Chapter 526 The black cat appears!
"Brother Xiaowu, why do you want to stay in the mountain? There is nothing fun in the mountain. Is it... a relationship issue?"
the old man asked doubtfully.
——This young man is well-dressed, has a gentle and polite manner, and is good at fighting with his bare hands. He probably does not come from an ordinary family.
So the only reason is "emotional issues".
"I am emotionally frustrated and want to live here for a while to seek the protection of Ningshen Division Master." Wu Xiaode said.
The old man was silent for a few breaths.
If those robbers come again... This young man has nothing to fear, but we...
no.
The security cameras will be installed tomorrow.
In addition——
"Little brother, if you don't mind, you can stay with us for a while. We have guest rooms."
The old man said.
"Of course that's good, thank you very much." Wu Xiaode smiled.
Sudden.
Just hearing a loud "bang", lines of small words in ice crystals suddenly appeared in his mind:
"You drove away the robbers."
"Justice has been upheld, and you also gain merit points: 1 point."
"It seems that something related to you has changed, please explore on your own."
Wu Xiaode was slightly startled.
I just came to this world and I don’t know anyone——
In this world where soul power is completely sealed, what has to do with me?
He thought for a while, stood up and said:
"I'm going out for a walk and I'll be back soon. Please help yourself."
"Okay, okay." The old man said repeatedly.
Wu Xiaode walked out of the temple gate and came all the way to the steps going down the mountain.
He took a tentative step.
No fog is created.
It seems that doing good things that are beneficial to the illusory world can make the will of the world loosen its restraint on itself!
Wu Xiaode felt happy and continued to walk down the mountain along the steps.
Soon.
When he reached the mountainside, he saw a pavilion and the words on the outside of several nearby houses:
"Drinks, snacks; boiling water for instant noodles."
It was too late and the doors were closed.
Wu Xiaode crossed the pavilion and continued walking down the mountain.
Mist suddenly appeared all around.
He lost his bearings and began to feel uncomfortable.
But this time, the skin on his body did not become wrinkled, nor did he feel like he was about to die.
In short——
Can't go any further.
Wu Xiaode took a step back, returned to the pavilion, and sighed.
1 point of merit is to enable yourself to reach this pavilion?
What’s the use of this!
As he was thinking, he suddenly saw a shadow appear on the pavilion.
Under the moonlight.
The shadow walked slowly over and squatted on the roof beam of the pavilion, overlooking Wu Xiaode.
——It is a cat with a completely black body and white eyes.
"The fact that you can gain merit... is something that makes me miss you a lot, so I came to see you."
The black cat speaks human words.
"Do you know my origin?" Wu Xiaode asked.
The black cat narrowed his eyes and said softly: "Cultivation of merit is something that only gods in the prehistoric era can do. In the past, if you cultivated three thousand virtues, you would have the qualifications to become an immortal. And you are on this mountain - ”
"Perhaps you are an immortal under the Queen Mother of the West?"
Wu Xiaode was startled, then he was overjoyed and said:
"Your Excellency is right. In fact, I am the head of Ningshen Division of Kunlun Mountain. I encountered a treacherous will of the world. It was supposed to be the one who came here, but it turned out that it used me as a substitute."
Black Cat nodded and said nothing.
——It recognized this!
Wu Xiaode said: "Since you also know that you made a mistake, can you let me go back? I don't want to stay in this world for a second longer."
The black cat shook his head and said: "Any existence that comes here can only live its life as an ordinary person. You should give up the idea."
"Is there no way at all?" Wu Xiaode asked.
The black cat's eyes narrowed again, and he shook his head and said: "It is not easy to survive in this world. I advise you - Huh?"
It stared at the two weapons on Wu Xiaode's waist and remained silent for a while.
"What's wrong?"
Wu Xiaode didn't know why.
"Do you use a knife or a sword?" the black cat asked, wagging its tail.
"A little bit of both." Wu Xiaode said.
"So...do you have any masters in swordsmanship?" Black Cat asked again.
"I didn't have a teacher, I was only taught one move." Wu Xiaode answered truthfully.
"Logically speaking, I shouldn't ask about your abilities, but can you reveal a little bit about your swordsmanship?" Black Cat asked calmly.
Wu Xiaode hesitated.
——Is this a relationship?
The sword technique of "Walking Alone in the Snow" was passed down to later generations by Li Chengfeng, the Sword Saint of All Worlds, in order to wait for a person to return to his time to fight against the robbery demon.
So what about the secret sword "Changyue Shuying"?
Could it be——
Wu Xiaode did not move his sword and just said: "I recall drinking on the Wu Bridge in the past. Most of the heroes sitting in the middle were heroes——"
Before he finished speaking, the black cat's wagging tail stopped moving, and then the fur all over its body exploded.
"It's you."
Black Cat said in a deep tone.
"Me?" Wu Xiaode was confused.
"I'm going to make some preparations, quickly or slowly. I'll be ready in a day or two, and then I'll come back to you." After the black cat finished speaking, he rose into the sky and disappeared under the moonlight.
Only Wu Xiaode stayed where he was.
He stood alone for a while and shouted to the sky:
"Hey, didn't you say that you can't use soul power in this world?"
No response.
Wu Xiaode looked back at the road leading down the mountain.
The rugged mountain road was obscured by fog and completely impassable.
well.
never mind.
Let's go back to the mountain first, rest for the night, and wait for the cat to come back.
Maybe it really has something to do with this sword technique.
……
the next day.
The sun is just right.
The old man in charge of the temple sent people down the mountain early in the morning to buy monitoring equipment.
Others are also busy, cleaning the yard, doing morning homework, or going to the back hill to chop firewood.
Wu Xiaode was fine.
He drank a bowl of porridge, moved a chair, and leaned against the wall to bask in the sun.
Of course no one cares about him.
But it gets a little boring after sitting for a long time.
"Old man Zhao, what are the origins of the gods in your temple?"
He ran to ask the old man.
The old man happened to pick up a big customer who wanted to burn incense. He had no time to pay attention to him and just handed over a book.
"There are no entertainment activities on the mountain. There are only traditional classics like this. You can read them to pass the time."
said the old man.
Wu Xiaode held the book, returned to the wall, and sat down on the chair.
He reads very quickly.
I almost finished reading a book of hundreds of thousands of words in an hour.
After reading the entire book, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
This book...
It's called Journey to the West.
I remember the first time I entered the world in Kunlun Mountains, the peach tree said something to me.
"In the past, the heaven and earth wanted to teach and transform all living beings. They refined the essence of the sun and the moon to create a life. They visited immortals to find the way. Finally, it came true. So they sent it to the Kunlun Mountain Peach Garden and ate all the immortal peaches that extended life before letting it go. It went through countless hardships along the way. After all the hard work, we finally succeeded.”
"That was last century."
So the monkey eating the peach is the Monkey King?
In the vermilion temple on Kunlun Mountain in the other world, there were originally five big characters on the door in the middle. Couldn't it be "Qitian Monkey King's Mansion"?
So...
Are there any records about Chief Ningshen?
Upon thinking of this, Wu Xiaode stopped basking in the sun and got up to go find the old man again.
"Are you looking for relevant records about Chief Ningshen?"
The old man was a little surprised.
He had just seen off a pilgrim and was now standing in the main hall, replacing a new lock on the merit box.
"Yes, isn't his statue destroyed? I want to see how this god got away with it." Wu Xiaode said.
"It is said that this god is responsible for marriage, because he has many dependents - of course this is just a legend, and the relevant records are not available and have been lost." The old man said.
"Where is the Queen Mother of the West?" Wu Xiaode refused to give up.
"I only know that he is the most noble God Lord, in charge of the gods. There is no specific record." The old man said.
At this time, another familiar pilgrim came to offer incense and money, and the old man hurriedly exchanged greetings with a smile on his face.
Wu Xiaode lost consciousness for a while and turned to look at the statue of Queen Mother of the West.
Wait——
What is that?
Wu Xiaode stepped forward and looked at the stone plaque below the statue of Queen Mother of the West.
I saw the stone sign saying:
"The Queen Mother of the West, the Great Heavenly Lord, the Lord of the world in the Kunlun Mountains, had no one to protect her when she was reincarnated, and she died."
No one to protect you?
How could it be!
He is obviously protecting her!
——No, I am already trapped in this illusory world.
But there is Shen Xiujun beside Shen Feixue!
With her strength, couldn't she have protected the Queen Mother of the West from reincarnation?
Wu Xiaode thought about lightning and walked quickly to his own statue.
Of course there is no more statue of him.
But next to his statue, there is a statue of a woman, and the stone plaque below clearly reads:
"The chief relative of Ningshen Division, the fairy Shen Xiujun."
"He is a born saint, but unfortunately there is a parasitic demon from outside the realm in his body. He has been suppressed with the help of Chief Ning Shen, so he is fine."
"The head of Ning Shen lost his trace in a catastrophe, and the fairy was heartbroken. In the end, she was taken advantage of by the demon, and she died."
Wu Xiaode stared at the stone plate over and over again, and a murderous intention burst out in his heart.
Damn it.
Is what is written here about to happen?
...No, to be precise, time has died, so the time in all heavens and worlds is parallel.
Once you can’t go back——
"The disappearance of Chief Ningshen" will immediately cause a chain reaction in all the worlds!
But there is still a chance!
Because time is dead, as long as you can go back, everything will be restored to the way it was before!
Go back...
By the way, merit!
Merit can attract black cats.
And since he can obtain merit, it means that the world still recognizes gods.
If you cultivate three thousand merits - maybe you have a chance!
