Chapter 258: Ouroboros
Everyone's faces changed, and their eyes looked at Li Zhengdao helplessly and in fear, waiting for his statement, after all, everyone still believed that there were more Taoist heroes who lured the greedy demon out of the town.
Li Zhengdao's face was as solemn as water, his frowning brows were almost dripping, his eyes looked at the dark night in the distance, and his hands slowly clenched into fists.
Leave.
The two words seem to be very light, anyone can open their mouth to say it, but after these two words, it is heavy, and who can really feel it.
Looking at the expectant eyes in the firelight, Li Zhengdao was very entangled in his heart, as long as he gave the order now, the people would leave, but after leaving their hometown, where could they go, where would they settle in the future, and how would they survive.
Li Zhengdao didn't think he was capable of taking care of these people who had left home, so thinking that they might sleep on the streets, starve to death and freeze to death, he felt that his mouth was so heavy that he couldn't lift it.
Sun Xiaoman and Bai Miaozhen watched from the side, their faces were also full of sadness, very helpless, and their eyes looked at Li Zhengdao worriedly.
Ying Wuxin also looked at the people, looked at those expectant eyes, and after a while, he said: "Brother Dao, I have a bold idea, if I succeed, maybe I can eliminate the glutton, and the people here don't have to flee." ”
"Really?"
"It's just an idea of mine, whether it's feasible or not, I don't know, but we lure the greedy demon away, and it's good for the people here to retreat or not, isn't it?"
"How long will it take?" asked Li Zhengdao in a deep voice.
Ying Wuxin asked Li Bing how fast the greedy demon was moving now, and after getting the answer, he replied, "About two hours." ”
"Okay, then we'll do it. ”
After Li Zhengdao finished speaking, he looked up at the people and said loudly: "At the moment, we still have a way, if it is feasible, we can destroy the glutton, even if it can't succeed, we will lead the gluttonous demon far away, so that you will have more time to retreat." ”
"Two hours, two hours later, if you don't hear from us to destroy the Glutton, leave at dawn, and now everyone go home and get ready to go. ”
The crowd panicked and swarmed into the town.
Li Bing stood outside and asked puzzledly, "What else can you do?"
"I don't know. Lee Jeong-do responded.
"Don't know?"
"This method was thought up by Brother Wuxin, and I haven't asked how to do it yet. ”
Li Bing was stunned for a while, "I didn't ask you to believe him so much, you are Zhengyang-"
Li Zhengdao glanced at him and flew towards the town, followed by Sun Xiaoman, Bai Miaozhen and Wang Banxian.
The crowd gathered in the inn again, and there was panic and noise in the packing of things, and the helpless cries of people.
However, the people here are grateful to a few people for luring the greedy demon out of the town, so they know that they may have to leave their homes, and they don't say anything nasty.
"What can I do about Brother Wuxin?" asked Li Zhengdao seriously and eagerly.
The eyes of the other three also looked at them curiously, everyone has eaten the gluttonous demon, and the three Dao sects can't be killed together, what else can they do now?
Ying Wuxin said the results and conjectures of his investigation, and several people were full of shock.
"Isn't it, the stomach of the gluttonous demon is connected to the bottomless pit on the mountain, this is too unbelievable, isn't it?" Wang Banxian said in surprise.
Sun Xiaoman was relatively calm, "The stone demon we met last time used the fish in the stone to deceive people, and this time if there is some evil possession of Master Liu, it is not impossible to connect with the bottomless pit." ”
Bai Miaozhen said: "If you talk like that, that bottomless pit may be the essence of the Glutton, and we may be able to destroy the Gluttony from there." ”
Ying Wuxin said: "It's a pity that the hole is too deep, and it is very narrow, it is easy for people to have accidents when they go in, my listening to the wind technique can't be heard to the end, and Brother Dao's qi magic is estimated to be not good, if we can know the following situation, maybe we will have a better way." ”
Li Zhengdao shook his head and said, "That hole is too dangerous to be explored. ”
"If we don't investigate, we can't know what Liu Lao's obsession is, and if we don't know what his obsession is, we can't let him dissipate voluntarily, so we can only use dangerous methods?"
"What's the danger?"
"Let them devour each other. ”
"Devouring each other?" the other four were all full of surprise, how could this devour.
Ying Wuxin dipped his hand in some tea, drew a circle on the table, and said, "I also thought of the method from this pattern, do you know the Ouroboros?"
"Ouroboros?" Several people were puzzled for a while, and Li Zhengdao spoke: "I have seen this, it is recorded in ancient books that a snake is swallowing its own tail, symbolizing a cycle. ”
Sun Xiaoman and Bai Miaozhen also nodded, only Wang Banxian looked stunned and didn't know anything.
Ying Wuxin nodded and said: "Yes, since the belly of the gluttonous demon is connected to the bottomless pit, that bottomless pit is equivalent to the tail of the snake, and the current gluttonous demon is the head of the snake, let them devour each other, maybe let them destroy themselves." ”
The other four fell silent, each frowning and pondering.
After a while, Li Zhengdao said: "There is indeed such a possibility, but it may cause greater changes." ”
The two women were very worried, and Wang Banxian was even more afraid.
Ying Wuxin smiled and said: "I don't have much to worry about this, firstly, this is made against our forces, if there is a bigger change, with their bold and reckless character, I am afraid that it will already cause trouble in the Jin Kingdom, and secondly, if it is really a great disaster, maybe it is also a good thing, then the Dao Zun of the Jin Kingdom will definitely go out, and he will definitely not sit back and watch this thing continue to become stronger." ”
The other four people's faces changed, and their eyes looked at Ying Wuxin strangely.
Sun Xiaoman snorted and said, "So you are planning to add fuel to the fire." ”
Ying Wuxin shrugged his shoulders and said, "You can indeed think so. ”
"Even I guess there is a worse possibility, they will devour each other, and they will become more powerful than Daozun, then the entire three states of the world are finished, and the forces against us will definitely die with us, and we will not suffer a loss. ”
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and they didn't know how to answer.
Li Zhengdao also hesitated, this matter is too big, if the third situation that Ying Wuxin said appears, now that the dragon god is gone, without the protection of God, the three states in the world will be finished.
Thinking that he might become the culprit of the destruction of the world, Li Zhengdao's hands trembled a little.
"But you don't have to worry so much, I don't think the probability of the third possibility is large, after all, this is someone targeting us, so the gluttonous demon must know his characteristics, if they devour each other, it will become a terrible existence, they will definitely block it, this is not far from Qixia Mountain, if the greedy demon passes, it will become a terrible existence, those guys who are doing things behind it, aren't they too stupid and stupid." Ying Wuxin comforted.
Saying this, several people relaxed a lot.
The next step is to discuss how to lure the greedy demon to Qixia Mountain.
"Now that the gluttonous demon has eaten stones, it is estimated that he will no longer be interested in food, how can we lure it away?" asked Li Zhengdao.
"Since this gluttonous demon is aimed at our people, it may be the Mingguang Sect, or it may be the force behind Gu Sanqing, then if we lure the greedy demon over, won't they want to stop it?" Sun Xiaoman said.
Bai Miaozhen said: "Wuxin junior brother went to Qixia Mountain, and did not encounter accidents and obstacles, I think the person behind him should be absolutely sure, he doesn't think we can kill the glutton, even if we know the existence of the bottomless pit, such a bottomless pit, what can we do with it, since these two are our helpless existences, most of the people behind the troublemakers will sit back and relax their vigilance." ”
The other people thought for a moment and nodded: "Also, except for devouring each other, it seems that these two things are invincible existences, unless Dao Zun comes and uses their ability to attract heaven and earth to destroy these two strange existences, no other way is feasible." ”
So the topic returned to how to attract the greedy devil, Ying Wuxin said the wooden card, said: "I have a guess, maybe there is something in the bottomless pit, love food, it happened to meet with Master Liu, so there was an exchange, and those wooden recipes are obviously the things in the bottomless pit for Master Liu, Master Liu is like a baby, and finally was lured into a glutton, so can we work the dishes to attract the attention of the glutton." ”
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the others all looked at Wang Banxian.
"Look at what I'm doing, my cultivation is so low, if I go to lure the glutton, I will definitely be eaten. Wang Banxian said in fear.
"It's not for you to lead, but for you to find a way to get some good dishes, such as very strange, especially delicious, the gluttony and the bottomless pit have not heard of anything, such a rare and delicious food, as long as you say it, maybe you can lure them away, after all, they are all food-loving guys, most of them are also because of food-related obsessions. "There should be no heart.
"Well, then I can think about it. Wang Banxian said, for food and cooking, he has been tinkering all his life, and he also accepted the mantle of Mr. Xiu, saying that his food skills are the second in the world, and absolutely no one can rank first.
At present, he happened to meet such a glutton, and Wang Banxian could be said to be at the right time.
"Since the Gluttony and the things in the bottomless pit are very fond of food, it is estimated that ordinary food will not be able to impress them, it is better to taste good, especially novel food, they listen to it interestingly, it smells good, anyway, we just use this to attract Glutton, not to let it try it personally. Lee added.
Ying Wuxin gave a thumbs up in admiration, "It's worthy of Brother Dao, it's too shrewd." ”
"Yes, I remembered a delicacy that Mr. Xiu said, called Golden Leaf, this dish is very rare, even Mr. Xiu has only eaten it once, which is already very lucky, and others may not be able to eat it in their lifetime. Wang Banxian said in surprise.
"Gold Leaf?"
"What's that?"
"Why do some people never eat in their lifetime, is it because this food is very expensive?"
Several people asked curiously.
Wang Banxian shook his head and said: "This dish is not expensive, the materials are very cheap, but the difficulty is to depend on the will of God, if the conditions are suitable, you can eat it several times a year, if the conditions are not suitable, it is hopeless to wait for a lifetime, and it is useless to have money, because you can't change the weather." ”
