Rebirth Against Heaven [Cultivation]

Chapter 8, Death and Life Choice

Afterwards, Xiao Yunhui summoned another disciple to bring lunch, saying that the kitchen specially made it for Fu Jun and Qin Zhan. The meal used a lot of ingredients that nourished qi and blood, but they were all warm, so they wouldn't be very hot or cold. Let the two eat it while it is hot, so as not to be ineffective and wasted.

Xiao Yunhui almost watched them finish their lunch, and gave a few more instructions before leaving.

After Xiao Yunhui left, the whole room fell into a momentary silence.

Fu Jun still didn't know how to get along with Qin Zhan, so he kept silent, and Qin Zhan seemed to have a pensive look on his face, but he didn't know whether he was thinking about his abnormality or something else.

Fu Jun suddenly felt a bit of a headache—he couldn't even see through the 15-year-old Qin Zhan now?

"Our elder brother is amiable and amiable, indeed as rumored." Qin Zhan said suddenly.

Fu Jun's heart skipped a beat, and he looked sideways at Qin Zhan, suppressing his emotions, and said slowly, "You don't like him?"

"How come?" Qin Zhan seemed a little surprised to look at Fu Jun, "A senior brother is willing to teach us, you and I should be able to avoid a lot of detours when we practice in the future."

Fu Jun didn't speak anymore, but he was thinking in his heart: If it's really Qin Zhan... then when exactly did Qin Zhan want to kill Xiao Yunhui?Not now, because Qin Zhan and Xiao Yunhui just met each other for the first time.

I only have three years... no, maybe less.

Fu Jun's heart throbbed suddenly, and an extremely terrifying thought came to him.

He wanted to stop himself from this thought, but the thoughts in his mind seemed to spread uncontrollably.

——If Qin Zhan is killed at this time, it will be over...all the things in the future...will not happen...

... In that case, the master will not die... Yanxue and Xin Jiu will not die... the senior brother also... maybe he can escape...

Why didn't he think about this idea before?Why did you suddenly think of it now?

Fu Jun stood up suddenly, took a big step back, and let his back touch the wall.

There was a burst of coolness from the wall behind him, but it was nothing compared to the chill he felt all over his body at this moment. It was so cold that he was trembling slightly uncontrollably, panting like a wild animal.

With a splitting headache, Fu Jun stretched out his hands to cover his forehead, closed his eyes, and felt that his chaotic thoughts gradually became clear.

But... no.

He can't.

He couldn't... rashly condemn Qin Zhan to death for something that Qin Zhan hadn't done at this time.

Moreover, just now when killing thoughts arose in his heart, his instinctive first reaction turned out to be to force himself to retreat.

Fu Jun opened his eyes with some resignation and despair, and met Qin Zhan's eyes that seemed both suspicious and clear.

...Habits are a terrible thing. It has been 15 years since he and Qin Zhan met at the age of ten, and they have also been brothers for 15 years. They have already developed the instinct to protect each other in their bones, instead of drawing swords .

Even in his previous life, Fu Jun had spent a lot of effort to make himself able to face Qin Zhan without any hesitation in taking out his sword.

At this time, Fu Jun had no desire to speak, but silently waited for Qin Zhan's reaction.

...With Qin Zhan's keenness, he should be able to detect it.

A wry smile sounded in Fu Jun's heart.

Qin Zhan also looked at Fu Jun quietly, as if a moment had passed, and suddenly said: "You want to kill me?" When he said this, his face looked extremely calm, but his eyes still had a trace of uneasiness. Solutions and doubts.

Facing Qin Zhan's straightforward questioning, Fu Jun could only be silent for a while.He really had the intention to kill just now, Qin Zhan was not hallucinating, and he was unwilling to lie by nature, even if the other party was Qin Zhan.But he couldn't tell the truth directly, but being silent like this was already an admission.

"Why?" Qin Zhan didn't let him go, and asked, "What did I do to make you hate me so much?"

Fu Jun was silent for a while, and finally said: "Don't you want to know what I saw in the illusion test?"

"What?" Qin Zhan paused, and said again, "Is it related to me?"

"Yes." Fu Jun's tone was calm after a great grief, "In the illusion, you killed...many people, including people you knew and didn't know...the friends I made in the illusion...and ...Master."

"Even kill Master? That'I' is really insane." Qin Zhan didn't seem too surprised, and said, "But a short hallucination is not enough to cause you such deep hatred. It must be your pain that makes you I still don’t forget it to this day. Was it you that ‘I’ killed last?”

"No..." The words of denial came to his lips, and Fu Jun swallowed them again.Fu Jun's thoughts suddenly changed, thinking that instead of saying the names of Yanxue and Xin Jiu and making Qin Zhan fall in love with them, it would be better to take everything on himself.So in the end, what Fu Jun said was a intermittent admission: "...Yes. You... controlled me with a spell, forced me to kill Master, and... attracted the ferocious beast 梼杌, let me... They were eaten by 梼杌 and suffered terribly painful torture.”

Fu Jun was really not used to lying, so it was quite difficult to answer, and he paused in a few words.But in Qin Zhan's eyes at this time, he just thought it was because Fu Jun was excited, so he couldn't make a sentence.

Qin Zhan fell into a brief silence after listening, as if shocked by what "himself" did in the illusion.Fu Jun didn't think about Qin Zhan's reaction, and silence was the most expected reaction.

After a while, Qin Zhan murmured as if to himself: "...it's almost..."

This sentence was beyond Fu Jun's expectation. Fu Jun couldn't help frowning, startled by Qin Zhan's implication: "What did you say?"

There seemed to be a trace of remorse flashing across Qin Zhan's face. He seemed to be annoyed that he had accidentally slipped his tongue. He paused and said, "I also saw some unimaginable scenes in the illusion. It is not different from what you saw... big."

What? !Fu Jun lost his voice and said: "You have never..." Halfway through the words, he stopped abruptly, as if he was suddenly strangled by the neck.

Fu Jun raised his hand to press his forehead.No, no, it was Qin Zhan from the previous life who didn't mention this at all!

Qin Zhan was calm at this time: "Yeah, I thought I was the only one who encountered those bad things, so naturally I don't need to say it, and it will make you feel uncomfortable too."

As soon as Qin Zhan finished speaking, Fu Jun couldn't help but asked immediately, "What did you see?"

He knew that what he said was a lie, but the current Qin Zhan should not be able to lie to him.

What Qin Zhan said was not much different...could it be that he saw himself turning against him and turning his sword against him?

The more Fu Jun thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Compared with Fu Jun's intense emotions, Qin Zhan seemed calm regardless of the context and attitude, as if it was a trivial matter: "It's nothing, it's just that I was tied to the rack and couldn't move, and The executioner is you."

Fu Jun fell silent, but couldn't help but asked, "What kind of punishment?"

"I almost forgot if you didn't mention it. It's really ingenious." Qin Zhan actually smiled.

"Qin Zhan!" Fu Jun snorted shortly, his tone of voice couldn't hide his anxiety.

Qin Zhan saw that his attitude was very serious, so he put away his joking attitude, sighed, and said, "Well, if you really want to know, I won't hide it from you." , "The 'you' in the illusion, the first cut is from here."

Fu Jun's pupils shrank, and he stared at Qin Zhan in disbelief.

"After that, I cut more than 300 knives in total? Or more than 400 knives? Anyway, I can't remember." Qin Zhan thought back, "The punishment of Ling Chi is only the first step, the second step is the punishment of inch, and then Yes...let me think..."

Qin Zhan saw that Fu Jun's face was getting paler and paler, so he suddenly stopped talking, and said with a slight smile, "It's okay not to say anything later. Anyway, it won't help the matter if you say it, and it will increase your troubles, so why bother?"

Fu Jun seemed to be taken aback. He was speechless for a long time, and only after a moment did he say with difficulty: "Why...you..." How could you be so indifferent?Can you still laugh?

Qin Zhan knew what he wanted to ask, and said, "I know it's an illusion. Even if he looks exactly like you, it's still not you. I believe that you will never treat me like this."

After Qin Zhan finished speaking, he seemed to feel that he was too frank, his face showed a rare uneasiness, and his fair cheeks were stained with star spots, which suddenly seemed to be in line with the age of a 15-year-old boy.

However, Qin Zhan is Qin Zhan after all, even though he is only 15 years old, he is already quite scheming, so calm that he is even more thoughtful than a 30-year-old person, so he regained his composure in the blink of an eye, as if nothing happened.

Fu Jun remained silent, but his left hand gradually clenched into a fist.

He gradually recalled that when he reunited with Qin Zhan in the illusion, Qin Zhan's face was indeed a little pale, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead, as if he had experienced an extremely fierce battle.

It's just that he was still very naive back then. Qin Zhan said lightly that the battle was too intense, he lost his strength accidentally, and was a little out of breath, but he foolishly believed it.

Thinking about it now, with Qin Zhan's strength and tenacity, his body trembled unconsciously at that time. Obviously he had experienced something extraordinary. Even though his mind was strong enough to bear everything, his body would inevitably leave a deep impression in a short period of time. imprint.

"Besides, why should I be jealous of you because of a mere illusion?" Qin Zhan said again suddenly, with a sneer on the corner of his lips, "Isn't that fulfilling the intention of the person who designed this illusion?"

Fu Jun was not stupid, he couldn't help being shocked by the coldness of Qin Zhan's words, fixed his eyes on Qin Zhan, and said, "What do you mean?"

Qin Zhan answered irrelevantly: "Do you still remember that the day before you and I accepted the trial assessment, we overheard the conversation of those senior brothers and sisters behind the firewood room—oh, now they are the former senior brothers and sisters?"

"..." Fu Jun couldn't answer for a while.There seems to be this incident in my memory, but I don't have the slightest impression of the specific details.

Qin Zhan didn't seem to be surprised: "You have nothing else to do, so naturally you didn't pay attention to what those people said. What they said was that the Trial of Illusion is actually very dangerous, and it can be achieved by very people, not everyone can do it like it said on the surface Try, and those who have the chance will succeed. In the previous two trials, not one or two succeeded, but quite a few failed. As for the outer disciples who failed, do you know what their real fate is?"
