Undying Curse Part 2

Qin Chao Fanwai, Nether Chapter

Years of wars, plunder, and occupation have caused some remote urban areas to lose their city and people, and there is a smell of devastation everywhere.

Even the color of the sky is gray and dark.

The people who died in the war will be randomly thrown into the depths of the dense forest by the looters, buried in a pit, and left to rot, turning into bones, and no one cares about them.

At that time, the burial pit was a mass grave left after a battle. Because the scenes at that time were too tragic, and many strange things happened afterward, as time passed, almost no one dared to step into this forest. step.

Because there is no one to take care of it, weeds are overgrown outside the dense forest, and the hunters passing by can always hear some strange sounds, forcing the people in Lincheng to feel ghostly just looking at this dense forest.

The people of Lincheng who were rebuilt after the war specially named the forest "Wanhun Forest" in order to prevent outsiders from entering.

The adults were worried about their children, and they ran into the woods because they were greedy for fun, and they told a lot of ghost stories about it.In that forest, not only miserable cries can often be heard, but also groans for help, and sometimes even blue will-o'-the-wisps can be seen swaying by.

In this way, one spreads to ten, ten spreads to one hundred, and within a few years, no one in a radius of ten miles dares to step into the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls.

And these rumors are not unfounded, because in the depths of this dense forest, there are network formations created by capable people and strangers everywhere. The cries heard by the hunters were, to be precise, ghost cries, and the will-o-the-wisps they saw... were soul refining. The talisman paper burned by the teacher.

Every wreckage left by the war is deeply attracted to the existence of voodoo masters such as voodoo masters, head-down masters, soul-casting masters, and soul-refining masters.

In their eyes, the value of a person after death is greater than that of life.

Whether it is human internal organs, flesh, bones, or that unwilling wandering soul, the value produced far exceeds expectations.

……

In the moonlight, a family of three accidentally ran into the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls because of their escape. In order to protect his wife and children, the husband blocked the pursuers with his body, but was killed directly.With tears in her eyes, the mother turned around and hugged the newborn child, running desperately.

However, she accidentally fell into a deep pit full of white bones, and the sharp bones pierced into the woman's body, and she fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss.

The few people who came after them didn't want to stay for a moment longer just looking at the miserable situation in the deep pit half-buried by the soil.

The person at the head wanted to confirm whether the woman was dead, but was stopped by another person, and under the cold moonlight, he gestured to the white bones that were stained red with blood.

In their eyes, this place is like a natural burial pit.

The cold wind blew through the weeds, making a "hissing" sound.

The woman lost too much blood, and her life fell under the moonlight, until the child woke up from the cold embrace of the mother, not knowing whether it was cold or hungry, and let out a crisp cry.

And this cry lasted for three full days and three nights before a man in a blue robe found him, hugged him in his arms, and first got rid of the corpse's smell on the child.

He turned around and stared at the woman's body, with a gratified smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to the weak baby: "It turns out that you were the brat who trespassed on the nodules I set up, and you were able to survive for nearly four days in such a harsh environment." For a long time, such a hard life, nothing could be better."

The weak baby pursed his lips, unaware of what was happening around him.

"Up to Youyue, down to Hell, and I just received an order from the Pavilion Master today to take charge of the Underworld. I wonder if you are also destined for it?" The man looked up at the moon in the night sky, and sighed: "From today, As a teacher, I call you Youming."

The man who left Wanhun Forest didn't go back directly to Yinyang Pavilion, but rented a courtyard in Lincheng and found someone to take care of the baby carefully.

until she was three years old.

When the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, You Ming, who is running happily in the courtyard, accidentally bumps into a man in a long gown.

Seeing this, You Ming took two steps back, saluted and apologized.

The man leaned over to look at the clarity in You Ming's eyes, and said with relief, "They are really beautiful eyes, but they don't suit you."

"Mr. Dao Gu is here." Granny Shan who heard the sound came out of the room and saluted.

"Grandma Shan has worked hard these past few years, and I'm here to pick her up and leave."

"Ming'er is very obedient, it doesn't feel hard to take her, but here is still not as good as Xianyang, so it's good to take her away." Shan Granny said softly: "When does the master plan to leave?"

"tomorrow."

When Granny Shan heard this, she stretched out her hand to gently stroke You Ming's little head, "Then Granny Shan will make Ming'er's favorite lotus seed soup today."

When You Ming heard the lotus seed soup, he quickly clapped his hands and applauded.

Granny Shan just smiled and said nothing, her eyes were rosy.

Early the next morning, Dao Gu hugged You Ming, who was still sound asleep, and prepared to leave. Before saying goodbye, he reminded: "Soon, there will be a war here, so move out as soon as possible."

"Thank you, sir." Granny Shan coughed lightly, shook her head and said, "I'm old and can't move anymore. Every day counts."

Dao Gu said nothing, turned and left.

Before leaving here, Dao Gu hugged Nether, and first came to the place where they met that day, only to find that this child is not afraid of corpses and bones at all.

For You Ming's reaction, Dao Gu was not only pleased, but to be precise, he was very pleasantly surprised. It turns out that this child's life is hard and his heart is cold.

And let her kneel down in front of the shapeless corpse, kneel down and salute three times.

"Ming'er." Dao Gu led You Ming and called softly.

You Ming raised his head to look at Dao Gu, blinked his clear eyes, and called, "Sir." She heard the address from Grandma Shan, so she learned it as usual.

"From today onwards, don't call me sir." Dao Gu leaned over and looked at You Ming, glanced at the bones, and signaled with his eyes: "After bidding farewell to her, you will no longer be her child, you You are my Dao Gu's apprentice, from this moment on, you should call me Master."

"...Master."

Hearing these two words, the nun got up and held You Ming's little hand, with a meaningful smile hanging from the corner of her eyes, "Master will make you a unique existence."

……

The so-called uniqueness is to throw Nether, which has just been soaked in the medicine vat, into a cave full of Gu insects, and live with it for three days and three nights.

In the eyes of the Gu worms, the smell emanating from You Ming is the same as them, they are of the same kind.But in You Ming's eyes, these Gu worms are like friends who accompany him, not only not afraid, but also playing with them.

In the eyes of Dao Gu, Nether's talent is becoming more and more mature day by day, and during this period, because of the relationship in charge of the Nether Palace, Dao Gu's research on Gu poison has become more and more crazy.

Practicing secret techniques during the day, and being with Gu insects at night, for two years, You Ming, who is less than six years old, is the most outstanding among his many disciples in the eyes of Dao Gu.

Dao Gu held the bamboo slips in his hand and was sitting under the tree to understand the chess game. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed that You Ming, who was meditating, was not concentrating, and softly called: "Ming'er."

Hearing Master's voice, You Ming turned his attention away from a butterfly and continued to stare at the silk Gu in the vessel.

Dao Gu put down the bamboo slips, stood up and walked in front of You Ming, staring at the butterfly not far away, said: "Ming'er likes butterflies?"

You Ming glanced at the beautiful butterfly, without denying it: "I like it."

"Master, I'm currently researching contract Gu. If Ming'er likes it, how about making a contract with Butterfly when you become an adult?"

You Ming, who has always been expressionless, after hearing this proposal, his eyes lit up involuntarily, "Really?"

"Master, have you ever lied to you?" Dao Gu is no stranger to these extremely clear eyes, but this is not the look he wants, and he also knows that some things can't be rushed, such clarity needs to be washed with blood, " Ming'er, come with Master."

You Ming stared at Master's leaving figure, closed the lid of the vessel, and immediately followed.

When she was deep in the deep secret passage, especially the bloody smell spreading from her nose, she frowned involuntarily.

"This is a prison cell, and all the criminals who have committed the death penalty are detained." Dao Gu introduced in a light tone, "It can be said that everyone here deserves to die."

"Damn?"

Dao Gu said as he pushed open a door, and the target was a man bound by iron chains on an iron frame.Just seeing those murderous eyes, You Ming involuntarily took a step back, this is the instinct of an ordinary person.

"Ming'er, the person who should be afraid is him, not you." Dao Gu and You Ming looked at each other, pointed at the prisoner on the iron frame, "He killed his first wife and newborn child, should this person be scared?" live?"

You Ming shook his head, and replied directly, "No."

"This is for you." Dao Gu took out a Gu needle, "Usually, the scarecrows are thrown away, this time, try the damned ones."

You Ming took the Gu needle handed over by Dao Gu, and threw it away without hesitation, just like practicing kung fu in normal times.

The Gu needle reaches the center of the eyebrows, it can be said that the person died very quickly, but those unwilling eyes stared straight at You Ming.

It seems to be asking her, why, why did she die in your hands.

In the cold cell, only Dao Gu's satisfied chuckle was heard, looking back at Nether who had no reaction, he continued: "Ming'er, he killed his wife because his wife betrayed him, do you think his wife should Don't you deserve to die?"

You Ming looked at Master half-understood, blinked her eyes, and then looked back at the man she had just killed, especially those eyes, she was a little scared, forcing her to hide behind Dao Gu.

"Master..."

Dao Gu seemed very satisfied with Nether's reaction, and patiently explained: "Although his wife deserves to die, it's not as bad as children, so he deserves to die too..."

"really?"

"Does Ming'er believe in Master?"

You Ming replied without hesitation, "I believe."

"Master also believes that Ming'er can do the best." Daogu pulled You Ming away, passed by the criminals in each cell, and said softly: "They all deserve to die because they did something bad. After that, help Master get rid of these people, this is your mission."

"The disciple understands."

……

What is life?

You Ming never asked himself, what is the meaning of life?

In her world, there is only "damn".

And the definition of whether he should die or not depends on the master, and later the prime minister.

The first person who asked her the meaning of life was Xuan Luo.When the woman knew that she was saving a killer, she was not surprised or curious, but asked herself a question that she still couldn't answer so far.

"You Ming, if one day your master and prime minister tell you to kill me, will you do it without hesitation?"

Nether: "..."

The author has something to say: Jiang You and Ling Yu said something about her childhood.

It is not easy to visualize a few words, but fortunately I have a rich outline.

……

In the next episode, I will write about the first encounter between You Ming and Xuan Luo.

I guess I'll have to wait until this volume is finished.
