Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Sacrifice

Jiang Zhengxin and Baili returned to southern Sichuan and traveled all the way south, during which Baili returned to the south of Sichuan, and Jiang Zhengxin did not say much, riding a little black horse and silently following behind his horse.

They walked a long way, so far that even Jiang Zhengxin didn't know where he was, until they passed a barren land, and only dismounted when they returned a hundred miles before returning to a dense forest, and pointed to the dark mountain forest in front of them and said: "This is Murong Villa." ”

Jiang Zhengxin couldn't see any shadow of the villa, only the towering ancient trees and thorny vines blocking in front of them. Each ancient tree is more than two arms wide, and the giant vine is as thick as a pillar, and the spikes on it are densely covered with spikes that are longer than the forearms and sharper than the needle. Jiang Zhengxin had never seen such a strange vine, and guessed that there should be the mana of fairy spirits attached to it.

She was secretly wondering how to get in, when Baili Gui had already reached the edge of the woodland, knelt down and whispered something, and then the thorn vines scattered in all directions, and the ancient trees displaced, making way for a way.

Jiang Zhengxin was greatly surprised, and followed Baili Gui to lead the horse uphill, and then she saw that the ancient trees and thorns behind her quickly returned to their positions, forming a natural barrier to block the entry of others.

Bones kept appearing on the side of the road, and the further they went, the more bones they were, or they clung to their swords and knives, or they became entangled with other bones, or they triggered the trap to go up the hill and were shot next to it.

Jiang Zhengxin had already guessed that they were all those who died in the duel between Murong and Baili, and sighed secretly: "How much hatred should affect tens of millions of people and lose their lives. ”

Bailigui heard it, but he didn't speak, and continued to lead the horse forward.

Jiang Zhengxin's gaze retracted from a mechanism and sighed: "The Murong family's mechanism skills are worthy of being the best in the world, and there are obviously more people who die from organs than in fights. ”

Baili Gui said: "You should be glad that these people have touched all the mechanisms, otherwise it will be a big difficulty for you to go up the mountain." ”

Jiang Zhengxin nodded: "I once read the handwriting left by Murong Changge's predecessors, and the mechanism she created is really unprecedented. ”

Baili Gui said quietly: "She is very powerful." ”

Jiang Zhengxin hesitated for a moment and asked, "I always thought that my predecessor was the descendant of the Baili family, but at this moment, Mr. seems to know the Baili senior." ”

Bailigui said: "Yes, I know her. ”

Jiang Zhengxin was slightly shocked, Murong Changge had died a hundred years ago, if Bailigui knew her, then he would be at least more than a hundred years old.

"Is the gentleman a cultivator?"

"It's not."

"Mr. ......"

Baili Gui turned his head and looked at Jiang Zhengxin through the black veil: "I am the one who has returned the soul." ”

What the?

Jiang Zhengxin was shocked: "Sir...... You're not kidding me, are you? ”

"Of course not."

Jiang Zhengxin's body had begun to tremble slightly, but she still forced herself to ask calmly: "Why does Mr. want to borrow the corpse to return the soul, but do you have any unfulfilled long-cherished wishes?" ”

Baili Guidao: "I wandered in the underworld for a hundred years and did not want to be reincarnated, so I came back to save my brother and my people. ”

"People from the Baili family? Aren't they already dead? ”

"They are all dead, but not all of them died from sect fighting, but from the fairy curse."

Jiang Zhengxin: "...... Faerie curse? ”

"At that time, Murong Ji, the head of the Murong family, in order to revive his sister Murong Changge, angered the fairy spirit and sent a curse, at that time, the two factions were dueling, and the Baili family was innocently implicated, and more than 10,000 people from the two major sects all died in Murong Villa. But the immortal spirit did not give up, and cut the immortal soul into an enchantment and trapped all the dead souls in Murong Mountain forever, so that they could not be reborn. That's why when you come in, you see thorny bushes, which prevent outsiders from coming in, and enchantments that you can't see, which prevent souls from going out. ”

"If we can't break the barrier, won't we be able to get out?"

Bailigui nodded: "The girl is smart, this enchantment is just in and out." ”

Jiang Zhengxin smiled bitterly: "I finally know why Mr. said that it is very likely that he will die here." ”

The two of them have already walked into Murong Villa while talking, and the pavilions inside are still intact, but they are all covered with grass, trees, vines, and roses, but they can still vaguely see the style of the family that dominated the martial arts a hundred years ago.

Baili Gui no longer talked to Jiang Zhengxin, his steps began to hurry, and he was frantically searching in Murong Villa, and then he suddenly remembered something, and ran to an octagonal cornice, towering pavilion in the farthest distance.

Jiang Zhengxin didn't know why, so he also followed, and when he found Baili Gui again, he was kneeling beside a tall skeleton, gloomy and sad.

The owner of this skeleton died next to a crystal coffin, and the whole skeleton was filled with sharp arrows, which can be seen to have died from the mechanism set up next to the coffin.

Baili Gui was silent for a long time before he whispered to Jiang Zhengxin: "He is my brother, Baili Tianze." ”

Bailigui gently took the wooden box in the hand of the corpse bones and slowly stood up: "This is the fairy deer antlers, it was originally my brother who came to save Murong Changge, but I didn't expect to die in the end from the mechanism set up by Murong Changge, it is really a trick." ”

He rubbed the wooden box and did not open it: "The dead souls will dissipate and become invisible if they don't enter the underworld for a long time, but it just so happens that the fairy antlers are also on Murong Mountain, so these dead souls are attached to the spiritual power of the fairy antlers and have not died, if you want to use the fairy antlers to heal your beloved, you must first release the undead spirits in it, otherwise even if you use the fairy antlers with that person, he will be tortured to death."

Jiang Zhengxin asked, "Then how should the undead be released?" ”

"Sacrifice."

"......" Jiang Zhengxin already had an ominous premonition in his heart, "What sacrifice do we use?" ”

Baili replied, "It's you, girl." ”

Jiang Zhengxin smiled bitterly: "This is the condition that Mr. told me at the beginning." ”

"Yes, I borrowed the corpse to resurrect the soul, there is no way to sacrifice, all I can do is bring you here, and you are different from ordinary people, the sacrifice will be more effective. But the sacrifice had to be willing, so I can't force you, and you can only decide whether you want it or not. ”

Jiang Zhengxin didn't hesitate, looked at Baili Gui and said, "Okay, I'm willing, please ask Mr. to make it clear how to sacrifice." ”

"Your blood." Baili returned, "There are thousands of dead souls here, they all take a drop of the girl's blood and give it to the immortal soul guarding the enchantment, and the immortal soul will let them out." ”

"After this, will Sir return to the underworld with the undead?"

Bailigui shook his head: "I gave up the opportunity to reincarnate and escaped from the underworld, I can't go back, and when this matter is over, I won't be able to last long before my soul is gone." ”

Jiang Zhengxin arched his hand and said: "Mr. sacrificing himself to save the clansmen is really admirable!" ”

Baili returned and said: "The girl came here with me to save people, and she should understand my state of mind." ”

Jiang Zhengxin nodded, "Since Mr. won't return to the underworld, can you please ask Mr. to do me a favor?" ”
