Volume 3 Qi Guo Chapter 1 The Decline of Famous Families

On that day, Yan Che flaunted his might in front of King Qi Jin Shijie, leaving a big shadow on King Qi. For the first time in so many years, he was insulted like this, and he often took out his anger at the palace maid in the middle of the night and beat his minions. When I dreamed at night, I still dreamed that I was ravaged by the demons, and I resisted in my sleep, and I accidentally strangled the concubine who slept with me. However, in a few days, more than a dozen corpses were brought out of the palace dormitory, and in the past few days, he had a hard time sleeping and eating, and life was worse than death. The thought of fighting the demons in a few days made him laugh out loud in the empty room.

In order to prepare for this battle, the Golden Six Saints went to ask for help. Through the last battle, the six of them already knew the strength of the main force of the demons, and they had no chance of defeating the demons at present, so they used one night to recreate the enchantment that strengthened the royal city, and then left separately. Prime Minister He Zhiwan was communicating with other countries to discuss the matter of exterminating demons, but with little effect. All countries have temporarily sent troops on the grounds that they are not threatened by the demons. King Qi also expected that in the past, these surrounding countries were defeated by his subordinates, and they hated Qi to the core, and they couldn't wait for Qi and the demon clan to lose before reaping the benefits of the fisherman.

The Yin-Yang faction is the largest faction in the Qi Kingdom, located in the Qiankun Cave in the Qi Mountains north of the Qi Kingdom. The spells cultivated by the Yin and Yang faction often use the dead or the undead as a medium, and are spurned by the world, believing that they are evil sects, but as long as they have strength and use value, King Qi will reuse them. In fact, the Yin and Yang Sect belongs to the Yin Sect, and it is known as the two most famous cultivation sects of the Yin Sect along with the Corpse King Sect. Huang Qiying is a disciple of the soul master of the Yin-Yang Sect. After Huang Qiying became the Golden Six Sages, King Qi listed the Yin and Yang faction as the righteous faction of the Qi State, which made other countries think that the Qi State was not right, and it was a big rebellion, but there was a gap in strength, so he didn't dare to say anything positively.

Huang Qiying walked for two days before coming to Qiankun Cave in Qishan. When you reach Qiankun Cave, you have to pass through a dense forest, which is equipped with a trap barrier to prevent outsiders from trespassing and disciples from escaping.

Huang Qiying hadn't returned to the sect for many years, and he had a vague memory of enchantments and mechanisms. But he had to go back and ask his master to come out of the mountain, this time the strength of the demons was extraordinary, without the help of these saints with superior realms, even a million soldiers and horses would not help.

Huang Qiying stepped into the woods, and sure enough, after stepping in with his front foot, he instantly felt that the sky was dark, and the sunlight above his head was blocked. At this moment, the enchantment has been activated, and this enchantment is separated from the gossip and is endless. The people in the formation have been in an illusion and cannot distinguish reality, the reason is that there is a similar but different qi in the formation than the person who entered the formation. The formation disturbs people's hearing and hearing, and in the chaos, there will be a mechanism to trigger, which can take life at any time. Ordinary psychedelic arrays make people's five senses wrong, seeing instead of seeing, hearing and hearing, but as long as the flaws are found, the general psychedelic array is at most just delaying time. Huang Qiying knew that in the enchantment, he had to isolate his five senses, and at the same time, he couldn't be lucky. Qi is the product of the earth's creatures, that is to say, people must have qi when they are alive, and if they have qi in the array, they will be hit. Therefore, the dead have no qi, and the soul after death will have another power - soul power, also known as spiritual power. The Yin-Yang sect is a sect that has a deep grasp of aura. Huang Qiying still had an impression of this "reincarnation array", he used the soul separation technique, his soul was separated from the body, and the soulless body fell to the ground at once. Huang Qiying in the soul state is still conscious, this is the secret technique of their sect, ordinary people's souls will be unconscious after leaving the body, and after a long time, they will become lonely ghosts, and they can control their own souls and the souls of others. In his soul state, he found his way out of the forest and also found the location of the traps along the way. After returning to his main body, he was still in the barrier, but he had memorized the safe route, so he walked out of the forest unscathed.

The drunken turned out to be a monk of the Great Compassion Temple, and was later expelled from Buddhism. If it is said that being drunk is just a greedy cup and violating the drinking precept, it will not be swept away, but he has committed a more serious sin, so that the abbot of the Great Compassion Temple will not be able to keep him. The last short fight with Yan Che knew that he had lost a mess, and he decided to return to the Great Compassion Temple to ask the abbot of the temple to get rid of the demons and help the world.

The country of Qi is not a country of worshipping Buddha, so the incense in the temple is very deserted. In recent years, it has been even more difficult to continue, and many monks have left the monastery after returning to the laity.

When I walked to a small village, I was so drunk that I forgot the way to the temple, so I asked the villagers for the way to the Dabei Temple. The villagers looked at this drunken man who was carrying a wine jug and was drunk all day long, and at first glance he was a person who had no connection with Buddhism, and pointed to a road. However, fate is not something that can be influenced by people, and under the wrong guidance, drunk still found the Great Compassion Temple. He looked up, saw the mossy temple top on the mountainside, took a sip of wine, and walked up the mountain. The front of the temple gate is piled with leaves, like a small hill bag. A young monk sweeps the floor in front of the door. Seeing that he was drunk, the little monk put down his broom and walked towards the drunk.

"Is the donor here to ask for a lot or to worship the Buddha?" asked the little monk politely.

"You're new here? I haven't seen you before. ”

"It seems that the donor is a frequent visitor, and the little monk has only been in Buddhism for a month. ”

The drunken saw that the little monk's head was also freshly shaved, and he was young, maybe only ten years old, or even younger. No one wants to send their children to the temple, parents hope that the future will be full of children, this little monk should be an orphan without a father and mother, adopted by the abbot or other monks.

"Is Abbot Faci there?" asked the little monk drunk.

"Yes, the abbot is worshipping the Buddha inside. Please go with the little monk. There is also a strict Buddhist prohibition of alcohol, so please do not bring it into the temple. The little monk pointed to the flask on his drunken waist and said.

The drunken glanced at his wine jug, took it out, put it on the ground, and followed the little monk into the monastery.

The temple is also deserted, the original candles are all lit, and the smell of incense has always filled the air, but now only the two candles in front of the Buddha are lit. From the temple gate to the open space in front of the Buddha hall, the incense burner was not lit, it was empty, and no one had burned incense for a long time. Drunken asked the little monk what his name was and where the other monks in the temple were.

"The little monk's name is Kongzhou, and there is no one else in the temple except for me, who cooks rice and a senior brother named Kongqiu. The abbot is in the Buddha hall, and the donor asks for help, and if you need help, you can tell the little monk. ”

This ten-year-old kid recalls his childhood, when he was only seven years old when he took refuge in Buddhism, watching the Temple of Great Compassion go from incense to no one's attention. Before he could enter, an old voice came out of the hall.

"Is it Kukai? Come in. ”

I didn't expect that after so many years, the abbot still remembered him. Drunk, the original Buddhist family name Kukai, walked into the Buddha hall in the Great Compassion Temple.

Many years ago, it was believed that only living things could move, and flowers, birds, fish, and beasts were called life. Later, there was a Taoist school, called the Mo family, they knew all kinds of Qimen Dunjia, the invention of the mechanism, their clever skills can make lifeless puppets walk, but also can give people wings to experience soaring in the air. But the puppet is a puppet after all, just a wooden man manipulated by people, when people see the puppet expressionless, no one's joy, anger, sorrow, love and hatred, or no one recognizes them. The Mo family finally disappeared in this world because of loneliness, and a hundred years ago, people would still be amazed by the puppets that could move around on their own, and now, this once prosperous Taoist sect has declined to a few people left.

In Cao Li's room, it was full of all kinds of novel playthings. He is the last descendant of the Mo family, the inventor of weapons in the Qi State, and the governor of organ defense. His master Mo Ge, before his death, wrote down all the tips for making puppets in a book, and told him before handing them to Cao Li: If you learn to make puppets, you will be separated from the crowd society, and you will have no communication and will be lonely for a lifetime. Cao Li, who was young at the time, naturally didn't understand, and it wasn't until many years later that he realized the deep meaning of what his master said at that time.

He sits at a table and examines an object with a homemade crystal magnifier. A female-looking puppet approached step by step, holding a cup of tea in her hand. The puppet placed the tea firmly on the table, and then stood motionless beside Cao Li.

"Thank you, Ai. Nine days later, the Qi Kingdom is going to fight against the Demon Clan, and I am one of the Six Golden Saints of the Qi Kingdom, so I should go on the expedition. There may be a time when it will be tempting to leave you. But don't worry, with my mind and strength, I will definitely be able to solve the demon clan soon, and I will be with you right away. “

Cao Li looked at the female puppet and smiled stupidly, but the puppet was naturally expressionless, and Cao Li was talking to himself.

The origin of the Mo family is said to be as follows: there was a couple in a village, the two of them were busy in the fields, and suddenly a person flew down from the sky. This man has a pair of wings, he is a member of the Feather Clan, and he has always lived in the air, and people on the earth rarely see it. The man of the Yu tribe liked this peasant woman, and the peasant woman finally left her husband and flew into the sky with the people of the Yu tribe. The husband could not do anything and cried and begged his wife to stay, but she laughed at him and changed her mind if he could fly into the sky. Later, the farmer made the tools that could go to heaven on his own, but they all failed. Once, he jumped off a cliff wearing wings made of himself, and finally fell heavily at the bottom of the cliff. The farmer survived, but both of his legs were crushed. The farmer thought he was going to die, but there were still people at the bottom of the valley! The mysterious man rescued him, sawed his legs to save his life, and put a prosthetic leg on him. The farmer saw the mysterious man making all kinds of dolls in a cave at the bottom of the valley, and these dolls were able to move on their own and walk like a normal person. The farmer saw that the doll was just an ordinary doll, but the mysterious man put a whitish stone into the doll's body, and the doll could move. The mysterious man recites a spell that puzzles him, and the doll can walk or work alone. The farmer asks the mysterious man to teach him this skill, and the mysterious man asks the farmer why he wants to learn it. The farmer replied that he wanted to go to heaven, and the mysterious man laughed. He laughed at him at first, then suddenly changed his attitude, and said that you will be lonely forever if you learn this spell, do you still want to learn it?" replied the farmer without thinking. The mysterious man later taught him the spell. After the farmer finished his studies, he said goodbye to the mysterious man and used a puppet to lift himself up the cliff, he returned to the world and carried forward this technology, because the farmer is called Mo Li, so this sect is also called the Mo family.

It is said that Moli finally made a bird that could fly into the sky, and it really flew into the sky. But no one knows what the final outcome will be.

Cao Li is the last descendant of the Mo family, and the reason why he is called Li is that he hopes that he can go to heaven and earth like the original Dao Venerable Moli and let the Mo family revitalize.

This female puppet was made in the form of his lover, who died at a young age, and Cao Li made a puppet in her likeness. Most of the withdrawn characters of the Mo family stem from this, to the deceased

Missing can make it difficult to integrate with real life. Perhaps the reason why the mysterious person who met Mo Li, the patriarch of the Mo family, invented the puppet was probably because he understood that the physical body would eventually disappear, and as long as the puppet was well preserved, it would not be bad for thousands of years.

Cao Li took the female puppet to a warehouse, he lifted a piece of cloth, and behind the cloth was a male puppet, exactly like Cao Li.

"Xiao Ai, soon I will be with you forever. Cao Li hugged the puppet and kissed her deeply.

He Wuru is the granddaughter of He Zhiwan, and Jin Meng is a distant royal family, one father is a military general of the imperial court, the other is the granddaughter of the prime minister of the Three Dynasties, and the two are childhood sweethearts. They have been cultivated since childhood, and have the martial arts and mental methods of various sects, Jin Meng's golden armor can make the body invulnerable, water and fire are invulnerable, and He Wuru learned the illusion technique, which can use the voice to make people psychedelic. The last time Jin Meng was subdued, he still remembered vividly, and he strengthened his training at home, so that his subordinates kept cutting him with weapons. He Wuru knew that Jin Meng was arrogant, so he didn't look for him in the past few days, for fear of hurting his self-esteem.

In fact, there is no hardest shield in the world, but there is no sharper spear. Jin Meng's subordinates first hit his body with wooden sticks, and after the wooden sticks were broken, they were replaced with iron tools, and after all kinds of knives, guns, swords, and halberds smashed on him, Jin Meng made people pour hot oil on himself. The subordinates watched the hot oil pour on Jin Meng's body, and they didn't dare to approach in fear, but Jin Meng was still not satisfied. Although his body was not harmed by the hot oil, he could still feel the pain of the oil's temperature. He has been bullied since he was a child, and he used to be a weak person, although he has the same surname as the Qi Kingdom, he is not a member of the royal family. For many years, he has escorted King Qi, and his body has never fallen, until he was defeated by one move, he realized that his strength was no longer able to protect King Qi. King Qi could only leave valuable people around him, he climbed up step by step, knowing the days of hunger and cold spent outside the city walls in the past, he raised his arms and shouted in the courtyard, vowing to break through himself in these days and make himself truly indestructible.

That night, He Zhiwan came to He Ruthless's room to negotiate with her.

"This revival of the demon race is really rare. Originally, there were still some demon monsters left in the world, but the threat was insignificant. Last time, the strength of those demons was comparable to the demon king of a hundred years ago, and now it is different from the past, and there are still major gods who are admired by the world for a hundred years and help eliminate demons, but now that the gods have disappeared in the world, only the power of human beings is afraid that it is weak. If an alien joins us, our odds will be much greater. “

"Does Grandpa mean the tribe of the Red Fang?"

"Red Fang is a descendant of the orcs and humans, and although they are rejected by the orcs, they have their blood after all. Orcs are strong, able to shake trees with one hand, pull mountains and rivers, and use one as a hundred. Only the complete victory of King Qi can be happy, King Qi has always done things by unscrupulous means, and he will not give up until he achieves his goal, with the character of King Qi, if he makes a mistake in the future, I am afraid that he will ......"

"Grandpa, don't worry, Red Fang has already gone to the Hundred Beast Country in the northwest. Although I don't know if I will succeed or not, I don't forget that Red Fang is still half a human being. “

said that Red Fang is actually a person with a miserable background. In his early years, his mother strayed into the realm of the Hundred Beasts, was captured and insulted by the orcs, and became pregnant. He was trained as a warrior by orcs since he was a child, but his appearance was different from that of orcs and he was ostracized. His mother instilled in him the idea of revenge since he was a child, and he was not allowed to call the orcs his father in private, and he must kill the orcs with his own hands when he grew up, and he must always remember that he is a human. Finally, on that day, Red Fang killed his father, and he came home to take his mother away, but he didn't expect his mother to kill herself. In the end, he spent more than 30 years of this miserable life, all the while figuring out the meaning of his life. He couldn't understand why his mother hated the orcs so much that she had given birth to herself, or why she had let her innocent self destroy her family. He wandered through the nations like a lost beast. One day he attacked the army of Qi State, and He Wuru happened to be among them, He Wuru controlled him with illusion, and finally brought him back to Qi State and became the Golden Six Sages.

This Hundred Beast Country is not actually a country, but a collective name for various beast races. Back then, the demons were raging, and the anger permeated the world, and many animals were infected and ran wild, turning into demon beasts. Some are under the command of the demon clan and become the demon beast clan, such as the tribe of the green wolf, and some are independent from the world, no one obeys anyone, and can compete with any race for territory and mates. They were alien to humanity and struggled with them for hundreds of years before being driven to the northwest of the continent.

Red Fang came to the realm of the Hundred Beast Kingdom, and the scent on his body would soon attract many demon beasts to come.

Sure enough, in just half an hour, a group of demon beasts and orcs surrounded him.

The orc led by the blue-faced fangs, said curiously: "How can this guy have the taste of our orcs?"

Red Fang also showed his fangs and said, "There is no need to tell you. Who is the boss of your Hundred Beast Kingdom now? “

The orc laughed, "What are you? Tell you, I'm the boss in this territory!" Eat him!" The orc gave an order, and the demon beast and the orc next to him jumped up to attack him.

After a while, the previously proud orcs knelt on the ground, watching Red Fang come unharmed, and those demon beasts and orcs were all knocked down by him.

Chiya patted him on the shoulder and said, "Are you really the boss here?"
