Bulwark of Light

Chapter 961 Sick seedlings (second update)

Yao Jin spoke with a hint of sarcasm.

Of course Song Ci could hear it.

It's just that he grinned and said: "What's this called? I didn't catch up with this kind of time in the early years..."

"Ok?"

As soon as this remark came out, several holy inquisitors were already at war around the temple.

"Sorry, don't get me wrong."

Song Ci quickly apologized, his face full of sincerity: "I have been ill these years, recuperating in Qingzhong Cemetery, and it is really inconvenient to travel across the ocean."

"..."

Yao Jin has no expression on his face. According to the file, Song Ci is very good at fighting, with top-notch physical skills, but lacks in intelligence.

When I saw it today, it was not the case.

This guy is not stupid.

"Brother Lu, why haven't I heard of it before?" Yao Jin looked at the thin young man.

After wiping his face with [Ghost Veil] and adding [Shenyin Cloak] to cover his breath, Gu Shen just entered Guangming City in a dignified way.

Although an experiment has been done with Mr. Bai Shu.

But from the moment you set foot on Xizhou.

Gu Shen was still a little uneasy... After all, the bright fire and the dark fire have an unusual connection, if he is induced, it will be bad.

But now he can relax.

All the way to the temple, there is nothing unusual.

"Nagano is full of talented people, and I am just a green leaf."

Gu Shen said humbly: "I am good at 'healing'. I helped Brother Song a little favor in the early years. I happened to meet him on the way and was brought here. Lu was fascinated by Guangming City and only wanted to visit the temple. The meaning of living... I wonder which elder you are on the seat of the temple?"

This explanation is reasonable.

After hearing Gu Shen express his longing for Guangming City, the gazes of those believers became much friendlier to him.

"I am not an elder."

Yao Jin shook his head, and said gently: "My surname is Yao, Yao Jin. All visitors are guests, you are welcome, the temple will arrange accommodation for you... The 'fire trial' will start in a few days, and I still have someone to receive, I won't talk to you two more."

He gestured with his eyes.

The two holy judges immediately greeted them.

……

……

The temple arranged a fairly spacious courtyard for Song Ci. The layout of this City of Faith in Xizhou is somewhat similar to the Snow Forbidden City. It is said that the origins of Guangming City and Snow Forbidden City are quite similar. The architectural outline of the "urban area" exists, and the Church of Light did not destroy it, but built around the "core landmark".

at this point.

It is very similar to [Snow Cage].

The two "lands of miracles" at the core of Guangming City are Sunset Mountain and Red Lake.

Those believers, the reason why they worship so much, step by step, is because they want to see these two places of miracles.

Many people come to Guangming City every year.

It's a pity... Among them, only a very small number of people can admire the miracle.

Those who freely enter and exit are either those favored by the gods, or the high-level people of the temple.

"A huge enchantment enveloped the 'Sunset Mountain' and the 'Red Lake'."

Gu Shen was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, his gaze was looking directly at the "blazing sun" in the sky, "It's really unprecedented that the barrier of the temple surrounds at least half of the Bright City."

"Don't you know? The entire Guangming City is the 'Divine Domain'."

Song Ci was bored, with his hands on the back of his head, dozing off on a recliner under the shade of a tree, "If there hadn't been a 'Sealed Artifact', every word we said now, every word, the God of Light would be able to hear... just like Nagano .”

The first time he came to this courtyard, Gu Shen arranged the patterns...

In fact, the formation pattern is not very useful, if the God of Light wants to hear it, the formation pattern can be broken in an instant.

But this situation probably also means that his identity as "Pluto" has been exposed.

"You can listen, but you don't have to."

Gu Shen said indifferently: "Mr. Bai Shu can hear the voice of the people in the Snow Forbidden City of Nagano, and there are more winds, cicadas, and frogs, but which fire smelter would do such a thing?"

After becoming the seat of God.

What the extraordinary people in his God's Domain say every day is really no different from the so-called cicadas.

If you listen too much, you will only feel noisy.

"This small courtyard...it's not bad to live in, but it's a bit sunny."

Song Ci turned over and muttered, "It's a pity that we can't see the so-called 'Sunset Mountain' and 'Red Lake'. Gu Shen, what are your plans next? When are you going to kill Wu Tuo?"

Chasing all the way from Nagano to the port of Southampton City, Gu Shen has not yet found any clues about "Uto".

"Not urgent."

Gu Shen asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with Wu Tuo: "What do you think of that man just now?"

"That person just now..."

Song Ci frowned, trying to recall: "Yao..."

Gu Shen said: "Yao Jin."

"That sick man looks very weak, but his mental strength is quite strong, and he seems to be close to the title level."

Song Ci stroked his chin, and said, "If you want to kill him, it will take some effort. It will take me about ten seconds to do it."

Gu Shen shook his head: "You can't kill him."

"Oh?"

Song Ci became interested, sat up and said with a smile, "Do you think I'm not strong enough?"

"Do not."

Gu Shen said seriously: "It's not that you are not strong enough, nor is he strong... If you fight him, you will win, there is no doubt about it. But this is Guangming City."

"Mr. Bai Shu helped you erase most of the 'Brightness', but you are an [Apostle] after all."

Gu Shen said: "If you have been in contact with the bright fire, you can't change it. This is an established fact and the reason why you can't kill him. With the temple's way of doing things, there must be countless ways to suppress the [Apostle]."

Song Ci fell silent upon hearing this.

indeed……

After he stepped into Guangming City, he felt an inexplicable hotness in his heart. This place seemed to have an extremely strong attraction for him.

That is the normal reaction after smelting tokens.

No matter how much he resisted, he couldn't change... the fact that he had become an apostle.

When you come to Guangming City, you will have a sense of belonging.

"Other forces are trying to please the apostles."

Gu Shen continued: "But Guangming City must be an exception, because they frantically search for [undead] and induce [undead] to become apostles... For such foreigners who are attracted by the bright dream, the temple cannot really feel at ease. Restraining the means of keeping the bottom of the box is a reasonable operation."

"unlucky."

Song Ci poohed at the corner.

He asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly ask him?"

"The reception of guests in the temple has always been in charge of 'Yuan Yang'. This elder ranks seniority and has a high status, but his actual power is average. He just entered the temple very early, so he is ranked second."

Gu Shen said slowly: "However, the major powers have visited recently, but Yuan Yang is nowhere to be seen."

"Didn't the person surnamed Yao say that Yuan Yang has something to do temporarily..."

Song Ci was taken aback when he said this.

Being in a high position and having no power in one's hand, one often needs to be responsible for such insignificant things.

But even this kind of reception is unnecessary for him.

"I guess Yuan Yang probably made a mistake."

Gu Shen closed his eyes and mentally browsed through the densely packed information posts in Xinhu, which were all the files that Chu Ling had collected for him: "According to my investigation results, there has been no news from Yuan Yang since a week ago... ...Do you think he has anything to do with the case of Yinghai Dongse's family?"

"It's really possible."

Song Ci's expression became solemn: "Tagse was hiding two or thirty years ago, and had secret contacts with the people in the temple. Calculated based on this time, Yuan Yang seems to be the person behind the scenes who instructed the Dongse family to cultivate their beliefs."

"There are many senior people in the temple, but he is the only one who has completely 'disappeared' recently."

Gu Shen smiled and said, "I heard that there is a secret prison in Guangming City, and I don't know if Yuan Yang was sent there."

"It shouldn't be so much of a crime, right?"

Song Ci murmured: "But what does this have to do with Yao Jin?"

"Do you think Yuan Yang is the kind of person who can send out two abandoned sons and sacrifice an entire dark line in advance?"

Gu Shen said: "This old guy has disappeared, the person who picked up Wu Tuo could not be him."

The follow-up layout of Jiankou Islands is obviously taken over by someone.

Straightforward and decisive.

Song Ci had a headache and said, "You suspect... Yao Jin is the real behind-the-scenes person?"

"Yuan Yang disappeared, someone has to do the work he should do."

"Of course... there is no evidence for Yao Jin's suspicion, it's more of an intuition guide."

"The way that guy is sitting in the wheelchair reminds me of an 'acquaintance' from a long time ago." Gu Shen said quietly: "These sick people who like to show their weakness to the enemy are often more ruthless than anyone else. If he seizes the opportunity, there will be no room for turning around."

"The 'acquaintance' you're talking about, do you mean Gu Lushen, the leader of the Gu family's new sect back then?"

Song Ci also remembered a vague image.

"It makes sense..."

He nodded approvingly, and then muttered: "But why do I feel that you seem to be such a sick person?"

He looked at Gu Shen, although this guy didn't use a wheelchair, he had the same perception as Yao Jin.

This skinny body, which looks extremely weak, is extremely deceptive.

"I was forced to do so." Gu Shen said helplessly, "After six years of starvation under the sea of ​​ice, how can it grow back overnight?"

Song Ci sat upright and asked, "If Yao Jin is behind the scenes, what are you going to do?"

See Gu Shen pondering.

Song Ci said seriously: "If you think this guy is not a good thing, I'll go and kill him right away. Is this once and for all? Even if you fail, you can still try out the countermeasures of the temple. No matter how you look at it, it's not a loss. .”

"You bastard, don't always think about fighting!"

Gu Shen sighed, and said earnestly: "This trip to Guangming City, you should be honest, your purpose is to go to the end in the 'Fire Trial'... As for killing 'Wu Tuo', it is a matter of time." I don't need you to do anything about me."

"But……"

Song Ci hesitated to speak.

"This matter is not as complicated as you think."

Gu Shen said in a deep voice: "We know that Wu Tuo is hiding here, and Wu Tuo also knows that someone will come to kill him... Some things don't need to be said, everyone knows each other well. You just suffered a dark loss in Ying Hai and lost so many dark money, don't you want to take this opportunity to get back a little bit of fame?"

"what do you mean?"

"Just wait patiently for a few days. In a few days, Wu Tuo will come out by himself."

Gu Shen said slowly: "Compared to him being assassinated, the thing that Guangming City doesn't want to happen is... that no one comes to kill him."
