Chapter 119: You're Pretty Good
Remember [2016] in a second or type in the phone: ap. Please attach: [Title + Author]
From the first time the old man guarding the tomb appeared, Tang Ru was very polite to him.
This politeness is not out of respect for strength, but purely because the other party is too old.
Tang Ru is the head of Xuzhou Mansion, although he has only been to this cemetery once before tonight, and he has never cared about who is buried here on weekdays, but he knows this tomb keeper.
Even if it's just a few words that are recorded in the dossier and some hearsay.
No one knows what Uncle Ho's name is.
No one knows how many years Uncle Ho stayed in the cemetery.
But at least one thing is certain, when Tang Ru's grandfather was still alive, this Uncle He was the grave keeper.
The longevity of a cultivator is not short, so if you deduce from the age of Tang Ru's grandfather, He Bo is at least two hundred years old.
It's just that before tonight, Tang Ru never knew that He Bo was also a cultivator.
Or to be more precise, until this moment, he still hadn't been able to feel the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power from the other party's body.
What does this mean?
There are only two possibilities.
Either He Bo is good at some kind of secret method of concealing aura.
Or, Uncle He's strength may be far above Tang Ru!
There is such a saying in the cultivation world, cultivating the Tao is cultivating the year.
In other words, in many cases, the longer a person lives, the more unfathomable his cultivation may become.
No matter how low your talent is, if your life is long enough to live for a thousand years, then the realm will naturally not be low.
No matter how far the road is, as long as you keep walking, there will always be a day when you come to the end.
It's probably the stupidest way to go, but no one can ignore the power of time.
This is also one of the six major schools, the founding purpose of Wanshou Pavilion.
Of course, in many cases, when a cultivator's longevity is at the end of his life, along with the decay of qi and blood, and the blockage of the sea of qi, there will also be a phenomenon of cultivation falling, which is also common sense.
Tang Ru never thought that when he visited the cemetery tonight, he would find such a Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger.
He didn't expect that the other party had been hiding under his nose for so many years.
If it weren't for Rosen's whim, he wanted Tang Ru to send him on this trip, I'm afraid Tang Ru would continue to be blinded!
From a certain point of view, Tang Ru found that He Bo's identity was suspicious, which was a very dangerous thing.
But it seems that judging from Uncle He's attitude, the other party has no intention of being an enemy of Tang Ru.
So Tang Ru called the other party "senior".
This is the quest for goodness.
And when Rosen on the side heard the words "Qiuming Temple", his eyelids jumped slightly.
A little off.
Regarding the origin of Qiuming Temple, Rosen is not very clear, but he mentioned it by the way when Tang Wan'er introduced him to Chunqiu.
Therefore, Luo Sen only knows that this Qiuming Temple is a cultivation force that has suddenly risen in recent years, rooted in the Western Regions, and can be regarded as inheriting the incense of Buddhism.
Even so, Rosen felt that Tang Ru's words were a bit wrong.
First, it's a matter of time.
As I said before, this tomb keeper He Bo is at least two hundred years old, but Qiuming Temple is an emerging force that has only suddenly emerged in the past ten years, how can He Bo be a person from Qiuming Temple?
In addition, that Qiuming Temple is a great sect of Buddhism, but Luo Sen knows how the root of his qi sea came from.
Can this thing be a Buddhist thing?
I know it's even if I think about it with my toes!
However, He Bo did not refute Tang Ru's words, but just asked with a smile: "Where did you see it?"
Tang Ru raised his hand and lightly touched the tombstone, and said: "If it was just an ordinary formation, maybe I would mistakenly think that the predecessor was from Hanxiao Palace, although Hanxiao Palace accepted more female apprentices, it was not without a precedent for recruiting male disciples, but I knew that the predecessor of Qiuming Temple in the Western Regions was the famous Great Bright Temple six hundred years ago, and just now the predecessor said that this formation is called the Great Bright Array." ”
Hearing this, Uncle He's face couldn't help but show a hint of embarrassment, and sighed: "I didn't expect that after a thousand years, there are still people who remember the Great Light Temple." ”
As soon as these words came out, Uncle He acquiesced in his identity.
But Tang Ru was suspicious: "Since the predecessors mentioned the four major guards of the Heavenly Demon Sect just now, it is ...... this cemetery."
He Bo nodded: "You guessed right. The Heavenly Demon Sect has been destroyed for hundreds of years, and the world has long forgotten its monstrous might, and the roe deer owl, as one of the four major town guards, even if it is just a bone, how can it be buried in an ordinary cemetery? What's more, what is suppressed here is the complete body of the roe deer owl, and the duty of our tomb keepers is to wait for the day when its spirit is worn out. ”
Regarding the Heavenly Demon Sect, let alone Lawson, even Tang Ru didn't know much, except for such a name, he only knew that this was the Great Demon Dao Sect that once dominated the rivers and lakes, and it was a shame for the righteous path for thousands of years.
So from another point of view, it is not that Tang Confucianism is shallow in learning, but because the existence of the Heavenly Demon Sect has been deliberately erased from the history books.
Now hearing Uncle He say this, Tang Ru couldn't help but show respect.
"It turns out that the predecessors have such a heavy responsibility, and everything they do is the common people in the world, but Tang Mou spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain before. ”
He Bo waved his hand and seemingly casually raised the lantern in his hand up three feet, just blocking Tang Ru's gaze.
Illuminated Rosen's face.
The light of the lantern was pale yellow, with a shallow warmth, but when it fell on Rosen's face, it made him feel a bone-chilling cold!
The next moment, Rosen felt as if his body was completely out of control, he wanted to reach out to pull the corner of Tang Ru's clothes, but he couldn't even lift a finger, he wanted to open his mouth to exclaim, but found that he couldn't make a sound at all.
All that was left in front of his eyes was that pale yellow halo that filled the entire world.
Fortunately, this time the situation was different from when Rosen opened his breath or sat and asked, and he clearly felt the passage of time.
After only five seconds, the world before Rosen's eyes returned to clarity.
It's just that at this time, he is no longer in the cemetery, but appears in a boxy room.
There are no doors, windows, tables or chairs, and there is a black streamer flowing all around, making the whole picture look like an ink painting.
In the middle of the room lay a skeleton, not human, but more like some kind of alien beast.
The two broken horns on the top of the head are about to be weathered, the potholes are mottled, and the human-like skull sticks out of three pairs of sharp teeth, even after the baptism of the years, it still looks sharp, the body is like a cow and sheep animal, a little big, but the most numb scalp is the four sharp claws of this corpse.
It looks exactly like a human hand!
Lawson didn't know what it was, and he didn't know how he got here, and he was a little overwhelmed for a moment.
At this moment, He Bo appeared in front of him out of thin air.
I don't know if it's Lawson's delusion, he always feels that the He Bo in front of him seems to be younger than before, and he doesn't carry a lantern in his hand, but puts his hands behind him.
Until this time, where did Rosen not know that all this was done by this grave keeper?
He subconsciously wanted to stimulate the aura in the sea of qi, but found that as before, he couldn't stimulate a trace of spiritual power, and the entire sea of qi was like a dead sea, unable to set off the slightest wave!
So Lawson put his hand on his waist.
The next moment, Rosen took out his pistol without hesitation and shot wildly at He Bo in front of him!
At such a close distance, and with a sneak attack, Lawson didn't think he would miss.
And so it is.
It's just that what Rosen never expected was that the bullet that he shot out actually passed through He Bo's body, and without even a drop of blood splashing out, it hit the stone wall in the distance.
This time, Rosen was completely stunned.
Is this Uncle a human or a ghost?
"Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, friendliness, and retreat from evil!"
Rosen silently recited the twenty-four-character mantra in his heart, hoping to suppress all demons and monsters.
But he never thought that in the end, what he got in exchange was just a faint smile from Uncle He.
"You're good. ”
Rosen looked at the ugly old man with great vigilance, ready to let the working group forcibly wake him up, but he did not answer the other party's compliment.
So He Bo continued: "I have been waiting for you here for dozens of days, but I didn't expect that you didn't show up until today, and it brought a big trouble. ”
Hearing this, Rosen immediately narrowed his eyes: "Is it the sea of qi that you helped me open?"
This is the biggest doubt in Lawson's heart, and it is also the ultimate goal of his trip, anyway, there is no Tang Ru at this time, he asked directly in a very shameful manner.
I didn't think about it, but Uncle He shook his head slightly: "It's not me who chose you, but the Holy Envoy who chose you, although I don't know what the cause and effect is, but looking at it today, you are indeed not an ordinary man." ”
Lawson didn't understand a word at all, and he didn't need to understand it, at least now he understood something.
His own entry into the Tao is indeed inseparable from this ugly old man!
"Then what do you want to do when you bring me here now?
He Bo smiled: "You are very special, from now on, my mission is completely over, but before leaving, I still want to ask you a word." ”
Lawson secretly took a step back, put the gun in his hand back into his waist, crossed his hands in front of him, and said, "What words?"
He Bo didn't care about Rosen's small actions at all, because he thought that no matter what the other party did, it was just in vain.
So the next moment, Uncle He grinned at his broken teeth and said with a smile, "Are you willing to join my Heavenly Saint Sect?"
As the words fell, Rosen suddenly stretched his arms forward, and a bright firelight was like the scorching sun outside the sky, pulling a straight red line on He Bo's slightly stunned face.
"Skyburning!"
In an instant, the black lines in the air twisted wildly, and Uncle He's gray-white eyes shone brightly, and a terrible scream exploded in Rosen's ears.
It's like hell.
