regardless of frontier

heat.

stuffy.

The owner of the teahouse shook his fan and looked at the sky. It should be raining soon.

These years, wars continue, people's business is difficult, and the small teahouse is also difficult to keep open. It is such a hot day that there is not a single customer. The hard life makes the boss shake his head and sigh.

The horse's hooves clattered, and the teahouse owner's eyes lit up in shock. Finally, there was a guest!

This is the first guest of the day, a stranger finally came, and because there is no business, the boss couldn't help but look at this guest for a while.

This person looks ordinary, with a complete red birthmark around his neck, and he is dressed in torn and dirty coarse cloth clothes, the soles of his shoes are almost worn out, he must have driven for a long time, judging by the current situation in the world , It should have come here after suffering a lot of war.

This is an incredible place. It is close to the No. 20 mountain in the world. A long time ago, after the change of dynasty, the new emperor would come here to worship, but [-] years ago, a big event happened. Since then, there has been no one People dare to come here, and they heard people say that there are monsters and plagues here, and the noise is terrible.

But nearly ten years ago, it became lively again.

why?

Because the era of wars has come, rivers and lakes, temples, everywhere are in dispute, and people everywhere are in dire straits. People accidentally discovered, hey, this ghostly place that no one dared to come to is actually a treasure land to avoid wars?Gradually, there is some popularity here.

However, at most people only dare to live in the small town at the foot of the mountains, and no one dares to enter the mountains. After all, who is not afraid of death?Although it is impossible to believe everything about gods and ghosts, it is always good to believe in some and have some fear.

At first, the owner of the teahouse thought that this person also came here to settle down. There is a small town a little south of here, and there are many people who come here, but he didn’t expect this person to ride a horse after resting. Headed north.

The owner of the teahouse couldn't help shouting at the guest: "Guest, if you go any further, you will be at Mount Dai!"

Going forward is Daishan!What the hell are you doing there?

Unexpectedly, the man just turned around and nodded: "I'm going there."

When the owner of the teahouse heard it, he seemed to have seen a ghost. So there really are such people who are not afraid of death these days?But he heard that even those monks in the Jianghu dare not go there, so he doesn't look like a Lianjiazi?

The owner of the teahouse shook his head, lamenting that there are strange people and strange things every year, and he soon ignored them.

The sound of horseshoes changed from sharp to slow, and it also brought some crisp sounds of treading water.

It's raining.

The man took out the bamboo hat and coir raincoat that he was carrying on the horse and put them on. The whole forehead was covered by the bamboo hat, and the hem of the coir raincoat covered his neck tightly. After changing these, he continued Drive towards the destination.

Thinking of what he was going to do later, the corner of the man's mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile. The joy was so overwhelming that it was so incompatible with the bad weather of the pouring rain.

It was raining heavily, and there was a danger of mudslides in many places. When we got here, there was no one guarding us, so we could use our swords.

Riding on the back of the sword, at the speed of Yujian's flight, the rain from the sky hit his face painfully, but, obviously his body was suffering, but there was a smile on this man's face.

When he saw the destination he was going to arrive in front of him, the smile in his eyes was brighter than the water droplets on the young leaves when the sun shines after the rain.

I am coming.

black.

Total darkness.

20 years of blindness.

It was from body to mind, dark, cold, and dark.

His time forever stayed on that day 20 years ago, the darkest moment of his entire life.

The head that was gurgling and turning around on the ground, with blood gushing out, became a lingering image in his mind.

It was a dream, it should be a nightmare.

Be it a dream or a reality, what Qin Jiu can be sure of is that the current him is forever trapped in that nightmare, unable to get out.

That black, closed nightmare that gives no respite.

When the scene of opening up the world appeared in front of his eyes, the Jade Emperor's Peak, which had been broken apart and re-growthed 20 years ago, collapsed again, and when a glimmer of light appeared in front of Qin Jiu's eyes, the first thing he felt was surprise.

Someone dared to disturb his sleep, it was quite courageous.

Then, it was the joy that watered his whole body.

The body is more honest than the heart.

It is true that even though he has been closed for 20 years, even though his heart does not want to return to this world without that person at all, his body cannot withstand the artificiality. Once he is released, he will feel a great pleasure from his limbs and bones, and his whole body will feel comfortable.

It's just that, compared to ordinary animals, human beings with advanced intelligence love to do things that they don't want to do. They call it cultivation. This kind of cultivation is especially important for monks. For Sheng.

Unexpectedly, Qin Jiu is still a monk with outstanding kung fu.

In the moment after seeing the sun, Qin Jiu's anger was more in that extremely small pleasure that only came from his body, and he wanted to hurry back to the shell he had been accustomed to for 20 years.

Just at this time, a blurry figure appeared in front of Qin Jiu's eyes. Facing the heavy rain, half of his face was covered by a bamboo hat. Qin Jiu couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, but, he guessed, there was He is the only one who can unravel his sealing technique and dare to disturb his sleep.

His eyes were blurred, almost subconsciously: "Qingshuang?"

"Light Frost?"

Looking at the blurry figure in front of him, Qin Jiu called out that name.

As soon as the words fell, the joy on the gray-clothed man's face gradually dimmed, like a child whose expectations had been dashed.

At that moment, it seemed that his whole world was dimmed, and even the words that came to his lips forced himself to bite his lips and swallow.

Facing the rain, with the light behind him, Qin Jiu couldn't see the expression on the man's face.

"No, I... I was sent by Lord Luo Ziyi to rescue you."

The monk walked towards Qin Jiu step by step, and Qin Jiu also gradually saw the appearance of the man. He looked ordinary, and Qin Jiu didn't know him.

Qin Jiu smiled suddenly, and that smile was full of mockery: "Save me? Hehe."

As he spoke, Qin Jiu hugged the master's head with one hand, and a black light suddenly appeared in the other hand, and he made a gesture to move towards the strange monk!

Qin Jiu knew very well that his junior brother would never disturb his sleep unless there was something really urgent, because Luo Qingshuang knew the pain in Qin Jiu's heart better than anyone else, knowing that letting him out would only harm him, let alone save him. he?This strange monk lied and didn't type drafts, disturbing his sleep, he really deserves to die.

When the monk saw this, he panicked immediately, he quickly squatted down, hugged his head and ran towards the open space.

This is very abnormal. Most people look for shelter when they encounter danger, but this person ran towards the open space, as if he was afraid that others would miss him.

This subconscious reaction is a bit like...

Qin Jiu vaguely remembered that the big red birthmark on the back of that person seemed to have suffered a landslide and was hit by a boulder. Perhaps it was some sequelae. Whenever that person was in danger, he would hide in the open space .

Qin Jiu, who was acting aggressively because of "getting up", suddenly calmed down, frowned, and put away the magic breath in his hand.

He snapped: "Speak! Who sent you?"

The timid monk saw that Qin Jiu had absorbed his supernatural powers, so he stood up in shock, rolled his eyes, and then said: "My lord, it's a damn thing for disturbing your sleep, but you can't sleep like this forever , if you continue to sleep, you may not see Master Luo for the last time before you meet the person you want to see!"

Qin Jiu ignored the man who just avoided his question, and his attention was attracted by the man's last sentence: "What do you mean?"

The monk explained: "Lord Luo, he may not live long..."

"Injured?" Qin Jiu subconsciously felt that the kid must have been beaten outside because of his excessive personality.

The monk shook his head with tears in his eyes: "No, he is sick."

"sick?"

The monk nodded again: "You don't know what has happened in this world after you fell into a deep sleep, and what Master Luo has experienced."

Qin Jiu has just woken up from a dream, and he doesn't care much about these mundane things. He also hates the feeling of waking up. Once he returns to reality, he will be forced to face the bloody reality. Really, can't bear it.

In his life as Qin Jiu, there are only two important people in his life. Now that one is gone, there is another one left. I also paved the way for him back then, and never owed him anything. Now Qin Jiu, I just want to live for myself, and I don't want to be disturbed by other things anymore.

Or maybe it's the self-enclosure over the years that made my heart turn cold.

Qin Jiu said: "People are always going to die, I can't take care of him forever."

I don't know how many years I will have to close myself, Luo Qingshuang can't live forever, right?

The monk immediately panicked: "But...but, you can't leave Lord Luo a mess and leave him alone, you don't know what he has gone through all these years alone, only you can save him, you are his The last relative, if you don't care about him, there will be no one to help him!"

"The last relative?" Qin Jiu was stunned.

Seeing that Qin Jiu's expression was loose, the monk hurriedly said, "Yes, Luo Ziqian died saving Luo Ziyi in the battle at Daishan, and Master Luo also..."

"Wait a minute!" Qin Jiu heard something was wrong, why did Luo Ziqian die to save Luo Qingshuang?Didn't I already pave the way for Luo Qingshuang?

Qin Jiu put down the head in his hand, and sealed him deep in the mountain with a spell. He asked the monk, "Tell me specifically, what happened after I was buried in the ground 20 years ago?"

Seeing this, the monk smiled.

Although he looked ordinary, he couldn't see it clearly through a rain curtain. Qin Jiu felt that when this man smiled, he was quite gentle and heart-warming.
