Chapter Seventy-One: Eight Formations of Grandchildren and Immortals, Ghosts and Immortals Placed in the Four Desolations
"Alas, it's not complete, it's just half of the fragments, I forgot who sent it to me when I was in Shaolin, and the book was about to break. At the mention of this, Li Yunluo also felt very helpless.
"My good man, hurry up, show me your map" Old Man Wang was still in the mood to eat at this time, and stood up eagerly and walked around Li Yunluo's side, looking anxious like a child.
"Look, that's it, I said Grandpa Wang, these eight formations have been lost for many years, but you are not so precious, right?" While handing the clumsy and broken "Wuhou Secret Technique" to Wang Benchu's hand, Li Yunluo asked with some puzzlement.
"Oh, you don't understand, all kinds of formations are actually connected, and they are nothing more than the number of gossip and eight gates, but the most powerful thing about these eight formations is that they trap the living with dead things, which is very different from ordinary military formations. With the words, Old Man Wang reached out and took the broken book.
"Wuhou, it seems that it was summed up by later generations. As soon as he took it in his hand, Old Man Wang's brows were furrowed, and then he carefully studied it page by page, "My God, things like wooden oxen and flowing horses, eight array diagrams, trebuchetsets, and Zhuge crossbows really exist."
Seeing Wang Benchu's surprised look, Li Yunluo was awe-inspiring, he had been familiar with "Three Kingdoms" since he was a child, and then went to check the "Three Kingdoms" and other Later Han history books due to his interest, but he reluctantly found that many novels were not true, so he did not attach great importance to these legends and wild histories.
But at this time, seeing the surprised look of the old man Wang, he suddenly realized a problem, the story is also passed down by people's mouth, and the main history books are also written by people.
If the fictional story in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is true, Li Yunluo's first reaction is not the unpredictable Zhuge Wuhou, nor the righteous and thin martial saint Guan Yu, but another character who does not appear at all in the TV series - Zuo Ci.
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" itself is a dynasty book of historical romance, not a ghost book such as "Journey to the West" and "Fengshen", in this case, there is no need to conceive a powerful immortal, so does this mean that in that era, it is not uncommon for these immortal cultivators to appear in the world?
It wasn't until a few people had dinner that Old Man Wang reluctantly put down the book, and then looked at Li Yunluo with extremely strange eyes: "Boy, can you understand all these eight array diagrams?"
"Uh~" This sentence really stopped Li Yunluo, to be honest, even if it is this residual score, Li Yunluo has eighty percent of it that he can't understand, you can imagine a rookie who has to go to see the "Simplified General Explanation of the Book of Changes", how can he understand the eight array diagram that has used the principle of gossip to the extreme?
"Oh, yes, okay, the meal is over, let's go out together, I want to see what kind of formation your kid has set up. Seeing Li Yunluo's embarrassment, Old Man Wang shook his head and simply went into battle by himself.
"What kind of thing is this? Tyrannical Destruction of Heavenly Things, Violent Destruction of Heavenly Things" After only walking in Li Yunluo's formation for three or four minutes, Old Man Wang looked up to the sky with a long sigh of despair on his face.
"Eh, Grandpa Wang, it's not that miserable, right?" Li Yunluo looked at the depressed old man Wang Benchu embarrassedly, and asked cautiously.
"Isn't it that miserable? You didn't even put the most basic gossip position right, who told you that next to 'Qiansanlian' is 'Kanzhongman'?" Old Man Wang pointed to the small trees and boulders scattered all over the ground with a look of disdain.
"Isn't that gossip 'Qiankan Gong Zhen Xun Likundu', what's wrong?" Li Yunluo also said a little unconvinced.
"Oh, my child, you have to follow the map, look at you, the Gen hexagram cloud hanging array that should be in the northeast was directly put in the ground position of the southwest kun hexagram by you in this order, you have mountains and rivers, alas" At this moment, the old man Wang looked at Li Yunluo who was still in front of him with a depressed face.
"The Bird Soaring Array in the south was replaced by you with the Sky Covering Array, and in the evening, the red sun fell westward, where did this shadow go?"
"The Wind Raising Array and the Tiger Wing Array are adjacent, but the entire position is reversed, and this can't be connected to the Cloud Hanging Array next to it, don't you notice a gap here?"
"Oops, it's not right here, either"
Old man Wang walked in this formation, while pointing at the remnants with his hand, every time he pointed out a mistake, Li Yunluo felt that his heart was pinched hard, this circle down, he helplessly found that he was completely busy this afternoon.
"Oh, forget it, it's no wonder you, after all, you're only theoretical knowledge, and you haven't practiced much in this area, so let's do it, you give me a hand, I'll put it in the picture, of course, I don't see this picture very clearly, but at least it's not even the wrong direction. The more Old Man Wang looked at it, the more angry he became, so he simply rolled up his sleeves and began to move.
In this way, the old and young were busy for a while, and after the two of them sweated profusely and completed the various wood and stone piles and made some arrangements, it seemed that it was already dawn, when Yun Luo stepped into the small courtyard again, but he was stunned, this courtyard was under the guidance of the old shaman and the arrangement of the old man Li, the whole seemed to change the atmosphere.
At this time, the small courtyard, although there is no major change in the layout, but the overall feeling is very solemn, in all directions, there are eight more tree stumps, the short one is about half a meter, and the high one is more than one meter high.
Unlike when I got it back, the stump at this time was carved with a lot of carvings, and if you looked closely, there were different animal patterns carved on it, and each pier was carved with a strange symbol, which was different.
A large copper basin larger than a basin was placed on the stump, filled with charcoal bought, set up high, and at the same time put a lot of herbs and other items in the basin.
In the middle of the courtyard, firewood and charcoal more than one person high were set up like a bonfire, and the courtyard, which was not very large, was a little crowded after such a mountain-like firewood was occupied, and on this firewood volcano, there were many small hooks sticking out everywhere, and I don't know what it was for.
Looking up, Li Yunluo was even more surprised, I don't know where the two got more than ten animal bones, which were hung on the courtyard wall and the ridge and eaves and other high places, and took a cold look, among which the cow head, horse head, dog head, etc. were among them, which looked very terrifying.
"Boy, don't think I'm joking, if the old fairy makes a move, you kid must get too close to me. While Yun Luo was observing, the old shaman on the side suddenly spoke.
"Grandpa, in fact, it doesn't have to be like this, the kid has a way to breathe, I don't know if I can use it. In the past, I only used it when I meditated, and I didn't understand what dragon qi you were talking about, but I think it should still be okay if you restrain your breath. Li Yunluo said as he lowered his head slightly, and when he looked up again, he felt a lot quieter.
"Well, this method is somewhat useful, and the momentum is obviously much smaller now, so it basically has no effect, boy, you can practice this kung fu at home, don't make trouble for the old fairy when the time comes." The old shaman was still not at ease.
"It's okay, this work only needs to be adjusted slightly, nothing unusual, so there will be no mistakes. Yun Luo said indifferently.
"That's good, okay, you guys are tired all night, so take a good rest, tomorrow night won't be so comfortable." The old shaman said as he trembled towards his room.
Looking at the layout of the courtyard, the only three people left looked at each other, and no one spoke, people are sometimes like this, the waiting time is the hardest, especially this kind of dangerous but helpless thing.
