At the end of the day, the rooster crowed, and it was still dark in Misty Lake, and the funeral procession gathered.
The Jin family is a small aristocratic family that has lived in Misty Lake for generations. They are quite popular in the local area, and they are generous in their actions. The funeral procession stretches for several miles.
Tied with a white cloth on his arms, Xiao Xiao squeezed into the team and said to Xiao Da: "Brother, Miss Lu is going to watch the night, will something happen?"
Xiaoda scratched his head: "Probably not? Miss Lu is a warrior! And she came here on a horse, so she must be very powerful."
"But," Xiaoxiao muttered, "Ms. Lu is a girl after all..."
Those who will sign up for the night vigil are almost all warriors, and they are the ones who said about the ghost. No matter how powerful Miss Lu is, she is still a girl, how can she compare with those rough old men who are full of blood
Xiao Dao: "Warriors are different from us. What they look at is realm and strength, and it has nothing to do with men and women."
"Oh… "
All the way, blowing and beating, playing dirge and music, to the big black tree.
The mage who presided over the funeral recited the ancient sacrificial rites, and the descendants knelt down on the ground. The corpse wrapped in a white cloth was placed on a stretcher and carried by four strong men into the big black tree. Then there's the night watchman.
Lu Mingshu followed into the big black tree.
Each family has a fixed burial place. Under the leadership of the mage, they walked around and finally reached a branch.
After sending the body in and putting it away, the mage pointed to the nine lamps and said, "You have to be careful, don't let the soul-inducing lamp go out."
"Yes." The leader of the night watch responded respectfully.
The sorcerer looked at Lu Mingshu, among the rough men, she was a young girl who was particularly conspicuous.
Originally, the night watchmen did not recruit women. This is not only hard work, but also requires courage. But this is a martial artist, the housekeeper said, it should be a fusion realm, probably some Xuanmen disciple, who was curious and came to experience it specially, right
The mage bowed to her: "Please."
This is also good, there is a Fusion Realm here, it must be safe and sound.
The mage went out with the body bearer. There was a noisy sacrifice outside, and then they dispersed.
Nine night watchmen were left behind, guarding the soul-inducing lamp in the dark tree.
Not being able to speak is the rule of the night watch, so as not to disturb the dead souls inside.
This was not difficult for Lu Mingshu, she sat cross-legged on the spot, closed her eyes and adjusted her breath.
The other night watchmen are all low-level fighters, only the leader is an inner breath, and dare not disturb her.
Time passed bit by bit.
It's night.
The yin qi became stronger, and occasionally there was a whining sound, which sounded like a ghost crying.
The others couldn't sit still. Seeing that Lu Mingshu couldn't sit still, he calmed down again.
After staying up in the middle of the night, the sound of cock crowing came from outside, and the night watchman, who had been tense all the time, slowly recovered and fell asleep in batches.
It went on like this for several days.
There is no fire in the big black tree, they can only eat dry food and drink cold water, and Chu Gong must go to a specific place.
Only Lu Mingshu didn't move from the beginning to the end.
This can't help but make them curious, so the Fusion Realm can go without eating for such a long time
On the night of the seventh day, the atmosphere became much more relaxed. Six days have passed, and as long as they survive the last day, they will end the mission and go to get a big red envelope.
A few of them were still chatting quietly, no longer afraid of the atmosphere here.
At this time, Lu Mingshu suddenly opened his eyes.
The night watchman, who was speaking in a low voice, was startled by her. This girl hasn't moved for six days, I thought she couldn't move!
"Girl, what's the matter?" the leader asked cautiously.
With a soft cry, a ray of light flew out from her sleeve and turned into a sharp sword.
The leader was taken aback: "Gu, girl..."
Lu Mingshu didn't say anything, raised his sword and swiped, the sword light flashed, leaving a scratch on the ground. She said: "From now on, you stay in this circle and don't go out."
The others were stunned.
"You can't go out even if you are a gong, you know?" She emphasized again, "When the cock crows outside, you finish the night watch and go out directly without looking back."
"Girl, what happened?" The leader was startled by her solemn tone.
"Listen to me, and nothing will happen." She stood up and walked out.
"girl!"
Lu Mingshu added: "Even if I don't come back, don't worry about it, just tell the Jin family."
Then, he raised his sword and left.
Several night watchmen looked at each other.
After a while, one of them said: "This girl, didn't you mean to scare us?"
The leader glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense, this girl is a master!"
"But, obviously nothing happened!"
"Don't talk too much, just do it!"
Speaking of which, it's a lot colder tonight! The leader rubbed his arms.
Holding the sword, Lu Mingshu walked down without a sound.
After seven nights of guarding in the big black tree, she finally discovered the abnormality.
For the whole six days, others saw her motionless, but in fact she never relaxed for a moment, and she was always sensing the ups and downs of the yin energy in the big black tree.
Today, she suddenly discovered that under the big black tree, the Yin Qi became vigorous, as if it had been opened up somewhere.
This is an abnormality that she didn't notice when she came to explore the road a few times before.
Here it is.
Lu Mingshu stopped in front of a fork.
This is also a tomb, and there are three corpses in it, all of which are almost rotten, leaving only a pile of scattered bones.
She pushed aside the bones and continued walking inside.
This fork is very wide and can accommodate two people in parallel. Going further and further down, she finally stopped in front of a hole.
Looking down from the entrance of the cave, it was pitch black, nothing could be seen, and the spiritual consciousness could not extend inside.
She took a stone and threw it down.
There was no response for a long while.
After pondering for a while, Lu Mingshu jumped directly, and jumped down from the hole.
Instead of standing and guessing, why not take a look below, the Yin Qi comes from this place, it is absolutely true.
The body fell, unable to step on the ground.
She took out the night pearl, but nothing could be illuminated.
Suddenly, something bumped over, and the cold feeling hit my heart.
Lu Mingshu frowned, and said two words softly: "Yin soldiers?"
No, it should be said to be the soul body. If the bones above are mutated, they are Yin soldiers. These have no bodies, just soul bodies.
In other words, this place is also a gathering place for Yin, just like Yinshan Mountain.
Strange.
With that in mind, he stepped on the ground.
She was finally able to survey her surroundings.
Under the faint light of the night pearl, what you see are patches of red rocks, which are so red that people are shocked, and there are clusters of black air entwined.
Sure enough, this place, like Yinshan Mountain, has become a place for gathering Yin—no, or Yinjie.
Strange, how can there be two underworlds? Logically speaking, a world can only give birth to a Yin world.
—Wait, could it be that this is the same underworld as the one under the Yinshan Mountain
