Bu Tian Gang

Inside the tent, Long Shen sat cross-legged, and said to He Yu and Yu Bugui, "I can't control the devilish energy in my body."

He Yu was slightly shocked, unbelievable: "Have you reached this point?"

In his mind, no, in the minds of almost everyone, Long Shen is omnipotent and never needs others to worry about him. Even though Che Bai is older than him and has a great background, everyone respectfully calls him the Che Bureau, but in a real fight, Long Shen may not necessarily be at a disadvantage.Just because this man is so powerful, he will always be the solid support of everyone in the second group. Everyone admires and loves Long Shen, and is willing to give everything for him, but intentionally or unintentionally, they forget that Long Shen is not actually a god, and even Zong Ling fell down. Now, how could Long Shen have no weaknesses and no injuries?

Long Shen nodded, looking at him and Yu Buhui with worried expressions.

"The demonic energy here is very strong. Maybe you have the stellar energy to protect your body, but you haven't felt much, but there is residual demonic energy in my body, and the two are pulling each other, which makes the influence of demonic energy on me stronger than ever. The place is big."

Yu Buhui: "Then what if we leave here?"

Long Shen shook his head: "Elder Zong and Che Ju died in the line of duty. Now you have seen the seal they formed, and it is impossible to completely contain the devilish energy. Once the devilish energy breaks through the seal, I am here, or outside, there will be another What's the difference? Except for me, no one can replace the Phoenix who guarded the formation, even if He Yu proposed that method, it's just a gamble."

Yu Bugui couldn't refute.

Long Shen said: "If you win the bet, everything will be fine. If you lose, Dongzhi, you, people outside, and more people will have to make sacrifices, but I don't want to see this kind of thing happen. I hope Dongzhi can Live well and don’t want him to come and accompany me on a big gamble. Artifacts, spirits and monsters have a long lifespan, but they are no more precious than mortals with a short lifespan. Because I am the creation of mortals.”

"Boss..."

Long Shen looked at He Yu, and said in a gentle voice, "I'd rather see you thinking of ways to play games lazily and spread boring information everywhere, than to see you sacrifice yourself to block the evil energy, although you, Wang Chaosheng, and Zhong Yuyi are My subordinates, but I have never regarded you as my subordinates, do you understand?"

He Yu, a tall and thick man, had already burst into tears.

He used to think that crying was a bitch's behavior, but now he felt that even if he cried loudly, he couldn't vent his inner pain and powerlessness.

Long Shen said: "Your ability is long enough to be independent, but I think you are playful, and I have never let you out. This time, the Special Management Bureau suffered heavy losses. I am afraid that Bureau Wu will have to rest for a long time. I will not be here in the future. You It's the team leader of the second group, and it's all up to you to see Chao Sheng and them."

Having said that, he suddenly laughed at himself in a low voice.

"I don't know if it's because of the evil energy entering my body, but now I find that my selfishness is getting more and more serious. I was talking about protecting the world, but in fact, he is the only one I want to protect the most."

He Yu sobbed: "Boss, don't say that, I know you want peace in the world more than anyone else, otherwise you wouldn't make this decision, I will watch Xiao Dongzhi, but sooner or later he will know what you are doing , since you want to protect him, you shouldn't lie to him!"

Long Shen said calmly: "I didn't lie to him. After he read my notes, he would naturally know the way. Only he can do this."

Yu Buhui didn't stop crying like He Yu, because he had been with Long Shen longer than He Yu, and knew that Long Shen's decision would not change. Instead of being sad here, it's better to think about what he can help, Perhaps more practical.

"Brother, if you decide, just do it, I will protect the law for you, I hope you don't forget that the winter solstice is waiting for you."

Long smiled deeply: "Thank you, I will try my best."

Outside, Master Zhang had already sent people back to fetch the jade plaque immediately, but after all, it would take a lot of time. Tibet is actually closer to here. A palm-sized pure gold pagoda enshrines relics.

Wanting to replace the role of the array eye spirit weapon, even if it is only temporarily, is not something that mortals can do. Although Long Shen didn't reveal his real body just now, but the presence is well-known in the practice world. There were quite a few people who could hear the implication, and they didn't ask any more questions. Seeing him coming out at this time, the head of Zheng and Song Zhicun went up to meet him.

"Dragon Bureau, since we want to imitate the layout of the small octagonal magic formation, in addition to the eyes of the formation, we must also need seven other stone tablets. It will be too late now, we want to replace the position of the stone tablet with our bodies." Zheng said. .

Song Zhicun: "That's right. We discussed it just now. The head of Zheng and I each count as one, and the heads of Longhu Mountain, Maoshan, and Hezao Mountain also expressed their willingness. The remaining two will be divided into two. Living Buddha is in charge."

No one would shirk and retreat in the face of such a crisis. Even on weekdays, there will inevitably be some discord and festivals among the various factions, but everyone knows that if the skin does not survive, the hair will not survive. Once the passage is completely opened, the abyss, hell and the world will be connected. If they become one piece, then it will not only be the Dharma-ending Age, but a complete purgatory.

Long Shen said, "Others can, but you can't."

Song Zhicun was taken aback.

Long Shen: "Wu Bingtian has been injured, and we are both here. If something happens to you again, the Special Administration Bureau will have no leader."

Song Zhicun's Adam's apple twitched up and down, he really didn't know what to say.

He was worried about Long Shen's life and the situation in front of him, but Long Shen was thinking about the overall situation from the beginning to the end.

"I come!"

Yu Bugui strode over from behind.

"I'll take Song Bureau's place!"

He Yu turned to his master Xin with red eyes and said, "Master, let me take your place too."

Head Xin pulled him aside, and gave him a slap on the back of the head: "You think it's just playing tricks? You haven't reached that level of cultivation yet, stop talking nonsense, it's not that Kong Rong gave pears, you also Don't think you have nothing to do, just follow me, if I can't stand it, I really have to ask you to go!"

He Yu touched his painful head and muttered, "You can't be gentle!"

"Before I came out, I had already told your senior brother that if I couldn't go back, he would have to pass on the Hezao faction. However," Head Xin glared at him, then paused, "I hope you can go back. "

He Yu looked at his master and felt the sadness of wanting to cry but not being able to cry for the first time.

"Don't show such an expression!" Headmaster Xin smiled, and he didn't have any fear of doing something that might endanger his life. "The man is upright, but please have a clear conscience, especially for practitioners. If I don't make a move this time, I will leave my own demons in the future. Let alone practice, I can't even be a good person. You go and prepare, we still have to do it." There are some talismans to draw, you come to help."

He Yu promised in a low voice, "I can help right now!"

Head Xin frowned: "Before drawing a talisman, you have to burn incense, bathe and change clothes. Only with sincerity can you perform the talisman. Now is a very important moment, and you are not required to do so much. Cleaning your hands and heart are the most basic!"

He Yu glanced at his master's hand: "Your hands are not much cleaner than mine!"

Before Master Xin hit him, he jumped away with one step, and then ran away with two steps in three steps.

……

What is placed in front of the winter solstice is definitely not a fairy tale book, but a notebook with a fairy tale book cover.

Dong Zhi had seen this notebook on the train before, and even dared to open it. He Yu said it was a ghost drawing talisman.

Looking carefully at this moment, he found that the cover looked old on purpose, just like the nostalgic notebooks sold on the market.

The big yellow cat and the octopus lay on the table, watching Dong Zhi and Cheng Hui study the notebook.

"He Yu bought this notebook to memorize game strategies, but the boss found out and confiscated it." Wang Chaosheng said with a flick of his tail.

Winter Solstice laughed, and he felt that Long Shen didn't seem like a person who would like this kind of childlike style.

No, it should be said that Long Shen would not choose a style on purpose. For him, a notebook is enough as long as it can remember things.

"Go and do your work." He said to Wang Chaosheng and Octopus Meka.

Seeing Chao Sheng was a little worried: "Is the boss all right in Kunlun Mountain? I heard that the elder Zong died?"

Winter Solstice comforted him: "It's okay, Bureau Song and the others are still here, you have to trust my master's ability."

Seeing that Chao Sheng's monster power is still too weak, he can't help him in this matter at all, so Winter Solstice doesn't want him to worry too much.

"Meika has just arrived in China, and she can't even speak Chinese fluently, but I don't have time to take it to see Senior Wuzhiqi right now, so I will trouble you to take it with me for the time being."

"I've been bringing it with me for the past few days!" Wang Chaosheng jumped off the table first with an expression of "you need to say more about such a trivial matter".

The octopus waved its tentacles at Dongzhi politely, and left behind Wang Chaosheng with the white cat.

Two seconds later, a tentacle reappeared at the door, closing the door that was forgotten just now.

Cheng Hui was dumbfounded: "An octopus with a very high IQ!"

Winter Solstice thought that he would be more surprised when he saw that Meka could speak English fluently.

"Sorry, I asked you to come here right after getting off the plane, and I couldn't take a break!" Dong Zhi apologized.

Cheng Yu waved his hand: "I've already heard from the master master, there's no need to delay, let's start right away!"

Winter Solstice nodded.

Cheng Hui opened his notebook and began to translate the winter solstice word by word.

Winter Solstice concentrated on listening and memorizing with a notebook, so that after a while, he might be able to try to interpret it by himself without bothering Cheng Hui to finish reading the thick volume.

Long Shen's handwriting is provocative, but the font is not large, and it has almost filled a book, and there are only two or three pages left in the end. Dongzhi knows that if he wants to find out the solution related to the stele as soon as possible, he must read it from the end. Get up and turn forward slowly.

On March [-]th, I am going to go to Kunlun Mountain. I hope there is still room for redemption.

Winter Solstice rarely hears Long Shen say words such as "hope" and "expectation", because by saying these words, he has pinned his hope of realizing something on others, and Long Shen never does this. Whatever he wants to do, he will practice it by himself.

This may be the first time he has written his heartfelt words in the form of words.

It shows that he has realized that the situation in Kunlun Mountain is far more difficult than everyone imagined.

On March [-]th, Otowa Hatohiko died, and Ding Lan's remnant soul was brought back, but the matter is not over yet, Che Bai has already sacrificed, I remembered the conversation with Zong Ling before the trip to Japan, if it reached that point , this may be the only way.

any solution?

Huge doubts arose in Dong Zhi's heart, he and Cheng Hui looked at each other, and the latter turned another page.

On March [-]st, Zong Ling gave me the four-element star-fixing lamp.

To me, even if the spirits of White Tiger, Suzaku, and Qinglong are condensed on it, it is just an unusable utensil, but the infusion of Zong Ling's spirit makes this lamp completely alive.But I told Zong Ling that with the help of an ancient stone box, Otowa Hatohiko is far more powerful than the avatars of human demons or celestial demons. The four-element star-fixing lamp now has at best a "wick" and needs a "fire guide" to completely ignite it.

Zong Ling knew what I said was right, but she was helpless. I thought for a long time, and finally came up with an effective solution.

The method is that I will act as the "fire guide", by attracting the magic energy into the body, activating the four-image fixing star lamp, and letting it trap Otoyu, and I can take the opportunity to completely destroy him.

Zong Ling strongly objected, but I have already made up my mind.

I know that this method may cause a hidden danger, that is, the demonic energy after entering the body may lose control, even dominate my will, and eventually assimilate me into a monster. As a last resort, my retreat is the winter solstice.

Seeing this, Dongzhi's heart beat faster and faster, and his breathing became short of breath.

"Why am I the one who retreats?"

Sweat dripped from the tip of Cheng Hui's nose, and he continued to read.

I once injected half of my soul into Changshoujian, which will take away some of my strength. I didn't want Dongzhi to think about it, and I didn't tell him.

Now he is more and more compatible with Changshoujian. One day, he will be able to achieve the state of unity of man and sword, and the connection between soul and soul. At that time, Changshoujian will give him more strength and vitality. Maybe his lifespan will be longer than Others are longer, fulfilling his desire to walk with me down the road.

However, I know that not everyone likes immortality, at least I don't like it.In the past, I didn’t have much feeling. I just said that people come and go, like the vegetation withered, let nature take its course, but after getting to know the winter solstice, I gradually understand that it is very helpless to watch the people I care about age and die while I am still alive. matter.

This may be the reason why I have not been able to finally break through from the half-immortal body. In fact, I am no longer a pure sword. I have human nature, but I knew little about it before and never explored it deeply.

Although I want him to be with me all the time, I can't impose this wish on him. I don't know how human beings like a person, but I think it should be what he wants. I will try my best to help him accomplish it. He doesn't want it. Yes, I will never force it.

I didn't mention this to Dongzhi, because I was also worried that he had too much affection for me, and if he heard that he could spend more time with me, he would agree without hesitation, but any decision without careful consideration would be Not really a decision and not good for him.

Originally, I wanted to wait for the dust to settle before finding a chance to have a good talk with him, but I didn't expect that this foreshadowing would become my escape route. If I was assimilated by monsters, no one in the world would be able to stop me. Shoujian is the only existence that can solve me or save me.

Hopefully things haven't gone that bad, because I want to stay with the solstice a little longer.

It's a pity that I met him too late.

Before this notebook, I wrote many notebooks, but I burned them all. The record was not because I was forgetful, but because I wanted to use words to leave some traces.Words are alive, even if they are burned, they still existed.

But now this book, I am a bit reluctant to destroy it.

Cheng Hui looked at the tearful Winter Solstice, and said softly, "Do you want to continue reading?"

Winter Solstice closed his eyes: "Cheng Hui, I already know how to help Master, now I'm going to Kunlun immediately, I want to save the front part of this notebook and read it on the way, but there may be some words in it, I have to ask You help translate."

Cheng Hui: "I'll go with you!"

Winter Solstice shook his head: "It's very dangerous there now. Your master and senior brother are already there. If even they can't solve it, it's useless for you to go. It's better to stay in the headquarters to be safer."

Cheng Hui nodded, but he didn't insist. After all, he was very aware of his abilities. He thought he had fallen into the trap of demons in Guangzhou, and had to trouble his senior brother and Dong Zhi to save him.

"Then be careful, I will turn on the phone 24 hours a day, and you can send me any questions you have at any time!"

Liu Qingbo and the others had already set off for Kunlun, and besides Cheng Hui and Dongzhi, only Liu Si was present.

Liu Si is a very reliable companion, he doesn't talk much, but he can always play a role at critical moments.

Hearing this, he immediately got up and said, "There may not be any seats on the air ticket at the moment, and there are few flights to Tibet. I will contact Director Wu immediately and ask him to try to free up a special plane. Go and pack your things!"

He didn't wait for the winter solstice to thank him, and he had already gone out.

……

Two hours later, Dong Zhi and Liu Si were already on the plane heading to Kunlun Mountains. Since it was a special plane, the plane would land at the military airport closest to Long Shen and the others, and then go there by car, but even so, at least It will take a day to arrive, and this does not include the time to enter the Lengele Canyon.

Fasten the seat belt, listen to the broadcast in the airport announcing the upcoming departure, Dong Zhi lowered his head, and opened the two notebooks lying flat on his lap again.

One is Long Shen's notebook, and the other is the translation notes he learned from Cheng Hui himself, but even if he has this note, he has to fill it out word by word, and then read it together. For a human, it would take a lot of time, but Dong Zhi didn't take it seriously, he already knew what Long Shen said, so this time, he chose to start from the beginning.

The beginning of this notebook is from three weeks before Winter Solstice met Long Shen.

At that time, the Special Administrative Bureau had just discovered the abnormality of the monster, and from the clues provided by the Northeast Branch, it learned that a group of Japanese had changed their names and surnames after entering the country normally, and disappeared quietly. It appeared near Changbai Mountain, so Long Shen took He Yu and Wang Chaosheng on the train to Changchun.

On February [-], [-], a large-scale prowling nightshade appeared on the train, which caused one person to disappear and one person to die. This was the negligence of the second team and my wrong judgment.There is a passenger named Dongzhi in the car. His name is very coincidental, and he still has a touch of magic on his body. It is suspected that he may be related to monsters and needs to be verified.

This is the first record related to the winter solstice to appear in this notebook from scratch.

Before that, the work documentary was basically a few words, and there was no personal emotion, which was in line with Long Shen's usual personality.

Looking back now, even Dongzhi felt that the timing of his appearance was indeed too coincidental, and people couldn't help doubting it.

He didn't know until he became a practitioner that the winter solstice is the solar term of the year at the junction of yin and yang. Scientifically speaking, this day is the shortest day in the northern hemisphere, and if the day is short, the yang will decline. From the perspective of practice, counting the first nine days , Yang Qi is blocked, business travel is not good, his birthday is already cloudy, and he used the name of Winter Solstice, which happened to be not far from the Winter Solstice at that time, so he was regarded as an excellent prey by demons on the train.

Now he naturally knows how dangerous his situation was at that time. If he hadn't just met He Yu and Long Shen, the grass on the grave would be three meters high now, but after the series of adventures he encountered on the train at that time, not only did he not have much fear , On the contrary, curiosity prevailed, and he continued to travel to Changbai Mountain.

But who would have thought that his life would abruptly turn a corner when he thought about it?

Even if he went back more than a year ago, he never regretted it.

Dongzhi sighed softly, and continued to look down.

On February 23, it turned out that the real target of the Japanese was the stele, not the bone dragon.

What is the origin of the talisman on the stele?Never seen it before.To be verified. (emphasis mark)

Long Shen drew the talisman on the stone tablet under this sentence, which should be based on his own memory. Maybe he only drew half of it to prevent leaks.

Winter Solstice was also there when Bone Dragon was executed, but he did not witness the shattering of the stele until later, when he himself participated in it and saw the stele that was supposed to be guarded by Wu Zhiqi.The talisman on it is indeed not much different from the one drawn by Long Shen.

Afterwards, several entries were related to official affairs. It was not so much a diary as a memorandum of a working nature, because it was written in execrable script, and almost no one could understand it. Cheng Hui said that the execrable script used by Long Shen belonged to the There is a big difference between the ancient script and the few ghost scripts that have been handed down in modern times.And Winter Solstice can feel that there should be some kind of restriction on the note, maybe it will self-destruct after a certain period of time, or even if it falls into the wrong hands, Long Shen will know it.

In order to look up translations for left and right comparisons, Dong Zhi read very slowly. He also knew that in Long Shen's notes, he would definitely not describe a bunch of trivial moods like ordinary people, but he still didn't want to let go of any record, because it was Long Shen's notes. Deep in every footprint in the world.

In Long Shen's heart at that time, the most important thing was to trace the purpose of the Japanese and the follow-up of the stele. After the winter solstice passer-by was found to have nothing to do with monsters, he naturally no longer deserved the other party's attention.

Seeing this, Dong Zhi couldn't help laughing silently.

He was curious, and turning back, how Long Shen would write about him.

A mortal who is full of curiosity but has no self-knowledge, or is he a persistent and commendable apprentice?

Outside the window, the clouds are undulating, and the sun is shining.

And he was walking back step by step along the path that man had walked.
