Chapter 64 Sand Sea
Song Jun opened her eyes and found that she was lying on the ground, and the slow breathing of the crowd came from all around.With the faint firelight, she saw Lu Ran's worried eyes.
Song Jun sat up straight suddenly, the exhaustion in her soul made her almost fall back to the ground again.
In her vague memory, she seemed to have gone to a ghostly place like a fairyland.There is smoke all over the sky, gold everywhere, and sparkling lake light.Um?Why is there a lake in the desert?There seems to be a mountain that can erupt?
What's all this mess?
She tried to remember.The burning flint is like thousands of bursting fireworks, drawing hot arcs in the air.Then there is endless darkness.At the end of the darkness, there is a light, and where the light shines, it is...
what's going on?
Song Jun looked at Lu Ran blankly.But when Lu Ran saw that she was awake, she looked away and continued to connect with Ruomu.
Beside him, Duanmujian still closed his eyes tightly, his brows slightly frowned.
Song Jun was startled, and reluctantly leaned over, trying to check Duanmujian's situation, but was stopped by the stiffness and pain coming up from the back of his neck.She twisted her sore neck with difficulty, glanced at the thin blanket on the hard ground below her, and probably knew what was going on.
Tsk, stiff neck.
A stream of devilish energy handed over a elixir for replenishing qi and sustaining spirit.Yi Yao glanced at her lightly, signaling her to continue resting.
Song Jun took the pill in a daze, a little confused.Where did the magic cultivator come from?How could a demon cultivator get mixed up in this group of upright immortal cultivators?Shouldn't you hurry up to subdue the demons and defend the way, and save it until the Chinese New Year to get rid of demons?
But why can't I feel the killing intent from this demon cultivator?It seems that in the dream, this magic cultivator saved them?Um?There is such a good thing?Now the demon cultivator is about to compete with righteous people for jobs, who is more like a living Bodhisattva?
Song Jun frowned, and cautiously looked at Yi Yao who had become a stranger in front of her.Yi Yao didn't care about her. Seeing that Song Jun had calmed down, after careful inspection and swallowing of the elixir, he withdrew his mana, and wisps of devilish energy secretly wrapped around Lu Ran's wrists and ankles, touching them intimately.
Lu Ran closed his eyes and connected his field of vision with Ruomu, as if he didn't know anything about the devilish energy that was making trouble on him.
Song Jun was furious.
Molesting her junior brother in front of her own senior sister.This Demon Cultivator is so courageous.
Lu Ran's expression gradually became serious.His lips were pursed tightly, and his temples were covered with sweat.The magic energy extended upwards, gently wiping away the sweat.Then he began to push forward, under Song Jun's eyelids, carefully rubbing the boy's white jade-like cheeks.
Song Jun jumped up against the case.
Since this demon cultivator is so heartless and shameless, there is nothing wrong with her being cruel, right?
Yi Yao detoured a bunch of long black hair behind his ears, and glanced at Song Jun who was unilaterally at war with him in surprise, and it was clearly written in his eyes:
"I, a demon with unknown identity and ulterior motives, is rubbing shoulders with your pure and innocent senior brother. Why don't you, as a senior sister, avoid suspicion and pretend not to see it?"
Song Jun was about to be laughed out of anger, and accidentally twisted her neck which was still sore and stiff, and was almost forced to cry rationally.
At this moment, Lu Ran, who had been silent all this time, opened his mouth with a solemn tone:
"Song Jun, use the Qingluan Jade Pendant to send a message to Duanmujian. Try to say something memorable."
The temple has been bombed, and the commandment not to call others by their names naturally no longer exists.
Song Jun was taken aback, her heart sank.She guessed that Duanmujian might be alone in the dream, his mind was bewitched, and he wanted to rely on the memories of his close ones to awaken his wandering mind.
She dragged her still weak body, moved to Duanmujian who was still asleep, and held her cold hand.
Some fragmentary memories came to my mind, Song Jun calmed down, took out a jade pendant from her cuff, while casually recounting the past when the two met when they were young, while trying to recall the adventure in the dream.
Lu Ran let out a low sigh.
The jade talisman transmitted by the sound transmission of the Kunlun divine bird can cross the barrier of dreams.
I hope this time, I can also catch up with time.
----------------
After the original land was destroyed, they once again fell into darkness.Both Duanmujian and Song Jun looked solemn, and Ruomu no longer jumped up and down, but quietly hovered beside Yi Yao.
Duanmujian and Lu Ran are both weapon repairers.When they saw the hut with rough technology in the original land, the two of them vaguely felt that this time travel in the dream might have returned to the original starting point.Pushing it forward, it can only be nothingness.
Opening his eyes again, the dark red sky reflected the barren scorched earth on the ground.Surrounded by rolling, seemingly innocuous mountains, it encloses a vast central basin plain.A towering mountain stands in the center of the basin plain, piercing into the clouds, as if it can communicate with heaven and earth.
Only this time, there is no longer a bright silvery white streamer, like the melting snow on the top of the mountain gurgling down.The jungle is silent, the rocks are silent, and the high mountain is like the faded corpse of a giant, like all other ordinary mountains, standing in place without a trace of life.
There is no one around, just a silent nothingness.
But no one dared to act rashly——
Because of the weird and eerie bloody sky above his head.
The sky seems to be covered with flocculent clouds, and the dark red streamer flows through it, dyeing the strands of cloud into scarlet, extending to the distance, and finally ending in a void of whiteness in the extreme distance.
It is not a fire cloud that heralds a sunny day, nor is it a fish scale cloud that heralds a rainstorm.It is more like an overturned mountain range in the sky, and the mountain ranges and ravines stretch all around until the white edge is far away.
It is also like a huge cobweb, the densely packed spider threads are entangled together, forming several terrifying scarlet vortexes, extending to the infinite white nothingness, wrapping the dome tightly.
Or the bloom of the biggest, most magnificent, and most wicked flower in the world.The mesmerizing flowers are blasphemous even to look at them.The petals of the crown stretch to the white edge of the world.The texture is full of messy lines and dirty spots.
And at the starting point of the mountain range, the center of the spider web, and the center of the petals, there is a huge circular black spot.
A black hole almost the size of a town, hovering just above the high mountains in the middle of the plain.Without any impurities, without a trace of light.The radiance cannot be reflected, and the interior cannot be dissected.There is only a pure, bottomless, unobservable, and unreasonable darkness that almost swallows the mountain top.
The blood-red sky, the unfathomable black hole.A biting chill seeps from the depths of the soul.
Song Jun and Duanmujian could hardly look up at the sky, and reluctantly insisted on straightening their backs, their clothes soaked in cold sweat.
The spiritual weapon Ruomu trembled, and wanted to fly up into the air to investigate, but an invisible pressure shackled Ruomu to the surface.Ruomu's weak wings fluttered, but he was unable to break free from the shackles of the heavy pressure.
Yi Yao raised his head, and glanced at the bloody sky without hesitation, his eyes were deep, and there was a sneering cold smile of contempt at the corner of his mouth.Hooking his hands, he put the wobbly Ruomu on his shoulders.
Facing the high mountains with exhausted luster in the distance, there is a flash of warm and bright light.Another rocky mountain rose up on the plain at some time, and a cave was dug out of the hard rock wall, and the flickering fire came from the cave, carrying a tempting warmth.
One of the two emissaries of ghosts and spirits, the firefly of Grandmaster Taixi's "Taiyi Formation Spirit", stayed in place, and the dark green light spots danced and circled by themselves, no longer pointing out new directions.
The pale white ghost of the Sumuya people showed its figure in the green fluorescent flashes, and the diamond-shaped tattoo pattern could be vaguely seen on the bare skin.The translucent soul exudes a dim silver-gray light, like the mist between the mountains and mist in the morning.
Several people watched vigilantly the spirit of Su Muya's ancestors who quietly appeared.Soul just stood there silently, and made no other movements.Yi Yao does not interfere with the action, and Lu Ran's Ruomu is not convenient for communication.Song Jun and Duanmujian discussed quickly, and decided to walk towards the bright light, Ruomu flew behind them, monitoring the movement of Su Muya's soul behind them.
When they set off towards the light, those silent gray-white souls suddenly began to move.They followed behind a few people, turned their backs to the high mountain in the center, and walked towards the tempting light.
There are more and more ghosts, there are tens of thousands of people, it is like an army of undead.It seemed that all the people in the original land followed behind them.
Looking far away through Ruomu, a huge cave can be vaguely seen ahead.And with the footsteps away from the mountain, the oppressive feeling that weighed heavily on the body seemed to gradually disappear.The few people seemed to be going downhill, their steps became lighter and lighter, their mood became more and more relaxed, and they couldn't wait to walk towards the light.
Lu Ran felt something was wrong.His soul was trapped on the flesh/body by hundreds of Buddha nails, and he only shared the dream vision with Ruomu through the soul lamp, and his spiritual body was not affected in any way.
When he saw Duanmu Jian and Song Jun, who were cautious, galloping towards the cave as if they were fleeing, he immediately noticed that the situation was different.Ruomu fluttered his wings and rushed to Duanmujian's body at high speed, his wings vibrated at high speed, and in front of Duanmujian, he easily cut off a strand of long hair.
Duanmujian stared blankly at the falling black hair, his expression was confused and bewildered, as if he was experiencing some kind of bitter struggle.He wanted to grab Ruomu who cut off her hair and beat him up, but he also wanted to forget about it and move forward quickly.
really.Although Duanmujian is keen to study the way of fishing, but as the first batch of young geniuses who broke through the Yuanying realm in the early Yuan Dynasty after 20 years of silence without Yuanying in the world of cultivating immortals, it is impossible for him to be unprepared. Succeeded in a surprise attack by a low-level magic weapon.
A trace of returning clarity flashed in Duanmujian's eyes.
Song Jun still looked longingly at the light ahead, with a hint of anxiety and eagerness that she didn't realize: "Why don't you go? Go quickly."
Yi Yao wasn't affected at all.Ruomu followed Song Jun and Duanmujian, so he followed Ruomu.Now that Lu Ran urgently forced the two of them to stop, he naturally stopped too.
The outline of the cave in the distance became clear.The majestic stone pillars and architraves are quite familiar.
Duanmujian's sanity was affected by the dream, and he was not fully awake.However, she still recognized that this was the gate of the temple that the villagers of Sumuya entrusted her to rebuild, and changed dozens of plans back and forth.
Lu Ran has already used a sound transmission jade pendant, but the blue bird has not been seen for a long time in the dream.This long delay was something that had never happened in previous dreams.
Lu Ran felt uneasy.This scarlet world is far more eerie and spooky than the other layers of dreams before. I am afraid that there is only the Qingluan talisman in the world, which can still break through the barrier to convey the message, but it will definitely take time.
But as Taiyi's youngest junior, it's not his turn to show concern for senior brothers and sisters.Lu Ran crazily complained in his heart that Zhou Qingluan was not good at academics and lost the chain at a critical moment, while tugging on Yi Yao's sleeve: "Tell the two of them that we can't go any further."
Yi Yao did as he did.As the three of them stopped with one weapon, the army of tens of thousands of souls behind them also stood still in place.
Song Jun was very impatient: "Why can't you leave? It's almost here."
Duanmujian pondered for a moment: "It's really impossible to go forward."
She looked back at the high mountain behind her, her eyes dodged, but she still couldn't look directly at the huge black round spot on the sky above the mountain:
"This is the land where the Sumuya people settled, and it retains the original landform. From the wilderness, the ancestors of Sumuya appeared who migrated. Time can no longer go backwards, and it begins to flow down. And then What happens, we all know."
Song Jun calmed down, gradually regained her senses, and murmured, "The volcano erupted."
Duanmujian looked grim: "The surging magma will completely destroy the plain, not to mention that we have been going downhill just now. No matter what is there, it is impossible to exist. This is not the way forward."
Song Jun's eyes regained clarity, and she understood Duanmujian's meaning:
"The group of undead will only follow us and follow our lead. If history is to repeat itself in sequence, we should take them away from the volcanoes surrounding the plain and flee to the highlands. But..."
She looked at the illusory temple gate with warm light shining in the distance in confusion, and desperately suppressed the strange longing in her heart: "But even if you escape to the high ground, how many people can survive? Everything will be destroyed, and now there is no one at all. Know the story of the original land of Sumuya. Does it make sense to escape...?"
Song Jun's eyes were a little dazed: "We are very close to that cave...there should be a temple there. The temple suddenly appeared here after thousands of years, if dreams and reality have interconnected intersections..."
"Yes." Yi Yao interrupted her calmly: "There is the exit of the dream. Enter the temple, and you can return to reality with all the memories in the dream. How about it, do you want to go in?"
Both Song Jun and Duanmujian fell into hesitation.
In the temple, Yi Yao relayed the current situation to Lu Ran.Lu Ran looked at the two people who were in deep thought, feeling a strange feeling in his heart, and asked Yi Yao quietly: "The dream...is it far from over yet?"
Yi Yao showed a slight smile, and rubbed Lu Ran's phalanx intimately with his fingertips, raised his index finger with his other hand, and put his index finger on his well-shaped lips, and let out a boo.Attached to Lu Ran's ear: "This is our secret, don't tell them easily."
Lu Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry:
"I won't say it. I have nothing to say. Some things can't be put into words. It's just..."
Yi Yao rubbed the top of Lu Ran's head, knowing what he was worried about:
"If the two of them fail, I will complete the final return."
He originally came here to take care of the bottom line because the young people in the world of cultivating immortals are not very reliable.
Duanmujian looked longingly at the shining temple.
It's a shining road, safe and secure,
Anyone knows the ending of Dream's End.Huang Liang has a dream, and it will end when the dream wakes up.The clear memory turned into a broken butterfly at the moment of waking up.
The real temple has been destroyed, and those magnificent scenes only remain in their minds.The land of gold, the land of floating... The glorious civilization should not disappear in the sea of sand in obscurity.Whether it's a damaged mural on the wall, or a line or two of unclear words, even if it's just a pile of dead bones, it's all proof of their existence.
And if she chooses to enter the temple—in the dream, the whisper from the dark sky promised her——
Just by entering the temple, she is allowed to wake up with a memory.They can reproduce the scene at that time again, and let the stories buried in the sand sea resound through the boundless sand sea along the wind.
The dead have turned into wind and sand.All they can do is to try their best to preserve the last vestiges of this little thing.Isn't this huge dream just because this ancient country, which has been lonely for thousands of years, longs to be reminded of its former glory again?
What's more, the unknown sky cave above the top of the mountain behind.
Contains infinite unknown fear, so chilling, even the soul is frozen.People just want to get into the warm and comfortable temple with beating fire.
Lu Ran could feel the inner struggle of the two of them.A strange sense of déjà vu welled up in my heart.He is obviously not even in a dream, and can only rely on Ruomu to share his vision, but he seems to be able to fully feel the entanglement between the two of them.
It seems that at some point, they also faced the same choice.
And the only answer has already been given.
Lu Ran sighed: "Why don't you give me a hint?"
With a slightly coquettish tone, he said, "To be honest, I also kind of want to read the next story."
In the dream, Yi Yao glanced at the two men who were hesitating.In reality, Yi Yao helplessly squeezed Lu Ran's hand.Lu Ran knew that he had promised himself and wanted to give them a push.
He felt a trace of joy of being pampered, controlled Ruomu, and flew lightly by Song Jun's ear.The flying magic weapon kept touching Song Jun's cheek, guiding her to look behind her.Feeling encouraged by Ruomu, Song Jun suppressed the fear in her heart, turned around and raised her head to look at the silhouette of the mountain under the blood-red sky.
Lu Ran in the temple and Yi Yao in the dream spoke together.The same gentleness and softness, and the same indestructible power.It seems that Yi Yao is not relaying Lu Ran's words at all, but at this moment, the two are connected with each other:
"Civilization will not be born toward destruction, but will only be revived for continuation."
"Sumya, the country of thousands of years, has struggled for thousands of years because of a few pitiful records."
"Do you really want to erect the tombstone early at this time?"
Song Jun pondered the meaning of Yi Yao's words, pursed her lips and remained silent.
Another slow, hesitant voice came from behind her: "I have a question."
Duanmujian looked at the sky with a confused expression:
"If the original land was really completely destroyed in the volcanic eruption, how did the subsequent god-sacrificing land appear?"
The author has something to say:
The retrograde dream is about to return~
(I don’t know if I’ve written it clearly. Can you see that the order of the previous world is reversed? For example, although the Golden Country is written first, in the real historical timeline, the Golden Country is actually after the Floating Country. And from this The beginning of the chapter, it is time to perform in sequence.)
Scarlet Sky may not have a sense of picture right now, but after the end knows the truth, it should be √
