Thousand Lantern Night

Zhang Qiling received my knife, the scar on his palm was deep enough to show the bone, and his hand was bleeding all of a sudden.However, he didn't have time to take care of the wound, he jumped up and rushed towards me, spilling blood all over my face in an instant.Zhang Qiling used two-handed grabbing technique on me, the intention was to grab the knife, if it was my original skill, I couldn't dodge it at all.However, after Wang Zanghai's spirit body forcibly occupied my body, I suddenly became more agile than ever before.

All Zhang Qiling's movements seemed to be slowed down dozens of times in my line of sight, and his reaction was so sensitive that I suddenly seemed to have Zhang Yinzhen's special function: being able to predict the direction and strength of his attack in advance.The direct result of this is that when Zhang Qiling rushed over, I simply sent out a knife.An extremely precise knife!

That movement was completely out of my control, so I could only yell in horror: "Get out of here!" Watching Heijin penetrate Zhang Qiling's abdomen just like that!Before Zhang Qiling could react, I had already drawn my knife and kicked him sideways, kicked him in the chest, and kicked him flying sideways.

Zhang Qiling fell heavily to the ground.After falling to the ground, he didn't get up immediately, and curled up for a while.Then I used one hand to support the pierced wound, and the other hand to the ground, half-kneeling staggeringly, looking up at me.There was a big puddle of blood at the corner of his mouth, and he tried his best to suppress his cough, fearing that his internal organs were all broken.

And I stood in front of him with a knife in my hand like a god, looking at him with a sneer.

Actually, I should be happy, shouldn't I?These people, each of them uphold their own standards, they clearly know that I am not the same as them, but they still use me.Maybe they refused to tell me the truth, definitely not because they were afraid that I would be sad, but because they were afraid that they would not be able to control me.And most of the time, I myself was so weak that I couldn't help it. Now that I can finally reverse the situation and control their life, death and freedom, shouldn't I feel proud and arrogant?

However, I couldn't control my body, but I didn't know why in my heart, and I was so sad that I was about to collapse.Seeing Zhang Qiling like this, thinking that I will kill everyone here with my own hands, I wish I could stab myself in the body.

The hand that was holding the knife tightly trembled violently uncontrollably. It was my inner resistance to be at the mercy of Wang Zanghai's spirit body, and I tried my best to break free from the restraint.If killing myself with black gold can also destroy this spirit body, I will kill myself without hesitation.The cold spiritual body in the body is like a bound beast, rushing into my thoughts wantonly.The tiger's mouth, which I desperately held on to the handle of the knife, burst into several openings, and the blood flowed down the blade, and fell into the white smoke on the ground drop by drop, making that tiny ripple sound.

I had a sinister sneer on my face, but my eyes were sore and sore, and my eyes were red when I looked at Zhang Qiling.With my own voice, I burst out the words word by word through the teeth: "Zhang Qiling, you, go! Go!"

Zhang Qiling stood up slowly while clutching his abdomen, and his tone of voice was a little weak: "Wu Xie."

I was surprised to hear Zhang Qiling call out this name again, because the person he was facing was me.And he clearly knew that I was not Wu Xie, I was just a stone monster who happened to steal Wu Xie's memory.Could it be that Zhang Qiling lost too much blood and his mind is not clear?

Zhang Qiling seemed to see my surprise, and shook his head at me: "Don't be controlled by it. You do not have a spirit body, but you are not without your own consciousness. Regardless of whether it is your wish to become Wu Xie, the fact is that you I got the best part of Wu Xie——Wu Xie, who is always considerate of others and can't see people's ulterior motives, the most innocent and kind part. You may not be human, but you have kindness and tolerance that are difficult for human beings to hold. So , don't be controlled by it, don't be, monster."

I stared blankly at Zhang Qiling.He wiped the corner of his mouth with the back of his bloody hand, but only half of his face turned red.He walked towards me step by step, cautiously, vigilantly, and slowly stretched out his hand to hold down my hand holding the knife.His eyes were always looking at me, and under the green light of the ghost seal, I saw my hideous shadow reflected in his pupils.

That feeling of seeing yourself in someone else's eyes, like being expected.

The handle of the knife slowly came off in my palm, little by little, and was pulled away by Zhang Qiling.

Suddenly, the whole space shook violently.As if I woke up suddenly from a dream, I subconsciously clenched the handle of the knife, raised my hand to block it, opened my spirit, and slashed horizontally in the chest.I didn't care whether Zhang Qiling was dead or disabled, and suddenly turned to the source of the space turbulence - the fetal sac.

As I expected, Peter and Evans repeated their tricks and carved a hole in the fetal sac, and a black, smelly liquid leaked out from it, and at the same time, a warm air leaked out.The fetal sac seemed to be very uncomfortable, constantly twisting and contracting.There seemed to be a huge living creature wrapped in it, struggling violently, as if it was about to break out of its body.The fetal sac contracted and the airflow became stronger and stronger, forming a whirlpool soon.

This vortex is like a tornado that quickly expands its range. In a few seconds, the originally extremely dark space is like a nebula map, with the center of the fetal sac where we are located as the eye of the wind, slowly rotating.After having Wang Zanghai's consciousness, I immediately understood that this was the change of the so-called "feng shui level".

The structure of the ice palace is the same as before, the center of balance of the whole palace is set at the position of the ice coffin.Once the force on the ice coffin or the environment changes, the entire ice palace will collapse.The same is true for this illusory space. The existence of the fetal sac makes the pattern of the entire space in a balanced state. Once the position of the fetal sac changes, the entire space will collapse.And this kind of space collapse is the process of the formation or destruction of the material world, the existing ones disappear into nothingness, and then transform into another species.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yinzhen and the others' persistence started a new round of creation process. For the sacred title of Creator, Zhang Yinzhen really wants to be bestowed on this bastard.But I think he definitely does not want to turn himself into invisible energy, and then convert it into another species and export it to another dimension.Maybe his conversion directly replaces it with a flush toilet, I see how embarrassing he is!

I was so anxious that I quickly ran to the gap in the fetal sac. The fat man and the others were almost thrown out by the whirlpool, sticking to the fetal sac one by one like creepers.It won't take long to resist this kind of situation, and if you don't have enough physical strength, you will be swept away soon, and you will really be turned into powder.Wang Zanghai's spirit body sneered, "What's the rush? Anyway, they all have to die. This lowly species will perish, and only your body will be left, and it will still be so useful even after tens of millions of years."

For Wang Zanghai who is still judging my cost performance, I am even more angry.

Zhang Qiling quickly came over with force, looked at the condition of the fetal sac, and said to me: "Wu Xie, use the ghost seal!" I suddenly realized that I immediately held the ghost seal in my hand, and poured my own strength into it, Activate the energy of Guixi to temporarily balance the energy mutation.

Wang Zanghai kept nagging: "You're pretty smart. But it's useless. Just that fetal spirit—" he was referring to Zhang Qiling, "every ten years there will be an accident here, and the chaotic energy will come from From strong to weak, it is absorbed by the earth tire. Once all the energy is absorbed, this place will collapse, and the fetus spirit will become stronger because it absorbs too much energy. Once it breaks free from the shackles of this space, the fetus spirit will appear in the outside world. In order to survive, it will eat all species made of energy. Hahahaha——by then, the whole world will be destroyed—"

I looked at Zhang Qiling in surprise.So, it is necessary to enter the door every ten years, just to prevent energy changes and kill the fetus spirit that is about to take shape?

Wang Zanghai said: "In order to make up for the lost energy, this guardian will dissolve himself here. What a great sacrifice!"

The energy of the fetal sac dissipated very quickly, the energy on my body gradually failed to connect, and the space began to turbulent again.I looked at Fatty Xie Yuhua and the others. They had already used their guns in the dispute with Zhang Yinzhen. If this continues, even if they are not swallowed by this space, they will fight to death.

Xie Yuhua said: "I agreed to accompany Wu Xie to find this place, just to destroy this ghost place with my own hands. No matter how much Jiumen paid for it, everything should be over! I thought it would be enough to just blow up here, but now it seems that I have to Completely destroy this fetal sac!"

These words suddenly reminded me of earlier, when Xie Yuhua accompanied me to Mount Qilian, he once advised me, "Wu Xie, you have to persevere, and everything will be fine."

It turned out that he had such a belief at that time.So why did he hand over Wu Xie to Huo Xiuxiu? Is it because he never planned to go back alive from the beginning?

And Zhang Qiling, a man who has always been a man of few words, all he does in every reincarnation is to find the mystery of his own life experience, but when it is time to take responsibility, he still shoulders the responsibility that perhaps shouldn't belong to him. Can't even say a word.

In comparison, I just happened to be born here and have such a fate, but I am blaming their positions and intentions.Originally, they and I just had different positions.It is understandable to think for oneself, but each of them does not live only for themselves.Taking on the responsibilities of others may also be an honor to be born as a human being.

It's not in vain that I have a human form, possessing the most beautiful and kind humanity that Zhang Qiling said.

If, like Wang Zanghai, he can ignore everything for himself, all ethics, morality, human nature, and righteousness are bullshit, even if he can live forever, he is just a sad lonely monster.

The ghost seal's energy was about to run out, and the space was violently turbulent again.With the last of my strength, I threw Hei Jin to Zhang Qiling, and finally I could face him calmly: "Take them out! I hope that from now on, there will be no Changbai Palace again!"

Zhang Qiling was drenched in blood, he grabbed Hei Jin and took a few steps back slowly.Xie Yuhua knocked Zhang Yinzhen unconscious with the butt of a gun, and carried him down with the fat man. Peter and Evans immediately followed suit.

I felt the cold energy in my body become several times stronger in an instant, pressing down on me and trying to manipulate me to prevent me from moving, just waiting for the space to collapse and destroy everything.But at this time, I was fearless, and I directly opened myself to release all the energy, and shouted to Zhang Qiling: "I will use the last energy to open the bronze door for you! Take them out! From now on, never have the illusion of eternal life again." !"

Thousands of dazzling green lights instantly emitted from Guixi, completely illuminating the entire illusory and dark space.Originally, there was nothing in this space, only a stream of air that ordinary people could not feel, which circulated extremely slowly like the Tai Chi Nebula.Zhang Qiling held the black gold and transformed into a huge black unicorn in the green light of the ghost seal. After Xie Yuhua and the others climbed up, he turned around and walked away quickly on the white smoke.

"Are you crazy! If you destroy the fetal sac, you will be destroyed too! Then there will be nothing! There will be nothing!" Only then did Wang Zanghai realize what I was going to do, his spirit body struggled frantically, thinking Get out of me.I had expected him to be like this a long time ago, when he grew stronger just now, I also used my power to seal him.

I smiled: "Since you like being with me so much, let's be together forever."

As I said that, I glanced outside.The black unicorn has already gone a long way, and it is estimated that the distance should be close to the bronze gate.Suddenly, it stopped and looked back at me.

I said two words softly: "Goodbye."

Then I jumped up and slammed into the huge, living and twitching fetal sac!

When I hit it, my eyes were so bright that I couldn't see anything.The entire fetal sac was shattered and collapsed by all my energy, and countless fragments splashed and exploded, flying away like a cloud of powder floating in the air.

In my last consciousness, I seemed to see that the closed bronze door opened a crack, and the black unicorn leaped out with all four hooves.

The landslide in Changbai Mountain lasted for several days, and Erdaobaihe Village was almost submerged by the slush flow caused by the landslide.The rescue army fought hard for nearly half a month before they settled the villagers.

After the army left, a rumor circulated in the village of Erdaobaihe, saying that someone saw with their own eyes that the five people rescued by the army from the mountainside were sent down the mountain by a huge black unicorn.Rumors spread vividly, and it was said that Qilin disappeared after going down the mountain.

Nine years later.

In the early summer, Beijing finally survived the wind and sand, and the air became brighter.

In the old mansion of the old palace, where the sun was shaded by trees, Xie Yuchen pushed Wu Xie under a ginkgo tree in a wheelchair, sat on a stone bench by himself, and squeezed the muscles of Wu Xie's arms and thighs.

Wu Xiean sat quietly in the wheelchair, expressionless, looking straight ahead.

Xie Yuchen held his hand, squeezed his fingers carefully, and said softly: "Xiaoxie, when we were young, you always thought I was a girl, and you said you liked to listen to my singing. The weather is good these days, I'll sing one for you the next day. You know, I haven't sung since I took over the Xie family at the age of 16, and I don't know how much I still have. Don't laugh at me."

Wu Xie just listened quietly, without responding or moving.

Xie Yuchen continued: "The fat man has never given up and wanted to find Zhang Qiling. He has been out for half a year recently, but he got back the black gold ancient knife. He took the knife to the owner of the Crescent Hotel and said that he would organize an auction. If Zhang Qiling comes back, you can't show him this face, let's be more polite and call him, okay?"

Xie Yuchen bent down to rub Wu Xie's feet, but his little finger twitched slightly without seeing Wu Xie's hand resting on his thigh.

The fat man talked about the auction with someone at the Crescent Hotel. Just as he left the place, a young man walked up to the gate.Looking at the door of the Wangwang building, he was about to step in when he was stopped by the security guard.

"Do you have an appointment?"

The young man shook his head. "I heard there's a knife for sale here, and I want to see it."
