Soon, more than a dozen bodies were found beneath the sand. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info these dead corpses are all white without exception, their eyes are blood-red, and their faces seem to be smiling but not smiling.

An eerie aura spread along with the dead bodies found. Even Yun Rui couldn't help frowning, because even he didn't know what the cause of death of these people was. Of course, this is also because the current cultivation has not been restored.

"It's strange, there is no wound, it doesn't look like it's poisoned, how did Xiang Kun and his men die?" said Ghost Da very puzzled. After so many years on this road, he has long been bold, his hands have been stained with blood, and he has seen a lot of scenes of dead people, but seeing this scene, he still feels a chill in his heart.

The ghost looked at Yun Rui intentionally or unintentionally, and found that he didn't have the slightest look of fear, but the beautiful woman hugged him with her eyes closed and trembling slightly, looking very scared.

"I'm so scared of people..."Duanmu Xue Concubine seemed to be really scared.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here. Yunrui patted her on the back and comforted. At this time, he suddenly felt that Duanmu Xuefei's appearance was much cuter than that ruthless Oriental envoy.

"Damn, it's a little weird here, we can't camp here at night. Alain took a deep breath and said, "If my guess is correct, we are at the foot of the Bodhi Temple, because it is the highest. I suspect that Xiang Kun's death was not man-made, but..."Saying this, Alan did not continue, and a look of fear appeared on her beautiful face.

"What? It's not man-made, it's a ghost," the bald head asked a little nervously.

Alan shook his head, "Although I don't know if there are ghosts in the world, it should have nothing to do with ghosts, it is likely... Let's switch places, and then I'll make my guesses. ”

No one wants to stay here any longer, especially now that it's getting dark. And they left and camped at a place three miles away.

There are no trees in the desert, and even a bonfire can't burn, but fortunately, there is a bright moon in the desert, and it is not dark. It's just a cold April night.

Forming a circle around him, Alain said his opinion: "You know, because of my family origins, I studied folklore and religious history in school, so I know a lot about the secret history of folk religion.

There was a strange thing in the ruins of the ancient country of Shache in the Western Regions seven or eight years ago, the ruins of a temple were connected to the dead, and the death was also very strange. At that time, I was still in college, and when I learned the news from the Internet, I told my grandfather, who was still alive at the time.

My grandfather was not too surprised to hear this, he said that when he was young, he was investigating in the Western Regions, and he and the archaeological team once found a lot of white bones on a certain stone temple site, and after testing, it was found that these white bones were found in almost all eras.

Later, the research unit boldly came up with a hypothesis, which was related to the struggle between Buddhism and Halal religion in the history of the Western Regions.

A thousand years ago, the Western Regions was a place ruled by Buddhism, many city-states and tribes believed in Buddhism, and the status of monks was very high, and there were forty-nine large temples in the entire Western Regions at that time.

However, later, the Halal Religion invaded the east, and the Arab Empire, which took Halal as the state religion, broke out the Battle of 'Heng Rus' in order to compete with the Tang Dynasty for hegemony in Central Asia.

As a result, the defeat of the Don Army was due to the defection of some countries in the Tang Army Alliance. Gao Xianzhi, the general of the Tang Army, only led a few thousand remnants to return east. A few years later, the Anshi Rebellion occurred in the Tang Dynasty, and there was no time to compete with the Arab Empire for hegemony in the Western Regions, so it could only allow the Western Regions to be Islamized.

After the Battle of Hengros, the Halal forces slowly invaded the Western Regions, and carried out a planned extermination of Buddhism in the Western Regions. In order to completely eliminate the influence of Buddhism in the Western Regions, after destroying many temples, the Halal Sect also set up 'self-sacrifice platforms' on the ruins of the temples, which is said to suppress the obsession and desire in the temple.

The legend of the self-altar is very evil, and I don't know if it's true. It's just that the ruins of the temple that were later suppressed by the self-altar are always inexplicably dead. After a long time, temples and Buddhism became completely synonymous with ominous in the Western Regions, and the influence of Buddhism was completely lost.

Bodhi Temple was a big temple in the Western Regions at that time, and after it was destroyed, there was no reason why the Halal Sect would not arrange a 'self-sacrifice platform', so I suspect that Xiang Kun and others died under this strange 'self-sacrifice platform'. It's just that thousands of years have passed, and even if this 'self-altar' really exists, is it still useful now? It's scary to think about. ”

The ghost and the others were silent when they heard this. Yun Rui fell into deep thought. In the True Realm, a formation is still useful for tens of thousands of years. But in this world, what altar can still live after a thousand years?

"Is there anything else to say about this self-altar?" Yunrui asked.

Although Alan was very unimpressed with Yun Rui, he still replied: "The secret history records that the self-sacrifice platform of the Halal Sect is to willingly sacrifice one's own dead soul to the gods, and as long as you enter the self-sacrifice platform on the three days of the full moon, you are willing to sacrifice yourself. As for how the altar was arranged, and what the principle was, no one knows. ”

Yun Rui felt more and more that this self-altar was like a formation, and now thinking back on the death of Xiang Kun and the others, it was like the death of the Yang God was shattered.

Could it be a Yang Breaking Array? The Yang Breaking Array is a Yin Array, a yang god that can condense the power of yin and strangulate the living. The so-called yang god is actually the spirit, the so-called yin soul yang spirit, once the yang god is broken, the yin soul is difficult to exist alone, and dissipation is inevitable. And the dissipated Yin Soul was absorbed by the Breaking Sun Array, and it became even more powerful. Unless the materials of the array are found to be destroyed.

However, obviously this self-altar does not look like a sun-breaking array, firstly, the sun-breaking array is a higher-level true array, and Yunrui does not believe that there are still people in the mortal world. Second, Xiang Kun and the others were smiling when they died, but their eyes were blood-red, as if they were both willing and unwilling to die when they died, and they didn't want to die under the Breaking Sun Array.

Alain continued: "The self-altar may be true, because a few days ago it was the fifteenth day of the third lunar month, the night of the full moon. ”

The ghost said with a complicated face: "It's so mysterious, but when you say this, I hope it's true." So as long as we don't get there on the night of the full moon, won't it be fine?"

Alan smiled bitterly, the expression on his face became weird, and he said faintly: "But I have heard that those who die on the self-altar will become slaves of the gods, and legend has it that they can return their souls to trouble outsiders..."

When the ghost and the others heard this, they couldn't help but shudder,

Duanmu Xue Concubine was even more "humble", buried her head in Yunrui's chest, and her long eyelashes couldn't help trembling.

As soon as Alan finished speaking, Yun Rui's face changed slightly, because suddenly he saw that under the faint moonlight, more than a dozen black figures were walking towards this side from the direction of the temple ruins, and the speed seemed to be very fast.

"I saw someone coming, over there. Yunrui pointed in the direction of Bodhi Temple.

Everyone's faces changed suddenly, and they all looked in the direction Yun Rui pointed.

"It's... My God, it can't be Xiang Kun and them, right?" Ghost Da also saw it, and immediately his face became ugly.

Alain stood up with a pale face, "Hurry up, hurry up, they're coming." Then he ran on the way he came.

The ghosts, the big ghosts, the four bald heads and the others did not hesitate to run after Alain.

"Brother..."Duanmu Xue Concubine said with a crying voice, tears came out. Yun Rui hesitated, picked her up and followed. Even if it was only the second level of Qi training, he would not take these strange visitors into account, but now that even the first heavy has not recovered, he still doesn't want to take risks, who knows what is coming? It is always not wrong to be careful.

It's a run, but how fast can it be in the desert? Everyone turned around as they ran, only to see the shadows of the black clouds behind them getting closer and closer.

"Ghost, it's a ghost..."A man fell to the ground with his legs limp.

The ghost pulled him up, "Old Seven, don't be cowardly, get up quickly!" Turning his head to look at Yun Rui, he saw that he was holding the woman, not fast or slow, not struggling at all, and not nervous at all, and couldn't help but be surprised.

After running for two miles, Alan stopped out of breath, pulled out the pistol at his waist, and pulled the trigger at the dark shadow not far away in the moonlight.

"Bang!" The crisp sound of gunfire broke the silence of the desert, and the ghost and the others were also shocked, and immediately everyone took out their guns and shot at the rapidly approaching black shadow.

"Bang bang!"

"Smack!"

Eight long and short guns fired together, and the gunfire was very loud, and the momentum was very amazing. But Yun Rui clearly saw that these black shadows that were hit by bullets only paused, and then quickly chased after them.

The others also quickly found out, and their faces turned pale.

"Hurry up! they're not human!" the ghost shouted loudly, cheering up, "Quick, the car is not far away!"

The crowd began to run wildly again, this time at a fast pace. But the shadows were faster, as if unaffected by the soft sand. In a short time, it was only fifty or sixty meters away from everyone.

And the car, there are still at least two miles away. Even Yun Rui was nervous at this time, he ran frantically while running Xiao Zhoutian, hoping to recover to a heavy Qi practice at this time, judging from the progress of the recovery of the dantian, it was also time to recover to a heavy cultivation.

"Ahh

Not to mention him, even the ghost and others, running for several kilometers in the sand, one foot deep and one shallow, are also exhausted. And those dark shadows are already less than thirty meters.

"Fuck it! what the hell!!" the bald head cursed, took off the gun from his shoulder again, and fired a shot aimed at the black shadow at the front.

"Let's shoot!" the ghost said nothing, and everyone opened fire again.

But after being shot, the black shadows shook their bodies, and then pounced silently. By this time, everyone could already see their appearances.

"It's Xiang Kun... Damn it. The ghost said in a daze, forgetting to shoot.
