The cave is actually myself

Chapter 258 A village trapped in strange captivity (4.8k)

At the beginning, Lu Yuan would personally lead the team to fight for the peaks within the range of the cave's spiritual thoughts. Gradually, he would let the cave monsters use it as an excuse to cultivate their independence.

The spiritual mind observes from a distance. If anything goes wrong, the high-level combat power of the cave will move in full force, crushing the trapped monsters on the mountain peaks and fighting monsters.

In this form, although there are some sacrifices in the cave, they are mainly the cannon fodder of monsters who joined halfway, or the low-level human figurines and spirit puppets that Lu Yuan had refined before.

In this way, there have been dozens of mountain peaks belonging to the cave, many of which are rich in spiritual minerals or spiritual plants.

When he was about to advance to the depths of Luomeng Mountain, Lu Yuan stopped his crazy expansion.

The fifth-grade monsters on the periphery of Luomeng Mountain are relatively rare, but once you get deep inside, there are countless fifth-grade and sixth-grade monsters or the same level of disaster-level weird beasts. In order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, Lu Yuan stopped.

He took back the expanded army, and the White Jade Sky Ape looked reluctant. During the whole process, it was full of fighting spirit and stayed in the first echelon of the battle, fighting against various monsters day and night without stopping.

Lu Yuan's spiritual thoughts comforted him and allowed him to settle down, absorb all the combat experience, and prepare for the future expansion of the cave.

The cave occupied more and more mountain peaks and became wider and wider, and Lu Yuan gradually became unable to do what he wanted.

Although his spiritual thoughts can cover the entire cave in an instant, he cannot instantly plant and take care of the spiritual plants and elixirs on each mountain peak.

The number of villagers in Lantern Village remaining in the core area was only over a hundred, and they worked hard day and night in order to obtain Lu Yuan's elixir techniques and other rewards.

Lu Yuan wanted to leave all the cultivation and management of the spiritual plants in the cave to them, but after all, the scope was too wide and the terrain was inconvenient, so it was unrealistic to contract the mountains hundreds of miles around to them.

Helpless, Lu Yuan had no choice but to focus on the outside of Luomeng Mountain.

Originally, he chose to stay on the outskirts of Luoyan Mountain. After the cave was promoted to a middle-level blessed land, with the main mountain peak as the center, the range that his spiritual sense could reach was as long as four to five hundred miles. Part of it is included.

Lu Yuan's mind wandered around that area and found traces of monks and humans one after another, so he decided to recruit some tool men.

"In the weird practice world, all living beings are suffering, so it has to be a good cave like me with a kind heart. I can't see them suffering, and provide them with a corner, so that they can live and live in peace, and even set foot on the path of practice to change the world. destiny."

Lu Yuan sighed in his heart while putting on a pair of Xianfeng Dao bone skin bags.

The paper man's tomb was shrunk many times and hung on the ribs between the Bone Erosion Demon Puppet's chest. The little paper man lay comfortably inside, swallowing the paper man's paste bit by bit.

Hundreds of pupils on the surface of the Huan Yin Tong's eyeball rotate slightly, occupying the heart of the bone-eroding demon puppet. The Yin-Yang Fairy Bat turns into two wisps of black and white aura, swimming around in the gaps between the bones.

Luomeng Mountain has a reputation for being dangerous. Lu Yuan walked for more than 100 miles before he found a medium-sized village.

As evening approaches, the sky becomes dark, and the sound of barking dogs can be heard from time to time throughout the village. Smoke rises from cooking stoves, and the aroma of gourmet food floats in the air.

"This smell... is a bit heady..."

Lu Yuan's abdominal skin shrank, he took a deep breath, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

He looked at the shadows of the village that seemed to be dormant in the night, chose an uninhabited corner, and floated into the village.

***
"Ma'am, I'm back!"

Wu Jiu crossed the threshold, with a gentle smile on his face, and said to the room.

"Ms. sir, you came back just in time. The food is almost ready. You can eat it in a moment."

A gentle female voice came from inside the wooden house, along with the sound of a spatula turning, the sound of firewood burning, and the sound of two children reading loudly in the next room, everything was full of the breath of life.

"Okay, then I'll go in and see dad first. I don't know how he is doing today."

A softness flashed in Wu Jiu's eyes, and she came to a wooden house at the end.

The windows of the wooden house are tightly covered, not letting in any light.

Wu Jiu gently pushed open the door, ducked into the house as quickly as possible, and then closed the door tightly.

There was no way. Ever since his father contracted a strange disease that could not be diagnosed, he became more and more afraid of the sun. As time went by, he could not even touch or see any light. If he accidentally saw it, he would start to wail in extreme pain. Voice.

Wu Jiu entered the house, and it took him a while to get used to the rich darkness inside. He took a familiar route and came to a wooden bed covered with black cloth.

"Dad, how are you feeling today? Are you feeling better?"

Lying on the wooden bed was an old man who was skinny and skinny. His eyes were sunken and tightly closed, and a faint sound of breathing came from his mouth and nose.

Wu Jiu walked up to the old man and held the old man's bony palm. Suddenly there was an extremely cold feeling, and the old man's flesh and bones seemed to be frozen.

Hearing his son's greeting, the skinny old man opened his eyes with difficulty, put his other palm on Wu Jiu's wrist, and said angrily.

"It's still the same, living one day at a time."

"It will get better. I heard that there is a village dozens of miles away. There are people in there who have learned the immortal alchemy technique. After taking it, they can get rid of all diseases and strengthen the body. I will definitely find a way to get an elixir for my father."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Wu Jiu's eyes, and she comforted her father by saying that he would sit on the bed and stay with him for a while, and then carefully take his hands away after his father closed his eyes to rest.

Back in the main room, my mother-in-law had already prepared the meal, and my two fat sons were already sitting at the table. Drool dripped from the corners of their mouths to the floor. Before Wu Jiu could get to the table, he grabbed a big piece of fat meat. stuffed in the mouth.

"Eat, eat, eat! You know how to eat every day! Sooner or later, this family will be eaten up by you!"

Madam Liu slapped the two children on the head, raised her eyebrows, and said fiercely.

"Miss, don't be angry, children are growing up, eat more and they will grow faster!"

"As a father, you know how to spoil them."

A trace of anger flashed in Mrs. Liu's eyes, and she rolled her eyes at Wu Jiu. The light was flowing and charming.

Wu Jiu sat at the table, picked up the bowls and chopsticks, and chewed the delicious food slowly.

"Mr. Sir, is today's food not to your taste?"

Liu Shi turned her head and asked Wu Jiu.

"It's very good. Just by looking at our son, you can tell how delicious the food made by my wife is. It's just because it's so delicious that I couldn't bear to eat it in one bite and want to savor it."

Wu Jiu said with a smile.

After a while, the family of four finished their meal, and the two fat boys returned to the room with their mouths full of oil.

Mrs. Liu cleared the table, went into the kitchen to wash the dishes, and came to the main room. She looked at Wu Jiu, who was playing with a big knife, and her red lips parted slightly.

"Mr. Sir~" the voice comes back a thousand times, and it sounds soft and sweet, even after a hundred steel makings it will turn into softness around the fingers.

Wu Jiu looked up and happened to meet Liu's charming eyes, which were covered with a layer of mist and her eyes were fiery. She didn't know when her clothes were loosened, revealing a large area of ​​skin.

Wu Jiu's eyes were dry, and an unknown flame rose in his heart, burning himself.

He stepped in front of Mrs. Liu, lowered his head and took a bite.

"Hmm..." Ms. Liu couldn't help herself.

Wu Jiu nibbled harder and pressed closer, wishing she could become one with Liu.

"Ouch..."

Suddenly, a glimmer of clarity flashed in his eyes, he let out a cry of pain, and walked aside holding on to his waist.

"Sir, what's the matter?"

Liu's snow-white soft hair caressed Wu Jiu's broad chest and asked with concern.

"I injured my waist while hunting yesterday, and it started to hurt whenever I moved. The pain was quite severe."

Looking at the lady in front of him who was so wet that she was almost wet, a trace of apology flashed in Wu Jiu's eyes.

"It's okay, my husband, I have to take care of my health. The whole family is supported by you~!" Madam Liu put away her messy clothes, lowered her head and massaged both sides of Wu Jiu's waist, and said softly.

"Madam, I'm so sorry. I won't accompany you tonight and will sleep alone in the utility room."

After seeing Mrs. Liu's agreement, Wu Jiu held her waist and reluctantly walked into the utility room. There was a small bed made of woven bamboo strips, which could last for one night.

As the night got darker, all the oil lamps in the house were turned off, and Wu Jiu lay quietly on the bamboo bed. After a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes bright, and he stared at the ceiling motionless.

Under the thin quilt, Wu Jiu clasped the edge of the bamboo bed tightly with both hands, and his feet trembled unnaturally. Suddenly, he lifted the quilt, stuck his fingers deep into his throat, and kept digging. After a while, a A strong feeling of vomiting came over my heart, and with a whoosh, I vomited out a large ball of rotten mixture.

It could be vaguely seen in the rotten mixture that it was the meal he had eaten in the evening, but for some reason it turned into such a weird appearance after digestion.

Wu Jiu looked at the rotten mixture still squirming on the ground with a cold expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

Under the eaves, a dark black spider the size of a fist hung in the corner, watching Wu Jiu's performance intently.

"It's really harmonious and beautiful, a happy family..."

The deep black spider is the transformation of the bone-eating demon puppet, and Lu Yuan's mind is possessed by it, and he can see everything in this family.

With Huanyin Tong's powerful ability to see through illusions, the family and even the entire village were unable to hide under his eyes, and their true colors were revealed.

In his eyes, the skinny old man lying on the bed was already a white skeleton, with black maggots swarming in his eye sockets. The two children's limbs were bulging, their bellies were rounded, and there were ten deformed mouths on their heads, chewing tirelessly. With.

And the pretty lady was made of unknown amounts of rotten flesh. Hundreds of red tentacles spread out from her body, spreading a kind of magical light powder. When she hugged the young man, all the tentacles were like leeches, clinging to the young man. The whole body was unwilling to leave for a long time.

The skinny old man was holding the young man's arm, and a faint black air was flowing out of his body, absorbing the breath from the young man's body. The two weird children kept looking at their father with hungry eyes, wishing to swallow him in one gulp.

Except for that young man, everyone else in the family is weird!

Judging from the young man's behavior, he seemed to have already seen the fact that his family was all weird.

This suddenly made Lu Yuan feel interesting. Thinking of the scene where the young man could see through the woman's true face, hug her tightly, and bite each other, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little scared.

What a cruel man...

A scarlet eyeball the size of an egg sprouted from the back of the dark black spider. The eyeball moved slightly and carefully observed the young man lying back on the wooden bed.

In Huanyin Tong's eyes, the young man's body was filled with pure Yin energy. The old man, the child, and the woman were all using various means to absorb the Yin energy from his body.

The strange thing is that despite having such a special yin energy in his body, the young man has no cultivation level and is just an ordinary human being.

Lu Yuan has long discovered that there are all kinds of strange things everywhere in the whole village. Not only his own family members may be strange, but pigs, dogs, poultry, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even the entire home he lives in may be a strange person.

In addition to the weird things that can be seen everywhere, there are also many normal human beings in the village, who are somewhat similar to young people, and all of them contain rich and pure Yin Qi.

All normal human beings are greedily absorbing the Yin Qi in their bodies in various ways.

"This is a bit interesting... a strange captive village?"

Lu Yuan became interested. At this moment, he saw the young man's eyes glance over very weakly, then immediately closed them tightly and fell into a deep sleep.

But the slightly trembling legs under the quilt showed that his current state was not as calm as it seemed.

"See me?"

Lu Yuan was curious in his heart. The young man on the wooden bed could see through the hidden strange features in a mortal body, and discovered the existence of the phantom yin pupils, as well as the rich yin energy in his body, which showed that he had extremely powerful talents in some aspects.

Coupled with his ability to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens, maybe he can be used as a tool man in the cave or even a leek?
The dark spider jumped down, and a thin piece of paper fell lightly into the utility room, falling right on the young man's chest.

The young man remained motionless. After waiting for half an hour, there was no movement outside the house. Then he opened his eyes, looked at the thin piece of paper on his chest, and reached out to take it.

There were strange patterns all over the paper, and there was a cold atmosphere, but the young man felt unusually close to him. He straightened his upper body and looked at the paper in his hand.

There were two lines of writing written on the piece of paper.

"Do you want to understand the truth about the world? Do you want to truly live?"

There are two small black characters that stand out below.

"whether"

Wu Jiu looked at the strange piece of paper in his hand, but there was no movement for a long time.

"Want to really live?" He asked himself in the bottom of his heart, no longer hesitated, stretched out his thumb and pressed hard on the word 'yes'.

In an instant, the pattern on the paper lit up, and a small white arrow appeared. There was a pulling force in a certain direction, seeming to guide Wu Jiu there.

Wu Jiu put the thin piece of paper close to her body. The next day, she said goodbye to her family. Taking advantage of the opportunity of hunting, she found an excuse and rushed to the direction on the piece of paper alone.

Half a day later, he came to a mountain forest. There was a tall wooden building sitting in the open area of ​​the mountain forest.

There are three pale characters written on the top of the wooden building: Xianyuan Tower.

Wu Jiu was keenly aware that this tall wooden building was extraordinary, but he had no way out now. Even if there was only a glimmer of possibility, he wanted to try his best to seize it.

Want to truly live.

With half of fear and half of expectation, Wu Jiu stretched out her cold arms and pushed open the door of the wooden building.

Entering the door, there is a very spacious hall inside. The hall seems a bit empty, except for a middle-aged man with a long beard sitting in the middle, looking at him with a smile.

"Welcome to the Xianyuan Building, little friends."

The middle-aged man with a long beard smiled while stroking his palms. In Wu Jiu's eyes, this middle-aged man with a long beard who looked like an immortal had huge gaps between his skin and bones, which was very uncoordinated. There seemed to be something hidden in his body. Horror exists.

Upstairs, although he couldn't see anything, Wu Jiu could clearly feel that there were dozens of strong and cold auras above.

"Chief Immortal, did you leave this piece of paper?"

Wu Jiu took out a thin piece of paper from his chest. Although the bearded middle-aged man in front of him looked extremely abnormal, according to Wu Jiu's perception, he was much more pleasing to the eye than the monsters at home.

"Yes, I left it for you." Lu Yuan said with a smile.

During this gap, his mind had already returned to the main mountain peak. He was extremely satisfied with the light group reward brought by Wu Jiu, and another high-quality leek appeared!

"Then..." Wu Jiu was a little scared for a moment, fearing that after asking the questions on the piece of paper, she would get a disappointing result.

"So, do you want to really live?"

Lu Yuan asked this question on his behalf.

"Do you want to really live?"

This question was too heavy for Wu Jiu. He stared blankly ahead and muttered to himself.

He thought of his home, and the most painful thing every day was the moment before returning home. In order not to let those monsters see that he was strange, he had to try his best to disguise himself.

The father who gave birth to him and raised him turned into a white skeleton that could only absorb his own breath. At first, the two children could still feel that they had some of their own blood, but as they grew up, It has been completely reduced to two terrifying monsters.

Those are his own flesh and blood, why did he look like this?
Not to mention the woman who acted so charming but actually made her vomit just by looking at her. In order to prevent her from suspecting her, he endured great injustice and had sex with a pile of rotten meat.

Why does this make him not want to really live?

As he thought about it, a hatred that almost turned into substance emerged in Wu Jiu's eyes.

"I want! Immortal! I want to truly live!"

　I deleted some to clear the ban...
