"Uh-"

A shuddering exclamation abruptly erupted!

In the cave, Yue Yue opened his eyes violently and sat up straight, like a zombie, with a cold sweat on his head, his eyes were blank and complicated.

"What's wrong?"

A gentle and worried voice immediately came from the side.

The person next to the pillow was also awakened.

......

Over the years, the two have been together for a long time, but they have never had children, this is Yue Yueran's last insistence on his Dao heart.

At this moment, Fluttershy is already a middle-aged woman in her forties, and wrinkles have already crept up the corners of her eyes and forehead because of her weather.

“...... It's okay, I had a dream. ”

Yue Yuran said lightly.

Fluttershy stares at him.

"Is it that dream again, are they calling you back again?"

“...... Be. ”

"Senior brother, do you really plan to spend your life in this life to find this way to leave, even if you find nothing in the end?"

A pair of gradually blurred beautiful eyes, trembling slightly, as if the glass would be broken at any time, her own Dao fire had already been almost extinguished.

Yue Yue was silent!

He is also a middle-aged man at the moment, but his straight waist is still as straight as it was back then, and his whole body exudes a thicker and heavier breath like a mountain.

However, after more than 20 years of mortal time, there is no longer a little bit of the flying and laughing appearance of before.

When Fluttershy saw him silently, her eyes turned red quickly.

He did not speak, but lay down with his back to him.

Tears in the eyes, collapse, slipping down!

"Sometimes, I feel like you're a monster...... How can a monk who has only cultivated to our age have such an iron-hearted heart and a paranoid Dao heart?"

After a few moments, Fluttershy speaks again.

The voice was like crying, and the tears broke down even more.

When Yue Yuran heard this, his eyes were also extremely painful, and his heart was like a knife.

Over the years, the most important thing he can't stand is playing Fluttershy, but there are some things that he can never say.

He has been a human being in two lives, and he has cultivated in two lives, of course, his Dao heart will be much firmer than that of ordinary monks, not to mention, he has experienced difficulties that cannot be found in later lives, and in this life, he must seize the opportunity when he dies!

Silently, he steps down from the blanket on the ground, covers Fluttershy, and walks out of the cave.

The sound of crying sounded loudly behind him.

......

Outside the cave, the stars and the moon disappeared, and it was dark.

Nearby, there was nothing but two horses, including the Heavenly Child.

Life is short, cats are even shorter!

This three-legged cat had died of old age a few years ago, adding another wound to Yue Yueran's heart, that is, from that time on, Fluttershy began to desire to grasp the last bit of mortal life, and her Dao fire began to extinguish from that time.

Yue Yueran leaned on the mountain, really like a monster, silent.

Boundless darkness came and enveloped him.

Motionless, like a statue!

In my heart, it is magnificent, and countless scenes are churning in my mind.

Suddenly, it was the self who was bent on seeking the Tao in later generations, suddenly it was the self who took Fluttershy and Xiao Wanzi in this life, and suddenly it was the figure who helped Tieshan Tierou and others.

"Which one is the real me?"

A night of churning in my head.

Eventually, he fell asleep.

......

The next morning, he wakes up with a blanket on his body, and the smell of roasted dry food is not far away, and he is like a good wife and mother to Fluttershy, grilling food.

In his eyes, he seemed to be clear again, and there was no superfluous emotion.

"Come on, junior brother, after breakfast, continue to look for the passage, I will accompany you as long as you want to find it!"

Fluttershy says, as if she wants to open it.

When Yue Yuran heard this, a bitterness welled up.

Soon, hit the road again.

Between the two, there are fewer and fewer words, as if they are very familiar with the old husband and wife, and as if they are strangers who don't know each other.

Over the mountains!

Walk across the sea!

The two of them are getting older and more silent, sometimes not saying a word all day and for a whole month, like two walking monsters.

The edge of this world, which has been almost explored by them, seems to be a huge island-like existence, and the edge is full of oceans.

And after walking all over the edge, the footsteps of the two have begun to move towards the center.

As for the other monks they encountered, they came and went.

......

On this day, I went to a cottage again.

Before entering, I could already smell the strong smell of blood, and the red blood water flowed out from the entrance of the cottage.

"Haha, since my dream of cultivation is over, naturally someone will accompany me to the funeral—"

The sound of strange laughter also came, eerie and sharp, like an old eagle owl.

That's Qin Shaohao's voice, it's still crazy in the end!

Yue Yueran was silent, leading Fluttershy to walk past the corpse in one place, and in the stunned gaze of the goosebump-haired Qin Shaohao, he shot him with one arrow!

On this day, another ridge was turned.

In the opposite direction, someone was coming.

Panwang's long golden hair has begun to turn white, his clothes are ragged, his face is wrinkled, and his eyes seem to be slightly blank!

This guy, who still doesn't know how strong he was when he was a monk, seems to have reached the time of faltering.

His gaze and Yue Yue were wrong, and he was silent until there was no more arrogant sneer.

On this day, walking on the side of the road again, some people were drunk like mud.

"Boy, are you still looking?"

"Don't look like we've drunk too much, but we haven't given up yet!"

If the sea is like a distant journey, he is already middle-aged and elderly.

There is still pride in his mouth, but he is sloppy and tired.

On this day, I went to another village, and the stench of corpses hit the sky, and when I looked inside, there were all decomposed corpses, and the corpses were left with terrible marks.

"It's the plague. ”

Yue Yuran said three words lightly.

I searched the whole village, but I didn't see any living people, and even if some were alive, I was afraid that they would run away.

This night, the two rested in the mountains again, and the dream struck again.

"Can you come back?"

"Can you come back?"

One after another, shouts cleansed the mind.

......

The next day, hit the road again and set off again.

There are still monks, but more often than not, mortal disasters, droughts, floods, pestilences, famines, including those from the mad monks, either way, almost a large number of deaths.

was as tough as Yue Yueran, and his heart trembled again and again from the impact.

As her eyes swept over Fluttershy, she looked at her even older face, and her heart was like a knife again and again.

Walk through the mountains.

Walk through the water.

After a short mortal life, there is still nothing.

This night, in the wilderness by the spring, the two of them slept with their backs to each other, without any intimacy, Yue Yuran opened his eyes, how could he not sleep, what about the play Fluttershy next to him?

"Senior sister, I'm going to go back. ”

A deep voice rose quietly, revealing an indescribable desolation.

"Where are you going?"

After a long time, Fluttershy replies.

"Back to the little mountain village where I was taken in when I first came in. ”

"Has your Dao fire finally been extinguished?"

"No, it's not extinguished, it will never be extinguished, but I'm not going to look for it anymore, I decided to spend the rest of my life teaching those mortals, and I will spend the rest of my life with you. ”

The sound of weeping, from behind.

Fluttershy turned around and hugged Yue Eran hard.

......

Whip up your horse and hit the road again.

Along the way, my mind was indescribably relaxed, as if I had finally found a goal to live, even if there was still a slight sense of amazement.

Rush all the way!

On this day, I finally returned to that small mountain village.

"Brother Yue, you're finally back!"

Tierou was overjoyed.

"Brother Yue, I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Tie Shan also came out, followed by a large number of villagers, all looking at him with extremely bright eyes, with a happy smile on their faces, and in that happy smile, it seemed that there was no deep meaning.

"Impossible, impossible—"

Yue Yueran's heart shook and he stood there.

Every villager ushered in was actually the villager of the year, and everyone's appearance was the same as it was back then, and there was no getting old.

The next moment, the world outside the body became blurred, like the rippling surface of the water!
