Like a secret that has been sleeping for a long time.

The deep dense forest blocks out distant memories, and the dense foliage does not let in the light at all.

Spring and Autumn saw the withered altar, the stones on the ground had been shattered, and vague black patterns were vaguely solidified on it, and the candlesticks had also collapsed, and the fine and dense crawls were covered with mottled rust.

He saw the ancient totems carved on the stone slabs, with teeth and claws, and could not distinguish the original shape, only the huge human-faced dragon body stone statue still stood proudly, lonely and ignoring the soil abandoned by the gods.

The blue vines spread, covering the girl's curled up thin body.

The dexterous snake came out of nowhere, its crimson eyes revealing an awe-inspiring cold light, and swayed and crawled up the girl's bare forearms.

Maybe it was the long cyan worm that was too cold, or maybe it was the sharp snake scales that stung the skin, the girl trembled slightly, and she was covered with a red scarf in front of her eyes, and she couldn't see her expression, only her lips that opened and closed naturally, trying to make broken syllables.

The cold-blooded poison also sensed the change, and its triangular head was raised, and the slender snake hyacinth stirred the air with unease.

The deep dense forest was still impermeable, but there was a slight friction between the branches and leaves.

The girl's body curled up more and more, as if she was about to knead herself violently, and her skin began to become transparent, like a pure transparent container.

Starting from the slender neck, fine beads of blood continued to seep out, and they soaked the stone slab under the girl's body, like a silent baptism.

The friction between the leaves finally turned into an uncontrollable tremble, and even the intertwined vines seemed to be conscious, and they frantically retreated, avoiding every drop of blood that fell.

Sensing the threat, the serpent straightened up, its bloody mouth facing the artery in the girl's neck.

In an instant, the cold light flashed, the twisted runes bloomed with dazzling light in the blood, and the girl's suddenly unfolded body was like a sharp blade, and the snake body that had been removed shattered into several broken pieces in the air, and fell straight on the huge idol.

All the branches and leaves faded and decayed in an instant, accumulating into a thick layer of dust.

The girl who was struggling to stand opened her mouth wide but couldn't make any sound, and the runes all over her body were like karmic fires in prison, and behind her, thick blood oozed from the fine dragon patterns on the stone statue.

She stood among the dust of heaven and earth.

I don't know how long later, the girl sat back down on the stone, the karmic fire on her body had been extinguished, and the dense runes retreated, leaving only a small piece on her arm, which was dazzling and clear.

The girl's chest rose and fell violently, but she couldn't hear the breath, the blood stains on the ground dried up quickly, the accumulated dust fell back to its original appearance, the collapsed candlestick was still covered with rust, the blue vines were still unscrupulous, and the girl curled up back into a small lump.

The shattered snake body also returned to its original state, it seemed to have no memory of the sudden death at all, it raised its head, spat out the slender snake hyacinth, and then swayed from side to side, clinging to the soft little arms of the maiden.

The girl didn't move, she seemed to fall into a deep sleep, and the green snake began to get tired, it coiled its long tail up, and slept in the girl's cold arms.

Between heaven and earth, it was as if nothing had happened.

Chunqiu opened his eyes, this was the third time he had dreamed of this scene after returning to Tianyu Town.

Spring and Autumn has been practicing the Tao since childhood, and he is a person who has removed the root fruit of karma, and such frequent and repeated dreams are simply incredible to him.

There was no light in the dim room, he sat up cross-legged, listening to the faint sound of beating outside the building, impartially just after the fourth watch, he was shocked, he had been resting for so long.

Xie Yi, who jumped down from the top of the mountain, repeatedly expelled him from the power of consciousness, and the strange girl in the dream condensed into a big group of questions in Chunqiu's heart.

The edge of the window "da-da-da" knocked three times, and Chunqiu jumped off the bed lightly.

Opening the window, a small paper crane came in from outside, flapping its wings and circling the room twice, and landed firmly on the edge of the table at hand, which was a reply from senior sister Qingjiang.

Picking up his fingertips and occupying two tricks, the little paper crane flapped its wings and jumped up, and before it reached the palm of Feifengcheng, it suddenly "snapped" and dragged its wings to the ground.

Chunqiu was stunned, he hesitated to look at the paper crane for two or three seconds, and suddenly returned to the bed and sat down, holding his breath and concentrating, he finally found that something was wrong.

From the time he was expelled from the consciousness of the lockdown, he should have noticed that the spiritual power that supported his spells was rapidly draining, he had obviously rested for several hours, but now he couldn't even use a complete spell.

Something was sucking his energy, but he didn't know it, not even why.

With a flash of panic, Chunqiu comforted himself that it should be an illusion, after all, as a young man who has been cultivating for more than ten years, his biggest advantage should be the seemingly inexhaustible vigorous energy of young people.

Leaned out of bed, picked up the fallen paper crane again, this time he didn't dare to be careless, he carefully lit the candle, and then threw the paper crane into the firelight, with a crisp birdsong, the warm firelight jumped out of the sister's beautiful handwriting.

To Chunqiu's disappointment, based on his description in a few words, Senior Sister couldn't decipher the reason for Xie Yi's coma, but at the end of the letter, some messy information was attached, which was still what Chunqiu asked Senior Sister for when escorting military rations, and some records about the mountain gods in the Tianyu Mountains.
