Chapter 301: A Difficult Road Ahead
Although Lu Youling is not very old, because he grew up in Blackstone Village, he has seen too many scenes of the demon clan eating people. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoSome old people are not much weaker than young adults, but because their cultivation is hopeless, they can only be reduced to demon rations. In Lu Youling's view, such a thing itself is not in line with common sense, why should the human race be preyed upon by the demon race? But this resentment was then transformed into helplessness and disappointment: the law of the jungle is the unchanging criterion between heaven and earth, and the sorrow of the human race lies in its own weakness.
Legend has it that there will be a "man of white paper" from the void, who has nothing to do with this world and is independent of the inherent laws. Such people are like pure blank paper, and legend has the power to change the world. As for where this power came from and how it was implemented, it has not been handed down. And ** Lei is old, but he doesn't know anything about this world, it is a blank page from the other world! At least, Lu Youling thinks so.
The sorrow of the human race is naturally experienced most deeply only by the human race. Lu Youling may be physically immature, but his psychology has matured due to pain, no matter how careful his father is, Lu Youling has long been determined to change the existing situation in this world, and looks forward to the day when the human race will become the head of the three races. Such a heavy responsibility or ambition came out of the mouth of a little girl, but Lei didn't feel any self-indulgence and ridiculousness. On the contrary, **Lei was shaken by Lu Youling's determination: Isn't this also a struggle against fate?
What makes ** Lei a little strange is the so-called "Holy Spirit" told by Lu Youling. The Holy Spirit is the only true god in this heaven and earth, but no one in the human race or the demon race has ever seen the appearance of the Holy Spirit. Even, this kind of god has never manifested, but only exists in the hearts of living beings. But it is this seemingly ethereal god that inspires and guides the behavior of both humans and demons: fighting against demons, fighting against evil, and in order to survive!
However, the abode of the Holy Spirit is said to be in the midst of the holy mountain that holds up to the sky. Therefore, the human and demon races protect the holy mountain, not only for their own safety, but also to protect the gods who live in the holy mountain!
After listening to Lu Youling's narration, Lei faintly felt something. Whether it is the legendary blank paper person or not, just to live, in order to resurrect important people, he must personally go to the holy mountain to find the Holy Spirit who has never "appeared". Perhaps, at that time, not only will I find a glimmer of life, but I will also have a greater harvest.
"Can you take me to the Holy Mountain?" Although Lu Youling may not even have the ability to go out to protect herself, at this moment, except for her, ** Lei has no one to ask for help.
"Good. The girl replied cleanly, without a hint of hesitation. But after getting Lu Youling's affirmative answer, ** Lei suddenly fell silent: one is a weak old man in the armor (although he is not in his heart), and the other is a young girl who is only in her prime, such a combination is really fragile to the extreme. In this world full of demons and demons, wanting to go to the Holy Mountain is undoubtedly a fool's dream!
Lu Youling also realized this problem, and then the two fell silent together. After a while, Lu Youling suddenly stood up and said to ** Lei: "I'll go out for a while, you wait for me here, remember not to leave the house!" After speaking, the girl quickly rushed out of the house.
About half an hour later, Lu Youling returned to the stone house with a panicked face. Seeing ** Lei, Lu Youling hurriedly said: "I already have a way to ensure that we go to the holy mountain safely, let's go now!"
Lu Youling was carrying a cloth bag in his hand, his face full of eagerness. Lei didn't ask her why she was so popular, just nodded and agreed. After resting for half a day and filling his stomach again, **Lei's physical strength has been restored to a great extent. Although it is not as good as young adults, it is not a big problem to run normally. So, under the guidance of Lu Youling, the two of them went out of the house together.
The light suddenly became stronger, and after a while, what caught ** Lei's eyes was a quaint village. The village is very large, and at first glance there are relatively simple stone houses, but there are no people in them. The sky in the village was no longer gray, but something like the sun was shining.
Finally, after adapting to the difference in light, Lei saw the so-called sun in the sky. It turned out that the entire sky here was shrouded in a huge rune, and the village was completely enclosed, with no mountains and no Gobi. A square mark on the rune is emitting a strong light and has become a substitute for the sun, this pale yellow light shines on the body and feels warm, and it seems that the effect is the same as the real sun.
Lei and Lu Youling didn't have time to enjoy such warmth, and the two walked quickly along a path towards the edge of the village. However, when the two of them were still some distance away from the edge of the village, a shout came from behind them: "You two stand for me!"
Lu Youling didn't look back, but suddenly grabbed ** Lei's hand and ran forward. In the process of running, Lu Youling took out a palm-sized iron plaque from the cloth bag, and said softly at the moment he arrived at the place where the village met the rune: "Yuan Ling is extreme, the protector is open!" The next moment, Lu Youling and ** Lei Qi turned into a rainbow light and passed through the rune barrier.
The sky was dark again, and the whole world was in a state of near-chaos. The quiet and peaceful village is gone, replaced by a crude black cobblestone house. At the same time as the rune was broken, a green mang fell from ** Lei's head to the soles of his feet, and then completely integrated into his body.
Lu Youling stood quietly in place, but suddenly burst into tears, and then knelt down and kowtowed respectfully three times in the direction of the stone house group. After a long while, Lu Youling got up and said to ** Lei: "I stole my father's Tongjing card and Linglong ring, and they can't get out." Although he was talking to ** Lei, he seemed to be talking to himself, and his somewhat immature face was full of sadness. Then the girl forced herself to restrain herself and said sadly: "The Linglong Ring will hide our breath, you must not stay too far away from me." Let's go. ”
Lei nodded, and didn't say much, just followed closely behind Lu Youling. Although ** Lei admired the girl in front of him before, he didn't want her determination to be so big, so big that it almost cost human lives: if Lu Youling couldn't return to Heishi Village in time with the Tongjing card, when the stored food was exhausted, Lu Jianzhang and the rest of the villagers of Heishi Village would probably die. And the girl almost unconditionally believes in ** Lei and believes that he will definitely be able to change the world.
This is undoubtedly Lu Youling's desperate bet. It's just that ** Lei himself is powerless, with an old body and no clear goal, he can only take one step at a time.
Three days have passed, and ** Lei and Lu Youling have only walked more than 100 miles, and this is still when the two of them do not need to guard against the demon clan for the time being. This speed is obviously too slow, and I don't know what year or month it will be until we reach the Holy Mountain. But this is a helpless thing: on the one hand, ** Lei is not in good health, and on the other hand, Lu Youling has never gone out, and when he only knows the general direction of the holy mountain, he can only grope forward.
Fortunately, the path card in Lu Youling's hand is not only a pass to enter and exit the talisman array, but also a rare magic weapon with vitality in this world. The Path card can sense other creatures or objects that are also animate, so that the land spirit can use it to warn or find food. In this way, no matter how barren this world is, Lu Youling can always find edible plant roots hidden under the wasteland and Gobi.
Finally half a month later, ** Lei and Lu Youling came to the outside of a valley. The valley is on the path that the two must pass, either bypassing or going straight through. But such a valley seems to suddenly appear in the middle of the mountains, and it does not fit in with the lifeless scenery around it: from the mouth of the valley all the way to the depths of the valley, it is covered with green grass, and the flowers on the meadow are also wonderful, full of life. Not only that, but the valley is also filled with a misty atmosphere, revealing mystery and mystery everywhere.
Xiao and Lu were almost instantly attracted by the fantastic scene of the valley, but compared to Lu Youling's excitement, ** Lei was more rational. In his opinion, such a fantasy valley must be at two extremes: either an extremely rare blessed land treasure, or a life-threatening Shura prison. And the bloody brutality of this world far exceeds the others, only in the past half a month, ** Lei has seen a lot of demon cannibalism, and even the scene of demon cannibalism, so the truth of this valley should be more biased towards the latter!
However, just when ** Lei was thinking about whether to enter the valley, Lu Youling had already run over. As a last resort, Lei can only keep up quickly. As soon as he entered the valley, ** Lei felt that the whole person immediately sank into an extremely refreshing environment, every pore of his body was so unhappy, and even the fatigue and pain of his body in the past half a month were swept away.
It's just that although this feeling is good, it gives birth to the idea of "eternal life and eternity only stay here". Even as time progressed, this idea evolved into "If you want to stay here, you can only give up your body." With the strength of his will, he will not be confused by these illusions, but this all reveals the danger of the valley: ordinary people will never be able to withstand this temptation from the depths of their hearts. Although Lu Youling is bent on changing the status quo of the human race, she is a little girl who has not been deeply involved in the world after all, how strong will her will be?
**Lei is full of worries about Lu Youling's current situation, but in such a short period of time**Lei has lost his trace of the other party. Not only that, but the various colors and glow in the valley are even more intertwined: you can only see the way to the depths of the valley, but the back road when you come is as if it never existed!
**Lei is awe-inspiring in his heart, if there is really an external force to promote all this, he will be unable to protect himself. But even so, ** Lei will never ignore Lu Youling. Don't think about long-term things for the time being, at least have a clear conscience in the present!
