In the water mirror-like picture, Shen's mother is still patting her son's hand, whispering, every word and every word is full of earnest hope.

She harbored modest hopes, hoping that her son would wake up as soon as possible.

However, hope was elusive after all. Until the visiting time was over, the only sound in the ward was the regular and lifeless beeping of the ECG.

another world.

Shen Lianyu looked at his mother dumbly like a sculpture that had lost the ability to move, and heard every word she said.

——Mom misses you, stop losing your temper, wake up early.

I miss you too, I'm not losing my temper...

——What happened back then was all the fault of my parents. My parents shouldn't have tried to hide it from you. My parents just wanted to add a younger brother to you, and they didn't mean not to want you.

I know, I know you guys love me, you won't want me, I just ran out impulsively because I couldn't bear the facts for a while, I regretted it a long time ago...

——Xiaoyu, go home early, your parents are waiting for you.

As Shen's mother spoke, the corners of her eyes became moist, and crystal clear teardrops slid down her cheeks, hitting the back of the hand of the person on the bed.

Shen Lianyu, who was far away in another world, suddenly shivered, and subconsciously covered the back of his hand, as if he had been burned by something.

I want to go back too...but...but...

He pursed his lower lip tightly, and there was a kind of gloomy and inexplicable pain in his expression.

Those words that have never been spoken may never be heard in this life.

At this moment, the young man who had been quietly waiting behind Mama Shen in the screen looked at his watch and helped her up.

"Mom, it's time, it's time to leave."

Tiandao, who had the face of Venerable Yushen on his face, was expressionless, but a glimmer of pride flashed in his eyes.

He began to persuade: "Because of your matter, your parents have been depressed this year, and your health is not very good. They have been waiting for you to wake up..."

"Don't be willful, come out of that body, I will send you back, and then you can reunite with your parents and untie your knot."

Shen Lianyu watched his mother leave with the support of the young man with a dull face, his back was scattered, and before leaving, he looked back at the person on the hospital bed again and again, expecting a miracle to happen.

With such eyes, guilt almost swallowed Shen Lianyu completely.

Even though his heart was full of guilt that made his eyes red, after a moment of silence, he still insisted: "...I will stay here."

——He wants to stay here and stay with Master.

There is still a younger brother beside the parents, but if the master loses him, he will have nothing.

No matter ten thousand years ago or ten thousand years later, Master loved this world, but he had never been loved by this world.

Until time went back, Shen Lianyu came to him by his side.

Shen Lianyu closed his eyes, his voice was hoarse but extremely firm: "I won't leave, I want to stay by his side."

He is the rope that binds Master, the link between him and the world, and he cannot leave.

Tiandao looked at him and could hardly believe what he said.

"What the hell are you thinking? You clearly, obviously felt so strongly unwilling when you died, and you always missed your parents. Why did you choose to stay here? Stay in this world that has nothing to do with you?!"

His voice suddenly raised, sounding a little hysterical.

"Aren't you human beings the most filial? You are so filial to your parents? They want you to wake up, but you don't want to wake up, just for someone who has nothing to do with you?"

Tiandao pierced Shen Lianyu's body with angry eyes like a knife. His body, which was slightly hunched because of being out of breath, gradually straightened up under the angry cursing.

Shen Lianyu looked at his puzzled eyes and suddenly wanted to laugh.

He gave a low laugh, and his distorted eyes gradually calmed down: "Yes, for such a person who has nothing to do with me, I am willing to bear the guilt towards my parents all my life, and let the flame of pain burn my heart forever... ..."

"Do you know why?"

"Why?" Tiandao looked at him fiercely, as if he wanted to knock Shen Lianyu's head open to see what went wrong inside.

He really didn't understand that the human being in front of him obviously wanted to go back very much, and he was obviously in great pain because he couldn't go back, but he didn't want to go back!

Shen Lianyu glanced at him, and said in an extremely gentle voice, "Because I love him."

"Love?" Tiandao sneered angrily: "This is just something you humans imagined to deceive yourself!"

He couldn't help stimulating the person in front of him: "Do you think that person is the same as a low-level creature like you? He is the same existence as me! He will never give you the feedback you want, he is just using you! "

To this day, Tiandao is still angry at Venerable Yushen's betrayal.

That guy is obviously just like him, a projection of the rules of the world in this world.

After birth, Tiandao chose to live in the spiritual veins, but Venerable Yushen chose a human body, allowing himself to become weak and restricted by rules.

When the Jiuyou Passage appeared, both he and Yushen realized that the Jiuyou Passage was a manifestation of the rules, and the world was about to be destroyed.

He didn't want to die, and Yushen told him that they could use a formation to suppress the Jiuyou Passage and delay the day of destruction.

But Yushen didn't tell him that the price was that they would fall into a deep sleep forever.

Tiandao has never figured out why Yushen made such a choice. The meaning of his existence should be to protect himself, not those short-lived ants!

Looking at the unconcealable resentment on Tiandao's face, Shen Lianyu said with a little pity: "You are very sad, you can see every inch of this world, you can see people's struggles, but you can never understand ours. Choice, our emotions."

"You didn't understand why Venerable Yushen, who lived and died with you, chose the road of self-imprisonment. Now, you still don't understand why I reject you..."

Tiandao has the instinct to survive, but has no emotions.

He will be afraid of death, but he will not feel sad because of the death of Venerable Yushen, obviously they were born together.

Shen Lianyu thought that maybe since he instinctively chose the spirit vein as his body, everything today was doomed.

He didn't want to continue talking with him.

Shen Lianyu raised his head with a calm expression: "Let me go back, it doesn't make sense for you to keep me here, even if my body loses consciousness in the outside world, Master doesn't. He can go to the core of the spirit vein and lay down the formation , end it all."

Shen Lianyu's calm look was very glaring to Tiandao, he couldn't help but sneered: "Do you think I can't do anything if I can't send you away?"

Shen Lianyu glanced at him, calmly shook his head and said, "Of course not, you must have other backers."

Tiandao smiled complacently, nodded and said: "It's good that you know, since that's the case, why not—"

Shen Lianyu didn't give him a chance to continue, and interrupted: "There are only a few methods you can use. Who is it this time, is it innocent? He disappeared too cleanly in Donglu Island, and the sky is broken. Jianzong searched with the soul lamp but couldn't find it, did you connect to the spirit vein in advance?"

He shook his head slightly, feeling that Tiandao was pitifully stupid: "Jianzun Wuwang is not an obedient person, whether you use him or he uses you, it can't be said!"

"You—" Shen Lianyu finished what Tiandao wanted to say ahead of time, and his eyes were about to burst into flames with anger.

Just when he was furious and was about to quarrel with Shen Lianyu, the white mist around him suddenly shook and rippled layer after layer.

Such a change made Tiandao calm down. He looked at Shen Lianyu sullenly, and said with a sneer, "You can just show off! Even if you guessed Wuwang, so what? Guessing it doesn't mean you can deal with him!"

"Since you don't want to go back, then you can stay here and wait! When the dust in your mouth settles, you can go out naturally."

After Tiandao finished speaking, he didn't continue to talk nonsense with him, but melted into the mist as quietly as he appeared.

Got it!

Shen Lianyu became anxious.

——The reason why he provoked Tiandao again and again was because he was afraid of such a scene.

Although Tiandao had nothing to do with him, he was also trapped by Tiandao. He didn't know what was going on outside, so he could only let Master deal with Wu Wang and Tiandao's backhands alone.

This made him inevitably a little worried.

Shen Lianyu knew that he couldn't wait here forever, so he sat down cross-legged, trying to break the cage of illusion by himself and wake up early.

To his surprise, it was much easier to do than he imagined.

He just concentrated his energy to feel his own body. It didn't take long before he found where his body was, and then he gradually recovered his five senses. The warm body temperature came from his chest, and he felt it together with another person's heartbeat.

Plop, plop

A steady and strong heartbeat came through the fabric, making Shen Lianyu feel at ease.

This is the sound of Master's heartbeat, which he is already very familiar with.

Just hearing this familiar heartbeat, his soul couldn't help but swayed by it, and at the moment his soul was in turmoil, the white mist in front of him faded away like a tide.

Opening his eyes again, he has returned to his body.

Han Zhi carried him behind his back, not showing any signs of panic and impatience, walking steadily and firmly on the stone steps step by step.

Noticing that the breathing at the shoulder and neck had changed, he turned his head slightly, and said lightly: "Are you awake? What did Tiandao tell you?"

Shen Lianyu was stunned for a moment, then completely relaxed, and couldn't help but smile: "Master, you know everything."

Han Zhi gave a faint "hmm", his face looked as calm as usual, but in fact his heart that had been hanging high was slowly let go

Shen Lianyu was right, he knew how Tiandao would manipulate Xiaoyu, but he just didn't know...whether Xiaoyu would agree to Tiandao's request.

After all, he didn't have to get involved in this muddy water.

Shen Lianyu leaned on his shoulder, didn't mention the matter of getting down, and let him continue to go up the mountain with her on his back.

On the mountain road, only the sound of regular footsteps echoed.

After a while, Shen Lianyu suddenly let out a low laugh: "Master, were you nervous just now? The current heartbeat is your usual heartbeat."

The heartbeat before... was too fast.

Han Zhi's raised footsteps froze, and after a while, he continued to walk as if nothing had happened.

"Come down and go by yourself."

He gestured to put the man down.

Shen Lianyu smiled and stretched out his arms, wrapping his arms tightly around his neck.

"No, master carry me!"

The laughter sounded, breaking the lonely silence on this mountain that seemed to be eternal for countless years.

Shen Lianyu didn't say what he rejected, and he never would.
