Chapter 49: The Faceless Ghost (16)
As soon as the god stepped down, the island fell back into the sea, and all the spirit officials in the cave also fell over, and they couldn't help but crash into each other.
After the shaking stopped, Xiang Zhicheng got up, pressed his hand to Kunyang and shouted: "The situation has changed, I'll go outside to take a look." ”
"Don't go out!" Ren Dingbei hurriedly stopped, tried to support his body, leaned his back against the wall, and said with a sigh of relief: "Wait...... Elder Yin is casting a spell, be careful of being affected by the spell. ”
The words are divided into two ends, at this moment outside the cave, the golden armor god is holding a giant sword, and his luck is slashing forward, and the sword light shines out, all the way through the sea and waves, slashing towards the place where the rune paper is posted.
"Bang!" Chaos burst on his forehead, tearing through countless strands of hair in a tremor, flesh and blood sprinkled with barnacles, and the surface of the water became cloudy.
Seeing that the demon had suffered a heavy blow, Yin Xiaoxian raised his eyebrows with joy, although the aura in his body had been exhausted, he still cheered up, and shouted: "Kill again." ”
The god waved his sword high, Yin Xiaoxian showed a tired smile, as long as he struck again, this catastrophe would be over-
"Poof. ”
However, there was a pain in his chest, and the smile froze.
"What?" Yin Xiaoxian lowered his head hesitantly, but when he saw that half of the clear blade penetrated his chest, the true qi of the body protection was like a void.
He recognized it - this was Lin Yi's saber.
As the blade was pulled out, Yin Xiaoxian felt that all his strength had been drained, and his legs knelt weakly, leaving only his face full of confusion and unwillingness.
The aura was suddenly cut off, and the Golden Armor Heavenly God's movements were steep, and his body was twisted and shattered, and then turned into a little starlight, which was blown away by the wind.
......
The moon reflects the sea, the water surface is swaying, Lin Yi is constantly sinking, and the surroundings are cold and cold. The fish monsters gathered and opened their mouths to gnaw on his body, blood slowly spreading underwater.
In the dimness, a pair of transparent arms wrapped around his neck from behind, and a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "My lord...... Wake up. ”
Gu Wanxi's soul embraced him, and one person and one ghost fell into the depths of the ocean, and his robe was stretched open by the current, like a rain lotus blooming.
"Hmm!" Lin Yi woke up in shock, hurriedly opened his eyes, choked a few sips of cold water in a panic, the taste was fishy and salty, and immediately came back to his senses and struggled to go upstream.
He got out of the water, exhaled his breath, activated his true qi to protect his body, and then ripped off the fish monster with his belt, and his cheeks twitched in pain.
"Miss Gu?" Lin Yi asked with a squint of eyes as he looked at the phantom behind him.
"Childe ......" Gu Wanxi smiled with tears, then pointed to the land, and said softly: "Someone has taken your treasure knife, go and chase it." ”
Lin Yi clenched his fists when he heard this, Fang Jue's hands were empty, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly swam to the shore.
After a while, he climbed onto the beach, looked down to check the injury, and suddenly saw that his left armpit had been torn open by the fish monster, several ribs were exposed, and the pain had long been paralyzed.
"My lord, are you okay?" Gu Wanxi floated behind him, so he couldn't really see it.
Seeing the Golden Armor Heavenly God disappear suddenly, Lin Yi was surprised and confused, then lowered his left arm to cover the wound, shook his head and said, "It's okay, go and help Elder Yin first." ”
He trotted forward, the pain quietly awakened, every step was like a pain in his heart, cold sweat rolled down his cheeks, and his face turned pale.
Beads of blood dripped down the sleeve robes and spread all the way down the beach.
After a while, he ran to the end of the island, and saw several strange pythons biting Yin Xiaoxian's limbs and hanging him in the air;
Chaos Yuan opened his bloody eyes, and red light shrouded Yin Xiaoxian's body, as if it was occupying his mind.
"Hungry ghost, you dare to betray the elders!" Lin Yi raised his eyebrows in anger and rushed forward quickly.
"You haven't been bitten to death yet?" the little ghost turned around in surprise and raised his knife to meet him, Lin Yi secretly used the heavenly eye to lock Hanguang, and his mind was everywhere, and the treasure knife broke free from its hand and flew out, shooting at him.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the little ghost hurriedly ran towards the sea. Lin Yi didn't allow it to escape, waved his hand to take Hanguang, immediately calmed his mind, and slowly opened his mouth.
Exhale-inhale-
In an instant, Lin Yi's figure flickered, and the three-foot hazy Hua condensed into a wisp of green smoke, sweeping towards the back of the little ghost's head.
This move was faster than the thunder, and the little ghost only ran a few steps, and then he felt the strong wind blowing, and then the knife flashed, and the bright moon in front of him tore apart from it, as if the space was cut in two.
The blade didn't pass the eyes of the imp, and its feet didn't stop, but its body still ran forward, but half of its head flew up, and the sky spun around, killing him on the spot.
Lin Yi put away Hanguang, stepped on the little ghost's brain, and then put his hands together, and ran the five thunder palms, blasting its body into a charred corpse, touching the ground and shattering.
Finally rushed back to Yin Xiaoxian's side, and was just about to pull out the knife to cut off the monster python, but Yin Xiaoxian raised his head, revealing a haggard face under his messy hair, and said dyingly: "Slow down...... There is no salvation left for the poor road. ”
He looked at his arm, his bloodline had been connected by the monster python, and he was one with the demon, if Lin Yi recklessly cut it off, he would also die violently.
"Yin Lingguan. Gu Wanxi floated in the air, turning her head as if she couldn't bear to look at it.
"Ah...... Senior Brother Lin actually brought your soul back. Yin Xiaoxian smiled with relief and said weakly: "Wait...... Remember to let her soul burrow back into the shell, and then go to Tianzun...... Maybe it will be ...... Ahem!"
He spoke intermittently, and was finally interrupted by a violent cough, and said urgently: "Senior Brother Lin...... Do me a favor. ”
"Daoist, you said. Lin Yi sighed sideways.
"Chaos is eating away at my mind...... Quickly take out the talisman paper in the arms of the poor road...... There is a picture inside that says Samadhi True Fire...... Sticking it to my forehead......"
Lin Yi mobilized the aura of the dantian, first turned yang into yin, then put his hand into the red light, took out a bunch of sundries from his arms, found the samadhi true fire talisman, and was about to hand it over, but stopped moving, frowned and asked, "What do you want to do, Dao Chief?"
Yin Xiaoxian laughed miserably: "Since the demon has invaded my divine sense...... Poor Dao simply burned its soul with real fire......"
"Then you're not—" Lin Yi exclaimed, quickly withdrawing his hand.
Yin Xiaoxian shouted angrily: "Hurry up, don't delay time!"
Lin Yi was speechless, and only nodded after a long time, and sighed: "I understand." Then he gently pressed the talisman paper to the door of his head, and stuck it with blood and sweat.
Yin Xiaoxian grinned, looked at the token of the Night Candle Club in his hand, suddenly burst into tears, and said in a trembling voice: "Poor Dao will be a torch...... Brighten up the long dark night. ”
After speaking, the rune paper surged and ignited, and the flames separated the two. Yin Xiaoxian sang loudly in the fire: "The demons are endless, the candles at night are not extinguished, humanity is eternal, and righteousness is eternal......
By the end, the song had turned into a terrible scream, reaching into the sky. The Samadhi True Fire burns rapidly from the inside out, and then spreads along the monster python to the chaotic head, and for a time the light shines brightly, illuminating the night as bright as day.
True fire surged through the demon's body, and it writhed wildly to break countless strands of hair, and fell back into the sea with a pop, splashing huge waves, and fleeing to the north with the flames.
The moon was bright and the wind was urgent, the sea was still the same, Lin Yi looked at Yin Xiaoxian's original location, where there was only a pool of ashes left, and there were no bones.
Lin Yi slowly knelt down and bowed his head towards the ashes, and it was only at this moment that he understood what sacrifice was, and only then did he understand the heaviness behind the three words of the Night Candle Society.
"Miss Gu, let's go back. Lin Yi got up abruptly, turned back along the original road, shouted the names of Ren Dingbei and the others, and found the cave where they were hiding.
Waiting for Gu Wanxi to burrow into the shell, Lin Yi hastily treated the wound, and then stayed beside her and closed his eyes, waiting for the dawn to break.
Knowing that Yin Xiaoxian died heroically, everyone wept, and built a mound for him the next day, and kneaded it into incense with clay to mourn. The dark iron tablet was buried in the tomb by Lin Yi and accompanied its owner to sleep underground.
Due to the damage of the ship, everyone can only be trapped on the island. Lin Yiyun was self-medicated, and after a decade, the left armpit wound had just healed, and Ren Dingbei was also connected to a broken bone, but it was still a little inconvenient to walk.
Although the spirit officials can sit quietly without eating or drinking on weekdays, they need to use spiritual energy to heal their wounds, but they consume extremely essence yuan, and the demand for food has become huge. Fortunately, Xiang and Shao are sound and rely on them to make a living from fishing.
During this period, Black Eagle flew back to the island with the secret letter, shrunk into Lin Yi's arms and cried: "Son, what kind of letter for help did you write, it is clearly two suicide notes!"
Black Hawk sobbed: "Fortunately, I opened it and saw it, so I rushed back overnight, and we are going to die together...... As for the monster, I'm going to peck it twice. ”
Ren Dingbei was eating meat with the wine jar, looking at them leisurely, and said with a smile: "Haha, this spirit beast has a lot of friendship with Brother Lin, why don't my brother testify and let the two of you get married?"
Lin Yi stroked the black eagle's feathers, and said angrily: "Don't mess around, how can one person and one eagle get married?"
"Hey, Lin Yi doesn't know anything, the two are happy with each other, and they tie the knot. We monks and sword spirits and sword souls are all married, how can we stick to the form. ”
Lin Yi diverted the topic: "Brother Ren, your alcohol addiction is too great, your serious injury has not healed, and you are clamoring for me to go to the sea to get you a wine jar." The sea was so salty that it hurt so much that the boy couldn't sleep well for several nights. ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Ren Dingbeizui said so, but his tone was giggling, he still didn't know how to repent, and he smacked his tongue and said, "It's enjoyable!"
Let's say that the paper crane flew to the Tianshu Peak, Tianzun received the letter and read it, and immediately sent the red-haired man to come to help. The red-haired road leader set off on the clouds, and he did not sleep for several days in a row, and finally arrived at Qingbo Island.
At noon that day, the spirit officers were collecting driftwood on the beach, trying to set up a raft and leave the island. When the fire cloud fell, everyone stopped, and Ren Dingbei limped forward to report the passing.
“...... Elder Yin sacrificed Chengren, but the disciple was incompetent and let the demon escape. Ren Dingbei lowered his head and sighed, feeling deeply guilty.
"It's good that you're all right. The red-haired expression eased slightly, waved his sleeves and said, "Lead the way." ”
Ren Dingbei was stunned when he heard this, and Lin Yi picked up the conversation: "Elder Yin was buried in the back mountain by us, and the kid will lead the way." ”
The red-haired nodded, walked up the mountain with them, and mourned in front of Yin Xiaoxian's tomb. After doing this, the red-haired summoned a cloud of fire, picked up the people, and flew to the west.
Returning to Tianshu Peak, everyone said goodbye to each other, and the red-haired man called Lin Yi: "Tianzun wants to see you." ”
Lin Yi hugged Gu Wanxi, stepped on the clouds, and turned to the Tianzun Cave Mansion, where Wang Lao was already waiting in the pavilion.
"Good work. Elder Wang said with concern, "This trip is quite dangerous, and in the face of the ancient demons, it is not easy for you to come back alive." ”
Lin Yi put down Gu Wanxi and bowed: "Report to Tianzun, in the battle of Qingbo Island, Gu Protector was unfortunately taken away by demons, and the kid's soul was incomplete when he found her, can you cast a spell to save her?"
Wang Lao swept Gu Wanxi with his heavenly eyes, then walked out of the pavilion, waved his sleeves and rolled up the two of them, turning into electric light and shooting towards another floating peak in the distance.
When the thunder fell, they landed on a flat ground. Lin Yi looked around, the surroundings were empty and barren, only a bare peach tree on the edge, and the branches and leaves had long since withered.
Lin Yi picked up Gu Wanxi, followed Wang Lao to the peach tree, and heard him say, "Bury it." ”。
"Buried?" Lin Yi was stunned and said in shock, "But Elder Yin said that she still has ...... to be saved."
"Well, I'm trying to save her. Wang Lao smiled and said, "This cave was originally going to be given to you, but now it's just right to be used." ”
