Chapter 46: The King and the King
The surface of each humanoid statue was cracked with countless cracks.
These gaps are narrow, almost to the extent of "a trace".
But the light contained in it still shines through without hindrance.
The indescribable rays of light, all with a sense of loneliness from the deep sky and the sea of stars, flowed unhurriedly on those statues, like life, endlessly........
More and more light appeared.
The surface of those humanoid statues cracked more and more cracks, until finally, nine-tenths of the entire statue was replaced by those strange soft lights.
At first glance, those statues are like people made of light.
At this time, He Xigong's expression could no longer be described as difficult, as if he was a dead person in the family, and his demeanor was desperate and sad.
I know that something is wrong, I can guess it with my ass, if it weren't for that, how could He Xigong have this expression......
"Something went wrong?" I asked quietly, clutching the Dharma seal in my hand tightly, and my heart lifted.
I'm not sure if He Xigong is playing tricks or if something really went wrong, so I can only be as careful as possible and leave no chance for any enemies.
If the situation gets bad to a certain point, I have a villain around me, and I have one more choice.
If it's a big deal, throw the Dharma Seal into the mouth of the evil man, let it chew it for me, or swallow it, and then escape from the cave as quickly as possible, even if it is death, it will not let the Dharma Seal fall into the hands of He Xigong.
"It has a lot of things in it that the old people don't have....... We may be a little dangerous......." He Xigong said tremblingly, his tone was extremely solemn, and even revealed a fear that could not be concealed: "If the situation is not right, in the end, it still doesn't let it sleep, you just run." ”
"I run?" I was stunned for a moment and looked at He Xigong: "What about you?" ”
"I'm a member of the old sect, so naturally I have a way to save my life, but I can't save you......." He Xigong said helplessly: "Although I don't want to do this, I can only let you go, and I will come to get the Fa Seal next time." ”
"What do you mean...... Let me take the seal with me? I asked in some surprise, I just felt that He Xigong's words were a bit unexpected.
This old thing wouldn't be so moral, would it? How does it feel...... He's not like that.......
At this moment, a sudden whisper echoed through the cave without warning.
The whispers didn't come from one person, they were the same group of people I heard in the tunnel at the top.
Men, women, and children, hundreds, thousands, more and more voices mingled in.
"Do you hear that?" He Xigong asked coldly.
"You can hear me too??" I frowned, feeling a little wrong: "I thought it was my hallucination...... You can hear me......."
"It's a hallucination." He Xigong gritted his teeth and said: "But this illusion has already pulled both of us in, hurry up and kneel down, don't stand here........"
As soon as the words fell, He Xigong knelt on the ground with a plop, his forehead pressed against the ground, and the whole person showed a sense of groveling, just like worshipping the master, bowing to the old creature.
I wasn't going to kneel, after all, there's something that says.
The boy had gold under his knees.
But at this time, gold is not worth much, and his life is going to be gone, so what is the integrity?
At least I don't want to die in this hellish place and kneel for that monster...... It's not a big deal.
When I knelt down with the evil man, He Xigong leaned over to us again and whispered to me that those whispers should have come from the monster itself.
It used to be a "god" that was revered, but now it is down.
"What do you think....... How much difference is there between our strength and this monster? I asked tentatively, holding on to the last glimmer of hope, and cautiously asked, "If you want to run, can it stop us?" ”
He Xigong didn't speak, probably because he was too lazy to talk to me.
At this moment, the light of those humanoid statues became even brighter, and the brightness gradually increased, and the whispers coming from all directions became louder and clearer.
Star ...... Lose....... Bit ......."
"In the end....... ....... Lafutessa"
"The galaxy pours into the lake....... Reflected Black Star....... will rise ........"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but be curious, and asked in a low voice, "Can you understand their whispers?" ”
He Xigong nodded.
"What is Laphtessa?" I asked curiously.
"The place where the black-robed king lives, according to Master Zizai, is a city, and the location is at the bottom of Tianfu." He Xigong replied in a low voice: "Tianfu is where Si Ming Xingjun lives, you know, right? ”
"Are there really immortals??" I asked, a little surprised.
"No, but the black-robed king should be real." He Xigong frowned and said: "If the gods of Buddhism and Taoism are the embodiment of faith and just a gathering of spiritual power, then these old kings are really creatures that really exist in the world. ”
"Immortals don't necessarily exist, but creatures do, you mean?" I asked.
He Xigong snorted and said: "The name Laphtesa is quite strange, the first time I heard it from Master Zizai, I thought it was a foreign city, but it turned out that this name is homophonic, in our language, it should be the city of black stars, the country of abundance." ”
"Aside from the Black-robed King and his followers, do you know any other creatures of the old days?" I asked quietly.
He Xigong nodded, no squeak.
"How many other powerful creatures like the black-robed king are there?" I asked tentatively.
"As far as I know, there's only one." He Xigong said in a low voice: "But this creature only exists in the texts of the old religion, and as far as I know so far, no one worships it, and no future generations follow it. ”
"Who?" I asked in a hurry.
He Xigong looked left and right, and saw that there was no other movement around, but those whispers were constantly ringing, so he dared to speak and tell me.
Sandboon.
When I heard this name, my heart jumped, but I didn't show it, and I quietly put on He Xigong's words: "This is also the name of an old creature?" ”
"Yes, if the black-robed king symbolizes the darkness of the deep sky and the starry sea, then this sand-bodied person symbolizes disorderly chaos, and also symbolizes disaster and death......." He Xigong said in a low voice: "In the old days, it was the opposite of the black-robed king, and the two monsters fought countless battles large and small, but each time it ended in a draw. ”
"How do you know so much?" I asked curiously.
"It's in the book." He Xigong explained in a low voice: "There are many classics left over from ancient times in the old religion, and there are many things recorded in the old days. ”
"The Sand-Body Man is at the same level as the Black-robed King?" I asked quietly.
"It should be." He Xigong frowned and said: "It is a disordered person who despises death, and it is also the master of disasters, often haunting the land of yellow sand, the book says, when it appears in the world, thousands of miles of yellow sand will die, and the stars in all directions will also extinguish their light, chaos and disasters will come to the earth, and the world will become an unordered world." ”
"Listen to what you say....... It doesn't seem like a good thing......." I frowned.
"None of this is a good thing." He Xigong sighed: "The moral concept of human beings is incomprehensible to ants, and the moral concept of the creatures of the past is not necessarily acceptable to us, so they are not good or bad." ”
"What about the black-robed king?" I asked, "What will it bring when it comes to the Hereafter?" ”
"The world will fall into darkness, and the followers hidden in the deep sky and the sea of stars will descend on the earth one by one." He Xigong said in a low voice: "Time will stop, it will also die, and the world will fall into a state of order but no end, no death, no liberation, no future ......."
"You've said you have a purpose, and you're not the kind of person who believes in God." I smiled: "If the black-robed king really appeared, you wouldn't be happy, right?" ”
He Xigong glanced back at me, his expression a little complicated.
"It's not going to be easy for everyone." I sighed: "So, we must not let that monster come back, even if we want to fight, we have to be within a safe range, fight with ourselves, and we can't find such a deadly foreign aid if we die." ”
"Are you trying to trick me?" He Xigong looked at me helplessly.
I shook my head and said, "It's not bewitching, it's just trying to persuade you to turn back."
"There are no eggs under the nest, in front of the black-robed king, the followers of the old religion are also like ants, whether they can protect themselves is unknown, those things that are beyond our understanding, it is better not to touch them as much as possible......."
Hearing my words, He Xigong sighed.
"I know."
He Xigong shook his head with a wry smile and repeated.
I know.
