The Spirit World

Chapter 869 One Leaf, One Heart, One Bodhi
A lake.

Lakes, mountains, seas and lakes are full of spring scenery.

A single leaf in a boat.

The bow and stern of the boat are built on a wall.

"Maybe there is no other candidate except you..."

The man in black robe stood at the bow of the boat, and his heroic posture turned into a conspiracy, causing the surrounding water to slowly move away, forming ripples on the boat leaves.

The sky has no boundaries, the earth has no joys, and the mountains and rivers are naturally charming.

"I think so..."

Another man in a black robe and a bamboo hat stood at the stern of the boat, quietly waiting for the side boat to take him to the distance.

"Perhaps, you did guess right this time... and I did lose once..."

Under the hat is an old face.

He has his own name.

Name: Xiao Qingshan.

The green hills remain unchanged, and the green water flows forever.

Maybe, there is someone in this world named Lushui? Hahahaha... If it sounds better, maybe, he should be called Xu Changliu.

However, if there is Xiao Qingshan in this world, there may not be Xu Changliu...

"Humph, I finally guessed it right this time... Even if that impostor doesn't destroy Bailing Mountain's foundation, he will still be able to control Bailing Mountain in his own hands. This should be... not a good situation for any force, except... us."

The man in black robe looked at the spring scenery all over the mountain.

Green, sometimes, can actually present an unbearable feeling of suffocation. When a person is surrounded by some dark green, the terrible breath he can feel will definitely make his heart and lungs stop and cause him the most fatal harm.

Afterwards, he could only deceive himself and take all the burning resentment on himself, and everything thereafter would be related to Green.

"Hahahaha... Xiao Qingshan, even if you know the truth, what does it matter? It still can't change your fate of being left to rot in the wilderness?"

The man in black robe enjoyed mocking her to his heart's content; her ugly face was reflected in the ripples at the bow of the boat.

She may be a woman, but she is neither human nor ghost, and has lost the "beauty" of a woman. Only an ugly body is left laughing wildly.

Xiao Qingshan looked around and felt a sense of emptiness and futility.

"It should be my turn..."

Xiao Qingshan sighed softly. The carefree and comfortable feeling of finally being free came over him, causing his originally upright back to sag slightly. He was already that old.

Perhaps, someone has long needed to lie in a coffin and have a sweet dream.

How could that person not be myself?
Of course it can be me, then, I am bored, so I just accept it. This time I feel empty and lonely.

It's so green here that it's scary.

The green oppressive feeling made it difficult for everything to unfold, and it emitted a huge joking hum.

This smile was filled with endless sarcasm.

"Really? The Prime Minister is truly a genius~ Ah~ Hahahaha!" All her sounds were like the harsh sound of glass rubbing against each other, sharp and ticklish, out of control, and only after a shudder could it end.

"Yeah, it's my turn now... Among the group of people who fought for peace, it seems that we are the only ones left who are shameless enough to survive."

Xiao Qingshan coughed, and the woman in black robe suddenly looked at him. When she saw Xiao Qingshan motionless, she breathed a sigh of relief as if she was still frightened.

"I really miss it..."

He laughed.

He was wearing a gorgeous black and white robe, as the prime minister's uniform was not with him. This single piece of clothing might be enough to show that he was now a high-ranking official, but it could never show his identity as the prime minister.

"I always wonder if you guys... can understand human emotions... whether you are monsters or beings of some significance... can you analyze or understand human emotions... but I know that what I faced together with my former comrades does require some strength to allow me to calmly accept that I am about to leave... this... is very bad news for my camp."

Xiao Qingshan calmly looked at the mountains and rivers in spring. In the countless beautiful days, he enjoyed the leisure time, traveling and playing in the water. Perhaps he felt that his nose was a little blocked. The rare thick green with a suffocating feeling quietly buried all the beautiful things and then tore them apart.

"This world can never go back to the past, Prime Minister Xiao, don't you realize it yet? Once the world line returns to the origin, it is basically impossible for the flow to continue."

The woman in black robe glanced at Xiao Qingshan again.

Around him, bluebirds and flying fish are happy and linger. If they can be his long-term companions, they will never change in this life.

She slid slowly around in excitement.

The stern of the boat, which can only be moved by the bow, is like a tail following behind. It is naturally a tail, but it is accompanied by the overlapping flowers on the lake.

"God just wants to restart this world! This cannot be disobeyed! This is God's will!" Her eyes were red with excitement.

"We are just following orders! What a noble ideal! What a noble belief. As long as the gods say they don't like it, they need tools like us who can help them."

She makes no secret of being a tool.

A tool for killing, a tool for conspiracy, a tool to be discarded after use.

"You can't defeat us! We have gods behind us! You tiny mortals have no chance of being our enemy!"

The god she longed for made her accept this dirty world that needed to be restarted.

"Of course I realize it..." Xiao Qingshan nodded slowly, as if he was silently approving, but his eyes were fixed on the bottomless green pond.

He stared at himself quietly in the green pond.

The ripples slide towards the world on both sides layer by layer. The waves will not surge, the sea will not churn, leaving only a quiet and dead world.

That may be the other side of life.

"Of course I realize that."

He repeated, staring closely at his reflection in the water.

"But, for me, it doesn't matter anymore..."

He closed his eyes, sighed and uttered these words, as if they were not said by him.

"In fact, I should have died a long time ago... My life should have belonged to someone else a long time ago... It's only because he risked his life to save me that I was able to accept the fact that I was still alive..."

"..." The woman in black robe gritted her teeth but said nothing more.

"Right... In a world like this, a world where gods exist, what future do humans have? You are like a kind of person who can help gods eliminate the dregs that are different from them, and return the world created by gods to its original origin..."

Xiao Qingshan had such a great enlightenment that he felt quite emotional. Anyone who had seen the true source of power in this world would naturally wake up.

The spiritual world is the spiritual world of gods.

As always, it is being dominated by the gods.

As long as the gods want, they can destroy it without any scruples...

This kind of world that cannot be thought of or glimpsed by "human beings" is perhaps too futile for Xiao Qingshan to describe. Because, Xiao Qingshan alone, just an old boy, cannot do it at all...

"So, now I suddenly understand how tragic it is that that tiny life died because of me... I didn't even need his consent, I just let him die for me..."

Xiao Qingshan laughed at himself.

"A long, long time ago, I should have been the one to die, but now, it should be my turn... He was left alone. In that era, at that time, he died before me, and in the end, he died in front of me, and died for me."

He finally stopped standing stiffly and shook his head lightly.

"Only when he died did I feel alive. How pathetic... I don't quite understand, but it can only... become my own nightmare in the distant future."

"Now, I'm finally free... On the contrary, I should be happy..."

he said to himself.

No, in this world, no one needs to talk to themselves.

It was only because he was about to die that he recalled him, who was buried deep in his memory.

That poor creature who died for him, like a wandering ghost.

But, he died after all, and Xiao Qingshan died with him.

Now, perhaps he is the only one living alone in this world.

He and Xiao Qingshan, the two of them, live together as Xiao Qingshan.

Then you can live without feeling so guilty.

"This is, a, terrible, thing."

The black-robed woman snorted sarcastically, "Of course, that's for you, not me... When I heard that man was dead, I was so happy! Forgive me, dear Prime Minister Xiao, but I am the scum of the god in your mouth. A little bug of the god~ Hahahaha, I should be happy for your sadness, right~"

Hahahaha!

The black-robed woman's voice was as loud as a bell.

She was indeed consistent in her words and deeds, laughing at the huge rock that was pressing on Xiao Qingshan's heart. It was so heavy that it suddenly smashed into Xiao Qingshan's heart, making him suffer from inability to extricate himself.

"Perhaps, I should really die... I have lived long enough... God has wanted my life a long time ago. Now, he has finally realized that he needs to take me away... There can be no hesitation for even a moment."

"Oh..." Xiao Qingshan's body was emitting dazzling green light. The suffocating green light was too shocking, and it made the sorrow slowly climb up Xiao Qingshan's head.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister Xiao. For you, a mere human, you often don't understand the behavior of gods. You don't understand why gods like to create all kinds of races, nor do you know why they keep a "shocking secret". Of course, these are not very important. The important thing is... you don't need to be sad about it."

The woman in black robe said in a hypocritical and pitiful tone.

"Sometimes, I don't quite understand, but I know that when I can understand the behavior of God, I have already surpassed God, and I am no longer just... uh... God's dregs."

She laughed again because she thought it was funny to tease Xiao Qingshan, but when she saw Xiao Qingshan's stern face, she gritted her teeth in anger and said fiercely: "Asshole... You really look like those old people who need to be buried a long time ago. Do you humans still expect all of us to give up on this matter? Do you humans still expect the gods to forgive you for destroying the world?"

The woman in black robe put her hands on her hips and snorted.

"How is that possible? The gods would like to see all the races they created destroyed, preferably once and for all, without leaving even ashes."

"Since the gods have the power to create tribes, then creating another tribe with different attributes is just a toy left behind to pass the time."

"do you understand?"

The woman in black robe deliberately raised this sentence very high.

Instead, say it calmly.

"I should prepare a good coffin for myself..."

Xiao Qingshan ignored this lonely patient who was almost talking to himself.

Instead, he muttered to himself and slowly sat down.

The green leaf boat moves along the cloud.

"Although that's the case, to be honest, it shouldn't be the Emperor who collects my body... If a state funeral is held at this time, wouldn't it be too much of a fuss and lead to even greater conflicts?"

The surface of the lake moved bit by bit, accompanied by more, endless ripples.

"Well, it seems that it is not my job as a dead man to worry about the future. However, I still hope to leave something behind... not just because I am the prime minister, but also so that they can remember me."

Xiao Qingshan shook his head and sighed.

Memories flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern, intertwined with his own thoughts, hoping that he would be able to break through his own medical skills.

The black-robed woman at the bow of the boat became more and more angry, and she even bit one of her teeth to pieces, which was unimaginable.

She is naturally jealous.

No good-looking appearance,
There is no nice sound.
no friend,

There is no love,

There was nothing that could be said.

It seems that except for the final killing,
Nothing good at all.

Jealousy is natural and can destroy a person completely.

"I don't care. It's really amazing... I actually feel like I don't care. Hahahaha, I'm really a monster who is born to be difficult to mess with. Among so many things I want after my death, what I actually want is a good coffin."

Xiao Qingshan seemed to be getting happier, and his gloomy mood finally dissipated.

He rocked the boat and calmed down everything in the world.

"You! Xiao Qingshan!"

The woman in black robe gritted her teeth and spat out the teeth in her mouth.

Bright red blood slowly flowed from her mouth.

Then there were her dry red lips, which at this moment actually turned as bright red as a beauty's.

The red blood made her look scary.

But she gritted her teeth and it was hard to see that she was "all good".

"You will definitely appear in the wilderness! I will throw the item that holds your identity next to your body, and then wait until everyone in the empire knows you! The Prime Minister of the Empire! Killed by others! Abandoned in the wilderness! Disgraced!"

The woman in black robe swallowed her own blood.

She wiped her lips.

Her ugly lips became strange yet familiar as they lost their redness and freshness.

All, all good...

It came to her briefly and disappeared in a flash.
