I will Bury the Gods Chapter 42: : Rain Street
Master Yun looked at the white wall and talked about what he saw in Niechi.
Following the traces of the dragon corpse, he found the ice field. There was indeed a dark river under the ice field. He dived into the dark river and came to the stone chamber smoothly.
The arrangement in the stone room was as Lin Shouxi had described, with corpses hanging in it, filled with gray mist, and the headless corpse of the evil spirit bitten by the dragon corpse was also carried back to the stone room by the undercurrent.
At the end of the stone chamber, there is a big groove, and there are many spots on the stone in the groove, like the traces of a suction cup.
But the evil spirits were gone.
"If you didn't lie, then the evil spirit should have woken up. It left Niechi and disappeared." Master Yun's words were full of worry.
Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe looked at each other with some doubts.
According to the statement on the stone wall, the evil spirit needs to gather twenty skeletons to be resurrected, but...
"I hope it went to other places along the dark river."
Master Yun was too tired, he was too lazy to think about it, closed his eyes, and turned his back.
Lin Shouxi's expression froze - a blue ghost was lying on the back of Master Yun, grinning at him with a creepy smile.
The cyan little ghost disappeared so quickly that he even felt that this was just an illusion caused by his recent trance. He wanted to remind Master Yun, but Master Yun walked out of the yard in a blink of an eye and disappeared into the drizzle.
"I'm a little worried." Xiaohe said.
"Yeah."
Lin Shouxi nodded. The appearance of evil spirits in Niechi is not accidental, and it may be related to the inheritance of the guarding god.
Following the Divine Ceremony, the Divine Court is about to open, but the undercurrent is still raging, and the monsters hidden in it are far from revealing their true colors.
According to Xiaohe's judgment, the evil spirit's rank is definitely not low, and it may even be a small evil spirit...
Unable to figure out what to do, they left the Demon Killing Academy together.
"By the way, I've always had a doubt." Lin Shouxi said.
"What?"
"How on earth did we get here?"
Lin Shouxi asked: "The guardian **** opened the altar before he died, but how do you know that you will be drawn to the witch family by the altar?"
Xiaohe looked at Lin Shouxi, also showing a puzzled look, "You really don't know?"
"..." Lin Shouxi shook his head.
"Because I have worshiped the statue of the Guardian God."
Xiaohe explained: "The guarding gods don't randomly pull people, um... All the gods don't pick people randomly. Generally speaking, they only call their own believers. I am the fourth lady of the Wu family. , My aunt told me that there would be this day, so I worshiped the statue of the guardian when I was young."
Xiaohe rolled her eyes and looked at Lin Shouxi calmly, "What? Haven't you ever worshiped? There is no need to hide anything from me."
The statue guarding the adults?
Lin Shouxi has no memory at all. In the past sect, he only worshiped the Black Phoenix.
Wait...
He suddenly thought of the **** of the dead city.
Could it be it?
Is it the guardian **** of the witch family...
Thinking of this, there seemed to be a flash of lightning in his mind, illuminating his thoughts instantly.
'There are two sword marks on the statue of the guardian god. ’
The words that Master Yun said faintly reappeared in his mind, he thought of the Zhan Palace in the Jiange again, his thoughts froze, and he finally grasped the key.
Could those two sword marks be the work of himself and Mu Shijing...
On that rainy night, they killed the guardian **** of the Wu family!
But with their strength, how could it be possible...
Was the power suppressed when the guardian **** tried to come to the new world?
Or did someone else make a move somewhere?
He has no answer for the time being.
"What are you thinking about?" Xiaohe stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him.
"It's nothing." Lin Shouxi said, "I really can't remember what gods I worshiped."
"Hmph, you don't remember anything." Xiaohe expressed dissatisfaction with his forgetfulness.
"Why did Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang never talk about this?" Lin Shouxi asked again.
"Hey, is my servant really a pig's brain? Or do you really know nothing?"
Xiao He was so angry that she folded her arms around her chest, looked Lin Shouxi up and down, and said, "If you weren't born like a dog, I would suspect that you are not from this world."
Lin Shouxi was startled, he smiled gently, and asked, "Do you think I'm an exiled immortal?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Xiaohe snorted.
Xiaohe pursed her lips and talked about business: "Evil gods are one of the greatest enemies of our human beings. Worshiping evil gods is absolutely forbidden. Only some evil sects will do this in private. And delusional to release the **** they believe in from the seal of the sea."
"So, Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang will never admit that they have worshiped the evil god, because this incident itself is enough to execute them." Xiaohe explained seriously.
"The guardian **** is an evil god?" Lin Shouxi was a little surprised.
"Of course not." Xiaohe said: "According to the records of the ancestor of the Wu family, the guardian **** was once the lord of the land that ruled one side, killed countless evil spirits, and was one of the imposing ancient gods." /
"Then why..."
"Ugly."
Xiaohe knew what he wanted to ask, "Although it is not very good to talk about the gods, the statue of the guardian **** is indeed a stump. It is recorded, so the people of Shenshan will mistakenly think that this is an evil god."
"That's how it is." Lin Shouxi felt a little funny, he said: "Even righteous gods will be misunderstood as extraterritorial demons because of their appearance. If extraterritorial demons are born beautiful, will they be worshiped as gods?"
"..." Xiaohe looked at him distrustfully, "You can't really be a demon, are you?"
"It's too embarrassing for a foreign demon to be a servant of a fourteen-year-old girl." Lin Shouxi smiled and shook his head.
"Why is it ashamed to be my servant?" Xiaohe's expression became serious, and he went to pull his ear again, "Please explain to me clearly!"
The two of them walked away along the rainy street, and in the demon-killing courtyard behind, the disciples poked their heads out cautiously, watching their receding backs, and lowered their voices, communicating with each other sentence by sentence.
"Miss seems very fierce, Mr. Lin will be..."
"What do you know, miss is only so fierce to those close to her."
"Yeah, after going through so much, they should have achieved a positive result..."
"Miss Ke is only fourteen years old."
"It's normal to marry at the age of fourteen..."
"Yes, they are really beautiful."
These words would have been inaudible to Xiaohe in the past, but now she no longer suppresses her realm, coupled with the spiritual root of sound, she can naturally hear them clearly.
Her pretty face was slightly flushed, and the hands holding Lin Shouxi's ears were loosened, her delicate hands were twisted in front of her body, the girl lowered her jaw, her eyelashes drooped over her eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
The two walked casually in the Wu family like this. In the eyes of others, they were a couple who had just fallen in love.
Sorrows and joys can be heard in the rain alley.
As Lin Shouxi listened to the music and looked at the girl with snow-haired shawl beside him, his heartbeat inevitably accelerated.
He is fifteen years old this year, and he is also at the age when he is full of blood and love. Although he thinks that love and desire are meaningless things, it should be okay to experience it... There is nothing wrong with young people's attraction, let alone going through it together. What about the girl who lived and died?
Is this kind of never-before-seen affection love...
No, the situation of all parties is still unclear, and it is definitely not the time to think about these things.
Lin Shouxi took a deep breath, and felt that this kind of self was not like him. A true ascetic should be as calm as ice... Well, it must be the Acacia Sect mentality that he practiced in the past. I know I can't practice anymore...
What's more, she still doesn't know about the Heartless Curse.
How would she react if she found out... Lin Shouxi didn't dare to think.
Xiaohe's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Lin Shouxi followed and stopped.
The sound of the music is far away, and there is no one around in the rainy alley, only young girls and their bamboo umbrellas.
Xiaohe raised her head and tiptoed slightly, as if she was asking for something.
"What's wrong?" Lin Shouxi was stunned.
"..." Xiaohe's breakable red lips seemed to open and close, her nostrils fluttered slightly, and she lowered her tiptoes, and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that you smell better and better."
"Really?"
"Well..." Xiaohe was really angry: "Your elm head, you should knock it with a wooden fish every day!"
After speaking, Xiaohe walked forward quickly.
Only then did Lin Shouxi realize that he seemed to have missed something.
He quickly followed.
The moment of silence just now was like an illusion, Xiaohe's hands twisted in front of her body fell back to her side again, she looked forward, her expression returned to tranquility.
Before they knew it, they came to the door of the Wu family hall again.
In front of the wordless stone tablet, Xiao He stopped.
"This is the tombstone of my mother and me. They all thought I was dead." Xiaohe said.
"In the future, my tombstone should also be erected here." Lin Shouxi made up for his mistake just in time.
Xiaohe snorted softly and said, "You are my personal servant, of course you must not leave an inch."
Lin Shouxi looked at the stone painting above.
He had noticed this stone painting before.
In the painting, the pale dragon spreads its wings, and the people below bow their heads.
"You don't even know it, do you?" Xiaohe sighed.
"I know, this is a dragon..." Lin Shouxi said.
"..." Xiaohe looked at him helplessly, and patiently explained: "This is the most powerful dragon in the ancient times recorded in the scroll of Xiansheng. He was once the sole ruler of heaven and earth, the king of ten thousand dragons, the cohesion of all laws, the unimaginable and immeasurable god. We don’t know his real name, but we only call him Pale.”
"Pale..." Lin Shouxi asked: "Since it is such an unshakable existence, where did it go?"
"I went under Fusang."
"Fusang?"
Lin Shouxi has heard of this name before. It is a sacred tree recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas. It is even said that it is two thousand feet high and more than two thousand circumferences long.
Could it be said that Fusang is not just a legend, but a real sacred tree in this world?
"Well, Fusang is an ancient sacred tree. It is said that it is the beginning of all things and the only origin of the world. It is said that the Pale King was trapped under the Fusang tree by an unknown force, gnawing at the leaves of the Fusang tree day and night. The root system wants to escape from it, its scales gradually turn black, polluting the earth, its blood oozes out of the soil, converging into a poisonous spring..."
Xiaohe talked about the long past, and the words were long, "But these are just stories that have been widely circulated. What happened in the ancient times, where did the pale king go, where is Fusang, and where did the dragon corpse come from?" , who sealed the evil god...these are still unsolved mysteries."
The world is incomparably far away, and the place they are in is just a hidden corner of the huge world.
Lin Shouxi looked at the huge stone wall and the giant dragon worshiped by the ancestors of mankind, and felt a slight sense of powerlessness.
The two left the murals, walked toward the hall, and came to the back of the hall.
There are two pure black side halls at the back of the main hall. There is a well in front of the hall, and the word "Guardian" is engraved on the well.
In the middle of the two wells stands a big tripod, which is stable and peaceful, and its brilliance is silent.
"What is this copper tripod used for?"
Lin Shouxi looked at the big tripod in front of the hall, and asked: "There seems to be such a tripod in the ancient courtyard."
"This is the alchemy furnace."
Xiaohe explained: "Pillions such as Yuye Dan are refined by relying on this."
"Alchemy? Is there a dedicated alchemist?"
"You don't need an alchemist, you can try it yourself, turn on the furnace, then press your hand here, and use your inner skills."
The corners of Xiao He's lips were raised, and he said with a smile: "Of course, alchemy requires skill, and someone like you who has never practiced alchemy is likely to fail."
"It's interesting." Lin Shouxi said.
"It won't be interesting until you refine the waste pill again and again." Xiaohe sneered lightly.
Lin Shouxi really wants to try.
He approached the furnace. The shape of this furnace is similar to that in the ancient courtyard. They are all large copper furnaces with cloud, thunder and kui patterns, with three legs and three animal mouths. Eight sides are hollowed out, and the inside is pitch black.
Xiaohe walked up to him and taught him how to use the cauldron.
Xiaohe condensed a spark on her fingertips with her true energy, and shot it into the furnace while she was bucking the bullet, and the inside of the chamber brightened up.
"Hold your hand here." Xiaohe pointed to a faucet and said.
Lin Shouxi held the dragon head with his hand.
In an instant, a wonderful force connected the furnace and his body together. The temperature of the furnace was rising, and the temperature of his body was also gradually rising. When he closed his eyes, he felt a raging fire in his consciousness. In the picture, in the center of the flame, there seems to be a grain of true essence waiting to condense.
"Don't you need to pour in the herbs?" Lin Shouxi asked.
"Alchemy is not refining medicine. Pills are taken from stones. The inner alchemy in this copper furnace is a precious magic stone. If you think about the mental method you are familiar with, when the alchemy furnace is running, the flame will cut the stone chips like a blade. Fall, wrap the true meaning of your mind, and condense into a real pill."
Xiaohe is like a persuasive teacher, giving careful guidance.
Lin Shouxi has high talent and high comprehension, and he knows everything.
Familiar mentality...
He silently recited the key points of the mental method and input them into the pill furnace. The raging fire in the pill furnace began to beat, burning more and more vigorously.
Xiaohe showed a strange look, then lowered his face in annoyance, as if expressing deep dissatisfaction with his extremely high talent.
If things go on like this, how can I call him a fool in the future?
Kuromaru reversed direction, true energy flowed all over his body, he felt that he was in the bright firelight, took the red fire essence as the seed, and pieced it together into a circle.
Boom!
Like a raging fire filled with oil, the red and white flame suddenly rises in the furnace, and then goes out.
Then, one of the animal heads opened its mouth.
Xiaohe took out an empty porcelain bottle from nowhere and handed it to the mouth of the copper beast. After hearing a few clicks, several small pills rolled out of it and slid into the porcelain bottle.
Xiaohe took a look and found that these elixirs were of good quality.
She took out one and wanted to make a few critical remarks, but she couldn't find any faults.
"Well, it's really good to be like this for the first time. You are worthy of being my servant... What kind of pill did you make?"
As Xiaohe asked, she pushed a elixir to her lips, wanting to taste it.
"I really want the Albizia Pill." Lin Shouxi said.
Xiaohe let out a cry, quickly retrieved the elixir from her lips, and threw it into the porcelain bottle.
She said angrily: "Are you serious or fooling me?"
"Of course I'm serious. This is my surest way of thinking." Lin Shouxi said calmly.
After listening to Xiaohe, she felt that her body was getting hotter... Did she have such a reaction after just taking a sip?
"You still want to try me for pills?" Xiaohe asked.
"It's what you want to eat." Lin Shouxi shirked responsibility.
"You..." Xiaohe said angrily, "What if I accidentally ate it just now?"
"I have an antidote."
"Are you still practicing antidote?"
"No."
"..." Xiaohe was clever and quick-witted, and soon realized that this thing doesn't seem to need a special refining antidote...
"You...you really deserve to be born as a demon heretic." Xiaohe threw the porcelain bottle back to him, "You can keep this thing for yourself, if you encounter a female enemy chasing you again in the future, you can feed her two Grains."
"Female enemy..."
Lin Shouxi caught the porcelain vase, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid we won't see it again."
Xiaohe immediately cast a suspicious look.
Lin Shouxi knew what she was thinking, and explained: "Don't think about it, my old enemy is a little girl, but she is born with a thick face, and she is far less beautiful than the eldest lady."
"Who cares about her appearance?" Xiaohe looked at him contemptuously and said, "You don't think I like you, do you?"
"..." Lin Shouxi smiled, put away the elixir, and suddenly calmed down.
"What's the matter?" Xiaohe noticed his strangeness.
Lin Shouxi stared at her light-colored pupils, his emotions were suppressed by his tone of awe, "Xiaohe, tell me the truth, in the picture you foresee, is that person really me?"
"Huh?"
It was only then that Xiaohe remembered that the whole world seemed to know that the foresighted spirit root was just a lie, but Lin Shouxi didn't know it!
At that time, he was locked in Xiangye Pavilion...
Lin Shouxi quietly waited for her answer.
Xiaohe looked at his delicate cheeks, but her eyes moved away like an electric shock. Her pale pupils suddenly became foggy and lost focus. It seems to be on and off~IndoMTL.com~ After a long time, she got a haircut before continuing:
"Well...it's you."
Since he doesn't know yet, then continue to hide it from him...you are so stupid, you deserve to be deceived by me...
The air between the two seemed to start flowing again.
Lin Shouxi asked: "Then what do you care about?"
"Ah..."
Xiaohe couldn't stand the menacing attack of the opponent, and was immediately stopped by the question. Although she is usually delicate and domineering, she has lived in the mountains for a long time, and she has never seen a decent living person. She has no experience in these things. .
This is not martial arts, you can see the tricks, and she fell into the disadvantage unknowingly.
Xiaohe took a deep breath, and asked in an equally imposing manner: "Are you going to succumb to fate like this?"
"Huh?"
Now it was Lin Shouxi's turn to be confused.
Xiaohe immediately regained her aura, raised her head, patted Lin Shouxi on the shoulder, and said: "Fate should be the traces we walk, not the road imposed by some unknown thing No matter how beautiful the established life is, it is still a shackle, we must break it and defy it, this is the proof of our birth as human beings!"
"You...understand?" Xiaohe asked solemnly.
Lin Shouxi nodded with a vague understanding.
He was a little desperate and couldn't imagine what kind of life he would live with this arrogant little girl in the future.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this."
Xiaohe said: "Let me take you to the secret room of the Wu family first."
"The secret room of the witch family?"
"En." Xiaohe's reddish cheeks quickly cooled down, she collected herself and said, "Let me show you why the Wu family keeps so many birds, and then let you know why." ——Human cultivating demons.”
