Chapter 63: It's Me Not Me
Li Qingshi woke up in a nightmare, sweating profusely and turned over and sat up. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info opened his mouth to gasp and looked out the window, and red lightning streaked across the sky, reflecting the blood outside the bamboo building. A few pots of flowers on the windowsill flickered in the electric light, and the shining raindrops on the flowers and leaves could be clearly seen. Li Qingshi was stunned for a moment, and the rumbling thunder rolled from the sky, so that the window lattice buzzed, he was so frightened that he held his head in his hands, shrank into the corner of the wall, and then turned over and jumped out of bed, shouting several times one after another: "Sister...... Sister!...... Brother-in-law?...... Daddy!"
Running from the East House to the West House, from the second floor to the first floor, I didn't find a second person besides myself. Yes, my brother-in-law didn't come back, and my sister went out to look for it, so she was bored and lay on the bed fiddling with the freshly beaten short knife, and accidentally fell asleep. But I don't know how long it has been, and the night should be late, so why is it still alone? What is going on outside, how can there be thunder and lightning?
He slammed the door open, and the sound of the rain carried a clammy and cold breath to his face, mixed with a faint cry of pain, like a woman's scream. He couldn't help but shudder, thinking that he hadn't woken up, he slapped his head twice, and then half-leaned on the door frame to prick up his ears, and immediately, another terrible scream made his body tremble. He realized that something must have happened, what was going on?
He turned around and ran back upstairs quickly, pinned the newly made short knife to his waist, picked up the long knife given by the third grandfather from the wall, and ran downstairs and jumped into the courtyard again. The rain was unexpectedly heavy, and as soon as he ran out of the courtyard, he was drenched, and the Liuli Village flashed under the electric light, and the blood-colored long street was filled with clansmen, motionless in the rain. He only felt a buzz in his head, and the long knife in his hand could no longer hold it, and it fell to the muddy ground with a snap.
It's a hellish sight worse than a nightmare, but this time it will never wake up again. What's going on? How can a good village become like this after a good night's sleep? He didn't understand. In front of the corpses of the clansmen, he called out "sister" in a trembling cry and rushed over, checking them one by one with the help of electric light, constantly calling "sister" and "sister" in his mouth, but he did not see his sister's corpse. But Qingshuang died, Qingmei died, the sixth aunt died, and the third uncle died...... Everybody's dead.
The rumbling thunder continued, and the screams in the distance continued one after another. It was a massacre, a brutal massacre. There is no need to ask if it must have been done by a cultivator, because Sanbo is a cultivator, but he died without any trace of struggle. Where is my sister? Where is my brother-in-law? Where is my fourth grandfather? Where are all the clan elders? Why is no one stopping me?
It must be because it can't be stopped. Li Qingshi knelt in the rain, tears flowed for a long time, and soon he struggled to get up, pulled out the short knife on his waist with one hand, and bit his lips with his teeth to make pieces of blood: "Sister, don't die, don't die, Xiaoshi is here to help you!"
He had just walked a few steps into the depths of the village, when he saw a figure stumbling in front of him, and a bolt of lightning shone on the other party's face, and he hurriedly greeted him and shouted, "Uncle Nine!"
Uncle Nine grabbed his arm and led him to run out of the village, panting as he ran: "Don't send him to death, run away!
Li Qingshi asked loudly: "Who is it? Who killed so many people, and why?"
"I don't know! we can't beat anyone, the second grandfather and the third grandfather are dead, I saw it with my own eyes!"
"The third grandfather is also dead?...... What about the fourth grandfather?"
"I didn't see it!"
"What about my dad and my sister, and what about my brother-in-law?"
"I didn't see it...... Don't ask, run, I'll find them again if I survive!"
"But ......"
"But what can you do, the clan elders are no match?...... Liuli Valley is over, we can live one by one, and we have to leave the bloodline of our Li family!"
The two men ran desperately out of the village and headed north. Li Qingshi glanced back, and the blood snake danced wildly in the sky above the village, like purgatory. It seemed that the raging thunder and lightning loosened the seal in advance, and as they ran, the two of them felt that the heavens and the earth were also shaking, and they fell to the ground every few steps. But they could do nothing but run towards the mouth of the valley, but they kept falling and getting up, and they were covered in mud and water.
I don't know how long I ran, but when I was about to reach the valley, I suddenly heard a scream from the front, and the two of them stopped together. It seems that someone in Taniguchi is blocking the road, just like catching a turtle in an urn, and the other party doesn't want to let one go. The uncle and nephew looked at each other, and their eyes were full of despair. In desperation, the two had to turn eastward, trying to find a remote corner and hide. Running not far away, in front of him was the Suoyuan Flower Forest, a violent thunder and lightning flashed and swirled, and Li Qingshi stepped on the air and lay on the ground. Uncle Nine hurriedly turned around and dragged him up, and as soon as he raised his head, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, condensing into a humanoid silhouette in front of him, and the electric light walked up and down the edge of the empty outline, and the sound of rattling continued. Uncle Nine was stunned for a moment, and then shouted "Run", and the electric human form suddenly flashed, and a young man appeared from it.
......
Lin Du opened his eyes and saw only darkness, the sound of torrential rain hitting the leaves, and thunder and rumbling. He couldn't help blinking, forgetting where he was for a moment. How could there be thunder? Is this still in the Glazed Valley? He rolled over and sat up, his head touching a mass of leaves. It's raining heavily, and if it's a normal leaf or leaf, a puddle of rain will fall when you touch it, but there's not a drop here. Lin Du was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he was under the "mung bean" tree in the Suoyuan Flower Forest, he half-leaned back, stretched out his hand to push away the branches and leaves covered on his head, but he couldn't push it at all. Groping around in the dark, he found that the branches and leaves were tangled in one place, so tightly that it was like weaving a cocoon that trapped him alive in the middle.
This has never happened before. Lin Du frowned, tried to communicate with "Mung Bean", and immediately felt an overwhelming panic and compassion, which made his heart beat violently, and his muddy head suddenly cleared up a lot. Something must have happened! Only when Li Haining was about to eat Lin Dui, did the "mung bean" have such a frantic mood! It now wraps itself in branches and leaves to make it impermeable, and this is obviously a kind of protection.
So what's really going on?
Outside, there was torrential rain and thunder and lightning. Is the seal loose? No, first, it won't be time, and second, it won't make "Mung Bean" panic so much. What could that be? The only thing that can make the thunder and lightning of Liuli Valley work is extremely dangerous, except for the loosening of the seal...... Invasion of foreign enemies!
Lin Duan quickly made the most realistic judgment, although he couldn't guess who the enemy was, but he knew that it must be extremely dangerous when he heard the sound of thunder and lightning outside. He grabbed the branch of the "mung bean" with both hands, shook his back and shouted, "Let me out...... Let me out, I'm going to save people!" "There are so many ordinary people in the village, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the cultivators of the Li clan to take care of them, and the most feared thing is that they have not seen the dangers of the outside world and cannot deal with the enemy's methods. There is also Qingxue outside, she will definitely participate in the battle, she can't be hurt!
But "Mung Bean" responded with a strong refusal, no matter how he shook and shouted, he was firmly trapped in the middle of the branches and leaves. He tried to gather star power to break the cocoon outside, but found that there was not much star power left to use. "Mung Bean" is like learning the Yin Trick of Suo Yuanhua, and depriving most of his strength, in this cramped and narrow space, he can only be at the mercy of "Mung Bean", it refuses to let himself out, he can only stare dryly, struggle in vain.
So he gave up the struggle, curled up and gasped. He knew that "Mung Bean" was a gentle person, and it was impossible to do it for no reason, and it didn't let itself go out, only because it was too dangerous outside, and it had to protect itself even if it went against its will. He could feel the kind dissuasion in its emotions. But this made him even more anxious, and the more dangerous it was outside, the more worried he became. He knew that this danger could scare "Mung Bean" like this, but he was afraid that he would die as soon as he went out, but Qingxue was still outside, Qingshi was still outside, so many Li clan people were outside, what happened to them?
Lin Du suddenly closed his eyes and quickly sent his consciousness into the body of "Mung Bean". Ceres' ability to maintain his talent is still there, although he can't go out, he can observe everything around him through the perception of "mung beans". This ability to perceive substitution is extremely ineffective on ordinary plants and trees, because plants and trees do not have the five senses of hearing and hearing, but "mung bean" is different, it has a more acute perception than ordinary humans, and its leaves blown away by the wind can become the medium of its perception. Lin Dusk used to use its vision to observe the entire valley.
Consciousness was sent, and "Mung Bean" did not refuse, presumably it also knew that if it wanted Lin Dui to stay here with peace of mind, it couldn't let him know nothing. So Lin Du saw the night sky where the blood snake danced wildly, the Suoyuan flower forest that was illuminated by lightning one after another, the torrential rain was like a waterfall, and the flowers and vines were dancing wildly. Most of the branches and leaves of the "mung bean" hang down to form a cocoon, and the remaining branches are tossed and swayed in the rain. A small leaf seemed to be blown off by the wind and rain, but it flew into the distance through the layers of curtains of the rainstorm, extending Lin Dusk's gaze from the center of the forest to the outer edge of the forest.
So he saw the meadow outside the forest, and saw the swaying figures on the meadow. The shining electric light illuminated two familiar faces, and the faces full of muddy water were filled with grief and despair, those were Qingshi and Uncle Jiu! They were on the run, and they were so embarrassed! There was no Qingxue, no Li Haichao, no protection from the clan elders, only the two of them! Lin Dui's heart suddenly cooled in half. But who did they see? Why did their expressions suddenly turn to surprise? There! The figure,...... must be a handsome teenager, how can he look so similar to himself at first glance?
The leaves swirled in the wind and rain, and the shoulders of the young man were pinched between his fingers casually, and the branches of the "mung bean" trembled suddenly. The lightning flashed, illuminating the young man's appearance, his eyebrows and eyes were as delicate as flowers, but there was a heroic flow of endless energy, broken by wind and rain, and only a strand of hair covered the corners of his lips.
Lin Du Huo Ran opened his eyes, and cold sweat rolled down his cheeks: "No! That's not me! It's not me! That's not me!"
