Monument of Life and Death

   Chapter 1014 Car Accident

   Behind the three of them, a violent roar suddenly came.

   The sound was deafening, almost making Xia Hua and Luo Jiutian scream in shock.

"what happened?"

   The two quickly turned their heads and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

   At the end of the road, two cars appeared out of nowhere. The fronts of the two cars collided heavily, and thick smoke rose from the collided fronts and floated into the air, blending into the night.

   "When is this..." Luo Jiutian turned his head in shock. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the Taoist priest beside him, "Daoist priest, what's wrong with you?"

   Daochang's mouth was slightly open, and the expression on his face was very strange.

   Luo Jiutian had never seen the Taoist priest show such an expression.

   It was an expression between bewilderment and astonishment, with some fear and some childishness...

   If I had to use one word to describe it, maybe it was vulnerability.

  Luo Jiutian's brain "boomed" with an earthquake.

   When Zhou Ye was poisoned, he also had such an expression on his face.

   "Not good!" Luo Jiutian grabbed the Taoist priest's arm, and then stopped Xia Hua who was about to approach the two cars, "Sister Hua, the Taoist priest seems to be poisoned!"

   "What?!" Xia Hua stared at Luo Jiutian and the Taoist priest, then looked at the two cars, "So...is this the Taoist priest's memory?"

   "Maybe yes," Luo Jiutian shouted, "otherwise there is no way to explain these two cars... But when did the Taoist priest get poisoned?"

  Xia Hua calmly thought for a few seconds, and then walked towards the two of them quickly, as if she suddenly thought of something.

   "Jiutian, where is the pit you fell into just now?" Xia Hua asked.

   "Tuken?" Luo Jiutian lowered his head to search, "Probably..."

   "Nine days! Don't move!" Xia Hua suddenly screamed.

  Luo Jiutian was looking down for a hole when he was called by Xia Hua, and he immediately stopped in place.

   "Sister Hua, what's wrong?" Luo Jiutian rolled his eyes in horror, like a child with a wasp swirling beside him, "What happened?"

  Xia Hua carefully squatted behind Luo Jiutian. After a while, Xia Hua covered her nose with one hand and held something with her sleeve with the other, and stood up.

   "You can move now," Xia Hua threw the thing on the ground, pinched her nose and said, "Look."

   Luo Jiutian also imitated Xia Hua's appearance, pinching his nose and bending down, looking at the thing.

It was a green leaf. It was different from the usual leaves. The surface of the leaf had no texture, and the edge of the leaf showed a furry shape. The paper-cut works that came out.

  Luo Jiutian raised his head to look at Xia Hua, "Is this the big leaf mandala?"

   The two of them stared at each other.

   "You ask me who am I to ask?" Xia Hua said, "I guess... this might be its leaves?"

   "It seems that the Taoist priest accidentally touched it when he was helping me, so I was poisoned." Luo Jiutian moved back cautiously, "Hey, strange, then why didn't I get poisoned?"

   "Do you have any important memories that you have forgotten?" Xia Hua asked.

   Luo Jiutian said helplessly, "You said it was forgotten, how could I still remember it?"

   "That must be because your kid is so well protected by your father that he didn't experience any pain," Xia Hua said. "It's not like Zhou Ye and Taoist priest... What about Taoist priest?"

   When the two of them reacted, the Taoist priest was no longer by their side. The two of them looked at the direction of the crash in unison. Sure enough, the Taoist priest was walking there in a lost spirit.

   "Daoist!"

  The two ran after them.

  Luo Jiutian caught up with the Taoist priest in a few steps. He grabbed the Taoist priest's arm and roared loudly beside his ear.

   "Master, wake up! This is all an illusion!"

   "Jiutian, let the Taoist go!" Xia Hua said loudly, "Have you forgotten how Zhou Ye escaped from the illusion?"

"But…"

   "We have to let the Daoist go through all this himself," Xia Hua said solemnly, "and let the Daoist think of it."

  Luo Jiutian looked at the Taoist priest worriedly, but suddenly found that the Taoist priest's lips seemed to be moving slightly.

   is like saying something.

   "Sister Hua, the Taoist priest seems to have something to say." Luo Jiutian hurriedly said.

"What did you say?"

   "I can't hear clearly," Luo Jiutian stared at the Taoist priest's lips, imitating his mouth shape with his own mouth, and said slowly, "No...don't look..."

   "Don't look at it?" Xia Hua asked, "What are you looking at?"

   Luo Jiutian shook his head.

  Don't look... ahead? Don't look at the car accident ahead?

   "Don't look..." The Taoist priest finally said, his voice was hoarse and his lips were dry, "Please, don't look..."

   "Master, are you talking to us?" Luo Jiutian asked, "Let's not see what?"

   Daoist Chief's body began to tremble, he first nodded his head invisibly, then raised his right hand and pointed forward.

   "Sure enough," Xia Hua said, "the Taoist priest doesn't want us to see this memory."

"But…"

   "Don't look, don't look," the Taoist priest suddenly turned his face and looked at Luo Jiutian, "Jiutian, I beg you, don't."

  Luo Jiutian stopped in his tracks with his mouth open.

   The expression on Daochang's face was filled with sadness.

   What kind of memory is this?

   For a long time, Luo Jiutian has presented everything in front of them with an unreserved attitude. Because of this, Luo Jiutian seems to realize now that he does not understand the past of his partners at all.

  Xia Hua is right, she has no painful memories at all.

   But they are not the same.

  Luo Jiutian gritted his teeth and turned his back decisively.

   "Nine days?" Xia Hua asked.

   "Sister Hua, this is the memory of the Taoist priest. Since he doesn't want us to see it, we shouldn't watch it," Luo Jiutian said. "Let's all stop and let the Taoist priest face it."

   Lao Luo looked at his son's face, pursed his lips, and turned his back.

  Xia Hua looked at the car that continued to emit black smoke and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you curious about the past of Taoist priests?"

   "If the Taoist priest wants me to know, of course I need to know, but if the Taoist priest doesn't want me to know, I'm not curious," Luo Jiutian said, "because they are my friends, I respect them and trust them."

  Xia Hua stood on the spot for a long while, showing a smile that didn't look like a smile.

   She turned around silently.

   Just as she turned around, a woman's figure jumped into her peripheral vision.

  Xiahua frowned, but didn't stop.

   She turned her back to the Taoist priest and the indescribable memory, recalling the figure just now.

   should be right…

   In the car, a woman sat upright, ignoring the car accident that was happening around her, watching.
