twin moon

When Qi Ziyin arrived, the red-haired girl had already stood up with her own strength.Although her clothes were disheveled and her hair was disheveled, there were no obvious wounds on her face or body.

The young man in white only felt his nose sore, and his heart, which was about to stop beating, finally started beating again.He rushed forward and hugged the girl tightly in his arms, but his hands were trembling unceasingly, holding her face and looking at it again and again:
"Are you okay? It's fine, it's fine!"

But just over ten steps away from the two of them, Luqiu Borong was buried by several collapsed boulders and black ice.The rushing soldiers gradually surrounded the empress, shouting some unintelligible words one after another, but for a moment they dared not move easily, moving away the rocks and crushed ice that were pressing on her.

Qi Ziyin also took Ning Yue's hand and walked towards him, and from a distance he saw Luqiu Borong whose body was tightly suppressed.Although the thin scale armor can resist swords and soldiers, it is difficult to block the hard rocks all over the mountains.Now the whole body of the empress has been deformed, her left leg is completely broken, and she folded out from under the pile of ice rocks at a strange angle.The face and hands that were still exposed were covered with blood, completely no longer the haughty appearance before.

"I'll stop the bleeding for you!"

Ning Yue fought her way through the crowd and rushed to the other side, immediately reciting the mantra silently in her mouth, raising her palms flat in front of her body, a warm white gleam gradually lit up in her palms—although for some unknown reason, she unexpectedly It will make Luqiu Borong help with her life, but in order to save her life, she also wants to give back to him in this way.

However, before the girl could touch the opponent's body, the soldiers on both sides rushed forward, pushed her away fiercely, and threatened viciously: "Demon girl! If you dare to touch Your Majesty again, I will kill you!" Different place!"

Seeing this, Qi Ziyin quickly pulled out his Yin teeth, and blocked the girl behind him.However, the red-haired girl did not back down because of this, instead she took a step forward and said without explaining:
"She just saved my life, and I just hope I can help..."

The soldier didn't listen to what she had to say, he immediately raised his sword and was about to slash at her, but suddenly he heard someone angrily shout "Back down", it was Luqiu Borong who was seriously injured.

The empress was still lying on the spot without moving, she could only slightly turn her head to look at the crowd, but she still held back her strength and smiled at Ning Yue beside her:
"Don't... bother the girl... my body... already... can't do it..."

Only then did the red-haired girl realize that her shoes and socks had already been soaked in the blood from the opponent's body.She hastily lowered her head to look, only to see Luqiu Borong's body from the waist down has been turned into a blurred piece of bone and broken flesh under the pile of rocks.

"You... why did you save me?"

Ning Yue squatted down halfway, and took hold of the other party's hand that was reaching out to her.Daxin Tianzi tried his best to maintain his last trace of composure before he died:
"The turbid moon is falling, the sky is burning and the moon is burning... You are not lying... It's just that I didn't see it clearly... It's just these... Wei Liang men who were born and died... I... promised to...... leave alive..."

As she spoke, she looked at the worried soldiers beside her with a sad face, and then said, "...if there is a way...please...be sure...to live together!"

The red-haired girl knew how important the last sliver of comfort was to this strong woman, so she nodded without hesitation:
"Well, we will do our best to save people!"

However, Luqiu Borong saw a trace of confusion and disappointment in the girl's eyes, as well as pity and regret.The last light of hope in his eyes quickly dimmed:

"...Forget it...it's the end of the world...sooner or later...all of them will leave...at least I saved you...I also...did one thing right..."

"At this moment, Jiang Yan is still trying to figure out a way in the abandoned city of the ancestors! Everything is not over yet, don't give up easily!"

Ning Yue squeezed the other party's increasingly cold hand, but she couldn't stop the life from the empress's body passing quickly.She could only secretly recite the spell to dispel the endless chill coming from all directions for the other party.

"Thank you……"

Luqiu Borong's breath was extremely weak, it seemed that before she could spit out these three words, she lost her strength and was submerged in the last puff of white air from her mouth and nose.

There were faint sobs from the surrounding martial arts, but no one dared to step forward to feel the empress' pulse or sniff her breath.The red-haired girl saw, however, that the other party's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened a little wider, and the undulating mountains under the starry night and the already fragmented ice field were reflected in the crystal-clear eyeballs.

And just above the black and white ice field, an almost indistinguishable light was rising under the moonlight.At first, the light was as weak as a firefly in the dark night, but after a short while, it became bright and eye-catching, and then flourished.The color of the light is red like fire, like a long knife burning with flames piercing the sky!

"That's - it's Jiang Yan! It's Xiao Jieba who is trying to save us!"

Ning Yue was startled suddenly, but the tears in her eyes were like tears breaking a bank, surging down...

Just when everyone on the ice was struggling to survive the sudden changes, Jiang Yan, who returned to the dungeon, was struggling to find a way to prevent the end of the world from the ever-collapsing ruins.

He buried his sister's body in the crystal-like underground palace under the tower.This is the closest place to Ziyuan's dream, and it is also the place where she regrets for the rest of her life.The black-eyed boy thought, if there really are souls in the world as people say, then after his death, he might be able to come back here and recognize each other.

Right now, the young man is still wearing a blue high-necked satin burqa—that was the dress he wore when he married Tuya that day.Under the dress, there is a black lining that has long been worn white and embroidered with the dark pattern of sea falcons.The young Hehan also removed all the remaining armor on his body-they were too heavy and restricted his steps.

And Jiang Yan struggled to follow forward, but there were several thick pipes around him that were more than ten feet square.Those pipes are tied together with strong iron rings, like thousands of years old trees that have been cut down on the ground, extending far away in the dark underground, seemingly without end.However, the young man seemed to know with certainty that the path ahead of that pipe was salvation, although he was short of breath and his steps were vain, he did not dare to stop for a moment. .

The black-eyed boy clearly remembered that in the void under the tower, before the voice of the ancestor man disappeared, he vaguely mentioned some key things, which were buried deep in the ground.And in those pipes, he could clearly hear the sound of running water.The ability to listen to the sound and distinguish the direction of the flow that I learned from Uncle You in the past has come in handy again at this time.

Spring grows and summer grows, autumn harvests and winter hides. The reason why everything in the world thrives is inseparable from the nourishment of sunshine and rain.Now in this place that has been frozen for thousands of years, the only place that can provide warmth and moisture is the end of these pipes.And there, nine times out of ten, it is the place where the city is still able to operate. These underground hot springs have saved the lives of everyone before. The young Hehan feels that this is not a coincidence, but a secret God's will.

So he held on to the last ray of hope, hoping that this warm current could save everyone again.He prayed that he was right, otherwise all the things he cared about, cherished, and precious would all be turned into a sea of ​​flames and hell with the fall of the turbid moon!He doesn't want this to happen, he can't allow it!

As he continued to move forward, the ruined city of the ancestors above the young man's head also ushered in the final big collapse amid continuous vibrations.Suddenly, a huge boulder half a person's height fell from the sky and hit a section of pipe next to Jiang Yan hard, causing it to break on the spot.The water flowing through the pipe was also accompanied by a large cloud of white steam rushing out of the breach, it turned out to be scalding boiling water!

When the boiling water touched the nearby black ice and gravel, there was a scream of "chi chi", which made people's hair stand on end.And the water flow was too fierce, there was no way to avoid it, and it directly poured on the young man passing by!

The young Hehan let out a loud cry of pain, but he didn't stop on his feet. Instead, he shielded his eyes with both hands, and rushed forward at a high speed - if he was going against the current, he only had to rush through the damaged gap to have a chance of survival.And if he turned around right now, he would be engulfed by the water on the spot, and bump into the broken tiles and broken bricks scattered all over the dungeon like dog teeth.Even if it is not burned to death, it will be seriously injured!

Drilling through the curtain of water pouring down like a waterfall, Jiang Yan was finally able to take a breather.However, he didn't feel the cold or heat for a long time, he only felt that a layer of skin had been peeled off by life, and the excruciating pain almost made him faint.

He raised his arms, the exposed palms were completely bloodless, and the whole body was swollen, like a boiled bear's paw.And the clothes on his body also became like an armor full of barbs.The young man had to use his fingers, which could hardly move, to tear off the belts and buttons one by one.However, with a little force, the thin translucent skin burst open on the spot, and the light red body fluid wrapped in it flowed out.

But even so, Jiang Yan's black pupils were still staring straight ahead.After going through thousands of obstacles, he has reached the end of the pipeline.Now, what appeared in front of him was a heavy iron door and a slightly red sign on the door that seemed to be used as a warning.

Behind the iron gate, it seems to be the source of all underground hot springs.The door is not locked, it seems to be waiting for the arrival of the young man, and it seems that the god of death deliberately set up a suspicious array here, ready to draw the net and catch his prey.

Jiang Yan had no intention of worrying a lot, and pushed open the door with all his strength.Where the palm was pressed, two clear blood marks were left.

He staggered and continued to walk forward, but felt that he was about to lose his breath.There was something in that room that made every breath burn him like charcoal, as if his entire chest was filled with flames.Today's young people have removed all their clothes, but they don't feel a little relaxed.There was no longer a piece of intact skin left on his body, now he was like a sugar man about to melt, every time he touched a place, a small piece of flesh and blood would be torn off from his body.

But Jiang Yan could no longer feel any pain, and walked along the iron passage through several iron gates until a huge pool appeared dozens of steps ahead.There was a strange fluorescent light blue in the pool, and countless cables and unknown huge iron boxes surrounded it, making deafening bangs.

In the mind of the black-eyed boy, there are only two words left - stop.Facing the core that seemed to provide all the light and heat for the ancient city, he tried his best to tear the surrounding cables from the huge machine one by one like crazy.

The roar of the machine soon stopped, followed by a series of "clicks", and even the bright lights above the head were extinguished one by one from far to near.The water in the originally calm pool gradually boiled, and large patches of bubbles appeared.The blue light in the pool became more and more intense, as if calling to Jiang Yan.

The violent shock struck again, and the underground space the young man lived in could not escape the fate of collapse.Under his gaze, a large number of cracks appeared on the ridge above his head, and then shattered and peeled off, revealing a light blue ice shell and a clear starry sky on the ice shell.

In the starry sky, there was a blazing cloudy moon, and another city that was faintly discernible on the moon's surface.

"The turbid moon is to the earth what leaves are to trees and birds are to forests. When one falls, both fall, and when one prospers, all prosper."

Those ancient legends that his father had told, reverberated in the young man's mind again.Today, he no longer hears the noise next to his ears, and he no longer feels the piercing pain all over his body.In the line of sight, there is only the pure pool of water in front of him that emits blue light. It seems that many years ago, the Huaqin Pool in Mulu City, where the blue sky and white clouds are reflected, is even more like the face of the red-haired girl by the pool. On the top, a pair of looking forward to the bright eyes.

In a trance, the young Hehan suddenly discovered that the broken Xiaotianmo had somehow recovered by accident and returned to his feet.He immediately picked it up, jumped into the deep blue pool in front of him, and swung his knife to cut everything in the pool.Destroying the Mountain has never exploded with such a powerful power in the hands of a young man.Even under the water, there was a roar like a dragon chant, as if there was indeed a real dragon in the pool, about to rise into the sky and be reborn from nirvana.

The strength of the young man was so great that he smashed everything in the pool to pieces.Furthermore, the water in the pool became more and more boiling, and the faint blue light flourished, gradually turning purple, and then turning crimson.The light of the fire rose from the gap, and shot straight towards the cloudy moon in the sky, like a long flaming sword!

Jiang Yan exhausted his last bit of strength and lay flat on the water.Now above his head, there are still flashes of lightning and sparks flying.However, the rumbling roar that was always filling his ears stopped at some point.All around suddenly turned into silence.And all the young man could hear was his own short heartbeat that was getting weaker and weaker.

Finally, he exhaled the last breath held in his chest, and his waving limbs gradually hugged each other tightly, and his stretched and straight body curled up like a baby in a mother's womb:
"everything is over……"

Xiao Tianmo slipped from his hands, and gradually sank to the bottom of the pool along with his master.And that seemingly endlessly powerful long knife is nothing more than a long, slender iron rod that has long been deformed and twisted...
