Chapter 21: Nirvana Reborn
The bright moonlight is like water, shining on the western desert and turning yellow. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
In the darkness of the night, a bonfire was rising, dozens of people sat around, on the fire rack, a fat beast was roasting, golden oil stains were constantly dripping on the reddened charcoal fire, the smell of the smell was delicious, a little flipped, the barbecue on the rack immediately sent the most sincere invitation to everyone.
No one can easily resist the temptation of such a delicious meal!
"I can't take it anymore!"
A figure sprang out of the crowd, and he pounced on the barbecue with great agility, but when he was only a few centimeters away from the barbecue, he stopped in vain.
A cold light flashed in front of him, and only two dings were heard, and two short blades were already inserted into the roasted meat.
"Zhang Lao Wu, cut a few taels of meat for me!"
Zhang Laowu's face turned dark, and when he heard this voice, he didn't need to look back, he knew that that person was the leader of the Modao team who had been firmly behind Fei Ge - Wang Ze. Although Wang Ze is also a second-rate martial artist, Zhang Lao Wu does not dare to disobey, the people of the Mo Dao team have high skills, not to mention that they are still a big leader!
It's just a pity that this desert robe, the fat thigh meat is probably unblessed.
Zhang Lao Wu sighed, and then stepped forward and began to cut the meat, there was a burst of boos around, and he didn't feel embarrassed, this world is the weak and the strong.
The roasted meat was cut by a short blade, and the aroma of the meat rolled out! This beast is called the desert robe, and it feeds on snakes, but it can eat a head of more than two meters, which is also one of the few, and one or two hundred catties of fat meat was cut by him, and there is still some leftover in the team of nearly 30 people.
Where there's meat, there's wine!
This group of people began to drink wine and eat meat around the bonfire, and in recent days they have been in the western wilderness, and they have dry food and water every day, and it is a very rare thing to be able to enjoy delicious barbecue.
After drinking too much, some people began to sing, and Hu Ren's song was as desolate as this barren sand, a heavy and depressive tune. In the midst of the singing, Wang Ze walked back from the darkness with a plate, and the three subordinates looked at him, Wang Ze shook his head, and the meat on the plate was not missing, and immediately someone gritted his teeth and said: "In the past few days, Brother Fei has always been absent-minded, and he has not eaten for a few days, and he complains about that Tang Long!"
Another said: "In the first place, I should have killed him!"
Wang Ze glared: "Kill him? Doesn't the oath made by Brother Fei count?", but even so, Wang Ze's heart didn't want to kill Tang Long, and it was not too much to die a thousand times if he destroyed the human heart.
"Tang Long, a nobody, why are we all so concerned about him these days?"
Wang Xue said the question in his heart, since Zhifei was sluggish from this point, their desire to kill Tang Long has become stronger and stronger, but why he is so impressed by this person, no one can really say.
"Because there are too few people worthy of our admiration!"
Suddenly, a figure walked out from behind.
The slender figure and handsome face were reflected in the firelight, this person was this Zhifei, but his eyes no longer had the same look as before, on the contrary, they looked a little gloomy.
It was as if he was talking to himself, recounting the confusion of the past few days..." Tang Long, a man who cannot stand and walk, will inevitably die in the desert without the help of others, he knows this better than any of us!
But—"
This Zhifei voice paused
"However, even if he died, he never begged me for mercy, such hard-hearted people are not uncommon, but after they died, they did not overwhelm me like Tang Long... Why?
"I've been thinking about this for the past few days, and it wasn't until tonight that I roughly understood!"
His voice suddenly raised: "Because although Tang Long is just a cripple, he has great ambitions for the world, and in this cruel world, it seems that he can still retain a pure heart... Compared to his wishes, I was simply a frog at the bottom of a well. ”
This Zhifei hides in the darkness, so that no one can see his wry smile.
In fact, he overthought Tang Long, Tang Long was just a person from another world, what he saw was a more just, enlightened and harmonious society, so he couldn't tolerate the cruelty that he was accustomed to here, but his morality was regarded as a pure heart by this Zhifei, and a crippled person can have such great ambitions, not to mention that he has sound limbs.
Finally, it was only to this day that Zhifei understood why Tang Long's words could break his Dao heart, because he was jealous of him, and he wished that this person could die earlier! He even did not hesitate to use the hand of the desert to trap and kill Tang Long.
This Zhifei appeared like a ghost, and then disappeared without a trace, and he only carried a pot of spirits, as if the spirit of wine could accompany his melancholy wandering in the desert.
····
····
At the same time, on the other side of the desert, there was some movement in the dim night.
Chirp tweet
There was a cry of birds and beasts, and with a hint of throbbing, several creatures flew away from the sky.
Yes!
A creepy howl exploded here!!
In the moonlight, a figure sprang out, and he rolled on the ground in great pain, and the overturned water bag next to his feet made a swishing sound, and it was actually constantly flowing water reflecting the moonlight.
The precious water was absorbed by the sand, but the man had no time to care about it, and at this moment, he was suffering from inhuman torture and bone-eating pain! He frantically smashed his head on the ground, hoping to faint for a moment, but this was an extravagant hope, with the help of the moonlight, he could see the mutation that gradually emanated in his body!
He should have been a dead man!
His rotten, thin, stinking body should have begun to decay, but at this moment, under the skin on his surface, there was a bulging tumor that kept swimming, arms, chest, abdomen, ······ Every time it passes, it brings hundreds of millions of points of suffering, and if the pain can be quantified, I am afraid that it will be difficult to calculate it at this time.
But in the midst of this bone-devouring agony, it was accompanied by the rebirth of his rotten body!
The tumour in that place brings pain, but at the same time it also brings hope for life, it flows through the arm, the thin arm immediately begins to expand, the muscles become full, flows through the chest, the dry chest skeleton immediately rises and falls, and gradually recovers flesh, flows through the abdomen, the stomach and intestines that have not eaten for several days give birth to a hot flow in vain, just like a hungry person in the winter drink a sip of hot soup, warm energy fills the body!
But it was a momentary thing, the tumor stopped in his abdomen, and the heat suddenly heated up sharply, suddenly turning into countless sharp knives, cutting through his body.
The man was foaming at the mouth in pain, and his eyes seemed to burst out of his sockets!
Ahhh
He fell to his knees with clenched fists, his roar changing tones, layers of strange creatures looming beneath his superficial skin.
A feeling of itching gradually replaced the pain and spread from the scalp!
The man's eyes opened, and he actually ripped off a piece of his scalp, which was purely unconscious! The pain was forgotten for a moment, and a picture flashed through his mind—a monster that had lost its face was smiling at him, it was so familiar!
Its mouth was split open to its ears, and its long tongue was terrifying, and it seemed to say...
Come on, I'm waiting for you!
"No!"
The man bit his tongue so hard that he almost broke it, and he knew very well what he was about to become!
By biting his tongue, he regained a trace of consciousness, and with trembling hands, he took out an inconspicuous bottle from his bosom, which contained his last hope!
He opened the bottle and smelled the rich, bitter smell of medicine.
"Hurry up and take the antidote! or you'll become a monster!"
"No, it's a little bit close... It's not close!"
Two voices argued back and forth in his head, and he stared at the jug of bottles, and he fell into the memory!
···
···· A few hours before night falls on the desert!
With the sound of the vulture's excitement to the extreme, death crept upon this body, a life so weak that it had been exposed to the scorching sun for days, so that it was filled with the smell of rancidity!
But at the last moment, the dying man burst out laughing! In the midst of this laughter, he pulled out a water bag full of water!
This man who was about to die of dehydration still had a bag of water in his possession!
At this moment, there was a gambler-like madness in his eyes!
Whether it's life or death, I Tang Long gambled!!
Tang Long!
This person whose appearance can no longer be seen in its original appearance, but whose dry skin is attached to the bones like an extremely air-dried corpse, is none other than Tang Long! That madness and persistence, destruction and desperate courage, who else could it be if it wasn't Tang Long?
For this moment, Tang Long hesitated, and even more planned, until death really came, he made a bet!
This marked water bag, which contained the mite snake, was the last thing in his mind that he had said to revive the fairy... Mites, after practicing and taking medicine, the eater can not eat or drink for several months! Coincidentally, he has been silently keeping this mite snake before, the original intention was to keep a clue, who knows that it has become a life-saving straw at this moment!
Although this straw will still crush itself in the end.
However, Tang Long still couldn't control a bold idea!
······ The greatest value of mite snakes is that they can change the human skeleton and greatly enhance bone density and hardness!!
Tang Long wants to borrow a mite snake to fight poison with poison and treat his paralyzed body!
Nirvana is reborn, or you can become a monster of the walking dead.
He used several days of torment to exchange hesitant chips, and at this moment he pressed them all!
He raised his head and poured the liquid from the bag into his mouth, and the water that kept pouring down flashed a foot-long thing, and the liquid passed down his throat and into his abdomen.
The laughter stopped abruptly, Tang Long's eyes closed, and he fell into a deep sleep, he didn't know if he would wake up again from this sleep, until at night, a trace of hot wind blew, and a pain in his body woke him up!
He knew that he had made the right bet, but if he wanted to really live, he still needed to get through a big difficulty, which was the side effect of this water liquid - death!
···
···
"Take the antidote, maybe you can still live! What are you still thinking?"
"Hurry up and take the antidote, otherwise, you will soon be controlled by it and become a monster!"
"Eat quickly, as long as you live, everything is still possible!"
The consciousness of survival prevailed, and it was not worth the risk for that glimmer of hope.
Eat it?
Tang Long came back to his senses, the mouth of the bottle had been raised to his lips, but from this angle, he saw the atrophied muscles of his legs, and the two thin leg bones were like dead branches that had lost water in the desert.
He was distracted for a moment... Don't
··· Am I going to live as a wreck?
I'd rather take another gamble!
···
Tang Long closed the mouth of the bottle, and in the next second, the itching that spread throughout his body dominated his movements, and he couldn't help tearing the skin of his upper body, grabbing his back to bloody flesh.
Ahhhh
Hiss!
His voice began to change tones, gradually emitting an eerie tone like a snake inhaling.
Sometimes he was confused, sometimes he was awake, and whenever he came back to consciousness, his eyes were always unwavering with unwavering determination, like a reef standing on the shore, preferring to be broken by the waves rather than give in.
Don't be free, I'd rather die!
Right here and now
With a thud, the tumor that had been hovering in his abdomen seemed to have opened up something, and it had actually flowed into his lower limbs! The pain that had covered the itching came again, and the pain of such a thousand cuts was so familiar that he regained a trace of consciousness.
There was a crackling sound in my ears!
Tang Long looked down and saw that the atrophied leg muscles were growing rapidly, becoming full and slender! But if you can cut this muscle and look inside, you will find that it is not the muscle that is expanding, but the bone inside, and his leg bone has become very thick, thick enough to deform the muscle!
A moment later, Tang Long slowly stood up from the ground, and his trembling legs took two steps forward!
But his eyes were still full of disbelief!
I did it?
He tried to run forward, but the action of running in his memory was to leap into the air with one foot!
This jump is five meters!
With a bang, Tang Long fell to the ground, exploding a burst of flying sand, but he didn't feel the slightest pain!
This body is too strong!!
After just the initial attempt, he showed excellent bursts and super resistance to hits, and these two points alone completely exceeded his expectations by a thousand times!
"I made it!"
Tears welled up in Tang Long's eyes, he fell to his knees and roared excitedly to the sky!
Hiss!
But his familiar voice had a strange tone!
When he regained sensation in his legs, many of the structures of his body were changed, and the first change was his voice!
Not good!
Tang Long hurriedly stretched out his tongue and licked himself, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his tongue did not turn into a snake-shaped long tongue, which showed that he had not been controlled by the mite snake!
"The mite snake has two ends, and if it gets into my head, I'll be a monster!"
Tang Long had already thought about this, this was the price that those who took the mite snake had to pay.
But how to deal with it, he also thought about it thousands of times in his mind!
To fight poison with poison, we must also learn to detoxify, otherwise, it will be difficult to escape death.
Tang Long lifted the pot of medicine bottles, which also contained half a pot of rehmannia in it.
Rehmannia was the only thing he could think of, maybe able to restrain mites.
"I once dissected a monster controlled by a mite snake and found that both the monster and the mite snake's corpse had traces of being corroded by rehmannia——
In other words, if you take Rehmannia and the mite snake will die... I'm probably going to die!"
This is the last level, the mite snake does not die, Tang Long still can't escape the fate of being controlled by the mite snake, only by surviving it, is nirvana!
This is a very easy multiple-choice question to do.
Tang Long didn't hesitate at all, he opened the plug of the pot and poured the medicinal powder inside into it in one gulp.
Come on, see who will die!!
The bitter smell of Rehmannia immediately overflowed in his mouth, and Tang Long instinctively repelled the taste, but he suddenly covered his mouth with his hand, and a burst of white mist sizzled out from the gap between his fingers!
Rehmannia was the first to corrode his body!
Tang Long felt that what he had swallowed was not rehmannia, but a sip of burning spirits!
The burning sensation flowed down his mouth through his throat, as if a flame had been carved through his body!
Hiss –
Drops of sweat the size of beans dripped from Tang Long's forehead, and at the same time, he also noticed the abnormality of the mite snake in his body, it was becoming very uneasy, and it was cowering on the sole of his left foot, not daring to move.
Bang!
Before Tang Long could be surprised, flames burned behind his back! The layer of torn bright red flesh was covered in flames, and immediately emitted a scorching smell.
Woo!
Tang Long was so painful that he almost fainted, he had thought that the mite snake would make up for it, but he didn't expect such a situation! But he always maintained a trace of calmness and sanity, at this critical juncture, Tang Long realized that if this continued, I am afraid that the first person who would die would be himself!
Fire suppression!
Fortunately, this is a desert, Tang Long turned his body and tried to extinguish the flames with sand, but this was in vain, this fire was by no means generated out of thin air, its fuel was many tiny mites under Tang Long's sebum, even if Tang Long dived into the water, as long as the mites and snakes did not stop, the flames would not be extinguished.
This flame cannot be extinguished!
Tang Long quickly realized this, the flames only appeared in the places where his body had been torn, that is, his back, thighs and arms, these three places were all large patches of bright red flesh and blood before, and now they were covered by flames, Tang Long could feel it, and under this, there were also countless small lives suffering!
Who said there is only one mite snake!
Thinking of his body being parasitized by countless disgusting and terrifying mite snakes, he only hoped for a moment that the flame would burn more and more.
"Ahh
This is an endurance run, see who can survive better!
Tang Long tore off a piece of cloth and bit it in his mouth to prevent him from biting off his tongue under the great pain, he simply plunged his head into the sand, letting the flames burn up and down his limbs, and in the snorting sound, Tang Long heard the screams of countless creatures dying, as well as the stench of tar being roasted.
He almost crushed his teeth, and the pain of burning his body was ten million times more painful than the pain of broken bones before!
Hiss!
When the flames on his body gradually extinguished, in vain, the tumor on the soles of his feet moved, and he tried to run away.
Can't let it go up!
Tang Long's eyes widened, if he let this mite snake scurry into his chest, he would not be burned to death by the flames, but he would also die from the mouth of the mite snake! He reacted extremely quickly, and the moment he noticed the mite snake's abnormal movement, he suddenly made a move.
A cold light flashed, Tang Long cut his calf muscles with a sharp blade, cutting out a four or five centimeter gap, he gritted his teeth and pulled it, chiseling the wound bigger!
Fresh air immediately poured into it, hissing, only a strange scream was heard, the tumor that kept scurrying on the soles of its feet finally found its direction, driven by instinct, it migrated to a safe place, but it stepped into the trap set by Tang Long.
Hiss!
In the blink of an eye, an ugly head poked out of the wound, burrowing out white muscles, sticky blood, and the fresh air made it comfortable and pleasant!
But the first time Tang Long saw it, he found that this guy had shrunk by at least three times, and the foot-length wound that was deliberately cut was much larger. But before he had time to think about it, he suddenly drank "Die!".
Tang Long's hand rises and falls!
Just as the blade landed on the head of the mite snake, it was about to be cut off.
Bang!!!
A flame ignited silently on the mite snake!
Hiss!
The mite snake grinned in pain, opened its mouth and spit out its long tongue, but before it could spit out its mouthparts again, the fire snake grabbed it and immediately set its whole body on fire!
Ahh
At the same time that the mite snake was burned to ashes, Tang Long's left leg wound was also scorched by the flames, and the pain was like a nerve being torn one by one, magnifying the pain a thousand times!
Tang Long finally couldn't bear it anymore and fainted.
