Chapter 224 Borrowing Life

What does death feel like?

I think that anyone who is alive should not be able to explain it clearly.

The days in Zhenwu Temple are fulfilling, but also monotonous, so we always like to have a chat.

Lao Bai once said that he had communicated with a ghost. The ghost died of liver cancer. In the late stage, he was in great pain. When he really closed his eyes, it was a kind of relief.

It said that at that time it felt like it was floating. It was obviously dark all around, but it was particularly warm, just like there were countless cotton candies under its body, soft and elastic, and even made it wish it would never wake up.

What scared me was that when I closed my eyes, I actually felt the feeling that the ghost said, warm, the darkness was soft and elastic, and there was a sweet smell.

But I didn't sink into it, but my soul was trembling.

So, am I dead?

I can bear the cause and effect of killing the dragon vein, but I can't bear the life of cutting off a three-corpse wood?

Or maybe it was because I was too short-lived to cut off the Three Corpse Wood, so I died?

I don't know why, but I was really scared and struggled madly, but it was useless. The boundless darkness seemed to move, wrapping me, dragging me, and drifting away...

This was a long process. I had no concept of time and distance. I didn't know how long I had been drifting, or how far I had drifted...

Until I heard a pleasant sound of fluttering.

That seemed to be... the sound of wind chimes! ?

Yes, it was the sound of wind chimes, and it sounded so familiar.

In a trance, a dull roar suddenly sounded in the darkness. I couldn't tell the gender, just like some kind of low roar emitting syllables.

"Soul, come back!!"

"Soul, come back!!"

The roar became louder and louder, and in the end, it was almost deafening.

The darkness was torn apart!

Softness and warmth disappeared, replaced by complete coldness.

Swish!

I suddenly opened my eyes, and a ray of morning light came into my eyes, which made me squint slightly. I subconsciously stretched out my hand to block this ray of light, but soon I found that my whole body was frozen and I couldn't lift my hands at all!

Moreover, I felt that I was shaking?

Like, I was being carried?

This situation doesn't seem right! !

I struggled to open my eyes a little, and in the sunlight, my eyes were almost crying. Then, I saw clearly that Lao Bai and Zhang Xinya were carrying me. They looked sad and carried me to a dug pit without saying a word. Brother Yaozi was leaning on an engineer shovel and standing expressionlessly at the edge of the pit...

Is this going to bury me? !

I...

I wanted to struggle, but my whole body was stiff, I couldn't move at all, let alone speak, only my eyes were squinting a little, this was the only way to prove that I was alive!

Look at me, look at me, look at me! !

I stared at Lao Bai, roaring in my heart.

But the two men looked like they couldn't bear to look at me. They tilted their heads and didn't look at me. They silently lifted me to the earth pit. Lao Bai let go first, and my upper body slammed into the earth pit with a "bang". I almost died from the fall.

"Lao Bai!!"

Zhang Xinya shouted angrily, and then her expression turned sad. She said faintly: "Can't you be gentler? What if he still feels pain now?"

"He's dead, so how can he feel pain? When he was alive, you didn't say that you would take good care of him and cook two more good dishes for him every day. Now that he's dead, what are you doing here? Whether you are good to people or not is not determined by how many tears you shed after he dies!"

Lao Bai said expressionlessly: "If you want to talk about pain, I'm in more pain than you are now. You are still I have two friends, but I only have this one buddy in my life, what can I do? I have been guarding for two days and one night, and I am frozen. I want to rest in peace as soon as possible! However, this road must go on. Jingzhe risked his life to save Mr. Zhang and to win face in front of that woman named Qingzhu. We can't fall behind. Let that woman see that we can save people without relying on them, Tianmeng. Do this thing, and it will be worthy of Jingzhe! "

To be honest, I didn't expect this scumbag to understand my feelings so well.

But, I really feel the pain!!

Although we are all people who pursue reality, can we also perform superficial etiquette? It's not hard! After all, the dead are the greatest!!

Ah, I'm not dead yet!!

So, I struggled hard, and finally opened my mouth with great effort. Just as I was about to make a sound, Lao Bai took the engineer shovel from Brother Yaozi without saying a word, and "grunted" a shovel of dirt towards my face, directly hitting my mouth full of mud, and I couldn't make any sound.

At this time, this grandson seemed to have a guilty conscience, and finally looked at me, with a meaningful look, as if he wanted to remember my appearance, and then... He was shocked and finally noticed my open eyes.

I was overjoyed, and I shouted in my heart: "Yes, look here, look here, I'm still alive, hurry up and pull me up!!"

As a result, Lao Bai sighed and said - my poor brother, he still died with his eyes open!

So he jumped down and forcibly closed my eyes that I had finally opened.

This is simply a real pitfall. I was almost pissed off to death. I was so angry that I spurted out the mud in my mouth.

Lao Bai yelled "Ah!", jumped up, and shouted: "He's dead! Quick, please ask the black donkey hoof, yes, the black and thick one, to put it in his mouth. I heard that this kind of cultivator is particularly powerful when he is dead. We have to ask for a big one!"

Plop!

Brother Yaozi jumped down suddenly, pushed Lao Bai aside, put his ear to my chest and listened for a while, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. He shouted: "What do you mean he is dead? He has a heartbeat and is still alive!!"

The three of them immediately rushed into the pit and carried me up in a hurry.

Finally, I was not buried alive!

I breathed a sigh of relief. The struggle just now made me feel very tired. I felt like a weak newborn. I exhausted my physical strength after just a few small movements. I felt extremely tired. My head tilted and I fell into a coma...

...

When I woke up again, I was already in a simple shed. This shed was built by tying up the dry branches of trees in the mountains with ropes. The ropes on it were pure new climbing ropes, which we brought with us when we came out this time. The temperature outside was still cold, and the cold wind was blowing "wool la la", but at least this shed blocked most of the wind.

I was wrapped in thick cotton clothes layer by layer, including those of Brother Yaozi, Zhang Xinya, and Lao Bai. There was a bonfire next to me. It was obvious that they had been focusing on keeping me warm.

I moved my joints and my body was no longer stiff, but I felt very, very weak and couldn't muster any strength.

Outside the shed, Lao Bai was squatting in the snow to deal with a rabbit, while Zhang Xinya and Yaozi were busy piling more dry branches on the shed. Their faces showed a crimson purple color that only people who have lived in the plateau for a long time would have, but it was obviously not plateau red, but cold. It seemed that they had been stationed here for quite a while.

I was weak and couldn't sit up, so I coughed lightly.

Time and space seemed to be frozen at this moment. The movements of the three people outside the shed were almost stagnant at the same time. After a moment, they turned their heads slowly and looked at me in disbelief. Then, they looked at each other for a moment, and then three faces bloomed with almost dazzling smiles, and they squeezed into the shed all at once.

In order to keep warm, the shed was very small. I saw three thermal sleeping bags outside. Obviously, they had been sleeping in sleeping bags in the cold weather recently. After squeezing in here, the shed became crowded.

I could see clearly what they had done for me. Looking at the three people crowded around me, my nose was sore and I almost cried.

"Welcome back."

Zhang Xinya helped me up from the pile of cotton clothes, smiled and said, "This time you really went through the gates of hell."

Brother Yaozi was originally smiling, but when he heard this, he immediately closed his mouth, covered his white teeth, and said with a stern face, "You are the only one who can do it? You are the only one who can do it? You are always rushing to do things that are punished by heaven. Don't think that you are a ceremonial officer and you are tough. There will always be things in this world that you can't handle, just like this time, you are already dead, do you know? Your life span cannot withstand the cause and effect of beheading the three corpses!"

This statement is absolutely horrifying.

Dead people?

I can hear my heartbeat and feel my breathing. I am obviously alive and well, so how can I die?

However, when I really heard what Brother Yaozi said, I fell into silence and seemed very calm.

Dead?

My intuition told me that I was indeed dead when I cut off the Three Corpse Wood!

The boundless darkness, strange warmth, and the feeling of being wrapped in countless marshmallows were unmistakable!

Then, I remembered the roar in the darkness again—Soul, come back!!

I am not an idiot. All this is clear in front of me. When I was unconscious, or more precisely, when I died, something must have happened!

After a moment, I nodded, with a very sincere attitude, and told Brother Yaozi that I knew it was terrible. The cause and effect in this world is really terrible. No wonder my master would avoid cause and effect at the first time no matter what he did. After two consecutive losses, I already understood how to write the word "rules".

Brother Yaozi's expression eased a little, and then I immediately asked, why am I fine now when I should have died? What happened?

"Lend me your life!"

Brother Yaozi looked at him with a complicated expression and sighed, "Old Bai lent you twenty years of life..."
