Mu Qing was stunned, shook his head and said: "Ye Yun will never be my inner demon."
Ye Yun frowned. The implication of this young man's words was very strange. Who else could I be if I wasn't Ye Yun?
In the inn room, Tantai Feiyu opened his eyes, and Tantai Feiji quickly asked: "How is it?"
Tantai Feiyu's eyes stayed on his daughter and Ye Yun for a moment, and finally fell on Mu Qing's face, sighing: "It looks like the great road is backlashing, well, it seems not accurate enough." He looked at his brother, " You usually see a lot of things, has there been any record in the clan that if more than three innate source bodies come together, something strange might happen?"
Tantai Feiji shook his head and said: "The innate source body is rare, and there are only three of them. There is no one in the clan..." After saying this, his eyes lit up and he looked at his elder brother. Tantai Feiyu nodded, and Tantai Feiji continued. : "Maybe brother, your guess has some truth to it."
"Well, the longer I stay in this room, the deeper the feeling of being involved in the Tao or even the Tao of Heaven." Tantai Feiji knew that now was not the time to discuss Tao, so he quickly stopped his curiosity and looked at Xiang Tantai Feiyu asked: "How did the ancestor recover from such a backlash? It seems that he got rid of his inner demons."
"Yes." Tantai Feiji nodded and said: "You have to cut off the inner demons and always keep your mind clear. However, the ancestor seems to be saying that he shouldn't be like this when he is awake. The records say that most of the ancestor's words are regret."
"Ah?" Tantai Feiyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Didn't I harm those two little guys? How can I usually have time to read these dusty records?"
Tantai Feiji smiled bitterly and said: "You have to kill the inner demon, maybe you killed it wrongly. There are generally two types of backlash from the great road, physical or mental. Physical damage is like what Mrs. Wang is doing now. As for the backlash from the heart, you must have to kill it." It’s a heart-slaying demon, but you must make sure you’re doing what you’re doing, otherwise…”
Tantai Feiyu understood his brother's unfinished intention, nodded, closed his eyes slightly, and a little further away, a deep light of divine consciousness shined directly at the Shenzang point on Wang Yeqing's chest.
The clear wetness that soaked into his heart penetrated into his nose. Mu Qing quickly put his head in and shouted: "Uncle Feiyu, are you back?"
"Well." As the rain fell on the eaves, Tantai Feiyu's voice rang out again: "It is recorded in our clan that if you want to break the backlash of this kind of questioning, you really have to kill the inner demons yourself. I'm very sorry, I can only stay outside. I will protect your path, and I will only take action if your life is in danger, but that outcome will not be good for you."
Mu Qing nodded to express his understanding. Tantai Feiyu from the outside world was still waiting to use his spiritual consciousness to turn into rain to communicate, but he suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Strange thing."
Tantai Feiji on the side asked: "What's going on?"
Tantai Feiyu shook his head and said: "I originally wanted to point out some general directions for Mu Qing to identify the inner demons, but I found that my ability to transform rain into sound was transferred by space."
Tantai Feiji frowned slightly and guessed: "Perhaps the space where inner demons arise has certain characteristics, and other people except myself will be excluded or even suppressed."
"It's possible." Tantai Feiyu looked at Mu Qing and sighed: "This is also the first time I have entered someone else's backlash space. However, he is not old and has a high level of cultivation. He is not at the time of breaking through the realm. Why did he do this? Create inner demons?”
"So this is the weird thing you said, brother."
In the world behind the gate, the light rain was still falling in the sky on the side of the thatched cottage, and Mu Qing could still hear Tantai Feiji's voice: "If you want to find out the inner demon, you must start from the deepest part of your own emotions. , when the seven emotions and six desires are at their peak, they can give birth to a body and evolve into whatever you want most in your heart."
"Thank you, Uncle Feiyu." Mu Qing looked up at the sky, only to hear a vague response. The rain stopped, the wind cleared, and everything was quiet.
Mu Qing stared blankly at everything outside the thatched cottage, the blue sky and white clouds, clear ripples in the sky, the various colors of the rose, and the raindrops rolling down from the petals. The scenery of that day is reproduced above the thatched cottage, with melting sunlight and light spring breeze. Everything is so real, but everything is so absurd.
I just want to save someone...
The voice that sounded like Ji Muqing came back, "How was it? I didn't lie to you, just do it quickly."
Ye Yun stood by the window sill, looking at the back of the man standing motionless under the eaves outside the window.
Mu Qing's shoulders moved slightly, and he was immersed in counting his joys, anger, sorrows, loves, and desires. Only then did he realize that he was actually living in a hazy state. There were so many things he wanted to do, but he never seemed to think about doing them all. Go all out to complete it, whether it was to avenge Uncle Zhang at the beginning, to escape from the Hidden Valley, or to worry about it now, I really don't have the so-called desire to be strong.
He felt someone coming next to him and said, "You will probably think that I am talking too much. Haven't you realized that this world is actually fake?"
Mu Qing looked at that beautiful side face, patted his chest and said, "This is just my spiritual fetus, not my real body. Can't you tell?"
Ye Yun raised her eyebrows, feeling the vitality of the flesh and blood body, and shook her head without saying anything.
"Do you still think I'm your inner demon?" Ye Yun asked, alert and curious.
Mu Qing was silent for a moment and then said: "No, the desires in my heart are not strong, and there will never be any inner demons."
"Are you so sure?" Two voices sounded almost at the same time. Mu Qing was stunned for a moment before he realized that one of them was not his own.
Mu Qing frowned and remained silent. In the deepest part of his heart, he had always doubted the existence of this voice that imitated his own. As a result, as soon as his doubts became apparent, the voice never sounded again.
"Inner demon, inner demon, who is the inner demon?"
Mu Qing glanced at the flowers and grass in the courtyard as if he was going crazy. When his suspicious gaze was withdrawn, he was left with nothing but helplessness.
Hearing the noise behind him, Mu Qing turned around and saw Ye Yun returned to the house to sit cross-legged and meditate. After thinking about it, he followed her in.
"If you don't want to kill me, what are you going to do next?"
"Let's talk?"
Mu Qing had a feeling in his heart, but he couldn't see through it like window paper. He didn't wait for Ye Yun to agree and asked, "Where were you before you fainted?"
Before coma? Ye Yun's eyes moved slightly, with a hint of memory, and he said coldly: "In Qingchuan Pass Town."
"Who are they? Are there Mrs. Wang and others?" Mu Qing spoke a little fast.
Ye Yun nodded and said: "I rescued them in the forest and went to the town with them." She frowned and said: "It seems that Mrs. Wang was seriously injured. I was healing her, but when she woke up That’s it.”
Mu Qing moved closer and pointed at herself, "Mrs. Wang and I are together. Don't you have me in your memory? Am I Mu Qing?"
Ye Yun leaned her upper body back while sitting cross-legged, glanced sideways at Mu Qing's face, and after a long silence said, "No."
Mu Qing murmured: "Could it be that wanting to go out is not about solving my inner demons, but yours?"
"That's not right, you weren't there when I came in."
Ye Yun heard Mu Qing's muttering clearly. She took advantage of Mu Qing's daze to look at him a few more times, then looked at him a few more times and said, "Is this world really fake? You didn't lie to me. ?”
"Do I still have to prove it to you?" As soon as the words came out, Mu Qing's eyes lit up and he looked at Ye Yun.
Ye Yun frowned and said, "What tricks are you trying to do again?"
Mu Qing raised the pale golden sword in his hand, handed it to Ye Yun and said, "Stab me with your sword."
The long sword returned to his hand. Ye Yun had a strange look on his face. He looked at Mu Qing and rolled his eyes slightly. However, Mu Qing actively pushed his chest towards Ye Qing's sword, "Come on, give it a try."
At Mu Qing's speed, the tip of the sword was about to go into his chest, but Ye Yun moved the tip of the sword sideways by mistake. The blade was sharp and cut Mu Qing's arm directly.
"Look, it's okay... hiss - it hurts." Mu Qing covered his shoulders and squeezed his eyebrows together.
The pain this sword brought to him was no less than being kicked in the chest by a man in black robes. Mu Qing doubted that even being hit by such a sword in reality would not be so painful.
Ye Yun quickly moved the sword away. Her upper body that was leaning forward paused when she got closer. She took it back when Mu Qing wasn't paying attention. Her tone was a little unnatural, and she said with a smile that she didn't even know she had: "fool."
The sword just hit Mu Qing's arm, and she was confused and felt a little distressed for no reason.
Mu Qing laughed and said, "Look."
He exposed the wound on his left arm. Ye Yun looked at it carefully and found something wrong, "Hey, there are no traces of sword wounds."
Mu Qing shook his head and said, "No, the traces of the sword wound are disappearing quickly." The sword wound of less than two inches became much shallower and disappeared completely right in front of Ye Yun's eyes. "And there is no bleeding, right?"
"Yes." Ye Yun could still tell whether the other party was using illusions or other means at such a close distance. She stood up and walked to the window, looking at the scenery outside the window, with a look of surprise in her eyes.
Mu Qing walked up to her and said, "Do you believe it?" He looked at the roses in the courtyard, "Can you tell that this is fake?" He jumped lightly from the window sill and landed next to the rose bush. , reached out and took a pink rose in his hand, root and stem, and returned to Ye Yun.
He handed the rose flower to Ye Yun. Ye Yun was stunned for a moment and reached out to take it. Mu Qing pointed to the outside of the courtyard and said, "Look."
The rose that Mu Qing had pulled away before was quickly sprouting out of the ground. Its leaves were blooming and it couldn't breathe. But when the flowers bloomed, the flower in Ye Yun's hand was gone.
Mu Qing was also a little surprised and said, "You should believe it now."
"I didn't expect that there are still some rules in this illusion." Ye Yun's tone lost doubt and became more emotional. She looked at Mu Qing and said, "Then why did I forget you?"
"You have no impression of this thatched cottage, right?" Mu Qing asked, and Ye Yun nodded.
Mu Qing's tone became more confident, "So, as long as you have my memory, you have lost it."
Ye Yun looked at Mu Qing and said seriously: "It's a vague feeling of déjà vu. I want to remember but I can't."
His eyes lit up, he looked to the sky and shouted: "Hey, are you her inner demon?"
The sky that was originally clear suddenly suddenly changed, and all the blue sky and white clouds disappeared, leaving only endless darkness. The sky and the earth shook violently, and the thatched cottage collapsed. Mu Qing tightly hugged the woman beside him, and his body spun countless times, waiting for everything to fall. After a while, he found himself back by the river.
"Not bad. You can guess this."
Mu Qing withdrew his gaze from the face of the woman in his arms, looked straight into the depths of the mist, and said warily: "You are her inner demon."
"No, I made a deal with Him and now I'm yours."
