The River Flows East to the Whistle

"I'll take you in. Everyone else is watching from behind the one-way mirror in the monitoring room. I'm talking to Zhou Liang. If you find an opportunity, pry open his spiritual realm. Stop immediately if you have any problems. Don't force it." In the end, Hongyin still made such a decision, and Jiang Liu could feel that she was full of ominous premonition just like himself.

When Jiang Liu followed Hong Yin into the interrogation room, Zhou Liang was sitting on a chair in the middle of the room with his head down.

"Zhou Liang, can you tell me now why you betrayed Tang Dynasty?" Hongyin walked in and sat on the table in front of Zhou Liang.

Zhou Liang raised his head and looked at Hongyin with a smile. This smile made Jiang Liu's hair stand on end.

You know, Dizang broke Zhou Liang's hands and feet and smashed one of his eyes. Zhou Liang, who was chained to a chair, was no different from a rotting corpse crawling out of a grave.

But the smile on his face was as sunny and calm as the first day we met.In Zhou Liang's emotions, there was no fear, no struggle, that kind of calm.

like dead people.

"Zhou Liang, don't force me to torture you." Hong Yin said sharply to Zhou Liang.

Zhou Liang smiled, "What punishment do you think will be used against me?"

Jiang Liu's sympathy felt Hong Yin's helplessness, but he still stretched out his spiritual thread to test Zhou Liang's spiritual realm.

Sure enough, as Hong Yin said, there was nowhere to enter, and Zhou Liang's spiritual realm was only a cloud of chaos, like a deep black fog, which made people daunting.Jiang Liu increased the strength of his mental touch, and the mental pressure caused his left eye under the gauze to throb.

"Ah, guide, you're hurt, don't force it too much." Zhou Liang saw Jiang Liu's expression, and for a moment, Jiang Liu felt Zhou Liang's emotional fluctuations, as thin as hair falling into the water.

"Ask him about the guide." Jiang Liu said to Hong Yin.

Hongyin glanced at Jiang Liu, then turned to Zhou Liang: "Where is Xiaolin?"

In an instant, a gleam of light flashed across Jiang Zhouliang's dark field.

"Xiaolin, she's fine, she's safe, and I'm protecting her." A trace of pain flashed across Zhou Liang's expression, but was instantly covered by a smile.

Hongyin understood. She closed her eyes and opened them again, "Zhou Liang, in a general sense, is Xiaolin still alive?"

Zhou Liang's body shook suddenly, and the spiritual realm opened a gap like lightning flashing through dark clouds, and Jiang Liu plunged into it.

The moment he entered Zhou Liang's spiritual realm, Jiang Liu was stunned. He had never seen a sentinel's spiritual realm so chaotic and oppressive as before.

A small pond, surrounded by rocks and plants, he didn't know what this field used to be like, but now, everything was soaked in dirty black, full of suffocating black fog.The surroundings of the pond, the rocks, and the dead plants were covered with black viscous liquid, which dripped slowly and finally gathered in the pond.The water in the pool is as dirty as ink, with messy memory fragments floating in a slow vortex.

"Is Xiaolin still alive?!" In the outside world, Hongyin shouted.

"She's fine, she's safe, and I can protect her!" Zhou Liang roared back.

Under Zhou Liang's furious roar, a pool of black water set off black waves. In the water pattern, Jiang Liu saw a slender hand turning up from the bottom of the water and flashing past. On the wrist was the guide's uniform.

"So, where is Xiaolin now?"

Hongyin's voice shocked Zhou Liang, and he saw the black water boiling like boiling.

The hand rolled up again, and Jiang Liu plunged into the dark water of the pool regardless of other things.

The black turbid liquid instantly submerged the river, and the river, which lost gravity and sense of direction, rolled in the water, and fragments of memory brushed past him.

A smiling girl in the military uniform that didn't fit when they enlisted together is Xiaolin. This is Zhou Liang's memory when he first met Xiaolin.

"Zhou Liang, Zhou Liang, listen to me, did Xitu do something to Xiao Lin? Did they blackmail you with this?" Hong Yin's voice sounded like thunder.

The pain just flashed across Zhou Liang's face, and it cut back to a masked smile like a slide, "It is the great Lord, our Lord, who gave me the strength to protect Xiaolin, he kept us together, he is Great, he is truth..."

Another piece of memory hit the mental thread.

The thin girl, covered in bruises, was lying on the operating table, feebly raising her hand towards herself.

"They're beasts! They tortured her! They fucked her!" The pain regained Zhou Liang's consciousness again.

"Who are they...?" Hongyin stood up, she knew that what she was most worried about had happened.

"Don't waste time." The smile quickly switched back to Zhou Liang's face, "The world belongs to our Lord. He created the perfect sentinel and guide. He made us complete and he made us invincible!"

In the darkness, Jiang Liu once again saw the pale Xiao Lin, lying on the operating table, her eyes were as hollow as if her soul had come out of her body. Several people in surgical gowns surrounded Xiao Lin, and in front of Zhou Liang, cut Xiao Lin open. Lynn's skull.

"Ah!" Zhou Liang screamed hoarsely in the interrogation room, and Jiang Liu felt that Zhou Liang's entire spiritual realm was trembling. In the memory fragments, a person in a surgical suit cut off a small piece of Xiaolin's brain tissue and held it up. Holding the piece of pink substance, he walked towards Zhou Liang.

"Don't come here!!" Zhou Liang howled like crazy, and the black vortex slammed the river deep into the depths.

"Jiang Liu, come out!" Hongyin said anxiously, she knew that the interrogation was about to get out of control. "He's going crazy! Leave his spiritual realm, and you'll go crazy too!"

no!Jiang Liu in the darkness released more spiritual tentacles. He wanted to know who did these things, what was their purpose, and what Zhou Liang was hiding?There was a sharp pain in the left eye, and the tumbling river crashed into pieces of shattered memory fragments.

"Zhou Liang, when will the war end? Will we submit the application for union after it is over..."

"Put down your weapon, or I'll kill this guide..."

"Help me! Don't let them take me away!!!"

A clear fragment was displayed in front of Jiang Liu's eyes. In the bright hall, more than [-] prisoners of the Great Tang Dynasty knelt on the ground.

A man in white was lazily lying on the cushion in front of him, with slender eyebrows, Jiang Liu recognized that he was the special envoy of the Dark Sentinel, Bai.

"You have all become perfect Sentinels, you will become honored members of the West Turkistan Empire, and the Dark Sentinels will entrust you with important missions."

Two dozen Sentinels, each with a pink scar on the back of their shaved head.

"You will always obey the will of the Lord, the strongest sentinel of darkness."

Ahead, someone raised the black curtain.Jiang Liu's brain was in severe pain like a sharp knife. He tied up his last mental tentacles and stared at the black curtain.Zhou Liang's roar and Hong Yin's anxious call came from the outside world!

"Jiang Liu! Come out! It's too late!!"

"The Lord will protect me, my little Lin!! I will never lose her again!! I hurt her! Kill me! Kill me!!"

Jiang Liu saw fragments of memory, blurred and shattered like burning, the black curtain was slowly raised, behind the curtain, a man's face gradually appeared, with brown-black skin and thin cheeks.

Everything around instantly boiled up!Jiang Liu watched himself being swallowed by darkness.

But what is Zhou Liang's plan? !

Suddenly a thin girl appeared in front of Jiang Liu.

It was Xiao Lin, whose broken limbs flashed in the water.

The girl stretched out her hands and pushed a mental fragment to Jiang Liu.

In an instant, the light returned to Jiang Liu's eyes again, and Ding Shiyang pressed his temples with both hands, protecting himself with his spiritual power.

But Jizo's gloomy figure was in front of him, and he broke Zhou Liang's neck with his hands.

The one-way mirror in the interrogation room was smashed to pieces.

Jiang Liu was still in shock, his whole body trembling with exhaustion, a trace of blood flowed from the gauze covering his left eye.

"Jiang Liu, your eyes!" Li Xuan rushed over worried.

"What did you see?" Hong Yin's voice.

yeah what did i seeJiang Liu asked himself ignorantly, the dark sentinel of Xitu, the last fragment of his mind.

Jiang Liu woke up suddenly, "Ksitigarbha! Ksitigarbha!" He grabbed Ksitigarbha's sleeve.

"Jiang Liu, what's the matter with you?" Hongyin rushed over, Jiang Liu reached out to hold Hongyin's hand, a spiritual resonance played the message to Hongyin, Hongyin's face turned pale instantly, she turned around and rushed out of the door.

At the same time, Jiang Liu pulled at Dizang: "Take me to the Sentinel Camp, now! Quick!"

Dizang didn't hesitate for a moment, picked up Jiang Liu and rushed out.

"Protect me." When the night wind blew through Jiang Liu's hair, Jiang Liu buried his head deeply in Jizo's chest.

In an instant, like an unfurling tide, Jiang Liu expanded his spiritual realm to the limit, covering the entire Sentinel Battalion, holding hundreds of silk threads of the five senses in Jiang Liu's hands.

At the same time, with a loud bang, a sonic bomb was detonated in a distant armory.
