Chapter 190: Fortune and Misfortune are impermanent
"What's going on, what's going on?" said the dragon?" the young man asked nonchalantly when he heard the old man's words.
The old man shook his head and said, "Actually, there is no evil dragon, it's just a folk rumor. However, under Beiping City, there is indeed a danger!"
"Oh?" asked the young man, who was interested, as he sat down with a precarious position, "What's the danger?"
The old man sighed and said, "What kind of danger do you say? Where Liu Bowen can personally take action, can the danger be small?" As he spoke, he also sat down beside the young man.
The young man knows that there is a saying in the world that "Zhuge Liang divides the world and dominates the country Liu Bowen", which means that Liu Bowen's ability is greater than Zhuge Liang.
Moreover, after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, Liu Bowen was ordered to run the world, cut off all the dragon veins, and caused the monks in the world to decrease sharply, and the Ming Dynasty sat firmly for hundreds of years.
It was not until modern times, after World War II, that the Chinese civilization was impacted by the world civilization, coupled with the incompetence and corruption of the rulers at that time, that the Ming Dynasty was finally overthrown.
Liu Bowen can do this, and his ability can be said to be thorough. The place where he can do it himself is naturally extraordinary.
After the old man sat down beside the young man, he sighed again before continuing: "Although there is no evil dragon under Beiping City, it is a place of extreme yin. Since ancient times, it has been known as 'Little Yin Cao'. It is said that there are many unjust ghosts in the underground, and there are countless evil ghosts, if they are released, I am afraid that the whole world will change greatly! It's just that the yin and yang are born, if it is dealt with, it is another feng shui treasure land, and Zhu Yuanzhang asked Liu Bowen to build the 'eight-armed Nezha City'. ”
"It's a pity that time has passed, and the Ming Dynasty was overthrown decades ago. It has been more than 60 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Because of the onslaught of 'science'. People don't believe in ghosts and gods. At that time, many of my Taoist predecessors stood on the wrong team, which led to being expelled and criticized. My monastic community also called it the 'Ten Years of Catastrophe'......"
"Since Liu Bowen cut the dragon vein, the number of monks in the world has decreased sharply. After ten years of catastrophe, there are even fewer cultivators. The rulers did not believe in ghosts and gods, and wantonly renovated Beiping City. Now that Liu Bowen's formation has been set up, he doesn't know which day it will cause a catastrophe!"
"Then what are we going to Beiping City for?" the boy said, rolling his eyes.
The old man sighed: "If you don't go, where can you go? Nowadays, there is not one in ten cultivators, and there are even fewer people who have achieved cultivation." If those unjust souls and evil spirits are allowed to escape, I am afraid that no one in the whole country will be spared. Only by taking advantage of the fact that today's formation is not completely ineffective. Let's talk about tinkering, hoping to be able to seal them completely. ”
"Is there a way?" the young man did not seem to be shocked, and his face was very calm.
The old man had long been accustomed to it, nodded and said, "There is a way, but the time has not yet come." ”
"What way, what time are you waiting?" asked the young man curiously.
The old man said: "After my deduction with the heads of the Maoshan Sect, the Quanzhen Sect and other factions, based on the Big Dipper Seven Star Array, I created the 'Anti-Big Dipper Seven Star Soul Sealing Blood Pact Great Array', which can attract the power of the stars and completely seal the souls underground. It's just that this formation needs the 'Seven Sons of the Big Dipper', that is, the people favored by Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and the Seven Stars of Shaking Light. It can also be called the reincarnation of the greedy wolf, the giant gate, Lucun, Wenqu, Lian Zhen, Wuqu, and the Seven Star Monarch of the Broken Army, with essence and blood as the contract. to be able to perform. ”
"Reincarnated body, are there really immortals in the world?" the young man's eyes lit up.
The old man shook his head and said: "I don't know if there are immortals as teachers, so I call those seven people the people favored by the Big Dipper. And even if it is born, only one star will fall, and it is rare for seven stars to be born at the same time. ”
"Now there?"
"That's right! If there are great changes in the world and the chaos of the Heavenly Dao, this is why the number of cultivators in my Dao is decreasing day by day, and it is difficult to achieve success. However, this is also a blessing and a curse, if it weren't for the chaos of the Heavenly Dao, I am afraid that the Seven Stars would not have been born together!"
The young man nodded thoughtfully, I am afraid that Liu Bowen could also think of this method back then, but he couldn't get together the seven stars, so there was nothing he could do. After thinking about it, he asked again, "Then why does Master still say that the time has not yet come? Isn't it true that all the Seven Stars have not been born yet?"
The old man nodded, then shook his head and said, "Whether all the Seven Stars were born or not, I don't know if I am a teacher. Since the chaos of the Heavenly Dao, the art of divination has also been affected, and it is difficult to be as refined as in ancient times. As a teacher, I can only calculate that the Seven Stars were born in the past few years, and the approximate location is a radius of hundreds of miles around Beiping City, and I can't do anything about the specific location and specific time. ”
The young man rolled his eyes and said, "Who said just now that he was the best in the world and knew everything?"
"Ahem...... the old man's face turned red, and then he pretended to be nothing, and said, "At least I've figured it out." The head of that Mao Mountain and the Quanzhen master only calculated that the Big Dipper Seven Stars would be born, and they couldn't even calculate the approximate location, and the time was up and down for fifty years, compared to them, Lao Dao's arithmetic is definitely the first in the world!"
The young man smiled, didn't argue with the old man, and continued to ask: "When we go to Beiping City, we are looking for this 'Big Dipper Seven'?"
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "It's okay, it's not." I agreed with Zhou Zhenren, the head of the Maoshan faction, Wang Zhenren, the head of the Quanzhen Sect, Zhang Zhenren, the head of the Zhengyi Sect, Liu Zhenren, the 'Guigu Descendant', Feng Zhenren, the 'Sitting Yama', and the contemporary 'Mai Shenxiang' Li Zhenren, and agreed that each person would find one star, and when the seven stars converged eighteen years later, the formation would be activated. It's just that now that the 'Eight-Armed Nezha City' formation is about to be broken, the 'Anti-Big Dipper Seven Star Soul Sealing Blood Pact Array' also needs to be arranged in advance. We are going to Beiping City to set up two formations in the 'shaking light' position. One is the 'Anti-Big Dipper Seven Stars Soul Sealing Blood Pact Great Array', and the other is the 'Evil Formation 'Attracting Evil Array', which leads the resentful qi under Beiping City to scatter and delay the time for it to erupt. ”
"......I see," the boy muttered.
The old man said again: "Our scattered cultivation can't compare to those big sects, I only have one disciple of you." And the 'Evil Array' that disperses the resentment in the underground of Beiping City also needs someone to be in charge, otherwise I am afraid that it will hurt the innocent. As the saying goes, 'if you have something to do, the disciple will serve his work', and after laying down the formation for the teacher, he will sit in the big formation. As for the task of finding the reincarnation of the 'broken army', it is up to you. You have to cultivate hard!"
"What?" said the boy, his eyes wide, "can you not look for it?" or let someone else find it. Didn't you say that there are a lot of people in the big faction, let them find it!"
The old man also blew his beard and glared: "Let them find me? Let them find me, where is Zhao Qingdu's face? Let me tell you Zhao Xuan, this 'reincarnation of the broken army', you have to find it, if you don't look for it, you have to find it for me!"
Zhao Xuan???!!!
......
The next day, the young Zhao Xuan followed the old man Zhao Qingdu on the road to Beiping, holding a red egg in his arms......
Twelve years later
In the small village of a small county town in the south of Beiping City, the young Zhao Xuan was still growing up, carrying a schoolbag with an egg in it, and waved goodbye to Zhao Qingdu.
"Master, I'm going to school in Beiping City, don't worry, I'll definitely find it for you. ”
"Get out!"
“...... Don't you say you're worried about me?"
"I'm worried about you? In the past few years, you have traveled more places than me, and you kid is worried about me? Don't think I don't know, you kid has secretly made a lot of money over the years, right?
“...... There was a card in the bedside table with the code for my birthday. ”
"You kid still have a birthday?"
"The day you picked me up. ”
"......" Zhao Qingdu was silent for a while, waved his hand and said, "I know, go, go!"
The young man Zhao Xuan smiled and turned to leave.
Four years later
It's still that compound.
The young Zhao Xuan was carrying a schoolbag, and there was still an egg in the schoolbag, standing in front of the door and shouting: "Master, I'm back, what kind of 'broken army' are you, I can be regarded as finding it for you." As he spoke, he opened the courtyard door.
In the courtyard, there was silence.
The young Zhao Xuan's face changed slightly, and the 'deduction technique' he had practiced since he was a child made him panic, and he hurriedly ran to the house.
As soon as I opened the door, there was a foul smell.
Indoors, Zhao Qingdu sat cross-legged on the ground, his white hair falling out, and his body was rotting.
Flies and maggots fill the room.
The young Zhao Xuan was stunned, silent for a while, did not cry, did not shout, and walked towards Zhao Qingdu's body without saying a word. It's not dirty and smelly, sitting in front of Zhao Qingdu, stunned.
I don't know how long it took, he lowered his head and found that Zhao Qingdu had a piece of paper with messy handwriting in front of his knee, and gently held it in his hand to check it.
“...... Zhao Xuanwu disciples, the seal in Beiping City is weakening more and more, and the effect time of the 'Triggering Array' is getting tighter and tighter. As a teacher, he was careless for a while, and when he was cultivating, he was hit by evil qi. After trying his best to disperse the evil qi, it is no longer possible to support it. I hope that when you come back, you can continue to sit in the Formation of Evil. Wait for the seven stars to gather two years later, and then preside over the 'Anti-Big Dipper Seven Stars Soul Sealing Blood Pact Great Array'. Be careful, remember, remember!"
The young Zhao Xuan looked at it in a daze, he knew that after the 'Triggering Array' was arranged, as long as the evil qi under Beiping City gathered to a certain extent, it would be launched independently. When the time comes, Zhao Qingdu needs to guide the evil qi to prevent it from hurting the innocent.
At first, the 'Triggering Array' was launched every two years, and then gradually reduced to one year. The last time the young Zhao Xuan left home, it was more than half a year ago, and at that time, the 'Triggering Array' had just been launched once. Why did it start again just over half a year later?
No wonder Master ended up like this...... When the Evil Formation is launched, the evil spirit is soaring, if you cultivate at that time, I am afraid that the immortals will not be able to escape their lives!
It's just that Master has always been cautious, and there was a foreshadowing before the 'Triggering Array' was launched, how could it become like this?
The young Zhao Xuan sat in a daze, and it was dark as soon as he sat down.
It was dark, he turned on the lamp, set up the mourning hall, and was expressionless from beginning to end, but the trace of grief in his eyes was difficult to hide.
After the mourning hall was arranged, he knelt in front of Zhao Qingdu's body, took the schoolbag that had been on his back, and took out the contents of the bag.
The first is the "blood egg", sixteen years have passed, and the "blood egg" has not changed at all. Immediately after, he pulled out a few more books.
I picked up a copy, put it in my hand, and flipped through it unconsciously. (To be continued......)
