Chapter 10: Hope
The heavy stone door closed behind Xiao Bai with a low sound, and at the same time isolated the noisy sounds in the distance, and Xiao Bai's bright eyes swept around the room. Then it fell on the man who was sitting behind the bookcase in front of him. That man was tall, with a majestic face and a majestic bearing, and he was the king of ghosts.
At this moment, the ghost king also raised his eyes to look at Xiao Bai, but did not speak, before Xiao Bai came here, he had gathered a lot of resentment in his heart, but at this moment, he actually felt that he should not only start with He. Snorted, his eyes unexpectedly glanced at the stone room again, and then frowned slightly, and a strange feeling appeared in his heart, as if there was something wrong with this room, but all the furnishings around her were exactly the same as when she came here before, without the slightest change, and even Xiaobai himself couldn't tell what was wrong.
At this time, the ghost king slowly stood up and said, "Why did you suddenly come back again?"
His voice was very low, and it seemed to be a little different from the tone of his previous words, but Xiao Bai was thinking about many things at the moment, and he didn't pay much attention to it, and when the ghost king asked this, she sneered and said, "So you still know that I'm back? ”
The Ghost King said lightly, "Oh, then what are you doing?"
Xiaobai said impatiently: "I came back to look for ghosts, but I don't have time to talk about this now, I have a lot to ask you......"
"Wait!" The Ghost King's calm face suddenly changed, interrupting Xiaobai and said, "You mean you want to find Ghost Li?"
Xiaobai glanced at him, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and said, "So what?"
The ghost king's face sank, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Xiao Bai for a moment, an inexplicable chill seemed to slowly emanate from his eyes, but Xiao Bai didn't seem to feel anything, his face remained unchanged, but he looked directly into the eyes of the ghost king, faintly provocative.
After the two looked at each other for a moment, the ghost king suddenly sighed, first looked away, and said, "It's nothing. ”
Xiao Bai snorted coldly and said, "Let me ask you, there has been chaos in the Fox Qi Mountain for a long time, people are inexplicably crazy and hurt people every day, people die tragically every day, the people of the Ghost King Sect are panicked, everyone is in danger, do you know?"
The Ghost King stood with his hands in his hands, but his expression seemed to be as stiff as a rock after hearing the astonishing news, and after a while, he said lightly, "Oh, there is such a thing?"
Xiao Bai's anger was not trivial, he took a step forward and said angrily: "As the Sect Master of the Ghost King Sect, how can you be insensitive to such a big thing, what do you think in your heart?"
The Ghost King turned around, his eyes became more and more indifferent, he glanced at Xiao Bai, and said in a cold tone: "Do you also know that I am the Sect Master of the Ghost King Sect, but I don't know who you are from the Ghost King Sect, Xiao Bai girl, why is Feng in charge of my Ghost King Sect's family affairs?"
Xiao Bai was stunned, obviously he didn't expect the ghost king to say such words, his face was even more angry, and the eyes of the two were like sharp blades in the stone room, silently colliding!
I don't know how long it took, but I only heard Xiaobai say word by word: "This foundation, and my sister's little idiot was in it back then, I don't care what kind of madness you have, but I can't watch you ruin it!"
"Ruined it?hahahaha......" The ghost king seemed to suddenly hear the most ridiculous words, laughed loudly, and his expression changed even more, from yīn Shen instantly to arrogance, raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, and said: "What do you know, it is because of the hard work of a little idiot in this foundation that I manage it with my heart, and after seeing that I dominate the universe and dominate the world, I know my means, hahahaha......" His laughter was rampant, his expression was flying, and his demeanor was very different, and there was no calm state at all.
Xiao Bai couldn't help but be stunned, as a nine-tailed sky fox, although she was kind to others, she didn't necessarily take human life seriously, but seeing the ghost king's expression at this moment, she completely ignored the lives of countless disciples of the ghost king sect under her door, even if she was a demon in the eyes of the human race, she felt excessive. Xiao Baizhi felt that he was really wrong to come back this time, everyone around him seemed to be about to become crazy, and those who were not crazy were almost as crazy as crazy, and the ghost king in front of him was also abnormal, which was really infuriating and confusing.
Extremely angry, Xiao Bai shouted angrily: "Are you crazy, those people are your disciples, how can you ignore their lives?"
The ghost king was originally still looking up to the sky and laughing wildly, but as soon as the sentence "crazy" in the little vernacular entered his ears, his expression suddenly changed, the muscles on his face twisted slightly, the laughter stopped, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he looked straight at Xiaobai.
Xiao Bai's machete ghost king's demeanor changed abruptly, faintly revealing a bit of murderous aura, and his heart shook slightly, and almost at the same time, she had already been keen on the cultivation path of the demon fox the year before, and found something that made his body shake slightly, and he looked up in amazement, looking at the ghost king.
In the stone room, in the silence, there was a faint drum of strange blood, and this strange power, although Xiao Bai didn't want to believe it in his heart, was clearly the ghost king's body slowly emanated!" You...... Say...... Miscellaneous...... What?"
The ghost king stood there, staring at Xiaobai, his voice became low again, and he slowly spit out this question from between his teeth.
Xiaobai didn't answer, she just looked at the ghost king, and then the face merchant application slowly calmed down from the initial shock, turned expressionless, and in the end, she even had a faint hint of sarcasm in her eyes, only to see that she was silent for a long time, but she raised her head and said lightly: "I was in a hurry just now, I didn't speak right, don't you care." ”
These words were unexpected, and with his calmness, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but no matter what, Xiao Bai said this, and the originally tense atmosphere in the stone room suddenly relaxed, and the mysterious and strange bloody murderous aura seemed to slowly fade away.
Xiaobai glanced at the Ghost King deeply and said, "I just said, I'm here to find the Ghost Calendar, since he's not here, I'm too lazy to stay here, I'll leave." ”
The ghost king hesitated for a moment, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he hadn't figured out the reason for the sudden change in Xiaobai's attitude for a while, and even hesitated to speak.
But Xiaobai didn't give the ghost king more time to think about it, and said straightly: If you have nothing else, I will leave. As he spoke, he turned to the stone gate and walked towards him.
The stone chamber where the ghost king lives is naturally spacious, but after all, it was built in the middle of the mountain, and no matter how spacious it is, it can't go anywhere faster. Xiao Bai was only within ten steps of the stone gate, watching his slender figure walk towards the stone gate, the expression of the ghost king standing behind him suddenly changed, and all kinds of complex gods were intertwined, suddenly murderous, and suddenly hesitant.
It's just that Xiaobai's walking speed has not slowed down in the slightest, ten steps away, even if the speed is not fast, it can be reached in a blink of an eye. The heavy stone door slowly opened in front of her, and with a low roar, she didn't look back.
The placket of the white sè wrapped around his slender and plump figure, gently swinging.
Where did the wind come from in the grotto in the middle of the mountain? Behind her, silently, she knew that the heavy door was closed again, separating her from the stone chamber. Xiao Bai stood indifferently, took a deep breath, and walked slowly along the empty passage, and as she walked, her body slowly relaxed from the tight tension just now.
Her eyes still had a bit of a mysterious smile, but she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart, but her gaze swept over the empty passage around her, and suddenly her gaze fell on the rough and deep cracks that were bound to be around, and then, a sneer of confirmation flashed across his face again.
She already knew the reason for the kind of mismatch she first felt in the Ghost King Stone Chamber just now, there were these strange mysterious cracks everywhere in the Ghost King Sect's crying in Huqi Mountain, only in the Ghost King Stone Chamber just now, the stone wall inside was different.
Intact!
The ghost calendar fell from the sky from a high altitude, and the monkey Xiao Gray Yi lay on his shoulder, looking around, for the active little gray, it seems that there is never a quiet time, and the monkey can never see the word tiredness in the body.
However, the monkey will not get tired, but its owner's face is a little heavy, and the ghost calendar fell to the ground, and in the distance, he stood tall and desolate Huqi Mountain, but somehow, he did not land directly at the door of the Ghost King Sect Cave of Huqi Mountain like Rì, but landed at the foot of Huqi Mountain, and then slowly walked towards the mountain. It can be seen that Ghost Li's demeanor is quite solemn, his brows are tightly locked, maybe even he has forgotten how long it has been since he really smiled.
There was a slight heavy feeling in his chest, and the ghost calendar didn't need to reach out to touch it, and he knew what it was--the mysterious magic weapon Qiankun Reincarnation Disk! Ghost Li had never heard of such a magical treasure in this world before, and he never imagined that a wandering Jianghu Xiangshi Zhou Xian would know this secret that was extremely secret even in Tianyin Temple, but after his little hope, it was more worry, anxiety and confusion. Until this moment, he still can't understand this magic weapon, and even if he thinks about it, Master Pude has been the four great gods and monks of Tianyin Temple for decades, how can he solve this mystery in just a few days? But what about Baguio?
Oni Li stopped, took a deep breath, his expression seemed to be overwhelmed by the weight of a thousand pounds, and after a long time, he suddenly smiled bitterly and walked towards the mountain again.
How many people always say that life is like a dream, but they don't know that in the world, no matter what kind of dream, they always have to face it!
Before he knew it, he had walked to the entrance of the cave of the Ghost King Sect's main hall.
Several disciples on duty at the door saw his figure, and they were startled at first, and then they seemed to think of something, and their faces showed great joy, and they all ran over.
"Deputy Sect Master, you're back. ”
"You came back a step late, the little white girl came back to look for you, and just left!"
"If you don't come back, we, we really don't know if we'll see you alive......"
A stack of disorganized words made Ghost Li take aback, and he was stunned: "What did you say?"
The disciples of the Ghost King Sect have really been trapped in a sea of swords and fires, and they are miserable, but in this case, all the people who are in charge of affairs in the rì have disappeared, and the four holy envoys have been quite prestigious, but after Qinglong went to southern Xinjiang, he has not heard from him, and he has been missing for a long time, and Suzaku has long since left Huqi Mountain. And as the ghost king where the center of gravity of the Ghost King Sect is located, it is completely unexpected and uncaring and weird, the Ghost King Sect is really in a mess, if it weren't for the strict rules of the Demon Sect, everyone was afraid of punishment and didn't dare to flee privately, otherwise it was not impossible for this Fox Qi Mountain to really become an empty mountain.
The ghost has a high status in the Ghost King Sect, although he is calm and cold, but he treats ordinary Ghost King Sect disciples, but he has never bullied them, and the disciples of the Ghost King Sect secretly respect this taciturn deputy sect master. At this time
At this moment, when they are in danger, they suddenly see the ghost calendar, which is like a life-saving straw in the snow, how not to make them, who are immersed in fear and unable to extricate themselves, ecstatic.
Listening to the surrounding disciples competing with each other, Ghost Li silently lowered his head, stretched out his hand and gently touched his chest, and the Qiankun reincarnation disc passed through the black cloth, faintly exuding a faint warm atmosphere.
"That's enough!" he said coldly.
The surrounding disciples of the Ghost King Sect were stunned.
Ghost Li silently pushed away those disciples of the Ghost King Sect with his hand and walked towards the belly of the mountain.
Someone shouted loudly: "Deputy Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master, don't even you care about us?"
The ghostly body stopped for a moment, and then only heard his low and suppressed voice say slowly: "It's been ten years, I can't save Baguio even if I try my best, I don't even look down on myself, how can I save others......
He walked on, and from behind him he looked a little desolate, completely lacking the youthful vigor he should have at the moment. The disciples of the Ghost King Sect behind him looked at each other, each with a face like ashes, and despair like cháo water, surging from all directions in the unknown, covering them up.
Ghost Li walked into the mountainside road, didn't take two steps, and suddenly the monkey Xiao Gray, who had been lying on his shoulder, suddenly shook his monkey body, and screamed "squeak!", but the person stood up, and at the same time, the three eyes on his face were faintly filled with golden light, and he was like a great enemy.
Ghost Li frowned, reached out and hugged Xiao Ash, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Ash, what's wrong?"
Little Gray "squeak, squeak" screamed a few times, his expression was slightly nervous, and at the same time his arms waved to the sides, his ghostly gaze froze, and then he looked in the direction of Little Gray's finger, and his face gradually turned cold.
Where the little gray finger is, there are many strange and profound mysterious cracks on the original hard stone wall.
Ghost Li slowly put Ash back on his shoulder, and at the same time took another step and walked forward slowly. Xiao Ash was lying on the shoulder of the ghost, his eyes were wide open, and he looked like a jǐng ti, carefully observing the surroundings. This Yongdao, which was originally full of people, only the figures of Ghost Li and Xiao Ash were at this moment, and all the disciples of the Ghost King Sect in Pingrì were gone.
The empty road, one fork after another, as the figure of the ghost calendar slowly marched, the mysterious cracks on the stone walls on both sides of the road became more and more dense and thick. A strange aura began to diffuse in the passages around the ghost calendar, as if invisibly, some monster was secretly opening its eyes and watching them.
There is a faint and looming bloody breath, floating in the empty corridor.
The pace of Ghost Li's walking is getting slower and slower, and his gaze is becoming deeper and sharper as he looks from one crack to another, here, something is indeed happening!
He stopped suddenly, as if he remembered something, and his face turned pale in an instant, this strange and unknown power shrouded Huqi Mountain, and Baguio was still lying in the cold stone room stretched out of the road......
In a moment, the figure of the ghost calendar bounced out like lightning, and even made a sharp sound of breaking the sky in the quiet corridor, and disappeared at the end of the corridor in an instant.
Bang!
The heavy sound of the stone door echoed in the corridor again, and Ghost Li stood anxiously at the door of the cold stone room, almost in the gap where the stone door had just opened to accommodate one person, and he had already rushed in.
The light white sè smoke still emanated from the cold stone platform, floating in the middle of the stone room, and a green sè figure, with a faint and quiet smile, was still lying there quietly.
Ghost Li stood silently at the door, and after half a sound, Fang let out a long breath, and the nervous expression on his face slowly calmed down.
He looked at Baguio for a while, then slowly walked up, came to the side of the cold stone platform, looked at this beautiful woman's beautiful face that was still the same as it was back then, and said softly: "I'm back, Baguio." ”
There was no answer, but there was a cold silence that answered him, the corners of Ghost Li's mouth moved slightly, and a trace of sadness flashed in the depths of his eyes.
He sat down next to the cold stone platform, looked around, and found that this cold stone room was somehow different from the cracks in the corridors outside, and the surrounding stone walls were actually intact, and there was not a single crack.
Ghost Li frowned slightly, and there was a hint of incomprehension in his eyes, but at this moment he didn't seem to be in the mood to delve into anything, and soon, his attention and gaze were focused on Baguio lying on the cold stone platform. Reaching out and slowly taking out a black cloth wrapped in something from his arms, he slowly untied the black cloth, revealing the gentle Qiankun reincarnation disk, and the soft brilliance of the white sè radiated out, skimming Baguio's slightly pale face.
"Baguio ......," Oni Li called softly.
Just before he could continue to say something, suddenly a cold and majestic voice came from the stone door at the entrance of the stone room behind him.
"Wait!"
Oni Li frowned, turned and looked at the door.
I saw the ghost king standing at the stone gate with his hands in his hands, his eyes were as sharp as knives, staring at the Qiankun reincarnation disk in the hand of the ghost calendar, and said coldly: "What is it in your hand?"
