Chapter 56 Extra Story: It seems that an old friend is coming
In the ghost town of Fengdu, the moon is bright and clear tonight, misty and rainy.
It seems that there is an old friend coming.
The bricks and stones on the ground were wet, stained with mossy dark green, the quaint and deep street was covered with rain and mist, and a man in white stood among the large red oil-paper umbrellas.
He is very clean, not only in terms of appearance, but also in temperament.
It seems that it is incompatible with the rainy and lonely scene in the ghost town.
Ghost cultivators have always been very sensitive to the smell of living people, but at this moment, even if they sensed that a stranger had entered, they did not dare to go forward, instead they took a detour.
Yun Yan didn't hold an umbrella, the strange rain fell in the city, and a slight white mist formed on him.
Small, but not entirely without impact.
From nowhere, a white paper umbrella fell and hit Yun Yan's chest, accompanied by a familiar voice: "I have spent 20 years nourishing your soul, and you are here in the rain? I don't want to live until now." Say, I'll do it myself."
Although Yun Yan was reprimanded, he didn't show any signs of getting angry.
He raised his hand to open the white paper umbrella, showed some innocent eyes, and said, "I don't want to get caught in the rain either, but I just forgot my way."
"..." At the other end of the sound transmission, Ji Guichen secretly gritted his teeth, "Turn right, go straight, go up."
"Okay." Yun Yan was holding a white umbrella, wearing white clothes under the umbrella, almost blending with the moonlight in the sky.
He walked towards Fengdu's palace, and no ghost dared to stop him along the way.
In the hall, Ji Guichen stood in front of the window, with a half-read scroll on the table behind him.
He knew that Yun Yan had come in, but he didn't look back, he just said: "Why don't you stay in Chong Hua Sect well, what are you doing here? The little devils in Fengdu can't bear this immortal energy."
"Sorry, I'll pay attention next time."
Ji Guichen knocked on the window sill, dissatisfied with Yun Yan's evasive answer: "I hope there will be no next time, so why are you here?"
Yun Yan took two steps forward, stood next to Ji Guichen, and said in a relaxed tone, "Hey, don't be angry, I came with good news."
"Good news?" Ji Guichen finally turned sideways and asked.
"Well." Yun Yan said solemnly, "I bet you at the beginning that Shang Qing can not only cultivate immortality like ordinary people, but also stand at the top of the immortal way."
Ji Guichen squinted at him.
They had indeed made such a bet, but in the circumstances back then, it was more like a quarrel.
As for the reason, it involves another matter, and the time has to be pushed forward.
In the past, there were endless wars in Kyushu. At that time, the Xuanyuan Dynasty could not be called a dynasty, but just one of more than a dozen vassal states.Later, the founding monarch of the Xuanyuan Dynasty asked the Yan family to forge a sword to help the world.
The surname Ji is the national surname of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, and Ji Guichen is the ninth son of the founding monarch. When casting the Sword of Ji Shi, he poured half of his blood into it, so the sword is like his own blood and blood, naturally close.
Ji Guichen took the sword of helping the world, fought in all directions, killed tens of thousands of people, and collected 10 cities.
From then on, Kyushu was unified, and there was no more fighting.
In the final battle outside the city of Youzhou, Ji Guichen, with more than [-] men under his command, defeated the enemy's [-] troops miserably, and Wanguyuan on the border of Youzhou came from this.
However, in his life, after all, the killing was too heavy and the resentment was too deep.
Ji Guichen was finally killed by Tianlei, and was buried under the Abyss of Thousands of Bones, and the sword of Jishi in his hand also fell.
There are as many as 20 corpses under Wanguyuan, resentful souls are everywhere, and fierce ghosts are rampant.But Ji Guichen killed countless people all over his body, turned into a ghost, and can still control all ghosts, making them bow their heads for them and offer them their encouragement.
Wanguyuan is an extremely evil place, but a plant of natural resources and earthly treasures, the Asura Bone Flower, was born.
Ji Guichen refined it with his spirit, was able to regain his body, and became the master of the ghost domain.
As for the sword of aiding the world, its real name is "Tai Shang Ru Qing".
This sword first fought with Ji Guichen for half a lifetime, killing countless people, and then fell into the abyss of bones together with Ji Guichen, fighting out among thousands of resentful souls.This is a rare fairy artifact, but it has long been soaked in blood and filled with resentment.
So under the Thousand Ghosts Abyss, this sword not only transformed into a sword spirit, but also was influenced by Shura Bone Flower, and was reborn and shaped into a human being like Ji Guichen.
Therefore, Shang Qing's name is actually a homonym of the name of the sword.
At that time, Shang Qing had just turned into a human being, and he was still an ignorant and ignorant child on the outside and inside, and his behavior was still the same as the sword in the past, and the killing was full of ferocity.
It wasn't until eight years later that Ji Guichen's former friend Yun Yan found Wanguyuan.
Yun Yan had already gone through a catastrophe at that time, and the Mahayana period was almost complete, and gradually he could get a glimpse of the way of heaven.He knew very well that if Ji Guichen and Shang Qing were allowed to stay together, with such a heavy killing resentment, they would surely incur another divine punishment.
So Yun Yan took Shang Qing away, even though Ji Guichen disagreed, the two still quarreled over it.
But Yun Yan still brought Shang Qing back to the Chong Hua Sect, and stripped off the resentful and violent part of him, and reforged a long sword, which was the later delusion.
As a result, Shang Qing was able to practice immortality and enter Taoism like ordinary people, with joy, anger, sorrow, joy, emotions and desires.
Also because he was transformed by the Sword of Jishi, he is extremely talented and has an innate sword body, and his journey of sword cultivation is extremely smooth.
"Did you come here on purpose to tell me that I lost the bet? What kind of good news is this?" Ji Guichen recalled the bet. The pinnacle of immortality.
Unexpectedly, Yun Yan was ingenious and directly stripped the negative part of Shang Qing, and forged another sword.
Yun Yan shook his head, with a coquettish and free-spirited chuckle on the corner of his mouth, he said: "No, I lost. Although Shang Qing did cultivate immortality, in the end, he himself gave up the ruthless way, and he also gave up standing on the immortal way. The chance to be at the top. My words have only been fulfilled, so I still count as a loser.”
Hearing this, Ji Guichen suddenly raised his eyebrows, he was a little confused about what Yun Yan wanted to do.
After all, Yun Yan's rhetoric can be regarded as a bit forceful and unreasonable.
Although he is trying to find fault with himself with strong words, it is really incomprehensible.
But Ji Guichen refused to admit defeat, so he snorted and said, "I've never seen someone who is so eager to admit defeat like you. That's fine, I don't want more of you—ten jade veins, even if You paid off the bet."
Yun Yan pretended to be sad, and sighed: "Now I have handed over the order of Zixiao. I am neither the elder of Chonghua Sect nor the peak master of Longyuan Peak. I am alone and alone. Can you afford so much money?"
Seeing him like that, Ji Guichen was angry and wanted to laugh: "Then why did you come all the way to admit defeat?"
"What you said is wrong. Although a person is poor, he cannot owe debts." Yun Yan suddenly leaned forward, and the sorrow on his face just now disappeared as if his face changed, leaving only a breezy smile.
Ji Guichen instinctively stepped back, but found that this position didn't seem right.
The screen and window frame behind him blocked the way, and Yun Yan's face was too close in front of him, and there was nowhere to go for a while.
He heard Yun Yan say.
"So after much deliberation, I can only pay myself to you."
The corner of Ji Guichen's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to pull Yun Yan in front of him aside.He was able to walk out from the position just now, and then said indifferently: "No need, you should pay me the jade vein."
Yun Yan was not annoyed, and took a few steps forward, grabbing Ji Guichen's wrist: "Oh, really don't want it? I'm number one in the world anyway, much more valuable than Yumai."
Ji Guichen struggled a bit, but he didn't break free.He glared at Yun Yan: "Why are you so crazy today?"
"I'm not crazy." Yun Yan's expression suddenly became serious, he looked into Ji Guichen's eyes, "We've known each other for hundreds of years, can't you tell if I'm serious or joking?"
Ji Guichen originally wanted to laugh at him, but in the end he was stunned by his expression.
After a long silence, the original words were swallowed back, and what came out became another sentence: "I am a ghost cultivator, and I will never become a saint forever."
But Yun Yanneng, if someone hadn't plotted against him back then, Yun Yan would have been a sage of heaven.
Yun Yan didn't care, he looked far away, and said softly: "The way of heaven is lonely, I'm afraid I can't bear it alone. So let the young people do the work of sanctification."
