Chapter 18: An Unexpected Attack
"Don't! I said I can't do it yet! I smiled bitterly, raised my hand, patted the old man's back gently, and helped him calm his breath: "I'm mainly afraid that you will worry, because some things are ......."
"Worry about the fart!" The old man scolded angrily: "Lao Tzu has eaten more salt than you eat!" β
"That's the weight of your mouth. ΡΡΡ.(vii) (ix) x.S.ΡΠΎΠΌ The update is so fast. Shippo muttered.
"I've crossed more bridges than you've walked!" The old man turned his head and glared at Qibao.
Shippo didn't dare to speak, but I guess he added in his heart that we don't like to move.
To be honest, the old man is in a very bad state now, rather than making him angry half to death, it is better to follow him, and it is better to be afraid than to be angry.
What's more, aren't we okay when we look at it?
When I talked about what happened after landing in Longwang Village, Qibao gave me a look without moving, and Chen Qiuyan did the same, secretly 'touching' and 'touching' me and dragging me, signaling me to take it easy and don't say anything.
The things we have experienced are indeed very dangerous, and they have indeed reached the point of nine deaths, but isn't it okay now, in order to prevent the old man from being too afraid, even if I want to say it, then I have to say it leisurely, and describe it as much as possible......
It's as simple as letting out a fart, but accidentally going wrong and popping out of.
But it is undeniable that the old man is not stupid.
They didn't listen to the beautiful words I said at all, but after listening to them a little, they deeply felt the danger of this business.
Especially when they heard about the monster of the Nine Turtle God, their expressions became more and more ugly, and they were also a little suspicious, as if they didn't know what the Nine Turtle God was about.
"Nine Gods..... This monster must have appeared in ancient books....... But only names have appeared...... So exaggerated monsters...... I've never even heard of it....... It's still fucking primeval....... You're not kidding my old man, are you? The old man muttered.
Miao Wuren nodded, agreeing with the old man's point of view.
"Xiao Shen, according to what you said, that monster is still a kind of god?" Wang Yuanqing asked me curiously.
"Count, at least in the eyes of those cultists, it's just the lowest level of gods, and it's 108,000 miles away from those great gods at the top." I laughed.
"How do you know?" Wang Yuanqing was even more curious: "From the mouth of raising nine lives? β
"Not really." I shook my head: "With the help of the black dragon, I barely escaped from the water, I was also seriously injured at that time, as long as I took a breath, I guess you can't see me, just during the time I was unconscious, I had a 'quite' long dream." β
"What kind of dream?" The old man asked.
When I heard this, I didn't hesitate, anyway, I talked about it, and the people here were not outsiders, so I simply said everything in that dream.
When I stopped narrating, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, the old man and they had not yet come to their senses, and looked at me in a daze, probably pondering how much of the truth was in what I said.
After all, it was a dream, not a real thing, so they definitely had to think about it.
The first person to speak was not the most nervous old man, but Wang Yuanqing.
"The Black-robed King?" Wang Yuanqing frowned and said, as if he remembered something, his face was full of doubts: "I have seen this name, it is on a stone tablet in the three eastern provinces, it is a stone tablet made by modern people, and there are many totems painted on it, and the four words of the king of black robes are engraved in the middle.......
I have to say that when I heard Wang Yuanqing's words, I was indeed a little surprised.
"Are you sure?! Have you really seen this name? β
"I've really seen it, why am I lying to you?" Wang Yuanqing smiled bitterly: "I didn't think much about it at the time, I thought that this black-robed king was a god worshiped by the folk law school, and you also know that the folk law school is very 'messy', not to mention believing in gods, even those who believe in ghosts and monsters, so I think it's 'quite normal', so I don't pay too much attention to it." β
"Is the stele still there?" I asked busily.
Wang Yuanqing frowned and said, I really don't know about this, because it was more than ten years ago, and I just vaguely remember that there was such a stone tablet, where did I meet it...... I just remember that it was in the deep mountains and old forests.
"Damn, I thought that the Gu Master would be evil enough, but I didn't expect that there would be even more evil ......." Miao Wuren said loudly, his eyes were full of surprise: "It's not enough to believe in the gods, even in the primeval period, even those injustices that we haven't heard of, there are people who believe it, and these cubs are idle enough." β
"Those gods are supposed to be real, right?" Wang Yuanqing frowned and said: "Unlike the gods of Buddhism and Taoism, it seems that the possibility of the existence of this kind of monster is higher. β
"Anyway, it doesn't matter if it exists or not, the important thing is that they can borrow power from these gods, didn't Xiao Shen say it just now?" Miao Wuren sighed: "This is the most troublesome thing.....
The old man lit a cigarette and smoked silently for a while, looking at me from time to time, with a sense of fear on his face.
"You can escape this time, really, I'm not convinced." Miao Wuren said with a smile: "It's really better than blue, even we are not sure of it, but you have done it, which shows that you have real skills!" β
At this moment, the old man suddenly opened his mouth and asked me to stand up and walk around him, he wanted to take a closer look at the scars left on my body.
I didn't refuse, I slowly turned around according to his instructions, still muttering in my mouth, I don't know how these scars were 'made', no matter how serious the injuries of the 'flesh' body Gu can be recovered for me, but these scars can't be recovered, and it is estimated that I will have to keep them for a lifetime.
"Hey Xiao Shen! These patterns on your back aren't tattoos, are they? Wang Yuanqing's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered something, and he hurriedly said, "There are several big black spots on your back!" β
"That's also part of the scar, maybe it's a coincidence that it 'made' the shape, so it's a little ....... to look at."
"It's not a coincidence."
As he spoke, the old man grabbed my arm and told me to keep my back to them, and then 'touched' the black 'colored' scars on my back with his hands.
"I look familiar with this pattern, as if I've seen it somewhere."
As he spoke, the old man muttered, slowly counting the black 'colored' scars on my back.
"One...... Two...... Four....... Five....... Six ......." the old man muttered, "There are six in total...... Or are they arranged in this shape...... Isn't this the star map of the Southern Dipper?! β
The Southern Dipper?
Hearing this, I also thought about it for a while, the Big Dipper is the thing I am most familiar with, and it is also something that ordinary people know.
As for the six stars of the Southern Dipper, I remember that it is one of the 28 Nakshatras, which is composed of six stars, namely: Tianfu Star, Tianliang Star, Tianji Star, Tiantong Star, Tianxiang Star, and Seven Killing Stars......
"I remember!!"
This cold roar startled everyone present.
"What are you shouting?" Qibao glared at me angrily, the beef 'meat' he had just picked up from the pot was so frightened by me that it fell directly on the table: "Can you be quieter!" β
"No! Do you remember?? I said excitedly and loudly, as if I had discovered a new continent, and my eyes were full of 'excitement' that I had cracked the big secret: "The brain monster told me that the black-robed king wants to leave Tianfu, and among the six stars of the Southern Dipper, isn't the first star Tianfu Star?" β
Maybe it was because my speculation was too exaggerated, so at that time, everyone didn't say anything, they looked at each other for a while, and no one squeaked.
Just as I was about to continue my analysis, a man suddenly barged into the 'drugstore' shop.
It was a strange man in his forties, holding an umbrella, and his expression looked very eager.
"Which of you is Shen Shi'an?!!"
"I am." I raised my hand and looked at him curiously, "Are you looking for something with me?" β
"I'm a friend of Mr. Situ, and half an hour ago, Wenren Bodhisattva called me and asked me to come over and tell you a piece of news.......
When this person spoke, he felt that he didn't match the words before and after, and the whole person was at a loss, and his face was white.
"Don't worry, speak slowly."
"Don't worry! Something happened over there! β
The middle-aged man said in a hurry, as if the sky had fallen, and he was about to cry.
"Mr. Situ and Wenren Bodhisattva have been attacked!!"
