21. In this life, I seek a confidant

Seeing the old man's frightened appearance, Canghu asked, "Hasn't that formation taken effect?"

Sha De chuckled, his tone became gloomy, and said: "Take effect? Why hasn't it taken effect? Before the wandering sand appeared, more than 20 of us really had nightmares, and everyone was very excited, but the time for the consummation of this merit was finally coming."

On that day, Master went to us all and said, 'I have learned of the will of the king of Hades, and I know that my disciple intends to chase after the 'wandering sand' so that I can practice miraculous skills. This is a very dangerous move and is not tolerated by the rules of the association. I hereby warn you: Anyone who goes through a dream and wants to find a miracle will abolish his martial arts and be expelled from his master's sect. ’

You look at me, you look at me, I look at you, I can't believe my ears. This is obviously a once-in-a-lifetime and supreme glory thing, why does Master not allow it?

But the master's order was difficult to disobey, and we returned to the martial arts field in a gloomy manner, and some young disciples cried loudly. Everyone is in a bad mood, just because of all these years of hard work, the longing they have dreamed of, but because of Master's words, who is not extremely angry?

At this time, the senior brother, the second senior brother, and the third senior brother discussed for a while, and said, "It must be that the master and the senior uncle have also dreamed of themselves, and they were chosen by the king of the alien beast Hades, and they were afraid that we would fight with him, so they arbitrarily stopped us. Today's plan is to strike first. ’

This ploy is not evil, but none of us have any objections. At that time, everyone's admiration for those three people far exceeded their respect for the master, and they were like crazy and enchanted, only thinking about the wonderful realm after practicing the divine skills.

So that night, everyone moved and killed the master and uncle.

They died a miserable death, with their bowels disemboweled, their white beards turning red, and their eyes widening as they looked at us promising. We have blood on our hands, and we have all become bloody people. The senior brother said, this is the true meaning of the teaching of the alien beast Hades, the old man dies, the strong survive, we are stronger than the master, and we should welcome the baptism of the wandering sand.

Everyone will not do anything, and those who are not with us will all be eradicated. So everyone split up and broke into the rest of the temple to kill people until there were only 20 of us left in this beast club.

Everyone is very tired, but also very satisfied, because we have practiced the avenue, really made sacrifices, sacrificed relatives, sacrificed humanity. Therefore, we are convinced that we will be the only ones who have survived the wandering sands for thousands of years.

On that day, when we found the wandering sand, Senior Brother activated the large array he had laid out. I saw the sky blood red, and a huge ball floating overhead, larger than the clouds added together, and indeed obscuring the sun's rays.

We feel the impulse, the strange impulse, the thoughts of the people around us come to us, we hear it clearly, they calculate, they hold grudges, they are on guard, they are prepared, they will kill at any time, no matter who that person is, they will not hesitate to kill.

Then everyone took action and used the most cruel and ruthless means to kill the only remaining companions around them, who were originally regarded as brothers and sisters.

My mind was a blur, as if I was about to drown in blood, and only killing could give me a breath. I'll pounce on Senior Brother Guo first..."

Canghu immediately asked, "Is Senior Brother Guo Guo Xuan'ao?"

Shade nodded and smiled: "Yes, yes, it's him." He was stabbed in the vest by my sword and fell to the ground. Then, in front of his eyes, I killed his most beloved sister. Blood stained the yellow sand, and the yellow sand flew in the wind, obscuring my vision, and I could only see a vague figure that was both a terrible and cunning predator and a prey necessary for survival, and I did not hesitate to rush at them, knowing that if I did not kill them, I would be killed by them.

We kill because we are religious, and that piety will bring us joy and glory, even if it is a comrade-in-arms who was once close to us. I had a vague thought: why is the great array that has been laid out useless, shouldn't we share the grace of God together? But under the madness, there is no time to think about it.

When the blood mist and flying sand calmed down, I was dying, fell to the ground, and saw the wandering sand slowly falling, the senior brother, the second senior brother, and the third senior brother stood straight, and none of the rest could get up. In this massacre, in addition to the twenty of us, hundreds of people died, but the three of them were not even stained with blood.

I heard the elder brother say, 'Why is Shade still alive?'

The second senior brother said: "Kill and kill, it's very easy." ”

The third senior brother shook his head and said, "He won't live long, and wandering will solve it for us." Hurry up and get into the sand ball and reap the power of Hades. ”

The second senior brother asked again: "Are we really not going to die?"

The senior brother smiled and said, "How can we regret it now? We are so sober, I think it is mostly feasible." ”

I then realized that their so-called Great Array of Life and Death Reincarnation could only save the three of them, and the rest of the senior brothers had been sacrifices to the three of them from the very beginning. When we were dog-eat-dog, fighting machetes, they were hiding in one place, watching us safely.

The same is true of the dead masters and apprentices.

I laughed angrily, but the yellow sand poured into my mouth. Isn't this exactly the teachings of the beasts? They are believers who truly understand the doctrine, and we who are credulous and blindly worship are just sacrifices for their hunting.

I saw them swallowed up by the wandering sands, and I never saw them again. ”

Dong Caiying said angrily: "What those three bastards have done, they are really crazy, and they are not even as good as beasts!

Canghu also secretly thought: "If I meet those three people, I have to fight with them, alas, it's a pity that if I want to defeat them, I have to go hand in hand with Guo Xuanao, and my martial arts are still far behind." ”

"I don't know where the three of them are, and I don't know what happened to them. But from that day on, until now, the wandering sand has never appeared again. I reckon that the time may be near. The eye of the strange beast worked with the Snake Emperor, and most of them came for this matter. ”

Canghu asked, "I wonder how my predecessors survived?"

Shade sighed: "It's me too.... I don't deserve to die. The wandering sand buzzed and turned, and I felt the blood on my body flowing out of the Heavenly Spirit Cover, flying into the air, I didn't feel pain, but I knew that I was going to die, and I was even more terrified, but at this moment, I... I was suddenly swallowed up in quicksand.

The sand flowed like a tide into the unfathomable depths of the earth. Then I fell on top of the sand, surrounded by a vast underground cavern, and occasionally a faint light flickered to allow me to see my surroundings.

I was so badly wounded that I lost eighty percent of my life, either from illness or starvation. At that time, I had fully figured out the cause and effect, but after all, hatred still won over the wicked. But according to the teachings of the Alien Beast Society, the three of them are actually not evildoers, but they have truly carried forward their purpose.

I slept for several days, and I could not tell the difference between day and night, but one day a man passed by, and carried me on my shoulder, and walked a far, long way, to an underground spring, and he gave me water to drink, and let me eat some fish, and then I woke up and saw who the man was. ”

Canghu asked, "Is it Guo Xuanao?"

Sha De smiled: "The general guessed correctly, it was Senior Brother Guo who saved me." It turned out that when he was seriously injured, for some reason, he heard someone pass him a sword technique. The sword technique was extremely difficult to understand, but at that time, he was on the verge of death like me, and he opened his mind in an instant. According to that method, he gathered his true qi into a sharp blade and stabbed it under the yellow sand, and he actually moved his whole body with a single shot, causing continuous quicksand, and he sank down first, and unintentionally saved my life.

Senior Brother Guo came here to catch the fish in the water to eat, the fish was very fat, and the healing effect was wonderful, and the sword technique he practiced made him get a glimpse of an unprecedented wonderful realm, enhance his physique, and actually healed from it.

He came to me and wanted to kill me with a sword, but he spared me the life of the man who saved his life, and he could only do so. He took care of me for many days and I gradually got better. We continued to grope forward, and finally met the great benefactor. ”

Canghu said in his heart: "Although the sword technique practiced by Guo Xuanao is flawed, it is the same origin as his father's swordsmanship, could it be that the great benefactor is actually his father? But that was hundreds of years ago, and most of it was not him." ”

Sha De said: "I saw a slimy pool of water, the pool of water was full of red glue mud water, that person... The man was a thin black-bearded strange man in the muddy water, his whole face was covered by his hair and beard, and he had a certain smell on him, which made people not help but be afraid, as if he would die if he looked at him. ”

My brother and I kowtowed to him, and he came out of the mud and put on his dirty clothes, and when we asked him his name, he said, 'I am a friend, and you two can call me a friend.' I'm very old, so you might as well call me an old friend. ’

Pan Shuqi said: "Old friend, this name must be fake." ”

Sha De said: "Even if it's fake, we are generally grateful." ”

Canghu smiled and said: "After all, this old friend is a bad move, if it is me, he will call himself 'Ye', if you see that I am not young, you will call me 'Ye Ye', how comfortable does that sound?"

Wan Lian chirped: "Who is as boring as you? ”

Shade said: "This senior.... He didn't want to take advantage of others, so he ignored me, but turned to Senior Brother Guo, and said, "I have lived for a long time, I have been wandering, I have countless names in my life, and I have heard of endless secrets. As soon as I saw you, I knew that you would be great in the future, and I remember that there was a kung fu that seemed to be attached to you, and since I met here, how about I pass it on to you?'

Senior Brother Guo was overjoyed and thanked him even more diligently, so his 'old friend' predecessor passed on his 'Netherworld Sword Technique', and then said: 'What I have learned is too complicated, and this kung fu is not well conceived, it can be said that I gave up halfway, and half of the fetus was stillborn. But I firmly believe that there was a full picture of this sword technique in the world, but it only passed through time and left a little imprint on my mind. This sword technique was originally called 'killing', but because of its shortcomings, it was renamed the Netherworld. ’”

The two of us wanted to stay by his side and serve him, but the old friend resolutely refused to allow him, saying that he was ominous and easy to harm the people around him, and stubbornly sent the two of us away.

When I got out of the cave, Senior Brother Guo cut off my hands and feet and said, 'You killed the woman I loved most in my life, I should have killed you to avenge it, but you were also deceived, and I will spare you from death.' ’

I knew that I was guilty of a great sin, and I was willing to suffer it, and then Senior Brother Guo sent me to this town, where there was the former site of the Alien Beast Society, and I was separated from him since then, and in a blink of an eye, three hundred years have passed. ”
