The winter solstice is on a road that seems to never end.

Both sides were covered with gray fog, which drifted lightly, but was heavy on my heart, making it hard to breathe.

No matter how fast or slow his steps are, these mists always follow him.

At first, he thought it was demonic energy, but later found out that it was not. If he had to describe it, it was probably an aura that was on the edge of demonic energy. It was not even demonic energy, but it was full of numbness and depression, very similar to the negative emotions of human beings. It is more harmless than demonic energy, but it will also invade and infiltrate silently, subtly changing a person, causing him to gradually lose his fighting spirit, be at a loss, and eventually fall and drown here.

This reminded Dongzhi that they followed He Yu to Yangcheng to rescue Cheng Hui. They also encountered the same gray fog and almost couldn't get out - if there was no Longshen to save them later.

Thinking of Long Shen, his breathing stagnated slightly.

In the past, he was just an ordinary person who was afraid of monsters and monsters, and was afraid of death, but now, he is trapped in a boundless abyss, and he may never be able to return, but he has no fear in his heart, because he has more important things to do than fear.

Even though his reason told him that Long Shen was eroded by demonic energy, and he died for the seal, falling into the abyss might have been more fortunate, but there was still a trace of expectation in the winter solstice, hoping that things would not develop in the worst direction. It is expected that Long Shen will be as strong as ever, able to suppress the demonic energy and persist until his appearance.

In the fog and gray, a little light appeared in the distance.

In the winter solstice, the heart moves slightly and speeds up.

Any movement in this kind of place will not be a good thing, but a static is worse than a movement. Only with movement can a breakthrough be possible.

But as he got closer and closer to the light, he found that the light was not a single point, but was connected by a string of lanterns. Those lanterns were held in their hands, while others were in shackles and walked slowly.

The clothes of the officials and the prisoners are a bit strange, obviously the clothes of the Republic of China in the early last century. Everyone's expression is numb and his eyes are dull. When they see the "break-in" of the winter solstice, they seem to be agitated by the sudden breath of the living, and they all look at him. When he came over, his eyes were full of death, and when he suddenly touched him, Dongzhi shuddered subconsciously.

Isn't this the same team he encountered last time when he strayed into Xu Wan's enchantment by the Liuhua Bridge in Yangcheng?

As soon as he thought about it, the man holding the lantern had already raised his whip and lashed at him, but the winter solstice was no longer the unarmed winter solstice in Yangcheng who needed someone to protect him. When they started, they swept towards each other with the sword light. Under the shocked and frightened eyes of the whip-wielder, the sword light was already under their hood. Wherever they went, all the teams vanished into nothingness and vanished in mourning.

As the gray shadow was wiped out by the sword light, the white sword light not only did not dim, but instead became more and more fiery, the eyes were a little painful, and the winter solstice couldn't help closing his eyes, only for a short second, when he opened his eyes again When found out that the white light actually came from a mobile phone held by a person on the opposite side.

Seeing that he raised his hand to block the light, the other party quickly turned off the light and apologized: "I'm sorry, I just accidentally turned on the flashlight function, so I will turn it off!"

Maybe it was because the winter solstice stared at him so strangely, the other party apologized again and asked him, "Are you alright?"

The winter solstice subconsciously touched back and felt empty.

There is no long guard sword, behind it is the rigid seat back.

On the train in the middle of the night, the lights and shadows outside the windows on both sides are shuttled, the noise of progress continues, and the body vibrates slightly. Such scenes are not unfamiliar to the winter solstice.

But he shouldn't be here.

"Have a nightmare?" the boy asked again, "Would you like to play cards with us?"

The winter solstice pinched the back of his hand, which was very painful.

There was a table full of playing cards, and even the seat in front of the Winter Solstice was occupied. The boy sitting opposite him was a little embarrassed, and he stretched out his hand to move the cards to his side, but the Winter Solstice suddenly reached out and held him down, People were startled.

"...You guys keep playing, I'll go to the bathroom." Winter Solstice said, grabbed the backpack beside him, got up and walked out.

He found an empty seat at random and sat down, opened his backpack, and found his wallet, ID holder, clothes, and power bank inside.

Only there are no runes.

A passenger passed him and walked to the bathroom at the end of the aisle.

At the winter solstice, he jumped up from his seat and grabbed each other.

The other party turned his head and looked at him inexplicably. The familiar face made Dongzhi blurt out: "What happened?!"

He Yu snorted: "Do you know me?"

Dongzhi stared at him for a moment, and before He Yu thought he was mentally ill, he finally said, "Hello, my name is Dongzhi."

He Yu: "...What's your name? It's none of my business? Brother, are you alright? Are you feeling uncomfortable? I'll call you a flight attendant?"

Winter Solstice lowered his voice: "Are you going to Changchun this time? There are demons on this train, you have to be careful!"

He Yuren is tall and big, and it's no problem to deal with the winter solstice, but he couldn't break free. He could only look at him with crazy eyes, and his expression became unpleasant.

"If you do this again, I'll call the police!"

The two looked at each other for a moment, then Dongzhi released him and said slowly: "I'm sorry, I didn't wake up just now, and mistook you for my friend."

"Forget it, forget it!" He Yu waved his hand generously and left without looking back.

Winter Solstice looked at his back in a trance.

He suspects that he has fallen into an illusion, and the illusion will repeat the past events again and again, breaking his heart defense, but at the same time he has an even more terrifying idea——

Encountered monsters on the train, saw bone dragons on Changbai Mountain, was admitted to the Special Administration Bureau through hard work, met a group of like-minded people, worshiped Longshen as a teacher, slayed demons and eliminated demons, will all of this be possible? A long dream on the train?

After waking up from the dream, the world is still the ordinary world, there is nothing bizarre at all, the city is strange, He Yu can't spell, and Long Shen is not the Seven Star Longyuan Sword.

He subconsciously drew a symbol on the table.

The talisman of the bright light talisman.

If all this is really just a dream, is it even the rune that he imagined?

Winter Solstice slowly tightened his hands, suddenly got up, and walked in the direction He Yu left just now.

After passing through several carriages, he finally found He Yu.

With him, there were several other people, and one of them had enough faces to make his heart stop.

Maybe it was because he was standing still so strangely, the other party quickly looked up.

He Yu: "Why is it you again?"

Under the gaze of Long Shen, the winter solstice forced a smile: "I'm sorry, because you look too much like a friend of mine, I, I miss him so much, so I'm a little rude."

He originally wanted to pretend to be pitiful, stay anyway, and then slowly figure out the situation, but as soon as the words came out, there was no need to brew emotions, and tears came out of his eyes and rolled down.

He Yu was taken aback and looked at his soft and harmless face and heartbroken expression. He suspected that the other party was a liar and couldn't say anything, so he hurriedly said, "Don't cry, say something if you have something to say!"

"Sit down and talk." Long Shen finally said.

The voice was still so familiar, just like the first sight on the train, and the tears of the winter solstice flowed even more.

He Yu hurriedly took out a tissue and handed it to him.

Dongzhi thanked him and took it, and found that Long Shen was also staring at him, his face was calm, and he did not show any boredom or discomfort with suspicious strangers, but it didn't stop there. The strange and calm eyes made Dongzhi's heart tremble, and he quickly moved away. sight.

"You look like an old friend of mine. He played with me from childhood to adulthood, and then passed away for some reason. I miss him so much, so when I see you, it inevitably brings back memories. Sorry, I just couldn't help it for a while. Emotions." In a short period of time, he had already drawn up a set of rhetoric.

He Yu was suspicious: "Then how do you know my name?"

The winter solstice pretended to be surprised: "My friend is called He Yu, are you too?!"

He Yu scratched his head: "This is really a ghost!"

The winter solstice was busy and apologized: "I won't deliberately look for bad luck, it's just a coincidence!"

"There are many coincidences in the world." Long Shen said, "But meeting is fate."

The winter solstice said embarrassedly: "Thank you, my name is the winter solstice, I just quit my job, and I'm going to travel to Changchun, how about you?"

"Resign?" He Yu's fuss is exactly the same as in the winter solstice impression, "You look like you are still studying!"

Long Shen said: "We are also colleagues from a company. We are going to Changbai Mountain just in time for our annual vacation."

Dongzhi pointed at Kan Chaosheng who was eating potato chips and playing games and said with a smile, "Is this your colleague too?"

There was a little more smile on Long Shen's face: "This is my nephew."

He patted Chao Sheng's shoulder lightly: "Say hello."

Watching Chaosheng take a break from his busy schedule, he raised his head at a slightly invisible angle: "Hello, brother!"

Dongzhi glanced at Long Shen and coughed lightly, "You can also call me uncle. What game are you playing?"

"The Great Wilderness!" Kan Chaosheng didn't lift his head.

At this moment, Long Shen suddenly said: "I'll go for a walk, Chaosheng don't run around, He Yu can help you watch him."

He Yu also opened the game to prepare to play, nodded when he heard the words, and when Long Shen got up, he ran over to sit next to Kan Chaosheng.

The Winter Solstice was thinking about staying or finding an excuse to stay with Long Shen, when he heard Long Shen say, "Are you together?"

He looked up quickly and saw that Long Shen was also looking at him. He obviously said it to him. He didn't have time to think about it. Dongzhi hurriedly agreed and got up and followed behind Long Shen.

The two walked through a carriage one after the other, and Long Shen didn't stop when he passed the bathroom. The winter solstice didn't know where he wanted to go, and it was hard to ask, so he had to keep following until he came to an unmanned aisle. Mottled light and shadow on both sides, strong concealment.

Long Shen suddenly grabbed his wrist with a backhand. The Winter Solstice was caught off guard and was directly pressed against the wall of the car.

"Actually, you're here for me, right?" The breath of the two of them could be heard close to hand, and the tip of their nose was almost against the tip of their nose.

Dongzhi looked at the other party approaching, the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling, not knowing whether he was delusional or not, he felt that Long Shen seemed to be very different from the one he had just met.

At that time, Long Shen was almost like an awe-inspiring and inviolable flower of ice and snow, how could he show such a slightly evil smile?

"What if I say yes?"

"That's as you wish."

The other party said that he used his knees to separate his defenseless legs, inserted into the middle with irresistible force, pushed it up, and then rubbed it several times with an unmistakeable ambiguity.

Winter Solstice was gasping for breath, and grabbed his shoulder to stop it.

"what are you doing!"

"Didn't you say you wanted it yourself, what kind of innocence?"

Long Shen let out a low laugh, squeezed his chin and kissed him, quickly twisting his tongue, making him speechless.

At the winter solstice, the water vapor in the corners of his eyes brought out a beautiful flush, and he almost drowned in this stormy siege, but his only remaining sense of reason still let him hold the opponent's shoulder and push the opponent away some distance.

"stop……"

"The feet are soft, the waist is soft, but the mouth is still hard." Long Shen smiled frivolously, and rubbed his thigh against him again, "Oh, maybe it's not just the mouth?"

Winter Solstice stared at him panting, as if trying to distinguish between dreams and reality, but the feeling from his body was too strong to ignore.

"who are you?"

Long Shen raised his eyebrows: "Oh, you don't seem to know my name yet? Then introduce yourself. My name is Long Shen. The He Yu you just met is my little brother."

"What little brother?" Dongzhi opened his eyes wide, isn't he a subordinate?

Long Shen sneered: "He used to mess with me, and now he's doing a little business with me, do you understand? You can also check the eight generations of your ancestors when you ask for a cannon! I don't care about you!"

After saying that, he grabbed his waist and gently bit down on the Adam's apple on his neck.

Winter Solstice grunted, grabbed the opponent's wrist abruptly, and with a little force, pulled it in the opposite direction.

"Two more hits?" The other party snorted and shot back. The two of them passed a few moves in a blink of an eye. Dongzhi stretched his legs and kicked him lower, and Long Shen had to take a few steps back. "Good skill, where did you practice?"

Dongzhi looked at his frivolous smile, and an anger suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart.

"You are not Long Shen."

Face, body, breath, voice, all of them are Long Shen, but only the character is not.

The other party sneered inexplicably: "I am not Long Shen, the name clearly written on my ID card, is it difficult..."

He looked up and down at the Winter Solstice, and said suspiciously, "Who did you mistake me for? Oh, look at your little one whose hatred has not disappeared, is it an old lover?"

wrong.

Nothing is right!

The consciousness of the winter solstice begins to be a little confusing.

Intellectually, he felt that this was just an illusion, an illusion created by demonic energy based on the deep expectations of the human heart.

But another voice told him that this is the real world, there are no monsters and ghosts at all, the origin of Long Shen's identity, and the scene in front of him is the real world.

"Long Shen..." The broken tone that sounded like a moan came out of Dongzhi's mouth, startling the angry Long Shen, "Tell me, Kan Chaosheng is actually not your nephew, he is a monk who has practiced for five hundred years. Jiao, who just turned into a humanoid, right?"

Long Shen looked at him with a neurotic look: "I don't think you mistook your lover, you just ran out of a mental hospital!"

"It's really bad luck!" Long Shen brushed off the dust on his clothes. After such a fuss, he turned into SpongeBob SquarePants. He wasn't interested in going crazy with the other party, so he turned around and left.

The other party didn't entangle anymore, but he took a few steps, but the ghost stopped and looked back.

The man stood there in a daze, his eyes were red and there were no tears, but it made people feel hopeless for no reason.

"Hey, are you okay?" Long Shen couldn't help asking.

The other party ignored him.

Long Shen cursed and left without looking back.

After returning to his seat and sitting down, Long Shen found that the scene just now was still stuck in his mind, and he couldn't get his attention back at all.

He Yu, who was playing the game, took time to look at him and said strangely, "Boss, are you all right?"

Hearing this sentence, Long Shen became even more irritable, and simply got up and walked back.

He walked all the way back to the place just now, and found that the winter solstice was still there, and he still kept his original posture.

Long Shen said nothing, grabbed the opponent's wrist and walked back, found a seat nearby and sat down.

"Wait for me here."

He dropped a word and turned away.

Before long, Long Shen put a bottle of water and a lunch box on the table.

"Eat."

The winter solstice is hot, and want to laugh a little.

"Thank you." He took the water and pushed the lunch back, "I'm not hungry, you can eat it yourself."

Long Shen frowned and looked at him: "I buy a lunch box for a stranger every eight hundred years, how dare you refuse my kindness?"

As soon as he exited, he was full of ruffians. He had never heard Long Shen claim to be Lao Tzu in the winter solstice, and he felt full of funny when he was uncomfortable, as if the world was unreal.

He forced himself not to pay attention to these details, and after a few sips, his mood became much calmer.

"Take it!"

The other party threw a business card, and the winter solstice picked it up and took a look.

Long's design, chairman of the board.

That funny feeling came back to the winter solstice.

Seeing that he was holding the business card and looking at it, Long Shen couldn't help but ask, "Are you really making up an excuse to get close to me?"

Winter Solstice shook his head: "Has anyone done this before?"

Long Shen hummed: "Of course, with my charm, there are quite a few men and women who have done this, and you are the only one I have taken!"

Solstice: "Then I should be honored?"

Long Shen showed a wicked smile and said half-truth, "No need, just let me do it!"

Although he said this, he didn't do anything to force the overlord to bow, and he went back and forth to buy water and food for the winter solstice.

The winter solstice suddenly said: "Do you believe it, in addition to people with the same name and surname as He Yu, there are people with the same name and surname as you?"

Long Shen: "What's so strange about this?"

Solstice: "I will know them, also on a train."

This story is very long. It starts from the train bound for Changchun. The appearance of Long Shen is like the brightest star in the night sky, leading him to see the vast and vast universe.

Perhaps the story is bizarre but attractive. Long Shen sat opposite him and didn't interrupt him. When he heard that he had been bowed down and his death was approaching, Long Shen finally said, "He accepted the confession. I don't accept you because I sympathize with you."

Winter Solstice: "How do you know?"

Long Shen laughed: "A man's intuition! You are also a man, you are a fan of the authorities, of course you can't feel it! With the character of the person you said, it is impossible to fall in love with anyone because of sympathy."

Winter Solstice smiled: "Yes, so I figured it out later."

Long Shen asked again, "What happened later?"

Winter Solstice: "Afterwards, we went to Southeast Asia to find the initiator who gave me the head down and deal with each other. At this time, the main messenger of the conspiracy who had been hiding behind the scenes gradually surfaced. He went to Japan, and I went to the United States, Participate in the World Communication Conference."

Long Shen: "Your story is too long, and readers will definitely run away."

Winter Solstice smiled and said, "But, aren't you still listening?"

Long Shen took out a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket and wanted to light it. He raised his eyes and saw the no-smoking sign in the car. He clicked his tongue and had to put everything back.

"That's when you ran into a patient audience, and then what?"

The Winter Solstice said: "Then, Otoyu Hatohiko is the person I told you before. In order to deal with him, Long Shen took the initiative to introduce demonic energy into his body, and then took the opportunity to use the four-image fixed star lamp to completely eliminate him. But Otoyu Before he died, Jiuyan had already set up a backhand to let people destroy the seal in Kunlun Mountain, break the eye of the formation, release the beast-suppressing phoenix under the formation, and completely open the passage to the deep hell."

His voice became low unknowingly: "Everyone rushed to hear the news, worked hard for days and nights, and sacrificed many people, but the gap could not be bridged. In the end, he chose to absorb the magic energy, jumped into the abyss, and used his own strength. , to mend the breach and let others seal the passage. I went there just in time for the moment he died. The story is over."

Long Shen snorted coldly and attacked unceremoniously: "Stupid, I hate this kind of story of sacrificing myself to save the world! If I were him, I would never do such a stupid thing, obviously having the looks and ability, hugging my little lover Isn't it bad to live a happy little life, why do you have to die?"

Winter Solstice: "If he doesn't do this, the demons and demons under the abyss and hell will flood into the world. When the world falls, no one can be alone."

Long Shen sneered: "Then let's talk about it when the time comes, maybe before that, the crisis will be resolved. You also said that with so many people present, it's impossible not to use none of them, so why don't others sacrifice? It has to be his turn? It's Lao Tzu who has done so many things for the Special Administration Bureau, and he has already done his best and righteousness, and as a result, he can't even get a full-time director, who will stay? I think it's better for you to change the ending!"

Winter Solstice: "How to change?"

Long Shen raised Erlang's legs, raised his eyebrows and said, "Just end everything in Japan, let Otowa Hatohiko die under your Long Shen's hand, let Long Shen make a great contribution, and go back and be promoted to the chief director, how about it?"

Solstice shook his head.

"Then it's not him."

"It's boring!" Long Shen pouted, "It's a waste of time for your protagonist to have the same name as Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu is still here listening to you for a long time. If you don't listen to me, no one will read this kind of story!"

He grabbed the business card on the table again and stuffed it into Winter Solstice's hand.

"I bet you, if your story can be published in the future, I will invite you to dinner!"

Winter Solstice: "What if you can't?"

Long Shen: "Then, make an appointment?"

Winter Solstice couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Long Shen clicked his tongue twice: "It's alright if you laugh. You look hundreds of times better when you laugh than when you don't laugh. How about you? Do you want to think about it? Fantasy novelist?"

Winter Solstice: "I paint."

He took out the drawing board and pen and paper from his backpack, and said to Long Shen "don't move", the tip of the pen began to fly on the paper, Long Shen couldn't help but look at it, but when he saw that the other party had only a few pens, he put himself Looking sideways out the window, the scene outlined.

No coloring, no detailed description of light and shade, just a few rough drafts, Long Shen has already appeared on the paper.

"For you, thank you for listening to me tell a story." Dongzhi tore off the portrait and handed it to him.

Long Shen shook his head: "It's a good painting, but it's not me."

Winter Solstice was stunned: "It's you."

Long Shen: "What you drew is the Long Shen in your story, not me."

The winter solstice shook slightly.

He looked at Long Shen, and the other party also looked at him, it was rare to be quiet, and he was speechless for a long time.

"I think it's time for me to wake up."

This is another Long Shen, another life, maybe the beginning is very tempting, but it is definitely not what he wants.

Long Shen raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You should have woken up from your story! Let's get to know you again, my name is Long Shen, the owner of Long's Design Company, whose net worth is not yet on Forbes, but it is more than enough to support a small painter. , how are you, interested?"

"My master is not as talkative and provocative as you are. If I hadn't met him, I think I would have liked someone with your character more, but since it's already him, it must be only him."

The winter solstice pushed the business card in front of the other party, "Apart from him, any Long Shen can only be false. No matter how good the beginning is, I don't want it. It's time to end it all."

He reached into his collar and tore off the amulet that had been hanging around his neck.

This amulet was given to him by Long Shen. He wore it all the time. When the Long Shou Sword and Mingguang Talisman were not around, and when he met the completely different Long Shen and He Yu, there was a moment in the winter solstice that he really thought that everything was Just a long beautiful dream.

Until he found the amulet around his neck.

It was this amulet that gave him the belief to continue to deal with this world.

"Pro!"

With the sound of breaking the drink, the Winter Solstice's hands could not hold the Ming Wang seal, and the spell in his hand was thrown towards Longshen, but it automatically froze in the air.

In Long Shen's astonished eyes, the shape of the incantation became bigger and bigger, the light became stronger and stronger, and finally radiated to the entire space, covering all the sight in front of him.

Everything you can see is nothingness, and all sentient beings are disillusioned.

After an unknown amount of time, the light gradually faded away.

Winter Solstice Open your eyes.

In fact, he was also a little uneasy in his heart, for fear that what he saw was still that train, that Long Shen, that completely different story and beginning, and he no longer had the only proof that he had an intersection with Long Shen.

There was still a gray fog in his eyes, and pain came from below his knees. He looked down and saw the flowing black air gnawing at his clothes and skin.

It was a low-level monster called a sneaky yaksha, and it was encountered on the winter solstice.

Seeing these monsters, he breathed a sigh of relief, and touched back with his backhand, and his heart was even more delighted.

The long guard sword is still there!

Without hesitation, he drew his sword out of the sheath, and the sword light slashed at the monster with an indomitable momentum!

...

Long Shen's body trembled slightly.

On that half of the evil face, there was a hint of anger, and blood flowed from the corner of his eyes, which was terrifying.

The other half's face was still quiet and peaceful, with their eyes closed and speechless.

"That was originally a life shaped by his character and hobbies, why didn't he continue to walk?" Popeye said.

Long Shen finally opened his eyes and said slowly, "Because it's fake."

Popeye smiled: "What is true and what is false? What I gave him is also true, even if his body is eaten by monsters, his consciousness can stay in that world forever and finish that beautiful life. .I have never met a human who would reject my good intentions."

Long Shen also showed a faint smile.

"Because, he is the winter solstice."

...

Kunlun Mountains, Nalingele Canyon.

"It's been two days." Song Zhicun said.

Without his reminder, everyone realized this.

Zhangjiao sighed slowly, and with heavy fatigue, he said, "Seal the gap."

He Yu closed his eyes, he had no position to object, and could no longer object.

Everyone has persevered until the last moment, the formation is in jeopardy and can no longer be maintained, and Long Shen and the others have not come out, which means that their hope of seeing the sun again is minimal.

"Prepare, seal!" Song Zhicun gritted his teeth and said loudly.

Two days are his last bottom line, he must be responsible for the lives of everyone here, and even the safety of the entire world.

The jade plaque of Longhu Mountain has been delivered. As a guardian spirit weapon to replace the phoenix, it hangs in the center of the formation, and its brilliance circulates. With the activation of the formation, it completely "lives".The earth and the moon reflected in the sky, slowly falling again, and finally turned into a boulder, completely sealing the pit.
