Chapter 658: The Purple Garden Reappears
Wutong Ridge halfway up the mountainside of the Liuyun view is a dead silence, the whole view is not only not the slightest light, not even a trace of vitality, the original surrounding jungle night wind is swaying, the shadows of the trees are swaying, the birds are singing and insects are singing, but now it is silent, everything is like being frozen, not to mention insects and birds, even ants are not half a half.
The scattered buildings are particularly dark and mysterious under the moonlight, from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to the surrounding houses, to the main hall, to the side hall and the courtyard, all of which are covered with a layer of gray and obscure clothing, like old decay, making people feel unapproachable and even prohibitive.
A figure appeared at the mountain gate, stopped and stared at the seal attached to the gate, couldn't help sighing, stretched out his hand and pushed open the mountain gate directly, the creaking sound and this sigh were not very loud, but it was extremely infectious, in an instant, the mountain gate seemed to come alive, the layer of gray and dim ruin quickly receded, and with the figure slowly moving forward, the speed of fading suddenly accelerated, and in the blink of an eye, it spread to the entire Taoist temple, until it disappeared.
The Taoist temple and its surroundings are recovering the breath of the past, and the rich smell of incense seems to have been suppressed for a long time, washing the entire hall with a vigorous momentum, and a mountain wind is coming, completely sweeping away the residual rotten smell that permeates it.
The figure looked at the statue of the patriarch of the Sanqing Dynasty, stood with his hands down for a moment, then bypassed the futon, took the incense candle on the side case, lit it with a light touch of his fingertips, and then settled the candle, raised the incense above his head with both hands and bowed to the top of his head.
The three pillars of incense were inserted in the incense burner, and the whole hall completely restored the scene of the past, the yellow curtain hanged, * solemn, in the candle flame swaying, as if you could still see the Taoist priests doing evening classes under the leadership of Bai Yun, the figure stood sideways again, the right ear and ear root quickly shrugged a few times, and then bowed slightly to the golden body of the Sanqing patriarch, and quickly turned to leave.
The figure went straight to the back along the corridor, his body was extremely erratic and fast, and in the blink of an eye, he passed through the small door and came to the door of Baiyun's residence, and when he passed by the corridor on the right, he obviously sensed a very familiar atmosphere, and couldn't help but look back at the place where the wall collapsed, which had been surrounded by the blue and white plastic cloth commonly used in building construction, which looked very eye-catching.
The figure gave up the intention of entering the room for the time being, turned around and walked slowly to the fence, the familiar breath made his heart move, but it seemed to be mixed with a trace of a smell that he hated, salty and salty, with a stench, could it be that the quaint round arch behind was really gone?
After a little hesitation, the figure slowly stretched out his hand to touch the plastic sheet, and suddenly a strange voice came, just behind this thin plastic sheet, fierce, old, and chilling, with a bang, the figure suddenly tore open the plastic sheet, and the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded.
A circle of pale fluorescence like a silver plate is presented in front of you, the picture is as familiar as in the past, or the quaint round arch, but the color is extremely dull, if it is not for the great contrast in the dark night tone, it is difficult to see with the ordinary naked eye, and the strange thing is that there is a blood-red thing like a strip of flesh sandwiched between the two semicircular doors.
What's even more strange is that this strip of meat is dancing non-stop, I don't know what is hidden in the part that is caught inside, or it is trying its best to escape, and it makes that kind of terrible sound in its anger, ordinary ears can't hear it, but the figure can feel the evil and ferocity of this thing.
The meat strip had already sensed the breath of the body, and the struggle was even more crazy at the moment, the fluorescence flickered and dimmed under the violent shaking of the object, as if it was unsustainable, and the intermittent sound floated out of the crack in the door, but it made the figure tremble, "Surrender this thing, come to the garden." β
The figure no longer hesitated, leaned out his right hand, his five fingers bluffed, and with a bang, he stuck the shaking strip of meat, and it was extremely cold in his hand, and a monstrous cold air rushed into the body along the fingers of the figure, it was hard to imagine that this strip of flesh of the fiery red color would be so strangely cold, like a thousand years of ice, the figure's right upper arm was turning into a blue ice crystal at a speed visible to the naked eye, gradually spreading to his upper arm.
The figure shouted, a huge ball of light at the dantian rotated rapidly, the body instantly overflowed with golden light, and the whole body suddenly turned into dark gold, looking like a golden man from a distance, at the same time, a small person suddenly appeared in the seal hall of the figure, and after rolling continuously, he froze his body, and suddenly opened his mouth to spray a golden light to the meat strip, and with a thud, the milky white mist filled the sky, and the meat strip seemed to be in extreme pain, roaring and struggling hysterically under the opponent's golden palm.
The little golden man is the form of Li Tianyi's divine sense, and the figure is naturally Li Tianzhen himself, he left the secret unit and quickly got a locomotive, and went straight to Wutongling all the way, he wanted to see a white cloud, and also wanted to see the purple garden again, is it really gone, but he didn't expect to look at the mountain gate from a distance at the foot of the mountain, but it was such a dilapidated scene, according to the instructor's description of the Liuyunguan bloody case, it has only been a few days, and there must be an article in it.
Looking at it now, it was such a demon who was making trouble, Li Tianji's divine sense was released far away, and there were no other suspicious murderous creatures, and his whole body relaxed.
The sealing of the mountain gate is the behavior of the official family, it must be related to the murder, needless to say, Bai Yun is not here, but he has not yet figured out the specific reason, but the demon took the opportunity to make trouble, he Jedi will not be soft, in a fit of anger, his arm strengthened, and suddenly pulled the whole strip of meat out of the crack in the door, and the roar of the mountains and seas shook Li Tianqi's eardrums were numb, and the villain on his seal hall was a tumbling, and after fixing again, he sprayed a golden light at the meat strip, and in the thin mist, the fierce struggle of the meat strip has been significantly reduced, and the second half of it was torn out was actually split into three strands, like the tentacles of a squid, clutching a small colored object like a bell, glowing with dazzling lightγ
"Doll, do you really want to destroy my form?" A hoarse and evil voice came, full of dying and threatening smell, and the meat strip actually opened his mouth to speak, but Li Tianji didn't find the face of this monster after looking at it for a long time.
"What are you? Monster from nowhere?"
"You also deserve to ask the old man's origin?" Unexpectedly, the meat strip was extremely arrogant under the dying, and the sentence 'old man' made Li Tianqi cry and laugh.
"If you don't say anything, you will suffer something. Li Tianqi replied lightly, the golden villain on his forehead spewed out a third golden light again, this one was slightly different from the previous two, the purple brilliance contained in the dark golden light, like the power of the enveloper to plunder all life, so that the meat strip couldn't help but scream, it never thought that the unattractive figure in front of him actually had the supreme mana of the fairy world, although the fire was much worse, but it was an extremely rare high-grade immortal method, just this little light was enough to make it fly into ashes and annihilate.
"Spare its life for now. In the crack of the door, the ethereal voice came again, extremely soft and kind, Li Tianzhen's figure was united, the golden light emitted by the Yin Hall suddenly dimmed, and the golden villain also danced a few times and gradually disappeared.
The meat strip was forced to let go of the object that looked like a small bell, Li Tianzhen took it in his hand and looked at it, this flow was brilliant, and the color emitted was like a colorful light field, and his mind turned a few times, but he heard the voice call him to enter.
Li Tianzhen did not hesitate, pushed the door and walked through the light curtain, the scene in front of him was unfamiliar to him, the familiar bamboo forest, thatched huts, rockeries and those strange old trees were all gone, in front of him was a platform, the radius was not big, not even an acre of land, there was a building like a stone tower in the center of the platform, more than one person high, the whole body was crystal clear, and there was a flame-shaped opening in the middle, which emitted a soft white light from the inside.
Under his feet is a piece of square brick paved ground of unknown material, stepping on it is very warm, Li Tianqi looked around, at the end of the right side, the stone platform where he used to meditate has disappeared, "Excuse me, is this still the Purple Garden?"
"Please come closer and speak. The voice seemed to come from the stone tower, still very soft, although the words were jerky, but it was full of concern for Li Tianzhen and even had a little awe.
Li Tianqi frowned, his consciousness unconsciously became vigilant, he remembered that when he strayed into Xi Lao's secret realm, the colorful feathers could generally spit out words if they wanted to come to life, and told him that this purple garden was his object, it seemed like a dream at the time, and it felt very unreal, could it be that the purple garden had become another secret realm?
"This is no longer the Purple Garden, what you see is the light and shadow remaining on its back. β
"So what is Purple Garden, and where did it go?"
"The Purple Garden is a high-grade artifact in the fairy world, a treasure in the words of the mortal world, and it has returned to the fairy world, leaving light and shadow waiting for your arrival. β
"Immortal realm, artifact, is there really any supernatural thing such as demons, gods, monsters or parallel spaces in this world?" Although Li Tianji thought so, he also knew that there were too many strange things that happened to him, in fact, he had already unconsciously believed in the authenticity, but he doubted in depth whether he was dreaming again, and he couldn't help but pinch himself as soon as his hand tightened, but he didn't expect the meat strip to scream and scream, and he was almost strangled to death by Li Tianji.
"The thing in your hand is a famous demon in the demon world, but this is only a small part of his divine sense, Ziyuan left two artifacts for you, a small supernatural power, one is the armor helmet in your hand, and the other is this exquisite square box, this thing can imprison it, specifically used to lock the demon's soul and divine sense. The voice stopped, and a small pale golden square box slowly rose from the opening of the flames, emitting a faint golden light.
Li Tianzhen took a closer look, this thing is about a little larger than an ordinary matchbox, like jade but not jade, I don't know what material it is made of, the side is wrapped with fine gold thread, extremely exquisite, there are no ornaments on the box lid, only a few strange words, which makes Li Tianzhen frown, it seems that he has seen it somewhere.
"The full name of this thing is Linglong Lock Heart Box, and the way to open and use it is also very simple, just use your divine sense to probe, you have finally recovered some magical powers now, and when your divine consciousness is further awakened, you can re-wear the Seven Flame Armor by fusing with the rest of the five colors. β
"I don't understand at all, who are you?" Ziyuan?" The other party's voice became more and more subtle, and the surrounding scene was slowly dimming, Li Tianji's heart suddenly tightened, reminding him of the scene before the companion soul disappeared.
