The torch light gradually became stronger, illuminating the surrounding area a lot brighter. Xuezi fell down from the vine with nimble skills. Jiuling hurriedly swam over with the monster. When the two beasts reached the shore and the stone monument, Chen Guan
Look clearly at this monster. The monster is narrow and long, nearly two meters long. It has scales all over its body, forming a rhombus or shield shape. Its limbs are thick and short, its tail is flat and long, and its back is slightly raised. Now it is only following Jiuling. It seems that
Jiuling is like its boss.
"It's not a crocodile or a lizard! Jiuling, is this your friend?" Xuezi asked with a smile.
Jiuling seemed to be nodding towards the monster behind him, and the monster behind him stepped forward and sniffed at Chen Guan and Xuezi carefully. Only then did they see that this monster had no eyeballs in its eyes, only the whites of its eyes.
"Hey, after being alone in the cave for two thousand years, my eyesight has long since deteriorated, and I only have the sense of smell!" Chen Guan gently touched the monster's head: "It looks just like the wild pangolin in the mountains outside! It's just longer than the longest pangolin outside.
It has more than doubled in size and can swim through rivers and seas, something that the pangolins out there cannot do!"
Xuezi nodded, having already discovered that this monster did not have much spiritual energy. It could be seen that there were other reasons for its longevity.
"It also has words on it!" Chen Guan suddenly saw a few words carved on the tail of this monster. He quickly took a closer look and saw that it was the four words "Cuan Shanshui Jia". He couldn't help but laugh: "These four words are related to the founding sect."
The fonts in front of the immortalized statue of Grandpa Grandmaster are the same. It seems that Grandpa Grandmaster used the spiritual energy on his sword to carve it! This name is so vivid!"
Xuezi was also happy to touch the head of the armor: "It can pass through mountains and water. It's not easy for the little guy. He has to stay underground in the cave for so long!"
Jiuling and the pangolin are more affectionate. Chen Guan and Xuezi speculated that the pangolin might be a cross between a pangolin and a certain aquatic beast. Although it is a genus of scale armor, it also has some connections with Jiuling.
.
"Let's go, take us to pay homage to our ancestors and find the Secret Art to Escape Heaven!" Chen Guan said softly.
Jiuling was jumping around on all fours in front, and the pangolin was also very fast. It was running behind with four paws and wagging its tail to keep up. Within ten minutes, they came to the stone statue cave of the twelve holy spirits in Zhenguo again.
After passing through the group of stone statues, we came to the place where Tianji Yuke previously sat. It was now empty.
Chen Guan and Xuezi once again knelt down and kowtowed in front of Tianji Yuke's original seat: "Future generations of disciples pay homage to the founder of the sect, Grandpa!"
The pangolin screamed "quacking" next to it, feeling very depressed. It surrounded the gloomy wood where Tianji Yuke had been sitting, as if complaining to the Nine Spirits.
Chen Guan and Xuezi stood up and couldn't help but smile and said: "Perhaps Chuanshanshui Jia used to take Tai Sui from the Yin Chen Wood. No wonder he can live forever but doesn't have much spiritual energy! Now Tai Sui has been taken away by people from Xuanmen, and even the Yin Chen Mu
It’s all taken away and it’s angry!”
However, Jiuling now also ran to the original position of the gloomy wood, grabbed it hard with his giant claws, and swept away the dust on the ground to reveal a blue stone surface, which was exactly the same as the surrounding stones.
"What is Jiuling going to do?" Xuezi was puzzled.
She and Chen Guan hurriedly approached, and Jiuling patted the head of the armor with its claws. The armor suddenly ran towards the soul spring lake outside again.
"The landscape armor ran away, what did it want to do?" Chen Guan touched the mane on Jiuling's neck and asked gently.
Jiuling wagged his tail happily, but could not say anything. The two of them were busy and could only stand and wait. At this time, they saw the bluestone under the gloomy wood shaking slightly.
"There is a mechanism under the bluestone!" Xuezi said softly.
Chen Guan suddenly realized: "Yes, this is a mechanism jointly set up in the water and the cave! The pangolin may have got in from the water of Hunquan Lake outside, and now it is under the stone, using its head to open this mechanism! We couldn't detect it that day
Its aura, it turned out that he was hiding in a water cave to hide his aura!"
Sure enough, now the underground bluestone was pushed up with a "pop" sound, and it was three inches higher than the surrounding area. It was a blue jade box, about seventeen or eight inches long and nine inches wide. It turned out that the top of the stone was the jade box.
The upper shell.
Under the jade box, a pointed head clad in landscape armor and white eyes are revealed, which is very funny!
However, the hole in this mechanism is very small, and the body of the armored man cannot get up. It can only go back with its head, and then go back the same way, and come up from the soul spring lake outside!
Jiuling's right paw pushed the jade box towards Chen Guan's feet, raised his head and looked at Chen Guan with both eyes, as if giving it to Chen Guan. Chen Guan already understood that the divine secret was contained in it!
Xuezi sighed at the side: "What a clever treasure-hiding scheme! The ancestor first used bamboo slips to confuse everyone. Needless to say, the bamboo slips must not be the real Taoist secrets! After making people feel heartbroken, the ancestor gave Tai Sui to comfort people! The gloomy wood
As long as all Xuanmen masters know it, the masters will naturally take away the Yinchen Wood, so that they have a feeling in their hearts that they have earned it! They will no longer think about the original location of the Yinchen Wood and there are other treasures! Only by guessing people's hearts can they ensure the true Taoism.
Leave the secret behind!"
"Yes, after Master Shouyue and the others obtained the Yinchen Wood, they searched the outside of the cave carefully, but they never came to carefully examine the stone under the Yinchen Wood!" Chen Guan picked up the jade box and saw only the jade box.
There are three hidden mechanisms below and two round twists. I can't help but say: "Even if you see the cyan color on the top of this jade box, you can't find the secret like us! You see, these three mechanisms can only be pushed up after being released from below.
Only the Panshanshui Armor can complete such an unlocking mechanism. The Panshanshui Armor must have seen that we have the Jie Jiao practice method and are accompanied by nine spirits, so it regards us as a trusted person. Grandpa Grandpa’s thoughts are truly a ghost.
Unpredictable!”
The top of the jade box was only slightly clasped, but Chen Guan flipped it over slightly and opened the lid.
They only took a glance and knew that what was hidden inside was indeed the ultimate copy of the Secret Art of Escape from Heaven, and it was the real copy, because the Art of Escape from Heaven's Secret was kept on a piece of cowhide with a very familiar color and style!
This piece of cowhide was stacked in a jade box. Chen Guan gently opened it. The four sides of the cowhide were regular. Both the color and texture were the same type of cowhide as the one that recorded the Biyou Benlei Jue. It might even have been cut from the same cow.
Come down!
"This cowhide is half smaller than the previous one! The horizontal width is only one meter, and the height is no more than a foot! It can be seen that the quality of the Tao Jue is definitely not judged by the length of the words!" Xuezi laughed.
"Yes, that's right!" Chen Guan was very excited: "The paper on the cowhide is also written in dark red small seal script! Both the cowhide and the script were handed down from the Qin Dynasty, and the cinnabar was preserved in a jade box.
good!"
There are very few words written on the cowhide, and there is no meridian diagram at all. There are sixteen large characters on the far right:
"To escape the secrets of heaven, the best of the nine techniques.
Yuanyang spiritual energy is the most domineering!"
Chen Guan looked at these sixteen words and his hands trembled with excitement. Of course he knew the meaning of "domineering".
At that time, Shang Yang of the Pre-Qin Dynasty lobbied Duke Xiao of Qin and provided three ways to unify the six kingdoms of the Central Plains, namely the imperial way, the kingly way and the hegemonic way. The imperial way refers to Huang Lao's learning of governing quietly and inaction; the kingly way is to rule the world with benevolence and love; and the hegemonic way
It is "iron and blood" first, and the extreme is achieved with force and power!
"Okay, domineering, domineering, it is indeed the method of interception and education!" Chen Guan smiled and said: "God does not blink, so many grievances and injustices have caused me to encounter! What kind of imperial and kingly way do I want to go?
Cultivation? What I want is dominance!"
The entire residents of Lingshou Town were executed, and he was injured repeatedly in the past few years. The Japanese army, Koka ninjas, and practitioners repeatedly slandered him and severely wounded him. When he talked about the sadness, he could only gently hold Yukiko's hand.
Xuezi is always by your side!
Xuezi was also happy for Chen Guan from the bottom of her heart: "Brother, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's go back up first!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a scream came from hundreds of meters away, "Quack..."
"It's the sound of the Mountain and Water Armor!" Chen Guan woke up and hurriedly folded the Secret Art of Escape and put it in the jade box. He saw that Jiuling had already rushed out of the cave. When he was about to follow up, he saw Xuezi running.
Biyou Ben Lei Jue ran forward and hugged Jiuling: "If the person coming is a master of surviving thunder tribulations, we can't beat him. Calm down, calm down!"
Jiu Ling was trembling all over. The Mountain Water Armor was his good friend from two thousand years ago, the strange beast next to Tianji Yuke. They had not seen each other for two thousand years. He never expected that they would only meet once, less than an hour later, and now
The life of the pangolin is in danger! How much the pangolin cares about it, but it knows that Xuezi is right, so it is hugged by Xuezi, and the two of them quietly walk out.
"It's two hundred meters away!" Chen Guan and Xuezi used the Heaven and Earth Exploration Technique, and they both sensed that the incoming person was two hundred meters away.
When they saw that the Xuanwu statue was the largest among the twelve holy spirits in the town, they hurriedly hid behind the Xuanwu statue! This was the only place in the cave where they could hide!
After a burst of footsteps came from the corner outside, a human voice came: "Master, what was that monster you killed just now?"
A sharp voice said with a sinister smile: "Although I don't know my teacher, the appearance of the monster looks like a giant pangolin! It may have lived for a long, long time. Huh, sure enough, there are secrets in this cave! How dare this boy Chen Guan
You deceived all of us! This brat will die a good death!"
Chen Guan and Xuezi were extremely surprised, because they recognized the Taoist priest's voice, and it was none other than Master Shou Que of the Longmen Sect.
Master Shou Que came over with two disciples. One was Taoist priest Huodong who had had several conflicts with Chen Guan, and the other was his own great disciple Taoist Huo Jing. The thing Taoist Huo Jing was holding now was indeed a pierced landscape armor.
The corpse, the pangolin's neck was almost cut off, the head was half hanging, and fresh blood was dripping continuously, it was too horrible to look at.
"Ah..." Chen Guan and Xuezi almost screamed. Jiu Ling became even more uneasy and wanted to rush out!
"Uncle Master is still awesome!" the voice of Taoist priest Huodong sounded: "We just arrived at the cliff of the passage and saw rattan. Uncle Master said there might be something going on inside, so we should calm down and hide on the rattan above the water while holding our breath.
Without falling into the water, sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, we found this strange thing surfaced and actually wanted to attack us. Isn’t it looking for death?”
