Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 477: An unexpected fate

Views:

Zhao Changhe was not wronged. He said the two rooms were just a random number without thinking about it. How could he have the time to practice double cultivation at this time? No matter how he thought about it, this time and this place were not right.

Although he and Yue Hongling were indeed injured and tired at the moment and needed rest, it was not serious. It was enough for them to have some rest time by taking some medicine and meditating.

Zhao Changhe treated Han Wubing for a round of treatment, then sat down cross-legged with a somewhat tired look on his face. The room suddenly became quiet.

Yue Hongling's tilted head changed direction again.

Seeing him like this, it seems that I am the one who is thinking of the dual cultivation, not him...

Really... I was led astray.

Soon, the leader of the spirit tribe personally brought barbecue and fruit wine. Apparently because Zhao Changhe had said "do not disturb", he did not even dare to say a word. He put down the food and bowed and left.

Zhao Changhe opened his eyes and looked at Yue Hongling. For the first time, he felt guilty about eating. He wanted to pay, but it was inappropriate. Since he was pretending to be an envoy, the envoy would not be polite.

Yue Hongling shook her head, took out the barbecue and examined it: "Eat it first, and remember to give back when you have the chance."

"Hmm." Zhao Changhe whispered, "From this point of view, the situation of the Ancient Spirit Tribe is not good... What kind of forbidden land is this? They treat them as slaves?"

Yue Hongling said, "So Sisi has to go out and seek another breakthrough... When we first met, she was very open-minded and willing to do anything. She even dared to steal the things of the thief saint. When she was pretending to be the Maitreya Saint, she would kneel down when you pressed her. She really put everything aside. Conscience and reserve were meaningless to her."

Zhao Changhe asked curiously, "How did you suddenly know about the Thief Saint? I think I only told you about one senior."

"Sisi told me herself that she felt guilty towards her master. I didn't know who this was before. How could I not connect the dots after seeing the Thief Saint just now? Do you think I'm a fool?" Yue Hongling said unhappily, "Why are you hiding it from me? What's there to hide?"

"This is an internal matter of the sect. It is a family scandal and should not be spread around."

"My husband, my husband, do you think I'm your wife? Am I an outsider?"

Zhao Changhe raised his hands in surrender.

Yue Hongling snorted, "So she cheated you later but didn't want to hurt you. It was already very difficult. She likes you very much, right?"

Zhao Changhe finally understood what was going on with Yue Hongling's abnormal temper. It turned out that she was jealous, so he just ate his meat in silence.

Han Wubing ate the barbecue slowly and glanced at him.

So, even a straightforward woman like Yue Hongling can't help but feel jealous... Moreover, three women make a scene. How can a martial artist not be confused in this situation? How can he still focus on martial arts and make progress without any distractions? This doesn't make sense.

But this fellow's cultivation was really terrifyingly fast. Judging from the battle just now, especially the last blow that killed Ying Shuang in one second, Han Wubing was sure that he could not beat him even in his best condition.

It's really like seeing a ghost.

Yue Hongling asked: "Do you want to help the Ancient Spirits solve this problem of forbidden land?"

Zhao Changhe pondered and said, "We can't talk about solving the problem without knowing the other party's strength, but we have to find out... Let's not talk about the right and wrong of both sides for now. We do need the help of the Ancient Spirits in many things. If we can use it as a condition for exchange, it would be a good idea."

Yue Hongling did not try to figure out whether he wanted to help Sisi or not, and said seriously: "The opponent's strength may be very strong... From Sisi's practice, we can see that although her martial arts are average, she has a lot of strange and bizarre routines. She is still young, so we know how many powerful wizards there are in the tribe. Such a force can compete with Lei Zhentang's Black Miao tribe even in Miaojiang, and may even be better. But they are suppressed so embarrassingly by this forbidden area."

Zhao Changhe nodded slightly: "Yes, the Ancient Spirits should be stronger than the Black Miao... This forbidden area, if nothing unexpected happens, is filled with ancient gods and demons, whose strength is at least at the level of the corpse demon in the Maitreya Secret Realm. By the way, the corpse demon has Gu magic... Hey, I brought the corpse demon with me, I actually forgot about it!"

Yue Hongling glared at him unhappily.

But Zhao Changhe took out a cloth bag from somewhere and probed it with his mind.

There was a black bug inside, sleeping in a daze.

This should be the poisonous insect that the remnant soul inhabits. Because it was searched by the sisters Suzaku and Xuanwu fiercely, causing chaos in its soul sea, if it was a weaker one, it would have died or turned into an idiot long ago. For this one, it is relatively better, just sleeping all the time, and if no one disturbs it, it will probably continue to sleep.

Starting from Bashan, Zhao Changhe encountered too many things along the way that caused him to forget about this matter. In fact, from the beginning, he thought that the trigger for coming to Miaojiang was caused by this person's poisonous insect. He felt that there must be a connection, so Wanzhuang specially gave the bag to himself.

If not used now, when will it be used

Zhao Changhe mobilized his spirit and awakened the insect.

A majestic will came from the insect: "Who dares to disturb my sleep..."

"Are you pretending to be your mother? You are still acting like a defeated general. Do you think a new Maitreya has come and picked you up?"

"… "

The corpse demon seemed to be more awake, and recognized that this was Zhao Changhe, the weakest person who had besieged him before, and sneered, "It's you. Suzaku and Xuanwu can destroy my soul, and I am afraid of them. Who the hell are you to yell at me?"

Zhao Changhe's mind moved slightly, and the dragon bird stood up in the ring, facing the poisonous insect.

The corpse demon's soul flew away: "Character sword spirit!" Character... Longque has a shitty character... Oh no, this is the third character of heaven, earth and man? If this concept is true, I have a feeling that Longque is going to curse.

As expected, Longque flew into a rage: "Character? Why am I just a person of character? Can a spirit of character have such a clear will? I think you have been searched by someone and turned into an idiot!"

"Earth, Earth Grade?" The corpse demon was a little uncertain: "But the strength is not enough..."

"Bang!" Long Que slashed down with his sword. Zhao Changhe, sweating profusely, gave an order and barely dragged the runaway loli aside: "No matter what this idiot says, in my heart you are a top-grade. No, I won't change even a top-grade one!"

The dragon bird fell silent, then raised its head slightly and pressed down on the insect: "Can I destroy your soul?"

"Yes, yes..."

"Answer whatever my master asks you. Stop talking nonsense!"

The insect also became quiet.

Zhao Changhe also fell silent. Being called "Master" felt really strange. Don't worry, just for this word, I will never abandon you no matter how much I practice sword skills...

After a long while, he asked, "Where did you get your witchcraft?"

The corpse demon was very honest this time: "I am a member of the spirit tribe, so I naturally know witchcraft."

He really is a member of the Spirit Tribe. Zhao Changhe was somewhat expecting this, but he still asked, "With your monotonous corpse-controlling Gu technique, how can you say you are a member of the Spirit Tribe?"

The Corpse Demon said, "A good cook cannot cook without rice... Gu magic requires the cultivation of Gu. I am trapped in the backyard of the dilapidated temple. I can't even leave for a long time. Where can I get Gu worms? It was not easy to trick Maitreya into helping me get the most needed corpse-controlling Gu..."

"Most urgent need..."

"Yes, even a fool can see that I want to seize his body. There is no other way but to rely on this to achieve it. If this is not the most urgent thing, what is it? But he went through so much trouble to help me find the ladder to seize his body."

Zhao Changhe was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "The Spiritual Tribe was the enemy of the Buddhists in the Central Plains at that time? So you were imprisoned as a demon?"

"There are conflicts. Different ethnic groups are not so harmonious, but they are not enemies. I was caught purely because of my own business. I manipulated the poisonous insects to control others to gain benefits, and I also sneaked into the temple of the bald donkeys for their lotus, which offended the bald donkeys... It has nothing to do with the spirits. Of course, after I was caught, the spirits should have troubled the bald donkeys, but the sky fell soon, and I guess no one cared about me. I can only say that it was fate..."

"Will the Eldar cause trouble for you? Do you have a high status in the Eldar?"

The corpse demon was quite proud: "Of course, I am the guardian of the sacred beasts of the spirit race. Not only do I have a high status, but I am the only one who knows how to control the sacred beast Blood Turtle. Without me, the spirit race will have a headache to save it."

Blood Turtle... Why does this word sound so familiar...

Zhao Changhe was stunned for a long time: "It seems that there is no need to save it. The blood turtle was stolen and killed."

"?" The poisonous insect possessed by the corpse demon widened its small eyes: "Did Lie do it? I feel that you have the scent of this slave on you. You are his descendant, right!"

Zhao Changhe suddenly felt that they were destined to be together.

After all this time, it turned out that the guard dog that Lie scolded was from the Guling tribe, and the group of people he killed with one sword were all ancestors of the Guling tribe... I wonder if Sisi's ancestors were among them.

Lie was born a slave... From this whole story, he was probably once a slave of the ancient elves, so his name is different from that in Middle-earth.

No wonder the Blood God Cult is also a blood and flesh sect, and is particularly interested in "witch", even the location is Wushan. And Sisi was interested in the "evil spirit treasure" at that time, and her knowledge was better than that of ordinary people. There must be records related to evil spirits in their tribe, although people today have not learned it.

There is also a great possibility that the martial arts of the ancient spirit tribe were lost because a group of fierce men in the combat sequence were killed violently, resulting in problems in inheritance, and only the witchcraft and sorcery for guarding the family were passed down.

This fate is interesting, but it’s a pity that Master Xue has never come into contact with the spirit race in his life. But it doesn’t matter, because the Son of God is here.

The corpse demon was asking: "You are Lie's descendant, so you come to trouble me? The fucking blood turtle was killed by you, why are you still looking for me? Are you controlling the blood turtle corpse? "

Zhao Changhe looked very strange: "If your spirit race is being bullied, what do you think?"

The corpse demon was furious: "Apart from the inheritance of that slave, who else dares to bully our spirit race! I will fight you!"

The dragon bird pressed down on the restless poisonous insect.

Corpse Demon: “…”

Zhao Changhe turned around and sighed to Yue Hongling, who was watching him communicate with him mentally without understanding what was going on: "I seem to have found a very powerful helper, although it's a little stupid now."
