A white wool blanket is spread on the dark brown wooden table, and the soft velvet is surrounded by solid transparent stones. Incomplete amber is placed on the table in front of you.
Shi Wuqi stared at it with no expression and no words. Some things didn't need to be said, and others could hear them clearly. Xie Zhe, Ling Quan, Han Sheng and Wen Ying were sitting at the table opposite, and no one dared to look at him.
The scented tea on the table was no longer emitting heat, but no one touched the cup.
"Well, actually, I've heard about these things."
His tone was calm. Maybe it was because he had known it for a long time that he seemed calm now.
"us……"
"You have tried your best." Wu Qi interrupted Xie Zhe, "No matter how much you regret what has happened, it will not help. There is still a lot we can do and a lot that can be changed. There is no need to blame yourself, my friend.
After all, I am grateful to you for entrusting me with this important thing. Thank you for your hard work in exploring the entrance of the Eclipse Light Palace."
"..."
Ling Quan could hear the heaviness in these words. They all could hear it.
Han Zhang said: "We were unable to contact Lintian Master, so we had to leave it in your hands. This thing is shocking to us no matter what. We are also...very sorry for passing on this grief to you.
"
"What are you talking about? It doesn't matter!" Wu Qi laughed, "It's the magic weapon that's dangerous to you, right? Anyway, once the news spreads, greedy people and monsters will regard you as targets.
It's even more troublesome. It's indeed too close to the incense burner here, but I'm still with Lin Tian
The teacher has some contacts and can be entrusted to him soon. However... it has been damaged a lot, and a lot of its power has been lost. When it was first broken, it was still effective in completing communication. That's because the silk
This is due to Yunfeng's closed spiritual field. Now, it no longer seems to have such an ability."
"Its power is indeed much weaker. I can feel it..." Wenying said worriedly, "If we had taken it out for treatment at that time, would my brother's eyes not be cured?"
"It seems that the wound can still be healed. Although no one knows what the core of this water bladder is, but if it has not been destroyed, it should still be..."
With that said, Shi Wuqi opened the drawer in front of him and took out a small, sharp bone knife. He neatly opened his arm, and red blood immediately overflowed. This scene shocked them. But then, aside,
The amber gave off the familiar blue light. The same luster overflowed from his wound, which healed quickly. Only a drop of blood that had fallen penetrated the white blanket, leaving an indelible mark.
of red.
"It seems that ordinary people can't always rely on the power of magic weapons." Hanshang added.
"That's right. No matter which one they are, they can't be regarded as human beings. Using them will inevitably increase the burden on the body. This kind of erosion is invisible. To be more serious, it may damage the soul."
"this……"
They were silent for a while. Wenying picked up the scented tea in front of her, took a sip and put it back, as if she had nothing to do. Suddenly, Han Yang stood up and walked towards Shi Wuqi.
Go and remove the dagger from your waist.
"There's something..."
Shi Wuqi spoke directly for him: "You want to return this sword, right?"
"..."
Han Shang moved his lips slightly, but didn't say anything. He just nodded lightly. Xie Zhe and Ling Huan were somewhat surprised. He never mentioned this matter on the way here. Only Wen Ying knew her well enough.
My elder brother has a much calmer appearance.
Shi Wuqi didn't look at the dagger, but stared at Han Shang with his only remaining eye.
"I know you have too heavy a burden - indeed, this sword carries many so-called faults belonging to you, but that is just the sin you think you have. Could it be that if you give it back to me, you will never be able to do it again?
Do you feel guilty? I'm afraid you are oversimplifying things. If so, stop our communication.
It will make you feel better. For the sake of our friendship, I won't pursue what you have been doing for so long. Moreover, I don't mind taking over this heavy burden with my own hands - think about it, I
You still have to share another share with Lintian Master. But are you really sure that this is what you want?"
"I can't face it." Han Chang said frankly and tiredly,
"Whenever I see it, I remember... I can't have peace even in my dreams."
Her blood, his tears, none of that happened in a dream.
"I no longer have the will to fight - I can no longer get it out of its sheath in its proper form. Regarding the eyes... I will pay for it."
"You don't understand what I mean."
Shi Wuqi shook his head again. He gently pushed back the sword that was placed on the table, and said:
"I have also lost a lot of things - well, although this friend is something I have never thought about. Or, I have thought about it, but I thought I could accept it. Although it is true, it is accepted... quite quickly? Maybe
I have experienced so many life and death separations that I feel a little numb? This sounds really sad. In fact, I am alone.
The time in hell may be longer than in the human world, and it is precisely because of these interactions in the human world that everything seems so prosperous and so slow. I do not accept the suspension of this contract, because it is not yet time. To be honest,
From the smoke of the incense burner, I saw the reflection of the future again. You will still need it, so it cannot be now."
Hanshang didn't feel too much regret. Perhaps he knew deep down in his heart that doing so could not change what had happened. He knew even better that all these actions were some kind of escape. Along the way, so did his friends.
After finally getting out of the shadows, he cheered up and kept encouraging him. He didn't want to live up to his friends' expectations, but there were some things he could do without wanting to.
Okay! He grabbed the sword helplessly and withdrew silently. After that, no matter how he drew the sword, it would only be in the form of a dagger. Since the Lord of Bones still didn't accept it, he could only continue.
Accept it. Even though it is always so hot, every time you touch it, your hands will blister. Should he be so afraid?
"Speaking of eyes..."
Shi Wuqi opened the box on the other side and grabbed something from it. Several people came over to take a look and found that it was a broken gem. The cracks on it were very deep, and it seemed that it could be completely destroyed with just a pinch, making it impossible to put it together again.
They went together. But because it was not completely broken into slag or powder, they could still identify that it was once a beautiful cat's eye stone.
"It broke to pieces the day you killed Two Tongues."
"Is that so..."
"You are really powerful." He put the gem back and continued, "The evil angel is really no match for you, which is really surprising. You will remind me of my past... How nostalgic.
.I just said dryly that I understand how you feel. It may not be convincing, but I have actually experienced similar things. I feel sad, confused, and sad.
It is normal to feel pain and doubt, and there is no need to blame yourself. The important thing is that your friends have never blamed each other. Isn’t this a valuable thing? How many people have ended up at odds because of two sentences?
There are so many people who have deep hatred and hatred and draw swords against each other because of the short-term interests at hand. Deception and betrayal are what happen in the world. You are already extraordinary enough."
"...I don't want to be so extraordinary."
It was Ling Huan who said this. She probably had a lot more to say, but in the end she only said this.
But it was enough. This murmur that was almost a complaint was enough for everyone present to understand what she wanted to express. Xie Ze knew what she really thought in her heart. Even if she had never really complained about anything, he also knew that Ling Quan
I accuse myself all the time. From the beginning, I think things are too simple.
But looking for family is obviously just the simplest wish, isn't it?
"Well - something good happened." Wu Qi broke the stagnant atmosphere and said: "Master Lintian will come to take away the magic weapon soon. And... I have new news to tell you. I also know that you
Will come."
"What's the matter?" Xie Zhe asked.
"About the evil messenger of lies, there is nothing wrong with it."
Hearing this name, several people's hearts sank. But since the Hundred Skeleton Masters said it was good news, it should...
"Don't be too nervous. You should remember that there is a woman named Shen Wenzheng? She has been investigating Wuyonglan's whereabouts."
"Shen, Mrs. Shen?"
"That's right. It's not just her. There are many people within the Wuyong clan who fight against lies, so there are also many hired assassins, spies, and onmyojis. When you are fighting against the other ten evils, this group should not be underestimated.
With the strength, we have also made some achievements. Judging from the results...should I say they are gratifying?"
The four of them thought this was really incredible. In the few times they had contact with Wuyonglan, although he was not invincible, he was difficult enough to deal with and could not be eradicated. Like an annoying flea, you can't see it but can't catch it.
But you know very well that it is lurking somewhere, ready to suck your blood at any time.
"Is she, is she okay?"
Ling Huan is more worried about Mrs. Shen's personal safety than anything else.
"She participated in a sabotage operation, but managed to escape unscathed. I don't think she would have taken the job if it was fatally dangerous. She also has a daughter to raise. When you didn't know, she made dozens of lies.
The puppet workshops were all destroyed and put into a state of inoperability. I also heard from the monsters that infiltration wasted a lot of effort. Some of it was robbery, and some of it was outsmarting. This
Such work is carried out almost at the same time, so even if he has actionable clones in many places, he may not be able to do all the work. Although the puppets that have been made are still used by him, there will be no new ones in a short time.
The threat. And considering that he will gather his remaining troops, the warehouses and transportation channels are also controlled by the senators. More information... Are you interested in hearing it? "
