The fate of the Dust Bone Man is to hunt ghosts and gods?
Yes.
Obviously, in the era of the closure of the town, the dust bones are actually useless, as long as the ghosts and gods do not step into the earthly world, then the dust bones will also spend an ordinary life as ordinary people.
But once the ghosts and gods are born, the Dust Bone Man will immediately transform into the most powerful and dangerous apex predator.
If he is not wiped out in the process of his rise, then when the Dust Bone Man devours enough divine bones, this heavenly ghost god will no longer be able to escape the fate of being reburied in the grave.
----But here's the problem.
If there is such an incompatible relationship between themselves and the ghosts and gods, why do they allow themselves to continue to live in this earthly world?
As long as the ghosts and gods have basic rationality, then the best option is to slap the Dust Bone Man to death before he grows up.
At first, Ji Shang thought that the curse of the Empty Mother was the key to his life, but now it seems that it is just a supplement.
What really saves me from facing the top-level ghosts and gods for the time being is for other reasons.
"Why didn't those top-level ghosts and gods attack me directly?"
Ji Shang asked bluntly.
"A lot of reasons. First of all, the hostility between the ghosts and gods of different forces is a reason, and no one wants to be the praying mantis catching the cicada and the yellow finch in the back. ”
"Another reason is that the nascent dust bones are unstable, and if you are killed now, most of the characteristics of the dust bones will dissipate directly---- which is a huge loss for the ghosts and gods who want to rule the earthly world."
"For this reason, for a period of time, most of the demons will do things to you outside the boundaries, but they will not hunt you on earth. Because outside the boundary, it can directly and non-destructively contain the dust bone. ”
This is a relatively credible reason---- but what about Xudu? They don't intend to let themselves grow.
"What about the drunkenness? They don't want bone? ”
"They are the most powerful of the ghosts, and even if they don't have a bone, they have a good chance of winning in battles with other ghosts and gods. For them, the biggest role of the dust bones is not to accommodate other divine bones to strengthen their own strength, but to continue the yin fire of the Xudu. ”
"Dust bones, as far as Xudu is concerned, are just firewood. The reason why there is no more powerful ghost god directly attacking you, you also know the reason, is the restriction of the secret hiding place. ”
Ji Shang suddenly woke up, and he remembered the message of the Great Calamity.
“....... The faint light of the goner lamp reflected in the house, illuminating the weight of the bones of the dusty bones, which was enough to ignite the yin fire for another hundred years......."
Everything makes sense.
It's no wonder that up to now, all the ghosts and gods that directly threaten their lives have come from Xudu.
It seems that the dispute between ghosts and gods is not as simple as I think.
After a pause, he continued:
"Let's go back to the previous topic---- after hunting ghosts and gods, how do you hold their divine bones?"
Ji Shang asked.
"The old one, the binding method, the god method, and the cave method....... In fact, it is the same as the Xianggu people, the difference is that the Xianggu people accommodate the divine bones temporarily, but the dust bone people accommodate the divine bones, which is permanent. ”
"Those divine bones will be completely yours, even if the ghosts and gods are buried in the grave, they will not die."
"Therefore, in order to distinguish it from the method of accommodating the Fragrant Bone People, the method of accommodating the divine bones of the Dust Bone People is called, and the bones."
“....... It's a bit of a play. Isn't it something that husband and wife do when they are buried together after death? ”
Ji Shang said a little speechlessly.
"Who's to say that you don't have the slightest connection to the ghosts and gods?"
Tan Qian smiled mysteriously and didn't say any more.
"What about you? What is the way you Qixia Temple steals the power of ghosts and gods? ”
"It's simple, pick up the bones. We, these people in Qixia Temple, originally survived by picking up some of the bones left by ghosts and gods and people like you. ”
Tan Qian said with emotion, but Ji Shang didn't believe it at all.
Is it really as pitiful as he said, a thousand years ago, Qixia Temple, can still destroy the Supo world that is in the limelight?
Stop it.
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are they talking about here?
As Tan Qian narrated, the mobile phone in Ji Shang's pocket also kept vibrating.
Taking advantage of the other party's breathing and resting, he took out his mobile phone and turned on the push of the catastrophe.
"With the help of Qixia Temple, the Dust Bone Man has finally completely lifted the last veil of this world, and the truth about ghosts and gods has been fully revealed to you for the first time."
"You have comprehended your destiny and the rules by which this world works."
"Yes, the Dust Bone Man is born to be the nemesis of ghosts and gods, and it is also the nightmare of ghosts and gods, which is the real reason why the bull ghosts and snake gods want to kill you."
"They should have been more radical, but unfortunately, even the ghosts, snakes, and gods have disputes."
"All the ghosts want to kill you, but all the ghosts don't want the other ghosts to kill you."
"It's a weird contradiction...... But it is this contradiction that gives you the opportunity to grow out of your infancy. ”
"Cherish this opportunity, perhaps, this is also the last chance of the vast earthly world......."
After reading the information, Ji Shang noticed that a new tab had been generated next to the original information tab.
Divine bones.
"Contains Divine Bones: None."
"Currently Contained Divine Bone Weight (Highest Value): None."
There is no superfluous information, and the whole is clear at a glance.
The first row is the kind, and the second is the rank.
Taking the highest value means that even if you can accommodate dozens of divine bones of the same weight, the maximum power you can exert is limited to the weight of a single divine bone.
Different bones do not stack with each other.
This is also common sense, a bunch of ants together can't bite a giant, if it can really be stacked, find a place to brush the yellow skin everywhere, or you will be able to brush all the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods in a few months.
However, even so, Ji Shang also believed that when the abilities represented by different divine bones were combined, the power he could exert was not equal to two, but at least greater than one.
Combinations are a wonderful thing, and the right combination is even more so.
After a moment of repair, the two set off again.
After finishing the information about the power of the ghosts and gods, Tan Qian seemed to be much more relaxed, he glanced at Ji Shang, who had just taken back his mobile phone, and asked:
"You've been looking at your phone, it's not a good habit, it's not a joke to fight ghosts and gods, it's best to quit your mobile phone addiction......."
Ji Shang frowned, he stared at Tan Qian's face, and after confirming that he was just chatting without words, he replied:
"I'm answering a friend's message."
"This morning, General Liu Meng in the Eight Waxes of the City God almost killed my neighbor."
Tan Qian nodded slightly and replied:
"I've received the message....... It was meant to go for you, but you were cautious and didn't give it a chance. ”
"These cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods are like this, they are moody and treat human life like a mustard......"
"You're spying on me?"
Ji Shang interrupted.
"Yes. There's nothing you can't admit, Qixia Temple has some surplus manpower, and it's normal to spy on you. ”
"But rest assured, we have no intention of seizing you or exploiting your weaknesses."
"Just like you and the mother locust, we are in a symbiotic relationship now, a grasshopper in a boat, even if you have to turn your face....... At least until most of the power of the demons and gods is wiped out. ”
"This process should take more than ten years....... In these ten years, we have certainly been allies. ”
Tan Qian's honesty surprised Ji Shang a little, but when he thought about it, it was not surprising.
He has already revealed the details of Qixia Temple to himself, so any person with a normal IQ can deduce the result of "turning against each other".
The only thing that is uncertain is the speed of progress.
More than ten years?
Ji Shang secretly discounted this time in his heart, and after a slight groan, it was reduced to five years.
This figure is relatively convincing.
Qixia Cave was already close in front of him, and Ji Shang's mind couldn't help but flash the words he said when he first met Tan Qian.
In this unremarkable cave, there is a secret to the power of ghosts and gods.
Now he already knows that the things in the cave must be related to the so-called "bone picking method", but what will it be?
The Buddha statue of the Three Buddhas? Altar? An operating room that manufactures so-called fragrant bones?
Or is it the same hall of transmission as written in fantasy novels?
Without waiting for him to think about it, Tan Qian went straight into the cave, and Ji Shang had no choice but to follow.
But unlike what he expected, the cave was not pitch black, nor did it have the dilapidated and decaying atmosphere of his stereotype, but .......
Quite modern?
The walls of the cave were brushed with cement and even putty, and the roof of the cave was equipped with simple but bright energy-saving lamps---- which were also switched on and off.
And as the tunnel gets deeper, the space inside gets bigger and bigger.
Until he reached the end, a spacious hall appeared in front of Ji Shang's eyes.
The hall is neatly arranged with a small number of electronic devices, surrounding the ....... in the middle A dried corpse.
A dried corpse with all charred skin and a pitch-black body.
Even though he had already experienced a lot of ghost and god things, when this strange scene appeared in front of Ji Shang's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little palpitations.
However, just when he was about to ask Tan Qian for clarification, an even more strange scene appeared.
The dried corpse, breathing!
