"You already knew?" Bu Jiang looked at the hairpin star, "What do you mean?" ”

Under the sky, at the end of the galaxy, the woman did not speak, but was silent.

Gu Baiying pursed her lips and looked at her, and the young man spoke slowly, word by word: "Did you already know?" ”

Hairpin lowered his eyes and sighed softly.

She already knew.

In the two days after the Tanabata Festival in Black Rock City, she learned from Mingjing's mouth that the spiritual veins of all the major sects in the capital had been depleted over the years. That night, Hairpin had a dream.

She dreamed that she was alone in the midst of a mighty flood.

The flood was so vast that it swept everything towards her, and there was no familiar figure to be seen beside her, and the heavens and the earth turned into an ocean, devouring everything.

She suddenly remembered the ending of "Top of the Nine Skies".

In fact, since she arrived at Gufeng Mountain, the longer the time passes, the less hairpin Xing can remember the plot of "Top of the Nine Skies".

At the beginning, it was because she changed the "Heavenly Dao", and everything she experienced in this world was no longer the same as what Hairpin Star remembered. Later, no matter how hard she tried to recall it, the future direction of this story always seemed to be covered with a veil of fog, and it was vague and unclear.

Hairpin always thought that time had passed too long, and she couldn't remember it. Until that night, she woke up from a nightmare, and suddenly, remembered the end.

In the last volume of "The Top of the Nine Heavens", Duzhou ushered in a catastrophe, the heavens and the earth collapsed, and hundreds of millions of living beings here all fell, only Mu Jiexiao and his wives flew to the upper realm and started his new journey.

For Mu Jiexiao, Duzhou was just a short journey in his endless cultivation career in the future. The whole story is just a huge volume, a distant and plain volume, and for Duzhou, for the creatures of Duzhou, this is their ending.

That night, in the drizzle, Hairpin Star came to the Styx alone with a lantern, looked at the black arowana floating from the river waves, and finally realized this terrifying secret.

She couldn't remember the future direction of the story, maybe it wasn't because her memory was wrong, but because there was an invisible giant palm that covered her eyes. It wasn't until the last moment, when there was no turning back, that the long cloth was removed and let her get a glimpse of this cruel ending.

She saw the beginning, but she couldn't guess the ending.

The black arowana floated silently on the swaying river waves, and there seemed to be a faint compassion in the eyes that looked at her.

Has this big black fish that had jumped over the dragon gate ever seen, no, or carried countless monks like her towards that game of chess that was destined to be unwinnable?

She looked at the dragon fish and said softly: "Xiao Shuang said, you are a carp that jumped over the dragon gate from the fairy mountain. Since you have already jumped over the dragon gate, why didn't you turn into a dragon? ”

"Immortal Mountain...... What does it look like? ”

The sound of the water rises and falls, the waves are surging, and the black arowana does not answer.

What is an immortal? What is the Celestial Realm?

The top of the nine heavens, above the sky, what is it?

It's the way of heaven.

Above the nine heavens, it is the way of heaven. It is cold, numb, without emotions and desires, and without joy, anger and sorrow. It is the fairest and the most unjust. Obliterate everything, like an ant.

The ants have struggled all their lives, and in the eyes of the vast heavenly dao, they are humble and ridiculous.

It's easy enough to turn everything upside down.

"Yang Hairpin Xing," Gu Baiying looked at Hairpin Xing, his tone was calm, his eyes seemed to be a huge storm surging, and the young man spoke: "Why don't you tell me?" ”

The hairpin did not speak.

That night, he came out of the rain and sat down beside the hairpin, and she turned around and hugged him and buried her head in his arms.

The boy's arms were soft and warm, and he was busy holding the umbrella on her, afraid that the rain would wet her shoulders, but he did not notice her affectionate expression.

It's not that he hasn't been without timidity and hesitation, and Hairpin also wants to bury his head in the sand and pretend that he doesn't know anything. However, there are some things that can be pretended not to happen.

She said to Gu Baiying: "There is a custom on our side, make a wish to the carp, and your wish will come true." ”

On a rainy night, she secretly made a wish to the black arowana.

"I hope ...... I can change the outcome. She whispered inwardly.

Shaoyang's real voice sounded in the hall: "More than 20 years ago, I divined the hexagram with Qinghua, and the hexagram showed that there was a catastrophe coming in the future in Duzhou, and only those who were destined could save the common people." ”

Gu Baiying was stunned: "People who are destined ......"

At that time, when he and Hairpin were in the secret realm of the painting of Li'er Country, he had heard Qinghua Fairy talk about it. They always thought that the so-called catastrophe was the resurrection of the demon king and the rebellion of the demon clan, but it turned out that the catastrophe of a thousand years ago was coming, and the capital would usher in the ending that was written many years ago.

"Qinghua waited for you in the secret realm," Shaoyang Zhenren looked at the hairpin, "You are the one who is destined." ”

"Joke!" Without waiting for Shaoyang Zhenren to finish speaking, Bu Jiang interrupted his words, the red-robed woman's eyebrows were cold, and her beautiful eyes, which were always smiling, were dyed with a faint killing intent for the first time. She stared at Shaoyang Zhenren, "The so-called destined person is to die for you in vain?" Why? Why do you want my daughter to save people? Why should she sacrifice for the people of the world? ”

"You are cultivating the immortal world, and you keep saying that you care about all the people, can't you find a living bodhisattva who is willing to sacrifice for the people of the world?"

She said viciously: "You know everything, everything is under control, why don't you take the Xiaoyuan bead yourself, make the stone that mends the sky, the merit is thousands of years, and it will be remembered for eternity?" ”

"We are demons, not Buddhas!"

In an instant, the power of the Heavenly Demon flowed from the Demon Queen's body, and the long satin hair seemed to be excited by this monstrous murderous aura, flying wantonly in the wind.

Shaoyang Zhenren looked at her lightly, and a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes.

He said, "It's useless. Xiao Yuanzhu is a stone that mends the sky, and it is also an ancient magic stone, which is destined to be owned only by the demons, and can only be found by the demons. ”

"Heaven arranges it like this, and it has its own profound meaning."

"So the Demon King of the year found Xiao Yuanzhu and wanted to use it to revive the depleted spiritual veins of Black Rock City, but he only tried to refine it, and never thought about anything else."

has nothing to do with anything else, the demon race and the human race are born different. The human race always produces great good people, and the cultivators care about the common people and take the hearts of the people as their hearts. But the demons are different, the demons are selfish, shrewd, and ruthless, and the people who live in the darkest places indulge in pleasure and will never sacrifice themselves for others. Eight Chinese Net

Heavenly Dao never wanted to give Duzhou a glimmer of life, so this is a dead end.

Duzhou is destined to collapse, and the Heavenly Dao seems to have left a stone to replenish the sky, but this stone to replenish the sky can only be owned by the demons. Just like the ghost carving tang back then, any demon clan who gets the Xiaoyuan bead will desperately want to refine it.

Therefore, the demon king failed to refine the Xiaoyuan bead, and finally went mad.

Therefore, the ghost was disgusted and failed to refine the Xiao Yuanzhu, but sacrificed his soul.

In this world, there will be no demons who want to save the common people.

The last stone that mends the heavens will never return to its original position.

This is the trap of the Heavenly Dao.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
