Chapter 46 Sarcophagus
...
Sumeru Cave Heaven
The man in red robe was still sitting cross-legged in the hall lined with stone pillars, but the colorful disc in front of him had disappeared, replaced by a silver round mirror hanging in the void. The round mirror was more than one person high and half a meter wide. The silver border was engraved with a pattern of strange flowers, which almost covered every inch of the frame.
However, on the silver mirror facing the man in the red robe, what was presented was not his figure, but Yan Yi, who was bowing his head to eat noodles in Yu Wei's mother's bedroom.
"Yaro", the man in red suddenly shouted.
The man in white, sitting not far away from him, slowly woke up from the meditation and turned to respond: "Teacher! Are you calling me?"
The man in red nodded silently and pointed at the silver mirror Yaoyao. The silver mirror slowly turned toward Yaro, "Look at it."
Yaro looked along the fingers of the man in red with confusion. When he saw the image in the mirror, he couldn't help but stand up from the rock plate under him, "Yan Yi? Why is she with that man?"
"My friend Yaro, sit down first. Be careful not to be impatient." An unquestionable voice came from under the red robe. He seemed to have expected Yaro's reaction. As soon as he saw him get up, he waved to Yin Jing to shoot a magic trick. The fluorescent flow room was set, and the Yin Jing became the size of a palm and was held in his hand.
After doing this, the man in red robe turned his head slightly: "My friend Yaro, do you know why I want you to see these?"
Although Yaro sat back on the stone plate, his expression on his face did not relax at all: "Please let the teacher make it clear!"
"You have to know that their first meeting was the result of the reunion of causes and conditions, and this time it was the choice she made. In other words, she decided invisibly to bear the past life between them. Do you really want to interfere with them?"
"But, they will not have any results..."
“So what?”
"Then we shouldn't let them meet!" Yaro's eyes widened, and he was very excited.
"Oh? Why is that little friend still obsessed with something in his heart? He knew there was no result, but why did he not let go so far?"
"I……"
Yaro seemed to have been touched by the man in red robe, and suddenly fell silent.
At this time, the man in red robe slowly stretched out three white fingers from under his wide sleeves: "Three days! You will stay with me for another three days, and you can ask you about your true thoughts in your heart. After three days, no matter how you choose, I will not stop you at all, what do you think."
The man in the red robe had a plain tone and had no scent of fireworks, but it made Yaro, who was beside him feel an unquestionable sense of majesty.
After hearing this, Yaro took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, nodded respectfully to the man in the red robe and said, "Okay, thank you teacher."
The man in the red robe nodded in satisfaction, took his hand back into the red robe and sat still in a quiet position.
After staring at the man in red robe for a long time, Yaro slowly turned his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

Southeast of China
In a deep mountain forest dozens of kilometers away from Longhu Mountain, a figure wearing a red tights slowly sneaked.
This place was not affected by storms like other places, but due to the arrival of night, the dense forest was full of boundless darkness except for the scattered moonlight.
Under the moon shadow, it was a woman with short black hair, thin eyebrows, big eyes, delicate facial features that were exactly the same as those of a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. She had a plump figure and was slim. Every few steps she took, she would look around, as if she was looking for something in the dense forest.

A crisp sound suddenly came out.
"Who?" The woman suddenly turned around and looked around, trying to find out the source of the sound, but found nothing.
Seeing this, the woman frowned slightly, and did not stop, and found a direction again and continued to move forward.
If Yu Xi was present, he could recognize this woman at a glance, which was Yu Sijun, the mother he was looking for. Judging from her appearance, she was actually eighty or ninety-nine-point similar to the demon clan that Yu Xi had seen before, but there was a bit more maturity and vicissitudes between her eyebrows.
In the darkness, Yu Sijun was finally tightly hugged by the roots of an extremely thick giant tree in the darkness, and found what she wanted on a green stone the size of a washbasin.
They are two circular symbols the size of ping-pong balls. The two circles are arranged horizontally above the green stone, and their quarters overlap each other. The center of the overlapping position is composed of two short and one long three line segments, pointing horizontally to the right arrow.
Not far below the figure is a circular hole with the same proportion as the circle above.
Yu Sijun bent down and stretched out a finger, gently touching the inner edge of the circular hole, which was extremely smooth inside.
She looked at the stone and was stunned for a while before slowly unzipping the zipper of her shirt and taking out a round bead with a faint green light from her chest. The round bead was the size of a ping-pong ball, with an extremely smooth surface. After she threw the round bead into the hole, she stood up and waited quietly.
After a while, with the sound of a series of mechanisms running, the ground on one side of the big tree suddenly sank for a distance, and the grass above split from the middle to both sides, forming a square hole of about one meter.
Yu Sijun moved to the entrance of the cave and looked at the stone steps leading to the ground along the dim light emitted from the cave. The blood on the stone steps and the strong bloody smell that floated out from time to time made her frown tightly, and her heart was even more vigilant.
However, she seemed to have no intention of leaving. After observing that there was nothing abnormal around her again, she looked alert and took off the torch on the right wall of the tunnel and walked down the stone steps.
When she walked six or seven meters underground, a sound of turning left from the hole on the ground was heard again from the hole on the ground, as if the hole had never appeared.
I don’t know how long I walked along the stone steps leading to the ground, but the downward steps gradually became smooth. I came to a corridor made of black huge stones. Every ten meters away on the wall of the corridor, a square container made of bronze was hung. Above the container was a dim flame that was constantly stretching and leaping.
Yu Sijun seemed to be quite familiar with the underground environment. After passing through several forks along the corridor, he finally came to a half-open stone door.
At this time, the vigilance on her face became stronger and stronger, because she clearly felt that the bloody smell that had been flowing out of the stone chamber behind the door.
Just watch her use of spiritual energy around her body, and all exposed skins were covered with a layer of red and fine scales. Then she reached out and put a little force on the hidden stone door.
Crack
The stone door opened
The scene in front of me couldn't help but shock Yu Sijun on the spot.
The lights in the stone chamber were brightly lit. Not far in front of her was a black jade stone coffin with strange patterns placed on the stone platform in the middle of the stone chamber. The coffin lid was flipped on the ground on the left side of the stone platform, and there was nothing in the coffin.
On the ground around the sarcophagus, there are many corpses wearing white-clothed and bronze masks, with as many as eleven.
...
"The twelve Xiaowei of Wusheng Sect actually died eleven in one breath? Who did it?"
Yu Sijun murmured to himself as he looked at the bronze mask in his hand that looked like a cow's head.
At this time, she had moved all the bodies of men in white to the side of the sarcophagus and placed them neatly on the ground.
Before this, Yu Sijun had carefully examined the corpses. She was surprised to find that more than a dozen people lying on the ground seemed to be pierced through the vital points by something with brute force. The death was quite miserable. Some of them were even crushed to death by the heavy coffin lid, and their entire head was crushed to pieces. The bronze mask on her face had been completely "intacted" into the bones, and their eyes were squeezed out of their eye sockets.
Yu Sijun silently looked at the bronze mask on the corpse's face, "Rat, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, chicken, dog, pig, ox?" These masks obviously represent different zodiac signs among the twelve zodiac signs, and the middle position of the foreheads of these masks is engraved with the corresponding earthly branches, but there is only one zodiac sign that is not included.
"Shen Hou? Sect Master?" Yu Sijun glanced at the corpse on the ground, then looked at the empty coffin, and slowly fell into deep thought.
