Chapter 152: Doubts
The sudden headache was almost like a sharp axe directly slashing at the top of Shen Shi's head, and the feeling was so intense that Shen Shi almost couldn't sit up straight while his eyes were full of gold stars.
After the secret method of the Heavenly Darkness Mantra came into contact with the mysterious acupoint in the center of the eyebrows, the reaction was completely different from the consequences of those ordinary qi veins around the body, it looked strangely furious, as if it was going to completely tear open this acupoint, with the center of the eyebrows, Shen Shi only felt as if his head was desperately slammed in all directions from the inside by a force, and it was about to crack.
Faced with this unexpected anomaly, Shen Shi was naturally taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to stop the operation of the Heavenly Immortal Mantra, but at this moment, the aura that had been quietly dormant at the eyebrows and heart points also suddenly stirred, and it seemed to sense the mana of this Heavenly Immortal Mantra and slowly expanded.
As the air mass spread, Shen Shi suddenly felt that the pain had subsided a lot, and at the same time, he faintly noticed that whether it was the original spiritual power or the new Heavenly Immortal Mana, it seemed that they were trying to expand this eyebrow acupoint.
His heart moved, and at the same time, he felt that the severe headache began to subside slowly, and it was not unbearable at the moment, after gritting his teeth, he continued to persevere, and at the same time concentrated on looking at the center of his eyebrows, and sure enough, he saw that after a while, under the action of double pressure, the point in the center of the eyebrows, which had not moved since its formation, seemed to have some signs of loosening.
However, after a few impacts, it seemed that these new powers were not enough to shake the eyebrows, so those spiritual powers quickly quieted down, and after a moment of silence, Shen Shi soon saw that the condensed spiritual power had also begun to collapse inward.
Because of the scene that he had experienced in the qi veins of his body before, Shen Shi already had a premonition in his heart, and at this moment, he was even more concentrating on casting spells, observing carefully, and sure enough, he saw that under the urging of the Heavenly Immortal Mantra, the spiritual power in this part of his eyebrows seemed to have undergone some tempering, although the total amount did not increase or decrease in the slightest, but it seemed that the shape was slightly smaller, and some of the spiritual power was already more solid and heavy.
It was like several spiritual auras were gathered together by strange powers, converging into an even more powerful spiritual power.
I don't know how long it took, Shen Shi, who had been sitting tense in place, slowly relaxed, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and slowly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, at this moment, it is all a color of contemplation, whether it is the spiritual power in the ordinary qi veins, or the spiritual power in the eyebrows, after he runs the Heavenly Immortal Mantra, what happens is basically the same, it seems that the effect of this Heavenly Spiritual Mantra is to refine and condense the spiritual power in the body?
But what is the use of this, Shen Shi searched all over his body, but he still didn't find the slightest clue for a while......

In Fengming City, outside the secret room in the belly of the mountain, the old white monkey carried a big cloth bag, crutches, and walked over from a distance, and saw from a distance that outside the passage of the mountainside of the secret room, a group of demon clans gathered in the passage were tinkering with something.
When he got closer, it was a group of green snake guards who had added a heavy stone door to the original secret door, and at this moment, it looked like it was roughly done, and a group of half-human, half-snake snake demons were humming and chirping to push a long boulder that had been obtained from nowhere, and pushed it into the groove that had been dug out temporarily.
The old white monkey looked at it for a while, and said curiously: "Hasn't this original secret door been repaired, okay, what are you doing here?"
Among the group of green snake guards who were sweating with a bad face, most of them ignored him, and there was a snake demon who was familiar with him for a long time, and he spit out the snake letter in his mouth and "sizzled" a few times, and said angrily: "It's not all the black fox who just came is troublesome, and inexplicably said to Niangniang that the secret door here is too unsafe, once it is discovered, it can be easily attacked, it is better to install a heavy stone door, if there is a change, as long as someone inside or outside closes the stone door first, at least it can block the enemy for a while, so that the reinforcements will naturally arrive." I'm in this good situation, even the Black Phoenix Demon Clan has been driven away by us, where will there be any enemies?"
The old white monkey laughed, laughed and walked into the secret room by bypassing these resentful green snake guards who had delayed the looting because of their work.
After a while, he walked to the secret room in the belly of the mountain where the tiny teleportation circle was hidden, only Shen Shi and the little black pig stayed here in the secret room, the little black pig looked still lying on the ground and sleeping, while Shen Shi was leaning against a piece of golden fetal stone, looking a little listless, as if he was contemplating, and at the same time holding a broken old paper in his hand, occasionally his eyes would sweep to it.
The old white monkey walked over with a smile and said hello to him, Shen Shi raised his head, saw that it was the old white monkey, and there was a little smile on his face, and he casually put the broken paper into his arms, and then got up and walked over. The old white monkey poured the big bag in his hand in front of him, and suddenly there was a lot of uproar, and out of the bag fell out of the appearance of a hundred books, and in a blink of an eye, a small mountain of books was piled up on the ground, and at the same time said with a smile: "There are so many books, enough for you to read in the past few days." ”
Shen Shi laughed, and was not polite to him, walked to the pile of books on the ground and squatted down, rummaging through the pile of books with interest.
The old white monkey walked to another golden fetal stone with a cane, and sat on the ground with his back to the ground without scruples like Shen Shi, and then smiled, but took out something from his arms and said to Shen Shi: "What do you guess I found in the city in front of me?"
Shen Shishi's nose moved, but this time he smelled it, and said with a smile: "Good guy, I actually found wine for you again?" It's just that when his eyes fell on the old white monkey's hand, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, only to see that it was not a wine jar that was commonly used to hold wine on weekdays, but a wine gourd that looked much smaller, "How can there be such a thing, but this thing is too small, how much wine can be held, I'm afraid it won't be enough for you to drink." ”
The old white monkey smiled proudly, brought the wine gourd to his mouth and took a sip, and after a while, he showed a satisfied look, which seemed to have an endless aftertaste, and then squinted at Shen Shi and said, "Do you want to try it?"
Shen Shi shook his head and said, "Don't drink it, it's too sour." ”
The old white monkey glanced at him and said, "Stupid pig, Fengming City is the most prosperous big city in the Black Prison Mountain for hundreds of years, can the wine in this city be compared to the inferior wine of the barren mountains and mountains of the Demon Tiger Stream?"
"Huh?" Shen Shi heard this, but felt that there was some truth, and he felt a little moved for a while, and with a little curiosity, he took the wine gourd handed over by the old white monkey, opened his mouth and took a sip.
After a while, I saw Shen Shi's brows furrowed, and the expression on his face looked a little crying and laughing.
The old white monkey didn't care, took back the wine gourd, and asked him with a smile, "How is it?"
Shen Shi glanced at him, chirped twice in his mouth, and finally reluctantly said after a while: "Okay, this wine...... Not so sour. ”
The old white monkey snorted and said angrily: "It's good to drink some, do you know how hard it took me to find this little bit of wine in the cellar of this Black Phoenix Mansion? However, as he spoke, he seemed to be a little emotional, and sighed, "Alas, when can I drink the 'Huadiao' brewed by the human race, I will really die without regrets." ”
Shen Shi sneered and said: "These wines are either sour and lose their teeth, or they are sour and not so toothless, and this taste is not so good, I can only say that old monkey, your taste is simply to drink vinegar." ”
The old white monkey rolled his eyes, waved his hand and said, "Go and go, read your book, I am reluctant to give this wine to others." ”
Shen Shi smiled and lowered his head and continued to read, and the old white monkey had no intention of getting up, so he sat there comfortably, drinking a sip of sour wine from time to time, the monkey's head swayed slightly, and after a while, his mouth slowly hummed a tune.
Shen Shi listened to this song while flipping through the book, and soon heard from the familiar tune that this was the ancient song that the old white monkey had sung to him in the past, which was handed down from the days of the Heavenly Demon King Court:
Open the world...... Breaking the Hongmeng ...... The Demon Comes Out ...... Wan Shining......
Laughing at the world...... Ant ...... But I am a demon...... Immortal......
The old and desolate song echoed in the same old voice, and gradually the other voices in the secret room seemed to fade away, only this ancient song, which had been prominent in the past years, but now had lost its romance, echoed in a faint and low voice.
In the world under the blue sky, there seems to be no place for this ancient song, only in this cold and hard stone wall, there is an old monkey quietly singing when no one is around.
Phi Jianjian...... Behead the enemy...... Blood gushing...... Thirst will drink......
The reckless tune gradually went down, it seemed that even the old white monkey himself was a little tired, I don't know if humming this ancient song made him feel a little difficult, when he finally stopped singing, first drank a big sip of wine, and then closed his eyes against the golden fetal stone, but he didn't speak for a long time.
In the secret room, there was a little silence for a while. Shen Shi looked at a book again, and found that he was not too interested in the content recorded in it, so he casually threw it aside, raised his eyes to look at the old white monkey, and saw that the old man still maintained that appearance, he couldn't help but be a little worried for a while, and after hesitating for a moment, he still opened his mouth to ask him a question, thinking that the old man was very serious, so it was better to divert the topic first:
"Old monkey, do you have nothing to do outside, why do you stay here all the time?"
The old white monkey opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said lightly: "There are a lot of things outside, everyone is busy dying and alive, desperately grabbing things." ”
Shen Shi smiled, stood up and stretched his waist, walked a few steps around the golden fetus stone of this teleportation array, and waved his arm at the same time, which was considered to be a move of his body, but between the walks, his heart moved, but he turned his head and said to the old white monkey: "Old monkey, I have something in my heart that I have always wanted to ask you, but I didn't have a chance a few days ago, so I just want to ask you now." ”
The old white monkey frowned, raised his eyes to look at him, and said, "What's the matter, look at your serious appearance?"
Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and said, "Have you ever seen the Terran, what does the Terran look like?"
The old white monkey was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Well, why do you think about this?"
Shen Shi didn't answer him, just urged him, the old white monkey thought for a while, and said: "I told you about the human race a long time ago, as early as after the demon war, all the remaining human races in the demon world were killed, so to this day, don't talk about me, even all the demon clans in this demon world, none of them have ever seen the human race." After a pause, he seemed to be considering the words he used, and continued, "As for what the human race looks like, you only need to look at Yulin Niangniang or the old black phoenix of the Black Phoenix Demon Clan, basically cultivating to the realm of earth demons, our demon clan will fade all traces of demon beasts and turn into a truly complete human form." ”
"Smack!" Suddenly, Shen Shi suddenly gave a strong high-five, and said loudly, "That's right, this is it." ”
The old white monkey was taken aback by him, and a spirit almost lost the wine gourd in his hand, and hurriedly sat down tightly, only then did he glared at the stupid pig who looked a little excited, and said in amazement: "What are you crazy about?"
Shen Shi looked at him and asked with a puzzled expression: "Old monkey, I have thought about this before, I am very puzzled, you said that our demon clan is the first race to be favored by the holy demons in the world, and the bloodline of all directions is noble, right?"
The old white monkey nodded heavily as a matter of course and said, "Not bad!"
Shen Shi stared at him and said, "Then why is it that when our demon clan cultivates, the higher the realm, the more it looks like the human race......?
In the end of this question, Shen Shi's voice involuntarily slowly lowered, and he saw that the old white monkey's face quickly darkened, looking at his face with annoyance, after a while, Shen Shi found that the old white monkey was silent by himself, and did not seem to answer his own meaning, he couldn't help but be a little worried, and screamed tentatively, and said:
"Old monkey, didn't I just say the wrong thing?"
The old white monkey snorted and said, "Nonsense, of course you are wrong, and it is very wrong. Why is our demon race not as good as the human race, and the higher the cultivation, the more like the human race, let me tell you, if this is changed in the Heavenly Demon King Court for thousands of years, these few words alone will be enough to tie you to the 'Hongjun Pillar' outside the Demon Palace of Tianhong City and burn you alive. ”
Shen Shi subconsciously shrunk his neck, although he knew that what the old monkey was saying at the moment was just a joke and didn't mean to take it seriously, but he still couldn't help but feel an inexplicable chill when he thought about that era in his heart.
After a pause, the old white monkey seemed to feel that what he had just said was a bit excessive, coughed twice, and his face softened, but his expression was still a little serious, and he said to Shen Shi Zhengse: "What you said just now is extremely inappropriate, the two demon clans are an undying blood feud, if you go out and talk nonsense and be heard, I am afraid that you will cause great trouble, so you must be cautious in the future." ”
Shen Shi nodded.
Then the old white monkey was silent for a while, and said lightly: "The Hongmeng Hundred Clans are all created by the Holy Demon Emperor, the ancestor of our clan, and naturally my demon clan is the head. The Holy Demon Emperor bestowed upon me that the Demon Race was gifted far superior to other clans, this is ironclad evidence, and there is no need to say more. As for the coincidental similarity with the human race, you need to keep in mind that it was the grace that the Holy Ancestor Emperor gave to the human race at will when he created the Hongmeng Hundred Clans in the past, and based on the appearance of my heavenly demon, he created the appearance of the human race, but the human race is so weak and ungrateful in the future, it is not worthy of this gift at all. You just need to remember one thing, my demon race is born extremely noble and a hundred times stronger than the human race. ”
"It turns out that the human race is like the demon race...... Shen Shi was silent for a moment and nodded silently.
After saying this, the atmosphere was unconsciously a little cold, the old white monkey drank two more sips of wine, and then wanted to get up and leave, but at this moment, he suddenly heard Shen Shi sitting there, and suddenly asked another question: "Old monkey, did the human race in our demon world really kill all of them back then?"
The old white monkey suddenly felt a burst of anger in his heart, he was really a little irritated listening to the topic of this human race during this day, he snorted coldly, and the expression on his face became cold, and said: "How many times have I told you, I have already killed it all." ”
It's just that the expression on Shen Shi's face over there seems to be a little strange, as if hesitating, as if confused, after hesitating for a moment, he still said:
"That's strange, on the night of the siege, I seemed to see a human child......"
