Seeing that he seemed to be in a state of depression, Xie Lian thought for a moment and tried to comfort him, “Actually, this isn’t a big deal…”

Mu Qing sneered and said, "I was right! Is it interesting? Are you happy watching my performance? Hmm? "

Speak frankly, tear off the fake leather and pull off the real leather. Nanfeng, no, Fengxin, who was standing by, was also slightly embarrassed at first, but he couldn't stand what he said anymore and said, "What's your tone?"

Mu Qing was pale and thin-skinned. When the blood rushed up, it was very dazzling. His whole face turned red. He turned his head suddenly and said, "What's the tone? Don't forget that you are also one of the jokes. You have provided him with fun for so long without any complaints. I am not as careless as you!"

Xie Lian said, “I don’t want to see you make fun of me.”

Feng Xin also said: "Don't think that others are as petty as you are. You got into trouble and were put in prison, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still wanted to help you..."

Mu Qing said, "Ha, thank you so much. But wasn't it your son who caused me to be in prison? What! Do you want to fight? You dare to give birth and let others say nothing!"

When he mentioned his son, Feng Xin really wanted to beat him to death, but unfortunately, the three of them were now wrapped in spider silk and couldn't move. They had lost all their grace and temperament, and could only curse at each other. Seeing Feng Xin's face flushed with anger, Xie Lian was afraid that he would start cursing in a fit of anger, so he twisted his body and rolled over to Mu Qing's side, saying, "Mu Qing, Mu Qing? Can you turn over a little?"

Mu Qing stopped cursing, took a breath, and said, "What do you want to do?"

Xie Lian said, “Feng Xin is too far away from me for me to roll over. Since these spider silk threads can be bitten through with teeth, I will try to see if I can untie your hands first.”

Mu Qing stared at him for a long while, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he looked up at the sky and said, "No need."

Xie Lian said helplessly: “I really want to help.”

Mu Qing said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is worth a lot of money, I can't afford to trouble you."

Feng Xin cursed, "Fuck me! Why are you still being so naughty at this time! Does he owe you money for helping you save him?!"

Mu Qing raised his head suddenly and asked, "Who wants his help? Xie Lian! Why do you always show up at times like this?!"

Xie Lian was slightly startled, and suddenly vaguely remembered that Mu Qing had asked him this question a long time ago. What did he answer at that time? He didn't remember. He said, "What's wrong with showing up at this time?"

Mu Qing lay back down and said, "I don't need your help anyway."

Xie Lian asked, “Why? Sometimes you just need help from others to get through it.”

Feng Xin said, "Don't pay attention to him. He's so arrogant and thinks it's embarrassing to ask you to help him."

Over there, Mu Qing Feng Xin was pinching the dead butterfly that was emitting a faint silver light and dancing around Xie Lian leisurely. He remembered something and immediately changed the subject, saying, "Stop arguing. It would be a joke if someone saw us. Someone will come to find us later."

Mu Qing said: "This is a damn place where no one can help. Who will come to save us? Unless it is..."

Before he finished his sentence, he thought of someone and got stuck. Feng Xin asked directly, "Did Xueyu Tanhua come with you?"

Mu Qing asked doubtfully, "You trust him so much? Will he come?"

Xie Lian said confidently, “He will come.”

Although Hua Cheng's behavior along the way was a bit strange, and he almost suspected that the person next to him was a fake Hua Cheng, his intuition told him that it was impossible. Mu Qing asked again: "Even if he comes, can he find this pit?"

Feng Xin suggested: "Why don't we roar a few more times? More people will roar louder together."

Xie Lian said, “No need. We can just sit, no, lie down and wait. Because there is a red line between Hua Cheng and me…”

Before he finished speaking, he saw Feng Xin and Mu Qing's faces twitching, as if a bug had crawled into their ears. Xie Lian: "...Why are you guys looking at me like that? Don't get me wrong, the red line I'm talking about is not some exaggerated thing like 'the red line of fate'. It's just a magic weapon, a magic weapon."

The two men stopped twitching. Feng Xin said, "Oh, so that's how it is." Mu Qing asked suspiciously, "What kind of magic weapon is that? What's its use?"

Xie Lian said, “It’s quite useful. It’s like a red thread tied between our two hands, with an invisible connection in the middle. One person can follow this red thread to find the other person, and as long as there is still breath, the red thread will never break…”

Before he finished speaking, the two men couldn't stand listening any longer and interrupted him, saying, "Is there any difference between this and the 'red thread of fate'? They are basically the same thing!"

Xie Lian was stunned for a moment, and said, “No way. It’s different!”

Mu Qing said: "Think about it yourself, what's the difference? They are very similar, okay!"

Xie Lian thought about it carefully, and then he realized that it was true! The more he thought about the definition and function of this magic weapon, the more he felt that it was similar to the so-called "destiny red line". Just when he thought he couldn't think about it anymore, a voice came from above, saying, "Brother? Are you down there?"

Upon hearing this voice, Xie Lian felt relieved and immediately raised his head, saying, “Sanlang! I’m here!”

Then he lowered his head and said to the other two people at the bottom of the pit: "Look, I told you he would come."

Seeing him smiling, Feng Xin and Mu Qing's expressions were very subtle. Hua Cheng didn't stick his head out, but the three of them could hear his helpless voice: "Brother, I told you not to run around. What should I do now?"

Hearing his tone, Xie Lian was startled, then he stopped looking happy and said, “Ah, is this spider silk very tricky? Can’t it be cut through even by Evil Life?”

He seemed to hear Hua Cheng say, "It's not this thread that's tricky..." but he wasn't sure if he had said it. After a while, Hua Cheng said calmly, "E Ming is not in a good condition right now."

Xie Lian felt strange. E Ming was quite energetic last time, why was he in such bad condition now?

Mu Qing snorted at the side, "You don't need to ask him, how could Scimitar Erming be in a bad state? It's obvious that he doesn't want to help and find excuses."

Xie Lian said, “Don’t say that.” Rather, he thought it was more likely that E Ming had been taught a lesson, and Hua Cheng would not allow it to come out. Just as he thought of this, a shadow flashed above him, and the next moment, a figure in red landed silently beside Xie Lian, leaned down and held his hand. Xie Lian took a closer look and hurriedly said, “San Lang, why did you jump down too? Be careful of those spider silks!”

As expected, the white silk at the bottom of the pit attacked violently. Hua Cheng did not even turn his head, and waved his hand casually. Hundreds of silver butterflies protected him behind him, forming a butterfly formation, and entangled with the spider silks. Hua Cheng tore off the white silk that bound Xie Lian, put his left hand around his waist, and shook off a red umbrella with his right hand, saying, "Let's go!"

The remaining two people were shocked to see that he had no intention of coming to rescue people. They asked, "Did you forget something?"

Before Xie Lian could say anything, Hua Cheng turned around and said, "Oh, I forgot."

After saying this, the heart wrapped in spider silk flew straight to him and fell into his hands. Hua Cheng handed the sword to Xie Lian and said, "Brother, your sword."

“…”

The "forgotten" turned out to be this. Feng Xin and Mu Qing said, "Hey!!!"

Hua Cheng hugged Xie Lian tighter, swung his right hand, opened the red umbrella, and said, "Brother, hold on to me!" The umbrella actually took the two of them up in the air. Xie Lian hugged him tightly as he was told, and flew two feet above the ground. Hearing the two people below shouting, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "I won't forget it!" He threw Ruo Xie out with his right hand. The white silk rolled up the two large white cocoons at the bottom of the pit a few times each, and brought them out of the pit together. In mid-air, Feng Xin said again, "Wait! Wait! I have something left below!"

Xie Lian shouted from above, “What is that?”

Feng Xin said: "A sword! It fell in the corner!"

Xie Lian looked down and, sure enough, he could vaguely see a sword handle in the white silk in the corner, so he asked Ruo Xie to extend a section and wrap the sword around it, bringing it out together. At this point, all four of them finally returned to the ground.

Ruo Xie dropped the two thick cocoons on the ground, and immediately retracted itself to Xie Lian's wrist and coiled itself up, as if frightened by the white silk that looked a bit like it, but more ferocious and evil, and trembled. Xie Lian comforted it while holding his heart and cutting the spider silk on the two people. As soon as Feng Xin and Mu Qing could move, they immediately jumped up and pulled the spider silk frantically. Xie Lian handed the sword that Ruo Xie brought up to Feng Xin, looked down, and asked curiously: "Is this... Red Mirror? Nanfeng, has your general repaired this sword?"

He said it casually, and realized something was wrong right after he said it. Feng Xin and Mu Qing were still in the form of "Nan Feng" and "Fuyao", but Xie Lian accidentally forgot that their identities had been exposed, and was still subconsciously playing along with them. Although the original intention was to be considerate, this consideration did not work well at this moment, and the two of them were silent for a while.

Feng Xin couldn't hide his expression, and his face showed embarrassment. He turned back to his original form, took the sword and said, "...It's fixed. After all, there are many ghosts in Tonglu Mountain, so it will be more convenient to use it."

Xie Lian glanced at the culprit who had shattered the red mirror, coughed lightly, and said, “Thank you for your help.” After all, it was not easy to repair something that had been broken into pieces.

Mu Qing also transformed back to his true form, brushed off the spider silk on his sleeves, and said, "It's good that it's fixed. After all, most demons and monsters can disguise themselves. If you don't like to use your brain, you can always use a red mirror to avoid being deceived."

Feng Xin was unhappy: "Who are you secretly calling brainless? Do you think I can't hear it?"

Here it comes again. Xie Lian shook his head and said to Hua Cheng, "Sanlang, I ran too fast just now and left you behind. I'm sorry."

Hua Cheng put away the umbrella and said, "Nothing. I just hope brother won't run like this again."

Xie Lian smiled, and suddenly saw Mu Qing glance at Hua Cheng, his eyes froze, his face looked a little strange, and he changed the topic: "Mu Qing? What's wrong with you?"

When he asked this, Mu Qing immediately came back to his senses, looked at him, and said, "Nothing. I've never seen Xueyu Tanhua like this, it's just strange."

Xie Lian didn’t quite believe this explanation. Although this was probably the first time Mu Qing had seen the complete form of Hua Cheng, it wasn’t like he had never seen a sixteen or seventeen-year-old Hua Cheng before. The difference between the two appearances of Hua Cheng wasn’t that big, so why would he have such a look in his eyes?

The four of them walked out of the cave, and after a few steps, Feng Xin asked in astonishment: "...What is this place?"

Mu Qing was also confused and asked, "What's going on?"

They had just been trapped at the bottom of the spider silk pit and had no chance to explore the outside world. Therefore, when they came out and saw the caves and statues one after another, they were extremely shocked to think that there was such a mysterious place under the snow-capped mountains.

Xie Lian said, “This is a cave of all gods.”

Mu Qing looked around and murmured, "I wonder how many years and efforts it took to build this cave. It's really... really..."

He seemed to have no words to describe it. Xie Lian could understand his feelings. After all, the cave was used for cultivation and worshipping gods. His parents had also opened a cave for him. No priest could not be shocked when seeing such a large-scale cave of gods. If he could worship a statue of himself in such a place, it would definitely greatly improve his realm.

Feng Xin wondered, "What kind of gods are worshipped in this cave? Why do all of them cover their faces?"

Xie Lian said, “Of course, it’s because he doesn’t want to be seen by later comers like us.”

Mu Qing said, "That's strange. You could just smash the head of the statue, why do you do this? If you really want to see, a thin veil can't stop you at all."

As he spoke, he was about to unveil the nearest statue. Before Xie Lian could speak out to stop him, he saw a flash of cold light, and a curved silver blade was suspended less than half an inch in front of his finger.

The sudden murderous intent instantly made the atmosphere between the four people tense. Feng Xin asked vigilantly: "What is this for?"

Although the blade was in front of him, Mu Qing showed no fear at all, and said, "Isn't your scimitar in good condition? How can it be 'in bad condition'?"

Hua Cheng stood behind him and said slowly, "Hasn't anyone taught you not to move things when you are on someone else's territory?"

Mu Qing said: "This is not your territory, how can you be fair?"

Hua Cheng said calmly: "I just don't want to cause any more trouble. After all, this is Tonglu Mountain, and no one knows what will happen once the veil is lifted."

Mu Qing said, "How can a arrogant person like Xueyu Tanhua be afraid of trouble?" As he spoke, he moved his wrist down to touch the lapel of the statue again. The blade of the scimitar Erming also moved down, and they met again.

Mu Qing said: "I'm not going to uncover his face this time, I just want to take a look at the stone, why did Xueyu Tanhua stop me?"

Hua Cheng smirked and said, "Stop you from getting into trouble."

Xie Lian stepped in between them and said, “Stop, stop. They built a grotto here to worship some god, and we don’t have to see it. We shouldn’t stay here for long. Let’s get out first. Don’t forget, we all have important things to do.”

Hua Cheng stared at Mu Qing's hand and said, "Since brother said so, then I won't care if he stops first."

Xie Lian said, “Mu Qing, stop it.”

Mu Qing glared at him and said, "Are you kidding me? Why didn't he stop first? What if I stop and he doesn't?"

Between the priest and the ghost, Feng Xin naturally chose to stand on the side of the priest and said, "At most, we can only accept both sides to stop at the same time."

Hua Cheng refused to give in and said, "You are just wishful thinking."

Seeing that neither side was willing to back down, Xie Lian placed his hand on Mu Qing’s arm and said gently, “Mu Qing, let it go. After all, you were the one who started it, so you should let it go first, okay? Just give me some face? I promise that if you let it go, San Lang will keep his promise.”

Although Mu Qing was not convinced, after a long stalemate, he slowly withdrew his hand and returned to the road. At this point, as if a taut bowstring had finally loosened, Xie Lian also breathed a sigh of relief. There happened to be another fork in the road ahead, so he asked Hua Cheng: "Which way do you think we should go this time?"

Hua Cheng seemed to choose a road at random and said, "This way."

Feng Xin and Mu Qing walked behind them and seemed to be arguing again. During the break, Mu Qing asked, "How did you choose? Why are you walking this way?"

The two people in front turned around and said, "Just pick it at random."

Feng Xin frowned and said, "How can you just choose this? You'd better not walk around blindly, or you'll be led into a trap again."

Hua Cheng smiled and said, "Even if we fall into a trap, I have a way to bring Your Highness out. You can follow me, or you can leave on your own. But to be honest, I don't really want to save you again."

"you……!"

Hua Cheng spoke like this. No matter how polite the smile on his face was, it still felt fake. The faker the smile, the more angry he was. Feng Xin was so angry that he drew his bow. Xie Lian knew that he would not really do it, so he said, "I'm sorry, Feng Xin. But in this situation, it doesn't matter which side we go."

Hua Cheng laughed and said, "Horrible, terrible. Looks like I need to walk away." He raised his eyebrows at Xie Lian and walked away. Xie Lian knew that he just wanted to stay away from the two people behind him, so he smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to follow him, Mu Qing suddenly raised his hand and grabbed him. Xie Lian turned around and asked curiously, "Mu Qing? What's the matter?"

Unexpectedly, Mu Qing didn't say a word, grabbed Xie Lian and ran towards another road, shouting, "Go!"

Hua Cheng in front also sensed something was wrong and turned around. Feng Xin had already punched the stone wall, and several large rocks fell down, blocking the road. The two of them quickly stepped forward and in a flash, they slapped more than fifty talismans on the fallen rocks. In this way, Hua Cheng and the three of them were separated by the pile of rocks.

It turned out that the two of them were not fighting each other, but had planned to launch a surprise attack! Xie Lian was stunned and asked, "What are you doing?"

He broke away from Mu Qing and wanted to see Hua Cheng who was trapped inside by them, but Feng Xin tripped him. He and Mu Qing each grabbed one of his arms and dragged him away, saying as they ran: "Hurry up! Those talismans won't last long!"

Mu Qing scolded, "Why are you still asking? Can't you see that he's weird?!"

Xie Lian asked, “What’s so strange about that?”

Mu Qing said, "I think you are really stupid. He has the word weird written all over his body, but you are blind and can't see it!"

Feng Xin yelled, "Stop talking and run!!! Damn, it looks like a dead butterfly is chasing us!"

Mu Qing shouted, "Seal the hole!"

So Feng Xin ran and fought all the way, and several cave entrances were blocked tightly by the rocks he knocked down. The two dragged Xie Lian through the winding underground corridor at a high speed. Xie Lian was almost dizzy from the road and shouted, "Stop! Stop!"

After running for a long distance, the two stopped to catch their breath. Taking advantage of this gap, Xie Lian asked, “No, you two, why did you suddenly drag me along? Did you find anything?”

Feng Xin, still holding his knees with both hands and breathing heavily, said, "Tell him to tell you again!"

Mu Qing straightened up and said to Xie Lian, "Is it so obvious that you haven't noticed it yet? The bead! Do you remember that bead?"

Xie Lian: "What beads?"

Mu Qing said word by word: "The Lantern Festival, the God-pleasing Warrior Clothes, the pair of crimson coral bead earrings, the bead you lost!"

“…”

Xie Lian couldn’t remember for a long time. He pinched his earlobe and asked in confusion, “Were my earrings red coral beads? Have I ever lost them?”

Mu Qing's mouth twitched, and he said angrily: "You two wrongly accused me of stealing the beads. How could you not remember such a thing?"

Xie Lian said, “After all, it’s been eight hundred years…” Feng Xin retorted, “Stop talking nonsense. No one has ever wrongly accused you of stealing it. You’re the one who’s being suspicious!”

Xie Lian waved his hands and said, “Stop arguing. Why are you suddenly telling me about that bead?”

Mu Qing said, "Because the bead was found! Did you see the red bead that Hua Cheng used to tie his hair?"

Xie Lian opened his eyes wide: “You mean that is…?”

Mu Qing said firmly: "That's right!"

“…”

So this was the reason why Mu Qing had a strange look on his face when he saw Hua Cheng just now. Xie Lian asked, "Why is the red coral bead in his possession? Are you sure you remembered it correctly?"

Mu Qing interrupted him and said, "I have been looking for that bead for a whole year, and I have been looking for it since then. I will not make any mistakes even if others make them!"

Xie Lian put his hands up in his sleeves, thought for a moment, then frowned and said, “I still think you might have seen it wrong. There’s no reason for that pearl to be in his hand? Don’t red coral pearls of good quality all look pretty much the same? And San Lang has always liked collecting rare treasures. He even has antiques that are thousands of years old.”

Mu Qing nodded and said, "Okay, okay. You think I saw it wrong, right? Okay, then take a look at this."

He stood beside a statue, and as he spoke, he suddenly pulled down the veil on the statue's face and said, "Then look at what this is. You can't be mistaken, can you?"

The moment the veil was pulled down, Xie Lian glanced over and his pupils suddenly contracted.

There was nothing horrible or deformed about the face of the statue. It was a smiling young man with a kind face and a cheerful look. However, when Xie Lian looked at this face, a layer of chills suddenly appeared on his scalp.

How could it not be horrifying? That face looked exactly like Xie Lian's!

Looking at the statue face to face from such a close distance was like looking into a mirror. Even the originally kind smile became strange. Xie Lian couldn’t help but feel his scalp tingling, and said, “This…”

Mu Qing said coldly: "Are you still going to say you saw it wrong?"

Xie Lian managed to utter a few words with great difficulty: “…Why is there a statue of me here?”

Mu Qing said, "One? More than that. Just watch carefully."

As he spoke, he pulled off the veil on the face of another statue. This face was also Xie Lian's!

I pulled off the veils on the faces of five or six statues in a row, and they were all exactly the same!

Mu Qing said: "This is indeed a cave of all gods, but in fact, there is only one god enshrined here."

It's all him!

His own face was everywhere, and Xie Lian seemed to be in a psychedelic and strange dream. After a long time of confusion, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Wait, Mu Qing. You didn't have the opportunity to see the faces of these statues before? Didn't he stop you from pulling off the veil just now?"

Mu Qing snorted, "I don't even need to look at the faces of these statues to know that they are carved of you."

Xie Lian asked, “How do you say that?”

Mu Qing crumpled up a pile of veils and threw them to the ground. Veins on his forehead bulged slightly. He said, "Why? Because back then, I was responsible for all your clothes, accessories, and daily life. I washed and mended your clothes. There was no other one of your clothes that was the same. These stone statues were carved too meticulously. Everything was carved on them. They were exactly the same. Of course, I knew whose face belonged to whom as soon as I saw the clothes!"

"..." Xie Lian covered his forehead and began to recall Hua Cheng's strange behavior along the way. Feng Xin said at the side: "He didn't let us see these statues, which means he knows very well what's strange about them. I'm afraid that the story about an avalanche and accidentally falling in is nonsense. He must know where this place is."

Mu Qing said, "Not only that, I think he might have thrown us into that pit full of spider silk. He really wanted to kill us."

Xie Lian asked, “But…what’s going on with these statues?”

Looking closely, every statue here is lifelike, with details so fine that it is simply creepy. One can imagine how meticulously the sculptor observed the statues themselves. Xie Lian dared to say that even the statues made by the most prestigious craftsmen in Xianle Country back then did not reach this level. It was as if the craftsman's mind was filled with this person, and his eyes could only see this person.

The three of them were surrounded by these statues with the same face. Feng Xin felt terrified and said, "To be honest... I'm f*cking scared... They look so f*cking similar."

Moreover, there were so many of them. Mu Qing said, “I suspect these statues are props for some evil magic, let’s destroy them first.” He was about to chop them down with his knife, but Xie Lian’s thoughts were pulled back and he stopped him, “Stop!”

Mu Qing looked at him: "Are you sure? This evil spell might be aimed at you."

Xie Lian thought about it and said, “Don’t act rashly. I think the possibility of evil magic is very small.”

Feng Xin said, "I think it's pretty big. I'm really f**king mad... Aren't you scared looking at these things?"

Mu Qing and Xie Lian looked at each other and asked, "What is the basis?"

Xie Lian shook his head and said, “I don’t have any basis for this. It’s just that these statues were carved very well and with great care. I’m afraid it would cause regrets if I rashly destroyed them before I figured out the truth.” He paused and continued, “Sanlang…maybe he’s hiding something from me, but I think it’s at least not something that would harm me.”

Mu Qing was simply incredulous: "...Have you really been bewitched by some kind of bewitching spell cast by him? I think even if he wrote the word suspicious on your face, you would become illiterate."

As the two were talking, Feng Xin suddenly said, "Be careful!"

Xie Lian and Mu Qing were both alert and asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Xin said: "That spider silk is coming again!"

Sure enough, the light from the palm flame shone on the stone wall in front of them. There were large patches of dense white silk attached to the wall. The three of them were all worried that there would be another fierce fight. Unexpectedly, the white silk was not as fierce as the one at the bottom of the pit just now. It was motionless and did not attack. It was no different from ordinary creepers. The three of them waited for a while, and Xie Lian said, "These silk nets don't seem to be alive."

Feng Xin said: "If it's not alive, what's the use of it?"

Xie Lian had something in mind, so he walked forward to check for a moment, and then confirmed it, saying, “They seem to be covering something.”

The three of them came to the stone wall, and Xie Lian tried to pull it, tearing off a large piece of white silk. The white silk was indeed very tough, and it was not easy to tear, but it was not completely impossible to tear off.

The true face of the statue is hidden under the veil, so what is hidden on the stone wall?

The other two also joined the team to tear the spider webs apart. The three of them were responsible for different areas. After a while, a piece of stone wall appeared on Xie Lian's side. He said, "It's a mural!"

On the stone wall, covered by spider silk, there were large murals. The entire stone wall was densely packed with lines, colors, and little people, divided into many small pieces, with different painting styles, some rough, some beautiful, some delicate, and some weird. After looking at it for a while, Xie Lian said: "...This is what he painted."

Mu Qing asked: "Him? Huacheng? Are you sure?"

Xie Lian said softly, “Yes. There are words on it, and they were written by him.”

He pointed at a blood-red little man on the wall, with a bunch of messy, incomprehensible, twisted words written next to it, as if it was written to vent when he was unconscious or in extreme pain. From the words, it can be guessed that the blood-red little man is Hua Cheng himself, but for some reason, he drew himself ugly. Feng Xin took a look and couldn't help but say: "This handwriting... It's so ugly that it blinds my eyes. I dare say that I can write better than him."

If it was uglier than what Feng Xin wrote, then it was hopelessly ugly. Xie Lian was dazzled and didn’t know where to start. But once he confirmed that it was Hua Cheng’s work, it was as if he had suddenly discovered a huge treasure, and his fingertips were trembling slightly. At this time, Mu Qing seemed to have discovered something not far away, and said, “…Your Highness, come here quickly. Come and see!”

Xie Lian finally came to his senses and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Feng Xin and Mu Qing were speechless, and only pointed to a painting on the wall for him to see. That painting was one of the largest on the entire wall, with a tall city tower in the middle, and a sea of ​​people below, surrounding a magnificent platform. The lines were simple, but with just a few strokes, the shape was captured very accurately.

Mu Qing pointed at the center of the screen and said in a trembling voice: "So... it was... him?"

Xie Lian was also staring at that place.

The whole picture is colorless, with only two figures in the picture having colors. There is a little person at the bottom, who is white and seems to be glowing all over, looking up at the sky, stretching out his hands, about to catch a little person falling from the city wall.

And that little man was blood red.

Mu Qing murmured, "... Is it him? Is it him? The kid who fell down during the Lantern Festival? How could it be him? Unexpectedly? Blood Rain Scholar? Is it him???"

Feng Xin patted the two of them frantically and pointed to the side, "There's more behind!"

Xie Lian walked over and saw another painting, which showed a small, dilapidated temple. On the altar was a statue of a deity, with a faint layer of white light all around it. In one hand, it held a sword, and in the other, it held a red umbrella, which it extended downwards. And below, there was an ugly, blood-red little man, who also held a bunch of flowers in both hands and presented them to him.

Xie Lian suddenly felt a slight headache, and he pressed his throbbing temple with one hand and continued reading.

The next picture seemed to depict a battlefield. Large numbers of soldiers were ready to go. A white man was hanging in the sky, holding a long sword, looking majestic. And in the dark army below, there was also a blood-red man, looking up at the man in the sky.

Xie Lian was watching in fascination when Feng Xin's voice rang out in disbelief, "These red ones, they're all the same person, right? They're all him?? They're all Huacheng? Damn... he's been following you the whole time?!"

Mu Qing also looked puzzled, and said, "Not only did he follow us, he also stared at us. He stared very closely. He was everywhere! Look, there is a street here, Buyoulin, and what is this? Beizipo? Oh my God... Could those statues have been carved by him too?!"

Feng Xin was horrified after watching all this. He said, "Fuck... who is this person? He has been watching you for more than 800 years?! He is still following you today? Fuck! This is too scary! Is he possessed?! What does he want to do? An ordinary believer would never do this. What on earth does he want to do?!"

Mu Qing said: "There is a conspiracy... there must be a conspiracy! Keep reading, you will definitely find clues here!"

Xie Lian was stunned.

He stared at the blood-red man on the wall. He hadn’t reacted yet. He only felt that many memories that he had not forgotten but had not paid attention to were rushing into his mind. He could hardly keep up with his breathing. At this time, he heard two people shouting over there. Xie Lian was startled and asked, “What’s wrong again?”

Feng Xin and Mu Qing were both standing in front of a stone wall, and they seemed to have seen something extraordinary. When he saw him going over, Feng Xin quickly turned around, stopped him and pushed him back, saying, "Fuck, don't look!"

Xie Lian: “? What’s wrong? What is that? Why can’t I see it?”

Mu Qing's face also turned black, and he said, "...Don't look at it. There's nothing to see, run!"

The two of them grabbed one of his arms and ran all the way. Xie Lian was dragged by them and said, "What are you doing? I haven't finished looking at the mural yet?!"

Feng Xin ran and cursed angrily: "Don't watch it! You can't watch that kind of thing! Fuck it! I have never seen such a thing! Such a person!!!"

Xie Lian was puzzled: "What have you never seen? What happened to San Lang?"

Mu Qing scolded: "Why are you still calling me Sanlang? Stop it! It's too late to run! Don't get close to him again in the future. He is not normal, he is sick, he is a lunatic!!!"

Xie Lian couldn’t listen any longer and said, “Why are you scolding him like that? I’m not saying that everyone is not normal, okay?”

Feng Xin said: "Don't ask! You don't understand! He is different from us! He is crazy! He, he treats you... treats you..."

Xie Lian asked, “What’s wrong with me? Could you please let me go and let me go back and look for myself?”

One wanted to go back, two wanted to pull it away, and the three were in a stalemate when a cold voice suddenly came from the front: "Didn't I tell you not to touch things when you are on someone else's territory?"

The three of them froze and turned to look. They saw a figure in red standing in front of them. Hua Cheng was leaning against the stone wall, blocking their way. He smiled and said, "Otherwise, I can't say what the outcome will be."

Although he was smiling, his eyes were dark and unclear. He was folding one arm, and with the other hand he was playing with something small.

It was the deep red coral bead that bound the thin strand of hair. The flowing red color of the coral, combined with the red thread between his pale fingers, was equally dazzling and bright.
