Chapter 222 Is Something Wrong?
"senior,"
The two looked at the expressionless Zhang Chu and the Qilin Demon lying quietly beside Zhang Chu, no, it was the auspicious beast Fire Qilin, and said apologetically, "It was us who misunderstood your mount, senior, please forgive me!"
"Humph~"
A cold snort was heard, Zhang Chu touched the big head of Fire Kirin, his eyes narrowed slightly, "You two are sensible!"
"I won't bother with the two of you anymore!"
Looking at the two people who seemed to be hesitant to speak, Zhang Chu said calmly, "My name is Changsheng, and I have long forgotten my real name!"
"You two can call me Taoist Priest Changsheng."
"Greetings, Taoist Priest!"
The two of them simply called him Taoist priest, but did not add Zhang Chu's Taoist name.
"only,"
While the two of them were still in shock at the Tomb of Emperor Xuanyuan, Zhang Chu touched his chin, seeming to be in a dilemma, "Now there is still a problem."
problem?
Duan Shuai and Nie Renwang looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion: What problem?
"Have you forgotten what I told you?"
Seeing the two people's confused looks, Zhang Chu's eyes flashed with impatience, "Are your brains filled with paste?"
"Where is this place?"
He asked angrily, "This is the tomb of Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi, and it is also the dragon vein of Kyushu!"
"The Fire Kylin is the guardian of the mausoleum and the watcher of the dragon vein."
"Anyone who dares to step into the tomb of Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi will have only one fate."
At this point, Zhang Chu's words were filled with murderous intent, "That means death!"
The two people, enveloped by endless murderous aura, became stiff in an instant, their minds went blank, and they were no longer able to think of anything.
As Zhang Chu withdrew the murderous aura that enveloped the two of them, the two finally came to their senses and looked at Zhang Chu with eyes full of horror: How many people did this Taoist immortal in front of them kill to have so much murderous aura?
The two looked at each other, both with bitter smiles on their faces.
Zhang Chu has explained it so clearly, how could they not understand?
After all, both of them are old hands in the underworld and have a deep understanding of the affairs of the underworld.
The tomb of Emperor Huangdi and the dragon veins of Jiuzhou, any one of them would be enough to cause shock in Jiuzhou.
Now, these two things are combined together. If they were leaked out, it would be enough to turn Kyushu upside down.
People’s hearts are treacherous and fickle. No one can guarantee that the people who come in will not leak the information after they leave.
Therefore, in order to keep the secret, there is only one outcome waiting for the two of them, and that is death!
"Master,"
A trace of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the two men. After being involved in such a matter, with their strength, they really had no choice but to submit to death. "In order to keep the secret of Lingyun Cave, the two of us will be killed here from afar!"
"But, we have a request, please agree to it, Taoist Priest!"
“There are so many things to do!”
A trace of impatience flashed in Zhang Chu's eyes. "It seems that you two are also dedicated to serving the people. If there is anything I can do, I will do it!"
"Of course, if it's something too troublesome, don't talk about it!"
"I don't have the time, and I can't do it!"
"Master,"
The two looked at Zhang Chu's appearance and knew in their hearts that the Taoist priest in front of them had no reason to lie to them. "It's no big deal if we die!"
"That's right, our son is a little lonely and helpless!"
"If the Taoist priest is out, can you look after our son?"
"How old is he? I can't even breastfeed a child!"
After hearing Zhang Chu's words, the two of them showed joy on their faces, "Master, our sons are both five or six years old!"
“They are all very sensible!”
Zhang Chu thought for a moment and said, "I'll take care of this matter if I meet him again!"
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
The two men looked at the Taoist who was staring at them, smiled at each other, raised the swords in their hands, and slashed them directly at their necks.
"Pfft~"
The blood spurted out and landed on the rock wall nearby.
"Puff~Put~"
The two of them fell directly to the ground, their eyes revealing their attachment to the world and their longing for their loved ones.
"He's a man!"
Just when their thoughts were completely stagnant, they faintly heard the mysterious Taoist priest's
Admiration, and then, nothing more.
In the pitch-black Lingyun Cave, on a relatively flat platform, there were two figures with blood-stained clothes lying there quietly.
"Is this the underworld?"
A man sat up and looked around.
This person's action seemed to alarm another lying figure, who also sat up and shouted in the darkness, "Who is it?"
"No, it should be some ghost!"
"Brother Duan?"
The person who woke up first heard the other person's roar and felt that it sounded familiar. In an instant, his memory was awakened and he asked tentatively.
"Brother Nie?"
After hearing the familiar name, the person who woke up later also had his memory awakened, and then he said with some relief, "With Brother Nie accompanying me, I won't be alone even in the underworld!"
These two people were Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai who had committed suicide.
Just when Nie Renwang was about to open his mouth to respond to Duan Shuai, a ray of fire illuminated the dark cave.
"What is the underworld?"
A voice that left a deep impression on both of them sounded. Looking towards the fire, it was Taoist Priest Changsheng, followed by Fire Kirin.
"Master, are you dead too?"
Looking at the Taoist Changsheng who was coming over and the Fire Kirin beside him, Nie Renwang's face was full of surprise.
Their current memories are still of the time when they cut their own necks.
"die?"
Zhang Chu's eyes flashed with anger, "Even if you guys become corrupt, I will not die!"
After hearing this, the two were stunned for a moment, and silently felt their own conditions. The most important thing was that under the firelight, they had shadows.
Even the knife wounds on their necks were gone.
However, the blood stains on the clothes proved that they had indeed wiped their necks.
"Master,"
After thinking for a while, the two looked at Zhang Chu, hoping to get an answer from him, "We are..."
"You were indeed dead before,"
Although Zhang Chu's tone was calm, his words shocked them greatly, "I have saved you again!"
"It's not like someone has broken in before!"
"But they are so ignorant!"
"Kill him and kill him!"
"But, since you two are willing to sacrifice your lives to keep the secret of Lingyun Cave, it is enough to prove that you two are not bad!"
"It's such a pity that he died!"
"It would be better to keep you two here!" The two looked at each other and said at the same time, "Thank you for saving my life, Taoist Priest!"
"But, surviving is surviving!"
Zhang Chu waved his hands, not paying attention to the two's thanks, "But, you can only spend the rest of your life in Lingyun Cave!"
"Do you have any opinions?"
"We are willing!"
What opinions could the two of them have? It’s good enough that they can survive.
"In the future,"
Looking at the two of them, Zhang Chu nodded with satisfaction, "You guys stay in Lingyun Cave to guard the dragon vein and attack the tomb!"
"Yes, Taoist Priest!"
After hearing what Zhang Chu told them, the two of them immediately became excited.
Guarding the mausoleum and protecting the dragon veins are such important tasks. How could they be unwilling to do it?
"only,"
Zhang Chu looked at the two of them and nodded slightly, but there was a hint of disdain in his words, "You two are too weak!"
"If some expert really rushes in, can you two deal with him?"
"Master, please rest assured!"
The two men's eyes were filled with determination, even with a hint of determination to die. "If an outsider wants to enter the mausoleum and destroy the dragon vein, they have to step over our corpses."
"hehe!"
After hearing their words of determination, Zhang Chu sneered, "If you die, you die!"
"It's really not a big deal!"
"But if the dragon vein is destroyed, that would be a big deal!"
After hearing this, the two fell silent.
Indeed, compared to the dragon vein, the fate of the two of them is just that.
The famous Southern Lin Sword Master Duan Shuai and Northern Drinking Mad Knife Nie Renwang in the martial arts world were actually looked down upon here for their low strength.
If this news were to spread to the martial arts world, it would surely cause a sensation.
However, looking at the Taoist Changsheng standing in front of them, they had to admit that their strength was very low and they couldn't even take the palm of the Taoist in front of them.
But what can they do? It’s not like they don’t try hard!
Outside of Lingyun Cave, even if he is not invincible in the martial arts world, he is definitely one of the best.
Looking at Taoist Changsheng and Fire Kirin standing there, the two were really embarrassed.
"okay!"
Seeing the two of them in silence, Zhang Chu waved his hand and said, "If your martial arts skills are low, just practice!"
“It’s no big deal!”
"It just so happens that guarding Lingyun Cave is also an opportunity for you to improve your strength!"
"Yes, Taoist Priest!"
What else could the two say?
All I can do is practice martial arts harder.
"Whoosh~ whoosh~"
As soon as the two raised their heads, they saw Taoist Changsheng nodding at each of them.
Immediately afterwards, the two spots of light sank directly into their minds.
An extremely huge flow of information directly overwhelmed their consciousness, making their minds somewhat confused.
Subconsciously, the two of them sat down cross-legged and began to silently organize the information in their minds.
As they continued to absorb that information, the horror on their faces became more and more profound.
A completely new path of martial arts appeared in their minds.
The most important thing is that after practicing this martial art to perfection, their lifespan can be extended to 200 years.
After digesting the information in their minds, the two looked at each other and saw horror in each other's eyes: This martial art is so terrifying!
Looking at the empty ground in front of them, the two of them walked straight forward.
Soon, Zhang Chu sitting cross-legged and the Fire Qilin lying quietly beside Zhang Chu were seen.
"Duan Shuai, Nie Ren Wang!"
The two men straightened their clothes, walked in front of Zhang Chu, and knelt down on one knee, "Thank you, Taoist priest, for teaching me your art!"
"Get up!"
Zhang Chu waved his sleeves, and the two of them stood up involuntarily, "This doesn't count as passing on skills!"
"It's just that your strength is too low to defend Lingyun Cave!"
Having said that, the respect in Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai's eyes when they looked at Zhang Chu was no less.
Zhang Chu shook his head and stood up. "You two should practice hard and guard Lingyun Cave well in the future!"
"Yes, Taoist Priest!"
Both of them behaved as disciples, and their tone was full of respect.
"This technique is a combination of the strengths of many schools of martial arts that I created myself."
Zhang Chu looked at the two people standing in front of him and slowly explained the origin of the technique, "You should practice well!"
"However, since it is not yet perfect, it cannot be passed on privately!"
"disciple."
When the two were about to call themselves disciples, they saw Zhang Chu's gloomy face and immediately changed their words, "We will remember the Taoist's order!"
This skill is so powerful that if it were to be spread out, the two of them would really be dead without a burial place.
"Also, do you two want to change your training?"
As if he remembered something, Zhang Chu asked, "I can protect you!"
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
The two of them didn't hesitate at all. They sat cross-legged in front of Zhang Chu and began to practice the Changsheng Martial Arts 2.0 that Zhang Chu taught them.
As the skills were practiced, their internal strength, sword energy, and knife energy were rapidly being refined, strengthening their bodies.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. The internal strength, sword energy, and sword energy of the two had all been refined by the Changsheng Martial Arts and transformed into qi and blood power.
After the transformation, the two did not rush to get up, but instead silently felt the condition of their bodies.
Even though they had no internal force, sword energy, or knife energy, the two of them could clearly feel the increase in their vitality and the surging strength.
If they had a heavy weapon, apart from being a little less agile, they would probably be no weaker than before.
The most important thing is that practicing this technique can greatly increase your lifespan!
Moreover, up to now, they have not yet practiced this technique to the level of perfection, and are still a long way from perfection.
If they could cultivate to perfection? Not only would their lifespans increase, but their strength would also be improved.
And Zhang Chu did not leave either. He had been observing Nie Renwang and Duan Shuai who were changing their cultivation method.
He could clearly feel that the vitality of the two of them had become much stronger.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!"
After sensing their physical condition, the two men stood up and looked at Zhang Chu who was protecting them, with gratitude flashing in their eyes.
"You guarding the dragon vein is the best way to thank me."
Zhang Chu waved his hand, and then set his eyes on Nie Renwang.
Nie Renwang saw Zhang Chu staring at him and was confused: Is there something wrong with him?
