To Raise a Soul

The evil cultivator died, the ghost was fixed, and nothingness had any scruples, and immediately rushed towards a small door in the corner of the box, with a surge of spiritual energy in his body, he slammed his claws at that small door.

Wow, the sound of the barrier being broken.

The small door shattered, revealing a staircase straight down behind it.

"The arrested monk is inside." Yin Yan, who had been quietly watching Yu Zhen's fight, stepped forward in time and walked to the downward entrance.

Without saying a word, Yu Zhen put away the soul-calling flag and the ghost, bent down to pick up nothingness, and walked down the stairs.

Swah——

Before going down two steps, a gust of wind blows towards my face.

Yu Zhen's eyes sharpened, and he blocked the mahogany sword in his hand. The golden light of merit and virtue spread out on his body as if he didn't want money, illuminating all the evil things in the dark underground.

Bang!

A sharp hidden weapon the size of two fingers of an adult was blocked by the mahogany sword and fell to the ground, leaving a bloodstain.

Another magic weapon!

Seeing the appearance of the hidden weapon on the ground, Yu Zhen's expression became more and more ugly. He stretched out his hand to suck it up and burned it directly with the spiritual fire, forcing himself to calm down cautiously, stop rushing around, and slow down and be careful.

The stairs were not deep, and after walking more than [-] steps, they reached the bottom. As expected, several waves of hidden weapons came along the way, and Yu Zhen blocked them one by one.

When he reached the bottom, a hidden formation suddenly lit up, almost locking Yu Zhen, but thanks to the reminder from nothingness, he narrowly escaped.

"The magic weapon, the sleepy spirit array, and this room full of grieving ghosts... These are definitely not something that one or two evil cultivators can produce." Yu Zhen's face sank like water, and he waved his hand to violently break the formation under his feet, and took a step forward Stepped into this underground dark room.

Under the golden light of meritorious deeds, the grieving ghosts and ghosts who had gathered in the room seemed to have seen cats and mice, shivering in the farthest corner from Yu Zhen, and tied the middle of the ground to a thick black iron chain shelf The two wounded and unconscious monks were revealed.

Yu Zhen saw the person he was looking for, but he didn't rush forward directly. Instead, he sensed the surrounding carefully, and after making sure that there were no more traps, he first waved away the ghosts in the room, and then walked to the iron gate. Before the chain shelf.

The condition of the monk who was tied up looked very bad. His breath was weak, his spiritual energy was broken, and his body was surging with evil spirit. Although he was not injured, it was obvious that his cultivation base had been severely damaged. If it wasn't for the support of the golden seal of blessing, his dantian would have collapsed long ago up.

"Part of their cultivation has been sucked away, and like Magu, they have been used by evil cultivators as containers for releasing evil spirits and sins." Yin Yan stepped forward again at the right time, observed them briefly, and then waved his hands to let them enter the safety with spiritual energy in a deep sleep state, then looked sideways at Yu Zhen, and asked, "What are you going to do, senior?"

This was the first time when the two of them went out to deal with matters together, Yin Yan asked Yu Zhen for his opinion and asked him what to do.

Yu Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then checked the situation of the two monks with a frown, glanced sideways at Yin Yan, silently took over the dominant position he handed over, and said: "The movement of Tianlei is too loud, the evil I killed Xiu is probably just a small guy, most of the real big troops have already left, I didn't see Magu, it is very likely that Magu is following them."

Yin Yan nodded and continued to look at him quietly.

"We must save people first. Their situation is not good, so we can't delay any longer." Yu Zhen gradually found the feeling of being the leader. After thinking for a few seconds, he released San'er and Xin Xiaoxiao, and ordered : "You guys go meet up with Magu, and by the way, check if there is any escape route in this underground bar, and look for traces of other evil cultivators."

San'er and Xin Xiaoxiao took orders and left.

Yu Zhen looked at nothingness again, nothingness flicked its tail and looked at him expectantly.

"The nothingness stays here, I have to help these two monks get rid of the evil spirit, and I need someone to protect the law." Yu Zhen looked at Yin Yan after speaking, hesitating.

Yin Yan asked at the right time: "What does senior want me to do?"

It's strange that the apprentice ordered the master to do things.

Yu Zhen was a little awkward, paused for a few seconds to suppress his emotions, and then said: "You are better at breaking formations, I suspect that there are other formations in this underground bar, or other dangerous places, in order to avoid being killed by the evil cultivator. , can you check the situation in this underground bar? If you encounter wandering souls, it’s best to take them away.”

"Okay." Yin Yan responded immediately, looked at him for a while, then suddenly stepped forward to give him a hug, and whispered in his ear, "I'll be back soon." After speaking, he shrunk an inch and left .

Yu Zhen was taken aback by being hugged, his ears felt inexplicably hot, he suppressed his emotions with a low cough, looked at the two monks in front of him, waved his hand, first broke the iron chains on them with spiritual energy, and put them on the ground, then Set up a protective circle around it.

With the false immortal energy, eliminating evil spirits became very simple for Yu Zhen, but it was a bit more dangerous, so he had to be more careful than before.

The evil spirit in his dantian suppressed by the false immortal energy is like a time bomb, and he cannot relax for a moment.When removing the evil spirits, he needs to draw the false immortal energy out of his body and contact the evil spirits of others. During this process, he needs to concentrate on preventing the evil spirits from outside from entering his body and activating the evil spirits in his own body.

After the array was set up, he ate a pill to clear his mind, and then gave Wu Wu a few words. After everything was ready, he sat cross-legged in front of the seriously injured monk, fed him a pill first, and then gathered together. The pseudo-celestial spirit filled the palm of his hand and touched his forehead.

Outside the basement room, Yin Yan placed three protective barriers at the entrance of the room, and after covering the entrance, he turned around and spread his spiritual sense, and began to investigate the situation of the bar.

The bar is very large, divided into two basement floors. There are a total of thirteen rooms with traces of habitation, each of which has traces of evil spirits and resentment.Most of the things in the room were messy and dirty, almost no different from a garbage dump.

This is the lair of a group of evil cultivators, and it has existed for a long time.

Yin Yan remembered the very vague traces of formations he saw when he was investigating outside the town, his eyes darkened, and after confirming that all the evil cultivators inside had been scared away by Tianlei, his figure flashed and disappeared on the spot .

The sun slowly rose into the sky, and slowly fell again.

It wasn't until sunset that Yu Zhen withdrew the pseudo-celestial energy from the second monk's body and began to stabilize his dantian.

Another quarter of an hour passed, he breathed a sigh of relief, slowly opened his eyes, and found strangely that his body seemed to have become much lighter, and the consumption of pseudo-celestial energy did not make him feel tired, but instead made him mentally clear and aura became more rounded.

"Congratulations, senior, for entering another small realm."

A familiar voice sounded behind him, Yu Zhen came back to his senses, and turned his head to look.

Yin Yan stood outside the formation, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting. Seeing him looking over, he first handed over a bag of food and a small pagoda, and then reminded: "Senior, it's not early, Mr. Feng and the others are about to We're here, we should leave."

The food in the bag is very simple, just a fried rice, but it is still hot.The small tower is very strange, it should be new, but the breath coming out of it is very familiar, it is Magu and San'er.

Only then did Yu Zhen remember the instructions he had given before saving people, and quickly got up and reached out to take the small tower. While checking the situation inside, he asked anxiously: "What's wrong with Magu and the others? When did they come back? Oops, I delayed too long , how about those evil cultivators? But..."

Yin Yan handed him another small pagoda, and said, "Xiexiu is here. After checking the bar, I saw that Senior was still busy, so I went to help Magu and the others. Don't worry, Senior, Magu and the others are fine, but The spiritual energy has been consumed a lot, and I am resting and recovering."

Yu Zhen shut up, looked at his face, and at the things he had prepared, with complicated emotions in her heart, couldn't help but stepped forward to hug him, kissed his side face with her head, and relaxed her body leaning against him body, said: "Thank you... Yin Yan, you are always so kind, I will be spoiled by you."

"No." Yin Yan hugged him back, stroking his back, "Senior is very powerful." I don't know how dazzling the gesture of swinging the sword to kill the demon was.

But you taught me what is great.

Yu Zhen suddenly felt like laughing, turned his head and kissed him again, stepped back and said, "Okay, it's time to clean up the aftermath, Yu Jianfei is too shocking for the current cultivation world, we have to deal with the traces here Just a moment, lest Mr. Feng and the others get suspicious."

"Yeah." Yin Yan nodded, glanced at the two injured monks who had been in a coma from the beginning to the end, lowered his head and handed over the fried rice, and asked, "Then how do you plan to cover up the aftermath, senior?"

Yu Zhen took the fried rice, looked at him as a "master" who unconsciously guided him to solve things independently, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and said, "It's still very simple to cover up, don't we have ready-made covers?"

Ready-made cover?

Yin Yan moved his eyes, looked at the corners of his raised mouth, and asked, "What is it?"

"Of course it is..." Yu Zhen approached him, picked up a spoon, scooped up a spoonful of fried rice and fed it to his mouth, and replied, "That thing that Heaven dropped because of your name."

The heavenly thunder left by Tiandao?

Yin Yan opened his lips and ate the fried rice, reached out to touch his face, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.

Evil cultivators have done too many evils, and the heavens will send thunder to punish them... This is a good statement, the senior is indeed smart.

After an hour of busy work, the two returned to the ground, and Yu Jian flew high into the sky, overlooking this desolate and uninhabited town.

"Poor ordinary people in this town who have been murdered by evil cultivators." Yu Zhen sighed, rubbed the white jade pagoda temporarily used to collect souls, moved his fingers slightly, and dropped a lot of golden seeds, which burrowed into the ground of the town , "I just hope that these seeds can save the feng shui of this place a little bit, and save those remnant souls that can no longer be gathered."

Yin Yan hugged his shoulders and said, "It's time to go home."

Yu Zhen looked at him sideways, remembering that he hadn't slept for two nights and one day in a row, and felt a little distressed, so she took the initiative to hug him and said, "Let's go, go home." After returning home, I have to find a way to practice a flying weapon for myself , Yin Yan can't always be so tired.

The two left, and above the ground, a car was speeding towards the deserted town.

Shi Qingyuan in the car seemed to have sensed something, raised his head to look at the blue sky, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What's the matter with Qing Yuan?" Seeing this, Elder Feng asked, the tracking magic weapon in his hand glowed intermittently, guiding them in the direction.

Shi Qingyuan came back to his senses, couldn't grasp what was the strangeness in his heart just now, shook his head, and said: "It's nothing...the feng shui here is strange, there may be a lot of evil cultivators gathered, Senior Feng, we have to be careful."

Hearing the words, Elder Feng followed and looked forward, with a solemn expression, and nodded.

After returning home, Yu Zhen called Yin Hexiang first, asked for a "sick leave" for Yin Yan, then cooked a table of dishes, watched Yin Yan eat enough, and put him on the bed.

"Go to sleep." Yu Zhen covered him with the quilt, as if preparing to stare at him and fall asleep.

Being urged to sleep was also a very novel experience for Yin Yan.

He looked at Yu Zhen who was deliberately stern, and his heart became hot, and his hand was one step faster than his brain. He stretched out his hand and pulled him to the bed, and said, "Senior, aren't you going to sleep?"

Yu Zhen was unprepared, and was pulled down on top of him. She was suddenly a little shy, and while struggling to get up beside her, she replied, "I'm going back to the nursery..."

Yin Yan simply lifted the quilt and hugged him into his arms, wrapped him in the quilt, lowered his head and kissed his forehead, and closed his eyes: "Good night, senior."

Yin Yan who has memory would never do this kind of action, while Yin Yan who has no memory is obviously much more proactive and bold.

It seems that it has been a long time since we hugged and slept together. Yu Zhen was stunned, and looked up at him sleeping peacefully with his eyes closed. He relaxed his body and mind little by little, and buried his head in his arms, also I closed my eyes.

That's it... Just go to sleep with each other and have the same dream about the future.

After he fell asleep, Yin Yan opened his eyes, raised his hand to brush the hair on his forehead, and looked at him for a long time.

What would the former seniors look like, he thought, touching the corner of Yu Zhen's eyes.

At the door of the bar, how did he develop the instinct to rely on himself... He put down his hand and tightened his arms.

Suddenly I really want to retrieve my memory, I want to know the past of my seniors, I want to know about those forgotten past lives to this life, I want to...be back to the self who seems to be able to take good care of my seniors everywhere.

"Wait for me." He held the person tightly to his chest, and sighed contentedly in his heart.

While catching up on sleep here, Feng Lao and Shi Qingyuan, who were far away in the small town, were looking silly at the ruins of the bar.

"This is..." Shi Qingyuan was rarely stunned.

Old Feng twitched his eyebrows strangely, and said, "It's the breath of the thunder... There used to be a formation here, but it was wiped out by the thunder."

The two looked at each other, and walked towards the depths of the ruins together tacitly.

Five minutes later, according to the guidance of the magic weapon, they found the two missing monks who were just blocked by a stone slab, nestled unconscious in the ruins, but were unscathed.

"Cultivation has been sucked partly, and the dantian is a little turbulent, but it's not a serious problem, and it will be fine if you take care of it." Elder Feng checked the situation of the two monks, relaxed his tense nerves, and sat down on the ground.

Shi Qingyuan looked around, took out his mobile phone and searched for something, his expression became strange, he looked at Feng Lao and said: "The local weather forecast said that there was a sudden and inexplicable burst of thunder here in the early hours of this morning. .”

"The evil cultivators living here should have been scared away by Tianlei. Tianlei is the nemesis of evil cultivators." Elder Feng guessed reasonably, feeling empty in his heart. He glanced at the comatose cultivator on the ground and took out Yu Zhen. Each person fed one of the pills given, pondered for a few seconds, and said: "Search here carefully to see if there are any clues left by the evil cultivators. If such a group of scourges are not eliminated as soon as possible, sooner or later other monks will be killed." .”

Shi Qingyuan nodded, took out a protective magic weapon to cover the unconscious monk, and then turned around in the bar with Feng Lao.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the two of them had nothing to gain. After meeting and communicating, they first moved the unconscious monk to the car and settled down, then returned to the ground, and turned around the town again.

This time they finally made a discovery, but it wasn't a good one.

There is a monument in the corner of the town, probably erected by the relatives of the residents of the town. It says that all the residents of the town died in XX due to an unknown plague, and the town has been deserted ever since.

"It's abominable! This group of evil cultivators actually killed the entire town, and turned them into an unknown plague to deceive people's eyes and ears." Feng Lao was so angry that he looked at the traces of the formation under the monument, wishing to kill those who escaped. The evil cultivators caught them and killed them all.

Shi Qingyuan was calmer than him, and thought deeper than him. He looked around and said, "Senior Feng, all the people in the whole town died of an unknown plague. Such a thing that is enough to broadcast news reports all over the world, but there is no news about it." It didn’t leak out, it doesn’t look like something that a group of scattered people and evil cultivators can do.”

Elder Feng also calmed down when he heard the words. Thinking of the purpose of their investigation abroad this time, he looked solemn and said: "This matter is big or small, we must send people to investigate in detail, and the escaped evil cultivators must also be caught. The news goes back to the country, let the big troops come over."

Shi Qingyuan nodded, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone to contact China.

When Yu Zhen and Yin Yan woke up, there was already a follow-up text message from Shi Qingyuan lying on Yu Zhen's cell phone.

"Qing Yuan is really considerate..." Yu Zhen ate a caring lunch with wet hair, flicked through the text messages on his mobile phone, looked at Yin Yan who was eating elegantly across the way, and said with a smile: "Our cover-up was successful. Feng Lao and the others really thought evil Xiudu was scared away by Tianlei."

Yin Yan nodded, stretched out his hand to take the phone away, and said, "Be careful when eating."

Yu Zhen moved his empty hand, looked up and down at Yin Yan's calm face today, as if he had recovered his memory, picked up the chopsticks, and slowly stretched them towards the plate of rabbit meat on the table.

Yin Yan's eating movements were insignificantly paused, and his eyes chased after him.

It is indeed installed.

Yu Zhen picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it in his mouth, deliberately chewed and tasted it slowly, and then commented: "It tastes...not bad."

"It's good that senior likes it." Yin Yan withdrew his gaze, pretending that he didn't care about this evaluation.

Yu Zhen glanced at him, laughed inwardly, changed his words, and said, "But..."

Yin Yan looked over immediately.

"But why did you cut off the rabbit's legs? You used to keep the legs intact." After Yu Zhen finished speaking, he put another chopstick of rabbit meat into his mouth, and buried himself in his meal happily.

Yin Yan looked at him happily grilling rice, glanced at the well-cut pieces of rabbit meat on the plate, lowered his eyes and was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly put down his chopsticks, and said solemnly: "Senior, I want to retrieve my memory."

Yu Zhen almost choked on the meat when he heard the words, and quickly drank the meat to swallow the meat, his voice raised unconsciously: "Why do you suddenly want to retrieve your memory? No, you are the one who is playing with amnesia, and you are the one who is looking for memory. I just If you are a passive accepter, tell me, I can’t help you.”

If he could help, he wouldn't have been angry for several days at the beginning.

And now... He glanced at the rabbit who was not doing very well on the table, and looked away guiltily.

And now, he thinks that Yin Yan, who has no memory, is quite amusing, he hasn't been a senior enough yet... Cough.

However, Yin Yan quickly grasped the information revealed in this sentence, got up to help him refill half a glass of water, and said, "Senior, I caused this amnesia myself, right?"

"What's wrong, I don't know." Yu Zhen buried her head in drinking water.

Yin Yan observed his expression, and said firmly: "You and I are not enemies, what you said is lying to me, because you are angry."

"Puff—cough, cough, cough." Yu Zhen choked again gloriously, wiped his mouth and clothes frantically, paused the cup pretending to be vicious, and said, "What are you guessing about the kids? Eat, eat, eat. Eat without talking, sleep without talking, do you understand?"

Yin Yan took the water in front of him, shook his head: "I don't understand."

Um?Still playing rebellion?

Yu Zhen looked at him with raised eyebrows, and was about to speak when Yin Yan stopped him.

"You are not my senior either. You are unfamiliar with spells and don't understand most formations. Although you have false immortal energy and a lot of merit, you don't have much experience in dealing with evil cultivators, and you rely on me instinctively. Before... ..." He paused, stood up straight, calmly changed his words, looked down at Yu Zhen's guilty look, and said, "Yu Zhen, you are my junior."

Yu Zhen blushed and felt guilty at his comment, and slapped the table angrily: "Who said I depended on you? I was obviously—"

"You are the one who asked Tianzong."

Yu Zhen was like a chicken being choked, staring at him wide-eyed, speechless.

"You know Wentianzong very well, you know the system of the inner and outer sects, you understand the tiers of book pavilion contribution, and you mentioned Houshan and the elders many times in your words... You should be a child of the outer sect, and you have been bullied or harshly treated by the elders. I hate them, and usually spend more time in the back mountains.”

Yin Yan pushed more and more details, and Yu Zhen began to sweat coldly on his forehead.

Bad, bad, it seems that I can't hold it anymore.

"You know me very well, and I trust you very much, and I'm even used to taking care of you..." Yin Yan stepped up to him, reached out to hook his chin, raised his face, bent down to look into his eyes, Gently rubbed his cheeks with his fingers, feeling the slight vibration of his facial expression, "I take care of you, pamper you, teach you, and... like you."

Yu Zhen's heart skipped a beat when she heard the last word, and she unconsciously held her breath.

It's too, too foul, just talk as you say, what a handsome person you are.

"You're not used to calling me suzerain, and when you call me by my name, your tone is hesitant and tentative..." Yin Yan noticed all his subtle expressions, and slowly approached, "You usually call me by another name. Call me, let me think about it... someone who can take care of you and pamper you, and who is so familiar with me, you should... call me Master."

crackling.

It was as if fireworks were going off in his head, Yu Zhen's eyelashes trembled, and he instinctively wanted to get up and run away, but Yin Yan pressed him on the chair.

"What's your dao name?" Yin Yan asked in a low voice, slowing down his speech.

This tone reminded Yu Zhen of her previous life very well, her mind flickered, and she instinctively replied: "Yuzhen."

"Yu Zhen, Yuzhen... A gentleman is like jade, jade is pure and pine is pure, as clean as jade, as firm as pine." Yin Yan murmured, with a layer of warmth in his eyes, looking down into Yu Zhen's eyes , moved the finger on his face to his lips, and tapped it lightly, "Yuzhen, you are as provocative as your name..."

The rest of the words disappeared and remained between the lips of the two.

Yu Zhen's hands on her knees tightened, her heart beating like a drum.

As clean as jade, as firm as pine, so this is the meaning of my Taoist name?In Master's eyes, he was so beautiful?
