Chapter Eighty-Nine: Lei Gang's Apocalypse
I didn't ask in detail, whether I guessed it or not, and I couldn't say anything about what was going to happen next, because that would probably change the trajectory of history.
When the fifth leader picked up the wooden sword that had fallen to the ground, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately used the wooden sword to rummage through the pile of ashes that the corpse had turned into, and after looking for it for a while, his face turned iron-blue.
Seeing this, I hurriedly asked, "Dao Chief, what's wrong with you?" ”
The fifth leader didn't answer me immediately, and after staring at the ashes on the ground for a long time, he snorted extremely unhappily: "It's poor and careless, that thing has escaped." ”
"What? Escaped, this ...... How is this possible? ”
"Hmph, what's impossible, that corpse fetus can hide in the belly of a dead corpse and deceive me for more than half a month, it does have some ability."
I'm more taboo about the corpse fetus, that thing is really disgusting, and now I heard that the corpse fetus not only did not die but escaped, and I had no idea for a while, so I had to ask the fifth chief: "That...... So what now? ”
"What else can I do, this thing is extremely good at hiding, and there is no other way now, let's go back to the fifth village first!" The fifth chief's face was not very good-looking, and the tone of his voice was not very good, but I didn't care.
By the time we returned to the fifth village (that is, the wooden building in front of the mountain pass) from the Guillotine Slope, the sky had completely darkened, and the heavy clouds covered the sky, so black that we could not see the five fingers, and only the residence of Master Yuantong of the two wooden buildings was shining with bright candlelight, like a lonely lighthouse, standing on the edge of the darkness of the ocean.
As soon as we returned, Master Yuantong came out of his residence, with an unconcealed worry between his eyebrows, and a trace of anxiety, as if he had something urgent to find the fifth master, but when he saw the unconscious Ah Guang, this anxiety was suppressed by him.
"Amitabha, Brother Dao, what's going on? Ah Guang he ......" Master Yuantong looked at Ah Guang and asked strangely.
The fifth chief snorted coldly, as if he didn't want to see Master Yuantong, and said in a stiff tone: "You won't see it yourself!" ”
A kind intention touched the nail instead, Master Yuantong was not angry, and then said: "I watched Ah Guang Lingtai dyed turbid, the black qi collapsed and did not disperse, and the soul fire was even more dim, presumably possessed by evil things, the poor monk has a lotus petal blessed by incense, which can help him dispel the evil qi." ”
As he spoke, Master Yuantong took out a small black wooden box from the sleeve of the monk's robe and handed it to the fifth chief.
The fifth leader grabbed the wooden box and snorted: "You know each other." ”
Then he immediately opened the lid of the box, took out a dried lotus petal the length of his little finger, lit it, and brought it to Ah Guang's nose.
The green smoke curled, and the wisps of smoke penetrated into Ah Guang's nostrils as if they were spiritual, and soon, some faint black gas began to rise above Ah Guang's head, converging into a cluster in the air.
When the lotus burned out, Ah Guang's face turned from black to pale, and at the same time, his eyelids also trembled rapidly, and it seemed that the lotus flower had taken effect.
"That's it!" The fifth chief wiped the beads of sweat from his head and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Master Yuantong also showed a smile on his face, recited the Buddha name, and then waved his sleeves lightly, and the black qi condensed in the air suddenly dissipated.
I saw my eyelids jumping, and my heart said that my feeling was really right, this old monk's ability would definitely not be weaker than the fifth Dao Chang, I really don't know how these two senior bosses of the Xuanmen could live in seclusion in such a remote place.
Although the evil qi in Ah Guang's body had been dispelled, he did not wake up immediately, and the fifth Dao Leader carried him into the inner room and said to me and Master Yuantong at the same time, "Please! ”
In the fifth Chang An Don Aguang, Master Yuantong and I lit the lamps, in this era the lighting is all candles and oil lamps, there are a lot of oil lamps in the fifth village, we only light half of them, and soon the fifth village will be as clear as Master Yuantong's residence.
My wounds had not healed, and I had experienced a terrible change in the mass grave, and I was already exhausted, and I could not care about being rude, so I sat down on my ass.
Master Yuantong smiled faintly, sat down next to me, and asked about Ah Guang.
There was no need to hide these things during the day, and the Fifth Dao Master didn't say that these things couldn't be said, so I told Master Yuantong about what happened during the day.
After listening to this, Master Yuantong's slender white eyebrows shrank suddenly, and his face became solemn, and at the same time fell into a deep groan.
After a while, he asked with some uncertainty: "Reporter, are you sure that thunder punishment is really just a grave that split open a mass grave?" ”
I nodded affirmatively, and said in my heart that this is what I saw with my own eyes, so what is there to be sure about?
Receiving my affirmative reply, Master Yuantong took a deep breath, the solemn color on his face became more and more intense, I wondered in my heart, why did Master Yuantong also have this kind of expression, could it be that he, like the Fifth Dao Chief, had long known that something would happen to the mass grave on Guillotine Slope?
"Master ......"
Just as I was about to ask, the door of the inner room was opened, and the fifth chief walked out and interrupted me with a remark: "Monk, do you know what happened over there?" ”
Hearing this, Master Yuantong nodded, I thought that the two of them would definitely talk about the secrets of some mass graves next, but I didn't expect them to just say this, and then there was no follow-up.
This made me a little depressed, and just as I was feeling bored, the fifth leader's gaze suddenly turned to me, and asked, "Little brother, I haven't asked for your name yet." ”
I don't know why the Fifth Dao Leader suddenly remembered to ask my name, and hurriedly said: "Dao Chief, don't dare to ask for advice, my name is Zhang Ziyi, you can also call me a reporter." ”
The fifth chief nodded, and then said: "Well, Zhang Xiaoyou is a talent, and he has such a calm bearing at a young age, he is by no means an ordinary person, dare to ask where Xiaoyou is from?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, but soon understood that because of the events of the day, this old way must have regarded me as a peer. I smiled bitterly in my heart, and hurriedly explained: "Daoist, you misunderstood, I am not from the Xuanmen, I ......"
I was about to continue, but suddenly I realized that I was really just an ordinary person, but since I received that letter, I have changed a lot. Yang Lao Dao's teachings have taken me to an unusual path, and after getting the Taiye's Codex, I can be counted as the next generation of the Taiye Zhang Tianxing, so now I should be regarded as half a Xuanmen person, but I am not a person of this era.
Seeing that I stopped talking suddenly, the fifth long gaze froze, and Master Yuantong suddenly smiled at this time: "It seems that Zhang Xiaoyou has remembered something, if the old man is not wrong, Zhang Xiaoyou should be a disciple of the Zhengqianmen of Tiantong Mountain, right?" ”
Hearing the three words 'Zhengqianmen', I was suddenly shocked, and at the same time a little excited, after I woke up, what I saw and heard was very unfamiliar, especially when I learned that I had returned to a strange era a hundred years ago, this frightening strangeness was even stronger, and now I finally heard a relatively familiar name, how can I not be excited, but how did Master Yuantong know that I had something to do with Zhengqianmen?
I was puzzled, so I couldn't help but ask, "Master, why do you say that?" ”
"Amitabha, it seems that the old man guessed well!" Seeing that I didn't deny it, Master Yuantong smiled slightly, and then said: "Zhang Xiaoyou don't need to be surprised, in fact, Lao Wei also came to this conclusion from what you have. ”
"What's on me?"
"Yes, when Ah Guang and I found you, you had a sword in your hand."
"What?" I stood up and asked excitedly, "Master, what you said is true?" ”
"Hehe, the monks don't speak, it's naturally true!" Master Yuantong still had a warm expression on his face, but the fifth Dao Master on the side suddenly snorted after listening to Master Yuantong say the words 'monks don't talk to monks', and at the same time looked disdainful and disdainful.
I wasn't in the mood to pay attention to this, and finally heard the news of the apocalypse, how could I let it go, and hurriedly asked: "Master, where is that sword now?" ”
"Sword, what sword?" Seeing that we were going back and forth and talking endlessly, the Fifth Dao Elder was already impatient, and without waiting for Master Yuantong to answer my words, he took the first step and asked.
Master Yuantong didn't mind, and still said in a warm tone: "If the poor monk didn't admit his mistake, it should be the Heavenly Apocalypse Sword, one of the eight artifacts of the Xuanmen. ”
I've only heard that the Heavenly Apocalypse Sword is a Daomen Six Artifact, but I've never heard of the Xuanmen Eight Artifacts, but at the moment, these have little to do with me, and I don't particularly care about it, but the Fifth Dao Commander is different.
After he heard the name of the Apocalypse, he immediately exclaimed: "What are you talking about, the Apocalypse Sword of the Eight Divine Weapons, in the hands of this kid?" ”
At the same time, the fifth chief looked at me in amazement, and that look seemed to be eager to see me inside and out.
Master Yuantong shook his head and said: "No, the Apocalypse Sword seen by the poor monk is a little different from the rumored Apocalypse Sword, which is full of a thunderous power for some reason, Zhang Xiaoyou was unconscious at the time, and the hand he held the sword was burned by the power of the thunder and almost became charcoal. ”
As soon as Master Yuantong's voice fell, the fifth long rub stood up, and hurriedly walked into the back hall without saying a word, the apocalypse is my sword, accompanying me through so many dangers, I have long regarded it as a partner, and in a hurry, I immediately followed in.
After passing through several twists and turns of the corridor, we came to a very solemnly furnished room, in which the incense case was full of candles, the four walls of the room were hung with all kinds of curtains with strange runes, and on the top of the incense case hung a statue of a god who could not see the calendar, solemn, but at this time my eyes were all attracted by a thunderous black sword behind the incense burner.
Although there are some changes, I still recognize at a glance that this is my Apocalypse Sword, but at this moment, the dragon scales on the handle of the Apocalypse Sword are all stretched, like an enraged dragon, and the dragon eyes at the tail of the sword handle are shining with bright thunder, and the jet-black sword body has not changed much, it still looks so simple, but there are arc jumps on the sword body, flickering and flickering, which looks very dazzling.
I was very excited to find the Apocalypse again, but before I could get the sword, the fifth Dao Master, who was also very excited, couldn't wait to rush to the incense case, raised his hand and grabbed the Apocalypse.
"Brother Dao, don't ......" Master Yuantong hurriedly spoke to stop it, but unfortunately it was too late, the fifth Dao Chief's hand had already grabbed the Apocalypse, but at this moment, more than a dozen brilliant thunderbolts suddenly erupted from the sword body, and suddenly spread outward, one of which just swept in front of my forehead, and I immediately smelled a scorching smell, and the hair on my forehead was burned.
I was so frightened that I shrank back, so there was no accident, but the fifth Dao Chang who was in the center of the thunder arc burst was not so lucky, the moment the thunder broke out, there was a faint white light flashing on his body, but soon that layer of white light was swept away by the thunder arc.
The terrible thunder lasted for two or three seconds, until the fifth Dao Chang in front of the incense case was split upside down and flew out, the surging thunder dissipated, and the Apocalypse returned to the state just now, on the other hand, the Fifth Dao Chang had already been scorched black, his hair stood on end, and he collapsed to the ground and convulsed continuously.
Master Yuantong and I hurriedly stepped forward to check, but fortunately, the fifth long path was profound, but it only suffered some hardships and did not hurt the roots.
Master Yuantong picked up the fifth Dao Chief, who was still trembling, and sighed lightly: "Amitabha, Brother Dao, you are too impatient, why don't you listen to the poor monk?" What this artifact contains is not an ordinary thunderbolt, but a legendary reincarnation thunder that only exists between the underworld, the underworld and the yang world, how dare you touch it directly? ”
"You... You... You ......" The corners of the fifth long mouth twitched, and he looked at Master Yuantong hatefully, you were stunned for a long time, but you couldn't say a complete sentence.
Seeing that even a big guy like the Fifth Dao Leader was so miserable by the reincarnation Lei Gang leaked by the Apocalypse, I didn't dare to act rashly, I didn't have the cultivation of the Fifth Dao Chief, maybe I would be killed directly if I touched it.
But what to do? And how did the apocalypse come to be like this? Does this have something to do with the Valley of Burial?
I remembered that when I first crossed the Burial Valley, the Heavenly Apocalypse Sword did devour a large number of reincarnation Lei Gang at a critical moment, otherwise it would be impossible for the Taoist priest and I to reach the end of the Burial Valley alive, could it really be because of this?
Seeing that I hesitated, Master Yuantong persuaded: "Zhang Xiaoyou, Lao Gao knows the importance of the Apocalypse to you, but you have also seen it, with the current state of this sword, it is impossible for you to pick it up, if you don't believe Lao Gao, you might as well take apart the gauze on your hand and take a look." ”
I had long been very curious about the injury of my right hand, and when I heard Master Yuantong say this, I did not hesitate to remove the gauze immediately.
After seeing the injuries on my hands, even though I was mentally prepared, I couldn't help but gasp.
