Chapter 506 The prosperity of martial arts is coming
Pumice stone!
The pumice stone I encountered in the endless abyss when I came out of the sea of suffering was exactly the same material, with the same texture and stone carvings, but it was only medium-sized, just enough for a person to lie down on it.
This kind of pumice stone gave him the feeling of... a coffin, a coffin that had been used to fake death and live for eternity.
It’s just that it appears here now, and there is no one in it.
Now there are four or five middle-aged men sitting cross-legged in the small courtyard playing Hu cards. Hu cards are a kind of playing cards carved from animal bones. They are a folk game and were played by old people in the Western Qin Dynasty. The origin is unknown. It is said that this game was invented. The years of playing cards can be pushed up endlessly.
Pumice stone was sat down by these men, it didn’t matter.
Xin Zhuo subconsciously entered the yard and looked at the cards. He couldn't understand and just looked at them blindly. The people here seemed to be very friendly to "Axu's family" and were willing to say hello to him. He was talking to a big man. After pulling at the pumice for a while, the bearded man pointed at the pumice stone and asked, "This stone is quite interesting. The pattern is very beautiful!"
"Isn't this a coffin?" A group of people looked at him in surprise.
Xin Zhuo: "?"
Okay, let’s just say it.
The bearded man said: "This is called the Ninth World Coffin. It is divided into nine grades. Each grade has a price. It is only made once every many years. If someone orders it, we will sell it. In the future, if someone orders it, I will teach you!"
"Yeah, okay." Xin Zhuo nodded numbly.
Were those pumice stones made by people here?
After watching for a while, he walked out of the yard pretending to be casual, and then went to the next yard. As expected, there were some strange innate spiritual creatures in each yard.
Moreover, he found that the people in the village were not engaged in production, but in playing. At best, they raised some small animals or poultry, and they didn't seem to eat much.
After walking around in a big circle, I unknowingly arrived in front of a strange building. The bricks and tiles were dark brown, and the overall shape was an unequal oval, like a... shit.
He took a few steps back and looked again, and it felt like a ball of fire again.
This place is directly south of the village. If you look at it according to the Bagua diagram, it is located in the Li hexagram of the central axis. The thirty-third hexagram of the sixty-four innate hexagrams is the sign of Li fire!
The door of the building was closed but not locked. Xin Zhuo thought for a while, walked to the door, opened the door, and felt a rotten smell.
Opposite is a statue of a god. It is not clear which god it is from this world. It is dressed in Taoist robes and has a solemn expression.
There is a couplet on both sides of the statue:
"The supreme being will become a withered bone after ten thousand years!"
"Practice for hundreds of lives, but turning around will be in vain!"
< br>These sixteen words don’t have much meaning, but if you look at them carefully, you can’t help but give people a sense of loneliness and frustration, seeing everything in the world and everything is empty.
Xin Zhuo felt his scalp numb inexplicably. He looked down along the statue and saw a bunch of tablets. Looking carefully at the names of the tablets, he felt a chill from the soles of his feet to the sky.
There are a bunch of Jiang families, mixed with Zhang families and Lu families, one of them is "Lu Yu'er's position!"
Lu Yu'er is the girl in red in front.
She is dead?
“Ahem…”
At this time, a coughing sound suddenly came from behind.
Xin Zhuo turned around and saw a gray-haired old man with age spots on his face. He couldn't tell how old he was. A pair of muddy old eyes stared at him: "Come here from the Axu family. What is this longevity temple going to do?” Don’t be surprised when you’re here!”
The old man nodded, hunched over and walked to the tablet, gently wiped the tablet, and said in a vicissitudes of voice: “People are bound to die, so put the tablet in advance to save trouble in the future. !”
Xin Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief: “That makes sense!”
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Do you all know Jiang Taixu?"
Given his age, this old man would not talk nonsense.
“I forgot, I think we know each other.” The old man said without turning his head.
Xin Zhuo was silent for a while and walked out of the longevity temple.
The snow has melted and the air is a bit cold.
This village was very different from the one he had imagined when he came here, which was serene, peaceful, and simple. It was more like a place that was full of weirdness and lifeless.
"Then who..."
Jiang Dagou came from a distance with blue eyes and staggering steps. He looked pitiful and asked, "Did you see Lu Yu'er again today?"
Xin Zhuo nodded.
Jiang Dagou asked: "Did you talk to her?"
Xin Zhuo still nodded.
Jiang Dagou said mysteriously: "You are finished, Lu Yu'er will peek at you every day!"
"I seem to have nothing to lose, just watch her if she wants to!" Xin Zhuo said. Jiang Dagou's eyes widened: "Zhang Fathu doesn't want to!"
"Who is Zhang Fathu?" Xin Zhuo was surprised.
"Me!"
There was an angry roar from behind. It was a fat man, two heads taller than Xin Zhuo and Jiang Dagou. He arrived first before he reached the big belly. He looked down at Jiang Dagou: "Yes, I Not willing!"
Jiang Dagou was startled and pointed at Xin Zhuo: " Lu Yuer is looking at him, not me. What do you think I’m doing?” Let me vent your anger.”
“You are right!”
Jiang Dagou lay down freely and hugged his head.
The fat man’s fist as big as a sandbag was like a violent storm.
Xin Zhuo rubbed his eyebrows, no one seemed normal here.
It wasn't until the two of them finished that they took out two cups from their arms, filled them with water from Wangyue Well, and said frankly: "I'll treat you two to a drink of water, the sweet water brought from outside! ”
“You...”
Unexpectedly, the two of them roared angrily as if they had seen a ghost: "People in Changshou Village don't drink water, are you crazy?"
Sayazi ran away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
People in Changshou Village don’t drink water?
Xin Zhuo stayed where he was.
……
Seventeen days.
Life in Changshou Village was extremely boring. Xin Zhuo felt as if seventeen days had passed.
However, these days, with his social skills outside, he has become very familiar with the villagers very easily. He can clearly understand the number of people in each household and their temperament.
After inquiring, every household has some weird innate spiritual objects with different shapes and cannot tell what they do. Give him one... These things are very useful, but you can't find them. Get the feel for the trick.
It is a pity that the people in the village do not drink water, absolutely do not drink water, and they only eat dry grains. It seems that drinking even a little water will kill them, which makes his The plan to sacrifice the souls could never be implemented. He couldn't tell whether these people were masters in disguise or neurotic fantasy people.
After walking out of the room, the yard was clean and spotless. Nuying and Jiang Zichong were playing games. When Xin Zhuo came out, she obediently called "Uncle/Uncle" and continued playing.
In the main room, Ji Jiuwei, the old lady, with Xiong Zhao, Yam and Bai Xuanji, was still staring at the Shennong Ding, "thinking about the past" while facing the wall, and seemed to have seen some clues.
Hei Aunt, Bai Aunt and Chanyi couldn't stay idle. They quietly left the village a few days ago, saying they were doing some shopping to get information. However, they never came back for more than ten days.
On the contrary, the old lady and Li Yun took care of the housework every day, which was very hard.
Xin Zhuo held a pile of carved stone tablets in his arms and walked to the corner of the yard. These stone tablets were the formation stakes of the Little Seven Stars Killing Formation. He had been studying them for many days, using the Shennong Xiantian Cauldron as the Formation eyes, set up formations around the courtyard.
Go to the direction of stem position A7 and insert the stone tablet into the pre-drilled hole in the ground.
Then walk out of the door.
The girl in red across the street, Lu Yu'er, secretly watched him from behind a big tree. This "peeping" had lasted for seventeen days.
Further away, Zhang Panghu was peeking at Lu Yuer, which lasted for seventeen days.
Xin Zhuo smiled at the two of them and looked at the formation in the entire yard. He felt dazed when he saw it, because the formation worked, but its effect was very small, but the appearance of the formation in the village Countless ripples visible to the naked eye of him, the "Array Master", are like the word "forbidden" one by one, just like the forbidden word when Zhe Feiyan forcibly opened the Five Elements True Qi.
Is this... an ancient prohibition?
The longevity village itself is a large formation?
While I was stunned, the ground suddenly made a noise, a buzzing sound, and a rapid tremor, like a village, no! The whole world was shaking.
His expression couldn't help but change, and he subconsciously observed his surroundings.
I heard Lu Yuer and Zhang Panghu exclaim: "Here we come! Ten thousand or one hundred thousand times stronger than before!"
He disappeared in an instant.
The ground continued to shake, as if the sky was falling apart, and in the blue sky, the sunlight disappeared, and a blood-red color appeared, just like the sky trapped in a sea of suffering.
The light was dim, and it was hard not to feel a sense of uneasiness.
Jiang Zichong, who was playing in the yard, cried in fright and was hugged tightly by Jiang Nuying.
My wife, Ji Jiuwei, and Xiong Zhao’s group of people ran out, their faces turning pale.
The prosperous age of martial arts is coming!
It’s such a strange and inexplicable arrival!
