Chapter 218 The Returner
In the early morning, a ray of golden sunlight shines into the palace. The light passes through the ice and is constantly refracted, making the palace suddenly brighter. Wu Gen and others were gnawing on the snow rabbit cooked by the holly bird while discussing how to get from here.
Get away.
The door of the main hall suddenly opened, and the figure of the woman yesterday appeared at the door. The morning light was faint, and the rays of sunlight lingered on her fat skin, covering her long white hair with a layer of brilliant colors. The woman walked slowly, her sleeves were fluttering in the wind, and her hair was flying.
, quite the appearance of ice and snow emerging from the dust, as bright and pure as the blooming epiphyllum.
Everyone looked in a daze and waited until the woman walked in front of them before they all stood up. Wu Gen looked at her wrist and saw that there was no red string attached to her. He couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart and took the lead to greet her.
"This girl..." Wu Gen was about to speak, but the woman interrupted her and said softly: "Outlander, come with me." After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the palace.
Wu Gen looked back, quickly dropped the rabbit legs in his hands, and followed him.
After leaving the main hall, the woman walked along a narrow step towards the mountain step by step. The other five people followed carefully behind her, stepping on the smooth ice steps, either in the bottomless canyon or the bottom of the mountain.
It is a cliff covered with ice cones. If you make a wrong move, you will be like snowflakes occasionally picked up by the wind, drifting and disappearing between the sky and the earth.
The woman's walking speed was not very fast, and she seemed to take care of everyone else's pace. Passing by houses made of ice, passing tall nine-story blue icicles, walking in a white world, time and space seemed
It was a bit confusing. Wu Gen had the illusion that if there were not those tall igloos and icicles for reference, he would really think that the group of people were walking in place.
While walking on the road, Wu Gen spoke several times, but the woman didn't pay any attention to her. She seemed to be in a bad mood. Everyone knew what was going on and didn't say anything anymore, but silently followed her up the stairs.
The woman finally stopped. There was no snow in front of her, only blue ice covering the mountain peaks. Two huge glaciers were like two gates, guarding the entrance to a canyon.
When she reached the entrance, the woman turned around and walked lightly in front of Wu Gen. Looking at the woman's eyes like a lake of ice, Wu Gen felt inexplicably flustered. The woman looked down at the red rope on Wu Gen's wrist and wrinkled slightly.
He raised his eyebrows and stretched out a slender finger. The finger slowly moved forward, reaching towards the center of Wu Gen's eyebrows.
For a moment, everyone's eyes followed the woman's finger. The finger came to an inch between Wu Gen's eyebrows and stopped, motionless.
At the mouth of the canyon, no one dared to ask. There was only the low whistle of the wind blowing through the canyon, and the rustling of clothes that could not be disturbed by the wind.
Gudong, the sound of Baoxiang swallowing saliva came from the silence, interrupting the tranquility here at an inappropriate time. The woman was awakened, her empty eyes filled with light again, her fingers gently touched Wu Gen's eyebrows, and a trace of black air flowed from her forehead.
It came out and wrapped around the woman's finger.
Looking at the black air with some disgust, a little white light lit up at the woman's finger. Under the white light, the black air melted like snow meeting the scorching sun, and finally disappeared.
Wu Gen looked at the woman with some surprise. Of course he was familiar with this black energy. It was the chaos in the soul. But he had used very powerful methods to remove it, but he didn't expect that there was still chaos lurking in it.
"Xuetong said there is something dirty on your body. The front is the place where those who have returned to the truth are returning. Such evil spirits are not allowed to enter." The woman spoke softly and gave a rare explanation. Without waiting for Wu Gen to thank her, she turned around and walked into the canyon.
Wu Gen hurriedly followed, finally feeling relieved. The woman's move at least showed that she had no ill intentions.
As soon as he entered the canyon, Wu Gen's heart beat wildly again. He couldn't help but take two steps back, and bumped into Shui Congyue who looked shocked. In the blue ice walls on both sides of the canyon, rows of
The people stand prominently among them.
These people lowered their heads and closed their eyes, stacked on top of each other, all facing the same direction, like devout believers, praying devoutly. On top of each person's head, there is a white flower with three petals blooming on the surrounding ice walls.
Under the reflection, a blue light glows. All the way forward, the ice wall is full of people like this, arranged from the bottom to the top of the ice wall.
The woman did not look sideways and continued to move forward slowly. Wu Gen and others had no choice but to suppress the fear in their hearts and follow her forward.
Walking under the ice wall,
Looking at the countless people around them, the heavy depression made the six of them feel like they were walking on the bottom of the sea, and their breathing was not smooth. Even though they had experienced many lives and deaths, and had seen even weirder scenes, they could not see this with their own eyes.
Many people died in the ice, still suffering from heart palpitations.
The woman in white clothes and the frozen corpse on the ice wall, one blue and one white. This strong contrast made the six people's eyes towards the woman more complicated.
After walking for about an hour, the sky gradually darkened, and the dim light coming from the ice walls on both sides made everything in the canyon seem unreal. Walking in this blue canyon, you can't help but feel like you have entered the underworld.
Finally, the woman stopped and turned around slowly. Behind her, on the tall stone platform, there was a bird's nest more than ten feet in size. It was like a brain with bones removed, and its skin was covered with wrinkles. From time to time, bright lights flashed in the ravines.
Above the bird's nest, there are white flames jumping. The flames are so cold that people can't feel any heat. Looking at the weird bird's nest, the six of them felt in a trance, as if they themselves had become a trace of the flame and wanted to dance with it.
.
Wu Gen bit his lip, and the hairs on his body stood up. This scene was so similar to the scene in Yushi Mountain, except that this spiritual residence was much bigger. Unfortunately, such a large spiritual residence, Shui Congyue and the others
Can you bear it?
Looking back in horror, he found that Shui Congyue and others were all looking dull, staring at the flames in the center of the spirit. "Leave quickly." Wu Gen stepped forward anxiously, pushing the few people who were standing there, but they didn't get anything.
Any reaction. Even the holly bird seemed to have been cast a restraining spell, standing still and motionless.
"Are you here to follow them?" A woman's voice came from behind. Wu Gen turned his head and followed the woman's fingers to look at the ice wall. There was no one around, only the frozen corpses were speechless.
"No." Wu Gen replied decisively, not wanting to have anything to do with these frozen corpses.
"Oh, I thought you were their descendant, following the footsteps of your predecessors and coming here to gain eternal life." The woman responded indifferently, as if she didn't care about the result, and just stared at Wu Gen's wrist.
"I, I can give this back to you." Wu Gen quickly raised his wrist, "Although I don't know what it is, it feels quite precious."
The woman's brows slowly wrinkled, her eyes became cold, and her long white hair flew wildly without any wind.
"I was wrong." Wu Gen clasped his hands together and quickly begged for mercy, although he didn't know where he was wrong.
Nonsense, although the other party didn't say anything, he was obviously angry. Facing a cold woman, a woman who can control her own life and death, what's wrong with admitting her mistake? Even if the other party is also at fault, as long as she doesn't admit it, it will naturally be her own fault.
The woman sighed, turned to Lingju, and stopped talking to Wu Gen.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Wu Gen poked his head around and quietly looked at the woman's expression. After waiting for a moment, looking at the woman who looked like a stone sculpture, and worrying about Shui Congyue and others, Wu Gen still mustered up the courage to speak: "Let's talk about this.
Girl, I don’t know how to call you yet, my name is Wu Gen, they are all my teammates.”
The woman didn't look back and waited for a moment before saying, "My name is Wu Yi."
"Ahem." Wu Gen became more courageous. As long as the other party is willing to answer, there will be a solution. "Miss Wu, what is this place? Why do you say these people are here for eternal life."
"This is the place where those who have returned to their true nature live." The woman glanced at Wu Gen, hesitated and then explained: "These people are devotees. They voluntarily dedicated their souls to the spiritual residence. With the blessing of the spiritual residence, their souls will live forever.
There is no need to worry about death. Some people are from Beizhou and have never left since then."...
The woman spoke briefly, but Wu Gen also heard it. Some of the people who died in the ice wall were from Beizhou, and maybe they were the people in the cave in Yushi Mountain. But according to Wu Yi's words
, it can’t be said that the soul is still alive after death. It’s just that he left this body and entered the spiritual dwelling. The spiritual dwelling can nourish the spiritual body, and the soul will naturally survive for a long time.
Suddenly hearing this strange thing, Wu Gen couldn't help but be a little confused. The soul is immortal, but this body has lost its body and is like a lonely ghost. What is the meaning of such eternal life? Moreover, Wu Yi in front of him said that
What is the relationship between those who have returned to their true nature and these souls that live forever in the spiritual home?
He was about to ask, but when he saw Wu Yi's cold face, he had to turn around and ask: "This is obviously a place of nobility, why is Miss Wu willing to let a few of us outsiders come here?"
Wu Yi pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "A few days ago, Lingju speculated that our clan's opportunity had arrived, and sent me out to look for it. Lingju once said that those who can relieve their worries are where the opportunity lies, but they don't want to accept it.
On your body."
"Opportunity?" Wu Gen was a little confused when he heard this. What virtues and abilities could he be so valued by those who have returned to his true nature? What's more, he is a spiritual dweller. It sounds a bit incredible. "I don't know where this idea of chance comes from. What is the concern?
What."
"I don't know what the chance is, but at the moment I can only think that it may be a soul song." Wu Yi was also a little confused, "All those who have returned to their true form are from the spiritual abode, and there are many souls of devotees in the spiritual abode.
The importance of the soul song is self-evident." At this point, Wu Yi paused, with a strange expression on his face, and pointed to Wu Gen's wrist, "This is the Qian Nian."
This red rope is called Qian Nian. Sure enough, he is the chosen one. Feeling proud, Wu Gen secretly thought to himself, it turns out that the other party is coveting his own soul song. Since he wants something, it is easy to say. He rubbed his chin with confidence.
road,"
Well, I know some soul songs. But practicing soul songs is quite difficult. It requires both talent and intelligence, as well as hard work. If the witch girl is willing to learn, I can teach you a lesson, but it will take a long time.
It might take longer."
Wu Gen also learned his lesson this time. Since people already know about the Soul Song, it is better to take the opportunity to negotiate some conditions. Otherwise, if the other party, like the Ming Clan, uses some means to force him, the Soul Villain will have collapsed.
, what should this returnee do if he makes a mistake and extinguishes his own soul fire?
"I already know the soul song, there is no need to teach it anymore." Wu Yi remained calm and sat down, "My clan already has the soul song. When you released your thoughts yesterday, you just took the opportunity to compare with your understanding.
After a while."
"Oh." Wu Gen was speechless. Others had already learned how to do it. How could he be pretentious? He couldn't help but said: "Since the girl has already learned how to do it, why did you bring us here?"
Wu Yi looked at Lingju with a confused expression and said quietly: "Did you know that there are actually three types of soul music, namely Yu Jing Qu, Yi Ling Qu and Qi Guang Qu. What you know is just Yu Jing Qu.
Our clan has deduced some of the Yi Ling Qu, but we are still far away from completely deducing it. As for the Qi Guang Qu, I have only heard of its name, but no one has ever seen it.
The opportunity we want is not the present, but the future. If one day you can realize the other two soul songs, please teach them to our clan. Of course, before that, if you have any request, our clan will also
