I will Bury the Gods Chapter 145: : Jail
Luo Chu'e turned around with her fingers, and the white-clothed fairy who had been slightly lifted landed on her heels. She snorted softly, and she didn't feel much discomfort in her body, but she felt a little warmth when her hand touched the red mark between her brows.
Lin Shouxi's bet was just to delay time, but he never expected that Luo Chu'e would make such a decision.
"No!" Lin Shouxi said immediately.
He has been good at counting since he was a child. When other children were still counting with their fingers, he had already mastered the method of using the abacus.
Thirty days... Lin Shouxi knows without careful calculation that as long as Chu Yingchan has a little desire, no matter how small the desire is, it will expand into an unimaginable behemoth after thirty days.
No... In less than thirty days, or even half a month, Chu Yingchan will be swallowed up by the fissile desire in this red seal, and lose all reason!
As long as the expansion of desire cannot be stopped, this is a bet that cannot be won. If Chu Yingchan insists on insisting, it is very likely that she will end up completely destroyed.
"It's never up to you."
Luo Chu'e walked towards the throne with a smile, her black hair fluttering with a ghostly breath, and her long skirt curled around the ground in dragons and phoenixes. To bet is nothing more than the kindness of this seat, remember, you are outsiders who do not belong here, and I don’t need to follow any rules when treating you.”
Luo Chu'e sat back on the throne, with her legs crossed, and the depraved goddess looked down at them, and said indifferently: "Don't look at me with such eyes, revenge is not a virtue... hey, okay Now, the bet has begun, and if she dies because of her weak will, it is also your responsibility, after all, this agreement was proposed by you."
Looking at the pair of master and apprentice, Luo Chu'e giggled as if remembering something extremely happy. shell.
"This seal is formed by the Dao Law of the Immortal Kingdom. Only I can lay it down, and only I can undo it. You can surrender to me at any time and beg for mercy. The key to surrender is on you, let it be stained with forbidden blood ...Of course, whether to forgive you or not depends on my mood that day." Luo Chu'e was too lazy to say anything, she flicked her sleeves, and gently covered her thighs.
She was talking on her own, as if a little girl had thought of a wonderful inspiration and couldn't wait to share it with others. She didn't need to listen to anyone's opinion. She was the queen here, and she could pile up whatever she wanted pile of sand.
"Okay, in the next month, you will be under house arrest. You don't need to worry too much about food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. Show me your master-apprentice drama in return."
Luo Chu'e tapped her fingertips.
The ring on the ring finger is inlaid with a little golden fire, and the flame emits bright light according to her thoughts, and the space is affected by the light, shaking out layers of ripples.
After Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan disappeared, the pride and coquettishness on Luo Chu'e's face were also washed away by the cold firelight of the palace, and she became indifferent and blurred. Ancient characters, ancient characters seemed to be hesitant to be attracted by bait, and they flew around her fingertips like clusters of butterflies.
"Did I smell it wrong? Why did I perceive... the smell of other women?" Luo Chu'e frivolously played with the ancient characters, frowned, and said to herself.
…
The Immortal City is surrounded by a whole circle of black walls, with Luo Chu'e's palace as the boundary. In front of it is the residence of the soul, and behind it is the Jedi of Purgatory that I saw earlier. Except for the palace, it is very difficult to get here Seeing normal buildings, the house where Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan were placed under house arrest was the same.
Its structure is similar to that of a waterwheel, but much larger than ordinary waterwheels. It rotates slowly and at a constant speed, and it takes exactly twelve hours to complete one round. This world is isolated from the world, and there is no sun, moon, and stars, but time is unified with the outside world.
The interior space of this huge waterwheel building is spacious, and it is a place for people to live in. The residence is cut into twelve pieces, which are adjacent to each other, and eleven of them are used to detain serious criminals.
Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan were locked in the only vacant room.
This waterwheel cell is located in the middle of a ring of high-rise buildings. At its door stands a very dull-looking man. There is a thin line in his head, and a bell is tied to the thin line. He is like a butler. Once someone walked by the door, his mind would startle, and the bell tied inside would make a sound.
The housekeeper didn't move at all. There was a red circle under his feet, which is the evidence of the ground binding. There are hundreds of circles like this, and they are changing directions all the time. If you enter, you will be bound. In addition, there is a guard standing on the surrounding ring-shaped black building. He is holding a knife in his arms. This is not so much a knife as it is a knife style, which has been practiced to the extreme! There are nine more people like him, they are lurking in the dark, staring at the waterwheel building, while many kite-like birds are flying in the sky above them.
Everything outside the waterwheel prison was locked up, no one could get out, and no one could enter.
This is Luo Chu'e's house arrest for them.
Lin Shouxi watched all of this from the window, every corner he looked at seemed to be stared at to death, leaving no gaps, and Chu Yingchan was sitting opposite him.
The fairy in white was sitting quietly, with the black ruler lying across the table, and her hands neatly placed on her lap. She also looked out the window, silently.
The bet has already begun, and the gears of time keep turning, and there is not much left for them.
"Are you okay?" Lin Shouxi looked back from the window.
"I don't feel anything yet." Chu Yingchan said, rubbing the center of her brows with her fingers.
Except for an extra brow mark, this fairy is no different from usual, she is as cold as ice, as peaceful as an autumn lake, just like a born fairy. It's just that this peaceful and flawless temperament is just a whitewash for peace, and they all know in their hearts that within a few days, she will be captured by the red seal.
The growth of that kind of fear is extremely terrifying just by showing it in numbers, and it is definitely not something that human spiritual will can overcome.
"Do you have any ideas?" Chu Yingchan asked.
"Well, there are only a few ways..." Lin Shouxi began to analyze with her one by one:
"Desires are multiplied. If you don't have any desires for children, then doubling is meaningless."
"This is impossible." Chu Yingchan shook her head.
As long as you are a person, you must have desires. This desire has nothing to do with depth. After thirty days, it will become meaningless and huge.
"Doesn't the Taoist sect have a spell of pure heart and tranquility that can completely suppress desire temporarily?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Yes, but Taoism does not cultivate the ruthless way of heart and soul. The so-called pure heart and mind are like meditation. It just makes people forget other things temporarily, and it will not change anything." Chu Yingchan explained .
"What about breaking the curse?" Lin Shouxi continued to ask: "The seal of Slaanesh is a curse seal, is there a way to break it?"
After the red seal was planted between the eyebrows, Chu Yingchan was looking for a way to break it. At this time when Lin Shouxi asked, she just shook her head slightly and said, "I tried to untie it, but it seems like A group of tightly entangled wires, I can't find the end and the end of the rope, I can't find the solution, I can't even shake it."
"Is it like God's Order?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Hmm..." Chu Yingchan pondered for a while, but nodded.
She also tried countless times to unlock the God's Order in her body, but it was like twisting the lock with a grass stalk, and it was futile in front of the impregnable seal.
The two looked at each other, and they both had the same thought - fighting poison with fire.
The Order of God's Attendance is a divine seal created by the Guardian God, and the Curse of Slaanesh is a divine spell created by Luo Chu'e. They appeared on Chu Yingchan's body at the same time. I don't know who has more control over her body one chip.
The two tried it out.
Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan soon discovered that what the Divine Attendant Order can control is mainly Chu Yingchan's body. It can make her body bow down, but it can't make her willing. It's an attack on the mind.
They seem to be as good as they are.
Before the bet with Luo Chu'e, Lin Shouxi expected that she would have unexpected problems, but the order of God's service is the biggest secret and trump card between him and Chu Yingchan. If it loses its effect, it will undoubtedly be a heavy burden for them blow.
"Don't be disappointed, at least before your consciousness is swallowed up, I can use God's Order to make you fall into a real coma. A heart without consciousness is a real iron wall, and even Slaanesh may not be able to break into it. "Lin Shouxi's thoughts were spinning, thinking of countermeasures.
This method may be effective, but even if it is effective, it is only a temporary thirst quencher. Once Chu Yingchan regains consciousness a little, she will still be backlashed by the spell.
As long as Luo Chu'e's statement is correct, this kind of spell is a demon that eats people without spitting out bones. Compared with it, swallowing the pill refined by Lin Shouxi is like nourishing one's health.
"Well, if it's time to retreat, it's up to you to decide." Chu Yingchan said.
Listening to her firm and gentle words, Lin Shouxi felt a little uncomfortable. He said, "It's all my fault. If I didn't want to make extra troubles in the showgirl's theater, we would have strayed into this place."
"Why bother to say this... As you said, we are just the pawns of the people behind the scenes. Just like in the Wu family, no matter what happens in the middle, we will end up in the realm of the gods. This is not We can change it." Chu Yingchan comforted softly.
"Can God really determine a certain future?" Lin Shouxi asked.
In his cognition, the future should be an inevitable and uncertain surface, rather than a specific point.
"I don't know, but... the head teacher of Yunkong Mountain is trying this." Chu Yingchan said.
"How to try?"
"The head teacher imagined a self—a self that is so strong that it is invincible, and that it is perfect that it cannot be matched. It is a story of becoming stronger, but a definite future constantly emerging into his body. The first one has ruled out all interference, retreated into Qingliang Mansion, and has not eaten, drank or slept for thirty years, but it is said that during this period, his state has been constant. A rising tide lifts all boats... that is to say, he is arriving at the future that he has determined and imagined." Chu Yingchan talked about a big secret of Yunkong Mountain.
"It's really amazing." Lin Shouxi was startled, and he came back to his senses after a while.
Hearing this story for the first time, Lin Shouxi felt miraculous, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt chills down his spine. If the future can really be determined by the mighty power of God, then what kind of hopeless world should a cultivator live in?
"Don't be afraid, there is no impenetrable cage in this world, even if it is as strong as Luo Chu'e, it is still afraid of this ordinary black ruler, isn't it?" Chu Yingchan saw the disappointment on his face The color, smiled slightly, and said.
"Yeah."
Lin Shouxi nodded, he closed his eyes, recalling the details of getting along with Luo Chu'e.
Luo Chu'e is the master of this undead country. Whether it is the gray mist monster outside the city wall or all the souls inside the city wall, she seems to be in the palm of her hand. Their attacks seem to touch A certain wall of law has no effect on Luo Chu'e, except when facing the black ruler and Luo Shu in his body, this fallen goddess is almost perfect.
This Luo Chu'e is like the manifestation of Heaven in the Immortal City. She is the queen of a country here, but she must abide by her own rules. Even for native assassins, she has a tolerant side.
If the black ruler represents rules that do not belong here, then what does Luo Shu represent?
Doesn't it belong to the mind of this world?
Hmm...it shouldn't be that simple.
Lin Shouxi was running Luoshu's mental method, which helped him breathe out the true energy around him. On the surface, it was calm, like a river flowing slowly through his body, and he couldn't see anything unusual.
It was this ordinary mentality that made him miraculously stand up under the pressure of Luo Chu'e.
"I really didn't expect that the **** son who was once hailed as the saint of the **** wall and iron sword in the ancient books would be reduced to this dark place and become such a witch." Chu Yingchan sighed softly, Disappointment and bewilderment were revealed in the words.
"The Holy Maiden of the Wall of God and the Iron Sword?"
"Hmm..."
Chu Yingchan probably told him some stories about Luo Chu'e. In the only remaining stories about her, she was so holy and beautiful, like the light itself. Then... what happened? ?
"Shi Yirao possesses the pure blood of true immortals. She is very similar to Luo Chu'e and is her descendant. My mother also said that as the head of the seven goddesses in the Holy Soil Palace, she is the most likely Become the next saint of the temple." Chu Yingchan said everything she knew, feeling more and more strange and mysterious about fate.
Of course, it doesn't make sense to say this now, they have to think of a way to win the bet.
Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan discussed again and considered several strategies, but they were rejected one by one.
Gradually, they stopped talking, because they all had a clear understanding in their hearts - the best way to win the bet is to defeat Luo Chu'e before Chu Yingchan loses control of the curse seal.
This is the easiest and most difficult way, maybe even the only way.
Sitting like this, looking at the familiar faces, they all felt a little unreal from the silence and quietness.
"If there is really no other way, I will choose to try my best to save your life. I hope Fairy Chu understands." Lin Shouxi was silent for a long time, his face as serious as iron.
"Yeah." Chu Yingchan bowed her head in response, she didn't look at Lin Shouxi, and said softly: "If you lose your composure then, please... forgive me."
There is no ambiguity in their words, only solemnity and guilt.
The two of them stopped talking after they finished speaking, and the silence in the room seemed to freeze.
Suddenly, the red marks on the center of Chu Yingchan's eyebrows flickered.
Luo Chu'e made a betting agreement and rules, and if they violated the rules, the red seal would flash to warn them.
Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan quickly realized that their identities should be masters and apprentices, but their conversations and wording were quite different from this identity.
"Disciple, you have been cultivating for more than ten years, but you have stayed in the Xuanzi Realm, and you have not taken half a step forward. You are very talented, but you don't want to make progress. But...you know your mistake?" Chu Yingchan's voice Suddenly fierce, as cold as the edge of a sword.
"Yes, this disciple knows his mistake." Lin Shouxi said respectfully.
A crisp voice resounded in the room, and Chu Yingchan picked up the ruler and hit Lin Shouxi's palm a few times, showing her prestige.
The red seal no longer blinks.
They breathed a sigh of relief, but felt even more tired... While trying every means to defeat Luo Chu'e, they actually had to spend all their time trying to pretend to be a master and apprentice, so as to perfunctorily pass the red seal.
Just as the curse seal stopped flashing, there was a knock on the door.
Boom boom boom...
There are twelve rooms in this huge waterwheel-like building, and the knock on the door came from a neighbor.
"Disciple, go and have a look." Lin Shouxi frowned slightly and stood up.
There are thick and huge black wooden planks between the rooms. The wooden planks are shaped like iron sheets and are extremely hard. Lin Shouxi opened an iron window, and through a layer of narrow iron railings, he vaguely saw the next room.
"La la la la - hello, new neighbor."
In the next room, a girl's lively voice suddenly sounded, "Look here, look here! Below!"
Lin Shouxi lowered his head following the sound, and saw a very small girl.
She looks about the same size as Bai Zhu, with a slender body, but she has lost her childishness, with a sense of youth unique to a girl. In order to let Lin Shouxi see more clearly, she took the initiative to step back for a certain distance.
"Well... hello." Lin Shouxi replied bluntly.
"New friends, the house you live in is not very auspicious. I have lived here for almost two hundred years. I am unshakable, but my neighbors are like rabbits. It has been thirty-two so far. I hope you can Stay longer."
"Thank you for your good words." Lin Shouxi didn't expect that this little guy was over two hundred years old.
"I heard that you are from outside?" the little girl asked mysteriously.
"Who did you listen to?"
"It doesn't matter who you listen to... Well, that is to say, you have passed through the land of candle smoke, how are you doing? Did you see anything interesting?" The little girl asked excitedly.
"The realm of candle smoke?" Lin Shouxi showed doubts.
"That's right, it's the place shrouded in gray mist. Didn't you all come from the Temple of the Black Emperor?" The little girl blinked.
"Yes."
"That's right." The little girl clapped her hands and said, "Tell me quickly, what happened to you."
After Lin Shouxi hesitated, he gave a rough description of what he saw and heard.
"Oh, it turns out that what you blew out was the candle of fear..." The little girl was thoughtful.
"Candle of Fear?"
"Well, the seven candles in the Temple of the Black Emperor symbolize the seven emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire. Blow out the corresponding candles, and the corresponding scenes will appear in the gray fog. What you blow out is fear. , what I saw should be something terrifying..." The little girl spoke plausibly, obviously understanding this very well.
Lin Shouxi suddenly realized ~IndoMTL.com~ The scene is born from the heart, the scene outside the Black Emperor Temple was manifested by the seven emotions divine candle, and the one blowing the candle at that time was an actress, so those scenes should be an actress Transformed by the fear in her heart... No wonder she said without thinking that it is natural for people to be afraid of giants. It seems that she has had a corresponding experience.
Generally speaking, if you fall into fear, you will become more fearful, and then you will be swallowed by gray fog in a vicious circle.
Fortunately, the person who broke into the gray mist was not alone, and his golden pupil happened to break the deadlock.
"You know this place well?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Of course." The little girl patted her forehead and said, "I'm a big celebrity here, you can ask me for anything you don't understand."
"Why did you help me?" Lin Shouxi was a little wary.
"Because we have a common enemy." The little girl smiled like a flower, but she didn't explain too much, she just said: "Come on, let me introduce you to the inmates in this building who have great powers."
