Shu Xingmi and Mojun walked to the short pillar on the right side of the pool, and saw black characters on a gold background engraved on it: "Once upon a time, there was a country that suffered from years of drought, and it was necessary to sacrifice a person whose birth date and horoscope were in line with the Dragon King's appetite. Only when it rains can all the people in the country be saved, there is no other way, if you are the parents of the sacrificial person, you will choose:”

Above the stone button on the left is engraved: "Sacrifice to this man."

On the top of the stone button on the right is engraved: "The whole country starved to death."

Looking at the line of words, the demon king put his hand on the stone button on the right, then moved to the left, then to the right, and finally did not press any of them, and lowered his hand.

"If the person who needs to be sacrificed is me, I will choose to sacrifice myself without hesitation, but if it is my child..."

The Demon King felt his heart empty and painful, as if it had been burnt and scorched. His voice was so soft that a gust of evening wind could blow it away: "I can't make a choice. I'm not that noble, I'm not a saint."

Shu Xingmi held Mojun's hand, of course he knew that a person's life was small compared to the lives of the whole country, but to his parents, it was almost the whole world.

"Leave this first, let's look at the one on the left, and I'll solve this later." Shu Xingmi led the demon king to the left golden pillar, and saw a question engraved on the golden pillar: "In a family, a total of There are five children, the eldest, the second and the third have always lived in harmony, the fourth and the fifth are the youngest, but the most restless, which makes the eldest, the second and the third worry every day, if the fourth and the fifth collude , the eldest, second and third child will most likely be evicted from this home, they will be homeless, if you are the eldest, second or third child:”

On the top of the stone button on the left is engraved: "Expelling the fourth and fifth children."

On the top of the stone button on the right is engraved: "Forbearance under the same roof."

Shu Xingmi understood after reading the question and the two options: "This question should imply the relationship between the six worlds. The boss, the second child, and the third child represent the world of gods, the underworld and the human world. Jurisdiction, while the fourth and fifth children belong to the demon world and the demon world, which are not under the control of heaven. As for the sixth world—the natural world is the house itself, if we choose this question, it must be the right one. When a real person chooses, he must choose the left side.”

The Demon King nodded, and put his hand lightly on the pillar: "But, which stone button do we want to press? This mechanism was arranged by your master. If he needs to bring Qianqian from here to the sacrificial furnace in the heaven, then according to his own We should press the left button, but what if the pass method he set has nothing to do with the questions? Or are these questions a test for us...?"

"Try it, even if we choose wrongly, it won't hurt Qianqian, because the real Yuhua needs him, and it is impossible to set up a mechanism that will hurt Qianqian in this place," Shu Xingmi pressed the left stone button with his hand , looked at the Demon Lord and said: "If you press it correctly, you can find out the routines for these problems. If you press it wrong, we can get out with our strength."

The Demon Lord made up his mind and put his hand on the back of Shu Xingmi's hand. The two of them pressed the stone button together. The stone button made a rough friction sound, and then the water level in the pool dropped slowly, and the water in the Forgotten River decreased by a quarter. one.

"That's right." Shu Xingmi said happily: "Sure enough, your thinking is correct, and the answer on the pillar on the right is also clear."

He ran to the right again, pressed the stone button on the left, and the water level dropped to half again.

The two went to the opposite side of the square pool again, and saw the engraving on the third pillar: "The thing you most desire in your heart is on the other side of the river, but you can't swim. You must take a boat to reach the other side. The boatman said, if you are willing Give me half of your conscience as a reward, and I will send you to the other side, which one will you choose?"

On the top of the stone button on the left is engraved: "Sell your conscience."

Above the stone button on the right is engraved: "Stick to the bottom line."

"Needless to say this question, I must choose to sell my conscience." Shu Xingmi pressed the button expressionlessly, and the water level had dropped by three-quarters.

The two came to the last pillar again: "If you reached the other side of the river and found that what you wanted was wrong all along, what would you choose?"

On the top of the stone button on the left is engraved: "One mistake to the end."

On the top of the stone button on the right is engraved: "Turn back and see the shore."

"This question is a bit difficult," Shu Xingmi raised his hand to his chin: "Even if Master Yuhua has already done something wrong, we can't be sure that he will make the mistake to the end. What if he wakes up?"

"He has already reached this point, can he still wake up?" The devil was a little skeptical, but he still believed in Shu Xingmi's intuition. Learn something.

"If he can see the truth clearly, he will. Believe me, although what he did is disdainful, he is indeed a smart person. He will never allow himself to devote energy to the wrong things," Shu Xingmi paused Take a look: "This is like a person who is color blind. He always sees red as green. Until he understands the fact that he is color blind, he will be wrong. Now he just needs an opportunity to uncover the truth."

"Okay, although I don't trust him, I trust you." The Demon Lord raised his hand and pressed the stone button on the right.

Just as Shu Xingmi expected, the water level dropped again. After a while, there was no more water in the pool, and a large piece of irregularly shaped solid ice emerged. Light gray and eerie blue-purple, magnificent and mysterious, looking from a distance, it looks like a plump lotus on a glacier.

Shu Xingmi and Mo Jun hurriedly jumped into the square pond. Through the thick ice, they saw Qianqian's face. More than 2000 years had passed, but the young man's appearance remained the same. His long blue hair seemed to be in the ice. Condensed fog, lips were frozen purple, eyes closed, black and dense eyelashes covered with fine frost.

A family separated for more than 2000 years was finally reunited.

Without further ado, the two of them worked together to melt the solid ice. This ice is not ordinary ice, but extremely cold black ice. It can last for thousands of years without melting. Melting black ice requires a lot of mana. They lasted for an entire hour to melt the solid ice. Shu Xingmi's magic power was exhausted.

After rescuing Qianqian from the ice, Mojun carried Qianqian on his back, and left the underground palace with Shu Xingmi. They found the creek they came from, climbed back to Jingshui Lake along the entrance of the cave, and then Swimming out of the lake and returning to Liancheng as quickly as possible, the Demon Lord found a remote hill and poured some mana into Qianqian's body to help him wake up.

"After Qianqian wakes up, let's go back to the Demon Palace and have a good meal. This kid hasn't eaten anything good in 2000. I brewed dozens of altars of Qinglu wine in the cellar. He used to like drinking this most. .”

Mojun looked at Shu Xingmi, his eyes were gentle, full of yearning, his eyes were slightly red, showing fatigue and emotion.

"Okay, I haven't had a drink for a long time, and I forgot what it tastes like." Shu Xingmi leaned on the hillside, too tired to move.

"It's sweet and smooth like honey, it's best served warm, and the iced one is also good..." the Demon Lord chatted casually.

The morning light illuminates the sky as usual, a new day, a new life for Shu Xingmi, Mojun and Qianqian - a life of living together as a family again.

Qianqian's eyelids moved slightly, and his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he frowned.

The Demon Lord and Shu Xingmi immediately surrounded Qianqian, Shu Xingmi called out in a low voice: "Qianqian?" The Demon Lord also called out, his eyes full of hope.

Qianqian opened her eyes, they were a pair of extremely indifferent eyes, reflecting the sky covered with brocade morning glow, those black pupils glanced at Demon Lord and Shu Xingmi.

Shu Xingmi's smile froze, as if the layer of ice that froze Qianqian just now had froze on him.

The eyes are wrong.

He has seen Qianqian's portrait in the magic palace, and he has seen his own memory after drinking mirror water. Qianqian's eyes are blue, it cannot be black.

There is no such thing as colored contact lenses in this time and space.

Before Shu Xingmi and Mo Jun had time to react, their eyes went black instantly, as if they were sucked in by those dark eyes.

Their consciousness was in chaos for a few seconds, and then Shu Xingmi realized that his body was falling, he forced his head to look down, but he couldn't see anything.

He and the demon king seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss and continued to fall. The demon king grabbed Shu Xingmi's hand and tried to fly up, but he couldn't use any mana.

The mentality of both of them was a bit broken, and they were rescued with great difficulty. As soon as they opened their eyes, they were teleported to such a ghostly place.

The Demon Lord took a few deep breaths and managed to calm his mind: "He is indeed our son."

Shu Xingmi held the Demon Lord's hand tightly, and he also realized: "Yes, but he is possessed by the God of Despair. Whoever looks at the God of Despair will fall into an illusion. In this illusion, people They will face their biggest heart knot, if they overcome the heart knot, they can be freed from the illusion, if they cannot overcome the heart knot within three days, they will be lost in this illusion forever, and they will never go back.”

Shu Xingmi closed his eyes: "We have been tricked by Master Yuhua, think about it, he wants to use Qianqian's sacrificial furnace, he can directly throw people and ice into the refining furnace, there is no need to melt the ice, only Only those who really want to save Qianqian will help him melt the ice, and will see him open his eyes, as long as he sees his eyes, he will fall into this illusion. I'm sorry, I didn't realize it in advance."

"Don't blame you, we can definitely go out."

Before the Mojun finished speaking, he heard a high-pitched reprimanding voice in his ears: "2000 years ago, you watched Qianqian being kidnapped by the heavenly soldiers and generals, but you failed to save him. You really didn't Use, you're a piece of trash."
