The system runs away at the beginning, I regard the way of heaven as my father

Next to the clear water channel, there are some three or four-year-old children sitting on the shore at the moment, with their bare feet dangling in the water.

However, lightning chains also appeared on their limbs, necks, and foreheads, making a sizzling sound, which looked a bit scary.

From time to time, a very painful look appeared on the faces of these little guys, as if they could not bear the torture.

Or maybe they are not used to this pain like their parents.

Li Chuyi and Li Chuyi slowly approached, not far away from the children, and also sat on the shore like this.

"What are you going to do?" Tu Mu suddenly asked in a low voice.

"I want to know why they were abandoned."

Li Chuyi lowered his head and said, his reflection in the water was clearly visible, but as his palm gently moved across the water, it instantly became blurry.

"I advise you to leave as soon as possible. As practitioners, it is better not to interfere with the other party's cause and effect unless we have to, just like this day."

When Li Chu heard this, he couldn't help but look strange, "Hey, Tu Mu, does this sound like what you said?"

At this time, five or six little cubs, about three years old, holding short sticks, ran towards the two of them.

"Brothers, you are from outside."

A little girl with braids said happily, but as the lightning flashed on her body, she grimaced in pain.

"Can you see us two?" Li Chuyi couldn't help but be shocked. Then his hiding method was of no use.

"I can't see, I have no eyes." The little girl slowly shook her head.

"But we can feel the aura of strangers. My mother, uncle and others can feel it anyway."

"Actually, we found you two by the pool where the eyes were dug out."

When the little girl mentioned her eyes, she felt an indescribable melancholy at such a young age.

Li Chuyi and Li Chuyi were a little speechless. They thought no one noticed them at all, so they never expected to be exposed from the beginning.

"Then why no one pays attention to us?" Li Chuyi couldn't help but ask.

"Aren't we human beings?" The little girl and the friends behind her all had their hands on their hips, as if they were sulking.

"Well, that's not what I meant, I meant the adults in your family." Li Chuyi explained quickly.

The little girl said like a little adult: "Those grandfathers and uncles said that those who can come to us are not ordinary people."

"In addition, we are poor here and have nothing to gain. If they walk around for a while or two and find nothing, they will just leave."

"So, don't pay any attention to it."

On the side, Tu Mu said thoughtfully: "So, my perfect human senior was also treated so coldly after entering here."

And Li Chuyi had already taken out a lot of food, which was spread all over the floor. Most of them were bought when he went to the mortal world to sweep the city.

"Please, don't be polite to me."

The little kids smelled the aroma, but they were very measured. Each of them took a small portion and ate it happily, saying thank you all the time.

"By the way, what's going on with these lightning chains on you?" Li Chuyi was a little curious.

"This, I really know."

The little girl was holding a pastry in her hand, looking serious.

"I heard those grandpas say before that originally we didn't have these lightning chains on us. They suddenly appeared a thousand years ago."

"In the past, all we had to do was dig out our eyes and throw them into the pool. Of course, we could only practice to the foundation-building level, and then we could only wait for death."

"And a thousand years ago, those grandfathers tried their best to send two babies away without gouging out their eyes."

"Since then, we have been like this. As for these thunder chains, they seem to be our punishment."

The little girl's tone was very calm, and she took a small pastry in one mouthful.

Li Chuyi was speechless. As for the two babies, it was no surprise that they were Ji Feng and the young man who made the bone boat.

They fell into the Tongtian River and were probably protected by some treasure, and then they successfully drifted to the Eastern Cultivation Realm.

"By the way, fellow Taoist, why do you want to dig out your eyes?"

Li Chuyi asked again, and gave the other party a decent monk's salute.

Unexpectedly, when the little kids heard this, they would tremble all over.

"We have to dig out our eyes, otherwise something will come to eat us. Real brother, I didn't lie to you." The little girl answered seriously.

As for Li Chuyi, Tu Mu looked at each other with some confusion.

"Ahem, Tu Mu, have you, the perfect human race, changed your taste? After all, you are the only ones who eat people." Li Chuyi looked up and down, very suspicious.

"There's so much nonsense." Tu Mu spat out four short words.

Li Chuyi didn't take it seriously and just looked at the little man in front of him: "Little fellow Taoist, how do you know that something will eat you?"

But the little girl hurriedly said: "Brother, I really didn't lie to you. We have inherited memories, and there is really something to eat us."

Li Chuyi and Tu Mu looked at each other, but their eyes became serious.

"Try?"

"Young fellow Taoist, I'm taking the liberty."

The next moment, the two of them stretched out their fingers at the same time and gently touched the little girl's forehead.

"Little fellow Taoist, if you try to recall that scene, we can see it if we can. It won't cause damage to you like searching for souls."

Li Chuyi said softly, he wanted to see if there were any other things besides the perfect human race that could eat people.

The little girl nodded hurriedly and murmured tremblingly, "Monster... don't eat me, monster, I have no eyes anymore..."

Seeing this, Li Chuyi and Tu Mu also slowly closed their eyes. There was a strange light shining between his fingers, and he was performing some kind of secret technique.

Soon, a picture appeared in their minds.

In the dark night, a scarlet moon hung in the sky, revealing an extremely ominous atmosphere.

Under the moon, it is a place surrounded by mountains and rivers, with wonderful scenery.

Between the mountains and rivers, there are palaces and pavilions here and there, and figures with dark blue eyes are running around among them, looking extremely panicked, as if they are encountering something extremely terrifying.

At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in the picture. It was barefoot and had a knife hanging from its waist. However, only its lower body was exposed, and its full face could not be seen at all, and it was a bit blurry.

And he just stretched out his hand, and a child fell into his hands, and with a click, his neck was broken.

Then, there were bursts of "crunching" sounds, as if the bones and meat were being chewed together.

At the same time, wisps of blood slipped from the fingers of the figure and fell to the ground.

Within a few breaths, there were only a few streaks of blood left on the spot. As for the child, there was no trace at all. He must have been eaten and wiped clean.

But the terrifying figure did not stop. It raised its hand and caught another person in its hand. Then, there was another terrifying sound of devouring flesh and blood.

Li Chuyi felt this terrifying scene. For some reason, he felt that the half-revealed figure was extremely familiar.

On the side, Tu Mu said warmly: "Don't be afraid, little girl. If you recall the upper body of the monster, it will be fine."

In the next moment, the picture in their minds changed again.

This time, the entire body of the terrifying figure was actually exposed, and it was no longer blurry and gradually became clearer.

He is wearing a black Taoist robe, a long straight black knife hanging from his waist, and a string of Bodhi beads on his wrist.

The corners of his mouth were bleeding, and his eyes were terrifying and cruel.

This person is actually exactly the same as Li Chuyi.
