Chapter 1214 Who Am I?
The rotten gourd that Li Chuyi never left behind was actually left in the last molted shell, while the Yazi sword and other treasures were nowhere to be seen. It was thought that they were taken away by him.
Although he was puzzled, Hao Youxiao was secretly relieved. No matter what the reason was for Li Chuyi to leave the rotten gourd, the appearance of the rotten gourd completely proved that the molted shell did belong to Li Chuyi, and he was still alive. This was what Hao Youxiao wanted to know most.
Lu Gu also saw the rotten gourd and recognized it as a magic weapon carried by the Taoist priest, and later gave it to Li Chuyi for protection. She didn't know why the rotten gourd was left here, but she vaguely felt that this was not a good sign. After a little thought, she looked at San Tiao.
"Little thing, can you still sense where your master might be?"
Lu Gu asked, and San Tiao shuddered and shook his head cautiously. Seeing Lu Gu's eyes glaring, he immediately shrank back. This time, he refused to even show his head and stayed in Hao Youxiao's collar and never dared to come out again.
Looking at the master helplessly, Hao Youxiao patted his hands in comfort, and finally looked to the west.
"He should have gone to Tianmen Mountain and Taixu Palace!"
Hao Youxiao's tone was very sure.
"Li Sinian said that he vaguely remembered what Sister Yu said to Chuyi before she died, which made him furious. We have been heading west all the way, and now this dead forest passage also points to the west. All these show that Chuyi's whereabouts have a great relationship with Sister Yu's dying words. I suspect that Sister Yu was forced to leave Taixu Palace not only because of Motang, but there is very likely another hidden story, so Chuyi was so angry when he knew it. He wants to go to Taixu Palace, he wants to ask for an explanation for Sister Yu, even if he is very likely to have lost his mind now, he can't forget this obsession, because Sister Yu has always been in his heart..."
Before he finished speaking, Hao Youxiao sighed softly, picked up the rotten gourd and hung it around his waist, and turned to look at Lugu.
"Master, I'm going to Taixu Palace."
Although it was a bit unpleasant, she couldn't just watch Li Chuyi seek revenge. Besides, Yu Yao's fate was indeed tragic. Even she felt sorry for him after she found out.
Let him go through fire and water.
This was a long-determined decision, and there was no need to hesitate.
After looking at her deeply for a moment, Lu Gu smiled gently and gently touched her hair.
"Master will accompany you."
Hao Youxiao just wanted to get the master's consent, but didn't want the master to take risks with her. Just as she was about to refuse, Lu Gu stretched out her finger and gently pressed her lips.
"Such an interesting thing, how can the master miss it? It just so happens that I haven't been to Tianmen Mountain for a long time. This time I will treat it as a revisit to the old place. If this trip is fine, it's fine. If that kid really has something to do with Taixu Palace, hum hum, the master's "colorful colors" are many~!"
Looking at Lu Gu's eager face full of girlish excitement and expectation, Hao Youxiao couldn't help laughing out loud, and his heart was warmed and his body was much more relaxed.
She had seen the power of Taixu Palace during the Wolong meeting. If she went alone this time, she would be under great pressure.
Now that she had Lu Gu by her side, it was different. Lu Gu was the most powerful person in the human world. Because she was obsessed with poison, her cultivation was slightly inferior. However, her painstaking study of poison day and night brought her amazing combat power far beyond her cultivation level.
Take the "colorful and beautiful" just mentioned for example. This is the most powerful poison that Lu Gu can refine at present. Its power can be seen from the series of city-destroying disasters in Dayan Imperial Capital and the subsequent city-destroying disasters. If it is a one-on-one fight, Lu Gu is slightly inferior, but in terms of deterrence, she is definitely one of the most dangerous people in the human world. In the eyes of some people, she is even more threatening than a monster like Tianyi Daozun.
With her company, Hao Youxiao naturally felt much more at ease. Gently stroking the rotten gourd on his waist, Hao Youxiao looked to the west and prayed silently.
Fatty, you must stay alive!
At the same time, on the outer edge of the Eternal Rainforest on one side of Tianmen Mountain.
The dense forest is wet and stuffy. The heavy air that makes people breathless is mixed with a trace of rotten stench. Coupled with the breath of various poisons and the mysterious power unique to the Eternal Rainforest, they are combined into a series of poisonous miasma of various colors covering the forest.
If you don't know the way, even a master in the Ascension Period will be killed here, so it is rare to see people in the forest. Occasionally, there are disciples on duty in the Taixu Palace who come to patrol, but they are only limited to the safe range that has been explored long ago. For the forest that is not within the safe range, no one dares to break in even if it is only one step away.
The Eternal Rainforest is not famous for its evil reputation. If anyone can't resist curiosity and makes a foolish move, that small step away is very likely to become a life-and-death separation, separating you from the Yin and Yang.
This is true for the monks, and so are the birds and beasts in the rainforest. However, what they fear is not the poisonous miasma, but whether they will become food in the mouths of others.
The forests that look the same to outsiders are actually strictly divided into territories. The birds and beasts living in them each guard their own territory, always vigilant against the invasion of others, and at the same time always assessing the targets that can be used as food.
The weak live in the territory of the strong, being dispatched by them and being used as food from time to time, and the strong are the same, and will be enslaved by more powerful beings.
The intricate subordinate relationship has formed an ecosystem that is both stable and changeable. Fights and attacks occur from time to time, but the more powerful the existence, the less such situations occur. No one will act rashly without sufficient confidence.
From this point of view, humans are actually no different from beasts. The only difference is that the former is rational, while the latter is instinctive.
But today, the limits of the territory were broken.
First, the most powerful monsters became chaotic. Their instinctive intuition made them feel the approach of danger, and they fled madly to where they thought they were safe. There was chaos everywhere along the way. Countless birds soared into the sky, and countless insects, snakes and beasts followed blindly and fled in a hurry, but this did not change their bad luck.
An irregular black spot suddenly appeared above the ancient rainforest, where there should not be a space crack. After a moment, it suddenly expanded several times. The process was not a little bit of expansion, but like a wall being blasted through by someone. In just a moment, it expanded into a large hole that was a foot wide and high, and a slightly thin boy fell out of it.
The boy was surrounded by deathly aura, so strong that it even overwhelmed the aura of the void. The moment he landed, the surrounding forests began to wither and decay rapidly, and strands of vitality were extracted from their bodies and gathered towards the man in an endless stream.
[Pain! ]
The boy slowly stood up, his body trembling violently because of the unspeakable pain.
[Want to kill! ]
The strong killing intention filled his heart, but the boy was very confused. He looked up at the rapidly closing crack in the void, tilted his head and frowned to think.
[Where is this? ]
The surrounding environment looked familiar, especially the unique aura of the ancient rainforest that remained in the death aura made him feel familiar, which made him very confused.
[Who am I? ]
Another question came to his mind, and the boy was more confused and irritated.
It was clearly on his lips, but he just couldn't remember it. This feeling was enough to drive people crazy, so the killing intention in his heart became stronger, and he ran wildly with a wild howl, aimlessly colliding with everything he could see around him.
He didn't realize that he was so fast that he caught up with the beasts that had escaped in advance in a short time. He drained the vitality of all the living creatures he encountered, and turned all the places along the way into dead wasteland.
He also didn't realize that there were many terrifying creatures among the monsters he drained that he couldn't fight at all, but these ferocious monsters were all panicked and terrified in front of him at this time. Occasionally, a ferocious one turned around to kill him, but he turned into dry bones and scattered on the ground before he even got close to him.
The rich vitality gathered in his body continuously, and most of it was annihilated by the dead air in his body as soon as it entered his body, but a small part of it was stored in his flesh and blood.
After an unknown amount of time, his body suddenly stiffened, and the whole person slowly stiffened as if rusted. The skin and flesh on the surface of the body began to harden rapidly and condense into thick flesh cocoons. The outer layer of flesh cocoons was pushed open by the new flesh and skin, and it cycled back and forth until a bulging human-shaped cocoon bag was formed, wrapping him in it like a shell.
After a long time, the cocoon bag stopped expanding, and after a while, the cocoon bag on the face suddenly began to wriggle.
The things inside wanted to struggle out, causing the flesh shell there to bulge continuously, until the first tear appeared, and the front half of the cocoon bag was pulled down like a curtain, and the boy fell out from it.
The boy who saw the light of day again had the same face, but if you look closely, you will find that he is slightly rounder and more mature than before.
Getting up from the ground again, the boy began to think about the question that drove him crazy again.
[Who am I? 】
Looking down at his naked body, the boy thought seriously. After a long time, a new question suddenly popped up in his mind.
[I... seem to be missing something? ]
Frowning, he reached his hand into his crotch. The sparrow was safe, but this was not what he wanted to find. He wanted to find something else.
He always felt that there should be something else there besides the sparrow.
[Secret pocket... silver... pants, where are my pants? ]
Slightly startled, the boy looked at himself again, and another new idea popped up.
[I... why am I not wearing clothes? ]
Thinking of clothes, the boy subconsciously began to feel his chest, but he found something in his hand when he raised his hand halfway. He looked down and found that it was a beautiful long iron sheet.
[What is this? ]
After racking his brains and not being able to figure it out, the boy began to get irritated again. There was another commotion in the forest. The scope of the dead forest expanded again, and the boy struggled out of a new shell of flesh again.
This time, he remembered more, and most importantly, he finally remembered the question that drove him crazy.
[I am Li Chuyi. ]
Holding the Jiaozi sword tightly, Li Chu half-crouched in place, with a pair of yin-yang fishes faintly rotating in his eyes, and endless pain welled up. Two lines of turbid tears slowly slid down from the corners of his eyes, dripping into the thick dead ash under his feet, creating tiny holes one after another, just like his heart.
