Chapter 9: The Nine Essences

Soul Han You was stunned: "This is the end?"

The old man put his hands behind his back, hunched his back, and walked slowly towards the ancestral hall, saying as he walked: "What else do you want to do?"

Soul Han You didn't want to do anything either.

I just want to know about my background.

I thought it would be like a fantasy story, a secret book, a weapon, or an elixir.

Then add a bag of tips, and leave a letter in the bag, and the letter must have at least a thousand words in the vernacular.

Even if it has nothing to do with your own life experience, at least you have to explain the usage and ins and outs of "things", right?

Well, I don't know what it is, and it got into my forehead.

If it's not what you guess, and if it has nothing to do with your parents...

And if this is a conspiracy, does that mean that from now on, you are basically finished?

The more soul Han You thought about it, the more worried he felt.

But what the hell can I do about this?

Not to mention a conspiracy, even if someone wanted to kill him now, he had no way to deal with it.

As long as he encounters that kind of little superpower, he can only wait for death.

"That's not right..."

Soul Han You hurriedly called the old man: "Senior, my soul is still outside, how can I return to my body?"

The old man waved his sleeves with his backhand, and the soul Han You suddenly followed his head and loaded it into his body.

Han You, whose spirit and body are one, moved for a while, and felt that his skills were as easy to use as always, and there was no problem like hemiplegia.

"Senior, why don't you think about it carefully and see if you can think of who that person is?" Han You really wanted to know, did the person who asked the old man to guard the "flame" have anything to do with him?

"I can't remember!"

The old man turned his back to Han You and shook his head slowly: "As for the thing in your head, you can try to communicate with him, remember that it should be feasible." ”

Han You was stunned for a moment, this old man was really sick, how could he communicate with a flame?

If you want to say that you can get through the second vein of Ren and Du, it is basically credible.

"Senior, don't give up on yourself, now that the outside world is quite developed, why don't we break out of here?

Seeing that the old man never wanted to eat people, Han You's old problem couldn't be suppressed, and he began to exert his peak cheekiness again.

The old man turned around, his small eyes narrowed together, as if he could see through the fear in Han You's heart.

He first patted his stomach, and then opened his mouth again, and Harazi decisively flowed to the ground, and said gloomily: "This seat is a little hungry." ”

Han You turned around with a solemn expression, and left without looking back.

The old man stood in place, and after watching the young man walk away, the old face, which was originally terrifying, suddenly showed a kind smile: "Silly boy, you may never know who I am, right?"

The old man who lowered his head and sighed softly then looked up at the sky in the distance, as if starting a dialogue with the air: "Little girl, the teacher has found him and raised him as an adult, you can go with confidence." ”

The old man walked to the door of the ancestral hall, sat on the threshold that was almost weathered, and said to himself, "As for that mark, I was once planted with a terrible curse by this girl of yours, and I couldn't even take it out as a teacher at the beginning, so half a month ago, I could only instruct another me to bring that stupid boy here." ”

The old man straightened his legs and feet, and finally straightened his back, and then leaned comfortably against the door: "Alas, don't say it, you won't hear it no matter how much you say."

Tell that stupid son of yours, I'm afraid he knows too much and can't digest it. ”

The old man looked up at the sky for the last time and said, "Cultivating the Avenue of All Souls, wading through the long river of time, old man, I am really tired." ”

After speaking, he slowly closed his eyes, and his body slowly turned into a cloud of green smoke and dissipated in front of the ancestral hall.

At the foot of Gengshi Mountain in the east of the village, the villagers have been dispersed for a while, and it is said that the time of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is different from the flow rate outside, and it may only be a momentary feeling when you go in, but it is usually two or three days after you come out.

In front of the stone gate at the foot of the mountain, which had long been closed, only the old village chief and his senior brother were still there at this moment.

The latter's name is unknown, and he is usually called the second elder by the villagers.

The sun is nearly setting in the west, and the day seems to be coming to an end again.

The two old men stood with their backs to their backs, each looking into the distance, as if they hadn't spoken for a long time.

After a while, the tall Second Elder suddenly turned his head and frowned: "Three hundred years ago, our master once said that ordinary people have one essence, and you have as many as eight realms, and to this day, this is still an unsolved mystery. ”

Seventeen years ago, you suddenly went to the outside world in a hurry, and a few days later brought back a baby girl and raised her as a granddaughter, but that time you only came back with one essence, and left the other seven realms in the outside world to protect a very important person, right?"

The second elder said to himself.

The skinny old village chief was unusual, still with his back to the senior brother who was quite prestigious on weekdays, and he didn't have the slightest intention of replying.

The tall Second Elder didn't mind either.

Then he said slowly: "Two years ago, all your other seven essences came back, and the others naturally didn't know, but I saw it very clearly.

Last night I went to the bamboo grove building, of course, not to relax, as you can guess, I made a special trip to see the little doll.

But I feel strange when I look at it, he is not as suspicious as you say, he is completely an ordinary human being, at least there is no sign of mutation at present, not to mention the so-called alien remnant, and of course he does not have the eye of the sky.

So, how did he see you half a month ago?

You know, you were wearing stealth gear at that time, and ordinary people couldn't see you at all, but how did he do it? Doesn't that sound unreasonable?

Later, I thought about it again, there is only one possibility, that is, on that day half a month ago, you deliberately let him see you.

Why would you do that? Because you need an excuse to bring him back to the Eight Formations, and for what purpose?

Before opening the Scripture Pavilion, I thought you owed him a favor to his parents, so I incarnated as another person, went to the outside world to raise him, and then found an opportunity to bring him to the Eight Formations Village, just to let him learn some spells.

Therefore, I specially gave him a promise last night, as long as he can enter the scripture pavilion to get the scriptures, I will accept him as a disciple, which can be regarded as obeying the wishes of you, a junior brother.

So I went to you early this morning and added his name to your little notebook, and you didn't object at the time.

But when he opened the Scripture Pavilion earlier, he was obviously able to enter, but you just separated a piece of essence and blocked the door of the Scripture Pavilion, slapping him away five times.

Other people's cultivation is not as good as you and me, so naturally they can't see it, but you, an unsuccessful senior brother, don't you get old-eyed, right?

Last night, I was really curious about his origin, so I casually found a reason to calculate a hexagram for him, that child has at least three relatives alive, you should be one of them, right?

In the past two years, you have blocked the Dan room, and no one is allowed to approach, you must be refining the Five Elements Pill, which is second only to the Taixuan Dan, right?

It's for that little doll?

Then why didn't you let him into the Scripture Pavilion?

The Second Elder paused and said, "There is one more thing that is even more strange, I'm afraid even our master doesn't know about it. Just now, I obviously felt a sense of fall, presumably the old man in the ancestral hall of the back mountain sat down, and at the same time, there was another essence in your body, and now there are as many as nine realms. ”

"Senior brother, who are you?"

At dusk, the thin old village chief finally turned his head and opened his mouth.

As soon as he was about to speak, he was stopped by the second elder raising his hand: "Senior brother, no matter how many doppelgangers you have, and no matter who you were in your previous life, but I am just a junior brother like you in this life, I hope we are not opposites!"

The old village chief lowered his head, and the thin old man who was full of worries at the moment was like two people compared to his crazy appearance in the past.

After saying all this, the second elder took a deep breath, then spit it out gently, then turned around and strode away.

Only the old village chief was left in the same place, and after a long time, he raised his head and happened to see Han You returning from the back mountain.

The latter rolled his eyes at him and walked away arrogantly whistling.

The old village chief shook his head helplessly, and scolded in a low voice: "Stinky boy, you are not suitable for the things in the Golden Pavilion at all, do you know?"
