Laughing at Chang'an

Li Shen lying in the coffin had not had time to close his eyes when, according to Xue Bailang, the most ferocious avalanche he had ever experienced since he came here for more than a year.

"Hey...hey, are you still alive?"

After the end of the collapse, Xue Bailang called Li Shen weakly, but the coffin next to him was silent, which made him a little worried.After about a few minutes, he suddenly heard a moan similar to a cat's spring.

Xue Bailang's brain was disconnected for three seconds.

Li Shen's voice sounded slowly: "...so cool."

The body is drawn into the avalanche, just like being pierced by thousands of needles, pierced into a sieve, and then countless corrosive liquids pass through the pierced holes. This pain comparable to torture can make most people lose consciousness. Even died of pain.Xue Bailang remembered that when he encountered collapse for the first time, he also fell into a coma for half a day, almost crying for his father and mother.

So he was stunned for a while, and asked Li Shen seriously: "Are you a pervert? A masochist?"

Slowly stretched out a straight middle finger from Li Shen's coffin.

"It feels like taking a hot bath." Li Shencheng expressed his feelings and said with emotion, "Ah, I really want to do it again, but it's not fun..."

Before Xue Bailang had time to complain, he felt a very familiar movement on the top of his head, and he raised his head dumbfounded——

I saw a big wave of avalanche coming.

"I beep you crow's mouth!" Xue Bailang wanted to cry but had no tears, even he had never experienced such continuous avalanches, he could only open his weak eyes and be drowned by the turbulent energy sweeping in front of him.

Unlike Xue Bailang who was being tortured, Li Shen felt like a baby soaking in the warm amniotic fluid of the mother's body. The coldness all over his body due to the loss of vitality was dispelled, and the surging avalanche gently massaged his limbs, which was an unprecedented comfort feel.He closed his eyes comfortably and fell asleep in this comfortable and warm wave.

Li Shen was sitting on a high hillside, with green grass and cattle and sheep grazing in the distance, the sky was high and blue, and the air was sober.Someone beside him was lying on the grass with his arms propped up, humming a tune out of tune.

"The sky is dark, the wild is vast, the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low..."

The person who hummed the song had short golden hair, and his face had a very exotic look, with deep outlines, a high nose, and shiny black eyes.He lay lazily on the grass, looked at Li Shen with a smile on his face, and asked him what he was thinking.

Li Shen said that I must be dreaming.

The person beside him raised his hand and scratched Li Shen's nose with a blade of grass, turned over with a smile, and lay on his back with his arms outstretched.Li Shen hesitated and turned his head to look at him, but saw that the man had his eyes closed, a smile on his lips, and a relaxed and relieved expression.

"It's a dream." Geng Yan murmured.

Li Shen suddenly felt a little sad, looked away, and stood up.The endless green grassland stretches as far as the eye can see, the wind blows the swaying blades of grass, passing by his pitch-black hair...

He turned away.

Step by step, I walked out of this dream.

Opening his eyes, he saw the light coming in through the cracks in the coffin boards. Li Shen called Xue Bailang, but there was no response.

There was a distance of half a meter between the two coffins. Li Shen stretched out his arms, pressed on the gap above the other's coffin, and knocked on the edge. After a long while, he slowly retracted his hand and lay down quietly.

The next day, the collapse came again.Day three and day four, same.

Xue Bailang, who was on the verge of collapse, gambled with his ass that it was definitely related to Li Shen. Before the other party came, the most frequent collapse was once every half a month. After the other party came, he would never be late every day, and sometimes even Also twice a day.

If this continues, he feels that he is not dead, and his spirit is probably going to collapse first.

Li Shen was very confused.

Collapsing flow is an abnormal weather at the edge of Fanglu. It is the energy turbulence caused by the invasion of alien energy from the outside world. He is not even a Tianmen now. How can He De make such a big commotion?Facing the big hat that Xue Bailang put down, he felt a little wronged.

"You say I'm like a catastrophe." Li Shen complained, and as soon as the words came out, he was stunned.is not that right?Those who were close to him died because of him, and he was the one who brought disaster... an out-and-out disaster star.

"I don't know if it's a disaster or not, anyway, I'm going to be killed by this collapse." Xue Bailang replied weakly.

Li Shen smiled.

"You haven't died after lying here for more than a year, I think it's better to forget it." He smiled, "Go down the mountain, no one will stop you, find a place to live well... Sorry, I used to be too cruel, Otherwise, you can leave something behind."

Xue Bailang said angrily: "Get out, my whole body is rotten, what are you doing alive?"

"Medical science is so advanced now..." Li Shen fell silent halfway, not because he was sad, but because he was suffering again.

If you close your eyes, you can see colorful hallucinations, and the whole world turns into a colorful halo, but it doesn't make people feel dizzy. On the contrary, there is a desire to be intoxicated.Li Shen floated in this gorgeous sea of ​​light, closed his eyes and listened to the dancing notes in the distance, unknowingly fell into sleep again.

This time, he saw a tall throne.There was a man sitting on the throne with his head bowed, his face covered by a gorgeous royal robe. A long black knife pierced through the man's chest and was firmly nailed to the back of the chair.

Li Shen walked up the steps and grabbed the handle of the knife.He is no stranger to this knife, it was given to him by Geng Yan and worn by him.

——The name of the knife is in pairs.

He let go of the handle of the knife, and lifted the brocade robe covering the head of the man on the throne.

Bones, skeletons.

"Hahahahahaha…………"

It was a light laugh at first, and then a wild laugh. Li Shen laughed wildly and raised his head, pulling out the long knife nailed to the opponent's chest.Then everything began to fall apart, and the whole dream shattered with his laughter.

On the sixth day, Li Shen went crazy from hunger.

Cultivators are supported by internal energy. Although they will feel hungry, they are much weaker than ordinary people.A strong immortal like Xue Bailang can still live without eating or drinking for more than a year, but Li Shen can't... Not only has his cultivation base been exhausted, but there is also a strange energy in his body that feeds on his vitality. In order to survive, we must ingest food and obtain energy from it.

If it weren't for the frequent collapses that greatly alleviated the deterioration of his body, he might have died.

"...I want to eat the crane stew from Fenqinlou, vegetarian noodles in red soup, emerald gold buns, and roast suckling pig..."

"you shut up."

"It's okay to compress the rations... I can eat grass roots and bark..."

"You might as well chew on the coffin board."

"The groove...can't be bitten."

Hunger tortures people, and it is more terrifying than death. Li Shen has never experienced what it feels like to be starved to death in his life, and this is the most common dilemma most ordinary people face.Practitioners like them have no cultivation, so they can know the weakness and powerlessness of ordinary people, and experience the taste of hunger. This is no easier than facing death on the battlefield.

Human beings are forgetful creatures. After gaining power, very few people can still remember their weakness when they were weak, so they can't understand the feelings of weak people. They treat them as ants and trample on them with peace of mind.That's why Yang Huxing's ideals were ridiculed by the people of Chang'an, and they were not recognized and understood.

Li Shen opened his eyes in vain, feeling the feeling of being starved to death.Then he saw a wolf.

An old, skinny... starving wolf.

The wolf squatted right in front of his coffin, the fur on his body was so bald, his head drooped listlessly, squatting there, looking at Li Shen who was lying in the coffin.

Li Shen couldn't see his own eyes, so he didn't know what kind of hot gaze burst out of them.

He stared at the wolf intently, and whispered to Xue Bailang beside him: "Hey, there are wolves."

"……What?"

"Look ahead, there is a wolf outside."

Under the influence of the avalanche, Dongji Cliff is a complete barren land, with no grass growing and no living beings.Why did this wolf appear here, and how did it appear here... Li Shen had no time to think about these things.

Xue Bailang in the coffin next to him was silent for a moment, and said, "What do you want to do?"

Li Shen said without hesitation, "Of course I ate it."

Xue Bailang was silent for another moment, and then said 'oh', and then did not continue.

Li Shen's mind was thinking quickly about how to eat this wolf. First, he had to catch it. It was outside and he was inside the coffin. The movement of opening the coffin would definitely alarm it. If it ran away, Li Shen I guess I probably don't have the strength to chase after him.But without getting out of the coffin, he had no suitable weapon in his hands, nor was he strong enough to stone it to death.

Li Shen fell into a predicament of anxiety, his almost crazy hunger was urging him to rush out and kill the wolf, but his rationality told him that it would be futile to do so.

In the end, he had no choice but to ask Xue Bailang for help. Xue Bailang is a fairy road, even if he has been lying here for more than a year and is extremely weak, killing this wolf is just a matter of moving his fingers.

"No." Xue Bailang refused, "If you want to eat, do it yourself, don't look for me."

Li Shen knew that the relationship between them was not so friendly. It was him who caused Xue Bailang to wait here to die. It was only normal for Xue Bailang to refuse to help him.So he didn't make any more pleas, but stared at the wolf stubbornly and fiercely quietly, without blinking, staring at it firmly.

The avalanche came again, Li Shen didn't close his eyes, he was looking forward to it, hoping that the wolf would pass out or die in the avalanche, so that he could eat it without any effort.But to his disappointment, the wolf survived Bengliu, squatted motionless on the spot, and looked at him with dim animal eyes.

On the seventh day, Li Shen became weaker, and so did the wolf.

On the eighth day, Li Shen lost the strength to speak.

On the ninth day, the wolf died.

Li Shen's line of sight had lost focus, and it took him a long time to react. Weak, surprised, and unbelievable, he looked at the wolf lying on the ground.

He pushed open the coffin lid with all his strength, crawled towards the wolf with hands and feet, stretched out his hand vigilantly, and touched its head.The moment before his palm touched the gray fur, he suddenly stopped and looked back as if aware of it.

The gray-clothed man who appeared at an unknown time stood beside Xue Bailang's coffin, and pulled up the coffin lid that revealed a foot-long gap, and buckled it.The man in gray who couldn't see his face turned his head to Li Shen, and said indifferently, "He's dead."

The wolf is dead.

Xue Bailang is dead.
