The two of them had no clue about it, and they lived near the cave for a full year, from spring to winter, and each time they found hope, they were beaten back to their original shape by reality. But neither of them gave up, Sima Qing didn't give up because of Sima Gu, and Sima Gu didn't give up just because he had lost his goal.

Sima Gu is no longer the same as before, and immediately rushes to the cliff cave to investigate after waking up every day, but lives the kind of life of eating and waiting for death, and he doesn't even bother to move to fetch water, everything is taken care of by Sima Qing, who is not his son, but seems to be a son.

The days of peace passed day by day, Sima Gu and Sima Qing, no one thought of breaking this peace, but at this time, someone who changed the fate of the two appeared.

Wei Chi blurted out: "Chang Hongzhi? ”

That's right, this person is Chang Hongzhi, a man who seems to be able to appear anywhere and in front of anyone.

Chang Hongzhi, who was dressed like a tourist, suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, and it would take at least two days to hike here from a place where there was a road, but Chang Hongzhi's face was not tired, and the shoes he was wearing were surprisingly clean, it was obvious that he was not coming, as if he had fallen from the sky.

Chang Hongzhi seemed to be very familiar with the two of them, sitting directly on the rock next to him, looking into the distance, and not looking at Sima Gu and Sima Qing, who were looking at him, like this, after nearly a minute, Chang Hongzhi suddenly said: "If you want to get something, you have to pay something of the same value." ”

Suddenly, there was no brain, and Sima Gu and Sima Qing were confused.

Chang Hongzhi said again: "The magic of corpse control, no, it should be said that it is a talent, not everyone can have it, it depends on fate, some people don't have that life, some people do, do you remember, Taoism has a necessary experience to become an immortal is to cross the tribulation, the so-called crossing the tribulation, is not so simple in the superficial sense, but to die once." ”

When Sima Qing repeated Chang Hongzhi's words, Wei Chiran said again: "Die once, yes, it seems that it really has something to do with dying once, but have you ever died?" ”

Wei Chiran looked at Xie Meng and asked, Xie Meng nodded slightly and said: "I have died, in the water tomb, the moment I fell into the gap, I should have died, so I had that strange feeling at that time." ”

Wei Chiran looked at the torture technique in the distance again: "He is the same, he was killed in Longxi, and then resurrected, so he has that ability." ”

Hou Wan thought of a common denominator: "There are also strange beasts, there are water rats in the water tomb, and there is the kind of giant snake in the dragon stream that is mistaken for a dragon." ”

Speaking of which, Hou Wan and Wei Chiran both looked at Sima Qing, so what strange beasts existed in or around that cliff cave?

Xie Meng said an answer at this time that surprised Hou Wan and Wei Chi: "Zombies." ”

Hou Wan was stunned: "Zombies belong to alien beasts? ”

Wei Chiran shook his head and said, "Strictly speaking, zombies belong to the category of spirits, right?" ”

Xie Meng said: "Water rats and giant snakes are also spirits, so do you think zombies belong to foreign beasts?" The word beast refers to a living thing, a person is a kind of living thing, and the zombie that a person becomes after death naturally belongs to a strange beast, these are not my inductions, but the record of the capture in the Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map. ”

Wei Chiran and Hou Wan were surprised for a long time, even a person like Hou Wan, who grew up in a lonely army since childhood, was the first time he had heard that the hunt actually classified zombies as foreign beasts.

In other words, the incorruptible female corpses that Sima Gu and Sima Qing found in the sarcophagus were actually zombies, and what Chang Hongzhi said about dying once meant that the two of them took out the zombie in the ninth cliff cave, and then lay down in the sarcophagus, and died once in it, if they could be resurrected, they could obtain the ability to control the corpse.

Sounds ridiculous, right? A person with a normal mind would never do that, let alone what Chang Hongzhi, a person who suddenly appeared, said.

But Sima Gu and Sima Qing are not normal people, and they both have the attitude of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so they decided to do what Chang Hongzhi said.

Wei Chi Ran took a deep breath when he heard this, although he understood, but he couldn't understand why people were so persistent, especially those who did strange things, just like Sima Gu, why did he have to find the corpse control technique? Is it because of what he's going to do? No, he just set a goal for himself, just like someone said to himself, I have to run 3 kilometers a day, I must stick to it.

When Sima Gu hesitated in front of the sarcophagus, Sima Qing took the initiative to ask himself to try first, and told Sima Gu that this person who he thought was the only one who was good to him in this life, if he died, then Sima Gu should not try again.

Before Sima Qing entered the sarcophagus, he once said to Sima Gu: "You must also be good to others in the future." ”

What Sima Qing thought at the time was that a good person like Sima Gu was a good person read in the book, and such a good person should have a good reward, while Sima Qing thought that he was not good enough, if he was good enough, he would not have those strange thoughts, and he would not even cherish his life, and Sima Gu was his savior, so he hoped that Sima Gu would be good.

Sima Qing is not stupid, nor confused, he is very sober, but when he entered the sarcophagus and lay down in the potion, he didn't think too much, it can be said that his brain is blank.

After the sarcophagus was opened again, Sima Qing found that he was still alive, and Sima Gu was standing next to him, looking at him dumbfounded.

Let's not talk about whether there is air in the closed sarcophagus, even if the potion does not drown people, it will choke people, but Sima Qing actually survived, Sima Gu immediately decided that he would try it too, so he also lay down in the sarcophagus.

However, when Sima Gu lay down, at the moment when the sarcophagus lid was about to close, Sima Gu regretted it, and he began to bang on the sarcophagus, but it was too late, the potion choked into his lungs, coughed violently and died in the sarcophagus.

Sima Qing tried to save Sima Gu like crazy, but found that there were inexplicably more corpse control spells on his arms, and Chang Hongzhi, who had already left, appeared in front of him again.

Chang Hongzhi told him: "He is dead, you can't save him, the only thing I can help you now is to teach you how to use the corpse control technique, no, it is the talent that can temporarily control dead creatures." ”

Sima Qing didn't care about that, he carried Sima Gu's body and continued to walk out of the mountain, and Chang Hongzhi followed behind him, just like Sima Qing chased Sima Gu at the beginning, there was no dialogue, only hurried footsteps.

Finally, Sima Qing stopped, not only because he couldn't walk, but because he clearly knew that the Sima Gu he was carrying was dead.

After walking for such a long time, the person on his back still did not react, and he continued to walk forward without getting the results he wanted.

So, Sima Qing turned around, looked at Chang Hongzhi and asked, "Why did he die?" Why am I still alive? ”

Chang Hongzhi replied simply: "If you have to find the murderer, then I can only tell you that the murderer is fate." ”

Sima Qing just shook his head, he didn't understand.

Chang Hongzhi said again: "He is selfish towards you, not the saint you think, you actually have always understood this in your heart, but you just regard him as the last straw in your life, you know, if you can't hold this straw anymore, you really can't live, Sima Gu appeared in front of you at the right time, you treat him as a father, and use him as a pillar to support yourself to live, and he doesn't see you as a son connected by flesh and blood, if you can't read the ciphertext, he won't bring you here." ”

Chang Hongzhi also made it clear that if Sima Gu is really a good person, then the person who enters the sarcophagus for the first time should be Sima Gu, not Sima Qing, who volunteered.

Therefore, Sima Qing is a good person, Sima Gu's luck, and Sima Qing is a selfless person.

Doesn't Sima Qing understand? He understood, naturally understood, that he was just looking for someone similar to himself.

Chang Hongzhi taught Sima Qing how to use his own blood to control dead people and animals, and then gave him Xie Meng's contact information, telling Sima Qing, if you want to die, die, if you still want to cherish life, go to this person, this person will definitely be the person who understands you in the world.

Whoever has Xie Meng's mind-reading skills will be the most understanding person in the world, because you don't need to say anything, she will know everything.

In this way, Sima Qing found Xie Meng and got to know the criminal technique, but he still didn't have his own goal, what he did was just the criminal technique and what Xie Meng asked him to do, that's all, this is the only pillar for him to live.

Monster. Such a word popped up in Wei Chi's mind, and when Xie Meng read these two words, he only smiled slightly: "He himself knows very well that he is a monster." ”

When Wei Chi heard this, he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry." ”

Sima Qing said: "No need, you are very honest." ”

After Sima Qing finished speaking, he got up, walked away, walked to a puddle of water, and stirred the water with his fingers like a child.

Next is Yun Jian, the swordsman who broke the Golden Gate, what is his story?

Xie Meng looked at Yun Jian who was patrolling in the distance: "Yun Jian is a martial arts wizard, he was born in the Broken Golden Gate since he was a child, and his father is a well-known person in the Broken Golden Gate, and he is also known as a living knife by the Broken Golden Gate. ”

Hou Wan looked surprised: "Yun Jian's father is a living knife?" ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Why is it called a living knife?" Because he's very good with a knife? ”

Hou Wandao: "No, he doesn't know kung fu......"

Yun Jian was born in the Broken Golden Gate family, that is to say, from the day the Broken Golden Gate existed, the Yun family became its disciples, and it was passed down from generation to generation. But the world is impermanent, and when it came to the generation of Yun Jian's father Yun Chuhao, a great change occurred in the family, that is, the two sons of the Yun family were dwarfs.

At that time, most people didn't know that it was called dwarfism, which was a disease that was caused by a variety of reasons, rather than being punished by God and doing unethical things. Therefore, even if the Yun family itself doesn't care about this kind of thing, they will whisper in the eyes of others and point fingers at the two dwarfistic sons of the Yun family.

Yun Chuhao and Yun Chuhong grew up in this environment, and it was impossible not to have a strong inferiority complex, they couldn't even go to a normal school, and could only be sent to the master of the Broken Golden Gate to learn cultural knowledge.

The master of the sword of the Broken Golden Gate must be a polymath to be the master, not only to teach cultural knowledge, but also to teach the basic knowledge of martial arts, and after graduating from the master of the sword, he will take an exam, and then determine whether the future of this lineage disciple will be literary or martial in the future.

Wen refers to the fact that in the future, like the master of the sword, he will teach others cultural knowledge and basic knowledge of martial arts.

Wu refers to the fact that you can become a Broken Golden Gate swordsman.

It's a pity that the two brothers, Yun Chuhao and Yun Chuhong, were ultimately determined to be unable to become swordsmen.
