Chapter 8: The Scrolls

The cold air in the cave gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a cold and damp atmosphere. Even the intoxicating fragrance of the previous time has gradually faded at this time.

The black lotus stopped turning in the hole, and the petals wrapped in the willow wind slowly unfolded, revealing the figure on the lotus canopy.

It's just that this figure is trembling all over at this time, his eyes are red, and his heart is extremely uncalm. On the left forearm, the line of small characters was blessed by the blue and black light, as if it had come to life, flashing and emitting a strange red light.

After a long time, Liu Zifeng's mood calmed down. New hatreds and old grudges, many cruel, vicious, cold-blooded and ruthless things in the world, but at this moment they are pressing on the shoulders of a little boy, I don't know if it is unfair fate or bad luck.

How can you empathize with such pain if you don't experience it yourself!

He was silent, regardless of the fact that the black lotus had let go of his restraints. Black Lotus didn't treat him like she had done with the strange rat before, and bounced him away at once. After the lotus petals unfolded, they remained silent. The lotus heart comes out of the blue lotus canopy, and no breath comes out, but it is still glowing with a misty blue light, reflecting the lotus leaves exquisitely clearly.

From a distance, Liu Zifeng sat quietly in the center of the lotus platform like an old monk. Surrounded by a blue-black aura, there is a mysterious blue light under his body, which is quite weird.

However, an untimely "squeak" sound came.

But it was the strange rat who didn't know where he was thrown by the lotus petal before, and when he saw the black lotus let go of the restraint on Liu Zifeng and opened it again, he rushed up excitedly, and rushed up to his shoulder with three or two strokes, and a pair of small eyes showed a flattering look.

Liu Zifeng felt his shoulders sink and almost fell down. He glanced at this little thing angrily, if it weren't for this strange mouse, how could he have come to this strange place, wandering between life and death in a thrilling way.

At this time, I saw that the black hair of this strange mouse seemed to have doubled, covering the whole body loosely, and a little gold could be faintly seen in the black light. The body is also a lot heavier, and it is extremely uncomfortable to fall on his shoulders as if he is carrying dozens of pounds of heavy objects.

Under his gaze, the little head of the strange mouse moved, as if he was thinking, and then his body shrank, and he became the appearance of an ordinary mouse before, and his body was much lighter.

Liu Zifeng felt relaxed at this time, moved his shoulders and stretched his waist, and jumped down from the black lotus.

As soon as he came, the black lotus began to rotate again, and under Liu Zifeng's gaze, it gradually shrank into a palm-sized delicate lotus. Then, like a black light, the lotus flower disappeared into his eyebrows and disappeared.

Liu Zifeng only felt a black light flash, and then his forehead was cold, and there was no movement.

His cultivation time is short, but he has also seen some natural treasures in books and ancient scrolls. It's just that most of those treasures of heaven and earth are accompanied by bursts of glow, with an auspicious atmosphere. I haven't heard of something as ghostly and eerie as this black lotus with a black light.

Liu Zifeng's face was ugly, and he reached out and touched his eyebrows, but he didn't feel anything except that he felt a little cold. Inside the body, according to his path at the moment, he can only sense it slightly, obviously he has not yet reached the realm of spying on his own body.

He tried his best, but he didn't find a reason. After a while, his face was ugly and he secretly said in his heart: Is it a blessing or a curse, but a disaster cannot be avoided.

The strange rat also sensed his annoyance, and didn't dare to make a sound, but he had already slipped aside, for fear that Liu Zifeng would take out his anger on it.

At this time, Liu Zifeng also had no choice but to take the black lotus that had not entered his body, so he had to give up. Then, what made him feel strange was that the black lotus had disappeared, but under the black lotus before, there was still a misty white light.

A strange rat was pawing on a high stone wall, looking in, and its body was rushing upward, and it seemed that it was about to climb in.

Liu Zifeng's heart tightened, and secretly said that this little thing is not good without it, but it is good to cause trouble. At that time, he quickly got up and grabbed it.

The strange thing "squeaked", as if angry that Liu Zifeng ruined its good deeds. But then he scratched his head again and pointed forward.

Only then did Liu Zifeng notice that under the original black lotus, there was another quaint stone platform. The center of the stone platform is concave, and there are two night pearls with white light embedded in the inner wall.

Through the white light, you can see two things under the stone platform. One thing is a pot-shaped object with a black-brown body, and the other is a quaint book.

Liu Zifeng looked at the black pot first, this thing looked more like an attic that had shrunk hundreds of times. There are many fine lines carved on the body of the pot, and I don't know how many are dense. The lid of the pot is in the middle of the top, and four strange patterns are also depicted on it. And a spout sticks out of one side to make it look like a teapot.

Liu Zifeng couldn't see what the pattern was, and his eyes turned to look at the quaint book on the side.

Looking at it like this, Liu Zifeng couldn't see it clearly. He simply stretched out his hand and took out the small pot and the scroll.

Throwing the small pot aside, Liu Zifeng looked at the ancient scroll in his hand.

Although this ancient scroll has passed through many days and moons, it is still well preserved, and it is only a thin appearance of about a dozen pages. There was not a single word on the cover, which was very strange.

He opened the unknown scroll, and saw that there were also pages of blank paper in the scroll, and there was nothing.

Liu Zifeng had a strange look on his face, this place was extremely weird, and these things were definitely not mortal. However, I don't know what this wordless scroll means here.

He picked up the mantra of the "Ghost Spirit Sutra", and suddenly his whole body was blue and black. A moment later, the blue and black qi flowed down his arm and slowly poured into the wordless scroll.

In the line of sight, the skin of the scroll seemed to glow. Liu Zifeng's heart moved, and he silently recited the mantra and cast the law. The blue-black light was abundant, pouring into the scrolls like a tidal wave.

It's just that the ancient scroll seems to only make a little movement, and then he doesn't feel the blue and black breath anymore, and he lets the willow wind pant tiredly.

Just as he was about to give up, he suddenly noticed a burning pain in his left arm.

When I turned my head to look, I found that on my arm, lines of blood-colored small characters kept popping up, and there were more than thirty of them, exuding a strange red light. The blue-black light around his body was slowly converging, absorbed by the blood-colored words on his left arm.

Looking at those characters, Liu Zifeng was suddenly startled, and then remembered that these words were the words he carved with blood on the mysterious pillar!

It's just that, whatever method he uses afterwards, those words seem to have disappeared.

Now, the words he didn't recognize seemed to come to life, stimulated by the blue and black aura, ready to move, shining, and his face was glowing a strange red.

The next moment, I saw that more than thirty blood-red runes suddenly shattered, turning into blood again on his arm. Then, the blood slowly flowed down his arm, into the wordless scroll in his hand.

A low howl seemed to come from Liu Zifeng's mind, echoing throughout the cave. The stone walls buzzed and dust and rubble rolled down!

In an instant, the ancient scroll in Liu Zifeng's hand turned red like boiling molten iron, and the hot feeling came along his fingertips, and he grinned in pain. And after the blood was poured into the wordless ancient scroll, I saw a burst of cyan glow on the cover of the ancient scroll, and three big characters appeared on it!

"Earth Ghost Technique!"

These three words are ordinary words, Liu Zifeng endured the horror in his heart, recognized it at a glance, and said silently in his mouth.

At this moment, the ancient scroll that had turned red flew out of Liu Zifeng's hand and floated in front of him. Liu Zifeng looked at it, and saw that in the ancient scroll, the first three pages that had been blank before were covered with small words.

The blood stains in the scroll did not stop until they were halfway through the fourth page.

The cavern disappeared with it, as if nothing had happened except for the gravel and dirt that had been shaken down from the ground.

The "wordless scroll" was restrained in red light at this time, and gradually disappeared. When the page was closed, all I could see was the three big characters "Earth Ghost Technique" on the cover, which shimmered with a dark cyan luster. Then, as if losing all support, it fell to the ground with a "snap".

There was a "squeak" sound, and the mound of stone and soil suddenly moved, and then a small head was seen popping out.

But it was the strange rat who had been buried in the falling dirt at some point, and now he had climbed out of the mound of dirt, and a small dark brown pot was hanging from his tail, and he was shaking off the dirt on his body "fluttering".

Apparently, the little thing was curiously fiddling with the little pot when it was suddenly buried by the falling gravel and dirt.

Looking at the mysterious ancient scroll in front of him, especially the three words "Earth Ghost Technique" were extremely dazzling. Liu Zifeng was silent for a moment, and when his breath calmed down, he picked up the ancient scroll that had fallen to the ground and opened it with some doubts.

"Heaven and earth are two qi, and the two qi are divided into yin and yang. The yang energy is light and ignorant, and the yin energy is obscure and dark, which is why it is ......"

Liu Zifeng looked at the ancient scroll Chinese characters, frowned, and didn't know what he was thinking.

The words are obscure and esoteric, the embodiment of the strange characters he had gleaned from the mysterious stone pillars. At this moment, although he could recognize them one by one, it was still foggy to read, and his head was big for no reason. It's just that after reading it, a sense of familiarity swept over me.

"It seems that there are methods from the "Ghost Spirit Sutra", but there are many more things than the "Ghost Spirit Sutra......"

Liu Zifeng frowned, pondering bitterly. But then I felt a shake on the ground beneath my feet, and the hole shook slightly.

He secretly said in his heart that it was not good, this is underground, and it is obvious that this movement is about to collapse. Suddenly, he jumped up and took the scroll in his arms. When I looked left and right, I saw that the strange rat was staggering and "squeaking" and running, and there was a small black-brown pot hanging from its tail, which jingled.

Looking at the appearance of the strange mouse, Liu Zifeng was also amused. But at this time, he didn't care about anything else, and with a strange mouse in one hand, he ran to the passage where he was going.

The sound of stones and soil rolling down in his ears was endless, and the willow wind was full of blue and black air, and the speed was faster.

Finally, when Liu Zifeng returned to the room, he saw that the holes he had dug had been buried with earth and rock.

There seemed to be no movement in the village until a new day dawned after the rooster crowed.
