"Okay," the beast god smiled faintly, turned around, and the tired look on his face seemed to deepen, and said, "Why are you here? Is it to kill me?"

Gui Li shook his head

The Beast God was startled for a moment, then he laughed and said: "I didn't expect that there are still people who don't want to kill me. I didn't expect that in the past few months, in the words of you humans, I have poisoned the world and catastrophized the people. It is a crime.

I deserve to die, but why don’t you want to kill me?”

Gui Li looked at the beast god silently, and the beast god looked at him. Between the two men, the flame was burning quietly, and it was reflected in their eyes.

"Should I want to kill you?"

"Shouldn't it be?"

Silent for a long time, a long time

"Maybe." A very complicated expression suddenly appeared on Gui Li's face. There was a bit of reminiscence, a bit of pain, and a bit of vague confusion. Facing the most vicious evildoer in the world, he

But he seems to be able to completely let go of his heart, without the indifference and autistic feeling in front of other people.

"It was ten years ago. I would have wholeheartedly wanted to eliminate harm for the common people in the world. Even though I knew I was powerless, I still couldn't take a step back. But now."

The beast god stared at him and asked: "But?"

The confusion on Gui Li's face was heavy, and he said slowly: "I just suddenly felt that all the people in this world have nothing to do with me? My lifelong wish is just to live an ordinary life. I don't want to learn Taoism, I don't want to

I don’t want to cultivate immortality, and I don’t even want to live forever.”

The expression on the Beast God's face suddenly changed. His eyes changed from a faint sneer to a solemn look. There was even a hint of confusion vaguely similar to that of Ghost Li, as if something had touched something deep in his heart.

at

He suddenly said: "Then what do you want?"

Gui Li smiled indifferently and slowly looked up at the sky, but there was only the deep darkness in the ancient cave without a trace of light. He said: "I don't know, sometimes I have thought that maybe I can go back to ten years ago.

, My days on Dazhu Peak? Or maybe, my dream is to simply go back to my childhood, when I didn’t understand anything, but," he gave a low, bitter smile and said, "In the midst of this, right and wrong, grudges and grudges, I

How can we let go and forget?"

The beast god was silent for a moment and said, "Do you regret it?"

Gui Li didn't answer immediately. After a while, he looked at the beast god again, looked at the eyes behind the flames, and shook his head.

The Beast God sneered and said: "From what you can tell, you have had a rough life and a lot of sad past. But this time I ask you, you don't regret it. So what can I say?"

Gui Li said: "I have been through many ups and downs in my life, but I couldn't help it. I wanted to live an ordinary life, but got involved in the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism; I wanted to practice with peace of mind, but I became a demon and evil; I wanted to be sincere to people, but I unexpectedly planted the wrong root of love.

, when I understand who I truly am.”

His face slowly showed a sad look, and he did not say any more after all. After a while, he whispered:

"Regret? How can I regret it? What's the use of regretting it?"

The beast god looked at the man standing there silently. Ten years of time did not seem to have carved many traces of vicissitudes on his face, but his figure standing there looked so tired. The beast god couldn't help but start to imagine.

, that boy ten years ago, what kind of life was he?

There was silence between the two men, as if they were unconsciously caught up in reminiscing about the past.

How much of each person’s life and past events are worth recalling?

Ten years? Hundred years? Thousand years

Or will it slowly pass away in time and pass away silently?

The Beast God thought silently, and the look of tiredness on his face became heavier. His eyes slowly moved towards the entrance of the ancient cave. Across the endless darkness, in a distant place, there was a lonely figure standing there.

?

Such a life, but what kind of life is it?

He suddenly asked Gui Li: "What do you think you are living for?"

"What are you living for?" Gui Li recited it in a low voice. After being silent for a while, he raised his head and said, "I don't know. It's just that my whole life, I seem to be living for others."

The beast god was startled for a moment and said to himself: "I live for others, what about me, who do I live for?"

Gui Li was slightly surprised. He obviously didn't expect the Beast God to say such words. Then, he frowned again. Apparently he recalled what he had just said and felt a little surprised. How could he say such a thing?

After regaining his composure, Gui Li's face returned to calm. It seemed that the weakness that had flashed in that moment had disappeared. It had never existed in him before. He looked deeply at the Beast God and said, "I am here today.

I didn’t come here to kill you.”

The beast god still seemed to be a little absent-minded, thinking about something, and responded lightly, saying: "Oh, then why are you here?"

Gui Li pointed at Taotie lying on the ground next to him and said, "I'm here for it."

The Beast God frowned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but the Taotie on the ground reacted immediately, widening his huge eyes like copper bells, opening his bloody mouth, and roared at Gui Li, and slowly

He stood up slowly, with murderous intent. The three-eyed monkey Xiao Hui seemed a little confused. He slowly left Taotie and ran back to Gui Li's feet. He raised his head and looked at Gui Li. He seemed a little confused by the master's words. But after a while,

, it still climbed onto Gui Li's shoulder, but its three eyes looked towards Taotie from time to time.

The Beast God snorted and said, "That's weird. You didn't come here to kill me, but you came here for this glutton? What do you want it to do?"

Gui Li said calmly: "I don't want it, it's another person who wants it, and for that person, as long as it doesn't go too far, I will help him."

The beast god looked at him for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said, "You owe someone a favor, right?"

Gui Li was silent for a moment and said: "I do owe favors, many, many, so many that I will never be able to pay them back in my lifetime, but this has nothing to do with you." He raised his eyes, solemnly, and slowly stepped forward to look at him.

The figure slowly approached, and the beast god's pupils seemed to shrink slightly.

The flames in the brazier were reflected on Gui Li's face, and the dancing light and shadow trembled at the intersection of darkness and light. The man said calmly: "I have no intention of becoming your enemy, but it seems that this is inevitable."

The beast god sneered "ha" and said: "Do you think you can defeat me with your way of doing things?"

Gui Li said nothing

Didn't stop either

The low footsteps echoed in the empty space, there was no wind, but for some reason, the only flame in this huge stone chamber suddenly began to swing, and the light gradually became stronger

The darkness is like the netherworld, silent and unfathomable. I don’t know how many demons and demons there are, staring at the people in this light in that darkness.

Gui Li walked towards the beast god in the firelight

Suddenly, the flame suddenly rose up, bursting with dazzling light, and the entire flame volume was several times larger than when it was burning peacefully. In the midst of the raging flames, a sound like a dragon's roar seemed to be heard,

Echoed far away

Following the dragon's roar, it seemed that the entire huge stone chamber was trembling. The sound of the dragon's roar rose from low to high, and the echoes from the depths of darkness never weakened, but grew louder and louder.

The higher it went, the more it became a sharp roar. At the end, it was as deafening as a mountain roaring tsunami.

Gui Li stopped, because the flames in front of him had suddenly risen from the brazier, blocking his face, and in the blazing flames, there seemed to be a pair of ferocious eyes.

watching him

The figure of the beast god has disappeared behind the fire, but his calm voice came out clearly from the flames, saying: "This is an ancient inheritance of southern Xinjiang, called the 'Xuanhuo Eight Evils Array'.

If you can defeat him without dying, I will do whatever you want to do."

As soon as he finished speaking, almost at the same time, a roar burst out from the most dazzling part of the flame. The flame trembled and changed violently, and all the land within five feet around it was scorched. It can be imagined that the people near the brazier

hotness

Strong hot wind blew from the front, causing Gui Li's clothes to flutter backwards, but his expression seemed unaffected. Even Xiao Hui, the monkey lying on his shoulder, stared at the blazing flames.

They looked at each other without fear or pain, but their expressions were serious. Everyone knew that this was just the beginning.

The first blood-red fierce god pattern slowly appeared in the sky above the flames. The ferocious face and weird posture were exactly the same as the pattern he saw in the Xuanhuo Altar of Fenxiang Valley. Gui Li stared at that picture.

Image, complex expression slowly appeared on the face

One after another, they lit up one after another, and the blood-red light gradually connected together around the flames, forming a ring shape, surrounding the blazing flame in the center.

When the last blood-red light closed under the flame, suddenly, the entire red halo suddenly shined brightly. The red light surged, and even the flames in it seemed to be suppressed. Everything was burning, an extremely ferocious wave.

Rage will come out of thin air to the depths of the flame in this space, and the pair of vague eyes will also enlarge in an instant

"Roar"

There was a roar that shook the sky, and in an instant the whole stone room shook together. The blazing flames were like a demon dancing wildly, swinging wildly. Deep in the flames, a ferocious beast covered in fire, roaring and looking at the world, appeared.

Red flame monster

The monster that once guarded the Eight Ominous Mysterious Fire Array passed down by the ancient witch clan in the Xuanhuo Altar of Fenxiang Valley appeared again. When Gui Li and Xiaogui faced it for the second time, they couldn't help but change their expressions slightly.

Xiao Hui bared his teeth, lay on Gui Li's shoulder, and roared angrily at the monster.

The huge body of the Red Flame Demonic Beast continued to appear from the huge halo of the Eight Fierce Mysterious Fire Arrays. First, the huge head, then the shoulders, the front feet, and slowly, the body and hind limbs also slowly appeared. With its arrival

, the temperature in the entire stone chamber continued to rise wildly, and Gui Li's clothes even began to turn yellow.

Finally, the last part of the body burning with fire appeared. The huge red flame monster was surrounded by fire. Standing in front of Gui Li and Xiao Hui, Gui Li was only half the height of this fierce monster.

Behind the monster, the strange halo composed of the eight-sided fierce god image sometimes brightens and sometimes flickers, following behind the red flame monster.

It's like a devil, grinning in front of you

Fierce auras came from all directions, and the familiar feeling seemed to begin to boil faintly in the blood. I even vaguely remembered the tragic fight at the Xuanhuo Altar in Fenxiang Valley last time.

Gui Li didn't move, he just stared deeply at the arrogant monster in front of him.
