Volume 1 Catechumens Chapter 13 The Land of Inheritance
Anyone who travels knows that it is definitely not a good thing to meet pedestrians in the wilderness.
Those who dare to walk in the wilderness are strong people who have strength and are willing to take risks. Their moral standards are often not so high, because most of them are outlaws who dare to take risks in pursuit of wealth, or they are simply criminals on the run.
If the average person has that kind of ability, where can't they make money? Where is there not a good life? Wilderness is not a good place to be!
The desert is the worst and most dangerous wilderness, and the people who will appear here are certainly the most dangerous.
According to Xiao Buyi's estimate, there are only two kinds of people who can meet in this great desert, either monks who travel back and forth between the land of Kyushu and the western Yunzhou region, or monks who are looking for ruins like himself.
Most of the former are in big trouble and can't get along on their side, and they can almost be equated with "wicked people"; The latter is not necessarily the wicked, but the situation is worse than the wicked.
Whether it is for self-preservation or to compete for the true inheritance of the cloth god appearance, you must be prepared for battle.
He took out his usual back-soil staff, ready to launch this magic staff that condensed tens of thousands of catties of rock and soil at any time to smash the enemy to pieces; At the same time, he prepared a few talismans, ready to use talismans to seize the opportunity.
After everything was ready, he turned to look at Wu Jie, but saw that the sword light in Wu Jie's hand flashed, and the whole person disappeared without a trace, and he couldn't even feel a little breath.
Although he had heard Wu Xie introduce the invisible sword, it was only at this moment that he had witnessed the power of the invisible sword, and he couldn't help but be amazed and envious.
The Great Gate Sect is the Great Gate Sect, and the invisible sword is simply the best choice for home travel to kill people and destroy the mouth, and it is enough to run rampant in the world on his kind of loose cultivation, and it can be described as a treasure in the small sect, but the Great Gate Sect casually used it for his disciples......
Wu Xie has a modest personality, and he has never told him that he is the twenty-seventh generation senior brother of Qingyangguan, so Xiao Buyi subconsciously imagined the depth of the family background of the Great Gate Sect in an exaggerated direction.
Now in his impression, Qingyangguan is already a super tyrant who uses all kinds of rare materials to pave the ground, and the warehouse is messy and full of precious magic weapons.
I have to say, that's how prejudice comes from!
The two waited for a while, and the distant voice gradually approached, but it was a word they didn't understand.
That kind of words are quite awkward, as if they have been cocking their tongues, but they are mixed with a lot of nasal sounds, and there are buzzing echoes from time to time, plus the speed of speech on both sides is extremely fast, no matter how attentive Wu Xie and Xiao Buyi are, they can't hear it.
"Language barrier?" Wu Xie frowned, opened the talisman book, and was about to launch one of the twenty-four spirit runes, Xiao Buyi had already taken the first step, and the two purple talismans flashed, and they understood the conversation between the two people.
"Momuda, you can't escape!"
"You can't kill anyone with your mouth, you've been chasing me for ten days, but you haven't been able to do anything to me."
"If I can't kill you in ten days, I'll chase you for twenty days and thirty days...... There will be a time when you will die at my hands! ”
"It's not far from the country of the east, and when I get to the land of the east, I can just find a place to hide, and you won't even want to find me when the time comes!"
"You, a man from the West Country, also want to hide in the East Country? Look at your face, look at your hair, look at your skin. Even children can see that you are completely different from ordinary people, how can you hide? ”
"I'll find a way."
"I'll kill you before then!"
"The chief killer of the Canaanite Divine Cult, Hehe, used to only shout and kill people on his lips."
"When you are stabbed through the heart by my knife, you will know if I only have the ability to speak!"
Along with the shouting and snorting came the sound of chasing and fighting. The air was compressed by a powerful force and then erupted with a low roar, the violent explosion of lightning explosions, the sharp sound of sword qi breaking through the air, the crackling sound of flames burning...... I can hear that there are a lot of tricks on both sides, and their skills are also extraordinary.
Wu Xie jumped up, clicked on the cliff with his toes a few times, and climbed to the top of the cliff. Looking down condescendingly, I saw that about two or three miles away, two figures were coming along with the long wind and sand.
The two men fought fiercely, and the sand and dust billowed everywhere they passed was like a small tornado. Wu Xie studied it carefully, and finally determined that they should not be refining cultivators, so he put his mind at ease.
As long as it's not a cultivator, it's not a big problem.
The two men had apparently noticed the cliff on this side, and rushed towards it as they fought—probably tired and looking for a place to rest.
Even if the monk's stamina is far better than that of ordinary people, he will still be too tired to bear if he fights for several days in a row.
Unless these two people want to die together, they must rest.
Seeing this scene, Wu Xie nodded secretly, and his heart was a little lighter.
Since these two people still know how to fight and rest, they should not belong to the madmen who can only communicate with their fists.
He doesn't want to fight people in this damn desert!
After a while, the two people in the chase came to the bottom of the cliff, and they saw Xiao Buyi who was waiting for him with a magic staff and a talisman in the hand.
The two immediately stopped, separated left and right, and distanced themselves far away.
The man on the left is a short-haired man in a gray robe, with a dark face, a burly figure, and a string of prayer beads hanging from his chest, who should be a Buddhist disciple.
Buddhism is widespread, and even in Yunzhou, west of the Great Desert, there are branches, so it is not surprising to see a monk in the desert - in fact, most of the monks who will travel long distances across the desert are monks, because they will often go to their fellow practitioners to discuss the scriptures, even if they travel far across the ocean or across the desert.
This monk is carrying a cooked copper Zen staff, and the top of the Zen staff is covered with several colorful rings. And judging from its coarseness, it probably doubles as a weapon. This means that he is a master of both magic and martial arts, and is more difficult to deal with than ordinary monks who specialize in spells or martial arts.
The man on the right was a woman in a white robe, wrapped tightly not only in her body, but also in her face. Except that it can be seen as a woman in terms of figure, there are no other physiognomy features. Wu Xie had never seen such a monk before, and he thought that the "Canaan Divine Cult" should be a relatively secretive organization.
The woman was holding two sharp scimitars in both hands, and there was a faint blue light flowing on the body of the knives, and at a glance, she knew that the Dao was not ordinary. Her white robe was painted with many symbols of unknown significance, and there was even more magic contained in it, which was obviously famous.
These two people originally chased and fought all the way, but after seeing Xiao Buyi, they separated from each other, which shows that they are not only very jealous of each other, but also very wary of other people, which is likely to be a ghost in their hearts.
The next negotiation went relatively smoothly, although Xiao Buyi's strength was slightly lower than the two, but when Wu Xie opened his fire eye on the top of the cliff and released a ring of fire that was enough to completely cover the entire cliff and a large area around it, the two wisely gave up their attempt to use violent negotiations and tried to win them over.
According to the monk named "Momoda", he is the core disciple of the Shingon sect under the Mystic Dharma Sect of Buddhism, and as long as he helps him solve the pursuers from the cult, he can win the friendship of the entire Mystic Dharma Sect - the Myofa Sect, which is good at opening the altar and preaching the Dharma, is the second most powerful force in Buddhism, second only to the first-ranked ascetic sect of the Vinaya Sect.
According to the female killer "Hehe", she is the protector of the Canaan Divine Sect, the largest sect in the eastern part of the Western Country, that is, Yunzhou. She also promised that as long as Wu Xie and Xiao Buyi helped her kill Momoda, she would definitely be treated as a guest and provided all kinds of conveniences when she went to the territory of the Canaan Divine Sect in the future.
"The conditions you have provided are all good, but they are not really what I need urgently." Xiao Buyi looked at Wu Xie and saw that he didn't mean to interject, so he said, "We won't fight hard with a profound monk in this great desert for something we don't urgently need." ”
"What do those two donors want?"
"Our Canaanite Divine Sect is huge, don't hesitate to mention any requirements!"
"Legend has it that there is an ancient city in this desert, and we want to find its ruins."
"I'll take you!" Momuda and Hehe shouted in unison.
It turned out that when the two were chasing and fighting in the desert, they actually passed by the ruins of the ancient city......
So the follow-up development of this matter is that the two sworn enemies who were originally inseparable from life and death actually wanted to be their guides together.
If Momoda wanted to leave, Hehe would go after him, so there was no one to lead the way for Wu Jie; And neither Momoda nor Hehe will let the other party monopolize the credit.
As a result, there was naturally only one choice left - they acted as guides together, led Wu Xie and Xiao Buyi to the ruins, and then had a good time themselves.
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with that." On the way, Xiao Buyi saw that the two of them were a little depressed, and persuaded with a smile, "At least you can take a good rest and recuperate enough to fight in the future." ”
His words were very reasonable, but seeing that Momoda was not smiling, and listening to the sneer that came out of Hehe's nose, he knew that the two of them did not listen to his persuasion at all, or even had the opposite effect.
"Alas! Why are they so eager to kill you? Xiao Buyi shook his head and sighed depressedly, "I look at their faces, they are entangled and killed, and if they have to fight like this, most of them will end up together!" ”
"Why don't you look at your hair?" Wu Xie said lightly, "Your hair seems to be a few whiter again." ”
Xiao Buyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately closed his mouth.
The journey in the desert was boring, and they had to orient themselves against the stars in the sky, and they traveled day and night along the way, and finally after five days, they saw the ruins in the vast sea of sand.
The ancient city that was once prosperous has been turned into countless ruins, and the inheritance of the cloth god is in this ruin......
