Changsheng sat cross-legged in front of the field that was filled with bones. The machete in front of him was stabbed into the ground. The Demon King even noticed that he secretly took out a handful of flaxen hair and placed it on the ground.
"I'm sorry that I can't save you, and I can't let you rest in peace. I hope that you will be worry-free in your next life and not suffer the pain of the mortal world."
He lowered his head. After a few seconds of silence, he slowly stood up.
At this moment, there were two people standing behind him. The Demon King and Reina.
"Let's go. We can't stay here for long."
Reina frowned slightly. Half of her body was hidden behind her master's back. She poked her head out and looked at Changsheng's face weakly. She saw two faint lines of tears.
Changsheng also noticed Reina's gaze. He smiled at her and patted her head.
The Demon King also turned and left. Before Reina left, she turned back to look. A hollow bone was facing her. She was so scared that her hair stood on end. She quickened her pace and caught up with the two of them.
Not long after the two of them left, in a pile of rocks, a monster covered in blood moved. Wu Gan was not dead yet. It opened its eyes and gritted its teeth.
It saw its broken staff and broken body. Black blood flowed all over the ground. It was not dead yet, but it was going to die soon.
At this moment, a yellow cat appeared in front of it.
"You're going to die soon."
This cat actually opened its mouth to speak human language, which was really creepy.
"Get lost."
Wu Gan made a low sound from its throat.
"My master thinks that you're quite useful. That's why he spared your life."
The cat continued to speak.
Master?
Wu Gan had doubts in its heart. But soon, it thought of the terrifying human who wore black clothes and emitted the aura of the Grim Reaper.
"He's not human?"
"That's right. Master is the greatest existence. If you're willing to submit to him, he can heal your wounds and give you great power. Do you desire power?"
A cold light suddenly flashed in the cat's eyes.
Wu Gan did not speak. It just looked at the cat quietly, but its vision was getting darker.
"You don't have much time."
It blinked its eyes. Its consciousness was almost taken away. It knew what it would mean if it lost consciousness at this moment.
Wu Gan opened its mouth.
"I'm willing to follow the strong."
When the cat heard that, it revealed a strange smile.
"Drink it. Then you'll be the servant of your master forever. You can't resist his orders."
The kitten suddenly spat out a black bottle. There were some impurities floating in the black liquid that made people feel very uneasy.
Wu Gan used his last bit of strength and bit the bottle with his mouth. He directly bit the glass into pieces and swallowed the black liquid along with the broken glass.
Suddenly, red stripes appeared on its neck, like a piece of red-hot iron.
"Ah! Ah! "
It struggled to get up, black smoke rising from the wounds all over its body.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, with an unknown source of strength, Wu Gan stood up directly. His withered body suddenly swelled up, and his gray face immediately regained its color. After the intense pain, it was as if the sky had cleared up after the rain. He felt extremely good, as if his body had an endless amount of strength, as if he was dozens of years younger.
Wu Gan took a deep breath and looked at his body in disbelief. The red marks covered his body. Some unknown substances gathered on his stomach, emitting bursts of red light.
"Master left you a mission."
The cat suddenly said.
I, Wu Gan, will complete it.
Wu Gan immediately knelt down on one knee. Excitement appeared on his face.
…
"I stayed in that village for a while when I was young."
Chang Sheng said as he walked with a long blade of grass in his mouth.
"That's your hometown?"
Reina asked.
"No, I don't have a hometown or relatives. I'm a baby who was abandoned by travelers. I was raised by a wandering artist. I wandered in that village for a while. "
As he spoke, Chang Sheng blew. The blade of grass in his mouth flew out and suddenly froze in the air.
"I can also guess why they abandoned me. My ability is a nightmare for people who drive carriages."
Demon King nodded. He imagined a moving carriage. The thing on it suddenly froze in place, but the carriage continued to move.
"What's a wandering artist? Is it the kind that lies on the ground? "
Reina suddenly asked curiously.
"No, it's different from yours."
Demon King knocked her head gently.
Changsheng faintly smiled. He took out a flute from his pocket and gently placed it by his mouth. Immediately, the music that Linnai heard before rang out once again.
"That's right! This is it! Master! That's what I want to say. "
Reina said excitedly. Demon King listened indifferently. The beautiful flute music carried a faint sadness. It was as if a white-clothed girl was standing on a mountain full of flowers and saying goodbye to him. Even the idiot Reina couldn't help but shut her noisy mouth and listen carefully.
"It's so nice."
After the flute music stopped, Reina clapped her hands and said.
"Why does this bamboo sound?"
Reina asked curiously.
"This is a musical instrument. I relied on this for a living when I was young."
"Eh?! Can you let me play with it? "
Chang Sheng smiled and said, "Of course."
He wiped the flute and handed it to Reina. Reina played with it curiously and found that there were many small holes on it.
"Just blow this hole, right?"
She asked.
"Yes, but there are some tricks inside …"
Before Chang Sheng finished speaking, Reina took a deep breath, as if she was about to hold her breath while diving. Suddenly, she blew hard. Immediately, the flute made a sorrowful sound.
Smack!
Demon King's iron fist smashed onto Reina's head.
"Don't mess around."
Reina showed an aggrieved expression. The flute in her hand was full of saliva.
"Quickly wash it clean and return it. Remember to apologize."
"Yes … I'm sorry."
Lena said, feeling wronged.
Chang Sheng laughed and said, "No need. I'll give this flute to you. It's very old anyway."
"Hey! Master, look, Brother Chang Sheng is so nice. "
"Then you have to wash it clean."
"Ah!"
Chang Sheng smiled and looked at the master and disciple. Suddenly, he remembered what happened when he was young.
The long and stiff sound of the flute came from the village, mixed with the sound of chickens, ducks, and geese in the village.
There was nothing to be gained today.
Chang Sheng sat at the entrance of the village. He was wearing clothes full of holes, like a beggar. The children passing by either laughed at him or threw stones at him.
At this moment, a white steamed bun appeared in front of him.
"You must be hungry. Eat it."
A young girl about his age appeared in front of him. She was holding a bowl with a white steamed bun on top of it.
Her name was Hong Yan. Her mother was a tailor and her father was a farmer.
"Hey, how do I blow this thing? Can you teach me?"
Hong Yan played with Chang Sheng's flute. Chang Sheng chewed on the dry steamed bun. Just as he was about to say something, the other party exaggeratedly took a breath and blew on the flute. Suddenly, there was an ear-piercing noise.
That was the first time they met. The people in the village were very good. Chang Sheng helped them herd the cows and goats in exchange for steamed buns. At night, he slept in the cowshed for a long time.
Until a martial artist came to the village. He wore a long gown and carried a cold sword. At first glance, he took a fancy to Chang Sheng and brought him to the Extreme Martial Sect to cultivate.
"After you finish your cultivation, come back and marry me, okay?"
Hong Yan cried very hard. Her nose and eyes were red. She took a pair of scissors and cut a section of her hair. Then, she stuffed it in Chang Sheng's hand.
That was the first time he saw Hong Yan cry. It was also the last time.
Chang Sheng sighed and looked up at the sky.
Today, he was twenty and she was eighteen. Chang Sheng would never be able to see her again.
"Brother Chang Sheng! If you don't leave now, I will leave you behind. "
Reina's voice came from afar. Chang Sheng came back to his senses and smiled.
"Wait for me."
He quickly walked towards the two of them. A drop of tear fell on the ground.
