Chapter 11: Brother and Sister Worship (I)
"What's the matter with you?" Chen Keyi walked over, helped Yang Xiaowu up, and said with a straight face, with a sour taste in his tone. Yang Xiaowu laughed miserably and said, "It's okay." I just want to try your sword skills to see if you're powerful. ”
Chen Keyi glanced at me and said, "Look at your virtue." Flim tongue, no serious words. Tell me, what the hell just happened?"
"Haha, Sister Keyi, Sister Keyi. I know, I know, do you want me to tell you?" Zhang Yuxin walked over with a smile while touching her shoulder, and said, "The beautiful and powerful female zombie just now is Brother Yang's sister." But she doesn't seem to know Brother Yang anymore. Chen Keyi listened to Zhang Yuxin's words and looked at Yang Xiaowu in surprise.
Yang Xiaowu nodded and said, "Yes." I haven't seen her for more than 1,500 years. Once upon a time she disappeared, I thought she was eaten by her eldest brother. Now it seems that it is not, looking at her green eyes, it should be with me, and the eldest brother, who was bitten by that marble at the same time. It's just that I don't know why she became Lei Batian's subordinate. ”
Chen Keyi nodded and said, "Hmm." We'll talk about that later. How are you, are you badly injured?"
Yang Xiaowu saw that Chen Keyi didn't seem to mind, touched his head, and said, "It seems that there is nothing wrong." I just decided that something seemed to be in my body, and I didn't feel much pain, just a little itching. However, after being punched a few times by that flying zombie, it hurt a little, and now it is much better. ”
"Brother Yang, why do you have so many purple things on your chest? Pools and pools, like dirty water!" Zhang Yuxin pointed to my chest, her eyes wide open, full of curiosity.
"It's his zombie blood. Your eldest brother Yang belongs to the purple zombie clan among the zombies, so the blood is purple. Chen Keyi explained, while inspecting Yang Xiaowu's wound, his face was full of doubts, and said, "Hey, why did your wound heal so quickly! I know that zombies are injured, as long as they are not fatal, they will heal automatically, and I have seen a lot." But you are the first one who can heal so quickly after being hit by my sword technique!"
"Sister Keyi, what is the color of the other zombie bloods? Are they all purple?" Zhang Yuxin was particularly curious about Yang Xiaowu's zombie blood, and dipped her fingers in him and studied it on the side. Without waiting for Chen Keyi to answer, the Hundred Losses Dao Chief had already said: "It seems that Mr. Yang's special ability as a purple zombie is imitation learning, as well as the ability to heal the body. ”
After hearing this, Chen Keyi also agreed: "It seems that this is the case. ”
If it had been in the past, Yang Xiaowu might have been very happy when he heard such words. But now, I don't know why, I can't be happy in my heart. He thought that it was probably because he finally saw his little sister, but his little sister didn't know him anymore.
Chen Keyi asked the sword slave what happened after she fainted, and without waiting for the sword slave to speak, Zhang Yuxin had already crackled and fainted them, how she and the sword slave carried Chen Keyi and the others up the mountain, how they met the attack of the snakes, and how they came to the stone henge.
Yang Xiaowu looked at Zhang Yuxin and thought of Yang Xueying. For more than 1,500 years, he never knew what kind of life Yang Xueying was living, he always felt that he couldn't take care of her, owed her too much, and wanted to do something for her.
Chen Keyi listened to Zhang Yuxin's words and said: "Lei Batian has done so many things because of this ancient book. As long as the ancient book is not successful for a day, he will not give up, and will definitely send someone to grab it again. I see that everyone is also very tired, so it is better to go back and rest first. After thinking about it in the long term, make a plan. After Chen Keyi finished speaking, she looked at the stone formation, sighed, and helped Yang Xiaowu to walk back.
"Xue Ying doesn't seem to remember me. What the hell is going on, can you probably guess?" Yang Xiaowu really didn't know what to do, so he could only ask Chen Keyi for help.
Chen Keyi shook her head and said, "I don't know about zombies. Chen Keyi said, glanced at him, and continued, "However, I think Lei Batian should know, you can ask him." What's more, your sister is still his subordinate. Chen Keyi was afraid that he would misunderstand, and explained, "I'm not ridiculing you. Although our Heavenly Master and the zombie are incompatible, since I have come into contact with Lei Batian twice, I feel that with his character, even if you don't give him the ancient book, he should tell you!"
Yang Xiaowu shook his head and said, "Even if that's the case, I don't plan to ask him." Not to mention that he coveted this ancient book, I even suspect that Xue Ying's transformation into a zombie has something to do with him. I can't say that Xue Ying doesn't remember me, it's because of what he did. ”
When Zhang Yuxin heard them talking, she also walked over, took Yang Xiaowu's arm, and said, "Brother Yang, you're right, I support you." In my opinion, we might as well catch the zombie king called Lei Batian, and whip it vigorously, so that his zombie blood will flow out along with the wound drawn out of the whip until it is finished, and see if he says it. Oh, by the way, Sister Keyi, what color is Lei Batian's zombie blood!"
Chen Keyi glanced at her and said, "How do I know." Why don't you ask him yourself!"
Zhang Yuxin pouted and said innocently: "I can't beat him, and I can't spell." How can I ask him? Maybe when he saw me, he immediately grabbed me, and whipped me back, and said miles as he went back. You little girl, it's finally all in my hands, you killed so many of my subordinates, see if I don't kill you. ”
Chen Keyi shook her head helplessly and ignored Yuxin.
Along the way, thinking that Lei Batian didn't know what his next move would be, everyone was relatively speechless. Zhang Yuxin originally liked to talk the most, but when she saw that everyone was silent, she didn't dare to speak. When passing by the nightshade fragrant flowers, Zhang Yuxin looked at the flowers that had been disturbed by the snakes, seemed to think of something, and suddenly became excited, and said, "Brother Yang, don't you have something to find the Taoist? Why don't you ask?"
As soon as Zhang Yuxin said it, Yang Xiaowu remembered that he had forgotten to ask Daoist Bai about the December flower. Yang Xiaowu looked at the Hundred Losses Dao Chief, and didn't know what answer he could give him, so he should first find Ke Yi to use astrology to divination. Yang Xiaowu looked at Chen Keyi and said, "Keyi." Didn't I ask you about the December flowers at the inn before, and now that you're back on the mountain, see if you can help me with my divination. ”
"Okay! I just don't know what Lei Batian's next move will be, so let's go find December Flower first. Chen Keyi said, stopped, and said to the Hundred Loss Dao Elder and them, "Master, I have something to do with Brother Yang, and I want to go to the sacrificial room." Go back and rest. Sword slave, protect the master, if there is any situation, immediately send a message to warn. ”
"Okay. With the sword slave and the little girl here, it will be fine, so you can go and deal with your own affairs!" said the Hundred Loss Dao Chief, and entered the house. The sword slave didn't speak, and followed in.
Zhang Yuxin walked over and said, "Brother Yang, what are you and Sister Ke Yi going to do? Why don't you take me with you? I'm going there too! Sister Ke Yi, is the sacrificial room you are talking about the same house with glowing crystals, blackened turtle shells, and a lot of maps that I can't read? If it is there, I will go too." You don't know, I didn't say a few words to the big wood of the sword slave from morning to night, and I was very bored. ”
"We're here to get down to business, you think we're going to have fun! Besides, that sacrificial chamber is for astrology. With your character, when there is no quiet time all day long, if you go, it will inevitably divide my god, so that I can't calm down and divination. I think it's better for you to stay at home in peace. ”
Zhang Yuxin heard that she was going to the house in the back mountain, and knew that Chen Keyi was going to astrology, so she was excited and curious, so she refused to stay alone. Chen Keyi had no choice but to take her with her.
In fact, not only Zhang Yuxin, but Yang Xiaowu was also very curious. Since the Neolithic Age, there has been a talk of divination, but at that time the people's minds were not civilized, and astrology could only be the prerogative of the royal family. As the dynasties continued to improve, so did the status of astrology. Since the Qin Dynasty, astrology has been entirely under the government and is an important part of the work of the astronomical institutions set up by the government. By the Ming Dynasty, the situation was even worse. Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, after borrowing Liu Bowen, who was familiar with astronomy and astronomy, believed that those who knew astronomical and astronomical phenomena should not be neglected, so he ordered that folk learning should be prohibited, and violators would be punished.
Chen Keyi told Yang Xiaowu that in the feudal period, astrology could be called the science of the emperor, but anyone who was proficient in this way would be valued by the emperor, such as Zhuge Kongming in the Three Kingdoms period, such as Liu Bowen in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty. In fact, astrology is not only a science, but also a very unfathomable and profound spell. Astrologers with high mana can even change the trajectory of the stars, that is, astrology. People who are proficient in the art of astrology are often referred to as having unpredictable powers. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Kongming Chibi borrowed the east wind and used the longitudinal star technique.
Coming to the sacrificial room, Chen Keyi told Yang Xiaowu. Those crystals that can glow are all opened by spells, and they can be immortalized for hundreds or even thousands of years. As for those turtle shells and the like, they are all things that are used for divination. However, astrology does not use these, astrology has special tools.
Yang Xiaowu originally wanted to ask, what kind of appliances are there. He saw that he had already arrived at the sacrificial room, and thought that even if Chen Keyi said it, he didn't understand, and when Zhang Yuxin heard it, he chattered and asked non-stop, so he didn't ask again.
"Astrology, like tortoise shell divination, used to be mainly used to account for national events, weather conditions, war matters, etc. During the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty, it finally began to focus on personal predictions, and gradually developed into astrology. Astrology is a system that uses the relative positions and relative movements of celestial bodies to explain or predict the fate and behavior of people. It is the use of one's birthplace, time of birth, and position of celestial bodies to explain one's character and destiny. Chen Keyi said, took a silver needle, walked up to Yang Xiaowu, and said, "The problem now is that what you want to divinate is not an ordinary person, but a spiritual plant. No one has ever tried divination, and I don't know if it will work. The December Flower can be said to be a fetish among zombies, and it has a lot to do with you zombies. I'll take a drop of zombie blood from you here, use the blood as a guide, and try divination, maybe the chance of success will be a little greater. ”
Chen Keyi said, pricking Yang Xiaowu's hand with a silver needle. Zhang Yuxin watched from the side, her eyes widened, and she seemed to be curious and asked me: "Brother Yang, do you zombies feel pain!"
Yang Xiaowu patted her head and said, "We zombies are just immortal, and the others are the same as normal people." ”
"So, Brother Yang, you have been a zombie for more than 1,500 years, I will calculate, isn't it the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, you have experienced it! Tell me quickly, what are some interesting things? Is there really a famous ......general such as Yue Fei and Yang Liulang?"
Chen Keyi glanced at me, smiled helplessly, and said, "I think there must be a lot of stories about your Brother Yang, even if you don't, you must have seen or heard many stories that are not in the history books." It's better to go outside to chat with Brother Yang first, it will take a long time for me to prepare horoscopes here, and I'll tell you when I'm ready. ”
"Good. Sister Keyi, you must call me!" Zhang Yuxin said, and pulled Yang Xiaowu out.
