Chapter 368: The entanglement of grievances is finally empty
As soon as Fang Ming's words came out, the faces of Xianyun and Wang Guodong changed at the same time, although they guessed that the old man with scars was the child back then, but they didn't expect that the old man with scars would be the biological son of Qiu Chenzi and Widow He.
"Even if he is my master's child, my master is dead, and no one can stop me. ”
After half a ring, Xian Yun snorted coldly, looking at the scarred old man's eyes with disdain, if his master was still alive, of course he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant, but he was already sure that his master was dead, so he became fearless.
"Since you are my master's son, it would be better, let you watch me get the dragon crystal in the castle, and if you want to come to my master's hometown to know in the underworld, your expression will definitely be wonderful. ”
Xianyun didn't have much respect for Qiu Chenzi, because Qiu Chenzi didn't have a good heart when he took him as an apprentice, he just needed someone to do things for him.
To put it bluntly, Xianyun is a chess piece in Qiu Chenzi's hand, which was cultivated by Qiu Chenzi to complete some tasks, and Xianyun also knows this, but because of Qiu Chenzi's strength, although he has rebellion in his heart, he does not dare to show it.
However, this kind of rebellion began to take root in Xianyun's heart after Qiu Chenzi's death, and continued to grow, so that he no longer had the slightest awe of Qiu Chenzi in his heart later.
"Brother Xianyun, the talisman on the castle has disappeared. ”
Wang Guodong saw the red talisman on the city gate disappear, his face showed joy, Xianyun's expression was also slightly excited, and then he looked at Fang Ming and the old man with the scar, "Don't worry, I won't do it to you now, I want you to see that after I get the dragon crystal that my master has worked so hard to get, I will decide your fate, maybe I will spare you if I am in a good mood." ”
Fang Ming smiled faintly and didn't argue, just watched Wang Guodong step forward and push the iron door open, this iron door that had been sealed for more than sixty years was pushed open with a creak, and in the end, his true face was completely revealed.
The castle is not big, and the moment it was opened, what caught Fang Ming's eyes were rows of mud platforms, which were more than a foot high and were watered with loess. It's like a gourd.
"The bodies of the dead are in this clay platform. ”
Wang Guodong's face was shocked, his father had said that the corpses of those victims were all packed in the mud platform by Qiu Chenzi, and what Qiu Chenzi told the villagers was that in this way, these grievances could be sealed in the mud platform and would not leak out and hurt the people in the village.
"The mud platform seals the corpses, and the grievances can't come out, so they will go to the ground, and finally hurt the dragon veins, you must know that the loess is a symbol of the earth, and these yellow muds are not simple, when stirring, my master and he secretly added the blood dragon grass. ”
Xianyun saw these clay platforms with a look of disdain on his face, because only he knew what was going on with these clay platforms.
"Blood Dragon Grass?"
Fang Ming frowned, while Ye Ziyu on the side asked with some curiosity, "Brother Fang Ming, what is the Blood Dragon Grass?"
"A special plant that specializes in absorbing the breath of the earth, we know that everything in the world is inseparable from the moisture of the earth's qi, but everything in the world is only moistened by the breath of the dragon vein, to put it bluntly, the breath of the earth is automatically given to you, but there is a plant that is different, it is actively absorbing the dragon vein qi in the earth's qi, and it is also crazy absorption. ”
Heaven and earth are filled with the qi of the earth, and the qi of the dragon veins as the best of them is not trivial, for ordinary people, they enjoy the gift of the qi of the earth, rather than taking the initiative to absorb the qi of the earth.
Even if it is a cultivator, it is impossible to absorb the earth qi cleanly, because the quantity and majesty of the earth qi are not at all absorbed by one or two living beings.
If the air of the earth is compared to the ocean, even if ordinary people fill the sea alone, it is just a drop in the bucket for the ocean.
But the Blood Dragon Grass is different, the special thing about the Blood Dragon Grass is that it can absorb the qi of the earth infinitely, but the most important thing is that the blood dragon grass that absorbs the qi of the earth will not bring much change to itself, or even useless.
Someone once speculated that the appearance of the Blood Dragon Grass was to maintain the balance of heaven and earth, because heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, and if the qi of the earth is too strong, it will eventually lead to no distinction between yin and yang, and the whole world will no longer have heaven but earth.
The blood dragon grass is used to consume the qi of the earth, so that the aura of heaven and earth in this world is in balance, and the lifespan of a blood dragon grass is only less than three years, but the qi of the earth that can be absorbed in three years is an extremely terrifying amount.
"Blood Dragon Grass, let the dragon vein bleed, this is the meaning of its name, of course, some people say that the reason why there is Blood Dragon Grass is that the rules of this world do not allow the existence of people who are too rebellious to the sky, after all, if the aura of heaven and earth in the whole land reaches a terrifying level, it is very likely to give birth to some extremely powerful races, just like the Monkey King in Journey to the West, a stone can give birth to a living soul. ”
These descriptions of the Blood Dragon Grass Fang Ming all knew from his master's mouth, but there was no record of the Blood Dragon Grass in the wizard lineage, which showed that in the wizard's time, there was no such plant as the Blood Dragon Grass.
"My master has worked hard to find the Blood Dragon Grass, and with the grievances of the victims, this dragon vein spirit will naturally not stay here after the resentment washes away and the dragon vein qi that is constantly being sucked away, and will definitely turn around and leave here, and at the same time, the dragon crystal will be left behind. ”
Xianyun walked directly into the castle, crossed those mud platforms and continued to walk inside, Fang Ming was about to follow in, but the scarred old man suddenly stopped in front of Fang Ming.
"Young man, can you do a favor?"
The old man with the scar looked at Fang Ming, but Fang Ming was a little surprised, he didn't know why the old man with the scar would say such things to himself at this time.
"As long as it doesn't go against my principles, I will do what I can. ”
The old man with scars nodded, "If you can, help me find the mute kid back then, his name is Iron Bull." ”
Hearing the old man scarred's request, Fang Ming's pupils shrank, but before he could reply, the old man scar suddenly ran in the direction of the castle, and after running into the castle, his right hand pressed under the city wall on the left side of the castle.
"What are you doing?"
Wang Guodong discovered the scarred old man's actions, but it was already too late, the scarred old man's face showed a relieved smile, and he looked at Fang Ming outside the castle, "Young man, I'll leave all this to you." ”
Crash!
The iron gate of the castle that was originally opened actually began to close automatically at this time, and the faces of Wang Guodong and Xianyun Daoist, who had just stepped into the castle, changed instantly, because they didn't know what was going on, could it be that there was still a mechanism in this castle?
"I am his child after all, he once left me a letter, which recorded everything in this castle, he told me, if he can't come back, then I can take the things in the castle, but what he doesn't know is that I have no interest in what dragon crystal is, what I want to know is the whistleblower back then. ”
This was the last voice of the old man with scars, followed by the roars of Xianyun and Wang Guodong, but Fang Ming couldn't hear the voices of the next two, because there were sudden gusts of wind and thunder in the castle, and the entire castle began to shake.
"Fang Ming, what's going on?" Ye Ziyu looked at the shaking castle in surprise, and at the same moment, Ling Yao didn't continue to pretend, she who had witnessed and heard the conversation between Fang Ming and the others before, had a puzzled look on her face at this moment.
Qiu Chenzi left his hand, the castle's guardian formation is one, and I am afraid there is also a formation in the castle, and this formation Qiu Chenzi told the old man, after all, this is his son. ”
Fang Ming's expression became very complicated, he could imagine how resentful the old man was for his father, that is, his father killed the lives of his playmates for his own selfish interests, and also killed so many victims, and even his mother was driven crazy and disappeared because of this.
Fang Ming could imagine how cold-hearted Qiu Chenzi was, I am afraid that the reason why the old man with scars would know the mechanism in the castle was because Qiu Chenzi stayed when he was sure that he would definitely die, otherwise, in the hearts of people like Qiu Chenzi, even his own flesh and blood would not be as important as Long Jinglai.
Rumble!
However, after a minute or so, the city wall suddenly began to show signs of collapse, Fang Ming frowned, looked at the many villagers not far from the city wall, walked to the place where the Xianyun Daoist planted the flag, and pinched his hands, and as his handprints changed, those villagers stayed away from the castle one after another and stood in a row.
The dust was flying, and it took a few minutes to completely dissipate, and Fang Ming, Ye Ziyu, and Ling Yao saw the situation in the castle clearly at this moment.
A piece of remnant soil, those mud platforms collapsed one after another, revealing the white bones inside, and Xianyun and Wang Guodong fell on the white bones, the two of them were full of scars, it can be said that there is no complete place in the body, as for the scarred old man, although he is a little better, he is also bleeding.
"What's going on?"
Ye Ziyu and Ling Yao were not cultivators, they didn't understand how this castle could collapse after just a while, while Fang Ming sighed and motioned for Ye Ziyu to stand where he was and not to go in, while he walked towards the castle.
"Ahem, young man, do you know how my scar came about, it was caused by him, when he asked me to guard this castle for him, I didn't want to, so he let a poisonous insect get through my nose, and finally, bit my face out. ”
The old man with the scar fell in a pool of blood, looking at Fang Ming, for him, death is not terrible, on the contrary, death means a kind of relief, there are only two motivations to support him to live over the years, one is to destroy this castle full of sin, and the other is to find out the whistleblower back then.
The former needs someone like Xianyun to crack the outside formation seal, and the latter needs him to investigate, and at this moment, his two goals have been achieved, and he has no regrets in this life.
"Remember, what promised me ......"
The old man with the scar finally closed his eyes with a smile on his face, Fang Ming stared at the old man's face for a few seconds before retracting his gaze, not knowing what to say except for a slight sigh.
However, in the end, when his gaze looked beyond Xianyun and Wang Guodong to the innermost part of the castle, his eyes lit up, and there was a flash of light in his eyes.
