Chapter 47 Too weak water
"Slow down!" The master suddenly reached out and scolded, and then said, "This is the entrance to the cemetery, in case an accident happens at any time, you can dodge it first!"
I immediately pulled Bu Yique to the side. The master paused, raised the money sword in his left hand and slapped it across his body, while his right hand flipped his hand and slapped the edge of the stone pond.
“Rumbling ~~~”
The friction between the huge rocks kept coming, and the stone pond in front of me was moving little by little, as if it was not too heavy, otherwise it would not have been pushed away by the master. Just at this moment, I was shocked and immediately shouted: "Master, be careful!"
"laugh!"
A rich gray aura burst out from the cracks that gradually appeared under the stone pond. Although I shouted in time as a reminder, the master was still rushed to the gray aura. Unexpectedly, the master's preparations were temporarily put in handy. The money sword suddenly emitted a brilliant golden light that was completely opposite to it when it encountered the gray aura. The master instantly pressed the money sword down. The power of the golden light was like a natural barrier, shaking the gray aura that was gushing away. Some of the auras that had not yet touched the money sword, scattered strangely, as if they were accompanied by the spiritual energy of living beings. In short, the money sword swept away all the gray aura in a flash.
The master's face darkened, and the tip of the Jinqian Sword turned downwards. A golden light easily broke through layers of gray gas and penetrated into the cracks!
Only then did I realize that the gray gas was actually extremely dense and cold corpse gas. Fortunately, my master suppressed the corpse gas that was gushing out, and the corpse gas that scattered and fled disappeared without a trace. Bu Yique and I looked at each other and immediately took out the peach wood sword and wore it.
The master turned his head and looked at me with a serious expression: "If you go down here, it is where Zhuang Guojiu’s cemetery is. You all need to be careful!"
I didn't say anything, and focused on the key points. How could we practitioners abandon the Tao and seek peace for personal life and death? In this way, I looked at Bu Yique and said, "Yique, you have not met with Taoist Master Li Zhengfu yet. Why don't you stay outside to take care of me? If you have anything, you can withdraw from here early!"
Bu Yique's eyes immediately stared at me with blood red. I felt panic and didn't know what I said wrong. I heard Bu Yique curse angrily: "Is your mother or brother? How can I say I'll just leave when I've come here? Since I, Bu Yique, recognize your brother, the seventh day of the lunar month, I don't care about living and dying together at this moment!"
The master looked back at Bu Yique in surprise, but sighed slightly and said nothing. I felt excited and punched Bu Yique's chest, pursed his lips and said, "Good brother!"
"Cough cough!" Unexpectedly, my punch almost smashed Bu Yique into an internal injury. Fortunately, this guy pretended to be young, chuckled and coughed twice, and then he focused his attention: "Good brother!"
The master raised the money sword and hit it. This was a winding underground stone staircase. It was also extremely dark when it went down. Only the withered and yellow and constantly swaying fire light came out slightly. I don’t know what the cemetery below is like, and I don’t know how dangerous it is waiting for us below. But we only have this road at the moment, this unyielding road to help the right and punish evil!
This underground passage is a circular road, like a dragon in the stone pond outside. After three or four circles, I finally saw a spacious and bright straight passage. I was a little confused when I saw this passage. Isn’t this passage exactly the same as the passage outside? But I know deeply that this passage is definitely not that one, but I just don’t know what mechanism there is here!
Sure enough, when I got closer, I realized that the decoration and furnishings here were almost exactly the same as the passage outside. The semicircular phantoms reflected in the brazier were intertwined and overlapped, naturally forming rows of slightly twisted small square grids. However, the ground here was paved with stone bricks, and there were subtle gaps between the stone bricks, which made people feel strange and surprised.
"This stone brick is very strange..." Bu Yique stretched out his foot to step on one, but as soon as he touched the stone brick, the stone brick suddenly sank inexplicably. Bu Yique's whole body's center of gravity was unstable, and he was about to lie forward. The master hurriedly reached out to pull it and threw Bu Yique behind us with force.
"Master, this... is water under this stone brick? The stone brick actually floats on the water?!" I stared at the stone brick that sunk into the water, and couldn't help but feel frightened, but a strange scene immediately happened. I saw that the stone brick that had originally sunk into the water slowly emerged again, and just like before, filled the missing gap intact.
The master said in a slight shock: "It turns out to be weak water! The so-called weak water is a feather that cannot be floated and cannot be overcome. If a person falls into it, it will be difficult to survive regardless of whether it is water or not!"
"Then..." I stared at the stone brick and asked in confusion: "Then why did this stone brick sink and float up again? Didn't it mean that the feathers didn't float?"
The master glared at me and said casually: "Whether between heaven and earth, yin and yang and five elements all things have the principle of mutual generation and restraint. This stone brick must have been carefully arranged by ancient craftsmen. Of course, the purpose of our trip is not for this, but at the end of this passage, which is where Zhuang Guojiu’s cemetery is located!"
I smacked my lips, shrugged immediately, and said, "Master, since there is weak water under the stone bricks, how should we get over it?"
The master stared at all the stone bricks in the passage in front of him, and then said in surprise: "Do you see the dragon shadows on those stone bricks? Well, according to the book, the mountains, rivers and other places in the world are the three walls and twenty-eight stars in the sky. The so-called three walls are the upper wall, the purple wall in the middle wall, and the sky city in the lower wall. It is one of the star officials who divided the star sky in ancient China. It is collectively called the three walls and twenty-eight stars in the three walls and twenty-eight stars. The so-called twenty-eight stars are the east.
The four symbols of the Fang Canglong, the northern Xuanwu, the western white tiger, and the southern Vermillion Bird, and each symbol is composed of seven constellations, so the combined are twenty-eight constellations. The dragon shadows on these stone bricks are compared with the eastern Canglong, the jiaosu, the Kangsu, the Di Sui, the Fangsu, the Xin Sui, the Wei Sui, and the Qi Sui. When we leave later, we have to walk on the dragon shadow. If we are approaching the Sumeru Galaxy, we will be doomed if we are not careful. Do you know?"
I opened my mouth slightly. The dragon shadow of the Canglong was four or five feet away from the ground here, and it was not close to the left and right. If I stepped on the dragon shadow, it would be difficult to maintain my body balance. If I accidentally fell into the weak water, the consequences would be worrying!
The master did not speak anymore, and carried the money sword in his arms and said in a deep voice: "I'll go there first, and you can follow my steps and you'll be fine. Don't step on the stone bricks without carved patterns!"
After saying that, the master jumped, and his toes were accurately located on the tail of the dragon shadow, and then his toes were raised again like a crane spreading his wings and moving forward again. I was stunned. The master did not sink into the weak water if he continued like this!
I turned around and looked at Bu Yique, nodded silently, and then I decided to walk ahead first, take a deep breath, I took a few steps back, and then ran forward suddenly... and jumped-
The moment my toes hit the dragon's tail, my heart almost pulled up at the same time, and a momentum almost brought me out of the stone brick, but fortunately, I kept steady and looked up again. My master had already walked halfway and there was no situation. I lifted my breath and jumped on tiptoe toward the second stone brick...
"Drink!"
Just as I was about to stand on the third stone brick, I suddenly heard a strange sound from Bu Yique. I subconsciously turned my head to look at Bu Yique. But Bu Yique had already jumped onto the first stone brick, chuckled at me, and said, "I hope I can increase my confidence and shout it's okay?"
I rolled my eyes and said, "Stone bricks are fine, but I was shocked by your kid. Why do you jump into a stone brick and have such a weird hobby?"
"Drink!"
I was speechless for a moment. This was the sound of Bu Yique jumping onto the third stone brick...
At this moment, the master had already jumped onto the ground, but he didn't stop. As soon as he jumped onto the ground, he suddenly waved the money sword and slashed around for a while. This is...what is wrong? There is nothing around him!
I swallowed, then accelerated my pace, and took the first, second, third step, and then I felt more and more and more skilled as I walked. But Bu Yique kept rumbling "Hello!" behind me. Seeing that I was stepping on the dragon horn, and not far ahead was the ground, I secretly tried my best and jumped out toward the ground!
I just stood firm on the ground and I wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but I felt two hot and cold breaths coming from left and right, and I quickly approached me. When I looked around, I was really surprised. The cold and hot breath was actually two fireballs of the same size but different colors!
I vaguely understood that as soon as the master got on the ground, he was slashing with the money sword. It turned out to be...
One of the two fireballs was a green flame, which was a strange flame that I had never seen in my life, while the other fireballs were fiery red flames. When the two fireballs hit me like lightning, they suddenly changed directions from left to right, and each ran to the opposite side. At this moment, the master's voice came: "This is the Yin-Yang flame transformed by the two qi of Yin-Yang, but it is not a physical body, but just a phantom. Only the living person's body contains the Yin-Yang energy, so the special aura here will vary from person to person. The corresponding Yin-Yang flame will be created. You only need to use the peach wood sword to disperse one of the fireballs, and the other one will be extinguished in an instant."
My master's words made me slightly distracted. It was precisely because of such a short moment that the big red fireball "swish!" brushed across my cheeks. I screamed in pain and hurriedly covered my face. But at the same time, the green fireball that I didn't know where to go actually hit my butt egg hard, and a biting cry of pain came out from my mouth again. I didn't care about anything else. I waved the peach wood sword and chopped it randomly!
It happened that the green fireball came from under my crotch and I gritted my teeth and stabbed it with a sword.
"Huh~~~"
Another fire-red fireball immediately extinguished. I rolled my eyes in a frustration and almost slumped on the ground. At this time, Bu Yique once again heard a "Hello!", but then another anxious scream came "Ah~~~"
The master shook his body and jumped behind me, grabbed Bu Yique, who was about to fall into Ruoshui's body, and shouted in time: "Catch my hand!"
