Du Yu originally wanted to follow the rules and queue up to enter the venue honestly.
Unfortunately, things didn't work out as he wished. Since the road to the Cultural Center was unreachable, he went to the office building next door that was not open to the public.
Du Yu had walked this road once before, on the day Lei Zhu returned home, and it was the person in charge of Zhu Musen who personally took him there.
Also under the watchful eyes of countless tourists, Du Yu negotiated with the guard at the door and was let inside the building, leading directly to the underground research institute.
"No wonder so many people like privileges." Du Yu muttered in his heart, and the journey was smooth.
This time I came back to Zhumusen and it was completely different than before.
Du Yu could feel that both the staff in the research institute and the soldiers stationed in the army had special respect for him.
Du Yu was deeply touched by the true feelings overflowing from his eyes.
The meaning of controlling demons to Du Yu has always been relatively simple.
In the beginning, it was for survival, for a meal and a bed, for survival.
Later, the purpose of controlling the demon was for the bond, for the demon pets, and for the people around me.
To this day, the faces full of reverence and the blazing eyes that Du Yu met on the way seemed to have given Du Yu a new meaning of controlling monsters.
"Click."
The heavy metal door slowly opened, and a soldier's voice came from the side: "Mr. Du, I wish you a pleasant journey."
"Thank you." Du Yu nodded, smiled, and walked out of the "subway station entrance."
The fragrant smell of vegetation blows towards your face, refreshing your heart and mind.
Du Yu subconsciously looked to the right and saw a familiar figure under a cluster of bamboo trees.
She was still standing there, standing in front of the bamboo forest, the same as before.
It's like she has never moved anywhere.
Before coming to Zhumusen, of course he said hello to Xu Yihai.
Xu Yihai knew it, and Hongye naturally knew it too.
"Red leaves!" Du Yu held the butter carton in his left hand and waved his right hand.
The 2-meter-tall red leaf bear is similar to the ordinary chi bear. The only difference is that it wears a hat woven with red bamboo leaves on its head.
Others have no idea that this seemingly ordinary Chi Xiong is already a demon emperor!
Demon Emperor
The highest peak that the Chixiong clan can reach.
"Hey~" Hongye walked over, his eyes full of surprise.
Du Yu was a little surprised. Since she knew she would come in advance, why was she surprised?
Moreover, she was more than three months late, wasn't she unhappy?
Hongye had already been promoted to Demon Emperor as early as mid-April. Since he had been in seclusion, the human soldiers and horses were only a belated follower.
By the time Xu Yihai informed Du Yu, it was already late April, but unfortunately, Du Yu never heard back.
"Congratulations, you have become the Demon Emperor." Du Yu stretched out his hand and pressed her furry, round belly.
"You're back." As the evil spirit enveloped Du Yu's body, a familiar voice unique to Hongye entered his mind.
She is still as gentle as ever.
But there seemed to be a hint of trembling in the gentle voice.
"I brought you steamed cakes, which are delicious." Du Yu opened the butter carton and handed it over.
There were originally six pastries, but now only four are left.
Hongye calmed down, tried hard to look away from Du Yu, and looked down at the pastry in the image of Chi Xiong.
I eat myself?
Du Yu, however, got it wrong and explained: "I saw our story just now when I was queuing up at the cultural center."
"our story?"
"Yes." Du Yu nodded, "It's the story of how Qingshi and I returned the Tai Sui Thunder Bamboo, and we planted bamboo together and established a new tribe."
Hearing this, Hongye also had a trace of memories in his eyes.
Du Yu chuckled: "Zhu Musen erected bronze statues for me and Qingshi, and there is also a statue of you among them."
Hongye was delighted, obviously unaware of the changes in the Human Culture Museum: "Is there me too?"
"Yes." Du Yu picked up a piece of steamed cake and handed it to her mouth, "There is a bronze statue of you there, and I am sitting in your hand.
Do you still remember?
At that time, when I returned to Zhumusen, you became so big that you lifted me up."
"Hey~" Hongye nodded slightly, his eyes full of smiles.
Therefore, in the human exhibition hall, my master and I have been together.
"Here." Du Yu picked up the steamed cake and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Baji~baji~"
Facts have once again proved that Du Yu doesn’t hate chirping while eating, but hates people who chirp.
Eating steamed cake with red leaves "bah bah bah" sounds delicious~
Du Yu raised his eyes and looked at the red leaves: "When I saw those bronze statues, I was very excited, so I rewarded myself with one."
Hongye looked at the empty groove in the box curiously: "What about the other piece?"
"Don't mention it." Du Yu grinned, "I shouldn't have waited in line for that little girl for a long time in vain! Let me tell you."
In the camera at the door, one person and one Chixiong gradually walked out of the screen and walked towards the bamboo forest in the distance.
Passing by patches of bamboo forest, all the steamed cakes were eaten.
Du Yu looked at the red leaves beside him and asked, "Don't you blame me for coming so late?"
Hongye shook his head: "It would be great if you could come back."
return?
This is the second time Du Yu heard this word.
If he had no reaction the first time, then this second time was enough to attract Du Yu's attention.
The thought conveyed by red leaves is "come back", not "come".
Even though Du Yu is different from other people in the world and has his own bamboo garden in the bamboo forest, the alien land of bamboo forest is not Du Yu's home.
Therefore, the word "come back".
Du Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you know where I went?"
Hongye turned his head and looked at Du Yu with lowered eyes: "How are you, Master Qing?"
Du Yu's breathing stagnated slightly: "She is okay, you know?"
Hongye sighed softly: "I once thought about why you didn't come to see me. You are not a person who will break your promise.
I asked the human race to call you again and again, but I have been unable to contact you.
Later, I went to Leichi several times to seek an answer, but I was driven away by Elder Yinsuo.
Later, I sat at the door of the cave. Perhaps seeing my stubbornness, Elder Yinsuo was finally willing to speak."
Du Yu: "What did Yin Suo say?"
Hongye: "The elder said that you and Qingshi went to a very, very far place.
So far that it tears apart the barrier of space, so far that it breaks the order of time."
Du Yu:!!!
He looked up at the red leaves and said in a trembling voice: "What else did the elder say?"
Hongye lowered his eyes: "The elder also said that there are thousands of possibilities for the fate of you and Qingshi.
And in every possibility, your life and death are only a matter of a thought."
Du Yu opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Hongye's bear paws had already reached out, wrapped around Du Yu's body, and hugged him into a furry, soft embrace.
It's just that her hug seems to be very careful.
After just 2 or 3 seconds, Hongye let go of Du Yu: "Hongye is rude."
It could be seen that she was trying her best to suppress her emotions.
Hongye's condition has been very stable since they met, but when it came to this, she still couldn't hold it back.
"It's okay." Du Yu patted Hong Ye's arm, "Don't be too strict with yourself.
God has given you a clan of super high wisdom, and also given you complex emotions. You should obey the laws of nature instead of wronging yourself."
"Hmm." Hongye responded softly.
Du Yu said softly: "Can I meet Elder Yinsuo?"
Hongye: "We are on the way to Bamboo Shadow Thunder Pond."
"Oh?" Du Yu looked around and realized that this was not the direction leading to the Red Bamboo Courtyard. "Elder, do you want to see me?"
Hongye nodded gently.
Du Yu: "Did the elder say what happened?"
Hongye shook his head: "According to the elders in the clan, Elder Yinsuo was originally a cheerful and lively Thunder Bamboo Chixiong.
But ever since he stepped into the Bamboo Shadow Thunder Pond, the elder was unwilling to speak.
Every word and every sentence of the elder was carefully considered and carefully considered before being spoken."
"Yeah" Du Yu nodded silently.
Indeed, in the message that Elder Yinsuo told Hongye, the ending between himself and Qingshi was open-ended.
Among all the words of the elder, there is only one definite conclusion: traveling through time and space.
"Master." Hongye looked at Du Yu, "Where have you been?"
Du Yu was silent for a long time, then said softly: "I went to another world to control demons, a world controlled by the tree of coldness."
Hongye's eyes widened: "The Cold Tree invaded our home?"
"Yeah." Du Yu looked solemn and nodded.
I added another sentence in my mind: And in that world, your Chixiong clan was the first group to be exterminated.
A bear paw fell on Du Yu's shoulder, and Hong Ye's mind was particularly heavy: "Will that be the future of our world?"
"No." Du Yu subconsciously spoke to reassure him.
But then, he looked at the Demon Emperor Hongye in front of him and said slowly: "I hope not."
Hong Ye’s eyes were complicated and she remained silent for a long time.
One person and one bear walked through the mountains and ridges, heading west until they came to a familiar purple bamboo forest.
When the four huge Thunder Bamboo Chi Bears saw Du Yu's figure, they immediately came up to him and led Du Yu into the cave.
Hongye stopped at the entrance of the cave, watching Du Yu's figure disappear into the cave.
"ZiZi~ZiZi~"
The sound of the fine current became more and more harsh, and Du Yu was already familiar with the road. He walked out of the tunnel and came to the front of the thunder pond.
The bright arc of electricity illuminated the entire cave.
The dense currents on the lake are frightening to see.
Slowly, a bear head emerged from the thunder pool, and then, a huge demonic spirit enveloped Du Yu.
The pure energy body was like a huge palm, wrapping Du Yu in it.
Du Yu: "I thought Bamboo Shadow Leichi wouldn't welcome me."
Yinsuo's voice was a bit vicissitudes of life: "Human race, welcome home."
A few simple words made Du Yu's emotions surge.
The journey to the Ashes Continent is very painful, so painful that wherever you look, there is despair.
And when he and Qingshi completed the ground-breaking feat for Daxia, they returned to their hometown, and only those close to them hugged them.
The nature of the mission destined that Du Yu's ashes journey would not be known to the world.
He never thought that besides a few people around him, there was a living being waiting silently in this world and offering his most heartfelt words.
Du Yu smiled: "Thank you."
Yinsuo: "Yinsuo calculated thousands of possibilities, and you found the best one."
Du Yu's smile became a little bitter: "You must have seen the suffering of the young master. Tell me, is this the best?"
Yinsuo nodded slightly: "Yes. And you are not the master of your own destiny."
Du Yu: "Huh?"
Yinsuo: "You can come back only in the blink of an eye in the Youhan Tree."
Hearing these words, Du Yu's heart trembled violently.
I thought that I could survive because of the "one thought" between the two, because of every thought and decision made by me and Qingshi.
Yes, indeed there is.
But there is still "one thought", which comes from the cold tree.
If there had been a single change in the cold tree in the bottomless abyss, Du Yu would have disappeared.
There are no more young masters living in the cold beast base camp.
nothing left.
Yinsuo: "In some possibilities, I see the rise of the Golden Crow Supreme Saint."
Du Yu was shocked: "Ah?"
Yin Suo: "You found the holy body of the Golden Crow. At that moment, I saw the blazing sun."
"Gudu." Du Yu's Adam's apple squirmed and he looked at Yinsuo blankly, "What do you mean?
The reason why the Burning Yang Golden Crow cannot reshape her physical body is because her physical body is still there?
In the abyss?!"
Yin Suo was talking to himself: "When the light rises, all living beings fall."
Du Yu: ".What?"
Yin Suo murmured: "The dragon turned into water and was burned and evaporated.
The thunder cow fled far away and finally became the body of a cold beast.
Crazy axes, broken bell towers, broken arrows.
The lynx submerged in the light, the torch, the white deer pierced by the cold branches, and the chi bear.
There is also the fire fox who accompanies him to death in the arms of a small human race."
Every word Yinsuo said was like a knife, drilling into Du Yu's heart, making his body tremble slightly.
In just a few words, Yinsuo sketched a picture for Du Yu.
A picture that was far beyond Du Yu's ability to bear.
"Human race." Yinsuo looked at Du Yu from a distance, "You have found a way out, a calm and rational way out."
Du Yu lowered his head silently.
After a long while, he said in a trembling voice: "Is this what I can hear?"
Silverso: "This is something that could have happened in the past."
"Heh." Du Yu's smile was a little bitter, but also a little free and easy, "Isn't it possible that it will happen in the future?"
Hearing this, Yinsuo fell silent.
After a long time, Yinsuo responded: "What I am communicating with you at this moment is what is happening."
Du Yu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.
"Come on, Terran."
"Um?"
Yinsuo: "Enter the thunder pool."
Du Yu looked at the silver cord intertwined with current: "Is it going to give me another revelation?"
"Maybe." Yin Suo turned his head slightly and looked to the rear right.
Du Yu turned his eyes and looked far away.
Only then did he discover that there was a battle ax standing quietly in front of the stone wall in the distance.
It is made entirely of red bamboo wood. The ax handle is about 2 meters long. The tomahawk head is extremely wide, measuring more than one meter.
Too much axe?
Almost the same style!
Du Yu turned to look at Yinsuo and said word by word, "What did you see again?"
Half of Yinsuo's body emerged from the thunder pool: "I saw the Chixiong clan."
Du Yu: "Chi Xiong?"
Suddenly, one huge bear head after another slowly emerged from the thunder pond.
Du Yu's eyes widened slightly. The bamboo hats worn on the heads of these four chi bears were of different colors.
Red bamboo leaves, blue bamboo leaves, white bamboo leaves, earthy brown bamboo leaves.
Each color of bamboo leaves naturally represents different attributes: red fire, blue water, white wind, and brown earth.
Plus the purple bamboo leaf hat on the head of Thunder Bamboo Chi Bear Silver Suo.
Are the five Chixiong elders gathered in Zhumu Forest?
"Human race, you asked me what I saw." Yin Suo Xiong's paw pointed at the thunder pool and invited Du Yu to enter:
"I see. Our future."
