It was just dawn, and Zhu Xuan finally pulled out his deeply trapped consciousness from the chaos. As the consciousness returned, the limbs gradually regained weak strength.

He slowly moved his eyelashes twice, and after three or four times, he caught a little light like a firefly entering his eyes.

He had a splitting headache, his limbs were as stiff as cast iron, and his eyes were dim.Zhu Xuan held his forehead with one hand for some unknown date, and opened his mouth to talk nonsense, "I'm dead? I'm dead again?"

"..." Yu Sheng choked, and let go of the hand on Zhu Xuan's shoulder at a loss, "If you have nothing to say, brother, you don't have to say anything."

Zhu Xuan raised his head suddenly, and saw Yu Sheng sitting by the bed, a small lamp was lit on the corner of the table behind him, and the light flickered a few times, drawing a smudged gold edge on the side of the man's face.

"Yu Sheng?"

Zhu Xuan still hadn't turned the corner, and stared at Yu Sheng's face with a very blank expression, one hand still half-covering his face and not letting go.

Yu Sheng sighed helplessly, gently took Zhu Xuan into his arms, rubbed his shoulders, and attached his ears:

"We are at the home of Lord Fucheng. Last night you were backlashed by the power of the curse seal. I came here after I brought you back."

Zhu Xuan suddenly realized, and nodded again and again, "The power of the curse seal has remained in my body for so many years. I am lucky that I did not die because of it. It is only natural that I cannot control it."

Zhu Xuan suddenly panicked, and Yu Sheng was looking at him without saying a word, his eyes were all on him.He even felt that for a moment, he seemed to be able to see through the pair of peach blossom eyes that are always calm, and see his heart at a glance, and what is hidden in that deep heart like the sea is himself.

Zhu Xuanmoran, a fact that he couldn't get rid of was once again brought to the surface by him - he couldn't hold it for long.

If he is still a genuine mortal body, if he still has the inner breath surging in the meridians, as well as hot blood and beating heart, then there is no need to compare this to the power of the ghosts of the back land. Putting the power of the curse seal in my eyes, it can be suppressed with medicine like a hundred years ago.

But not now.

He became more and more like an empty shell containing an invisible and terrifying force. The force collided and flew in his body, and sooner or later his own container would be smashed to pieces.Although there is no sense of conflict in his body after his cultivation is exhausted, once he draws out this sealed power, one day he will face backlash and an uncontrollable ending.

Zhu Xuan felt sore in his heart, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly. He raised his hand and hugged Yu Sheng's shoulder and leaned up, then continued his own words and said, "The sudden collision with so many resentments last night was indeed beyond my expectation. This meeting I still feel sleepy, let me rest for a while..."

Yu Sheng tightened his arms and changed into a sitting position that was comfortable for both of them.Lying in Yu Sheng's arms, Zhu Xuan picked up a handful of Yu Sheng's hair with one hand in boredom, and said with a smile:

"I remembered that child Wen Ping had to straighten his hair three times a day from the beginning to the end. Later, he was always bullied by Zhu Yu, so he didn't care. Sometimes it was messed up like a chicken coop."

Yu Sheng raised the corners of his mouth, lowered his eyes and smiled softly, and brushed away the hair that was blocking Zhu Xuan's eyebrows with one hand.Following his movements, Zhu Xuan looked all the way down and landed on his clothes.

"..." Zhu Xuan frowned, "I remember I was wearing black clothes when I came here..."

Yu Sheng's smile was robbed halfway, the corners of his mouth froze, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the dark blue cloth on Zhu Xuan's chest, and he stuttered after a while:

"The original one was full of blood..." After saying that, his face began to feel hot.

Zhu Xuan was obviously taken aback, and nodded slightly worried, "I see, I scared you, I didn't expect this to happen, I'm sorry, Junior Brother."

Yu Sheng looked dull, nodded, and couldn't control his tongue, "Yeah, I look a little scared..."

Zhu Xuan: "..."

He had no choice but to firmly grasp the cloth on Yu Sheng's chest with one hand, propped himself up and kissed him between the eyebrows, "Are you still afraid?"

Yu Sheng blushed, and nodded in a daze, "I'm afraid..."

Zhu Xuan shook his head, sat up and faced Yu Sheng, and kissed the corner of his mouth, "Are you still afraid?"

Yu Sheng came back to his senses, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily, "I'm afraid."

Zhu Xuan: "..."

This also pushed the nose on the face...

Zhu Xuan gently pushed Yu Sheng away, and laughed helplessly, "Stop making trouble, let's go." Yu Sheng took Zhu Xuan's hand that was pressing on his heart, and quickly leaned in front of Zhu Xuan and kissed him lightly. , and then retreated:

"Go and thank the city master Fu, and then leave the city first, so as not to implicate others."

They left Fu Baisheng's house before the sun came out, and went to the graveyard of last night.Under the transparent and soft light of the morning, everything looks almost solemn, and there is no homework that is so fierce and weird.

The graves of all the people in this place are surrounded by a circle, and in the center is the place where the dragon chant pierced last night, and there are still marks of the sealing formation on the ground.

Several beams of light burst through the clouds, swept across Zhu Xuan's eyelashes, and fell into the bottom of his eyes. When they landed on this land, they looked like countless souls heading towards the sun.

"Life is endless, life is endless..." Zhu Xuan muttered, understanding the reason why he and everyone in Wuwang City struggled with all their strength and refused to leave.

Some people always say that people only live in this life, and passing away is like rivers and rivers flowing east and west.The lingering soul remains in the world, and what is lingering is not the time in this world, but the memory of this life.

"Yu Sheng." Zhu Xuan called out, "The last time we left Tianmen together, I thought that I could go back with Master and the others as soon as the matter was over, and I would stay on the mountain wholeheartedly from now on..."

He took a deep breath, "Stay on the mountain, there is no death, no loss and separation."

Yu Sheng frowned, but still replied: "I remember, brother, it's best not to break your promise."

-

On the day when Zhu Xuan and Yu Sheng left without saying goodbye, Zhu Qing stood at the entrance of the corridor as if she had expected it, took a long look at the Yuanshan Pavilion from a distance, turned and left.

He went to Elder He and said goodbye to his master Luo Er. After Luo Er's soul flickered, he left Tianmen and searched for the place mentioned in the letter from the south of Jing Tu, and Jing Jing. Meet Tunan.

Jing Tunan was injured, and he fell into a valley for some reason, without knowing the whereabouts of Liu Qingyuan and Mei Sanqian.

When Zhuqing arrived, he endured the groaning and healed his injury, then decided to look for Zhu Xuan and Yu Sheng first.

Zhuqing hadn't left Tianmen for a long time, because he was weak when he was young, he couldn't even lift a sword, since then Luo Er asked him to abandon the sword and cultivate one, and concentrate on staring at the grass and trees in a daze.At this time, Jing Tunan took him to step on the long sword, which really made him uncomfortable, and he stopped talking nervously.

Jing Tunan roughly stated the ins and outs of the matter, and he said:

"I told Zhu Xuan not to leave. In fact, I only thought of this method in a hurry. But Zhu Xuan should understand that no matter where he is... I think he should have guessed it, and I'm afraid he told you the name of that person: Liu Nanxu."

Zhu Qing's heart tightened, and he nodded worriedly, "Yes, he also said, maybe this little uncle who disappeared without a trace is not dead, and the events of the year are also very closely related to this person."

Jing Tu turned his head to the south, hesitated for a moment and then said:

"Zhu Xuan is right... I left shortly after the master left, and later I met the master when I rescued a few mortals on the way. At first, the master seemed to be chasing someone, and I couldn't catch up even if I dodged. , When I caught up later, the master seemed to be injured in the fight with that person, and he left those few words after he rescued me. It’s just that I didn’t explain clearly, so I lost consciousness.”

"Who is that person? How could he hurt Master?"

Jing Tunan shook his head, "It's not that that person can hurt Master, but that Master doesn't want to do it himself, he has been asking a few questions... Master asked that person, 'Did Luo Er die by your hands? Continuing to the lives of thousands of mortals, have you used it as a medium for the sacrificial array, and... Zhu Xuan's murder, is it related to you'. I didn't know who that person was at first, and his face was hidden in the shadows. People also seem to walk through the chaos, coming and going without a trace, until the master asked, I suddenly understood."

"It's Liu Nanxu." The two said in unison.

"What does that have to do with Zhu Xuan?" Zhu Qing asked in confusion.

Jing Tunan never loosened his brows. When Zhu Qing asked Zhu Xuan, he was already feeling exhausted physically and mentally. He was worried about Liu Qingyuan on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was also worried about what happened to Zhu Xuan and Yu Sheng.He raised his hand and rubbed his temples, regained his energy and replied:

"When Zhu Xuan was killed in Kunwu Mountain a hundred years ago, Yu Sheng told me that it was Jiang Xian from Qianqiu Temple who did it. The reason why Jiang Xian did this was because he knew that his master brought Zhu Xuan back that day. This person has the same birth date as Teng Xu. That time we went to Kunwu Mountain together, and there was Teng Xu's corpse in Kunwu Mountain, but the resentment of Teng Xu's corpse was extremely heavy and difficult to control, so Jiang Xian wanted to borrow two similar souls to come. To control Teng Xu's body.

It's just that he miscalculated, he didn't know that the master's soul remained in it.Jiang Xian is Teng Xu's younger brother, if he really wanted to use this method to seize Teng Xu's power to command all ghosts, then these years would not stop like this. "

Zhuqing suddenly burned with anger, gritted his teeth and said:

"But Zhu Xuan was harmed by him just like that. He stayed in that ghostly place for a hundred years, but he had the nerve to live on without saying a word. It was the same with Master, and he is the only one who has lived peacefully until now... ..."

Jing Tunan patted Zhuqing's shoulder, wiped away the tears from the corners of Zhuqing's eyes calmly, and sighed:

"The important thing right now is that if the master is safe and sound, then Zhu Xuan will be fine. If Liu Nanxu is safe... Liu Nanxu probably wants Zhu Xuan's soul so that he can reunite with Teng Xu's soul. Well, when I was in southern Xinjiang, I heard about this kind of formation. It is the same as when the Kunwu Great Chaos was born in the Northern Wilderness. The souls of tens of thousands of people are used as guides, and the soul of Zhu Xuan must be exchanged."

The ghost array exchanged souls, exchanging two similar souls, and sacrificed the souls of thousands of people.The soul bound by the soul exchange array will never be able to reincarnate. Before the exchange soul is found, it will be imprisoned in the endless abyss under the Houtu forever.
