Shuo Bai was very weak and could not move at all. He raised his head hard, looked at the mountain god in the air, and said with difficulty, "Brother, do you want the master's name to be related to the devil's cave?"
In mid-air, the mountain god was stunned for a moment, and a moment of confusion flashed in his eyes. But soon, his face turned ferocious again, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Shuo Bai, don't use your sweet words! Sealing the Demon Cave is a great merit, but under your deliberate concealment, the merit became the work of a priestess. My master died to seal the Demon Cave, but my master could not even die. Leave a good name! Shuo Bai, it’s all your fault, everything is your fault, you deserve to die, you deserve to die!”
The mountain god roared and the mountain shook violently.
I lay on the ground and grabbed the stone hard to prevent myself from rolling down the mountain.
Actually, I don't understand this either.
The priestess took away the credit from Master Shuobai, but Shuobai had no reaction at all. He was even helping the priestess to hide it. He seemed to really not want his master to be related to the Demon Cave, as if sealing the Demon Cave again was not a great merit worthy of praise.
Only very few people who are very close know the truth.
"Others don't know, but you should know!"
Shuo Bai yelled that he was too seriously injured. He shouted, breathed for a long time, and then spoke again, "Brother, you know what is sealed in the devil's cave! Master has a great reputation throughout his life, and she cannot be tainted by this incident." He has lost his reputation. Moreover, only by concealing the truth about Master’s death, and after Master is resurrected, can he return to the throne of God.
The priestess sealed the devil's cave again. She was a great hero in the heaven. She died. Why didn't the heaven resurrect her? Why not help her enter reincarnation?
My father died because of sealing the Demon Cave. If this is really a great merit, then he should ascend to immortality instead of dying! Still don’t understand? Heaven does not allow the matter in the Demon Cave to come to light. Senior brother, don’t let Master have anything to do with the Demon Cave. "
The mountain god seemed to suddenly think of something and froze in mid-air.
At this time, Si Heng said, "Mountain God, if you think about it carefully, without Shuo Bai's concealment, the person you hate would have turned into a priestess. The priestess is hailed as a heroine by the heavens. You know all the truth, You know she is a sinner, but there is nothing you can do. Do you think the way of heaven is unfair? Immortal cultivators doubt the way of heaven. You will not just be troubled by inner demons, but you may have been possessed by the demons for a long time.
Mountain God, Shuo Bai protects your faith and loyalty to the way of heaven. It is he who protects your heart of the way and your divine status. Do you really want to kill him now? "
The mountain god looked at Si Heng. He regained his senses, the blood in his eyes dissipated, and his eyes slowly returned to clarity.
The undulating black evil energy on his body was disconnected from his body, and large swaths of black energy floated into the air and disappeared.
He fell from mid-air to the ground, the mountain stopped shaking, and the dancing vines disappeared.
Without the vines to stop them, Si Heng rushed over and pulled Xiao Qi and Shuo Bai out of the gap.
As soon as the two people left the gap, the gap closed, and no seal could be seen, as if the gap had never appeared.
Xiaoqi lay on the ground, crying and trembling without any image. He was frightened.
Shuo Bai lay next to Xiao Qi, opened his eyes with difficulty, glanced at the mountain god, and then lost consciousness again.
The mountain god walked to Shuo Bai, stretched out his hands, and quickly recited a few words, and a seven-color glazed candlestick appeared out of thin air in his hands.
The candlestick is the size of a water cup, with a white jade base and a half-opened lotus at the top. The petals of the lotus are seven colors, and the lotus stamen is the candle burning in the candlestick. The candle flame was weak, as if it might go out at any moment.
This should be the glazed candlestick that the mountain god lost before.
When I stared at the magic weapon in the hand of the mountain god, the mountain god suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at me.
"Tang Xiangu, please come here."
I was stunned for a moment, and when I saw Si Heng nodding to me, I got up from the ground and walked over.
Walking next to Shuo Bai, I was so close to Shuo Bai that I even smelled the aroma of barbecue wafting in the air.
This smell came from Shuo Bai's body. He was struck twice by lightning. He was covered in black from head to toe and seemed to be scorched. His clothes were in tatters, his skin was charred, and bright red blood was still oozing out from the charred skin, which was too horrible to look at.
I felt so distressed that I sniffed and didn't dare to look at him at all. I can't lose control now, no matter how uncomfortable I feel, I can't relax myself. After all, I still don't know what the mountain god wants to do.
"Tang Xiangu, this is my magical weapon, the glazed candlestick," the mountain god said. "I once imprisoned the mountain demon in the candlestick and refined it day and night. During the daily contact with the mountain demon, I was influenced by the mountain demon's mind and breed. Inner demons. Inner demons are causing trouble. I released the mountain demon and used it to arouse your suspicion of Shuo Bai. That time, I planned to take advantage of your betrayal and take Shuo Bai's life.
Now that I think about it, I'm really despicable. I am a local god. Even if I want to kill someone, I can just take his life. Killing someone with a borrowed knife and plotting is really despicable.
Tang Xiangu, although I am awake now, I am controlled by inner demons, which means that my Taoist heart is not firm enough. I have to go into seclusion to practice and stick to my Taoist heart. Before I leave, I leave you my magic weapon, the glass candlestick. "
As he spoke, he handed the glazed candlestick to me.
I was startled and confused, "You want to give me your magic weapon?"
What for me?
I'm an ordinary human being, and if you give me a magic weapon, I won't be able to use it.
The mountain god glanced at Shuo Bai who was unconscious, then looked at me and replied, "Tang Xiangu, I hurt Shuo Bai like this, so I gave you the magic weapon as compensation for him. The glass candlestick is mine. The natal magic weapon is connected to my blood. If you encounter danger again in the future, you can borrow my power from the magic weapon."
Hearing this, I was instantly moved.
I have already felt the power of the witch, so I know that having power often means having confidence.
I am also practicing, but now I am an ordinary person who has lived for eighteen years, while Shuo Bai and Si Heng are spirits who have lived for thousands of years. With the speed of my own cultivation, I will never be able to catch up with them.
If you want to fight alongside them, the fastest way is to borrow the power of others.
Now the mountain god has taken the initiative to lend me his power, of course I am willing.
However, although I was excited, I did not rush to pick up the glass candlestick.
I looked at the mountain god and asked, "Mountain God, what do you need me to do for you?"
After hearing my question, the mountain god smiled with satisfaction, "Tang Xiangu, you made me feel that my choice was right. My request is very simple. I want you to stay with Shuo Bai and help him resurrect my master.
I had evil thoughts in my heart, and I was too embarrassed to see Master until I stabilized my Taoist mind. So I leave it to you and Shuo Bai to resurrect the master. I am willing to contribute my strength. "
I took the glazed candlestick and said, "Mountain God, I agree to your request."
