I will bury the gods

Chapter 148 Master and Apprentice in the Candlelight

The little girl introduced herself enthusiastically. She said that her name was Zhuo He. She had lived for more than 200 years, almost as long as the Immortal Kingdom. Although she was imprisoned here all year round, she was well-known.

"Are you curious why I am still so short after living for more than 200 years?" Zhuo He asked.

"Hmm...maybe." Lin Shouxi was not very curious.

"Because there is a devil hidden in my body, it is eating my body every moment, and I am getting smaller and smaller like this, this ghost is terrible, even Luo Chu'e dare not do anything to me .” Zhuo He joked with a smile, not knowing the truth of his words.

The little girl's enthusiasm made it difficult for Lin Shouxi to adapt. What's more, he felt that the little girl in front of him was very dangerous... The unspeakable danger was like a drop of water hanging from a frying pan.

"You and Luo Chu'e are enemies? What enmity do you have with her?"

Lin Shouxi remained vigilant, he was not sure whether the other people in the cage of this giant building were inmates, or the people sent by Luo Chu'e to monitor them.

"Is there a reason to have a feud with Luo Chu'e? Except for those who really have no backbone, there is no one who doesn't hate Luo Chu'e."

Zhuo He said lightly: "We should live under the light and enjoy the admiration and love of the world, instead of experiencing the unsurpassable pain in the dark and dark hell."

"You want to help me?"

"Yeah." Zhuo He nodded and said, "Not only me, but other people will try their best to help you."

She smiled and added: "Don't worry, we are all good people. After all, only good people will be locked in prison."

Zhuo He was smiling, her expression moved slightly, and she looked behind Lin Shouxi, "Hey, she is a beautiful sister!"

Chu Yingchan followed the sound and walked over. She stood behind Lin Shouxi, looking at this small and exquisite girl, she was also shocked. She had heard the legend of the elf girl dancing in the palm of the king in the past. If the legend is true, maybe it is just That's it.

Zhuo He stared at Chu Yingchan, her gloomy pupils became brighter, and her face revealed an intoxicated look:

"Wow, my sister is really beautiful. Is this a living beauty? I'm so envious. It looks like sunshine walking on the earth, and like stars falling into the ocean... For more than 200 years, I only I read it in a book."

Zhuo He was bouncing around in her cell, trying to see more clearly, she kept praising Chu Yingchan: "This is the real beauty, I think Luo Chu'e is simply a beauty compared to her sister." A crow that grooms itself every day."

Before Chu Yingchan could say a word, this little girl who had never met before caught her and boasted fiercely. She was at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond.

"My master's age is not even a fraction of yours, why do you have one sister after another?" Lin Shouxi said with a smile, wanting to ease the embarrassment.

"Who said that sisters must be judged by age?" Zhuo He said with a smile.

"Hmm...what else?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"For example, this elder brother married a 16-year-old girl as his wife. After a while, he changed his mind and married this beautiful sister. Although the beautiful sister is older, what should I call the regular wife? "Zhuo He asked vividly.

Lin Shouxi and Chu Yingchan looked at each other with weird expressions. They knew that she was just giving an example to sophistry, but they always felt that this girl was alluding to something.

"Hmm... sister?" Chu Yingchan tentatively replied.

"Wow, my sister's awareness is so high." Zhuo He praised.

Chu Yingchan frowned slightly, always feeling that she had slipped into some kind of trap.

"What's the difference between primary and secondary?" Lin Shouxi shook his head.

Zhuo He and Chu Yingchan looked at him at the same time.

"You are still more enlightened." Zhuo He couldn't help but said.

"What I mean is that devotion is the most important thing in marriage. If you have a wife, you should stop thinking about your sisters." Lin Shouxi said sternly.

Chu Yingchan nodded slightly, agreeing with him.

"You are really..." Zhuo He looked at him, hesitant to speak.

"Open-minded?"

"No, it's youth and ignorance!" Zhuo He shrugged.

"Miss He, stop making such jokes. This fairy and I are not a Taoist companion, she is my master... Okay, let's get down to business." Lin Shouxi didn't want to continue this boring topic.

Chu Yingchan stood dignifiedly on one side, her head was about to point, but the red mark between her brows flickered inappropriately. This red mark seemed to be a more chattering mouth than Zhuo He, criticizing the hypocrisy of their master and apprentice.

Chu Yingchan had no choice but to scold Lin Shouxi with a straight face and hit his palm with a ruler. The red seal finally subsided.

Zhuo He didn't make fun of them because of the absurdity of this scene, she stared at the red seal and murmured: "This, could it be..."

"The Seal of Slaanesh." Chu Yingchan said.

"Sure enough, it's this thing. It seems that Luo Chu'e is really jealous of you. Hmph, this female devil punishes others with sins every day, but she herself is a condensed body of sins. How ironic." Zhuo He shook his head.

"Is there a way to break this curse?" Lin Shouxi asked immediately.

"No, this is one of the seven original sin curses of the Immortal Kingdom. It is engraved on the regular stone slab in the deepest part of Purgatory Valley, and only Luo Chu'e can decipher it." Zhuo He stared at the red seal that danced like fire, His expression also became serious.

"Is there nothing you can do?" Lin Shouxi asked.

Zhuo He thought for a long time, and finally said: "Mr. Gong may have a way."

"Mr. Gong?" Lin Shouxi had heard this name many times, "Who the hell is he?"

"Mr. Gong is the real founder of this immortal country."

Zhuo He explained: "We are all true immortals. We are born as true immortals. Mortals lose their souls after death, but true immortals are not. Some of our souls are collected by big families and Shenshan sects, ready to be injected into new bodies at any time to gain new life. , but the souls of most of the dead true immortals are drifting away from the dust, helpless, until they really wear out and die."

"The descendants of true immortals hold high positions and powers in Shenshan, why did you end up like this?" Lin Shouxi asked.

Zhuo He didn't answer directly, she asked: "In your eyes, what is a real fairy like? Well... just tell the truth."

"Arrogance, arrogance, regard blood as the most precious thing, and regard others as barbarians." Lin Shouxi said bluntly.

"Well." Zhuo He was not angry, but praised: "The summary is very good, it seems that you have met many real immortals... You see, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil, true immortals Is it not surprising that you ended up like this?"

With a smile on her face, she made up nonsense reasons, and said: "Mr. Gong is sympathetic to us, he wants to help us create a brand new home, but he didn't expect that he was deceived by Luo Chu'e, and Luo Chu'e had already fallen at some point , She usurped Mr. Gong's power, imprisoned him, and turned this undead kingdom, which was supposed to be the heaven of true immortal souls, into our city of disaster..."

"Mr. Gong..." Chu Yingchan bit her lower lip and muttered.

"Did Master think of anything?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"300 years ago, there was indeed a famous family near Shenshou Mountain, named Gongjia."

Chu Yingchan recalled what her mother had said to her, "My mother's family was ruined when she was a child, and the Gong family took her in to practice swords with the young lady of the Gong family, um...but then the Cangbi King attacked her. The wall of the gods, the Gong family was the first to be destroyed, and they were devastated."

Mother told her many things about the palace family, among which the most bad things were about the eldest lady of the palace family. It is said that the young lady of the palace family was impulsive and domineering since she was a child, like a tiger in the forest and a crocodile in the water. The playful girl of my life.

Chu Yingchan also asked her mother about the specific story about the eldest lady of the Gong family, but her mother was vague and unwilling to say anything more, as if there was a complicated grievance between them.

Zhuo He has never been outside, so she doesn't know about the outside world, she just said: "In short, Mr. Gong is a very good person, since you are his choice, then you are our friends, and it is only right to help you !"

When Zhuo He mentioned Mr. Gong, his eyes also sparkled.

"Okay, okay, you guys rest in peace for a while, and I will brainstorm with the inmates to see if we can think of more ways to help you." Zhuo He said: "The people who can be locked here are all extraordinary talents. Maybe there is a good way!"

Lin Shouxi finished chatting with this little girl, but he couldn't feel at ease.

The turning house was a constant reminder of the passage of time, and yet they were stuck here with nowhere to go.

So during the interval of thinking, they really became a pair of master and apprentice.

The two sat opposite each other in the dim room, lighting a lamp. The flame floated on the deep golden oil surface, illuminating their faces and clothes. Before they thought of a suitable way, neither of them took the initiative again. To mention the Curse of Slaanesh, just talk about swords and spells.

They were unexpectedly engaged in chatting.

In the past, they were somewhat unfamiliar with each other. They were like a tiger and a deer forced together by the master waving a big stick, and they were given the target of 'must give birth to a little unicorn'.

On most of the topics, they can find a common language, and occasionally there will be differences and disputes. At this time, Chu Yingchan will take out the ruler that symbolizes the dignity of the teacher. She has a beautiful fairy dimple, which cannot be discussed The tone said: "Listen to Master."

Lin Shouxi looked at the black ruler and didn't argue, just smiled helplessly and said 'yes'.

They chatted about mind skills, swordsmanship, stories and legends of their hometown, gossip about Yunkong Mountain, and their views on magic and Tao...

Their chat may be an insoluble escape from the curse of Slaanesh, but it also unexpectedly dissolved the barriers between each other. Chu Yingchan's "disciple" yelled more and more fluently, and Lin Shouxi's "master" yelled more and more pleasingly.

"Are you talking after me on purpose?" Chu Yingchan chatted with him so naturally that she became suspicious.

"If I want to deliberately follow you, don't I have to know what you like to hear."

"Well, that's right..."

"If we can get out safely, I will definitely recognize you as a master." Lin Shouxi said.

Chu Yingchan stretched out her fingers to touch his lips, "Don't say such things."

Generally speaking, those who speak like this in the book usually do not end well.

"Does Master still believe this?" Lin Shouxi said with a smile.

"When people are at a loss and helpless, they will always look for something to believe in." Chu Yingchan held the ruler, patted her palm lightly, and said majesticly: "Well... say something auspicious, blessed Tell Master what to say."

"Words of blessing..."

Lin Shouxi thought for a while, and said, "Poor Master, something terrible happened?"

"Ok?"

Chu Yingchan was slightly startled, and then realized, "Indeed... I really wish you well."

Chu Yingchan found it interesting, thought for a moment, and then said: "A lovely master met a hateful apprentice."

"what?"

Lin Shouxi looked at Chu Yingchan's smiling face, was stunned for a while, and said with a wry smile, "I originally thought that only a little demon girl like Mu Shijing would talk like this, but I didn't expect a pure fairy like Master to be like this."

"Hmm... can't it be?" Chu Yingchan asked.

"It's fine, it's fine, but the master who learns bad things will be severely punished." Lin Shouxi said.

"There's no such thing as a bad student...what you tell the teacher is nothing more than the truth."

Chu Yingchan pursed her lips, straightened her clothes, and said with a sense of mastery: "Don't quibble, before I met you and Xiaohe, I never failed to slay demons and demons. Desirable things came one after another."

"Is Master blaming us?"

"if not?"

"But I heard that before this, you were often beaten by the master. If the master is really perfect, why should the master beat you? Could it be that the master made a mistake on purpose..." Lin Shouxi looked at her with strange eyes.

"Presumptuous." Chu Yingchan gritted her silver teeth slightly, "It's just because Master...well, Master is strict."

"Hey, a frank apprentice meets a sophistry master." Lin Shouxi said helplessly.

They talked to Bai Zhu together, as if that lovely and bright girl would bless them from afar in Yunkong Mountain.

The two talked to each other for a while, after all, Chu Yingchan was not as good as Lin Shouxi, who was eloquent, and soon ran out of words. She sat there with a ruler in her hand, her beautiful cheeks were illuminated by the fire, and she had a little girl's unique charm. capricious.

"Stretch out your hand." She resorted to her trump card.

Lin Shouxi wanted to surrender, but it was too late, and he was hit by the palm of the hand a few more times. It didn't hurt, but it was more like Chu Yingchan was announcing the status between them.

The candle flames connected them, and it seemed that they would never burn out. They got a moment of peace in the light of the fireworks.

Small talk is by no means a long-term thing. Once they are silent, the messy thoughts in their hearts will rush up and block their subsequent words.

Not long after, the knock on the window sounded again.

Lin Shouxi saw Zhuo He again.

This extremely petite girl took out a piece of paper and entrusted it to him seriously, saying that it was the result of brainstorming by the inmates.

Every room in the prison is separated, and it is very difficult for them to communicate, and they can only pass through one small iron window after another.

Difficult as it is, the result of their discussion did not help him.

Like Lin Shouxi's thinking, their thinking is also to break the established rules.

In this line of thinking, all the inmates showed their talents and provided many unconstrained ideas, which made Lin Shouxi wonder if Zhuo He was here to waste their time.

Some inmates said that they wanted to create an unprecedented new color and paint it all over their bodies. They suddenly took off their clothes when performing a dance for Luo Chu'e, and made her lose her sense of Dao with colors that did not belong to this world. Some inmates made a long speech It is argued that the world's confinement of people comes from "bends". We are left in the world by many bends in the world. As long as these bends can be smoothed out, we can fly in the daytime and go to any place we want. Below is a large A pile of digital derivations that ordinary people can't understand.

The only reliable way is for Chu Yingchan to return to the Temple of the Black Emperor ten days later and blow out the candle of 'desire'. By then, the desire for Slaanesh in her body has reached an extremely terrifying level. It is even possible that the manifestation of lust is powerful enough to destroy the undead kingdom.

But these ideas have not been realized for the time being.

Chu Yingchan also looked at them one by one, and finally just shook her head.

"Everyone is very enthusiastic. It seems that they have indeed suffered from Luo Chu'e for a long time." Chu Yingchan said.

"Well. It's a pity that if they wait for their ideas to come true, we're afraid our children will be born." Lin Shouxi shook his head and said.

Although it was just a joke, Chu Yingchan's expression couldn't help but freeze. She wanted to reprimand her, but soon realized that this might really become the reality they must face.

If they couldn't escape, if they were always imprisoned, what would Luo Chu'e, a witch, do to them?

"If you really have a child, what's the name of the child?" Chu Yingchan followed his words in order to show that she could take a joke.

Now it was Lin Shouxi's turn to be stunned.

At this point, silence is admitting defeat, Lin Shouxi thought for a while and said, "Let's call him Lin Nianhe."

"Oh."

Chu Yingchan responded indifferently, with a cold expression on her face.

"It's just a joke, why bother?" Lin Shouxi felt that her emotions were not right.

"Yeah, it's just a joke, and I don't care." Chu Yingchan lowered her head, looking like she didn't care, she stood up, no smile on her cold face, "Okay, if you can't make up your mind, first Let’s practice, if there is something you don’t understand, I will teach you as a teacher.”

Lin Shouxi hadn't really practiced meditation for a long, long time.

Under Chu Yingchan's urging, Lin Shouxi began to meditate.

In the history of Shenshan, there are many practitioners who meditate on themselves after being imprisoned, and suddenly realize that this imprisoning disaster may not be all bad for him.

The first thing he practiced was still the Acacia Art.

Chu Yingchan sat on the side quietly watching him practice.

She has also read that ancient scroll and knows the principle of this kind of exercise. She also finds it interesting to watch Lin Shouxi practice now, so she can't help but meditate on the key points of the mental method. After a while, she sat next to Lin Shouxi in a strange way, and began to practice with him. Lin Shouxi is yang, and Chu Yingchan is yin. They seem to be sitting at the two ends of a yin and yang fish, their hearts and minds agree with each other, and they gradually enter into a certain resonance.

After an unknown amount of time, the two opened their eyes at the same time, their eyes met, and their eyes were full of surprise.

They find understanding.
