Chapter 58: The Temple Keeper A Hundred Years Ago

And with the appearance of this second voice, I felt that I could no longer bend my waist.

I had no choice but to look at Liu Yunsheng.

"I can't bow anymore."

Liu Yunsheng frowned slightly, as if he noticed something was wrong with me, and reached out to help me, but as soon as his hand touched me, he took it back.

I saw that there seemed to be a bit of weirdness in his eyes.

“If you can’t do it, then don’t do it!”

He said something coldly, and then walked directly to the side.

Seeing what he said, I no longer forced myself to pray. After I gave up the idea of ​​praying, I felt that the resistance disappeared and the familiar voice did not appear again.

At the same time, that familiar figure flashed through my mind again.

After sighing slightly, I didn't think much about it anymore. Instead, I focused my eyes on the remains in the coffin, and then reached out and took out a piece of bone from the fingers of the skeleton.

At this point, my purpose of coming here can be considered accomplished.

However, when I was about to put the bone away, the bone suddenly seemed to come to life and actually cut open the palm of my hand.

My first reaction was to shake it away, but its speed was even faster than mine. In just an instant, it penetrated from the palm of my hand into my flesh and blood, and then I felt it on my thumb.

There was a sharp pain, as if something was separating my bones from my hand.

"How is this going?"

I quickly looked at Liu Yunsheng.

The severe pain already made me break out in cold sweat.

I could clearly see that the bone on my thumb was emerging from my flesh bit by bit, and that bone was taking its place.

That bone was also the thumb bone of the Earth Immortal's remains.

But Liu Yunsheng didn't pay attention to me, he just looked at me, his eyes slightly squinted under the mask, as if he was watching something novel.

After a while, he finally said: "Boy."

"This is a great blessing for you."

"The patience will pass."

"Fuck God..." I couldn't help but curse. Seeing that the bones of my right thumb were completely peeled off, I felt my eyes blacken and I fainted.

I don't know how long I was unconscious.

When I woke up, I found that I was leaning next to the coffin. I quickly looked at my right hand, but the sight of my right hand intact made me feel a little confused.

Could it be that this is another dream?

I couldn't help but look at Liu Yunsheng, who was playing with something weird. It looked like a bone, but it was transparent.

"woke up?"

Seeing me looking at him, Liu Yunsheng threw the transparent bone to me.

"Put it away."

"What is this?" I picked up the bones.

"Your finger bones." Liu Yunsheng looked at me with a half-smile.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I hurriedly groped around on my body, and the bone I took out from the Earth Immortal's remains had indeed disappeared.

Not a dream?

Thinking of this, I raised my right hand again and pinched the bone of my thumb. It seemed that there was no difference and there was no wound.

This made me even more confused.

As if he thought my behavior was a bit funny, Liu Yunsheng said: "I have been curious about why the old smoker released you from Niang'er Village."

"After all, as a village guard, you were born to be deprived of your destiny, with five shortcomings and three shortcomings."

"But there is nothing missing in you. You look like a completely healthy person."

"I don't understand until now."

"The old smoker wants you to use the body of the Earth Immortal to make up for the shortcomings in your hit."

"That's just replenishing one's life."

I remained silent and didn't speak.

Because what Liu Yunsheng said was not wrong.

Liu Yunsheng continued: "And you were not actually born lucky enough to deceive the secret of heaven and avoid the city god from taking away your destiny. Instead, you were temporarily compensated for the lack of destiny from the moment you were born, and you used a trick to confuse the fake with the real one."

"Amazing!"

"Originally, I thought that I was tricked by that old smoker when I entered this game."

"Now it seems……"

Liu Yunsheng walked up to me and patted my shoulder, but didn't say any more.

I wanted to ask again, but Liu Yunsheng closed the lid of the coffin and seemed to have no intention of continuing to talk to me.

I was full of doubts, but I also knew that Liu Yunsheng and the old smoker had the same moral character. If they didn't want to finish talking, they wouldn't tell me anymore no matter how much I asked.

The only thing I can be sure of is that this transparent finger bone may be mine.

If the meaning of Liu Yunsheng's words is taken literally, it should be that things have been changed from my body since I was born, and this transparent finger bone is one of them.

In other words, I may have been disabled since birth.

As I was thinking, Liu Yunsheng's voice interrupted my thoughts.

"It's time to do what you promised the temple guard."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but frown.

I did promise the old woman to take the coffin to Ghost Mountain and hand it over to him.

But later, when I discovered that I had been in the City God's Temple all the time, and that the experience of leaving the City God's Temple for the first time might have been a lie, I no longer took this matter to my heart.

It was only after I told Liu Yunsheng later that I realized that some of the experiences that might have been fake might be true.

And this real person may be that old woman.

But I still have some hesitation.

I looked at Liu Yunsheng and asked, "If that old woman is real, then what does my previous experience mean?"

I have always wanted to ask this before, but Liu Yunsheng has not given me a chance to ask since we came down the mountain. In addition, Liu Yunsheng's reaction after learning about the old woman, I have never dared to mention it again.

Liu Yunsheng thought for a moment and said, "You can think of it as a dream."

Enlightenment?

I have some doubts.

Liu Yunsheng had no intention of explaining, but said: "In short, it will do no harm to you if you hand over this coffin to her."

"You can even say that she is saving you!"

I subconsciously asked: "What do you mean?"

Liu Yunsheng glanced at me: "Why do you think you can stay here peacefully with me now?"

I fell silent and suddenly understood.

If you go by what Liu Yunsheng said before, I don’t know how many people are staring at the coffin, but Liu Yunsheng and I have been here, and now I have got what I want, but no third person has come. This is indeed unreasonable.

.

But didn’t Liu Yunsheng say that she died a hundred years ago?

So what I saw was a human or a ghost?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but ask again: "Then is she dead or not?"

"died."

Liu Yunsheng answered without any hesitation.

The corner of my mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.

Is this considered a ghost attack?

I suddenly became a little confused.

Although there were a lot of weird things happening before and a lot of people died, I can definitely be sure that those are the people I saw.

This seems to be the first time I've encountered a ghost.
