Chapter 760: The January Covenant
This matter seems to be our fault, the two of us swaggered through the void labyrinth, and swaggered out of the belly of the mountain god, and finally swaggered to take away the three souls and seven spirits of the mountain lord, and wanted to swagger away.
Even if it is their duty to borrow their lives, this matter is a bit unreasonable, right?
Liu Tieshou is thick-skinned, and he wants to drag me away quickly, lest people regret it and seek revenge on the two of us. But I couldn't help but stop.
Liu Tieshou was anxious and said, "Old Yu, my ancestor!" What do you want to do? Why don't you leave now, waiting to be sliced? He turned around and said angrily to Jiang Li, "Little bastard! The mountain lord's borrowing was his own volition! This is also the duty of you mountain people! What's wrong? Do you still want to do something to us? ”
It was Jiang Liyan who shouted to us just now, since the old mountain lord broke his life, his body has regained his freedom. It's just that his face is very gloomy now, and his hair is furious, and he feels like a beast about to get angry.
I said proudly, "What do you want?" ”
The life was voluntarily lent to me by the old mountain master, and if Jiang Liyan wanted to regret it and snatch it back, he couldn't allow him to come nonsense. Don't look at the number of them, but as long as I take advantage of the reason, even death can't let him get his wish.
Jiang Liyan didn't speak, just waved his hand, and a few mountain people with five big and three thick people walked over carrying a coffin. He said coldly: "It is our duty for the mountain people to borrow their lives, and since the old mountain master voluntarily gave his life to you, we have nothing to say." But there is borrowing and repaying, I want to ask, when will you be able to repay the life of our old mountain master? ”
Listening to his tone, he didn't seem to object to us taking away the three souls and seven spirits of the old mountain lord, but he wanted me to set a date for returning. Indeed, since it is borrowed, there must be a time to return it. Otherwise, it can only be called wanting, not borrowing.
Before I could speak, Liu Tieshou next to me whispered, "It's still a fart!" Lao Tzu has lived in Yudu for so many years, and he has also seen the purple-clothed priest borrow his life from the mountain man, but he has never heard of anyone returning it. ”
His voice was a little louder, so that Jiang Liyan heard it, and I saw that Jiang Liyan's two eyebrows gradually rose, obviously on the verge of exploding.
I ignored Liu Tieshou, but thought about it carefully, and said solemnly: "I can't hide it, coming to Wuzhi Mountain to borrow my life is something I promised others." I don't really know exactly how much time I can borrow. But I swear with my life, as long as I am alive, I will definitely return the three souls and seven spirits of the old mountain master! If not, I'll pay with my own life! ”
Jiang Liyan sneered: "The life of the exorcist is very expensive, how can it be compared to the rotten life of the mountain man?" He pointed to the coffin behind him and said, "A month!" The corpse coffin can only keep the old mountain lord's body from decaying for a month! I want you to return the three souls and seven spirits of the old mountain lord within a month! If not! We, 700 mountain people, will come down the mountain collectively to seek justice from you! ”
I thought about it carefully, and in a month's time, I said too much, and said no less. If you want to come, Zhang Sanling will do whatever you want to do, it is enough. And I respect this old mountain lord who gave my life to me without complaint, and it is also my duty to protect his soul.
After all, I borrowed this life, and I made an appointment for Zhang Sanling to make an appointment, and he had to agree if he didn't agree.
So I nodded and said, "Okay! Then take one month as the deadline, and when the time comes, I will go up the mountain again and return the three souls and seven spirits of the old mountain master to you! ”
Jiang Li stared at me expressionlessly, as if he wanted to see from my face whether I was perfunctory or not. After a long while, he nodded slightly and said, "Exorcist, remember your promise!" ! ”
I knew that the mountain people of Wuzhi Mountain didn't like the two of us, so I didn't stay here long, and after saying goodbye, I turned around and went back the way I came.
On the way back, it was safe and sound, and there was no more mess. It's just that Liu Tieshou has been complaining to me, saying that when he was in Yudu, the life of the mountain man was reserved for the purple-clothed priests, and if they died after use, they would die, even if there was no soul scattered, the purple-clothed priest didn't bother to return it, and it would be good to just throw it away and let it fend for itself.
Although under the gaze of Emperor Shun's eyes, no one dared to abuse the lives of the mountain people, but no one went to Luoyan Mountain to return their lives. I promised Jiang Liyan to go to Wuzhi Mountain to return my life, but in fact, I lost the face of the purple-clothed priest.
I don't bother to deal with Liu Tieshou, this guy lived in Yudu in the early years, and later became the king and hegemon in Fierce Ghost Street. Although he was able to keep abreast of the outside world because of the intermittent opening of Ghost Street, he did not understand what human rights meant in modern society.
Mountain people are also human beings, and whether the exorcists in the circle admit it or not, they all have their own human rights. It is their duty to lend me their lives, but it is also our responsibility to return them to the mountain people after we have used them.
If it weren't for the fact that the previous exorcists were too greedy and didn't care about the lives of the mountain people, they would not have deliberately faded out of the circle, so that in the past hundred years, people have forgotten this group of descendants of the mountain people who were once rescued by the human king Fuxi.
Liu Tieshou saw that I didn't eat oil and salt, and he stopped talking after saying hatefully. I didn't say anything to him, I just followed the maze down the hill and found the place where we parked.
It was already dark when I found the car, and Liu Tie and I got into the car and prepared to go back to Zhang's house in Taihang Mountain to have a look. Although Zhangjia Zhuangzi has been burned to the ground, the people over there are still there. And whether Zhang Sanling and the old men of Tie Sanchuan killed the Death Scythe or not, I am also very worried.
If they win, it's fine, and if they lose, maybe they need me and Liu Tieshou to help.
As soon as he mentioned returning to Zhangjia Zhuangzi, Liu Tieshou was reluctant in every way. He said to me: "Old Yu, the scythe of death is clearly aimed at Zhangjia Zhuangzi. We are not from Zhangjia Zhuangzi, why are we so concerned? We did enough last night, so why bother with this troubled water? ”
I started the off-road vehicle, then glanced at Liu Tieshou coldly, and said, "How did you come to Zhangjiazhuang in the first place?" ”
Liu Tieshou's swarthy face turned slightly red, and he said, "Isn't that the Lord of the Hundred Evil Alliance and the Great Ship Master chasing after him?" Those two bastards have electromagnetic equipment, and Lao Tzu can't bear it, so he has to come to Zhangjia Zhuangzi to try his luck."
I asked again, "Did Zhangjia Zhuangzi shelter you?" ”
Liu Tieshou said embarrassedly: "You didn't drive me out, but the two of us fought with the Death Scythe, didn't we return it?" ”
I snorted, "You were captured alive by the Death Scythe, and who helped us both get out?" Lao Liu, although you are not a human being, you are a big iron man, but you have to have a face, right? ”
Liu Tieshou said impatiently: "Okay, okay! Don't say it, my Lao Liu is not an ungrateful person. The old men helped me once, and I paid them back once. I'll go back with you and have a look! But let's put our ugly words in front, if those old men don't die, I will naturally do my best, but if they die, don't blame me Lao Liu for patting his ass and leaving! ”
I have a lot of faith in those old people. Although I haven't seen Zhang Sanling and He Weidao make a move, I know what kind of skills Mr. Jiang and Tie Sanchuan have.
If the four of them are about the same strength, even if they can't win, they can always delay for a while. As long as Zhangjia Zhuangzi's pursuers come, it should not be difficult to leave these evil cults.
So I was only farting when I was Liu Tieshou, and I turned the car around and wanted to go back the way I came. But suddenly, my body trembled, and then I stepped on the brakes!
The vehicle had just started, and I was caught off guard by the brakes, and the huge inertia made Liu Tieshou hit his head in front, so angry that he yelled and said, "Old Yu! You don't know how to drive! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, his face became terrified, as if he had discovered something extremely terrifying.
Liu Tieshou has lived for thousands of years, what has he never seen? The imps he ate didn't know hundreds or thousands, where else could scare him?
Then I heard Liu Tie's stammering voice: "Emperor Emperor Emperor"
He didn't say the second word for a long time, and then rolled his eyes, and he fainted in a daze.
I ignored Liu Tieshou, but took a deep breath and said respectfully: "Mr. Chonghua! ”
Seriously, the only person in this world who can scare Liu Tieshou out is probably the former Emperor Shun and the current Mr. Chonghua.
Compared with the last time, Mr. Chonghua is still dressed in a purple robe and is full of energy. The only thing that was different from before was that he had a deep exhaustion on his face. He stood at the front of the car, letting the headlights shine on him without even blinking his eyes.
In the face of the existence of this legend, I didn't dare to slack off, ignoring Liu Tieshou, who was fainting in the car, I turned off the lights, opened the door, and said respectfully: "Mr. Chonghua, hello." ”
Mr. Chonghua nodded slightly at me, and I couldn't tell what I was thinking in my deep eyes. However, when he used to deal with the Time God Dragon, I knew that the ancestor of this exorcist was definitely a top master, and it was estimated that even if the Death Scythe came, it would have to be deflated in his hands.
But what is this old man doing at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain? Do you also want to borrow your life from the mountain people? Or did he just come for me?
While I was thinking about it, Mr. Chonghua suddenly smiled at me and said, "Yu Buren, I want you to do me a favor." ”
I was taken aback that the famous Emperor Shun, the founder of the exorcist, actually told me that he wanted me to help, which really made me feel flattered. But then I came to my senses, can I help with things that even he can't do?
So I cautiously said, "Mr. Chonghua, I'm happy to help you." But what do I need to do? ”
Mr. Chonghua smiled and said, "Let's get in the car and talk about it!" Otherwise, the little ones will chase after them again. ”
