Chapter 400 Bloody
The night is like water, with few stars and bright moon.
A faint silver glow shone silently.
Like pure velvet. Covering the entire world.
At the foot of the vast mountain, there is a dilapidated farm.
The old man in black robe stood silently in the small courtyard.
The stone table and square bench in front of him was empty, but several plates of exquisite snacks were placed, as well as a pot of tea with a delicate fragrance.
His eyes were half open and half closed, and he waited quietly without moving.
Suddenly a breeze blew by.
There was also a very light rustling sound, which seemed not to reach my ears.
The old man opened his eyes at this moment, and his expression instantly became extremely respectful.
Quietly, the entire courtyard seemed to be a little different.
It's like being isolated from the outside world, everything is silent and motionless.
Uh-huh...
The old man's eyes flashed without warning, and the surroundings strangely returned to normal, as if what he just felt was just a dream.
There was a blur of light and shadow next to the stone table, changing into various shapes as the night wind blew.
"This old slave has met the Lord."
The old man in black robe straightened his clothes and bowed to the ground.
"I'm already here, but he hasn't come yet?"
A disembodied voice sounded faintly, slowly coming from the distorted light and shadow.
The old man in black robe was silent for a moment, then turned to look outside the courtyard, "After seeing him that night, he made it clear that he would definitely come to see the Lord. Perhaps it was because of some delay that he was a little late. "
"Then wait a little longer. You can take advantage of this time to tell me the information you have collected."
The blurry figure kept swaying, like a candle flame changing its shape in the wind.
Time passed little by little.
The clouds gradually began to rise, blocking the watery moonlight and making the night darker and quieter.
Although he had slowed down his speech and spoke almost in detail, the old man in black robe finally stopped and poured out everything he knew.
During this process, he didn't know how many times he looked outside, but he never saw the figure that should have arrived long ago.
"Then let's do this for now."
The distorted light and shadow gradually faded away, revealing the slender and graceful woman inside.
She picked up the already cold tea and took a sip, with a faint smile on her face. "It seems that he won't come. He is really a bit unfriendly."
As she spoke, ripples appeared in a small space centered around her body.
The stone table in front of him, the stone bench under him, and the tea cup beside his hand all seem to be constantly switching back and forth between illusion and reality.
The old man in black robe looked panic-stricken and lowered his head to hide the turmoil in his heart.
"I'm a little curious about what you told him and whether he agreed."
"Or, you simply messed up the matter, but you still wanted to deceive me with a sense of luck."
She raised her head and stared at the low clouds under the night, waiting for the answer from the old man in black robe.
Plop!
The old man in black robe could no longer maintain his standing posture, and his knees softened and he knelt down immediately.
He suppressed the fear in his heart and tried to calm his trembling tone, "When I return to the Lord, I will follow your instructions and tell him about the Spirit God, Earth Immortal, Ling Zhen Son, and Xuan Mirage who has obtained the flesh and blood of the Great Witch. Patriarch.
He also told him that if he wanted to get out of this crisis situation, cooperation with the Lord would be the most appropriate choice..."
Speaking of this, the old man in black robe showed great confusion.
"He indeed agreed directly at that time, and repeatedly confirmed the time and place with the old slave, saying that he would never make fun of his own wealth and life. Even if there was a knife from the sky, he would definitely come to the appointment on time to meet with the Lord. Above.
In addition, the old slave also asked Shadow to guard around the mansion. If that person wanted to leave, he would naturally not be able to stop him, but he would definitely pass on the information as soon as possible.
But until nightfall today, everything was still normal. Except for practicing practice behind closed doors, there was no movement at all. "
She suddenly laughed and said slowly and calmly, "So, if there is no knife from the sky, he will not come, right?"
"It was in vain that I specially prepared a meeting gift for him. In the end, it turned out to be such a ridiculous result."
"My lord, forgive me, old slave..."
She waved her hand, and the old man in black robe suddenly stood still, unable to say another word.
"I don't blame you. After all, you are an old servant who has been with me for a long time. There is no need to doubt your loyalty."
"And in the past two days, you have been preparing for my arrival, and you have no more time and energy to keep an eye on him, otherwise this situation would not have happened."
As she spoke, a smile appeared on her face again, "However, if you take a step back and think about it, maybe he really has something to do, or even encountered some trouble, so he delayed coming to meet me, instead of deliberately breaking the rules." For my sake, let go of my doves.”
Uh-huh...
The mountainous pressure suddenly dissipated, and the old man in black robe regained his freedom.
He immediately said, "Old slave, I will go into the city to investigate right now. Even if I forcefully tie him up, I will still kidnap him to my master."
She nodded, "There should be disciples of the Spiritual Cult hidden in the city. If I appeared there, I might attract the attention of Lingzhenzi or even the Spiritual God, so I really need to trouble you to go over and take a look at what's going on. ."
"It's not necessary to just tie him up. After all, with the level of strength he has shown, you may not be his opponent, and you may very well be beaten to death."
The old man in black robe took the order and left.
She was left alone, sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, closing her eyes and falling into meditation.
Despite the change, her mood remained calm.
The more careful planning is required, the more likely it is that various fluctuations will occur.
These are all perfectly normal things.
It's nothing more than planning for the worst and working hard for the best. This is the case with everything in the world.
The clouds are getting thicker and the night wind is a little more moist.
The big raindrops fell quickly, connecting the whole world.
The footsteps came from far and near, penetrated the fine rain curtain and entered the small courtyard.
The old man in black robe looked pale and said in a complex tone, "He has run away, and even the whole family has disappeared without a trace. The shadows that were originally lurking around were disturbed, and no warning was found from the beginning to the end. ."
"oh?"
"Has even Shadow been affected mentally?"
She slowly stood up from the stone bench she had been sitting on for a long time, "In that case, I need to go and see for myself what the situation is."
A quarter of an hour later, the Hong family's old house.
Distorted light and shadow flow quietly, walking in the vast rain curtain.
"With such a pure ghost car's true meaning remaining, it's no wonder that the shadows will unknowingly disturb their mood and affect their spirits if they don't get close to here."
She sighed quietly and walked into a long corridor.
Stopping in front of an antique bedroom, she looked at the closed door and fell into a long silence.
There was a soft squeaking sound.
She pushed open the door and looked around.
Finally, I sat down on the neat and tidy bed.
"So that's the case. No wonder he is able to possess four kinds of true meaning and profound thoughts."
"The real reason once again exceeded my expectations. He turned out to be a Void Walker."
"And he is not an ordinary void walker. This kind of almost non-existent ripples has even been hidden from me."
"So, he did leave, but he didn't really leave."
"Then, I will stay still and wait for him to come back on his bed."
At the same time, the northern wasteland.
Gaizang poured a jar of strong wine into his mouth and slowly exhaled a hot breath.
"The great Zhou has discovered the true meaning of Suzaku, and the spies there have confirmed his death."
He looked down at the mysterious mirage warrior kneeling on one knee, with a ferocious smile on his face.
"This news comes at the right time. I have just accumulated the murderous intention in my heart to a boiling point, and I need a powerful enemy to pour it out."
"It's best if he is strong enough so that I won't be filled with hope only to be disappointed."
…………
……………………
Ximu's lair, dark stone palace.
Wei Tao's eyes were slightly closed, a look of pain flashed across his face.
With its body as the center, white light can be clearly seen swirling and flames rising.
There is even a faint smell of burnt smell that escapes from the body surface.
"With my chaotic and shapeless body, I can actually smell the faint aroma of barbecued meat."
"Nangong Suzaku, Yinghuo Huode, I am not the real form of Suzaku, so I do have a big weakness in tolerating the blazing heat. Even practicing horizontal skills can only alleviate it, but cannot completely ignore it."
After a long time, Wei Tao opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a hot breath.
Suddenly white light flashed and the flames skyrocketed.
It raised the heat by more than one level.
At this moment, the status bar quietly became void.
Name: Palm of the Great Sun
Progress: one hundred and ten.
Status: Breaking the limit for a while.
Description: Suzaku gradually grows, and fire virtue becomes clear again.
"Whether to consume a gold coin to increase the progress of the practice of the Palm of the Sun?"
Wei Tao silently watched the description of the Palm of the Sun, and for a long time he did not make up his mind to improve again.
On that moonlit and starry night, he had a conversation with the old man in black robe. Although the other party did not reveal too many details, he had already sensed the hidden danger of the coming storm.
The Earthly Immortal Spirit God, the Son of Lingzhen God, the leader of the Xuanmirage clan who might become a great witch, and the mysterious master of the black-robed old man, each of them is not an easy person.
And they all set their sights on his body.
So that means.
His current situation seemed dangerous.
In fact, it is not safe at all.
Therefore, we must not underestimate the enemy and must be treated with caution.
Therefore, Wei Tao immediately expended his energy to find out the hidden informants in Cangyuan City, and then arranged for Hong Sheng's family and Huang Jiaoyun to leave south.
He himself kept moving in the void, and then started a new round of improvement.
However, Wei Tao did not expect that after the Great Sun Divine Palm reached 100% of its peak level, his physical body seemed to be overwhelmed.
Especially after reaching the limit-breaking stage again, his tolerance for the blazing heat has reached its limit.
If you continue regardless, maybe your whole person will become a blazing torch.
When you find a problem, start solving it.
No matter what it is, it is the absolute truth that cannot be broken.
Wei Tao fell into deep thought, looking for a way to solve the problem.
Time passed little by little.
I don’t know how long it took.
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed out, dispelling the darkness in front of him.
"Why are you so obsessed with the idea of improving fire resistance?"
"The Xuanwu in the North Palace is the Rengui water, which corresponds to the Suzaku and Yinghuo fire virtues in the South."
"So after all the twists and turns, I have to use my old skills to solve the problem in the end. As the saying goes, be open to all rivers and balance and hedge. I should be in the middle. How can I let external things lead me by the nose?"
The thought of a turtle or a snake makes the sky and the earth widen in an instant.
Quietly, the status bar reappeared in front of me.
Wei Tao's mind moved slightly and he focused his gaze on the Xuanwu True Solution.
Name: Turtle and Snake crossing each other.
Progress: one thousand six hundred.
Status: Breaking the limit of 150 paragraphs.
Description: Xuanwu gradually emerges, and turtles and snakes become bright again.
"Whether to consume a gold coin in the status bar to increase the progress of turtle and snake cross cultivation."
Wei Tao did not hesitate and directly chose yes.
Quietly, a gold coin disappeared.
The mysterious aura begins to infuse the body, and dual changes in body and spirit follow.
boom! ! !
Suddenly darkness surged, and cold death descended.
The huge phantom, intertwined with turtles and snakes, slowly floated up behind Ziwei Tao.
A pair of scarlet eyes slowly opened, like two stars lighting up in the dark sky.
And as the changes began, he felt the long-lost sense of coolness.
It's like drinking a cold drink fresh from the refrigerator on a hot summer day.
the next period of time.
The gold coins disappeared one by one.
The turtle-snake cross began to climb upward.
Wei Tao invested thirty gold coins in one breath, pushing it to the 160th level.
The burning sensation has been reduced by half, and the rest is now within the tolerable range.
"Kan is water, Li is fire, water and fire are compatible, and yin and yang are in opposition."
Wei Tao gently exhaled a breath of turbid air and stopped before he could finish his thoughts.
He wants to continue and solve this problem once and for all.
He is even preparing to go one step further, using the compatibility of water and fire and the opposition of yin and yang brought by the true meaning of Suzaku Xuanwu, to take the Vajra Dharmakaya in the chaotic and formless realm a step further and touch the wonderful scenery of a higher level of physical body training.
However, the severe headache that appeared again forced him to stop and give up the idea of continuing to improve for the time being.
After several successive upgrades of the techniques, the true soul was finally stretched to its limit.
The True Spirit Soul must be strengthened and improved again in order to cope with the next challenge.
Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
After thinking silently for a moment, he decided not to do anything and not stop until he achieved his goal.
It means to close the door and practice asceticism.
Raise your strength to a level that is currently unreachable.
Only in this way can possible dangers be turned into opportunities, and all enemies who have offended him will kneel in front of him.
Eat all you can eat.
Everything that cannot be eaten must be torn into pieces and blasted.
Thinking of this, Wei Tao moved his eyes away from the status bar and looked at the faint white light shining in the scorched black marks.
Just do it when you think of it, without any hesitation.
Uh-huh!
A strand of spider silk slowly poked out.
The mysterious threads carried the distraction and quietly sank into the depths of the newly formed spider web.
A bright light suddenly flashed.
A distraction disappeared into the passage at this moment.
After going through the void once, Wei Tao was already familiar with it and was familiar with it.
Let the dark space wrap you up and follow the mysterious feeling until you plunge into the depths of the light at the end of the darkness.
Bang! ! !
A big lump bulged in his head.
It seemed like a hole had been opened.
Blood flowed down his forehead.
I couldn't even open my eyes.
At the same time, there were continuous heavy blows falling on him from all directions.
Before Wei Tao could adapt to the sudden change of light and darkness, he discovered that this body had been treated so cruelly.
He held his breath, feeling the long-lost swelling and pain. He immediately held his head in his hands and curled up his body to minimize the exposed area of his vitals.
Time flies.
After a moment, there was a clanging sound, and the man dropped the stick in his hand.
"You are lucky today. If there is a next time, and I see you taking care of Yin Yin's affairs again, I will beat you to death!"
The voice of a not too old man sounded, with a strong hint of threat.
The next moment, the young man will turn around and leave.
Wei Tao struggled to stand up at this moment.
He touched his chest with one hand and put the other behind his back.
There was blood dripping down the fingertips, dripping onto the ground.
"Yin Yin, who is it?"
Wei Tao spoke slowly, raised his head and looked around, an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
Whether it was the blood-stained short-sleeved pants or the various garbage piled on the ground, they all told him a fact.
That is the world where Ximu left her mark, and there are already various things that only appeared after the development of industry.
Although it was not as good as the various technologies before time travel, it still brought him considerable surprise, and even made him feel dazed for a moment.
"Xu Yao, how dare you pretend to be stupid."
"It seems that the beating was too light to make you feel that I didn't dare to take your life."
"Let me tell you the truth, in today's chaotic world, it is normal for one or two people to die. Even if you die in this garbage dump, only wild dogs will come to help you collect your body."
The young man smiled gloomily, walked forward slowly, raised his hand and slapped him down.
Snapped!
Click!
Two voices sounded at the same time.
There was also a stream of blood flying out instantly.
"you you……"
The young man covered his neck, his vision suddenly turning red.
Even his body instantly became trembling and cold.
Click!
Another flash of white light flashed.
He fell limply.
He sat slumped on the garbage heap, his lips moving and unable to speak.
"I was almost beaten to death as soon as I arrived."
"The more I think about it, the angrier it becomes. The more I take a step back, the more I feel I'm at a loss."
"If I don't get rid of you directly, my thoughts will not be smooth and my thoughts will not be clear. I can only say that you have a right way to die and you will never be blamed on me."
Wei Tao wiped the blood from his face, threw away the shards of glass in his hand, looked up at the rapidly darkening sky, with a hint of blood red, and an inexplicable and complicated expression flashed between his eyebrows.
After a while, he held down the statue of Xi Mu in his pocket and slowly closed his eyes.
"Unlike Su Mo in Lingyin Mountain, his true spirit mark is relatively stable, but he completely gave up resistance after communicating with me, and even took the initiative to attract my distraction through the statue of the Goddess of Happy Mother."
"It's really hard to understand what kind of death-seeking spirit this is."
"Could it be that only desperate and helpless people would place their hope on Ximu, praying crazily for her to come, even if they have to pay everything for it?"
"His only wish is for me, the so-called descending angel, to protect Yin Yin?"
"But I just killed someone and may be about to row away. In this case, who is Yin Yin?"
Breathing out a breath full of blood-smelling turbid air, Wei Tao looked down at the motionless corpse on the ground, then looked at the wild dogs poking their heads not far away, and suddenly realized that what this guy said seemed to be true.
Doesn't it seem like it's really no big deal if one or two people die?
Dragging the body deep into the garbage, Wei Tao slowly backed away.
He tried his best to erase the footprints and other traces left behind, and quietly watched from the sidelines as wild dogs gathered around and gnawed on the corpse.
Soon after, he found a small river to wash himself, put on the clothes he found in the garbage dump, and began to move towards the bright light.
The night wind blows away the heat accumulated all day long, making this summer night much cooler and refreshing.
Wei Tao stood in the darkness on a street corner in a city, silently watching the signboards on the roadside and the people coming and going. Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable feeling of being in another world.
Two young women in cool clothes walked under the street lamp, each carrying a bag of food in their hands, which should be food they had just bought from the store.
A ragged child stopped them, wondering if he was going to ask for something, but he was quickly scolded and chased away, and even chased him and cursed a few times.
The next moment, screams suddenly sounded.
Someone rushed out of the alley next to her, grabbed a bag while one of the young women wasn't paying attention, and ran away.
They stamped their feet and cursed, but did not dare to catch up. They could only watch as the other party disappeared into the depths of the dark alley.
Wei Tao rubbed the statue of Xi Mu in his pocket and slowly withdrew his gaze.
He raised his head again and looked at the night sky where the clouds were gathering, and still found a faint blood-colored light.
It was like blood was sprinkled on it, giving people a strange and eerie feeling.
More than twenty minutes later, he searched for memory fragments and came to a low-rise residence.
This should be Xu Yao's residence.
