black rose of sin city

As a detective, what I hate the most is being played around by the bastard!

Without allowing him to think too much, his body had already reacted first, kicking the mummy off his leg.

Lu Xuan now fully understands what Master Uncle Yun Chuyang said about the "seal". What he released were only evil spirits, but their bodies were still buried under this tree, but judging from the current situation , I'm afraid it can't be buried.

Blood flowed down his calf, and although the wound would heal quickly, a little bloody smell was enough to attract more dead souls.I saw that they began to gather under the tree, some of them came out of the ground, one by one like sprouts that broke the ground, first stretched out a hand, then the whole rotting body, and some crawled in from outside the wall, more and more.

The air was soon filled with the sour smell of corpses, and Lu Xuan felt that she was about to be out of breath, and could only watch helplessly as the mummified corpses with their broken bodies gathered towards him like insects, as if they were ready to feast on him.

Because they died for too long, when the souls guarding this square inch returned to their physical bodies, the fragmented bodies could no longer satisfy them.

Lu Xuan clenched her hands into fists and stepped back step by step until there was no way to go back.

When the first mummy rushed towards him, the rest rushed forward like wolves that had been hungry for a long time.He gritted his teeth, raised his leg and kicked away the first mummy, then quickly grabbed the neck of the other mummy, and twisted the ferocious head off with force.

The sound of bones being crushed didn't seem to scare the other corpses, they still gathered from all directions.

No matter how powerful it is, it is still difficult to deal with so many people. Besides, Lu Xuan's ability can hypnotize creatures, but he has nothing to do with the dead mummy.

After disposing of several corpses with his bare hands, he began to look for a way out, but the surrounding area was already surrounded, and there were still corpses crawling in from outside the wall.Only now did he realize that what Yun Chuyang said was right, that several generations of people in the village were all buried here, and the idea of ​​"sparsely populated" was absolutely farting!

Thinking of Yun Chuyang, Lu Xuan froze for a moment, knocked off the head that was biting his arm, and yelled, "Yun Chuyang!"

If the mummy here is all after the death of the villagers, then Yun Chuyang should also be here, even if there is no corpse, his soul should still be there.

"Yun Chuyang!" He yelled a few times, but there was no response. Lu Xuan gave up, and his body was already covered with wounds of various sizes. Although he knew that such injuries would not kill him, if he continued, Sooner or later, he would be eaten up by these corpses, not even bones left.

"Oh!" Lu Xuan was suddenly bitten on the back, and Lu Xuan groaned in pain. After knocking off the mummy clinging to him, he finally yelled helplessly, "Shen Chuan!"

He swears that this is already his voice full of longing. If he can't call that person, then he has nothing to complain about, at least not during his lifetime. As for after death, he will definitely look for Shen Chuan in his dreams Settlement.

Just when he was about to give it a go, his right eye suddenly jumped. At that moment, he opened his eyes wide and felt that the entire range of his vision was red.

It's not uncommon for the right eye to move, but it has never been as strong as this time.Lu Xuan always had the feeling that although the right eye was on him, it never belonged to him.

At the moment when he was in a daze, his eyes became blurred again, as if ink had been splashed on him, and they were stained with layers of red. Then, a burst of pain seemed to pierce the flesh, and spread from the right eye along the nerve to the right eye. Limbs and bones.

His feet went limp, and he fell to his knees on the ground.

"what--"

The right eye is like a bird that is about to break out of the cage, and the feeling can no longer be described as pain.Lu Xuan covered her right eye with one hand, and firmly grasped the ground with the other hand, trying to find something to stop herself.Now he has the desire to injure himself, and even hopes to die immediately, because the pain greatly exceeds his tolerance, the feeling of being burned is like being corroded——

He raised his head and roared, the pain might not be the most unbearable to him, but something clamored in his body, as if trying to break free from him.

The mummy around him seemed to have the ability to think. The moment he knelt down on the ground, they all jumped on him. Just when Lu Xuan couldn't hold back and fell down, a burst of scorching fire suddenly swept over, instantly burning the mummy around him. clean and dry.

As if drained of strength, Lu Xuan briefly lost consciousness for a while, and when he woke up, he saw Shen Chuan.

Really called him.He thought with lingering fear.

"Lu Xuan, it's okay." Shen Chuan hugged him tightly and kept stroking his sweaty hair, "It's okay."

The still stiff body finally slowly relaxed, Lu Xuan let out a long sigh of relief, and squeezed out a word as soon as she opened her mouth, "Pain——"

Shen Chuan couldn't laugh or cry, and patted his head lightly twice. "I told you not to run around, but you are always disobedient."

Lu Xuan didn't even have the strength to give him a glance, "Ghost knows... so many things will pop up at once..."

"The people in this village have all died a long time ago. They are just bound here and cannot be reincarnated. They usually only come out when the yin is heavy. How did you know that you lured them all out when you came?" Shen Chuan said. Said, wiping his face with his sleeve.

Damn, is that what he elicited? !Lu Xuan was so angry that she didn't want to argue with him.

"Who is that old man? Why is he the only one alive in this village?"

Shen Chuan reached out to wipe the dust off his face again, and said: "This is the reason. He used the energy of the villagers to prolong his life. Now he looks seven or eighty years old, but in fact he may be hundreds of years old." .”

Another fucking monster!Lu Xuan spat, looked down at the wound on her leg, the bleeding had stopped, but the place where she was bitten was black and purple, it was not something fun to bite at first glance.

"Everyone is sick, thinking about immortality all day long, so that people are neither human nor ghost, shit."

Shen Chuan paused, and asked casually, "Don't you want to live forever?"

It did sound very tempting, but Lu Xuan shook her head. "I don't want to. If you live well, one lifetime is enough. If you live poorly, it's even more meaningless not to die."

Shen Chuan didn't speak.

Neither of the two spoke again. After a long time, Shen Chuan asked Lu Xuan, "Is it better? If it's better, let's go first." After speaking, he reached out to pull him.

Lu Xuan grabbed his wrist. "Who are you?"

Shen Chuan frowned, "What's wrong?"

"Don't play dumb with me. Although I was in a mess just now, I haven't reached the point of being blind and deaf." Lu Xuan's chest rose and fell, and she stared at Shen Chuan with serious eyes. He was very familiar with the fire just now.

When Qi Shaowu went to rescue Qi Shaoyang, He Yan's house that burned out of nowhere felt exactly the same as before.

He knew at that time that it was not an ordinary fire, but he didn't know who set it off. He didn't realize it until Shen Chuan came.

Shen Chuan, how many things have you lied to me? ! "It's interesting to play me like a monkey, isn't it?" Lu Xuan sneered.

Without speaking, Shen Chuan slowly withdrew his hand.

"I'm afraid you will hate me if you find out."

"Why should I hate you?" he asked quickly. "What did you do to make me hate you?"

Shen Chuan remained silent.

Lu Xuan suddenly became afraid.

"Shen Chuan, have we met?"

Shen Chuan still looked at him without saying a word.

After waiting for a long time but not getting an answer, Lu Xuan pushed him away abruptly, and stood up from the ground staggeringly.

"Lu Xuan—" Shen Chuan wanted to reach out to help him, but was pushed away roughly.

"If you don't tell me, I will find the answer myself." Lu Xuan turned her head and gave him a cold look, "Just don't explain to me again when the time comes." After speaking, she walked out without looking back , but after walking a few steps, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness again.

Seeing his stubborn appearance, Shen Chuan sighed helplessly.

Under the tree near the entrance of the village, Liu Huo leaned against the trunk, biting a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at the sky boredly.

Counting the time, it's almost there.

Not long after, a person in the distance really walked over slowly.

Liu Huo saw it, spat out the grass in his mouth, and after confirming that it was Guan Junyan, he saw the thing in his hand, and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on his mouth.

Guan Junyan walked over slowly, his body was already wet by the rain, his hair was also wet and drooping on his forehead, his face was expressionless.

"Tsk tsk! How long have you been walking in the rain?" Liuhuo let out a strange cry.

Guan Junyan didn't say anything, and walked around Liuhuo to continue walking.

"You're really good at it—" Liu Huo leaned against the tree, looked down at the thing wrapped in black cloth in Guan Junyan's hand, blood oozed from the cloth and dripped slowly on the ground.

Guan Junyan remained silent, his face as cold as ice.

"Do you want me to help you?" As if on purpose, Liu Huo reached out to grab the things in his hands.

"Don't touch him!" roared, the man's anger made the surrounding air sharp enough to kill.

Although he quickly withdrew his hand, it was still a bit late, Liu Huo curled his lips indifferently, looked down at the small wound on his arm, then raised his head to see the back of Guan Junyan who was leaving in a hurry, and muttered softly, "Everyone is killed, and it's still like this— — how pathetic.”

But Guan Junyan is pitiful, so why isn't he?

"You don't have to go." He called Guan Junyan behind him, who stopped, but did not look back.

Sighing, Liu Huo said again, "He'll be here soon."

Guan Junyan was stunned for a moment, and then he heard Liu Huo say: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there."

He raised his head and saw a figure gradually walking out of the fog in front of him, his expression slowly changing.

A man in a long black windbreaker is holding a black umbrella and walking slowly in the rain.The man wore black-rimmed glasses, but he still couldn't hide his handsome face, and the slightly raised corners of his mouth gave off a lazy and sexy look.

Walking in front of Guan Junyan, he stretched out his hand to put the umbrella on the heads of the two of them, looked at the motionless Guan Junyan, and smiled very kindly.

"Why are you soaking wet?"

Guan Junyan frowned, "Sen—"

Sen is a man's name.No one knows what his surname is, and Sen is not his full name, but the name is not important to him. To him, as long as there is a word to represent it.

Sen lowered his head, glanced at the things in his hands, and smiled faintly.

"As expected, you have never disappointed me, Junyan."

Guan Junyan closed his eyes, the rain dripped from his hair, and slowly ran across his cheeks.

"How does it feel to kill a lover with your own hands?" Mori asked, reaching out and wiping the water off his face with his thumb, as if chatting.

"You don't want to know." Guan Junyan replied coldly, his clenched fists trembling slightly.

Sen smiled slightly.He has always been like this, as if he has never been angry.

Liu Huo was still under the tree not far from the two of them, looking at the seemingly calm but turbulent atmosphere between them, he felt a little sad for a while.

However, he couldn't stop anything.

Suddenly there was a roar in the sky, and the thunder shook the birds in the forest to flee.

"Hate me, don't you?" Sen asked.

Guan Junyan didn't answer, nor nodded or shook his head, but the two of them seemed to know the answer already.

Sighing, Sen looked up at the cloudy sky and took off his water-stained glasses. "The weather doesn't seem to be getting any better."

At this moment, Guan Junyan said suddenly, "Can I take Chuyang away?"

Seemingly waiting for his words, Mori lowered his head, put his glasses back on, looked at him and asked, "And then?"

Guan Junyan's lips trembled slightly, as if trying to suppress his emotions.

"He's dead, what can you do with him? You want to betray me for a dead man?"

"I don't want to betray you!" Guan Junyan interrupted him, "But I can't leave Chuyang! I won't leave him again."

What he owed to Yun Chuyang, he will not be clear in this life or the next life.

The rain gradually began to get heavier, and for a while, except for the sound of raindrops hitting the umbrella, neither of them spoke anymore.

Sen looked at Guan Junyan. This man used to be his most capable deputy, and of course he is now, but it seems that he will soon be gone.

He lowered his eyes, glanced at the cloth bag in Guan Junyan's hand again, a strange flash of light flashed in his eyes, and then looked at Guan Junyan. "Did Chu Yang prophesy for you?"

Guan Junyan froze, then shook his head, "He said that he wouldn't make predictions for people he knew—"

"That's right." Mori nodded, "His principle is not to help people he knows to see the future. No matter who they are, the predictor and the predicted person are against the destiny, and the end will not be much better."

Yun Chuyang has always known this, so he already knew his final result, but being able to die at the hands of the person he loves the most is already the most satisfying moment for him.

Seeing Guan Junyan's pale face, Sen smiled, "But he prophesied for me."

Guan Junyan clenched his fist subconsciously.

At this moment, Sen took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, flicked it, and immediately put the top one in his mouth.

Guan Junyan looked at him for a while, and finally reached out and took out a lighter from his pocket, handed it to him, and lit it for him.

This is an action that the two have done countless times, and it has evolved into a habit.

Taking a puff of cigarette slowly, Sen squinted his eyes to look at him through the thin smoke, as if recalling the past.

"Three years ago, he said that today is the day I die."

"Crack!" The lighter in his hand fell to the ground, and Guan Junyan stared at him in disbelief.

"I have to say, it was an exciting waiting process. I never wished that time would go faster—" Mori laughed, took a deep breath on his cigarette, and dropped the umbrella in his hand. "However, you may not know that once the prophecy dies, the prophecy will be broken."

The heavy rain nearly muffled his voice.

"Everyone wants to change their fate, but they never thought about it. Only when the person who predicts their own fate dies can they really change it." Sen smiled ironically, feeling no joy, but also no sadness, "Death is not terrible, But I still have unfinished business, so—" He didn't say any more.

Guan Junyan was trembling all over, "You—" At this moment, he didn't know whether to hate Sen or himself.

"Don't blame yourself." Sen took off his glasses and looked at him. "You are doing it for his own good. Instead of letting him die at the hands of others, it is better for you to send him a ride. Similarly, instead of letting you live in pain, it is better for you to let him live now." I'll give you a ride."

This is a cruel process in the name of love.

The moment the rain hit him, Guan Junyan finally understood what Sen was going to do, but he hesitated.Just this moment is enough to end everything.

At that time, in order to assist Sen, he did not agree to Yun Chuyang to take him away from the organization. It was the same feeling, and he treated the two completely differently.He loves Yun Chuyang, and only by becoming strong can he protect him, let him live a happy life, and fulfill his promise of never leaving him for the rest of his life, but he still missed the appointment.

However, now they can finally be together without any scruples, and no one can separate them.

"How to deal with them?" Liu Huo came over, looked down at Guan Junyan, who was covered in hoarfrost, and then raised his head to look at Sen.

Sen turned his back to him, as if thinking about something, and took a long time to pick up the umbrella on the ground.When he took out a cigarette and was about to put it in his mouth, he suddenly stopped moving.

Tiny streaks of blood trickled down the wound on his face.In the end, Guan Junyan didn't attack him after all.Sighing slightly, he said to Liu Huo behind him, "Bury them anywhere. But—bury them together."

Liuhuo replied calmly, "Understood."

After Sen left, Liu Huo looked at the man lying on the ground and the things he was holding in his hands. He was a little dazed. He didn't know how long it took before he looked up at the gray sky again, then stretched out his hand and wiped his face. , frowned, and cursed in a low voice: "Damn it! It's raining so much! I'm soaked through—"

People in this village have guarded this tree for generations.

No one knows where this tree came from, and no one knows when it was planted. As time goes by, no one wants to explore these answers. The only thing they have to do is to guard it and slowly The experience of birth, old age, sickness and death.

Shen Chuan raised his head and looked at the tree full of red leaves, with withered branches and leaves still spreading.

At this moment, something approached him.It is the resentful soul of the villagers who are still here.

Even though the body has been burned, the soul is still there.

Undead came from all directions, salivating towards Shen Chuan, the delicious aura emanating from him made the ghosts salivate endlessly.

Looking at the undead crawling to his feet, Shen Chuan frowned, and in an instant, the flames surrounded the surroundings, and after a sharp hiss, he regained his calm.

He turned his eyes back to the tree again, looked at it quietly for a while, and finally stretched out his hand to cover the dry trunk. The next second, flames shot out from his palm, and quickly ignited the whole tree.

But at the same time, a burst of icy cold air suddenly floated over, Shen Chuan noticed it, but did not continue, he withdrew his hand.A few seconds later, the whole tree was frozen, and a layer of white coolness appeared.

Turning around, he looked at the man standing at the door.

How long has passed since this meeting, no one seems to remember.

There were no polite greetings, not even a long-lost glance. Both of them knew each other's temper, so everything that seemed normal to others seemed superfluous.

Sen glanced at the tree behind Shen Chuan, raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "Why, do you want to destroy the thing that proves your existence again?"

Shen Chuan clasped his hands on his chest, "What is 'again'? How many times have you seen it?"

"I don't need to look to know." Sen laughed and walked towards him, "I understand you, in order to achieve your goal, you will use all means."

"That's what we do with each other."

"Where's Lu Xuan?" When he came to Shen Chuan, Sen asked directly.

This was the question Shen Chuan didn't want to answer the last time, so he chose to remain silent.

Seeming to know what he was thinking, Sen chuckled lightly, and there was too much meaning in the smile.

"Are you disrupting his memory so that he can't even remember me?"

"...There is no need for that."

"Then what do you want to turn him into? A trash who can't live without you? Like taking drugs?"

Even though he didn't like these words coming out of Mori's mouth, Shen Chuan still had to admit that some things were indeed as he said.

"Then you'd better let him forget everything he can, otherwise, sooner or later he will hate you."

Shen Chuan looked at Sen and asked, "Is this your kind reminder?"

"No." Sen laughed again, "I just want to watch a good show."

Closing his eyes, Shen Chuan hummed. "Then, I will let you have your wish."

The ice on the tree began to melt little by little, but the dripping water was red, and it accumulated on the ground like blood, which was shocking.

After an unknown amount of time, the old man staggered to the tree, clutching his arms, his shoes and trousers already stained with blood.As if he was afraid of being discovered, he walked and looked around, and when he saw the dying tree, he finally couldn't help but shed tears.

He persevered for half his life, but in the end it was just a fleeting moment, and he had nothing left.

Raising his head, he looked at the leaves that were slowly beginning to sculpt, and felt as if something was being taken away from his body, and his gray hair began to fall off slowly. The dead villagers all stared at him with the same expression on their faces.

He trembled all over, and finally felt a fear stronger than death.This is the crime he committed, the debt he owed, and one day he will pay it back.

At this time, a figure in the crowd caught his attention. Looking at the young woman in the pink cheongsam, the old man couldn't help crying anymore.

"Xiuxiang! Xiuxiang, I'm sorry! Xiuxiang—"

They used to love each other very much, Xiuxiang always thought that she could spend a lifetime with him, but she didn't know that a lifetime was far from enough for him.

Her love still couldn't match the temptation of staying in this world to him.

"Xiuxiang, I can finally come to you—" the old man tremblingly stretched out his hand to the woman.

He regretted it, really regretted it!

However, it was too late.

Xiuxiang glanced at him with no expression on her pale face. When the old man was slowly surrounded by villagers, she turned around and left slowly in the opposite direction.

She broke the lock, and Lu Xuan just broke the seal on the lock.She has been here for so many years and has been waiting for this opportunity.

She hated him, but after all, she didn't go to the point of killing him with her own hands.The two of them, don't know which one is more pathetic?

"Xiuxiang?! Xiuxiang—"

The hoarse screams pierced the silence of the village for decades. From now on, this place will really be quiet forever.
