Chapter 21: Burial
"Big brother...... Thank you!" the little girl finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the mountain ghost leave. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, but she couldn't hold back her tears.
Although she is young, she also knows that it is not the time to relax, everything is not over yet, and if she cries, it will attract more mountain ghosts.
"Why don't you go home?" asked Ning Chen.
"Mom was killed by a monster...... Daddy is fighting monsters...... I don't know where I'm going...... Our family is not here, far away......" the little girl has begun to speak incoherently.
Ning Chen sighed softly, then picked up the little girl and walked towards his residence.
Although the mountain ghosts are terrifying, their intelligence is really low, and Ning Chen holds the one-eyed eye of this mountain ghost king as if he has entered a no-man's land.
Ning Chen flew all the way to the wall, took the little girl to his residence, and then placed her properly. Immediately after, Ning Chen did not go out, but leaned down and groped around.
He was knocking on the ground, as if he was looking for something, although the little girl felt a heavy pain in her heart, she couldn't help but be curious when she saw Ning Chen's move, and the tears in her eyes no longer swirled, and she only watched Ning Chen's movements.
Ning Chen struck a brick, and the sound of this brick being struck was slightly different from other bricks, but the difference was subtle, and it could only be heard by someone with ulterior motives or extremely sharp ears.
"There's a trap here, if a mountain ghost breaks in, you pull this trap, and then there will be a secret passage, and if you get in, the mountain ghost won't be able to catch you, and when it's all over, you can escape. Ning Chen said.
The mountain ghost is too big to break into the house, and if you want to hurt the people in the house, you either lift the roof or grab it with your hands.
Mountain ghosts naturally have the ability to lift the roof, but their intelligence does not allow them to do so.
So Ning Chen's arrangement is already extremely safe for the little girl.
"Big brother...... Where are you going?" the little girl couldn't help but ask when she heard Ning Chen's words as if she was leaving.
"There are still a lot of mountain ghosts out there, and I have something to do. Ning Chen said slowly, "Don't worry, as long as you listen to me, you will be absolutely safe." ”
Even if the mountain ghost suddenly opens up and learns to tear down the roof, it can't learn to dig the basement, right?
Hiding in the basement, the little girl is still completely safe.
"I ...... Big brother, can you not go out......" The little girl's body was shaking.
"There are still people outside waiting to help, I have to get out. Ning Chen lied.
He's not going to help anyone, because it's pointless.
"Will you ever come back?" asked the little girl.
"Not anymore. Ning Chen said, "As soon as the matter is over, you will go to your father, and before that, you will hide here, it is absolutely safe here." ”
"Hmm......" The little girl nodded, her eyes red again.
Looking at her face, Ning Chen couldn't help but sigh.
"The god of flowers blesses you. With that, he left with a sense of powerlessness.
But what else could he do, he couldn't do anything.
Walking out of the room, Ning Chen tried his best not to think about what happened before, and he whispered to himself: "Brother Chen's body is still hanging on the city, I must take his body back......"
After that, he flew all the way up the wall and ran to the city gate.
Immediately after, his luck was in his body, and then he condensed on his feet, using the set of methods taught to him by Yun Shaochen, slowly rose into the air, and rose above the city gate, and then he stopped his luck.
This set of luck spells used up almost half of the true qi circulating around him, but it was no wonder that all his true qi was now in his dantian, and the true qi in his body was just a drop in the ocean, and it would be exhausted with a little use of a small spell.
He didn't think much of it, and directly began to pull the rope that hung the corpse.
After pulling the body up, Ning Chen could take a good look at what Chen Mou looked like when he died.
Chen Mou was very comfortable when he died, and he didn't look like he was resisting. But the more he did this, the more angry Ning Chen became.
Why is he so willing? Does he not care for his life in the slightest?
Ning Chen stretched out his hand and gently pressed Chen Mou's chest, and in an instant, Chen Mou's body collapsed and shattered into ashes.
Chen Mou has been dead for so long, the corpse should have been moldy and smelly a long time ago, but after he was pulled up, there was no smell at all, and even said that he was still as bright as ever, Ning Chen knew that there must be something wrong with it.
"Sure enough......" Ning Chen gritted his teeth, Gan Yue added medicine to this corpse, although the corpse would not rot, as long as he pressed his chest hard, it would immediately shatter into powder.
If you don't press your chest quickly, the corpse will slowly erode away and disappear into invisibility.
The outside of the corpse was still very full, but it was just an empty shell, and the inside was already full of powder.
Ning Chen collected the powder, put it into a package, and then threw the mountain ghost king's one-eyed into the city, turned around and fled from Chaohua City.
The top priority is not to watch the mountain ghosts slaughter, he has to bury Chen Mou first. After that, if he had time, he would be interested in going to the city to watch the Void Dragon Show.
Although the Void Dragon has no sanity, it is not comparable to the kind of mountain ghosts. If he sees his old enemy Gan Yue, I'm afraid he will put down the mountain ghost feast at hand and attack Gan Yue instead.
Ning Chen wasn't sure if Zhao Luomu would be able to defend against the Void Dragon, if not, it would be interesting.
He took the ashes to a hillside that was covered with a flower, the dandelion.
Dandelion is Chen Mou's favorite flower when drinking Ningyin, because dandelion symbolizes freedom. Every year at the Flower God Festival, Chen Mou would offer a dandelion to the God of Flowers, but the blooming dandelion would not stop, it would always stay on the float for a while, and then drift away.
A float is a cart that has been spelled on it, and even a broken flower can grow on it. The dandelion rested on it for a while, and then left.
Probably because the blessing of the dandelion never came to Chen Mou, and probably because the god of flowers actually did not protect Chaohua City.
Chen Mou, who deliberately pursued freedom, never pursued freedom, and even his family died here.
"Brother Chen, you are really stupid. Ning Chen sprinkled Chen Mou's ashes, "How can you get freedom if you don't fight, how can you get freedom......
After a while, the ashes were scattered on each one
On the dandelions. The ceremony seemed to be completed, but Ning Chen still stayed here for a long time, and his mind kept tumbling over the last time he came to this dandelion bush.
Chen Mou brought him here that time, and Chen Mou brought a pot of wine to Ning Yin to practice.
He drank and spilled, so that the whole dandelion bush was full of wine.
"Roar-" The Void Dragon's roar rang out, interrupting Ning Chen's thoughts.
