Chapter 124: Leaving the Seclusion
Chapter 124: Coming Out "Two Chapters in One"
Although he encountered strange things one after another, Bai Zhi considered that it was rare to go out, so he took Bai Huahua and Jiuwei for a walk down the mountain. When he saw that the sky was getting dark, he returned home.
As for the suspected spiritual treasure at the bottom of the waterfall, Bai Zhi sensed that there was a barrier and was reluctant to rush in. He planned to wait for the strength to recover before exploring.
Back at the Holy Lady's Mansion, Bai Huahua slipped to the bottom of the lake to sleep, while Bai Zhi told Yang Shining what happened during today's trip. Of course, he omitted the ghostly animal scene of three spiders courting their mates, as well as the 'immortality' mentioned by Jiugong Luling. Reincarnation Gu'.
"Ye Chuyang is back?" Yang Shining looked slightly surprised.
"Is he really the Holy Son you taught?" Although Bai Zhi was prepared, he still didn't expect such a coincidence.
"Well, the physical characteristics of those three spiders are very consistent with Ye Chuyang's contract monster, and Jiuwei knows him." Yang Shining was absolutely certain.
"Didn't you say that he went out to travel?" Bai Zhi curled his lips secretly, wondering if you, a saint, can be reliable? Why is the information so limited?
"It seems... it has something to do with the fact that the leader is about to leave seclusion." Yang Shining thought for a while and said.
"......What did you say?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bai Zhi, I just heard the elder's notice. I didn't expect that the leader who had been in seclusion for more than three years would suddenly come out of seclusion. That Ye Chuyang had been away from Jiuli Dongtian for three years. Since then, He went out to practice since the leader went into retreat, and he came back only after hearing the news..." Yang Shining said embarrassedly.
Bai Zhi couldn't help but become a little worried. After the leader Ruona discovered the truth that Yang Shining was his human servant, it would be a little troublesome to take action against him.
This feeling is a bit similar to...the feeling of sneaking away someone's daughter, but being discovered by the daughter's father.
"Experience... He is just like you on campus, scaring people everywhere and creating weird legends?" Bai Zhi said coldly.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Yang Shining's face:
"The reason why he went out to study was to experience the world of mortals, solve secret extraordinary events, and find strangers and monsters to accept from the Jiuli Sect. If his purpose was more for the Jiuli Sect, then I chose to study in Xingzhuan. It was for myself, of course, I hid it from the leader..."
"To be precise, it's to... retrieve my lost memory."
"What memory?"
"It's probably... a memory from my childhood. This memory is very important to me, but I remember that there seemed to be a 'Nine Death Silkworms'. I once asked the holy object for its explanation, and learned about the memory. The key is the Xingchuan School in Yongan City..."
Another nine-death silkworm!
Before Bai Zhi could ask, Yang Shining rushed to explain:
"The Nine-Dead Silkworm is in the hands of the leader. It is said to have the characteristics of immortality. The specific ability is unknown, but it will cause great harm to the owner. Almost no one can own it for a long time. The past owners of the Nine-Dead Silkworm all met a tragic end without exception. , until the leader became the master of the Nine Death Silkworms and ended this misfortune."
Hearing this, Bai Zhi couldn't help but become curious about the Jiuli leader, "Why can he control the Nine Death Silkworms?"
"I don't know the specific reason, but the elders once accidentally revealed that the reason why they were able to suppress the Nine Death Silkworms may have something to do with the leader's dragon."
Yang Shining began to introduce to Bai Zhi the man who held the supreme power of the Jiuli Sect.
The real name of the leader of the Jiuli Sect is unknown. He has an extraordinary bearing and is restrained and deep.
He has been teaching for several years, and he became the leader long before Yang Shining started teaching. It was he who personally named and cultivated Yang Shining and Ye Chuyang to become saints and saints. To a certain extent, the leader of Jiuli was both a master and a superior to Yang Shining, and he had the kindness of knowing him.
And he was able to take the position of the leader and be recognized by the Presbyterian Church, naturally because of his outstanding talent, and he cultivated a dragon as a contracted monster, subdued the Nine Death Silkworms, and was truly the best in the entire sect.
Nine Death Silkworms......
Dragon...
There are two trump cards, one is an immortal insect, and the other is a giant beast that can defeat a thousand enemies.
He is worthy of being a stranger who can compete with the leader of the Witch Gu Clan and stand at the top of the extraordinary world of the Federation...
After listening to Yang Shining's story, Bai Zhi's impression of the leader stopped at the dragon he raised.
놇When Yang Shining was injected with mutated venom by Bai Zhi, the former said that no one from the Jiuli Sect could threaten Bai Zhi unless the leader came out of seclusion. Therefore, Bai Zhi even had a heart-to-heart relationship with the leader of Jiuli and the leader. The idea of fighting between dragons.
Of course, this is limited to imagination. For Bai Zhi, whose soul consciousness is currently secretly injured, the most important thing is to recuperate.
At the same time, it is more curious about the Nine Death Silkworm and the Immortal Reincarnation Gu bred by the Nine Death Silkworm.
"By the way, I also encountered a white deer at the waterfall..." Bai Zhi suddenly said, and described the appearance of the Jiugong Deer Spirit to Yang Shining.
"What?"
Who would have thought that Yang Shining immediately took a breath of cold air and said in astonishment: "People from Bai Zhi actually saw it?"
"What is its identity?" Bai Zhi's tone was a little anxious.
"it......"
Yang Shining suddenly hesitated, "It is what I once called a 'holy object' in the sect..."
Holy objects are alive! ?
As if guessing Bai Zhi's doubts, Yang Shining continued:
"Since I became a saint, I can count on one hand the number of times I have seen sacred objects. It is a white statue of an immortal deer. I heard from the leader that the immortal deer occasionally 'comes to life' and comes to life in September. Wandering around in the Lidong sky, he shows his sage and enlightens those who are destined to do so.”
"Holy objects contain the way of 'creation', transforming ordinary things into magical ones. They can assist in spiritual practice, help monsters open up their spiritual wisdom, and even advance in their transformation. In addition, they can also divine traces of fate and clues of chance... ..."
It turns out that the sacred objects of the Jiuli Sect really help to transform. Yang Shining didn't lie to me before... Bai Zhi suddenly understood.
...
One 꿂 later.
Jiuli Cave Sky, a green mountain adjacent to Qiu Mountain, is home to a palace, which is built like a fairy palace and is magnificent.
The three characters "Jiuli Palace" are written on the forehead of the gate of the palace. It is made of blue colored glaze with vigorous brushwork. I don't know which master's hand it was. Tassels made of gold and silver beads are hung on the four corners of the palace. When the breeze blows, the gold vibrates, as if a stream of fairy music is floating from the sky.
Under the stage of the 놇꺶 Hall, 굛 figures faced the main seat on the high platform, with different expressions, some nervous, some uneasy, some expectant, some confused. Among these people, Yang Shining and Ye Chuyang were prominently included.
"Ning'er, we haven't seen you for such a long time. Do you miss me?"
As soon as he saw Yang Shining, Ye Chuyang came over with a playful smile.
"Your Highness the Holy Son, please don't call me that. Am I familiar with you?"
Yang Shining looked straight ahead without any deviation.
"Alas, we have only been separated for three years, and the Saint is so heartless that she completely forgot about my good brother." Ye Chuyang sighed, looking melancholy.
"Bah! Tell me, how many girls have been harmed in the past three years?" Yang Shining glanced at him.
"Hey, Ning'er, in the past three years, I have had you in my heart, and I have been thinking about reuniting with you and getting married..." Ye Chuyang said with a sad face, as if he had been hurt. Don't feel wronged.
"You're such a playboy, I thought you were out of touch and couldn't bear to come back." Yang Shining said sarcastically.
"Well......"
Ye Chuyang's mouth twitched, "Can you please pronounce the word 'piao' a second time? Besides, in the past three years, I have been busy slaying demons and defending the Tao, protecting the poor people from the sky, how can I have any merit? Grass......"
Yang Shining mocked herself and said: "You have a good mind, so naturally you feel guilty about everything you listen to. Now that the world is stable, it is enough to have the Secret Guard Bureau to clean up the weird and evil spirits. Why do we need Jiuli to teach you to go to the village?"
Ye Chuyang touched the corner of his mouth and said, "...You are still giving me noodles like this. It's so easy to come back. It's rare for us to get together. How about having a drink together in the evening?"
"Drinking with loser." Yang Shining looked up.
Hearing this, Ye Chuyang's eyes flashed with excitement, as if some mechanism had been triggered, and at the same time he said in a loud voice: "Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. The three-year period has come. Don't be deceived by being poor!"
Yang Shining said "oh" in a satisfied tone.
After two seconds of silence, Ye Chuyang tensed up and said with a sad face:
"Is this how you treat a brother who has reunited after a long separation? When 놖 came back, he made a special trip to Star University to find you, but the place was completely sealed by a barrier. When 놖 slipped in, he was almost discovered by the Secret Guard Bureau."
After pondering for a while, Yang Shining sighed, "There was a turmoil in Yong'an City, so I had to return to religion early to avoid danger..."
Ye Chuyang's expression became serious and he said with interest: "It seems that you really know something, please tell me about it..."
At this moment, the elders shouted: "The leader is out."
Yang Shining and Ye Chuyang both stopped talking and looked up at the high platform.
Behind a string of deep bead curtains, a tall man's figure walked sideways and sat on the leader's high seat.
After sitting down, the bead curtain hung down to the man's knees, as if there was some kind of magic power, making the man's upper body very blurry. He could only roughly see the broad shoulders that seemed to be able to support the whole world, and feel the deep and heavy breath emanating from him. .
"Congratulations to the leader for coming out of seclusion!"
Everyone bowed and said in unison.
Yang Shining and Ye Chuyang glanced at each other casually, and saw the same surprise in each other's eyes:
The aura of the leader changed a lot, even a little strange.
"Everyone, see you in three years."
From the other side of the curtain, a deep and magnetic male voice came.
"My heart is very happy, not only because I got out of seclusion smoothly, but also because I saw that the number of people in the hall has decreased, and their cultivation has improved. It can be seen that during this period of seclusion, the development of Jiuli Sect has been making steady progress."
Although the words were compliments, the voice of the leader of Jiuli was neither happy nor sad, and was urgent and slow.
"Especially Qiangwei, thank you for your hard work in managing the entire teaching."
After saying that, a girl with a slim figure and a handsome face stood up and said to the leader: "This is Qiangwei's responsibility, and it is also thanks to the trust and cooperation of the leader, the elders, and the congregation."
During the period of seclusion, the leader of Jiuli had something to inform the outside world, including the news of his coming out of seclusion. It was Qiangwei who conveyed it.
"Chu Yang, Shi Ning, how is the progress of your practice?" Everyone faintly noticed that Jiuli's leader's eyes fell on the saint.
"Report to the leader."
Ye Chuyang took a step forward, his face full of reverence: "Now, 꿛떘놊 only has three 'half-demon', and he has successfully advanced one of the previous 'half-demon' into a 'true demon'."
Hearing this, Yang Shi Ning lowered her head slightly because she felt embarrassed...
She had just said that he was useless, but now the three-year period has come and his strength has really surpassed hers...
The Jiuli Sect Leader said "hmm" without commenting, and his eyes in the dark moved to Yang Shi Ning.
The latter stepped forward and said ashamedly: "Reporting to the Sect Leader, I am a talented person, not as good as a saint, and Jiuwei is only at the 'half-demon' level..."
"Three years have passed, and you still only have Jiuwei as a contracted monster?" Jiuli Sect Leader's voice was hidden with a trace of fluctuation, revealing a little dissatisfaction.
Yang Shi Ning said with a stiff face:
"... and... a spider in the 'real demon' realm..."
She can always say that she secretly went to Xingchuan University to enjoy her college life and didn't do her work...
The leader of Jiuli said "Oh" and continued: "I remember that before you went into seclusion, you only had one contracted demon, Jiuwei. So, the spider you mentioned was in the 'real demon' realm when you subdued it?"
The implication is that in three years, a 'half-demon' may be able to advance to a 'real demon'.
Yang Shi Ning's face still changed color, and she nodded seriously, "That's right, I convinced you with reasonable conditions."
Ye Chuyang's face beside him suddenly became a little weird...
It seems that the white weaving is Ning'er's contracted monster, but you must not let Ning'er know that you have initiated some illegal transactions with her contracted monster...
The leader of Jiuli nodded slightly, and did not ask Yang Shi Ning any more questions.
He turned and said to everyone in the hall in a deep voice:
"Maybe you are confused about your sudden exit this time and summoning your brother to return to the sect."
"Now, I will tell you the reason..."
"Not long ago, the sacred deer spirit told you that Jiuli Cave Heaven and Jiuli Sect will have a disaster, a disaster comparable to the "great pollution" a hundred years ago."
In an instant, the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"......"
After a few breaths, huge shock and astonishment exploded in everyone's heart. I don't know who was the first to make a sound of sucking in a breath of cold air, and then a frenzy of discussion was set off.
"Master, are you trying to scare us? The strength of the sect is changing with each passing day, and the Jiuli Cave Heaven is also thriving. How can there be any signs of a great catastrophe coming?" A fat middle-aged man with a receding hairline explained.
"As the saying goes, prosperity must decline, and extreme prosperity will not bring prosperity. The sect seems to be worry-free, but this is actually the time when we are prone to relax..." The one who said this was the pretty girl, Qiangwei, who was praised by the Jiuli Sect Master just now.
"Master, even if there is a catastrophe, can it be compared with the one a hundred years ago?" Ye Chuyang looked solemnly at the main seat on the high platform.
Everyone on the stage was shocked and puzzled, because the disaster that occurred in Jiuli Cave Heaven a hundred years ago was the reason why the previous Jiuli leader died!
For a long time after that, Jiuli Sect was in a state of being leaderless and precarious, until the current leader suppressed dissent with a tough attitude and the strength of the whole sect, which made Jiuli Sect return to a normal development track.
Yang Shi Ning's heart was pounding, and she couldn't help asking:
"Master, did Lu Ling tell me the source of the disaster?"
The figure behind the bead curtain raised a hand and leaned forward.
The hall was instantly quiet.
From the high seat of the master, a deep voice without a trace of ups and downs came out:
"The inside and the outside are the same source."
