Chapter 19: No One Survives
One
Although it was only a moment, it felt as if tens of thousands of years had passed. Two men were standing and looking down at a dead man...... Slowly, very slowly, Liang Feiyan and Monk Yuanzhen raised their heads and stared into each other's eyes......

Monk Yuanzhen smiled. He said, "I see. Is it, Liang Feiyan? ”
"There isn't a single person on the island—not even a single person—except for the two of us......" Her voice was as low as a whisper—just audible.
Monk Yuanzhen said: "It's not bad at all. So we're pretty clear about where we're in now, aren't we? ”
Liang Feiyan said: "What is in the wooden box that Shen He went to get...... Actually let him ignore the danger? Monk Yuanzhen shrugged. I don't know what's in the specific wooden box, after all, I didn't care about the wooden box when I saw it, but I think there must be a treasure in it, the treasure that Shen He wants. Their eyes met again. Liang Feiyan thought: Why haven't I ever taken a good look at his face before, a wolf, not fake at all - a wolf's face...... Those horrible teeth...... Monk Yuanzhen—whose voice was like a howl, and it sounded creepy—said, "It's finally time to end." You should understand that now that everything has been revealed, this is the end......"
Liang Feiyan said calmly: "I understand......" She stared at the sea, Mr. Cao was still looking at the sea yesterday - maybe the day before yesterday - he also said: "This is the end......" He said this in a submissive, even welcoming tone. But for Liang Feiyan, these words and this kind of thought aroused a deep disgust in her heart. No, this won't be the end! She looked at the dead man and said, "This poor Nangong Jin Divine Doctor, he must not be able to stand it here, and wanted to wander away at night, but he drowned here for some reason...... "Monk Yuanzhen said sarcastically: "What do you mean by this?" Is it your pitiful compassion as a woman? ”
Liang Feiyan said: "Why not? Doesn't the master have compassion? ”
Monk Yuanzhen said: "I don't have the slightest pity for you. You can't imagine it! Liang Feiyan looked down at the corpse again and said, "We have to fish him up and get him into the house." ”
"Let him lie in his room like the rest of the dead people, too, yes? Clean up. In my opinion, it's good for him to stay here. Liang Feiyan said: "Anyway, let's get him to a place where the sea can't wash away." Monk Yuanzhen smiled and said, "Whatever you want." He bent down and began to pull the body ashore. Liang Feiyan was next to him to help him. She pulled and pulled with all her strength. Monk Yuanzhen panted and said: "I used to hear people say that death is sinking, but sure enough, this person is heavy enough when he is dead, and it is not easy to pull him ashore." In the end, they managed to drag the body to a place where the tide could not wash away. Monk Yuanzhen straightened up and looked at Liang Feiyan and said, "Are you satisfied now?" ”
Liang Feiyan said: "Very satisfied. Her tone alerted him for a moment. He turned around and put his hand in his arms, and he understood at once that his arms were empty. At this time, she was already standing two meters away from him, facing him, holding a hidden weapon in her hand.
Monk Yuanzhen said: "It turns out that this is the reason why you should also show grace to the dead body, in order to take away my secret weapon." She nodded, and then firmly and unwaveringly raised the hidden weapon to aim at Yuan Zhen. The Grim Reaper was now approaching Monk Yuanzhen, and he knew that he had never been so close to the Grim Reaper. Still, he wasn't intimidated. He coldly ordered: "Give me back the hidden weapon quickly!" Liang Feiyan smiled. Monk Yuanzhen said, "Do you hear that? Give me the secret weapon! His agile brain began to work rapidly. What to do—by what means—to convince her—to stabilize her, to reassure her—or to strike a quick blow—Monk Yuanzhen has always used risky means in his past life. He's doing it again. He said in a very gentle-sounding tone, as if the elders were reasoning with the juniors: "Listen, Miss Liang, listen carefully to me!" In fact...... "It was at this moment that he leapt to his feet, as agile as a leopard, or any other kind of feline...... Liang Feiyan quickly and mechanically pulled the trigger of the hidden weapon...... Monk Yuanzhen's jumping body stopped in mid-air for an instant, and then fell heavily to the ground. Liang Feiyan stepped forward vigilantly, and the hidden weapon in his hand was ready to fire a second blow at any time. But there was no need for this at all, Monk Yuanzhen was shot through the heart by the silver nail shot by the hidden weapon, and he was already lifeless......

Liang Feiyan breathed a long sigh of relief. It was all over and she had never felt this relaxed. There is no more threat – no more nervous tension that almost bursts...... Now she was alone on the island, an island of temporary seclusion, and nine corpses...... She still hasn't figured out what happened in the past few days, but luckily she survived in the end...... Sitting here - I just feel extremely happy, extremely peaceful, and free from fear.

It wasn't until the sun was about to sink into the sea that Liang Feiyan thought of getting up and moving. Ever since what had happened, she had been sitting there limp and not wanting to move. She couldn't hold anything else in her heart except happiness and security. Now she suddenly felt hunger and drowsiness rush together, especially the surging sleepiness, and she wanted to throw herself into bed and get a good night's sleep......
Maybe someone will come to her rescue tomorrow...... But it didn't matter, she didn't care if she stayed here. After all, she is the only one left on this island now, and she doesn't have to worry about anything, she doesn't have to care about anything...... Wow! Happiness, blissful tranquility...... She stood up and glanced at the house, and there was nothing to fear any more! No danger awaited her. In her eyes, the building had become a beautiful courtyard again, no different from any other building. But not so long ago, she couldn't stop shivering just by looking at this house. Fear – What a quirky thing fear is...... But it's gone now. She was victorious, not only escaping from the ghost gate with her shrewdness and decisiveness, but also putting those who endangered her own life to death.
She walked towards the house. The sun was still sinking, and in the endless sky, the orange sunset was burning, and a few seagulls were chasing and playing in the distance...... Everything was so beautiful and so peaceful...... Liang Feiyan thought to herself: Maybe all this is just a dream...... She felt very tired—deep tiredness from the bottom of her heart. Her limbs ached, and her eyelids drooped. She doesn't have to worry anymore...... Sleep, sleep, she just wants to sleep...... Since she was the only one left on the island, she could really sit back and relax. Only a small devil porcelain man is left. A smile crossed her face. She walked through the front door, and there was an indescribable silence in the room. Liang Feiyan thought: According to common sense, a person is not willing to sleep in a house where there is a dead man parked in every room.
Should I go to the kitchen for something first? She hesitated for a moment, then decided not to eat it. She's so tired...... She stood at the door of the transept, and there were three small porcelain figures in the table. Liang Feiyan smiled, and she said, "It seems that you guys are outdated. She grabbed two and threw them out of the window, hearing the sound of the little porcelain man breaking on the stone steps. She grabbed the third one and held it in her hand, and said, "You can come with me, we win, little one, we win!" The hall became dark in the twilight, and Liang Feiyan pinched the little porcelain figure and began to go upstairs. Because she didn't have any strength on her legs, she walked very slowly. "There is only one of the ten demons left, and now there is only one, and he is alone." What's the end? Oh yes! It lives happily in the world, gets married and has children to enjoy the prosperity of the world, and the ending could not be better.
Tie the knot...... How strange, how could she think that Xiao Ping was in her room again when she mentioned this...... This feeling is very strong. Yes, Xiao Ping was waiting for her upstairs. Liang Feiyan said to herself, "Don't be stupid, you're too tired, that's why you have this hallucination...... she slowly climbed up the stairs...... At the end of the stairs, an object fell from her hand onto the soft carpet with barely any sound. She didn't notice that the weapon slipped out of her hand, and she realized that she was holding a small porcelain figure tightly. What silence in the house! But...... It still doesn't feel like an empty house...... Xiao Ping was waiting for her upstairs...... "There is only one demon left, and he is alone. "What's the last sentence? Is it about marriage? …… Or something else? She walked to the door of her room, where Xiao Ping was waiting for her...... She was sure of that. She opened the door...... I gasped...... What is that hook hanging from the ceiling? A rope noose with a loophole? There was also a chair underneath, a chair that could be kicked off...... This is what Xiao Ping asked her to do...... And of course the last line of that poem. "A demon heart demon continues to hang from the beam, so that there is no demon in the world......" The little porcelain figure fell from her hand, it rolled a few times, and smashed against the wall. Liang Feiyan walked forward mechanically. This is the end - this is where the cold, wet hand (Xiao Yun's hand, of course) once touched her throat...... "You can go and play on the edge of the lotus pond, Xiao Yun...... "This is murder—what a simple murder." But you'll never forget...... She climbed into her chair, her eyes staring blankly ahead like a sleepwalker...... She put the noose around her neck. Xiao Ping watched her there, watching her embark on the path she was destined to take. She felt as if she was getting closer and closer to Xiao Ping, but soon she was no longer breathing......
