Chapter Eighty-Three: The Truth About the Town

"This is the place to pray." The nun looked indifferently in front of her, and casually pointed to the dried tree in front of her.

Gu Mo looked around casually, the dead trees stood unevenly, as if they would fall to the ground when the wind blew, and the tree that the nun pointed to was the most "strong" among them.

Unfortunately, the tree was already dying, so he stepped forward and poked his finger down the trunk, and a small hole was opened.

He raised his eyebrows, this is not too hard, why did he poke a hole directly! Did the nun come to find them happy?

Gu Mo let out a long breath, forced a smile, turned around and said, "Are you sure that this broken tree is a place to pray?!" ”

Suddenly, a chill hit from behind him, and only Qiyou and him were left here, but the nun was long gone.

"Where's she?"

"Gone."

"When?"

"Just now."

"Do you want to pray then?" Gu Mo paused, and looked at Qi You nervously.

"No." Qi Youyou replied.

"Why?" Gu Mo asked.

"You don't like me, and I don't have feelings for you, you're just playing on the spot." Qi You walked forward silently, the bottom of her eyes was already glowing red, she didn't look at Gu Mo, the two black daggers in her hands whispered.

The next moment, she jumped up and cut down directly at the dead tree.

The two knives fell, her double dagger slashed through the trunk of the tree, and after turning around, she and Gu Mo both looked at the dead tree in shock.

The series of actions of Qi You just now obviously cut down the dead tree, but it only shook a few times, and not even a single dead leaf fell.

Qi You looked at the dead tree with a blank face, and was raising the dagger, when a warm big hand grabbed her wrist.

"Wait a minute, I'll try!" The breeze blew, and there was a whisper in her ear, Gu Mo's figure had appeared in front of the tree, he pulled out the long sword at his waist, waved his arm, and the sword light flickered.

She clearly watched that each of Gu Mo's swords fell straight on the trunk, but it was the same, it clearly cut through the trunk, and there was no trace left.

Gu Mo stopped, took a few steps back, stood beside her, and asked, "Do you see clearly?" ”

"Well, the tree is an illusion." Qi You nodded, but she immediately shook her head and said, "No, it's not an illusion, it's the nun!" ”

"Nun? What do you mean? ”

As soon as Gu Mo's words fell, Qi You slapped him, and he didn't have time to react, and was directly shocked out of the distance.

"You?!" After he stood firmly, he suddenly raised his head, and there was some anger in his words, but then, he looked at Qi You in surprise and trembled.

"Don't come here!" Qi You's eyes were already red, and his back was to him.

Suddenly, Gu Mo blinked in disbelief, expecting that after his eyes were closed and opened, the picture in front of him would be different.

But in the end, his eyes widened, and there was a wisp of black smoke around Qi You's side, and the big tree she faced gradually transformed into a face, which was the nun's face.

The dead branches began to writhe, coming at her in the trail of black smoke.

Her hands were empty, motionless, and she looked coldly at the branch that was stabbing at her, and only snorted coldly.

Two black daggers descended from the sky, encircling her in a circle, sweeping the tree trunks that spread around her.

She slowly raised her hand, and a hollow purple bell appeared in her palm, and her mouth opened and closed, as if she was saying something but did not make any sound.

The purple bell floated up and down, making a little noise.

The faces of the people in the trees suddenly distorted, and the writhing branches of the trees were irregular, but they kept retracting and stabbing towards themselves.

"Who are you? Why in this town! Say! Qi You suddenly spoke, his voice resounded in the sky, and Gu Mo on the side was unconsciously in a trance, but then he immediately returned to normal, and the face in the tree was even more distorted.

"You, aren't—" The dead tree, in confusion, stopped halfway through its words, its face suddenly became clearer, and it gradually calmed down, "We are of the same kind, are you sure you want the blades to intersect?" ”

"No, we're not the same kind, and you've forgotten who you are after a long time?" Qi You asked softly.

"Heh, but with you, do you think you beat me?" The dead tree laughed instead, it squinted at Qiyou, and said disdainfully, "Didn't you come here to pray?" Why don't you dare? ”

"You've charmed them, but you can't charm me." With a wave of her hand, the purple bell rang, her pupils became redder and redder, and she was already red and black, she stared at the dead tree, and muttered in her mouth: "Immortal Zun soared, leaving a winning place, and here you will be married, you will stay together, so it is called the town of fate." ”

"Shut up!" The dead tree roared, and a branch wrapped around it stabbed straight at the purple bell.

With a few clangs, the double daggers fell to the ground, and the branches pierced directly into her body, she curled up and protected the purple bell in her arms, panting constantly, and blood spurted out of her mouth.

"If that's the case, you'll choose to protect the bell instead of protecting yourself." The dead tree looked at her triumphantly.

"So, what the hell is going on? Don't just look at her, I'm here too! Gu Mo sneered and held the long sword and walked towards it.

The next moment, half of the branches rushed towards him, and Gu Mo shouted in his mouth: "Ah You, you continue to do what you haven't done yet, this old witch attacks, I'll stop it!" ”

With a twist of his sword, sparks flew in all directions, and the blade swept away the branches like a fire.

Qi You's eyebrows trembled slightly, is he good at using fire? No matter what, let's find out how this shabby town came to be first!

The sword light flickered everywhere, and the sound of fighting did not stop, but her heart gradually calmed down, and the purple bell in her arms made a crisp sound again.

Pictures flashed in her red pupils, and her expression fluctuated slightly.

Tens of thousands of years ago, an immortal ascended, leaving a treasure land, descendants found that as long as there is a lover in this place to get married again, they will always stay together, so they built a temple for this, set up a town, called the town of fate.

At the beginning, everything here was very beautiful, and there were many immortal cultivators who came here to pray for marriage, and everything in the town was naturally contaminated with immortal energy.

In particular, the strongest tree in this dense forest is loved by people, and people think that it is the most spiritual, so they like to stay in front of it a lot.

After a long time, the tree really had a spirit, and it was happy to see that the couple of lovers finally became married.

Later, its cultivation gradually improved, until one day, when it could see through people's hearts, it suddenly discovered that some people's hearts were not as they appeared to be.

Some are greedy for each other's status and resources, some yearn for the feeling of love rather than true love, and some are even more terrifying, both parties are just using each other.

It was very unhappy, it was angry, it felt that the purpose of this place was not like this, so it took the initiative to make changes, and on its own, it really did make a principle for this town.

Only those who come here to pray will leave this town if they truly love each other, and those who can't tell the difference between sincerity and greed will be trapped here.

Originally, it only wanted to punish those trapped inside, and release them for a hundred years, but it was desperate to find that the people trapped inside had forgotten their former partner.

Eventually, it was lost, and as more and more people came here, more and more people were trapped here, and it didn't want to go on like this.

Because it didn't want to see those hypocritical people come here to pray again, it moved the town to the Purple Cloud Secret Territory.

Qi You wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and his eyes returned to pitch black, it turned out that this place is really called Yuyuan Town, not any Mystery Town.

The so-called Lost Heart Town,It's just the old man outside the town who laughed at himself.,In the town.,His lover lost his mind.,And he also wants to be lost.,Can't let go.。 He waited at the entrance of the town, always waiting for his beloved who knew that it was impossible to get out of the town to meet him.

And this nun was originally just a sapling that was sown when Immortal Venerable flew to the immortals.

"Why do you care about those people? Whether they want to love or not, what does it have to do with you? Qi You was very puzzled, she looked at the dead trees that were gradually defeated under Gu Mo's sword, and asked with doubts.

"In order to maintain this town, I'm afraid your spiritual power is no longer enough, you can't beat him." Qi You said again.

"What does it matter to me!" Several branches suddenly reversed direction and stabbed at her, Gu Mo waved his hand, and everywhere the sword light went, there were sparks, burning the branches completely.

He slashed his sword with ease, and the firelight formed a ring around the dead tree, shrinking and contracting.

"Gu Mo, you wait a minute!" Seeing that the ring of fire was about to burn to the dead tree, Qi You hurriedly spoke, and the ring of fire suddenly stopped.

She added: "If they don't love each other, what does it matter to you?" Why do you have to control those people? ”

"They prayed to me, and I tried my best to shelter them for a long time, but they lied to me, so do you think they should be punished?!" The dead tree twisted his face and yelled at Qiyou.

"However, this is not for you to manage, and it should be the senior who has already ascended to immortal to be in charge, you-" Qi You frowned, and she didn't know how to say it halfway through her speech.

She knows that it is very aggrieved, but she still doesn't particularly understand it, after all, it is not related to others, and it cares about other people's affairs on its behalf, isn't this adding trouble to itself?

The dead tree seemed to know what Qi You was thinking, and he didn't say anything else, just stared at Qi You and said, "You, so cold-blooded, I was wrong before, I am indeed not the same kind as you, but I just happen to be able to see through other people's hearts."

However, to someone like you who directly refuses to pray, I have met for the second time, you and him are really just playing, I thought you sincerely refused to pray with him, but now that I think about it, it is also wrong, you just think it is unnecessary.

You are different from the last person who refused to pray, she really doesn't want to do what she doesn't want to do, and you, if it's beneficial to him, you will pray. ”

A trace of anger flashed in Qi You's eyes, but she immediately calmed down, and she said indifferently: "If people don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed." I do choose to do things that are beneficial to me, but I don't believe in the blessings of the gods, what heaven-given treasures, it is so difficult to become an immortal, and there should be very few immortals in the sky, I don't believe that they will be free to take care of me. ”

As soon as her words fell, as soon as Gu Mo's long sword was retracted, the ring of fire instantly touched the dead tree, and the flames spread and burned its whole body, and after a few breaths, the dead tree turned into ashes.

"Are you alright?" Gu Mo looked at Qi You's blood all over his body, and asked a little nervously.

"It's fine." The purple bell gradually fell, and she flexibly reached out to tuck it into her arms and carefully put it away.

"Do you want me to help you sort out your spiritual veins?" Gu Mo looked at her worriedly and said again.

"No thanks." Qi You turned around and walked back, she said, "I still have to find Mo Xiaotong." ”

"Wait a minute!" Gu Mo grabbed her shoulder, turned her back, looked directly into her eyes, and said seriously: "I admit that I really didn't like you before, but I'm not acting on the spot." ”

Qi You was stunned and asked in surprise, "Do you mind what I said?" ”

"No, I just think that you are different from Mo Xiaotong and Bai Mu, they will not reject people thousands of miles away, even if they reject it in their hearts, they will not show it." Gu Mo said.

"Inner rejection? Are you talking about Bai Mu? Qi You was dazed for a moment, immediately shook off his hand, and said calmly: "Now we should go to Mo Xiaotong and them, instead of dwelling on this issue." ”

"Listen to me first, I don't understand, why were you kind to me when we first met, but then you kept avoiding me?" Gu Mo asked puzzled.

As soon as this sentence fell, Qi You looked at him in a daze, and it could be seen that there was confusion and dissatisfaction on his face, as well as a trace of grievance.

"That, I didn't-" She was just about to explain something, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Mo.

"I just want to get closer to you, and I'm not making a scene." He looked at Qi You word by word and said with great seriousness.
