Chapter 745: The Heart of the Fetal God (XI)

Turning back, Yueya whispered to Danjin, "On a snowy day like this, I seemed to see someone kneeling on the side of the road."

She didn't say anything that seemed to be bowing down to her.

If you think about it carefully, it's impossible.

When Dan Jin heard this, his first reaction was also -

“Is this the mountain circumambulator?”

Here, there are always believers who come from afar to the foot of the snow-capped mountains, walk around the mountains and kowtow, praying to wash away the sins of this life, to gain the protection of the snow-capped mountains, to be protected from the dark abyss in this life, and to be favored by the fetal god in the next life and to be transformed into a spiritual fetus.

This is the person who circumambulates the mountain.

They can also be called Snow Mountain Pilgrims.

This is also the most devout believer.

But no matter how devout one is, one would not prostrate oneself in such a snowstorm, unless one wants to enter reincarnation before completing the pilgrimage.

So Yueya always felt that something was wrong.

She opened the curtain again and looked back, but the scarlet figure could no longer be seen in the heavy snow.

He shook his head and closed the curtain before Danjin had an attack.

But when I turned around, I saw Dan Jin stretching his neck and seemed to be looking outside.

"I... just wanted to see how that person was doing." Dan Jin said with a red face.

"Who knows? I can't see it anyway." Yueya raised her eyebrows, "But, I didn't expect you to care about others."

Dan Jin pursed his lips and said nothing more.

Seeing Danjin like this, Yueya stopped teasing her, looked outside, and murmured to herself, "You said that if you are so pious, can you really get everything you pray for?"

Dan Jin was silent for a while, "Maybe."

"You're not sure either." Yueya said with a chuckle.

"Well, I'm not sure either, but I have what I want to believe." Dan Jin said stubbornly.

"Then I really envy your persistence."

Yueya seemed to understand Danjin's words in another way.

But Dan Jin didn't intend to explain, and the atmosphere in the car became cold again.

And what Brother Yun said just now about going on patrol was not an excuse.

Although it is already dawn, the sky is still covered with stars. Walking on this deserted mountain post road, I always feel that some shadows hidden in the darkness seem to be quietly wriggling, as if they will stretch out their cold claws and probe towards the post road at any time.

Fortunately, most of these post roads are blessed and protected by the masters stationed in the surrounding areas, so unless you take the initiative to provoke them or step out of the post road, generally nothing will happen.

However, the caravan still had to remain highly vigilant.

In particular, some strange creatures can captivate the mind, and it is not uncommon for one person to fall into their trap, leading to the destruction of the entire caravan.

And not long after, a strange monster attack did occur.

Yueya and Danjin in the carriage only felt a slight bump, followed by a low muttering sound, which seemed to come from some very far away place, and then everything quickly disappeared.

It didn't disappear, it just seemed to be hidden beneath the water.

The car stopped and there was a commotion outside.

A look of fear appeared on Danjin's face, and he subconsciously protected the basket.

This was seen by Yueya, who had just come back to her senses from her shock. Her gaze fell on the backpack again, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

This time, Brother Yun came over on his own initiative, with a strong smell of blood on his body, which could be smelled even through the curtain.

"Yueya, are you okay?" he asked outside the curtain.

Yueya glanced at Danjin, and seeing that she had no reaction, she lifted the curtain and said, "It's okay."

"That's good." Brother Yun said, and asked Dan Jin who was sitting inside, "Little girl, are you okay?"

Dan Jin then took a look and saw that the guard had a very bright smile and dark and shiny skin. No wonder Yueya liked him so much.

She nodded: "Yeah, I'm fine."

"What can happen to us? We are sitting in the carriage." Yueya took over the conversation, "But you, Brother Yun, is anyone injured?"

"Xiao Wu was slightly injured, but it's nothing. I have Granny Ma's medicine. Just apply it."

"Then on you..."

Yueya reached her hand out of the window and touched the collar of Brother Yun's dark hunting suit, leaving a trace of bright red blood on her fingers.

"It's all that thing's blood. Luckily we discovered it early and chopped it off in a few strokes." Brother Yun patted his chest and said confidently, "Anyway, you don't have to be afraid, Little Crescent Moon."

"Where did that thing go?"

Brother Yun shrugged, showing a bit of indifference: "It's in the back, we're cleaning it up! Anyway, don't look at it, it's very ugly, we chopped it into pieces and threw it into the valley."

"What does that look like?" Yueya asked.

"I told you you were afraid of nightmares." Brother Yun said with a hint of joking in his tone.

But Yueya refused to give in and insisted on listening.

Brother Yun was so annoyed that he finally spoke helplessly:
"It was a thing that looked like a mountain monkey, with a wrinkled face and few hairs, and its hands and feet were as thin as firewood, but it was wearing a red skirt and standing on the side of the road..."

As Brother Yun was talking, he suddenly saw Yueya's eyes gradually widen, with fear trembling in her pupils, staring at the back of him. A chill spread, and Brother Yun's back suddenly felt cold.

It was as if something was standing behind him.

Or maybe it was a pair of cold eyes staring at him.

He looked back little by little -

There was only a vast white valley and nothing else along the post road.

However, another guard saw that he was frightened and asked what was wrong.

Brother Yun frowned, but heard Yueya suddenly burst into laughter.

"Haha, Brother Yun, you are scared by me!"

"You! How can you mess around with something like this!"

Brother Yun turned and left angrily. Yueya looked at his back, pouted and snorted.

"How stingy."

She drew back the curtain and saw Danjin's inquiring eyes. She said unhappily, "Why, do you think my behavior is so abominable? Mind your own business!"

Danjin shook his head: "I just want to know when to continue the journey."

"How should I know? Why don't you ask when Brother Yun is concerned about you?" Yueya said unhappily.

Dan Jin still shook his head and then closed his eyes.

Yueya felt a strong sense of being ignored, and a nameless anger rose in her heart.

The fire burned her heart, and an inexplicable desire tickled the tip of her heart little by little, making her feel itchy and numb.

Yueya's gaze involuntarily fell on Danjin's white neck. She looked back and forth and couldn't help swallowing her saliva.

But no...

She still had some sense left.

Then his eyes fell on the quiet basket.

After a long pause, she slowly raised her hand, with dried blood on her fingers.

He stared calmly, then stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked the blood off his fingers bit by bit.

……

The convoy continued to move forward.

Dan Jin kept his eyes closed and seemed to be uninterested in anything around him.

Yueya looked at her calm appearance and couldn't help asking, "Are you cultivating your mind?"

Dan Jin opened his eyes and looked at Yueya, his gaze a little dazed, as if he was suddenly pulled back from deep silence.

"Don't be so delusional," Dan Jin said slowly, "No matter how you cultivate your mind, we women can't practice after all. It's better to live a free life without too many obsessions."

Dan Jin raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What you just did is living freely?"

Yueya knew that Danjin was asking about the prank played on Brother Yun.

"Of course I am comfortable." She showed a relaxed smile, her eyes like crescent moons, "They can fly high and high, and they can kill ghosts. We can only be protected in the car. It's been a long time, and it's boring. Why can't you let me play?"

Dan Jin's heart moved slightly, as if he inexplicably understood Yueya's strange thoughts.

She watched those masters being so high and mighty every day, and inevitably some dark and twisted things emerged in her heart, and then spread little by little...

But she always tried her best to suppress it, fearing that once she let it go, she might do something unforgivable out of jealousy and hatred, and ultimately her reincarnation journey would be completely interrupted.

The snow-capped mountains are so high that many people cannot cross them, so for mortals, they can only cultivate their minds, accumulate blessings, and pray for the afterlife.

So Danjin thought for a long time and could only say briefly: "This way, you won't accumulate merit."

Crescent Moon sneered.

"Haha, how naive."

I don’t know whether this naivety is about the so-called accumulation of blessings or about the possibilities after accumulating blessings.

But Danjin said nothing more.

To go on would only touch upon deeper taboos.

Dan Jin had seen people like Yueya before, and they would eventually fall into complete madness, act completely irrationally, and eventually walk towards a darkness from which there was no return.

The root cause is nothing more than the collapse of the faith that is deeply rooted in the heart.

However, wasn't my faith collapsing now?
What will happen to her then?

Forget it, what’s the point of thinking too much?
Staying alive is the most important thing at this moment.

So Dan Jin closed his eyes and devoted himself to cultivation again.

The treasure bestowed by the Lord was slowly traveling through her meridians, giving her some minor adjustments from time to time, as if it was constantly being revised.

The martial arts techniques were being constantly revised and updated, which Dan Jin had never heard of before.

But she chose to trust the adults, so she followed the instructions on the direction of movement, adjusted her breathing and continued to try to draw the air into her body.

She closed her eyes so she couldn't see. Yueya's eyes looked at her, becoming increasingly gloomy, with even a hint of scarlet showing through.
