"Ahh

In the night, a terrible scream came from a lake in the mountain behind Tiantong Temple.

In the night, the sharp cry came out far away, startling many birds in the night sky, making people nearby unsettled, making a group of Japanese monks who also lived here frown.

Some kind-hearted people will also recite sutras and pray for those who are suffering in their meditation rooms.

"That's too bad, isn't it?"

At a stone table by the lake, Zhang Lan played with a black fan, looking at the house in the bamboo forest behind him from time to time, and the screams came from there.

He's a man who occasionally has a good heart.

Especially when a good woman suffers, the probability of this kind of heart attack will be greatly increased.

On the contrary, Shen Qiu, who was sitting opposite Zhang Lan, didn't care, holding a booklet in his hand, and using the lamp on the stone table, he flipped through and checked it.

It's as if that terrible scream doesn't exist.

The booklet in his hand was found in the ruins of Guizang Villa, which was specially left to him by Lu Lianshan, some secrets about the hidden building, as well as the locations and characters of various important rudders.

Finally, there are some records of insights about the way of the ghost martial arts.

Lu Lianshan and the Ghost Spirit Wind Thunder God have coexisted for seventeen years, even if Dongying is included, he is definitely the person in this world who has the deepest understanding of the way of ghost martial arts.

The record he left behind was very helpful to Shen Qiu.

"You are so ruthless, like iron and stone, you can really be ruthless to torture a girl like this."

Zhang Lan glared at Shen Qiu.

He looked back angrily, and the little white cat Bai Ling'er was lying on the edge of the lake? Eating a plump fish? Is that what it catches on its own, the fruits of its own labor? Enjoy? Naturally, it tastes good.

In the face of Zhang Lan's accusation, Shen Qiu frowned.

He turned the page of the book in front of him? Say:

"Do people want to borrow their own strength to save their families? Is this a great sacrifice? Why is it that the words come to your mouth and are so ugly?

Besides, Shen is a man with a wife.

Naturally, you have to be unapologetic to other women, the same mistake? Just do it once.

Don't look at Yaoqin's mouth and say that she doesn't care? That's just because Huiyin and I had a friendship, before Yaoqin, and after careful calculation, Yaoqin is the third party who is a foot apart, so he is open to me.

But if so? There is another woman next to me, just afraid of tomorrow morning? My beloved wife is going to take the Falling Moon Qin? Together with my confidante who has achieved great swordsmanship, the two of them came to Ningbo to clean me up.

Chang Xijun's Lingyun gets along well with her? What if this is a little bit of a moth again? Shen died before he got out of school? This is a matter of principle for men. ”

"Where did you go?"

Zhang Lan was very dissatisfied with Shen Qiu's divergence from the topic, and the merry boy complained:

"You Shen Qiu is really not a man, this big man pays attention to three wives and four concubines, besides, you are here, how do they know?"

Shen Qiu's action of flipping through the book stopped, he glanced at the sky, and said:

"Don't you know?

The two crested eagles of Qingqing girl have now 'defected' to Yaoqin's side, they are Yaoqin's eyes, and what you said just now, after I go back, I must tell Xuanyu.

Hehe, three wives and four concubines, you Zhang Lan are also worthy? ”

Shen Qiu sneered mercilessly:

"From now on, you're definitely a rake ear man.

I'll put the words here, if you Zhang Lan really have the ability, go to Ningbo City now, find an Oiran, and take a look at it tonight, I will pay for the cost of piao, you can choose the best to enjoy.

Do you dare? ”

"Ahem, it's a big night, what are you talking about?"

Zhang Lan's cowhide was pierced, and he coughed very embarrassedly, looking at him left and right.

Seeing that Shen Qiu was going to say more, he hurriedly changed the topic and said seriously:

"I mean, it's been three days, Lu Yuniang hasn't succeeded in attracting spirits, and she has been tortured repeatedly, and if she continues like this, she will collapse early tomorrow morning.

With you and Lu Lianshan here, the ghost spirit wind and thunder god will not swallow her soul, but this ghost will not succeed, but it will destroy her life. ”

Shen Qiu put down the codex in his hand that he had read many times, and said:

"In Lu Lianshan's codex, it is very clear that whether the way of ghost martial arts can be achieved or not, in addition to the root bone of fate, the most important thing is will.

At first, you can't suppress the ghost spirit and let it worship you as your master, but when you practice later, it will be full of dangers.

It's like a boiling eagle, and it's like a taming animal, whips and candy in your hands, you can't miss it, otherwise you have to be eaten by the ghosts who are constantly watching. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Qiumo rubbed his chin and said in a playful tone:

"It reminds me of something old.

This way of ghost martial arts is nothing more than the old way of cultivating the heart demon, borrowing its strength, according to my experience, perhaps, at this time, I can help her by stabbing Lu Yuniang's eyes blindly. ”

"Don't fool around!"

Zhang Lan blinked and said:

"The young master of the codex has also read it, but there is no such one on it."

"Ugh."

Shen Qiu sighed and said:

"I'm playing with memes, you don't understand, it's really boring. Forget it, don't talk about her, I'll help her later, let's talk about other things, Lu Guizang, haven't you found it yet? ”

"Nope."

At the mention of this, Zhang Lan sighed.

He said:

"Shen Lan's side has used almost all the resources in Jiangnan, but he can't find any clues. Lu Guizang's martial arts are high in themselves, and now he has Lu Wenfu with him.

With the cooperation of this father and son, it is not to blame that the Five Elements Gate is not good, after all, even when the Five Elements Gate was in its heyday, it failed to successfully track the record of the masters of the Heavenly Ranks.

In my opinion, though. ”

Zhang Lan moved her fingers and said:

"Young Master Ben felt that Lu Guizang was likely to have left Ningbo and even Jiangnan in the past three days to join the Penglai thieves.

Don't forget, the reason why Lu Wenfu's soul has survived until now is because of Penglai's involvement, if you say, those thieves didn't do anything, I don't believe it first!

That's a heavenly list, even for Penglai, it's a rare good combat power.

Otherwise, there was no need for them to start laying out the Lu family from seventeen years ago. ”

Zhang Lan's guess is somewhat reasonable.

But Shen Qiu didn't think so.

He picked up the Codex in his hand again, and as he studied it, he said:

"I have a few tricks with Lu Guizang, although I can't see through the heart from the outside, but I have a feeling that Lu Wenfu is not from Penglai.

He may indeed have been tricked by the Penglai thieves, but in his heart, he did not obey them. ”

"How do you know?"

Zhang Lan incarnated as a bar spirit and asked rhetorically:

"The year Lu Wenfu died, you were just born, you haven't seen him, how do you know who he is?"

"I guess."

Shen Qiu said:

"I don't know who Lu Wenfu is, but I know who Uncle Ren is, and he regards killing Lu Wenfu by mistake as the biggest regret in his life.

It shows that he recognizes Lu Wenfu's personality, which is one of them. ”

"Second, your father, after Zhang Moxie became the leader of the Demon Sect, he didn't take the initiative to find trouble with Lu Wenfu.

With his young and frivolous character at that time, he couldn't be afraid of Lu Wenfu, which proves that not only Uncle Ren, but Zhang Moxie also looked at Lu Wenfu differently. ”

These two reasons, although somewhat idealistic, make Zhang Lan unable to refute.

But Shen Qiu's reason is a third one.

"In the end, Lu Wenfu loves his wife and family so much."

Shen Qiu sighed for a few breaths and said:

"I love my wife so purely, maybe I will be a wicked person, but I am certainly not a cowardly person who finds a wild father for himself in my heart."

"Hey, the more you talk about it, the more outrageous it gets."

Zhang Lan felt that Shen Qiu was completely, but in his heart, he actually agreed with this opinion.

He and Shen Qiu, Xiao Tie, Mountain Ghost, Liu Zhuoran, Li Yijian, and other people who play well, as well as his father who is like a love saint, are all people who love their wives, and they are not villains.

So looking at it this way, Shen Qiu's nonsense is quite reasonable.

"Don't talk about that."

Shen Qiu smiled, also feeling that this idea was a bit nonsense, and he asked again:

"What happened to Wujian and Hua Qing?"

"The two of them."

Zhang Lan yawned and said:

"They are on the side of the Zhoushan Islands, killing the Japanese and killing the people.

And your Seven Demons of Huangquan are completely free-range, you don't care at all, those seven organ people, just follow him for two, and they have been killing overseas for the past three days.

With their martial arts and efficiency, there were nearly 1,000 people who landed in the vanguard of the Japanese Kingdom, and I am afraid that this will be wiped out.

I'm going to sleep, and I'm going to continue practicing the green sac poison technique in the middle of the night. ”

Zhang Lan stood up and changed his body to the little white cat, Bai Linger licked her lips, ran with light steps, jumped into Zhang Lan's arms, and rubbed his chest with affection.

He waved his hand at Shen Qiu, and carried a getaway under his feet, blending into the night in a flash.

This playboy talks about laziness, but he always works hard in a place that others can't see.

Although he couldn't see it from the outside, judging from Shen Qiu's perception, he had already achieved a great deal of ghost shadow and demon skills, and this getaway was becoming more and more wonderful.

"Come out."

Shen Qiu looked at the codex in front of him, and after a few breaths, he spoke.

On the edge of the bamboo forest, the old monk Zhenji, who was called to break the trace, was still wearing a monk's robe with the Japanese script and a bamboo hat, and when he looked at Shen Qiu, there was a look of awe in his eyes.

In the eyes of others, Shen Qiu was just defeating a half-step heavenly supernatural master, and in the Central Plains, it was not big news.

There are few heavenly lists here, but there are still some half-step heavenly lists.

What's more, with Shen Qiu's current state of being "famous all over the world", one more or one less of these achievements will not affect his prestige, especially in the eyes of a person like Zhang Lan who has followed Shen Qiu all year round, it is even more ordinary.

Shen Qiu was able to arrest the Immortal Monarch Divine Soul, and now he has overturned a half-step heavenly list.

Sprinkle the water.

But among all the people who participated in the attack on Guizang Mountain Villa that night, probably only Monk Zhenji saw through the hidden truth under the exterior.

He's from Dongying.

That place is now a world of ghosts, a group of demons dancing wildly, before escaping to Middle-earth, the monk Zhenji held the Buddhist tradition of Mount Hiei, and was also a famous Buddhist master in the land of Dongying.

He knew better than everyone what terrifying power a Wind Thunder God and Ghost Spirit who had been cultivated to Dacheng had.

On that night, what I saw and heard in Guizang Villa, this wind and thunder god who resists wind and thunder, even in the land of Dongying, where the demons are dancing wildly, is definitely a big demon king.

It was the Penglai disciples, those arrogant Yin Yang Masters, who had to gather together in order to repel their opponents.

As for kills... Impossible.

The strength of a great demon king can never be resisted by ordinary people.

Because of this, Shen Qiu in front of him, in his opinion, has been classified into the category of "non-human".

When Monk Zhenji was young, he also studied Buddhism in Middle-earth, and he knew that in this magical land, there were some martial artists who were revered as "Heavenly Bang".

It means a samurai who is the power of heaven and earth.

Although Shen Qiu is not on the list of heavens in front of him, in Zhenji's opinion, he is no different from those peerless powerhouses, and he has the ability to kill ghosts and punish evil, and he is definitely worthy of the name of "the person who saves the world".

"It's so late at night, why doesn't the master go to sleep?"

Shen Qiu sat on the stone chair, looked at Zhenji who came over, and asked softly.

The old monk was silent.

He stepped forward, respectfully knelt on the ground, and performed the most formal five-body bow of Buddhism, he put his forehead on the ground, and begged in pure Chinese:

"Old monk, please the Great Sword Saint of the Heavenly Heavens, save all living beings in my Dongying!"

On Dongying's side, the most noble title for a samurai is the "Great Sword Saint", unless he is a great master of swordsmanship who is truly recognized by the world, he is not allowed to bear this name.

In front of the Great Sword Saint, the word "Yutian" was added, indicating the recognition of Shen Qiu's perception in the heart of the old monk Zhenji.

Of course, it is also because of the unique secondary and second customs of the Dongying people, they always like to add some messy titles to the name of the person.

This prayer made Shen Qiu's gaze move away from the hand in front of him.

He looked at the old monk at his feet and said:

"If the master cultivates the Dharma, he can be recognized by the Yuanfa Zen Master, and if he wants to be a person who is profound in the Dharma, he should know the truth that 'all living beings are suffering, and turning back is the shore'.

Don't hide it from the master, Shen thinks that I can't even save myself, how can I still have the strength to save the sentient beings of the Japanese kingdom again? The goal I set for myself on this path is just to defeat Penglai and release the shackles of sentient beings. ”

Shen Qiu stretched out his hand to help him, and the strength of the Forgetchuan Exercise forced the old monk to stand up.

He looked into Zhenji's eyes and said seriously:

"But sentient beings want to turn back to the shore and have to save themselves."

"But on the soil of our country, all ghosts are rampant, humanity does not exist, if there is no saint to save me, I am afraid..."

The old monk's face was difficult, but he was interrupted by Shen Qiu's outstretched hand, he pointed to the wooden house in the forest that was still screaming, and said:

"The woman there fell into the abyss with determination in exchange for the ability to protect.

What she protects in her heart is her own relatives, and if the master wants to save your country and the world, he will regard all the beings of the country as siblings. ”

Shen Qiu said to the old monk seriously and seriously:

"If you don't go to hell, who will?"

The old monk Zhenji blinked his eyes and said to Shen Qiu:

"But it is the power of evil spirits that comes out of darkness and seduces people's hearts, and how can a good man be tainted by it?"

"The words of the master remind me of those, romantic and naïve people who were born in peacetime ... Well, I'm not sarcastic, I used to be like that.

It's also like the stupid people in this river and lake, who are stubborn in some stupid confrontations and are ruthlessly killed by us and others. ”

Shen Qiu tucked the codex into his sleeve and said:

"I have a... Younger sister.

She has also faced choices that are as difficult as those of the master.

Between what she loved in her heart and what she hated, she chose the latter, in exchange for strength, to save the former.

One of my elders, the most powerful warrior in this land, also told me.

If you have mud on your hands, don't rush to wipe them, just keep walking, drip through the mud, walk into the sun, the mud will be dried, fall off, and your hands will be clean again. ”

Shen Qiu crossed over the old monk, and his voice lingered in the old monk's ears.

But if you don't move forward, you can only wallow in the mud, and finally drown in the mud with despair.

It doesn't matter if you see the mire and get your hands dirty. But if you can't see the sun at the end of the swamp, that's the end of it.

You see, I'm still wallowing in the mire, Master, I really can't save you, but maybe, in fact, you are stronger than you think, and you don't need me to save you? ”

"Perhaps, like my sister, or like the eldest lady of the Lu family in front of you, you can pick up the things you hate and turn them into candles that bring strength.

Burn it out, bring that ray of light back to Dongying, and use it as a torch to illuminate hell. ”

Shen Qiu walked into the bamboo forest, and in the sound of the night breeze blowing the bamboo, he turned his head and smiled at the old monk Zhenji, and said:

"We're all fighting, we're not stopping, and maybe, in the future, we can meet again in the sun at the end of that swamp.

At that time, the master must tell me the story of your battle in Dongying, and I will also tell you the story of how we Middle-earth warriors crushed despair.

Those two stories will be exciting. ”
