Chapter 361 360. Above the attic

  The witch who was stationed naturally did not notice Lu Zan who had turned into a gray mist.

  Those babbles lingered in Lu Zan’s ears, as if there was nothing, he continued to move forward.

  The shrine is very empty, and there seems to be no other people here.

  Jinghuoyuan is also among them.

  Lu Yi glanced at the other courtyard.

Quietly.

  Although it was late at night, Lu Zie was completely unaware of the presence of human presence.

  He decided to take a look at the Jinghuoyuan first.

  The smoke continued to drift, and Lu Zan got into the Jinghuoyuan.

  When he came to this room, he found that there was nothing here.

  There are no retired gods, none of them.

  "Is it because you haven't moved in yet?"

  Think about it carefully, this son of God has been for thirty-seven years, then she has been for so many years before, maybe she has already passed away.

  And she has just stepped down, maybe check elsewhere.

  Lu Zan entered the room, and he saw that the furniture inside was neat and tidy, but there was no trace of anyone using it.

  The tables and chairs are covered with a thick layer of dust, which obviously cannot be achieved in one or two years.

  After a round, Lu Zan came to the main hall.

  According to the shrine, the main hall is the residence of gods, but if there are gods in this world, it must be the cherry blossom tree, so the main hall should be very empty.

  Lu Yi’s [True Vision] also told him that there was nothing special in the temple.

  Curiosity made Lu Zin get into the main hall.

  He saw that there was nothing in the empty hall, and the mysterious moonlight shone in, making it lonely.

  No, it's not that there is nothing at all.

  On the side of the main hall, there is a shelf.

  There are countless jars on that shelf.

  Lu Yi saw this scene, and quickly realized what it was.

  He leaned closer.

  A name is written on each jar.

  Changming, Daisy, Irino, Yayoi

  The jars show different old and new according to the time.

  There is no doubt that these are the gods of the past.

  The ashes of the sons of God in the past are placed here.

In the deep darkness that even moonlight can’t reach, the remains of the people who once protected the world are laid out neatly. They are not enshrined by the eternal lantern, and no one comes to worship. It is more like some kind of seal that cannot see the sun. It's like a thing.

  Amber may become a part of it someday.

  Lu Yi sighed.

   Coming out of the main hall, Lu Zie glanced at Shenzi Pavilion again.

  He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to see Amber.

  At least see her for the last time.

   turned into smoke and drifted up. When approaching the high attic, Lu Yi first noticed one thing.

  There is a lock on the door of that attic.

  Not just one, but several locks.

  These locks were full of burn marks, but they firmly, definitely, locked the door.

  And this is the only entrance to Shenzi Pavilion.

  Lu Zie only noticed that the Shenzi Pavilion did not have any windows.

  The whole building is like a sealed jar.

  When he noticed this, Lu Zie's heart jumped.

  "Could it be that the process of becoming a son of God is the process of alienation?"

   Lu Zan thought.

  In a quiet place, only pollution can resist pollution.

  Is it possible that the clean fire is another level of pollution?

  Relying on the clean fire to eliminate the filth, and the clean fire itself is pollution. Eventually, the whole Hedao will become the land dominated by the clean fire. If human beings cannot adapt to the clean fire, civilization will disappear?

  And all this requires a carrier.

  This carrier is the Son of God.

  Hejima Taisha, this sakura, is a bondage.

   Restraint in order to allow the process of self-contamination to proceed peacefully.

  "Amber"

  Lu Zan had some bad feelings.

  The door lock was locked by Amber sitting inside.

  After the current **** child purifying fire was passed to Amber, this lock was set to prevent Amber from escaping.

   "Wait a minute, after all. Can the **** son really leave the **** son pavilion?"

   Lu Zin reacted.

  He has been in Hedao Taisha for so many days, and he has never seen the son of God.

  Actually, no one has ever seen the Son of God, except for the elderly maidens who are responsible for the handover of the Son of God.

  After the Shenzi Pavilion is locked, can the Shenzi really leave here, and only board the Shenzi Pavilion when there is filth, and shoot the arrow of clean fire?

  For so many years, if the son of God had never left the pavilion of the son of God, how did she survive as a human being?

  Lu Yi's heartbeat began to accelerate.

  He felt that he had touched the edge of Hedao’s deepest taboo.

   Keep going down, you may encounter something bad.

  Some things he doesn't want to see or understand are right in front of him.

   is just above the Shenzi Pavilion.

  He hesitated for a moment.

  But the last fluke made Lu Yi decide to go on.

  Like smoke, he ascended in the moonlight and came outside the door of the Shenzi Pavilion.

  He smelled a smell.

  A smell that shouldn’t be here.

  Scorched smell.

  That is the choking smell left after the fat of a certain animal is burned.

   hum——

  Lu Yi felt his ears beep.

  The good news is that his previous guess may not be correct.

  The bad news is that reality may be worse than speculation.

  Lu Zan faced this door, he stopped in mid-air, and finally chose to enter.

Turning into light smoke, Lu Zan got into the locked door.

The first floor of   Shenzi Pavilion is very empty. Except for the burnt marks on the walls, there are no traces of human existence.

  The burnt smell became more and more intense, and Lu Zan also felt a little scorching breath.

   "Amber?"

  Lu Jie called out tentatively.

  He boarded the second floor.

  Shenzi Pavilion has three floors, and the area of ​​the second floor is a bit smaller.

  But there are more things.

  Lu Jie saw that, in addition to the burnt black traces exactly as those on the first floor, there were long trailing traces on the floor of the second floor.

Yes.

  That is, after humans have lost the ability to act, they rely on their hands to crawl on the ground.

  The trace was towards the first floor, but failed to reach the stairs.

  On the handrail of the stairs leading to the third floor, there are more traces of fingers grabbing.

  The blood flowed from the end of the finger, and he scratched it on the wood, leaving five fingerprints one after another.

  The scorching breath is getting stronger and stronger.

   "Amber, are you there?"

   Lu Yi asked.

  No response.

  He went down the stairs and climbed up three floors.

  The third floor is no longer empty.

  There are ashes of wood and straw that have not been burnt clean. Here, the scorching smell of the flame has reached its peak.

  Lu Yi quickly found the source of the burnt smell.

  She is standing in the middle of the room.

  The chain restrained her body and fastened it firmly to the central pillar.

  On the pillar, countless fingerprints telling her fear and despair at the time, shocking.

  The scorched, dry, and mottled body was left with only a few fragments of the gorgeous clothes. The golden crown that the burnt hair could not hold had turned black and fell on the feet like dry wood.

That face still kept the expression of horror and despair, but the beautiful amber eyes were never seen again, only deep, dark eye sockets, shriveled, withered cheeks, originating from the most Instinctively fearful expression.

  She still kept the appearance of holding a bow in her hand. The pale flame formed a bow, which was burning quietly in her hand, lighting up here, and bringing a scorching breath.

  This is the priest maiden of the current Wajima Taisha Shrine.

  This is amber.
