Chapter 545: The Art of the Ghost Valley (Fourth Update)
"Yes, the Hell Map is originally a thing of the Guigu Gate, and I came to you this time to get the Hell Map back. Boss Bai, the Hell Map has been lost in the world for many years, and you have worked hard to find it, but I want to thank you. ”
Ling Yunzi poured another cup of tea and handed it to Bai Chang with a smile.
This time Bai Chang didn't answer, he stared at the cup of tea, and said, "I just spent a few minutes listening to a version of the Hell Diagram story, and this time, I don't mind giving you a few more minutes." ”
"Oh, another version of the Hell Diagram story, it must be said that the Hell Diagram has always been enshrined in the underworld."
"How do you know? How do you know everything? ”
Bai Chang couldn't help it, this Ling Yunzi seemed to be an unpredictable prophet, and he seemed to know everything about his actions and even everything.
"Because, I am the only descendant of this generation of Guigumen."
Ling Yunzi was still smiling, unfazed.
Well, Guigumen, it is really broad and profound, and it deserves to be the first of the eight gates of yin and yang.
Next, Ling Yunzi drank tea while telling Bai Chang another story.
A story about the past and present lives of the hell diagram.
He said that after the picture of hell appeared in the hands of the Tang Dynasty painting saint Wu Daozi, the original painting did remain in the underworld and was not brought out, and the mural of Wu Daozi left in the world that shocked the world and cried ghosts and gods was later destroyed in the war.
But although the frescoes are destroyed, there are rubbings.
This rubbing, it is the predecessors of Guigumen who can't bear to see such a treasure destroyed, so they left it.
But later, wars broke out all over the world, and although Guigumen lived in seclusion, it was also implicated, displaced, and turbulent.
In this process, because of its particularity, the rubbing of the Hell Map was fought over by various forces, and it was also damaged, and even almost burned.
At that time, the predecessors of Guigumen, after careful consideration, decided to copy the contents of the rubbings into a volume and carry them separately.
Because the volume of the mural rubbing is too large, it is inconvenient to carry, and the goal is too obvious.
In this way, it took more than a month for the senior of Guigumen to finally complete the copying of the hell map.
However, the burned part of the rubbing book can no longer be recovered.
Rao is like this, and the hell map of the copy is also more than two meters long, and it is magnificent, not weaker than the original.
In some ways, this Hell Diagram is even more instilled with spirit than it should be.
You must know that Guigu has learned a lot of profoundness, and the predecessor of Guigumen is a generation of strange people, he used his life to practice, the art of yin and yang, and the perception of the word "Tao", and the understanding of the mysteries of heaven and earth, all of which are integrated into this copying painting.
This copied picture of hell is exactly the one in Bai Chang's hand at this time.
Later, this hell map has been treasured in the Guigu Gate, until a few years later, the hell map that has been circulated for hundreds of years was accidentally lost in the long river of history, and it was missing.
Ling Yunzi, the heir of the Guigu Gate, was ordered by his master to find the Hell Map three years ago, he traveled the world, walked around and stopped, and came to Xicheng County until he finally found clues.
Bai Chang was a little puzzled by his statement, since the Guigu Gate could not predict the prophet, why couldn't he calculate the whereabouts of the Hell Map, and he had to search for so many years before he had a clue?
Ling Yunzi was like a roundworm in Bai Chang's stomach, and without waiting for Bai Chang to ask, he sighed and said, "You must be thinking, the technique of the Guigu Gate is unpredictable, everything in the world can be discerned, why can't you find the Hell Map?" ”
Bai Chang nodded: "You are indeed able to perceive the first opportunity, and you even know what I am thinking." But you still have to give me a reasonable and perfect answer to this matter. ”
Ling Yunzi said: "Actually, the hell map is not an extraordinary thing, hundreds of years ago, the predecessor of the Guigu Gate, the Dao is mysterious, rare in the world, he spent more than a month, almost exhausted his hard work, the hell map he painted, in fact, already contains his lifelong beliefs, exhausted his lifelong learning, the integration of painting, Taoism, the painted hell map, has a spirituality, and even in the underworld of the hell map, echoing from afar. ”
"So, that's why you can't figure out the whereabouts of the Hell Map?"
"That's right, unless my skills are higher than the Guigumen seniors back then, but it's difficult. I have been out of the mountains for three years and traveled all over the world, and it was only a few days ago that I finally figured out the changes in this place. So, I came here and waited for the hell map to come out. ”
"In other words, you already knew that the changes here had something to do with the Hell Map, but you have been standing by and watching?"
"Yes, I already knew, but I can't do anything about it."
Ling Yunzi shook his head and sighed slightly: "Only when I get the Hell Diagram can I find a way to eliminate all the disasters it has caused, otherwise, I have no way to stop it." ”
Bai Chang said: "So, why is this happening? ”
Ling Yunzi said: "I speculate that the reason is not in this copy of the Hell Map, but that there was a problem with the Hell Map in the original, so it will be reflected in the copy." ”
"That means that even if I bring the Hell Diagram to the underworld, it won't be of much use to the human world?"
"Hehe, if you do that, it will be a disaster for the Three Realms."
"Why?"
"Because if these two identical hell maps appear at the same time, the power generated is enough to tear the space, and the final result is likely to be that there is a spatial crack in the hell, and the real hell will come to the world."
Bai Chang slammed his fist on the table.
Yisheng, that guy really didn't have a good heart!
"So what are we supposed to do now?"
"It's very simple, leave the Hell Diagram to me, because in this world, only I can extract the power of yin and yang contained in the Hell Diagram and turn it into an ordinary painting."
"And then?"
"Then, the world will be at peace."
"How long will this process take?"
"Three days."
"You make me think about ......"
Bai Chang picked up a cup of tea and poured it down, then closed his eyes and pondered.
He is now faced with two choices, and whatever he chooses, it could lead to a catastrophe.
Because, he simply doesn't know who he should trust.
Yi Sheng is certainly not a good person, but at this time, he is not sure whether this Ling Yunzi in front of him is good or bad.
At this moment, just one wrong step is a catastrophe.
Ling Yunzi still looked light-hearted, poured himself a cup of tea unhurriedly, picked it up, put it to his mouth, and took a sip.
He seemed to have calculated that Bai Chang would definitely hand over the Hell Map according to his wishes.
Time passed little by little, and Bai Chang's eyes were closed tightly, and they never opened.
His brow furrowed, as if he had fallen into a deep tangle.
Suddenly, in the quiet of the hut, the light dimmed.
A pool of dark red blood poured out from the surrounding corners, quietly spreading.
In the dark, the hand of death seems to reach out from the unknown, quietly reaching out to the human world......
At this time, Bai Chang suddenly opened his eyes and shook his head at Ling Yunzi.
