Yu Wu

Chapter 194 Juntong

When Mo Xi woke up from the dizziness, he found himself in darkness.

He opened his eyes, and the dull pain in his chest was like a sharp awl piercing his heart. In front of him was the face of Gu Mang at the last moment, stained with blood and tears, but looking at him with a smile.

He closed his eyes, hot tears streaming down his cheeks.

——However, his work was not finished yet.In order to open up this road, Gu Mang had already sacrificed his flesh and bones. Now that Gu Mang had passed away, he wanted to fulfill this unfulfilled wish for his lover.

Even if he was already in pain.

His throat was throbbing, he swallowed infinite bitterness, and slowly sat up from the ground.

Yes, it's not over, it's not the end.

Gu Mang is gone, but Chonghua still has him, Kyushu still has him, as long as he is still alive, Gu Mang will not leave completely.He will take over Gu Mang's embers until he is also buried on this road.

He looked around slowly with red eyes.The sky and the earth here are boundless, and this place is like the chaos when Pan Gu was unopened.The place where he was lying was like the surface of water, but it would not sink, like the surface of ice, but there were always ripples.

He lowered his head and saw his own reflection in the lake water, but it was strange, there were a few purple-black fragments of light floating around his reflection, and those black lights continuously drifted away from his heart, but quickly disappeared.In addition, there is a huge, indistinct silver-white light and shadow moving.

He couldn't see what it was, he only knew that it was extremely huge, and its outline was a bit like his mighty Tuntian.

"That is indeed your weapon, the mighty Swallow the Heavens."

Suddenly, a majestic and solemn voice sounded behind him.Mo Xi turned his head suddenly, and saw a man in white clothes standing at the end of the darkness.The man was handsome and tall, with an awe-inspiring and inviolable aura, surrounded by an elegant fairy mist, which made his face blurry, and he could only vaguely see that his facial features were deep and his skin was as cold as jade. He was an extremely heroic man .

Mo Xi was startled, wondering why he could see through his own mind.

He couldn't help asking: "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer.

Mo Xi got up and walked towards him, only to find that no matter how many steps he took, the man would always keep his distance from him at this moment, as if he couldn't get close no matter what.

Mo Xi's mood was gloomy, and he didn't want to dwell on it, so he stopped in his tracks and asked, "Where is this?"

This time the man answered, he said: "You are in this reversal stone. The universe inside this stone has nothing to do with the six realms, it is another world."

Mo Xi closed his eyes, suppressed the throbbing pain in his forehead, and gritted his teeth, "Are you the god in charge of this stone?"

"Forget it, you don't have to ask about my identity, I'm just a ray of spiritual power of the true god, stationed in this reversal stone. Who is my real body, it doesn't mean anything to you."

There is a god here.

But Mo Xi had no reverence for the gods because of this accident, so facing the God of Reversal Stone, he just said coldly: "I have nothing to say with you, let me go back."

The god shook his head and said, "You still can't go out."

Mo Xi was extremely sad and angry, and said sharply: "What else do you want?!"

The spiritual power of the god didn't mind his collision, it just seemed to be looking at him sadly, and didn't seem to have much emotion.After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Mo Xi, you don't have to hate me so much, your destiny is not under my control, and I am only the spiritual power left in the stone by the true god. Since you have completed the destiny of the reversal stone, I also Then there is an explanation, you are actually kind to me."

"Grateful..." The two words stopped between his teeth, and finally rolled into a sneer. Mo Xi's eyes were red and bloodshot, and he said hoarsely, "Okay. You can repay the favor and stop all of this. Gu Mang is also fine. Whether it's Lu Zhanxing, or those unknown soldiers that no one remembers... Too many people have died in the past few hundred years."

He looked at the faint phantom of the god: "If you are a god, you should have seen it already."

"……Yes."

"Then why don't you end it!! What's the difference between you standing on the sidelines and a demon!!"

The spirit of the gods closed his eyes, and seemed unwilling to answer at first, but after a while of silence, he still said: "Mo Xi, the gods cannot save people, they can only light the lamp and people can save themselves. And at this time, I call you to this reversal stone." In Heaven and Earth, I want to tell you that all of this is coming to an end. There is only one last step left."

"Hua Poan has lived in the world for hundreds of years. He has merged with the devil and is no longer a living person. I went back to the past to destroy the power of the blood monster, but in the end I was told that there is no such thing as a reversal stone. Function—you tell me, how should we save ourselves?”

He pressed questions step by step, and the gods listened to every word.

Finally, this piece of divine spiritual power sighed and said, "I know you have resentment and hatred in your heart, so I won't persuade you much, but..."

He paused, and said to Mo Xi: "Hua Poyan is not invincible, his ability is tied to the blood monster, and I called you here to tell you the way to break his monster's power. "

Mo Xi remained silent, gritted his teeth and endured endless anger: "...Okay. Tell me."

"The trick is," said the god, "you need to know what happened in your own past."

Mo Xi was stunned: "My own past?"

The god flicked his wide sleeves, pointed at the windless lake surface, and said, "Yes. The Reversal Stone can illuminate a person's soul. Your body is like a container, carrying all the things you have suffered in this life. All the ups and downs, all the love and hate you've got—here, right under your feet, everything can be reflected."

Mo Xi looked down again.

Reflection means himself.

Whale Phantom, representing his most powerful weapon.

But what is the black air that overflows from the chest and disappears in an instant?

"That's the demonic Gu that Murong Chen planted in your body before."

When he said this, Mo Xi remembered that this should be the manipulation Gu that Mengze tried to get rid of.On the day of forcing the palace to the Golden Luan Hall, Murong Mengze once said that when she rescued Mo Xi who was seriously injured by Gu Mang in the water battle in Dongting, she discovered this curse, and secretly pulled it out behind Murong Chen's back.

For this reason, her spiritual core was completely damaged, and she could no longer cast any slightly more powerful spells.

His thoughts and thoughts seemed to be projected into the eyes of the gods verbatim.

The god said: "You are wrong. The demonic Gu was never removed by Murong Mengze."

Mo Xi raised his head suddenly: "What?"

The spirit of the gods repeated: "The demonic Gu was never removed by Murong Mengze."

"..."

"The person who actually pulled out the Gu for you cut open your chest and released your curse. But he was in the enemy camp at the time. First, Murong Chen couldn't let Murong Chen find out that he had done such a thing. Second, he He also can't stay alone with you for too long under the eyes of the people of Liao Kingdom, so he can only do otherwise, discuss with Murong Mengze and ask her to keep the secret."

Mo Xi only felt the blood flow from his whole body to his head. There was a buzzing in his head, his fingers were trembling, and he murmured, "You said... what?"

"Dongting Water Battle, Gu Mang stabbed you in the chest for no reason."

"!!"

"During the process of spying on Liao, he realized that Murong Chen had done something wrong to you, so he deliberately led you to the battleship during that battle, and stabbed you until you were seriously injured and unconscious."

"After you woke up, what you saw was Murong Mengze who came to help and took you back to the barracks, and healed your wounds at the cost of her spirit core shattering. But the truth is..." Shenming paused, He said, "After you fell into a coma, it was Gu Mang who took you in the darkroom of the battleship and pulled out the poison for you. It was he who deliberately let Murong Mengze enter the siege—and handed you over to her."

Mo Xi's face was as pale as snow, and his blood froze into ice.

what……?

"Gu Mang knows exactly what kind of person Murong Mengze is. She has never been simple, ambitious, and resourceful. Although she is also a cold-blooded and ruthless emperor, she is at least not as crazy as her brother. Gu Mang also knows that, You are a great help to Murong Mengze, she wished she could do everything possible to win you over, so she will definitely accept this kindness given to her for nothing, even if it is dangerous."

Mo Xi felt like his throat was frozen. After a long time, he heard an extremely hoarse voice speaking. The voice was so unfamiliar that for a moment, he didn't realize that the person who spoke was himself.

He asked: "So...the so-called life-saving grace...was...it was never Mengze...it was Gu Mang who asked her to replace her...?"

"He has to do this." Shenming said, "He hopes to gain your hatred, hopes that you will be protected by Murong Mengze, and also hopes that you will not be controlled by Murong Chen in the future. He has no other choice."

"...so Mengze... her spirit core has always been..."

"Yes. She has never been injured. She is a medicine cultivator and the head of Shennongtai. It is easy for her to fake a weak illusion. There are only two people in this world who know her secret, and one is herself. One is Gu Mang." The god said calmly, "This is also the reason why she sent Zhou He to use evil methods during the interrogation, seeing that Gu Mang's memory was about to recover, in order to prevent Gu Mang from regaining his memory."

Mo Xi was even more shocked: "Zhou He was also instructed by her?!"

"Yes, Zhou He is Mengze's party member and her friend. You are right. The person who has been trying to prevent Gu Mang from recovering is Murong Mengze."

"..."

"She knows that your gratitude is an important pawn to her, and she is not sure whether Gu Mang will tell you the truth because of the passage of time when he recalls the past, so she is eager to provoke Gu Mang and make him go berserk, Lost his mind again. As long as he is stupid, no one else in the world will know the secret of her saving your life."

Mo Xi murmured: "Impossible... She... She obviously has so many opportunities to attack... But she has been patiently taking care of Gu Mang, and even gave me directions, telling me to go to Lin'an to find Daxiu..."

"Guide the way?" The Spirit of the Gods sneered, "Your heart is naive. You don't know that the Yue family incident actually saved Gu Mang once. Because according to Murong Mengze's plan, Gu Mang's mind will be lost After you find the 'overhaul', it will be completely destroyed."

"!"

Facing Mo Xi's astonished eyes, the god calmly said, "Mo Xi, do you think she will let something happen to Gu Mang while she is taking care of him?"

"Murong Mengze has made several attacks before and after. The first time was to assassinate Murong Lian. The second time was to tell Gu Mang the truth about the Oath of Heavenly Tribulation when he was recuperating in the treatment room. In the second plan, She caused Gu Mang to collapse and run away, and she was almost successful, but your appearance prevented Gu Mang from falling any further. If she was eager for success at this time and let Gu Mang fall ill in her hands, would you not Is it possible to suspect her?"

"..."

"So..." Mo Xi's heart was suffocated, it wasn't anger anymore, but endless coldness and exhaustion, he murmured, "If we go to the deep suburbs of Lin'an, we won't be able to find a real overhaul... "

"Yes. There will only be one monk disguised as herself, waiting for you to fall into the trap."

Hearing this, Mo Xi was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but looked up and smiled wryly.

Mengze... Mengze...she...she actually has her own game of chess?

It turns out that the emperor's power tactics, nobles' disputes, intrigues, and looking back half a lifetime, everyone has their own plans, and everything is fake.

Is a throne and power really that important?It is worth putting a lifetime of hard work and everyone's sincerity into it.

He suddenly felt that all this was so ridiculous.

How many faces around him have he really seen clearly over the years?

Is such a life full of tricks really worth it...

"Mo Xi, you shouldn't think so. What is not worth it to you is worth it to Murong Chen and Murong Mengze." The god said, "You are too honest and straightforward, but Gu Mang is A person who is too ideal, people like you are easy to become saints, but it is not easy to become kings."

Mo Xi closed his eyes, and murmured wearily: "Murong Mengze wants to be king..."

"No. She wants much more than being a Chonghua lord. It's just that the sky doesn't give her her life, so she will take it by herself. Since ancient times, there have been few pure and clean people for a king. She is indeed ruthless. , but—" He paused, "For a monarch, the most important thing is whether the country can be governed properly, and the others are not so important. These words are cruel and feel unfair, but there are thousands of people. On the surface, everyone has their own strengths, right or wrong, what I can say is that if this person controls a country, he will be more suitable than Murong Chen, Murong Lian, Gu Mang, and you."

"..."

The god once again paused for a moment, and then said: "Okay, now you know everything..." He flicked his clothes and looked at him through the misty cold mist, "Mo Xi, after you go back, do you want to go back?" Looking for revenge on her?"

If it were three years ago, or five years ago, everything in Mo Xi's heart was clear in black and white, with clear love and dislike.It seems that everything in the world can have a fair ending of right and wrong.

But now, he knows that there are actually many unsatisfactory things in this world, and the good and evil are unknown.

But at the same time, his Senior Brother Gu also guided him, telling him that no matter how others are, whether their fate is unfair or not, what people need to be worthy of most is their own heart.

Even if it is severe cold, frost and snow, and everything is silent, there are also cold plums fighting snow and pines and cypresses facing the wind.

Fame, fortune, suffering, eternal night, and even death do not change their minds, this is the way to achieve oneself.

The gods waited for a while, and seeing that Mo Xi didn't answer, they didn't ask further questions, but pointed to the lake again——

"If you think about it, you don't have to answer me. Whether you want revenge or not, you go back to Chonghua, and after meeting her, you will have to make up your own mind. Let me tell you the second key thing."

"……what?"

"Look at the Tuntian in the lake, the shadow of Tuntian is projected in your reflection, do you feel strange?"

Mo Xi said: "Tun Tian is my martial arts, so I can naturally take care of it..."

"Then why didn't Shuran appear?"

Mo Xi was startled when he heard the words, and raised his eyes.

The spirit of the gods said lightly: "Have you ever thought about why Tuntian has such an ability to move mountains and fill seas, even more violent than ordinary martial arts?"

"..."

Seeing that Mo Xi didn't answer, the god said: "Actually, swallowing the sky is not an ordinary martial art."

Mo Xi opened his eyes wide in astonishment: "!"

"You already know that your predecessor in Chonghua wanted to follow the forbidden technique left by Shen Tang to refine a fairy beast that could fight against the blood monster—everyone thought he had failed, and the old gentleman thought so too . But that’s not the truth.”

Gently flicking the robes of the gods, Shen He said: "The people who participated in the smelting of immortals and beasts, Murong Lian's father, Zhou He's father... Some of them have always been in the same heart with Laojun, while others have seen In front of the black magic method, Laojun, in fact, the power of self-control is gradually being eroded, and one of them is your father."

Mo Xi was shocked!

"Back then, the holy beast had already been refined successfully, but it had a spirit, and it only showed its power in front of people it recognized, so other people thought that they failed to refine it. That was not true, but they did not pass the test of the fairy beast Peeping, I didn’t know that it had been successfully bred into a bead. And your father, Mo Qingchi...he is the only one who has been recognized by the fairy beast."

"The fairy beast only appeared in front of him and recognized him as its master. It also sadly predicted to its owner that he would die in a battle in the near future, and his family would be in chaos—and the only one who could There is only the most powerful magic power to protect his son from bullying - and that is itself."

Mo Xi couldn't help but took a step back: "What..."

"I know you will be surprised. But the truth is like this. Mo Xi, after your father learned that he was going to die soon, he sealed the fairy beast spirit orb in your body, making it recognize you as its master. Protect you from growing up safely. Otherwise, why were you born with such extraordinary talent and powerful strength? Your ability is far above the geniuses of the sky, and it is simply abnormal."

Mo Xi shivered slightly, recalling all the past, as well as the ability of killing millions of corpses that he had been suppressing, his fingertips became colder and colder.

"You think Tuntian is the divine martial arts you summoned after your enlightenment, no." The god said, "That's the soul of a fairy beast left to you by Mo Qingchi. Your powerful spiritual power also comes from it. "

The god stared at Mo Xi's eyes, and said word by word:

"The holy beast has been sealed in your body."

"!!"

"So the only person in the world who can completely eliminate the blood monster... is you."

Mo Xi's face was no longer bloodless.

He stared blankly at the God of Reversal Stone, and after the god finished speaking, the fairy mist around him became more and more misty, soaking his figure even more blurred, and his voice became empty and distant, as if the gods were separated from each other. Mountains, rivers, lakes and seas.

"Mo Xi... The Reversal Stone chose you, so it was no accident. Next, I will undo the seal of swallowing the sky in your body, and you will completely possess the power of a holy fairy beast, which can rival the power of a blood monster."

"And you, you will also have two choices - after you go out, you can choose to seek revenge on Murong Mengze, you have the spirit body of a fairy beast by your side, kill her, embrace the city as the king, and then use the sky-swallowing barrier Protect Chonghua City, the blood of the blood monsters will swallow up the entire Kyushu, but it will not harm Chonghua City. You can stay safe."

"However, you can also choose to dive into the depths of the blood sea after awakening Tuntian. There, you will sense the heart of the blood monster there. As long as you offset your spiritual power with it, you can destroy it, blood pool It will turn into an ordinary lake, and Hua Poyin will also lose his source of power and become an ordinary person who can be defeated. Kyushu will be protected, but..."

The god paused for a moment, and said in a voice like a bell:

"You will die together with the blood demon beast, and you will never be reincarnated from reincarnation."

Mo Xi listened, it was such a cruel thing, but he didn't think it was too heavy.

He was the one who had just broken Gu Mang's soul, and he had experienced such ups and downs. For him at this moment, nothing in the past seemed to hurt him more.

The fairy mist around the god is misty, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.After a long while, he seemed to sigh softly, and then said to Mo Xi: "These two roads... No one can force you. As I said, gods don't redeem people, they only light lamps, and people save themselves. The same , the gods will not force you to make a choice. Which way to go, you choose yourself..."

After he finished speaking, he disappeared in the cold mist.Immediately afterwards, a powerful repulsive force pushed Mo Xi violently, and the darkness in this space suddenly disintegrated into countless crystal and chaotic fragments, which fluttered and fell before Mo Xi's eyes.

He saw his past thirty years flickering in these fragments, saw the Moqing Pond standing under the laurel tree when he was a child, his father stretched out his armored hand to him, and said to him with a smile: "Little Fireball, why are you here?"

He saw the first time he saw Jiang Yexue, a gentle and modest child standing quietly by the Que platform, talking to his mother, after being instructed by his mother, Jiang Yexue turned around and said to him: "Hello, my name is Yue Yexue, are you the young master of Mo Mansion?"

He saw Murong Lian bullying Gu Mang in every possible way in the academy, but at the time he didn't know that deep down in Murong Lian's heart, apart from jealousy and hatred towards Gu Mang, there was still a slight concern for blood.

He saw Murong Chuyi walking down the veranda alone and coldly, and thought that this person was as ruthless as the rumors said, but later he realized that Murong Chuyi's heart was actually hidden with a gentleness like rivers and lakes.

Then, on the day he and Gu Mang broke up, on the deck of the Dongting water battle, Gu Mang was dressed in black, holding a bayonet and a falcon, walking towards him in the scorching smoke.

At that time, Gu Mang wore the Chonghua Hero Scarf snatched from the dead body on his forehead. He thought it was Gu Mang's humiliation to the martyrs, but he didn't know that it was Gu Mang's reluctance to Chonghua.

At that time, Gu Mang opened and closed his thin lips, and said to him coldly: "When you are a general and a soldier, and you are born as a human being, you can't be too nostalgic."

But later he knew that Gu Mang never forgot 3 monuments, [-] people, one country, and Kyushu City every moment he was in Liao Kingdom.

He once resented Gu Mang for being cold-blooded and ruthless, and refused to turn back.

In fact, Gu Mang had never betrayed them and went to another road, he just walked alone, going forward to overcome obstacles and open a bloody road for those who came after him.

He thought it was Gu Mang who cut his heart and Mengze saved his life, but it turned out...

Mo Xi slowly closed his eyes, bitterness and sadness burned in his chest like wildfire, burning to the bottom of his heart, his eyes were wet and red.The entire world of Reversing Stone collapsed, and the voices and smiles of countless old people, intrigues and intrigues came towards him like a torrent of destruction, and he was pushed out of this world by this huge force.

The words of God of Reversal Stone are still ringing in his ears.

Is it revenge to embrace the city, or to plunge into the sea of ​​blood.

——"These two paths, you can choose for yourself..."

Through the thin closed eyelids, Mo Xi could feel that the sky was gradually brightening. He didn't open his eyes, but he could already hear the cries of women and children in the city, the sounds of soldiers encouraging each other, the sound of fighting, the tide Voices……

He understood that he was back, and returned to the battlefield six years later.

He even heard someone shouting in the distance: "Transfer the soldiers from the left battalion to reinforce Jiang Yaoshi!"

"Hua Poyan is crazy!!"

He knew that Jiang Fuli had already gone to fight Hua Poan. Although Jiang Fuli insisted that he was not Shen Tang, he carried all of Shen Tang's memories and thoughts from yesterday, and once again came to the battle against the Liao Kingdom. Before.

Gu Mang said that everyone has something to accomplish.

Those things may seem very difficult, cruel, meaningless, and the loss outweighs the gain. It may seem that there are others who can replace them, and they don't have to charge forward by themselves.

Many people will think, forget it, my life is like a mayfly, I only want to be chic and happy, no one is willing to be this hero.

But there will always be someone who will stand up, let go of those personal grievances and hatreds, and think, forget it, my life is like a mayfly, but as long as I can do something to make this world, this country, and this street more peaceful , that is also good.

Gu Mang, Murong Chuyi, Jiang Fuli, Mo Qingchi...

They all chose this narrow road, which may be ridiculed as stupid.

But at this moment, Mo Xi knew that they were all waiting for his return at the end of this road.

He opened his eyes.

The lingering illusion in front of him disappeared, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he found that he had returned to the Nuan Pavilion where he was before, and Jiang Fuli was indeed no longer here.

Outside the window, another dawn has arrived, and the clouds are as strong as blood.He raised his eyes and saw Chonghua's soldiers in the distance once again refused to accept their fate and fought against Liao's iron army among the clouds.And the river of blood demons where Gu Mang died has been pushed under the warm pavilion of the palace.

He walked out of the pavilion, facing the brilliant and dazzling glow, standing in the newborn morning sun.

His slender fingers caressed the railing, and he stood against the wind, looking at the broken and chaotic rivers and mountains, he suddenly understood the so-called destiny - that destiny is not predestined, but destiny is destined to give people countless trials, hatred Confused, confused, misunderstood... There are very few people who can swim to the other shore they expected at first.

He looked down at the billowing plasma rushing past, finally threw down the exhausted reversal stone, and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, I will choose the same path as you."

"You wait for me, I'll come with you."
