Chapter 324 The Truth
Last time we talked about Hei Er carrying Li Yi into the cave, so what did they talk about? Let’s read on.
A man and a dog came into the cave, which was pitch dark and extremely cold. Li Yi put his hands together and turned on the backlight to illuminate the cave. There was nothing here except icicles.
Li Yi asked: "You just lock yourself up here?"
"When you and Chang'e are not here, it doesn't matter where I stay."
"Now that I'm here, shouldn't you clean up the place? Otherwise there won't even be a place to sit!"
Hei Er said unhappily: "Yi, you have changed. You were not like this before!"
"Stop talking nonsense and throw away these icicles and icicles. They're annoying to look at."
Hei Er just yelled, and the ice cone on the top of the stone fell to the ground, almost hitting Li Yi. The latter cursed: "You did it on purpose, you damn dog! Believe it or not, I will punish you!"
"You are no longer the first-class martial saint you once were. Stop pretending!"
"Even if I'm not a Martial Saint, I'm more than capable of teaching you a lesson!"
Then the man and the dog started fighting again. As they fought, they knocked down the icicles on the top of the cave, breaking the icicles and causing the broken ice to fall all over the ground. Li Yi grabbed Hei Er's four legs and used him as a shovel to push all the broken ice out of the cave.
But as soon as Li Yi let go, Hei Er threw him back into the cave. Li Yi waved his hand and ten spirit feather arrows flew out, and soon they returned to the cave carrying a tree as thick as a man. Li Yi picked up the tree and swung it at Hei Er, who kept biting off branches. The two of them cooperated well and soon made a doghouse.
After a long quarrel, the man and the dog both lay in the doghouse. Hei Er bit Li Yi's leg, and Li Yi bit Hei Er's ear. Neither of them would let go. The two communicated with each other through telepathy: "Let me go!"
"No! You let go first!"
"Then let's loosen up together!"
"Whoever doesn't loosen up is a dog!"
"Don't bluff me! You're a dog!"
"I've never even seen my mother! I don't even know who my father and I were born to!"
"What a coincidence, I'm the exact opposite of you. I don't know who my father is! Hahahaha!"
Li Yi waved his hand to light the fire, retracted the backlight, and leaned on Hei Er. Hei Er put his head on Li Yi's face, but Li Yi held his tail in his hand and used it as a feather duster to sweep around his body.
Hei Er asked: "Yi, do you blame me?"
"I say it's not strange, do you believe it?"
"Of course I don't believe it! How could you, a person who never gives up, not blame me?"
"Of course I blamed you at first, I even hated you, but you know, later I stopped blaming you. Because I figured it out, I realized that all this was God's plan, right?"
Hei Er remained silent. Li Yi smiled and said, "I was betrayed by my most trusted brother and disciple, and my beloved woman ran away to the moon. Hei Er, what else do I have to lose? What else can I be afraid of?"
Hei Er looked at Li Yi with contempt and said, "Tell me, what do you want to know?"
Li Yi stroked Hei Er's ear and said, "Tell me the truth first. Was it God who made you do that?"
Hei Er pulled his ear out of Li Yi's hand and said unhappily, "You have always been the same. You only want to touch this one ear. The hair is almost gone, and you don't even bother to change it! Aren't you annoying?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "I'm used to it! Don't change the subject, just talk!"
Hei Er sighed and said, "You really want to hear it? Aren't you afraid that the heavens will strike you to death?"
Li Yi smiled and said, "I just said that, what else can I be afraid of!"
Hei Er shook his head and said, "The yin energy on this road leading to the Moon Palace is too heavy. Although I ate nine golden crows, I have been consuming yin energy for so many years, and my body can no longer bear it. Now my foundation is completely destroyed, and I am afraid I will not live long."
Li Yi placed his hand on Hei Er's forehead, closed his eyes, and felt Hei Er's injury. After a moment, he sighed and said, "Thank you for your hard work over the years. I am sorry for causing you trouble."
Hei Er smiled and said, "What's the problem between us brothers? It's meaningless if you say that. I just feel it's not worth it for you!"
Li Yi interrupted Hei Er and said, "If there was no Chang'e, would we have known each other? If there was no her, would I have achieved the first rank? She has been so kind and loving to me. If I don't care about her, who else can I care about? In this world, besides you and her, who else do I have?"
Hei Er snorted coldly and said, "I'm not talking about Heng'e, I'm talking about Emperor Yao! You shouldn't die for that arrogant man!"
Li Yi smiled and said, "Oh, you mean Yao. He is a good leader and also my good brother. He led our human race to completely defeat the demon race. How is your deal with Tiandao related to him?"
Hei Er nodded and said, "He does have some ability. He was able to unite the tribes of the human race to defeat the demon race and make the human race rise completely. But he also became proud and complacent because of this, and he looked down on the way of heaven. Do you think the way of heaven will allow him to try to be respected as the heaven like the Yellow Emperor did?
The Heavenly Dao naturally wants to find a way to get rid of him, but you are by his side, and there are a group of capable people, so the Heavenly Dao has no idea where to start, so it uses the method of dividing the human race and defeating them one by one. Let's not talk about others, let's talk about you. Yi, do you know your weaknesses? "
Li Yi smiled and pointed to the sky, and said with black ears: "Yes, it is Chang'e. The Heavenly Dao originally tricked Emperor Yao's son Danzhu to come to the tribe to find Chang'e, but I never thought that I would run into him. I beat Danzhu away, but the Heavenly Dao found me..."
The truth is that Tiandao was not as powerful as he is now, but he still wanted to find someone to replace the increasingly arrogant Emperor Yao, so Dayi became a problem. Tiandao wanted to trick Danzhu into committing violence against Chang'e, causing Dayi to turn against Emperor Yao, and then use Dayi to get rid of Emperor Yao, but Hei'er disrupted his plan.
If one plan fails, try another. Tiandao finds Hei'er to explain his intentions, but Hei'er doesn't buy it. This shows how little prestige Tiandao had at that time, otherwise the demons would not dare to rebel against Tiandao.
In order to achieve his goal, Tiandao threatened Hei'er with Chang'e to negotiate a deal. Even so, Hei'er did not agree, because Tiandao had no entity and he could not do anything by himself. If he wanted to take action, he would have to attract other people. So Hei'er stayed by Chang'e day and night.
Hei Er and Chang'e had a deep relationship, but it was definitely not a love story between a man and a woman. However, Hei Er's blind protection could not solve the fundamental problem, and he could not stand it for a long time, so he went to Tian Dao to communicate. After some bargaining, Tian Dao moved Hei Er with an attractive condition, which was to let Dayi and Chang'e live forever.
At that time, the laws of heaven and earth were not complete, and many creatures could live forever, such as Hei Er, a descendant of the demon god, but Dayi and Chang'e could not. Even a first-class warrior could not live more than 800 years, and Chang'e could only live 120 years at most. Hei Er naturally wanted to stay with Dayi and Chang'e forever, so he agreed to the request of heaven.
Hei'er originally thought that he had devoured Dayi's soul, and when the matter was settled, he would return the soul to Dayi and everything would be fine. However, he never expected that the Feng Meng incident would happen again. It was not Hei'er who revealed the matter of the elixir to Feng Meng, but Tiandao who passed the message in Hei'er's name!
The Heavenly Dao also attracted monsters to do evil, and tricked Hei Er away from the mountain. Feng Meng not only forced Chang'e to swallow the elixir and ascend alone, but also seriously injured Dayi with a peach wood stick. When Hei Er came back, he found that everything was not going as he expected, and in anger he tore Feng Meng to pieces!
Before Dayi died, he asked Hei'er to bring Chang'e back, because Chang'e had made it clear in her dream that she wanted to escape to a mountain that was out of reach of Feng Meng. However, after escaping to Mount Buzhou, she triggered some teleportation array and came to the Moon Palace. Now she couldn't find the way back. She hoped that Dayi could find a way to rescue her and reunite with him.
Hei Er did not hesitate and immediately set off for Buzhou Mountain, hoping to bring Chang'e back before Dayi died. However, Dayi passed away not long after he left. It is sad to say that the human hero died without even a family member by his side. The person who buried Dayi was a person he hardly knew.
On the other hand, Hei Er discovered the secret of the Babel Tower after arriving at Buzhou Mountain. The so-called Babel Tower is not a real tower, but a ladder to heaven. The Babel Tower was designed and built by Cang Jie at the order of Huangdi, in order to praise his own achievements and to show his respect for the heavens. Therefore, the Heaven sent the Yellow Dragon to take him to heaven.
Back to the Tower of Babel, Cangjie's design was to first carve out a large platform on the highest Wentian Peak of Mount Buzhou, build a fortune formation, and then condense the fortune of the human race into steps, and build a ladder around the huge stone pillar on the top of the peak that spirals up to the sky.
Before the heavens sent down punishment to destroy the Tower of Babel, a section of the ladder had been completed, just reaching the moon. The first sage Cangjie set up a teleportation array there, which could lead directly from Buzhou Mountain to Taiyin Star, and also built a palace on the moon.
It is called a palace, but in fact it is just a big house made of stones. However, it was indeed considered a palace at that time. After all, it was built for Emperor Huangdi, so it was still very exquisite.
However, after the punishment from heaven, Wentian Peak was destroyed, and the Tongtian Tower or the Ladder to Heaven was naturally not spared, but this teleportation array was unexpectedly preserved. When Chang'e escaped here, she accidentally activated the array and came to the Moon Palace, but she could not find the array to go back, so she was trapped on the moon.
Hei Er searched for more than a year in Buzhou Mountain, but only found the teleportation array, but he didn't know how to activate it. After all, it was a magic array set up by humans, so it must be controlled by humans. So he moved the people of Chang'e here to help him study it, and after three years, he finally figured out how to use the teleportation array.
So, Hei Er tried to rescue Chang'e for the first time, but he couldn't get close to the Moon Palace because of the excessive Yin Qi. Hei Er didn't think much about it and directly activated his innate magical power to devour the Yin Qi emitted by the Yin Star.
If it was a Tengu, this might still work, but Hei Er was not a demon god, and he did not have such great power. If he had not eaten nine Golden Crows, he would not have been able to bear it. But even with nine Golden Crows, he could not digest too much Yin Qi at once, which led to the scene of Hei Er standing on the Moon-Watching Cliff on a full-moon night, howling at the full moon and swallowing Yin Qi.
Although the first rescue failed, Hei'er gave Chang'e hope to survive. As mentioned earlier, he used the remaining soul of Dayi in his body to transform himself into Dayi and lied to Chang'e that he was practicing with Niangniang Tai'an and would come to meet her after he had reforged his body.
After stabilizing Chang'e, Hei'er began to study other rescue plans, but no matter what he did, Chang'e could not be saved without clearing the negative energy around the Moon Palace, so the dog stared at the moon for a thousand years. Empress Tai'an was moved by Hei'er's persistence and went to the Moon Palace to set up a magic circle to control the negative energy emitted by Taiyin.
However, the thousand years of swallowing Yin energy also completely destroyed Hei'er's essence. With his second-grade cultivation, he is now just an empty shell. Not to mention others, if the Zoroastrian high priest Lu Sheng really came to attack him, Hei'er would be defeated within ten moves.
It is said that after Hei Er found that the Yin Qi on the moon was controlled, he planned to rescue Chang'e again, but when he arrived at the Moon Palace, he was beaten out by Chang'e. If Chang'e had not been only a third-grade power at the time and could not kill Hei Er, Hei Er would have died that time.
Because Queen Tai'an told Chang'e what she knew. As mentioned before, Queen Tai'an only knew what she had experienced and did not know about the deal between Tiandao and Hei'er, so it was not the whole picture. She told Chang'e that Hei'er was the real murderer who killed Dayi, which led to the fight when they met again.
However, Tai'an Niangniang did not expose Hei'er's lie, saying that Dayi was indeed by her side, referring to the remaining earth soul in the red gourd. Tai'an Niangniang also told Chang'e that although she could not recover to her former state, there was still hope for resurrection, and asked Chang'e to live well and practice well, and maybe there would be a chance to see him again in the future.
Soon after, Houyi appeared, giving Chang'e hope. However, due to the lack of preparation by heaven, the poor integration of Dayi's soul, the chaos of the demon tribe, and the cycle of cause and effect, Houyi was ultimately unable to reunite with Chang'e.
