The next morning.
Jiang Wang was basking in the sun in the Hou Mansion.
Although the sunshine is weak and the breeze is cool, it is very comfortable.
Akong climbed up the eaves, dangling his feet, with a chicken in his left hand and a duck in his right hand. He didn't carry the fat baby on his back, but there was a big spider tied by a string, lying on the tiles, sleeping soundly.
Jiang Wang raised his eyes and took a look. Although he had already asked, he was still surprised. It was just a matter of tying the spider with a rope. The key was the monster Zhuan Yong, which was completely off the mark.
"Mr. Jiang!"
Chai Bi showed his head outside the wall.
Jiang Wang wondered: "What are you doing there?"
Chai Bi said awkwardly: "I knocked on the door..."
Obviously, Jiang Wang was selectively deaf again.
But Uncle Tong and Xiaoyu could hear the sound even if they were in the backyard. Why didn't they open the door?
However, the monk in green robe wanted to forge a more suitable sword, so he was accompanied by the monk in white robe.
Jiang Wang waved to Chai Bi, who climbed over the wall and entered after receiving permission.
The Hou Mansion really doesn’t need a gate at all, right?
"What's the matter?" Jiang Wang asked calmly.
Chai Bi greeted him respectfully and said, "Although some people evacuated Huncheng due to the incident in the East Market, more people still stayed and continued to search for immortal traces. But just now, someone discovered a stone statue on Qixia Street. He was buried in the ruins and many people who were investigating died as a result. I immediately thought of Mr. Jiang and came here to ask for help."
"Stone statue?" Jiang Wang frowned and said, "What's so strange about it?"
Chai Bi said: "That is a tiger statue, and it is not at all vicious. Instead, it gives people a very kind feeling. This should be considered the weirdest thing. How can a tiger have such an appearance?"
"But when he was five feet away from the stone statue, he suddenly became crazy, yelled, and then twitched and fell to the ground, losing all breath. It was really weird!"
Chai Bi couldn't help but shudder as he recalled that scene again.
Jiang Wang asked the Night Traveler in his heart, "Have you ever known what this is?"
Ye Youshen's voice was a little solemn, even a little trembling, "It's impossible, how could this thing appear here?"
Jiang Wang asked again: "What exactly is it?"
Night Travel God said: "You have seen similar ones."
Jiang Wang was at a loss, and just as he was about to ask again, his consciousness was suddenly dragged into the Kingdom of God, and what appeared in front of him was the statue of the Night God.
He quickly reacted and said in surprise: "The same god as you?!"
Yeyou Shen nodded and said: "The gods are affiliated with the true immortals. To put it more vulgarly, they are the gatekeepers of the immortal kingdom. The status of the idols is a gift from the immortals. If the immortal dies, the status of the attached gods will be closed, and the Taoism will be the best. Even if it is light, most of it will be broken."
"Because I settled in your divine kingdom, my fruition status was reborn. If that tiger statue is also a fruition status, it must be an affiliated deity of another fallen immortal. Because I did not serve the new master, his status was left here. "
Jiang Wang frowned and said, "It seems like it should be very common. Why do you think it shouldn't appear here?"
The Night Travel God said: "If we are both gods and are nearby, I should feel it."
"The fruit position is the foundation of a god. If it is damaged, even if a new owner is found, the god will no longer be the same person even if it is reborn."
"No one wants to disappear completely in this world. My fruition status is hidden in the golden elixir. How could a god throw the fruition status everywhere?"
Ye Youshen looked solemn, and he thought of something terrible.
Jiang Wang guessed: "All the immortals fell six hundred years ago. Maybe some gods completely turned into monsters?"
Yeyoushen said: "Even if you abandon your identity as a god, your fruition status is not useless. If monsters or monks plunder your fruition status, your Taoism will increase several times, and the gods will also suffer backlash. In any case, there is no reason to destroy them." throw away."
Jiang Wang was surprised: "The third possibility of monsters attacking the city just appeared?"
Ye Youshen said in a deep voice: "We have to go and take a look."
Jiang Wang said: "Isn't it necessary?"
Ye Youshen said coldly: "I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach."
Jiang Wang said angrily: "Then just hold it in!"
...
The ruins of Qixia Street where he once fought with Xie Wuxing.
Immortal seekers gathered.
They huddled together in twos and threes, hostile to each other, and full of nervousness.
"Mr. Jiang is here!"
Chai Bi's voice sounded from far away to near.
The immortal seekers turned back one after another and asked in confusion: "Where is Mr. Jiang and his wife?"
Chai Bizhan said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang is walking a little slower, he will be there soon."
They waited patiently.
About half an hour after burning the incense, Jiang Wangcai arrived.
"Mr. Jiang."
Immortal seekers do not dare to show any slightest indifference and are respectful and courteous.
Jiang Wang hummed slightly and asked, "Where is the stone statue?"
Chai Bi pointed to a certain ruins and said, "It's right there."
Several people were lying next to them, already lifeless.
Their eyes were wide open, blue veins popped out on their faces, and their skin was purple, as if they were suffocated by great fright.
But these are all monks in the cave realm.
"Mr. Jiang, this thing is quite weird, please don't get close to it."
A kind reminder from those seeking immortality.
Jiang Wang seemed not to have heard anything. Under the ruins, half of the stone statue was exposed. The tiger's face was clearly visible. According to calculations, it was about the size of a palm.
"How?" he asked in his mind.
"It is indeed the fruition of gods."
Ye Youshen observed with the help of Jiang Wang's eyes and said: "But this statue contains a very strong evil spirit, or it may be the evil spirit accumulated over the years."
"If the fruition status is intact, it proves that the god is alive. But the strange thing is that even if we are thousands of miles apart, as long as the fruition status is here, I can feel his breath. In fact, I can't see anything. It’s like he has fallen.”
Jiang Wang vaguely thought of something, but he didn't catch it in time, "Since this statue has a strong evil spirit, there must be a big problem. Maybe the god has really completely turned into a monster. It is very dangerous to leave it here, so why not Destroy it."
Yeyoushen said: "Plundering the god's fruition status can increase your Taoism, don't you have any idea?"
Jiang Wang said: "My body is already very weak. If I am contaminated with something full of evil spirits, I am afraid I will lose my life. Compared with life, Taoism is nothing. A person with such extraordinary talents like me is of no use." Seeking dark means.”
Ye Youshen said: "Although these words are very reasonable, there is something I really don't know how to say."
"Then hold it in." Jiang Wang looked at Chai Bi and the immortal seekers and said, "This thing is very evil and it will be useless to keep it. You should move away."
The immortal seekers who realized what Mr. Jiang was going to do were quite frightened. After all, there was a lesson learned from the past lying on the ground. However, considering Mr. Jiang's power, they just said "be careful" and retreated one after another.
Jiang Wang stared at the stone statue, unsheathed his sword, and hot air surged out instantly, as if the scorching sun was falling directly to the earth. The immortal seekers were sweating like rain, and then they saw Jiang Wang slashing at the stone statue with his sword. fall.
Bang!
The ruins of the broken walls were immediately cleared away and turned into powder.
But the stone statue remained as usual, without any damage.
Immortal seekers: (`゚Д゚´)ゞ
Jiang Wang: ( ̄ω ̄;)
so awkward.
This is different from the picture I imagined.
"Mr. Jiang?"
Chai Bi was careful.
Jiang Wang coughed lightly and said, "There is something about this thing."
Although Jiang Wang failed to destroy the stone statue, he was not affected even though he was three feet away. It was already extremely powerful. The immortal seekers were only shocked that even Mr. Jiang could not do anything about the stone statue. This thing was probably extraordinary!
"Fortunately, no common people will come here, so it should be fine for the time being. I will come back to figure out a solution before I go back."
Jiang Wang left directly.
Chai Bi wanted to speak but stopped.
There are still a few lying there, you can't just leave them here, right?
But he didn't dare ask Mr. Jiang to help carry it out.
"Let's inform the town government office first. Normally, there may be no people here, but what if people have a sudden idea and come here to hang out? Then they will cause trouble. Let the town house government seal off this place, so that everything is safe. .”
"What Brother Chai said is absolutely true."
Because Chai Bi and Jiang Wang were closer, a seeker took the opportunity to compliment him, and then said: "There is a mirage hanging high in Qixia Street, the monster Zhu Yong appears inexplicably, and there is a big monster attacking the city, and there is also a mirage in the East Market." Yaoxian, there are strange stone statues popping up on Qixia Street, are these things related?"
The expressions of the immortal seekers were solemn, which was indeed very suspicious.
They came here to look for immortals, but they didn't see any immortals, but they frequently encountered monsters. In fact, they no longer had much hope for immortals, and even suspected that this stone statue might be related to the appearance of a 'mirage'.
It is recorded in ancient books that immortals will have visions when they come to the world, but at the same time, there are also other things that may give birth to visions. They came to Huncheng because they speculated that immortals would come to the world, and no one could be sure. They felt that they might have found the truth. .
...
Jiang Wang returned to the Hou Mansion.
The old housekeeper and Xiaoyu also came back.
"When did you leave the house?"
The old housekeeper smiled and said: "I went out early in the morning. I saw that the young master was still asleep, so I didn't disturb him."
Xiaoyu said: "Senior Luo wanted to go back to the Martial God Temple and wanted to talk to me again. Uncle Tong was worried that he would take the opportunity to kidnap me, so he went to Banri Xian Inn with me, but Senior Luo didn't mention it until he left the city. This matter."
The old housekeeper said in confusion: "This is indeed a very strange thing."
Jiang Wang thought that Luo Xianshan should feel relieved because he was 'understanding', but if he wanted to talk to Xiaoyu, he could just come to the Hou Mansion before leaving. Why let Xiaoyu go?
"Venerable Luo left in a hurry?"
The old housekeeper said: "It was really urgent. He sent someone to inform him at dawn. By the time we passed by, he had already packed up and was ready to leave."
Jiang Wang thought: "The original purpose of Venerable Luo coming to Huncheng was also because of the vision of the immortal coming to the world. Could it be that something happened in the Martial God Temple or Ku Tan Lane?"
According to Xie Wuxing, the situation of the great demons in the Sui Dynasty was basically stable, unless something happened again.
But thinking that this kind of thing had nothing to do with him, he said goodbye to Uncle Tong and Xiaoyu and returned to the small courtyard.
Lying on the wicker chair, Jiang Wang's consciousness came to the Kingdom of God.
"The power I can exert on Qixia Street is far better than when I fought Wuhou in front of the city, but I couldn't hurt the stone statue at all. If the status of the gods is so strong, why do you bother to protect it?"
The Night Traveler God lying on the grass glanced at him sideways, "Those who can covet the status of gods have unfathomable cultivation. You don't really think you are already strong, do you?"
