Chapter 230: Buried Memories in the Heart
Not far from the sea breeze city, there is an endless mountain range, the mountains are densely wooded, the mountains are undulating, but there are few wild beasts, it seems very calm, at this moment Jiang Yan and his party followed the shadow here, she didn't know where the shadow was going, and the latter didn't say a word on the way, so she could only follow silently.
After walking for a long time, the shadow began to walk towards the top of a mountain peak, which was not sloping, and the mountain path was not very rough, so it was not very difficult to walk up. There is also the mountain wall that looks a little bare, and from the bottom she can see a qiē on the top of the mountain, she saw that there was nothing on the top of the mountain except for a few towering things, and she suddenly wondered how this ordinary and inconspicuous mountain peak could become a place where shadows have memories?
And when everyone was about to climb to the top of the mountain, the shadow suddenly stopped, and said lightly to Jiang Yan behind him: "You let your guards wait here, and you go up with me alone." ”
"Hmm!" Jiang Yan guessed that the shadow might not want too many people to disturb the purity of that place, so she turned around and said, "Uncle Li, you guys just wait here, I'll just go up with him." ”
"Miss, this..." The guard surnamed Li who took the lead looked at his young lady, and said with an anxious expression, if Jiang Yan had an accident, how would he explain to the master when he went back, but he saw Jiang Yan's insistent eyes, and just said, "Then Miss, you pay attention to safety, if there is something to shout, we will rush over immediately." ”
"Hmm!" Saying that, Jiang Yan followed the shadow and walked towards the top of the mountain...
Soon the two came to the top of the mountain, and Jiang Yan saw the shadow stop in front of a towering stone monument. Looking at the stele silently, his eyes showed sadness. Somewhat curious about why the shadow was like this, she also came to the stele, but when she saw the words on the stele. A buzz exploded in her mind, and she couldn't help but take a few steps backwards with her blank consciousness, if it wasn't for the shadow to help her in time, Jiang Yan might have fallen directly to the ground.
Her originally ruddy face turned pale instantly, her eyes became blank, and she muttered, "Impossible, how can this be." There's no way he's going to die, it's definitely a lie..."
"It's true, I saw him die with my own eyes." The shadow muttered to the side. Then he looked at the stele again, and on the stele were engraved four prominent characters - "Tomb of Longtian", and in the lower right corner of the stele was written "useless shadow carving". Here, Shadow chooses to bury the former him. Bury the past. said that from now on, he will start over and live an ordinary and depressed life under the name of shadow.
"No, I don't believe he's dead, I'm going to see him one last time." Jiang Yan rushed over crying, wanting to dig up the land to see if Long Tian's body was inside.
"Let him rest in peace!" The shadow stopped Jiang Yan and said flatly, he was a little strange at the moment. How could this woman, whom he had never seen before, be so excited.
After a while, Jiang Yan stopped being excited. Decadently sat in front of the stele, stroking the word "Longtian" on the stele with his hand, and told some things he had heard about him, tears continued to flow out of his eyes, and soon wet the clothes on her chest.
With Jiang Yan's story, the shadow gradually understood why the former was so excited when he heard the news of Long Tian's death, it turned out that Jiang Yan loved this continent very much, and hated the invader demon clan very much, the invasion of the demon clan made many people on the continent fall into a miserable life, and the misery was unspeakable, many people had to flee away from their hometown, and most of the people in Seabreeze City fled from other places.
On one occasion, she heard from an old man from an out-of-town that during the war, a man named the Dark Demon Messenger would appear to bring hope to the human race and lead them to defeat the demons, thus ending the war... From then on, she hoped that the Dark Demon Messenger would be able to appear as much as possible to defeat those invading demons.
Within a few years, her hope really came true, and the Dark Demon Emissary appeared in the continent, leading the human race to defeat the demons in the War Demon Domain and regain the lost ground... Afterwards, however, the Darkmarker vanished again.
And then every time the Dark Demon Messenger appears, the Demon Clan's plan will completely fail, so every time she hears the news that the Dark Demon Messenger led people to defeat the Demon Clan, she will be very happy, although the two have never met, but in her heart, she has a worship psychology for this Dark Demon Messenger who can save mankind from fire and water. Gradually, she fell in love with him, but at that time she didn't know the name of the Dark Demon Emissary, and it wasn't until the earth-shattering battle half a year ago that she knew his name from other people's mouths, and his name was Long Tian.
It's a pity that after that battle, Long Tian completely disappeared from people's sight, there was no news at all, she wanted to go out to find him at that time, but her father insisted on opposing it, saying that she was so weak that she had no ability to protect herself when she went out, so she was asked to stay in Sea Breeze City.
She knew that her father was telling the truth, her strength was too weak, and she was only going out to die, so she had been working hard to cultivate recently, hoping to go out to find him one day, but now, seeing his tombstone and hearing the news of his death, the pain in her heart was extremely great.
Seeing Jiang Yan's sad appearance, Shadow wanted to comfort her and say that he was the Long Tian you were looking for, but he couldn't open his mouth, he could only watch Jiang Yan cry silently in front of the tombstone, since he chose to start over, he had to forget the past, so that Long Tian would completely disappear from people's memories, his current name was Shadow, just a useless waste...
In the Demon Realm, Virgil has been observing the whereabouts of the Shadow, and he is very angry when he sees the Shadow's self-depravity during this time, and the dignified Dark Demon people are actually bullied by weak people like ants, and they are unwilling to fight back, which is really embarrassing.
He once wanted to teach this kid a lesson, so that he could sober up, but he also knew that in the current situation, this was basically impossible to succeed, and before the shadow knot was untied, no matter how he hit him, it would not have any effect, so he only gave him a period of time to calm down completely, so Virgil simply stopped paying attention to the shadow's whereabouts and saved him from seeing the annoyance.
Today he observed the shadows again, and found that the shadows had come to bring a mountain. In front of him stood a stone monument with the words "Tomb of the Dragon" written on it, and Virgil was not offended by this. On the contrary, there is a feeling of sympathy.,Back then, I also forgot my past in this form.,Take the name of a demon and start a new life.。
However, when Virgil saw Jiang Yan sitting in front of the stone tablet crying, his always calm heart suddenly felt a little bitter, and a memory gradually emerged in his heart, he thought that he had completely forgotten it, but he didn't expect it to be buried in his heart all the time. He began to murmur: "Xiaomeng, if I had gone back earlier, maybe you wouldn't have died..." Suddenly, he had not shed tears for hundreds of years, but tears were sliding down his cheeks at this moment.
Back then, he was the same as Long Tian, who was gifted by the blood pressure of the dark demon, and he was also a waste in the eyes of others, but the difference was that. He doesn't have the blood of the Dark Demon in his body. In other words, his talent is extremely poor. He once had low self-esteem, closed himself, and thought about giving up, but there was a girl named Xiaomeng who did not look down on him, but always encouraged him to cheer up.
Gradually, he fell in love with the girl, and the girl always said. Hopefully he will one day come and marry him, but he knows it. Only after he cultivates hard and becomes strong can he be qualified to say that he likes this girl, because he is the daughter of the sect master of his own power...
However, when they grew up, in order to consolidate the strength of the sect, the sect master married Xiaomeng to the young masters of other big forces, on the day of Xiaomeng's wedding, he was very painful, because his strength was too weak, he couldn't recover a qiē, so he thought about looking for death, living, there was no point in living.
However, in the process of seeking death, he encountered the Enma Knife left in the Destiny Continent, as the sword spirit, Kaede may feel the despair in his heart and a trace of desire for great power, saying that he can give him great power, but for this he has to bear a certain test, ask him if he accepts it, and then he accepts it without thinking about it.
The test of the Dark Demon Clan was as difficult as Long Tian back then, but he survived for the sake of the beloved girl, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten years passed, and he went out of the customs ahead of schedule without accepting the power inheritance of the previous generations of warriors in the Enma Sword, even so, he became a powerhouse in the early stage of the Yuegang Realm.
He has also thought a lot about it for more than ten years, since he can't be with Xiaomeng, he will protect her by her side, which can be regarded as a kind of love! But when he came back, he was desperate to find that the woman he loved Xiaomeng had died a few years ago, according to the maid next to Xiaomeng, Xiaomeng was not happy after marrying the young master, because the young master was very bad to her, she often cried about this, two years ago Xiaomeng really couldn't stand the torture of the young master, and committed suicide...
After listening to the maid's words, his heart was full of anger, and he uprooted the young master's force that indirectly killed Xiaomeng, and took the young master's head to worship Xiaomeng, and set up a tombstone of his own human name next to Xiaomeng's tombstone, and then he gave himself a demon name, called Virgil! Since then, I have left the Destiny Continent and entered the Demon Realm, starting anew...
If Virgil's memories were known by Chiyan, he would be very shocked, there was a sect that had just entered the first-class force was attacked, and he immediately asked for support from other sects, because the strength of the comer was very strong, and the rest of the faction quickly sent eight people from the early realm of the Yuegang Realm to support after receiving the news, but in the end, only one person came back with serious injuries, but that person died soon after he came back, and before he died, he only said one sentence: "It's terrible, he is simply a devil, just one person, facing all of us, In the end, everyone but me died. ”
After the incident, all the major factions on the mainland were ready to fight, but after several years, it was calm, and finally the matter was settled...
……
For a few days, Jiang Yan didn't take a step in front of the stone stele, and kept sitting there crying silently, telling her thoughts about Long Tian over the years, and eating some food brought by the maid Xiang'er when she was hungry. And the shadow had already left here, and he didn't know where he went, maybe he didn't want to see Jiang Yan crying, which would make him feel guilty in his heart.
When the night was about to fall, Jiang Yan stood up, rubbed her numb legs, bowed to the tombstone and left with the maid Xiang'er, and did not go back for a few days, her father must be very worried, she knew that she could not continue to stay here, so she could only come back to worship every once in a while in the future.
"Xiang'er, do you know where the shadow went?" On the way back, Jiang Yan's voice was a little hoarse and asked, after all, after crying for so many days, it is normal for her voice to be hoarse.
"I don't know, he hasn't been seen since the day after you stayed there, and you're asking him for news?" Xiang'er was obviously angry with Shadow's actions.
"Xiang'er, he may have something to leave." Jiang Yan defended the shadow's disappearance in the past few days, but even she herself didn't believe in this excuse.
"Miss, don't quibble for him, what's the matter with a person like him..."Before Xiang'er finished speaking, a person suddenly ran out of a wine shop away from them, but the person seemed to be unsteady, and just ran a few meters before he fell to the ground, and then chased a few people from the wine shop and punched and kicked the person who fell, and shouted that you dare to steal our wine, I think you are impatient...
Originally, Jiang Yan, who was physically and mentally exhausted for the past few days, didn't want to care about it, but after she saw the appearance of the beaten people when she passed by, she hurriedly called them to stop, because the person they beat was the shadow himself, who had disappeared for the past few days.
"What the hell is going on, why did you hit him?" Jiang Yan came to the drunken shadow and helped him up, and asked the person who had beaten him.
"Miss Jiang, this person drank a lot of wine in our store and didn't give money." The big man who took the lead saw the person coming clearly and hurriedly said.
"I paid for his drink, can I take him away?"
"Since he is Miss Jiang's friend, the money will be waived, and I hope to forgive me for any offense." Seeing that the eldest lady of the Jiang family was defending the person who stole the wine like this, Dahan guessed that the relationship between the two was unusual, and immediately said in a respectful tone.
"Take it." Jiang Yan took a gold coin from his arms and handed it to the big man, picked up the shadow's drunken body and walked forward, the magic is that even if he was helped up, the shadow still didn't let go of the wine jar in his arms, for fear of being snatched away by others. Seeing this, the people in front automatically moved out of the way, and Jiang Yan's guards hurriedly stepped forward to take over the shadow's body, and the group walked towards where the Jiang family was...
