Tiexian heirs in the city

Walking into the room, Gu Zheng looked at the similarly simple houses around him, like an ascetic monk, with few things. The only thing that caught his attention was probably the few robe-like clothes, which exuded violent spiritual energy fluctuations.

But at this time, there were scriptures scattered everywhere, almost occupying most of the surrounding space, and Wu Xiang was sitting on a yellow futon in the middle, with a stick of sandalwood slowly burning behind him.

"Gu benefactor, I can feel your help these days, I am really grateful." Wu Xiang stood up and said to Gu Zheng.

"What's wrong with you! How did you suddenly become so vicissitudes!" Gu Zheng looked at the face of Master Wuxiang and said in surprise.

Wuxiang, who was originally a young man in his twenties, seemed to be ten years older at this time, his whole body had changed into a face in his thirties, and even the breath on his body seemed to have changed a little.

"It's okay, I just haven't had a good rest for a long time, and I don't value the appearance of flesh and blood that much." Wu Xiang smiled slightly, as if he didn't put a little bit on his body,

"I asked Master Wuxiang to rest, but he was not sure about resting. He kept saying that there was not enough time, and I didn't understand. It would be nice if we stayed here for more time." Xiaoying, who came over, complained to Gu Zheng road.

"Xiaoying is honest, kind, and extremely intelligent. I can see that you have something to do, so you might as well finish it in one go. Then I will have a good rest." Wu Xiang didn't answer, but said to Gu Zheng.

"That's really troublesome for you. We are helping with some things, and we can help you solve this matter." Gu Zheng said politely.

"The matter can't be solved. The only way is to move everyone out. Fortunately, my task has been completed here. I just can't worry about these people." Wu Xiangxin said with a feeling.

"What else should I do? There is still a huge storm outside, I'm afraid I can't get out." Gu Zheng asked, and after seeing that Xiaoying was all right, he felt relieved.

What I can do, I will be more confident when I open my mouth in the future.

"Then I naturally have a solution. Now one is to mobilize the city to continue preparing for evacuation. I can send people to do this. More importantly, it is to help get rid of some accumulated evil spirits in the city. Don't worry about the small stocks either. The most important thing is that the four arhat statues here must be completely wiped out and clean, and they will be needed to activate the formation in the future." Wu Xiang said carefully.

"Leave this to me. Anyway, I'm idle, so you should take a rest quickly. I'll take Xiaoying away, and we'll talk about it when you feel better." Gu Zheng agreed without hesitation.

"No, I will continue to teach Xiaoying. This is the critical moment, and I can't interrupt at all. At worst, I will rest for a few hundred years, and I will talk about it after this period of time." Facing Gu Zheng's words, Wu Xiang was straightforward. reject.

"Master Wuxiang, don't be so anxious, there is time on the way." Xiaoying said crisply from the side, her immature voice was full of worry, after all, Wuxiang's appearance has changed too much.

"Hehe, I know you guys are worried about me, but how can a person like me be exhausted? It's settled like this. Wait a minute, Xiaoying, and continue to explain to me the scriptures you let you read just now. , Besides, didn’t you say that you vaguely have some new understanding of some exercises, and you can’t interrupt them.” Wuxiang smiled slightly, but still rejected their proposal.

"Okay then, it's really a rare opportunity to comprehend the cultivation technique, so Xiaoying, you can stay here until I recover, or after you finish." Gu Zheng said directly when he heard this, without forcing it.

"Then Master Wuxiang, I will take my leave first."

After Gu Zheng finished speaking, he waved his hand at Xiaoying and retreated towards the outside of the room.

Watching the door close again as he exited, Gu Zheng walked directly outside.

Now that you have agreed to the other party, let's start with the four Arhat statues in the temple.

Gu Zheng knew the positions of the four arhats, they must be in the four corners near the middle, but the top itself is protected by Buddha power, and it is basically the place where pilgrims go to offer incense, and those evil spirits can't get close at all .

Gu Zheng understood the meaning of Wuxiang, and began to check the four statues one by one to see if there was anything missing.

When it was dark, Gu Zheng also came out from the fourth statue. Everything was fine, and there was no evil spirit around the four Arhat halls.

"Hey, whose statue is this!"

Gu Zheng walked in along the main road from the periphery, and was about to go back, but saw a rather strange hall on the way.

There are no candles around the main hall, as if it is deeply hidden here, it is not eye-catching at all.

But this position seems to be leaning against the center and facing downwards. The previous door was closed tightly, but it has been opened now, revealing a figure and a candle lighted by a slightly incense stick.

Gu Zheng thought for a while, and leaned over curiously.

At first glance, it is clear that this hall is not open to ordinary pilgrims, and it is not known who is enshrined in it.

For a while, Gu Zheng flashed many designated Buddhist figures in his mind, but he couldn't think of the reason why they were set up here.

When they walked inside, the three figures inside were shocked when they heard the movement behind them, but when they looked back, they found that it was Gu Zheng, and the vigilance in their hearts dropped again.

"Who is this person?" Gu Zheng couldn't help asking when he saw that Qi Cha, who had led the way before, was also here.

The statue in front of him has been around for some years. It is a strange man who looks old. The lifelike statue is full of wrinkles and looks more like an ordinary old man.

"Gu benefactor, this person is the master of Master Wuxiang, but he has passed away. Every seven days, we will come over to burn incense sticks for the old man and recite scriptures by the way." Seeing Gu Zheng asked, the Qicha asked, Instead, he said quickly.

The other two continued to light the incense candles, and the incense burner in front of them was almost full.

"So that's how it is." Gu Zheng also took out a few sticks from the side and lit them, and put them in the incense burner in front of him, and then said.

"Then you go on, I won't bother you."

Talking about Gu Zheng, he took two steps back, but he didn't leave. He subconsciously looked around to check for evil spirits.

There was also no one sitting on the ground below, with their feet crossed together, their eyes closed, and a sacrificial rite began to be recited almost at the same time.

A faint murmur sounded in this slightly empty hall.

Although these three little monks can be said to have no cultivation, but a peaceful and serene atmosphere permeated from the surroundings, which made people feel very comfortable.

And after Gu Zheng glanced around here, he also found that there was no strange aura around him, so he was about to go back. Suddenly, a faint golden light flashed in front of him, which made Gu Zheng's figure stop, feeling It seems that there is something there.

Gu Zheng looked towards the place where the golden light was shining, and found that it was a book in the hands of the statue in front of him.

But looking at it now, the book is also carved from a stone statue, and it is impossible to open it except for the outline. In Gu Zheng's eyes, it is just a stone, and it is also that gray-white color at this time.

But Gu Zheng noticed that the little smoke from the incense candle below seemed to be slowly being absorbed by the book.

Gu Zheng shifted his gaze to other places again, and at the same time paid a little attention to the stone book that was emitting a strange golden light just now.

But there was nothing suspicious about the other parts. Gu Zheng's gaze was constantly hovering over it. He believed that he was absolutely not dazzled just now, and that as long as the other party appeared again, he would definitely notice it.

After half a day passed, the voices of Qicha and the others also began to lower, as if it was about to end, and there was only the last piece of incense candle in front of them.

When Gu Zheng was about to give up at this time, suddenly he was paying attention to the book all the time, and a touch of gold flashed again, almost turning into pure gold in the blink of an eye.

Gu Zheng had sharp eyes and quick hands, subconsciously sucked it forward, and the stone book inlaid with a stone statue suddenly broke away from it, and fell into Gu Zheng's palm the next moment.

Gu Zheng stared blankly at the golden scripture in his hand, which was as smooth as silk.

And it was originally a full foot thick, but now it is only a few thin layers.

With a glance, I found that the whole book is transparent yellow, and I can see my palm through it.

The tadpole-like golden characters were swimming on it, densely packed in front of Gu Zheng's eyes, but he just took a second look and didn't even open the book page, he felt dizzy and quickly looked away.

"Gu benefactor, we are going to leave and seal this palace." At this time, Qicha and the others got up at some point, ready to leave here.

"Oh!" Gu Zheng subconsciously agreed, and then walked out of the hall with the golden book.

"crunch"

Some heavy doors were slowly pulled back by the two of them. Through the increasingly narrow gap, Gu Zheng clearly saw that the stone book was still in the palm of the statue.

And the golden book in his hand still glowed with a faint golden light, conspicuous like a firefly in the already completely dark darkness.

"Gu benefactor, we're going back first. Is there anything else we need to do? Please just give orders. Master Wuxiang has already said that anything can satisfy your wish." Here, Qicha was stunned when he saw Gu Zheng Land, said again.

"There is nothing for you to do. Can't you see what I have in my hand?" Gu Zheng looked at the other side's eyes and looked at himself. He didn't even look at his hand from the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but put his palm on his chest and asked. road.

"There is nothing, does the ancient benefactor have something for us to pass on?" Qicha asked with a little doubt in his eyes.

"It's okay, you guys go back first, and I'll go back here too." Gu Zheng looked at the scripture in his hand, which was getting dimmer, and decided to go back first.

Unknowingly, it was late at night, and Gu Zheng sat on the bed, looking at the scripture in his hand.

At this time, the tadpole on it was completely motionless, like a dead object, but I couldn't understand the text, it seemed to be a very unpopular text in Buddhism.

Gu Zheng carefully opened the scriptures, which were as thin as cicada's wings, and found that there were only a few pages, and there were golden tadpoles randomly scattered on it every night, fixed on it.

After a long while, Gu Zheng put it away helplessly, he didn't understand at all, it was really a blind man lighting a lamp, it was a waste of effort.

It seems that if you have time to ask Wuxiang, maybe he knows something, after all, it suddenly appeared from the statue of his master.

Let's wait for Xiaoying to come out, then ask Wuxiang.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Zheng spent three days completely eradicating all the slightly larger evils in the temple, and then turned around and walked out of the city.

"Guizi's father, how did you do it? I just left for a while. Look at Guizi's body covered in mud. Don't you know that you can't afford to buy another one after washing it?"

"I just turned my head, and he fell to the ground, knowing the money."

"It was you"

"I"

Gu Zheng was walking in a small alley, listening to a person next to him, who became very angry because of a small incident, and had to shake out all the shortcomings of the other party.

Looking at the bright golden shield in the sky, traces of invisible golden light spots fall from the sky all the time, falling towards the bottom, purifying the faint evil energy in the air.

Therefore, the mood of all the people in the city below is a little irritable, and they quarrel at every turn, but try to restrain themselves, because everyone knows that this situation is threatening to make trouble and expand the negative emotions in their hearts.

Gu Zheng glanced at the usually invisible black mist, and raised his hand, a large piece of light burst out from his hand, and swept towards the surroundings like a storm.

Half a day later, Gu Zheng walked towards another street again.

As the surrounding evil spirits were temporarily swept away, the couple who had just quarreled suddenly stopped.

"sorry!"

The two shouted at the same time, and the nameless fire in their hearts disappeared almost instantly.

Three streets later, Gu Zheng returned to the temple again and swallowed a pill to speed up his recovery.

It lasted another ten days. Fortunately, Shahai City is not a big city, otherwise Gu Zheng would have died of exhaustion inside.

Even Gu Zheng feels that the situation is getting better and better now, and all the evil spirits seem to have disappeared.

And the people in the city were also mobilized, packed up their belongings one after another, and waited for an opportune time to let Wuxiang lead them out of here and migrate to the nearest country.

But when Gu Zheng finally finished everything that day, he returned to his room when the night was about to fall, only to find that small figures were already waiting for him inside.

"Young master!"

The small voice sounded in the air in surprise.

"It's such a coincidence that you came back just after I finished everything here. It seems that Master Wuxiang's calculations are accurate." Gu Zheng looked at Xiaoying and said with a smile.

I haven't seen her for half a month, but Xiaoying has a faint Buddha's light on her body, like an eminent monk.

But there is also an advantage, that layer of Buddha's light actually covered up Xiao Ye's aura, even people in the late stage of Da Luo might not be able to discover it.

"That is, Master Wuxiang praised me, saying that I am a genius among geniuses, hehe, and let me go to a tower for ten years, and the outside world has only been ten days. I have almost all of his knowledge. It’s all hollowed out, I’m good.” Xiaoying smiled like a flower, and kept spinning around in front of Gu Zheng, as if asking for credit.

"However, I still haven't comprehended my own skills. I feel a little bit worse. Is it because I am a ghost, and I can only improve myself by devouring others." In the blink of an eye, the happy Xiaoying stood up again. With a straight face, he said with some inferiority.

"Ten years!" Gu Zheng muttered in his heart, thinking of the nine-storied pagoda, which can even interfere with the passage of time, can a grain of sand create a world? It seems that this time he really took advantage of the other party's favor.

Although it's not for myself, I have to bear it, after all, it's for my soul boy Xiaoying in name.

In comparison, what I did was a little trivial.

"Of course not, I have never seen a ghost who can practice Buddhism, and also delve into it so deeply. Besides, you have only practiced for a few days, and others may not be as good as you after millions of years." Gu Zheng said Said comfortingly.

Although Gu Zheng didn't know exactly what level she could reach at this time, but based on his own observations, he could perceive that the other party had at least reached the level of the Golden Immortal Stage, which was really terrifying.

Although everything is attributed to her own foundation, she also said how amazing her comprehension is, no wonder Wuxiang wanted to teach her so eagerly.

"Besides, some things also need chance. Maybe the next time you have no experience, you will be able to complete the idea in your heart." Gu Zheng continued to comfort.

"Enen, I see." Xiaoying's dark face came and went quickly, and after hearing all kinds of words, she felt that she was a little eager for success.

"However, I feel that Master Wuxiang didn't teach me one thing in the end. He was explaining well, so he kicked me out. It's a pity. It's not like asking me to come back to reunite with you, but like driving me out. It's so strange." Xiaoying watched Gu Zheng walk into the room to rest at the table, and said with some doubts.

"Perhaps there is something urgent. Take a look, do you know this?" Gu Zheng took out the book he got, put it on the table, and said to Xiaoying.

"It's familiar, but I don't recognize it." Xiaoying flew over, looked at the tadpole above and said, "Master Wuxiang explained the origin of this kind of text to me in the end, and I came out just at the beginning, but I know two of them. word."

"Is it about Buddhism?" Gu Zheng asked with interest.

"No, there is this and this. They are the two characters of earth and hell. It's really strange. The two characters are so far apart, but why do they give me a very scary feeling?" Here Xiaoying suddenly shuddered. The little face also turned pale.

"Then don't read it, don't force yourself." Gu Zheng put away the book in front of him and said in a deep voice.

"Before it's too late, let's ask Master Wuxiang, maybe he knows something."

As they spoke, the two walked towards the back while the night was not completely dark.

They were not very fast, and by the time they reached the gate of the backyard, it was already completely dark.

At this time, a little monk came out of the backyard in a daze, not knowing what to do.

"What's going on?" Gu Zheng grabbed the other party and found that he was one of the members who sacrificed with Qi Cha last time.

"I'm going to inform the fellow disciples that Senior Brother Qing has disappeared, and I've searched around just now." Seeing that it was Gu Zheng, the little monk said with restraint.

"How is that possible? When I came out in the afternoon, I saw him guarding the door." Xiaoying subconsciously said in surprise.

"Forget it, you go first, let's go to Master Wuxiang first." Gu Zheng let go of the little monk, and hurriedly walked inside with a serious expression.
