After I cheated to die, I met the demon king who tried to die for love

The cry woke up many brothers and sisters, and they lit the lamps and rushed over. For a moment, the lights and moonlight illuminated the cramped walls, and everything that was difficult to detect under the dim moonlight just now appeared, only the four sides made of broken boards On the wall, there were dozens of deep grooves that were scratched out by claws or fingers.To grab these dozens of ravines, even if you dance with both hands, it takes more than a dozen times, but the short cry of the White Toad Palace just now stopped in an instant.

Xing Lin's hands trembled, his heart went cold to the soles of his feet.A pair of hands pierced through his shirt, holding his arms firmly.

It's Xun Weishu.

Outside the imperial capital city, in the wilderness, the moonlight was gloomy. At this moment, everyone finally dared not disperse.They all sat in a small circle around the bonfire with pale faces, almost hand in hand, whispering to each other, getting closer and closer to the bonfire, wishing they could sit in the fire.

It’s not that everyone is timid and careless, it’s true——Baichan Palace ranks eighteenth on the list of thousands of heroes, and even he disappears almost without resistance in a breath, and the rest—even Xun Wei Shu and Guo Buer were also shocked.

Xun Weishu and Senior Sister Li naturally noticed Xinglin's anomaly, without the two of them urging him, Xinglin absorbed his uneasiness about Guo Buer's troubles in the reeds during the day, and his uneasiness after discovering that she had three leaves and three fruits in her hairpin , All the surprises and doubts when encountering monsters are revealed.

Because they were all trivial speculations, which sounded absurd, so Xing Lin was embarrassed to tell anyone in the company that it was no longer because of it.He doesn't trust these people.

In the past few years, there has been a thin layer of veil between him and his fellow apprentices. They are clearly from the same faction and see each other day and night, but they are hazy with each other and can't get close to each other.

Needless to say, Xun Weishu, I am afraid that in this life I will look down on him because he is not pleasing to the eye. He grew up eating and living with him in the White Toad Palace since he was a child. After dying, I no longer have heart-to-heart contact with him.

Especially in recent years, Xing Lin knew in his heart that it wasn't that they couldn't walk into this mist, it was that he didn't want to come out.

But now it is different, a big living person has been lost, and his life and death are unknown.

After listening to his words, Senior Sister Li was startled and frightened, and fell silent for a moment. Woke up, Lin Qing stretched out his left hand and slowly unfolded it. The leaf was still intact in his hand.

Everyone took turns to look at Ye Zi, only Guo Buer, who was closest to him, stared at him for a while before saying, "Senior brother..."

She slowly and slowly stretched out her hand, picked something from the back of Xing Lin's head, and put it in front of his eyes: "Don't you know you have it too?"

It is also a leaf, exactly the same.

Xun Weishu was dumbfounded, senior sister Li was dumbfounded, and all the brothers and sisters present were dumbfounded.

Xing Lin himself was also stunned, and after a while, it was like a firecracker exploded in his chest, exploding all the goosebumps all over his body, leaving no one behind.The corners of his mouth that always loved to smile were flattened, and the leisure and leisure of the past finally disappeared.

Guo Buer's voice was a little tense, "When we went to the hut just now, there was no..."

Senior Sister Li and Xun Weishu exchanged glances, both of them clenched their swords tightly, opened all the organs of their bodies, and listened to the breathing of the night.

Originally, if something happened while away from home, the senior brother should take the lead in making decisions, but Xinglin has always been like a wild crane in the Dongshan School, so Xun Weishu spontaneously discussed with Senior Sister Li how to deal with the next step.

When they first came out of the sect, they encountered such a series of strange and unpredictable events, and even lost their seniors in the wilderness. Now the life and death of their juniors are uncertain, which is not something these young disciples can bear.

Because we are in the wilderness now, safety and danger are unpredictable, so everyone should be vigilant, as long as we watch until dawn, we will immediately leave for Yufang Palace - we should be safe when we arrive at Yufang Palace, and then immediately send a message to Yu Shangqing and Zhu Ruoyin through Yufang Palace .

Thinking of everyone's master, they feel at ease.

Dozens of young people gathered together in fear, each with their swords tightly clenched at the bottom of their sleeves, Xing Lin and Guo Buer were the focus of their eyes.

I don't know if those two leaves were a coincidence or something strange, Senior Sister Li was in a state of confusion, she closed her eyes, the two leaves were still dangling in front of her eyes, suddenly, her pupils widened, she stared at Xing Lin, and split her fork in a high-pitched voice , "Let me look at those two leaves again!"

Xing Lin was so startled that he almost jumped up, and stretched out his hand involuntarily.

His palm was very soft, with very light lines, and two leaves lay quietly in his palm.

It is not an ordinary slender leaf, it is shaped like a peach, with withered yellow color bands, and it seems that it has been away from the tree for some time.

Xing Lin felt that the two leaves were ominous, so he put them away.

Senior Sister Li seemed a little afraid of these two ordinary leaves, she stretched her neck to look at Xing Lin's palm, but she didn't dare to touch them.

Xing Lin was flustered, terrified, regretful, and worried. Seeing Senior Sister Li's appearance in his busy schedule, he still wanted to laugh: Although there is something wrong with these two leaves, it shouldn't be so frightened...

Senior Sister Li looked full, a small face left from Xing Lin's palm, and under the ruthless moonlight, her face turned pale with shock.

The ridicule in Xing Lin's heart ebbed, and he asked worriedly, "Senior Sister Li, what's wrong?"

Xun Weishu, Guo Buer and others all looked at her. She looked at these young faces, her throat trembled a few times, she was unable to speak, and she swallowed. The brothers and sisters said: "I know this leaf..."

Guo Buer wondered: "These are just two ordinary broken leaves...is there anything unusual?"

As she spoke, she went to touch her, and Senior Sister Li grabbed her desperate hand firmly.

"This kind of leaf is the leaf of a living tree, and there is only one living tree...the only one planted...in front of the Forgetful Moon Cave."

At the mention of these three words, everyone froze, even Guo Buer, who was as careless as the sea, stopped, and curled his fingers back involuntarily.

Dozens of people all wanted to pee.

On such a strange and desolate night, hearing those three words suddenly, even the heads of the Twelve Sects might not be any stronger than these young men and women.

Guo Buer's voice almost changed, she murmured: "Wangyue Cave... how do you know, senior sister?"

Senior Sister Li has a far-reaching gaze: "This is... I planted it myself."

"what?!"

Senior Sister Li took a deep breath, "Five years ago, when you were still young, our Hongyun sect was promoted by the immortal sect as the fifth among the hundred schools. At that time, the twelve masters gathered in front of Xianwanghai. Internal strife, the old devil was torn in half by the new devil, and all the mountain demons and little ghosts started to kill each other. The new devil may be red-eyed, may have lost his mind, and may have been aroused by his demon nature Anyway, it was a big killing spree. Seeing people killing people and seeing ghosts killing ghosts. After three days, they completely wiped out Wangyue Cave, which has been arrogant for hundreds of years. I was ordered by my teacher to wait together at Xianwang Beach—the young disciples are only three or five years old. Well, not every sect leader brought his trusted disciples—a dozen or so of us rushed up to the legendary Huishuo Mountain..."

"That day, the streams flowing down from Huishuo Mountain were all reddish. Once we entered the mountain gate, there would be corpses laying around every now and then—presumably those who wanted to escape but didn't escape—and as we went deeper, the corpses became denser and denser. Red, white, black, and brown liquids were splashed on the trees in the grass, and I couldn’t look closely at them. When I approached the Wangyue Cave, the plasma wreckage and corpses were already covered. What is the mountain of corpses, the hell on earth? gone."

Xing Lin remained silent, everything she said was something he had never heard before.

"The Wangyue Cave seemed to be holding some kind of banquet before the accident. There was a broken wooden platform in front of the cave, and a crystal-like transparent coffin was placed on the wooden platform-I still don't know what material it is. It is definitely not crystal. There seemed to be some faint light, the lid of the coffin was open, and there were two people lying on their backs beside them—they were the only ones on the broken wooden platform.”

Xing Lin held the hands in his sleeves tightly, and inserted his fingernails into the soft and soft palms.

"The head of the Yufang Palace, Guimeng Zhenren, and the head of the Dongshan School, Yumeng, stopped in front and refused to leave. Guimeng ordered us juniors to check if there were any survivors around, and then the twelve heads cautiously walked towards the broken room. After leaving the wooden platform, Senior Brother Gan Dihua from Yufang Palace and I worked hard for about an hour. After confirming that there were no survivors in the place we were in charge of, we went back to find the masters. However, when we returned, there was only one person left on the broken wooden platform. , not lying on his back on the coffin, but lying flat on the wooden platform, someone made it look like he was asleep. Around his neck was a snake-shaped collar with a golden body and red eyes. He was pale and haggard, but ...It looks very beautiful, Senior Brother Gan said that he lost most of his blood, and died of blood drying up, now his skin and flesh are still fresh, after a while, he will become a typical mummy."

Hearing this, Guo Buer forgot to be afraid, she suddenly interrupted: "This is the lampkeeper of the devil's lair. The one of the devil..." Halfway through speaking, she swallowed her own words, and seemed a little suspicious in the dark Red crept up her cheeks.

Senior Sister Li took a deep look at her, and said: "Yes, although they are both men, everyone in the immortal sect knows that they are named Demon Lord and Lantern Keeper of the Demon Cave, and they are actually lovers."

The Huishuo Mountain where tens of thousands of demons big and small gathered in the sea can be called the lair of demons, and the lair in the lair is a demon cave in Huishuo Mountain. The demons named it Wangyue Cave—— The name is strange and elegant. The Wangyue Cave is on the highest point of the mountain, with its back against the string and looking at the sea. Sitting on Huishuo Mountain, it has a panoramic view of the Shenzhou mainland in the northwest.

And in the Wangyue Cave, a ghost lamp is enshrined all the year round, which can absorb the Yin energy of the world. The demon bosses wantonly killed and looted the towns along the southeast coast. The most vigorous ones are kept in the devil's lair to harmonize with the dark ghost lamps of the day and the earth. The devil's lair calls them lampkeepers, and the rest of the teenagers are sent to do some chores to serve the big devils. A mortal who survives in the middle of nowhere is worse than a ghost.

"Senior Brother Gan Dihua, the first apprentice of Yufang Palace, is a kind-hearted person. It is said in the fairy sect that he is noble, kind and generous, and has a high level of cultivation. He is absolutely right. He saw the body of the lamp keeper lying outside the coffin. Then he became sympathetic and said to me: "This man is just a mortal. He was taken captive since he was a child. Everything he has suffered in this life is not what he wants. Besides, he has never heard of any evil. Now It is pitiful for him to be eaten by wolves, tigers and leopards in this wilderness, so let him rest underground.’”

"I have met a lot of people in my life, and I admire a lot, but there are really few people who can't fault it like Senior Brother Gan. I helped him put the lamp keeper back into the coffin, and sealed the lid. A hole was dug in the distance and the coffin was put in. I suddenly remembered that my master said that after the death of the lampkeeper in the magic cave, a tree that is unique to Huishuo Mountain must be planted on the grave——returning tree. There is only one tree, as if under a curse, only one tree can live in the world, as long as a branch is broken and planted elsewhere, the original tree will die immediately. I also thought this legend was strange at that time, so I looked for the living tree , and the broken branches were carried on the new grave."

"We have been busy digging holes and planting trees for a long time, but until the sun went down, a few brothers and I waited on the broken wooden platform until we almost fell asleep, and Master and the others came out of the devil's den. Master Yu of the Dongshan School They also asked me nervously why I didn’t see the lantern keeper, so I told them that Senior Brother Gan was kind-hearted and buried the lantern keeper, and Master and the others praised Senior Brother Gan, and then our group hurried down the mountain. By the way, when I left, I paid special attention to it, and the original tree that was still alive was actually dead."

Xun Weishu said: "The devil's cave has been in the mysterious world for hundreds of years, and there is something magical about it."

Then he said: "But on the day when the accident happened in the devil's lair, there was a little ghost who fled early in the chaos, and was caught by the senior brothers who guarded the nine gates and set up a net at the seaside. In the cave of the second poisonous corpse, the lamp keeper was bitten by the poisonous corpse and then poisoned to death, how could Senior Sister see him bleeding to death?"

Senior Sister Li was stunned: "I haven't heard of this statement...but there are many stories about the Devil's Nest in the market, so I can't take it seriously."

Xun Weishu shook his head slowly, with firm eyes: "I was looking at the seaside at the time, and I heard it with my own ears."

Senior Sister Li was confused, she tried to recall everything at that time, and shook her head like Xun Weishu: "Impossible, I remember very clearly, there were a few bite wounds on his body, but they didn't lose a lot of blood. Brother Gan Dihua and I were wondering where he lost his blood from."

Guo Buer saw that Xun Weishu and Senior Sister Li frowned, and interjected impatiently: "Maybe Senior Sister Li didn't see clearly at the time."

Then she asked the question she had wanted to ask a long time ago: "It is said in the market that the lantern keeper is beautiful. Senior sister, how beautiful is he? You are the only one we have seen here. Tell me."

Senior Sister Li seemed to have been set on fire by the wine jar, and instantly threw the doubts just nine days away. If it weren't for the life and death of Baichan Palace, she would be delighted, trying to restrain her agile eyebrows and the corners of her mouth, she said: "Hey , It's hard to describe, in short, he is the best-looking man I've ever seen... Although he was already covered in ashes at the time."

Her eyes lingered in the crowd, and she nodded at Xing Lin: "For example, Junior Brother Yu is also good-looking, but he is composed of seven points of beauty and twelve points of grace. The light keeper is different, he is very beautiful , it looks good when you force it!"

After hearing this, Guo Buer's face turned redder, and her eyes sparkled brightly. This discussion made her and Senior Sister Li forget the dangers and treacherousness of this place, Qi Qi's body is like floating clouds, his heart is like flying catkins, and his breath is like gossamer. .

Xing Lin who was named in the confusion: "..."

He looked at the burning flames, feeling a little funny, a little helpless, a little anxious, and a little unspeakable regret...and sadness.

"Senior Sister Li has won the prize. How can I get seven points, not even five points..."

Guo Buer said firmly: "Six points, you still have it."

Xing Lin again: "..."

Xun Weishu asked: "Therefore, there is only one living tree, and the lamp keeper is buried under it, and the entire Huishuo Mountain is sealed off by a formation, and the inside and outside are blocked. Then who picked the leaves of the living tree? Is it outside?" Did the people inside go in? Or did the people inside... come out."

"Also, senior sister, are you sure that everyone on the mountain is completely dead?"

Just now when the people who were full of gossip calmed down, Senior Sister Li said: "Several senior brothers were present at the time, and none of us noticed that there was a fish that slipped through the net. .”

If the leaves are still growing, is it because outsiders have entered?Who wants to enter that Huishuo mountain outside?The big and small monsters there have long been extinct, and there are no rare treasures hidden there, only corpses left in the wilderness or rotting in the ground...

If the people inside come out, then who will come out?
