Chapter 125: Ghost Waterfall
This trip is long, Qiao Sanye said that it will take at least three days to drive from Jingyun Mountain to Ghost Waterfall, which is not counting the time to rest and catch up with the mountain road.
It just so happened that I still had two big questions in my heart, and I tried to say them with a lot of spare time on the road.
I asked Yunshang why she had to go with us, after all, I didn't believe it, she liked to stick to me, just because of fate.
Yunshang said that the reason why she left Shejia Valley was to find a "very powerful" person to play with.
I said, I'm not a particularly powerful person, in terms of cultivation, there are too many people who are stronger than me in the industry, in terms of means, I have only been in the industry for a few years, and many people who are not from the cultivation of words are also stronger than me, but why did you fall in love with me?
Yunshang said, my cultivation is indeed not top-notch, but fortunately, I am the same age as her, and I can have fun, and my cultivation is not high, but I am a master with a high cultivation, as long as she follows me, she can often see my master.
I analyzed it, Yunsheng's words should be half-truths and half-truths, her purpose in leaving Shejia Valley may indeed be to find a person with superb cultivation, but it is difficult to say what she is looking for such a person.
What do you say, just find such a person to play with her, do you believe this, I definitely don't believe it anyway.
After that, I found another opportunity to ask Master, why do you care so much about the whereabouts of Tianzong, is it really just because of the Master's deathbed entrustment?
At first, the master did not answer this question directly, but only said that only by finding Tianzong could he find the remaining three bone wat roots.
It wasn't until one night, when we stayed at a small hotel on the side of the road, and Master and I were in the same room, and seeing that no one else was there, Master told me the truth.
Master said that when the people of the Heavenly Sect went to sea, it was likely that they were looking for a place called the "Four Heavens", and foreign cultivators also called that place the "Spirit Domain".
Legend has it that as long as you can get there, even if you don't need to practice, you can obtain Heavenly Creation, and fly to the heavenly realm with your physical body.
Attaining positive results has always been the lifelong pursuit of cultivators, and the place called the Four Heavens has also become a holy place in their eyes.
Whether it is the Sifang Heaven or the Spirit Domain, it is a concept that only existed in the early forties of the last century, and the world did not know the existence of this place before.
In recent decades, Master has consulted a large number of materials to try to find evidence of the existence of the Four Heavens, but he has not found any clues, but he found that the concept of the Four Heavens appeared at the same time as Francis Brown. T. Lenny corresponds to the chronological codification of the Cthulhu Mythos.
Therefore, Master speculated that the Four Heavens were probably a false concept made up by someone based on the godhead system in mythological stories after reading the Cthulhu Mythos.
In other words, this spiritual realm, which has been regarded as a sacred place by spiritual circles at home and abroad in recent decades, most likely does not exist at all.
But who made up such a lie, and who spread it all over the world, remains a mystery to this day.
The point is that every cultivator who firmly believes in the existence of the Four Heavens is like being brainwashed, and he has nothing to ask for in this life, and he does not hesitate to give up everything to find the Four Heavens, which is like madness.
Master didn't know what kind of power caused those cultivators to become so crazy, he just remembered that in the years before Tianzong went to sea, there was an extremely mysterious monk in the cultivation circle in China, that person wore an iron mask all day long, and his whole body was covered with black robes, no one had seen his true face, and no one even knew what was hidden under that dark black robe.
In the same year that Tianzong went to sea, this mysterious monk was also missing, and then Tianzong had no news, and he never appeared in the industry again.
Master suspected that the reason why Tianzong went to sea was most likely instigated by this person. Including the death of my ancestor, it may also be related to this person.
I couldn't help but ask, "Master, have you ever seen this mysterious person?" ”
Master first shook his head, and then asked me, "Do you remember Chai Zongyuan?" ”
"Remember, wasn't it thanks to him that Master was able to accept me at the beginning?"
"He'd seen the monk. According to Chai Zongyuan, as early as that era, this person's cultivation had reached an unfathomable realm, and he was able to compete with Zhang Zhenren back then, so I thought that the death of your ancestor was related to this person. ”
"But Master, why haven't I heard you talk about these things before?"
"I see that you are young, and if you talk too much, I am afraid that you will think about it all day long, and you will have too many distracting thoughts in your heart, which is not conducive to cultivation. Now that you have grown up and your temperament is stable, I dare to tell you these things. ”
"Master, will I also go to sea in the future?"
"Let's wait until you open the fourth spiritual sense, the danger overseas is no less than that at home, and you must have a high enough cultivation foundation to ensure your life without worry."
"What is the sea like, I've never seen the sea when I've grown so big."
"O sea...... How to say it, the sea is like the human heart, it carries the most magnificent epic of human civilization, but also carries the deepest fear of human beings. When you get on the boat, you'll be able to appreciate its charm. ”
Seeing that it was not too early, Master helped me arrange the bedding and told me to hurry up and go to bed until I had to hurry up tomorrow morning.
After this night, we spent another day driving to arrive at the mountain where the ghost waterfall is located, there is no road in the mountain, Qiao Sanye took everyone to wander in the dense forest for more than ten hours, and finally found a small waterfall with a width of only about ten meters in the depths of the dense forest.
This place is a bit similar to the kidnapping alley that Master took me to back then, from the waterfall to the surrounding woods, all exuding a gloomy atmosphere that makes people's pores tighten.
Yunshang said that it was not yin qi, but another aura that she had never seen before.
Under the waterfall is a pool wrapped with stones, under the guidance of Qiao Sanye, we stepped on the big bluestone by the pond all the way forward, and arrived at the bottom of the waterfall.
Boom......
A huge bubble floated from the bottom of the pool, reached the surface of the water, and then exploded in the air with a long, muffled sound.
I subconsciously looked into the mouth of the pool, and saw a black shadow faintly appearing in the place where the blister had just burst, and when I looked closely, it was actually a female ghost sunk in the pool, and when I stared at it, it also pointed the pair of black hole holes at me.
Master patted me on the shoulder: "There are a lot of ghosts in this pool, they are the guardians of the Ghost Waterfall, and they have been guarding the entrance of the Ghost Waterfall for thousands of years. ”
It's really strange to raise ghosts to come to the door.
At this time, Qiao Sanye took out an unedged iron knife from his arms, and knocked it three times on the bluestone near the waterfall, and the sound was two heavy and one light, like some kind of code.
