Chapter 55: The Crescent Moon Plays Peacefully
The shallow blue sea, not far from the shore, is a quiet and beautiful island.
There is a simple but elegant grass-roofed wooden house on the island, and there are many fish and shrimp outside, most of which are gifts from nearby villagers.
Outside the wooden house, an old man with a hunched back on crutches sighed a little tired and helpless: "Alas, what a rare guest. ”
The image of this "rare guest" in front of him is completely different from him.
Green shirt and long coat, elegant and handsome, like a merry and famous man.
"I don't want to disturb your rest. The man in the green shirt smiled with his hand, "Although mortal life is good, it can't always be like this. Isn't it, Baise Immortal?"
The old man coughed a few times, shook his head and said, "The old man is not an immortal for a long time, just a strange old man who lives alone on a desert island and occasionally gives people a sick look. Why should Mr. Nan Sheng insist on it?"
"You also know the identity of the last mortal below, and the news is still quite well-informed. The man in the green shirt shook his head and smiled, "That date is approaching, and you should know it too." Under the nest, if there are eggs, and then there is a place to live in seclusion?"
The old man turned around tremblingly, and his wrinkled eyes looked into the distance, "I'm old, in this world, there are naturally young people to guard." What can the dying body do to help you?"
Birdsong was heard in the sky.
Mr. Nan Sheng walked up to him and said solemnly: "To the north of Lingwan, a small stream flows out of five-colored poisonous water. ”
The old man of Baise shook his head and said: "Hundreds of tribulations are fighting, immortals and demons are overturning, what can I, a powerless remnant, do?"
Then the cave at the source of the creek collapsed, revealing a crack into the ground that contained the houses of the ancient relics. ”
The old man of Baise was speechless for a while, and finally trembled slightly after a long time: "Ancient Ruins!"
"You should know that that's something we can't afford to lose. Mr. Nansheng sighed, "I don't want to disturb your peace, but I do need your ability to guide us." ”
"The old man's life is not worth mentioning, but in the mortal realm, you are also tied to your wings, and if you go to that place, you will have to die. Why don't you ask for the help of a real person in this mortal world?"
"It's a complicated and delicate matter, we don't have all the trust they have, and they haven't really gotten our approval yet. In any case, the road ahead, our generation can only go to it. ”
"Lin Yi!
He opened his eyes and found himself floating in a misty void.
"Lin Yi, can you hear the voice below?"
His eyes gradually condensed, and in front of him was a pale figure in a paper robe.
"This, where is this?" he asked weakly towards Bai Wuchang, "I...... Dead?"
"You're in a deep coma. Bai Wuchang shook his head, "The collapse of the Netherworld is getting worse and worse, and it has become farther and farther away from the mortal world, and now only at this time can I establish contact with you." ”
No wonder this guy hasn't come out for so long...... Lin Yi shook his head violently, finally sobering up, "Can I still wake up?"
"Your vitality is not dead, and it shouldn't be a big problem. You'll wake up soon. ”
"It's fine. ”
He suddenly found that while he was glad that he was still alive, he was also a little relieved that the important task of survival of the life and death of a thousand worlds had not come to naught.
When did you start coming up with such stupid ideas?
"Listen to me, Lin Yi. The first pillar is about to collapse, and the others will be unable to support it. If you don't talk about the affairs of the secluded mansion, the mortal world will also be affected. ”
"Are you saying that Nightshade is back in that situation?"
"That's just the initial situation. The first pillar falls, and the memory is not collected. The second pillar falls, and the flesh does not rot. The third pillar falls, and the ghast is not bound. If the fourth pillar is also destroyed and falls, the mortal world will also face a great catastrophe. You have to be careful. ”
"What should I do? The Vision is not without clues, but with my current abilities, it is simply out of reach. ”
"The final solution is still to collect the Divine Eye and enter the Divine Vein to repair the Pillar of Darkness. Until then, extraditing the Remnants would be able to alleviate the pressure on the Pillar and delay its collapse. ”
"I've never been able to understand what the rules of the remnants on the soul list are, why are there only so many choices at a time?"
"I can't understand Sen Luo's wishes, so we can only follow her guidance. In the face of the catastrophe, she has her own will. There are three kinds of remnant spirits on the soul list, one is the constant spirit, which has existed on the soul list for a long time, but if it is too far beyond your ability, it will not be displayed, or it will be displayed but locked, one is the domain spirit, which will only be displayed when it is close to the distance, and the other is the hidden spirit, which can only be triggered on the soul list if you see it in person. All three of these types can effectively reduce the pressure on the pillar. There are also those remnants that will not appear on the soul list, more like ordinary resentful souls, and their influence on the pillar is very limited, but they can only get some ghost coins. ”
"One more question, lately I can see the momentum around other people when they fight, what's going on?"
"This is the ability that you gain as your bond with the system deepens. Although you can't cultivate your own momentum before, you can see the ups and downs of your potential, which is always useful for battle. In addition, there will be some new abilities in the system that have not yet appeared, and you can only slowly comprehend them in the future, so my time is running out......"
Bai Wuchang's figure gradually blurred.
"Hey, wait, will my world be affected by this?"
Bai Wuchang seemed to be saying something, but the voice could no longer come in.
Lin Yi opened his eyes suddenly.
The first thing that catches the eye is a pair of huge eyes.
The eyes flickered a few times, and then suddenly cried out:
"He's awake, he's awake! Grandpa, he's awake!"
Then there was a string of stumbling and running sounds of "bang bang".
"Beep!"
This was followed by a clear chirp.
The peacock flew over his head from the window, the size of a sparrow, paused for only a moment, and then flapped its wings and flew out.
Lin Yi struggled to sit up, and saw the little girl staggering back again, holding a bowl of steaming soup in her hand.
"Big brother, are you alright?" The girl put the bowl on top of her head with both hands, just next to him, as if it was a soup bowl that could float by herself, and she was cute and cute.
Lin Yi hurriedly took the soup and held it in his hand. The girl immediately approached him, tilted her head, stared at him with a pair of big eyes curiously and concerningly, and asked in a tender voice, "Big brother, are you okay?"
She looked no more than four or five years old, about the height of a couch, with two braids on her head, and she looked very cute.
Lin Yi couldn't help but reach out and touch her head, and smiled: "I'm fine, thank you." ”
"My name is Yingying!" she tiptoed and asked very happily, "What's your name, big brother?"
"My name is Lin Yi. Lin Yi looked around, he was in a somewhat dilapidated wooden house, and from the window, he could see the lush woods and birds flying around, which seemed to be a calm place. "Yingying, where is this?"
Yingying raised a hand and said softly like a student in the study hall: "It's my home!
"It's Crescent Village. ”
Lin Yi turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw an old man holding a large plate in his hand, smiling and walking in, "The village is at the bottom of the cliff, built by the lake, and there is little contact with the outside world. ”
He walked over slowly and handed the plate to Lin Yi, "You've been in a coma all day, eat something." ”
The plate is filled with steaming rice, sautéed leaves, and a chicken thigh.
Lin Yi took the plate, solemnly placed it on the armrest next to the couch, and said solemnly: "Thank you for saving your life, in Lin Yi, dare to ask the old man's surname?"
The old man smiled and shook his head: "It's just a village man, the old man's surname is Huang, and everyone in the village calls me Lao Huang, and I have forgotten my original name." I run a restaurant in the village, and I do the work of a hunter like the villagers, and the day before yesterday I hunted upstream and saw you washed up on the shore. Fortunately, the young man has strong muscles and bones, and he is blessed with great fortune, and few of those who fell from the cliff survived. It's far away, you're still weak, hurry up and eat. ”
"Yes. Lin Yi nodded respectfully, picked up the soup and drank it all in one sip, then he picked up the plate and beckoned to Yingying, "I'm a little full, Yingying, can you help me eat this chicken leg?"
Yingying swallowed her saliva quietly, put her hands behind her back, and said tenderly: "Yingying doesn't eat, big brother, you eat." ”
This girl was born very cute, but she was a little too thin. Although the old man looks strong and strong, his steps are a little vain. This plate of rice and a chicken thigh, for the family.
Lin Yi stuffed the chicken leg into Yingying's hand and said seriously: "My brother just woke up and doesn't want to eat meat, this Yingying can help me eat it." ”
Yingying picked up the chicken leg and said timidly, "Really?"
"Hmm!" Lin Yi smiled and nodded heavily.
The warbler finally carefully put the chicken leg in her mouth and took a bite, but this bite almost bit off half of the chicken leg. Then her little belly growled twice.
The old man wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything, just reached out and rubbed the top of the warbler's head and sighed.
Lin Yi smiled at him, picked up the plate, picked up the chopsticks, and rushed the rice into his mouth, he was really hungry.
As soon as he stuffed his mouth full of rice, he suddenly remembered something and muttered indistinctly, "Uncle, my sword is still there, right?"
Lao Huang frowned and said, "When I saw you, the backpack was still on my body, but I didn't see the weapon." ”
"What!"
