The Exorcist - v8 Chapter 26
Ruan Zhan didn’t know everything that happened at night, nor did he know the father who didn’t love him in his heart. He stood by his bed all night, staring at him for an instant, and then reluctantly left at dawn. , And told Xiaoxia not to tell her son that he was here. He was afraid that his son would not be able to leave the affection between father and son in his heart, and when he started to be empathetic, the consequences would be disastrous.
Ruan Zhan just thought that he was too tired, so he fell into such a primitive dream, sleeping so deep and sweetly, wasting the time with Xiaoxia. For this he was very upset, because he was afraid that would be the last night they could stay together.
Over the past few days, he has been exhausted, and the gap in strength forced him to study the strategy of the duel, and psychological pressure also put him on the verge of collapse. How hateful, the way he worked hard to win was actually used on his father, there is more tragic thing in this world than fratricide? However, he had no choice from the day he was left. In fact, no one had given him a choice, including his birth.
Now that he was standing on this bare mountain, his heart was getting tangled bit by bit with his endless array of killings. In a direct fight, he has no chance of winning anyway, and even though he understands in his heart that he can’t save his father’s life, he still hopes to be able to get out of his soul, hoping that his father will not be so miserable.
He learned this formation from the book left by Master Long. This old man who had never met gave him too much help, and he couldn’t repay this kindness. There are many ground formations in the book. It involves astronomy, geography, the Book of Changes, Feng Shui, and even ancient Chinese astrology. He used one of the formations when dealing with the demon boy. At this time, if he wanted to defeat his father who was so powerful that he could barely win the battle, he had to choose one of the most powerful formations called “Absolute Array”. When introducing this formation, the first line in the book is-this formation. No birth and no benevolence, those who enter the battle have nothing to stay, use with caution, use with caution!
He hesitated, because the formation was called Jue formation, and there were warning sentences in front of it. It shows that once the formation is activated, it will not stop without killing all the souls in the formation. It is really a dangerous and vicious formation, but the evil spirit on the father’s body is too heavy. If it is the most helpless moment, it will be completely destroyed. It is also better than becoming a devil and destroying the world. He was cruel, but had to persecute himself. This dilemma and self-defeating mentality made him suddenly understand his father’s mood back then. So at the moment before the duel, he forgave his father from the bottom of his heart, because he deeply realized the helplessness he couldn’t help himself.
The formation is super strong. Just need the strength of the formation to be super strong. He didn’t have that strength at first, but Uncle Bao’s collection of charms like the magic weapons of the secluded martial arts helped him a lot. In addition to the harsh environment of Tietou Mountain itself, even the dead trees at the entrance of the hidden cave were all there. The position is so appropriate that he can barely achieve this murderous formation.
Set up a good array. He laid out other formations outside, as a last resort, he didn’t want to activate this formation, hoping that there would be other ways to live this dead move. And he didn’t worry that doing these fathers in broad daylight would be peeping, because his father absolutely wanted to stop himself, so he wouldn’t take precautions in advance. But despite this, it took him a whole day to prepare. But this is only a material preparation, and his heart is still very empty. It’s not like the firmness and fearlessness of fighting.
He glanced at the darkening sky and wanted other people to go down the mountain. He didn’t want other people to participate in this scene of the tragedy between their father and son. Let their father and son take care of it, and there is no need to drag others down. Besides, the advantage of the Jeopardy is that after the formation is set up, no other people are needed to guard the position. The people and souls in the formation are not exhausted, and the killing will not stop in this formation, and there is no way for people outside to crack it.
Therefore, this is called Absolute Array. Therefore, the book says to be used with caution! Therefore, he didn’t want others, especially Xiao Xia, to see all this, because in the end he might die together with his father, how could he bear the heart to let the most beloved person witness all this with his own eyes!
“Go down the mountain.” He didn’t dare to look into Xiao Xia’s eyes. “If there are too many people, it will get in the way.”
“It won’t interfere with you, kid.” Uncle Bao said indifferently, “I set up an enchantment on the valley side, otherwise, if someone passes by, they will find an anomaly here, and tomorrow this supernatural event will cause trouble. of.”
“Tonight, the weather is abnormal, and it will attract a lot of evil things. I want to collect souls and spirits from the nodules. Please lend me your broken flag.” Bao Datong said without waiting for anyone to ask him, “I am anyway. It’s useless to keep it. I have collected evil spirits to refine, which will be of great benefit to me in the future!”
Ruan Zhan knew that their father and son had already negotiated, and it was useless to let him say anything, so he turned his eyes to Wanli. He has an ominous premonition in his heart. It is very likely that he will not see the sun tomorrow morning. He hopes that Wanli will understand his intentions, take Xiaoxia away, and then take care of her and accompany her until she can be without him. ,calm life.
How much he hopes to create miracles, he has been working hard for so many days, but the more things come, the more he feels that his death is approaching. The only person his father was sorry for in his entire life was him, and it was Xiaoxia that he was sorry for. I love him, but I can’t give her forever.
“I–I want to watch the lunar eclipse, a spectacle that has only been seen once in decades!” Wan Li simply said casually, lying without any quality.
Don’t look at Xiao Xia, Wan Li’s reaction has shown that Xiao Xia threatened him, so no one can escape the torture of tonight.
The sky slowly darkened, and the light did not respond to Xiaoxia’s prayer at all, and disappeared a minute later. When the night entered the middle stage, and when the stars and moons in the night sky reached their brightest time, Uncle Bao made a calculation and said to Ruan Zhan, “The time has come.”
This voice is compassionate and kind, but it sounds like a horn for life in everyone’s ears. Xiaoxia’s heart tightened, but she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
Can’t show any failure to press it. Otherwise it will only make Ruan Zhan uneasy. Bear it again and wait until he leaves without worry, she won’t be too late to cry. She told this to herself. So when Ruan Zhan turned to look at her land, he saw her approaching with a smile.
“Let you take this for a while, and return it to me tomorrow morning.” She hung the treasure of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva amulet around his neck and kissed his lips heavily, “You know how difficult I am, if you want to If you don’t pay it back, beware of the consequences!” He didn’t wait for him to answer. He slowly retreated.
Ruan Zhan understood the heart of Xiaoxia, so he didn’t answer, but smiled softly, thinking that if he had to die tonight, he would be gentle and become the last image in her eyes.
Behind the tall Cangqiu dead tree, the hidden cave is like the mouth of the devil hiding under the canopy grass, and the gap in the distance that splits the whole mountain is like a giant knife in mid-air. Everything made Ruan Zhan seem particularly vulnerable and lonely when he walked over with the Blood Wood Sword. But no matter how turbulent his heart is, his footsteps are still steady and his demeanor is still calm. Just walk towards death step by step.
This made Uncle Bao sigh and understand the feelings of old friends. In this life, he did what he wanted to do, and there are sons like this, what regrets he died!
Xiao Xia almost collapsed when Ruan Zhan disappeared at the entrance of the cave. If it weren’t for Wanli’s support, she might have fainted directly. Her disguise can only end here, he took away all her strength, and at this moment her tears can flow down unscrupulously.
“Hold on, slow down, he hasn’t beaten it yet! You are crying now, and when he comes back without injury, you will suffer.” Wan Li felt like a knife cut, but he said lightly. “Let’s go and hide behind the rock, otherwise your husband will be distracted for you, and lose his temper.” He took Xiaoxia and walked behind a big rock.
At that time, Uncle Bao had chosen it. In fact, although Ruan Zhan had exhausted his efforts to set up the formation, Uncle Bao, his father and his son also had their own small plans, and only Xiao Xia was kept in the dark. The war makes women go away, and there will be a war here tonight. Father and son, good and evil, light and darkness, it is better to let Xiaoxia stay away. She has such a pure and lovely personality, which is hard to come by in this complicated society, so protect her.
Uncle Bao had already done the division of labor in advance. Uncle Bao arranged the enchantment, and Bao Datong was outside to collect the evil spirits attracted by the evil spirits and celestial phenomena into the shattered flag, and he took the remaining charms after the formation, waiting for Uncle Bao The handprints of fire were issued at the first order. Also, he wants to protect Xiao Xia, in case there is anything wrong with Azhan, he must beware of her doing stupid things.
At this time, Ruan Zhan was walking in the long and dark cave. He didn’t bother to illuminate, but walked slowly based on his feelings, guarding against all changes in the dark. From the very beginning, he intervened in the supernatural event, and in every battle he defeated the strong with the weak, but every time his opponent was not as strong as his father, and no opponent would have such a fierce and miserable viciousness to help out. Moreover, he had been helped before. Today, he has to do it himself. It is not easy to overcome the strength gap and psychological pressure, but he must do it, because at that time his father’s wish was for him as a son of man. Obligations. In addition, if he can’t stop his father, the few people outside the cave will have to die, and those few people are very important to him, Xiao Xia is everything to him, he will not hurt them if he tries to destroy himself.
A laugh similar to a cold snort came from the depths of the cave, gloomy, malicious and excited. Ruan Zhan’s heart shuddered and stopped. At that time, his father’s voice had been deformed, but he could still hear it. Does he start to mutate now? It is not yet the moment of the lunar eclipse, although he understands that his father will slowly change before the lunar eclipse, and when the entire moon is dark is the time when he becomes a demon, isn’t it too early? Is he really too bad to be suppressed? But his father changed within that moment, and for him, it was much more difficult to stop him. The moment when he became a demon was when his father was the weakest, and when he was the strongest, then there was a glimmer of hope, and it had to be delayed until that moment.
He paused and raised the Blood Wood Sword above his head, illuminating the road within a few meters ahead. Only now he reached the halfway of the mountain tunnel, but the blood wood sword emitted a red light of excitement as soon as he raised it, indicating that the evil spirit in the cave had been filled and leaped. But the red light did not flourish, which proved that the evil spirit inside was strong and weak, and it also proved that the father was still trying to control the last.
This made Ruan Zhan sad. He would rather his father become a demon now, and a battle between father and son would be better than his father torturing himself like this. Has he come here for decades? When he was still a human, he suppressed and calculated, and after he became a soul, he stayed lonely in this gloomy mountainside, wanting to vent a little bit of anger and prepare for losing to his son. How difficult it was. This kind of day should end sooner, so that the father suffers less.
He walked, thought, watched, and walked to the innermost part of the cave. The front suddenly brightened, like a ray of sunlight from above the cave, dazzling and dazzling, under the white light, his father’s figure suddenly appeared. He was standing under a rock wall, his soul’s limbs were bound by four silver invisible chains, trapped in the innermost layer of the cave, unable to move.
Ruan Zhan stopped once again and looked at his father’s complexion. I saw that although his appearance has not changed, the black air around him is strong and intense. The whole person seems to be steamed by black weapons. His face changes between excitement, madness and love and pain. The obvious shadow, obviously the mind has not been completely controlled, the righteous and evil spirits on his body are torturing him alternately.
Ruan Zhan was so embarrassed to see his father in such a miserable situation, his mind was confused for a while, and he wished to go forward and untie his father.
“Don’t come here, Azhan!” Father Ruan suddenly yelled. At this time, his Yintang lightened slightly, pushing the shadow back, and he was sober~www.mtlnovel.com~ It’s not the time yet, can you What helped me is to be merciless. If you can do it, even if we don’t have father and son in vain. Go back now, at least a hundred steps away, hurry up! “
“Dad—” Ruan Zhan let out a choked voice and called out the word. Their father and son stayed together for decades, but he always thought that he was an adopted son, and his father was so cold, as if he didn’t want to see him. Therefore, he just called this word secretly in his heart, and he didn’t even say it in front of his father. pass.
Father Ruan was stunned for a moment, and his heart was also aching. Understand that Azhan cannot be allowed to have feelings for him, otherwise he will be even more uncomfortable, but why is this child’s cold appearance, but his heart is so hot! He reminded himself to be more unfeeling, but for a moment, evil spirit prevailed again, and his consciousness was blurred.
“Who are you? Come to die? Come and let me see!” He yelled, not knowing what he was doing in his mind?
But this was a great blow to Ruan Zhan. Seeing his father’s Yintang was enveloped by black air, he was still immortal, worried about his appearance, and was replaced by fierce and fierce air for a while. Struggling forward too, trying to get rid of the shackles of the silver chain, rushing over to eat him!
Hurring, the solid rock wall in the cave was shattered every inch by his struggling, if it weren’t for the chain to plunge deep into the rock, Ruan’s father would have broken out at this moment.
