Chapter 1023 Dark Ritual!
"The pollution is gone? Or did I fail to trigger it?"
Gu Qingqiu frowned and thought.
"It's Xiao Linzi!"
Xia Hongyao was immediately happy when she saw that Gu Qingqiu was fine: "It must be Xiao Linzi who purified the pollution of rules!"
Gu Qingqiu walked to the window, bathed in the moonlight, and looked outside.
It seems that Lin Baici really took care of it.
I have to say that this alumnus of mine is really strong.
It had only been a short time since the pollution broke out and ended, and he had actually solved it.
"Brother Lin is really amazing!"
Long Miaomiao nodded seriously.
Gu Qingqiu glanced at Xia Hongyao. Don’t be fooled by the girl with high ponytail who always said that she and her alumni were her right-hand men.
But Gu Qingqiu knew that once a major crisis occurred, Xia Hongyao would still seek Lin Baici's opinion first.
If her opinion differed from his, Xia Hongyao would definitely choose Lin Baici.
Because this is the trust that Lin Baici has earned through one brilliant victory after another.
"Let's just wait and see what happens!"
Gu Qingqiu did not take it lightly and waited for another half an hour. Still, there was no contamination, so he could rest assured.
……
Lin Baici came and went without a trace. After smashing the statue of Ksitigarbha, he returned to Goto Mari's house as quickly as possible.
Lin Baici was very brave. He was almost strangled to death just now, but now he just covered his head and fell asleep, not afraid of being attacked again.
The morning light rose from the mountain stream, and the dawn light was like a carpet being spread out by two giant hands, so the whole mountain and plain were filled with golden light.
woof!woof!
The dogs in the village started barking.
Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump!
There was a sound of running outside, and then the sliding door was torn open by Goto Mari's sister.
She was not shy at all. She kicked her feet back, threw off her slippers, rushed into the room, and pounced on Lin Baici.
boom!
The loud footsteps had already woken Lin Baici up, and he also recognized it was the little girl, so he didn't hide.
The little girl grabbed Lin Baici's quilt and pulled it down with force.
Lin Baici's half body was exposed. He pretended to be sleepy and just woke up, and opened his eyes.
"Good morning!"
Lin Baici greeted with a smile.
"what?"
The little girl's expression was suddenly shocked. She jumped up from Lin Baici's body as if she had been electrocuted, then leaned forward, staring at Lin Baici up and down with wide eyes.
About five or six seconds later, she ran out quickly. She was so shocked that she didn't even have time to put on her slippers.
She ran and shouted.
"Mom, he's not dead!"
"He has passed the test of the mountain god!"
Lin Baici didn’t understand what the little girl said, but he could guess the general meaning, which was probably why he didn’t die?
Lin Baici put on his coat and went into the bathroom in slippers.
Before he finished washing up, Goto Mari had already run up to him. Her face, originally nervous but with a hint of expectancy, turned into a smile of relief when she saw that Lin Baici was indeed alive.
"You have passed the test of the mountain god!"
Mari Goto clasped her hands together and bowed.
"What is a mountain god?"
Lin Baici asked with a smile, and after a two-second pause, he added: "Of course, if it's your secret and you can't tell it, then don't tell me."
Lin Baici acted like a considerate and kind man.
Mari Goto hesitated for more than ten seconds, and finally spoke.
"Our village is protected by the mountain god!"
"Anyone who enters our village to stay overnight will be tested by the mountain god on the first night!"
"If you fail the test, the outsider will die!"
Goto Mari bit her lip and explained in a low voice with some embarrassment: "This is the custom of our village. If we violate it, our whole family will be kicked out!"
"So I can't tell you!"
"I understand!"
Lin Baici smiled.
"Now that you have passed the mountain god's test, you can stay in our village for as long as you want!"
Goto Mari was very happy, but there was a hint of sadness between her brows.
The reason why Lin Baici could stay was because he wanted to become her husband, and there was still a test to be faced.
After a simple wash, Lin Baici went to the yard on the pretext of morning exercise and wanted to take a look at the environment.
After he came yesterday, he had no chance to come out.
He went out to smash the Ksitigarbha statue late at night, and came back quickly without paying attention to the surrounding situation.
Lin Baici came out and found that this was a very ordinary farmyard. Everything was normal except that there was no sign of men living there.
"Lin Jun, it's time for breakfast!"
From inside the house, Goto Mari's voice was heard.
Lin Baici walked in and saw Goto's family of three already sitting at the dining table.
Goto Ling was serving soup. When she saw Lin Baici, she nodded. Her attitude was not as cold as yesterday.
Only those who have passed the test of the mountain god, which proves that they have good character, will be accepted by the village.
The breakfast was not very rich and was rather light, but Lin Baici didn't care. He drank the porridge while testing it.
“Can I go for a walk in the mountains?”
“I quite like this kind of scenery.”
When the three Goto heard this, they stopped eating.
Mari Goto looked at her mother.
"That's fine, but you like the truth, so please stay at home for a day and go play after tonight!"
Goto Ling ate the food in small bites and refused Lin Baici's request.
"Ok!"
Lin Baici responded, but he was muttering in his heart.
What are you going to do tonight?
There won’t be another big one, will it?
After the family had eaten, Goto Ling took the farm tools and went to work in the fields.
Goto Mari accompanied Lin Baici.
Not long after, a group of children came to play with Goto Mari's sister.
Lin Baici originally wanted to go and observe, but when the children heard their friends say that a man had come to their house, they all ran over to watch.
"A man looks like this? He feels so beautiful!"
"Men shouldn't be called beautiful!"
"What for?"
A group of children chattered and soon ran over.
Lin Baici discovered that they were all little girls.
Waiting is a very boring thing, especially when you don’t even have a mobile phone, you can only endure it.
At noon, Goto Ling didn't come back, and Lin Baici planned to cook to show his presence, but was stopped by Goto Mari.
"Sorry, Mr. Lin, I have to fast today!"
"fine!"
Lin Baici smiled.
Depend on!
The death row prisoner is executed in the afternoon, and yet he can still have a full meal. You guys are really cruel.
In the evening when the sun set, Goto Ling came back and cooked for only three people.
Goto Mari didn't eat and starved with Lin Baici.
The two of them were just in the room, chatting idly.
At about 8 o'clock, when darkness had enveloped the entire village, Lin Baici heard some noises outside.
He glanced at Goto Mari, then stood up, walked to the window, and then he was stunned!
"what?"
From here, you can see the front door of the house, and there are already several people gathered there.
These men were holding torches, and were all wearing black cloaks that looked like they were made of sheets, completely covering their heads, with only two holes for their eyes.
The hem of the cloak reaches the ankles, covering the body completely, and on the feet are a pair of wooden clogs.
"monster?"
Lin Baici frowned.
wrong,
Looks like a human?
Lin Baici raised his head and gazed into the distance.
The door of a house about ten meters away opened, and a woman in a cloak and holding a torch came out and walked to the door of Goto Mari's house in small steps.
They didn't say anything, just stood there, with only the crackling sounds of the burning torches in their hands.
Goto Mari came over, took a look, and left the room.
Five minutes later, she came back with a set of clothes in her hands.
"Lin Jun, please change your clothes!"
Mari Goto knelt on the ground.
Lin Baici glanced at it and said, "Can we not change it?"
A white robe, a pair of wooden clogs, and a loincloth.
Lin Baici's scalp tingled!
This thing is narrower than a thong, and when you put it on, your butt is exposed.
Even if this was in the Ruins of Gods, Lin Baici didn't want to wear this kind of thing.
"Jun Lin!"
There was a hint of pleading in Goto Mari's voice.
【At least I didn’t leave you naked! 】
"This is no different from being naked!"
Lin Baici complained.
He had no choice but to change into a loincloth and then put on a white robe. Then his whole temperament became mysterious.
Lin Baici put on his wooden clogs and went downstairs with Goto Mari.
He saw a slender figure in a black robe, waiting at the door.
It should be Goto Rei, right?
What would she do if I didn't come out?
Kill me?
When Lin Baici and his daughter came over, Goto Ling didn't say anything and just opened the door.
The red light of the torches shone in.
There were already more than twenty women standing outside, staring at Lin Baici.
Honestly, this scene is pretty creepy.
Goto Ling walked out and turned right, which was obviously the direction leading into the mountains.
Goto Mari pulled Lin Baici, signaling him to hurry up and follow.
The night was dark and the bright moon in the sky was obscured by dark clouds, like the half-open eye of a monster.
On the street, the doors of the houses on both sides opened from time to time. Amid the creaking sound of the door hinges, women in cloaks came out with torches.
Behind some of the people, there were one or two small people following them, who should be their daughters.
These people didn't speak, but quietly merged into the crowd and walked forward.
Leave the town and go into the mountains.
The wooden clogs made a clicking sound as they stepped on the winding and rugged mountain road.
There were birds singing and insects chirping in the woods on both sides, but they were scared away after hearing the footsteps.
Lin Baici tried hard to remember the route, but soon, fog rose in the mountains.
A vast expanse of white fog drifted over with the night wind, blocking everything and reducing visibility to less than ten meters.
Lin Baici was at a loss, but these mountain people were obviously familiar with the terrain and none of them fell behind.
A strange singing voice was heard.
Because of the heavy fog in the mountains, we were blocked, but the orange-red light from the torches we held could penetrate through, so at first glance, it looked like a bunch of ghost lights floating around.
Lin Baici listened to the song and an idea came to him, which activated his ability to memorize it by heart.
After walking for about an hour, a rock wall appeared in front of us. It looked like it had been chopped by a god with an axe. The cross-section was very steep and neat.
There is a hole on the rock wall.
Goto Ling looked back at Lin Baici and went in first.
"Should I show some fear and resistance?"
Lin Baici pondered: "If I just follow them in without saying anything, will it make them suspicious?"
As soon as Lin Baici stopped, the women behind him squeezed over and pushed him into the cave entrance.
There is a cave inside. As you go deeper, the temperature drops and a cool feeling is brought about.
Tick tock!Tick tock!
There were stalactites in the cave and the sound of dripping water, slowly and weakly, like the heartbeat of a dying person.
After walking for another half an hour, the women behind Lin Baici suddenly quickened their pace and surpassed him.
As the flames illuminated the front, Lin Baici saw that it was a large cave.
It's about the size of half a football field.
In the middle of the cave, there is a pile of stones of different sizes with strange patterns on them.
Near this pile of stones, in an area with a radius of about five meters, there is a ground paved with stones and surrounded by a circle, like a pool.
A woman in a black robe and wearing a sheep's skull was kneeling in front of the pile of stones, chanting scriptures.
After the women came in, they didn't say anything. They each found a place, knelt down around the pile of stones, and then began to chant.
When Goto Mari also knelt down, Lin Baici was the only one standing in the entire cave.
For safety reasons, Lin Baici should kneel down, but the problem is that he really doesn't want to do that.
The woman wearing the sheep's skull stood up, looked at Lin Baici, and said a lot of gibberish.
Lin Baici didn't understand and looked at Goto Mari.
"Keep bowing to Her Royal Highness the Dragon Girl. If Her Royal Highness agrees, we can start dating!"
Goto Mari was nervous.
Because the failure rate is very high, only one couple out of ten will be lucky enough to pass.
But this step must be taken, because with the blessing of the Dragon Girl, the rest of your life will be happy and fulfilling.
"If His Highness does not allow..."
Lin Baici estimated that the way to get through this pollution was to get the Dragon Girl's permission to fall in love.
Goto Mari was silent for a few seconds, and promised with a firm expression: "I will die with you!"
"what?"
Lin Baici frowned.
Goto Mari didn't have the chance to speak. The women stood up and surrounded him, not only blocking the way out, but also forcing Lin Bai to resign.
Lin Baici walked forward and stood in front of the fence.
When the sheep-headed woman saw that Lin Baici did not kneel, she immediately growled, "Kneel down!"
The women around also started shouting immediately!
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
The sound echoed in the cave, which was particularly creepy.
Lin Baici still didn't kneel. He looked at the pile of stones and racked his brains to think of a way to crack it.
Never mind, let me hum the song I heard on the way here.
Lin Baici activated the Sanskrit Buddhist sound and began to hum.
With the blessing of memorizing by ear, Lin Baici's humming was almost never out of tune.
He was humming like this originally, intending to buy time to think of a solution, but the goat-headed woman did not urge him any further.
This cheered up Lin Baici.
No way,
Is this the key to passing the level?
Lin Baici immediately began to put his heart into it, activated the performance master, and put on a pious expression.
After singing for about five minutes, just when Lin Baici was getting a little impatient, spring water began to flow out from the cracks between the stone piles.
