Chapter 174 The white cat appears!

Fallen leaves return to their roots and rest in peace in the earth.

This is a traditional thought that is deeply rooted in the blood of all Daxia people.

The statue is now located some distance from the actual border line, and has apparently been 'retired'.

There are generally two situations in which an icon will be "retired".

Either there is a new statue in the place where it was originally guarded, or Daxia's territory has expanded outward.

But generally speaking, it's the former.

The reason why they did not bury him but placed him in such a desolate place was mainly to let these martial saints see that the mountains and rivers of their homeland that they had tried their best to protect were still magnificent.

Even though the Martial Saints could no longer see it.

Every warrior on the border would leave a suicide note long in advance, with only one sentence on it: "Everyone must die. I die for Daxia. Wherever I die, that is my Daxia territory. If you miss me, please pour a glass of wine in front of my statue and tell me that the mountains and rivers are safe."

An incense burner and some fruits are placed before the statue.

There was incense ash scattered next to the incense burner, and the fruits looked fresh, as if someone had come to offer sacrifices not long ago.

Ji Ruo took out three incense sticks from the omen mirror - before going to college, Ji Ruo bought a lot of things and put them in the omen mirror, no matter whether they would be used or not, as long as the omen mirror could hold them.

"Please rest assured, Senior Martial Saint, the mountains and rivers of Daxia are still safe."

At this time, a breeze blew, and the grass around the statue was blown by the wind, making a rustling sound.

The martial arts will of the holy statue that had long been crystallized seemed to have not yet disappeared. Ji Ruo, who had mastered the [Common Language], seemed to hear someone screaming in his ear through the sound of grass leaves rubbing against each other:

"Live with a smile behind me!"

Ji Ruo was stunned, thought for a moment, and then took out a quilt from the Vientiane Mirror, draped it over the statue, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Senior Martial Saint, we are very happy."

[Quilt Sealing Technique] is not an offensive sealing method. The method to break the seal is very simple, just tear off the quilt.

During the sealing period, the sealed person will continue to have a feeling of "pleasure".

It's probably the pleasure of staying in bed on a winter morning.

This martial saint must have not slept in bed for a long time.

Luo Xi curiously watched Ji Ruo respectfully burn incense to the holy image and asked, "Master, what are you doing?"

"I am paying homage to the Martial Saint." Ji Ruo took out the incense, candles and paper money and said, "These things are used to pay homage to the deceased. They are a part of our human culture."

"To pay tribute to the deceased..." Luo Xi tilted her head and thought for a moment: "What about the deceased cat?"

Ji Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then thought of Luo Xi's sister.

The young man smiled slightly, rubbed Luo Xi's head, and said, "Of course, do you want to worship your sister?"

"Is that okay?"

Luo Xi asked expectantly, "After the worship, can we have the feast?"

Ji Ruo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, it turned out that this little guy had this in mind!

"Of course you can, but you have to be serious when you worship!"

"good!"

Chen Mo stretched out a hand from Ji Ruo's head eagerly, like a student raising his hand in class, and said, "Me, me, me! I want to worship together too!"

"Okay, let's go together."

Ji Ruo bowed to the statue of the Martial Saint once again, and then waited quietly for the three incense sticks to burn out before leaving with Luo Xi and Chen Mo.

Rosie is a demon, and her sister must be a demon as well. It is not appropriate to worship them in front of the statue of the Martial Saint.

After a moment.

Ji Ruo used his [absolute sense of direction] to find a place that was more suitable for a picnic (crossed out)... a place suitable for worshiping, then he took out candles, paper money and tablecloths, and began to teach Luo Xi and Chen Mo how to worship.

The young man first made a small mound of earth, then lit the incense with his iron sand palm, and distributed them to the two people beside him, each holding three sticks with a serious expression.

"Rosie, when you worship the dead, you can say something you want to the dead... Well, in this case, most of the words are good wishes for the future life... Remember to be serious, otherwise the dead won't hear you."

"I understand." Luo Xi squatted on the ground with a serious face, holding three incense sticks in her upper limbs, and said softly with great piety: "Meow~ (Sister, please bless me to eat delicious food every day, and please don't come out to scare me often...)"

The white cat in the form of a heroic spirit roared crazily on the side.

Looking at Rosie's serious and childish look, Ji Ruo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

On the other hand, Chen Mo's words left Ji Ruo speechless.

"Rosie's sister, are you dead? What a pity, I haven't met you yet. My name is Chen Mo, what's your name? Hello, hello? Can you speak?"

Ji Ruo smiled and shook her head, and said softly: "Luo Xi's sister, um, hello, my name is Ji Ruo, and I am Luo Xi's current owner. Don't worry, Luo Xi will be taken care of by me in the future, and I will not let her suffer any grievances, please rest assured..."

The three people being worshipped are: a century-old inner demon who has surpassed the four realms of martial arts; a Qi-Pulse Realm warrior whose heart is becoming more and more pure under the guidance of the system teacher; and a cute 'big hungry demon'...

Regardless of other things, these three people's beliefs are definitely stronger than ordinary people. Rosie may not have it, but this little guy's belief is very pure.

As the worship continued, no one, including the white cat in the state of a heroic spirit, noticed that a mysterious and strange power was slowly gathering...

The worship is over.

"Oh! It's time to eat!"

Luo Qian quickly stuck the three incense sticks in her hand into the ground, then squatted on the ground and looked at Ji Ruo with anticipation.

Although she can take food out of the mirror by herself, how can eating by herself be as joyful as being fed?

"Eat your feast!"

Chen Mo also had a look of anticipation. Although he didn't need to eat anything, he still used the black mist to condense the shapes of a pair of chopsticks and a spoon in his hands.

Ji Ruo smiled and was about to take out the food——

"Eat, eat, eat! You only know how to eat! Just now, the statue of the Martial Saint was offering fruits, you stinky Rosie, you worship me just to have a feast! I can't eat it myself! And, when did I ever scare you?"

Luo Xi thought that this sentence was said by Ji Ruo. Although she didn't understand anything, she still covered her head and said hurriedly: "Master, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Ji Ruo and Chen Mo stared blankly at the lone white cat shadow that appeared behind Luo Xi at some point.

"Luo Xi...is this person your sister?" Ji Ruo pointed at the phantom of the white cat and asked in a trembling voice.

Chen Mo stretched out his hand to the white cat phantom and said, "Hello, Luo Xi's sister, my name is Chen Mo!"

Rosie looked back in confusion.

"???"

"Sister, why did you come out?!"

"Come out..." The white cat phantom seemed a little confused: "Ah!!! You saw me!"

She screamed and suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons.

The shadow of the white cat suddenly appeared and disappeared. In broad daylight, Ji Ruo felt a chill on the back of his neck.

The fearless boy just now trembled and said, "Luo Xi, your sister just appeared in spirit?!"

“Huh~”

Suddenly, Ji Ruo felt someone blowing gently on the back of his neck.

“Ahhhh!!!”

Ji Ruo was so frightened that he jumped up.

A small figure fell to the ground, holding his stomach and rolling around laughing.

"Hahaha! You are so timid, old man!"

Ji Ruo: “???”
