Falling Snow Ruoying

The afterglow disappeared little by little, and the whole Langshan Mountain was shrouded in a strange atmosphere. Those people only lit a few torches in the temple, and the surrounding visibility was reduced to the minimum.

"There are so many of them, it's not an option for us to sit here and wait for death." Jin Ming whispered to the four people beside him.

Su Lie nodded, but was still unwilling to give up, "Wait a little longer, I want to see what their intentions are."

This is also the ultimate goal of this trip, no one will be reconciled to returning without success like this.

"Don't you think those people are a bit strange?" Su Qing pointed to a soldier on the outermost perimeter. Since they arrived here, the guards here seem to have never changed shifts, and they have been standing there in this posture , If you don't feel their breath, you will really mistakenly think that these people have already died.

"If they were poisoned, it would make sense." Jin Ming said, "I heard that there is a kind of Gu, which is colorless and tasteless when put into food. Once it enters the human body, it can reproduce wantonly. With the blood It flows in the human body, and once it enters the brain, it can control the body of the person affected by the Gu. Moreover, those who control the human body can often break the limit of the human body, and will not die easily without eating or drinking for several days." He pointed at the man just now, "His situation is completely in line with it."

"Although our clan is not good at getting involved in this kind of Gu poison, there are indeed such records in the fragments left by the Dark Feather Clan." Su Lie turned to Jin Ming and said, "Mr. Jin, do you know what is the weakness of these Gu poisons? "

Jin Ming smiled meaningfully, "This Gu itself is fragile, if there is no host, it will turn into blood in less than half a moment, but once it invades the human body, the person who controls it will be like a zombie, tirelessly Do things until..." Jin Ming pointed to his head.

Everyone understands what this means.

Su Qing tugged at Luo Ying's sleeve, leaned into her ear and asked softly, "Sister, I remember that after this kind of Gu enters the human body, the appearance of the controlled person remains unchanged."

Luo Ying nodded, "This is also a kind developed by the Dark Feather Clan for many years, and its appearance looks no different from ordinary people."

Luo Ying was awakened suddenly, and with the help of the faint firelight and moonlight, she carefully observed the man.Finally, a long and thin pointed object was found at the back of his neck, half of which had been buried in the body.She looked up and saw that there were many such things hanging in the thick leaves. When the wind blew, occasionally a few fell off and stuck straight into the soil.

"Candel tree?" Luo Ying was startled, "Stop joking!"

"Huh?" Everyone was attracted by Luo Ying's startled breathing, and looked over one after another.

"Candelera generally grows in places with high salinity or abundant water. How can there be here?" Luo Ying said to herself, pulling up the seeds that were stuck in the soil, which looked like bows and arrows. She looked up, "And Tends to be parasitic..."

"These seeds germinate before the fruit leaves the mother body. They are cylindrical or rod-shaped, with a sharp and hard tip." Jian Yuxi also added, "This is too beyond common sense."

Cut, I don't know who spat, but no one cares.

Jin Ming also randomly took out one on the ground and looked at it in front of his eyes.Although the place where it grows is a bit strange, but other things are no different, "In this extremely shady place, everything is normal, just a few small candelabra, there is no need to make such a fuss, all the plants are soldiers." After finishing speaking, I still don't forget Throw the seeds in your hand randomly on the ground.

"It's better to be careful." Su Lie said in a deep voice, it's best to be a coincidence.

But what they didn't know was that the seed that was randomly thrown on the ground slowly plunged into the soil after they left, and the hanging seeds were also crumbling, waiting for the next prey.

When Luo Ying scouted the surroundings, she still had some care, but she never saw the same scene as before, and some of them were only scattered on the bodies of those puppets. Of course, there were only a few of them. According to this This probability, the previous one was just a coincidence.

At some point, the temperature in the woods dropped rapidly, and the five people hid in the trees one after another, stopped moving, and quietly watched the movements of the group of people in the temple.

As the temperature gradually dropped, the people inside also began to move, thinking that a skinny old man came out of the hall in a loose robe, followed by a group of young people holding red candles and yellow talismans, those people Gather under the Bodhi tree and place red candles around it at the bottom.

The bodhi tree was originally for seeking marriage, and many red cloth strips were tied on the paper strips as a medium for wishing. Under the reflection of the fire, it was dyed a strange red everywhere.

"Put wooden stakes around the tree and surround her according to the previous formation." The old man ordered, although his voice was hoarse, he was very majestic.

"Yes!"

Those young people stood obediently by the side, guarding their candles, while the rest of the men in black took the tools they had prepared before, lifted the stone slabs around the linden tree, laid wooden stakes in eight directions, and The yellow ropes were joined together, and at the end, charms were attached to the ropes.

"It seems that those outside the temple are just puppets for vigilance, and those inside are the key." Jin Ming said thoughtfully, "Instead, they spent a lot of time just to get rid of this tree."

"If things go wrong, there must be a demon." Luo Ying said quietly, "This tree..."

She glanced at Jian Yuxi, and when the other party noticed it, he immediately shook his head with an innocent look on his face.

The temperature is still dropping, and you can even see the cold air that everyone is breathing.

They didn't start the next step until the temperature dropped to the extreme.

"Call some of you back to work." The old man said coldly.

After the man in black took the order, he immediately called in a few puppets controlled by the poison from outside the temple. Under the order of the old man, he picked up the iron catalpa and excavated around the stump.

"Isn't it enough to just fire it up? It saves so much trouble." Su Qing said bluntly.

"Looking at this posture, they seem to be trying to lure something out." Luo Ying was thoughtful, "That old man seems to be one of the elders of the Dark Feather Clan, Xi Shu."

"I heard from my mother that at that time, the Dark Feather Clan was defeated and forced to go to Longchang. It was this book that protected Yan Yuan and left. I didn't expect that this old guy is still alive." Su Qing gritted her teeth and said, if it is an ordinary Gu It's nothing more than a teacher, but he is a traitor who has a blood feud with his family.

A small roar was produced along with the shaking ground, and countless thick roots suddenly protruded from the bottom of the Bodhi tree, directly hitting the positions of the puppets' hearts.Due to the powerful impact, several puppets fell to the ground after being pierced through their chests.But those tree roots no longer moved forward, only hovering inside the stump, waiting for the next opportunity to attack.

Seeing this, Xi Shu was very satisfied, "Call a few more."

The man in black executed the order immediately after receiving it.

Those puppets that were knocked down struggled a few times, stood up alive again, and continued to work with the shovel.

Digging deeper and deeper, through the light of the fire, you can even see the roots coiled in the ground, like flowing green blood, endlessly growing.

Those roots knocked down the approaching golems again and again, but the next wave immediately picked them up again, to no avail.

"Huh..." Xi Shu snorted coldly, "I see what other tricks you have."

The tree roots were still wriggling slowly, not in a hurry to fight back.

I saw one of them rolled up a piece of gravel on the ground and threw it into the air, and the other immediately made up for the blow flexibly. The gravel hit a man in black in the distance along the direction of the force. The man fell to the ground with a muffled groan, and struggled for a while before standing up.

And this bodhi tree seemed to have found something interesting, and repeated the same trick, many of those people got hit a few times.

"Hahaha!" A girl's voice came from the tree, "You villains really underestimate me."

He fixed his eyes, and at some point, a woman in red and white clothes resembling a Taoist robe was sitting on the thick tree trunk, barefoot, smiling triumphantly at Xi Shu.

"..." Xi Shu didn't answer her.

Seeing that there are fewer and fewer stones, but the excavation work continues, the woman is still smiling, "Since I promised the little monk to look after his house, there will always be people like you who come to find fault if there is nothing to worry about. Annoying?" The woman seemed to be talking to herself.

Seeing that no one was talking to her, she hummed and chirped to entertain herself.

"Hey! Old man," the woman raised her eyebrows and looked at Xi Shu, "do you think that's all I have?"

Xi Shu didn't know why, but he still ordered to continue, but his guard was raised several times.

The woman lightly hooked her hands, and the trees around the temple grew like crazy, covering the temple tightly.The fruits of the candela tree fell on the ground densely with the wind, falling like a rain of arrows, piercing people's bodies.

The men in black who retained their consciousness immediately took out their sabers to block them. The puppets were still working non-stop without receiving orders. Sometimes the clothes on their bodies were nailed to the ground, and they were only torn apart by brute force.

"Hmph, little skill." Xi Shu shook his head disdainfully.

The woman thought for a while, "Yeah, these things are used to amuse the little monks. For you, there should be something more exciting."

Supported by the roots of the tree, the woman jumped to a high place and drew something on the trunk while humming. After finishing the painting, she admired it for a while before coming down.

Xi Shu was waiting in full force in the temple, while the five people hiding in the tree could clearly see that with a roar, countless bodies emerged from the trunk of the huge mulberry tree. The ten corpses, looking for the breath of the living, gradually gathered towards the monastery, and the few people on the tree seemed to be shielded from being discovered by the undead.

In the early days of primitive society, humans lived on trees. Based on the concept of the soul, the ancestors believed that since people lived on trees when they were alive, they would also use "trees" as their "home" after death.So the custom of tree burial came into being. The most common way is to dig an adult-sized groove in the middle of the formed tree trunk, put the body in and seal it with the original skin.Since the real living thing of the tree is only the epidermis, over time, the external scars will recover a little bit, and the corpse seems to grow into the tree.

The movement of these undead startled the puppet guarding outside the temple, and the two lifeless things fought desperately.

Although the puppet has a physical body, it does not feel pain, let alone fear death, and its martial arts are far superior to these ordinary people.However, the number is limited, so it is inevitable that one loses sight of another, and many undead sneak in.

The gate of the monastery was torn open by their bare hands, as if a hole had been broken, and the undead in the distance seemed to be responding. The main attack here, the puppets also struggled more and more, and from time to time, the fruits of the candela tree would fall from high places, sealing them action.

Xi Shu raised his eyebrows to signal those who held the yellow talisman, and those people also tacitly pasted the talisman on the surrounding walls, and surrounded it with a red rope with the yellow talisman, sealing the movement of the undead.

"Since it is a dead thing, it will naturally be afraid of this spell." Xi Shu was clearly prepared, "You are also trapped in it, waiting to die."

"Sister Liuya, he is so bad! He always bullies you." A ball-shaped object fell from the top of the linden tree, and the woman immediately controlled the vine to catch her and put her next to her.

"You little girl, you never let me worry!" The woman named Liuya blamed, but her tone was very doting, no one can lose her temper with such a little girl, "Also, you Which eye saw that I was being bullied, it was obviously me who was taking care of this group of people who didn't know what to do, understand?"

The little girl got into Liu Ya's arms and acted like a baby, "I understand, I understand! Who made my sister so powerful."

"I didn't expect there to be another one," Xi Shu snorted coldly, "but it won't be a big deal."

The little girl poked her head out of Liu Ya's arms, and smiled at Xi Shu, "Old man, you look really good!"

At first glance, she looks like a ghost, and she can't guess her thoughts, which is very similar to Liu Ya's temper.

The little girl hooked her hands, and the puppets who were still fighting with the undead outside the temple put away their weapons, approached the main entrance with lightness kung fu, and jumped into the temple with their strength.The two men in black in the temple also seemed to be in control, slashing at the surrounding companions with their swords.

The man in black has also seen many big scenes. Although the incident happened suddenly, he reacted very quickly and called out some people to suppress the rebels.

For a moment, it was impossible to tell who was the enemy and who was the friend. Xi Shu took the long sword at his waist and hit the mad man directly. The rest of the men in black rushed forward and easily pushed him to the ground.

Xi Shu squatted down solemnly to check the man's situation, but saw a sword-like candela seed on his neck. Xi Shu held the upper end of the seed firmly, and with this breath of true energy, the seed was removed from the man's neck. Forced out of the body.The original hard and smooth seeds were covered with root-like things where they met the flesh and blood. After being forced out of the body, they were still wriggling, trying to find the next host.

"Hey!" The little girl looked regretful, "I was discovered by you."

Liuya looked optimistic, "But it's too late, old man, I won."

There were very few rebels who rushed inside, but their goal had been achieved. While the men in black were entangled, one of them took the opportunity to cut off the red rope, and there were not many yellow talismans stuck on the wall left. The undead outside can't wait to rush in at this moment.

They were bloodthirsty killers in the first place. After smelling the bloody atmosphere in the courtyard, their murderous intent deepened. Coupled with the large number, even puppets who were not afraid of life and death could hardly parry them. Xi Shu's side gradually lost.

"Tsk!" Jin Ming, who was originally hiding in the tree, spat, then turned over and jumped into the temple.

Looking at Jin Ming who manipulated the corpse with evil methods, Luo Ying didn't understand, so when she thought about the previous conversation, she realized, "Brother Jin, is it really Yan Yuan pretending to be?"

Su Lie nodded, obviously she already knew.

"When did you know?" Luo Ying asked.

"Two hours ago, he missed something in the conversation." Su Lie explained, "He said that you would not get close to anyone after your father died, but your current identity is the daughter of the left prime minister in the Central Plains. Your father After Huang Yi was killed by me, I found someone to pretend to be. That is to say, in the eyes of ordinary people, your father is still alive, and the person he talks about is Uncle Luo. The second point, Yinger, your body belongs to Huang Yi. But it can suppress the blood gu. I find it hard to believe that this is a coincidence. In my opinion, the most likely thing is that you have been exposed to some gu poison but didn't know it, and you developed antibodies over time. And Jin Ming is just your close person .”

Su Qing received such shocking news for a while, she was so shocked that she couldn't even speak, Jian Yuxi also looked at this reversal with a dazed expression.

"Why didn't you tell us earlier? Afraid you might startle the snake?"

"Well, that's one of the reasons..." Su Lie continued after listening for a while, "I was just skeptical at the beginning, and you seem to have got some news. In order not to leak it, I had to avoid talking to you."

Luo Ying thought to herself, this is a surefire solution.

She asked Jian Yu, "How long will it take for the reinforcements to arrive?"

Jian Yu recalled it for a while before answering, "It stands to reason that the reinforcements from the western border started fighting with the undead in the middle of the night, and the time should be fast."

Luo Ying nodded, now it is difficult to tell the time, and it is not easy to accurately grasp the trump card in his hand.

Seeing that Luo Ying's expression was not very good, she remonstrated with Yuxi and hurriedly added, "Miss Luo, don't worry, this is the place where Yan Yuan was robbed, we just need to reap the benefits of being a fisherman."

Su Lie gave Jian Yuxi a meaningful look after listening, "Go back and explain to me clearly."

Jian Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief as if he was about to receive an amnesty when he heard it, "It must be."

While the four of them were chatting happily, the chaotic battle inside was still going on. With his own skill, Jin Ming controlled several undead to defend against the enemy, and those puppets were also several times stronger than before, and their flesh and blood flew all over the place.

Liu Ya disgustedly used vines to block the splattered flesh and blood, so as not to fly to her body, and waited for Jin Ming's physical strength to be overdrawn.

In the end, only the dying Xi Shu and the torn Yan Yuan were left alive inside.

"Hey!" Liu Ya shouted to Jin Ming, "Are you convinced?"

Jin Ming snorted coldly, blood flowed from his mouth, he didn't want to talk to Liu Ya at all.

"Sister, you have been ignored."

"..."

Surrounded by undead, Jin Ming could only swing his sword numbly, attack, block...

The weapons of those puppets were blown away, and it happened that a long sword broke the enchantment around the Bodhi tree.

"Hey, it's broken!" Liuya shouted out of composure, and frowned again, "Forget it!"

The tree roots were free, and spread to the surroundings. Liu Ya controlled them and took Jin Ming out of the pile of dead people, and put him in front of him, quietly looking at the angry Jin Ming, as if from him Looking at other things on her body, "This time, I let you go." She said calmly, contrary to the previous fiery aura, "You'd better be grateful for this skin, it looks so similar to that dead monk!"

She said she was going to let him go, but under her control, several vines got into his wrists and ankles, breaking his muscles and bones, "If you are crippled, it can be regarded as an explanation to the little monk."

Liu Ya smiled lightly at him, but Jin Ming had already fallen into a coma.

Countless vines entangled his body, and under Liu Ya's control, Jin Ming was thrown off the cliff.

In just one night, only the bewitching bodhi tree and countless wandering undead remained in the Shengguang Temple.

"Be careful!" Su Lie raised his hand and knocked away the seeds of the candel tree that were about to fall into Luo Ying's body, while avoiding other attacks.Knowing that they had been discovered, everyone showed up and jumped to the roof of the wing room of the temple.The dead spirits smelled the breath of the living and gathered towards them again.

"Really, if you don't do this, you will be willing to come out!" The little girl said angrily.

Liu Ya lay on the trunk and fell asleep, and the little girl obediently left her embrace, pointing at Su Lie and others, "Didn't you see that my sister is weak? Hurry up and clean up these things!"

Liu Ya flicked her head, "Why is the little girl talking so aggressively!"

She stretched her waist before slowly explaining, "You should also know that I am Bodhi who guards the land of extreme yin, and these dead spirits are also released by loosening the seal to resist these villains, but tonight I was originally I'm weak, and I've tried my best just to deal with the enemy. I wanted to use their enchantment to deal with these undead, but the enchantment was destroyed halfway. Now I want to trouble a few people to help solve it. It's just to help you get rid of the enemy return gift."

Su Lie paid her respects, "Since it's the girl's request, Su will definitely live up to her trust."

After speaking, she gave Luo Ying a wink. Luo Ying knew what she meant and nodded, "Now we just need to hold out until the reinforcements arrive."

The four reached an agreement and jumped into the undead to fight together.

Hearing the sound of swords colliding, Liuya became more and more exhausted, and in a daze, she seemed to see the young monk with delicate eyebrows again, "You are so smart, I can't do it if you count." She wanted to laugh, but couldn't do it. Li Qi said, "Since I ruined your reincarnation, I have an explanation for the previous agreement."

Next, where should I be?

In fact, it would be good to sleep here forever, at least I won't be lonely.

"Sister, are you tired?" The little girl leaned her head and asked curiously.

It was obviously just a weak seedling at first, but it turned into a human form with its own spiritual power, "Well, I played too much, I want to sleep for a while, don't forget to wake me up at dawn."

So stupid, how should I live without myself?

Hehe, just think of it as an excuse to continue living, Liuya thought so, and fell asleep deeply.

In the middle of the night, the reinforcements arrived as scheduled. At this time, the Yin Qi gradually dissipated, and the aggressiveness of the undead was also significantly weakened. After a whole night of hard work, they were finally subdued.

"Miss Luo, I know that you are a person who has time-traveled, so I firmly believe that telling you what happened to me is more credible than telling anyone else." .

"So, you are the same as me?" Luo Ying basically already knew the answer, ever since she said the word director.

"It's the same, but there are differences." Jian Yuxi said ambiguously.

"..."

"Let me explain it to you in this way. I know your identities, experiences, and what will happen in the future. I basically understand everything." Jian Yuxi felt that what he said was too complicated, so he changed his words, "Actually, This is the world in a novel I read, and I broke in by mistake. If you have read time-traveling novels, you should know that there is a type of time-traveling book, which means time-traveling into a certain story."

"Um..." The plot was a little jumpy, "You mean, we live in a world written by others, just characters in a novel?"

Jian Yuxi nodded hurriedly, it is convenient to talk to smart people.

"Then when did you come here?" Luo Ying rubbed her head to digest the information.

"It wasn't long after I was sent to Shengguang Temple. Otherwise, how could I remember my own life experience at such a young age?" Although it is a bit despicable to deliberately win Qing'er's favor by using the current status.

"Do you have any plans after you come here?" Luo Ying asked, "Since you already know the plot, there should be a lot of arrangements for the future."

Jian Yuxi nodded in agreement, "I know that the owner of Guanchao Pavilion has a close relationship with Yan Yuan, and Yan Yuan is an important figure in the future development of the plot, so I took advantage of the restoration of the country to establish a good relationship with Guanchao Pavilion, that is, at that time , I met Qinger. I hesitated for a long time between Hongtu and Qinger in the future, but whenever I think of her smile, I feel that the future is not important at all. I want to protect Qinger and borrow my only The advantage is to protect her comprehensively."

"Well, we all know what you think about Qing'er." Luo Ying was also helpless, "Wait! You said Yan Yuan?"

"Well, Yan Yuan is actually the more important villain in this book, and there are quite a lot of descriptions about him, so I know his movements. By the way! According to the script, you should not know that Yan Yuan is still alive."

"Indeed..." Luo Ying frowned, unexpectedly, the young master of the Dark Feather Clan, her father-killing enemy, is still alive, "Then, how much do you know about tonight's actions?"

"Actually, tonight is Yan Yuan's turning point. He will be seriously injured, rescued by another villain, and start another life."

"Will he show up tonight?" Luo Ying was shocked.

"Yes, and, although he has a meticulous layout, he was crushed by the bodhi tree demon on the mountain. We just need to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Besides, the reinforcements will rush to the mountain in the middle of the night to clean up the mess. It's just this matter, the book The explanation given by the supervisor is very rough, and the specific details are all mentioned in one stroke, so I can only remember the general idea."

"Well...that's enough." Luo Ying remembered an important thing, "Since you know the plot, do you know where can I find Lie's medicine?"

Jian Yuxi shook his head, "Yan Yuan is just a villain supporting role, and you are only supporting roles that appeared to enrich his image. The story did not tell you in detail. Since the end of tonight's incident, the description of you There are almost none, but the last one wrote, you seem to have gone to the northernmost extremely cold place."

"So we are just supporting roles..." Luo Ying was a little dizzy, "Then who is the main character?"

Now it's Jian Yu's turn to be strange, "From now on, your fate will no longer be controlled by others, so why bother to worry about who the protagonist is?"

"No, no, no," Luo Ying interrupted her, "Have you ever heard of the protagonist's halo?"

"..."

In the main hall, Su Lie took a sip of tea slowly, "Why are you so busy?"

"..."

"All in all, there must be clues to the medicinal materials in the extremely cold place. Let's look for them after we rectify them!" Luo Ying said with a smile, it's no wonder that Su Lie has such a good tolerance for such unimaginable things and can accept them all.

"From now on, our fate will no longer be controlled by others, as long as one of them goes down." Su Lie put down the cup in his hand.

"Well, to see you again and recognize you, I have nothing else to ask for..."

With such a strong affection, Jian Yuxi instantly felt that he was redundant.
