"The sixty-year-old god is the guardian god of Taisui Ding, and he is also the general under Sui Xing. Their duty is to protect Taisui Ding with their lives."
Aguan nodded in a daze and continued to float. He pressed his body against the cauldron and felt that his hands were sticky, as if they could absorb the cauldron. He climbed up on the cauldron like a spider.
Climbing and crawling, I climbed to the cauldron. The top of the cauldron was sealed, as if it were covered with a lid.
He turned around on the top cover and felt like he was standing in a wide square with nine round holes about one meter in diameter in the center.
Aguan stood on the tripod and looked up. There were still bright flowers above. He couldn't see clearly. He only felt that his surroundings suddenly shrank. The stone wall in the square was suddenly very close to him.
Aguan shook his head, rubbed his eyes, and the stone wall returned to its original distance.
Aguan seemed to be in a dream, reaching out to grab, only to feel that there was something close to him in the distance. He could reach out and grab it, but he couldn't catch it. He kept trying, and every time he thought he had caught something, he opened his hand and looked, but there was nothing.
Aguan saw Taibai Xing still standing in front of the stone gate in a trance, and grinned at Taibai Xing.
Taibai Xing smiled bitterly, his voice sounded like relief, but also like reluctance: "Xiao Suixing, don't rush to catch me. In the future, even if you are tired, tired, or don't want to catch me, you can't do it. One year... ten years... ⋯Hundred years⋯⋯Thousands of years⋯⋯Endless, until the day your life ends⋯⋯"
Aguan seemed to understand, but he still couldn't help but scratch around and look at his empty palms. He staggered to the round hole, looked down, and saw nothing but a shiny thing inside. It was a big, big empty cauldron. He knew that soon it would be filled with sticky, ugly evil thoughts that were constantly emitted by all living things.
Aguan continued to reach out and grab until he could no longer see, hear, or feel anything anymore.
There were butterflies all around, black butterflies.
The backs of my hands hurt so much, my legs hurt so much, and there were dense tingling sensations all over my back, face, and stomach.
Black butterflies flew in one by one, biting the flesh on his naked body. He kept waving his hands, knocking down two or three, and more flew in.
He was escaping and running, with a dense crowd of butterflies chasing after him like evil ghosts. There were also black butterflies in front of him, and they were all black butterflies on the left and right.
The ground was covered in mucus, the stench was unbearable, gauze was scattered all over the floor, and some rotten flesh and sores were shaking like living things.
The black butterflies came around me one after another, and the pain on my body became more and more painful. He gradually lost strength and knelt down. More and more black butterflies swooped on him.
The scale powder scattered around got into the eyes, causing irritation and pain; when inhaled into the nose, the nasal cavity and trachea seemed to be burning.
He was coughing and crying. At this time, the gentle and warm yellow light spilled down, driving away the black butterflies.
He finally got the strength, jumped up suddenly, opened his mouth wide, and wanted to scream "wuwuahahah".
"Wow!"
Aguan jumped up from the bed, flapped his body, and jumped for a long time. Only then did he see himself standing on the bed, and Lin Shan was beside the bed, looking at him in surprise.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Shan looked at Aguan.
Aguan looked around and said in horror: "It seemed like... an insect bit me just now?"
"Insects?" Lin Shan asked, "What insect?"
Aguan scratched his head, thought suspiciously for a long time, and said: "I can't remember... maybe... it's a dream..."
"Don't think too much, go wash your face. Don't you want to meet those grandpas?" Lin Shan pointed to a door in the room: "This is the bathroom specially prepared for you by the gods."
"Everyone is so kind to me..." Aguan scratched his head and went in to freshen up.
Aguan finished washing and came out of the toilet. Lin Shan's bedroom, which was originally only Lin Shan's, became very lively. The Sanhua sisters were jumping on their beds and shouting: "This is Tai Sui's bed."
"Ah! He's out!"
"Hello, Mr. Tai Sui!"
Aguan was a little stunned when he heard Bai Sheng standing at the door of the room, chatting loudly with Qing Feng'er and Fu Sheng.
"Master Aguan, this is the breakfast I made." Qingfeng'er handed a green bowl to Aguan. Aguan saw that the bowl was white porridge, and various side dishes were placed on top of the white porridge.
Aguan picked up the spoon and took two bites. He felt it was so delicious that he couldn't help but praise it while eating.
Baisheng shouted: "Lord Tai Sui, luckily you woke up in time, Xiangzi ate sixteen bowls, and almost even your bowl!"
"Artest!" Aguan saw Artest leaning on the corner of the passage outside the door in a daze, looking at a loss. He quickly stepped forward, patted him and said, "Why are you here?"
Artai said with an ugly face: "What the hell...were you a monkey yesterday? You crawled around on the big cauldron, and then fell asleep by yourself. We have been waiting in the pagoda for a long time, and no one paid attention to us. Here we are. They are all gods, and I don’t dare to come out... If the landowner hadn’t thought of it and ran to inform the fairy, who asked me to come out to eat, I would have starved to death. I know that you are all gods above me, and Leibei and I It’s the same as the toad, they are just small roles, so it doesn’t matter if one of them starves to death, right?”
"I'm sorry!" Aguan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patted Atai on the shoulder to express his comfort. Then he saw that there were many rooms in this passage, which turned out to be the rooms of the two-star generals. Aguan walked forward and saw Ruoyu and Pianpian chatting in the room.
"Haha!" Aguan jumped in, patted Pianpian's bed vigorously and said, "Pianpian has made a new bed. I want to mess up your quilt and pillow."
Aguan pretended to grab Pianpian's quilt, but he didn't dare to actually do it, and his hands stopped in the air.
Pianpian and Ruoyu's reactions were unusually cold, and they just looked at Aguan coldly.
"I'm joking." Aguan was a little embarrassed, and frowned when he saw Pianpian unfolding the medicine packet in his hand and taking it orally. It was obvious that the medicine powder was very bitter.
"You are really almost healed, it's great..." Aguan said sincerely.
Ruoyu hummed and said with a smile: "Yes, don't see Sister Pianpian being so beautiful, she will fall down again!"
"I don't know why it's like that..." Aguan touched his nose and said, "Since Mr. Tai Sui was kidnapped by Chenxing, I often feel depressed and uncomfortable for no reason, so sometimes..."
Ruoyu pushed Aguan out and said, "Okay, okay, Sister Pianpian needs to change the dressing. Master Aguan, please go out first. The monkey you raised is going to die of loneliness. Go and keep him company."
"Ah..." Aguan wanted to say something else, so he asked Ruoyu to push out of the room. He vaguely heard Pianpian saying to Ruoyu: "I'm about to finish the medicine. I have to take it with Sister Yimi in the next two days..." "
At this time, Lin Shan was discussing today's tasks with Master Song and Zhang Gu outside.
Lin Shan met Aguan and said to Aguan: "Later, Mr. Taibai Xing and our group of Sui Xing generals will separately carry out the mission of raiding Emperor Fengdu."
"What about me?" Aguan asked with a sigh.
Master Song said: "There are only a few days left before the Taisui Cauldron is completed. We can't let you go to the front line again. If something goes wrong, all the previous hard work will be in vain."
"..." Aguan nodded. "I know..."
"Let's go." Matsu Fuzi waved to everyone, and the two-star generals all walked towards the hall.
Aguan and Atai were stunned in a corner of the hall, not knowing what to do. Looking from a distance, I could only see Lin Shan, Zhang Gu, and Master Song holding maps and assigning tasks to each immortal. The two star generals received the order and flew to the exit one by one.
After Pianpian finished changing the medicine, she and Ruoyu left the hall. Ruoyu made a face at Aguan and Atai, but Pianpian didn't even look at Aguan.
Aguan wanted to find some opportunities to talk to her, but Zhang Gu and Song Fuzi assigned tasks one after another, and the generals also responded one after another. It was really not an ordinary occasion for gossip. After receiving the order, Pianpian also flew out.
"How could Pianpian hate me so much?" Aguan sighed in a low voice, looking a little confused.
After finally assigning tasks, the hall gradually became quiet. Taibai Xing and Lin Shan then walked towards Aguan.
Taibai Xing patted Aguan on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Suixing, you were able to enter the situation faster than all the gods expected. This proves that Wu Xing and Qian Yao's ideas were indeed correct."
"Aguan..." Lin Shan said with a smile: "Don't think that everyone is neglecting you. Everyone performs their own duties, and we don't leave you idle. These days, you have to concentrate on sensing Taisui Ding and adapting to Taisui Ding's functions. Everything. The Tai Sui Cauldron is about to be completed. Even General Erlang can't carry such a big cauldron. Only you, Tai Sui, can carry it. Don't move the cauldron by then, as if you died sleeping on the cauldron last night."
