Chapter 17: Cause and Effect II
"Later ......"
The old man raised his head, his eyes cloudy, as if searching for a trace of memory from that distant time and space. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Later, that night we went to the mysterious cemetery......"
"After entering, I unexpectedly didn't encounter any powerful formation mechanisms. I think it was the first generation of sect masters who buried that person, and they were going to build this place into a huge cemetery in the future, and in the Danhua Sect's layers of protection, there would be no need for any phantom array prohibition......"
"I don't want the ear room and the utensils room to be empty, then Zhao Zhen and I are extremely disappointed. I thought I might be going to miss...... When I arrived at the main burial chamber, it was empty, only a bluestone sarcophagus without a coffin. ”
"When we pried open the sarcophagus, we didn't see the remains of the man's feathering, only a set of clothes - it was a clothed mound!"
"We were both very frustrated. If it's not early, it's going to be dawn. I persuaded Zhao Zhen to leave quickly, but Zhao Zhen did not give up. Test hidden traps everywhere in the tomb......"
"Tried to no avail...... Eventually, he asked me to remove the sarcophagus......"
"After removing the sarcophagus, there were indeed two things in the pit below......"
Zhao Zhen rushed to pick up the big one, but it was a small black Dan furnace. ”
"I saw that he had picked it, so I had to pick up the small one next to me...... It's the jade plate in my hand right now. ”
"I don't know what the material of the Dan furnace is, it is not gold or stone, but there is brilliance in the ink...... Zhao is really good at fiddling with it and can't put it down. Who wanted him to rummage for a long time, but suddenly found a hole next to the furnace ear......"
"Those who make alchemists know that no matter how good the Dan furnace is, once it is broken, it will be useless. Either throw it away, or you can only melt it as a material...... That Zhao Zhen was really shameless, and he was so embarrassed that he wanted to exchange the Dan furnace for my jade plate. ”
"How can I change it to him! I originally said that I would pick it first, and if he picked it first, I didn't squeak. Now I regret it, and I can't be a fool ......"
Later, I naturally broke up unhappily, and I didn't think much about it, so I took the jade card and went back. ”
"Who would have thought that Zhao Zhen would go to the sect to complain later, and he actually bit me back...... He said that I had colluded with him to steal the man's tomb, but he refused, and he suspected that I had succeeded, so he denounced me...... How unjustifiable it really is!"
"I started to deny it, but I didn't think that Zhao Zhen had already prepared...... He had taken advantage of my unpreparedness to accidentally amputate one of my hair, and left it in the main burial chamber, but he wrapped his head in a black cloth and wrapped it tightly. ”
"Although our words are different, we are both inner sect elders in the Jindan period, and the sect master naturally can't use the method of searching souls and hurting brains to distinguish the authenticity...... I had to use my magic in the main burial chamber, but I only found my hair......"
"No one believed me when I said anything later...... The sect master was furious, and with his supreme divine power, he shattered my golden pill, dismissed my inner door elder, collected my mustard seed bag, and sent me to this seventh peak waste pill room......"
"Then Zhao Zhen was rewarded...... But he was not satisfied, and while my cultivation was exhausted, he caused someone to come here and break my leg...... It's a pity that there is no one to stand up for me...... In the past thirty years, he has often secretly come to force me to hand over the whereabouts of the jade plate......"
The old man spoke intermittently, but it did not prevent Zhu Jue from understanding the general situation.
Sure enough, human affection is warm and cold, and the world is so sinister. I couldn't help but sigh after listening to it.
The old man was still rubbing the whitened jade plate with his hand.
"Fortunately, I kept a hand...... When I searched for him, I was glad I didn't put him in a mustard seed bag......"
As he spoke, he raised his head, and there was a trace of cunning and complacency in his old eyes when he looked at Zhu Jue.
"Guess where I hid it at the time?"
"Could it be ......?"
"You guessed it, I hid in the heel of my shoe so they didn't find it. ”
Poof, brother won't tell you that brother actually guessed wrong.
Zhu Jue secretly wiped his sweat.
The old man didn't seem to notice.
"I used the True Yuan to inject this jade plaque before, and sure enough, there was a huge text...... But I didn't recognize it at all, but memorized the shape of the strokes of the four words at the beginning of the volume. ”
"Later, I was abolished and cultivated, so I didn't have a chance to study it...... Until I came to this ruined cave, I was always writing and drawing on the ground when I was bored, hoping that someone would see it by chance and be able to recognize it. But after thirty years, there are more than 100 handymen who have come to help in this cave, and no one has reacted in any way, only thinking that it is me, a madman, who is scribbling ......"
"Now that I am about to die of life, I will despair, thinking that this jade plate will accompany me to sleep in this cave, and I will never see the light of day from now on...... I didn't think you knew ...... today."
"Providence, providence ......"
As he spoke, the old man stuffed the jade plaque into the slightly dazed young man's hand.
"It's yours from now on...... Take good care of it, and don't show it to anyone!"
Zhu Jue nodded, caressing this smooth and transparent thing lovingly.
Who would have thought that after the jade card entered the hands of the young man, it would suddenly flow in time, flashing several brilliant rays of light, and after a while, it gradually disappeared and restored its original appearance.
It's like seeing a confidant and can't hide the excitement.
"Haha, it seems that it also feels like it has found its true owner...... It turns out that I almost ruined Zhuyu in the coffin, sins, sins, ......"
The old man had already seen everything. After talking about cause and effect, it is easy and calm at this time.
"Back then, I was lame and suffered a lot for it...... Now that you have received my jade medal, I don't deliberately ask you for anything...... If you have the opportunity in the future, go to find that Zhao Zhen and show me this heavenly reason......"
"I didn't want you to take the risk...... That Zhao Zhen is now a core elder, and his cultivation has not yet reached the Jindan layer...... But now that you have this notebook, you believe that in time, anything will be possible. ”
"Remember not to be sure, don't go to death...... The longer it takes, the more sure you will be......"
Zhu Jue put the jade plate close to his body, nodded solemnly and said, "I wrote down your business." I will repay him as much as you enmity!"
Nodding with satisfaction, the old man's eyes narrowed again, obviously a little tired again.
Zhu Jue hurriedly helped the old man back to the hut and waited for him to lie down and rest.
The old man grabbed Zhu Jue's wrist again, and said with difficulty, "The number of days is fixed...... I also knew my time was running out...... I really want to wait until the day when I get my revenge, but I ...... Ahem......"
Zhu Jue hurriedly patted the old man's back, and the old man took a while to get over this breath.
"Your cultivation is still shallow now, at least you have to reach the Qi Condensation Realm to see the words in that jade tablet...... You have to hurry...... Hold on to ......"
Seeing what the old man said, the young man nodded hurriedly.
"Don't worry, I will not slack off! Courage and diligence are what my monks should do. ”
The old man finally closed his eyes with peace of mind, and fell asleep on his back.
Zhu Jue was still sitting beside Chuang, his brows furrowed.
"Condensation Realm ......"
