Chapter 001: In the cage
A mysterious snow blurred the world in an instant, snowflakes fell, time stood still, but Feng Linuo's mind was red.
The bright red figure in the mist stood in a pool of blood with a long sword in his hand, dazzling and scorching, and the man imprisoned in the golden cage on the side looked at the red, let out a hysterical roar, and struggled in the cage......
The figure holding the sword turned around when she heard this, her bloodstained eyes staring straight at Feng Linuo, her heart tightened, and her face was a little panicked and frightened.
The man who watched her looked like a bloodthirsty demon from hell, his face purple, a pair of black goat horns on his forehead pierced his skin, and bright red blood flowed into his eyes, and then down the corners of his mouth, staining his fangs red.
His feet were covered with corpses, his red clothes were covered with black blood, and his sword-holding hand was clinging to obsidian-like scales, dripping with blood, he slowly approached the golden cage, trembling and raised his sword against the chest of the man in the cage, the blood on the man's chest made his dull pupils change slightly, although he had used all his strength to hold the bamboo sword in his hand with both hands to stop himself, but he could not get rid of the power of another soul in his body.
The sword plunged into the cage man's chest, and he finally stopped.
Rino looked at the pale and blurred face of the man locked in the golden cage along the dripping blood, and just as he met his eyes, an inexplicable feeling of dizziness struck, and Rino fell to the ground.
In that world, three thousand years of time passed in a flash, and the man trapped in the cage suffered day and night at the bottom of the dark cliff, which was located at the junction of the Demon Clan's Wuwei City and the Xuantu Clan's Return City, gathering countless emotions and six desires in this world.
He tried to break out of the cage of the locked bird again and again, but he was injured again and again by the rune spell engraved on the gold wire, and he was also entangled in the turbid qi of those evil thoughts such as greed, hatred and ignorance in the world, and every time he failed, he was greeted by merciless ridicule in the dark.
At the bottom of the chaotic mountain cliff, a cloud of black qi that was contained in the seven stone pillars once again whispered to the birdcage on the altar not far away, "After practicing for tens of thousands of years, I have passed the cultivation of the immeasurable realm, and three thousand years have passed, and I am still helpless against the cage that keeps birds......
The man sitting in the cage with his eyes closed gritted his teeth and scolded, "You...... Shut up! ”
He is indeed unwilling, for three thousand years, except for being able to barely resist the evil thoughts around him, there is no way to do anything about this cage, and the wound in his heart can always involve him.
Because of his anger, the stone pillar loosened slightly, and the black qi was in a good mood, and continued, "Who are you waiting for? Your most trusted ...... Senior brother? I don't know who put you in this cage with his own hands, gave you a sword with his own hands, and then threw you into this hellish valley...... In spite of...... Regardless of ......"
"Senior brother...... He...... will come and let me out, will come, I will definitely ......" The person in the cage opened his eyes as calmly as possible, looking at the black gas in the chaos, he never listened to those words, and always believed in his senior brother, but time made him hesitate a little.
"Three thousand years, countless days and nights, you have been so self-deceiving, do you still believe in him, you want to come...... It's long overdue! ”
The black qi knew the person in front of him, and also knew the person who could shake his mood, and kept telling the story between them.
"I remember...... Once, you two brothers were almost inseparable, and that child always protected you, and I was really afraid that you would make a mistake, but ...... What now? You are in the midst of chaos, and your body and mind are eroded by this turbid evil thoughts, even if you don't go mad, it's better to live than to die...... How could he not know that it was so painful...... The wound in my heart is hard to heal......"
"Shut up!" The man in the cage clenched his fists and scolded again, he didn't want to hear any words slandering his senior brother, and tried his best to resist the demonic energy that was about to invade his heart.
And his anger caused a thunderbolt, and the dazzling blue light fell from the sky, splitting the chaos and falling on the seven stone pillars, splitting the black qi and scattering, gathering and scattering, and finally making a large circle smaller.
Even so, the black gas still did not give up the struggle, and still made noise, "He has long given up on you, banished you in the gap of this border, never seen the light of day, and left you alone ......"
Before the words of the black qi fell, the person in the cage hesitated for a moment, and the demonic qi finally entered his heart, his eyes were instantly dyed with blood, and he looked extremely bright at the bottom of this dim cliff, and the people in the cage began to mumble, "Yes, he has never made me wait so long...... He never left me alone ......"
He knew he was afraid of being alone, he knew he was the only one!
In the midst of the chaos, he still gave birth to the demons in his heart, and he could no longer provide the purest energy for the seven stone pillars.
In an instant, the black qi felt the restraints around him begin to loosen, and in one breath, it broke the stone pillar, rushed out of his cage, flew around excitedly in the dark, and by the way, knocked into the bird cage that he had been watching for three thousand years, and then disappeared without a trace.
A month later, on a small island in the south of the continent, a baby girl croaked to the ground, and at the same time, the long-unconscious Feng Lino also regained consciousness, she maintained her original appearance and clothing, standing on a water mirror that could not be seen, there was a peaceful silence, nothing but herself, and no sound could be heard.
She felt her body change with each breath she had, becoming lighter and lighter until she couldn't move to the water.
She walked and shouted in this place for a long time, there was no change around her, and there was no response, she knew that she had probably crossed over to an unknown place.
She was tired and lay on the water mirror, just closed her eyes, there was a light reflected in the corner of her eyes, and when she opened her eyes, she could already see the outside world through the water mirror at the bottom of her feet, and hear the sound of the outside world, but the range of what she saw was limited, like the picture seen by others, she was using someone else's perspective, the perspective of a newborn baby.
She realized that she seemed to be able to control the baby, but she was suffering from the limitations of the subject, and even if she wanted to speak, she would be transformed into babbling baby's words, and finally give up, and finally adapt.
Hearing the conversations of the people around her, Rino finally knew that the place where she was called Wind Moon Island, a small island hidden in the south, located under the Moon Palace in the Heavenly Domain, and the child she boarded with was named Wind Dyed Moon.
From the age of five to ten, Rino thought that she could control Sometsuki to get out of the village, but every time she wanted to control her, she was suppressed by a force and then sucked away the strength of her whole body, and finally had to choose to give up.
Sometsuki already has a consciousness of her own, even stronger than Rino, and Sometsuki has been suppressing her unintentionally.
When she was thirteen years old, she was aware of Rino's existence, but she only had a faint feeling that there was some kind of spiritual thing in her body that did not belong to her, and one night she let herself fall into a dream, and saw a woman wrapped in light in a certain space, she got closer a little, but she was never able to pass through the restrictions of the wall of light, and could not enter that pure place.
"Who are you?" Ran Yue leaned against the wall of light, looked at Rino who had just woken up, and asked her eagerly.
Rino, who was resting on the water mirror, just opened his eyes, stretched his waist and heard a familiar voice echoing in his ears, stood up and looked around, but found nothing, and when he looked at the water mirror under his feet in the blink of an eye, it had become pitch black, and the figure of the wind dyed moon gradually appeared in the water mirror, she was looking at herself not far away, and Rino couldn't help but look sideways in that direction.
Dye Yue met Rino's eyes through the wall of light, and her heart was inexplicably flustered, so she asked, "Who are you and why are you here!" ”
Rino sat down cross-legged and replied helplessly, "My name is Feng Rino, why are you here...... I don't know ......" and then subconsciously said something that even confused me, "I don't remember ......"
As if she should remember something!
"You should be me, and I shouldn't be me......" Ran Yue sat down against the wall of light, muttering unconsciously with her back to Rino, she couldn't bear to look at Rino inexplicably, although she didn't know why she had such thoughts, but there was always a feeling that this matter was related to herself, but she couldn't think of anything, and then gradually disappeared into the darkness.
As Dying Moon disappeared, Rino clearly heard another person's voice asking, "Where are you?" ”
The young man's voice was deep in her memory, and the sudden appearance made Rino instantly refreshed, jumping up and looking around, and the messy footsteps made the water surface that had not been turbulent for a long time also rippled.
"Who's talking!" Rino replied, and there was no one around.
The man seemed to hear the response and asked, "Tell me where you are!" ”
"Fengyue Island, I'm on Fengyue Island, who are you?" Rino replied nervously and eagerly, this person's voice was a little cold, but it could make her heart stagnate inexplicably, like someone she had been looking for for a long time, and finally heard his news, she clutched her chest and adjusted her breathing, still looking around for the source of the sound.
"Where?"
"South ......" Rino recalled for a moment and added, "Xiheng in the north, Xili in the east." ”
"What's the name?"
Rino paused, only to realize that he was asking his own name and replied, "Feng Rino...... Who are you? ”
Rino answered all the man's questions honestly, but the man didn't care about her questions and didn't get a reply, but in her consciousness there was a voice calling 'Amer......'
She shouted this name and had a terrible headache in the next second, and her brain seemed to be pierced with countless fine needles, so that she couldn't help but hold her head and scream, and when she came to her senses, the name disappeared.
It wasn't long before a huge maple tree rose from the ground in the pure land of nothingness, and Rino looked around the maple tree for a long time and jumped up again, except that it looked exactly like the ancient maple tree next to the moon temple on this small island.
"How long am I going to be stuck here......" she shouted from the tree, recalling the voice over and over again, she had heard it but could not remember who it was.
