Chapter 275: Fire in the Clouds
After entering the kitchen, I washed the rice and put it in the pot, and sat down on the chair next to me.
Not to mention, the old man did a pretty good job, and he knew how to enjoy it.
Because of the gas stove, it is not cold for me to sit by the fire, I am bored with my mobile phone, and the days are only a little more than a month before the end of the year.
Suddenly, the flames of the gas stove became restless, as if something was attracting it, and it popped and popped.
Then all of a sudden, the fire of the gas stove left the gas stove and fell to the ground, taking on the form of a man, and he knelt before me and said, "See the young master." ”
"Young master?" I stood up and looked at him warily, the sword slowly appearing in my hand.
The fire man continued: "Back to the young master, I am one of the four protectors of the Ghost Emperor, called Fire in the Clouds, and I specially ask the young master to go back in the name of the Ghost Emperor." ”
"Oni Crane told me to go back?"
I relaxed a lot when I heard that it was the ghost crane's subordinates, and if I calculated the time, it had been a month and a half since I left the Spirit Realm Cave Heaven, and even if his ghost crane did not reply in strength, it should be about the same, and it was reasonable to appear in the world, but this young master ......
I said, "I didn't join the ghost gate, and I didn't worship the ghost crane as a teacher, why do you call me young master?" ”
"This is the meaning of the Ghost Emperor, if the young master is unwilling to go back, the Ghost Emperor can give the young master another two months, and the young master must go back after the New Year, otherwise the Ghost Emperor will be angry, and the villain may be punished at that time." Cloud in the fire said.
I waved my hand: "I know, you can step back first, my pot of rice is still waiting to be eaten." ”
"That's easy to do." The fire in the cloud went straight into the gas stove, and the rice was steamed within two minutes.
After the meal was served, I brought it to the living room, and then asked Xu Lao and them to come over for dinner.
Xu Lao asked me with a smile how this rice steamed so quickly, and I said that you can't count it as old.
Xu Lao said that he couldn't figure it out, he couldn't see everything about me, I laughed dryly and said that I used the fire of the five elements in my body to steam the rice, so fast.
Xu Lao nodded and asked me to use my ability carefully in the future, after all, it is not an ordinary fire, the fire of the five elements is strictly the fire of heaven, the fire of nirvana, and it was actually used by me to cook, which really convinced me.
I smiled, and Sanyan also knew that I was not an ordinary person, and laughed along, how to say about this meal, it was very pleasant, especially when I drank wine, although I drank it with Sanyan again throughout the whole process, but Xu Lao would also take a sip from time to time.
He also told me that he hadn't drunk much since he was forty, let alone at the wine table, and this time he made an exception for me.
After he was full of wine and food, Sanyan couldn't walk anymore, after all, at least 70% of the two bottles were dried up by him.
After throwing him on the bed, I told Mr. Xu about the fire in the clouds, and Mr. Xu said that since the matter is a foregone conclusion, let's face the reality, life is like flowing water.
People can't fight to obey themselves, so obedience is the best choice.
I nodded, then took out the prophecy scroll from my bag, and was about to open it, Xu Lao grabbed my hand and said, "I'm here, don't open it first, and you can open it again after I'm gone, because I'm afraid that I'm someone else pretending." ”
"Don't you know if you're pretending to be yourself?" I asked.
"You don't understand." Xu Lao stood up and looked at the courtyard with his hands behind his back and said: "Recently, there has been a thousand-faced scholar in the rivers and lakes, and there is also a person who can control people's hearts, they are all old foundations of the Wumen, it can be said that the Wumen wants to take the ghost gate in one fell swoop while the ghost crane has not recovered its vitality." ”
"Is the Wumen so powerful?"
"Yes." Xu Lao turned around and said, "Is the ghost gate strong?" ”
"Powerful." I said without hesitation: "There are four protectors of the Ghost Gate, water, fire, earth and wind, each of the four protectors has special abilities, and the strength of kung fu is not below you and me." ”
"In addition to the four protectors, the Ghost Gate also has two guardian messengers, the Eight King Kongs, including the Five Elements Banner Master who has been eliminated by the Ghost Crane."
"Five Elements Banner Master?" My heart fluttered and said, "At the beginning, I was the master of the Five Elements Banner, could it be that I was all from the Ghost Gate?" ”
"It used to be one of the forces of the ghost gate, but because of the great war between the witch gate and the ghost gate hundreds of years ago, a wrong strategy of the Five Elements Banner caused the ghost gate to be beaten by the ghost gate, so the ghost crane was angry and removed the five elements flag from the ghost gate, which led to the later Five Elements Flag, but the movement of the Five Elements Flag has always been known by the ghost crane, and the original ghost gate can be inseparable from the ghost gate as the sun is in the sky, not to mention that now the ghost gate is crumbling and the witch gate is recuperating and returning again."
I smacked my tongue when I heard it: "This means that the ghost crane asked me to go back to be the young master in order for me to fight against the Wumen?" ”
"There is part of the reason, if you want to completely disintegrate the other party, you need the Ten Directions Artifact, so both of them will desperately look for the Ten Directions Artifact, but the Ghost Crane is currently by his side, in addition to the four major protectors, the left and right envoys and the Eight King Kongs have disappeared, so he may let you look for the Ten Directions Artifact more."
"What the hell is the Ten Directions Artifact? Is it strong? ”
Xu Lao said: "Strong, the ten-party artifact will change with the change of the holder's ability, for example, your current sword should be made of the original Xuantie Rod, right?" Now you can't see where your sword is powerful, but as you become stronger, your sword will have the power to open the world, this is just a ten-party artifact, if all ten are used by one person, then this person has the ability to turn things around. ”
"Can you wipe out red-eyed zombies?" I asked.
"Yes."
"Nope." I stood up suddenly: "With the strength of the ghost crane, if he gets the artifact of the ten directions, he will definitely not bother to help Yin Xiujuan relieve the side effects of that elixir, so I ......"
"Let me tell you about the situation of the witch gate." Xu Lao suddenly changed the topic.
"Okay." I agreed, knowing that the other side can win all battles.
"There are twelve warlocks in the Wumen, each of whom has some strange abilities, such as the Thousand-Faced Scholar can turn into anyone, but this person who has just appeared recently can rely on a small paper clip to control anyone's mind, and there is also a drunken person, but he can kill people with alcohol, which is similar to your sword with the imperial qi, after all, there are less than ten people in this world who can control the qi."
"Wait a minute." I interrupted Xu Lao and said, "Second master, is the paper clip you said the same as the one on you?" ”
