Master's Ultimate Master

There is only one way to go to the Demon Realm—the sinful road, which is located in the southwest, close to the ghost town.At the end of the evil path, there is a demon general who is as powerful as Xuan Ye is guarding.

Xuan Yi never dreamed that Fandu said to walk, since they left Jingye Peak, they have been walking.The two are full of spiritual energy, even if they walk for several years, they will not get tired.But according to the speed of the two of them, it would take at least a month to reach the evil way.

Of course Xuan Yi wanted to enter the Demon Realm as soon as possible, but Fan Du refused to cooperate. Along the way, this person walked with his hands behind his back, as if walking in a courtyard.Xuan Yi felt that it was not kind to leave him alone.So he had no choice but to slow down and cooperate with Fandu instead.

Just eating and sleeping like this, I walked slowly for more than half a month, and I was not far from the ghost town.On this day, the two of them walked through a forest side by side, and the sky suddenly dimmed, and the clouds were dense, and the pressure became lower and lower.A storm is coming.

Not far ahead, there is a small mountain village surrounded by mountains and rivers.The places I passed some time ago were either barren mountains or wild jungles, or lush jungles, with almost no human habitation.During this period, Xuan Yi could only pick some wild fruits to satisfy his hunger.

At present, it is hard to find a family, and the weather is not good, so I have to rest in this small mountain village for one night.This was Xuan Yi's idea, but Fan Du didn't care about the fireworks in the world, so he was afraid that he wouldn't want to, so he asked cautiously: "Mr. Wuchang, it's going to rain soon, how about we just stay in the village for one night?"

Fandu said lightly: "You decide."

Xuan Yi was quite surprised, and couldn't help but glance at him: "You...don't mind?"

Fandu stared at him with his dark eyes: "Master Lianheng, do you mind?"

Xuan Yi: "I don't mind. I'm just afraid that you won't get used to it. If that's the case, then let's go."

Fandu looked cold: "Yes."

When we entered the village, the sky became darker and darker, as if night had fallen.The strong wind rolled up the fallen leaves all over the sky, and swept past the two of them.Xuan Yi brushed the wind-blown hair at his temples, and his eyes lingered between the houses on both sides.

After a while, he couldn't help being surprised: "No one?"

From the beginning of the village to the end of the village, there are crude and simple wooden houses, and some roofs are only covered with a thick layer of thatch, scattered all over the place. There are at least hundreds of households, which can be regarded as a big village.

But most of the houses that Xuan Yi has seen have their doors open, and there seems to be no light inside.

The two walked further along the road under their feet, and what they saw was similar.Xuan Yi walked to the door of one of the houses, reached out and knocked on the doorpost twice, and shouted, "Is there anyone there?"

The voice went out for a long time and there was no response.Xuan Yi said again: "We are from other places. We pass by Guicun. Because it is going to rain, we can't make our way. So we want to stay at the master's house for one night. Is it convenient?"

Still no sound from inside.

Xuan Yi knew that there was something different, so he exchanged a glance with Fan Du, and the two went in together.Before entering the door, Xuan Yi said "excuse me" loudly, but after entering the room, he realized that saying this sentence was unnecessary.There is no one in the front and back of the hall, the house is empty.The layout inside is fairly neat, and there is no dust on the ground. It can be judged that the owner of the house has not been away for a long time.

They looked at several houses one after another, but the result was the same, no one was in the house.In such a large village, except for Xuan Yi and the other two, no one else knew where they had gone.Could it be that there was a sudden plague, and the people here fled to other places for refuge?

Xuan Yi carefully observed the surrounding environment. It didn't look like the plague had erupted. There were no dead bodies on the roadside. From time to time, there would be one or two barking dogs in his ears, and there were still living things, which meant that it was not a plague.

Apart from the plague, what other reason could make the entire village escape cleanly?

Xuan Yi pondered for a moment, having no clue, couldn't help asking Fan Du: "Mr. Wuchang, what do you think?"

Fan Du said: "I don't know."

Even he didn't know, Xuan Yi felt that it was useless to think too much.At this time, a white lightning flashed across the sky, and the heavy rain was coming in an instant.Xuan Yi randomly found a wooden house on the left, worried and didn't think too much, so he dragged Fandu and ran under the eaves.

After entering, I realized that this room is really pitifully small. There is a narrow compartment at the back for people to rest. There is a wooden table and wooden benches in the center of the front hall. I didn’t see the kitchen, so it should be outside.Other than that, there is nothing in it.

As soon as the two of them entered the door, there was loud thunder outside, and a violent storm swept in instantly.Xuan Yi's robe was stained with a few drops of rain, but he didn't care.After entering the room, he sensed Fandu's gaze. He felt strange and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

Fandu didn't speak, and Xuan Yi quickly realized that he was in a hurry just now, he was afraid that Fandu would get caught in the rain, so he dragged him away before thinking too much.Still holding on at this point.

He immediately let go, and said in a friendly voice, "Sorry, I..."

Fandu remained silent, looked at him for a while, then turned his gaze away.

Xuan Yi suddenly felt embarrassed, and at the same time, doubts suddenly appeared in his heart. He just pulled Fandu's wrist, and he could still feel the cold air coming from the other person through the thin material.To Xuan Yi's horror, he didn't feel the other person's pulse.

Qing Weijun is proficient in medical skills, and Xuan Yi has been fascinated by it, so he understands a little bit, and he is quite good at the most basic pulse.Even with the extra clothes in between, his five senses are sharp, but it still doesn't affect him.The pulse of a person is often consistent with the heart.

He couldn't detect Fandu's pulse. There were two situations. One, Fandu's cultivation base had reached the peak, and the mortal body was completely reborn, and even the pulse was barely there.Another kind, maybe he has no heart!

The heart is an important organ to maintain the normal functioning of the human body. Even a person who cultivates immortals cannot live without the heart. Without the heart, people will die.Xuan Yi was shocked, but luckily he immediately ruled out the second possibility.

If Fandu really had no intentions, then the one standing in front of him now is not a living person, but a fresh and beautiful corpse.

Rationality told him that it was impossible, but Xuan Yi still couldn't help but think about it. Last time in the cave, his heart throbbed for no reason. If the wound left by the cold arrow has not healed, then it's okay.What he is most afraid of is that there are other reasons that he does not know.

After pondering for a long time, he suddenly said: "Mr. Wuchang, can you tell me what kind of panacea you used to bring me back to life?"

The cold arrow that Xuan Yi hit was no less powerful than when he fired it with a restraining bow.At that time, his heart was already torn apart, and he almost died on the spot.So he was very curious, what method Fandu used to save him.

Fandu turned his back to him, and his voice was indifferent: "It's the result I want. The process is not important."

Xuan Yi was startled when he heard the words, he murmured: "I remember that I have no friendship with you, why did you waste your energy to save me?"

Fandu was silent.

Xuan Yi sighed, and said with a warm smile: "I often went to Jingye Peak back then, and met you a lot, but I couldn't use five fingers to say anything. At that time, I once thought that you were very hate me."

After a while, Fan Du said: "I don't hate it. It's just..."

Xuan Yi said: "I know. It's just that you are not good at words. Your senior brother has told me about this a long time ago. Every time he talks to me, he will talk about you in a few words. It can be seen that he is very good friend. I care about you, my junior."

As he said that, his eyes were empty, and his thoughts seemed to return to many years ago.

Fandu turned around slowly, stared at his face with cold eyes, hesitated to speak, and after a while, Fandu said: "Lord Lianheng, I am not bad at words, it is Master Lianheng who didn't give me a chance. From the beginning to the end, Lord Lianheng only has Jun Qingwei in his eyes, and he is indifferent to me, even fearful. Perhaps, Lord Lianheng really hates me."

He said a lot at once, and every sentence hit Xuan Yi's heart. After a long time, Xuan Yi still hadn't finished digesting it.

Fandu actually thinks he hates him?This, where to start?It is obvious that he is always putting on a cold and cold attitude, but the outside world has also spread wild rumors that he is too cold-tempered and cannot be approached easily, otherwise bloody murders will occur.Xuan Yi didn't want to cause trouble for his friend, so he could only keep him at a respectful distance.

It took a long time before Xuan Yi regained his composure, and said sincerely: "I have never hated you. On the contrary, I admire you quite a lot. My friends are full of praise for you, saying that you are a once-in-a-century genius in the cultivation world. The proud son. I agree with him on this point. You are better than blue in blue. In terms of cultivation, you have skyrocketed and your future is limitless. My friend and I are ashamed of ourselves."

He said so much, but Fandu only listened to what he wanted to hear, and even used it to ask him: "Master Lianheng, do you appreciate me?"

Xuan Yi answered calmly: "That's right."

The proud son of heaven, he can be grabbed casually or a lot.Both Xuan Yi and his friend are considered to be the best monks of their generation, but compared with Fan Du, the two of them are after all inferior.The two are open-minded, and they also admire Fandu.It is believed that there is such a dazzling star in the world of comprehension, which will surely make all evil spirits invincible and invisible.Fandu is the hope of the future righteous way.

After he finished his answer, he saw Fandu drooping his eyes and contemplating, not knowing what he was thinking.Afraid of disturbing the other party, after closing the window on the right, he found a wooden stool and sat down.

The storm lasted all night.The two sat facing each other, looking at each other silently.Fan Du himself didn't talk much, Xuan Yi was thinking about his own thoughts and had no intention of speaking.It is equivalent to sitting in meditation, so until dawn.

The world washed by the rain seems to be completely new.The dark clouds in the sky cleared away, and the blue sky was comparable to the clear sea water, with white clouds drifting past.The wet soil on the ground still smelled of rainwater at night.

The two continued on the road side by side.

Not far from the village, on the road ahead of the two, they suddenly saw a group of people dressed as civilians running towards them as if fleeing for their lives.When they passed by the two, they saw that they were both carrying weapons, which was unusual. They froze for a moment, their faces were full of fear, but they didn't dare to stop, and continued to run wildly in the direction they came from.

Xuan Yi stopped one of the strong men and said, "May I ask what happened and why are you so panicked?"

The brawny man was sweating profusely from running, and didn't bother to wipe it off. He hurriedly replied, "There are monsters chasing us from behind! You two, are you two cultivators?"

The strong man saw that their aura was dusty and their attire was similar to that of many immortal monks, so he asked this question.

Xuan Yi said: "We come from Taoism, and we specialize in catching and subduing demons. Can you tell me what kind of monster is chasing you?"

The brawny man seemed to be a bit knowledgeable, knowing that the Taoist sect is a sect of immortals rooted in the human world, and everyone in it knows magic, and it might be able to help them, so he roughly explained the ins and outs of the matter.

It turns out that there is a mountain near here, called Quman Mountain, named after the winding road up the mountain.Around Quman Mountain, there are several small villages scattered here and there.Whenever someone dies in the village, everyone unanimously carries the dead person to Quman Mountain for burial.Over time, Quman Mountain became a veritable graveyard. Some poor people couldn't afford coffins, so they just dug a hole to bury the dead, so it was also called a mass grave.

It was fine, but not long ago, someone carried the corpse up the mountain, and saw a strange woman holding a red umbrella, digging other people's graves everywhere.The woman was accompanied by a man in black, who smelled like dead bodies.Upon discovering the funeral procession, the woman said something softly, and the man in black suddenly jumped up, with a hideous face, and ripped open the mourners one by one.The person who was walking at the end was so frightened that he pissed off, slipped on the soles of his feet, and rolled from the top of the mountain to the slope. He fell so badly that he almost paralyzed his body, but because of this, he escaped from the sharp claws of the man in black and survived.

The man was so angry that he ran back to the village and told everyone what he saw and heard.

The timid ones quickly closed the door; the brave ones jumped up in anger when they heard someone digging their ancestral graves.No matter how terrifying the man in black was described by that person, some strong men from the village were gathered together, each of them copied a hoe, kitchen knife, butcher's knife, and headed towards Qu Manshan in a mighty manner.

Once the strong man left, he never came back.Because everyone was torn apart on the top of the mountain.

When the news spread, everyone in the village near Quman Mountain knew about it, and they were panicked, fearing that the woman and the man in black would go down the mountain and tear people apart.For the safety of themselves and their families, people in the village fled for their lives one after another.The same is true of the village where the strong man lives.

After listening, Xuan Yi pondered: "The woman with the red umbrella must be Ye Qi and the living dead."

Fuqin had seen Ye Qi digging the grave before, but he didn't say that he saw her kill someone.Ye Qi controlled the man in black to kill, and it happened only recently.No wonder there was no one in the village where Xuan Yi and the two stayed overnight. It turned out that everyone had fled for their lives.

The strong man said: "Since the two immortals can eliminate the demons, please go and eradicate the two demons who dug the grave, so as to save us from running blindly."

Xuan Yi asked: "Where is Qu Man Mountain?"

The strong man pointed to a certain direction and said: "The two of you keep walking in this direction, and when you see a black mountain, it will be Quman Mountain. If the two immortals can really get rid of this evil, I will definitely be there in the future." Burning incense and worshiping Buddha to enshrine the two."

Xuan Yi said: "There is no need for worship. Don't run away, just rest where you are for the time being. When the two of us finish the matter, I will inform you."

Hearing this, everyone was grateful and kowtowed on the spot.Xuan Yi spoke earnestly for a long time before everyone got up.

He and Fan didn't stay any longer, and went straight to Quman Mountain.

The author has something to say:

Two chapters at most to end this short story.Originally, I planned to write about going to the Asura Gate to participate in the Four Realms Martial Arts, but the plot came here on its own, so I had to change the route and go to the Demon Realm first.
