Chapter 12: Escape from the Void
Chapter 12: Escape from the Void
A dazzling incandescent aura suddenly appeared on the shoulders of Chopping Jade and Thunderfall, and this aura suddenly enlarged, completely covering the two of them, but it suddenly shrunk and shrunk into nothingness - the Chopping Jade and Thunderfall, but with the shrunken aura, they were shrinking together. The lead string was originally to protect the thunder, and when he saw that the thunder was about to disappear, he was in a hurry, and he stretched out his hand to pull the thunderfall.
The incandescent aura shrank instantly, covering the slashing jade, and the thunder and the string disappeared together.
A burst of dizziness, the body could not be controlled at all, Lei Luo only felt that his body seemed to be flying at an extremely fast speed, suddenly, a sharp pain came, it seemed that he hit a hard stone wall, severe pain, Lei Luo suddenly fainted.
When I opened my eyes, I felt that something was wrong, and the sky I saw was so blue, it was definitely not the sky that Thunder Emperor Village could see, no, it should be said that it was definitely not the sky that could be seen anywhere. It was a pure, almost transparent blue, so blue that there was no trace of variegation, and the blue was crisp and thorough. One glance at such a sky, one will suddenly feel calm, as if this blue is the final home, or the beginning, of life.
Lei Luo sat up, the scene in front of him really scared Lei Luo, and quickly moved his body to lean back: Lei Luo was actually a cliff in front of him, how deep the cliff was Lei Luo didn't dare to look at it, and quickly looked back at the back, fortunately, there was a stone wall behind him, Lei Luo retreated to the edge of the stone wall, and kept panting.
After coming back to his senses, Lei Luo began to look at the surrounding environment: the place where Lei Luo was located was a protrusion of a mountain peak close to the top of the mountain, which must not have been artificially polished, but the mountain was too big, and a single prominent edge and corner could accommodate dozens of people. Lei Luo's back was against the stone wall, and the other three sides were cliffs, how did he get here? Could it be that he fell from the sky that was so blue that there was not a trace of variegation? But what shocked Lei Luo the most was that he was directly in front of him, opposite the cliff.
On the opposite side of the cliff is another mountain, and there is a cave at the foothold where the thunder falls, and it can be seen at a glance that this is artificially excavated: the entrance of the cave is a regular arc, and in front of the hole is a flat and regular open field, the field is afraid of more than 1,000 square meters, extremely flat, there is no grass on it, and a sense of depression rises for no reason.
Take a closer look at the cave, and there are two big characters on the top of the cave: Fengque!
There is a couplet engraved on both sides of the hole, the font is ancient, the pen is through, and the thunder is carefully recognized:
The universe has changed forever, and the fame of the past is only for a smile
Swim in the endless sky, and wait for a thunderclap to pull the peerless longbow
I don't know what these words are engraved with, but they are a few hundred meters away from Lei Luo, but Lei Luo can see them clearly. The dragon flying and the phoenix dance are done in one go, all the words are connected together, and they are actually written with a pen, and there is no pause in the middle to lift the pen, and the pen reveals a look at the world, unruly momentum. How many craftsmen and what kind of elaborate layout did it take to carve such an atmospheric work? But intuition told Thunderfall that the couplet was made in a moment by one person with a single tool. That flowing momentum cannot be corrected slowly with a knife and an axe.
Lei Luo has studied with Teacher Xuanqing for more than ten years, and has read countless allusions to ancient books, and he has no difficulty understanding this couplet. The owner here should be a person with great achievements, and for the sake of the woman he admires, he gave up his fame through the ages. This person travels in the world and rarely meets opponents, but because of a woman, he seals his sword and seals his sword, and lives in seclusion in this cave outside the world. Living in seclusion here, to put it bluntly, is also waiting for an opportunity, maybe waiting for the red face to nod, or waiting for a master to appear, and then be born......
In fact, there are many dreams when you are young, who does not have a martial arts world in their hearts. Happy enmity, riding horses and whips, cooking wine and swords, and children are long. How many times have we fantasized about becoming the protagonist of a book, taking our beloved with us, playing a sword and singing, and wandering the world...... Lei Luo thought of Wan'er again. But in the lonely mountain cliff, facing the unknown cave, the mountain breeze blows, the heart is full of knots, but there is no sadness when I think of Wan'er, but I feel that the years are rushing, the white horse has passed, I want to love but can't love, I want to love but don't dare to love, I regret it. And is there anything more important in the world than love?
Is a person's life, studying, traveling, and surviving just to live? Lei Luo has to work hard to fight for an opportunity, to gain fame, isn't it to find a good home in the end? If struggle is actually just for love, then now that Lei Luo has love, why don't I go for it?
The cave on the opposite side seems to have a magical power, pulling and inspiring Thunderfall, and Thunderfall really wants to go over at the moment, so I want to go in and see what is inside. But thunderfall is not a bird, and thunderfall cannot fly. As soon as he thought of this, Lei Luo suddenly came to his senses: What else do you say about getting by, where am I now? To pursue my love, I have to go back, how can I go back?
Thunderfall tried to look down the cliff, the white clouds were long, and the clouds were full of mist, as if the mountain had pierced the clouds, and the place where the thunderfall was already above the clouds. Looking up at the sky again, sure enough, there was no cloud, except for the blue or blue. If the thunder is really above the clouds, is there still air here? The air movement produces the wind, so where does the breeze come from?
In the cave opposite, a person came out, a figure in a black robe, this figure seemed to be familiar, Lei Luo seemed to have seen it in a dream, and felt that he was so familiar with him, but so unfamiliar.
Thunderfall could feel the intimacy in him, but Thunderfall had no idea who he was.
He just stood opposite, a few hundred meters away, as far as his eyes could see, Lei Luo could finally see his general outline: he was dressed in black clothes as black as inky gray, black from head to toe, although he couldn't see clearly, but the kind smile on his face felt so familiar. The figure's back was as straight as an aspen, and it exuded a powerful momentum.
"Who the hell are you?" asked Thunder in a loud voice. At this moment, what Lei Luo really wants to do is not just ask, Lei Luo really wants to fly over and hug him, and ask all the doubts in his heart, Lei Luo knows that all the mysteries will be revealed in him, and all the answers will be spit out of his mouth. However, at this moment, the thunder cannot be passed.
What answered Lei Luo was a burst of laughter, and a sentence that shocked Lei Luo inexplicably: "Heaven and earth are turbulent, the illusion is impermanent, the wind comes from it, quiet as a mountain, borrowing strength and force, following the trend, the virtual and the real are combined, and the qi runs through the yin and yang ......" "Thunder Hexagram Song", this is the sentence of Yu Lao to teach Lei Luo, how did this person know, could it be that the black shadow on the other side is Yu Lao? No, Yu Lao's voice and smile are still in front of him, Lei Luo is too familiar, and the person in front of him is definitely not Yu Lao, so, who is he? Judging from the inexplicable intimacy of this person, he must have no ill will towards himself, so why should he keep his distance from himself?
Just when Lei Luo wanted to confirm his thoughts and wanted to open his mouth to continue asking, the black shadow on the opposite side made a move, he didn't do any auxiliary sprint, Lei Luo felt that he didn't even bend his knees, it was so abrupt, shooting towards Lei Luo's side, like an arrow off the string, the speed was too fast, so fast that Lei Luo hadn't come back to his senses, he was already standing two or three meters to the left of Lei Luo. Lei Luo's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, but he couldn't make a sound.
The black shadow was now so close to Thunderfall, but Thunderfall had completely lost the ability to think, and should have taken a serious look at what he looked like, but Thunderfall looked at him like a fool, his mind was blank, and he didn't have the slightest idea.
Looking at Lei Luo's stupid appearance, the black shadow smiled faintly and said, "I hope you are ready?" As soon as the words fell, there were several ups and downs, and they disappeared into the peaks.
Thunderfall swallowed deeply, finally relieving himself. At this time, Lei Luo should give himself a slap in the face, or twist his thigh hard to see if he is dreaming.
Thunderfall had already thought about whether he was dreaming or not, but he still hadn't woken up. It can be seen that Lei Luo is not dreaming. But for the sake of insurance, Lei Luo still twisted himself, it hurt.
So, where is Lei Luo? Could it be that the aura created by the woman named Xiao Demon really made Lei Luo travel to a strange world? There is no reason, no matter where he crosses, it should be a completely strange world, but this cave, Lei Luo feels so familiar, and this man in black feels so kind......
Thinking of this, Lei Luo made a very bold decision: to jump off this cliff. Lei Luo is not crazy, at this moment Lei Luo's mind is racing, and he thinks of a lot: first, although he will feel pain when he twists himself, but Lei Luo is still not sure whether he is in a dream, the degree of the dream is deep, and he may not wake up when he dreams that he is killed, let alone the pain? Second: If it is not a dream, then the thunder will definitely fall to his death. When Lei Luo's life is threatened, Yinxian will definitely save himself. Lei Luo was sure that there was something important about himself that was the lead string, and what the man in black needed, and they would not let Lei Luo die. Third: Since she was brought here by Zhiwu, the woman called Zhiwu will definitely be responsible for herself.
By the way, where is the chopping jade, where is the string, and the ...... is called wounded punishment. I can't afford to waste time here, I have to wake up quickly.
But when I think about it, I really want to jump, and Lei Luo still retreats. He is just a scholar, not a battle-hardened warrior...... Just as he was hesitating, a nameless impulse rose in his chest, and the warm feeling of nothingness was so clear. This feeling gave Lei Luo inexplicable courage, Lei Luo bent his knees and stepped bravely, bravely rushed out of the cliff, the miracle did not happen, Lei Luo fell straight down, the wind was blowing in his ears, and the strong sense of weightlessness made Lei Luo unable to breathe...... Could it be that this time, I'm going to fall to my death here? At this moment, Lei Luo noticed that an aura appeared under him without warning, and his body fell from the halo, and finally, he fell heavily to the ground.
This fall is like falling from a ten-story building on the concrete floor, although it did not kill the thunderbolt, but the fall broke bones and cracked the flesh. Why? Why didn't that aura save herself? This aura was obviously made to stop worry, why did she let herself get hurt?
On second thought, if you fall from such a high mountain, if you don't have that aura, you might have fallen into a puddle of mud.
At this time, the severe pain came out, and the terrible thing was that the mind was extremely clear, and every sharp pain in the body scrambled to squeeze into the brain, and Lei Luo finally wailed out in pain......
Thunderfall tried to stand up, but nowhere on his body could exert his strength. Why didn't Yinxian come to save herself? Could it be that Yinxian also suffered an accident? In the midst of such intense pain, his mind clearly thought of all this, of the cave in the dream, of the cave couplet, and of the mysterious black shadow. How could a dream be so real? And what's the heat in its chest? Why does it encourage itself to jump down the mountain?
As soon as he thought of the warm current, his body became inexplicably hot, starting from his chest, and a warm current gradually scorched, and then spread to the limbs and bones. The place where the heat flowed was like being soaked in boiling water, and it was so hot that it was sweating all over, and I couldn't help but wail.
No, I can't die here, I still have a lot to say to Wan'er...... As soon as he gritted his teeth, Lei Luo tried his best to endure it. The heat went up to the top of his head and down to the tips of his toes, filling Lei Luo's body, and Lei Luo felt like he had been thrown into boiling water, eager to tear the flesh and blood of his body.
The heat gradually evaporated out of the pores, and Lei Luo's entire body was wrapped in a cloud of white gas, which flipped around Lei Luo, but did not disperse. In the white gas rolling, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder. There seemed to be tiny lightning bolts hitting the skin of the thunderbolt, is this what it feels like to be electrocuted?
It is getting hotter and hotter, more and more numb, people's patience is limited after all, and at the moment when the pain is about to break through the limit of thunder and tolerance, the burning heat on the body and the white gas around it disappear cleanly in an instant. Lei Luo sat up from the ground violently, feeling indescribably refreshing and relaxed throughout his body. Touching my chest, touching my head, where there is still a little pain.
Could it be that the heat flow in the chest is mending his body?
Looking around, Lei Luo couldn't help but smile dumbly, the place where he stayed turned out to be the cliff outside Leihuang Village where the ancient kite tree grew, and Lei Luo was familiar with this place.
It was pitch black all around, it was late at night, where there was a worry, where there was a cave, where there were couplets...... It seems that everything just now is an illusion of oneself. Even the injuries on his body seem to have never existed. The worry that rescued himself with his halo is also gone. I really don't know how she is now? As soon as he thought that Zhi Wei was facing the punishment alone, Lei Luo panicked and rushed to the direction of the Yu family......
"Hehe, recovered?" An old hoarse voice sounded, and Lei Luo fixed his eyes to see a dark figure standing in front of him. This black shadow turned out to be a string. It seems that the only aura saved Thunderfall and Yinxian to this same place, and the cave that Thunderfall saw just now was just a hallucination in his coma.
By the way, what about Chopping Jade? Where was he rescued? And to stop worrying, will his life be in danger? As a man, he can't let a girl pay the price of her life in order to save herself. Thinking of this, Lei Luo shouted out anxiously: "Senior, in order to save us, she is in danger now, let's go and help her!"
"To help her?" Yin Xian said helplessly, "How to help? Are we going to help her, or are we going to die?"
Lei Luo was stunned, for the first time in eighteen years, Lei Luo felt so incompetent.
"Since that girl can save us in the face of torture, she must have a way to protect herself. Yin Xian said solemnly, "She risked her life to save you, which means that she feels that your life is more important than hers, so you should save your own life." ”
It's good not to say it, as soon as he said this, Lei Luo suddenly felt a wave of anger in his heart, so many things have happened recently, but he was completely confused, so he said to Yinxian: "Then Yinxian senior, who are you, who are you to stop worrying, why are you so strong in kung fu? Why do you protect me? Why do you want to save me and cut the jade ......?"
Lei Luo asked endlessly, he wanted to ask all the doubts in his heart.
"Want to know all this?" said Yinxian solemnly, "Then you come and catch me, catch me, and I'll tell you everything." ”
Lei Luo's heart is on fire, he is like a flea in the drum, no matter how hard he tries, but he always can't see the outside world, and at this moment, the mysterious lead string in front of him, but he wants to let himself catch him, and he feels that the fire is added to the fire, Lei Luo leaned towards the lead step by step, and walked to a distance of only two or three steps from him, and the lead still did not react.
In the middle of the night, Lei Luo couldn't see his face clearly, couldn't feel him breathing, and couldn't help but feel a little fear in his heart, could he be the legendary ghost?
There is always a feeling that supports Thunderfall: this person will not hurt me. I can't control it, catch him first. Lei Luo quickly stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder, and he was about to touch the shoulder of the lead, but the lead still didn't move. But at the moment when Lei Luo's hand touched the string, the whole person took a step back inexplicably. It's not so much a step back, it's better to take a slippery step, because his knees haven't bent at all, and his body hasn't changed at all, but the facts are in front of him, and the thunderous grasp is empty.
Lei Luo still didn't give up, rushed up and grabbed again, this time he didn't retreat, just circled around Lei Luo, no matter how hard Lei Luo tried, but he didn't even catch a piece of clothing. Thunderfall felt that there was infinite power in his body, but there was nowhere to vent this power, and Thunderfall wanted to grab the lead string and ask what was happening, but ...... This feeling is a bit like Zhang Fei threading a needle. Lei Luo was full of strength and had nowhere to vent, so he was so angry that he stopped his body and roared.
Obviously, the man was also taken aback, and then laughed twice, and a sentence came out: "If you have the ability, come and chase me." Lei Luo was angry, and when he heard that the string was so provocative, he didn't care about anything, and chased after him with all his might.
