Chapter 43: The Eve of Departure
In the middle of the day, it is sunny, and when the moon is full, it is eclipsed.
The former carefree was too strong, so strong that no one could look directly at its edge. And behind this strength, arrogance, arrogance, no one in sight, self-destruction.
Jiang Li followed Xiaoyaozi with an empty head, all the way to a stone wall in the back mountain.
Xiaoyaozi made a move, and the stone wall rippled.
Jiang Li was a little surprised, there was still a space here. As soon as he stepped in, he saw a straight staircase, plunged into the darkness, leading nowhere.
"Old man, here?" Jiang Li was a little puzzled.
"Something that those people want. Xiaoyaozi said.
Jiang Li followed Xiaoyaozi all the way, climbing up the steps until he reached the top.
In the center is a stone platform on which a scroll floats, but nothing else.
"What is this?" Jiang Li looked up and down.
"River Tuluo book. With a wave of Xiaoyaozi's sleeve, a piece of starlight appeared on the scroll.
Jiang Li looked at him in shock.
As the picture scroll spreads out, Jiang Li saw that the mountains and rivers are stretching, the rivers are turbulent and surging, and countless stars in the sky and rivers are dying and reborn.
According to legend, the book of Hetu Luo contains the profound principles of the universe and astrology, through the past and the present, to know the future. Xiaoyaozi's eyes were dyed with starlight: "This is also the root of Xiaoyao's dominance over the top of the continent back then, and it is also the root cause of the disaster of annihilation." After so many years, those people haven't given up, but they can't find it. β
"Who are those people?" Jiang Li asked.
"I don't know. Xiaoyaozi shook his head and smiled bitterly in his heart.
After all these years, they don't even know who the enemy is. And when he said this, he said with fear: "The master of a sect, a scoundrel in the market, a pawn of a peddler, a disciple of the sect, a loose cultivator, and a businessman, may be their people." β
"So mysterious?" Jiang Li was shocked and said, "There are no signs, such as this kind of cloud pattern of Xiaoyao." β
Xiaoyaozi thought for a while, stretched out his hand and drew a symbol: "On the back of their necks, there is such a symbol engraved. β
"S?" Jiang Limeng.
"Ace, do you recognize?" Xiaoyaozi was stunned, and then looked at Jiang Li with suspicion.
"Huh?" Jiang Li looked at Xiaoyaozi, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Don't do it, I'll say it casually, I don't believe you." β
Jiang Li began to undress as he spoke, but was patted by Xiaoyaozi and said, "I've seen it." β
"Huh?" Jiang Li opened his mouth, hugged himself for a long time and said, "Old man, what have you done to me?"
"What, I saw you when you were seriously injured, and besides, you're still in a medicated bath. Xiaoyaozi rolled his eyes and said, "How could the old man pass on the position of sect master to an enemy?"
"But this thing is very good-looking, what's the use?" Jiang Lizuo looked and looked, but he didn't see anything special.
Xiaoyaozi's words were stuck in his throat just as he was about to speak, and he couldn't swallow them.
"Smack. β
"Old man, why are you beating me?" Jiang Li rubbed his head and said dissatisfied.
"What do you know? know the past and the present, know the future, do you know what this means?"
"Isn't it just fortune telling? don't you count it too?" Jiang Li was speechless.
"Can this be the same? The general trend of the world is under control, and it contains the power of mountains, seas and stars, what do you know?" said Xiaoyaozi with a look of ignorance of the goods.
"I understand, I understand. Isn't that in your hands? You use it, what are you afraid of?" Jiang Li was really speechless.
"I ......" Xiaoyaozi held back his face flushed.
"Old man, how many treasures are there in this world? Have you calculated? Since you know that you can't protect it, and you can't use it, it's good to send it out, and keep it as a target to find death?" Jiang Li didn't understand.
"Naive. Xiaoyaozi said angrily: "Do you know that if you are given the consequences by someone with a heart, the world will be chaotic, Xiao Wu, Xiaoyao's life is now in your hands." β
Jiang Li bowed his head and was silent, a little disappreciative in his heart.
Is he naΓ―ve? Who in this world does not say that he is a good person? Who does not think that what he is doing is right, and who is not bent on doing what others think is wrong? Who is not bent on doing what others think is wrong? It is just that there are different positions, different ideas, and different means, and who is more noble than the other?
However, Jiang Li still agreed, no matter what happened, there was a bottom line, and there was a scale between good and evil. It's not that you don't care, you don't fight, you can protect yourself. There are no eggs under the nest, as the old man said, the river Tuluo book, through the past and the present, know the future. It is the blessing of the world. The evil lord wins, and the world is in chaos.
He agrees.
Besides, no one is really clean, and there are no two hostile people in anyone's house, and this thing has to be sent, but there is still a question about who to give it to. It's like, he just put a message of the Baolian lantern out, and Tianyin Valley has already closed the valley. This hostile camp must not be suppressed to death, and it would be good if the same camp did not stab him in the back. Thinking of this, Jiang Li couldn't help but feel a little weak, and secretly prayed that these people could be more reasonable. Otherwise, the world will be in chaos.
Jiang Li understands all this, but ...... What's the matter with him?
"There's a tall man on top of it when the sky falls, why should I care about this mess. Jiang Li roared.
But where is there still a figure of Xiaoyaozi.
Hetu Luoshu was still floating in the air, and Jiang Li glared at it angrily, but at this glance, he was stunned on the spot.
There is starlight in the eyes, with a deep confusion, and the light and shadow are intertwined, as if a century has passed.
Jiang Li stood up abruptly and ran out in a panic.
Go straight back to your room and shut yourself in it for a day without going out. Until Lian Qing hummed a song, he grabbed him out and threw it into the barrel, but this time Jiang Li didn't shout a word of pain.
Lian Qing wondered, could it be that the medicine that Senior Sister prepared this time was very good? I didn't figure it out after turning around the barrel a few times.
It wasn't until the third day that Jiang Li was called to the main hall by Xiaoyaozi.
In addition to the four senior brothers and sisters, there were also four people standing in the main hall. Two men and two women, who looked about the same age as him, wore black power suits and were also embroidered with moire. Four pairs of eyes looked at him in unison, some curious, some disdainful, some scrutinized, and some calm.
Jiang Li was uncomfortable when he was watched, and he rubbed over when he found Shu Huai's position.
However, what made him even more puzzled was that the four people who were originally in different moods suddenly looked at him with a look of admiration, which made him even more inexplicable.
"Coming?" said Xiaoyaozi as he sat on the side.
"Well, what's the matter?" Jiang Li leaned closer to Shu Huai.
"A month later, the Spirit Void Secret Realm. Xiaoyaozi said: "You go to Zhongzhou with them." β
"They?" Jiang Li pointed to the four people who had been looking at him since they entered the door.
"Shadow show, shadow night, shadow Yiyi, shadow Zhao. Seen the suzerain. The four saluted.
Jiang Li said speechlessly: "Don't, don't, don't call me sect master, I'm afraid." β
Jiang Li didn't want to admit that he was such a broken sect master, and he had a lot of bad things.
"Little Five. Shu Huai looked at Jiang Li and said: "The Spirit Void Secret Realm will be opened for five years, and the genius disciples of the entire Western Wilderness and your generation will go, you have to remember, you must not be impulsive." The six of you should support each other even more. β
"Who are they?" Jiang Li had a guess in his heart, but he was not sure yet.
"They're the people of the shadows. Shu Huai explained.
"Darkness?" Jiang Li said suddenly, "People from the village?"
"Yes. Shu Huai nodded and said, "In the future, they will be your people." β
"My people?" Jiang Li said with a toothache: "No, I can do it myself." β
"No, the four of them will take over the duties of the gatekeeper. An Sheng took over.
Jiang Li looked at the four people in front of him curiously, and could see their rejection of him. He understood, after all, it was normal to be unhappy with him, a sect master who wanted nothing.
However, Jiang Li didn't care, and said with a smile that he thought was amiable: "Jiang Li, give me a lot of advice." β
Then reach out and forcibly shake hands one by one.
After thinking about it, one of them gave another medium-grade spirit stone and said, "Do a good job, follow me, I won't let you suffer." β
They were stunned and passively accepted, and their hearts were indescribably weird.
"Alright, let's all disperse. Just when a few people were at a loss, Xiaoyaozi spoke: "Set off in three days, and go back to prepare well." β
Jiang Li was about to run out after hearing this, but was stopped by Xiaoyaozi's next words and said, "Little Wu, you stay." β
β......β
followed Xiaoyaozi to the apse, Jiang Li was furious in his heart to be honest, he was afraid that the old man of the pit man would say something to him again, and then a bunch of bad things were pushed on him.
The master of a sect is still a suzerain who became the suzerain during the foundation building period, if he says this, he will have a lot of face, but he is afraid. Is the boss so easy to be? Obviously, no.
"Old man, can you say anything at once? Jiang Li said with a sad face.
Xiaoyaozi looked at Jiang Li's appearance, and was amused, walked to the bookshelf on the side, took a book from it and handed it over: "This is the travel experience of the sect masters of Xiaoyao, there are shadows of those people in it, you can take it back and take a good look." β
Jiang Li carefully took the book that seemed to be read from time to time and looked a little tattered, checked it with his hand, and then stuffed it into the storage ring.
"Okay, go back and prepare well, this time the genius disciples of the entire Western Wilderness will appear, you can also see the gap between you. Xiaoyaozi explained.
"Will there be those people in here?" Jiang Li was more concerned about this matter.
"I can't say exactly. Xiaoyaozi said.
Back at the place where he lived, Jiang Li sat in the courtyard and sorted out the things in the storage ring. The spirit stone or something was useless in the secret realm, and was directly swept aside by him.
In the case of pills, there is not a single low-grade pill, so you have to prepare. There are a lot of talismans, and there are hundreds of them after counting, but they are all low-level, so you can ask Lian Qing for a few high-level talismans to save your life.
I have to say that Lian Qing's attainments in Fu Dao are not low at all, and he will follow him to learn Fu after his homework is done.
If you don't need a spiritual weapon, everything on him is high-end goods, don't worry, only the formation.
Jiang Li's current formation attainment is still at the first order, let alone a fifth-order demon beast, just a third-order demon beast, he can't be trapped.
After finishing up the same, Jiang Li went straight to Shu Huai, and asked her for a lot of medicinal powders and medicines. Although this thing is not as effective as the elixir, it can be used in an emergency. Especially the medicine powder, all kinds of yin people have been made by him.
After that, Jiang Li ran to Lian Qing to ask for a high-level talisman after a smoke, but he was directly dismissed. What is the secret realm that can't bring anything beyond one's own cultivation, except for the natal magic weapon.
Jiang Li was depressed, but there was no way, if he lacked anything, he would wait to go into the city and buy it, for five years, this was indispensable to prepare.
In the end, it was to eat, Jiang Li pestered Shu Huai to steam two full storage bags of buns for him, as well as a lot of small pastries and roast chicken.
But just the day before departure, Jiang Li was dragged away by Zhanfeng and practiced for a whole day, saying that he was sharpening his guns in battle.
Until the next day, when Jiang Li woke up, he was already on his way to Canglan City.
