I will bury the gods

Chapter 59
God's domain isolated island.

This Avalokitesvara statue is much bigger than the one in the dead city. She has not been completely carved, and she is sunken in the mountain, as if she is supporting the entire mountain with thousands of hands, so big that she loses the sense of reality.

"what happened?"

Xiaohe noticed his strangeness, and turned her head, she was also shocked by the giant image behind her.

Fortunately, the Avalokitesvara in the top of the sky is like a dead object, otherwise she could crush them to death with just a little lift of her feet.

Lin Shouxi couldn't explain to Xiaohe his fear of the Guanyin statue, so he calmed down and asked, "Do you have such a statue here?"

"I've never seen it before." Xiaohe thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "This looks like the image of a certain ancient true immortal."

As she said, she put her hands together and wanted to salute God, but Lin Shouxi held her hands and shook her head, "As you said, you can't worship God casually."

"If it looks like this, it can't be an evil god, right?" Xiaohe said.

"You can't judge gods by appearances." Lin Shouxi said helplessly: "It's better to be on the safe side."

"Well, that's right." Xiaohe listened to what he said.

After crossing the scaffolding, the two continued to walk forward.

Looking down from the top of the mountain before, they saw the Shenting in the center from a distance. There is only one road to the Shenting, and the rest is shrouded in thick fog.There are triple turret gates on the road.

Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe came to the first scull door, and there were two words written in front of the door: Don't look at it.

Do not see evil.

There is also a plaque hanging in the middle of the wooden carved dragon pillars on both sides, with rules written on it.

Those who pass through this gate need to cover their eyes with each other's hands, not to see the things in the building, and those who violate it will die.

The rules are simple and easy to follow.

Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe stretched out their hands to cover each other's eyes. Lin Shouxi was taller than Xiaohe, so Xiaohe had to raise his hand, and it was a bit difficult to see.

"Why don't you change your posture?" Lin Shouxi asked.

While Xiaohe was puzzled, Lin Shouxi walked up behind her and covered her eyes from behind. Xiaohe had to raise his hand higher and press back to cover his eyes.

"Isn't this even more tiring!" Xiaohe said angrily.

Having said that, in this posture, she was slightly leaning against Lin Shouxi's strong chest, which gave her a sense of security, so she just complained and didn't say much. step into the door.

The scull gate, which seemed ordinary before, turned out to be something special after entering. They felt that the surroundings suddenly became dark, and there were rustling sounds from time to time, as if someone was pointing and commenting on them.

People close their eyes and walk for a while on flat ground, and they will feel a strong sense of uneasiness within a few steps, let alone here?

Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe were unavoidably nervous. They didn't know where they were, and they didn't dare to open their eyes. There seemed to be ghosts lurking in the darkness around them. I can't be sure whether the bricks under my feet are stable. If I step on the air or step on something sticky...

Just as I was thinking, a voice spoke: "Open your eyes."

The voice sounded like an old man, steady and peaceful, and his simple words were very convincing.

Xiaohe had a desire to open his eyes, but Lin Shouxi pressed his hands even tighter. He knew that this should be a way to confuse him, and reminded Xiaohe.

Lin Shouxi silently recited the mantra of clearing his heart and put aside distracting thoughts. He and Xiaohe walked for a while, the voice in his ears weakened, and the light shone through his fingers again and shone on his eyelids—they should have walked out.

Is it that simple... Lin Shouxi wanted to open his eyes, but his toe hurt because Xiaohe was stepping on him with his heel.

Lin Shouxi groaned in pain and regained his senses, only to find that the surroundings were still dark, and the whispers in his ears had never stopped.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you standing still all of a sudden?" Xiaohe asked in a low voice.

"I didn't move just now?" Lin Shouxi asked in surprise.

"Otherwise, why would I step on your feet?" Xiaohe said angrily.

Lin Shouxi was terrified. It turned out that what he felt just now was just an illusion. If Xiaohe hadn't reminded him, he would have almost let go of his hand!

"I understand." Lin Shouxi said immediately.

"Understand what?"

"There will always be one of us who will stay awake. It could be you or me. If one of us falls into a maze, the other will pull him out." Lin Shouxi said seriously: "This test is ours. trust between

Xiaohe nodded belatedly, deeply convinced.

After finding out this point, the problem of Wushilou was almost solved. They both maintained full trust in each other. No matter what kind of hallucinations appeared, the two of them communicated and made a decision. The only problem was the second half of the journey. At that time, the two people's footsteps were slightly disordered, and Xiao He's shoes were almost trampled off, which made the tacit understanding between them seem to be a fly in the ointment.

After finally walking out of the Wushi Building, the two let go of their hands, and the light that shone on them was very kind.

Both Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe's cheeks had red marks from each other's hands.

At the moment when he walked out of the building, Lin Shouxi vaguely heard someone talking behind him, and the words were mixed with sorrow and sadness: "You are finally here."

He turned around and saw that there was no one in the building, and the words seemed to be just a lost illusion.

"It's doing pretty well."

Xiaohe obviously didn't hear anything, so she praised her, then pointed to her shoes, the heels of which were stepped on by Lin Shouxi, and her tender white feet were exposed, "Be careful in the future, you know?"

"I'll help you put it on."

Lin Shouxi glanced at her, picked her up deftly, and placed her on the tortoise beside him. He grabbed her little feet and took off her small black cloth soft-soled shoes. The girl's body was slightly stiff, and her beautiful arches were stretched. From her feet, her pink and crystal-clear toes curled up, looking a little clumsy. He flattened the fabric of the heel and put it on for her again.

"Do you have any thin stockings here?" Lin Shouxi couldn't help asking.

"..." Xiaohe bit her lip and stared at him, "Resist evil? Is it to resist evil monsters like you?"

Lin Shouxi seemed to be hit by a single sentence, but was speechless.

"Hey, don't touch my feet..."

After a while, Xiao He suddenly called out: "Go away, I will do it myself!"

Finally helped Xiaohe put on the shoes, Xiaohe's face was still full of anger.

Then, they entered the second door.

The name of the door is not to listen.

This time it was the ears that had to be covered.

"I don't know what kind of test there will be." Lin Shouxi was a little worried.

He probably understood the purpose of these doors, they were used to increase the tacit understanding between the servant and the master, making them true partners, but why did the Guardian God do this?Is it in charge of marriage?
Lin Shouxi became more and more curious.

"Don't worry, I have a magic method." Xiaohe's vocal root is full of confidence in Wutinglou.

Lin Shouxi also remembered the scene when he killed the false cloud in Niechi, and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of spell is it that you control the voice?"

Lin Shouxi still believes in foreseeing the spiritual root.

Xiaohe thought about it for a while, and said plausibly: "This is a Taoist method that transcends the magic of the five elements. It is called 'Crow Killing'. It is said that there was a fairy who stood upstairs and was tired of the crows on the roof. The world is silent..."

She spoke in style, and Lin Shouxi had no reason to doubt it.

Sure enough, with the help of Xiaohe, the second building passed smoothly, but the two of them were idle and bored along the way, so they touched each other's ears. It was terrible, and the small earlobes were as red as rubies.

"Don't see what is wrong, don't listen to what is wrong... This is not to see or to hear, it is simply to be indecent!" Xiaohe was indignant.

After passing the Wuting Building, it is the last building, Wuyan Building.

There are only two words outside the Wuyan building: Wuyan.

Wuyan Building is a building with triple eaves. The volley corridor connects two attics with double eaves on the top of the mountain. The pillars of the building are straight and the roof tiles are black. It looks very ancient. If Lin Shouxi hadn't confirmed that he was in another world, he would have thought I had strayed into a ruined palace.

Lin Shouxi touched the pillars, there was no dust on them.

Xiaohe stood up straight, with her sword slanted on her back, her arms crossed around her chest, and she looked at this majestic building with disdain. After going through the first two buildings, her red ears hadn't recovered yet, and she looked at Wu Yan at this moment. On the sign in front of the building, the girl's slender eyebrows frowned even tighter. There was only one rule written, and that was...to hold hands.

What kind of broken building is this?Isn't that how the relationship between the god attendant and the master is cultivated?
Xiaohe felt desperate, she became more and more convinced that the Guardian God must be a matchmaker...

If it is a matchmaker god, what kind of inheritance will it get?Help people match up, see people get married, and then gain cultivation from it?
Xiaohe suddenly lost a lot of interest.

She glanced at Lin Shouxi, and seeing Lin Shouxi's lifelike appearance, she was ashamed and angry, kicked him lightly, and asked, "You seem to be very happy?"

Lin Shouxi explained: "Although the three buildings are bumpy, they are not dangerous, which shows that what is waiting for us is not a demon. Of course, this is something to be happy about."

"Oh... so you were thinking about this."

Xiaohe nodded and said, "That's a bit reasonable, but the guardian god is a righteous god. According to the description of the scene in the dream by the head of the Wu family, when the guardian master is at his peak, sweeping away evil spirits is like stepping on ants. , Many lawless monsters are vulnerable to him. He lives at the bottom of Wuzhu Lake and has ruled a mountain and river for thousands of years. At the best time, groups of unalienated monsters can be seen in Wuzhu Lake. Fish, that's rare."

After finishing speaking, Xiaohe paused, doubts appearing on his cheeks, "I just don't know why such a powerful god is not recorded in the volume of appearance and life."

"Could it be because its appearance has changed?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Well, it's possible." Xiaohe pinched her jaw and said, "The little cliff lizard jumps into the sea, and it may also transform into a terrifying mosasaurus, and the guardian may manifest thousands of times, and his real body may also be there. In the scroll of supernatural life, we just don’t know it.”

"I often hear you mention the scroll of supernatural life, what is that thing...?" Lin Shouxi couldn't help asking.

"This is a classic written by the 'emperor' of the temple."

Xiaohe looked Lin Shouxi up and down, and said distressedly: "Which demon from outside the world are you? Can you do some preparatory work before coming to understand the customs and customs of our place!"

Xiaohe couldn't help hurting him, and was speechless about his stupid question.

"In the future." Lin Shouxi smiled and said, "Our hometown is too remote, so we can't compare with Xiaohe's knowledge and knowledge."

"Well, your hometown is really a strange place." Xiaohe agreed.

"In the future, I will take Xiaohe for a stroll. Although it is remote, it is very beautiful." Lin Shouxi looked into her eyes and said seriously.

Xiaohe looked elsewhere, and said casually, "Mmm... okay."

She didn't know what she was thinking, looking at the upset, she spread her hands calmly and said, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go upstairs first."

It was not the first time they held hands, but most of the past holding hands happened at dangerous moments, but it was the first time that they were so calm now.

Lin Shouxi took her hand and squeezed it gently.

Xiaohe's hands are soft and boneless. She is born with a cool body, so her small hands are also icy. Her hands are much smaller than Lin Shouxi's, but they are white and slender. The nails are crystal clear, with a light flesh color. Crooked little moon.

Lin Shouxi's is carved like jade, with distinct joints, and a cocoon formed by holding a sword for a long time in the palm, but it is not rough, but has the warmth of a scholar.

The two held hands, looking very natural.

But in the final analysis, they are all just inexperienced, fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys and girls, and now it is their first love, so how can it be true that there is no wave in the ancient well?
Lin Shouxi gently squeezed her hand, while Xiaohe rubbed his palm. Most of the scars on Lin Shouxi's palm healed, but she still remembered all the experiences of him protecting her, and couldn't help thinking about how she treated him so savagely. Is it not too good.

It was getting darker and darker.

The two walked on in fear.

Soon, the first question appeared before their eyes:
"What was the first secret book you practiced?"

'The Book of Hundred Demons. '

'Acacia strength. '

Both of them froze after answering.

Do not speak.

They couldn't speak, but as the problem appeared, the two people's inner voices came out uncontrollably, and then, they were surprised to find that they could actually hear each other's inner voices!

Xiaohe was overjoyed, thinking that her spiritual root of voice could also prevent the voice from being conveyed through the body, so that she could only listen to his secrets without revealing her own.

But her small thoughts were quickly broken.

"Your favorite color."

'black. '

'White. '

She activated the spiritual root of sound, but she still heard it... She quickly understood that they were holding hands at the moment, and Wu Yanlou should have bound them together. Since they are one body, the voice of the heart can be heard even if it cannot be heard in the body. be heard by each other.

After answering, Xiaohe was silent for a while, and made up with his heart, "I like black, but I like black, and it has nothing to do with you."

Lin Shouxi, who is dressed in black and has black hair, also responded: "I like white and it has nothing to do with your hair."

Soon, the two who wanted to cover up were overwhelmed by the question:
"Your favorite person."

They didn't want to answer, but they couldn't control their voices.

After giving each other's expected answers, none of them spoke, as if nothing had happened, as if this question did not exist at all.

Xiaohe feels wronged... What kind of broken place is this? Is such a place really worthy of such an ancient and solemn building?

Lou is a dead thing, he doesn't care about their emotions, Xiaohe is still cursing the gods in his heart, and the question has come face to face like revenge:
"What do you like most about each other?"

'Gentle, honest. 'Xiaohe answered with her heartfelt voice.She scolded Lin Shouxi for lying all day long, but deep down she felt that he was sincere. This...how could she face him in the future?

Xiaohe was struggling, but Lin Shouxi also gave a concise answer:

'foot. '

"???" Xiaohe was shocked, and said angrily in his heart: "You really stepped on my shoe on purpose just now! Well... I think you want to die!"

Lin Shouxi pretended to be dead in silence.

Xiaohe's perception of this so-called righteous god is getting worse and worse. She even doubts whether the little servant Lin Shouxi, who is of unknown origin, is the incarnation of that god. He turned into a servant to tease her. he did it...

Well, if that's the case, it's okay, but no matter what kind of monster he is afterwards, I must beat him up to vent my anger afterwards.

Then, after going through a few more innocuous questions, just as Xiaohe relaxed a little, a question that was almost fatal came over:
"Your most impressive dream."

Lin Shouxi recounted the dream of the snowy field. He walked alone on the snow field where the little ghost knelt on the stele, and saw a huge black shadow pierced by a copper-green sword. The Shura was above and the abyss was below.

And Xiaohe...

She lowered her head and hid her cheeks in her hair, but her little hands were unbearably warm.

Sure enough, what she recounted was the dream she had in the cave earlier:

'I was wearing a red gold embroidered skirt, sitting on the side of the couch, I took off my embroidered shoes and put them next to the bed, my calves were shaking slightly, Lin Shouxi pushed the door and came in, the red hijab was lifted, I stared at him pretending not to be shy, and asked He came to ask Miss Ben what to do, we had a tit-for-tat quarrel for a while, I deliberately provoked him, he pressed me on his knees to punish me with family law, his hands were like a rainstorm in the July thunder at first, then more and more It is becoming more and more gentle, like the wind that awakens the flowers in April and May, and the heat is on my earlobe and thin neck. He searched along my spine and touched the knot on the jade belt...'

"Don't listen, don't listen, don't listen! Dreams are always reversed!"

Xiaohe yelled, but couldn't interrupt her heart.

Lin Shouxi looked at her with a smile, wanting to rub the snow-haired girl into his arms and make her dream come true.

Throughout the whole process afterwards, Lin Shouxi was basically listening to Xiaohe recounting her dream, and the content of the dream was indescribably exciting, even Lin Shouxi was speechless for a while.Xiaohe was completely desperate, she could only keep blaming the half bottle of pills.

After finally walking out of Wuyan Tower, Xiaohe almost sat limp on the ground.

She was so upset that she felt ashamed and thrown home, she couldn't lift her head... Where the hell is this? I might as well go back to the snowy mountains. Although it's cold there, the monsters have their ferocity written on their faces. There are no such sinister people.

Lin Shouxi, on the other hand, was a bit broken...Anyway, being ashamed is a shame, and I can use this to tease this arrogant girl in the future.

Especially this dream...

Xiaohe sat on the ground with her eyes downcast to the ground, resentful and silent.

She sat for a while, and became even more annoyed, wondering if Lin Shouxi, an idiot, didn't know how to reach out to help her up?

She raised her head, intending to remind him, but saw Lin Shouxi staring blankly ahead, already lost in thought.

Xiaohe followed his line of sight and was also stunned.

The front is not an ancient palace or a barren ruin at all, but a beautiful and extravagant building... The building is much larger than when viewed from the top of the mountain. The golden, phantom-like bird hangs its colorful long feathers and looks into the distance. The antique palace wall is inlaid with colorful glazed windows. Instead of being obtrusive, it seems to be a rainbow reflected in the royal palace.

The lantern bearer stopped in front of the hall and hung the lantern in his hand on the door wall. Suddenly, all the lights in the building were lit up one after another, and the entire temple building supported by red lacquered wooden pillars seemed to be lit, revealing a magnificent attitude.

In front of the hall is a large ring-shaped pool. The long corridor on the pool is zigzag, and the light gauze mist is floating, and the lights from all over the building are poured into it. One scene, lost in thought for a long time... This is a beautiful scene she has never seen before.

Wonderland is nothing more than that, right?
When Xiaohe was insane, Lin Shouxi put his hands under her arms and hugged her like a kitten.

Xiaohe came back to her senses, and she asked softly, "What... is it here?"

"The royal palace." Lin Shouxi said firmly, "That's what you call, Shenting."

The gate of the Divine Court opened, the gate was too tall to be prepared for human beings, the lantern bearer stood inside, glanced back at them, and disappeared into the night.

Looking at the palace gate, Lin Shouxi felt a nameless sadness in his heart, as if the people in the palace had been waiting for him for 1000 years.
