Beauty crowns the world [Rebirth]

Chapter 5 Thousands of Lights at Night (24)

Jiang Qihe had no time to think about why Chen Yihui and Lian Shanhe stood together. He knelt tremblingly beside the Eye of the Underworld, trying again and again, but all in vain.

"It's useless, only the soul can touch the Eye of the Underworld." Chen Yichong and Jiang Qihe couldn't help repeating.

What does it mean for the soul to enter the eyes of the underworld?It means washing away the dust and welcoming the past.Lu Yunshen couldn't let Jiang Qihe take risks, so he took a step forward to help him up, pointing the tip of his sword at Lian Shanhe.

"If only the soul can touch the Eye of the Underworld, then what do you mean by 'destroy the Eye of the Underworld'?" The bright light could not hide the cold light flashing on the blade of the sword, Lu Yun's deep black eyes were covered with frost, The voice is cold.

Lian Shanhe lowered his eyes and smiled, closed the folding fan, and slapped it on the palm of his hand, with a leisurely tone, "Because of the 'Taiqing Soul'. Ordinary souls can only be purified by the Eye of the Underworld, but the Taiqing Soul can destroy the Eye of the Underworld. , After all, what the Taiqing soul carries cannot be consumed by the Eye of the Underworld."

"Mr. Chunfeng was born as one of the ten saints. Why? Because his soul is too pure and his bones are too empty. He was born to be the nemesis of Huangquan and Xuyuan."

When Lian Shanhe said this, light poured from behind him, and he was dressed in a moon-white robe with a plum red background and a night pattern.With a smile on his face, his folding fan fluttered lightly, he was personable, but he beat Jiang Qihe to death lightly.

When the sea of ​​sins in the abyss endangers the human world, it is suppressed with etheric bones.

The breath of chaos pervades the world, the core of the chaotic state merges with the eye of the underworld, and the etheric soul destroys it.

From his words, it can be heard that Jiang Qihe is just a carrier, a tool.

Jiang Qihe was not moved at all by this remark, he looked at Jiang Mian in the eyes of Huang Quan absent-mindedly, and while the chains were shaking, Jiang Mian's soul and body merged with the eyes of chaos a little deeper.

"What should I do?" Jiang Qihe asked in a low voice.

"You should jump down, destroy the eyes of the underworld, and destroy the foundation of the chaotic realm." Chen Yi raised his jaw lightly, speaking loudly, "Otherwise, as long as the core of the chaotic realm exists, the turbid qi and turbid monsters will not be destroyed for a day." completely wiped out."

His tone was taken for granted, making Jiang Qihe feel like he was back 500 years ago, when he was forced to jump off the abyss by the top ten sects.

But this person is Chen Yi, who once cried to follow him, saying "If anyone forces you to do something you don't want to do, then tell him to step over my corpse first".

But Jiang Qihe could no longer feel the pain.

The pain of betrayal has long been numb.

Even Chen Yi's voice just passed through his ears and could not stay in his heart.

Before Chen could finish his sentence, Lu Yunshen dropped his sword abruptly, but it didn't attack him.

The long light flashed past and bit Lian Shanhe's chest.The latter turned sideways in an unhurried manner, Chen Yi's eyes lightly moved, he stepped forward in a wrong step, and swung the long staff on the ground horizontally, blocking the sword for Lian Shanhe.

The sword light exploded immediately, dazzling whiteness in front of his eyes.

But Chen Yi was blindfolded, and Lian Shanhe was the only one who had to lower his eyes to avoid it.The boy took a big step diagonally, wanting to go over to fight Lu Yunshen, but was blocked by Lian Shanhe.

"He didn't want to kill us." Lian Shanhe said in a low voice.

"Then..." The young man whose eyes were covered by the black cloth showed guilt, and tried to chase after him, but was stopped by Lian Shanhe.

Lian Shanhe smiled lightly and said to him: "We don't need to do anything, people from the top ten sects will force Jiang Qihe into the eyes of the underworld for us."

Lu Yunshen took the opportunity to take Jiang Qihe back, and returned to the tunnel just now in the blink of an eye, but the way he came from had disappeared. He looked up and didn't know where to go, so he simply came to the other side of the corridor and stood on top of the two of them. Performed a concealment technique.

"Ah He?" Lu Yunshen turned his head to look at Jiang Qihe. This man was so fragile that he barely stood firm in the corridor with his support.

Jiang Qihe hung his head, the two swords in his hands fell to the ground with a bang, and asked in confusion, "What should I do?"

"It's impossible for me to let you fall into the eyes of the underworld." Lu Yunshen pinched his shoulders, wrapped his arms around his waist, and pressed his forehead against his forehead. His dark eyes were fixed on Jiang Qihe.

Jiang Qihe's eyelashes trembled, but he didn't say a word after all.Lu Yunshen raised his hand to caress his cheek, traced it inch by inch, and finally stopped on the small mole at the end of his eye.

"Ahe, at least at this moment, we can't save Jiang Mian." Lu Yunshen's eyes were fixed on Jiang Qihe's eyes, and he said cruel words in a gentle voice, "If what Lian Shanhe said is true, then Your soul entering the eyes of the underworld is equivalent to sending Jiang Mian to die."

After a while of silence, Jiang Qihe raised his eyelids.The water in his light amber eyes was moist, just like Xieye City where the drizzle never stopped, and there was a cold and melting color everywhere.

"I know."

Jiang Qihe said, his voice was soft and thin, with a quiver at the end.

"I know that Jiang Mian is merging with the Eye of the Underworld. If I go down and destroy the Eye of the Underworld, I will destroy Jiang Mian."

"So what should I do? What should I do...to get Jiang Mian back?"

He helplessly tugged on Lu Yunshen's skirt, his eyes dazed.

"Why is it Jiang Mian every time? Jiang Mian forced me to jump off the virtual abyss, Jiang Mian replaced me to return to the world, and now Jiang Mian wants to become one with the Eye of the Underworld because of me. Why? Why!"

The strength in Jiang Qihe's hands gradually increased, and the piece of plain white cloth was picked up violently, and his sweat-stained fingerprints wiped it away.Crystal clear teardrops slipped from the light-colored pupils, and flowed down the porcelain-like face, wet the front of his chest and wet the raised arms.

tick-

The moment the teardrop hit the ground and shattered, he shook the person in front of him violently.

"I am the so-called Taiqinghun, I am the so-called Taixugu, what did Jiang Mian do wrong, why should Jiang Mian suffer!"

He cried and howled, his voice choked and hoarse.One sound echoed in the empty corridor, one sound scratched Lu Yunshen's heart.

"Just torture me—"

The high-pitched voice suddenly turned low, and the bluish knuckles that were too hard fell from Lu Yunshen's skirt, and collapsed weakly on both sides of his legs.At this moment, Lu Yunshen was unable to support him, and Jiang Qihe collapsed and fell to the ground, staring forward out of focus.

It is said that people who come to Huangquan can't help recalling the past in this life. When Jiang Qihe fell down, he still laughed a little in his heart.

At that time, Jiang Qihe only thought about the future.

In the future, how will you tell Jiang Mian that the head of the ten sages and number one in the world is your brother's unmarried daughter-in-law; where will you find Jiang Mian a body that satisfies him; to help him recuperate...

But these futures are gone, whether good or bad, they have all been reduced to broken bubbles.

Jiang Qihe also began to recall the past endlessly.

He remembered that he had never called Jiang Mian his brother.

At first he didn't yell because he was awkward, Jiang Mian beat him several times for this, but gradually he got used to it, and just let him "Jiang Mian" come and "Jiang Mian".

But Jiang Mian treats him like a brother like a father, like a relative like a friend.

The first time I saw Jiang Mian was on the galloping carriage. Jiang Qihe had just arrived, and was born from his mother's stomach with his last breath, and his body was covered with blood; Described as a mess, covered with stab wounds.

At that time, Jiang Mian was only 16 years old, and he took his hungry and cold oil bottle with him, and started a life of hiding everywhere.

In the early days, they had a hard time, Jiang Mian was hungry and sick because of him.

Later, Jiang Qihe gradually grew up, and together with Jiang Mian, he made many friends, and we all embarked on the journey of cultivation together.

I remember that in the summer when they were 20 years old, on a sunny night, they ran into the enemies of Miejiang's family.

That night, there were swords, lights and swords, and the blood flowed into the unknown river, bright red.

That night, the two of them each held a jar of dirty wine and got very drunk.

The drunk Jiang Mian asked him, "Have you ever thought about what happens after revenge?"

Jiang Qihe wondered what else he could do after taking revenge, so he continued to climb and cultivate this perilous mountain, trying to climb to the top of the mountain, overlooking all living beings.

Jiang Mian said that he wanted to walk around, to see what the recognized places looked like, and to help those who encountered difficulties on the way.

He also said that this world is actually very bitter, so capable people should try to save it, so that the beautiful mountains and rivers depicted in the poems become a realistic picture.

Because of this sentence, for a long time, Jiang Qihe felt that Jiang Mian was naive, and even thought that Jiang Mian might die because of his naivety.

But he died because of Jiang Qihe.

500 years ago on Chuiyun Island, it was said that the world was very difficult, so Jiang Mian, who I was going to rescue, said to Jiang Qihe, run away, if you can, don't worry about me.

This is Jiang Mian, the gentle Jiang Mian, the Jiang Mian who threw life and death more than once for Jiang Qihe.

This kind of Jiang Mian died when Jiang Qihe didn't know about it, and died in a place where Jiang Qihe couldn't save him.

Silently, like a patter of spring rain falling outside the window in the middle of the night in sleep, when you get up in the morning and push the door out, the drizzle has been evaporated by the rising sun.

He is sorry for him.

Jiang Qihe knelt on the cold floor tiles, raised his hands very slowly, and hugged his head.

"Is it true that innocent people always deserve to die?" Jiang Qihe asked softly.

It was difficult for Lu Yunshen to speak, he bit his lower lip, and after a while, he said to Jiang Qihe: "Life means that one day you will die, but it doesn't mean that one person has to die because of another person. "

"You think so too? Jiang Mian shouldn't die because of me?" Jiang Qihe smiled as he spoke.

"No." Lu Yunshen denied, and wiped the corner of Jiang Qihe's lips with his hand, smoothing out that plausible smile, "It was the Lianshan family who was in charge of Tianjing who said that only you could calm the anger of the Sea of ​​Sins; The only one who can solve the crisis in the Chaos Realm is the Lianshan family.

The Lianshan clan is in charge of the heavenly mirror and acts on behalf of the heavenly will, but over the years, when have you ever seen the heavenly way force people to die to save the fate of the world?The way of heaven is ruthless, it never cares whether people live or die.If the common people die, it is the fate of the common people; if the heaven and the earth reopen, it is also the fate of the heaven and the earth. "

Lu Yunshen's expression was very cold when he said this, frost and snow gathered in his eyes, but the moment Jiang Qihe raised his eyes, the cold smile instantly turned into a gentleness like water.

Jiang Qihe murmured: "But Xuyuan..."

Lu Yunshen interrupted him: "Thousands of years, the people who were exiled to Xuyuan were all people who went against the sky and did deeds that offended the way of heaven."

Jiang Qihe lowered his eyes, he seemed to understand somewhat, but he still asked: "What do you mean?"

"You are right. I mean, there is a problem with the Lianshan family who are in charge of Tianjing." Lu Yunshen picked up Jiang Qihe's sword from the ground and slowly stuffed it back into his hand. , Do you think there was a time when the Heavenly Dao issued an instruction to ask sentient beings to ask for help?"

"I understand what you mean, but..." Jiang Qihe said in a low voice.

Lu Yunshen's tone became more and more gentle: "I know, you can't get over the hurdle in your heart now, but let's finish the matter that is pressing ahead, okay? It's true that Jiang Mian is merging with the Eye of the Underworld, but I think we must find a way to separate them."

Jiang Qihe sat on the green brick and thought for a long time. He forced himself to no longer confine his thoughts to Jiang Mian as an individual, but switched to a position where he could observe the overall situation, overlooking the game of chess that started hundreds of years ago.

He was born to be one of the ten saints. The news came from the Lianshan clan, because of the so-called soul of Taiqing and bone of Taixu.

Taixu Gu towns Xuyuan, Taiqing soul breaks Huangquan and destroys chaos, the two places are settled, what benefits can the Lianshan clan get?

The Lian Shan family, who are in charge of the sky mirror and act on behalf of the will of the heaven, are outsiders. It can be said that they are like the heaven and watch the world with cold eyes. Then why did Lian Shanhe and his elder brother rush to help the ten sects to save the common people? ?

On the surface, the top ten sects talk about the righteousness of the common people, but in fact they want to protect their own safety and let the blood continue.As for the Lianshan clan, whether Xuyuan shakes or not, and whether the chaotic state swallows up the seven states, what does it matter to them?The Chikong Mountain where they live in seclusion is suspended in the sky, it is a small world, and has no connection with the Seven States.

It was really suspicious, but Jiang Qihe couldn't figure out why.

But in the end... It was the Lian Shan family who caused him to face death.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Qihe took a deep breath, held down Lu Yunshen's hand that was wiping his tears, and wiped it with his sleeve indiscriminately.

Lu Yunshen pulled him to stand up, straightened his clothes and hair, and then went to the place where the Eye of the Underworld was.

But after walking a few steps, Jiang Qihe suddenly pulled his hand away from Lu Yunshen's, and pointed to the top of his head, "Listen, someone has entered the underworld again."

Master Lu Dazhuang immediately released his spiritual sense, and after exploring it, he didn't blink, "He is the head and elder of the top ten sects."

"It's the head of the Nine Sects." Jiang Qihe corrected him, changed his mind, and asked again: "Can you deal with all of them by yourself?"

"Of course." Lu Yunshen nodded.

"It must have come to force me, so don't show mercy." Jiang Qihe pulled the corners of his lips and smiled ironically, "I'll deal with Lian Shanhe, even if what you said is not true, I can't stand him for a long time gone."

Lu Yun stared at him deeply, then raised his brows suddenly: "Will Shen Wang leave it to you?"

Jiang Qihe pretended to be thinking, and when Lu Yunshen frowned again, he said slowly: "Let's cut it across the board."

"When fighting Lian Shanhe, try to avoid the Eye of the Underworld." Lu Yunshen told him.

Jiang Qihe glared at him, "It's only natural!"

"Then let's..." Lu Yunshen wanted to say that let's part for the time being. I am waiting here for the heads of the nine sects and the elders of the ten sects, but before he could fully say it, he changed his mind, "I'll go and general Lianshan for you." He cited."

Jiang Qihe nodded randomly twice, and when Lu Yunshen took a step, he suddenly hugged him from behind.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yunshen asked in a low voice.

Jiang Qihe rubbed his forehead against the back of his neck and whispered "Thank you".

"There is no need to say thank you between you and me." Lu Yunshen laughed, and turned around to hug Jiang Qihe back.

"I thank you on behalf of Jiang Mian." Jiang Qihe leaned his head on Lu Yunshen's shoulder, hesitantly said, "After solving Lian Shanhe, can I take back the Eye of the Underworld?"

"I'm referring to Chuiyun Island, and I have no place to live, so I can only borrow the idle yard of Xuanjian Villa." Jiang Qihe added.

Lu Yunshen combed Jiang Qihe's hair with his fingers, and let out a "hmm" with a low smile.

But in the blink of an eye, accidents happened suddenly.

The heads of the Nine Sects and the elders of the Ten Sects came here faster than Jiang Qihe imagined. Before he could tear himself off from Lu Yunshen's back, he heard a series of landing sounds resounding around him.

Jiang Qihe has a thick skin and is not afraid of being bumped into, but Master Lu... He looked up at Master Lu's face and found that this man had a smile in his eyes, as if he was not a human being.

"You..." Jiang Qihe narrowed his eyes immediately.

Lu Yunshen: "I cast a concealment technique."

Jiang Qihe lowered the corner of his lips: "Oh..."

Before he finished his tail tune, Lu Yunshen had withdrawn his concealment technique, turned over the epee in his hand, and swiped out.

Not only the head and elders came, but also the three ten saints who had fought in Wushan.

But seeing Lu Yunshen and Jiang Qihe suddenly appear, Hunting Soul Chuanyang, Qiaoque and Qin Mo exchanged glances, then flew out from the crowd, and together with Lu Yunshen, attacked the head and elders.

"Oh? Pretending to be a traitor?" Jiang Qihe drew his long sword, stood back to back with Lu Yunshen in the encirclement, and smiled with crooked eyes, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Qiaoque's voice was as flat and unwavering as before: "As you saw in Wushan, we wish you could die, but it doesn't matter where you die, just not in Huangquan."

Jiang Qihe: "When people die, don't they all have to return to the underworld?"

"The soul returns to the underworld, can you still be summoned back?" Qin Mo interjected.

Jiang Qihe let out a "hey": "What do you mean?"

"We'll talk about it when we get out!" This time it was Hunting Soul Chuanyang who spoke.

Jiang Qihe snorted and laughed out of his nose.

Just at this moment, the iron arrow shot by Hunting Soul piercing Yang was dodged by someone, and that person turned around and came in the direction of Jiang Qihe, it wasn't Shen Wang who was it!

"Lu Xiaobai, I'm sorry, our famous master Shen, delivered it to the door by himself."

Jiang Qihe lifted his eyes, and the sword light swung out like snow. When he folded his body, the corners of his frosty white clothes pulled out arcs of light, rising and falling, like flowers of evening sigh blooming on the shore of the misty sea.
