Chapter 449: After Dusk

The cloud tombs are scattered all over the world.

In the next few days, a sea of clouds shrouded the world.

Clouds collide endlessly, winds are noisy day and night, rain and snow are constantly raging, everything is like a precursor to the end of the world, and when people are panicking, countless golden beams of light suddenly cut through the clouds, falling from the sky, shuttling between the holes in the sea of clouds, cutting the wind and rain and snow together.

The golden light is shining, as if there is a Buddha sitting on top of the clouds.

The people of the real country remembered this scene and still passed it on many years later.

January.

The catastrophe has passed, the new snow is beginning to fall, and the sky is clear.

In the royal city, the Daomen resumed their schoolwork, and the disciples wearing the robes of the Daomen came and went, which made the courtyard that had been cold for a long time regain some vitality.

Lin Shouxi was wearing the white shirt of an inner disciple and was also mixed in.

"You are the disciple of the master himself?"

Someone poked Lin Shouxi's back.

Lin Shouxi looked back and saw a girl in a white dress with a ponytail looking him up and down.

"Yes."

"I'm a senior sister who is a year older than you, and my name is Tao Susu."

"Hello senior sister, I don't know ...... senior sister looking for me"

Lin Shouxi originally thought that this was another drama by the senior sister to make things difficult for the younger generations, but who knew that this little girl named Tao Susu held out a stack of beautifully painted papers in her hand, she handed one to Lin Shouxi, and asked, "Are you interested in joining our sect?" ”

"Sect?"

Lin Shouxi is no stranger to this.

A hundred years ago, there were countless sects of different faiths such as the Great Burning Sect, the Original Face Sect, the Dragon Temple, and the Holy Tree Temple, and there were even many people who could openly believe in the Lord of the Gray Tomb and hold ceremonies on the street to welcome the arrival of darkness.

After a hundred years of catastrophe and turmoil, many ancient sects in the real country have been wiped out, but although the old religion has fallen, there are always new sects born.

What Tao Susu recommended to Lin Shouxi was the emerging gods.

Lin Shouxi took the paper she handed over.

"Sun Salutation?" Lin Shouxi was stunned.

"Well, I am a member of the Sun Worship Sect, and our Sun Worship Sect is the most prosperous sect in the True Kingdom in recent days, and countless people have seen the divine revelation of the Sun God, and the Sun God really exists." Tao Susu courteously enveloped him.

"I ......"

"Are you afraid that this is a cult? Don't worry, our Sun Worship Sect has been approved by the Daomen, so I dare to come out and publicize it openly. ”

At present, in the true country, the establishment of any new sect must first pass the examination and approval of the Daomen, and confirm that it is not a cruel and bloody cult, and only a sect that has been recognized by the Daomen can openly propagate the doctrine and win over the followers.

"The jade candle shines forever, the golden crow marches to the firmament, the three lights are like an elephant, the six dragons are in the sky, the ode to my dawn sparrow, and the beauty of the thousand autumns is ......"

Lin Shouxi read the words of the iron and silver hooks on the paper, and his mind was complicated for a while.

"The sun is hanging high day by day, the light is eternal, why bother to worship, with this kung fu, it is better to cultivate the Tao." Lin Shouxi shook his head, wanting to refuse.

Tao Susu refused to give up, and whispered: "Our sect is very idle, just participate in prayer once a month, and give out peach shortbread......"

Pong –

The bell of the gate rang brightly.

The disciples who had been talking to each other were immediately silenced.

Tao Susu stuffed the paper and the emblem of the Sun Salutation Sect into Lin Shouxi's arms, turned around and ran.

Lin Shouxi took them and stood in place, a little wooden.

He looked at the solemn sun god drawn on the paper, shook his head slightly, and said, "It doesn't look like it at all." ”

But he didn't throw them away, and pinned the medal with the ancient sun totem to his chest.

In the past ten days, the snow-capped mountains have been turbulent, the wind and clouds are impermanent, the Daomen has stopped schoolwork, today everything is back to normal, the disciples are full of energy, and when they recite the scriptures in the morning class, the chanting sound gathers into a strong wave of qi, full of energy.

After morning class.

The clear sky was again filled with pleasant snow.

The disciples were about to return to church.

In the distance, suddenly a snow shadow floated from the elegant palace, the snow shadow was faint like light smoke, the sky was far and lonely, and when she floated here, the whole world was silent.

"The disciple has seen the master."

The disciples of the Dao Sect said in unison.

The person who came was the contemporary master of the Daomen, the first fairy of the real country today, Chu Yingchan.

Chu Yingchan's white dress is better than snow, her temperament is extremely quiet, she floated into here, looked around at her disciple with clear eyes, smiled quietly, and said: "Don't be nervous, you are all the best cultivation seeds in the true country, and you are the pillars of the future of the true country, I came today just to see you." ”

"Thank you for your love."

The disciples were flattered that they could get the attention of Fairy Chu.

Chu Yingchan slowly walked through the crowd.

The fairy posture was slender, the fragrant wind was swirling, and the disciples hung their heads one after another, and even their breathing was sluggish for a few minutes.

Chu Yingchan suddenly stopped.

"Who are you? Why in my door? Chu Yingchan asked.

"Sect Master, this is the apprentice you personally accepted, have you forgotten?" The maid next to her reminded in a whisper.

Chu Yingchan showed a sudden look at this time, and said softly: "He was seriously injured that day, and his face was difficult to distinguish, but now that the injury has healed, he is much more beautiful and beautiful, and he was clumsy for a while, and he didn't recognize it." ”

"Hmm...... Come out with me. ”

Chu Yingchan's jade sleeves flicked slightly, turned around indifferently, and led him through the crowd to everyone.

Lin Shouxi didn't know what she was going to do, but she had a sense of foreboding.

"You're a new disciple, so let's introduce yourself." Chu Yingchan said softly.

“?”

Lin Shouxi was stunned: "Introduction...... Myself? ”

"Well, introduce yourself, tell us about your name, your origins, your preferences...... Well, anything, in short, let everyone get to know you soon. Chu Yingchan said calmly.

Lin Shouxi looked at Chu Yingchan's smiling eyes, and wanted to do something at this moment, to do something that would make the entire real kingdom remember him, but Chu Yingchan's soft smile was so impeccable, Lin Shouxi finally gave in, raised his head slightly embarrassed, waved his hand at everyone, and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Lin Shouxi......"

This man, who personally killed the Lord of the Gray Tomb and the Lord of the Cloud Tomb, stumbled to speak at this time, like a shy teenager.

Lin Shouxi finally finished introducing himself, but Chu Yingchan was picky.

"What's on your chest?" She asked.

Lin Shouxi looked at the silver emblem of the sun god on his chest, and he didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"The robes of the Daomen should not be messed with accessories, let alone the emblems of other sects, you are like this, you have exceeded the rules." Chu Yingchan said coldly.

"Disciple doesn't know ......" Lin Shouxi sighed and said, "This is what Senior Sister Tao Susu gave me." ”

Tao Susu immediately panicked and explained, "I'...... I didn't, and I didn't let him wear ...... now."

Chu Yingchan didn't say much, and ordered Lin Shouxi to spread his palms, and scolded him with a wooden ruler, and his palms were red.

After Fairy Chu left, Tao Susu came to apologize to him very guiltily.

"I'm sorry, it's my sister who didn't make it clear to you......"

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Shouxi rubbed his reddish palms, smiled, and asked, "When will this Sunday worship church hold prayers?" ”

"Today." Tao Susu hurriedly said, "It's sunset." ”

Lin Shouxi finished an ordinary day as a disciple of the Daomen.

Evening.

He followed the road and went to this so-called Sun Worship Religion.

The building of the Sun Worship Church is newly built, regular and magnificent, the top of the attic hangs a large lamp that reflects the sun, the lamp is painted with a golden crow, it is blazing with the sun, it is dim with the sun, it is luxurious and bright.

When Lin Shouxi arrived, there were already many people in the building.

He thought he would meet something here, but this so-called Sun Worship Sect is really a sect of the Eight Classics, the leader of the sect led everyone to recite the "Shenyang Sutra", after reading, the leader told everyone the story of the sun god opening up the world and saving the common people, and people expressed their gratitude to this sun god devoutly.

After that, the sect leader distributed peach shortbread to everyone.

Lin Shouxi received a copy.

"How? Isn't the sun god great? Tao Susu jumped up to him, her eyes bright.

"These stories...... I always think it's a bit exaggerated. ”

"Exaggerated? The sun gives birth to all things, and I think that the language of the real country is too scarce to truly convey the greatness of the sun god. ”

"Maybe."

Tao Susu saw that he was a little perfunctory, and she didn't say anything more, she believed that after a long time, this junior brother would always be infected by the sun god.

Lin Shouxi glanced at the sky.

The twilight is low, and the twilight is dying.

Lin Shouxi had an appointment with someone and immediately quickened his pace.

Xiao He stood prettyly under a fluttering wine flag, her long hair bearing the slight light of the sunset, exuding a gentle glow, she saw Lin Shouxi coming from the street, and greeted him with a light smile.

"It's not too late." Xiao He said.

"Your Majesty invited me, how dare I be late?" Lin Shouxi replied.

"It's kind of acquaintance."

Xiao He crossed his arms around his chest, bowed his head slightly, and said, "You came empty-handed?" ”

Lin Shouxi stretched out his hand hidden behind him, and in his hand, he was carrying a delicate wooden box.

He handed it over.

Xiao He took it, opened it, and the fragrance came to his nose.

"This is the peach shortbread I specially prepared for Xiao He." Lin Shouxi has a heartbeat.

Xiao He looked at the peach shortbread, and then at Lin Shouxi's clumsy hand, although he didn't believe it, he still took it, tasted it, and recognized its taste.

The two held hands and walked into the restaurant behind them.

"Why are you so bored? I still want to go to Daomen to be a disciple, do you think I didn't have enough of the good life in Chumen? Xiao He asked.

"These days Japan just want to rest, and leisure is also leisure, so ......"

"Shut up, don't think I don't know your little thoughts, Sister Chu is really, she was born so pure and beautiful, she is willing to play such a drama with you."

Xiao He held her cheeks and interrupted him angrily, her slender jade fingers tapped the menu, and said, "You come and order, if there is something that does not go with Miss Ben's heart, you are the only one who asks." ”

"Yes, my Majesty the Empress."

Lin Shouxi took the list with a smile and nodded the same.

The dishes were served quickly.

In the smoke and mist, Xiao He looked at the familiar delicacies on the table, her cheeks were moistened by the mist, she pursed her thin lips, still dissatisfied, and asked murderously: "Why is there no Miss Ben's favorite white chopped brocade feather chicken?" Don't you remember? ”

"The brocade feather chicken became extinct a hundred years ago." Lin Shouxi explained.

"Oh."

Xiao He suddenly said quietly: "The sword of the Zhu clan is really full of crimes." ”

The Sword of the Clan has been sealed by them for the time being, but they have not yet found a way to destroy it.

"yes."

Lin Shouxi nodded, and said with a smile: "But how do I remember that Xiao He's favorite food is not the white chopping brocade feather chicken?" ”

"What's that......"

Xiao He's words were general, her thin lips were slightly stiff, thinking about some of the past, a trace of awe-inspiring murderous intent flashed in her eyes, and her tender feet in light purple socks kicked Lin Shouxi under the table, and said, "No matter how much you talk, you don't want to drink a mouthful of soup today." ”

Satiated.

The white mist wafting on the dining table was getting thinner.

Xiao He held his chin with both hands, quietly looking at the watery night outside the window, looking like a well-fed cat.

She straightened her slender legs, and her floppy little feet were resting on Lin Shouxi's legs.

Lin Shouxi enjoyed the night with her.

"I ...... Somewhat sleepy. Xiao He said.

Lin Shouxi paid the money and took Xiao He back to the building to rest.

When walking into the empty alley, Lin Shouxi grabbed her slender waist, Xiao He snorted lightly, and did not resist, but gently leaned on his body.

All the way back to Xiao He's residence.

Lin Shouxi wanted to go in.

Xiao He stopped him outside.

"Not yet."

Xiao He shook his head and said with a serious face.

"Why?"

"The outside said okay, I have to date for seven days first, and this is the fourth day."

Xiao Hefen pursed her lips, smiled and waved her hand to him, and before parting, she hooked her fingers at Lin Shouxi provocatively, and said, "If you don't want to, you can also try to be tougher, it's just ...... You do it at your own risk. ”

What can be the consequences?

Lin Shouxi didn't say a word, and pushed the door directly to enter.

Xiao He didn't obey, she pressed the door from the inside, wrestling with Lin Shouxi.

When the two were fighting, a woman's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Lin Shouxi, why are you here?"

Lin Shouxi turned back at the sound, but his brows were furrowed.

"Tao Susu? What are you looking for me for? He asked.

"It was the master who ordered me to look for someone." Tao Susu replied.

"Master?"

"Well, don't you know yet? Today, when the maid helped you clean up the room, she took out a few books of the heart of the Hehuan Sect from your bookcase, such a forbidden book, it is absolutely impossible to hide it privately, because you are a disciple appointed by the master, so the maid directly reported this matter to the master, and the master was also very angry after hearing it, saying that he would punish you personally...... She's waiting for you. ”

Tao Susu said softly, she couldn't help but show a worried face, and she asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother Lin, are you really practicing the exercises of the Hehuan Sect in private?" ”

Lin Shouxi looked frank and open, and he said, "I'll go and explain to Shizun in person." ”

……

"The disciple has seen the master."

Daomen, in front of his door, he saw Chu Yingchan who was waiting quietly.

Traveling with Chu Yingchan, there were also several maids and deacons of the Daomen.

Many disciples also knew about Lin Shouxi's mistakes.

As soon as he joined the Daomen, he dared to provoke Fairy Chu twice in a row, this son really didn't miss kindness, and he didn't hesitate to take the chance, how could the Daomen tolerate him? Presumably, after tonight, he should be expelled from the Dao.

"Do you know what's wrong?"

Chu Yingchan stood under the moon, her snow skirt was bright, and her questioning voice was like ice and snow drifting, chilling her heart.

"The disciple doesn't know what's wrong." Lin Shouxi replied.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was angry.

The fairy came to educate in person, even if it is an evil one, he should turn back, and this son still dies without repentance?

"That's for the teacher to let you know."

Chu Yingchan took the ring ruler from the maid and carried him into the room.

The door was closed.

The lights in the room are turned off.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was another three days.

The scourge has passed.

People still feel a little uncomfortable when they look at the wood of the world without the cloud tomb to cover it, and they always feel that there will be gods walking down the peak and punishing the world.

It's twilight.

Lin Shouxi and Xiao He completed their last date.

"Why are you still being expelled?" Xiao He asked with a smile.

"I make trouble every day, and I have provoked Chu Chu to come to punish me several times, and if I don't expel him again, I will really provoke the anger of the public." Lin Shouxi replied.

Besides, after tomorrow, he will leave the real kingdom and return to the sacred mountain.

"Punishment in person...... Hmph, you guys have a lot of tricks. Xiao He sneered.

"Do you want to go back?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"What's the hurry?"

Xiao He stretched her petite body lazily, she looked at the low-hanging orange sky, and said, "It's still early, come and take a walk with me." ”

"Okay."

Lin Shouxi responded.

In the real country shrouded in the sunset, they held hands and slowly walked through the spacious streets where the scale beasts could run, and the towering castle towers were shadowed by the sunset, looking particularly heavy, and the thousand mountains and twilight snow stood behind them, like a long scroll.

When she walked through the streets selling handicrafts, Xiao He slowed down, she couldn't put down those delicate and beautiful things, looking left and right, until the sunset, and she hadn't walked out of this street.

"Xiao He is like shopping for the first time." Lin Shouxi quipped.

"You know what? The emperor's private visits, who are accustomed to seeing rare treasures, are all like this. Xiao He said confidently.

She stuffed the purchased jewelry and gadgets into Lin Shouxi's hands and asked him to keep them for him.

I walked along the main city of the king for a long time.

The lights are on.

Xiao He wanted to go back, but when she saw the distant snow-white mountain, she felt a trace of inexplicable nostalgia.

"I'd like to go to the Necromantic Snowfield." Xiao He said.

Half an hour later, they arrived in the Necromantic Snowfield.

The darkness of the dead spirit is no more, and the silver moonlight is sprinkled from the nine skies, illuminating the place white.

The Necromantic Snow Field is still barren.

In the center of the snowfield, the corpse of the Giant King still stands, casting a shadow like a sundial needle.

Lin Shouxi and Xiao He walked under the corpse together.

"May you sleep in peace."

The two put their hands together and said together.

Then.

The corpse of the Giant King seemed to hear their wishes.

Its hollow eye sockets were filled with moonlight, and its massive body began to tilt slowly.

It fell to the earth.

Lin Shouxi and Xiao He moved out of the way.

The corpse of the giant king, who had stood for a hundred years, lost its last obsession and smashed to the earth, the breath that swirled in his abdomen turned into wind and clouds, his voice became rumbling thunder, his mutilated eyes entangled in the sky, like the sun and moon passing by chance, his long dried blood veins stretched far away, turned into a runoff carrying snow water, his dry skin melted inch by inch, turned into soft earth, and green grass broke through the soil, decorating the wasteland with green.

The grass spreads in the necromantic snow and is full of life.

The body of the Giant King disappeared completely.

He was one of the guardians of the True Kingdom, he was killed in battle with the Lord of the Grey Tomb, and after his death, he left all of himself here.

On the necromantic snowfield, the night breeze blows the grass, the water gurgles, and the moonlight is more beautiful.

Xiao He took off her small shoes and jumped on the grass with only her socks, and the wind blew the corners of her skirt away.

She turned around, her hands wrenched behind her back, and the light smile on her lips was seductive.

The moonlight is in the shadows, and the fragrance is floating in the wind.

"Here it is." She said.
