There is a stone tablet erected on the Qianchen Road outside Baili Mountain. The shape of this stele is like flowing water, with twists and turns. The body is green, with smaller words on both sides of the front and back. Some are shaped like ancient seal characters; others are shaped like numbers and symbols. The top of the stele is covered with some moss, but the front and back of the stele are clearly visible. The flowing fonts are densely arranged on both sides of the stele. The bright blood-like font makes this monument even more mysterious and precious, and the mountain has become famous because of the existence of this monument.
As for the various origins of this monument, the world is based on legends, and no one has actually investigated the true origin of this monument. The emergence of this monument is just a distant legend - Pangu opened the sky and split the earth.
Legend has it that in ancient times, after Pangu opened the sky and split the earth with an axe, everything in front of him was awe-inspiring. The heaven and earth are prosperous, the wind and water flow year after year, and all things are prosperous. Pangu was delighted by this, and the crystallization of tears and water was born. The two merged into one, absorbing the righteousness of heaven and earth, and formed a stone tablet with an irregular shape like flowing water. It penetrated deeply into the soil and reflected everything in the world. The life and death of all things and the vicissitudes of life over millions of years. For this reason, Pangu engraved everything on this monument to ensure peace in the world, and named this monument Taibao.
And this legend is not limited to this. There are even rumors that this stele contains spiritual energy, and the characters on this stele are the best proof. There are even rumors that the characters on this stele are the description of the treasure location. Who can tell If you get it, you can enjoy glory and wealth forever. Not only that, but some people use it as a martial arts secret book to practice, but unfortunately people have died while practicing it. Various rumors spread among the various martial arts sects and paths in the green forest at the speed of one to ten and ten to one hundred. It attracted many people from all walks of life to come to seize this rare treasure.
Some people used an ax to chisel the monument, but it had no effect on the monument; they printed the characters on blood cloth, but they didn't expect it to be in vain; they tried to poke out its roots, but they dug three feet into the ground and couldn't find the foundation; there are still people...
No one can doubt the various strange visions of the Taibao. The increasing mystery of Taibao attracts people from all walks of life, and all walks of life are fighting for it. A bloody massacre took place on the Qianchen Road, and this once-famous mountain was also tainted by these people and lost its vitality. And during the killings, the only one who survived was the Taibao. Taibao's survival finally froze people's evil hearts towards him, and the horror brought about by him was deeply engraved in people's hearts. To avoid the massacres in the past, people once again named him a monument of life and death.
Folks also circulate a nursery rhyme for the monument of life and death:
endless life,
Old age persists;
empty wind valley,
nameless deception;
Life and death are empty and nightless, sighing.
Diechengang,
Xiaogui Lang;
Don't get separated,
seize the bag;
Don't lose your heart if you die.
The Qianchen Road became desolate again due to people's vigilance. The road had long been covered with weeds, and the monument of life and death was lost in the weeds.
And this mountain gradually faded away in people's minds, until people completely forgot everything that happened here. The mountains have returned to their original state again, and a silence that has never existed before gradually appears.
However, all this seems to be just an illusion. The reason why this place is fake is because the silence is too terrifying.
In the howling wind, there was no trace of the breath of life. There were only a few chilling crow calls. The crows whirling around the entire valley couldn't help but make people shiver all over, and the surrounding area instantly became colder.
"Thump~!"
"Gah~!"
"Gah~!"
Things seemed to get even worse. Even the few crows could not save their lives and left this inhumane world with a few screams. In the air where the whine gradually faded away, there were only a few feathers soaked in blood, the feathers of the remaining crows, floating slowly in the air.
It seems that this valley cannot tolerate the existence of a species with the breath of life.
"quack……!"
No, absolutely not. What just happened was just an episode. This valley is not as heartless as before, because in the distant woods, there is still the smell of life. And everything just now was done by a woman.
crimson neon,
The moon is hard to see at night,
Embrace the cool breeze and soft catkins,
The delicate self-melting,
Walking quietly in the sky,
Unparalleled beauty.
Mu Yu Ling Feng,
Fox-browed Tao Qian,
Thousands of threads must fall,
It's joyful,
I am so happy that there is a long wind between my lips,
All the flowers are empty.
The dark red eye shadow adds a bit of foxiness, and the thin lips of Ruying evoke a soft smile. Niao Tingting, wearing a red dress lying on the ground, she bent her waist and walked for several steps, showing her bright wrists in light red gauze. Her black hair is lightly raised with butterfly tassels.
The few strands of dark green hair on her forehead floated endlessly in the wind on her cheeks, creating a soft complexion. There was still a trace of blood on the corner of the mouth, but it was licked back by the tip of her tongue for a moment.
The slender hand passed through the air, seeming to be painting a meaningful and profound picture. Actually, she didn't, she just grabbed a feather floating in the air.
While playing with it, gently slide the feather across the tip of the nose, as if savoring the taste of the feather.
"Reality is reality after all, illusion is illusion after all. Reality and illusion are always two different boundaries. Today I want to see if you can really coexist reality and illusion, as miraculous as the legend." As he spoke, , the corners of her mouth raised slightly, as if everything was under her control.
The bridges on both sides of the river seemed to have some dry railings and were covered with some moss. Even the deadly wind felt pity for the withered bridge and did not dare to blow it down into the deep valley easily. The only breath of life is just lingering in the world, hanging in the sky, ready to be transported to the other side of the bridge at the end of life. His old body that could not withstand the wind and rain was still supported in front of this visitor, as if he was transporting this distinguished guest from afar to the other side before he was willing to leave peacefully.
However, the cold and stern woman in front of him did not feel pity for him, nor did she fear the dry bridge due to outside influences. She just glanced at him coldly, then raised her slightly raised steps and walked forward.
Strangely, the withered bridge did not break due to the woman's presence. It was only when the woman reached the other side that the withered bridge made a final trembling sound and fell deeply into the valley bottom.
At this moment, this unfathomable forest full of dangers was a different scene. Messy branches and vines are staggered overhead, with some vine branches hanging down from the gaps, creating a unique landscape.
Thick branches stretched across the woods, interspersed with white mist, and no one knew which tree crown it came from.
The ground was overgrown with weeds, and it was impossible to tell where to stay. Only when the wind blows by can we determine where to stand. However, it is a pity that there are few signs of wind here, and even if there is, it is temporarily buried by the white mist that moves with the wind.
This is a terrifying Hell of Hell with corpses everywhere, and chilling skulls scattered everywhere on the ground. The countless vines are almost woven into an airtight wall. However, this is not a wall, but an aging wooden coffin. There is a copper bell on each corner of the top cover. There is a faint sound in the wind of Xuxu.
There are few signs of grass around here, because the place where the wooden house is located is a swamp. There were also several submerged dead bones in the swamp, but these dead bones were difficult to detect for a while. Perhaps it was the grass that hid these dark sides. And this adult coffin was also wrapped in intersecting vines, as if it was deliberately covering up something.
"Wow~!"
"Boom~!"
…
The situation seems a little unusual, these swamps are bubbling for no reason. Not only that, the swamp also seems to contain immeasurable temperature. The rising mist surrounded the air like a giant white python, lingering.
"Dang~!"
"Dang~!"
…
The copper bell suddenly swayed at this moment, as if predicting the impending arrival of a distinguished guest. The branches were waving, and a woman was heard casually chanting:
I only heard that at dusk, who was missing the carving?
Fallen leaves always make people feel cold.
The rich family is still red and beautiful,
Don't ask others if the streets are paralyzed.
The person who came was a woman, the cold-browed and delicate woman in red from just now. Like a maple leaf, falling gracefully on a tree crown.
"I haven't seen you for many years, it's time for you to show up." The woman stared closely at the coffin wrapped in vines in front of her, with a puzzling look on her face.
The woman's words did not elicit an answer from the mysterious man, and the wooden coffin she was staring at did not show any signs of being strange.
This unexpected and momentary atmosphere of loss made the woman feel indifferent. The corner of her mouth slightly raised, and a wisp of red silk stretched straight from the sky towards the wooden coffin wrapped in vines.
"Whoosh~!"
"Whoosh~!"
"Gudong~!"
That's quick to say. In an instant, the vine-like human hand shrank away in all directions and disappeared from the woman's sight, leaving only a black wooden coffin in front of her. The rough and rotten wooden coffin had a crack due to the carvings of the years. Only the copper bells hanging from the four corners still maintain the perfect and indelible sound of nature despite the erosion of wind and rain.
The fog, inadvertently, escaped from the gap in the coffin lid. Gradually, gradually, the entire coffin was wrapped in white mist and disappeared into this strange and mysterious white mist.
The woman seemed to sense something was wrong. When the white mist dissipated, the black coffin had disappeared without a trace. Just like that, in a moment, he disappeared in front of the woman in red.
"Hmph! Pretending to be mysterious!" The woman glanced around coldly and said disdainfully: "The Lord has an order! I order you to find the pearl at all costs! Bao Ze..." Before the woman could finish her words, a figure appeared. Appear behind her.
"How's Baoze?" She saw the man turning around slightly, and a mask with a ghostly face went straight to her face, scaring her so much that she almost fell from the tree.
"I think you should understand what the consequences will be." The woman smiled, swept the dead bones on the ground, and said pitifully to the man in the mask with a grimace in front of her: "But when the time comes, don't die like these people. Too pitiful. If that's the case, it will be a loss of the Lord's careful cultivation of you back then!"
The man in the grimace mask didn't pay attention to the woman's words. He just turned around slightly and stared motionlessly at the jungle covered by fog in the distance. After a long time, he said: "Where is Mingzhu now?"
"The leader of the Qingfeng Altar of the Mingyue Sect is the hand of Zhao Yueheng, the most famous swordsman in the world." The woman smiled lightly and said: "Who is this Zhao Yueheng! You must also know this person. You should understand, so you don’t need to make me talk any more, right?”
"What are your intentions?" The man in the grimace mask paused for a while and said in a very low tone.
"What? Are you suspecting that I'm pretending to give orders?"
"Why should I, the Lord God, take action against a mere Zhao Yueheng? You four evil spirits have been wreaking havoc in the world for many years. Are you so vulnerable to a Zhao Yueheng?"
"I have no idea what our four evil spirits are like. I am just following the order of the Lord to convey orders to you. If you intend to disobey, the Lord will not show any mercy to you, a beloved disciple who has suffered for many years." The woman looked at the tall figure in front of her with confidence and emphasized in a solemn tone: "This Lord can order you to defeat Zhao Yueheng and seize the pearl in his hand. It shows that the Lord loves you very much! Lord! I am so eager to get you out of the mountain. Firstly, I want to see if you have really studied martial arts hard over the years. Secondly, this Zhao Yueheng is not an easy character to deal with. He has been famous in the world for so many years, which shows that he He is by no means an idle person, and this person must not be underestimated! Especially his superb sword!"
"Why do you describe an ordinary man as so brave? Isn't this to enhance other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige? As a member of the demon sect, only demons are invincible. When you praise others like this, where do you put yourself? Earth! Where do you place a demon gate? I am really ashamed of what you just said!" The man in the ghost mask said with a hint of sadness.
"The Lord God said this, could it be that Zhao Yueheng is not in the eyes of the Lord God? Then what is it that allows the Lord God to have such a high opinion?"
"Ming...zhu..." The man in the ghost mask said meaningfully, seeming to be appraising something.
"I heard what Jianghu said, whoever gets the Pearl will win the world. This sentence is enough to prove that this Pearl is the esteemed one among all things. If the Lord hadn't been clever enough to place Zhang Hui in the Mingyue Sect, we would have no way of knowing where the Pearl is now. The Lord has tried every means to get this pearl, which shows the importance of this thing. You and I cannot be lazy!" The woman seemed to know something and said: "Could it be that the Lord God is interested in this pearl..."
The man in the grimace mask turned slightly, and the woman stopped immediately, as if she was afraid that this cold-faced guest would be unfavorable to her because of what she said at the moment. Then he smiled, changed his tone, and said: "The Lord God is so witty, even if he is ten Zhao Yueheng, he won't be afraid! It will be easy to get this pearl."
"Stop pretending, tell me why you went here alone to ask this god to come out of the mountain?" The man in the ghost mask said foolishly.
"God Lord still doesn't believe me?"
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's because your eyes betrayed you." The man in the ghost mask said directly.
Seeing this, the woman smiled slightly and immediately knelt down on one knee to the man with the ghostly mask in front of her and said: "What the Lord God said is absolutely correct, but the Lord God may not know something. Although I am one of the four evil spirits, little sister, they are The three of them did not have any contact with the little sister. Now that I am in a situation where I can’t stand alone, I can only ask the Lord for help. As the saying goes! It’s hard to beat four hands with one punch, not to mention that I am just a female. If With the help of God Lord, it will be easy to obtain this pearl, not to mention that God Lord will inevitably benefit from it afterwards!"
"What's the benefit?"
"Of course it is to help the Lord of Gods conquer the world and win the honor of the martial arts!" the woman said firmly.
The man in the ghost mask laughed, his voice getting louder and louder, and he was laughing very arrogantly. But it was only for a moment. He looked at the woman in front of him and said calmly: "Do you want to betray the Lord?"
"How can the Lord God see this?" The woman looked up at the mask in front of her, with no fear on her face.
Don’t women know the meaning of this? She didn't feel the slightest fear, and she gradually perfected the perfect plan to kill people invisibly in her heart.
Seeing this, the man in the ghost mask just smiled slightly and said, "I'm sorry you don't have the guts."
"The Lord Shen is so brave and good at fighting. He must be a perfect man. I also want to see the true face of the Lord Shen in Lushan. I wonder if the Lord Shen is willing to let me see his face?" After the woman got up, she deliberately changed the subject and spoke. Suddenly, he couldn't help but take a step closer to the man in the ghost mask.
"Hmph! I advise you not to see it. Otherwise, you will regret the decision you have made now. By then, you will not even be able to sleep soundly!" As he spoke, he glanced at the woman's eyes very coldly, as if he resented others seeing his true appearance.
"Oh? Is it so scary?" The woman was very confused and started to take another step forward. Unexpectedly, her step caused everything in front of her to undergo earth-shaking changes.
At this time, what she saw in front of her made her stunned. The direction she was walking was towards a cliff. The bottom of the valley was covered in white mist, and the whooshing sound of the wind made her take a step back. A scattered stone was inadvertently stepped down by her foot, and it slowly fell to the bottom of the valley, submerged in the white mist, and it took a long time before it made a clanging sound.
This scene really made it difficult for her to guess whether it was true or false. He just turned around and looked behind him, only to find that behind him was still a cliff filled with cold wind. The feeling was so real that she couldn't tell whether she was dreaming or falling under a legendary illusion.
"How could this happen?" The woman couldn't help but wonder, replaying her every move just now in her mind.
Those are a pair of eyes, the eyes behind the ghost face mask. Like an unreachable cliff or an unfathomable canyon...
She recalled the changes in that moment, especially those eyes, which were like myths and so mysterious. It was because of those eyes that she took a step closer.
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
…
Suddenly, everything in front of her was shattered like glass between her confident smile. It turned into countless fragments, slipped from the air, and gradually disappeared before your eyes. At the same time, the fragmented dark void returned to its original appearance.
Standing in front of her was still the man with the grimace mask. But at this moment, the man in the ghost mask stood with his back to her.
"As expected of one of the four most ferocious evil spirits! You can still get out of such a tempting place." The man in the ghost mask said with slight praise.
"Have you disappointed the Lord God?" The woman smiled and said confidently: "The Lord God may not know something, how could such a big flaw trap me. If the Lord God had used this illusion from the beginning, maybe I would have arrived. There is no way to escape now. But the result of using this method to deal with Zhao Yueheng is unknown. But I dare to conclude that this Zhao Yueheng is not as simple as the Lord Shen thought. I advise the Lord Shen to pay more attention This person is doing it for his own good, so as not to end up with an undeserved end, but that’s not a good thing!”
"Since this person is like this, why not put him to your own use? That wouldn't be a bad thing!"
"This person is difficult to deal with, and you still want to use him for your own use? I advise God Lord not to daydream. If God Lord really wants to do that, he will die without knowing how he died." The woman glanced at the grimace. The masked man said without any scruples.
The woman's words did not make the man in the grimace mask become angry for a moment. He just turned slightly and glanced at the woman in front of him, then turned back, looked up to the sky with an unfathomable laugh, and said: "Hahaha...! How can I do this in this place?" Among the people who are so arrogant in front of the Lord God, you, the Ghost Mother, can be regarded as the first person. No one who could underestimate this Lord God at the beginning can escape this mask of this Lord God. But today, I Lord God May be lost in your presence. Just do it once.”
Seeing this, the Ghost Mother just smiled faintly and said: "My Ghost Mother is here now because the Lord God was so merciful for a moment! If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid not even a single skeleton could be found intact."
The ghost mother in front of me is really good at talking, especially at critical moments, she can say words that make people feel loved. Her ability to observe words and expressions has indeed reached a certain level. It's a pity that the ghost mother's city is too deep, and even the cold-faced guest in front of her is kept in the dark by the ghost mother.
"I wonder if the Lord God has already thought of a way to deal with Zhao Yueheng?" the ghost mother asked curiously.
"What? Could it be that your ghost mother has a better way than this god?" The man in the ghost mask couldn't help but look at the ghost mother and asked with a hint of connotation.
"My ghost mother is just a female prostitute. I am not very good at the fight between you men. As a member of the same sect, I can only wish the Lord God to obtain the true treasure as soon as possible and help me." The Demon Sect adds glory!" The Ghost Mother bowed respectfully.
The Ghost Mother's words did not arouse any joy in the person wearing the Ghost Face Mask. Perhaps it was because the mask blocked what should not be covered that the Ghost Mother felt left out for a while. Just as the ghost mother was looking at those eyes, the cold-faced guest in front of her turned his face to one side and put his hands behind his back. Looking up at the sky, everything seems to be nothing.
"In the whole world, is it the king's land, and on the shore of the land, is it the king's ministers. Even if he has great abilities, he can't escape the palm of this divine king!" As he spoke, the man with the ghost face mask clenched his hands tightly, and fisted There was a crunching sound in the middle.
