27 Lost

Shen Shuyi followed all the way to the outside of the town, but found that Wu Lingyu had disappeared.

The sky became more and more gloomy, as if it was holding back a heavy rain, Shen Shuyi muttered outside the forest for a while, and did not chase into the forest to look for it.

More than three hundred years have passed since the Gu family's incident, and the truth has already become tattered in the flown of time, and the danger of continuing to follow is still unknown. Once his current self-preservation ability encounters something, I am afraid that only the two immortals of the Dark Yang can save his life, but the meaning of the Yang Immortals is very clear, they can save his life, but as a price, he may not have a chance to go out.

He didn't have the capital to act rashly, so he had to be careful in everything, and the clues on Wu Lingyu's body were not obvious, in order to find out the truth of the Gu family, he had to know the meaning of the Dark Sun Mirror for him to see these.

The Gu family's ruined family, what does it have to do with the Shen family? What did the Stygian Mirror want to see on him before letting him out? That's the right thing to do, and it's just a lot of effort to keep up with the answers to these questions.

After making up his mind, Shen Shuyi first walked to the small courtyard where the bone box was buried, bowed to the dead tree, and dug up in front of the tree.

Yao Yao didn't look carefully before, he thought that the box was inlaid with gold, but he realized that it was not.

Not only is it not gold, but even metal, these yellow talismans are embedded in the cracks of the box, and it is said that after hundreds of years of burial in the ground, the paper should have rotted and broken a long time ago, but these rune papers are very well preserved. Shen Shuyi stretched out his hand and touched it to understand that these talismans were brushed with a protective layer as transparent as resin, so not only did they not decay for hundreds of years, but they also shimmered like gold from a distance.

Carefully opening the box, the twisted bones were full, presumably because they had never been touched, the position between the bones had barely changed, and it was clearly visible that two parts of the spine had been broken, and the ankle bone was completely broken.

This kind of death is more devastating than the five horses' corpses, Shen Shuyi didn't dare to touch it directly, but only looked at it carefully.

Of course, he couldn't see if the bones in this box were missing, or how many, but at first glance, he sensed that something was wrong. The first thing is that the color of the bone is wrong.

A hundred years after death, if there is no serious illness, the bones should be gray-yellow, but Gu Yunqi's bones are black in many places, especially the spine and skull, which are extremely strange when you look closely.

But all the black and purple colors, etc., give people the first impression that they are caused by poison, and Shen Shuyi also has some suspicions, but this is different from the situation he knows, and the only thing that can be determined at the moment is that even if she dies without this punishment, her life will not be long.

The second thing is that she was sure she had died before she was put in the box, for the obvious reason that a hole the size of a baby's fist had been cut in the top of the skull, and the skull at the edge had turned completely jet-black.

If the skull is broken by an external force, then there must be a crack, or even the entire skull, but the edge of the hole is neat and smooth, unless someone shaves her hair and cuts it with a knife little bit.

However, this idea was really unrealistic, and the thought was fruitless, so Shen Shuyi temporarily kept it in his heart and continued to look at the bone box.

The removal of the bones is the box itself, and this method of punishment is usually for the guilty woman, and the box is just an ordinary wooden box, and it is also used to carry it in a round food box, but this box is unusual.

Not only are talismans placed on the lid of the box, but different types of exorcism talismans are also painted with cinnabar on the six sides of the inside, if it is just to prevent Gu Yunqi's resentment from being too heavy after his death, and destroying her soul will not be over, why is there still a spell to suppress it?

There are a lot of doubts on this bone box, and he can't help but solve his doubts at no avail, and it only adds to his troubles. Shen Shuyi buried the box as it was after looking at it for a while, and then got up to leave.

Now in the mirror realm, he really doesn't have much power to borrow, but there is one place he is sure of - the Shen Family Ancestral Hall.

The Shen family's settlement in Quyun was also a matter of the early Qing Dynasty, and the Taoist skills of the ancestor Shen Lingxi are also known as the various families in the town until today, and the events of the Gu family back then are likely to appear in his family's classics.

Moreover, there should be a magic weapon hidden in his family's ancestral hall, he felt that he had forgotten something when he left the Shen family earlier, and now that most of the day has passed, the line of Wulingyu is likely to end here, and it is imperative to find clues for the Shen family soon.

There is never a shortage of boats in the water town, but there are good and bad big and small, he naturally has no time to entangle these at present, and he just took one on the waterway and rowed to the Shen family, this boat is dilapidated, narrow and long, but it saves more effort to row.

The water surface is filled with damp and cold water vapor, and the houses with white walls and black tiles on both sides seem to be shrouded in mist, and the scenery is quiet and desolate, making people feel lonely in vain.

Since coming to this place, he has felt so truly lonely for the first time, there may be everything he wants in this world, but there is also eternal loneliness, and this loneliness also makes him feel deeply lost.

In the mirror realm, he may have a kind of idea of what to do in the next moment, but in fact, what he did was just blindly trying all possibilities, here is full of unknowns, and his hope is as small as vast.

He once felt that he had relatives and friends behind him, and no matter what he encountered, he would never face it alone, but everything here made him understand that it was the blessing given to him by his family that allowed him to grow up safely so far, but the price of comfort was to become weak, so that now he can't believe that the so-called little hope is real for him.

He didn't dare to think about these things, because it seemed that only by thinking all the time could he give up his confusion and regain the motivation to go on in this lonely world.

Whether it's the immortal or his father, what they say is never wrong, he's just a waste, just a waste, he can't afford these things.

Shen Shuyi lowered his eyes and sighed, watching the clear water under the boat slowly empty himself, now is not the time to think about this, he still has countless unsolved mysteries, he still has something to do, now is not the time to despair.

People are good at deceiving themselves, but even if they know it in their hearts, sometimes it is better to continue. As long as this stick is still there, it can go on even if it is lying on its stomach, and if it is broken, it is the real fall into the abyss.

He is not yet unable to move forward, then he must continue to walk, no matter how little hope is, it is not despair.

The scenery in front of him slowly flowed by, the quaint mansion was getting closer and closer, Shen Shuyi's face was slightly gloomy, but the persistence in his eyes remained the same, and when the boat landed steadily, he took a few steps ashore and entered the Shen family compound from the small door.

The ancestral hall was not far away, he walked quickly, pushed the door, but was startled by the scene in front of him.

What caught his eye was an unusually thick white mist, Shen Shuyi almost thought that this was the same as those buildings that could not be seen outside, but this was in his home, not to mention that he had spent so many days and nights in the ancestral hall, how could he not remember the scene inside?

This white fog must be different from the outside, and it should be to cover something.

Shen Shuyi's heart condensed slightly, and he walked in cautiously, the intensity of the fog, stretched out the tips of his fingers, it had already become blurred, even if there was a person walking in front of him, if the footsteps were very light, I was afraid that he would not be able to see it until he was about to collide.

There is such a big difference between here and the Shen family and outside, saying that there is no problem inside, I am afraid that no one will believe it, and he feels that it is the right direction to come to the ancestral hall to find the answer, but the scene in this courtyard is really weird, and he can't help but be more careful.

The courtyard of the ancestral hall can be said to be larger than the rest of his house, but this is only a dozen steps away, Shen Shuyi only walked a few steps, and heard a strange sound of "ho ho" in his ears, which was described as the wheezing sound of an old man who had been running for a long time, and the more he moved forward, the clearer the sound became, and it was particularly terrifying in a white vision that was almost blind.

Shen Shuyi's bad premonition was extremely heavy, he reached into the cloth bag on his shoulder and took out a piece of rune paper and brush, soaked the tip of his nose with saliva, and then reached into his waist bag and rolled through the cinnabar, raising his hand to put a few strokes on the rune paper It was a ghost drawing.

He put the pen away again, put the talisman on his cuff, and continued to walk towards the entrance of the ancestral hall.

The closer it gets, the clearer the strange sound becomes, and the tighter Shen Shuyi's heart becomes, and slowly when he is about to enter his sight, the voice suddenly disappears.

Shen Shuyi was shocked, pinched the talisman between his two fingers and crossed his chest, approaching cautiously as if he was facing a great enemy, until he could see the gate of the ancestral hall, but found that there was nothing in front of the door.

Did he hear it wrong? Of course not, he leaned his back against the door, staring warily at the thick fog in front of him.

After a long silence, little by little subtle changes piled up before they appeared, Shen Shuyi turned his eyes to both sides, and suddenly found that the fog in front of him was obviously much darker, looking at the shape, it was about the same height as a person.

The black shadow approached little by little, with a trace of fishy rotten gas, and his heart became colder and colder, this thing was obviously not a living thing.

By the time he could see clearly, there were only two words left in his mind, and it was over.

A strange black and dry face was revealed in the white mist, with a very large mouth, and the sound of "ho ho" came from its mouth, but the first thing Shen Shuyi noticed was its eyes, not the dead fish eyes of ordinary zongzi, this monster seemed to have given birth to a little consciousness, its eyes would turn slightly, and the whites of its eyes were scarlet.

Bloody corpses!

He never thought that he would have the opportunity to meet a real one in this life, and usually there is only one end to this kind of thing, death.

Revolt? It doesn't make sense. He had already put down the talisman, even if he had a magic weapon in his hand, there was no hope, of course just one talisman was not enough to see, and even a fight could be avoided.

Is this the end of the mirror? He had already started a rehearsal in his mind, and within a few seconds, the immortal would appear here, kill the bloody corpse and take him away, and the next thing would be to be locked up in the mirror for no time.

Despair is inevitable, if it is like the black-haired zongzi in the broken temple, he must give it a fight, and the one in front of him, looking at the whole of China, there are few people who dare to provoke, right?
