Chapter 13: Gaze
Changping Mansion in March is the time of the cold spring.
There is a little coolness in the air, although it does not have the harshness of winter, but it has the humidity and permeability that are unique to spring.
As usual, Erhu pushed open the gate of Zhuangzi, waved a large broom, and began to sweep the ground in front of the courtyard.
used to be a simple boy, but now he has grown into a tough young man, his young face is not handsome, but it is engraved with resolute lines, quite a bit of manhood.
Although he was doing the trivial work of cleaning, the young man did it very seriously, and he had his own law one by one.
If you look closely, you will see that the big broom has not actually touched the ground, and it has not even touched any dust. The broom is like an invisible cover, isolating the broom from contact with dust.
After a while, Erhu finished clearing the ground, looked up at the sky, didn't see the figure he was expecting, sighed, put away his broom and went back to the courtyard.
Walking through the long corridor, Erhu returned to the courtyard where he lived.
He took a deep breath and began to punch.
This is a set of King Kong Tiger Boxing, taking the road of fierce and strong, hard bridge and hard horse, which is the best for polishing muscles and bones, tempering physique, and also has a strong actual combat effect.
Erhu has been practicing this set of boxing for more than a year, and he has long been familiar with it, but for some reason, he always feels that something is missing.
At this moment, he made a breath down, and when he hit the thirty-sixth punch and angrily descended on the mad tiger, he only felt that he couldn't catch it in one breath, and his body shook a few times, and he almost fell.
"Still not successful!" Erhu sat on the ground in frustration.
Suddenly feeling that there was someone behind him, Erhu turned around and saw a person standing not far away, his whole body was covered under a black cloak, and he didn't see his body, only his face was covered with a blood-red mask.
Seeing this person, Erhu let out a sigh: "It turned out to be Mr. Ghost, you scared me to death." ”
The ghost guard didn't say a word, but suddenly pulled a posture, and the second tiger could see clearly that it was the mad tiger he had just made angry.
Seeing that the ghost guard's fist was released and released, he made a fluttering action, and a strong wind hit him, giving the two tigers a momentum like a vast ocean.
Erhu was stunned for a moment, then understood, and said happily: "Thank you Mr. Ghost for teaching me." ”
It was already according to the previous comparison of the ghost guard, and he did it again, carefully feeling the connotation of the blow just now.
Erhu is actually not a genius, but he is better than with a calm temperament, perseverance, and a very solid foundation. Back then, he was able to practice by himself for many years without knowing any cultivation methods, which shows that he was born to gnaw hard bones.
This set of Vajra Tiger Fist looks simple, but in fact, it is a very good battle method in the Tianhuo Tower, easy to enter but difficult to master, and it is not suitable for people with perseverance to practice this battle method.
At this moment, he pondered repeatedly, and suddenly a punch burst out, the fist wind shook, and the wind and thunder were hidden, and the second tiger blurted out: "It's done!"
But he finally really used the thirty-sixth punch that had been bothering him for a long time.
I was about to thank the ghost guard, but I saw that the ghost guard had turned around and left.
Erhu knew that the ghost guard had always been like this, and it was not surprising. Seeing that it was almost daylight, he went to the kitchen and took a large piece of the loin of the Wind Green Beast, threw it into the air, and waved it several times in the air with a kitchen knife, and when the ridge fell, it had become dozens of neat pieces.
Throwing it into the cauldron and putting water, the two tigers snapped their fingers, and the firewood under the stove was already lit. Erhu blew a breath into the hearth, and under this breath, the flame burned more and more, and boiled the water in a moment, and without waiting for the meat to be fully cooked, Erhu scooped up the pieces of meat with his bare hands, and then laid them one by one, poured some soy sauce on a small saucer, and then waved his hand, and the flame in the stove was extinguished.
The second tiger has already held this basin of tenderloin and walked in.
The ridge here is the flesh of the big demon, containing countless flesh and blood essence, which can be called a great tonic, so it is not suitable to cook for too long, just a little processing.
The two tigers deal with these every day, and they know that they are precious, but they have never had the slightest intention of stealing food.
At this moment, he came to a side room with the meat, and Erhu respectfully put it down at the door, and without saying much, he retreated to the rear, but he was still curious in his eyes.
It's been three years.
It's been three years since he came here, but Erhu only knows how to send food here every day according to Tang Zheng's instructions, but he never knows who lives here.
He wasn't even sure if there was anyone inside.
Although the food delivered every day was eaten, Erhu never heard a trace of movement from inside.
Today he was about to leave as usual, when he suddenly saw a large fire surging in the house.
Erhu was startled, this was the first time he had seen movement in this house, but he didn't expect the movement to be so big.
It was as if something had burst out of its shell, and the glowing flames continued to leap, releasing terrifying energy. What is shocking is that the whole room seems to be protected by something, and the fire is so fierce that it can't burn a single grass or tree in the house. Whenever the firelight hits various parts of the house, it is reflected by a white light. The flames were like a trapped beast in a cage, raging wildly and colliding, but they could not break through this invisible barrier.
Suddenly, Erhu saw a crack open in the invisible qi wall. The gap is very small, and it disappears as soon as it appears, but at this moment, a heat wave has risen outside the house, sweeping in, and the two tigers can even see that on the way through the heat wave, the loin of the pot of wind and green beasts seems to have experienced thousands of years of time and space, and the brush has turned into powder and dissipated.
The heat wave continued to blow, and the two tigers stood in a daze, unaware that death was coming.
That's when he heard a sigh.
"Master!" Erhu blurted out.
Then he rolled his eyes and knew nothing.
―――――――――――
When he opened his eyes, Erhu saw that he was lying on the bed, wrapped like a zongzi.
Not far away, a familiar figure stood, staring at him.
"Master, you're back. Erhu struggled to remember.
Tang Zheng held him down: "The injury is not good, don't move." ”
"Master, what's wrong with me?" Before Erhu finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain all over his body, and the pain was so painful that he almost fainted on the spot.
"I was burned by the aftermath of the Burial God Flame, and it is a great luck to not die. Tang Zai said as he took out a small jade bottle, and a drop of juice dripped from the bottle and fell into the mouth of the second tiger. Erhu only felt a sweetness spread from his lips, along the esophagus all the way to his body, and the pain on his body immediately disappeared a lot: "It just so happened that I accepted the commission this time and got a bottle of Baihua Jade Dew Essence back, and now it's good, it's all cheap, you kid." ”
"Burial Divine Flame?" Erhu's expression was still confused, obviously completely unaware of what was going on.
He didn't know that at the moment when he delivered the meal, the cultivation of the clone in the house was at a critical moment.
In the past three years, in addition to the normal improvement and cultivation, the clone has been working hard to refine the Burial God Flame.
However, this thing is worthy of being one of the divine fires in the world, even if it has been refined for three full years with the backfire technique, Tang Zheng has not been able to truly subdue this tyrannical flame, and even in the process of trying to refine, he accidentally let a trace of heat overflow outside the room.
Although it was only the aftermath of the aftermath, this heat was enough to kill the second tiger dozens of times, but fortunately, the clone immediately made a decision and added a shield to the second tiger in time, even so, the trace of flame flow through the shield still burned the second tiger to serious injury.
Fortunately, the ontology has completed the commission at this time, and is on the way back, rushing back all the way, so that he can be regarded as saving the life of the second tiger.
"Don't talk about that now. Tang Zheng said: "It's not good to absorb the medicinal power, run the aura, and absorb the medicinal power in the five internal organs." Fire and poison attack the heart, the Lord protects the heart!"
As he spoke, he counted the dots on Erhu's body, and Erhu only felt a warm current swim along his body. Tang Zheng slowly recited a mantra, and the two tigers operated according to the mantra, and the medicinal power no longer diverged, but turned into concentration, moving towards the heart. The price of this approach is that Erhu once again feels great pain.
"Hold back, Baihua Jade Dew Essence is an elixir that regulates the internal organs, you haven't entered the ninth revolution, you can't use this medicine originally, and the excessive medicinal power will only make you burn inside. But now you are attacking the heart with fire and poison, and under the hedging of medicinal power and firepower, you will not be afraid of this disaster. Seize the opportunity, slowly absorb the medicinal power and firepower, and strengthen yourself, maybe you can get a blessing in disguise and greatly improve your strength, which can be regarded as an adventure. But if you can't take it, forget it. ”
Erhu gritted his teeth and replied, "Master, I can hold on." ”
"Good. If you pass this level, I will take you as a disciple. Tang Zheng said lightly.
Although Erhu has always called him master, Tang Zheng has never really accepted him as an apprentice.
These three years can be regarded as a test of the second tiger's heart, and only through his own test will Tang Zheng consider really accepting him.
Hearing this, the two tigers were overjoyed.
It's been three years, I've been waiting for three years, I've been waiting for this day, and I've finally waited for this sentence today.
At that moment, it seemed that all the pain was not so terrible.
Looking at Erhu's excited appearance, Tang Zheng sighed softly.
Erhu finally waited for what he wanted, so what about himself?
How long will it take?
As if he had seen Tang Zheng's thoughts, Erhu asked softly, "Master, is it that this time, I didn't find the dragon bone Zhi Ling?"
Tang Zheng shook his head: "Dragon Bone Zhi Ling...... A supreme elixir that grows on the bones of a true dragon. Without a real dragon, there would be no it, how easy it would be to get. ”
"Master, don't worry, the Qingyun Realm is so big, there should always be a real dragon for thousands of years. Erhu replied.
Tang Zai smiled bitterly: "How the real dragon is so existing, located in Sendai, high above." The pool in the Qingyun Realm is too small, and I'm afraid it won't be able to raise such a big dragon. ”
"Not necessarily. Isn't there still a legend of the Immortal of the Enlightenment on the Pilgrimage Mountain? That is not comparable to the real dragon. In that case, why can't there be a real dragon anymore? It's just that my human race is in danger, and its power can't spread all over the Qingyun Realm, so it's difficult to find it. Erhu replied with a smile in pain.
"yes. Tang Zheng muttered: "After all, my human race is weak, and it is difficult to find the whole world. Maybe...... Maybe in the land of the demon clan, there is what I want?"
Tang Zheng's eyes had already shone brightly.
Erhu was frightened by Tang Zheng's self-talk: "Master, you don't want to go to the demon clan, do you?"
Tang Zheng didn't answer, just stared out the window deeply.
