Rebirth and then become immortal

Chapter 5 Anode Cathode
  "It has absorbed the souls of several monks, broken several layers of seals, and its spiritual power is unstable. It will be in seclusion for a few days. Although its ears and eyes are still lingering here, under the interference and cover, it will not hear the difference between us. Conversational.”

Xiao Lan twisted his head, his bones creaking in his body. He seemed to be worried about Xiao Qing's fear. He pursed his lips and said, "In this state, I can better deceive it."

"Having said that, I'll keep my story short."

"Qingqing, everyone in the whole village is dead now, including... me."

Although she had prepared herself mentally early, Xiao Qing still choked on her breath. She stretched out her hand tremblingly and put it under Xiao Lan's nose to feel the breath, and put it on his chest to feel the heartbeat.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Lan smiled bitterly, grabbed her hand and put it against the side of his face, as if sighing: "It's great that you are still alive."

"It says that it is a monk from the upper realm. I have only been with it for a short time. Many things are not clear. It usually relies on the bodies of other people in the village to move. Only when it takes action will its true identity be revealed... I am not sure about the black mist. It’s its true form, but I’ve never seen it in other forms.”

"It seems to have been seriously injured and sealed. Although it does not show it, we can get a glimpse of it from its daily words and deeds."

Xiao Qing listened to his analysis, and then saw him holding his finger, with dark light floating in it. Looking closely, he discovered that it was actually twisted characters, squirming on his body as if they were alive.

Xiao Lan followed her gaze and retracted his hand with his fingertips shrinking: "This is the restriction it gave me."

"But why."

Xiao Qing said hoarsely: "Why am I the only one alive?"

"I am useful when I am dead, and you are useful when you are alive." Xiao Lan raised his arm with a smile, and his sleeves slid down along with his movements. Xiao Qing saw that his arms were densely covered with squirming characters, like strips of disgusting words. The flesh insect said, "I am the cathode and you are the anode. If the body is made into a pill, it will definitely improve its cultivation level after taking it. You and I, brother and sister, are the main culprits that brought it here." The culprit."

"That night was not a nightmare."

"It killed people in the village, created a barrier to isolate the place, and made the outside world mistakenly think that this place was hit by a wildfire, burning it into ruins."

"What about dad and mom?! Dad still hugged me today, and mom even gave me rice cereal. I...they..."

Recalling the pink scar on his mother's wrist, Xiao Qing held his head in pain. It was not an illusion, it was real...

"My father and mother actually retained their memories of their lives, but I begged it to erase the memory of my father and mother that night, so that my father and mother thought that they and I had perished in the sea of ​​fire, and that we fought to the death to save you. "

"How can the living coexist with the dead? But you are so young, and your parents can't leave the village, so they put their own blood in the food they cook every day, temporarily blinding your eyes and making you think that you are still alive. Live in a normal village." Xiao Lan covered her eyes, "They are thinking that when you grow up, they will send you to the Salesian Church in the town..."

Xiao Qing sat on the ground, her eyes blank. This night had hit her so hard that she was almost speechless. She didn't know why things turned out like this. She just wanted to live a good life.

"Qingqing, don't worry, brother will protect you no matter what, no matter what." Xiao Qing blocked Xiao Lan's mouth with her hands. Her eyes were filled with tears, but there seemed to be fire burning inside: "Brother, I am not Child, how can I let you take on these things alone?"

She lived for more than twenty years in her last life, and was much older than Xiao Lan. What's more, since it said that she was useful alive, I'm afraid it wouldn't let anything happen to her in a short time. What's more, in its eyes, she It's just a five-year-old child, so how can it hinder its plan?
  "In this life, I have been stealing..."

"No nonsense!" Xiao Lan stopped her words, "You are my sister. From the first time I saw you, from the first time you called me brother, I knew you were my sister. If you don’t drink the bowl of soul-breaking soup, you won’t drink it!”

Xiao Lan was once worried that her sister was too premature, but now she was glad that she did not drink the bowl of soul-breaking soup. Otherwise, how would a real five-year-old child survive in the world if such a thing happened?
  Halfway through the night, Xiao Lan wiped away the tears on Xiao Qing's face: "It has captured several monks in the past few days, and they are from the Tianxuan Sword Sect. It turned those people into puppets, but it left one person's sanity. , I guess it wants to use them to sneak into Tianxuan Sword Sect, after all, the souls of monks are more useful to him than ordinary people."

Xiao Qing listened carefully, and for some reason suddenly thought of Granny Zhang whom he met in the back mountain. It seemed that he didn't want her to enter the back mountain. He didn't know if it had something to do with the monks who were made into puppets. Xiao Qing told his guess to Xiao Lan, who thought for a moment and nodded: "It keeps saying that its stronghold is outside the territory. I'm afraid it's lying. Those puppet monks and its retreat should be in the back mountain. "

"What's more, it has enemies who are always looking for it."

Xiao Lan fell into deep thought, and Xiao Qing also fell into deep thought.

She now has two advantages. One is that she is only five years old in the eyes of that thing, and she is of an age that will not be taken into consideration by it at all. The other is that she has an anode constitution, and she is very useful to that thing while alive.

Xiao Lan raised his head and looked at the sky outside. There was already a faint white fish belly in the distance. The two of them had already exchanged things they knew or guessed about each other. The runes on Xiao Lan's body gradually dimmed, and the aura on his body gradually dimmed. It also returned to the familiar feeling of Xiao Qing. This was the restriction it gave Xiao Lan. Xiao Lan could only master this part of the power at night. During the day, he was just an ordinary person.

But, how much does it know about the extremely yin body?

Looking at the glimmer of light condensed in his palm, Xiao Lan's eyes were dark and obscure.

Watching Xiao Qing's back disappear at the door, Xiao Lan suddenly remembered that a few days after Xiao Qing was born, a blind wandering Taoist priest limped to their door and called the door. His father originally wanted to beat him out with a stick, but his mother said He was also a poor man, so he asked his father to give him a few coins and send him away.

Dad took the coins and wanted to give them to him, but the old Taoist priest waved his hands and said no. He came to save their family and Zhangjia Village.

Xiao Lan recalled what happened at that time, and his father found it funny, so he asked him how he planned to save them. The blind old man pointed at him, then pointed at his mother's bedroom, and said crazily: "Throw two and one will die!"

The angry father cursed and beat the old Taoist priest with the pole he usually used, and then sent him to the government, where he was imprisoned for several days before he could calm down.

After walking out of Xiao Lan's room, Xiao Qing ran back to her room like a gust of wind, threw off her shoes and threw herself on the bed. When the surroundings quieted down, she realized how loud and fast her heart was beating, and the clothes behind her were almost covered by He was soaked in cold sweat, and his eyes were feeling dizzy. She originally thought that her life would be off to a good start, but she had not even completed half of her life when she encountered this kind of thing. She could only secretly lament that things in the world are unpredictable.

Although she didn't sleep all night, Xiao Qing was very energetic. She appeared at the dining table with dark circles under her eyes, which shocked Xiu Niang.

"Oh, why are your eyes so dark?"

Xiao Qing shook his head: "I accidentally fell off the bed and hit the ground face first."

Xiu Niang did not doubt that she had it, she blew into Xiao Qing's big black eyes with distress, then gave her a bowl of sweet potato porridge and asked her to eat it, then went back to the house and went to bed.

Xiao Qing looked at the porridge in front of her. She didn't know if it was an illusion. The sweet smell between her nose became stronger and stronger. Her tears fell straight into the porridge bowl. However, the sadness did not last long. Just as the tears fell into the bowl, In an instant, the porridge bowl exploded.

The explosion shocked Xiao Lan next to him.

The body of the anode is extremely pure and yang.

Not a drop of porridge was spilled, because when the porridge bowl exploded, the porridge in the bowl turned into ashes and floated in the air after making a burning sound.

Xiao Qing stared at Xiao Lan in confusion: "What is this, what's going on!"

"If my mother's blood was put into the porridge, how come it didn't explode when I drank it these past few days?"

When Xiao Qing was thinking, he remembered that his stomach was always turbulent these days, and he seemed to know the truth of the matter.

Xiao Lan sighed: "You can exchange food with me these days... But without the blood of your parents, you are very likely to see the real situation here clearly."

Xiao Qing looked at the things around him and touched the table in front of him with nostalgia: "You can't let me live in a lie all my life. I have to face reality."

By noon, Xiao Qing, who had always had a sharp ear and eyesight, felt that her vision was blurry, and the world was spinning. She stretched out her hand to hold on to the wooden cabinet next to her.

When he opened his eyes again, what he saw was the same as before. Xiao Qing touched around and found nothing except dust on his hand.

"What are you looking at, Bao'er? Come and eat."

Xiu Niang's gentle voice came from behind, Xiao Qing turned around with a smile, and was startled by the sight in front of him.

In her memory, Xiu Niang had always been as gentle and beautiful as her name, but the Xiu Niang in front of her was a corpse with rotting bones and a withered body. The slightly intact face was branded with runes similar to those of Xiao Lan. Although her face was ugly, It was scary, but the sunlight shone in through the open door, and when Xiu Niang's body made a slight burning sound, she smiled gently at Xiao Qing: "What's wrong, why did our Bao'er become a little idiot?"

Xiao Qing's chest was filled with various emotions. Her lips trembled and her eyes were sour. She wanted to throw herself into Xiu Niang's arms and cry, but what happened to the porridge bowl in the morning made her dare not act rashly. She could only turn around. He walked away, rubbed his sore eyes with his hands, and said hoarsely: "Something got into my eyes... Mom, don't look at me, my face is wrinkled, it doesn't look good."

"Who said it? Our baby is so beautiful. Come on, let me see it."

Xiu Niang's footsteps were getting closer and closer. Xiao Qing tried his best to collect his emotions. He turned around and threw himself into Xiu Niang's arms. Xiu Niang had a faint fishy sweetness that Xiao Qing was familiar with. Xiao Qing closed his eyes and refused to let go. Tears flowed from his eyes.

In the afternoon, Xiao Qing walked slowly in the village. The liveliness of the previous moment was like a mirror, and after that scene, it returned to calm.

The true face of the village gradually appeared in her eyes, and Xiao Qing suddenly discovered that except for the area near her home, everything along the way was in ruins. Even the creek where she fished before exuded a heavy stench and fish corpses were floating there. .

The same thing happened in Zhangjiacun. Only the houses still had some shape. Xiao Qing counted the houses one by one. There were corpses of family members hanging at the door of each house. They had different shapes and expressions.

Erya, who had always had the best relationship with her, squatted outside the threshold, holding her head. Xiao Qing couldn't see her expression clearly, couldn't touch her, and couldn't protect her behind him like before, not letting any bad guys touch her. She pointed a finger.

She walked in this alley that was like a forest of corpses until she stopped in front of a small courtyard.

Sitting at the entrance of the courtyard was the body of a skinny old man.

The old man was hunched into a ball and looked only a little older than her. Xiao Qing looked at her and suddenly said: "Mother-in-law, there are bad guys pretending to be you and bullying me..."

"How good it is, mother-in-law."

Tears rolled down her cheeks, almost more tears she had shed today than she had shed all year.

But the old man was dead, and even his soul was gone. She couldn't hear Xiao Qing's voice and couldn't respond to her. Xiao Qing raised his hand to wipe away his tears and continued to walk forward.

She wanted to visit the back mountains.
