Chapter 22: The Long Darkness
There was an endless darkness, and I couldn't see my fingers.
Without sound, nothing can be felt.
"What ....... this?"
"Young man. ”
"Huh?"
"What's your name?"
"My name is ...... My head hurts. ”
"What's your name?"
"My name is ...... Ah.......h
"Who are you?"
"I....... Who am I?"
"Alas......"
As a sigh faded away, so did the darkness in front of you......
In front of you is a swordsman with a wine gourd hanging from his waist, a sword with one hand, long hair fluttering, and a handsome spirit.
"It's a familiar feeling...... I seem to know this person......"
Suddenly, a man in black passed through behind him, and slashed at the swordsman with a dark aura in the sky!
"Sun Shangrin!"
The swordsman shouted, and the man in black also shouted:
"Li Xiaoyao!"
Li Xiaoyao's sword conjured up three thousand sword shadows, and with a compelling true qi, he greeted Sun Shangrin.
Sun Shangrin and Li Xiaoyao are white and black, the two sword shadows are constantly intertwined, every time they face the sword, they will send out a huge shock wave, and the fierce sword qi with monstrous sword intent is scurrying between heaven and earth, and the mountains under their feet are cut into pieces, and the mountains collapse and crack.
The earth was cut open by the sword qi, the mountains were cut off by the sword qi, and a long river was cut off by the sword qi. The birds in the forest were frightened, the beasts were frightened and fled everywhere, many unlucky birds and beasts were killed by the sword qi, and what was even more painful was that many wild beasts were seriously injured and fell to the ground, dying, trampled by countless fleeing beasts, extremely painful. The corpses were all over the field, the blood was flowing like rivers, and the whole land was devastated and miserable.
The two faced off in the sky, the battle was hot, the true qi collided, the strongest swordsmanship in the world was all displayed at this moment, and the peerless sword moves were overwhelming in their duel, and they kept showing it like a home-cooked meal.
All of a sudden, the entire mountain range was devastated.
"Good..... It's amazing!"
The boy couldn't help but sigh. He also found his own strangeness, as if he did not belong to this world, the man in black passed through him, as if he didn't see himself at all, and the sword qi easily crossed the mountain, but quietly passed through his body, without feeling. The two men were not aware of their presence in the slightest, and they were observing the entire battle in the closest possible way from a strange presence, a strange perspective.
Collapse!
Suddenly, the whole world began to collapse, the sky shattered into pieces, fell, and the two people who fought also turned into flying sand and scattered, and the mountains, beasts, birds, and rivers all became fragmented at this moment, and gradually fell into bottomless darkness.
The boy was silent in the infinite darkness, unable to hear anything, unable to see anything.
Brush!
Suddenly, there was a sound in the distance, and gradually, the boy could see a little light, and he was rushing towards him from the far darkness.
It was a ray of light, like a strip of silk, long, long, with no end in sight, flying swiftly from afar.
Close, close.
The light flew in front of the young man's eyes, and there were countless scenes on the light, and he saw the man in black just now, Sun Shangrin, dressed in white, holding a demon sword, many, many duels, many people, many faces, with different expressions, some admired, some dissatisfied, some respected, some contempt, some admired, and some hated......
That man, holding the demon in his hand, stands proudly in the world, like a lonely and arrogant cold plum, does not compete with Baichun, walks his own way, wears white clothes, a long sword, and dictates the rivers and lakes. What an upright and pure hero.
As the scene moved, the boy saw Zhongyuan River, Zhongyuan City, Zhongyuan's marshmallows, and the girl who sold marshmallows, and she actually made the peerless swordsman Sun Shangrin look like a child.
Then he saw the man who was fighting against Sun Shangrin, with a wine gourd pinned to his waist, he was still young, he didn't have the courage to fight the sword world, he didn't have the calm and calm that he didn't panic at everything, but he was a little stubborn, he did whatever he wanted, and he was so free.
Then he saw the two meet and know each other, saw the Linjiang Teahouse, the two drank on the eighth floor, the infinite scenery, and then they rescued a richly dressed man, and then a beautiful man appeared.
Then the beautiful man led them up to the clouds, and the picture began to become mediocre, and then the space distorted, and out of the void came a white-haired old man on crutches.
The white-haired old man was talking about something, and then the light became dim and blurry, and he couldn't see anything clearly, and then after a long time, he came to the end of the long light.
All things withered, the rivers dried up, the earth cracked, and there were countless bottomless ravines, and there were potholes everywhere, and the mountains were broken, and the bodies of animals were everywhere, and the blood was gone, and the trees were burned to black coal, and the sky was dark and dreary, and there was terrible thunder, and suddenly there was a rain of blood in the sky, and it was terrifying, like the end of the world.
There were two figures standing in the sky, and looking intently, it was Li Xiaoyao and Sun Shangrin.
Both of them were very tired, their eye sockets were deep, Sun Shanglin was bleeding and tearful, Li Xiaoyao's eyes were full of determination, but his hand holding the sword couldn't stop trembling.
Both of them looked very tired, and they didn't know if they were tired of fighting or tired from this battle.
The expressions of the two people were very ugly, Sun Shangrin looked like he was laughing wildly, but there were bloody tears in the corners of his eyes, which was very weird. Li Xiaoyao pursed his lips tightly, and there was a firm light in his eyes, which was completely different from Li Xiaoyao's lazy eyes in the previous scene, but it was a bit like Sun Shangrin before, but the more he looked at it, the more it seemed that he was not so firm, full of hesitation, like a pretending firmness.
Both of them vaguely seemed to be crying, no, the expressions of these two were more ugly than crying.
After that, nothing can be seen, and the light is cut off, or rather, it comes to an end.
The light faded away and disappeared into the darkness.
"Young man, do you know who you are?"
The voice from the darkness sounded again.
"Who am I?"
"Who are you?"
The voice faded away, and then a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness in the distance.
The same satin-like light as the one just now rushed in.
A child lives on a green hill with a bearded uncle, who will tell the child stories, cook, teach him to practice swords, and the days go by.
Uncle likes to drink, and he has to drink two or three wine gourds every day. Looking closely, this sloppy uncle is the handsome swordsman Li Xiaoyao with a wine gourd pinned to his waist!
The scene flew by, and the child grew from a child to a boy, and then to a teenager who was about the same height as Li Xiaoyao.
Then the young man went down the mountain and met a fast, a red-haired girl appeared, and then the scene changed, and a thin man in a coat with a weird smile appeared, and then the man was crushed under the ruins of the Dongxi Teahouse.
The boy and girl went to Dongning City, and met an unconscious old woman on the way........
In the end, the scene on the light band was Sun Shangrin's remnant soul killing violently, and then the light band went black, stopped in front of the young man, and became like a mirror.
The young man looked at himself in the light mirror, and he was exactly the same as the young man in the light belt scene before.
"Who are you?"
"I am ......"
The young man looked at himself in the mirror, confused, and a little surprised.
"Who are you?"
The voice in the darkness asked again.
"I'm ...... I'm ......."
The young man reached out and touched the ribbon of light. The moment the band of light was touched by the boy, it began to flow again, and he saw two familiar faces.
A red-haired woman was caught by an old woman with four tentacles and hung in the air, the old grandmother's right hand was broken, the blood was not stopping, she raised her left hand, the black veins were dense, the true qi was surging, and in front of her was a group of farmers with farm tools in their hands. The red-haired woman shouted something, her expression very sad.
"Who are you?"
The boy looked at the red-haired girl, and he heard the girl's voice.
"Wake up!"
"I am ........"
The voices of the teenager and the girl overlapped at this moment, and the whole space became quiet. Only this one......
"Ouyang Yu!"
