Chapter 388: Changing the Heavens and the Earth
"I heard you right, didn't you say before that Jin Duan didn't have a favorite person? Why do you have husbands? The words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders are not successful? Lu Su asked like a cannon.
"Don't worry, listen to me slowly."
"Can I light a cigarette?"
"A kid your age smokes?" The wise man was slightly startled.
"This one! Reversal. A cigarette and a lighter appeared in his hand, and he pulled out one and asked, "Would you like to try it?" β
"Chewing?"
"Like this!" Lu Su made a demonstration, then lit a cigarette for the wise man, and saw the legendary figure unskillfully holding the cigarette and smoking it, and there was a subtle sense of dissonance. However, it seems that men and women of that era smoked, so opium smoke became popular in China later.
The two smoked cigarettes, like old friends for many years, Lu Su simply sat down cross-legged, this scene is very similar to the song "We sit on top of the high mound of dirt and listen to grandpa break the past".
The wise man said: "Actually, the five of us have our own lives, Kongjue opens a martial arts hall and kicks a gym, and the dry plains and wildfire brothers usually practice medicine everywhere, and I am a military attachΓ©. When I met, she was already married, married to a colleague of mine, that guy was a hereditary marquis, although he was a military attachΓ© but extremely mediocre, and had never made military exploits, and later I learned that he had a habit of dragon yang, and often wore women's clothes and rubbed with the ears and temples of the musicians. This kid was later forced to marry by his family, and he happened to meet Break, which was probably a mutually beneficial deal, and Break pretended to be his wife, so that he had endless money...... You know that girl spends a lot of money...... And you don't have to show your face for your livelihood and do all that dirty work. In addition, he replaced this gentleman boy on the battlefield and helped him make war exploits. Because of this relationship, I met and broke off, otherwise I wouldn't have had a chance to get close to her, an iceberg beauty! β
"Mutual aid family, there was one at that time!?"
"What is a mutual aid family?" The wise man didn't quite understand this term, "I have a general friendship with my husband, but I am very powerful, and when I fight, I rush to the front, and I have repeatedly made war exploits, and it is an extremely happy thing for her to fight." β
"But wouldn't that be exposed? Female generals? β
"No, there is this!" The wise man pointed to the mask that hung on his shoulder, "Every time she goes out on a battle, she wears a mask all over her body, and over time the soldiers get used to it, and no one doubts it." β
"This turned out to be a brocade thing." Lu Su glanced at the ghost mask in surprise, it really looked like the style of Jinduan.
"Her experience has earned her the nickname 'General' among her peers, and as for how this mask became my symbol, that was decades later."
"What I'm going to talk about next is the fact that the Five Demon Venerables swept half the world?"
"Yes, let me, an old bone, brag about his bravery back then. Decades after the five of us became friends, the world suddenly went in turmoil overnight. 'The country is dying, the demon ascends to heaven', when the world is in turmoil, the same kind of people can no longer live as ordinary people, they can only rely on their own strength to survive, and some even rely on cannibalism to fill their stomachs. This is also forced by livelihood, when I met Wu Tengyan, he was an out-and-out charlatan, and he did everything he could, and he was almost abducted and trafficked...... That deceived me out of a lot of money, woo! β
"You're talking about the old man!?"
"He's old now? What a change...... It was at that time that demon slayers were valued by the state because they hunted demons everywhere, and their power developed unprecedentedly, and some even joined the human war. I don't know if you can still read those history books now, when human battles were more terrible than demon wars...... Okay, I won't talk about it anymore.
"Originally, I wouldn't care how much the demon slayer hunted our kind, after all, most of the people who were hunted were traitors, and the total number of demons in the world was neither increasing nor decreasing, and the demons, demon slayers, and demon refiners existed in this world in a balanced manner like a three-legged tripod. But as the saying goes, with a sharp weapon in the heart, the murderous heart rises, with the growth of the power of these demon exterminators, they stretched out their hands to their own kind, and it is even more unacceptable, they make the demon into a demon soldier, and our kind is killed and poked for no reason, that era is the darkest age of demons. ββ¦,
The wise man looked at his outstretched five fingers and said faintly: "Heaven has given me such a skill, and it must be for my generation to base myself on heaven and earth and make some achievements." They're already so rampant, I think it's time to clean them up and save thousands of people. We first broke through the largest demon exterminator city in the Central Plains, and then went to the north to kill, the world said that we are like gods, in fact, how strong can the power of the five people be? You should be well aware! We are just five ordinary demons, and it is impossible to accomplish this great feat without everyone's help.
"The demon skill of the dry plain is the 'shadow sand soldier', a very rare shadow control demon skill, he can use his shadow to wrap a piece of sand like skin, and one thing that is very convenient is that these things can be copied, so every time we fight in a big war, we have thousands of troops who are not afraid of death always in front of the battle, blocking the Hongyi cannon of the government, all relying on the giant sand people of the dry plain. Wildfire is a reconnaissance-type demon skill, called 'Knowing the Earth and Listening to the Heavens', he can stick his head into the ground, and then use the earth as a medium to hear and see movements within a radius of several miles, and all reconnaissance is up to him. I don't need to say much, you are the most familiar, as for Kongjue, it seems that his demon skills are not very useful, he is too ashamed and never says, every time there is a war, Kongjue, the king of kung fu, and the king of close combat, rush into the crowd to fight, with one as a hundred! And I covered behind them to protect their safety.
"At the beginning, the tactics of the five of us went well, but the other party is not a fool after all, the same strategy is used too much, and there will always be a day when it will be discovered. We fought for four days and five nights in the battle of Changbai Mountain, the demon exterminator sent the army of the government, and the battle almost wiped out all five people, the dry plain and the wildfire died there, according to our agreement, the dead companions were eaten by the living companions, but no one could start, seeing that the bodies of the two were about to disappear, I relied on a little evil way that I would know, and refined their bones into a fan, and I also hoped that these two brothers could be together forever...... This yin and yang demon bone fan inexplicably has a peculiar function, I thought it was the two brothers who helped us after death.
"There are still a large number of demon slayer in the north, and the three of us are ready to finish the road with the determination to die, and at this time, many companions have joined us. At that time, the five demon statues that were rumored to be vigorous were actually changed several groups of people before and after, and sometimes it was the demon ten statues at all, and the only ones who didn't move were the three of us. Among these members who continue to join, my biggest headache is Wu Tengyan, who said that he was here to help, but he cheated us out of all the money we used to buy grain and grass before the war......"
Lu Su couldn't help but laugh. "Haha, it's really an old man's style."
However, Wu Tengyan also did some good things, and later he didn't know if it was because he had reformed himself or for other reasons, so he really came over to help. Don't look at him as greedy for life and afraid of death, but his strength is very strong, and he is more powerful than me when he moves ghosts, and he can think of many tricks. The other guy I remember the most, that guy almost killed all three of us! β
"Who is it?"
"A man named Liu Mengyuan, his demon skill is called 'Butterfly Sky Fire'......"
"Ah, I think I've heard of this guy." Lu Su couldn't remember for a while, why his head was stuck at a critical time.
Seeing that Lu Su didn't speak for a long time, the wise man smiled and continued: "Liu Mengyuan's purpose is this fan, it is said that this fan has a big secret, in fact, even I, the maker, don't know very well. Yoo Mong-hara is a complete madman who doesn't care about anything that has nothing to do with him at all and just wants to make himself stronger. Because he was behind his back, I died in his hands, but the fan did not take away ......"
"You're dead? So is your story over? β
"I saw the rest of the story through my broken eye, did anyone say that to you? A demon is a book......"...,
Awakened by the wise man, Lu Su suddenly remembered: "Ah, Qiu Prison said...... By the way, I remembered, Liu Meng was originally the helper of Qilin Mountain! β
"Kirin Mountain? What is that? The wise man did not delve into it, and continued, "The demon is not only a book, but also a book that is constantly written. The demon that has lost its body can also have new memories, after all, the deceased demon and the new owner's demon are combined, so the later memories are not mine, but broken. Don't forget, this is actually a broken demon core. He pointed to the ground under his feet, and Lu Su instantly understood.
The wise man paused for a moment and tapped his head with his finger: "Did I tell you about the mask?" β
"Nope!"
"Sure enough, I'm old, and I talk upside down. The five of us gave me a suggestion before we started, if one day I died, the tens of thousands of demons who had lost the leader should be the head of the horse. She knew life and death very clearly, so I came up with the idea that instead of commanding as me, I might as a symbol, so I put this mask on. Later, when I died, many people did not know about my death, because their 'wise man' still existed, and the person who wore the mask and this armor was Wu Tengyan......"
"Wow! The old man still has such a majestic past!? β
