Biography of Xi Shan

The three of them walked along the stream in the middle. The scenery along the way was beautiful, and there was no strange and dangerous atmosphere at all. Compared with the dangerous place in the rumors, it was more like a place suitable for outings and enjoying spring.

After walking for almost an hour, the stream at the foot zigzags forward, and finally coincides with the scene in Lin Zixiao's dream. The three streams converge into one, stretching straight forward, and their There was an open space in front of him, and there was a coffin on the open space!

The coffin does not give people a gloomy feeling, it is surrounded by green grass and flowers, colorful flowers swaying with the breeze, and a charming fragrance is exuded around it.

The drunkard head was surprised and said: "This... this is too weird, who buried the coffin here."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Daozhen, but he saw Chen Daozhen staring at the coffin obsessively, and said in a low voice, "This is it."

Chen Daozhen murmured something, but the alcoholic got closer to hear it clearly.

"Life is death, resurgence, the cycle of life and death, breaking the suffering of samsara."

"Master, what are you talking about?"

Chen Daozhen said: "The entrance that Pavilion Master Ye said is here, drunk head, you go and lift the coffin lid."

The drunk head backed away in panic, his head shaking like a copper bell, and he said in a hurry: "I don't, I won't go, you have to go by yourself, please forgive me, I'm cowardly, it's up to me Can't do it."

The drunkard head was refusing, when he saw Lin Zixiao stepping up and pushing open the coffin lid, and gave him a contemptuous glance.

The drunkard closed his mouth in embarrassment, and shrank his head resentfully.

Lin Zixiao glanced into the coffin, and said excitedly, "It's empty inside, there is a staircase."

The drunkard general doubted: "Then what's the matter, hehe, I'm so fat, I can't even go down the stairs." He thought to himself, isn't the place where the coffin passes is the underworld?It might as well have a pile of bones in it.

Chen Daozhen hugged Jing Ji across his chest, and said, "I'll take Jing Er down, you don't have to follow."

Jiu Guitou and Lin Zixiao looked at each other, and probably understood that this was the last hurdle.

Lin Zixiao frowned, hesitantly said: "It's better to be together..."

"No need." Chen Daozhen interrupted him, full of deep meaning, "What you owe me, you have already paid enough."

Lin Zixiao tightly pursed his lips without saying a word, his eye sockets suddenly turned red and bloodshot.

The drunkard looked at Chen Daozhen, then at Lin Zixiao, he sighed, took Lin Zixiao's arm and took a step back, "Let them walk the road below."

Lin Zixiao covered his face in pain. He remembered the cold winter when his aunt kicked him out. Before his parents were dead, his uncle conspired to usurp his family property. beggar.

At that time even beggars didn't want to see him, everyone said, "Look, how could that fat man be a beggar? Can he get enough to eat by begging?"

Chen Daozhen brought him out of the abyss of despair, he was brought into the Wuji sect, but no one taught him martial arts, he called Chen Daozhen the young master, not the senior brother like all the servants.

"Master..." Tears flowed from between his fingers, one was the benefactor who saved his life, and the other was the senior brother who was very affectionate to him.

And following Lin Zixiao's last glance, the coffin suddenly closed by itself, plunged into the ground, and disappeared from the sight of the two of them as if it had never appeared before.

Chen Daozhen took two steps with Jing Ji in his arms, and suddenly the coffin closed, and there was a violent shaking under his feet, and his whole body sank along with the coffin.

After a while, the vibration under the feet disappeared, and everything returned to calm, but the surroundings were pitch black, and there was no light to be seen.

Chen Daozhen frowned, dragged the young man with one hand, and took out the fire pocket with the other hand.

The faint light dimly illuminated the surroundings. It seemed to be a cave. The walls were covered with damp moss.

Chen Daozhen carried Jing Ji on his shoulder, holding the fire zip in one hand, and after walking seven or eight steps, the fire zip went out.

He sighed, threw the fire bag casually, and accidentally kicked the stone on the steps with his toe, and the stone suddenly fell down, flying all the way to the bottom of the cave.

Chen Daozhen's ears moved. Although his hearing was not as good as Jing Ji's, he was still sensitive. However, after listening for a long time, he never heard the sound of a stone falling to the ground.

With a shudder in his heart, he took out an ingot of silver and threw it down, like a feather falling off a cliff, without making any movement, the ingot of silver seemed to have disappeared into the air.

Chen Daozhen was very puzzled, if this was a bottomless pit, who would spend so much effort to build such a long staircase here?And where does this staircase lead?Could it be that going out is a land of no desire?

Chen Daozhen was full of doubts, but he didn't dare to delay, he hugged the young man and walked all the way down by instinct.

At this moment, his feet suddenly stepped on the ground, and he suddenly realized that there were no more stairs. This coffin was probably just a trap.

However, he was not allowed to think too much, his whole body including the boy in his arms had already flown out, and fell hard into the bottomless pit.

His body was falling rapidly, and it was difficult for him to control his body. The only thing he could do was to hold the boy in his arms tightly to prevent them from being separated.

I don't know how long it has been falling, but I can only feel that the speed of the descent is getting faster and faster. There is a smell of rotting corpses around. The smell is mixed with a damp musty smell, which makes people very sick.

Chen Daozhen hugged the boy tightly, resting his head with one hand, a gleam of light came in front of his eyes, and he seemed to be able to see the dirty and damp ground.

Chen Daozhen used all his strength to hit the ground with his palm, and stabilized his body with the rebound of internal force, but this was almost like fetching water from a bamboo basket, and his efforts were wasted.

With a "bang", his body hit the ground heavily, almost all the bones in his body were shattered, and there was a piercing pain in the back of his head.

Chen Daozhen opened his eyes and looked up at the sky feebly, his throat felt sweet, and blood trickled out from the corner of his mouth.

When he closed his eyes, the only thing he felt lucky about was that the young man was still resting on top of him, peaceful and peaceful...

Chen Daozhen moved his body with difficulty, the blood at the back of his head no longer flowed, and clotted into a blood clot.He had already lost feeling in his left hand, and he barely supported his body with his right hand and sat up.

It took him nearly half an hour to recover, his clothes were stained red with blood, and his sense of pain was already numb.

Laughter like silver bells suddenly sounded, and the faint morning light sprinkled on the entrance of the cave, illuminating the end of the road.

"Let's go back quickly, the witch will come to collect medicine later."

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of that old woman, but she is very fierce."

The two little girls were smiling and talking, their voices gradually drifting away.

Chen Daozhen wanted to call them back, but his voice was stuck in his throat. He laughed miserably, hugged the young man's body with the last bit of strength, and closed his eyes slumped.

After a while, the voices of the two little girls came back.One of the voices flinched and said: "Madam Wu, we won't come here next time, don't, don't tell the patriarch."

Then a hoarse voice sounded, "This is not what my old lady meant, the patriarch ordered that no one is allowed to come here, have you all forgotten?"

Another little girl pursed her lips and muttered, "Didn't you also come here to collect medicine?"

"What did you say?" The witch's voice suddenly increased. She was wearing black clothes, her messy hair was wrapped in a black scarf, and she had a strange smell, like the smell of medicinal herbs or the smell of rotting plants. .In short, when she squinted and slanted over, she could make people tremble all over, frighten the shit out of them, the little girls here saw her scared, and they always had to take a detour when they saw her.

"Who?" The witch turned her head again, squinting her eyes to look at the hole, "Why is the sealed hole opened again, there is movement inside, I want to see who is coming to die without knowing what to do!"

The two little girls looked at each other, held hands tightly and followed behind the witch.

The Land of No Desire is isolated from the world, and once tried to go out, after a dispute with Panpo Village, it completely led to the extreme xenophobia of the people here.

The witch took out a dagger, pushed aside the leaves covering the hole, and tiptoed inside.

As they entered, Chen Daozhen also heard the movement, and turned his head slowly.

"Ah!" The two little girls cried out in unison when they saw Chen Daozhen's appearance.

Chen Daozhen was sitting against the wall, his face was covered with blood, his left hand was hanging limply, it looked as if his bones were broken, and there was a person lying on his lap, his eyes were tightly closed, and his face was covered with blood. covered in blood.

The two of them just stayed in the corner without a sound. The man sitting in the pool of blood was as eerie as a Rakshasa. His face was as pale as a dead man, but his eyes gave off a sense of oppression.

The witch laughed, she relaxed her vigilance and said with a smile: "There are two half-dead people here, let my old lady entertain you well."

Chen Daozhen's eyes were cautious, he lowered his eyes, and raised them with a pleading expression.He didn't talk to the witch, but looked at the two little girls behind him, and said with difficulty: "Save him..."

The little girl looked at each other in blank dismay, but dared not make any moves.

The witch let out a gloomy laugh, she strode forward, grabbed Jing Ji's collar with one hand, and lifted him up.

Chen Daozhen narrowed his eyes, the pain in his limbs almost overwhelmed him, but his face was sullen, and he was still struggling for the last time.

The witch sized Jing Ji up, and said with a sinister smile, "Eternal Sleep Gu, this is my adoptive father's Gu, and he can still be saved."

Chen Daozhen looked up at her.

The witch threw down a dagger, and laughed strangely, "You stab him in the chest, and I'll save him. How about it, one life for another, isn't it worth it?"

The two little girls were startled, and one of them was about to speak but was held back by the other.The two were really a little scared, they looked at each other and gave up trying to dissuade them.

However, what the witch and the two little girls didn't expect was that Chen Daozhen didn't think about it at all. He grabbed the dagger and stabbed his chest fiercely. Blood gushed out. With a mouthful of blood in his mouth, he used With the last of his strength, he said, "Save him..."

The witch suddenly seemed to be stimulated, and her whole body trembled. She lowered her head and said gloomily, "Young man, it's time for you to understand a truth. In this world, everything is not fair. He's about to die, what's the use of living alone? Why don't you let my old lady give him a ride, and stay with you on the way to Huangquan!"

Chen Daozhen narrowed his eyes, the pain and anger made him burst out with unprecedented strength in an instant, he clenched his palms, and slammed towards the witch.

The witch flashed her figure and dodged it cleverly. She laughed loudly and said, "You are quite capable, but it's the end of the day. The end of the hero, at least someone will accompany you."

Chen Daozhen couldn't support his crumbling body any longer. He wanted to cheer up, but the reality was just the opposite. He closed his eyes slowly and fell into the final deep sleep. At the moment he closed his eyes, he was in pain. Watching the witch's black sharp nails climb up the boy's neck.

Just when the witch was about to make a move, the girl named Lin Xiaowan stopped her and said, "Forget it, ma'am, one of them has already died, and this one is still a child. Please spare him."

The witch pushed Xiaowan away, and said viciously: "Have you forgotten how the villagers of Panpo Village treated us? Children outside, who can kill people at the age of ten, are not good things. All people in the martial arts are The enemy of my witch!" Her expression became distorted, and a variety of complex emotions surfaced on her face.

In the end, all these emotions were passed on to Jing Ji, as if killing him could temporarily ease the hatred in her heart.

Xiaowan's face was sweating anxiously, she looked at Wu Wuzi tremblingly, but she didn't dare to take another step forward.

The witch grabbed Jing Ji by the collar, ready to strangle him to death.

Just when she was about to make a move, she saw the boy's face clearly, and she seemed to feel a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before. A strange feeling rose in the heart of the witch, as if she had returned to the past time sourly.

While pushing and shoving, the witch messed up the boy's collar, and she suddenly found a scar in the shape of a peach blossom on the boy's collarbone!

The witch seemed to have received a huge blow, she quickly let go of the boy, hugged her head and shrank in a corner, talking quickly, and then suddenly, she saw the boy fell to the ground weakly, and quickly jumped He climbed up, hugged the boy's body, tears fell down, and shouted hoarsely to the two girls: "Go and call someone."
