Bamboo horse is a world-weary male protagonist

"I'll help Lin Po look at her injuries." The little girl lowered her head halfway, her cheeks hidden under the broken hair, covering a large shadow.

"Waist card."

The female disciple guarding the cell door said coldly, reaching out to the little girl.

The girl unhurriedly untied the waist badge, handed it over, and put it back around her waist after the inspection was completed.

Gatekeeper disciple: "Master Gu asked you to come?"

The girl nodded.

The gatekeeper handed the key to the girl, stepped aside, and said with relief in his voice, "Master Gu is still worried about Granny Lin."

The girl pursed her lips, without responding or refuting, and walked in silently.

When the girl passed by the cell door, the gatekeeper sighed: "Mrs. Lin, alas, she is so pitiful. In order to protect the female disciple who failed in the task during Huanxi Buddha, she took all the responsibilities."

"If it wasn't for Granny Lin, my sister would probably be punished by the valley owner now, and I don't know what crime she would suffer."

When she said this, she thought of the criminal punishment Lin Po was currently receiving, and her tone was frightened, and she said to the girl seriously: "After you go in, you must help Lin Po heal her injuries. If you need anything, just call me, don't be polite."

The girl didn't answer, and her figure disappeared in the darkness.

The dungeon is dank and dark.

The smell of blood, excrement and urine, and the body odor of snakes, rats, insects and flies are mixed together, choking and pungent.

The girl walked towards the deepest point with a clear goal, and her feet stepped on the extremely thin and narrow dark corridor, making the sound of pedaling footsteps.

The further you go inside, the stronger the stench, and there are painful |groans|groans| from both sides, as well as the soft sound of the chains when the people locked inside move their bodies.

The girl walked into the depths without looking sideways, and stopped in front of the innermost iron gate of the entire dungeon.

The blood pooled outside the iron gate completely wet the soles of the girl's shoes, and the stench spread over the surface, making the girl couldn't help covering her mouth and nose with her hands, and tears rolled down her eyes.

"Lin Po, I'm Xiaoyao."

"I'm here to save you."

In the empty and dead cell, there was the sound of iron chains touching "dang lang, dong lang". After an unknown amount of time, there was a hoarse and deep voice.

"It's Xiao Yao'er...cough cough..."

The voice sounded like a dying old man coughing violently after saying this.

But such a violent cough seemed to be related to the injury, and her coughing stopped abruptly, followed by a sound similar to vomiting.

The blood outside the dungeon was pushed to flow out more, mixed with bloody foreign objects that seemed to be pieces of internal organs.

"Lin Po, Lin Po, are you okay!"

Xiaoyao was so frightened that she was at a loss, and quickly took out the key to open the cell door.

She tried|inserted|inserted|into|the keyhole, but her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't align the key with the keyhole accurately.

The girl grabbed her right hand firmly with her left hand, trying to stabilize her movements.

But not only her hands were shaking, but her arms were shaking uncontrollably.

He missed the key and fell into the water with a snap, splashing red and black blood.

The girl knelt down trembling, kneeling in the sewage, and picked up the key again.

The veins on her forehead tensed up, she cursed herself in a low voice, and after trying dozens of times, she finally succeeded in unlocking the big lock of the cell door, and rushed inside.

After seeing the scene in front of her clearly, Xiao Yao was nailed to the spot as if struck by lightning, motionless.

"Lin... mother-in-law?"

Xiao Yao raised her head halfway, staring at the old man who was firmly nailed to death on the execution rack by a long sharp needle.

There is not even a piece of intact flesh on the old man, the bones protrude from the joints of the limbs, and there are traces of being completely pierced by a sharp knife on the side of the waist. You can even vaguely see the broken internal organs that are constantly wriggling in the abdominal cavity and the small pink half hanging outside. intestines.

"Lin Po, Lin Po, I'll save you now, I'll save you now!"

Xiaoyao struggled to climb towards the execution frame hanging in the mid-air of the cell, took out a small dagger hidden in advance, and ruthlessly smashed the iron chains that bound the old man.

"Cho--! Cho--!"

There was sound of gold and jade clashing, and sparks flew, but there were only very shallow and thin scratches left on the iron chain, but the dagger in Xiaoyao's hand was smashed with many gaps, and it was about to be shattered.

"Xiao Yaoer...cough cough...Xiao Yaoer"

"Lin Po, I'm here, I'm here!"

The old man wriggled his lips and said something in a low voice, but the voice was too low, mixed with the sound of swallowing blood foam between his lips and the sound of air leaking in his throat.

Xiao Yao put her ear on the old man's lips and sobbed softly: "Lin Po, what are you going to say, Lin Po?"

"I said, don't save me, I'm doing it voluntarily, cough cough..."

Hot blood sprayed into Xiaoyao's ears, and the scorching temperature slid down the pinnae, making Xiaoyao break down and cry uncontrollably.

"Lin Po, why did Master Gu treat you like this?!"

"It's just that Huanxi Buddha's mission failed, why does he torture you like this!"

"I'm going to find him for an explanation!"

"Ask him what he wants to do!"

She was so angry that she dropped the dagger in her hand, turned her head and planned to jump off the execution rack, and die with the owner of the valley.

"Xiao Yaoer, hurry up, come back quickly..."

The old man begged in a low voice, exerting all his strength, bleeding from his lips: "Don't go, find the owner of the valley, mother-in-law, I am already old, when I grow up, just die."

"You, you have to live well."

When Xiaoyao heard that Granny Lin still cared about her in such a situation, her voice became hoarse from crying: "Grandma Lin, why do we still obey the orders of the owner of the valley? Why don't we just fight him?"

"Our Broken Star Valley has always been free and unrestrained, but since the deputy valley owner inherited the position of the valley owner, what kind of life have we been living here!"

"So many elder sisters are forced to seduce disciples from major cultivation sects in order to get them to join us in destroying Qianqingzong. Po Lin, you lead a team to do the task, and the task is to force a plain A man who doesn't know each other goes to marry a woman, and if he fails, he has to accept such a heavy punishment."

Her eyes were red, and she roared in a low voice: "Your family members are held in the hands of the valley owner, and you have to bear it, but I am different."

"My father and elder brother died long ago in the previous war. I was brought up by you, Mrs. Lin. The owner of the valley has no handle on me at all. I don't need to obey his orders at all. !"

Seeing Xiaoyao's anger becoming more and more uncontrollable, Lin Po tried hard to stop her, but there was only the sound of wind leaking from her throat.

In desperation, the old man could only endure the severe pain and shook his head, hoping that Xiaoyao would not go to make trouble.

Xiaoyao was stimulated by the old man's miserable expression, and she began to lose her mind.

She snuggled tightly under the execution rack, stared at the blood on the ground, and muttered to herself: "Lin Po, I, I think those who said they were taken away by the owner of the valley for healing must have been killed by the owner of the valley." There's no way we're going to wait until they come back... we've all been lied to by him."

"He may not be our valley owner at all... The great battle back then was also inexplicably fought... I, I even suspect that he was the one who led the army to attack Broken Star Valley!"

She burst into tears and couldn't stop sobbing.

The seriously injured old man is her only support in this world, if she can't save Granny Lin, then she will become alone again.

Her only family member was about to leave her.

The girl's pale complexion turned a strange red.

She suddenly felt very hot all over her body, as if her whole body had been thrown into some kind of alchemy furnace for refining and roasting for 81 days, her whole body was about to turn into a puddle of water.

"Why...why...we have to follow his orders...why, Lin Po, you have to be trapped here and suffer like this..."

"Why... why..."

The girl grabbed her hair tightly, her body was too hot and heavy to stand up straight, and she slowly fell to her knees.

Anger, pain, sadness, and despair completely enveloped her.Her mind was buzzing, as if something was trying to break through the shackles, breaking through the shackles of the rules that all the disciples of Broken Star Valley took for granted, but in fact they didn't make sense at all.

"Little Yaoer, little Yaoer!"

The old man was so startled by the scene in front of him that he couldn't help but let out a low cry, and looked at the girl in front of him, with fiery red wings emerging from behind, and his whole body was wrapped in layers of thick smoke and fire.

In the end it turned into a flaming baby bird!

The flames on the girl's body condensed into a thick blood-colored mist, spreading to all directions overwhelmingly.

The old man thought that he was going to be burned alive, but he didn't think that after the thick fog stuck to his body, it would be more effective than any panacea.

The rotten and inflamed wound miraculously began to heal, and even the hideous wound on the side of his waist began to grow new flesh and blood.

The shackles on her body fell off, and her body fell straight from the execution rack, making a muffled sound when she fell to the ground.

Seeing that she was free again, Lin Po hurriedly ran to Xiaoyao, hugged Xiaoyao and ran out of the cell.

If Xiaoyao's current appearance was seen by the guards, she would definitely be arrested as a monster.

She has to get this kid out of here!

But just after he ran out of the cell, the old man was completely shocked by everything outside.

The spraying fire mist spread in all directions, and all the disciples who came into contact with the fire mist began to hug their heads with distorted faces.

Intense flames also began to emerge from their bodies, and huge wings burst out from their backs.

It has become one after another flaming female bird!

"Xiao Yaoer, Xiao Yaoer, what's going on?"

The old man looked around in a daze, holding the unconscious girl tightly in his arms.

The old man really didn't know what to do at this moment.

She even thought that she was dreaming, or that she was dead, and entered some firebird hell that she had never heard of.

Until the old man suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his back, until she saw hot smoke and flames starting to emerge from her body, until she realized that a pair of huge wings stretched out from her back, shaking the muscles of her back , the body can soar into the air at will.

She turned into a fiery old bird!

The old man fainted completely.

Before falling to the ground, someone yelled: "The owner of the valley has disappeared!"

***

Broken Star Valley is located behind the northernmost mountains, the terrain is dangerous, and there are few people, and no one has ever visited.

Therefore, when two handsome young men with weapons and magic weapons appeared menacingly outside the palace gate of Broken Star Valley, the female disciples of Broken Star Valley were more curious than scared, and many of them hid near the palace gate and looked around quietly.

"Come and see! There are two handsome young boys standing outside the door!"

"Is there a younger sister who has a good friend? Do you want someone to go out and ask?"

"If you want to ask, you can ask, I am so sour now that I don't want to watch it anymore. It feels like the two little brothers are the best friends of the same sister. They are going to come here to fight. Whoever wins will come to hug the beauty in Broken Star Valley. return."

"... Can you give me the one who lost the rest?"

"It's a beautiful idea, but to be honest, I want it too."

And when the young man shouted loudly, calling out the owner of the valley, who they have always seen before and after, the female disciples were more frightened than curious, and slipped away from the palace gate and returned to their own rooms. Li stayed honest and didn't dare to join in the fun anymore.

The heavy palace door opened.

A figure slowly walked out of it.

The man's body was clattered with chains, and when he walked, he dragged deep ravines on the ground.

"Little Phoenix," the man said hello to Gu Xi with a smile all over his face.

"Long time no see, stay safe."

When the man looked at Gu Xi, he couldn't hide the enthusiasm in his eyes, and even a blush of excitement appeared on his bronzed skin.

This caused his eyes to burn like fire.

There is the desire for life, the pride and complacency of successful experimental products, the curiosity of a mad scientist, and the never-fading freshness of everything.

He is too familiar with Gu Xi.

Because this is the first character in his thousands of experiments that has awakened self-awareness.

Little by little, he watched this character change from the original ordinary text setting to a pile of code programs that can be manipulated, evolve into a pile of particles that faintly generate quantum force fluctuations, and finally break through the two-dimensional and three-dimensional space barrier and appear as an entity before his eyes.

Ecstasy, excitement, excitement, exhilaration...

There are.

The mood of the newlyweds welcoming their first child may not be more complicated and exciting than his mood at that time.

He has seen this face too many times in the world of books.

Those bright eyes that never admit defeat, no matter who they are, once they have seen them even once, they will never be able to forget them.

What a little phoenix that people can't love enough.

The man spoke softly, like a loving old father.

His voice was the same as the voice from Juju's eyes that day, making Gu Xi and He Chengyuan instantly understand that this person was the real culprit behind everything.

"Hongyue."

He Chengyuan stared slightly, opened his lips and said the other party's name.

This person had saved his and Gu Xi's lives in the comprehension conference.

Who would have thought that it would be this man who controls everything behind the scenes!

When Hong Yue heard his name being called, he froze for a moment, and then carefully sized He Chengyuan with his eyes.

After seeing He Chengyuan's glazed pupils, he blinked, and it took him a while to react, and said in surprise: "Oh, I remembered you."

"Little Phoenix's little boyfriend, you took care of me a lot before."

He chuckled and looked He Chengyuan up and down: "I didn't expect you to remember me until now after I said a few words to you when you were young. This memory is really good."

"The core of the database was actually replaced in your eyes. Are you comfortable after suffering all these years?"

Because when Xu Guang developed the database, Hong Yue also worked alongside him, so he was very familiar with the data content in it.

Those eyes are the crystallization of pain.

Although it looks clear and bright now, as long as those eyes are still there, no matter what kind of things people with eyes encounter, they are doomed to end in tragedy.

That's it for the setup.

No one can change it.

For He Chengyuan who owns the core of the database, the truth of the world is the despair that can never be shaken off.

Hong Yue hoped that He Chengyuan could find out the truth, and then die of complete decay in despair.

This will make him feel very happy.

After all, if it wasn't for the presence of He Chengyuan back then, he would have transferred his consciousness to Gu Xi's mind long ago, and gained a new life in the real world.

There is no need to come back to this book to suffer so many years of crimes.

"The identity of my body is Little Phoenix's uncle."

"I originally thought that after killing Xiao Fenghuang's father with his own hands, I would put Xiao Fenghuang by my side and raise him well. I would happily call him nephew every day and let him call my little uncle gratefully. When he becomes an excellent adult follower After you kill each other, take his body back."

"I never thought that the two of you would switch identities, and you couldn't fulfill my little wish."

"But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

The iron chain on Hong Yue's body is a program that Xu Guang helped write, which can not only help his soul to be fixed in this body, but also save his life in times of crisis.

Watching Gu Xi and He Chengyuan sacrifice the magic weapon, the surging spiritual power fluctuations overwhelming the sky, Hong Yue laughed, and his body gradually became transparent.

So all the attacks from Gu Xi and He Chengyuan passed through his body without causing any damage at all.

He coughed and said solemnly: "I can't beat you, so I decided to run away."

"Don't worry, you can't find me. When I ask Xu Guang to restart and clear all the programs in the entire book, everything will start all over again."

"This time I will definitely help you reset a more exciting confrontational identity. I don't believe that the two of you can get together again."

He laughed arrogantly and waved his hands: "Goodbye to the new world, my lovely little Phoenix."
