Volume 1, Chapter 63: Uncovering the Corner of the Conspiracy
"Mo'er...... Have you regained your memory?!"
The girl's smile was like a flower, but the amorous look in her eyes was rapidly fading. He Zichuan's face changed slightly, he stepped in front of the girl, grabbed her hands, and said hurriedly: "Mo'er, what's wrong with you?"
The unique look of Moyan in the girl's eyes disappeared, the innocent romance belonging to the girl reappeared, and the smiling face like a hibiscus out of the water became pure and innocent again, and returned to the ignorant and curious state of the girl Mo'er, as if Moyan's charm was just a flash in the pan and fleeting.
The girl's eyes gradually cleared, and when she saw He Zichuan looking at herself nervously, she was a little inexplicable, and she asked softly: "Pervert, are you taking advantage of others again?"
He Zichuan's heart ached for no reason, his hands retracted like lightning as if they had been stung by poisonous needles, and there was a complex look in his eyes when he looked at the girl.
The girl was stunned in her heart, hesitated for a moment, and then pretended to be casual and asked, "Hey, pervert, I have a question for you." ”
"You say. ”
"If one day, I mean if, I can't recover my memory, or...... Or just become a different person, will you still like me?"
He Zichuan's face turned pale, he wanted to be calm, but he couldn't hide his angry and corrupt attitude, he shouted: "If it's okay, just read more books, don't think nonsense all day long." ”
He didn't expect the girl to ask such a question, "Is the person in front of him really Mo Yan?" This question is what He Zichuan is most worried about, but he doesn't dare to think about it, he thought that he had already buried this guess deep in his heart, but he didn't expect that when it was inadvertently turned out by the girl, it would make him panic so much.
"Oh......" The girl's eyes were lowered, and a hint of loss appeared on her face, but it quickly disappeared. When she raised her head again, she put on an innocent smile again, and asked He Zichuan casually: "Seeing that you have been in a daze for a long time with that book, have you gained a lot?"
He Zichuan smiled reluctantly, and hurriedly borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and changed the topic: "The harvest is indeed not small, this place is like a treasure house, I really hope to read all the books here." ”
The girl smiled and nodded, "Anyway, we don't have anywhere else to go, since you like it, I'll accompany you here to read." ”
"But ......"
Seeing that He Zichuan was a little hesitant, the girl said again: "You go to read a book, I also want to know more about this world, and I can also learn more from books." ”
He Zichuan nodded, walked to the stone tablet that recorded the Origin Heart Sutra, and studied it carefully. After a few glances, he suddenly felt that a beam of eyes had been staring at him, and when he turned his head, it turned out that it was a girl sitting on the stone steps not far from him, staring at him silently with her hands and knees.
Seeing He Zichuan looking, the girl showed a bright smile. He Zichuan smiled: "Why do you keep looking at me?"
The girl said: "I don't know, maybe I don't have a good memory, I want to see more, I'm afraid I will forget it one day." ”
He Zichuan reprimanded: "Naughty again, talking nonsense." ”
The girl smiled and stuck out her tongue, it was very cute.
He Zichuan saw that the girl was fine, so he sat down cross-legged and began to study the Origin Heart Sutra again, but the girl behind him was still staring at him intently, the smile on her face had long since disappeared, her eyebrows frowned, and she murmured softly: "Awesome strange sister, don't you rush out, okay?Just give me a little more time, a little bit, I want to remember him, remember this world......"
The days of cultivation are always long, and although there is no alternation of the sun and moon in the pavilion, it is difficult to accurately calculate how much time has passed, but for a high-ranking monk like He Zichuan, this is not a difficulty, and he has his own set of methods for measuring time.
In the first month after entering the Lingering Pavilion, he carefully studied the full set of the Origin Heart Sutra, and after he had completely understood the entire exercise, he spent another three months decomposing and studying the Heart Sutra according to his own situation, and gradually began to try to cultivate. Since he had only practiced the Qingfeng Decision in the Origin Heart Sutra before, at this stage, he focused on completing the Heart Sutra, and on a solid and solid foundation, his mind cultivation could be described as a thousand miles in a day, and after four months of hard work, he finally cultivated the complete Origin Heart Sutra.
After that, he spent eight months carefully studying the Qiankun Trapped Dragon Technique, the Turtle Breath Armor Casting Skill, the Supreme True Spirit Dafa, and the Heavenly Punishment Demon Suppression Technique.
He Zichuan knows the truth of being greedy and chewing too much, and unlike the Origin Heart Sutra, he only studied and sorted out these four first-grade exercises, but did not practice, but even so, he has also achieved a proficient grasp of the principles of these four exercises, the operation mode of mana, and the cultivation ingenuity, etc., and it is not an exaggeration to say that he knows it well. As long as he has time to spare, he will be able to use the present to lay the foundation and learn these exercises very quickly.
After that, He Zichuan began to study all kinds of exercises of the five immortal sects on the shelf, and in the first four months, he studied a total of 179 volumes of the second-grade exercises including the four categories of mind, body, technique, and secret arts, and in the next eight months, he studied 1,060 volumes of the three-grade exercises, and in the following year, he studied 7,163 volumes of the fourth-grade to sixth-grade exercises non-stop. At this point, he had studied more than two-thirds of the exercises in the main hall, which made his understanding of the exercises in the world reach a very broad level. If you just talk about theory, I am afraid that the four masters, including Jin Zun and Juling Zhenjun, will be inferior to him.
When He Zichuan finished reading the last book of the Six-Rank Exercises, he picked up the Extreme Yin and Saint Yang Demon Exercises again, and it took a year to read it. With his previous foundation, this time he had a new understanding of this exercise, and found that it was fundamentally different from all the exercises he had seen before, as if it had opened a door to a new world.
If the previous exercises were to teach people how to sharpen themselves step by step, realize the Great Dao, become immortals, and then ascend to become gods, then this exercise is to teach people how to create their own rules step by step, and incarnate into the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
One is to learn and imitate, and gradually let yourself master the rules, and the other is to directly create the rules, incarnate the rules, and make judgments. This is also the reason why the power of the Extreme Yin and Saint Yang Demon Skill is so huge. It's a pity that with He Zichuan's current ability, he still can't practice this exercise, maybe even if he can, he will give up because the cultivation method of this exercise is too evil.
However, although he was unable to cultivate the Extreme Yin and Saint Yang Demon Skill, he still gained a lot from his study in the past year, and many problems that he couldn't figure out before were inspired by this exercise, by looking at the world from a different angle, he could see more transparently and more completely, his Dao heart gradually stabilized, and his mana became more mellow, because many hidden dangers caused by the rapid improvement of cultivation were also eliminated. Now if he encounters an opponent like Ji Yanlan in Southern Xinjiang again, I am afraid that the life and death of the other party will only be between his thoughts. Even if it is the incarnation of the late stage of the Holy Emperor's Holy Realm, don't try to take advantage of him.
In the fifth year of lingering in the pavilion, He Zichuan finally stopped studying the exercises, and instead specialized in the books of the formation method, he was like a sponge, meticulous, non-stop, tirelessly absorbing the treasures in this hall......
In the Heavenly Hades Temple, a monk with long hair and shawl and a beard had just flown out of a large hall, and was about to rush in a certain direction, but suddenly stopped, he looked back, looked at the exit of a corridor, and said loudly: "Which friend has arrived? Please show up." ”
In the passage, the demon wind was fierce, and a black shadow flew out, and the black bat's wings were greatly opened, emitting a sharp birdsong, which was the monster with the head of a crow's head, the scourge crow.
The caven flew in the air, staring coldly at the scumbag-faced monk in front of him, and drank, "Who are you?"
The bearded monk didn't seem to be the slightest bit frightened by the vicious evil crow, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "In the Diving Dragon Yuan Duanmuyun, Your Excellency can ignore the ban on the sky, is it the Heavenly Guardian?"
The crow was surprised, "Do you know the Heavenly Guardian?"
The monk bowed to the crow, turned his hand and took out a jade plaque, and said, "I have been ordered to come here to do some trivial things, this is a gift from Lord Hong, and I also ask you to take a look." ”
"Nether Order, are these little things really related to that guy?" The crow looked at the jade plate in the hand of the scumbag, was slightly stunned, and said loudly to the scumbag: "Since you have the Netherworld order, the deity will not kill you today, you go and do your own business, don't get in the way." ”
"Wait!" said the crow was about to leave, when the bearded monk suddenly stopped him.
"Huh?" The crow stared, and a terrifying spiritual pressure instantly erupted in his body, shocking the bearded monk to take three steps back before he could barely stabilize his body.
The bearded monk was startled, and the spiritual pressure in his body was released without reservation, and it was almost the same as that of the calamity. The calamity crow didn't expect that this guy in front of him was already close to the late stage of the transformation realm, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but he heard him say: "Zunwei, please calm your anger, dare to ask Zunwei if you want to go to the Pavilion of Lingering and Forgetting?"
The raven sneered, "Yes and what, not what?"
Monk Hu Zheng saluted respectfully and said, "If not, I would like to apologize to you for Fang Cai's recklessness, and if so, please take a step back for the sake of Qianlong Yuan's face." ”
"Hahahaha......" Hearing this, the crow laughed wildly: "I don't know what the deity of the hidden dragon yuan is, you even dare to make a big statement in front of the deity, thinking that with the Nether Order, the deity will not dare to kill you?"
Monk Hu's face changed, and he said coldly: "If Zunwei insists on going his own way, then he can only be offended. As he spoke, the purple light in his hand flashed, and he conjured up a spear, staring coldly at the raven.
Before the crow could speak, a stunning stunner dressed in green clothes and upside down all beings appeared on the ground below him, which was the green girl.
"It's really long-winded, I'll leave it to you here, I'll go first. As soon as the young girl appeared, she dropped this sentence and disappeared again. The bearded monk didn't have a chance to stop him from beginning to end, making his face turn blue and facing the crow a little more solemn.
And the calamity crow in mid-air was full of evil breath and looked at him with a sneer.
On the mountain road that must be passed through to linger and forget to return to the pavilion, a yellow-faced old man, a purple-robed man, and a pretty young woman are waiting to guard this passage.
After the tea, the yellow-faced old man suddenly made a gesture in the air, and said loudly: "We are disciples of Qianlong Yuan, and I also ask Lord Zunwei to show up." ”
The voice of the yellow-faced old man echoed in the empty mountains, I don't know who he was talking to, the purple-robed man and the pretty young woman glanced at each other, and seemed to see a look of surprise in each other's eyes, only the yellow-faced old man still looked like an old god.
Just when the purple-robed man and the pretty young woman showed some impatience, ten zhang in front of the three of them, a pretty figure in green clothes suddenly appeared on the originally empty stone steps, who could it be if it wasn't a green girl?
The young girl appeared and sneered: "I'm curious, what kind of sect is that Hidden Dragon Yuan in your mouth, and you can even grasp my whereabouts?"
The yellow-faced old man said humbly: "Lord Qing's words are serious, we just received a summons and came here in advance to wait, how can we really grasp your whereabouts." ”
The young girl was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "You know me?"
The yellow-faced old man smiled: "Before leaving, the family master had introduced one or two to several disciples. ”
The young girl's eyes narrowed and asked, "Who is your master?"
The yellow-faced old man said: "The family teacher's surname is Wu, and his double name is Ximo, and he is known as the Red Flame Golden Dragon King. He said that when you were in power, he was just a nobody, so he knew you, and you probably didn't know him. ”
The young girl was puzzled that she had never heard of such a name, but the explanation of the yellow-faced old man just relieved her. She smiled and said, "Since you know me, didn't your master remind you that you must stay away when you see me, so as not to be sucked by me?"
Although the young girl did not do it on purpose, her charming smile still made the three monks immediately feel red-faced, and even the young woman was no exception.
The yellow-faced old man hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at the young girl's face bewitching all beings, and said with a wry smile: "Master once said, don't embarrass you until you have to. ”
The young girl sneered: "Your master is so angry, what's the matter? Are you planning to embarrass me now? Just a few of you?"
The yellow-faced old man said: "The stakes are very high, and we are forced to wait." The master said, if it was countless thousands of years ago, let alone us, even if his old man met you, he could only turn around and run, but now most of your mana is still sealed, and your cultivation is only around the transformation realm, although we can't help you, it's okay to hold you for a while. After saying that, the three monks released spiritual pressure one after another, and what was surprising was that these three monks who didn't seem to be amazing all had the cultivation of the transformation realm, and the yellow-faced old man led by him had even reached the late stage of the transformation realm.
The young girl's face sank when she heard this, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't expect that after so many years, there are still people who know me so well......"
Lingering outside the pavilion, a figure quietly stopped, it was the white-haired old man who came from the big pit non-stop. He held the Heavenly Immortal Pearls in both hands, and as soon as he stopped, he immediately looked into the Heavenly Immortal Pearls, and only after a while did he take care of his calm and fluctuating breath, and muttered to himself: "Fortunately, those two have not left yet, just wait for a few senior brothers to arrive, and set up an ambush in advance, and they can capture that kid in one fell swoop." As he spoke, he looked left and right, and whispered to himself, "I'll find a place to hide first, so that I can make some preparations for the ambush," and after saying that, he swept to the side of the Lingering Pavilion.
Another year passed in the pavilion, during which He Zichuan studied more than 4,000 formation classics, and his understanding of various formations also reached a new height.
On this day, He Zichuan studied the formation as usual, but his face suddenly changed, and he withdrew from the book. The girl sitting next to her asked in surprise, "Pervert, what's wrong with you?"
He Zichuan's face was cloudy, and he replied faintly after a while: "Mo'er, I'm afraid we have to go." ”
The girl was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"
He Zichuan said with a solemn expression: "Do you remember what I told you a few years ago, about the destruction of Zhixisha Valley, one of the five great immortal sects?" Seeing the girl nodding, He Zichuan continued: "I have read about a formation in these classics before, called the Seven Star Soul Snatching Array, which can seize the luck of the sacrificed through the way of sacrificing monks. The monks above the Western Saint Realm, including those who were hidden in the world, all disappeared overnight, very similar to the situation of the Seven Star Soul Snatching Array, if my prediction is correct, I am afraid that the West Sand Valley will be destroyed by this formation!"
The girl blinked her big beautiful eyes and asked puzzledly, "Then what does this have to do with whether we are inseparable from us?"
He Zichuan exhaled a long breath of turbidity, and said slowly: "Just now I read another formation in this classic, called the Great Array of Extermination, this is a very powerful sealing array, and it can even seal an interface in it, and the thing needed to open this circle is very special, that is, luck." If my calculations are correct, the amount of luck required to open this circle is just roughly the same as the amount of luck that can be obtained by using the Seven Star Soul Snatcher Array to sacrifice to the Xisha Valley. ”
The girl covered her red lips with her white and tender little hands, and exclaimed, "You mean, the mysterious organization that killed you may be about to open that great array of extermination?"
He Zichuan nodded and said, "You're right, originally I always thought that they were aiming at the Five Great Immortal Sects, but now it seems that they are very likely to want to unlock a certain extinction and conceal the world, and plot to be sealed in it." ”
The girl said, "Shall we stop them?"
He Zichuan smiled bitterly: "With us alone, I'm afraid we can't stop it, but we have to figure out who they are and what they are plotting?"
The girl asked, "And where are we going?"
He Zichuan pointed to a stone tablet in front of the bookshelf and said: "Then it says that the Heavenly Hades Temple is the control hub of this Nine Secret Mansion where we are located, so I think if there is really a Great Array of Extermination and Concealment in this session, there will definitely be a record in the Heavenly Hades Temple." ”
"Where is it?"
He Zichuan said word by word: "The king's bedroom, the palace of the Hades King!"
The girl wondered, "Isn't the dormitory a place to sleep?
He Zichuan said with a smile: "Because it is impossible for him to stay here all the time, if he wants to control such a vast realm, he will definitely leave a corresponding formation or magic weapon to record the bits and pieces of what happened, the power of the Great Array of Exterminating the World is too domineering, and it is likely to hurt the foundation of the Nine Secret Mansions, so it will definitely be recorded." As long as there is a record, other clues will be found. It's just that we've been delayed here for five whole years, and I don't know what's going on out there now, so hopefully it's still too late. ”
The girl smiled: "Without further ado, we will leave now, it must be too late." ”
He Zichuan nodded and got up, he wanted to use that broken stone to take away most of the cheats, but now he didn't have time to choose, and secondly, he had already received too many gifts from here, and he really didn't want to ask for anything greedily.
He thought about it, threw the Extreme Yin and Saint Yang Demon Skill into the stone, and took out the Qingfeng Sword that had no spirituality, and said to himself: "It should be kept as a souvenir" After speaking, he put the Qingfeng Sword into the broken stone, and then he reluctantly looked around in the hall that had made him linger for five years, and said to the girl without regret: "Let's go." ”
