Chapter 42: The Atonement Part II
The soulless soul pushed open the door, and the moon hung high in the sky, and the stars filled the dark blue night sky like chess pieces.
The ghostless soul looked up at the sky and the moon, and the past kept coming to his heart, making him feel emotional.
Soulless left the house, gently closing the door, his figure swept up the roof. Because of the lack of soul injuries in the battle with the Spirit King, his light skills were also greatly affected, and when he landed on the roof, his body staggered and almost fell.
The ghostless soul left the mansion and headed northwest.
Everywhere, the kind is in the Northwest.
The Soul of the Ghost suffered internal injuries and should have recuperated well, but now it is running its internal force and causing internal injuries. The Soulless walked a section and bent his head down, a stream of blood coming out of his mouth.
The Soul wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and this time he slowed down and continued to walk forward.
Twenty feet behind the ghostless soul, there was a person who was hiding in the darkness and tailing.
This person is none other than Chu Wolf.
Chu Wolf was also unable to move too fast due to his injury.
Chu Wolf tried not to make a sound, and carefully followed from a distance, so as not to be discovered by the Ghost Soul.
After a few miles, the soulless came to a desolate place. Under the bright moon, a head hovered in front of the ghostless soul. The skull faces the ghostless soul, which looks extremely eerie.
The Soulless walked over to the head, which was stuck on a man-high pole. The other end of the pole is stuck in the ground. If you don't look closely, it's like a human head suspended in the air.
Others don't understand the purpose of this head, but the soulless does.
This is the boundary marked by the people of the Soul Burial Temple, and no one is allowed to cross this boundary.
Back then, the ghost soul also cut off other people's heads, picked them on poles, and inserted them into the ground.
As for whose head is cut off, it is up to him to see who is unlucky, regardless of good or evil.
The Soulless Soul walked forward again, and saw three masked bald men sitting cross-legged on the ground. All three of them closed their eyes, as if they were meditating or sleeping.
There was a pile of burnt campfire ashes in the middle of the three.
There are a few bald heads, and at night, a few heads are erected.
There are three bald heads, so there are three heads in a triangular position ten zhang away. Each head is more than a dozen feet apart. It's like a rodeo, and the place where the enclosure is the territory of the three bald men tonight.
The trespasser dies.
Soulless walked towards the three masked bald men.
The skinny, bald man opened his eyes suddenly.
A pair of eyes flickered like the faint red light of a campfire burned out.
The skinny, bald man also pulled himself off to reveal a shriveled and wrinkled face, like an air-dried orange peel. The face has no eyebrows and no beard. It is also difficult to tell his approximate age.
Soulless walked up to the skinny bald man and prostrated on the ground, he said, "Soulless has seen the senior brother in charge. ”
The skinny bald man waved his hand at the pile of ashes, which was really magical, and the pile of ashes rekindled and burned with a "bang".
The firelight reflected the skinny, bald face, glowing a blurry red.
The skinny bald man spoke, his voice dark, as if it were coming from hell.
"If you don't come again, I'll be ready to go to the house to find you. And all the people in that house will die. ”
"I was not lightly injured, I was slow to move and came late. I hope that the senior brother in charge will bear me. Soulless explained.
The skinny bald man waved his hand, and the two masked bald men sitting cross-legged instantly rose up. The two of them rose, still in the same sitting position. One floats south in a seated position, the other north.
One sits on the head of the man to the south, and the other falls on the head of the man on the north side [Biqu Island].
These two men are both evasive and vigilant.
Chu Wolf came from the south, and he had already seen the "levitating" head in front of him. This strange scene made Chu Wolf bewilder. Chu Wolf wanted to go forward further, but suddenly a masked bald man flew over and sat on the head, and Chu Wolf hurriedly fell to the ground.
Chu Wolf guessed that this masked man and bald man were from the Hidden Soul Temple.
Chu Wolf was extremely cautious, in order to avoid being discovered by this bald man, Chu Wolf's body squirmed lightly and slowly retreated.
In the end, Chu Wolf retreated to a pit, he was still, and he didn't even gasp.
Because if the other party runs the Hidden Dragon Sutra to monitor the surroundings, the Chu wolf will be easily discovered by the other party.
......
In front of the bonfire, only the skinny bald man and the ghostless soul crouched on the ground remained.
Skinny bald man: "Get up." ”
Soulless said: "The guilty body, don't dare to get up." ”
The skinny bald man repeated, "Get up!"
Soulless got up, and he sat cross-legged across from the skinny bald man.
In the firelight, the ghostless expression was full of guilt and guilt.
The thin bald man looked at the Soulless and said, "It's been almost five years since you left the Soul Burial Temple, and you haven't been back once in these five years, and you haven't heard any news. Have you completely forgotten where you came, who you are, and who you are at the Soul Temple?"
The Soulless Soul hung his head and was silent.
The thin bald man said again: "You are the deputy head of the Soul Burial Temple, you know the rules of the temple better than anyone else, how many sins have you committed, don't you need to say it?" Also, lift your head up for me." ”
The skinny bald man spoke calmly with an unquestionable command.
The Soulless Soul raised his head and looked at the skinny bald man.
"It's a crime to leave the temple without permission. Involved in disputes in the rivers and lakes, two crimes. Being driven by others for money, three sins. And ......" Speaking of this, the soulless expression also looked painful, and his face twitched and continued: "Killing junior brother by mistake, four crimes!"
The thin bald man said: "There are only forty people in the whole temple. You are the number two person, and you have also cultivated the Hidden Dragon Sutra to the fifth level, and with your qualifications, it is only a matter of time before you break through to the sixth level. Originally, I was going to wait for you to break through the sixth level, and then I would hand over the position of head to you. As a result, you killed your brother. Kill him just because he found out that you were secretly leaving the temple to stop you. Do you think you're damned?"
"Sin deserves death!" "But now that I am working for Li Si, when the time limit expires, I will go back to the Soul Temple to confess my guilt, and I will be willing to suffer from ten thousand snakes and turn into a white bone." ”
The thin bald man said: "I have doubts, why did you leave the temple desperately back then." Also, with your personality, you are willing to be driven by the rich for money. 300,000 taels a Chinese New Year's Eve, which is really sky-high. What do you want that money for?"
Soulless said: "To atone for the sins committed when I was a teenager." That sin, hidden in my heart for so many years, tormented me all the time. I can't stand it anymore, and I can only atone for my sins in order to find peace of soul. ”
The thin bald man stared at the Soul Void and said, "You entered the Soul Burial Temple at the age of eighteen, so your sin was committed before entering the Soul Burial Temple?"
Soulless said, "Yes." ”
The skinny bald man said, "What sin? And since it is atonement, who is the object of atonement?"
Soulless said: "Senior brother, forgive me for not being able to say. ”
The skinny bald man's gaze became aggressive, and he said, "Now, it's just you and me here." Twenty zhang in radius, in addition to my two disciples, there were thirteen rats, and four hares, all of which were in the cave. There is no living thing but that. What you say now is in my ears, and I speak in your ears, and God knows that you know and I know. Say, maybe there is still room for manoeuvre. Don't say it, I can only abolish your martial arts and bring you back. Now you choose. ”
In this case, the Soul of the Ghost can only choose to speak.
He can't let the senior brother in charge abolish his martial arts.
The Soul of the Dead slowly spat out three words.
"Chen Zuohu ......"
