Strange Gentlemen

Chapter 24: 23 Devour

Views:

The god held Luo Yu'an in his arms, floated to the shrine, and gently put her down.

At this moment, Ujigami looked like an unhappy man who was woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night to work.

Luo Yu'an said nothing, retreated into the shrine, and watched the situation outside through the gap in the curtain. The two clan gods did not have a friendly pre-war meeting, nor did they swear at each other. Both sides fought decisively.

Almost in an instant, Luo Yu'an saw that the gap was filled with red lines, which were constantly crisscrossed layer by layer, and the Liang God was emitting a faint light all over his body, like the rising sun, and bits of golden light overflowed from his body and floated freely in the gaps between the red lines.

When these light spots hit the red line and wrap around it, the red line will quickly burn.

Under Luo Yu'an's filter, even Qin Shishen became a weak man in need of protection in her heart, and these beautiful red lines naturally became "fragile" lines. She seemed to have forgotten how this strange line cut several people alive in front of her when they first met. She only remembered how they were tied into a bow in her hands. Seeing the red line burning, she took two steps forward anxiously.

But in just a moment, the flames went out, because thick blood flowed out of the red line and swallowed up the flames. The blood dripping from the red line stretched and turned into another red line, weaving the "net" even tighter.

Unfortunately, a line is still a line, there are always gaps, and the scattered light spots on the Liang family god are too small, so most of them are blocked, but a small part can still float out, passing through the red line and floating to other places. Two light spots flew into the shrine from the curtain. Luo Yu'an took a look and felt that the light spots looked like catkins flying in the wind.

Guessing that it would be dangerous to get on top of these things, she took two steps back to avoid them. A red thread came through the gap in the curtain, and it shot towards the two points of light, sticking to them and engulfing them with blood. Luo Yu'an saw a little bit of black on the red thread, and unconsciously reached out her hand. The red thread naturally came up, hooked her finger, turned a circle, and then slowly retreated.

Then the shrine was wrapped more tightly and she could no longer see what was happening outside.

It seemed like something else was burning outside. Luo Yu'an smelled the faint burnt smell, took out his cell phone and called Ming Huang.

Ming Huang had just fallen asleep when he answered the phone and asked dazedly, "Hmm? Sister An?"

Luo Yu'an: "Ming Huang, wake up, have someone get up and get a fire extinguisher to put out the fire. There is a Liang family god in the shrine that is setting the fire."

This was really terrible news. Ming Huang was a little confused after hearing it. After a lot of effort, she finally understood what happened. She quickly got up and walked out in her pajamas. She lived very close to the shrine. As soon as she went out, she saw that there were indeed dots of light flying in the courtyard of the clan god. Wherever the light fell, it was burned and smoke came out.

She let out a low cry, and then heard Sister An on the phone admonishing, "It's a little dangerous inside, you guys stay outside and don't come in, it's best to stay away, and put out any sparks with a fire extinguisher, don't burn the house down."

Hearing her calm voice, Ming Huang also calmed down and rang the bell to wake everyone up. Everyone followed the instructions and took up their fire extinguishers and stood ready.

"Inside, the Liang god and our god are fighting each other?" Ming Hui held the fire extinguisher given to her in disbelief.

"Of course, Sister An said it, how could it be false?" Ming Huang said.

"These lights are caused by the Liang family gods... Isn't it a bit strange that we are using fire extinguishers to deal with them?"

In fact, Ming Huang also felt strange at first, but she was quickly convinced by Luo Yu'an. If there is a fire, you must use a fire extinguisher. The old house is in the forest. If a forest fire occurs, it is not a joke! This is a very serious matter.

The fire extinguisher was indeed useful. Those spots of light flew out from the shrine yard and ignited anything. As long as they came into contact with open flames, they would be quickly put out by the Qin family members in the old house with fire extinguishers. The only regret was that some spots of light fell on the surrounding buildings and burned some charred marks.

Ming Huang looked distressed and said, "Alas, it's time to find someone to repair the old house."

Ming Hui's thoughts were also diverted by her, "It's just right to power up the shrine."

"Are you here specially to burn my house?" The Qin family god floated on the red line, with dense red lines on his sleeves and under his robe. Not far in front of him, there was a human-like Liang family god. As light continued to emanate from his body, his body slowly turned into the appearance of a broken stone statue, and was almost covered with red lines.

He said, "I am about to be devoured. Of course, the loss caused by the loss of my power before I die should be borne by you."

This was why he had offered himself to come to the door, he couldn't burn down his own house in the end. At this last moment, the conversation between the two was still ordinary and calm, without any trace of anger.

"well-"

"Qin clan, extinction is the fate of clan gods, you will end up like us—"

The Liang God sighed, and his body froze completely. The red lines wrapped around the stone statue kept crisscrossing, crushing the petrified statue.

At the moment of being crushed, majestic light suddenly gushed out from the broken statue, illuminating the entire shrine courtyard. Even the darkness seemed to be dispelled by the light, and the bright rays of the rising sun appeared in advance. Everything that was illuminated by the light at a close distance suddenly began to burn.

Everyone waiting outside the courtyard saw the light, their eyes were stung by the strong light, and they hurriedly covered their burning and tearful eyes, not daring to look again.

Countless red lines also burned, and the white god in the center of the red lines was buffeted by the flames and heat, like a moth in the flames, but he was not burned by the fire. Instead, he waved his long sleeves, and overwhelming red lines emerged from his body, completely wrapping up the strong light, trying to swallow up all the explosive power.

Everything happened extremely quickly. A strong light burst out, and was immediately covered by red. It only took two or three seconds. But in this short period of time, inside the shrine courtyard, except for the shrine wrapped in red lines, everything else was burned black.

"Is this... the end?" Ming Huang outside the yard barely opened his stinging eyes and asked while holding a fire extinguisher.

Luo Yu'an stood quietly in the shrine and listened to the noise outside. She felt that her eyes were bright for a moment, then darkened again. Then the red line covering the shrine retreated. She knew that it must be over.

She took two steps forward and pulled aside the curtain. She saw Ujigami standing in the courtyard with his black hair loose. There were a lot of red threads hanging from his sleeves and under his feet, scattered around him in a mess. His face—it was not a face, but a raised mask, majestic and rigid, with the raised part inseparable from the edge of his cheek, and a crack on the mask.

Luo Yu'an felt that she must have gone crazy. When she saw such a strange god, her first feeling was not fear. She jumped down the corridor without thinking.

“Second brother!”

Her feet went soft, and she didn't know when those red lines started to wriggle towards her. She stepped on them. The feeling was so weird, as if she was stepping on a bunch of tangled insects.

Ujigami, who was standing quietly in the yard, looked at her and raised his sleeves.

Luo Yu'an rushed over, but what caught her was not her hands, but those red threads that seemed to have life. It was more like they were wrapped around her waist than supporting her.

Luo Yu'an only had time to call out "Second Brother" before she felt the wind whirring in her ears, and instantly entered the shrine from outside. The clan god dragging countless squirming red threads suddenly swelled up, and disintegrated into a ball of red threads on her body, leaving only a white dress in her arms. Then, the red threads wrapped her and the clothes layer by layer.

It's like turning into a cocoon.

She knew that every time the clan god absorbed power, he would form a cocoon. She had encountered one once and was bold enough to hide next to the cocoon to avoid the search of the clan women. But she never expected that one day she would be wrapped in the cocoon. It was really a terrifying experience.

The red cocoon was very narrow, and as she moved, the red lines would expand and contract like breathing. Luo Yu'an was panicked for only a moment before she calmed down and reached out to touch the red lines. She curled up in white clothes and felt that the red contracting cocoon was like a heart.

She could not hear any sound from outside, only the beating of this "heart". She hugged the soft white clothes tightly, and found something round inside. She opened the clothes and looked inside. It was a small ball made of red lines. The ball beat with the breathing of the huge heart outside.

Luo Yu'an intuitively felt that there was a clan god inside the small ball.

It grew slowly, and when it grew to the size of an embrace, the ball of red thread spread out, revealing a jade-like little baby.

Luo Yu'an, who was holding the child, suddenly said: "...Ah."

I couldn't bring myself to call this little kid "Second brother".

His eyes never opened. He grew from a child who leaned against her chest obediently to a child half the height of a man, and then to a slender and thin boy. He grew up little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye. Luo Yu'an didn't know how much time had passed outside. Was it about two days? Or three days? She could only clearly feel the growth of Shi Shen.

Finally, he was taller than her and became a beautiful young man. The positions of the two people in the cocoon were completely reversed, from her holding him to him holding her.

Luo Yu'an didn't dare to move at all, because the loose white robe that Shi Shen was wearing was covering them, and Shi Shen was now in a newborn state...

She couldn't move her hands, or she would look like a hooligan. She couldn't look around, so she had to keep looking at his face. His face became the gentle one she was familiar with. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, as if he was smiling.

This body, which appeared out of nowhere, was flawless, cold to the touch, with no beating heart in its chest, and no pulsation of blood flowing through its wrists and neck.

But everything that is needed is there.

The space was small, and the two of them were very close to each other. Somehow, Luo Yu'an was squeezed into the arms of Shi Shen. Although she didn't see it, her legs felt it.

I really didn't know I had such a fetish before. Luo Yu'an leaned on the chest of the body of the god, smelling the faint fragrance, and thought shamefully, why do I have such a strong feeling for a body like a puppet statue? Maybe no one will be like me.

As she was thinking, she noticed a slight cracking sound beside her ears. She looked up and saw a long crack suddenly appearing on Shishen's white chest as if he had been hit by someone.

Snap—

The crack expanded rapidly, and its shape and size were exactly the same as the ones she had seen before. Another crack appeared on Ujigami's chest, and this crack would not disappear with each of his transformations.

What on earth is going on with this gap

Luo Yu'an's hand brushed across the edge of the crack, and she lowered her head and gently kissed the crack with soothing and tenderness. As she moved, the area around the crack seemed to be dyed with red paint, and slowly a bright red color appeared.
