Chapter 325: Ten Thousand Ghosts
An area in the center of the Wanji Forest is one of the most mysterious places in the whole day pit, here is shrouded in thick black fog all year round, there is no grass inside, it is full of craggy strange stones and bottomless pits, even if the monks of the spiritual construction period come here, the spiritual power can only penetrate the fog of about 100 zhang, and the mysterious black fog does not know where it comes from, in addition to blocking the spiritual power, there is also a characteristic that the black fog does not contain any spiritual energy, monks, The demon beast does not have any external aura to borrow from inside, and if there is a battle, it can only rely on the aura stored in its own body to fight the enemy, but the black mist does not do any harm to the human body itself. Based on this, there are usually no demon beasts living in it, and no monk is willing to go deeper, even if someone occasionally strays into it, after finding that there is no spiritual energy available, they all retreat in horror. The monks who had done good things had organized several expeditions on a large scale, but after several teams of monks of the seventh order had gone and never returned, no one was willing to die. This place is also known as the "Dead Fog Stone Forest".
In the early morning, the Death Fog Stone Forest was quiet, with a thick black fog rolling, and the surroundings were lifeless. Suddenly, the dense fog at the edge of the black mist stone forest seemed to be stirred by something, and it fluctuated sharply, and a sound came from the black mist, and then, a black shadow with a height of only more than three feet stumbled out of the dense fog, and after leaving the black mist, it quickly ran into the dense forest not far ahead. After another half a pillar of incense, the greater fluctuation made the black mist stir up like a boiling pot, and several tall figures rushed out of the Death Mist Stone Forest again, seeing that the shape had both demon beasts and monks, several figures stood on the edge of the black mist and let out an unwilling roar, and then slowly retreated to the inside of the black mist, and the entire area returned to calm again.
The two elders of black and white led everyone to stand on the edge of the Ten Thousand Trace Forest, at this time, it had been five days since the few people left the periphery of the Holy City, the white madman was pacing back and forth, as impatient as ants on a hot pot, the black madman was watching happily from the side, the Dongxuan fairy was meditating quietly with a clear appearance, Lu Yi and Xin Tong were exchanging their experience in the ten years of cultivation in the frozen period, and Xin Tong's breath had reached the late stage of the fourth order. After a few people came to the edge of the Ten Thousand Trace Forest, according to Lu Yi's assumption, the white madman had ordered his subordinates to send the false news that the white madman was trapped, and several people were now waiting for the arrival of the beast queen at the pre-agreed place. There is nothing to do, it just so happens that Lu Yi wants to go to the WTO alone to experience life after this matter is over, so he offered to help Xin Tong once again cast the "Nine Star Empowerment Array" to help him improve his cultivation, anyway, in the next period of time, Xin Tong will manage the affairs of Le Xiaoyao, and he has no time to concentrate on cultivation, so he can just make use of this ten-year cultivation for the frozen period, Xin Tong's cultivation is stable in the middle of the fourth order, and it is impossible to make a big improvement in a short period of time, so he is naturally very willing. After extorting a considerable amount of high-grade spirit stones from the black man, Lu Yi only used a small part to complete the promotion of Xin Tong, and hated the black maniac and called Lu Yi the biggest profiteer in the sinkhole in history.
Originally, a few people calculated according to the time, if the beast queen really rushed to get the news, with the teleportation speed of the seventh-order monk, it was estimated that it would take five to seven days to arrive, but after only four days, the white madman was already unable to hold his breath, and he didn't know if he was afraid of facing the beast queen or worried that the beast queen would not come at all, anyway, the white madman became extremely irritable, just walking back and forth in a radius of several zhang, and from time to time muttering something that others couldn't understand. For a whole day and a night, the old man had flattened all the grass on the ground, and he had no intention of stopping. At first, a few people saw the white madman like this and teased or comforted him, but the white madman didn't listen to it at all, and still walked around on his own.
Time flies, and soon, it's the seventh day, but the beast queen hasn't even seen a shadow, the white madman has become more and more anxious, everyone has clearly felt his ambivalence, he doesn't want to see it, he doesn't want to see it and has some hopes, if it weren't for the black madman and Lu Yi pulling him, he would have fled into the Ten Thousand Traces Forest alone.
At sunset, according to the original agreement, after tonight, everyone will set off.
The moon and stars are scarce, and the black magpie flies south, which is destined to be a sleepless night.
"Madman, let me ask you, once the beast queen does come, how do you want to deal with them? After all, you have not seen each other for hundreds of years, and I don't know what they think. The black madman asked, looking at the white maniac who was still pacing.
"I, I don't know, I don't know what to do. When the white madman heard this, he stopped, his expression very distressed.
"After so many years, you stupid, you really left a woman in the Holy City and didn't ask, I think if the beast queen really has feelings for you, she will definitely hate you at this time. And although the fake news was sent to her this time to test whether she cared about you, but after all, we deceived others, in case she found out that it was a scam after she came, and turned her face with you, what should you do?"
When the white madman heard this, he held his head in his hands, squatted down in pain, and kept shaking his head, but he couldn't say a word.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, what's more, you're still a blessing, is it necessary to be so painful?" Lu Yi didn't have a backache when he stood and talked, completely forgetting how he was cleaned up by Lu Feng back then.
"I don't need to worry too much about Bai Lao, you have your own natural appearance, so many years, since the beast queen didn't trouble you anymore but was bent on impacting the spirit, it means that she must have you in her heart. If the seniors are also fond of her, this matter is naturally a beautiful thing, but now the problem is still in the seniors themselves, I see that the seniors have been restless and restless these days, obviously extremely contradictory in their hearts, while the beast queen has not arrived, can the seniors first make a statement with us, how do the seniors think of the beast queen in their hearts?"
"That's it, that's it, that's the key to the problem, you don't have an attitude yourself, and it's nonsense for us to worry. The black madman agreed with Fairy Dongxuan's words.
"She is so much younger than me, and I have always lived as an elder, so I didn't pay attention to letting her mess around back then. The white madman's words were insincere, and several people listened very clearly.
"We, monks, have changed our lives against the sky, when has age become an obstacle? Lu Yi said indignantly.
"People are as beautiful as flowers, and there are many suitors, how can they take a fancy to me, a bad old man?" the white madman continued to look at him.
"Aren't you also a talent, besides, since that you have been showing yourself as an old man, isn't it just to avoid other women?"
"I, I, madman, am not afraid to tell you that I actually have some affection for the beast queen, but, as you know, it has not been long since that incident, and I am afraid that I will disappoint people's hearts. The white madman was silent for a moment, and with great courage, he finally told the real reason.
Although others listened to it in the clouds, the black madman understood very well what the white madman said, and when he heard this, he also closed his mouth and frowned, and fell silent.
Lu Yi, Dongxuan Fairy, and Xin Tong, you look at me, I look at you, I didn't expect that there seemed to be a secret matter involving the two elders of black and white, but they didn't want to ask, so they could only stand where they were and wait.
After a long time, the black madman raised his head, looked at the white madman resolutely, and said, "Madman, I know what you mean. I think that we had not yet set foot in the spirit building, although we were embarrassed, we also succeeded in protecting ourselves. Now the two of us are no longer the little friars of the past, and we may not have the strength to fight, even if we are determined to die, but it is not certain who will kill the deer. The reason why you are so indecisive, you must have a tight value for the beast queen in your heart, I'm afraid you will lose her, but the old brother is lonely, he has no worries, and he has a successor to what he has learned, so you can rest assured to face the beast queen, if you are really unable to do it, the old brother will fight for his life and ensure that you return safely, rest assured, everything has an old brother. ”
Having said this, even a fool understands that the two elders of black and white are looking for a mortal enmity with others, and it is also the kind of mortal enmity that has little chance of winning, and it is related to the fact that the two of them have been in a hurry to accept apprentices over the years, and they must be afraid that what they have learned will be in vain, so that it is very clear that the two have done a lot of incomprehensible things over the years. Xin Tong has a very good relationship with the black madman for more than 20 years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is in love with father and son, and when he heard the black madman say this, his eyes turned red, and he immediately pounced in front of the black maniac, and knelt on the ground with a "poof", holding the black man's thighs with both hands and said: "Master, do you want to abandon the apprentice?!" The two lines of tears could not stop flowing.
Lu Yi finally understood why the white madman always chased after him to apprentice, although he knew that it was impossible for him to worship the white madman as a teacher, but he was very moved in his heart, and the corners of his mouth twitched, but the words were not spoken after all.
"Fool, how can the master be willing to give up you, but the master does have something to do in exchange for his life. Besides, I've been a black madman in the world for so many years, and God doesn't accept me because of my life, so how can I hang up so easily? The black madman was very pleased to stretch out a big hand and caress the top of Xin Tong's head lovingly, his eyes full of pampering.
The white madman jumped up even more excitedly, stretched out his hand and pointed at the nose of the black madman and shouted: "Dead madman, are you trying to trap me in injustice? What do you mean that you have to protect me even if you fight for your life, what do you think of me as a white madman? ! Tell you, I want to die, and I will be the first, and it will not be your turn to die or live in front of me!"
"If you go, then I don't want to live!" a faint voice came suddenly, startling everyone present.
