Exorcism - Chapter 1083 Doing, speaking and thinking
The sacrifices on the ground fell in pieces, and the giants in the sky fell and shattered like collapsed icebergs. Angry and shrill screams resounded throughout the city, stirring up gusts of wind.
Mu Lie hugged the wall tightly, with a string of earth monkeys floating in the air connected to his body. With the protection of the magic robe, he could barely withstand the attack of the strong wind. There were more magic weapons around Yin Buchen, and he had one With his hands pressed against the city wall, his feet could finally stand on the ground.
“You still say you can’t see it with the naked eye?” Mu Lie said loudly. Even he knew that this was a fighting method. He could see clearly, hear clearly, and feel strongly.
“This is just an appearance, you haven’t seen the real fighting style!” Yin Buchen replied loudly, refusing to admit that he was wrong before.
Mu Lie was convinced and asked: “Are those soldiers on the ground dead or alive?”
Although the strong wind was strong, it could not blow the sacrificers. Almost all of them fell down, their clothes fluttered in the wind, and the idols in their hands were swept away by the wind, but they remained motionless.
“Uh… they will definitely not die. Tao Zun and Taoist Qin are protecting them.” Yin Buchen was a little confused, but he didn’t believe that Mu Xingqiu would really ignore the lives of 90,000 people.
The screams disappeared, the strong wind stopped, and the giant became completely transparent, leaving only a thin layer of shadow. Yin Buchen could still see it, but Mu Lie really couldn’t see the giant. What he noticed was another One thing, “Those soldiers…are gone!”
Yin Buchen was still observing the shadow of the giant. After hearing this, he looked down and saw that the sacrificers lying in the formation were disappearing one after another. One on this side and one on the other side. There was no pattern at all. Yin Buchen rubbed it. Eyes, “Tao Zun…what do you want to do?”
The morning light showed slightly on the horizon, and as soon as the first ray of sunlight hit, the Patriarch Tower immediately lost its light and returned to its ordinary appearance. The Cihuang and the White Staff in the top tower were gone. The sacrificers disappeared even faster. Not long after, only a large forest of wooden piles and broken statues were left inside and outside Duanliu City. There was no one left in the forest, and even thousands of soldiers who were not the sacrificers disappeared. It was so clean that the entire Holy Talisman Army seemed to have never appeared.
The monkeys are not surprised by strange things. Once they feel safe, they immediately disperse and pick up idols everywhere.
Mu Lie opened his mouth wide and said after a while: “Did Mu Xingqiu do this?”
Yin Buchen also opened his mouth wide, nodded, and then shook his head. He could not guess what Mu Xingqiu was thinking, nor could he clearly see his magic, so he was quite troubled.
A person ran out of the Patriarch’s Tower, it was the white-haired Emperor Ci. His hands were empty and his expression was extremely horrified. He looked around, pinched his face with his hands, and kicked the statues on the ground. He couldn’t understand what was happening in front of him. Suddenly he He screamed again, not a scream, but the roar of someone angry and desperate.
“The emperor is really crazy.” Yin Buchen led Mu Lie and the monkeys to jump off the city wall and walked towards the Patriarch Tower.
Cihuang turned a blind eye to the approaching man, roared for a while, knelt down and crawled on the ground, picked up the statue, and threw it away after one glance. The monkeys thought it was a game, and they all ran over to grab the statue thrown out by Cihuang.
“What is he doing again?” Mu Lie asked quietly.
“Looking for the white staff.” Yin Buchen looked at Mu Xingqiu who was coming around from behind the Patriarch’s Tower, feeling an inexplicable fear in his heart, “Hey, Taoist Master… you are even more powerful than before after losing your memory. You can kill him with just one spell.” Emperor Ci and his 100,000-strong army were completely wiped out. With this ability, it is no problem to defeat Zuo Liuying. Even if he can deal with Kun Chaos, he is somewhat confident, right?”
“It’s a pity that there are still some omissions.” Mu Xingqiu looked at Ci Huang, with no joy of victory on his face.
“Aren’t you satisfied with missing one?” Yin Buchen burst into tears, feeling both awe and jealousy.
“An omission is a flaw. I am not Zuo Liuying’s opponent, let alone Kun Chaos.”
Yin Buchen’s compliments were not sincere, and he stopped uttering um um um ah ah ah ah .
Mu Lie stepped forward and said, “Where have you taken everyone?”
Mu Xingqiu pointed to the Patriarch Tower.
If he hadn’t witnessed a giant appearing in the sky and more than 90,000 soldiers disappearing on the spot, Mu Lie would never have believed that the Zushi Tower could hold so many people. Now he still can’t understand it, but he has to accept, “Are they still alive?”
“They entered another world, whether they were alive or dead – it’s hard to say.
Mu Lie was even more confused, but he didn’t ask because he didn’t know where to start.
Yin Buchen slowly understood, “Does the Tao Master regard the Patriarch’s Tower as a soul-detaining device? But it is really a great innovation for you to be able to detain your physical body inside.”
“This is not a pioneering work. It is originally one of the greatest uses of Taoist treasures. Therefore, the Demon-Suppressing Bell can seal demon species, and the Demon-pulling Cave can be used to imprison prisoners.”
“So that’s it.” Yin Buchen looked at the Patriarch’s Tower and said infatuatedly: “The treasure is indeed the most treasure…” He shook his head vigorously, “I’m such a fool, I actually thought about what it would be like to own the Patriarch’s Tower. He It’s a role model.”
Yin Buchen took a deep breath, “The Taoist treasure is indeed powerful, but only the equally powerful user can operate it freely, otherwise it will only harm himself. I understand, Tao Zun has not used any of his moves. You can let the emperor do whatever he wants. He didn’t have the ability to use the Patriarch Tower, and instead used his own power in it. Haha, it’s insidious.”
The word “insidious” was a real compliment in Yin Buchen’s mouth. As soon as he finished speaking, he was a little confused, “A hundred thousand troops have entered, why is the emperor himself still outside?”
“Because he doesn’t want to go to ‘another world’, his will to stay is too strong, and the Patriarch Tower cannot change it.”
Yin Buchen nodded with approval, and the sympathy for Emperor Ci in Mu Lie’s heart suddenly disappeared. “He made everyone believe that there is a ‘world of ancient gods after death’, but he didn’t believe it at all?”
“Only people who really want to ‘live’ will spare no effort to ‘persuad’ others to believe in death.” Mu Xingqiu said.
Mu Lie looked at Yin Buchen, hoping to get a clearer explanation from him.
“You don’t understand this? The army is the emperor’s power. Without the army, he is like this. In order to keep the army, he is willing to do anything. Whatever the soldiers are willing to listen to, he will naturally say what he said. Since everyone thinks that this world Without hope, he made up an afterlife. In short, he wanted everyone to stay with him. He didn’t want to die, and his power was in this world.”
Yin Buchen suddenly let out a long oh, “Lao Jun is also the same kind of person. I think back when he persuaded the demon clan to fight against humans, he himself was never willing to directly participate. He would rather teach demons and give magical weapons… to true believers. At least do something, but hypocrites will only say it, and when they have to do it, they will reveal the truth, just like this emperor.”
Yin Buchen found it very interesting and pointed at Mu Lie, “You are considered a true believer because you don’t say much, but you dare to come to Zuo Liuying for revenge alone, but you don’t think too much and don’t know what you are doing. , the same kind of people as those soldiers who willingly die.”
Mu Lie scratched his head, not sure whether it was a compliment or a sarcasm.
Yin Buchen bowed to Mu Xingqiu, “Dao Zun is also a true believer, but you do more, think more, and talk more. Well, in this way, Zuo Liuying is even more of a true believer. He only does things but doesn’t think about them. Not only did he not think about it, he even stopped thinking, and everything he said came from Kun Chao, but what exactly did he believe in? Kun Chao – there is no need for him to be hypocritical, there is no more real person than him in the world. “
Yin Buchen lowered his head and looked at himself, “What about me? I keep saying, what on earth am I talking about? I don’t even have a false belief, I am worse than this crazy emperor. No, no, I don’t just say it, I also do it, Whatever you do is what you truly believe in, so what am I doing? Laojun, Dao Zun, Zuo Liuying…”
Yin Buchen raised his hand and beat his head, then walked away without knowing where he was going, muttering to himself: “King Huaibi was right, I’m really a bit possessed. Ah, the devil’s thoughts, you are in my mind After staying here for so long, it should be enough, look what you have turned me into? This is what you like…”
The earth monkeys threw away the idols and chased the demon lord. Mu Lie looked at the half-demon’s back in surprise, “What happened to him?”
“He needs to think about it.” Mu Xingqiu walked towards the Patriarch’s Pagoda, preparing to continue writing talismans, which is what he was doing.
Mu Lie also patted his head and murmured: “I will never learn magic. It’s too difficult and messy.”
Cihuang was still crawling. Mu Lie felt sympathetic and was about to go over to help him up. Suddenly there was a neighing not far away and Qilin ran over. The Zushi Pagoda only accepted people but not livestock, and most of the horses ran away. However, Qilin was nostalgic for his old master, ran to Cihuang, lowered his head and pushed him gently with his only horn.
The Ci Emperor finally raised his head and said the complete words, “Great, you are still here, come and help me find the Emperor’s Treasure Staff.”
Qilin nodded, and Ci Huang took a deep breath, climbed on Qilin’s back, and whispered: “I want to rest for a while, just for a while.”
Qilin carried his master and ran towards the south with a steady pace, and Cihuang fell asleep soon.
How can a mad emperor and a scarred unicorn survive in troubled times? Mu Lie chased after him and shouted loudly, trying to keep Qilin behind, but Qilin didn’t even look back.
After running for dozens of steps, Mu Lie stopped. It was not because he was exhausted, but in the flash of lightning, he finally understood the meaning of Mu Xingqiu’s words: Qilin only does things but not words, how can a beast also do it? Can you have true faith?
Mu Lie looked at Yin Buchen who was walking along the river bed and understood what he was looking for. Mu Lie then looked at Mu Xingqiu, who was writing talismans around the Patriarch Tower, and understood what he had found.
Mu Lie slowly pulled out the knife from his waist. He had done this action countless times. Only this time made him tremble and his blood boiled. “I am indeed a fool. I never thought about whether I could defeat Zuo Liuying. In fact, it was Because I am afraid, afraid of losing all hope. There is no fear in true faith. There is no victory or defeat in faith.”
Mu Lie didn’t want to say any more, so he walked to the nearest wooden stake and chopped it with a knife, with firm conviction in every blow.
Across the Duanliu City, Qin Lingshuang walked up and down the ice, her steps a little faster than usual, and the two doors were brighter than usual. Suddenly she stopped and looked into the distance with her third eye.
Thousands of miles away, she saw a black phoenix flying gracefully.
She thought she had to do something.
