Once upon a time there was a demon pass

"Captain, what's wrong with you?"

The rescue team loaded up with supplies again and assembled at the gate of Mexico City, ready to set sail.

The eyes of each of them were filled with bloodshot eyes, and it was obvious that they had not had a good rest for a long time.

far away...

Several reserve soldiers came from the wilderness with a small box in their arms.

There was also a black and white photo hanging on the box.

In the photo, a middle-aged man with a roguish smile on the corner of his mouth, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, stood on the city gate, looking into the distance.

Profile shot.

Perhaps, it is also the only photo he left behind.

Sun Wen was stunned in place, his brain sank into a void for a while, his eyes fixed on the photo on the box, and his fists were clenched subconsciously.

At this moment, he didn't even know what he was thinking, and let those reserve soldiers walk past him with heavy steps, and finally disappeared into the distance.

For a moment, countless memories flashed through Sun Wen's mind in the form of photos one by one.

Tears flowed from the corner of his eyes unconsciously.

His body was a little limp, and he leaned against the car, as if his own world was missing a piece.

"Captain, captain?"

"What's the matter with you, Captain?"

A member of the rescue team noticed Sun Wen's strangeness, and came over worriedly, gathered around him, and asked.

Sun Wen gradually came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes: "It's okay, maybe it's a lack of sugar, let's go."

"Why don't you take a break this trip, I'll lead the team."

A middle-aged man frowned slightly looking at Sun Wen's state at this time, and said.

Sun Wen shook his head and forced a smile: "It's okay, time is tight, let's go first."

After speaking, Sun Wen opened the car door and got in.

He held the steering wheel with both hands, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.

'Boy, in this world, the only one who can defeat you is yourself. '

Suddenly, a figure seemed to appear in Sun Wen's mind again, just like that, smoking a cigarette, not like a father should be at all, talking to himself with a smile, and kicking his ass by the way.

"The only thing that can break me is myself..."

Sun Wen's hand holding the steering wheel gradually tightened, and his eyes became determined again.

The vehicle starts.

This vehicle was responsible for the rescue, and the vehicle for transporting supplies started up again, and along with the dust and smoke, drove towards Zhenyao Pass.

……

"Aren't you bored?"

"It's been two days, and you haven't said a word..."

"It's not that no one is chatting with you. If you ask, maybe I'll chat with you for a while?"

"There are still five days until the Wandu Fruit matures!"

"Let's talk for a while..."

"You're not going to die, are you?"

The swamp pond, in the cave on the island in the middle of the lake.

For two whole days, Yu Sheng sat in place, clutching the demon crystal in his hand, motionless.

Only when eating, Yu Sheng opened his eyes briefly, took out two steamed buns from his pocket, and chewed them lightly.

"Aren't you tired of eating steamed buns all the time?"

"By the way, how big is your space for storing items..."

"Why can't even hold the steamed buns, so I have to bring them myself."

"Come back to me anyway!!"

Seeing Yu Sheng take out two steamed buns, its voice sounded immediately, as if it was standing beside Yu Sheng, its words were full of curiosity.

"Brother, I have a lot of secrets here, don't you want to dig it out?"

"Really, I am a living fossil in the Demon Realm!"

"It didn't take long for my spiritual energy to recover, and I opened my spiritual wisdom. In terms of using poison, there is no one in the entire demon realm who is better than me!"

"I have witnessed the history of the development of the demon domain, and I can even vaguely guess the existence of several demon gods..."

"Really, my information here is always deceiving. If you deceive me, I will tell you everything."

"Decades...I haven't talked to anyone for decades, I'm lonely..."

"Just chat with me for a while."

It was like a fly, buzzing around Yu Sheng's ears non-stop. At this time, Yu Sanshui was also facing the same situation. I don't know if it was a coincidence.

It's just that Yu Sheng was more decisive in this situation.

A round ball appeared in his hand, knocked lightly, and threw it into the distance.

A roar sounded.

The echoes kept coming back.

For a moment, its noisy sound stopped abruptly, completely covered by the explosion.

Yu Sheng lowered his head in satisfaction, and ate the steamed buns again.

until a few minutes later...

"Actually, I'm not a bad person."

"The human race wants to live, but there are many monsters in the demon realm, and they just want to live."

"But if you don't get stronger, how can you survive?"

"Everything this king has planned these years is just to try to survive."

"Even I don't have any bad thoughts about the human race."

"People don't offend me, I don't offend anyone."

"This is the word of mouth of your people, and it's what I want to say."

"So we don't necessarily have to be enemies."

"Why can't humans and demons be friends?"

Its voice rang out again, only this time with genuine emotion in its tone.

Yu Sheng remained silent.

"Ugh..."

"Time will tell."

Accompanied by a soft sigh, the voice slowly dissipated, and it didn't bother Yu Sheng for a whole day.

……

"morning."

"I have paid attention to your breath simulation, this should be one of your awakening skills."

"But there are still loopholes in it. The aura you simulated is not pure. If you are carefully watched by the demon master, it will reveal your secrets."

"Feel it carefully, the evil spirit itself has a special rhythm, very subtle."

"Also, regarding the absorption of the demon crystal, it doesn't have to be so rough."

"Back then, I heard a patriarch of the Protoss in Tianqiongjian say that combining the demon crystal with the star meteor fruit, melting it into a liquid, applying it all over the body, and then absorbing it will make it more pure."

"Didn't you find some starfall fruits in the cave, you can try it."

Although Yu Sheng always ignored it, it taught Yu Sheng patiently.

The wholehearted kind.

without return.

It was as if everything he said before was true.
