Chapter 112 - The Peak Temple

The people on the stone wall were tortured by the cold wind, and after a lot of hard work, exhausted, they finally saw the top of the mountain, and suddenly the hope in everyone's hearts emerged, so they struggled to climb, tried their last bit of strength, and finally climbed to the top of the mountain.

This time he was really tired enough, Long Xiang was out of breath, and as soon as he got to the top of the mountain, he simply sat on the ground to rest.

"Xiangtian, this time thanks to you again. Liu Bei sat on the grass next to Long Xiangtian and said to Long Xiangtian.

"It's okay, that's what I should, if I can't help with anything, then I'll be embarrassed. Long Xiangtian said with a smile.

On the grassy ground, everyone sat on the spot, rested to regain their strength, and began to chat.

Cao Cao smiled at Long Xiangtian and asked, "Brother Xiangtian, didn't you leave those long nails on the stone wall to give the later people a chance to get better, why don't you let us pull them out?"

Long Xiangtian said: "Since they want to come here to hunt for treasure, then they will come here anyway, why don't you send this favor to them, after all, we will use it later, right?"

Guan Yu said: "I think this road to the top of the mountain, what tests us is the perseverance in the pursuit of treasures, and the courage to defy difficulties and obstacles.

Liu Bei said with a smile: " I don't agree with what the second brother said, I think that this road to climb the mountain, not only tests our perseverance and courage, but also tests our wisdom, if you don't climb up with the help of other tools, so a long distance, you will be exhausted when you climb halfway, and then if you are not careful, it will be easy to fall, this kind of difficulty and inflexibility I think is against the original intention of the tester, not to mention that we just borrowed a little tool to climb, how can it be said to be a trick?"

"Wait, who is the tester you are talking about, why do I get more and more confused the more I hear it?" Long Xiangtian hurriedly asked.

Cao Cao explained: " The so-called tester is just a figure we guess, it can also be said that it is the person who arranges this Penglai Immortal Island, and many hidden treasures on Penglai Immortal Island attract many foundation-building monks from all over the world to come to the island to seize the treasure, and this person who hides the treasure here, let's call him the tester, we guess that the purpose of this tester is to arrange a test one after another, so that the real extraordinary people can get the treasures of the divine weapons through training, so each test arranged by the tester is different, and the things to be tested are also different。 ”

Long Xiangtian thought to himself: Yes! When he first entered Penglai Immortal Island, the forest he passed through was so gloomy and terrifying! That should be the first test, the test is whether we can overcome fear, and the open space behind the forest is the second test, testing our vision of things, don't be blinded by a little profit, as for the cliff is the third test, the test should be in the face of difficulties in the heart of the determination and idea to solve the difficulties, do not want to retreat when encountering difficulties, just want to give up, as long as you use your brains to think, the seemingly insurmountable ravine is also a way to pass, and just now this road to the top of the mountain, is the fourth test, the test is our perseverance and courage to climb to the top, oh, no, it should be like Brother Bei said, and when facing difficulties, we must be witty, do not face difficulties, but use ingenious methods to solve it!

Long Xiangtian couldn't help but ask: "Could it be that this is the meaning of the existence of Penglai Immortal Island? These tests are arranged just to let us understand such a truth in order to get the treasure of the divine weapon?"

"No, you don't need to understand, what you do along the way can already reflect whether you are conscious or not, I think, the purpose of the tester is to sum up this sentence - to make the strong stronger, and the weak weaker. Liu Bei said.

Long Xiangtian thought of those who died tragically, some died in the dangers of the island, and some died at the hands of others, Long Xiangtian saw with his own eyes that hundreds of people fought to the death for the golden spear that was born, on the flying car, in the warship, maybe you can also gently shake the folding fan, drink and drink tea, like a humble gentleman, and here, but can not withstand the temptation, fighting each other for the sake of the gods, the ugly side of human nature is exposed at a glance, those people have been abandoned by the so-called testers unconsciously, reduced to the stepping stone of the strong, Long Xiangtian said with feeling: "Why do I think it's cruel to do this?"

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs. God treats everyone equally, no one is born to be favored by God, merit and fame and fortune are obtained through their own efforts, and no prince and general is born noble, so in order to achieve the goal in his heart, he must first become a strong man, and in order to become a strong man, some things need to be abandoned. Cao Cao said meaningfully.

"Is there something that needs to be discarded?" asked Long Xiangtian puzzled

"It's the heart that pities the weak!" Cao Cao said.

When Long Xiangtian heard this, his body and mind couldn't help but be shocked, and he thought: Is my heart really too weak? Why do I sympathize with those people? Obviously, they are not related to each other, and they are also self-inflicted, but why do I always feel a little reluctant in my heart? Could it be that this has something to do with my weakness on earth? Because of my weakness and incompetence, I have never had a girlfriend, and I even worried about not being able to find a job, and I spent twenty years on the earth in a daze, and now, it is clear that I am now a child of immortals, and I have learned so many things, but why can't I compare to Guan Yu and Zhao Yun? I originally thought that if I became an immortal disciple, I would be able to go to heaven and earth all at once, and I could do anything, but I didn't expect that the reality was that I still needed to cultivate step by step, and become stronger little by little, along the way, if I hadn't met Brother Bei and them, I guess where I would be wandering around without achieving anything!

Liu Bei said disapprovingly: "Brother Cao said too much! Everyone has a process of turning from weak to strong, how can it be said that the weak are not worthy of sympathy? Xiangtian is just kind-hearted, and he feels some sympathy for the outcome of those people who have achieved nothing, besides, having a heart of pity for the weak will make him weak and unable to become a strong person? I think that if we abandon that heart of pity, what if such a person can have the world in my heart?"

This is just Cao's personal perception, but everyone has their own aspirations, and we can't force everyone to think the same as Cao. Cao Cao said.

Worried that Cao Cao and Liu Bei would quarrel if they continued to talk about it, Long Xiangtian hurriedly asked, "Okay, everyone, we have rested enough, why don't we go and see if there is an entrance to the treasure in front?"

This proposal was unanimously agreed by everyone, and everyone was already haunted by the treasure of the divine weapon, and they didn't want to stay for long, so they got up and headed for the center of the mountaintop.

There is no peak on the top of the mountain, as if the peak was cut off by a sword, and it has become the appearance of this flat top, the top of the mountain is surrounded by very steep stone walls, and there is little vegetation on the top of the mountain, and there are many rocks on the top, and everyone found a temple built of stone in the center of the peak.

"There's a stone temple in front, let's go in and have a look!" Liu Bei said to everyone.

Everyone approached the stone temple and came to the temple, only to see that there was nothing else in it, but there was a large stone statue on the temple that was already dilapidated, because the stone statue had been broken from the neck, and the head of the stone statue was missing, so everyone did not know which immortal temple this stone temple was.

"I don't know which immortal is enshrined here, could it be that this person is the so-called tester?" Liu Bei said to himself.

At this time, Cao Cao found the clues on the stone statue, and he hurriedly said to everyone: "Look, is the right half of the section of the fracture at the neck of the stone statue too flat, not like a natural fracture, but like someone cut it with a sword." ”

"Brother Cao means that this is a sword mark?" Liu Bei said suspiciously: "Who is so disrespectful and dares to do something to the immortal statue, could it be that the predecessors did it?"

At this time, Zhang Fei, who had already gone around to the back of the stone statue to observe, suddenly said excitedly to everyone: "Come and see, everyone, there are words behind the stone statue!"

Everyone hurriedly went over to take a look, and sure enough, they found some words engraved on the stone statue, but due to the age, some of the words were no longer recognizable, and they could only roughly recognize such a paragraph.

"Hate the world...... It's hard to keep my name...... Finally enlightened...... Passing away".

Just when everyone guessed who the person who carved this sentence was, Long Xiangtian suddenly subconsciously said: "Demon heroes often hate the sky!"

"Demon Hero often hates the sky?" Cao Cao thought about who this person Long Xiangtian said, and after understanding, Cao Cao asked Long Xiangtian: "Why does Brother Xiangtian think that this word is left by Demon Hero Chang Hate Heaven?"

"Forehead ......"

Long Xiangtian was speechless for a while, because he didn't know why he thought that this word was left by the demon man, and thought: I probably think that there is a hate word in the word!

After Long Xiangtian got the Hate Sky Sword, he began to be particularly sensitive to the word "hate".

Seeing that Long Xiangtian didn't answer, Cao Cao continued: "The Demon Man often hates the sky, that is the ancient power, about his deeds, the world knows very little, Brother Xiangtian actually knows the number one character of the Demon Hero, it really surprises me!"

Long Xiangtian didn't know whether to tell everyone whether he had the Demon Hero's Hatred Sword, after all, this sword is based on hatred, and if he is not careful, the sword wielder will be swallowed by hatred and become a tool that only knows how to kill, so Long Xiangtian didn't even tell Liu Guanzhang about them, just for fear that they would worry, and Guan Cao Cao's tone seemed to know the Demon Hero, and he didn't know how much he knew about the Demon Hero, and what kind of person he thought he was.

Liu Bei noticed that Long Xiangtian's expression was different, so he changed the topic and said: "Hey, why do you want to do so much! We are here to hunt for treasures, why bother with this thing!"

"That's right, let's look for the entrance or something! after all, we're not the only ones looking for treasure. Cao Cao said.

So a group of nine people began to look for the entrance to the treasure in the temple, and everyone touched left and right, but found nothing, and finally everyone turned their eyes back to the large stone statue.

Cao Cao looked at the stone statue carefully, and suddenly asked everyone, "Have you noticed that this stone statue seems to be a little out of place?"

After Cao Cao said this, Liu Bei also discovered this, so he said: "Indeed, the position of the stone statue is not quite correct, and it should be a little to the right to be regarded as facing the temple gate." ”

"What's wrong with the stone statue, isn't it just not well placed!" Zhang Fei said nonchalantly.

Zhang Fei said, he started to push the stone statue, wanted to put the stone statue right, but found that the stone statue was very easy to push, and it could continue to push, Zhang Fei felt so strange, so he continued to push the stone statue, only to hear a boom, the stone statue suddenly released a bright light, everyone was unexpected, subconsciously covering their eyes at the same time, at that moment, everyone felt the change of space.

Long Xiangtian couldn't help but think: What's going on? Is it a trap or a ......
