Master respects him, the five elements are wicked

The moment Zhenzi showed his true colors, the feeling of someone peeping behind the two of them disappeared again.

Although the fire of karma was ferocious, as soon as he got near Xie Yu, he immediately became like a gentle puppy, dodging obediently, within the reach of Xie Yu's spiritual power, Fu Qingluan was also wrapped in it, in the blue-purple sea of ​​flames, The two stood in place, blending into it naturally, carefully searching for the source of the previous illusion.

After looking around, the two of them made a discovery at the same time, exchanged glances with each other, and acted unanimously.

Xie Yu led the way, and Fu Qingluan was behind. The two walked forward and backward, and came to the nearest broken house.

The earthen wall of the courtyard collapsed, leaving only the foundation of the wall. At the gate, two broken door panels hung sideways and swayed gently in the waves of karmic fire, making a slight "squeak" sound from time to time.

The two stepped over the base of the wall and entered the courtyard, but within a few steps, the feeling in the hearts of the two of them suddenly changed, and a faint faint breath came from the collapsed main house.

The door of the main room has long been missing, and it is covered with dense spider webs, layered on top of each other, drifting in the karmic fire, completely blocking the view of the house.

The two couldn't help but looked at each other, Fu Qingluan wanted to enter the house, but Xie Yu took a step ahead, using spiritual power to expand the already broken part of the wall, and ducked in with his head down.

Fu Qingluan had no choice but to follow behind.

Xie Yu stretched out his hands to protect Fu Qingluan's head so that he would not touch his head. After Fu Qingluan stood still, they looked into the room together.

The fire of karma circulated, vaguely, bright and dark, but as soon as Fu Qingluan raised his head, he was taken aback by the scene in front of him. In the dilapidated house, on the only intact Eight Immortals table, a child was sitting on it, He stared fiercely at him.

This child Fu Qingluan is not unfamiliar, he is one of the children who bullied the beggar during the day, at this moment, his eyes are like fire, with hatred floating on his face, it seems that he will rush towards Fu Qingluan in the next second .

However, Fu Qingluan immediately discovered that although the child's eyes were full of vitality, there was no trace of life on his body.

After waiting for a while, the child still didn't move, his eyes didn't blink, as if he was frozen.

Xie Yu waved one hand, and the stream of karmic fire dissipated in the house immediately, and everything in the house appeared in front of the two of them—although the house was simple, it was spotless, as if someone cleaned it frequently, and there were only a few pieces of rough wooden furniture In the scattered room, it has long been broken into crumbs. The child is sitting on the only as-new Eight Immortals table, holding his upper body with both hands. A piece of clothing was wrung out and hung there.

Fu Qingluan and Xie Yu have a tacit understanding to investigate separately.

The object was not hung low, Xie Yu floated up on the dragon, guarding against the object approaching the southeast corner.

The slight air flow caused by Xie Yu's approach made the object flutter, and indistinctly, the object spread a little bit, and Xie Yu couldn't help being taken aback when it came into view.

In order to confirm his own judgment, Xie Yu tried to inject his spiritual power into the object. The spiritual power was full, like blowing up a balloon, and the object gradually spread out from the inside, and soon it was in front of Xie Yu. It revealed its true face—it turned out to be a humanoid skin with beard, hair, and clothes on its body.

I saw that the skin had realistic eyebrows, three-dimensional facial features, and even the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes and the mole on the chin were clearly discernible. At this moment, the skin's lips were slightly parted, his hands were helping, his eyes were shining brightly, as if he was talking to Xie Yu of.

Xie Yu was afraid that he had made a mistake, so after pondering for a while, he checked carefully with his hands: the skin was warm to the touch, elastic when pressed, the beard and hair were smooth, the teeth in the mouth were sharp, the eyes were bright, except that there was no heartbeat and the weight was slightly lighter. In addition, it is impossible for people to make judgments easily.

Xie Yu got closer, carefully scrutinized the skin of the skin, compared it with himself, and confirmed them one by one, even the fine lines at the corners of the eyes and the fingerprints of the fingers, but the result made Xie Yu have to believe it. According to my own judgment, the leather bag is indeed not made of animal skin, but a fake human skin.

The human skin is intact. Xie Yu didn't miss every corner just now. He even tried the eyes, but he didn't notice a gap on the human skin where he could explore the inside. Reminiscent of the origin of the human skin, Xie Yu The expression in his eyes suddenly changed slightly.

After losing the surrounding of karmic fire, Fu Qingluan realized that the child on the table was not a mortal body at all, but looked like a lifelike statue. To confirm, he stepped forward a few steps, moved closer to him, and took a closer look. Sure enough, as he judged, this child is a statue made of unknown metal.

Seeing this, Fu Qingluan suddenly realized why he felt that way when he spanked the child's butt during the day. It was not that the child had any protective barrier at all, but that he himself was a metal statue.

Fu Qingluan probed, and there seemed to be a faint layer of spiritual power leaking from the statue, but there was still no other clue he wanted to find. After pondering for a moment, he concentrated the spiritual power on his hand, and looked sideways at Xie Yu, who landed beside him, said, "Yu'er, sweep the formation for the teacher."

"Master, let the apprentice come." Xie Yu immediately guessed Fu Qingluan's intentions. The room was weird, and he didn't want Fu Qingluan to be in danger easily. He had already informed Fu Qingluan of his discovery while speaking. .

Following Xie Yu's line of sight, Fu Qingluan saw the human-shaped skin floating on the corner of the wall, and a sense of disgust for this place suddenly arose in his heart, so he stopped insisting and left the matter of understanding the statue to Xie Yu.

With Xie Yu's spiritual power in hand, he prepared the general knowledge formula, and then slowly stretched his hand towards the statue.

The moment the spiritual power touched the statue, the statue suddenly flashed, a burst of spiritual power accompanied by strong thoughts burst out from the statue instantly, and the blue-purple karmic fire flowed out from between the eyebrows of the statue, instantly painting on the statue. A complex formation was formed, and then gathered on the top of the statue, and soon the growth version extended out and merged with the roof, covering the entire room on it.

When the statue flickered, four groups of strong thoughts wrapped in blue-purple karmic fire flew out from the top of the statue, and instantly came to the four corners of the house, blending with a few dry skins, and the karmic fire spreading in the house, At the same time, it was injected into the skin bag, blown up, and then slowly fell to the ground.

The auras of four living people appeared in front of Xie Yu and Fu Qingluan immediately. Seeing this scene, the two of them couldn't help being a little surprised.

The four skins, which were as dry as firewood just now, seemed to be revived in an instant, ignoring Xie Yu and Fu Qingluan, and began to work in the house, while the statue on the table gradually lost its luster on the surface, and moved towards the living person. The appearance is slowly changing.

Fu Qingluan tried to touch those four adults, but they were just like illusions, no matter Fu Qingluan or Xie Yu, the moment they touched, they would immediately pass through, as if the two sides were existences of different dimensions.

Fu Qingluan looked at everything in the house, his mind was spinning, and he carefully searched for the memories of his predecessor. Finally, the hard work paid off, and he still found the explanation for this scene-the flow of time and space.

The space-time flow array can project the memory of the soul into the present world, thereby constructing an illusion that is indistinguishable from the memory. Even Fu Qingluan has only read about this array from the Qingyang fragments, but because of the age, Even the introduction on the fragmented scroll is just a few sentences, and the language is vague, which makes people confused.

There were still a lot of doubts in his heart, but seeing that the child was about to be awakened, Fu Qingluan still felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he and Xie Yu retreated from the house.

However, as soon as the two returned to the street, everything in the house could not be felt immediately, as if the inconspicuous broken wall foundation separated the inside and outside of the courtyard into two worlds.

Just to be on the safe side, Xie Yu entered again, and sure enough, the room returned to the way it was when the two had just entered, Xie Yu then backed out and told Fu Qingluan the details.

After Fu Qingluan pondered for a while, he and Xie Yu explored all the dilapidated houses around him. As he expected, in every house, no matter how big or small it is, there must be a statue of a child in the lobby of the main house, with a human skin in the corner. Hanging, although the postures of the statues are different, they can all match up with the group of children I saw during the day.

The huge Cangqiong Town is clearly devoid of life, solidified by the karmic fire of hell, and its location is remote and difficult to find. It would be fine if it is covered up so that no one will find it, but it is necessary to use the lost ancient formation, which took so much effort. To keep this town "alive", who the hell did all of this, and why did he do it?

A few intractable questions disturbed Fu Qingluan's thoughts. He and Xie Yu stood on the main road in the town, watching everything around them quietly, and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, Xie Yu felt that peeping gaze again amidst the deadly karmic flames covering the entire town.

"Master." Xie Yu looked at Fu Qingluan, and was about to tell him about it, but from Fu Qingluan's expression, he seemed to feel the same thing as himself.

This time the line of sight is a little different from before, although it is still covered, it allows the two of them to perceive the direction of the line of sight.

"This way." Fu Qingluan stopped hesitating, took a step back, and headed towards the determined direction.

After a long time, the two arrived at a dilapidated temple on the edge of the town.

The closer he was to this place, the stronger the sight became, and mixed with the sight, there was even a trace of a living person's aura.

This is the first time for the two of them to come here, but without hesitation, Youlong cleared the way, and Fu Qingluan and Xie Yu entered the temple side by side.

The temple is small and dilapidated, the courtyard is littered with stones, ancient trees are stacked upside down, and there is almost no place to stay. Following the sight and breath, the two people did not stop, stepped over the debris in the courtyard, and went straight into the main hall of the temple.

Most of the hall was dilapidated and dirty, while a small half was as clean as new. Fu Qingluan and Xie Yu immediately noticed the sense of incongruity in the stream of karmic fire. On the spirit altar, which occupied half of the hall, there were no statues of gods enshrined. Ghost sculpture, but a small child.

It's just that this child is different from the statues in every home before. Only a small half of his body looks like a statue, while the other half is still a living person. However, on top of this half, a group of earthworm-like red Something was wriggling in and out of his body and on the surface of his body, and at the same time spit out a blue-purple silk thread wrapped in a layer of mist from his mouth, corroding the child's white and tender skin.

Seeing Fu Qingluan and Xie Yu enter, the child's originally slumped face suddenly flashed a gleam of joy, his lips squirmed, as if he wanted to say something, but there was no sound coming from inside, he was unwilling The left arm that was entwined by the group of earthworms was lifted slightly, but only a little, the arm drooped back disobediently, the child's eyes suddenly dimmed, tears glistened with sadness, Want to cry.
