Since that little mouth is smiling, it means that at least emotionally, it is at a relatively excited angle. From his words "Sure enough, I found him", it made me think that at least Qin Bukong had anticipated this incident. However, he did not notify us in advance to take precautions, nor did he rush ahead of us to prevent this incident from happening. It's as if every step is planned in advance and waiting for it to happen.
When I thought of this, anger emerged from my heart again. I said to Qin Bukong who was standing at the door, what is wrong with you? Since you knew it already, why didn't you tell us in advance? , if I return to the ward a little late today and something happens to Master because of this, can you bear the responsibility? Also, if you have something to say, please say it. Don’t talk to me with your deformed mouth!
Qin Bukong sneered, but this time it was his own voice. He said, it's really strange. Why should I be responsible for this matter? Coming here to remind you is an act of kindness, but you blame me instead. . I am angry in my heart, but I am not willing to have a verbal argument with this kind of person, because his logic is fundamentally different from that of a normal person. It does not make sense for a selfish person to reason.
Qin Bukong smoothed his beard to cover his small mouth, and then said to me, although my mouth is deformed, it is of great use to me. You little brat, how can you do that? Understand? Not only can it speak human language, it can also speak ghost language. Among the sentient beings in the six realms, as long as they can communicate, I can use it to communicate with them all!
At this time, I suddenly remembered the whispers I heard outside the Death Gate when I angrily went to Qin Bukong to seek revenge. It seemed that Qin Bukong was talking with his small mouth, and he was talking to Qin Bukong. The person he was communicating with, thinking about it now, should be the ghost behind the door.
Qin Bukong walked to the ward and closed the door. As he slowly walked towards me, he said, the ghost that you just killed was directly connected to this vajra prong. After it was taken away by us, I deliberately asked you to take it with you. Come to the hospital and show it to your master. If one of the eight vajra prongs is missing, the Bagua array will lose its original function and will be easily cracked. For this reason, it will definitely come back.
Qin Bukong looked at the master lying on the hospital bed, and then continued, and this ghost with the appearance of all living beings can only be so powerful within the scope of the Bagua array, so powerful that even I can't deal with it. It may not be a sure win. That’s why we specially brought it here. When it goes outside the formation, it will be much weaker. Many of the magic powers that could control people will be ineffective here. Otherwise, how could a three-legged cat like you be its? opponent, let alone kill it.
He was right. In fact, this is what surprised me, because when I fought with this ghost today, although the fight would still be fierce, after all, it was based on the fact that I had already experienced its power, and I already felt that There is a known sense of fear, but in fact, judging from the process, it is indeed much weaker than when it was in the tunnel.
Qin Bukong went on to say that outside the formation, it is just an ordinary ghost made up of many souls gathered together. Haven't you noticed that this time today, from beginning to end, it can only attack with this vajra prong? Do you have no other tricks besides this? And your little tricks like Zi Wei Tao and Lei Jue are not worth mentioning if they are in the tunnel, but can they be forced to react here?
I didn't continue talking. Qin Bukong seemed like a person who had predicted the outcome long ago, and every word he said made sense. He walked up to me, reached out and picked up the wooden root left by the ghost after it dispersed from the ground, and said, "This thing, although you may not think it is strange, is the foundation of all living beings. Although you just killed the one in front of you, if you If you don't burn this thing, sooner or later, you will be able to gather a more powerful one for you. After speaking, he took the wooden root in his hand and looked at it carefully against the light. Soon he pointed to a relatively smooth section of the wooden root and said to me, look at this, what words are engraved on it?
I took it from his hand and looked at it. There were indeed a few words engraved on it, but because of the age, the writing was very faint and there were damaged parts. After careful identification, I found the words "all living beings have nowhere to hide" written on it. Although I don't quite understand why the person who set up the Bagua Array chose these eight characters, judging from the ghosts of this sentient being, there seems to be traces to follow. The ghosts of all living beings hide behind the door of death, as if to mean that all living beings die once and will become the same after death.
Qin Bukong said, now that I have borrowed your brute force, I have destroyed this ghost. As long as this Vajra Prong does not return to the Bagua Formation, I will be able to break it sooner or later. In all, it is also a credit to you. I snorted, not to mention that I had no interest in the soul of the Witch King he was looking for. Just because he used others without caring about their lives, I didn't look down on him at all. Maybe my performance was too obvious, Qin Bukong said, I, Qin, am not an ungrateful person. You and your master have helped me in different ways at different stages, and I will repay you.
I still said angrily, you? How else can you repay me? Can you make my master return to his former self? If he hadn't met you, would he have ended up like this? After saying that, I pointed towards the master on the bed, my tone a little excited. But at this time, I rarely saw a fleeting expression on Qin Bukong's face. That expression was more or less a feeling of self-blame, but he soon said, "This is all your master's fate." , it is destined that he will come to me and suffer this disaster. People can disobey orders, but in the end, they still have to obey them.
He walked to the bed, straightened the bed that had been knocked out of alignment when I was fighting with all sentient beings, and then said to me, I will wait here until your master wakes up. Since he feels that I owe him an explanation, I will wait until he wakes up and give him one myself. Then you, master and disciple, can temporarily move to live with me. I have some Miao village methods that can help your master recover better. Although he can't be as lively as before, he is definitely better than you dragging him to death. powerful.
I wanted to talk back and say, who cares about your dirty tricks? Who knows if you have some evil ideas, but I didn't say anything. I had doubts in my heart, but I vaguely hoped that he really had a way to make Master better. stand up.
So that night, Qin Bukong occupied my position, so that I could only sit on the edge of Master's bed. The advantage of being in a hospital is that once you get injured, you can quickly find someone to take care of it. The worst that can happen is that you will be asked a few more questions about the origin of the injury. The wound on my hand was relatively large, so I went to the surgical emergency department. After asking the medical staff on duty to help me disinfect and treat the wound, I secretly took the piece of wood to the public toilet and burned it dry. Clean.
The strange thing is that the burning flame is blue with green in it, which is completely different from the feeling of ordinary flames. And because it has been stored for nearly a thousand years, the wood is a little dry, and the "blood" flowing out from the fractured surface is like wood oil dripping out when burning, which actually increases the intensity of the flames.
After all this work, it was already twelve o'clock at night, but I couldn't fall asleep. At first I thought it was because of the pain in the wound on my hand, but then I realized that it was because I was worried about Qin Bukong who was present. . If I fall asleep, something might happen to this person. Although this person is not evil, he is definitely not a decent person. So we spent the whole night inexplicably, during which time I kept wiping Master's mouth with cotton swabs dipped in water.
Just as Master's attending doctor said, the next morning the effect of Master's anesthetic wore off and Master woke up. When the master saw that Qin Bukong was here, his expression was surprised, but because he was tongue-tied, I simply told the master what happened last night, but I didn't say that Qin Bukong was waiting for this on purpose. Everything is happening, and I have been watching the excitement from the sidelines. Thinking about it, based on Master's understanding of Qin Bukong's character, he could also think of it.
In the afternoon, Master was able to speak smoothly, but after all the surgery, his body was still very weak. I whispered into Master's ear and told him, this Qin Bukong also said that when you can be discharged from the hospital, he will take you to his home to live. He has a way to make your injury recover faster, but This person is both good and evil. I don't know whether I should agree to him or not.
The master had a sad look on his face. It was obvious that due to the previous grudge between him and Qin Bukong, the master would rather live a few years shorter than agree to it. I asked because I wanted to hear the master's own thoughts. Since the master is still here, as a disciple, I naturally cannot make any decisions. But after hesitating for a while, the master nodded slightly to express his agreement.
Master's reaction surprised me. After hesitating for a moment, I asked him, can you tell me why you do this? We still don’t know whether what he said is true or false. But the master said weakly, even if the treatment for me is fake, we still have to go. Because the big secret hidden under his tunnel is of no use to our sect, but you can take my place and follow me to complete this matter. When you finish all this, even if you are young, you will be worthy of it. Called a master.
The master's tone was very weak, and every word seemed to be very laborious. But what he said made me freeze on the spot and remained silent for a long time.
