The Right Protector of the Demon Sect is reborn

Huo Sui opened his eyes slightly when he heard Lou Xinzhou's words. The secret realm will have checkpoint tests, and the content and form of the test are determined by the guardian. He actually appeared in the sound realm?

"What level is it?"

"Roughly, we are asked to stop Linhai Village from offering sacrifices and eliminate demons and save people."

Lou Xinzhou answered very simply, and at the same time observed Huo Sui's expression. The latter didn't know what he thought of, his eyes were a little wandering, he looked up at the sky, and was silent for a long time.

"Elder, if you are willing, I would like to know the true ending of Linhai Village?"

Seeing that Huo Sui didn't speak for a long time, Lou Xinzhou asked slowly.

The level test in the secret realm is just an illusion created by the realm guardian using real events as a reference background. How things develop depends entirely on how the people in the realm act. Lou Xinzhou knows that the Qingming after the disaster is not the final outcome of Linhai Village. .

Seeing someone looking over, Lou Xinzhou first told her what he had experienced in the secret realm. Huo Sui listened to her quietly, and some things from the past gradually emerged in front of his eyes. After a long time, Lou Xinzhou finished speaking before he spoke.

"It's nothing different, but since Junior Sister wants to listen, it doesn't hurt if I talk about it."

"Living sacrifices were indeed the first ones proposed by the Huo family. Living sacrifices have lasted for more than a hundred years. Basically, a divine messenger will be sacrificed once every ten years. Children aged eleven or twelve are most suitable."

Perhaps hundreds of years had passed since the incident, and Huo Sui's voice was calm and gentle, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"That year, I was originally chosen, but the village favored boys over girls, and my father and mother-in-law were not willing to push me out, so they replaced Chu Qi."

"I didn't know that Master and the others would save people at a living sacrifice. Seeing that Chu Qi was really scared, I stole the key and opened the door on the last night and let her out. But I didn't expect that she would run away on her own in the end. return."

"So..." Lou Xinzhou couldn't help but interrupt softly, "Did everyone survive in the end? Because Uncle Zhengyin saved people?"

A gust of wind was gently picked up, and the fog rose a little. The bridge was covered with white, and there was the sound of water flowing under the bridge.

Lou Xinzhou felt that it was a little too quiet and a little too noisy.

The quieter the person is, the more deafening the flowing water is.

Huo Sui broke the panicking silence with one last long sigh.

"Yes, except for one person."

"Who?"

"After Master saved me, the mermaid went crazy. At that time, she only had out-of-body cultivation. Later, she gradually became invincible. In order to save me, Chu Qi jumped..."

When Lou Xinzhou heard this, she couldn't hide her surprise. In the secret realm, she had seen Huo Chuqi's memory. The twelve-year-old girl always thought that she had escaped, which was why her younger brother was chosen as the envoy. She felt almost no guilt in her heart. She could not stand it, but was suppressed by boundless fear. It turned out that in the end, she stood up bravely.

"..."

Lou Xinzhou didn't know what to say for a moment. It had been over a hundred years, and no matter what he said, it was in vain, so he had to ask something else.

"Did the mermaid die in the end?"

"Death by self-immolation."

······

Huo Sui and Lou Xinzhou chatted for a long time. Lou Xinzhou had always thought that the ancient books on his table were for resurrecting Zhengyin. After finally asking, he found out that those books about life and death were all for the salvation of the souls of the dead.

It's just that Huo Sui has been studying it for three hundred years, but he can only save ten people.

It is difficult for ordinary people to see the souls of the dead, and Huo Sui can only try to save them when they are attached to the bones and emerge from the ground. However, the chance of success is hopelessly low, one in a hundred.

The Gule War claimed the lives of tens of thousands of people, and they were extremely resentful. Only a few of them were willing to be transformed, and the rest were unwilling to leave the Bone Tomb even if their souls were devoured by fire.

"Master used his life to create the formation. She only had to sacrifice one person, but the great demon Gou Qi was too cunning and secretly changed the angle of the formation. Once the formation was opened, ten thousand people were annihilated in an instant."

"They are not willing to leave, let alone Master." At this point, Huo Sui shook his head and smiled bitterly, "She will always take all the blame on herself, just like the death of Huo Chuqi."

It's just that Huo Sui spent a long, long time over the years, but he couldn't find Zhengyin's soul. No one could imagine how desperate he was. He hoped to save her and end her pain, so he hoped to find Zhengyin's soul. She, but he was reluctant to send her away because Zhengyin had only been his master for less than twenty years, so he didn't want to find her.

"Uncle Zhengyin hopes you will continue to practice."

After a long time, Lou Xinzhou said slowly, her tone was firm, not like a twelve-year-old child at all.

When Huo Sui heard what she said, he lowered his head. No one knew what he was thinking. Since Zhengyin's death, he really hadn't practiced at all. Twelve disciples and twenty Nascent Souls. What a dazzling talent. , his whole life has been ruined by him like this, no one can persuade her.

Back then, when the master was building a tomb in the mountains, he was the only one who asked for soul transfer. He guarded a small wooden house for more than three hundred years and studied the spirits of dead and dead day and night. Finally, asking for the soul scroll gave him hope, but he did not expect that everything would end in the end. It's false, leaving only stronger unwillingness and despair.

Where is relief so easy?

"Elder should continue to practice. If she continues to be so stubborn, no one can save her."

Lou Xinzhou knew that what he said just now had no effect, so he changed his mind and persuaded again.

Huo Sui finally reacted when he heard these words. Lou Xinzhou could clearly see that his body stiffened and then relaxed. After waiting for a long time, a weak word "ok" came out.

The sun cut through the fog, and a ray of light gently touched Huo Sui's body. Lou Xinzhou looked at him and raised his head. There were some other emotions in his eyes, a sad, but never giving up look.

After seeing Huo Sui off, Lou Xinzhou returned to the house alone. She couldn't calm down for a long time. She had experienced the despair of losing an important person, and she felt sad for Huo Sui empathetically. However, besides helping him bring back the spiritual scroll, she could not do anything else. Nothing can be done.

At night, Lou Xinzhou went to find Zhengyin again. The white soul stood in front of the house, with a little surprise in her foggy eyes. She couldn't close her mouth for a long time. When she saw Lou Xinzhou coming, she spoke softly.

"Appease him and start practicing. Thank you."

Lou Xinzhou shook his head, but then asked other questions.

"Uncle Wenling belongs to me, how could I not know that it has been damaged a long time ago?"

"..."

Zhengyin was a little shocked after hearing Lou Xinzhou's words. She didn't expect that a twelve-year-old child could think so deeply. She spoke slowly after a long time.

"I just want to use this method to make him give up. It's been too painful for both him and me after three hundred years."

At that moment, Lou Xinzhou seemed to suddenly understand something. Huo Sui had spent three hundred years trying to make Zhengyin die, but for Zhengyin, the death of thousands of creatures in this burial ground was in vain because of her. They won't leave even half a step, one tries his best to search, the other tries his best to hide, and neither one gives in to the other.

"..."

Lou Xinzhou deeply felt a sense of powerlessness, despair, and even breathlessness.

The moonlight was pale and the wind passed without a trace.
