Chapter 15: The Deepest Fear in Her Heart
There was smoke all around, and there was no way to go.
"Shi and Ning, Shi and Ning, Shi and Ning ......"
Who was calling her one after another?
The voice was like a magic sound, making Shi Youning hesitate in his heart. For a long time, she clenched the flowing gold and walked towards the source of the sound step by step.
The dense fog separates in layers, and the scene gradually becomes clearer.
The low and gloomy canopy, the sparse dying flowers and trees, and the thick and smelly deep pool. Three men came into view, one in front and two in the back holding a girl, and they placed her on the edge of the pool.
The girl woke up faintly, her clear eyes were full of fear and defense, she didn't dare to look up, she only asked cautiously: "Third grandfather, is this ...... Where is this?"
"I've learned the spell you taught me yesterday, I'm ...... I'll be obedient. She was so frightened that she no longer dared to disobey their orders.
Chang Lin nodded.
His face was serious, and he looked at Shi Youning with scrutinizing eyes for a long time, and when he looked at her, she shrank tighter as if she was more afraid, so he raised his hand slightly.
Another man came from outside, carefully holding a brocade box in his hand.
"Youning, do you know why we're forcing you to learn those things?" Chang Lin asked.
"I don't know. Shi Youning replied in a low voice.
"Because this is the foundation of our Shi family's survival for more than 2,000 years, I will pass on the burden to you now, and you will guard the Shi family in place of us old guys, okay?" Chang Lin squatted down, as if discussing with her, but his tone was unquestionable.
Shi Youning has a sense of deception.
But she didn't dare to refuse directly, and said hesitantly: "I...... I'm still young. ”
"You're twenty years old, not too young. When your sister took over the burden, she was only eight years old. Chang Lin felt a little regretful, "If she hadn't died suddenly, all this would not have happened to you." ”
Shi Youning pursed his lips.
When she came here, she realized that she had a twin sister, who had just been born and had been subjected to these inhuman tortures at a young age, and died early before she was twenty years old.
Shi Youning felt sorry for this sister who had never met, so he hated these so-called clan elders even more, and also hated their parents.
"Yes...... Can...... But I'm stupid, I don't know anything. Third grandfather, I, you let me learn more. It made her more and more uncomfortable, and her heart pounded as if it were about to burst out of her throat.
Shi Youning stumbled and found an excuse, but Chang Lin was already impatient.
Two men stepped forward and pressed her.
"Third grandfather, this ...... What is this for?" Shi Youning was even more afraid, and his body trembled like chaff.
Chang Lin didn't know when he had an extra dagger in his hand.
"This dagger is called flowing gold, and it will drink your blood today, and it will recognize you as Lord. After confessing the Lord, it will change the shape of various objects according to your mind, and it is a rare treasure. Chang Lin stroked Liujin and whispered.
"I ...... I don't really like it. ”
Shi Youning endured the fear in his heart and refused quietly.
"You have to like it. ”
Chang Lin didn't want to delay any longer, he forced her eyes to widen, and coldly pressed the dagger close to her clear eyes.
"Third grandfather, what are you...... Ah......h
Chang Lin's wrist turned slightly, and his black and white eyes were accompanied by red slurry, which he gently picked out from his eye sockets.
Shi Youning screamed in shock.
She struggled desperately, "Third grandfather, let me go, I beg you, I kowtow to you, please." Help, come on, help, help me......"
Who's going to save me?
"No one will save you, and you don't need anyone else to save you. You are the daughter of the Shi family, this is your life. Chang Lin acted quickly without hesitation.
He said cold and ruthless words as he quickly picked off her other eyeball.
But that's not hell.
Shi Youning stood in the distance, watching this scene numbly.
This was the deepest fear in her heart, and she was crushed in a nightmare from countless midnight dreams.
Maybe I'm used to it.
Although it is still painful, at least it can be done with a cold eyebrow.
It seems that she has not only grown older but not brainy over the years.
She silently watched as a girl, Shi Youning was forced to take on the pair of demon eyes, but due to lack of skill, the skin was peeled off from her body inch by inch, and the hair belonging to the beast rose from the roots, and the half-human, half-beast girl was pressed into the smelly pool, and tasted the pain of separation and reshaping of flesh and blood over and over again.
Suddenly, someone covered her eyes.
Shi Youning was slightly stunned.
Chu Xiu appeared behind her out of thin air and whispered in her ear: "Shi Youning, it's time to wake up." ”
"I'm still waiting for you to save him. ”
Is it too late?
It's over!
Shi Youning's eyes lit up and he opened his eyes suddenly.
The scenery in front of you is still the same as before, and it is still a cold and wide northern village. She took Chu Xiu's hand and was maintaining a running motion.
The illusion just now was not a formation condensation, but someone took her spirit.
If she really went out to save the young phantom, she would really indulge in it, become one with it, and suffer the pain of gouging out her eyes and body over and over again, and never come out.
It seems that the souls of those victims were detained in this way, but what they saw and dreamed was the joy of their hearts, so that everyone had a smile on their faces.
But what about the heart?
I would rather not think about it, and the most important thing at the moment is that the time has passed.
The screams that I had before should have been just to make her panic and take the opportunity to take her spirit. Thinking about it at this time, Shi Guo should have fallen into the illusion, and I just hope that he will not be entangled too much in the illusion.
The gold opened the way ahead, and they easily found the time.
A thin, thin girl, draped in a long garment, was dragging him home with difficulty.
The three men next to him were all staring at each other with fear on their faces.
Shi Youning hurriedly stepped forward and found that they were no longer breathing, and there was no trace of the heart in their chests.
"The spirit is gone. "Reserve and repair in a timely manner.
"You ......" Shi Youning turned around and walked towards Shi Guo, only to find that the girl who was dragging him looked nervous and frightened, but her hands were tightly holding a wooden stick, waving it in front of Shi Guo.
"You, don't come here. She swallowed and trembled.
Shi Youning waved her away with just one finger.
The girl fell to the ground, and the more she got up, she found that she could neither move nor speak.
Shi Youning helped him up, and when he reached out, he found that he had no breath at this time, but fortunately, his heart was still alive.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
"Help me. Shi Youning said to Chu Xiu.
Fang is Chu Xiu who awakens her divine soul from the illusion, he is a spirit body, and there should be a way to take her into the past spiritual illusion.
"I'm going to save him. ”
Chu Xiu hurriedly said, "I'll bring him back, you believe me." ”
