Ask with the devil [Xiu Xian]

Lu Sha's aura gradually disappeared.

The demon lord threw his corpse on the ground. Most of the high-level demon cultivators died without decay, but for some reason, Lu Sha's corpse visibly scattered into flying sand and was blown away by the wind.

It was as if this person had never existed in this world.

There was only a little sparkle of aura, which slowly floated in front of Ji Linchuan.

There was an inexplicable throbbing in Ji Linchuan's heart, and he wanted to reach out to take it, but the devil grabbed his wrist, "Don't touch it."

Ji Linchuan looked at the crystal light spot and said, "What is this?"

The devil said: "It's cause and effect." After a pause, he added, "The cause and effect of fate."

Ji Linchuan frowned, and said, "What exactly did you see in Lu Sha's memory? Why did he die and what remained was someone else's karma?"

The devil said: "I told you the story of raising fish."

"What's the matter?"

The demon master said: "Originally, the reason why the fish can live is because of the existence of the fish breeder. If the supply from the source is constant, the fish will not stop. Now the fish breeder is dead and the food is gone, but there are still fish alive. Why?"

Ji Linchuan clenched his five fingers suddenly, and then slowly loosened them. He looked down at the lines on his palm, but felt that there seemed to be an extremely dense net covering him.

He said dryly: "Because they... are killing each other and feeding on their companions.

The demon master took this white light into his palm and hid it in an invisible place in the world. He patted the opponent's shoulder lightly and said, "Don't think too much about it."

Ji Linchuan fell silent.

After a long time, he said: "Before, you said that you are also raising fish..."

"That's right, it's just that I don't keep it now." The devil replied lightly.

Ji Linchuan: "Why?"

"I was bitten by a fish, and my heart hurt so badly, so I stopped raising it." The demon master said, and said seriously: "So now I raise something else."

"What?"

"Lian. Frozen snow lotus."

"This lotus is only born in the extremely cold snowy region, and its nature is extremely lonely and cold, but it needs to be watered with the nine heavenly yang essence, the scorching flower, carefully cared for, and persevering, so that the flowers will bloom. The time is also Not sure, maybe ten or a hundred years, or thousands of years, or my whole life, it is rare to see a beautiful face."

"Since it's so difficult to raise, why do you need to raise it?" Ji Linchuan asked.

In his eyes, the devil really didn't seem like such a patient person.

"Of course it's because..." The demon lord chuckled, "I'm happy."

"..."

Lu Sha had been removed, and Ji Linchuan was not used to it for a while when the burden of ten thousand loads was unloaded so easily.

But the conversation with the demon lord was still in his heart. He had a hunch that this matter was far from over.

But before that, he had to go back to Xuanxianzong.

Since his ascension, due to Lu Sha's various obstructions, he has never been to the sect of the upper realm. When a passerby asked him, he found out that more than [-] years had passed since he ascended to the upper realm.

One day in the sky, one hundred days on the earth, such a detailed count, I am afraid that more than [-] years have passed in the lower realm, the vicissitudes of life, the old friends, those who can ascend may have ascended long ago, and those who cannot ascend have already turned into loess and reincarnated. , or there is still a chance to enter the Tao in the next life, but he is no longer the same person as before.

In the past, the brothers and sisters of the Xuanxian Sect in the Tianling Realm, as well as the acquaintances of the nine regions and eighteen states, and the comrades who fought together against the catastrophe of heaven and earth, seemed to have been submerged in the endless river of time.

Even Ji Linchuan couldn't help feeling melancholy.

Suddenly, I was a little curious, standing on the long river of time and the sea of ​​reincarnation, looking down on the scenery, what is it like.

So he asked the devil next to him.

It was beyond his expectation that the Demon Lord was still with him this time.In his expectation, he hadn't been outside for a long time, and with the devil's temperament, he must dive into the sea and make a big commotion, but he didn't think that he didn't leave, but hid his identity, pretending to be an ordinary monk and He walks.

According to the Demon Lord, walking with him is because he took up the shell of his old friend, and the feeling of taking care of him does not worry him, and secondly, he is very curious about the current situation in the fairy world, so he went on the same journey together.

On the way, Ji Linchuan also mentioned asking him to change his body, but he failed, so he had to go.

"Tsk, you want to ask me what scenery I am..." The devil's voice was low and a bit lazy, and he paused for a moment, as if he was thinking.

He wore half a silver mask covering his handsome and evil face.He got this mask himself, and he put it on at some point, and Ji Linchuan didn't persuade him, after all, seeing the face of that old man every day, he inevitably felt a little uncomfortable.

"Did you see the mountain over there?" the devil said.

Ji Linchuan nodded slightly.

"People on the mountain look down on the city, just like people look down on a leaf at their feet. When I look down on the river of time and the sea of ​​reincarnation, it's like looking at the city from the top of a mountain. It's just that the bustle and bustle of the city has nothing to do with me. And the people inside and the leaves under their feet, to me, are not very different."

Ji Linchuan understood a little bit, and said again: "Just looking down, can't you touch it?"

The demon master showed a bit of admiration in his eyes, and said: "You guessed well."

"Fish can drift with the current in the water, but fish farmers can only stand on the shore."

"If only you could dip your body into the water, stir it up, or even change the direction of the water—"

"Congratulations, at that time, you will be the supreme Taoist master in this world. And the resurrection technique you want to perform on your old friend can be performed with just a snap of your fingers."

Ji Linchuan remained silent, but what came to mind was not long ago, when he returned to the world, the demon lord sneered at the revival technique——

"... Even if you are able to perform it in the future, but your heart is like a rotten tree, you have no desire and no emotion, so how can you perform it for the people of the past."
