Chapter 254: Calling
At the foot of Qingyun Mountain, the ruins of Caomiao Village. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The sun rises and sets, the day and night change, but Lu Xueqi doesn't remember how many days she has been here.The lovesickness and bitter affection for more than ten years seem to be completely out of control all of a sudden, she can't and doesn't want to endure it anymore, every day and every night, she has to accompany that man, accompany him, if there is a future, then forever.
Ghostly, no, it should be said that it is Zhang Xiaofan, at least in Lu Xueqi's eyes, he has never changed, and now the haggard and sad man is held in her arms, still motionless and confused.
These days, Lu Xueqi has also thought of various ways to wake up Zhang Xiaofan from the dream of the demons, but all of them failed, and in the end, Lu Xueqi also gave up her efforts temporarily, perhaps, only she can really understand the hurt in Zhang Xiaofan's heart at this moment!
So she no longer tried to wake him up, just quietly accompanied him, hugged him, and the two of them sat quietly in the ruins of Caomiao Village, watching the sunrise in the early morning, watching the sunset, watching the bright moon rise into the sky, watching the stars dotted.
I don't know why, even with a hint of guilt and guilt, but Lu Xueqi really felt a kind of happiness from the bottom of her heart.
The breeze brings a burst of coolness.
It's another night.
The two of them leaned against the broken wall and sat quietly, trembling twice in the weeds next to them, as if there was something foreign, but Lu Xueqi didn't take a second look.
Sure enough, a moment later, Xiao Ash's figure came out of the grass, jumped a few times and jumped on the broken wall where Lu Xueqi and Zhang Xiaofan were leaning, and sat down.
The cloth belts that Xiaobai had wrapped him in the past were gone, and most of the exposed injuries were healed, and it seemed that he had been torn off by Xiao Ash himself, but at this moment, he saw him sitting on the broken wall with his hands spread, and there were a lot of wild fruits, which were scattered casually, and most of them fell down a lot, and most of them fell on Lu Xueqi and Zhang Xiaofan.
Zhang Xiaofan didn't react, and Lu Xueqi's head was also smashed a few, although it was not painful, it was not very elegant, which was very incompatible with her usual cold temperament.
Lu Xueqi looked at the wild fruits that fell to the ground, looked up at the monkey on the broken wall, Xiao Ash suddenly jumped up, took a few steps back, his eyes were full of vigilance, but he still grabbed several wild fruits in his hands and chewed them in his mouth.
I don't know if it's because Xiao Ash and Lu Xueqi don't get along, anyway, it seems that in Xiao Ash's eyes, Zhang Xiao is hugged by this woman in white and seems to be quite unpleasant to his eyes, but Lu Xueqi has also seen it in his own way, although he has made provocative actions, he is still quite a little jealous.
When Xiao Gray's three eyes were staring at Lu Xueqi, the woman in white who had never been close to the fireworks in the world suddenly smiled at him, this smile was like a spring blossom, a warm spring breeze, where was there still the slightest hint of her cold appearance in the past.
Lu Xueqi didn't get angry, but didn't seem to be in a bad mood, smiled at Xiao Ash, picked up a wild fruit from the ground, and said softly: [Did you pick it back, thank you!]
Xiao Ash was obviously shocked by Lu Xueqi's strange reaction for a while, and after a while, the three eyes were dripping and rolling for a long time, their mouths grinned, and they laughed dryly, and sat back on the broken wall, eating wild fruits by themselves.
Lu Xueqi smiled at Xiao Ash, and looked back, for her, how could that cold appearance be innate?
Her gaze fell on Zhang Xiaofan's face, and she said softly: [Xiaofan, eat something.]
Zhang Xiaofan's eyes didn't know where to look, just a blank and empty, he didn't speak, and he didn't nod or shake his head, Lu Xueqi seemed to have known that he would react like this, and he was not annoyed, he smiled lightly to himself, lowered his head and stretched out his white and slender fingers, and carefully peeled off the skin of the wild fruit.
These days, Zhang Xiaofan has been like this, Xiao Ash often goes to find some wild fruits to come back, Lu Xueqi peels the peel like this and puts it in his mouth, and then Zhang Xiaofan occasionally eats one or two petals like a mechanical reaction.
However, what does it matter? Lu Xueqi thought faintly in her heart, she has been waiting for ten years, as long as she can be with him, no matter how long it is, she will not care.
She lowered her head and peeled it carefully, the corner of her eyes swept to something, she was stunned for a moment, and slowly put down the wild fruit in her hand, Zhang Xiaofan sat down and did not react, but his hand has been clenched tightly in his fist these days, although Lu Xueqi found this, he didn't care, but at this time, he suddenly saw that there seemed to be something in Zhang Xiaofan's palm, revealing a corner.
She frowned slightly, put down the wild fruit in her hand, pulled up Zhang Xiaofan's arm, and reached out to break his fingers to look down on the things in his palm, who knew that although Zhang Xiaofan was still at a loss, but the palm of his hand was actually tightly gripped, Lu Xueqi couldn't break it, so she could only raise her fingers slightly, and barely looked in, but she saw that Zhang Xiaofan was still holding on to his hand even so, which turned out to be a piece of water-green broken clothes.
Lu Xueqi silently looked at the small piece of rag, and slowly put Zhang Xiaofan's hand down, a trace of gloom passed over her face, but then she took a deep breath, and when she turned to look at Zhang Xiaofan, her eyes were full of tenderness.
Gently, stretching out her hand, Lu Xueqi hugged Zhang Xiaofan in her arms, the breeze blew, and the hair on her sideburns fluttered gently, and a few strands fell on Zhang Xiaofan's face.
[Xiaofan, it's going to be okay, everything is going to be okay] She smiled, although there were faint tears in her eyes, her voice was still gentle and low.
[A long, long time ago, when I was a child, I remember my mother holding me and watching the stars on such a night.] Lu Xueqi slowly raised her head and looked at the night sky, where the sky was like ink, and the stars were shining, shining in the night sky, [She told me that although everyone has to die, if you are a good person, you will become a star after you die, and live well in the sky, and every night, they will look at us from the sky.]
[She's a good person, isn't she?Then she might be watching you from the sky? Xiao Fan no matter what, she wouldn't want you to be like this, what do you say?]
Zhang Xiaofan was lying in Lu Xueqi's arms, and his stiff body seemed to tremble.
Lu Xueqi smiled softly, two lines of tears slipped silently, under the starlight, her beautiful face was in the tears, as if there was a strange beauty, but her hands hugged the man in her arms more tightly.
Tightly, hugging him.
That's all it takes!
[!]
Suddenly, a shout came from the side, with the boss's impatience and faint anger in his voice.
Lu Xueqi was taken aback and looked to the side, only to see a plump and beautiful woman standing aside, with charming eyebrows, it was Xiaobai.
Xiao Ash behind Lu Xueqi screamed with joy, was very happy, jumped off the broken wall, rushed to Xiaobai's side and climbed up a few times, sat on her shoulder, grinned, obviously favored Xiaobai, compared to Lu Xueqi.
But at this moment, Lu Xueqi naturally didn't care about any monkeys, she frowned, a little confused, and said to the little white who suddenly appeared: [What?]
Xiao Baifen's face was pale, and it seemed that he was not very angry, but his expression was quite complicated under a closer look, and there was a faint heartache under the anger, so he only heard her say coldly: [When a person dies, he is dead, at most he becomes a ghost of the Yin Spirit, and he enters the underworld and enters reincarnation, how can there be any nonsense about turning into a star!]
said these words in person, but it was really ugly, even if Lu Xueqi had always been grateful to Xiaobai for telling her the truth of the matter and Zhang Xiaofan in this ruins, she couldn't help but sink.
It's just that before Lu Xueqi could speak, Xiaobai had already stepped forward, but he didn't look at Lu Xueqi, just stared at Zhang Xiaofan and said coldly: [How long do you want to go on like this, do you want to live like a living dead for the rest of your life?]
Xiaobai's voice was fierce, Lu Xueqi's face moved, showing a little unbearable, she opened her mouth to speak, but she forced herself to endure it, but her hand seemed to be distressed, and she hugged Zhang Xiaofan tighter.
Zhang Xiaofan was scolded by Xiao Bai, and the muscles on his face jumped, but then he closed his eyes and returned to his self-contained appearance.
Lu Xueqi screamed and said: [Don't, don't be like this, he, he can't stand it]
Xiaobai sneered and said: [I'm going to wake him up, no, I don't just want to wake him up, I think I have to wake him up!] Saying that, without waiting for Lu Xueqi to react, Xiaobai suddenly raised his palm, and slapped Zhang Xiaofan twice vigorously in front of Lu Xueqi.
[Smack!smack!]
The slap was crisp and loud, Zhang Xiaofan's cheeks suddenly swollen under the two red palm prints, and bright red blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and the whole person was beaten backwards.
Lu Xueqi was taken aback, where did she care so much, she hurriedly grabbed it, pushed Xiaobai away, hugged Zhang Xiaofan, didn't care about the blood, and wiped it for him with her own cuffs.
Stroking the palm prints on the two injured cheeks, Lu Xueqi was heartbroken, opened her eyes and glared at Xiaobai, and said angrily: [Are you crazy?]
Xiaobai seemed to be deaf to Lu Xueqi's words, just stared at Zhang Xiaofan, whose body was trembling slightly, and said coldly: [What are you like this, pretending to be a ghost half-dead all day long, or are you inexplicably thinking of using this method to mourn Baguio?
[roar]
Suddenly, a desperate roar burst out of Lu Xueqi's arms, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly pushed her away, and rushed towards Xiaobai like an angry and injured beast, who knew that Xiaobai stood there and didn't dodge at all, and when he roared and rushed closer, she didn't retreat but took a step forward, and threw it over with another slap.
[Smack!]
An even louder voice suddenly echoed in the ruins of Caomiao Village, and Zhang Xiaofan was beaten to the side, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, staining the placket of his chest red.
Xiaobai's face seemed to have a trace of pain, but she gritted her teeth, her expression became more severe, and she rushed to Zhang Xiaofan, who was gasping weakly on the ground, grabbed his chest and clothes, and shouted angrily: [You wake up, even if you die like this, Baguio will not come back to life, do you think that you can show your regretful state of mind in this way? Do you want to torture yourself in this way to make yourself feel better? I tell you, it's useless!]
Zhang Xiaofan closed his eyes tightly, his body trembled violently, and he was panting wildly, and even his lips seemed to have lost their blood.
Crystal tears slipped down quietly, but this time, it flowed from Xiaobai's eyes, she bit her lip tightly, two lines of tears flowed through her cheeks, kept flowing, and her voice was already choked.
[What do you think Baguio did to save you desperately for, is it to see you live your life like this today?] Baguio's death has nothing to do with you, and if you go on like this, Baguio's spirit in the sky will not rest in peace, do you understand?]
Xiaobai grabbed him, slowly knelt beside him, as if he had exhausted his last strength, hoarsely voiced, and said to him word by word: [Live, live well, this is what Baguio wants to see!] After saying that, as if she couldn't bear it anymore, she suddenly stood up and turned around, and strode out of this place.
Lu Xueqi has been standing silently next to her since just now, and when Xiaobai strode past her, Lu Xueqi suddenly said softly: [Thank you!]
Xiao Bai's face was still stained with tears, his body paused, and in Lu Xueqi's view, the figures of the two beautiful women reflected each other in the moonlight, and after a while, they gently stretched out their palms and shook them together.
Xiao Bai's face, behind the tears, showed a faint smile, nodded to Lu Xueqi, but did not speak again, and strode away.
After her figure disappeared into the darkness, Lu Xueqi slowly walked to Zhang Xiaofan's side, squatted down, and slowly held him in his arms.
His eyes seemed to return to the old days in an instant, the deep pain and endless scars in them, he was like a child, his lips trembled, and the corners of his eyes were filled with tears.
[Baguio is gone......] He trembled at Lu Xueqi, tears came out of the frame, like a wounded child finally crying, decades of grief could no longer be endured, he grabbed Lu Xueqi's shoulder, held her in his arms, cried loudly, and kept choking in his mouth.
[Baguio is gone, Baguio is gone, Baguio is gone......]
Lu Xueqi never thought that this strong man would be so fragile in front of her, but at this moment, she only had tenderness left in her heart. ]
It was a night that seemed extraordinarily long and sad.
After that night, Zhang Xiaofan woke up from the dream of the demons, but it didn't take long for him to have a high fever again.
With his Taoism at the moment, there will never be any disease-ridden things on weekdays, but at the moment, this fever is burning all over the body, and his mind is not clear.Lu Xueqi knows in his heart that his serious illness is actually caused by severe pain in his heart, and Baguio's death is the introduction, but most of the heart disorders that Zhang Xiaofan has worked hard to support in the past ten years are the root cause of serious diseases, but no one can cure them.
Sure enough, even if Lu Xueqi exhausted all kinds of methods, all the elixirs were given to Zhang Xiaofan, but they were like mud cows entering the sea, and there was no effect at all, and this big fever was unimaginable, and it didn't subside for ten days.
Lu Xueqi was very anxious in her heart, she stayed by Zhang Xiaofan's side day and night for ten days, and she looked obviously thin, maybe she saw her feelings, God finally opened her eyes and showed mercy, and when Lu Xueqi was about to despair on the eleventh, Zhang Xiaofan's high fever finally subsided.
Although the fever subsided, Zhang Xiaofan was still unconscious, despite this, Lu Xueqi was still greatly relieved, this mood relaxed a little from the tension, and a wave of exhaustion surged into her heart from every corner of her body, she forced Zhang Xiaofan's clothes to be tidied up, and then leaned on her side and fell asleep.
On her beautiful face, there is a faint smile of peace of mind, even if she is asleep again, her hand is holding Zhang Xiaofan's arm, the breeze blows through the ruins of Caomiao Village, the grass flutters, hugging their bodies, the world is lonely, only this forgotten corner of the world, as if there is a strange peace and happiness.
This sleep, but I don't know how long I slept, the stars shifted, her eyes were full of flowers, she was vaguely in her sleep, she saw everything she had dreamed of-
Be with your loved one for a lifetime......
Then, she woke up.
With a reassuring happiness and smile on the corner of his mouth, Lu Xueqi opened his eyes gently, the body beside him was really still there, he was sleeping peacefully, and his breath was beside him.
Lu Xueqi didn't move, as if this was her favorite appearance, she leaned quietly next to Zhang Xiaofan, listening to his sleeping breathing.
Suddenly, at this moment, in the direction of Qingyun Mountain in the distance, there was a sudden explosion in the sky, and then a huge firework bloomed.Lu Xueqi's face changed slightly, frowned, and slowly sat up and turned his head to look.
The fireworks slowly changed into the appearance of a long sword in the sky, and it did not disperse for a long time, which was a signal that was rarely used in the Qingyun Gate, and only when a major change occurred in the door and it was extremely critical, all the nearby disciples would be summoned and released.
Lu Xueqi was silent for a moment, turned her eyes back to Xiao Fan for a moment, slowly stood up, hesitated for a while, and finally reached out to take Tianya, who was leaning on the broken wall on the side, and floated out.
The wind, still blowing, and the grass is blowing back and forth in the same way.
Zhang Xiaofan fell asleep quietly in the grass, and in the depths of the grass on the side, a head suddenly poked out, but it was a gray-haired monkey with three eyes, turned around, [squeaked] and screamed twice, it seemed that he was a little surprised that Lu Xueqi was suddenly missing here, and then jumped to Zhang Xiaofan's chest, touched his head, and sat down.
Zhang Xiaofan was still sleeping quietly, but on his right hand, his fingers trembled slightly.
After about half a cup of tea, there was a sudden soft sound at the entrance of the ruins of Caomiao Village, and then I saw Lu Xueqi's white figure reappear there, walking towards the place where Zhang Xiaofan was sleeping.
Lu Xueqi slowly walked to Zhang Xiaofan's side and slowly knelt down beside him, but the expression on his face at the moment had completely lost the peace of mind and happiness just now, and there was only heaviness and a trace of pain.
[Xiao Fan has an accident.] Her voice, which sounded so empty, seemed to have no strength, said faintly: [Just now I saw the emergency signal of the sect to summon the disciples, and I went over to take a look, it turned out that during the time we were here, something big had happened outside. The Ghost King Sect where you used to be, that sect master, the Ghost King, didn't know what evil magic weapon he had obtained, he could actually steal people's minds and use them for his use, and what was even more terrifying was that he was said to be hiding in a huge red shadow and blood, as long as the red shadow went, whether it was ordinary people or cultivators, he would turn into a mindless living dead and be driven by him. ]
Lu Xueqi's face was pale, and he gently clenched Tianya in his hand, but in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Xiaofan, there was still a sense of reluctance in tenderness and regret, [Before, the righteous path factions had launched several encirclement and suppression against him, but all of them were wiped out, not to mention the vitality of each faction, the most terrible thing was that most of the people were robbed of their minds by him, and became the slave thug of the ghost king, and in turn killed the decent. For example, today's righteous path is overwhelmed, and the ghost king has recently approached the foot of Qingyun Mountain, showing his demon method, and even confusing the people in the towns and villages within a hundred miles of Qingyun Mountain, including Heyang City, plus those people before, the total number is not less than 100,000, and it seems that he is about to attack Qingyun Mountain. ]
She looked at Zhang Xiaofan's face in a daze, and suddenly, two lines of tears slipped from her eyes, and the tears dripped down and landed on the back of Zhang Xiaofan's palm.
[I wanted to be desperate for everything, so I will stay with you for a lifetime, even if I am spurned by the world and punished by the teacher, I don't care. ] But now, but now......] Her lips trembled slightly, and she slowly lowered her head, [But now it is Qingyun who is in trouble!] I was raised by Qingyunmen since I was a child, and it was the master who loved me and taught me, and my kindness was like a mountain. If it was just for us to be together, even if I was scolded and spurned by them, I would be willing, but now that they are in trouble, I can only go back to be with them. ]
Lu Xueqi looked at Zhang Xiaofan's face deeply, she didn't look away for a moment, she didn't seem to want to give up at a glance, the breeze came, and her clothes fluttered gently.
[Maybe you don't know yet, Qingyunmen is secretly in civil strife, and the once invincible [Zhuxian Sword Array] can no longer be started, this battle is only afraid that it is really fierce, and I don't know if I can come back to see you. ]
Lu Xueqi took a deep breath, stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and then, a slightly bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and looked at Zhang Xiaofan in a low voice: [Xiaofan, I don't know if it's providence, we always don't have fate to look like each other.] She paused, and after a moment, in a deep but firm voice, she said quietly: [But, I have never regretted it!]
After that, she leaned down and gently kissed Zhang Xiaofan's lips, and the warm feeling between her lips seemed to spread throughout her body.
A faint, blissful feeling......
She smiled, bit her lip, stood up, took one last look at the sleeping man, and turned away, but he walked so slowly, and his body often looked like he wanted to turn back to look again, but after all, she didn't look back again.
Perhaps, even she knew that if she looked back, she would never have the courage to leave again!
Dressed in white, she finally left.
The wind and grass were blowing, wearing a light fragrance, Xiao Ash quietly walked over, climbed on Zhang Xiaofan's chest and sat down, silently looking at the white back in the distance. Under him, on Zhang Xiaofan's palm, his fingers moved lightly.
The breeze has been blowing, time has passed quietly, Caomiao Village has fallen into a long silence again, the day has passed, the night has come, the stars have fallen, and the world has been seen all.
Xiao Ash sat on Zhang Xiaofan's chest, looking a little hairy, opened his mouth and yawned, and screamed a few times in his mouth. Then, as if he suddenly felt something, his eyes rolled and he looked at Zhang Xiaofan under him.
A low gasp sounded coming, and then, Zhang Xiaofan slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing that caught his eye was an endless firmament, and the deep darkness was dotted with countless stars shining brightly, and he did not move, just lay quietly like this, staring at the sky.
Little Ash seemed to have some doubts beside him, and crawled over to look at it, but then shrank back again.
Perhaps, it is precisely because the ancients understood these that they would tirelessly pursue long!
But if it's just an empty shell, what if it's immortal?
His expression was very calm, he had never been calm, no more sadness or excitement, he just looked up at the sky silently.
The sky is infinite, the stars are moving, the sky and the earth are silent, only the sound of the wind, faintly blowing.
Before you know it, it's getting dark.
But when the morning light fell and the last darkness disappeared, Zhang Xiaofan closed his eyes, and he lay quietly for a long, long time, until the sun rose and the warm sun shone on his body, he opened his eyes again, and this time, he stood up.
Standing where he was, he looked around, the ruins drowning in the weeds were desolate but kind, there were many places that had been deeply engraved in his heart many years ago and would never be erased, and how many places were places where he had once run and played and left simple happiness.
He walked along, his steps on the grass and grass, silently, and the little gray next to him came over, grabbed him by the hem of his coat three times and two times, climbed on his shoulder, and sat down.
[Woo]
The wind blowing from behind the bushes seemed to be stronger, making a whistling sound, and the grass beside him rose and fell with the wind, like waves.
This time, Zhang Xiaofan stood for a long time, he looked deeply at the ruins of the small temple, and after a long time, a faint and kind smile appeared on his lips.
The smile was gentle, and there was no trace of resentment and regret.
Then he turned around and walked away like this, never looking back again.
[Let's go, Ash.] ]
[Squeak squeak?] The monkey whispered over his shoulder and touched his head.
[Is it there?] He smiled faintly, greeted the oncoming breeze, and smiled: [Go where we need to go.] ]
His eyes moved, looking into the distance, the towering Qingyun Mountain, piercing the sky.
On the Tongtian Peak of Qingyun Mountain, there is a busy scene everywhere, but near the back mountain, it seems more secluded, and there is not even a figure, I think it is because of the strong enemy pressing the realm, and the Dao Xuan Zhenren who is a center of gravity has disappeared for no reason, so no one will notice this!
When the afternoon came, when the sunlight sprinkled on the quiet woods of the back mountain, Zhang Xiaofan was already walking on the quiet mountain forest road, he was not the first time to come to the back mountain of Tongtian Peak, he had been here several times before and after, and he was already familiar with the nearby terrain, just looking at his expression, but there was no trace of caution and anxiety, and his face was still with a calm smile that he had been having since he woke up, walking slowly.
The mountain road is rugged, the ancient trees on both sides are forested, and a few birdsong sounds are heard from time to time in the depths of the forest, Zhang Xiaofan's eyes turn from the forest to the ground and look ahead, the winding and stretching ancient road, I don't know how many past events have happened on it.
The mountains and forests are quiet, the wind is blowing, and it seems that there is not the slightest vulgarity in the world.
The familiar three-way intersection in his memory slowly appeared in front of him, Zhang Xiaofan stopped at the intersection, and his eyes unexpectedly looked to the right, behind the layers of dense forests, in the gaps of dense branches and leaves, a corner of the majestic ancestral hall of the ancestor was faintly revealed. He smiled and turned to step down the path.
The intersection is not far from the ancestral hall, and soon the solemn hall gradually appeared, but Zhang Xiaofan did not go to the open space, he just stood quietly behind a big tree with lush branches and leaves next to the mountain road, looking in that direction.
The hall was still so dim, and the stone steps and open space in front of the door were still covered with dead leaves like countless past days. After a while, a white figure stepped out of the main hall, handsome and extraordinary, with a peaceful smile on his face, and instead of a sharp sword, he had a broom made of bamboo.
He glanced at the fallen leaves everywhere, but a slight smile appeared on his face, raised his hands and lazy his waist, took a deep breath of the slightly sweet air in the mountains and forests, and then began to quietly clean the fallen leaves on the ground.
The brooms flew one after another, and the fallen leaves were swept aside little by little, and occasionally some of them were blown up by the wind like disobedient children, and they stubbornly wanted to go back to their original places, but they were also swept back again with a smile.
The wind blows through the mountains and forests, and the forest waves gust.
In the distance, behind the big tree, Zhang Xiaofan quietly looked at the familiar white back, revealing a knowing and quiet smile.
Above the clearing, Lin Jingyu seemed to feel something, paused in his hand, and turned to look at the mountain road leading to the outside world, but the mountain road was empty, except for the ancient trees and shrubs, where were there any other traces?
He was stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly and laughed, maybe he heard it wrong, thinking like this, he picked up the broom and swept it again.
Behind the dense forest in the distance, Zhang Xiaofan walked slowly, gradually moving away from the ancestral hall behind him, and soon, he came to the three-way intersection again. This time, he looked in the direction of the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, and without any hesitation, he stepped over the forbidden land and walked slowly.
He clearly felt that in the depths of the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, there seemed to be a mysterious power that kept calling him to go to that place.
This feeling was already extremely strong when he was still in the ruins of Caomiao Village!
Standing in front of the Phantom Moon Cave Mansion, Zhang Xiaofan stopped and stared at the mysterious place in front of him.
The appearance of this stone cave is no different from other ordinary stone caves in the world, the rough stone and the hard ground, the slight difference is probably only that the ground in front of the cave door has been trampled on smoothly in the depths of the years, showing the wind and frost here.
From that small stone gate, there has been a generation of Qingyun Gate Tianjiao Qingye Dao people, there have been countless people who have left their footprints here in the past years, this Phantom Moon Cave Mansion is really a witness to the rise and fall of Qingyun Gate for two thousand years.
And now, in front of Zhang Xiaofan, it is just an ordinary stone cave.
He smiled and walked in, as if he were coming home, without the slightest hesitation or hesitation.
The sunlight outside the cave is blocked by the stone wall, and it can't shine inside the stone cave, and the cave looks very shady, and the simple scene is just like when he first came here, and even the Tai Chi pattern hanging on the wall is exactly the same as the original.
Zhang Xiaofan walked over, put his hand on the Taiji diagram, and the faint light shone brightly, it was the Xuangong true method of the Qingyunmen Sect, in the clear light, the Taiji diagram slowly reacted, lit up, and after a while, as he expected, the mountain wall next to it slowly moved away, revealing the gate of white mist that rotated like a strange water wave.
Zhang Xiaofan stared at the unfathomable swirling water waves, the last time he entered it, he was hooked by the mysterious power contained in it, and almost fell into a place of no return, and now facing it again, the depths of the deep water waves seem to have a faint erosion force, making people have the illusion of falling into it.
He took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and stepped inside.
A sense of coolness rushed towards him, as if he had really stepped into a world of deep water, but after a while, Zhang Xiaofan found himself like the previous time again, surrounded by a world of emptiness and nothingness.
It was dark, boundless, there was no light, there was no end......
Xiao Ash, who was lying on his shoulder, became uneasy, moved, and screamed twice in his mouth, Zhang Xiaofan gently stretched out his hand and patted the monkey's head, as if comforting it, and Xiao Ash immediately quieted down.
Then, Zhang Xiaofan looked ahead, but there was nothing in his eyes except darkness, he looked at it for a long time, and he didn't move, until finally, a faint smile suddenly appeared on his mouth, but he closed his eyes and walked forward.
After only a few steps, suddenly the death-like silence had been broken, and with a bang, a blazing breath rushed towards him, Zhang Xiaofan could even clearly feel that he was like walking into a sea of fire, the skin and flesh of his whole body were being burned by the sudden flames, and the sharp pain was surging madly from every corner of his body, and the whole body seemed to be about to be destroyed in this fierce sea of fire.
But his eyes were still closed, and even when the muscles in his face were slightly twisted by the intense pain, the corners of his mouth remained faintly smiling. He walked forward step by step, slowly, but continuously.
On his shoulder, the monkey Xiao Ash let out a somewhat frightened cry, sounding very frightened, but Zhang Xiaofan immediately held it in his arms, so that Xiao Ash's head was buried deep in his chest and no longer looked out, and soon, it seemed that it was the master's palm and the heartbeat in his chest, which made Xiao Ash quiet, and he lay motionless.
The sound of the flames burning became louder and louder, and even the air around the body seemed to begin to smell a terrifying burning smell, and the pain in the body continued unabated, as if it had to endure a thousand times the pain with every step.
It's just that Zhang Xiaofan's footsteps still haven't stopped, and he is moving forward slowly and firmly.
At some point, the feeling of the raging sea of flames slowly faded, and around him, there was a vast silence again, and the pain in his body disappeared with it.
In the silence, suddenly, a crisp sound of water droplets dripping sounded in his ears, and the cold water droplets came from nowhere, falling from nothingness and falling on his face.
It's biting cold.
In a moment, there was no warning at all, a loud rumbling sound came from the front, overwhelming the sky as if it was omnipresent, Zhang Xiaofan's mind clearly depicted the terrifying scene, the huge waves were like a dragon, ten thousand feet high, and they slammed down, anything that stood in front of the power of this heaven and earth drama was as small as an ant, even the towering Qingyun Mountain was destroyed and swallowed by him in an instant, and the cold wind instantly tore his body apart, and the pain that was ten times more harmful than the flame burning body just now came from all corners of the body.
Zhang Xiaofan never knew that a person's body would be tortured like this, and he would feel such intense pain, even his stoic nerves, as if they were about to collapse before this pain.
Even if you die, you should open your eyes and look around before you die.
Like a lamp, this thought suddenly appeared in the depths of his heart, flickering in the distance, like a temptation.
Zhang Xiaofan took a deep breath and slowly continued to walk forward, closing his eyes tightly!
The waves and chills on all sides seemed to be provoked, and suddenly became more and more angry, the roar was deafening, and the feeling of torture like a thousand knives followed, Zhang Xiaofan's forehead was even covered with cold sweat, and his face was extremely pale, but he always maintained the residual clarity before the collapse, and still walked slowly.
Step by step, step after step, never stopped, just like life, moving forward slowly, after all, there is no turning back.
The tide slowly receded, and the deafening and terrible sound was gone, and the silence returned to him, a void that seemed to echo only his footsteps.
Alone, alone!
[Xiao Fan!]
Suddenly, a voice called out leisurely behind him, and in an instant, Zhang Xiaofan was like being struck by thunder, his body shook violently, and an unbelievable look appeared on his face, it was the first time, and he involuntarily stopped.
His eyes were still closed, but his lips began to tremble slightly, a little choked, a little like a knife, a little desperate, and said in a low voice: [Baguio ......]
The familiar voice seemed to be behind him, with infinite tenderness, with a bit of unforgettable tenderness that haunted him, and said faintly: [Xiaofan, are you ignoring me, you look back at me!]
Zhang Xiaofan's body began to tremble slowly, his body seemed to be in a fierce battle, several times he wanted to turn around, but he endured it bitterly.
A low but clear call, drifting gently behind him, as if it was endless, this life was bumpy and displaced, wasn't it just for that voice? Why? Why didn't you look back?
[Ahh
He roared suddenly, his body trembled, his teeth clenched, and his bones rattled, as if he had finally reached the limit of his patience.
However, it seemed that this was not the end of the story, except for Baguio's voice calling out to him behind him, and slowly, he actually heard the voices of other people, all of whom were unforgettable people in his life.
Daddy, mother!
Master Puzhi!
Tian is not easy, Su Ru!
Endlessly, those voices were layered on top of each other, wave after wave, calling and shouting behind him, and the past of his life was like smoke, and scene after scene flashed in front of him.
Thousands of mountains and rivers, one person trek; Thousands of mountains in the twilight snow, walking alone.
He doesn't want to be lonely, he doesn't want to live forever, all he wants is to be with his beloved!
Zhang Xiaofan hugged his head and cried, like a child, with nowhere to hide.
Tears dripped down, in the palm of his hand, there was a faint warmth, and the endless calls around him were still calling in his ears, lingering, tempting him, making him open his eyes and turn back.
It's just that the faint warmth suddenly quieted his trembling body, this familiar and warm feeling, as if he had felt it not long ago.
Once, in that void and darkness, he was in a coma, half-asleep, half-awake, in a trance, there were warm tears dripping down his face, in a terrible cold world, telling him that he was not alone.
In this life, there are thousands of mountains and rivers, and there are thousands of mountains of snow and snow in the twilight.
No......
Alone!
The countless voices around him suddenly became eager, as if they had been stimulated by something, and continued to call to Zhang Xiaofan with a bit of force, but his body slowly stood up, and the painful distortion on his face was slowly replaced by a sense of calmness.
Then, he smiled lightly, with a deep reluctance, with unforgettable thoughts, and smiled faintly.
Then he turned and walked, leaving all the voices behind him, and letting it scream, and then in the midst of the shriek, it gradually subsided.
Silence finally fell again.
A gentle coughing sound came from in front of Zhang Xiaofan, it was an old voice, a little fragile, a little surprised, [It turned out to be you. ]
Zhang Xiaofan stood in place, took a deep breath, slowly exhaled a long breath, and slowly opened his eyes. (To be continued.) )
