Others practice immortality and I become demons

【〇[-]】

A young man propped his hands on the door with a hesitant expression on his face.This man has a serious face, the kind that is rigid, well-behaved, and slightly melancholy because he wants to gain the approval of others too much.

Mei Yan noticed it, turned her head, and was overjoyed: "Fu Ye."

The man named Fu Ye was embarrassed: "Still thinking about your brother?"

Mei Yan couldn't help but ran over and dragged Fu Ye back, and said in a low voice, "You don't blame me anymore? Have you figured it out?"

Shang Chen looked at his nose, nose, and heart with great interest.

Some people seem to be very casual, but they can always succeed casually.Some people work very hard, but no matter how hard they try, they are far from success.Mei Yan is the former, Fu Ye is unfortunately the latter.Fu Ye is from a neighboring village. He was sent to cultivate immortality in his teens. His spirituality is too poor and he works too hard. Every time he is so tired that he vomits blood, even his master can't bear it.After a few years of cultivation, he didn't make any progress. After several bloody battles between sects, he came back with nothing.

Fu Ye once wanted to study medicine, but the Mei family's medical skills were not spread to the outside world.

Mei Yan secretly taught him medical skills.But Fu Ye's talent is really pitiful, he can only recognize simple herbs, and every time he picks a bunch, Mei Yan throws away nine out of ten—although Fu Ye is really serious and hardworking, often studying in the middle of the night.

Mei Yan jumped up angrily: "I can't tell the difference between poisonous weeds and medicinal herbs! Do you want to open a medical clinic or a shroud clinic!"

Letting go of studying medicine, Fu Ye went home to farm an acre of land, and would come to play with Mei Yan when he was free.Maybe it's because of his lack of talent in everything, Fu Ye looks more and more melancholy, his eyes often look down slightly, and he doesn't look at others.

When cleaning up the lantern plants on the tiles together, Fu Ye was very serious, cleaning them up one by one without raising his eyes or speaking.

Shang Chen had nothing to say: "I heard that Jing Ma Ling was not called Jing Ma Ling before?"

Only then did Fu Ye speak: "It used to be called Zhima Valley."

"Why did you change it?"

"There has been a catastrophe."

"What disaster?" Shang Chen pressed harder and harder.

Fu Ye finally raised his eyes, and immediately lowered his eyes. At that moment, his eyes were extremely black, as black as the night of the first grade of junior high school——this appearance was too much like a doormat.

"More than 200 years ago, there was a sect of cultivating immortals at the other end of the valley. There were a lot of people. A big devil came out and killed all the people in the sect overnight. At that time, blood flowed into the valley along the road. That night Well, someone saw Yin soldiers taking away the souls of these dead people—everyone who saw it was terrified, and then all died. Later, there were rumors that Yin soldiers and black and white impermanence specialize in this way, so the name was changed. "

"What teaching?" Shang Chen was startled.

"Xuanyang Sect, I heard from my former master that it is quite a famous sect."

Xuanyang sect?Could it be the time when Mingshu went mad?No wonder Mingshu is so familiar with Qiqingfang, Fengmojie, Ahanzhai and these roads!However, why did Mingshu take these roads again?Self torture?

"Spreading rumors?" Shang Chen settled down.

"Not necessarily, many people died."

Mei Yan listened to the conversation between the two, and gave Fu Ye a blank look: "Come here!"

Fu Ye hesitated for a moment, and passed by, Mei Yan turned his arm, and went away without knowing what to do in a blink of an eye.Shang Chen was left alone to clean up all the lantern plants, and the two of them did not come back.

Because of the conversation just now, Shang Chenming became more and more puzzled, and walked around, trying to find the master.

The design of the Meijia Medicine Hall is ingenious and not very regular. It is roughly arranged in a ring shape. The innermost one is the place for refining and boiling herbs, the outer circle is the room for drying herbs, and the outermost circle is the living yard. Further outside is the field, where food and vegetables are grown.Beyond that are dark mountains.The easternmost courtyard is Mei Yan's courtyard. The courtyard door is ajar, and there is sound even though the lights are not lit.

Shang Chen tiptoed in and heard a panting, Fu Ye's voice was weak: "Mei Yan, your Mei family..."

Mei Yan said: "There are dozens of people in the Mei family, and you still owe me one?"

"This way we will lose our children and grandchildren."

"Both of us have neither father nor mother, what can we do if we break up!"

"You really don't regret it?"

"If I can't be with you, I will regret it! I will regret it for the rest of my life!" Mei Yan hugged Fu Ye.

Let alone the beautiful spring scenery.

It has been three years since Mingshu talked about double cultivation last time!Shang Chen was impulsive, wanting to find Mingshu, but he didn't see anyone at all, he went all out, then declined again, and exhausted three times, and when no one was found, Shang Chen's heart was gone first!Shang Chen was dangling his two thin legs, thinking melancholy, Young Master Xia started dual cultivation at the age of ten, and Mei Yan is only eighteen now, life is too short, why waste it!

After a while, Mei Yan came out happily, her eyebrows, nose and eyes were full of joy.

Shang Chen took the opportunity to ask him the secret.

"I'm a doctor, what kind of medicine can't be easily obtained? He's as soft as water, why don't you let me do whatever you want?!"

"...What if he gets angry!"

Mei Yan lowered her voice: "Actually, I'm not sure. Last time Fu Ye ran away in anger. I searched for him for half a month, but I didn't see anyone. I thought he didn't plan to see me! Today He came to me suddenly, which proves that he has me in his heart! Strike while the iron is hot, and cook raw rice and cooked rice!"

"...Fu Ye is really easy to talk to."

"That's not necessarily true. If I don't strike, he won't take the initiative to say anything if I kill him." Mei Yanzhi was full of pride, "So! Take the initiative! Take the initiative! If someone robs you, just wait and cry!"

"..."

Taking medicine is such a bad move, even if Shang Chen had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare!

Ten thousand steps back, Mingshu was really overthrown.If he doesn't say yes, Shang Chen dares to go?Will Mingshu say yes?With his face, he wouldn't even say it!never mind!Such a thing as deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors is struck by lightning!

Sure enough, we still have to pick soft persimmons!

The next day, in the early morning, Fu Ye sat on a chair, half asleep, looking extremely tired.Mei Yan rolled up her trouser legs, and from time to time came over to give Fu Ye a quick kiss, without any concealment.Thinking of the master who never sees the end of Shenlong, Shang Chen is even more depressed.

Shang Chen said, "What are you doing today?"

Mei Yan smiled, and raised her eyebrows: "I can't do anything, the old lady wants everyone to smash the medicine cup!"

Just as they were talking, several people copied the thing angrily, crackling, and walked out angrily, saying miscellaneously: "I'm so confused, everyone is busy, what are you doing fishing for the pond if you have nothing to do! It's just a copper pounding medicine cup, even if it's What happened to the golden medicine cup!"

"What's the matter with the old lady recently? I saw her fidgeting a few days ago."

"People are old and confused."

"Don't even talk about it, just release the pond water quickly, and once you fish for things, you will get them, and if you don't have them, you won't have them. It's okay to make noise."

It turned out that Mei Yan had a great-grandmother.I am 87 this year, with sharp ears and eyes, and I am full of air when I scold others.She was Mei Yan's great-grandfather's concubine, and her husband passed away unfortunately before she gave birth to a son and a half daughter.Because she brought a generous dowry here, and these lavish houses were all thanks to her, so her descendants did not neglect her.Gradually, the older generation died, and those who were two or 30 years younger than her died a wave, and she was the only one left.

When I woke up this morning, my great-grandmother remembered that decades ago, she had an argument with her great-grandfather and threw an ancestral medicine cup into the pond.No, she tossed her children and grandchildren, and went to smash the medicine cup.In the pharmacy hall, there were as many pounding cups as needed, and everyone complained.The great-grandmother then scolded everyone as unworthy descendants and wanted to go down to the pond to fish them.

Everyone can't do it at first sight, so they can only rely on her.

The wild pond is not far from the house, at the foot of Zhima Mountain.Zhima Mountain is composed of continuous mountains, and the aisle in the middle valley is Jingma Mausoleum.

The wild pond is large and the terrain is high. Instead of going down to fish, let the water dry first, and catch all the wild fish by the way.Some people set up nets to catch fish, and some waved hoes to lead the canal. After a while, the pond water flowed down.In this way, when the pond water runs out, the bottom of the pond can be seen clearly.

Those who had work on hand left first, leaving a few people waiting.

The great-grandmother stood by the pond, with sparse white hair, a face like orange peel, and dark eyes.Because he was too old, he had a ghostly aura all over him.

Mei Yan's uncle, Mei Changsheng, presided over the overall situation, directing everyone to go and stay.

Mei Yan's cousin, Mei Ou, is young and dignified, and uses straw ropes to tie up the fish that has been fished out.

Others come and go quickly, too late to get to know each other.

Mei Yan, Fu Ye, and Shang Chen were waiting by the pond.Mei Ou glanced at Fu Ye, and said to Mei Yan: "It's okay to have fun, don't go too far, be careful that those old men and women will beat you out."

Mei Yan said indignantly: "Hmph! Nobody cared about me since I was a child, but now I want to? It's too late!"

The harmony of yin and yang is common sense.It's just that cultivating immortals is in charge, and now this principle is a bit weak. The immortal companions of dual cultivation are not limited to men and women, and it is not so unreasonable to affect ordinary people.But ordinary people still have men and women to carry on the family line, so they still avoid the matter of cutting off their sleeves.However, Mei Yan is an orphan, and Fu Ye's family is even more straightforward. Within three generations, he is the only one left, and no one can control these two.

Just as Mei Ou and Mei Yan were bickering, Shang Chen was inadvertently surprised to see Ming Shu standing with his great-grandmother, who seemed to be asking questions.Water overflowed from Shang Chen's feet, Shang Chen suddenly felt something was wrong, lowered his head, why is the pond water getting redder?

More than just overflowing water, the entire pond suddenly turned red.

Everyone was in an uproar, staring at the pond in horror, waiting eagerly.The water was getting redder and redder, and after "pushing away the last layer of clouds and mist", a piece of dark red—iron sheet was revealed.The bottom of the pond is like a huge dark red iron box buried, slightly curved, high in the middle and low around, and the residual silt is fine.

No, not like a case - it's just the tip of the iceberg.

This is a big deal!

The people of the Mei family were boiling, and the young and strong gangsters came over and continued to dig along the exposed places.After two days and two nights, the edge hadn't been dug yet, but a general appearance appeared, like a large underground palace, tightly closed, with a mechanism like a door.

There are large door nails on the door, which are simple and heavy.

Dozens of people from the Mei family chattered together, discussing how to get rid of it.Some people advocate forcibly digging it open, because they may not know what is inside; some people say that if there is miasma or poisonous gas, they will kill people;

The old lady said: "Bring the stone beast enshrined in the ancestral hall."

The stone beast lacks ears and legs, has a round head and a round brain, and is stupid and dumbfounded.Trembling, the old lady slanted the stone beast into the copper door. The missing ear was just caught by the door stud. The old lady clasped the doorknob, snapped it, and it clicked, but it was the missing leg.

Before everyone could click their tongues in amazement, they heard a bang and the door opened.

There was a lot of smog.

The members of the Mei family discussed how to advance.Shang Chen approached Ming Shu: "Master, where did you go last night? It was so hard to wait for you!"

"Walking around."

"Master, are you familiar with this area, Qiqingfang, Fengmojie, Meiyaotang, what's behind it?"

"Ahanzhai, Zang Chi's sect of practice."

"Are you taking us back to the old place?"

"Ah."

"For what purpose?"

"……You think too much!"

Shang Chen secretly held Mingshu's hand, angrily said, "Master, you take me for a fool again!"

"I don't understand it myself."

"You tell me, let's figure it out together... I don't want to be like a fool and you keep everything secret!"

"..."

"If you still lie to me, I'll get rid of the idea of ​​sharing blood!" Shang Chen said harshly.

"...you want to hear it?"

Sure enough, as Shang Chen guessed, the Xuanyang Sect is at the end of Jingma Mausoleum - the northern end of Zhima Mountain.The once vast sects have now turned into dust and the legend of the Mausoleum of Shocking Horses.Mingshu didn't want to go back to the old place, but Qi Zichen insisted on learning the piano with Lin Zhifeng, so he had to come.

Because of practicing the magic pole technique of Bailijie, Mingshu's face is completely different from before, and it is convenient to walk.

Who knows, after coming, one after another found some doubts.

Shang Chen was curious: "Why?"

Mingshu said: "I thought that the immortal cultivators who were still alive either died tragically or lived in seclusion. So far, I haven't even met a single one."

Immortal cultivators, who live for a long time, can always leave some fruit, so they won't be so bleak.Mingshu became more and more curious. He wanted to know what happened in the past 200 years.And all those who live a little longer, without exception, are those who devote themselves to cultivation, such as Taishu Jiu, who was only born in recent years.

On the whole, it is actually the legend of Jing Ma Ling, which is the closest to the truth.

The smoky air at the Red Gate gradually lessened, and Shang Chen pondered: "Did this secret path exist before?"

"I haven't heard of it, but it may be leading to Xuanyang Sect."

"why?"

"The doornail on the red door is engraved with the unique mark of Xuanyang Sect."

It's a pity that things go by too fast, and there are probably very few people who know about it.Shang Chen turned his head and looked at the old lady with a vicissitudes of life: "Did she really lose the medicine cup? Or did she intentionally lead people to fish? Why didn't she find out before?"

Mingshu pondered and said, "Actually, she is a witch doctor."

Shang Chen was shocked: "What?"

This old lady known as great-grandfather's concubine is actually great-grandfather's little sister.The witch doctor of the Mei family burns too much spiritual energy, and either dies young, or is murdered because of the knowledge of the secret, and the people of the Mei family have high medical skills, but they don't practice, so they can't protect the witch doctor.Several people in the ancestors then sent the younger sister out to take care of her until she was fifteen or sixteen years old, and asked her great-grandfather to "marry" her back, hiding it from everyone.

The old lady never showed her beauty, so no one knew about it.

And on that day, Mingshu stood alone on a high place, looking down at the Mei family house that was brand new to him, the old lady appeared, Mingshu turned around silently, but heard the old lady say: "My life is coming to an end, I don't want to interfere. However, since the master of Xuanyang Sect has returned, the secret should not be sealed."

She explained the different origins in one sentence.

Mingshu asked, but the old lady said that what she penetrated was only scales and broken armor, and she could only figure out Mingshu's origin and the pond with dark waves surging.If she doesn't continue to search, she doesn't know what it is.So, there is this one out this morning.

Shang Chen wants to know all the secrets.

But he had to wait, waiting for the miasma to slowly dissipate, and someone entered with a lamp.Mei Yan was eager to try, but Fu Ye was careful not to let him go, and during the tugging, Mei Yan ran over and dragged Shang Chen in together.

This is a secret path.

Very long secret passage.

But it's just a secret path.

Walking through the long and straight secret road, it is a wilderness.Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, which is higher than the head of a person, is verdant, among which there are occasional broken walls.Mingshu looked at the broken wall under the setting sun, with a sad expression, and his resolute face was as fragile as glass.

Shang Chen asked: "Is it the former Xuanyang Sect?"

Mingshu said, "Yes."

"You know this secret passage?"

"I don't know, it's the first time."

The secret path leads to the Xuanyang Sect, but Mingshu, a disciple of the Xuanyang Sect, doesn't know it.

The secret road is paved unpretentiously, there is a lamp holder not far away, there is a residual wax torch on the lamp holder, and there is a room about three lamp holders away, with different sizes.People pushed away excitedly, but were disappointed that most of the rooms were empty.

There is not even a little treasure in the whole secret road.

The people of the Mei family were inevitably frustrated.

Mei Yan searched carefully in the secret passage, hoping to find something.Shang Chen and Ming Shu also returned to the secret passage, wandering around from room to room, and found some clues, for example, most of the doors had traces of being forcibly pushed open, and in severe cases there were ax marks; if there were occasional furniture in the house, it must have been Chopped or trampled to the ground——Before it was sealed, there had been serious fights in this secret passage.

The secret path is very straight and even, as if it was purposely designed for people to see to the end, Shang Chen drew it casually: "Master, this secret path is so long."

Ming Shu thought about it.

Mei Yan murmured, "What do you want to spend so much effort digging a secret passage without hiding anything!"

Fu Ye held him by the hand: "Has someone come in?"

clang clang--

clang clang clang--

Mei Yan kicked a big iron door: "Finally there is an unbroken door."

But in the room, there were a few broken chairs piled up with Lala, but there was nothing.After Mei Yan and the others left, Shang Chen held the lamp, stared at it for a while and said, "Master, this room seems to be different."

Mingshu removed everything, knocked on the base line, tried a few times, and then patted the wall a dozen times, and the dust fell down one after another.

There was a sound like a heavy mechanism moving.

There was a hole in the wall.

Shang Chen covered his nose and looked at the brightly lit room: "Master, there is an ever-burning lamp here."

There was another click from behind, and the doorway quietly closed.Shang Chen was not worried, and continued to walk into the house, when he stopped suddenly, a skeleton was lying in a corner, cut off at the waist.The tragedy was unknown at the time, but it is shocking now.

Shang Chen hurriedly turned his head, only to see that Mingshu showed a look of surprise, with his fingers pressing on his chest.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"So it's not a dream."

Shang Chen asked in amazement, and Ming Shu explained the reason: he couldn't remember clearly about the madness, he only remembered killing many people.Also, he was trapped in a place by people. The place was dark and dark, and he couldn't get out no matter how hard he tried. After so many years, he still occasionally dreamed about it.The former is a fact, while the latter, he always thought it was a nightmare.

The stern Mingshu leaned against the wall and closed his eyes: "However, those secret rooms in the dream are circular, and you can't break through them no matter how hard you try."

Even after more than 200 years, has Mingshu still not escaped from the shadow of the nightmare?

Shang Chen was moved: "Master."

Mingshu walked towards the white bone skeleton, half of his clothes had been melted, and there were no weapons beside him, so he couldn't tell who it was.Mingshu looked at the skeleton, squatted down, and said, "I killed this man, and I beheaded all the people in the dream——Shang Chen, if one day, I do it again—are you afraid? ?"

How can you not be afraid, big devil, Shang Chen nodded.

Ming Shu said sadly, "It really is!"

Shang Chen smiled, and held his hand: "I will practice hard, and I must be stronger than Master!"

"...It's beautiful to think about!"

"... Is Master willing to kill me?"

Mingshu stared at Shang Chen, and smiled: "If, once again, I go crazy, I will kill myself first."

Shang Chen leaned forward and kissed him: "There will be no second time."

Before the bones of the dead, the two kissed affectionately, and the kiss was astringent and sweet.Ming Shu reluctantly let go, and was about to leave, but Shang Chen said with a smile: "Master, don't you have the heart to look at this room? Actually, there is another door in this room."

Mingshu looked at it carefully, pressed his hand on a blood mark, and the door opened.

Suddenly, it was another room.

This room was even more messy than the Bone Room. The tables, chairs, and benches were all overturned. A painting on the wall was torn in half, and there were dried blood stains on the painting.Shang Chen used the arrows to draw three rooms one by one, like a path from the secret passage, and like a branch growing obliquely from the secret passage.

"Master, the arrangement of the rooms is not vertical and horizontal, but presents a certain angle. It is conceivable that if other houses are like this, complicated secret passages will be formed in the end-Master, let's take a look."

However, Mingshu took the paper and pen and drew a neat figure, several octagons intertwined with each other, with the straight secret passage in the middle.

Complicated, interlocking, and regular.

Imprisoned in the nightmare, Mingshu opened all the passages again and again, trying to break out. In the past 200 years, how many times have I dreamed, so I will imprint the path I have traveled in my mind——Mingshu, who is in a state of madness, broke into such a maze in a state of deliriousness, no wonder it will become a lifelong nightmare.

"Master, how did you get out?"

"I don't know. In short, after waking up, all the people of Xuanyang Sect are dead—they are all marked with the marks of my killing."

"Maybe someone else..."

"Impossible, I have a part of the memory."

The cruelest thing is that there is still memory. Mingshu deeply remembers that when he passed with a sword, warm blood gushed out from the bodies of his senior brothers, while his own eyes were only blood red.

"What happened later?" Shang Chen asked lightly.

At that time, Mingshu was already covered with scars, his muscles and bones were broken, and his heart was ashamed.

The real person in the Baili Realm is the last cultivator in the Baili Realm, with gray hair and the sun is setting, trying his best to cross the seal for the last time.Time waits for me, what the real person is looking for is no longer an ignorant apprentice, but a person with strong spiritual power.

By chance, they met.

The real person brought Mingshu who was trying to commit suicide back to the Baili Realm, healed his wounds, and let him practice Moji.The Baili Realm is like another world, Ming Shu thought, if the seal can be broken, it will probably be another kind of atonement.Unbeknownst to him, soon, Qi Zichen was swallowed by the seal of fire.Killed so many people, but may not be able to save a person who wants to be saved.Therefore, Mingshu wanted to save Qi Zichen, in addition to friendship, there was also redemption.

The powerful Mingshu has been living in darkness.
