Chapter Seventy-Two: A Letter from Far Away

As they listened closely, they noticed that some ethereal sounds seemed to be beginning to surround them. Those voices were solemn and sacred, like extraterrestrial voices from nine heavens away. Even if he couldn't understand it, Qin Zhen could roughly feel it, it was the sound of Sanskrit scriptures.

But this voice definitely can't come from the Demon Lord of the Tower! Because the sound of this Sanskrit chanting seems to be very distant, and it seems to be chanted by a large number of people, not alone.

Qin Zhen raised his head and looked at the top of the tower, it was an extremely strange picture. The sunlight refracted by the nine bronze mirrors is much stronger than when I first saw it! Nine golden rays of light are like divine Buddha light, and the scorching eyes bloom on the top of the Nanzhao Tower! Coupled with the solemn Sanskrit sound floating around, it feels even more sacred!

But then, the hearts of the three of them suddenly felt a sharp pain at the same time!! It felt like a sharp knife cutting through the heart! They subconsciously couldn't help but cover their hearts and endure the heart-rending pain!

It has to be said that Qin Zhen is careful, and in the intense pain, he still didn't forget to lift his sleeves and look for that damn thread. I want to know if their pain has anything to do with the Nine Dragons curse.

Under this look, Qin Zhen was suddenly overjoyed! Their silver thread, which had already stretched to the biceps, had retreated to the elbow joint... And there is also the meaning of continuous fading...

"This is、Is this the witchcraft of the Demon Lord starting to work? It would be so fast! Qin Zhen said incredulously. The great joy has overshadowed the heart-rending pain.

Lao Gu was also a little surprised when he saw the change in this curse, but after thinking about it, he asked rhetorically: "Since it is so fast, why does the Demon Lord still detain Dong Shao in the tower for three days?" Wouldn't it be good to come out and go back to your own house now? ”

Lao Gu's words just fell. I heard a very elegant voice from far and near behind me and said, "That's because this is just the beginning, and it will take three days for the Demon Lord to complete the entire witch spell. ”

It turned out to be Nine Shades! Qin Zhen hurriedly stood up and greeted him. Eagerly expressing his anxious feelings. Jiuyou signaled them not to worry too much, they should rest and rest. They're crazy out there. It didn't help Yudong at all. On the contrary, it will distract him.

Having said that, if a friend who has died in the tower doesn't know whether he is dead or alive, who can do what he should eat and sleep?

Qin Zhen told Jiuyou about the signs of their sudden heartache just now, and asked her if Yudong would be like this too?

Jiuyou lowered his eyes and hesitated for a moment before raising his head again and slowly saying to them, "What he has endured is far more painful than yours. And...... It won't be intermittent. ”

“…… What does this mean? You're saying he's going to have to suffer that heart-gouging pain for three days?? Qin Zhen asked in disbelief. He really didn't want to believe that this was the case! Because just a short period of time was enough to make the three of them sweat! If it is said that Qin Zhen and Gu Jie have poor tolerance, what about Jiang Qi? Jiang Qi is an officer of a special forces. The endurance is 100 times stronger than ordinary people! But just now, he was also in so much pain that his expression was a little distorted.

Jiuyou didn't say much about the question Qin Zhen asked, she just took two steps forward, looked at the tower gate and said leisurely: "This qiē was chosen by himself, isn't it?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Zhen was a little confused. Yudong did choose a different path from ordinary people, he shouldered heavier responsibilities and responsibilities, and persistently guarded the qiē he wanted to protect. But that doesn't mean he deserves to die, does it?

At this time, Gu Jie seized the opportunity to ask: "Female Bodhisattva, what is in this tower?" Why is it so abnormal? It's obviously a tower. But it was wrapped in iron chains like a dumpling! ”

Jiuyou shook his head and said, "This is probably only known to the Demon Lord. The Lotus Sutra says that there were seven pagodas in front of the Buddha at that time, with a height of 500 and a length of 250 years. Coming out of the ground. Live in the air. All kinds of treasures and Zhuang school, five thousand columns, thousands of niches. Countless flags are strictly decorated. Hanging treasure Yingluo, treasure bell trillion and hanging on it. From the words that the Demon Lord had unintentionally mentioned in the past. This is almost the scene in the Nanzhao Tower. Merely. The stupa is generally dedicated to the Buddha's bone relics, but here it is dedicated to the Daikokuten. ”

Yudong is really right! The Demon Lord believes in the Dian Mi Dahei Heavenly God, and I heard him say that he is also a healing god. It's just that the name sounds somewhat scary, giving people a feeling of oppression.

"The Demon Lord, like the Great Black Celestial God, is subject to immeasurable ghosts and gods. That's why you see today's Hundred Demons and Demon Lords. Then come with me. Jiuyou said, and took the lead towards the back of the tower.

Qin Zhen and the others glanced at each other, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of Jiuyou and came to the back of the Nanzhao Tower.

It is clear here that the structure of this tower is very delicate and unique. The plan is octagonal, with a glazed tile roof, and the eight walls of the tower are decorated with mullioned windows, round coupon doors and various Buddhist statues with realistic images.

On the base of the tower is a circular lotus seat, the lotus petals are seven layers in total, staggered up and down, stretching left and right, bearing the body of the tower, protecting the base of the tower, and in the middle of that, the carved Buddha statue is the big black sky that the demon lord believes in.

It's just that this big black god seems to be different from the ordinary Buddha statues. Although the big black sky in the ordinary Buddha statue is also angry, if you look closely, you will find the difference. The big black sky carved here is surrounded by dragons. It can be seen that this is to express the submission to the dragon, and it can also increase his terrifying anger.

According to Jiuyou, the body of this Buddha was originally blue and black clouds, with poisonous snakes penetrating through the skull as Yingluo, and there were six arms.

Each of the six hands holds objects, the middle two hands are placed in front of the chest, the left hand holds the blood of a man's bone bowl, the right hand holds a lunate-shaped knife, and the other four hands are separated: the upper pair holds the head of the hungry ghost in the right and the trident in the left, which means that he will pierce all sentient relations in the heavens, on the earth, and on the earth; And both hands also open an elephant skin at the same time, which signifies the expulsion of ignorance.

A pair of hands below holds a tambourine in the right hand, summoning a hundred ghosts and subduing them; Holding a wire in the left hand, one end is a vajra, and the other end is a hook, indicating that the hook is a qiē demon. The body of the Buddha is in a standing position, with the right leg bent, the left leg extended, and the two feet on the chest and legs of the elephant-headed god.

After finishing speaking, Jiuyou continued to ask: "How?" Do you see the shadow of the Demon Lord from the Great Black Heaven? ”

Qin Zhen felt that the meaning of the thing in Da Heitian's hand seemed to be somewhat similar to that of the Demon Lord, but ......

At this time, Gu Jie's words were reversed for Qin Zhen to say the next thoughts. I saw that Lao Gu scratched his head at this time and said, "I don't know anything else, but this appearance is really not compatible with the Demon Lord." It can be said that there is no place like it! Except that the Buddha is black, the Demon King is also black, and I can't find any similarities. ”

Qin Zhen praised Lao Gu in his heart, because this kind of embarrassing words should be left to Lao Gu to say! It would be more appropriate for someone like him to say this, and there is absolutely no one to laugh at......

Jiuyou lowered his eyebrows and smiled lightly, smiling without saying a word. For people like Lao Gu, there is no need to explain.

Qin Zhen listened to the Sanskrit sounds that still seemed to float around, so he asked Jiuyou, "What is this voice?" Where did it come from. ”

Jiuyou looked up at the top of the tower and said silently: "Hum Ah, Mahakaraya, Huh." When she thought like this, Qin Zhen and the others were even more confused. But if you listen carefully, it sounds very similar to the Sanskrit sound that lingers in the air!

Jiuyou explained, "This is the Great Black Sky Heart Mantra. As she spoke, as if she remembered something, she lowered her head and took out a note from between her cuffs, then handed it to Qin Zhen and said, "I thought I would be able to hand it over to him in time, but I didn't expect them to go in earlier than scheduled." ”

Qin Zhen took it and saw that there were obvious traces of folds on this note. It is natural to think that this is the letter brought back by the carrier pigeon of Jiuyou.

When I opened it, there was only a short vertical line of words on it: Xia Yudong, you must come out alive for me.

After Qin Zhen saw this short sentence, he only thought of one person—Juntian. So he handed the note to Gu Jie, who had been stretching his neck and staring at him, and then asked Jiuyou, "This is written by Juntian?" ”

"Hmm. It's him. Jiuyou replied faintly.

Qin Zhen thought about it, after all, there were not many people who could talk to Yudong with this kind of attitude. And it is estimated that only Juntian can know where Yudong is now. It's really embarrassing for him, he can really get in touch!

But thinking about the vast supernatural powers of that handsome little brother, it is estimated that if he wants to contact someone, no matter which deep mountain and old forest you are in, it will not be a problem.

At this time, Gu Jie and Jiang Qi also finished studying the short line of words, and Lao Gu asked a little excitedly, "Hey?" can take Dong Shao in his eyes like this, it must be a handsome little brother! can still be so domineering, then it seems that he is fine! That's great... Great..."Lao Gu sighed to himself.

Ever since they learned that Juntian sacrificed his life to force the Nine Dragons curse for them, to be honest, they were all worried that Juntian would die sooner than them. Now that I have seen his letter, I can feel a little relieved. If they insist on persevering, they will be able to be safer for the time being, as long as Yudong comes out. At least, for eighty-one days, the Nine Dragons Curse will not take their lives.

Jiuyou took a closer look at the curse marks on their arms that were obviously fading, nodded and said a few more words, and then turned to leave. However, this 'female bodhisattva' was really considerate enough, and knew that persuasion would not persuade them to leave, so he asked Ka Yuqi to pack all the food and bring it to them.

There are no conditions here, otherwise, in front of the Demon Lord's Nanzhao Tower, a bonfire will definitely be set up at this moment, and a tent will be set up.

Lao Gu was smoking a cigarette there, chatting with Jiang Qi for a while, in order to balance the anxiety and tension in his heart.

And Qin Zhen was sitting in front of the tower gate, leaning against the railing, quietly distracted. In fact, he didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, his heart was very empty, and a huge old banyan tree that could walk occasionally appeared in his mind. and Yudong's vague and somewhat sad words.
