Once upon a time there was a demon pass

If I remember correctly, at that moment, Ji Hong...

At the corner of the eye, there are tears.

For so many years in the Demon Realm, no matter what he endured, he did not have any emotional fluctuations, and even faced the fact that he was demonized calmly, but after getting the understanding of his elders, he could no longer restrain his inner emotions. It seems to have found a vent.

"For countless days and nights, in a trance, I can always see faces, pairs of eyes..."

"They walked so openly..."

"but I..."

"I..."

At that moment, Ji Hong's body curled up like a child without support, his body trembling slightly.

And I can only watch, and even want to say a word of comfort, but I don't know how to express it.

But he felt that his heart was severely grabbed.

Over the years, I don't know how many times I have cursed Ji Hong in my heart, even when I came to Tianqiongjian, I was suspicious of Ji Hong.

"It was my fault..."

"It's us..."

"You have worked hard all these years."

That night, there was also a bright moon hanging in the sky.

He uttered these words with a hoarse voice trembling.

A hard work, full of bitterness.

Ji Hong didn't hold back the emotion in his heart anymore, and turned his back to him for a long time. When he turned around again, he had regained his composure, and began to calmly arrange his own plan.

And his role is to use the ability of his Mirage Dragon Demon Core to replace Ji Hong and sit on the top of this mountain.

As for Ji Hong, he left quietly.

He didn't ask what Ji Hong was going to do, and there was no need to ask.

He knew that his wisdom was not enough, so he only had to do what Ji Hong said, and that was enough.

"If one day, tell the world..."

"The abyss is not an abyss. What is hidden inside is the warm sun, the softest light in the world."

"Will they believe it, or...will they accept it?"

He raised his head and looked at the night sky, slightly lost in thought.

There is no answer to this question.

Or there is, but you can't think about it, even if you just guess a little bit, it will make you feel like falling into an ice cave.

In the end, he could only forcibly abandon those wild thoughts in his heart, let himself regain his composure, and enter the state of cultivation.

……

the other side.

Walking on the remote mountain road, Ji Hong restrained all his aura without leaking a single bit.

In the end, it traveled through the canyon, quietly left Tianqiongjian, and when it reappeared, it was already in the peach blossom pond.

Looking at the dusty tea table, Ji Hong had no expression on his face.

The faint fragrance of peach blossoms still filled the entire Peach Blossom Pool, but Ji Hong was not in the mood to appreciate it. Instead, he kept walking around in the Peach Blossom Pool, standing at a certain position from time to time, pausing for a while, and then getting up again after a while, changing one direction.

After a long time, Ji Hongcai gradually stopped busy, leaning against the huge peach blossom tree, looking at the starry sky in silence, as if caught in some kind of memory.

But soon, he broke away from this state of memory, his eyes became clear, he got up, and left in a hurry.

Peach Blossom Pond regained its calm, and there was no trace of anyone coming.

Even Ji Hong was just walking around in this Peach Blossom Pond, completely confusing and no trace to be found.

……

The old white ape simply repaired the flower garden at the entrance of the palace, and finally sat on the rocking chair with satisfaction, admiring the stars in the night sky. He looked so comfortable and free and easy, and there was even a quiet smile on the corner of his mouth.

but...

At some point, the old white ape frowned slightly, and finally sat up straight from the rocking chair.

"clothing..."

"Ji Hong is wearing...that old clothes."

"Even if he always maintains a state of no joy or sorrow, even if he hates me, he still has the shame of the human race."

"Clothes, he will definitely wear them."

"There's no reason not to wear the new one I gave him."

"It goes against common sense."

The old white ape muttered to himself, lost in thought.

When it just came back, it always felt that something was wrong, but it still couldn't grasp the center of gravity.

Until just now, a flash of inspiration appeared.

"..."

"What's the reason for this..."

"He needs someone...to replace his identity, to cover up the demon god's prying eyes."

"So, the clothes are on another 'Ji Hong'."

"Mirage dragon...human race..."

A piece of information kept flashing through the old white ape's mind.

Most of them are screened out by it, leaving only a small part that is logical, staying in the mind, and finally forming a complete chain in an orderly manner.

"Humans, people who have absorbed the demon core of the mirage dragon, have come to Tianqiongjian, and are beside Ji Hong."

"Ji Hong used this as a cover to hide himself..."

"What is his purpose in hiding himself?"

"What does he want to do?"

The old white ape fell into deep thought again, but this time, even he didn't figure it out, and could only fall back on the rocking chair, looking at the night sky, a little lost in thought, letting time go by, and finally frowned and returned to In the palace of the king, and crushed a few flowers.
