Chapter 257 The Code is Correct (Update)

There was a roar of thunder, and the rain that had accumulated for many days began to pour down.

On a rainy night like this, the sound of people's footsteps mixed with the sound of rain, but the two people in the ruined temple could hear them particularly clearly.

"Move somewhere else. It's leaking here." Lin Du started to move the straw.

Yuan Ye sighed, "Just look at this broken tile, it leaks everywhere, even the altar leaks."

The footsteps became louder and louder, and then stopped at the entrance of the ruined temple. Lin Du seemed to sense something.

"Who is it?"

The voice outside the door was even more surprised than Lin Du's, "Junior Master?"

Then he quickly took a step back, "No, this is an illusion, and Junior Master Uncle is not real either."

Lin Du: ...

Smart, but not much.

She stood up and asked, "Who did you meet and who did you find wrong?"

Yuan Ye was more alert than Lin Du. "Who are you? What's your master's name? What's your favorite food? Are there still bamboos in the bamboo forest behind our sect?"

The two people inside and outside the temple stared at each other for a while.

"Mo Lin, Ju Yuan, I eat everything. I am not picky. The bamboo forest is gone, and I gave it to my junior sister to build a roof."

Yuan Ye stepped forward, "The code is correct."

Mo Lin entered the ruined temple. "I met Tian Wu. No, it was a demon pretending to be Tian Wu. I was knocked unconscious and came out to look for clues. I found this place. I said that I felt something was wrong with my junior sister the first time I saw her..."

He chattered on and on and explained the whole cause and effect, his identity, his experiences, including the fact that he seemed to like the fake Xia Tianwu. Then he met Lin Du's slightly raised mouth and Yuan Ye's strange eyes.

"No...what's that look in your eyes?" Mo Lin was about to take out the sword again.

Yuan Ye coughed heavily, turned his head to look at Lin Du, and found that Lin Du could not see now, so he had to hold it in and think about his words.

Lin Du laughed recklessly, "Master Nephew, do you know that this illusion has magnified the things that the eight of us want most in our hearts, our most desired identities, thoughts, etc., and turned them into the world we want most."

"Although the mixed fantasies of eight people make the world look weird, one thing will not change, that is, if there is no inner thought, it will not be projected. Even if there is only a little hint in your heart, you have thought about it, so it will appear."

For example, there will be moments when Yuan Ye doesn't want to care about anything, so in the secret realm he becomes a person who doesn't care about anything and is content with what he has. This is an extreme of freedom. The secret realm has some deviations in the evolution of human Taoism, but no matter what, there is a starting point before there is a path.

"So it's not the illusion you think it is," Lin Du's voice was filled with a playful smile, "it is indeed what your heart desires."

Mo Lin stood there, his body soaked by the rain. He looked like a stray dog ​​on a rainy day. When he heard these words, he froze there, as if he couldn't react.

"ah?"

He subconsciously wanted to touch the sword, but because he was too used to his sword stick, he touched the blade instead, leaving a shallow blood mark on his fingertips.

Mo Lin withdrew his hand and became even more dazed.

In fact, the junior master was very patient with them. Even though they often didn't understand what he said, Lin Du could always think of a better way to explain it so that they could understand.

But for the first time, he didn't want to listen to the junior master's detailed explanation.

After a long while, he finally reacted, "If you are all real, then Junior Sister is also in the illusion? Then where is Junior Sister? Is she in danger too?"

"At least for now, these fake ones won't hurt anyone." Lindu paused, "But I'm not sure if they will in the future."

For example... God descends.

Lin Du vaguely guessed how bad things would become. It was true that severe punishments were needed to deal with the chaos, but the city was still peaceful. This was not a chaotic world.

The people in this city are actually very good. Those who commit petty thefts are punished to the point of excruciating pain. Are they believing in God or are they afraid of powerful forces?

The real gods don't think about how to protect the world and eliminate evil spirits, but actually think about oppressing the world. If there are no evil thoughts, there will be no evil spirits. What's the logic behind this?

Yuan Ye was also thinking, "I haven't seen Yan Qing yet, and I don't know how he is doing."

"And Yue Han, the young master's brain is so stupid that he probably won't even think it's fake. If he can't get out, he still has three hundred spirit crystals..."

Lin Du glanced at Mo Lin and said, "It's hard to say."

She also vaguely discovered some clues. It seemed that the first fake person that the real person met in the illusion was the person that he subconsciously wanted to see after entering the secret realm.

Yuan Ye was worried that the young master would run away without paying the bill, and he was worried that Jin Xuan was too naive and easy to be deceived, not to mention Mo Lin.

Who knew that by morning, Mo Lin would be punished by God.

The bone-eating pain penetrated into Mo Lin's body, but Mo Lin didn't say a word. It was only when Lin Du noticed that the child was standing still and not moving that he discovered something was wrong.

"I guess someone discovered that I hurt someone last night." Mo Lin spoke with difficulty. The words echoing in his mind gave him a splitting headache.

Even so, he was not like the other residents in the city who had to repeat the oracle over and over again in order to calm down because of the pain that was breaking their bones and splitting their souls.

Lin Du frowned, tried his spiritual power, and found that the shackles of his spiritual power had loosened a little, and it penetrated into Mo Lin's veins neatly and cleanly.

Mo Lin was startled, but the next moment, he found that the divine punishment had faded away.

He looked at Lin Du in amazement, "Uncle Junior Master, you really are a miracle worker."

It's just... it makes people shiver and their skin turns blue.

Lin Du stood up, also somewhat surprised, and had a bad guess in his mind.

At daybreak, the three men left the ruined temple.

Who knew that as soon as he walked out of the door, he ran into Yue Han who was in a panic at the entrance of the alley.

Yue Han covered his painful face, looked up and saw Lin Du and the other two, his eyes lit up, "Zhen Liu!!!"

Lin Du: ...

This is really silly, yes.

She didn't expect Yue Han to realize it so quickly.

The young master in front of them looked extremely pitiful, his clothes were disheveled, there was some unknown grass and lime hanging on his hair, and his whole face was gray. When he saw them, he cried with joy as if he had seen his relatives.

"How scary! Huang Xuan is fake! I was so scared that I waited until midnight before sneaking out through a dog hole!"

The three people from the Supreme Sect: ...What a special method.

Yue Han's eyes welled up with tears. "At first I thought that this secret realm just wanted me to be the city lord, so I just followed them obediently. I did whatever they told me to do. I was used to being praised for my wisdom and bravery, and my good governance. But after dinner last night, Huang Xuan actually said that I had great musicality, and I was so scared!"

"What if the test of this secret realm is to make me play a normal melody? I will say I am not feeling well and take a rest first, and then escape in the middle of the night!"

Yue Han wiped away tears, rubbing the dust off his face like an ink painting, "It's really scary, what should I do, my music class is the worst in the tribe."

Lin Du sighed. He had wanted to tease the young master, but now he couldn't do that.

Who would have thought that Yue Han would feel that Huang Xuan was fake in this way.

No matter how short the period, the repeated divine punishments in the city made the people in the city helpless and terrified. However, the evil spirits outside the city became more rampant. Traces of the evil spirits' grasping began to appear at the city gates, and the people in the city were in a panic and disputes continued.

As soon as Yan Qing appeared in the court, a man rushed up to him.

"My Lord, please help me!"
