The bewitching power from the Yellow Springs was released once again. The surroundings seemed to be shrouded in layers of fog, making it hard for people to see clearly.
This time, Su Bai discovered that although Ji Xiang's body began to tremble again, it was obviously restraining itself. At least, it was not as extreme as the last time when it struggled desperately and even broke its tail.
Su Bai's gaze began to wander. In fact, he knew in his heart that since Lychee was unwilling to come out, it did not matter whether he found the tombstone or not.
It was like borrowing money from a friend on WeChat when you were short of money. If the other party did not reply after a long time, then there was no need to continue calling or sending a video call to remind them.
Because sometimes, silence was a reflection of one's attitude.
However, for Su Bai, it was indeed a great pity that Ji Xiang's soul could not be restored this time. The person in the coffin had pointed out a way for him, but now there were twists and turns on this road. No one could blame this, not even Lychee. In fact, there was nothing to blame.
In the next moment, Su Bai decided to leave the Yellow Springs first. He was worried that Ji Xiang would not be able to hold on for long even if it forced itself to. Immediately, Su Bai began to move towards the shore.
When Su Bai came out, the faceless lantern-bearers on both sides of the shore had already disappeared, as if they had never existed. There were too many secrets in this Land of Proving the Way. For the current Su Bai, unless the person in the coffin was willing to tell him something, with his current strength, he would not be able to see through the dark veil that shrouded the Land of Proving the Way.
After returning to the shore, Su Bai sat down, while Ji Xiang shook the water droplets on its fur beside Su Bai. Ruyi was still lying on the altar, quietly looking down.
It was not very excited when it saw its companion return, and it was not very excited when its companion regretted that it could not recover. These two cats were really like the most familiar strangers.
However, according to Ji Xiang's character, even if the two black cats had always lived in this Land of Proving the Way, they probably would not have developed into a relationship where one licked its fur and the other scratched its lice tomorrow.
Suddenly, he felt a little dispirited and a little disappointed.
Su Bai looked at Ji Xiang and reached out to touch its head. Ji Xiang still subconsciously rolled its eyes to express its disgust, but it did not resist.
One of the main reasons why Lychee did not come out was that she did not want to have anything to do with the man and the woman. Perhaps due to the difference in height, she saw things from a different perspective. Moreover, Su Bai knew one thing in his heart, and that was why Ji Xiang had come back like this, but the little fellow had disappeared.
Everything.
Perhaps it was so that he could bring Ji Xiang back to the Land of Dao Proving.
Lychee's height was very high, but before Chen Sheng's rebellion, he was just a farmer who loved to brag. Similarly, no matter how high Lychee's height was, she was just like him in the past, a chess piece played by the man and the woman in the palm of their hands.
Everyone was just a pot calling the kettle black. To be honest, Lychee did not save him this time, which made Su Bai quite disappointed. Maybe she had a lot of concerns, or maybe her plans were even bigger. However, even the blood corpse could be so carefree, but Lychee suddenly went into hiding, which made Su Bai feel very uncomfortable.
This was not because Su Bai deliberately felt that others owed him or Ji Xiang, but because if their positions were switched, Su Bai was sure that he would not hesitate to help Ji Xiang recover.
Vaguely, when Su Bai had just become a listener, the battle between Lychee and the man and woman had already begun. On his side, it was only a small part of the battle, or perhaps it could only be called a part of it. However, some things, some thoughts, some things, if one thought too much, it would be too complicated, and it would be meaningless.
Now, in Su Bai's eyes, Lychee might have already become the second man and woman. From the things she had asked Gongzi Hai to do, she could clearly see her plans and attempts.
If you hate someone, you will gradually become the person you hate.
This kind of life, this kind of life, what meaning was there in it?
Ruyi walked to Ji Xiang's side and looked at her up close.
Looking at this pair of black cats, Su Bai seemed to see himself and Lychee. Two cats, one was willing to stay in the darkness of the Land of Proving Dao, while Ji Xiang wanted to go out and see the colorful world outside. These two attitudes corresponded to the difference between himself and Lychee.
He casually picked up a stone beside him and threw it into the Yellow Springs. Su Bai sighed, turned around, and walked back to the altar. He then walked down from the altar and walked towards the coffin.
Ji Xiang was not healed yet, and Su Bai had no intention of going out. Of course, when Su Bai carried Ji Xiang and jumped into the black whirlpool without hesitation, he really did not think too much about whether he could go out or not.
Old Fang had spent a lot of energy to build a Peach Blossom Land for himself, but for Su Bai, a place where he could avoid the gaze and influence of the man and woman was his own Peach Blossom Land.
This kind of thinking was a little disappointing, and also a little discouraging. It could even be said to be a little useless, but Su Bai did not want to drink the chicken soup of facing difficulties. No one could understand his feelings. On one hand, he had to face the pressure of the broadcast, and on the other hand, he had to face the increasingly frequent and obvious targeting of the man and woman as his strength increased.
Tiring, that was for sure.
Leaning against the coffin, Su Bai sat down. Ji Xiang and Ruyi also walked over, but the two black cats did not come close. They tacitly sat on the steps below, one on the left and one on the right.
If the lighting technician turned on the lights, adjusted the angle, and took a picture, then this picture would definitely become a decadent, non-mainstream picture.
A purple-haired youth leaned against the coffin, resting with his hands on his knees. Beside the steps under his feet, the two black cats lay there motionlessly.
The scene was really beautiful.
They sat there for a few hours. During this time, the coffin was very quiet, Su Bai was also very quiet, and the two black cats were also very quiet.
Until suddenly, a wisp of black gas filled the coffin. This was corpse gas, extremely pure corpse gas.
Su Bai smiled. He remembered that when he was trapped here more than half a year ago, the person in the coffin also released this wisp of corpse gas for him to absorb every day. The amount was not large, but it was enough for him to not "starve to death" due to the exhaustion of his strength.
Now, Su Bai was already a high-level listener. He would not starve to death, but Su Bai still took the initiative to absorb this wisp of corpse gas.
He reached out and patted the coffin lightly. Su Bai said, "Why does this feel like a senior giving candy to a junior?"
"You are indeed my junior, no matter what the relationship between me and Su Yuhang is," the person in the coffin said.
"Us two losers are really hugging each other for warmth here." Su Bai sighed.
"I'm a loser, you're not." The person in the coffin said. His tone was not obvious, and his tone was very flat. Therefore, it was difficult to tell if he was trying to comfort you or mock you. "You haven't reached the point where you can choose for yourself yet," the person in the coffin said.
"I can choose to commit suicide." Su Bai reached out and knocked on his head. "I feel that if I commit suicide, their plan will fail, right?"
"The broadcast will not select people who do not want to live." The coffin was silent for a while before it continued, "Moreover, you already have a child."
Inadvertently, the person in the coffin revealed the tip of the iceberg of the man and woman's secret, but it was enough to make Su Bai's heart tremble.
I have a child?
This sentence directly provoked Su Bai. Could it be that his cheap parents took away the little fellow so that the little fellow would repeat his own path?
At the thought of the little fellow floating in the ice-cold glass petri dish, and the ignorant little fellow looking at the painting and having his memories filled up, the veins on Su Bai's arms subconsciously bulged.
"But my son is not my biological son." Su Bai did not want to believe it was true.
"Whether you are biological or not is just a difference in DNA sequence. You have the blood of Su Yuhang and the others in your body, but did your mother really carry you for a day?" The person in the coffin seemed to be very straightforward. "So, no matter what, don't be dispirited, especially before you kill the person you want to kill. Don't be dispirited."
Su Bai took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. Then, he said, "Thank you. Your chicken soup is really generous."
"I'm just standing on the side of a loser. I just hope that you can succeed. Besides, if I can see my son, whom I've always treated as a test subject and a vessel, take his own life in the future, I'd like the ending of this story," the person in the coffin said with a smile.
His fingertips lightly tapped on the coffin. Su Bai suddenly said, "Then, does this also match … match the story that broadcasting pursues?"
"Then, is this also in line with … in line with the storytelling pursued by broadcasting?"
"You'll know when the time comes." The person in the coffin changed the topic. "That girl hasn't come out yet, has she?"
"Don't blame her. Everyone makes different choices, so the decisions they make are naturally different. After all, not everyone is like you. No matter how much suffering you have to endure, you still live such a pure life."
"Don't blame her. Everyone makes different choices, so the decisions they make are naturally different. After all, not everyone is like you, living so purely no matter how much suffering they have to endure."
"What's next?" he asked.
"Just a normal rhythm. After giving me chicken soup and a shot of chicken blood, shouldn't you give me some practical benefits next?
"That's normal. You've fed me chicken soup and injected me with chicken blood. Shouldn't you give me some practical benefits next? You know that Lychee won't save Lucky, right?
After going around in a big circle, there were only two possibilities. One was to let the Blood Corpse help you finish half of it, saving you some energy, and the other was to help you after Lychee didn't help.
Ji Xiang and Ruyi, who were lying at the bottom of the stairs, looked at the coffin and Su Bai together.
Ji Xiang and Ruyi, who were crawling under the steps, glanced at each other and then at the coffin and Su Bai together.
