He has been reincarnated through countless worlds, adorned with billions of mythological terms!

His mind went blank.

He remembered that his mother had scolded him this morning, asking him where he had gone yesterday.

I remembered that yesterday my father was chopping firewood in the yard, cursing under his breath:

"If you dare to take your sister out again, you little brat, I'll break your legs!"

He remembered the day before yesterday when Chen Ya was running after him, her two short legs moving incredibly fast, calling out, "Brother, brother, wait for me!"

It's all gone.

Adou sat in the middle of the yard all night.

The next day, at the crack of dawn, he stood up, staggered to the back of the yard, and rummaged through the woodshed to find half a shovel.

He started digging a hole in the open space.

One shovelful after another.

The soil was hard, mixed with gravel, and my palms went numb with every shovelful.

The wound on his hand reopened, and blood flowed down the shovel handle, staining the shovel head red.

He didn't stop.

For a day and a night, without food or water, they mechanically dug.

Both palms were worn raw, blood and mud mixed together, forming a thick layer of bloody mud.

But the pit is still not big enough.

Not to mention burying the entire village, there wasn't even enough room to fit the bodies of my father and mother side by side.

Adou stood beside the shallow pit, looking at the pit and then at the corpses scattered on the ground.

Then he laughed.

Silently, wildly, laughing until his whole face was contorted.

He laughed until tears streamed down his face, his shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and finally it turned into hoarse, intermittent roars:

"Ah Dou, you're such a good-for-nothing..."

"Can't even dig a proper hole..."

He threw down the shovel, walked to his father's side, and forcefully dragged the stiff body.

Halfway through dragging, my hand slipped, and my father's head rolled to the side.

Adou picked it up again and gently placed it back around her neck.

Then go and drag your mother away.

The two people lay side by side in the shallow pit, their legs sticking out.

Adou knelt by the pit and pushed the soil in one stroke at a time with his hands.

Grains of soil slipped through their fingers, covering half of their faces.

"Father... Mother..."

The voice was very soft, like someone was coaxing them to sleep.

"You guys lie here for a while... I'll come back and find you a good place after I find my sister."

"I promise."

"I will definitely find my sister."

He wiped his face and stood up unsteadily.

Just as I was about to set off, I froze.

After standing there for an unknown amount of time, I finally gave a self-deprecating laugh:

"Wow, I'm such a loser."

As he stood up, he suddenly remembered that he had always stayed in the village and only occasionally went to see the big bird.

They had no idea where the government offices were or which city was the nearest.

They didn't even know who their murderer was.

His gaze unconsciously drifted into the distance.

That direction.

The direction of the valley.

The direction of the big bird.

His lips moved, and the light in his eyes flickered before dimming again.

"Big bird..."

He muttered something to himself, then started running, stumbling and staggering, in that direction.

He wanted to say a final goodbye to the big bird.

……

evening.

Yun Yi opened his eyes.

Adou emerged from the woods.

No, that can no longer be called leaving.

He looked as if he had been pulled out of a pool of blood; his clothes were torn to shreds, and his hands were ulcerated beyond recognition.

As he approached the stone platform, before he could even speak, his knees slammed into the ground, followed by his forehead, and he fell to the ground in a spread-eagle position.

"Big bird..."

His voice was so hoarse it sounded like it was being forced out of his throat, each word accompanied by the sound of blood and grime from his teeth grinding together.

"Even though you don't really talk to me, as my best friend, I'm here to say goodbye."

The sound was very soft, almost swallowed up by the sound of the waterfall, but every word was extremely clear.

"I hope you won't be too sad without me, Big Bird."

After saying that, Adou struggled to get up.

But since I got back, I haven’t had a break for almost three days. I just got up and stumbled and fell down again.

He persevered and kept getting up, wanting to walk back.

Yun Yi listened quietly, somewhat puzzled.

What's going on?

He ran over covered in blood, just to say goodbye?

"Big bird..."

Adou's voice rang out again.

The boy was still kneeling on the ground, his forehead pressed against the soil, his whole body trembling slightly.

"Big Bird, I haven't even let you meet my grown-up sister yet."

He spoke haltingly, his voice growing softer and softer, as if he were talking to himself.

"I'm going to find my sister."

"Hopefully we can bring it back successfully this time."

His tone was noticeably different from usual, carrying a sense of determination.

Yun Yi looked at him and used the Eye of Truth to recall what had happened to him not long ago, instantly understanding what had occurred.

The air remained quiet for a long time.

"With your current strength, going to find her is just suicide, isn't it?"

Yun Yi spoke, his tone calm.

Adou stiffened, didn't look up, buried her face in the soil, and said in a muffled voice:

"I know."

"But I have no other choice."

"I've lost my home, my parents, and if I can't even take care of my younger sister, I'm not even human anymore."

"Big bird, I'm not afraid to die."

Yun Yi looked at him, and the corner of his mouth seemed to twitch slightly.

"What if I could help you?"

Adou's shoulders jerked suddenly, and he slowly raised his head.

The eye that could still be opened was bloodshot, and a moment of hesitation flashed in its gaze.

His hesitation didn't last long; he shook his head.

"Big bird, I know you're a demon, you must be very powerful."

"But that's the government."

"The government officials always kill demons on sight. If you help me, they will invite people from the immortal sects."

"The people of the Immortal Sect are very powerful. My father once said that they can move mountains and fill seas."

"This is my business, I can't involve you."

His tone carried a firmness beyond his years.

Yun Yi looked at him.

This guy, who usually can't even grill a fish properly, after going through something like that, his first thought was still not to drag himself down with him.

Yun Yi's lips curled up.

"You don't believe me?"

Adou paused, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Yun Yi spoke again:

"But after thinking about it, I think it's better if you do it yourself rather than me doing it for you."

Before Adou could understand the meaning of those words, Yunyi spoke again:

I will give you strength.

"It gives you the power to take revenge on yourself."

Adou's body jolted violently, as if something had hit the back of his head, and he stood there stunned.

He opened his mouth, and tears welled up unexpectedly, mingling with the blood on his face, and falling in large drops into the soil.

"Thank you... Big Bird..."

He choked up, barely able to utter a complete syllable.

"Thank you……"

Yun Yi shook his head.

"Don't thank me yet."

"I can give you strength, but whether you can hold onto it depends on your willpower."

Adou wiped his face hard, tilted his head back, and saw something burning in his right eye that Yunyi had never seen before.

"I can do it!"

"No matter how difficult it is, I can do it!"

Yun Yi looked into his eyes, remained silent for a moment, and then nodded.

"it is good."

The next moment, Yun Yi's eyes widened slightly.

The Eye of Truth locked onto the area, covering a radius of three zhang around A Dou.

Expand on the field.

Time is accelerated, ten thousand times.

hum.

The air jolted suddenly.

Centered on Adou, the space within three zhang seemed to have been accelerated by an invisible hand.
