Chapter 22: The Embers Breeze
The earth wept, and scorched tears of blood.
The surviving people on the ground also wept, crying weakly, heartbreakingly, hoarsely, and painfully.
A quarter of an hour ago, that huge lava cave was a small town, full of their loved ones and friends, their homes and their roots.
Now, a quarter of an hour later, it has become the town it once was, and the source of grief.
The cave spewed out not only the magma in the center of the earth, but also the blood and tears in their hearts.
Countless people pointed to the sky and began to curse.
They all knew that the man flying in the sky was very strong, and if he wanted to kill himself, he would probably not even need to take a breath, just one look would be enough. But at this moment, anger and hatred have made people forget their fears, forget the distance between each other, they only remember-
Avenge!
Blood debt and blood repayment!
Everything that could fly flew. Those who couldn't fly also flew in a flying car.
They carried knives, held swords, spears and halberds, picked up all kinds of weapons, and rushed towards Mr. Two with a fierce momentum.
Even if you can't touch the edge, even if you die, you have to spit on his face.
And those who can't fly and don't fly cars, take out all kinds of long-range weapons.
Regardless of whether they are good at it or not, and whether they have touched it or not, they have all shot all the arrows in their pockets at this moment, scored the last bullet, and vented their anger and fire, hatred and hatred to their heart's content.
In an instant, the sky was filled with dense black spots, all of which were crowds of people who had taken advantage of their anger.
"Second Brother ......"
At this time, Sanniang had stopped attacking, she looked at Mr. Er, who was indifferent, and said sadly: "It turns out ...... You're the one who fell into the devil!"
Yes, the person who fell into the demon at this time was Mr. Er, not Nangong, let alone the people who fired the magic cannon.
Because they are there to protect themselves, but also to save people.
But Mr. Two is not.
When the magic cannon strikes, Mr. Two can choose to dodge, force the connection, defuse, or ignore the ...... He has so many options!
But he chose a way full of blood and tears, resentment and hatred, and slapped it into the ground, destroying the town and cutting through the earth.
Let me ask, why should the people suffer such an unprovoked disaster?
In his eyes, they were indeed small beings like ants, but they were also living people! There were countless cultivators in the world, but who was not born from them and stood out?
They are small, but they are the cornerstones of the world!
They are the creators of history, the witnesses of the years, and the pioneers of the times!
They have always existed and will always exist!
But...... These are all imaginary......
Yes!
Looking at the indifference in Mr. Er's eyes, Sanniang knew that in his eyes, all this was nothing, not even as good as dust!
Such a second gentleman, who will be in the devil if he is not in the devil?
Killing Nangong is his obsession and the demon in his heart!
For these ant-like people, Mr. Two is not even interested in taking a look. At this time, listening to Sanniang's questioning, he suddenly smiled and said, "I'm in a demon?...... Yes, maybe...... Perhaps, from the moment I knew about the Withered Glory Seal, I had fallen into the path of demons...... But so what?"
He suddenly changed his words, looked at Sanniang, and said slowly: "Even if you become a demon, what if you become a demon, for the sake of the eldest brother, and for the sake of the family, I am willing!"
"I am willing to fall into the path of the devil and sink forever!"
"Because that's the only way to ...... That's what I'm going to do!"
As he spoke, the clamor of shouts of killing reached his ears, and those who were fearless with anger had already killed. However, at this moment, Mr. Two suddenly disappeared.
With such a simple step, the person had disappeared without a trace, leaving only the noisy crowd in the sky, dazed.
Sanniang's face changed greatly, because she knew how the disappeared second Mr. disappeared, and she also knew where he had gone now.
Heaven and earth breathe for rest.
It was with his great power that Mr. Two escaped into the passage of heaven and earth breathing, and thus disappeared into the sky before people - this is also the universal method that countless powerful people rely on to cross the void and drift in the flesh.
Mr. Two will, and so will she.
And there is only one place where Mr. Second will go: that is where Nangong is located.
Where is Nangong now?
He was in Liang Zi's arms.
Therefore, Mr. Er is definitely looking for Liang Zi, because as long as he finds her, he will definitely be able to find him.
It's that simple.
And Sanniang knows better than anyone else, as long as Mr. Er wants to find it, he will definitely be able to find it.
Geese have left a voice, people have left a name, even if it is the sand that the ants have climbed, it will leave its footprints, and the movement of all things in heaven and earth is actually traceable.
These traces are not visible to ordinary people, but Mr. Two can see them.
Although Liang Zi has the ability to hide her aura, she has no ability to erase the memory of heaven and earth for her, which is the most fundamental reason for Mr. Er's disappearance.
It's that simple.
So with the same step, Sanniang also disappeared in place, leaving only the noisy crowd in the sky, and became even more dazed.
"Now it's good...... The main culprit also disappeared out of thin air, and the only witness who was present was gone......"
"Then who should we seek revenge on?"
......
Suddenly, a breeze passed, and in the next moment, Sanniang had already appeared in a mountain depression dozens of miles away.
She took a step, and she was one step closer to the queen city - it was obvious that Liang Zi had been here before, because the air was still rippling with the slight fluctuations left behind by her breath.
And what is even more obvious is that Mr. Two has also been here, and it was just a moment ago. Because he has never concealed his aura, everywhere he goes, the beasts avoid, and the ants move.
But it's a pity that Sanniang came one step late.
The moment she stepped out of the passage, she just saw Mr. Two's clothes disappear into thin air.
So her clothes shook slightly, and Sanniang disappeared again. But when she reappeared, she was already a hundred miles away from Queen City.
Here, she suddenly found the aura that belonged to Liang Zi.
This shows that Liang Zi no longer hides her breath, and of course it is possible that she can't hide it anymore. However, the interesting thing is that the sources of the breath that have been found are a bit excessive, and Sanniang roughly perceives it, it is not less than three digits, and the distribution range is so wide that it is enough to be ten miles wide.
The farthest one is even more than a hundred miles away......
She followed one of the breaths to trace the past, only to find that it was not Liang Zi, but a wild duck.
She followed the second breath to trace the past, and found that it was still not Liang Zi, but a river crab.
At this time, Sanniang didn't try to pursue the third breath anymore.
Because there's no need anymore.
Because Liang Zi whimsically entered a true qi into the bodies of these birds and beasts, the wild duck and the river crab became the "she" in Sanniang's perception.
What's more, with Sanniang's understanding of Liang Zi, she immediately judged that among the hundreds of breaths, only one of them was true, and of course all the others were fake.
As for which shares are true and which ones are false, Sanniang doesn't know.
She really didn't know.
Even if she watched Liang Zi grow up, she couldn't figure out what kind of quirky thoughts that girl's mind was full of.
It is this "I don't know" that reassures Sanniang a lot.
Since he didn't even know that he was so familiar with Liang Zi, then Mr. Er, who didn't know anything about that girl, didn't even know. These hundreds of breaths, if they are verified one by one, even if it is Mr. Second, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time, right?
And during this time, who knows how much false breath that girl will continue to fake?
Sanniang thought about it, and suddenly thought of a rather important question.
The problem is that although Liang Zi's girl's ideas are quirky, most of them are not very reliable. With her brains, the odds of coming up with such a whimsical method as creating a fake aura with the help of birds and beasts are almost infinitely close to zero.
Since this is the case, then there is only one possibility: the person who came up with this method is not Liang Zi, but Nangong.
Thinking about this section, Sanniang's reassurance, she immediately felt a little more at ease.
This shows that Nangong is still alive and has awakened.
This also shows that if this idea is really Nangong's idea, then there can only be one final destination for them to flee......
Sanniang smiled, her figure flickered, and she disappeared in place again, and when she reappeared, she had already returned to her original place.
The so-called original place is not the original place where she just disappeared, but the far place where she first left, that is, the place where she was bombarded by the magic cannonball.
What "the most dangerous place is the safest place", these are fake.
Sanniang will come back here because the laws of heaven and earth here have completely collapsed, the space here has collapsed, and here ...... It's the best cover to hide your tracks!
The main reason why she will come back here is because she knows that with Nangong's character, he will definitely come back here!
Certain!
......
Sanniang sat on the edge of the lava cave and waited quietly.
She was very patient and did not show any anxiety.
Patience comes from her confidence in Nangong.
Three days later, the people around the cavern had been evacuated under the coordination of the officers and soldiers of the Valley of the Queens, and the town, which had been reduced to ashes before even a name could be left, had finally been completely transformed into a deserted place.
On the fourth day, in the early morning when the night was about to recede, Sanniang finally waited for the person she was waiting for, and Liang Zi helped Nangong to break through the night and appeared in the field of vision.
At this time, Nangong was still alive and, as she had thought before, had already woken up.
From a distance, I saw Sanniang sitting on the edge of the cave, beside him, there was a lava cave that had stopped spitting magma, and above his head, there was an unfinished smoke, Nangong suddenly felt that this scene was familiar, as if the lava cave was not a lava cave, but a stove that had just been extinguished, and those residual smoke were the cooking smoke under the sunset that year.
The three days of running for his life have exhausted and exhausted him from his serious injuries, but when he saw Sanniang at this time, he suddenly felt full of heat.
"Mother, I'm back......" he screamed hoarsely.
The familiar call reminded Sanniang of the teenager who returned late from school, and she naturally replied: "Eh, you're back...... If you're tired, let's take a break......"
After speaking, she raised her hand to stroke Nangong's head, infinitely gentle.
"No, I can't rest yet!" Liang Zi's voice suddenly sounded, reminding the two of them that this was not the past.
Three days of running around, so that this energetic violent girl also looks quite haggard, she has a slight cleanliness habit, and now she is dirty like a kitten that has just rolled in a mud puddle, but she doesn't care at all, her eyes are still bright, like stars that have just been washed by rain.
Liang Zi looked at Nangong and Sanniang, and said seriously: "The suspicious array we laid along the road can't confuse Mr. Second for too long, he may catch up at any time." So, we have to move as soon as possible. The best thing is to find a way to leave Queen Valley right away and go to Rivendell, where my father and my mother are there, and with them, we can really rest. ”
"Ah Zi is right. Nangong nodded weakly, and then added: "But before that...... We have to find the eldest young master and the uproar first, and then leave together, otherwise, it's hard to guarantee that the second uncle won't catch them and force me to ......."
However, before the word "body" could be spoken, he suddenly swallowed it back, and looked fixedly at Liang Zi and Sanniang's background.
Behind the two of them, there was the residual smoke of the magma, but at this moment, a slight breeze suddenly blew from the depths of the remaining smoke. After the breeze passed, Mr. Two appeared in front of him.
His expression was still so calm and calm, and there was not a trace of dust on his body, as if he had been waiting here for a long time, and as if he had never left.
"Second uncle......" Nangong sighed dejectedly.
In the past three days, I thought that I could buy enough time to make the next arrangement. But I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived with my front foot, Mr. Er's back foot came, and he didn't even have time to finish three sentences, which made Nangong really unwilling.
He looked up at Mr. Two and asked, "How did you see through it?"
"I've never tried to see through it. Mr. Two said.
"And how did you get here?"
"Because Sanniang came, I came. ”
Hearing Mr. Er's words, Sanniang's face instantly turned pale.
Only then did she suddenly wake up to the fact that she had forgotten the most important question after all!
Of course, I grew up watching Nangong, so I know his temperament well. But how can I not grow up with Mr. Two? How can I hide my own thoughts from Mr. Two's eyes?
It turned out that he didn't do anything, it turned out that he didn't have to do anything, he just had to follow himself quietly, and that was enough......
Thinking of this, Sanniang couldn't help but smile sadly.
She looked at the second gentleman in front of her, and then Nangong and Liang Zi, who didn't look back, said: "Xiaoshu, Ah Zi, you go quickly, go to the Queen City, find Yu Wutang, she will take you out of the Queen Valley." After you leave, don't come back, go as far as you want...... Go ahead!"
Nangong and the two glanced at each other, did not hesitate, and turned around and left directly, without saying a word from beginning to end.
Mr. Er's feet moved slightly, so he chased after him, but Sanniang also moved, and Xingluo scattered a piece of misty starlight with his hand, blocking the palm he had stretched out, so he couldn't catch up anymore.
One second...... Two seconds!
Only two seconds later, Nangong and the others had disappeared from Mr. Er's field of vision.
This surprised Mr. Two again.
Because Liang Zi is now tired and dying, and her true yuan has been exhausted, but why, the time it took her to leave this time is one second less than the one three days ago?
Where does her power come from?
He suddenly remembered the picture he had seen in the last second before the two left, he saw Nangong's hand, around Liang Zi's neck, pressed on her back, and in the palm of his hand, there was a faint light.
Mr. Two thought about it and found the answer.
Although Nangong's injuries were serious, strictly speaking, those were just external injuries, but his true qi, strange power, and other powers were still there. As for Liang Zi, she has been holding Nangong in the past three days, so Zhenyuan has suffered a huge loss, but her body is intact and she has not been injured in the slightest.
In this way, the two of them just complement each other.
So Nangong's power became Liang Zi's power, and the hand pressed on his back was the bridge between the two of them. The answer is as simple as that.
"Little guy, there are really a lot of tricks...... Mr. Two laughed to himself.
Shaking his head, Mr. Er shook off these senseless emotions, and then he stopped trying to cross Sanniang to chase Nangong and the others, and instead took the most serious attitude to face his third sister. Because he knew that if he wanted to chase those two little guys, he had to defeat Sanniang first.
The distance between Queen City and Qinglong City is actually not far, and with the speed of that elf, I am afraid it will not take half an hour to reach it. If they are allowed to really enter the Queen City, if they want to kill Nangong at that time, I am afraid that they will have to spend a lot of time.
Mr. Two didn't want trouble, so he wanted to solve it quickly.
And Sanniang is just the opposite, she doesn't expect to be able to defeat him, he just hopes to drag him as much as possible to buy more time, so he made up his mind to only fight and not fight hard.
However, from the very beginning, the battle has exceeded her expectations.
I saw Sanniang Xingluo pointing obliquely with his hand, and pointed at a very strange angle to a certain place on Mr. Er's right arm.
It is not an important meridian, nor is it a place where qi and blood gather, for others, it is just a muscle, and if it hits, it is nothing more than a little skin trauma. But for Mr. Er, it was a fatal point.
Because Mr. Two's world is in his hands.
But his world is not perfect - it can be said that there is no perfect world in the world except for Nangong, the real world that integrates the nine elements.
Imperfection means flawed.
If there is a flaw, then you can take advantage of it.
And the place pointed by Sanniangyu is the only flaw in Mr. Er's world.
Sanniang thought that Mr. Two would dodge, but who knew that Mr. Two didn't dodge, as if he didn't see it at all, he slapped her shoulder with a straight palm.
This surprised Sanniang and was pleasantly surprised.
The opportunity was fleeting, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she continued to go towards Mr. Er's flawed point, intending to exchange injuries for injuries. However, thinking that this was fatal, she quietly collected some strength.
As a result, this harvest led to tragedy.
In an instant, Mr. Er's palm suddenly changed and slapped Sanniang's fingertips.
In the next moment, the palms and fingers intertwined.
Silently, Sanniang suddenly shook her whole body, as if she had been struck by lightning, and stood on the spot. Then, a miserable smile slowly appeared on her face, and then, her body slowly collapsed.
Before being contaminated by the dust, this gentle woman like water has turned into a little starlight, and her body is the same as heaven and earth.
"Sanniang, you rest in peace......" Mr. Er looked at the starlight and mourned silently.
......
She knew that the flaw in his world was in his right arm, and of course he knew that the flaw in her world was in his fingertips.
At the last moment, she retracted her strength, but he did it with all his might.
So she fell.
So he's still standing.
......
In the morning light of that day, the wisp of green smoke that had been drifting for twenty years was finally extinguished and never rose again......
The embers are scattered in the breeze. (To be continued.) )
