Although some things happened, life went on as usual. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Things in the store are very ordinary these days, except for a real loser who spent 50 million to buy a jade.
"Immortal Chief. Liu Xingsi walked into the store and bowed to Xia Min.
"Huh?" Xia Min was stunned, "If you have anything to say, just call and say it, why bother coming all the way." ”
"This," Liu Xingsi said after walking a few steps, "I think it's better to say this matter in person." ”
Xia Min got up and went to the sofa, motioned for Liu Xingsi to sit and said.
"Could it be that there is a clue to that pattern?" Xia Min guessed, and suddenly his thick eyebrows trembled a few times, and Xia Min was still quite concerned about the blood map.
"Yes, during this gathering at the headquarters, I asked some elderly people at the headquarters and got some clues. Liu Xingsi's face changed, as if things were not easy to say.
"Oh," Xia Min came to be interested, "Let's hear it." ”
"They say this pattern is a totem of the demon. "Liu Xingsi was very unnatural when he talked about the tool demon, and he seemed to be a little panicked.
"Instrument demon?" Xia Min looked at Li Qingwan on the side, Li Qingwan shook her head and didn't speak. He said to Liu Xing again, "Go on." ”
"The first appearance of the tool demon was in the period of the Yellow Emperor in ancient times, they claimed to be a family of machine gods, but they acted like demons, so the people at that time called them tool demons. ”
"Ahh Liu Xun was surprised, in Liu Xun's cognition, everything that is ancient is very powerful.
"Sure enough, there is some history," Xia Min said lightly, although he was a little concerned in his heart, but he didn't show it, "It can be seen from the hieroglyphs, this doesn't make any sense, you go on." ”
"The last time this pattern appeared was during the War of the Gods. Liu Xingsi continued, "From the battle of the gods to the present, it has never appeared again, they thought that this tribe had completely disappeared, but who knew that this time it appeared again." ”
"Oh," Xia Min raised his eyebrows, "It's getting a little interesting." Don't stop talking. ”
"Uh. Liu Xingsi glanced at Xia Min with deep meaning. That look clearly meant that you didn't interrupt it yourself.
Xia Min suddenly realized, "I'm sorry, I'm used to talking to the two little girls, you go on." "I was embarrassed, but I didn't mean to be ashamed.
Liu Xingsi didn't dare to say that he couldn't listen to the honorifics, so he continued, "I heard the old people say that from the three emperors and five emperors to the changes of the Xia Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty, and finally the battle of the gods, the tribe of the demon has made some moves in it, and it is likely that it is the mastermind behind the scenes." ”
"Ah," Liu Xun let out an exclamation, quickly covered his mouth, and whispered, "It's so terrible, then it's better to ignore them." ”
"Is there anything else?" Xia Min ignored Liu Xun's words, and then asked Liu Xingsi, "This information is too one-sided, I don't know where to start." ”
"Just wait, the old people are at the headquarters, looking for some ancient books, maybe there will be clues. Liu Xingsi said.
"Is there any other way?" Xia Min shook his head, "The uncertain time is a bit troublesome, who knows if they will make a move." And I don't know if I can find a clue. He was a little anxious, such an unknown enemy made Xia Min a little worried, and his intuition told him that this tool demon would bring him a lot of trouble.
"This," Liu Xingsi nodded, "There is still a way, but I don't know if it will work." ”
"How?" Xia Min hurriedly asked.
"The ghosts and immortals in the underworld should know the specific situation, but it's too difficult for them to speak. Liu Xingsi shook his head after speaking.
"Huh?" Xia Min smiled, as long as there is a way, as for whether it will work, I will only know after trying it. "How can you know which ghosts and immortals you can contact if you don't try?"
"Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu have been in contact with each other a few times when they sent ghosts into the underworld before," Liu Xingsi said.
"Oh, it's the two of them. When Xia Min heard this, his thick eyebrows twitched, these two people are celebrities, "I've been listening to their stories, and I really want to meet them." ”
"Who are they?" Liu Xun asked Li Qingwan in a low voice.
"It's the legendary black and white impermanence. Li Qingwan pulled her tongue for a long time before returning to Liu Xun.
"Ahh Liu Xun screamed and hid in Li Qingwan's arms nearby.
"Well, don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Li Qingwan patted Liu Xun's shoulder and comforted in a low voice, "There's nothing to be afraid of, people in the underworld can't hurt mortals." ”
"How are you going to contact them?" Xia Min asked, he didn't know how to contact the people in the underworld.
"Use this, the ancestral gossip mirror," Liu Xingsi took out the gossip mirror and said, "It comes with its own information, I just need to activate the formation." Looking at Xia Min uncertainly, "I don't know if they are willing to say it, even if they are willing to say it, they will have to pay the corresponding price."
"It's okay," Xia Min directly interrupted Liu Xingsi's words, "Just try it, maybe they don't need me to pay the price when they see me as wise and martial." After saying that, he smiled narcissistically.
"Okay," Liu Xingsi nodded, "Then I'll start greeting them." ”
"Well, go ahead. Xia Min replied.
Liu Xingsi nodded, stepped aside, took out the gossip mirror and placed it flat on the ground, his hands were dancing, and his mouth was chanting, like some heavenly masters.
"Why is it so hard to get them to speak?" asked Liu Xun strangely.
"Because they are the servants of the underworld," Li Qingwan answered Liu Xun's question, Li Qingwan knew more about the world of ghosts than Xia Min, "As long as they become the servants of the underworld, they will no longer enter reincarnation, and karma will be completely eliminated, which means that they are already eternal existences." If they interfere in mortal affairs again, they will be re-tainted with the cause and effect of the mortal world, and if it is a good karma, it will be forgotten, and if it is a bad karma, then they may re-enter samsara, and this risk is too great. ”
"Ah," Ryu Kaoru stuck out her tongue, "then surely they won't speak." ”
"Not exactly. Li Qingwan continued, "If they simply intervene, then the cause and effect will be involved, but if it is a transaction, then the cause and effect will also be canceled." It's a bargain to pay, and the more serious it is, the more expensive it is. ”
"Then isn't this matter serious?" Liu Xun said as he looked at Xia Min with some concern.
"I don't know. After Li Qingwan finished speaking, she was silent.
Liu Xing thought for a while, and finally put his hands together and roared the word "disease." ”
I saw that the gossip mirror had become larger, either a phantom, or the whole thing had become larger, from the size of the palm, slowly increasing, about a minute, staying at about one meter and a half in length and width.
The verses depicted above begin to flicker, and finally emit a phantom, forming a pattern of yin and yang fish on the mirror surface in the middle. In the blink of an eye, all the scriptures fell silent, and the Bagua Mirror returned to its original size, leaving only a yin-yang fish pattern composed of phantoms.
"Why didn't you summon it?" asked Liu Xun weakly, a trace of curiosity in his big eyes.
"Well, this," Liu Xingsi was also a little strange, "Usually it comes out immediately, this time maybe it's busy, wait and see." ”
Suddenly, the Yin and Yang Pisces trembled, and the small black and white dots in the middle of the Yin and Yang Pisces gradually rose, stopping almost when they reached a height of two meters, and began to gradually thicken, and as time passed, only two pillars of light, one black and one white, remained.
"It's coming. Liu Xingsi said.
Liu Xun hid behind Li Qingwan in an instant, but she forgot that Li Qingwan was a ghost, and she was most afraid of ghosts, not to mention the famous black and white impermanence.
Li Qingwan was locked by the Sen Luo ghost aura emanating from the pillar of light, and regretted why she didn't leave first. looked at Xia Min for help, Xia Min's figure flickered, and she appeared in front of Li Qingwan. In an instant, Li Qingwan felt a little more at ease.
"Lao Liu, what is the matter this time?" In a blink of an eye, the pillar of light had disappeared, and two people, one black and one white, appeared in place, and the image was no different from the legend. It was the black impermanence that spoke, and Fan was helpless.
"Master Fan," Liu Xingsi pointed at Xia Min, "this is the one who is looking for you this time." ”
The two turned their heads and saw Li Qingwan behind Xia Min, Xie Bi'an said, "This female ghost, is she going to go to reincarnation?"
"Uh," Xia Min took a small step forward and said with a smile on his face, "I have something to ask the two of you to help." ”
Only then did the two of them see Xia Min, "Huh," they all sighed, and Fan Wusu asked in surprise, "Immortal?"
"Also..."Xia Min said embarrassedly, "I haven't become an immortal yet, so I'm short of enough merit." In front of others, Xia Min dared to call himself an immortal, but in front of these two, Xia Min didn't dare to hold up.
"In that case, if you don't do good deeds and accumulate merits, what are you looking for the two of us?" Xie Bi'an said, and then said, "You are all cultivating like this, what else do you need me and the two of us to do?"
"Do you have to say a word by one person?" Liu Xun may be because his mind has been trained well recently, and he has changed from fear at the beginning to doubt now.
Fan Wusu replied, "The two of us have been like this since ancient times, and it has been thousands of years. ”
Liu Xun stuck out her little tongue and nodded, although she was tired of looking at another person after hearing a sentence, but she didn't dare to say it.
"Here's the thing. "Xia Min drew the pattern of the machine god in the air, and now it is called the instrument demon.
After listening to Xia Min's words, the black and white looked at each other and nodded their heads.
"The stakes are high, and we don't want to get involved in cause and effect. Xie Bi'an looked at Xia Min and said.
"I understand, so, what price do you need to be able to speak?" Xia Min asked.
"Wait a minute, the two of us will discuss. Fan Wuxuan said, pulling Xie Bi'an to take a few steps back.
Black and white impermanence and the two muttered and discussed.
.........
"Isn't this a bit of a bit of abuse of power for personal gain?" Xie Bi'an asked uncertainly.
"Since Hades let us make our own decisions, there should be no problem. Fan Wusu continued, "Let's just let this quasi-immortal do the work for us, the cause and effect will be evenly divided, and we will be deducted some merit at most, I think it's okay." ”
"In that case," Xie Bi'an nodded, "Well, for them." ”
.........
"I can only tell you one thing, and neither of the rest of me nor can I dare to say more. Xie Bi'an said to Xia Min.
"Okay, one thing is enough. Xia Min smiled and nodded, the information of black and white impermanence could not be like Liu Xingsi, it had no practical significance.
"Listen," Fan Wusu stepped forward and said, "The demon is the best at controlling people's hearts under spells, if they are cursed, they can still be saved, if people's hearts are controlled, they are not immortals who cannot be solved." ”
"Thank you both. Xia Min nodded solemnly. This piece of information is important enough, it is estimated that the black and white impermanence has been released, otherwise it will be too late to be pitted.
"Well," Fan Wusu returned to the same place, Xie Bi'an stepped forward and said, "As for the price, there are two families in Gu Jianye City, and they are of good moral character, the king of Hades asked us to find some people in the mortal world, I think they are just right, you can help us run." ”
"Which two households?" Xia Min asked, Gu Jianye City is so big, and there are people with good morals, if not 10,000, but 8,000, how can you find this.
"In the slum north of the city, two people who like to wear black and white clothes. Xie Bi'an said and threw Xia Min two tokens, "Please tell them some basic knowledge, thank you." Then the two of them went into the ground one after the other.
When Xia Min heard this, a mouthful of dog blood almost gushed out, is this so-called, it is good to give it to your own people first, black clothes and white clothes, this feature is simply not too obvious.
"Are you going or am I going?" Xia Min looked at Liu Xingsi and asked, although he was also a little curious, he was still a little too lazy to move.
"I'm afraid that it will be difficult to take on this heavy responsibility, so let's ask the immortal chief to run. Liu Xingsi arched his hand towards Xia Min.
"In that case, then I'll take a trip," Xia Min heard this, nodded, since Liu Xingsi didn't want to go, then he would go on his own, and said to the two girls. "Stay there. ”
"Let's go together," Xia Min said to Liu Xingsi, "It's okay to take a ride." ”
The fairy chief smiled. ”
The two left together.
"Sister Qingwan," Liu Xun asked suspiciously, "what are they talking about?"
Li Qingwan touched Liu Xun's head, "Think about it slowly, your head is turning really slowly." ”
