Chapter 52: Nalan
The eastern sky has turned slightly white, and it seems that a new day will finally come.
Lin Yizhi half-knelt at the entrance of the fire cave, looking at the bottomless fire cave, the red waves, and the empty space, he suddenly felt that everything was getting farther and farther away, and finally it would be forgotten.
His heart was like a burning dry wood, in a trance, and finally turned to ashes.
Some people, with his passing, all the memories, thoughts, and things related to him in this world will eventually disappear with him, and the terrible thing is not death, but forgetting.
Lin Yizhi slowly stood up.
Bleak wind, melancholy fog.
Lin Yizhi suddenly felt a burst of depression in his chest. The young man, in this bleak morning, roared fiercely towards the depths of this uninhabited dense forest, until his voice became hoarse, and he suddenly sat down on the cold ground. Exhausted.
Forgive the fifteen-year-old boy and wake up the creature that is still asleep. It's just that he needs to vent too much.
"What sound? It seems to be Brother Yizhi!" A surprised girl's voice came clearly from the dense forest not far away.
Lin Yizhi's expression was in a trance, he only felt that this voice was familiar, he slowly raised his head, his voice was hoarse and empty: "Who is it, who is there?"
The sound of footsteps came from within the dense forest, hurried, with a slight uneasiness. In the blink of an eye, he had come to Lin Yizhi's approach.
A man and a woman, pink clothes fluttering, white clothes like snow.
It was Lu Xiyue and the young man in white.
Both of them saw Lin Yizhi, Lu Xiyue was very happy, and was just about to walk over to talk.
The young man in white stopped her suddenly, and then pointed at Lin Yizhi.
Lu Xiyue looked at his hand and couldn't help but be silent.
Lin Yizhi in front of him sat there straight, his eyes were foggy, and the expression on his face seemed to be sad, joyful, sad, and a little bit of anger.
He just sat like that. I saw the two of them coming, but their eyes were still looking forward motionless, motionless.
When Lu Xiyue saw Lin Yizhi like this, she knew that he might have experienced an unknown thing, otherwise his face should not be like this.
Three people, one still sitting paralyzed like this, two people stood silently three steps away from him, looking at him. Silent.
In my ears, there was the rustle of leaves in the dense forest. The silence was incomparable.
Long. Lu Xiyue finally realized that such a silent pestle was not the way to do it here. She slowly walked up to Lin Yizhi, slowly leaned down, and said softly, "Brother Yizhi, what's wrong with you?"
"Yes, brother, what's wrong with you? Don't you worry too much about us?" we are all fine, we should be happy!" The young man in white also came to his side and asked with concern.
Lin Yizhi was still silent, and suddenly, two lines of tears flowed out of his eyes, and the next moment, there was a suppressed cry, and in this dense forest, the incomparable pathos spread far and wide.
Lu Xiyue didn't know what was wrong with Lin Yizhi, so she hugged him, held his hand tightly, and between her hands, it was extremely cold.
Lu Xiyue suddenly panicked, and even the young man in white was a little confused.
Lu Xiyue whispered distressedly: "Brother Yizhi, what's wrong with you?"
"Yes, what about the beast snake?" asked the young man in white.
Lin Yizhi's face was full of sadness, his shoulders twitched, and he tried his best to suppress the sadness of his rich heart, and said slowly: "Dead, dead, Yu Lei, Qin Xiang are dead!"
After Lin Yizhi said this, he couldn't say it anymore.
After a long time, Lin Yizhi's expression calmed down, slowly stood up, and sighed faintly: "You, how did you come out?"
Seeing that Lin Yizhi had improved, the young man in white smiled faintly and said, "Brother, you almost scared me to death just now, and this girl Lu Xiyue and I are about to be swallowed up by boundless magma." However, two gray clouds rose around us, carrying us slowly upwards until we came out of the cave before stopping. Miss Lu and I have been looking for you for a long time, and Miss Lu has cried several times, thinking that you have died out of the fire hole?" also smiled at Lin Yizhi.
Only then did Lin Yizhi notice that Lu Xiyue's eyes were also red, and then he knew that she had indeed cried.
When Lu Xiyue heard this, she blushed with shame, and glared at the white-clothed young man and said, "It's just your quick mouth." With that, he shook his head and ran to the side.
Lin Yizhi calmed down, and then told Fang Cai about the matter.
When Lu Xiyue heard this, she was a girl again, and she couldn't help crying for a while, but Lin Yizhi had a big head, and she coaxed for a long time before she stopped crying.
The young man in white also sighed for a long time and said: "Alas, the fierce beast that is as strong as the beast also has such a desolate side, but the way of heaven cannot be violated, and anyone who fights for his life with the sky in vain will end up being just a pillow of yellow sorghum." ”
Lin Yizhi may have been affected by Yu Lei's words, and suddenly turned his head and said, "Heavenly Dao, brother, let me ask you, what is the Heavenly Dao, why does it dominate all the lives in this world?"
The young man in white looked at Lin Yizhi slowly: "Brother, I have a word, maybe it is contrary to the word, but it is still good to say it, the way of heaven is impermanent, but everything has its own laws of survival, any living creature wants to overstep, and heaven will punish him! All killing, greed, adultery, and delusion can fall into the devil's path! Brother, in fact, Yu Lei told you, no matter what the way and fate of this world is, or how strong you are, you must stick to your original intention!"
Lin Yizhi's body was shocked, and he thanked him: "Thank you, brother, every word is from the bottom of your heart!
The young man in white saw that the last trace of anger in Lin Yizhi's eyes disappeared, so he smiled loudly and said: "Actually, this sentence is also said to me, Yu Lei finally had an epiphany before he died, and he became a dragon." And what about us? The road leads to the sky, and the road is long! How can we maintain that original heart?"
After that, this young man in white, who had always been hearty, had a trace of loneliness and heaviness in his eyes, and it disappeared in a flash.
Lu Xiyue looked at the two of them, they said that they couldn't understand a word, so they had to kick the stones under their feet in boredom, and when they saw that the two of them finished sighing, they said: "Are you two finished? Seeing that you are so close to each other, I might as well leave, how about you have a long talk!"
In a word, Lin Yizhi and the young man in white were embarrassed.
The young man in white hugged his fists and said: "Okay, this is over, I should also go, if I have the opportunity to meet Brother Yi again, I will drink wine for three days and three nights!"
When Lin Yizhi heard this, he was quite reluctant in his heart, after all, in the past many days, this young man in white had met him in Pingshui, but he did not care about his life and sacrificed his life many times to save him in danger. Now, bit by bit, as if it were yesterday, I was reluctant in my heart, and blurted out: "Brother, in the vast world, where are you going to go next when you are alone? If I miss my brother, where should I find it?"
In a word, the young man in white said with tears in his eyes, but he was an informal person, and he waved his long sleeves and said: "The friendship of gentlemen is as light as water, and brothers are like this, and it is difficult for me to separate." However, the green mountains do not change, the green waters flow forever, and there is always a chance to meet in this world! I have already said that I will join a famous and decent family, learn a skill, and avenge my dead ghost master. Master Zun's soul, falling asleep every day, I feel uneasy!"
Lin Yizhi nodded and said, "It's just a few days of getting along, I really don't know the names of my brothers, and I don't dare to ask each other!"
The young man smiled and said, "Hehe, my surname is Nalan, and Nalan Mingxuan is!"
Lin Yizhi nodded, hugged his fist at Nalan Mingxuan and said, "Good name for brother!"
When Lu Xiyue heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised: "You are actually a member of the Nalan family, the head of the four major cultivation families?
Nalan Mingxuan's expression darkened and said: "That's the father, it's just that the family is in the middle of the road, and he has fallen into the tricks of thieves again, and now the Nalan family has long since declined, and I am the only one left!"
Lu Xiyue nodded and said: "I've heard of this, you don't have to mind too much, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!"
Nalan Mingxuan smiled and said, "What Miss Lu said is that in this way, I will leave!"
Lin Yizhi wanted to tell him about the acceptance of apprentices from the Sorrow Sect, but just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Lu Xiyue.
Lu Xiyue whispered: "The Nalan family is quite eccentric, don't recruit him before you don't know his details!"
Lin Yizhi said: "He saved me several times, but he is a good person, his family has suffered a great disaster, and he is quite similar to me, how can I not help him!"
After that, he raised his head and wanted to call Nalan Mingxuan.
But I saw that under the rising sun, in the kind clouds. Nalan Mingxuan has one person and one sword, and his white clothes are fluttering, and he is already far away.
Lin Yizhi looked at him until his figure disappeared, then he sighed and said, "What an elegant person!"
Turning around, he asked Lu Xiyue, who was following behind, "Sister Xiyue, why don't you let me tell me about our separation from the Worry Sect and the acceptance of disciples?"
Lu Xiyue smiled, pretending to be mysterious: "There are many secrets of this Nalan family, which cannot be explained clearly in one sentence or two, you beg me, or please me, I will tell you how?"
In fact, she is also bullying this Lin Yizhi's loneliness, in fact, the so-called secrets of the Nalan family, the people in the cultivation realm, basically know everything. It's just that Lin Yizhi has not been in the Worry Sect for a long time, and he can't see the master who looks down on him all day long, so naturally he doesn't know.
Lin Yizhi smiled and said, "Okay, you can go with me!" Without waiting for Lu Xiyue, he strode towards the outside of the dense forest.
"Where are you going?" Lu Xiyue was confused, and quickly followed, holding Lin Yizhi's wrist. In fact, this action is really intimate, but from childhood to adulthood, Lu Xiyue is used to this, and Lin Yizhi will go with her.
"Go to the market and try the tofu ......"
............
In the dense forest, there has long been no trace, and the figures of Lin Yizhi and Lu Xiyue have disappeared for a long time. The surroundings were quiet, but there was no sign of a bird.
It's just that, along the path of this dense forest, there was a slight sound of footsteps. The sound of footsteps came from far and near. Gradually, a person suddenly appeared in this dense forest.
The man walked slowly, his steps were a little old, he walked to the entrance of the fire cave, glanced at it, and said slowly: "In this world, there will be no more ten great beasts in the wilderness!"
After all, those words were full of vicissitudes.
Just look at this person's long figure, white beard and hair, he is already old and can't tell his age, but he has crane hair and a childish face, and he is in good spirits. His face was ruddy, and he was wearing a wide black yellow robe, and there was a lifelike gossip pattern in the middle of the robe. The wind blew on his body, his beard and his robe were fluttering, and he looked like a fairy wind and bones.
It's just that it is extremely incongruous that on the left hand, there is a white cloth banner with a few big characters written on it, which is blown up by the wind, and it is not very clear to see.
Seeing this old man, he glanced around again, slowly shook his head and said: "Now, those two children are still grown up, and they are both talented people, so he must be able to look at them." It's just that the barbaric prohibition has been destroyed, and I'm afraid that this catastrophe is already in sight. Akabane, what a sin you have created!"
After that, it slowly disappeared.
In the dense forest, everything is quiet, and no one comes to disturb it, only the rustle of countless leaves blown by the wind remains, as if to tell the unknown desolate and poignant swan song of life and death.
