting stubbornly!
Luo Xingchen knew that Dugu An Yao's situation at this moment was very bad, her Dao heart had cracked, and the purpose of cultivation had been lost, just like a person who had lost his soul and became what she is now, and what Luo Xingchen had to do now was to help her reshape her Dao heart-
"An Yao, raise your head and look into my eyes!" The situation is urgent, Luo Xingchen doesn't have so many scruples, he raised Dugu An Yao's head with both hands, and then stared at her tightly!
Dugu Anyao's eyes are very beautiful, the eyelashes are very long, blinking and blinking, and the eyeballs are deep black, like a bottomless pool of water, very beautiful and charming, but the empty look makes this beauty a little fly in the ointment.
"Now think about it, why did you cultivate immortals in the first place? What unconsciously changed your original will? You are still you, it is the proud, old-fashioned Dugu An Yao, there has never been any change, what has changed, just the world, you, have always been the only Dugu An Yao, you ...... Do you understand?" Luo Xingchen brought true qi with this sentence, and the voice directly entered Dugu An Yao's mind, like a magic sound filling the brain.
"Why do I want to cultivate immortals, because I am the daughter of the Dugu family, I want to protect the Dugu family, I want to protect all the unfairness, I want to make those immortal cultivators tremble in front of me, I want to ......" Dugu An Yao said dreamily, her serious expression began to brighten up again, Luo Xingchen couldn't help but smile!
"But what's the use of it now? My favorite family sent me to the Beixia Palace in exchange for the powerful protection of the Beixia Palace, in exchange for their stability, and the Beixia Palace treats me as a furnace, my most respected master, the master who has taken good care of me since I was a child, is just to obey the orders of the masters, in order to make me stronger, so that that Emperor Shao Tian can get more in the future? My favorite and most respected people have betrayed me, what else is there to insist on? They want me to die, and I'll just die, give them back a life, give my parents a life......"
It seems that he has thought of something sad. Soon, the look in Dugu Anyao's eyes dimmed again, even the empty eyes shed two lines of tears, which made people feel distressed to look at, not to mention her miserable life experience, it was even more sad to hear it, and the listeners were in tears, and the three of Shi Yawen on the side had long been crying, hugging each other and feeling sad for this poor and pathetic woman!
Luo Xingchen didn't know how to persuade him, he only felt that a raging anger burned in his heart, and the killing intent that devoured the sky and the earth erupted beside him, but there was no residual power emanating, so you can imagine how angry Luo Xingchen was!
"Silly girl, since this is the case, then you should cultivate harder, who are you, you are Dugu An Yao, you are not the daughter of the Dugu family, you are not a disciple of the Beixia Palace, you are just a simple Dugu An Yao, why do you want to live for others, why do you want to obey the arrangements of others, what you have to do now is to cultivate well, and in the future, defeat Huang Shaotian, defeat the Beixia Palace, defeat the Dugu family, let them fear you, instead of giving up on themselves like this!" Luo Xingchen's voice was deafening, making the look in Dugu An Yao's eyes brighten up again!
Seeing that it worked, Luo Xingchen hurriedly said again: "No one is born to serve others, if you feel that you are worse than others, it can only prove that you are not as hard as others, if you feel inferior to others, it can only prove that you are not as strong as him, I believe that you are a strong person, and a person who works hard enough, in this case, then why should you be at the mercy of others, take your sword, don't care about the storms ahead, I use my sword to cut a smooth road!"
Luo Xingchen has completely entered Dugu Anyao's emotions at this moment, these words are not completely comforting Dugu Anyao, but more of a feeling, a true portrayal of his future, but he doesn't know that he has unconsciously changed another person's life!
The light in Dugu Anyao's eyes was finally as bright as the stars, especially later, it was already extremely dazzling, but in fact there was still no light, but the strong confidence in her eyes made Luo Xingchen tremble, he didn't know if today's words were a good thing for Dugu Anyao in the future, but at least for her now, it was definitely a good thing!
"Zheng!" The sound of the sword sounded, and Dugu An Yao's eyes had regained their confident look, as dazzling as the sun, and with a sharp aura, like a sharp sword, it seemed to give birth to a mad knife that cut through heaven and earth in both eyes!
After a long time, she closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she had regained her calm, she looked at Luo Xingchen, and said with a deep look in her eyes: "From now on, I am ----- Dugu An Yao!"
