Chapter 27 Burning Scrolls
In the fire, Yang Ning saw clearly that this place was a broken ancestral hall. It seemed that there should have lived in this neighborhood, but later it was abandoned for some reason.
The statue originally worshipped in the ancestral hall had fallen down from the platform, broken into several pieces, covered with thick dust and spider webs, and it was hard to see which immortal it was.
However, this tower is quite high, and it is built with stones above Yang Ning's chest. I think it took a lot of effort to build the ancestral hall.
There was no pot and bowl in his hand. Yang Ning searched for a while before finding an incense burner in the ruins. It should be used for sacrifices. It was very dirty. When he went outside, he washed it carefully with rainwater. It was still not very clean. He could only put it in half the stove of rainwater, took it back and set it on the fire and started to burn it.
He went over and took Xiao Guang's clothes and put them by the fire, so that it would be easy to dry them. He thought to himself that I have done my best to you. If I hadn't met my best man in this world, your life would have been rewarded.
Suddenly, I thought that the horse was still outside. I was anxious before and carried Xiao Guang in first. After a while, I forgot that the horse was not tied up yet.
He hurried out and his heart sank. He saw that the horse was gone. He searched around the ancestral hall, but he didn't find the horse's trace. He was very angry and secretly annoyed how he could have such negligence and wanted to find the horse. However, this rainy night was in a state of terror, and he was so angry that he returned to the ancestral hall. Seeing Xiao Guang lying quietly, he thought that if it weren't for saving you, I wouldn't have lost the horse, and I wanted to pull Xiao Guang up and beat him up.
When the water in the incense burner became hot, Yang Ning took the incense burner away, hung it for a while, and tried the warmth of the water. Then he helped Xiao Guang up and put the warm water close to his mouth. Xiao Guang's eyes were half open, but he opened his mouth, took a few sips, and then shook his head gently. Yang Ning let him lie down, pulled a piece of it from Xiao Guang's wet clothes, poured the remaining hot water in the incense burner, and then applied it to Xiao Guang's forehead.
The sound of wind and rain outside the house was much less. I don’t know when it was now. Yang Ning also felt a little tired. He was about to lie down by the fire and rest for a while, suddenly, he felt a tingling pain in his heart. Then his heart jumped up quickly, and the meridians in his chest seemed to be trembling and twitching.
Yang Ning covered his chest, and the tingling pain became stronger and weaker as the meridians twitched. Yang Ning quickly sweated coldly on his forehead, but he was shocked: "Can it be that injury attack?"
The Lord of Wood injured Yang Ning's meridians with a dead wood hand, and it also had an attack once, but Yang Ning did not feel discomfort since then.
After the Mu God Lord was sucked dry and died of internal strength, Yang Ning once worried that no one could solve his injuries. However, in the past two days, there was no change in the meridians in his body. Yang Ning almost forgot that he was injured.
At this moment, the heart and mouth meridians hurt again, and Yang Ning immediately thought of the Mu Shen Lord.
The pain this time was obviously much stronger than the first time. Yang Ning was so painful that he was dizzy and dizzy, sore and weak all over his body. He rolled on the ground, hoping to reduce the pain.
With difficulty breathing, Yang Ning's eyes gradually became blurred and his mind was blank.
When I woke up again, I found myself lying on the ground, quiet around me. When I sat up, I found that the bonfire around me was much dim. Only then did I realize that I was fainting from the pain and the wood in the fire was almost burned away.
Yang Ning raised his hand and touched his chest, and the tingling pain disappeared.
He took a few pieces of dead wood and threw it on the fire. At this time, he also found that his clothes that were originally wet on the fire were baked by the fire for a long time, but they had already dried up a lot.
Suddenly, I heard a murmur coming from Xiao Guang: "Sir, go quickly... go quickly...!"
Yang Ning looked over and saw Xiao Guang curled up in the hay, but his face seemed to be much rosy than before. He moved over and took away the cloth scarf on his forehead and looked into the body temperature. It dropped a lot compared to before, but it was still a bit hot.
"Sir, don't... don't worry about me..." Xiao Guang's body shook slightly, and he said intermittently: "You...you go first..."
Yang Ning thought to himself that you are really loyal and still care about others in your sleep.
He felt that the "sir" in Xiao Guang's mouth was probably the elder in brown robe. Xiao Guang called him a gentleman, which made Yang Ning even more strange. He couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two was.
Hearing a sudden scream of "Ah", Xiao Guang sat up suddenly. Under the fire, he saw Xiao Guang's face turned pale, sweating, and his eyes were full of horror.
Yang Ning knew that he was awakened by a nightmare, and sat by the fire staring at Xiao Guang without saying a word.
Xiao Guang woke up in shock. He first saw the fire in front of him. He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his face. His eyelids drooped, looking confused and said vaguely: "This...where is this?" As soon as he finished speaking, his body fell down again. Before Yang Ning could speak, the boy's eyes were closed.
Although the wind and rain outside were a little less, it was still drizzling.
Yang Ning leaned on the stone platform behind him, reached out to his arms and touched it, took out the Liuhe Divine Art Scroll. After tossing for a long time, the scroll was actually damaged several parts, but this was already very rare.
After all, I fell into the pool again, struggled in the wind and rain, and even fought with Xiao Guang in the mud. Most of the scrolls were intact, and the material of the scrolls was indeed not bad.
He scanned it from beginning to end, and he had already kept the eleven red meridians in mind.
The death of the Mu God Lord was inexplicably strange that day, and Yang Ning didn't think much about it, but now after thinking about it carefully, he vaguely knew in his heart that the death of the Mu God Lord should be closely related to the Liuhe Divine Art.
The Wood God Lord has extremely high martial arts skills. Compared with him, he is like a sheep and a tiger. In the end, the tiger died at the hands of the sheep. It seems incredible, but there must be a reason for this, and the only possibility is the Liuhe Divine Art.
He also remembered in his heart that when the Mu God King invaded his body with his internal force, he had no choice but to follow the red line on his shoulder to introduce the internal force into the Dantian Danzhong point. This is very likely to be the source of the death of the Mu God King. In other words, he had already used the Liuhe Divine Art at that time.
He still remembers that when Mu Shenjun was in a mad day, he suspected that the Liuhe magic skill was fake, and later claimed that it took him two years to get the picture.
From the clues that later, this scroll is likely to be from the Five Poison Palace. The Wood God King obtained the Liuhe Divine Power from the Five Poison Palace for some unknown means, but was followed and killed by the people from the Five Poison Palace.
However, after the Mu Shenjun practiced the Liuhe Divine Art, his body seemed to have changed.
What Yang Ning was confused about was that since the Lord Mu had practiced the Liuhe Divine Art, did he not know the mystery of the Liuhe Divine Art, how could he easily die under the Liuhe Divine Art?
I just remembered the flow of the red line meridians on the scroll, but in critical moments, how could I use the Liuhe magic skill so easily? Could it be that I am vaguely guiding my internal force to enter the Dantian Danzhong point along the meridians, which is the method of Liuhe magic skill?
He had many questions in his heart, but it was difficult to solve for a moment, but he knew that the Liuhe magical painting in his hand might be a disaster.
The name of the Five Poison Palace is not a good bird. Since they can chase the Mu Shenjun at all costs and find the Liuhe magical power, they will not give up easily. This scroll is inevitable that they will not be seen by others. Anyway, they have already remembered the flow of meridians in it, and there is no need to keep it in their hands to cause trouble.
He raised his hand and was about to throw the scroll into the fire, but he thought that the Lord Mu would take back the scroll from his hands at all costs. Logically speaking, the Lord Mu must have known the direction of the meridians on the scroll, but he still had to take back the scroll. Is it because there is something else in this scroll?
Yang Ning couldn't help but check it carefully and repeatedly several times, but he really couldn't see anything strange. He also thought that because of his practice, Mu Shenjun was so obsessed with the fire, he had to find a way to rescue him from the scroll. He had not practiced this Liuhe Divine Art, so he naturally wouldn't be obsessed with the fire.
Instead, this picture is left behind. It would be great if you see something and practice it, like the Lord of the Wood.
Since it is the source of disaster, it will be better sooner or better, and eliminate it in its infancy.
He was a free and easy person, threw the scroll in his hand into the fire, and soon the entire scroll turned into ashes in the flames.
When the scroll was burned, Yang Ning felt a sense of relief all over his body. He thought that only the Lord Mu knew that the scroll was in his hands, but the only person in charge was dead now. In addition, the scroll was burned and there was no such thing in his hands. There would be no one in the world who knew that he had contact with the Liuhe Divine Art.
He closed his eyes against the stone platform and slept in a daze for a while. When he opened his eyes again, he found that it had already started to light and looked at Xiao Guang. The boy's face turned a lot rosy, and he looked very stable.
Yang Ning got up, reached the door, stretched his waist, and not far away was the green bamboo forest. The wind and rain had stopped. A layer of mist floated above the bamboo forest after the rain, like a misty fairyland. It was really beautiful. The bamboo fragrance that came with the wind mixed with the smell of the soil after the rain, but it also made people feel at ease.
Yang Ning was in a good mood. Then he thought that the horse was lost and could only walk towards the capital. He was a little depressed. When he returned to the ancestral hall, the fire had already been extinguished. Yang Ning squatted beside Xiao Guang. Seeing that he was still closing his eyes, he whispered: "I can only help you here, which is a perfect end. I have other things to do. I can't stay here and delay it. No matter what, I have to rely on you next, just hope you can turn the danger into safety." He sighed and said to himself: "I originally wanted to ask this kid for some reward, but it seems that it won't work."
He stood up and was about to leave, but Xiao Guang's weak voice sounded: "Where are you going?" Xiao Guang had already woken up.
Yang Ning was stunned, looked down at him, and immediately smiled, "You guy is awake? I still think you can't survive again."
"If I die, wouldn't you be in vain?" Xiao Guang was weak and had already opened his eyes slightly, "You saved me?"
"Nonsense." Yang Ning rolled his eyes, "I said Xiao Guang, you must thank me well. If it weren't for me, you would definitely die. This way, for the sake of everyone's familiarity, you can just give a few hundred taels of silver. If there is no cash silver, you can use any jewelry to compensate. Isn't that all you have to say? You wouldn't tell me that you have nothing on you, right? If that's true, we don't even have friends."
