I studied beheading in a mental institution

one year later.

"Old man, may I ask which direction Qilian Mountain is in?"

In front of the village where the smoke was curling up, a figure wearing a bamboo hat stopped an old man and asked politely.

The old man was wearing coarse linen clothes, his shoulders were bent under the weight of a heavy shoulder pole, and his whole body was tanned. He looked at the strange boy in front of him curiously,

"You young man, where did you come from?"

"I'm from Chang'an."

"Chang'an?" The old man sized him up a few times, "The Qilian Mountains are on the border of the Huns, what are you going to do alone?"

"If you don't do anything, I'll go and have a look."

"It's better not to go to that place, there are spies from the Huns from time to time, be careful!"

The boy smiled, but didn't speak.

"In that direction, if you walk another [-] miles, you will see the mountains." In the end, the old man still pointed out a way.

The young man thanked the old man, lowered the hat on his head a little, and walked straight towards Qilian Mountain.

The old man looked at the young man's leaving back strangely, shook his head, and was about to go home, but suddenly he was taken aback.

"Strange...why is this shoulder pole not heavy anymore?"

He carefully checked the contents of the front and rear baskets, and they were still there, but the pole was pressed on his shoulders, but it didn't have the slightest weight, like a feather.

The old man muttered, still picked up the weightless pole, and hurried home.

Without the weight of the pole, he walked like flying, and he arrived at his home five miles away in a short while. It was not until the moment he stepped into the house that the weight of the pole returned and fell to the ground dullly.

"Hey, what a hell." The old man muttered to himself.

at the same time,

Wuquan, who was several miles away, slowly retracted his index finger in his sleeve.

"The scope of [Dominating the Emperor] has expanded a lot...but it is still far from the Marquis in its heyday." He sighed softly and continued walking towards the Qilian Mountains.

The breeze lifted the veil on the bamboo hat, revealing a boy's face, which was very different from a year ago.

The young man's body grows the fastest, with a different shape every year. In the past year, Wu Quan has traveled all over the world. His skin has turned darker due to the wind and sun, but his head has grown a lot, and he is almost as tall as Lin Lin. Qiye is almost as high.

There was a touch of determination and vicissitudes between his brows, and his eyes were so deep that he didn't look like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy at all.

After walking in the direction pointed by the old man for a while, he saw the stretching Qilian Mountains. After stopping to appreciate it for a while, he set off again and walked straight into the mountains.

It is now spring, and the Qilian Mountains are still as cold as winter. Wu Quan is wearing thin clothes, which are already wet with dew, but he seems not to notice the cold at all. He keeps walking along the rugged mountain road, walking like flying.

Along the way, he drank the dew from the mountains when he was thirsty, picked wild fruits in the forest when he was hungry, and did not use the slightest mental power during the whole process. You will find that under his skin, occasionally there is a touch of red flowing.

Finally, before the sun went down, he reached the top of one of the peaks.

In the twilight of the setting sun, two figures, one blue and one blue, were already sitting on top of the boulder. Seeing him climbing to this point, the corners of their mouths slightly raised.

"You're finally here."

"Brother Qiye?!" Seeing that familiar face, Wu Quan was taken aback for a moment, and then said pleasantly, "You know I'm coming here?"

"A few days ago, I also received a report from the Zhenxie Division from Gongyang Wan, saying that you left from Langjuxu Mountain and headed east. You also said that you would follow the footsteps of Lord Hou, and Lord Hou was defeated. There are not many places for the Huns, so you can guess that you are coming here."

His eyes swept over Wuquan carefully, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes:

"You actually broke through?"

Wu Quan smiled.

"When did you break through?"

"Just a few days ago, on Langjuxu Mountain." Wu Quan looked at the sea of ​​clouds that was gradually surging in the distance, and said slowly, "I have been walking in the world this year, and I have seen a lot of suffering, and I have deep feelings... Before After a few days, I went to the place where Lord Hou used to offer sacrifices to the heavens, and I suddenly felt something in my heart, so I sat there and watched for seven days... When I came back to my senses, I broke the 'heart gate'."

Lin Qiye nodded, "No wonder...".

Although Wuquan's past was bumpy, it was narrow after all. From the Hanshan Orphanage to the fasting house, he always wandered in that corner. Seeing those few people, his mood was naturally not open enough... This year's world The experience can be said to have directly opened up his vision and heart. After accumulation and precipitation, he broke through the "closed" in his heart in one fell swoop in the place where wolves lived in Xuxu.

"It seems that the method of exercising the body that Lord Hou taught you has achieved some success." Lin Qiye looked at the luster on Wuquan's skin and nodded in praise.

"Brother Qiye, you came to find me... Is it because it's time?"

Wu Quan asked tentatively.

"That's right." Lin Qiye's expression was a bit complicated, "Your lifespan is limited, so it's not appropriate to procrastinate any longer... Now that you have broken through the ceiling of human beings, all the karma in this era has come to an end. It's time."

Lin Qiye reached out and wiped his waist, and the Donghuang Bell swelled against the wind, and fell heavily on the top of Qilian Mountain. Mysterious runes flowed on the surface of the bronze bell, exuding an ancient and grand atmosphere.

Wu Quan looked at the ancient clock in front of him, clenched his fists tightly, and looked forward to it.

"Can I finally go back..."

"The Eastern Emperor Bell will suppress your time, so you will not be aware of the passage of time... When the Eastern Emperor Bell rings again, you will automatically unblock it, and then this big game will really begin. "

Wu Quan nodded, he walked to the East Emperor Bell, and looked back at Lin Qiye:

"Brother Qiye, we will meet again in 2000."

"Ah."

Lin Qiye smiled slightly, raised his palm, and the heavy Donghuang Bell emitted a ray of light, covering Wuquan directly, and when the radiance faded, his figure had disappeared.

As Lin Qiye stepped out, the mountain under the Donghuang Bell trembled violently, and a gap opened instantly, and the bell body was stuck in it. Huge stones rolled on the ground, and the gap was completely submerged after a while.

The dust all over the sky gradually settled, and the shadow of the Eastern Emperor Bell was no longer seen on Qilian Mountain.

"2000... Alas." Lin Qiye looked around. Above the sea of ​​clouds, a round of sunset gradually sank into darkness and disappeared without a trace.

"I don't know what will happen here after 2000."

Lin Qiye shook his head, stretched out his hand to hold Jia Lan's palm, and said softly, "Let's go."

"Hmm." A blush appeared on Jia Lan's cheeks, but she didn't resist.

Two figures, one blue and one blue, gradually disappeared into the darkness.
