Chapter Eighty-Five: A Familiar Back
Xiao Lianshan was still a little puzzled, and he didn't know why Lan Qing's eyes were full of surprise and admiration, and even senior masters like Kong Guan and Wei Yu took the lead in giving me applause.
"Why didn't I understand, brother, what did you do?"
"I don't understand yet, you're stupid." Gu Anqi glanced at him and said excitedly. "There is a saying that you should have heard, it is easier to please God, and it is difficult to send God."
Lan Qing nodded, and Xiao Lianshan, who was unhurried, said.
"Calling the wind and calling the rain is already an unfathomable spell, you can see that Ouyang Cuo has been preparing for so long, this kind of spell that violates the normal laws of nature requires great skill and cultivation, Ouyang Cuo's calling for wind and rain is already at the upper level, but Yan Hui broke his spell with five grains of rice, who do you say is strong and who is weak?"
"The five red-threaded puppets on the Ouyang wrong altar represent wind, clouds, thunder, lightning, and rain, and it is rare for him to ask the gods to rain, but the wild goose returns to the broken line to send the gods, to put it bluntly, it is the one who can attract it, and then it will come and go, but don't forget, it is the god who forgives the wild goose, and such an ability is simply unheard of!" Gu Anqi pursed her lips and said happily.
I smiled disapprovingly and said, "They did everything they had to do before, and I didn't know what to do, so I tried it, hehe." ”
Ouyang Cuo lowered his head and thought about it, and said coldly.
"Since the competition is over, according to the rules of the competition, please ask Uncle Gu to decide whether you win or lose!"
Ouyang Cuo deliberately said the four words of the rules of the competition very seriously, I understood what he meant in my heart, Gu Xiaotian said that the rules of the competition are who make everyone cool and who wins, although Teng Guoyuan only lasted for five minutes, but there is also a wind blowing, Ouyang Cuo's rain is really falling, but although I broke Ouyang Cuo's spell, but now the sun has evaporated the rain on the ground, and it is even hotter here.
I won the spell against the others, but I lost the competition!
The people in the courtyard listened to it and understood what Ouyang Cuo meant, Teng Guoyuan, who was sitting on the chair next to him, said with a faint smile.
"No need to adjudicate, Teng's skills are not as good as others, compared to the two of you who lost, I lost this competition!"
Ouyang Cuo smiled, shook his head, and said in a cold voice.
"Mr. Teng, why should he be humble, the rules of the competition are who makes everyone cool and who wins, Mr. Teng is flat and gathers the clouds, everyone present has a deep understanding, how can he say that his skills are not as good as others."
I know that Ouyang Cuo's words are obviously for Gu Xiaotian, of course, he doesn't really want to elevate Teng Guoyuan, but just let a person who can only hold out for five minutes win, and fight him in the final battle, there is no pressure on Ouyang Cuo.
The people in the courtyard began to whisper, each with their own opinions, and there were many people who were on Ouyang Cuo's side, after all, Ouyang Cuo's call for wind and rain was really raining, and everyone did feel the coolness that penetrated their hearts.
I looked at Kong Guan and Wei Yu with a melancholy look, but when it came to the rules of the competition, I did lose.
Gu Xiaotian let out a long sigh and said loudly after hesitating for a moment.
"There are no rules, there is no circle, the rules are set by me, I must abide by them, since the rules of the competition are who make everyone cool and who wins, now I believe everyone also knows ......"
There was obviously a trace of regret in Gu Xiaotian's voice, and there was a noisy discussion in the courtyard, and I saw the corners of Ouyang Cuo's mouth slowly curling, and a smug smile hung on it.
"The competition isn't over yet!"
The courtyard suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes fell on me, so far I really haven't seen how much this competition is winning or losing, but I really don't like the smile on Ouyang Cuo's face, and as soon as I said it, I saw Ouyang Cuo's smile sink.
I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and stared for a moment, then my eyes suddenly opened, picked up the peachwood sword that Ouyang had left on the altar, and read it aloud while dancing the sword.
"Ziwei commanded all gods. Flying to Xunhu, thunder sounds. The palace rains and rushes away from the fire. The clouds fly in the sky, and the thunder and lightning follow. The four generals of the demon are in charge of Lei Gong. The dragon and tiger riders, the ghosts are nowhere to be found. Pierce the rock and break the temple, slay the monster and capture the dragon. Subdue demons and evil, cure diseases and eliminate evil. Three or five soldiers, Dabu Weixiong. Follow my command, and quickly establish miraculous achievements. Haste as a law. ”
After reciting the incantation, I wiped my forehead with two fingers, flipped the rice calligraphy and painting in my hand with my blood-stained fingers, and suddenly threw the rice into the sky.
In a moment, the grains of rice fell from the sky in the crowd, and I stood without saying a word.
The people in the courtyard all looked at each other, not knowing for a moment what I was going to do.
After I saw Kong Guan and Wei Yu glancing at each other, I slowly opened my mouth wide, raised my head to look at the sky, very surprised, and a little puzzled as if I was waiting for something.
A hint of heart-deep coolness hit, but it was not the coolness brought by the wind before, it was completely a kind of coldness that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and slowly the coolness became biting, like a cold wind, like a knife cut on the skin, there was a feeling of pain.
Xiao Lianshan touched his forehead and said to Gu Anqi with a frown.
"I'll go back to the room first, it seems that I'm really sick, I have a high fever and I am delirious, and I have hallucinations!"
"What's wrong?" Gu Anqi hurriedly lowered her head and touched his forehead, and asked with concern. "It's the same as just now, is it getting worse in the rain?"
"I'm cold, like falling into an ice hole." Xiao Lianshan said tremblingly with his hands on his shoulders. "And...... And just now I saw a snowflake fall on the back of my hand...... Hehe, do you think I'm burned, I can see snowflakes on a hot day. ”
After Xiao Lianshan finished speaking, he found that no one was paying attention to him, and when he looked up, he saw that the eyes of the people around him fell on Gu Anqi's fingers, and their eyes were full of shock and confusion.
A crystal crystal in the shape of a crystal that was crystal clear was slowly melting at Gu Anqi's fingertips.
Snowflakes?
Snowflakes!
Snowflakes are dancing in the July sky!
There was a moment of silence in the crowd, but it was like a pot smashing open, and they were all stunned by this strange sight, and the people in the courtyard raised their hands to welcome the falling snowflakes.
When the trees and flowers are gradually covered with snow, the courtyard is like a cold winter scenery, July is thin, the sudden snowfall, has made people forget that this is still the middle of summer, not to mention cool, I believe everyone is nostalgic for the heat just now, almost everyone is shivering in the cold of the wind and snow.
Gu Xiaotian had always been calm and calm, but at this moment he stretched out his hand like a child, until the snowflakes fell on the palm of his hand, and then slowly melted, and the biting chill penetrated into his heart through his skin, and he was completely sure that he was not mistaken.
"Enough, enough!" Gu Xiaotian smiled faintly and shook his head and said to me. "My old bones can't stand your toss like this, stop!"
Not only Gu Xiaotian, maybe everyone thinks like this, and they really can't stand the cold.
I was a little overwhelmed and hesitated, the flying snow in July is a law against the sky, maybe I am really the emperor's order, I have the protection of the stars, I can pardon the gods, so that I can attract wind and snow, but my Dao cultivation does not have the ability to stop the flying snowflakes, this can only be done by people with extremely high Dao cultivation.
Maybe it's because I'm really doing it well, and after a few minutes, no more snowflakes are falling in the sky, and the biting cold wind just now is gone, and if it weren't for the snow that is slowly melting and fading on the branches and leaves of the trees, it's hard to believe the strange scenery just now.
Gu Xiaotian stood up from the chair with satisfaction and said calmly.
"The winner has been decided, Qin Yanhui and Ouyang Cuo will have a final showdown, as for the rules, you will know tomorrow."
I didn't listen to what Gu Xiaotian said at all, the moment the snow stopped, I saw a familiar back in the crowd, thin, obscene and dirty, one sleeve swinging back and forth empty, I remember that step, the day he cut off my fingers, I lay on the ground and watched his back disappear from my sight.
I pushed aside the crowd around me and rushed out, the huge courtyard was full of people cheering for me, in the noisy cheers I could no longer find the back, I secretly smiled bitterly in my heart, my expression was a little desolate, he was just a fool of those honest mountain people, how could he appear here.
I looked down at my severed finger and suddenly realized that I missed him a little.
"What are you looking at?" Yue Qianling walked over and asked.
"I didn't ...... Nothing, I recognized the wrong person. ”
