The forest is like a deep and endless darkness, the creepy vines and monster trees, the mournful howls of birds and beasts, all of which make people feel intimidated.Xue Lian is just a seventeen-year-old woman, and no matter how hard Ren is in his heart, he still can't help but feel scared because of the illusion.Facing her fears is her purpose."
Hah!"
She deliberately shouted loudly as a way to increase her courage and confidence.The bird heard her voice and flew away as if frightened.She drew her sword and slashed through the thorns in her path."
Even if I am scratched by a branch and frightened by the darkness, I will not retreat."
The white moonlight shines through the shadows of the trees, reflecting light white spots on the black and inky ground.
It turned out that at some point, the sky had completely darkened, and the originally gloomy and terrifying forest seemed even more gloomy at this moment, and between the branches of the trees, an unknown blue light shone out.The growth of every strong person needs countless tribulations to witness, and now Xue Lian's ordeal has begun.The sparse and bleak woods stood crookedly, with wet marks of dew, reflecting the silvery-white light of the moonlight.The secluded and uninhabited jungle, even when there is a light source, is always dull and matte.A moth is chasing the source of the light, constantly flapping on the wild mushrooms that glow with various colors, and its weak wings have the perseverance to never give up, following the light that may kill it, the light it cannot give up.In the moonlight, it glowed an eerie white light, and the flowers on the grass were hazy and bloodstained.It was cold, it was bone-chilling, and the cold sweat on her body wet her back."
Ying Ning......"
"Go home, my child ......"
"We will protect you, don't be afraid, child, come here......"
The wind that pierced through the jungle seemed to have some kind of melody, and no matter how you tried to identify it, you couldn't tell where the sound came from."
Why did someone call my name, what was that distant and ethereal voice?"
The terrifying blackness, approaching inch by inch, devoured Xue Lian's sight little by little, she tried to find a little sound of life, but only heard her own increasingly intensified heartbeat, plop, plop......
Ying Ning is Xue Lian's former name, the name given to her by her parents when she was alive.Therefore, when the fluttering word Ying Ning appeared, Xue Lian's heart couldn't help but sway.In the darkness, a creature like an owl opened its dark eyes, quietly looking at the jungle that had fallen into the darkness, and also looked at the girl who was slowly slowing down.Quietly, the branches and vines seemed to be alive, and began to squirm, approaching her little by little from all directions.Xue Lian was still holding the Tianyuan Sword Ruler in her hand, her steps were soft as if she was walking in the forest, as if she was afraid of stepping on the fallen leaves under her feet, and her eyes flashed with a layer of faint silver light, which made the world in her eyes even more blurred.Slowly, a gust of wind blew in the forest, whimpering, as if someone was crying, as if laughing, like a baby's cry.The strangely shaped tree finally revealed its original face, and the two old trees stretched out their swarthy arms to capture her into the endless darkness, and the ghostly crying wind seemed to come from its mouth.The old tree opened its deep bloody mouth and made a sneering sound, wanting both the prey in front of him.Xiaocao was just crying, swaying her thin body, were they afraid?
Or just with his head down and laughing out of tears, is someone coming again?
Dark clouds obscured the moon and had already begun."
You're not my father and mother, they're gone, what are you?"
In Xue Lian's eyes, the scene in front of her was still a dark jungle, but the two reckless old trees had turned into human shapes, the appearance of her parents."
This world doesn't need you to fight for him, don't torture yourself anymore.Ying Ning, don't you miss us?
Come with me, kid, we have been separated as a family for so long, don't you want to be reunited with us?
”The sound of flickering distance and proximity echoed in Xue Lian's ears.The two people in front of them are so familiar, they are still the same as before, but they lack the intimacy of blood dissolving in water."
The enemy who killed you has died in the hands of others, and the car is torn and died, and you can turn a blind eye."
Xue Lian lowered her head and said faintly.The moon, obscured by the dark clouds, released the last rays of moonlight, which were reflected by the Tianyuan Sword Ruler onto an old tree.Then, a huge sword light flashed, and Xue Lian moved.Swish!
Roars of pain and the sound of branches cracking overlapped, interspersed with a few unintelligible curses.Two sword lights fell, and the two old trees were broken at the waist.The silver light in Xue Lian's eyes disappeared at some point, Xue Lian looked at the two old trees that had fallen, was silent for a while, and slowly exhaled."
Through your vision, I am happy to be able to see Daddy and Auntie again.It's a pity that you have too many words!
”These plants emit hallucinogenic scents and then complete the hunt by striking a fatal blow while the prey is delirious.Xue Lian's strength was several points higher than them, and if it weren't for Xue Lian's willingness to accept hallucinations, he wouldn't be approached by them at all.The death of the old tree caused the vines and branches that had gathered to shrink back in a hurry.At this time, the woods were too quiet, and the original sound of wind and insects seemed to have disappeared, except for a few bird whimpers diffused from time to time in the empty air with the smell of blood, which seemed to be the last struggle of life, and seemed to be a cry for help before death."
The smell of blood?"
Xue Lian walked to the edge of the dead old tree, picked up the corpse of the old tree with the tip of his knife, and through the dim light, he could see that the thin smell of blood was emanating from the old tree."
What the teacher said is really right, everything in the Cangnan Continent is very similar to the Kyushu Continent, but there are many differences, and even some existences are diametrically opposite in nature."
The dark clouds obscured the moon, and in the final brewing, the whole land was shrouded in darkness, and the old trees of the woods were soaked in a dead light, and they looked so weak.They didn't dare to fight Xue Lian's idea anymore, the human strength of this human was far beyond what they could provoke, and even if they were just close, they would be easily discovered.Suddenly, a ray of light shot through the night sky and was reflected in the owl-like pupils of the bird, and then the dark clouds slowly began to withdraw from the sky, revealing the moon little by little.Even the fog in the mountains was dissipated a lot, and all the sounds disappeared in this instant, and the entire mountain became extremely silent.The moon in the sky was red, red with blood.
