Chapter 165: The Followers
The two of them flew far away without seeing any people, but there were many ruins of towns on the ground, the magnificent buildings that had been created quickly with talismans and spells had disappeared cleanly, and the houses built by mortals with their hands brick by brick were still in ruins.
At dusk, they stopped in the center of a small city, which was supposed to be the seat of the government, and many talismans had been used in the first construction, but now the talismans were gone, and only a solid stone was left, and they could not bear their weight without external help.
The surrounding houses are still standing, the courtyard wall is overgrown with weeds, Mu Xingqiu picked up a stone and threw it into the nearest courtyard, when there was a sound, I don't know what kind of little beasts were running around in the grass, driving the weeds to shake constantly.
Qin Lingshuang laughed softly, "You're still so naughty. ”
"I used to ......" Mu Xingqiu remembered Zuo Liuying's reminder and didn't ask any more, and he was a little uneasy, afraid to know about his past with Qin Lingshuang, "Is Mu Dong'er's injury completely healed?"
Qin Lingshuang shook her head, "There are still hidden dangers, we must find the Nine Great Treasures, I have four, you and Mu Dong'er each have one, and I also have Si Mingding, Demon Suppression Bell and Demon Pulling Cave." Since you and the Nianxin heirs escaped, I don't know if the Demon Pulling Cave is still there, don't care about it for now, the Demon Suppression Bell was taken away by Xiang Haisheng, and now it is likely to fall into the hands of Zuo Liuying, Si Mingding is probably in Chaojing Mountain, it is said that a group of female Taoist priests have gathered there, and the leader calls himself 'Nine Immortals', I think we should start with them. ”
Mu Xingqiu had already inquired about the news, and his thoughts were the same as Qin Lingshuang's, in fact, the direction in which the two of them flew was towards Chaojing Mountain.
"Will they hand over Si Mingding?"
"We're just borrowing, it's really not good, you can promise them to send one more treasure afterwards, I have four, let them choose." I don't think any Taoist priest can refuse such a condition. ”
"I really don't know how to thank you. ”
"When you regain your memory, you'll know there's no need to thank me. ”
The two of them didn't have to rest, but Mu Xingqiu had many doubts in his heart, hoping to take this opportunity to ask clearly, "Do you recognize Zuo Liuying?"
"Well, Zuo Liuying used to be the head of the Pangshan Forbidden Secret Sect, and I was the disciple he personally selected. ”
"That's great, I need your advice: Should I trust him? He was very strange and first told me not to rush to get my memories back. Later, he told me that it was wrong to combine the three pills into one, and told me not to cast spells other than the talismans. But he did things for Kun Zhen and snatched many yuan babies. I'm a little confused. ”
Mu Xingqiu sighed, it was because of Zuo Liuying that he had been in a state of confusion and remained alienated from this world, even when he was saving people during the Five Elements Tribulation, he did not have strong empathy.
He hated it, it was like a long nightmare. He wished he had woken up sooner, but the other warned him to wake up as late as possible.
Qin Lingshuang thought for a while, "I am Zuo Liuying's disciple, but I have never known him. I only know one thing, obviously no one likes him, and even warns of him and hates him, but as long as Zuo Liuying is willing. Can make anyone trust him with all their hearts, even if you scold him in your heart and don't understand what he is going to do. But you'll still think he has a point. ”
Mu Xingqiu spread his hands, "That's right, that's what I think of him now, I thought I had fallen for a spell." ”
"Zuo Liuying is not using spells, but self-confidence, he has reason to be confident, for so many years, his predictions have always been unexpected, but always successful. ”
"So, I should do what he says?"
Qin Lingshuang stared at him, a little serious, this is a look that the dragon demon rarely shows, "No, do what you want, even when you trusted Zuo Liuying the most, you didn't obey him, that's not you, you are Mu Xingqiu, never admit defeat." It's like the telekinesis you use when you write a gag, the memory will be lost, it won't feel like it's you, you're still you. ”
Mu Xingqiu also stared at her, and there was a strange impulse in his heart, feeling that he could hug her and not be rejected. He didn't do it because he had a son and a partner who was supposed to be his wife, and the urge alone was already putting him to shame.
"I want to ...... It's better to go to Chaojing Mountain first, borrow Si Mingding, and then go to Broken Flow City to find Zuo Liuying. ”
"Defeating Zuo Liuying is a dream for many people, even if there is no agreement with Hongshan Taoist, even if he is not Kunzhuan's spokesperson, I hope to have the opportunity to fight him. Qin Lingshuang showed a hint of hope.
Ranjing Mountain was in the southwest, Broken Flow City was in the north, Qin Lingshuang looked north, Tianmu couldn't see so far, and the appearance of Broken Flow City appeared in her mind.
"And the Demon Venerable's Fa-rectification, you've also practiced, haven't you?"
Qin Lingshuang nodded.
"I don't trust Yi Shijun, he said that it will be three hundred years before he becomes a golem, but Yi Shijun was controlled by him after practicing for a long time, and I think the sooner this problem is solved, the better. Mu Xingqiu paused, he now has no reservations about Qin Lingshuang's trust, this is a trust that arises spontaneously, and he doesn't even need memory as a foundation, "I originally wanted to use the method of the demon clan to cultivate, but there are as many as 100,000 demons, and now there are very few people who can honor the Fa of the Demon Venerable, so I thought of another way, it's not very mature, it's just my crankiness." ”
Qin Lingshuang smiled slightly, "Maybe Zuo Liuying didn't let you retrieve your memories just for these nonsense thoughts, let's talk about it, you are the only person in this world who has the strength to serve the sun but doesn't have the corresponding memory, maybe you will have strange ideas." ”
Mu Xingqiu was a little embarrassed, when he walked around in Jiangnan to write talismans, he had received a lot of gratitude and praise, but he didn't feel as comfortable as Qin Lingshuang's few words, just like a student who was praised in public by Mr. Teaching, "You and I can absorb spells and transform them into mana, and I may find a way to do it." ”
"Hmm...... Go on. ”
"The deeper the demon cultivation, the stronger the physique, and the stronger the physique, the more likely it is to become a golem...... Unleash ......"
"Then absorb it when necessary. ”
Mu Xingqiu was very happy, "That's right, do you think it's feasible? I've forgotten all the methods of cultivation, and if I think about it, it may be a dead end." ”
Qin Lingshuang didn't answer immediately, thought carefully for a while, and suddenly pointed to a clump of weeds not far away. There was a rustle in the grass, and it wasn't a small beast that came out of it. Rather, it is a human form.
Yin Bushen crawled out of the grass and knelt on the ground, the expression on his face was like crying and laughing, "Don't do it, it's me." ”
"What are you doing here, where is Yi Shijun hiding?" Qin Lingshuang asked coldly, her little tenderness would only be revealed when she faced Mu Xingqiu alone.
"I brought it up on my own. ”
"You can track teleportation?"
"Huh? Teleportation...... This one, Lao Jun teleported with me, then threw me down and left on his own. The rest of the way I caught up on my own. Yin Bushen immediately changed his words, and a flattering smile appeared on his face, which was a wet and soft smile, "May I ask if you are a Qin Daoist or a Long Daoist?"
Qin Lingshuang did not answer.
"It should be Daoist Qin, you may not be very familiar with me, the dragon demon knows me, the little one is called Yin Bushen, and the relationship with Daozun is not ordinary. It's really very, very unusual, we used to live and die together, fight side by side, and go into the tiger's den in Longtan together, just like ...... It's like a father and son......" Yin Bushen found that Qin Lingshuang's gaze was getting colder and colder, and his voice was getting lower and lower.
Mu Xingqiu looked at Yin Bushen a few times. "You didn't say that when we first met. ”
In the Fu Imperial City, Yin Bushen became a human old man and talked with Mu Xingqiu. regarded him as a late-born junior, and didn't mention his former friendship at all.
"Because I heard that Daozun had amnesia, I ...... Daozun, Qin Daoshi. You take me in, I'll be a servant, I'm good at this, don't let me go back to Lao Jun, I don't want to be a living demon weapon, he will play with me to death!"
Qin Lingshuang said coldly, "What is the purpose of sending you here?"
"Lao Jun just threw me down and didn't say anything, I guess he wanted to show friendship. Yin Bushen got up, his wet eyes flashed with a cunning and pitiful glimmer, "I have an idea, since we have all studied the Demon Venerable Fa and are in danger of turning into a golem......, why don't we find a way together?"
"No, we don't need a slave, or another son. Qin Lingshuang glanced at Mu Xingqiu, and cast a spell to rise into the air with the two of them.
Yin Bu was in a hurry, his mind was spinning rapidly, trying to find a reason to stay with the two of them, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, "Mu Dong'er!"
"What's wrong with him?" Mu Xingqiu asked, Qin Lingshuang paused.
"Mu Dong'er is a beast master, and so am I, we can contact each other for a long time, since the Five Elements Tribulation killed a large number of humans and demon clans, this connection has become smoother, I guess it is the reason for the increase in beasts in the world, if you don't believe it, you can ask the dragon demon, she knows." ”
Qin Lingshuang was silent for a while, and said to Mu Xingqiu: "The beast master does have this ability, but the beast has abandoned him and gone to Mu Dong'er, he is not a real beast master. ”
"This is simple, I can recruit another strange beast at any time, such as ......" Yin Bushen still had some demonic power left in his body, stretched out his hand and pointed to the nearby grass, an unlucky gray rabbit flew out and fell into his hands, kicking his legs wildly, Yin Bushen said with a bitter face: "I, I'm going to establish a spirit rhino with it, it seems that no one has tried ordinary beasts yet, just start with me." ”
Yin Bushen stared at the gray rabbit, as if he was casting a spell, but the afterglow was peeking at the two people in the sky.
Mu Xingqiu glanced at Qin Lingshuang and said to Yin Bushen: "You can come with you, let the rabbit go, and there will be a chance to meet strange beasts in the future." ”
Yin Bushen was overjoyed, "Thank you Daozun, Daozun is a good person...... Daoist Qin is also a good person, and the battle of Broken Flow City back then was really ...... I didn't go to war, but I heard about it. Do you really want to throw away the rabbit? I'm also very good at cooking, and I can use it to stew meat. ”
Qin Lingshuang flew away with Mu Xingqiu, Yin Bushen hurriedly threw away the rabbit and followed, slowly reducing his mana, and found that Qin Lingshuang's flying technique had also expanded his body, his heart was a little calm, and he said casually: "It is said that the Spirit King led his army to leave the Wind Blocking Mountain a month ago and is heading south, and the reunion is imminent, Dao Zun must be very happy, right?"
Mu Xingqiu didn't even immediately react to who the Spirit King was, Qin Lingshuang cast a glance, his expression did not change, Yin Bushen was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to speak again, and began to believe that this Qin Daoist was an extremely tricky and powerful person.
