But looking at Tang Yan's expression, she was actually calm, and her heart was even more chilling, and she couldn't help but take a step back, and her fingers pointing at her were almost trembling, and said, "You, what did you say?"

Tang Yan looked at her, and the tenderness in her eyes seemed to be stronger, but in Xu Chen's eyes, it seemed to be more poisonous than all the poisons in this world combined.

"Don't you want to go back to the Great Bamboo Peak of Qingyun Mountain to see your Senior Sister Ling'er, you still have a few fellow disciples in this Ten Thousand Bat Ancient Cave, they will definitely come to you, the longer you live, the greater their hope of finding you?" Tang Yan lowered her head slightly, but her tone of voice was still so flat.

It seemed that at this life-and-death juncture, Tang Yan's mood had changed unprecedentedly, and she seemed to have fallen into some kind of memory, and a fear that Xu Chen had never seen in her appeared on her face, and then, she shook her head heavily, as if she wanted to shake off some thoughts.

"Do you know what it's like to be alone and wait to die?" she whispered.

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, and faintly realized that she seemed to have something else hidden, and her curiosity rose, and she said, "What?"

The muscles in the corners of Tang Yan's eyes seemed to twitch, at this time of facing death, facing this young man who was the only one who accompanied her in the face of death, she was unable to control her feelings, and even her voice was hazy and empty: "It's nothing, you don't understand what you say, and you don't believe it." ”

Xu Chen's body suddenly trembled, a trace of bad premonition, and even a kind of chill, rising from his heart, from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

"Huh!"

Tang Yan smiled bitterly at the moment, as if she had completely fallen into painful memories, her eyes looked straight ahead, empty, just like the tone of her speech, flat and empty, with the deepest pain: "At that time, I was so scared that I cried, I was very scared. It was a little cave, it was dark, have you ever seen a cave that dark?"

"What?"

Xu Chen looked at Tang Yan differently, he was a little annoyed in the face of the other party's incoherent speech, but in the face of the other party's sad expression, Xu Chen was not easy to attack.

"I was buried deep underground, surrounded by a hard, cold rock except for a few drops of water from between the rocks. One person, there is hell, and one more, there is purgatory. ”

Xu Chen held his breath at the moment, listening carefully, with a trace of indescribable weirdness and faint fear, as if he felt that something was about to happen.

"But it was always dark here, and my father never came, and I was in that dark hole, very scared, hungry, and crying. I still remember stubbornly thinking that my dad would come to my rescue!"

Tang Yan's face gradually turned pale, but she still continued: "However, my father still hasn't come, I'm already hungry." ”

Xu Chen saw Tang Yan's body tremble almost at the same time as she spoke.

Tang Yan slowly turned her head and looked at Xu Chen, Xu Chen was looked at by her eyes, and couldn't help but feel a chill, "Do you know what it's like to be a person waiting to die there? Do you know the smell of your mother's corpse slowly decomposing next to you? Do you know what it's like for a person to never see clearly around and live in fear forever?"

Every time she asked, Xu Chen's body trembled.

"Sometimes, you don't understand, hunger is the most terrible thing in the world, more terrible than war, more terrible than killing, it can change you, make you bloodthirsty, even stupid. ”

Xu Chen could see it clearly, every time Tang Yan said a word at the moment, his body trembled.

"I cut my wrists, devoured my own blood, there was no pain, only comfort, stupidity, right? Hehe, in fact, this is human beings, we have always lived in feelings. I grew weaker and weaker, and eventually my vision was blurry, and I thought I was going to die, and I died like that. But, for some reason, I finally came to my senses, as if in a dream, and at that time, a blood lotus grew in front of me, and it was beautiful, more beautiful than any lotus flower I had ever seen. ”

Tang Yan's voice suddenly fell silent, Xu Chen was taken aback, and looked at her, but saw that Tang Yan's face was pale, her eyes were closed, and her whole body actually fell straight down, and she fainted when she looked at it. Xu Chen almost subconsciously rushed forward immediately and supported her, only to feel that the tentacles were cold, almost not like a living person.

He recovered from his illness for the first time, his body was weak, and it took a lot of effort to lay Tang Yan flat on the platform, looking at her pale face, Xu Chen suddenly realized that his whole body was completely soaked with cold sweat.

That night, Tang Yan had been in a coma, but from time to time in her dreams, she shouted words such as "mother" and "father", and the positions of the two people suddenly turned upside down, and Xu Chen came to take care of her.

But this seems to be a very painful past in Tang Yan's heart, in a coma, several times screaming, cold sweat, Xu Chen was at a loss, until the end, Tang Yan inadvertently waved his arm, grabbed his shoulder, and snuggled in his arms, as if he had something to rely on, he gradually calmed down and fell asleep quietly. But those hands were tightly grasping Xu Chen's clothes, and even his nails were stuck in the flesh, which made Xu Chen grin his teeth, but somehow, looking at Tang Yan's pale face, he couldn't bear to leave, forced himself to endure, and let her snuggle in his arms and fall asleep.

Tang Yan's past, to her, seems to be a deep pain, these years buried deep in her heart, but at this moment of life and death, I think back again, my heart is agitated, plus these days food is scarce, my body is also a little weak, I have been in a coma for a long time.

Xu Chen looked at the girl of the Demon Sect who was still holding on to her sleep at this moment, and shook her head and smiled bitterly, not long ago, he himself was a patient who came back from walking around the ghost gate, but at this time, it turned around and it was Tang Yan's turn to be sick. These two people actually fell one after the other, and it was really difficult not to die.

After a while, Xu Chen himself was also drowsy, but Wu Ziqiang sat up straight, just because Tang Yan was lying in his arms at the moment, looking at her haggard and slightly painful face, Xu Chen couldn't bear to leave.

It's just that it's really not easy to sit like this, he sits on the platform, one foot in the air and one foot on the ground, sitting half-obliquely, his body is straight, and there is no place to lean on, after a long time, the body is sore everywhere, not to mention, especially where Tang Yan is holding him tightly, her fingers are forceful, that is, after she fell asleep, the momentum did not decrease slightly, it really hurt into the bone marrow. It was also Xu Chen's temperament that was quite stoic, he actually gritted his teeth and endured it, and changed to someone else, but he was afraid that he would jump up a long time ago.

But Rao is like this, the sin he suffered is really not light, Xu Chen complained in his heart, but in the end, he did not leave after all, after a long time, the sleepiness also came up, and in this gradually numb pain and soreness, he actually sat and took a nap.

"Ah......h

Xu Chen stretched his waist, woke up, felt pain all over his body, and was sighing to himself, when he suddenly found that he was lying on the platform at some point, and Tang Yan, who was originally by his side, did not know where to go.

Xu Chen was taken aback, stood up, and looked around, there was still no shadow of Tang Yan, and the entire cave was empty, and there was not even a trace of sound. Suddenly, Xu Chen felt a chill in his heart, as if he was suddenly staying in a grave. He frowned, stood up, and without thinking about it, he began to look for Tang Yan.

After looking for the Demon Domain Heavenly Book Stone Room, and then going to the treasure room, he didn't see Tang Yan's figure, Xu Chen thought for a moment, walked out, and sure enough, it didn't take long to see Tang Yan's figure in the stone room where the two evil gods of the Demon Sect were enshrined.

I saw that in front of the benevolent immortal and the hideous-faced Fudo Ming throne, Tang Yan knelt on the ground, his shoulders shrugged, and although he tried his best to suppress it, he still let out a low choked sound.

She was crying.

Xu Chen stayed in the local area, no matter how he imagined it, he would not have thought that this demon sect woman who had always been strong and competitive would secretly cry in front of this idol. He stood on the spot, at a loss for a moment, but finally walked over slowly, and said hesitantly: "You, uh, you, how do you ...... Don't cry!"

"Why, why haven't you ever told you about your background before? I always thought that you were my aunt's daughter, the eldest lady of the Tang family, can you tell me when those things happened?"

After a pause, Xu Chen said softly: "Those things, are they related to me?"
