["I heard that someone has made a list of painful punishments in the world. The karmic fire calcination in the soul refining pool of the underworld is ranked first, and the Ling Chi in the human world is ranked sixth. Squeeze into the top ten."] Walking on the way to Fuxiantai, Shuli's voice was relaxed, and she was still in the mood to chat with Asa, 【"I don't know if it's true or not."】【"..."】

【"Angry?"】

【"No."】

【"The fairyland is deserted. I've been here for almost a year, so it's so boring."】【"Yeah."】

【"Every time you use 'um' to perfuse me."】

【"What do you want to hear?"】

【"you guess."】

After a moment of silence, Asa said lightly: 【"Don't be afraid."】

Shuli stepped onto the Bound Immortal Terrace, turned her head to look at the fairy official who was rushing over here, curled her eyelashes, 【"Well, I'm not afraid."】...

When Shuli woke up, she immediately saw Liu Yuan sitting beside his bed with her eyes closed.

The young ghost king's skin was as pale as cold jade, his eyebrows and eyelashes were jet-black, a hump slightly protruded from the bridge of his tall nose, and his red lips curled into thin and graceful curves.

It was the same handsome face as in the previous life.

At that time his name was Changsheng.

Xu Changsheng failed to live forever, but died in his crown year.

He suffered 49 knives and spent [-] years in the Soul Refining Pool before he became what he is today.

He wasn't supposed to be like this.

Liu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, and was caught off guard by Shang Shuli's eyes staring at him, slightly startled.

Shuli bent his eyes at him and asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

"...five days."

"It's been so long."

Liu Yuan was silent and didn't answer.

"I dreamed about being deboned and veined in the fairy world."

Liu Yuan's fingers moved, and the corners of his lips tightened.

"It hurts." Shuli's eye circles turned red for a moment, as if she was wronged or coquettish, and she repeated in a low voice, "It really hurts."

The cold and pale fingertips stopped at a little water overflowing from the corner of Shuli's eyes, and Liu Yuan lowered his eyelashes to look at him, and said softly: "I know."

A tear fell on Liu Yuan's knuckles.

"do not Cry."

Shuli raised her hand to cover her eyes, "I just... just feel ashamed because I got hit by my nightmare technique."

"It's not shameful." Liu Yuan paused, "You have always been very good."

"Really?" Shuli didn't put down her hand, but the corners of her lips curled up, "I think so too."

In the endless dark night, a bright moon hangs high above the sky, shining brightly, the Wangchuan River in the distance meanders by, and the dark red manjusawa gently sways in the moonlight.

Liu Yuan sat on a cliff corner, the corners of his black clothes fluttered slightly with the wind.His eyes are half-downcast, his eyelashes are long and thick, and when the moonlight falls, there are thin shadows under his eyes, like two butterfly wings.

He was quietly lost in thought, his middle finger knuckles curled, and he tapped his knees one after another.

He has lived two lifetimes, but he has never tasted the taste of love, nor does he know what love is, what is heartbeat.

Shuli said that the heartbeat is the moment when she saw that person, her heart suddenly moved, and it seemed to be suddenly empty, and she wanted to see him all the time from then on.

He has never felt this way, and he doesn't know the truth of this statement.

He actually asked Bai Lian once when he bumped into her.

Bai Lian was stunned for a moment, stumbled a bit when answering, and said, "I like it... probably because I put my mind on that person, want to see him, want to be with him, and be with him for a long time."

He was a little confused: "What can liking bring, so that the world will never forget it and pursue it diligently?"

"Like is happy, heart is happy, it is natural to make people happy."

"Happy?" He frowned, "...what if it hurts?"

Bai Lian was taken aback, "Pain?"

He often feels pain when facing Shuli.

Seeing that Shuli is smiling, but her eyes show a little sadness, she will feel pain; Shuli will feel pain when she falls into his arms after being hit by the nine-headed baby of hell; Shuli will be trapped in a nightmare and will not wake up She feels pain when her expression is painful; Shuli feels pain when she can’t help but guess the reason for killing God; Shuli whispers pain, and she feels pain when she sheds tears in front of him.

Even in the end, just looking at Shuli once would make him painful.

Sometimes it's just a faint tingling pain in my heart, and sometimes it's an unbearable, tormenting pain.

It was as if Shuli's existence was more to bring him pain.

It is clear that he is a person who is used to being patient and suffering.

Bai Lian said to him: "That is love."

"Love?"

"There is a saying in the world that liking makes people feel joy, but love makes people feel pain." Seeing his incomprehensible expression, Bai Lian explained, "If you fall in love with someone, you will be happy because of his joy. , hurt because of his pain. You will be born with weakness because of him, because of his thoughts, if you can't stay together, you will suffer even more."

He didn't ask again.Hearing this, he already felt a little pain.

Suddenly, Liu Yuan frowned slightly, and said softly without looking back: "Come out."

After a few rustling noises from the cloth, Shuli sat beside him, with a smile in her eyes: "My lord is always in a daze lately."

"..."

"Is there something bothering you? You can tell me, maybe I can solve it."

"you?"

"Me." The ending sound was light and playful.

After a long silence, Liu Yuan asked: "That time in Yaoyue Tower, you said that I look like an old friend of yours? Who is it?"

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuan would mention this, Shuli was stunned for a while, and didn't make a sound for a long time.

Liu Yuan glanced at him, "What?"

Shuli came back to her senses, thinking about how to answer, suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, "Did I say that?" He blinked, "My lord, you remembered wrongly, I never said that. You are the most unique person in the world." How can different people be similar to others."

"You're still crying."

"Crying—" Shuli choked for a moment, and then said plausibly, "That's because you made me cry."

Liu Yuan: "..."

Seeing that Shuli looked back at him innocently, with a determined denial, Liu Yuan knew that there would be no result if he asked again, so he simply ignored him.

The night wind blows, and everything is quiet.

Shuli propped her head to look at the people around her.The ghost king of the underworld is used to having a cold and stern expression, which makes people feel inaccessible, but at this moment, although his face is expressionless, the side face with long eyelashes drooping lightly gives birth to a little tranquility and tenderness in the night.

With a movement of Shuli's fingertips, small spots of light slowly rose around, flickering on and off, like fireflies all over the sky, illuminating the world.

A little firefly landed on Liuyuan's hair, and he turned to look at Shuli.

Under the moonlight, amidst the streaming fireflies, the beauty with black hair and snow skin bent his eyes and smiled at him, his eyes seemed to be swaying like a streamer, "Does it look good?"

Pausing for a moment, Liu Yuan withdrew his gaze and said in a low voice, "It looks good."

"When I was in the fairy world, there was a sea of ​​stars in front of my Soaring Heaven Palace, but unfortunately I couldn't let you see it." Shuli's voice was soft and sweet, "Now I give you these stars."

The corner of Liu Yuan's lips twitched, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Liu Yuan met Shang Shuli's bright eyes and hesitated, "You... like the fairy world?"

Shuli was taken aback, his smile faded slowly, he pursed his lips, "The fairyland is very big and empty, it is always daytime, everyone has their own palace. Immortals like things that shine, so there are many white jade in the fairyland And crystal stone, it looks gorgeous and solemn... The most beautiful place should be Lu Nongxian's palace, where the aura of heaven and earth gathers, and it is always shrouded in light mist, and in the fog is a large sea of ​​shining flowers."

"..."

"But I don't like it." Shuli said lightly, "I don't like it there, and I don't like those gods."

A long silence followed.

The light around him suddenly dimmed.

Shuli said "ah": "The mana is not enough—" Before he finished speaking, he opened his eyes slightly.

Liu Yuan reached out and held his fingertips.

As soon as the luminous light shines, it immediately drifts away in all directions, shining brightly like a sea of ​​stars.

"Return."

……

Liu Yuan had just returned to his cave when the intense pain of burning his body swept over.

At that time, he even had a little smile on his face, but his expression changed in an instant, and he staggered and knelt down in front of the cold jade platform.

He lay halfway on the ground, and the first thing he felt was not severe pain, but dazedness, like a hallucination being knocked to pieces in an instant, or suddenly awakened from a good dream.

The young ghost king had a pale face, and his eyes were empty.

He suddenly understood what Bai Lian said.

He also understood the source of his pain.

Unknowingly, that person became his weakness in this way, causing him to have unrealistic fantasies in a trance, wanting to protect him, wanting to be with him, wanting to be with him for a long time and to be with him.

"For a long time, we will be together. For a long time, we will be together..." Liu Yuan murmured, with blood in his throat, over and over again, the final sound was soft and hoarse, with a momentary change of tone.

Like choking.

For a long time, they depend on each other.

How can.

"My lord? My lord? Are you there my lord?" Standing outside Liuyuan's cave, Shuli was blocked by the ban and could only ask.

There was no movement in the grotto for a long time.

【"Are you sure he's in there?"】

【"Um."】

Shuli frowned.

Shuli originally thought that Liu Yuan's attitude towards him had been greatly relaxed during this time, so she had to strike while the iron was hot.Unexpectedly, since the chat at the corner of the cliff, he has not seen the shadow of Lord Ghost King for several days in a row.Now when he came to the door, Liu Yuan was inside, but he kept silent, obviously not wanting to see him.

It's really a man's heart, a sea needle.

……

Liu Yuan didn't practice for three whole days, but just sat on the edge of the cold jade platform in a daze.He had already sensed Shuli's approach, but he remained motionless, hearing Shuli's voice coming in clearly.

【"My lord, I think it's been a month since the last time I experienced the pain of karmic fire. If so, if... I'll come back tomorrow."】The young Ghost King's eyelashes are half-down, and the Ling Xiaoyu between his fingers emits a bright blue light .

What if?

If he caught himself having an attack, would he use his whole body's aura to soothe his pain like that time?

Liu Yuan sat quietly, listening to the sounds outside fading away.

After a long time, his figure flashed and disappeared in place.

……

Liu Yuan came to the wonton stand on the street of Dachu Jingdu.

Probably because of his outstanding appearance, the proprietress recognized him at a glance, and asked specially when she was cleaning the tables and stools for him: "Where was the young master last time? Didn't he come with you?"

Liu Yuan was silent for a moment, and said: "He has something to do."

After he was seated, he quietly watched the proprietress serve the wontons.The middle-aged woman wore a red-bottomed apron, and she moved skillfully and neatly. A few strands of hair hung on the side of her face. She didn't have the beauty of her previous life, but she was still gentle.

Sister.

He called her that in his heart.

The proprietress came over with the wontons and put them in front of the Liuyuan table, and greeted with a smile: "Eat slowly."

The sea bowl is steaming, and the thin-skinned wontons with a lot of stuffing are floating up and down, and they are delicious and fragrant.

In his previous life, his elder sister also cooked a good bowl of wontons, and often brought them to his room when he was studying until late at night, smiling and letting him finish eating and go to bed.

Liu Yuan moved his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end he just thanked him.

He held the spoon and never moved.

He dare not.

It was evening now, the sky was getting dark, and there were only sparse groups of pedestrians on the street.The old man walked in the sunset with a handful of candied haws, hawking all the way: "Candied haws—big and sweet candied haws—two pennies a bunch—"

The curtain of the wonton stand was lifted abruptly, and a seven or eight-year-old boy ran out and shouted, "Mom! Mom, I want to eat candied haws!"

"Look at you kid, what are you talking about." The proprietress scolded, knelt down and tied the boy's slightly messy hair again, and stuffed two copper coins into his palm, "Go now."

"Oh! Eat candied haws!" the boy cheered and left.

Every scene fell into Liu Yuan's eyes.

He knew that she had a diligent and honest husband, and a lively and lovely son, but that time when he read her life book, he didn't read it completely.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Your son...what's his name?"

The landlady answered with a smile while cleaning up the chopping board, "That bastard is called Changsheng."

Liu Yuan paused.

Hearing the sudden silence behind her, the proprietress turned her head and met Shang Liuyuan's eyes.This young man in black was fair-skinned and handsome, and had a pair of dark eyes, which made it hard to see at a glance.At this moment, those dark eyes like ink pools looked at her for a moment, she was in a trance, and felt an inexplicable sense of sadness in her heart.

The inexplicable sadness came suddenly and went away quickly, almost disappearing in an instant, just like an illusion.The proprietress woke up and asked, "Guest officer, what's the matter?"

"Changsheng." Liu Yuan repeated, and asked softly, "Why is it called Changsheng?"

"I thought about the baby before it was born," said the proprietress. "It doesn't have any special meaning, but I just thought it should be called this name, so I called it."

Liu Yuan was silent, and said, "Changsheng, Yu Yiyi has a smooth and long life." He bent his lips, and his voice was low and gentle, "It's a very good name."

The proprietress was very happy to hear that, and walked back with the chopping board, "I also think that this name is very destined for me."

When the proprietress opened the curtain again and came out, she found that the young man had already left.She took a closer look, and there was a huge silver ingot and a bowl of untouched wontons on the table.

When Liu Yuan was still Xu Changsheng, his parents, sisters, and husband taught him to treat others with kindness, to understand the difficulties in the world, to act openly, to be open-minded, and not to ask for anything in return, but to be worthy of one's heart and honor. world.

And he did.

In the end, the whole family died tragically.

When he was tied to the rack, every time the knife fell on his body, he was thinking why.

Why did the Xu family live a good life, but ended up like this.

Is it just because the law of heaven is ruthless and fate plays tricks?

Later, when he went to the underworld, he realized that fate was playing tricks on him, and those who played tricks on him were obviously a group of gods watching the theater in the sky.

Shit fairy.All of them pretend to be noble and compassionate, but they are actually selfish and hypocritical, lonely and despicable, arrogant and stupid, cold-blooded and cruel, shameless and extremely disgusting.

So he jumped into the soul refining pool.

The Soul Refining Pond is said to be inexhaustible by the people of the world. No one can get out of it for tens of thousands of years, but he did it.

He has a heart-wrenching hatred, an unshakable hatred.

He swore to himself that he would make those people pay the price.

They must pay for it.

Over the cave of the ghost king of the underworld, a red glow soared into the sky, and the bright moon above the sky turned dark red in an instant, exuding a thick and gloomy blood.The Bana flowers, which were only born on the banks of the Wangchuan River, swayed rustlingly, as if they were somehow induced, they spread and grew wildly, and bloomed in large swathes of gorgeous and unknown blood.

The four fields are dark, and all ghosts are silent.

【"Shuli, something is wrong."】

Shuli turned over and went to bed, looked out from the window, stared at the blood moon in the sky and asked: 【"What's wrong?"】【"This is... a blood sacrifice."】

Although she doesn't know what blood sacrifice is, Shuli's heart sank subconsciously, 【"What is blood sacrifice?"】【"Blood sacrifice is a secret method of the ghost clan. It uses the soul as a guide and flesh and blood as a sacrifice, and finally achieves an impossible goal "] Asa's tone was serious, 【"Only the ghost king can use it."】There was a "buzz" in Shuli's head, 【"You mean..."】No wonder.

No wonder Liu Yuan wanted to become the ghost king, no wonder Liu Yuan practiced in seclusion since becoming the ghost king, no wonder Liu Yuan prevented him from killing Qi Wuxian when he invited the moon tower.

He clearly knew the cause of all the tragedies in the Xu family in his previous life from the very beginning.

【"If it weren't for the fact that the energy change before the blood sacrifice was too great, I wouldn't have noticed it."】 Asa's voice lowered, 【"Sulli, you..."】【"So, he succeeded now?"】

【"Not yet, I can feel that he stopped when the blood sacrifice was about to complete. But as long as one more seal is formed, the sacrifice will be completed soon."】 Shuli was silent for a long time, and asked: 【"The price of the blood sacrifice What is it?"]【"The third ghost king in the underworld also practiced a blood sacrifice, which caused a three-year drought in the world, and starved to death everywhere."】Asa paused, 【"He died at the moment of the sacrifice, and there is no way to die. land."】
