Chapter 39 Chapter 38 The Abyss

According to the legend, this world was originally dark, but 48,000 years later, there was a giant god Pangu who opened up the world and transformed mountains and rivers; According to legend, the first light between heaven and earth was born in the darkest place. Zhang Xiaofan only felt that his whole body was so cold, the cold penetrated to the bone marrow, such a kind of cold, as if not only his body, but even his heart was cold, he felt like he was about to die. But he didn't feel scared, not even the slightest bit of fear, but he felt tired like never before, and he didn't even have the strength to open his eyes.Strangely, when his body was extremely sleepy and weak, his mind gradually became clear.

It seemed that there was something surrounding him, very gentle and careful, but cold as ice, slowly sucking the heat from his body, and at the same time carrying a strange sense of comfort, one couldn't help but think that it was just like this Sleep comfortably. If not, in his right hand, there is a familiar and cold aura rising up as if guarding his master; if not, he suddenly felt that in his left hand, there is still a cold and soft hand . In his drowsiness, he opened his eyes one by one with difficulty! It was a ray of light in eternal darkness! In the endless and boundless darkness, only in front of Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, a little light lighted up quietly, it was a faint, white light, it floated in the darkness, wrapped around Zhang Xiaofan, like the most gentle Woman, hold your beloved lover and be so lingering with him.

It was like a puff of light smoke, with some emptiness, in mid-air, beside Zhang Xiaofan, a beautiful and desolate face gradually turned into a kiss towards the young man's lips! Between those lips, there is a faint fragrance, a little distraction, and there is only coldness left! The coldness of the heart! The fire stick jumped up suddenly, the blue light blocked Zhang Xiaofan's body, the beauty's face transformed into the white light like light smoke seemed to be a little afraid of this, and he had no choice but to back away.Zhang Xiaofan's body trembled, he turned over and stood up, then he felt overwhelmed and screamed: "Yin Ling!"

According to ancient legends, life is old and dead, only the soul is immortal. When one life dies, the soul will leave the body and go to the next life, life after life, endless cycle.However, in the world, there are resentful spirits. Because of the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance, and because of fear, evil, and fear of fear, they are attached to the world, look back on the past, and do not want to be reborn. They are "yin spirits". It is taken for granted that ghosts are ghosts, and they naturally like to live in damp places. This Necromancer Abyss is dark and damp, so it is not surprising that there are such ghosts.But Zhang Xiaofan has never seen such a thing in his life, when he was a child in Caomiao Village, he heard the adults say that there are ghosts in this world, and later on the Big Bamboo Peak, he heard his brothers say that it is called ghosts, he felt a little afraid, this time When I saw it suddenly, I was really chilled from head to toe.

His call was only transmitted far away in the darkness. In the darkness around him, his voice seemed light and ethereal. After a long time, there was a faint echo.Also following his call, as if something had been alarmed, in the darkness around him, it lighted up silently again. Zhang Xiaofan only felt his heart beating, and then it was as if the heart in his chest had stopped. He held his breath, and saw a beam of faint white light that was almost exactly the same as the ghost just now, shining brightly in the darkness in front of him. . Then, the left side lit up, the right side lit up, the front side lit up, and the back side lit up. Even when he looked up, even the top of his head lit up, and that faint white light flashed.

There are actually countless ghosts, as if awakened from a long slumber, feeling the warmth of the human body that appeared for the first time in hundreds of years, gathered here. The bursts of smoke-like white light drifted erratically, turning into countless faces, male or female, old or young, beautiful or ugly, but at this moment, in Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, there was only one feeling: coldness. Thinking of the scene of countless Yin spirits swarming up and surrounding him, his scalp became numb.But fortunately, after the initial horror, he immediately discovered that these ghosts seemed to be quite afraid of the fire stick in front of him, not daring to get close to the dark blue light emitted by the fire stick.But before Zhang Xiaofan heaved a sigh of relief, those ghosts floating in mid-air seemed to have discovered something again, and they all flew to Zhang Xiaofan's left.

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, then lost color, the soft hand he held in his left hand was gradually getting cold at this moment.He hastily pulled hard, there was a sound of water, Lu Xueqi was pulled to his side, relying on the dim light around him, Zhang Xiaofan could only see Lu Xueqi's face was pale, her eyes were closed tightly, but when she checked her breathing, she was still normal, so he took a rough look , She didn't seem to have suffered any trauma on her body, so she felt relieved, looked around, and carefully observed the surrounding environment. He and Lu Xueqi, who was still in a coma, were somehow at the edge of a bay of water at this moment, and they couldn't see the size of the water clearly in the dark, and they didn't know if it was a small pool, or a big lake, or the legendary huge deep underground sea.Zhang Xiaofan didn't know why he suddenly had this thought, but he was in the water, but he felt that the surface of the water was not static, there were wave after wave of the tide, like gentle hands caressing his body.

However, the water is really cold to the bone! Zhang Xiaofan stood up with difficulty, if he stays any longer, even if he is not harmed by these ghosts, the two of them will freeze to death in the water first.As soon as he stood up straight, he felt dizzy for a while, and his body couldn't help shaking. When he was on the platform, he was hit on the back by the elder brother, the wild dog Taoist, and Liu Hao at the same time, and the injuries were really serious.At the same time, the dark blue light of the fire stick dimmed a little as if it had been sensed.Almost at the same moment, the dim lights of countless ghosts around him lit up at the same time, and the faces that turned into human beings revealed infinite desire.

Zhang Xiaofan was taken aback, he quickly calmed down, the light of the fire stick came back on, shaking those ghosts.Zhang Xiaofan struggled to pull Lu Xueqi to the shore, this short distance made him feel so long. Finally, they reached the hard ground, Zhang Xiaofan sat on the ground all of a sudden, gasping for breath. Around, countless Yin spirits danced and wandered outside the dark blue light circle of the fire stick. Zhang Xiaofan stared blankly at those wandering lights, recalled the last memory in his mind before he fell into a coma, remembered Lu Xueqi flying over and holding his hand, remembered the boundless and endless dark abyss beneath them when they fell, he even He vaguely remembered that before he lost consciousness, a familiar Buddha's name rang on that platform.

That should be Brother Faxiang and the four of them arriving. Zhang Xiaofan said this in his heart, with the help of the four of them, plus Qi Hao and Zeng Shushu's own Taoism practice, it should be fine.If Senior Brother Qi is fine, Senior Sister Ling'er will not be sad, right? But, but, Zhang Xiaofan asked himself almost at the same time, if I die, will Senior Sister Linger be sad?Maybe she will also be a little sentimental, after all these years, I have been with her day and night, and I know that this senior sister who looks beautiful and strong actually has a gentle and weak side in her heart.

If she heard that Junior Brother Zhang Xiaofan, who had been playing games since she was a child, died unfortunately, she would definitely shed some tears, right?It must be hurt too, right?Surely they will build a grave for him on the top of Dazhu Peak even if the body cannot be found? I don't know how many times she will come to the grave in the future? If that was the case, would I be like the ghosts around here, yearning for her, unwilling to die, just lingering in the grave, quietly looking forward to the figure in my memory. In the silent darkness, the young man sighed in a low and unknown way! ※※※ "Alas". She uttered a soft call, slowly woke up, and opened her eyes. For thousands of years, there was an ancient question: If you wake up after a long sleep, who would be the first person you want to see? No one knows whether Lu Xueqi has ever heard this seemingly boring question, but at this moment, what is reflected in her eyes is Zhang Xiaofan's concerned eyes in the faint white light. That is the only warmth in the darkness! Zhang Xiaofan was overjoyed, and said joyfully, "You're awake, Senior Sister Lu!" Lu Xueqi didn't answer right away, she seemed to be stunned for a while, but soon, she returned to normal, and her face returned from a little bewildered at first to a somewhat indifferent frost.But as she looked around, she couldn't help being moved again. "Yin Ling!" Lu Xueqi called out just like Zhang Xiaofan just now. Zhang Xiaofan nodded, and comforted her: "Yes, but don't be afraid, they seem to be a little afraid of my burning stick, they should be fine for the time being." Lu Xueqi also found at this moment that the countless ghosts floating around did not pounce, but only wandered around the periphery, seeming to be very afraid of Zhang Xiaofan's short black stick, after she settled down, she couldn't help but said: "What is your magic weapon called, why is it so sharp?" Zhang Xiaofan blushed, said: "Call, call, I call it... a fire stick, and I don't know how it can be so powerful." Lu Xueqi wondered: "Fire stick?" Zhang Xiaofan looked at the woman in front of him in the faint white light, her skin was like snow, although a little pale but even more beautiful, he lowered his head involuntarily, and said: "Yes, I usually cook on the Big Bamboo Peak, I use it for cooking Firestick." Lu Xueqi was speechless for a while, staring blankly at the ugly black short stick in mid-air, and said in a low voice after a long while: "Fire stick! I have a mentor to teach, I practiced hard, and I have Tianya Divine Sword, but I was defeated. Under a stick of fire?" Zhang Xiaofan's heart skipped a beat suddenly, he felt that Lu Xueqi's face turned paler at this moment, she could hardly see the slightest trace of blood, and couldn't help but said: "Senior Sister, you won at that time, and, I heard that if it wasn't for you You lost too much vitality when you competed with me, and you may not necessarily lose to Senior Brother Qi Hao in the final..." The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and in the end he gradually became silent, because Lu Xueqi silently raised her head and looked at him coldly, which made him unable to speak any more.A faint white light shone on the figures of the two of them. Lu Xueqi lowered her head again, took a deep breath, and said, "How did we escape by chance?" Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a while, feeling rather confused, said: "I don't know." Then he remembered something, pointed to the edge of the bay, and said, "But when I just woke up, we were both lying there By the water, could it be that we fell into the water by chance and survived, and were washed to the shore by the tide?" Lu Xueqi looked in the direction he pointed, and against the faint white light emitted by the Yin Spirit, she saw water in the distance, and there was also the faint "rustling" sound of the tide washing against the shore.On the other hand, although the clothes on his body were mostly dry, they were still a little wet, and it was very cold against his body.It is conceivable that if Zhang Xiaofan hadn't pulled him ashore, he would have been frozen to death before he woke up. "Thank you very much." Lu Xueqi suddenly whispered. Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay..." Suddenly, both of them froze. Between the two people, between the hands of the two people, until now, they are still holding each other tightly. It was as if they were connected by flesh and blood, as if it had been like this for many years, and they didn't feel the slightest, as if it should be like this, as if both of them had forgotten it! Lu Xueqi withdrew her hand slowly, Zhang Xiaofan smiled awkwardly, swayed his hand left and right, but didn't know where to put it. After a while, it was still Lu Xueqi who said, "Before you fell, you were hit hard by a demon from the demon sect. How do you feel now?" If Zhang Xiaofan met Amnesty, he heard that the Bingshuang woman didn't seem to blame him, so he quickly said: "It's okay, it's okay." Lu Xueqi said: "Can you still control the sword?" Zhang Xiaofan felt a little bit of luck, he felt pain in his body like a needle prick, he smiled wryly and shook his head. Lu Xueqi glanced at him, and said: "I can't do it either. Let's get up and look around to see if there is a way out. Otherwise, if we keep doing this, we will be surrounded by these ghosts, and sooner or later we will be sucked up by them." Zhang Xiaofan took a deep breath, nodded and said: "Yes." Lu Xueqi stood up, checked her whole body, there was no major trauma, but her inner meridians, qi and blood were a bit messy, and her whole body was weak, it seemed that it was due to the strong counter-shock force from the fight with the Shanhe Fan.And the Tianya Excalibur she cared most about was returning to the scabbard on her back intact at this moment. She turned her head and glanced at Zhang Xiaofan again, but saw that he stood up with some difficulty, his figure was still not very flexible, obviously still troubled by his injury, and at the same time, he knew how much effort he had spent just now to pull himself out of the water strength. "What level has your Tai Chi Xuan Qing Tao practiced to?" Lu Xueqi suddenly asked Zhang Xiaofan. Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment and didn't speak, but Lu Xueqi thought that he didn't answer on purpose, she turned her head away, and said flatly: "It's okay if you don't say anything, but I heard Master said that you only reached the fourth level of cultivation, you were so weird that day At the time, I didn’t believe that the magic weapon is so powerful. I saw it with my own eyes today, if you hadn’t cultivated so well and your meridian foundation is solid, you would have fallen under the hands of those demon cultists long ago.” Zhang Xiaofan scratched his head, for a moment he didn't know what to say, because he himself was a little confused about his own practice at the moment, so he passed it.In fact, how did Lu Xueqi know that Zhang Xiaofan is really only at the fourth level of cultivation if he only talks about the practice of Taiji Xuanqing Dao, that is, the realm of just being able to use magic weapons, but in Zhang Xiaofan's body, there is another kind of Buddhism that is supreme The true Dharma "Da Brahman Prajna" is the key to the facts. Buddhism cultivation originally pays more attention to comprehending the self-nature than Taoism. Zhang Xiaofan has practiced Dafan Prajna for five years. It is far better than the young disciples of the same cultivation level.It is also because of this that he was hit hard by the demons of the demon sect, and he was blocked by Taiji Xuanqingdao's bodyguard and another layer by Dafan Prajna at the same time, so he was lucky to survive. Immediately the two stood up, Zhang Xiaofan recalled the fire stick to his hand, the dark blue light spread out, surrounding the two of them.Lu Xueqi pondered for a moment, pointed to the opposite direction of the water, and the two of them walked towards the depths of the endless darkness. This walk, I don’t know how long it took, this direction seemed to have no boundaries. After a long time, the two were still walking on the open space. Under this Necromancer Abyss, apart from being amazing, there was no A little sign of life. Some just danced and wandered around them, craving the flesh and blood, floating up and down silently. Both Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi's faces became heavier as they walked, and at the same time they felt that the surrounding Yin Qi was like a tide, but at this moment Zhang Xiaofan only felt his Qi and blood surged, and there were waves of dizziness.In fact, although his foundation is solid, his cultivation level is not high after all, and at the same time, he was hit by the old man, the wild dog Taoist and Liu Hao, which caused great damage to the meridians in his body. After a while, Lu Xueqi also found that something was wrong with Zhang Xiaofan, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?" Zhang Xiaofan forced a smile, said: "I'm fine, let's go." Lu Xueqi glanced at him and said, "Do you want to rest..." She hadn't said the word "rest" for rest, but she saw Zhang Xiaofan's body suddenly swayed, his body went limp, and he actually fell down.And the fire stick in his hand quickly dimmed as he fell down. Lu Xueqi was shocked, she quickly supported him, her hands were cold, she realized that Zhang Xiaofan had passed out.At that moment, she, who has always been known for her calmness among her fellow teachers and sisters, also felt a little flustered. Immediately, she thought of another, more terrifying question. The fire stick has lost its effect, so what can I use to resist the countless ghosts around me? Almost at the same time that Lu Xueqi thought of this question, the countless ghosts emitting a faint white light seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and then, in front of them, two living flesh and blood bodies stood there without a trace of defense. In the darkness, there seemed to be countless voices laughing and roaring triumphantly at the same time. Countless ghosts seemed to freeze in mid-air for a moment, and then, like greedy beasts, they rushed towards the two helpless people standing in the darkness. people.
