Chapter 53 Talent Promotion
The group hurried to the big stone carved with the word Plum Garden, and the ancestor of the Li family waved his hands, and the big stone was directly shattered layer by layer, revealing a huge black hole, and the entrance of the cave should be the basement.
The four masters of the Divine Rise Realm descended the stairs with their three children, while the others were left on the ground to take care of them.
When the seven of them arrived in the corridor, they heard a weak and low laugh from inside, and there was a hint of helplessness or disappointment?
The seven of them hurriedly rushed into the room, the lamp on the table was not turned on, only the faint light bead illuminated, and the whole room was dim and unknown. There were yellow rune papers scattered on the ground, as well as paper ashes, rolled into a ball, and with the small wind rolled up by the crowd, the paper ashes instantly shattered and completely turned into dust.
There was a small copper stove on the table, and three burnt incense sticks were inserted in the copper stove, and the smell of burning incense combined with the special gas of paper burning made the whole room permeate the room with a strange smell, choking, but making people want to take a few more breaths.
Su Ling almost saw Li Qi sitting cross-legged on the ground, frowning and closing his eyes, Li Qi was naked, wearing a hat made of unknown herbs on top of his head, and all kinds of unknown herbs were tied around his body, really like a sacrificial pig and sheep.
The elder of the Li family flashed and picked up Li Qi, and after making sure that his breath was still there, he finally let go.
"Sacrifice Heavenly Incense!" Elder Xu muttered in disbelief as he looked at the three incense sticks that had burned out on the table.
Opposite Li Qi sat a child about thirteen or fourteen years old, the child also closed his eyes tightly, but unlike Li Qi, the child's chest did not rise and fall at all, as if he was not breathing.
There was an old man sitting next to the two children, the old man's eyes were cloudy with tears, his mouth let out a strange laugh from time to time, and he muttered in a low voice, "The mandate of heaven cannot be violated, hahaha, what a destiny cannot be violated!"
Su Ling was stunned by this scene, and after the ancestor of the Li family fed Li Qi a pill to stabilize his injuries, he couldn't help frowning when he looked at the messy ground.
Zhu Chengzhi stepped forward and wiped the lamp, and was about to turn on the lamp.
"Don't, don't open it," the old man suddenly turned his head to Zhu Chengzhi and said, "I'm afraid of light." ”
"Who are you?" Bai Ziyang couldn't help but ask.
"Hahaha, who am I? I'm a waste of Yicai talent, even if I have been cultivating hard for seventy years, I still can't break the spell that God has given me, sometimes I really hate, why am I born with the weakest Yicai talent, even if God gives me five colors, no, four colors, I can be like the Holy Buddha back then, shatter the void, and transcend this world!" the old man looked crazy and said longingly.
"Alright, come back with us, and talk slowly in court. Bai Ziyang said.
"Hehe, what do you know, child," the old man took out a small stone from his arms, looked at the flashing colorful colors on it, and his tone was full of jealousy, "You were born with a colorful talent, you will never know the pain of a colorful talent, that is, you have worked very hard, and your achievements are still only like this." ”
As the old man spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhu Chengzhi, "Those who don't work hard without you, just because they are better than you, can step on your head, and you can only survive under their oppression for the rest of your life!"
Zhu Chengzhi obviously didn't expect the old man to suddenly say this, and threatened angrily, "Old thing, if you don't talk well, Lao Tzu will kill you!"
"Hehe, I'm dying anyway, I'm still afraid that you won't make it?" The corners of the old man's mouth rose contemptuously, and he turned to look at the young man who was sitting on the ground without breathing, and there was indescribable love in his eyes, "Xiao Chao is a good boy, when I saw him in that poor village, it was like seeing me at the beginning, the one with a lot of talent, but I was still struggling!"
"The hardships I have experienced, I don't want to repeat them in him, if the talent is determined by heaven, then I will go against the sky!" The old man looked at the beads of light with his eyes, "I have been hiding in the dark all my life, practicing silently, thinking that one day I will turn into a dragon and soar into the clouds, all these years of suffering I have suffered, I originally thought that there would be results, God would give me a reward, but I didn't expect it, thief God!" When I was in the seventh dragon level, the spiritual power in my body could no longer grow upward, and if I forcibly increased the spiritual power, I would only explode and die, you will never know that kind of despair. ”
"So you're engaging in this kind of crooked way?" Bai Ziyang frowned.
"Crooked ways?haha, crooked ways!" the old man laughed, "What is right and what is wrong, if I succeed today, Xiao Chao is talented, and one day I will be above this world, at that time, do you dare to say that I am a crooked way?!"
"Okay, the people outside are still waiting for us, old man, if you have something to say, go out and talk slowly. Su Ling said.
"I'm dying! I've exhausted my life force for the grafting of talent, and I only have one request in the end," the old man looked at the young man lovingly, "Xiao Chao is innocent, he is just a child, you help me find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and bury him well." ”
"You're beautiful!" said the city lord, apparently making his face gloomy, and he wanted to tear the old man alive at this time.
"You don't have the heart to tolerate people, and that's all you can achieve in your life," the old man looked at the city lord and smiled contemptuously.
"You!" The city lord of Meicheng was furious, and he stretched out his hand to slap the old man to death, but was stopped by Elder Xu.
"Okay, I promise you, but you have to answer me three questions," Elder Xu began.
"As long as I can bury Xiao Chao well, I will agree to as many questions as I want," the old man looked at the young man again.
"First, how did you get here?" said Elder Xu.
"He's only a six-fold star, is it difficult for me to catch him?" the old man said with a smile, not caring about it.
"If you want that child's corpse not to be fed to the dogs, you'd better tell me the truth!" Elder Xu was obviously impatient.
"I went out by chance that day, and wanted to buy some snacks for Xiao Chao, after all, he is still young, and it is not a way to lock it up every day," the old man did not raise his head, "Who knew that I just met a genius with a nine-colored talent!" I pretended to pass by him, bumped him lightly, and then apologized to him, and casually stuffed the stun elixir into his mouth when I spoke. ”
"Who knew that when this child realized that something was wrong, I couldn't move as soon as I raised my hand, and I was shocked in my heart at that time, but fortunately, the effect of the dizzy elixir was fast, but the child was fainted by me in five seconds. Otherwise, the result is really hard to say. ”
"Use the Halo Elixir on such a young child!" Elder Xu said angrily.
"Okay, okay, next question, I'm running out of time. The old man waved his hand, ignoring Elder Xu's anger.
"Okay, where did you get those three incense sticks?"
The old man laughed again when he heard this, "Human greed is really like this, that is what I saw in an ordinary farmer's house in the Western Holy Land before, there are only three in total, don't think about it." ”
Elder Xu's face turned red for a while, "Okay, last question, what about your research results? If this kind of thing is not destroyed, I don't know how many children will be harmed." ”
"Naturally, it's in this plum city...", the old man said as he suddenly lowered his head, and even stopped breathing.
"This," Bai Ziyang sighed, "Send someone to block Meicheng, find it for me, and, Gang Leader Zhu, please hand over the things he handed over to you, if I know what you secretly keep, then don't blame me for being unkind." ”
"Yes, yes," Zhu Chengzhi was actually scared out of sweat by an eleven-year-old child.
