Mystery

Wu Xie felt water dripping on his face, and subconsciously wiped it with his hands, but unexpectedly met his hazy tearful eyes.

Those are my tears.

Was he dreaming just now?Wu Xie thought so.He felt that he had a lot of dreams just now. He dreamed that he opened his eyes and saw his grandfather, father and third uncle, but he just didn't know what happened before.

"Why did you fall asleep outside?"

"Fortunately, it doesn't look injured."

He seemed to be still sleepy, so grandpa gently covered his eyes...

"Go to sleep, everything will be fine when you wake up tomorrow."

"It's not them..." Wu Xie woke up.

"You're awake..." Zhang Qiling was right in front of him, "What's not them'?"

"I mean, it was you who called me just now..." Wu Xie did recognize Zhang Qiling.

Seeing Zhang Qiling hesitated to speak, he had a lot to ask.Wu Xie didn't give him this chance, so he hurriedly asked, "Where's the blind man?"

"The nearby stone wall." After Zhang Qiling finished speaking, Wu Xie was going to look for him immediately.As soon as he propped himself up, his back near his waist felt like a tearing pain.

"He doesn't want you to go find him." Zhang Qiling said truthfully.But he didn't tell Wu Xie that the hidden weapon didn't kill the original black blind man.In the final fight he stabbed himself in the eye.

It sounds so dramatic.

So sad too.

Wu Xie knew that the lost person was irretrievable, but the grief in his heart still lingered for a long time.

It is because of him that the outside world knows the secrets of this world so frantically.

It was also because of him that he was able to escape a hundred times and live to the end.

He walked forward step by step without looking back.

Looking back, there were already dead bodies all over the place.

"The patriarch is still there." Wu Xie didn't speak for a long time, his voice was very hoarse, "He's not dead yet, he wants my ghost seal."

As the blind man said, he must be buried in a dark and sinister corner, waiting for his own blood.

Wu Xie realized that her jade transformation had been reversed, reached out to touch the wound, and found that it had been bandaged.

"The next time you want to take it out, you just need to cut a layer of cloth." He put his arms around Zhang Qiling's shoulders, just like he did with the fat man at first, "Can you cruelly watch yourself die under your own knife?"

Zhang Qiling nodded.

He is the same as the black blind man.

Not only because of being tortured by the cycle of fate.

It's because of the belief that it's over.

He understood that Wu Xie was preparing him to face and understand himself.

He, Wu Xie, definitely couldn't do it.

Zhang Qiling and Wu Xie walked up the stairs carefully.Wu Xie would always accidentally make a "creaking" sound. If he made sure that every step would not startle the snake, he probably wouldn't be able to reach the top after walking for half a day.

Wu Xie stood still, thinking about how he could keep his voice down.Zhang Qiling immediately picked him up, and Wu Xie was so scared that he almost fell off.

"Brother..." Wu Xie's voice was extremely low, trying not to let Zhang Qiling see his blushing face.

Seeing that Zhang Qiling didn't let go of his intentions, Wu Xie had no choice but to give up.Even with someone in his arms, Zhang Qiling walked very lightly without making a sound.

"Here we are." Wu Xie frowned slightly.

This "arrival" is not finding the patriarch's body, but arriving at the fork of the choice.

They are standing on a rooftop with paths leading in four directions.

"Act separately?" Wu Xie knew that this would be very dangerous, but the chance of encountering it would be even greater.

Of course Zhang Qiling would not agree, and the two discussed it here for a long time.

"Someone!" Wu Xie saw a figure flash past the opposite pillar.

Zhang Qiling also noticed, and immediately went to chase.

Just when Zhang Qiling was a few meters away from Wu Xie, two murderous corpses came down from the stairs on both sides.Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling had expected it a long time ago, and saw Zhang Qiling stepping on the railing and turning back, gently hugging Wu Xie, the blade swirled with his clothes, hitting the heart and throat of the murderous corpse.

"It's not that I have no hands..." Before Wu Xie could finish saying "I have no power to restrain a chicken", the man began to shout crazily.

"A group of idiots," the man's voice came from the opposite side, sharp and strange, "Kill me, and you will cease to exist!"

"Are you still going to get to know me personally and go out to live your little days?"

"Don't be stupid! If this place is destroyed, even if you get out, you will be a corpse at most!"

"Brother," Wu Xie pretended to be serious, and put his hand lightly on Zhang Qiling's shoulder, "You will still be my ghost after you die."

Zhang Qiling was taken aback.Wu Xie smiled contentedly, without the sense of urgency that the enemy was at the head.The man's roar also paused, not knowing whether he was frightened or didn't react.

Don't be so nervous.

I will definitely let you die here.

end it all.

Thick black smoke gushed out all around, and the smell was extremely pungent, coming from every place where the coffin was secured.

"He's going to release the corpse..." Wu Xie covered his mouth and nose, "Isn't he a relative of the ancestor? Even if he wasn't, he shouldn't treat his ancestors like this..."

Zhang Qiling glanced at him.Wu Xie thought about what he had done to open the coffin, and couldn't help being speechless.

Zhang Qiling's suspicious glance just now was hidden in the smoke.

In the past, when encountering dangerous situations, Wu Xie would make jokes appropriately.

But why did he look so relaxed today?

he……

It must not be Wu Xie!

It has to be said that this person perfectly matches Wu Xie in terms of voice, appearance and body shape, so Zhang Qiling didn't realize the problem until now.

Two snake-like creatures sprang out from under Zhang Qiling's feet, they were blocked and cut seven inches by him as soon as they showed up.

"Hey, don't worry," the man squatted on the ground, squinting his chin and smiling, "Guess first, when did we switch?"

Obviously, Zhang Qiling didn't have much patience when it came to Wu Xie's life.

Hei Jin aimed at the man's forehead, and seeing that Zhang Qiling got angry earlier than expected, the man inevitably became more vigilant.

"Let me introduce myself first, I am Qi Yu."

"That's right, it's the 'Qi Yu' you killed earlier."

"I don't know how much you know about this name. Anyway, I don't think you know anything."

"Don't be nervous, I'm not resurrected."

"I wasn't dead in the first place."

Qi Yu held onto his waist, the place where the cloth was wrapped was still bleeding.

"Boast me, I even cut off the flesh for this scene, and stuffed a big rock I picked up from nowhere..."

Zhang Qiling didn't care about his pretentiousness, the point of the knife was getting closer and closer.

"Where is he?!"

……

"Third Uncle!" Wu Xie woke up startled.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a clay pot.

Did I... go back to... that hole...

There was a thick layer of dust on the ground, and the messy footprints were a little weird.

No, he is still in the ancient building.

Wu Xie knew what was inside, so she bravely wanted to open the jar.

"Don't move!" came a roar from the darkness.

Although Wu Xie was shocked, he smashed the jar to pieces before the man could stop him.

There was still a human head like himself inside.

"I told you." The man sneered.

"Who are you?" Wu Xie felt even more amused.Has he been here all this time?Otherwise, how could you not know that you have already experienced this kind of thing.

"Have you seen the emperor's seal?"

The man's footsteps came closer.Wu Xie pulled out the remaining half-length dagger with a vigilant expression.

"The ghost seal is also the emperor's jade seal, why is it so small that it can fit in the palm of your hand?"

"Before you knew it, you also deduced that there were four ghost seals, right?"

"Where is this jade seal created out of thin air? It was divided from the original ghost seal."

"Although it can maintain life, its flaws are also obvious. The more divisions, the greater the impact on each rebirth. Aging, disability, premature death, memory loss... these are all possible."

"The walking dead, lingering on their last breath."

"You're talking about yourself, right?" Wu Xie hated this kind of vicious person the most.People say death, misfortune comes from the mouth, words are like blades, as if peeling your skin layer by layer, seeing the bright red flesh and blood.

"...It's not bad. But I'm not alone, and so are you." The man's sneer was extremely ear-piercing.His hoarse voice muffled his sentences, and he could only express his morbid excitement by exaggerating every word he said, every laugh he made.

"A gentleman doesn't move his hands." Although Wu Xie had a big wound on his back, he already felt much better, "At least let me know who you are."

"Zhang Qiling." The man announced his family name.

"Crap... Which family ghost are you from?"

"I'm really Zhang Qiling."

A dark dart flew quickly from the darkness, but Wu Xie dodged it lightly.Every jade transformation is the process of him gradually getting closer to the former King of Dongxia. Every time his encounter and his own experience are reproduced more clearly on the stage. Every time they will stick to the original, but get what they want from each other. s things.

He is no longer just the "fresh and refined young gentleman, a weak official who comes out of water and lotus" in the fat man's mouth.

In other words, Wu Xie's blood is not just the Qilin blood of unknown origin.

It is the blood of King Dongxia.

"I just saw another 'Zhang Qiling'." That person started to walk towards Wu Xie again, "I don't know if he is tired or Qi Yu looks too much like you, he didn't realize that the person beside him is not you. "

"Qi Yu?! He..." Wu Xie was startled.

"He's not dead, it's someone else. Friends, the heads you've seen are just a drop in the bucket."

……

"I don't know if you remember someone." Qi Yu clamped Zhang Qiling's knife with his fingers, regardless of the blood, "Zhang Haike."

Zhang Qiling searched for this person in his mind, but Qi Yu forced himself to speak first and continued: "That's right, you definitely don't remember."

He was wrong, Zhang Haike was one of the few people in the Zhang family he could remember.

After returning to the Bronze Gate, the past, like the sound of running water, became clearer, and that period of history became more and more familiar.

That's right, that was Zhang Qiling's childhood.

The day he left was the day he met Zhang Haike.Wu Xie would sleep forever because there was no "East Xia King" in his childhood memory, and that was not the time for Wu Xie to appear.

The whole repeated history is centered on himself.

He still vaguely remembered that afternoon, when the sun was shining brightly, he was standing alone in the empty courtyard meditating, and someone stood quietly beside him, and it took him a long time to speak.

"What are you looking at?"

Zhang Qiling didn't look at anything, so he could only choose to remain silent as usual.

Following Zhang Qiling's emptiness, the boy saw only a thin cloud.

"That cloud is very beautiful..."

"How could I put on the poisonous armor unpreparedly and let you all die with one blow?" Qi Yu's voice came faintly.

Zhang Qiling finally realized what it means that there are not countless Dong Xia kings in this world, but "countless" Wu Xie.

"Zhang Qiling, what are you thinking?" Qi Yu couldn't help laughing at Zhang Qiling's pensive look, "You don't even know that the host who received you as a guest has arrived."

A chill hit, Zhang Qiling drew his knife and slashed behind him, drawing blood red.

A huge black-scaled boa constrictor was staring at him covetously, with one yellow and one green eye, and the canthus was completely slit.

The moment Zhang Qiling turned around, Qi Yu turned over and fell directly, which surprised Zhang Qiling even more.The floor he was on was not low, and if he fell directly, he would be injured if he didn't die.

It seems that this Qi Yu is really not simple.

……

"I don't care if he dies or not, you must die anyway!" Wu Xie remembered that every time his mother-in-law and mother had something bad to do, he simply rushed into the darkness with a dagger.

The man was on the edge of the darkness, he grasped Wu Xie's wrist with both hands and pulled away, the dagger flew into the air.Wu Xie took advantage of the situation and flipped in the air, clamping "Zhang Qiling"'s neck with his legs, and catching the dagger with his left hand, he was about to stab it.

That man certainly couldn't just let Wu Xie break his neck easily, and fell backwards so that Wu Xie couldn't support him.Wu Xie had expected it a long time ago, so he turned over and stepped on his chest and jumped lightly to the place illuminated by the candlelight.

The man seemed to be very weak, but he was kicked hard in the chest and fell to the ground.

"I said..." Wu Xie stepped up his vigilance, "You..."

His violent cough made Wu Xie feel that he was not pretending, but if he was already like this, why did he openly provoke him?

The man lit a torch and exposed himself to the light.Wu Xie was terrified the moment he saw his true face.

His shoulders collapsed in a strange way, and there were many black spots on his body, which seemed to be caused by burning.The whole person is extremely thin, his eyes are covered by long messy hair, and the faint curvature of the corner of his mouth indicates that he is still maintaining a provocative posture.

"Surprised?" He coughed violently again.

"You..." Wu Xie understood that there was a real reason why he was nagging himself about Guixi.

"If there is no accident, your friend has already met the enemy who should fight." He snapped his fingers, and there was the sound of something rubbing against the wooden beam from above their heads.

It was a huge white boa constrictor.
