Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty-First The People in the Painting
The method of refining Qi originated from the five elements and was left by overseas real immortals in ancient times. Therefore, it influenced the practice of the elixirs in later generations and promoted it. It can be said to be the oldest method of cultivation. Until the first time of the Ghost Kingdom in chaos, the new generation of ghost mother Luo Jiuyin swept the world with demon soldiers under his command, and the people who refining Qi in the world suffered a catastrophe.
After this disaster, Qi refining will not exist. Only a few people are proficient in Qi refining methods in time, and these people are all disheartened because of this disaster and disappear. Of course, there is one other person, and this person is Li You, the Taoist Master Youyou who made the first step in "cultivation".
Li You was proficient in the method of refining Qi, and later obtained the memory of the "Record Dharma Apocalypse" in the world's life. He realized the true meaning of refining Qi and brought the five elements of Qi to its extreme. The five-way "Five Elements Sword Technique" he left behind in the later generations was also from this. By the way, Taoist Master Youyou did not have the intention of establishing a sect in his mind at this time. What made him change his mind?
Don't worry, we will mention it later.
Returning to the book, let’s talk about the reason why Shisheng suddenly realized the sudden enlightenment in his heart because of this point. Perhaps he had really decided everything in the dark. The Taoist Dharma he had practiced turned out to be inseparable from himself. At this time, after seeing Taoist Master Youyou truly realized the power that belonged to him, Shisheng was extremely excited. He understood that he had once again witnessed the cause and effect of history and once again confirmed that this "has long been destined".
After comprehension of the ultimate of "Qi Refining", Taoist Master Youyou finally found the best way to display his spiritual power. At that moment, five holy swords turned into five-colored meteors and soared into the sky, shattering all the long noses of the monster. In the night, the frost, snow, sparks, dust and bright dust danced with the wind. The scene was spectacular and tight.
Perhaps the elephant demon had already suffered a severe injury, but after seeing that he had succeeded with just one blow, Taoist Master Youyou couldn't help but curl upwards. Then, he looked at his hands again. This was power. Now he finally had the power to save his lover!
So, how could he not be happy in his heart? In addition to being excited, Luo Jiumei's face came to his mind, and every frown and smiled. It hurts Master Youyou's heart, but this is also the motivation. Thinking of this, Master Youyou suddenly rushed into the air with his feet. Facing the elephant demon who screamed repeatedly, Master Youyou yelled with tears in his eyes: "Jiu'er! Did you see it?! I won't give up. Soon, I will rescue you from that cold place. Before that, you can wait for me safely!!"
As he spoke, Taoist Master Youyou pulled out the "Nine-Pearl Random Stars" from the back of his neck, and drew a circle in the void with his left hand, and a white light flashed by his right hand. The Nine-Pearl Random Stars were mixed with Taoist Master Youyou's spiritual power and pulled it on the head that looked like a demon hill, and heard a loud noise. The head of the demon's head was separated from his body, and before the huge elephant head could fall to the ground. Taoist Master Youyou pinched a magic trick, and five swords shot in the air, shattering the head.
The light soared into the sky, Taoist Master Youyou landed on the ground, facing his back to the elephant demon corpse in the light without saying a word, and he didn't know that, at the same time, in a city hall filled with yin energy in Changbai Mountain, a one-armed woman trembled all over and turned to open her eyes in the darkness. The two eyes were glowing with blue and green light. She gritted her teeth and cursed: "Damn, these bed bugs can...Damn, damn, damn!!"
Although the woman's tone was sinister, her face was full of decline. The expression she showed inadvertently was exactly the same as Taoist Master Youyou who was far away.
However, Taoist Master Youyou was very strong. At this time, the elephant demon had been eliminated. He calmed down again. After waved his hand, five holy swords returned to his back. Then he came to Shisheng a few steps, and made a move towards him, saying, "Do you think I should thank you for this useful bean sprout?"
"You dead bread." Shisheng smiled bitterly, then grabbed his hand and stood up. After the battle, the two men of the same generation, one in the sky and the other in the soil had established a special friendship. After a smile, they did not say much.
Seeing the corpse of the elephant demon gradually weathered into smoke and dust, only a slender jade arm was left on the spot. At this moment, Monk Yan Qian's loud voice came from a distance: "Li You! Shisheng! Where are you?! Ah, Shao Peng, they are here. Hello, are you two okay?"
When Taoist Master Youyou saw that they were coming, he stretched his waist, then changed into his signature gangster expression and waved to them and said, "Of course it's okay, but you are late and you didn't catch up with the good show just now."
Monk Yan Qian and Shao Peng Wuguan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that they were fine, but the surroundings were desolate and defeated, which proved that a fierce battle was happening here just now. So after they stood up, they saw that they were both fine, so they quickly asked what had just happened.
After hearing what Shisheng and Li You said about the battle just now, the two of them were afraid and excited. It was great. It seemed that Shisheng was indeed the last opportunity brought by fate for them.
However, this place is not a place to stay for a long time. Although the elephant demon has been eliminated, the subsequent demon soldiers of the Nonggui Kingdom will come again. In order to avoid unnecessary battles, they left there first. Li You was the last one to leave. When he turned around, a new nameless tomb arched behind him, and the grave was buried with a woman's arm.
Taoist Youyou could not bear a trace of pretentiousness in the chaotic times. When the three of them arrived at a new place to settle down, the sky was already bright, the night had passed, and dawn was right in front of them. Now the three of them finally found a way to turn defeat into victory, but Shao Peng's witch official was meticulous in doing things, so he still won Li You's opinion and asked him whether he agreed to exchange the "Hunyuan Two Realms Pen" for the "opportunity" of Shisheng.
In response, Taoist Master Youyou certainly agreed. Although he didn't say it, he had already agreed and admired this boy from later generations. He sat in front of the bonfire and chewed the wild fruit in his hand while saying in a disdainful tone: "Let's listen to you, although this boy is useless, um, but it's not bad."
Shisheng also knew that Taoist Master Youyou was this kind of virtue, so he didn't take it to his heart, but just clasped his fists to thank him. When Shao Peng's witch official saw that he agreed, he said to him: "Okay. Since that's the case, then hand over the two worlds to Shisheng now."
As mentioned earlier, they had obtained two Hunyuan and Two Realms pens. One was in the hands of Shao Peng's witch official. Because Taoist Youyou was born obsessed with magic weapons, the other one was on him. Although Taoist Youyou was not forgiving people in his mouth, he was really grateful to Shisheng in his heart, so he continued to say: "Shao Peng, use my this one. Hello, boy, I can tell you. I'm not just to thank you, but just......"
While saying that, Taoist Master Youyou reached out to touch his arms. And Shisheng had long been accustomed to his awkwardness. He smiled at him and said, "I understand, this is an equivalent transaction, not a thank you gift to me...what is wrong with you?"
The reason why he was asking was that when Master Youyou's face changed suddenly. He saw him stutteringly touching his arms in a panic, and without saying a word, he jumped up and rushed towards the tent and flirted his luggage again. Shisheng had a vague premonition in his heart, and the young witch official frowned and said, "Li You..."
"Don't worry, don't worry!" Master Youyou seemed to be afraid of Shao Peng's seriousness and Monk Yan Qian's long-windedness. He smiled at the few people awkwardly, "That, it seems... it's really not lost. I really didn't lose it. I saw it last night, right! It must have fallen into the cave in the barren mountain. I'll get it back now. You can wait for me for a while."
There is no doubt that Taoist Master Youyou found that he had lost the two world pens. To know that the transaction was of great importance, Li You was in a bad mood, and was afraid that Shao Peng and Yan Qian would blame him. So after saying this, he jumped up as if he had no room for reaction from everyone and flew out in the direction of the barren mountain again. Seeing that his unreliable ancestor had actually lost such an important thing, Shisheng sighed at the time, but he thought that Taoist Master Youyou was not the same virtue as this? Shisheng was really afraid that he would cause another disaster when he went alone, so he bowed to the two and chased them out.
Seeing the figures of the two men getting farther and farther away, at this moment, Shao Peng's witch official couldn't help but smile bitterly and sighed: "I really can't do anything to him, alas."
"Forget it, I've been used to it for a long time." I saw Monk Yan Qian sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his hands folded in his mouth: "Amitabha."
Let’s talk about Taoist Master Youyou. He clearly remembered putting the pen in his arms in his arms, but when he was looking for it today, he could never find it again. He thought that the fierce battle last night was too selfless, so that the pen in his arms fell out of his arms. He also understood the importance of that thing. If it was obtained by the demon soldiers of the Ghost Kingdom, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So he and Shisheng accelerated their speed, and within a short while they returned to the battlefield last night. Because the battle last night was really fierce, the sky was already bright and there was a mess in front of them. The cave where the two of them lived last night was as empty as they were buried again by gravel and dust.
Looking at the blocked hole, Taoist Master Youyou grinned and was stunned. At the same time, he thought with a hilarious feeling: It's over, it's over, how many years can you dig with your hands?
Fortunately, Shi Sheng was alert, so he said to Taoist Master Youyou: "Don't worry, we fell into the cave last night. I saw that there were still bats, birds and birds in the cave, which shows that it was not a fatal hole. In addition to the hole we smashed, there should be other entrances."
"Ah yes." After hearing Shisheng's words, Taoist Master Youyou immediately said like a child: "You are right. If there is a channel, there must be a channel!"
After saying that, the two hurriedly searched for another cave entrance to the crypt on the mountain in private. Huang Tian paid off. In less than two moments, they really found a cave halfway up the mountain. Taoist Master Youyou was overjoyed and thought it must be this one? But just as he was about to drill into the cave, Shisheng suddenly grabbed him.
The reason why Shisheng stopped him was because he found something unusual and unusual in the shrub in front of the cave, which was a tiger's corpse.
Logically speaking, it is quite common for tigers and insects to appear in the wilderness, but at the moment Shisheng discovered the tiger's corpse, he suddenly recalled his previous experience in his heart.
A fierce tiger, a barren mountain, and a pen in two realms.
These factors seem insignificant, but when they are combined, Shisheng once again has a premonition that something extremely important is about to happen!
"What are you doing?" Master Youyou asked in confusion when he saw Shisheng stop him, "Are you scared again?"
Shisheng was about to speak, but at this moment, he heard a jingling sound of footsteps coming from the cave. Someone was stunned at the same time. To be cautious, the two hurriedly jumped deep and set a distance between the cave. At this moment, a burly man in animal skin emerged from the cave.
This man looked over fifties, but he was strong, with an iron arched waist and a big knife, and his hair was chaotic. He had a square face and was powerful without anger. He looked like a warrior of the hunting nation, and what he was holding was the "Hunyuan Two Realms Pen" left in the cave last night by Taoist Youyou.
Although the rash man was a mortal, he had learned a pair of good ears after hunting for many years. After leaving the cave, he heard a gust of wind rising rapidly in the distance, so he subconsciously looked at it and saw someone rising up in the air. He was born in the nomadic people. What he saw was limited. At this time, he saw someone flying in the sky, and immediately felt that it was a god who came down to earth, so he hurriedly knelt down and bowed.
And where are the gods who are the founder of Doumi Temple and the last generation of Doumi Temple?
Seeing that there was a mortal kneeling on the ground, and he was holding his treasure in his hand, Taoist Master Youyou rolled up his sleeves and rushed over to grab it. However, he didn't expect Shisheng to grab his wrist and took him to the top of the mountain while he was unprepared. After landing, Taoist Master Youyou said to Shisheng angrily: "What's wrong? Didn't you see that the man was holding a two-world pen in his hand? Don't you want it?"
Shisheng smiled bitterly, and at the same time he said in a mixed mood: "Of course I want it. But can you listen to my explanation?"
Yes, the reason why Shisheng did not rob the two world pens in the hands of the rash man was because he suddenly understood all this. If he could enter the reality map this time, he was thanks to the secret of the royal family that Qingshuang told them.
In the later Northern Kingdom Palace, there is still a temple to worship ancestors, and the murals in the temple are clues of the two worlds pens. According to the murals, the original leader of the northern country encountered a magic pen left by an immortal in a cave while hunting a tiger.
Shisheng never expected that the immortal painted on the mural was himself and his ancestor!
He entered the painting of the reality picture, and now he has really become the person in the painting.
That's right, that rash man must be the leader of the painting. In the future, he will unify all ethnic groups here and use this to create the original northern country!
"The last cause and the previous result, the last cause and the previous result." Shisheng repeatedly muttered this sentence, and it turned out that everything was really caused by his own "last cause"! It was precisely because of his relationship that the leader could get this magic pen and would draw today's opportunity on the wall and spread it to the future generations. Only then did Shisheng of later generations have the opportunity to learn about this news and find that cave.
Shisheng has always thought that there was no two world pen in the cave, probably taken away by the previous emperor of the Northern Kingdom or others, but until today, he realized that this was not the case.
After hearing Shisheng tell him why he could travel through time and space, Taoist Youyou was also shocked by the mystery of cause and effect in this time and space. Yes, if they had retrieved the two worlds of pens, how could the "Shisheng and the others" in later generations find this clue?
But it wouldn't work if you didn't take that money back, so after hearing Shisheng's explanation, Taoist Youyou said to him: "What should I do? Just give him the treasure for free?"
Shisheng shook his head and then said, "No, according to the history of my world, this leader has never separated from his pen from life to death. He should not have lived for a few years. After he dies, he will bury himself in this cave. I think you three have already pacified the troubled times by then. Since that's the case, why not place this pen in him first? Then take it when you use it in the future."
Taoist Master Youyou had already trusted Shisheng very much, so after listening to his words, he also felt that this was indeed a solution. Anyway, they couldn't use that sentence now, so it would be better to put it on the savage leader first, so he nodded and said nothing.
At this point, Shisheng's journey of knowing the truth of cause and effect and creating the reality of cause and effect is coming to an end.
However, he still had a doubt in his heart that he could not resolve. After leaving the barren mountain, the two returned to the camp where they were temporarily living. Shisheng told the story to Shao Peng Yanqian and the others. Shao Peng's witch official was very kind-hearted. After learning about Shisheng's suffering, he didn't say anything, and even gave him another two-world pen.
Holding the pen in his hand, Shisheng felt extremely complicated. How much did they pay for this pen? Now that he has worked hard to finally get it, does this mean that his troubled times will also come to an end?
Shisheng didn't know. Because it was a long time later, and it was so long that even the real traveler didn't know the future.
After receiving the two world pen, Shisheng did not feel too much emotion. Because he still had something to do, he immediately drew two more self-created talismans, conveying his memories of the Dharma-Revelation to Shao Peng Wuguan and Monk Yan Qian, using this to help them understand the true power.
After doing this, Shisheng had nothing to do. In the next time, he had to start thinking about how to return to the future world.
But fate is so wonderful. Just after he helped Monk Yan Qian and Shao Peng’s witch official realize the power, Shisheng suddenly saw that the air before the tent began to twist, and the familiar vortex appeared again!
"What's the matter?" Master Youyou saw something strange in front of him, so he hurriedly shouted: "What's this thing?"
"This should be my way home." Shisheng looked at the constantly twisting vortex and whispered: "I'm leaving."
Speaking of this, Shisheng thoughtfully opened the front of his body. When he left his mother last time, he was sucked into the vortex without any preparation. The last drop of blood melted in his arms. At this time, he saw the vortex appear again, so he took off his clothes and looked. Sure enough, there was still half a small nail-sized blood in his clothes.
Although this little blood is not enough, it may be his last chance to go home. Shisheng is excited. After walking for so long, is he finally going back?
Because the three trips were over, he never thought of where he could go except to go back.
Although he had just met these three myths, and although it was only a short day, Shisheng established a friendship with them. However, he was not a person from this era, and his era still had an important responsibility waiting for him.
So, when Shisheng saw the vortex appear, he folded his fists and said goodbye to the three of them. When the three of them saw that he was about to leave, they were a little reluctant to leave. Shao Peng's witch official knew the general and sent him off with courtesy. Shisheng finally did not tell the story of his descendant Qin Chongfu, because that did not belong to this era. Now he understands the cause and effect with the scriptures and knows that the past has passed. Even if he travels through time and space, it will be useless even if he tries to stop it.
The past has passed, and the future is coming.
All he can do is accept the past and welcome the coming future.
Shao Peng is Shao Peng. Shisheng cannot and has no right to change his decision. He has been kind and sticking to the right path all his life. After the assessment of troubled times, he may pay a price, but he will meet his beloved again, give up the fairy path, and get a happy ending of staying with his lover in Zhengtai, Huadu, in Zhengtai.
Monk Yan Qian patted him on the shoulder and said he would give him a blessing scripture before leaving. Shisheng refused because he understood that he wanted to listen to Monk Yan Qian's sutra, and Yan Qian's future disciples would listen to him. Because of Yan Qian's relationship, Yunlong's Buddhism was proud of the Central Plains. After Yu Qian understood the Dharma and Apocalypse, his illusion arts became more profound. After the three heroes pacified the troubled times, Monk Yan Qian founded Yunlong Temple to spread Buddhism to the world. He did good deeds throughout his life and translated many Buddhist scriptures for believers in the Central Plains. He also summarized the secret techniques of Buddhism in "The True Self" and "The Trace of the Divine Heavens".
But when Li Youshi was in a bad personality, the ancestor with a bad personality did not say goodbye, but just pulled Shisheng and left. Although he was usually rude, there was a hint of shyness in his personality. He didn't want to show his true feelings in front of his companions anymore, because he felt that it was embarrassing, so after he pulled Shisheng to a place where no one was, he grinned and said, "Hey, little brat, I'll tell you something when I'm leaving?"
Shisheng looked at his ancestor and smiled bitterly, "As with you, whatever you say is what you say."
"Bah." Taoist Master Youyou laughed and scolded: "What I want to say is that your kung fu is still too weak. Do you know if you practice hard after you go back?"
"My kung fu is still weak?" Seeing that the ancestor was still quarreling with him before leaving, Shisheng said with a laugh and cry: "But if I hadn't last night, how could you defeat that monster, let alone save your lover in the future."
"Who said that?" Master Youyou said angrily: "Do you think we can't do anything without you? Tell you, in fact, we didn't just run away before. Shao Peng was already studying a 'formula that can destroy everything and change everything', but......... It's just a concept. Do you understand, you little bean sprouts?"
What he said should be the "Eight Desolations" of later generations.
Shao Peng's witch official was proficient in formation art. He was the first to come up with the concept of this formation to fight against the ghost mother. How could he have thought that the formation he had come up with at that time was really realized by his descendants in later generations?
Fate is indeed wonderful.
Shisheng understood that Taoist Master Youyou was trying to squeeze him out, but now he was about to leave, so he didn't take it to heart. He just nodded and smiled, "Yes, you're right."
Seeing that Shisheng was different from him, Taoist Master Youyou cursed with some loss: "I'm bored, forget it, I won't talk to you anymore, I'll give it to you."
Speaking of this, Taoist Master Youyou took out something from his arms and threw it to Shisheng. Shisheng spread his palm and saw that it was a green bead. He came to his senses and said in surprise: "This is not... how can you......"
Yes, this bead was the last tear shed before the ghost mother Luo Jiuyin was occupied by maliciously. At this time, Shisheng saw that Taoist Master Youyou had handed over such an important thing to him, so he asked him at a loss.
Taoist Master Youyou waved his hand impatiently to Shisheng and said, "What mother-in-law and mother do, just take it for you. I heard that night. This thing is what you are looking for, so don't talk too much."
"But..." Shisheng still felt a little reluctant.
Taoist Master Youyou smiled at him and said, "It's nothing but a tear. What I want is not her tears, but her people. I told you before that I want to save her, and I will eventually rescue her!"
Taoist Master Youyou said with great enthusiasm. He was such a kind and kind gangster. Shisheng looked at him and nodded gratefully. He was very grateful to the heroic ancestor. Now he was about to leave, so Shisheng couldn't help asking the last doubt: "I will thank you for your friends of my era. I am leaving now. I have another thing I want to ask you, I wonder if you can answer."
Taoist Master Youyou shrugged, and then said to him impatiently: "Boy, do you think I am so idle? Tell me if you have anything to do."
