Chapter 4: Ecstasy
It was getting late, and the Great Elder who had returned to the sect simply greeted the sect master and then took Han Tu back to his room.
This room is more than 100 square meters, and it is the second most luxurious room in the fireworks door after the door owner, and even the seats are made of rare ebony wood.
The Great Elder pulled Han Tu to sit down beside him and said to him gently, "Speaking of which, I don't know your name yet. ”
"My name is Han Tu. The honest Han Tu replied truthfully.
"Han Tu, hehe, your name is also related to me. Would you like to be my personal disciple?"
This great elder is just paving the way for his own future, after all, after taking the relinquishment, he will live as Han Tu, of course, he will seek some benefits for himself.
How could Han Tu have thought of this, he saw in the carriage that the disciple guarding the door was so respectful to the Great Elder, and he knew that this Great Elder must be a person of high moral character, and it was too late for him to be happy if such an old senior wanted to accept him as an apprentice!
The old man smiled and said, "You are also interested, I thought I would teach you some master and apprentice etiquette for the time being, but now it seems that I have saved time." ”
"Thank you for the compliment. ”
"Okay, then you can stay with me for the time being, and tomorrow I will announce to the public that you have become my personal disciple. ”
"Yes. After worshipping the teacher, Han Tu looked around.
"Okay, don't be blind, let's rest early. ”
After the Great Elder instructed Han Tu a few more words, he walked out of the door, his originally dim eyes suddenly became bright, and the light blue aura at the dantian divided into several thin threads attached to his legs, only to see him jump lightly, he jumped in the air, this jump was three zhang high, and disappeared into the night in a few moments, without alarming the disciples in charge of the secret whistle in the sect.
The fireworks gate is located on the mountainside of a large mountain, and the mountainside is extremely steep, and ordinary people can't go up at all, but this steep mountain rock is like walking on the ground for the great elder.
Soon he came to the outside of a cave buried with rubble, and when he saw the rubble at the entrance of the cave, he shook it for a moment, and since the failure of the seizure, he hid the meditation and the art of seizure here, and more than thirty years have passed.
Drink! The Great Elder snorted lightly, and the aura gradually transferred to his hands, and with his hands inserted into the cracks in the stones, countless gravels were thrown out, and a hole that could accommodate one person in and out was quickly cleared.
This time it's going to be a success!
The Great Elder took a deep breath and walked in, he held the ancient book with the method of seizing the house in his hand, and looked at it again, although thirty years had passed, he still remembered the content of the book because of the benefits brought by the aura, but despite this, he still looked at it over and over again, for fear of missing any details.
Just as he was about to close the book, a jagged horizontal line on the last page caught his attention.
Could it be that the Great Elder gathered his aura in his eyes, and soon his eyes emitted a pale blue light, which stood out in the dim cavern.
This, this, he read out the small lines with a shudder.
"After burning this scroll, you can obtain an ecstasy talisman, sandwich the secondary talisman between your fingers, and use the aura to urge it, which can make the unsuspecting immortal cultivator's soul out of the body, thus greatly increasing the chance of success in seizing the house. Remember, don't try it on mortals, the light will burst the mortal body, and the soul will fly and annihilate at the worst!"
"Ahem!" the Great Elder sighed.
If I had noticed this little print back then, I wouldn't have tried it on mortals. I lost half of my three souls and seven souls!
The Great Elder re-read it a few more times, and after confirming that there were no omissions, he took out the fireworks dagger that he carried with him at his waist, and struck it against the wall, and countless sparks flew out, and these sparks fell on the ancient book, and after a while, they burned.
Bursts of fire refracted his figure against the wall, and for a moment he thought he might be discovered by someone else, and then jumped out first, closing the hole again.
After a long time, the smoke slowly dissipated, and he moved away from the rubble and walked in again, a pale yellow rectangular piece of paper lay in the ashes, presumably this was the ecstasy talisman mentioned in the book, he picked up the spirit talisman and looked at it.
This talisman is pale yellow in color, and seems to be made of commonly used yellow paper, but it is obviously not in terms of its ability to resist fire. There are red lines painted in the center, and from the pattern, it looks like the face of an evil ghost, with cold fangs, and long sharp horns on its head, and the surrounding of the spirit rune is circled with waves like lines, as if to seal the evil ghost inside.
When he clamped the spirit rune with two fingers, the whole person was stunned again, and the lines on the painting were deeply engraved on the spirit rune.
With the naked eye, the spirit rune is originally flat, but when you feel it yourself, you can clearly feel that the lines are sunken.
In an instant, he understood the exact meaning of the small words, as long as he clamped the spirit rune between his two fingers and injected the spiritual energy into the recessed lines, he should be able to activate the spirit rune.
But he didn't try it here, and no one knew if this talisman was a one-time thing, and if it was gone, there would be no place to cry.
He also took out the meditation decision and put it in his arms, tomorrow is the day of the seizure, after the seizure is successful, with Han Tu's body, it will definitely not be able to climb such a steep mountain wall, even with the help of aura, so he plans to take the meditation decision with him today.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, the owner of the Fireworks Gate ordered all the disciples to assemble in the square.
Han Tu was awakened by the sound of the assembly horn, his eyes opened directly, he slept quite comfortably this night, stretched his waist, extremely comfortable, suddenly a chill hit, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be someone around him, so he turned his head to look.
The Great Elder was staring at him with wide eyes, and his heart was furious.
"Master, master, why do you look at me like this, is there something dirty on my face?"
"Huh. The Great Elder smiled kindly, and immediately changed his face, but he really looked like a mentor and a friend, and he smiled: "Okay, let's go out with the teacher." ”
"Uh-huh. Han Tu looked well-behaved, where was the appearance of the child king in the village.
Last night, the Great Elder had slept well, but as the morning approached, he had a nightmare.
He dreamed that after the seizure was successful, the immortal cultivators behind Han Tu came to the door, pulled out his bones with cramps, and nailed him to a wooden stake for three days and three nights, until the flying vultures gnawed at him at all.
Cold sweat ran down his cheeks, and he woke up in shock, staring at Han Tu with wide eyes, this was the scene from before.
After leading Han Tu out of the door, greed finally got the upper hand, and when he thought that he could get a new body and start a new life, he couldn't care about anything. Besides, his limit is approaching, and there is nothing to be afraid of, when the immortal cultivator faction finds it, he will just break himself.
The square was noisy, and most of the noise was caused by children brought back from the surrounding towns and villages, who squeaked and talked non-stop, and were curious about everything they saw, and they had to say ten or eight sentences before they would stop.
The master of the door saw the Great Elder approaching and signaled that it was time to begin.
The hall master said: "Quiet, I invited everyone to come here today just for one thing, so let the door master say a few words." ”
Seeing that the hall master was looking at him, the door master waved his hand and said with a smile: "Today's protagonist is not me. Then he pointed to the Great Elder.
The hall master immediately understood and shouted, "There is a great elder below!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a jagged applause from the audience, in fact, they usually applauded quite evenly, but today a lot of children came, and they saw that the adults applauded and followed the cats and tigers, which led to a noisy situation.
The Great Elder walked up to the stage with a smile, still holding Han Tu's small hand in his hand. He looked at the young man below and sighed with emotion for a while, but fortunately, he would soon be one of them!
He cleared his throat and said, "I think most of the people here know me, and there are some children who have only been in the door for a few years or who have only come here in the past few days and don't know me, so I'll introduce myself." ”
"My name is Zhang Xiaotian, taken from the meaning of longevity and Tianqi, and the old man is indeed enough, one hundred and sixteen years old this year, presumably in the entire history of the Yue country, there are few longer than the old man to live, I have struggled for the fireworks door for nearly 50 years in my life, made great contributions, and contributed to the prosperity of the fireworks door, and now the fireworks door has become the first major faction within a radius of 100 miles, God is kind, and let me find a disciple, my life is worth it!"
There was intermittent applause from the audience, and after the applause was over, the Great Elder continued: "I know very well that my life is short, and the deadline is approaching, so I decided to pass on my life's skills to my disciple Han Tu today, and I also hope that the master of the sect will take care of it, and after ten years, he will definitely become a member of the fireworks gate, and under your leadership, the fireworks gate will reach a peak." ”
When the Great Elder said this, his eyes were bright, and his voice was sonorous and powerful, he really didn't look like a person who was about to reach the limit, but only he knew that he had already run out of oil.
Seeing that the Great Elder was full of emotion, the door master also stood up and said: "If you hadn't nominated me and made me the door master back then, I would have been just an ordinary deacon, it can be said that without you, there would be no me, you can rest assured, I will do my best to cultivate your personal disciple Han Tu, help him grow as soon as possible, and shine my fireworks gate!"
"Hmm. The Great Elder nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing this, they must have already understood that this Ningmen master was the deacon who was promoted by the Great Elder back then, and more than ten years have passed.
Although he said that he would do his best to cultivate Han Tu, his true thoughts were probably known only to him.
