Chapter 360: The Gatekeeper Struggling with the Shackles (1)
Yang Ji returned to the palace where he lived and looked through it. This golden palace is still well preserved, but the books that Yang Ji brought from Pingchuan City in the room are not spared. All the bookshelves were toppled and the books were thrown into a mess.
Fortunately, the creatures of the underworld were obviously not interested in these subsets of scriptures, so the damage caused was not too large.
"Wait a while, find someone to clean up. ”
Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.
The top of the hill was empty, the water in the pool was already dark, the rockery was knocked down, the incense burner fell to the ground obliquely, and the ashes were spilled.
Yang Ji didn't stop, he climbed the steps, passed through the area where all the senior brothers and senior sisters lived on the second floor, entered the empty Elder Peak at the top of the mountain, and then walked along a sheep intestine path to the highest peak of Tieguan Mountain.
Is there anyone else in Tieguan Mountain Yang Ji doesn't know. But there is a person, Yang Ji knows that it must be there.
The wind on the top of the mountain is howling, and it is cool on the body. Walking up this path, after a while, Yang Ji finally saw the only gatekeeper who had never left Tieguan Mountain in the entire underworld calamity.
Dressed in shabby clothes, covered in dirt and skinny, he sat on the cliff next to the cave, leaning on his body obliquely.
If you look at it alone, anyone will feel that this is a wandering beggar. But no beggar can survive this underworld catastrophe.
"Boy, you're finally here. I can smell you for a few kilometers. ”
The gatekeeper said with his back to the cliff and his eyes closed. The messy hair of his sideburns shook in the wind, giving people a decadent feeling, but his voice was still full of air and momentum.
Yang Ji smiled, pulled his right hand, and took out a jar of wine from the mustard bottle. The wine was purchased from Langya City when Yang Jilin set off.
"The seniors are really good noses. ”
Yang Ji smiled, put the wine jar in front of the gatekeeper, patted the mud seal, and a smell of wine immediately emanated:
"I didn't bring anything with me this time, so I brought this bottle of wine. Let's try it. ”
The gatekeeper did not refuse, his nose twitched, smelled the aroma of wine in the air, and suddenly sighed:
"I really don't think I've ever drunk alcohol. Boy, you have a heart. ”
grabbed the wine given by Yang Ji, raised his hands, raised his neck, and drank it from the mouth of the altar. This heroic appearance surprised Yang Ji.
The gatekeeper grunted, and while drinking, he showed a look of reminiscence, and the look in his eyes was complicated, and he didn't know what was in mind.
Yang Ji didn't bother, watched him grunt and drank, then let out a long sigh of relief and put down the wine jar.
"Haven't the sects ever brought you wine?"
Yang Ji suddenly wondered.
"Hmph. You've been here a few times, when have you ever seen them bring me wine?"
The gatekeeper looked at Yang Ji and sneered.
Yang Ji had pretended to be a fireworker disciple to deliver food to the gatekeeper before, and if he thought about it carefully, there was really no wine in that meal.
"Don't talk about alcohol. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to change the food for me?"
The gatekeeper said coldly.
Yang Ji suddenly sighed. He only now realized that the gatekeeper's situation on the mountain might be worse than he thought.
"I was suddenly curious. The underworld calamity has been for a few months, and in these few months, there is no one on the Iron Crown Mountain, so naturally it is impossible for anyone to send you to you. How the hell have you been here these past few months? It seems that the Martial Saint is going to eat too, right?"
Yang Jidao.
"Hmph, wouldn't it be that without you people from the Iron Crown Sect, would I really starve to death? Don't worry, the old man has been eating meat for the past few months. ”
The gatekeeper snorted coldly.
"Eat meat?"
Yang Ji was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, his face was slightly pale, and he was surprised: "You eat dead human flesh?"
There is no one on the Iron Crown Mountain, and if the gatekeeper wants to eat meat, he will eat the corpses of evil spirits, yakshasas, and rakshasas. No wonder the top of the mountain is so clean when you go up the mountain.
"Fart, where did you kid go!"
The gatekeeper saw through Yang Ji's thoughts at a glance, and immediately became furious: "Even if the old man dies, it is impossible to eat the corpses of those evil ghosts and yakshas." Look what that is?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the corner between the cliff and the cave. Yang Ji took a closer look and found a clump of shaggy, gray-brown hair.
"There's not much else in the mountains like this. There are still a lot of things like mountain rats, cockroaches, centipedes, spiders, etc. I'm not starving to death so easily. ”
The gatekeeper said angrily.
"Hahaha......"
Yang Ji couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the gatekeeper's blushing face. He made several contacts with the gatekeeper, and each time he had the advantage, and when he first chased and killed the two evil martial artists who owned the Earth Walking Boat, he also put him together.
This is the first time I have seen the goalkeeper's popularity and deflated.
"Enough. Boy, there's nothing funny about that. As for that thing, you're never going to come to me at the top of the mountain for no reason. What about that thing, take it out. ”
The gatekeeper said in a deep voice.
Yang Ji smiled, and the point was so far, it didn't embarrass the gatekeeper too much.
"Hehe, the seniors are smart. I can't hide anything from you. ”
Yang Ji looked at the gatekeeper, Shi Shiran, and sat down in front of him with a calm face:
"My character, even if I made a promise, always had to do it. Even if you reach an agreement, I will work hard to complete it for you. ”
Saying that, a black light flashed in Yang Ji's mind, and the hand of death rose against the wind, quickly changing from small to big. Seeing this palm, the gatekeeper also sighed:
"I can't see that during this time, your strength has grown extremely fast. is worthy of being the heir of the ancient Confucianism and Taoism. ”
"Huh. ”
Yang Ji just smiled and didn't answer. The hand of death slowly fell to the ground in front of the gatekeeper, and five thick fingers of steel spread out, revealing a pile of obsidian in the palm of his hand.
Black smoke billowed and a rich aura of death emanated from within the obsidian. In this strange environment full of masculinity, the aura of death in the obsidian is emanating.
However, compared to the energy that is still huge and concentrated inside. The little bit of energy that emanates is really insignificant.
Obsidian Yang Ji has been in contact with it several times. But every time I see that rich power of death, I am still afraid. Just like yellow spring water, this kind of thing is definitely not something that anyone can use.
If you don't get one right, you will hurt yourself.
"If I had known that you were asking for something like this, maybe I wouldn't have said yes at all. ”
Yang Ji's gaze changed, looking at the obsidian path in his palm.
"But you brought it anyway, didn't you?"
The gatekeeper laughed, not looking at the obsidian in the hand of death.
"That's right. But the deal was not fair and just from the start. You've been hiding too much from me. ”
Yang Jidao.
Time has passed, and obsidian has arrived. But to say that Yang Ji didn't have a little complaint, it was impossible. No one likes to be fooled.
"It's not that I'm trying to hide it from you. But according to your situation at the time, at least for a year or two, you will not be able to complete this task at all. I didn't think you could do it so quickly. ”
The gatekeeper said frankly.
"Hmph, don't take my word for it. Take these obsidians. ”
Yang Ji sneered.
The gatekeeper laughed and didn't deny it. Watching Yang Ji send the obsidian to him, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and then he stretched out into the hand of death, grabbed the obsidian, and put it in front of him.
Zizi!
Yang Ji looked carefully, and the gatekeeper's skin immediately emitted gurgling black smoke when it touched the obsidian, and the surface of the skin blackened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But the gatekeeper didn't notice it, and he didn't care.
"Boy, this vitality grass is for you. ”
The gatekeeper took the obsidian, and his thin right hand stretched out from his big sleeve, and with a sudden shake, a small grass that looked ordinary and had some withered yellow immediately burst out of the air.
The palm of the gatekeeper of this Yuan Qi Grass did not fall to the ground, but floated in the void, carrying heavy loads, and did not fall to the ground, and a strange wave spread out with the Yuan Qi Grass as the center.
Yang Ji looked at this vitality grass curiously, and his eyes were full of brilliance. There are thousands of plants and trees in the world, but it is estimated that there is only this kind of vitality grass that can float in the void.
With this special ability to float and not fall, this kind of vitality grass is already priceless. Not to mention, it also has the function of a knack.
"The old man has always kept his promise, if you bring me obsidian, I will give you the vitality grass. Don't feel like you owe it, this Vitality Grass is different from other Vitality Grass. The old man has been with him for decades, and he has never let him out. It's just because the vitality on the mountain is thin and the old man's flesh and blood are withering, so this vitality grass looks a little wilted. But in any case, the Vitality Grass is the Vitality Grass, and I won't go into details, its preciousness, you will understand it later. ”
The voice of the gatekeeper came from my ears.
"Thank you, seniors. ”
Yang Ji smiled slightly, and with a flick of his palm, a wave of blood enveloped the Yuan Qi grass in the air, and as soon as it was retracted, it immediately turned into a ball of streamer and submerged into his sleeve, and was quickly incorporated into the mustard bottle.
This kind of good stuff is still safe to include in the mustard bottle.
The gatekeeper watched Yang Ji collect the Yuan Qi Grass, and the expression in his eyes was complicated.
"Seniors are reluctant?"
Yang Ji said with a smile.
"After all, it's something that has been with me for decades. ”
The gatekeeper said lightly, turned his head, and did not deny it.
Yang Ji smiled and glanced at the gatekeeper, but he could understand. The gatekeeper was ragged and depressed, and with his situation in the here and now, he could still keep a vitality grass on his body, which showed that this thing really meant something to him.
As he said, what has been on the body for decades, accompanied by emotion, is not as simple as a vitality grass.
"If the seniors are reluctant, I can return the Vitality Grass to you. ”
Yang Ji said with a smile.
"Hmph, what do you think of the old man? A gentleman's word, a quick horse. The words that come out are the water that is spilled. How could the old man regret it. Take your vitality grass and get the hell out of me. ”
The gatekeeper said angrily.
Yang Ji smiled, but did not leave. Still sitting across from the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper glanced at Yang Ji a few times, waited for a while, but found that Yang Ji had no intention of leaving at all.
"Boy, the Vitality Grass has been given to you. What are you still doing here?"
The gatekeeper finally couldn't help but say angrily.
"Senior, you seem to have forgotten something. ”
Yang Ji put away his smile and said seriously.
"What do you mean, boy?"
The gatekeeper's face was slightly gloomy.
"Senior, have you forgotten? In addition to the Yuanqi Grass, you seem to have promised to tell me the whereabouts of another Wensheng pen and ink. ”
Yang Ji is good at flawing.
"Hehe, I just remember exchanging Genki Grass for Obsidian, it doesn't seem to be in our trading range. ”
The gatekeeper leaned back, leaned against the cliff, and smiled faintly. R1152
