Chapter Five Hundred and Fiftieth Eight Breakthrough State of Mind

Shi Mu was overjoyed.

The door of light in front of him gave him a feeling that it should represent the end of the Dao of Magic and Demons.

This is not a misleading illusion, but an intuition from the deepest part of my heart.

He took a deep breath, and took a big step towards the light gate, and then the scenery in front of him changed again.

When he came back to his senses, he found himself standing on the shore of a vast sea.

"Is there the last illusion?" Shi Mu glanced around, with a relaxed smile on his face, and murmured.

But he didn't worry about anything and was full of confidence.

Although to the outside world, he may only have experienced it for a short time, but he has truly experienced seventeen times of spiritual sharpening.

Now his mind is not only tenacious, but also as pure as ice and snow, and he is sure that he can break any illusions that appear.

"No, here..." Shi Mu glanced around a few times, his expression changed.

Not far from him is a small village near the sea. Several dilapidated fishing boats are parked by the sea. With the waves rising and falling, a few rows of big trees are planted at the entrance of the village, and the sea breeze makes a humming sound.

Everything looks very familiar, this is not anywhere else, it is his hometown, that small fishing village.

woof woof!

A half-big yellow dog ran out of the village, barking a lot.

"Rhubarb... Shi Mu looked at the yellow dog, his eyes blurred for a moment, and he muttered.

This is a dog from his neighbor's family, who used to be very close to him.

The yellow dog opened its mouth and stuck out its tongue, the dog's face was excited, and ran straight towards Shi Mu, jumped into Shi Mu's arms, jumped up, with two front paws resting on Shi Mu's body, the wet dog's nose pressed against him intimately Sniffing on the body, rubbing against it from time to time.

Shi Mu squatted down, stroking the yellow dog with his hands.

"Mu'er, where did you go out to play again, and you came back so late." A gentle female voice came from the front.

Shi Mu raised his head, his head was pounding, and the blood rushed to the top of his head unconsciously.

Not far ahead, a young woman in plain clothes came over.

This person looks to be in his twenties, and his appearance is not very outstanding, but he is very gentle and quiet, giving people a feeling of great peace of mind.

"Mother..." Shi Mu stood up slowly, his expression excited, and he called out.

"Mu'er, what's wrong with you?" The young woman walked to Shi Mu's side, and gently stroked the top of Shi Mu's head.

Shi Mu was startled, his height only reached the young woman's chest, he quickly looked at his hands, and what caught his eyes was a pair of tender little hands.

He walked quickly to the edge of the water, looked inside, and a child's face appeared on the water.

"I turned into a child...this is an illusion..." Shi Mu muttered to himself, wanting to remind himself.

"Mu'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" The gentle young woman quickly grabbed Shi Mu and touched Shi Mu's forehead.

Shi Mu smelled a reassuring smell in his mouth and nose, it was indeed the smell of his mother, he stood obediently, and was hugged by the young woman, feeling a burst of satisfaction in his heart, he couldn't help wishing this moment would last forever.

"Maybe I've got some wind and cold. Come home with me, the weather has turned cold, and the sea breeze can no longer be blown." The young woman touched Shi Mu's forehead, but she didn't feel too hot, she was slightly relieved, and pulled him towards Go to the village.

Shi Mu felt a little dazed, and was dragged by her obediently, and walked into the village.

It was dusk at this moment, and most of the village was lighting a fire to cook. Seeing the two of them, they all greeted each other.

"Brother Heiyu, Da Zhuzi, Uncle Nine..." Shi Mu looked at these familiar people, and heard the familiar voice in his ears, his heart fluttered.

Hei Yu, Da Zhuzi also looked like a child at the moment, and Uncle Jiu was still a man of middle age.

The young woman pulled Shi Mu to a small courtyard and walked in.

"Wan Jun, why did you come back?" Just as the two entered the yard, a strong man came out of the house.

This person's complexion is slightly dark, but his facial features are correct, his eyes are piercing, and he looks very energetic.

"Father...Father..." Shi Mu looked at the man in front of him, was startled, and couldn't help but froze there.

In his memory, his father left the village when he was very young to pursue the way of the warrior in his mind, and he only has some vague impressions.

But father and son are related, blood is thicker than water, when they meet, he immediately recognizes them.

"I went to find Mu'er, he was playing by the sea." The young woman looked at the strong man in front of her, her eyes were full of tenderness and love.

"Mu'er, don't play outside so late at night and make your mother worry about it. Also, the seaside is dangerous, so don't go there in the future!" The strong man frowned, looked at Shi Mu, and sternly shouted.

Shi Mu looked at the strong man with flickering eyes.

The situation in front of him is quite inconsistent with his memory. He seems to be seven or eight years old at the moment. At this time, his father has already left the fishing village, so why is he still here.

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Seeing that Shi Mu was silent, the strong man frowned and shouted.

"Okay, Mu'er may be sick today, so don't scold him anymore." The young woman hurriedly stopped Shi Mu.

"What? I'm sick, can I have Dr. Wu at the entrance of the village see it?" Hearing this, the strong man showed a nervous look on his face. He held Shi Mu's hand, and a wave of hot air permeated over Shi Mu's body. walked around.

Shi Mu's expression changed for a while. Although his father was strict, his concern for him was not false, which was quite different from the impression he gave his father.

After the three of them ate some food in a hurry, the strong man immediately walked towards the village, saying that he was going to invite a doctor, while the young woman quickly boiled hot water and scrubbed Shi Mu's body.

In the end, after a lot of busy work, they didn't both rest until it was quite late.

Shi Mu lay on the bed and looked outside, his parents were sleeping outside the door.

Countless thoughts passed through his mind, and his eyes were reddish.

He stayed away from his hometown, studied art with a teacher, and everything was for his mother.

But the wish in his heart since he was a child was not this, but to have a warm family and loving parents. Unfortunately, this wish became an unattainable luxury after his father left home.

Shi Mu knew in his heart that everything in front of him was an illusion, but this beautiful dream, he really couldn't bear to destroy it.

He looked outside, his eyes flickering, and finally he sighed and closed his eyes.

...

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Shi Mu has been in the village for more than ten days.

His father went out to sea to fish every day at dawn, and taught Shi Mu some boxing skills in his spare time, while his mother took care of the housework at home and handled everything in an orderly manner.

A family of three, life is very happy.

Shi Mu immersed himself in it, gradually substituting himself into his childhood self, enjoying all this.

On this day, Shi Mu was sitting in front of the door, watching his mother doing laundry in the courtyard, his eyes flickered, as if he wanted to engrave this scene deeply in his mind.

Father went out to sea to fish in the morning and did not come back.

Thumb up!

A burst of hurried footsteps came in from the outside, but it was a young man with an anxious expression on his face.

"Sister Shi, it's bad! Something happened to Brother Shi. He encountered a sea beast on the sea, his boat was crushed, and he was seriously injured. He was found by Zhuzi's boat and rescued. But..." the young man said urgently .

"But what, where is he now?" Shi Mu's mother's face changed drastically when she heard this, she stood up suddenly, and she didn't feel the slightest thing when the wooden basin was knocked over.

"It's at the beach right now, hurry up and have a look..." the young man said.

Before she finished speaking, Shi Mu's mother rushed out of the yard and headed towards the seaside.

"Xiao Muzi, come quickly, your father seems to be dying..." The young man said to Shi Mu who was sitting on the threshold, then turned and walked towards the sea.

Shi Mu sighed, his eyes flickered, as if he had made some decision, he walked towards the beach without haste.

When he got to the beach, there was already a large circle of people, and Shi Mu's mother's cry came from the crowd.

Shi Mu separated from the crowd and walked in.

I saw his father lying on the ground, his face was ashen, without a trace of blood.

There was a horrible wound on his lower abdomen, and blood was gushing out. An old man next to him hurriedly applied some herbs to the wound, trying to stop the bleeding, but it didn't work.

Ni Mu's mother hugged her father, and let out a suppressed cry, full of despair and sadness.

The people around also looked sad, and some women couldn't help crying secretly.

"Xiao Mu..." When the father saw Shi Mu, there was a gleam in his eyes, his body moved, and he tried to raise his arm.

Shi Mu moved his eyes, walked over, and squatted down in front of his father.

"Xiaomu, I can't do it anymore. From now on, your mother will be taken care of by you... You are a man from the Shi family, so you must take good care of your mother..." The father's tone was weak.

Shi Mu looked at his dying father, sighed suddenly, his eyes flashed coldly, and he raised his hand.

A golden sword light shot out from his hand, piercing through his father's body in a flash, and piercing through the body of his mother who was about to hold him.

The father was dying at first, but at this moment, the sword light penetrated his body, his eyes stared, and he lost his breath immediately.

"Xiao Mu, what are you doing..." The mother's body froze, with blood pouring out of her mouth, she looked at Shi Mu in disbelief.

Shi Mu had a complicated look in his eyes, and he stood up slowly.

"Stop pretending, you are very accurate, my mother is indeed the biggest weakness in my heart, but no matter how you make illusions, my mother has already died, and people cannot be resurrected. What I can do now is to complete the original love for my mother. It's just a promise!" he said.

The mother's figure flickered and turned into a puff of black air. There was a scream from the black air, which dissipated and quickly disappeared without a trace.

Everything around him instantly collapsed into nothingness.

Shi Mu's eyes blurred, and he reappeared on the black crystal path. Half of his body was in the white light gate, and his foot had not yet collapsed.

At this moment, Shi Mu's state of mind was unprecedentedly calm, and the eighteen phantom experiences flashed through his heart one by one like flowing water, as if a big rock had been laid down in his heart, and he felt a faint sense of enlightenment and breakthrough in his state of mind.

He took a deep breath, with a calm smile on his face, and stepped into the light gate. (To be continued.)
