Chapter 15 Obsession

The light elements flicker brightly, illuminating this place transparently.

The cave is about three feet long, and a stone bed is placed in the corner, occupying a small half of the space. In front of the stone bed is a stone box, half a meter wide and one meter long, with a simple taste, filled with crystal blocks as big as pebbles, crystal clear and gleaming.

"I discovered this hole a long time ago. Every time my father came, I wanted to tell him, but he came and went quickly. He just took one look at me and left. There was no chance to tell him."

Wutian comforted: "Your father must have something important to do, so we can't stay too long."

"Brother Wutian, how do you know? Daddy says the same thing every time, but I really want him to stay for a few more days." Shishi's small face was raised, pink and tender, with a hint of disappointment.

"Because everyone has something to do, don't you also want to take care of Xiaohua?" Rubbing the little girl's head, Wutian comforted, then walked to the stone box, picked up a crystal block, and looked at it carefully , His brows gradually wrinkled.

The crystal block has edges and corners, like a diamond, with a charming brilliance. Suddenly, a stream of heat overflowed from the crystal block, poured into the palm of the hand, and gathered into the sea of ​​​​qi.

"Essence." Wutian was surprised, the heat flow gave him the feeling that it was exactly the same as the essence refined by Xiaotian, even more pure, as majestic as a vast sea.

He put down his essence and stepped on the ground, which was full and hard. Then, he walked to the stone wall thoughtfully. It was very smooth without any cracks. He reached out to touch it, and a layer of lime fell off.

Wutian looked around, with enlightenment in his eyes.

This cave is very strange, as if a space was forcibly carved out of a huge rock. He suspected that this might be a cave where the ancients cultivated, because it was a kind of stone called iron rock, which was harder than black iron, and if there was any weathered powder, it would take at least a thousand years.

"Shishi, when you found this place, was there anything else?" Wutian asked.

Shishi thought for a while, and said: "It seems that there is a white bone. I think he is very pitiful, so he was buried outside."

"It seems so."

Wutian was very curious, and carefully looked at every corner. The ancients who practiced thousands of years ago, the caves where they practiced must not only have these essences, maybe there will be some strange treasures left behind.

Xiaotian was already happy, he jumped on the Jingyuan, looked left and right, saliva flew all over the place, and finally he lay on it with his legs crossed, with little stars in his eyes, and at the same time vigilantly scanned Xiaoyi. , obviously it is to be kept for itself.

It turns out that it is not only greedy for food, but also greedy for money!

Xiaoyi rolled her eyes, her snow-white head raised high, very disdainful, that means, take it away, I don't like these broken beads at all.

"Brother Wutian, what are you looking for?" Shishi looked at him strangely and wondered.

"Look for the treasure." Wutian didn't turn his head, knocking here, looking over there, not letting go of every inch.

"Hee hee!" Shi Shi smiled happily, and said, "This is the Cave of the Dead, what good things can there be?"

"Uh! Not necessarily, these essences are good things, but you don't understand, I think there must be other items." Wutian blushed, wanting to make a fortune, he walked to the stone bed and climbed down , reached out and fumbled under the bed.

"Huh? I seem to have found it." Under the stone bed, he touched a hard object, which was a little cold: "Shishi, please use it."

Shishi ran over curiously, lay down on the ground, and stretched her hand under the bed, the inside was illuminated brightly, and she could see clearly.

"Hey, there is really something!" Shishi was surprised, and wanted to take it out, but found that her hands were not long enough.

"Little guy, come here and help." Wutian couldn't reach it with his hands, so he asked Xiaotian to help.

Hearing that there is a baby, the little guy ran over, looked at his long and narrow eyes, and suddenly lit up, and ran in excitedly, but when he came out, he looked like he was not interested, dropped the things, and went Jump back onto the stone box.

This is a very ordinary ring, dark and very old, with signs of peeling off on the surface, without other decorations, but engraved with three tiny characters, twisted and difficult to distinguish.

"This ring is so ugly." Shishi pursed her lips, it is a woman's nature to love beauty, and little girls are no exception.

Holding the ring and looking at it for a long time, Wutian couldn't see why, he was a little disappointed, he thought it was a treasure, but it turned out to be just an ordinary thing. He was not reconciled, and searched for a while, but found nothing, so he gave up.

Maybe the owner of this cave is not very strong, so there are not many precious things, so he put the ring in his bosom casually, and Wutian started to act.

Although there are no treasures, these essences are not bad. They have existed for thousands of years, and the essence is still so strong, pure and thick. If they are all refined and absorbed, they will surely break through to a higher level.

"Quack..." The little guy refused to obey, and lay on it stubbornly, baring his teeth and claws, which meant that this was mine, and he was not allowed to take it.

"Let go of the little thing, you can't grab it with your brother." Shishi giggled because of being teased, and stepped forward to persuade him, but the little guy didn't want to get in, like a little miser, guarding private property, and refused to agree to be beaten to death.

"Die." Wutian's veins bulged, his face was as black as ash, but there was more fierce resistance, the little guy vowed not to let go.

Xiaoyi groaned and looked sideways, as if mocking, the little guy got upset and barked angrily at it, which meant, little white dog, wait for the uncle, I will take your skin to make underpants later.

One person and one beast glared at each other, and finally Wutian said that one person would be half, the little guy thought for a while before he was reluctant to compromise, but he was worried and wanted to distribute it himself.

The little guy took out one by one and divided them into two piles. Every time he threw it to the pile that belonged to Wutian, it would pause for a moment, its skin twitching, extremely reluctant and reluctant. Wutian and several people were watching, very speechless.

Time passed day by day, and Wutian had stayed here for ten days.

For ten days, he accompanied Shishi to play around, leaving footprints on every inch of this pure land. He saw all kinds of flowers and plants, and all kinds of strange monsters. They were very kind and never took the initiative to attack.

Since Xiaotian got the Jingyuan, he no longer has any ideas about Xiaoyi, nor does he wander around with Wutian. He moves the Jingyuan to the lawn, lies there all day long, and sleeps.

Every time he passed by here, Wutian would stare at the sky and be speechless, feeling sullen.

If the little guy grabs these essences to increase his strength, he won't say anything, but will support them instead. But it is only used as an ornament, as a mattress, purely for fun, isn't this a waste of money? He was very angry.

Prodigal son, this is his nickname for the little guy.

"Brother Wutian, you are cultivating again. I really don't know what's fun in cultivating. It's better to be happy and live a relaxed life." Shishi is wearing a white dress today, with big eyes twinkling like an elf.

She has never been so happy as these days. The vacancy in her heart seems to be filled, and she feels very fulfilled and warm. She has a dependence on this big brother who has not been with her for a long time. This is a dependence on her family.

Wutian opened his eyes, and the eyes sparkled with brilliance. These days, when the sun rises, he will come to the edge of the cliff to practice and absorb the essence of essence. It is worthy of being an ancient relic from thousands of years ago. At this point, one is enough for him to refine for a day.

From the cave, he obtained ninety essences, and only refined ten of them so far, but the essence in the sea of ​​energy has already become several times thicker, as sticky as paste, not far from a breakthrough.

Restraining his momentum, Wutian stood up, scratched her little nose, and said with a smile: "Cultivation is not for fun, it can become stronger, it can protect family members from being bullied, and protect Shishi from being snatched away by monsters. "

"Brother wants to protect Shishi, is it true?" the little girl raised her head, wondering.

"Well, of course it's true. Shishi is my brother's good sister, so naturally I want to protect you."

Shishi said joyfully: "That brother will protect me all his life, don't let people bully me, don't make me cry, pull hooks, don't go back on his word."

"Okay, brother will protect Shishi all his life." Wutian dotingly said, hooking up with the little hand and making a promise.

"Hee hee, brother, it's time for us to leave. I have never been out since I was a child. I really want to see the outside world." Shi Shi asked happily.

leave? Well! Wutian was taken aback for a moment, dare to be fooled by the little girl?

"Shishi, brother can't take you away, brother still has a lot of things to do, following me will only bring you danger, and if you leave, daddy won't be able to see you, don't worry about dying."

Before she finished speaking, Shishi's smile disappeared, her eyes gradually became red and swollen, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Brother, are you lying to Shishi with what you said just now? You are lying when you say you want to protect Shishi for the rest of her life and not let Shishi cry me?"

The little girl burst into tears, crying very sadly, which made people feel distressed.

Wutian hugged her into his arms, and said softly: "Shishi, brother didn't lie to you, brother's enemy is very powerful, if you follow me, you will be in danger of your life. Do you think this is good, wait for brother to finish his work, I'll come to accompany you."

"Things, things, all things, daddy is the same, brother is the same, they all use such lies to deceive me, I hate you!" Shishi pushed him away, turned and ran to the attic.

"clatter!"

A crystal teardrop fell into Wutian's hand, icy and cold, soaking into the soul. He really wanted to give himself a slap in the face, knowing that the promise could not be fulfilled, but he still made the promise.

"Grandpa, was the promise you made to me back then also a lie like this?" Wutian murmured with a sad look on his face.

He chased after her, grabbed the little girl, and said: "Shishi, I'm sorry, brother made you cry, brother promised you, we will leave tomorrow."

Now that he has made a promise, he must do it. He doesn't want Shishi to be as sad as he was back then. This is an obsession, and it is also a regret in his heart.

"Really? Brother didn't lie to me this time?" Shishi blinked her big eyes, somewhat disbelieving.

"En." Wutian nodded.

"Hee hee, I know that brother loves me the most." The little girl smiled happily, her face was full of yearning, she could finally leave here, and she was looking forward to the outside world.

On this day, Shishi did a lot of things, went to the flowers to pull weeds, told the little flowers to grow well, watered the pines and bamboos, fed the birds above, and went to see all the monsters in this pure land to say goodbye to them .

At night, all night long, she sat by the pond, looking at the stars in the sky, and told Daddy that she was leaving.

It wasn't until the sky turned white and the sun rose that she got up and went back to the attic. She didn't want her father to worry, so she left a letter.

She was reluctant to let go, this was the home she had lived in for twelve years, and she couldn't give it up for a while, the last few tears fell, and she made a clear voice, and she took Xiaoyi and left.
