Chapter 1 Grievances and grievances
No starry eyes!
There is no moon in the sky!
The night was low, and I couldn't see my fingers. A dazzling lightning bolt split the endless sky, and after a faint thunder, another lightning bolt pierced the night sky, bringing a moment of light to the dark earth!
The wind, howling through the wilderness, brought with it the sound of tearing eardrums.
At the moment of lightning, on a barren country road illuminated, a majestic black shadow walked like a fly.
The lightning reappeared, and it turned out that the majestic black shadow was the overlap of two figures, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy with a middle-aged man on his back, the young man was as plump as jade, and the middle-aged man had a large blood stain on his chest that had dried up for a short time, which seemed to be seriously injured, dying, and skinny.
"Dad, hold on a little longer, and we'll be there soon, and as soon as the storm comes down, our trail will be gone. The boy muttered.
The middle-aged man on his back snorted and said, "God will not stop us, I should also give you something." ”
"What, Dad, you still have something to hide?"
"Not bad!"
"Haven't you heard about it before?"
"You'll know when you get to the place!"
"Who are the masked people who broke into your home? ...... hurt you like this."
"Kid, you'll know later, now let's go!"
The deafening thunder passed through, the lightning flashed, and the raindrops the size of beans were sprinkled!
"Dad, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first, shall we?"
"No, let's go!"
"But you're hurt......"
"It's because I'm ...... ...... Alas, don't say more, kid!"
"How far is it to Dagushan Landa Temple?"
"Come on! turn around the mountain ring ......"
Thunder rumbles!
Flashing!
The wind and the rain beat the earth frantically, as if the end was coming, and only in the flash of lightning, the father and son could be vaguely seen limping forward in the mud.
Turning around the mountain ring, a dilapidated temple looms!
"It's here...... Child...... Sub ......"
The young man quickened his pace and ran towards the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
As soon as he entered the main hall, the young man seemed to be exhausted, put down the middle-aged man, and sat down decadently leaning on the fallen half-section of the Buddha statue.
In the flash of lightning, the dilapidated and decaying walls of the Zen courtyard were reflected, and the cobwebs were sealed.
"Dad, why are we here? The temple has been abandoned for more than thirty years. ”
"Well, it's been so long!"
The middle-aged man was paralyzed on the ground, his head tilted to one side, and his chest rose and fell sharply.
"Daddy...... You...... You...... What's wrong?"
"Child...... Child...... Go into the Buddha statue......"
"Dad, you should ...... first."
"Get in!"
The middle-aged man's eyes were gleamed, his face twitched, and he gritted his teeth and raised his fingers lightly and shouted. The young man shuddered and stumbled into the Buddha statue on the altar that was only half of his body.
"Upper left kun position...... You touch it...... There's a mechanism, press the ...... hard"
The wind and rain gradually stopped, and the thunder stopped. The young man groped carefully with doubts and uneasiness, and finally found a faint protrusion, and pressed it down with his palm.
"Squeak...... Yikes......"
The sound of masonry rubbing against each other seemed to hit the young man's heart, eerie and terrifying.
The wind blows the rotten window lattices, and from time to time makes strange sounds, and those pillars, corners, and pennies are like ghosts in the dark night.
"Daddy...... There is a hole in the Buddha's foot. ”
The young man climbed out of the Buddha statue and fell directly to the ground, stirring up a puff of dust.
"You're afraid of it...... No...... Kid?"
"No...... I'm not afraid!"
At this time, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, the moon poked its head out of the clouds, the moonlight fell to the ground, and the young man's mood calmed down a lot.
"Help me...... Go down ......"
The entrance of the cave could only accommodate one person, and after the young man carefully helped the middle-aged man down, he followed the steps and got in.
The middle-aged man saw that the young man had also walked in, and he didn't know what mechanism he had touched, and the entrance of the cave was closed again with an unpleasant sound, and rows of oil lamps suddenly lit up around him.
The young man was stimulated by the sudden appearance of light, narrowed his eyes slightly, stumbled over something under his feet, staggered and looked down, and couldn't help but exclaim, and the hair on his whole body stood upside down.
It was a white skeleton.
Then the deep corridor......
Two, three, four......
It's all white bones.
The young man stopped, trembling and his teeth chattering.
"Daddy, these ......"
"No...... To ask...... Into that...... Centering ...... Main Hall!"
The young man looked a little hesitant with the middle-aged man on his back, he didn't dare to imagine what kind of misery was in the main hall, he had a thousand doubts in his heart, but he couldn't say it in his throat for a while, and subconsciously, he felt that all kinds of things tonight were unusual. Daddy would never ask him to brave the midnight storm to come to this bone-white underground palace for no reason.
After the middle-aged man choked for a while, he said sharply: "Hurry up...... Enter the temple!"
The young man was shocked, and let out a blank "hmm!" as he stepped into the main hall.
The four walls of the main hall are painted with eight heavenly dragons, which are empty, and under the reflection of the bright lights, they look ghostly and chilling.
It is another white skeleton, lying in the hall.
The boy couldn't help but be surprised again, "Ah!".
"Let me go...... Come down!"
The young man gently lowered the middle-aged man as ordered, and when he looked back, he was already frozen, as if he was in a nightmare.
The first time he saw his kind father, he had this terrifying expression on his face.
"Daddy...... You ......"
"I'm not...... You...... Daddy!"
The boy took a big step back, he thought, Daddy might have been so badly injured that he was a little delirious.
"Child, point Garuda's right hand...... That lamp...... Pull it down. ”
The young man walked to the mural with Garuda and pulled down the lamp diagonally above Garuda's right hand.
After a muffled roar, an altar rose in the middle of the main hall.
"You, break the skeleton's right hand, there's the key......"
The muscles on the middle-aged man's face twitched constantly, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down, looking very painful.
The boy gritted his teeth and walked to the white bone skeleton, hesitated for a long time, and finally broke the phalanges of the skeleton's right hand with a pant of breath, and took out a golden key.
"Daddy......"
The boy returned to the middle-aged man with the key in his hand.
"I'm not your father!"
"Your old man ......"
"Now listen up!"
The young man looked at the middle-aged man in shock, and his face was pale.
"I'm your father's lieutenant Xuankong!"
The young man's heart was shocked, and he said in a trembling voice: "Daddy......"
The middle-aged man was stunned, interrupted the young man's words, and said, "I am your father's deputy general Xuankong, and forty years ago I was the little novice who served and presided over this Landa Temple. ”
"My father, ...... you?"
"Yes, I'm not your biological father. ”
"So, I don't have the surname Wang?"
"Your surname is Ren!"
The young man's body couldn't help shaking, "Surname Ren!"
"Yes, the surname is Ren, you remember, your name is Ren Pingsheng!"
"Ren Pingsheng?"
"Well, your father's name is Ren Lingjun, he was originally General Chen Guo, the Great Grandmaster of the Heavenly Transformation Realm!"
An ominous shadow immediately caged Ren Pingsheng's heart, causing him to shudder twice in a row, and said in a trembling voice: "Father......"
Xuankong sighed miserably: "He was robbed of a thousand loves, and Chen Xionghuai, the monarch of Chen State, killed him in front of the two armies in order to make peace with Chu State!"
Ren Pingsheng seemed to be hit by Jiao Lei, and shouted miserably: "Father!" There were bloody tears in his eyes.
"Fourteen years ago, when you were just full moon, it happened that your father returned from breaking the Qi and Chu coalition army, and at the celebration banquet, he was suddenly poisoned, and then the royal guards broke into the general's mansion...... I took advantage of the chaos to take you out of the mansion, and after many inquiries, the general has ......"
Xuankong's eyes were about to crack, and his steel teeth were crushed.
Xuankong continued: "Originally, I wanted to avenge your father, the general, but you are the general's only blood...... I've taken you incognito for so many years, but I didn't expect ......"
"Those men in black are Chen Guo's killers?"
He ...... They are the assassins of the Demon Cult Blackwater Palace!"
Xuankong spurted out a mouthful of blood, and Ren Pingsheng hurriedly stepped forward to support Xuankong.
Xuankong glanced at him, and said: "Back then, the six major sects of black and white joined forces to wash the Landa Temple in blood, and the purpose was just for the sake of the Buddha's saint-level exercise "The Heart Sutra", but they didn't know that even if there was the "Heart Sutra", they couldn't practice this magic skill without great compassion and compassion to explore the vanity......
Xuankong screamed, and another mouthful of blood came out of his mouth, and his body was shaky.
"Where's my mother?"
Xuankong gritted his teeth and said, "Your mother?"
Ren Pingsheng was shocked in his heart and said, "What's wrong with my mother?"
"Your mother is the third princess of Chen Guo, who can be called the first beauty in the world!"
"She's still alive?"
"Alive!"
"Where is she now?"
"She is the current Queen of Qin Guoxuan!"
"What?"
"Kid, don't ask!"
Ren Pingsheng shook his head and said, "No, I want to know!"
"It's your mother who poisoned your father!"
Ren Pingsheng was numb all over his body and said, "How is this possible?"
"But that's the truth!"
"I don't believe it!"
"I once approached her alone and asked her why she wanted to harm the general, but I almost lost her hand, forcing me to take you to this wasteland. If I'm not mistaken, she should be the Holy Maiden of Yaochi!"
Ren Pingsheng screamed wildly, the forbidden hands were already dripping with blood at the tiger's mouth because of the force, he couldn't imagine that he had such a poisonous mother like a snake and scorpion, "Bang!" He couldn't stand anymore, and sat on the ground.
"I just wanted you to live this life in peace, because you can't get revenge. ”
Ren Pingsheng covered his face with his hands and hissed: "Why do I have such a mother? Oh my God!"
"Child, you are finally an adult, I hope you can help me continue to protect the inheritance of the Landa Temple, when I was saved by your father, there was a word at the time, I served him for twenty years, and I will rebuild the Landa Temple after returning the life-saving grace, now it seems that I can't finish it, but I hope you help me ......"
Ren Pingsheng wiped his tears, knelt down in front of Xuankong and said: "I can't avenge the murder of my father in this life, but your kindness must be repaid. ”
