Some people are in the light, yet feel surrounded by darkness. They want to break through this endless darkness and embrace the sliver of light shining through the cracks in the rocks. They want to embrace the light, but some people are destined to walk in darkness for their entire lives.
Fu Ziyi and Baili Xiuwen inexplicably emerged from that place one day, unharmed. However, they were initially unaccustomed to the light and raised their hands to shield their eyes from the glare. When they looked ahead again, they realized that they were in the same spot where they had fainted.
The two couldn't take it anymore after watching for a while when a voice came from the side, "Come quick, everyone come quick! There are still two living people here!"
Despite their years of vigilance, Fu Ziyi and Baili Xiuwen remained alert. When those people spoke, they seemed to be covered in quills, looking at the person who had spoken with suspicion and trying hard to see clearly. However, the strong light made it impossible for them to see what was in front of them, and it also made them dizzy and their eyes sore.
"Hey, it seems like there's something wrong with your eyes. Don't open them yet. Don't worry, all the doctors are at the foot of the mountain. They'll definitely be able to cure your problem. Don't worry!" This person could comfort people even in his spare time, and his tone was very gentle, which was truly rare.
Although Fu Ziyi and Baili Xiuwen did not let their guard down, they did not keep their eyes open for their own sake. Fu Ziyi already felt that his vision was a little blurry. The damage to his eyes had not yet healed, so when he was exposed to such strong light, he naturally felt more uncomfortable than Baili Xiuwen.
At the foot of the mountain, the people were busy, everything was so hurried yet orderly, and everyone moved very quickly. Among them was Sect Master Huangfu. He led his men away from this place. After they left, these people found an opportunity to go up the mountain on their own without any warning. He and his men went up from behind, wanting to catch the enemy off guard, but they only discovered this when he found out.
Seeing the corpses scattered on the ground with no one cleaning them up, he guessed that the place was probably deserted.
The wind was blowing. On the first floor, everyone was suddenly puzzled by Qi Guze's disappearance. The Grand Elder took his seat again to calm everyone down. "Do you think our Venerable One is the same as the previous Venerable One? Otherwise, why would he suddenly disappear? Moreover, the events surrounding his disappearance are so similar, without a trace. This must be because he is the same as the previous Venerable One!"
"What nonsense are you all spouting? Stop talking nonsense here! If I find anyone else talking nonsense, kill them without mercy!" In order to prevent more dissenting voices from emerging, the elder began to control these voices and prevent them from talking nonsense. However, the more he did this, the more everyone formed their own conclusions and imagined their own judgments.
Therefore, all the things the Grand Elder did were completely futile.
When Yan Zhi woke up and realized she was still alive, her eyes were filled with confusion. She clearly knew she was about to die when she was lying on the ground, and the feeling she experienced was definitely not fake, so why was she still alive?
Yan Zhi was puzzled by this and looked at his body a few times, trying to find the problem.
When the people next to her saw that she had woken up, they asked with concern in their eyes, "How are you? Is there anything wrong with your body? If there is anything wrong, please tell us so that we can take a look."
Yan Zhi stirred slightly before realizing that the wound on her chest was real; she really wasn't dead. "Where's Xu Yuehuai? Where is she? How is she?"
Almost everyone who knew Xu Yuehuai said the same thing when they woke up. The doctor was used to it and gave the answer he had prepared in advance.
But the moment he spoke, he noticed that the person in front of him was somewhat absent-minded, even a little desperate, worried that the patient he had finally managed to save might commit suicide. The doctor quickly added, "Birth, aging, sickness and death are things that everyone will experience, so there is no need to be sad about such a small matter. Perhaps she has just gone to the next world ahead of time. It is not too late to go to the next world to find her after you have finished what you did in this world."
"You might even meet again in this world." The doctor really knows how to fool people.
Yan Zhi lay on the bed, tears streaming down her face and onto the sheets. She still couldn't save Xu Yuehuai. But in her prophecy, Xu Yuehuai was clearly not dead. She had gone to a very special place. If she had died, what would be the point of her memories?
Yan Zhi was puzzled, but this question was destined to remain unanswered. Everyone had been searching for Xu Yuehuai for so long without finding a single clue. She was alone and powerless, so how could she possibly have the ability to find out the real reason behind this?
Yan Zhi left when her injuries had almost healed. She was very sad. So much had happened in this world on the second floor. Every day, people wanted to betray her. In just a few months, they had experienced far too much.
She didn't want to keep causing trouble, so she went back to the third floor and settled down at home. No one dared to say anything to her, or they would be in trouble the next second.
...
In another world, where birds sing and flowers bloom, everyone anticipates and awaits something, and finally, one day, it comes true. The person they've been waiting for finally appears before them, and all their waiting and anticipation transforms into something tangible at that moment, bringing satisfied smiles to everyone's faces.
Pu Pu looked at the river flowing backwards, her eyes filled with confusion. She asked her aunt, "Mom, why is the river flowing backwards? Will this cause a problem? Is someone coming?"
One question after another arose. When Aunt Pu saw the river flowing backward, she suddenly thought of the girl who had taken in their home. The girl had an extraordinary air about her, carrying the essence of a good person. She thought that such a good person should have a place to belong.
The river flowing backwards means that the person who came here back then has gone back. She smiled and hoped that this was that girl. It would be a good thing if her wish came true.
Pu Pu smiled at her mother. She didn't quite understand. She was all grown up now and could go to the world of martial arts in the book and see the scenery of places other than this border village. If she could meet Sister Xu on the way, how wonderful that would be.
