"There is no need to say more about these scenes."
Zhuge Qingjiang obviously didn't buy Ma Liang's compliments, but interrupted without mercy, "Let's take a look!"
"Sir, please take a look."
Ma Liang smiled slightly, but was not angry. He held the two corners of the book in both hands and handed it over respectfully.
"Tao Hua Sutra?"
Zhuge Qingjiang took the book, glanced at the three ancient characters on the cover, curled his lips and said, "Kung Fu again? It's boring."
Ma Liang had a smile on his long face and didn't answer.
"I'm facing these books on martial arts, spiritual skills, and formations and divination all day long." Zhuge Qingjiang then complained, "I'm almost bored to death, can't you come up with some small talk to entertain me?"
"When the younger generation gets this kind of book, they will definitely give it to them with both hands." Ma Liang replied calmly.
"That's all, I just said it casually." Zhuge Qingjiang heard that he didn't mean what he said, shook his head and said, "A mere prisoner, who has the right to make demands? I just hope that for the sake of my being able to grant my requests, can you Tell the truth about the current situation of Zhuge Thatched Cottage?"
"Since I took over as the leader of the Divine Calculation Hall, I have been busy with things in the hall all day long. I haven't left the Seven Star Pavilion for a long time." Ma Liang was silent for a moment, and then slowly replied, "As for what happened outside, , I really don’t know anything, please forgive me sir.”
Zhuge Qingjiang's face was still rosy, but an imperceptible trace of sadness flashed through his bright eyes.
"Go ahead and come back in five days." He turned around and sat cross-legged on the ground, no longer paying attention to Ma Liang, but casually flipping through the "Tao Hua Jing", "Huh? Such a simple technique, Don't you want to try it yourself? No wonder Ma Xiaozi's attainments in divine literature are not advancing but retreating. He is really going back as he gets older."
He didn't lower his voice deliberately, so this sentence fell into Ma Liang's ears completely.
Ridiculous old man, he has lived for most of his life and is still so incomprehensible!
So what if your attainments in theology are strong, and what if you are weak?
Your theology is the best in the world, why don’t you have to use it for me?
As long as I have power, what can I not get?
The corners of Ma Liang's mouth raised slightly, a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and headed back in the direction he came from.
Junior brother Zhu Cong has been away for a long time and has not been heard from. He naturally won the theological literature competition.
Unfortunately, his master, the divine fortune teller, passed away, so Ma Liang naturally took over as the leader of the "divine fortune telling hall".
It wasn't until that moment that he finally learned the real secret of the "Divine Calculation Hall".
Zhuge Qingjiang, who has a great reputation in the outside world and is known as the "first theological scholar in the world", has been locked in the secret room of the Divine Calculation Hall since a long time ago.
When he first heard the news, he was full of admiration for Zhuge Qingjiang, and he felt like a fan facing his idol. Not only did he care deeply about the old man's daily life, but he would also go to him from time to time to ask him humbly questions about divine literature.
However, as time went by, this fanatical energy slowly dissipated, and he gradually realized that the so-called first divine scholar was just a poor prisoner, whose life and death were completely controlled by his own thoughts.
Ma Liang was originally a cold-blooded person. Once Zhuge Qingjiang's idol aura faded away, his attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees. Although he was still polite on the surface, he no longer had much respect in his heart. , and even directly used him as a tool to make money, taking advantage of the old man's powerful spiritual knowledge to gain a lot of benefits and rewards from his fellow disciples.
Zhuge Qingjiang is such a smart man, of course he will not be unaware of Ma Liang's change in attitude before and after.
It's just that he had some scruples after all. Although he was dissatisfied, he didn't show much resistance. Instead, he responded to every request. Whenever Ma Liang sent ancient books, he would decipher them seriously and never miss the mark.
As a result, Ma Liang quickly made a lot of money, and he was extremely satisfied. A different kind of balance was formed between the two.
Do you want to improve the old man's food?
Before leaving, such an idea came to his mind involuntarily.
"boom!"
Before he could come to a conclusion, an earth-shattering sound suddenly came from outside, and the whole building shook violently as if it had experienced an earthquake.
What the hell?
Ma Liang was caught off guard, staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"boom!"
Another loud noise came, more intense than the previous one, and the vibrations on the ground became more obvious.
"boom!"
The third sound that followed gave people a feeling like the earth was shattering and the earth was shaking. The strong vibration caused the surrounding walls to crack rapidly, and paint powder and bricks continued to fall down, making a "crack" sound. "Crackling" bursts of soft sounds.
"Woo!!!"
Immediately afterwards, a long and sharp sound like a siren sounded outside the house, and the reverberation lingered for a long time.
Enemy attack!
Ma Liang's expression changed when he heard this voice, and his face was full of disbelief.
The warning sound indicating an intruder from outside had not sounded in the "Seven Star Pavilion" for a long time. The strange feeling made Ma Liang almost doubt his ears for a moment.
"What? 'Seven Star Pavilion' has done too many evil things, and finally someone came knocking on its door?"
Zhuge Qingjiang's joking voice came from behind.
"Sir, you are right." Ma Liang looked back at him, his voice too calm, "There are indeed foreign enemies coming, and they can trigger warnings, and they are definitely not ordinary enemies."
"Really?" Zhuge Qingjiang was just joking, but unexpectedly he hit the mark. He couldn't help laughing and said, "If the 'Seven Star Pavilion' is destroyed, can't I go out?"
"Sir, I'm afraid you won't have this chance anymore."
Ma Liang was silent for a moment, then suddenly a complicated expression appeared on his face, and he slowly spoke, speaking word by word.
"you mean......"
Looking directly into his eyes, Zhuge Qingjiang seemed to understand something, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
"The sage has an order." Ma Liang said coldly, "If we really encounter such a situation, we cannot let Mr. leave the 'Seven Star Pavilion' alive under any circumstances."
"I'm just a Heavenly Wheel cultivator." Zhuge Qingjiang said with a bitter smile, "The Seven-Star Saint thinks too highly of me."
"Mr. Guiziguai's wisdom is so amazing." Ma Liang exuded a vast spiritual aura and walked slowly towards Zhuge Qingjiang, "It is really impossible not to make people feel fearful."
Being enveloped by this aura, Zhuge Qingjiang froze and instantly lost the ability to move. He could only watch the other party getting closer and closer.
"Are you about to take action now?" He forced a smile, "Maybe the enemy will be repelled soon?"
"To be honest." Ma Liang shook his head and said, "Now that the elites in the pavilion are almost all out, there are not many masters left. Since the opponent dares to forcefully break into the Holy Land, he is naturally fully prepared. We will most likely lose, so After taking my husband’s life, I will have to find a way to escape as soon as possible.”
"That's it." Zhuge Qingjiang nodded with enlightenment, and suddenly raised his head and looked directly into his eyes, "Anyway, I will die soon. I wonder if you can tell me the current situation of Zhuge Thatched Cottage so that I can die. Close your eyes."
"There are some things that it is better not to know than to know." Ma Liang had already arrived in front of Zhuge Qingjiang. He raised his right hand high and slapped the old man's Tianling Cap hard. "You just need to know that in a short time, the thatched cottage will The middle-aged man will go down to accompany you!"
A trace of sadness flashed in Zhuge Qingjiang's eyes, and he slowly closed his eyes, seeming to accept the impending fate.
"thump!"
However, the fatal blow he imagined never came. After a while, Zhuge Qingjiang couldn't help but open his eyes, and what he saw was Ma Liang's stiff body collapsed on the ground.
At this time, his face was dark, foaming at the mouth, his eyes were dim, and there was no breath between his mouth and nose.
died?
Zhuge Qingjiang was greatly surprised. His eyes glanced around instinctively and soon landed on a small shadow.
It turned out to be a colorful spider that was no bigger than a palm!
Judging from the appearance and color, there is no doubt that it is a poisonous spider.
I saw this small spider lying on Ma Liang's shoulder, its eight small eyes staring directly at him.
At this point, Zhuge Qingjiang couldn't understand that the cause of Ma Liang's death was definitely related to this poisonous spider.
Although he was saved by the spider, he was not sure whether the other party would continue to attack him after poisoning Ma Liang, and he felt worried.
The old man and the spider looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. No one moved at all. The whole secret room fell into dead silence for a moment, as if they could hear the sound of a pin falling to the ground.
"boom!"
At this moment, another shocking loud noise came.
Immediately afterwards, the entire secret room could no longer hold on under the shaking of the earth. Several cracks appeared on the walls and roof at the same time. They spread rapidly with the sound of "crack", and finally collapsed completely, even the ground. They all split on both sides.
The old man couldn't help but fall downwards with the collapsing building. The Divine Calculation Hall is located in the middle and upper floors of the "Seven Star Pavilion", which is dozens of stories high. Once the Heavenly Wheel master falls, he will have to remove two layers of skin even if he does not die.
Just when he was at a loss, his neck was suddenly pulled by an unknown force, and his fall stopped abruptly, and his whole body was suspended in mid-air.
Zhuge Qingjiang instinctively looked up, but was surprised to find that what was holding him was the filament spit out from the poisonous spider's mouth.
This small poisonous insect, which had never been masked before, actually came to help again.
Could it be that the spider I saved in the past became a spirit and came back to repay my kindness?
According to the routines in novels, if animals become spirits to repay a favor, won't they usually turn into peerless beauties?
Mr. Zhuge was pulled back and forth by the spider threads, and some inexplicable and weird thoughts appeared in his mind involuntarily.
"Thank you!"
After a while, he finally came to his senses, clasped his fists at the poisonous spider above his head and said thank you, then lowered his head and looked down.
The scene below was so shocking that the old gentleman was so shocked that one of his souls left his body and his second soul ascended to heaven. He couldn't believe his eyes.
monster!
Densely packed with countless monsters!
