Ship of Theseus-05

As Wu Ce said before, it is indeed a very small pool.Perhaps because of the absence of sunlight for several days, the leaves that should have been green began to turn yellow, and they would wither immediately when they looked old, but they were not far behind.

And in the middle is a small rockery shallowly buried in the pool, and there are even clumps of moss growing in the crevices of the rocks.

There is a sunken cave in the middle of the rockery, and inside that cave is a small white pagoda, nine stories high, which looks like jade.

Wu Ce handed Yuyu to his colleagues before, and volunteered to lead them the way. Looking at the small tower now, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Is there a hole or a tower here?" She felt very unbelievable, "I have been a teacher in the fifth elementary school for four or five years, and I have never found it."

"It's not that you didn't discover it." Yan Le said, "Its existence was deliberately hidden by means."

This pagoda is placed here, and someone has set up a spiritual formation on it, and performed a strange art of armoring, so that ordinary people will subconsciously ignore the things here, and naturally they will not notice this small pagoda.

Gu Xi glanced at Yan Le, and after getting a nod from the other party, he shot the pagoda down with one shot.

Both of them can see that this small tower is the core of this formation.Although blindly destroying a formation that does not know its specific function in this way may lead to some terrible consequences, Gu Qi and Yan Le have enough confidence in themselves and think that no matter what happens, they can deal with it calmly, so There is no need to be too cautious.

The pagoda shattered at the sound, and accompanied by a strong Yin Qi that could not be ignored, it was like thousands of ghosts screaming and crying, and the resentment could almost corrode the skin and bones, far worse than the gloomy sky for terrible.

It was as if all the yin and death energy in Luocheng had gathered here.

Gu Xi's fingers curled up a little, a subconscious movement of wanting to pull the trigger.

He was supposed to be fearless. To Gu Qi, Yin Qi was like a mother's embrace. He could fully blend into it, like water and milk blending together, without any hindrance at all.

But this yin energy made Gu Xi feel very bad. Apart from the cold energy that filled his limbs and bones that he was familiar with, there seemed to be some other energy mixed in it.

Gray defeat, dead silence...

evil.

Before that, Gu Xi never thought that the power in this world would have a third form.It's neither spiritual power nor yin energy, it's the gray between black and white, like tiny swarms of insects that will attach to bones, and then devour them bite by bite until you don't even have a skeleton left.

The shattering of the white jade pagoda was just the beginning, because soon, there was an endless "click" sound, and the two-meter-high rockery in front of me collapsed, and the scattered stones fell into the pool water, splashing big and small. Small splashes.

And under the cracked rockery, there is a dark, long crack exposed, hidden in the water, covered by those lotus leaves, if you don't look carefully, you will almost ignore it like this.

"This is... a hidden road."

He raised his hand and threw a few talismans over, and the water in the pool seemed to be forced to the sides by an invisible barrier, so that crack could no longer blend into the surrounding environment naturally, but had to be completely exposed .

In all fairness, the appearance of this crack is really beautiful.A little bit of the inside is the darkness flowing with blue-purple starlight, which is dotted with shining silver starlight, which is more brilliant and beautiful than any gemstone in this world.

But in that, it really contains a sense of danger that cannot be ignored.It is the murderous intent hidden under the beauty.

Gu Xi pursed his lips.

He stopped Yan Le, and towards the latter raised a smile that was the same as his in the past, sufficiently presumptuous and proud to be bright.

"It's fine for me to go down, and Ale can stay on it?" Gu Xi said, "Although it looks dangerous, but when you look closely, it's just a place where Yin energy gathers. You know, this is for me There is no difficulty at all.”

But Yan Le would not agree just like that: "Everything below is unknown, and Luocheng is the place where the natural disasters of ghosts first broke out. I don't feel relieved if you are only allowed to go down alone."

"Ale!" Gu Qi called him again—it was so strange that Yan Le felt that he could hear a little bit of coquettishness from that voice, "I can go. Don't you know my ability? "

The banquet is still silent.

Seeing that Yan Le still did not let go, Gu Xi took another dose of strong medicine.

"Besides, there are too many unsolved mysteries in Luocheng. If I make some noise below, what will the survivors do? We should definitely leave one of us to guard them."

"It's the best choice for me to go down." Gu Xi paused, then turned his head away, "And..."

"You know, I don't want you to see another version of me."

Those who have been with Yin Qi for a long time cannot not be affected.However, Gu Xi, as a collection of yin qi, still stubbornly insists on his existence as a human being, and the impact on this aspect will only be more severe.

When he uses his own power excessively, or stays in an environment full of yin for too long, he will inevitably have a "degeneration" and deviate towards the ghost, and his appearance will naturally be affected .

Yan Le has always known this, and has expressed many times that he doesn't care.It's just that Gu Xi himself doesn't seem to be able to accept that kind of self, so he always refuses to be seen by Yan Le, which is almost a ghostly side.

"Ale—"

A warm, soft touch landed on the corner of Yan Le's lips, and it passed by like a dragonfly.The person who did such behavior pressed his own lips with his finger, looking at his surprisingly beautiful eyes.

"I'll just go down by myself, it's okay."

"You know I don't care." Yan Le sighed, but still respected Gu Qi's decision, "Well, since I have even accepted the [bribe], there seems to be no reason not to agree."

They reached an agreement on this, and Yan Le watched Gu Qi's back gradually disappear into the gap, but at a certain moment, it was extremely abrupt, and he felt something close to "heart palpitations".

"I might as well go down with you—"

Before Yan Le finished speaking, the crack flashed and disappeared.

In vain, he had an extremely weird and bad premonition, as if... that gap was a bait deliberately placed by a predator, a small lamp hanging above the head of an anglerfish, and the seductive aroma emitted by a pitcher plant.

But now, it got its most satisfying and desired prey, so it took back those disguises contentedly, and went to enjoy this delicious food wholeheartedly.

That was the last time Yan Le saw Gu Xi in this city of Luo.

***

It has been more than ten days since Gu Xi left alone that day.

Yan Le didn't receive any news from Gu Qi, even if she sent a message, there was no answer, as if that person had completely disappeared from this world.

Yan Le even began to wonder if Luo Cheng was the same in the eyes of the outside world, completely disappeared from all possible channels, and could not find any traces.

This situation continued for a few more weeks, and it was long enough for Yan Le to go out for a walk every day, and deal with all the monsters in Luo City one by one.

Like a long-awaited and forecasted storm, on a certain afternoon that was too gloomy and the air was sultry, the ground shook violently for no reason, as if something was moving violently below. It is moving, and will soon break through the surface and appear.

Standing on the roof of the teaching building, Yan Le looked at the continuous cracks on the ground below and the black yin energy escaping from the cracks. The smiles on her face finally disappeared, replaced by some kind of icy chill .

He pinched a formula, and there was an ice-blue aura flickering on his fingertips. Under the sky that was suddenly dimmed by the cloudy air, it turned out to be the only light in this world.

"The predestined sense of sound and hearing, the world of desire is colorless."

The icy aura shot up into the sky, fluttering and dancing behind him, the long rays of light intertwined with each other, faintly forming a huge ice blue lotus pattern.

The young man Ruyu's face became more transparent when looked at, not in a trance like a scene in the world, but stained with an untouchable, out-of-the-mortal meaning.

"That's why I ask for advice to transform all living beings who are difficult to adjust, to show the appearance of wrath, to protect a corner of the land, and to show brilliant and magnificent light."

The mixed yin energy fell into his eyes, distorted into a huge glaring ghost face suspended in the air, opened its huge mouth towards the teaching building, and let out a silent roar, as if to count all 46 living people in it devour.

Inside the teaching building, several teachers tried their best to appease the children's emotions, following the instructions from the young man who claimed to be a celestial master, and could not step out of the teaching building no matter what.

The dark ghost face was getting closer and closer, and in the end it was even tightly attached to the window glass, as if it could break through the window in the next second.

They shrank back, but heard the chuckle from above their heads.

"Disciple Yan Le, set up the seal of the Ming King of the Ten Directions here today."

Along with the invitation came the Buddha's light that exploded suddenly in his eyes, soaring straight into the sky, even splitting the shadows of the sky.There is a ray of skylight drawn from behind the clouds, illuminating the long dark night, as if the eyes of gods and Buddhas are hanging down from the world.

The king of Ming's seal is clearly visible, so scorching that people cannot look directly at it.

"I ordered you to eliminate evil spirits and suppress the veins of the earth..."

The smile on the boy's face widened.

"—Bless me all directions."

Ming Wangyin fell in response to the sound, and there were Sanskrit sounds curling up in a trance, and fairy music fluttering.The pitch-black ghost face was repelled, and the colorful radiance enveloped the entire teaching building, no matter how the yin energy outside raged and danced, it couldn't disturb the place in the slightest.

As if realizing that such behavior was not effective, the yin energy that built the ghost face suddenly shrank, and finally turned into a human form.

More precisely, it is a form that is attached to someone and extends infinitely, like a huge coat.

And the young man at the core of this human figure lowered his head, his slightly long forehead hair covered half of his face, revealing only a little golden light in his eyes.He was suspended by thin black threads, and his arms, fingers, neck, waist, thighs, calves, and all joints were all wrapped with black threads, like a puppet standing on the stage and being manipulated.

The black line moved up and down, so the young man raised his head, his beautiful face was expressionless, his eyes were empty, like two glass beads stuffed in, he was the most noble and beautiful doll.

The black silk thread raised his arm, his five fingers spread out, and then closed again, and what he held in his hand were two silver-white guns, the muzzles of which were pointed at Yan Le.Black ghost lines grew wantonly on his skin, and two ghost horns pierced the flesh and blood on his forehead, and pointed fangs protruded from his lips.The pale bones extend from the joints, presenting the shape of barbs, which are sufficiently miserable and beautiful.

Dangerous enough.

Behind him there was a pitch-black shadow billowing, and finally opened violently. It was a huge gauze-like phosphorous wing that could almost occupy half of the sky in terms of visual effect alone, and countless eyes were distributed on it.

At this moment, these eyes opened suddenly at the same time, the scarlet eyeballs turned, and finally locked on the direction of feasting.

Yan Le's eyes widened, her pupils shrank sharply, and she could no longer maintain her gentle appearance.

"Gu Qi?!"
