After Marrying the Lord of the Underworld

The moment he saw Jing Xian, Lu Yingjiu was surrounded by a huge sense of security.

After the peace of mind, there is a strong tiredness.

Before he could even say a word, he fell asleep.

Since then his consciousness has been hazy.

He heard the howling of servants, the clash of weapons, the terrible sound of bones being crushed.

Barely opened his eyes, the wound on his body was bandaged, and the faint yin qi brought a slight coolness, effectively suppressing the pain.

Jing Xian hugged him and walked on the dark path.

There are invisible abysses on both sides of the road, and they are all twisted and crazy faces. They are obviously servants sent by the heaven, but they are more terrifying than the ghost world.

Lu Yingjiu only glanced at it, but her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't open her eyes again, and she shouted, "Jing Xian..."

Jing Xian said in a low voice: "Go on to sleep, I will be here later."

Lu Yingjiu responded vaguely, and fell asleep peacefully again.

In the dream is Lengxiang.

When they wake up completely, there are no enemies around them, and they are in a huge hall.

It may be a bit inaccurate to say it is a palace.

Its whole is very oppressive, with no wind and no other living things, just like a mausoleum.

From the floor to the wall to the ceiling, it is all gray, without any decorations, and the surrounding area is too big to see the end.Only the statues of attendants standing on both sides are lifelike. They are nearly [-] meters high, holding martial arts, or standing solemnly or preparing to fight.

When Lu Yingjiu moved lightly, Jingxian noticed it, and his tone was pleasantly surprised: "Are you awake?"

"Hmm... where is this place?" Lu Yingjiu asked.

"The end." Jing Xian said, "The end of everything."

He stopped and put down Lu Yingjiu gently.

Lu Yingjiu was still a little dizzy, barely holding on to the base of the statue, and sat down to rest.

Only now did he notice that the bone-deep wound on his right hand was tied up with a bandage, and he could smell slightly bitter herbs.He tried to move his wrist sexually, but apart from numbness, there was no pain.

Probably Jing Xian used some healing method from the ghost world, which was extremely effective.

He also changed into clean and loose clothes, and the blood and water stains were gone.

Jing Xian handed over the water, Lu Ying took a sip of the wine and smiled: "You still brought so many things?"

"Of course." Jing Xian also sat beside him and smiled, "I've always been like this."

Jing Xian also had freshly coagulated blood on his hands.

You can't see it anywhere else, but it's definitely hurt.

It was the first time that Lu Yingjiu saw him injured, and he didn't know if he was injured while blocking the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts, or during the battle with the attendants.Although Jing Xian didn't show it on his face, he still felt a strong tiredness.

Seeing him looking over, Jing Xianman said indifferently: "It's okay, it will be fine in a while. The attendants can't catch up here, you can take a rest and sleep later."

He smiled: "The doll you just killed is the guard here. After it dies, the other attendants will be leaderless." He kissed Lu Yingjiu's forehead again, "My wife is really amazing."

Lu Yingjiu said: "I'm fine, you are the one who should rest."

Without waiting for Jing Xian to refute, he said again: "Your wound hasn't healed yet... If it was normal, it should be fine in a few seconds." He looked at Jing Xian and said seriously, "You are also very tired, right? .”

From the ghost world to the present, Jing Xian has been fighting non-stop for nearly ten days.

Jing Xian was about to say something, but was gently embraced by Lu Yingjiu on his shoulder——

For the first time in his life, he leaned on Lu Yingjiu.

Lu Yingjiu embraced him: "This time, I'll watch over you." He stretched out his hand and stroked Jing Xian's temples gently, just like what Jing Xian did to him before, "Sleep at ease."

Jing Xian was taken aback.

He smiled, relaxed his body, stretched out his arms to hug Lu Yingjiu, and rubbed his side face affectionately.

Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lu Yingjiu has been guarding him like this.

Jing Xian fell into a deep sleep, and still hugged him tightly in his sleep, as if afraid that he would leave suddenly.And Lu Yingjiu stroked the back of his hands and the center of his eyebrows over and over again to comfort him.

The huge hall was empty and there was no threat at all, but Lu Yingjiu still maintained absolute vigilance.Mao Tuanzi was also brought over by Jing Xian, and stood by with his ears to keep watch for them.

It was very quiet around here.

In the dim environment, only the dim sky light descended overhead.In the silence, Lu Yingjiu listened to Jing Xian's shallow breathing, and suddenly realized that they were all still alive.

Well here it is.

Nothing beats this.

After more than 20 minutes, Jing Xian's eyelids moved.

"Are you awake?" Lu Yingjiu looked at him, "Do you want to... eh?"

As soon as Jing Xian turned around, he kissed him.

The lips and teeth are intertwined, and the kiss is inseparable.

After finally separating, Lu Yingjiu was dizzy, and heard Jingxian quickly say: "I searched many places before I saw Mao Tuanzi and found you under its leadership. If it was later, I wouldn't be able to see you. You now Are you still dizzy or not? Does the wound hurt? Do you want me to give you artificial respiration?"

Lu Yingjiu was even more dizzy: "Slow down, slow down, what are you talking about?"

Jing Xian didn't answer, hugged him and kissed him again, and performed the so-called 'artificial respiration'.

Lu Yingjiu didn't recover at first, but he was even more dizzy after being teased like this, his brain seemed to be deprived of oxygen from being kissed.

After parting, he held his head: "Why did you come here suddenly..."

He was obviously very calm before!

Why did she suddenly turn back into a love brain!

Jing Xian said: "I woke up, I have energy again."

Lu Yingjiu: "...I can tell, I shouldn't have let you sleep."

"It's pretty good," Jing Xian thought about it for a while, "I can sleep like this a few more times in the future, it won't have a style."

Lu Yingjiu: "..."

Jingxian seems to have some strange habit.

For the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, there was no time to be more emotional and tender, and it was too late to say love words, they continued to walk in the palace holding hands.

Moving forward in a gray landscape.

Lu Yingjiu said, "You said this is the 'end of everything'?"

"Yes, I have an impression of this palace." Jingxian replied, "Going forward, we will be able to see the source of pollution in the heavenly realm."

"Have you been here?" Lu Yingjiu was a little strange.

Jing Xian said: "My memory is also very fuzzy. It was a long time ago, maybe so long...before I was born."

Going forward, Lu Yingjiu understood what Jing Xian said.

A heavy door appeared in the hall.

It was a very ordinary stone door, weighing at least a hundred tons, but they just pushed it lightly, and the stone door opened with a bang.

The scene behind the door was finally no longer dim.

Bright skylight fell from the sky and shone on the right half of the temple.And the left half is absolutely dark, with bursts of Yin Qi.

There is a clear distinction between light and darkness, dividing the hall into two sides.

On the left, Lu Yingjiu saw countless flying ghosts.

They are broken and broken, drifting, floating and sinking in the yin.

"This is..." Lu Yingjiu slightly opened her eyes.

Jing Xian said: "These are all remnants. If the powerful remnants leave here and go to the ghost world, they will become priests. Maybe I was one of them a long time ago, so I have a vague understanding of this place. impression."

Lu Yingjiu said: "The one on the right should be the human world."

He tentatively walked into the light on the right, but Jing Xian let go of his hand.

"Plop, plop, plop—"

There seemed to be a pulse in the light, trembling with the air and the earth.

That pulse is not alone, it rises and falls one after another, like an ocean—this is a unique movement that the pulses of countless living people are intertwined and gathered.

On both sides of this palace, one side is life and the other side is death.

Lu Yingjiu looked back, Jing Xian was still standing at the stone gate.Mao Tuanzi also wagged his tail and stayed by Jing Xian's side.

Lu Yingjiu asked, "Why don't you come over?"

Jing Xian smiled and shook his head: "We can't get through. We can only be on the other side." He pointed to the dark side.

Lu Yingjiu immediately understood.

The two sides correspond to yin and yang respectively, so he and Jing Xian can only go their own way.

He couldn't see what was in the darkness.

In the same way, Jing Xian couldn't see him on the other side.

They have to separate for a while.

Jing Xian looked at him and said, "Then shall we meet at the finish line?"

"Well," Lu Yingjiu said, "I'll see you at the finish line."

The two looked at each other from a distance, and each stepped into the two sides of the hall.

In the bright light, Lu Yingjiu couldn't help speeding up his pace when he heard the sound of heartbeats.

Faster, faster.

It is said that humans and ghosts have different paths, and their thoughts and concepts are destined to be different.

But this has never been a condition to limit them, it has not been in the past, and it will not be in the future.Love embraces all.

Lu Yingjiu knew that at the end of light and darkness, life and death, Jing Xian was waiting for him.

Just as he would wait and respect.

He walked quickly through the light, and it was only a few minutes apart, but it felt like a hundred years had passed.

After an unknown amount of time, another stone gate appeared in the distance.

It looked like that was the end.

Lu Yingjiu quickened her pace, almost jogging over, leaving the light——

Jing Xian had already been waiting there, and hugged him with a smile.

People and ghosts have different ways.

Same way.

Looking at the giant gate again, the two put their hands on the stone gate side by side again.

This time, the Shimen was not so easy to push, they almost tried their best, and Mao Tuanzi also tried to hit the door with his body, which made the Shimen tremble slightly.

One inch, two inches, three inches...

It finally opened slowly.

"Whoohoo-"

A gust of wind gushed out from the crack of the door, blowing their clothes to rattle.Lu Yingjiu squeezed sideways through the crack of the door and saw golden figures flying in the air.

Different from the human figures he killed, these human figures had quiet faces, closed their eyes lightly, and flew with the wind, like a flock of golden birds in the gray sky.

And at the very end...

At the very end is a towering old tree.

I can't tell what species it is, it is lush and lush.The golden human figures stopped in it, sitting on the branches, and looked at the comer with curiosity.

Lu Yingjiu and Jingxian slowly approached.

Every time he took a step, Lu Yingjiu could feel a little more vibration, as if something resonated with the ancient tree in the depths of his soul.

It wasn't until they got under the old tree that they realized that there was a mass of thick black at the root of the tree.The roots of the tree were corroded by it, and a large area was rotten, and black water gushed out of it.

When Lu Yingjiu looked up——

Eyes suddenly opened on the trunk!

Eyes of different sizes are moving at different frequencies and in different directions, exactly 59 of them!

Lu Yingjiu murmured: "It seems that this is the source of the infection... But where did the infection come from?"

Jing Xian raised his head and said, "Water is dripping from above."

Lu Yingjiu:?

He followed Jing Xian's gaze, and sure enough, there was a small... dark cloud at the top of the hall?

Dark clouds floated abruptly in the sky, and small black rain fell, just dripping on the roots of the trees.

Lu Yingjiu said: "Today, the Taoist house is leaking."

Jing Xian: "...Indeed, it's a bit poor."

Lu Yingjiu tentatively threw out a talisman.

The talisman floated into the black cloud by the wind and was engulfed without any reaction.

Lu Yingjiu was worrying about what to do, when she saw Jing Xian's gaze wandering to the side.Then he stretched out his hand suddenly, and grabbed two golden figures that passed by him!

Lu Yingjiu:?

Figure: ? ? !

Jing Xian exerted his strength and threw the two of them directly into the dark clouds like shot puts.

"Push!"

After a slight sound, the human form dissipated, and the black cloud also dissipated.

Lu Yingjiu: "...too violent."

"As long as it's useful." Jing Xian raised his eyebrows, "Look, the clouds just dispersed."

This time, Lu Yingjiu clearly saw what was behind the cloud.

—that's the whole world.

Flying birds and animals, the sun rises and the moon rises, the snow mountain that never melts all year round, the light green on the antlers and the blue fish wandering in the underground cave.Young shoots break ground, young eagles fly, dead trees rot, lone wolves grow old, decay and prosperity coexist, death is also new life;

It was followed by joys, sorrows, sorrows, birth, old age, sickness and death, countless people's faces appeared, babies who had just fallen to the ground, elderly people in their twilight years, dark-skinned men walking on the construction site, and beautiful women who were well-groomed... Some families were happy and some were sad. , firewood, rice, oil, salt, trivial matters, all kinds of trivial things are piled up together to form the various aspects of life;

Further down is the dark world of ghosts, where the scarlet flowers grow wildly, the priests fight the fire and freeze the ice, the ghosts eat each other, and the bones are piled up higher than the mountains.The scenes on the eighteenth floor are different, outlining the insane infinity.In the end, the picture is fixed on a tree with blossoming flowers on the abyss, with white flowers in bloom—that is where Jingxian was born.

And all of these are condensed in the small world in the clouds.

It is from which the black water drips.Greed, madness, selfishness, hypocrisy, arrogance...

The way of heaven is invisible, binding all things, but it also paid a price.

The world itself is a source of pollution.

Lu Yingjiu frowned.

He thought the source of pollution was something specific and could be destroyed, but now it seems that it is impossible to eradicate.Corrosion has been with everything for as long as it exists.

but……

Lu Yingjiu said, "Let's find a way to get rid of this rotten tree."

"What about the source of pollution?" Jing Xian asked, "If left unchecked, the way of heaven will be corroded sooner or later."

"Don't worry about it," Lu Yingjiu shook his head, "Let it go on like this. Negative emotions can't dissipate, but there will always be someone who will stand up."

He continued: "I'm thinking that the corruption of heaven may not be accidental. Just like people will be born, old, sick and die, and plants will flourish and decline. The heaven is polluted and then saved, which is also part of reincarnation."

"But we don't have to worry about the future, because there are always heroes in this world."

Where there are despicable people, there will be heroes. Light and darkness are interdependent, which is the real balance.Years later, when Heaven fell again, this hall will welcome new visitors, and those visitors will be as brave and powerful as they are.

With their bravery and passion, they will overthrow the corruption and sweep away the corruption.

And then……

They also have hope for the future.

Lu Yingjiu said with a smile: "It's like a lamp passed down from generation to generation. We are not the ones who light the fire, nor the ones who extinguish it. We just pass it on in a normal way. But we all know that it will burn forever until The end of time."

"We're not unique heroes, and I take comfort in that."

"...I understand." Jing Xian nodded, "Then let's start."

——It was the beginning, but in fact neither of them knew what to do.

After all, no one has ever done the matter of cleaning up the Heavenly Dao.

Lu Yingjiu said: "According to the formation method, what we found is the 'polluted place' of the Dao of Heaven. Therefore, we should destroy this tree. The Dao of Heaven may be damaged because of this, but it can be restored."

"How?" Jing Xian looked up, "Set fire to it?"

Lu Yingjiu also said in a daze, "It should."

Jing Xian was silent for a while, then said: "Then what if it burns out?"

Lu Yingjiu was still at a loss: "I don't know."

Although the way of heaven is invisible, the law itself should not be hurt, but who knows?As the saying goes, a fire on the mountain will set the police station in the afternoon, and they will set fire to the bottom of the prison.If they accidentally broke something, it would be a big problem.

However, they have no other choice.

"Now we can only believe in the formation," Lu Yingjiu took a deep breath, "Theoretically—I mean, theoretically, we won't have any problems if we set fire to it. If something really goes wrong..."

"Then we will leave a name through the ages." Jing Xian said.

Lu Yingjiu: "That's called Remaining Smell."

"One meaning." Jing Xian said with a smile, "You and I are accomplices, what's the difference? Right and wrong, honor and disgrace are shared by us."

Lu Yingjiu smiled and shook her head: "I've been with you for a long time, I'm almost turning into a villain."

The villains, husband and wife, looked up tacitly and looked at the ancient tree.

A gust of wind blew up, the leaves rustled, those eyes realized that the crisis was approaching, and turned wildly.

It's just that their attendants have long since died, and they have no power to resist.

The two didn't hesitate anymore, one lit a will-o'-the-wisp, and the other drew a talisman.

The rotten place was unexpectedly flammable, and soon, the fire ignited ragingly, greedily licking the roots, branches, and leaves...

The figure perched on the tree flew up in a panic, hovering in the air, but was helpless.

This is a flourishing flame.

The hundred-meter-high trees crackled, eyes were swallowed, green leaves turned into fly ash, and even the dark cloud was outlined with a red edge.

Lu Yingjiu and Jingxian stood side by side, the bright red light fell into the eyes, and the heat wave lifted the sleeves.

The two remained silent, watching the whole world burn.

After an unknown amount of time, the ancient tree turned into fly ash.With a slight wind blow, the ashes disappeared without a trace, leaving only a confused golden figure flying in the air.

Lu Yingjiu whispered, "Let's go."

Jing Xian nodded.

Behind them, a beam of light descended from the sky appeared.

The golden figures are flying around the light beams, as if implying something—that is the passage for them to leave here.

everything is over.

However, the two had just walked a few steps when Lu Yingjiu heard a voice from behind:

【Lu Yingjiu, your time has come】

Lu Yingjiu was taken aback for a moment, then turned around abruptly!

I saw that the place where the old trees grew was empty, and the human figures landed and lined up on both sides of the road, bowing respectfully——

Like in ancient times, the subjects who welcomed the new king to the throne.

Jing Xian couldn't hear the voice and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

In the blink of an eye, Lu Yingjiu understood what they meant:

The way of heaven has been broken.They are expecting that he can become the way of heaven at this moment.

He is part of the way of heaven, of course he can do it...

That would be the closest thing to a god in the world.

The heights that can be reached are unattainable and unimaginable for both humans and ghosts in this lifetime.

Now this opportunity is in front of him, within reach.

The great voice came again:

【Lu Yingjiu, your time has come】
