"Are you God?"

"No, the City God is not a god, I am just an ordinary soul. ”

"You, you don't look good. Li Xue on the side interjected timidly.

Ji Zijian turned his head, looked at Li Xue in surprise, and stared at the statue for a long time, but he never saw the soul body of the so-called city god.

"Little doll's spiritual wisdom is really rare!" Chenghuang paused, "Don't worry about anything, while I still have some time, if there is anything you want to ask, just ask!"

"Do you have superiors? Those yin priests outside just now seem to want to do something to you? As far as I know, they should have been under your control, right? ”

Chenghuang's next explanation made Ji Zijian have a big head for a while. It turned out that this city god was not assigned by the emperor, and his city god position was inherited from him.

The previous Chenghuang dates back to the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, they were all flesh-and-blood mortals, who were selected by the previous Chenghuang during their lifetime, and will not enter reincarnation after death, and will continue to assign the next Chenghuang in the Chenghuang Temple until their souls dry up and will die.

As for Ji Zijian's worry about the problem of incense conflicts with other city gods, it will not happen. This kind of inheritance of the city god is not subject to the incense of the world at all, and it is completely alone, which is also the reason why the city god, as a soul body, cannot survive for a long time.

Staying at home, unable to absorb yin qi, and without the support of incense qi, basically from the moment he became a soul to stay in this City God Temple, he has been consuming his body and waiting for death.

"In other words, the Yin Division of this place is not under your control, and you are not involved in the protection of this city?" Ji Zijian asked.

"That's half right. I don't care about the Yin Division, but I am guarding an ancient secret, which is related to the survival of this city, so it is still my responsibility to protect this city. ”

"What's the secret?" Li Xue saw that Chenghuang was no different from ordinary people except for his soul body, and his courage gradually grew.

"No, don't say it yet. Ji Zijian grabbed Li Xue on the side, "I respect your profession, but I don't want to know." ”

"Why? You don't want to know I want to know, I ask. Li Xue shook off Ji Zijian's hand.

"Hehe, those who don't want to know must know, and those who want to know may not have a chance to know. The faint voice of the city god came. "Little doll, the yin is here again, you go out first to block for a while, I have something to say to your friend. ”

"Ahh

Ji Zijian felt bad, and was about to pull Li Xue to escape, but saw Li Xue being sent out of the temple by a wall of air, only Li Xue's anxious shouts, getting farther and farther away, and the entire City God Temple instantly quieted down.

"Great God, everything is easy to discuss, but if you say it in advance, I will definitely not accept your inheritance to be the next generation of Chenghuang. ”

"Hehe, young man, there are many responsibilities in this world, and you will only realize the meaning after others have given them. ”

"Don't, don't, you old man, I respect you, ah...."

Ji Zijian felt a warm current rushing into his eyebrows, and in an instant, his eyebrows were as hot as fire, and his headache was splitting, Ji Zijian roared and forcibly resisted, but his divine consciousness was not formed at all, and another divine consciousness that rushed into his eyebrows was like a torrent, ruthlessly impacting his mind.

Ji Zijian's mind has seen many images like a movie. From the previous Dugu waiting for death, to the bloody battle in the future, until the last person, that person was unkempt, and there was a huge lion squatting beside him, a three-meter-tall lion, a man and a beast facing the sea.

In the roaring sea, countless strange beasts rushed out, and the bloody battle scene lasted for an unknown amount of time. The severe pain made Ji Zijian faint......

Ji Zijian wanted to know what happened to the old city god and the lion later, but he didn't expect that this Laoshizi city god was really passed down from generation to generation from the era of water control as he expected, and that lion was the legendary divine beast ---- Zhenhai Roar in the Lion City.

Thousands of years ago, they fought bloodily, expanded their territory, and guarded one side to be admired, thousands of years later, the aura of heaven and earth was exhausted, and they had several generations of people, before and after hundreds of years of loneliness, until the oil ran out, the lamp dried up, and the body was extinguished.

People all admire heroes, and how many people are willing to give up the opportunity of reincarnation and the great rivers and mountains outside, and stick to an ancient temple until the oil runs out?

When Ji Zijian woke up, the sky was already bright, and there was only a dilapidated clay statue left in the City God Temple. Ji Zijian was still worried about Li Xue's safety, but when he opened his eyes and saw Li Xue's concerned eyes, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and leaked a chic smile.

Feeling very full of energy, Ji Zijian tried to move his muscles and bones, but he was unharmed, and learned from Li Xue that Chen Yuanyuan was safe and sound. Ji Zijian stood up, took the intact fox talisman pen from Li Xue's hand, and put it away. Looking at this dilapidated statue of the city god, his eyes became a little dim.

"Hey, Hulk. You seem to have something more in your eyes. ”

"Get down on your knees and kowtow!"

Ji Zijian took the lead in kneeling down and kowtowed respectfully three times. stood up and looked at Li Xue on the side. Although Li Xue was a little unclear, looking at Ji Zijian's serious appearance, it seemed to be a little different from before, in line with the girl's good mood and a little succumbing, she knelt down and slowly bowed to the clay statue.

Who would have thought that at the moment when Li Xue bowed down, the stone statue that originally looked quite strong cracked with a "click", followed by a "Peng" sound, and collapsed with a bang.

Li Xue hurriedly stood up and took two steps back, secretly observing Ji Zijian's face on the side, he didn't seem to be very happy, thinking that what he cared about so much seemed to be damaged because of himself, and quickly apologized: "Oops, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this, it's not, I, I don't know......"

"Cher."

"Hmm."

"Do you think that after the soul is annihilated, something else will be left in this world?"

"Ahh Li Xue looked at Ji Zijian's serious face, and was inexplicably a little nervous.

"For example, me," Ji Zijian suddenly turned around, "I was here, I built a grass hut, and then I died and became a soul, and then the soul died again, and the ashes were gone, and the grass hut is still there, right?"

"Ahh I guess yes, I don't know!"

"There should be, a person's will before life will more or less affect the people around him, and the will of a great man before his life will affect a large number of people, or even an era. Then if there are omnipotent gods, even if they are wiped out, their will in life may affect a piece of heaven and earth. Ji Zijian muttered to himself and walked out of the dilapidated City God Temple.

Through the dense jungle, there are a few towering trees, and through the towering trees, there are a few clouds that look very thick, and behind the clouds, there is a vast sky. All these seemingly ordinary and unrelated things hide the things --- a nation that has been searching for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

And at this moment, Ji Zijian remembered the honest brother he met on the side of the canal--- Li Sansan. The man who was extradited by Ryoma, the magical axe, and his magical bloodline.

Li Xue behind him looked at the back of looking up at the sky in front of him in a daze, the hippie smiling face was not serious, the sometimes Dun Min had a serious face, put aside the trivial things such as saving his life and the money he owed him, I didn't know why in my heart, and I couldn't help but feel a little more throbbing.

"No, wait a minute!"

Li Xue suddenly looked at Ji Zijian as if he suddenly remembered something, and ran into the ruined temple in a hurry, Li Xue followed in, and saw Ji Zijian pouting his ass and turning over in the pile of dirt where the idol had collapsed.

"What are you looking for?"

"No, after so many years, it's impossible not to leave something behind. ”

Li Xue sighed helplessly, tilted her head, and said, "Hulk, go into the eyes of money, when you die, I will build you a house with money." ”

"Okay, thank you. Ji Zijian shouted without looking back, "Ah, I found it!"

In Ji Zijian's hand, there was a square seal with a side length of more than 3 centimeters, and Ji Zijian couldn't understand the words on the seal, so he gave it to Li Xue, and Li Xue couldn't understand it.

A meal is naturally indispensable, what is the scholarly family since childhood, looking knowledgeable, gentle and elegant, in fact, how ignorant......

Li Xue had already been surprised by this self-righteous neurosis, so she simply covered her ears and ignored him. It wasn't until she watched Ji Zijian carefully take out an artifact that was older than one by one from that small seal, that Li Xue forgot Ji Zijian's chatter and came up with a smile...

"Don't move!"

"Hey, Hulk, don't be so stingy, I've done my best. ”

"This is something we organized, what are you an outsider to participate in?"

"What organization?" Li Xue stopped suddenly, her fair face was very close, and her watery eyes stared at Ji Zijian and asked vigilantly.

"No, nothing. ”

"Really?" Li Xue's voice pulled the elder, "We're friends, aren't we?"

"Not exactly, a talented dish like you can only be my follower at most. ”

"Ji Zijian!"

"Oh, okay, okay, na, this yin and yang realm, this compass is for you, you really can't ask for anything else. Ji Zijian paused, "These two things should be very suitable for you, after all, I have met several people, and they all say what kind of tire you are." ”

"Where are you looking, rascal?"

"I didn't. ”

"Hey, there's a villain here for me!"

"No, no, this one won't work. Ji Zijian snatched a lifelike little clay figure from Li Xue's hand. Looking at Li Xue, who was a little aggrieved, she slowly collected a bunch of things on the ground into the City God Seal one by one, including the clay figure. He turned around and said sorry.

"Let's go, let's find something to eat first, and then let's get back to the Lion City as soon as possible." ”

"Hey, Hulk, what happened last night, and what about the City God?"

"Dead. ”

"You... It doesn't seem to be the same as before, it can't be that he was taken on by the city god, right?" Li Xue thought about it and stopped, and said suspiciously.

Ji Zijian turned to stare at Li Xue: "I know that you have a birthmark in the shape of a yin-yang fish on your buttocks, on the right, two or three inches up your thighs." ”

"Shut up!" Li Xue pounced, but Ji Zijian had already dodged more than ten meters away, laughing and taking the lead.

Li Xueyuan, who was behind him, paused, lowered his head thoughtfully, and then secretly curled the corners of his mouth and followed.

"Hey, Hulk, wait for me!"
