Chapter 236 Bone Mountain
"If you can't do it, just replace me with someone, especially since the Gu King has not been dealt with recently, the people from Qinglongsik secretly followed Shun'er's security and surveillance work." Chu Xiuru said incredibly angrily.
"Abide by the order, I will go and give the order now." Qiushi nodded and agreed.
Qiu Shi, who has been with Chu Xiuru for many years, knew that the leader was angry.
The young leader's safety problem has not been properly resolved for a long time. It is the dangerous Gu King hanging above his head, the unidentified martial arts and the master who is hidden in the dark.
Everything that has happened recently has made Chu Xiuru, who likes to control everything, feels unprecedented loss of control and panic. The future leader of the Ancient God Cult, her only heir, is gradually breaking away from her control and planning.
Even if the young leader opened two shops outside, it was the first person Yin Piao of Shunfeng Escort Agency to tell her that no one reported the food buckets that followed Gu Shun. How could she not be angry?
As soon as Qiushi walked to the door, Chu Xiuru suddenly called her and said, "Shun'er has grown up after all, so she should have some privacy. If you force everything too much, it is easy to be too late.
Notify Qinglong Department and send two people to guard Shun'er's side, focusing on monitoring whether anyone has secretly contacted him.
At the same time, for the shop called Yuantong opened by Shun'er, I will be in a wait-and-see state for the time being, and send a few more disciples to sneak in to see what Shuner is doing."
"Qiushi understands."
Chu Xiuru thought about it and gave up the idea of closely monitoring Gu Shun. After all, the child’s trump card has not been fully understood. If he knew that he was being closely monitored, he might have some rebellious mentality and would eventually be alienated from the mother-son relationship.
Instead of being suspicious here, it is better to say it directly and make it clear, otherwise the suspicion and estrangement between mother and son will deepen day by day. This is definitely not what Chu Xiuru wants to see.
"Is Shun'er in the room?" Chu Xiuru asked Qiu Shi again.
"After the young leader came back from outside, he went to Zhang Yian's residence. He had dinner there. Now he should have gone back to his room to rest."
"You asked Shun'er to come and said I had something important to ask him."
Qiushi didn't dare to delay and went down to do business immediately.
...
In the room, Gu Shun was cross-legged and focused, with a mysterious aura ventilated on his body. This power was as majestic as the sea, as if coming from the distant ancient times, and like a great power beyond the sky.
Xiaobai beside him was so scared by this force that he pressed on the ground and did not dare to move.
After a long time, Gu Shun suddenly opened his eyes and his clothes were completely wet with sweat.
Gu Shun had just re-operated the first level of the ancient god scriptures again and saw the ancient city under the sea that was blocked by fog. He was also surprised to see the ancient city under the sea again as wild as ruins and strange.
Originally, he thought this ancient city was just a dream, but everything that was revealed in his eyes was so real, as if he had really come to the ancient city.
However, compared with the last time, this time, he no longer looked down from the sky, but came outside the ancient city.
Stepping on green stone slabs covered with moss and humus, the city in the distance is asleep in endless darkness and dead silence.
Gu Shun was like a wanderer holding a torch and stretching out his hand to the darkness. His only source of light was the strange-shaped lamp with green flames jumping.
The shape of the lamp makes Gu Shun feel strange and familiar the more he looks. He seems to have seen it somewhere, but his memory seems to have been erased and he can't remember it no matter how hard he is.
The lamp has a vague outline of a human, but it has an octopus-like head with many tentacles. It seems like an octopus is installed on a human body, which is terrifying and weird.
The body is covered with gel-like objects similar to scales, with huge claws, and a pair of narrow and thin wings behind it, which is obviously not symmetrical to its bloated and obese body.
Its high claws clenched into an arc, and the green flames were burning in the claws.
Gu Shun felt strange that the green flame could burn out of thin air without fuel and lasting for a long time.
Holding the lamp in his hand, Gu Shun moved forward slowly, and the whole world was silent, as if only his footsteps were left between the vast world.
As the faint light shone, something suddenly stepped on his feet.
He lowered his head and shone down with the lamp in his hand, and suddenly found that there were several broken bones on the soles of his feet. The bones had completely turned gray and very soft. When he stepped on it, he turned into powder like powder.
This bone should be a human bone. Two steps forward, there is a skull on the ground. The skull is facing down, and the bones scattered beside it, it is easy to tell that it is a person kneeling on the ground, with his hands forward, as if he is worshiping the ancient city in front of him.
The color of the skeleton's clothes had completely faded, and it turned into ashes with a slight touch, leaving nothing behind.
These corpses were also corroded and full of holes, and they have been here for at least thousands of years.
Gu Shun did not find anything valuable from the corpse, so he continued to walk forward.
After walking a few steps, the next scene made Gu Shun feel unprecedented shock. He saw that in the place with a glimmer of light in his hand, countless corpses were stacked on the ground layer by layer. The movements of the corpses were in various shapes, some kneeling on the ground, some struggled to survive, and some stretched out their hands as if they wanted to rush into the city.
‘Where is this place and why there are so many corpses?’
With these doubts, Gu Shun walked towards the sleeping giant city under the sea, stepping on the crackling corpse.
Every step he took was extremely difficult, and there were more and more bones accumulated under his feet. If he was not careful, he might be cut into the pile of bones and buried alive by the bones.
I don’t know how long it took, but it seemed that time had stopped. Gu Shun kept trekking on piles of bone mountains. The gate was getting closer and closer and more bones were getting more and more.
Apart from mental fatigue, I feel that my physical strength is not consumed at all.
Finally, he came to the gate of this ancient city. The closer the corpse was to the gate, the higher the pile, as if these people were trying every means to squeeze into the city during their lifetime.
Gu Shun raised the lamp in his hand high, and the green flame seemed to be in contact with the city gate. The city gate, which was originally integrated with the darkness, slowly lit up. One meter or two meters, the light was still spreading, and the city gate seemed to have no end toward the darkness.
Looking at the tall city gate as tall as a mountain, the city gate was covered with mottled traces. I wonder who the city gate was for, it was so majestic and was estimated to be about a few hundred meters high.
Just as Gu Shun wanted to touch the city gate, the flames in his hand jumped violently twice and suddenly went out.
The darkness surrounded Gu Shun in an instant, and the mountain of corpse under Gu Shun's feet trembled violently. He only felt that his feet were empty, and a huge suction force came from the soles of his feet uncontrollably. Before he could react, he was swallowed by countless broken bones.
Countless bones smashed down and buried Gu Shun in the Bone Mountain.
This is not the most terrifying thing. The broken bones themselves are not tight. They are like quicksand with a slight touch, causing people to sink deeper and deeper.
Gu Shun is still falling continuously.
His body is now squeezed by countless bones, and he dare not open his mouth to breathe, otherwise his mouth will be filled with bone-breaking slag in an instant.
The strong sense of suffocation and the violent burning of the chest made Gu Shun feel as if he was walking on the line of life and death, painful and desperate, only one step away from death.
But he still held the strange-shaped lamp in his hand tightly. He knew that lamp was in this strange world, the only thing that could save him.
Sure enough, just as Gu Shun felt that his last breath was about to be exhaled, his body, which was constantly falling, suddenly stopped.
The fire in the lamp burned violently, but this time the fire was not a faint green color, but a bright and warm orange color. Under the light of the fire, the Bones Mountain beside him gradually turned into countless bubbles.
In a trance of vision, Gu Shun suddenly felt as if he was in the deep sea. He was gradually approaching his limit and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. The turbid air immediately turned into countless bubbles and floated towards the endless dark sea level.
