Chapter 179: A Letter
The two bone demons fell to the ground, whimpering, revealing a look of fear.
Li Dao was thoughtful, his eyes looked at the divine platform, and he took out the memory stripped from the bone demon soul a little, and the divine sense probed into it...... After a long while, Li Dao opened his eyes, revealing a sudden expression.
It turns out that the true identity of these two bone demons is the two Taoist priests of Wudang Mountain, after Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, established Taoism as orthodoxy and gave Wudang Mountain to Zhang Sanfeng as a dojo.
At that time, Zhang Sanfeng was a rare master in the cultivation world, and his reputation was huge, and he helped Zhu Yuanzhang a lot in the process of expelling Yuan Sin, so he won Zhu Yuanzhang's respect.
In order to show his gratitude, Zhang Sanfeng sent his disciples to the imperial court to drive, these two bone demons were originally named Guanyi and Guaner, and they were the third generation of disciples in Wudang Mountain.
Later, King Yan rebelled, and these two Taoist priests protected Emperor Jianwen to escape from the capital, came to the East China Sea, and finally came to Si Styx Island to settle down.
After Emperor Jianwen came to the island, he became seriously ill and died within a few years, Guanyi and Guaner were afraid that Zhu Li would find him and destroy Emperor Jianwen's mausoleum, and finally decided to return to the bone demon after death and continue to guard the mausoleum for Emperor Jianwen.
After decades of hard work, they finally found two treasures in the depths of the East China Sea, one called ghost jujube and the other called purple glaze. Ghost jujube is the supreme holy medicine of the cultivators who practice the ghost path, it is extremely rare, and it is generally grown in mass graves or Jiuyin ditch and other places, but there are also such things in the three thousand miles of quicksand sacrifice in the East China Sea.
Guan Yi and Guan Er spent a lot of effort to find it, as long as they take this date when the time limit comes, and then bury the body underground, there will be a great chance of cultivating into a bone demon, and the cultivation will remain unchanged.
As for the purple glaze, it is a very rare treasure, it was not born in the Xuanhuang realm, but whenever a large number of meteor showers fall, there will be a star of purple cold light, crystal clear, similar to liquid, so it is also called purple glaze.
With patience, you can always collect one or two points at a time.
If it is placed on a human corpse, it can not only remain incorruptible, but also emit a purple light, which is ineffective for mortals, for ordinary monks, but for ghosts and ghosts.
This Guanyi and Guaner were also afraid that after cultivating into a bone demon, they would lose their nature and destroy Emperor Jianwen's corpse, so they took great pains to collect this purple glaze and refine it into a magic weapon and put it in his coffin.
The reason why the bone demon was afraid to step forward before was that there was still an intuition in his consciousness to guard Emperor Jianwen, and secondly, he was afraid of the magic weapon made of purple glaze, and the purple light just now was emitted by the purple glaze.
"I see, I said why there is a bone demon in this tomb, there is such a origin!"
Li Dao nodded and muttered to himself.
These two people can be regarded as loyal, seeing that their cultivation is not successful, and the time limit has come, they turned themselves into bone demon guards, this Jianwen Emperor's life is really good, there are two monks who are so dedicated to him, I don't know how many lifetimes of cultivation are blessings!
Li Dao sighed.
"Since you were called Guanyi and Guaner when you were alive, then you can't follow me without a name, let's call Guanyi and Guaner!"
Li Dao passed his thoughts to the two bone demons, causing them to stay where they were, and then slowly walked towards the golden coffin.
As soon as the light flashed, Li Dao appeared on the altar, and pushed the coffin away with a slight hesitation, and the sound of heavy friction sounded, and the coffin was completely opened after a while, and there was a small golden coffin inside.
This coffin is not made of gold, but of golden silk nanmu, which is very precious, only an inch in a hundred years, and used to hold the corpse, which is said to keep the corpse alive for thousands of years.
Li Dao secretly said sorry, and pushed the coffin open, revealing a lifelike corpse.
The corpse was a young man, who looked to be no more than thirty years old, a little fat, with a majestic face, wearing a bright yellow Nine Dragons robe, wearing an imperial crown, as if he was sleeping, but his mouth was bulging, and it seemed that he was holding something.
According to the memory of the bone demon, the purple glass was contained in Emperor Jianwen's mouth, Li Dao suspended his palm above Emperor Jianwen's mouth, and inhaled it with a little aura, and saw a purple bead, flying out in the glow.
Li Dao was very happy when he saw it, this is also a rare treasure, take it in his hand and play with it for a while, and then he will be in his pocket.
"Emperor Jianwen can't help it, you have been dead for so many years, it is a waste to put this thing here for you, and the Ming Dynasty no longer exists, you don't have to be afraid that your uncle will come to look for you, dust to dust, dust to dust, you can rest in peace!"
After speaking, Li Dao closed the coffin again and closed the coffin outside.
Then Li Dao is about to leave here, and sacrificed the yellow dragon boat, this treasure was not destroyed in the last battle, and now it is just right to take it out, there is this treasure in the land, why find any secret way out.
With two bone demons, Li Dao urged the yellow dragon boat to turn into a yellow mang and penetrate from the top of the tomb, and the road was extremely smooth.
In less than ten breaths, Li Dao reappeared on the top of the Young Emperor's Mountain, the temple was still the same, the mountain wind was blowing, and a touch of sunlight shrouded him, reflecting him into a golden yellow, looking a little sacred.
Re-entering the temple, the statue of Emperor Jianwen has turned into rubble and dust, and the big cow is gone, there is no blood on the scene, it is possible that the big cow was captured by that kid.
Li Dao couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved, if Da Niu died, his cause and effect would be heavy.
After receiving such a great favor from others, if he can't pay it back, it will be bad for his heart or mood, Li Dao doesn't like to owe others favors, especially this kind of life-saving favor.
What's more, he likes Da Niu very much, this is a very simple and honest teenager, it's just that he doesn't have his mother by his side, and now his father is afraid of accidents, such a life experience is pitiful enough, Li Dao doesn't want him to encounter any accidents.
Let's go back to the village to see the situation first, I hope that kid didn't go back to Chongming Island, otherwise it will be a little tricky!
Li Dao walked out of the temple, paused his feet, and once again drove the yellow dragon boat towards the tomb village at the foot of the mountain.
The flight came in a blink of an eye, and soon he came to Huling Village, found a corner where no one landed, and then walked towards Da Niu's house. The strange thing is that today's Huling Village seems very quiet, it is the kind of deathly silence, as if there are no people.
Li Dao vaguely sensed a smell of blood, as if something unusual had happened here, but he didn't think much about it, but quickly returned to Da Niu's house.
Zhu Dahai's corpse was prostrate in the courtyard, divided into two sections from the waist, and the blood flowed all over the ground, but it had already dried up, becoming a black and brown, the intestines and other internal organs flowed out and were half exposed outside, countless flies and mosquitoes were adsorbed on the nearby ground or corpses, buzzing, and the air emitted a foul smell.
What was surprising was that Zhu Dahai's head was missing, and he was actually beheaded and taken away.
Li Dao almost didn't have to think about it, it must have been done by this kid Yan Totuo, and he would insult him like this after he died, this kid was really ruthless, but the more this was the case, the stronger the killing intent in Li Dao's heart became, his life was saved by Zhu Dahai, so he couldn't ignore it.
Yan Tuotuo, he will kill him!
With a sigh, Li Dao said: "I'll call you Brother Zhu, thank you for saving my life in the sea, and risking your life to find wisteria roots to heal me, this kind of kindness Li is difficult to repay." Don't worry, I will definitely help you avenge the big revenge, and I will definitely help you get it back, and do my best to make him worry-free in this life, Li Dao swears to the sky, if he violates it, it will be difficult to advance an inch in this life!"
This oath is a bit heavy, and the oath that monks generally make will not be related to cultivation unless it is absolutely necessary, because monks have demons in their hearts, and if they do not fulfill their vows, they will turn into demons.
Li Dao made this oath today, if it is not completed, the inner demon will be very likely to be born, and finally become a demon barrier, making it difficult for him to cultivate an inch.
Zhu Dahai didn't know whether to be happy or relieved, after all, it was very rare for a monk to make a solemn promise to a mortal.
"Born here, died here, then be buried here!"
Li Dao shook his head and decided to bury Zhu Dahai, after all, the body could not be exposed, but it was a pity that there was a missing head, which made it look a little imperfect.
Li Dao dug a big pit under the big tree in the courtyard, went out to find an ancient tree, cut it into a moderate length, planed it, and finally formed a simple coffin.
Holding the coffin back to the courtyard, Li Dao collected Zhu Dahai's body and prepared to put it in the coffin, at this time he found a letter on the ground, which was stained with blood, and he didn't see it just now under Zhu Dahai's corpse.
"This should be left by Zhu Dahai before he died, I don't know if it was left for Da Niu or for himself?"
After thinking for a while, Li Dao put the letter in his bag, and then continued to get busy, and it took almost a stick of incense to put the coffin into the pit, fall into the soil, cover the soil, and finally there was a raised grave bag at the root of the big tree.
Life is like this, death is nothing more than a circle of loess the size of a horsewhip, and no matter how much struggle and ambition or desire is turned into dirt.....
Back in the house, Li Dao took out the letter and read it carefully.
