My Taoist Temple is trending again

The three of them each had something on their minds, so no one spoke and walked in silence.

It didn't take long to reach the end of this small black city.

In the dim lights, they saw a brick and wood building that was not so shabby compared to other low and simple houses. Judging from the shape and quality of the building, it should be before the Tang Dynasty.

"This is the residence of the city lord." Song Jue said softly.

There are ghosts guarding the gate, but they dare not embarrass Song Jue, and they don't need to report at all.

In just a short while, the news of the return of the former city lord who was once invincible has spread throughout the world.

Even the current city lord knew it, so as soon as the three of them appeared, the guards immediately moved out of the way respectfully, and a beautiful female ghost in elegant clothes that could not tell the age appeared in front of them, saluted them respectfully, and said : "Master Song, the city lord is already waiting for you, and the food and drinks have been prepared for you, please come with me."

Song Jue was also very familiar with this face. Although he didn't know who it was, he could feel that the female ghost was afraid of him, so he was not too defensive. He nodded and followed the female ghost.

The three of them walked through the gallery of wood carvings and came to a living room.

This place is much more luxurious than outside, and even extravagantly lit candles.

A man sits on the chair.He has complete limbs, without any strange organs on his body, he looks very gentle, unlike other ghosts here, revealing the fierceness and despair of a desperado.

He laughed when he saw Song Jue, walked to Song Jue's side in two or three steps, and wanted to hug Song Jue passionately, but Song Jue took a big step back and avoided him.

He was not embarrassed, he still smiled and said: "Brother, I really didn't expect that you really went out from Wujian, I thought you had..."

Song Jue just looked at him silently, obviously showing a sense of strangeness.

The man slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, brother, you should be reincarnated. You may not remember the past. It's okay. Sit down first, and I will tell you slowly."

Song Jue said: "Don't be in a hurry to reminisce about the past, I'm here to find someone."

The man said: "I know you are looking for someone. My other brothers have invited that person to deal with the affairs of the human world. I will send someone to invite him back. You can take a rest."

Song Jue turned to look at Yuwen and Xu Qingmu to seek their opinions, they both nodded, and Song Jue said yes to the man.

The man immediately smiled and asked his ghosts to bring up food and wine. Four people sat around a large dining table, and the man began to introduce himself.

"Brother, you may not remember my name. My name is Ling Gu, and now I am the lord of this small town." The man named Ling Gu kept looking at Song Jue with a smile, and said, "These days are hard, thanks to Big Brother Without your care, I might have lost my soul a long time ago. After you leave, I will become the lord of the city, all thanks to you."

Song Jue wanted to say, such a ghostly place, how can there be any blessings.

But he didn't know why, he didn't like this person very much, so he just said indifferently: "I don't even remember."

Ling Gu said: "It's okay, do you want to eat something or drink some wine? I'll talk to you slowly."

Song Jue picked up the wine glass and shook it, and looked at the plate in front of him, which was burnt and could not tell what kind of animal meat it was.

Although this is very simple food, in this fiery hell where not a single blade of grass grows, this piece of meat and a glass of wine are enough for any ghost to fight for the pain of eternal life.

Song Jue pursed his lips, a strong sense of hunger came over him without warning, he felt as if he had never eaten before, his whole chest and abdomen were cramping with hunger.And the simple food in front of him gave him an indescribable longing.

Song Jue's eyes were confused for a moment, but he soon came to his senses again. He heard the voice in his heart telling himself that he couldn't eat it, and he couldn't eat it no matter what.

While thinking like this, Xu Qingmu raised his hand and grabbed his wrist, and said softly, "You can't eat it."

Song Jue turned to look at Xu Qingmu, only to see that Xu Qingmu's eyes were full of worry.

Xu Qingmu further explained: "We broke into hell with our souls separated from our bodies. We cannot eat food from the underworld. If we eat it, the food in our stomachs will turn into rotten meat from the underworld when our souls return. In time, the intestines will be gutted and rotten to death."

Song Jue didn't know about it, but he just knew instinctively that he couldn't eat it.

"I'm just looking." Song Jue smiled at Xu Qingmu with the corner of his mouth pulled up, calming his restless mood.

Ling Gu bent his eyes, watched their movements, and then said slowly: "Brother is still the same as before, really bearable."

As he spoke, Ling Gu picked up a large piece of meat and bit it down violently. Uncooked blood and oil splashed out together. Ling Gu wiped it with the back of his hand indifferently and continued to eat.

Song Jue looked at his exaggerated eating appearance, and said softly, "Now, why don't you tell me about what happened when I was here before."

Ling Gu took a sip of his wine and spoke slowly.

"Brother, you used to talk very little, and you wouldn't tell me everything about you. But I know that last time you also broke into Wujian with a soul, looking for someone. And you found that person as soon as you came Yes, and then... I don’t know what method you used to send that person out of Wujian, that’s the first time we know that someone can leave Wujian.”

Song Jue said: "But I didn't go out, I stayed here for 1000 years."

Ling Gu nodded and said: "Although I don't know how you did it, I can imagine that you paid a huge price. In order to send that person out, almost all of your soul was scattered and you suffered very serious injuries. At that time, the smell of blood on your body attracted all the ghosts in Wujian, and you were almost wiped out."

Xu Qingmu was worried when he heard it, and he couldn't help but frowned, and his breathing couldn't help being a little disordered.

Song Jue noticed his situation, smiled lightly, and said, "But I'm not dead."

Ling Gu sighed and said: "Yeah, you... are too scary, you tore up all the ghosts who wanted to eat you, so the remaining ghosts are so afraid of you. But you were injured too badly, no There is no way to get out, so I stayed here for 1000 years and became the city lord."

Hearing this, Xu Qingmu's mind has already connected things together.

When he was struck by lightning, he should have been wiped out or re-entered reincarnation.But I don't know why, his soul is in the world.He was going to suffer from this eternal fire, but Song Jue came to find him, risking his life to send him away.

And Xu Qingmu's soul was also damaged in Wujian, and he lost a soul, so he was a fool in every reincarnation.

It took 1000 long years before his lost soul was finally healed, and Song Jue's injury healed, and he also rushed out from Wujian.

That's why when they touch each other, it's like getting chicken blood.The endless encounters and millennia of entanglement have already tied their souls together, and only together can they be the most complete.

It was difficult for Xu Qingmu to describe the feeling in his heart at this time, it was like a needle prick, and it was painful.

Ling Gu said again: "Brother, you have to find that person who is as determined as you this time, and you have made up your mind to go out, and you still refuse to eat until now."

Yuwen was about to burst into tears, and couldn't help blurting out: "That's great!"

What Xu Qingmu noticed was not here, he stared at Ling Gu, gritted his teeth and said slowly: "You mean that Song Jue hasn't eaten here for more than 1000 years?"

Ling Gu said as a matter of course: "That's right, he hasn't eaten for 1000 years, and no one knows how he survived."

Song Jue didn't respond, Xu Qingmu was really shocked.

Ling Gu continued to say with emotion: "Actually, before the elder brother came, some living souls strayed into Wujian, fantasizing that they could go out, and resisted not eating. Although they are already souls, they will not die. But not eating, it is really very painful. It's painful... and the eldest brother really survived and finally got out of Wujian. I don't know how much determination it takes."

Song Jue doesn't remember that he has been hungry for more than 1000 years, but he still remembers the feeling of being hungry - it would be better to die.

"At that time, elder brother often looked at the light in the distance and talked to himself." Ling Gu said with a smile, "He said, he must go out, but he still has nothing to say to that person, no matter what, he must go out, see you again to that person."

Xu Qingmu's brain exploded. He looked at Song Jue's calm side face, and the needle-like pain became more intense. He fell into a feeling of sadness and guilt, which he couldn't get away from at all.

Song Jue also turned to look at him, and the two just looked at each other silently.

At this moment, Chu Heping's surprised voice came from the door.

"Small question!"

Yu Wen suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately looked in the direction of the voice. Two ugly ghosts brought Chu Heping to this room.

Chu Heping immediately ran towards Yuwen, ignoring other people. He pulled Yuwen into his arms and said anxiously, "Why did you come here? It's too dangerous."

As he spoke, he protected Yuwen behind him.He is obviously an ordinary person, and his own life is on the line, but he still wants to protect Yuwen.

Yuwen had tears in his eyes, unable to say anything.

Song Jue stood up, nodded slightly to Ling Gu, and said, "People already know, thank you. We should go too."

Ling Gu also stood up, with a surprised expression on his face.

After a while, Ling Gu laughed, and said again: "Brother, are you leaving? Our two brothers finally met once, and I don't know if there will be a chance to see you again in the future. Why don't you stay a little longer? "

Song Jue absolutely had no memory, and no science of brotherhood, so he just gave an indifferent "hmm".

Ling Gu's face darkened, and he said again: "Brother, you have lost the memory of your previous life, can you still remember how to leave here?"

Song Jue squinted his eyes, and found a little bit of vague fragments in the chaotic memory. Although it was not too specific, Song Jue still said: "I vaguely know something, maybe I will remember it after trying."

Xu Qingmu also stood up with Song Jue, but he didn't know what Ling Gu and Song Jue were talking about now, his mind was still full of what Ling Gu said just now.

After 1000 years, how did Song Jue come here?
