Chapter 27 Floating Platform (3) “Second Update”
byChapter 27 Floating Platform (3) "Second Update"
Coming out of the back door of Sun Mansion is a river called Changming.
The Changming River flows continuously, shimmering with cold light under the moonlight.
Yan Qing threw the copper plate upstream, so he resigned himself to following fate to find it.At the uppermost reaches of the river is a waterfall, and there is a road up the mountain next to the waterfall.The steps were stained with blood and were bright red. It seemed that the bride should have escaped into the mountains from here.

"You can't find anything without breaking through the iron. It takes no effort to get it." Yan Qing put away the copper plate and said with a smile: "See, my intuition is always very accurate."
Xie Shiyi asked casually: "What are you going to do after you find it?"
Yan Qing was overjoyed: "How could these words come out of your mouth? Demons do many evil things, and they should be killed when they see them, right, alliance leader?"
Xie Shiyi smiled emotionlessly.
They could see the bloodstains, and naturally the disciples who came to investigate could also see it.
Everyone followed the blood trail and finally stopped at a temple.The three characters "Jiangjin Temple" are written neatly on the top of the plaque.
This name is familiar to Yan Qing, it is exactly where Mrs. Sun said the seventh girl of the Zhang family was killed - why is Zhang Mushi running here?
When he and Xie Shiyi walked in, a group of Wangqing Sect disciples led by Mingze had formed a circle, looking warily at the bride kneeling in front of the Buddha in her wedding dress.
After Zhang Mushi committed a massacre, he did not flee into the valley, nor did he deliberately hide himself.
She left various traces and stumbled to the Buddhist temple.
Jiangjin Temple sealed off the temple because of the incident where Miss Zhang Qi was bitten to death by a jackal. Now it is deserted.
The cold wind blew the yellow paper on the ground.
The red candle gives the Golden Buddha a layer of scarlet blood.The statue of the god sits high on the Buddhist niche, with a lotus in its palm, showing compassion for all living beings.
After Zhang Mushi ate her husband alive, there was still bright red flesh and blood in her fingernails. Her fingers were slender and some of her nails had been turned over and cracked.She knelt in front of the Buddha statue, her wedding dress like blood.All the phoenix crown and silver ornaments fell off while running.From behind, everyone could only see her frail waist and long black hair that snaked to the ground.
It is hard to imagine that such a thin woman could cause such a bloody and tragic scene in the wedding night.
Mingze was a little suspicious and frowned: "Zhang Mushi?"
Zhang Muchi turned her back to them, bent over, and gently caressed something with her fingers. She said in a hoarse voice, "Are you the immortals who come here specifically to slay demons?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard her voice.The demons in my impression are all crazy, ferocious and irrational after awakening.She is just a mortal, why is she still so conscious now.
Zhang Muchi's voice was strange, dry and broken, like an old bellows.She said: "You don't have to rush to kill me. If I kill Sun Hebi, the Sun family will not let me go, and I don't want to live for a long time. I took the medicine and my intestines will rot and die tomorrow."
When Zhang Muchi said this, she smiled faintly and stood up from the futon.
At this time, everyone finally saw clearly what she was playing with just now.
A corpse.
The corpse of a girl who was rumored to have been bitten by jackals long ago.
The skull and limbs were all clean, and the stains on it were cleaned bit by bit by Zhang Muchi, giving the girl her last bit of dignity.
Mingze said nothing.
Zhang Muchi turned around and looked into the eyes of the people in Qingle City.Zhang Mushi, the fifth daughter of the Zhang family, is well-known for her ability and political integrity. She is knowledgeable and proficient in calligraphy and painting.But now she has disheveled hair, looks like dry grass, with sunken cheeks and protruding cheekbones, looking as formidable as a female ghost walking out of a tomb.
Mingze subconsciously looked at Zhang Mushi's eyes. One of the most obvious features when the nightmare woke up was the eyes, but there was no trace of green in Zhang Mushi's red eyes.
Mingze said in a deep voice: "Zhang Muchi, are you a demon?"
Zhang Muchi smiled sadly, tears flashing in her eyes: "Immortal, I am not a demon. But if I didn't do this, how could you come. There is someone else who is the real demon in Qingle City. I'm waiting here.It’s been three days and you’re finally here.”
Mingze was stunned for a moment and frowned: "You said this demon species in Qingle City is someone else?"
Zhang Muchi smiled desperately and sarcastically: "Yes, I will take you there right away."
Everyone was stunned. They had just come down the mountain. They never expected to encounter such a thing on their first mission.
Various wounds on Zhang Mushi's feet were covered in pus and scabs, but she walked numbly down the mountain as if she couldn't feel the pain at all.
During the Qingle City Floating Lantern Festival, thousands of red lanterns were hung high. She was so thin and solitary that she walked on the street like a wandering spirit.
The place he took them to was actually the Sun Mansion——
After walking back and forth along the river like this, the sky has turned white.
There are still colorful paper fireworks on the ground in the narrow alleys of Qing Street that will not be cleaned up in the future. They are the joyful legacy of the loud gongs and drums on the day of her wedding.In the blink of an eye, happy events turned into nothing.
Zhang Muchi was originally very calm, but the moment he saw the gate of Sun Mansion, he suddenly became excited. He accelerated his pace and walked faster and faster, stepping on the bluestone road through the soot everywhere.
Because she walked too fast, she accidentally fell, but she got up with her hands on the ground, raised her arms to grab the door knocker, and knocked desperately, her eyes were bloodshot, and her voice was extremely shrill: "Open the door! Liu Jinyun! Give it to meOpen the door! - Liu Jinyun! Open the door!"
The person who opened the door was the Sun family housekeeper.
The moment the housekeeper saw Zhang Muchi, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground bloodless and screamed: "Demon species! Demonic species! Ah, ah, demonic species!"
Not many members of the Sun family slept that night. Everyone was startled by the sound early in the morning and walked out of the room.
The head of the Sun family and Mrs. Sun walked together.Mrs. Sun and Sun Junhao walked together.Followed by a bunch of maids and boys.
The moment Mrs. Sun saw Zhang Muchi, her hatred even defeated her fear of the demon species, and her eyes instantly turned red.
He strode over, slapped Zhang Muchi directly on the face, and asked in a trembling voice: "Zhang Muchi! How dare you come back! What do our Sun family owe you?!"
She cursed and cried first: "How can our Sun family be sorry for you, Zhang Muchi, you want to do this to me... you want to do this to me."
The head of the Sun family behind him was so frightened by her actions that he turned pale.
Zhang Muchi covered half of her face that had been slapped red and knelt on the ground. She didn't resist or go crazy, she just smiled faintly.
"Liu Jinyun, you actually have the nerve to ask me such a question?"

When Mrs. Sun saw her smile, she was shocked to realize what she had just done.He staggered back two steps, but looking at Zhang Mushi's face, he couldn't help but burst into tears: "Zhang Mushi, I have always treated you as my own daughter. After the incident with the seventh girl of the Zhang family, the whole city was talking about you., guessing you, but I didn’t. I trust you, I love you, because you are my future daughter-in-law, so I have never doubted you - but what about you? This is how you treat me. Zhang Mushi - "She burst into tears: "It's so miserable for you to hide this from me!"
"You turned out to be a demon! You turned out to be a demon! You hid it from me so badly."
Old Mrs. Sun stood under a locust tree on crutches, with anger filling every wrinkle, and said to the Wangqing Sect disciples: "What are you doing! Why are you still letting her live? You immortal sects don't kill demons whenever they see them.Yeah! Why are you letting her run wild here?!"
Zhang Muchi put her fingers on the ground. She suddenly raised her head after hearing this, her teeth trembling: "Old Mrs. Sun, isn't the real devil Sun Hebi and your precious young grandson!" She looked at Mrs. Sun again: "Liu Jinyun, youYou have the nerve to say that I hid it from you so badly? Who among us lied to whom - who knew that his son was a demon but concealed the news! Who among us was hiding from whom!"
Mrs. Sun was frightened by her ferocious expression, and she was trembling and did not dare to speak any more.
Old Mrs. Sun was so angry that her whole body was trembling: "Zhang Muchi, you still dare to talk nonsense here! Come here! Come here! Get her!"
The servants of the Sun Mansion were fighting in two groups and did not dare to move.After the news of the demon seed spread in Qingle City, everyone was afraid to go out because of fear.They dared to come out and take a look because of the Wangqing Sect's people, but they never dared to step forward and touch Zhang Muchi.
Zhang Muchi stood up from the ground. She was about to die, but there was only crazy hatred in her eyes. Her face seemed to be crying and smiling, twisted and crazy.
"Do you know why I want to eat your son, Liu Jinyun?"
Mrs. Sun kept backing away, clutching her chest, almost out of breath.
But Zhang Muchi just said: "Because I'm hungry. Liu Jinyun."
Zhang Muchi repeated: "Because I'm hungry."
When Mrs. Sun heard this, she was completely speechless. She looked at her blankly as if she had seen a ghost, but her eyes were not just pure fear.
Zhang Muchi's tears fell heavily: "Are you familiar, Liu Jinyun? I believe that Sun Hebi and your youngest son have said this to you many times over the years."
"I'm hungry. Because I'm hungry."
"He said the same thing to me that day."
"After I witnessed them eating my seven-year-old sister alive, Sun Hebi knelt on the ground and cried and apologized to me. He said he didn't mean it. He said he was just manipulated by the nightmare."
"He said he was a victim too, he said he was just hungry."
"Sun Hebi said that after the ancestor of the Sun family detected the nightmare in his body, he gave him a bead to swallow. The bead could control the nightmare in his body. He lived for more than 20 years without any incident. Jiangjin Temple'sThat day, it was just that the bead failed. When he goes back, he will ask his ancestors for another bead. He wants me to pity him and forgive him."
When Zhang Muchi mentioned that day, she was still in a daze and despair.
Her teeth chattered and she laughed: "Sun Hebi said that he was controlled by Xiang and was so hungry that he ate my sister."
——"Mushi, I'm hungry. If I don't eat, I will die."
——"The nightmare is in my body, and it wants to come out, ah! It's talking to me. Mushi, I'm hungry! Mushi, help me!"
On a strange and bloody night in Jiangjin Temple, the eight hundred Buddha statues were silent.
Sun Hebi knelt on the ground, clutching her skirt with blood-covered hands and crying bitterly.
Not far away, there was a seven-year-old boy who was the same age as her sister.Sun Guangyao, the youngest young master of the Sun family.Sun Guangyao sat on the girl's body, licking the blood from his fingers. There were still bloody strands of flesh between his teeth. He smiled at her with an expression full of ridicule and provocation.
Sun Hebi begged her, scolded her, and finally threatened her directly.
He said that if she dared to tell him that he was a demon, he would let the Zhang family be wiped out and she would die without a burial place.
He said that his ancestor was the Supreme Elder of Floating Flower Clan, and even if he was a demon, no one in the world would dare to touch him.
He said he loved her and begged her to forgive him.
In fact, it was a good day.
The peach blossoms in the mountain temple were in full bloom. Before she got married, she and her sister went to the mountain to pray for blessings, an IKEA room, and a hundred years of unity.She had only met the person she was marrying, but her parents ordered her to be a matchmaker, and she was willing to use her whole life's tenderness to maintain this marriage.
Her younger sister held her hand and followed her up the mountain. Her voice was clear and melodious, and she recited poems with a smile: "The clouds make tricks, the flying stars spread hatred, the Milky Way is far away and dark..."
Tenderness is like water, good times are like dreams.Every night after that, she seemed to be awakened by this sound.Something cold fell to the corner of his mouth, like Jiang Jinsi's cold blood.When I woke up, I realized that they were my own tears.
Zhang Muchi pulled away from the memories, with blood gushing from her throat, and said sternly: "Where is Sun Guangyao, Old Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun! Where is Sun Guangyao, where is your precious grandson? Why doesn't he come out! Let him come out to see me!"
Old Mrs. Sun was so angry that she couldn't breathe and almost fainted. She hit the ground hard with her cane: "Is your immortal sect just letting a demon species cause chaos?!"
Sun Junhao sighed and was about to take action.
Mingze stopped him with a voice: "Wait a minute."
He looked at Old Mrs. Sun with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant: "Don't worry, old lady, we will not let her harm others. Please answer truthfully, whether what Zhang Muchi said is true."
The old lady immediately retorted: "Of course she is talking nonsense and spitting blood. How can the words of a demon count?"
Mingze said: "Then please let the young master of the Sun family come out to see us."
The old lady was silent for a moment.
Mrs. Sun bit her lip and said: "Dear immortals, before Guangyao, Jinguang Temple fell ill after returning from Jinguang Temple. He is now bedridden and cannot see guests."
At this moment, the old lady suddenly turned cold and said indifferently: "Zhang Muchi has been found, you can leave. Jun Hao, close the door and see the guests off."

Sun Junhao: "..."
Sun Junhao suddenly had a headache.
An ancestor of the Sun family gave birth to a Supreme Elder from the Nine Great Sects, so this old lady has always had her eyes set high above her head and is lawless.
Qingle City is a city of mortals, and disciples of the Nine Great Sects rarely come here.
Her education was low and her knowledge was shallow. All she had met before were casual cultivators with no family or sect. They treated her with respect for the sake of Fuhuamen, which made her always think that cultivators were nothing more than that.
So maybe the old lady doesn't know that the group of monks standing in front of her now are not something they can provoke at all, nor can they give them away as they please.
Sun Junhao sighed helplessly to the old lady: "Mother, why don't you go back and rest first."
After saying that, he said to Mingze: "I'm sorry, my mother just gave birth to a girl with gray hair, so her mood is a little abnormal. I offend you so much, I hope fellow Taoists won't blame me."
Mingze did not accept the apology and only said: "Fellow Daoist Sun, let your young master of the Sun family come out."
