Just hear a pop.
Xie Luohe knelt on the ground in despair, motionless, like a stone withered.
Kneel down for a long time.
True.
Zheng Xiu's expectations for "Gong Nie's treasury" are not as high as those of Xie Luohe.
But after all, there is something to look forward to.
He originally thought that the key to leaving the cannibal painting was Chi Chi, so he did not hesitate to bleed heavily and use his ultimate move.
After repelling the Shenwu Army, he unexpectedly entered the treasure house, only to receive such an uncomfortable result.
The treasure house is empty.
is empty.
Everyone's pursuit and treasure hunt came to nothing.
Zheng Xiu stepped forward silently, crossing Xie Luohe who was kneeling motionless on the ground to investigate.
The empty boxes in the treasure house were piled messily on the ground.
There are drag scratches on the floor.
The scratches were covered with a layer of dust.
By the light of the ever-burning lamp, Zheng Xiu noticed that there were circular hollows on the wall, as if something had been inlaid on them but had been dug away.
In the distance, there is a cave on the wall that only allows one person to pass through. There is a faint sound of wind coming from the cave, which seems to lead to the outside world.
"It's a tomb robber. I don't know how many years ago, he emptied the treasure house."
Zheng Xiu suddenly realized that this was the case.
No wonder there are many caves and secret passages left on Bashan Mountain. It turns out that "predecessors" were constantly digging holes to explore the location of Gong Nie's treasure house.
They entered the treasure house not through an underground river, but through a separate tunnel and entered here.
It was eerily quiet in the treasure house.
There was only Xie Luohe's long breathing and Zheng Xiu's silence.
While Zheng Xiu was exploring the inside of the treasure house, Cheng Xiao, Bai Xiaosheng and others got into the cave one after another, quickly walked up the slope and came to the door.
Everyone is interested in the secret of Nie Gong's treasure house.
Whether it is for the "sword", for "wealth", for "secrets", for "returning to ordinary people", or for "ambition".
Even the dying Xie Yunliu was no exception.
Chu Chengfeng helped Xie Yunliu, whose head was full of blood, climb into the cave. Xie Yunliu was so lost in the lake that he couldn't open his eyes, but he repeatedly murmured the word "treasure house".
When they saw the empty treasure trove, they had mixed reactions.
Chu Chengfeng looked at the empty treasure house with disappointment in his eyes, grinned, and then laughed self-deprecatingly.
Xie Yunliu stared and closed his eyes and passed out.
Bai Xiaosheng stood in the distance blankly. After a while, he took out his fan, shook it, and smiled in relief.
Cheng Xiao stood at the door holding his broken knife. The emptiness inside the treasure house was clearly visible. He stood for a while, then with a straight face he took out the four seasons map he had worked so hard to get from his arms and threw it into the air. The knife flashed, The Four Seasons Picture was chopped into pieces by Cheng Xiao with several knives.
Zheng Xiu just wanted to stop him, but Cheng Xiao's sword attack was too fast and too abrupt. By the time Zheng Xiu wanted to speak, the Four Seasons Picture had turned into confetti flying and falling all over the sky.
After doing all this as if to vent his anger, Cheng Xiao looked at the broken knife in his hand. After a long while, Cheng Xiao put the broken knife back into its sheath with a loud sound and left silently.
Zheng Xiu returned to Xie Luohe and saw Xie Luohe with his head lowered and his bow clenched, not knowing what he was thinking. He originally wanted to say a few words of comfort, but looking at Xie Luohe, Zheng Xiu didn't know where to start.
Bai Xiaosheng came up at this time and patted Zheng Xiu on the shoulder: "Look away. For this shabby treasure house, Hidden Sword Villa was destroyed and Dugu Xiang's head fell to the ground. Since the secret was leaked, all the dead and disabled people have died these days. I don’t know how many people have died overtly or covertly in the world for these four things. Compared with them, we are just in vain. At least we are still alive, so be content!"
"I'll take Lao Xie back to town to heal his wounds first!"
Chu Chengfeng smiled dryly, carried Xie Yunliu on his shoulders, and walked out of the treasure house.
Bai Xiaosheng glanced at the two people who were leaving, and sighed softly: "Well, this "secret" is so boring, I should leave."
After taking a few steps back, Bai Xiaosheng stopped and turned back. A smile appeared on his face and he rubbed his hands together: "Brother Gongsun, the treasure house has been wiped out. I am heartbroken. I wonder if my dear brother Gongsun can help me clear up my doubts so that I can help you." I won’t come back empty-handed from this trip?”
Zheng Xiu wondered: "I am penniless, what do you want?"
Bai Xiaosheng raised his index finger mysteriously.
This action made Zheng Xiu's eyelids twitch, and he almost couldn't help but punch him.
Bai Xiaosheng said: "I only ask for an "understanding". In exchange, I will not record the affairs between you and her in the "Weapons Book", and I will keep... "secrets" for you."
Zheng Xiu didn’t care: “In full view, it’s no longer a ‘secret’.”
Zheng Xiu was referring to the fact that he performed magical magic in front of so many people.
"No." Bai Xiaosheng shook his head: "What you see may not be true, and what you hear may not be true. Even if they tell it, no one in the world will believe such a mysterious thing. It will only be regarded as a joke."
Zheng Xiu asked: "What do you want to know?"
Bai Xiaosheng lowered his voice: "Who...are you?"
Zheng Xiu was stunned for a moment, then relieved after a moment. With Jiang Pang's character, it is extremely difficult to suppress this problem until now.
After thinking about it, Zheng Xiuxin realized that there was no need to forcefully hide it at this time, so he said: "The stranger."
Hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng looked startled, and then chuckled: "Weird, different, different from ordinary people, what a 'weird'!" After sighing, Bai Xiaosheng shook his robe and held his fists towards Zheng Xiu. , bow down, this is a "big gift". Zheng Xiu quickly lifted Bai Xiaosheng's elbow.
Bai Xiaosheng said: "Thank you very much!"
Zheng Xiu shook his head: "Pang Jiang's words are serious!"
Bai Xiaosheng was angry: "What a fat kid, I am a Jianghu Baixiaosheng! I know everything, know everything, and everyone respects Jianghu Baixiaosheng!"
"Got it! Fatty Jiang!"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Fatty Jiang turned around and waved his hand to Zheng Xiu smartly: "The green mountains will not change, but the green water will always flow! Young brother Gongsun, Mr. Xie, we... will see you later!"
"See you later."
Zheng Xiu smiled and bowed his hands to Jiang Panggong, who walked out of the treasure house coolly, and said goodbye.
No one noticed that when Fatty Jiang said the words "See you later", Xie Luohe, who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, trembled slightly.
The remaining bandits outside, who fought desperately against the Shenwu Army, all looked pale and disappointed after learning that the treasure house was empty.
Zheng Xiu and Xie Luohe were the only two people left in Duke Nie's treasury.
"Since it's empty, let's go back."
Zheng Xiu stretched out his hand towards Xie Luohe.
Xie Luohe was motionless, breathing weakly.
"Shelo River?"
Only now did Zheng Xiu realize the strangeness of Xie Luohe.
He could understand Xie Luohe's mood.
But Xieluohe seemed to...kneed for too long.
Xie Luohe has always given Zheng Xiu a "powerful" impression. This impression is almost engraved in my bones along with the three words "Sierlo River". Zheng Xiu thought that Xie Luohe would be sad, but for her, it shouldn't take much time to adjust.
The Shelo River is moving.
She held the longbow, her quiver now empty, no more arrows missing.
"Shelo River?"
The atmosphere suddenly solidified.
Something is wrong.
Xie Luohe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. She stood up and smiled sweetly at Zheng Xiu: "I can't go back."
Zheng Xiu took a step back violently.
The Xieluo River slowly filled the long bow.
Boom!
The bowstring is broken!
But Xieluohe still maintained the action of "drawing the bow", as if there was an "invisible" bowstring between Xieluohe's fingers, and she pulled the bowstring into a full moon.
"You can't go back, no one can go back."
Black and strange lines instantly covered Xieluohe's face. In the treasure house, the dust on the ground suddenly blew away at the moment Xieluohe "full" the long bow. With Xieluohe as the center, the surrounding area was as clean as a wash and spotless.
Xie Luohe had a charming smile on his face, but he exuded a tangible "murderous aura". Zheng Xiu took a few steps back in shock. Xie Luohe stood at the entrance intentionally or unintentionally, blocking Zheng Xiu's escape route.
Behind Xieluohe, black fog invaded silently, and the huge shadow blocked the light of the ever-burning lantern.
ever.
A black "arrow" appeared strangely on the long bow without a string.
The missing arrow is not material, it seems to be condensed from black flames.
As the black arrows solidified little by little, a terrible strong wind blew the empty boxes in the treasure house into powder.
Xie Luohe's long hair blew up, revealing her right eye that she had been deliberately hiding.
She looked at Zheng Xiu with a smile, and a black light flashed in her right eye from time to time.
Deep in the familiar hole, the word "Ding Wei" flashed for a moment, and Zheng Xiu's stunned figure was reflected for a moment.
Zheng Xiu touched the pen on his waist, but the broken pen could not draw anything and could only be used as an iron rod.
But at this moment, Xie Luohe was inexplicably murderous. What was the use of Zheng Xiu's iron rod?
He held half of Luo He's pen in his hand, which was filled with cold sweat. The murderous intent released by Xie Luo He was like sharp knives, which made Zheng Xiu's skin ache.
In the treasure house, Xie Luohe bent his bow and aimed at Zheng Xiu. Although the black arrow made little noise, it exuded "something" that made Zheng Xiu's scalp numb.
The black arrow lost its tip, glowing with a strange and magnificent brilliance. The shadows of red flowers flickered on the missing tip of the arrow.
It was not the mysterious "killing intent" or "power", but a more pure feeling. At this moment, the arrow in Xie Luohe's hand disappeared, the ominous black color, and the coquettish flowers made Zheng Xiu remembered... "Eternal Darkness"!
It's the "filth" from Chang An!
Zheng Xiu silently hung half of the Luohe pen back on his waist.
"You are Fengbei or Xieluohe now."
"Guess?" Xie Luohe smiled slightly, his posture unchanged: "Or, who do you want me to be at this moment?"
Under Xie Luohe's teasing gaze, Zheng Xiu thought seriously for a moment, and then nodded: "If I had to choose, it would be you, Xie Luohe."
"..." Xie Luohe's eyes wavered, but his expression remained calm. After silence, he asked, "Why?"
"There is no reason." Zheng Xiu spread his hands and smiled: "I saved her in Baili Village back then. If Fengbei turns around and wants to kill me, I will be sad. But you are different. You and I don't owe each other. You kill me. , I’m not as good as others, so I don’t blame anyone.”
"Aren't you afraid of death?"
Xie Luohe asked.
"If you have really "died", you should be able to understand that "death" itself is not terrible." Zheng Xiu inadvertently remembered his experience of coming back to life among ghosts. At this moment, facing the terrifying arrow from Xie Luohe, Instead, he felt sad: "I suddenly remembered something."
Xie Luohe nodded: "Say."
"There are three "rebirths" in a person's life, one is when he is born, the second is when he becomes an adult, and the third is when he is recorded in history; there are also three "deaths" in a person's life, one is when his heart stops, and the second is when he is carrying When someone is reviled by thousands of people, it is commonly known as social death; the third time, it is when the person is completely forgotten by the world."
Zheng Xiu counted on his fingers in front of Xie Luohe: "Look, compared with the other two deaths, the first death is actually nothing. Even the pain is extremely light, it takes a blink of an eye."
Xie Luohe's face was expressionless: "Are you done?"
Zheng Xiu pointed to his chest: "I know that your arrows are all missed, so today I really want to see if your Xie Luohe arrows are really that amazing and never miss their mark."
"Kill me." Zheng Xiu looked at Xie Luohe calmly, and revealed a fact that Xie Luohe had never said: "As long as you kill me, you won't become "Fengbei", right?"
When Xie Luohe heard this, his hands shook violently, and there was struggle in his eyes.
really.
Zheng Xiu knew that he was right.
It wasn't until Xie Luohe used his "filthy energy" to condense the arrow and aimed it at himself, that moment when he really had murderous intentions. Zheng Xiu recalled Xie Luohe's previous strange words and deeds and the anxiety he inadvertently revealed, and finally understood one thing.
In fact, Xie Luohe knows that one day she will become "Feng Bei". She is not stupid. She has already known that this world is "false". She knows that one day she will admit this fact, and then everything about her will be restored. Replaced by Feng Bei.
She is unwilling, she is unwilling, so she longs to "return to normalcy". Only when "Strange Fengbei" disappears can she truly survive as "Xie Luohe".
This is a battle of ideas.
One thought arises, one thought dies, and one thought will determine whether she is Xie Luohe or Fengbei.
Xie Luohe's eyes were cold, and he had an iron horse inside.
The flashing red flower's light and shadow became more intense when the arrow missed.
Her hands suddenly stopped shaking.
Xie Luohe suddenly let go of the illusory bowstring.
The stream of light composed of black and red light passed by Zheng Xiu.
boom!
The black stream of light shot through the mountain wall and shot straight into the sky.
Although the dark light passed by Zheng Xiu's side, the remaining power of the arrow actually scraped off Zheng Xiu's shirt, revealing his strong pectoralis major muscles.
Zheng Xiu looked back and saw a huge cave leading straight into the sky. The diameter of the cave where the arrow was missed was two feet wide, and its surface was as smooth as a mirror. It was not so much a big hole where the arrow was shot, but it was covered by something. It looks like it was cut out.
The bright sunshine is pouring in outside.
Zheng Xiu felt cold all over and was sweating. The power of this arrow was no less than that of Feng Bei who shot with all his strength.
If Xie Luohe had not moved that arrow, let alone shot it through his chest, he would probably not have much left behind.
Xieluohe crushed the bow and let out a hoarse roar, like a trapped animal at the end of the road.
"ah……"
"Ahhhhh..."
"Ahhhhhhhhhh..."
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Xie Luohe held his head in despair, whined hysterically, and burst into tears.
For the first time, Xie Luohe showed her weakness and helplessness in front of Zheng Xiu. At this moment, Xieluohe seemed to have become another person.
Zheng Xiu felt an inexplicable twist in his heart and stepped forward to embrace Xie Luohe into his arms.
Xie Luohe held Zheng Xiu tightly with both hands, and scratched several bloody wounds on Zheng Xiu's chest with his nails.
"Help me...save me..."
"I am not Feng Bei, I am... Xie Luo He, I am, I am, I am Xie Luo He."
"Save me...Gongsun Mo."
"I beg you……"
Xie Luohe burst into tears.
"Gongsun Mo..."
