The fluctuations coming from the box made Lu Shen's face more and more solemn.

Because he could clearly feel that it was supposed to be alive.

Hundreds of boxes were placed together, beating at the same frequency, and fluctuating more and more strongly, which made Lu Shen a little overwhelmed.

There is no breathing, only beating, and as time passes, this beating becomes stronger and stronger, and even in the end, you can perceive that this beating is exactly the same as the frequency of your own heartbeat.

Could it be that this box contains a heart?

As soon as this thought appeared, Lu Shen couldn't help but laugh himself.

What a spectacle it would have been if those hundreds of boxes were filled with hearts.

He stepped forward and gently took down a box with a quaint pattern painted on it, with only a clear button on the outside of the box.

Lu Shen's hand was placed on the bright button, and at the moment when he was about to open it, a voice sounded: "Are you sure you want to open it?" ”

Lu Shen stiffened.

Because the voice appeared too abruptly.

Although Lu Shen's realm has reached the realm of the Ten Rank Great Perfection, many times he still shows people at the peak of the Nine Grades.

The perception of the peak of the nine grades is very strong, but with such a powerful perception, when the other party walked to the door of the ancestral hall, Lu Shen didn't even know it.

This can only show that the realm of the person who came is the same as him, or even higher than him.

If the other party wants to harm himself, he may really have no power to fight back.

Lu Shen indifferently put the box on the table and turned to look. An old man with a thin figure and a loose robe looked at Lu Shen with a calm face.

"You're not from this village?"

Lu Shen didn't expect to see an old man here.

But doesn't ignorance mean that no one in this village is over forty years old?

What's the matter with this old man in front of you?

Lu Shen hesitated for a moment and took out the black stone.

The old man glanced at it lightly, his eyes full of strangeness: "I didn't expect that guy from ignorance to give you this black stone." ”

"Do you think you can do this?"

Lu Shen had a thousand questions in his heart, but Wuming said that he would not let him speak, so he could only frown honestly.

The old man smiled faintly and walked in directly.

Lu Shen was suddenly shocked, and his eyes stared at the old man for a moment.

The old man stopped in the ancestral hall and looked up at the black statue, his eyes full of nostalgia: "The world of demons is so far away that people almost forget their existence. ”

The old man bowed respectfully to the golem, then turned and walked towards the figurines of the other two children.

"I'm sure you've seen these acupuncture points, these are the cultivation tricks of the demons."

"They don't need to advance slowly, they only need to have a baptism of blood at a special time to be able to successfully advance to a higher rank."

Lu Shen pondered.

"Those boxes contain hearts."

Heart?

Lu Shen's heart twitched suddenly, and he looked at the boxes in horror.

Who would have thought that those boxes contained beating hearts.

"Don't you wonder whose hearts they belong to?"

The old man's eyes looked at Lu Shen calmly, his eyes were like deep pools, so that people couldn't see any thoughts, no feelings, and no waves.

Lu Shen suddenly became nervous, because the aura on the old man's body had slowly become stronger from the moment he entered the door.

From the seventh grade to the eighth grade, all the way to the current peak of the ninth grade!

And the strange thing was that Lu Shen didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force.

Without any fluctuations, he was able to reach the peak of the Nine Grades, even Lu Shen himself couldn't do it.

The old man glanced at Lu Shen, smiled faintly, and took a box in his hand.

"It's my heart."

What?

Lu Shen felt his scalp tingle, could this old man be crazy?

How can there be anyone in this world who can keep their heart in a box and still be able to live?

"Don't you believe it?"

Looking at the old man's gaze, Lu Shen shook his head, his eyes full of disbelief.

The old man smiled: "Many people don't believe that there are unintentional people in this world. ”

"But there's a lot of things in this world that you can't understand."

"Like, why am I here?"

......

Lu Shen walked out of the ancestral hall and turned to bow respectfully to the old man.

The old man nodded with a smile: "Ancestral hall and party, I think you have gained a lot, I hope it will help you." ”

Lu Shen turned around and walked towards the outside of the village.

At the entrance of the village, Gong Luoyan stood beside Wuming, looking excited: "I didn't expect you and my grandfather to have such a friendship." ”

"Grandpa Wuming, can the juniors invite you to Jiankang?"

Wuming smiled and said: "Jiankang won't go, but if there is a chance, the old man of Zhenbeiguan wants to go around." ”

Gong Luoyan showed a trace of regret on her face.

Seeing Lu Shen walking out, Wuming said, "Who did you meet?" ”

Lu Shen said honestly: "I met a child and a strange old man. ”

"Hmm."

Wuming looked at Lu Shen's calm expression and said, "What did that old guy tell you?" ”

Lu Shen told Wuming about the conversation with the old man in the ancestral hall, and Gong Luoyan beside him was shocked: "Heartless person? How is this possible, how can there be such a person in the world without a heart? ”

"And put the heart in the box?"

As soon as she thought of that picture, Gong Luoyan couldn't help but tremble: "I've never heard of such a thing, how can a person live if he doesn't have a heart?" This, this can't be. ”

Gong Luoyan turned to look at Lu Shen, but it didn't look like a joke at all.

"Is this true?"

This idea only existed in Gong Luoyan's mind for a second, and was ruthlessly denied by himself: "It's completely impossible, all this is a guess out of thin air." ”

Lu Shen sighed: "It's true, I saw with my own eyes that the old man took out his heart and swallowed it like this." ”

Looking at Lu Shen's movements, Gong Luoyan couldn't help but retch.

"Don't say it, I'm disgusting."

Gong Luoyan couldn't stand it anymore, so she ran away alone and retched against the wall.

Wuming looked at Lu Shen: "That's right, the so many boxes placed in the ancestral hall you saw are actually people from our whole village." ”

Ignorance's words silenced Lu Shen.

"Isn't it a surprise?"

Lu Shen nodded: "I never thought that there would be people in this world who had no intention of living. ”

Wuming sighed: "Actually, about the matter of the Bone Phase Village, someone started to study it a long time ago, but those people are either secretive now, or they will stay in this Bone Phase Village forever and become the village guard." ”

"The village keeper?"

Lu Shen looked at Wuming: "You are the village guard?" ”

A wry smile appeared on Wuming's face: "The old man has been here for a long time, and the one you saw in the ancestral hall is Chu Peng, he is now the second batch of people who came here to explore, and he was also left here in the end." ”

Lu Shen felt a little afraid, he just walked in like this, if something happened, would he also be left forever?

As if sensing Lu Shen's thoughts, Wuming smiled and said, "As long as your curiosity is not heavy and you don't talk to the people here, you won't be left behind." ”

"And Chu Peng and I were left behind because we were too curious."

Lu Shen asked hesitantly, "Then who left it?" ”

Wuming sighed: "I don't know, I remember that the darkness covered the whole village, and when I woke up, I found that I could no longer get out, and this was decades. ”

"Lu Shen, there are too many secrets hidden in this village, we know that he has a relationship with the demon clan, and we also know that these people will leave the village and go to the north when they become adults, but there is no way to control this matter."

Lu Shen pondered for a moment: "Why didn't this matter be reported to the imperial court, and then the army encircled and suppressed?" ”

"It's useless, there have been several officers and soldiers here, and even once the whole village was wiped out, but in the end, there will still be people here, multiplying, surviving, repeating the old things."

"And I will be like a big dream, and when I wake up, I will find that I have become a village keeper again."

"That's all there is to this Bone Village."

"If you want to open all its secrets, you may only find out until you actually get in touch with them."

After Wuming finished speaking, he casually handed over the black stone that Lu Shen handed him over again: "This is the certificate to enter this Bone Phase Village, as long as you have it, you can come in at any time, of course, the rules remain the same." ”

Lu Shen looked down at the ordinary stone in his palm and said, "What if there is no such stone?" ”

Ignorance said, "Without this stone, you would have seen a different scene. ”

Lu Shen didn't know what this other scene was talking about, but he knew that all this in front of him revealed a strangeness everywhere.

Lu Shen walked towards Gong Luoyan: "Are you okay?" ”

Gong Luoyan shook his head: "It's okay, Lu Shen, when are we leaving." ”

"Now."

Lu Shen took Gong Luoyan and walked into the distance.

"Ignorant senior?"

Lu Shen hesitated for a moment: "He is the keeper of this village, so naturally he can't leave." ”

The two walked far away, and Gong Luoyan couldn't help but glance back at the Bone Xiang Village, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "I didn't expect this Bone Xiang Village to be so lively." ”

Lu Shen turned around and looked, only to see that the Guxiang Village was full of men, women, and children, and these people had a peaceful smile on their faces, without any abnormality.

And a few children were listening to the gods and demons around Ignorance.

"It's all an illusion?"

Lu Shen shook his head, looked up again, and saw that the child he met at the door of the ancestral hall was pointing at him, and the people next to him were all looking at Lu Shen curiously, as if looking at a monster.

"Lu Shen, how do I feel that the people in this village are not normal, is it too weird for them to laugh?"
