Chapter 235: The Secret Art of Immortality
The seventh master jumped up from the ground all of a sudden, grabbed the deer's shoulders and shouted excitedly: "He, he's not dead yet?" ”
Xiaolu put down the seventh master's hand and said proudly: "How is it, now you should tell me, what is going on with all this, right?" ”
Hearing this, the seventh master suddenly fell silent, lowered his head and didn't speak, this is obviously not like the seventh master on weekdays, he must be in an inner struggle now.
I stabbed the fawn in the back and asked softly, "What's going on?" Wu Kong is his son? How do you know? ”
Xiaolu turned his head, winked at me, and said with a smile: "I guessed too, I overheard the conversation between several of them before entering the mountain, and at that time, Uncle Li promised the Seventh Master and the Black Hook that he would definitely find their son, so I wondered if this Wu Kong would be the son of the Seventh Master." ”
"Are you saying that the real purpose of the Seventh Master and Black Hook entering the mountain is to find their respective sons?"
Xiaolu nodded, this makes sense, no wonder Wu Kong and Yang Tianxia are so close, and their father decided to enter the mountain as soon as he saw Pixiu Yupei, it must be because their original purpose was to find the Immortal Immortal Pool.
But there is one thing I don't understand, Wu Kong and Yang Tianxia turned against each other later, which really doesn't make sense.
"What else do you know?" The Seventh Master suddenly spoke.
Xiaolu and I glanced at each other, he shook his head at me slightly, signaled me not to speak, and then said to the seventh master: "It's not that we don't believe you, but before we figure things out, we must ensure the accuracy of all information, so you must tell us everything truthfully, so that we can know whether what you said is true or not, so that we can tell you the specific situation of your son, I believe that in your eyes there is nothing more important than Wu Kong!" ”
The seventh master fell silent again, I don't know what medicine is sold in the deer gourd, but looking at the aura of these two people, it is indeed different from usual, so I didn't dare to make a sound, and sat on the side and watched them quietly.
After a long time, the seventh master relented and said: "Okay, I'll tell you everything I know, but before that, you have to tell me first, what happened to my son, and what happened?" ”
"The kid with him is dead!" Xiaolu frightened the Seventh Master and said, "But as for Wu Kong, although there was an accident, he is still alive!" ”
The seventh master was relieved when he heard that his son was still alive.
"Hey, you won't admit it if you get the information, tell me what you know!" I said.
The seventh master drank a few sips of water and sneered: "Hmph! You are doing this to your savior? Don't forget that I brought you here one by one! ”
I didn't seem to want to say what the seventh master meant, so I suddenly got angry, stood up and wanted to teach him a lesson, but was stopped by the deer, and only heard the deer say: "The seventh master has been here for so long, he must be suffering from not being able to open this tomb door, right?" ”
When he said this, I realized that there was a tomb door behind me, and it turned out that we had found the burial chamber.
"You know what is going on, and you know what will happen if we stop feeding you." The fawn threatened.
The seventh master raised his head, his face was a little strange, I didn't expect things to evolve like this, the relationship was stiff, and it was not good for anyone.
After a while, the seventh master finally said: "Okay, I admit defeat, but don't forget our original agreement!" As he spoke, the Seventh Master and the deer looked at each other, as if they were making eye contact with each other.
"What agreement?" I was puzzled.
But no one paid attention to me, and the seventh master continued: "According to the historical records of Nanzhao, Queen Nanzhao has the ability to control time, and she can change people's life, death and lifespan at will, that is, she can make a baby grow old in an instant, and she can also rejuvenate a gray-haired old man, this is the legendary secret art of immortality." Legend has it that the Nanzhao clan received the favor of the queen, and all of them had the ability to live forever, and once the yang life was approaching, they would become babies again, and at the same time, all memories would disappear. But this effect of immortality is not unconditional, you must take the legendary token with you before death comes, and open the immortal pool to continue your life. ”
"But since the memory is gone, how can you remember to look for Xiantan?" I asked.
"This is the reason why many Nanzhao's clansmen died, only a few people have some fragments in the depths of their memories because they have inherited tokens, and there are very few people who have survived to the present."
"The token you are talking about, is it the Pixiu jade pendant?"
"I don't know about this, I remember Lao Li once told me that there are three pieces of Pixiu Jade Pendant, one on himself, one on the fourth master, and one other, no one knows so far."
"Who is the fourth master?"
"Could it be the fourth master of Guanshan - Jiao Si?" Xiaolu suddenly interjected.
"That's right, in fact, you all know this fourth master, because he has another name!"
"We know each other?" I looked at him suspiciously, "Who is it?" ”
The seventh master showed a smile, rubbed the tip of his nose, and said to us, "Ah! ”
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, it turned out that Ah Mo was not his real name, so I asked Xiaolu instead, "Who is this Jiao Si?" ”
The seventh master took over and said: "During the Qing Dynasty, there was a strange person in the south who walked between yin and yang and entered the soil to seek talents, he is Jiao Si, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called 'the four masters of Guanshan'. The so-called official has official law, thieves have theft rules, because the inverted bucket line is the work of taking things from the underworld, so there are many obscure incisions in it, the so-called 'Guanshan' is the jargon in the tomb robbery line, and the Guanshan is the other name of the tomb site and the good hole. ”
The Seventh Master paused, and continued: "Jiao Si is talented and intelligent, with excellent understanding, he has accumulated a lot of experience in inverted fighting in the past few years, and he has also realized the way from it, and he is good at using the changes of heaven and earth, the special reaction generated by the interaction of yin and yang, looking for dragons and caves in the wilderness, so his reputation is shocking, but then he suddenly disappeared, and no one has seen him since!" Lao Li said that it was at that time that Jiao Siye occasionally obtained the Pixiu Jade Treasure, found the immortal immortal pool, and obtained the art of immortality, so that he could survive to this day. ”
"Then according to what you say, Jiao Si is not a member of Nanzhao's clan?"
"I didn't say that only the people of Nanzhao can live forever, but foreigners are different from their own people, once the foreigners master the art of immortality, then their memories will continue, this is actually a very painful process, many people can't imagine what it's like to live for hundreds of years, which is why Queen Nanzhao is willing to bury herself in the tomb of the Heavenly Maiden."
