Chapter 160 First Look
One day three years ago, a guest wearing a mask found me. Such monks are often seen in Xifang. They don't want to be remembered for their appearance. For monks with strange treasures, it is undoubtedly very stupid to expose themselves. I didn't know it was wrong until he told me his intention. He is not just an ordinary monk.
Chang Rui's tone slowed down several times. Although Chang Rui tried his best to cover it up, his weak soul form had betrayed him. Even if he appears in the form of a soul, there is not much time left for him. However, it can be seen that he hopes to answer Nie Yunyi's question as much as he can. After a person misses it, he often doesn't want to see others repeat his mistakes.
"You promised to give me unparalleled power, and he did it. In the past few years, my cultivation has made rapid progress. What I haven't done in the past few decades has undergone great changes in the last few years of my life, leaving Ximen Yuaner far behind. While I got this unknown power, I also vaguely felt its instability.
Chang Rui appeared in the form of soul, but he could still let the people present clearly see the expression on his face. It was a faint helplessness, as if he had seen through some post-post-openness. Even in the last stage of his life, he still maintained his pride, and the words "land" or the homeless dog could not be found in him at all.
"He came to me twice. The first time he gave me strong strength, and my strength has soared since then. The second time he came back, he transformed all the staff in my store. Although I couldn't see any changes from the appearance, I could clearly feel the active power in their bodies, which was exactly the same as the unknown force on me, but the density was a little lighter.
Speaking of this, Chang Rui paused, it's not that he didn't want to go on, but his continuous openings had consumed the little power left. Seeing that his shadow was a little pale, he looked like he could dry up at any time.
"Three years?" Nie Yun repeated this time point thoughtfully. Maybe three years is a long and tedious process for ordinary people, but it is absolutely nothing for monks. But when thinking of the blue water demon breaking out, the mysterious demon pretending to be Mao Qi, Nie Yun's contempt immediately fell down.
"Describe the man in the mask, and I want to know more about him." Nie Yunyi is not sure that the fake Maoqi is a masked man who has demonized Chang Rui. Both of them seem to be inextricably linked to the devil, and they both wear a mask. Although it is only a very ordinary detail, a detail can often determine the final outcome at critical times.
Frowning Chang Rui's mind jumped out of the man's appearance. He was a little thin and not very tall. When he spoke, his voice was slightly low. The most important thing was his wisdom. He seems to be able to see through everyone's inner world, grab out what you want, and then throw olive branches to ** you, so that you know that this may be a bottomless hole and you are willing to jump down. He was never excited or took the initiative to persuade you to join. After setting up attractive conditions, he did nothing and quietly waited for your reply. It seemed that he would not move whether you refused or not.
"Wise? This word appears on a demon, which is really bad news for the whole world of cultivation.
As we all know, demons are murderous and cruel, but their IQ is generally low. Except for a few high-level demons, other low-level demons even know how to kill blindly. Even if they have strong strength, the threat they pose in front of organized human monks is limited. However, giving a strength that is far more intelligent than ordinary people is equivalent to laying an unknown bomb. Its power may be just loosening the soil or destroying the whole world of cultivation.
Nie Yun has no time to think more deeply. Chang Rui has less and less time left, and the weak soul fire has been infinitely close to extinguishing, and more valuable information must be explored in a limited time. It's not that Nie Yunyi doesn't want to save Chang Rui, but that human life is sad that even if you have the ability to kill many people, you may not be able to save a person.
"Did he ask you anything? Pay attention to those people? Or use your identity to do something beneficial to him?" Nie Yun quickly sorted out his thoughts and tried to waste a minute and a second. This demon, which has been absolutely mysterious behind the scenes, has finally revealed some clues. Although it is only a vague outline, it has at least achieved some results for the human monks who have never had no clues and paid a considerable heavy price.
"No, I also doubted him. However, he has been doing it calmly. He told me at the beginning that once the power reached the point beyond my control, I might become a monster who only knows how to kill and completely lose my mind. When he came for the second time, he also brought a lot of elixirs, which generally improved the level of the staff in my store, making people feel that he was always paying and made it clear that the results were unpredictable. So even if he gives people a strong sense of mystery, I still accept the power he has given me without regret, which is enough to make me or the people around me doomed.
Speaking of this, Chang Rui smiled gently, with a smile with pity, self-deprecating, helplessness, and a deep sense of vicissitudes of life, and a sense of vicissitudes of life that has experienced the vicissitudes of life.
"What! He has made it clear to you at the beginning that the demonization is terrible, and you still accept his suggestion? Nie Yunyi exclaimed incredibly. He thought that Chang Rui was only bewitched by the demon and fell into the devil, but he didn't expect Chang Rui to choose to demonize when he was already aware of the serious consequences.
"How do you people with excellent talent or profound blessings know how I feel? You saved me, but I still said something, although these words may not sound good in your ears. I control the Zhenyao Pavilion. It looks beautiful before and after, but who knows my sadness? The talent is very ordinary, and even if you take a lot of elixir, you can only enter the foundation period. I want to live! So I want to improve my cultivation, otherwise everything that comes to me will have nothing to me. At this time, he appeared and gave me such a chance. Why should I say no?
A trace of self-deprecating flashed in Chang Rui's eyes. Perhaps there was nothing wrong with what he did. He risked his life to seek the opportunity to live. What right does others judge with some great principles and high standards?
"Now I have seen that there are still many things worth pursuing in this life. Whether it is a monk or a mortal, long or short period is not the final criterion, and a short life can also be wonderful. Perhaps only when you are very close to death will you realize it. If you give me another chance to come back, I may say no, but everyone has only one chance. Now that you have made a choice, you have to bear the consequences. I'm about to be out of my mind, but I don't complain, because it's all because of my obsession.
Nie Yunyi was silent. Was Chang Rui wrong? For others, it was a big mistake, but for himself, it was just a chance. The phrase "people are not for themselves, heaven and earth are destroyed" has been circulating for many years, but many people despise it but do not know that they are also deeply involved in it.
"Well, let's go. Whether you are an ordinary person or a monk in your next life, I hope you can live a happier life." There is only a faint flame left in Chang Rui's soul fire, which will be extinguished in ten breaths. Nie Yunyi has given up the idea of continuing to ask. The cunning demon can't leave too many clues. The inquiry is over here.
"Thank you."
This is the last sentence left by Chang Rui. At the moment before his soul dissipated, he turned his eyes to Lin He, who had been silent on the side. He felt that the young man had sent him to Shu Mountain so that he could still see this long and famous mountain in his lifetime. The sadness in his eyes was gone, replaced by a kind of detachment and put down all obsessions. At this moment, immortals or demons, good or evil have nothing to do with him. He is as pure as a newborn baby, leaving thousands of distracting thoughts, integrating into the surrounding woods and dissipating invisible.
When Lin He heard Chang Rui's thank you, his heart couldn't help moving, which was only when he was suddenly invaded by emotions. Lin He couldn't tell what it was like, and reluctantly classified it into the "shocking" ranks. There was nothing in front of him. There was nowhere to find the traces of Chang Rui in this world, but Lin He clearly remembered Chang Rui's last look, clear and pure eyes.
"He left and walked cleanly." Somehow, Lin He suddenly felt a little sad. He didn't have much contact with Chang Rui. What he heard today was also the longest thing Chang Rui said. However, Lin He still felt sad for this stranger who was just familiar. What he said was also a pun, and the traceless dissipation was clear, and the state of mind he felt when he left was also extremely pure.
Nie Yun nodded thoughtfully, as if asking an old friend to deliver a letter. Although he was very ruthless and did not leave Chang Rui time to ask questions, for Nie Yunyi, Chang Rui's last words were also profound, and Nie Yunyi, who had lived for hundreds of years, did not necessarily understand what was shown.
"Why are you two in a daze! The devil is about to hit the door. Do the serious things first and then go in a daze! Damn Taoist priest and Lin He, you are the hope of revitalizing the fairyland. Hurry up and cheer up.
It's not easy for him to be an audience for so long with the character of the immortal in the book. Now seeing the sad face of Nie Yunyi and Lin He, the immortal in the book immediately showed an impulsive personality and scolded them well. At present, time is human life, which is not enough to give the two of them a long sigh.
