Qingyun Mountain, Big Bamboo Peak.

In the dead of night, only the sound of bamboo waves coming with the wind in the distance gently echoed in the night sky, the lights had long been extinguished, and the disciples of Da Zhu Peak were also resting in peace, only behind the Shoujing Hall, there was a lone lamp, flickering in the darkness.

The night breeze was light, and there was a hint of coolness, blowing in through the half-open window, making a slight "whining" sound, and also blowing the lamp on the table in the middle of the room a little shaky, and became uncertain.

A white hand gently reached over, blocking the wind, and the firelight quickly stabilized and began to shine again. Su Ru sat at the table a little lazily, it was late at night, but she didn't feel sleepy.

The wind outside the house still kept blowing, opening the doors and windows, and making a soft sound from time to time. Su Ru stood up and slowly walked to the window, but did not close the window immediately, but looked out of the window.

The sky is like ink, and it is the darkest time.

She listened intently, but in the wind in the middle of the night, there was no sound she wanted to hear.

Su Ru had a faint wry smile on her face, quietly closed the window, turned around and sat back at the table, she and Tian Buyi were not people who valued luxury, and there were not many things in this bedroom. At this moment, on the table, in addition to a cloth bag, there is only a small round mirror.

She took the original mirror, and in the round mirror appeared a dignified and beautiful woman, with hair like clouds, skin like a girl, and no wrinkles in sight. She and Tian Buyi are husband and wife, and they have practiced for hundreds of years before they have this Taoism, and their face is permanent.

After looking at it for a long time, Su Ru sighed softly, put the small round mirror aside, took the cloth bag on the other end, and opened her.

Inside, there were some of the most ordinary things, some needles and threads, a piece of cloth, and scissors, and powder...... In the world, ordinary women generally have these things, so that they can sew and make clothes for their husbands and children. Su Ru gently took the fabric, threaded the needle, and sewed it carefully by the light of the lamp.

It's just that she sewed and sewed, and under the light of the candlelight, her eyes became a little confused, as if she was a little absent-minded, she didn't know what she was thinking, and the speed of sewing was much slower. At this time, suddenly the wind outside the house seemed to be stronger, and the sound of "woo" passed, but the window that had just been closed was reshot, and it was blown open again.

A gust of cold wind suddenly rushed in, and the candlelight on the table was blown out by the strong wind.

"Ahh

With a soft snort, Su Ru frowned in the dark, and a tingling pain came from the tips of her fingers. With her Taoist practice, she was actually hurt by a small sewing needle, and even she felt a little funny. It's just that somehow, at this moment, the room is dark, and as soon as this bleak night wind blows, Su Ru's mood is a little sad, as if a big stone is blocked in her heart.

She sighed, put down her clothes, and walked to the window. The scene outside the window is still the same, but her husband, who has been with her countless times in the past, has been away for a long time.

After dawn, maybe we should send Daren and a few of them down the mountain to look for it, it's not a way to wait like this.

Su Ru thought so in her heart, and the appearance of Tian Buyi in front of her was worried.

The night is deep!

She stared at the night sky for a long time, her lips quivering slightly, and she didn't know what to say. After a long time, she silently bowed her head, sighed faintly, and closed the window again.

Outside, the wind seemed to be a little stronger.

Huqi Mountain, Ghost King Sect.

In the same late night, there are also people who have no sleep, but the mood may be different.

Hidden in the deepest part of the mountain, above the pool of blood, the Oni King and Mr. Oni stand side by side. Mr. Ghost is still wrapped in black clothes, and his expression is not clear, but there is excitement and joy on the face of the Ghost King.

He didn't look tired from staying up late. In fact, with the cultivation path of the ghost king, even if he doesn't sleep for a few days, there will be no big problem, and at this moment, his face is not tired, his hair is faintly red, and he is full of energy, and he is staring at the blood pool under his feet with all his attention.

The pool of blood soaked in countless blood, compared with the past, has undergone obvious changes at this moment, the four spirit beasts are still imprisoned in the blood water, even if it is the gluttony who struggled hard before, it looks like it has been drained of strength at this moment, and it is crawling in the blood water without jīng, and it has not moved for a long time.

And the water of the blood pool, which has always been calm, is no longer calm at this moment, and above the huge water surface, bubbles continue to emerge from the depths of the blood water, and at the same time, the sound of bursting is constantly heard, and this speed is no less than several times faster than the original, and the number of bubbles is also much more. The entire blood pool looked as if it was boiling, and an invisible force was gradually waking up from the depths of the blood pool. And in this space, the bloody aura that used to exist was more than ten times stronger than before.

In mid-air, the hub of the four spirit blood arrays, Fulong Ding, has also undergone some changes from the past, the original clumsy and heavy body seems to have absorbed a lot of spiritual energy demon power from the blood pool below and the four spirit beasts, and gradually revealed a trace of red light, and the big ding, which originally seemed to be made of bronze, also showed a transparent and slightly yellowish amber face at this moment, which looked faintly solemn.

On top of the body, those mysterious inscriptions have lit up one by one, as if they have all regained life, flashing with a strange light. And on the pattern in the center, the head of the hideous demon god in the original flickering pattern of the four spirit beasts was still as red as blood, greedily absorbing the spiritual power that Fu Longding was constantly absorbing from below.

And the space around Fu Long Ding, within this sealed mountain, turned out to be a vortex air flow like a mist out of thin air, faintly carrying the huge force of wind and thunder, constantly wandering around this Ding body. Even the Ghost King and Mr. Ghost standing in the distance could still clearly feel that this Fulong Ding itself contained terrifying and terrifying mana, and this strange mana was still constantly being added and strengthened.

Like the Ghost King, Mr. Ghost also looked at Fu Longding, but his gaze was cold and sharp, and compared with the Ghost King, it was less fanatical and more calm.

Mr. Ghost stared at Fulong Ding for a long time, and slowly spoke: "There is no accident in the next qiē, it is exactly the same as the inscription on Fu Long Dingding's body, if it goes on like this, as long as the period of seven seven and forty-nine is complete, the Four Spirits Blood Array, this world-famous array, will definitely succeed!"

The ghost king took a deep breath, his face was full of red light, and his eyes revealed a rare fanatical light, and when he stepped forward, he couldn't help but let out a long howl, and said, "Okay, good, good, the old man can't wait!"

Mr. Ghost glanced at him and said, "Sect Master is a little restless, come and say Fang Chang." ”

The ghost king looked up to the sky and laughed, Huo Di turned around and walked in front of Mr. Ghost, but he reached out and slapped Mr. Ghost on the shoulder, Mr. Ghost seemed to be startled, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes, but finally he didn't move and stood in place. After a while, the ghost king's palm slapped on his shoulder, but it was nothing unusual, just laughed and said, "Good, good, good!"

He laughed, very happy, and then seemed to remember something, and his smile narrowed a little, and he said to Mr. Ghost: "Thank you." ”

Mr. Ghost bowed his head slightly, and said: "The success of this Amazing Array is due to the Sect Master's Hongfu Qitian, and if it weren't for this Fulong Ding artifact, there would be nothing to be done about it." ”

The ghost king shook his head with a smile and said: "Fulong Ding is the treasure of my ghost king sect, but for many years, no one can understand the inscription on the body of the tripod, and only you have helped the old man in the end.

Mr. Ghost was silent for a moment and said, "The sect master has won the prize. ”

The ghost king smiled, turned around again, and once again fell on the void standing, radiant, and powerful Fu Longding, and there was a burst of excitement and ecstasy in his eyes, and he couldn't help but laugh again.

Mr. Ghost stood quietly behind the Ghost King, watching the Ghost King look more and more arrogant, and didn't say a word. At this moment, if you casually come in here and know the ghost king, I am afraid that you will be surprised, the ghost king has always been eloquent and introverted and deep, and he has never had such a flamboyant and arrogant look, but this time in the eyes of Mr. Ghost, I don't see Mr. Ghost having the slightest surprise.

I don't know if Mr. Ghost has seen a lot when he is alone with the Ghost King, or if he is so scheming that others can't see it at all.

All in all, on top of the huge pool of blood in the belly of this hidden mountain, in the thick bloody aura, the ghost king was smug about the future, and the smug laughter echoed, gradually enveloping the entire huge cave. And behind him, a quiet yīn shadow, standing silently.

At the foot of Qingyun Mountain.

The strange black clouds above the sky have gradually dissipated at some point, but the clouds are still very thick, and from the dark sky, the heavy rain is still falling, washing away this seemingly lonely world.

Above the wilderness, the wind and rain are fierce, and the chill is biting. The place that was once an abandoned Yizhuang not long ago has become completely in ruins after a thrilling fierce fight, and even the ground under his feet has been turned over because of the destruction of the huge ** force, and after being washed away by the wind and rain, it has become a dirty mud.

The sky was dark, and there was no light. In the wilderness, in the wind and rain, there was only a faint ray of blue light, flickering slightly.

Lu Xueqi, who has always loved cleanliness, has been stained with mud in white, but she doesn't seem to care at all. Not far in front of her, Tian Buyi's body lay quietly, and he closed his eyes, as calm as if he was asleep. The wind and rain hit him in the face, and there was a whimper in the wind, as if he was crying.

Ghost Li still hasn't woken up, through the faint light of Tianya's pale blue sè, you can see that his face is as white as a dead man, and his expression is full of pain, if it weren't for the slight undulating breathing in his chest, it almost makes people feel delusional. At this moment, his body was held in Lu Xueqi's arms, and Tianya quietly emitted light, supporting a small gap in the small place around Lu Xueqi and Ghost Li, and the invisible power blocked the raindrops.

And not far in front of them, the monkey Ash also lost its usual activity, and sat quietly on the ground, the rain falling from the sky wet its body hair, and from time to time water droplets flowed over its face and body, dripping to the ground. A cold wind blew, and Xiao Gray's three eyes blinked, as if he felt a little cold, and quietly moved closer to Ghost Li's body.

Lu Xueqi silently raised her head, glanced at Xiao Ash, and then stretched out her hand and gently carried Xiao Ash into Tianya's aura, letting it lie on Ghost Li's body. Xiao Ash looked at Lu Xueqi, and let out a soft "squeak" cry from his mouth, and then his head hung down slightly, leaning on Ghost Li's chest. Its head turned to the side, its eyes fixed on the quiet body not far ahead, Tian Buyi.

Like a dream?

It seemed to be a long and long dream, but there was no joy in it, because at the end, I found that it was a nightmare.

Ghost's body moved, and the sad look on his pale face seemed to be a little deeper. A moment later, with a groan of pain, he slowly woke up.

There was light in front of me, and the light blue sè brilliance gently floated around the body.

There are sounds all around, it is the sound of wind and rain, the wind and rain, and the wind and rain.

Xiao Ash, who was leaning on Ghost Li's chest, suddenly straightened up and looked at Ghost Li.

Once again, the cold wind blew.

Ghost Li trembled slightly, and then he saw Lu Xueqi's gaze, a face as pale as him, the only person who accompanied him in this stormy night.

The corners of the ghostly mouth trembled slightly.

The pain in his chest had been reduced a lot, and he glanced at his chest, only to see that there were seven or eight pieces of white cloth belts of different sizes wrapped around his chest, which looked like they were all temporarily torn from his clothes, and at this moment his consciousness gradually became sober, and he soon noticed that the broken bones in his chest wound had been connected one by one. It's just that the power of Tian Buyi's palm is really extraordinary, his whole body qi and veins were shocked, although Lu Xueqi rescued him afterwards, but he was afraid that he would have to recuperate for a long time before he could recover.

As soon as he thought of this, he subconsciously turned his eyes and soon saw the teacher who raised him. Ghost Li didn't speak, he didn't seem to even have the strength to speak, in the wind and rain, Tian Buyi's face was splashed with water droplets, lying silently in the dirty mud.

Who knows what will happen when he dies?

There was a low hoarse cry in his throat, and his ghostly body rolled down from Lu Xueqi's arms, fell into the mud, and then struggled to crawl towards Tian Buyi's body. Lu Xueqi was taken aback, and instinctively pulled him forward. But when her hand touched Ghost Li's body, she heard Ghost Li say in a low voice:

"Don't pull me. ”

Lu Xueqi stood stunned and slowly withdrew her outstretched hand. Her eyes looked at Ghost Li, followed him all the time, watched Ghost Li leave Tianya's aura, and crawled towards Tian Buyi's body step by step. The wind and rain came mercilessly, and soon wet his body, and along the way, the mud splashed all over his body.

The monkey Xiao Ash followed Ghost Li's side, looking at the appearance of the master, he seemed to be a little anxious, jumped to Ghost Li's side from time to time, stretched out his hands and wanted to pull him, but Ghost Li was too big compared to Xiao Ash, and Xiao Ash couldn't do it for a while, so he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and "squeak" a few times.

Finally, Ghost Li crawled to Tian Buyi's side, and the tentacles were already cold. The ghost's teeth clenched, and his body trembled slightly. His gaze carefully looked at Tian Buyi in front of him, like a wanderer who had returned after many years, but after all, only despair remained.

From his face, droplets of water dripped and fell on Tian Buyi's already stiffened face.

The wind and rain are getting stronger.

His gaze slowly fell on Tian Buyi's chest, although it was the clothes that had been tidied up, the huge and terrible wound was still shocking. Ghost Li seemed to have been stabbed all over, and his body froze.

Then, he slowly turned around and looked back.

Behind him was Lu Xueqi's lonely and sad figure. In the wind and rain, she silently met the gaze of the ghost, her face was bloodless, her hands shrunk in her sleeves, clenched into fists, and her nails were sunk deep into her skin.

At that moment, I don't know what kind of sadness it was?

The expression on Ghost Li's face gradually became dazed, and even the initial pain and sadness gradually disappeared, only blank. Just turned his head in a daze, and looked at Tian Buyi again, the wind and rain were blowing, and Tian Buyi's face, at some point, was splashed with a few bits of mud on the ground.

Ghost Li slowly stretched out his hand and wiped the rain off Tian Buyi's face. When he touched the cold skin on Tian Buyi's face, his hand instinctively shrank back as if it had been burned by fire, and then stretched out again, carefully and carefully wiping away the mud and rain from Tian Buyi's face.

Then, he stood up, crawled close to the body of his teacher, and used his chest to shield Tian from the wind and rain, and no longer let this miserable wind and rain touch his body.

Lu Xueqi silently watched what he did, and did not stop it, and on her beautiful face, only desolation remained.

"When I was a teenager, my family was ruined and ......people died," the ghostly voice suddenly came from the wind and rain, and he said it very slowly, like every word, which rolled in his heart countless times before it was slowly confided.

Lu Xueqi approached him quietly, but the ghostly body remained unmoved, still sheltering Tian Bu from the wind and rain.

"It was Master who took me back to Dazhufeng and taught me to raise me, and I will never be able to repay his kindness for the rest of my life. ”

The ghostly body shook a little, I don't know if it was because of the fatigue after the injury, and I couldn't support it. Lu Xueqi's face changed, and she reached out to help him, but her hand only touched Ghost Li's body, but Ghost Li moved away slightly to the side and avoided her.

Lu Xueqi's hand froze in mid-air.

The ghost picked up Tian Buyi's body with great difficulty, and held his head and face deeply in his arms, and at the same time, a deep pain appeared on his face, and he just whispered to himself.

Lu Xueqi stood beside him, in the wind and rain, he still heard his words clearly, and Ghost Li just repeated one sentence over and over again:

"I can't pay it back for the rest of my life...... For a lifetime, I can't pay it back......"

Lu Xueqi's lips trembled slightly, her gaze swept over Tian Buyi's face, who knows, on the same night, this person also smiled and talked to her, and made a promise to her, so that she saw a glimmer of hope in the despair of the past.

That sword, that wound......

There is more than one person who is hurt!

She smiled sadly and turned away, but her body shook a few times involuntarily, her brows furrowed, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. Bit by bit, it fell on her chest and clothes, and also fell on the earth, but the wind and rain were merciless, and it didn't take long for the rain to erode away.

She looked up at the sky, and the cold raindrops fell on her face, and the sky was like ink, pitch black.

Isn't it almost dawn?

But why, in this world, until this time, except for this lonely ups and downs, the rest is only pitch black?

There were tears in the corners of Lu Xueqi's eyes, and in the wind and rain, they slipped quietly.
