The real young master is also the real devil

Revenge ([-])

On the back hill of Yuanzhuwu, there is a solemn black bamboo castle, guarded by a disciple every few steps, it is very strict.

After the disciples of the Zhou family in front of the door saluted, they blocked Shi Zhilin's way: "Daoist Yao Ling, you cannot enter here without a warrant from the Patriarch."

Shi Zhilin's expression remained unchanged, but his spiritual consciousness had already spread inside, and he said casually: "If that's the case, forget it."

He was about to turn around when he heard a burst of laughter. Not far away, several teenagers walked quickly. After seeing Shi Zhilin, the leader Zhou Yun immediately raised a warm smile: "Brother Zhilin?"

Shi Zhilin nodded slightly, Zhou Yun's eyes turned to the black bamboo castle, his eyes flickered, and he said with a smile, "Brother Zhilin wants to go in?"

Shi Zhilin: "It's just a stroll here, since it's an important place of the Zhou family, as a guest, you should be polite."

Zhou Yun laughed: "It's not really an important place, but my father usually comes here when discussing important matters. Today, my father is not here, so there are only books, calligraphy and paintings inside. If Brother Zhilin wants to go in, I will bring them with you." You go in."

Shi Zhilin hesitated a little: "But I heard that you need a warrant from the head of the house to enter here."

Zhou Yun turned his head to look at the guard who stopped Shi Zhilin before, his smile turned into arrogance: "I need my father's warrant to bring brother Zhilin in?"

The guard hesitated for a moment, but finally let go.

Only then did Zhou Yun smile: "Brother Zhilin, let's go."

The area of ​​the Black Bamboo Fort is not large, but the guards are extremely strict. In the past few days, Zhilin has visited Yuanzhuwu almost all over the place, but he has not found any clues. Only this place has not been entered. It should be possible to come here. Find something.

As Zhou Yun walked, he introduced to Shi Zhilin: "This is actually one of our family's book collection cabinets, but the books here are not important books. Most of them are ancient books that my father has not finished reading and are studying. Brother Zhilin, if you are interested in the formation, you can look through it too."

Shi Zhilin paused: "Is this okay?"

Seeing that his tone was loose, Zhou Yun's impatience of being coldly received by chance encounters after so many days of making chance encounters and wanting to know Shi Lin's good feelings was finally relieved, and the smile on his face was two points of truth: "Of course there is nothing wrong, I I also said before that there is nothing important here, and Zhou and Shi also signed a contract before, brother Zhilin can read all the ancient books of the Zhou family."

Pretending not to hear what Zhou Yun meant, Shi Zhilin picked up a yellowed ancient book at hand, flipped through it and said, "Is this the ancient spirit-gathering array?"

Zhou Yun glanced at it and didn't pay much attention to it: "Yes, I remember Brother Zhilin had seen this book in Zangshu Pavilion before, no wonder he recognized it at a glance."

Shi Zhilin lowered his eyes and flipped through the pages of the book, but the retrospective mirror in the inner mansion was looking back on everything that happened here from startled to far. After reading a few pages, he put it down and said: "Patriarch Zhou is worthy of being the leader of the formation. Zhilin was a bit ignorant when he saw the Spirit Gathering Formation before, but now seeing his markings, it is like enlightenment."

Zhou Yun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, picked up the book he had put down, flipped through it casually, and said: "Father does have the habit of marking, so this book is not the one you read in the Library Pavilion before, that should be a rubbing down."

Shi Zhilin didn't take it seriously, nodded and picked up the second book. He was about to open it when he stopped and asked Zhou Yun's opinion again: "I casually flipped through the books on Patriarch Zhou's desk. May I?"

In fact, Zhou Yun just said casually just now, he thought that Shi Zhilin, a child of a noble family, would never be able to flip through the master's books at will, and the fact proved that it was the same, Shi Zhilin just read the ancient book marked by his father just in a hurry After looking at it twice, I didn't hold it in my hand to read more, I thought it was just because of embarrassment.

So hearing his question, Zhou Yun said without even thinking about it: "I've said it before, brother Zhilin can look through all the books and ancient books of the Zhou family, let's have a look."

Shi Zhilin's eyes slightly bent, thanked: "Thank you, Brother Yun."

This was the best look Shi Zhilin had given him in the past few days, and Zhou Yun couldn't help but feel complacent, thinking that the task assigned to him by his father should be completed soon.

Next, he was very patient

Accompanying Shi Zhilin heartily, he walked around the black bamboo castle, from upstairs to downstairs, he introduced every calligraphy and painting decoration.

Shi Zhilin noticed that he seemed to be accompanying him, but he was actually very vigilant. However, he came here during the day to explore the way first, and he needed to find another time to find out. So he behaved very politely, as if he was really just Out of curiosity, he wandered around and left.

After Shi Zhilin left, Zhou Yun immediately sent a message to Patriarch Zhou, telling him about Shi Zhilin's going to the Black Bamboo Fort.

"Sure enough, everything is within my father's expectations."

Patriarch Zhou is in the Yun family at the moment, upon hearing this he said with a smile: "The Shi family is exterminated, the other three families have vested interests, especially us and the Yun family, Shi Zhilin will naturally have doubts, if he stays there peacefully, I will not Don't worry, that's all, let him go wherever he wants, you just stay with him and remember what I told you."

"Yes." Zhou Yun paused, and said, "Father, but in the past few days, I found that Zhilin had nothing to guard against at all. He probably hasn't gotten over the incident of the Shi family's destruction. Staying in the room refining his unknown things that can’t be refined at all, just wandering outside when there is nothing to do, I don’t think it’s any different from those dandies in the imperial city who don’t practice immortality, I don’t think there is any need to be so vigilant.”

Patriarch Zhou: "Don't underestimate Shi Zhilin. He grew up under the knees of the late emperor since he was a child. The late emperor seemed benevolent, but in fact he knew how to use people well and was very good at playing power. Otherwise, there would be no peace and prosperity today. His elder brother Shi Guanyi is not the same. As a vegetarian, Shi Zhilin seems to be stubborn on weekdays, but he has never caused any serious trouble, and even won the unanimous praise of several great scholars who taught him at that time, it can be seen that he is by no means as simple as he looks."

Zhou Yun was a little dissatisfied with why his father had always been so fond of Shi Zhilin, "No matter how powerful he is, he still hasn't reached the top. He's just a child, how much sense can he have? Father, I think you are too cautious."

Patriarch Zhou was silent for a few seconds, and his voice sank a bit: "Do you remember my purpose for letting you approach Shizhilin in the first place."

Teach you how to set up the page, come and see!

Zhou Yun: "Let him get close to our Zhou family?" He couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "But Shi Zhilin is a disciple of Tianshan, how could he join our Zhou family."

Patriarch Zhou: "You don't need to ask more about this, just do what I say."

Anyway, it wasn't face-to-face, so Zhou Yun had the courage to talk back to Patriarch Zhou: "Father keeps telling me to pay attention to Shi Zhilin, isn't he also leaving home at this moment?"

Patriarch Zhou was not angry when he heard the words, but was very peaceful, "I have important matters to solve when I leave home. As for the time to come, just like you said, young people under twenty, even if they want to do something, they can't do it. When the big waves come, it is enough to have you at home."

With his father's affirmation, Zhou Yun lost his temper a bit. He just thought about it, and asked with some reluctance: "Father, do you really think that Shi Zhilin can't find anything? Doesn't Shi Shi still have something?" Is it in his hands? Maybe he can really find out something with the help of those?"

Patriarch Zhou smiled: "Don't worry, Yun'er, he definitely won't find out anything. Even if he finds out... Being a father will make him unable to do much."

Patriarch Zhou was confident in what he said, so Zhou Yun was relieved, only being a father had another plan.

But he didn't know that the biggest reason why Patriarch Zhou was not so guarded against Shi Zhilin was actually because Shi Zhilin was only a Nascent Soul cultivator, and even if he had reached Nascent Soul Dzogchen, in his eyes as a distracted Dzogchen monk, it wouldn't be enough. threaten.

The gap between Nascent Soul and Distraction is like a natural moat.

After the monk conceives a baby, a golden baby will appear in the inner palace. The baby looks the same as the monk. It can convert the absorbed spiritual power into extremely powerful primitive power and absorb it into the body. However, this spiritual power can only be absorbed in the Nascent Soul stage. It cannot be released, and the golden baby can only be used for storage.

When the accumulation reaches a certain level, the golden baby will transform and grow into a clone that is indistinguishable from the real one, which is distraction.

If it is said that from the establishment of the foundation to the golden core, it is the standard to test whether a monk can truly embark on the immortal journey, then from the nascent soul to the distraction, it is the first step for a monk to break through the shackles of the heavens and ascend to immortality.

Crowd

Everyone knows that cultivating immortals is going against the sky, but there are so many cultivators seeking the Tao, and the Tao of Heaven regards everything as a dog, so how can it record all monks in the law-distraction is the first step to enter the law.

It can be seen from this that the gap between the monks who have not reached the distraction stage and the monks in the distraction stage is as large as the sky.

Only after being distracted can one comprehend the laws of the way of heaven, one's soul can come out of the body, one can comprehend or refine/develop formations, talismans, spiritual tools, medicine pills, and swords that contain the laws of the way of heaven, and one can truly manipulate the consciousness of the gods at will to make them become for their own use.

These are the foundation of the aristocratic family and the great sect, and it is also the reason for the decline of the aristocratic family and the sect.

They dared to plan to destroy the whole family of the Shi clan, but in the final analysis, it was because the ancestors of the Shi clan had already fallen, and Shi Zheng, who had the highest cultivation base of the Shi clan, was not too distracted in the middle stage, but he held the largest fortune in Kyushu in his hands, and he was waiting to be slaughtered. The fat sheep is right in front of you, who can resist the temptation?

No matter how talented Shi Zhilin was, before he reached the stage of distraction, Patriarch Zhou and Patriarch Yun were only on guard against him, not to mention very vigilant, after all, more than a thousand people in the Shi clan were all unconsciously controlled by them. After killing all the rules, what can Shi Zhilin do with those few defeated soldiers?

……

Zhou Yun left the Black Bamboo Fort after the interrogation with his father, but he didn't know that not only the content of his interrogation had been seen by Shi Zhilin, but also Shi Zhilin himself was right behind him.

When Zhou Yun and Zhou Yun came to the Black Bamboo Castle before, Shi Zhilin brought a substitute talisman in, and then unknowingly dropped the double made by himself and the double talisman, let the double go back, and concealed himself Xing followed behind Zhou Yun.

Just like Patriarch Zhou's disdain for him, Shi Zhilin didn't pay attention to Zhou's formation at all.

Before that, he had read most of Zhou's ancient books in the Zhou Family's Library Pavilion, and found that Zhou's research on ancient formations was not that deep, but he was proficient in some things that used formations to harm morality.

Shi Zhilin became curious at the time, and did a lot of research on Yuanzhuwu's formation, and finally found that Zhou's formation was not at all the "ancient formation" that Zhou declared to the outside world, but a kind of interlocking formation. This kind of formation is not simpler than the ancient formation, and it can even be said to be more difficult.

Then why didn't the Zhou family want to tell the real formation of Yuanzhuwu?

Because the core of this formation is absorption.

Absorb everything that can be absorbed from the surroundings, such as vitality, luck, aura, etc., and use these to form a feng shui mechanism change, so that the lush forests and bamboos in Yuanzhuwu will be elegant and spiritual everywhere, and thirty miles away from Yuanzhuwu A once famous Lingshan Mountain has been reduced to a dead mountain where not a blade of grass can grow.

None of the trees, grass animals, or humans on the mountain, below the mountain, or near the mountain survived.

Shi Zhilin had seen this unsolved case hundreds of years ago in the file given to him by his uncle, and he hadn't found out the reason after a long investigation at that time. Far, the Patriarch of the Zhou family is also famously gentle and easy to talk, no one would guess in this direction.

Even Shi Zhilin knew about this because the retrospective mirror reproduced the scene where the Patriarch of the Zhou family and his subordinates discussed matters of the previous generation.Not only did he see Zhou's use of his vitality in exchange for prosperity, but he also saw Zhou's formations improved time after time and the human lives filled in for it.

Shi Zhilin dared to say that even Zhou Yun was not as familiar with Yuanzhuwu's formation as he was.

At this moment, Shi Zhilin was standing where Zhou Yun and Patriarch Zhou were standing when they communicated. On the shelf in front of him, there were incense burner decorations, all of which were elegant and extraordinary.

But Shi Zhilin's gaze didn't stop at all, but quickly moved every item on the Bogu shelf irregularly, some turned to the south, some turned to the north, some changed positions, and some twisted. After half a turn, it twisted back again.

After some operations, there was no movement in front of my eyes.

Teach you how to set up the page, come and see!

Shi Zhilin was not surprised at all, he raised his hand lightly, and a stream of pure earth-type aura flowed in from the jade at the bottom corner, the jade gave off a golden light, and the gold-type aura traveled to the upper side of the incense burner, and the water-type aura in the incense burner turned into a

Furnace smoke curled up, piercing into the bronze horse ornament above, emitting a fierce red light...

The aura wandered around in this way, until all the auras of the five elements appeared, and then they heard a click, and one of them was handed over to Shi Zhilin.

He went down, walked through the dark corridor, and arrived at a small but clean stone room.

Inside, hides Zhou's biggest secret.

……

A few days later, the head of Tianshan left the customs and hurried to Zhou's house.

After three months, Shi Zhilin finally met his master.

Seeing him, Daoist Yugan asked with concern, "Is everything okay?"

Shi Zhilin suppressed the soreness in his heart, and nodded slightly: "Everything is fine, disciple."

Only then did Master Yugan feel relieved, and said to Patriarch Zhou in a deep voice, "What is Patriarch Zhou's intention of detaining my apprentice?"

Patriarch Zhou naturally denied it, and said gently: "Master Yugan, Daoist Yaoling was out alone at the time, and he was far away from Tianshan Mountain. As an uncle, I really couldn't bear him to be bumpy and suffering outside, so I brought him to live in the Zhou family. , Your words are too serious."

Daoist Yugan snorted coldly, "Since that's the case, now that I'm here, Patriarch Zhou should have no objection to taking Zhilin away?"

Patriarch Zhou didn't change his face: "Naturally, it should be so. You are Yao Lingdaojun's master, and it is most appropriate to take him away." After speaking, he turned to look at Shi Zhilin, and said with a little worry and concern: "Zhilin , What Uncle Zhou said before means everything, and you can come to me if you encounter any problems."

Shi Zhilin didn't want to look at his hypocrisy, but he also knew that this was not the best time to tear his face apart, so he nodded lightly and said, "Thank you Patriarch Zhou for your care during this time, Zhilin will definitely repay you twice in the future."

The smile in Patriarch Zhou's eyes stagnated slightly, but it didn't take long before he said heartily, "Then Uncle Zhou will be waiting."

To Shi Zhilin's surprise, Patriarch Zhou really just exchanged pleasantries, and Daoist Yugan took him away after a short while.

It wasn't until he returned to Tianshan, stood in the Infinity Hall, and accepted the condolences from his senior brothers and sisters, that Shi Zhilin had a real feeling in a trance.

Daoist Yugan was also worried about Shi Zhilin's state, and said: "Go and rest, we will talk about everything tomorrow."

Facing Master's loving gaze, Shi Zhilin's eyes were slightly sore, and he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it anyway, and said in a low voice, "Then disciple will leave first."

Daoist Yugan nodded, and when Shi Zhilin walked out, he could still hear him telling Senior Brother Jiuqing and Senior Sister Zhifan: "You should take care of Gu Zhilin these few days, don't let him be alone."

Shi Zhilin's tense nerves slowly relaxed, and he walked along the familiar mountain road to the gate of the small courtyard. Looking at all this, it seemed like a lifetime away.

Behind him, someone called him: "Little Martial Uncle?"

When Shi Zhilin turned his head, he saw Xin Tianhe hiding behind a tree. When he saw that it was him, his eyes lit up and he ran out. When he stopped in front of him, he took out a small box, and said cautiously: "Little Martial Uncle , this is the Yunpian Cake under the mountain, I remember you like it very much, do you want to eat it now?"

Shi Zhilin's eyes fell on the wooden box, and the corner of his mouth was bent: "Thank you."

Xin Tianhe pursed his lips, opened the lid, and said, "The shopkeeper said that this time the Yunpian Cake is made sweeter than usual. I remember that my uncle loves sweet things the most, so I leave this box to you. , try it, is it really sweeter?"

Seeing the nervousness and worry in his eyes, Shi Zhilin picked up a piece of cloud cake and put it in his mouth, the soft cake melted in his mouth, it was as light as a cloud, and the slight sweetness seemed to dispel the cloud: "It's very sweet."

Xin Tianhe's eyes lit up, he handed the box to Shi Zhilin, and said happily, "If you like it, I'll go down the mountain tomorrow and buy it for you."

Shi Zhilin rubbed his head: "I don't need you to buy it. Didn't my uncle say that in the future, my uncle will buy all your dim sum?"

Xin Tianhe nodded: "Then next time you go down the mountain, my little uncle will buy it for me."

In the next few days, Shi Zhilin's small courtyard was extremely lively, classmates and senior brothers who came and went, invited him to play chess, to drink tea, or to discuss with him, to try

The downhill... From sunrise to sunset, there is not a moment of silence.

Shi Zhilin sometimes has some kind of illusory and trance thoughts, feeling that nothing has happened yet, he is still the child under the protection of his uncle and elder brother, but when the night is quiet, when the eyes are open and sleepless, he can clearly see Realized that there was no going back.

It was another full moon day, Shi Zhilin went to the window, and saw the clear light falling on the ground thoughtfully, so it was the Mid-Autumn Festival?

He touched the colorful rope on his wrist, turned around and took out the retrospective mirror, and once again entered the day when Shi's family was destroyed.

Walking through a field of corpses, he walked into his brother's study room, then knelt on the messy ground, found four colorful ropes one by one, tied one of them to his wrist, and put the other three in his arms, finally , I was finally able to close my eyes with peace of mind in this pool of blood.

The Dragon Boat Festival is over, and the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival is a good day, so let the murderers pay their debts with blood.
