Xiaozhu woke up suddenly. She opened her eyes wide, her pupils as warm as amber were filled with water, and her eyelashes like butterfly wings were covered with crystal tears. She looked to her side in confusion, but she could only see mountains and trees.
Shadow, the night is deep, and there is no that most familiar figure.
For some reason, she actually dreamed about the past events of her childhood, dreamed about the small courtyard among the green bamboos, dreamed about the bustling Pingcheng with warm lanterns, dreamed about the enthusiastic and simple Aunt Liu and Yi Xin.
Bai Ze repaid her kindness. From that day on, she and her master left their hometown and came to the inaccessible Qingchuan Mountain. From then on, they lived in isolation without caring about the world.
However, good dreams are easy to awaken, but good times are hard to stay. The four factions of the Demon-Slaying Alliance went to Qingchuan Mountain and forced Master Mo Bai to hand over the most precious treasure in the immortal world - the Yunsheng Mirror. From that moment on, the peaceful and tranquil days were broken again.
Forced into the world's disputes, they experienced bloodshed and all kinds of hardships, but in the end they could not stop the nightmare of Yinglong's birth.
She remembered the roar of thunder, the roaring waves, the collapse of the Seven-Seal Star Pillar, and the ancient god and demon Yinglong's return to the world on the stormy East China Sea coast.
She remembered that the dragon soared over the sea, its roar shook the sky, the angry sea roared, and the heaven and earth trembled. Under the violent wind and rain, the sky-burning wild fire was contained in Yinglong's palm. The blazing fire was faster than lightning and thunder, and it struck everyone directly.
!
She remembered that Master Mo Bai glanced at her silently when facing Ying Long's burning fire that destroyed the world. He used the method of shrinking the earth to send her and Little Snake brother away from the East China Sea, but he stepped out of the magic circle and used his physical body to
Block Yinglong's ultimate move.
She remembered the red flames billowing into the sky, and the white-black figure of the Master, who was instantly swallowed up by the fire. The sky and the earth were vast, and the white waves were billowing. She could no longer see the Master's figure, only the two spiritual lights, one black and one white, scattered in the sky.
Between heaven and earth...
Her heart suffocated, and a stinging pain spread from the bottom of her heart. Pain and sourness filled her chest, making her eyes hot and tears falling. She woke up from the old dream, her mind gradually became clearer, and Xiaozhu finally realized: the person who raised her up.
, the panda master who would tap her forehead with his fingers and call her "girl" with a smile is no longer there...
"Master..."
Sad murmurs and hoarse sobs were blown away by the night wind and scattered in the dark forest. The night was dark, the stars were bright, and the stars in the sky were clearly extinguishing. The starlight reflected the thin figure of the girl, and also reflected the two lines of clear tears.
, falling silently.
This was the third day after Yinglong broke the seal. On that day, Mo Bai used his body as a shield to send Xiaozhu and the seriously injured Gui Haiming away from the East China Sea. Since Mo Bai died on the spot, the "Lan Feng Shen Xing" method of shrinking the earth
Also affected by the fluctuations in spiritual power, Xiaozhu and Gui Haiming were actually transported into the river.
In response to the rebirth of the dragon and the strange phenomenon in the sky, it rained that day like a pouring water. The big raindrops hit the river with a crackling sound. The rainstorm was torrential, the wind and rain were strong, the Weishui River surged, the water flow was rapid, and the river was stirred up.
A high wave came. A big wave came over and smashed Xiaozhu into the bottom of the river. The waves were rolling, and the cold river water poured into her mouth and nose, submerging her whole body. She stretched out her hands desperately and struggled, but the waves opened one after another.
, hit her face hard and threw her into the water!
Maybe...that's it...
At the moment when she was swept into the river bottom by the waves and was floating in the water, this thought suddenly came into Xiaozhu's mind. She was useless and could not protect the master. On the road to the underworld, the master must have been very lonely as he walked alone. There was no one to accompany him.
He was chatting and joking, and there was no one to accompany him to bicker and talk...
Her consciousness gradually drifted away. Just when Xiaozhu gave up her struggle and wanted to follow Mo Bai, through an icy blue water curtain, she saw Gui Haiming not far away, who had fallen silently and was lying quietly.
On top of the mud and sand. In the previous battle with Yinglong, Gui Haiming was too seriously injured. He almost managed to hold on for a breath and used the trick of "death together". He wanted to perish together with Yinglong, but was cracked and severely injured by Yinglong.
.Right now, he was exhausted of all his energy and energy, his internal organs were all exhausted, he fell into a coma, and was driven to the bottom of the river by the heavy rain.
Brother Little Snake!
Xiaozhu gritted her teeth, waved her arms, and swam in the direction of Gui Haiming. She pulled Gui Haiming's arm hard and swam hard toward the river. However, the rainstorm was too fierce and fast.
One after another, the waves hit her hard into the water again and again. Facing the heavy rain and waves, Xiaozhu pulled the unconscious little snake brother and was sunk again and again, but he swam out of the water with all his strength again and again.
Close...close...
When Xiaozhu finally swam to the shore and pushed Gui Haiming onto the river bank, she also exhausted her last bit of strength. Exhausted both physically and mentally, she was unable and unwilling to grab the soil on the river bank, and just let the strong wind
A huge wave hit her, plunging her into the cold river water, and then she slowly fell to the bottom of the river.
At this moment, a strong hand grabbed her wrist and lifted the girl's fallen figure up from the glacier.
She opened her eyes in astonishment, and what she saw through the misty water vapor was a military general wearing a blue shirt and carrying a dark iron heavy sword. He was tall and tall, with a handsome face, a straight back, and a majestic figure. At this time,
He frowned, with a frown on his face, and said coldly:
"Even if you don't care about your own life, you should also cherish the life that Mo Bai bought. If you are buried at the bottom of the river and under the Nine Springs, how can you have the dignity to meet your master?"
This sentence, like a wake-up call, made Xiaozhu tremble all over. She widened her watery eyes. In the field of vision distorted by the water mist, she seemed to have seen the master again, and saw his naive appearance when he turned into a giant panda.
I saw his white clothes and snow-white clothes, his hair like ebony, and his handsome face with a smile on his lips. I saw his decisive look and silent farewell during the bloody battle on the coast of the East China Sea...
Yes, the master died to save them. If she gave up here, how could she have the face to see the master when she was under the Nine Springs? Even the master, who has always been good-tempered, would definitely get angry and kill her.
What a bloody curse.
Thinking of this, Xiaozhu clenched her fists hard, and felt the pain of digging her nails into the flesh of her palms, forcing her tears back. She suppressed the soreness in her heart, raised her fists, gave the general a deep bow, and said in a deep voice:
"Thank you for your advice. I know I was wrong. Xiaozhu is ashamed of Master's teachings."
The general snorted coldly, his eyebrows still furrowed, but his expression softened slightly. Xiaozhu raised his eyes and looked at the man up and down doubtfully: this man's shirt and black iron heavy sword had a faint golden light.
, absolutely extraordinary, unlike anything in the world. What made her even more surprised and suspicious was that this man had a handsome and heroic face, which she had never seen before, but she felt that the man in front of her felt inexplicably familiar:
"From what you said earlier, you should have a close relationship with Master Mo Bai. May I ask your name?"
Facing Xiaozhu's question, the general took off a wine crop from his waist, raised his head and took a sip of wine, then curled his lips and raised a sarcastic arc: "It's quite related? Ha! My name is my last name.
, even if I tell you, what will happen? Little Black and White has been hiding from me for eighteen years, for fear that I will come to collect debts, so how can he talk about the creditor? "
Hearing what he said, Xiaozhu felt unhappy and cut off his words: "Xianjun, Xiaozhu thanks you for saving my life, but please don't talk nonsense. Master Mo Bai taught me the word 'faithfulness' since I was a child. Master, he has always been honest."
, I will never do anything like not paying back my debts or trying to evade debts.”
"Hahaha!" The military general looked up to the sky and laughed, his silence shaking. He took another sip of strong wine, suddenly looked at Xiaozhu, and remained silent for a long time. Xiaozhu felt that his eyes were sharp, as cold as a blade, which made her suddenly wake up.
A chill rose up his spine. He was silent for a moment, then pointed to the jade gourd on Xiaozhu's waist and said lightly: "Bring it here."
Xiaozhu was even more surprised. She turned slightly sideways and covered the gourd in her hands: "I'm sorry, I can't give you this gourd. Although the Immortal Lord has given me life-saving grace, logically I shouldn't refuse your request, but this jade gourd
It was a gift from Master. Master has repeatedly warned me that this gourd should never be left behind. I hope the Immortal Lord will forgive me."
The general raised his lips again, and his smile was mostly sarcastic, but also half helpless and bitter. Xiaozhu was secretly suspicious, but saw the other man raised his head, drank the strong wine in one gulp, and threw the crop of wine into the river.
Just then he said calmly: "The bottom of the gourd should have the word 'Cangming' engraved on it."
Xiaozhu's eyes widened, and she became more and more surprised: She had brought this gourd with her since she was a child, and she knew every pattern and carving very well. On the base of the gourd, there were indeed two large ancient Chinese characters engraved, which were "Cangming". When she was young,
, she also asked the master what the "Cangming" meant and why it was carved here. But the master always smiled and did not answer.
"How did you know?" she blurted out and asked.
The military general stood with his hands behind his back, his back as straight as a proud snowy green pine, and his body as motionless as a mountain. He raised his eyes and looked at the stormy hazy sky, as if he was looking back on the past, or looking at an old friend in the distance. Just listen to his every word,
