"Yingying, you're awake." Qiu Shui picked up the little girl and gently patted her head.

You Yi was startled, doubtful in his heart: "Can she touch souls?"

The little girl named Yingying pushed her rather indifferently, jumped out of her arms, circled around Youyi again, then stopped in front of him, looked up at him, "I'm asking you something?" !Who are you?"

"Yingying, you can't be rude." Qiu Shui stepped forward and tugged at the little girl.

Yingying patted Qiushui's hand away, and said displeasedly, "Don't touch me."

Qiu Shui withdrew his hand, his expression darkened.

You Yi stared at the little girl's empty chest in a daze, but didn't notice anything strange about Qiu Shui.

According to common sense, after death, no matter what happens to the body, the soul should be complete.Unless the deceased had injured the soul during his lifetime.There is a vacant soul in the girl's heart. It should be that the heart was taken away by extremely cruel means, so that the soul in the heart was also torn apart.

You Yi remembered the dead bodies of children in Bai Qi's stilted building.It's just that he didn't take a closer look, wondering if there was a girl's body without a heart inside.

"Hey, why don't you talk!" Seeing that You Yi still ignored her, the little girl kicked him angrily.But she was too weak, her kicking feet were like cotton balls, fluttering lightly, not even good enough to tickle.

You Yi came back to his senses, gave the girl an apologetic smile, knelt down, looked at the little girl at the same level, and said softly: "Sorry, I was distracted just now. My name is You Yi, how about you?"

"Oh. You have to be careful..." The little girl paused in the middle of her sentence, then yawned, and slowly lowered her eyelids. She didn't move for a long time.

You Yi looked down and found that the little girl fell asleep just like that.He raised his head and glanced at Qiu Shui beside him, "Asleep?"

Qiu Shui hurriedly carried the little girl into the house and put her on the bed.

You Yi looked at the soft bed covered with wool, and thought of the empty wooden bed he was lying on, and suddenly felt a little sour.

Qiu Shui touched the little girl's face lightly, and sighed, "The child's parents were not by her side from birth to death, so she was a bit presumptuous."

You Yi reacted for a while before he realized that Qiu Shui was explaining the girl's behavior. He shook his head, expressing that he didn't mind.

"She is very weak." You Yi leaned against the door and said softly.

Qiu Shui nodded, "Her soul was damaged before she died, she should have been scattered, but this ghost domain kept her."

"Huang Quan kept her?" You Yi was puzzled.

Qiu Shui said: "I don't know how to explain it. Anyway, there are many magical places in this ghost domain. As long as a person is accepted here after death, the soul will not dissipate."

"Accepted?" You Yi was even more confused.

Qiu Shui nodded, "Yes, not every dead person can enter the ghost domain. If you come in, it means that you are accepted by the ghost domain."

You Yi was in a fog.On the bed, the little girl frowned and struggled uncomfortably. Qiu Shui hurriedly hugged the girl into his arms and comforted her with his hands.

You Yi looked at Qiu Shui's loving actions, and expressed the question in his heart: "You seem to care about her?"

Qiu Shui looked at Yingying, who had an empty chest, with worried eyebrows.Hearing You Yi's words, he smiled wryly: "She is my daughter."

Hearing this, You Yi frowned.He still remembered everything he saw in the illusion on the mountainside.The relationship between Bai Qi and Qiu Shui is extraordinary.

Who is the girl's father?

You Yi thought of the child's corpse in that room again.

You Yi asked: "Does she have any other relatives?" The person who can form a Taoist couple with a Taoist nun and give birth to a child should not be an ordinary person.Taoist monk, how could he allow others to treat his daughter like this?

Qiu Shui was quiet and did not answer.

After a while, she put down Yingying who was sleeping soundly, came out from the back room, and said, "Master Mozun, shall I take you to visit the Ghost Realm?"

You Yi glanced at Yingying in the room, wondering, "Now? But she..."

Qiu Shui said: "Don't worry about her, her soul is still unstable, and every time she wakes up briefly, she will sleep for a long time."

You Yi narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Okay, let's go."

Qiushui's wooden house is very spacious, You Yi followed her around the dark corridor for a long time before walking out of the yard.

Outside the courtyard, the sky and the earth were dim, and the surroundings seemed to be covered with a layer of black gauze, making it difficult for people to see clearly.Only the scarlet moon above the head was dazzling.

"The moon is quite bright, but it doesn't work very well." You Yi complained as he looked at the dark world.

Qiu Shui covered his mouth and laughed, and corrected, "This is the sun!"

You Yi was taken aback for a moment, squinted his eyes and took a closer look at the thing, and sure enough he didn't see the shadow that the moon should have, "It's my blindness."

Qiu Shui shook his head with a smile, took out two portable lamps from the door, lit them up with spells, and handed one of them to You Yi, "Take the lamp and illuminate the way. This is how it is here, there is no day, it will always be night .”

No wonder Qiushui's wooden house didn't have a single window, it turned out to be unnecessary.

You Yi took the lamp, held it up to look at it, and found that this lamp was also very strange, what was burning was not lamp oil, but a remnant soul like catkins.

"Does Huangquan rely on hunting remnants for food and clothing?" You Yi asked casually, remembering the medicine he drank.

"Basically." Qiu Shui said: "There is nothing in Huangquan, only these things are left. Big ghosts practice by sucking little ghosts, and little ghosts collect remnants of souls to live. The law of the jungle preys on the strong. It's the same everywhere." Finally, she urged. : "Let's go quickly."

You Yi nodded, "It turns out that the souls here can still be cultivated. Does that mean that the stronger the devoured souls, the faster their cultivation will improve?"

"Almost." Qiu Shui said: "However, we must do what we can. If you eat too strong a soul, if you don't digest it well, you will be backlashed."

"Really?" You Yi smiled, and said casually: "Then you have to weigh it if you want to eat me."

Qiu Shui's expression changed, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes.She stopped answering, but urged again: "Let's go."

"You lead the way." You Yi raised the corners of his mouth, and followed her onto the dark path.

After walking for a while, You Yi was a little curious, so he used a lamp to illuminate the land under his feet, and found that the land here was all pitch-black scorched earth, which had been cracked and warped after being scorched by the fire.On the scorched earth, there is no life.

You Yi is even more sure that this is Taoli.It's just that he doesn't understand why in just 100 years, this place has become a ghost city that allows humans and ghosts to coexist?

You Yi followed Qiu Shui, seeing that he still couldn't see the destination, he chatted with Qiu Shui: "When did you come here?"

Qiu Shui thought for a while and replied: "Five or six years ago. There was no time here. All the people... no, all the ghosts lived in a muddle. I still feel like I just came here." After explaining, Qiu Shui fell silent, a little sad.The daughter she gave up everything to protect died in the end, and she died so badly.

You Yi sighed, not knowing how to comfort her for a while.After a long silence, he continued to ask: "What about you, how did you enter the ghost realm?"

She said that there are ghosts in Huangquan, but she is an exception.You Yi wanted to know why she could become this accident.

Qiu Shui glanced at him and shook his head, "I don't know, I was hunted down and hit the barrier, and when I wake up, it will be like this."

"Tsk, it's my enchantment that hurt you." You Yi sighed.

Qiu Shui smiled, and a cold light flashed across his eyes.

"It's ok."

After You Yi asked what he wanted to ask, he stopped talking, and Qiu Shui also fell silent.

The two walked a certain distance one after the other, and Qiu Shui stretched out his hand and pointed forward, "No, it's here. The core area of ​​the whole ghost domain, the ghost king city. How about it, it's spectacular."

You Yi looked along her fingers, and a majestic city appeared in front of his eyes.The castles and pavilions in the city are row upon row, with painted corners and cornices, all of which are like the world.

However, this whole city is not a real scene, but...

"Illusion?" You Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Qiu Shui.

Qiu Shui clapped his hands and praised: "As expected of the Lord Demon Cultivator, you can tell the mystery at a glance. This entire Ghost King City is indeed a fantasy world made up of illusions, but it is also very spectacular. Want to go in and have a look?"

"Can you enter?"

"Of course!" Qiu Shui said with a smile, with a harmless face.

You Yi squinted his eyes, looking at this huge illusion hidden in the darkness.Although Ghost King City is in an illusion, the ghosts guarding the city gates are genuine.Who knows how many ghosts like this are out there.to see?He went in, can he come out?

Seeing You Yi remained unmoved, Qiu Shui's face changed slightly, "Are you... not interested?"

You Yi suppressed the vigilance in his eyes, closed his bright eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "How come, since you're here, you must take a look. You lead the way."

"Follow me." Qiu Shui led You Yi into the Ghost King City.

When entering the city, the ghost guarding the city gate stared straight at You Yi, as if looking at a rare treasure, and at the end, asked Qiu Shui sourly: "You have made a lot of money recently, right?"

Qiu Shui turned around and glared at the gatekeeper, then dragged You Yi away quickly.

You Yi entered the Ghost King City, seeing this bustling scene no different from the world, he couldn't help but be amazed.Restaurants, shops, street stalls, north-south traveling merchants, everything that can be found in the human market, there is no shortage here.

"Hey, the street lights are on." You Yi looked at the colorful lanterns that filled the street like a river of stars, and said casually, "How many souls have been burned. See how bright this city is, just like those nightless nights in the world." Like."

Qiu Shui didn't realize that there was something in You Yi's words, so he said: "It's quite bright, let's look ahead." Then, he dragged You Yi's arm and walked forward.

Along the way, many ghosts came forward and wanted to talk to Qiushui, but Qiushui waved them away.

You Yi looked at the tall buildings that were getting closer, and stopped.

Qiu Shui said: "What's wrong?"

You Yi seemed unintentional and said: "I'm tired. I don't want to go shopping anymore, let's go back."

"No!" Qiu Shui panicked, his voice raised several degrees higher than usual.

"Why?" You Yi squinted his eyes, looking displeased.

Qiu Shui looked at the Ghost King's Palace, which was close at hand, and explained to You Yi: "We're almost done shopping. It's rare to come out, so let's take two more steps."

You Yi frowned, "If I say, no?"

Qiu Shui's face turned cold, and he said gloomyly: "I can't help you!"

You Yi's tone was cold: "Are you threatening me?"

You Yi took a step forward and grabbed Qiu Shui's wrist.Qiu Shui felt a coldness in his heart, as if ice scum was flowing in his blood.

You Yi sneered and said, "Do you know what happened to the person who threatened me last time?"

Qiu Shui's face turned pale, and he said tremblingly, "I saved you, you can't repay your kindness with revenge."

"Revenge for kindness?" You Yiqing snorted, "We demons heretics like to repay kindness and revenge! What's more, you didn't really save me. Tell me, what do you want to do by bringing me here?"

At the end, You Yi replied coldly: "If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you, and then I will tear your daughter's soul into pieces and make soup to drink!"

Qiu Shui trembled all over, and shouted: "How dare you!"

"I don't dare." You Yi laughed mischievously, and finally threatened: "Don't waste time. Since you are a disciple of the sect, you must have heard that my temper is very bad."

Qiu Shui shrank and said, "I just want to show you."

You Yi frowned, "Tell the truth!"

Qiuyue lowered her head, "I said, you will kill me."

You Yi laughed, and said sarcastically: "Since you have said that you are old friends with me, how could I be so ruthless."

"I'm not lying to you." Qiu Shui explained, "I've really seen you before!"

You Yi nodded, there is nothing wrong with it, "But I don't want to hear this right now."

Qiu Shui was dumb and stopped talking.

"Don't talk? Then let me speak!" You Yi took a step closer, grabbed Qiu Shui's arm, and said coldly: "Since you know this is Taoli, and you are sure that I am You Yi, then you must know that a hundred years ago It was I who paid the price of my life to seal this place. Seeing me coming, I was not surprised at all, and even saved me and took me to the Ghost King City." After a pause, You Yi laughed: "You are right An old friend who only met once, is he so kind?"

Qiu Shui said firmly: "Can't I, I just have a good heart! I am a disciple of the orthodox Yuexu sect of Taoism. I have been familiar with the rules of my sect since I was a child. I take the responsibility of the common people in the world to punish rape and eliminate evil. I never slack off..."

"Okay." You Yi's expression darkened, and he interrupted her, "Don't talk about what you have, tell me your purpose quickly, otherwise, you won't be able to see your daughter."

Qiu Shui was stunned for a moment, his eyes turned red instantly, "It's true that different ways are not conspiring with each other! In the minds of you evil cultivators, do everything in the world have an ulterior motive?"

You Yi was taken aback for a moment, only to hear Qiu Shui complaining while crying: "I kindly saved you, but I was afraid that you would not be able to adapt to the environment here, so I wanted to take you to Huangquan to have a look first, so I even left my own daughter aside. But you say that I want to kill you, and that I have a purpose! Could it be that in your heart, everyone in the world is evil, and no one is worth trusting!"

"Tsk." Seeing that no one was crying, You Yi immediately let go of his hand and took a step back.

Qiu Shui whimpered louder, and You Yi suddenly felt dizzy, and just wanted to find something to stuff her mouth up.While he was at a loss, Qiu Shui's crying stopped abruptly, then he turned around abruptly and ran away!

While running, she yelled: "Here comes the best new soul, come and eat, if you are late, other ghosts will catch you first!"

You Yi stared at Qiu Shui's back, his eyes turned cold.All around, the prosperous illusion suddenly collapsed.

Numerous ghosts showed green faces and fangs, staring straight at You Yi, as if they were looking at some delicacies from mountains and seas.If the ghosts could flow halazi, then their feet might have turned into a vast ocean.

"Damn!" You Yi cursed in a low voice, seeing the tide-like ghosts rushing towards him, he made a quick decision, turned around and ran away!
