Chapter Eighty-Four: The Seven-Story Pagoda
"Dragon tendon?", Zheng Yan was also a little surprised, and then thought that since it was the remains of a real dragon but he didn't see the dragon tendon dragon scales, he thought it had been taken away at first, but if he thought about it, he would not be able to trample on the corpse of someone else, so who was that person just now?
"It should be the true dragon soul that was suppressed", Zheng Yuchan probably understood the doubts in Zheng Yan's heart,
Zheng Yan stood up from the stone pile and shook a spear flower, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, this gun shaft or dragon tendon feels warm and delicate and tenacious, and can freely control the swing amplitude and even be used as a whip, but it also gives people a hard and solid feeling, without worrying about breaking and breaking, it is enough to support the impact of any force, and the place where the gun shaft and the gun head are combined seems to be completely integrated, it is really magical,
Zheng Yuchan looked at it carefully and said, "You inject the true yuan into the body of the gun a little bit, it doesn't matter if you have less."
Zheng Yan hasn't opened a few acupuncture points now, the true yuan can only barely seep out through the skin, and its practical true qi should also be okay, the nature of the true qi is not much different from the true element, it's just a matter of purity, but it's also better controlled, so the pure martial arts will open the acupoints one after another when they reach a certain realm without worrying about the loss of the essence element, but Zheng Yan also cultivated the pill, so he doesn't worry about the true yuan or the release of the true qi,
With the injection of wisps of true yuan, I saw a trace of white lines appear on the pitch-black barrel of the gun, and the white lines expanded into white spots, and then they were submerged in black, "What's going on?"
Zheng Yuchan nodded and muttered, "The clan elders once said that this true dragon is a natural yin and yang dragon."
"Yin Yang Dragon?", Zheng Yan naturally thought of Yin and Yang people, and couldn't help but be a little weird, in fact, the mountain dragon veins in Feng Shui also have the saying of Yin Dragon and Yang Dragon, but what Zheng Yuchan said is obviously not these,
Zheng Yuchan understood his thoughts when she looked at his expression, and said helplessly, "What do you think, most dragons are pure yang bodies, and very small ones may produce pure yin bodies, that is, yin dragons, as for the possibility of the birth of yin and yang dragons, it is said that yin and yang dragons will bring calamity to the dragon clan, or they may be killed as soon as they were born, in short, this one survived for some reason, and lived for many years, until it was suppressed here, I guess this dragon tendon can be turned into a gun barrel or a rope, you might as well try it, it's convenient to take it",
Zheng Yan tried indiscriminately and didn't try again, the gun still has to be stiff, what does it look like when coiled, the length of six feet can't be stretched unless it is in a narrow place, with his current gun skills, he doesn't have much requirements for the environment, and then asked curiously, "Can you sense where that person is now? Why did he suddenly appear and disappear suddenly? Could it be that the dragon saw the head but not the tail?"
Zheng Yuchan looked at Zheng Yan with a look of joy that she couldn't hide, and chuckled, "I kept paying attention to the movements around me when he appeared, but I really didn't notice it at all, and it's still the same, since he doesn't bother us and doesn't care that we break his bones, it shouldn't be much of a problem, by the way, he seems to have picked up something here before?"
Zheng Yanmo held the spear and said casually, "Two emeralds, they should be the eyes of this statue that he destroyed."
Zheng Yuchan looked around thoughtfully, and after a while, she suddenly suddenly said to herself, "Yes, those sacrificed souls must make some arrangements on the stone statue if they want to attach to and control the stone statue to this extent", and began to rummage through the gravel pile,
Zheng Yan finally broke free from the Chadian treasure, and noticed the eightfold treasure letter in the center of the altar, so he walked over to see it.
The altar was full of dragon bones, most of them were a little rotten, thinking that people had just given him a dragon tendon and were really embarrassed to toss other people's bones, Zheng Yan stood on the edge of the altar for a while, and suddenly saw a particularly conspicuous cover in a pile of rotten bones, saying that it was conspicuous because most of the other bones were gray and bleak, and only it had a crystal milky white halo, isn't this the one he threw up before? It is also the initiator who caused the whole skeleton to fall apart, well, the initiator should be himself.
Zheng Yan squatted down and looked around again, hesitated for a moment but picked up this special bone,
"Take it if you want",
Just as Zheng Yan was curious and looked at it, an old voice suddenly came from behind, Zheng Yan hurriedly dropped the bone in his hand, and felt that it was not appropriate, picked it up and wiped it and handed it to the old man who suddenly appeared, and said embarrassedly, "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to know, I'm just curious, it's very special",
The old man took it and looked at it a few times, Zheng Yan nodded and said, "It's really useless for you to take it, little girl, I'll give it to you."
Zheng Yuchan, who was walking cautiously on the side, hurriedly caught the skull thrown by the old man, and for a while she didn't know whether to be excited or refused, and her expression was still a little flustered, but it was rare and cute.
"Dare to ask the seniors' names, why are they here? It looks quite dim here, and it doesn't look like a place to stay", Zheng Yan thought out loud and said something, by the way, to alleviate Zheng Yuchan's confusion,
The old man looked at the bones on the ground and smiled as if he had endless emotion, waved his sleeves, and saw that the bones on the ground suddenly moved, and then continued to be spliced and reorganized, and soon a complete skeleton was formed, except for the skull in Zheng Yuchan's hand,
"It's been more than 3,000 years since the old man was suppressed in this dark place",
"Three thousand years?", Zheng Yuchan, who had calmed down, said in a lost voice, the earliest traces of her observation of this place were about two thousand years ago,
The old man nodded and said, "Female doll, you are not wrong in your judgment before, this place has changed hands several times, and every time you change the owner, you will rearrange it according to their own understanding, in fact, this place already existed when the old man came, but it is not what you see now, these eight stones are the earliest, this altar was built after extracting the spirit of the old man, the following formations are almost the same period as the stone statues, these stone pillars, well, seem to be more ancient." Come and go, mostly want to gain, after all, there are gains and losses, are you ready to lose something?",
Zheng Yan and Zheng Yuchan looked at each other with a little shock and uneasiness, it seems that there is a lot of truth in this, Zheng Yan first asked, "Is there any mechanism here?"
The old man looked at his bones and said softly, "The old man was suppressed here and it was voluntary, thinking that he could use this remnant body to do something for the dragon clan, but the later people scattered the old man's three souls and seven spirits for sacrifice, thanks to you put the bone attached to the old man's soul back to its original place, it can be combined with the three spirits on the bones, so that it can be transformed to unlock other bans, that tendon and that skull are used as a thank you gift, I didn't care about it in a hurry just now, you brought it to the old man to help you practice, so that you can be like an arm",
Zheng Yan handed the spear to the old man and asked curiously, "Who is the person who scattered the soul of the seniors? If the seniors want to go out, can we do anything?"
The old man began to engrave runes on the barrel of the gun, and seemed to smile, "No need, there was a little girl a few years ago, well, there have been many people over the years, and she is the only one who can help the old man get out of trouble, but she didn't help the old man, she just said that if the old man really wants to go out, her son will come in ten or twenty years, and then the old man will decide whether to go out or not", he looked at Zheng Yan as he spoke, and his eyes seemed to say, "You are her son, right?"
Zheng Yan's chest was like a drum, he calmed down, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and said softly, "Then the seniors really don't want to go out?"
The old man engraved the runes and said, "What if you go out and really bring disaster to the dragon clan?" although the patriarch disdains these statements, the old man can't, so it's good like this."
Zheng Yuchan thought so, and there was only reverence on her face,
Zheng Yan didn't know what to say for a while, thought about it, and asked softly with a heart full of entanglement, "What did that little girl gain when she came here, and what did she lose?"
The old man was really laughing this time, "The old man knows that you are her son, she should have left this world by now, right?"
Zheng Yan's nose suddenly felt a little sour, and he would always be touched inexplicably over the years.
The old man shook his head when he saw it, as if he had some nostalgia, "It's a pity." She got the news about her own background, and she also knew some things about the people she cared about, and it was not clear if there was anything else, what was lost...",
"Soul lifespan?", Zheng Yan couldn't feel everything now, just asked softly,
The old man shook his head and said with emotion, "I lost her past, and it was because of this that the old man no longer wanted to go out."
Zheng Yan opened his mouth with difficulty and wanted to ask something more, but his lips moved a few times and finally found that he didn't say anything.
Zheng Yuchan saw it in her eyes and suddenly asked softly, "Do you have to pay something to come here?" or do you want to lose something based on what you have gained?"
The old man smiled and said softly, "It's hard to say, this place is full of a lot of formations, spells, ancient witchcraft, it is these things that decide what to give and what to extract, you two haven't taken anything here yet, this tendon and skull are the old man's things, it has nothing to do with here, if you want to continue to go down and look at something, then you have to think about what you can't lose",
"The real core here is still down there?", Zheng Yuchan's expression seemed to be a little moved,
The old man handed the sacrificial spear to Zheng Yan and taught him a mantra according to which the barrel of the spear could be transformed between soft and hard." This spear head is made of a branch of the old man's tail, so it can be combined with this tendon, you don't have to worry about separating them, the five elements do not invade the ten thousand jun and do not break the blade continuously, and then it is the conversion of yin and yang, this is said to be powerful can reach the sky, it is useless to say that it is not powerful, it depends on how you practice, the reason why you do it to this extent is indeed a bit against the old man's heart, just add to thank your mother for what she did for the dragon clan. If you want to go down then open this box and the passage will be opened, remember, everything has to be weighed before you go to get something, here the living body is especially preferred",
Just when the old man's figure was about to dissipate, Zheng Yan suddenly stepped forward and asked, "How have the predecessors relieved their loneliness in the past three thousand years?"
The old man laughed when he heard this, and his figure completely disappeared with the trembling, leaving only a desolate voice echoing in the hall, "They have created a desolate fantasy for the old man, it has been 30,000 years, who said that there is no meaning in the mirror? When you lose your body and only stay conscious, this is the whole meaning of your existence."
Desolate and desolate, people feel like they are in tears, is this helplessness or self-mockery of the way of heaven? Three thousand years of loneliness, watching themselves slowly decay, the past, the present, there is no future, and the mother not only gave up her past but also gave up her future, what is it for?!
Zheng Yuchan glanced at Zheng Yan with the meaning of inquiry, Zheng Yan came back to his senses and smiled reluctantly, "I have never wanted to explore my mother's footprints or deeds, I just want to remember the mother in my memory, I don't want to know who and what her departure involves, I don't want to hate the whole world, because when my mother left that day, I told me to treat the world well",
Zheng Yuchan said softly: "When I was young, my mother often told us to be kind to others and avoid disasters, and my father said that harmony makes money."
Zheng Yan smiled, took a deep breath and said calmly, "You want to go down, right?"
Zheng Yuchan nodded and said, "The predecessor said that you only need to pay what you have, and it shouldn't involve others, so I can accept it, it's a big deal to increase your knowledge, and I'm also curious about how those ancient witchcraft work."
Zheng Yan walked through the huge keel to the side of the small stone platform, carefully looked at the box in front of him and began to move, pressing the three raised gems on the top and side respectively, listening to the movement a little and pressing the back and front gems, at this time Zheng Yuchan also came over, covered the top of the box with a white palm, and the next moment the hand and the box emitted a ray of light at the same time, it turned out that the box began to disassemble automatically, and in the blink of an eye, it was combined into a dark golden lotus, and the lotus canopy in the middle of the lotus rose up, revealing a delicate and exquisite tower,
The tower is only seven inches high, there are seven floors in total, each floor has a small pane, through the pane you can see the scene inside, it is similar to the layout of the library warehouse, there are a lot of things on the shelves, the two glanced at each other, Zheng Yuchan pointed to the top layer that seemed to be full of books and said, "Let's start from the top floor,
Zheng Yan also wanted to see textual things, subconsciously nodded in agreement, and then she was a little puzzled, isn't she curious about how to get in? This is just a model, where is the entrance? Just thinking about it, her body suddenly tightened, and then she was in an extremely deep and wide library, surrounded by Zheng Yuchan with a look of surprise and heavy bookshelves, and the fragrance of ink and books was simply intoxicating.
