Chapter 110: Silent Night Thoughts
In the early morning, the fog on the Three Realms Mountain had dissipated, Lin Shouxi and Mu Shijing sat on the keel together and looked into the distance, and the deep pool lonely building in Tibetan Snake Village was faintly visible.
The hideous dragon lay in the middle of the mountain, but its posture was not majestic at all, but like a timid and afraid cat. It rests its head against the top of the mountain, which resembles nothing more than a rock against its backdrop.
Lin Shouxi gently stroked the white bones under him.
This was the first time he had come into close contact with a real 'living' dragon corpse, a skeleton that had gone through many battles, and the surface was full of pits, all the traces left by sword slashing and divine burning.
"I didn't expect it to end like this." Mu Shijing sat on the keel, his legs hanging and swaying, and the morning breeze swept the hem of his skirt, which was dazzlingly white.
Lin Shouxi nodded, he looked at the huge dragon skeleton in front of him, and he also felt very unreal.
The festival of scales had passed, but the dragon had not disappeared with the festival, and it was afraid of disturbing the villagers, so it hid itself in the village of the Three Realms. But this is not a long-term solution.
Lin Shouxi stroked the dragon's neck vertebrae and said softly: "It is worthy of being the Lord of the Three Realms Village, I have saved many people this time." ”
"Of course, the deity never speaks big."
The dragon's heart is like a huge easter egg, and its surface is attached to many dragon scales, which open and close with the beating of the heart, and the rhythm is like breathing. Its sound also came from there.
"It's a pity that you've become too big now, and everyone can't hold you anymore." Lin Shouxi said.
"I don't want to be in here...... Humans and dragons are not good, and I want to turn back into a kitten now. The three-flowered cat said helplessly.
"Aren't you dreaming of gaining power?" Mu Shijing said with a smile.
"Bad Holy Son, don't say cool words at this time, this power is not convenient to use at all." The three-flowered cat stomped its feet angrily, and the mountain also shook, so frightened that it quickly remained motionless.
"Or we'll cut open this heart and dig you out?" Mu Shijing asked.
"Don't!" Sanhua Cat immediately looked at Mu Shijing's eager appearance, as if he saw a natural enemy, "Although I don't know what will happen, I always feel very painful." ”
"Forget it, it's very majestic now anyway, just wait for you to get used to it."
Mu Shijing snapped his fingers and counted, and said: "The two true gods of the ancient level have long been missing, and the old gods of the ancient level are either hidden or sealed, and they are also hidden in the world, except for them, you are now very likely to be the real number one in the world." ”
"How does it feel to be number one in the world?" Mu Shijing asked with a smile.
"I was still happy when I saved people, but now I just want to change back." Sanhua Cat is really not used to this kind of power that can destroy the world with a single move.
Mu Shijing still wanted to make fun of it, but Lin Shouxi interrupted her words with a solemn expression.
"How to settle it down now is really a big question." He said: "The king of the blue is resurrected, the sacred mountain will be more or less vigilant, the day of the broken wall three hundred years ago is not a common enemy, if they know about it, they will never let it go, even if they don't kill it, I am afraid they will be caught and do all kinds of cruel experiments." ”
Lin Shouxi and Mu Shijing are just cultivators who have not reached the immortal realm, and they have no ability to protect it in front of the Divine Mountain.
"What then?" When the three-flowered cat heard this, she trembled with fright.
Mu Shijing restrained her expression, she gently stroked the keel, and she didn't want it to be caught like this.
"Bad Holy Son, didn't you say that I am the best in the world? Who can take the number one in the world? Sanhua asked.
"The dragon's pupils are divided into five colors, red, gold, purple, blue, and white. Although you now live in the body of the King of Radix, your pupils are only between red gold...... You are far from unleashing the true power of the Blue King. ”
Mu Shijing sighed and said, "You are now like an upstart who has obtained a treasure chest, and you have not yet found a way to open the treasure chest, so you have to detain the jewels on the chest and sell them in exchange for wealth. ”
"......" Sanhua Cat felt very desperate, thinking to himself how he could become a dragon, he was still such a useless dragon.
"Well, I'll talk to them, I'll tell them what I've been through, and promise to join the humans and help them kill the evil creatures...... What do you think? Sanhua asked.
"It's useless." Mu Shijing shook his head and said, "You are too simple, unless you can recover to the realm of blue pupils, you are not qualified to negotiate with Shenshan at all." ”
"I've become a dragon, how can I still be like a guinea pig."
The three-flowered cat was frustrated, and it realized that different levels encountered different opponents, and it used to be able to fight wits and courage with rats for a long time, but at this moment, it was facing a top cultivator of the entire human race.
"Lin Shouxi, you haven't spoken, you must have a way, right?" Sanhua still trusts him more.
Lin Shouxi witnessed the rising sun, and finally only said, "Run." ”
"What?"
"Run." Lin Shouxi repeated, "Flee north, keep fleeing, flee until they can't find you, and then come back when you can really control this power and protect yourself." ”
Sanhua Cat was stunned for a while, only to confirm that Lin Shouxi was not joking with him, and at the same time, it also realized that this was probably indeed the best way.
"In that case, I will be separated from you and from all of you." Sanhua Cat said softly.
It can't bear to be here. It has grown here for a year, and even every flower and plant is its friend, if it leaves, and then the big bad guy comes, who will protect its hometown?
"Parting is for a better reunion." Mu Shijing also softened.
Of course, the three-flowered cat can understand this truth, but it can't reach it for a while, it looks at the still lush sacred mulberry tree in the Three Realms Village, and becomes more and more confused, one of its great hobbies used to be climbing trees, and now if it climbs trees again, I'm afraid that the sacred mulberry trees can be frightened by it......
The sun slowly rose, the night darkness was completely illuminated, and the three of them looked at the morning sun together, silent.
In the silence, those memories were churning in Sanhuacat's mind again.
The broken city walls, the panicked fleeing crowd, the girl holding the flower pot, and the immortal who drove the magic weapon to rush at him...... And tears, screams, flying flesh, rotten bodies......
Once it quiets down, these memories come back to its mind, and it can't live in peace.
This is the memory of the King of Radiance.
Now that it occupies the body of the Blue King, these remnants of the images have poured in and become a part of it.
It now knew that it had broken the walls, that thousands of houses had been destroyed, and that countless more had died in the catastrophe—that it had inherited the power of the Blue King, but also its sins, which were like appendages that could only be dissolved by death.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Shouxi noticed that the figure of the girl in his heart was twitching and writhing.
"I didn't ...... It's okay. The three-flowered cat barely suppressed the painful memories and said, "What can I do...... I'm just not used to living ......."
"If there's anything unusual about you, tell us." Mu Shijing admonished.
"Got it." Sanhua Cat nodded, and said, "By the way, can you help me get my notebook?" ”
"What do you do with that?"
"Write a book."
"So hard?"
"Of course, writing books is my favorite thing, hey, hey......" Sanhua smiled silly.
It knew that it was just trying to find something to do, so that it would not be overwhelmed by the heavy memories of the Blue King...... Immersing yourself in another world is perhaps the best option right now.
"Okay, we'll get it for you." Lin Shouxi said.
"By the way, don't flip through the manuscripts that the deity has on the bookshelf on the right...... Especially the Holy Son. Sanhua's voice was a little nervous.
"......" Mu Shijing narrowed his eyes, and then said lightly: "Well, I know." ”
Leaving the Three Realms Mountain, Lin Shouxi stretched out his hand to Mu Shijing and said, "Give me back." ”
"What?"
"Cham Palace."
When killing the Demon God of Time and Space, Lin Shouxi lent Zhan Gong to her.
"This is my sword, why should I give it to you?" Mu Shijing was reluctant to return.
"If you don't give it to me, you'll rob it." Lin Shouxi said.
The great enemy has been eliminated, if she still dares to be arrogant, her dragon snatcher will not be polite.
This time, Mu Shijing was not afraid at all, she narrowed her eyes, and the words between her red lips were understated, "You are a dragon." ”
"What?" Lin Shouxi showed the same reaction as Zhong Wushi at that time.
Then, he immediately felt an invisible coercion from Mu Shijing.
The black-robed girl smiled faintly, her eyes revealed indifference, she was like the honor of ten thousand dragons, she could give any living creature her own bloodline, and she could crush all races with her innate nobility.
This change was not permanent, but it made her invincible for a short time.
Lin Shouxi didn't expect her to have this method......
His unilateral advantage suddenly became a mutual restraint on both sides, and if they had to fight again, it would be truly fair.
"Are you still fighting?" Mu Shijing asked.
"Hit." Lin Shouxi said: "Give me back the sword, we can compare pure swordsmanship." ”
Mu Shijing hesitated slightly, and didn't want to take advantage of the danger of others, but really returned the sword to him, she returned the Zhan Palace, for no other reason, but because the death certificate was used to it, it was more convenient.
"When? Where? Mu Shijing's expression was solemn.
There was always a lack of a real fateful battle between them, which was a flaw in her heart, and it would be incomplete if she didn't make up for it.
"Next time." Lin Shouxi took back the sword and immediately changed his words.
"What?" Mu Shijing was murderous.
"Yesterday defeated the Demon God of Time and Space, we haven't rested yet, and we will fight again one day." Lin Shouxi said without changing his face.
"No, it has to be today!" Mu Shijing felt that he had been tricked and had a tough attitude.
"Either choose a day, if you have to do it today, I will admit it directly." Lin Shouxi said lightly.
He had no intention of confronting Mu Shijing at all, and he tricked Zhan Gong back just to communicate with Xiao Yu.
Yesterday was Xiaoyu's monthly exam, which should have already ended, I don't know why she hasn't contacted herself so far, did she lose the competition...... Lin Shouxi was a little worried, he hadn't seen Xiaoyu for a day or two nights.
Retrieving the sword, he immediately put his hand on the sword and hooked the scabbard with his consciousness, but what he saw was a void of darkness.
This is...... What's wrong?
He was upset.
"Then choose a day." Mu Shijing saw that he was absent-minded.
Of course, she would not accept such a casual confession, and agreed to fight on a later date.
Passing through the Three Realms Mountain, the people of the village were busy repairing their houses, and when they returned, many villagers gathered around them, thanked them and asked about the whereabouts of the lord, they looked at each other, and just said in a muttered manner, "The lord 'Hokaka' has gone."
Came to the mansion of Sanhua Cat, Lin Shouxi found a pen and paper, and was about to go out, but saw Mu Shijing rummaging for something.
"Bookshelves...... The bookshelf on the right...... Manuscript ......" Mu Shijing muttered softly, his eyes sweeping up and down.
"What are you doing? Didn't she tell you not to rummage through things? Lin Shouxi reminded loudly.
"Didn't flip around." Mu Shijing said: "I'm helping her tidy up the table." ”
Mu Shijing said as he grabbed a few stacks of paper and folded them, pretending to be innocent.
When Lin Shouxi's eyes were removed, she secretly searched for it again, and finally found a small piece of paper under a book, her gaze quietly fell, and after a while, a strange color crossed the bottom of the girl's eyes, her red lips were pursed into a line, her body trembled, and her face was like frost.
She regretted it a little......
This manuscript should have been written by Sanhua Cat when they were bored at home when they were about to fight in Baixueling, because what was written on it was also their imaginary battle, and then some artistic processing was added to it, so that they could break through the mountains and seas, and kill all the way from the Netherworld to the heavenly court on the ninefold clouds, beating the galaxy and the avenue to be wiped out.
The first page is normal, and the second is ......
She was unfortunate enough to lose on the second page, and what follows is the tragic experience of the world's first beauty and powerhouse in her manuscript after being captured by her old enemy, and it is written that it is ...... Lifelike. If it weren't for the heroine herself, she would still be able to watch it with relish, but ......
Mu Shijing pinched the paper, pinched his finger bones white, and for a while, the entire mansion was full of murderous intent.
"What's wrong again?" Lin Shouxi looked at it in surprise.
"It's nothing." Mu Shijing smiled softly, and inadvertently folded it and put it in his arms, thinking that he would 'destroy the corpse' after no one was there later.
Lin Shouxi was also used to her moodiness and did not ask.
They brought pen and paper into the Three Realms Mountains and placed them on the bones closer to their hearts, and when the cats saw it, they couldn't wait to start creating it, so as to suppress the negative memories brought by the King of Radiance.
Sanhua also said that it intends to record the events of the past few days so that everyone knows about their heroic deeds.
Lin Shouxi has no opinion on this, but Mu Shijing cares very much, she chatted with Sanhua Cat alone, the content is nothing else, just let it do more artistic processing, beautify itself, Sanhua Cat would rather die than obey, saying that the creation of documentary should be more serious, how can it be adapted indiscriminately, it has a backbone.
Mu Shijing took out the stack of looted manuscripts from his arms.
Sanhua Cat was ashamed and asked Mu Shijing to keep the matter secret, and asked her how to modify the story by the way, Mu Shijing gave some pointers and let it create freely.
After delivering the pen and paper, Lin Shouxi went to the devil's lair.
Through this period of hard work, he has laid a good foundation for the art of alchemy, and the Demon Nest happens to have a Qingguang Ding of good grade, of course he can't miss it.
"The Devil's Nest is my territory, do you need to pay anything if you want to get something here?" When Mu Shijing saw that he was going to take the crown, he immediately remembered the identity of his Demon Nest Holy Son.
"When I am done, I can give you some pills." Lin Shouxi swore an oath.
"How to give?" Mu Shijing was puzzled.
She has also read the alchemy in the devil's nest, the refining of the ding in the body is not as good as the outside of the body, usually only available to herself, how can she share it with others?
Then, she remembered the title of the scroll and instantly understood.
"Get out." Mu Shijing said coldly, "Go and tell your fiancée about this." ”
This is angry talk for Mu Shijing, but for Lin Shouxi, it is one of the most important things next.
The fog in the Three Realms Mountain has gone, and the road ahead is unimpeded, and after properly dealing with the affairs here, he will embark on the return journey to find Xiao He's whereabouts.
Mu Shijing returned to the Demon Nest, no one dared to stop her, she first demolished the façade of the Demon Nest and changed it to the Bright Sect, and then killed the top ten wicked people selected last time, and redrafted a detailed and righteous door rule. Then she took out the black roll and began to delve into it, hoping to find a way to help Sanhua Cat.
Although Mu Shijing often ridicules the three-flowered cat on weekdays, she actually likes it very much, otherwise she wouldn't often hold it in her arms.
Lin Shouxi, according to the record in the book, tried to refine Qingguangding in the back mountain.
Refining the Ding into the body is tantamount to letting the oil perfectly integrate into the water, Lin Shouxi sat for two hours, and never knew what to do, he gradually felt tired, and wanted to give up for a while, but this exhaustion unexpectedly helped him, his body and mind became 'lazy' in exhaustion, and his qi became lifeless.
This feeling coincides with Ding's state.
It is no wonder that the first time the author of the book practiced the tripod was to meditate until he was almost dying, it was not because he was not talented, nor was it because he had a desperate epiphany to survive, but because he had to go through the way when refining the tripod.
After entering this state, the heavens and the earth were empty, and Lin Shouxi's consciousness only had the tripod that spouted snowflakes, and they sat opposite each other, as if they were discussing the Tao and contemplating, and they were also like exchanging souls.
Boom –
The wind and snow in the back mountain of the devil's nest suddenly fell silent.
Because Qingguangding no longer spits snowflakes.
It was like it had lost its soul and had become dull.
At the same time, what appeared in the qi pill in Lin Shouxi's body was no longer the shadow of a ding, but a real and clear ding, which swallowed the wind and spit snow, making him cold.
The cold suddenly attacked his body, Lin Shouxi sat on the rock, his eyebrows and hair were full of frost, and his lips were also pursed into blades.
Thankfully, he was prepared.
He took out half a bottle of 'Jade Liquid Pill', took out one and swallowed it, and breathed it, but for some reason, this bottle of Extreme Desire Hehuan San, which had saved Xiao He, had no effect!
What's going on? Is it outdated, or is it ......
Lin Shouxi was powerless to think, he relied on his spiritual will to fight against the cold, and when it was extremely cold, he even had a feeling that the qi pill was about to be frozen and cracked.
He held out for a long time.
When he regained consciousness, Mu Shijing sat behind him at some point, pressing his back with both hands.
The girl's eyebrows were also full of frost and snow.
She helped herself again.
"Don't be too moved, if something happens to you, the battle of the old enemy will not be completed, and my Dao heart will not be able to fill the gap."
When Mu Shijing spoke, the ice chips on his lips fell, and the exposed lips were even more crystalline.
They all know that there may be truth to this statement, but the main reason is not so.
Lin Shouxi still wrote about her seriously, but Mu Shijing didn't care, turned around and went back to the hall, saying that he wanted to rest.
She washed her body in warm water, changed into new clothes and lay down on the collapse for a while, for some reason, she tossed and turned, but she couldn't sleep.
Distraught, she took out the manuscript and read it while lying on the bed.
The girl was covered with a quilt, her long dry black hair was scattered, her cold eyes swept over the page, but her expression was constantly changing, her originally cold body was also warmed, and her snow-white cheeks turned into two shades of red. She bent her legs, biting her lip, at first turning the page with two hands, and after a while, I don't know if it was because of the cold, she carefully retracted her right hand into the quilt.
Mu Shijing got up and changed into new clothes.
This time she changed into an over-the-knee black dress, put on ink-dyed ice silk stockings, and her soft boots were replaced by a pair of dark black pointed shoes.
During the night, they returned to the Three Realms Mountain to accompany the Sanhua cat.
Sanhua Cat's pen has been working hard for a day, and he has written more than 100,000 words with the art of prescribing, although the plot has not advanced too much, but its creative spirit is really admirable.
Only the three-flowered cat itself knows that it does not dare to stop, because once it stops, it is very likely to be swallowed by the memory of the king of the blue and turn into a raging bad dragon again......
Lin Shouxi and Mu Shijing didn't notice its abnormality.
They lay together on the keel and looked at the starry sky.
Lin Shouxi put his hand on the sword from time to time.
But on the other side of the Zhan Palace, Xiao Yu never responded.
