Chapter Eighty-Seven: As Old (7,200 Words in One)

Zhao Li's cultivation level at the moment, the amount of mana has not changed, but it is pouring out from the twenty-nine law phases at the same time. The mana that erupted in an instant far exceeded the previous level, and with one move, it was magnificent, and the surrounding group of ghosts screamed, and they all collapsed.

Then they regrouped in the distance, weaker than before, and they all looked panicked and went away.

Zhao Li's eyes narrowed slightly.

This is a deliberate attempt to lead him that way.

Looking left and right, this cave has no part worth paying attention to, originally this place is the core of the old monster's arrangement, in the case, the bronze iron scroll was completely absorbed by him, and this magic circle will also dissipate, but now there is no sign of it collapsing.

I'm afraid that in the past 10,000 years, the formation has also undergone some kind of change.

Zhao Li pondered, his right hand directly summoned the Funeral Sun Gun, the dark spear made a low sound like a tiger roaring, there was a faint trace of scorching breath, the request of the Human Division is to deal with this matter thoroughly, and solve the matter that caused the people to fall, and now this can not be regarded as complete.

When the next one holds a gun, he walks forward slowly.

Just now, when he made a move, the mana was surging, and the power that erupted in an instant was definitely above the Law Phase Realm.

It has even reached the level of no leakage.

But correspondingly, the body was majestic and terrifying, far exceeding the mana of the same level, and directly went down by more than a third.

And now his mind is slowing down, and the twenty-eight Dharma phases around his body are slowly circulating, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth to supplement his cultivation, it is only the level of a few breaths, and the huge mana consumed by that blow has actually recovered.

Zhao Li followed those ghosts forward.

Stepping out of this cave and continuing forward, it no longer belonged to the scope of the magic circle arranged by the old monster back then, and continued to move forward, walking into a clearing, stepping through the fog that blocked the view, and seeing a strange place formed by the formation, which was a rare scene in his hometown.

I don't know how many years of dark green vines have grown entangled with each other, forming a wall, spreading upwards like a sword, tens, even more than a hundred meters, except for the wide gap that walked in, only there is a hole above, and a blue sky can be seen.

The light pierced through the fog above, creating a picture that resembled a surging mist of light.

And in the center of this secret place, there is a vision that seems to be a yin and yang fish, and two people step into one of the positions opposite each other, Zhao Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he instantly recognized that this slowly rotating and changing yin and yang fish is the core after the formation change, as long as it is destroyed, this secret place will be completely invalid and can no longer play a role.

"Fellow Daoist, this fellow Daoist!"

Standing there on the sunny side was a girl in green clothes, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, black hair tied behind her back like ink, holding a long sword.

Zhao Li raised his eyes and said, "Are you calling me?"

The girl nodded again and again, "Not bad." ”

"In the lower Qingyuan Miaofa Mountain disciples, I have seen Taoist friends. ”

"Brother Dao also came here for the disappearance of the people?"

Zhao Li held the funeral gun, nodded, and replied casually: "Yes, it sounds like the same for the girl?"

The girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Not bad......"

"I waited for Qingyuan Miaofa Mountain not far from Qucheng, I heard about this matter, Master asked our brothers and sisters to go down the mountain together to solve this matter, we broke in together, but unfortunately the formations on the road are too vicious, Senior Brother fell into a trick and separated from me, I came here by luck, and I met this ghost thing again......"

The girl's face was gloomy, and she regained her spirits and said:

"Brother Dao, this evil ghost is the cause of the mutation in the secret realm. ”

"He harmed the people who entered this formation, drove their lives and souls to harm people, for the sake of the people, and asked Brother Dao to help me kill this man, I Qingyuan Miaofa Mountain, inherit Brother Dao's love. ”

Zhao Li saw that the one standing on the yin and yang fish side was a tall big man, saying that it was a big man, but it was actually a ghost, with a green face and fangs, described as terrifying, and a pair of eyes with a blood-red color, ordinary people knew at a glance that it was not a good class, and nodded slowly at the moment, holding the funeral gun, and approached forward.

Just before stepping into the yin-yang fish, it suddenly stopped.

The girl seemed to be fighting with the other side, her mana was flowing, her face was pale, her sideburns were sweaty, the spells in her hands changed, and she said: "Brother Dao, please lend me a mana to help me take down this evil ghost." ”

Zhao Li didn't move, and only when the girl's face was pale, and I saw pity, and I looked at it from time to time, then said leisurely:

"Actually, I have another question, I wonder if you can answer it, girl?"

The girl bit her lip lightly and said, "Brother Dao, excuse me." ”

Zhao Li looked at her and said seriously:

"Do you think I'm a good deceit?"

The girl's beautiful face froze, and then she said aggrievedly:

"Dao, Brother Dao, what are you talking about?"

Zhao Li's funeral spear poked on the ground, and said flatly: "The formation of the intersection of yin and yang, I didn't expect to be able to really see this kind of strange array born from heaven and earth here, yin and yang rotate, and the people who enter the formation become the eyes of the formation, maintaining balance with each other, unless there is a life and death inside, it is impossible to break this formation." ”

"It's true both inside and out. ”

"But there is another way to crack this strange formation, that is, from outside the formation, replace the formation eye in the formation with other creatures, there are no other creatures in this place, you and the opponent over there are similar strengths, so you plan to replace me in the formation for you to suffer, right?"

The girl's fair face froze, and then a small dot protruded from her eyebrows.

The next moment, as if the sound of cracking brocade exploded suddenly, the girl's eyebrows exploded, and a black bone spur pierced out of it fiercely, wanting to pierce the formation and hook Zhao Li in, and the cute girl was just a skin, which was directly broken, and what appeared was a monster with inky barbs on its body.

roared in his mouth, two rows of red eyes on the top of his head, and one by one hideous bone spurs pierced towards Zhao Li.

With a crisp sound, the bone spurs were blocked by the Funeral Sun Gun, and the spear suddenly spontaneously lit up a series of talismans, and the scorching fire escaped from the scorching firelight, Zhao Li's body deviated, and his right foot stepped forward suddenly, and the vast mana around his body was swallowed, turning into majestic power, stepping on the bone spur directly under his feet, and the Funeral Sun Gun in his hand was directly stabbed down.

There was a pop sound, and a section of the monster's body was directly cut off by the spear.

Sticky blue blood spurted out and fell to the ground, corroding the ground like strong acid, emitting a pungent and unpleasant smell, the monster opened its mouth and let out a miserable scream, retreated suddenly, hid in the formation, and refused to move again, Zhao Li squinted his eyes, and had some regret:

"It's a pity that you saved three points of strength. ”

The monster didn't answer, he took out a new human skin out of nowhere, there was a thick pile, picked and chosen, took out a piece and draped it on his body, and turned into a boy who was only twelve or thirteen years old again, white and chubby, but Huanyan became pale, and his eyes were not black and white, all of them were the blood that wanted to drip out, which made people's hearts numb, and he looked at Zhao Li with great resentment.

Zhao Li held the funeral gun, felt the burning sensation coming from the gun, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

The Funeral Gun is a weapon against the primeval gods and demons.

This guy doesn't look like a god, a descendant of a demon?

At this moment, he used his mask and hat to hide his appearance, and casually shook the funeral gun, shook off the blood on it, and pushed away the yin and yang fish, as long as this formation is still here, it is inevitable that innocent people will be lured over, and he needs to completely destroy this formation and kill the monster.

The thick pile of human skins are all new, from children to teenagers and girls, and Zhao is full of murderous intentions.

walked to the other side of the yin-yang fish, and saw another person standing in the eyes of the array, or a ghost, with a green face and fangs, and his eyes were also blood-colored.

Zhao Li's palm Buddha light flowed, his eyes were stained with a trace of gold, but he never felt that there was a trace of evil qi on this hideous ghost thing, but it was pure and incomparably yin and ghostly, and there was no impurity, and he was slightly relieved in his heart.

If this is also an evil ghost, he really has a headache, and he doesn't know how to break this formation.

At this moment, it is much simpler, as long as he helps this good ghost here, defeats the monster on the opposite side, and does not even need to kill, as long as the momentum of yin and yang is out of balance, the formation will naturally break, and when the time comes, he will kill the monster with the funeral gun that restrains the gods and demons.

At the moment, his mind was slightly settled, and he spoke slowly, saying:

"This fellow Taoist ......"

The blue-faced ghost had a wooden face, didn't pay attention to him, just sat quietly on the stone in the middle of the array, not knowing what he was thinking, Zhao Li said again: "Daoist friends fall into this formation, I can help you get out of trouble and leave here." ”

The blue-faced ghost still didn't say a word.

The monster who re-approved a human skin over there sneered in his mouth, but it was also the crisp timbre of a child, but it just looked ghostly, and said: "Don't waste your efforts, he is a fool, he will not respond to anything, in the past three months, I have said a lot, and he has not said a word, like a piece of wood and stones, sitting there, refusing to move." ”

"You're trying to kill me, aren't you? But you can't break the formation, and you're not willing to leave, are you?

"Why don't you help me break the formation, I will kill this ghost, so that the formation can be broken and I can come out, and then the two of us will fight again, how about it?"

"Hero, do you have the guts to take this risk?"

It opened its mouth to bewitch Zhao Li.

Zhao Li didn't raise his eyelids, and replied lightly:

"Don't dare, cowardly, spare your life. ”

The monster snorted, rather disdainful.

Zhao Li groaned, looked at the blue-faced ghost in front of him, his mind turned, his voice was flat, and he said:

"You're here, but what grievances do you have? ”

The green-faced and fanged ghost still didn't respond, and just as Zhao Li was thinking of other methods, its pupils turned slightly, still with a wooden face, its mouth open, and its voice was hoarse like dry fire smoke, and said, "Wait...... Person. ”

Zhao Xingzhong moved, and praised the jack-of-all-trades that opened the plot in these countless stories.

His tone became more and more calm, and he said, "Who are you waiting for?"

The blue-faced ghost grimaced, shook his head slowly, and said, "I don't know ......"

I don't know?

Zhao Li frowned slightly, the monster over there let out a sneer, recuperating from his injuries, the wound pierced by the Funeral Sun Gun actually began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, the blood rolled, and dense granulations grew, looking disgusting.

Zhao Li retracted his gaze, thought of something, and said slowly: "Then do you know who you are?"

The blue-faced ghost looked sluggish and repeated to himself: "Who am I......"

Then he shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Zhao Li said again: "How long have you been waiting here?"

“...... I do not know. ”

"And what are you doing here?"

The blue-faced ghost's eyes became clear and focused, and he said:

"I'm waiting for someone, he's going to come. ”

Such a clueless appearance made Zhao Li feel a little headache, groaned, and said, "Then do you have any agreed tokens?" can identify you or that person's identity." ”

This sentence seemed to touch the blue-faced ghost, and he was silent for a long time, and said, "Yes, the knife." ”

Slowly raised his hand, put it in his arms, carefully took out a strip of cloth, after unfolding, there was a knife inside, the clothes on his body were tattered, very embarrassed, but this short knife was very well protected, antique, although it was not a special treasure, but it was obviously loved for a long time.

He was silent for a while, slowly stroked the knife, and said hoarsely: "The knife ......"

Zhao Li's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at this knife, guessing that this short knife should be a pair, and thought in his heart, if he could find the person who was waiting for this ghost, or if he could make the ghost spirit regain his senses for a short time, he would still be able to restrain the monster in this state and regain his senses, so he would naturally be able to suppress it directly and break this formation.

Whether it is the task of the Human Division, or the elimination of evil, this is a must.

At the moment, try to calm your tone as much as possible, and say slowly:

"Can you show me?"

"I can use the Celestial Technique to help you find the person you're waiting for. ”

I don't know if Zhao Li behaved very reliably, or if this ghost thing hadn't communicated with others for a long time, he was silent for a long time, and slowly stretched out his hand, with a lot of dirt on his palm, sharp nails, holding the dagger, and stretching out little by little The formation shrouded.

The palm of his hand is spread out, and the knife is held on it.

Zhao Li bowed slightly, stretched out his hand and took the knife, it was a mortal knife, and it was definitely an antiquity, if it wasn't for the ghost thing, I am afraid it would have been devoured long ago, rusty and scattered, Zhao Li's consciousness rose to the white space, with the help of the perception of the picture scroll and the personality of his own soul, he performed the Heavenly Skill Hexagram Technique.

Beside him, pure white talisman seals emerged.

The short knife trembled, and was emerged by the white light, spinning in the air, and then pointed in a direction, hissing non-stop, as if it was about to break through the air, Zhao moved slightly, and the soul absorbed the white mist, changed the appearance under the mask, and then still wore the mask, floating next to the body, the strange color flashed under the monster's eyes, Zhao Li smiled at the blue-faced ghost, and said:

"Wait here, and I'll go after him. ”

With a flick of the robe, the short knife hummed, was wrapped in white light, and broke through the air.

Zhao Li contained the mixed yuan sword in his own wisp of life, the long sword appeared, turned into a light wrapped in him, and also chased away, leaving this formation in a blink of an eye, the human skin monster looked at Zhao Li's body, a different color appeared under his eyes, and his fingers suddenly clicked and cracked, and a black bone spur flew out from Bai Shengsheng's round fingers, shooting towards Zhao Li like an arrow.

There was a crisp sound, and the bone spurs turned into green smoke and spread out.

Zhao Li's little consciousness was focused on the flesh on the white mist, the funeral gun in his hand was leaning to the ground, and he smiled leisurely with his side eyes:

"Can't you wait, little one?"

The monster's vicious expression changed, and it almost screamed in horror.

Wasn't his soul out of his body just now?! How could he still control his physical body?!

That's not a soul out of the body, so what else can it be?

The art of incarnation outside the body?

The monster thought of the cultivation required by the incarnation technique outside the body, and its scalp tingled.

The funeral gun in Zhao Li's hand was in his hand, stabbing out lightly, fierce and domineering, the scorching blood was majestic, and the tyrannical meaning contained in it almost made the monster's body stiff, and he didn't dare to move at all, and he felt like he was almost killed in his heart, and the gun dispersed, but he saw that a series of criss-crossing chessboards appeared on the ground.

Zhao Li held a gun at will, invited him leisurely, and said with a smile:

"The waiting time is also boring, how about the next game of chess?"

The monster should not, and began to feel that the person in front of him was a little unpredictable.

Zhao Li smiled freely, with a circle on behalf of white, × on behalf of black chess, go to play by himself, first a son, a little silent for a moment, then another son, the monster is dressed in human skin, walking in the world, recognizing the chess road, but seeing the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard, the fight is fierce, one is dangerous, the other is calm.

They are all rare good chess, and they have never been seen before, so they are obviously not played randomly.

Although he saw Zhao Li groaning at the moment, he didn't dare to act rashly.

..................

Over there, Zhao Li used the white picture scroll to restore the eternal fragments of the chess game in his memory.

Pretending to be there, shocking the monster, here Zhao Li is single-minded, but most of his consciousness has flown out with the short knife, he used a heavenly hexagram in the memory of the old monster, which can be regarded as the pursuit of the fate contained in the artifact to find people, the heavier the fate, the better the effect, but it is so good that it is rare even in the memory of the old monster.

Wait for someone, who are you waiting for?

Could it be that the person he was waiting for is still alive?

Zhao Lizhong's thoughts fluctuated, but he saw that the light on the short knife dissipated, and began to fall down, below was a town of the human race, protected by a magic circle, Zhao Li rushed forward and grabbed the short knife, at this moment it was the body of the life soul, with the help of a wisp of white mist that had been incorporated into the life soul before, the black dress on the body turned into a white robe, and his face also changed to be handsome and dusty.

Man's shoes are dusty, but he looks like a monk who has attained the Tao.

When it fell, he saw that the direction pointed by the short knife was a small courtyard, and there were not many guests, so they all smiled happily, saying congratulations, and then listened carefully, but it was the owner of the house who wanted to give birth to a child, and there were relatives and friends, as well as the stable woman from the surrounding town.

Zhao Li looked at his current outfit, and restrained his evil spirit, only then flicked his sleeve robe, and slowly stepped forward, there was an old woman over there to greet the guests, and when she saw this sudden Taoist with an extraordinary bearing, she hurriedly stepped forward.

Zhao Li saluted, his voice was gentle, and he said with a smile: "Old man." ”

"The poor road passed through your land, and came to ask for a bowl of water to drink, but I don't know if it is convenient or inconvenient. ”

Cultivation is a common practice in the world, but everyone who knows how to practice is looking forward to seeing a person who has Taoism, hoping that his younger generation can be looked at, the old woman hurriedly invited Zhao Li to enter, and said with a smile: "Convenient and convenient, what's inconvenient about this?"

Zhao Li took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I don't know who gave birth today? Is it the old man's granddaughter-in-law?"

The old woman smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed, and said: "That's not it, it's been three years since I got married, and I finally have a child, I'm afraid of the jokes of the Taoist, I'm looking forward to holding my grandson early, it's my granddaughter, my granddaughter is better, quiet, and cute, and men are always naughty." ”

Zhao Li smiled, chatted casually for a few more words, and then pretended to be careless, turned to the topic, and said:

"Poor Dao actually wanted to ask the old man about something. ”

"Chief, please. ”

Zhao Li casually took out the short knife, put it on the table, pushed it towards the old man, and said in a gentle voice: "I don't know, does the old man know about this knife?" The old woman was stunned, raised her hand to pick up the knife, looked at it for a long time, looked at Zhao Li with a solemn face, and said, "...... Dao Chief, where did you get this knife?"

Zhao Li's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled:

"For an old man. ”

"The Old Man ......"

The old man muttered to himself, got up suddenly, asked Zhao Li to wait a while, and then hurried back to the back hall, and came back after a while, holding a box with obvious years in his arms, carefully opened the lock on it, looked at it for a while, sighed, turned this thing around, pushed it towards Zhao Li, and said:

"Daoist, please take a look. ”

Zhao Li raised his eyes and saw that the box was divided into three layers, and the top one, wrapped in red satin, was exactly the same knife as the short knife that Zhao Li took out, but if you looked closely, there was a slight difference, it was a pair of forged out.

Zhao moved slightly and said, "This is ......"

The old woman sighed, stroked the knife, and said, "This is left by my ancestors, passed down from generation to generation to my grandfather, and my grandfather passed it on to me, I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to see another knife in this life." ”

Zhao Li's voice was calm, and he said with a smile: "Poor Dao didn't expect that there would be a second one." ”

"What is the origin of this knife?"

The old woman sat down and said with a smile: "There is a history, it can be regarded as a very big origin, there are some stupid people over the years, this knife has been almost 700 years...... Until now, it has to be wiped with oil every day to protect this knife edge. ”

700 years ......

Zhao was stunned, listened to the old woman stroking the knife, and said:

"If the Taoist chief doesn't dislike the old woman's talk, he can tell this old-fashioned story. ”

Zhao Li smiled and said, "Please." ”

The old woman sighed:

"The thing is that it was seven hundred years ago, and it stands to reason that the history at that time cannot be handed down, but coincidentally, it happened to be the only big beast tide in thousands of years, and this knife was related to the beast tide, so the matter was preserved. ”

"At that time, the ancestor of my family was the seventh in the clan, and there was a brother of the opposite sex, who was like siblings, and they grew up together and traveled together. However, in the year of the beast tide, they returned to their hometown, because of something, my ancestors took a step, and the two agreed to meet at the place where they met. ”

"When the appointed time came, the ancestor wanted to leave, but he was stumped by the affairs of the clan, so he was an hour late. ”

At this hour, the tide of beasts broke out, and he couldn't go. ”

"But the ancestor of my family, who is the brother of my ancestor, went to the agreed place, and people speculated that after he went, he encountered the outbreak of the beast tide, and he was worried that the ancestor was also on the road and was sniped by the beast tide, so he did not hide directly in the cave in the belly of the mountain, but rushed in the direction of my house, hoping to meet my ancestor. ”

In the end, he was never found, and he died on the way. ”

"After the news of this happened, my ancestor cried for three days and three days, and he was seriously ill. ”

"The monk who opened the Dharma Phase, he didn't survive for half a hundred, he died of a serious illness, and when he died, he still held this knife, and he burst into tears, saying that he had broken the contract, and if he went together, at least he would have a chance or escape, instead of letting his brother worry about him and fall into the beast tide and die. ”

The old man finished this not long story, and said with a smile: "This story and the knife have been passed down, the old woman lived for a short time, and when she saw her grandson or granddaughter, she also wanted to pass on the knife and the story, although the two ancestors were laughed at and said that they were stupid, stupid is stupid, this is also very good......"

Zhao Li thought of that ghost and a strange place beyond the scope of the original formation, and said with emotion:

"One is trustworthy, the other is affectionate, naturally it is very good. ”

The old woman laughed when she heard this, Zhao Li groaned, and still spoke: "There is a reluctant invitation in the next place, I want to buy this short knife for use, I don't know if it is possible? Or, the old man can also make a price and try his best to meet it." ”

The old woman looked at Zhao Li, shook her head with a smile, and said:

"I know that the Taoist is capable, and if it is required by other requirements, it is naturally possible. ”

"But this is the only thing, and the old body doesn't plan to sell it. ”

Zhao Li was a little regretful and said, "I see, it's ......."

At this moment, several shouts suddenly erupted in the room, saying, "Raw, born!"

But I didn't hear the child's cry, and then there was a Wen Po who exclaimed, saying:

"Oh, it's broken, the child is suffocating his head, he can't cry, I'm afraid it's a lost soul......"

The old woman next to her body shook violently, her face was pale, Zhao Li's eyes were raised, and when she saw that the child over there had a faint tendency to break free from her body, her heart moved, she got up, and said with a slight smile: "This tea is very good, thank you old man." ”

"That's a return gift. ”

He raised his hand and pressed it against the withered plum tree next to him.

In the soul, the innate five elements of the air turned, and finally with the help of the endless wood genus in the five elements, it showed a particularly powerful ability to influence the soul of life, and the vitality overflowed, and the weak soul of the fetus was gently sent into the body by this wood genus.

A loud cry rang out.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, but the nervous feeling was still there, and suddenly felt that the palm of his hand was loose, and the short knife had disappeared, and the Taoist next to him smiled, bowed, flicked his sleeves, and disappeared, and the voice with a smile dispersed: "But this knife, I still have to borrow him for the next time, and then I will return it ......."

The old woman froze, and saw that the cold plum that the person next to her had raised her hand to press was actually blooming in autumn.

Large swaths of plum blossoms fall, vibrant, and a light fragrance fills the entire courtyard.

Zhao Li's soul appeared on the mountain in the distance, looking at the panicked courtyard.

With a flick of the hand, the airflow of the genus Shengsheng is transformed into a blue bird, the blue bird flutters its wings and flies into the courtyard of the people, which is extremely strange, releasing the breath of life and making the fetus more and more healthy.

"Blue Bird Sends the Wind to the ......"

Zhao Li muttered to himself, smiled and looked at the two pairs of short knives in his hands.

This is what the blue-faced ghost has in his heart, and it's time to send it back......

The figure disappeared directly, and left with two short knives.

PS: Actually, this agreed story is a part of our mythology that has changed, and it was originally drowned by the tide.

emmmm, whose identity should be guessable.
