Chapter 168

From early morning to dusk, from evening to dawn, time goes away bit by bit, sometimes as fast as lightning, sometimes in autumn.

Some people fall asleep peacefully, immerse themselves in the beautiful and warm dreamland, and even can see the beauty they are looking forward to most in their dreams. However, some people can't sleep all night, sit still, open their eyes, look at this seemingly endless night, and even give up hope for the new day.

Then it was daybreak.

As the night passed, when the first ray of light from the sky came down, there was a light mist floating in the forest. There were some crystal clear dew on the leaves and weeds, and there were several clear birdsong sounds in the distance, which added a bit of quietness to the forest.

Stone pig is still asleep, maybe he was hurt too much and tired before, maybe because he saw something he really loved in his dream, so his ferocious and ugly face still shows a mild smile which is rarely seen in ordinary days, and he still sleeps in his dream.

The little black pig is also sleeping. Although he doesn't know when to start, the little pig's eating and sleeping have suddenly decreased a lot, even though these two things are his favorite things in the past. However, in this quiet morning forest, it still relies on Shen Shi's side and sleeps quietly. Occasionally, when it sleeps, its drooping ears will suddenly bounce, as if it has dreamt of something. But soon, it will scratch its head on Shen Shi's body and go back to sleep.

Shen Shi didn't sleep, neither did the old white monkey.

In this way, the two of them sat in the dark forest all night without saying a word.

Dew quietly wet the skirt, let the body feel the chill here, Shen Shi silently with his hand to send the little drops, looked up to the old white monkey.

In the morning light, one night later, the old white monkey's face was nearly pale, only on his cheek there were two faint abnormal red halos, including his eyes, also full of blood.

The wine jar with flower carving wine was tightly held in his arms. By this time, it was half empty. The old white monkey had been drinking all night.

One mouthful, one mouthful after another, the strong and mellow smell of wine surrounded him, making him look as if he had been soaked out of the wine. Except for his eyes, although they were turbid, they did not close.

He was staring at the world, watching the sky light up from the endless darkness, watching the morning light fall from the leaves, illuminating the forest. Then he turned his head, looked at Shen Shi, and suddenly said:

"before I read the book, it said that although the wine made by the Terran is mellow and sweet, it will be drunk after drinking too much, but this night I will be drunk No matter how you drink it, you can't get drunk. Are all the words in the book deceptive

Shen Shi shook his head silently. After a while, he said softly, "don't drink."

The old white monkey laughed, ignored him and took another sip from the wine jar.

Then he waved his hand, as if he was tired at last, lowered his head slightly, put his head on the edge of the wine jar, took a deep breath of the wine, and said:

"you go."

Shen Shi looked at him silently. The old white monkey just hung his head and looked as if all the tiredness of the night was pouring in at the moment and he was about to fall asleep. Shen Shi didn't say anything more, or he didn't know what to say. With a few inexpressible loss and loss, he slowly stood up.

The movement of the body bounced the little black pig sleeping on him to the ground. The little black pig's head turned and woke up. He opened his eyes, yawned, stood up and rubbed his head at Shen Shi's feet.

Shen Shi took a deep look at the old white monkey, turned and walked. After a few steps, he stopped and said, "do you have any other words to ask me?"

Behind him came the tired voice of the old white monkey, old and weak, and said, "what else can I ask, and what's the use of asking?"

Shen Shi stood for a while, then looked up at the sky. Between the leaves, the morning light was a little brighter. Maybe outside the woods, it was a brand new day and a brand new and familiar world.

He walked forward quietly and silently. Under the sleeves of his black robe, his hands clenched into fists, but from the beginning to the end, he never looked back. Little black pig looked back at the old white monkey and the stone pig who was still sleeping. It seemed that he didn't know. So he went over and rubbed the stone pig's shoulder with his head. Seeing that the stone pig was still awake, he hummed twice. Then he ran forward with short legs and followed Shen Shi's feet.

A person and a pig, so slowly away, slowly disappeared behind the leaves of trees.

With his back against the tree, the old white monkey watched the two figures leave. His face was expressionless, but his lips were trembling slightly. Then he grinned, raised his head, held the wine jar in his arms, and drank a lot of wine.

Closing his eyes, he seemed to be a dreamer, sighing softly: "good wine."

Wind over the top of the forest, branches and leaves gently swing, leaving only a few lonely, residual in this quiet deep forest.

The sound of rustling footsteps reverberated in the dense forest, and the light fell from the gaps between the top branches and leaves, illuminating the road ahead. With the swing of the tree crown, the light staggered and changed, like dancing light spots, fell on Shen Shi and little black pig.Walking all the way, through trees and shrubs, we are getting farther and farther away from last night and closer to the outside world.

At that time when the light and shadow were interlaced, the current light suddenly brightened up. When we could see the edge of the forest, Shen Shi's steps suddenly stopped and stood in the same place.

The master looked up at the pig and stopped.

Shen Shi looks back silently. The forest is deep and covers all the traces of his past. It's like this road he's gone through. When he looks back, it's gone. It's like a dream. When he wakes up, it disappears without a trace. It's like he's never really gone.

The shadow of the tree is whirling and swaying with the wind, which covers the way and the figure of the old friend.

After a moment of gazing out of the forest, the pig strode quietly through the dark.

The bright light came down from the sky and made him squint slightly. The fresh wind came from the far field and floated his wrinkled black robe.

It's a brand new day. It's so beautiful and sunny. The sky is blue. There are some white clouds in the distance. The river is clear and winding. Even the small village that suffered a disaster yesterday seems to have some peace.

As if it was the feeling he had been familiar with since he was a child, the taste of being at ease in the human race.

He couldn't help stepping towards the village.

When we got closer, we could see that there were still many traces of looting in the village, and the ruins were still lying on the ground everywhere. Of course, the burning fire had already gone out, but some of the charred and blackened wooden window frames could also be seen.

At least when the villagers of maixuanmen came back to the village, they didn't know the names of the villagers.

But on the road and the open space in the village, there are obvious signs of disorder. It seems that many people have passed by, and many people have been left here. But now it is empty and nothing is left.

Shen Shi's eyes swept around and walked away. Little black pig followed him and looked around.

When he was about to approach the house where flowers and wine were hidden yesterday, suddenly a voice came from the front. Shen Shi stopped and looked up. There were two people standing under the eaves. They were Geng Cheng and Nangong Ying.

At this moment, Geng Cheng said to Nangong Ying: "I'm sorry Last night, we sent all the demon clans to the mine cave, and left Fu Jun, Ding and two younger martial brothers to guard there. With our original staff, we must be safe. Everything is waiting for the day when we open the cave and dig the mine... "

Although he looks much older than Nangong Ying, Geng Cheng seems to be more respectful in front of this beautiful woman. Nangong Ying is listening quietly when she suddenly frowns. However, she sees Shen Shi approaching from the village and stops Geng Cheng's words with a wave of her hand.

Geng Cheng looked back and said, "is that you?"

Shen Shi stopped in amazement, but he didn't expect to meet these two people suddenly. He was a little flustered for a moment. In the battle yesterday, he could see clearly. Each of the monks of the mysterious sword gate could activate the magic weapon of the immortal sword, and the monks who could activate the magic weapon should at least have the way of coagulating the yuan realm. In other words, these mysterious sword gates No matter which monk he was, he was steadfastly suppressed in the realm of Taoism. After all, for three years in the demon world, he suffered from no spiritual crystal cultivation, but he was just outside the high-level threshold of Qi refining realm. He was delayed for three years, and he is still only a monk of Qi refining realm.

Shen Shi didn't have the slightest confidence in Geng Cheng when he was short of a big realm of Daoism. Moreover, he faintly felt that Nangong Ying was outstanding among these people yesterday, and easily defeated Qian Yi's flying sword. This Daoism skill is not easy. I'm afraid that she is at least in the high level of Ningyuan realm, and even cultivated to the divine realm.

When Shen Shi looked at the two men, he could not help regretting that he rushed into the village, but it was too late for him to regret. He had to smile and said: "I Taking advantage of that a few demon clan don't notice, oneself look for an opportunity to sneak out

Geng Cheng and Nangong Ying look at each other, frown, and look at Shen Shi from head to toe. To tell you the truth, the name of lingxiaozong is like thunder in the Hongmeng Xiuzhen world. Geng Cheng has admired Shen Shi for a long time, but the Shen Shi He saw yesterday and today makes him unable to connect him with lingxiaozong.

Nangong Ying, who was standing beside him, seemed to have a subtle look, but after a moment, she said with a light look: "I contacted Tianjian Palace last night. When they got the news, they told Lingxiao Zong about it with" Wanli water mirror "and asked if there was a person named Shen Shi in Lingxiao Zong."

Shen Shi's heart thumped for a moment, and suddenly became nervous for no reason.

Nangong Ying looked at him, and a look of doubt flashed by, but she said, "not long after that, news came from lingxiaozong that there was a disciple like you, and she would send someone to pick you up. It's just that Guiyuan kingdom is located in a remote place. Even if the fastest way to get here is from Lingxiao sect, it will take at least ten days to get here. So we agreed to meet you at the "sanchunlou" in Duanyue city in ten days. Do you understand? "Shen Shi closed his eyes. His tight body suddenly seemed to relax. Then he nodded solemnly, clasped his fist and arched his hand to Nangong Ying and said, "I know. Thank you, Nangong elder martial sister."

Nangong Ying looks at him and suddenly says, "although Lingxiao sect only says that you can meet in Duanyue city in ten days, we have a branch in Duanyue city. If you want to live there for a few days, it's OK to wait for your sect."

Geng Cheng's face changed slightly, and he took a look at Nangong Ying. She seemed to be puzzled. The woman who had a great reputation in Tianjian palace was not pleased with her yesterday, but today she suddenly invited her.

Shen Shi was also surprised, but then he shook his head. After three years in the demon world, he came back. He wanted to have a good look at the new place from the bottom of his heart. Moreover, he still had an indescribable sense of distance from the friars of Tianjian palace and xuanjian gate. Maybe it was because what they did to the grey lizard tribe yesterday made Shen Shi subconsciously understand I'm not feeling well.

So in the end, Shen Shi politely declined.

Seeing that he doesn't want to go there, Nangong Ying doesn't force her to stay. She only says that if she needs to, she can go to Duanyue city to find her. After Shen Shi agrees to thank her, she doesn't want to stay any longer, so she turns and walks outside the village.

After watching him go away, Geng Cheng turns to Nangong Ying and says, "Nangong younger martial sister, why do you suddenly seem to value this person again? He clearly..."

Nangong Ying's delicate face showed a thoughtful look, and slowly said: "Wanli water mirror technique can only communicate one sentence at a time. Based on our friendship with Lingxiao sect, they should have given this person to our care, or asked us to take them and send someone to take them away."

Geng Cheng frowned and said, "do you mean..."

Nangong Ying said faintly: "Lingxiao sect has sent people all the way here, but it seems that they don't want outsiders to interfere, and they don't want to meet Shen Shi at our place. It seems that It seems to give people the feeling that they want to take this person back secretly. "

Geng Cheng was surprised and said in a low voice, "is there any secret about this man?"

Nangong Ying silently shakes her head and just looks at Shen Shi who is walking away. There seems to be more and more doubts in her eyes.

Just as Shen Shiyan was about to walk out of the village, suddenly, a sharp but harsh scream rang out from the deep forest outside the village.

The cry was so shrill that it seemed as if the man who was crying was suffering from great pain. Even at such a distance, the three people in the village could hear it clearly.

For a moment, their faces changed slightly. Shen Shi also stopped subconsciously and looked up at the forest in amazement. Just when he was a little suspicious, he suddenly saw a figure coming out from the edge of the forest. It was Qian Yi, the disciple of xuanjianmen whom he had seen yesterday.

See Qian Yi at the moment with a grim smile, a bloodstain, but look at his action if there is no sign of injury, it seems that other people's blood spilled on him. After hearing the scream, Nangong Ying and Geng Cheng soon came to the village. Seeing Qian Yi's fierce and murderous appearance, Nangong Ying immediately frowned.

Shen Shi didn't know why, his heart beat fast suddenly, and even his breathing was a little difficult. When Qian Yi got close to him, Shen Shi was surprised to find that he was carrying a bloody thing in his hand. When he looked at it carefully, it turned out to be a much stronger arm than ordinary people. The blood kept flowing from the wound of the broken arm and dripping on the ground. All the way, it was dyed into a blood road. It looked as if it had just been cut off from someone.

The dazzling bright red came into his eyes. The little black pig beside him suddenly gave a low roar, while Shen Shi's body was shaking heavily. He felt as if his arm had fallen into the abyss and his heart was broken.
