The Hanshan He family is known as the first family west of Yunling. Its ancestors opened up 60,000 miles of territory for the demon clan in the chaos, so it can also be called a glorious family.
Of course, that was a long time ago.
When He Huating was born, the Hanshan He family had already disappeared from the public.
It was He Huating who came out of the blue and made great progress all the way until he finally reached the top and regained the Fountain of Youth, thus re-establishing the family's momentum.
When his plan failed and he left the Fountain of Youth in the Land of God's Sky, he also died, which naturally announced the downfall of Hanshan Crane once again.
Zhu Yi was almost killed in the Nantian battlefield. The injuries she suffered were not just minor injuries, they really hurt Shou Yuan.
Just as the Shenxiao Bureau was about to open, she set her sights on the Fountain of Youth.
What she wants is not a dry and dead fountain of youth. What she wants is what He Huating asked for back then - what she wants is for the fountain of youth to revive and renew its myth.
If the Fountain of Youth revives in her hands, she can quickly recover from her injuries and regain respect in this dangerous world. The Spider Family can also use the power of the Fountain of Youth to rise quickly.
It is of course extremely difficult to achieve this result. Otherwise, the Hanshan He family would not have watched the fountain of youth dry up when the sun was at its peak. He Huating would not have fallen into the trap of the gods and disappeared in one fell swoop in order to revive the fountain of youth.
.
But Zhuyi searched the classics, traced the history, peeled off the cocoons, and discovered something interesting——
He Huating is very likely still alive!
The first person to have this conjecture was not Zhu Yi, but He Huating's opponent back then.
He said on Yunling: "If you return to Huating, you should play chess with me."
This is regarded as the exclamation of heroes cherishing heroes.
But Zhu Yi believed that there was some kind of truth hidden in it.
It is of course difficult to revive the Fountain of Youth on your own. But what if Hehua Pavilion still had a layout back then? What if it were to directly borrow or continue the layout of Hehua Pavilion?
Isn't this another kind of grafting cause and effect?
He Huating ate the fruit early in the morning, and the Queen of the Spider Yi became enlightened because of the orchid!
The layout of Tianyao Zhuyi in the land of Shenxiao was only fully revealed at this moment.
She made many arrangements for the Fountain of Youth, with Hehua Pavilion being the focus. She even took a trip to Yunling in person, and went as far as Liyu to find the descendants of the Hanshan He family who were scattered all over the world, and got the inheritance of the Hanshan He family.
tokens, and weaving a prison net.
But in a game of chess, everyone has his own secret, and no one can decide everything.
Especially in this situation where there are many ways to make moves, one stone can cause thousands of ripples.
In order to prevent the human race from taking away the Zhiwen Bell, Zhu Yi voluntarily gave up his plan and took action in advance to compete with Zen Master Xing Nian even though his injury was not yet healed.
As a result, he lost his skills and was almost beaten to death by Zen Master Xing Nian...
Fortunately, Yuanxianting took action and escaped with his life. However, he also completely withdrew from the Shenxiao game and was no longer qualified to play chess.
But the chess player left the game, the layout was broken up, but the chess pieces were still there.
Without Zhu Yi's support, Zhu Lanruo, as a chess piece, still has to continue this game!
Chess pieces can become chess players, and the world of Shenxiao certainly has infinite possibilities.
Facing the withered Hehua Pavilion in 3922 of Yuanxi, the younger generation Zhu Lanruo, holding the folding fan of the Hanshan He family, stood like an orchid. It took away all the sight and monopolized the brilliant light.
But he was not in a hurry to ask questions immediately. Instead, he said in a calm voice: "He Huating, I lost my father when I was young, and was raised by a widowed mother. I learned etiquette at the age of six, and learned the scriptures at the age of nine. I am already the ultimate demon king at the age of thirty... There is no real truth in my life.
He was defeated and swept away all the geniuses of his generation. Later, he became enlightened through "hostility" in a creative way, which shocked the past and the present!
The first round of reaching the top was a fight with two heavenly demons. He was the first to take action, but he pretended to be a yellow bird after being captured as a cicada. In the end, he successfully regained the Fountain of Youth that the He family had long lost, and became famous all over the world!"
All the monsters present listened quietly. In Zhu Lanruo's slowly unfolding narration, the three words He Huating were no longer just an old monster with wrinkled skin and decayed bones, but a legend full of flesh and blood.
A top powerhouse who is truly active at the top.
He Huating also listened to her story in silence, the light in his eyes beating lonely, as if he had returned to those eras worth recalling.
Those times were so... wonderful.
"But in the game of resurrecting the Fountain of Youth, He Huating, a generation of heavenly demons, finally tasted the only and last failure in his life." Zhu Lanruo continued in a gentle voice: "The Fountain of Youth eventually died, and He Huating finally experienced the only failure in his life."
Huating's demonic body was also shattered, his Dao principles were wiped out, and it is said that his body and soul were both destroyed."
He Huating remained silent.
"My ancestor searched the classics and concluded that you may still exist in the world. I thought you were hiding in the spring, but I didn't know you were hiding in time." Zhu Lanruo said: "But until now, until now, you have been so malicious to us descendants.
Obviously, your game has gone on for several rounds... I just feel that you are a silhouette left by He Huating in time. Even now I can't believe that you are He Huating."
"It once left such a bright light that illuminated the entire Yunling Mountains. Whenever future generations discuss the geniuses of history, they are all listed among them. When Lan Ruo was a child, he read his biography. When he read about the three statues seizing the spring, he applauded and praised until he lost the game.
Death, three sighs of regret!"
Her beautiful, slightly sad eyes looked at He Huating like this: "Although He Huating is dead, he is still a legend. But at this moment, who is this skeleton standing by the Fountain of Youth? If you look like this
To continue the history of Hehuating, it is such a pity for the name Hehuating."
"Girl doll." He Huating curled his lips: "What you said, ancestor, I just find it funny. Since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit! If I die here, no one will remember. If I kill you all, who will?
Do you know? If I successfully resurrect and go to your era to continue the myth, I will be a myth!"
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit?" Zhu Lanruo said: "There is such a pair of formidable enemies. The winner is Emperor Yuan Xi, known as the strongest demon emperor since the New World, and has created the most glorious victory for the demon clan after they fell to heaven.
.The loser is Grand Ancestor Yu Zhen, who is still a legend of our demon clan and is respected by everyone. We are all in the world he left behind at this moment!"
"You'd better ask questions quickly. Don't know how to cherish time just because you are too young." He Huating said sternly: "I will answer you truthfully."
Zhu Lanruo said: "He Huating back then would never have been so nervous."
"Little girl, you are talking like this!" He Huating said: "I don't think about it, if I were still in those days, would you still have a chance to talk to me? Even your ancestor, what does it mean? How could you be qualified to talk to me?
My move?"
This is a bit too arrogant.
Zhu Lanruo may not have the chance to talk to him. But Jue Ding is the top in any era. No matter what achievements He Huating has, Zhu Yi will not be unqualified to marry him.
False words must originate from a false mind.
Thinking about this protagonist who was active in the era of Emperor Yuan Xi, there were some waves in his heart!
"That peerless Mr. He probably can't go back." Zhu Lanruo said with emotion: "It may still be the year of Yuan Xi in 3922, but the year of Yuan Xi in 3922 has passed after all!"
He Huating looked at her: "Little girl, what you say is irrelevant to the topic. Do you think you can disturb my mind?"
The old man sitting on the bluestone said painfully and dying: "My ancestor's heart has been dried by time long ago. It is even more wrinkled than my face now, and there is no blood in it!"
"Old sir, you have misunderstood!" Zhu Lanruo said: "I am just looking back at some of my childhood thoughts. How can it touch your heart, and how can it help solve this situation?"
She held the folding fan with one hand and tied the broken string to the middle of the fan. She used the fingers of her other hand to wind the broken string casually.
Her beautiful eyes were slightly raised, and she suddenly had an arrogance that was very different from usual, making it difficult for other monsters to look directly at her: "Why should I be like this?"
Without waiting for He Huating to say anything else, she said directly: "Back then, He Huating became enlightened with 'hostility', so this plan you laid out will inevitably involve 'hostility'.
As I expected, the unspoken rule you designed lies in whether the answer of the respondent will trigger hostility. And this hostility needs to be born between us. You need fresh hostility to touch your principles.
Let this dry you be able to hold on to something.
Once the hostility reaches your needs, the key to triggering it must be related to the Fountain of Youth. After all, in your current state, you really don’t have many choices."
Zhu Lanruo's facial features are not very sharp, but at this moment she is talking eloquently, and the look on her pretty face shows a kind of determination that comes from the heart.
She undoubtedly has a strong heart!
"Let me guess, Xiong Sansi's previous question must have frightened you! How much did it cost you to smooth out the influence of the rules and be able to talk about your malice as if nothing happened!"
Zhu Lanruo continued: "But no matter what the price is, you can't bear it a second time, otherwise you wouldn't be so urgent and nervous."
She finally looked at He Huating, her eyes were very calm, and her voice announced the ending: "I only need to ask you a question similar to this one more time, and you will be gone."
Facing these extremely beautiful eyes, He Huating certainly knew that he had failed!
This quiz game was a helpless choice, and it wasn't exciting enough. Now that all the rules have been guessed and you have lost your privileges, no target will take the bait.
Just like what Chai Asi said, all of the young monsters present here have great abilities and are great talents. They will never give him another chance...
But he just smiled slightly: "Then you might as well ask."
"You are still trying to deceive me, but it is meaningless, Senior He." Zhu Lanruo said: "After Xiong Sansi and Chai Asi passed the test one after another, your chance has disappeared. Maybe you have been spending too long here.
, you have not only lost your spirit, but your eyes are no longer sharp enough!"
She sighed softly: "Even if I give you ten thousand more chances, you won't be able to capture any living sources. It may not be easy for us to do other things, but it is too easy to control our hostility."
She revealed the rules of the game, announced the methods of fighting the game, and broke down the game played by He Huating thoroughly.
He Huating finally stopped smiling so ugly. He sat alone by the spring, letting his reflection ripple in the ripples, and said lonely: "So what are you waiting for?"
"I actually have a lot of questions to ask you."
Zhu Lanruo said: "But I don't want you to leave in such shame."
"I don't want to ask anything else about this question at this moment. I want to ask the high-spirited He Huating on behalf of my young self -"
She asked: "What was your ideal?"
What a dangerous question this is!
He Huating twitched the corners of his wrinkled mouth and said nonchalantly: "My past ideal was -"
Maybe he was choking on the wind.
Perhaps the little strength he had originally had been exhausted.
He suddenly couldn't speak anymore.
The words he thought he could easily utter were, for some reason, too heavy to escape his lips.
His lips closed, closed, and finally pursed.
A mouth without teeth will collapse when you press it hard.
I was also a teenager once.
The soul is hot and the blood is boiling.
Now I am physically and mentally exhausted, and my face is disgusting.
Regarding ideals, I dare not name them.
He Huating showed a very strange expression, which seemed to be crying, laughing, sad and happy. He covered his deeply wrinkled face with his hands that were as skinny as chicken feet. He no longer looked at any young people.
Soul, and don't let anyone see him again.
The demons could only see him sitting there with slumped shoulders and hunched back. His skinny chest was like a bellows, vigorously inflating and then collapsing.
He gathered the last bit of strength in his dry body, and then moved to the side with great difficulty... tilted his head, and his whole body collapsed——
thump!
Just fell into the fountain of youth!
The water pattern that evenly divided the Fountain of Youth has dissipated at this time.
The ripples that distinguish true words from falsehoods were covered by bigger waves. Then they all returned to calmness and death.
The clear water engulfed Hehua Pavilion, like a glass of water containing a drop of water.
Hehuating just disappeared.
So he drowned and died.
In the sky above the Fountain of Youth, there was a white spiderweb that solidified from the void, as if it was trying to capture something, but it came up empty. Finally, it slowly faded away and disappeared.
All the demons were silent.
After all, He Huating saw this web and didn't want to become Zhu Yi's collection.
Still, he has realized his failure and is exhausted and no longer struggles.
Or is it simply that you cannot face the ideals of your youth?
There will be no answers.
Until the sacred mountain shook again, and the light outside the mountain flew away.
Shikashiro suddenly asked: "Have you really read his biography? Have you really admired him?"
Zhu Lanruo just threw the folding fan into the spring water, watched it being swallowed up by the ripples, and said calmly——
"What do you think?"
…
…
Crane's mother asked: "Does my son want to press the long sword, lead thousands of armies, hold the enemy's head, and win the crown for all generations?"
Hua Ting was practicing his sword and didn't answer.
Another ten years: "My son wants to annotate the classics of hundreds of schools of thought, become a family with one word, study for thousands of years, and establish a sect?"
Huating read the scriptures but did not answer.
Another hundred years: "My son has worked hard and worked hard for hundreds of years, and finally achieved what he has achieved today. However, fame and wealth are not pursued, and wealth and wealth are not increased, so why do you seek?"
Hua Ting said to him: "My child is seeking fame, seeking eternal fame. My child is seeking profit, seeking the benefit of the world. My child is seeking wealth and beauty. I hope that my demon clan will not have a poor family. In life, I seek greatness, and in death, I seek sages!"
