Chapter Thirty-Four: The Turtle of the Heavenly Pond

The old man, who was called "Lao Wang Ba" by the Tianchi boy, stretched out his left hand and held the cane on the candlestick, his fingers looked very old under the illumination of the pearl, and through the skin, he could clearly see the bone fingers inside. The old man walked towards the gate with his cane, ignoring the Tianchi boy and Tang Xi.

"Old liar, who is this old man?" Tang Xi asked cautiously as he followed behind the Tianchi boy.

The black-haired old man turned to stare at Tang Xi, his cloudy eyes disappeared, and he was replaced by a pair of clear and bright eyes, as if he could see through everything. Tang Xi was stared at by the old man, and his body involuntarily took a step back.

"I don't even know what to call the old man, I must have been deceived by the little old immortal again!" The black-haired old man turned his head and continued: "The old man's name is Tianchi Xuangui, you can call me Grandpa Turtle in the future! ”

After Tang Xi heard this, he didn't dare to laugh out loud if he wanted to laugh. He secretly said in his heart: "What turtle grandfather, he really is the eighth turtle king." ”

"Old turtle, do you want to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, you are from the elders, be careful that the master knocks you to death in the sky. "Tianchi Boy is not happy.

When Tianchi Xuangui heard Tianchi Boy say Master, he showed respect, and after bowing to the top, he said, "Let's call me Uncle Turtle!"

Tang Xi looked at the black and white in front of him, and he didn't understand what was going on at all. After entering the stone gate, there is another stone staircase that spirals down, leading to the bottomless bottom. At the edge of the stone staircase, there is a three-foot-high stone pier, and the stone pier is also carved with a dramatic grimace, which looks eerie. On each stone pier, two iron chains as thick as an arm are worn. Iron chains and stone staircases lead to the endless abyss below.

Tang Xi stood on the stone staircase, showing curiosity, but he didn't dare to look down. In the end, he couldn't hold back the curious Tang Xi, his left hand tightly grasped the Tianchi boy's shirt, and his right hand grabbed the iron chain, looking down. I couldn't see anything but a heat wave.

"Go down by yourselves, the old man is afraid of the heat. Tianchi Xuangui took a step back and said.

"Old Wangba, the old man still has something to do, and I don't have time to accompany him, so I'll leave it to you here. After the Tianchi boy finished speaking, he dropped Tang Xi and disappeared into the stone ladder.

Tang Xi, who was confused, looked at the disappearance of the Tianchi boy, as if he had lost his support, and looked at the stone gate with his eyes, at a loss.

"Don't go, old immortal. "The strength of the Tianchi Xuan Turtle came from nowhere, and its speed increased instantly, chasing in the direction where the Tianchi boy disappeared.

Tang Xi watched the two old men disappear, and also walked out of the stone gate and came to the hall. Looking at the statue wearing a robe, it seems that in the statue, there is a trace of kindness and harmony. Tang Xi bowed to the statue again and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

When Tang Xi walked halfway, he heard Tianchi Xuangui sighing and scolding: "This old immortal, is he going to tire the old man to death, come if you want, and leave if you want." ”

"Stinky boy, help the old man. Tang Xi looked at the Tianchi Turtle, smiled slightly, and was about to pass by, but was blocked by the Tianchi Turtle.

In Tang Xi's thoughts, the Tianchi boys were gone, and there was no need for him to stay, so Tang Xi walked out of the cave, but he didn't think that the Tianchi Xuan Turtle blocked his way again.

Tang Xi helped up the Tianchi Xuangui who was sitting on the ground, and then carried him back to the hall and put him on the futon before preparing to leave again.

"Stinky boy, aren't you detoxifying?" Tianchi Xuangui's words interrupted Tang Xi, who was about to leave.

Tang Xi stopped and looked at the old man in front of him in surprise. Tang Xi suspected that this old man was really good at pinching and calculating, and he actually knew the purpose of his coming here.

"Look at the way you look, you know that the old immortal didn't say anything to you. After looking at Tang Xi's expression, Tianchi Xuangui continued: "Do you believe that there are demons in this world. ”

Tang Xi just stared at the Tianchi Xuan Turtle, nodded, and did not speak. Tang Xiben is full of curiosity about this world. It was because of curiosity that Tang Xi knew that there were really jumping corpses in this world. It was precisely because of curiosity that Tang Xi was deceived by the Tianchi boy into Taoyuan Village. Tang Xi is always recalling the fifth uncle's sentence "Curiosity kills cats." But Tang Xi will always be attracted to curious things, as if all this can't be changed.

"Stinky boy, come here, the old man will tell you a story!" Tianchi Xuangui beckoned to Tang Xi.

When it came to the story, Tang Xi showed a hint of excitement. When I was a child, I grew up listening to the stories of my fifth uncle, and as I got older, Tang Xi didn't seem to have heard a story for a long time.

Tang Xi sat cross-legged in front of the Tianchi Xuangui, his hands supporting his face, and seemed to be ready to listen to the story.

"Do you know who this stone statue is?" asked Tianchi Xuangui as he pointed to the stone statue and asked with respect.

Tang Xi glanced at the stone statue, and then at the Tianchi Xuan Tortoise, as if waiting for an answer.

"This stone statue is my master Li Chunfeng. Tianchi Xuangui said with a look of respect.

After Tang Xi heard this, it was like a stone startling a thousand waves, as if he didn't believe his ears. At this time, Tang Xi was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and it was as if someone had poured a basin of ice water from head to toe, and his whole body was numb.

What kind of person is Li Chunfeng, that's a god. Tang Xi still remembers that the fifth uncle once said that the world where Tang Yi is circulated is inseparable from Li Chunfeng, and it can be said that Tang Yi is the sect founded by Li Chunfeng. Five hundred years ago, after Emperor Taizong sat firmly in the country, he canceled the army Tang Yi. The rivers and lakes are not calm, and they are still full of rotting corpses. Li Chunfeng wrote to Taizong, and only then did he restart Tang Yi and appear among the people.

When he was in the ancestral hall of heaven and earth, the fifth uncle told Tang Xi a lot of stories about Li Chunfeng, saying that Li Chunfeng was proficient in astronomy, calendar, yin and yang, and Taoism. In particular, "Pushing the Back Picture" was a big turmoil during the Song Taizong period. Tang Xi didn't expect to see a stone statue of Li Chunfeng himself here five hundred years later.

Tang Xi recovered from the shock, walked to the stone statue, lit the incense, and bowed again. Tang Xi's eyes stared at the stone statue, as if he wanted to remember what this person looked like.

"That old immortal didn't tell you?" Tianchi Xuangui looked at Tang Xi's surprised expression and asked.

"No, the old liar never told me, not even why I wanted to change my blood. Tang Xi sat back and replied.

Tang Xi's answer, Tianchi Xuan Turtle was not surprised.

"Hehe, silly boy. But the old man will tell you. Tianchi Xuangui continued: "Actually, the old man is not a human, he is really a turtle. ”

"Haha. I've never heard of someone saying that they are turtles, are you something, and what do you say about me. After Tang Xi listened to Tianchi Xuangui's words, he changed his past, as if he heard a joke, hugged his stomach and laughed.

In the memory of Tianchi Xuangui, he has never been ridiculed like this. At this time, he was ridiculed by a young man who was not more than eighteen years old. Tianchi Xuan Turtle, with a rough breath, seemed to be very angry.

Tianchi Xuangui roared, and all the black clothes on his body were shattered, revealing his true body.

Tang Xi looked at the scene in front of him, and his whole person was completely stunned, as if he had forgotten to breathe.
