Chapter Seventy-Two: Many Offenses
"Haha, thanks to you, of course I remember. Wang Xu nodded and said, "I was pregnant in October and came out of shape!"
"I haven't asked you, what happened to that woman of the Zhao family?" Xuanji asked with a smile, "You were able to turn from immortal grass to spirit, and she can be regarded as your mother!"
"Although I was born from heaven and earth, I was born from her, and I can indeed be regarded as my mother!" Wang Xu sighed, "She finally lived to be one hundred and ten years old and died without illness." ”
"Oh, that's good!" Xuanji nodded, "I remember that of course I passed by her house not long after I came down from the Upper Realm. At that time, due to the great consumption of breaking the boundary, the body was extremely weak, and the sickness was general, and although your family was not well-off, your mother still entertained me very warmly and with all her might......
"Yes, she's a good person! Speaking of this, Wang Xu's eyes were a little moist, "Otherwise, she would not have mourned her fiancé Zhou Gongzi after his death, and insisted on keeping the festival for him." ”
"Actually, it's because I took a fancy to her that I decided to give you to her. Avoid such a kind woman from dying alone.
"At the beginning, you expected that she would go to worship at the grave of the Zhou family's son, so you transformed me into rice and appeared near his grave. ”
"That's right. But though the rice plant you have made is grown, and the ears are full and fruitful, it is supposed to be tempting to those in the famine. Xuanji nodded and smiled, "I just didn't expect her to almost faint crying because of her excessive grief." Ignore your existence!"
So I fell into a dream and turned into her fiancé Zhou Gongzi to remind her to bring back the rice in front of the grave, and finally when she woke up, she saw that there was indeed a rice plant not far away, so she really brought it back. After eating the grains, I became pregnant soon after, and gave birth to a boy, and it was you!"
"Because the ghost gave birth to the valley, and because the valley gave birth to a child, it was named Guiguzi. ”
Wang Xu stroked his beard and smiled.
The two drank and looked back on the past. The two of them started from the time they first went to the lower realm, and they have talked about it until now, almost looking back on their lives in the human world.
After a long time, a sunset hung in the distance on the horizon.
As the sun sets, the birds return to their nests.
"It's done!"
The two raised their glasses, drank the last one, and laughed out loud.
Xuanji glanced up at the sky, and then said slowly:
"Friends come with good wine, and wolves come with shotguns!"
"It's time for us to prepare!"
……
Night falls.
The surroundings of Lin Yin Temple were shrouded in darkness, and in the distant room, the dim lights lit up one by one.
A group of people slowly came down the hill.
There are five people in this group, and they faintly exude a compelling aura.
At the forefront was a slender young man with a sword-eyed nose and a thin body, who was the same as the Gu Li who had been ordered by his master to come and retrieve the dementor bottle.
They reached the bottom of the mountain, and Gulee raised his hand to stop. He then took out a quaint vial engraved with many demon motifs. After taking the bottle out, he placed it casually flat on the broad palm of his hand.
The light of the palm flickered, and the quaint bottle spun in a circle, and the mouth of the bottle pointed straight ahead. The body of the bottle trembled slightly, and if it wasn't for the spiritual light cluster, it might have shot away.
Seeing this, his face froze, and he said slowly: "It seems that the direction is correct, another soul bottle should be on this mountain!"
Everyone nodded and moved on.
After taking two steps, a sturdy middle-aged man looked towards the top of the mountain, his eyes flashed with coldness, and he said:
"It's old, and there seems to be a temple on it!"
"Yuan Cheng, what if there is a temple, are you so many of us, are you still afraid!" A short, horse-faced man said with a smile.
Hearing this, Yuan Cheng shrugged his shoulders and did not explain.
At this time, a woman with an angry figure next to her said: "Senior Brother Liu Ming, Senior Brother Yuan said this not because he was afraid, but just kindly reminded us. After all, it's just such a big deal, so it's better to be cautious!"
The woman's face was beautiful, and her full chest rose and fell gently as she spoke.
The short horse-faced Liu Ming listened to her words to defend Yuan Cheng, jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he was angry in his heart, and he wanted to say something more.
At this time, a sick young man next to him, who was thin and seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew, said with a smile, "Senior Sister Ye Ling has a reason for this, and the master personally explained it is not trivial, everyone should be careful." ”
"Hmph, Long Xiang, you smiling tiger-"
Gu Li frowned, interrupted them, and said coldly, "What's there to fight about!
Ye Lingmei's eyes were like silk, and he chuckled: "Boss Gu Li is right, you must know that the dead puppet Lina of the master has been killed, everyone must be vigilant!"
Ye Ling casually mentioned Lina, and everyone was a little uncomfortable, and their faces showed a cautious look.
Except for Gu Li, who is the cultivation of the peak of the early stage of the transformation of gods, the rest are all cultivators of the Yuan Infant stage.
Among them, Ye Ling and Long Xiang are both at the peak of the late Yuan Infant stage, and they are not far from breaking through the God Transformation Period. And Yuan Cheng and Liu Ming have just entered the late Yuan infant stage, and they are often compared by people from the division, so the two of them are a little wrong on weekdays.
Lina's strength is close to that of the late Yuan Infant period, and with the treasures left to her by Shizun, some of the means must be even above them, but they were killed like this, so they had to cheer up.
At night, the fog on the mountain gradually thickened, and if you don't use your spiritual power, plus the night, you can't see anything from twenty or thirty meters away.
The five of them walked along the road up the mountain for a few minutes, and Gu Li suddenly stopped, and as soon as he raised his hand, the four people behind him also stopped.
"Boss, what's wrong?" The short, horse-faced Liu Ming was stunned when he saw this, and asked in a low voice.
Gu Li didn't answer, and coldly shouted into the fog in front of him: "Who is the person in front?
After Gu Li finished speaking, a long sigh came from the front - "The young man has good eyesight! I don't think that Ximen Li, that old ghost is good at cultivation, and the apprentices are all so good at teaching! I can't help but admire it!"
As he spoke, the fog in front of everyone automatically spread out to both sides, revealing the passage.
On the stone steps more than a dozen feet away from them, there were two people standing impressively. One is an old monk with gray hair in a monk's robe, and the other is a middle-aged man in green clothes with a good demeanor. It is Master Zhiyuan, the abbot of Linyin Temple, and Guiguzi Wang Xu.
"Do you know Shizun?"
When Gu Li heard this, his pupils shrank, and he suddenly asked, "Who are you?"
"Who am I? Didn't the old ghost Simon tell you?" The old monk seemed to ask with some curiosity.
Then he showed a sudden look and muttered, "No wonder! Hundreds of years ago, Beihai never met again. At that time, you juniors were not born yet!"
When the two appeared, Ye Ling and the four didn't take it to heart. They probed with their divine senses, and quickly determined that the old monk was only a cultivator in the middle of the Yuan Infant, and the man in Tsing Yi next to him was only in the late Yuan Infant. With their lineup, there's no need to worry about it.
At this time, when they saw that the old monk directly broke the name of the master, their expressions were shocked and undecided, but they didn't know what the two people in front of them were coming from.
Gu Li has always followed Ximen Li's side, so he has some understanding of some past stories.
"Beihai?" Gu Li pondered for a moment, then his whole body shook violently, and said, "Xuanjizi, are you an old man Xuanji?"
The old monk smiled and said, "You know a lot! Old monk, my Dharma name is Zhiyuan! Of course, if you call me Old Man Xuanji, I won't mind!"
Sure enough, it's him!
Gu Li gasped in his heart, as far as he knew, hundreds of years ago, Xuanjizi and Shizun fought a big battle in Beihai, and both were defeated.
The master then retreated and practiced for many years, but he has not yet recovered, and Xuanjizi has not appeared in the world since then, and he does not know what happened.
Shizun once speculated that he was dead, but he didn't expect to meet him here!
This character, who can compete with Shizun, is not dead yet, presumably Shizun will be shocked when he hears the news!
"The juniors have seen the seniors!"
Gu Li suppressed all kinds of thoughts in his heart, bent down and bowed lightly.
Xuanji nodded slightly.
His face was silent, but his heart was quite surprised, he couldn't imagine that Ximen Li, an apprentice, could still be like this after learning his identity, and this heart and courage were not comparable to ordinary people.
Gu Li straightened up, then faced Xuanji, and asked slowly: "Juniors dare to ask, may I ask if the dementor bottle is in the hands of the seniors?"
"Not bad!" Xuanji said indifferently, "It's in the hands of the old monk!"
Gu Li took a deep breath, raised his head to meet Xuanji's gaze, and said, "The soul bottle is a thing of the master's sect, I don't know if the predecessors can return the soul bottle?"
Xuanji's face was as usual, and he said, "Please go back!"
"The master's orders are here, forgive the juniors for not being able to obey them! The seniors are massive, please return the soul bottle!"
Hearing this, Xuanji smiled and remained silent.
Seeing this, Gu Li sighed in his heart.
Then, he said coldly: "If this is the case, the juniors may be offended!"
