I descend into the world of heaven - #858 - Chapter 853 Heart
Chen Chu’s inquiry made Xin Ming feel inexplicably heavy.
The buzz of insects on Gongqiu Mountain seemed to disappear at this moment. Xin Ming felt that his throat was a little dry, and he swallowed subconsciously. His fingers trembled slightly, and then he held it hard as if he had made some determination, and said in a deep voice: “Bitterness is It’s hard, but if you want to open up a new road, there will always be someone who can do it, and I am willing to be the one who opens the way!” As his words fell, the wind on the cold Gongqiu Mountain seemed a little gentler.
Hahaha.
Chen Chu smiled inwardly, patted Xin Ming’s shoulder hard and said, “Then just follow me for now.”
At this time, there were footsteps. They were two little boys. One of them was the child who had just been pulled out and became Gongqiu Lao Tao’s “little apprentice”. They glanced at Chen Chu, turned around and ran into the broken cellar entrance. After a while, the two of them worked together to move a big box out of the cellar entrance…
The box was placed heavily in front of Chen Chu.
Chen Chu was a little surprised and said, “What are you doing?”
The “little disciple” said: “Master Tao, when we were arrested, the old man Gongqiu suddenly went crazy and talked to himself, saying that there was such a place where the box was hidden. Now that we have come out, we want to find the box and give it to him. Master Tao! There is a lock on the box. We can’t break it open with a stone. There should be gold, silver and other good things inside…”
Chen Chu looked at the expectant faces of the two children. They were doing the right thing, but doing this at this age would affect their future growth.
He smiled slightly and said, “I understand, you go down the mountain.” When the two children saw Chen Chu accepting the box, they went down the mountain together.
Xin Ming looked at their backs and said: “Master Tao, if we want to change the world, I’m afraid we need to start with the children and tell them what is good and what is evil. When they grow up, they will also pass on the concept of right and wrong… …”
This guy……
Very spiritual.
Chen Chu thought to himself.
He hummed: “Yes, but the most urgent thing now is to defeat all the evil gods.”
The box that the two children carried up was quite large, more than half a meter high, made of wood, and had a dark red paint surface. No, it was covered in a layer of blood that had dried for a long time. It looked a little black and red.
Xin Ming squatted down and patted the box lightly with his hands a few times, leaned his ear against the box to listen, and even picked it up and shook it. He didn’t know what was inside, but it rolled around and made a rattling sound, but it was definitely not gold. Silver jewelry! He looked around and found a stone to hit the padlock hard. Sparks flew everywhere. He must have been stronger than a child, but except for some white marks on the padlock, it didn’t look like it was about to fall off at all…
The contents of the box exuded a strong stench and surrounded it with an ominous atmosphere.
Chen Chu knelt down to check. The padlock… turned out to be a combination lock. In this ancient-like place, the padlock’s code turned out to be a modern one with gears inside. There were three grids in total, and each grid could turn out ten symbols. If If you want to win with quantity, well… it’s not a big problem.
He held the padlock in his left hand, and with a thought, the gears on it automatically rotated, clicking, like an electronic machine running. With a click, the padlock code matched and opened automatically.
Xin Ming immediately covered his nose and said, “Master Tao, be careful, it has a very strong smell!”
Chen Chu said: “Stand a little further away.”
He slowly opened the lid of the box, and black gas came out from inside, rushing towards his face. The eyes of the little black cat lying on his shoulder lit up, and he opened his small mouth and sucked it in hard. When the black gas disappeared, it burped slightly. , curled up and continued to sleep. And inside the box was a translucent glass bottle, which actually contained a heart!
heart!
The human heart!
Xin Ming stood more than ten steps away and was shocked when he saw the thing in Chen Chu’s hand: “Master Tao, throw it away quickly, it may be cursed!”
Chen Chu said it was okay, opened the lid of the glass bottle, poured out the heart inside and looked at it carefully. The heart is still alive, beating slightly at a level that is difficult for ordinary people to detect…
What is the heart? It is a large organ of the human body that is responsible for blood supply and can provide power for every beat. It was actually taken out alone and placed here…
There are densely packed rows of black things on the heart. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that they are very tiny talismans that seal the vitality of the heart so that it can survive alone.
Chen Chu felt a little disgusted and wanted to destroy it.
As if sensing danger, his heart beat violently for several times, and a face twisted into his atrium. It turned out to be the old face of Gongqiu Lao Dao. He panicked and said, “No, you can’t kill me! I have the faith of the gods. Heart of Great Harmony, if you kill me, you will be discovered by the gods immediately and you will be trapped in a place of eternal destruction and die without a burial place!”
Chen Chu frowned: “God, please tell me in detail what God looks like and what abilities he has.”
The old Taoist Gongqiu in his heart said: “You can’t kill me, no one has seen the God of Heaven, but every one of us cultivators knows where the God of Heaven is, and we can sense it as long as we practice! The God of Heaven has given me a letter seal, and I can transfer it to God.” Heart, as long as I work hard to cultivate… and become an immortal, and then put the divine heart back, I will be able to see the gods in the underworld, enjoy eternal life, and enjoy endless glory and wealth at my fingertips!”
Chen Chu’s hand tightened slightly: “I’ll let you talk about the gods in detail.”
His face was a little painful, and he said hurriedly: “They say they have never seen the gods. We only get little oracles from the gods when we dream. What we know the most is the recurring word ‘Datong’ …, I don’t know anything else, because when I woke up from the dream, the oracle quickly slipped from my mind.”
Chen Chu: “…”
The face on the heart said hurriedly: “It’s all true, I don’t know the rest.”
Chen Chu said: “So, if you want to meet the gods, you must first become an immortal, and then put on this god’s heart to achieve the so-called great unity?”
The heart-shaped face said: “That’s it…”
Chen Chu smiled: “You don’t know anything, so you are willing to do this. You have become an immortal yourself, why do you rely on gods?”
There was a trace of confusion on Xinxin’s face, and he said: “God… is everywhere, above countless immortals and gods. Only by being attached to God can our cultivation be meaningful. I remembered that God seemed to have said this in a dream. , the so-called Datong is… cough…” Before the words behind it came out, blood spurted out from its mouth and nose, showing an expression of extreme pain.
Chen Chu had already let go of his hand and asked, “What’s the matter with you?”
Xinxin said in pain and fear: “I…I accidentally revealed too many things about the gods, and I was punished by the gods…Save me, please save me, I don’t want to die, I’m already about to become an immortal… …Ah…ahhahaha, where is this place? Is it the world of gods, where the gods live? It’s so beautiful, hahaha…”
Chen Chu felt something was wrong, so he threw his heart out. It fell to the ground and rolled several times, then exploded with a muffled sound, like a high-explosive grenade, making a hole in the ground.
When the blood splashing in the air was about to fall on Chen Chu, it seemed to be reflected by an invisible barrier.
When his heart was about to explode, Chen Chu caught a faint message. He looked to his left hand and saw a white silk thread that looked like a hair slowly moving…
His strength is recovering.
Xin Ming ran over and asked with concern: “Master Dao, are you okay?”
Chen Chu said: “Xin Ming, where does that lead to?”
He pointed to the southwest of Gongqiu Mountain.
Xin Ming followed his finger and said, “Master Dao, if you keep walking in this direction, you should be able to reach the county where my home is…”
Chen Chu refined the weak information in his hand, sensed it carefully and said, “In that case, do you mind if I come to your house to sit down?”
Xin Ming hesitated and said: “My family… To be honest with you, everyone in my family is like this world. If outsiders come in, they will have to shed their skin. If I were not the son of the family owner, I would have been crushed to death…”
Chen Chu knew that Xin Ming was concerned about his safety, so he smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter, just go and take a look.”
Leave Gongqiu Mountain.
They walked southwest and met a post station on the way.
The people at the inn were full of malicious intentions, but the next second they learned that Chen Chu was a “Taoist”, they were so frightened that they almost wet their pants. They hurriedly sent out a carriage, coaxed the two of them to get in and quickly left the inn. Although they are not good people, they still have to be a little cautious when doing things. How can they be like these “Taoist” masters who can kill people without knowing it, and it is impossible to prevent them…
Xin Ming had seen his family’s horseman driving a carriage. He went up to operate it for a while. He was a little clumsy, but he still drove the carriage.
The county where he is located is called Mashan County. It has a large population and is relatively prosperous, but it is also dangerous. People who can survive in the county are either ruthless or rich or noble and cannot be offended, and he, Xin Ming, belongs to the rich category. in that column.
The carriage was driving on a dirt road, only a dozen miles away from the inn. They had already encountered two waves of bandits blocking the road. Fortunately, Chen Chu was here. If Xin Ming was alone, he would have been attacked again just after leaving Huangfeng Village. Tied twice, it’s hard not to die…
Chen Chu sat cross-legged in the carriage, feeling the world.
This world is riddled with holes, like a broken ball thrown into a stinking ditch. The inside and outside have been polluted, covered with weeds and filth.
Xin Ming drove the carriage and asked, “Master Tao, what is this evil god you are talking about?”
After a short period of getting along with him, he discovered that although Chen Chu held the title of “Taoist”, he never did anything like Taoist. Such an alternative style coincided with his value!
Therefore, I am not so timid when talking and communicating, and I even dare to ask questions.
Chen Shi was intentional about this Xin Ming, and was not ambiguous. He said directly: “Gods are a collective term for gods or immortals. Under normal circumstances, gods have justice in their hearts and take it as their mission to save all living beings. To put it simply, they are compassionate. The world, trying to save the world from all suffering and disaster…”
Xin Ming: “Who is the evil god?”
Chen Chu said: “Evil gods usually refer to gods who have gone through crooked ways, have no mercy, give up on all living beings, take pleasure in toying with and killing sentient beings, and even use the lives of living beings as consumables for cultivation… um… materials.
Due to some external reasons, normal gods died while fighting evil, and their remaining bodies were taken over by evil, turning into evil gods that harmed living beings…”
Xin Ming’s mind is very flexible. After Chen Chu said this, he dared to make a bold guess: “Master Tao, you said that there is a world dominated by kindness and legal restraint. Could it be that our world was like this before, with kind gods?” They protected the world, but later these gods were killed by evil, causing evil gods to dominate the world, distorting our view of good and evil, and focusing on evil… So you have to directly point your sword at the evil gods, eliminate them, and then slowly change the world’s thinking. .”
Chen Chu said happily: “There are slight differences, but that’s pretty much what it means.”
Xin Ming received Chen Chu’s affirmation and said with excitement: “Killing the evil god and changing the world is such a big thing. Master Dao, I like this!”
He reacted and said: “But… Master Dao, as far as I know, according to folk rumors and ancient books, gods are very powerful. The statues enshrined in the Taoist temples and temples of Master Dao are gods! The monks and masters are all There are many weird and wonderful methods, so how powerful the gods must be… Could it be that among these gods, there is one who is the most powerful and controls everything? Master Tao, just by ourselves… isn’t our power a bit small?”
Chen Chu got straight to the point and said: “Xin Ming, I am actually a god. I am here to continue to perform the things that the previous gods have not done. It does not matter if the enemy is strong. I am afraid that we are not confident in ourselves and have self-doubt. We have not yet responded to the enemy, and we have collapsed. .Our faith is the most powerful force…”
He smiled and said: “Of course, you can’t just talk about it. I am writing a book suitable for your cultivation in this world. It should be almost ready by the time you arrive in Mashan County. After you get started, you can also have a sense of self-protection. Power, at least when it comes to attacks from ordinary people, there is no need to be so fearful…”
The carriage traveled on the road for a day and a night, and Chen Chu also practiced for a day and a night. The Nine-turn Dao Pill broke through the seventh turn, and the surging mana instantly filled the eight meridians. Taishang Laojun’s Nine Turns Dao Pill is very magical. It is simply a super power bank, allowing him to replenish his mana in this place that is extremely lacking in spiritual energy.
Late at night, Mashan County arrived.
Xin Ming had also yawned all the way over, his eyelids were fighting.
Chen Chu watched quietly. He had many ways to help Xin Ming, but he couldn’t do it now. Human nature needs to be tempered. Although Xin Ming suffered a lot in Huangfeng Village, he was a blessing in disguise after the disaster. It was easy to forget the suffering. Chen Chu hoped that he could stabilize his character and become a solid foundation for the future.
Late night in this world.
The sky is like an ink-filled Milky Way hanging upside down, and black textures can be faintly seen flowing like water.
He walked out of the carriage and immediately felt eyes staring at him. When he turned around, the road where the carriage came was empty. There was no one, not even an animal.
Chen Chu knew that his perception was not wrong, but the other party’s concealment skills were better.
There were two men holding spears at the entrance of Mashan County. Xin Ming knew what the gatekeeper wanted to do. Now that he had no tokens, it would be a disadvantage to start a dispute here. He simply stopped the carriage next to him and said, “I The eldest young master of the Xin family, I don’t have any tokens with me yet, so I will give this carriage to you. I will give each of you fifty taels of silver as a gift when I return to the Xin family!”
