Chapter 11: The Man of God
Chen Jing didn't know how long he had been gone, he couldn't see the sun and moon, he didn't know the hour, and his perception of time was only a candle that burned and faded.
He only knew that he had to find a "block" door, which was very big, standing up to the sky, unique in the world, at least that's what Grandpa Chai said.
went to the door to find clues that might go back, but what it was, Chai seniors didn't tell him, and he couldn't imagine it himself.
The boy waited until his feet were exhausted, stopped for a moment on the misty road, and got up again to hurry.
Looking left and right on the road, you can vaguely distinguish the appearance of some other palaces, most of them are similar to those palaces seen in front, most of them are destroyed and collapsed, and a few of them look intact, and they can't see the true face from too far away, thinking that they are probably lucky, suppressing the curiosity in their hearts, and continuing to hurry.
Time flies, climbing all the way.
Finally stopped, looked ahead, the end of the line of sight was clouds and mist, still can't see the giant gate, according to the Chai seniors, the gate that is as high as the sky, should be far away should be able to see it, do you have to go further?
Chen Jing couldn't help but feel desperate in his heart, looking at the candle in his hand, not even half of the beginning, his physical strength had been completely exhausted, his legs were so sore that he could only pace with his mind, and his eyelids were tired and collapsed.
The boy was tired, stepped aside, and sat down slowly leaning against the stone railing.
Feeling that he was probably about to fall asleep, and wondering if the candle would hold him awake, he took out a bead from his bosom and held it in his hand in case the worst happened, so he took a long breath, closed his eyes, and spat out a few names from the corners of his mouth, all of whom were close acquaintances he knew.
Before falling asleep completely, I was a little envious of Cui Niu's good life, I don't know what Cui Niu is doing here?
Chen Jing was overworked, could no longer concentrate on thinking about things, and fell asleep completely.
A person walked slowly, saying that he was walking, but in fact, there was a cloud of Qingyun under his feet, floating here.
The man came to the sleeping boy, looked down, laughed silently, and said "Rise" softly, and the clouds gathered under the boy, holding the boy and the candle steadily.
The man walked along the avenue with his hands behind his back, and the boy who was held up by the clouds followed, and after walking a short distance, he was completely in the clouds
"Lao Mu, it's been the fourth day of the, and there hasn't been any movement, so you just take out those ghost things!"
Grandpa Dong said angrily.
"Lao Mu, you are quite calm, but you want to find a way, the two children can't lie down all the time, you have been waiting like this, what are you waiting for? Collecting corpses? ”
Uncle Meng began to curse.
I didn't hear the master speak this time, and Grandpa Dong and Uncle Meng yelled at the end.
"Lao Mu!!"
Chen Jing was awakened by the roar, subconsciously gasped for breath, and hurriedly looked around, this was not the place where he slept last time, and the candle was gone.
Opening his clenched fist, the light emitted by the pearl had dimmed a lot, and it flickered and dimmed, like a candle flame that was about to be extinguished at any time.
Looking at the topography, I made sure that I was not in the place where I had slept, but at the bottom of a stone staircase, and I didn't understand how I got here, and finally I had to blame this strange place.
I was worried that I would have to go back and find the way to the gate again, but when I looked down the steps to the top, a corner of the majestic gate appeared in my eyes.
Chen Jing was happy in his heart, no matter who it was, no matter what happened, he would help himself after all.
Now that the door was close at hand, all that was left was to climb the stone steps, and Chen Jing encouraged himself to climb to the top before the beads were completely dull.
At the top of the stone staircase, stood two men in full armor.
One left and one right, one sit and one stand.
One black and one white. One is jet black, the other is silvery.
Hei Jia looked at the little one at the bottom of the mountain, and sneered: "Even if the stone steps are not contained in the magic will, just let him climb slowly, let him use up the beads given by Lao Chai, he can climb halfway up the mountain, even if Lao Tzu has the ability." ”
Yinjia said indifferently: "You and I will help him sooner or later, why do you have to speak so fast in front of me." ”
Hei Jia said with a smile: "Hurry up and say it while you can still say it, we are both living dead now, and we may not be able to speak in the future, even if we can say it, whether anyone listens to it or not." I'm a big old man who is used to living a life of fine clothes and jade food, and I don't hold my mouth back, so it's okay for you to treat it as a deaf ear and as a fart. ”
Silver Armor seems to know this black armor very well, and has no intention of-for-tat, "You can make a move later." ”
After speaking, he closed his eyes and stopped looking at the situation down the mountain.
Heijia responded: "Yes, admit your feelings." But wait, I have to make him tired and suffer a little sin, and when the time comes, I can take action, and I should save half his life.
The fish that jumped up and caught it looked upset. Half-dead and powerless, the fish that resigned themselves to the pot made people look comfortable. ”
Hei Jia tilted his head to look at the person next to him and asked, "Is this Li'er?" ”
Silverarmor was indifferent and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Chen Jing looked at the broken beads in his hand, although he had already guessed that the pearl would eventually become a useless waste bead, he was still a little distressed in his heart, and carefully put the broken beads into his arms to see if he could take the broken beads back when he went back, just as a souvenir, after all, it was a life-saving thing.
When the bead was broken just now, he couldn't immediately take out a new pearl to replenish it, and a feeling of dizziness immediately hit, and he instinctively took out a new bead in his arms, and the feeling of death faded like a tide.
At this time, I remembered Grandpa Chai's words, "I can replace your candle flame in a critical moment." ”
It's just a few beads, but are they really enough?
Looking behind, there is no way back.
It is likely that the front looks at the mountain and runs a dead horse.
After a little thought, Chen Jing continued to climb up the stairs as if he was resigned, at least there was some hope ahead.
"I always feel that it's been a long time, and that's how life has been."
"I don't know what happened to Cui Niu, no one will grab food with her in the future, she must be very happy."
"Grandpa Chai is a good person, and he should be rewarded."
"When I go back, I have to make up for the gap I used to practice calligraphy and martial arts every day."
"When will I be able to go back?"
……
The black armor at the top of the stairs was originally just going to wait for the little one to become tired and become a dead dog, and it would be boring and lively.
What I was waiting for was non-stop nagging, chattering, at first I could bear it, and then it was a little bit endless.
This made Hei Jia not care about what he said, stood up, stretched out his arm and grabbed it, and scolded: "Get out of here!" ”
Chen Jing, who was about to step on the stone steps below, suddenly shook the object in front of him, and immediately recovered, but his foot strength could not keep up with his eyesight, and his footsteps were immediately disrupted, and he fell directly in front.
A rough voice came from above, "This greeting gift is okay, don't you say?" ”
Chen Jing was stunned when he looked up, he had already seen the strangeness of this place, but there was always something new beyond his cognition, such as what he saw in front of him.
Two people, two giants in armor.
It was only seven or eight steps away from the two giants, and the contrast in size was even more striking, with the two giants standing high and a small man standing low.
There was only the last stone staircase, and a few more steps would be considered to reach the top of the mountain, but Chen Jing's gaze was completely attracted by the two giants and he didn't notice this.
Chen Jing looked at these two giants, thinking that with such height, if he entered Zhao'an City, he might have to bow his head and bend down when he entered the city gate.
The black giant was covered in armor all over his body, from the helmet, breastplate, leg armor to the upper of his shoes, and the shoulder armor, arms and wrists to the back of his hands were covered with armor, but the outside of his left arm was obviously wider, forming a strange existence that looked like a shield but not a shield.
There is also a beast's head on his waist, and his face is covered with a demon-shaped mask, all black, or the kind that is black and shiny, the whole thing is like wearing a layer of iron shell, and the waist is hung obliquely, and the whole body is matched with the mask, which has a commanding power.
The silver-armored giant next to him is a little slender, of course, compared to the iron pimple next to him, he feels that his height is similar to that of the one next to him.
It's just that the armor on his body is mostly scale armor, no helmet, only a silver crown and hair, covered with silver face armor, the face armor is an ordinary person's face armor, there is a long sword across the waist, and his right hand is casually resting on the hilt of the sword.
The black-armored giant saw this little guy staying there, although he knew why, he was still unhappy in his heart, especially if he wanted to be a disciple of that guy, he was even more impatient, and then scolded: "Idiot, have you seen enough, come over when you have seen enough, let the uncle take a closer look!" ”
Chen Jing trembled, he was scolded and woke up, but this black guy's tone was really not friendly, and he didn't dare to approach.
When the black-armored giant saw that he didn't listen to him, he was even more angry, and when he was about to scold again, the silver-armored giant next to him beckoned at random, and Chen Jing's body flew towards them uncontrollably.
When passing between the two, Chen Jingqi didn't dare to breathe, and stared at them carefully, especially the black-armored giant, for fear that he would burst out and hurt people, but fortunately, there was no accident, and after a few steps past them, he broke free from the restraints and landed on his own.
Chen Jing felt even more coercion at this time, and compared his own size with his own eyes, is it just as tall as their knees, and the immortals are so tall and so big? Why is Master's appearance plain and ordinary?
The black-armored giant may have been bowing his head and neck because he was too close, so he simply squatted down, which was more comfortable, and the boy subconsciously took two steps back.
The black-armored giant sneered and said, "Little cub...... Bub. ”
Coughed, as gentle as possible, "Who told you to come to us, what do you want to do here?" ”
"I want to come here and find something so I can go home." Chen Jing couldn't figure out the relationship between these two people and Chai's seniors, so he didn't dare to say more, so as not to embarrass Chai's seniors.
The black-armored giant felt a little uncomfortable squatting, so he simply sat down cross-legged, propped his hands on his knees, and leaned forward to look at the boy, "Lao Chai asked you to come, let me tell you, that old guy is not a good person, and he specializes in deceiving you like a lonely little doll."
Did he give you something to know why you couldn't get out? It's because you took his things, or you would have gone out a long time ago. ”
Chen Jing's eyes widened when he heard it, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that something was wrong with what this big man said.
The black-armored giant continued to say: "Actually, it's easy for you to go home, it's enough to find me, as a reward, just leave the valuable good things on you, what's the matter, isn't this proposal beautiful?" Anyway, it's not your stuff in the first place, and it's not a loss to leave me, how about it? ”
Chen Jing thought for a while and said: "I begged Senior Chai to help me, but the senior just told me to come here to find something, and I didn't know what to look for, I only knew that it was related to going home."
The things on my body were also given to me by Chai seniors, if you really want it, when I find things, go back and ask Chai seniors, I don't know if it's okay? ”
As the boy spoke, the black-armored giant slowly sat upright, and before the boy finished speaking, the black-armored giant said in a low voice: "You are toasting and not eating and drinking." The tone is stiff and chilling.
In Chen Jing's attention, the black-armored giant slowly got up, drove the armor on his body to bump, making a heavy clanging sound, and the boy's breathing became heavier and heavier, and after standing up completely, the giant said, "Since that's the case......"
The silver-armored giant next to him, who had not made a sound, was no longer silent, and said, "Enough." "Don't let Hei Jia talk anymore.
Hearing these two words, the boy immediately looked back at the silver-armored giant, which reminded him of the last two words of the old man Chai, two roars came from the air, it should be these two people.
Hei Jia was a little helpless when he saw the boy's expression, and shouted as if he had broken his skills: "Which side are you standing on?" Before the show even started, you interrupted it. ”
The silver-armored giant who was called Lao Yi turned around to face the black armor at this time, "I, Yi, never stand in line, only follow the decree of the old ancestor. ”
Heijia grumbled: "Ancestor, ancestor, open your mouth and close your mouth all day long, I really think it's your ancestor, I'm still old man every day." ”
"Shut your mouth." Silver Armor shouted angrily.
The black-armored giant pretended to be stupid, pointed at the boy and scolded: "Did you hear that, little baby, what about you!" ”
While Chen Jing was a little innocent, he also decided that this black guy was not a good person, and he was still thinking of ways to take advantage of him.
The silver-armored giant couldn't stand the nonsense of his colleagues, and said to the boy, "You can go." ”
The black-armored giant stopped: "Did you say let him go, did you ask me?" After shouting for so many years, I really think I am the old one, why don't you change your surname to Da, wouldn't it be more refreshing for others to call you like this. ”
"My surname is Yi Buyi, but everyone thinks that I should be ranked first, but you have the word 'Wu' in your name, according to me, it is indeed no problem for you to rank fifth."
"Hey, the surname is Yi, it's okay, why didn't you die with such a big tone? I have forgotten who has the most soldiers in this land, do you want me to remind you! The black-armored giant pointed his thumb at himself.
"General? I think it's all minions, otherwise how could they not resist and suffer heavy casualties. Mortal generals know that 'one general is incapable of exhausting a thousand armies', but I hope that someone in my Yi is clumsy and can't see that you have a similar consciousness. ”
Facing Yinjia's words to reveal his scars, Heijia also tore his face, "Okay, your surname is Yi, I may not be able to enter your eyes, scold me and I will only fart you, but my soldiers can't tolerate your humiliation, I will meet your Thunder Sword again today, so that you know that my Doubu is not in vain." ”
The silver-armored giant no longer answered, and waved his hand at Chen Jing casually, and the autumn wind blew him towards the giant gate like a fallen leaf, and the boy was so frightened that he screamed.
This time the black armor giant did not stop him, the words of the silver armor have completely aroused his anger, his own soldiers died almost humiliating, which is a deliberate cover for himself who has died once, and now this dog's day, he actually understated his scars in general, this time he must not be good, he must be escorted to the martyrs' shrine to confess, in order to comfort the souls of the soldiers.
"I remember the last time you and I fought, you and I were not in a high position, and we fought quite happily, if it wasn't for Lao Chai and a group of old guys to help make peacemakers, you would have to break a few more bones in your body."
"I remember you didn't wear a hood for a while, and it took a long time to reduce your swelling. Oh, come to think of it, do you have two teeth that are still in line? ”
"Don't bother with it, if you have the ability, I will see for myself today that my teeth are uneven, since it is an eyesore."
The black-armored giant has been holding a mace, the black light on the gong is entangled, held high above his head, the sky is instantly covered with dark clouds, many soldiers can be seen between the ups and downs of the dark clouds, is waving the flag and shouting, there is a flag wrestler in front, holding a huge handsome flag, the flag is red and black, and a big "fight" word is written.
Seeing this, the silver-armored giant chuckled, "You can play with authority. ”
The right hand drew the sword out of the sheath, and the bursts of sword groans spread together with the roaring thunder, and the instant momentum of the unsheath overwhelmed the flag-shaking shouts of the opposing camp, and when the sword chant disappeared, the thunder also stopped together, and the sword named Thunder was actually a natal sword, and the sword body was hidden in the thunder, making others think that it was a cluster of condensed thunder and lightning.
The black-armored giant saw that he pulled out the thunderbolt, no longer greeting politely, took half a step back with his right foot, and stomped hard, the ground seemed to be stepping on the water, rippling around himself, and the stone slab shattered where he passed, and with the strength of his feet and the help of the terrain, he rolled his body and swung his arm strength to hit the opponent.
Seeing that the other party was menacing, Yinjia was already on guard with a horizontal sword in front of him, but after a while, he let out a "huh" and let him swing his hammer on him.
The black-armored giant who succeeded in one move originally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but before he could continue to attack, he felt that something was wrong, and he hit him with one move, even if he only used seven or eight percent of his strength, why did he only take half a step back?
Even if he blocked the attack, it was enough to make him feel pain, why did his tiger's mouth hurt a little bit, is this bastard so strong?
No, Black Armor raised his head and looked at the face of the silver armored giant, looking at the other party's figure back and forth from head to toe, and then looked at himself, and a sense of powerlessness came over him.
The black armor has become smaller and shorter.
Hei Jia sat on the ground and looked in the direction of the gate, and the young man cried out: "Old Zula is biased, too eccentric, all these years, he has always targeted me." ”
Then he muttered, "The old man didn't do this before, unless I got into a big disaster, what's going on this time?" ”
Then he continued to shout, "I don't accept it, I don't accept it!" ”
At this time, another voice came from the side, "Everyone is a colleague, why bother, why bother?" ”
Silver Armor noticed the comer one step earlier, an old acquaintance, and now that Black Armor has lost its fire, there is no need to make a big move, and it is casually returned to the sword into the sheath.
Hei Jia was stunned for a moment when he turned his head and saw the comer, stopped crying, and immediately ran to the comer, scolding and beating him, "Lao Chai, you bastard, you shouldn't have let you meet that surnamed Mu in the first place, what good is it for you to push me and Lao Yi out?" Now that the disciples surnamed Mu have all come, they can be regarded as completely falling into the gutter.
Now that I'm like this, all the cause and effect is caused by your old Chai and your surname Mu, and the culprits are you two bastards. Take your hands off and let me breathe. ”
"Lao Chai", who became a teenager, didn't dare to fight back, but just hugged his head and said with a smile: "Don't slap your face, don't slap your face, everything is easy to say." If you don't hit someone in the face, you will see each other in the future. ”
"In the future, you fart, Lao Tzu will have a few more in the future, and they will all be harmed by you bastard."
Hei Jia didn't continue anymore, looked at his hands, and said with a sad cry: "Dog's day, how long has it been, how long has it been, Lao Tzu beat people and beat his own hands painfully, is Lao Tzu still a fairy?" ”
Lao Chai still hugged his head and comforted: "Alas, since some things are already doomed, then let it be, at least make yourself feel better, just like now, you beat me happily, but your hands hurt, just like now, you should live again, live again." ”
Hei Jia gasped and looked at this guy who had known him for most of his life, "Thank you!" ”
Lao Chai pretended to be coquettish and said: "What kind of friendship do we have, say thank you, it's too serious." ”
After finishing speaking, he continued to be beaten, Lao Chai was dodging and blocking, now their bodies are not much better than mortals, the biggest weakness of the black armor now is the armor that changes with him, he used to be fearless in his body, but now he is in the realm, and he can't adapt to it for a while, and he is a little burdensome on his body.
Yinjia ignored their fights, and since Lao Chai came, Yinjia looked at the child, and the child finally understood the purpose of coming here.
Recalling everything that the child experienced here, as well as the things discussed at the beginning, I sighed in my heart that creation makes people, so that an ordinary mortal can become a talent, such as taking a ferry, and sailing against the current alone, both are indispensable, only perseverance, and the word "talent" can be achieved only if there is only one word "talent" among ten thousand people.
If not, they can only be ordinary people among all living beings, and even worse, they will not advance but retreat against the current, becoming "wood", and completely reduced to the torch of the copper furnace of heaven and earth.
Lao Chai, who was being beaten, glanced elsewhere while dodging, and suddenly stopped dodging, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to indicate that Heijia should take a look.
Black Armor turned his head to look to the other side, and after a brief silence, he suddenly burst into a violent laugh.
Pointing at the silver armor that had also become shorter, he laughed wildly: "Ancestor has opened his eyes, Xie Ancestor avenged me, hahahaha!" ”
After laughing, he arched his hand at the gate.
