seven relics

After Mu Xinzhu finished speaking, two sets of wooden ladders were lowered from the top of the tent. Xingshan and Lian Jiangyue each jumped onto a set of ladders, counted thirteen floors from bottom to top, and went to the thirteenth floor to find books. .

Most of the books on the shelves are named in the format of place names plus person names.The bindings of the books are all exactly the same, with blue covers and the titles of the books written in small seal script on the spine, much like scripture booklets.Lian Jiangyue searched for a while, and found another book about the Beggar Gang: "List of Eighteen Generation Elders of the Beggar Gang". "One Hundred and Six Thousand and 340 Records of Bamboo Murders".

Lian Jiangyue took out the book, and the title of the book was simply written on the cover, also in small seal script.Before he could open it, Mu Xinzhu's voice sounded again: "It's rude to flip through other people's memories casually, do you know?" His voice was like a bell.

As he finished speaking, a tree branch hung down from the sky, rolled up the book and stuffed it back into place.Lian Jiangyue looked up, but she couldn't see the top of the tent.

He said: "That book means that you have killed more than [-] people?"

Mu Xinzhu said disdainfully: "It's been more than 300 years, this number should have been updated long ago."

Lian Jiangyue continued to look for books, and said softly: "Then you killed a lot of people, starting from the Qin Dynasty?"

Mu Xinzhu got angry again: "None of your business! Aren't you in a hurry to find that broken pen? Don't hurry, you don't have much time!"

Then, he said in a strange way: "Wu Youshi is a sword that someone forged from the half of a meteorite from outside the sky, and this person also used the other half of the meteorite to make a scabbard. Someone who has good things happened here Three characters were carved on the scabbard and body of the Meteorite sword, giving it a name, the name is, Ending Sword."

Lian Jiangyue got goosebumps all over her body, Xingshan walked up to him at this time, and said to him: "Master mentioned this sword before he passed away, saying that it was made of two stones found on a mountain called Heiyu Mountain. Are those two stones meteorites?" "! Shan! And! 氵! タ!"

Mu Xinzhu also said: "The sword has killed countless people, absorbed so much essence of blood energy, the sword body and the scabbard have become human, the moment they turned into a human, the sword body left the scabbard, it can be said that they escaped The sword does not want to be put into the sheath, and the sheath waits for the sword. The sword is the master of nothing, and the sheath attracts more and more weapons that are thrown away by others or can no longer be used because of its own aura and encounters. by his side. He is both the weapon mound and the person who guards the weapon mound."

A white figure flashed in Lian Jiangyue's heart: "Quiet monk..."

"That's right, the monk Liao Que is Wu Youshi's scabbard."

Lian Jiangyue suddenly realized: "No wonder Wuzangtong didn't dare to approach him. Wuzangtong is a part of Wuyoushi. Even if it is still the sword body, it will return to the sheath when it is close to the scabbard."

Xingshan was confused and asked: "Who is the monk?"

Lian Jiangyue said: "I'll tell you later," he asked Mu Xinzhu again: "They are all inhuman spirits, so what is Lian, my hatred, and what am I?"

Mu Xinzhu's voice became louder: "If you don't look for books easily, if you only know how to ask questions, do you think I have a hundred thousand reasons?"

Lian Jiangyue smiled, and climbed up ten floors along the ladder, and saw a book on the bookshelf called "Efang Palace Construction Record", and next to it was a copy of "Wei Di Jing Ke", he knew that he had found Qin Shi's bookshelf, He quickly browsed through the titles on this floor, and soon, he found "Mu Xinzhu's Murder Record Volume [-]".He took out the book, opened it, and read it, only to see the words "Puyang", "Xingdao", "Bark" and "Young Children" on the first line of the first page. A dozen or so branches came down, clawed at the book, and beat him.Fortunately, Lian Jiangyue reacted quickly, avoided all the attacks lightly, returned to the thirteenth floor, and said leisurely: "You don't want me to peep at you, then tell me everything you know."

The shock continued, accompanied by Mu Xinzhu's curse: "Despicable, shameless, cunning, and obscene, you have the same virtue as Wuzang! I think you are hopeless, get out!"

Xing Shan persuaded: "Don't be angry, brother is also impatient for a while, it is rare for someone to know so many things about Wuzangtong. You also want to find out about the two sentences of life and death. We go out, and you will lose two Great help."

Mu Xinzhu cursed and said again: "Lian Jiangyue, you are just relying on Wuzangtong's ability to do whatever you want!!"

Xingshan went to persuade Lian Jiangyue again: "Brother, let's find that book quickly."

Lian Jiangyue glanced at him, and made a comforting look. Mu Xinzhu was angry, but he didn't drive them out. It seems that to find out Zhu Xinmu's hidden memory, outsiders must help.So there was a sneering smile on his lips, and he continued to provoke Mu Xinzhu, saying: "I see, does that story say that when you first took the shape of a human, the bark on your body hadn't completely faded, and you were killed?" A passing toddler saw it, and he yelled monster, monster, you beat him to death, why do you avoid this story so much and don't want others to know?"

When he said this, he thought of something, frowned, and thought: "You are a bamboo, how can you have bark on your body? But if it is the memory of bamboo heartwood, what is the title of the book?"

He scanned the surroundings, and became even more puzzled: "Over the years, Zhu Xinmu hasn't killed a single person?"

Xing Shan said: "Although he is a demon, a demon may not necessarily kill people, right?"

Lian Jiangyue looked at Xingshan, and said: "Do you still remember the two pieces of bamboo that Zhu Xinmu hit us when we were hiding on the beam of the thatched cottage? Ordinary people, or anyone with mediocre skills, how could they avoid it? They all have to die. He said that Mu Xinzhu asked someone to kill him, and in order to save his life, he didn't kill one or two people?"

Xing Shan pursed his lips and said, "It's really weird to say that..."

The two were contemplating together, Mu Xinzhu said in a trembling voice, "Okay! I'll tell you!"

Lian Jiangyue whispered: "Does he seem to be talking about it?"

Xing Shan nodded, this Mu Xinzhu's behavior was indeed suspicious.But they couldn't figure it out for the time being, so they continued to search for books while listening to Mu Xinzhu's talk.

At this time, the tent was no longer swaying, and the sound of Mu Xinzhu's slow breathing echoed in the tent, which was very heavy, as if he still hadn't vented his anger, but his tone was calm and calm.He said: "Although the meteorite is a visitor from outside the sky, it is just a stone in the final analysis. Whether it is Wuyoushi or Wuzangtong, they can be regarded as stone demons. Lian Jiangyue, you are Wuzangtong, the stone demon and the person born My child, you have been weak since you were young because the human strength and the stone strength in your body are constantly fighting, causing your blood to be out of balance. Now Wuzangtong hides in your shadow, and the strength of the stone has greatly increased. Human power is greatly suppressed, for example, now..."

A gust of wind rose from the ground, blowing open a window in front of Lian Jiangyue.Lian Jiangyue was taken aback, and asked Xingshan: "Is there this window here just now?"

Xing Shan shook his head dully, both of them looked out of the window.Seeing this, Lian Jiangyue was shocked again, but there was some surprise in this shock.He saw out the window that he was sitting in a small car with Fengxu, Fengxu was talking to him with a smile, and he replied with a smile, his heart was moved, and he really wanted to touch it Feng Xuwei listened carefully to what they were talking about, thinking so, he actually heard Feng Xuwei asking him: "What are you doing?"

He actually sat next to Feng Xuwei, there was a skateboard passing by outside, and someone passed by, he opened the glove box on the car, and there was a lot of safety pans pouring out of it, he laughed dumbfoundedly, took one and reached out to hug Feng Xu micro.

He knew it wasn't true.But how much he wished that this was true, how much he wished that he could go back to that night, and get so close to Feng Xuwei again, hug him and kiss him again.

He hugged Feng Xuwei and kissed his face.Their heads and arms bumped against the car window, car door, and car roof again, and the two laughed bursts of laughter. They didn't feel embarrassed at all, they just felt very relaxed and happy.

"Brother!"

Xingshan called out, and the person who pityed Jiangyue returned to the bookshelf.He stared blankly at the bookshelf in front of him, the window disappeared, and Feng Xuwei disappeared.But he still seemed to be able to smell his scent, and there was still residual warmth on his hands.

Mu Xinzhu said quietly: "This is the memory world of demons. Here, people's willpower will become very weak. What's more, Lian Jiangyue has a stone demon in your body who is plotting evil. You are here, and it is easy to be deceived." I will never forget it, and I have something to take away with me.”

Xing Shan tugged at Jiang Yue, and said, "Let's find books quickly!"

Lian Jiangyue asked him: "What did you see from that window just now?"

Xing Shan turned sideways and said, "I saw my senior brother and I were swimming by the river and eating watermelon together..."

Lian Jiangyue smiled and said: "I thought that what I saw in this window was something that never happened."

Xing Shan slightly raised his eyes to glance at him, then immediately looked away, and said with a little regret: "We ate watermelon together."

He looked at the bookshelf again, smiling all over his face: "I found it!"

He pulled out the "Life and Death Judgment Pen", Lian Jiangyue ran over, saw two branches stretched out, picked up the book, opened the book, took out a string of words from the book and threw it into the air.

Xingshan looked at those words, and read: "I found it together with a seven-foot fish-gut sword inside a whale in the belly of a giant snake in the East China Sea. The pen core was soaked in whale oil, and there was a mantra inside the pen holder. It was written: A judgment of the soul , two judgments of cause and effect, three judgments of robbery, and two judgments of life and death. Therefore, this pen is named the pen of life and death.

"I also ran into Taoist Xu Fu on Penglai Island in the belly of a giant snake. I learned that this brush was made of reeds used by Bodhidharma when he crossed the river. One stroke can judge ordinary people. Those who have completed their merits and virtues can go to bliss, and their souls return to the west. Those who practice in the western heavens will be judged, and those who practice well will be free from the suffering of karmic reincarnation, and the third pen can be used to judge all gods and people, and those who have the roots of wisdom and good karma can avoid the catastrophe here."

"Going to the Great Barren Mountains again, I met a man with three faces and one arm. The three souls in the three-faced man were entangled. I learned from others that this pen can separate the soul, so I found two bodies for the three-faced man, separated the soul, and it was done. Great joy. I heard from Sanmian people that there are skilled craftsmen in Yangzhou homesickness who are good at making human faces, so I went.

"Made of skins, split souls in front of the mirror..."

After reading this, the words floating in the air are a bit illegible, as if they were cut in half by someone.

Lian Jiangyue said: "Mu Xinzhu, this memory is incomplete, is this your memory or Zhu Xinmu's memory?"

"My memory is his memory, and his memory is my memory." His voice was a little painful again, and the tent shook slightly.He also said: "Otherwise, what do you want you to do? Why don't you find out if he is hiding something in the corner? The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear! Maybe he has used some tricks to prevent me from finding it!"

Another gust of wind blew in front of Lian Jiangyue.Another window opened in front of him.He saw Linglong Xing lying on his lap and looking at him without blinking, while he was holding a notebook and reading something intently.They sat in a yellowed cave.Linglong Xing's eyes are as bright as stars.

Lian Jiangyue subconsciously grabbed the necklace around her neck, but she caught Linglongxing's hair, which was warm to the touch.He looked up and looked at him with his jewel-like emerald green eyes.He asked him: "Why don't you continue reading? Ayi, what are you thinking?"

This is something that never happened again, and this is another distorted memory.

This is another period of concern and concern for him.

He couldn't help stretching out his hand to gently stroke Linglongxing's hair, looked at the book in his hand, and continued to read: "I will come back here again, I miss my daughter, Ainur."

He said, "If you want to go home, go home."

Linglongxing laughed, and grabbed the braid he made for him: "You go back with me, okay?"

He smiled and sat on Lian Jiangyue, put his arms around his neck, and talked to him affectionately: "What is good in the world? There are unrighteous people everywhere, hateful people everywhere, everywhere They are all fickle people."

"You have such deep affection for Feng Xuwei, why didn't he switch to someone else's arms as soon as he didn't follow his wishes."

The wind blew the sand, and the thoughts of Lian Jiangyue were also shaken by the blowing, and he couldn't help but agree: "You are right..."

"You and I stay here, we can do whatever we want, and we'll be happy every day."

"That was a really good day." Lian Jiangyue said, hugging Linglong Xing tightly.

Linglongxing held his face and kissed him: "Then you promise me that you will always be with me, stay here and never go out again."

Lian Jiangyue opened her mouth, wanting to promise him, wanting to nod, at this moment, his neck hurt and his eyes went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Xingshan leaning in front of him, lightly Patting his face lightly, he shouted in a hurry: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother!"

Xingshan was holding a book in his hand, seeing that he opened his eyes, his anxious expression remained undiminished, and he said, "You froze there for a long time, so I had to hit you with a book, are you okay?"

Lian Jiangyue shook her head and sat on the ground.He said, "I'll take a break."

He really misses the moonlight and the breeze at night in the Happy Land, and also misses the comfort, tranquility, and eternity of the Forgotten Land... Now that he thinks about it, those yellow sands are so lovable, after all There he will not be hungry or tired, where he will become eternal, beyond the shackles of time, and realize true freedom.

No, I can't think of it that way... He almost died there, the Forgotten Land will forget himself, and the Happy Land hides murderous intentions... What happened in those windows was just his wishful thinking to escape.

Lian Jiangyue suddenly had a headache, and looked at the tent again, the words that had been cut in half were still suspended in the air.Mu Xinzhuxu muttered: "Impossible, impossible, look for it again, is there a second volume! Impossible, it must be hidden by him, where is it hidden? Where is it hidden? ?”

Many branches hung down from the sky, and I rummaged through the messy pile of books.Lian Jiangyue looked at those branches, and suddenly asked: "Why are you using branches while you are bamboo?"

He asked again: "Why is bamboo heart wood a tree demon, but bamboo pieces are used?"

"Is it possible that you are really alone?"

"What do you mean?" Mu Xinzhu trembled.

"With one sentence, you are divided into two halves, and your memory is also divided into two halves, which is incomplete. Doesn't it mean that you were originally complete? If you are two independent individuals, then the memory should also be stored by one person. One, one person owns a library, doesn't he? You are the bamboo demon, he is the tree demon, your living habits are different, your essence is different, how can the way of looking at things be the same, how can your memory be the same? same?"

In an instant, the sky and the earth trembled, and the tent shook violently again.Mu Xinzhu whimpered, Xing Shan supported the bookshelf, and said, "Is it really a split personality?"

Lian Jiangyue pressed her temples, her head hurt even more, and she said, "Otherwise, how can I explain it?"

He said: "He's running away from something, just like I'm running away from something. I went to the window. Although it's still me, it's not me anymore..."

He holds the gemstone necklace around his neck.Those suspended words were also trembling violently, and the side of the gesture was crumbling, walking up the mountain was like enlightenment: "Mirror! Their souls divided in front of the mirror, they saw through the mirror..." He paused, pulled out a book, and compared Facing the many half-words floating in the air, he said excitedly: "So Zhu Xinmu felt that the pen was in Mu Xinzhu's hand, and Mu Xinzhu felt that it was in Zhu Xinmu's hand. The last time you saw it was a mirror. .”

Mu Xinzhu said: "My head hurts, it hurts! You all come out for me! I won't look for it anymore! I won't look for it anymore!"

Lian Jiangyue also had a splitting headache, and her surroundings were shaking even more violently. He wanted to vomit very much, and wanted to vomit something out of his body.

Xing Shan kept flipping through the book, saying: "No, I must find that pen, Mu Xinzhu, I will help you complete those words."

He searched in the book: "This word should be, 事, Cheng, that is, this word..."

When he found a word, he tore it off and threw it into the sky. Those words seemed to have grown legs, and he ran to the side of the suspended words, forming complete characters one after another with those incomplete words.

Xing Shan kept tearing up the words, Mu Xinzhu cried out in pain: "Get out!!"

He sounded so miserable, so weak.

The incomplete paragraphs of text in the air gradually took shape, and it was written: things are accomplished, enlightenment is realized, and I am.

As soon as Xingshan raised his head, he said urgently: "Beside the word "herringbone", he!"

He was busy looking for the word "he".

And Mu Xinzhu seemed to be unable to resist anymore, with a scream, all the books in the library flew up, the bookshelves shook, the wind howled, and Lian Jiangyue was blown away too, the wind was too strong, his I couldn't open my eyes at all, and I heard a hoarse and gloomy voice saying in my ear: "Stay here, and all your regrets will no longer be regrets."

Even though he closed his eyes at this time, he could still see Fengxu looking at him with a smile, Linglongxing blinking those emerald green eyes, and Lian Wuchen shaking on a small boat Wood pulp, bright moonlight, long river.He called out to him, "Dad."

Since then, he is no longer alone. He has relatives in the world and someone he can rely on.

But these are not true.

"These can be true, the past can be changed, Lian Jiangyue, as long as you are willing, with my power, time can be reversed, and you can make up for your regrets. There is regret medicine in the world, and it is with me. You Do you regret that you did not kill Bian? It is true that you did not kill Zhao Youzhi, leaving them to gossip? Do you regret that you did not kill Bian Rugou? If it is true that you killed him in the rumors, you were bloodbathed The Bian family, I don’t think those people in the Jianghu dare to give a fart. It’s because you didn’t do anything, you were merciful, and you haven’t reached the limit. They think they can make you submit, and they will punish you. It’s just because of you If you don’t follow a set of values ​​with them, they will suppress you and eradicate you. They are the ones who are unreasonable.”

Lian Jiangyue was panting heavily and had a headache so bad that she could hardly think, so she could only let Wuzangtong's words keep pouring into his ears and into his mind.

He managed to utter a few words: "Wu Zang Tong, shut up..."

"Shut up? Those people should shut up! What about punishing evil and promoting good? Think about it, have you ever done a bad thing? Have you ever hurt someone? You hurt yourself! You cut off your right hand ah!"

Lian Jiangyue was in a daze, her heart was dark, unable to refute, and she couldn't refute, what Wuzangtong said was exactly what he thought in his heart.But how is it possible... How is it possible that the person who knows him best is this gloomy, evil, hating and murderous guy all the time?

Lian Jiangyue shook her head vigorously, thinking in her heart: "He is bewitching me!"

Wu Zangtong immediately said: "Confused you? Do I need to deceive you? This is my territory now, and your body has been controlled by me. Open your eyes and see, you can't get out! I It’s helping you recognize the truth, recognize yourself.”

The wind died down, Lian Jiangyue opened her eyes, it was pitch black.He couldn't see anything, and he seemed to see everything.It was like the iron wall erected by the shadow to protect him during a sandstorm.He tapped the darkness around him, it was extremely hard and cold.

Wuzangtong said: "If it weren't for me, would you be able to express your true thoughts? Can you face your true self?"

"If it wasn't for me, would your right hand come back?"

"If it weren't for me, you would have died in the sandstorm."

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even be able to climb a wall."

"Goodness is nothing but the excuse of the weak, the fear of the weak."

"How about it, do you want to punish those hypocrites with me?"

Lian Jiangyue said: "What exactly do you want to do?"

Wuzangtong laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, are you asking about my purpose in life?"

"I want to be free, follow my own heart, and live without being disturbed by others! So I want to become strong, so strong that no one can oppose me, and no one can tell me what to do."

Lian Jiangyue was trembling all over, isn't this what he thought?

Is this... is it his idea or Wuzangtong's idea?

Wuzangtong seemed to be able to see through his mind completely, and said: "What is the difference between me and you? You are me, and I control you."

"Manipulation?" Lian Jiangyue was really dissatisfied with this word, "Do you think you are playing a game?"

Even if he is consistent with Wuzangtong's pursuit, it doesn't mean he has to succumb to him.He was groping in the dark, crying out for crying rain in his heart.

Wuzangtong laughed wildly: "Hahaha, looking for Kuiyu? Here, this broken sword can't beat me."

"Game! You are right, I am playing the game, I am the real player! You are just a character played by me! For these days, I have endured you, let you, you think you can control Me? When I was at the Bao family, I was impulsive, but after that time, I learned that in order to do what you want, to confuse you, and to make you more dependent on my strength, I will help you and protect you , I have been waiting, waiting for the day when you completely rely on me, and the day when you can no longer live without my strength... I never thought that you would allow Mu Xinzhu to come to this inhuman realm, what a blessing from God Me too, I don't have to wait any longer, what wood, what bamboo, what crying rain, all are not my opponents!"

Lian Jiangyue's hands felt cold, he felt the crying rain, and immediately drew out his long sword, swung it and slashed.With a clang, nothing happened, but Wuzangtong laughed at him: "It is said that Kuyu is trash here, you have no choice now, you have to stay here if you don't want to, here is Your eternal place, hahahaha, your body is my body, from now on, no scabbard in the world can seal me, no one in the world can trap me, I am truly free!"

Lian Jiangyue put the crying rain on the ground, clenched the hilt of her sword, and smiled: "You game... Xiao Qiu is right...you can't run around on the map because you haven't reached the full level. If you run away, you will die, and there will be no game. You have been planning to level up and upgrade. Now that you have reached the full level, you think you can go wherever you want..."

He slashed out with his sword again, and anger surged in his heart, and he said, "I have no choice? I don't believe it!"

In the darkness, nothing happened.

Lian Jiangyue gritted her teeth: "What is good, what is evil, what is regret, what is making up, what is the real me, what is the real me... I am me..."

He stabbed his sword into the ground, his wrist fell down, and he cut the darkness on the ground with all his strength: "I decide for myself, how I want to live, I have the final say, you are my shadow, so I don't want to It's a shadow!"

Crying Rain vibrated and broke with a bang.

"It's useless, it's useless, hahaha." Wuzangtong laughed.

Lian Jiangyue grasped the hilt of Kui Yu's sword and stabbed towards the ground. The black shadow under his feet was so thick that he couldn't even see his own feet, he couldn't see his hands, he could only feel his hands. Li was holding the hilt of the sword, but his strength was getting weaker and weaker, and he could hardly hold the hilt.He heard Wuzangtong’s piercing laughter, and his heart was full of resentment. He really hated it, and he was really unwilling. When he was in the Bian family, the youngest of the Bian family concealed the relationship between Wuzangtong and him and refused to let him choose , now, he still has no choice?He can only stay in this dark place for a lifetime?

He really couldn't swallow this breath, he wanted to choose, he wanted to knock on this hard rock!

Suddenly, a white light pierced through, and a crack appeared in Lian Jiangyue's eyes.

Wuzangtong seemed a little flustered: "How can a person be separated from his own shadow? A person cannot live without a shadow! Otherwise, otherwise..."

Lian Jiangyue hurriedly held the hilt of the sword with both hands and continued to cut.His right hand suddenly felt a sharp pain, and he couldn't feel his right hand anymore.

"Wu Zang Tong, you..."

He took his right hand!Well, he didn't want this right hand a long time ago, so if he wants to take it, he can take it!

Lian Jiangyue held the hilt of the sword with her left hand, exerted more force, and continued to cut. He would never give up at this time.because……

"My way, I choose myself!"

A white light suddenly appeared, and Lian Jiangyue heard Xingshan call: "Senior brother!" He heard him say again: "Qu Jiuchuan?? Why are you here? Dangerous! Don't come close!"

Lian Jiangyue dimly saw Xingshan and Qu Jiuchuan again, the two of them were standing together, as if they were looking at him.He really wanted to walk towards them, but suddenly a puff of black smoke flew in front of him, and the black smoke whirled and gathered into a bunch, rushing towards Qu Jiuchuan.

"Be careful, it's nothing...!"

Before she could finish her words, Lian Jiangyue leaned back, the stormy waves crashing against the shore in her ears, and the salty sea breeze in her nostrils.He lost consciousness.
