Chapter 70, the golden crow leaves the fire flag
After the platoon had recovered, they sent their men around looking for people who had seen the battle, gathering information from them, and seeing if they could get some news about the person who had come to attack for no apparent reason because of the bystanders. On the other hand, they set up altars, burned incense, and got in touch with the masters of the helm.
Pan Long did not participate in the actions of both sides on the grounds of fatigue. He's been in the limelight enough today, so it's better to keep a low profile.
But his thoughts were obviously in vain, as soon as he woke up, he felt that outside his shack as soon as he got up, He Dazhi was waiting with a very strong person.
The man's breath was peaceful, no different from ordinary people, but in his induction, he clearly felt that the other party's sense of existence was extremely strong, like a red sun falling on the river, and no one could ignore it.
He could vaguely feel that the breath on that person's body was flowing in a very strange way, and this way of flowing seemed to form a kind of echo with the sun in the sky. If you want to do it with this person, you must not choose noon, but choose midnight, these two different time periods, the strength that person can exert may be half or even more different.
But...... Maybe it's just an illusion? The characters who can cultivate to the realm of returning to the basics, except for a few others such as him, are almost all old rivers and lakes. It's not surprising at all to play some conspiracy to deceive people.
He hurriedly cleaned up, opened the curtain and went out, and said apologetically: "Pan Long is not talented, it is really a sin to let a heavenly master wait outside the door!"
The man suddenly smiled: "In terms of cultivation, all things below immortality are mortal, it's just that those laypeople insist on dividing them into three, six, nine and so on." Pan Shaoxia is also a character in the realm of returning to the truth, and he must also be called a 'grandmaster' on the rivers and lakes, so why bother with this detail. ”
The two sides looked at each other and smiled, and He Dazhi hurriedly introduced them to both sides.
But it turned out that that person was one of the four major masters of the "weeping scholar" Yan Zhenqing.
This weeping scholar is also a well-known predecessor in the rivers and lakes, and his most famous deed is to cultivate magic skills into righteous martial arts.
Yan Xinqing was originally not a person in the sect, but a descendant of the demon gate giant "tears wash the common people" and cry old man.
The crying old man is a well-known devil in the world, who likes to torture others mentally, and often tortures people until they are heartbroken and can't cry before they are willing to kill people. People in the rivers and lakes often say that "killing people is not enough", and his approach has obviously far exceeded the limit of what the rivers and lakes can tolerate, and finally attracted the joint encirclement and suppression of black and white.
Four hundred years ago, more than ten masters of good and evil joined forces to chase and kill the big devil in Xiaotianshan.
Although the old man is dead, the demonic mastery of his department has not been lost. That mastery called "Heavenly Crying Sutra" was obtained by Yan Xinqing after being lost for many years. But Yan Xinqing has never harmed anyone, on the contrary, he has done a lot of good things such as paving roads and bridges, giving porridge to help the poor, and is a well-known and decent person.
And the way this weeping scholar cultivated the Heavenly Weeping Sutra, according to him, was to cry by himself.
On the gate of the Yan Mansion, there is a couplet that reads, "I see how many sufferings of sentient beings, how can I not burst into tears".
In this way, he cultivated the Heavenly Crying Sutra, and Yan Xinqing can be regarded as a unique way, and is respected as a generation of grandmasters who turn demons into saints.
Later, because of the origin of the family and Pai Jiao, Yan Xinqing made a name in Pai Jiao and became one of the four major teachers of Pai Jiao, who was responsible for those who were kind to others, and was probably the spokesperson for the positive image of Pai Jiao.
He is handsome, and he looks like an elegant old scholar, but there is a sadness in his eyes that cannot be dissolved, and he is probably worried all day long for various reasons, and his life is very unhappy.
Pan Long felt that even if he wanted to turn demons into saints, the price he paid would be too great.
The two sides returned to the shack and sat down, and Yan Xinqing first thanked Pan Long on behalf of the Pai Jiao, and then took out a small pennant and handed it to Pan Long.
"We picked and chosen, and we felt that this treasure was the most suitable for you, so please accept it. ”
When Pan Long looked at the flag, he was shocked in his heart.
This flag is not big, the flagpole is no more than half a foot long, and the flag is not much bigger than a slap. Both the flagpole and the flag face are red, but various patterns are drawn in different shades of red.
The patterns on the flagpole are mostly flames and moire, and on the flag is a red sun, and in the center of the red sun is a three-legged crow, spreading its wings.
As soon as this flag was taken out, even through the shed, it immediately echoed with the sun in the sky, and Pan Long clearly felt that there was a steady stream of blazing fire absorbed and gathered by it, hidden in the round of red sun on the flag, and then slowly flowed in it, deriving a wonderful rhythm.
It was exactly what he had felt when he had felt the people outside the house before.
But it turned out that what he felt just now was not the breath of the "weeping scholar", but the breath of this flag.
"What is this?" he didn't immediately agree, but asked cautiously.
This flag doesn't look like an ordinary thing, so let's talk about it first. If it was really a treasure that was crucial to the teaching, he would never accept it.
Yan Xinqing smiled and didn't speak, but He Dazhi explained to Pan Long.
It turned out that this flag was called the "Golden Crow Fire Flag", which was a magic weapon evolved from the famous Five Directions and Five Elements Flag.
The Five Elements Banner is one of the most famous magic weapons in the early Daomen. can use the power of the five directions and five elements to protect themselves, as long as they are not cut off by the corresponding five elements, their defenses will be difficult to break, and they can almost be regarded as invincible.
It's just that the world is big, and there are many capable people. The means of dividing the five elements emerge in endlessly, although the five party and five elements flag is powerful, but once it meets an insider, it is often cracked in a few clicks.
In order to solve this problem, the Daomen masters carried out research and improvement on the Five Directions and Five Elements Banner, and many magic weapons were derived from it.
The Golden Crow is a 180-degree turn from the original, completely abandoning the concept of defense and transforming all power into attack. It can absorb all the firepower of heaven and earth, store it in the flag, and turn it into a raging flame when necessary.
If this were the case, the banner would have been called "Leaving the Fire". The word "Golden Crow" in front of it is someone who has improved it again on the basis of the fire flag, so that this flag can be induced by the red sun in the sky, which can not only continuously absorb the sun's firepower and store it when there is no fire, but also echo the brilliant sun when fighting during the day, and burst out with stronger power.
"In the past, thirteen masters of good and evil besieged the ancestor of the weeping old man, and one of them held this flag, killing him so that he had no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. In the end, he died in the Little Tianshan Mountain, and this person's contribution is probably the greatest. Yan Xinqing said, "After I have cultivated my divine skills, I will visit the descendants of these thirteen masters one by one to settle the grievances of the past. This flag was given by the master after he resolved the misfortune of the master's junior. ”
Pan Long has also heard of this past, and an important reason why Yan Xinqing is recognized as a decent person is that after he cultivated the Heavenly Crying Sutra, he looked for the descendants of those masters who besieged and killed the crying old man in the past, but instead of going to the door to seek revenge, he opened up the past grievances and explained them, turned hostility into jade silk, and became friends.
At that time, more than 200 years had passed since the crying old man was killed. Some of the descendants of the thirteen masters are soaring, some are down, and some are even pushed by the wall, and they are being chased and killed like lost dogs.
Yan Xinqing and these people resolve their grievances one by one, and it is inevitable that they will help those who have fallen into difficulties to tide over the difficulties. It's just that the legends of the rivers and lakes have not mentioned it, and there are people who will give such a heavy treasure!
Although he said it lightly, it must be extremely difficult to resolve the madness of the master's descendants.
"I can't accept this treasure!" Pan Long immediately shook his head, "This is a gift from someone else to the seniors, and it can even be regarded as a token, it should be passed on in the hands of the seniors' disciples, how can it be given to me!"
Yan Xinqing sighed, and tears faintly filled her eyes: "Among my apprentices, there is only one who has become a weapon. But he said that my method of cultivating the Heavenly Crying Sutra had also fallen into the Demon Dao, and he had already abandoned me. Now I am lonely, and after my life is over, my descendants will definitely not be able to maintain my current status in the rivers and lakes. If these treasures are left to them, they will only cause trouble for them!"
"That can also stay in the platoon. Pan Long said.
"There are twelve treasures of Luo Tian in Pai Jiao, there are not many banners, and there are many banners less. Yan Xinqing smiled slightly and said lightly.
More of this is not too much, less of this is not too much?
Pan Long looked at He Dazhi from the corner of his eye, only to see that He Dazhi's gaze fell on the Golden Crow Fire Flag, and he almost refused to blink.
This treasure is really full of attraction for a sorcerer like him, just like food is to a gourmet, and beauty is to a pervert, scratching his itch.
"So, is it okay to leave it to the outstanding juniors in the sect?" Pan Long said, "For example, in the future, when the junior masters of the sect are in charge of the training, they will give such a treasure, and if they encounter a strong enemy again, they will be able to resist one or two." ”
Yan Xinqing immediately understood what he meant, looked at He Dazhi, and shook his head.
"If there are no masters in charge, relying on these 'junior masters', holding this flag, it is just an extra trophy to the enemy. ”
He Dazhi's face turned red suddenly, and he was no longer embarrassed to look at the Golden Crow from the Fire Flag, looking down at the wooden raft under his feet, he couldn't wait to dig a hole in the wooden raft and get into the river.
He has always boasted of his strong means, and before the departure of this experience, as the leader of this wooden platoon, he once made a bold statement, claiming that with the help of a large array, even if a strong enemy attacked, he could maneuver one or two.
As a result, a really strong enemy attacked last night, and he couldn't resist it at all. If it weren't for Pan Long's presence, I am afraid that the whole army would have been wiped out all the way and would have gone to the bottom of the river to feed the fish.
After losing such a big person, where is he embarrassed to say anything more?
Pan Long also shook his head and explained: "That senior monk last night really has great powers, and it is not Brother He's fault. ”
"I also know that it is not his fault, judging from the situation last night, even if the monk did not step into the Arhat realm, it is estimated that it will not be far away. He couldn't resist, and rightfully so. If he could resist it, I would be surprised. Yan Xinqing sighed, "It's not that I don't want to enhance the strength of the junior disciples, it's just that I can eat as much as I want. ”
He Dazhi suddenly showed an embarrassed look - he estimated that the nickname "King of Forks" might have spread from then on.
In the future, when people in the rivers and lakes talk about him He Dazhi, one mouth is "the king of the forks...... Thinking about this, he suddenly felt that his whole life was gray.
He likes the magic weapon of the Six Flying Forks, but it doesn't mean that he likes such a nickname!
Pan Long couldn't help laughing, and no longer shirked, accepting the flag.
"Since my predecessors said so, if I refuse to accept it again, it will be arrogant and rude. In this way, if I walk the rivers and lakes in the future, if I see a master of integrity and cultivation of flame martial arts, I will give this flag on behalf of my predecessors, so that it can be carried forward in the hands of people who are really suitable for it, do my predecessors think it is okay?"
Yan Xinqing smiled and nodded.
After Pan Long put away the Dharma flag, he asked: "That monk last night has great powers, I don't know what you guess about his origin?"
Pan Long shook his head: "If I'm not mistaken, that person used the Buddhist mastery 'Sakya Palm', but the Sakya Palm is widely spread among the Buddhism, and nine out of ten eminent monks have cultivated, and I really can't guess who he is." ”
In fact, he had vaguely guessed the identity of the old monk, but it was difficult to say.
The methods used by the old monk are plausible with the Shakya's palm, and the biggest difference is probably the "killing intent".
Shakya's palm only destroys evil spirits, but does not hurt goodness. Although Pan Long asked himself if he couldn't be considered morally noble, he had really done a lot of good things in his life, no matter how he looked at it, he was at least a good person.
If the old monk had used the Shakya palm and struck him with a palm, he should have been unharmed.
This martial art is so similar to the Shakya Palm, but it is so powerful, it is obviously based on the Shakya Palm, specially researched.
Buddhist monks won't be so boring - they can practice a lot, and there's no need to take off your pants and fart. Those who will do this are not only not Buddhism, but may also contradict Buddhism.
The old monk made a move and used a method similar to Shakya's palm to sneak attack the sect, just afraid that he would blame Jiangdong.
With this clue, it can be investigated from the enemies of Pai Sect and Buddhism, and there should not be too many forces that can have grudges with both sides. Among them, there are naturally fewer great grandmasters.
Pan Long believes that as long as he follows this clue, it should not be difficult to find the old monk.
After all, the old monk died at his hands, and even his body was buried in another world. The disappearance of a great grandmaster is something that cannot be hidden.
But he didn't say any of these things.
After all, it's easy to say, but it's not easy to explain......
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
