Chapter 258: Loneliness
As the purple light ball in the cave faded, at that moment, the sun and the moon lost their color and the mountains and rivers lost their sound.
With his outstanding self-healing ability and the help of the Red Peach Card, Pu Zixuan can still use his weak purification power to illuminate the square place, support the hole wall, and barely stand up. However, his feet are always dull and soft and weak, get up, fall down, get up again, fall down again...
Moving his body with difficulty, he finally came to the side of the robot arm. Pu Zixuan reached out and hugged the heavy object in his hand and wiped it hard. There was still a trace of residual heat at the joint with the former owner's broken arm.
At this moment, the insects in Lushan still screamed. If you listen carefully, you can still hear the ghostly sounds.
This woman who came here from a distant foreign ghost town spent the last part of her life in such a ghostly place.
All this is just to wait for an opportunity like this tonight to tell me everything she knows!
Continue to move forward, Pu Zixuan has arrived at the place where Jenny fell, stretched her head out of the cliff, and could feel the whirring cold wind blowing from below rubbing her face like a blade, like hell roaring, but it was pitch black and nothing could be seen.
Further down, the last trace of temperature on the robotic arm also faded, becoming a completely lifeless thing.
Pu Zixuan turned over, leaned forward to the sky, his face as if dead ashes, hugged his cold mechanical arm tightly, allowing tears to flow freely.
My heart was as painful as thousands of arrows piercing my heart, and as lonely as abandoned by the universe. Pu Zixuan never needed people's company as he is now, and suddenly the world was searching for evil spirits crazily.
"Xiaojiu, Xiaojiu, where are you?"
Since the purifying power was awakened again, this was the first time he had sensed Chen Shuqing's place. At this time, on Zhupao Mountain in the southern part of Poyang Lake, Chen Shuqing and Sun Xiaoshu had returned to their respective houses to rest. The two sides were far apart. Chen Shuqing's demonic aura was not covered by Xiaoye Hongdou, and Pu Zixuan soon discovered it.
However, after passing through the infinite scale armor, Chen Shuqing became a "quasi-cross tribe member". For a long time, his demonic aura also contained a strong cross aura. Although Pu Zixuan found it, he skipped it because he was not familiar with it.
Just as Pu Zixuan's purification power changed under the interference of Liuyun's armor, but he himself was unaware of it.
He just accurately searched for the fox demon aura that he was too familiar with. Although the presentation of the breath has nothing to do with his facial features, in Pu Zixuan's mind, Chen Shuqing's breath is fragrant, sweet, and the most "correct" demon aura in the world.
In the end, Pu Zixuan was unable to sense Chen Shuqing's place, which made him even more desperate. Over the past few days, he could numb himself from the loss of purifying power and imagine how fate of Chen Shuqing was, and now...
He could only hope that because Sun Xiaoshu and Chen Shuqing were together, he covered up the latter's aura. If it was daytime, Pu Zixuan could rest assured, but it was too late at this time, and the two of them would definitely not be inseparable... He could not imagine that if his beloved Xiaojiu also passed away, he would face a cold and frosty world.
His face was ashamed and his heart was ashamed. Pu Zixuan stared blankly at the stars in the sky, his mind seemed full of thoughts, but it seemed empty.
He was tired of crying and thinking about it, so he fell asleep so deeply.
...
The next day, everything woke up and Pu Zixuan recovered completely. Only then did he see where he was lying, it turned out to be a deep abyss under him, and Jenny's body was completely unseen.
How great would it be if everything was just a dream!
However, everything that happened last night was like a nightmare that could not be escaped, and quickly returned to his mind. Pu Zixuan's face was roughened by the cold wind and dried by the tears. He knew that he could only accept the reality that Jenny was no longer in the world. Then, he searched for Chen Shuqing's demonic aura again, and was flew away for a while. After being stunned by the cliff for a while, he silently took the mechanical arm left by Jenny and summoned the Dragon King of the Galaxy and flew away in the direction he was traveling.
On the shore of Poyang Lake, Zhu Yuanliang was bent over and carefully searching for food in the weeds at the foot of the mountain. His eyes were like torches, and he did not miss a slightest slightest thing that could be eaten.
Shaoqing, Zhu Yuanliang picked a small string of purple-red black rice from the grass, held it high, weighed it in his hand, took it to the lake water to clean it like a treasure, and then sent it to his mouth.
It was almost early winter and wild fruits were hard to find. Even the common black rice rice in the wild seemed to have small skin. However, for a very hungry person, it was undoubtedly the delicacies of the mountains and seas on weekdays.
Zhu Yuanliang quickly finished eating a bunch of black rice, and then squatted in place in a cute manner, looking around vigilantly, as if the enemy would invade at any time. He first looked to the left, but did not see any abnormalities, and then turned around and looked to the right.
This time, I happened to see Pu Zixuan standing upright, with his hands behind his back, and smiling bitterly at him.
In fact, Pu Zixuan had been hiding in the dark and observing Zhu Yuanliang for a while. He rarely saw the pitiful appearance of this childhood friend. He was as innocent as when he was a child. He couldn't help but take a look at him twice before he appeared.
"Pangdun, what should I eat alone? I won't share it with my brother." Pu Zixuan asked with a smile, as if he was a daily routine.
"Hey, you bitch, you agreed to go up the mountain to play wild game, why don't you go back?" Zhu Yuanliang looked at Pu Zixuan and was immediately angry. He stood up and asked with his eyebrows, "Do you know how worried I am?"
Pu Zixuan smiled and said, "Are you worried about your belly or your brother's safety?"
Zhu Yuanliang hummed and said, "You have both, but it's mainly my belly! What kind of wild game did you play?" After saying that, he wanted to see Pu Zixuan's hand hiding behind him.
Pu Zixuan dodged for a while, preventing Zhu Yuanliang from seeing what was behind him, and sighed and said, "It's hard to say anything. Since you have no food, why don't you go back to the Laoye Temple to find Zhu Yeba?"
"Why? Why do you say? Of course, I'm afraid that the bastard Jenny will come to trouble us again! With our skills, can we deal with that female devil? So, I'll sleep on the lake all night until you come back. We are so righteous, even if we suffer some losses, we can't implicate others!" After saying that, Zhu Yuanliang's curiosity reached its peak, and he wanted to stretch his head to see Pu Zixuan's hand.
Pu Zixuan curled his smile and stopped dodging. He took out Jenny's mechanical arm from behind, and his sad eyes fell on it: "You don't have to worry anymore. Jenny is no longer alive."
Zhu Yuanliang looked at the mechanical arm smaller than his Vajra Demon-Subduing Wrist and wondered: "Why, you met that female devil in Lushan last night and even killed her?"
"Jenny's affairs are hard to describe." After saying that, Pu Zixuan patted Zhu Yuanliang on the shoulder and signaled him to sit by the lake. After the two of them sat down, he told him everything that Jenny had encountered.
"So, Red Yasha and the Black Mountain Old Demon are both ulterior motives. In order to save us one enemy, Jenny chose to break himself..." After hearing this, Zhu Yuanliang was indeed like Pu Zixuan, sad, shocked, angry... and all kinds of feelings surged into his heart.
"That's it. This is the relic she left behind. Your arms are too thick and you can't use them. I think, take it down with you and let you take a look, and then bury it properly together."
"Agree, one hundred likes!"
The two found a flat piece of land nearby, dug out a small "grave" two feet square, put the robotic arm into it, and backfilled the rammed earth.
Then, the two stood solemnly, observing a while of silence, allowing the lake wind to blow gently.
Zhu Yuanliang asked again: "Where is Chen Shuqing? Have you found her?"
Pu Zixuan shook his head gently: "No."
"What does 'no' mean? Is it because I don't have her evil spirit, or is it because I haven't gone to look for it?"
Pu Zixuan didn't answer. After a while, he suddenly smiled and asked Zhu Yuanliang, "Do you still remember that one summer, you threw me into the rice field and made me cry anxiously?"
What Pu Zixuan said was that one day, shortly after his father Pu Weihai disappeared, six private school friends played hide-and-seek in a village near Lijiang. Once, it was Pu Zixuan's turn to play the role of "cat". After the voices of his friends disappeared, Pu Zixuan set out to search, but he didn't know that his friends were playing pranks with him, threw him in the rice fields, and went home.
That day, Pu Zixuan, who was less than thirteen years old, was in a daze looking for the "prey" that would never appear in the afterglow of the sunset. He was anxious and even cried.
Zhu Yuanliang smiled and said, "Of course I remember. Why did you suddenly mention this?"
