The howling wind came in through the hole, howling and whimpering eerily.
It was bright at night after it had snowed, and the shadows of the trees and the houses were intertwined, transforming into hands reaching out, groping for something in the darkness.
King Tongze felt cold.
Since becoming a ghost, he has long been no longer affected by cold and heat, and such coldness has almost been forgotten.
But at this moment, he had to turn blue and tremble on the bed made of hay and miscanthus, which once again awakened some memories from when he was still a mortal.
Immortals are also made by mortals.
Wutong was originally five boys who had a chance. They cultivated supernatural powers and obtained spells, and gradually became a phenomenon.
The voice of Immortal Jinting rang in his ears, saying: "If the three kings are able to walk, please leave now."
The howling sound of the cold wind was too loud. Even if there was any movement at night like this, it would not be easy to detect.
King Tongze said: "We can't leave."
He was so weak that he wasn't joking when he said he was going to die.
"I broke my muscles, bones and internal organs. Even if I wasn't injured, I would have froze to death in the night without shelter from the wind."
Jinting Daxian said: "That will be difficult to handle."
King Tongze can hold the lake for a while, but he cannot hold it for seven days.
These people who have been without food have reached their limit. Can they really endure it for seven days? Hard to say.
King Tongze fell asleep in the lake, but in the middle of the night, he was woken up by the immortal Jinting.
Someone was wandering outside the door.
It was a very hungry shadow. Even if he wanted to sleep, he couldn't sleep. He could only linger at the door, look around, and see a red eye through the drafty door.
】
King Tongze felt even colder and suddenly said: "Come in."
The shadow seemed to be frightened and stopped for a while, neither coming in nor leaving.
King Tongze said no more, and the shadow slipped away quietly. After all, it still did not break the terrible boundary.
King Tongze began to worry and asked again: "Do you really have no magic power?"
Immortal Jinting sighed and said: "Now I will be dispersed if I blow the wind, and I don't even have the ability to show up in front of them."
King Tongze stopped talking.
As the day dawned, the situation that should have been more dangerous was suddenly relieved.
Many people froze to death in the village. Some people couldn't help but cry too loudly, which attracted neighbors and snatched away their bodies. Soon, smoke rose from the cooking pots.
King Tongze smelled the aroma of meat. Someone opened the door and offered a piece of half-cooked meat to the gods.
The god just looked at him quietly, and he kowtowed hard and ran out of the door.
King Tongze did not eat this piece of meat. He would eat it if necessary, but it was not necessary.
Eating will not prolong his life, and not eating will not starve him to death. As long as he is not killed, he can survive for a while with a breath of energy.
The meat will be eaten quickly. If it is not eaten in one's own stomach, it will soon be taken away by others, perhaps companions.
As the day passed, everyone changed.
When hungry, man is a beast. After eating enough, you will fall into torment again.
Their eyes could no longer look directly at others, and could only fall to the ground slantingly and vacantly, and they stopped talking.
Someone came to King Tongze's room and prayed to the gods for forgiveness.
King Tongze looked down on such weak and incompetent people, but he could only speak softly, indicating that God had forgiven him, and told him: "It's all for living, God will not blame you. You are uneasy in your heart, In the future, you should accumulate virtue and do good deeds to atone for your sins."
The man was soothed and left with peace of mind.
Another day passed, and the little food I ate was no longer enough to sustain my winter activities.
They were hungry again.
The piece of meat offered to the deity was again taken from the deity's bedside and was enjoyed by the worshiper himself.
The gods are powerless to stop it, and the eyes of condemnation cannot defeat hunger.
The smoke from some houses in the village still rose, but the doors were closed and there was no crying.
They went out and searched around, but found nothing. They could only tighten their belts and breathe weakly.
So the danger fell on the gods again.
People can make offerings to the gods and take the offerings away from the table, but the gods cannot stop them.
People can ask for comfort from the gods, and then look at the gods again in order to feel at ease with their lives.
King Tongze could not offer any inducement, so he could only offer coercion.
"If you don't respect the gods, you will be punished by heaven."
Those fearful eyes retracted again. People are in awe of heaven, which is a little bit of sustenance and hope.
But soon all hope was gone, and the youngest child in the family passed away first. I walked at night and found out in the morning that it was already stiff.
They could eat other corpses, but their own child couldn't bear it no matter what, so they could only bear the grief and buried him in the yard. I dare not cry, let alone carry it out.
When night came, the child's parents fell asleep. Others dug out the child again, but accidentally alerted the child's parents, who snatched it back like crazy, locked the house, turned off the lights, and the family quietly left in the night, as if they had left together. .
People who work in vain become even hungrier, so hungry that their eyes turn green.
The immortals who cannot move are actually the real weaklings.
Jackal-like eyes broke into the room and surrounded the immortal. The immortal could not sleep, so he could only act with great compassion and calmness and kindness, and said: "Please eat me."
He stretched out an arm and said, "Start with this arm first."
It was as if a truly divine person had descended into the world, and the merciful Buddha had manifested himself. Such holiness makes people dare not take action.
But bluffing is useless, King Tongze said: "Give me a knife."
With the knife in his right hand, he cut off the flesh and blood of his left arm. The red flesh fell off, but not much blood flowed, showing the difference between gods and mortals.
The mortal received the gift and crawled out holding the holy meat.
This is the fourth night.
On the night of the fifth day, the god gave me a left leg.
On the night of the sixth day, the gods gave him his right leg.
On the night of the seventh day, mortals were waiting outside the immortal's house early, waiting for the immortal's mercy.
King Tongze said fiercely: "Jinting, I want their lives!"
The Great Immortal of Jinting said: "I will obey the law."
When the time came, the soul captured by the Netherworld finally returned through guidance and revived in the array.
But Immortal Jinting couldn't get out, because the formation plate was sealed by King Tongze, and like a locked box, Immortal Jinting's strength was also locked inside.
After King Tongze vented his resentment, he said: "When I release you with my spirit, I will die. You have to kill them all, and then take my body back to Fangshan Mountain."
Immortal Jinting took the order.
King Tongze mobilized his spirit and unsealed the array.
Smoke floated out from the array, and the Great Immortal Jin Ting, with white hair and green clothes, landed beside the bed.
King Tongze reluctantly moved his eyes to look at him, and the light in his eyes disappeared.
Immortal Jin Ting looked at his eyes without turning around, as if he could see some clues from his unblinking eyes.
But since he couldn't see anything, he had no choice but to give up and lift up the mattress, revealing a body dripping with blood and bones. Immortal Jinting followed suit and locked King Tongze's body into the array.
Then there was a roar, the roof exploded, and disappeared into the sky.
Such a big movement made the mortals panic, fearing the gods' revenge, so they fled in the wind and snow overnight.
They ate the flesh of the immortal, and they didn't know where they got their strength. They walked all night and fled into a big city, where they were never found again.
