Chapter 412: Demon Heavenly Guide
As the sun sets, the figure is drawn in the mottled old alley!
When the Taoist stood in front of the door of Baolike again, the little guy who was still on the rocking chair before was already busy with his feet not touching the ground, scrubbing, mixing noodles, starting a fire, and steaming......
Whether it is the little guy around the white fence and the white scarf, or the old shopkeeper who is lying on the bamboo chair and swaying at the moment, there is no change in the slightest. A hundred years have passed, and the passage of time does not seem to have left a trace on the two of them.
In front of the counter, the bitter old guy in the mouth of the little guy saw Kong Laosan coming, and he got up from the rocking chair with a grunt, and was about to say something, when he suddenly sniffed his nose, and the originally happy old face suddenly sank a lot, just when Kong Laosan was overwhelmed by the other party's attitude, the old man snorted coldly, "Have you been to the old ghost?!"
Although it was a question, it was a tone of extreme affirmation.
"Old ghost, you mean Gu Fangzhai? Hehe, just came out of there!"
Hearing what the other party said, Kong Laodao was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted and nodded, but there was a touch of doubt on his face, "How did Mr. know that Kong had been to Gu Fangzhai?"
"Hmph, the smell of those old ghosts can't be faked, and I can smell them turning to ashes. Come with me!"
The old man said, he had already taken the first step towards the inside, seeing this, although Kong Laosan was still a little puzzled, but he didn't say anything, and left without saying a word.
"Say, if there's anything you want to ask, just ask!"
As soon as he sat down, the old man had already taken the lead in speaking, and there seemed to be some other flavors in his voice.
"Oh, don't you negotiate the price first?"
Kong Laosan was slightly stunned, and said in some surprise.
"Hehe, take it! This "Demon Heavenly Guide" is a token of my bag guest, no matter what your doubts you have in the future, as long as my bag guest knows, you can tell me for free!"
The old man said, and at some point there was an extra yellow Xiaoling in his hand, half the size of a palm, like a scroll that had been unfolded, and the black sky and purple sun inside it were hazy and invisible. With a slight throw, it fell into Kong Laosan's arms.
After rubbing the small order in his hand twice, the Taoist's face was as usual, but in the depths of his pupils, there was a trace of doubt hidden, and after half a cup of tea, he sighed lightly, "I hope the old gentleman can tell the truth, why do you take such care of you?"
The Taoist said, staring straight into the other party's eyes, looking like he would not give up until he got an answer.
"Take care of it, hehe, you're wrong, if you don't have a choice, how can the old man look down on you like such a Jindan boy. ”
The old man shook his head, and then laughed at himself, "Since the Demon Tribulation thirty thousand years ago, we demon spirits who have been abandoned in the human world have been abandoned existences. If there is no one to help, it is impossible to return to the Demon Realm alone, and the only reason why you are chosen is only because you are one of the few people who know about our existence. ”
"Oh, so that's what happened!"
Kong Laosan thought for a while, and his face showed a sudden look, but when his eyes flickered, he said lightly, "So, in addition to Kong, some other beings who know your existence have also been gifted to the "Demon Heavenly Guide"?"
"This is natural, as long as it can take us back to the Demon Realm, it is only natural that we should pay some reward. If there's anything you want to ask, just ask!"
Seeing the old man's frank appearance, the last trace of doubt in Kong Laosan's heart slowly dissipated.
"Hehe, so, thank you for being generous. Kong came here mainly to find some clues. I wonder where I can find the "Phantom Golden Essence"?"
The Taoist was not polite, and said directly.
"Phantom Golden Essence?"
The old man seemed to be very surprised, and after hearing this name, he was slightly stunned, and looked Kong Laosan up and down, not surprised, "If you don't mention this name, the old man has almost forgotten, this piece of heaven and earth was once coveted by the Buddha, and even Mount Meru has been cast." Hehe, it's a pity that the old man came a little late, if he can witness the original battle, it will be worth the trip......"
The old man looked yearning, and then shook his head, "It's easy to talk about other heaven and earth spiritual materials, but the "Phantom Yuan Golden Marrow", except for some that can be found at the bottom of Sumeru Mountain and the Jinshan Yuan Core at the beginning, it is impossible to do it in other places. ”
"Mount Meru, the rumored Mount Meru that was cast by the Buddha in the center of the ocean?"
Hearing this name, Kong Laosan was slightly stunned, and said in surprise.
"Oh? It seems that you have heard some secrets, not bad, but long ago in the wilderness, the Sumeru Sacred Mountain has already collapsed, and it is impossible to find its ruins with your current strength. Unless you can cultivate to the pinnacle of this realm, spend a lot of energy to cross the vast and endless ocean of oblivion, and spend a lot of time carefully exploring and searching, then there is a slight possibility......"
Hearing this, Kong Laosan's old face had become extremely serious, and he pursed his lips, and it was not until this moment that the Taoist understood why the original Xingyunzi said, "If you want to refine" the Xuanyuan Dao Body, you can only rely on luck.
But the next moment, the Taoist seemed to think of something again, and his eyes moved slightly, "Since it is unique to Mount Meru, Mr. thinks that there will be the existence of the "Phantom Golden Marrow" in the pagoda that is about to be opened this time?"
"The words of the stupa...... Although it may not be big, but you can give it a try, the nine-story Futu Wisdom Tower, hehe, if the "Phantom Golden Marrow" really exists, it can only be in the last three layers. Although the old man has never been there, he has heard of some of them, and the last three layers are not only a test of strength, but it is not an exaggeration to say that he has died in the middle of it!"
Hearing this, the Taoist nodded, and then sighed lightly, and the original intention of taking this opportunity to inquire about the essence of the five elements also faded, "That's it, thank you Mr. for telling me, if Kong can really go to the last step, he will definitely try his best to help Mr. return to the Demon Realm!"
Kong Laosan said solemnly, and when his voice fell, he heard the old man laugh, "Okay, good, with your guarantee, the old man will rest assured." ”
As he spoke, the glow rolled up, and the whole person disappeared without a trace.
After leaving Bao Like, Kong Laosan turned into a gentle expression and walked aimlessly in the alley, with starry eyebrows and jade faces, blue and purple robes, and a detached and indifferent temperament, as if walking outside the picture scroll, quietly admiring the watercolor world in front of him.
Old alleys, paper lamps and candles, children's laughter, and the chatter of neighbors......
Everything is like pen and ink in the depths of memory, but this kind of self-sufficiency and self-sufficiency in the blandness is like an outsider, no matter how you can't blend in.
Walking through the three alleys, just as the Taoist soul wandered into the darkness, a noise suddenly came from the end of the alley, shattering the originally silent picture scroll.
When he came back to his senses, the Taoist glanced at it from a distance, sighed lightly, and was just about to break through the air and escape, when something suddenly appeared, his eyes moved, a look of surprise flashed on his face, and he unconsciously walked slowly towards the quarrel.
"Ten low-grade blue water talismans, one medium-grade spirit talisman, a total of one hundred and forty spirit stones, exchanged for a total of 1,400 "horn coins", the price that was said at the beginning, not a single cent less, quickly give it to my aunt!"
In front of her was the appearance of a middle-aged woman, and there were many wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, but her skin was white and beautiful, but the traces of time were slightly suppressed. Behind the women, an old man and a middle-aged man followed behind the woman with some trepidation, their faces revealing deep fear.
"Huh...... The master won't talk nonsense with you, a total of one hundred spirit stones, whether they are sold or not. ”
Opposite the three of them, a blue-robed little ruffian said angrily, waved his hand, and there was an obvious look of disdain on his face, "A foundation builder, you have to find a secular mortal, now people are dying and old, even your son has white eyebrows, you are a good girl's family, you are not ashamed, I am still ashamed, if you don't sell it, get out of here, don't delay the business of our small shop here!"
As the little guy spoke, his aura suddenly pulled out, and the aura of the same foundation builder was unreservedly revealed.
Aware of this scene, the originally angry woman's expression froze, and her eyes showed a little struggle, and finally picked up the bag on the ground, and the two of them squeezed into the crowd and disappeared without a trace.
As the woman left, the crowd dispersed. In the crowd, a young man with a jade face walked towards the little girl, and said with a smile, "I just heard that the woman doesn't seem to be a local person, if the little brother knows something, please tell me directly!"
The young man said, throwing out a few spirit stones......
Two hours later, a blue light broke through the void and galloped away in the direction of the Three Treasures Sea Tower. In the light, there was no joy or sorrow on the face of the Taoist, but in the depths of his pupils, there was a very complicated look.
