Chapter 65: The Earth Bonder
The young woman had realized that she was different from before, but she didn't want to believe it.
"My father-in-law is dead, and I'm dead, so why am I still like this, I can still eat. ”
"You've been staying here, day after day, waiting for some opportunity to make you a spirit. Because you have become a spirit body, you have survived so long. It's also different from ordinary ghosts, you can eat and sleep, and it's no different from ordinary people.
You eat, but you shouldn't feel hungry."
When the young woman heard Qingqing's words, she burst into tears. In fact, after she woke up, it was not that she was unaware of her changes. It's just that she has been deceiving herself and is willing to believe that she is still alive. creates an illusion for herself, she is still the ordinary woman who waits for her husband's return every day.
"Why hasn't my father-in-law come back, and where has he gone?"
The young woman cried.
"There's no point in asking him where he's been now. Maybe your husband has been reincarnated and become another person, existing in this world. ”
Qingqing persuaded the young woman.
"It turns out that people can really be reincarnated. So what am I now?"
Just now the young woman said that she couldn't go too far from the house, and Qingqing remembered that she had read it in a book, the existence of a kind of earth-binding spirit.
"You've been here waiting for your husband to return, and your obsession before death has made you a groundbinder. That's why you're stuck here, you can't get out. ”
The young woman kept crying, Qingqing didn't speak anymore, and looked at her silently.
Crying, crying, the young woman's cry gradually became smaller, she sobbed and said to Qingqing:
"I remembered that since Xianggong left, I have no way to make money as a woman, and it is not easy to live in the mountains. I didn't dare to go out to find work, and I couldn't go home, so I lived on the rice and money left by my father-in-law.
Later, the family had no money and food, so I had to go all over the mountains to find food, hungry and full every day. I don't know which day I was hungry, I couldn't find food anywhere, and my mind was dizzy. I knew I couldn't hold it anymore.
I dug a hole in the back of the house and prepared to use it as a grave for myself, so that my husband could see me when he returned.
Towards the end of the digging, I saw some bones that looked like a bird. But the skeleton is huge, and I've never seen a bird that big.
I thought about it at the time, to be able to have such a strange bird buried with me, and to have a companion after death. I was so tired that I couldn't walk anymore, so I crawled to my room and got a quilt, lay quietly next to the bones, and fainted.
When I woke up again, I stood at the door of the house, waiting as usual. The previous scene was deliberately forgotten from my mind. I created an illusion for myself that I was still the same ordinary woman waiting for my husband to return.
In the evening, I would go back to my room and sleep, and the next morning I would stand in the doorway again, occasionally looking for something to eat. Life went on like this, day by day, exactly like I used to.
Later I noticed that there was something different about it. There are always animals that are stuck in one place, unconscious. I tried to find out why they died, but I didn't find anything. I felt as if they were trapped in something, and they didn't feel the outside world. ”
When the young woman said this, she didn't know what was in her mind, but suddenly stopped, and did not continue to speak for a long time.
Qingqing came to the backyard of the house, the yard was overgrown with weeds one person high, and there was indeed a quilt under the weeds.
Qingqing cast a spell to get the weeds out, revealing the quilt inside.
She stepped forward and reached out to lift the quilt, and sure enough, the body of the young woman was underneath. The young woman's appearance was the same as her spirit, and her face was lifelike.
The body is no different from a living person, but it is a little thin. Time seemed to stand still forever in the moment before she died. The young woman's face was serene and quiet, and Qingqing carried her body up.
Underneath the corpse was a huge skeleton. Every bone is crystal clear, like white jade. The skeleton on the body is large, but the legs are very slender, and it should not be a land animal. The appearance is indeed the appearance of a bird, as the young woman said.
Judging from the skeleton, this bird should have been taller than a person in its lifetime.
Maybe clues can be found here. Qingqing slowly entered the hole, carefully bypassing the bones to avoid stepping on them.
The surface of the bones did not look abnormal except for the appearance of jade, and there were no mana fluctuations.
Could it be that I guessed wrong, this corpse is actually not the key. Qingqing squatted down suspiciously, carefully looking for other clues, and accidentally, her hand touched the head of the corpse.
The bones in front of him suddenly disappeared, and Qingqing entered an illusion again. This illusion is different from the beautiful illusion just now, it is very dim inside, and the surrounding environment can barely be seen clearly.
There are black mist all around, and when the mist touches the body, it makes people feel slimy, and unconsciously makes people feel disgusting and repulsive. The sky seemed to be shrouded in something, forming a circular space that looked blood-red.
Qingqing knew that all this was an illusion, but the smell of blood in the air had been stimulating her sense of smell and making her mind a little confused.
In front of Qingqing was a bird with blue feathers all over her body, and its tail was bright fiery red, which looked very beautiful. Its wings were outstretched, and underneath it was a girl in her twenties.
The girl crouched there with her head bowed.
"I don't want to go, I don't want to go! I want to be here with you, even if I die, I will be with you, I don't want you to sacrifice for me. ”
The blue bird gently stroked the girl's hair.
"We've been together since you were a kid, from the age of two or three to now, it's been hundreds of years. You're my best friend, and like my child, how would I be willing to let you die here.
This is the Devouring God Ding, and the formation inside kills gods and destroys immortals. All the gods and immortals who enter it, the mana will be devoured until the divine power disappears, and after becoming an ordinary person, they will be devoured by Ding, and we really have no other way to get out. ”
"Is there really no way to crack this formation?"
"Nope. This devouring god tripod is the demon tripod that the demon clan specially used to deal with the god clan during the original god and demon war, and I don't know how many god clans were devoured. Later, it was a god who blew himself up and fought for the disciples who were trapped together.
Even so, these disciples suffered heavy casualties, and only a few escaped from the Dingzhong. Since then, the people in the God Realm have known about the existence of this God Devouring Ding, and they have also understood why the gods disappeared without a trace before.
The Heavenly Demon War consumed a lot of vitality in the Xiuzhen Realm, and there was no choice but to stop the war between the two realms. In order to show sincerity, the demons sacrificed the Devouring God Ding, and the gods sent people to secretly hide in unknown places. The formations in it are also listed as taboos in the two realms, and disciples are not allowed to practice them. I also learned by chance from a book that there is such a Dinghe formation. ”
