Final Chapter. 141. Know the destiny of heaven
Guan Beidou's Qimen derivation technique is originally inherited from the orthodox technique of Xuanmen; Coupled with the blessing and assistance of the earth spirit vein, it is logical to become the first master of controlling yin and yang, intercepting qi and luck. It can also be said that his Guan Beidou's strength and status in the Yin-Yang Technique are no different from Lin Siwei, the "Holy Hand of Rejuvenation" of the Medical Dao.
The principle of "rejuvenation" is to burn one's own essence and blood, promote the high-speed self-healing of the human body, and bridge injuries at the cost of accelerated aging; Therefore, strictly speaking, "rejuvenation surgery" cannot cure diseases, but can only save people: just like a sugarcane that begins to rot from the middle, the use of rejuvenation surgery can cut off this section of decay without injury, and maintain the natural and healthy growth of sugarcane; But in this way, the total length of this sugar cane will always be missing.
And Guan Beidou's observation technique is also strictly shackled by the laws of heaven and earth. He can speculate on the causes and consequences of mortals or things, and he can also cast spells to change fortunes through various means, affecting the unique trajectory of life, but he can never affect the final result. For example, a person is destined to die in the fire tribulation, and through Guan Beidou's spell casting, he can perfectly avoid the fire tribulation, but he can't delay the death date, and he can't even do it a few days in advance.
In other words, even with the assistance of Guan Beidou, the king of Hades ordered the third watch to die, although he could not drag it out for the fifth watch, he could choose a relatively decent way to die......
Of course, for the family, this matter is nothing more than an extra effort to explain the future; But for Guan Beidou himself, he can personally design a dead end for the other party, and guide this person to follow the trajectory he has set and go to the final destination.
If you use this technique to guide a seller of baked cakes when and how to die, of course, it doesn't matter; But what if you guide the life of a king, or a prince? The impact that can be brought to the Huayu continent is very different!
The same is true for the occupation of the body. On the surface, Lin Siwei and Li Le'an's apprentices' careers, like Guan Beidou, can control the life and death of mortals through their own abilities, and affect the trajectory of a person, a family, and even a country; However, as a healer, he has to witness the joys and sorrows of his patients every day, while the warlock only needs to drum up the formation astrolabe and observe the astrological luck; After a long time, the differences between professions will naturally be seen in me
As a doctor, the most worrying thing is that he can't do anything in the face of a terminal illness, and Guan Beidou is most worried about completely losing his ability to control; However, there are many incurable diseases in this world, but the people who can escape from Guan Beidou's palms are rare.
Doctors cure the sick and save people, with a compassionate heart for their parents; And the warlock ignores the birth, old age, sickness and death of the world, and refines the heart of an iron-faced judge; The two have the same origin but different paths, and they cannot be the same.
The desire for control cannot be relieved, and "obsessive-compulsive disorder" has become an occupational disease that Guan Beidou cannot escape; Healers can accept the natural death of the elderly; He can also accept that he cannot act against the heavens, and cannot spy on and guide the fate of those who are in the spirit veins of heaven and earth......
But Shen Gui is something, it will definitely make Guan Beidou angry!
Since the initial decision of Youbei Third Road, Shen Gui's body has continued to gather three-inch dragon nails; This was originally the town of the dragon vein of the underground palace of Chang'an City, a set of nine pieces, and it is said that it is still an ancient artifact left by the great god of Fuxi in the world!
However, to this day, Shen Gui is still pregnant with seven of the nine, but he still only thinks that it is Guan Beidou to recast the "new dragon vein"; But he never figured it out: since he was born in Diting, why did he have to borrow chickens to lay eggs and rack his brains to live by himself?
In fact, for Guan Beidou, who is still angry, this matter is both a public matter and a private matter. And he also knows the specific whereabouts of these Zhenlong nails, even if he personally collects them, he will never be half a point slower than Shen Gui.
However, the two in Bai Wenyan's hands, Zuo Fu and Right Bi, are really troublesome......
Therefore, this is a way for Guan Beidou to grasp Shen Gui's movements; This one by one Zhenlong nails are the "tracking objects" he put on Shen Gui's body; He calculated the direction and aura of the Zhenlong nail to reverse Shen Gui himself. In other words, the more Zhenlong nails Shen Gui carried, the weaker the influence of Heavenly Dao on Guan Beidou became, and his observation technique had a broader space to play.
When Shen Gui collected the seventh Zhenlong Nail, he lit seven Dao lamps for Shen Gui, which was to destroy the demons for the Seven Stars. As a result, Shen Gui's fate was firmly nailed to these seven dim flames by Guan Beidou; When a light is turned off, a sensation in the human body will disappear with it; When the seventh lamp representing "spiritual awareness" goes out, Shen Gui will also become a fake dead person, a piece of soulless "raw meat".
This is also the fundamental reason why he concluded that Shen Gui had few days left.
Therefore, when Guan Beidou heard the news that Shen Guiyuan went to the Great Wilderness City to take revenge and died in the fire afterwards, he immediately ordered Di Tingzhong to go to Qin Tiansi to check the seven-star demon extinguishing lamp he had set up. Di Ting is worthy of being the top intelligence system in the Huayu Continent, and after only one night, the black dog brought back the exact news.
Last night, when the sky was handed over, there was a sudden strong wind in Yanjing City; And all the lights in the Qin Tiansi were also extinguished without wind, including the seven demon-extinguishing lamps!
In addition to this news, there is an even more suspenseful accident: almost at the same time, the "Shen Gui corpse" that was hung on the east gate of the Great Wilderness City does not know who secretly stole it at night; According to Li Minghan, who personally "killed" Shen Gui in the fire, after he got the report, he immediately led people out of the city and searched for him with Qi Yuanjun; It wasn't until the early hours of this morning that a fresh scorched black trace was found on the bank of a tributary of the Tongjiang River, which should be the cremation site of Shen Gui's body!
Who is Guan Beidou, as soon as he heard it, he knew that there was a falsehood in the words of this "assassin hero" Li Minghan. However, this person is only a small military officer in a remote area; It seems that this matter of taking the risk of receiving a reward is a matter of course, and it is not worth mentioning at all; As for the person who stole Shen Gui's body at night, it should be the old reckless man who had the same old relationship with Shen Gui in the past! The man knew that he would not be able to escape far with the corpse on his shoulder, so he had to cremate it on the banks of the Tongtong River, and the ashes had either been sprinkled into the surging river or were carried by the man in some containers......
Thinking that after figuring out the cause and effect, Guan Beidou turned back to the black dog and asked:
"Can you be sure it's Shen Gui himself?"
"There shouldn't be anything wrong with this time. According to our brothers' investigations, it was confirmed that when Li Minghan carried Shen Gui out of the ruins that day, half of the people in the Great Desert City were watching; And all the people can be sure that this person is the quasi-son-in-law of the old minister-Shen Gui! By the way, there is another thing: Lu Qingxiu of the Ghost Hand Gate, when he was poisoned outside Qingshan City, he didn't know who cut his neck; My brother had seen the corpse, and he said that judging from the technique and the wound, it must have been the fingertip knife of the little man. I pondered, since I could kill Lu Qingxiu quietly, then the person who shot it was not Qin Zigui of the hundred birds, but only his own junior brother "Nan Feiyan"! ”
When Guan Beidou heard the name "Nanfei Geese", he really pondered for a long time; It wasn't until he recalled that this was Qi Yan's name in the rivers and lakes that he nodded and said:
"It's also a knife to a sheath. The Qi brothers and Shen Gui grew up together since childhood, and the friendship between them is very high; Presumably, not only Lu Qingxiu's life, but also the person who "stole the corpse and burned the bones" outside the Great Wilderness City, and this "Southern Flying Goose" was also destined to ......"
As soon as he said this, Guan Beidou suddenly remembered the raging fire in the East Customs without warning, and changed his hesitant tone:
"Hmm...... Wait! Fourth, at the moment, there are a few things going on in and out, and they are almost a perfect fit; But how can there be such a clear understanding of the incompleteness of the heavens and the earth? ”
"What the third brother said is also reasonable...... But isn't your seven-star demon extinguishing lamp already extinguished by the wind? Even though Shen Gui is scheming, insidious and cunning, he can deceive everyone, but he can't deceive God after all, right? ”
Guan Beidou nodded after hearing this, but saw that the black dog had a different look on his face, so he subconsciously pinched the trick with his hand and asked casually:
“…… Oh...... It turns out that this "cause" originated from Qiao Muqiu's body. Does he have something for you to bring to me? ”
"Well, I didn't know what to say...... He asked me to tell you: Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, but loyalty comes before filial piety. This time I told our people that I would repay you for more than 20 years of nurturing and cultivation; I hope you can take care of your health in the future, if he is fated to meet again......"
Guan Beidou still understood when he heard this, this is Qiao Muqiu who wants to kill his relatives in righteousness and cut off relations with himself, a "traitor to Beiyan"!
"Ridiculous! Stupidity! As soon as he joined me in foreign cultivation, he had already jumped out of the Three Realms! What loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve, he is an outsider, who to be loyal to, and which to be filial! Fourth! Is he still alive now? ”
"Third brother...... After all, Qiao Muqiu is the only disciple you have brought for twenty years; Without you, how dare we make our own decisions. ”
"What kind of disciple is he! Slaughter me ......"
As soon as he said the word "slaughter", Guan Beidou's chest was lifted by anger, but suddenly it seemed to be a pig's urine bubble that had lost his breath, slowly deflated, and he just waved his hand casually and said:
"Hey... That's it... You make me think again......"
Guan Beidou has rarely shown his true skills in front of people in this life; On weekdays, whether it is to open the altar to pray for blessings or walk the rivers and lakes, in addition to the hand painting of the Jianghu color performer, he will also use some "witch doors" to pretend to be gods and ghosts; All because of this kind of quick effect, strong visual impact of small tricks, in the hearts of mortals, more marketable, more confusing; And Qiao Muqiu studied the Tao under his seat, and most of the people who came back learned were this kind of "ability"; The real Xuanmen authentic magic method is actually just a foundation.
Of course, whether this Qiao Muqiu is dead or alive has nothing to do with the overall situation, it is just a matter of personal emotion; But Shen Gui's life and death have an extremely far-reaching impact on the entire Huayu Continent!
