Chapter 15: The Afterlife is Terrifying

With a loud bang, Kong Qiu suddenly woke up. He looked at the dark bedroom as if he was in a world away, and it was raining heavily in the sky at some point, and the thunder exploded, turning the sky into snow in an instant, and then quickly sinking into darkness.

Just as another thunderbolt sounded, by the light of lightning, Kong Qiu saw a dark figure standing in front of his window! He was covered with his face covered, and his eyes were staring at him! I don't know how long he had been standing here, and I didn't know how long he had been looking at Kong Qiu. Kong Qiu's whole body was agitated, and he shouted, almost instinctively attacking.

The flying soul instantly broke out of its body and rushed straight to the opponent's shrine in the middle palace. Although the practice days have not been long, Kong Qiu has successfully entered the shrine of Mao in the schoolwork sparring. Since practicing Soul Hunting, Flying Souls have replaced swords as his most accustomed offensive option.

This time it seemed to be going well, he skillfully found a way to break through, and entered the other party's shrine, and when he appeared, he was stunned by the scene of the middle palace that he had never seen before.

There were cranes flying in the sky, and white clouds floating on the ground. A green cow appears and disappears among the white clouds, nibbling on the grass that also disappears from time to time. In the distance, the mountains are faint, and the air is filled with the scent of unknown flowers and plants. The palace is like a temple, not tall but devoid of mortal atmosphere. A group of children are running and frolicking among the white clouds, carefree, and not a single adult can see them.

Kong Qiu froze in place. What kind of world is this Middle Palace, and why is there not even a single guard? In front of the temple gate, there are only two children playing chess. Did he really rush over and beat the two boys?

Someone tapped him on the shoulder behind him, and Concho turned abruptly, and a man who looked a few years older than him was smiling at him. This person is not very handsome, but he has an extraordinary temperament, which makes Kong Qiu can't help but admire.

The man laughed: "It's rude, it scares you in the middle of the night, but only when I dare to come." Thunderstorms are innate qi, ancient souls, and in such weather, the flying soul sense is limited. Otherwise, as soon as I enter the courtyard, your master will find out. ”

Only then did Kong Qiu remember who he was talking to, and he immediately took two steps back: "Late at night during a thunderstorm, what do you want to do when you stand in front of my window? What's more, this is my master's courtyard, and if you enter without telling me, you will be like a thief." ”

The man was not angry: "What do you mean by being like a thief, I've been a thief before, and I still care about being the same once?"

Kong Qiu thought for a moment and exclaimed, "You were the one who came to the master's room last time to rummage through things!"

The man nodded unashamedly and admitted: "This time, I came to ask the little brother for a favor." I want to borrow the sarong you just saw. There's something important to me in there. ”

Kong Qiu shook his head: "This is my family heirloom, how can I give it to others." Besides, this ......" Before his words fell, another thought came to his mind, and he took two steps back again: "You were the one who came to my house that night to steal the family tree!"

The man was stunned for a moment this time, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I thought you wouldn't think of it so quickly." You didn't fall asleep that night, and I knew you weren't human. It's no wonder that you are a descendant of Wei Ziqi, and you are connected to the King of Xu, so it is not surprising that you have this talent. ”

Kong Qiu couldn't help but drink: "Why the hell do you keep stealing things again and again? Why do you steal my family tree? Then why did you steal this garment, and what did you steal when you came to my master's house?"

The man put away his smile and looked solemn: "I'm not the kind of rooster and dog thief you think. Wealth and glory, I never look at it. What I do is not for me alone, nor for any one country, but for all human beings in the whole world, and for all living things. “

Kong Qiu was shocked by this person's immodesty, he always thought that from ancient times to the present, only Pangu who opened the heavens and Nuwa, who made up the heavens, could be qualified to say so. It has to be based on the fact that the legend is true. Among the remaining great men, including Zhou Gongdan, whom he admires the most, has only saved and educated most of the world, barbarian land, and there are still many people who do not obey the king. But even Zhou Gongdan believes that he has never thought of educating birds and beasts.

Kong Qiu thought for a long time and finally said: "What if...... You need to heal, and my master is a good doctor. Especially for people who are sick in their hearts......"

The man smiled understandingly: "I just borrowed the sarown, and I will return it to you after reading it." ”

Kong Qiu shook his head: "Don't say it's an ancestral thing, even if it's not, I haven't finished reading it." After saying that, he was stunned: What is this called?

The man sighed, "You don't even know what it is, it's called Soul Whisper." When your soul hunting technique reaches a certain level, you will also write. However, the person who left the sari was extremely high in soul hunting, and the amount of secret information left behind was huge. She writes with her own blood, which makes the secret language carry more accurate and authentic information. I need this information to fight the enemy. ”

Kong Qiu hesitated: "Although I don't feel like you are a bad person, I have to read it first and know what is here before I can lend it to you." ”

The man smiled bitterly and said, "Although you are talented, with your current realm, it will take at least half a year to look at this sartorie." I'm afraid I won't be able to wait that long. After speaking, he walked forward: "It's rude." ”

Kong Qiu felt a tremendous pressure coming towards him, just like when Master demonstrated the Soul Destroying Technique that day, he gritted his teeth, pushed his palms forward, and two arrows of light shot towards the man. At the same time, the body rotates, wanting to get out of the opponent's shrine as soon as possible. Back in reality, he can call Master to save him.

The man seemed to see Kong Qiu's intentions, and flew forward, the light arrow shot at him, the white light of the protective body dimmed, and he frowned: "Progress is so fast." At the same time, his hands were round, moving slowly, like flowing water, and Kong Qiu felt that the ground under his feet became like bronze rocks, and the retreat he had found was actually sealed. He looked down and saw a huge yin and yang gossip map stepping on his feet, and he leaned backwards, trying to find the next exit, but the gossip map was as if it was glued to his feet, and everywhere he went, it was like a rock, and it was difficult to escape.

The man said slowly, "Help me open the door, I will take the sari and leave, I will never hurt you." ”

Kong Qiu faintly felt that his body had risen from the bed, and he struggled to suppress his remaining consciousness and let himself go back to the bed. But his main soul was firmly clamped, and his consciousness became more and more blurred.

At this moment, he faintly heard an angry shout: "Who is it?" and the pressure suddenly lightened. The man let out a long sigh, and the gossip map disappeared.

When Kong Qiu's soul left, the man said loudly: "Whether you believe me or not, don't show that yarn to anyone, especially your master!

Kong Qiu shouted, and when he woke up, he was already two steps away from the bed. He was sweating profusely, panting and looking out the window, where the master was dressed in white and was fighting with the man in black. Kong Qiu hesitated, tucked the sari back into the baggage, and then opened the door.

At this time, Mao and Peng Yuer had already woken up and ran out of the door, and the man in black fought and retreated, reaching the foot of the wall. Like last time, he crouched down and jumped in the air.

The master shouted, spread his arms, and then slapped violently, and a faint white light shot out from between his palms, if it wasn't for the rainstorm that made the white light visible, even in the dark night, it might not be visible. But when the water hits the white light, it is like touching something tangible and qualitative, drawing the shape of a sharp sword in the air, and heading straight for the man in black in the air.

Kong Qiu stood in the rain in shock, he had never imagined that the moves he had used in the middle palace of the Divine Hall could be used in the outside world! Master had said that flying souls could not manifest in the outside world, unless the soul hunter had reached the realm of unity between heaven and man. Could it be that this is the truth of those spells during the Xiqi War?

The black-clothed man was in mid-air, there was no way to dodge, he drew a circle with one hand in the air, the rain was agitated, and it seemed to pause in the air, and it actually formed a faint yin and yang gossip map.

The barely visible sword pierced the faint yin-yang diagram and stabbed the man in black in the back. But the strength was already at the end of the crossbow, and the man in black fell in the air, and he put his other hand on the wall, and ran over the wall with difficulty.

Peng Keng jumped on the wall, looked at the rainstorm and darkness in front of him, and jumped down again, looking at his disciples. After a long time, he slowly said a sentence: "The future is terrifying." ”

The next day, Peng Keng asked them all to go out and ask if anyone was sick or missing. Peng Keng himself walked along the streets, seemingly idle, but stopped for a moment at the door of every household.

The news was inquired by Peng Yuer. Although Yang Hu didn't dare to go to Peng Keng's house to learn art anymore, he still didn't give up the opportunity to chase Peng Yuer. Every time Peng Yuer went to the street to buy groceries or play, he would come up and chat.

Yang Hu told Peng Yuer that something happened to his family and the cowherd had run away. Originally, it was nothing to run a cowherd, but the cowherd even stole away from the cow, which is a big deal. Cattle are the main force of farming, and now the market price is that one cow can be exchanged for ten slaves, which is a major loss. However, Yang Hu told Peng Yuer that what was actually more strange was that the cow ran by itself.

Peng Yuer didn't understand, and Yang Hu patiently explained: "The cowherd ran this morning, and he didn't bring anything when he ran." The cow was in the shed. Then at noon, the ox ran away on its own, and no one knew how it got out of the city, or how it got out of the city. Could this cow be a sperm?"

Peng Yuer asked Yang Hu about this cowherd, Yang Hu said one by one, the age and figure are right, it is the same year as Peng Keng, claiming to be Chen Guoren, because he is good at raising cattle, one person can take care of ten cows, stay in Yang Hu's house as a cowherd, and usually do no other work. Peng Yuer hurried home and told Peng Keng.

Peng Keng thought for a moment and nodded: "No wonder I couldn't find him last time." The ox is the first of the hundred animals and the first of the three prisons. The soul power is strong, and the main soul of the old cow for many years can almost reach the young boy. He hid in the cowshed, and the Yanghu family was a wealthy clan, and there were more than a dozen cows in the cowshed. It's hard to spot anomalies when my flying soul explores. If it weren't for the fact that he knew he was injured and it was difficult to hide, he probably wouldn't have run. He came here in the same year as us, but I'm afraid he has been with us for a long time. “

Kong Qiu hesitated and said, "But he looks young......"

Peng Keng shook his head: "He may not be as young as he seems. If my expectations were correct, without a hundred years of cultivation, it would be impossible to achieve his ability. You're already the most talented person I've ever met, and it's only going to take fifty years to reach his level. ”

Mao's face changed, and he couldn't help but speak, just glanced at Kong Qiu.

After thinking about it repeatedly, Kong Qiu finally asked, "Master, what is the Flying Soul Secret Language?"

Peng Keng was stunned: "How do you know the secret language of the flying soul?"

Kong Qiu wanted to say everything, but he didn't know why, the man's words when he left lingered in his heart, he thought about it, and decided not to deceive the master, nor to say anything about the cloth for the time being: "I saw him in front of my window, I was anxious, and I didn't call the master, I invaded his shrine in the middle palace, he talked to me, and talked about the secret language of the flying soul, saying that he was looking for something, which may be related to the secret language of the flying soul, saying that it is related to the common people in the world." Not just people, but all living things. ”

Peng Keng's face turned pale, and he said with a wry smile: "Sure enough, the fruit is terrifying." There are such people in the world. What he was looking for was indeed in my possession. It's just that I can't give it to him. He can't save the people in the world, no one can save them. It is only a matter of time before the world will end. ”

Kong Qiu still wanted to ask, Peng Keng waved his hand, and staggered back to the house, at the door, he turned around and looked at Kong Qiu, his eyes were sad and complicated. He looked at Mao and Peng Yu'er, and seemed to have made a major decision: "Starting tomorrow, I will start teaching you the Flying Soul Secret Language." ”

He paused slightly, then went back to the house. Kong Qiu looked at Peng Yu'er and Mao in confusion, Peng Yu'er was also confused, but Mao was very strange, he stood stunned, with a look of ecstasy on his face.

Qiu asked strangely: "Mao, what's wrong?" Mao came back to his senses, looked at Qiu, and smiled in disguise: "It's nothing, I'm going to learn something new, I'm excited." ”
