Chapter 8: Saints and Divine Soldiers
By the moonlight cast from the top of the stone shed, an old man and a young man squatted on the location where Dongfang Yi was found, dragging a chicken leg, eating hot dumplings, drinking the wine from Yuzhu Peak, talking about the past, so uncomfortable.
This is not Dongfang Yi's first New Year outside, but in those years, no one can be so fucked up like in front of him, I thought that this old bastard was kind enough to bring him something to eat, but he didn't pay attention, most of the dumplings went into the old guy's stomach, if he wasn't alert and hugged the roast chicken to his side in advance, I'm afraid he wouldn't have anything left in the end!
In the face of Dongfang Yi's food protection behavior, Liu Mang was very dissatisfied! Carefully ate a little food, planning to stay by himself, when the second half of the night supper, he ended up walking to the dry mound trailhead, afraid that this kid would be too lonely on Chinese New Year's Eve to bring over to enjoy together! Isn't it just that he ate a few more dumplings? As for bringing most of the roast chicken to him?
So without waiting to eat and drink, the two of them fought again, one said that the other party was disrespectful to the old, the other said that the other party did not know how to respect the old and love the young, and also turned over the old accounts while talking, Dongfang Yi accused Liu Mang of stealing his small stove in the dining room back then, Liu Mang pointed out that the other party gave him a celebration wine mixed with water, in short, no one read each other's good.
The farce lasted for a while, and the two of them also felt a little tired, and they leaned against the mountain wall on the side, staring at the inside of the dark dry mound, looking a little melancholy and not knowing what to think.
Especially Dongfang Yi, after the baptism of death in the dry mound, although his physical fitness has improved a lot now, he will be in great pain in the second half of the night, like thousands of ants biting the internal organs, seeing that the time for the attack is coming again, Dongfang Yi stretched out a greasy finger, pointed behind Liu Mang and said, "Now, help me hand over the quilt, I don't want to roll on this stone for a while." ”
As if with the words, as soon as Dongfang Yi finished speaking, the dead qi in his body immediately attacked, scurrying in the meridians, because of the relationship between the nine dead powers, Dongfang Yi's eight veins were blocked, and these dead qi could not find the opening to be released all turned back to the dantian, and the back and forth dead qi suddenly made Dongfang Yi's tortured cold sweat flow, and he roared constantly.
Seeing that Dongfang Yi suddenly appeared abnormal, Liu Mang frowned slightly, and hurriedly pressed the other party with one hand, and a trace of discoloration flashed in his eyes when the other hand was on Dongfang Yi's pulse, it stands to reason that the death qi in Dongfang Yi's body will definitely not be so violent, and looking at the way he has to prepare, it seems that it will be like this every night, Dongfang Yi has already taken this as a common thing.
"What the hell is going on with the stinky boy? What are you doing in this dry grave? Isn't it just for you to be dead? How can you still be so virtuous!"
At this time, Dongfang Yi was already so painful that he didn't even have a thought, how could he answer Liu Mang's words. Seeing this, Liu Mang didn't care if he would be jealous of this kid, according to his neck, there was a hand knife.
didn't think about this plan to cut down with a knife, Dongfang Yi did not faint, but shouted comfortably. Finding this, Liu Mang's eyes lit up, and then the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, his hands clenched his fists, and he smiled at Dongfang Yi, who looked like crazy.
After a long time, Dongfang Yi, who was covered in scars, held the futon with both hands and stared at Liu Mang. I saw Liu Mang sitting on the stone steps refreshed, and there was a burst of laughter in his mouth from time to time. If Dongfang Yi weren't naked now, he would definitely have to fight hard with Liu Mang, an old bastard.
Glancing at Dongfang Yi angrily, Liu Mang sneered and said, "Okay, who will show you the appearance of pear blossoms with rain, if you let the disciples in the sect hear it, you still think I have done something to you!"
"Shameless old thief stinky hooligan, I'm going to let the Yuxu faction see, what kind of goods they have come up with! It's just a scoundrel on weekdays, and now you're beating up injured people and taking off people's clothes, do you still have a lower limit?"
"Fart, don't beat you, you kid can slow down so quickly today? You don't know what's going on with you? Just let you recuperate! Did you move something in the mound that shouldn't be moved?"
Dongfang Yi saw that Liu Mang's appearance did not seem to be a fake, so he snatched the clothes and passed them to his body, and turned his back to Liu Mang while putting on his clothes, "I don't know what you said should not be moved, but I encountered a strange thing, there is a ruler in the center of the dead side, I just came in at that time, I didn't understand the situation and wanted to go over there to find something to eat, but I ran into that ruler!"
When he said this, Dongfang Yi seemed to have palpitations, and looked back at Liu Mang and asked meaningfully, "What is your intention in letting me enter this dry grave?" Although the vitality in this mound is in line with the dead qi in my body, if I want to mobilize the dead qi for my use, I will definitely die, how can I have the opportunity to recover as you said!"
Facing Dongfang Yi's questioning, Liu Mang sneered, looked at Dongfang Yi with a smile and said, "Intentions?"
“....”
Seeing that Dongfang Yi was unable to answer, Liu Mangyun said lightly, "Do you know the name of 'Arsenal'?"
Although he was curious about why Liu Mang mentioned this matter, Dongfang Yi still replied truthfully, "Of course I know, it is rumored that there are seven arsenals in the world, one in the Tibetan Snow Mountain, one on Ryukyu Island, two in Mobei, and three in Daliang, each of which hides the martial arts classics of the Jianghu sect, and the Hidden Dragon Village of my Dongfang clan is one of them!"
After a pause, Dongfang Yi still asked the doubts in his heart, "Why are you asking this?"
"There are three arsenals in Daliang, the arsenal of Hidden Dragon Village is not much to say, and the other one is quite mysterious in Tianji Valley, claiming to be the most of the seven arsenals. The rest is this grave!"
"What? The dry mound is one of the arsenals?"
Hearing this news, Dongfang Yi's stunned gaze was dull, this dry mound is one of the seven major arsenals, so doesn't it mean that this place contains all the world's martial arts? Then how could the Jade Void Sect allow itself to let an outsider in? Is there really something that can't be planned? Strange thoughts kept flashing through Dongfang Yi's mind, including when he first came to the Jade Void Sect, all of this seemed to be in a certain game!
Liu Mang found that Dongfang Yi's pupils were constantly shrinking, and he knew that this kid was thinking nonsense again, so he said angrily, "Don't think about it, letting you into the dry mound is a unanimous decision of the whole faction, and it has nothing to do with what your kid thinks." Besides, this arsenal is not forbidden to be open to outsiders, otherwise how could there be martial arts cheats and mountains of weapons from various sects in it?"
Dongfang Yi looked around for a while, and said suspiciously, "Then this...."
"I told you before, this dry mound is divided into life and death, life and death are the place where the elders of my sect sit and bury their bones, and there are the top exercises in my sect, and in the next two years, three outstanding disciples will be selected from the sect to study here. And this dead and withered is the place where outsiders come in to challenge, and they want to observe the exercises left in the grave, naturally they have to pay the same price, and the losers will bury their bones here, and their exercises and weapons will become the storehouse of this dead and withered! The ruler you see is one of them. ”
Thinking of the horror of that ruler, Dongfang Yi frowned and asked, "Isn't the origin of that ruler unusual?"
"It's not just unusual, this ruler claims to measure good and evil, and peep into people's hearts. If you want to find a weapon that can balance that ruler, I'm afraid that eighty years ago, you first formed Emperor Dewu's Moon Worship Sword to compete with it!"
Seeing that Liu Mang's face was full of helplessness, Dongfang Yi continued to ask, "It's just a weapon, it's not so mysterious as you say, right?"
Knowing that Dongfang Yi wouldn't believe it like that, Liu Mang sneered, "You know the Seven Great Masters, then you know what the Four Saints are?"
"It is rumored that they are the four most powerful people in the world, such as the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, the Taoist Immortal, the Supreme Martial Arts, and the Originator of the Literati. ”
Legend has it that because Buddhism does not have a Bodhisattva in charge of punishment, in order to prevent Buddhist disciples from breaking the precepts, the Buddha left this ruler for Buddhist disciples to introspect. ”
"Burning the sound ruler?" Hearing this name, Dongfang Yi's face became even more puzzled, it was just a ring ruler, why was Liu Mang's face so dignified, as if he didn't like this ruler very much. Then he was puzzled and said, "Then how did this Buddhist holy relic come to your Yuxu sect? Aren't you a Taoist sect?"
"Alas..."Hearing this, Liu Mang sighed and explained helplessly, "This matter is a long story, there was an invincible demon Bushan in the world before Jiazi, do you know?"
When I was a child, I heard others say, legend has it that he was the first in the world at that time, he had no opponent in the martial arts, and he was proficient in all eighteen weapons, known as the saint of soldiers!"
"That's right, it's this product, if it weren't for him, this Sanskrit ruler wouldn't have left the Tibetan Snow Mountain, and it wouldn't have ended up in the dry mound!"
Feeling that there would be a very exciting story in this, Dongfang Yi hurriedly found a comfortable place, leaned his back against a stone pillar, and motioned to Liu Mang to tell all the stories to satisfy his gossip heart.
It turned out that Bu Shan killed people in the martial arts because of a demon woman, and dozens of sects were extinct, including several grandmasters at that time, who also fell to him one after another. In order to ask someone to stop Bushan, the famous and decent people asked for the Tibetan top snow mountain, hoping that the Shanming Dharma King of the Guangming Temple would help stop Bushan, and this Shanming Dharma King is indeed a compassionate person, in order to stop the catastrophe of the martial arts, he led a disciple, carrying the burning sound ruler given by the Buddha, and killed the snow mountain.
But who knew that even if the martial arts of the Venerable King Shanming reached the peak of the Buddha's path to the realm of the Bodhisattva, he did not stop Bushan, and finally died in the Lancang River, and this ruler fell into the hands of the disciple who followed the Venerable King down the mountain. Because of the death of His Holiness the Dharma, this disciple did not dare to return to the Tibetan Snow Mountain, so he found a place to live in seclusion, practicing martial arts diligently, and preparing to find Bushan to take revenge, which was the beginning of everything.
Later, Wudang Mountain, the originator of the Daomen, walked out of an amazing and decisive person, and achieved the Dao Saint at the age of a weak crown, which stopped Bu Shan, but this Dao Saint also fell. And the Buddhist disciple who wanted to find Bu Shan for revenge, did not find Bu Shan after leaving the customs, and after learning that it was the Daomen who stopped the other party, he began to challenge the four Taoist factions in order to correct the name of the Shanming Dharma King, Wudang Mountain, Longhu Mountain, Quanzhen Sect and Yuxu Sect.
At that time, the Zhengyi faction of Longhu Mountain and the Taiyi faction of the Quanzhen faction were fighting for the orthodoxy of the Daomen after Wudang Mountain, how could they have the heart to deal with this person. And because of a big battle with Bushan, Wudang Mountain was greatly injured, and there was no possibility of facing it. So this guy finally found the Jade Void Sect. As for the result, it can be imagined that the two people who came down from the snow-capped mountain all fell.
After satisfying Dongfang Yi's gossip heart, Liu Mang said bitterly, "Otherwise, do you think we want it to be here?"
"Why?"
"Because of the Buddhist disciple who insists on revenge, this ruler has been tainted with vulgarity, and the power is amazing, unless it is the Buddha who has come to the world or is a martial arts master who has both good and evil qi, he can hold this ruler!"
"What a....."
