Chapter 270: A Dust Dao Man
This is the first part of the stone carving, it is said that in the early years in this chain of caves, there was a special inscription left by the opera Zhicai. But when the people of Yichen Dao came in, it was already dilapidated, and it is estimated that it was damaged by natural behaviors such as the previous earthquake, or it may be that they felt "insulting" at that time, and finally they were artificially damaged.
In short, the above contents are all seen by this Ming Dynasty Yichen Taoist on those remnant monuments. As for why there is no record of this Tibetan military cave in some documents later, it is estimated that only the real master here, Cao Cao, is the old man himself.
Later, for some reason, this cave disappeared out of thin air all of a sudden, and since then it has become a legend, and no one has really entered it again.
Until one day, when this Yichen Taoist was traveling in Yandang Mountain, he overheard a pair of notorious "male and female demons" hiding nearby. Later, after careful inquiry, it turned out that they were just a pair of xenomorph blood snakes that had cultivated to perfection here.
The pair of blood snakes had been practicing hard for hundreds of years earlier, and then by chance, they accidentally ate the extremely rare poisonous herb - the Blood Demon Flower, and suddenly became a demon with powerful spells. After they metamorphosed into demons, they often took on human form and went around doing evil. They have a ferocious temperament, and they are especially fond of taking young boys and girls by taking them by force, sucking their essence and blood, and practicing their magical skills. On weekdays, it still turns into a blood snake and hides among the mountains of Yandang Mountain.
Because of their high magic skills and their ability to conceal, many decent people who came to subdue them when they heard the news were mostly in vain. Sometimes, they even put their lives on the line in vain and were sucked up by them and died.
When this Yichen Dao man heard this, he was immediately furious, and immediately made up his mind to get rid of their "male and female demons", so that the people in this area could get rid of this great evil.
It didn't take long for this Yichen Daoist to really find their nest in the back mountain of Yandang Mountain. After several battles, the "male and female" duo were seriously injured and finally had to abandon their nest and flee. But the people didn't stop there, and chased them all the way, vowing to get rid of them with their own hands no matter what.
In this way, the Yichen Dao people chased and killed them all the way, chasing them from the Jiangnan Water Town in the southeast to the vast desert in the northwest, and from the vast desert in the northwest to the Changbai Mountain in the northeast. After the two of them fought fiercely in Changbai Mountain, the male and female demons were defeated again, and they had no choice but to flee back to the south. In the end, it was in the Peach Blossom Cave of this Dragon Guarding Ridge that they finally took the initiative to submit to the hands of the Yichen Dao man, and let him do what he did.
But in the end, this dusty man couldn't bear to really kill him. It is also strange to say that after several years of fighting wits and courage along the way, they unconsciously cherished each other. Moreover, since they have surrendered to themselves at this time, they will definitely not make waves and harm the world again. The main thing is that they have almost wiped out their anger over the years.
In the end, after thinking about it for a long time, the Yichen Dao people finally did not take a spicy hand to get rid of them. Instead, he decided to keep them by his side forever, and let them make a vow to follow him for the rest of their lives to practice in the peach blossom cave of this Dragon Guard.
When they first came to this Peach Blossom Cave, they didn't find this hidden chain cave, and of course there was no stone statue of the "Peach Blossom Fairy" at that time. It's just that after a long time, they slowly discovered the secret of the entrance to this chain of caves.
Because the male and female demons are a pair of blood snakes after all, they have a unique sense of the existence of these caves.
After discovering the entrance to the chain cave, the Yichen Dao people followed them into the cave, and after seeing the stone tablet that was left by Xi Zhicai, they knew everything about it.
After a thorough turn, after a lot of effort, the Yichen Dao people finally found another exit below. However, the exit has already been artificially sealed, and outside the exit is the bottom of the reservoir below the cliff.
Not only that, but the dark passage that Xi Zhicai specially built at the bottom of the reservoir earlier was deliberately destroyed at some point. In other words, once the exit of the channel below is accidentally opened, the water in the reservoir will pour in in large quantities, which will be unstoppable and instantly flood the exit channel.
It just so happened that although the male and female demons were strong, they did not dare to touch the water, and the water was their nemesis. In this way, even when the Yichen Daoist was in retreat and practicing for a long time, as long as he sealed the exit above with a prohibition, the male and female demons could only stay honestly in the chain hole below, and would never dare to sneak out.
In this way, they practiced peacefully in this chain of caves. It wasn't until many years later that Yichen Daoren suddenly felt that his limit was approaching, and he was worried about the male and female demons again. After all, they are still demons, and their demonic nature is still there, and they have not been completely cleared yet.
When they were alive, they kept their vows out of awe, and did not dare to make the slightest move. However, after a long time since they were feathered, no one dared to guarantee that they would not go crazy again and re-emerge from the mountain to cause trouble. Of course, at this point, it is no longer realistic for you to let the Yichen Dao people ruthlessly get rid of them. Because, they have been with him honestly for so many years, and he can't do it anymore.
So, he quietly prepared secretly from them, not only arranging the stone statue of the "Peach Blossom Fairy" in the peach blossom cave above. And in this small cave hall below, a second, more powerful prohibition is arranged, as a double insurance.
In addition, he finally used a unique method to introduce a large number of mountain springs into this small cave hall, filling almost the entire cave hall, specifically to restrain the twin demons and prevent him from getting out of trouble. Not only that, but he also went to the exit near the reservoir below, arranged a few powerful prohibitions, and added a insurance.
In this way, even if the twin demons were completely sealed in the huge space under this small cave hall, it would be absolutely impossible for them to get out of trouble with their own skills. Unless a real master arrives here in the future and breaks the forbidden mechanism here, this pair of male and female demons can be released.
Or if they have truly cultivated to the positive fruit, and have the magical powers that truly surpass those of a dusty Dao person, they can also leave naturally at will. It's just that by that time, I'm afraid that their demonic nature will have disappeared completely, and they will no longer do those demonic things no matter where they are. The confinement of the Yichen Dao people to them naturally has no meaning.
At this point, the contents of the stone carving are finished. After everyone listened to Xiao Qingfeng tell all this, they all sighed and sighed with emotion, no one thought that there would be such a past under this small Dragon Guarding Ridge.
What made Xiao Qingfeng and them very regretful was that there was no other situation about that Yichen Dao person, such as who he was, what sect he belonged to, and whether he left any precious manuscripts in the end. As for here now
It doesn't matter if there are any male and female demons, or whether there are any treasures left over from the past.
Because, from the content of these stone carvings, they have already seen that this Yichen Dao person is by no means an ordinary cultivator, but should be a real master with a great background.
At this time, the little Taoist priest seemed to suddenly remember something, frowned and said, "Master Hou, why is the original water in this cave hall gone?"
As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly remembered that according to the self-description of the Yichen Daoist, the large amount of spring water he had specially stored here with a powerful prohibition would definitely leave a certain residue even after hundreds of years, and it was absolutely impossible for there to be no traces.
Xiao Qingfeng pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Since this is the case, there should be only one possibility, that is, after that Yichen Dao person, there are people who have been here in a short period of time. Moreover, this person also successfully broke all the prohibitions of the Yichen Dao people and successfully entered the main body of this chain hole. Moreover, he also restored everything after that, preserving the original appearance left by the people of Yichen Dao. ”
Jing Xin said: "In this way, the so-called male and female demons have probably been released by him a long time ago." ”
Xiao Qingfeng said: "According to conventional reasoning, this should be the most reasonable explanation, but we still can't take it lightly. Because maybe it is this pair of male and female demons who have been with each other all the year round, and it is very possible that they will understand his forbidden arrangements in advance and find a way to get out of the predicament. To be honest, since Xiao Maitreya was injured and entered the Peach Blossom Cave today, I have always had an inexplicable feeling like the Heavenly Remnant, and I always feel that something strange is going to happen. Therefore, in the next step, we must still be vigilant, step by step, and we must not relax in the slightest. ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, frowned and continued: "I suddenly remembered again just now, the two rare blood snakes that Ah Turtle encountered in the valley behind, I don't know if they have any inevitable connection with this pair of male and female demons, or they are directly the offspring left behind by them. ”
Jing Xin said: "Actually, I also thought of this just now, but when I think about it carefully, it seems that something is wrong. Because according to what the predecessor of the Yichen Dao man said, the male and female duo have high magical power, and their offspring should also be very powerful, but the two blood snakes encountered by the turtle are very vulnerable, which is a bit unreasonable. Perhaps, it's just a coincidence, and they don't necessarily have anything to do with the male and female demons. ”
The little Taoist priest said: "Maybe there is still this possibility, that is, the pair of male and female demons have been under the guidance and edification of the Yichen Dao people all the year round, and later they were able to participate in the enlightenment of the Great Dao and achieve positive results, which is really possible." If they really attain positive results, then what they left behind will naturally return to their normal state and no longer possess demonic nature. ”
Mengshan Turtle said: "Okay, okay, it's useless for me to see that our brothers are talking more here, it's just a waste of words, it's better to go ahead and see the move." When he said this, everyone agreed, and unanimously decided to move forward according to the earlier plan.
Xiao Qingfeng first readjusted the personnel: let the mute and the doll return to the peach blossom cave above to replace the lone wolf, and still serve as the security guard above, and at the same time ordered the Mengshan turtle brothers to stay in this small cave hall for the time being, and be responsible for the safety of the retreat passage with the lone wolf, while he, the prodigal son, and Jingxin continued to push forward, going deep into the main body of the chain cave, to see what was going on inside.
