Chapter 9: The Choice of Living
When Liu Dapang was about to step forward to completely kill the person who had just stopped him, the soldier who had just been repelled by him pounced again, and the two fought again.
After a while, Feng Yun came to his senses, he had a splitting headache after a little movement, and there was a pain in his chest and abdomen, he slowly stood up, looked at his chest and abdomen, his clothes were torn to reveal a slashed scabbard, it turned out that Liu Da Pang had just been stabbed, and he coincidentally slashed at the dagger in Feng Yun's arms, which allowed him to save a small life.
Feng Yun took a few breaths with difficulty, and seeing that he couldn't change the situation in front of him, he felt anxious in his heart: "What should I do!" What to do! If this continues, everyone will die! ……”
He suddenly thought of the immortal master who had saved them before, he saw with his own eyes that the immortal master would shake the poisonous insect to death with a roar, and scare the demon away again, he looked around hoping to find the immortal master to save everyone. A moment later, he saw Zhang Shi sitting cross-legged in the air, and at this time Zhang Shi was already sweating profusely and his eyes were closed.
How did Feng Yun know that at this time, there was blood splattering everywhere, and the killing intent was even higher by the blood qi, making it more and more difficult for Zhang Shi to resist.
Seeing Zhang Shi sitting motionless in the air, Feng Yun guessed in disappointment, "Isn't the immortal master also ...... I don't know if the immortal master can recover, no, when the immortal master recovers, maybe everyone will die, it's all this cicada chirping, cicada chirping, that's right! It's this cicada! What happened before was so sudden that it shook his mind, and he didn't realize that the culprit was the piercing cicada.
"As long as you shut up this cicada, maybe it will ......" Feng Yun eagerly searched for the source of its cicada song, and soon he saw the blood-colored jade cicada that was strangely motionless in the air.
There seems to be a blood cloud rolling in the jade cicada, exuding a breathtaking atmosphere, people can't help but paint it redder to make it more beautiful, and the best pigment is naturally - blood! Feng Yun looked at it for a moment and then had a feeling of wanting to smear it with blood, "If there is no other people's blood, even if you cut open your own heart, you must make it more perfect." Just when Feng Yun couldn't stop thinking like this, the feeling of being illuminated by the sun just now came to his mind again, which suddenly made Feng Yun sober up a lot.
Feng Yun breathed a long sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on his head, and didn't dare to look at the blood-colored jade cicada anymore. "It's so dangerous, if I look at it any further, I may really commit suicide."
Feng Yun, who was sober, made a plan in a moment, simply bandaged the wound on his head, and checked his small crossbow, but fortunately, Zhao Quan found a craftsman in the army to make this small crossbow for him very strong and not damaged. Armed with a small crossbow, Feng Yun carefully avoided the soldiers who were fighting and approached the jade cicada.
Soon after, Feng Yun finally climbed a city tower, this is the closest place Feng Yun can reach the jade cicada, and the blood-colored jade cicada can be seen outside the window, which is about sixteen steps away from the jade cicada, fortunately, it is within the range of the small crossbow, and the bad thing is that Feng Yun's small crossbow only has three special crossbow arrows, and he is a little unsure of the jade cicada that is not as big as his palm in the three arrows, and the cicada here is piercing and terrifying, even if Feng Yun plugs his ears with a cloth, the cicada chirping is still pouring into his brain, It made him feel like his head was going to explode from the wound in the next moment.
Feng Yun lay on the window, carefully aiming at the jade cicada in the posture he felt most stable, and every moment of aiming, Feng Yun would close his eyes and recall the feeling of the golden light shining before to dispel the discomfort in his body.
Taking a deep breath slowly, Feng Yun felt that he was almost aim, and with a sound of strings, Feng Yun shot out the first crossbow arrow, but unfortunately the crossbow arrow was an inch away from the jade cicada. Pull the string again, put on the crossbow arrow, adjust the aim according to the previous position, and shoot the second arrow again, but the second arrow is half an inch away in the opposite direction.
Feng Yun scolded secretly, put the last crossbow arrow on the ground, his hands couldn't help but tremble a little, closed his eyes, and soothed the heart that was about to pop out of his chest, he muttered in a small voice: "God forbid, save the fat uncle and them, let me shoot that damn cicada." ”
He gritted his silver teeth, adjusted his posture, then closed his eyes, temporarily dislodged the sound of the cicada, and finally opened his eyes and steadily shot the last crossbow arrow!
In an instant, the crossbow arrow went straight towards the jade cicada, and then it was almost a fraction of a second wrong with the jade cicada.
Feng Yun's mind also didn't know where to fly along with the last crossbow arrow, and it took a moment to come to his senses, and then his already pale face became even more pale, his whole body trembled, and tears couldn't stop coming out. Despair and disappointment made him curl up on the ground, as if afraid of being discovered, trying not to let the sobs come out.
After a while, an irrepressible anger spread from Feng Yun's heart. Feng Yun stood up, his eyes were red, and he roared with a hideous face: "You won't let me live!" Don't let the fat uncle live now! Why do we have to meet with such a thing? Why! While roaring, Feng Yun threw the small crossbow next to him towards the jade cicada, followed by the scabbard, dagger, shoes, and cotton clothes...... Seeing that there was nothing to throw on his body, Feng Yun rushed into the building like a crazy bull, searching everywhere for objects that could be thrown, and then threw them at the jade cicada.
I don't know how many things were thrown, but with a "ding" sound, Feng Yun's body froze, and he only felt that the world seemed to be suspended, and it was quiet.
Only for a moment! Zhang Shi's eyes opened suddenly, and with the momentum of thunder, he sent a full blow towards the blood-colored jade cicada with a stagnant voice! The condensed true yuan was like a cyan sword with a dazzling light that struck the blood-colored jade cicada, instantly shattering the jade cicada, and then bursting out a large amount of fishy blood, almost dyeing most of the Baishan Pass crimson.
The blue light flashed, and seeing the jade cicada being shattered, Feng Yun's heart was suddenly relieved, and after exhaling a breath, he felt that his eyes were black and fell to the ground.
……
Feng Yun opened his eyes, his face was confused, he had a long dream, in the dream he was no longer a weak Feng Mian, but an immortal master who knew magic? There was also a girl in white who couldn't see her face clearly in the dream, and Feng Yun felt warm in his heart when he looked at her.
"Orchid scent ......"
It seemed that they heard Feng Yun's murmuring, and Zhang Shi and the others also found that Feng Yun was awake.
Zhang Shi stretched out his hand to give Feng Yun another pulse, and then said, "Well, it's okay for the time being. ”
Liu Dapang and Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and quickly sent someone to find Zhao Quan.
Feng Yun came back to his senses at this time, and saw that the person who called for his pulse was the immortal master who had saved them before, and he immediately wanted to sit up, but then he felt a little dizzy.
Zhang Shi gently helped him up, put a pillow on his back and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you have slept for two days, and your body is a little stiff and slow." ”
Feng Yun felt that the dizziness was slowly subducing, and when he heard Zhang Shi's words, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Two days? That ......" turned his head and saw Liu Dapang and Li Ye both standing next to him and looking at him with a smile, "...... It seems that Baishan Pass should be fine. ”
Liu Dapang nodded and replied, "Don't worry, the demon road has run away, and the Beiban has also retreated." ”
Seeing that Liu Dapang was wrapped in a cloth towel but his hands and feet were there, his complexion was not too bad, as for Li Ye, except for his face being a little sad, his body was fine, Feng Yun also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked instead: "What about the general, Uncle Yu, and Master Liu?" ”
The atmosphere was a little sluggish, Liu Dapang looked at Feng Yun for a moment, sighed and said: "The marshal only suffered some flesh wounds, so he broke an arm, and he may not be able to be the marshal's personal soldier, as for General Liu...... By the time we found out, he had fallen with a few other brothers. ”
Speechless for a while, Feng Yun's eyes were a little red, and his silver teeth were clenched. "If I could have shot that cicada down sooner, maybe ......"
As if seeing what Feng Yun was thinking, Zhang Shi said softly: "Don't think too much, you did your best, that's why so many people are still alive." He shook his head remorsefully, "Speaking of which, I didn't save them, but I didn't expect that person to have such a magic weapon." ”
At this time, a person came in from outside the house, it was Zhao Quan, who was still recuperating because of his serious injuries and did not follow him.
Zhao Quan saluted Zhang Shi first before looking at Feng Yun: "You woke up, the immortal master said that you were tired and weak, and thought you would sleep for a while." ”
After comforting Feng Yun for a few words, Zhao Quan turned his head to ask Zhang Shi for advice: "Immortal Master Zhang, you have crossed the pulse for Feng Yun, I don't know his cold ......"
Two days ago, Zhao Quan has been running day and night to clean up the mess of Baishan Pass, so he has time to ask Zhang Shi for advice, although I don't know how Feng Yun did it, but I heard Zhang Shi say that it was Feng Yun who broke the demon magic at the critical moment and saved everyone, with such a great achievement, it is not rude to ask the immortal master to diagnose and treat Feng Yun's cold.
Hearing Zhao Quan's question, Zhang Shi's smiling face also calmed down, and there was a dead silence in the room, I don't know if it angered the immortal master, and everyone was a little worried.
Seeing that everyone's expressions were sick, Zhang Shi returned to his senses and said: "I have already heard about this child's illness and origin, but unfortunately, I can't do anything about it." ”
Without waiting for everyone to open their mouths, Zhang Shi continued: "This child's illness is not an ordinary cold disease, that Wang Divine Doctor said that his yin qi has penetrated into the marrow and damaged the foundation, which is not bad but only half right. You don't know the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, so you don't know that if the soul of the living soul encounters a tragedy, it will produce death and resentment, and if there is a suitable time and a suitable object, these heaven and earth will automatically gather, or turn into a ghost or infect the living to make them unconscious and decay their vitality, and the newborn child with no resistance and pure soul is the best object. ”
Saying that, Zhang Shi looked at Feng Yun: "It's not easy for you to live until now. It's a pity that all the methods I know of can get rid of the yin and death resentment in your body are too harsh, and it is difficult for your body to get through it, and it is more likely that you will die on the way to get rid of it. ”
Hearing this, Liu Dapang was a little difficult to accept, and couldn't help but interject: "It's just some dead anger and resentment, how can it stump the immortals, immortal master, think about it again!" Maybe ......"
"Liu Dapang must not be rude!" Zhao Quan was afraid that Liu Dapang would anger the immortal master, so he quickly interrupted.
Zhang Shi waved his hand to show that it was okay, and sighed: "You are right, the immortals will definitely not be stumped." But we are only immortal cultivators, not immortals. Although I can regulate his body and prevent him from dying early, the resentment will still torment him for a lifetime. ”
The room fell silent again, Feng Yun sat on the bed and was a little distracted, finally knowing his true condition, although he had already accepted the fate of his early death, but at this moment there were still ripples in his heart.
"Even the immortal master can't help it, it seems that it's really fate. Fortunately, Uncle Fat, Uncle Zhao, and Li Langzhong were all saved, maybe God also thought that my short-lived ghost was too unlucky, and helped me......"
Zhang Shi didn't know that Feng Yun was out of the world at this time, so he just said to Zhao Quan and the others: "You guys go out first, I have something to say to Feng Yun alone." ”
Although Zhao Quan and Liu Dapang were a little worried, they thought that the immortal master would not harm a child, so they still walked out as instructed and closed the door, letting the two talk alone.
Feng Yun didn't know what Zhang Shi wanted to talk about with him alone, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart.
Seeing Feng Yun's cramped appearance, Zhang Shi said as kindly as possible: "Don't worry, I just have something I want to ask you, and it doesn't matter if I can't answer it." ”
Feng Yun was slightly relieved and replied, "Immortal Master, please speak." ”
"How did you not get affected by that cicada?"
Hearing Zhang Shi's question, Feng Yun also remembered the scene at that time, and couldn't help but answer with some doubts: "...... I don't know very well, but I just felt like I wanted to kill someone, but I felt a sudden light shining on me, and I was awake and my body was not so uncomfortable. After that, he looked at Zhang Shi with some anxiety, afraid that Zhang Shi would not believe it.
Zhang Shi naturally saw that Feng Yun was not lying, he had already checked Feng Yun's body, except for being violated by the Yin Death Resentment, there was nothing special, and he also fell into doubts in his heart: "Could it be that which senior passed by with great power, so he borrowed this child's hand to help me?" ”
After thinking about it for a long time, no matter how he thought about it, there were a lot of strange things, and Zhang Shi could only shake his head helplessly and continue to look at Feng Yun: "Although I can't do anything about your illness, in order to thank you for helping me a lot this time, I still prepared a few thank-you gifts, you can choose one of them." ”
Feng Yun showed a hint of anticipation, waiting for Zhang Shi to speak.
"The first choice is to give you a wealth and wealth, I will condition your body, and then give you wealth in the world, so that you can live to the age of fifty and have good clothes and food, and live a worry-free life."
"The second option is to give you a future, I will still condition your body so that you can live to be fifty years old, but no longer give you wealth, but give you the scriptures of governing the country, to ensure that you are infinitely useful, and you can make a name for yourself."
"And the third option is to give you a possibility." Speaking of this, Zhang Shi laughed.
And Feng Yun was puzzled: "Maybe? ”
Zhang Shi nodded: "Yes, possibly." You may be immortal, or you may be dying, but both will be bitter. ”
Feng Yun seemed to have realized something, and asked boldly, "...... You, do you mean to make me an immortal like you, an immortal cultivator? ”
Seeing that Feng Yun immediately realized what he meant, Zhang Shi couldn't help but nod in his heart: "This kid is indeed as smart as they say. ”
But Zhang Shi's face became serious: "Yes." If you want to live, you can only pursue the immortal path. But the path of cultivation is like ascending to the sky, you may be the enemy of the fierce beasts that split the mountains and rocks, you may be the enemy of the demons of the evil sect, sometimes you may be the enemy of other cultivators, and even one of them may be your fellow disciples, even if you can achieve something, you will have to face the terrible catastrophe in the end, it can be said that if you are not careful, you may never recover! ”
What Zhang Shi said was a bit one-sided, but it was undoubtedly from the bottom of his heart.
"All three choices are up to you, it's up to you to choose. Choose one and you will be rich for a lifetime. Choose either and you'll be famous. If you choose the third, you may be able to live a long life, or you may regret not doing it at the beginning. How is it? ”
