Rustle — —
It was the sound of snow being swept.
It was also the sound of blood being swept.
Such a sound rang in the ears of the people of Wind City all night, until dawn, when the rustling sound still did not stop.
It was probably an extremely difficult task to clean up the deep snow that covered the city, right?
To clean up the blood that seemed to overflow from the cracks of every slate in the city was most likely hundreds or thousands of times more difficult than sweeping the snow, right?
The ambush failed, the war stopped.
Lu Wuyong surrendered, Wind City changed hands.
However, in the middle of these two simple lines of words, there were piles of blood and corpses of countless innocent soldiers.
When a general succeeds, tens of thousands of people will wither. The ones who are the easiest to wither are always the nobodies with no background.
Li Muyang had long woken up, quietly listening to the rustling sound outside the window.
He liked this feeling, because it reminded him of the life in the small town of Jiangnan.
At that time, it was also the same scene. In the cold winter, he was lying in his warm little nest, listening to the sound of his mother Luo Chi sweeping the snow in the yard with a broom outside the window, and the smell of freshly cooked porridge coming from downstairs. His father Li Yan was in the yard honing his arm strength, while Li Shinian was singing a tuneless song in the room next door, giving people a feeling of peace and happiness.
Li Muyang missed Jiangnan, missed the life in Jiangnan.
If possible, he very much wanted to return to the state of life at that time.
Unfortunately, things could not start over again.
Clang — —
The door was pushed open from the outside, and a gust of cold wind swept in.
Clang — —
The door of the room was closed, and the cold wind was cut in two.
Spiritual Master Zi Yang walked into the inner room, stood at the head of the bed and looked at Li Muyang, whose eyes were closed, and said aloud, "Everything has a cause and effect, a thought is born and a thought is extinguished. Life is like this, you can't force it. I know you miss Jiangnan, miss the life in the small town of Jiangnan. But, like the stars last night, the withered yellow flowers, once gone, they will never come back. "
Li Muyang opened his eyes, calmly looking at Spiritual Master Zi Yang, asking aloud, "How do you know I miss Jiangnan?"
"Because there's something ambiguous on your face," Spiritual Master Zi Yang said. "Only those who are truly happy will have such an expression on their faces. Based on my understanding of your temperament, living in a small town in Jiangnan is the truly happy life, right? "
"Yes," Li Muyang said softly. "I miss life in Jiangnan, but I can't go back anymore."
"At that time, you were looked down upon, bullied, and your life was in danger. A high fever could take your life at any time. However, most of the time, his life could be said to be peaceful and joyful. Later on, your name shook the world. The more famous you became, the more troubles you had. The omnipresent love and hatred in the world became more and more entangled with you. You felt more and more tired, more and more miserable. In the end, your identity as a dragon was exposed. You realized that the whole world was your enemy, and you didn't know where to go in the future … "
Li Muyang got up from the bed and looked at Master Zi Yang with a sincere expression. He asked urgently, "Grandpa, can you save me?"
"I can't save you, the only one who can save you is yourself." Spiritual Master Zi Yang said aloud.
The hopeful expression on Li Muyang's face disappeared, and then turned into a deep disappointment. "Yes, the whole world is my enemy, who can save me?"
"Muyang, don't give up. There is still a way to solve it. Since there is a cause, the heavens will certainly give you an effect. "
"It's just that the effect is that I will be slaughtered by the world. Just like tens of thousands of years ago, isn't this the fate of the dragon clan? "
Spiritual Master Zi Yang gently shook his head. "When I first saw you, I tried to calculate your fate. But I found that your fate is very strange. Every time I calculate, I can only see smoke and clouds. The smoke and clouds are not empty, not chaotic and without order, but the beginning, it is infinite. It is the chaos before the heaven and earth were split apart. Although I can't calculate your fate, but I know that you are not a person who will die young. As long as you are alive, what hurdle can't you overcome? "
"No relatives and no friends, being chased and plotted against all day long, living on the road of escape, even if your life is long, what is the meaning of life?"
"Muyang, this is your fate. What the heavens give you, you have to gladly accept. What the heavens want to take away, you can't force it. Follow the will of the heavens, and follow your heart. If your heart is satisfied, you will live a relaxed and happy life. "
Li Muyang smiled wryly. "The heavens gave me a serious illness, and I gladly accepted it. But what I didn't expect was that he gave me another identity — — an identity that I can't accept. "
"Do you know how many people are eager to get your identity?" Spiritual Master Zi Yang said with a serious face. "Those people who set up an ambush in Wind City to kill you, those people who followed you, the Earth Immortal Gong Zhouyi, the Ghost King of the Ghost domain Li Lanjiang, the Lord of Wind City Lu Wuyong, the Lord of Jiangnan City Yan Bolai, and even the Eye of the Starry Sky Song Gudu in Tiandu, which one of them does not want to have your ability? Which one of them does not want to be immortal like you? "
"They just want my ability, and have never thought about my identity." Li Muyang said aloud.
A mocking smile surfaced on Spiritual Master Zi Yang's face. "How do you know they don't want your identity?"
"— —" Li Muyang looked at Spiritual Master Zi Yang in astonishment. He didn't expect him to say such words in front of him.
Could it be that those people also want to be like him — — to become a dragon? An evil dragon that everyone wants to slay?
Spiritual Master Zi Yang gently sighed. "You should already understand that in the dragon slaying war ten thousand years ago, the human race was the one who owed the dragon race. Why did the human race slay the dragon? It was because the dragon race was too powerful that the human race felt that their lives were threatened. When the dragon race was high and mighty looking down on all living beings, the powerful human race felt that they were in a bad mood and could not eat or sleep in peace — — So, the nine countries united, and that was the reason for the dragon slaying war. "
"The reason why people slay the dragon race is because the human race is not as strong as the dragon race, the human race's body is not as strong as the dragon race, and the human race's talent is not as outstanding as the dragon race. If the human race could possess the abilities of the dragon race, perhaps many people would be tempted … Even now, it was still the case. They wanted to kill you, not because you were an evil dragon, not because you might slaughter humans and cause suffering, but because you were a threat to their position as rulers. Muyang, you should have seen all this clearly, shouldn't you? "
Li Muyang remained silent.
How could he not understand this truth?
Tens of thousands of years ago, 'he' understood this truth.
At that time, when did the dragon race ever do evil things?
At that time, when did the dragon race ever slaughter the human race and eat their hearts and livers?
On the contrary, not only did the dragon race not harm the human race, but they also shouldered the heavy responsibility of resisting the Abyss Demons — — But what was the fate of the dragon race in the end?
When the dragon race was exhausted, the strong cultivators of the human race rose up and attacked, raising the butcher's knife against the race that should have been their comrades.
In that battle, the Dragon Clan was almost completely wiped out and suffered extermination.
He understood this truth, and so did the strong cultivators and rulers of the human race who raised the butcher's knife.
However, there were millions of people in the human race, everyone said that you are an evil dragon, everyone said that you like to eat people's hearts — —
At that time, you couldn't explain yourself, not to mention that you didn't have a hundred mouths, you could only defend yourself with your mouth.
Besides, no matter what you say, those brainwashed human beings won't believe you. They would only believe the high and mighty emperors, generals, and cultivation masters. How would they listen carefully to what a dragon was saying?
"I understand, so what?" Li Muyang asked in response.
"If you understand, then you should know that you have not done anything wrong, and you don't have to feel guilty. On the contrary, it is they who have done wrong, and they should repent to you. So, you have to live well, live better than anyone else — — "
"Under the starry sky, everyone knows that I am a dragon. In the divine continent, every cultivator wants to kill me. How can I live well? "
"If you can't be a human, then be a good dragon." Spiritual Master Zi Yang looked at the haze between Li Muyang's brows and said.
"Be a good dragon?"
"Yes. Be a good dragon. "Spiritual Master Zi Yang said. "You should do what a true dragon should do. Use your own actions to tell the world that the dragon race is not as bad as they say — — "
A mocking smile appeared on Li Muyang's lips. "Is this useful?"
"As long as you persevere, it will definitely be useful." Spiritual Master Zi Yang said with incomparable determination. "Moreover, not everyone thinks that you are an evil dragon, at least you have a group of very good friends around you. They know your identity, but they still stand with you without hesitation — — I believe that the fog will disperse and the truth will be revealed. "
Li Muyang was silent.
Spiritual Master Zi Yang looked at Li Muyang and asked aloud, "Last night when I came to treat your sword wound, I saw you rolling on the ground and howling in pain for half the night. I tried everything I could but couldn't stop it — — what did they do to you?"
"There are eight Dragon nails in my body." Li Muyang explained. "Song Gudu inserted eight netherworld nails into my body."
"Immeasurable Lord." Spiritual Master Zi Yang's face was extremely ugly. "Song Gudu has gone too far."
"In his eyes, how can I be considered a person?"
Spiritual Master Zi Yang pondered for a long while, before he said aloud, "These netherworld nails are made by extracting the netherworld qi under the underworld and using a secret technique to form nails that are inserted into the body. Even the tyrannical body of the dragon race would find it difficult to contend against it. Those who do not know this simply cannot take it out — — However, I do know a secret recipe. It is said that there is a divine palace in the Kunlun Mountains, and in the palace there is an enlightened beast. Take out the beast's gall and eat it, it can resolve the netherworld qi. "
