After being forced to debut in metaphysics, I became popular

Yan Shixun had imagined the scene behind this stone gate. After all, he had seen the [-] Yin soldiers in Fengdu, and he knew how majestic and majestic this iron cavalry that dominated the battlefield was.

The corpses of 10 people are by no means a small number.

But, what if one more thing is added—this is a corpse that was transported from the battlefield and died with lingering resentment?

Until the last moment of their lives, none of the soldiers retreated half a step.After they died, they still returned to Fengdu, without a moment's rest.

This is an army stepping out of death and blood, entwined with sharp killing intent, no one dares to offend.

In this way, the soldiers who returned as heroic souls after death, even their bones carried the evil spirit that could frighten the ghosts.

When the Shimen was slowly pushed open, Yan Shixun could feel that in an instant, the Shimen, which originally weighed a thousand catties, suddenly became lighter, allowing him to push it open without any effort.

Yan Shixun was taken aback for a moment, then thought of something, and immediately looked sideways.

In the darkness, the figure wrapped in green light and covered in iron armor was also exerting force at the same time as Yan Shixun pushed the door.

Not just a figure.

Yan Shixun saw that the souls of the soldiers had already stood beside him, advancing and retreating with him.

In the cave behind him, Chuochuo's ghosts were densely packed, as if he was the general of the army at this time, and no matter what decision he made, the soldiers would follow his orders faithfully.

When Yan Shixun glanced over, the soldiers smiled and nodded to him one by one, mouthing silently, expressing their respect and support to him.

They said, don't worry about anything external, as long as it is your decision, the Lord of Fengdu will agree with it.

They said, for us, you are also the main general in charge of Fengdu. We trust you and will find a way to the future and victory for us.

They said, please believe in yourself, you are the only evil ghost in this world, you are the existence that even the Dao puts hope and vitality on, the choice you make is the right one.

They said, don't worry, no matter what choice you make, the consequences...we will fight with you, even if the sky falls, we will support it together.

Yan Shixun's gaze passed over the soldiers one by one, and after seeing their encouragement and comfort, he couldn't help but be moved.

This gave him the illusion that Fengdu could be his home, that he could advance and retreat together, rise and fall together.

Yan Shixun smiled lightly.

Amidst the rumbling sound of the stone gate opening, he also greeted the soldiers, expressing that he had received their wishes.

But even though he had made psychological preparations, when Yan Shixun looked up into the stone gate, he was still shocked.

The murderous intent coming towards his face was sharp and powerful, like a ferocious beast that had been imprisoned for thousands of years to accumulate strength. The moment the cage was opened, it roared and roared, wanting to rush out of the cage and show its fangs to anyone who dared to challenge the majesty.

Even the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth are not afraid at all.

This powerful aura made Yan Shixun gather his mind on the spot, and then looked again into the darkness behind the stone gate.He raised the light ball in his hand, and with the help of these lights, illuminated the appearance in the dark.

——In the cave behind the stone gate, skeletons are neatly placed on the ground, extending into the dark depths that cannot be illuminated.

It is not that Yan Shixun has never seen dead bodies and dry bones.

However, such a huge number of bones still shocked Yan Shixun on the spot, and he was speechless for a while.

This is... a full 10 people.

Hundreds of thousands of lives that were once fresh and vigorous died on the battlefield and hid in the cave to sleep until the first thousand years, when he opened the stone gate with his own hands, allowing the past of the soldiers to reappear.

The shock brought by the huge death comes from the resonance of life in the soul.

After a long time, Yan Shixun finally came back to his senses, and stayed silent for a long while before he opened his long legs again and stepped lightly into the space behind the stone gate.

His steps were very light, not wanting to disturb the peaceful sleep of the soldiers.

In the abandoned Yizhuang outside the cave, those headless corpses were still covered by thin coffins, and they did not end up on the ground.

However, in the cave, the corpses of these soldiers were placed on the ground without even a piece of sackcloth.

But judging from the fact that the bones were arranged as neatly as possible, and even the remaining armor on his body was carefully taken care of, Yan Shixun knew that this did not mean that the villagers back then were not dedicated.

Thousands of years ago, in order to allow the soldiers to be buried, the villagers tried their best to scrape together money and manpower, and risked being killed to bring back the corpses of the soldiers, but they really didn't have more money to buy one hundred thousand corpses. coffin.

It's not just a matter of money or craftsmen not being able to work on schedule, but also that new forces that have been eyeing them will discover the secrets they desperately want to hide.

And that's what the villagers never want to see.

In desperation, they could only place the bones of the soldiers here one by one with guilt, and in a short period of time, they tried their best to arrange everything in the mausoleum properly.

At dawn, the stone gate in the cave was closed tightly, and the villagers returned to the village as if nothing had happened, and continued to live, facing the inspection of new forces.

This secret was thus able to be concealed.

Holding the ball of light, Yan Shixun slowly squatted down in front of a corpse.

Although the soldiers have obsessions, they have no resentment.

After their death, their corpses had been turned into dry bones for a long time.Only the armor they wore when they died and the items they carried left, their respective identities can be vaguely identified.

The hollow eye sockets of the bones stared directly at Yan Shixun.

His armor has already rusted, and the sword that once slashed at the enemy has also decayed, but he still holds it tightly in his hand and refuses to let it go.

Even if they die, the instinct of going to battle to kill the enemy to protect the people and the city is still engraved in the souls of the soldiers.

One day in the army, one life in the army, don't slack off.

Even if there is only one skeleton left now, I still want to hold the sword tightly, get up again, and guard the world.

Yan Shixun quietly looked directly into those dark and hollow eye sockets, not a trace of fear in his heart, only respect.

He stretched out his hand and slowly landed on the palm of the soldier's sword.

The tentacle is the cold chill, the temperature of death.

He lowered his eyes and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Thank you for protecting the people of Ye, and returning to Fengdu to guard Yin and Yang. You have done too much for the world."

"Now, let me do something for you - to give you a gift, and the freedom to control your own destiny from now on."

"From now on, even the Dao of Heaven and Earth cannot control your destiny. You can make all the choices for yourself."

Yan Shixun smiled lightly, ghost energy surged crazily in his meridians, roared like sea waves and beat against the embankment, and finally gathered in his hands, forming a huge force.

Under such power, the corpse held by him seemed to feel something.

Among the ghosts of the soldiers, one raised his head and looked at Yan Shixun in astonishment.

At the same time, the corpse that had already turned into dry bones also turned its head slightly, looking at Yan Shixun.

Before the owner of the corpse figured out what was going on, he felt a majestic force rushing into his soul. His soul, which was originally strong enough as a Fengdu Yin soldier, was infused with new energy. strength.

But this power is not outward.

Rather, inward.

This is not the power to hurt or attack others, but falls in the general's soul, like a memory burning with flames, warming his cold body.

In front of the general's eyes, the scene of when he was still alive also appeared in a trance.

When he left home when he was young, his mother chased him out and hugged his crying tears. His younger brother and sister held him back and cried, saying that he would not eat in the future and begged him not to leave.

After joining the army, he nearly died on the battlefield. From the first recruit who was only afraid of fleeing, he became a centurion, a thousand commander step by step... He knelt down under the tent of the general, watched the general stretch out his hand, and made up his mind. In this life, I want to repay the grace of knowing, encountering and trusting the Lord with death, and I have no two intentions.

And those good memories, the yellow wheat waves in autumn, the golden warm sunshine, the laughter when you were shirtless in the fields with the people, and the hearty laughter when you received a bowl of sweet well water from the folks. .

Waiting for his return home, his wife, children and old mother were full of joy when they returned home, and they smiled knowingly when they walked on the street and watched the child run by on a bamboo horse.

He was still lamenting that being in the resident commanded by the chief general was like the peace and happiness of a peaceful and prosperous age.

But later, this happiness was finally taken away by Zhan Luan.

The unrepentant villagers, the cold wives and children with tears on their faces, the former bustling city collapsed in the raging fire, the blood on the battlefield penetrated three feet after three feet, and the resentment never dissipated.

What he saw before his death turned out to be like this...

He had completely forgotten that in the past that he had abandoned and forgotten, besides the pain and remorse, and the obsession that he was unwilling to be reconciled to the tragic scene of corpses strewn all over the ground, there were so many precious happy memories.

In the past when he was still alive, he also felt warm and laughed out loud in the sun.

It's a pity that, for thousands of years, he stripped this past from his soul, let it be discarded together with the corpse, and stayed on the boundary of yin and yang day and night, forgetting those memories.

And now, he finally, finally...

Think again.

A line of tears slowly slid down the general's face.

The general had always been unsmiling, but a smile finally appeared on his majestic face.The sharp eyebrows and eyes that he tightly frowned slowly softened, and he laughed before he even noticed his own tears.

At this moment, with the help of Yan Shixun's help, the general finally remembered the past that he had abandoned, and for the first time opened his arms, willing to accept the former self.

The general once died without resting his eyes, and fell on the battlefield covered in blood and wounds. He had a long sword stuck in his chest, but his eyes were fixed on the sky, and his chest was full of anger and unwillingness.

If, if you give him food and grass, give him reinforcements... No, if there is another battle, one hundred thousand against one hundred thousand, he will definitely, absolutely not lose, and will not embarrass the general.

He destroyed the legend that Yedi had never been defeated, and he also ended up in a tragic end where the city was destroyed. He even failed to save the lives of the people in the city behind him.

Failed so utterly.

It was the pain that the general didn't want to recall. For thousands of years, he has been blaming himself for the failure of the year, and he insisted that it was his own mistake. If he could work harder, and have a ration and a soldier, would the ending be different? different?

Therefore, when the general stood up from the battlefield, pointed his broken sword straight at the sky, and questioned him angrily, the general also followed the general, and his soul refused to follow Hades to the underworld to reincarnate, but stood silently behind the general, and led a hundred thousand soldiers with him. , rushed towards Fengdu.

A new Fengdu rises from the ground. The soldiers are not only following the leader and loyal to Fengdu, but also to make up for the regrets and guilt of the past. All along, they have never dared to relax and guard the world silently in the dark.

But none of their soldiers had the courage to look back at the battlefield in Yedi.

including their remains.

This is their only cowardice under their strength and bravery.

The corpses of one hundred thousand soldiers have been hidden in the burial ground, and the past and the future have been separated.

But now, under Yan Shixun's strong but gentle power, the general recalled everything again.

'Maybe, I should have been earlier, more courageous, and faced my past. '

The soul of the general opened his arms with a smile, looked at Yan Shixun softly in his eyes, and nodded to this being who was regarded by all the soldiers as a new being in control of Fengdu: "Thank you, Mr. Yan. '

"Even in the painful past that I dare not face, it is still me, and it is a part of my experience that I cannot let go..."

The general smiled and slowly closed his eyes.

The green light spots, like fireflies, rose around him and surrounded him.

The souls of the rest of the soldiers all looked at the general in astonishment, unable to realize what happened for a moment.

But Yan Shixun looked at the general with a smile, and said warmly: "I borrowed a sword from you on the battlefield of Old Fengdu, I'm sorry, that sword was stuck in the heart of Old Fengdu, and I couldn't bring it back. "

"So now, I'll give you back a new sword. This sword is called - Self."

"The past, the present, and the future converge. You can control your own destiny, do whatever you want, and nothing will stop you. The vast world is omnipresent. Under the avenue, you are not Puppets or pawns, you can protect what you want to protect by yourself, and guard your way."

"This is also the freedom possessed by Dao."

The moment Yan Shixun's voice fell, the general's corpse neatly placed on the ground quickly turned into a handful of powder, and automatically drifted away in the absence of wind, drifting towards the general's soul like a fluorescent light, and fused with him.

The next moment, the dead bones next to the general's corpse were also turned into powder, and then the next one, and the next one...

Dots of fluorescent light slowly rise in the darkness, setting off the cold and dark cave like a fairyland, which is too beautiful to behold.

In the dark green light, it was like countless fireflies flying around the soldiers.

The corpses all over the ground turned into dust and dissipated, but the soldiers laughed slowly, their eyes bright, as if seeing the most precious and happy memory for them.

The guilt and self-blame in the past have all been transformed into the motivation to continue to guard the world, so that the soldiers no longer resist their past, and choose to accept the part of themselves they were in life.

The innocent smiles filled the faces of the soldiers, and infected Yan Shixun who had been watching the scene.

He also laughed softly, his brows and eyes soft.

Before pushing open the stone gate, Yan Shixun had been hesitating and struggling, wondering if Ye Li could survive the trial, whether the soldiers in Fengdu would resent him because of this, and the world in the future, I don't know if it will change. Get better, or get worse.

It is always difficult to make a choice. People are instinctively envious of the path they have not taken, but they cannot bear the consequences of their choices, which will even drive them crazy.

The choice Yan Shixun has to make not only involves himself, but also the burden of the whole world.

If his choice brought disaster, Yan Shixun himself didn't know how to forgive himself.

But now, looking at the smiles on the faces of the soldiers, he began to feel that he seemed to have made the right choice.

— At least for the time being, it is correct.

Amidst the laughter of the soldiers, Yan Shixun subconsciously looked around, wanting to share his feelings with Ye Li, but in vain.

Around him, there was only cold air.

Yan Shixun froze for a moment, feeling a little lonely for no reason.

The general noticed Yan Shixun's loss, he smiled and took two steps forward, the armor on his body collided with metal and made a crisp sound.

'Are you looking for the Lord of Fengdu, your lover? '

The general smiled, and raised his finger to point to the darkness behind Yan Shixun: "Please keep walking in, don't look back, don't stop."The corpse of the Lord of Fengdu is waiting for you to find him in the deepest part. '

'Please believe me, no matter what kind of decision you make and what kind of future it will bring, the Lord will only accept it with pleasure.Because that is the treasure you gave him, and for the Lord of Fengdu who is in power and powerful in the world, nothing is more precious than you. '

The general bowed to Yan Shixun.

Behind him, the soldiers surrounded by the radiance also solemnly bowed in Yan Shixun's direction to pay respect.

The smile on Yan Shixun's lips froze.

He froze for a moment, then turned around in the direction pointed by the general, and looked into the darkness far behind him.

It is a darkness that no light can shine through, and it hides the most important secrets between heaven and earth, a past that ghosts and gods refuse to accept.

As long as you step in and find the bones of ghosts and gods, you will have a chance to make Ye Li a great way...

Yan Shixun pursed his lips, still made up his mind, and nodded his thanks to the general.

Then he turned around, took a deep breath, and walked slowly into the darkness.

The decision has already been made, hasn't it?There is no need to hesitate anymore.

Ye Li once asked him if he trusted him, and at that time, the answer he gave was yes.

At that time, Yan Shixun may not have known Ye Li's true identity, but he believed that the person who would be moved by the cries of the wronged soul, the person who would accompany him through the mountains of knives and seas of fire and the hell of ghosts, would not be the one who stabbed him in the back that one.

And the facts also proved that Yan Shixun's guess was right.

He gave a trust, but what he reaped was an incomparably precious love.

Since he was able to trust Ye Li at that time, now that he has confirmed his favorite, he should have more trust in Ye Li, believing that Ye Li can pass the test smoothly, accept the past of the corpse, and become the Dao.

It was only now that Yan Shixun finally understood the mentality and suffering of those who are swayed by emotions.

It was an experience and a struggle that he never had before, but now, he understands.

And even if it is suffering, there is a sense of tenderness and happiness like trickling spring water.

Yan Shixun raised his hand and pressed his beating heart, confirming that his love for Ye Li was probably deeper than he thought.

He is a slow-witted person, but he has never been a coward who retreats.

When his heart has been revealed before his eyes, the only thing he can do is to accept it frankly and coexist with this love.

Master, if you were still alive, seeing me like this, I don't know what you would say.

I used to think that I would always fight on the front line between humans and ghosts, until one day I would die at the mouth of a ghost, or like you, I would die for the sake of heaven and earth.

Or, if I'm luckier, I'll live until I'm old, and after a hundred years, I'll be a handful of dead bones, and I'll be alone.

I don't need anyone by my side, I am enough to do anything and get anywhere by myself.

But now I know that's not the case.

Someone is concerned, and someone is waiting for me.There is always a person, a lamp, waiting for me to go home...

Master, please don't worry about me anymore.

I already have someone to accompany me, I will not be alone anymore.

Regardless of life or death, I have people to go all the way, reaching the blue sky.

No matter what awaits us ahead... I am willing to live and die together with Ye Li.

Yan Shixun smiled, his brows were soft but firm, and he stepped into the darkness without any hesitation.

The cave gradually engulfed his figure and disappeared from the sight of the soldiers.

In the empty mausoleum, silence was restored.

For a long time, some soldiers hesitated to ask the general: "The Lord is not here, let the lady enter the depths of the mausoleum, if the Lord fails the trial..."

The general looked at the direction where Yan Shixun disappeared with a smile, and laughed softly: "The general is good at everything, but he always cares too much about Madam's feelings, and he doesn't want to make Madam feel uncomfortable - of course, this is a good thing." '

'The only problem is that because the Lord General cares too much about his wife, he is afraid that she will be hurt in the slightest, so the lady is always not enlightened and unable to face up to her feelings. '

The general shrugged his shoulders, and said in an innocent tone, "As a subordinate, apart from being loyal, of course you also care about the lifelong affairs of the chief general."The wife who the Lord can't catch up with can only be helped by us. '

The soldier opened his mouth in bewilderment, feeling that the problem of feelings is really profound, and this is not something that a person who has never had feelings until his death can figure out.

The general glanced at the soldier with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, the Lord will not blame us." '

'How can such a thing as chasing your wife be called disobedience?This is called bowing down. '

The general is eloquent and confident.

The soldiers next to him also nodded.

'Yes, if you don't help the general, you are afraid that your wife will be robbed by another one. '

'I looked impatient, so can't I just grab it and go to the bridal chamber?When I was a bandit, the whole mountain did it like this.Although he was recruited by the lord...but if the lord needs it, we are obliged to grab Mrs. Yazhai back for Fengdu! '

'...Believe it or not, you will be killed by the general before you rob.What Mrs. Yazhai?Times have long since changed! '

'I think the way Hades looks at his wife is also very dangerous. It seems that he will help the general guard against Hades in the future. '

'Hey, I joined the army 1000 years ago in order to have enough to eat. At that time, no one told me that I had to help the general chase his wife. '

'However, Mr. Yan is indeed worth it.The master has good eyesight, he is worthy of being the master! '

The ghost language was low and reverberating, reverberating in the cave.

After Yan Shixun got the guidance of the general, he walked firmly into the depths of the darkness.

He soon realized that this was indeed the right path.

The further you go in, the thinner the air, the heavier the oncoming pressure, almost suffocating.

The strong ghost aura permeates every inch of the air, hovering between the stone walls and caves, silently refusing anyone to disturb the sleep of ghosts and gods.

Yan Shixun couldn't help feeling a bit suffocated, and the vision in front of him gradually became blurred.

But his footsteps did not yaw or back down, and he was always approaching the place where Ye Li's bones were buried.

Although the villagers did not dare to alarm outsiders, they were afraid that their excessive actions would attract attention, reveal their secrets, and break the peace of the soldiers.

But they still took out all their belongings within their ability, and even the coffin they had prepared for the elderly was urgently taken out for emergency.

While walking, Yan Shixun walked through the empty cave where the bones of hundreds of thousands of soldiers were placed before, and saw a few sporadic coffins, and quickly combined with the murals he saw before, he guessed the truth thousands of years ago .

Those coffins were obviously not prepared for military generals. Not only were the wood and styles different, Yan Shixun also saw cranes, auspicious clouds and big birthday characters on the coffins. Obviously, he had the habit of preparing coffins for the elderly in advance, and he was burying soldiers. At that time, they were urgently requisitioned.

The villagers tried their best, but the number of corpses was too large.

From every detail, Yan Shixun could clearly see how tall and majestic the image of Ye Li was in the hearts of the people back then.

There was a smile on his lips, and his eyes were soft.Even though the thin air made his lungs hurt like an explosion due to lack of oxygen, he didn't care.

All he could think about was Yeli.

Fortunately, in this square inch of darkness, he doesn't need to worry about the world and the common people. What he cares about and worries about, only needs Ye Li to be enough.

Even though it was dangerous, this was a rare world where he and Ye Li were alone.

Every step he took was one step closer to Ye Li.

—He is walking through death, step by step towards his lover.

This kind of cognition made Yan Shixun's heart beat fast.

I don't know if it was a side effect of lack of oxygen, but he actually felt his cheeks and ears start to heat up.

If someone could see Yan Shixun in the dark, he would be surprised that the irritable and indifferent exorcist would have such a bright red face.

Yan Shixun's already handsome face was dyed a little pink, even the end of his eyes was a little red, and the eyes were full of sparkles, so beautiful that he couldn't help himself.

Unfortunately, no one saw this scene.

Even Ye Li.

Yan Shixun's footsteps gradually slowed down, and the resistance in front of him became stronger and stronger, as if Mount Tai was standing in front of him.Every step he took seemed to be pushing Mount Tai forward.

With such a weight, Yan Shixun couldn't help exhausting his physical strength rapidly and became strenuous.

But he knew very well in his heart that he couldn't stop.

Can't stop at one step.

This is from the majesty of the ghosts and gods, and the authority held by the ghosts and gods. In the protection of the common people, no one is allowed to get close to the bones of the ghosts and gods, so as to cause chaos in the world.

The only possibility for Yan Shixun to get close to Ye Li's bones in the burial ground is to rely on enough firm willpower, gritted his teeth and let the ghosts and gods and the world see clearly his determination and magnanimity.

He had no selfish intentions, and he would enter the burial ground, not because he wanted to disturb the peace of the world.

Rather, openness is only for all creatures.

——If even he himself is shaken, who can help him and prove his determination?

No matter how slow he walked, the Martin boots couldn't even be lifted from the ground, and he moved inch by inch towards Yeli, and he must never stop or shrink back.

Yan Shixun clenched his teeth, his mouth was filled with the taste of blood, but his eyes became firmer and sharper, like a sharp blade capable of cutting through the darkness and all resistance.

Whoosh, whoosh...

The heavy breathing brought about a throat that was quickly worn out by his own breathing.

The pain in the lungs was exploding, and even the internal organs in the abdominal cavity were squeezed and painful.

Yan Shixun's throat was full of foamy blood, and his breath was filled with the smell of his own blood.The muscles all over his body were shaking physiologically under the severe pain, and the only thing that could support him was his spirit that refused to fall, and his strong will that could overturn the world.

Tiandi lowered his eyes and asked, why did he come here, did he ever think about the consequences of his choice.

All creatures were laughing and crying, and scenes of the past slipped past Yan Shixun's eyes.

Xi Shuang's bright eyes with tears in her smile, Jiang Yanran finally smiled brightly again, Lin Ting sighed and looked back at the land where she used to stick to her career...

All the ghosts who refuse to leave with resentment, all the souls who want justice after death.

There are also those ordinary people who are laughing and living happily, their bustling ordinary daily life, the ordinary happiness of three meals a day...

The noisy voices and chaotic scenes all passed through Yan Shixun's mind, and finally mixed together, making him unable to tell who was who for a while.

Those people who were grateful to him crying and bowing to thank him gradually forgot their names and their voices and smiles during his whereabouts.

He couldn't even tell whether those were his own fantasies or what he had really experienced.

But the only thing that Yan Shixun is firm about is still only one thing, and that is——

Never back down!

The weight of this suppression is the weight of all living beings in the entire world, and those beings are exactly the objects he wants to protect.

If he flinches, hesitates, then he has failed to live up to the weight he has carried on his shoulders.

Yan Shixun knew very well that after Li Chengyun's death, he had to be alone, no matter how difficult it was, he had to stand in front of everyone and carry it alone.

Even if the sky is falling, he will hold on.

no, stop...

Cold sweat trickled down Yan Shixun's forehead and fell into his eyes, causing a sharp pain.

Under the pressure of severe pain and suffocation, Yan Shixun had already begun to lose sight of the things in front of him, only the shaking darkness and light flickering in his vision.

Even the movement of walking on his feet has begun to become mechanical, and only the willpower is left to support this body that has reached its limit, preventing him from falling down.

Ye, Li...

And in a trance, Yan Shixun seemed to see the figure that he cared about, standing not far from him, smiling at him with open arms.

As if waiting for him to throw himself into his arms.

Yan Shixun began to wonder if he had begun to hallucinate under exhaustion.

He raised his arms with difficulty, rubbed his eyes, and tried to regain his vision.

When he looked up again, he realized that Ye Li's figure was indeed his hallucination.

But the other is not.

A pure black coffin was placed on a stone platform not far from him.

The heavy coffin was nailed to death, and was respectfully placed in the deepest part of the cave with a solemn gesture, not wanting anyone to find out.

Yan Shixun hadn't stepped forward to check, but he had already sensed from the kind instinct in his soul that this was the coffin where Ye Li's body was placed.

at last……

The slender eyelashes trembled, and a drop of sweat fell.

Yan Shixun smiled lightly.

He gritted his teeth, and desperately moved his legs that were so sore that he lost his sense of existence, so that he could speed up and walk towards the coffin.

His lover was there waiting for him.

Yan Shixun's slender palm landed on the coffin.

At that moment, a force with a slightly cool breath rushed from the coffin to Yan Shixun, quickly filling his already empty meridians, replacing the power he had exhausted before, and continuing to support his body.

Yan Shixun could feel that his body, which had just been exhausted to severe pain, was quickly soothed. The slightly cool breath made him feel like he had walked into an air-conditioned room on a hot summer day, instantly giving him a sense of comfort. Feeling, even the furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

The familiar aura let Yan Shixun know that Ye Li was giving him power.

This person... Even if it's just a skeleton in a coffin, is he so careful?

Yan Shixun couldn't help being moved, and chuckled, with an unconcealable love in his eyes.

That power seemed to flow not only in his meridians, but also in his heart.

He supported the coffin to rest for a while, then straightened his expression immediately, stood up straight and looked at the coffin carefully.

Yan Shixun's slender fingers nimbly formed seals, and immediately, the spikes at the four corners of the coffin automatically flew up and fell to the ground.

The coffin lid loosened.

He put his hands on the coffin lid, and after taking a deep breath to get ready, his eyes instantly became sharp, and with a sudden force, the heavy coffin lid was slowly pushed away.

"Squeak, quack..."

The coffin, which had not been opened for thousands of years, was slowly opened in front of Yan Shixun.

Ye Li's bones were also slowly revealed in front of Yan Shixun's eyes.

His eyes slowly opened wide.

What was lying in the coffin was not a bunch of dead bones as he had imagined, but a handsome and resolute general. Even though thousands of years had passed, he was still not half decayed.

Even the iron armor on the general's body was still cold and sharp.

It seems that he will open his eyes every moment, sit up from the coffin again, and go to the battlefield again to fight for the people and the world.

Just when Yan Shixun was holding the coffin in a daze, a cool breath slowly approached him from behind.

Strong arms wrapped around Yan Shixun's thin waist, his strong chest bumped against Yan Shixun's back, and a soft laugh sounded softly.

"Shi Xun."

He tightened his arms and hugged his lover tightly.
