treacherous world

Yinhou and Tianzun talked halfway, hesitating, and the four juniors were so anxious that they scratched their hearts and livers.

Zhan Zhao became anxious, "Grandpa, what happened to you in the Western Regions?"

Bai Yutang also looked at Tianzun, "If the Gufang Mirror is not a mirror, then what is it?"

Tianzun and Yinhou looked at each other, and they seemed to be asking each other to talk.

"I don't care about you!" Zhan Zhao made a serious face, and Yin Hou immediately lost his momentum, "Actually, there is nothing I can't say, but..." He looked at Tianzun, "It's just a legend, right?"

"Yeah." Tianzun nodded seriously

Everyone moved their stools to listen to the story.

Yin Hou coughed, "That happened many years ago. At that time, this old ghost and I were still young. When we went to the Western Regions, we met a girl."

"Girl?" Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, thinking that there is still a romantic affair going on here?

It's just that Bai Yutang didn't say anything, Zhan Zhao covered his mouth - don't interrupt!

Both Yinhou and Tianzun smiled helplessly.

"It's not a romantic affair, that girl's surname is Nu."

"Is there such a surname?" Gongsun was curious.

"She also has a black puppy with her. That dog looks very special. It follows the girl closely and doesn't even look at anyone else." Tianzun said, pointing to Yin Hou, "This old devil was also a bastard when he was young. Don't be shy, when I was eating noodles, I saw this girl brought the dog in, and teased the dog with a sheep bone."

Everyone looked at Yin Hou unexpectedly, it didn't look like his character.

Yin Hou turned pale with anger, and pointed to Tianzun, "Shameless, you are the one who is making fun of the dog!"

Tianzun flattened his mouth, and everyone nodded. To a degree, Tianzun is more likely to do this kind of thing, because he is used to teasing all kinds of small animals he sees along the road, such as puppies, cats and little fours. What.

"That is to say, the dog looks like a unicorn, very cute." Tianzun held his cheeks, "That dog is so fun, it came to me to chew on bones."

Everyone couldn't tell what was special about this matter. When Tianzun was young, he was probably a peerless handsome man like Bai Yutang. It's normal to attract cats and dogs. Bai Yutang can attract small animals and a group of two people wherever he goes. group.

"The girl looked up at the old ghost." Yin Hou said for help, "Her eyes are purple, we think it may be a foreigner, she came over and said something to us."

"What?" Everyone was curious.

"She said, let's get out of here quickly, something big will happen soon, I'm afraid it will hurt innocent people." Yin Hou thought about it, "But I and the old ghost have things to do, so I didn't care too much until a few days later. Then I ran into that girl again. At the same time... a plague began to break out in the Western Regions."

"Plague?" Gongsun thought for a while, and frowned. "Many years ago, the Western Regions were originally populated and there were many small oasis countries, but they all disappeared overnight. It is also a mystery that no one knows."

"Well, when I led troops to fight, I also heard it mentioned by the locals." Zhao Pu asked Zhe Ying, "What was it called at that time?"

"The five disasters." Zhe Ying remembered more clearly, "The five disasters refer to earthquakes, plagues, insect plagues, droughts and famines."

"Five disasters..." Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, as if they had heard something before, were they caused by natural disasters...

"It is said that the five disasters are not as simple as natural disasters." Ziying squatted on the stool, "Didn't we dig some tombs when we passed by there? There are so many bones. I heard from some surviving old men and women that they were offended. God and Buddha, was cursed by a witch, and was punished by heaven."

"After talking for a long time, what is the connection with Gufangjing?" Bai Yutang wanted to ask the important point.

"At that time, there were many small countries in the Western Regions, and they were all managed by a traditional sect. You may have heard of that sect." Tianzun said slowly, "Bai Ya Sect."

As soon as Tianzun said this, everyone subconsciously looked at each other.

Ziying sneered, "Bai Fang..."

"The White Fang Sect is the Wolf Sect." Zhao Pu frowned. "This sect still has some power left, but it has long been unable to make waves. I think it was really prosperous back then."

"Why is Bai Ya so weird?" Gongsun asked Zhao Pu curiously because he was not from the Jianghu.

"The difference between a dog and a wolf is the teeth. When a wolf cub was young, it was similar to a dog cub. The puppy's teeth were slightly yellow, while the white ones were wolf teeth."

"The wolf sect encroached on the letter, destroyed it, and governed it violently. Their teaching is that people must have wolf nature to adapt to the desert, so they are rampant in the northwest." Zhao Pudao, "When we first arrived in the northwest, we also encountered The descendants of the wolf sect are too small to make trouble. Although there are few people, the methods are vicious and cruel, and the destructive power is very strong."

Both Zhe Ying and Zi Ying nodded, "Later, the marshal led us to sweep for a while, and the situation was cleared up a lot, and the northwest side settled down."

Zhan Zhao and the others roughly understood, so they nodded and looked at Tianzun and Yinhou.

Tianzun continued, "At that time, the angry girl didn't know where she came from. The prophecy was very accurate, and she was notified from village to village to let the villagers take refuge, so as not to encounter any mishaps. It didn't take long for the wolf sect to pay attention, and the wolf sect tied her up. Get up and prepare to be burned."

Zhan Zhao was surprised, "You guys can't be saved?"

"Saved." Tianzun said, "Saved, but the puppy was left behind."

Everyone was stunned, puzzled, "Dog?"

"The puppy didn't know whether it was scared away by the soldiers or something, and it disappeared. After the woman was rescued, she looked for the dog everywhere, and she seemed very nervous." Yin Hou said, "At first we thought she had a deep relationship with the puppy, but later we felt that It seemed that something was wrong, so I persuaded the wolf to take it away, forget it, and raise another..."

"How to say?" Zhan Zhao frowned, feeling that maybe they were misled when they started to focus on the angry girl. The real problem was the puppy.

"The angry girl told us that a catastrophe is imminent, and that dog is not a dog at all, but a god and Buddha. She took it with her to raise it, and also took care of it. The puppy may think that she has been killed, so it may bring disaster to the Western Regions. "Tianzun said, shrugging his shoulders, "Afterwards, a catastrophe struck."

"Is it the five disasters?" Bai Yutang asked, "Is it caused by that puppy?"

"Hey." The corners of Zhao Pu's mouth twitched, "Then what kind of dog? Erlang God Roaring Sky Dog?"

"Who knows." Tianzun recalled the past and smiled wryly, "That scene was really... like the sky fell apart."

The old ghost and I may be one of the few people who escaped, but we don't want to mention it again. At that time, no matter how good our kung fu was, it was useless, and the whole mountain collapsed. "Yin Hou shook his head, "The locusts and the dark clouds pressed down like a black cloud, not even a single bone was left in the pass, and the sky was full of lightning and thunder, and when the lightning came down, it would blow up a mountain top. "

"The strangest thing is that this disaster miraculously stopped after sweeping through the entire Western Regions, without hurting the Central Plains at all." Tianzun said and waved his hands, "But I think it might just be a disaster like an earthquake, not so evil."

"Indeed." Gongsun also nodded, "If the earthquake is very strong, it is absolutely possible that the ground will shake, the mountains will shake, and the insects will migrate. In addition, it is understandable that the storm and the weather will cause famine and plague. Caused by puppies, it seems that there is not enough reason.”

Everyone nodded, thinking that there should be a follow-up to the story.

"Later we went to the Western Regions again." Yin Hou said, "We originally wanted to save people or help, but unexpectedly we discovered something." We found a long seam in the most severely destroyed area in the Western Regions. "Tianzun said, "Going down the seam, there is a collapsed palace. In the ruins, there is a crystal pillar...or an ice pillar. "

The more people listened, the more evil they became, Zhuzi?

"The crystal pillar is about the size of a person's body. It is crystal clear. I don't know if it is a natural crack or something has been frozen into it. It has formed an ice peony, which is lifelike." Yin Hou praised, "When we went, we found that Miss Nu is right in front of the icicle, beside her, and the little black dog is also there."

"At that time, she told us that this crystal pillar was called the Gufang Mirror, and there seemed to be some kind of Qiankun knife or something, but I didn't remember it too clearly, after all, it has been so many years."

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, both of them thought of what Ye Yunshan said before, the young master asked him to go from house to house to find things, and he seemed to have found knives before, this time it was a mirror.

"The girl said she was going to collect the Lonely Mirror, and wanted us to help transport it, but just at this time, someone outside called for help, so we went to help rescue the victims, saying that it was over and people would transport it. Such a big pillar can't be lost anyway. " Tianzun said here with regret, "The girl also went to save people with us, but when we went back, we found that the crystal pillar had been stolen."

"Steal it?" Zhan Zhao was surprised.

"At that time, there were a group of remnants of the wolf sect who took advantage of the chaos to steal the treasure, and they probably stole the pillar as well." Yin Hou said, "The angry girl was in a hurry, so she asked the people nearby, saying that the wolf sect secretly stole the pillar." The pillars were loaded into a boat and fled southwest along the great river."

"When that big river goes south and flows through Dali, it is black water." When Tianzun said this, Zhan Zhao and the others finally went through it all at once.I have been in Dali for a long time, and I have encountered some irrelevant ghosts and gods, and now it involves Heishui, which finally catches up with the purpose of my visit.What they are looking for is black water!Could Dead Leaf and Zhan Hao be nearby?Could it also have something to do with the five disasters of that year?

"We persuaded that girl back then, if it's gone, it's gone, isn't it just like icicles." Yin Hou smiled helplessly, "But the girl lost her temper and said that this thing is a life-threatening treasure. If it falls into In the hands of villains, the world will be in chaos."

"Well, after that, I drove the boat and took the black dog to chase." Tianzun said, "After so many years, we have never seen the girl and the black dog again, but we have heard a lot of rumors. Some people say that this catastrophe was caused by a witch with a black dog in order to obtain the five artifacts that the first emperor buried in the Western Regions. Later, some people said that the wolf teaching ship was intercepted by a witch in red at the downstream, and the two sides handed over After the capture, the boat capsized. Those treasures fell into the turbulent black water along with a large number of looted property from the Wolf Cult. All humans and animals were killed within, it is simply a vicious monster.”

"So cruel?" Zhan Zhao sounded so mysterious.

"The gods and Buddhas in the sky are so magical that no one really saw them." Yin Hou curled his lips, "If it wasn't for the sudden mention of the Gufang Mirror and the Western Regions today, I really can't remember it." If so, Grandpa, you just now Why are you angry? " Zhan Zhao always felt that Yin Hou seemed to be hiding something about this matter. Yin Hou looked at him and said nothing.

Tianzun couldn't stand it anymore, and helped him out, "Before leaving, the angry girl told the old devil that a catastrophe would be brought about in the future, and he would become the object of everyone's disdain."

Zhan Zhao was a little annoyed, "You're talking nonsense."

"People are not talking nonsense." Tianzun shrugged, "The old ghost picked up two brothers who are neither evil nor good on the way back from the Western Regions. It can also be said to be God's will."

Everyone is frowning - so accurate? !

"Oh, it's just a coincidence." Yin Hou didn't take it seriously, "This kind of weird stuff is mostly a hoax."

"Even if it's a hoax, there is some basis." Zhan Zhao had a sudden thought and asked, "Could that angry monster be that dog?"

Zhao Pu shook his head, "The angry monster has three heads, but the dog only has one."

"Pillar..." Bai Yutang said to himself, "A crystal pillar usually has either six sides or eight sides. As long as three sides can be seen from the front, it is possible to regard a complete big dog as a three-headed monster." dog.

"It's possible..."

Before Zhan Zhao could answer, footsteps came from outside, and then someone asked, "Young Xia Bai, are you asleep?"

The voice was Cui Qishou. If it sounded normal just now, it feels a little weird now.Because everyone knows that the real Cui Qishou is buried in the ground, this is a fake, he is still a partner with that servant girl, and is the real murderer of Seventh Aunt Tai.The other party seems to have a very clever disguise technique, so we must be more careful.

"not yet."

After hiding Tianzun and Yinhou, it was still Bai Fu who ran to open the door.

Standing outside the door is Cui Qishou.There was still a smile on his face, and everyone subconsciously put away their scrutiny and welcomed him in.

"That's it, everyone." Cui Qishou didn't enter the room, but said, "Someone came from the yamen, and they said they would investigate one by one. If you are inconvenient, I will send you out through the back door first, and wait until tomorrow morning. pay a visit to?"

Zhan Zhao and the others looked at each other... Cui Qishou came and went, his attitude seemed to have changed drastically, did he get some order to send them away first?

Everyone subconsciously looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang stood up gladly, "If it's an investigation, then it will be avoided. Let's leave first."

"Oh, that's really negligent." Cui Qishou said regretfully, but his physical condition seemed to be relieved. He hurriedly ordered the butler to see him off, and led everyone out the back door, leaving the Cangshan School mansion.After heidengxiahuo, he went around the mountain several times and successfully reached the bottom of the mountain.

Leave the housekeeper alone, but Zhan Zhao and the others did not leave.

Looking up at the Cui Mansion on the top of the mountain with folded arms, Zhan Zhao frowned, "It's not right."

At this time, Ziying and Zheying ran down. They received Zhao Pu's order to inquire in the front hall, and the first thing they said when they came down the mountain was, "My lord, there is a problem, and the yamen didn't come at all!"

"Oh?" Zhao Pu frowned slightly, "Isn't that a scam?"

"Is the fake Cui Qishou in a hurry to drive us away?" Gongsun was puzzled, "He seemed to have other plans before, why did his attitude change after he went out?"

"Could it be..." Bai Yutang asked, "Is anyone here?"

"Could it be that young master?" Zhan Zhao's heart tightened a little - could Zhan Hao be among them?

"Then let's take a look at it?" Zhao Pu suggested.

"It's not appropriate to startle the snakes." Zhan Zhao shook his head.

Bai Yutang also felt that now is not the time, not to mention Zhan Hao, now they haven't even found any dead leaves, they haven't found anything, so it's better to keep a low profile and take your time.

Therefore, the soldiers divided into two groups, Zhao Pu took Gongsun and the shadow guards back first, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang sneaked back to Cangshan School with Tianzun Yinhou, wanting to see what happened.

At this time, in the Cangshan School compound, the lights were turned off and there was no one there, and the door of the study was closed.

In the room, there was only a candle on the table in the middle, and the light was dim. In the dark corner, there was a man sitting on a grand chair with a black cat with golden eyes on his lap.He was gently stroking the cat's fur, and asked in a low and slightly hoarse voice, "Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, have you driven away?"

"Just drive away, young master." The fake Cui Qishou knelt at his feet, lying on his stomach, not daring to move.

"No doubts?"

"No."

"Did you find anything?"

"Not...not yet." The fake Cui Qishou stammered nervously.

"Haven't found it yet?" The man shook his head lightly, "Tsk tsk, but it's almost time, I think you'd better kill everyone first, and then slowly dig three feet to look for it, it's probably the same as the last few They are similar, well hidden!"

"Yes."

"Do it now." The eldest young master waved his hand, signaling Cui Qishou to go out.

"Uh...young master." Cui Qishou asked tentatively, "Should we wait a little longer? Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang have just left, in case they are discovered..."

"Who said they left?" Laughter in the dark, with a bit of evil spirit, "They are coming back."

Cui Qi was stunned.At this time, another person came out from the other corner.

"Are you all ready?" The young master asked him coldly.

"Okay." The answer came in a colder voice.

"Very good, remember, catch Zhan Zhao alive for me, as for Bai Yutang... Well, it's a pity to kill him, but if you let him go, he will go back to the mountain, it's really embarrassing."

The man hesitated for a while, then sighed, "Forget it, let's kill him, who made him hate the key. To keep a secret, the first thing to do is to destroy the key and not keep it. future trouble."
