Chapter 71: The Seal (II)
The old man was kind-faced, between sixty or seventy years of age, not very tall, slightly chubby, and wore a half-new gray shirt, tied with strips of blue cloth around his waist, and did not look anything out of the ordinary. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info slight whiskers under the chin, and the hair is the same gray and yellow half, sparse, hair in the back of the head in a small bun, covered with a hand, with a short leaf branch casually hairpin. He stood at the back of the crowd, looked around, and saw that there was almost no place for the whole big house, more than 200 people were crowded, and the mood was enthusiastic and they were only staring at the front, so he also followed everyone's eyes to Hu Tan, who was standing at the front of the crowd, like an ordinary village old man who was attracted by the excitement of the restaurant.
Ku Rong silently sensed that this old man was by no means as ordinary as he appeared on the surface, and his aura was different from others. Through the crowd, he focused most of his attention on the old man, paying attention to the other party's heartbeat and breathing, and after a moment, he detected the pulse and heartbeat, and he lowered his guard, and the suspicion on his face gradually faded. Closing his eyes, he secretly thought that this was also a strange person, and he had cultivated the technique of concealment so profoundly, which had never been seen before in the rivers and lakes. This method of concealment is extremely clever, and I don't know which school it is, it can cover the breath as if it exists, if it is not, it is like a broken stream, and it almost blinds his perception. When he was outside the hospital before, he had a rather strange feeling, he couldn't feel his heartbeat and breathing at all, and he couldn't feel the heat of his body, and he was no different from a dead person, and if it weren't for the slight disturbance of the wind flow around his body when he moved, the enlightened person would hardly be aware of the existence of such a person.
As a martial arts practitioner who refines the five senses, Ku Rong has reached the realm of the enlightened person, and his own perception ability is far beyond the comprehension of people, coupled with the comprehension of the Tao, the operation of heaven and earth, and the life of all things have a keen and insight far beyond his peers.
Now, after careful examination, the old man's qi and blood operation finally showed traces, although it was still obscure, but he could roughly judge his physical strength, and it was not stronger than the strongest people on the field, which made Ku Rong slightly relieved. The physique is the foundation of the cultivation of the magic, whether a person is refining weapons or learning the law, whether it is a beast or a witch, he can't always bypass the cultivation of his own bloodline, which is a sign of the vitality of every living thing. Although a strong person does not necessarily have a deeper practice than a weak person, most of the time, qi and blood can be an important reference point. A person's practice entering the territory is always closely related to the operation of qi and blood, and the physique is too poor, and it is a big obstacle to learn advanced techniques. Moreover, if it becomes a shortcoming, it may also become a fatal point when the enemy attacks, so even if the rest of the people in the martial arts world who do not practice martial arts, when they advance to a certain level in the exercises, most of them will rebuild their foundation and improve their physique and basic martial arts.
The old man's heartbeat and pulse are hidden under the secret skill, extremely obscure, like three or two fluorescent lamps in the thick fog, if you change to someone else, I am afraid that he will really be hidden, but I met the bitter banyan, is already one of the peak of the contemporary martial arts, as soon as I pay attention, I will touch the old man's situation seven or eight points.
From his walking stride, turning his eyes and shaking his head, his chest rises and falls, and his clothes shake, all of which can be compared to the same conclusion, the old man's qi and blood are indeed not strong, so he slowly retracted his attention and re-enlarged the scope of monitoring. However, many years of experience in the rivers and lakes made him still a little more vigilant after all, the appearance of this old man is a sign, there is one of them, maybe there is a second, strange people and strange things in the rivers and lakes are endless, and no one dares to say that he knows everything about the world. Who knows if there's something lurking in the dark. What's more, there are quite strange places on this old man's body, it seems that there is an unknown cold aura coiled in his body, which is extremely difficult to capture, and it is extremely sluggish, and it makes people feel faintly uncomfortable. He quietly swapped his granddaughter to his left hand, vacated his right hand, and naturally drooped, turning into the most convenient posture.
The old man didn't seem to be aware that he had been investigated and touched by several times, standing behind the crowd with a smile, observing Hu Tan with interest, his expression was calm and calm, and his eyes fell on Hu Tan's facial features, facial expressions, hair color skin, raised arms and clenched fingers, looking carefully and attentively, like appreciating a treasure. No one noticed him, and everyone was nervous at the moment, staring at Hu Tan's movements, ready to compete for the last three spells.
Hu Tan's face was a little red, and he stood in front of the crowd and spoke, completely unaware that the master had secretly competed with people in just a short moment, and he didn't care that there was one more staring in the crowd. He was overjoyed at the moment, his energy was bright, and his voice was a little higher pitched than before. After selling more than a dozen talismans, his net worth is now three times richer than before, seven thousand taels of silver, which is a huge amount of money in the eyes of a young man who has suffered from hunger and cold since childhood, and it is really abundant. Holding the last three fixing runes in his fist, Xiao Tong was talking to the guests: "There are still the last three left, the uncles and uncles who want to buy them should hurry up, and the opportunity will not come again, next time I want to buy them, I am afraid that I will have to wait for a few years! It is still two hundred taels of silver, this is the twentieth one, I want to buy it!"
"I'll buy it!"
"I'm willing to pay three hundred and twenty taels! Can I pay a high price? Sell me this charm!"
"I want to buy it! I am willing to pay three hundred and fifty taels!" a young man who was blocked at the back of the crowd quoted a new high price, and under the emotion, his face was red, and he waved his hand and jumped a few times, hoping to be seen by Hu Tan. Seeing that there were several young men and women in the same uniform standing beside him, it seemed that several of them were disciples of the same sect.
"That uncle over there," Hu Tan pointed his hand to a sickly-looking man in the crowd. "Two hundred taels of silver, this spell is yours. The crowd lamented in unison.
The man who was targeted was obviously a little surprised, standing in the crowd, stunned for a while, before being dug out of the crowd by envious eyes. However, the look on his face was not as surprised as the person who had snatched the charm in front of him, but with obvious embarrassment and hesitation. When everyone saw that he was half-dressed, his face was dark, his hair was a little messy, and one hand was pressed on the placket, which seemed to be very tightly attached to the money bag inside, and their hearts were bright for a moment, and they immediately understood his hesitation. This man's family background is not very good, and his body is unstable, so he wants to buy a peace rune to relieve his suffering, but the money on his body is not easy to come by, so at this time, he began to hesitate again, and he was not willing to spend two hundred taels of silver to buy a talisman to cure his illness. Suddenly, the people with lively minds shouted one after another: "This brother, let's have a discussion? Seeing that your complexion is still good, and your body is a little uncomfortable, in fact, please go to a good man and probably be cured, it is really a waste to use this charm, why don't you buy the charm, and I will buy it from you?" I am willing to exchange it with you for two hundred and fifty taels. ”
"What's the matter! Two hundred and fifty taels are too embarrassing for you to mention? This brother, I will pay three hundred and twenty taels, and the price is very fair! You can sell it to me. ”
Everyone increased the price one after another, and soon someone mentioned three hundred and seventy taels.
The man's heart moved when he heard this, the rich woman had also bought two from others with so much money, and Hu Tan did not stop it. His money was indeed hard to come by, and because of his illness, the trivial matters of the family had become more complicated recently, and there were many places to use the money, so he was so tight on the money. If he can earn 170 taels of silver as soon as he changes hands, it will be a surprise to him, and maybe he will be able to solve all the troubles of the family. It's just that reselling it in front of Hu Tan in this way is really contrary to his own code of conduct, making him feel like a villain who is bent on profit. Under the dilemma, it was difficult to decide, so he looked at Hu Tan, wanting to see Hu Tan's attitude, but saw Hu Tan's relaxed face, smiled and listened to everyone's price increase, and he didn't care about it, so he relaxed for a while. It seems that this kid has a big heart, and he doesn't care about these trivial things, this thought has just been put down, and another question involuntarily pops up: "This kid seems to be happy to see it, he is encouraging me to change my hands for money?" By the way, many people were raising their hands before, and I hesitated in my heart, and my hands were only half raised, and they were inconspicuous in the crowd, how could he hit me?" With doubts, he looked at Hu Tan more carefully, hoping to see some clues.
Hu Tan noticed his gaze, and seemed to guess the doubts in his heart, nodded at him with a smile, and blinked his eyes. At this moment, the man's heart suddenly brightened: "Sure enough, he saw that I was not feeling well and needed help, so he specifically pointed at me!"
Hu Tan held the talisman and said, "This uncle, pay two hundred taels of silver, this talisman is yours, you can make your own decisions." This makes it clearer.
This man did not push with the crowd when the crowd was surging just now, although his face was sick, and his clothes were not good, he still stood like a javelin, not impatient, calm, and looked very backbone. Hu Tan felt that he was very right, so he hit him. Sure enough, this man did not show much joy after learning that he could easily earn a large sum of money, but was even more hesitant, obviously a person who attached great importance to ethics. For such a person who is still unwilling to defile himself in the face of adversity, Hu Tan does not hesitate to give help within his ability.
The man's eyes swelled with gratitude, he glanced at Hu Tan deeply, imprinted the image and appearance of the young man in his heart, and then said in a deep voice: "Little brother, I remember you, the people in distress have been helped by you, I dare not say thank you, we have met in the mountains and rivers." When you come to Tongzhou, please come to me. My surname is Bai, Bai Xianjun, and I live at the head of Tongzhou Sanfeng Bridge. Then he stepped forward, handed over the money, took the talisman and made a deal with the man who had bid three hundred and seventy taels, turned around, and walked straight out of the door, without looking back.
Hu Tan is very happy that he has made a good fate in the end. Although he didn't take the man's gratitude too seriously, and he didn't want to get anything in return from people, it was always a pleasure to do a good deed and be thanked from the bottom of his heart.
There are still two charms in his hand, Hu Tan pulled up another one, and looked at the crowd, wanting to see if there was anyone who could see it, "Twenty-one, two hundred taels of silver......"
"I, I, I!"
"Here, here, Hu Gongzi, here!" Hundreds of arms below waved at the same time, like a forest of strange pythons, even if there was no disease or disaster, he had no intention of buying the talisman, but he also shook his hand desperately at this time. Everyone saw the man's affairs just now, and when he grabbed a charm, it was more than a hundred taels of silver in an instant, who would think that he had more silver?
The gray-clothed old man at the back of the crowd had his eyes flashing, looked at it for a while, and then raised his arms with interest and shook with everyone.
Ku Rong's heart froze, he never relaxed his surveillance of the old man, and felt that the moment the old man raised his hand, the cold aura that lingered on his body suddenly became intense, just like a ball of originally solidified ink, suddenly submerged in water, and the ink color was soaked. The breath faintly penetrated through the body and expanded in a circle, as if there were signs of turning from intangible to qualitative, and breaking out of the barrier from his body, this is not a common means in the rivers and lakes, and the expression of the enlightened person immediately became serious.
"Shhh
"Have you started to do it?" Ku Rong said secretly in his heart, he had no way to judge the origin of this old man at this time, the exercises used by this person were really strange, not martial arts, nor two beasts, it seemed to be stained with the side of the soul of Wu Zhu, but it was not complete, Ku Rong had walked the rivers and lakes for so long, but he had never met such an opponent. There was no time to think about it now, and when he saw that the gray mist was close to Hu Tan, he flicked his fingers, and an invisible force **** came out like an arrow, instantly penetrating into the gray gas.
"Hiss! hiss!" Hu Tan's head suddenly flashed with white light, and a faint wail came from the void, and a hazy gray gas suddenly showed its shape and suddenly dispersed, and then, a large cloud of white mist burst out of thin air, one after another, the cold air whistled four volumes, and the heat of the whole room was swept up at once, the water vaporized and snowed, and the four walls were frosted, almost in the blink of an eye, the whole room became snow-white from top to bottom.
Everyone was stunned by this sudden strange situation, and for a moment everyone stopped talking and all fell silent.
The old man was taken aback, and then his face sank. He didn't expect anyone to do anything to him here. Twisting his gray eyebrows and looking around, he couldn't find the location of the bitter banyan, so he snorted coldly, and suddenly his body was blurred, and he disappeared in place at once.
"What kind of means is this?!" Ku Rong was shocked in his heart, this person's technique was so secretive that he could completely avoid his perception under his nose, and his strength was far beyond his estimate. For the first time, Ku Rong felt that he relied too much on his past experience, so he hurriedly released all his perception and covered it with Hu Tan as the center, and soon, he found an old man standing in the air three feet above Hu Tan's head.
The old man's face was cold, and his eyes fell on the crowd below, apparently still looking for who had done it to him. Paradoxically, except for Ku Rong, none of the hundreds of people looking east and west below set their eyes on him, obviously completely unaware of his existence.
"Is this a human or a ghost?" the Enlightened One's heart sank slightly, and this thought involuntarily popped up. The body method is so weird, it is by no means passed down by the world, he can move freely within his perception area without being noticed, and the cold aura on his body has become thicker, and it has begun to affect people's mental perception, Ku Rong feels that his attention and perception range are rapidly decaying, and the situation is critical, and he can't help but think about it. Seeing that he was very close to Hu Tan, he could take the child's life in a breath, and he didn't want to immediately launch the momentum, "Boom!" With a sound of killing, the fierce killing intent instantly swarmed out from all directions, locking the old man, and stabbing him like a bush of countless guns and halberds.
"Presumptuous!" the hundreds of people in the hall heard the angry shout.
The snow and mist in the middle of the air continued to surge, and again rippled with layers of sparkling, like a candle flame lit and extinguished, and in just half a breath, it was lit up and extinguished several times, and then, the airspace was torn apart by the violent energy. And they all heard the sound of the loot tearing through the air like a cloth.
But the old man was gone again.
This time, the shock in Ku Rong's heart was indescribable, since he advanced to the Enlightened One, this was the first time that someone was able to escape under the lock of his powerful path, just now he called the killing power of the entire courtyard to encircle the enemy, every inch of this space was under his fingertips, not to mention a person, it was impossible for a tiny gnat to fly away from it, however, such an impossible thing happened, right under his nose!
This is a top master!
The strength is still above him!
The long body full of horror rose, where did the bitter banyan dare to keep his hand at this time, stretched forward with one palm and opened five fingers, and the five entrances between the breath were all opened, and the inner sense of the outside hooked the world, and the killing momentum was all triggered, and immediately, the mountains on the ground within a radius of more than ten miles echoed, the forest and the sea shook, the snow layer disintegrated, the wind and clouds in the sky moved, and the thunderous sound came from far and near, the mountain topography, the snow potential, the air potential, The entire Changshe county should be beams, walls, pillars and tiles, the momentum of the carriages and horses, and even the frost and cold that had just condensed in this room, all of them were controlled by him, and all of a sudden, the entire restaurant became a Shura killing array, and the monstrous killing machine and malice gathered towards this small three-room tile house regardless of the south, south, south, and northwest, such as the five mountains and three mountains with countless sharp rocks rushed together, and then spread out and rolled out, the tile house could not withstand this force, and for a time the ground collapsed, the roof was blown away, the beams were broken, the wall toppled down, and the three big houses were instantly razed to the ground, hundreds of people in the house, everyone suffered from it, regardless of men, women, old and young, martial arts or martial arts, weak or bold, all of them lost blood from their lips in an instant, and their eyes rolled and they fell to the ground.
This all-out effort has finally had an effect.
The old man staggered more than ten zhang in the air, and such a huge power of heaven and earth filled and squeezed the space, even dust and mustard were difficult to hide. "Earthquake!" Ku Rong two fingers, the empty place shook, obviously an empty place, but it gave people a sense of sudden depression and collapse, Huang Zhong Julu reverberated with each other, for a time if there were tens of millions of catties of huge rocks there fierce collision and smashing, the wind and tide were all around, and the violent shock waves stirred up the dust and fog in the sky, making the ground begin to rumble and bumpy, and the sound spread dozens of miles away.
The old man's figure swayed and slowly blurred again. Ku Rong frowned, he couldn't control him like this, this old man was really a fierce opponent he had never met in his life. As he continued to investigate with bated breath, he suddenly felt an alarm, slid to the side, and a cluster of cyan flowing fire passed quickly and incoherently from his shoulder.
None of his body or clothes came into contact with the flames, but the Enlightened One still felt a strong sense of discouragement surging up in his heart, which made him suddenly feel tired and war-weary, and he wanted to stop there, and let his hands be captured and slaughtered. Moreover, the perception power that could be maintained at half a mile before had decreased sharply again, and he could only probe two hundred steps away, and he knew that he had been affected by the other party's technique.
At this time, he finally understood the way of the other party's exercises, this is a master who refines the way of death qi, no wonder he can hide his breath so vaguely. As far as Ku Rong knows, the only person in the world who has achieved great success in this way is the Rong family, and this person has cultivated so deeply that he must not be a nameless person, but how could the senior master of the Rong family suddenly come to embarrass Hu Tan? Ku Rong turned a few thoughts in an instant, but it was difficult to come up with an answer. Thinking in his heart, the movements of his hands did not stop, and he turned around and retreated several times like a cloud, and in an instant, he was far away from the range of influence of the cyan flowing fire. In the eyes of outsiders, it looks almost like a ghost. However, the previous negative emotions have not been dispelled, and the cold above the head suddenly becomes heavy, and a huge and cold mass of huge things actually rushes to the face.
"There is!" At this moment, Ku Rong sensed the faint air flow behind him, and without thinking about it, he immediately pointed his backhand and shouted: "Medium!" He actually had the intention of losing both. The old man's body was strange, it was really difficult to catch, and he only showed tiny traces when he made a move. After the first two shots, Ku Rong knew that it would be bad for him to fight for a long time, and those who refined the way of ghouls had strange methods, and they were so good at attacking and hiding, if they were not careful, they would be hated. Therefore, make a decision immediately, solve the problem quickly, and exchange injuries for injuries. He has Hu Tan's Tranquility Rune, which allows him to be injured and unharmed, and quickly recover his combat strength, although the opponent's strength surpasses him, but under the long-term disappearance, the outcome of the battle is still undecided.
In the duel of top masters, everything that is beneficial to you will be taken into account.
There was a muffled grunt behind him, and the gray rags flew away like butterfly feathers. The old man had already been tricked. It's just that Ku Rong knows that the other party is fine, and most of his strength has been avoided and distracted. For this blow, he also paid the price, not only was his eyesight robbed, but his whole body was also paralyzed, the cold object was on the top of the ground, although it was blocked by the force of the defense and cut off most of it, but still part of it hit the body, Ku Rong felt that he was much weaker in an instant, his heart beat faster, there was darkness in front of him, his qi and blood were stirred up in chaos, and there were many sharp needles and needles between his head and neck, and each thing carried a terrifying, desperate, and sad thought, this is a spell that acts on the soul, although the enlightened person is strong, but he can't stop it. Fortunately, he is extremely tenacious and has all five senses, although he is affected by some things, he does not immediately lose the ability to fight like ordinary people. Blinding his eyes, Ku Rong relied on touch and hearing to continue to judge the direction of the other party, at this time, he didn't even have time to chant the Ananda and body mantras, and controlled the potential path to divide into two parts, one around Hu Tan and his own body to the ground, layer by layer of protection, and the other was still full of whirlpools, everywhere. This old man is too difficult, and the technique is extremely powerful in subduing the mind, so he can't help but be more careful. Like all masters who are good at death, this opponent is not strong in qi and blood, and his stamina and protection are slightly weaker, but because of his mysterious movements, it is extremely difficult to hit, and this weakness is concealed.
"Seniors, why bother with a little child! Don't you feel like you've lost your identity?" Ku Rong shouted sharply, opening his tiger eyes, although his eyes couldn't see, but his awe-inspiring power was not damaged at all.
The fight between the two is a long story, but it actually only happened between the lightning and flint, from the old man appearing on the top of Hu Tan's head, to the bitter banyan triggering a ten-mile momentum, crashing down the restaurant, and fighting with him, the two of them were each injured, and it was just a few breaths, Hu Tan had just woken up and recited the ant armor spell, Qin Su was even more at a loss, and he didn't know what was going on.
After Ku Rong drank the words, he didn't expect any effect, and while circling the killing momentum and being careful and vigilant, he urged the qi and blood to adjust the meridians, and at the same time silently chanted the three-character order of the opening of the mountain, wanting to expel all the unfavorable states on his body as soon as possible, and at the same time secretly thinking about a way to get out.
This old man's strength is too strong, and now there are women and children around him, it is not a good opportunity to fight against others, it is really not good, today can only let a city first, this person's purpose is Hu Tan, as long as Hu Tan is taken out of danger first, don't let the child be harmed, it is considered a success.
Thinking like this, he didn't dare to let go of his guard, with the flow of qi and blood, the effect of the spell, the feeling of weakness on his body quickly subsided, the cold thorns on his head and face were all forced out of his body, and his eyes began to feel light dimly.
At this moment, he heard the old man's voice from a faint place: "I think you have misunderstood, I just want to find out about his exercises, and I have no ill will towards him." ”
The sound seems to be far and near, and when I first hear it, it seems to be very high and far away, but when I listen to it again, it seems to be close to my ears, making it impossible to judge the direction at all. Ku Rong was shocked again.
After a moment of silence, the old man said again: "It seems that I acted abruptly, you are the master of this baby, it is really rare, in a small Changshe County, you can actually meet an enlightened person." ”
Suddenly, if there was a breeze on his face, the black flakes in the eyes of the bitter banyan were all lifted, and he saw that the old man slowly showed his figure in front of him, and the two black smoke clouds that were still gathered on the shoulders of the old man on both sides were rapidly dissipating, judging from the dim reflection inside and the delicate pattern of the real shadow, it should have been a delicate shoulder armor. The black smoke cleared in an instant, and the old man stood in front of him, his expression gentle, and he no longer showed the slightest hint of hostility.
"Your exercises are a little familiar, and there is a shadow of the sword Tang Pingshan technique......
Hu Tan at this time the ant beetle spell has just covered the body, wrapping all the head, face and toes, not a single hair is exposed, and is about to continue to bless the four-piece protection method, when he heard the conversation between the two, he exercised the ant beetle, and vacated two large pieces in the eye sockets, revealing two eyes, like a monkey with black skin and white eye sockets, staring at the two curiously.
The old man and the master stood opposite each other, their lips twitching, obviously still talking to the master, but probably not wanting the content of the conversation to be heard by others, and began to use the method of binding sounds. Hu Tan pursed his lips and said in his heart: "It's great, it's like a big secret, I don't want to hear it." ”
Actually, of course, I want to hear it. He saw that the expression on the master's face first changed from wariness to relief, then to solemnity, then to astonishment, then to shock, and finally to a complex meaning mixed with respect and hesitation, and fell into contemplation, his heart was like a cat scratched, and he didn't know what the two of them said, which made the master show such a rich and varied expression.
was secretly speculating on the content of the conversation between the two, but suddenly saw the master's beckoning call: "Tan'er, come here." Hu Tan walked over obediently, and without waiting for the master's instructions, he kowtowed to the old man first: "Hello, uncle." ”
The old man was surprised, and quickly helped Hu Tan up, secretly saying that this doll was so well-behaved and polite, and he felt good in his heart for a while. Ku Rong couldn't cry and laughed, and corrected him: "This is not Uncle Shi, you should call him...... Uncle Ancestor. He glanced at the old man. Hu Tan immediately changed his words: "Uncle Shi." The old man smiled and agreed.
This old man seems to have an old friend with his master, and Hu Tan knows that as a junior disciple, it is inevitable to see people kowtow when he is introduced. Since you have to kowtow left and right, why not just take the initiative, instead of waiting for the master's instructions, it is better to come first, and you can still leave a good impression.
He had already planned to follow the master in the future, but whenever he met someone to talk to, he saw someone older than himself, and the weak crown below the crown was called senior brother and sister, and he would kowtow first above thirty, and call him Uncle Shi, after all, there is nothing wrong with it, so sensible, courteous, humble and good, the master's face is not a strong rise? If such a good apprentice is abused, and he does not teach wholeheartedly, the heavens and men will be angry, and the gods will blame.
There were chaotic thoughts in his heart, while listening to the master's words: "Uncle Shi has something to say to you, you listen carefully, if he asks, what do you say, don't hide anything." Hu Tan replied yes.
The old man asked him about his hometown, his parents, his experience in the past few years, some ordinary questions, and asked him about the exercises he practiced, Hu Tan answered them one by one, the old man's face was gentle, and he looked quite satisfied, he asked Hu Tan: "Child, tell Uncle Shi, do you want to be a hero, a hero who helps the poor and saves the common people?"
"Yes!" Hu Tan replied without hesitation.
At this moment, Ku Rong and the old man both smiled, and even Qin Su, who was listening quietly on the side, couldn't help but smile. On the way, she did not tell Hu Tan many chivalrous stories that she heard from her master, and whenever she talked about a chivalrous man who turned the tide in the midst of great expectations, defeated the stubborn enemy and returned triumphantly, and all the people came out to greet each other, grateful and kneeling down to thank him. Qin Su's mind was not delicate, and she didn't think that it might be that the young Hu Tan was too lonely, and she was often treated coldly by people and desperately wanted to be cared for, and she had all kinds of desires to give birth to such thoughts, she only felt a little proud, this little doll's chivalrous heart was all influenced by her.
The old man smiled: "You are still young now, you want to learn art from the master, if you want to be a hero, you still have to wait until you grow up." However, Uncle Shi will leave you a token, and in the future, maybe you will have the opportunity to become a hero. He stretched out his hand to Hu Tan and said softly, "Child, give me your arm." Hu Tan stretched out his right arm according to his words, and the old man rolled up his sleeves, and said: "Someone may come to you in the future, he will contact you with this token, and ...... when the time comes" While speaking, he saw the bright red mantra on Hu Tan's wrist at a glance, so he paused the conversation, "Huh, the spell of choking the river? This is the secret technique of the Yongzhou Palace family, how can you have it?" Hu Tan told him how he met Wuji Zen Master a few days ago and got his gift. The old man bowed his head and said silently: "I heard that the palace family is in decline, and there is no successor since the palace is proud, and it has been dormant and repaired in Yongzhou for a long time. It's just a little more than a hundred years, and another once-glorious Central Plains family has declined and disappeared, which is really a pity. With a sigh, he turned his head to Ku Rong and said, "But your apprentice has a very high luck, and at a young age, you can learn several incredible things." Ku Rong nodded slightly.
"I will leave a mark on you," said the old man again, "and you will perceive its benefits in the future." When you start walking the rivers and lakes in the future, maybe someone will contact you with this mark, and then you will know who I am and what I am looking for you today. You will have a choice, which path to choose, and then you can rely on your own heart, and it will not matter if you succeed or not, and the person will explain it to you at that time. ”
Hu Tan nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Shizu." The old man held his forearm and began to pour his luck in, Hu Tan saw that his tiger's mouth was slightly glowing, the contact place was warm and cool, and the forearm was very comfortable.
A small black mark appeared at Hu Tan's elbow, like a small circular stamp, Hu Tan was looking carefully, suddenly the old man's body shook, his face changed slightly, he shook his hand and quickly shook off Hu Tan's arm, and quickly retreated a few steps back vigilantly.
A thick black smoke erupted from Hu Tan's arm, and then quickly retracted, enveloping the child like a shell membrane in an instant.
"What is this? Where did you get this thing?!" the old man asked, his tone a little stern. Hu Tan was stunned, and suddenly remembered that this was the natal god that Guo Buyi left on him a few days ago, and it was said that he could resist the possession of those invisible monsters.
Without hesitation, he told the story of the encounter with the enemy a few days ago. Seeing that the old man seemed to be quite hostile to the general, he explained: "Uncle Guo is a good man, he was seriously injured in order to save me, if it weren't for him, maybe I would have died by now." ”
The old man frowned and pondered, and muttered in his mouth: "Guo Buyi, Guo Buyi, his surname is Guo, not his surname Rong?" for a long time, he said to Hu Tan noncommittally: "Whether a person is really good to you or not, you will know in the future." It's too early for you to make judgments now, and some things will take a long time before you understand people's hearts. This comment is obviously not kind to Guo Buyi.
Hu Tan was unhappy, but he didn't want to contradict him. Guo Buyi has done his best to support him all the way, and Hu Tan is extremely grateful to him. There was a fierce battle with the Luomen Sect Xie Protector in the canyon, and the modest man almost lost his life, Hu Tan thought to himself, he didn't have anything on his body that was worthy of someone else's sacrifice and plot, the Divine Talisman? Or the Linglong Zhen Nail? If it was these two things, if Guo Buyi had spoken and sought at that time, Hu Tan would have given it away without hesitation.
If someone is willing to sacrifice his life to help himself, then he can even give his life to him, not to mention these foreign things? This is the chivalrous way in Hu Tan's heart.
Silent, waiting for the old man to continue to finish laying the mark, Hu Tan thanked lightly: "Thank you, Uncle Ancestor." The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "I said bad things about the surname Guo, so you are unhappy, you are resentful, and you can't say thank you, but there will be a time when the water will come out in the future, and then you will understand what I said today, you are still young and do not understand people's hearts...... Oh, sometimes, a person does everything possible to be good to you, does not ask for anything in return, even his life can be sacrificed to you, so that you are grateful to him and love him, in fact, he doesn't really want to be good to you, just ask for something. When the truth is revealed, you will know that you have been calculated and used all along. Later, when he said this, his tone turned out to be quite gloomy, and he didn't know what he remembered from the past, and his heart was touched.
"Child, follow the master to learn the arts, and we will meet again in the future. ”
Shaking his head slightly, the figure of the old man slowly faded in place, and finally blurred.
"My surname is Ouyang, when someone asks you in the future, you can tell him that your guide is Ouyang Dao......" The voice was insignificant, and he suddenly flew far from near and far, and when he finished speaking, he was already outside the cloudy sky. (To be continued.) )
