Chapter 286: Life and Death, Life and Not Life
The next day is like autumn, a closed eye falls into the black sun, a open eye the sky is dark, it is true, the pool of water is clear, turning into a human shadow, like devouring people's hearts, transparent makes people panic, Li Shui saw his own shadow and saw his face, it breathed repeatedly, as if listening to the subtle movements in the distance.
Here, in the distant mountains of Minglu, there is an old man in the mountains, eagle-eyed and thick-faced, accompanied by nine dolls, he knows the hard life, but when he heard him call out hoarsely, with a hint of sweetness, a woman walked away in a blink of an eye, her eyes are like apricots, her lips are red and thin, her eyebrows are black and straight, she is dressed in a red robe, her willow skirt is lightly swinging, and she looks really like his daughter.
Rotten bamboo woke up from his slumber, squinted up, couldn't help yawning, it didn't seem to have slept enough, he supported himself strongly, and accidentally continued to sleep on the ground, listening to it sneering: "Children, don't go anywhere today, accompany Lao Tzu to spend tonight, this is an unforgettable day, you look at the ghost mountain hundreds of miles away, it is about to sink, and a new year is about to begin!"
Shan Quan Ancestor got up and dusted off his white clothes, his big toe got out of front of his shoes, took a snot and walked to the shore, the water in the lake reflected his old face, and his white hair hung down, he knew that no one would follow in the distance, and he thought peacefully about the years he had dissipated, and remembered his previous time.
"Boys, look closely. There are ghosts in the mountains will be in the past, and the sealing of the sky will be unsealed today, and the sun and moon of the beginning will be the opportunity of the fifth layer of the mountains and seas. Tell me, what do you want?"
Shan Quan Ancestor was the first to look at Li Shuishan, but he was still in a blur, and the sun that was slightly exposed in the sky was a little scorching, making his whole body boil, his chapped lips pursed together, and he replied lightly: "The road of the tenth layer." ”
This sentence was said by the Gan Cicada Daoist instead of Li Shuishan, but it caused the face of the ancestor of Shanquan to change suddenly, he waved his sleeves, and said loudly: "Who are you who dares to answer my question on his behalf, who gave you the guts?"
He pinched the trick with one hand, grabbed Li Shuishan's figure, and a breath rolled with it, pulling the surrounding mist to churn, and a small dragon chant came out, and the eyes of the dry cicada Taoist paused slightly, and hurriedly explained: "The seniors are angry! ”
There was a crisp cicada sound in the dragon's voice, but before it fell into the ears of the ancestor of Shanquan, it was extinguished by another force, it seemed that this little trick had already fallen on the clean water, and the person who controlled the power in the water was the old man standing on the shore, he looked intimidating and angry, as if he didn't care about his apology, and a mirror appeared in the water flow that gently moved out, shining on Li Shuishan's face.
Li Shuishan's consciousness ached, the person who appeared in the mirror was an old man, this person was not as old as Shanquan Ancestor, but he was just a villain, his whole body was full of blood, and the nine horns coiled under his legs sent out a dragon groan that collided with each other, there was a drop of blood under his eyebrows, squirming gently, he sat like a clock, and sighed: "Shanquan Ancestor, it is better to see it from afar, now, I understand why people who have come into contact with you will say that you are a moody person." ”
Shan Quan Ancestor heard a trace of old words from Li Shuishan's mouth, but he didn't care, because he had seen thousands of spells, even young to old faces were glanced at them, but he never forgot it, he had already heard the story of the four layers, but he didn't want to recall these, so he faintly looked into the distance and said: "The four layers are new."
Master, some people call you a dry cicada Taoist, you are so ruthless to abandon your Dao heart, and choose a cicada, a creature that only lives in summer, for a short lifespan?"
Li Shuishan showed a smile, he should know that Shanquan Ancestor would not blame him, if it weren't for survival and his own beliefs, where would he want to come here and make a move against a generation of ghost saints, this is not looking for death?
didn't die, but he was lucky enough to have a good deed this time. If you die, you deserve it.
"If it weren't for the destiny of the person you borrowed from, you would have died on the road. ”
Li Shuishan said lightly: "You guessed right, this may be the opportunity given to me by God to see my fate, and it is also my only chance, I see what I want to see, maybe I will disappear between heaven and earth." ”
Shan Quan Ancestor saw those eyes, as well as the unknown power, killed one after another residual powerhouses, and turned to the monks who had the hope of entering the mortal realm, this kill, is all, the remnants of him escaped a catastrophe with some of his own ingenious techniques, but this catastrophe is still there, as long as he stays in the mountains and seas, it will not disappear.
"The mountain ghosts and ghosts are still alive, you have failed, the lord of the sixth layer is white-faced, the lord of the seventh layer is the master of the grass leaf sky, and the lord of the eighth layer has a broken arm and scatters the three souls; the mulberry people are dead, burning the fire of life, and turning into a sacrificial spirit; Wang Ruokun, the sword master of Wanjian Mountain, and the guardian of Tibet, Tiannanyue, have broken their lives, and it is difficult to recover for a thousand years; the sun and moon are ghostly and shadowy, divided into a half-phantom sun, and the phantom moon.... Maybe I escaped this alone. ”
"Now, the catastrophe has found the weakness of the ghosts in the mountains, and with the help of the mutated mountain ghosts and ghost saints, it has triggered reincarnation, this is another killing, and I will be the first to meet the catastrophe..."
Li Shuishan woke up, he re-touched half of his body, said a few words to the dry cicada Daoist, stood up, Shanquan Old Ancestor turned his head, looked at the young man with purple meaning, sighed, and said: "Purple is demonic, in your body, I have no solution." ”
In a short breath, the blue robe Li Shuishan was wearing turned blue-purple, and gradually all turned purple, and he asked lightly: "The solution is on my own, and you can't help me." ”
They all looked into the distance, and gradually a strong thunderclap fell, red lightning pierced the earth in the distance, densely arranged, and the miserable ghost roar echoed in the dusk, and the faces of the sun were now swallowed up by the night, revealing half a moon, which was not strange to others, the crescent moon was a little tilted, and the others were not strange, but when it shone on the Taoist person, half of the human body appeared, whether it was a tree, or a stone, and a red halo turned on it.
This night, none of them fell asleep, the nine dolls of Shanquan Ancestor seemed to have gone and never returned, but he did not regret and grieved, pulled the woman with one hand and touched her face carefully, gently stroked her hair, just beside the two young people, slowly closed their eyes and rested, Li Shuishan could no longer sleep, he looked at the moonlit night with constant thunder and lightning, wanted to return to his Tibetan peak, remembered the old madman, he muttered: "It's been so long, I don't know if the master misses me?"
And he talked with the dry cicada Taoist for a few hours, from his mouth, Li Shuishan also understood some deep truths, he also wanted to go to the tenth layer to see, thinking of the team that followed closely behind, the mountain giant, a few of his friends, if it went well, the fourth layer should go up, at this time, it should be rushed to the fifth time, but time waits for no one, if you rest here for a few more days
, the dry cicada Taoist with a weak soul will definitely dissipate halfway.
He pondered for a long time, thought about what choice he was going to make, and then set his eyes on Rotten Bamboo, when he came into contact with this young man at that time, although he was bound to a closed place, everything he saw, and the words of conversation were imprinted in his mind, all he walked to Rotten Bamboo's side gently, sat down, and did not say a word.
Rotten bamboo raised his eyebrows and landed on the young man's body, these two young people were silent at this time, as if they had thought of something, and they were timid again, and finally Li Shuishan still said thank you softly, and there was a word to ask him how pale these simple words were, and Rotten Bamboo was even more embarrassed, he had already felt the change in the young man in front of him, and he had a bad idea in his heart.
If this person is reincarnated with great power, he must be killed, because after this kind of strong person retains his memory, he will grow up quietly after reincarnation, after all, they don't want to attract more people to know this secret because of some things, and cause him more trouble, so he frowned and thought of what the master said to him, if you want to know the future, please strike first.
This attack was not a sword fight, but a word of restraint, but the pressure he felt was greater than ever, because he didn't know when he would suddenly erupt.
Li Shuishan took a step ahead of him and said, "Brother Rotten Bamboo, maybe you have some doubts about my identity, right?"
Rotten Bamboo thought for a moment and nodded.
Li Shuishan grabbed a stone and gently threw it into the lake, the first sound he heard was the sound of the mirror shattering, followed by the drowning sound of the stone entering the water, he exhaled a cold breath and said: "I am not a powerful reincarnation, but you have to help me keep my secret." ”
Rotten Bamboo fell into deep thought again, but then spoke, "The man of destiny?"
After Li Shuishan heard it, he smiled, nodded and said: "It seems that you know that the people of destiny are not governed by their own fate, I don't know when I was born, I don't know when I left my mother's arms, all my childhood memories have been cut off, I have walked out of my most reluctant place, the trajectory of fate seems to be very frustrated, I don't know if I will go into the mortal world, but I know that all this is in the hands of the legendary immortal, I want to go and see who this immortal is?"
"I was born ordinary, but unwilling, and unwilling to be at the mercy of others, I walked step by step to this road, all turned into a smooth road in the turn, and the next intersection appeared, when I chose, there was always a consciousness affecting me. ”
"Do you know what this is?"
Rotten Bamboo shook his head and looked at him curiously.
Li Shuishan sighed, "I don't know, I'm looking for it too." ”
"Do you want to drink?" Li Shuishan grabbed the half pot of wine that he had put in it from his sleeve, took a sip of it himself, and threw it to him, after both of them drank it, he continued: "I think, you are also looking for something in your heart, right?"
Rotten bamboo nodded resolutely, as if to tell him that this road is right, but it is difficult to walk, The two looked at each other again, haha laughed, as if thinking of what they have in common, cultivation must be lonely, loneliness is not necessarily cultivation, but the road is accompanied by someone, it is a beautiful thing, why not?
But life is not a game, no one wants to live and die, and life is not for life.
