Chapter 5: The Past of the Sword Slave (II)

Chen Keyi was taken aback when she saw Yang Xiaowu's very interested in the sword slave, and said in surprise: "No, isn't it? But to be honest, the expression of the sword slave is indeed a bit different from ordinary people, and ordinary people will be afraid. ”

Yang Xiaowu was told by Chen Keyi, and had to admit it, saying: "At first, it did mean something, but it wasn't scared. Forget it, don't mention it, you still talk about the sword slave. ”

Chen Keyi smiled and blinked her eyes, and said, "Okay! I remember that I was only seven years old that year, and that day I was divining the astrological signs as usual, and the result was that there was a problem, and the celestial phenomena were all messy three times in a row. So, I went to ask Master what was going on, but Master said he didn't know. Master said that he did not have the blood and spiritual power of a shaman, so he could not be an astrologer, nor did he understand astrology......"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaowu felt very strange, a person who didn't understand astrology actually came out with such a powerful disciple, he asked Keyi curiously: "Why doesn't your master understand astrology, then who did you learn astrology?"

Master just taught me to read and write, and then when I was five years old, Master gave me a very heavy book. He said that this book is a translation of everything about astrology that has been recorded on the carapace by the high priests of the past generations. That's what I learned about astrology. ”

Yang Xiaowu nodded, feeling a little unbelievable in his heart, and asked again, "What is the relationship between a shaman and an astrologer?"

Seeing that he didn't understand, Chen Keyi explained: "The priest, that is, the priest, is the representative of the communication between man and God. Through various rituals, the priests convey the consciousness and requirements of people to the gods, and then convey the will of the gods to people. In order to become a shaman, you must first become an astrologer. ”

Yang Xiaowu nodded and said jokingly: "Oh, so that's the case. Hey, then you have occupied the astrological signs for so many years, don't you often chat with the gods? ”

Chen Keyi glared at him and said, "You often chat with the gods! Where are the gods in this world, the shaman is just able to divinate good fortune and predict disasters through astrology." You always ask this and that, do you want to know about the sword slave?"

Yang Xiaowu raised his hands high, indicated his avatar, and said, "Okay." You've won! Go on, keep going. ”

"I remember at that time, Master just said, I don't know everything about astrology, you can only find the answer yourself. So, I went to the cliff to meditate. When Master encountered any problems in the past, and he couldn't solve them, he would go to the cliff to meditate. Later, after I came, the cliff became my exclusive use, and Master never went there again. I thought about it for 7749 days on the cliff, and finally it dawned on me. When I did the divination again, it was successful. I know that there is a cave in Fanjing Mountain, the main peak of Wuling Mountain, and there is an ancient sword hidden in the cave, which is the magic weapon of Zhong Kui, the master of ghost hunting in the Tang Dynasty, who somehow ended up here. ”

Yang Xiaowu was taken aback when he heard Chen Keyi say that he had calculated Zhong Kui's sword, and said in surprise: "I never knew that you were so powerful, you were able to calculate a sword, and the position was so accurate, it was really more accurate than measuring it with a measuring instrument." ”

"Phew. Thou shouldest speak, when thou art good and obedient, thy mouth is like honey. When he says something unpleasant, it seems to have a ** hidden under his tongue. In fact, I can't really divinate these, but the sword follows Zhong Kui to drive away evil spirits and catch ghosts, do righteous things, and become contaminated with aura, and have spirituality. When I divined, the celestial phenomena were spiritually influenced by the sword. According to the hexagram, I came to Fanjing Mountain alone......"

This Fanjing Mountain is worthy of being the source of Wuling, the sect of the famous mountain, the terrain is high, the air convection is strong, and contains a lot of water vapor, it is easy to form a sea of clouds and wonders.

That day, Chen Keyi came to Fanjing Mountain alone, and she couldn't use astrology to tell the specific location of the sword, just when she was hesitating, she saw a figure floating on the side of the golden dome in the distance, as if she was fighting for life and death. At this moment, Chen Keyi sensed a strong evil aura, and she immediately thought that there must be something ghostly there. However, in broad daylight, being able to walk so freely and without taboos is definitely not an ordinary demonic thing. So Chen Keyi cheered up and rushed over there.

When Chen Keyi arrived, she found out that it was a wild wolf fighting a zombie to the death, and there was a boy about eleven or twelve years old next to him who was seriously injured and fell to the ground.

The wild wolf was much larger than the average wolf, with sharp teeth and claws, and was extremely ferocious. Even so, the wolf still couldn't hurt the zombie for half a point. Chen Keyi could see clearly, the zombie had a rich black body hair on its body, judging from this decent feature, he should belong to the zombie among the zombies, and he was second only to the most powerful white murderer. No wonder it's so powerful.

Although the stiff hair was powerful, it did not clash head-on with the wild wolf, but only sniffed the smell of blood, and did not stop leaning towards the boy who had passed out on the ground from all directions. But the wolf did everything in his power to prevent him from getting near the boy. Chen Keyi saw this appearance and knew that the wild wolf was protecting the boy.

The stiff man finally couldn't stand the wolf's obstruction in every way, and clashed head-on with it. Mao is frozen among the zombies, although he has a very strong defensive ability, but he has a big flaw in himself, that is, his arms and legs cannot be bent, and he can only jump and walk. Otherwise, no matter how fierce the wild wolf was, how could it resist Mao Zhuang's attack for a long time! But even so, the wild wolf could not support Mao Zhuang's powerful defense system. After all, the wild wolf is an ordinary creature, there is no strong energy, and Mao Zhuang is basically immune to physical attacks, and it is not easy for the wild wolf to support it for such a long time.

The wild wolf knew that Mao Zhuang was powerful, and when he saw Mao Zhuang taking a frontal attack on it, he hurriedly dodged to the side, and when Mao Zhuang jumped towards the boy, the wild wolf pounced from the side again. After repeating this, Mao Zhuang could not get into the boy's side.

Seeing this scene, Chen Keyi couldn't help but admire the wolf's cleverness. It's a pity that Fei Zombie is not a fool, after all, the cultivation has reached such a point, and it is not comparable to ordinary walking corpses. After the wild wolf repeated it many times, Fei Zombie took advantage of the fact that the wild wolf's defense gradually weakened, and after the wild wolf jumped up, when he just reached his side, he turned around suddenly, and slapped a palm on the wild wolf's chest. With the toughness of this body, coupled with the strength that had been accumulated for a long time, this palm actually cracked the wolf's chest through the bones and fell to the ground.

When he saw that the wolf had finally fallen, he ignored it and jumped straight at the boy. Although the wolf was badly wounded and fell to the ground, he did not die. It saw Fei Stiff jumping towards the boy, ** a few times, its limbs suddenly strengthened, and before its body stood up, it had already jumped to the side of Mao Stiff. Before he could figure out what was going on, he had already been bitten by a wolf on the arm.

The wild wolf's death-defying blow was very different from the previous means of harassing the enemy, it was a hard blow that gathered the strength of the whole body, although Mao Zhuang was strong, he was also bitten by the wild wolf and his flesh and blood were blurred. Mao stiffened his arm was bitten by the wild wolf and couldn't break free, and the other arm slapped mechanically. The strength of the wild wolf had already been exhausted in the final blow of Fang Cai, and he was only a mortal fetus, how could he resist the fierce blow of Mao Stiff under the urgency, and his skull was immediately shattered, dying, and he was just going to die.

Chen Keyi saw that although it was about to die, it still bit Mao Zhuang's arm with one bite, and she couldn't help but admire it in her heart. I saw the wolf's eyes slowly turning, looking at the boy, with a little more color in his eyes, as if he was apologizing, and as if he was saying goodbye. At that moment, the boy woke up. When he saw this, he was filled with grief and indignation, and he fainted again in a moment of anger.

Chen Keyi was moved by the wolf's loyalty and decided to save the boy. However, you must know that Chen Keyi was only seven years old at this time, and although he had been cultivating for a long time, he was Mao Zhuang's opponent. When he was hesitating, he saw a cave not far away, Chen Keyi didn't have time to think about it, and before Mao Zhuang came to the boy, he ran over quickly and hid in the cave with him on his back.

Mao Zhuang followed the bloody breath, and actually followed behind, and also came to the entrance of the cave. Chen Keyi saw Mao Zhuang coming, and his heart sank, you must know that although this cave can restrict Mao Zhuang's movements, but Mao Zhuang is not an ordinary zombie after all, not to mention that Chen Keyi's method of driving away corpses and subduing demons is just a first glimpse of the door, just with Mao Zhuang's strong defense, Chen Keyi can't defeat it.

Chen Keyi was thinking hard about a plan to break the enemy in the cave, but he didn't come in, but kept jumping at the entrance of the cave. Chen Keyi couldn't figure out why, but looking at the form, Mao Stiff wouldn't come in for a while. Chen Keyi went to see the boy and found that he was dying and dying. Chen Keyi came to Fanjing Mountain this time, not to save people, and there were no herbs on her body. At this moment, the two were trapped in the cave and could not go out to find medicine. Chen Keyi was about to give up, when he accidentally saw a strain of Ganoderma lucidum growing not far from the cave, which should have grown here for hundreds of years. Chen Keyi hurriedly took it off and fed it to the boy, and finally saved his life.

After Chen Keyi saved the boy's life, when she went to see the flying stiffness, she was gone. At this moment, Chen Keyi saw a faint light flickering in the cave, and when she looked closely, it was the place where she had just picked the lingzhi, and there was a coffin-shaped long wooden box, and the light was emitted by the wooden box. It turned out that Chen Keyi was dedicated to saving people, and he didn't notice that there was such a wooden box next to Lingzhi.

When Yang Xiaowu heard this, he couldn't help but interject and ask, "That wooden box must be filled with Zhong Kui's sword?"

Chen Keyi nodded and said, "Hmm." Yes. The Lingzhi that was eaten by the sword slave was grown by absorbing the spirit of the sword. Later, when he returned to the mountain, he named him Jiannu, which is exactly why. The weather in Fanjing Mountain is changeable, there is a lot of rain, and it will rain if you want to see it, and the sword slave was unconscious at that time. I saw that he was pitiful, and I was worried that his stomach would be in danger if it was left on the mountain, so I rescued him. When he returned, Master examined his body and found that there were many places on his body that were too badly injured and hurt his brain. Although he was finally saved, it still affected his intelligence after all. Coupled with the death of the wild wolf, it hit him hard, and left a shadow in his heart, and finally became like this. ”

When Yang Xiaowu heard this, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the wild wolf, sighed, and said, "It's a pity that the wild wolf is so loyal." People are driven by profits, and many times the things they do are often inferior to animals. ”

"Yes. I think their relationship should be very deep, I remember that when the sword slave woke up, he didn't see the wolf, the whole person was crazy, desperately running towards the mountain, and he didn't know the road, only knew that he was running around on the mountain road. The master was worried that something would happen to him, so he could only use his mana to restrain him first. Later, after he recovered from his injuries, he finally returned to Fanjing Mountain, found the body of the wild wolf, buried it, and cried for three days and three nights before returning. Since then, the sword slave has been following me. When the master saw him like this, he just taught him some simple techniques for chasing corpses, as well as some self-defense skills. ”

Yang Xiaowu sighed and said, "No wonder I saw that he was ruthless and fast, and he took people's lives, it turned out that it was because of this kind of thing." ”

In fact, I didn't know it at first, but after a long time, I realized that every time I encountered a ghostly thing, the sword slave always rushed to the front, and he was ruthless. I think it was caused by the shadow that incident left on him. ”

Yang Xiaowu said: "The innkeeper also told me about the deeds of the sword slave, which is not much different from what you said, but why did the aunt say that the sword slave was injured by a wild beast?"

Ke Yi smiled, with a little contempt in his smile, and said, "People always rely on their own knowledge and insight to know and understand the world, and call it reality. But knowledge and insight are actually very ambiguous things, which use this so-called reality to bind people and make them live in self-consciousness. For example, people know very little about ghosts, and they always dare not and are even more reluctant to believe in their existence, but they are real. Therefore, people would rather the sword slave be wounded by wild beasts. ”

Yang Xiaowu understands that this kind of heart, just as why God is worshipped, is a sense of awe born of ignorance.
