To Qing

A bronze mirror floats up and down in the shadow of a hundred thousand deep mountains in the southwest, and purple miasma emerges from the plague mirror.All around are dead wood and animal carcasses.

After a long time, the plague mirror actually made a "creaking" sound, as if whispering something.

One hundred thousand deep mountains, not a single blade of grass grows.

When Chi Li knew about the existence of the Southwest Devil's Nest, nearly ten days had passed since Zhi Qing left.

Li Zhu also heard the news, and her heart was full of anxiety, she asked: "The Venerable's condition doesn't seem to be good..." Seeing Chi Li's indifferent face, she couldn't finish the rest of the sentence.

She didn't know what Zhiqing and Chili said that day, but when Zhiqing left, all the blood on her face was gone, and her lips were also pale.He only left a sentence to Li Zhu, "We will meet later", and then he never heard from him again.

Now that the Devil's Cave is alive, Zhiqing seems to have disappeared.

Why didn't Zhiqing come to look for Chili?Li Zhu didn't dare to ask this question, so she could only worry about it by herself.

For another three days, when she heard that the miasma continued to spread, Lizhu finally lost her composure, and she asked, "My lord, this time the devil's cave is here, won't you go?"

Chi Li didn't answer.

"Your Majesty is going alone, it may be dangerous, this..." Li Zhu hesitated for a while, but still said this.

Chi Li's expression moved slightly, and Li Zhu knew that Chi Li's heart was not completely clear.

It's just that demons are easy to arise but hard to destroy.

Li Zhu lowered her eyes and said softly: "Even if it's not for the sake of the venerable, please ask the king to think about the people of the Yaozu."

Chi Li didn't respond, but when Li Zhu raised his head again, Chi Li had disappeared.

At this time, beside Tianxia Lake, a man in white stood.

Zhiqing stood at the foot of Tianxia Mountain, which had been covered with snow for thousands of years, beside Tianxia Lake.

One side suppressed the demonic spirit, Zhi Qing only felt the devilish energy in his heart, and his breathing was a bit tingling.

The clear qi that entered the lungs wiped out the evil qi hidden in the viscera, just like swallowing up little by little the little affection left.

Zhiqing laughed lightly, as if he was a white-clothed guest in the mountains at the beginning, his eyes were full of flair.This smile washed away the melancholy of the past few days, he seemed to have forgotten the joyous moment by the lake.

He stood by the lake, shook his head and chuckled, and jumped into the lake in the next moment.

The fresh air in the lake water is far more abundant than that of the lakeside. As soon as it enters the water, the cold lake water suddenly turns into thousands of ice needles, piercing the flesh and bones.The fresh air in the water permeates from the skin into the blood vessels, and goes towards the heart little by little.

A bright red throbbing heart was eroded by the cold air, even Zhiqing couldn't help but tremble all over.

The beat of the heart that was beating like a drum began to slow down, and the heart-eating demon that was dormant in his heart seemed to be frightened by the ice, and no longer dared to move around, only dormant in the position of his heart, not daring to move rashly.

Zhiqing's vision began to blur.Although the Heart Eating Demon is well-behaved at this time, the pain in his heart is getting deeper and deeper.

But Zhiqing seemed to be unable to feel the pain, and dived into the depths of Tianxia Lake little by little.

The depths of Tianxia Lake are not dark.A piece of unnamed spar at the bottom of the lake reveals a little bit of fluorescence, suddenly illuminating the vastness.

Zhiqing saw the knife sealed in the center of the lake at a glance.

The knife was half-moon shaped, and bursts of blood radiated from the blade, and there was always a bit of evil that couldn't be ignored in this cold and firefly blue place.

This knife is called Burning Skull, and the legend about him emerges in Zhiqing's mind.

If it is possible, Zhiqing actually does not want to look for this demon-slaying knife, but now that Plague Mirror is born, and Zhiqing is carrying a heart-eating demon, Zhiqing really does not know how to resolve this dangerous situation if this knife is not invited .

When he swam to the side of the Burning Skull Knife, his heart was pierced like a sharp knife, the pain was so painful that his eyes were blurred, and he couldn't hold the Burning Skull Knife several times.

In a daze, Zhi Qing seemed to see Chi Li standing not far from him.He reached out to himself, telling him not to pull out the Burning Skull Knife.

Zhiqing was a little unclear why this fantasy always appeared in front of his eyes at such times.

Even though it was just a fantasy, Zhi Qing's hand stopped when Chi Li told him not to draw his sword.His eyes fell over the handle of the knife and fell on "Chi Li". He had never seen such an anxious Chi Li.

In an instant, thousands of thoughts flashed by, and thousands of people flashed before their eyes, and finally settled in Yuyu Town.

When Zhiqing was leaving, he was on the green hills far away from Yuyu Town.From there, he could see Yuli Island and Yuyu Town.

At night, Yuyu Town is brightly lit.The lights lit up in the street seemed to be a star river, lighting up a gloom.That is a corner of the common people, that is a corner of the world he guards.

Zhi Qing lowered his eyes and did not look at Chi Li.He stretched out his hand to the Burning Skull Knife, this time without any hesitation.Just as he was holding the cold knife handle, Chi Li's phantom disappeared immediately, and at the same time an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged up, giving Zhiqing the illusion that it was not the first time he was holding the knife.

Zhiqing bit his lip, stopped thinking about it, and pulled out the Burning Skull Knife with force.

At the moment when he drew the knife, Zhiqing only felt a suffocation in his heart, and then he seemed to hear the howling of mountains and rivers, and the collapse of the stars and the moon.His mind was shaken, his eyes were blurred, and he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.

The blood looked dark at the bottom of the lake, and it drifted into the lake.

Zhiqing held the Burning Skull Knife tightly in his hand, and tried his best to swim to the shore, ignoring the pain in his heart, he vomited another mouthful of blood halfway.

When he reached the shore, Zhiqing came out of the water and crawled like crawling to the shore. His body was covered in mud, his long hair was loose, and he was in a mess.

Zhiqing was lying on the bank, holding the knife tightly in his hand, but what he saw was the blue sky.He let out a low laugh, stood up, smoothed his long hair back to his head, disregarding his muddy body, the cold lake water below him, and the trembling pain in his heart, he laughed and stood up, the blood stains left by his lips .

"It's me, stupid."

Zhiqing gripped the Burning Skull Knife tightly, turned and left.

Every time he took a step, the moisture on his body disappeared.

Every time he took a step, the pain in his heart faded away.

Zhiqing shook his head, he was really a fool in this heartbreak.

How could the safety of the common people in the world be played like a joke by him.

Zhiqing turned around, and he left the absurd night beside Tianxia Lake.

He walked towards the thousand-thousand mountains, and set foot on the path he should take.
