The Old Gods Are Whispering

Gu Jianlin stared at the painting for a long time and remained silent.

"When your father came to this store for the first time, he also stared at this painting for a long time. I have to say that your father and son's talents in this area are really extraordinary. This painting is actually A facsimile copy, the original was burned thousands of years ago."

Jing Ci took out a bottle of wine with an English label from the container, and walked up to him with a smile: "In the Eastern Han Dynasty's "Chu Ci Zhangju", it is recorded that there is a dark and sunless country in the northwest of the sky, and there is a dragon holding a candle to illuminate it. .”

He paused: "Its authentic work is a painting from the Warring States period, and its name is Jiuyin."

Gu Jianlin squinted his pupils, and his pupils trembled slightly: "Master Candle Dragon? Is this painting Venerable Candle Dragon?"

"I can't say that. The one in the painting is indeed an ancient god, but it can only be confirmed that it is from the Zhulong clan. Because in this world, there are not many people who have really seen Venerable Zhulong."

Jing Ci stood beside him, admiring the painting with him, gently opened the wine bottle, and swirled the liquid inside: "And there are only two people who have seen him and are still alive."

Gu Jianlin was silent for a second, looking at the old man sleeping soundly on the mahogany lounge chair.

"Yes, one of them is him."

Jing Ci nodded slightly: "It's just that the teacher has never seen Venerable Candle Dragon's human form. In the fight between the two of them, Venerable Candle Dragon was forced to use ancient deification in the human world, so he couldn't see the details clearly. look."

Gu Jianlin asked curiously, "Where's the other person?"

Jing Ci pointed to himself: "I, although I was rescued by the teacher."

Gu Jianlin thought that the extraordinary image of this person was unbelievably huge, like a giant spirit.

If there is no accident, it is at least Sanctuary level.

"I am the way of killing ghosts, and the way of killing ghosts is derived from the legendary invincible Zhulong Venerable. When I was promoted to the sanctuary, I also wanted to feel the ultimate power. It just so happens that the ancients of Buzhou Mountain The ancestors...that is, those god servants who defected to the ancient gods provoked me. Well, you understand."

Jing Ci said indifferently: "That killing was very fun, and I also snatched some dragon marrow liquid by the way. You see, some things are just such a coincidence. If I didn't want to go out for a while when I was young, I just snatched some Come here with the dragon marrow liquid, if you use the ancient deification this time, you will probably lie in bed for half a year."

Gu Jianlin thought it's no wonder, in fact, before he fell into a coma, he had a premonition that his body was about to collapse.

But when I woke up, apart from the side effects of ancient deification, I didn't have any other feelings.

"Thanks."

he said sincerely.

Jing Ci said lightly: "There is nothing to thank, you are my junior, so don't be so polite."

Gu Jianlin was stunned when he heard the word junior.

"By the way, have you read the official materials of the Aether Association, the "Self-cultivation of God Division"?"

Jing Ji took a look at him and said, "There is a quote from the teacher, Shensi is the strongest way."

Gu Jianlin hummed.

"Just listen to this matter. Shensi is indeed strong, but Jianzong and Ghost Slayer are not weak. The teacher's argument is that he is the strongest among humans, and he is Shensi, so Shensi strongest."

Jing Ci said meaningfully: "But if you open up the pattern and take a look at those ancient supreme beings, Venerable Zhulong is recognized as the strongest. Then according to this theory, is Zhangui the strongest? If If you want to change jobs, there is still time when you reach the third level, anyway, you haven't formally apprenticed to a teacher yet, so the teacher can't control you."

As soon as the words were finished, the old man on the recliner coughed suddenly, and his face was not very good-looking.

Gu Jianlin took a look at the master and apprentice, and probably understood.

The Blue King first set his sights on his father.

However, his father eventually became a celestial master.

Later, Jing Ci became the old man's apprentice, but stubbornly chose the way of killing ghosts.

Gu Jianlin could vaguely sense that the old man was very angry.

Otherwise, you won't be thinking about yourself all the time.

Even as soon as he became a priest, he ran to the gate of Fengcheng No. 2 Middle School and deliberately came to see him.

He also taught him the method of ancient deification, for fear that he would die.

I really care about it.

Gu Jianlin turned around and bowed slightly to the old man: "Don't worry, I probably won't change jobs."

After all, it was the power of the unicorn that guided him to choose Shensi.

If there is no accident, the path of Shensi is derived from Venerable Qilin!

The old man still had his eyes closed, but his expression became much more relaxed.

"That's because you haven't seen the power of the ghost-slaying path."

Jing Ci shook his head and said, "Have you ever played "Devil May Cry"?"

Gu Jianlin didn't understand why he said this, and nodded slightly: "I played."

Jing Ci smiled and said, "Which one do you prefer, Dante or Virgil?"

Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment: "If we talk about people, it must be Dante. But if we talk about weapons, I will choose Yan Modao."

Jing Ci patted him on the shoulder, and said lightly: "Isn't that enough? The ability of the ghost-slaying path, in terms of external performance, is actually similar to Yan Modao. I will let you feel it in a while."

He said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a place first."

Gu Jianlin hesitated for a second, then looked back at the old man on the reclining chair.

"Don't worry, don't worry about him, old man. Although the core ability of the ghost-slaying path is to master the gap between time and space and the speed force, it is recognized as the fastest path, not one of them. But the Shensi path is indeed very comprehensive, I have to admit Yes, in terms of my current rank, I am still not as fast as my teacher."

Jing Ci handed him the bottle: "Bourbon, do you want a drink?"

Gu Jianlin shook his head: "I don't drink."

Jing Ci didn't say much, and walked out of the grocery store with the wine bottle in one hand and his other hand in his pocket.

Gu Jianlin looked at his back with an unspeakable aura.

The profile portrait is full of traces of the story.

"Are you using profile on me? Just practice it on me."

Jing Ci didn't look back, and said with a smile: "Your father should have said that everyone's life experience is different, and the difficulty of profile is also different. Some people are like a thin-page resume, from birth to school to graduation Finding a job, getting married and having children, until old age and death, is a straight line without twists and turns, and it is clear at a glance."

He paused: "But in the extraordinary world, there are always some joys and sorrows that you can't imagine, and you can't even make up a story. Such a person cannot be profiled by characteristics."

Gu Jianlin followed thoughtfully, expressing that he understood.

Jing Ci led him into the alley at the corner of the street: "There are few people here, so let's stay here."

The alley was empty, except for a yellow dog napping on the ground in the afternoon sun.

There are also a few white cats on the fence, wagging their tails boredly.

It was quiet.

At this time, Gu Jianlin suddenly noticed something, turned around and narrowed his eyes.

Across the busy long street, someone quickly turned around and walked into a bank.

"It looks like someone is following us."

Gu Jianlin stood in the alley, staring at the crowd passing by across the street.

The roaring vehicles blocked his sight, and the exhaust fumes were choking.

After those vehicles disappeared, the people on the street who had obvious abnormalities also disappeared.

"We don't care about such small things."

Jing Ci said slowly: "Even if the teacher officially accepts you as a disciple, he won't care about that kind of bastard."

Gu Jianlin thought about it for a while, and it's true that saving the world's people shouldn't depend on these miscellaneous fish messing around.

"The teacher has already started teaching you breathing techniques, and you still have forbidden spells to learn later. When you have learned these two skills, your strength will be upgraded to another level, so that you have the ability to protect yourself."

Jing Ci turned his back to him: "As for your family, I will protect them, don't worry."

Gu Jianlin fell into confusion: "First of all, what are breathing techniques and forbidden spells? Secondly..."

When did the old man teach him breathing?

"Forbidden curse is more complicated to say, and it will not be explained clearly for a while."

Jing Ji smiled and said: "As for the breathing technique, this thing has many benefits. Don't you think that every time you finish a fight, your spiritual recovery is very slow? Don't you think that without taking the spiritual medicine, Is the speed of accumulating spirituality through meditation really hopeless? Of course, there are many other benefits."

Suddenly, he raised his right hand and plunged into the void.

Accompanied by a beeping tremor, he actually pulled out a black sword inch by inch from the void.

click.

There was no movement of swinging the knife at all, but the trembling sound of the blade rippled in the void, and I saw countless stern cold lights criss-crossing, and the surrounding space-time was like a broken mirror, fragmented!

The silent alley was cut apart and shot out like fragments, and a huge black vortex materialized out of thin air.

Gu Jianlin felt that the world was spinning and the world was roaring.

·

·

The world rotates like a kaleidoscope, the sky is white, and the streetscape is distorted.

Gu Jianlin was dizzy, nauseated, and his body swayed.

"vomit."

In fact, he wasn't so fragile in the first place, it was just because his body was too weak to stand the toss.

It was clearly only a momentary effort, but he seemed to be on a roller coaster for a whole day, rushing forward under the huge centrifugal force and acceleration, his consciousness was almost thrown out, and his soul flew out of the sky.

"It's okay, it's just that you are not suitable for traveling through time and space under the blessing of the speed force."

Jing Ci patted him on the back: "If you want to vomit, vomit, you will get used to it in the future."

Gu Jianlin almost vomited up his breakfast, and it was pitch black before his eyes.

He forced himself to take a deep breath, suppressed the feeling of dizziness, and it took him a few seconds to come back to his senses. After his vision regained clarity again, the scene in front of him shocked him endlessly.

The space he was in was no longer the same alley as before.

It was an abandoned construction site under a viaduct, surrounded by lush weeds, and there were sad ruts on the ground.

The yellow dog and kitten in the alley looked around blankly, not knowing why they appeared here.

What is even more surprising is that a grocery store appeared under the viaduct at some point.

The door of the shop was open, and the old man was lying on the mahogany recliner, breathing long and deeply.

Unexpectedly, this grocery store appeared here!

"It's amazing, isn't it?"

Jing Ci smiled and said: "Actually, it's nothing surprising. This grocery store is essentially a mythical weapon. It can be regarded as the teacher's RV. It can be reset in space and overlaps with the time and space of the real world. It is similar to a mini ancient The God Realm. And the ability to move across space is due to the ability of the high-ranking gods.”

He explained: "The core ability of Shensi is to control dark energy and dark matter. Have you ever heard of a curvature spaceship? It often appears in science fiction. Its principle is to use huge dark energy to bend time and space. In theory, you stand on the original The ground did not move, but the space changed, allowing you to appear in another location."

Gu Jianlin blinked, although his face was still expressionless, he was shocked in his heart.

This ability sounds a bit against the sky.

However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered a clue.

That is the old man's breath.

Gu Jianlin's observation ability is very keen. When he noticed the breathing rate of the old man, he felt an inexplicable charm, as if it coincided with some mysterious law.

It seems that everything in the world is exhaling according to this law, and the old man and nature become one.

"Don't worry, feel it well, experience it well, breathing technique is not so easy to learn."

Jing Ci said lightly: "You should be very familiar with this place. It is the place where you were taken away by Li Changzhi and the battle took place. At that time, you were not a priest. Teacher and I were busy with other things and didn't notice you. Later we came to I took a look and found some interesting things."

He raised his feet and stepped over the thick grass, and came to the depths of the thick woods, where he stopped.

"Look, there's a footprint here."

He smiled and said, "When your accident happened, someone was standing here."

Gu Jianlin hesitated for a second, then followed.

When he saw this footprint, he hesitated for a second.

Several days had passed, and there was still heavy rain in Fengcheng, but the footprints were still there.

The footprints are deep, and its owner should be very powerful.

But looking at the size of the footprints, I felt that the person weighed very little.

"At that time, you didn't have life perception, so you didn't discover the existence of this person. Of course, I don't think you can discover this person even with your current level. Mu Feng told you not to rely too much on profiling and life perception. Although he It is obsolete now, but he was the elite of the elite back then."

Jing Ci raised three fingers: "Next, I will take you to three more places, namely the roof of the teaching building of Fengcheng No. 2 Middle School, the top floor of the hotel in Heiyun City Walled City, and a place you don't want to remember... "

Seeing his meaningful eyes, Gu Jianlin narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, it's the highway where your father died."

Jing Ci looked into his eyes and paused every word: "The teacher's request to you is that after we finish watching these three places, you have to remember the frequency of the breathing technique. You are not required to be able to enter meditation immediately, after all Breathing is the essence of the thousands of years of human history, it is the advantage of human beings against the ancient gods, the only treasure that belongs to us humans, not from the ancient gods, it is not so easy to learn."

He smiled slightly: "Get ready, we will cross again."
