Shen Nanyi chased He Dingyan's figure to a dark alley.

There are bungalows on both sides, the street lights are dim, the alley is extremely long and narrow, and there is darkness at the end.

She noticed something was wrong as soon as she stepped in. The alley was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

There are boundaries. Shen Nanyi frowned slightly, looked straight ahead and smiled lightly:

"The old man is in good health and runs very fast."

He Dingyan just stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at her without saying a word, his eyes expressionless.

The dark night shrouded his thin and slender figure. The straight tunic suit was a little loose, as if it was placed on a withered body.

The enemy cannot move, I cannot move, and the atmosphere is inexplicably strange.

Shen Nanyi watched his every move quietly, and for just a moment, she noticed that the other person's eyes turned blue.

The next moment, the wind from He Dingyan's palm roared towards him. She countered it with her sword and gave him a roundhouse kick.

He Dingyan's sternum crackled, as if broken.

"Old man, you have osteoporosis and you need calcium supplements."

Shen Nanyi narrowed his eyes. The opponent had some force value, but not much.

No matter how much she ridiculed him, the other person was as mute as ever and remained silent.

From this point of view, he does not look like the resurrected fake Lord of the Underworld, Aji.

Her heart dropped a little.

Unlike Wang Hao, she was not familiar with the ancestors of the He family and had no psychological pressure.

It didn't take much effort to clean up He Dingyan.

When the sword was sheathed, the trace of black energy clinging to He Dingyan's body also disappeared.

Shen Nanyi's guess was correct. This was indeed a puppet resurrected by the trace of Yang energy remaining in his body.

To be on the safe side, she turned into flames in her palms, turning He Dingyan's body into ashes.

When the last wisp of green smoke disappeared into the night, she took out a clean handkerchief and gathered the ashes on the ground together.

After all, he is the ancestor of the He family, and his ashes still have to be sent back.

After the last wisp of ashes was put into the veil, the wind began to rise in the alley.

Shen Nanyi had goosebumps all over her body for no reason.

cold.

Extremely cold.

A chill shot up to the top of her head, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her teeth began to chatter.

She relied on her intuition to dodge sideways, and the ice shot from behind her was like an arrow nailed to the wall.

Water condensation technique! so close!

Someone can actually condense water vapor in the air into ice!

This is an ancient secret technique.

"Who is it? Come out!"

Before she finished speaking, ice arrows fell like rain. She could only show off the sword in her hand and resist with difficulty.

Shen Nanyi made a finger gesture, and with a bang, a flame barrier was erected in front of him.

Before the ice arrow could touch her, it was melted by the flames into a puddle of water.

"Follow me." A dark figure flashed behind her, dragging her and disappearing into the night.

The familiar voice made her raise her head, her dark eyes glazed over: "It's you."

"It's me." The shadow lowered his eyes. The eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were elegant and gentle.

It is He Ji, to be precise, it is a ray of his soul.

Shen Nanyi couldn't help but grasp the corner of his clothes, with vigilance hidden in her eyes:

"Are you Ah Ji or He Ji?"

He Ji chuckled, shook his head and looked at Shen Nanyi: "Why don't you come and identify it yourself."

Shen Nanyi was stunned for a moment, and her feet flew forward involuntarily with him.

The two hid in the basement of a building.

"There seems to be a barrier here. It's safe to hide inside. He can't find us."

Ana Shen stretched out his hand suspiciously, it was indeed an invisible barrier.

"How do you know?"

He Ji was just a doctor during his lifetime, how could he know this?

"You ask me, it's hard for me to answer." He Ji shrugged and spread his hands: "I don't understand either."

It turns out that when the Lord of the Underworld seized his body, for some reason, a trace of his soul remained; as his body died, his remnant soul wandered around the world with no one to guide him.

"After I left the warehouse dock, I wandered alone on the street, not knowing where to go. Until one day, a man in black robe wanted to arrest me, so I fled here in a hurry, and accidentally discovered this safety barrier. No one can see or get in."

"So you've been hiding here all this time?"

Shen Nanyi somewhat understood why Alu could not find him despite summoning his soul many times.

"Yes. I met you by chance today. Just when I was about to call you, I saw you getting into a fight with someone."

She watched Shen Nanyi walk into a barrier, and no matter how much he shouted, she couldn't hear him.

He could only hide aside and wait for an opportunity to help her secretly.

He Ji shook his head and laughed at himself: "Shen Nanyi, will you laugh at me?"

In the past, at least he was a decent doctor; now he is just a broken soul on the road to hell, and he really has no face to see her.

It can be seen that when he saw that she was in danger, he rushed out regardless of it.

"How could it be? I've been looking for you." Shen Nanyi's eyes turned red.

He Ji's eyes were stunned and he couldn't believe it: "Really?"

"You don't know how happy I am when I know that a trace of your soul is still lingering in the world."

Shen Nanyi lowered her head, took his hand, and placed it in her own palm:

"I'm sorry, I came too late and failed to protect you."

She had been regretting in her heart that if she had arrived earlier that night, perhaps the Underworld Lord would not have the chance to seize the body.

The palm of her hand was very warm, and in this dark night, it was like a ray of light falling on He Ji's heart, and her blind eyes regained their sight.

"Shen Nanyi, you are such a friend."

Shen Nanyi felt very uncomfortable: "We have always been friends, He Ji."

He Ji gently recounted what happened after his body was taken away, his tone indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.

"He gave birth to me, and returning this life to him is the end of the father-son relationship between me and him. From now on, I will never owe him anything."

"But you are the most innocent." Shen Nanyi felt distressed.

"He brought trouble to Yin and Yang, and I, as his son, suffered the consequences. I am not innocent. However, God is not kind to me. He knows that I have a little obsession. If I can see you again, I will die without regrets." He Ji looked calm. .

Even though he didn't get Shen Nanyi's love in this life, it was enough to know that there was a corner of her heart for him.

Ana Shen could not suppress the tears in her eyes:

"Your soul aura is already very weak. Fortunately, I met you in time. Let me give you a ride, He Ji."

He Ji reached out and touched her cheek gently, feeling sad: "I know, you are the ferryman."

In this life, he has too many regrets and reluctance, but there is no chance. There are some things he must tell her.

"You have to pay attention to the man in black robe, he is more powerful than my father."

"Who is he and why does he want to arrest you?"

Shen Nanyi was puzzled as a remnant soul had no value, so why should he be hunted down?

"I don't know who he is. My father met him several times during the symbiosis of souls. I can feel that he is full of fear of this mysterious black-robed man. They have been looking for a kind of wood for more than a thousand years, but There was no progress. The man in black robe thought that my father deliberately concealed the whereabouts of the wood, and the two of them fought over it. "

wood? Monk Shen Nanyi Zhang Er was confused, what kind of wood?

He Ji shook his head slightly, with a confused look on his face:

"At first I was also very confused as to why they wanted to arrest me. Now that I think about it, maybe they were afraid that I would reveal their secrets."

Shen Nanyi: "He can divert water and turn it into arrows. He has great magical power."

This person didn't even show a shadow, but he already had such attack power. No wonder even He Ji was afraid of him.

Who could it be in the Three Realms? What is the purpose?

It was probably the man in black robe who set up a trap tonight to use He Dingyan to lure her to the alley.

Just relying on a trace of yang energy left in the body can drive He Dingyan to come out as a puppet to harm others, which shows that the person behind it has a big plan.

"Shen Nanyi, you have to be careful. Since he wants to get rid of you, if he doesn't do it once, there will be a next time."

"Don't worry, He Ji, I will definitely take care of myself."

Shen Nanyi held his hand again and was filled with emotions:

"In the next life, you will be completely yourself, and you will no longer have to bear his sins. You will definitely live a good life, be happy, healthy, and enjoy peace of mind."

He Ji's eyebrows smiled softly: "Do you still remember the last question you asked me?"

Shen Nanyi suddenly remembered that the last conversation they had before He Ji's death was in the reception garden.

When he left, he read a piece of Zhang Ailing's prose to himself.

"In the wilderness of endless time, there is no step early or one step late. This is my wish in the next life. I want to be the right person. Meet you at the right place at the right time and be with you. I like You, Shen Nanyi.”

He Ji smiled deeply, his eyebrows relaxed and happy: "I'm very happy. I can go to the next place first and wait for you."

Ana Shen couldn't help but shed tears: "Okay, if we meet again, we will definitely recognize each other."

"That's great, you answered me."

He was like a child who had received the greatest praise, his face full of satisfaction.

Shen Nanyi lowered his head and sobbed.

He Ji took Meng Po's soup and drank it all in one gulp.

"See you in the next life! Xiaoyi, be well!"

He waved and turned around gracefully, as brilliant and flamboyant as when they first met.

"Don't look back, He Ji."

Ana Shen silently looked at his leaving figure and prayed for him.

Crossing the River Styx with half a cup of turbid wine, drinking all this life and forgetting myself.

The future of the three lives is like a dream, and there will be no regrets in the next life.

Have a good journey, why is it so quiet?
