"He can't survive anymore, give him up." Bai Li stood in a pile of blood and said expressionlessly. He was used to seeing death. No matter whether it was the death of his enemies, his companions, or even his family members, nothing could cause a ripple in his calm state of mind. However, the White Lotus Saint is completely different. Although she has witnessed many deaths and watched her subordinates and confidants die on the battlefield one by one, she still cannot let go of the death of her companions. At this moment, she ignored Bai Li's persuasion and still pressed the bandage with one hand, blocking the chest of the seriously injured person, hoping to save the other person. Even though the blood had soaked the gauze, the hands of Saint White Lotus were stained with blood. "There are spies from the imperial court among us," said one of the Dharma protectors. His face was only slightly better than that of his companion who was gradually losing his vitality. One hand was hanging on his abdomen to cover the wound. The other hand was gone, leaving only half of his sleeve that was also cut by a sharp blade. When the Protector King said this, the others seemed to be in pain, and their rapid breathing either stopped or was temporarily suppressed. Most of the people here were slightly or seriously injured in the battle with the imperial army. However, they are survivors, or rather unfortunate, because they are not dead yet. Two guardian wise kings were killed on the spot by Dewei smashing their Tianling Caps. At the time, they thought it was a terrible thing. But now that I think about it, they were killed on the spot, which seemed to be a good thing personally.
Because they are already dead, and the remaining people have to continue to struggle. The White Lotus Saint didn't answer. She didn't let go of her hand until the injured person she rescued completely died. She didn't wipe the blood on her hand. She just held her hand in silence and prayed with her eyes closed. "Saint..." The Protector King lowered his head, "Now that things have happened, no matter how much I believe that the White Lotus Sect is monolithic, the events that have happened one after another make it impossible for me to believe what I said before. In the battle in the valley, we lost most of our backbone, and even Grandma Sun died in the battle. Now, my good brother is also dead, I have lost one of my hands and have become a disabled person. I am afraid it will be impossible to walk out from here. Speaking of which, we are all dead or about to die. Although since the day we joined the White Lotus Sect, we have taken life and death lightly, dedicating ourselves wholeheartedly to the Inanimate Mother, and yearning to return to our home in the vacuum one day. However, I cannot accept that my death is unclear. Did we die at the hands of the officers and soldiers, the Feng Shui master and his eagle dogs, or did we die due to the conspiracy of our own people? Holy girl, I can't tell the difference. " "What's so confusing about this?" Bai Li didn't take it seriously, "It's all death anyway, whether it's a tragic death or an illness, whether you die on the bed or in the gutter, it doesn't make any difference. You are bound to die when you are born. No matter how much you struggle, no matter what expectations you have, even if you have any plans before, you should give up them all at this point. If you die, you will die. Don't worry about the meaning or why you are dying. If you die, you will die. Just go to it with all your heart. " Hearing the almost heartless words of Zuo Xian Wang Bai Li, everyone's already gloomy mood fell to the bottom and could not get up again. Bai Li is right, it's all death anyway. Maybe someone will hear about it a few days later and some will still care about how you died. But after a few months or a year, others will only know that you died and how you died. , who cares? In a few years, no one will even ask, and all that will lie here are nameless corpses that no one cares about. "King Zuoxian, why bother making everyone feel pain at this time?" The White Lotus Saint stood up and sighed quietly. One-third of the people here have suffered fatal injuries and will die soon. Among the other injured, there were also a few who, like the Dharma Protector, could not survive more than a few days in the deep mountains and would soon die of high fever and adverse reactions caused by wound inflammation. However, Saint White Lotus did not mean to blame Bai Li, because it was meaningless to blame anyone at this moment. In the eyes of everyone who were looking forward to or asking questions, she calmed down and said seriously: "Even if there are hawks from the imperial court, spies, or spies from other forces, it doesn't matter who they are. There is absolutely no point in dwelling on these things at this point.
Because we sacrificed so many people and expended so much strength just to get here. Even if the spy is still among us, we don't have time to investigate in detail, because we are here to blow up the dragon vein, not to uncover the spy. Even if there is a prince or a first-grade official from the imperial court here, I will choose to blow up the dragon veins first instead of killing them, because in front of the dragon veins, other goals have become meaningless. So, let’s just go to the dragon vein now, and the rest..." Saint White Lotus suddenly glanced at Bai Li intentionally or unintentionally, "King Zuo Xian, what do you think?" Bai Li was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the White Lotus Saint was asking for his opinion. Of course he agreed: "We are really here just for this matter." As he spoke, he looked around at everyone, "We don't have much time to hesitate here. Those who can still walk should follow us. Those who can't... stay here and wait for support." As soon as he said these words, everyone already understood that it was time to part ways with those companions who could no longer move forward. However, no one is willing to tell the truth and expose this white lie. A small group of people exchanged greetings with their injured companions, talking about how they would all go back to the countryside to visit their mother after leaving here, and some asked someone to bring a message home and dispose of a few houses. The people who were leaving talked cordially with the injured who were about to stay here, as if this was a separation brought about by the mission. Soon they would meet again, laugh, drink and pray together as before. However, most people were just silent, unwilling to take another look at their companions lying on the ground. They just turned their heads with difficulty, suppressed their emotions, and turned away decisively. "You won't come with us?" Bai Li looked at the broken-armed White Lotus Protector Dharma King. "You want me to come with you?" The Dharma Protector smiled. "Even if you are about to die, you still have a few days to live. I know that you have practiced hard qigong and have deep internal strength, which is enough to support you in taking away a few more eagle dogs from the court before you die. If you are willing to contribute, you will be of great help. It is better than dying in pain here. " After a pause, Bai Li added, "But if you don't want to come with us, that's up to you." "Well, King Zuoxian, I don't want to leave." The one-armed Dharma King whispered. "why?" Bai Li was a little surprised. This man had never cared about life and death before, saying that he would contribute everything to the White Lotus Sect. He naturally believed what the Dharma Protector said, so he was confused by his reaction at this time. "You also said that death is inevitable no matter what. No matter whether you do something great or do nothing, you will end up dead in the end, that's all. In this case, I suddenly felt that I didn't want to do anything. I just wanted to lie here and die. There was nothing else I wanted to do. " "Did my words make you unhappy?" Bai Li asked him. "I said, it's none of your business, it's just that I have other ideas." The Dharma Protector sighed, but his expression was not sad, but indifferent.
"I just think it's enough to get here, I don't want to go any further, not even a step." "Then I understand." Bai Li glanced at him, "You have a good rest here. We will meet again soon." The Protector King smiled miserably, "Lord Zuo Xian, I hope you are in good health and can get out of here alive, because although I don't want to fight anymore, I still wish the White Lotus Sect well, and one day you will actually enter Yujing. , take off that emperor’s head.” "Even if I do have this opportunity, it won't be my turn." Bai Li cupped his hands at him, "Goodbye, junior brother." The Dharma Protector used his remaining hand to squeeze the sword formula and saluted him solemnly, "Goodbye, Senior Brother Bai..." The White Lotus Saint did not say goodbye to anyone, nor did she look at the wounded, but walked silently into the darkness. As she stepped into the darkness, she vaguely heard the terrifying sound of a sharp blade penetrating into her body from behind, mixed with a faint sigh. Why did the Great Master Jiugong who guided her into this darkness disappear without a trace? She could no longer sense the sacred link and omen. Could it be that Master Jiugong had also abandoned these poor people? …… Ren Qi grasped the sword with one hand and held the cracked stone slab in front of him with the other hand. The light source in his hand was connected by Yin Xiu. At this time, Yin Xiu also put a hand on Ren Qi's back, being cautious. After a pause, the two of them took a deep breath almost at the same time, and then Ren Qi turned to Liu Banxian and asked: "Is the time here?" "What time?" Liu Banxian shook his head, "Brother Gaoshou, breaking down a door is not about welcoming a bride or kicking a sedan chair, nor is it about burying ancestors. There is no auspicious time or taboo. Just kick it down, and if there's nothing behind it, everything will be fine. It doesn't matter if there is a person or a zombie hiding behind you. You are a master of the synaesthesia realm. There are not many living creatures in this world who can survive a kick from you. " "But didn't you say that zombies can absorb people's yang energy?" Ren Qi had a rare hesitation, "When I was in Hong Kong Island, I heard the legend of the super zombie king. That bastard can fly and absorb people's blood from the air. He can suck you into a skeleton without even touching you. . If I kick open this door and wait for that bastard to suck me in, wouldn't I be dead? " "When you talk about that zombie king, I'm not so nervous." Liu Banxian puffed up his chest and said with confidence: "There is an expert in dealing with zombies here! He was the one who solved the Thousand-Year Zombie King!" Ren Qi glanced at Ma Xiaoyu, "You?" Ma Xiaoyu shook his head, "Of course I am also an expert in dealing with zombies, but he is the one who deals with the zombie king." "Huh?" Ren Qi frowned. Yin Xiu glared at him, "Why, it doesn't look like it?" "picture!" Ren Qi snorted coldly, "Then if you encounter a zombie later, you will take action, right?"
"Of course I will take action." Yin Xiu shook her wrist, and her knuckled fingers shook out the afterimage. "I won't make you suffer for too long before the zombie sucks you dry." Ren Qi's face was cold, "Then I really have to thank you." "You're welcome." After Yin Xiu finished speaking, Ren Qi turned his head away and stared at the stone door again, while taking a deep breath. drink! Ren Qi kicked out, and the heavy-looking stone door flew out with a kick. It moved forward several meters before falling to the ground, shattering into a pile of stones and raising smoke and dust. There was nothing but smoke and dust, and neither the zombies hiding inside nor the enemies hiding behind the door, waiting for a move, appeared. Several people breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, as Liu Banxian had guessed, there was a cave behind this tall stone door. "You invite me first?" Yin Xiu asked him. Ren Qi snorted, "I didn't go in first, or you? You also said that I was the vanguard of some special forces. Just like the first to ascend in ancient times, of course I was the first to suffer any flying arrows or boiling oil. ” Although he said he didn't care, Ren Qi very cautiously threw a few pieces of fluorite into the dark space to illuminate the surroundings. At this time, through the light, everyone discovered that it was a flat and square secret room with gray-white walls and many people and things carved on it. "It seems like there is a banquet." Ren Qi told what he saw. "It is indeed a banquet, but this banquet is not of this world." Liu Banxian squeezed out his head and looked around, "Look, there are priests, boys and fairies up here. Look at who is having a banquet and there are people flying around on the ceiling with blood drops? " A smile appeared on Ren Qi's lips, "The masters in the imperial palace are all useless people. Which prince and minister would ask them to attend a banquet? They are not even worthy of being gatekeepers." "Aren't you the same?" Yin Xiu glanced at him. "Absolutely. Why, do you think I can be looked down upon by others just because I am the commander?" Ren Qi did not have this illusion of being superior to others. "We, the masters of the field, are insidious and despicable to the generals. While they bleed and sweat in front, we will only hold them back from behind. The civil servants don't want to see us either, just because our practices are completely different from what they advocate. In their eyes, we are not as respected as those eunuchs. " "Hey, you know your profession and identity clearly." After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, Yin Xiu followed Ren Qi and stepped into the tomb one after another. This place is much smaller than the outside. However, this small place is actually comparable to the entire hollowed-out mountain. The area of this tomb seems to be more than 300 square meters, which is enough to be regarded as an exhibition hall of a museum. In the center of this "exhibition hall", there is a white platform, which seems to be decorated and carved with white jade. It is pure and flawless.
It seemed like a bed for people to sleep on. However, the bed was empty. (End of chapter)
