The battle between the old wine urn and the brothers of the Long Night Monarch has no specific process in the picture.

After seeing only a chaotic light and shadow, the black King of the Long Night had disappeared, and only a thin old man walked alone in the desolate wilderness.

Behind him is the half-destroyed royal capital.

The old man looked confused, but tears flowed down his face, overflowing every wrinkle on his face.

As the sun sets, the remnants of the sun are like blood, and the jackdaws are flying.

I don't know how long I walked in the desolate wilderness, but the old wine urn waded through the river of blood and Nozawa, and came to an official road, where he met a little girl of five or six years old.

The little girl is delicate and full of aura.

It's just that it's a little dirty now.

It was the little princess of the small country that was first destroyed by the King of the Long Night.

The old wine urn with a confused expression, when he saw this little girl, his expression was much more sober: "You are the little princess of Yunguo?" ”

The little girl nodded.

"What's your name?"

"Twilight."

"Twilight? Is this providential? Still is...... Anyway, it's our door that we owe to you. ”

The old wine urn was full of guilt, and his body was gloomy.

The little girl tilted her head slightly, looking at the ragged old man with a wine gourd tied around his waist.

When she saw the old man, only half of his soul remained.

also saw that behind him, there was a period of frozen time when demons were everywhere and lives were devastated.

This period of time is fading away, slowly disappearing into the twilight of the sun.

Among them is her small home country.

"Little Twilight, you come with me, this is what we owe you day and night, and one day, we will repay you."

The little girl was a little ignorant, but she still nodded.

Immediately, only half of the old wine urn with a remnant soul remained, holding the little girl's hand, walking into the distance, and slowly disappearing out of the picture.

In the last light and shadow, a big city under the night is finally hidden in the long river of time.

……

Li Xiangyi couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that this is the origin of the lost years. ”

Jin Doudou whispered: "It turns out that the little girl is really the mother of the gods. So what does she want to do when she sends us into these lost years? ”

"Are you ready to settle the national feud?"

"But what does this have to do with us?"

Li Xiangyun shook his head: "I don't know, there should be an answer soon." ”

Jin Doudou looked sideways at him.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't think it has anything to do with us, but with you."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Do you remember the encounter you had with the old wine urn? He came along with something, and not long after he left, your natal object appeared. ”

Li Xiangyun finally recalled that scene.

So far, he hadn't figured out why his natal object, the Vientiane Renewal Seal, had changed since the old wine urn left.

Could it be that this ancient seal, before the loss of Xiufeng Mountain, had an intersection with the old wine urn?

"The one who took away the little god lord is only half a wisp of remnant soul, the real old wine urn is still left in this lost time, he will definitely appear again, when the time comes, ask him, you will know what is going on."

Jin Doudou nodded, and then thought of another thing: "In this picture and story reflected by Yu Jian, there is no involvement in the extraterritorial Heavenly Demon, what role does it play in this Long Night City?" Can you get through it? ”

Li Xiangyi carefully recalled what Feng Niang said before entering the secret realm, and said: "That extraterritorial heavenly demon must have been killed by the Divine Master Niangniang after she grew up, that is to say, it was sent by the Divine Master Niangniang after the Long Night City was fixed as the lost years. ”

"There must be a reason why she did this, maybe it was really to settle everything that happened in the lost years."

"The corpse and origin of an extraterritorial heavenly demon can do a lot of things."

Jin Doudou shook her head, she really doesn't like to think about those complicated things, this kind of thing, it is better to leave it to the Hanshan heir next to her, and others to deal with.

She only fights when there is a fight, and kills if there is an evil spirit.

But looking at the lifelike statue of the Queen of the Long Night, she had one last question: "Do you think the Queen Mother has finally been resurrected?" ”

Li Xiangyi shook his head: "Definitely not, otherwise Long Night City would not have become what it is today." ”

"And I've never heard that a person whose soul has been extinguished can be resurrected again, so wouldn't countless great supernatural beings be able to live forever?"

"But even if the realm is as superb as the patriarch of the three sects, they all have a certain number, and they dare not say that they can live forever."

Jin Doudou retorted: "But haven't there been all kinds of rumors of resurrection from the dead in the world? ”

Li Xiangyi said with a smile: "There are indeed things that come back from the dead, but those are people who have not really died out, and there are still remnant souls or divine thoughts, so it is possible to rely on various secret methods or strange things to bring him back to life." ”

"To be exact, this is not called resurrection from the dead, but rather the spring of dead wood."

Jin Doudou nodded, understood.

Li Xiangyun thought of the half-demon boy Lin Wei, who carried the black coffin on his back and took his grandfather to the Western Realm, and he didn't know if he had found the Soul Eater Flower or saved his grandfather.

He hoped that this withdrawn and simple half-demon boy could get what he wanted.

When he was young and suffered, his family was ruined, how could he not be another little cloud twilight?

"There are so many saints, sword immortals, Dao monarchs, Buddhas, and martial gods in the world, but there are still so many calamities and calamities, and there are still problems in this world."

Jin Doudou glanced at the scholar in green shirt with some surprise, but he didn't expect him to make such an exclamation.

She couldn't help but say: "When I was in Taicang City, I heard the storyteller of the teahouse say that in addition to self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world, you Confucianism also has a concept, that is, 'establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations', and is committed to creating a Datong society." ”

"Do you have such an ideal?"

Li Xiangyi said casually: "I don't have such a big ideal, but there is a problem in this world after all, the saints of heaven and earth, sword immortals, Taoist monarchs, Buddhas, martial gods, and even major dynasties and immortal sects, have such great magical powers, occupy so much luck, but still can't prevent some catastrophes from appearing, so that the people of the world can live a little better, so what is the significance of these great supernatural powers and dynasties and immortal sects in the world?" ”

"It's better that the world can't, there is no way in the world, maybe the people of Jiuzhou can still be a little happy, at least there will be no disaster that will overthrow the country at every turn."

Jin Doudou said: "I haven't read a book, I don't know as much as you, I only know that as long as there is evil and evil in this world, then you need to have a knife to cut evil in your hand, otherwise you will be even more helpless in the face of those demons and demons, and the worldly people." ”

"It's not wrong to have supernatural powers, but the wrong thing may be that you don't use them well."

Li Xiangyi glanced at the girl in the red cloak with some surprise, and praised: "It's me who is extreme, I didn't expect you to be able to say such a discerning reason and be taught." ”

Jin Doudou pouted and said, "I don't know what to distinguish clearly, but I've been on the street for a long time, so I naturally understand some truth." ”

"If it weren't for the big knife in my hand, or if the big knife in my hand wasn't sharp enough, then I, my brothers and sisters, and my grandmother and aunt, would have died a long time ago."

Li Xiangchang bowed and bowed: "Thank you Miss Jin for teaching me, although I have read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles, after all, I still talk a lot on paper and see flowers quickly, not as good as the girl who has lived in the market for a long time." ”

Jin Doudou stepped aside, not very accustomed to the book at every turn to make a gift.

However, the green-shirted scholar next to her did not disgust her, and she could go along.

"What are we going to do next?"

Li Xianghuan looked around the entire underground palace, then looked at the statue of the Queen of the Long Night in front of him, and said, "The King of the Long Night must still be alive, and this statue should have been erected by him himself." ”

"This palace is 'resurrected', and all kinds of splendor and aura appear, which should be a sign that he is about to return."

"So, let's just wait for him to show up."

"How this big drama should end, it has nothing to do with us, it depends on the god mother and the old wine urn seniors."

Kim agreed.

She had seen the King of the Long Night, and the means of destroying thousands of demons and evil by herself was far from something she could deal with.

"Now, here's it for you." Li Xiangyun returned the jade slip to the girl in the red cloak.

This jade slip was originally taken down by her, not to mention the rest, just the material of the fairy jade in the daytime is priceless, and it is a supreme treasure.

When Jin Doudou saw him hand it over, he didn't twist it, and accepted it directly.

She had a good impression of the Queen of the Long Night, and she was willing to do something for her if she could.

Then the two of them checked the entire dungeon again, and after confirming that there was nothing else of value, they bowed to the queen of the long night, and then left the dungeon along an aisle.

It didn't take long for them to come to another stone gate, the stone door was still carved with mysterious and complex patterns, Li Xiangyi painted a scoop with a gourd, and once again used divine thoughts, one stroke painted the whole pattern, and the stone gate was opened.

Behind the stone gate, it turned out to be a rockery again.

Coming out of the rockery, you come to the ground, which is also a garden.

However, this garden is very peaceful, the flowers are in full bloom, the warblers are flying and the butterflies are dancing, not like the garden of the big city at night, but more like the courtyard of a certain gentleman in the world.

"Someone!" Jin Doudou suddenly reminded.

Li Xiangyi also found the people in the garden, and saw that under a large crape myrtle flower, there was a young white-clothed monk standing out of the dust.

The white-clothed monk with a dusty temperament was looking down at a few ants playing under the flowers, with a faint smile on his face, as if he was watching something very interesting.

Hearing the movement of the two, he bowed his head sideways and gave a one-handed salute, and said kindly: "Amitabha, the little monk Sanwu, I have seen two donors. ”

This is the contemporary Buddha of Beizhigezhou, the third monk of the Three Enlightenments in Beizhou.

Jin Doudou has already met him for the second time after entering the secret realm, and he was obviously the three enlightenments of the ten realms, but for some reason he appeared in the lower city, and he once resisted a palace leader of the ten realms.

So she returned the salute with a fist.

Li Xiangyun arched his hand and said, "Master Sanwu, what are you looking at?" ”

Sanwu had a handsome face and a gentle attitude, and said: "In front of Master Li Shi, the little monk never dares to call him a master, you still call the little monk Sanwu." ”

"I'm watching ants learn words, the ants in this Long Night City seem to be much smarter than the ants outside, and they are quite Buddha-like."

"Oh, is it? Then I'll take a look at it too. Li Xiangyi stepped forward.

Jin Doudou followed.

The two of them came to the crape myrtle flower to take a look, but saw that the ants were spinning in circles on the ground, or stopping, or carrying things, but they really didn't see that they were learning words.

Jin Doudou couldn't hold back his curiosity and wanted to ask, but after a while, a large group of ants came under the flowers, and then these ants quickly formed a "Buddha" character.

"Two donors, please see, these ants are indeed related to my Buddhism." Sango smiled.

Jin Doudou pouted, if she wanted, she could still let these ants have a relationship with a random piece of horse manure in Taicang City.

Li Xiangyi's eyes were slightly condensed, because he saw that there was no trace of supernatural power left on these ants that made up the word "Buddha", and there was still a faint trace of pure Buddha nature on their bodies.

"Master Sanwu, how did you do it?"

Sanwu saw that he still called himself a master, but he didn't make trouble, let him go, and said: "I recited the Buddhist scriptures for them for two hours, but I didn't expect them to really have an epiphany, do you think they are very understanding?" ”

Li Xiangyun said with a smile: "The master can actually recite the Buddhist scriptures for two hours to a group of ants, and admire them." It seems that they are indeed related to your Buddhism. ”

"Does the master want to turn them into Buddha Vajra Protectors?"

Sanwu shook his head and smiled: "No, all the creatures in the world, all who have wisdom, all have Buddha nature, and the little monk just happened to meet them and passed on some scriptures." ”

"As for how far they can grow in the future, whether they can enter the Buddha Gate or not, it all depends on their own karma!"

Li Xiangyi shook the folding fan lightly and said with a smile: "Master Sanwu is worthy of being my contemporary Buddha in Beizhou, and no one can compare with this kind of mind." ”

"Master, since you have been in this palace of the Night King for a long time, you should know what happened in this great city, right? Perhaps, it is the need for a master to do something extraordinary. ”

Sanwu clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, since the little monk entered this palace, he has indeed seen many calamities happen. ”

"If necessary, the little monk is duty-bound."

"It's just that the god lord Niangniang has already planned, maybe she doesn't need the little monk to show her eyes, but it is Lord Li Shi, who has a lot of connections with the people in this city."

The Sanwu monk has a [Great Eye] supernatural ability that can see many other things that cannot be seen by others.

As soon as they met, he saw some causal lines on Li Xiangyi's body, which were entangled with this big city at night.

Li Xiangyi asked: "Dare to ask the Buddha, what is the origin?" ”

Sanwu shook his head: "Amitabha, the Buddha said that it cannot be said." ”

When Jin Doudou heard this, he wanted to pout again, since you can't say it, then what are you talking about.

Li Xiangyun was still grateful: "Thank you Master Sanwu." ”

Then he looked up, over the crape myrtle tree, and into the depths of the palace.

At this moment, on the roof of the highest hall of the palace, a tall figure in a black robe appeared.
