Volume 1 The First Arrival Chapter 60 The Story of the Scarecrow

This is the first time I have teamed up with Long Yuan after awakening, and this time, I seem to feel that my consciousness is connected with Long Yuan's consciousness, although it has not reached the realm of human and sword unity, but in the case of Long Yuan's consent, it has also reached the realm of sword movement and heart communication, and the Dragon Yuan sword at this moment burst out with a very different style from the past.

The Sword of Kings is truly extraordinary!

The two ordinary scarecrows were vulnerable, and we continued to walk forward to the middle of the town.

It stands to reason that the center of the town should be the most prosperous and lively place, but in the center of the town is a rice field.

Maybe it's because of the scarecrow.

The girl seemed to see my doubts, and she said, "Originally, there was a rice field in the center of the town, and whenever the rice flowers bloomed, the fragrance of rice would spread to every corner of the town, so this town was called Daoxiang Town before. ”

"Why are there rice fields in the underworld?" I wondered, because yin and yang are not connected, if the plants in the yang world come to the underworld, they will die quickly because of the lack of sunlight.

And the girl said, "This is the straw of the underworld, not the yang." ”

This is! Plants of the underworld?

Why are they so similar to the yang world, are they originally a kind of plant, but they are also divided into yin and yang.

Without further ado, the girl led me towards the rice field, which was vast, and I walked vigilantly in the rice field, because I did not know if there would be anything strange in the rice field.

Not long after, I saw a clearing in the distance, and there were many scarecrows on the clearing, and those scarecrows looked a little rough, not as delicate as the scarecrows in the town.

In the center of the group of scarecrows was a simple thatched house, and I saw a blood-red scarecrow in front of the thatched house.

Without saying a word, I took out the fiery charm directly, ready to burn this strange place directly, but the girl didn't seem to say anything about letting me make a move, she just stood like that, silently looking at the scarecrow in front of the hut.

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

"Yan'er, you're here." The voice came from the front, in the direction of the thatched house, and it seemed to be a woman!

The scarecrow stopped making up and I didn't attack, but the sigil in my hand was ready at all times.

The girl choked up and said to the front, "Yes, I'm coming." ”

"It seems that the two servants I left on the road were knocked down."

"They're gone." The girl said.

"That's it, just two puppets. Yan'er, I don't understand why you are doing everything possible to oppose me, everything I do is for our future! The scarecrow's tone was a little emotional, but also a little confused and confused.

The girl said excitedly, "Because you did something wrong!" It is a wrong thing that heaven and earth do not tolerate! You want to kill the souls of the whole town for your own selfish desires, and on that basis, shouldn't I stop you! ”

As soon as the girl's voice fell, the scarecrow laughed uncontrollably, and she laughed: "Hahaha! Selfish desires, hahaha! I'm doing it for my own selfish desires. So in that case, what about them! If it weren't for their own selfish desires, why would they put me to death! Just because I'm in love with you! Just because of a rule-breaking, an ethereal bullshit god! Pull me out alive and sacrifice the broken stones! ”

The girl pointed to the scarecrow and cried, "What about you! What's the difference between you and them now! You're going to experiment with the ghosts of an entire town for the sake of a false rumor! ”

The scarecrow roared angrily, "We are different! They are for their own safety, and they are afraid of some bullshit gods. And I'm not afraid! I'm for you, I'll do anything! ”

The girl sighed and said, "Then you can't let this town go for my sake." ”

The scarecrow said viciously, "No! I'm going to kill it back! I'm going to go back to that time and kill all the people who got in our way, all the people who killed me! ”

"Hundreds of thousands of years have passed in the underworld, and you still can't let go? When I heard the news of your death, I immediately reported the matter to the government and sent them all to prison, and then I was afraid that you would be alone, so I came down to look for you. But I didn't expect you to be like this when I found you. Cloud, you have been blinded by hatred, and if you don't look back, you will be in ashes! ”

The girl said almost pleadingly to the scarecrow, and the scarecrow seemed to see something, and said excitedly: "No, no, you are not suicidal!" It's them, they're the ones who forced you to death, right? I'm going to kill them all and avenge you! ”

As he spoke, the scarecrow's bright red body began to ooze blood, and the town in the distance seemed to let out a burst of wails, and I seemed to see a large amount of yin qi drifting onto the scarecrow's body through the surrounding medium.

The girl covered her mouth and cried and said, "Please also ask Childe, can you spare her life......"

I looked at the scarecrow's monstrous yin qi and couldn't help but mutter, I don't know if I can beat her.

It's all your fault, just go up and her, it's over, now it's okay, she's angry.

Ay...... I don't care about it, just take out the fire charm and throw one first to see how it works.

If the effect is good, strike while the iron is hot and kill him! If the effect is not good, I can only think of another way, and there is nowhere to run if I escape, my scarecrow is still in her hand.

The scarecrow absorbed a large amount of Yin Qi, and suddenly, she turned her head to look at me and said sharply, "I'll kill you first!" Eventful guys! ”

I clenched the Long Yuan Sword in my right hand, holding the Fire and Thunder Twin Talisman left and right, I haven't gone to look for you yet, you came to me first!

Last time, you were careless and let you take the lead, but this time it may not be the same!

The scarecrow rushed over, and I was not to be outdone, a fiery charm was thrown towards the scarecrow's head, and then turned sideways to dodge the scarecrow's attack, and the Long Yuan sword slashed towards the scarecrow's waist.

The scarecrow changed course in an instant, dodging the attack of the sigil and me.

She dodged the fiery charm, but the scarecrow behind her wouldn't move.

I only heard a 'boom', and a large sea of fire appeared in the countryside.

The Fire Charm is drawn with the finest materials, and its target is extremely flammable dry straw. Before, I wondered if the straw in the underworld could be lit, but it seems that I was too worried.

The scarecrow obviously didn't expect this to happen, and she looked at the sea of fire around her in a daze, and just as she didn't know what to do, my other fire charm had already flown out.

This fire charm is aimed at another pile of scarecrows, and another fire charm is thrown out, and the target is the thatched house!

The thatched hut is where the scarecrow lived, so I'm afraid there will be some secret in it.

Maybe there is a scarecrow spirit.

When the scarecrow saw the direction in which the fiery charm was flying, he immediately let out a sharp roar.

"No!"

I saw that she immediately ran towards the thatched house, and even picked up the scarecrow tied next to her to stop the fire charm from destroying the thatched house.

And how can I do what she wants, my goal is to destroy her completely!

No matter how pitiful she is, she has been my mortal enemy from the moment she started attacking me.

I held the Longyuan Sword in my hand and stopped in front of her, and without saying a word, I swung the sword directly.

The target is locked on her head, I don't know if it's her mutated straw hardness, or if the king Long Yuan is sharper.

She doesn't seem to be in love with fighting, but I can see that she doesn't have much actual combat experience, because before me, her opponents were just some unarmed villagers, and last time she relied on surprise to defeat me.

She took a step back to pass on my right side, and I lifted the dragon abyss and swept straight over, while she leaned back and slid past my sword and headed straight for the thatched house.

I immediately threw out a thunderstorm charm, and she didn't notice the appearance of the thunderstorm charm at all, her eyes were fixed on the thatched hut that would start burning in front of her.

In an instant, a burst of thunder burst from the talisman, and the scarecrow bore the brunt.

Physically, straw is non-conductive, but everything in front of us can be guessed with common sense.

The scarecrow was struck by a thunderbolt, and the thunder burst from the thunderstorm charm instantly engulfed her, and she fell in response.

I rushed forward as fast as I could, holding the Longyuan sword, and jumped up, stabbing her in the back with a sword, directly pinning her to the ground, and the thatched house in front of me was also on fire.

But she didn't seem to care about her injuries, and she cried and looked in the direction of the thatched house.

"Nope! No! Yan'er, why are you doing this to me! Yan'er, you can't go! ”

I didn't understand what she meant by that, the girl was standing there, never leaving a single step.

The fire instantly engulfed the entire thatched house, and even the straw around the thatched house was also swept into the flames, and the raging fire lit up the entire sky.

When the sky is on fire, it is not the spark of hope that will appear, but the wail of death.

The scarecrow cried and struggled to move towards the thatched hut, and she choked up, "Yan'er, everything I do is for you!" You can't do this to me, you can't! ”

I pulled my sword out of her body, for I felt that the yin energy in her body had almost disappeared, and her yin energy had escaped from the town and returned to the innocent townspeople.

As soon as the scarecrow was able to move, she ran towards the thatched hut, which was still on fire, but she ran into it desperately.

After a while, the scarecrow came out of the hut, her body covered in ashes, and behind her, the blood-red straw was almost on fire.

And she was holding a person in her arms, that person's eyes were closed, and his body was almost engulfed by the fire, and if he was too late, the other half of his body would probably be gone.

But when I fixed my eyes, wasn't this the little girl who came with me!

I looked in amazement at the girl standing not far away, and she looked at me with a smile and looked at the scarecrow in front of me.

Slowly, the girl's figure began to blur, and then I realized that she was just a consciousness, just like the boy, and her spirit was lying in the thatched hut, carefully tended by the scarecrow.

The girl said to the scarecrow: "Yun, don't do this again, no matter how hard you try, we can't come back to life, this time, it's Yan'er's turn to take the first step." Just let this town go. ”

After saying that, the girl's figure became illusory, and due to the mutilation of the spirit body, her consciousness began to slowly dissipate, and finally turned into nothingness.

"Ahh ……”

The scarecrow looked up to the sky and roared, she angrily scolded the injustice of fate, they were born in the wrong era, their love is not wrong, it is the whole world that is wrong.

Slowly, the blood-red straw on the scarecrow began to fall, and when the straw fell, it was replaced by a beautiful face full of blood and tears.

But then, her face became bloody and her body was full of holes, and there was hardly a trace of human appearance.

Is this what she looked like when she died? I have to say that that society was really cruel at that time.

She hugged half of the girl's body and cried bitterly: "Yan'er, you are gone, you are so ruthless." What do you mean by leaving me alone in this cold underworld! ”

She stood up, hugged the girl's body, and walked back into the fire.

And I didn't stop her.

All this can be said to be her own fault, they could have lived happily in the underworld, just like Pu Feng and Qin Fu. But her revenge was too heavy, which led to this tragic situation.

When it comes to my presence, I feel like I've done nothing wrong, because when I look at the smiling townspeople in the town, I feel like I'm doing the right thing.

I silently left Straw Town, under the watchful eyes of the townspeople.

Suddenly, one of the townspeople shouted at me, "Benefactor! ”

Immediately after, the sound of one after another sounded, and I walked straight forward without looking back.

"Where is the benefactor going?" An elderly ghost asked, following me.

"I don't know."

"Will the benefactor come back?"

"I don't know."

"Dare to ask the name of the benefactor?"

"Anonymous."

Since then, there has been an additional statue in the endless rice fields of Straw Town, and there is such a passage under the base of the sculpture.

'After the matter, the clothes are gone, and the merit and fame are hidden.

- Anonymous'

I continued to walk towards the endless Gobi alone, and I don't know what was waiting for me in front of me, and I couldn't go to the city yet, because I was afraid that the streets and alleys of the city were already plastered with my portraits.

I don't know where I'm going, but my goal is simple, that is, to become the king of ghosts, and then kill back, and let me gallop through the vast underworld.

But right now, I don't even know how to cultivate Yin Qi.

In the past, when I was in the human world, I could still absorb the yin energy of ghosts, but now in the underworld, Meng Po forgot to tell me how to cultivate yin qi and how to become a ghost king.

I had nothing to do, so I chatted with Long Yuan.

"Senior Long Yuan, how is your consciousness restored?"

Long Yuan didn't speak, because it had said it before, and it had recovered about eighty percent.

"Senior Long Yuan, what's going on with your dragon soul? Aren't you a dragon soul yourself? ”

Long Yuan opened his mouth and said, "The dragon soul is the sword soul, and I am the consciousness of the sword soul. ”

I nodded, I see, Long Yuan is also like a human, with a body, a soul, and a consciousness.

I looked at the Longyuan Sword in my hand and asked suspiciously, "Isn't your sword soul here, how can you still say that the sword soul is incomplete?" ”

Long Yuan said: "Here? Do you want to see what I really look like? ”

"What does it really look like? What do you mean? As soon as I finished speaking, I saw the Longyuan Sword in my hand slowly begin to change.

Its sharp blade was gone, replaced by a blade full of gaps.

Its smooth blade began to break, and then the blade fell apart, leaving only the blade two inches above the hilt remaining, and the rest had been reduced to nothingness.

"This! What's going on? "How did a sword that was so good just now come to be like this?

Long Yuan said: "This is what I really look like now, my sword soul has become fragmented and scattered all over the underworld, and I can only find the fragments of the sword soul if I regain consciousness." ”

"Why did your sword soul shatter?" I asked a substantive question, there is a reason for the destruction or destruction of a thing, let alone the world-famous Seven Star Dragon Yuan.

Long Yuan said: "Back then, after the death of the King of Chu, I followed the King of Chu to the underworld. At that time, the battle in the underworld was not over, and the battle in the underworld had begun again, and the underworld was divided into two factions at that time, fighting fiercely day and night, and there was no peace, and it was in that battle that I interrupted the sword soul and fell silent forever. After that battle ended, the king of Chu put me in the Meng Po Mansion on the day of his reincarnation. ”

"Where are your sword souls scattered?" I asked.

Long Yuan said: "Every corner of the underworld is possible, because when my sword soul was broken, there was only one layer of the underworld, and when the capital was on the throne, the underworld was divided into ten layers, and I didn't know where the sword soul was scattered. ”

"So how do you find this?" I said helplessly.

Long Yuan asked, "You want to help me find the sword soul?" ”

I said, "Of course, senior, I said that I want your approval!" ”

Long Yuan was silent for a long time, and I didn't speak, walking forward silently.

After a long time, Long Yuan said: "Actually, after my consciousness is restored, I can feel where the sword soul is. My sword soul is scattered on the tenth and fourth layers, and the three fragments of the tenth layer are scattered on a plain, where there is a large peach forest, if you can retrieve my sword soul, I will approve of you. ”

"In that case, let's go."

With that, I put away Long Yuan and continued to walk forward.

"Wait!" Long Yuan said suddenly.

I stopped and asked, "What's wrong, Senpai." "I thought that Long Yuan had repented, or that he wanted to increase the difficulty, after all, it should be very simple to find the fragments when Long Yuan could perceive the fragments of the sword soul.

Long Yuan said to me, "You went the other way. ”

In this way, I passed through Straw Town again, and the revenant spirits who were wandering outside the town saw me and suddenly shouted, "The benefactor is back!" ”

In an instant, the ghosts of the town poured out, and I walked quickly under their bewildered gaze.

"Where is the benefactor going?"

The old ghost asked me again, and I replied, "Go to a place full of peach blossoms." ”

"Can the benefactor come back after he goes?"

"I don't know."

I didn't bother to pay attention to him, so I thought about leaving the place quickly, when a voice sounded behind me.

"Slow down!"
