The night is like gauze soaked in purple and red light, and under the dim street lamp, it glows with colorful psychedelic colors.

The lake is leisurely and swaying, caressed by the night breeze and ripples, and the surrounding scenery is reflected in it, like a demon country in hell, deep and dark, and varied.

The path is faintly lit and winding, like an entangled yellow dragon passing through the turquoise, spitting out patches of hazy mist.

Zhou Yan was expressionless, and strode forward, looking at this psychedelic world, where there was a little bit of light.

The so-called Bright Continent is just a good name for this world by the people of the Bright Way.

The world is full of darkness, and darkness is hidden everywhere in the world, just like this night, colorful and unpredictable.

Go to his world, fucking complicated, so many heroes, so many proud geniuses, they are enough to absorb the attention of this world, why is it so difficult for Lao Tzu to quit?

With such a big world, what's wrong with one less genius? What's wrong with one more ordinary person?

I Zhou Yan has no ambitions, so I want to eat with Uncle Kang and wait for death, is it wrong?

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Zhou Yan came to the lake, and couldn't help but pick up a stone and throw it into the lake.

The water splashed, and after a loud bang, a voice came from the lake on the other side: "Bastard, Lao Tzu and his good friend came out on a date, and it hinders you, right?"

Zhou Yan was stunned, then shook his head, damn, anything bad can happen when you are unlucky.

When I came here, I was all shown off.

"Why did you come out? Your injuries are not healed. ”

There was a clear voice from behind, this voice was clean and calm, like a gentle breeze, like a bright moon, which was originally very good.

But Zhou Yan was really bored.

He turned his head and looked at Bei Shao Mingyue in white under the moonlight, and opened his mouth to scold her, but he couldn't be ruthless.

It's not her fault, it's her own bad luck.

He sighed heavily, sat on the ground, and looked at the lake in front of him without saying a word.

Bei Shao Mingyue glanced at the dust on the ground, frowned, and said slowly: "You seem to be in a bad mood." ”

"Yes, I'm in a bad mood. ”

Zhou Yan didn't turn his head, but said in a deep voice: "I'm not injured, I'm not exhausted, I'm just unhappy, you know?"

Bei Shao Mingyue said: "I know, but don't worry, since Senior Guo promised to help you clean up the pollution, he will definitely do it." ”

"Are you so sure I'm contaminated?"

Zhou Yan roared: "Am I polluted or not, don't I know myself?

Bei Shao Mingyue was silent for a moment before she said softly: "You used to be confident and domineering, arrogant and self-disciplined, with inexhaustible energy, lofty ambitions, and noble sentiments. ”

"Since you went to the Nightmare Demon Cave, your cultivation has been wasted, and the Dao Ji is gone, leaving only a strong but chaotic aura all over your body. ”

"You become lazy, you become unfortitious, you lose your purpose in life, and you even begin to fall in love with low-level desires..."

"The contrast between the front and back is too great, and it is obvious that it is polluted. ”

Zhou Yan Huoran stood up and turned to look at the bright moon in the north.

Her face was so clean and exquisite, like a natural work of art.

But Zhou Yan had no intention of appreciating it at the moment, he said word by word: "But people will change!"

"A person who has gone through the struggle of life and death, and has finally been resurrected from the end of despair, is he still as determined as before?"

"It's not that I don't have a goal in life, I just don't want to get involved in the disputes of the rivers and lakes, to compete for fame and fortune, to fight with others, to go crazy to cultivate, break through, and fight against darkness. ”

"I'm tired of those things, you know?"

Bei Shake Mingyue's face was a little pale, looking at Zhou Yan, and she didn't know how to reply for a while.

And Zhou Yan also let go, he didn't want to pretend anymore.

There is no way to use anything, only to lay things out and make it clear, and maybe there is a way out.

He said in a deep voice: "I am a person who has died once, I know how important it is to live, I know how precious life is. ”

"So I'm fed up, I don't want to kill anymore, I don't want to be killed, I don't want to be scared all day long, I don't want to make countless enemies, and I don't want others to be afraid of me. ”

"There are enough heroes and geniuses in this world, there are strong people everywhere, there are legends everywhere, I don't want to be like that, let alone be who I used to be. ”

"I just want to sleep peacefully until I wake up naturally, stretch out my hands for clothes, open my mouth for food, serve beautiful maidservants, eat delicacies from the mountains and seas at any time, walk my dog, look at the scenery, tease the beauties at any time, and live every day decadently. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Yan laughed at himself, shook his head and said, "You won't understand, just like your family can't understand you." ”

"You don't care about the world's petty and despicable methods, and I don't care about the distinction between good and evil and the strength of fame and strength in the cultivation world, and I don't want to pursue that illusory path. ”

After saying all this, Zhou Yan only felt a lot happier in his heart, and the whole person was empty.

He looked at the moon in the sky, and his whole body was relaxed, and he had endured these words for almost a month.

The night sky is lonely, and the purple-red light paints on the dark sky.

The land is quiet, and the occasional whisper of insects can be heard.

Bei Shao Mingyue closed her eyes and digested it for a long time before she muttered: "So, all of this you did was to escape cause and effect, including the initial divorce post?"

"Not bad. ”

Zhou Yan nodded and said, "My goal has always been clear, because my decision was not impulsive, but a choice after careful consideration. ”

"For the first ten days after I woke up, I had been thinking about this problem, and it wasn't until the twelfth day that I sent the wedding note to Beiyao's house, and at the same time announced the retirement of the burial sword. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Yan looked at the north and shook the bright moon, and said: "You came to see me that day, and the words I said were also from my heart, I really had already thought about not cultivating, and you are too dazzling, we will not be people on the same road." ”

"I don't want to delay you, I really don't deserve you anymore, and I'm also afraid that your karma will disturb me, so I advise you to leave. ”

Zhou Yan sighed heavily and said, "But I didn't expect those words to move you and make you have to stay." ”

Bei Shao Mingyue was expressionless, but it could be seen that her eyes were complicated and she had been digesting this information.

Then she said: "Because the North Shake family is very cold, everyone thinks about interests, all they think about is the rise of the family, although I seem to be beautiful, but I can't live the life I want, no one cares about my feelings, they only care about the future of the family." ”

"So when I first met you, your words were enough to move me. ”

Zhou Yan spread his hands helplessly, smiled reluctantly, and said, "I'm sorry, I disappointed you, I don't like you as much as you imagined, and I can't become the kind of man you want." ”

"I just want to be an ordinary person, because I can't afford to go through those ups and downs. ”

In the end, Zhou Yan lay down.

The grass by the lake is soft and comfortable, and when you open your eyes, you can see the sky full of stars.

For the first time in so long he has been in this world, he is so relaxed and so open to everything.
