In the boundless darkness.
Since the last time he suddenly woke up and saw the orange-haired girl,
He once again fell into a deep slumber, and even after a long period of time, he did not hear the call of that young girl again.
But..,
It was precisely because he had indeed woken up..,
After he returned to this despairing darkness, he had a glimmer of hope of waking up again. Having hope in his heart was, after all, a good thing.
During this period of time..,
He thought about the girl almost every day, hoping that the girl would wake him up from the darkness again so that he could truly escape from this darkness.
Moreover..,
No matter how small the probability of this happening was, he had always believed in this matter. After all, in this despairing place, other than believing in this, he had no other way.
However..,
The power of time was enough to obliterate any hope,
He waited for the girl's call year after year, but it was still disappointment and despair year after year. Just like that, time continued to destroy his hope, and his consciousness became weaker and weaker.
He did not know how much time had passed,
His consciousness gradually weakened to the point where he could not measure the short period of time,
He finally fell into despair, and his consciousness also entered the state of being left behind. He believed that it would not be long before..
Then, he would completely lose this last bit of proof that he was still alive.
..
At the same time..,
In the forest of a village cemetery..,
A mysterious man in a black cloak appeared stealthily and carefully observed the surroundings of the graveyard.
After confirming that there was no one around,
The mysterious man took advantage of the night to enter the cemetery. He was still holding a shovel and a few talismans in his hand. He looked back with every step he took, and at this moment, he seemed extremely guilty.
Not long after..,
The sound of a shovel digging came from the cemetery,
"Lu Liang, this bastard, is simply deliberately making things difficult for me. Hmph, but he also underestimated my determination. Isn't it just Zhang Xilin's remains? In the future, I want to see what reason he can find to refuse me joining the all-inclusive."
Soon..,
The mysterious man controlled a corpse and skillfully dug open the grave. He quickly opened the coffin and looked at the corpse in the coffin. He immediately clamped the talisman between his fingers and muttered a few words in a low voice. The talisman strangely spontaneously combusted.
The next moment..,
A few corpses crawled out of the ground one after another and came to the mysterious man with dull expressions.
"Take the corpses and wait for me on the side."
The mysterious man ordered several corpses to carry the remains in the coffin and walked to the other graves in the graveyard alone. Once again, he took out several talisman papers and threw them into almost all the graves one by one.
"Hmph, it's rare for me to come here, so I'll make a few more corpses while I'm at it. If that bastard Lu Liang dares to burn the bridge after crossing the river, I'll definitely teach him a lesson."
Do all this well.
There was only one piece of talisman paper left in the mysterious man's hand. The talisman paper was marked with cinnabar, revealing its age. It looked very different from the other talisman papers.
"This …"
When the mysterious man noticed the talisman, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. A trace of nostalgia and unwillingness gradually appeared in his eyes.
"How many years has it been? The Gu worms and talismans have clearly entered your body long ago, but every time I call for you, you don't appear. Back then, you even said that you wanted to be friends with me.
I really don't believe you. "
Perhaps he was a little agitated.
The black robe covering the mysterious man's head slipped down, revealing his orange-red hair under the moonlight. Perhaps because a long time had passed, the short orange-red hair had also turned into long orange-red hair, casually tied into two ponytails behind his head.
"Forget it, forget it …"
"No matter what, you can be considered my first friend. Although we only met for a short period of time and didn't have much communication, seeing that you're willing to be friends with me …"
"I'll try one last time."
After saying that …
A trace of hope flashed in the girl's eyes. She nervously clamped the talisman paper between her fingers. While she was chanting an incantation, the talisman paper still didn't start to burn.
Noticing this situation …
The girl bit her lower lip unwillingly and chanted an incantation again and again, trying to make the talisman paper work. However, after trying more than ten times in a row, she still didn't get any response.
Finally …
The girl gave up. She stood there in silence for a long time. In the end, she shook her head and sighed as she threw away the talisman paper. "Liu Yanyan, Liu Yanyan, what are you doing? Didn't you give up hope a long time ago?
That guy might really just be an accident. "
In her disappointment …
Liu Yanyan turned around and walked towards the few corpses that were waiting for her. Without hesitation, she ordered them to bring the remains and walk with her to the forest outside the cemetery.
At this moment …
A drunkard happened to pass by for some reason and walked into the cemetery drunk. When he didn't find Liu Yanyan and the few corpses, he muttered to himself and sat in front of a tombstone.
A few minutes later …
"Ghost!!!!!"
A scream that could be said to be at the limit of the human body instantly resounded throughout the entire forest …
Little did they know that …
Just after this farce ended with the drunkard fainting …
The talisman paper that Liu Yanyan had thrown down before she left suddenly began to burn without any warning. The complicated mark that was imprinted with cinnabar on top also emitted a faint light as it burned.
…
"Hey! Liu Xiaojiang! Back then, I even gave you a name. If you still don't want to respond to me, I'll really be angry. This time …
I'm really, really angry! "
While his consciousness was still lingering …
He finally heard the call that he had been thinking about for a long time. That nostalgic power also appeared again. He, who was already prepared for this, almost immediately seized this opportunity and opened his incomparably heavy eyes with all his might.
After struggling for an unknown period of time …
He finally opened his eyes. Although it was still pitch-black in front of him, he, who was familiar with the previous darkness, naturally understood that the darkness in front of him was not the kind of darkness that had always been there. A subtle sensation gradually came from his body …
He was completely certain that he had already escaped from that darkness!
Thus …
When his body had some strength, he immediately waved his hands and feet stiffly, trying his best to disperse the darkness around him. He instinctively continued to 'swim' upwards. Finally, after a 'plop' sound …
He had truly returned to a world that allowed him to be free.
In the forest …
"Cough cough cough …"
He subconsciously coughed out the soil in his chest and slightly adapted to his stiff body. Although he still did not understand what was going on with him, he gradually regained control of his body.
"Liu … Xiao Jiang …? This name … seems … not bad. "
