Chapter 31 is the knife!
Although according to their speculation, it should be already dawn at this moment, but probably because they are in a secret place, there is no light from the sky, and it is still dark.When I looked up, there were only wisps of cloud and mist floating in the dark blue night sky, without a single starlight.
It's like all the stars are falling down.
It is also like the night sky of Chendu in Shen Wu's memory.
For some reason, Shen Wu suddenly felt a chill again, which was different from the feeling of catching a cold just now, the chill came from the inside out, slowly seeping out from the bottom of his heart.He couldn't help shivering.
Without stars, the direction is very difficult to discern.Not to mention people like Shen Wu who can't tell the difference between southeast and northwest when the road conditions are slightly complicated, even Zhou Lian can only barely grasp the general direction.The two walked in the light, but it was like walking in the dark, and they could only move forward by groping.
Unfamiliar with the place of life, Zhou Lian lost his patience as he walked, his brows became more and more wrinkled, almost touching each other, and his eyes became more and more irritable, as if he was about to lose his temper if he couldn't control it.
It took a while before he realized that the surrounding environment had changed. They were still in the endless, quiet and soft starlight, but the tree with the stars seemed to have become shorter.
He looked around intently, and through the overlapped halos, he saw clusters of messy trees, which seemed to have grown in recent years, and the branches were very thin.The weeds under it are not as dense as elsewhere.
He also saw a dark shadow hidden under the shadows of trees.
It was a decayed fence covered with moss.
How can there be people in this barren land?
Zhou Lian was startled, subconsciously turned back to look at Shen Wu, saw his pale face at a glance, there was a trace of strangeness in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to ask, Shen Wu smiled at him as if he had already guessed something.
It was the smile that Zhou Lian had seen countless times in the past ten years.
He felt a little more at ease in his heart, and when he looked at Shen Wu again, he found that his complexion was only normal white, it seemed that the morbid paleness without the slightest trace of blood just now was just an illusion caused by the soft light.
Zhou Lian calmly withdrew the worried words he was about to utter, and scolded him with raised eyebrows: "It's this time, still laughing."
He looked away, glanced around inadvertently, and caught a large black shadow that was extremely inconsistent with the forest in his peripheral vision, and suddenly raised the heart that would let go to his throat.
It was not a single wall like just now, but a large piece of it connected together. Under the corrosion of time and years, most of it had already collapsed, and the original appearance could not be seen.They stood silently in the shadows under the starlight, clearly unable to speak, and there was no sound around them, but for a moment, Zhou Lian mistakenly thought that he had heard some vague ravings from a long time ago.
Zhou Lian felt nervous for no reason, took a step closer to Shen Wu, opened his hand slightly, and placed it in front of Shen Wu.
Shen Wu smiled at him again, with starlight in his eyes, he looked very calm.
Zhou Lian didn't even care about being awkward anymore, he was no longer as relaxed as he was at the beginning when he saw this rumored worthless secret realm.The shadows hidden under the brilliant light are like ghosts waiting to move, pulling them into the endless abyss at any time.
He didn't dare to speak loudly, so he could only suppress his voice, and whispered in Shen Wu's ear almost breathlessly: "Follow me."
Before the words fell, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black figure silently attacking behind Shen Wu. The thing whose face could not be seen was extremely fast, but it reached three inches behind Shen Wu in an instant, and then it raised its hand— —if it had hands.
Zhou Lian's pupils contracted violently, almost entirely by physical reaction, he grabbed Shen Wu's shoulder and lifted it aside, and the next moment Zhu Ming got out of the sheath.
Frightened, he directly poured all his spiritual energy into it, Zhu Ming even made a sharp light noise as he flew through the air, and the brilliance pierced into that thing's forehead.
The effect was also astonishing, the black lacquered thing had no power to resist, and immediately turned into a pile of rotten things and fell to the ground.
Surviving this episode without any danger, Zhou Lian breathed a sigh of relief. He felt a sudden loss of strength, and almost fell to the ground without paying attention. Give Shen Wu a big gift.
It's still not safe right now, who knows if there is only one ghost thing, although judging from the performance just now, although the appearance of that thing is a bit disgusting, the strength is not disgusting, it is a superficial thing.But what if a batch comes?
He used the remaining spiritual power in his body to alleviate the weakness of his limbs. When he looked up, he saw that Shen Wu seemed to be frightened, and he didn't respond for a long time. When the time was right, he secretly wrote down this matter, brought Shen Wu to Zhu Ming, and walked forward with his sword.
It's just that his 20 years of life experience is really barren, and he has never been through such a battle. Even if he repeatedly tells himself to be calm, he will inevitably lose his composure when he is impatient, and he will follow a road without thinking.
Fortunately, although Shen Wu couldn't help him much, he didn't cause any trouble for him, he just let him do what he did like a puppet.
Flying desperately for a while, he suddenly felt enlightened, Zhou Lian took a closer look, not only did not feel relieved, but even sweated.
The cluttered trees are no longer the protagonists, but houses are replaced by houses, and the starlight is dotted among them. At first glance, it almost makes people feel the tranquility of thousands of lights.
There was actually a pomegranate tree planted in front of the door of a very dignified family with unpicked huge red fruits hanging all over the branches, which added a bit of joy.
It's just that there is no one under the lights.
This bit of joy has also turned into a double eerie air.
Zhou Lian drove Zhu Ming to the ground, holding it in his hand, the palm close to the hilt of the sword was covered with sweat, but the other hand was still holding Shen Wu tightly.
He murmured unconsciously: "Where is this?"
A voice beside me said softly, "This is my home."
Shen Wu didn't speak for a long time, Zhou Lian listened to this sound suddenly, his white hair was sweating for a moment, and he realized it after a while, looked back at Shen Wu, and said, "What did you say?"
Shen Wu smiled at him, his eyes reflecting the fine starlight were still so calm, like a pool of clear springs - but Zhou Lian finally found out that he couldn't see through Shen Wu's eyes.
Then Shen Wu broke free from his hand and walked across to him.
He panicked for no reason, and said with a cold face: "Why are you talking about it?"
Shen Wu looked at the pomegranate tree, and said in a calm voice, "This is the capital of prophecy, we have arrived."
Zhou Lian's expression was blank for a moment, and he didn't speak for a while, but he didn't make a sound for a while, as if speaking suddenly became a very difficult task, he said blankly: "What do you mean?"
Shen Wu went to the pomegranate tree, picked a pomegranate, and said with nostalgia: "Brother, do you know that the pomegranate is here with another name, called Pomegranate Vinegar."
He didn't look a little different, even the upward curve of the corner of his mouth when he smiled was exactly the same as usual, and there was an unconscious intimacy in his words, but Zhou Lian was so panicked that his hands and feet were numb, and it took him a long time to regain his senses, and grabbed Shen Wu, forced himself to be calm and said: "No matter what happens, you go back with me first."
"Go back?" Shen Wu raised his eyebrows to look at him, his voice was very soft, but there was a hint of sharpness in his usual clear voice, "This is my home, where do you want me to go back?"
He started laughing as he spoke, at first it was a slight smile, then it amplified a little bit, and finally it became a loud laugh, laughing, he suddenly staggered back a step, lowered his head, and vomited a mouthful of blood .
He stopped laughing and looked at Zhou Lian expressionlessly, his eyes were so red that they were about to bleed, but no tears fell for a long time.
Zhou Lian heard him whisper with his bloodstained lips: "Where can I go back?"
Yi Jin is good at returning home, but returning home is heartbroken.
Zhou Lian's heart suddenly seemed to be pulled. His mind was still in a daze, but he subconsciously took a step forward and stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to hug something.
But Shen Wu took another step back, walked around behind the pomegranate tree, stared at him closely, and said: "Don't come over."
Such undisguised, defensive eyes were like a thin needle, piercing Zhou Lian's heart with a twinge of pain.He didn't know what happened, but he brought the person out. If he lost it, how would he explain to Master.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't believe that Shen Wu would hurt him, so even though Shen Wu warned him like that, he didn't listen, instead he was aroused and took another step forward in anger.
In the next moment, a cold light flashed.
Zhou Lian's pupils shrank suddenly, but in an instant, Shen Wu's sword was sheathed.
His hand holding the sword trembled imperceptibly, and immediately let go, Ren Xuanying rolled to the ground, took another step back, and kept a distance from him, before slowly wiping the blood splashed on his face, his eyes were calm:
"I said, don't come here."
Zhou Lian had never seen such a fast speed of Shen Wu's sword.It seems that the strength of a lifetime is spent only to stab this sword.
He later realized that his heart was a little cold, and in front of him was Shen Wu who had abandoned his sword, standing upright, his whole body exuded a dangerous aura that no one should get close to, his sharp edge was exposed, more piercing than Xuanying's sword intent.
On the face that was still childish, there was a sense of disobedience.
He covered his heart a little dullly, strangely he didn't feel much pain, the pain he should feel seemed to be cut off.So he took another step.
It didn't work out.
Zhou Lian had already exhausted his spiritual power, and it was at the end of his strength at this moment. He barely poked out his toes, but his legs softened unexpectedly, and he knelt down straight.
The ice in Shen Wu's eyes cracked for a moment, but then returned to calm.He lowered his head and stared at Zhou Lian, his face was abnormally gray and white, his voice was hoarse and harsh: "You already knew that, didn't you?"
At this moment, Zhou Lian finally tasted the heart-piercing pain. His mind became more and more unconscious, but he didn't want to show it. After a while, he tried hard to control his voice from trembling, and maintained the majesty of the senior brother, and asked Said: "What do you mean?"
Shen Wu didn't seem to hear what he said, his eyes were still on him, but when he spoke, he seemed to be talking to himself: "That's why you told me then, 'You will never see your father again'. "
He chuckled twice, Zhou Lian felt more and more uneasy about leaving him, this uneasiness even made him squeeze some spiritual power from the golden core that was on the verge of cracking to stay awake, he hurried Shouted: "Shen Wu!"
He has long forgotten what he said at that time, even if he said it, he definitely didn't mean it.But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing right now is...
"Zhou Lian." Shen Wu called out his name word by word, with an unprecedented indifference.
When these two words came out of his mouth, Zhou Lian didn't even realize for a moment that he was calling himself, and Shen Wu didn't seem to need his response, so he used his spiritual power on his finger and cut off a corner of his sleeve , Said: "I, Shen Wu, betrayed Yanluo today, and I am no longer a senior brother with you. Everything from now on has nothing to do with you."
Zhou Lian's eyes widened in disbelief, and he said sharply, "Are you crazy! Even if I'm sorry for you, it's okay if I don't get in your way in front of you in the future! Why..."
Why do you want to betray the teacher?What should I do, master, you...
What are you going to do?Where are you going?If there is anything you can't tell me, even if the sky is falling, wouldn't Master and I help you hold on!
He couldn't believe that the two of them had come to this point because of an unintentional remark he made a few years ago.Feeling aggrieved and angry at the same time, he wished he could knock the elm bump unconscious and tie it back with a sword, but under the extreme anger, it only affected the wound and vomited a mouthful of blood.For a while, the spirit became more depressed.
Shen Wu looked at him for a while, then walked up to him step by step, squatted down, spread out his hands, a piece of wood with a missing corner was lying on the palm, still shining faintly, he said word by word: "You and Changwuzi, I don't even want to see you again."
That piece of wood is very familiar, its name is "Pingshugen", even Zhou Lian recognizes it, it is the foundation of all formations.
Ten years ago, when the prophecy capital was destroyed, monks intervened.
The original bright light in Zhou Lian's eyes dimmed with the passing of his anger, and was replaced by a little bit of water on his eyelashes. He raised his hand as hard as he could, grabbed Shen Wu's sleeve, and gritted his teeth: "And then? What does this prove?"
Why don't you go back and ask Master?No...won't you ask me?
Shen Wu raised his hand, waved his hand away like a wisp of dust, and said indifferently: "No need."
He put the mirror given by Chang Wuzi next to Zhou Lian, and took off the storage ring on his finger without any haste, and said, "Give it back to you."
Not long after, he threw down everything he could get off of his body, even took off the cloak to keep out the cold, and then he showed a gentle smile and said: "I still have use for this body of spiritual power, and I will return it to your sect in the future." .”
Then he got up, passed Zhou Lian, and walked farther and farther without hesitation.
