Chapter 63: Growth
"Why should I help you, or what price are you willing to pay?" Dongfang Ling's face no longer smiled, and became like the eccentric girl in the past, and that delicate face only gave people a feeling of coldness.
Zhou Cheng raised his head, looked at Dongfang Ling, and then said seriously: "Except for my life, I can give everything I have." ”
"What's the use of me asking for your life..... Let me ask you, have you ever seen a person who entered the Dao in an instant and achieved a primordial god in an instant?" Dongfang Ling did not answer whether he was willing to help Zhou Cheng, but asked another question with a serious face.
"Yes, his name is Liu Hui, and he has been reincarnated. Zhou Cheng replied without hesitation.
"That's good, as long as you promise me that in the future, you will try to understand the few ancient books left by this person as much as possible. Not only can I help you today, but I will do my best to help you in the future. After hearing Zhou Cheng's affirmative reply, Dongfang Ling also agreed without hesitation, but she made another request.
"So you know him, and though I don't know the meaning of those ancient books, I can already memorize them backwards, and I can transcribe them for you if you want. Zhou Cheng became more and more puzzled in his heart, and several ancient books left by Liu Hui were also destroyed in the fire of Luoyang Zhou Mansion, but he had indeed memorized those contents in his mind.
"I don't actually know this person, but he is related to the four sages. Dongfang Ling saw that Zhou Cheng agreed, and his cold face finally eased slightly.
"You mean Zhang Heng and Luo Hong?" Zhou Cheng blurted out subconsciously.
Dongfang Ling nodded, and then continued: "Actually, these four grandmasters are all existences that are infinitely close to the Great Luo Golden Immortal, and they left with the ancestors. As for the transcription, there is no need, the ancient books you mentioned have been circulated for hundreds of years, and thousands of people have read and studied them, but only one person can get a glimpse of the door, and this person has already appeared, and now I can't understand it if you take it out! My mission is to find the two of you, and then help you as much as possible. ”
Dongfang Ling's words made Zhou Cheng more and more puzzled, and she mentioned her mission for the first time.
"We?" Zhou Cheng didn't know why Dongfang Ling would associate himself with Liu Hui.
"Yes, it's you. Otherwise, why did Liu Hui meet you before he was reincarnated, and not others?" Dongfang Ling looked at Zhou Cheng seriously, and said a reason that could not be called a reason.
"Okay, tell me what you're doing with me?"
"I would like to ask the girl to help me calculate two things with a spirit chess. Zhou Cheng immediately explained his intentions, and he no longer bothered about those things related to Liu Hui.
When Zhou Cheng was chatting at home, he mentioned Taoyuan Village and Dongfang Ling and others, and Qiao Yuwei once said that Dongfang Shuo has a set of spiritual chess, and the past and future can be calculated with the "Lingqi Sutra".
Back then, Zhou Cheng had also heard Dongfang Ling mention Lingqi, originally he hadn't cared about it, but now that he had encountered a great change, he thought of Dongfang Ling, and now he needs to use all possible strength.
"No problem, I don't know what Brother Cheng wants me to calculate?" Dongfang Ling replied without hesitation this time.
"I want to find the Eight Array Diagram left by Zhuge Kongming. ”
"Wait a moment...."Dongfang Ling nodded, and then his sleeves flicked.
I saw twelve spirit chess pieces flying out of the sleeves of Dongfang Ling's clothes, and then a primordial god appeared behind her, and now Dongfang Ling has become a family of primordial gods, and Lingqi no longer needs to be so troublesome as before.
Dongfang Spirit's body didn't move at all, but the Yuan Shen's fingers behind him lightly touched on the spirit chess, and then the twelve spirit chess pieces revolved around the Yuan Shen.
"Just in the Wuhou Temple in Shuzhong, what is the second calculation?" But after a moment, Dongfang Ling's body opened his mouth and said.
No one would have thought that the Eight Array Diagram was still in Zhuge Kongming's sacrificial ancestral hall.
"Xianyiguan this place, I want to know where it is?" Zhou Cheng's second thing to calculate was the remaining words 'Xianyiguan poems and texts' in Qiao Yuwei's manuscript.
Over the past year, Zhou Cheng has also been constantly figuring out these words, and he is almost certain that the three words Xianyiguan are a place name.
Dongfang Ling's Yuan Shen continued to calculate, and the spirit chess kept spinning and arranging, and this time it didn't stop for a long time.
Slowly as time passed, Zhou Cheng saw that the primordial spirits of the Eastern Spirit were shaking a little, and those spirit chess pieces changed from the original regular arrangement to flying indiscriminately, as if they were gradually losing control.
Seeing these changes, Zhou Cheng felt that the situation was not good, and there was a worried look in his eyes.
Under Zhou Cheng's gaze, the twelve spirit chess pieces suddenly fell violently, as if they were knocked down from the air by a huge force, and at the same time, the Yuan Shen of the Eastern Spirit stumbled, as if it had been hit hard.
Then the Yuan Shen returned to the Eastern Spirit Body, only to see her pale face, a little sluggish expression leaned over to pick up the spirit chess, and after a while, she said regretfully to the surroundings: "I'm sorry, this place can't be calculated!"
The Eight Array Diagram is already a very remarkable treasure, and it only takes a moment for the Spirit Chess to deduce its position, but the three words of Xianyiguan cannot be calculated.
"But what clues?" Zhou asked hurriedly, becoming more and more sure that these three words were not simple.
Dongfang Ling took two steps and leaned against a dead tree next to the grave of the old man Dongfang, as if she had just calculated that when she was salty and beautiful, she was extremely consumed.
"I've just been attacked by the power of time and space, and there are two possibilities for this to happen. Dongfang Ling leaned on the branch and said slowly after taking a few deep breaths.
Zhou Cheng didn't speak, just looked at Dongfang Ling quietly, waiting for her to continue.
The so-called power of time and space in the mouth of Dongfang Ling, Zhou Cheng had never heard of it before.
"One possibility is that this place has not yet appeared, that is, it may exist in the future. Although it is possible to estimate the future, it is also based on the present. For example, ordinary warlocks can deduce what may happen in the next few hours or days based on the geography of the heavens, and even the signs of various events. And those who are good at deduction and have profound deeds can calculate the rise and fall of the world for tens or hundreds of years. I thought that the Yuan Shen Cultivation was the same, and I couldn't calculate where Xian Yiguan was, which only meant that the time when it appeared would be very far away, and the farther away the time, the more difficult it would be. Dongfang Ling said slowly, this time she also explained some of the principles of deduction for Zhou Cheng in detail.
"Then the second possibility is from space?" Zhou Cheng had already found some clues from Dongfang Ling's words.
The first possibility of Dongfang Ling's theory can be understood as a backlash from the power of time and cannot be calculated, so the remaining possibility should be from the obstacle of the power of space.
"Right..... In fact, if you can comprehend the two classics of "Lianshan" and "Returning to Tibet", its ability to calculate is by no means under the "Lingqi Sutra", Brother Cheng must not guard Baoshan without knowing it!" Dongfang Ling said a little tiredly, as if she was reluctant to talk more about the backlash from the power of space, but seemed to be hinting to Zhou Cheng and asking him to study more of what Liu Hui left behind.
"Thank you, Oriental girl, then I'll go to Shuzhong first. Zhou Cheng thanked him and didn't plan to stay longer.
"Wait a minute....." When Zhou Cheng turned around, Dongfang Ling suddenly shouted.
Zhou Cheng turned to look at Dongfang Ling, and saw that Dongfang Ling finally showed a smile on his face, and then said: "Brother Cheng, let's call me Ling'er in the future, the old man is also dead, and I can't go back to the past no matter how much I pretend." ”
"Then Ling'er, farewell!" Zhou Cheng gave his hand again, he had no extra words, nor did he comfort Dongfang Ling, but Zhou Cheng could deeply understand Dongfang Ling's current mood.
"Brother Cheng, take care!" Dongfang Ling also bowed his hand slightly.
Although Zhou Cheng didn't tell Dongfang Ling what happened to him, he was as smart as Dongfang Ling and could feel the similarities between Zhou Cheng and himself.
The departure of relatives and the heaviness on their bodies have made the once frank and free and easy no longer exist.
Maybe that's what they grew up to be?
