In the cold wind, Fang Qiuliang stopped and looked at the old woman beside him with deep eyes.
"I told you that the child should do his cultivation step by step. You insist on telling him that sword-grinding stone to take such a big risk. The Eighteen Mountains at the foot of Qingping Mountain are now able to
Have you stepped onto the ground?"
The old woman didn't speak, but threw the lantern to Fang Qiuliang. She took out a puppet, and a light of inspiration penetrated into the puppet in her hunched body.
Under the light shadow, the old woman's body collapsed little by little, turning into a strange human skin. The human skin flew into the depths of the forest, turning into strange black crows, disappearing in the fog
There is no trace of shadow.
The puppet wrapped in the clothes turned into Sun Xipo again. In the darkness, her breath seemed to become extremely weak.
Fang Qiuliang frowned and said with his hands behind his back: "Have you really gone to Jingting Mountain? You should understand that if we leave this town, our abilities will be infinitely limited. Will the scholars in Jingting Mountain let you go?
”
"What else? If you guard the Dao Temple like you, you think you will wait for everything?" The old woman raised her head and stared at the fog that receded in the night, "It's just a change of human skin. I saw the girl the child likes.
, good character, but it still needs to grow for a few years, that's good."
Fang Qiuliang sighed and walked towards the Taoist temple step by step, "But that child, we are guarding against it."
"It's hard for anyone to believe in someone else when they encounter such a strange thing."
The old woman shook her head and walked towards Qingyun Town step by step. She did not enter the Taoist temple.
Fang Qiuliang's voice came into the old woman's mind: "The old stonemason left, throwing away the guy he had practiced for most of his life, untied the shackles imprisoned in his heart, and once a Buddha's name or a demon, when he appears again,
I know what kind of face it will be, and this town will have to be guarded by you in the future."
"What about you?"
"Me?" Fang Qiuliang walked into the Taoist temple and "Go to Xianhuzhou to check some things."
Fang Qiuliang walked into the Taoist temple.
He looked at the boy leaning against the wall and advised, "Don't go into the mountains after night."
Gu Yusheng stared at Fang Qiuliang carefully for a while, and after confirming that there was no problem with his breath, he asked: "Senior, what is that fog? Why have I never heard of it and never seen it before
?”
"All the people I have seen are dead."
Fang Qiuliang took a few candles in front of the stone statue of the Taoist temple to make the Taoist temple brighter.
The charcoal in the brazier was rippling.
The fire was illuminated in Gu Yusheng's eyes.
Fang Qiuliang, who was originally going to ask something, seemed to have an answer in his mind.
"Go back soon."
Fang Qiuliang handed the lantern to Gu Yusheng.
Gu Yusheng was carrying a lantern.
In the darkness, walk towards Qingyun Town.
Fang Qiuliang looked at Gu Yusheng's departure back. Under the night, in his vicissitudes of eyes, a golden lotus phantom enveloped the boy.
And the boy seemed to have no idea about all this.
Fang Qiuliang shook his sleeves and murmured to himself: "The old bald donkey actually takes the lead, it's really easy to plot."
...
The next morning.
The scorching sun in the east rises, and the late spring cold ends with a spring breeze.
The peach blossoms are still blooming, and the grass is lush.
Gu Yusheng stood in the yard, holding the wooden sword in his hand, and had been standing for a long time.
He raised the wooden sword in his hand little by little, and approached the bridge of his nose.
Qingpingshan was blocked by the wooden sword in his hand, as if he had been split in half.
But when Gu Yusheng looked at the Eighteen Mountains at the foot of Qingping Mountain, his brows frowned again.
The doubts in his heart.
No answer was obtained.
Just like why there are Sun Xipo, an old stonemason and an old scholar in the town, they are full of unsolved mysteries.
The only thing Gu Yusheng is convinced is that after one night, he became stronger.
The twelve meridians and hidden acupoints that open in the body are completely connected to the Dantian.
After tempering the entire body, the bones have already been fixed, but the mysterious dragon appeared in the divine sea last night and was cut off by him with a sword.
I just checked myself and found that my bones were restored to their original appearance.
But Gu Yusheng felt that his power had increased several times overnight.
In the bone calcination realm, calcination bones are light, and ultimately match the soul, so they can fly in the air.
But now, Gu Yusheng feels as heavy as a mountain.
This feeling of heaviness was like the Buddha statue he carried yesterday.
When Gu Yusheng's mind has the idea of controlling the air, this heaviness will disappear and will not affect the speed at all. In a trance, he could even sense that his body seemed to be covered by a special light, but he carefully investigated it.
At that time, there is no light.
The abnormality Gu Yusheng noticed was not just that his body became stronger.
And in his sea of divine flowers, the lotus, three petals are gold and twelve petals are green, and they rotate drippingly in the natal bottle.
As long as Gu Yusheng's thoughts move, the lotus will turn into a sword energy that he can control.
What made Gu Yusheng feel the most incredible was the wooden sword in his hand!
This wooden sword that had accompanied him for many years had a penetrating dragon pattern in the sword bead. The dragon pattern along both sides of the wooden sword and the sword edge to the sword edge, and the sword blade, a dragon scale pattern appeared.
.
The sword Gu Yusheng was holding was like a dragon sucking and spitting out the sword.
Although it is still a wooden sword, it has a strange blade and becomes extremely sharp.
When the light fell on the wooden sword in Gu Yusheng's hand, it seemed like a drop of dragon blood was floating at the edge of the sword.
See from a distance.
It is like a carefully carved dragon sword.
But from Gu Yusheng's perspective, it was like he used a wooden sword to penetrate the dragon's body, making the dragon surrender to the wooden sword itself.
“It should have a name.”
Gu Yusheng said to himself.
Just then, a breeze blew.
The wooden sword made a clear sound of dragon roar.
"Slay the Dragon."
Gu Yusheng's wrist moved, and the wooden sword roared and returned to the sheath, and he took it into the spirit gourd to nourish it.
Gu Yusheng looked at the eighteen mountains in the west. The white mist and clouds rose in the early morning. Only the tops of the eighteen mountains were seen, like sharp swords facing the sky.
The curiosity in Gu Yusheng's heart was once again aroused.
Take advantage of the morning sun.
He entered the mountain again!
Not long after a while.
Gu Yusheng came to the place he walked yesterday.
Birds singing in empty mountains.
The sun shines through the deep forest, and the mottled light and shadows sway among the dead leaves.
There are squirrels jumping around on the tree, and birds fly around in the sky.
All the scenes look normal.
It seemed as if everything that happened last night was just a nightmare.
Only the Buddha statues standing on both sides of the road disappeared strangely.
Gu Yusheng stood at the position of the last stone statue that dissipated last night and carefully investigated for a while.
He found no clues, nor did he sensed any danger.
He took a deep breath.
Continue to walk towards the depths of the Eighteen Mountains.
The thousand-year-old trees and vines have completely hidden the road.
Gu Yusheng, who had been walking for half an hour, couldn't help but stop.
In front of him was a towering tree. The branches of the giant tree were hung with long-dead cloth and ropes. The cloths had faded and the red ropes became fragile.
It seems to be a wishing tree.
It was just because there was no road, no one from Qingyun Town came to pray.
Gu Yusheng's eyes moved down little by little, and there was a stone statue covered with moss in the middle of the huge tree pole.
When Gu Yusheng's eyes fell on the stone statue, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
Because that stone statue was not a Buddha statue carved by an old stonemason, but a god in the mouth of the village people.
Before, Gu Yusheng didn't think there was any difference between this stone statue and a Buddha statue.
But since he walked into the mountain with a Buddha statue, he experienced some things last night. When Gu Yusheng looked at the statue of the Divine Stone again, deep in his brain, he seemed to see a sleeping golem, as if he would open his eyes and wake up at any time.
Even though it is broad daylight.
Gu Yusheng felt a little chill on his back.
He instinctively wanted to retreat.
But in his brain, the back of the sword appeared inexplicably.
And looked back at him, his eyes as clear as before!
The corners of Gu Yusheng's mouth rose slightly.
He understood.
It turns out that there was a desolation in his heart!
Why fear the stone statue in front of you!
Zheng!
His mind moved.
The sword flew out of the pot.
"cut!"
The sword energy was like a lotus, and it fell on the ancient statue of the divine stone.
Boom!
There was a loud bang.
The stone statue that stood for thousands of years turned into a pile of gravel, and dust and smoke rose everywhere.
Gu Yusheng looked alert, holding a sword in his right hand and pinching gestures in his left hand.
He is waiting for unknown danger to appear.
However.
After the wind blows away the dust, there are only wasteland stones scattered all over the ground.
A false alarm.
Gu Yusheng even walked over, picked up a wasteland stone, crushed it in the palm of his hand, and the gravel was scattered all over the ground.
Destroyed that statue of God's Death.
Gu Yusheng continued to move forward.
Along the way, he met an old stonemason's statue of a Buddha that had once been on the side of the road.
In front of some Buddha statues, there are embers burning incense and burning paper, and there are also cloth tethers to pray for blessings.
perhaps.
This is exactly the result that the old stonemason wants.
He only wants the mortals in Qingyun Town to worship the gods in his heart.
Instead of the stone statues that have stood for many years.
What made Gu Yusheng feel regretful was that when he faced these Buddha statues, he did not have the same adventure as last night.
Gu Yusheng guessed that it might be because of the daytime.
But he didn't want to come to Shibashan again in the dark.
In his heart, he just wanted to find the sword-grinding stone as soon as possible.
He climbed over mountains and destroyed many ancient stone statues along the way.
When he walked to the last mountain of the Eighteen Mountains.
The light that was sprinkled from the sky was blocked by Qingping Mountain.
The light and shadows shining in the mountains pass through the deep forest, and the deep forest is colorful, which is a landscape that Gu Yu has never seen before.
He has found hundreds of stone statues.
But the sword-grinding stone was still not found.
Gu Yusheng's heart was slightly anxious.
In front is a waterfall hanging down from Qingping Mountain.
The wind blew, and the rain fell from the sky fell on Gu Yusheng's face.
Gu Yusheng gently wiped his face with his hands.
Through the fingers.
He saw a stone statue!
A stone statue that was poured down by a waterfall.
The face of the stone statue.
Some look familiar.
Gu Yusheng thought about it carefully and looked suddenly. Wasn't this the one he saw in the morning when he first returned?
Gu Yusheng still remembers the feeling of being targeted by something when he faced the stone statue.
Gu Yusheng came to the waterfall step by step.
He stared at the stone statue in front of him again.
Even without blinking.
After dozens of breaths.
Gu Yusheng suddenly drew his sword.
A sword slashed on the head of the stone statue.
Thrown your head.
The clear waterfall dyed a wisp of red in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, a cold and cold voice was screaming, and the head was flowing along the waterfall.
Gu Yusheng narrowed his eyes, a coldness appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, "Come out, Eunuch Yang, Qingyun Sect has been three years, I haven't forgotten your existence."
