Chapter 127: Fairy Tales and Reality (Second Subscription!) )
As soon as the words fell, Chen Jisheng took a step forward, held the "Worthy Sword", and waved it lightly.
A fresh breeze blows.
The blue-white frost light on the "Worthy Worthy" sword tore through the dark sky and rolled towards the monster that Pan Xiaopeng had turned into.
Gu Xu knew that Chen Jisheng's use of this sword technique was called "Lime Sword Technique", which was a low-grade martial art that looked ordinary.
But in the hands of Chen Jisheng, it was displayed with a resolute momentum.
Seeing this sharp sword light, the monster let out a terrible wail.
Its red, bulging eyes were a mixture of madness and pain.
However, although this monster looked terrifying, it was only a first-realm cultivator before - even if it was devoured by Yin Qi, its strength would not be much stronger.
However, Chen Jisheng was a veritable Fourth Realm cultivator, and he obviously had the ability to slash this monster with a single sword.
Therefore, the moment the blue-white sword light touched the monster, the monster simply evaporated neatly, leaving only a black ash on the ground.
The courtyard and the entire neighborhood in the vicinity returned to calm.
Chen Jisheng sighed silently, his mind moved, and he took back the "unashamed" sword in his hand to the dantian.
"I'm sorry, Pan Xiaopeng," Chen Jisheng whispered to himself, "Please forgive us for not having enough ability to turn you back to your original form. The only thing I can do right now is for you to be free without pain...... If there is an afterlife, I hope you will be safe and happy, and you would rather not be a cultivator than suffer from the erosion of yin qi......"
At the same time, Gu Xu looked at the black ashes on the ground, was silent for a few seconds, and began to recite the "Death Mantra" softly: "The Imperial Decree of the Taishang, the ghosts of Chaoyou, the ghosts of everything, the four lives are ......"
Shi Xiaohan stood beside Gu Xu, and couldn't help but reach out and grab his sleeve - at this time, there was no blood on her pretty goose egg face.
She grew up under the care of her parents, listened to the maids and grandmothers tell the stories of heroes and heroes, so she always dreamed of being a heroic and respected heroine - in her cognition, the matter of slaying demons and demons is like a romantic fairy tale.
Her state of mind is like the children Gu Xu met in his previous life who longed to become Spider-Man or a hero in the green forest - the reason why they have such dreams is more because they think it is cool to be Spider-Man or a thief, rather than because they really understand the suffering of others.
But now, when Xiao Han saw Pan Xiaopeng turn into a monster with her own eyes and be killed by Chen Jisheng with a sword, she felt that the fairy tale in her heart was completely torn apart.
The sugar coating of life is quietly peeled off, revealing her cruel and real side.
She finally deeply realized that in the process of cultivating and killing ghosts, people would really die.
"Gu Xu......," she whispered like a mosquito.
"Xiaohan, what's wrong?" Gu Xu lowered his head and asked.
"When you cultivate in the future, you must be careful......" Shi Xiaohan's voice became weaker and weaker, "Of course, you also have to supervise me, don't let me go mad......"
She really didn't dare to imagine that in the future, Gu Xu or herself would become hideous monsters and need to fight each other...... What a terrible thing that is!
Hearing her words, Gu Xu let out a long sigh, and involuntarily reached out and touched her soft and long black hair, and combed her slightly messy hair with sideburns behind her ears.
"I promise you." He whispered.
According to Shi Xiaohan's previous temperament, she has always hated being touched by others on her head - because she is not tall, she is afraid that she will be taller and taller after being touched by others.
There have been many people, such as Cui Tianyou, who were beaten by her for touching her head.
But when Gu Xu touched her head today, she didn't reject it, but leaned on his side like a docile little milk cat, letting him straighten out her black hair.
Today is one day away from Shi Xiaohan's eighteenth birthday.
But she felt that the little girl in her heart who was ignorant of the world had died unconsciously.
…………
As for Wang Yang, who followed Gu Xu and Shi Xiaohan all the way here, his legs suddenly weakened, he knelt on the ground with a "plop", and cried out with a "wow".
At the moment when the monster turned into ashes, he suddenly understood that his friend Pan Xiaopeng had completely disappeared from this world, and he could no longer return to his side, have dinner with him, do tasks together, and play with him.
At this time yesterday, Wang Yang and Pan Xiaopeng were still joking with each other, calling each other "son" and asking each other to call themselves "father".
But now, these boring and childish banters are completely a thing of the past.
At this moment, Wang Yang even felt that if Pan Xiaopeng could be brought back to his side, even if he was asked to admit that he was the so-called "son", he would be willing.
"Pan Xiaopeng, you are such a bastard!" Wang Yang rubbed his eyes and said to the black ashes on the ground, "Master Chen and Brother Gu have said more than once that the cultivation of this kind of thing can be stable, and you must not rush it...... But why don't you listen? ”
…………
The second day of the twenty-third lunar month of Tianxing.
It is advisable to sacrifice, bury, plug holes, and sweep houses.
Do not marry, make stoves, and plant.
…………
That afternoon, Gu Xu, Shi Xiaohan and Wang Yang, led by Chen Jisheng, came to the cemetery on the outskirts of Yishui County.
Since Pan Xiaopeng had completely turned into ashes and left no corpses, they could only use Pan Xiaopeng's relics to build a tomb for him.
And not far from this well-dressed mound is the tombstone of Zheng Yu, the former governor of the Exorcism Division and who died in the "Nine Infants' Disaster" - Gu Xu also came here to pay respects on the day he officially became an official of the Great Qi Imperial Court.
At this time, Chen Jisheng mentioned the pension and asked Pan Xiaopeng if he had any living relatives.
Wang Yang shook his head: "He, like me, is an orphan and has no family. ”
Chen Jisheng sighed and didn't speak again.
With a thought, he used Zhenyuan to control the surrounding soil and bury the wooden coffin containing Pan Xiaopeng's relics in the grave.
Then he summoned a rock, turned it into a square tombstone, and engraved Pan Xiaopeng's name on it seriously.
The crowd stood beside the tombstone and was silent for a long time.
The cold wind ruffled their hair, and they didn't even notice it.
It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened that Wang Yang hesitated to speak: "Lord Chen, Brother Gu, Lord Shi...... Do you know why Pan Xiaopeng and I would rather go crazy and spare no effort to cultivate? ”
"Why?" Chen Jisheng asked.
I saw a bleak smile on Wang Yang's face: "Because ...... We are all children who sacrificed their lives to save in the "Disaster of Nine Infants" eight years ago! ”
PS: The second is asking for a monthly pass! (I'm still working on the rest of the chapters, and it should come out later)
