Mu Xingqiu fell on the grass outside the South China Sea forest with his son in his arms, and in a small pothole, he saw a few scorched weeds, which had been burned to ashes, but those grasses remained in their original state, and when the breeze blew, they also swayed, and tiny red dots flashed near the ground.

There had apparently been a fight here, and it was so short that neither of the spells had gotten out of control severely, and it could still last for a while on a few grasses.

Other than that, there was no sign of fighting nearby, and the woods were unusually quiet, as if there was not even wind.

Mu Xingqiu looked at Mu Dong'er in his arms, and took his seriously injured and unconscious son into a dangerous forest, which seemed to be a wrong decision, but Mu Xingqiu had nowhere to entrust, and the three grandmasters would still find their target sooner or later, so it was pointless to hide.

Mu Dong'er still slept sweetly, under the protection of his soul, his soul was temporarily worry-free, but the condition of his physical body did not improve much, although he survived the death period of midnight, he was still cold and hot at the same time, and it would be reversed every once in a while, making Mu Xingqiu holding him even more painful.

It's about to dawn.

Mu Xingqiu stepped into the South China Sea Forest, using his super sensibility to find traces of the spell, and after nearly half a mile into the forest, he found that it was a very weak spell, like the fragrance of vegetables flowing from the crack in the window, fleeting, only the most sensitive nose could smell and identify the direction.

The South China Sea Forest is a dense forest, but there are no thorns and weeds blocking the way, and the trees are very clean from one tree to another, only a thick layer of dead leaves that have accumulated for many years, and they are as soft as a carpet under your feet.

The spells floating in the air came and went, Mu Xingqiu had already determined the direction, strode forward, the speed became faster and faster, walked out of seven or eight miles, and came to a tree hall.

The tree hall is circular in shape, with a diameter of more than 100 steps. The surrounding trees form a wall, all of which are tall and luxuriant, and they are connected in the air to form a roof.

In the middle of the furnace was placed seven or eight feet high, the fire in it was so weak that it was almost extinguished, and three feet above the furnace hung a boxy bluestone slab, and a puff of smoke rose from each of the four corners of the slate, condensing into the shape of a tripod at a height of four or five feet.

An extremely powerful spell was being carried out here, but Mu Xingqiu could only feel intermittent clues.

There was no one in the Hall of Trees. It was all thanks to the furnace that provided a little light.

Mu Xingqiu knew that danger was nearby, so he stopped and wrote a talisman on his forehead with his right hand, the heavenly eyes were strengthened, and he could see more clearly, the fire in the furnace was not weak at all, it filled the furnace, pure and flawless, showing a faint red. It doesn't shake or shake, like a cold fire that has been frozen.

The four green smoke tripods on the stone slab are not unchanged, but disappear and condense outwards regularly, but at an extremely fast speed. I couldn't see clearly at all before strengthening the Heavenly Eye.

There was a ** nearby, Mu Xingqiu turned around and looked, just a dozen steps away, a child was sitting in a tree hole about a foot above the ground. The entrance to the cave was small, revealing only one of his small faces, flushed. It's all painful.

Mu Xingqiu looked around, there was not only one child in the tree hole, but thirty-three, around the tree hall, separated by several trees.

A young Taoist priest walked past Mu Xingqiu, silently, without squinting, as if he were an invisible ghost.

The Taoist priest walked straight to the furnace, pulled his two sleeves above his elbows, took a deep breath, opened his arms, and slapped the furnace one palm after another. The Taoist priest's whole body was trembling, obviously enduring great pain, but he did not stop beating, and the palm of his hand stayed on the furnace for longer and longer.

The Taoist priest walked while patting, and after a circle, his exposed arm was already red, as if he had been burned by an iron hand. He let out a sigh of relief, turned around, showed a happy smile for the rest of his life, and walked towards Mu Xingqiu, his eyes did not hide anymore, and even spoke.

"The fire of the Tao is not extinguished, because with the Taoist priest as firewood, death is burned out, and then there is new firewood added by itself, but there is some firewood that will not burn out, they will always remain burning, become the caretaker of the Taoist fire, lo and behold, I have passed the test, I will ......" The Taoist priest stopped telling and looked down at his arms, they were no longer pure red, but a few more pieces of green, like charcoal about to be extinguished.

"I passed the test, I obviously passed!" The Taoist priest stopped, his voice was full of anger and fear, suddenly, the Taoist robe on his body burned, he did not raise his hand to put out the fire, nor did he roll on the ground, stared at Mu Xingqiu blankly, and said the last sentence: "Help me......"

The flames engulfed the Taoist priest in an instant, and a moment later, he melted like molten iron and flowed to the ground, where he was quickly absorbed by the thick dead leaves, leaving nothing behind.

Mu Xingqiu didn't save him, as early as when the Taoist priest slapped his first palm, he felt the strong strength of the furnace that did not go out, and knew that the Taoist priest would definitely not be able to withstand it.

That is Wandi Mountain does not extinguish the furnace, and the stone slab on it is the Hongshan Instant Stage, which Mu Xingqiu can guess.

The second Taoist priest who came out from the opposite side walked to the fireside without patting, looked at it for a while, and turned his gaze to Mu Xingqiu, who was dozens of steps away, "We need a better Taoist priest who is in charge of the furnace." ”

The person who came was Yang Yannian, the grandmaster of Pangshan, holding the Demon Suppression Bell in his right hand.

"What about people?" asked Mu Xingqiu.

"You've lost your memory, they're just two women you've known each other for a while, do you still care?"

Mu Xingqiu held Mu Dong'er with his left hand, summoned the Patriarch Tower with his right hand, and held it tightly.

Yang Yannian showed a sneer, "Don't talk much when you can fight-you are still the same Mu Xingqiu as before, and losing your memory has not changed everything, no wonder you still care about the two of them." ”

"Amnesia has not changed everything, but the Taoist priest whose memory is still alive has completely changed. ”

"You don't remember what the Taoist priests were like. ”

"I will hear from others that there are many legends about Taoist priests, you are powerful, you kill demons, and you take it as your duty to protect mankind, and many people believe that the ancient god must also be a Taoist priest. If the legend is true, the change in the Taoist priest is really too great, and if the legend is false, you have been hiding for many years. ”

Yang Yannian showed a real smile, "The world has changed, and Taoist priests can't stay the same." It's like you swear to love only one person in this life, but when that person dies, is the oath still valid? But it is no different from death, it is only a matter of time before you perish, and the Taoist priest sees farther, so he makes changes in advance, which may seem cruel to the surviving mortals, but the 'future' will understand all this. ”

"Future, whose future? Without mortals, Taoist priests will also become extinct. ”

"Look, this is the biggest change in the world, what if the Taoist priest has an immortal body? But there is no need for new sources. The farther a person looks, the more strange his behavior becomes, and when he sees the farthest reach, even the end of everything and a new beginning, what do you think he will do?"

Mu Xingqiu didn't speak.

"The longer he looks at the future, the more he wants it to happen sooner, because that future is better. This is what the patriarch is doing, he is not understood by sentient beings, and there is no need to be understood. Because sentient beings are not in the future. ”

Yang Yannian paused for a moment, "Open your eyes a little and look at the future, not the distant future." You can't even use half an hour, what can you see?"

"Nothing. Mu Xingqiu said.

"You're lying, because the future is too cruel for you, so you refuse to admit it. Half an hour later. Qin Lingshuang and the Dragon Demon are one side, Mu Dong'er is one side, and both sides may die or live. Or all of them, depending on your choice now. ”

Anger flashed in Mu Xingqiu's eyes.

Yang Yannian patted it on the demon bell, and the bell reached the furnace, and the wall of the furnace turned red all of a sudden, and then became transparent, revealing what was inside the flame, it was a mirror, and the mirror was facing Mu Xingqiu, and the mirror reflected the face that was both strange and familiar.

"You can choose to fight, the ending is to die, you can also choose to compromise, exchange Mu Dong'er for Qin Lingshuang and the Dragon Demon, and take charge of the furnace for us, the ending is one death and one life. ”

Mu Xingqiu stared closely at the mirror in the furnace.

"If you need memories from the past, I'm willing to provide you with some, all in all, Qin Lingshuang once died for you once, do you want to let her die for you again?"

Mu Xingqiu's gaze turned to Yang Yannian.

"That's right, you were lovers, and you were even willing to give up your cultivation for each other, just like those short-sighted mortals, you made a decision based on your feelings at the time, thinking that this decision would never change, but God did not fulfill your wishes, she died for you, and you gave birth to a son with another woman. If you had known this outcome a long time ago, would you have sworn an alliance in the first place? This is the difference between a Taoist priest and a mortal, and it is also the difference between an ancestor and a Taoist priest, and he has seen the end. ”

Mu Xingqiu figured out at this moment why Zuo Liuying didn't let him know too much about the past, memory is the soil of the future, the farther away he sees the future, the more fully prepared, and the stronger his strength will naturally be, but the future is also a constraint and a trap, and the powerful Taoist priest is powerless to extricate himself from it, and he doesn't want to extricate himself, and it is easy to become an accomplice in the future.

Mu Xingqiu has no memory, no clear future, everything is uncertain for him, maybe this is Zuo Liuying's expectation.

"Kun Chao does not see the future. Mu Xingqiu didn't know much about the Taoist Patriarch, but he saw his true nature, "He is creating the future, and only those who succumb to his power think that it is the future." ”

Mu Xingqiu raised the Patriarch Pagoda in his hand, "The future does not exist, my choices are not just two, but endless." ”

Yang Yannian summoned all the magic weapons, "In this way, you choose to die together." ”

The other two Grandmasters and other Taoist priests came out of the woods and formed a half-circle, facing Mu Xingqiu, they wanted to save some work, but it seemed impossible.

"As I said, you can't convince him. Xiang Haisheng waved Ruyi, and also summoned a large number of magic weapons, and Dai Zhen held the sword washing pool, also prepared.

The three Grandmasters didn't want to see any more surprises.

Mu Xingqiu didn't think about the future, and he didn't care if he could defeat the three grandmasters and dozens of Taoist priests, he used the patriarch tower as a pen and instantly wrote the first talisman on Mu Dong'er's chest.

He wants to use flesh and blood as ink, the patriarch tower as the pen, and his son as the paper, and write a unique talisman in this world.
