Ye Yan woke up.

He opened his eyes and surveyed what he saw.This place is different from any place he is familiar with. A snow-white zenith occupies the entire line of sight, leaving only a white light in front of his eyes.

"You're awake." The old, unfamiliar voice reminded him that he was awake, not in a strange dream.

Ye Yan struggled to get up, raised his head with difficulty, and looked towards the source of the sound. Then, he saw a white-headed old woman standing there.

"Senior." Ye Yan said, "Thank you, senior."

"You don't need to thank me." The old woman interrupted him coldly, "It's your own fate. You swallowed the ice lotus platform alive, and you still can't die."

"..." Ye Yan was choked by her for a moment, unable to speak.

"Ordinary people don't eat that thing, as long as they touch it, they will be frozen into statues." The old woman glanced at him up and down, "You really have the guts."

"But," she said, changing the subject, "it's not a good thing to be too bold, young man."

Ye Yan laughed twice, and said, "Senior is right."

"Don't call me senior." The old woman squinted at him and said, "I'm not your senior."

"But?!" Ye Yan was surprised for a while. He clearly learned from Tang Ziyu that the person guarding the front of the formation was a senior of the Suhua School, but now the old woman's denial is so decisive, her eyes There is no hesitation in the eyes, it does not seem to be fake.

"Let me ask you," the old woman turned around, stared straight at Ye Yan, and said, "Where did you get this thing from?"

Ye Yan looked intently and saw the string of pearls that the old woman was holding in her palm.The string of bracelets has been washed and wiped, revealing the light of the past faintly.He thought for a while, and said truthfully: "This is me from the head."

"Who is it?" A gleam of light flashed in the old woman's eyes, she stared at Ye Yan fiercely, and asked.

"Ah?! Of course it's Tang Ziyu who is in charge," Ye Yan said softly, confused.

"..."

The old woman fell silent suddenly, clenched tightly on the broken pearl bracelet, and did not speak again.

Ye Yan was confused, he glanced at the old woman cautiously, and finally decided to ask about the current situation first.

"Senior, senior?"

The old woman looked up at him.

"Um, that, where is it?" Ye Yan touched his head, and started with a simple question.

"Ice Lake Secret Realm, the eyes of the Buddha Formation, don't you know?" The old woman glanced coldly, and said, "I have guarded the eyes of the formation here for more than [-] years, and now, it has been broken once."

"!"

"You don't have to feel guilty." The old woman glanced at him and said, "The spirit-gathering formation has a limit to its endurance, even if you don't come here today, after a few months, this formation will collapse ."

"Ah? Then why is the head?!" Ye Yan was very surprised and couldn't help blurting out.

The old woman glanced at him, but said nothing.

"..." Ye Yan had already deeply felt the eccentricity of the "senior" in front of him, so he decided not to dwell on this issue any longer, and instead asked, "Senior, I want to know about my senior brother."

Unusually, the old woman didn't look at Ye Yan with that indifferent gaze. This time, instead, she cast a sympathetic gaze, and then slowly stepped aside.

It was only then that Ye Yan discovered that behind the old woman was also a crude bed.

He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, suddenly rushed off his bed, and stumbled to the other side.

"Brother?"

It's Xiao Mingzhe.

Even if he confirmed it again, he still couldn't come to a different conclusion.The person lying quietly on that crude bed can only be Xiao Mingzhe.

That person, that face, everything is as it was yesterday.It was still the indigo blue long coat.

However, something is different.For example, the blood-red long sword with a strong bloody smell; another example, the dried blood stained on the clothes.

"Brother?!"

Ye Yan trembled, stretched out his hand, and took the man's hand.

Coldly, without a trace of warmth.

"..." His lips opened and closed soundlessly, as if he had been pinched out of the neck by a pair of invisible hands, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't make a sound.

"The soul is broken." The old woman said slowly behind him, "When I arrived, it was hopeless."

"..."

"It's not dead, but it's not alive either." The old woman walked slowly to Ye Yan's side, looked at the stiff body of the person lying on the bed, and said slowly.

Ye Yan could clearly hear these words, but he couldn't understand what they meant.

It was as if something was broken in his mind. He was here, listening to these words, completely unable to organize their meaning, let alone understand what happened.

What's going on! !

Why is this still the case?

This is fate?Or is it the so-called earth, the way of heaven?

Countless thoughts were entangled in Ye Yan's mind, his knees gave way and he knelt down on the ground.The ground was unmelted ice, and the eternal cold came from the ground, but he didn't feel it at all.

Deep inside, something has slowly extinguished.

Then, a gust of cold went upstream, and finally traveled all over the body.That kind of eternal cold suddenly penetrated the whole body, Ye Yan let go of Xiao Mingzhe's hand little by little, and finally held it tightly again.

This time, he could no longer feel the cold temperature on that body.Because his own palm has also become the same temperature.

The old woman glanced at him silently, then quietly withdrew, leaving the place to the young man alone.

She stood outside, looking at the unchanging azure blue sky in the secret place of the ice lake, and sighed, the sadness and sweetness of a girl suddenly appeared on her face.

"Brother," she whispered, "why did you lie to me?"

"You obviously haven't forgotten why you lied to me?"

Midnight.

The small secret realm was on the verge of collapse, and it was also affected by the time and space outside, and the sky was covered with a faint haze.

In normal times, in the small secret realm, no matter morning or evening, there should be a ruthless light blue sky.

With a creak, the old woman turned her head slowly and saw the young man coming out of the small room.

Suddenly, her eyes changed.

Because, the boy standing there has completely changed into another appearance.All the demeanor of those young people faded away from him, leaving only a pale emptiness.

The most obvious change was Ye Yan's hair.The black hair that originally belonged to the young man had already turned white overnight.

When he slowly opened his eyes, he realized that the boy's eyes had also turned into a light gray.

"The cold is already in your bones, do you know?" the old woman was silent for a long time, she turned her eyes away, and said.

"Ah." Ye Yan nodded, his eyes were cold, "I know."

"Then where are you going?"

"Senior," Ye Yan looked at the old woman and asked softly, "Can you tell me, what are those ice lotuses used for?"

"You already guessed it." The old woman raised her eyebrows and said.

"Sure enough." Ye Yan nodded and said, "Thank you."

After speaking, he turned around and walked forward.

The old woman looked at his back with a complicated expression, sighed softly, and said, "Where are you going?"

"Go back to the mountain." Ye Yan replied.

"It's cold to the bone, with your current body, what can you do even if you go back?"

Ye Yan stopped, thought for a while, and said, "I know. But there are some things that only I can do."

After saying this, he left this small secret place without hesitation.Until the figure disappeared at the end of the sky, there was no more word left.

Behind him, the old woman who was left behind smiled self-deprecatingly, and said to herself: "Oh, I don't know where the love started, and it goes deeper and deeper."

Then the love is deep and lifeless.

When she closed her eyes and opened them again, she had already made up her mind.

The old woman turned around and returned to the hut.From a hidden place, she took out a stone box, turned the button, and opened it.

Inside the stone box was a small white flower, exuding a faint halo.

"Forget Soul Flower." The old woman smiled slightly, turned her head, and looked at the person lying on the bed, "Whether it can be rescued or not depends on the destiny."

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head and murmured: "Senior brother, you probably wouldn't have thought of it. Even then, I would not be willing to take this dose of forgetting the soul."

"However, it's okay. Now, it can be used for more useful things." The old woman sighed, took out the dead soul flower from the stone box, walked to Xiao Mingzhe, and placed the dead soul flower between his eyebrows .

I saw that little flower slowly sank between the man's eyebrows, and the last bit of halo gradually disappeared.

The old woman stopped looking at him and continued to open the stone box.After removing the first layer of the stone box, the lower layer is exposed.

In the interlayer, lay a red pill.

The old woman swallowed the elixir without hesitation.

Afterwards, her face and body underwent wonderful changes.It was obviously the body of an eighty-year-old man, but after taking the elixir, he slowly recovered the body of a young girl.

And her face slowly changed back to the appearance of a girl.Cherry lips with snow muscles, black eyebrows and autumn waves, she is a full-fledged beauty.This is not only embarrassing, but even such a beauty cannot withstand the ravages of time.

After recovering her girlish appearance, she sat down on the stone bench, picked up a black comb, and slowly arranged her black hair.

In front of her, a complete set of jewelry was placed.From pearls and hairpins to bracelets and earrings, there are many others.

The girl tidied up her dress, put on all the gorgeous jewelry, and finally put the last thing on the table into her arms carefully.

She raised her head, looked at her own face in the stone mirror, and showed a faint smile.Then, she picked up a ruby ​​dagger, turned and left.

The wind and rain are like obscurity, and cock crows endlessly.
