    "Why don't you go into the valley?" Mu Xingqiu asked.  "I'm afraid of watching him die." Shou Que has gotten older, and her emotional loss has affected her remaining soul, which is directly reflected in her appearance. "I'm also afraid that I can't help but eat his soul." "You like it.  Him?" Shou Que blinked his tear-filled eyes, "Do you like it? I don't know, I just just want to listen to him, accept his instructions, and then work together with him.  Something." "A complete soul?" "No, your soul smells more delicious than his. He hasfaith, the strongest faith I have ever seen. I hope to be as firm as him.  Don't you have this idea? I feel that we are in the same boat. Others know what we are living for, we are happy about it, and we are sad and afraid about it. Others are grounded, we are floating in the air, and others are awake.  "Look, only the two of us are still in the dream, but why are we the only ones left? Tell me, is this a dream?" Shou Que stared at Mu Xingqiu, as if he was General Mu.  , hoping to get something firm from him.  This is exactly what Mu Xingqiu cannot give her, "You are right, we are both the same, this is the punishment for losing memory." Mu Xingqiu walked into the valley, and Shouxiang cried again in disappointment.  , waited for a while, and followed him into the valley from a distance.  Two people drifting with the current naturally drift towards the only solid land.  The sound of whispers spread from the middle of the valley to the surroundings, like groups of green silkworms eating mulberry leaves. Due to the damage to his inner elixir, Mu Xingqiu's third eye was not as sharp as before, and he could only see shadowy crowds in the night.  They were chatting in low voices, and some were praying intently.  Most people are holding statues of gods in their hands. This is not something that General Mu conjured up with magic, but something they made themselves out of mud and wood, which looks even rougher.  Some are just a branch.  "The ancient gods have blessed General Mu with immortality. Let me take his place. It doesn't matter how many times a useless old guy like me dies. General Mu doesn't deserve to die." The old woman held her grandson's hand tightly with one hand.  Holding the idol in one hand, he begged the ancient gods in a low voice.  The little grandson¡¯s eyes were rolling around, but he didn¡¯t dare to say anything, until he saw the person coming towards him and couldn¡¯t help but take a breath.  Still didn't dare to speak and kept shaking grandma's arm.  The old woman opened her dim eyes and looked carefully under the light of the stars and moon. She was also shocked, "This is not you are not" Mu Xingqiu's appearance caused many misunderstandings. The crowd came and retreated because of this "  "General Mu" was different from the other one. Not only did his hair be shorter and his clothes more tattered, but his expression did not have so much compassion, but a kind of detached indifference.  Even so, the mortals in front still gave way.  There was a circle of people kneeling around the platform. They were all General Mu's original followers. When they heard the noise behind them, they turned around and saw Mu Xingqiu walking towards them. They were all surprised. They had forbidden others to approach General Mu.  , but at this time, he automatically got out of the way.  General Mu was sitting on the earth platform and did not appear to be seriously injured.  But his face was frighteningly pale. When he saw Mu Xingqiu, a smile appeared on his face, "When I heard about losing memory, I guessed it would be you." "Do you recognize me?" Mu Xingqiu said.  Come closer.  General Mu nodded and said to Shou Que, who followed him: "Please set up a restriction. I want to talk to him alone." Shou Que set up nine restrictions one after another, all of which were mental illusions. He still had some ideas and tinkered with them for a while.  After thinking about it, I quit the restriction and gave up my place.  More and more mortals gathered around. They could see two "General Mu" who looked almost exactly the same, but could not hear what they were saying. The people who arrived later had not seen Mu Xingqiu approaching before and thought they were  This was General Mu's magic, so he couldn't help but ask around, so the sounds in the valley changed from silkworms chewing leaves to rain hitting banana trees.  "My name is Jin Cu, and you are the real General Mu. Do you want to hear your past?" "I'd betternot listen." Zuo Liuying once reminded Mu Xingqiu that it was best to know less about himself.  Although Mu Xingqiu didn't like this gesticulating Taoist priest at all, he felt that his words made sense. A mind that was too full might have trouble accepting the lost memory.  "Do you want to hear my past?" "Yes." "I am not a descendant of the demon clan. My mother is a brocade-tailed horse from Pangshan. My father is from Yelin Town and is an ordinary bay-red horse.  , it has some connection with you, so when I turned into a demon, I turned into you unconsciously. Other than that, we have no relationship. You and I are not brothers. I was once a spirit.The king of horses, the king of demons, even before I transformed into a demon, I could compete with the King of Horses.  I believe that I am a born king. This is my belief, so no matter where I go, I will consciously and voluntarily shoulder the heaviest responsibility, and everyone is willing to follow me, because wherever I go, there is always danger.  " "Is this why you came to Huangjing?  Did you expect that there would be a catastrophe of the Five Elements?  "No, I knew nothing about this disaster before I came. I wanted to challenge my own abilities. It was too easy to be the king in the past. I used the fear and expectations of the demons to gain support easily. This  It made me more and more arrogant, thinking that I was different, but the facts proved that I was just an ordinary monster, or even worse. Because of my arrogance, I refused to correct my shortcomings.  So I walked into the human territory, and I came to the Imperial Capital, because this is the place least likely to accept me. I thought that if I could get support here, I would be considered a true king.  "    "I see.  "Mu Xingqiu felt Jin Cu's frankness and understood why he wanted to talk in private. These words were not pleasant to mortal ears, "What is the way of the weak?  Did you make it up yourself?  Jin Cuo shook his head, with a mysterious smile on his face, "The way of the weak exists, but it is not what you or others see."  " "Is the spell you taught me wrong?  "Mu Xingqiu was a little confused. Zhao Chuye and others thought Jin Cu was a liar, but he believed in "General Mu" just like Shouxiang. "The spell is correct, but it is not the original intention of the weak.  "Jin Cu paused for a while and began to talk about his experience of enlightenment in the forest. Mu Xingqiu listened silently and found that he agreed more and more with Zhao Chuye's point of view, "Don't you feel that you have been deceived?  The old man Hong Futian and the group of women from Zhibu State were probably transformed by magic to trick you into accepting the so-called 'Way of the Weak'.  " "It is said that when children are sick, parents will make up lies to trick them into taking medicine.  In the forest, I was the sick child. He knew the medicine was good, but refused to take it because he was afraid of the pain. So he took a roundabout way to get me to take the medicine.  "    "who is he?  Jin Cuo opened his collar, revealing the tree-shaped pattern on his chest. It had grown a bit, but it was still a small tree. "Have you ever heard of the sacred tree in Zhiyu State?"  Oh, I heard that you don¡¯t remember.  It was once the source of all spiritual methods in the world, but was later killed by Taoism and the demons.  " "You got the soul of the sacred tree?  " "The sacred tree has no soul, it is itself. The external shape and internal quality are indistinguishable, and there is no place for such a thing as a soul.  Let me ask you, what happens to a tree when it dies?  Mu Xingqiu was stunned, "It will rot and thenbecome food for insects and nutrients for other vegetation."  " "What happens after death?  " "It's almost like a tree.  " "Where is the sacred tree?  " If Mu Xingqiu had some realization, he thought for a moment, "It wants to nourish a new tree Are you that new tree?  " "I'm not. At most, I'm just a little bug that eats part of the sacred tree and then spreads it.  " "I don't understand, if the sacred tree is dead, why can it still transform old people and women?  Why still choose you?  " "It didn't choose me, I chose him.  Jin Cu's eyes shone because he was about to talk about the core of the way of the weak, "Some things will only appear in front of the seeker, such as a puzzling problem, a new practice method, such as your memory, even if they appear  In the eyes of irrelevant people, they will not be recognized.  In the forest, I was the one suffering from the disease, searching hard for a cure, and then it appeared.  Do you understand?  It was there, but I found it.  If anyone deceived me, it was myself. I deceived myself into taking the bitter medicine and realizing the way of the weak.  " Mu Xingqiu seemed to understand something, but when he thought about it carefully, he became even more confused, "Then what is the way of the weak?  " "The way of the weak is the vanity and ambition of the strong. There are many people like me in this world. Please allow me to reveal a little bit. You used to be like me. You were born to want to be a leader. For this reason, you were even willing to leave.  Enter dangerous places, because only dangerous places have more opportunities to get ahead.  The weak and the strong are not two completely isolated creatures. There are many things that connect them. The weak attracts the strong to throw their lives and blood. In this process, power is just a means.  Even the most indifferent Taoist priests are unknowingly being used by the weak. The competition, fighting and fear between them have cut down big trees so that the grass below can see the sun.  " "Even so?  "Mu Xingqiu pointed at the broken scene around him. The damage caused by the Five Elements Catastrophe was right in front of him. Not a single mortal survived. "This is just the beginning. You will only know the result after you see it.??Who wins and who loses between the strong and the weak.  Kun Chao is the greatest powerful man, so he is also the greatest scourge. He has aroused public anger, and he will be the one who falls in the end.  " "Then what's the point of everything you are doing now?  " "All this is to satisfy my own vanity. I have been satisfied, Mu Xingqiu, it's time for you to continue.  "    "I?  " "I borrowed your appearance and name. From this point of view, we are indeed brothers. I suspect that I even learned my vanity and ambition from you, so you should continue.  There is no need to gather mortals together. Once the situation is calm, they will soon fall apart. Let them be, the more dispersed the better, they will spread the ways of the weak to the world, inspiring more vanity and ambition.  " Jin Cu stood up, came to Mu Xingqiu, and motioned for him to walk out of the restriction together. Nearly ten thousand mortals looked at the platform. They saw Mu Feidian fell and General Mu walked out alone. (Please recommend and subscribe.  ) (To be continued.)?¡­
