Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

This staircase-shaped secret passage leading underground is not very long. It is surrounded by darkness without any light.

Meng Zhao followed Zhou Gushan's energy, still keeping a safe enough distance, and followed him quietly.

And as it goes deeper into the ground, the thick smell of blood that permeates the air becomes more and more obvious.

After walking like this for about four minutes, I discovered another piece of world, an empty and wide altar-shaped square created by man-made excavations.

The square is paved with rough and strong Yunzhou magnets, each piece inlaid on the excavated soil, forming a very regular circle around the altar.

These Yunzhou magnets are also engraved with murals that have simple lines but seem to contain some kind of profound demonic nature, making the already dark and humid underground become even more eerie and sinister.

This is not the scariest thing. When Meng Zhao used his skills and huddled on the upper edge of the secret passage exit, he saw at a glance that the altar was as sunken as a basin, filled with bright red liquid. It was thick and at the same time, accompanied by There were boiling bubbles constantly emerging.

Gulu, gulu, the rich smell of blood in the air comes from the red liquid.

"Is this all blood? Is that energy hidden in this blood pool?"

Meng Zhao was startled, but he did not get startled. Instead, he kept in the best hiding state.

He vaguely felt that he was about to come into contact with the core secrets of the Zhou family, which might surprise him.

Zhou Gushan had obviously long been accustomed to what he saw in front of him. When he walked out of the secret passage, he jumped lightly to a flat round platform not far from the altar. He knelt down respectfully towards the blood pool and whispered softly. road,

"My grandson Gushan asks grandpa to see him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Zhao's pupils shrank. Isn't Zhou Gushan's grandfather the same Huikong disciple who established the Zhou family's huge business, Zhou Wangqiao?

According to legend, this person had passed away a long time ago. Unexpectedly, it was just a false news spread by the Zhou family. Not only did this person not die, but his martial arts had undergone earth-shaking changes. I am afraid that he had achieved the master martial arts that Huikong had achieved in the past.

However, although Zhou Wangqiao has a poor character, he is still Huikong's direct disciple. Whether it is the Body Sacrifice Technique or the Great Demon Subduing Fist he has learned, they are the most serious Buddhist skills, containing peace and righteousness, and are very attractive.

Why does it seem that he is even more demonic than the masters of the evil path that Meng Zhao saw in Bishui Immortal Palace?

Meng Zhao suppressed the doubts in his heart, held his breath, and quietly paid attention to the changes in the blood pool.

As Zhou Gushan's words fell, the blood pool that was constantly surging with bubbles suddenly experienced a violent change. The large amount of blood was evaporated by the terrifying power and turned into a dense blood mist floating on it.

There were also masses of bright red blood that continuously gathered, condensed, pulled, and deformed, and finally turned into a blood-colored lotus platform, lifting a person hidden in the hazy blood mist in mid-air, as if a Bodhisattva descended to earth.

However, unlike the truly merciful Bodhisattva who saves all sentient beings, this person has a strange and evil aura. The blood lotus under his seat seems to contain endless evil energy, and there are countless ghost hands waving in it, which is more like A great demon, not a Buddha.

Not only that, there were chains as thick as an arm on the front and back of his chest, running through the man's body, locking him firmly in the pool of blood.

As he sat cross-legged on the blood lotus condensed with blood and soared into the air, the four thick chains were straightened and seemed to be in danger of breaking at any time.

"Gushan, what happened?"

Meng Zhao could tell that this person did not speak, nor did he use the so-called ventriloquism. Instead, he vibrated the air with his true energy, causing fluctuations and uttering syllables. Therefore, he seemed very stiff and dry.

When Zhou Gushan saw the person in front of him, he was overjoyed at first, then looked solemn, pouring out his family's current predicament and the aggressive attitude of the Pudu Sect, and finally said,

"Grandpa, my grandson really can't support it anymore, so I want to talk to grandpa to discuss what should be done. If this continues, it won't take long for the foundation created by grandpa to be taught by Pudu. Annexed."

Meng Zhao also heard this clearly, and finally understood that Zhou Gushan was indeed related to the Pudu Sect.

But it seems to be very different from what he expected. The relationship between the two is one of coercion and being coerced. It is not sincere, but may fall out at any time.

It seems that Zhou Gushan can no longer bear the exploitation of Pudu Cult and wants to ask Zhou Wangqiao for advice.

This is strange. In Meng Zhao's view, since the Pudu sect is willing to give the Zhou family a rare treasure Buddha statue that contains the power of the master's martial arts, the relationship between the two parties must be extraordinary, but he did not expect that his guess deviated from the facts. So far.

"No, if this treasure is not to increase the Zhou family's background, then is it to monitor or threaten the Zhou family? Or is the fundamental purpose for the Zhou Wang Bridge in front of us?"

The only one who can make a grandmaster care is the grandmaster.

Master Zhou Wangqiao's martial arts was like a mouse that could not see the light of day. He built such an underground altar in the back house of his house and hid it there, probably because he wanted to avoid danger and trouble.

So, the most likely source of this threat is Huikong, the Thirteen Fierce Monk who was betrayed by him.

Suddenly, an indescribable light burst out in Meng Zhao's mind. He summarized the information he had learned recently and suddenly understood something.

Pudu Sect probably has an unclear relationship with Huikong.

This is by no means pure conjecture, but a conclusion derived from certain facts and information.

Over there, Zhou Wangqiao, above the blood pool, did not realize that his hiding place had been exposed, nor did he expect that there would be a mere innate warrior hiding in front of him, making him unable to detect it.

After hearing Zhou Gushan's complaints and helplessness, he continued to vibrate the air with his true energy and made a sound, saying,

"I already know about this. Just continue to be patient. No matter what the Pudu Sect wants to do, just accept it.

Now that your father is still in the hands of the Pudu Cult, his life is not in danger for the time being, but he can find out the details of the Pudu Cult.

If there is anything unusual about you, I'm afraid your father's life will be in danger.

Gushan, the reason why our Zhou family is able to achieve success is not because of how powerful we are now, but because we have the force and ability to do so.

Even if the Zhou family in Lingwu City is gone, it will not be difficult for the three of us, my grandfather and my grandson, to work together to create a Zhou family that is ten or a hundred times stronger than now.

Don't be blinded by the immediate gains and losses, losing the watermelon and picking up the sesame seeds. "
