Volume 1 The Chaos of Ducheng Chapter 3 The Past Past
In the vast mountains northwest of the river, there is a sea of bamboo.
Dark clouds were thick, thunder was rolling, and the moist air was filled with the scent of grass.
The path of the bamboo forest is covered with a lot of newborn moss.
A middle-aged man is walking down the trail with a young man.
The middle-aged man has a beard and a capable head, and his eyes are bright and burly. The young man has a delicate face, a slender figure, and a literati posture.
"Second uncle, it's going to rain. The young man in a black robe looked at the sky with melancholy eyes and sighed.
The middle-aged man smiled, an old face squeezed out many wrinkles, and reached out to hold up a large black umbrella, which happened to cover the two of them underneath.
The purpose of this trip is in the ancient building in front of him, so many years have passed, and many things have changed, and the young man asked: "Second uncle, do you say that he is still in it?"
The middle-aged man sighed, he had passed the age of joy or sorrow, and it was difficult for the changes in external objects to affect his emotions, but speaking of this person, an indescribable emotion still arose in his heart,
"His abilities are strange, I have never seen them in my life, and the passage of time is unlikely to annihilate him. ”
............
Heavy rain poured down, and the atmosphere in the whole Zhuhai was very depressing.
In the ancient building, a light flickered.
A young man in a Taoist robe was kneeling at the low table under the window, his long hair was a little scattered, his facial features were delicate, his skin was white, and the whole person was like an immortal running out of a painting, delicate and dusty.
.........
"This is it," said the youth.
The ancient building is still the same as many years ago, simple and heavy, and majestic.
A lot of paint fell off the red wooden door, and the middle-aged man reached out and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a long time, except for the knock on the door, only the sound of rain remained, and the two even felt their own slight breathing.
After all these years, he may have left. The young man thought.
"Second uncle, will he not be here anymore?"
The middle-aged man lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth, his eyes a little melancholy. He didn't speak, thinking to himself that if this cigarette was finished and there was no reaction inside, he broke down the door and walked so far that he couldn't return in vain.
.........
The young man in a Taoist robe was stunned when he heard the knock on the door. How many years have passed, and no one seems to have been here except her, is she back? The young man turned his head and turned his gaze from the window to the door.
The knocking on the door suddenly stopped.
The young man got up, and the dust on it was scattered.
"Who's out there?"
............
The middle-aged man snuffed out the cigarette butt with his hand, is there really no one?
.........
"Who's out there?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man's body trembled, and he ...... He's still in there.
.........
"Huang Yiping, Huang Zimo came. ”
.........
It turned out to be the two of the Huang family, and the man in a Taoist robe thought. He said, "Come in." ”
.........
Heavy rain, lightning and thunder, and the sky was gloomy.
Under the window of the ancient building, at the low table, the three of them sat on the straw mat, with different expressions and thoughts.
The fiery red charcoal under the teapot next to him continued to emit heat, and white water vapor continued to emerge from the teapot.
Huang Yiping's eyes were a little lonely, he never thought that after so many years, he had grown old like this, and Jiang Sake was still the same as before, almost no change.
"Jiang Qingjiu, between you and me, I will say it bluntly, the purpose of our trip is precisely for the mountain demon in Epiphany Village. ”
Jiang Qingjiu nodded, and his empty eyes did not stir up waves because of Huang Yiping's words. Staying alone in this deep mountain, even if the heart is like water, the passage of time will make people indifferent.
"The matter of the seal, your Huang family can't solve it, can you?"
Seal, these two words appeared in Huang Zimo's mind and sighed.
Whether it is the Huang family in Sichuan, the Wang family in the north, or the Su family in Suzhou, that one has not been involved for thousands of years, but after the great changes in heaven and earth, only these people are left to maintain order.
"Brother Jiang, today is different from the past. There are visions all over the world, and many things that have not been recorded before have escaped, and the mountain demon in Epiphany Village is no longer the one that the seal back then can seal. ”
Jiang Qingshu heard the words "oh": "So you found me." ”
Huang Yiping nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Jiang." If you want to re-seal, you can only break the previous seal, and the sealing technique left by Jiang's predecessors back then, our Huang family can't break it, so we can only seek Brother Jiang's help. ”
Jiang Qingjiu's expression was a little indifferent. The Huang family, if it weren't for the Huang family, would the Jiang family be what it is now? Although these two in front of them have some friendship, maybe this is not enough to make a move.
"You can ask the people above for help, there's no need to come to me. ”
Jiang Qingjiu's tone was indifferent and his attitude was resolute.
Huang Yiping paused, Jiang Qingjiu's attitude was beyond his expectations, in his heart, the overall situation is the most important, and other grievances and grievances are not worth talking about in front of the overall situation. He didn't expect Jiang Qingjiu to say this, but that was someone else's choice, how could he influence it.
Huang Zimo looked out the window, his eyes were full of melancholy, and he sighed deeply. If you enter the mountains early like Ginger Sake, you may not know what is happening in the outside world.
"Brother Jiang, we have broken off relations with the above. You may not know that after the death of the big man in the capital, some of the so-called movements began, and we were bloodbathed. Those who can escape and survive, otherwise they will flee abroad, or they will go into the mountains, live in seclusion, and sit indifferently.
The so-called organization is gone. Without that big man, we would be a mess, and we would have completely broken off our ties with those in power above. ”
Jiang Qingjiu was stunned, and these words made his heart tremble. The organization is gone, and now that visions are appearing everywhere, is the heavens and the earth going to change greatly? If the heavens and the earth change greatly, will she still come? The point of staying here seems to be gone.
Huang Yiping said again: "Brother Jiang, if that mountain demon from Epiphany Village escapes, even it will be difficult for you to trap him. ”
Jiang Qingjiu thought about it, and his attitude was a little shaken. If the life and death of the common people can shake him, then the life and death of that person is enough to make him out of the mountain.
.........
"When are you leaving?"
Huang Yiping was overjoyed, did he finally decide to go out of the mountain?
"How about leaving tomorrow?"
Jiang Qingjiu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "It's okay." But before I go, I want you to help me find someone. ”
Huang Zimo smiled with some curiosity, what kind of person could make Jiang Qingjiu beg for help. Could it be that there are other people who have been here over the years, or that they are former friends of Ginger Sake?
"Brother Jiang, please say, our Huang family will do our best. ”
Jiang Sake picked up a cup of hot tea, waved his sleeves, and poured out the hot tea in the cup like ink.
The steaming tea floated in the air, condensing into the head of a woman.
No matter how long it has passed, the deepest thoughts in my heart cannot be forgotten.
Huang Zimo was a little surprised, was Jiang Qingjiu just looking for a woman, what was so special about this woman?
"Brother Jiang, do you know her name?"
Jiang Qingjiu raised his glass and put away the tea in the air, looked into the distance with deep eyes, and said: Her name,,,
"Chen Yi. ”
............
Deep in the mountains of Epiphany Village,
The sky was overcast, the atmosphere was very oppressive, the reptiles and beasts had dispersed, and this place had become the territory of the mountain demons.
Jiang Qingjiu, who had already changed out of his robe, sighed: "This thing is not what it used to be, and what we have prepared may not be enough to seal it again." ”
Huang Yiping was carrying a large mountaineering bag, some beads of sweat appeared on his face, and he sat on the side panting heavily.
Huang Zimo smiled confidently, how could the Huang family let the three of them come alone, there were already people in front of them who were ready accordingly.
"Brother Jiang, the cousin Yiming in the clan has already brought someone there, so it's okay. ”
Jiang Qingjiu nodded, as he expected, the Huang family's methods would not be so simple, and he couldn't help but sigh that he was really meticulous.
............
In the sealed land, a great array has been erected. Dozens of people were divided into two groups and took turns to change the guard and guard the large formation.
.........
"Brother Yiming, now that the demonic energy is surging, if Zimo and the second uncle don't come back, maybe we will be in a very dangerous situation. A Huang family disciple said.
"Wait, Zimo and Second Uncle should be able to bring that Jiang family member back. ”
............
Outside the tent, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, and a little fat man with a yellowish face rushed into the tent sweating profusely.
"Report, report, the seal of the mountain demon has been loosened. The little fat man had a very loud voice, and the children of the Huang family in the tent heard it.
"Brother Yiming, how to deal with it?"
Yiming was a little undecided, Zimo and the second uncle did not arrive within the agreed time, which was unexpected, and now this place is under his command, and everyone's lives are in his hands.
"Brother Yiming, why don't we withdraw, this mountain demon is already too powerful, and we can't seal it. "Some people suggested that to them to stay here would be tantamount to waiting for death.
"Let's go, let's go hold it. Huang Yiming said in a deep voice, in his heart, Zimo and the second uncle would not miss the appointment.
.........
The demonic energy gushed out, soaring into the sky.
The children of the Huang family have a clear division of labor, and soon the previously broken formation was activated by everyone.
.........
"There's a demonic spirit!"
Jiang Qingjiu looked into the distance with deep eyes, a pair of innate yang eyes looked at the dark yellow demon qi rising to the sky, and said in shock, is this mountain demon already strong enough to this extent?
Huang Zimo shouted: "No, Second Uncle, Brother Jiang, it should have broken through the seal in advance, we have to hurry over." ”
At this moment, the three of them all knew that with Huang Yiming and the others plus the broken formation, they couldn't resist the mountain demon.
.........
The source of demonic energy, the gossip diagram condensed by the formation was constantly collided with the creatures underground.
A disciple of the Huang family sealed his hands, and the creatures in the ground gave him a huge coercion, he couldn't support it, spit out a mouthful of blood, and flew out upside down.
Huang Yiming's face turned pale and shouted: "Ah Chan goes up." ”
"Good!"
Another child of the Huang family jumped over.
Huang Yiming made a few cuts in his hand, and blood flew everywhere, but at this time, he couldn't care so much.
"Resist, wait for Zimo and the second uncle!"
............
The broken place of the gossip map suddenly shattered, and the mountain demon in the ground stretched out a huge claw. The children of the Huang family on the side were slapped sideways and flew out.
.........
In the sealed land, corpses were everywhere, and none of the children of the Huang family escaped alive. The huge demonic aura had dissipated, and the soil that had been turned red was stained red with blood, leaving a huge pit in the middle.
......
Huang Zimo looked at the scene in front of him, and was a little stunned for a while, and in an instant, the lives of these people were gone.
......
"Second uncle, Brother Zimo,"
Huang Yiming was lying on the ground, half of his face was wasted, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he called out the names of the two.
Huang Yiping's eyes were moist, and he was lively and cheerful on weekdays, but now he was lying here half-dead, and the strong visual impact made him feel sad.
He picked up Huang Yiming and asked, "Yiming, the mountain demon?"
Huang Yiming stretched out his finger and pointed to the west, the corners of his mouth moved, but he didn't make a sound.
Huang Zimo lowered his head and touched Huang Yiming's forehead with his forehead, and asked, "Yiming, do you want to say that the provincial capital is completed?"
Huang Yiming closed his eyes for a moment and fainted.
.........
Huang Zimo carried Huang Yiming back to Huang's house to save his life.
Jiang Qingjiu and Huang Yiping chased after them as fast as they could, and both of them gasped for breath, but they still didn't dare to slow down, because both of them knew that if they let the mountain demon run out, the outside world would be in chaos.
At that time, the focus of public opinion will return to them, and then they want to live like they are now, and it is estimated that it will not be so simple, which neither of them wants to see the result.
.........
The provincial capital of Sichuan is prosperous, with high-rise buildings and busy traffic, and the flow of people seems to have never stopped. Everyone was busy with their own work, and no one would have thought that a monster in their eyes was coming at them.
