When the devil

Wei Ling stood outside the cell without approaching. He looked at the person in the cell for a long time, but in the end he didn't even call out "foster father".

He Yu doesn't seem to be alive, nor does he seem to be dead. He still has some aura that can't be broken, and he is dragged and trapped in the world.The iron handcuffs left black and purple scars on his wrists, but those wounds were carefully treated, leaving scars and scars.The more Wei Ling watched, the more uncomfortable he felt, and his heart felt cold, so he turned to ask Chen Xiao: "What's wrong with him?"

"I'm alive, I can't die." Chen Xiao's voice seemed to be frozen: "When I found him, he looked like a ghost."

Wei Ling couldn't understand, she tilted her head slightly, and asked again: "What do you mean by finding him...?"

Chen Xiao let out a disdainful snort from his nose, as if he was a little impatient with what he was going to say next: "It is said that your adoptive father hid a disease that survived the northern waters in the ruined temple at the foot of Liuli Mountain, and was released later. It was burned to ashes by a fire, it was a lie, He Yun is a pure-blooded descendant of Baifeng, Jinghuo has to call him ancestor."

It turned out that He Yu really had Bai Feng's blood on his body. Wei Ling had been his adoptive son for so many years. Although he had heard the rumors, He Yu didn't admit it, and Wei Ling didn't feel relieved at all.Now Chen Xiao took it for granted, but made Wei Ling ignorant.

All right.Wei Ling admits that during her time in Liulishan, she devoted herself to cultivation and had no time for other things. In the end, it was her own fault for being too ruthless.

Chen Xiao glanced at him, with an irrelevant and indifferent expression on his face: "After Jiuying died, your adoptive father sealed part of the demon power in his body in order to seal him, and the rest was taken away by the people of the East to refine it. Demon Pill. Later, he hid under Liuli Mountain and was denounced by thieves. People from the Eastern Region chased him so far. He had just completed his soul-rescue, but he was finally outnumbered. The evil sects forced him to swallow the Demon Pill, and then took him to the Demon Realm in an attempt to do so. Resurrect the Nine Babies."

"... "

He Yu was attacked by people from the Eastern Realm at the foot of Liuli Mountain. If this is true, Cang Lin must have sensed it.

Could it be that Cang Lin really refused to save He Yu?

"He made a clear relationship with Cang Lin when he went down the mountain, so Cang Lin couldn't perceive his aura..." Chen Xiao gave Wei Ling time to think, and after Wei Ling cleared up his mind and looked back, he continued calmly: "So this You can't blame Cang Lin for this matter, your adoptive father and Cang Lin have a stubborn temper, and the other wants to save face and suffer, there is no solution."

What is embarrassing is that both He Yu and Cang Lin were ultimately harmed by the Eastern Realm forces.

…is not even known today.

"However, the people in the Eastern Realm didn't get any sweets from He Yu... His mana is so powerful that Jiuying's monster nature can't help him. Not only that, he also carved a mark on himself, trying to wipe himself and Jiuying's monster pill together. .”

At this point, Wei Ling finally understood that when he fled to Cangming Temple and was hunted down by people under the curse of Wuwu, he also thought of a similar method at that time. All the bones and souls were destroyed, but in the end the magic circle was broken by Xia Zhou and failed.

Wei Ling's expression flickered slightly, and said: "With this method, there should be no flesh and blood left, but why is he here?"

"Blame me." Chen Xiao said softly: "I tried every means to keep him alive, but the result was that he couldn't live, couldn't die, couldn't touch him."

Wei Ling asked, "Why can't you touch it?"

Chen Xiao squinted his eyes, unable to do what he wanted: "Let's go, he's determined to go, and he realized that I wanted to save him before he lost consciousness, so he gave himself a second engraving, which is the 'spiritual prison', You have suffered in the hands of Yu Wanfeng. I don’t need to tell you the details. He Yu engraved his spirit firmly on his body. As long as he is contaminated with immortality and evil ways, he can’t be controlled by him. I think he is afraid of his body after death. It will fall into the hands of others, and then be used by monsters, unfortunately, after so many years, I am the only person hurt by this spiritual prison."

Wei Ling stared at Chen Xiao, and Chen Xiao understood what he was thinking, so he lifted up his sleeves and showed him the ulcerated and blackened marks on his right arm.

"I usually help him tidy up his appearance. This level can damage an arm of mine. Fortunately, I have boundless magic power and can heal myself when injured. But I can't do other things. I want to get him out of here. I can't even take it out..." Chen Xiao sighed as he spoke, "If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't want to live in this kind of ruined temple that doesn't lay eggs or shit."

Wei Ling said: "So you thought of me, and I happen to be a mortal now."

"Yes." Chen Xiao lowered his eyelashes slightly, his eyes leaked light, as if he was thinking, after a while, he took out a letter written on crumpled mulberry paper from his sleeve, and something was written on it, He was looking at it seriously: "I want to take him out and bury him in a place that is surrounded by mountains and rivers, where flowers bloom in spring, green in summer, red leaves in autumn, and plum blossoms in winter. Nuo, I am willing to accept the bet. I lost, but I never thought that his request is so difficult..." Chen Xiao was reading what was written in the letter, his voice stuttering, as if it was difficult to read the words, and finally he Sighing, he threw the letter paper to Wei Ling: "You can read it for yourself. This is something I wrote when I was still human. I originally wanted to give it to Cang Lin. Unfortunately, Cang Lin died before the demon gate opened."

Wei Ling unfolded the letter and looked back.

The letter said a lot of things. At the beginning, Chen Xiao and He Yu killed Jiuying together, and they also had a dispute because of some things. In the end, Chen Xiao left without letting go of his anger, and abandoned He Yu. When hearing the news of He Yu, it was the news of He Yu's death.

Chen Xiao spent a lot of time looking for He Yu's whereabouts, but it was too late in the end. Since then, Chen Xiao has lived in regret every day. He once thought about dying, but he was afraid that He Yu would be killed after his death. Eternal life stuck here forever.Therefore, he chose to cultivate the immortal law to the essence, so as to lose his humanity and escape the pain in his heart.

Besides that, he did another thing.

That is to use blood as a curse to bind himself to He Yu. If He Yu can't return to the dust, he can't leave.

As for why he did this, Wei Ling couldn't read the following words clearly. Maybe Chen Xiao accidentally scattered the ink when writing this letter, and the words were soaked so blurry that it was difficult to read.

"I really think I'm crazy." Seeing Wei Ling raised his head, Chen Xiao guessed that he had already read the letter: "I put a blood curse on myself, hanged myself on a tree, but wrote another letter. Sending a letter to Cang Lin asking for help, since it cannot be separated half a step, how can I send the letter?"

The dehumanized Chen Xiao couldn't understand his mood at that time, but he couldn't get rid of the shackles and was forced to be trapped here.

Wei Ling suddenly thought, maybe Chen Xiao had died a long time ago, the person in front of him was just a stranger in Chen Xiao's shell, the real Chen Xiao chose to escape in the end, and then used the remaining bit of obsession to make this "stranger" Man" is bound here to pay for the pains he cannot bear.

"I can't fulfill the bet you made with your adoptive father for you." Wei Ling folded the letter and handed it to Chen Xiao: "He has Jiuying's demon pill in his body, so he can't return to the human world, and neither can the demon realm." Where he wants to be."

"Empty bet, let it go." Chen Xiao looked down at the letter and said, "Throw away the letter, it's useless."

Wei Ling paused, and obediently took back the letter, but Chen Xiao made a sudden move and took the letter over: "Forget it, give it to me."

There was no emotion between his brows, as if this move was just unintentional, Wei Ling quietly watched him put the letter back into his sleeve, then looked away and returned to He Yu.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy, and Chen Xiao didn't know what was going on in his mind. Wei Ling turned his face sideways, his eyes were stained with light, he was silent for a moment, and asked slowly: "Can I go and see him?"

"Go." Chen Xiao leaned against the iron cage, put his hands into his sleeves, and turned his back to He Yu: "If you have seen enough, kill him, don't worry about it, this is to let him rest in peace."

Wei Ling listened to Chen Xiao's voice, but didn't speak.

In his opinion, Chen Xiao can kill He Yu by himself, the only limitation of the spirit prison is the immortal method, touching the body will hurt the body, and the release of the method will break the soul.But killing is just a moment when the knife passes through the throat, not to mention any touch or injury.

In other words, with He Yu's current appearance, a child of any age could kill him.

Chen Xiao said again: "As long as you agree, I will help you repair the spirit core."

His voice was so calm, as if the person he didn't want to look at had nothing to do with him in this life.

"I will." Wei Ling touched the Wangchuan sword in his hand, and stopped his feet: "But the adoptive father carved a seal for himself, and there will be no corpse left after death. It will be burned to ashes with the pure fire, and the soul will also be destroyed." Will disappear without a trace, how many years he has been here, I think..."

"Then take him out." Chen Xiao gritted his teeth and interrupted him: "Take him out, don't stay here, go anywhere."

He Yu pursued freedom all his life, how could he die in such a place.

Maybe Chen Xiao didn't do it himself for a long time because he couldn't take He Yu out of this gloomy dungeon.

He and He Yu used to be brothers in love and knew each other better than anyone else.Now one person falls into eternal sleep, and the other loses his humanity, but the things imprinted in the memory of his body are still indelible.

It's like eating when you're hungry, and sleeping when you're tired.

Fallen leaves want to return to their roots, and souls want to rest in peace.

Wei Ling closed his eyes and walked up to He Yu step by step. It was miraculous to say that he had been separated from He Yu for a long time, but seeing him now seemed as if he had just met him not long ago.Cang Lin said that he was like He Yu, and he couldn't understand it before, but at this moment he suddenly figured it out. He was really brought up by He Yu, and he made exactly the same choices when he was forced into a desperate situation.

"Father, I'm Ah Ling." Wei Ling knelt down and looked at He Yu's peaceful and calm face. For some reason, his nose was a little sour and his voice was a little choked up.

He said, "I'll take you out."

Once in Liuli Mountain, Wei Ling always followed He Yu, and he also learned from He Yu that he loves to drink. The master and apprentice secretly drank in Tianyu Hall when they had nothing to do. After a long time, Wei Ling got drunk all over his body. Sex, whether it is joy or sorrow, as long as you drink good wine, you can let it go.

He Yu has always been a powerful person in Wei Ling's heart. He doesn't want to cultivate the immortal law to the full, and believes that life cannot be without love and love.Later, Cang Lin asked him to go down the mountain, and he went down the mountain without any complaints. He even created his own sword manual to make up for the lack of immortal skills.

Wei Ling heard Cang Lin scolding He Yu in front of him since he was a child, and even when news of He Yu's death came out later, the scolding about him never stopped.

But now, many past events have been lost, and Wei Ling has no way of finding out what happened to He Yu.

He carried He Yu on his back and led him out of the bottomless prison. He followed Chen Xiao for a while, but no one spoke. The weight of He Yu on him took away all his strength. In his mind, it seemed that he suddenly realized that the adoptive father who was once unattainable in his eyes was actually no different from the weight of ordinary people.

If he could still stand in front of He Yu, maybe he would no longer be the person who only looked up to him before.

Chen Xiao asked Wei Ling to take He Yu to a mountainside outside the temple, where there was a towering tree full of white flowers. Chen Xiao said that the tree looked like this all year round, as if it would not happen in a thousand years. withered.

"Let your adoptive father make do with it, I'll do my best."

Chen Xiao took off the rosary beads from his hair and threw them into the air. The rosary beads turned into a halo, forming a pale barrier that surrounded the mountainside.

He Yu has Jiuying's demon pill on his body, before it is completely shattered, nothing can go wrong.

"Hurry up." Chen Xiao stood in the distance, not planning to approach.

Wei Ling put He Yu next to the tree, stretched out his hand to help him cut his hair, then pulled out the Wangchuan sword, and stared at him fixedly.

In an instant, the sword light was like silk, blood soaked He Yu's pale skin, and then a bright magic seal swam out, climbing He Yu's body like a spider web, and turned into a pure fire, wrapping him body of.The silvery white flame was burning, shining brightly against the tree full of white flowers. Wei Ling put the sword on the ground, lowered her head, and stood still in front of He Yu without moving.

Chen Xiao looked at the lingering fire, and finally came this way. His gaze was hesitant. He landed on He Yu several times, and then moved away several times. Finally, he stopped beside He Yu and reached out to touch him. The spark that floats with the wind.

"You want to restore the spirit core, do you want revenge?"

As he asked Wei Ling, he opened his palms and watched the sparks fall like snow on his fingertips, and then shattered at the touch of a touch, falling into dull powder.

Wei Ling said: "I have no grievances or enmities with them, I just want to get back what belongs to Liuli Mountain."

"Take back Cang Lin's scales...? Or, a panacea?"

"Ah."

Chen Xiao watched as He Yu gradually disappeared in the clean fire, leaving only a black bead falling under the tree. It was Jiuying's demon pill, and it still had the demonic power that made him sick to this day.He walked over, trampled the bead under his feet, crushed it into pieces, and stepped into the mud. The demon core raised faint black smoke, and slowly calmed down, announcing the end of everything.

It's a wonderful feeling.

It was as if a large chunk of life had suddenly become empty.

Chen Xiao couldn't figure it out, and he didn't want to think about it anymore. His heart was very calm, and his eyes were a little bit astringent. Maybe it was because of the cold, or maybe it was because the smell of the purifying fire was too choking.

"Your adoptive father and I have been entangled with this empty bet for hundreds of years." He said slowly, and slowly walked around Wei Ling, walked behind him, sat down again, crossed his arms Leg: "I am not convinced, he is not convinced, he has no gratitude or resentment, in the end neither he nor I can understand clearly."

"Someone asked me, why I can't let go of things that have no name or title, and I have asked myself this question more than once."

"Finally, when I cut off the love of the world, I finally figured it out. It turns out that I just found an excuse to pester him. I just want to look at him, see him smile, see him angry, and see him gnash his teeth at me. And it’s like he’s reluctant to let go.”

When the wind blows, the petals flutter and fall on his flawless silver hair, between the flames and debris that have not yet dissipated.

"In the end, no matter how high the cultivation base is, he is worshiped by the world, but he can't save himself, and I can't save him either."

Wei Ling listened quietly, and finally waited for Chen Xiao's sigh and a long silence.

The scattered pieces of fire fell all over the sky, until the last piece disappeared after the night, and a pure and warm soft wind gathered around again.

"I will use half of my life to help you repair your spiritual core. When you regain Cang Lin's panacea, you will take him as your own. From now on, with you in Liuli Mountain, I will have nothing to worry about." Chen Xiao spread his hands , with blue engravings lit up all over his body.

Wei Ling closed her eyes, and said softly: "Father is gone, your blood curse is gone, why, don't you come back to the world with me?"

He asked casually, without sincerity in his words.

Chen Xiao gave a absent-minded hum, and said, "The human world is not suitable for me, the Yaoyu is very good, and it's comfortable to stay in."

The powerful aura of immortality scattered in all directions, passing over Wei Ling's hair. It was a familiar aura, which was enveloping him little by little.

"You sacrificed so much..." Wei Ling felt that she should say something, but after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't come up with one sentence: "I can't afford it."

Chen Xiao didn't respond, he concentrated his mana on his fingertips, aiming at the seemingly absent lines of the dharma veins on Wei Ling's back.

Wei Ling, a child, is gentle on the surface but cold in heart. Only in this respect, he is different from He Yu.

For the wandering world, this is not a bad thing.

If He Yu could tame his uncontrollable Bodhisattva heart a little back then, maybe...

...

No, there has never been an if in this world, let alone a possibility.

He Yu is this kind of person, even if he goes back to the stove and remakes him, he can't change it.

Chen Xiao couldn't help laughing.

"Pay back what."

He swallowed helplessly and said,

"When you come to Yaoyu in the future, just bring me some wine."
