The last hundred breaths.

Lu Ran carried Ke Zhizi on his back, jumped down from the last mountain that was twenty or thirty zhang high, and finally ran out of Wanshan and came to the flat land.

The violent shock made Ke Zhizi wake up, and whispered in Lu Ran's ear: "Brother Ran, where are we?" ”

Lu Ran straightened Ke Zhizi, and his footsteps did not stop: "It's not here yet, but it's coming." ”

Nothing could stop him from moving forward.

However, Kochiko's words made him stop.

"Brother Ran...... I'm in some pain and I can't run anymore. ”

"But if we don't run over there, we'll all die."

"Brother Ran, you let me go, you run by yourself, you ...... To live. ”

"Don't be stupid, I decided to bring you here, then I won't let you die."

Ke Zhizi suddenly smiled dismally: "In the end...... Who's talking stupid? ”

Lu Ran suddenly felt that his heart was like the wound in Ke Zhizi's heart, and it was also broken.

"I'll go slower, you hold on!"

Lu Ran shook his head, cautiously, and took a few more steps.

But Zhizi said again: "Brother Ran, it's okay, you run quickly, it's still too late." ”

Lu Ran understood that Ke Zhizi no longer cared about his life and death, but just wanted Lu Ran to go to the life area as soon as possible.

Lu Ran immediately changed his mind and changed direction.

"Hey, Brother Ran, where are you going?"

"Damn, let's not run away, let's go to the pond of relics, while admiring the flowers, while waiting for ......"

Ke Zhizi asked in fear, "Wait...... Dead? ”

"No, wait and see, how will this [Futu] kill us!"

Lu Ran walked very slowly, in fact, he didn't know what time it was, but because of Ke Zhizi's words, he wanted to understand a truth.

That is, I will not die here.

Won't die in [Futu].

Because someone doesn't allow it.

This person may be Qingwu, maybe Xie Qiao, or maybe some behind-the-scenes boss who he has not yet masked.

What happened in the past made him at least fifty percent confident that he would not die in [Futu], which is why he chose to participate in [Futu] with Huihuan in the first place.

Someone who is destined.

There are always adventures.

Or maybe it's already predestined.

If he doesn't die, then Kochiko can live.

He walked very slowly, and finally came to the pond, and at this time, there were less than thirty breaths before the unitary hour.

He found a boulder suitable for resting, helped Ke Zhizi to lie down, and sat down on the side, while the tip of his tongue pressed against the blood of the green black, and when there was a change, he planned to resist with his strength and resist hard.

The sun had set, and Lu Ran looked at Ke Zhizi blankly, somewhat remembering the past.

At that time, he was in a desperate situation, he was scooped up from the cabin in the dark, and in front of a table of fragrant food, he shed tears of excitement.

But his eyes were covered by a black cloth, and he couldn't see anything in front of him, and he only vaguely saw a light and shadow like a poached egg in his pupils, which should be the sun.

At that moment, he suddenly felt that he was a "person" again, not a pile of rotten meat in the cabin, not the refining consumables of the immortals, and not a "destined person".

That's why he said a big thing that he liked to say when he was a child.

"I'm going to eat a sun."

Lu Ran muttered and said this sentence again.

"Want to eat, Sun?"

But Zhizi didn't know why, but I just went to see the sunset, and I only felt that in the fire-like sunset, the round orange-red sun looked really delicious, very much like an omelette.

A few pear blossoms floated past me.

It's like sprinkling chopped green onions on this "fried egg".

Kochiko blinked and said, "If I go to Bliss, I want to make a pear blossom." ”

Hearing Ke Zhizi speak, Lu Ran came back to his senses from the turbid sea, and immediately answered: "No, you can't." ”

But Zhizi was puzzled: "Hey, why can't you?" ”

Lu Ran also looked up to see the pear blossoms full of trees: "A pear blossom, life is too short, you can make a pear tree and bloom every year." ”

"Ah, I don't want it, I just want to be a pear blossom, the life of a pear blossom is to fall from the branches into the soil, short but beautiful."

Lu Ran was a little surprised, this was the first time since he met Ke Zhizi that he had heard the word "don't" from her mouth.

Lu Ran originally wanted to be glammy and say nonsense like "If you are a tree, then I can pass by your side sooner or later", but after thinking about it, he didn't say it.

Whatever you want, you can do it.

But Zhizi talked about going to Bliss, which made Lu Ran suddenly think of her injury, so he was concerned again: "How is your wound, is it still in severe pain?" ”

"Want to see it?" Ke Zhizi seemed to have suddenly changed his sex, and he reached out and began to unbuckle the buckles on his clothes.

Lu Ran was a little cowardly, waving his hand, "It's not that you have to look at it." ”

But it can be seen that the son has already lifted his profane clothes at this time.

The wound, sure enough, is still getting worse.

Originally, it was just dozens of cracks, but now it has been broken into thousands of pieces, and it may be a slight touch, and it will be truly shattered, and there is no possibility of recovery.

"How can this be?"

Lu Ran looked at this crystal clear jade-like body, how could he have half an evil thought, only incomprehension and distress, only helplessness and helplessness.

Suddenly, Lu Ran had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and said to Ke Zhizi: "Do you remember Xu Fang?" Didn't he keep saying that if you have something, just look for him? Didn't he give you a jade plaque to call him to? ”

Kezhizi didn't react much, just shook his head.

Of course, Lu Ran couldn't let go of this possibility, and put on a straight face, "Bring it quickly!" Don't let me get started on my own. ”

But Zhizi smiled, groped around for a while, and struggled to hand the jade plate to Lu Ran.

Lu Ran still remembered Xu Fang's words, Xu Fang said, you face the south and shout Xu Fang three times, he will definitely come.

But he shouted Xu Fang three times, and Xu Fang did not come.

Lu Ran forced Ke Zhizi to shout three more times, but Xu Fang still didn't come.

Lu Ran frowned: "I'll just say that he's not a good person, this big liar." ”

But Zhizi covered his heart tightly and laughed.

"Huh?" Lu Ran turned his head and looked at Ke Zhizi, with straight silver hair, pale blue eyes, and a face as pale as jade.

"Have you been learning from me to frown?" Ke Zhizi asked with a smile.

"Ahh Lu Ran can be regarded as admitting this.

"Congratulations, you've learned a lot." But Chiko is still laughing.

Lu Ran still looked serious: "Now is not the time to laugh, Ke Zhizi, don't you know that you have such a strange body since you were a child?" It's what you've always said about the 'Jade Clan', what kind of race is it? Tell me quickly, and let me find a way out of it. ”

But Zhizi finally put away her smile and nodded, it was the first time she talked to others about her most secret past.

The two chatted and chatted, having already forgotten the passage of time, and did not realize that at this time, they had entered the unitary time.

But Zhizi's story made Lu Ran completely forget this.

Ke Zhizi said that in fact, he has only vaguely known about his identity as a jade clan.

At that time, I was too young, and although some memories were clear, some memories had long been blurred and forgotten.

I only remember that since I can remember, I have lived in a cage, and there are many people of my own clan in the cage at the same time, and there are some immortals with leather whips in their hands who are responsible for guarding them, and the immortals take them around, sometimes in the snowy country full of silver light, and in the blink of an eye, they come to the flowery south, and there are some dark and terrifying caves, and some are splendid palaces.

She vaguely knew that they were being kept in cages because they were commodities, commodities that were being auctioned off.

And these people who sell them are moving around, that is, to show and auction for those glamorous people, or to avoid being pursued by someone.

They are often auctioned at a secret gathering, and the auction process is lengthy and tedious, but it is actually very cruel, because they are not completely sold by their people to be slaves or subordinates.

They dismantled the jade clan one by one and sold it.

Because every jade clan is born with "meat jade", "meat jade" is a natural cultivation material, people eat it, delay aging, and cultivators eat it, increase cultivation.

The method of eating jade is not to cook "meat jade", but to grind it into a fine powder and put it into a specific wine, called "jade liquid".

Therefore, "meat jade" can be disassembled and sold. Dismantling and selling, on the contrary, is more valuable.

And the reason why Kezhizi has been spared is because she was too young at that time, three or four years old, to sell it for a few dollars.

The immortals who sell them are very patient, and will raise them, repackage them, and finally sell them for a good price.

An excellent "meat seedling" like Kezhizi was even locked in a cage within a cage, and Kezhizi vaguely remembered that there were about a dozen children like her.

Fate had a twist on their way to an auction in the Northland, a rough and snowy road where the horses pulling the cart were suddenly frightened and crashed into a rock.

The carriage pulled a large wooden cage containing Kochiko and his party and fell into the cliff.

The cage was shaken open, but at the same time, many of his fellow clans were killed and shattered on the spot.

When Zhizi was panicking, a boy of the same clan who was not a few years older than him came over, smashed the "cage within a cage" where she was, and then said to her: "You don't move here first, I'll run first after a while, those people will chase me, you see we're all far away, you run in the opposite direction." ”

But Chiko nodded as if she understood, until she saw the boy running fast in the snow, she was very nervous, and she had been expecting him to escape and disappear into the vast snow.

However, a javelin pierced his chest from behind with ruthless and precise precision.

A tall immortal dressed in white and the same color as snow chased after him and picked up the small corpse.

After all, corpses can also be sold for money.

Only then did Chiko remember the advice of this boy of the same race, and ran in the opposite direction desperately.

She was barefoot, and she remembered how painful it hurt to cut her feet like broken knives.

She still remembered that the wind blew on her face, and it was like a knife, and it hurt so much.

Her whole body was shaking, and she made a tinkling sound like ice cubes colliding, and it hurt.

But the immortal found her anyway.

He roared in the snow: "Bunny, stop me!" ”

He drew his javelin, but didn't throw it for some reason, probably for fear of hurting his flawless body.

The young Kochiko finally ran to the top of another cliff, and without thinking much about it, she closed her eyes and jumped down.

Ke Zhizi said this in one breath, a little short of breath, and paused.

Lu Ran realized that it was not for nothing that Kezhizi was so introverted, shy, and timid.

Although he wanted to know what was going on, he wanted Kochiko to rest for a while, so he turned around and looked back.

But I found that in the pond, there was a behemoth, silent, hiding in the water, and listening intoxicated.

It turned out to be the black real dragon in the water.

Lu Ran poked Ke Zhizi, Ke Zhizi looked at it, and said with a smile: "Okay, it seems that he also wants to hear the whole story, okay, then I'll continue, the rest of the story is very short." ”

Lu Ran and Ke Zhizi, until now, they still haven't found out, a long time has passed, but they haven't died yet.

The story in the second half of the story is much simpler.

Ke Zhizi jumped off the cliff and happened to meet an immortal who came here to visit a friend, and the immortal thought that auspicious luck had fallen from the sky and saved her, and although the man in white saw that Ke Zhizi was rescued, he did not dare to speak out, after all, selling jade is illegal, and both religions are strictly prohibited.

This immortal who saved Kezhizi was He Rouyu's friend, named Ziani Erzhu, who later adopted Kezhizi, and later because of his wife's opposition, he had to send Kezhizi to Yangjian Mountain as a sword attendant for Huihuan.

Then, Ke Zhizi followed all the way back to Huan, and the two grew up together, until they went down the mountain this time and came to this Lishan Town.

The story is over.

But Zhizi's eyes were infinitely happy and grateful.

Lu Ran let out a long sigh.

The swarthy dragon whimpered a few times, and if it weren't for him in the water, you could still see a few tears coming out of his eyes.

Lu Ran gritted his teeth and said, "It's really a pity that these human traffickers are dead!" But Zhizi, didn't you think about going over to them for revenge? ”

Ke Zhizi shook his head: "No, I can survive, I feel content, I never thought about revenge." ”

Lu Ran stepped forward and shook Ke Zhizi's hand: "No! Be sure to get revenge! When we get this [floating map], I promise you, with Huihuan Yangya, we must find out the gang of human traffickers back then, and let them pay for their blood debts! ”

But Zhizi's eyes were full of tears.

The real dragon behind him fluttered a few times and splashed some water, which seemed to be echoing.

A few drops of cold pool water slapped on Lu Ran's face, and he suddenly came to his senses: "Kezhizi, it shouldn't be Shen Shi now, right?" ”

But Zhizi went to see the sunset, and it was a lot more westset than before.

"I don't know, but I should ...... It's been a long time, right? ”

Ke Zhizi said.

Lu Ran became excited. "We're not dead?"

"We're not dead."

"We're not dead?"

"We should be, not dead?"

In the face of Lu Ran's repeated rhetorical questions, at this time, even Ke Zhizi could not be sure.

Then, the real dragon behind him suddenly dived into the bottom of the pool, splashing more water at once.

And in the distance, there was a Taoist priest in black clothes with a knife, who was coming viciously and hurriedly.

Some people died, but not completely......
