Chapter 153: Elixir, Immortal Lock (2-in-1)
Chen Kuang's pupils reflected the light of fire, and it also reflected the appearance of the Taoist priest who could almost be called ugly.
A subtle chill crept up the back, like a worm sticking out countless feet and climbing up the skin.
The Taoist priest in front of him, although he looked like a person, gave him the feeling that he was so inexplicably disgusting.
Today, he finally saw the culprit who caused him to be displaced and hunted down from the beginning of the crossing...... One.
The former national teacher of the Liang Kingdom, the one who refined the elixir and dedicated it to Su Yu in legend.
And it is very likely that it was also for Su Yu to give advice, making him the existence of the bone shadow gangrene behind Chen Kuang.
But the strange thing is that Chen Kuang can't feel this person's cultivation.
In the incarnation of bad karma belonging to Han Shan and Tongshi, Chen Kuang already knew that Jiang Wuya, who was arrested in the Jingnan Palace, had not cultivated and was completely a mortal.
However, Chen Kuang thought in his heart that Jiang Wuya must be disguised.
How could such a character not be cultivated?
Even though under normal circumstances, it is difficult for a cultivator to judge the other party's cultivation in preparation, as long as there is aura on the body, then the aura and momentum will be different, and you can generally know which realm the other person is at.
Even if others can't see it, but Chen Kuang has a passive "hole in the fire", how can he not feel the cultivation of the other party?
But when Chen Kuang really faced Jiang Wuya, he found that he ......
On the other party, he really can't see any aura at all, and he has no cultivation at all!
"How could it be ......"
Chen Kuang took a deep breath in his heart and raised his vigilance.
With his knowledge of the world, this anomaly represents the real danger.
Because he was sure that the other party couldn't have not cultivated-
How could a person with no cultivation appear in front of him quietly, and he didn't even have the slightest notice or warning before this?
But whether it is "watching the fire" or "whim", it seems to have failed.
This is unprecedented!
Su Huaiying's pupils constricted next to her, and in her memory, she had seen this leper-headed Taoist priest.
But at that time, she was still in infancy, and this person seemed to be in front of Su Yu and gave her life, but she had no impression of what she said specifically.
Even if she is talented and intelligent, Su Huaiying can only remember what happened six months later at most, and before that, it was chaos.
But the identity of this person, she is clear.
After Liang Guoguo was broken, this person disappeared directly, and the people from the National Teacher's Mansion went to the empty building, as if he was a fake Taoist priest who was deceived into offering Jindan as written in all the words.
If it is said that he is seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, he is afraid of being implicated, but he is here again at this moment, and the target is directly aimed at Chen Kuang, what is the purpose?
Chen Kuang calmed down, took out the glass lamp, flicked it with his fingers, and said slowly:
"You told King Jingnan about my whereabouts and identity, right?"
As soon as the glass shadow lamp appeared, the light in the broken temple was immediately blazing, and the shadows of everything dissolved in this light.
Only behind Chen Kuang, not only did he retain his own shadow, but also had an even taller shadow.
Wearing twelve crowns, the face of the emperor!
On Su Huaiying's little face, her expression was suddenly shocked.
Combined with the previous conversation with that Zhang Zhizhou, the little princess finally understood what the puzzle piece she didn't know was.
Her father really didn't die, not only did he not die, but he also possessed Chen Kuang's body through some means!
It seems that he is waiting for the reality to devour Chen Kuang......
Jiang Wuya smiled, rubbed his hands and said:
"That's not for self-preservation, if Poor Dao doesn't say it, then King Jingnan will be fierce, not only to torture Poor Dao, but also to Poor Dao's life."
"Self-preservation?"
Chen Kuangpi didn't smile: "I remember that Wen Yu seems to have put 'red dragon thorns' on both of your feet, if you don't cultivate, you will definitely not be able to break free." ”
"But now, not only did you break free, but you still seem to be unscathed, I don't know this, what does the Taoist say?"
Jiang Wuya's feet and ankles were really intact, and there was no scar at all, except for the thick layer of dirt.
The leprosy-headed Taoist priest looked down, scratched his legs, and muttered:
"Mistake, mistake, how can he know about this?"
He raised his head, grinned his yellow teeth, and said, "Don't care about this kind of detail." ”
Chen Kuang said in a deep voice: "Okay, then I won't go around in circles, I only have one question to know, what is the elixir?" ”
In his opinion, since Jiang Wuya had told all the so-called "ghosts behind him", he must not intend to hide the whole thing.
What he wants is nothing more than a truth, and he doesn't want to be a pawn who is muddy and at the mercy of others.
Jiang Wuya spread his hands and said, "I don't know this poor way." ”
Chen Kuang sneered: "The elixir was offered by you, don't you know?" ”
What kind of dragon medicine is offered, this kind of talk is okay to deceive ghosts, but if you take it out now, this Jiang Wuya just wants to fool the fool.
Jiang Wuya looked at him, his eyes flashing with an almost magnificent purple brilliance:
"The elixir is the elixir, but what the elixir is, I really don't know."
Chen Kuang was silent.
Can the Riddler get out of Cangyuan?!
Chen Kuang took a deep breath.
Well, even if he guessed, he could roughly understand what Jiang Wuya meant.
The elixir itself is indeed an elixir.
This point has long been verified in the status column, and Chen Kuang obtained the "Meat Ganoderma lucidum" passively after digesting the elixir.
But what does the "elixir" represent, which is unreasonable and should not appear like a "perpetual motion machine"?
Jiang Wuya didn't know either.
Chen Kuang pondered for a moment, and then changed his question:
"Since you don't know, how can you help me kill the monster behind me."
He pointed to Su Yu's shadow, and the shadow also followed his movements, which was quite terrifying.
"Didn't this thing possess me through the elixir?"
Jiang Wuya said:
"Let's listen to the poor one by one."
"Six years ago, Poor Dao heard that the Emperor of Liang was looking for a capable person to refine the elixir, so he volunteered to share the emperor's worries, but he didn't expect that this elixir had already been in the hands of the emperor long ago."
"He is looking for people, just to hide people's eyes and ears, to rationalize the appearance of this elixir."
Chen Kuang listened, "I am the spiritual machine" passively took effect immediately, and judging that Jiang Wuya was telling the truth, made him feel a little more relaxed.
Although I don't know what the purpose of this guy is, at least he is telling the truth.
That's enough.
Chen Kuang then frowned and asked, "It has appeared a long time ago, where did the elixir come from?" ”
If it is produced in a normal way, there should be no need to hide people's eyes.
Something is wrong!
Jiang Wuya sighed: "Who would have thought that this elixir would actually condense from the national fortune of the Liang Kingdom!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Kuang and Su Huaiying were shocked.
Born directly from the national fortune of Liang State?!
This is not just a casual talk, national fortune is the foundation of a country!
Previously, Chen Kuang had persuaded the Emperor of Yangguo to invite the national fortune, which forced him to suppress a saint!
It can be seen that the power of national fortune is very powerful.
It is said that in ancient times, the fortunes of the country were even more terrifying, and they could directly affect the strength of a country's practitioners, carry out unimaginable blessings, and produce all kinds of miracles.
And today's national fortune is already weakened after I don't know how many versions it looks like.
But I didn't expect that in the national fortune of Liang Guo, an elixir was born?!
Doesn't that mean that the national fortunes of the Liang State have a harbinger of reviving the ancient weather?
For an emperor, isn't that a real auspicious fortune from heaven!
But Jiang Wuya continued: "However, not long after that, the national fortunes of the Liang State have been in infinite decline and are almost on the verge of extinction. ”
"Sure enough, it didn't take long for the news of the elixir in the hands of the Emperor of Liang State to leak, and the State of Zhou began to send troops to harass and probe."
"Alas, poor General Huo alone, after supporting it for four years, there is no way to continue."
"Then, naturally, the Liang defense line was broken, the black armor army was overwhelmed, millions of corpses were ambushed, the imperial city was broken, the emperor was killed, and the wife was imprisoned......"
When Chen Kuang heard this, he sneered in a low voice:
"But these, Su Yu actually had a premonition."
"It is only a matter of time before the fortunes of the country decline and the Liang State collapse...... Before that, however, he had already figured out a way out. ”
Jiang Wuya grinned and looked at Chen Kuang: "That's right, the way to retreat is you." ”
Chen Kuang took a deep breath: "This candidate shouldn't have been chosen by Su Yu himself, right?" ”
Jiang Wuya nodded and said, "That's right, that's right." ”
He stretched out his thin fingers, pointed at himself, shook his head, and said triumphantly:
"It's just a little talent, it's the poor road, and I found that among the court musicians, there is a person who has a very good life, enough to retreat from the encirclement of ten thousand armies and take away this trace of vitality."
Chen Kuang: "......"
If it weren't for the fact that this guy was still useful now, he really wanted to punch him in the head directly!
It turns out that the culprit is you old thing!
Chen Kuang took a few deep breaths, and then said expressionlessly:
"I know that the national fortune and the elixir are tied together, so what happened to Su Yu, and he also became a medicinal material in the elixir?"
Jiang Wuya smiled and said, "I don't know if you've heard of the 'Immortal Lock'?" ”
Chen Kuang's brows jumped.
Of course he'd heard those three words.
Moreover, this word is still an unsolved mystery in his heart that has been sunk for a long time.
A month ago, shortly after he escaped from the imperial city, he was chased and killed by two elders of the Three Tribulations Sect, one named Wei Yan and the other named Zhao Lie.
At that time, when the two were talking as if no one was around, they mentioned the words "eternal lock".
In the conversation between the two of them, "Eternal Life Lock" should be the name of a formation, and this formation may involve "national fortune", "dragon vein" and so on.
It's just that Chen Kuang didn't know much about these things at that time.
There is no way to know what this "eternal lock" is.
Now that I think about it, I'm afraid this thing is also scary.
Chen Kuang said: "I've heard of it, but I don't know what it is." ”
Purple light flashed in Jiang Wuya's eyes, and he explained: "The so-called 'Immortal Lock' is a forbidden secret technique that has been handed down from ancient times, and only emperors who have mastered the fortune of the country can use it. ”
"This thing was originally a kind of benevolence."
"Only a merciful king who has the world in mind will use it."
"Because the function of this 'eternal life lock' formation is to sacrifice the king himself, enhance the fortune of the country, and benefit the general public at the same time."
"As long as the formation is in effect, the king will immediately sacrifice his luck, spirit, and body, and all of this will greatly increase the fortune of the country, and the people of this country will also be able to prolong their lives, and their cultivation will also be beneficial."
"Because of this formation, the king and the national fortune can be integrated, and the consciousness of the king can become the consciousness of the national fortune, in other words...... The king is the country! ”
"From then on, the king can sprinkle rain all over the country through the fortune of the country, so that the country will have peace and stability for a long time."
Jiang Wuya said faintly: "It's just that the only problem is that this king, from now on, will be trapped in the invisible and shadowless national fortune and spend an eternal life." ”
"Therefore, this secret technique is called the 'Eternal Life Lock'."
Chen Kuang frowned and said, "But...... This secret technique is now taboo. ”
"Kings are also human beings, and in such a long period of time, benevolent monarchs will also be tortured to become tyrants."
Jiang Wuya's eyes were full of excitement, and he danced with his hands:
"Exactly! Precisely! ”
"But all the kings who used the 'Eternal Life Lock' ended up without exception in the end all turned into the terrible invisible devil and buried their own country with their own hands."
"Because he is already with the fortunes of the country, and only when the fortunes of the country die, he will die with them!"
"Since then, the 'lock of eternal life' has become taboo and is no longer used."
Chen Kuang said: "Therefore, Su Yu used the 'Immortal Lock' at the last moment to tie himself to the national fortune. ”
"At the same time, you sent the national fortune to me along with the elixir?"
Jiang Wuya nodded.
"Whew......" Chen Kuang let out a sigh.
He finally understood what kind of game he was being treated as a pawn.
But the next moment, Chen Kuang frowned, and subconsciously felt that something was wrong:
"No, I heard this word from the mouth of the elders of the Three Tribulations Sect of the Zhou Kingdom before......"
Jiang Wuya grinned:
"In this world, Su Yu is not the only one who knows this secret technique."
Chen Kuang frowned: "Ji Chengtian also plans to use it?" No, it's impossible, others are still in the Zhou Kingdom, why use this secret technique? ”
Jiang Wuya laughed, his eyes widened, his expression was gloomy, and he patted his thigh and said:
"Ji Chengtian, I'm planning to reverse this secret technique!"
Chen Kuang took a deep breath abruptly.
Su Huaihuan next to her also instantly understood, and her scalp was numb: "Ji Chengtian, do you want to use the 'immortal lock' upside down?" ”
"Yes, and the target is not the people of Zhou, but ...... Liang! ”
Jiang Wuya's voice fell.
Chen Kuang's scalp was numb.
Fuck, it's all the truth!
In other words, Ji Chengtian is ready to use the people of the whole country of Liang to turn it upside down and sacrifice it to himself, and use the flesh and blood of the people of Liang to achieve the national fortune of Zhou!
