Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Empty House
After the Qi was infused, the fragments of the Earth Book lit up with a turbid light, which flowed like water, igniting one spell after another.
Xu Qian'an and Luo Yuheng jumped onto the stone plate in tacit understanding. The next moment, the turbid light expanded silently, swallowed the two of them, and took them away into the stone chamber.
Once again in a purely lightless environment, Xu Qian'an's whole body was quietly tense, as if facing a great enemy, and he couldn't help but think of the last time he "died" silently.
He remembered the terrifying, overwhelming pressure.
At this time, he felt his arm being hit lightly by the whisk, and Luo Yuheng's voice sounded in his ears: "Follow me!"
The whisk hit him again, as if to signal him to follow.
It was too dark, and I couldn't see clearly at all. If I reached out and groped forward, could I touch my aunt's buttocks? I would be killed on the spot... He thought as he walked slowly. The corridor was silent and long. After walking for a quarter of an hour, Xu Qi'an's heart tightened, ready to face the terrifying breathing sound and the heavy pressure like Mount Tai.
However, there was nothing in front of him, and it was calm.
Hmm?
He remained calm and continued to walk with Luo Yuheng. After a few minutes, a faint but pure golden light appeared in front of him.
I "died" here last time, Xu Qi'an muttered in his heart and stopped where he was..
I believe that with Luo Yuheng's means and cultivation, he doesn't need to remind him in vain. If there is any danger, my aunt can handle it completely.
Besides, this is just a clone of my aunt...... Hey, if her clone can't handle it, then my real body is not a pill? Thinking about it, Xu Qi'an was stunned.
When he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw a golden light blooming from Luo Yuheng's body, bright but not dazzling, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
The aunt turned her head, her exquisite and beautiful facial features were like a golden statue, and she said lightly: "There is nothing unusual here, only one monk."
Nothing unusual?! Xu Qi'an was stunned again.
Where is the terrifying pressure, where is the terrible breathing sound?
With doubts, he and Luo Yuheng approached the golden light that exuded the breath of Buddhism.
As they got closer, they saw a spacious secret room in front of them. In the center of the secret room was a stone bed and a bronze alchemy furnace. On the side of the stone bed was a fault abyss.
On the stone bed, a burly and tall monk was sitting cross-legged? A golden fist-sized bead was suspended above his head.
He closed his eyes and had no signs of life.
Master Hengyuan......Xu Qi'an felt a sharp pain in his heart, producing a tearing pain.
In an instant, all kinds of scenes from Hengyuan's past emerged in his mind, including his embarrassment when he asked for money, and his seriousness when he took care of the widows and orphans in Yangshengtang...
Luo Yuheng stared at the fist-sized bead for a moment and said, "Sarira, the fruit position of the second-grade Arhat."
After a pause, he looked at Xu Qi'an, "He just pretended to be dead."
Just pretended to be dead...Xu Qi'an's endless sadness suddenly stopped, and he let out a sigh of relief, and asked:
"Sarira is the fruit position of Arhat, but Hengyuan can't be a second-grade master."
Unless Hengyuan is a hidden second-grade boss of Buddhism, but this is obviously impossible.
Luo Yuheng pondered:
"Five hundred years ago, Buddhism flourished in the Central Plains. I think it was left by the eminent monks of that period. As for why he has the relic? Either he is the reincarnation of an arhat, or he got the relic by chance."
Xu Qian'an frowned: "I heard that arhats are immortal."
After saying that, he secretly complained that the practice system of Buddhism is much more stable than your Taoism. The three sects of your Taoism are completely crooked.
Luo Yuheng glanced at him and said lightly:
"In the Zen master system of Buddhism, the fourth-grade ascetic monk is the foundation. The ascetic monk must make a great wish. The greater the wish, the higher the fruit position.
"Depending on the different fruit positions, there is a distinction between arhats and bodhisattvas. Once the fruit position is condensed, it cannot be changed. In other words, arhats will always be arhats and will never become first-grade bodhisattvas.
"So, there is a method of reincarnation and recultivation. If an arhat wants to achieve the first level, he must reincarnate and recultivate, giving up everything in this life. For every reincarnation of an arhat, the Buddhist sect will do its best to find him, and then implant his relics from his previous life into his body to protect him.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Five hundred years ago, Confucianism promoted the extermination of Buddhism and forced Buddhism to retreat to the Western Regions. This relic is likely to have been left behind at that time. Therefore, this monk may have obtained the relic by chance, and he is not necessarily the reincarnation of an arhat."
This is Hengyuan's secret, and this is why Taoist Jinlian gave him the fragment of the Earth Book... Whether Hengyuan is the reincarnation of an arhat or got the relic by chance, his future achievements will definitely not be low... The relic is spiritual, and it protected Master Hengyuan and saved him from danger? Xu Qian'an suddenly realized.
At the same time, he thought of the Arhat Du'e who called him a Buddhist child.
Did Du'e suspect that he was the reincarnation of a certain arhat?
While his thoughts were flying, Luo Yuheng stretched out her finger and gently tapped on the
relic.
She used the Taoist secret method of awakening the primordial spirit, which was not
offensive.
The relic gently rippled with a soft halo.
A few seconds later, Xu Qian'an heard the dead heart in Hengyuan's chest beat again and began to supply blood. After more than ten seconds, the monk's eyelids trembled and opened.
"Mr. Xu? State Master? "
After looking around blankly, Hengyuan saw Xu Qiyan and Luo Yuheng, who was emitting bright golden light.
"Master, you are so lucky!" Xu Qiyan laughed.
Just when Hengyuan was about to speak, he was startled, giving people the feeling of a cat Taoist priest with its fur standing up. He suddenly looked towards the direction of the bronze alchemy furnace, but there was no one there.
The erected "cat hair" slowly converged, and Hengyuan exhaled lightly, with a lot of relief between his eyebrows.
Hengyuan's reaction made Xu Qiyan a little horrified. He took a moment to choose his words and simply told how he found the secret passage and how he asked for help from the national
teacher.
Then he asked: "What did you encounter here?"
Until this moment, after listening to Xu Qiyan's description and verifying the details, Hengyuan believed that the two people in front of him were real.
Immediately swallowed the relic back, put his hands together, and said: "When I was taken
away by the Huai Wang's spies that day, they sent me here through the teleportation array of Pingyuan Bo's Mansion. Here, here......"
Speaking of this, he showed an extremely horrified expression: "There lives an evil creature
here."
Evil creature?!
Xu Qian'an's face changed slightly, his back muscles twisted, and his hair stood up.
"He wanted to eat me, but because of the relic, he failed. But the relic can't do anything to him, and even, sooner or later, he will refine it. In order to fight him, I fell into a dead silence and used all my strength to activate the relic. "Hengyuan looked bitter and resentful.
"What does he look like?" Xu Qian'an asked hurriedly.
"He gave me the feeling that he was very similar to the demon of the Earth Sect, his eyes were full of malice, as if one look at him would make you fall with him. Cruelty, greed, lust...all kinds of evil thoughts breed. This is also the reason why I chose to enter the "Nirvana" state. If not, I can't maintain my nature in the confrontation with him. "Hengyuan said with lingering fear.
It was indeed another clone of the head of the Earth Sect! Xu Qian'an subconsciously looked at
Luo Yuheng, and seeing that she was also looking at him, both of them showed a look of
realization.
"What about him?"
Xu Qian'an looked around the stone chamber and found an unusual place. The secret room
was closed and there was no passage to the ground.
He immediately looked at the abyss on the right side of the stone bed, suspecting that the guy
was under the abyss.
Hengyuan frowned: "Not long ago, I felt that the pressure outside suddenly disappeared......"
He also cast his eyes on the abyss.
Luo Yuheng flew up lightly and plunged into the abyss.
About five minutes later, Luo Yuheng came up with golden light. For the first time, Xu Qian'an
saw extreme anger in her eyes and expression.
"National Master?" He shouted tentatively.
"It's safe below. "Luo Yuheng said without any expression.
What on earth is under the abyss that makes her look so ugly? Xu Qi'an asked for her opinion
with doubt: "I want to go down and take a look."
Luo Yuheng raised a sneer at the corner of his delicate mouth: "It's up to you."
Xu Qi'an jumped into the abyss and did a free fall. Ten seconds later, with a loud bang, he
smashed himself at the bottom of the abyss.
The warrior is really vulgar, not cool at all... He complained in his heart, and then heard a loud
"bang" behind him, and Hengyuan also smashed himself down.
The monk is also vulgar! Xu Qi'an added in his heart.
Hengyuan, who didn't know that he was ridiculed by Lord Xu, opened his mouth and spit out
the relic. The soft and solemn golden light broke through the darkness, allowing the two to
see the scene underground clearly.
Xu Qi'an's face suddenly froze.
As far as the sight can be seen, corpses are everywhere Bones, skulls, ribs, leg bones, hand bones... They piled up into four words: corpses piled up like a mountain.
It is difficult to estimate how many people died here. Over the years, piles of bones have been
piled up.
These are the people that Pingyuan Bo has abducted from the capital and its surrounding areas in the past forty years.
There are men, women, and even children.
They were sent to the underground of the palace, on the dragon vein, and were slaughtered
here, and their lives were taken away by some reason.
How many people died here in forty years....Xu Qian'an's cheek muscles twitched a little bit, and two words popped out from between his teeth: "Beast!"
He seemed to have returned to Chuzhou, and to Zheng Xinghuai's memory, where the people
fell like grass.
"Amitabha..."
Hengyuan put his hands together, bowed his head and chanted the Buddha's name, his burly
body trembling.
He was compassionate, but his heart was filled with rage, the rage of a diamond subduing a
demon.
The trembling was not because of fear, but anger.
After a long time, Xu Qian'an calmed down his agitated emotions and looked at a place that
was not covered by corpses. It was a huge stone plate with twisted and strange runes carved
on it.
Is this teleportation formation the only way to the outside world?
The head of the Earth Sect left through it?
Why did he leave? Why did he choose to leave at this time... Did my last exploration alarm the
other party?
"National Master. "
He looked up and shouted.
Golden light descended from above, Luo Yuheng was suspended in mid-air, looking down at
them, looking down at the abyss, looking down at the mountains of bones.
Luo Yuheng said lightly: "You may have alarmed him last time you came in, so he chose to
leave. Throw the Earth Book over, and I will teleport to that end to check the situation. You go back now and wait for me at the Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion." The other end of the formation may be a trap.
She is simply a clone, and if she is gone, she is gone. She doesn't mind being cannon fodder.
As long as the connection between the main body and the clone is cut off in time, the pollution of the head of the Earth Sect can be avoided.
Xu Qian'an took out the fragment of the Earth Book, manipulated the Qi, sent it to the stone plate, and then poured the Qi into it through the air.
The turbid light lit up, lit up the rune, and opened the teleportation array.
Luo Yuheng turned into a golden light and threw it towards the teleportation array. After touching the light, his body suddenly disappeared and was teleported to the formation connected to the glimmer. At the other end.
Xu Qi'an recalled the fragment of the Earth Book, and quickly evacuated the secret room with
Hengyuan, ran wildly in the corridor, and then teleported back to the Pingyuan Earl's Mansion.
The two left the stone room and walked out of the rockery. Taking advantage of the time, Xu
Qi'an told Hengyuan about the "relationship" between Emperor Yuan Jing and the Taoist leader of the Earth Sect, and told him about the secret case.
He also told him that Taoist Master Jinlian was the good thoughts of the Taoist leader of the
Earth Sect.
Hengyuan was silent for a long time, and sighed: "So that's how it is. I always find it strange
that Taoist Master Jinlian can entangle the evil thoughts of a second-grade master. Well, how can Lord Xu have a fragment of the Earth Book?"
Xu Qi'an's face was normal: "Erlang went to the northern border to fight, and the fragment of
the Earth Book No. 3 was temporarily handed over to me for safekeeping."
Master Hengyuan, you are my last stubbornness...... Hengyuan, who trusted Lord Xu very much, nodded without any doubt. Waiting for a long time in the back garden, until a golden light invisible to ordinary people
flew over and landed on the rockery.
Luo Yuheng stood on the rockery and shook his head gently: "Over there is an uninhabited
house in the inner city."
Uninhabited house? The other side is not the palace, but an uninhabited house?
Xu Qian'an fell into silence.
The Taoist leader of the Earth Sect has left. This... left too decisively. Where did he go? Was he
just scared away by me?
Or, went to the palace?
What about the Supervisor? Does the Supervisor know that he is gone? Will the Supervisor sit
and watch him enter the palace?
Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Luo Yuheng asked: "The clue is broken again?"
Xu Qian'an shook his head and nodded: "The clone of the Taoist leader of the Earth Sect must
have evacuated. Maybe I had already alarmed him when I explored for the first time. But what I don't understand is that he left too hastily and didn't handle his hiding place well. "
Hengyuan frowned and said, "Maybe for the head of the Earth Sect, the goal has been achieved, and what happens in the capital has nothing to do with him?"
Xu Qian'an looked at him, "How do you know that his goal has been achieved? However, if the
head of the Earth Sect doesn't care about the situation of Emperor Yuan Jing, then he can really leave very freely."
Xu Qian'an rubbed his face and exhaled a breath of turbid air: "Never mind, I'll go directly to
the Supervisor."
The head of the Earth Sect left, and there were no more clues in this case. Although there was
no personal admission from the head of the Earth Sect, his speculation was just speculation after all, but these were not important. The piles of bones under the ground are the important evidence.
With Duke Wei no longer here, this matter can only be handled by the Supervisor. I'm afraid
that the Supervisor will not see him like last time.
"Now that I think about it, the Supervisor knows these things, otherwise it would be such a coincidence that he didn't want to see me when I was going to explore the dragon vein last time. But I don't understand why he just stood by and watched coldly? "He whispered. Luo Yuheng frowned and said, "It's really unreasonable."
Just as Xu Qian'an was about to speak, he felt a slap on the back of his head. He rubbed his
head and took out the fragment of the Earth Book. The Earth Book Fragment No. 1 started a private chat with No. 3.
I really want to slap back. What does it feel like to slap a goddess on the back of the head... He
chose to accept it with a complaint in his mind.
[One: I'm at Xu's house, come back quickly.] [Three: What's the matter? By the way, I rescued Hengyuan.]
Huaiqing didn't respond for a long time. After a long time, he sent a letter with doubt: [All
right?]
She meant that they rescued people safely?
[Three: There is really no danger. Let's talk about the details. By the way, what do you want
from me?]
[One: There is a problem with your case. Let's talk about it when we get back to the house.]
