No wonder she said she couldn't let herself out.

Chu Jinsui glanced at the passing crowd, and Chengfeng's figure had disappeared.

The townspeople set up the joss sticks and lit the candles.

The mayor walked to the front of the crowd: "Everyone, the sacrifice begins!"

Ji Hengzhou called her in a low voice: "Run when the chain is released, don't look back."

The goose-yellow figure appeared again, Chengfeng stood at the end across the crowd, and looked at Chu Jinsui. She raised her hand, and a white light flew towards Ji Hengzhou's right hand.

Then the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a playful smile that successfully played a prank.

Chu Jinsui frowned: "No need, your talisman paper should be invalid."

really.

Ji Hengzhou tried to summon the talisman: "What's going on? How do you know?"

Chu Jinsui didn't speak, she looked at the smile on Chengfeng's face, it probably wasn't the first time such a scene happened.

Shattering other people's hopes should also be regarded as an interesting thing for Chengfeng.

Ji Hengzhou was a little anxious: "This is too bad. Didn't you say that nature has your way? Can you leave here? If you don't leave, it will be too late."

The townspeople have already lit the torches, waiting for the mayor's order to light the firewood.

Chu Jinsui withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at the girl in the distance: "I have a solution, you don't have to worry about me."

Only then did Ji Hengzhou feel relieved: "You...be careful."

He frowned. He had never felt that it was very distressing to forget a lot of things like now. If he remembered everything, he wouldn't have to be so passive.

Chu Jinsui looked at the burning torch, but he was not very eager.

Chengfeng is a trustworthy person. She said she would not take away her spiritual power and memory. As soon as she escaped from the memory, Chu Jinsui felt the lost spiritual power return to her body.

She could break the chain whenever she wanted.

But no, it's not that simple.

Even if she unlocks the chain and leaves the mountain now, how will she leave the secret realm?
The key to everything lies in Chengfeng.

Did I overlook something crucial.

Towns, drought, famine, crows, sacrifices...

Is there something she left behind?
It's almost too late.

"The sacrifice is about to begin..." Ji Hengzhou said.

Chu Jinsui turned his head and met Ji Hengzhou's eyes.

He froze: "What's wrong?"

"Click." The chain fell off.

Ji Hengzhou looked at his free wrist in disbelief: "You..."

Chu Jinsui unlocked the chain: "You go first!"

He asked puzzledly, "What about you?"

The townspeople didn't expect the chain to be opened, and they were stunned for two seconds. The mayor was the first to react: "Light it on!"

"Shua!" More than a dozen torches were thrown towards them.

On the ground was a large pile of hay and firewood, which caught fire as soon as they touched the torch.

Chu Jinsui said loudly: "Don't worry about me, this is my way, let's go!"

Ji Hengzhou grabbed her wrist: "No! You will be burned to death! What kind of broken way is this! Are you looking for death!?"

Chu Jinsui looked into his eyes: "Don't worry about me."

Ji Hengzhou's movements stopped.

The dry grass in the outer circle has been burned, and the smoke is billowing, and the fire is getting stronger.

"Burn the witch! Burn the witch!"

"Yes! Burn her to death!"

"Plus the fire!"

The words of the townspeople suddenly changed. They looked towards the center of the flames, and their eyes passed Ji Hengzhou's shoulder.

Chu Jinsui froze and turned his head.

At some point, the person tied to the shelf behind him became Cheng Feng.

The moment they looked at each other, Chu Jinsui suddenly realized that Ji Hengzhou and the townspeople were not the only ones trapped here.

Chengfeng is the only one who has been trapped all the time!
She is the one who can never escape reincarnation.

The smile on the corner of Chengfeng's mouth disappeared, as if he was disappointed and uninterested in her attempt to escape from the chain.

Chu Jinsui seemed to understand the emotion in her eyes. Chengfeng had been watching the villagers sacrifice again and again, and was tortured by the plague again and again.

But why didn't she herself experience everything in her lifetime time and time again.

"You can't leave either, can you?" Chu Jinsui finally understood that she couldn't let herself go, and she couldn't leave either, either because she didn't want to, or because she couldn't.

Chu Jinsui always thought that it was Chengfeng's secret realm that trapped everyone here, but she didn't know that she was the one trapped in purgatory.

Cheng Feng lowered his head and looked at her expressionlessly: "Aren't you leaving yet? You will really be burned to death."

Chu Jinsui saw countless black smoke tightly wrapped around her body, resentment, hatred, and the strong breath could almost extinguish the flames.

Ji Hengzhou held her wrist tightly: "What are you looking at? Go!" He dragged her forward and walked through the flames that hadn't had time to burn.

The townspeople all stood there in a daze, and no one noticed the two who left.

Chu Jinsui broke free from his palm, she couldn't leave, if she left, she really couldn't get out.

Ji Hengzhou looked at her puzzled: "You are really going to die!"

That's right, of course she will die, she is not a spirit body, nor is she the master of the secret realm.

But she can't be stuck here forever.

She took a deep look at Ji Hengzhou, turned around and ran towards the fire.

The key to leaving the secret realm is Chengfeng. This is the best opportunity. Chengfeng was tied there, and she was left in the secret realm by resentment.

If he ran away this time, he would be trapped in the secret realm for a long time, maybe staying here forever.

She rushed into the fire without looking back.

"You're back again?" Chengfeng looked at her as if he was insane. Everyone who had entered the secret realm before would run away without looking back, and then they would become members of the town.

"I have to say, you are really interesting, but it's useless for you to come back. I really have no way to let you go."

Chengfeng said, looking at her with some pity: "It's a pity, you can go back to the town alive after you leave, I didn't lie to you just now, you will really die if you stay here."

Chu Jinsui shook his head: "I know, I'm here to take you away."

Chengfeng's expression cracked, and she couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes: "What do you mean?"

The surrounding fire has grown bigger, and the flames are almost licking Chu Jinsui's ankle.

With the scorching tingling sensation, Chu Jinsui understood in an instant that these karmic fires were used to burn away the black resentment and hatred that had turned into substance on Chengfeng.

This secret realm has been maintained with a delicate balance.

Neither let Chengfeng completely fall into the devil, nor let her be free.

In this way, she was kept awake and sinking, and then when she was about to fall into a demon, she used karmic fire to wash away part of the resentment and hatred.

Chu Jinsui stretched out her hand, and the spiritual power fell on the chain along her fingertips. She wanted to tear off the shackles on Chengfeng's body.

"Don't waste your time, it can't be opened." Chengfeng said, "Do you think I haven't tried it?"

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the flames have burned up along the feet.
