Xu Huaigu's face was dull, and he held his sword in front of his chest as a defense. He took two steps back and said, "Are you Yu An? Why are you here? This is impossible..."
Yu An opened his arms, smiled generously, and said, "What's impossible? In this land of the dead, the River of Forgetfulness, what's impossible?"
"Then why are you here?"
"The Forgotten River is originally the realm of the undead. Because I died saving you, the ferryman of the Forgotten River took notice of me and fished me out of the Forgotten River. I have been living in the Forgotten River since then. "
Xu Huaigu still felt it was incredible: "How could something like this happen in this world? Isn't it true that even the highest-level monks cannot be resurrected after death? Why can that ferryman do it?"
Yu An kept it secret: "I can't tell you too much about him. I can only tell you that he has already surpassed the level of ordinary monks and is the existence closest to God."
Xu Huaigu knew that there were actually many obscure secrets hidden in this world that were not accessible to him, so he stopped asking. But something suddenly occurred to him, and he felt like he was struck by lightning. He didn't dare to raise his head to look at Yu An.
Yu An asked him: "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Huaigu lowered his head guiltily: "I'm sorry for you. I promised you that you would take good care of Yu Qin, but now she is still in danger, and I am still so powerless. I have failed you."
"What's wrong with Yu Qin?"
Xu Huaigu said frustratedly: "I brought her to Xingqing, originally thinking of finding a good way to settle her down, but I left her for a while. Just in these few days, there was a ghost cultivator Yu Qin was also affected by the commotion and is still in a coma. If she doesn't find the antidote soon, she won't be able to hold on anymore."
Xu Huaigu knew that Yu An cared about her daughter the most and was willing to save Yu Qin even if she died. He really didn't know how to face the anger of his benefactor, and he became afraid because of it.
Unexpectedly, Yu An was just stunned for a moment, and then he said relieved: "If that's the case, then it's not your fault. Many things in this world are destined by fate, and the danger she is in now is far beyond your ability to save her. , it’s not your fault.”
Xu Huaigu looked up, full of doubts.
In his opinion, the fact that Yu An would say this in a calm tone was a greater shock to him than the appearance of the dead Yu An himself here.
Xu Huaigu carefully tested: "Although the hope is slim, I still have to do it. Since Yu Qin is not dead yet, there is still hope. I will definitely find the antidote and let her live well. This is what I want I will work hard to implement your promise, even if it means risking my life."
Yu An frowned: "Why bother? Why are you so embarrassed? Do you know how many difficulties are in front of you? Wangchuan is too dangerous. You will lose your life because of it. Is it worth it to sacrifice your life for others? "
Xu Huaigu asked back: "How could you say such a thing? Isn't that what you did that day by sacrificing your life for others? Isn't this your style of doing things by never flinching in the face of difficulties? Isn't that what you do?" What's wrong?"
Yu An looked a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained: "This is just my thinking before in the human world. Since the ferryman gave me a second life, I have learned more things. In fact, the scope of life is far beyond what we imagined. So narrow, I am living in another way now, my thinking is more correct now, isn't it?"
Xu Huaigu couldn't believe it. He felt that the man in front of him was exactly the same as Yu An, and there was no similarity at all.
He asked: "Then when you say these words to me, do you want me to give up searching for the antidote and let your daughter die in this world?"
Yu An replied: "It's not that bad. It's actually very simple. As long as you are willing to stay in Wangchuan, when Yu Qin's body dies in the human world, I will ask the ferryman to salvage her soul. Then the three of us will not Can we get together again?"
"What! Do you want Yu Qin to die and stay with you in Wangchuan? Are you crazy? Death is death. Even if your consciousness is still there, it is death. You actually have such thoughts, Don’t you want her to live well?”
Yu An was a little anxious: "What does it matter? The most important thing is not death and life, but that we are together. Don't you like Yu Qin? Don't you want to be with her? As long as you stay, you can be together forever If we live together, even if she doesn't agree, I can betroth her to you, don't you want it?"
Like Yu Qin?
Xu Huaigu was inexplicably depressed.
He doesn't feel like he likes Yu Qin. His feelings for Yu Qin are very simple, just a desire to protect and abide by Yu An's last words. But who can say for sure? Even Xu Huaigu himself didn't know why the first person he saw in the stream of Wangchuan was Yu Qin playing music under the moon.
But Xu Huaigu absolutely sneered at Yu An's suggestion.
He retorted: "Regardless of whether I like her or not, I will not do this. But if I really like her, I will definitely not use such despicable means to get her, and I will save her. Here Is Wangchuan or the human world more suitable for her? And you, what's wrong with you, why are you completely different from the Yu An I knew before, who only had Yu Qin in mind?"
Yu An looked struggling and said, "Why are you so ignorant? I gave you such a good condition, aren't you even a little bit moved?"
Xu Huaigu said firmly: "No, even if you are his father, I will never allow this to happen. I will find the antidote and save her, even if it costs my life."
Yu An finally couldn't suppress his anger and cursed: "Then you go die!"
When Yu An said these words, there was a faint black energy all over his body, like an evil cultivator who had gone crazy.
Xu Huaigu was shocked. How could Yu An look like this?
Gradually, Yu An's face also changed. His face became long and narrow, and his complexion also turned dark. The black face had no facial features, only two whites of eyes, and was hateful and terrifying.
Xu Huaigu was frightened back several steps and said in a deep voice: "You are not Yu An!"
The black humanoid creature raised its slender arms, touched its face with its fingers, and said with a strange smile: "Jie Jie... of course I am not that human being, I am just the most guilty and deepest inner demon in your heart. As long as If there are things in the human heart that cannot be let go, I exist.”
Xu Huaigu understood that this should be the so-called illusion. He should have fallen into this illusion when he fell down the valley, and there must be something in this illusion that triggered his inner demons.
He was very embarrassed by this and said angrily: "Since you dare to impersonate Yu An, then you will die today!"
It smiled even more mysteriously: "Jie Jie Jie... It seems that that human being and the stupid promise you gave him are indeed the things that you can't let go of the most. To tell you the truth, as long as you can't let go of it in your heart, I will never let it go." dissipate."
How could Xu Huaigu care so much? He rushed forward and slashed with his sword, directly cutting the black humanoid creature in half.
The black creature didn't care at all about Xu Huaigu's sword. Even though its body was split into two parts, the corners of its mouth still rose. Then its body gradually dissipated into a piece of black energy, and then floated behind Xu Huaigu, re-condensing the human form.
It stretched out its fingers, put it on Xu Huaigu's shoulders, and bit Xu Huaigu's ear: "What, you don't believe me? Why don't you use your sword again to see if you can kill me?"
"Just try it!"
Xu Huaigu slashed away with his sword again, but the situation was exactly the same as last time, and the black energy still condensed into that creature again.
"Jiejie...can't you do anything to me? If you can't do anything, I will take action next!"
It turned into black energy and rushed straight towards Xu Huai Valley.
Xu Huaigu gritted his teeth and held the sword in one hand, still ready to try to see if he could kill it.
The black figure was as fast as a ghost and arrived in front of Xu Huaigu in the blink of an eye. Xu Huaigu quickly drew his sword, but the moment he drew his sword, a beautiful face appeared in front of his eyes.
It's Bai Xiaoyu.
Xu Huaigu's heart tightened and his sword movement stopped.
The black energy hit Xu Huaigu's chest hard. He spurted out a mouthful of blood and flew far away. The long sword in his hand also flew far away.
The black creature appeared in front of Xu Huaigu and mocked: "This woman is also a very important thing in your heart. How about it? How does it feel to be deceived by her?"
Xu Huaigu licked the blood from the corner of his mouth: "She didn't deceive me, it was your trick!"
Xu Huaigu saw that the long sword had already flown away, so he had to draw out the dagger from his waist and said to the black creature, "Come again!"
"Jiejie...satisfy you!"
It turned into black energy again and hit Xu Huaigu's chest. This time Xu Huaigu was determined to use this sword, but when the black energy reached his eyes, he still hesitated.
Because what he saw was Li Zi.
So he was hit again and spat out a large mouthful of blood, lying on the ground exhausted.
"Why, you still can't take action? If you still don't dare to take action, you will die here, Jie Jie..."
"Last chance, let's see if you are brave enough!"
Xu Huaigu struggled several times before he managed to stand up. His right leg had lost all feeling and he could only rely on his left leg for support.
Xu Huaigu's eyes were ferocious and he said: "Do it again! This time, no matter who it is, I will not stop the sword!"
It said confidently: "Interesting... let's wait and see."
This time, its speed was faster. Almost the moment he finished speaking, a familiar face appeared in front of Xu Huaigu's eyes.
Not very beautiful, but still pretty.
Simple, like a hibiscus sprouting from water.
Xu Huaigu knew it was an illusion. He wanted to draw his sword, but at this time the dagger seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and remained motionless.
Xu Huaigu felt that he would definitely die if he didn't draw his sword.
However, the sword cannot come out.
Negative thoughts flashed through Xu Huaigu's heart.
Just die, it's nothing special. Maybe a ferryman will pick him up and let him and Yu An and Yu Qin be together forever.
Yu Qin's face in front of him began to become vivid, and a picture gradually transformed into a picture.
He seemed to have had a dream.
