Chapter 9 The Scar of Extinction

Bai Xun was led by Mo Xinggui to jump off the cliff, and was almost hugged by Mo Xinggui.The body fell rapidly, and the cold wind blew across his cheeks like a knife, causing Bai Xun to close his eyes involuntarily.

The speed of descent suddenly slowed down, Bai Xun opened his eyes, raised his head slightly, and saw that Mo Xinggui was looking down at himself, his face was neither cold nor soft, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing Bai Xun open his eyes, Mo Xinggui asked, "A Xun, are you scared?"

Bai Xun subconsciously wanted to shake his head, the movement was inconvenient, and he said, "I believe in Brother Mo." Mo Xinggui is also considered a big devil, so naturally he would not dare to jump off the cliff unprepared.

Mo Xinggui smiled, his star-like eyes seemed to be slightly soaked in water, Bai Xun was too close, almost completely sinking in, he quickly lowered his head, seeing that the clouds were thinning, and they were already close to the ground.

On the ground, Mo Xinggui let go of Bai Xun.

Bai Xun looked around and saw a very wide stone platform.The stone platform is very dry, without weeds, not even moss, which seems a bit strange.The stone platform is not smooth, but it is roughly flat. It is generally off-white, with a few patches of gray and black. It looks like an ordinary stone.Bai Xun walked to the edge of the stone platform, but there was still a vast cloud and mist below, and he couldn't see the bottom, and he didn't know how far it was from the real ground.

"How did Brother Mo know that there is a platform here?" Bai Xun asked after looking around, "Is it also because of Bai Rumo?"

"No, it's me." Mo Xing returned and walked slowly to the stone wall.

Bai Xun was puzzled, seeing that Mo Xinggui seemed to be stroking the stone wall, and when he got closer, he saw large scratches on the same dry stone wall.

"What is this?" Bai Xun also touched it, the stone wall was cold and his tentacles were uneven.The scratches are deep and shallow, horizontal and vertical, of different lengths, and piled up messily.The scratches were as high as the waistline, the lower ones were too messy to distinguish, and the upper ones seemed to be written and crossed out.

"There seems to be... engraved orthographic characters, could it be to record the time?" Bai Xun finally recognized it, and was indescribably surprised.

This stone platform is in the mid-air of the cliff, who can come here to engrave characters, and each stroke seems to be extremely difficult?

Bai Xun touched the slightly dark spots with his fingertips, and his doubts intensified: "It seems to be blood. The scratches are old, but they haven't been weathered and smoothed, and the blood is still there. How long have these things been left?"

"100 years." Mo Xing returned, his fingertips slowly scribing dark brown blood.

"100 years? These things are 100 years old? 100 years of wind and rain, the scratches should have been smoothed out, not to mention the blood, but why—" Bai Xun didn't believe it, and suddenly reacted, "These are Mo Brother left?"

"Yes, these are all carved by me." Mo Xinggui said, looking down at the scratches on the rock, brushing his fingertips over the rough stone surface, his tone became much lower, "There used to be a big tree growing here, There are also many vines and grasses. I dropped them from the top and landed on the edge of the stone platform. After climbing for a few days, I finally got under the tree. I finally had a shelter from the wind and rain. I lay here almost motionless for 170 nine days. , relying on absorbing the spiritual energy of the big trees and passing birds. The birds have spirits, and if a few more die, they will not come. The big trees and vegetation are exhausted by me. In the end, I have exhausted the spiritual energy of the mountains and rocks, and even the moss. If I can't grow another one, I can only rely on the rain and snow to survive, and I finally survived. These scratches were carved by my left hand, which can only move, and each one is stained with my blood." Mo Xing Gui twirled a pinch of ash from the stone wall, smiled at the ash on his fingertips, and shook it off with his hands.

Bai Xun was so shocked that he couldn't get any further, and it took him a while to recover his voice: "Why... who made Brother Mo like that?" Bai Xun imagined what Mo Xinggui said, and his heart ached.

Mo Xinggui said calmly: "It's all thanks to Lin Xuhuai. Has Ah Xun heard of sea lotus?"

"Ocean lotus?" Bai Xun shook his head, "I've never heard of it before. From the name, it's probably a spirit grass among the snow lotus and ganoderma?"

Mo Xinggui said: "The Motian clan is born with a longer lifespan than ordinary people, and the sea lotus is a sacred object of the Motian clan. It is said that eating it can gain the power of the Motian clan and live forever. Xiaomo and I went to Mount Shu, and Lin Xuhuai wanted to get the sea lotus. Lotus, lead me into the Demon Discrimination Formation. It is said to be Demon Discrimination, but in fact it is just a cage specially made by Lin Xuhuai to capture my Motian clan. The Lin thief tortured me exhaustively, he tasted my flesh and blood, hoping to live forever, But I failed. I escaped, jumped off the cliff, and lived here as a living dead for more than 100 days, until Yin Xiao came to save me."

"I didn't expect it to be Master Xuhuai..." Bai Xun was very surprised. Although he didn't have any special feelings for this senior from the same sect, Lin Xuhuai was a powerful master respected by Shushan, and Bai Xun had heard a lot about him since he was a child. Legendary story, now knowing that he did such a despicable thing, it is still a little unbelievable for a while, "What about Bai Rumo? Where is he? He led you to Shushan, but almost killed you, and he let you be tortured ?"

Mo Xinggui said: "He was lured into Qianji Pavilion by Lin Xuhuai for three days. When he came out, I was caught by the Lin thief, and the Lin thief even lied to him that I went back to Kunlun. Later, Lin Xuhuai led many greedy They attacked Motian, fearing that Xiaomo would report the news, and put him under house arrest in Qianji Pavilion, Xiaomo escaped desperately and rushed to Motian, but unfortunately Motian was already in ruins." When talking about the events of the year, Mo Xinggui's voice still couldn't help but trembling.

"Brother Mo..." Bai Xun wanted to comfort Mo Xinggui, but there was no way to comfort him for a while, and finally he could only solemnly say, "Brother Mo, I will not leave, this time I will be with you."

Mo Xinggui smiled, raised his hand and brushed the corners of Bai Xun's eyes, and finally patted him on the shoulder: "I was afraid that you would be kidnapped, so I took you away, you don't blame me, do you?"

Bai Xun shook his head and said, "Brother Mo, were you already investigating when you were in Shushan? But Xuhuai——Lin Xuhuai was seriously injured and died by Yin Xiao a hundred years ago. Could it be another reason?"

Mo Xinggui sighed: "Ah Xun, you are too kind." Looking at Bai Xun's eyes, he couldn't bear it, but he still asked, "If I end up against Shushan, which side do you stand on?"

Bai Xun frowned, not because he felt embarrassed, but because he couldn't bear it: "I want to tell the truth to Brother Mo, I only stand on the side of reason." He paid close attention to Mo Xinggui's expression, but did not catch any changes, and then He added, "But no matter what, I will protect Brother Mo, because I believe Brother Mo will not do bad things."

Mo Xinggui smiled, followed Bai Xun's expectation and said, "Well, I won't let you down." Walking to the edge of the platform, he turned around and extended his hand to Bai Xun, "Ah Xun, come, let's leave Shushan."

Bai Xun looked at Mo Xinggui, who was standing on the edge of the cliff, with the wind blowing his clothes, as if he was going to ride the wind.Bai Xun was inexplicably flustered, and hurried forward: "How do we get out of here?"

Mo Xinggui once again stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his waist: "Just follow me." He tapped his toes, leaped out, stretched his sleeves like a roc, and slowly fell into the clouds.

Bai Xun was led by Mo Xinggui to jump off Shuying Peak, and finally fell to the bottom of the mountain after landing several times.At the bottom of the mountain was a deep valley with a faint river flowing. The two went down the river. After nightfall, they didn't see any people, so they spent the night in a forest.

After eating game, Mo Xinggui asked Bai Xun to rest and kept watch by himself.Bai Xun insisted that he did not want Mo Xinggui to work alone, and finally agreed that Mo Xinggui would stay in the first half of the night and he would stay in the second half of the night.

Bai Xun lay down and watched Mo Xinggui pull some firewood, and then sat in front of the fire.Mo Xinggui blocked the blazing fire, Bai Xun watched the faintly flickering light leaking from his broad back, and soon fell asleep.

Falling into a dream, Bai Xun seemed to see Mo Xinggui being chased to the edge of the cliff in Moxiangyuan.He was covered in wounds, and the blood soaked the clothes layer by layer, turning red into black.

The immortal Taoist walked out of the crowd and said something to Mo Xinggui. Mo Xinggui smiled mockingly, turned around and jumped off the cliff.

Mo Xinggui, who fell halfway, was blocked by the branches of the big tree, and finally fell on the platform.The big tree grew obliquely from the mountain wall, its branches and leaves were luxuriant, when the heavy rain fell, the big tree blocked some of the raindrops, Mo Xinggui was still woken up by the icy cold rain.

After waking up, Mo Xinggui wanted to go under the tree to shelter from the rain, but he couldn't move at all. He looked at the stone wall not far away, so close to the sky.

Mo Xinggui dragged his remnant body and crawled towards the stone wall little by little. After an unknown amount of time, the rainstorm stopped, and the sun rose and the sun rose and set. Mo Xinggui's fingers finally touched the stone wall and wiped the gray-green stains on the stone wall. Moss stained a touch of red.

Mo Xinggui was tired, and fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up, he still felt worse than death, so he could only hang his breath and survive by absorbing the spiritual energy of the big tree.He peeled off the moss bit by bit, and repeatedly scratched his fingers on the stone wall, drawing shallow marks. His fingers didn't stop when they were worn out, and he recorded the days crookedly and stroke by stroke.

There are more and more messy strokes under the stone wall, the big trees are withered, and even the moss on the stone wall is dry and falling off.Until one day, the stone wall completely lost its aura, Mo Xinggui woke up, stared blankly at the gray stone wall, and shed tears.

Only a few drops of tears fell, Mo Xinggui started to laugh.He couldn't laugh out loud, and finally there was nothing but despair in his eyes.

"No—don't—Xinggui!" Bai Xun woke up startled, sat up immediately, and eagerly looked for Mo Xinggui's figure, but he couldn't find it.

The surrounding area was empty, and Mo Xinggui had disappeared.The fire was still burning quietly, Bai Xun looked at the shallow flames, his heart seemed to be empty, and tears fell down.
