Strange Tales: The Yin-Yang Celestial Master

Qi Buyang secretly looked at the leader. He was very tall, about 1.9 meters tall. He didn't know whether he should be strong or fat. In short, he was very tall, standing there like a hill.The head is round, with short hair like a steel needle, and the arms are thicker than the thighs of the little celestial master, not to mention the legs like iron pillars, but this is such a giant, holding his chin at this moment , The expression on his face was like seeing a ghost.

"Lord Luo, why are you here?"

Luo Lang raised his eyebrows unkindly: "Why, I can't come?"

The brawny man immediately put on a flattering face, and the transformation process can be clearly seen with the naked eye, "No, no, no one dares to say no! Of course you are welcome when you come!"

"Really." Luo Lang pointed lightly at the vice president who was flaunting his might before, "He asked me to wait for you here."

The leader glared at the dumbfounded vice president, "How can you treat Mr. Luo like this? Hurry up and give up your seat!"

"But, but..." The vice president hadn't reacted yet, and couldn't accept it: "Isn't he just a human being, and his attitude is still very bad..."

"Who told you that you are human?!" The leader interrupted him, and immediately understood why Luo Lang's tone sounded weird just now. He was about to be pissed off by these idiots. Who didn't know that Luo Lang was moody and angered him now? , he can crush everyone here to death.Thinking of this, the leader gave the vice president a hard look, and quickly apologized: "They don't know Taishan, and they offended Mr. Luo, please forgive me."

Luo Lang looked disinterested and didn't express his opinion.

The leader broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said, "Master Luo must have worked so hard to come here for something important, how about we go inside and talk, so I can tell you what I know." He looked eagerly at Luo Lang, I hope this god can save him a little face in front of his subordinates.

Luo Lang thought for a while, and finally nodded unhappy.The leader was eager to please him, saw him hugging a teddy bear, stretched out his hand like a dog's leg, and said, "Is this your luggage? I'll carry it for you."

Before his fingers touched the little bear, he received Luo Lang's cold gaze that could kill people, "Who allows you to touch him?"

The leader felt cold, retracted his hand like an electric shock, said "sorry" awkwardly, and walked to the front to lead the way, "Please follow me."

It was only after they left that the vice president came back to his senses. He was ashamed in front of so many people. He was angry and anxious, "What is the background of that person? Why is the boss so afraid of him?"

If you are present, look at me, and I look at you, but no one can answer.

"Also, who told me he is human?!"

The two little ghosts raised their hands reluctantly, "He said he came from the world, we thought..."

"I thought I thought it! I thought it was okay without asking clearly! Wait for the boss to come back and see how he deals with you!"

It was you and not us who made the boss angry... The two little devils were thinking in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it, so they had to bear the anger transferred by the vice president aggrievedly.

The leader of the giant led Luo Lang to a small room at the back of the hall, and while he turned around and walked in, Qi Buyang secretly asked, "Mr. Luo, who is he?"

Unexpectedly, Luo Lang said without thinking, "I don't know."

Although the little celestial master deliberately lowered the volume, Luo Lang did not hide it at all. Their words were naturally heard by the leader, and he was a little embarrassed. He cast a surprised glance at the talking teddy bear, and did not dare to say anything. What, I had to smile dryly and smooth things over by myself: "It's normal for Mr. Luo not to know me, a small person like me."

"En." Luo Lang actually nodded in agreement, and told Qi Buyang: "You heard that."

"..." The leader had no choice but to introduce himself: "My name is Shan Kui, and I have admired Lord Luo for a long time. You were originally a small god, but later you left the God Realm and went to the Demon Realm. This incident greatly shocked the Three Realms. To be honest, I'm quite envious, so... I followed you and ran to the Demon Realm." He blushed, and said very embarrassedly: "But it still didn't attract much attention. I stayed in the Demon Realm for a while, and I heard that there are hidden monsters in the abyss. I came in because of the mystery of the origin, I didn't expect to be trapped here, hundreds of years have passed since I was trapped, and I don't know what the outside world says, didn't you say anything bad about me, did you?"

Mr. Luo, who had not read books or newspapers for a long time and didn't even know people's names, comforted him without thinking: "Don't worry, they didn't say anything, and no one probably knows."

"..." Shan Kui lowered his face in frustration.

Qi Buyang felt a little sympathetic to him, and gently tugged on Luo Lang's sleeve, signaling him not to hit the poor man again, Luo Lang understood, and said generously to him, "Do you want to sign?"

What?The big man's face was full of question marks, and he couldn't keep up with his thinking.

Luo Lang became impatient, "Don't you worship me? Want me to sign your autograph for you?"

Shan Kui made an embarrassing face, but did not dare to refuse, looked around, and said in embarrassment: "But there is no pen here, or..." Forget it, but the word "forget" has not been uttered, Luo Lang's arms The bear raised his hand enthusiastically and said: "I should have a pen here!" Then he tried his best to dig out and dig out the small bag on his body, and actually took out a watercolor pen for him.

"..." Shan Kui's face was wrinkled. He seriously suspected that these two people came all the way here just to torture him.

Perhaps because he had been with Luo Lang for a long time, Qi Buyang didn't even notice Shan Kui's distorted expression, and he wanted to help him fulfill his wish by giving Luo Lang that watercolor pen.

"Where is the signature?" Luo Lang opened the pen cap and asked.

Of course there is no such luxury as paper in the abyss, Shan Kui wanted to refuse at first, but when he glanced at Luo Lang, he immediately understood the words "Yangyang finally found a pen, why don't you hurry up, are you ignorant?" Meaning, so he gritted his teeth, stretched out his arms and said, "That's it, I can see it anytime."

Luo Lang frantically wrote down his name and handed the pen to Qi Buyang, "You sign one too."

"Eh? Can I do it too?" Little Bear looked at Shan Kui expectantly.

Shan Kui nodded silently, crying in his heart.

So it happily took the watercolor pen, only to realize that it had no fingers, and it was in a dilemma. Luo Lang grabbed it, and together with its furry hand, wrote the three characters "Qi Buyang" stroke by stroke, After thinking about it, I drew a sheep bleating on the back.

"One family." Luo Lang looked at his work and said with satisfaction.

Little Bear buried his head in shame and crawled back into his arms, peeking at the two signatures secretly, feeling very happy again.

Are my biceps a canvas for your affection? ! ! !Shan Kui, who was roaring in his heart, put down his hands expressionlessly, and calmly changed the subject: "What is the reason for Master Luo's trip?"

"Do you know the tree of life in the abyss?" Luo Lang asked, "Where is it?"

Shan Kui shook his head, "There is no tree of life here at all... Let alone a tree of life, there is no life. I have been here for nearly 500 years, and everywhere I go is the magma outside, without any life energy." Surviving in this environment, even if we are the body of gods and demons, we will be melted by it."

But Luo Lang remembered the gossip of the two little ghosts on the road before, "What happened to the lava waterfall you went to?"

"It's the end there." Shan Kui explained: "In the deepest part of the underground world, magma will fall from the top of the cave and flow into the lower abyss, forming a waterfall. But there can't be a tree of life there. The temperature is higher, the sulfur smell is so strong that it can be regarded as poisonous gas, and there is a sea of ​​fire below, all of which are hot gas from magma. I went there once, and I couldn’t stand it when I got close to it, and I was burned by the steam.”

When Luo Lang heard this, his complexion was not very good. Could it be that this was another trip in vain?

Shan Kui said in a low voice: "I gathered all the people who came to the abyss and formed a self-help association for exiles. I just wanted to use everyone's strength to find a way out. The lava waterfall is a dead end. I think the only way out is ours. The entrance that came in. Frankly speaking, it's great that you can come!" Speaking of this, he was visibly excited, and even a little eager to try, "With your strength, we will definitely be able to get out soon! We have been trapped here for so long , It's so boring!"

Luo Lang refused without thinking: "I'm here to find the fruit of life, and I won't go out until I find it."

Shan Kui's face changed, and he persuaded: "That's just a legend. There is really no tree of life here, and it may have been swallowed up by magma long ago. When I first came here, it didn't suffer like this, but in the past 100 years, the temperature It is getting higher and higher, the air is getting more and more turbid, the situation in the abyss is deteriorating, and the tree of life cannot survive."

Luo Lang frowned and said nothing.Qi Buyang raised his head and looked at him, "Mr. Luo." Hearing the voice of the little celestial master, Luo Lang's expression improved a little. He patted the little bear on the head and said to Shan Kui, "Take me to the waterfall."

"It's dangerous there!" Shan Kui felt terrified when he thought of that scene, and tried to persuade him to dispel the idea, "It's possible that you won't be able to come back after you go!"

Luo Lang glanced at him indifferently, "If you are afraid, just point me in the direction, and I will go by myself."

Shan Kui choked for a moment, feeling ashamed, thought for a while, and said: "...how about this, you stay and wait. Now it's raining outside, which means that the waterfall is not calm. It rains twice a day. When it stops, I'll take you there."

Luo Lang agreed.Shan Kui took them back to the hall and asked them to play something to pass the time.

"There are chess, go, poker, and mahjong here. You can play whatever you want."

It was only then that Qi Buyang noticed that the tables in the hall were all engraved with chessboards, with a full set of stone chess pieces on them. As for the poker cards, they were polished with very thin stone flakes, and the suits were carved on them. What amazes me is the set of mahjong, which is made of tofu-sized stones, and the patterns and colors are clearly engraved. Although it is still relatively rough, it is already a rare boutique in an environment like the abyss.

"Did you do all of these?" the little celestial master asked in admiration.

"Of course!" Shan Kui is very proud, "In the past 500 years, I have not achieved nothing. It took me ten years to paint this mahjong!"

Luo Lang sneered: "You really have plenty of time."

"Want to play?" Shan Kui strongly recommended the pair of carefully crafted mahjong tiles.

Luo Lang asked the little bear in his arms, "What do you want to play with?"

Qi Buyang was in a dilemma, and told him in a low voice embarrassedly: "But I don't know how to..."

Shan Kui also heard it, and immediately said: "It doesn't matter if you don't! Come, come, let me teach you!"

Luo Lang glared at him, "Do you want to teach me?"

"Yes yes yes." Shan Kui hurriedly responded dog-leggedly: "Master Luo is here, of course we don't need outsiders." Then he walked over to drive away the four people who originally occupied the mahjong table—in fact, as soon as they appeared Everyone's attention was attracted in the hall, but they were afraid of being scolded by the leader, so they pretended to be playing quietly, but in fact they had already straightened their ears to listen. Seeing that they were also coming to play, they gathered around.And among the four people who were kicked out while playing, the former vice president was included.

Mahjong tiles are the most labor-intensive. Not only does it take time, but it also takes time to find suitable stones and polish them bit by bit. Therefore, there is only one set in the whole self-help club. Usually this table is occupied by high-level people like them. Only when they get tired of playing will they give it up to others, but now they are driven away without explanation, especially as the vice president, they can't help but feel that they can't step down.

"Boss, why do you want to let him play as soon as he comes?"

Shan Kui slapped him on the head, "How dare you complain, how lucky Master Luo is to come, you know what a fart!"

The vice president was scolded embarrassingly, although he was dissatisfied, he had to obediently get out of the way.When passing by Shan Kui, he found the pattern on his arm, "Boss, when did you get a tattoo yourself?" The vice president frowned and looked at the sheep bleating carefully for a while, "A pattern of shit What means?"

Shan Kui's face was red, and he said bravely, "What do you know, everyone is talking about this now!"

"It's too strange!" The vice president said he couldn't understand.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about that," Shan Kui abruptly changed the subject, "Let's play cards!"

As a result, after they sat down, they called the vice president back to play with them.Luo Lang was naturally with Qi Buyang's family, the little celestial master looked at him and asked him: "How do we play this?"

Luo Lang replied without thinking, "I don't know."

"...Don't you know?"

Luo Lang shrugged, "No. But I know how to win."

The little celestial master blinked his curious eyes, "How to win?"

Luo Lang pushed down the cards in front of him, "Nonsense."

The vice president who was sitting next to him twitched his temple, glanced at his cards, and felt that he had caught the handle, "Hey, do you know how to play? How can this be nonsense!"

Luo Lang didn't change his face, "I think everyone else won like this."

Shan Kui wanted to raise his head to take a look, but when he heard what he said, he quickly winked at the vice-chairman, "If Mr. Luo says nonsense, then he is nonsense! Stop talking nonsense!"

"...Oh." The vice president held back his breath reluctantly. The loser had to polish the stone for a week. He had never suffered such a loss. Luo Lang scolded completely.

Unknowingly, they fought for a long time, and Luo Lang continued to win for no reason. Qi Buyang persisted in watching for a while, and now he started to yawn in his arms.When the vice president, who was losing almost every game, finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to quit, Luo Lang spoke first: "Should the rain stop?"

Shan Kui was taken aback, noticed the dozing teddy bear, and suggested: "Don't be in a hurry today, you just arrived, I think this bear is also tired, why don't you go to sleep first, there is a bed in the next room, Wait until you wake up?"

Luo Lang glanced at the listless little celestial master. Ever since they jumped into the abyss, their nerves had been tense and they hadn't relaxed much. It's not easy anymore.After making up his mind to let the little celestial master sleep well, he nodded in agreement readily.

Shan Kui gave them his bedroom. He said it was a bedroom, but it was actually just a spacious stone cave with a stone bed chiseled inside, without even cotton wadding.Luo Lang put the little bear on his body as a human skin mattress, and the teddy bear lay on his chest in a daze. He woke up for a while, and seemed to be thinking about something, so he leaned into his ear and said without opening his eyes: "Mr. Luo, I think there is something wrong with that Shankui. He doesn't seem to want to take us to the lava waterfall at all."

Luo Lang nodded, patted his butt, and said softly, "Sleep first."

The little celestial master was exhausted, and fell asleep again after nodding his head halfway.
