Chapter 318

The Fear of the 3 Nights

Chapter 318

With the boarding of Jiangnan, Shenzhou also slowly set sail.

Under the operation of the melting furnace hidden on the belly of the ship, the Shenzhou exploded with a roar, turned around and returned triumphantly!

Although there were many accidents along the way, on the way home, there was an additional character full of variables like Fengmu.

But this time Shenzhou's trip to the southern wilderness, everyone successfully completed the task.

Not only signed a covenant with the ancient gods.

Humanitarian interests have not been harmed in any way.

Not to mention, after this trip, the lineage of the ancient gods seems to have plans to form an alliance with humanity.

It can be described as an unexpected harvest.

And after leaving the Shenyin Wasteland, the Shenzhou temporarily moored once, letting go of the listless descendants of the ancient gods.

So far, the trip to the Southern Wilderness has come to a successful conclusion.

In the middle of the night, the cool night is like water, and the stars in the sky are also bright.

On the way home, the atmosphere among the human cultivators on the Shenzhou became more relaxed and lively.

Even the deacon of Tianji Pavilion lit a bonfire at the bow, brought wine, and invited everyone to celebrate together.

However, although Wang Chunyun tried his best to invite, Jiang Nan did not follow.

——Because the phoenix mother has been following him since boarding the boat.

If he also went, the woman would probably follow, and by that time, everyone might not be able to let go.

On the contrary, the little tree god who had just woken up, smelled the fragrance sleepily, and wandered out.

"My lord..." Fengmu lay on a rocking chair, and suddenly said, "What is that 'thing' that flew out just now?"

Jiang Nan was taken aback, "You mean Qingluo? Don't worry about it, as long as you treat her as my king's pet."

When Fengmu heard this, her face turned blue.

Because when Qingluo flew out of Jiangnan's arms just now, she was shocked to find that this dragonfly-sized creature also had no breath on it...

Exactly the same as that weird little maid.

What the hell.

Even, Mother Feng couldn't help wondering whether it was a mistake to follow Jiangnan into the human world this time.
Of course, she didn't know that in the new world, there are nearly ten thousand such existences.

Otherwise, it may be drawn on the spot.

But just as Fengmu was about to say something more, the door was knocked open.

The person who came was a young deacon of Tianji Pavilion. Jiang Nan didn't remember his name, but he had an impression of him.

The young deacon glanced nervously at Mother Feng, and then respectfully said to Jiangnan: "My lord, the elder invites you to go and have a talk."

Swallowing his saliva, he secretly glanced at Fengmu again, and added: "You are alone."

Fengmu waved her hand, indicating that it was all right, and Jiang Nan followed the deacon out.

In Sansu's room, the three elders sat around the table without resting.

While many cultivators of humanity were celebrating, the three of them, as the leaders of the Shenzhou, did not look very relaxed.

Seeing Jiangnan coming in, Elder Tianshu personally poured him a cup of steaming fragrant tea, and said straight to the point: "Master Jiang, I'm bothering you, but the three old people really don't understand one thing - what did you say to Fengmu today?" , why did the lineage of the ancient gods suddenly decide to form an alliance with humanity?"

After a pause, the old man narrowed his eyes and pointed, "Or, my lord, do you think this matter is credible?"

Although the three elders didn't show it when Fengmu boarded the Shenzhou.

But the three of them are old fritters who travel through the intrigues and tricks of the major forces.

Naturally, it is impossible to be naive enough to completely trust Fengmu without a trace of doubt.

Because in fact, there is no irreconcilable conflict between the lineage of the ancient gods and the shepherd.

Even 1 years ago, when Shepherd Tuqiangjian was about to enslave the entire Shangyuan human beings.

He also never had any thoughts about the lineage of the ancient gods.

The reason is simple - he can't.

From the day the ancient gods were born, they have been able to freely travel between the underworld and the real world.

This is a very difficult ability for any ethnic group other than the ancient gods.

In the eyes of the shepherd, these few ancient gods are as slippery as loaches, and they are difficult to deal with.

What's more, these "loach" will still eat people if they are not careful.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the lineage of the ancient gods has no reason to help humanity fight against the shepherd.

Jiang Nan glanced at them, took a sip of tea, and then slowly explained about Tianxiang and others colluding with the shepherd.

In the end, he added: "When Mother-in-law Feng told me these things, she swore an oath of greatness, so I don't think it should be a lie."

After hearing this, the faces of the three elders sank like water.

They hadn't thought that the shepherd was involved in this matter.

But at the same time, the doubts in my heart were also dispelled.

After all, if the shepherds first provoke the lineage of the ancient gods, then they intend to fight back, so it makes sense.

"I will report this matter to the Venerable Master truthfully. Thank you, my lord, for clarifying the confusion." Elder Tianshu took a deep breath and said.

Jiang Nan waved his hand, and after some politeness, he left.

However, after he left, the brows of the three elders did not relax.

From Jiangnan's mouth, they knew the motive of the ancient god's lineage to form an alliance with humanity.

But I also know that all the conspiracies are secretly planned by the shepherd.

If this is the case, then the problem arises again.

——It is true that the shepherd is extremely hateful, but no one despises him.

This enigmatic extraterrestrial creature is far superior to ordinary humans in terms of strength and resourcefulness.

It is precisely because of this that, ten thousand years ago, he was able to deceive the entire humanity, and almost completely enslaved the world's creatures!

But if the plan of the three ancient gods really came from the hands of the shepherd, it would be too... a bit of a joke.

"Since the prince claims that what Fengmu said is based on the oath of Dao, then what Fengmu said should not be a lie."

Elder Tianshu tapped his fingers on the table, frowned, and said slowly, "If that's the case, is the shepherd a bit too stupid this time?"

Elder Kai Yang was also puzzled and said, "Yes, compared to the past, his plan this time is as simple as a child's trick, which is unreasonable."

For a moment, the room fell into silence.

After a long time, Elder Yu Heng, who had no sense of presence at the side, suddenly moved.

He took out a piece of parchment, wrote and drew, and the other two elders took a closer look,
"We seem to have fallen into a misunderstanding—thinking that what we see is the whole plan of the shepherd."

"But what if that's not the case?"

The two elders were taken aback.

Then see Yuheng continued to write,

"Judging from the current situation, the shepherd's plan should be to provoke our relationship with the lineage of the ancient gods. It would be best to trigger a war, so that he can reap the benefits."

"In this plan, all he did was let the three ancient gods foolishly provoke our bottom line of humanity."

"But what if he did other things, but we all forgot?"

After writing these three lines, the two elders were confused.

"Yuheng, what exactly do you want to say?" Elder Tianshu frowned even deeper, his old face was like the bark of a dead tree.

Elder Yuheng continued to write,
"According to our initial assumption, the descendants of the ancient gods are likely to provoke on the Shenzhou, forcing humanity to take action, in order to create an excuse for the ancient gods to attack."

"But in the end, nothing happened."

"If all this is really the pastor's plan, he can't let go of such an opportunity."

"And you all know that since the old man suffered from mouth disease, he has a habit of recording every conversation he has."

"But one day on the way to Shenyin Wilderness, there was a problem with the old records."

"In the records of that day, it should be that something happened. At that time, we had a conversation with Lord Jiang and Wang Chunyun."

"However, the strange thing is that in the record of that time, quite a few blank spaces seemed to have been erased abruptly."

"There is only one sentence left, Lord Jiang said - everything will be forgotten."

Elder Yuheng stared fixedly at Tianshu and Kaiyang, but his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

And when the last words were reflected in the eyes of the two of them, it was as if thunder exploded in their minds.

——This sentence, they have an impression.

But that's about it.

I just have an impression of what Jiangnan said.

As for the circumstances under which he said such words, what happened before he spoke, and how did the few people react afterward...

Everything is blank.

It's like... a chunk of their memory is missing.

However, what makes people's scalp tingle even more is that the three of them didn't think there was any problem with such a situation in their memory at first.

It was as if there was an inexplicable force that changed their perception and made them think that this matter was normal!
Elder Yuheng's hand holding the pen was trembling slightly, and he wrote a line slowly,
"So, if there are really other things happening in the shepherd's plan, it's just... as the prince said - the lineage of the ancient gods forgot, and we, forgot too?"

"Or, is it because the lord made us forget about it together with the ancient gods?"

At that moment, a icy chill, like a ghost, rose from behind the backs of the three of them!

Tampering with memory, distorting the truth, and even the black and white records of Elder Yuheng can be erased one by one without a sound...

So, in the impression of the three elders, that young man who was as dazzling as the sun gradually turned into a terrifying existence like ghosts and gods.

Elder Tianshu trembled and closed his eyes, his thoughts passed to some unknown place.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, "Yuheng, where is your record from that day?"

Elder Yuheng heard this and took out a crumpled scroll from his bosom.

It can be seen that its owner must have looked at and played with it in doubt countless times.

Elder Tianshu took it, and ignited a raging flame in his hand, burning the crumpled paper roll!
Not even the last ashes are left at all!

He stared at the two of them, his tone became more serious than ever before,
"Kaiyang, Yuheng, the Master's order—that day, Lord Jiang didn't say anything. We didn't hear anything either."

"If there is any violation, the court law will deal with it!"

Hearing this, the two trembled and lowered their heads.

Master Shifang's reaction seemed to further illustrate the authenticity of their speculation.

In a trance, they suddenly understood—their habitual speculation and exploration seemed to have come into contact with something that they should not have come into contact with by accident.

In the dark night, the cultivators at the bow of the boat were in full swing, but the three elders only felt cold.

At this moment, they deeply realized that for some things, ignorance is the best.
.
at the same time.

There is another person who has the same doubts as the three elders.

In the vast void, the majestic Jiuchang Demon Temple has been in dilapidation since the last time it was destroyed by the Emperor of Heaven.

And the group of monks headed by Xuyuan Bodhisattva has long lost their ego and become puppets under the shepherd's hands.

Since the pastors have not issued orders, they will not do unnecessary things like repairing the temple.

On the top floor of the tower, the shepherd is now on the terrace, looking at the vast Xu Ming, expressionless.

Just now, he lost contact with the three ancient gods of Tianxiang.

In other words, they should be dead.

Plan, failed.

In the face of failure, the shepherd did not show any surprises.

Or to put it another way - if such a crude plan can be successful, then he will wonder whether humanity has suddenly become stupid.

But his mind was full of doubts—why did he think of such a ridiculous plan in the first place, and was convinced that it could really stir up conflicts between humanity and the lineage of the ancient gods?And obviously he could use the heir of the ancient god to stir up conflicts on the way, force humanity to take action, and cause such a great opportunity to cause entanglements, but he didn't do it at the beginning?

Why was I so stupid back then?
It’s as if you looked at the sad quotes posted on Penguin Space ten years ago, and couldn’t help but fall into deep doubts—is this really something that a sane person can say?

Under the incomparable sense of disobedience, the shepherd always felt that something was wrong, but he was still unable to find out the problem, like a thorn in his back, like a thorn in his throat.

This feeling upset him.

At this time, the figure of Xuyuan Bodhisattva quietly appeared behind him.

Not a word.

The shepherd turned his head and frowned, "Xu Yuan, what do you think of my previous plan to provoke ancient gods and humanity?"

Although Xuyuan Bodhisattva has lost his mind, his cognition and memory are still there. Faced with the master's question, he blurted out without hesitation,

"Foolish, like a three-year-old's trick."

Shepherd: "..."

If he didn't know that Bodhisattva Xuyuan had lost his sanity and just answered questions mechanically, he would have wondered if the old monk was mocking on purpose.

However, Xuyuan Bodhisattva's words also woke up the shepherd - even the old monk could see the outrageous plan at a glance.At the beginning, I was full of confidence in it, and there must be something wrong.

Something was wrong...something he wasn't aware of.

Taking a deep breath, the shepherd lowered his eyes, put them aside, and asked,

"Xuyuan, this trip can be rewarding."

"Yes." Bodhisattva Xuyuan said expressionlessly, "I was in the city of Juque in the Southern Desolation, and I overheard an attendant of the city lord's mansion talking and inadvertently said that King Zhenxi might go to a swamp thousands of miles south of Juque. "

The shepherd was taken aback, "Swamp? What does that little guy want to do?"

But then, he shook his head.

What Jiangnan wants to do is not important, what is important is that if the news is true, he will go to a deserted place.

And the humane Shenzhou is eager to return to his life, so it is impossible for him to be with him.Those first-class human beings are also healing their wounds, so they have no time to clone themselves.

That is to say——Jiangnan, the order is placed.

"Seriously, you are looking for your own death."

The shepherd narrowed his eyes and his voice was extremely cold.

Jiang Nan hated him extremely, so why didn't he also hate Jiang Nan extremely?
"Nanhuang is where you will be buried."
