Chapter 166: The Glass Cup
Chapter 166: The Glass Cup
"Come in. The behind-the-scenes commander seemed to know, and there was no surprise, and he tidied up his appearance, and the whole person did not seem to have the slightest sign of crying.
As soon as the door was pushed, an old man hunched over and carrying a kerosene lamp walked out, unlike Ma Fangsheng, this old man hunched his waist because he was old and could no longer straighten his waist.
Until this moment, Qin Chen had time to carefully observe this old man, because he was hunched over, he couldn't see his original height, his face was full of age spots, wrinkles were all over, he had a small white beard on his chin, his eyes were cloudy, he didn't seem to have the slightest focus, he was wearing a very simple subordinate costume, and he couldn't tell that he was a powerhouse in the half-step rooftop realm at all.
The mastermind behind the scenes sorted out his appearance, in front of this old man, he didn't dare to be so arrogant, so he didn't half lie on the Taishi chair, but stood like this, quietly looking at this old man.
The old man stepped forward, and Qin Chen saw clearly that what he was holding in his hand was a kerosene lamp similar to a shell, clear kerosene, a wick lying on the pointed point, and the fire swayed, swaying with the old man's breathing.
Qin Chen's eyes narrowed, pointed to the kerosene lamp in the old man's hand, and asked Beidou, "What do you see what that kerosene lamp is?" For some reason, Qin Chen always had a very strange feeling.
Beidou, who was lying on the sofa squinting and drinking tea, showed a slit in the corner of his eyes, and muttered in his mouth, "What's so nice about a kerosene lamp?" But suddenly, Beidou jumped up from the sofa, ran to the big screen, put his face directly in front of the big screen, and muttered to himself, "It turned out to be this kind of baby, why does this place have it?"
Qin Chen asked curiously, "What the hell is this?" Listening to your tone, it seems to be some kind of amazing treasure?"
Beidou took a deep breath, "This thing is a glass cup." But it's very precious, Qin Chen, you have to get your hands on this thing, it may be helpful to you in the future. ”
"What kind of treasure is this?"
Beidou scratched his head and explained, "Have you heard of Emperor Shakyamuni?"
"Are you talking about the Buddha?" Qin Chen asked. If it is the Buddha, he is quite familiar with it, especially the part of suppressing the Monkey King, I have watched it several times.
"If you come to the Buddha?" Beidou was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "In the Buddha Gate." Those monks also called the Buddha Buddha, but almost no one knows this title except for the extremely old temples of Buddhism, how do you know? ”
Qin Chen showed a look of reminiscence, "Didn't you ever read my memories in the inheritance space because of forgetfulness?My previous life was a place in Shenzhou, in my hometown, the reputation of the Buddha is extremely loud, it can be said that women and children know it, but." I just don't know if I'll ever go back one day. ”
Beidou sighed, it was understood, Qin Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes, he was really playing the piano to the cow.
Beidou scratched his brow. He continued to explain: "Knowing too much about some things is very bad for you, since you have the story of the Buddha in your previous life, then you also know that this Buddha is the most powerful person in the Three Realms. No one can compare to him. ”
Qin Chen nodded, he had always had this feeling when he listened to this story when he was a child.
Beidou continued: "I can only tell you. If the Buddha once lived in Lingshan for a period of time, at the top of Lingshan, in the big thunder sound temple, there is a sesame oil hall, which stores a large amount of clear oil, the lights are bright every night, and the clear oil is burned is this glazed cup, three thousand glazed cups, three thousand lives, this is a good story of that era. ”
"You mean there are three thousand glass bowls? And that's not very precious. "No matter what it is, it must abide by the principle that rare things are precious, and since there are three thousand glass cups, it doesn't seem so precious.
Beidou looked at Qin Chen with a look of hatred for iron and steel, "What do you know?" I'm talking about when the Buddha was in charge of the Three Realms, the Great Leiyin Temple at that time had long since ceased to exist, and the three thousand glazed cups naturally didn't exist. ”
After speaking, he knocked Qin Chen's forehead hard, but Qin Chen could see that this guy was obviously venting his personal anger, so he didn't take it to heart.
"Then what is the purpose of this glass cup?" Qin Chen asked the key.
Beidou clasped his hands around his waist, sat on Qin Chen's head, and said: "Not to mention anything else, the treasures of the Great Lei Yin Temple alone are enough to make people crazy to rob, this is a real ancient thing, extremely precious, this refining method will definitely make today's refining masters not hesitate to work for you, through this thing, you can understand the ancient time formation, refining, prohibition, and so on, and the collection value is extremely great." ”
Qin Chen rolled his eyes, the collection value? If such an old antique was collected in the previous life, the collection value would definitely be extremely high, but if he was in the Xianling Continent, could he just take it out and observe it every day.
"Of course, not only that, the glass cup itself is also an extremely valuable treasure, this old man's practice at this time is also one of them, according to legend, as long as you put a trace of your soul into the wick, and then pour clear oil, ignite, as long as the fire is not extinguished, then even if there is only one breath left, will hang this breath. The glass jar is not clear oil, so it burns relatively quickly, but what makes me wonder why he knows this method, knowing that this effect is only for those of us who have lived for countless years."
Qin Chen automatically filtered out the words behind Beidou, but looked at this inconspicuous glass cup with fiery eyes, this is a treasure that can prolong life, how can he not be blushing.
Qin Chen swore that he must obtain this thing, this is not for himself, after all, this kind of thing is prepared, and sooner or later, he will return to Shenzhou, and his father is already in his sixties, Qin Chen is very afraid that when he goes back, he will already be a person, at that time, even if he can live forever?
Suddenly, Qin Chen frowned, as if he remembered the information about this glass cup.
In "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong and his party encountered a tiger spirit, which led to the Yellow Wind Monster, Tang Seng was captured, Sun Wukong went to save people, but was blinded by the Yellow Wind Monster using a wasp. Later, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie met the eyes that became the farmer protector Garan, healed the eyes, invited Lingji Bodhisattva, and subdued the Yellow Wind Monster.
This Yellow Wind Monster was originally a yellow-haired sable rat at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, because he stole the clear oil in the glass jar, he was afraid of being caught by King Kong, so he ran to Huangfengling to occupy the mountain as the king. The Yellow Wind Monster is holding a three-strand steel fork, with vast magical powers and boundless mana. The yellow wind blowing out was even more invincible, and the junior Lingji Bodhisattva submitted with a flying dragon staff.
This story Qin Chen is familiar with, he couldn't remember it just now, but now a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, but he remembered it all.
A rat who has attained the Tao can fight with the Monkey King with just one glass cup, which shows the power of this glass cup.
When Qin Chen told this story to Beidou, Qin Chen swore that he would never forget Beidou's laughter for the rest of his life. After many years, whenever Qin Chen thought of this, he would say from the bottom of his heart: Mr. Wu Chengen has misled future generations for countless years.
When Qin Chen was discussing inside, the conversation outside was already over. To be honest, neither of them said anything.
In the end, the old man just dropped a sentence lightly, "The old man doesn't have much longevity." But everything has been done, Zhang Liang, I hope what you said is true. Qin Chen touched his chin. It turned out that this person's name was Zhang Liang.
The behind-the-scenes commander snorted coldly and said lightly: "I, Zhang Liang, said yes, Venerable Seven Swords, you have been worshipping in my Zhang family for many years, you should know the strangeness of that place, didn't you and my grandfather just go in once, I know about this." ”
The Seven Swords Venerable glanced at Zhang Liang, "If it weren't for the old man knowing, do you think I would have agreed to your plan in the first place?"
After speaking, he didn't wait for Zhang Liang to speak, and walked out alone.
Zhang Liang slapped the fan in his hand and looked at the door coldly, "Old horseman, if I didn't want to cause trouble, I would have killed you a long time ago, but looking at your appearance, you won't live long, even if you enter that place at that time." ”
Qin Chen's eyes lit up, it seems that this Zhang Liang doesn't know about the glass cup, otherwise, according to the kerosene in the glass cup, it can be seen how much time this Seven Swords Venerable has to live, Garuda Jade Pendant, the glass cup, Qin Chen found that the end of the whole thing, that place, seems to have a certain relationship with Buddhism, it seems that the glass cup is what the Seven Swords Venerable got from there.
Looking at Zhang Liang coldly, and then looking outside the house, Qin Chen asked Beidou to take him out, following closely with this Seven Swords Venerable.
Judging from the demeanor of the conversation between the Seven Swords Venerable and Zhang Liang, this Zhang Liang must be a cultivator of the half-step Tiantai Realm, and from the Tiantai Realm, it seems that he has pierced that layer of paper, and he can break through at any time to attract the Purple Thunder Tribulation, but this has not broken through, Qin Chen guessed that on the one hand, it is to accumulate profundity, and on the other hand, there should be no complete certainty. After all, Qin Chen's poverty in this Qingyan City is obvious to all.
The two of them were also half-step Tiantai Realm, and Qin Chen finally followed this Seven Swords Venerable.
After all, this Zhang Liang is the son of an elder, and he must be proficient in martial arts that are not weak, and this Seven Swords Venerable, if he didn't have a glass cup, I'm afraid he would have turned into dust long ago, and the breath on his body has weakened to the extreme, and Qin Chen understands this truth.
Moreover, this glass cup, Qin Chen is determined to get it, he doesn't want to cause unnecessary changes.
Coming out of the study, Qin Chen hid in the Little Big Dipper Star Domain, following the Seven Swords Venerable all the way, maintaining a distance that was neither far nor entering.
Watching the Seven Swords Venerable turn around, he walked into a secluded and secluded courtyard in this mansion, rockeries, waterfalls, Qin Chen even saw a flower garden, in this underground without sunlight, the essence of this elder's house is fully displayed here.
The Venerable Seven Swords didn't even look at this flowerbed, he walked straight into his room, closed the door, sat on a futon, and quietly looked at the glass cup in his hand, with a look of remembrance on his face, and let out some sighs, I don't know if he was sighing for people, or sighing for time, or both.
I still remember that year, young and frivolous, with the old master into that strange existence, as a result of which they were seriously injured, before they left, they did find this kerosene lamp, although it was inconspicuous, but he was sent back by a ghost.
After coming out, he was seriously injured and was not allowed to break through to the Tiantai realm for the rest of his life.
And because the old master was responsible for the head of the family, he finally had to forcibly recover his injuries with secret techniques, and broke through to the Tiantai realm in one fell swoop, but he only lived for thirty years before returning to the west.
In order to repay his kindness, when the Zhang family was in turmoil, he killed several strong enemies in one fell swoop and retained the status of the Zhang family. This treatment is that until now, he is still serving as the worship of the Zhang family.
I have watched the Zhang family grow up from generation to generation, but time has passed, time has left a white head, I am still a half-step Tiantai realm cultivator, the original injury has not healed, if it wasn't for a whim, I'm afraid I am now an elder in Qingyan City, right?
But time can never go back, regret is no longer necessary, and life is coming to an end. But I didn't want to end like this, and the fear of death overcame everything, so I set my goal on that existence.
But half of the jade pendant has been on the head of the family, and the other is on Chong'er's body, and Chong'er has already left Zhang's mansion, and there is nothing he can do.
At that time, he had already entered the magic barrier, so when Zhang Liang came to find him and promised that he would definitely take him into that strange existence, he agreed with a mouthful. There was no hesitation. I clearly remember the look in Zhang Liang's eyes when he came to find him that dark night, it was the eyes that fixed him, and he understood it at the beginning. But he couldn't extricate himself.
Zhang Chong's child grew up with his own eyes, with outstanding talent, not arrogant or impatient, and friendly to others. With the demeanor of the head of the family, he is considered to be the most likely person to become a great elder, and he can be said to have grown up on his own. His martial arts skills were basically instructed by me, but at that time, I made a move.
I can't forget, and I will never forget, the heartfelt smile he had when he saw me outside.
I can't forget, I won't forget, for the rest of my life, his hesitation when he was attacked by himself.
I can't forget, I won't forget, the look in his eyes before he died.
Every time I think of this look, my heart is a pain, I can't sleep every night, as soon as I close my eyes, that look appears in front of my eyes, I haven't slept once for three years, I rely on meditation to spend.
Conscience was condemned, but at that time, he had already entered the demon barrier, and when he was dying, he reacted, but it was too late, and he could only secretly protect the two children, and the only compensation he could do was this.
Before he died, he took out this kerosene lamp, poured kerosene, drew out a trace of his soul, lit a fire, and let everything dissipate, wanting to eliminate his sins, but he didn't expect to survive, and he made people! The method of longevity has always been in his hands, but he didn't realize it.
Two lines of turbid tears dripped down his dry cheeks in the glass cup, and the Seven Swords Venerable seemed to cry and laugh, "Chong'er, it's me, it was I who killed you, do you know that I live in regret every day, why, why was I fascinated by longevity at the beginning, you are what I watched grow up, I have always treated you as my own child, but I betrayed you." ”
"Now, even if I get immortality, my conscience is already dead at the moment I betrayed you, Chong'er, don't worry, as soon as the head of the family comes back, I will tell the truth, and I will always take care of the two children, Yiming and Lulu. ”
"I know that this can't atone for my sins, but this is the only thing I can do, Chong'er, when this thing is over, I will extinguish the wick, Chong'er, I hope that when I get to the underworld, I can go down to the legendary eighteen layers of hell to atone for my sins, Chong'er, Chong'er"
The Seven Swords Venerable's voice became lower and lower, but it called out to Chong'er over and over again.
Qin Chen sighed in the Little Big Dipper Star Domain and asked Beidou to take him back, here, Qin Chen only saw an old man who was tortured by his own sins, and this kind of punishment was enough.
I really can't do it!
If so, why did you bother in the first place?
Walking out of the Little Big Dipper Star Domain, Qin Chen's whole body was shrouded in darkness, looking at the endless night from afar, not knowing what to say.
Behind the death of Zhang Yiming's parents, such a complex story is intertwined, jealousy, conspiracy, betrayal, remorse, desire, family affection, madness, shamelessness, crocheting the most complex picture in the world.
In the darkness of the night, there was a faint sigh.
Only by sighing can we express our feelings, the deceased is gone, the living are also dead, woo hoo lament!(To be continued......
