Chapter 614: The Two Sides Meet
931
In the blink of an eye, the fat Taoist arrived outside the door of his small Taoist temple.
But now it is not as good as in the past, usually he can happily take three shakes in one step, walk in with a small song and a bun, and after entering the door, he can feed some fish in the pond by the way, and chat with the fish.
But today he craned his neck and stood outside the door secretly observing. After observing the old man for a while, he then straightened his clothes, stroked and stroked the folds, and relieved the nervousness in his heart, before gritting his teeth, bowed three times to the position of the main hall behind the door, and bowed his hand again and again, muttering a few words in his mouth, the ancestor forgave the hundred taboos, and pushed open the door and walked inside with the flag of "iron mouth straight break".
Entering the gate, the fat Taoist stretched his neck again to look, looking in the direction of the offering table with expectation and anxiety.
It's just that nothing happened in the story, and the statue of the ancestor - Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun stayed there in good shape, not coming back to life, and the movements did not change much.
Looking at it again, there were a lot of things on the table, the three incense sticks that I had inserted when I went out at noon were still burning at a normal rate, and there was a person in the corner of the main hall who looked as cramped as himself. The fat Taoist looked over, and the other party happened to look at it, and the eyes of the two collided in mid-air in the main hall, and they had a tacit understanding, and they invariably asked:
"You saw that too?"
As soon as the two of them asked, they had a bottom in their hearts, and the fat Taoist leaned the white cloth flag against the wall, and the thin and tall senior brother walked quickly through the main hall and out of the door, and came to his side. The two looked into each other's eyes, and they both saw those surprises and surprises that could not be hidden.
"I just came back from a trip to Xiaoxiang."
"Can't you eat spicy food? No matter where you go, you have to drink with chili peppers there, and you can't be spicy to death. The fat Taoist hugged his arms and said a few jokes, and the atmosphere suddenly eased a lot.
"There are others. My friend invited me over, and it dragged on for a long time, but I was really embarrassed to delay it any longer. The tall Taoist said, "I came back five minutes earlier than Ling, bought some flavored snacks, and brought back some local specialty hot pot base, ready to break a piece and call you to eat copper pot together in the evening." As soon as I came back, I took the special products I brought back on the road to offer to my grandfather, and I just put two things in it, and suddenly I saw ......"
He looked at the fat man.
The latter pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, "Gray, a lot of gray mist, and an illusory figure, right?" ”
"Yes. I thought, this is not the same as what our master said......"
The fat Taoist smiled, a little lonely and sad: "Master, he also said after looking at the previous dossier, our Tianzun's Taoist temple has probably not had a single manifestation from beginning to end, but if there is a little, it will not be mixed up with only the two of us." On weekdays, there is no offering, and there is no incense respect, and it is even more difficult to get a fortune-telling permit on the street, and the brothers who grew up together can't stand the loneliness, can't get out, and find another place to make a living. ”
"For so many years, how many generations have not seen the so-called 'gray fog' in that dossier. However, I didn't expect that we would be able to see ...... again in our lifetime That figure, you say, should be Master Zu, right? ”
"It should be."
"I think it should be, too."
The lonely and helpless look on the fat Daoren's face changed, showed an expectant smile, and pushed his round little sunglasses: "Xiaoyao, you said - since Master Zu can still be in the world, does it mean that we still have the opportunity to worship Him, and we still have the opportunity to meet the Great Dao?" ”
"My heart is almost dead, and we can't go any further, but continue to guard this little courtyard for twenty years, until the day when heaven and earth are reopened, as prophesied. But Grandpa He has actually appeared now...... I want to go to Hedao. I know, the 'Heavenly Machine' told us, didn't it? The heir chosen by Tianzun is in the outside world, and there must be a chance to join forces in the outside world......"
"Don't think about it so much just yet."
The attitude of the tall and thin Taoist is not so optimistic:
"It is less than twenty years since the day the sky fell apart, and after today, it is difficult to say whether the ancestor will show up again, and these ten years are not enough to have in-depth contact with them. Moreover, the conjunctions of the 'Heavenly Machine' are already considered to have a high success rate, but there is still one that can only appear in several generations, and He has the ability to travel outside the world, but we do not have it. I think we'd better stay here in peace. ”
In just a few words, he broke the senior brother who was immersed in the beautiful expectation of Hedao.
"You have a point. This kind of thing is still in a hurry, no matter how much I mutter on weekdays, Master Zu may appear. ”
The tall and thin man glanced at the offering table:
"Do you think the dragon beard cake, dates, sugar lotus, dried fruit persimmon and osmanthus sugar on it can still be taken down?"
“…… Why don't you say goodbye? We're not bad at this, it's not good if Master Zu is unhappy. ”
The fat Taoist regretfully glanced at the direction where the seal was located, and said with a smile: "But with this one, I don't have the heart to set up a stall today, let's go, what about the hot pot base?" I'll take out the copper pot and brush it, and then go buy two catties of beef and mutton, and let's have dinner directly! ”
……
Crane pressed his temples, and he glanced at the miserable situation in the outside world, and then at the duo who were eating steaming red oil hot pot in that very special prayer picture, and felt extremely separated.
……
The other side of the Western Continent.
A man stood on the edge of a cliff with a corpse in front of him, and a large amount of blood. His figure was reflected in the waterhole next to him, but if he looked closely, the reflection in the waterhole was completely different from him.
"Do you think I've gone too far?"
His reflection said indifferently: "I'm just thinking about when you plan to fulfill the promise between us, you should have already found all the people who destroyed your family, you can serve it in one pot, but why did one suddenly appear in ten days and half a month?" ”
"You misunderstood, the juniors definitely don't have such thoughts."
The young man standing on the edge of the cliff spoke, his hair was much shorter than the average person, he was dressed modestly, and he had a string of rosaries coiled in his hand. He glanced at his reflection in fear, and no matter how much he hated fear in his heart, his face would not show half of it:
"The murderers are so scattered that it took me a lot of effort to find their traces, and I have no chance to meditate, and I have absolutely no intention of delaying the time – rest assured that when I defeat another candidate at the Festival next spring and become a Buddha, I will definitely be able to earn you the opportunity to receive the empowerment. It's just that you are also invited to contribute a lot at the festival. ”
He said in a flattering tone.
His reflection did not answer: "The person in front of you who doesn't seem to be your enemy, he is just an ordinary human who passed by when your house was wiped out but didn't dare to squeak, and now that he is dead, his family's land and property are all yours." ”
The young man crossed his hand with a rosary paused slightly, and then asked in a sad tone:
"Isn't it an accomplice to witness a murder but not dare to speak out? What's more, I only killed him alone, and I didn't touch his family. ”
"Then you don't take his title deeds, land deeds and family property?"
"He doesn't have anyone in his family who can take care of it, so he has to wait until his children are older."
Out of the corner of his eye, he traced his reflection to see what the man in the water had to say and what kind of expression he had. During this time, he constantly tested the bottom line of this "senior", and found that the other party was also a weirdo who didn't care about good and evil, had no morals and conscience, and didn't care about anything other than himself.
Therefore, he can be sure that the other party's dissatisfaction is only due to his own procrastination, and not because he has done something wrong.
- Sure enough, the other party did not react, and waved his hand to let him quickly deal with the departure.
"You're just a weak spirit hiding in an object, as long as you ask someone to seal you and throw it away, you'll be very likely to find me again......"
He disposed of the corpse casually, and with a word, the corpse and the bloodstains quickly began to decay and decay, and in the blink of an eye, the flesh and blood that were still warm turned into clean white bones, and even the blood that seeped into the ground became dark, and the soul also dissipated, without giving any chance for divination and remedy afterwards. These powers are far stronger than others, and he is considered to be the most gifted young man, but this is all given by this mysterious senior, and it is also the foundation for him to be able to cultivate on the surface and release the malice and murderous intent in his heart behind his back.
He threw his bones from the cliff in rags, and suddenly he heard a sentence:
"Do you feel it?"
He was stunned: "What do you feel?" ”
"Nothing." His reflection said, "You're completely unqualified." ”
Somehow scolded him, he was a little unhappy, and almost wanted to break off the wrench and throw it off the cliff. But he still held back, because everything he got inside the door was given by this wrench, and even if he wanted to cross the river and tear down the bridge, he would greet him with a smile.

Although only the small force of the fourth pillar that symbolizes the "end" collided, the gust of wind that blew the whole world still caused almost irreversible damage to the seal of the Eastern Continent.
The seal still stands in the depths of the Eastern Continent, but compared to the past, only a thin veil remains, and those on the outside can see the shadowy buildings inside, and those on the inside can gradually perceive the outside world.
The two worlds, which had been cut off almost from the beginning of the barrier, began to perceive and merge with each other once again. The research and divination of the legendary "Western Continent" suddenly took a point, and some unsolvable occult problems suddenly came to fruition, the blank symbols were filled, and the power of essentia was the first to pass through the seal. Even if they don't have time to do anything, they can still shock the outside world.
Although there was no trace of a seal in the Spirit Realm, the Seven Lights of the Spirit Realm also felt that countless information was pouring in frantically.
This information joined the spirit world, just like two adjacent but homologous lakes have finally been opened into a small opening, and the interactive information is constantly updated to each other's "terminals", so that the high-level on both sides have obtained a lot of useful knowledge in an extreme time.
"(Greetings from the Western Continent), Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun, you really deserve to die, why did you put the seal in the Eastern Continent!"
The old "Heavenly Machine" paced back and forth indoors, his face full of anger.
The seals were so weak that He still couldn't get out. He wanted to, but he didn't want to be exposed to God's gaze—no wonder God was always watching happily, because the main body of the seal was in the Eastern Continent, and God was now the equivalent of a gatekeeper outside the door, and whoever wanted to go out had to pass through His presence! - Don't even think about it, the Eastern Continent is his territory and his "kingdom of heaven" at this moment!
Who is idle and has nothing to do and will go straight to heaven? Is this something you can just walk into?
Even if you do get in, you won't be able to get out properly!
Even after rounding around more than a dozen times in his study, the demon of knowledge still didn't come up with a way to bypass God and go out with essentia, I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, or if God did something, the biggest hole in the seal was in the Eastern Continent, and other places couldn't go out. At the same time, He realized that the rest of his people were also watching, and that no one wanted or had the ability to come first.
"Our side...... It is estimated that it is impossible to unite and rush the card together. Tsk, now we can only hope for Klein, maybe he can change the location of the seal......"
But Klein's condition and ability ...... The Demon of Knowledge fell silent, and after a moment, snorted again.
on the southern continent.
The size of Bansey Island certainly cannot be compared with the Byran Empire, which dominated most of the southern continent, and it is a small island in the sea, the size of a small city at best compared to the mainland.
However, if a small or medium-sized city-sized clod of earth is smashed directly on Byron's territory, it will be terrible!
Not only did the entire Bailang Empire collapse in an instant, but even the plates of the Southern Continent had a lot of impact, and this was no better than the Northern Continent, no one would repair the deep and terrifying rifts on the ground and the volcanoes that were catalyzed, and the sky above the Bailang Empire was suddenly covered with smoke and dust.
The incarnation of a tributary of the River of Eternal Darkness was the focus of this attack, it was obviously hit hard, but unlike the forced silence and loss of consciousness of resistance in the city of Calamity, the incarnation of the tributary showed the anger and violence that it should not have, let out a scream, and put on the faintly visible figure of the goddess suddenly became taller, directly into the clouds, and the dark skirt became the stars that dotted the sky.
His face dissolved into the night sky, but Edward distinctly felt himself being watched from all directions.
Just like the song of the old days, the stars in the sky are like eyes.
"Are you trying to kill me? Friend. ”
Edward glanced at the almost open seal of the Eastern Continent, feeling the breath of essentia that he had broken and reconnected. The essentia of the Western Continent was stumped by God, and he was a little more confident in facing the incarnation of the tributaries of the River of Eternal Darkness.
"Are you coming?"

——————
I seemed to be dead again, sinking into darkness.
But when I opened my eyes again, I found myself holding a paintbrush in my hand, and in front of me was a blank canvas, and I seemed to be painting, but before the first stroke I could draw, I began to doze off, and now I woke up again.
I was a little dazed, I couldn't tell whether the previous death and words were my dreams when I was napping or something that had actually happened, but the despair and pain of stabbing myself in the neck with my own hand were still vivid, and my throat still seemed to ache. As I came back to my senses, I found myself in a square, full of tall people walking back and forth, and it was very cold, a bit like the city of Fursac.
When did I get to Fersac?
I was a little confused and felt like I hadn't woken up yet.
At this moment, a young man with black hair and green eyes walked in the distance, and when he saw that I was looking at him, he also raised his arm and greeted me with a smile:
"Mr. Anderson, you're not going back at such a late hour?"
My eyes widened.
Yes, my name is Anderson Hood, why is there an Anderson here too?
I stood up and tried to talk to him, only to find that all I could do was make a ho-ho sound in my throat – this Anderson is a mute?
Before I could come up with a reason, I suddenly saw the eyes of the green-eyed young man on the other side suddenly changed, and he immediately moved away from me, and I didn't say it was good, my reaction was a little big, and I was discovered.
Sure enough, he looked at me and asked solemnly and vigilantly:
"Who are you?"
I'm —
I wrote on my sketchpad, "I'm Anderson Hood. ”
