Welcome to the game room of luck supremacy

The night passed with whispers in my ears.

Early the next morning, Shen Lin woke up amidst the noise, the outside of the temple was full of voices and the low cries of men and women.

On the side, the little boy lay on his stomach in the pile of straw, unwrapped his clothes in a daze, tore two pieces of meat and stuffed them into his mouth—the meat was completely cold, and the fat had turned into jelly and stuck to the surface. The part of it was black, and it was hard to the naked eye—he tore off the hard part with his sharp canine teeth, and chewed hard with his back molars, like a voracious wolf cub.

Seeing that Shen Lin woke up, the boy said lightly: "They are going to the forest to mourn and collect the corpses. They say they collect the corpses, but they can't tell who's bones are who, so they will dig a big pit and collect all the bones. stand up."

"Let's go," Shen Lin stood up, his body was clean and dust-free, he took Yan Xiuyi's hand and walked out of the temple, "Go and have a look."

"Hello." The boy suddenly called out to them. He was sitting there cross-legged, a light came in from a crack in the wall, and his dirty little face was clearly illuminated. His eyes were pitch black, and he could barely see an inch. White pupils.

Not far behind him is a Buddha statue with a severed head, holding a Dharma seal, still sitting in a compassionate posture.

He whispered, "Don't tell them I live here," he lowered his head a little, his chin resting on his knees, and lowered his eyes, "They don't like me, they're going to kick me out, they're going to kill me. "

The weather outside was fine, the sun was shining brightly, and bright rays of sunshine fell from the woods. This was not a day suitable for crying, but the mourning of the villagers for the loss of their loved ones made the sky dark.

No. 3 KP asked: "Are you going to follow quietly, or follow openly?"

"Follow quietly first," Shen Lin said, "Try sneaking."

Yan Xiuyi: "I just ordered 10 points, plus the default 20 points for a total of 30."

Shen Lin: "Me too, vote."

Shen Lin voted 30/20; Yan Xiuyi: 30/29, both of them passed on average.

After sneaking through, the two quietly followed behind the team. The cultivators walked gracefully, moved swiftly, and walked quietly. It was difficult for everyone to find them in the extremely sad situation.

They followed the crowd to the forest, and as the boy said, there were bones all over the place, even the ground was stained with blood, and the stench came over the face, making people retch.

KP said: "Pass the physique, check for one person."

The two passed their physiques one after another, and Yan Xiu lost 1 point of blood once he failed.

Shen Lin teased him: "No way, brother one, his cultivation level is higher than mine, but his physique is not as good as mine."

"Take a bite back." Yan Xiu bent down and kissed Shen Lin with familiar movements, as if the strange time between the two of them did not exist, this familiar feeling filled Shen Lin's heart.

People are very afraid of accidents, time, things, and words can cause accidents, and the greater the twists and turns, the greater the accidents. They have experienced many separations and reunions, from strangers to encounters again and again, and their relationship is still stable. deeply rooted in their hearts.

How precious is this, if you put it on one end of the scale, no matter what you put on the other end, it can't make it have any ups and downs.

Yan Xiu licked the corner of his lower lip and said with a smile, "It's full."

Shen Lin put her finger on her lips, and gave him a sideways glance: "There are corpses all over the place, is it reasonable for you to kiss this? Debauchery."

Yan Xiu didn't change his face: "The Bliss School is like this."

"You have cultivated to the point of failure, we don't have that kind of worldly desire, good boy."

Yan Xiu poked his head over, Shen Lin's hand froze, and raised his hand to touch his head.

No. 3 KP said with disgust: "Be serious!"

As kp's voice fell, the wailing sound resounded through the sky. An old woman seemed to have found the bones of her parents and child, and she lay on the ground and wailed loudly. Shen Lin's face sank a little, and he couldn't help frowning. Knowing that your relatives are close to death here, why send them here?"

"If you don't send them over, these old women, women and children will die," Shen Lin sighed softly, "I remember that child said that if the ceremony is not performed, the ghosts in the forest will come out, and they will devour women and children first." Children, chewing the bones of the old man, these people are trading their own lives for other people's life. What's more... this is not a big gamble, everyone who comes here vows before parting, saying that they can Going back, even if I stepped on the bones of my fellow countrymen, I failed to become the one who won the bet, and instead became a bone among the bones."

Both fell silent, and then said in unison: "Didn't you ever think about killing ghosts?"

Then there was silence again.

Those people picked up the bones, found a big pit and buried them, and let each other cry until their hearts were broken, and the bones in the tomb were also indifferent.

The soul returns to another land.

Everyone went back separately.

After Shen Lin saw it, he followed them back to the village. When he passed the ruined temple, he went in and took a look. The boy was not in the temple, and he didn't know what to do. There were some loose bundles on the ground, and there was not much meat left inside.

It seems that this temple is just a place where the little boy temporarily lives, no wonder he brought them here to stay without any concealment.

Shen Lin temporarily put aside the boy's affairs and went to the village.

There is only one road leading to the village from the deserted temple. Standing at the gate of the temple, you can get a glimpse of the general appearance of the village. Lingzhi.

When Shen Lin walked through the village, these villagers seemed to be normal, and they were not surprised by their sudden visit, and even a warm elder brother greeted him directly: "The village chief lives under the big banyan tree over there, you are going Find him." Be a conscientious guiding npc.

He looked up at the big banyan tree. The canopy was dense and huge, and it was many times bigger than the banyan tree in his conception. Shen Lin looked back and knocked on the door.

An octogenarian pushed open the door, slightly opened his eyes with vicissitudes, looked at Shen Lin, and said, "Two immortals passing by, come in and have a cup of tea."

Shen Lin entered the room, the room was not big, the furnishings were simple and tidy, there was a pot of hot tea on the table, and a stream of white mist was blowing from the spout of the pot.

"Immortal, please sit down." The old man opened the chairs for each of them and invited them to sit down.

Shen Lin asked suspiciously: "Thank you, old man. We have already fasted the grain, eat the wind and drink the dew, and don't eat the five grains of the world. I have a question, and I want to ask the old man to answer it."

"The fairy asks."

"I see that the people in the village have no defense against us. Are there often outside cultivators here?"

"That's right," the old village head said with a nod, "Since the old god opened his cave at the top of the mountain, more and more gods have come to ask him for advice, and the village has long since seen the strange things."

Shen Lin said clearly: "So that's the case."

But when I think about it, this is a small world that has been closed for a long time, how could there be outsiders?Thinking about it again, it may be a small world, but it may be a small world in another plane. They may have gone to a parallel time and space or traveled to this place at another time point.

While talking, a tall and strong young man came outside the door. He was wearing coarse linen trousers. His skin was tanned, but his eyes were very bright. When he smiled, his white teeth were particularly conspicuous. He greeted warmly: "Village Chief !The immortals are coming!"

"Almost forgot!" The village chief slapped his head and stood up, walked out the door with his cane on his back, turned his head and glanced at Shen Lin halfway, and hurriedly said to the young man before he could explain, "Huo Lian, please entertain me." Two fairy elders."

"Success!" The young man called Huo Lian patted his chest, "I'm sure I've entertained the two elders, go get busy!"

He turned his head and looked at the two of them with a smile, his eyes lit up: "You two are so good-looking! Immortal cultivators are good-looking, and you two are especially good-looking!"

Shen Lin: "..."

Seeing that the two didn't respond, Huo Lian scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, and said, "I'm sorry, I was so abrupt. I'm stupid. Do you two have tea? I'll pour you a cup of tea."

"No need," Shen Lin asked, "What is the village chief up to?"

"Yeah, I'm not busy with anything..." The man didn't dare to look into Shen Lin's eyes, he was obviously hiding something.

Fortunately, the little boy revealed it to them first, and Shen Lin guessed that he didn't want them, foreign cultivators, to find those people, so he covered it up.

"Too charming." Shen Lin said.

Yan Xiuyi: "..."

Shen Lin: "We are the Bliss School, we have to do something that the Bliss School does."

Yan Xiuyi: "Neither of us can do it."

Shen Lin: "It doesn't matter."

No. 3 KP asked speechlessly: "Will it work! Will it work?"

"Okay," Shen Lin said decisively, "Too charming."

Shen Lin throws Charm 3 points with great success!

No. 3 KP: "..."

Because of the great success, Shen Rin's charm was raised again to 72 points.

Because of the great success, Huo Lian was charmed by the success without confronting his will. When he looked at Shen Rin, he felt that this little fairy was very good-looking.

Shen Lin asked: "Master Huo, we want to go around the village, can you take us around?"

Huo Lian lowered his head shyly: "Don't call me Mr. Huo, if the elder doesn't mind, just call me A-Lian!"

Shen Lin: "..."

Yan Xiuyi: "..."

Before Shen Rin opened his mouth, Yan Xiu called out directly: "A Lian, please excuse me."

Shen Lin: "..."

Huo Lian was startled, and looked at Yan Xiuyi, the obsession in his eyes became colder, he stared at a pair of dimmed eyes, and replied very flatly, "Oh."

On the way, Shen Lin wanted to inquire about the news and asked, "When we came just now, we saw some villagers burying something in the forest. What were they doing?"

"Ah, that..."

Seeing that he was in a dilemma, Shen Lin smiled, and retreated to advance: "If it's inconvenient, just say it."

Huo Lian said: "No, no, it's just that I'm afraid of scaring the head of the fairy. There is a custom of offering sacrifices in the village, which is a bit cruel. It is to ask some villagers who are strong and able to eat to eat a giant beast in the forest. When we come back, the remaining people will be used as food for the mountain ghosts in the forest, so as to protect the village from the mountain ghosts' attacks."

"How long has this kind of sacrifice existed? Why didn't you work together to kill that mountain ghost?" Shen Lin asked.

"I wanted to kill him, but the village chief refused! It is said that someone tried to kill the mountain ghost, but it brought bad luck to the village. That mountain ghost couldn't be killed at all!"

"Where are the gods on the mountain?" Shen Lin asked again.

"The old god doesn't care about this. We begged the old god, but he couldn't move the mountain ghost. He said that the mountain ghost is the patron saint of the village. Although it will eat a few villagers, it can protect the children in the village to grow up healthily. , can also protect the inexhaustible food. It is strange to say that our village does not need to grow crops, but there is inexhaustible food."

"If you don't grow crops, where will the food come from?"

"It's everywhere in the woods. There's a lot of food in the woods where the mountain ghosts live, and sometimes livestock will suddenly crash to death on the stone pillars at the entrance of the village."

Inexhaustible food...?Then why does that boy say that he is always hungry?

"But I don't think it's right!" Huo Lian raised his voice unconsciously, "We don't need such a blessing, we can support ourselves, grow food and hunt by ourselves! We should find a way to kill the mountain ghost! I don't want to see the neighbor again Aunt Zhang was crying and sitting at the door waiting for her son to come home!"

"Growing crops?" Someone heard Huo Lian's voice and sneered sarcastically, "Do you know why the master regularly sends us to fetch the spiritual plants and minerals here? Because the land here is not suitable for you to grow crops at all, the master said Now, you and the mountain ghost did a fair deal, he provided you with food, and you provided them with food. Don’t try to change, or you will be the same as that person back then, harming your village.”

It sounded like people were feeding pigs to eat pork. It was clear that the mountain ghost was raising these villagers as food reserves.

Shen Lin turned around following the sound, and saw a young Taoist who looked similar to him weighing a few spirit stones while looking at them.

"Where did you get the fakes?" The man raised his eyebrows and said displeasedly, "Look at me, the Immortal peeled off this layer of skin on your body!"

KP No. 3 said: "Get ready, battle round."
