Chapter Ninety-Nine: Names
"The puppet ruined two, it's really heart-wrenching, but fortunately, you are obsessed enough and resentful enough, but you are qualified to become the new puppet of this seat, hehe......"
The man chuckled happily: "The outcast protΓ©gΓ© of the Taixuan Sect has become a puppet of my Demon Sect, I really don't know what the expression of that sect master will be when he sees it, it's really interesting." β
As he was talking to himself, a strange baby with a red body rolled out of his wide sleeve robe, and his blood-red mouth was about to bite off Wen Yu's stump body.
The purple-robed man stretched out his hand and patted the baby's head lightly, and the strange baby suddenly exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
The man's usual calm tone also cooled down, and the chill was inexplicable: "Is it that you are too tired of seeing the scenery in the world, and you are becoming more and more disobedient, and next time you dare to make a claim to move my things, I don't mind sending you to the Yellow Spring Hell." β
The blood mist that burst out recondensed into the appearance of a baby again, but the baby's breath was obviously slightly weak, lying on the ground trembling and grabbing the man's sleeve robe and not daring to make too many movements, looking at the man with pitiful eyes.
The purple-robed man sneered, but the movements in his hands were strange and inexplicably gentle, touched the baby's head, and said with a smile: "This is good, Fang is the one who scares you, you are her child, how can I bear to kill you, if you are more obedient, my heart will allow me to be happy, and I will take you to meet your father." β
The young baby understood the man's words, and his expression suddenly became excited, and his eyes turned scarlet because of excitement, but there was no warmth, only cruel hideousness.
The baby stretched out a scarlet tongue and licked its mouth violently, as if in anticipation.
The purple-robed man was obviously very satisfied with its state, laughed, and took the baby into his arms and kissed it.
"That's right! Remember your state of hunger and gluttony, and when you see your father again, you must remember to eat him, you must not be soft-hearted, and you must eat cleanly, and you can't leave anything behind, because that's the only way to ......."
The pitch-black eyes under the metal ghost's face flashed with a crazy and treacherous light: "Because that's the only way, Taixuan Second Scripture...... There will be no more awakening days, and this is really exciting. β
Passing through the barrier at the bottom of the lake, Bailian was once again immersed in the icy lake water, and Lin Yuan carried the bodies of Bailian and Lin Guiyuan in his left hand and continued to swim towards the lake.
The strange thing is that Lin Yuan, who had already turned into legs, reappeared when he fell into the lake, and the beautiful and familiar blue fishtail reappeared.
After going ashore, Lin Yuan looked at his legs that had been conjured out again with a complicated expression, and his eyes were stunned.
She quietly raised her head and stole a glance at Brian, and there seemed to be some kind of vague worry and uneasiness in her blue eyes.
The mountains and forests are silent, and there is no sunlight in the sky, which makes it all a little pale.
However, the ancient sacred tree, which was once large enough to cover most of the lake, is now full of leaves, and the ground is full of desolate and dead leaves, and only the branches are still a little alive.
The ancient giant tree is no longer gloomy, and it is so dead that it seems to die at any moment.
Brian looked at the eyes that were about to close on the body of the ancient tree, and knew that the long curse-like life of this mountain god old tree had come to an end, and only the last trace of obsession in his heart had supported it until now.
His pupils were completely wooden, like rings of ancient trees.
He couldn't turn his gaze, but the old man clearly felt the breath of Lin Guiyuan and Lin Yuan at this moment, and the hollow and defeated pupils changed slightly.
The old man's facial features had become wooden, and he couldn't speak, but his voice resounded in the mountains and forests with a magical power.
"My children...... I'm finally home. The old man's kind voice was as gentle as ever.
Lin Guiyuan looked at such an old man blankly, his face and pupils were as desperate as his eyes.
Lin Yuan's body shook violently, and Bai Lian immediately stepped forward to hold her steady, watching her slowly close her eyes and cover her eyes with her arms.
"The matter in the mountains has fallen into the dust, and the old man is most at ease with the two children of Yuan'er and Guiyuan, the new mountain master, can the old man entrust all my two children to you?"
Brian looked up at the Divine Tree whose life had reached its limit, the trunk was gray and scattered, and he nodded slowly.
The old man's voice carried a hint of guilt: "The old man is sorry, I can't give the new mountain lord a complete empty mountain. β
Brian smiled slightly, and said softly, "You gave me a place to settle down. β
The old man sighed, and read his child's name faintly: "Guiyuan, Yuan'er ......"
Lin Guiyuan moved stiffly.
I only heard the old man whisper with a hint of earnestness: "You ...... Can I come to the old man? Let the old man see you again. β
The two of them walked to the old man with great difficulty.
For they both knew in their hearts that when the last wish of the old man was fulfilled, they would never see each other again......
The old man finally got his wish, and his hollow and wooden-shaped eyes seemed to contain the marquee of eternal years, withering like flowers and leaves.
Two badly damaged and desertified tree vines slowly stretched out, climbing on the cheeks of Lin Yuan and Lin Guiyuan, as if lingering.
"Yuan'er, you are the first child that the old man picked up, although your past is unfortunate and cruel, but the old man hopes that you will not forget...... You were born from the sea, you are the son of the god of the sea, and no matter how long or far you have been away from that sea, you will never forget your mission.
Even though the mission is too heavy, the old man can no longer bless you when you are young, and watch you grow up step by step, but your fate cannot be ignored, the sky cannot be violated, and the next road is ...... You still have to grit your teeth and go on, but you are not alone. β
In the end, the old man's eyes were stiff, and his eyes were relieved to see the straight and long legs that had been transformed under the golden robe.
Lin Yuan's beautiful eyes were wet and red, and he thought that he was persistent enough to face these, but when he heard the old man's gentle and hoarse voice, tears had already burst out uncontrollably.
"Lord Mountain...... I don't understand what you're talking about, and I don't want to understand it, this is my home, and you are my dearest relative. β
"Silly boy, talk stupid things. The broken vine gently stroked the top of her head, as if to make a final consolation.
"And Guiyuan......" The withered vines gently rubbed the terrifying and fatal scars on his neck, and his voice trembled slightly: "Do you know why the old man named you Guiyuan?"
Lin Guiyuan rubbed the rough vines with his cheeks, and there were no tears or light in his eyes, but there was a dark shadow hidden.
He said in a hoarse voice with a broken voice: "Father Mountain, you once said that my life was suspended, and I need to receive the blessing of the divine power of the six gods of the four heavenly stems, so I took the life of the five elements to return to the wall, and the meaning is the parade of the six gods, and everything is like everything, and now everything is varied, and the mountain father gave the golden black day dry vine that complements each other in the hope that the return to the wall can live up to its name......"
Speaking of this, he clenched stiffly, and said with a hint of self-hatred: "And I...... I don't deserve that name at all!"
