Zanxing

The vast forest finally came to an end.

Not far away, the smoke from the cooking slowly rose, and there were endless chirping sounds of chickens and ducks. At the end of the large farmland, there are small villages.

This village is not as neat and clean as Si Youguo, it is full of smoke and fireworks. There are piles of chopped firewood in front of the mud houses. The well-fed chickens and ducks are kept in the fence. In front of a small pond in the distance, someone was fishing. Farmers are plowing, little shepherds, watching from a distance, like a paradise, a quiet time.

Hairpin Xing and Gu Baiying looked at each other, each feeling the doubts in each other's hearts.

There are no traces of demonic energy and Yuan force fluctuations here, and it looks like a village where ordinary mortals live. Why did the Buddha Wheel of Two Lives bring them here? Is this a corner of the capital's past?

Gu Baiying turned her head sideways and said in a low voice, Go and have a look.

Hairpin star nodded.

The two walked forward, just in front of a peasant wearing a hat, and Xing Xing stepped forward and said with a smile: This eldest brother.

The farmer, however, seemed to have not seen her, and walked past Hairpin Xing, who was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Gu Baiying's eyes moved slightly. He stretched out the bone-embroidered spear, and the tip of the spear-embroidered spear swept past the poles carried by the farmers, like a breeze, easily penetrating through it.

Illusion? Hairpin star paused. Others can't see them, and they can't influence others, just like an illusion. No, in the illusion of Wufan City, the master of the illusion can live and laugh in it, it looks more like a memory. It was like the memory she saw in the Wuyou Sword in the treasure trove.

whose memory is this? Are you crazy?

We don't seem to be able to influence them. Hairpin Xing looked at Gu Baiying: Master Mingjing said that turning the Buddha Wheel of Two Lives can go back to the past, but if the past has not changed, isn't the meaning of the Buddha Wheel's existence gone?

Don't forget, the person who turns the wheel is a ghost who hates life. Gu Baiying reminded her: You and I can't change the past, it doesn't mean that ghosts hate life.

Hairpin star lowered his eyes, this is true. Guiyansheng was the first person to pass the five-wheeled pagoda test, and the Buddha Wheel was a prize given to him by the pagoda. Gui Yansheng took the initiative to turn the Buddha Wheel, but she and Gu Baiying were forced into it by the Buddha Wheel. In this memory, Guiyansheng is the master.

They can't do anything about the ghostly past.

The two stood on the small road in the village and were thinking about what to do next when a sudden thunderstorm disrupted their thoughts.

I don't know when, thick dark clouds gathered in the sky above the village, the wind was chaotic, and a torrential rain was about to fall. The village neighbors scattered to take shelter from the rain, and the cattle herding children hurriedly drove the cattle home.

The pea-sized rain fell from the sky.

This torrential rain was strange. It was clearly a memory. The villagers could not see the hairpin Xing and Gu Baiying, but the rain could fall on them and wet their clothes. Hairpin Xing looked into the distance, and saw a fluorescent lamp lit in front of the window of someone's house not far away, so he pointed at the other end and said to Gu Baiying, It's not the way to stand like this, let's hide from the rain first.

Gu Baiying had no objection. The two went over and hid under the eaves of the mud house. The clear rainwater smashed down the eaves into the mud pits under their feet, and clusters of water curtains, like hanging water curtains, rushed towards people along the wind.

The hairpin star couldn't help fighting a cold war.

Gu Baiying glanced at her: Why don't you use the warmth technique?

Hairpin Xing said calmly: I won't. When she was on Gufeng Mountain, she always wore a few more pieces to protect against the cold. In many cases, she prefers to use mortals to keep out the cold to remember who she is and where she came from.

Gu Baiying was surprised at first, then disliked it and said, Aren't you the daughter of the Demon King? You don't even know how to warm up. After speaking, she raised a hand and was about to move, when she suddenly heard Hairpin Xing say, That's not right.

His movements froze in midair: What?

Don't you feel it? Hairpin stared at him in surprise: What a strong devilish energy.

Demon qi? Gu Baiying frowned and shook his head: I didn't feel any magic qi nearby.

Even Gu Baiying didn't notice it? Hairpin Xing was even more surprised, she thought for a while, stretched out her left hand, palm up, and a cyan flame instantly ignited from the palm of her hand. The flame quickly swayed and elongated, like a long blue worm, swaying into the house precariously.

Right in this house? Hairpin Xing moved in his heart and followed the room. The next moment, a suppressed voice came from it: It hurts-

With a crashing sound, the rain poured down from the sky, and the thunder and lightning illuminated the faces of the people in the house who were screaming in pain. It was a woman.

A woman in labor.

The flames in the oil lamps on the table seemed to sense the wind and rain outside the window, swaying as if they were about to go out the next moment. The woman clenched her fists hard and tried to calm her breath. The mattress next to the pillow was almost torn by her hands, and there were silver scissors and a water basin beside the bed.

This woman is the only one in the house, not even a stable wife. This woman actually gave birth here alone, and she seemed to be very afraid of letting outsiders know about it. She tried her best to suppress her groans. The movement was firmly covered by the wind and rain outside the window, and the whole village was unknown.

The strong demonic energy came from the woman's belly.

The hairpin star was startled, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind. Before waiting for her to respond, Gu Baiying saw that she was late and walked in. As soon as she entered the room, she was shocked by the scene in the room and said, Why is she alone?

When mortal women give birth, most of them die. Not to mention that parents and relatives are waiting outside, at least they have to be looked after by the mother. And this woman was alone, which was pitiful. What about her husband and relatives?

The woman was still working hard, the veins bursting out on her forehead, her eyes were wide open, tears mixed with sweat, and the bed was soaked.

Suddenly, with the sound of Wow—, the baby's cry rang out in the room. The woman's body suddenly loosened, as if a thousand jins of burden had been unloaded, and she was unable to bear it.

Boom--

The thunder outside the window continued, and the woman on the couch was extremely weak, but she still propped herself up and forced herself to sit up. Every time she moved, she stopped to take a long breath. After an unknown amount of time, she seemed to have regained some strength. The woman gritted her teeth and picked up the born baby from the scarlet and sticky patch. At first glance, she was stunned.

Then, a bitter smile appeared on her face, but a mournful cry overflowed from her throat. This howling sound is also suppressed, like the small whimper of a kitten, hiding the helplessness and pity that I dare not speak to outsiders.

This baby who fell to the ground was different from other babies. He was born with open eyes. He looked at the woman who was holding him in front of him with an innocent smile.

He had a pair of golden pupils.
