Perhaps it was because the former master Gu died so suddenly, Shi Ying seldom acted separately from Gu Yusheng, and always felt that if he was not careful, this apprentice might run to fight some monster and lose his life for nothing.Even after years of observation, he has realized that Gu Yusheng is not a single-minded stupefied young man, and his mentality has not changed.

The lives of sword cultivators are mostly boring. If they don't go out on missions, they just practice swords in the mountains. The only way to rest is to sit in a daze facing the vast Lingshan.As the strongest sword cultivator, Gu Yusheng has fully adapted to this kind of life since he was a teenager. Except for occasionally looking at his master from a distance and dreaming, his life is only practice and swordsmanship, and he never knows what pleasure is.

When Shi Ying stepped into the gate of the courtyard, Gu Yusheng was meditating on a tree, which was the best view of the entire courtyard, no matter where someone came, he could clearly see it at a glance.

"Master, you are back!"

Shi Yingcai revealed a corner of his clothes, and Jianxiu in Tsing Yi immediately got up to meet him.Gu Yusheng glanced at the master calmly, and immediately noticed that Shi Ying's hair was missing on the left side, and his eyes suddenly darkened, and he hurriedly asked, "Did you have an accident?"

Over the years, the young boy has grown into a qualified sword repairman.Hanging around his waist is the Flower Picking Sword, which ranks No. [-] in the list of magic weapons. He can use the Sword God Art that can change the color of the situation by raising his hand. Even his eyesight has been qualitatively improved, and he can detect the abnormality of the master just by clues.Shi Ying thought that if he fought seriously, he might not be able to beat the current Gu Yusheng.

Knowing this, he took a deep look at his apprentice, but only said indifferently to Shen Fengyuan: "Senior brother, we found that the tip of Bing Canzi's tongue has the symptoms of a cuckoo crying blood, please find a chance to take a look at Xuan Qizi with your heavenly eyes. "

Shen Fengyuan didn't know the little secret between their master and apprentice, and felt strange when he heard the words, but since Shi Ying made a request, he still nodded and said: "How could they get involved with this matter? Wait a minute, I Go check it out."

"Trouble brother, I'll wait for your news here."

Facing Shen Fengyuan, Shi Ying's tone was normal, and he didn't look at Gu Yusheng who was suddenly silent.When Shen Fengyuan dragged Tian Fangzi away, he found a stone bench and sat down leisurely, tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, then raised his eyes to look at his apprentice, and said with unprecedented severity in his words, "Gu Yusheng, What do you want to say?"

Gu Yusheng's face sank after hearing Du Juan's cry of blood, and the hand that was about to check Master's hair was also weakly withdrawn. With such a reaction, Shi Ying believed that he would not understand his situation, and just waited quietly. Follow the apprentice to reply.

Shi Ying anticipated Gu Yusheng's various reactions, and prepared countermeasures in her mind.He thought he could keep calm no matter what situation he encountered, but unexpectedly, Gu Yusheng didn't make any resistance, just knelt heavily in front of him.

This person didn't know how to protect himself since he was a child. At this time, even on the cold bluestone ground, he kneels as soon as he says, and the sound of his knees touching the ground hits his ears. After a few minutes, he eased his tone and said, "Get up and talk, I have no intention of punishing you."

The distress that flashed in Shiying's eyes didn't even notice him, but Gu Yusheng saw it, and he didn't get up when he heard the words, but just grabbed the hand of Master who wanted to help him, and said with a light smile: "I It has been nearly five years since I joined the master's school, and the master has never said a serious word to me, I know, the master treats me very well."

That's because you have always been well-behaved and never did anything that required me to reprimand you.

Shi Ying originally wanted to answer in this way, but when she saw Gu Yusheng's nostalgic expression at this time, she subconsciously stopped speaking.Although he was unreasonable, he could feel that this was not an answer that would make Gu Yusheng happy.

But what answer does this apprentice want?The master cares about the disciples. Apart from the duty that the master and the disciples should perform, what reason can there be?

This momentary distraction made Shi Ying's expression terrified, and he found that he was almost surrounded by Gu Yusheng again. This apprentice already understood his temperament and seemed to cooperate, but he could always deliberately divert the topic in his words. Tough suspect.

Now that he was aware of this, he went straight to the point without giving Gu Yusheng any chance to influence him, "Gu Yusheng, you said that you were kidnapped by Snake Girl when you were six years old, and when you came back, you found that your relatives were gone, so you started alone life. But when you returned to Beizhong County, you were already ten years old, where were you during the four years of missing?"

Shi Ying is not good at thinking about emotional issues. Gu Yusheng originally wanted to use this to distract him, but he didn't expect that Master had already figured out his method. After hearing this, he knew that resistance was useless, so he could only hold Shi Ying's hand tightly. With a wry smile, he revealed the truth that had been concealed for many years, "Master, Gu Yusheng is not the name my parents gave me."

Since ancient times, parents have named their children in the hope that they will live a long life and have no worries. Such a name for the rest of their lives sounds a bit unlucky.And this was not originally a beautiful wish from the parents.

Shi Ying is Gu Yusheng's most respected and beloved person, he will not lie to his master, what he said back then is the truth.He was indeed taken to the north by Aunt Snake when he was six years old, but he skipped some details and did not say clearly.

Beizhong County is the closest to the Corpse God Sect, and has been harassed by it since ancient times. Every year, living people are offered as tributes to Snake Girl.Later, the Corpse God Sect was destroyed by the East Spirit Sword Pavilion, and these customs were also interrupted. The people in the county thought that everything was over, but who knew that in that year, Snake Girl suddenly appeared again to cause trouble.

In this era, people in the world hope that there will be a monk in their family, and from then on one person will be able to ascend to heaven, so every family is trying to have more children, hoping that one or two of them will be favored by the sect.The same is true for the Gu family in the cup, but it's a pity that they were unlucky. They gave birth to five children in a row without any cultivation qualifications. On the contrary, they added a burden to the family, and it was very difficult to provide for the children to go to school.

Gu Si is the fourth child in the family. Since he is still young, his father has no time to find a husband to give him a nickname, so he only uses a baby name like Si'er.Until being dragged out of the window by Snake Gu, Gu Si didn't have a name of his own, and he will never have a chance to have one in the future.

The six-year-old boy still doesn't know what happened, and he doesn't actually remember what happened. He only knows that he heard noises from the outside world that night. He called his parents many times but no one answered. He opened the window out of curiosity.Then, he was pulled out by a hand.He was frightened and wanted to cry, but he was tightly wrapped by the snake's tail. He was getting farther and farther away from home like this, bumped into a stone, and passed out.

After waking up, he was already in the dark, surrounded by people, men, women, old and young. The painful panting and crying made the boy frightened. He wanted to call his parents, but when he opened his mouth, he coughed and his mouth was full. It was fishy and sweet. After a long time, he realized that it was blood.

All the people locked up in this place are seriously ill. At the beginning, they just cough up blood. As time goes by, their eyes will shed blood and tears uncontrollably. Both fear and sadness will lead to the deterioration of the condition, and only joy can be slightly suppressed.Therefore, although everyone is struggling on the verge of life and death, they keep forcing themselves to laugh. Even if they see familiar people falling down one by one, they still have to smile and not shed a single tear.

Gu Si didn't know where this was, and he didn't know what these people were doing. He wanted to cry, but he didn't dare to cry. He could only look at the crazy crowd with his eyes wide open, curled up in the corner alone, waiting for never Rescue will come.

Afterwards, everyone except him was silent, no one cried, no one laughed anymore, only the stench of human corpses gradually decomposing spread.He vomited at first, then numb and sat quietly among the corpses, waiting for the moment when he would drop and join them.

However, he did not die.

On the third day when there were no more sounds around, the person delivering food opened the prison door, and the boy who was so thin that only a handful of bones remained opened his eyes blankly. Hearing that the voice was not very old, he sized him up and said in surprise, "It was a child who survived this time?"

At that time, Gu Si was shrouded in fear, and finally saw a living person. He couldn't bear it any longer, and cried and begged that person:

"Big brother, please let me go, I want to go home."

"Go home? Don't you even know what happened? Poor kid."

When he heard this word, the man's tone was very mocking, he looked down at the child who was clinging to the corner of his clothes, as if he had found a new joy, and suddenly said: "How about we make a bet, I will let you Go back, if someone dares to take you in, I will let you go. But if you can't go back, you have to obey my arrangement, and you are not allowed to disobey."

The boy finally had a chance to be saved, and his expression was full of surprise: "Really?"

The man chuckled, and the mockery in his tone remained undiminished, "I'm not going to lie to a child."

His actions did not conform to the arrangement, and someone from behind reminded him in a low voice: "My lord, is this not good?"

However, this person's identity seems to be extremely valuable, and he is not afraid of violating the rules at all. He just said coldly: "A container that has no will to survive is too easy to damage. I need a container that fully cooperates, and he is very suitable."

The boy's world is simple and clear. He believed the man's words, and followed the man back to Cupong County with the hope of being saved.The moment he really saw the door of the house, he ran to the door excitedly. He had already seen his mother busy in the house, and his brothers sitting at the table chatting. As long as he stepped through this door, he would be saved, and he would never have to go back. To that piece of hell.

However, the moment she saw him, her mother's face turned ashen for an instant, and she closed the door of the house heavily without even saying a word to him, just like this to keep the missing son out.

He didn't understand why this happened. Looking at the man in white who was getting closer behind him, he knocked on the door in fear and shouted: "Mom, I'm back, open the door!"

All the family members were inside the door, but no one responded to him. He remembered that whenever he had a cold in the past, his mother would feel distressed and even allowed him not to go to school.He is so sick now, coughing up blood every day, no matter how angry my mother is, she will not be willing to shut him out, she just doesn't know.

So, he begged in a crying voice: "Mom, I'm sick, I bleed a lot, and I feel very uncomfortable every day, can you go and fetch medicine for me?"

However, no one opened the door for him. He wanted to live, so he tried his best to open the door and tried to impress his family, "Mother, I will be obedient. I will study hard tomorrow. My husband praised me Smart, I'm not a useless child, can you let me go home? They're coming to catch me, I'm afraid!"

"Si'er, forgive me..."

Perhaps because he was crying so much, there was finally a sad response from the door, but the content made him feel cold.It was the voice of his mother who cared for him since he was a child. He used to be able to sleep peacefully with good dreams just by listening to this voice and telling stories. Now, it is also the voice that declares that he will never wake up from a nightmare in his life.

He heard the woman struggling to open the door, but in the end there was only a sound of pushing and pushing, and all the tables and chairs were pushed to the door to block the door. In the end, only the panicked voice of the elder brother came: "Hurry up, once Miss Snake knows the sacrifice Run away, our whole family will not survive!"

On that day, six-year-old Gu Si cried for a long time outside the house, but no one rescued him. All the neighbors closed the doors and windows, and even his relatives never went out to see him.

In the end, only the man in white came up to him and chuckled at him: "You lost."

Only then did he realize that everything was not a coincidence, that Aunt Snake needed sacrifices, and the sheriff chose their family.That night, his father had already hung the sacrificial offering brand in front of Gu Si's room, no matter whether he opened the window or not, Snake Girl would come to welcome the offering.His parents had many children, and it would not be too much loss to lose one fourth son with ordinary qualifications. Even if he was sad, he would just have another one in the future.They would not fight evil cultivators for a child, because they were afraid of revenge from evil cultivators, and they did not dare to seek help from righteous cultivators. A problem that could be solved with a sacrifice, no one wanted to bleed themselves.

The reason is very simple, but the boy couldn't accept it. He cried and asked, "Why?"

At that time, the man in white gently wiped his tears and said to him: "Silly boy, the world is so filthy, so we must clean up all this garbage. As long as the dirty souls never reincarnate, the leftovers will be It is a pure land of only good people.

It's a pity that these ordinary monks don't understand His Holiness' Sacred Heart at all, and even join forces with sinners to regard us as a cult.You are different from them. You have survived the sins of the world of mortals. You are the soul of the holy spirit who has accumulated merits in the previous life. "

Gu Si couldn't understand what the man was saying, but no one wanted him except this man, so he could only tighten the man's sleeves and tremblingly said: "Don't lock me back, I'm afraid."

Seeing his reaction, the man gently stroked his head and said with a smile: "Well, I promise you, as long as you obey and endure until the end, I will let you out."

At that time, the boy didn't know what he was going to face at all, he just grasped the only hope, and replied anxiously, "Okay."

And the man in white also got the experimental product he was satisfied with, and led him back to the dark hell. He said, "Welcome to Jingshizong, my reincarnated soul boy."

Gu Si has been waiting, who will save him, who will bring him back to the bright world, who will tell him that this is just a nightmare, and after waking up from the dream, everything will be the same as usual, nothing has changed.

However, until Beizhong County completely disappeared from sight, no one came.And he can only be led to the place where there is no light, as if the next step is the endless abyss.

From Feng Yi to Gu Yusheng now, thousands of years have passed, this world seems to have not changed much, his life is still a mess.

Fortunately, although his celestial grass had a bad memory and forgot about him, and was late on the road for a long time, it finally came to him again.

The author has something to say: Shi Ying: Come on, what did you hide from me?

Gu Yusheng (takes out glass shards and stuffs them into his mouth): Master, I was wrong!

Shi Ying: Stop it, you are not allowed to pick up things and eat them, spit them out for me!
