I will Bury the Gods Chapter 83: : Death is coming
Xiaoyu knelt in front of the sword softly, the hair on both sides stuck to her cheeks full of tears, her red eyes were filled with mist, and the sleeves of the sword robe were stained with wet marks from wiping , her shiny lips moved, and immediately after uttering the word "Master", they immediately tightened, extremely nervous, as if she had done something presumptuous.
Lin Shouxi leaned on the old chair, looked at the lovely and pitiful little girl, but did not respond.
Xiaoyu was even more aggrieved, she kept saying 'Xiaoyu is wrong', tears fell down, her nose wrinkled and wrinkled, looking very sour, when she broke down a little, Lin Shouxi finally Finally speak:
"Xiaoyu, do you really want to win?"
"Thinking about it..." Xiaoyu muttered.
"Then are you willing to work hard?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Well... yes, yes." Xiao Yu had just been caught cheating, and her words became more and more emboldened.
"Are you willing or not?" Lin Shouxi said coldly.
"Yes!" Xiaoyu straightened his back, like a frightened deer.
Lin Shouxi looked at the girl with her small breasts, thought for a moment, and felt that she was so lazy. Apart from being pampered since she was a child, she lacked motivation at all.
"Xiaoyu, you practice sword hard to win, so why do you win?" Lin Shouxi asked seriously.
Xiaoyu was a little confused, she blinked her eyes, subconsciously bit her finger, thought for a while, and then tentatively said: "In order to...not to be ashamed?"
"What else?"
"Besides this..." Xiaoyu bit her finger and thought for a while, then asked, "Is there anything else besides this?"
Lin Shouxi was speechless for a while, he soon understood that she lived in a very good environment, never encountered any danger, and lived freely and happily every day, so it seemed like a big thing to lose face.
Xiaoyu seemed to understand Lin Shouxi's thoughts, she said: "Although the outside world is dangerous, it's not something we need to worry about."
"Why?"
"Because we have a **** wall, which can keep out all dangers... We have come here peacefully like this for generations." Xiaoyu said softly, with admiration in his words, It seems that the high wall is the emperor they obey.
"What if the wall collapses?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"The wall... how could the wall collapse?" Xiaoyu couldn't understand.
Her home is not far from the city wall, so she has been to the city wall more than once, and has admired the miracle that stretches thousands of miles and towers like a mountain. She knows that the wall is so strong that even a sharp awl cannot penetrate any stone bricks. What kind of mighty force can shake it in the gap between the two... Xiaoyu can't imagine.
Lin Shouxi didn't want to talk too much with her, he just said: "Xiaoyu, you need a longer-term goal."
"Yeah!"
Xiaoyu also thinks what he said makes sense, "But what is the goal..."
"Ask yourself, what do you need and want most." Lin Shouxi guided her to think.
"Well, let me think about it..."
While wiping her cheeks with her sleeve, Xiaoyu was thinking hard. She has no worries about food and clothing, and her living conditions are good. She has nothing to want. Let's make a promise!"
"Agreement?"
"Yes! Promise!" Xiaoyu asked, "Brother is outside the mountain now, right?"
"Yeah."
"Then you will come to Shenshan in the future, right?"
"Maybe."
"So, next time we meet, let's have a competition. If I can win, then brother must unconditionally agree to my request. If brother wins, then I will..."
The four-word 'whatever you want' stuck in her throat before she could say it, Lin Shouxi took the lead and interrupted her words coldly:
"Then you and I will sever the master-student relationship, and I will never see you again."
Xiaoyu was stunned on the spot, she realized belatedly that she had dug a big hole for herself.
Lin Shouxi didn't intend to scare her with cruelty, he just felt that thunderous means must be used to deal with such a lazy little girl. He didn't give Xiaoyu time to justify and make amends, so he immediately said:
"The agreement has been made, I will come to you in the future."
"I..." When Xiaoyu came back to his senses, it was already too late, so he could only nod weakly, "Then, then you have to come later, if you come too early, Xiaoyu has to surrender..."
Lin Shouxi didn't nod or shake his head, he just said: "You win the competition five days later, otherwise everything will be empty talk."
"Well, I see."
After a short period of depression, Xiaoyu summoned her strength and courage again. She wiped away her tears and regained her strength, "Then I...can I call you Master?"
"Up to you." Lin Shouxi said lightly.
Xiaoyu showed a look of joy, she bent down, and lightly touched the paper used for cheating with her injured forehead: "Disciple Xiaoyu pays homage to Master!"
"Yeah."
Lin Shouxi nodded. Although he had a cold face, he couldn't help but feel unbearable when he saw the cute appearance of the little girl Lihua with rain. If you dare to commit the crime again, you will be your teacher..."
"I really know I was wrong."
Before he finished speaking, Xiaoyu immediately put her hands together to show that she knew her mistakes and could correct them. She bit her bright lips, not daring to look directly at the sword in front of her, and shyly said: "If I dare to make mistakes again, Me, I will beat myself for Master."
This... what is this?
Lin Shouxi was also taken aback, but he was quite satisfied with Xiaoyu's enthusiastic appearance at the moment, and he was not sure whether he would accept disciples in the future, but at least this was the first one, since it was the first disciple, That should be taken seriously.
"Okay, let's start." Lin Shouxi said.
"Hey, now, now?" Xiaoyu was a little surprised.
"You still want to be lazy?"
"No, I don't want to."
Xiaoyu immediately lay down on the ground, her body stretched tight, her slender legs covered her face with one hand, and the wooden sword used for sword practice in the other. Buttocks, leaving long and narrow folds on the soft sword suit.
"You... what are you doing?" Lin Shouxi asked in astonishment.
"Hey, I'm punishing myself... Didn't Master tell me to start?" Xiaoyu also asked in surprise.
"..." Lin Shouxi took a deep breath, "I want you to start practicing swords as a teacher."
"Ah... oh, master, please explain clearly."
Xiaoyu's cheeks were even more blushing, she stood up like lightning, messily sorted out the cheating papers in front of her, read them roughly, and began to practice swords.
While watching, Lin Shouxi patiently explained to her, explaining the power point of the moves and the way to win.
Xiaoyu listened carefully like never before, and it was the first time she knew that there were so many tricks in the seemingly simple chopping and picking. Although these tricks were not fancy, they all revealed the sharpness of a sword. The experience gained by the predecessors in exchange for life and death, you can see the dripping blood in every gesture.
Xiaoyu listened quietly, immersed in it.
Gradually, she felt that the originally blunt moves came alive in her mind. They were like invisible trickles, injected into the blood through her thoughts, and then flowed through her body with the blood as a medium.
After she really put her heart and soul into it, it only took half an hour for half a set of swordsmanship to go from unfamiliarity to familiarity.
Besides being amazed by her talent, Lin Shouxi also realized how much this girl wasted her talent before.
While practicing the sword, there was a knock on the door, Xiaoyu was startled, she even forgot to cut off the connection of the sword and went to open the door.
"Xiaoyu, why are you here again? Is your illness cured, so you just run around."
It was a woman's voice, and the gentle words contained a sense of reproach... It seemed to be Xiaoyu's mother.
"Well...Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu is here to train her body." Xiaoyu said in a hurry.
"Physical training?" The woman was confused.
"Yes, here is full of sword intent, and it is the most suitable for body training. Staying here, I feel that my illness has improved a lot." Xiaoyu smiled.
"Really? Let mother see it too." The woman said softly.
"Hey! Don't come in." Xiaoyu opened his arms to stop him.
How could her young body stop her, the woman directly picked her up and entered the house together.
"In the past, you were imprisoned in this small sword tower, and you were unwilling in every possible way, but now you are not imprisoned, and you came by yourself... The servants at home were so anxious that they searched all the trees in the yard, I didn't find you, so I was so scared to report to me." The woman smiled and shook her head, pinching Xiaoyu's cheek.
"Why are you looking for a tree? I haven't climbed a tree for a long time..." Xiaoyu is really reluctant to admit that one of her childhood hobbies was tree climbing.
Recently she has climbed less, not because of anything else, but because every time she can go up, she can't get down. Although it is quiet and pleasant to watch the scenery from the tree, it is shameful every time she calls for help.
The woman was still looking at the sword building. She looked around and finally settled on the paper manuscript in front of a certain ancient sword.
She put down Xiaoyu, picked up the manuscript paper and flipped through it, realizing in her heart that this little girl hid in the small building to practice swords. Is my face gone... But it's good, I finally know how to work hard.
"I'm not practicing swords, I'm just drawing for fun!" Seeing his mother's smiling face, Xiaoyu quibbled.
"Well, the painting is not bad, Xiaoyu has become more powerful." Niangqin said with a smile.
"That is." Xiaoyu put her hands on her hips, very proud.
She was arranging the sketches casually, and she didn't know what to notice, and her eyes suddenly fell on the ancient sword in front of her.
She stared at the ancient sword.
The connection between Lin Shouxi and the sword has not yet been severed. Across the void, he and Xiaoyu's mother's eyes met. There are many colors in it, and sometimes there is only a little paint left.
Even if she didn't see him, even if they were far apart, Lin Shouxi still felt suffocated for a moment, and three words flashed in his mind inexplicably - the realm of human beings.
Before the woman touched the ancient sword with her hand and probed the net of knowledge, he cut off his consciousness in time, and let Zhan Gong flicker without responding.
Xiaoyu was also extremely nervous. She stood behind her mother for fear that this big secret would be discovered.
Finally, the woman let go of her hand, her expression returned to tranquility, and Xiao Yu also secretly heaved a sigh of relief, praising Master for his cleverness in his heart.
"Mother, from now on I will be doing body training here, okay?" Xiaoyu asked.
"Well, the whole family is yours. It's better for you to come here than to climb a tree." Seeing her daughter working so hard, she would never refuse.
"Thank you mother." Xiaoyu stretched out her hand to hug her.
The woman hugged her.
Xiaoyu recalled Master's question before, and felt worried, so he hurriedly asked his mother: "By the way, mother, will our divine wall...will collapse?"
"Of course not." The woman said softly: "The **** wall has been blessed by the emperor, and it has stood for a thousand years without falling down. How could it collapse?"
"What if it collapses?" Xiaoyu worried about the wall.
"If it collapses, there will still be gods guarding the mountain, and gods will guard the mountain." The woman comforted.
Xiaoyu felt relieved.
My mother was even more delighted to see that her daughter was worried about the country and the people, and asked dotingly: "What would Xiaoyu want to eat tonight, mother is free today, so I will make it for you myself."
"Okay." Xiaoyu agreed, tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "I want carrot soup!"
"Then... Xiaoyu will go dig the radishes, and mother will cook the soup." The woman smiled and assigned the work.
"Okay! I'm good at digging radishes!" Xiaoyu was in high spirits.
…
Lin Shouxi rubbed his temples, calming his mind. The gray haze among the steep mountains has not dissipated, and the faint sound of water can be heard below.
Longlin Town is composed of several big mountains. There is water under the deep stream. The water comes from the muddy river surrounding the Three Realms Mountains. It is not drinkable and can only support some special fishes.
Lin Shouxi listened to the sound of water for a while, and when he turned his head, he saw that the Sanhuamao was still thinking, and seemed to be writing quickly.
Out of love for the paper, Lin Shouxi patted it on the head and interrupted it.
Sanhuamao hated being disturbed when he was creating, so he jumped on him angrily, and waved his cat's claws again and again. Although it failed to cause any harm, it also eloquently proved that he was not easy to mess with!
Lin Shouxi took the cat and left the small and dark room.
"By the way, have you asked them to build ships these days?" Sanhuamao asked.
"Yes." Lin Shouxi did not deny it.
"What are you building a ship for?" Sanhuamao asked suspiciously, "Could it be that you want to bypass the Zhuojiang River?"
"Is it not possible?" Lin Shouxi asked back.
He couldn't find a solution to the heavy fog that closed the mountain, but he believed that no matter how long the fog was, there would always be an end. He couldn't just spend his days here, he had to try a way to leave.
"How would I know..." Sanhuamao didn't seem very happy, "I only know that the water flows upstream, and there is a cruel **** living in the water."
"Cruel god?" Lin Shouxi shook his head lightly, thinking it was a three-flowered cat bluffing himself.
Seeing Lin Shouxi's attitude, Sanhuamao showed a fierce face again, "I kindly reminded you, and there has been a saying that dragon scales suppress evil water since ancient times, so don't take it seriously!"
"Then tell me, what kind of evil spirits are there?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Do you know how many great magic arts in the world?" Sanhuamao asked again.
"The art of transforming gods?"
"Hmph, I know you don't know!"
Sanhuamao also noticed that although the black-clothed boy in front of him is powerful, he lacks knowledge in cultivation. It sat on Lin Shouxi's shoulder and said coquettishly: "There are many techniques of transforming spirits, such as swallowing and drinking." Divine marrow, if you are lucky enough to refine it, you can obtain the godhead. It is also like refining a divine weapon into your body. The cheapest and most affordable method of transforming gods..."
Sanhuamao paused, and spit out two words in a gloomy tone: "Suicide."
"Suicide?" Lin Shouxi asked: "Is there any way inside?"
"Of course." Sanhua Mao said: "The first thing you need to do before committing suicide is to forget yourself! You must forget to speak, forget to walk, forget everything, even your own existence, and only remember one thing—death."
"Next, you can carefully choose your favorite way of death... falling, drowning, strangulation, self-immolation, suffocation, beheading... In short, you can commit suicide in any way you can imagine. , it is possible to obtain the godhead and become the corresponding god. Of course, there can only be one quota for each method of death, and the early death and early conferment of gods, these gods have a unified name-the **** of death."
This is a staggeringly absurd thing. If Sanhuamao's tone was not very serious, Lin Shouxi would only think that this is a fantasy and would not believe it.
The **** of death... Lin Shouxi couldn't help but think of the Fengdu underworld in the legends of the old world where thousands of ghosts gather to gather evil spirits, and he doesn't know if such a place really exists in this world.
"Is there any benefit to being such a god?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Of course." Sanhuamao said: "It can be strong and long-lived... In short, for ordinary people who are doing nothing, it is almost a step to the sky. According to legend, if someone sees the **** of death, it won't be long. , will die for its corresponding deity.”
"So there is a **** of death hidden in this turbid river?" Lin Shouxi stared at the rushing river covered by the haze, and asked quietly.
"That's right, it is said that this turbid river is the residence of the God of Drowning."
Sanhuamao said in a whisper: "This deity is not alarmist. If you don't believe me, you can go back to the Three Realms Village and ask. There are many people who have witnessed the God of Drowning. They drowned without exception after returning home." Well, there are those who drowned in the bath, those who drowned in drinking water, and even those who were in Mao... Forget it, it’s scary anyway, if you don’t think about yourself, you should also think about your fiancée.”
"Are you reluctant for me to leave?" Lin Shouxi asked with a smile.
"Of course!" Sanhuamao is very straightforward~IndoMTL.com~It patted Lin Shouxi on the shoulder, "The devil's nest is not yet settled, the world is not settled, as the prime minister, you will die as a prime minister, and you will die as a grass, how can that be?" Abandon the armed forces and leave easily?"
Lin Shouxi didn't speak, but just stared at the water surface, his face was serious, always giving Sanhuamao a feeling that he was about to drop his burden and run away at any time.
"Hey, you are talking." Sanhuamao pushed him.
"Will there be any signs before the **** of drowning appears?" Lin Shouxi asked mysteriously.
"Sign..." Sanhuamao thought for a while and said, "It is said that there will be a reverse vortex on the surface of the water. , At this time, you should cover your eyes, otherwise the **** of death will emerge from the water later and stare at you."
Lin Shouxi stared at the blurred water below, frowning.
"What's the matter? Why are you in a daze? Could it be that you were frightened?" Sanhuamao patted his head.
Lin Shouxi suddenly raised his hand to cover Sanhuamao's eyes.
