Chapter Fifty-Four
This anger spread to Miyagi, and the ghost next to him wanted to pounce on again, so he heard from the depths of the inner palace, Xie Shen's tired call: "Bring him in."
Hearing Xie Shen’s words, all the ghosts paused. They looked at each other. At this moment, the palace gate opened slowly one after another, and a man dressed in official uniforms led a group of attendants. Standing at the door, respectfully said: "Master Fu Gui, please, your Majesty."
Fu Changling didn't hesitate. He jumped from the wall and fell in front of the official, holding a sword in one hand and the talisman in his hand, and calmly said: "You know what I'm holding in my hand."
"I know."
The official's expression was calm: "Your Majesty also knows, please rest assured, Your Majesty asks you, there is no malice."
"Let's go."
Fu Changling didn't say much. He didn't believe what the official said, but he didn't want to be entangled. So he just made a defensive posture, beware at all times, and followed the official to the palace.
They walked through the palace gates and finally came to the main hall. When Fu Changling walked into the main hall, Xie Shen was the only person in the hall. He sat in a high position, his expression was cold, revealing his continued exhaustion, Fu Changling held the blasting charm in his hand and looked up. Xiang Xie Shen: "Where is Qin Yan?"
"he's good."
Xie Shen said indifferently: "I don't need to pursue what you do. You can leave Wanguya."
"I ask you where Qin Yan is?!"
Fu Changling shouted: "Do you think I am here to negotiate terms with you?!"
Xie Shen didn't speak, he calmly looked at the explosive charm in Fu Changling's hand.
He knew very well what Fu Changling was holding. When that person built the Cliff of Ten Thousand Bone, he told him that they were ghosts and had a terrible hatred with Yunze. She built the Cliff of Ten Thousand Bone as hope. They can let go of their grievances and either go through the cycle of reincarnation, or they will never enter the clouds forever.
In Hantan Cave, there is a core formation. Once that core formation is destroyed, the entire Ten Thousand Bone Cliff will no longer exist.
In order to protect that core formation, that person set a ban in Hantan Cave, and no ghosts and sprites in Wan Bone Cliff could enter Hantan Cave, even if it was him.
He knew very well what Fu Changling was holding, so he also knew what Fu Changling meant. If he wanted to go by himself, he would have already left. He came into the palace today to take Qin Yan away.
Xie Shen stood up and said calmly: "Let's go, I will take you to see him."
Fu Changling was stunned. He didn't expect Xie Shen to agree to him so easily. He couldn't help being more vigilant. While following Xie Shen, he said: "What do you mean? Are you willing to let him go with me?"
"It's not that I didn't let him go," Xie Shen said in a calm voice, "it was he himself who agreed to me and left him."
"What do you mean?"
Fu Changling frowned: "What does it mean to stay by yourself?"
Xie Shen didn't say a word, he stopped, glanced at him up and down, and then said, "Is it you who will use the rebirth flower?"
Hearing this, Fu Changling was stunned. After a long time, he said with difficulty: "What do you...what do you mean?"
"Leguo used to be a rich country," Xie Shen suddenly changed the subject and slowly said, "When I succeeded to the throne, Yueguo was still in good weather, singing and dancing, and I was eighteen years old. I thought this country would always be like this. ."
Fu Changling was silent. He listened to Xie Shen's words and followed him through the corridor and out of the palace gate.
The sky was overwhelmed, and it seemed that it would rain at any time. Xie Shen’s voice was tired and desolate: "But I don’t know when it started. Leguo began to decline. At first, droughts were frequent. Later, many soils were unable to grow crops. Natural disasters. Next, the people have been displaced. I pray for blessings everywhere, hoping that God can bless us to enjoy our country."
"The national teacher told me that this is due to the diminishing spiritual aura of Leguo, which cannot be changed by manpower, so as the emperor, all I can do is to migrate and merge the people again and again. Leguo is getting smaller and smaller in the end. There are more than 100,000 people left, and then one day someone comes to report, and the people in a city in Le State disappeared."
"I know." Fu Changling nodded, "Bai Lezong did it, right? He slaughtered your people and trained you into spiritual veins. Later, you and Hongmeng Tiangong asked for help, but the Hongmeng Tiangong did not arrive. The one behind Bailezong The devil’s people arrived first."
Fu Changling was unwilling to touch the name of the devil head. He wrote lightly: "The devil head led people to kill you. You died here in vain, turned into ghosts and ghosts, and were sealed in the Cliff of Ten Thousand Bone. But?"
"The Devil?"
When Xie Shen heard this, he couldn't help but laughed out: "The outside world, did you tell you that? Just find a scapegoat and take the blame?"
Hearing this, Fu Changling couldn't help being stunned: "What do you mean?"
"Where is the devil?"
Xie Shen laughed: "It's immortals here! They are all immortals from Hongmeng Tiangong!"
Hearing this, Fu Changling suddenly narrowed his pupils: "What did you say?"
"Back when I knew about the massacre of the people in that town, I asked the national teacher to investigate, and the national teacher told me that it was Bai Lezong, so I asked for help from Hongmeng Tiangong." Xie Shen led Fu Changling out of the palace. The rain came down, and the attendant next to him held up the umbrella and blocked the heads of the two. Xie Shen's voice was a little erratic in the rain, "Hongmeng Tiangong soon wrote back to me, saying that they would send someone to help me. Are you not surprised? Ever, a country, perhaps the people are helpless, but the emperor has dragon energy to guard the palace. No immortal cultivator can enter the palace casually and kill a king, whether it is the female devil you are talking about. Okay, it’s the Bailezong, just relying on them, how did they break through the rules of heaven, enter the palace, kill me and everyone in the national teacher, and let the whole Le Country lose its asylum?"
When Fu Changling listened to his words, a terrible thought emerged: "Hongmeng Tiangong... lied to you."
Xie Shen remained silent.
He climbed up the steps, and after a long time, he said: "Perhaps, it's not just the Hongmeng Temple."
"A lot of people came that day, three sects and four clans, all of whom were sent. They wanted to enter the palace and rest. I don’t doubt that he has him. I just think that Yunze Immortal Realm attaches so much importance to such a small country as ours. It is our honor. So I I personally opened the gate of the city and brought them into the palace. I banqueted them and told them about the sufferings of Yueguo over the years. I hope they can help a group of people in the future. We will build Taoist temples for Amen and enshrine incense. We will be grateful to them , Regard them as our gods."
"They said yes. However, on that night," Xie Shen's voice trembled, "They massacred the entire Miyagi city after nightfall. My wife, mother, children, brothers, friends, subjects... "Xie Shen stood on the steps, he turned his head to look at him, the rain pattered down, bloody tears fell in Xie Shen's green eyes, "I saw them fall one by one with my own eyes."
"That night, Qing'er was the only one who was not with us. She cried all night and was taken to play in the garden by the nanny, and then she disappeared. I thought she was also dead at that time."
"Everyone died, only I survived. They captured me alive and imprisoned me. Then they used a mountain to build a refining pond, and threw the people into the refining pond as materials."
"They are refining their spiritual veins..."
"Yes!" Xie Shen laughed, "Spirit veins! The foundation of your immortal cultivators! The source of everything in this world. It turns out that Leguo's aura is not exhausted, but the entire Yunze, the entire fairy world, is exhausted! But they I dare not say, I dare not tell others, your senior leaders in the fairy world have been worried about this for a long time, what should you do?"
"It just so happens that Bailezong came up with this method of cultivating veins with people. A person in a city develops a spiritual vein that Bailezong needs, and people from that country can cultivate this Yunze immortal world to cultivate immortals. What is the spiritual vein that everyone needs?!"
"Do you now know that Yunze's aura is exhausting?"
Xie Shen walked down the steps and approached Fu Changling: "Does anyone in Yunze know? Are you still cultivating as usual, still cultivating, thinking that Yunze is still in the flourishing age of cultivation, and Tianjiao is coming out in large numbers?"
"Do you know where the aura you use comes from? Do you dare to see what is stepping on your feet?"
The long bluestone road under Fu Changling's feet turned into white bones. They were paved on the bottom of Fu Changling's feet. Xie Shenjing watched him quietly: "You step on the flesh and blood of others, and the bones of others, and then step by step toward your road to the sky."
"You profess to be immortals, and you claim to be the right way, but what you do can be regarded as what the immortals do?! Think of the right way?!"
Fu Changling listened to Xie Shen's words, his expression was calm, facing this tragic past, for a moment, Fu Changling felt that he seemed to have returned to his previous life, he was still the true monarch of Huayang.
He listened to the suffering of sentient beings, sitting on the top of the cloud.
Yunze didn't die in Karma Prison in the end. The door of Karma Prison was closed as early as Qin Yan's death, and no magic repairs appeared later. Yunze finally experienced ten years of spiritual exhaustion and finally headed towards the end of the world.
He always thought that Yunze's spiritual energy was exhausted, and it originated from Karma Prison, and it was what Karma Prison did that caused Yunze's final overthrow. But now know that Yunze's ending has been written so long ago.
He faced Xie Shen's questioning and was silent.
This is the sin of the immortal world, he is irrefutable.
Seeing that Fu Changling didn't speak, Xie Shen slowly calmed down. He turned around and stepped forward.
The sound of the rain was pattering, and his voice was dumb: "I asked those immortals, they did not cultivate the way for the people, not for the common people, for what? Those immortals told me that they cultivated the way for their own power to rise, this world We have no pity for ants, and they will not pity us."
"So I know, we have no way out of Leguo, we are finished."
"Their formation works day by day, and my people become the nourishment for the spiritual veins. Those who are thrown into the refining pool will not only have no flesh and blood, but their souls will also be refined into spiritual stones and become consumables for the monks. When the spirit stones are exhausted, that person will completely disappear from this world."
"I have been thinking about what to do, and finally one day, one person, she saved us."
Fu Changling and Xie Shen arrived at the door of the altar together. Xie Shen did not open the door. He stood at the door, looking at the door, and calmly said: "In order not to let the monks slaughter us wantonly, she catalyzed us all into ghosts, and feared that we would cause chaos. We signed a blood contract and used our lifelong cultivation base to open up Ten Thousand Bone Cliffs, and then she died."
"Even though she is dead, the matter is not over. The exhaustion of the aura has not stopped. When the aura of Wanguya is completely exhausted, we will be reduced to ashes. So I have to find a way to let me out. This method is the best. , There is a person who can open the seal of Wanguya. The place where Wanguya's seal is unwrapped is outside, and because it is a blood contract seal, it needs my blood relatives to crack it, so Yuqing is my hope and our pleasure The hope of the whole country."
"So the second way?"
Fu Changling spoke and looked at the ancient gate in front of him.
He suddenly didn't dare to open this door, and he didn't dare to know what was going on. But he has to ask, he has to know.
Xie Shen was silent for a moment, and finally he slowly said: "We are ghosts and cannot enter the cycle. If one person can cross us, we can enter the cycle."
"Transformation?" Fu Changling's lips trembled, "How to make transformation?"
"Have you ever heard of the Buddha feeding the eagle with flesh and blood?"
Xie Shen turned to look at him, and Fu Changling turned back shaking, looking at Xie Shen in shock. Xie Shen took a bit of pity: "The easiest way is to feed these evil spirits with the flesh and blood of the immortal. The moment each evil spirit eats his flesh and blood, he will experience the most resentful and hateful thing in the other's memory. "
"He needs to use his spiritual power to continuously give birth to his flesh and blood. Once he loses his spiritual power, he will die here."
"What if it's not dead?"
Fu Changling asked hoarsely, Xie Shen turned his head and looked at the door: "I don't know."
"Everyone has love, hatred, and resentment. He has to bear the hatred of 100,000 people with one person. I don't know what he will become."
he does not know.
Fu Changling knew it.
When he took the death flower, he sent it to him.
Fu Changling remembered that rainy night, he definitely felt someone coming in the courtyard. But that night, maybe he just came back from Wanguya, he was full of flesh and blood, and his Dao heart was damaged.
He may even be surrounded by ghosts, so he dare not see anyone.
So he just put a reborn flower in Fu Changling's window, and then staggered away in the rainy night.
At that time, he took the old flowers, only eighteen years old.
He was still a young man, and he had to face the hatred of 100,000 people before he saw the real appearance of this world.
That hatred came from his teacher, the place where he was born and raised. This place admonished him to "dispel evil, support the way, keep the heart as one," but turned around and joined forces with the immortal world to slaughter 100,000 innocent people.
He has experienced the pain of those people over and over again. For three months and nearly a hundred years under Wanguya, when he went out from Wanguya, where was he Yan Ming in the wind and snow?
"He did it voluntarily?"
Fu Changling's voice was dry.
Xie Shen shook his head: "No one can force him."
"What does he want?"
"Nothing." Xie Shen hesitated, and finally said, "He just told me that if he falls unfortunately, he will have to rebirth and bloom, let me take it for you. He said that he will let you come back and bring the karma hell. seal."
Fu Changling felt tight in his chest and took a mouthful of a boulder, and at that moment the boulder plummeted, smashing his heart with blood.
He finally knew how the dead flower came.
He finally knew why he hadn't seen this dead flower for eight years under Wanguya.
He finally knew why Qin Yan hadn't been in a hurry to find the reborn flowers or seal it since he entered Wangu Cliff, but only wholeheartedly wanted to rescue Xie Yuqing.
From the very beginning, he knew that the Reborn Flower needed to overcome the 100,000 grievances!
What about that year? Did he know when he entered Wanguya?
Fu Changling didn't dare to think about it. With the sound of rain, he staggered forward and pushed open the vermilion mottled door in front of him with all his strength.
The door made a "creaking" sound over the years, as if it was a prelude to time, showing the year before him.
Then he saw, in the center of the altar, a young man in white clothes was stained with blood, hand twisting lotus flowers, sitting cross-legged on a blood-drawn formation. Ghosts came overwhelmingly, gnawing on him, his white clothes was the only bright color in this black depression, his expression was calm and calm, without half a struggle. The black, white and blood are intertwined, like the picture of gods and Buddha painted on the wall of Jinguang Temple. It is so sad and pitiful to see people's hearts. can't wait to kneel on the spot and repent of this life in front of him.
Fu Changling looked at Qin Yan, who was bitten by a ghost with his eyes closed, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
He staggered forward and knelt before Qin Yan.
Fu Changling had imagined countless times that if one day he really saw Qin Yan back then, what would happen to him when he saw him nailed to the wall of the Buddha.
And now he seemed to see it.
He thought, in the previous life, when he didn't know, under the cliff of Ten Thousand Bone, the eighteen-year-old Qin Yan was exactly what he is now.
He tremblingly raised his hand to cover his face, crying and laughing.
"Why are you so stupid..."
The moment his hand touched Qin Yan, the ghost followed Qin Yan's body all the way to Fu Changling. When the pain came, Fu Changling suddenly embraced the people in front of him.
The ghost screamed with surprise and instantly swallowed Fu Changling completely. The moment Fu Changling hugged this person in his arms, he felt
In the past and present, there was finally a moment when they were together.
Whether they live or die, they all go together.
