Quezhou, Zhen'an City.

The entire territory of Quezhou is covered with mountains and hills. For the monks, the mountains are not a problem.But for mortals, these towering mountains are an insurmountable gap. If merchants from Qingzhou and Xuanzhou want to go to the interior of Quezhou, Zhen'an City is the place they must pass through.

This makes Zhen'an City the most prosperous town in Quezhou, but the spiritual veins here are thin, with many mortals and few monks.

There is also a worry-free inn here, and at this time Shen Lianyu took his master to recuperate here.

In the empty wing room, the scent of crabapple was burning faintly, and the sunlight outside the window let in a little warmth.

The decoration in the wing room is simple and unsophisticated, and a sick and weak beauty is lying on the carved pear wood bed.

The man had long black hair and a handsome face, but his face was covered with red lines like tattoos, which made his indifferent facial features a layer of beauty.Under the smudged glow, his skin was as pale as a lifeless dead man, and even his breathing was weak and almost non-existent, but the red lines on his face were bright and dazzling, as if he was a ghost clinging to his body and sucking life.

Shen Lianyu was lying on the edge of the bed, clutching the sleeves of the person on the bed with his fingers, and fell asleep with a thin cloak over his thin back.

The autumn wind passed by outside the window, rolled up the open window, and closed it with a "click".

The boy lying beside the bed shivered and woke up suddenly.

"Master?"

After waking up, he looked at the person on the bed for the first time, his eyes sparkling, hiding expectations that he didn't realize.

However, the man still showed no signs of waking up, lying there quietly, as if he had fallen into eternal sleep.

Shen Lianyu let go of the right hand that was holding the master's sleeve, straightened up, and the cloak on his body slipped down, and he reached out to catch it reflexively.

...When did the extra cloak come out?

He had just woken up, his mind was still not clear, he was dazed for a while before he murmured: "Sister Luo Si has come?"

He put the cloak aside, stood up and pressed the back of his hand against the forehead of the master, but the feeling of the touch made him feel a haze in his heart

The high fever still persists.

Time went back half a month ago.

That day, Han Zhi was severely injured by Wu Wang, and when he was panicking, a person he hadn't expected appeared in front of him.

——Loth, the treasurer of the Worry-free Inn in Baidi City.

Luo Si stepped forward and healed the wound on Han Zhi's forehead with gentle and abundant spiritual power, but he was helpless against the red lines spreading from his body.

"Sister Luosi...?" Shen Lianyu called blankly.

Luosi saw his distraught little appearance, and a distressed look flashed across his face. She glanced at the sword array that was getting closer and closer to the sky, and asked softly: "Leave with me first? After a while, the sky will be broken." Those monks from Jianzong are about to rush over, and they are afraid that they will force you to ask about Wuwang."

Shen Lianyu followed her gaze and nodded bewilderedly: "Okay."

His mind was in chaos, and he didn't even ask her why she appeared here, why she knew Wu Wang, how long she had been watching, etc...

The moment he saw Luo Si, Master's cold voice flashed in Shen Lianyu's mind - she should not be a bad person.

Since she is not a bad person... then she should be trustworthy, Master?

It's a pity that the person he wanted to ask could no longer reply to him.

Led by Luo Si, they came to Zhen'an City, where there was a worry-free inn that looked exactly like the pavilion in Baidi City.

Shen Lianyu and his master temporarily settled here.

After that, Luo Si used a special method to stabilize Han Zhi's state, but she didn't understand the seal that Han Zhi set up, let alone help him suppress that thing back.

After checking the state of Han Zhi, Luo Si told Shen Lianyu:

Han Zhi seemed to have fallen into a coma, but in fact he still relied on his own will to contend against that thing.Both parties want to gain control of the body, but neither can overwhelm the other.Therefore, this led to the current situation - although Han Zhi's body had no external injuries, he fell into a deep sleep of ignorance and could not wake up for a long time.

Although Han Zhi could only rely on Han Zhi's own will to suppress that thing, but it was not impossible for them to do anything.

Ever since the master fell into a coma, Shen Lianyu had been in a daze until he heard this.

Luo Si said that in the depths of the deep abyss in the north of the extreme northern ice sheet, there is a kind of ice lotus growing. The only function of this kind of snow lotus is to help monks suppress the inner demons, so that their own will can win, and avoid completely going crazy.The Bing Po Xuelian should be able to help Han Zhi suppress that force and wake him up from that deep sleep.

However, since the Spirit Gathering Formation was set up on the four continents ten thousand years ago, because the demonic seeds could not survive in an environment without demonic energy, let alone daily practice, even the demonic catastrophe when crossing the catastrophe and ascending also disappeared.

After tens of thousands of years, there is no need for ice lotus, so naturally no one goes to the depths of the abyss to seek death. It is said that this kind of spirit plant has become the dust of history, and no one has seen it for thousands of years.

After hearing this, Shen Lianyu was silent for a long time, and actually told Luo Si that he was going to the underworld to collect ice lotus for his master.

Luo Si felt dizzy hearing him say that.

The Nether Abyss is located on the border of the Four Continents Spirit Gathering Array. It is a bottomless abyss formed by the intersection of the void and the seawater of the extreme northern ice sheet. There are countless strange beasts in the void hidden in it. The terrain is intricate. Dangerous land that dare not tread lightly.

Luo Si suggested that they could first offer a reward to everyone in the four continents. Maybe there is an ancient sect that still keeps the ice lotus that was picked thousands of years ago. If they can buy it, they naturally don't have to take risks.

She persuaded again and again, and finally managed to persuade the young man to come down for the time being, but she also knew that if the purchase was not possible, and Han Zhi was not awake for a long time, the young man would still have the idea of ​​going to the deep abyss for a try.

At that time, how can she stop the boy?

Today, half a month has passed since Luo Si's reward was sent out.

No one sent the Ice Soul Snow Lotus, but Master's body temperature is getting higher and higher, and I don't know how long he can last...

Shen Lianyu pursed his lips, stared at the master silently for a while, and suddenly his shoulders relaxed, revealing a relieved smile.

Some things cannot be avoided after all.

It's not that he doesn't know the dangers of Nether Abyss, it's just that the master came to this point to save him, so can he watch him gradually go to death with peace of mind?

Not to mention, Shizun is still the person he admires, even if he doesn't have the grace to save his life, he will go to hell to save him.

The boy leaned down/as a person on the bed and finally tucked in the corner of the quilt, then carefully closed all the windows in the room, turned and left.

The moment he left, Han Zhi's fingertips twitched slightly, as if he wanted to keep someone back.

But that movement was too subtle, and no one noticed the change in an instant.

Shen Lianyu shuttled in the corridor, and after turning two turns in a row, he finally walked out of the range of the silent array set by Luo Si.

The original silence was replaced by noise, and the voice of the tea guest hit his ears, and he rubbed his ears uncomfortably.

In just half a month, he felt as if he had passed away.

He was not in a good state of mind, and he was in a trance when he walked. When he realized it, he had already bumped into someone.

Shen Lianyu subconsciously helped the man: "Sorry, I was distracted, you're fine—"

Shen Lianyu's voice stopped abruptly when he saw the face of that person bumped into him.

It's Xu Shengzhi.

Xu Sheng's face was exhausted, his whole body had experienced a lot of vicissitudes, there was even a wrinkle between his brows and eyes, his light-colored eyes, which were always gentle and kind, were as dark as a lake of stagnant water, never to be the same as before.

Shen Lianyu subconsciously wanted to step back, but the man grabbed his elbow with his backhand.

"Yu'er, why have you lost so much weight?"

Obviously, not only Xu Shengzhi's condition is not very good, but his own condition is also not very good, but he doesn't have the mind to look in the mirror at all, so naturally he doesn't know what he looks like.

After Xu Chengzhi said this, he subconsciously looked at his hand, the wrist joints were raised high, and the knuckles on the fingers were also protruding abruptly.

It seems that he has lost a lot of weight than before... He thought in a daze.

Xu Chengzhi dragged him to the private room. Shen Lianyu struggled for a long time and couldn't get away. He anxiously looked up at the counter on the first floor, only to find that Sister Luo Si was looking up at him and nodded slightly at him.

Meaning, no danger.

Shen Lianyu's rusty mind turned around with difficulty, and finally gave up thinking, chose to trust Sister Luo Si, and followed Xu Chengzhi into the closed room.

After sitting down, he looked up at Xu Shengzhi's clear eyes, and asked, "Have you got rid of your demons?"

When Xu Chengzhi's eyes, like stagnant water, saw his appearance, the lake once again stirred up waves

The boy's palm-sized face was already thin and out of shape. The jaw showed clear bone lines, the cheekbones were protruding, and the eye sockets were deeply sunken. The originally gorgeous facial features showed a sense of gloom under such thinness. , like a poisonous snake with colorful scales that wants to choose someone to eat.

Those eyes that were always bright and bright also lost their luster, they were dark and misty, worse than what Xu Shengzhi had seen in his dreams, and his worst state in his previous life.

It was as if the soul was taken away by some power from an inexplicable height, leaving only a walking dead body.

It stands to reason that the physical state of the cultivator of Huashen will always be maintained at the moment of his breakthrough, plus he has already fasted, so there should be no such situation as losing weight due to insufficient intake.

But there are exceptions to everything.

There is only one situation that can cause a drastic change in the appearance of a cultivator who transforms spirits—the mind is exhausted to the point of exhaustion. The reason may be that he is obsessed with obsession, trapped in an unsolvable predicament, or it may be that he is determined to die and has the idea of ​​suicide.

Which one is Yu'er?

Xu Chengzhi poured a cup of tea for the boy opposite, and persuaded in a warm voice: "Drink some water to warm up your body first."

After the young man drank a cup of hot tea slowly under his gaze, he asked, "Can you tell me what happened?"

The voice was as gentle as the spring breeze turning into rain, as if afraid that if the voice was a little louder, the people piled up in the sand in front of them would be blown away.

Shen Lianyu's actions have always been slightly slow, but he himself didn't seem to notice it. He reacted to Xu Chengzhi's question for a while before his eyes became sharp: "It has nothing to do with you."

"..." Xu Chengzhi was choked, took a breath, and continued to ask in a gentle voice: "Yu'er, although the previous obsession was an accident, it did let us get to know each other openly and honestly again."

They both knew that each other had memories of previous lives, no wonder, Yu'er had always been so resistant to his overtures.

A trace of bitterness leaked from the corner of Xu Shengzhi's mouth, and he said in a gentle voice: "About the past life... I want to make some compensation. I want to know, is there anything I can do for you?"

Shen Lianyu lowered his eyelashes, only to feel that the shadow transformed from exhaustion protruded from the endless abyss and entangled him crazily, making his limbs heavy, and he just wanted to disconnect from everything in this world

Why are these people still refusing to let him go at this time?They killed Shen Lianyu in the previous life, should they also kill him in this life?

"You--" He wanted to utter evil words directly, but after he said it, he suddenly remembered that Xu Shengzhi was a member of Tianhengzong, and Tianhengzong was a sect inherited from ancient times. Then, their sect's treasure house Will there still be ice lotuses from before?

Shen Lianyu's dark eyes were suddenly dyed with a small flame, and he threw himself on the table and grabbed Xu Chengzhi's hand: "You are the head of Tianhengzong, do Tianhengzong still have the ice lotus that was left before?"

Ice Soul Snow Lotus...?

Xu Shengzhi was startled by the boy's sudden attitude. His cold fingers were clenched tightly, almost embedded in his flesh and blood, like a drowning man grabbing the only straw to save his life.

But even this kind of touch is something that Xu Sheng cherishes and values.

He knew what the young man really cared about, so he tried to recall it, but he fell silent after thinking about it.

——There used to be one.

But in order for him to get rid of his inner demons, the only surviving Ice Soul Snow Lotus had entered his stomach.

"..."

Xu Shengzhi said with difficulty: "No more."

The flames that had finally ignited in the young man's eyes were extinguished again, he let go of Xu Chengzhi's hand, sat back decadently, and let out a cold "oh".

Shen Lianyu glanced at him lightly, got up and was about to leave.

He was obviously not in the right condition, how could Xu Shengzhi rest assured that he would leave like this?

He rushed forward and grabbed the boy's wrist, his voice hurried: "Where are you going?"

Shen Lianyu frowned, and lightly reprimanded: "Let go."

"Since I can't buy Ice Soul Snow Lotus, I'll pick it myself."

He wanted to break Xu Chengzhi's fingers, but the man clasped them tightly so that he couldn't take a peek for a long time.

He began to hesitate, whether to bite him, if it hurts him, he will always let go, right?

Xu Shengzhi asked heavily: "Ice Soul Snow Lotus... Do you really want it?"

He couldn't describe the fear he felt when he heard Yu'er said that he wanted to pick them by himself.

——Ice soul snow lotus only grows in the depths of the underworld. As a cultivator who transforms spirits, did he want to court death in the past?

It's just that he looked at Shen Lianyu's haggard appearance, and knew clearly that he would not listen to his persuasion. If he couldn't find the ice lotus that caused him to become like this, if he continued like this, his mind would be completely exhausted , the same is death.

"Yes." Shen Lianyu replied.

He had almost given up and was going to bite, but at this moment, Xu Chengzhi suddenly said: "Don't worry, I just... I lied to you just now, in fact, Tianhengzong still has a Ice Soul Snow Lotus."

Shen Lianyu stopped snapping his fingers, raised his head slowly, his twinkling pupils were full of shock, and expressed what he wanted to say directly with his eyes - "You liar"!

Xu Shengzhi didn't care about being misunderstood by him, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I'll go back and get that ice lotus plant. Don't run around, just wait here for me."

"Okay," Shen Lianyu blinked, and finally made a pale smile: "How long will it take?"

Xu Shengzhi bit the bullet and said, "Seven or eight days."

Shen Lianyu nodded: "Okay, please bring the Bingpo Xuelian as soon as possible. By then...no matter what request you ask, I will agree to you."

His mind is not very clear, so he failed to notice the contradiction in Xu Shengzhi's words

If Tianhengzong really had the Ice Soul Snow Lotus, two or three days would be enough to come and go, why would it take so long?

——Xu Chengzhi actually planned to go to the underworld to pick ice lotus for him.

As a cultivator who transforms spirits, the young man has ten deaths and no life when he enters the abyss, but he has returned to the void and completed it, so he can gamble the probability of nine deaths and one life.

"As long as you bring the Ice Soul Snow Lotus, whether you want my blood, or want me to sever ties with the master..." At this point, Shen Lianyu paused, but still firmly finished the follow-up words: "... ...Severing ties and worshiping you as a teacher, I will do it!"

The boy's eyes were dark, and he looked at him intently and sincerely, with the awareness to bear the price.

But Xu Shengzhi felt like a knife was twisting his heart.

Is that why he doesn't trust him?He really wanted to make up for the mistakes he made in his previous life.

He will prove himself.

At that time... Will Yu'er still be willing to give him a chance to start over?

The author has something to say: Shen Lianyu: Master turned into Sleeping Beauty, maybe it needs a kiss from the prince to wake up?Chirp~
