Bulwark of Light

Chapter 865 He is still alive
Li Qingsui came to the Temple Mountain.

This place was already lonely, but after Li Qingci passed away, it became even more desolate and lonely.

A ray of light greeted the shrine mountain, and the cloud no longer shrouded the disaster dome, but revealed a ray of sky.

When the last protector of Shenci Mountain died, the place finally ushered in the light.

However, the crisis of the shrine has not been completely resolved, there are still countless black flowers blooming in the mountains and fields.

"It's all gone... gone..."

Li Qingsui squatted on the top of the mountain, hugged her knees, looked at the flowerbed left by her sister, and murmured softly.

When she returned to the shrine, she was no longer the head of the Li family who held the power of life and death in the outside world.

At this moment, she looks like an ordinary little girl.

In fact it is.

It will be another two years before she turns eighteen.

According to the traditional customs of Nagano Li, when coming of age ceremony, one's most important and cherished "relatives" and "teachers" are usually invited to be present.Li Qingsui thought about the cheerful scene of her coming-of-age ceremony in her heart a long time ago. She thought that if it was not convenient for her sister to leave the shrine mountain at that time, then her coming-of-age ceremony would be held in the mountain. The backbones all called out.

Of course, Gu Shen will also be present.

Only later, she seemed to grow up overnight.

Those unrealistic fantasies never came to her dreams again.

The wind blows quietly, and the top of the mountain is completely silent.

Li Qingsui enjoyed this rare tranquility to himself, but he didn't feel relaxed.

She stretched out her finger and gently touched the little white flower on the edge of the flowerbed.

After my sister left, the flowers in this flower garden are still growing gratifyingly. Maybe what my sister said is right. After the light is ushered in, the shrine no longer needs the so-called protectors.

It's just that there are black flowers all over the mountain, who else has the ability to erase them except Gu Shen?
The guy my sister spent ten years waiting for is dead.

There is no one here anymore.

Think about this.

"Whoa..."

There was a sudden noise from the water well in front of the ancient house on the top of the shrine. Li Qingsui suddenly turned her head and saw dozens of golden threads whizzing past in the void. Flying into the ancient well, she couldn't help but exclaimed. In the water mist, a slender figure surprised heaven and man, and slowly stood up while supporting the ancient well.

That figure is so beautiful that people dare not look at it more.

Li Qingsui turned his head quickly, for fear that he would desecrate the goddess in the mist.

After a while, the sound of putting on a robe behind him ended.

A voice with a cold tone but a gentle tone sounded immediately.

"Qingsui, you have come to the shrine."

Li Qingsui hummed softly, she actually forgot that besides her sister and Gu Shen, there was a third person on this mountain.

But...Miss Chu Ling should not be considered a "person".

"Sister Goddess, today is the day you came into the world?"

Li Qingsui looked back and looked at the red and white goddess costume, and couldn't help but feel swayed. No matter how many times he looked at it, he would feel that Chu Ling had a beauty beyond the world, which was not an aura that ordinary people could possess.

The word "goddess" is very appropriate.

"Not really."

Chu Ling also came to the flower garden. She squatted beside Li Qingsui, stretched out her hand to caress the swaying white flowers, and said, "I could have 'come into the world' a long time ago, but I have been waiting for him, I want to wait for him Come back from the Sangzhou Grotto and perform the 'Incarnation', so that we can meet each other exactly."

He... Gu Shen.

Li Qingsui's heart trembled.

Li Qingsui didn't know the secret of the Ancient Literature Society, nor did he know that Chu Ling and Gu Shen had a deeper and more intimate spiritual connection.

She hesitated again and again, and asked cautiously: "The matter about the Sangzhou Grotto..."

"I already know."

Chu Ling's answer was very calm.

She lowered her eyebrows, thought for a while, and said, "Gu Shen is dead."

Li Qingsui looked at the goddess in front of him, feeling a little strange.

She knows the relationship between the goddess sister and Gu Shen...

There are countless people in this world who are saddened by Gu Shen's death, but at this moment, the goddess sister doesn't seem to have much sadness or pain on her face?

"You seem surprised?"

Chu Ling smiled in a low voice, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Because I didn't show sadness, sadness?"

"……Yes."

Li Qingsui stared blankly at the goddess who got up again.

The flower garden on the top of the mountain was very quiet. At this moment, Li Qingsui thought of herself when she attended her sister's funeral. She lost the most important person in her life, but she didn't shed a single tear.

Perhaps at that time, she also looked like this in the eyes of the elders of the Li family.

Sadness, sadness, pain... Emotions like these don't have to be shown on the face.

th.

"I'm also curious why I didn't even shed a single tear."

"Actually, I'm very sad."

"But... I can't make a sad expression."

"Maybe it's because of what else I can do now..."

"It's not easy to come to the world once. I only have a few days of light, so I can't waste time on things like sadness."

Chu Ling took out the Yan Mo umbrella placed on the side of the ancient house of the shrine, opened and closed it twice, hung it around his waist as a saber, and picked a few black flowers, pinning it between his hair.

After doing this, she stood before the steps on the top of the mountain.

Chu Ling looked back at the little girl who had grown up a bit, but not fully grown up, and said softly, "Regarding Gu Shen's death, what do I want to do...while I'm still 'alive'."

……

……

When Chu Ling left Shenci Mountain, the first place he went was Qingzuka.

She is the guardian of the mausoleum for this term, and the pattern in Qingzhong Cemetery will naturally not block her in any way.

At this moment, Bai Shu, who was sitting in Neiling, also removed the glow of the Golden God Realm, and met Chu Ling in person.

Chu Ling slowly entered the inner mausoleum, and she saw a figure sitting withered facing the wall in the Golden God Realm, it was none other than Song Ci.

Song Ci had disappeared from the public eye for a long time.

Only few people know about it.

The crows in Dadu are actually meditating in the Golden God Realm under the Nagano Battle Seat.

At this moment, a ray of the triple divine light split out and shrouded Song Ci's body... Most of the apostle's blessed light that this [undead] emitted from his body also dissipated under the warm nourishment of Dou Zhan God's Domain, but Some iron laws cannot be changed. Once you have touched a certain fire and signed a contract with it, you will not be accepted by the second fire for life.

In other words.

No matter how hard Bai Shu tried to cultivate Song Ci, it was impossible for Song Ci to become the apostle of Dou Zhan, and he would not be able to carry the God of Dou Zhan.

The ray of war god light lingering on his body now cannot be taken out of Nagano, and may not even be taken out of the cemetery.

"You're here."

At the end of the Golden God's Domain, there is a figure with triple avatars constantly overlapping and changing, sometimes old, sometimes young.

"Mr. Bai Shu, you should know why I came here."

Chu Ling raised his head.

"I know. You want to ask me... is Gu Shen dead?"

Bai Shu smiled: "You are not the first person to confront God directly about this matter."

Chu Ling raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.

I'm not the first one?
It is true that there are countless people in this world who want to know the truth about "Gu Shen's death"...but there are only a few of them who are really capable of meeting God.

Who else but myself?

She looked in the direction of Song Ci's retreat, and the figure of the crow in meditation was like a dry stone. His body was covered with layers of golden dust, and it didn't look like he had moved recently.

"not him."

Bai Shu said indifferently: "Song Yingji has been in the Divine Realm for a hundred days, and for a whole hundred days, he has not heard a single noise from the outside world, and he doesn't know anything that happened outside... This matter is no exception. .”

"It's a silly boy from Central City."

Before Chu Ling could speak, Bai Shu gave the answer.

Central City?
Because of Gu Shen's death, there is only one person who has the ability and status to meet the queen in the attic regardless of the cost.

Lin Lin.

"So Gu Shen is dead?"

Chu Ling stood in the divine realm shrouded by the golden glow, she didn't say any more nonsense, and went straight to the point.

And Bai Shu's answer was also very straightforward.

"No."

Two words.

These two words instantly dispelled the gloom in Chu Ling's heart.

"He is the future Pluto, how could Pluto fall so easily?"

Bai Shu smiled lightly and said, "With me and Lin Lei staring at the Sangzhou Grotto, if Gu Shen were to die right now... how will the future plan of 'Fighting the Gods' be carried out?"

This plan is no secret to Chu Ling.

Bai Shu knew that Chu Ling knew all of this.

When he spoke to Gu Shen, he didn't intend to keep it from Chu Ling.

Because... Chu Ling is also part of the plan.

"..."

Chu Ling narrowed her eyes. She chewed over and over what Bai Shu said just now, and the more she listened, the more she felt that there seemed to be a second meaning.

After she came into the world, she regained the right to initiate divination, but every link of cause and effect of "Gu Shen's death" was covered by tons of fog, making it impossible to see clearly.

Obviously, this accident was related to "Tinder" from beginning to end.

It is likely that more than one God Throne intervened.

"Gu Shen is not dead, but everyone thinks he is dead. The Gu Clan Hall even took out the 'Blood Tablet' to verify his dissipated spirit in front of the five great families and the three great institutes..."

Chu Ling frowned, and she recalled the information circulating in the outside world at this moment.

All this information proved that Gu Shen was indeed dead.

And these news...

It was what Bai Shu and Lin Lei released.

They hope Wuzhou thinks so, if everyone thinks that Gu Shen is dead, then this is the best ending.

"Besides Lin Lin, there are other people who met the god seat... Gu Nanfeng? Is the blood tablet forged?"

Chu Ling's eyes suddenly lit up with a glow.

Under the intervention of the divine power of [Backflow], Bai Shu's image at the moment turned into an immature boy.

"good."

He had a faint smile on his face, "But it can't be said to be a forgery. After all, I can extract the blood that Xiao Gu left in this cemetery at will in the [Backflow] God's Domain, so what the five people saw, that It's indeed his blood. It's just that there's never been such a thing as a 'blood stele', and Gu Shen didn't leave any of these in the Gu Clan Hall, you should know this better than me."

【Source code】It maintains a 24-hour spiritual link with the host.

But Chu Ling's way of thinking is to calculate probabilities.

After Gu Shen entered the disaster environment that blocked the spiritual link, the [source code] would lose the link... She thought that the "Blood Tablet" might have been left at that time, but thinking about it carefully, this is indeed a loophole, a world that cannot found, but she can easily break through the loopholes.

"why?"

Chu Ling was a little puzzled: "You want everyone to think that 'Gu Shen is dead'...what good is that?"

Baizhu did not directly answer this question.

Instead, a rhetorical question was thrown.

"If everyone thinks that Gu Shen is alive, then... what good is it for Dong Zhou?"

Chu Ling was taken aback.

As the [source code] left behind by Mr. Turing, her mission is to help Gu Shen survive, so all the choices, arrangements, and plans she made... are all to make Gu Shen live longer and more beautifully. In the long run, in order to become stronger in the future.

It was only Bai Shu's words that woke her up.

The situation in Wuzhou became more and more tense, and Pluto's identity could no longer be concealed.

As long as Gu Shen is "alive", he will attract a lot of attention, the four god envoys, the son of blessing, and the next one is the top title of the major forces in the five continents, the apostle!

For Pluto, "being alive" is not a good thing.

"You see, sometimes 'death' is not a bad thing." Seeing that Chu Ling fell silent, Bai Shu knew that she had understood, so she smiled slightly: "Gu Shen needs time too much. But as long as he lives, In the public eye, he will not have time... The Tower of Origin, the City of Light, and the Church of the Storm are all staring at him. At that time, there will be endless pressure and killing intentions coming to him, and these killing intentions have accumulated If there are too many, it will overwhelm him, and the day when the Pluto fire seed appears in the world is the moment when the battle of gods will break out, how long do you think it will take for the living Gu Shen to bear the weight of this fire seed?"

"So, you arranged for him to die in the 'flame' that erupted from Tan Yao?"

Chu Ling still couldn't understand.

How did Gu Shen end up buried in Tan Yao's underground?

"No, I didn't arrange this."

Bai Shu said calmly: "You have to be clear, I am just a martial artist, and I only want to be a martial artist. Others are planning these things. What I have done can only be regarded as cooperation. The one who took over the fire from Gu Changzhi One day, I will know what my mission is, and I am waiting for the real battle of gods to start, and then, not for the common people, but only for myself, I will be able to fight heartily."

He was pure from beginning to end.

20 years ago.

Bai Shu resolutely chose "Fighting Fire Seed", even if he didn't succeed, he never turned to contact other fire seed powers.

Now, in the cemetery, blending with the fire of fighting and fighting, his aura became sharper and more unstoppable!

"but……"

"There is one thing I can tell you clearly, since you have come to the world, you should 'live' well, cherish this few time, and don't try to find the real truth."

Bai Shu looked at Chu Ling, and gave a warning with earnestness: "The cause and effect involved in the Sangzhou Grotto is too long, even I can't see it clearly. With your current divination skills, even if you exhaust all the life of this body, You can't see through a little bit of haze...you can't get anything."

Chu Ling was silent for a moment, and said, "Thank you for reminding me."

She turned around and was about to leave the Golden God Realm.

Bai Shu suddenly said, "If someone asks, you know what to say, right?"

The woman in the red and white goddess costume had no sadness or joy on her face, it was like that the moment she came into the world, and it was also like that when she learned that Gu Shen was still alive...

This reaction reassured Bai Shu.

If someone asks, the answer doesn't really matter.

The important thing is the expression of the person involved, as well as the subtle fluctuations in the spirit. On this point, Chu Ling has done a good job, she is like an emotionless machine.

The reason why Bai Shu mentioned Lin Lin earlier was to use "silly boy" instead.

It was because Lin Lin did a poor job in this regard.

Because the performance of the two is different, the answers they get are also different.

Bai Shu chose to tell Chu Ling the truth.

On the other side...the queen gave her brother a white lie.

"Don't worry."

At the end of God's Domain, Chu Ling paused, and said with a blank expression: "Lying is a compulsory course for AI."
