Zhen's power was not too great, but he deliberately used it at a bad angle. Ling Huan screamed in pain, but the perpetrator remained indifferent. Han Zhang wanted to take another step forward, but Zhen's slender hand couldn't pinch it.
He was even more ruthless, forcing none of them to dare to step forward. Xie Zhe's eyes kept wandering between the two of them and the approaching divine bird, and he was so flustered that it was hard to breathe.
"Is it... related to the hand? Earlier I did see that your spiritual power has a unique circuit on your right arm, but I didn't know it had such a use. Is this really the rumored Book of Ten Thousand Ghosts?"
"Let her go!"
Ignoring the threats from several people, Zhen turned around and glanced at the approaching divine bird. He waved, and the Nightmare Dog immediately stepped forward. It first stepped on the cow ghost summoned from the book with its two front feet. The cow ghost was summoned from the book.
The venom of ghosts has no effect on it.
The Nightmare Dog pressed it fiercely, and black liquid gushed out from its mouth, covering the whole body of the Niu Gui in an instant. Soon, the accumulated black liquid melted from high to low, leaving only a dark mark on the ground.
It's like it never came out of the book.
Then, it flew towards the dark-colored divine bird. Although the divine bird was very fast, there was still some distance to reach here. A blue-gray mist slowly flowed out of its eyes, and then it flapped its wings, spreading the
The fog fanned everywhere. When people looked at the divine bird again, they felt that its color was much darker, which must be because the fog was too thick. Then it flew at low altitude and passed by
Its owner. The strange black flames on its body enveloped Zhen and Lingyu at the same time. Finally, it rose into the sky, and the evil angel and Lingyu followed it into the sky. Xie Zhe, who rushed forward, could not help but
She successfully grabbed Ling Huan's ankle, but fell down. Ling Huan tried to struggle, but her whole body was tightly locked by the black flames; she wanted to scream, but was muffled by the evil angel's other hand.
Mouth.
"Shhh. You will disturb the peaceful dreams of the neighbors."
Ling Quan felt his hair stand on end. His desperate and helpless cry for help turned into a weak whine, but in the blink of an eye it reached a height where the sound could not reach the place. The full moon disappeared again, and the dense clouds silently erased all traces.
"Ling Hu!"
Hanshang looked up to the sky and gave his last shout, but all he got was the silence of the night sky.
The divine bird might be able to arrive, but it was blinded by the fog left by the Nightmare Dog. The thick gray mist spread and invaded the divine bird's senses. It plunged into the fog,
It lost its direction and all five senses became dull. Although it chose to flap its wings crazily in the first place to dispel the annoying fog. When it flaps its wings, beautiful brilliance like stardust will fall from its body. Unfortunately, no one has time.
appreciate.
Finally, the divine bird descended on this small courtyard, and when it landed, it flapped its wings and blew away the pottery dust all over the courtyard. Han Zhang immediately covered his eyes, but the dust still got into his fox nose, choking him to tears.
To come out. So
Fortunately, the dust dispersed quickly and his vision became clear again. When he opened his eyes again, Lord Ruyue had already walked to the side of the divine bird, but Xie Zhe was still lying on the spot. He stepped forward and helped Xie Zhe
When I got up, I felt that he was very heavy.
All the strength in Xie Zhe's body was gone. This battle was indeed exhausting, but his current state of mind was not as simple as just fighting. His eyes were dull, and he looked at Han Shang who was helping him in a daze.
His eyes were as if he were looking at a stranger. Han Chang didn't know what he was thinking, maybe he was thinking nothing at all.
"...It's really gone."
Xie Zhe said.
Han Zhang was stunned for only a moment, and quickly realized what Xie Zhe was talking about. Of course, he remembered what they had just said during the day... He never thought that only half a day later, it would come true in such a terrible way.
"Don't think too much, she will be fine."
"Will it?" Xie Zhe answered quickly, as if he had guessed that Han Zhang would give this self-deceptive answer. There was a different kind of hostility in his tone, but it was not towards Han Zhang - but none of them knew this.
Who is the hostility directed at?
Maybe it's fate.
"She, of course she should leave..." Xie Zhe's voice was trembling, "She should have left long ago. No, not now, and it shouldn't be like this. If she had left us earlier, she wouldn't have suffered like this.
This kind of thing - won't even hurt! Miyin won't even... She has just come out of Miss Xue's incident, she still - not yet..."
"She hasn't met my sister yet."
Han Zhang grasped Xie Zhe's shoulders with a little more force, with reluctance. She still had a lot of things to do, so she shouldn't have been kidnapped by the gangsters like this. Why? Is it because of her hands that brought disaster?
"Stop talking!" He then shouted to Xie Zhe, "It's useless to talk about it now! What has happened cannot be assumed. Why are you feeling sorry for yourself?! Now that things have happened, you still have to think about how to help her and how to deal with it.
She was rescued! Have you forgotten? She said she would take us to her house as guests, how should we explain to her parents now?! Cheer up!"
He had never spoken to his friends with such a volume, let alone used such harsh words. Of course all this should not have happened, but it should not be attributed to Ling Huan always following them. When they were together, it was clear that
They are all very happy, how could they have reached this point?
Han Chang slowly and slowly continued, "She is not wrong...she is just following us, and we are happy to take her with us. Neither you nor I can just drive her away, you know - all of this
It's because...because of us. Yes, it's all our own problems, but it's not yours alone."
This is all because we are too weak.
This is all because we are not strong enough.
This is all because of our indecisiveness.
This is all because we covet the goodness of human nature.
And kindness is never sinful.
White feathers floated down from the sky and fell on the two of them, as soft as snow. Han Chang picked up a piece of soft hair that fell on his arm, and it was still emitting a snow-green shimmer. Only then did he notice that the entire courtyard was covered with snow.
It was bright, brighter than bathing under the full moon. Raising his head, Lord Ruyue and the huge and beautiful bird behind him were watching them quietly.
"It may be able to help you..." Lord Ruyue gently touched the soft wings of the divine bird with one hand, "It must know what the people of the Wuyong family have been doing here over the years."
The two somewhat slumped people stood up straight, with lingering weariness still on their faces. Although the divine bird was beautiful, it had also helped them solve a lot of trouble. However, they only had the strength left.
He gave me pale words of thanks and had no time to say anything more. Lord Kisaragi said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, I couldn't help. It would have been better if I had reacted faster. But at that time, my hands were inconvenient..."
After saying this, the two of them noticed that Lord Ruyue's broken arm had returned to its original state. Perhaps it was what happened just now. They moved their eyes to the beautiful creature aside. Was it caused by it?
Lord Ruyue reluctantly showed a smile: "I only knew the legend of Dailuan City's protective bird before, and I believed it existed. However, this is the first time I have seen it. For some reason, it always gives me a kind and familiar feeling.
feeling.”
The divine bird meekly lowered its neck and closed its eyes gently, as if to salute them. The two of them were a little at a loss, but they also bowed to it. Those white fluffs that were as light as snow fell on their bodies, making them feel like
He was no longer so tired. Although his heart was still heavy, his body had become much lighter. The scars and bruises that had previously been touched by the fluff would disappear in the blink of an eye, as if they had never been injured. They expected that this god
Birds must have their own wonderful medical skills.
"I have to stay here to investigate the formations left by the Wuyong clan that have not been destroyed." Lord Ruyue said, "As for the puppets, I'm afraid I can only collect these dust. I have a friend... who is well-informed.
My friend, we may be able to draw some conclusions. But I don’t know where he went.”
It seems that there is always only bad news. No matter what happens, the current situation is similar. If it is said that there is no way to recover, there is still a glimmer of hope; if it is said that there is no end of the road, but no one knows where to go.
"The sacred bird said that it is going to the south. Maybe there is some news there that can help you find the child."
"……good."
They looked to the south, but it was pitch black. But the sky in the east began to whiten, and the moon's light became dimmer. Day after day, dawn is approaching, and the sun will shine on this land again. The peace and comfort that people long for
The only things that are always temporary and eternal are the sun, moon and stars rising and setting in the east, and they are so far away.
Farther away from Dailuan City, there was a person they would meet in the near future, walking on the street.
Her long gray hair was slightly curly, like a layer of undulating ripples. But her appearance was still young, and logically speaking, her hair should not be so withered and discolored. She also walked so vigorously, not really like a senior citizen.
He staggers like an older person.
After waiting for the sky to be completely filled with white, the morning tea stalls were all set up. However, this area was a little deserted. The people who often had morning tea here, except for her, were all regular patrons of the store.
Maybe there is another person.
The person was sitting on the table next to her, wearing a big hat, and her identity could not be identified. But this person also had long hair, but it was longer, thicker, and the color was not that healthy. She was wearing black clothes.
Like the mourning clothes in Dongguo, they even had a left waistband. No one in the stall dared to touch her
Even when he was talking, even the waiter didn't dare to come close. Even when he sat down, the Ruo Li was still on his head and had never been taken off. The man's slender look was like a stick, holding up his hat. The brim of the hat touched the upper part of his face.
Half of the body is tightly covered, but the slightly pointed lower jaw reveals that she must be a woman.
She recognized this woman.
"You are..." She stood up, left the hot morning tea and walked around to the other party's table, "Oh, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
The woman wearing a hat was startled for a moment, then she slowly raised her head and saw the face of the visitor. She was indeed a little surprised, and so was the visitor. She heard the visitor exclaim:
"Ah, is your face... already so serious?"
Dai Ruoli, the woman pressing her left knee finally spoke: "Last time we met, you seemed to be unable to speak."
"Now I know it." She smiled, "I made a wish with the fragments of the wish-fulfilling pearl. You should know this thing, right?"
"...You will bear the curse."
"I know." She didn't seem to care, but continued to ask the dull woman, "But if you are like this... isn't it also a curse? The curse of the Demonic Pestle. I heard that you stole the Yin family during a mission.
The stolen magic weapon."
"Your news is really terrifying. An expert told me that I should go look for the Tianquan Eye. I should have gone a long time ago, but there are always many tasks in Zuojimen and I can't finish them." The woman lowered her voice, "Already.
Spring is deep, it’s time to go into the mountains.”
After saying that, she raised her eyes, revealing a small half of her crystal-clear face.
