I will bury the gods

Chapter 36 The Color of Twilight
Lin Shouxi had that dream again.

He walked through the vast white snow field, surrounded by darkness and no one, the world was like a beast with a huge mouth, and the endless wind was its long roar.

At the end of the wilderness is a temple made of copper. Countless iron cables run through it, intertwined into a cage. A black shadow is nailed to a sword full of green rust. Three twisted Shuras each have their handprints. The ghostly stele fell to its knees, and the ground was covered in darkness.

The black shadow in the center made a mournful sound, as if calling for him, and also as if asking him to escape.

The cold and sticky feeling was like tentacles spreading over. Lin Shouxi stood there, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss, at a loss for what to do.

Until the heavy snow drowned the dream, he finally woke up from it.

The pain corroded the body, the Qi pills were difficult to move, the true Qi seemed to accumulate in stagnant water in the body, and the maggots born in the stagnant water kept biting his body.

The pain was worse than when I woke up on the first day.

What was even more painful was that when Lin Shouxi woke up this time, what he saw was not Xiaohe's slender white hair, but Yun Zhenren's indifferent face.

"I have sealed all the key points of your spiritual veins."

This is the first sentence that Yun Zhenren said.

"Ah."

Lin Shouxi didn't say anything, he lay quietly on the grass couch, exhausted, no matter how scary the real Yun in front of him was, he couldn't compare to the terrifying white bones who had chased him all the way.

Master Yun looked even more tired than him.

His right eye seemed to have been opened once, with blood oozing under the eyelids, and the white powder on his cheeks was even thicker, but it still couldn't cover up the red blood on his pale skin, and there was a fishy smell in the dark Taoist robe, even more so. The most important thing is that the mahogany sword behind him was also shattered.

The dragon corpse must have been subdued by the Wu family with all their strength, but they also paid a considerable price.

"Tell me about what happened in Niechi." Master Yun asked.

"The real person should have asked other disciples, right?" Lin Shouxi said.

"Yeah." Master Yun took out a mantra stone and handed it to him, "But I want to hear your answer, because I think you know better."

Lin Shouxi took the mantra stone and held it in his hand.

He took a deep breath and cleared his mind.

The Stone of Mantra can judge whether he is lying, but it cannot prevent him from deliberately concealing part of the truth.

"I saw evil spirits."

Lin Shouxi raised his head, looked straight into Yun Zhenren's eyes, and spoke surprisingly, using heavy to cover light.

Master Yun frowned as expected, "You mean the one that fought with the dragon corpse? We found some fragments of its corpse."

"No." Lin Shouxi said categorically, "There is a dark river under the ice field. If you float up the middle of the dark river, you can go to a stone room. There are eighteen bones on the walls of the stone room, and there is a tall evil spirit in the deepest part." , that headless evil spirit is guarding it, holding a ritual to revive it."

The Mantra Stone has no sound.

"Evil spirits?" Master Yun's interest was indeed attracted, "Is there any evil spirits hidden in Niechi..."

"Well, there are still two bones left, and the evil spirit in Niechi is about to wake up." Lin Shouxi said, "Xiaohe and I almost died there."

The evil spirits in Ruo Niechi's stone room also woke up, and it is unknown what kind of troubles will happen to the Wu family today.

Is this the rebellion of the witch family that the teacher said...

Master Yun thought lightly.

Fortunately, the weapons formed by the connected high-rises of the Wu family are more terrifying than dragon corpses. Although it took a lot of effort, they finally shot through the heart of the red-eyed giant bone dragon and killed it outside the white wall .

Although the bones of the giant dragon had collapsed, the endless roar of the dragon was still echoing in his mind.

Master Yun calmed down, and said, "Well, I know about the evil spirits, do you have anything else to say?"

"We met someone exactly like you." Lin Shouxi said.

"There are many people who hate me, but I don't remember who he is." Master Yun obviously knew about this.

"He said that the key to open the seal of Niechi is..." Lin Shouxi continued.

Master Yun's expression remained unchanged, obviously, he had already asked about this matter from other disciples.

"Really... have you found the key?" Lin Shouxi asked tentatively.

Master Yun didn't answer, but Lin Shouxi could tell from his expression that he should have questioned other disciples one by one, but the whereabouts of the legendary key was still unknown.

"anything else?"

Master Yun stared at him.

"I don't know what the real person wants to know?" Lin Shouxi asked.

Master Yun's left eye was shining brightly. He stared at Lin Shouxi and approached slowly, as if he wished to gouge out his eyeballs and stick them on his face.

"Where did your cultivation base come from? How did Ah Yue die? And..." Master Yun asked quietly, "Where did you come from?"

……

"I come from Heiya, a large-scale demon sect in the mountains, and my realm cultivation is also obtained from my cultivation since I was a child. I cultivated Taoism hard since I was a child, so I have accumulated some foundations. As for Ah Yue..."

Lin Shouxi paused, and said truthfully, "He wanted to kill me, so I killed him."

The Mantra Stone remained silent.

"You're fairly honest." Yun Zhenren said.

"Does the real person want to avenge Ah Yue?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Your life is more important than his." Master Yun said indifferently: "Letting Ah Yue come to kill you is a temptation. If you can survive, it means that you should survive."

"Thank you, real person." Lin Shouxi said.

"You want to kill me?" Master Yun's voice became colder.

"No." Lin Shouxi replied subconsciously.

hum-

The mantra Shi Changming.

Lin Shouxi raised his head, and Master Yun had a smile on his face.

Master Yun said in a soft tone: "Don't be afraid, I want to kill you too, or...you will no longer be able to see the morning sun tomorrow."

"Why tomorrow?"

"Tonight, the three young masters and ladies are going to choose a god servant. You have too many secrets and it's not safe." Yun Zhenren said: "Although there are not many variables, I am a cautious person. If there is an accident, I still have to Enable you."

"I see." Lin Shouxi said, "But they also have secrets."

"They seem to be safer than you. What's more, you have seen evil spirits. The invasion of evil spirits is always inadvertent. You may have been polluted." The reason given by Master Yun is also very simple.

Lin Shouxi didn't have the strength to speak anymore. He lowered his eyes and looked at the sunset shining through the gap. His delicate face was as quiet as a frozen lake.

"Aren't you afraid?" Yun Zhenren asked.

"My fear has been exhausted in Niechi." Lin Shouxi said.

Master Yun smiled, his pale face was covered with powder, and a face covered with spots could be vaguely seen behind him.

"I took your sword away, and I also sealed your acupoints with 72 seals." Yun Zhenren said: "There is still one night, you can try to resist."

Master Yun left.

He was alone in the house.

Lin Shouxi didn't try to break the seal, he got off the bed, walked to the window barefoot, and rolled up the curtain.It was dusk outside the window, and the setting sun was hanging in the sky, like a hole scalded by flames, but the scattered light rendered everything pale red.

The setting sun is like blood, which seems to indicate the light of blood.

Lin Shouxi wanted to meet Xiaohe, but Master Yun would not give him this chance.

So he could only wait quietly for the sun to set.

What a ridiculous fate, he escaped from the darkness shrouded in death, and strayed into the lair surrounded by blades.

There is no escape and running here, but the quiet waiting is even more desperate.

The door was pushed open.

The one who walked in was Xiao Liu, no, since he lost to Xiao He, he was Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi looked at Lin Shouxi with a complicated expression.

"You and Xiaohe saved many people in Niechi. Among all the survivors, only me and the other two God's Chosen were not saved by you."

Xiaoqi said: "So the real person asked me to watch you."

"it is good."

Lin Shouxi nodded. He looked at the sunset and didn't care about Xiao Liu's arrival.

"Your clumsiness in hiding has indeed exceeded my expectations." Xiao Qi said, "It's a pity that no matter how hard you hide, you can't escape the fate of impermanence."

Xiao Qi walked to his side and looked into the distance together with him.

The sky and the earth are like a yellow sea, and the tall buildings and pagodas of the Wu family are like dead corals in the sea.

"This is not the Demon Killing Yard, this is Xiangye Pavilion, a place where sinners or polluted people wait to die." Xiao Qi said: "Those who fall here will be executed by Master Yun himself. No one has ever survived."

"I know." Lin Shouxi said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Waiting for a miracle to happen?" Xiao Qi sneered.
