Chapter 169: Life and Death
Blood was dripping down from the thick broken arm, which looked extremely bloody, and also made Qian Yi who came out of the woods look like a demon coming out of the Nine Shadows Yellow Spring, hideous and murderous.
Looking at his appearance, Nangong Ying and Geng Cheng, who also came to the entrance of the village, looked bad, especially Nangong Ying, whose face sank all of a sudden, staring at Qian Yi, with an undisguised expression of disgust on their faces. And although Geng Cheng was also frowning, maybe it was because he and Qian Yi were both disciples of the Xuanjian Sect after all, and there was still a friendship, so he laughed at the moment, but turned his head and whispered to Nangong Ying:
"Senior Brother Qian, who is usually good at everything, is a little more extreme, and he can be regarded as jealous and hateful......"
Nangong Ying interrupted him coldly and said, "Jealousy is like hatred, I think it's bloodthirsty and easy to kill! Such a person, with such a heart, as the lower gate of the Heavenly Sword Palace, the Xuanjian Sect is also an example of the righteous path in the world, and he will actually be included in the sect?"
Geng Cheng was silent, and he was speechless for a while, but after all, he was a little older, he knew the world, and he also understood the status and momentum of the Nangong junior sister in front of him in the Heavenly Sword Palace. At the moment, after secretly scolding Qian Yi in his heart, he still forced a smile and said: "He is actually quite peaceful in the door on weekdays, and rarely argues with others." It's just because he has suffered a big change since he was a child, and his parents and parents died unexpectedly at the hands of a thief who robbed the demon clan, so he hates these remnants of the demon clan to the core, and some of his actions seem a little excessive. I'll teach him a lesson again when I go back, and I ask my sister to be tolerant. ”
Nangong Ying's face changed, and she suddenly snorted coldly, and said, "The fame of the Heavenly Sword Palace for ten thousand years is not easy to come by, you are so self-sufficient!" After saying that, she turned around and beckoned directly, and a clear sword light flashed dazzling light, appearing out of thin air, carrying her directly into the air, straight into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, she galloped away into the distance like a lightning speed.
Geng Cheng watched Nangong Ying leave, and when he turned around again, his face was already very ugly, and at this time, Qian Yi, who was covered in blood, had already walked to the front of the village, and when he passed by Shen Shi's side, his footsteps paused slightly, and he seemed to stare at Shen Shi with deep meaning, and the hatred and fierce light flashed in his eyes, coupled with the dripping blood and pungent blood, in an instant, it actually reminded Shen Shi of the bloodthirsty and murderous demon general blood wolf in the demon world.
At this time, Geng Cheng's voice with a little anger came from not far behind, and said, "Qian Yi, what are you doing with this bloody body?"
Qian Yi turned his head to look at Geng Cheng, it seemed that he had respect for this fellow senior brother, and nodded, but there was no trace of fear in his expression, but he smiled and said: "I found a few fish from the demon clan yesterday in the forest, and I didn't like it, so I concocted it fiercely." ”
Shen Shi's body suddenly trembled violently again.
Geng Cheng snorted, looking obviously a little annoyed, and said: "How many times have I told you, don't be so extreme to the Demon Clan as soon as you come out, especially this time, your appearance is still in the eyes of Senior Sister Nangong, do you know how much trouble we will be if she goes back and say a few more words? Even the master may not be able to protect us!"
Qian Yi smiled coldly, and casually threw the broken arm to the ground, making a muffled sound of "poof", which also made Shen Shi, who was standing on the side, pale and pale, tremble like an electric shock.
Geng Cheng looked at Qian Yi's appearance, raised his head and sighed, shook his head and said: "That's it, that's it, I can't move you, anyway, you can do whatever you want, I won't come out with you in the future, it's really mud that can't support the wall!"
Saying that, he also turned his head and left, it seemed that he was disappointed in this junior brother to death, but after walking a few steps, he seemed to remember something again, turned his head angrily, pointed at Shen Shi, and said to Qian Yi: "Senior Sister Nangong has contacted the door, saying that there is indeed such a person as him under the Lingxiao Sect, and he has already sent someone to pick him up, you be honest, don't do anything foolish, otherwise the elders of the sect will be angry and blame, and you can't afford the consequences." ”
After finishing speaking, Geng Cheng turned around and continued to leave, and after a while, he disappeared from the village, and it seemed that he was not in the mood to continue to stay here. In front of the small village, only Shen Shi and Qian Yi remained.
A gust of wind blew from the distant field, blowing through the small river outside the village, causing a few ripples, and then blowing leisurely over Shen Shi's body. In the wind, there seemed to be a bit of blood, which came from Qian Yi, who was like a fierce god not far from him.
The bright red blood, from the forest here, dyed a dazzling and shocking blood.
Qian Yi glanced at Shen Shi coldly, his eyes were like a hungry wolf staring at his prey, and after a while, he suddenly smiled evilly, reached out and gently wiped the blood droplets on his face, and threw it casually, and the blood stains were slightly intentionally or unintentionally thrown onto Shen Shi's clothes.
"Stinky boy, you're in luck!"
After saying this, he didn't look at Shen Shi anymore, and walked into the village with a bloody body.
Shen Shi stood there in a daze, staring at the stump arm on the ground, his breathing became more and more rapid, and the bloodshot in his eyes was faint, and the little black pig beside him looked a little irritable at the moment, and kept gently scraping the ground with his hooves.
The dazzling and crimson blood seemed to turn into an endless sea of blood in his eyes, drowning the top of his head so that he could barely breathe, and in his mind, the terrible scream not long ago had been echoing endlessly, like an awl, constantly tormenting and stinging his soul, and a feeling of panic and even worry and urgency occupied all of Shen Shi's body.
Suddenly, he rushed out of the wood, and ran desperately towards the depths of the forest, along the bloody path.
While running, it seemed that a voice was roaring in his heart at this time, he never knew that he would be so afraid, even if he had experienced so many battles in the past three years when he was struggling to survive in the demon world, and when he was at the moment of life and death, he was not as afraid as he was at this time.
Rushing into the woods, the bright light is suddenly blocked by the canopy, and the light and shadow are intertwined, as if the forest and the forest are two completely different worlds.
Shen Shi let out a heavy wheezing sound, and ran forward desperately, there were still distinct blood stains left on the ground between the branches and leaves, running all the way, over the big trees, across the dense thorns and shrubs, even if the sharp thorns cut through his clothes, skin and flesh, Shen Shi seemed to be completely unaware.
His eyes were just staring ahead, following the bloodstains, running and running desperately.
The breath echoed in the quiet forest, and then at some point, it came to an abrupt end!
The bloody aura seemed to be ten times stronger suddenly, just behind the big tree in front of him, Shen Shi vaguely remembered some familiar scenes in front of him, as if it was the place where he stayed all night last night.
He stared at the place, his steps heavy as if they had suddenly been filled with lead, but he finally mustered up the courage to turn the thick trunk of the tree and look ahead.
The green and verdant glade had been stained red by bloody blood at this time, and the jar of wine containing the carved wine rolled weakly to the side, and even the remnants of the wine seemed to reflect a little red.
The old and stiff old monkey demon sat on the ground with his head bowed and his back against a big tree, his feet were irregularly and dazzlingly twisted, as if he had been trampled off by life, and his body was directly pierced through the abdomen by a thick and sharp wooden stick with a fist, and was nailed to the tree.
And not far from him, the majestic and powerful stone pig was lying in a pool of blood, the only remaining arm had been cut off again, and there were countless wounds on his body, large and small, as if he had been wounded by a sharp blade, and his hideous and vicious face was already full of distorted pain.
But the pig demon in the pool of blood is not dead at this moment, and he still refuses to faint, he screams in a voice with unknown meaning, and screams desperately, like an old white monkey.
But the old white monkey's head kept hanging down, and there was no response.
So the stone pig was red-eyed, roared and screamed and struggled to crawl towards the old white monkey, even though he had no arms, but still desperately squirmed on the ground, so he came to the old white monkey's side, leaned on his body, and tried to pull out the wooden stick from his abdomen.
But he didn't have hands.
Not a single one is left.
The stone pig's eyes seemed to be cracked, and his body trembled incessantly, whether it was from severe pain or rage, and then he suddenly lowered his head, opened his mouth, and desperately bit the stick with his teeth, desperately struggling to pull the stick out of the old white monkey's belly.
This is the scene that Shen Shi saw with his own eyes when he rushed back.
The whole world seemed to suddenly freeze and freeze, and then like a thunderclap exploded in the depths of his soul, he could not hear all the sounds, and the bright world seemed to suddenly fall into boundless darkness, leaving only endless blood and despair.
He roared and rushed over, and suddenly knelt beside the two demon clans, his hands trembling incessantly, and only a blank space remained in his heart.
When Shi Zhu saw him, a hint of surprise suddenly flashed on his face, and he shouted at Shen Shi, but the voice was vague and weird, and at the same time, blood kept flowing from his mouth. Shen Shi raised his head blankly, his body trembled suddenly, and he found that the stone pig's mouth was already covered with blood, but there was no tongue.
The muscles on Shen Shi's cheeks tensed instantly, and he hugged the stone pig in his arms, and a thousand words came to his heart, and in the end, only a piece of misery remained, but he couldn't say a word.
Shi Zhu seemed to be full of relief after seeing Shen Shi, and the expression on his face suddenly quieted down, he closed his mouth and looked at Shen Shi, his ugly face was in the deepest pain, but after the dying struggle, he showed a somewhat reassuring smile.
He looked at Shen Shi, and there seemed to be an inquiry in his innocent eyes.
Shen Shi only felt that his eyes were blurry for a moment, and tears quietly dripped down and fell on Shi Zhu's face, and even his voice was hoarse as choking, and then he nodded desperately, hugged Shi Zhu tightly, and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine......"
Shi Zhu grinned, as if he was happy, as if he wanted to say something, as if he wanted to tell Shen Shi, as if he was going to be the same as before, his head slowly tilted, and in Shen Shi's desperate gaze, he suddenly fell into his arms and did not move.
Shen Shi's body froze suddenly, as if his whole body was trapped in a cold ice cellar and could no longer move, only his mouth let out a hoarse roar of despair like a beast.
At his feet, the little black pig came over, looked at the stone pig's face, then licked his cheek with his tongue, whispered a few times, and rubbed the stone pig's head with its head, just like when he was in the demon world, it used to wake him up like this.
※※※
A slight ** sounded next to Shen Shi, Shen Shi's body shook, turned his head to look, but found that it was the old white monkey's body that moved. He was startled, put down the body of the stone pig, hugged the old white monkey's shoulder, and shouted in a low and rapid voice: "Old monkey, wake up, wake up, I am a stone!"
The old white monkey's face was like white paper, bloodless, as if the last trace of vitality in this old body had been lost today, and only the last bit of vitality remained. As if he heard Shen Shi's shout, his decayed and lifeless eyes reluctantly raised, looked at Shen Shi, and then whispered:
"Didn't you tell you to leave, why did you come back?"
Shen Shi looked down at his abdomen, a trace of weakness and despair passed through his heart, the wooden stick penetrated the abdominal cavity of the old white monkey, it was already a fatal injury, if it was pulled out at this moment, it would immediately kill the old white monkey.
"It's useless. The old white monkey seemed to see his thoughts, and laughed miserably over there, and then he saw the stone pig lying not far from him, and the little black pig who was standing next to the stone pig and trying to wake up the stone pig and refused to give up.
He fell silent, then turned his head to look at Shen Shi.
Shen Shi hugged his hands, kept trembling, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll save you, I'll save you......"
The old white monkey shook his head slightly, smiled, seemed to feel a little struggling, leaned into Shen Shi's arm, and then said softly: "I'm about to die." ”
Shen Shi suddenly roared angrily: "You won't die!"
The old white monkey looked at him, his old face stained with blood, and a trace of pain swept through him, but as if he still wanted to comfort Shen Shi, he smiled and said, "I'm old, I'm dying anyway, don't be sad." ”
Shen Shi's voice suddenly became low, and he only felt as if something was about to tear open his chest, he hugged the old white monkey tightly, tears dripped down again, and muttered:
"Don't die, don't die, I, I'll take you and the stone pig back to the demon world, I have a way, I'll find a way, I'll take you back......"
The old white monkey stared at the young man, staring at the familiar and friendly face that was now hazy and painful with teary eyes, and raised his hand with great difficulty to touch his face.
"Stone ......"
Shen Shi burst into tears and nodded desperately at the old white monkey.
The sparkle in the eyes of the old white monkey was rapidly dissipating, but he still stared at Shen Shi like this, in the last moments of his life, he was struggling and difficult, and at the same time, with a bit of warmth and expectation, he said softly:
"Good...... Live...... Go down...... Yes. ”
The voice gradually fell low and silent, as if these words had exhausted all his strength, and then the old monkey demon's arm instantly fell weakly and hit the ground beside him.
Shen Shi was stunned, and then his entire body involuntarily began to tremble, and a strong bloody qi surged from all directions, turning into a surging sea of blood, completely engulfing him.
His lips kept trembling, and he looked blankly at the old white monkey and the stone pig who fell in his arms and beside him, looked at their lifeless bodies, and muttered in a low voice:
"You, what are you doing, don't die, don't die, I, I, I ......"
Scene after scene of the past, suddenly came to his mind like this, and the whole world seemed to be far away from him, but at this desperate and cold time, suddenly, a mocking and cold voice came from the other side of the forest:
"Sure enough, you are with these remnants of the demon clan, now see what else do you have to say?"
Shen Shi's body was shocked, and he slowly turned his head to look, only to see Qian Yi, who was covered in blood, sneering and turning out from behind a big tree, his face full of murderous aura, and said fiercely: "Lao Tzu slaughtered the two of them, now it doesn't matter what your identity is, let you go and die with them!"
Suddenly there was a thunderclap in the sky, and it exploded.
The bright canopy of heaven suddenly darkened, like the ubiquitous darkness of this world, dark clouds rolling and gathering from afar, and a few lightning bolts shuttled over the black sky.
The wind rises and the clouds surge.
The darkness seems to be roaring!
The wind was howling, and the whole forest seemed to tremble and dance.
Shen Shi gently put down the corpse of the old white monkey, and took a deep look at the old rickety face, as well as the last expression of comfort in the pain of the stone pig not far away.
Then he stood up, his black robe dancing, and stood in a pool of blood, like darkness rising into the sky, in the endless shadows of this deep and dense forest.
He stood opposite Qian Yi, like a yin spirit full of hatred in the darkness.
Never again, take a step back.
