"Speaking of this, I heard some rumors on the road when I came here." Lin Youyu knocked on the coffin beside him and made a few soft noises, "I heard that there was a great power who lost a magic weapon. That magic weapon can
Put up a barrier to block the next attack from the Nascent Soul stage. Originally, this matter was nothing, but now that I heard you talk about it, I actually remembered it."
"Magic weapon?" Pei Ziyan asked in confusion. Is there such a coincidence in the world? "Well, I heard that the barrier set up by the magic weapon can only allow people allowed by the owner to pass through. Otherwise, it can only be destroyed."
But for a blow in the Nascent Soul stage, even Pei Ziyan and Lin Youyu couldn't achieve that level with their combined strength. Even if they tried their best to break it, there was no guarantee of the mountain god's strength. Huan
"Now it seems that it may be best to approach the other party first." Chao Huan concluded this way.
Pei Ziyan and Lin Youyu had no objection, so the three of them planned to sneak into the seventeen brides and take the opportunity to contact the mountain god.
After gathering her attention, Pei Ziyan said she was going to check on the others and left. Only Chao Huan and Lin Youyu were left in the room.
Even so, Chao Huan took Lin Youyu back to her room and asked Lin Youyu to set up a soundproof barrier before the two started talking.
"Young fish, did the sky call you here?" Chao Huan asked.
Chao Huan was also a little surprised that it was Lin Youyu who came. The original plan conveyed by Lian Yunlan was just to ask Chao Huan to find an opportunity to find helpers. She knew that the helpers were arranged by Zhou Kong, but she
I didn't expect it to be Lin Xiaoyu.
Lin Youyu was sitting on the bed, with the coffin standing next to her. This scene looked a bit weird, but Lin Youyu's smiling look made people feel weird.
"Well, because I am the one who is closest. And I also want to see A Huan. Does A Huan miss me?"
"I miss the young fish too." Chao Huan responded with a smile.
Lin Youyu is a person of Ju Kong Jin. Perhaps because she is a corpse cultivator, Lin Youyu has always been rejected by the world of cultivation. However, she is a very strong and optimistic girl. Even before she met Ju Kong Jin, she was
Although I suffered a lot, I was still able to remain optimistic and positive in the rest of my life.
Chao Huan and Lin Youyu got acquainted because of the arrangement of the day sky. He originally asked the two to perform tasks together. At that time, Chao Huan was still sinking in the shadow of the past, but Lin Youyu was infected by the sunshine.
Although the story did not go so smoothly, the final result was good. The two became good friends. Even if she didn't know what Chao Huan was doing, she firmly chose to help Chao Huan.
Just like this time, after the news of the end of the day came, she came over without hesitation.
"Where's You'an, how are you doing lately?" The two chatted like ordinary people, and Chao Huan's eyes fell on the coffin that Lin Youyu carried with him.
Facing that terrifying coffin, not only did she not show any strange emotions, she even showed some tenderness in it.
"Ah, You'an is very nice too. You'an also misses Ah Huan very much."
Lin Youyu smiled and opened the coffin beside him. The coffin slowly opened, revealing a green corpse inside.
It was the body of a child, a boy of about eleven or twelve years old, lying peacefully in the coffin. His face was pale gray, as if he had died a long time ago, but under the gaze of the two people, he slowly opened his eyes.
He opened his eyes, revealing a pair of dark pupils without a trace of white.
Looking into eyes like that would make other people a little scared or frightened, but Chao Huan did not avoid it. She looked at the child and saw that it was like a quiet night inside.
She gently called out the other person's name, "You'an, long time no see."
Lin Youan didn't answer. He walked out of the coffin and just bent his neck blankly towards Chao Huan.
Lin Youyu and Lin Youan are standing together. One is taller and the other is shorter, one is human and the other is corpse, but they look so harmonious. If you can suppress the fear in your heart and take a closer look at that blue-grey face, you will find that they
There are actually some similarities.
The two are twin siblings, but as the elder sister, Lin Youyu has gradually grown up, while Lin Youan, who has died long ago, retains the same appearance as when he died.
"Hehe, You'an is just embarrassed. In fact, he also wants to see Ah Huan. He has been urging me along the way." Lin Youyu smiled broadly and held Lin Youan beside him in his arms without hesitation.
As she grew older, she was already a little taller than the other person and could hold him firmly in her arms.
She didn't know if it was Chao Huan's illusion, but she seemed to see a trace of helplessness on Lin Youan's stiff face.
"Well, I know, I also want to see Youan."
After reminiscing about old times, the two began to talk about business. Lin Youan could not speak, but he stood aside obediently and listened to the two of them.
"I'm here this time. There aren't many instructions from Ju Kong Jin. They just asked me to try my best to help you."
"Yeah." Chao Huan nodded, not surprised, "Zukong Jin has already told me some plans, but you also know that person. The best performance for him is to deceive himself.
past."
So many times, Chao Huan didn't know what the arrangements were for Ji Kong, and just let things take their own course.
"That's right. Well, Ji Kong Jin is pretty good in other places, but it's a pity that he's a pervert." Lin Youyu said sadly. Unlike Chao Huan, she didn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark.
.
Chao Huan couldn't help but laugh. She glanced at Lin Youyu and pretended to be serious: "You, be careful not to let him listen. You will be rewarded when the time comes."
Lin Xiaoyu suddenly became alert, patted his mouth, and quickly said that he would stop talking nonsense.
Chao Huan thought about some things that Juukong would do as much as possible, and briefly told Lin Youyu a few things to pay attention to. The rest would still need to be seen how Juukong wanted to perform this play.
After talking for a while, the sky outside the window gradually darkened. Chao Huan wanted Lin Youyu to stay here for the night, but Lin Youyu refused.
"Forget it, I just took a look, and there are only two old people here. I will take Youan to be careful to scare them. I will just take Youan outside for a walk. We don't need to rest anyway."
Chao Huan had no choice but to let her go.
The next day was the appointed day of the full moon. When Chao Huan was still guessing when the mountain god would come, Lin Youyu discovered something strange where the seven women were.
A new piece of paper fluttered on the bamboo pole, saying that the mountain god would come to greet his bride at sunset.
The three of them looked at each other. There were still a few hours before the sun set. If they wanted to blend in with the bride, they still needed to dress up.
There were not many suitable women in the village. Although the village chief persuaded her several times and made promises again and again, there were only seven who were willing to do such a dangerous thing.
Even after adding those seven, there are now only fifteen, one person short of the required seventeen.
Chao Huan said: "Just in time, we are sneaking in three more."
"But, you are a mortal, but if you encounter any danger..." Lin Youyu frowned, somewhat disapproving.
"It doesn't matter. These women who are willing to accompany us in danger are all mortals. What's important is that you two are still here. I believe you can defeat the mountain god and save us all."
Chao Huan said with a smile, Lin Youyu felt a little embarrassed by her, and finally blushed and decided to work hard.
The three of them discussed it and borrowed three suitable red clothes. After changing them, they simply dressed up. Although they were a bit shabby, they still looked a bit like a bride.
As soon as Chao Huanpu appeared, she attracted the attention of the other two people. Lin Youyu praised her for her beauty, but in her heart she still felt that the original Chao Huan was more beautiful.
Pei Ziyan was stunned for a moment. The cold-faced girl in front of her was dressed in red, blooming like flowers. The makeup on her face simply brought her a bit of color, not too thick, but just the right amount of embellishment for her.
Her black hair was tied up, and a long tassel hung down from one of the steps. Pei Ziyan lent this step to Chao Huan, but she didn't expect that she would be more suitable than me.
It was the first time Chao Huan wore such clothes. She was a little embarrassed. She pushed up her sleeves. She lowered her face and asked shyly, "Isn't it inappropriate?"
"It's super suitable. Sister Shu looks beautiful in anything she wears!" Lin Youyu praised vigorously.
Even Pei Ziyan nodded, "Well, it suits you very well."
Although it was a bit inappropriate, Chao Huan still looked pretty. However, when she saw the face in the bronze mirror that did not belong to her, she still subconsciously lowered her head.
As night approached, seventeen girls in red clothes stood in the square. The others had been ordered by the village chief to go back to their rooms and were not allowed to come out no matter what happened.
The few girls who came voluntarily looked at the sun that was gradually setting and then disappearing, and couldn't help but mention in their hearts that they were also ordinary people after all, and they would still be afraid when they were about to face something unpredictable.
But when they thought that this was to save more people, they strengthened their belief. They held each other's hands under their robes and gained warmth from the hands of those around them.
Finally, when the last ray of light disappeared from the sky, a ray of rays of light broke out from the top of the mountain. The rays of light came from a distance, winding in the air like a road.
Chao Huan heard the crisp sound of horse hooves coming from the road in mid-air.
All the people who noticed the sound involuntarily raised their heads. Their eyes changed from fear to surprise. Carriages came from the road in mid-air. Those carriages landed in front of them. Each of them had a corresponding one.
carriage.
Is this also the way to end the day? Chao Huan thought to himself, and looked at each other with Pei Ziyan, and each got into a carriage.
The seven imprisoned women also moved like puppets. They each stepped onto a carriage. After everyone got in, the carriage started again and returned to the mountain along the road in the sky.
Chao Huan opened the car curtain and took a look outside. The village slowly became smaller. They had already risen into the air and were heading towards the top of the mountain.
"It's coming." She whispered.
The carriage passed through a film-like barrier, and no one else noticed it, but the cultivators knew that it was a sign of passing through the barrier.
