Volume 7: Frost Chapter 45 Encounter
Hearing this, Tang Butian raised her head. Through the falling gravel and rubble, she could vaguely make out two forces fighting. She pursed her lips and said, "I can't see clearly."
A hand covered the back of her knife-holding hand.
cobweb.
There were spider webs everywhere.
The spider silk trembled slightly, as if rising and falling in accordance with some mysterious rhythm.
Suddenly, a spider silk broke.
Suddenly, countless thin white beams of light rushed towards that place along the rock wall of the tunnel, stretching out and outlining on the rock wall.
Tang Butian was watching intently when Jiang You suddenly moved his hand away.
Then she was carried again and rolled several times on the rugged ground. The tunnel began to shake and she heard a loud noise coming from underground - the ground cracked.
The headlights fell not far away, and the dazzling white light just hit the door.
Some ice chips peeled off the door and floated in the tunnel.
Jiang You wrapped her hand again .
A huge spider web floated in the darkness, trapping everything in it, including gravel, stones, and moss on the rock walls...
Crackling.
Crackling.
What was that sound? Tang Butian looked in the direction where the sound came from. At this moment, the entire spider web began to move and tighten. She gradually saw clearly that in the darkness, there was a tree that was constantly growing.
Tang Butian felt Jiang You's hand clench for a moment, then loosen again.
Jiang You sighed in her ear.
The next moment——
Her eyes were red.
The flames burned on the spider web, and as the web rose and fell, rows of fire waves rolled and surged.
Jiang Mo stood in the center of the spider web.
Heipi was wrapped in spider webs, and the fire burned his body. His hair was almost burned off, and part of his eyebrows were burned off. His ginger-colored robe was burned to tatters . He looked at the waves of fire on the spider web, at the sparks scattered in the tunnel, and at Jiang Mo.
Suddenly, countless rocks fell from above the tunnel, and countless tree roots grew out from the ground, penetrating the spider webs and burying Jiang Mo inside.
The tunnel suddenly became dark.
Tang Butian was about to stand up, but Jiang You stood up faster than her and stood in front of her.
Tang Butian took a step back, gripped the wooden sword tightly, and looked ahead vigilantly.
Heipi walked towards them slowly, step by step.
There were still some flickers of fire on his yellow robe.
He stopped three meters away from Jiang You. He glanced at Tang Butian casually, then stared at Jiang You, as if he was examining him, or thinking about something.
After a long time, Hei Pi spoke. He said, "Is it you?"
Jiang You said: "Long time no see."
"Why are you here?" Heipi asked, looking puzzled.
"Ask him," Jiang You pointed in the direction of the pile of rocks, "When my son grows up, he becomes rebellious and has his own ideas."
"son?"
"yes."
Heipi was silent.
Jiang You patted the sand off his body and asked, "So you came here half a century ago?"
"Yes."
"Attached to a poplar tree?"
"Yes."
"What about the thirty-one years?"
"After living here for twenty years, I think," Heipi looked at Jiang You, "human beings are a community. Individuals may not realize this in their entire lives, and they may not realize that they are part of this extremely large community. They even fight each other and wage wars with the purpose of exterminating each other. But at certain times, they can reach a consensus, face fear, and fight against the way of heaven in a way that I still cannot understand. This is the truth of the human age."
"Is it?"
Heipi took a step forward and said, "Thirty-one years ago, the moment they killed me, I finally understood what you said."
"Aren't you still alive?"
"You said that this place has been able to survive until now because it does not have a clear independent dominant will."
"Did I say that ?" Jiang You was a little uncertain.
Heipi was sure, "You said so."
"You can't take dreams seriously."
"I took it seriously."
"So what else did I say?"
"We who are floating in the chaos want to gain a place here. We don't want to be enemies with humans, but to blend in and become a part of humanity. Then the rules here will recognize us. So I made a decision at that time. I want to integrate a part of me into the human community. For this, I am willing to erase my own will, just like the existence that created this world."
"Okay," Jiang Youba pulled down the zipper of his jacket a little, breathing more smoothly, "but you are still here now."
"You ruined my plan." Heipi's tone was still calm.
"Jinghu Club?" Jiang You asked tentatively.
Heipi nodded, "Brother Hu, one of you walks the path of ghosts and gods, and the other stays in the human world. Under my guidance, they will continue to find the relics I left behind, as well as my remains. In order to stop them, humans will refocus their energy on the path of gods and ghosts. There is a great possibility that someone will inherit my legacy. The stronger they are, the more powerful demons will enter here. In the long run, the rules will change."
"You're going to kill yourself?"
"yes."
"Aura revival style or doomsday zombie style?"
"What? " Heipi was a little confused.
"Your research is not in-depth enough," Jiang You thought for a moment and asked, "Then if your heritage includes a cat-eared girl?"
Heipi smiled bitterly, "You are still the same."
“I’ve always been like this.”
Heipi's eyes swept across Tang Butian's face and he asked, "Is this the disciple you accepted here?"
"No." Jiang You denied.
"daughter?"
Jiang You was unhappy, "I'm not even thirty yet, how can I have a daughter that old?"
Tang Butian looked at Heipi warily.
Heipi's gaze moved from her face to the wooden sword, and finally back to Jiang You's face. He asked, "Which side do you choose to stand on now?"
Jiang You said: "I think you are a little self-touched. In this respect, you are still quite human."
"Which side will he choose to stand on?" Heipi asked again.
Jiang You answered with certainty: "The son follows the father's career."
"Well," Heipi glanced in the direction of the pile of stones, and saw some red light shining through the stones, "You have also..."
Jiang You quickly interrupted him, "I forgot."
Heipi didn't say anything more. He said, "It was good to die in his hands in the end."
"It's still not too late to escape now."
“That’s not necessary.”
"We can still cooperate and develop an underwater world or something like that," Jiang You sighed slightly, "I have a yard, planted a tree, and dug a pond. I plan to raise some big sharks in it, so they look mighty and powerful."
"If you are here and my consciousness still exists, you will definitely use it." Hei Pi decisively rejected Jiang You's proposal.
"I just don't think it's necessary." Jiang You said.
"Whether it's self-motivation or self-willedness, I have done everything I can. We have paid a huge price and sacrificed too much."
"What is your relationship with Meng Yuanbai?" Jiang You asked.
"He was the first human being I met."
"Did you kill Xie Dong?"
"No." Heipi denied.
Jiang You wanted to ask something else, but Hei Pi said, "Look for the rest yourself."
"That's fine."
Heipi turned around and walked towards the pile of rocks, saying as he walked: "I'm curious about what you will do."
Red light shines out from the cracks in the stone.
The next moment——
Bang!
The pile of rocks exploded.
Tang Butian turned her head and saw Jiang Mo and Hei Pi fighting again.
Jiang You grabbed her and ran a few steps with her towards the door. Tang Butian felt a wave of heat rushing towards her, and then stopped when it was about to touch her.
Red waves of fire swept everything, the rock walls were melting, and the tunnels were collapsing.
Tang Butian asked: "Is it over?"
Jiang You said: "Not yet."
Suddenly the fire disappeared, and the sounds, the sound of rocks rolling, the sound of the ground cracking, all the sounds disappeared.
No, there was also the sound of breathing.
Tang Butian listened to Jiang You's breathing behind him.
The headlights were still on.
It was half sunk in the sand, its battery probably running out, and the dazzling light became soft and faint.
Hei Pi turned around and seemed to be looking at Jiang You.
"Have a nice journey." Tang Butian heard Jiang Yousai.
Then, Heipi's entire body turned into black ash, fell to the ground and mixed into the gravel.
The minced ginger swung down along the spider silk.
Boom!
The tunnel collapsed.
The light from the headlights was also blocked.
dark.
She heard the sound of the wind, the sound of the wind blowing the sand, and then she saw light, it was moonlight. She saw the moon, and it was already night.
There are also stars in the sky.
Jiang You let go of his hand, walked around Tang Butian and took a few steps forward. Relying on his memory, he dug in the sand and dug out the backpack. Jiang Mo staggered to his side, and Jiang You touched his hair, "Are you tired?"
Tang Butian looked at them.
Jiang You turned around and said to Tang Butian, "Guan Qingtong is almost here."
Tang Butian nodded, and she asked, "Was the door sealed by Meng Yuanbai?"
"Perhaps."
"Can't he untie it?"
"There was no need to fight like this. Don't believe everything he says," Jiang You walked to Tang Butian with his mountaineering bag. He sat down and took a few breaths. After resting for a while, he looked up at Tang Butian.
Hair fluttering in the moonlight.
Fantasy and beautiful.
"Call me daddy?" Jiang You said.
Tang Butian couldn't help it and kicked him.
Jiang You smiled, put his backpack behind him, and then lay down. "To be honest, you should come to my place and do the work of a saint. It's more promising."
"No." Tang Butian held the wooden sword and looked at the starry sky.
Jiang You also looked at the starry sky. The stars were dotted on the night sky like pearls, twinkling and forming a galaxy of stars.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Butian turned her head to look at Jiang You. She asked, "The institute has studied his heritage for a long time. There are also techniques and many other things we don't know about. Are they all going to be destroyed?"
Her eyes are like stars.
Jiang You said: "I don't care about humans tonight."
When Tang Butian was about to say something else, he heard footsteps from above his head and sand falling.
Guan Qingtong slid down from above.
