Chapter Seventy-Nine: Four Friends
Shi Qi and Yuanwu are in a hot game.
Sun Fanbai drank tea, watched the situation of the two of them on the chessboard, and was silent.
The time for another pillar of incense has passed, and I saw Bai Qiu slowly flying down from the air and landing outside the pavilion.
Bai Qiu scolded when he landed on the ground: "Grandma, you three demons are too fast!" ”
Shi Qi turned his head to look at Bai Qiu, then threw the chess piece he held in his left hand back into the chess box, stood up and said slowly: "Master Yuanwu, I lost in the game." ”
Yuanwu stood up and saluted: "Amitabha, the donor of the time will accept it." ”
Shi Qi shook his head: "Playing chess is also to hone the state of mind, the master's state of mind is as plain as water, but my heart is turbulent and unsettled." ”
Yuanwu: "The Taoist has hatred in his heart, and he needs to resolve this matter in order to go to the next level, if he has a bad heart, it will definitely affect his cultivation." ”
Shi Qixing saluted: "Thank you for your advice." ”
After that, Shi Qi took back the chessboard, took out the token of the cave house given by the Egret real person from the Qiankun bag, and said to the three of them: "Three, follow me to the Egret Cave Mansion to find out." ”
Shi Qi poured his true qi into the token, and suddenly felt something in his heart.
The crowd walked towards the corner of Egret Beach.
Shi Qi raised the token and threw it into the air.
I saw the black token floating in the air, and the token emitted a red light, and then the red light flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and a void door appeared.
Sun Fanbai sighed: "Is this the entrance to the cave?" Sure enough, it is hidden, and the surrounding area is completely unaware of the existence of prohibition, if there is no token as a key, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the location of the cave. ”
Most of these caves are in excellent location, or they are surrounded by mountains and rivers, or they are full of spiritual energy, and the fairy spirit is fluttering, and it is rare to see this kind of cave house located on the seaside in front of everyone.
There is generally a strong prohibition outside the cave, and outsiders are not allowed to enter at will, like Shi Qi and others, who also have the token of the Egret real person, and can only enter with the approval of the master, of course, if the cultivation is advanced enough, the ban can also be forcibly broken to enter. But this requires a sufficiently large repair gap.
Shi Qi withdrew the token in the air and took the lead in walking forward, and the three of them followed closely behind, stepping into the void door.
There was chaos in front of everyone, and then the picture flashed, and the scene in front of them appeared in the field of vision of the four people.
In front of them was a row of small farmhouses, outside which were planted with several vegetable gardens, and at the outermost was a simple wooden fence that separated them from the outside, and nothing else.
Bai Qiu: "This ...... Is it Dongfu? ”
Everyone sighed, thinking that the cave should be the water of the fairy mountain cave, and the aura was fluttering, but they didn't expect that the cave house was no different from the residence of ordinary people, which really made the four of them lose for a while.
Shi Qi sighed: "The master asked me to clean up, I thought it was a joke, but I didn't expect it to be really let me clean up." ”
At this time, Yuanwu suddenly spoke: "Dao Chief, it seems that there are people living here, you see, this vegetable garden is green, not withered, and there are no weeds, as if someone is taking care of it every day." ”
"Could it be that the master is here?" Listening to what Yuanwu said, Shi Qi also felt that this place did not look like no one had been here for a long time.
Sun Fanbai spoke: "Since it is the cave mansion of the Venerable Master Egret Zhenren, there will definitely be no danger, Brother Shi, I will know when we enter it." ”
Shi Qi nodded, took two steps forward and pushed open the simple gate made of wooden fences, and then stepped into the garden.
As soon as Shi Qi's left foot stepped into the garden, a soft shout came from his ears.
"Who trespassed on the cave!"
Shi Qi was alert for a while, only to see a flash of white light in front of him, and a young man appeared in front of him.
The man was emaciated, his eyes were like jet-black agate, his black hair had a silky sheen, and he was dressed in silver, although ordinary, he gave people a sense of nobility.
Shi Qi hurriedly stretched out his hand and held the token in front of him.
The man looked at the token faintly and muttered, "Is it her?" Boy, what are you to her? ”
Shi Qixin said: It seems that the man in front of him should know his master, seeing that he is not very old, but it is estimated that he is the same as his master, an "old" person who does not know how long he has lived.
Shi Qi said: "In Xia is a disciple of Bailu Zhenren, named Shi Qi, who came to this cave on the order of the master...... Cleaning ....."
Hearing this, the man was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Egret real person? Hahaha, she calls herself a real Egret person? It's kind of interesting...... I've been here for hundreds of years, and she hasn't even come to see it, but how many boys did she send today? Fun and fun! ”
Shi Qi frowned, he didn't understand the meaning of the man's words, why did he call himself a real Egret? Also, how many hundred years has this person been in the cave? This is not the master's cave? And looking at his appearance, he must know his master, but why his words are so puzzling.
The man laughed, turned his head to look at the vegetable garden, then looked at Shi Qi, and muttered: "Okay, the flowers have bloomed, and the fruit is about to be taken, so the four of you can come with me." ”
With that, the man turned and walked towards the farmhouse.
Shi Qi looked back at Sun Fanbai, Bai Qiu and Yuan Wu, and the three of them were confused, not knowing what was going on.
Shi Qi spread his hands, saying that he didn't know what the situation was, and then Shi Qi said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”
Everyone nodded, and followed Shi Qi to the farmhouse.
A few people entered the farmhouse, which was also very simple and neatly furnished, with only a wooden bed, a wooden table and a few chairs.
When the four of them entered the house, they saw the man sitting on a wooden chair with his back to several people.
At this time, the man spoke: "The four of you remind me of the four friends who once dominated the twelve states. ”
Shi Qi took a step forward, hugged his fists and asked, "Senior, what are the four friends." ”
The man lowered his head, as if thinking about something, pondered for a moment, and the man looked up and said: "Many years ago, there were four people who became friends of the opposite sex, some of them were heroic and uninhibited, some were old and steady, some were casual and lazy, and some had the best view of the overall situation. ”
"These four people have their own magical powers and have a deep friendship, and they have created a lot of deeds in the twelve states together, some are good and some are bad, as long as the four of them gather, there will be chaos, acquaintances call them the four friends, and the enemy calls them the four murderers."
Bai Qiu stepped forward: "Senior, if there are really these four people, then why is there no record in my Bai Xiaosheng's annals." ”
The man slowly turned his head: "What is Bai Xiaosheng?" ”
"Forehead......" Bai Qiu embarrassed: "Senior, Bai Xiaosheng is the largest information collection and transmission organization in the twelve states today. ”
The man shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, if there really is such a sect, then why didn't you come out to help when the demon descended to the tribulation?" ”
"Demon Fall?!!!
Four people were shocked!!
Sun Fanbai hurriedly asked, "Senior! The legend of the Demon Descent is true?!! ”
The man said lightly: "What, is this still fake?" Why, now the people of the twelve states have forgotten the experience of the Demon Descent? ”
Bai Qiu: "Ahem, senior, the Demon Tribulation has passed for 10,000 years, and the main peak of Beiyun Mountain has also been banned and sealed, so people treat the Demon Tribulation as a legend." ”
Now it was the man's turn to be shocked: "Ten thousand years!! Has it been so long......"
Shi Qi then asked: "Senior, the legend of those eighteen heroes joining forces to fight against the Demon Descent Tribulation is also true?!" ”
The man didn't answer, just lowered his head and shook his head slowly, not knowing what he was thinking, the man muttered, "Ten thousand years...... 10,000 years ......"
"Senpai!"
After a moment, Shi Qi's voice interrupted the man's thoughts, and the man came back to his senses.
The man patted his head and said, "Alas, I have only been awake for hundreds of years, and I haven't left the cave for hundreds of years, and I don't know what happened to the outside world...... Unexpectedly, it has been 10,000 years since the Demon Descent Tribulation, alas......"
Sun Fanbai asked tentatively: "Senior, ...... you Are you from the ancient times who lived through the Devil's Descent? ”
The man frowned: "The Demon Descent Tribulation is already called the Ancient Era......
The man muttered to himself for a moment, and then suddenly said, "That's it, my head doesn't allow me to think about so many things." ”
Then the man turned his head to look at Shi Qi: "That's right, the legend of the eighteen heroes is true, and among these eighteen, there are four friends!" And most of them are people related to the Four Friends! ”
Shi Qisi was shocked again, the news they heard today was simply dumbfounded, although there are still many places in the twelve states that are spreading the legend of the Demon Descent, but most of them should be the legend of inspiring future generations and after tea and dinner.
Many people regard this legend as a gimmick for the Xiuzhen Market, and even disciples of the Great Gate Sect such as Bai Qiu and Sun Fanbai are skeptical of this matter.
Today, from what this mysterious man said, the matter of the Demon Descent Tribulation and the Eighteen Warriors turned out to be true!!
This is like the first time an ordinary child sees an immortal cultivator, and the impact on his heart is very huge!
Bai Qiu then asked, "Senior, this ......"
"Alright, alright!"
The man waved his hand to interrupt Bai Qiu: "My head hurts a little and I don't want to answer the question!" ”
Seeing the man's appearance, several people were slightly lost, although there were still many questions in their hearts, but they still knew the current affairs and stopped talking.
Several people were silent for a moment, and the man suddenly spoke: "I almost forgot to let you in for something!" ”
"After the four of you entered the garden, did you notice the medicine field in front of the door?"
Shi Qi spoke: "Medicine Field? Isn't that a vegetable garden? ”
The man glanced at Shi Qi: "It seems that you don't know anything, don't you wonder why your master is white...... The Egret is really going to let you come to this cave. ”
Shi Qi shook his head: "I don't know, but I'm sure, I didn't let me clean up!" ”
The man smiled, then stood up, walked slowly to the window, and pushed it open.
The four of them followed, looking out the window, and there was chaos, nothing.
The four were puzzled.
I saw the man touch his head and whispered, "Uh...... I opened it wrong, the one opposite. ”
Others: "......"
