History's first sorcerer

"Master, why are you here?"

"Are you here to see us?"

"Could it be, what happened?"

"Isn't my brother here?"

When Chen Huayu, Zishanjun, Ye Wei and Ying Yuchun saw Shi Wujiu, they blurted out different words.

"Don't be so anxious, I will answer you well." Seeing the four people who were safe and sound, Shi Wujiu showed a little smile on his face.If he went out in person, he would only bring out a few seriously injured or dead in the end, and he might not be able to hold his head up in front of Zhou Changyong for the rest of his life.

Shi Wujiu simply explained the matter without embellishing it, but even if he described it with the simplest words, it was enough to make the four of them feel great pressure.

"The situation in the realm of comprehension, we have also noticed that something is wrong." Zi Shanjun hesitated for a long time, but still said it, "It's just that we have too many worries, but we dare not leave here easily."

"Yi Zhichun, he...he doesn't look like a bad guy."

"Is there any misunderstanding in this?"

The most unacceptable of them may be Ye Wei himself.

In his opinion, Yi Zhichun was his great benefactor, but now Shi Wujiu told him that the person who planned to hunt down him and Wei Lianhuan at the beginning might also be Yi Zhichun.

It's nothing more than admitting a thief as a father.

"Chang Yong and I hope that all this is a misunderstanding more than you. It's a pity that Yi Zhichun admitted these in front of our faces. The evidence is solid and there is no possibility of fraud." Shi Wujiu sighed slightly, "If it wasn't for a little change in the middle, I am afraid that you will stay in this Liju willingly. We don't know how long it will take to find you."

"It's useless to say more, you should go back with me first." Shi Wujiu saw that their faces were a little unhappy, and he could probably understand their feelings, "When the time comes, you will naturally understand."

"it is good."

Shi Wujiu took the four of them back to Mount Tai Dojo without much effort.

Originally, he was still worried about whether Yi Zhichun would leave something behind here, but after thinking about it, now that he and Zhou Changyong knew what Yi Zhichun was doing, even if Yi Zhichun forced Chen Huayu and the others to Staying here seems to have no effect.

It just takes a little more time.

"Master!"

Gui Jiu had already arrived ahead of time, and the Feng siblings were still sitting beside him, apparently it was Feng who informed Gui Jiu of her current location carefully.

"The master hasn't returned yet, Master Shi, wait a moment." Feng Xixi took the initiative to meet Shi Wujiu.

"Okay." Shi Wujiu didn't worry too much, after all Zhou Changyong also has a lot of things to do, "Where's Ying Zhuchun? I brought his brother back."

"Brother Ying is refining ghost pills." Feng Xixi replied, "Before the master leaves, let us unite with spiritual cultivation to cause some trouble for the incarnations of immortals and demons in the mortal world. We are not good at descending, but we will send some pills There is still no problem in the lower realm. The world is full of wars and grievances. It is suitable for ghost cultivation. Maybe there are some qualified ones who can become ghost cultivators. We should send some ghost pills down, which should help a lot. "

Hearing the word "Ghost Pill", the eyes of Ying Yuchun and Chen Huayu lit up.

"Let's help too!"

For these two alchemists, nothing is more important than alchemy.

Ying Zhuchun's most powerful thing is the refining of ghost pills, and this is something that Ying Yuchun and Chen Huayu can't touch for the time being, so they will not let go of any chance to watch.

Feng Xixi pointed out the direction for the two of them, and continued to report to Shi Wujiu, "Some bad news has come recently. It is said that many of the disciples who were sent by the Yaohuang Palace and Fuxi Dojo to arrest people secretly defected. gone."

This is also understandable.

Whether it is a fairy or a demon, they don't have any saying that they are loyal, and only enough benefits can obtain their allegiance.Now, from their point of view, Yaohuang Palace and Fuxi Daoist Hall let them watch other people's progress hinder their progress, so betrayal seems justified.

"It's the Human Sovereign and the Demon Sovereign who can't control the situation." Shi Wujiu couldn't help curling his lips, "It's just like this now, in the past, how dare these people?"

When Shenzang and Shizhenghua became the Emperor of Man and Emperor of Demon, even if they wanted to say that the sun in the sky was square, others would not dare to point to the sky and say that the sun was round.

Feng Xixi didn't know how to answer this question for a while, so he could only respond with a smile.

"Okay, let's continue, what's the situation in the mortal world now?" Shi Wujiu didn't make things difficult for Feng Xixi, and continued to ask.

"Not very good." Feng carefully considered the words and sentences, and still gave such a conclusion, "I don't know the details, Master, you might as well read it yourself."

Shi Wujiu saw something from Feng Xixi's perplexed expression, so he didn't continue to ask any more questions, but let go of his spiritual sense directly to spy on the world.

Today's human world is different from what Shi Wu Jiu saw before.

The so-called one day in the sky, one year on the earth.

Shi Wujiu only went there for less than a day, but the situation in the mortal world is already very different from before.

The "immortal masters" already have different believers.

Almost all of them lurked around some powerful officials or princes and princes, constantly inciting internal strife, and the originally relatively strong national fortune began to disappear in the day-to-day struggle.

Once the fortunes of the country decline, the lives of ordinary people can be imagined.

Shi Wujiu's spiritual sense swept over ten cities in an instant, but what he saw was not that the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, on the contrary, almost all the people started hoarding dry food wantonly, even in clear sky and broad daylight, few people walked on the streets.Except for the rice and grain shop, which is still open, almost all other shops are closed.

The people subconsciously know that they may soon go to war with other countries, and everyone is panicked.

Many city gates have been closed, no longer accepting outsiders, but people from small towns desperately want to pour into those heavily guarded big cities.

Although the war has not yet started, there are already signs of national defeat.

Shi Wujiu observed some more remote places.

"Why are there still floods and droughts?" Shi Wujiu couldn't help asking, "Where are those spiritual cultivators, where did they go?"

"Floods, droughts, earthquakes, these are natural disasters for ordinary mortals, but for these incarnations of immortals and demons, they are just a few simple spells and spells." Vicissitudes.During these days of watching the world, she realized that her previous enmity was nothing at all.

At least she still has the ability to take revenge, but these mortals don't even know who their enemies are.

"The temples of those spiritual cultivators were almost destroyed." Feng Xixi was helpless, "The divine cultivators are not good at fighting, and when they found that the immortals wanted to cause these disasters, they would go to stop them, but there are so many of them. The power of the crowd, the spiritual cultivators can prevent it for a while, but they can't prevent it for a lifetime. When disasters come again and again, the faith of the believers will naturally weaken. Nowadays, many spiritual cultivators choose to take some believers to live in seclusion in the mountains to temporarily avoid the coming disaster. Chaos."

It's not that ghost cultivators and spiritual cultivators don't contribute much in the human world these days.

On the contrary, it is precisely because of their help that the current situation in the world is barely passable.

The combination of divine cultivation and ghost cultivation is less than one-tenth of that of the incarnations of immortals and demons. Even if they want to help, they are often really powerless.

"Nowadays, several powerful countries are preparing for war. Converted to our time, they will officially start in less than two days." Feng Xixi didn't know what to say, "Wang Pingruo, they go to mortals We have found some capable people from the ghosts, and plan to take in refugees when the time comes. However, this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. If this continues, the mortal world will probably become another realm of cultivation.”

"In the final analysis, we still have too few people."

"I remember that many monks in the cultivation world also fled to the mortal world." Zhou Changyong did not know when he returned to Shi Wujiu's side, "In this situation, those monks should also wake up. In the mortal world, the strength of those incarnations Far from reaching the point where they are unattainable, it is a good time for them to take revenge."

"Those monks were terrified when the cultivation world fell, and now they are almost hiding in inaccessible places." Feng Xiaolou said beside him, "Master, I'm afraid they won't be able to help much."

"When the world of comprehension was destroyed, they withdrew and fled to the human world. If the human world is also destroyed by these people, where can they escape?" Zhou Changyong sneered, "If they only want us to help, they just wait Why come to cultivate immortality when others come to save you? It’s better to just disperse and become a mortal.”

"Just pass on my order to let all the ghost soldiers and ghost servants in the book of life and death except the star ghost go find those monks. If they don't want to do it, they won't even think about cultivating immortals after the catastrophe is over!"

A heavy hammer is also used to sound the drum.

In the current situation, Zhou Changyong must unite all forces that can be united.

"In addition, let Wang Pingruo go to those mortal ghosts to find some officials who can fight wars and appease refugees. I think those 'immortal masters' are out of control and should have killed many insightful people. Those of us , far less understanding of the situation in the mortal world than these ghosts."

"But for ghosts..."

"I have the Book of the Dead." Zhou Changyong said first, "I can make them look like living people, enough for mortals to see."

"Yes!"

"Kong Shu, go to the Demon Palace for me, and let those grass and tree fairies who are not high enough to go to the world." Zhou Changyong paused and said, "It is best to be able to bear fruit and stimulate the growth of food." Monsters. In the national war, their military supplies must be an astonishing number, I am afraid that these people will collect food on the spot."

"Yes, Master."

"Meilan, Meihe, you guys go..."

Zhou Changyong began to order in an orderly manner.

Shi Wujiu looked at Zhou Changyong's command, didn't speak, but watched the performance of other star ghosts with great interest.

When Feng Xixi spoke to Shi Wujiu just now, his whole face was still listless, as if he didn't know how to act at all.But when Zhou Changyong came back, they seemed to have a backbone in an instant, and their whole people became radiant.

It seemed that as long as Zhou Changyong said, he could solve this crisis.

After Zhou Changyong had arranged work for everyone, he could take a short break.

"You seem to be very good at these things." Shi Wujiu couldn't help asking curiously, "Do people who practice cultivation know so many things?"

"It's just that I have seen a lot in the original world, so I naturally know what to do." Zhou Changyong's heart moved slightly, "If there is a chance in the future, I would like to take you there to see."

"Is it the other universe?" Shi Wujiu heard Zhou Changyong take the initiative to mention his origin for the first time, "Before I was born with wisdom, it seems that I was also a Daoist soldier of a Taoist ancestor in the other universe!"

"In our world, there are no monks." Zhou Changyong shook his head slowly, "Or there used to be, but then they disappeared."

"It's gone?" Shi Wujiu felt very strange, "How could it be gone?"

"Maybe... also experienced a catastrophe from the heavens." Zhou Changyong thought about it seriously, and replied, "I don't know exactly how. But, maybe when I open Huangquantian, I can I have glimpsed a trace of the mystery of heaven."

Zhou Changyong had always had a premonition in his heart.

If there were people who really had the so-called "world-destroying catastrophe" that Huang Xizhu said, then perhaps all the monks, all the immortals, demons, Buddhists, and Taoists would be wiped out.

"By the way, I rescued Chen Huayu and the others for you." Shi Wujiu didn't continue to entangle, and his face was a little smug, "I'm going out, everything is easy."

"It's natural." Zhou Changyong knew what he wanted to say when he saw Shi Wujiu's expression, "Wujiu is already a quasi-sage, so naturally nothing in the world can stop you."

"It's good that you know." Shi Wujiu was very proud.

"Wu Jiu, I will try to open Huang Quantian in the near future." Zhou Changyong took a deep breath, and suddenly said to Shi Wu Jiu, "You have seen the situation in the world now, it can't be too late."

"...When?" Shi Wujiu did not intend to stop Zhou Changyong, because since Zhou Changyong got the book of life and death, this is what Zhou Changyong must do.

It's just that those words Chongming said before always reappear in Shi Wujiu's mind from time to time.

After opening Huangquantian, will Zhou Changyong really die?

No, not possible.

"Within ten days at the latest. I estimate that the world can only endure ten years of war at most." Zhou Changyong gave a number.

"Will ten days be too late?" Shi Wujiu frowned.

"If it takes longer, I'm afraid there won't be many mortals left in the world." Zhou Changyong also felt that time was a little rushed, but this kind of disaster would increase countless casualties every day, so he could only do his best.

"Okay, I'll help you." Shi Wujiu didn't think about it any more, "With me here, at least I can help you resist a wave of Huang Quantian's death. Moreover, I'm probably the only one who wants to get infinitely close to Huang Quantian's place. Only a quasi-sage will do."

Otherwise, it would take a lot of time just to hurry.

"Wu Jiu, this might be very dangerous." Zhou Changyong looked at Shi Wu Jiu twice, feeling a little reluctance in his heart.

"Joke, can I be afraid?" Shi Wujiu was complacent for a while, then the expression on his face became serious.

Shi Wujiu pulled Zhou Changyong's hands over and held them tightly, his voice trembling slightly, "The last time was also very dangerous, I waited for you for a long time, until I couldn't hold on any longer, I could only lie in the coffin with you You are right, lying in a coffin after death is not good, and I don't want to wait for you again."

Zhou Changyong met Shi Wujiu's eyes.

Under Shi Wujiu's seemingly solid defense, what is hidden is only a sincere heart that worries about gains and losses.

My death last time really gave him a great psychological shadow.

Shi Wujiu didn't say anything, but Zhou Changyong knew that Shi Wujiu didn't have to go through this hurdle in his heart.

Changing places, if he watched Shi Wujiu die, maybe he might not be able to keep calm.

There are not many things in their hearts, and every time they lose something, it is an unbearable pain.

"It won't happen this time." Zhou Changyong pulled Shi Wujiu tightly into his arms, "I promise, I will live well."

Chen Huayu, Zi Shanjun and Ye Wei sat together at the same time.

After they were rescued, they already knew their next path.

"Why are you back?" Chen Huayu couldn't help but look at Wang Ping and said weakly, "You should go find those mortal ghosts."

"We've almost found them. They have names and surnames. It's easy to find them with the power of the book of life and death." Wang Pingruo found a place and sat down next to them, "Master is sorry to come to see you, but I can understand you." Now I’m thinking, so I took the initiative to apply.”

"Come to see us die?" Chen Huayu said with a mean mouth, "But don't worry, we have already prepared for it. Besides, you will know that it is just a change of body. There is nothing wrong with Zhou Changyong. If you want to open the underworld, you will become a saint in the future. We can hold such a thigh tightly, but it is a good thing that others can't ask for. You are now at the ghost level. Once I become a star ghost , I can equalize with you immediately, which saves me a lot of time in cultivation!"

"Although everything is a good thing to say, becoming a star ghost means that you no longer belong to yourself." Wang Pingruo said seriously, "Zhou Changyong is a very good master, he gave us great freedom. But No matter how big the space of freedom is, it still doesn’t belong to me after all.”

"...I'm the one who decided to become a star ghost, is it really okay for you to say this?" Chen Huayu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"In the eyes of others, a good thing that you can't ask for, I know, in our eyes, it may not be so attractive." Wang Ping sighed weakly, "If the owner of the book of life and death is not Zhou Changyong, even if others tell me it is me I must also resist my destiny. If my cultivation base is not high, I can practice on my own; if my fate is rough, I can rely on the sword in my hand to cross it; My generation of monks seeks a long life and a happy life, and if we violate this point, wouldn’t it be completely contrary to what we wanted at the beginning?"

Chen Huayu, Zi Shanjun, and Ye Wei all fell silent at the same time.

That's right, if the owner of the Book of Life and Death hadn't been Zhou Changyong, they wouldn't have become star ghosts so obediently.

Who wants to be controlled by others for the rest of their lives?

But they have seen the chaos in the world of comprehension, the suffering of so many mortals in the mortal world, and also seen Zhou Changyong and Shi Wujiu, two people who should be able to live more freely than anyone else, but they are constantly running around in this world. Among things, less gathering and more separation.

They are also the creatures of the nine heavens and ten realms, and they should have a share in the catastrophe that descended from the heavens.

If they take this as nothing and don't care about the lives of those creatures at all, then they may not be able to face their conscience directly in the rest of their lives.

At the end of the practice, if you lose your own heart, it is better to kill yourself early.

"My ancestors, as mountain gods, sacrificed themselves to gain merits and virtues in order to protect us younger generations. It makes no sense that now, as a descendant, I don't help, but enjoy the protection of others with peace of mind." Purple Mountain Jun suddenly laughed. , "I have already asked Fellow Daoist Ying Yuchun to refine a few pills for us. There is no pain after eating, and I can sit down soon. But I don't have a physical body. As long as I lose my cultivation, I can directly It will be more difficult for the two of you to become a star ghost."

Ye Wei was taken aback when he heard this, "Master, do you remember the past?"

Wei Lianhuan's ancestors were the things of the mountain gods, and he remembered that he hadn't told Zishanjun about it.

"Although I can't remember some things, it doesn't mean I won't look into them." Zi Shanjun glanced at Ye Wei, "I've already suffered from one apprentice, and I've accepted another apprentice, how could I not look into it carefully?" What about checking?"

It's just that he deliberately pretended not to know.

Wei Lianhuan and Ye Xiao are a thing of the past, and now only Zi Shan Jun and Ye Wei are left.

Since Ye Wei also chose to change his name and surname, why should he bring up the past?

"Master, what you say makes me feel a little embarrassed." Ye Wei smiled, "But wherever you go, Master, I will naturally go there. If it wasn't for Zhou Daoyou, I would have died in right and wrong. And because of me , causing us to be used by Yi Zhichun. If I don’t come to repay, I’m afraid I’m an ungrateful villain in your eyes, Master.”

"It's okay to be ungrateful, but if you really do that, I will probably look down on you."

"Then in order not to let Master look down on me, I have to work hard."

"Okay, okay." Chen Huayu trembled, and hugged his arms tightly, "Are you two finished? Zishan Jun, what about the elixir you just mentioned, give me one quickly, let me try it myself, At that time, I guarantee that I will be able to practice a better one. Hey, by the way, if I become a star ghost, will I be able to refine ghost pills?"

"Here." Zi Shanjun took out a bottle of elixir.

"I'll come first!" Chen Huayu poured out a elixir first, and swallowed it without giving himself a chance to hesitate.

"Again, it's fine for you guys to become star ghosts. I don't think my fate is too rough. Why am I also a star ghost?" Chen Huayu had already made a decision, but he was a little calm at the moment.

"If you hadn't met Zhou Changyong back then, I'm afraid you would have become one of Madam Caiyun's dead souls." Wang Ping glanced weakly at Chen Huayu and said, "With your personality, even if you escaped from Madam Caiyun by chance, I'm afraid It won't be any better than Ying Zhuchun."

"...You put it that way, we can't be friends anymore." Chen Huayu coughed twice, feeling that the immortal energy in his body dissipated quickly.

"At that time, I must ask how the elixir was made." Chen Huayu's eyes gradually lost their luster, and he lay down on the table. "I feel a little sleepy. I need to sleep for a while..."
