138 Who wants to be in the chaos of demon cultivation
The night dissipated, the sun gradually rose, and the morning dew gradually dissipated. The people in the village did not sleep all night. When the sun rose, those demons gradually retreated. After a long time, the people who stayed overnight also went back to rest. Nangong Xia saw that there was no need to stay here, so he was ready to retreat. At this time However, I saw a man with fair eyebrows coming towards him. The old man came to Nangong Xia. He first bowed to Nangong Xia, and then said in a very pure Xia language, " distinguished guest, the priest, please come with me."
"I have to show you the way." Nangong Xia folded his hand and saluted him, and then followed him forward. Although this man was far inferior to Nangong Xia in cultivation, he saw that his eyebrows were white and he was not young. Nangong Xia treated him with courtesy. Before Nangong Xia followed him to the long house, the old man first saluted the long house first, and then said, "Your Majesty, the monk has already brought it." For some reason, what he said at this time was also a Xia language that Nangong Xia could understand.
"Please invite him in." An old man in the room said, and Nangong Xia walked into the long room with the old man who led the way.
There are no windows in this long room. When the thick curtain hanging on the door is put down, there is no light in the long house. There was only one fire in the room. The yellow light made the room dark. On one side of the fire was a goddess with a snake body. This goddess sculpture was extremely abstract. Nangong Xia could not see whether she was the goddess she knew. An old priest sat in front of the goddess statue. The priest's eyebrows were all white. He sat in front of the fire. There is also a kind of redness illuminated by the light on the wrinkled face.
"You are the Taoist monk named Nangong Xia, but thank you for what happened today." The priest said, under the beating of the fire, the flames rose, but it made the priest's figure a little illusory.
"You're welcome. It's Nangong Xia." Nangong Xiadao couldn't see who the statue of the priest here was, so Nangong Xia stopped looking at it. He turned his head and looked at the beating firelight. The flame was obviously not an ordinary flame. There was a strange spiritual fluctuation in the flame, but when Nangong Xia wanted to capture the special features, the abnormality in the fire did not disappear completely. See you.
The priest looked at Nangong Xia's expression and guessed something. He gently made a strange gesture in front of the fire, and then said to Nangong Xia, "There have been a lot of chores in recent days, but they have not answered the guests' questions. If the guests want to ask anything, please tell me."
Hearing this, Nangong Xia did not ask the questions he wanted to know, but first asked the strange things he had seen in the past few days. He only heard him ask the priest, "Excuse me, why are there so many demons coming to attack here? If there are often such casualties, who can stand it?"
"This place is also extremely peaceful. Although there will be more demon cultivation, except for the extremely low cultivation of spiritual cultivation, generally, demon cultivation with a little cultivation will not come to attack here at will, but I don't know why these demon monks will not only attack recently, but also obviously organized and premeditated. That's it." The priest said that the firelight in front of him fluctuated, just like the fate of his own people. Thinking of this, he felt a little helpless, but naturally he would not show all these thoughts.
Hearing this, Nangong Xia remembered the battle of demon cultivation that he had experienced not long ago, so he said, "The change of demon cultivation?! Will those demons absorb the souls of others and then refine them into their evil forces?
"It turns out that you also know about this. I was still wondering that although demon cultivation is alien, they also have demon disasters to overcome. If too many killings are involved, their demon disasters will be extremely difficult to overcome. However, at this time, these demon practitioners not only kill, but also refine the souls of others as a way of practice. As for the demon disaster, they are completely ignored. The priest said that his hands emitted several gray rays to the flame outside the flame. The flame beat and soon showed some scenes. These images were the scenes of some demons fighting with human warriors. The battle was extremely tragic, and finally ended with the defeat of human beings. After the victory of those demons, Then kill all the undead people, and then extract their souls to refine them.
"These are." Nangong Xia saw that these were obviously demons attacking the village, and this village should be another village.
"This is another village in my family. Some days ago, the whole village was slaughtered by demons, and there was no survivors." The priest said that although his face seemed to have no expression at this time, his eyes flashed, but he might see that he had obvious mood fluctuations. Soon after, he only heard him say, "By the way, I only said about my family. I don't know what you want to ask."
"This is the thing." Nangong Xiadao saw that the other party had eliminated the scene in the fire, so Nangong Xia stopped talking about these things, but asked what he wanted to know. "I don't know what lava places are here, preferably those that have recently changed."
"You are really here to ask about this. Since you have asked, I will tell you that there is a lava mountain here, which is far away from here, and the demons who besieged the village also came from that direction." The priest said that at this time, he no longer went to see Nangong Xia, but took out the copper pot burning on the fire. He poured a bowl of water for himself. The water was blood red, but Nangong Xia did not know what it was for.
"So it is." Nangong Xiadao, at this time, he took out another letter. He handed the letter to the priest and asked, "I don't know if you know what is said in the letter."
The priest took the letter, took a brief look at the letter, and then shook his head and said, "This letter is normal if you don't know it. Although it is written in Xia language, it is just a fake of the sound of Xia language, so in your opinion, this is just some meaningless words. Although the content of the letter is true or false, you can refer to it. The letter says that in the blood pool of Yaoshan, there is a demon that controls the surrounding demons and attacks other demons, and asks Tianyinguan to send another person to investigate the matter.
When Nangongxia heard the blood pool of Yaoshan, he almost guessed that it was most likely to be the source of the mutiny demon cultivation, and the sound view on that day should be the source of those demon cultivation in black, so Nangong Xia asked, "I don't know where this Tianyin view comes from."
"These demons are also divided into many factions like Taoism, and this Tianyinguan is the demon cultivation of the largest force in this area." The priest collected the letter and returned it to Nangong Xia. After that, he said, "It's just that Tianyinguan usually restrains the demons under the door, and the demons under his door rarely conflict with human beings. At first, I was also wondering why the demon monk attacked the village, but it turned out that there was a rebellion.
"In this way, we just need to give this letter to Tianyinguan, and Yinguan will ask about this that day." Nangong Xiadao, he put away the letter, and naturally he would not say anything about Xiaoding.
"It is possible, but this letter is very likely to record some secret information, but this recording method often changes, so I don't know it." The priest said, at this time, he poured all the bowl of blood-red water into a small hole in front of the statue. He put away the wooden bowl and then asked, "I don't know what's the matter?"
"There is nothing special, but some time ago, I heard that there was a demon who didn't know whether it was good or evil to practice in the land of lava, so I wanted to come and explore it to determine his good and evil." Nangong Xiadao, he won't say the real purpose.
"So that's it, but the prince has a heart." The priest looked at Nangong Xia. After a while, he shook his head and said, "But I still want to advise you that with the cultivation of the prince, he may not be able to cope with his really powerful demon cultivation. It's just bad luck and less. Therefore, it's better for the prince to go to Tianyinguan to find them first to solve this problem."
"This is going on." Nangong Xiadao, he already had a plan in his mind at this time, so he did not plan to go directly to the blood pool of Yaoshan.
"So, you can go on your way as soon as possible." The priest said, he looked at Nangong Xia and shook his head slightly, then turned his head to the door without saying anything.
"Since there is a change here, I should stay here to help." Nangong Xiadao, demon cultivation competes with human beings, who should help, Nangong Xia knows.
"This is not necessary. You can take a break first, and then go to Tianyinguan quickly. Please ask us what explanation Tianyinguan has for this demon cultivation change, and I hope they will come forward to solve this matter. The priest said that his eyes were extremely far-reaching at this time, but he did not know what he was really thinking.
"So, I'll start tomorrow." After saying that, the priest told him where Lishan was, and then let Nangong Xia leave.
After seeing Nangong Xia leave, the priest first bowed to the statue, and then took out a wooden box from behind the statue. He took out the letter in the box and read it for a long time before sighing gently. Then he threw the wooden box into the fire. The box entered the fire and caught fire, and a red light in the fire went out. Only the red light was reflected by the red firelight, but the priest did not find any of these. After that, the priest took out a few wooden sticks and played with the wooden sticks casually in front of the statue. After a long time, she looked at the results in a daze, but whispered, "Why is it fierce, but now it has become a big murderer again."
It's just that there is no one else in this long room, and no one answers his questions.
Nangong Xia knew nothing about the long room. At this time, except for the people who were still on duty, most of them had gone back to rest. Nangong Xia also returned to his room. He sat in front of the bed and just heard what he had just heard. After a long time, he put some magic arrays around the bamboo house, and then took out the small tripod from those demons, but this small tripod was just a very ordinary bronze vessel. Nangong Xia could not see any value that it was worth protecting those demons with their lives.
After a long time, Nangong Xia carefully received the small tripod into the Tianyu Mirror, and then withdrew the surrounding phalanx.
