Chapter 42
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
This question seemed to be really embarrassing for Ling Buyan. When Li Fenglan saw his Master’s reaction, he suddenly felt a little happy.
“…At that time, I might be in retreat, or I might be visiting secret realms everywhere.” Ling Buyan did not know what Li Fenglan wanted to say, so he could only explain it in such a simple way.
“Understand, understand, I understand.” Li Fenglan clearly didn’t understand anything, but still said that, he looked very happy.
Cheng Huang, who was woken up just now, also became excited when he saw Li Fenglan happy. But it seemed to have forgotten how big it was now, and with a slight movement of Cheng Huang, the long horns on its back pierced into the woods.
In an instant, more than a dozen towering trees were knocked down by Cheng Huang.
“Mmm!” It was obviously taken aback by itself, Cheng Huang opened his eyes wide, carefully looking at the branches above his head.
Seeing this situation, Ling Buyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, he changed his target and continued to “torture” Cheng Huang.
Looking at his master’s back, Li Fenglan couldn’t help but think – he was obviously not a person with a strong curiosity, but now he especially wanted to know Ling Buyan’s past.
The most important thing was that Li Fenglan had the most urgent desire of his two lifetimes.
He wanted to save Ling Buyan, he didn’t want his Master to die.
It was said in “Tianmian Daosheng” that Ling Buyan and Mo Shenyu died together.
And what should he do to change this plot?
…
Cheng Huang was “tortured” by Li Fenglan and Ling Buyan for a long time, but in the end it still didn’t remember how it could become smaller.
But as an ancient ferocious beast, it had also made progress.
——For example, it took Cheng Huang a long time to finally get used to the fact that he can speak.
And now everything that had been held back for more than a thousand years, can now be expressed to the fullest.
At this moment, the huge Cheng Huang was lying in the open space behind Miguang Mountain.
While blinking its ice-blue eyes, it looked at Li Fenglan affectionately and said, “I like Fenglan so much!”
After finishing speaking, Cheng Huang covered his face with his paws in embarrassment, and said again: “Master, is so cute~”
Li Fenglan: “… so my spiritual pet was thinking about this every day?”
And when Li Fenglan was speechless, he saw from the corner of his eye… Ling Buyan, who was standing by the side, was also nodding.
Li Fenglan: …Master, why did you nod your head? Did you know what Cheng Huang was thinking about before he could talk?
Li Fenglan obviously didn’t speak, he just looked at Ling Buyan silently, but the other party seemed to hear what Li Fenglan was thinking and said: “I think the same as Cheng Huang.”
Cheng Huang and I thought the same.
Wait! Is Master complimenting me for being cute…
Li Fenglan suddenly realized.
But before he could say anything, Ling Buyan turned around again and continued to instruct Cheng Huang on how to obtain his memories to become smaller.
Why does Li Fenglan feel that his master was also a little embarrassed?
Illusion, must be illusion.
Cheng Huang was different from other natural beasts in that it suddenly grew bigger. Therefore, all those complicated inheritance memories suddenly appeared in his mind.
Although Cheng Huang couldn’t think of how he could become smaller for a while, he told Li Fenglan all the messy things in his memory.
However, Li Fenglan was not interested at all, because what Cheng Huang said was all about its own race—that is, other natural ferocious beasts that had been dead for thousands of years, the stories of their lives.
This kind of old gossip, he was afraid only he would like it!
After staying in the back of Miguang Mountain for a day, Li Fenglan finally returned without success.
It was also when Li Fenglan left that Cheng Huang realized that he seemed to have to shrink back quickly.
Ever since he was released from Shaoyuan Mountain a few months ago, Cheng Huang had slept next to Li Fenglan every night. Compared with the dark millennium in the cave, it was like an immortal’s life!
But today, it could not change back to its original state, so it had to stay alone in this dark back mountain.
After all, with a body like Cheng Huang’s, he couldn’t go back to the front mountain.
“Woooooo~” Cheng Huang watched his master leave with teary eyes.
——Maybe this was the price of growing up early.
Miguang Mountain was not big, but at this time, there were several big troubles hidden on this small Miguang Mountain.
After watching Cheng Huang in the back mountain for a long time, Li Fenglan went back to the front hall.
Just arriving, he saw… beams of golden light leaking from the windows of the front hall of Miguang Mountain, extremely bright at night.
Ling Buyan was not like himself, he had the habit of resting every night like ordinary people. He often read or meditated at night. Usually at this time, Ling Buyan would use the night pearl for light.
However, in Li Fenglan’s impression, the light of night pearl was not so dazzling…
“What is Master doing?” Li Fenglan muttered softly, then finally decided to walk towards the main hall.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the main hall, before he had time to knock on the door, the door opened by itself. Ling Buyan, dressed in black, stood opposite Li Fenglan.
At this time, Ling Buyan stood standing against the light, his whole body wrapped in warm golden light, he looked extraordinarily divine.
However, his expression was slightly tired.
“Master, I saw from outside just now that there seemed to be something lit inside the main hall.” Li Fenglan was stunned for a moment, and said to Ling Buyan.
“That’s right.”
If Li Fenglan read it correctly, the smile on Ling Buyan’s face at this moment actually felt a little helpless.
What happened here?
After finishing the sentence just now, Ling Buyan turned sideways and gave way to the door.
And Li Fenglan, who didn’t understand what happened at all, just walked in with a dazed expression.
He only had to wait for the next moment to see—at this time, in the main hall of Miguang Mountain, there were two golden birds lying motionless.
It turns out…the dazzling light just now came from them!
Ling Buyan sighed and said, “They were originally to be placed together with Cheng Huang, but Cheng Huang broke free and ran out, so they are just laying here.”
He turned around in a tangled state, and squinted slightly at Duan Qianli and Duan Wannian.
“Then what should we do…” Li Fenglan muttered in a low voice.
“If they sleep for a few more days, they should wake up by themselves.” Ling Buyan replied.
“No, what I mean is—” Before Li Fenglan finished speaking, he swallowed the rest of the sentence into his stomach.
He almost wanted to say just now: I mean, what will Master do tonight.
Li Fenglan quickly switched emotions, nodded and agreed.
He looked around the entire hall, and after a while, he pretended to remember just now, and asked: “Then, can Master stay here tonight?”
Duan Qianli and Duan Wannian were too dazzling. Even if Ling Buyan didn’t need to sleep, under such a dazzling light, it might be difficult to meditate with eyes closed.
Miguang Mountain was only so big, so Master can’t be allowed to meditate in the dark, right?
Ling Buyan seemed to be thinking about this question too, and he frowned slightly and shook his head and said, “I’m afraid it won’t work…”
There were only a few rooms in Miguang Mountain that could accommodate people. There was only one bare bed board left.
And for the rest, there was only Li Fenglan’s room and the apse of Miguang Mountain.
Probably because Li Fenglan had lived in both places for a long time, no matter where Ling Buyan goes now, Li Fenglan felt… a little weird.
After thinking for a while, Ling Buyan sighed and said: “It seems that I can only go to the back hall.”
“En!” Li Fenglan, who felt guilty for some reason, nodded quickly, “That’s right, I will go back to my side.”
“Okay, you should rest quickly, we will think about Cheng Huang’s situation tomorrow.” Ling Buyan reminded with a sigh.
“En.” Li Fenglan nodded obediently again.
…
By the time he got back to his room, the night was already dark. Tonight without Cheng Huang’s company beside his pillow, Li Fenglan was still a little uncomfortable.
Li Fenglan, who couldn’t sleep for some reason, stared blankly at the ceiling.
Qiu Wanyou, his master in the previous life, was a serious and strict person. When he faced him, he was like a mortal student facing his master, and he absolutely dared not be presumptuous.
But Ling Buyan was different, it can even be said to be completely different.
Clearly when they met for the first time, Li Fenglan still felt that there was an inexplicable divinity in Ling Buyan, unlike a mortal. But now, he was the most able to let go in front of him, and even joked with him all day long.
He trusted Ling Buyan, and sometimes even trusted the other party more than he trusted himself.
This kind of trust came not only from the other party’s strength and his many times of help, but also from Li Fenglan’s instinct.
To Li Fenglan, Ling Buyan was not like a master but rather a unique…friend?
Just thinking about it like this, Li Fenglan actually fell asleep in a daze.
However, at this time, he didn’t know that his sleep was destined to be out of the ordinary.
…
At this time, in the snow-covered Meizhou in the distance, the Dongshan Yinhun Banner was hung on Li Fuyue’s bedside.
The light blue light wrapped the person lying on the bed in a short time.
And Li Fenglan, who was sleeping soundly, had a ray of spirit on his body that was also affected…
When Li Fenglan gradually regained consciousness, the picture in front of him had changed from the simple and plain ceiling on Miguang Mountain to the intricately carved ceiling with the patterned lobular red sandalwood plucked bed.
This place looked so familiar…
Li Fenglan blinked his extremely sore eyes hard, and finally his vision gradually became clear.
——He couldn’t be more familiar with the pattern in front of him. Li Fenglan understood with just one glance that what he was lying on now was exactly the bed in the forbidden area of his previous life.
Snowy Meizhou…
Why am I back again!
After realizing where he was now, Li Fenglan felt a chill all over his body.
Even though the bed was his own and so was the room, but he would never forget that Li Fuyue’s body was still lying on this bed.
At this moment, Li Fenglan didn’t even have time to think about how he came to this ghostly place… He just turned slightly sideways subconsciously, wanting to see if “Li Fuyue” was here.
Logically speaking, as a cultivator who had lived for thousands of years, Li Fenglan shouldn’t be afraid of a corpse, especially a corpse that had no soul. Even if he was lying in a sea of corpses, he shouldn’t have any special reaction.
But when this “corpse” was himself, the fear that wasn’t that big at first multiplied.
Li Fenglan found that his actions were not smooth at this time, he turned around to look inside the bed with great difficulty, mentally prepared to see “Li Fuyue”.
No problem, no problem.
Isn’t it himself! It doesn’t matter if he took a look.
But even though he was already prepared, Li Fenglan couldn’t help but have his pupils tremble the moment he turned around.
……how can this be?
Li Fenglan saw that there was no one beside her, only a white wall and a light blue gauze curtain.
Seeing this, Li Fenglan slowly turned around again.
At this moment, a terrifying thought came to his mind.
Li Fenglan finally realized that he might be “Li Fuyue” now.
At this time, his movements were not very smooth, but Li Fenglan still tried his best to use his fingers to gently touch his hukou.
In this extremely quiet environment, all senses were magnified countless times.
Maybe it’s because he hadn’t moved for too long, big movements like turning around were okay, but it was difficult for Li Fenglan to complete the delicate movements of controlling a finger to touch a certain place.
Li Fenglan moved his fingers little by little. This movement, which usually seemed not difficult at all, actually caused dense cold sweat to break out on his back. After an unknown amount of time, the tip of Li Fenglan’s ring finger finally touched… the hukou of his left hand.
He could feel that there was a thin scar there.
Scar…
At this moment, Li Fenglan froze.
In Li Fuyue’s previous life, before his spirit sword, Finished Karma, recognized him, a scar was drawn on the hukou on his left hand by it. Finished Karma was a natural god sword, and the scars left on people would not disappear easily.
So Li Fuyue still had a faint imprint on his hand after many years.
In the thousand years of his previous life, Li Fenglan had developed the habit of lightly touching the scar with his fingers from time to time. After his rebirth, it took him a long time to get used to the fact that he had nothing on his hands.
But now, this scar actually came back…
Why did he return to Li Fuyue’s body?
Can he return later?
For a moment, countless questions popped up in Li Fenglan’s mind, and he was in a state of confusion.
At this time, Li Fenglan’s movement were still very difficult, he slowly scanned the room from the corner of his eye, and finally found that there was a Dongshan Yinhun Banner not far away.
The Yinhun Banner had actually been running smoothly.
…Although the reason was still unclear, Li Fenglan guessed that his sudden appearance here and the current state of Dongshan Yinhun Banner were definitely related to his master Qiu Wanyou!
Seeing this, Li Fenglan, who was lying on the bed, slowly clenched his teeth.
Just when he was thinking and trying to leave this body, Li Fenglan’s consciousness suddenly felt that someone was coming towards him.
Seeing this, Li Fenglan closed his eyes instinctively, and used the turtle’s breath technique to cover up all the breath of life in his body.
Right now he was in Li Fuyue’s body, his movements were not very flexible and convenient. When Li Fenglan finished all this, the man had already entered the secret room.
——Worried about being discovered by the other party, Li Fenglan even took back his consciousness just now. Now he only retained the five senses of ordinary people. With his eyes closed tightly, he was immersed in darkness, and this feeling made him extremely nervous.
Li Fenglan heard the footsteps getting closer.
Not long after, the sound of cloth rubbing against his ears came again. It seemed that someone was slowly sitting by the bed.
…Is it Lin Chaochen?
Sure enough, as soon as Li Fenglan thought of this, he heard someone softly calling “Fuyue.”
This voice came from the person he was most familiar with, Li Fenglan would never get it wrong… …This person was Lin Chaochen!
Fortunately, Li Fenglan was unable to move now, and just now he used the technique of turtle’s breath to seal himself, otherwise, when he heard these two words, he would definitely have a conditioned reflex action out of fear, and he would be discovered by Lin Chaochen.
But even so, Li Fenglan was still nervous to the point of feeling a buzz in his ears.
Lin Chaochen, who was sitting by the bed, stretched out his hand, and gently smoothed the long hair of his Senior brother lying on the bed. After a while, he suddenly took Li Fenglan’s hand.
Li Fenglan:! ! !
Help, what was he going to do?
Just when Li Fenglan’s scalp was numb, he felt his fingertips suddenly touch something cold. That thing seemed to be made of metal, slightly rough, as if carved with patterns.
What was this…
Before Li Fenglan could figure out what it was, Lin Chaochen slowly clenched his hand tightly.
Afterwards, the thing that was just put in his hand was also held by Li Fenglan.
Li Fenglan finally understood what the thing in his hand was…it
was the hilt of a sword! As a sword cultivator, he could never mistake that.
But as “Li Fuyue”, he was already dead, so what was Lin Chaochen going to do when he put the sword hilt in his hand?
In his last life, Li Fenglan knew that his junior brother looked easy to talk to, and he was cute and soft when he was young. But in fact, Lin Chaochen hid his thoughts so deeply that it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to figure out what he was thinking.
This was the case back then, but now Lin Chaochen, who had fallen into qi deviation and became more and more abnormal, was of course even more elusive.
…And rather than figuring out what Lin Chaochen was trying to do by letting him hold the sword hilt, Li Fenglan wanted him to leave this place even more.
But Li Fenglan’s wish did not come true.
In the next moment, Lin Chaochen held his hand and raised the sword.
“Brother, can you come back…” Lin Chaochen said softly.
His voice was not loud, but it still echoed in the empty room.
Before Li Fenglan subconsciously said the word “not good”, Lin Chaochen held his senior brother’s hand and raised the long sword.
——The next moment the long sword pierced into his own shoulder.
To be honest, the feeling of being forcibly raised by someone’s arm was not comfortable, but now Li Fenglan had no mind to think about it at all!
He heard the sound of a sharp knife piercing his flesh, and at the same time felt a familiar resistance in his hand.
In the next moment, the back of Li Fenglan’s hand was already splashed with warm blood.
F*ck!
F*ck! F*ck!
If it wasn’t for the existence of the turtle breathing technique, Li Fenglan would have opened his eyes uncontrollably at this moment.
He finally knew what Lin Chaochen was doing…
It turned out that his unlucky junior brother actually held his hand and mutilated himself with a sword!
At this moment, Li Fenglan suddenly remembered that he had seen Lin Chaochen’s arm – his arm was densely covered with scars.
But now it wasn’t just his arm, Lin Chaochen stabbed himself in the chest with a sword.
“Fuyue, were you in so much pain at that time?”
“Do you hate me?”
“Wake up and take revenge…”
Lin Chaochen didn’t touch the sword, he just held him, whispering every sentence in Li Fenglan’s ear.
“…I have sworn since I was a child that I would not let senior brother get hurt. I never thought that the person who hurt you and killed you in the end… would be myself.”
“Senior Brother, do you know that as long as you stab me, I won’t feel pain…”
Perverted, Lin Chaochen was really too perverted.
The lovely Junior Brother in Li Fenglan’s memory, the leader of the righteous way in “Tianmian Daosheng”, and the person in front of him who would secretly come to snowy Meizhou and use himself to injure himself…
At this moment, Lin Chaochen, who Li Fenglan was familiar with and unfamiliar with, appeared together in his mind, and he couldn’t tell which one was his real junior brother.
Or maybe it was all of them.
But having said that, fortunately Li Fenglan closed his eyes tightly now, and even sealed his spiritual consciousness.
Otherwise, seeing the picture in front of him, he might be stimulated psychologically again.
—— Lin Chaochen held the hilt of the sword with Li Fenglan’s hand, his eyes were extremely pious.
And such pious eyes, coupled with the blood all over his body and face, made Lin Chaochen look like a ghost.
He held Li Fenglan’s hand tightly, and slowly pulled out the long sword.
Blood gushed out of Lin Chaochen’s chest in huge gushes. Even though he was a cultivator and such a wound would not pose a threat to his life, it did not mean that Lin Chaochen would not be in pain.
With such serious injuries, ordinary people might have long been unable to control the expression on their faces.
But Lin Chaochen was different. Although he was pale, he was actually smiling… that expression seemed to be very happy.
“Senior brother…” Lin Chaochen said again, and finally took the sword out of Li Fenglan’s hand.
At this time, Li Fenglan’s hand holding the sword was already stained red with blood, but Lin Chaochen didn’t seem to mind it at all.
He slowly knelt down on the side of the bed, and put his brother’s hand on his face.
“Brother, do you remember? When I was young…you liked this very much, gently pinching my face. In fact, I remember… it all…” At the end, Lin Chaochen’s voice choked up.
But at this moment Li Fenglan just wanted to say – why are you choking up! The one who should really be afraid and cry, isn’t it me!
This world is bad!
