Once, when Guo Changcheng fell in love with Chu Shuzhi on borrowed love, he had a dream.In the dream, there was a tree growing outside the window, and he had been silently watching that touch of greenery, from sprouting to seeing it grow into lush greenery, but he never came close to take a look at it.
Finally one day, he pushed open the door, walked under the tree, touched the rough trunk for the first time, looked up at the mottled shadow of the tree, and then leaned under the tree and took a nap.
As if it was done like that a long time ago.
On the night when I came back from the temple fair, the lush greenness fell into a dream again after a long absence.Only this time, all the green trees have turned into pale white flowers, the petals are fluttering in the air as the breeze blows, and the falling snow turns white.
It turned out that this was a crabapple.
There was another person standing under the tree.The man was dressed in an ancient black gown, with a tall and slender back. He was bending over to water the soil under the tree, and some white petals fell on his shoulders.
As he got closer, the man turned his head.The facial features are sharp, the expression is indifferent, but the peach blossom eyes seem to be affectionate.
...Brother Chu?
"You're here." The man said, put down the water basket in his hand, and looked at him quietly.
……I am coming? ...are you waiting for me...have you been waiting long?
The man came to him and handed him a branch of crabapple with flower buds.He took it suspiciously, and the moment he touched the branch, the unopened buds bloomed slowly, full of snow.
The man's originally quiet and indifferent expression was stained with a smile, and he said softly: "Now I should go."
……Walk? ……Where are you going?
The man didn't answer him, the dark and deserted figure gradually drifted away, only the begonias full of trees were still floating on his shoulders.
Looking at his back, Guo Changcheng felt an inexplicable panic, as if if he didn't stop him, that person would never come back.
...don't go, don't go.
So he desperately chased after him, but no matter how he ran, he couldn't get close. In the end, the shadow of the man completely disappeared from his field of vision.
Then Guo Changcheng woke up, and it was still dark outside the window.He subconsciously touched the hat on his pillow, lay there staring for a while, sighed and got out of bed.
He was still worried about that person, he had to go and see to make sure he was still asleep.
When Guo Changcheng opened the door of Chu Shuzhi's room, he was a little guilty. He thought that he was always so nervous, and he would probably be scolded by Brother Chu again.
However, his blood froze in the next second.The room was empty, without a trace of familiar smell.
The drowsiness was swept away, Guo Changcheng staggered back to the living room and turned on the light, only to see the puppet doll he gave to Chu Shuzhi during the day on the coffee table, and there was a note next to it.
'I'm going to do something, don't run around, wait for Chu Zhao and the others to come. '
Guo Changcheng hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed Chu Shuzhi's number, the cold shutdown prompt made his heart sink.The faint uneasiness in the past two days seems to be pouring out like a flood at this moment. He intuitively feels that Chu Shuzhi is not as simple as going out to do some errands. Looking forward to Chu Shuzhi's return.
Guo Changcheng didn't even bother to tidy up, grabbed his satchel and rushed out the door.At this time, the puppet doll lying quietly on the coffee table moved suddenly, and a flash of light flashed out from the bag in the doll's hand, and flew straight to the door.Guo Changcheng, who was about to close the doorknob, felt that he was bounced back by a strong force, and sat down on the ground.
Looking up, he was dumbfounded.A bone puppet as tall as a grown man stood firmly at the door, blocking his way.

At this time, the southwest suburbs more than ten kilometers away.
A man in black stood in front of the old temple.The moonlight was hidden by thin clouds, and the forest was extremely dark. The man didn't turn on the flashlight, and his whole body was hidden in the darkness, like a ghost in the dark night.
He seemed to sense who was coming, and something in the depths of the temple began to be restless. The originally dead forest reverberated with indistinct mourning and creepy sighs.
You are here, you are here...
Chu Shuzhi looked calm and calm, and said lightly, um, I'm here, as if responding to that voice.
He went to the side and broke off a branch, retreated a hundred meters away from the temple gate, raised his hand and casually scratched a deep gash on his left arm, bleeding profusely in an instant, but he didn't know much about it. care.Chu Shuzhi let the blood flow down the branch, and soon the whole branch was dyed black and red.
He was muttering something while drawing blood-stained branches across the ground. He walked around the old temple unhurriedly. The places he passed by were all shining with golden light, as if standing on the ground. A transparent wall.In the end, it formed a huge pale golden circle.
That is a barrier.
He returned to the place where the line was originally drawn, inserted the blood-stained branch into the ground, and ignited a spell, accompanied by sparks soaring into the sky, he said in a deep voice.
"Blood is the matchmaker, the soul is the bait, and this enchantment is set up. Except for the blood and the soul, no living soul can enter, and the dead cannot exit. The curse of inexhaustible blood will not stop, and the curse will not be removed until the soul is extinct."
As the words fell, a beam of strong golden light surrounded him, and then he slowly stepped into the barrier, and his figure disappeared into the old temple.The ghostly chirping that drifted away was also cut off, and a dead silence was restored outside the barrier, and the forest was silent.

in the hotel.
One person and one bone have been confronted for half an hour.The last time Guo Changcheng saw such a big bone puppet was when he and Chu Shuzhi were collecting living souls together and met a bunch of ghost animals before the Soul Relief Lamp was rekindled.
This kind of puppet is so powerful that it can break the neck of a secluded animal with one hand.
Guo Changcheng knew that Chu Shuzhi was determined not to let him go out this time.The bone puppet leaned against the door with its arms folded, looking condescending.Guo Changcheng tried various methods to bypass it, but failed.Those who come softly will be pulled aside impatiently, and those who come hard will be kicked back to the sofa.Guo Changcheng wanted to cry but had no tears, and even began to reason with the puppet.
"Brother, please let me go, I really have to go to Brother Chu, your master may be in danger."
The bone picked out his ears, although he didn't have ears.Guo Changcheng felt that if it had eyes, it must be rolling its eyes now.It seems to be saying, my master is in danger and it's not up to you to save him, weak chicken.
After failing the hundredth battle, Guo Changcheng finally sat back on the sofa dejectedly.Frustrated, he called Zhao Yunlan.
It was Shen Wei who answered the phone: "Xiao Guo, what happened, calling so late? Our plane will arrive early tomorrow morning."
Guo Changcheng said weakly: "Master, come and help me. Brother Chu left a note and left alone, and left a big puppet to prevent me from going out. I think... something will happen to him."
The other end of the phone paused for a while, and then spoke with a more dignified voice. "Xiao Guo, don't worry, I'll call Yunlan to answer the phone, and we'll be there right away."
Guo Changcheng felt physically and mentally exhausted, and nodded mechanically. He didn't even realize that the other side couldn't see him nodding.Anxious, worried, and helpless, Guo Changcheng held the phone in one hand, bent his legs and shrank to the sofa, and buried his head in his knees in depression.
A bony hand touched his head.He looked up at the puppet in frustration, with a resentful look on his face.The bone puppet stood in front of the sofa and looked down at him. After hesitating for a moment, he scraped his face with his thumb, then bent his fingertips and squeezed it twice, as if to express comfort.
Guo Changcheng's eyes widened bit by bit, staring at it in disbelief.There is only one person who has some unique little habits when pinching his face, and he will never admit it wrong.
The other end of the phone has been replaced by Zhao Yunlan, chattering something, Guo Changcheng didn't listen to a word, he re-examined it up and down like seeing this puppet for the first time.Why didn't he realize just now that this puppet's height, frame, movement, and demeanor are clearly... exactly the same as that person.
"Zhao Chu," Guo Changcheng stared at the puppet, interrupting Zhao Yunlan who was still talking, "Have you ever seen Brother Chu use a bone puppet that is exactly like himself?"
Zhao Yunlan was also stunned for a while, hesitantly said: "The puppet is exactly the same, you can't be talking about his real bones..."
Guo Changcheng listened to Zhao Yunlan's explanation over there, and the blood on his face had faded at the end.The corpse's own bones are called original bones.Corpse Taoists are good at manipulating white bones as puppets for battle, and taking out a few of their own bones, they can naturally be made into puppets.It's just that the original bone is connected to the soul, and it is a part of the lifeblood of the corpse Taoist. If he leaves the body for too long, it will damage his own soul, and there is even the risk of being wiped out. Therefore, no corpse Taoist has ever used his own bone as a puppet.
Unless, he had planned to be wiped out.
Guo Changcheng remained silent, Zhao Yunlan was a little anxious on the other side: "Xiao Guo? Xiao Guo, are you still listening? Wait for us, we will be there in a while!"
Guo Changcheng silently hung up the phone.The scenes of the past few days were played back in front of his eyes, the nightmare that made Chu Shuzhi cry, his bloodshot pupils, his unusual fragility, and the gentle pampering that accompanied him all day today.
He was indulging in the gentleness of that person, so he didn't realize that when Chu Shuzhi hugged him gently through the bear doll, when Chu Shuzhi looked at him quietly countless times today, That way, it was clearly a farewell.
Chu Shuzhi didn't go out to do something, and it wasn't even that he might encounter danger. He was determined to come back at all.
Do you think again, just leave me like this?
Guo Changcheng had such a thought in his mind for no reason. He didn't know what "again" meant, but he felt that he had experienced this kind of breathless despair once, a long, long time ago.
Guo Changcheng stood up.If it was the usual him, he must have broken down and started crying now, but he didn't.He's surprisingly calm now.The bone puppet watched him stand up, and retreated to the door, with a posture of defending to the end.
Guo Changcheng just walked to the kitchen, scanned around, and picked up the sharpest-looking knife.

In the old temple.basement.
Chu Shuzhi stood silently in front of the altar where the bamboo slips of the dead were written.The three incense burners in front of him are emitting green smoke, which is the proof that the seal that binds the dead souls is still working.
Chu Shuzhi stepped forward and stretched his bleeding arm into the leftmost censer.
tick.As the blood flowed into the soil of the incense altar, the originally burning incense began to rot and crack from the root in an instant, and the green smoke in the incense burner suddenly went out.
He broke the first seal.
Rumble.Exactly the same as when he summoned the corpse a few days ago, something from the depths of the earth struggled to float to the ground, and a large amount of black mist gushed out from the extinguished incense burner, breaking through the ceiling of the basement in an instant.
Chu Shuzhi's body didn't move, and a huge barrier made of white bones suddenly opened around him, protecting the altar and himself under the barrier.Boulders and sand rolled down from the top of the head, and after a while, amidst the dust flying all over the sky, the surroundings collapsed into ruins, forming a terrifying giant pit, like a giant beast embedded in the ground with its mouth wide open.Only the place where he stood remained intact.
A steady stream of black mist rushed out clamorously, and countless screaming blurred faces gathered together, and in the end only a huge, pitch-black monster was floating in the air.The root of that thing is still connected to the small incense burner, but the top of it is like a living black giant net, covering the sky and covering the sky.
It is the entity transformed from the resentment of thousands of dead souls.
The thing quietly "opened its mouth", and thousands of different voices sang in unison from all directions.
"Chu Jiang, it's been 1000 years, when will you pay for your life!"
The sound rolled with the air current, almost sweeping away everything on the ground.Compared with that behemoth, Chu Shuzhi is as small as an ant that can be crushed to death with one foot.Yet he stood still.
Chu Shuzhi said in a deep voice: "Blood debts are paid in blood. It is only right and proper. If I owe you, I will pay you back."
"However, before that, I must figure out what happened thousands of years ago."
(5)
Guo Changcheng took a sharp knife from the kitchen and walked back.
The expressionless white bones moved slightly, as if he was a little nervous.However, Guo Changcheng didn't look at it at all, passed by it, and walked straight to the window sill of the living room.
He opened the window, and the night wind blew in, making his hair and collar rattle.He looked down, and there were no obstacles downstairs, it was flat ground.
On the eighth floor, he was a mortal, and he would surely die if he fell.
Guo Changcheng turned to look at the bone puppet, his soft and gentle voice was extremely calm now. "You are the bone in his body, you should understand, I have to find him."
"If it doesn't work, then die here now and treat it as being with him."
With that said, he stepped on the window sill with one foot.Bone trembled all over, and suddenly rushed towards Guo Changcheng, Guo Changcheng didn't hesitate for a second, turned over and jumped down.
Guo Changcheng felt that he was falling rapidly, the sky was too dark, he couldn't even see where the ground was, but the eighth floor was not high, he knew that he would fall heavily to the ground in a few seconds, and his brain would burst. Blood splattered everywhere.The instinctive fear of death surged up, Guo Changcheng trembled all over, clenched the knife in his hand, and clenched his teeth.
He is gambling.
The bone puppet jumped down after him, desperately trying to catch him.At the last moment of falling to the ground, the puppet finally grabbed him and turned into a bracket to cushion him, absorbing most of the impact.
However, the huge inertia caused the bracket to scatter and collapse. After being buffered, Guo Changcheng knocked to the ground, his left foot clicked, and a burst of sharp pain hit.
The scattered white bones danced and gathered together on the ground, and re-formed into a skeleton exactly like Chu Shuzhi.The puppet hurried over to help Guo Changcheng, but Guo Changcheng grabbed the sharp knife that fell aside, endured the severe pain in his left foot, got up, and staggered back to the side.
He put the knife on his neck.The puppet stopped a few meters away from him.
Guo Changcheng said: "I will not go back to the hotel. I can't beat you, but if you stop me again, you will have to go back with the corpse."
Bone hesitated and raised his hand.Guo Changcheng scratched his own neck without hesitation.
The puppet stopped moving.
One person and one bone were deadlocked.Blood flowed down Guo Changcheng's white neck, slipped into his collar, and stained the skirt of his shirt red.
After a while, the bone puppet lowered its head, as if sighing deeply.Immediately, a white smoke floated up, and a small thing flew down from the window, the smoke cleared, and I saw the little puppet doll lying quietly at the place where the bone puppet disappeared, holding a bag in its hand, and a part of it was exposed inside. bones.
Guo Changcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He took out gauze and tape from his bag, and stopped the bleeding on his neck indiscriminately. Then he looked at his ankle. It was swollen like a bun, and he couldn't use his strength, but he seemed to be able to move. It must have been dislocated. .
As long as it didn't break, he didn't care about anything else, and didn't want to wait a second longer. He limped over to pick up the little puppet doll, and drove towards the southwest.
Brother Chu, you have to wait for me this time.

in the boundary.
When Chu Shuzhi extinguished the second censer, the resentment roared from the censer and drowned the entire barrier.
From the outside, bounded by a circle of pale golden transparent walls, the inside of the wall is like a large ink-colored dye vat, filled with turbid black mist.
Chu Shuzhi was standing in the middle of the black mist, his body and face were cut by the black mist, and blood began to ooze, but he didn't seem to notice it, just stood there, his dark gray pupils seemed to be dizzy magnified.
What was untied together with the second seal, what surged in was all the memories of his lifetime.
Thirty years passed like a flash, a child in Jiangmen's mansion was born, the young man took the command of his father and became famous in the first battle, the army fought on the frontier for ten years, and when he had nothing to lose, he met the love of his life when he was about to end, and in the end he still couldn't resist fate and walked into the endless abyss.
When Chu Shuzhi regained his clarity, he spat out a big mouthful of blood.
A crack opened on the pale golden barrier.
"Okay, I do have a sin to redeem." The man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice, "You have unresolved grievances for thousands of years, and you don't want to be reincarnated, trapped here, but I can return to the human world, it's really unfair."
"If eating my flesh and blood can transform you, then take this life."

Cars speeding through the deserted streets at night.Guo Changcheng clenched the steering wheel tightly, his face darkened by the flashing street lights that swept back.
Guo Changcheng thought a lot along the way, but he didn't seem to think about anything.He didn't know if he would have time to see Chu Shuzhi.He couldn't imagine how he would react if Chu Shuzhi was dead, if there was no such person in the world anymore.
His mind had never been so calm at this moment, but somewhere in his heart was empty and dead.
The old temple is getting closer.
Looking from a distance, a transparent gilt ring wall is upside down on the ground, like a huge golden bell in the dark night, enveloping the place where the old temple is located.
Brother Chu, is that the barrier you set up... Am I, it's not too late.
The limbs and bones that had been completely cooled down slowly recovered a little bit of temperature, and the heart seemed to be beating again.
Guo Changcheng finally ran to the front of the junction. Because his left foot hurt every time he touched the ground, he had fallen countless times in just a few hundred meters. , embarrassed.
Panting heavily, he raised his head and looked at the huge golden wall in front of him. The inside and outside of the wall seemed to be two isolated worlds. Inside the wall was a dark chaos, and he couldn't distinguish his fingers.
Taking a closer look, there are already several deep cracks in the barrier.The thick black mist flowed, hit the wall continuously, and bounced back again, but still no black air overflowed.
A few birds flew past overhead, flapping their wings, and when they were about to pass through the barrier, they heard a few muffled noises. The birds seemed to bump into some real obstacle, flapping their wings back a few meters, changing their flight traces of.
Can't you get in... Guo Changcheng gently pressed his palm against the wall.The touch under the palm is cold and soft, as cold and hard as metal, and as gentle as running water.
It seems to be the breath of that person.
Guo Changcheng closed his eyes, it seemed that what flowed under his hands was not a barrier, but the soul and blood of that person, familiar and warm.Somehow, he somehow felt that he could pass through.
Brother Chu, Brother Chu, he silently recited that name in his heart, the resistance under his hand actually disappeared, and his hand crossed the barrier like flowing water.
Guo Changcheng opened his eyes and stepped into the chaos inside the wall without any hesitation.
(8)
The moment he entered the enchantment, the silence around him was covered by the never-ending mourning.The resentful souls sensed that a living creature had broken in, and immediately pressed down on him, clamoring to tear him to pieces.
There was a flash of blue smoke in the satchel, and the bone puppet suddenly appeared in front of him, wrapping him tightly in his arms.
"Go back quickly—" Guo Changcheng yelled, but it was too late.In the next second, the bones would be torn apart by thousands of resentful souls together with him, he subconsciously closed his eyes tightly.
Yet no pain came down.
Opening his eyes in doubt, he was shocked to find that there was a soft orange light all over his body.The light passed along his hand to the puppet, softening the puppet's pale bones.
The resentment pressing down on them seemed to be afraid of the orange light, and stopped less than one meter away from him, circling and unable to get any closer.Guo Changcheng tried to walk a few steps, but his resentment really couldn't be avoided, and he shrank back as he advanced.
Guo Changcheng settled down and said softly to the puppet, "Go back to your bag, it's fine."
He dragged one leg and walked with difficulty in the darkness where his hands could not be seen.There was no light around, and he himself was the only source of light, like a solitary lamp in the long night.He tried his best to call Chu Shuzhi's name over and over again, even though his ears were full of noisy and piercing mourning, he couldn't even hear his voice.
Soon.Soon to find you.Brother Chu, wait for me a little longer.
He didn't know how long he had been walking, but it was so long that his voice was congested, his consciousness began to blur, and the orange light on his body gradually dimmed. He finally saw a faint fire not far away, and a few wisps of blue smoke fluttered up.
It was a small incense burner. 'This incense is driven by the spell, the incense is in the curse, and the incense stops when the curse is extinguished. 'Chu Shuzhi once told him.
There was still a person standing in front of the censer.There is no distinction between the black clothes and the dark night, but Guo Changcheng swears that he will never miss that familiar figure and facial features in this life, the next life, and the next life.
His heart beat wildly.
"Brother Chu..."
"Brother Chu---!!!"
The person not far away raised his eyes in astonishment. Across the altar, across the chaotic black mist, and across the messy ground, Guo Changcheng and Chu Shuzhi's eyes finally intersected.
Chu Shuzhi's hand was still on the incense burner, and he didn't have time to withdraw it.
tick.
The blood fell into the censer, blooming like a mandala in the dark night.
The last seal was released.
(9)
Landslides and fissures.
In an instant, the resentment of all ghosts soared to the sky, and then pressed down on Chu Shuzhi with a thunderous force.
"Don't come over -!" Chu Shuzhi roared.Even if he was torn apart by all ghosts, it was not as good as the scene in front of him that made him burn from inside to inside.
The person who shouldn't be here, the person he couldn't bear to hurt even half of it.
Guo Changcheng rushed over regardless, and hugged him.At the same time, a burst of intense white light surrounded the two of them.
The grieving ghosts rushing over were hit by the white light, as if they were being burned by fire, they screamed and retreated, and the next moment they rushed forward one after another, biting the edge of the halo, wanting to tear apart a horse. The white light was torn apart like silk.
Guo Changcheng was so painful that cold sweat poured down his head like a waterfall.In the instant of lightning and flint just now, what he ignited instinctively was his own soul.
Chu Shu bit off the flesh and blood of his left arm, and poured all his spiritual power into it. The scarlet blood mixed with thousands of white bones roaring from the ground and rushed to the sky, like a copper wall and an iron wall that will be torn apart by thousands of ghosts. The glowing white light is inside.
His left arm withered away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his flesh and blood were consumed in an instant.
Only then did Guo Changcheng's tense body relax.
Chu Shuzhi hugged Guo Changcheng tightly with his intact right arm.Guo Changcheng's face was as pale as paper, and there was no blood on his lips. When he opened his mouth, his mouth was already full of scarlet blood.
He struggled to grab the skirt of Chu Shuzhi's back, buried his face on the man's neck, but said softly with a soft smile: "Brother Chu, let's go back. Come out with me, okay?"
"Fool..." Guo Changcheng heard the man's voice trembling, and said in a low voice, "Who told you to come here by yourself! You dare to come in like this without knowing anything, do you know...do you know But if there is even the slightest mistake, you may never go out again!"
Guo Changcheng lay on his shoulders, heheed twice heartlessly, and even coughed up more blood, his facial features wrinkled together in pain, but his tone was very pleasant. "Who told you not to tell me anything... You always do this... I've said it all, and I will be very angry if you do this again."
He rubbed against the man's shoulder, and tightened his grip on the skirt of his shirt.
"It doesn't matter if you don't get out..." The child said softly, "I said before, I will go wherever you go, and I will accompany you wherever you go."
Even the arms of the person holding him trembled.
Guo Changcheng nestled obediently in his arms, the world was dark and dark, and the ghosts were crying harshly, but now he felt more at ease than ever.In addition to being relieved, all kinds of worries and grievances along the way also flooded up, his nose was sore, and he almost wanted to cry.
Guo Changcheng said sullenly: "Brother Chu, I don't know why you have to do this, but if you have to die here... what sin do you want to atone for, I will atone with you. Don't leave me behind. Myself."
The resentful ghosts were still slamming into the wall above their heads frantically one after another, clicking, clicking, and there was a faint sound of bones breaking apart.Chu Shuzhi's spell can't last long.
Under the dense bone wall, this world still steals a moment of peace. The orange-white light from Guo Changcheng's body gently enveloped the two of them, as if that light also came from Chu Shuzhi's body, as if he He has never been burdened with scarlet blood debts, like a deep sin.
(10)
Chu Shuzhi murmured with a wry smile: "What a fool, it's been 1000 years, why haven't you made any progress at all?"
He let go of Guo Changcheng, carefully held the child's face in one hand, pressed his lips to his forehead, and placed a soft kiss between the brows.The kiss did not contain any desire, it was as light as a feather, and it was as pious as a believer's salute to a holy god.
Then Chu Shuzhi took a few steps back, looked at him deeply, and said in a low voice. "Great Wall, I'm sorry."
Guo Changcheng looked at him in confusion.sorry for what.
Chu Shuzhi said: "You are right, I have to atone. There are some debts that I have owed for too long. It is not only owed to these resentful souls, but also...to you."
Guo Changcheng wanted to say something more, he wanted to walk over, but suddenly found in horror that he could not make a sound or move.
He was locked in place.
Guo Changcheng stared at him in disbelief.The calm expression was finally replaced by fear and despair.
Chu Shuzhi!You want to...?
how can you do this !
The ear-piercing sound of shattering skeletons continued, and the shields above their heads were collapsing.
Chu Shuzhi looked at him from a few meters away, with nostalgia, guilt, and reluctance in his eyes. "I know you'll blame me for this, but I can't bear to let you die with me."
"I said before that I want to protect you for the rest of my life. I may miss the appointment. I'm sorry."
"However, I sealed some spiritual power and soul in that bone puppet. Even if I am gone, it will protect you when you are in danger."
Chu Shuzhi tore off a strip from his clothes, waved his hand lightly, and the black cloth floated towards Guo Changcheng.
Guo Changcheng could only watch helplessly as the black cloth wrapped around his eyes and tied a knot in the back of his head, but he could do nothing.
There was only darkness left in the field of vision.He didn't even have the last right to look at that person.
Tears silently slid down Guo Changcheng's thin cheeks.
"Don't cry," Chu Shuzhi said, "you will be reincarnated in many lives and meet many people. Even if you are reincarnated, Zhao Yunlan and the others will help you. And you are so good, you will definitely meet others who want to Those who guard you."
I only hate that this life made you sad, but in the next life, you will forget about me and start over.You will meet people like me who want to protect you. I hope they will protect you for me and never let you be wronged again.
"The bone puppet will stay with you until that time, until you don't need it anymore."
Boom, a corner of the wall of bones collapsed, and the ghost screamed to rush in.Chu Shuzhi raised his withered left arm and waved it, and more bones were added to it. At the same time, half of his face began to crawl up with dry lines like his left arm.
"The time is coming, it's time to say goodbye." Chu Shuzhi said regretfully.
He looked at Guo Changcheng quietly, recalling flashing frame by frame, and finally stopped at the days when the child fell in love with him foolishly through love.Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, his chapped lips curled up into a smile, and his gray pupils also glowed a little.
"There is one last thing I want to tell you."
Chu Shuzhi smiled and said something.
Then Guo Changcheng was pushed out by a strong force, and at the same time as he flew out, with a loud noise, the protective cover where he was originally was completely collapsed.
Countless ghosts roared past Guo Changcheng, there was the sound of flesh being torn apart in front of him, the sound of bones being chewed, and a strong smell of blood came over his face.
But Chu Shuzhi didn't make any more sound.
Outside the line of sight blocked by the black cloth, the sky was full of flames.

Once, when Guo Changcheng fell in love with Chu Shuzhi on borrowed love, he had a dream.In the dream, there was a tree growing outside the window, and he had been silently watching that touch of greenery, from sprouting to seeing it grow into lush greenery, but he never came close to take a look at it.
Finally one day, he pushed open the door, walked under the tree, touched the rough trunk for the first time, looked up at the mottled shadow of the tree, and then leaned under the tree and took a nap.
As if it was done like that a long time ago.
On the night when I came back from the temple fair, the lush greenness fell into a dream again after a long absence.Only this time, all the green trees have turned into pale white flowers, the petals are fluttering in the air as the breeze blows, and the falling snow turns white.
It turned out that this was a crabapple.
There was another person standing under the tree.The man was dressed in an ancient black gown, with a tall and slender back. He was bending over to water the soil under the tree, and some white petals fell on his shoulders.
As he got closer, the man turned his head.The facial features are sharp, the expression is indifferent, but the peach blossom eyes seem to be affectionate.
...Brother Chu?
"You're here." The man said, put down the water basket in his hand, and looked at him quietly.
……I am coming? ...are you waiting for me...have you been waiting long?
The man came to him and handed him a branch of crabapple with flower buds.He took it suspiciously, and the moment he touched the branch, the unopened buds bloomed slowly, full of snow.
The man's originally quiet and indifferent expression was stained with a smile, and he said softly: "Now I should go."
……Walk? ……Where are you going?
The man didn't answer him, the dark and deserted figure gradually drifted away, only the begonias full of trees were still floating on his shoulders.
Looking at his back, Guo Changcheng felt an inexplicable panic, as if if he didn't stop him, that person would never come back.
...don't go, don't go.
So he desperately chased after him, but no matter how he ran, he couldn't get close. In the end, the shadow of the man completely disappeared from his field of vision.
Then Guo Changcheng woke up, and it was still dark outside the window.He subconsciously touched the hat on his pillow, lay there staring for a while, sighed and got out of bed.
He was still worried about that person, he had to go and see to make sure he was still asleep.
When Guo Changcheng opened the door of Chu Shuzhi's room, he was a little guilty. He thought that he was always so nervous, and he would probably be scolded by Brother Chu again.
However, his blood froze in the next second.The room was empty, without a trace of familiar smell.
The drowsiness was swept away, Guo Changcheng staggered back to the living room and turned on the light, only to see the puppet doll he gave to Chu Shuzhi during the day on the coffee table, and there was a note next to it.
'I'm going to do something, don't run around, wait for Chu Zhao and the others to come. '
Guo Changcheng hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed Chu Shuzhi's number, the cold shutdown prompt made his heart sink.The faint uneasiness in the past two days seems to be pouring out like a flood at this moment. He intuitively feels that Chu Shuzhi is not as simple as going out to do some errands. Looking forward to Chu Shuzhi's return.
Guo Changcheng didn't even bother to tidy up, grabbed his satchel and rushed out the door.At this time, the puppet doll lying quietly on the coffee table moved suddenly, and a flash of light flashed out from the bag in the doll's hand, and flew straight to the door.Guo Changcheng, who was about to close the doorknob, felt that he was bounced back by a strong force, and sat down on the ground.
Looking up, he was dumbfounded.A bone puppet as tall as a grown man stood firmly at the door, blocking his way.

At this time, the southwest suburbs more than ten kilometers away.
A man in black stood in front of the old temple.The moonlight was hidden by thin clouds, and the forest was extremely dark. The man didn't turn on the flashlight, and his whole body was hidden in the darkness, like a ghost in the dark night.
He seemed to sense who was coming, and something in the depths of the temple began to be restless. The originally dead forest reverberated with indistinct mourning and creepy sighs.
You are here, you are here...
Chu Shuzhi looked calm and calm, and said lightly, um, I'm here, as if responding to that voice.
He went to the side and broke off a branch, retreated a hundred meters away from the temple gate, raised his hand and casually scratched a deep gash on his left arm, bleeding profusely in an instant, but he didn't know much about it. care.Chu Shuzhi let the blood flow down the branch, and soon the whole branch was dyed black and red.
He was muttering something while drawing blood-stained branches across the ground. He walked around the old temple unhurriedly. The places he passed by were all shining with golden light, as if standing on the ground. A transparent wall.In the end, it formed a huge pale golden circle.
That is a barrier.
He returned to the place where the line was originally drawn, inserted the blood-stained branch into the ground, and ignited a spell, accompanied by sparks soaring into the sky, he said in a deep voice.
"Blood is the matchmaker, the soul is the bait, and this enchantment is set up. Except for the blood and the soul, no living soul can enter, and the dead cannot exit. The curse of inexhaustible blood will not stop, and the curse will not be removed until the soul is extinct."
As the words fell, a beam of strong golden light surrounded him, and then he slowly stepped into the barrier, and his figure disappeared into the old temple.The ghostly chirping that drifted away was also cut off, and a dead silence was restored outside the barrier, and the forest was silent.

in the hotel.
One person and one bone have been confronted for half an hour.The last time Guo Changcheng saw such a big bone puppet was when he and Chu Shuzhi were collecting living souls together and met a bunch of ghost animals before the Soul Relief Lamp was rekindled.
This kind of puppet is so powerful that it can break the neck of a secluded animal with one hand.
Guo Changcheng knew that Chu Shuzhi was determined not to let him go out this time.The bone puppet leaned against the door with its arms folded, looking condescending.Guo Changcheng tried various methods to bypass it, but failed.Those who come softly will be pulled aside impatiently, and those who come hard will be kicked back to the sofa.Guo Changcheng wanted to cry but had no tears, and even began to reason with the puppet.
"Brother, please let me go, I really have to go to Brother Chu, your master may be in danger."
The bone picked out his ears, although he didn't have ears.Guo Changcheng felt that if it had eyes, it must be rolling its eyes now.It seems to be saying, my master is in danger and it's not up to you to save him, weak chicken.
After failing the hundredth battle, Guo Changcheng finally sat back on the sofa dejectedly.Frustrated, he called Zhao Yunlan.
It was Shen Wei who answered the phone: "Xiao Guo, what happened, calling so late? Our plane will arrive early tomorrow morning."
Guo Changcheng said weakly: "Master, come and help me. Brother Chu left a note and left alone, and left a big puppet to prevent me from going out. I think... something will happen to him."
The other end of the phone paused for a while, and then spoke with a more dignified voice. "Xiao Guo, don't worry, I'll call Yunlan to answer the phone, and we'll be there right away."
Guo Changcheng felt physically and mentally exhausted, and nodded mechanically. He didn't even realize that the other side couldn't see him nodding.Anxious, worried, and helpless, Guo Changcheng held the phone in one hand, bent his legs and shrank to the sofa, and buried his head in his knees in depression.
A bony hand touched his head.He looked up at the puppet in frustration, with a resentful look on his face.The bone puppet stood in front of the sofa and looked down at him. After hesitating for a moment, he scraped his face with his thumb, then bent his fingertips and squeezed it twice, as if to express comfort.
Guo Changcheng's eyes widened bit by bit, staring at it in disbelief.There is only one person who has some unique little habits when pinching his face, and he will never admit it wrong.
The other end of the phone has been replaced by Zhao Yunlan, chattering something, Guo Changcheng didn't listen to a word, he re-examined it up and down like seeing this puppet for the first time.Why didn't he realize just now that this puppet's height, frame, movement, and demeanor are clearly... exactly the same as that person.
"Zhao Chu," Guo Changcheng stared at the puppet, interrupting Zhao Yunlan who was still talking, "Have you ever seen Brother Chu use a bone puppet that is exactly like himself?"
Zhao Yunlan was also stunned for a while, hesitantly said: "The puppet is exactly the same, you can't be talking about his real bones..."
Guo Changcheng listened to Zhao Yunlan's explanation over there, and the blood on his face had faded at the end.The corpse's own bones are called original bones.Corpse Taoists are good at manipulating white bones as puppets for battle, and taking out a few of their own bones, they can naturally be made into puppets.It's just that the original bone is connected to the soul, and it is a part of the lifeblood of the corpse Taoist. If he leaves the body for too long, it will damage his own soul, and there is even the risk of being wiped out. Therefore, no corpse Taoist has ever used his own bone as a puppet.
Unless, he had planned to be wiped out.
Guo Changcheng remained silent, Zhao Yunlan was a little anxious on the other side: "Xiao Guo? Xiao Guo, are you still listening? Wait for us, we will be there in a while!"
Guo Changcheng silently hung up the phone.The scenes of the past few days were played back in front of his eyes, the nightmare that made Chu Shuzhi cry, his bloodshot pupils, his unusual fragility, and the gentle pampering that accompanied him all day today.
He was indulging in the gentleness of that person, so he didn't realize that when Chu Shuzhi hugged him gently through the bear doll, when Chu Shuzhi looked at him quietly countless times today, That way, it was clearly a farewell.
Chu Shuzhi didn't go out to do something, and it wasn't even that he might encounter danger. He was determined to come back at all.
Do you think again, just leave me like this?
Guo Changcheng had such a thought in his mind for no reason. He didn't know what "again" meant, but he felt that he had experienced this kind of breathless despair once, a long, long time ago.
Guo Changcheng stood up.If it was the usual him, he must have broken down and started crying now, but he didn't.He's surprisingly calm now.The bone puppet watched him stand up, and retreated to the door, with a posture of defending to the end.
Guo Changcheng just walked to the kitchen, scanned around, and picked up the sharpest-looking knife.
(4)
In the old temple.basement.
Chu Shuzhi stood silently in front of the altar where the bamboo slips of the dead were written.The three incense burners in front of him are emitting green smoke, which is the proof that the seal that binds the dead souls is still working.
Chu Shuzhi stepped forward and stretched his bleeding arm into the leftmost censer.
tick.As the blood flowed into the soil of the incense altar, the originally burning incense began to rot and crack from the root in an instant, and the green smoke in the incense burner suddenly went out.
He broke the first seal.
Rumble.Exactly the same as when he summoned the corpse a few days ago, something from the depths of the earth struggled to float to the ground, and a large amount of black mist gushed out from the extinguished incense burner, breaking through the ceiling of the basement in an instant.
Chu Shuzhi's body didn't move, and a huge barrier made of white bones suddenly opened around him, protecting the altar and himself under the barrier.Boulders and sand rolled down from the top of the head, and after a while, amidst the dust flying all over the sky, the surroundings collapsed into ruins, forming a terrifying giant pit, like a giant beast embedded in the ground with its mouth wide open.Only the place where he stood remained intact.
A steady stream of black mist rushed out clamorously, and countless screaming blurred faces gathered together, and in the end only a huge, pitch-black monster was floating in the air.The root of that thing is still connected to the small incense burner, but the top of it is like a living black giant net, covering the sky and covering the sky.
It is the entity transformed from the resentment of thousands of dead souls.
The thing quietly "opened its mouth", and thousands of different voices sang in unison from all directions.
"Chu Jiang, it's been 1000 years, when will you pay for your life!"
The sound rolled with the air current, almost sweeping away everything on the ground.Compared with that behemoth, Chu Shuzhi is as small as an ant that can be crushed to death with one foot.Yet he stood still.
Chu Shuzhi said in a deep voice: "Blood debts are paid in blood. It is only right and proper. If I owe you, I will pay you back."
"However, before that, I must figure out what happened thousands of years ago."
(5)
Guo Changcheng took a sharp knife from the kitchen and walked back.
The expressionless white bones moved slightly, as if he was a little nervous.However, Guo Changcheng didn't look at it at all, passed by it, and walked straight to the window sill of the living room.
He opened the window, and the night wind blew in, making his hair and collar rattle.He looked down, and there were no obstacles downstairs, it was flat ground.
On the eighth floor, he was a mortal, and he would surely die if he fell.
Guo Changcheng turned to look at the bone puppet, his soft and gentle voice was extremely calm now. "You are the bone in his body, you should understand, I have to find him."
"If it doesn't work, then die here now and treat it as being with him."
With that said, he stepped on the window sill with one foot.Bone trembled all over, and suddenly rushed towards Guo Changcheng, Guo Changcheng didn't hesitate for a second, turned over and jumped down.
Guo Changcheng felt that he was falling rapidly, the sky was too dark, he couldn't even see where the ground was, but the eighth floor was not high, he knew that he would fall heavily to the ground in a few seconds, and his brain would burst. Blood splattered everywhere.The instinctive fear of death surged up, Guo Changcheng trembled all over, clenched the knife in his hand, and clenched his teeth.
He is gambling.
The bone puppet jumped down after him, desperately trying to catch him.At the last moment of falling to the ground, the puppet finally grabbed him and turned into a bracket to cushion him, absorbing most of the impact.
However, the huge inertia caused the bracket to scatter and collapse. After being buffered, Guo Changcheng knocked to the ground, his left foot clicked, and a burst of sharp pain hit.
The scattered white bones danced and gathered together on the ground, and re-formed into a skeleton exactly like Chu Shuzhi.The puppet hurried over to help Guo Changcheng, but Guo Changcheng grabbed the sharp knife that fell aside, endured the severe pain in his left foot, got up, and staggered back to the side.
He put the knife on his neck.The puppet stopped a few meters away from him.
Guo Changcheng said: "I will not go back to the hotel. I can't beat you, but if you stop me again, you will have to go back with the corpse."
Bone hesitated and raised his hand.Guo Changcheng scratched his own neck without hesitation.
The puppet stopped moving.
One person and one bone were deadlocked.Blood flowed down Guo Changcheng's white neck, slipped into his collar, and stained the skirt of his shirt red.
After a while, the bone puppet lowered its head, as if sighing deeply.Immediately, a white smoke floated up, and a small thing flew down from the window, the smoke cleared, and I saw the little puppet doll lying quietly at the place where the bone puppet disappeared, holding a bag in its hand, and a part of it was exposed inside. bones.
Guo Changcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He took out gauze and tape from his bag, and stopped the bleeding on his neck indiscriminately. Then he looked at his ankle. It was swollen like a bun, and he couldn't use his strength, but he seemed to be able to move. It must have been dislocated. .
As long as it didn't break, he didn't care about anything else, and didn't want to wait a second longer. He limped over to pick up the little puppet doll, and drove towards the southwest.
Brother Chu, you have to wait for me this time.

in the boundary.
When Chu Shuzhi extinguished the second censer, the resentment roared from the censer and drowned the entire barrier.
From the outside, bounded by a circle of pale golden transparent walls, the inside of the wall is like a large ink-colored dye vat, filled with turbid black mist.
Chu Shuzhi was standing in the middle of the black mist, his body and face were cut by the black mist, and blood began to ooze, but he didn't seem to notice it, just stood there, his dark gray pupils seemed to be dizzy magnified.
What was untied together with the second seal, what surged in was all the memories of his lifetime.
Thirty years passed like a flash, a child in Jiangmen's mansion was born, the young man took the command of his father and became famous in the first battle, the army fought on the frontier for ten years, and when he had nothing to lose, he met the love of his life when he was about to end, and in the end he still couldn't resist fate and walked into the endless abyss.
When Chu Shuzhi regained his clarity, he spat out a big mouthful of blood.
A crack opened on the pale golden barrier.
"Okay, I do have a sin to redeem." The man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice, "You have unresolved grievances for thousands of years, and you don't want to be reincarnated, trapped here, but I can return to the human world, it's really unfair."
"If eating my flesh and blood can transform you, then take this life."
(7)
Cars speeding through the deserted streets at night.Guo Changcheng clenched the steering wheel tightly, his face darkened by the flashing street lights that swept back.
Guo Changcheng thought a lot along the way, but he didn't seem to think about anything.He didn't know if he would have time to see Chu Shuzhi.He couldn't imagine how he would react if Chu Shuzhi was dead, if there was no such person in the world anymore.
His mind had never been so calm at this moment, but somewhere in his heart was empty and dead.
The old temple is getting closer.
Looking from a distance, a transparent gilt ring wall is upside down on the ground, like a huge golden bell in the dark night, enveloping the place where the old temple is located.
Brother Chu, is that the barrier you set up... Am I, it's not too late.
The limbs and bones that had been completely cooled down slowly recovered a little bit of temperature, and the heart seemed to be beating again.
Guo Changcheng finally ran to the front of the junction. Because his left foot hurt every time he touched the ground, he had fallen countless times in just a few hundred meters. , embarrassed.
Panting heavily, he raised his head and looked at the huge golden wall in front of him. The inside and outside of the wall seemed to be two isolated worlds. Inside the wall was a dark chaos, and he couldn't distinguish his fingers.
Taking a closer look, there are already several deep cracks in the barrier.The thick black mist flowed, hit the wall continuously, and bounced back again, but still no black air overflowed.
A few birds flew past overhead, flapping their wings, and when they were about to pass through the barrier, they heard a few muffled noises. The birds seemed to bump into some real obstacle, flapping their wings back a few meters, changing their flight traces of.
Can't you get in... Guo Changcheng gently pressed his palm against the wall.The touch under the palm is cold and soft, as cold and hard as metal, and as gentle as running water.
It seems to be the breath of that person.
Guo Changcheng closed his eyes, it seemed that what flowed under his hands was not a barrier, but the soul and blood of that person, familiar and warm.Somehow, he somehow felt that he could pass through.
Brother Chu, Brother Chu, he silently recited that name in his heart, the resistance under his hand actually disappeared, and his hand crossed the barrier like flowing water.
Guo Changcheng opened his eyes and stepped into the chaos inside the wall without any hesitation.
(8)
The moment he entered the enchantment, the silence around him was covered by the never-ending mourning.The resentful souls sensed that a living creature had broken in, and immediately pressed down on him, clamoring to tear him to pieces.
There was a flash of blue smoke in the satchel, and the bone puppet suddenly appeared in front of him, wrapping him tightly in his arms.
"Go back quickly—" Guo Changcheng yelled, but it was too late.In the next second, the bones would be torn apart by thousands of resentful souls together with him, he subconsciously closed his eyes tightly.
Yet no pain came down.
Opening his eyes in doubt, he was shocked to find that there was a soft orange light all over his body.The light passed along his hand to the puppet, softening the puppet's pale bones.
The resentment pressing down on them seemed to be afraid of the orange light, and stopped less than one meter away from him, circling and unable to get any closer.Guo Changcheng tried to walk a few steps, but his resentment really couldn't be avoided, and he shrank back as he advanced.
Guo Changcheng settled down and said softly to the puppet, "Go back to your bag, it's fine."
He dragged one leg and walked with difficulty in the darkness where his hands could not be seen.There was no light around, and he himself was the only source of light, like a solitary lamp in the long night.He tried his best to call Chu Shuzhi's name over and over again, even though his ears were full of noisy and piercing mourning, he couldn't even hear his voice.
Soon.Soon to find you.Brother Chu, wait for me a little longer.
He didn't know how long he had been walking, but it was so long that his voice was congested, his consciousness began to blur, and the orange light on his body gradually dimmed. He finally saw a faint fire not far away, and a few wisps of blue smoke fluttered up.
It was a small incense burner. 'This incense is driven by the spell, the incense is in the curse, and the incense stops when the curse is extinguished. 'Chu Shuzhi once told him.
There was still a person standing in front of the censer.There is no distinction between the black clothes and the dark night, but Guo Changcheng swears that he will never miss that familiar figure and facial features in this life, the next life, and the next life.
His heart beat wildly.
"Brother Chu..."
"Brother Chu---!!!"
The person not far away raised his eyes in astonishment. Across the altar, across the chaotic black mist, and across the messy ground, Guo Changcheng and Chu Shuzhi's eyes finally intersected.
Chu Shuzhi's hand was still on the incense burner, and he didn't have time to withdraw it.
tick.
The blood fell into the censer, blooming like a mandala in the dark night.
The last seal was released.
(9)
Landslides and fissures.
In an instant, the resentment of all ghosts soared to the sky, and then pressed down on Chu Shuzhi with a thunderous force.
"Don't come over -!" Chu Shuzhi roared.Even if he was torn apart by all ghosts, it was not as good as the scene in front of him that made him burn from inside to inside.
The person who shouldn't be here, the person he couldn't bear to hurt even half of it.
Guo Changcheng rushed over regardless, and hugged him.At the same time, a burst of intense white light surrounded the two of them.
The grieving ghosts rushing over were hit by the white light, as if they were being burned by fire, they screamed and retreated, and the next moment they rushed forward one after another, biting the edge of the halo, wanting to tear apart a horse. The white light was torn apart like silk.
Guo Changcheng was so painful that cold sweat poured down his head like a waterfall.In the instant of lightning and flint just now, what he ignited instinctively was his own soul.
Chu Shu bit off the flesh and blood of his left arm, and poured all his spiritual power into it. The scarlet blood mixed with thousands of white bones roaring from the ground and rushed to the sky, like a copper wall and an iron wall that will be torn apart by thousands of ghosts. The glowing white light is inside.
His left arm withered away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his flesh and blood were consumed in an instant.
Only then did Guo Changcheng's tense body relax.
Chu Shuzhi hugged Guo Changcheng tightly with his intact right arm.Guo Changcheng's face was as pale as paper, and there was no blood on his lips. When he opened his mouth, his mouth was already full of scarlet blood.
He struggled to grab the skirt of Chu Shuzhi's back, buried his face on the man's neck, but said softly with a soft smile: "Brother Chu, let's go back. Come out with me, okay?"
"Fool..." Guo Changcheng heard the man's voice trembling, and said in a low voice, "Who told you to come here by yourself! You dare to come in like this without knowing anything, do you know...do you know But if there is even the slightest mistake, you may never go out again!"
Guo Changcheng lay on his shoulders, heheed twice heartlessly, and even coughed up more blood, his facial features wrinkled together in pain, but his tone was very pleasant. "Who told you not to tell me anything... You always do this... I've said it all, and I will be very angry if you do this again."
He rubbed against the man's shoulder, and tightened his grip on the skirt of his shirt.
"It doesn't matter if you don't get out..." The child said softly, "I said before, I will go wherever you go, and I will accompany you wherever you go."
Even the arms of the person holding him trembled.
Guo Changcheng nestled obediently in his arms, the world was dark and dark, and the ghosts were crying harshly, but now he felt more at ease than ever.In addition to being relieved, all kinds of worries and grievances along the way also flooded up, his nose was sore, and he almost wanted to cry.
Guo Changcheng said sullenly: "Brother Chu, I don't know why you have to do this, but if you have to die here... what sin do you want to atone for, I will atone with you. Don't leave me behind. Myself."
The resentful ghosts were still slamming into the wall above their heads frantically one after another, clicking, clicking, and there was a faint sound of bones breaking apart.Chu Shuzhi's spell can't last long.
Under the dense bone wall, this world still steals a moment of peace. The orange-white light from Guo Changcheng's body gently enveloped the two of them, as if that light also came from Chu Shuzhi's body, as if he He has never been burdened with scarlet blood debts, like a deep sin.
(10)
Chu Shuzhi murmured with a wry smile: "What a fool, it's been 1000 years, why haven't you made any progress at all?"
He let go of Guo Changcheng, carefully held the child's face in one hand, pressed his lips to his forehead, and placed a soft kiss between the brows.The kiss did not contain any desire, it was as light as a feather, and it was as pious as a believer's salute to a holy god.
Then Chu Shuzhi took a few steps back, looked at him deeply, and said in a low voice. "Great Wall, I'm sorry."
Guo Changcheng looked at him in confusion.sorry for what.
Chu Shuzhi said: "You are right, I have to atone. There are some debts that I have owed for too long. It is not only owed to these resentful souls, but also...to you."
Guo Changcheng wanted to say something more, he wanted to walk over, but suddenly found in horror that he could not make a sound or move.
He was locked in place.
Guo Changcheng stared at him in disbelief.The calm expression was finally replaced by fear and despair.
Chu Shuzhi!You want to...?
how can you do this !
The ear-piercing sound of shattering skeletons continued, and the shields above their heads were collapsing.
Chu Shuzhi looked at him from a few meters away, with nostalgia, guilt, and reluctance in his eyes. "I know you'll blame me for this, but I can't bear to let you die with me."
"I said before that I want to protect you for the rest of my life. I may miss the appointment. I'm sorry."
"However, I sealed some spiritual power and soul in that bone puppet. Even if I am gone, it will protect you when you are in danger."
Chu Shuzhi tore off a strip from his clothes, waved his hand lightly, and the black cloth floated towards Guo Changcheng.
Guo Changcheng could only watch helplessly as the black cloth wrapped around his eyes and tied a knot in the back of his head, but he could do nothing.
There was only darkness left in the field of vision.He didn't even have the last right to look at that person.
Tears silently slid down Guo Changcheng's thin cheeks.
"Don't cry," Chu Shuzhi said, "you will be reincarnated in many lives and meet many people. Even if you are reincarnated, Zhao Yunlan and the others will help you. And you are so good, you will definitely meet others who want to Those who guard you."
I only hate that this life made you sad, but in the next life, you will forget about me and start over.You will meet people like me who want to protect you. I hope they will protect you for me and never let you be wronged again.
"The bone puppet will stay with you until that time, until you don't need it anymore."
Boom, a corner of the wall of bones collapsed, and the ghost screamed to rush in.Chu Shuzhi raised his withered left arm and waved it, and more bones were added to it. At the same time, half of his face began to crawl up with dry lines like his left arm.
"The time is coming, it's time to say goodbye." Chu Shuzhi said regretfully.
He looked at Guo Changcheng quietly, recalling flashing frame by frame, and finally stopped at the days when the child fell in love with him foolishly through love.Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, his chapped lips curled up into a smile, and his gray pupils also glowed a little.
"There is one last thing I want to tell you."
Chu Shuzhi smiled and said something.
Then Guo Changcheng was pushed out by a strong force, and at the same time as he flew out, with a loud noise, the protective cover where he was originally was completely collapsed.
Countless ghosts roared past Guo Changcheng, there was the sound of flesh being torn apart in front of him, the sound of bones being chewed, and a strong smell of blood came over his face.
But Chu Shuzhi didn't make any more sound.
Outside the line of sight blocked by the black cloth, the sky was full of flames.
