As Ji Xu's pace deepened, he had walked a long way without realizing it.

Everything around was pitch black. Whether it was a tree or a grass on the ground, the only difference was the starlight that shone through the branches.

Ji Xu suddenly covered his mouth and coughed a few times. When he moved his hand away, he could clearly feel the stickiness in his palm.

I put it together at the tip of my nose and smelled it, and the smell of warm blood.

Ji Xu was a little stunned for a moment. He knew that his body had always been very good, especially when he condensed the qi and blood as sand. The hidden injuries left in his body and impurities in his blood qi were cleaned up. It was impossible for him to vomit blood like he had tuberculosis.

He bent his fingers and grinds them carefully in the palm of his palm until he applied the coughed blood.

The palms became dry and a little uncomfortable.

Unable to help, he coughed low and cleared his throat. This time it was even more serious. Ji Xu directly held the dead tree beside him, pain flashed in his eyes, and he spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth, and then coughed a few times before he felt comfortable.

"What's going on?"

Ji Xu wiped the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but feel confused and felt even more uneasy.

In the past, when I came to such similar places, my body would not have these symptoms. It was like a vain external spirit, which was incompatible with the environment here.

But now, it seems that I am a member of this world, and I feel quite "down to earth".

Ji Xu frowned and tried to mobilize the blood and energy in his body, but he couldn't even sense it. It was like an ordinary person who wanted to look inside his body, but nothing would happen except for the messy imagination in his mind.

At this moment, Ji Xu felt that he was just an ordinary person, a patient with tuberculosis.

He thought for a while, his eyes flashed, he broke off a branch from the branch next to him, tore off the dry bark from the broken mouth, revealing a sharp part.

Then, Ji Xu gritted his teeth and stroked hard on his left arm.

It hurts very much. The irregular wooden thorns pierced the skin, lifting up the epidermis and flesh. He could feel the blood overflowing.

Then, there was still a little numbness in the wound, with some slight itching.

Ji Xu twitched the corners of his mouth and threw away the branches in his hand.

Not only is it painful, it's also very poisoned.

I just thought about experimenting with myself in advance, and I specially found a withered tree, but I didn't expect that this dead tree was still poisonous.

Ji Xu took two steps, maybe it was because of the wound that was scratched deep or because of toxins. The blood on his arm slid along his arm to his fingertips and then dripped to the ground, without stopping the bleeding at all.

"It's indeed a different place from the depths of consciousness."

Ji Xu thought, he glanced at his arm, thinking that the poison should be not very toxic, at least there is no other reaction except a little itch.

Then, he staggered and hit the tree next to him.

My eyes were a little dazed, not only because I was hit, but more because of the effects of toxins.

Ji Xu supported the ground with his right hand, and found that he didn't have enough strength to stand up, so he suddenly exerted force, turned to face the night sky.

"It's a good place." Ji Xu sighed. The place where he was lying now was not the dense branches and sparse night sky between the branches and leaves, but the sky that was really unblocked.

In the sky, there are stars and no clouds.

The bright moonlight changed from half a moon to a full moon, and shone with light, which also shone on the man lying on the ground.

Ji Xu's mouth bent, as if he was laughing.

From the heart, he felt relaxed and comfortable.

I have forgotten how long it has been, and I haven't taken a good look at this starry sky, or the starry sky on the earth.

When I was a child, I would climb onto the roof with my grandfather Ji Tailin and lie on the wide rocking chair to count the stars. Ji Tailin next to him fanned him with a palm-shaped fan so that mosquitoes would not bite him. After Ji Tailin passed away, he gradually became bigger and the roof never crawled again. The rocking chair was covered with thick dust in the corners.

When I was older, I started to go to school, and I went to school during the day, and I was more dazed during class than playing during class, which also left others the impression that "this child has been introverted and shy since he was a child and cannot fit in the crowd."

In the evening, I went home to do my homework, have dinner, then watched cartoons with Ji Hanshuang for a while, and then went upstairs to sleep.

Ji Hanshuang never competed for TV stations with him, but instead kept watching Ji Xu. The two of them sat on the bench and held their cheeks to watch, but one was watching TV, and the other was watching TV.

At that time, there was another Ji Lian who would snatch the remote control and run away after changing the station. He just wanted the two of them to chase him, but Ji Xu and Ji Hanshuang never ignored him, just watched him run outside the house, and then walked to the TV to change the station back with the buttons on it.

Thinking about it now, Ji Lian at that time was just to let Ji Xu and the others play with him. The child's nature wanted to attract other people's attention.

Time flies. When Ji Xu grew up, he was in a hurry to study in junior high school, high school and college, and he was a little unsociable. He was thinking about how to work part-time and make money, so he didn't have time to look up at the starry sky when he was a child.

However, from the reports and occasional glances, he also knew that the familiar starry sky was becoming hazy and blurred.

Later, until the story is buried in my heart.

Looking up at the sky later was just a casual act, just like turning your neck, tilting your head, and doing whatever you should do.

Everything fades, and naturally I forget it.

Now, Ji Xu felt that his left body gradually became numb, and even his fingertips became extravagant. Then he opened his eyes wide and tried hard to see the sky again.

Just like when I was a child, Ji Tailin was shaking the fan beside him, and he was counting the stars.

"What a poison, it's a bit fierce."

Ji Xu felt his eyelids getting heavier and he was even weaker, and his breathing seemed to have a leaf falling from the tip of his nose, which was a little itchy. He didn't want to use his hands to take it, but he just wanted to blow it off, but this became a difficult movement like picking stars and getting the moon.

But his eyes were still tenaciously half-open, and inside it seemed to reflect the stars and the moon, scattering the light all over the sky.

...

"He can't hold on for long."

On the trees not far away, two figures stood opposite each other, one black and one white, but it seemed that even the sound was blending into the night.

"I believe he can." The white figure said in a plain tone.

"Haha, you haven't changed after so many years, you're hypocritical and blind."

"The more you say that, the more suspicious you are."

"Suspicion? What do I doubt?"

"You suspect that you have taken the wrong path and are afraid that you will fail."

"Whatever you say, I've heard you say this hundreds of times." The black figure smiled, not caring at all.

"But you still didn't choose to look back."

"The road has been chosen and it's almost over. I just need to stick to it. But he can't hold on."

"I believe he can."

"Ha, you still say that. If you believe him, how could you leave a sword soul here?"

The black figure looked at the figure in front of him and asked sarcastically.
