Chapter 299 The Ferryman's Entrustment

 There are piles of dead branches and rotten leaves at the entrance of the cave, mixed with the black mud on the ground, making it difficult to distinguish between you and me.

Old Man Li's eyes fell on the ground. I was so frightened by what he said that I didn't dare to underestimate him. I hurriedly lowered my body and observed carefully, and gradually I finally saw some features.

It turned out that among these dead branches and leaves and the black mud, there were actually some scattered ice particles.

These ice particles are uniform in size and look like rice grains. They are shaped like diamonds and are mixed in the soil. If you don't look carefully, you can't find them at all.

Wushuang also noticed this, squatted down and was about to twist it with his fingers.

Snap!

Old Man Li slapped his hand off, and said with a dark face: "I told you before, this place is full of dangers, and one mistake can cost your life, why are you still so reckless? This thing can

Did you touch it with your hands? You don’t want those hands anymore?”

I looked up at him: "What is this?"

"leftovers!"

Old Man Li sneered: "You must have heard of the Big Snake Entering the Dharma, right? Those Liujiaxian who have Taoism in the deep mountains and old forests, they don't have to go out to look for it when they eat, they only need to go there and take a plate, open their mouths, and eat in all directions.

Insects, mice and other things in the wild will run into its mouth like crucian carp crossing the river.

The same is true for the big rice dumplings who have Taoism. Once they reach a certain level, they no longer need to go out to suck people's essence and blood or swallow moonlight. They only need to sleep in a very yin and extremely evil place. Between exhalation and inhalation, there is no need to go out to suck people's essence and blood or swallow moonlight.

The evil spirit will gather towards it on its own.

Generally speaking, the Yin evil spirit is not enough for Da Zongzi. He can absorb it all at once. However, there are no absolutes in this world. If you encounter an extreme Feng Shui pattern, the Yin evil spirit will be too great.

Heavy, even the big rice dumplings may not be able to bear it. They are different from you. If the Earth Spirit Pearl cannot bear it, it will backfire on the owner and make him die. His life is not long. If the big rice dumplings are full, they will only absorb the excess Yin.

When the evil spirit was spit out, the evil spirit entered its body and was contaminated with corpse poison. After it was spit out, it condensed into small crystals.

Some little ghosts and demons call this kind of crystals leftovers, which means the leftovers from other people's meals. To them, it is the best reward in the world. If they can pick up two crystals, they can treat them as snacks.

It’s just like a child, it’s quite helpful!”

When Wushuang heard that this was related to corpse poison, he probably thought of Lao Bai's moldy and hairy legs, so he quickly took two steps back.

I looked bitter. I discovered such a place by accident. I was somewhat lucky. After all the hardships, I finally found the entrance to this ancient tomb. But according to what Old Man Li said, this place

The lair of the Living Corpse King is gone!

"Leave now while you can!"

Old Man Li sighed: "Since there is a small door, there should be a main entrance. If it doesn't work, you can get in through a hole. For you, the courtesy officer, this is not a difficult task!"

I nodded and was about to leave with them when a low roar suddenly came from down the mountain. The roar was suppressed and echoed in the forest...

"What is it? It can't be the Living Corpse King, right? It shouldn't come back so soon..."

My heart trembled, and I couldn't help but look back. The dark forest was empty, and I didn't see anything. I turned around and wanted to run away.

Old Man Li grabbed me. He was also nervous and embarrassed by the sudden roar. His eyes were wandering around, as if he wanted to find a hiding place, but we were already on the verge of the top of the mountain. If nothing happens, we will stand now.

On the top of the tomb, the trees have become sparse. Where is there any place to hide?

It was too late, but it was too soon. After a brief hesitation, Old Man Li pushed Wushuang and I directly into the lair of the Living Corpse King!!

"It's too late!!"

Old Man Li said to himself: "Listen to that voice, the other party is not far away from us. If it is really the Living Corpse King who defeated your master and returned, we can't escape at this distance. Let's see what it is, as long as it is not that

King of Living Corpses, let’s stand shoulder to shoulder and crush him to death!!”

What else can I say?

As of now, that's all!

The cave was narrow, and I was leaning against the cold wall, but my head was sticking out, and my eyes were looking directly at the bottom of the hillside.

Not long after, a bush in the distance suddenly roared, and a black shadow stumbled out of the bush. It was too far away, so I couldn't see what it looked like, but it should be human-shaped.

The thing was extremely tall, probably at least two meters tall, but it seemed like it was missing an arm and was severely injured. When running, its body was unbalanced. From time to time, it would fall to the ground and let out one or two painful roars...

"This seems to be a person!"

Wushuang lowered his voice and said, "Look, it seems like he still knows the pain..."

Old Man Li's face had long turned white, and he said nonchalantly: "Who are you? Who else is there besides us in this place? This is the Living Corpse King, who became a Taoist from a corpse, and came to life from death.

The big rice dumplings look no different from human beings!!"

After saying that, Old Man Li felt as if all his strength had been taken away from him. He leaned against the stone wall in the cave and said miserably: "What a great Zhang Daoxuan. He is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among men. With half the body of a heavenly master, he fought fiercely with a

The Corpse King actually cut off one of the Corpse King's arms forcefully, killing the Corpse King and defeating him. It's amazing, it's amazing. How many years has there been no such figure in Xuanmen?"

I felt happy when I heard this. So, my master won?

Looking at the hurried appearance of the Living Corpse King, it seemed that this was the only possibility.

As for my own safety, I didn't care too much. God was going to kill me, so what could I do? I raised my Baipi sword and shouted in a low voice: "Rush out and fight it!"

"Unwise, unwise!!!"

Old Man Li shook his head repeatedly, seemingly distracted, but after just snapping his fingers for a moment, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Wu Shuang beside him. In the darkness, there was a trace of sadness in his white eyes without pupils, and he suddenly raised his head.

He gently rubbed Wushuang's head with his hand, then turned to look at me and whispered: "Brother Wei, can the old man ask you something?"

This is an old man who is shameless and does very bad things. This is the first time I see him like this. I have a premonition in my heart and look at him in disbelief!

"From now on, I will leave Wushuang to you!!"

Old Man Li said to himself: "Remember, I leave it to you, not to Zhang Daoxuan or Yao Zi. The old man didn't say anything to ask you to treat him well. He will do whatever you need to do. No matter what he does, he will do whatever he wants."

They are enemies. Kick him hard. After all, how many years older are you than him? It doesn't matter if you are an older brother and you can kick or hit your younger brother a few times. But there is only one dog. If you have one mouthful to eat, don't starve him. This child is pitiful and wandering.

I have been living for a long time, and I am afraid of being hungry! As for life or death, in our line of work, we have no choice. The old man will not say anything that makes things difficult for others, but there is one thing that the old man can see clearly. Just you, little brother Wei.

Xingzi, as long as you are here, I will not throw Wushuang out to die!"

Wushuang is very smart, even I can guess something, how could he not guess it? At this time, his head is drooped, his hands are only holding the corners of his clothes, his expression is very stubborn, he is holding back his tears, and asks in a low voice: "

Is there no other way?"

"Didn't I teach you how to choose between one and three? Isn't this the end result of being a slave? Only I can do this!"

Old Man Li sighed softly and stared at Wushuang with a heavy gaze: "Do you remember what I said? From now on, you will follow Brother Wei. From today on, he is your brother. Whoever is his enemy is you.

Enemy!!"

Wushuang nodded silently.

Old Man Li glanced outside and was about to leave, but I suddenly grabbed him!

"I won't stay! As you said, I have no choice."

I said this, paused, and then said: "I just have doubts in my heart. When I was chased by Yin Chai and fled into the Yin Ren Inn, I met Zhi Niang. At that time, you said that there were still people alive.

, and immediately scared away the young lady, what do you mean by this? The last time you were in trouble and trapped in the mountains, I asked you, but you were vague. At this point, you should tell the truth to me, right? "

"I knew you'd ask!"

Old Man Li thought for a while and said quickly: "If you ask about this matter, I can't tell you the reason. What I know is very, very limited. My master just mentioned it casually on the eve of his disappearance. He said that there were still people alive in this world.

The official of ceremony, no, to be precise, is the living official of heaven!!

He didn't say anything more than this sentence, and not long after that, he disappeared, and this matter became a question in my mind!"

Is there still a living Heavenly Official in this world?!

One sentence was like a wake-up call, and it stunned me!

The lineage of ritual officers originated from Shengwu Tianguan. It is difficult to trace back the era. However, throughout history, ritual officers have participated in all dynasties. During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the East and West Weeks, until the Five Huan Dynasties, the last Tianguan carried the weapon of the ritual officer to heaven.

With Guan Ben's death, the inheritance came to an abrupt end, and the rest of the time was just a matter of lingering.

Since Old Man Li mentioned the word "Tianguan", it means that this person must have been a person from before Wu Huan Hua. So far, it has been nearly two thousand years!

Is there really anyone in this world who can live for two thousand years?!

Even if there is, can this person still be called alive?

Or, if there is a heavenly official, why do our ancestors have to watch their descendants suffer humiliation and blood and tears for two thousand years, and watch countless descendants being sacrificed alive by emperors and generals, and being killed in revenge by demons and monsters?

Is it because Old Man Li entrusted Wushuang to me because of something that I don't know is true or false?

There was no time to ask, the Living Corpse King was getting closer and closer to here.

Old Man Li took a deep look at Wushuang, with a flash of deep affection in his eyes. It could be seen that he really regarded Wushuang as his heir. This man had dirty tricks and did many cruel things, but no matter what he did,

, at least his loyalty to the ferryman is 100%.

Then, Old Man Li turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly he heard Wu Shuang calling "Grandpa" in a low voice behind him. He trembled all over, and his rickety body straightened up a lot in an instant, and he rushed out with a long stride, leaving only a wild laugh.

: "Master, I have lived up to your trust, and now this old slave is here to find you!!"
