Chapter 40: The Chosen One Can Sometimes Be an Obstacle

"Blackwater Lake, it seems that after the phoenix-tailed cockscomb snake left, it was not very peaceful there, and the spirit beast eggs were still there, but a piece of ice under the blackwater lake could also make them red-eyed. ”

The old man with yellow teeth walked in front and said slowly, the road under his feet should have been straight, but the old man with yellow teeth took a detour.

"This ghost forest is really not simple. ”

After walking for a while, Xia Yuan realized that the scenery around him was slowly changing.

Another detour, in the quiet ghost forest, there was a crisp cry, it was the song of birds and insects, and there were living creatures in the forest.

"Yun Bufan, Yun Nianyi, I hope you don't wait for me stupidly by the Blackwater Lake. ”

The departure of the phoenix-tailed cockscomb snake made Xia Yuan's heart that had always been hanging a lot of relief, but there was still the existence of Xuan Bing in the Black Water Lake, this person, if he was ruthless, it would be much more terrifying than the spirit beast.

There are too many people, even if Yun Bufan's brother and sister covet Xuan Bing, they must not venture to wade this troubled water, after all, Yun Nianyi's cultivation is still weaker.

The spirit beast egg is in Xia Yuan's hand, and when she sees Yun Nianyi, she will give it to her, this little girl should be very happy. "Senior, I don't know how far the ghost forest is from Heishui Lake? ”

In front of him, the old man with yellow teeth used the pickaxe in his hand to get rid of the half-human-tall weeds while walking, his movements were very gentle, and the old man with yellow teeth was afraid of waking up the child in his arms.

The dirt beneath his feet was a little soft, and occasionally one or two pieces of white bone could be seen scattered.

"The Blackwater Lake is in the east, and the Ghost Forest is in the west, even if you rush to the Blackwater Lake without stopping, it will take at least four or five days. Since they are friends of the little prince, they should be Jiren's own natural appearance. ”

The yellow-toothed old man suddenly straightened up. "Little prince, our meeting is fate, although the ghost forest is in the ancient ruins, it does not belong to the ancient ruins, please don't set foot in the ghost forest again, the old man can help you, only this time. ”

"Senior, are you talking about a general?"

Xia Yuan said in a deep voice, the particularity of the ghost forest is equivalent to a forbidden place, and it may be a big secret if you can enter or exit.

"Yes, the Ghost Forest was originally the general's mansion. At that time, the general's mansion was full of guests and friends, and it was indescribably prosperous, but some things that happened later also made the general's mansion fall into the ancient ruins, forming a natural maze and turning into a ghost forest. ”

The old man with yellow teeth shook his head, his figure at the moment was a little depressed, and he looked down at the child in his arms, who was sleeping very sweetly. "It's rare to meet someone who can speak, don't dislike the old man's broken mouth. ”

"The senior's words are serious, the seniors can teach the younger generations, which is the blessing of the younger generations' three lives. ”

Xia Yuan smiled and arched his hand.

"Born in a royal family, but without that royal pride, this is already more than many of my peers. The world is panicked, but it is just a few taels of broken silver, this person, after having power, has become arrogant and domineering, there are not a few people, and what is commendable is that the heart of doing things is usual. ”

The old man with yellow teeth shook his head. "Teaching? I can't talk about it, the old man just lives a little longer, and he has seen more, just some sighs, just listen to the little prince. ”

"The seniors praised it falsely, and the juniors just encountered some things. ”

Xia Yuan smiled bitterly, who would have thought that two young men who had never known each other were pitiful to each other, but looking at fate, they twisted the two into a rope.

The hemp rope is broken in detail, and the bad luck is looking for the suffering, and who can listen to the suffering compared to the suffering.

"Delicate but not dry, it's not easy, if you are blindly modest, it seems a little cowardly, don't fight for fame and fortune, don't want glory, little prince, what do you say you want?"

The old man with yellow teeth suddenly turned his head and smiled thoughtfully.

"Pointing your sword at the sky, you just need to be able to shout with a clear conscience. ”

Xia Yuan's words were sonorous and powerful, and he had a clear conscience, this was his way, his cultivation method, and the road he had to walk under his feet.

The old man with yellow teeth paused, turned around and asked, "There was a man who said the same thing to you before, guess what happened to him?"

"What's wrong with that person? ”

Xia Yuan said puzzled.

"All the betrayals and relatives, widowhood and loneliness, there is only the remnant of the life of the companion, and when he is gone, there will be one more lonely grave in this world. ”

The old man with yellow teeth looked faint, and sighed in his mouth.

The eyes of the two of them became brighter and brighter, and when the edge of the ghost forest arrived, the old man with yellow teeth stopped his steps. "Little prince, and listen to the old man's advice, the Chosen Choice will sometimes become an existence that hinders you, and the gains and losses are just a thought. ”

"Senior ........."

The yellow-toothed old man waved his hand to cut off the words in Xia Yuan's mouth, "Mountains and rivers meet, little prince, when I see you again, I hope you can let the old man see that you have a clear conscience." ”

The old man with yellow teeth turned around and left, holding Tong Tong in his arms, and went to find the general.

Xia Yuan put down his outstretched hand, swallowed the unspoken words in his mouth, and had a clear conscience, why did he get the betrayal of his relatives in exchange, but Xia Yuan couldn't figure it out.

Walking out of the ghost forest, the air outside is a little hotter.

In front of him, there was a plain, Xia Yuan glanced back at the ghost forest, this was a place that did not belong to the ancient ruins, but a general's mansion, Xia Yuan also glanced at the back of the yellow-toothed old man leaving, he was holding Tong Tong in his arms, and walked very slowly.

"I'm going to Blackwater Lake. ”

Xia Yuan ran the exercises, and ran to the east, the ghost forest was far away from Heishui Lake, and by Heishui Lake, there were people Xia Yuan remembered.

After passing through the plain at his feet, a dead forest appeared in front of Xia Yuan's eyes, and the fallen leaves on the ground were blown by the wind.

It's just that, under a relatively thick dead tree, sat a figure, and his clothes and hair were covered with yellow leaves.

The figure sat like this, like a dead man, without the slightest trace of life.

"Still an old acquaintance. ”

From the side, a little monk walked slowly, Xia Yuan raised his eyes and looked at it, and a smile appeared on his lips.

It was the dustless little monk, I saw the dustless little monk holding the Buddha seal in his hand, he walked to the figure, and there were words in his mouth. After a while, the dustless little monk's body bloomed with golden light, and in a few breaths, all those golden lights poured into the body of the figure sitting under the dead tree.

A thin layer of sweat oozed from the bald head of the dustless little monk, and his mouth and nose were also panting, and after a while, the figure sitting under the dead tree suddenly disappeared and turned into a yellow hair, fluttering in the air.

The dustless little monk stretched out his hand, caught the yellow hair, and held it in his palm. "Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, World-Honored Jizo. ”

After the little monk Wuchen said a word, he also walked towards Xia Yuan lightly.

"Dustless little master, we haven't seen each other for a long time. ”

When it was approaching, Xia Yuan also gave a salute.

"After a few days, I never thought that I would meet the donor here, and I don't know if the donor can gain anything in Heishui Lake?"

The dustless little monk returned the salute.

"The harvest aside, I saw a purgatory scene on the shore of the Blackwater Lake, and the ground was stained with blood red. ”

Xia Yuan had a smile on his lips, and the monk's robe of the dustless little monk in front of him was broken in a few places, and there were also traces of being burned by fire, and he looked a little embarrassed.

The appearance of the little monk made the donor laugh. ”

The appearance of the dustless little monk was very religious, he bowed to Xia Yuan, and said solemnly. "Donor, what I just saw, I hope that the donor will not tell others, the little monk is here to thank you in advance. ”

A hint of playfulness flashed at the corner of Xia Yuan's mouth, the dustless little monk was not as simple as it seemed. "Dare to ask the dustless little master, did anything happen just now? It's just that there is an unknown figure sitting under the dead tree, why did it change into a hair?"

The whereabouts of the dustless little monk are very strange, and he guides others to find it, but he himself does not take these opportunities in his eyes.

Xia Yuan's eyes were filled with glow.

"The figure that the donor just saw was not actually a person, but an incarnation of one of the senior masters in my sect. The little monk came here to retrieve the three incarnations of my predecessors, and that's all. ”

Since Xia Yuan saw it, the dustless little monk didn't hide anything.

"Avatar?"

Xia Yuan frowned, it seems to have been recorded in the Xuantian True Solution, there is a person who can transform into thousands of people, and cultivate to the sky, an iron rod in his hand, can be Qingtian, can Zhenhai, and a demon flag behind him is a world.

The memory was a little blurry, Xia Yuan could remember, but he couldn't name it, and it was impossible to read the Xuantian True Solution in front of the dustless little monk.

Xia Yuan only asked tentatively. "Dustless little master, which senior in your sect used an iron rod as a weapon?"

The dustless little monk raised his eyes, looked at Xia Yuan in surprise and said. "How will the donor know about the weapons I taught my predecessors?"

Xia Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile. "I read a record of incarnations in an ancient book, and it is said in the ancient books that throughout the ages, there is only one person who can incarnate thousands of clones!"

"The donor said well, I hope today's events, don't tell others, the little monk still has important things to do, so he will take the first step. ”

After the dustless little monk gave a salute, he bypassed Xia Yuan and walked into the distance, no matter how he looked at it, he looked a little deserted and fled.

"Is this leaving?"

Xia Yuan raised his hand and touched the bridge of his nose, the dustless little monk left, he didn't stop, he walked through the dry woods, and came to a small stream, but the flowing stream was red, and there was a smell of blood in the air.

That's flowing down from upstream.

Xia Yuan cautiously searched for it, and after a while, two corpses lying by the stream appeared in front of him.

Without exception, in the center of the eyebrows of the two corpses, there was a finger-sized blood hole, blood was dripping out, and their eyes were wide and they never closed their eyes.

"These two people just died, could it be that the dustless little monk did it. ”

Xia Yuan frowned and got up, there was still residual warmth on the two corpses, there was no one around, and the only person he had seen was the dustless little monk, if the two of them were really killed by the dustless little monk, this blow would be killed, for that religion, it seemed a little more ruthless.

A day later.

"Bang............ Boom ........."

Suddenly, there was a metallic sound, and there was a big battle ahead.

Xia Yuan threw away the wild fruit he had bitten in his hand, held the rough sword tire in the palm of his hand, he bowed and cautiously groped through.

"Looking at the costumes of these two people, they should be from the same sect, why did they fight here. ”

Next to the two people who were fighting, there were three corpses, all dressed in the same costume.

Xia Yuan's body was half-crouching, hiding behind a stone. "It is a big taboo for the sect to fight, there is no one here, and no one knows if they die, but both of them are mid-stage cultivators, and the one who has the upper hand is still a woman holding a jade flute. ”

Xia Yuan held his breath, he was able to be ruthless to his own people, it was not a good stubble, a man and a woman were in full swing, Xia Yuan was happy to watch a good show.
