I will Bury the Gods Chapter 87: : Marriage
This is the third night, and the three people who died were all old people.
Lin Shouxi lifted the white cloth and looked at the faces of the deceased. Their expressions were peaceful, without any sign of pain, as if they were in deep sleep.
"They didn't have any scars on their bodies. Similarly, we didn't detect any evil spirits, so they don't seem to be possessed by evil spirits." Du Qie stood aside and sighed: "If three people hadn't died in a row, I would even think this is the end of my life."
Sanhuamao sat on one side, with a rare serious expression, "Officer Lin Ti, did you find anything?"
Lin Shouxi shook his head.
The deaths of these three people were so unusual that he couldn't see anything weird about them.
Lin Shouxi stood up and looked at the young man named Du Qie beside him. Du Qie was dressed in white clothes similar to Zhong Wushi. He didn't close his eyes for several nights, and the circles around his eye sockets were darkened, and his expressionless face looked more like a living corpse.
"Go ahead and have a look."
Lin Shouxi grabbed the cat back to his shoulder and walked into the fairy village.
There is not much difference between the Immortal Village and the Human Village, except that there are more wooden and bamboo houses with a height of two or three stories.
Looking from a distance, the huge sacred mulberry tree glows silver in the moonlight, and its branches and leaves seem to be covered with silky frost. gas.
"What is the origin of this sacred tree?"
When Lin Shouxi looked at it, his heart twitched again, as if a thorn on a tree had pierced his heart, causing pain deep in the bone marrow.
"I don't know either." Du Qie said, "But according to the elders in the village, this sacred tree grew three hundred years ago, before the Three Realms Village was established, and people called it Rihe, which means Bless the world for the gods."
"Well, if one day the sacred tree also withers, the Three Realms Village will probably disappear too, and we will have to trek the earth again to find a new home." Sanhua Mao also has feelings for the sacred tree, as if a giant tree has fallen into the shade It is where the real palace is located.
Speaking of this, Sanhua Mao also said: "By the way, it will still bloom, but the flowers it blooms are not fragile at all, but like thin silver pieces. The silver coins I rewarded you earlier are just Made from these collected flowers.”
Sanhuamao was talking, when the sight in front of him suddenly widened, it was a square in front of a mansion with a flat ground.
Almost all the cultivators from Fairy Village gathered here. They sat on this square, taking care of each other, trying to get through the long night.
The house in the back is the mansion of Sanhuamao.
Its mansion is not luxurious, it's just an ordinary mansion. There are two stone lions beside the gate of the mansion, and the lanterns hanging from above just illuminate them dignifiedly.
Lin Shouxi saw Zhong Wushi again.
The man from Shenshan Zhanxiesi was also sitting here, looking around nervously, unwilling to let go of any clues.
Destroying evil spirits is the responsibility of the evil division. If there is a big commotion here, even if the thick fog clears in the future, he will probably be punished after returning to the mountain.
Lin Shouxi found a place to sit down. The three-flowered cat stood on his shoulder and looked around vigilantly. Its nose moved slightly, as if it was sniffing the smell of the wind.
One person has died tonight, and it stands to reason that he will not die again, but no one dares to let go of his guard.
"How are you sure it was the shadow?" Lin Shouxi asked Du Qie.
"Who else but him?"
Du Qie said in an affirmative tone: "I used to live in the Devil's Nest, and in a sense I was the shadow's apprentice. I know him very well... This kind of invisible method of killing people, no one can do it except him. "
"Have you ever seen a shadow?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"No." Du Qie said: "The shadow has no real face. It lives in a mirror. It conveys orders to me through this mirror. When I stole the Lord, I broke the mirror and hurt it..."
The person who lives in the mirror...
Lin Shouxi couldn't imagine what kind of life state that was.
"What is the realm of shadow?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"I'm not sure." Du Qie looked serious, "But it is very likely that he is a fairy."
"No, it's not possible." On the other side, Zhong Wushi suddenly turned his head and said firmly, "He must be an immortal. If not an immortal, who can kill people under our noses? Could it be a ghost? ?”
Sanhuamao was already nervous, but hearing the ghost word was even more exciting.
Lin Shouxi couldn't help thinking of the **** of death he met in Longlin Town...
At this moment, their guesses are all powerless, and the horror hangs over the fairy village, even the **** mulberry tree cannot give comfort. The murderer is hiding beside them, but no one knows who he is and who he is about to kill.
After a brief exchange, Xiancun once again fell into dead silence.
The man in gray walked back and forth in the square, waking everyone who was about to fall asleep in time.
Finally, there is a light in the sky, and the long night is coming to an end.
Just when everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Lin Shouxi stood up suddenly, and rushed somewhere like an arrow. He stretched out his hand and stroked an old man who was about to bow his head. He moved very quickly, but when he stretched out his hand, the old man's cervical spine seemed to have lost all its toughness, and slumped limply, his breath and heartbeat disappeared at the same time.
Sudden changes made the drowsy people wake up suddenly, and restless commotion broke out again.
Du Qie and Zhong Wushi also came immediately, they looked at the dead old man, also puzzled.
"What, what's going on? Didn't you say that only one person died in one night?" The three-flowered cat also jumped out of the crowd, and precisely pawed Lin Shouxi's back.
Lin Shouxi didn't speak. He knew that the old man probably died because of him.
——Shadow wants to kill someone in front of him.
The sun was shining, and after a short period of panic, most people were still secretly rejoicing for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.
The crowd dispersed, and Lin Shouxi brought the cat into the mansion, along with Du Qie.
Lin Shouxi told him roughly what happened in Longlin Town, and Du Qie frowned. After denouncing Demon Nest's dishonesty, he promised to immediately mobilize manpower to take back Longlin Town.
"Have you met the Holy Son?" Du Qie asked.
"I met you!" Sanhuamao immediately said, "She is a ruthless little girl, very bad, she almost killed us all."
"Even Mr. Lin is not her opponent?" Du Qie asked worriedly.
"We couldn't tell the winner." Lin Shouxi said.
"A shadow is difficult enough, and now there is another son..."
Du Qie shook his head lightly, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "But no matter what, Longlin Town must be taken back! The heart of the two-headed python will be delivered soon. If this thing falls into the hands of Demon Nest, The Lord will never be able to possess a divine body."
The three-flowered cat nodded vigorously.
In the past, it didn't care about the **** body. After all, being a cat is also very happy. But today, after witnessing the innocent death of the old man in Xiancun, a sense of powerlessness welled up in his limbs. It wants to become stronger and protect its son. civil!
Du Qie told Lin Shouxi some more about the Devil's Nest, and then left.
The mansion was empty, and in a blink of an eye there was only one person and one cat left.
"Detective Lin, do you have any ideas?" Sanhuamao asked seriously.
"No." Lin Shouxi answered directly.
"The grandfather died in front of you just now, you... really didn't see anything?" Sanhuamao asked suspiciously.
"No." Lin Shouxi replied again.
"Then do you have anyone to suspect?"
"Yes."
"Who is it?" Sanhuamao became energetic again.
"Zhong Wushi and Du Qie." He said.
"Why?"
"Because I only know them."
"..." Sanhuamao closed its pointed ears, "Now is not the time to joke around."
Lin Shouxi was not joking, it was his intuition, and there was no evidence for it, but fortunately, he had a way to verify it. Valley
He was very sleepy, but he did not rest, but waited for Xiaoyu before the sword.
"Good morning, Master."
Xiaoyu came early in the morning.
In the past two days, Xiaoyu has not been lazy at all. She changed into her martial arts training clothes, **** her clothes, **** her ponytail, and prepared her wooden sword. , the cheeks are so tender and cute.
"Good morning."
Lin Shouxi smiled.
"Master looks very tired, maybe he hasn't slept yet?" Xiaoyu asked worriedly.
"Well, I'm waiting for Xiaoyu." Lin Shouxi said.
Xiaoyu was overwhelmed by the flattery, she blinked her watery eyes, looked at the sword in front of her, and murmured: "Master is so kind...Xiaoyu has the best master in the world."
Lin Shouxi was rather embarrassed. After hesitating, he said, "Actually... I want to ask Xiaoyu for a favor in advance."
"Hey, what's the matter?" After all, Xiaoyu is only seven years old, her strength is limited, and she is afraid that she will not be able to do it.
"I want to ask Xiaoyu to help Master find out about a person." Lin Shouxi said: "That person's name is Zhong Wushi, the clock of the ancient clock, Wushi of Wushi, He is the person who guards the mountain and kills evil divisions. Just ask me if there is such a person in Zhanxie Division."
"Zhan Xiesi?" Xiaoyu was slightly startled.
Lin Shouxi originally thought that this task was too difficult for a seven-year-old girl, but Xiaoyu immediately nodded after a short shock, and agreed immediately: "Don't worry, Master, just leave it to me."
"Is it really okay?" Lin Shouxi was not at ease.
"My mother is an important person in Zhanxie Division. If it's just a list, I can do something." Xiaoyu said vowedly.
"Then... it's time for a small talk." Lin Shouxi didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and immediately felt a little more relaxed.
Xiaoyu was also very happy to be able to help the master, she didn't think it was the master who sent her, after all the master beat up bad people outside the sacred mountain, and it was only natural for the apprentice to help inside.
After a short but smooth exchange, Lin Shouxi began to instruct Xiaoyu to practice sword.
I don't know if it was because of watching the battle last night, Xiaoyu's swordsmanship has improved rapidly, and it is far different from the girl who held a sword softly three days ago. She was wearing a small snow-white sword dress, her young feet were bare, her steps were precise, her eyes followed the sword, and her movements became more and more smooth. Several rounds of moves were like a picture, and it was getting harder to pick out flaws.
Light came in from outside the sword building, and the shadow cast by the flower window flowed on her canvas-like clothes, with clear light and shade.
Lin Shouxi watched this scene quietly.
Although Xiaoyu's movements are not perfect, they are still pleasing to the eye. Even some mistakes in her movements are clumsy and cute, which makes people unbearable to criticize. Lin Shouxi can't help but think about her appearance when she grows up.
Of course, it doesn't make sense to think like this, she is only seven years old, even if it is nine years after their engagement, maybe I will have such a lovely girl by then.
Thinking about this, he couldn't help thinking of Xiaohe again, and wondered if Xiaohe would like this little apprentice... Well, although Xiaohe's heart has never been very broad, it should not be so big that even a little girl Eat all the vinegar.
Lin Shouxi watched Xiaoyu dance the sword, thinking about messy things during the brief relaxation.
After practicing a set of sword moves, Xiaoyu stood upright in front of the sword, and said a little ashamedly: "There are a few more wrong postures... I obviously recited it seriously, but... well, I'm still too stupid."
"Xiaoyu is already very powerful." Lin Shouxi said sincerely.
Xiaoyu didn't listen, her self-demand was getting higher and higher, she turned her back, and wanted to punish herself, Lin Shouxi stopped him quickly and said, "Xiaoyu, if you insist on the precision of swordsmanship, it will be easy to slip If you are in a dead end, these mistakes are now your room for retraction, which may not be a bad thing.”
"Really..." Xiaoyu turned around, her eyes gradually brightened.
"Master never lies." Lin Shouxi said.
"Master is so kind!" Xiaoyu was even more moved. She opened her arms and embraced the sword, as if she was hugging Master.
"By the way, when Xiaoyu cultivates his sword, don't forget to cultivate his heart. The Taoist heart is the divine wall of the ascetic, and it is the guarantee to protect you from many disasters." Lin Shouxi said earnestly.
"Understood, I will cultivate my heart well, and I will resolutely not be a bad woman like the Holy Son!" Xiaoyu has always had an overnight feud. When he grows up, he bullies the bad son to avenge his master.
"Well, I believe in Xiaoyu."
Looking at Xiaoyu's radiant look, Lin Shouxi nodded with a smile.
Hearing the master's gentle and pleasant voice, Xiaoyu's heart trembled. She was also a little embarrassed, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said, "Of course, the main reason is that my master must be much better than the bad son's master."
"Uh... is that so?" Lin Shouxi didn't have much confidence.
Master Mu Shijing is not listed on Yun Dian Ranking, but it is almost acquiesced in the martial arts that she is the real number one in the world. The magic door was destroyed in an understatement...
"Of course." Xiaoyu was swearing, she wrinkled her pretty face, and said: "Obviously an orthodox master of the Taoist sect, but he taught such disciples who rebelled against the demon sect, um... Shangliang If it's not straight, it's either her master is blind, or she's also scheming, an outsider and an inside devil!"
Xiaoyu has been angry all night, and now he has opened up the chatterbox, and he is even more eloquent when he speaks bad things:
"And generally speaking, a bad master is far more detestable than a bad apprentice! If such a master becomes the head of a Taoist sect, wouldn't that sect be turned into a devil's den? How many mistakes will be made... This, How can this work!"
As Xiaoyu was talking, he vaguely remembered something, and asked again:
"By the way, Master, do you... know that Holy Son?"
"Yeah."
"Then... what is the relationship between you?"
"Nothing."
Lin Shouxi has nothing to hide about this little girl who is far away in Shenshan. On the contrary, he is more willing to reveal the truth to this innocent girl, "Don't think about it, she and I are old enemies."
"Old enemy?" Xiaoyu was slightly taken aback, and understood the literal meaning: "Is it an enemy who lives together?"
"It is the destined enemy."
Lin Shouxi smiled helplessly, and said: "I had a life-and-death battle with her, and we both ended up living here, and my brothers and sisters... They were all captured by her master, and their life and death are still uncertain."
"Ah..."
Xiaoyu was stunned, although she guessed that Master's life experience would be a bit tragic, she never thought that it would be such a tragedy that almost wiped out the family: "They...they are such hateful people, they have no conscience~IndoMTL. com~ God can't tolerate it! Such a person should be struck by lightning from the sky, and the earth will be destroyed!"
When Xiaoyu heard about such evil deeds, she was so angry that she used the vocabulary she had learned all her life to verbally criticize her. Now she is like a fire dragon in her pajamas, she can spit out hot flames when she opens her mouth.
She raised her face seriously and said, "Master, tell me where your brothers and sisters are being held. I will immediately ask my parents to rescue them!"
"No need, that place is too far."
"Far away? Is it outside the sacred mountain?"
"Yes."
"But the sky has a limit, and the sea has a horn, no matter how far away you are, you can always reach it. Master believes in me... Although Xiaoyu is young, my parents are really powerful." Xiaoyu said to his parents Confidence goes far beyond myself.
"I believe in Xiaoyu." Lin Shouxi said gently, "But that place is too far away... Xiaoyu probably won't be able to go there in his lifetime."
"Where is it..." Xiaoyu was in a hurry.
"When Xiaoyu grows up, I'll tell you." Lin Shouxi said.
"Okay, then we will go and eliminate the bad Son and her master together." Xiaoyu compromised and raised her palms.
The two masters and apprentices clapped their hands in the air and made an agreement.
After the sword practice in the morning, Xiaoyu hurriedly went to help his master with some errands to investigate the man named Zhong Wushi. Lin Shouxi fell asleep for a while, and then walked into the depths of the mansion after he regained his composure.
Passing through the front hall, Lin Shouxi saw a majestic plaque with the words "Three Flowers of Heavenly Girl" written on it.
In the house, Sanhua Mao was flipping through a book with a rare and serious expression.
When Lin Shouxi walked in, it closed the book and stared at Lin Shouxi intently.
"What... what's wrong?" Lin Shouxi was confused.
"I have something to ask you."
Sanhuamao said earnestly: "Why don't you go and make a kiss with the holy son of the devil's nest."
