"Who are you, and why are you here?" The Miko-sama lifted the lantern, the five-colored light illuminated her beautiful face.
The five-colored lantern, the white dress, the sense of familiarity reminded Ji Feichen of an old friend. So, he explained in a gentle manner: "I am just a traveler who came here to seek refuge. Girl, are you the Miko-sama of this temple? May I know which god is worshiped here? Is it Amaterasu? "
To be able to stop the Taixiao Taoist Priests, it was obvious that she was not an ordinary person. As for the Miko-sama, it was natural for Ji Feichen to associate her with Amaterasu.
"No, I'm not …" Hearing that Ji Feichen was someone who came here to seek refuge, Miko-sama's expression was a little disappointed. She lowered the lantern she was holding and explained, "I'm also someone who came here to seek refuge."
"Refuge?"
"Well, there was a fight outside, my grandfather and I were separated, so I took refuge in this temple."
The structure of this temple was very simple. It was an earthen temple with a square foundation, no more than three feet in length and width, the workmanship was simple and plain. In the temple, a wall was used to separate the front and back halls. The front hall was the place where Ji Feichen came in, the altar and the water jade were both in the front hall. As for the position opposite the altar, there was a white jade bed. The Miko-sama was resting in the back hall, it was not until Ji Feichen came in that she woke up.
"You are also a refugee?" Ji Feichen looked at the Miko-sama clothes on the girl: "Then your clothes …"
"Clothes from inside the temple." The Miko-sama took Ji Feichen to the back hall, in addition to the white jade bed, there was only a table and two stone stools. There was a teapot and a cup on the table, there was also half a pot of fragrant tea.
"I borrowed the clothes from here."
"Wait, how long have you been here?" Ji Feichen suddenly thought of something and returned to the front hall again, carefully distancing himself from the Miko-sama.
Although he couldn't sense Miko-sama's Dao Fruit Realm, he could sense that Miko-sama's body contained a majestic Spiritual Power, and it had a lot to do with the Water Jade. Even if he had once been a refugee, after all these years, he must have had far more control over the temple than he did.
However, no matter how strong her Reiatsu is, Miko-sama is still just a mortal, she doesn't have the ability to live forever.
"I'm not sure. At first, I wanted to calculate the time, but because there was no sun and moon, I couldn't know the year, month, and day. I know what you're suspecting. I'm a mortal woman, and I'm also worried about hunger after coming in. But that piece of water jade has other mysteries. Every once in a while, it will exude sweet dew. I use the sweet dew to make tea to satisfy my hunger. "
This is a very magical place. Here, Miko-sama is unable to perceive the passage of time, but she also doesn't suffer from hunger or aging. The only drawback was loneliness.
It was rare to meet such a person, and Miko-sama seemed to have said all the words she had accumulated in her life.
"You came from outside. What's the situation outside? Where did you come from? "
The questions came one after another. After Ji Feichen dealt with them one by one, he suddenly pointed at the skeleton at the door and asked, "Do you know the origin of this skeleton?"
Miko-sama shook her head.
Ji Feichen joked, "Perhaps, she was a refugee before you and me. Because she couldn't leave, she eventually died here. "
Miko-sama nodded solemnly, "Indeed, it's possible. Because she was already here before I came in. Even the Miko-sama costume I'm wearing was taken from the back hall. Obviously, there were other women who lived here before me. "
This is a female skeleton, and it is indeed possible that she was the original sacrifice of the temple.
After the discussion, the two of them fell silent.
When the water jade glowed again, a fragrant sweet dew exuded from it.
"It's time to eat." Miko-sama suddenly looked at Ji Feichen and frowned hesitantly.
Ji Feichen immediately understood her concerns and walked to the mural on the right side and raised his hands, "Don't worry, I have cultivation, I don't need food."
Miko-sama stared at Ji Feichen for a while and nodded, "I understand. But if there's any left over, you can try the tea here. The teapot in the back hall is very strange, as long as you put the sweet dew in it, it will boil by itself. There is no need for an outsider to light the fire. "
It was as if the teapot itself could be used to make tea.
After that, Miko-sama was busy making tea while Ji Feichen leaned in front of the mural, feeling the strangeness of this temple.
There was no divine power in this temple, and there was no smell of incense or worship. Even if there was a Miko-sama living here, he couldn't feel any human presence at all. Moreover, the blood on the floor tiles and the skeleton at the door added a bit of haze to Ji Feichen's mood.
Could it be that the current strange scene was the scene after the fight that broke out?
"And that Miko-sama …" Ji Feichen suppressed the urge to kill Miko-sama and dissect her body, stood in the corner and watched quietly. Because in his heart, he had a guess about the existence of Miko-sama.
"But this temple is too strange, although I still have the power of a Sky Immortal, I can't feel my own Dao Fruit at all, I can't even detect the faith of the outside world, it's as if I've really isolated myself from the world and entered the sacred realm of another existence."
"I hope this Miko-sama is just the person chosen by that existence to take care of this temple." Just looking at the skeleton at the door, Ji Feichen's expression became a bit gloomy. I hope it's not what I think it is.
Suddenly, Ji Feichen found something near the skeleton and hurried over to check. There seemed to be something pressing down on the palm bone.
"Wood?" It seemed to be a piece of rotten wood, Ji Feichen gently touched it, and the wood directly turned into dust, only a faint fragrance wafted in the air.
"Is this a piece of old fragrant wood?"
"It's done!" In the back hall, Miko-sama came over with a teapot. Seeing Ji Feichen examining the skeleton, she smiled and said: "There are only three of us in this temple, I understand why you want to talk to her. But I have just brewed some tea, why don't you try it? "
Ji Feichen responded, glancing at the skeleton from the corner of his eyes, and vaguely saw the skeleton move. He walked over to Miko-sama, picked up a cup of tea, and silently drank it.
However, worried that Miko-sama would do something bad, Ji Feichen secretly wrapped the spirit tea with his Enigmatic Dharma, carefully breaking it down and refining it.
"How does it taste?" Miko-sama looked at Ji Feichen expectantly.
"Not bad." Ji Feichen casually said a few words, pointed at the bloodstain under his feet, and changed the topic: "I see that you are taking care of this temple, can't you wipe this bloodstain off?"
"I can't wipe it off, this bloodstain and the white bones at the door were there when I came in."
Ji Feichen waved his hand to cast the Traceless Spell, but the bloodstain on the ground was as bright as before, and there was no trace of it disappearing.
The two fell silent again.
After a long time, Ji Feichen asked again: "Can we leave this temple?"
"If I knew the way, I would have gone to find Grandpa."
"That's true."
Even if Ji Feichen didn't try to go out, after seeing this Miko-sama, he guessed that it wouldn't be easy to leave the temple.
So, he threw a ball of Xuanming Divine Lightning outside the temple. But as soon as the lightning left the temple gate, it disappeared.
It didn't leave, but was directly destroyed. If Ji Feichen walked out of the temple directly, it was very likely that he wouldn't return to the trench, but would be destroyed by the halo around the temple.
"After coming in, there is no way to get out." Miko-sama said with a bitter smile: "I have already tried, don't waste your energy. Instead of breaking out from the outside, it is better to come from the inside. This water jade and the murals, I think that is the key to getting out. "
Ji Feichen's eyes fell on the water jade. The water jade contained some kind of power that made him, a Celestial Immortal, feel a faint sense of awe after seeing it, not daring to go forward.
As for the murals, Ji Feichen's eyes once again looked at the battle between the Daoists and Demons on the right.
Suddenly, he almost couldn't hold the teacup.
On the right side of the mural where the Master and Demon Ancestor fought, there was a new image.
"Taixiao Taoist Priests?"
In the corner of the mural, there was an additional Ninth-Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus of Demon Ancestor. At the same time, there was a mark of Taixiao Divine Lightning following the lotus, as if they were fighting!
"The two of them have fought to the ancient times!"
