Chapter 111 Extra 1
Pei City is more desolate than imagined.
In the silent night, Yu Duo sensed the sound of fireworks exploding in the village from a distance. When he looked up, he saw the beautiful shadow left in the night sky.
The huge light purple and pink fireworks made a deafening sound, one after another rose into the sky, and then fell like rain. People were attracted by the sudden dazzling light, and walked out to watch the excitement. Those coquettish filaments were broken into countless fragments, and their arc tails seemed to fall on the treetops, lighting up every face.
At this moment, Yu Duo forgot about the cold night. He walked out of the door without putting on his coat and looked up. Someone came out from behind and wrapped a heavy cotton coat around him.
Ren Zhinan looked at the light in Yu Duo's eyes and laughed at him: "Isn't it too boring to follow me? Even watching the fireworks is like seeing it for the first time."
In the past few months, Ren Zhinan accompanied him to the ghost land two or three times. After practicing the formations taught by Zhang Sheng, Yu Duo cried with joy when he used the formations to seal the domain lord with his own hands, feeling that he finally looked like a ghost exorcist.
He subconsciously hugged Ren Zhinan: "Brother Ren, how can I be bored when I'm with you? I like you. I have said..."
The birds and beasts in the forest were frightened by the sudden scene, and they flew around. Go away, leaving only the trembling shadows of the trees.
Ren Zhinan rubbed his nose and tilted his head and said: "...I brought you to the old site of my ancestors on a whim. You should blame me." The pair of glasses he was accustomed to wearing accidentally fell off in the ghost realm, and Yu Duo My feet are crooked, and now I can see clearly only because of the contact lenses this guy bought.
"Brother Ren..." Yu Duo looked at Ren Zhinan for a few seconds, smiled, and whispered in his ear: "You look so beautiful like this now. Can I kiss you? Can you kiss me?"
A face came close to her . In front of him, Ren Zhinan was a little panicked and pushed it with his hand: "This is outdoors."
Yu Duo frowned and complained: "There's no one there, just you and me. You should also learn from Master Xun and face each other in the ghost cave. Thirteen hugs and gnaws, I really like you like this... I can't help it, I want to..."
In fact, he had long wanted to solemnly confess to Ren Zhinan. After this trip to Peicheng, he also figured out the relationship between him and Ren Zhinan. The line of lovesickness between them turns out to have been related to each other since their previous lives.
The first ghostland they visited together was Ren Zhinan's ancestral grave. The incense used for worship had just burned halfway, and before he kowtowed, the iron bucket containing the paper money suddenly started to have paper scraps jumping up and down, as if it was being sensed. The arrival of two people.
Yu Duo was timid, his hand was close to the iron bucket, and he was frightened out of his mind by the rising will-o'-the-wisp. When he pulled his finger back, it was cut by the sharp edge of the iron bucket, and a drop of blood fell into the flickering light of the fire.
As a result, a few seconds later, they found themselves under the red building with corpses everywhere.
Yu Duo: "...Brother Ren, I'm going to faint."
Ren Zhinan was very calm. He knew that when he entered the ghost domain, everything he saw was related to the domain lord, and obviously what they saw now was not anything from Peicheng. A place that could only belong to one of his ancestors.
Ren Zhinan: "Don't be dizzy now. Looking at their clothes, they should be around the Qing Dynasty."
Yu Duo opened his eyes from between his fingers and whispered: "Qing Dynasty?... This, this seems to be Yin Yang Street, why? It's so familiar!"
Upon hearing this, Ren Zhinan felt that his guess was correct. Since Yu Duo was injured and escaped from Yin Yang Street and hid in Yong for a hundred years, then according to his age at that time, he must be a ghost exorcist at the same time as his ancestors. There must be a relationship between them to trigger the ghost realm.
He took Yu Duo's hand and calmed the man's emotions: "Don't be afraid. Zhang Sheng has not taught you the magic of exorcising ghosts. He is one of the best at exorcising ghosts. Since he values you, he must think you have the ability to do it."
Yu Duo Pouty: "I didn't."
Ren Zhinan: "Oh, then just wait for death."
"Ah? Ah... no, Brother Ren! You can't expect me to exorcise ghosts. I have mediocre qualifications and can't be beaten by anyone. How can you Tell me to exorcise ghosts!" Yu Duo was almost scared to death. All he could see in his peripheral vision were corpses that had been burned to a blackened state. Their postures were twisted, and the floorboards made a squeaking sound, and his heart was beating wildly.
I don’t know since when, Zhang Sheng would practice exorcism spells for him from time to time. Of course, he didn’t say that it was the intention of the believers. It was probably because Ren Zhinan and Ni Shisan both felt that Yu Duo and Zhang Sheng were becoming more and more similar. Zhang Sheng just started teaching. But he couldn't figure it out. It was different. He couldn't compare to Mr. Xun's understanding.
Ren Zhinan was so cute that Yu Duo was timid and fearful but habitually memorized spells. Every time, he deliberately stood by and watched. He only heard Yu Duo's broken words and strange screams. It seemed that he was not too pushy. , this person will stay in "Yong" forever.
He pointed to the clothes of the fallen people: "The clothes these people wear seem to belong to different sects, do you recognize them?"
Yu Duo was not very old at that time, but his memory was surprisingly good. Not only did he recognize the clothes of the six famous people, he could also identify whether there were high-level ghost exorcists among them.
He tried to stay calm and knelt down to check: "Brother Ren, I should recognize this person. He is a high-level ghost exorcist of the Xuan family, but I don't know how he was burned to death by fire. Even his soul was gone. The fire didn't help." Normally. If it were Tu Linghuo, we should be on the day when Ni Shisan lost control..."
Ren Zhinan listened to his analysis carefully and asked, "Then did Ren Qie, the ancestor of my Ren family, appear in Yin Yang Street?"
Yu Duo nodded: "Yes. Sister Ren is responsible for contacting the six famous people, and she is used to using spiritual threads to convey messages. She was also the one who notified my father and mother, including Master Xun, at that time. But the battle situation was too fierce at that time, and there were so many ghosts that it was impossible to tell who was who. Who is it...I, I was attacked by an evil spirit, and I fainted in the middle of the attack."
He probably didn't dare to remember, because after he fainted, he was already a different person when he woke up. It is known from descendants that both his parents died in the ghost cave on Yin Yang Street. Yu's escape skills can help other ghost exorcists create secret passages to escape, but there are limits. His parents continued to resist until their death, and they still managed to survive. Concerned about the unsaved.
"I'm not worthy...I'm not worthy of being a ghost exorcist."
The demon in Yu Duo's heart was always there. He just covered it up with a nonchalant attitude, but how could he feel at ease in his heart.
"Sister Ren is also dead. I have seen her before. At that time, Master Xun was blinded by the killing array and did not care about the ghost exorcist behind him. It was Sister Ren who contacted them one by one to avoid the new round of attacks. Ghost tide."
There was one more thing he wanted to mention.
But the past was flooding back, and the discomfort in his heart was coming out, and it was almost unbearable.
"When I was very young... I remember my father brought Sister Ren into the house. She and I didn't say a few words, but my father said that when he grows up, he will marry Sister Ren as his wife."
Ren Zhinan leaned over and asked: " "Ren Qie?"
This feeling is really strange. Seeing that Yu Duo is younger than me, and turned out to be the betrothed husband of the ancestor of the Ren family, I don't know what people thought at that time, and the husband can't use his brain. Yu Duo's father might be crazy to ask a boy seven or eight years younger than himself to be his future husband.
Yu Duo said awkwardly: "Because, because the Ren family plays a special role, the six famous families all rely on the Ren family to unite, and my Yu family's escape skills are an important part of changing the terrain and gathering manpower, so my father I have saved the Ren family many times. Maybe it's because of this, to repay the favor."
Ren Zhinan rolled his eyes deeply: "Oh, I just want to repay the favor, product."
He especially wanted to curse, if Ren Qie was still there, he would have to. Swear in person.
...
As a result, until they safely left the ghost realm, Renqie did not appear.
It's just that Yu Duo saved many people with more superb escape skills in the domain lord's fantasy. That may be the ancestor's biggest regret. He had the ability to call on the six famous masters to fight together, but failed to protect them from survival. hope.
"Brother Ren."
Following Yu Duo's call, Ren Zhinan raised his head and discovered that the fireworks in the night sky were arranged into a meaningful text - Cuiyu Zhangjigang.
"...?" Ren Zhinan said, "This... this is what the hell is going on."
"There won't be anyone with the same name by chance! Damn it, Brother Ren! Did you see it? Thirteen set off these fireworks..."
Ren Zhinan was about to be shaken to pieces by Yu Duo.
He propped up his chin, meditated for a while and then suddenly opened his eyes: "I think it's true, Xiaoduo, do you still remember that Ni Shisan said that Wuran is a magic weapon that is in conflict with him, so it should be in Ma Li's hands . Thirteen has swallowed up all the evil spirits in China, even surpassing the power of the evil god, but don’t forget that he is also the container that the evil god needs most..."
Yu Duo was delighted: "You mean, Ma Li is in the end. "Help Thirteen?"
"Yes -" There is no more suitable explanation than this, Ren Zhinan's eyes lit up, "I think it was him who finally told Ma Li about saving Zhang Sheng with the Samsara Formation, that apprentice He also understood that no matter what he did, he could not reverse the bond between the two, so he let go. "
The fear of people created evil gods. Those fears gathered in Ni Shisan's body and forged a new generation of evil gods, and Wu Ran became his friend. After purifying the evil spirit, all that remains is the original compass.
It was this compass that Zhang Sheng shattered, causing Ni Shisan's consciousness to scatter everywhere, and one day it would be possible to piece it together completely.
The curse on Ma Li was also lifted with the disappearance of the old evil god.
It's just that some curses have been with the Zhang family for hundreds of years and are not so easy to solve. After all, Xun Baishan once again destroyed his accompanying magic weapon, and the sins he carried were reflected on the living descendants. Naturally, Momo is still in the The state of the living dead.
Only then did Ren Zhinan and Yu Duo discover that Zhang Sheng had also come to Pei City for Momo. There was the most elusive witchcraft here, containing the imprints left by their ancestors.
"Is this considered a proposal?" Yu Duo grinned, "I'll go, Thirteen is quite romantic. As soon as he came back to life, he wanted to show off his love and show it to the whole village!"
Ren Zhinan's heart felt hot and he pulled her over abnormally. The person next to you tapped her lips.
"Ren, Brother Ren..."
"Let's be together, Xiaoduo. I like you too."
*
Standing behind Yu Duo in Renqie's ghost realm, he suddenly saw those things that were unknown or forgotten by the world. The image instantly occupied his mind and made his blood boil.
He seemed to see Yu Duo's parents climbing up from the pile of corpses and pushing their young son out of the surrounding fire. Their eyes were firm and there was a kind smile on their faces.
Although you are immature now and have not yet discovered the essence of being a ghost exorcist, one day you will be able to see that the fire in this world is burning with civilization and hope, rather than the separation of life and death and the abyss of illusion.
Go check it out for us.
...
Those people who were buried in Yin Yang Street never regretted Xun Baishan at that moment, and they also understood that those who survived were the deepest love of their predecessors.
Now, flowers can bloom even in barren soil, and people embrace each other bravely, no longer afraid of the dark night.
