Chapter 124: The Sand of the Underworld

With the advent of that curtain of light, the Qiē in the Rainy Valley instantly returned to its original appearance, and the fragments that stayed in mid-air continued to flutter along the trajectory before it stood still, the branches still shook violently, and the torrential rain was still pouring down.

Yeyun has never encountered such a bleak and bizarre thing since she was a child, and what she encountered today has subverted her previous thinking concepts. First of all, an inexplicable person appeared in this forbidden place, the space was still, the brilliant blue light, the strange man called the stygian sand, the vague person like a god, this qiē qiē, it only happened in an instant.

When Yeyun was still immersed in the memory of what had just happened, as soon as she let go of her hand holding the root of the tree, the whole person was instantly blown up by the strong wind, spun and flew into the air, and the debris in the sky hit all parts of her body, hands, feet, Even her face was not spared, she screamed in pain, and just wanted to open her mouth to cry out in pain, the violent wind poured in, and the cry suddenly turned into a whimper, but her whimpering sound seemed to be deaf in this stormy rain, and the body of the night cloud was like a lonely boat in the vast sea at this moment, floating and sinking with the waves, and it could fall at any time.

After all, mortals have a seven-foot body, not to mention that Yeyun is just an ordinary mortal woman.

The night clouds followed the wind, and they could not distinguish the direction for a long time, and the lightning and thunder around them from time to time were deafening, as if the sky was falling apart. The wind tore at her body so violently that it would take a few more moments for her entire body to be torn apart.

She had lost consciousness in pain all over her body, but when a hard object the size of a fist hit her eye, she still had her head huddled in pain. She didn't know where she was blown by the wind at the moment, when she would fall to the ground, and she didn't know if she would still be alive after falling from the sky.

Just as she was thinking wildly, a warm current suddenly spread throughout her body. Yeyun's numb body suddenly seemed to be bathed in the morning light, quiet and comfortable. Even the eye that was hit just now doesn't feel pain.

She opened her eyes slightly. I saw that I was wrapped in a soft blue light, and the fragments flying all over the sky were bounced away as soon as they touched the blue light.

"It's that person. It must be that person", Yeyun saw the blue light, and immediately thought of the person who was as majestic as a god just now.

She subconsciously looked down, and suddenly a feeling of dizziness hit her. What catches your eye is like a beautiful landscape painting, like mud pills, like mud pills, winding rivers, and in one corner of the picture there are some familiar houses that are almost unclear, and directly below, there is a dark circle like ink, and more places are obscured by flying debris and white clouds. Can't see clearly.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Yeyun subconsciously said.

However, as if something had stinged her eyes, she looked forward with her eyes closed, only to see a round of blood-red sun shining softly on Yeyun's body in front of her.

"Isn't that the sunset?"

Yeyun only remembered at this moment that she was carried into the sky by a whirlwind, and that blue light must be related to the person who was in the Rainy Valley just now, she looked around, but where was the shadow of the mysterious person?

"Did you save me?" she cried out.

"Yes"

The magnetic voice of the indistinct gender sounded indifferently in his ears.

Yeyun was startled and looked back. Who is the mystery man if not?

I saw that the man was still wearing an inky wide robe, and a layer of mist in front of his face was blurred. Floating beside Yeyun, "Give you two choices, be my attendant for twenty years." Or, fall from here".

"W-Where is this?" Yeyun only felt inexplicable in his ears, not knowing what the mysterious person was saying. "What squire, what choice, did you save me?"

"See that pitch-black circle?", the mysterious man muttered to Yeyun. Pointing to the black circle on the ground.

Yeyun looked down, and there was indeed a circle as black as ink.

Just listen to the mysterious man continue. "That's the Valley of the Rain."

"Rainy Valley!" Night Cloud stared in disbelief with wide eyes. "Then I'm not in the high heavens?"

"Not bad," the mysterious man replied softly.

"Ah! No wonder it's so familiar, then those houses in the west are Qixi Town", Yeyun suddenly realized, but when he thought of the mysterious man's words just now, he couldn't help but tremble all over, "What did you just say?

"Yes, are you ready to choose?"

Yeyun suddenly felt dizzy, if she fell from here, how could she still live? But when she thought of being that person's attendant for twenty years, she was extremely unwilling. At this point, she actually thought of a trick that she had tried and tested many times since she was a child - cheating.

"Oh, you are an omnipotent man of God, you know that a little girl is embarrassed, you see, I have nothing, and I am not as beautiful as the sister just now, and I can't even do laundry and quilting, sweep the floor and cook, and I can't even take care of myself, and I often have to take care of my parents' daily life, even if I am an attendant, it will only add trouble to you, and besides, I have a lot of bad habits, how can you be affected by then?"

Yeyun was going to continue to babble about her many wrongs, but at this moment she hated to bring out all the habits she had and didn't have.

But then she couldn't say any more, and her voice suddenly turned into a heart-rending exclamation, as her body fell to the ground in an instant.

"Don't, okay, okay, I'll answer you, stop, I promise to be your attendant, save me." In the moment of life and death, she lost all reason and shouted desperately.

"Very good". The magnetic voice sounded in the ears of the night clouds again.

Yeyun's falling body instantly stopped with the mysterious man's words, however, she had just returned from the ghost gate, and at this moment she cried loudly like a child, ignoring that a stranger was still beside her.

"Sign this contract, then," the mysterious man's voice was cold and hollow.

In the flickering light, a dark and simple scroll of paper opened from the palm of the mysterious man's hand, and a few lines of text on it were obscure and scribbled, and below the text panel was a demon pattern with teeth and claws.

Yeyun looked at the quaint rolling paper, and an indescribable sadness rose in the depths of her heart, "Twenty years?" she muttered.

How long is 20 years? It's like waking up from a dream in an instant. Or is she living in agony like years? Is that a long reincarnation since she was born! What will happen to her elderly parents in 20 years? Will they still exist in the world?

And she dreams of picking the purple condensation flower and becoming the most beautiful person in the Ziwu country. But the years are merciless. Twenty years later, she should have been unrecognizable and wrinkled, right?

The mysterious man didn't pay any attention to how sad and compassionate such a fragile and petite heart was at the moment.

Or the mysterious man who lives above all living beings doesn't care about what Yeyun thinks in his heart, he just said lightly. "Look at the pattern below."

Nightcloud's eyes were blank, and the hot liquid obscured her vision, making it impossible for her to see the patterns on the rolling paper.

But the voice of the mysterious man pulls her back to reality. "When the Daredevil's head turns, the pact is made."

Yeyun closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, the tears in her eyes had long since disappeared, and she stared intently at the image of the Daredevil with teeth and claws on the rolling paper.

As soon as Yeyun's eyes came into contact with the pattern, the Daredevil's pupils on the rolling paper were gradually shrinking, accompanied by two faint points of light. The Daredevil seemed to come to life, flying wildly on the scroll, it seemed to be terrified to the extreme, and the miserable howl was incessant, and the six tentacles danced up and down, pulling out of thin air, but in the end it couldn't catch anything, when the Daredevil spun around on the scroll and returned to the bottom of the page. It stopped motionless, gradually changing into its previous shape, but its position changed, and it was headed upwards. At the moment, it is facing downward.

"The contract is complete", the mysterious man casually waved his hand to put away the contract, "from this moment on." My intention is your mission, for this reason. I grant you twenty years of youth and strength beyond mortals".

The mysterious man stretched out his left hand and formed five fingers into claws. Pressed against Yeyun's forehead, a blue light was injected into Yeyun's body from the palm of his hand.

Yeyun trembled for a while, and only felt a warm current entering the nerve points in his body, which was indescribably comfortable and enjoyable.

"Let me go". The mysterious man withdrew his hand and said indifferently.

"Where are you going?" Yeyun was at his mercy, dazed, completely unsure of where to go. At this point, the only thing she cares about is her family, right?

"Go to a higher place than here".

Later, she discovered that the "higher place" that the Holy Master said was the Meteorite Peak that towered into the sky.

......

Night Cloud's gaze retracted from the prophet's broad figure, and said gloomily, "Is the Stygian Sand the former attendant?"

"Yes, it's a pity that she would rather be a mortal and try to change her life against the sky, and you have witnessed the end, do you want to follow in her footsteps?"

Hearing this, Yeyun said softly, "Then why did the Holy Master order me to bring Leng Yi back here a few days ago, isn't this disrupting his trajectory?"

The prophet was stunned, and suddenly fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long time, the prophet sighed and said: "I think that I have long been out of the gods, and I have controlled the fortune of the common people in one hand, and the vicissitudes of life have been all floating clouds in me, but this time, you have not been able to bring back Leng Yi, and only then did I realize that there are still traces in this world that I have not been able to explore, and even those closest to me have escaped from the scope I predicted."

Yeyun was silent, however, there seemed to be something firm in her pupils, a perseverance and a dedication to forgetting death. Like the eyes of the sand in the Rainy Valley twenty years ago.

"Cause and effect reflect each other, fate will eventually be an insurmountable chasm", the prophet looked at the starry sky beyond the sky, where from time to time a star flickered and disappeared, but in a matter of moments, a dim star would take its place. "Perhaps, even I can't escape that trajectory." The Prophet was dazed.

In the twenty years since Yeyun entered the Meteorite Peak, she has never heard the prophet say so many words, the Meteorite Peak has always been the source and pillar of her spiritual strength, and the prophet is a god in her heart, an irresistible being.

Now, the prophet is at a loss?

"How long has it been since the gods have not been shaken, perhaps, a complete baptism is needed." The Prophet muttered.

The bustling crowds, the chaotic market, the shouting and shouting are endless, and as the largest city within a radius of 100 miles, Sanssouci City is even more so.

The strict order has been tense to the extreme in the past month, and the items of the customs clearance personnel must be thoroughly investigated, and the original residents of the city are forbidden to go out, and there will always be a team of iron hooves crisscrossing every street and alley every hour. Outside the city, the imperial army rushed here in the dust, and the thick dust raised covered the sky and the sun.

So far. The unrest among the residents of the city had reached its peak, even though the city lord's mansion had already ordered that private discussions about the Heavenly Desolate City should not be discussed in the city. But all kinds of channels are pervasive, and there are always wisps of water entering the city. A month ago, the news of the Heavenly Desolate City's disappearance from the gods swept like a whirlwind. At this moment, the ban of the City Lord's Mansion has become a cushion for the residents of the city to flee.

The barbarian army now lives in the Burial Mountains, ten miles north of Sanssouci City, far away from the Hades army to the south, and Sanssouci City is sandwiched between the two armies.

Ten miles north of Sanssouci City, simple but wide wooden houses stand all over the mountains, and the edge is a series of towering Liao Wangtowers, which can not be seen at a glance. In the center is a low-lying valley, and among the countless simple wooden houses, an extremely large and luxurious wooden house stands out.

Inside a large wooden house. All kinds of rare ornaments are dazzling, the ground is covered with soft fur, and a statue of a sheep's head and human body in the middle is lifelike, with two sharp front paws, curved and strong hind limbs, and a pair of bone wings behind him are ready to fly. Behind the statue is a large council chamber. The light in the council hall was dim, and a huge lighting bead flickered on the roof from time to time, flickering and disappearing. There were bursts of light, but only two silent figures were reflected.

"These lowly people of Yinlu even tried to resist with those fragile human bodies, which is really self-defeating. On the luxurious seat, a petite figure spoke.

"It must be those resentful spirits of the underworld who want to use Sanssouci City to contain it." In front of the seat. A black robe stood underneath it, its entire body hidden in the darkness, even its head hidden in the pitch-black hat. Only a few strands of white hair fell out of it, and a pair of pupils shone faintly. He replied in a slightly respectful, but hoarse voice.

"Those demons are also naïve. It's ridiculous to think that if you move to the weak Yinlu Country, you can rely on these delicate soldiers wearing a few pieces of broken copper and iron to stop the footsteps of my God Clan." The petite figure stood up. Stroll towards the statue in front of you.

"Have you forgotten the Great Sacrifice? In the battle of the Heavenly Desolation, my god clan lost troops, and the casualties were as high as 20%, but the number of casualties on the demon side was only 1,000 spirits." The black robe followed closely behind, reminding carefully.

The petite figure stopped, but did not look back, "The ones killed by our army in the battle of the Heavenly Desolation are just some bait, and they are not harmful."

The black robe took a slight step forward and said, "According to the barking report, there seems to be a difficult opponent among the demons?"

"Oh, is Bark back, why don't you come to see me directly?" said the High Priest in surprise.

He wasn't sure if it was Chu You, so he just came back and said a word and hurried away.

Speaking of the underworld phantom Chu You, the black robe couldn't help but gloom, recalling that this person has become a nightmare for the barbarian soldiers since he appeared in the sky, and this person's skills are far superior to other underworld phantoms, and he once infiltrated the barbarian base camp alone in a fit of anger and successfully assassinated seven priests, and then escaped safely.

"The Demon has been fighting against our people for generations, Night Demon, are you afraid?", the High Priest looked back at the black robe hidden in the darkness behind him.

"It's not that I'm afraid of Chu You, there is a great priest here, why should I be afraid of him", the gaze of the high priest made his already drooping head hang even lower. "It's just that this person is not comparable to ordinary illusionists after all, not only is he skilled, but he is also outstanding for marching formations. If this person is not removed, it will eventually be a great trouble for my God Clan, and his appearance this time will always be a great trouble for my Clan."

The high priest stopped saying a word, and continued to walk forward, and only then did he say to the statue, "It is not sad that this fang has made you so frightened, and how can my dignified gods be afraid of him, and see how I destroy his soul." After finishing speaking, the high priest suddenly sneered, "This time, the patriarch ordered me to come in person, just to meet this Chu You for a while."

The night demon walked to the statue, but did not dare to look directly at the statue, which represented the supreme power and intention of the entire beast race. The patron saint of the barbarians, even if it is just a statue, exudes a lot of power.

"In the battle of the wilderness, there was a mysterious powerhouse." As if remembering something, the night demon said in a hoarse voice.

"Oh?" the High Priest's pupils constricted, and his eyes looked at the Night Demon like a salient being, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Hearing this, the night demon suddenly took a step back, "Great sacrifice forgiveness, although those mysterious powerhouses appeared in the Heavenly Desolation War, they don't seem to be interested in the survival of Heavenly Desolate City."

"How so?"

"They took only two men from the city and hurried away."

The high priest slowly stretched out his right hand to the statue, but at the moment when it was about to touch the statue, his right hand stopped in mid-air. "How many, why did they save those two people?"

"The subordinate doesn't know, but according to the bark. Two of them appeared there, and they couldn't see their faces clearly. However, there was no one in the demon army to compete with, and they watched as they rescued a woman. And there is also a human woman in our Protoss army, this woman is very skilled, after rescuing a human man under the butcher's knife of our army, she killed a bloody path and left." The Night Demon was not far away, and when he saw a woman suddenly appear, he sent a few masters to intercept him, but he was instantly forced back.

The High Priest withdrew his hand and pondered for a moment. "Such a person is not like an ordinary force."

"The Great Priest, do you mean ......?" The Daredevil seemed to remember something, but wasn't sure.

"Yes, Sword Emperor Gate, or Huangquan Pavilion." The High Priest sneered, stretched out his hand, and gently stroked the statue of the guardian god of the beast clan, his movements were extremely gentle, "Or." Meteorite Peak".

In Sanssouci City, all kinds of costumes emerge in an endless stream, and pedestrians are in a hurry, running back and forth. On the occasion of extinction. The most luxurious Liuxiang restaurant in Sanssouci City, compared with the past, it is inevitable that the courtyard is deserted and the wine customers are thin. Since the rumors of the slaughter of Tianhuang City spread to this city, the Liuxiang Restaurant, which has always been full of guests, has lost its former noise.

However. Not everyone was in a hurry to escape, and at this moment, a man with a black veil suddenly appeared in front of the restaurant. I glanced up at the signboard and walked in unhurriedly.

The waiter at the restaurant was already extremely nervous. At this moment, when I saw a strangely dressed person coming, I couldn't help but turn pale with fright, but the duty was that the waiter of the restaurant had to walk over, and said with a forced smile: "Your Excellency is staying in the hotel or drinking?"

"Private room, two bamboo leaf wine".

"Okay, you upstairs please, the bamboo leaf wine will be delivered soon." After saying that, the attendant hurriedly got behind the door.

The man with a black veil walked to the second floor by himself, the corridor was elegant and chic, the fragrance was permeated, all the way inlaid with various patterns and patterns, the lights flickered constantly, and the eyes were faintly dark under the black veil, but they did not squint. It seemed that the chaos outside the city and the crowds in the streets had nothing to do with him, and he just walked quietly through the long corridor and then entered a private room by the lake.

The waiter quickly brought the bamboo leaf wine, but an hour had passed, and he leaned against the window lattice and looked quietly at the lake, and the wine on the wooden table did not move.

Extreme shouting and scolding could be faintly heard in the streets and alleys. A burst of iron horsemen came in the dust, and a shrill voice shouted, "The city lord's mansion has an order, those who leave the city without permission will be killed; those who spread rumors and cause trouble will be killed; the reinforcements from Yinlu Imperial City have arrived, and the pressure of worry-free has been relieved."

"Hmph", under the black veil, the corners of his lips moved, "Imperial City reinforcements?"

However, Shen Sui's eyes suddenly looked at the roof of the building, as if they could penetrate the roof, "After observing for so long, don't you come down and drink a glass of wine?"

I saw a tremor on the glazed tile roof, and a cyan figure appeared in the house, "The Sword Emperor's door is not general, but it is a pity that he is willing to fall into the mortal world, and he would rather succumb to the world's momentum, which is really a sigh."

The man in Tsing Yi sat down at the wooden table, picked up the wine jug and poured wine into the porcelain cup.

"Oh? Huangquan Pavilion roosters and dogs are known to the world, and when I see it today, sure enough" The occasional ripples on the water spread out in a circle, and the wind blowing on the lake blew a corner of the black veil, but he ignored it and continued to look at the lake.

The man in Tsing Yi stopped pouring wine for an instant, looking at the person leaning against the window lattice. "The rumors that everyone in the Sword Emperor Gate is above the top and no one in their eyes is not in vain", the man in Tsing Yi continued to pour wine with a wine jug in his stiff hand.

"Heaven and earth have their own mighty spirit that lasts forever, and you dare to talk about dignity and humility, how can my Sword Emperor Sect be in the same stream as the Huangquan Demon", the man with the black veil sneered.

"The so-called heaven and earth are vast, but they are nothing, what is right? What is evil? What is loyalty and treachery? My Huangquan Pavilion has no rules, and I am free in this divine earth, and I have never been retributed by any heavenly reason? And regardless of good or evil, even if my Huangquan Pavilion is inhumane, my ancestors have not fought for results, so how can we be superior to you and me?" The man in Tsing Yi picked up a glass of bamboo leaf wine and sipped it lightly.

"Isn't it ridiculous that a demon demon dares to talk about the way of heaven in vain?"

"The way of heaven, how did the way of heaven exist, the body hair and skin, all the parents of the body, however, in the troubled times, there are many wars, all living beings are ants, life is like grass mustard, human life is as light as pigs and dogs, and the whole place is full of scorching and killing. Just like the Heavenly Desolate City and this Sanssouci City, the Sword Emperor prides himself on adhering to the way of heaven, but why can't he stop this chaotic situation? Let so many innocent lives disappear in vain? Is this the way of heaven?" The man in Tsing Yi drank the bamboo leaf wine in the cup, as if he was not satisfied, and lifted the wine pot to continue pouring wine.

Looking at the lake under the black veil, his eyes froze, as if he had touched a certain high-risk line of defense, and his pupils contracted violently, "There are many innocent lives in the world, all because of the gods and other people who hurt nature and reason, if not, the world will prosper."
