Villager of Destiny

Chapter 503 At the Foot of Mount Tai
Hearing Li Bowen's words, I felt relieved.

Even if I walked into Rashomon Gate in person, I would still be worried that Li Bowen would choose to refuse to leave here.

Because I can see it.

His paranoia.

And in that paranoia, there is also a little sadness and fear.

He wants to get out of here.

I don’t dare to leave here.

Because maybe he is really the only one left in Tianshi Mountain now.

It's no longer the case before, at least there is still Beiyin's lineage.

It's very likely that it's true...

There is no one left!

Although when I met him, he was unwilling to return to Tianshi Mountain, nor was he willing to tell me that he was from Tianshi Mountain. I even knew his identity from Zhang Mingyu.

After learning about Tianshi Mountain.

He still wants to go back.

That is his home.

his roots!
This is what I came here for.

I can't stop what happened at Tianshi Mountain. If I can save Li Bowen's life, I can't let him die here.

"go home!"

I whispered, and at the same time Liu Shan and I supported Li Bowen on the left and right.

The old Taoist priest Li Bowen, who was unreliable in the past but was the first to let me know that the current City God was no more than a false god, was obviously much older at this moment.

Such oldness.

It comes from the aging of the soul.

Not long after, the three of us arrived outside the Dead Souls River.

It was also at this time that Liu Shan stopped.

He looked at me and thought for a moment and said, "Xuan Tian, ​​let's separate here."

"You're going to Tarzan."

"Daozhang Li is going to Tianshi Mountain."

"I want to go to Niang'er Village."

When talking about Niang'er Village, Liu Shan's eyes were obviously filled with emotion, which was the emotion of longing.

"it is good!"

I nodded slightly and did not refuse.

In fact, the purpose of my coming here is to get them to leave the Dead Soul River.

As long as they don't die in the Dead Soul River, nothing else matters to me. I won't refuse Liu Shanhe and Li Bowen wherever they go.

I’m not surprised at all that Liu Shan chose to go to Niang’er Village.

Expected.

"Buyi is also there."

I say.

Liu Shan smiled.

"it is good!"

Watching Liu Shan leave, I looked at Li Bowen.

"I'll go to Tianshi Mountain with you."

Li Bowen also waved his hand, "No need."

"Tell me, I'm not in such a hurry."

"I want to go back to Baiyun City first."

"Go to the ghost house and pick up some things."

"Then I'll take you there." I said.

Li Bowen still refused: "I can't help you with your trip to Mount Tai. The next thing is between you and Lord Taishan."

"no matter what the result is."

"I can't interfere anymore."

"Old Taoist, I only want one thing from you."

"Say." I looked at Li Bowen.

Li Bowen bowed to me and said, "No matter when, please don't forget these sentient beings."

"The suffering of all living beings."

"The thoughts of all living beings."

My body trembled and I quickly supported him.

I can feel the emotion in Li Bowen's words.

That is truly caring about these sentient beings.

"I won't forget!"

I said seriously.

At this moment, I also knew that my relationship with Li Bowen might have completely changed. From the moment he met you, I was no longer the boy he called me.

Not even the outer disciples of Tianshi Mountain.

After receiving my promise, Li Bowen suddenly had a smile on his face. After he coughed dryly, he broke away from my hand and said, "In that case, let's say goodbye here."

"I'm not in a hurry." I shook my head and said, "I can take you to Baiyun City first."

Li Bowen refused: "What matters to you when you go to Mount Tai this time is these sentient beings."

"We can't lose a moment." "Time is running out."

"Even if I am unable to do anything now, I can still feel that there is really not much time left for sentient beings."

I froze for a moment.

Li Bowen was already staggering towards Baiyun City.

"Boy."

"I, Li Bowen, am honored to be able to join this game."

"It is my great honor to be able to teach you some skills."

"But I hope you can remember."

"Think about it, who are you!"

"in this way……"

"I, Li Bowen, will die without regrets!"

Looking at Li Bowen's retreating figure, I had mixed feelings for a moment.

His words penetrated deeply into my heart.

I originally thought of coming here to pick up Li Bowen and Liu Shan, so that I wouldn't be so alone for at least a while.

Now it seems.

They will leave eventually.

And I want to be alone after all.

one person……

Also good.

I sighed, looked away, and walked in the direction of Mount Tai.

I respect their choice.

Wherever they go, whether they want me to follow them or not, is their freedom and I cannot interfere.

But I am the same.

I also hope they survive.

Too many people died.

Even if they may not really die.

But in this game, their life and death are closely related to the chess game.

If I can't make this game a draw.

Then there will eventually be a winner between me and Lord Taishan.

If I win.

Those who are dead may really be dead.

If I lose.

They might be able to survive.

But if I lose...

This world will no longer exist.

I'm in a dilemma.

So I can't lose.

Likewise, I can't win.

This game can only end in a draw!

Thinking of this, I felt a little more determined.

This time when I go to Mount Tai, no matter what, I must let this matter have a result. As Li Bowen said, there is no time. No one can wait forever. This game cannot go on forever. There must be someone result.

After taking a deep breath, I quickened my pace a little.

I lost track of time.

I forgot how long I walked.

Just keep going.

Finally a towering mountain appeared in my eyes.

A lively village also appeared in front of me, and I stopped.

The village is called Fujun Village.

It seems that it is named after the Lord of Taishan Prefecture.

When I stood at the entrance of the village, I could see at a glance that every house in the village seemed to have a portrait posted in front of its door, and that portrait seemed to be that of Lord Taishan.

The village is at the foot of Mount Tai.

Looking up, you can see the towering mountains.

It's much more spectacular than I imagined.

And as soon as I arrived here, I felt the aura of Lord Taishan.

It's not obvious, but it's real.

His aura hovered in Mount Tai, wrapping the entire Fujun Village in it, seeming to be protecting everything in Fujun Village.

And faintly, I could see that there seemed to be a temple on top of Mount Tai, and it seemed that there were people going up the mountain towards the temple.

After hesitating for a moment, I walked in anyway.

My arrival soon attracted some people's attention.

But they just glanced at me and seemed not surprised at all by my arrival.

I just walked among the crowd until I reached the other side of the village and at the foot of Mount Tai before someone finally stopped me.

"Are you going up the mountain?"
