"Oh my god! It's so big?" I couldn't help but exclaim.
"Those who obey me will prosper, and those who defy me will perish. Since you don't want to follow me, then disappear forever." I saw that the huge monster as big as a mountain actually began to speak, and the tone was obviously the voice of the Longhu hermit speaking in my dream.
After it finished speaking, it smashed down with its huge arm, and the ground suddenly rumbled and shook continuously, and the guardrail in the front yard was instantly smashed. When it raised its arm, I could see clearly through the moonlight that at that time, soil, rotten wood, broken sand, weeds, gravel and other things were somehow integrated together in its hand, and I could smell the scent of soil, in addition to that, there was also the familiar smell of elixir and the smell in the incense burner.
Only then did I realize that the gray powder could not only manipulate the subconscious of living things, but also allow dead things to be used and controlled by it. It is said that all things have spirits, and if they have spirits, they have consciousness. I am afraid that the gray powder is using this to manipulate their consciousness, causing all the dead things to gather together and become this huge monster to attack us.
Something this big cannot be made in an instant. It must have taken a lot of effort and time to gather it together. It turns out that the operator did not escape in the past two or three days, but found another way to deal with us. He found a place to carry out such a project and created a giant mountain creature!
It walked in slowly, but every step was earth-shaking. Behind our post station was the Diaolou Mountain, and rocks were falling from it, constantly crashing down onto our house. The entire wooden house had already collapsed, and with these falling rocks, the post station was beyond saving.
"Stop!" I yelled.
The giant mountain creature raised his fist, then lowered it slightly, and said in a heavy voice, "Do you regret it? I'll give you another choice: obey me, or go against me."
"Senior, I don't know where you are from or where you came from, but can you please not kill me? What does it matter if it's good or bad? I have never hurt you. Besides, you were able to escape and not be suppressed by the Spirit Pond Toad, thanks to us. So, we have helped you, but you don't remember the favor and have repeatedly tried to kill us. Why? Aren't you from the Heavenly Palace? How can you be so cruel and merciless? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Heaven?" I asked cautiously.
On the other side, I was also taking advantage of the little moonlight to judge the remaining ways of survival, and the words I spoke were also a way to delay some time, which was a chance of survival.
"Why should I care about these? Those who obey me can stay, and those who disobey me will be killed today. There is no third choice. If you still don't obey, don't blame me." The other party said.
The tunnel collapsed and the road to the backyard was blocked. The only escape areas were the left and right sides. The left side was the yard of Flax, which led to Diaolou Mountain, but Diaolou Mountain had just experienced a serious landslide and it might be difficult to hide. Therefore, the only way out was to the right. There was an unfamiliar road at the other end. A mountain-like giant was blocking the north direction ahead. It would be harder to get through than climbing to the sky. Therefore, the only way to survive now was on the right.
After finding a way to survive, I thought that although the opponent was huge in size, his movements were slow after all, so there was still a way to escape. Going right would be the way to survive.
I quietly put Yunwen on the horse and prepared to ride away, but at this time the Song sisters rushed out from the backyard, and Song Yingchun shouted, "Are you the immortal who appeared in the dream?"
Bai Lu quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Girl, don't mess around. Let's go to Brother Zhou Bo's place."
"It's me." The huge creature replied with a heavy sound.
Song Yingchun shook off Song Bailu's hand and said with a smile, "It's really you. I just smelled that scent on you. Did you want to come to find me and accidentally break these things? It's okay, I don't blame you. If the house is gone, I can rebuild it, but if my friends are gone, I have to rely on you. You promised me that you would help my merman friend come back to life. You didn't forget it, or you came here just for this promise."
It seems that Song Yingchun either didn’t hear the conversation between me and this guy just now, or pretended not to hear it. But it’s good that she is buying time so that I can find a way to run to the right so that we can all survive.
"Of course I won't forget, but you have to tell me, are you going to obey me?" the thunderous voice asked.
"Obedience? How do you mean obedience? Do you need incense and offerings or do you need me to build a temple for you, enshrine your statue, and kowtow to you every day? I can do all these, as long as you can help me wake up the ugly monster." Yingchun said.
"Song Yingchun, what he means by obedience is that he wants to turn you into the same ghosts as those on the Sea Monster, and make your soul forever under his jurisdiction and control. Don't agree to it blindly." I said.
At this moment, I heard a scream, and the strong wind almost made me fall down. When I looked in front of me again, I saw a huge mud finger, forming a snapping shape. Before I could react, there was a snapping sound, and I flew five or six meters high, and fell heavily on the rubble. My whole body was pierced by wood chips, and I felt like my heart was suffocating for a few seconds before it recovered. My bones seemed to be falling apart.
My throat felt sweet and the fishy smell made me cry and cough.
The horse was startled and rushed past with Yunwen on its back. It leaped over the two-meter-high fence on the right and galloped away, leaving the beast far behind and whistling. Even the giant could not catch it and let it slip away.
Well, Yunwen was transported away first. It could be considered a blessing in disguise for Yunwen as she was the first to leave the danger zone.
I thought Yingchun would be frightened by my words, but she turned around and looked at me with contempt, saying, "I told you not to think and talk nonsense. Look, you have angered the immortal. What do you want? Immortals have their own reasons. Do you have the right to speak? Since there is a great immortal protecting us, what can we do even if we obey him? You, you always know how to argue, and come up with a bunch of reasons. I, Song Yingchun, am a real person. Since there is an immortal protecting us, I will obey him. Why should I disobey him?"
My eyes widened. She still believed that guy and didn't want to believe me.
"So, you are willing to serve me, live in accordance with me, and never disobey me?" asked the giant.
Yingchun turned around again, knelt down and kowtowed to the giant, saying, "My god, I definitely trust you. We have been in contact for a month. How can I trust you and do what you want me to do?"
"Sacrifice your soul to me." the other party said.
Yingchun was stunned, Bailu hurriedly stopped her and said, "No, Yingchun, your soul must be protected, you can't..."
Before she could finish, the huge mud hand reached out to Bai Lu again, ready to send her flying. Yingchun hurriedly said, "No, I'll give it to you, I'll give it all to you, I obey you, please don't hurt my sister, you are a god, I admire you, I believe in you, obeying you is nothing, what should I do to be a sacrifice?"
"Come closer to me."
So Yingchun pushed Bailu's hand away and went over there. Bailu rushed forward to hold her sister, but was stopped by the huge hand. From then on, they were getting farther and farther apart. My body was about to fall apart, and I had no strength to save her. I could only watch.
Yingchun walked all the way to the front of the giant creature, but because my vision was too far away, I couldn't see clearly. I could only see countless gray powders lingering around her, and then poured into her mouth. Her whole body floated up. I remember that before I died, my spirit was almost corroded and destroyed by the gray powder. Now it seems that Yingchun's soul should have completely completed this destruction process.
I smiled bitterly.
Bai Lu cried out.
The whole process lasted for several minutes. When Yingchun came down from the air, she was very different. She coughed for a long time, then knelt on the ground. It was not known whether it was her own will or she was under control. She shouted, "I will listen to the orders of the Lord."
"Those who obey me, I keep; those who disobey me, I kill."
The heavy voice echoed in the mountains, and at this moment, with a whoosh, the wandering dagger in the ruins flew out and was caught by Yingchun. Holding the dagger, she walked towards Bailu and me step by step, like a ghost.
