The Demon Road of the Republic of China

When Lu Chenyuan used the secret method to help himself and Yan Ziqi reincarnate, he retained his memory, so he knew very well that there were two people living in his body.

One is him, and the other is the celestial demon avatar back then.

In the troubled times where all the cultivators are out, Lu Chenyuan, Yan Ziqi, Yun Zhang, and Wen Yang are close friends, they often go down the mountain together to slay demons and demons, and practice Taoism together.

However, in an unintentional fortune-telling, Wen Yang exhausted his lifespan and calculated the hexagram of Mieshi.

"More than ten years ago, a baby boy was born. Because of his good deeds in many lifetimes, he became a body of great merit and virtue that is rare in the world. For an ordinary person, this should be the luckiest thing, but this ordinary person has extraordinary aptitude for cultivation. The moment the meritorious golden body fell, he opened his eyes and peeked into the corner of the heavenly way. The heavenly way is supreme, and he could not tolerate any offense from the ants, so he angered the world and released the heavenly demon."

"The heavenly demon was born thousands of years ago, and it did the act of destroying the world. The mainland of China has never slowed down. The method of sealing the heavenly demon is widely spread, and it must be sealed with a person who has cultivated for more than a hundred years, or suppressed with a golden body of merit. There is no trace of the cultivator, but the person with great merit who offended the way of heaven is still alive. His name is Rong Fei, his identity is unknown, so don't guess, and search for it with all your heart."

"My body is about to die, and my soul is damaged. I am afraid that there will be no afterlife, or maybe I will wait thousands of years. It is just a remnant soul. But the demon must be cut off, and I hope the three of you, keep your heart and don't have distracting thoughts. The demon The prestige of the cunning rabbit and the three caves, death is not rigid."

After Wen Yang's death, only one letter remained, and there were no bones left, all turned into ashes.

Yunzhang set up a tomb for Wen Yang, and after seven or 49 days of vigil, he set off with Lu Chenyuan and Yan Ziqi to find someone with great merit.

Lu Chenyuan made a precious orb for this sacrifice, which can sense the energy of merit.

Based on this, the three searched for many years, and finally confirmed that Rong Fei, the leader of the Fengyang Kingdom, was the person of great merit they were looking for.

However, Rong Fei was in his prime at this time, and he was protected by a highly cultivated cultivator. Although the three of them knew that Rong Fei was the reason why the demon came into the world, but the world is not benevolent, and sooner or later there will be a problem. Basically, Rong Fei is also innocent.

After discussing, the three decided to wait until Rong Fei died naturally. When he was about to die, he would use his body and soul to suppress the demon. After all, since the demon had not yet been born, they still had a lot of time.

This wait is several years.

Finally, the Lord of Fengyang was seriously injured and on the verge of death during the expedition, and just as the demon came into the world and felt the plague, the time has come.

Yan Ziqi approached Gu Jinghan, a cultivator next to the Lord of Fengyang, and explained the origin and reason. With the Lord of Fengyang's willingness, he sealed the demon.

But Wen Yang's words were not wrong.

The majesty of the demon, the cunning rabbit and the three caves, dead but not stiff.

When sealing the demon, two strands of the demon escaped and entered the bodies of Yan Ziqi and Yun Zhang who were closest.

Neither of them noticed it at the time, and there was nothing abnormal when they checked their bodies.

But Lu Chenyuan always felt uneasy.

After this matter is over, Yun Zhang guards Wen Yang's tomb and lives in a hut, closing the death gate, while Lu Chenyuan continues to travel with Yan Ziqi in the troubled times.

Yan Ziqi has a sensitive mind, and has noticed the unusual relationship between Gu Jinghan and the Lord of Fengyang. He often visits Changqing Mountain with Lu Chenyuan, for fear that this taciturn natural Dao body will do something earth-shattering .

Facts also proved that Yan Ziqi's concerns were correct.

Gu Jinghan retreated for a long time, and when he came out, he actually gouged out his own eyes and gouged out his heart, just to create a body and soul perfectly suitable for the inhabitation of demons.

He found the reincarnated Rong Fei, intentionally induced the Heavenly Demon, and then revealed his plan when Yan Ziqi and Lu Chenyuan approached him.

He wanted to take it on Rong Fei's behalf.

A natural body of cultivating the Tao is also a natural rebellion against the Dao of Heaven.

Gu Jinghan sealed the celestial demon in Rong Fei's body into his own body, and provoked the celestial law, risking death and soul destruction to leak countless secrets.

Gu Jinghan, the Evergreen Mountain who was pressing on the heads of countless cultivators in this world, died, but Rong Fei forgot everything and achieved the emperor's career for thousands of years.

"Is it worth it?" Yan Ziqi asked.

"Gu Jinghan definitely can't answer this question," Lu Chenyuan said with a smile, "because he didn't think about whether it was worth it. He just wanted to make him suffer less for the rest of his life."

Yan Ziqi was surprised: "How do you know?"

Because I think so too.Lu Chenyuan smiled, but did not answer.

And not only did he think so, but he did so later on.

When Lu Chenyuan discovered that Yan Ziqi actually had a demon avatar on him, he didn't tell anyone. Instead, he searched countless Taoist treasures and found a secret technique.

Both Yan Ziqi and him are cultivators, their cultivation levels are almost the same, but they are not as good as Gu Jinghan.If he wanted to forcibly lure the demon to himself like Gu Jinghan, he would not be able to succeed at all, but would easily lead to a big mistake.

Therefore, the secret method that Lu Chenyuan found was to exchange body and soul when reincarnated.

The Heavenly Demon branch/body is not as powerful as the Heavenly Demon. It only occupies Yan Ziqi's body and has not yet corroded the soul. This method is feasible.

Lu Chenyuan made up his mind and sent a letter to Yunzhang, explaining the reason.

Later, after practicing for several years, Yan Ziqi and Lu Chenyuan finally got old due to their limited talents.

When Yan Ziqi died, Lu Chenyuan saved his memory in advance, performed secret techniques, exchanged body and soul with Yan Ziqi, and replaced Yan Ziqi as the sojourner of the demon clone.

I don't know how many years later, Lu Chenyuan was reincarnated and became the son of the Hou family. Later, he was mistaken for a person of great merit by Emperor Wenxu of the Qi Dynasty, and entered the palace to become the successor of the national teacher.

He also finally understood the meaning of the phrase "keep your heart" in Wen Yang's letter.

He had thoughts about Yan Ziqi that he shouldn't. In addition, he had just been reincarnated and cast a taboo secret technique. His body and soul were so weak that the demon avatar took advantage of the void and invaded his mind.

Lu Chenyuan watched with his own eyes that his increasingly crazy self lost the memory of his previous life little by little, and destroyed the reincarnated Yan Ziqi step by step.

Imprisoned, humiliated, tortured, his countless nasty thoughts were magnified endlessly, and turned into a nightmare abyss that swallowed his mind.

However, just before he brought disaster to the country and the people, and was about to make the world suffer, the former national teacher of the Qi Dynasty, who had been in seclusion for many years, left the seclusion.

This former national teacher who was long dead according to the rumors in the world turned out to be Rong Fei.

Rong Fei spying on the way of heaven, he was blind and seriously injured, and finally recovered after many years of retreat.

But he didn't realize it, when he left the customs, what he saw was such a chaotic world.

After learning about the origin of the current saint, Lu Chenyuan, Rong Fei rescued Yan Ziqi who was imprisoned in Tianjitai, and finally discovered that Yan Ziqi was not a body of merit, but one of the two strands of energy that Rong Fei leaked when he opened his eyes and closed his eyes. When the qi of merit falls on the body, Lu Chenyuan's orb for detecting the qi of merit will light up, and he will be mistaken for the body of merit.

Rong Fei subdued Lu Chenyuan and helped Yan Ziqi become Daqi's national teacher.

But the celestial demon on Lu Chenyuan was hard to control, Rong Fei opened the ancient tomb of the founding emperor of the Qi Dynasty, and decided to seal Lu Chenyuan in the tomb, and use the formation of the tomb to temporarily trap the celestial demon avatar, and then find a way.

that day.

Lu Chenyuan, who was finally divided by the demon and wiped out all the memories of his previous life, fought back frantically. He wanted to drag Rong Fei to the end, but was hugged tightly by Yan Ziqi and dragged into the mausoleum.

"I use my soul to burn the mountain formation and seal this tomb. The heart and ribs are the eyes of the formation, and the third life will not come out. The soul of the blood sacrifice that has been cultivated for a hundred years is the tomb gate. The third life will be forbidden...Master, after the third life, remember to come to save disciples Son……"

Yan Ziqi's voice sank into the ground with the Qishan Tomb, and the third generation did not come out.

Rong Fei set up a large formation outside the tomb, one day in the formation, one month outside, and then hurriedly set off to Changqing Mountain.

He knew he was going to die, and he wanted to take a look at his senior brother before he died.

But before reaching the foot of Evergreen Mountain, the evil consequences brought by the divine scourge could no longer be suppressed.

Frost white dyed his long hair inch by inch.

He was haggard, like an eighty-year-old man, and the one who insisted on making him go on was nothing more than the man on Changqing Mountain.

But God's will can't be violated, maybe it really took pleasure in teasing mortals, when Rong Fei stepped on the first stone steps of Changqing Mountain Road, it broke his last breath.

A mouthful of blood splashed down the blue stone steps.

White hair and dry bones, every inch turned to ashes.

The forest leaves rustled outside the house, and Gu Jinghan woke up in shock from the retreat, with blood slowly overflowing from the line of his lips.

He stood up suddenly and rushed out like an arrow from the string.

Passing by the courtyard, Changqing who was practicing sword was startled, and suddenly had an ominous premonition: "Eldest brother! What's wrong with you?"

Gu Jinghan's figure froze: "It's nothing."

"Eldest brother?" Changqing was puzzled, "Are you going to go down the mountain? You haven't reached the [-]-year period of retreat, and the master won't let you go down the mountain."

"I won't go down the mountain, I'll go to the bamboo forest and wait for someone." Gu Jinghan said.

He built a thatched hut in the bamboo forest on the mountainside where Rong Fei had waited for ten years, sat cross-legged in meditation, and stared at the mountain road.

Changqing sent Rong Fei's letter before leaving, Gu Jinghan looked at the last sentence for a long time, and a helpless smile slowly appeared in his eyes.

Day after day, just like the time from five to 15 years old, Gu Jinghan has been waiting.

But he didn't know that Rong Fei at the bottom of the mountain would never make it to the top of the mountain.

On the day when the hundred-year period came, the old Taoist put an urn in front of Gu Jinghan and said, "This is your second junior brother."

Gu Jinghan stared at the urn for a while, then coughed out a mouthful of blood in a low voice.

"what happened?"

Gu Jinghan said hoarsely: "It's nothing. But it was a big dream and I finally woke up."

He raised his eyes and looked at the old Taoist, "Yunzhang, you have reached the end of your life, are you prepared enough to force yourself to stay here?"

Yun Zhang, who was getting old, laughed: "You remember, Gu Tianshi. You are not the only one who thinks about changing your fate against the sky. The way of heaven is unkind, and treats us like ants, so why should we respect it? I think you will understand what I mean after reading that letter from Jan."

The scroll was unwrapped by the parchment that was well preserved, and Gu Jinghan read it word by word, his eyes darkened.

"It's useless for you to seal the Heavenly Demon instead of Rong Fei. Its body is in me and Yan Ziqi... No, it's Lu Chenyuan now. It can still haunt the two of us. He will bite back. And Rong Fei is not a real innocent person, he is the inducement of the heavenly demon to come into the world, a person who spy on the way of heaven, even if he does not seal the heavenly demon, sooner or later his body and soul will be scattered."

Yun Zhang said in a low voice: "Just like in this life, Rong Fei practiced Taoism, and once again peeped into the way of heaven. The demon avatar almost crazily invaded Lu Chenyuan, intending to cause chaos in the world. The cultivators are becoming rarer and their cultivation base is low. Now Even if Rong Fei and Yan Ziqi managed to use the formation to suppress Lu Chenyuan, but after a thousand years, the formation collapsed and the demon avatar reappeared, what should those cultivators who are like kittens do to suppress them?"

"This time Rong Fei was condemned to death by the heavens, plus he was divided and counterattacked by the demons. Without accidents, this is his last life. He was the one who spied on the heaven twice. It is strange that the heavens can tolerate him so far. "

"Rong Fei, there will be no more reincarnations."

The words that had been hidden in his heart for a hundred years were uttered, and Yunzhang seemed to have aged decades in an instant, and his whole breath was withered.

"When I fully understood Wen Yang's words, you were already dead. I have been waiting for you for a long time, Gu Tianshi...you finally woke up."

With these words, this letter, all the fog in front of him dissipated, and Gu Jinghan did indeed wake up.

Rong Fei, the lord of Fengyang Kingdom, has achieved great merit, but inadvertently pryed into the way of heaven, causing demons to descend into the world, and the people are in dire straits.

Wen Yang figured this out and died.The remaining three fellow practitioners approached Gu Jinghan to seal the Heavenly Demon.

Then, Yunzhang went into seclusion, Lu Chenyuan and Yan Ziqi switched bodies and souls, and reincarnated into this world.But I didn't want to meet the reincarnated Rong Fei again to spy on the way of heaven.

It was really a wrongful injustice that lasted for several lifetimes.

"What do you want me to do?" Gu Jinghan asked the old Yun Zhang.

Yunzhang shook his head: "For so many years, I have tried my best, but I have not found a way to completely get rid of the demon. But I believe that you can. So I have been waiting for you until now, just to tell you everything when you wake up. "

"Rong Fei's death is your demon, you see it clearly, don't you?"

Sitting opposite Zhuxuan, Gu Jinghan raised his hand, and slowly carried Rong Fei's ashes into his arms, "I will choose one life, let everyone gather together, and set up the next game to draw out the demon and two clones of the demon."

He lowered his eyes, his voice was low and cold: "I also want to know, mortals... why can't they fight against the sky?"

Yun Zhang died.

Gu Jinghan used the yin and yang plate, which he refined for Rong Fei's centenary birthday, as a matchmaker to escort Yun Zhang's reincarnation.He refined eight urns according to the appearance of Rong Fei's urn, and when Yun Zhang was reincarnated, he took a wisp of Yun Zhang's remnant soul and sealed it in two urns.

After that, he went down the mountain to find Wen Yang's tomb, and put Wen Yang's ashes into three urns, and when Wen Yang's soul encountered these three urns, it would be sealed inside.

In the end, he entered the Qishan Tomb once, the emperor's tomb that once belonged to Rong Fei.

Yan Ziqi was collected by Gu Jinghan and sealed in the last three urns.

Gu Jinghan made a calculation, and then handed all nine urns to Changqing.

"After the third generation, a group of bandits will come near Changqing Mountain, and one of them is named Rong Peijing. You can tell him three things to change a marriage contract."

"engagement?"

"His son, Rong Fei, is engaged to your apprentice, Gu Jinghan."

The thread of fate is not without trace, and when it is woven, it can also be changed.

After Gu Jinghan completed the layout, he forced Rong Fei to live in his next life, dividing his lifespan with Rong Fei's. He only had 24 years left in his next life.

After that, he died in Haicheng.

As the only person who knew all the past events, Changqing I survived.

He was transformed into a demon from Changqing Mountain and has a long lifespan.

In the second life, he accepted the reincarnated Yun Zhang as his apprentice, and asked him to call him his master, Gu Jinghan and Rong Fei's portrait master uncle, and also experienced the feeling of being called master by his master.

But as a mountain, Changqing often falls asleep.

After waking up from a slumber, Yunzhang's demon avatar in his body was aroused by the lustful Yunzhang.Yunzhang died, and almost lost his soul. In this life, Wen Yang, who has become a ghost, is completely crazy, stealing the vitality of Changqing Mountain in an attempt to change his fate against the sky.

Changqing didn't have time to collect Yunzhang's remnant soul, so he had to seal Yangui into the urn first.

The urn refined by Gu Jinghan is a magical tool for nourishing the soul, which can avoid the demons and help the person who enters the urn to cultivate.Yunzhang's sealed remnant soul has not yet been attacked, and neither Yan Ziqi nor Wen Yang has the avatar of the demon.

All three of them have cultivated into great ghosts with profound cultivation bases over the years, and their memories have become chaotic and mottled. Some people remember it, and some people forget it.

But they all remember their deepest obsession, and they are all waiting.

Waiting for the life that Gu Jinghan promised.

Then, one day in the early years of the Republic of China, the Changqingshan people met the bandit Rong Peijing, and made a marriage contract in a flick.

Another day, the young master of the Gu family in Haicheng was born, and all the ghosts knelt down to worship the demon.

People from Changqing Mountain came here in snow, took him as a disciple, and gave him the name: Shocking Cold.

Many years later, on the ferry back home, the urn in Leng Jun's box, which had been silent for countless hours, gave off a slight tremor, reminding him that this life has finally arrived.

The author has something to say: Finally... there are still some small mysteries left, and qwq wants to spoil the story below...
