Volume 1 The Beginning of the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 16
There is only Ziren at the peak, but this high place is not cold. Even if he knelt under this snow-covered sky, regardless of the biting cold wind, he could not reduce the weight of the two lives on Ziren's shoulders.
The moment the hundred swords disappeared, Ziren's heart was inserted with a hundred swords; the touch of Xiao Yu's fingertips imprinted in Ziren's mind, asking him again and again why he let her fall; the cold burial crushed his last hope, and his heart echoed with his helpless cry: "What sword Mingfeng! What heavenly way......! It's all my fault!
Ziren looked at the ground blankly, his face expressionless, but tears of remorse poured out like a spring, one drop after another, gathered in the groove grasped by his five fingers.
No one counted death in this trip, everyone left a way back for themselves, and everyone hoped that their luck would be favored by fate, but ...... This is just wishful thinking on my part...... Some things do come so suddenly and overwhelmingly that they are dubbed providence, but in fact, they are nothing more than an inevitability hanging over the line, and there is no attempt without bets, but the trade-offs and choices are in the hands of the people themselves. But by the time Ziren realized this, someone had already lost all their bets......
Finally, Ziren's expression changed: his face was lowered, the long hair that flowed in front of him covered his angry eyes, and the heavy breathing was mixed with intermittent choking, and suddenly his hands were clenched, and his heart-rending roar actually shocked the raging cold wind: "Ah!"
"Oh my God, why did you make Zhou Ziren so useless! Why didn't you let Ziren's hand grow a little longer! Why did you let the chain fall so fast!"
Ziren didn't stop: "It's me who is the most useless! I'm the one who can't help the most! Why didn't I fall!"
"Do you want to die like that?" The flat tone did not mean to take Ziren's life.
Ziren was not interested in the source of the sound, but said coldly, "You guys...... Aren't they immortals, and do you dare to walk on a road paved with blood?"
This time it was a female voice who responded to him: "There is only this white snow on Jianming Peak, but there is no bloodstain as Shaoxia said." ”
Ziren rose angrily, his fists were ready to fight quickly at the moment he turned around, and the salty bitterness of tears rushed to his heart with the opening of his mouth: "Are you blind?! Two people just fell! Two lives......! I, Zhou Ziren, am incapable! But you! Why don't you save them!"
But there was really only snow in front of Ziren's eyes, and someone was obviously talking just now? Ziren frowned, did God really hear his voice, or was he crazy...... Ziren looked around again, there was still no one, the anger that had just been ignited was blown out, and remorse occupied his heart again. He swayed to the place where Xiao Yu fell, his fingers gently twisting a little dust, and the smile on his face made people shudder. The madness of barking has calmed down, and now there is only one sentence left: "Xiao Yu, Su Yu, I'm here!"
Just as he was about to jump, the shadow above his head caught his attention, again?!
"Ouch!" Azusa was crushed by the sudden weight. It was quite big, but the warm feeling was incompatible with the frost of this cold peak. Ziren exclaimed: In addition to the collision of steel, there is also a faint human voice?!
"Miss Xiao, are you okay!" It's Su Yu! There will be no mistake! This gentle voice will never be forgotten by Ziren for the rest of his life!
"I'm fine, what about you, Master Su?"
"I'm nothing. Su Yu was getting ready, but he didn't expect to press Ziren's hair with one hand.
The pain in his heart burst out with the joy of seeing the two of them come back from the dead, and Ziren cried out in pain: "Ah! I'm in trouble! I'm in trouble! Brother Su let go!"
Su Yu looked down and was surprised to find that he and Xiao Yu were sitting on Ziren, so he immediately stood up. Ziren struggled to get up, and the dirt below him still recorded Ziren's surprised expression.
But none of this mattered, Ziren pounced on Su Yu and Xiao Yu and hugged them tightly, tears did not hold back, and a torrent flowed down like an explosion. Seeing such an excited Ziren, Su Yu and Xiao Yu were a little overwhelmed, so they had to touch the trembling Ziren with their hands.
But just as they were about to comfort Ziren, Ziren seemed to have put on a spring, suddenly bounced away, quickly wiped his face with his sleeve, and then sniffed hard a few times, trying to pretend that nothing had happened just now, but the remaining tears on his face and the red eyes still revealed the truth clearly.
"I said it, we only have snow here~" Behind the three of them, the girl who called for cranes in the mountain suddenly appeared.
"Thank you to the immortals for saving me!" Su Yu immediately thanked him.
But the girl in white just smiled, and then said, "No, it's not me who saved you!"
The three of them looked at each other, so who saved themselves?
The young man who handed out the bamboo sticks to the three also appeared, saying, "Although this place seems to be dangerous, it is actually just a mirror image. ”
"What?!mirror?!" exclaimed the trio!
The girl took over: "This is a heavenly mirror designed to test the courage of the climber!"
"The Mirror of Heaven?!" the three of them were still puzzled, so they asked, "Then what we see is fake?"
"Not exactly. The boy pointed to the bottom of the mountain, "The part from where we stood to the bottom of the mountain near the current is real, but the water and the rocks are illusions. ”
Xiao Yu asked: "But what you said just now is a mirror, not an illusion......
"Haha, yes, this mountain stream is a mirror image of the clouds in the sky!" the boy laughed.
But the three of them looked at the sky, although there were many dense clouds, but each one was floating leisurely, and everyone might as well look at whom, compared with the flowing mountain stream, it was a world of difference, how could it be a mirror image!
"There is an undercurrent in the sea, let alone the sky?" An old man's voice came from the front, but not only did the voice not have the vicissitudes of the world, but there was a kind of youthful jubilation!
I saw an old man walking over slowly, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, which made people feel that they could not relax their vigilance; the turnip-shaped beard stopped above the feet; the cheeks were as ruddy as a child, and even the thick beard could not cover them; the old man was not tall, but his chubby body was even richer, which made people feel more cordial.
When the two young men saw the old man coming, they hurriedly walked over and helped him. Ziren looked at the old man's slightly bloated figure, coupled with the small steps of the lady, and almost didn't laugh, but if it was really an immortal, wouldn't he be disrespectful! Ziren had no choice but to stop the laughter in his throat, but his whole body still trembled slightly, and gas leaked out from his mouth from time to time.
The old man finally moved in front of the three of them, and said with a smile: "Silence is not quiet, move and hide, and the end is not the end, the first is attached to it." This is the wonder of the heavenly mirror~" The old man deliberately lengthened his voice.
Ziren suddenly understood something, and hurriedly continued: "So that's why Su Yu will fall from the sky?!"
The old man nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Haha, the children can be taught, the children can be taught!"
The old man flicked his sleeves, and a long scroll floated out, unfolding it unhurriedly towards the three of them, only to hear him say: "Everyone, Jian Mingfeng has been waiting for a long time!"
