Chapter 176: Tai Sui

The man was wearing a cyan robe, black boots, and his beard was almost to the abdomen, who was not Dan Lingzi?

Yes, a new Dan Lingzi came to the dead Dan Lingzi.

There was almost no difference between the two, except that one was dead and the other was alive, and even the pale face was the same.

It can be said that a mold is carved out of the same material and technique without difference.

Suddenly, Dan Lingzi looked around with a wary expression, and Ji Que and Ning Hongyu couldn't help but lower their posture.

Did he sense something from the dead Dan Lingzi and think that there was someone nearby?

However, after that, the living Dan Lingzi did not continue to check.

He began to dig graves, and the living Dan Lingzi began to dig the graves of the dead Dan Lingzi.

It was a very absurd and horrific scene, but it just happened.

The dead Dan Lingzi was quickly buried in the ground, and a stone tablet was erected, on which the words "The Tomb of Dan Lingzi Chen Yu" were engraved.

As a result, Dan Lingzi's grave has one more.

Looking at the words on the new tombstone, Ji Que understood one thing.

No wonder the words on these tombstones are almost the same, it turned out that Dan Lingzi carved them for himself.

But is the Dan Lingzi in front of him still Dan Lingzi?

Where did he come from?

Things are getting more and more wicked.

The newcomer Dan Lingzi stood in front of the tomb for a while, and then walked towards the single-plank bridge with the extinguished oil lamp in his arms.

Is he going to go to the Void Meditation?

Ning Hongyu glanced at Ji Que and gestured, indicating that he was going to talk to this Dan Lingzi, while he continued to investigate the situation around here.

Yes, they not only have to continue to follow this Dan Lingzi, but also know where this Dan Lingzi came from.

After that, she gave Ji Que a small bamboo bag.

There was a small bee in the bamboo sac, and Ji Que didn't have to think about it to know that it was used to find her.

The little bees inside should be able to smell the smell of Ning Hongyu.

After that, the two soldiers split into two paths, one followed Dan Lingzi, while the other walked deeper into the barren grass.

The direction that Ji Que took was the direction that this new Dan Lingzi came from.

The further you go, the more lush the grass becomes, and there are still graves scattered nearby.

There are a lot of Dan Lingzi buried here.

Ji Que didn't know how far he had gone, except for the barren grass and the grave, there was no "coordinates" to refer to.

But he could feel that there were fewer graves around him than before.

The air was filled with the earthy smell of dirt, and it was visible to the naked eye that the nearby dirt had become a lot more damp, leaving clear footprints when stepped on it.

At the same time, the grass became more abundant, and some of the graves were hidden.

So Ji Que stood on the top of a tomb and looked around.

The grass here is so deep that it is difficult to see the whole of the neighborhood, so he can only stand on the top of the graves and carefully observe the strange surroundings.

Eventually, he found something.

Standing on this tomb, it can be seen to the naked eye that there is a place where the grass is much lighter, as if it has been pressed by something.

Ji Que walked over, and then saw a ding.

The surface is carved with intricately textured stone tripods that look like wrinkles on an old man's face and some kind of strange rune.

Yes, this is very similar to the stone tripod in the underground ken cave in the long void view.

Ji Que didn't remember the details of the previous stone tripod, he tended to think that they were exactly the same.

It is very likely that Dan Lingzi came out of here.

He and Ning Hongyu had guessed before that those big-bellied elk used to feed Chen Li were likely to grow from that ancient stone ding, and this Dan Lingzi could also have grown from this ding.

From the first time he saw this kind of ding, Ji Que felt evil, as if he had seen things that were hidden in the ancient years and should not be touched by human beings.

If the stone tripod under the ground before had made him feel uncomfortable, then the feeling of this tripod was even worse.

Because it's about people.

The graves around these walks are all dead Dan Lingzi.

Just thinking about the picture of countless Dan Lingzi emerging from this tripod, it makes people's scalp tingle.

After finding this ding, Ji Que quickly chased in the direction of Ning Hongyu.

The detached weeds, the tombstones of different styles, and the almost identical corpses buried in them always make people feel strange.

Ji Que relied on the little bee and found Ning Hongyu.

She was nesting in a tree, and Dan Lingzi in front of her was busy in the forest.

After going up the tree, Ning Hongyu couldn't help but say with the same lip: "He is a little vigilant. ”

Ji Que gestured with his mouth: "I saw a tripod." ”

After some exchange, Ning Hongyu understood what Ji Que meant.

Two ancient stone tripods that look very similar, maybe even identical, can grow elk and Dan Lingzi with big bellies.

Dan Lingzi relied on these elk to feed or sacrifice Chen carp every day, and repeated this every day without end.

They feel right these days, everything here seems to be repeating itself.

"What is the Dan Lingzi that came out of Shiding, what is Chen Li?" Ji Que said confusedly.

Ning Hongyu said: "Then we have to think about it, why does Dan Lingzi have to do the same thing every day?" ”

Ji Que pondered: "Making food for the master is actually more like some kind of sacrifice, what the dead Dan Lingzi did, the new Dan Lingzi will always continue to do it, repeating everything before......"

"The things that came out of these two tripods are trying to trap Chen Li, or to maintain this situation?"

They could clearly feel that if Chen Carp did not eat the deer at that hour of the day, it would become irritable and terrifying.

This feeling reminded Ji Que of the patients in the mental hospital, who sometimes needed to be coaxed by doctors to take medicine in order to stay normal.

It's just that it can be seen that Dan Lingzi is very afraid of Chen Li, as if once Chen Li gets out of control, extremely terrible things will happen.

At this time, Dan Lingzi was farther away from them, but Ji Que and Ning Hongyu knew that no matter how long he stayed here, he would always rush back to Changxuguan before dark.

Ning Hongyu said with his lips: "Those two mouthfuls of Ding reminded me of a legend. ”

"Legends?"

Because of the ginseng fruit tree, Ning Hongyu checked a lot of relevant files some time ago, which contained many deeds of Taoist immortals.

What Ning Hongyu said was a story of an old gentleman creating a man.

In the legends of the human world, people tend to believe that all living things in the world are made of mud and water by the gods, such as the most famous Nuwa who created man.

But the people made of mud and water by the ancient goddess Nuwa are not perfect, their lifespan is limited, and they are easily injured and die, but they are also gradually gaining momentum, making the world vibrant, even the gods dare not underestimate it.

Because of the potential of human beings, the Taoist immortals have not stopped studying human beings, or rather, they have been committed to fabricating more perfect human beings for a long time, among which Taishang Laojun is one of the representatives.

As a very ancient immortal, Lao Jun is considered to be an existence very close to the ancient Taoist god Nuwa.

It is said that for a period of time, when the earth was still a desolate land, Lao Jun was dissatisfied with the human beings created by the ancient goddess Nuwa, believing that they were too fragile to determine the direction of the human world.

So he's been trying to create a more perfect human being.

In that mythical story, Lao Jun made various attempts.

Lao Jun is good at alchemy, so he refines all kinds of pills for people to swallow, so some human beings become long-lived, some people become infinitely powerful, and some people become as tall as a pavilion, but some people have undergone abnormal changes, for the disaster of the world, turned into evil.

It can be said that Lao Jun's alchemy did not achieve his vision, he thought that those people were always created by Nuwa, even if they swallowed the elixir, they still could not change their essence, so Lao Jun began to try to create people by himself.

And "born with Ding" is one of Lao Jun's attempts.

It is said that Lao Jun searched all over the world and found the creation of the Yang Sui God in the wilderness, a very strange kind of soil.

The so-called "Yang Sui" has the meaning of "taking fire from the sun", and the Yang Sui God is a more ancient existence than the ancient goddess Nuwa.

The creation of that kind of yang sui god, that is, that kind of strange soil, was called "Tai Sui" by Lao Jun.

Tai Sui is a kind of soil, a kind of soil with a long lifespan.

Lao Jun took Tai Sui as the base, supplemented by lifelong means, and created hundreds of Ding furnaces.

These tripod furnaces are called "Tai Sui Ding".

It is said that these Ding furnaces have almost exhausted Lao Jun's hard work.

There are hundreds of Tai Sui Ding, all of which are made of Tai Sui soil, and all of them are used to create people, but the effect is not consistent.

Some people made by Tai Sui Ding have three heads and six arms, and the three heads quarrel endlessly, and finally go crazy and die; Some people created by Tai Sui Ding have a long lifespan, but they are afraid of thunder and are easy to scatter; And some people created by Tai Sui Ding are smart and wise and have a long lifespan, and are good at cultivation, which is very in line with Lao Jun's requirements for people, but they are easy to fall into hysteria and make terrifying moves of cannibalism and devouring gods......

It can be said that the people created by Tai Sui Ding are strange, some are born much stronger than humans, and they will become stronger and stronger, but they also have big and small drawbacks.

In short, Tai Sui Ding can be said to be Lao Jun's many attempts to create people, but they are undoubtedly not successful.

Later, Lao Jun, who had exhausted his efforts, knew that it was not easy to create a man, so he gradually shelved his original plan.

In that dossier, the process and results of Lao Jun's creation of people were described, but the whereabouts of Tai Sui Ding were not described.

Ji Que couldn't help but say: "So you suspect that what we saw was Tai Sui Ding?" ”

When he thought about it carefully, those two tripods were indeed very similar to the Tai Sui tripods described by Ning Hongyu.

He always felt that those textures were not only like the wrinkles on the old man's face, but also some kind of ancient runes, presumably because Tai Sui was the soil with Shouyuan, and those runes were Lao Jun's handwriting?

"Those two tripods are the legendary things of Laojun, who will be the person who put the two tripods here?"

An immortal like Taishang Laojun can already be said to be a figure like the originator of immortals, and the people who can find and use his things are definitely not very human.

Ning Hongyu pondered: "That is naturally a master of Taoism, and I even think that he is a Taoist immortal." ”

Speaking of which, Tai Sui Ding is the creation of the originator of the immortals, and mortals want to use it a bit of a foolish dream, and only the Taoist immortals, the immortals who have mastered some of Lao Jun's magical powers.

"Immortals, the bureau set up by the immortals, specifically to deal with Li Li?"

Thinking of this, Ji Que only felt as if he was in a dark ocean, and there were some behemoths swimming around, but he couldn't really see it.

Because it can be seen that the existence of these two tripods is to constantly give birth to new Dan Lingzi and elk, and the meaning of the existence of both seems to be like appeasing Chen Li, making him stay in the long void day after day.

Ji Que couldn't help but recall the first time he came here with Lin Xiangzhi, the solemn expression of Dan Lingzi, and the warning to them.

Don't come back here and forget about it all.

He felt extremely strange at the time, but now that he thought about it, the reason why Dan Lingzi was so nervous and dignified must have been because he was worried that their appearance would change the balance here and make Chen Li lose control.

It's like it's better for a mentally ill person not to be stimulated by the outside world.

And now what makes his back chill is that if Chen Li is an evil spirit, then he is an evil that Taoist immortals can't help it?

The Taoist immortals could only use two Tai Sui Ding to set up a bureau, and constantly let Dan Lingzi and the elk sacrifice Chen Li, so that he could be trapped in this bureau.

Yes, if the Taoist immortals could directly kill Chen Li, they would definitely not use this kind of troublesome, even cautious means.

And is Chen Carp really evil?

Starting from devouring the elk, he would indeed become very terrifying, and sentences such as "Lao Jun", "Immortal", and "Xiangxiang" would pop out of his mouth from time to time, as if he was really communicating with those immortals.

Could Chen Li also be an immortal, just fighting with another immortal.

The immortal may have outmaneuvered him, but he could not kill him, so he had to trap him in this way.

However, even if Chen Li is a fairy, just the temperament that is revealed is definitely not a good stubble.

Ji Que informed Ning Hongyu of his thoughts, and Ning Hongyu also fell silent.

At this time, Ning Hongyu suddenly beckoned him to come down.

They came to the vicinity of the one-plank bridge.

There are weeds and wives, and the shrubs are dense, and there is nothing abnormal in Ji Que's eyes.

Ning Hongyu pointed to a small withered tree and said, "When I passed by here last night, I made two marks on this dead tree. ”

Ji Que looked over and found that there was nothing there.

"What do you mean?"

Ning Hongyu raised his head, looked at this wild forest, and the direction of Chang Xuguan not far away, and said, "This Chang Xuguan and this forest are alive. ”

"Huh?"

"People can heal when they are injured, and so can this forest, I have looked carefully, and the traces we may have left last night are gone." Ning Hongyu said very seriously.

Hearing this, the feeling of fear suddenly surrounded Ji Que like water.

He suddenly remembered a detail, that is, when they returned to the mezzanine from the hole yesterday, he didn't seem to see any traces of dragging on the mezzanine planks.

The mezzanine was covered with dust, and once he and Ning Hongyu climbed in, they would always leave traces.

And when I went back yesterday, it didn't seem to be, did this just prove Ning Hongyu's statement.

He couldn't help but think of the feeling he had had beforeβ€”they were the only change here.

And the people who used the two tripods obviously didn't want any changes here.

Because here is not only the Chen carp has a problem, but the entire Changxuguan, and even this forest has a problem.

Whether it's Chen Li, or what appeared in the forest last night, once it gets out of here, I'm afraid it will be a terrible thing.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu are both very bold people, but they can't help but be a little scared at this time.

This feeling is as absurd and scary as if you were happily going for a swim in the pool, but suddenly encountered a shark.

You must know that Ji Que's original purpose for coming here was just to inquire about the news of the ginseng fruit tree.

Even if they came this time, they just wanted to see the strangeness of this temple and determine whether what Chen Li said was worthy of reference.

But......

Ji Que couldn't help but think of Chen Honest's words, I'm afraid the water in here is very deep.

It's so deep that it can drown people.

So he and Ning Hongyu quickly made a decision, that is, "Run".

This is indeed not an existence that they can easily get their hands on now.

It was cloudy, the sky was dark, and the two climbed a tree before leaving.

Standing on the tree, they couldn't see the mottled red wall, but they could see Dan Lingzi's figure walking alone.

The direction he went was exactly the direction of Changxuguan.

Ji Que only felt a heaviness.

He thought of fate.

Dan Lingzi went there every day, appeased Chen Li, and then left in the night, died in the barren grass, and then was replaced by a new Dan Lingzi, repeating all this, like a mayfly dying in the twilight of life.

This is the fate of Dan Lingzi.

And what about their fate?

Is it to stay away from it all, like you've never been here, or is there something you can do?

In the past few days, they found that the time of Dan Lingzi every time he returned to the Taoist Temple was not the same, especially yesterday, Chen Li was so irritable that he almost went crazy before he came back.

Does this mean that the balance here is not eternal?

And once this game is broken, the world will face a Chen carp who doesn't know what kind of changes will be born, and those terrible things in the forest last night.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu left there.

The voyeurism in the past few days has made them see a corner of the secret, and they only feel absurd and terrifying like a dream.

"I'm still too weak."

Ji Que couldn't help but think.

This time, there is no self-humility, but sincerity.

If he is strong enough, strong enough to pinch Chen Li and everything else to death, there will be no trouble in this regard.

"Ji Que, I want you to help me practice."

"Shangfeng, I want you to help me practice."

Suddenly, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu said in unison.
