"Awei...Awei..."
As the woman called out, the coffin master walked towards the plum tree. The mouths on the plum tree began to converge, and the mouth became larger and larger, swallowing up the smaller mouths around it. The huge mouth formed a cave in front of the coffin master, and a huge tongue came out of the cave like a thick red carpet, from which the woman's call continued to be heard.
"Awei—Awei—" Her voice became more and more harsh and sharp.
But Mr. Coffin seemed unaware and continued walking towards the huge open mouth.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow fell behind the mouth.
"Ah Wei--" When it called out to the coffin master for the last time, an extremely huge black pot fell from the sky, and with a "bang", it smashed it flat, and meat splashed everywhere!
"Master Coffin—" Yun Yao rushed over and slapped the dazed Master Coffin on the face.
The coffin master suddenly woke up and looked at Yun Yao: "Xiao Yao?"
“Huh…” Yun Yao breathed a sigh of relief, “Master Guan, those were all voices that bewitched you, why did you fall for them?!”
Guan Ye stared at Yun Yao in a daze. Was that the voice that bewitched him? No, he knew in his heart that it was his sin, the truest voice in his heart.
He raised his head and saw his son picking up the minced meat on the ground to eat. At that moment, his heart was hit hard. Suddenly, his eyes overflowed with painful and resolute darkness. He drew the sword at his waist, gnashed his teeth and whispered with tears: "It's better to die than to live like this! Dad will give you a quick death!"
"Master Coffin!" Yun Yao immediately stopped Master Coffin, "Calm down! Fat Buddha—" Yun Yao turned her head and shouted anxiously.
"Amitabha—" A voice like a loud bell came from the sky, and the fat Buddha's huge round face poked out from the edge of the black pot. He leaned down, and the whole pot tilted towards the direction of Coffin Master and the others.
Fat Buddha smiled at the coffin master and said, "Old Coffin, when you entered the Nine Gates, didn't we all agree to help you find a solution together? The darkness in your heart has left you with nowhere to go, and the light before your eyes will bring you hope..."
Mr. Coffin stood there blankly, and slowly calmed down. The sword in his hand fell limply, and he closed his eyes in pain.
"Now... don't we still have the Great Goddess Lian? She will help you. She doesn't take action now, it must be because the opportunity has not come yet. Look, don't I have a pot now?" The Fat Buddha sat in the huge black pot and swayed from side to side, happy like a tumbler.
The coffin master shook his head, raised his hands and began to slap hard: "I was wrong! I was wrong!"
"Snap!" Suddenly, Zi Gu grabbed the hand that hit him, and he shrank back to his normal human form, but his belly was round and swollen like a pregnant woman with twins.
Mr. Guan looked at Zi Gu.
Zi Gu looked at him, took out the chopstick box and handed it to Coffin Master.
Guan Ye finally forced a smile on his face, took the chopstick box from Zi Gu's hand, and stared at it quietly.
The Fat Buddha shrank to the side of the Coffin Master, and the black pot became a bowl in his hand. He put his hands together and said, "Amitabha - Old Coffin, don't carry it alone, we will carry it for you."
"Yes, Master Guan..." Yun Yao also gently pulled Master Guan's sleeve, "Zi Gu is one of us, we will not abandon him. Don't blame yourself for what happened back then. What does it have to do with you? Those villagers succumbed to the evil forces themselves and blamed you. That's the darkness of their humanity!"
Coffin Master nodded slowly, let out a long sigh, raised his head to look at Zi Gu and said, "Son, go in and sleep." Coffin Master picked up the chopstick box and opened the lid.
Zi Gu blinked, and golden runes wrapped around his body. He secretly glanced at Yun Yao and lowered his head.
"Old Coffin, your son has just eaten, let him digest it." Fat Buddha said with a smile.
When Guan Ye looked at his son's round belly, he couldn't help but smile. He nodded to Zi Gu and looked at Fat Buddha: "By the way, where is the Great God Lian?"
The Fat Buddha put his hands together and said, "Lord Lotus will be fine. Now that we are here, we might as well take a look around. It's such a magical place, but I haven't had a good look at it yet. Let's go for a walk together." After the Fat Buddha finished speaking, he began to stroll around leisurely.
Yun Yao couldn't help but follow him: "Fat Buddha, you have such a strong taste! This place is like hell, it makes me sick to death!"
When Zi Gu saw Yun Yao leaving, he immediately trotted after her and followed behind her silently.
Seeing this, Guan Ye also showed a relieved smile. If his son had not been in trouble, he would be in his thirties now and he would have a grandson in his arms...
"Hahaha, do you still want to eat pig intestines?" The Fat Buddha's voice teased from the front.
Yun Yao was so angry that she jumped up and down: "Fat Buddha - you are so disgusting -"
Uncle Guan laughed and followed everyone slowly, looking at his son's back from afar. If the Great God Lian could really cure his son, he would be willing to do anything, even give up his soul!
Falling down the waterfall, on the green grass, Lian Youyou quietly gazed at the beautiful young man in front of her, and listened to his last words...
"He controls me! He has always controlled me - even if I die - he will lock my soul - ah -" He howled in pain, blood-red tears flowed from his eyes, staining his fair face red, "So I lured others in too! Because I hate it so much! I hate it so much - I want to kill people - I also want to destroy them - just like..." After howling in pain, Lu Xuan's expression became dull again, and he curled up in pain, hugging his head, "Just like he destroyed me..."
Lian Youyou looked at him calmly, blinked, raised her face, rolled her eyes like a witch outside, lowered her face and muttered to herself: "They have finished their work, I should go out."
Lu Jingting's expression froze slightly. He slowly raised his face, and suddenly knelt in front of Lian Youyou with a plop: "Save me... Save me... Please... Please--" He stretched out his hand to grab Lian Youyou's skirt, but withdrew his hand in deep disgust at his own filthiness, and kowtowed to Lian Youyou repeatedly.
Lian Youyou's face still had no expression: "I don't care about the affairs of the world."
Lu Jingting was stunned and crawled on the ground in a daze: "Then... what are you doing here?"
"It's rare for those guys at the Nine Gates to level up. They encounter an evildoer of your level, so they use you as a training ground~~" Lian Youyou crossed her arms and stretched out her fingers to pick her ears out of boredom. "Stories like yours happen every year. What you're experiencing is exactly what someone else is experiencing right now. Tsk, those lazy people in the Fate Department are too lazy to write new plots, so they just use all the old routines, just like those people who like to copy books."
Lu Jingting listened dully, the confusion on his face slowly turned into resentment. He hated her more and more, and suddenly raised his face and pounced on Lian Youyou: "Then I will drag you to die with me--" (To be continued)
