The bright moon sits on the ground

Huang Sheng recited the four words "Buried in the Sea of ​​Fire" again and again, until Fang Qisheng condescended to pick up the golden whip he had dropped on the ground and put it in his hand again, Huang Sheng seemed to be taken Like an irritated cat, all senses exploded.

He began to regret why he didn't fight back just now. Is it because Fang Qisheng moved too fast? He didn't react, or was it because those eyes were too similar to hunting beasts, reminding him of Chang Jinyu? Through a layer of memory The tide,? But still cold.

He has no way to answer,? There is nowhere to look for answers.

"Fang Qisheng." Huang Sheng gritted his teeth and forced out a sentence full of anger, "What do you mean by that?"

According to the usual practice, Fang Qisheng would definitely sneer and sneer, and he must make the other party half dead to be comfortable.

But Fang Qisheng just glanced at Huang Sheng indifferently, and moved his eyes to a shadow. In the flickering candlelight, in the sticky smoke like a cobweb, what did his eyes catch accurately? He gave the order in the dark.

"Do it," he said.

Tang Zhuo once again strongly realized that it was not his illusion.

Fang Qisheng's gaze was indeed on him, even the order was given to him.

Tang Zhuo had never felt such a keen, almost intuitive insight, and a sense of threat that came to his face.

Chang Jinyu is able to hide his dangers very well, he always likes to laugh, and can easily mingle with his subordinates,? He looks lazy and unserious, but when it comes to seriousness, he will show a look of indifference To the extreme expression.

Fang Qisheng in the past, although he didn't smile in front of everyone, he was not an unreasonable person. Although his methods were clean and neat, he was not as vicious as Chang Jinyu, whether it was for the Demon Sect or the Righteous Way , are not dangerous.

At this moment, Fang Qisheng was full of danger, like underground magma, and even the residual heat could burn people.

The icy lake in those eyes was calm, as if nothing unexpected could escape his control.

Tang Zhuo didn't hesitate any longer. As the master of Xuanwu Sect, he obeyed the orders given by the leader of the Demon Cult, that's all.All the other things are not what he should delve into. Whether it is stupid loyalty or blind obedience, this is the consistent style of Xuanwumen.

The middle-aged man fell to the ground without any precautions. Tang Zhuo lowered his wrist to catch the burning incense stick in his hand.

The hot incense ash landed on the back of his hand, leaving a dark mark, but his wrist was steady, and he didn't throw the stick of incense out because of a subconscious reaction. The incense ash gradually became cold and slid down his wrist Go down, burst in the air, drift away.

Tang Zhuo carefully guarded the faint flame, raised his eyes slightly, and happened to meet Fang Qisheng's gaze.

It was just a momentary event, but it still left a great shock in his heart.

In fact, there are a lot of candles here, and the incense can be lit again when it is extinguished, but Fang Qisheng just wants to see if he can keep the spark.

Fang Qisheng not only wanted to test Huang Sheng's authenticity, but also to test whether he, the master of the Xuanwu Sect, was loyal.

So, what exactly happened that made Fang Qisheng so distrustful of everything around him that he insisted on testing it himself?

Don't say it's Huang Sheng, Tang Zhuo is rarely confused, but he can't say why.

The people in the center of the mystery seemed to be ignorant of their doubts. After repeated probing, Fang Qisheng finally confirmed that Huang Sheng was real. illusion.

He collected the corpse for Huang Sheng with his own hands, and saw that his body was scorched black, and the residue would rustle off when he touched it, his nostrils were full of that greasy, choking smell, and he opened the clothes that could hardly be seen to be cloth, The remaining skin was full of knife marks, obviously he died from a fatal wound, and then, the raging fire regarded his torso as the most suitable wick, and his flesh and blood as lamp oil...

The whole Huang's house was destroyed in the flames and collapsed, leaving only a pile of coke, whether it was a corpse or a display.

The field of vision is filled with black and gray, and other colors seem to be extravagant, things that should not appear here.

Fang Qisheng knew that the fire was set by Huang Sheng's parents. In order to wash away all the sins and make Zhengdao forgive their most beloved young son, he begged and prayed, and knelt down on Huang Sheng, asking him to admit that the Demon Cult was Treacherous people.

Chang Jinyu's original methods were indeed too reckless. He was only thinking about how to abduct this gifted child back to the Devil's Cult. He even coaxed and deceived him by saying where he came from. Huang Sheng's parents also believed it.

Later, Huang Sheng gradually realized that he had entered the den of dragons and tigers. After staying in the devil's religion for a long time, he felt that the devil's religion was not as bad as the rumors said, but it was too late, he had long since lost the ability to confess to his parents Best time for the truth.

Although Huang Sheng was a rebellious person, he couldn't listen to people's words well, and his tone of voice seemed like a firecracker was lit.

But in his life, he hated others to talk about his family members, so he put on the mask of the ringed leopard, hid his identity, and waited quietly and eagerly, waiting for the one who would tell all his treacherous behaviors and let him The time when his parents who loved him the most were completely disappointed—then he waited until, it wasn't what he said, it was the righteous way that forced him to the Huang Mansion, and loudly reprimanded him in front of everyone.

Then the flames burned, Huang Sheng's knees fell to the ground, and the clang of the knife clanged, but he couldn't turn around to escape.

Fang Qisheng covered Huang Sheng's body with a white cloth, and gently tucked the corners, thinking, maybe it was wrong from the beginning.

Everyone in the Devil's Cult is a lunatic without fear of life and death, he is like this, and Huang Sheng is even more like this.

He didn't know if Huang Sheng thought of Chang Jinyu, who had disappeared without a trace, at the last moment of his death.

But Fang Qisheng lowered his gaze and recalled the knife marks on Huang Sheng's body. Because the blade was too long, the cutting edge was very deep. From right to left, the knife was almost fatal, like a natural executioner, only that Things that humans can do.

He was so familiar with that person, just looking at the knife wound, he could imagine the scene at that time.

Withdrawing the knife, turning the wrist, dropping the knife, withdrawing the hand, the blade hangs obliquely, splashing all the blood on the ground before putting the knife back into its sheath.

Did he have a momentary feeling of compassion at the moment of doing it?Fang Qisheng sneered in his heart, there won't be any.

If the torrent of fate wants to smash everyone to pieces, then he doesn't mind adding fuel to the flames.

"Hero Wen." Fang Qisheng straightened up, and said to the person hiding in the shadows in the dark alley not far behind him, "Although the fire came fiercely and destroyed all the evidence, it still left clues that can be investigated further. You Isn't it very clear too?"

In the middle of the night, everything was quiet and lifeless, except for the sound of moths to the flame, and the crackling of the lamp in his hand.

Fang Qisheng was not angry because of Wen Zhanxing's silence, on the contrary, he knew that Wen Zhanxing had listened to it, the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins, and it is the most beneficial for these two people to fight for both losses. He thought this way, seemingly unintentionally Said——

"In this imperial city, who uses chopping, horses, and knives as weapons, and who can have such unparalleled sword skills."

"Wen Zhanxing, if you still have doubts about what I said, you might as well go and see for yourself. There is some truth in what I said."

To this day, Fang Qisheng still remembers everything that happened that night clearly.

However, in the blink of an eye, Huang Sheng was standing in front of him alive. On that obviously more immature face, the expression of anger was particularly vivid. He was chattering, phrasing strongly, and posing at any time like before. The expression others owe him.

Only Huang Sheng was alone, he might still be a little suspicious, but Xuan Wu was there, and he was real.

After excluding the irrelevant people, Fang Qisheng turned his attention to Huang Sheng again.

He was still continuing his accusation. Fang Qisheng raised his hand and tapped his forehead gently. Huang Sheng froze for a moment, looking at Fang Qisheng with a blank face. Before he recovered, his lips moved slightly , It seems to want to scold him if he is sick.

"Have you not told your parents about the Devil's Cult yet?" he asked.

Huang Sheng didn't expect Fang Qisheng to say such words suddenly. To be honest, they have never mentioned family matters to each other, let alone whether their relationship is good or not. It is impossible for a person like Fang Qisheng who has no father and mother to mention it. The word "parent".

However, as soon as he heard words related to his family, his body tensed up, and he looked at Fang Qisheng vigilantly.

"The longer it takes, the harder it is to say it. I suggest you tell them earlier to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings in the future."

Fang Qisheng still didn't explain the meaning of his words to Huang Sheng. He left the words here and didn't try to persuade him. He just waited for Huang Sheng to think for himself. It would be better if he could figure it out. , I am afraid there is nothing you can do.

Then, he turned around, brushed away the curling smoke, and walked towards the tall god statue.

Although he had only glanced at it before, Fang Qisheng quickly realized that it was Nie Qiu's appearance.

Why Huang Sheng came back to life, whether he has returned to the past, why he is here instead of where he should be in his memory, these questions may all be able to get clues from this statue, and then get the answer.

The closer he got, the more certain Fang Qisheng could be sure that the appearance of the statue was exactly the same as that of Nie Qiu, without any difference.

He stepped onto the altar, and with utter irreverence, walked past the clusters of flowers and climbed up the rich stone pillow.

This statue is too huge, occupying the entire cellar, and the blooming flower cluster is enough to cover the figure of a grown man—Fang Qisheng easily climbed up, walked around the statue, and stood In the pitch-black flames, I looked up.

From the front to the back, it is the scene where the immortal king saves all living beings and shows mercy to the world, and from the back to the front, it is a scene like purgatory.

The entire back of the statue was dyed in pitch black. The entangled flames had not touched him, but had penetrated his back, piercing through his chest cavity and into his heart and lungs. If you look closely, you can still see the flames Strange beasts are carved on the stone carvings.

Behind the antler mask, there are faintly outlined six characters in gold, and its name is "Town Kunlun, Guard Yulou".

Huang Sheng under the altar shouted: "Fang Qisheng, what are you doing! This place is like a moat, and you can't get out unless the locals lead the way! If you destroy the statue and make them resent you, you will never get out in this life !"

He finally couldn't hold it back, and said what he had been holding back for a long time: "When I first saw this statue, I was also shocked by its appearance, but I just let you judge for yourself, and I don't want you to go from there. Break up with Nie Qiu, why do you..."

Why are you so crazy, like a different person, if you say it lightly, it is evil, and if you say it more, it is dementia.

Before Huang Sheng finished speaking, he noticed that Fang Qisheng's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he felt that he was being tested again. He felt uncomfortable. Just as he was about to ask you what's the matter, Fang Qisheng opened his mouth slowly, with a look on his face darkly, asked him.

"You said, what do you mean by 'break with Nie Qiu'? Do I have a good relationship with him?"

Huang Sheng and Tang Zhuo looked at each other, they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Realizing that they were silent, Fang Qisheng came out from behind the statue, looked down at the two men, and glanced at Huang Sheng, maybe because he felt that he was not reliable, he finally looked at Tang Zhuo and said, "Xuanwu ,Give me an explanation."

"The leader and the right protector." Noticing that Fang Qisheng's expression changed slightly when he heard the word "right protector", Tang Zhuo paused for a while, reconsidered his words, and said, "The two have a deep relationship and are very human. Comparable."

Huang Sheng clicked his tongue, feeling that he was too tactful, took a step forward, and took the initiative to steal the conversation, "You don't think you are still worried about my sentence 'I didn't expect someone to like you'? I know you two He did everything he should and shouldn’t do.”

He finished speaking in one breath without panting, and cursed bitterly: "So you think it's cool for me to say it myself?"

After finally saying it, Huang Sheng subconsciously raised his eyes to see Fang Qisheng's expression, only to find that his face was not the triumphant expression he imagined, but the kind of thoughtful, contemplative expression that seemed to be hiding behind Fang Qisheng's expression. The cunning hunter of shadows.

From this moment on, Fang Qisheng finally knew that not only time went back, but all things were developing in another direction without his knowing, and he was not going to turn back at all, deceiving everyone, even himself past.

He thought that the most urgent task is not to find the root of all changes, but to get familiar with this place, more precisely...

Is familiar with this "story".

The author has something to say: Regarding the plot of Huang Sheng's last life, Nie Qiu's perspective has been written in chapters 3, 22 and 24 respectively.
