Chapter 118: Once upon a time
Legend has it that the body of a person bitten by a Soul Eater will turn into a necrotic container, and the soul will not survive for more than three days in that person's body.
And after the soul dies, that body will become a walking corpse, constantly biting others, thirsting for new souls.
And the body of the new bitten person will once again become that kind of walking corpse-like soul necrotic container.
Qi Yao locked this little thing in his magic weapon and put it on his body, I really didn't expect that there would be such a rare beast here.
Legend has it that since the beginning of the Three Realms, there have only been a few soul eaters until now, and most of them have been completely eradicated after being discovered by the Heavenly Realm, but I don't know that there is another one here.
The Soul Eater is a cute pink ball, which looks like a fat cat when you look closely, and it is very cute, and it is precisely because of this appearance that people do not defend against it, and it is easy to be bitten.
Qi Yao accepted the soul devouring beast and looked at the sky that was gradually brightening in the east, another Mid-Autumn Festival night had passed, and another year had passed.
Qi Yao looked up at the sky, standing on the top of the mountain and watching the red sun rise is the most spectacular, as if there was Mu Yu's smiling face in that round of red sun.
Mu Yu, so many years have passed, are you okay? Where are you?
Under the sun, Chu drunk woke up slowly, sat up in a daze with his head that was about to crack in pain, closed his eyes and shook his head to sober up a little, but turned his eyes and saw a man in red standing at the head of the bed, who was humbly smiling at her with a charming smile, and when he saw her turn his head, he said, "Little priest, you are finally awake!"
"Ahh
There was actually an extra man in the room, and after being stunned for a moment, Chu Zui's first reaction was the same as all women, and after wrapping his body tightly with a quilt, he screamed.
Qi Yao hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth, leaned against her ear, the warm breath sprayed on the heel of her ear, making her body itch slightly, Qi Yao lowered his voice and said, "Shhh——, be quiet." ”
Chu Zui closed his mouth, opened his mouth and bit down hard according to Qi Yao's hand, Qi Yao immediately let go, and said slightly: "My hand is so good-looking, if you bite me, I will trouble you!"
After Chu Zui confirmed that his clothes were in good condition, he came out of the quilt and said unhappily, "What are you doing here?" said and measured his teeth to Qi Yao, who retreated to the edge of the table, with the intention of biting you again if he didn't tell the truth.
Qi Yao looked like a wronged resentful woman, protected her poor little hand, and said: "I really don't know what to do, yesterday I asked you about your soul to eat, I worked hard to take care of you all night, but you bit me back, I am really wronged like Lu Dongbin!"
Chu Zui stood up immediately, with a cold smile and approached Qi Yao step by step, every time he approached Qi Yao, he felt a little flustered, and gradually retreated, and finally retreated to the door with no way out, timidly looked at Chu Zui and swallowed saliva, and said, "You...... You...... What do you want to do?".
Chu Zui still approached with a smile, and said slowly: "Who do you say is the dog......?" Who told you to feed me the !! of the soul?"
Chu was drunk with anger, and although he was only at Qi Yao's shoulder, he still saw Qi Yao's neck and pressed it hard.
"Plop-" With a sound, the door was pressed open by Chu Zui, Qi Yao couldn't control his body and leaned back, and Chu Zui was caught off guard and pressed on him.
A few people who were cleaning the yard were immediately stunned, pretending not to see anything, and quickly hid in a place where Chu Zui and Qi Yao couldn't see and peeked.
"Huo ~ The priest originally liked the countryman?"
"And what about Your Majesty?"
"This raw rice is almost cooked, and Your Majesty can only admit it! You say, does the countryman like His Majesty or a priest?"
"It's hard to say, it's hard to say!"
Everyone knocked the melon seeds in their hands while secretly discussing this gossip.
Not far away, Sui Yu happened to come back from the palace, and said as he walked: "Sister, don't you have a premonition that there will be immortals to collect apprentices today? Your Majesty left a hundred civil and military officials in the Taiji Hall for this early morning, and asked me to invite you over......
I happened to walk to the courtyard and saw Chu Zui and Qi Yao who were about to get up, and they froze in place all of a sudden, and a trace of grievance flashed in their eyes.
Chu Zui and Qi Yao hurriedly got up and said in unison: "No, it's not what you think...... It was an accident!"
Holding his little hand, he walked up to Chu Zui with an aggrieved attitude, and yelled at Qi Yao: "You, don't get close to her!"
Qi Yao snorted and said, "I don't know who pressed whom?"
Chu Zui hurriedly pulled Sui Yu away, and said as he walked: "Okay, okay, the celestial phenomena show that there will indeed be immortals coming to accept apprentices today, let's go quickly, don't let the emperor wait in a hurry!"
Sui Yu glared at Qi Yao, and went to the palace with Chu Zui, although it has been very chaotic since last night, Chu Zui understood a little bit with her pain, it turns out that she really needs to feed on her soul, whether she accepts it or not, this is an indisputable fact.
Arriving at the palace, Chu Zui led everyone to the rooftop.
The sacrificial platform is located in the center of the entire imperial city, with a radius of thirty miles, all of which are covered with white stones, surrounded by a ten-zhang high wall, and a battalion of private soldiers is sent to protect it.
There are 30 tiers of terraced seats on both sides of the altar, all of which are covered with silk and soft for the ministers.
On both sides of the altar, there are two high elevated pavilions in the air, and in the pavilion, Bai Yu set up two chairs for the banquet, one for the emperor to sit on, and the other for the priest to do.
The Tianqi National Sacrifice Rooftop, generally only when the big event will be opened, all open days, the surrounding stairs are full, and even the large square in front of the Altar will be surrounded by the people in the imperial city.
Today, in order to welcome the gods in Chu Zui's prophecy, it was opened early in the morning, and a group of people waited from morning to noon, and from noon to night, the surrounding of the altar was illuminated by torches, the autumn wind blew the flames from time to time, and there were sparks constantly jumping around restlessly.
There is still no movement of God.
Not to mention that the people were scattered, even the ministers were talking about it, the emperor hesitated again and again, and finally leaned on Qi Yao tiredly, and said listlessly: "Guoshi, can you help me ask the priest, is this immortal still coming?"
Qi Yao looked up at the sky, supported the emperor, let him look ahead, and said, "It's here!"
As soon as Qi Yao's words fell, a warm yellow light suddenly shot down from the sky, and a "boom-" sound descended on the center of the sacrificial roof, and when it landed, a layer of white dust was stirred up.
Everyone immediately turned from listlessness to holding their breath, their eyes were reluctant to blink at the center of the sacrifice, the smoke and dust dissipated, and a beast with a horse body and a human face and tiger stripes appeared in the center of the altar, and a black-clothed immortal sat on the beast.
The immortal exuded spiritual light all around his body, with a simple silver mask on his face, covering his eyes, which was even more mysterious, and used the most standard way of appearance of the immortal to descend into the public's field of vision.
