Bone

After getting a definite answer, Di Tianjun frowned and nodded, "That's good."

After finally winning a game, he picked up the chess pieces on the chessboard unhurriedly, while blaming Lord Yan Luo in a gentle voice: "Look, I've already said that this matter should not be rushed, you have to figure it out slowly, you But he wanted to step in and rush to create that troublesome nightmare—wasn’t his busy work in vain?”

Lord Yan Luo snorted softly, turned his eyes away, and said lazily: "The human heart is so lazy, so is the cultivator. If you don't find some way to force him, urge him, how can you make him remember the past and cheer up?" Go to his fate?"

They could see clearly that Qin Nian had been indulged in an affair for a long time, and he had the intention of giving up his bones.If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it won't be able to shine in the sky...

"It's still early, so what are you worried about?" Di Tianjun played with a white stone, smiling lightly, "After they go to Renhuang's place to retrieve the heart bone, if there is still no progress... then don't worry about it. Late."

Seeing that the two started chatting without saying whether to leave or stay, the ghost messenger lowered his head and retreated not far away.

Not caring that there was a third person by his side, Lord Yan Luo glanced at Di Tianjun with a hint of sarcasm, and said coolly: "I was worrying for you, but you think it's superfluous... If there are not many vacancies in the immortal position today , but soon there will be a group of human beings whose merits and virtues will be full, and they will be promoted to immortals——I will see how you will be when the time comes."

There are three worlds of heaven, earth, and human in the world, each with three types of immortals, humans, and ghosts. They seem to be distinct and do not interfere with each other, but in fact they are inextricably linked to maintain the operation of the way of heaven—the foundation of which is the balance. road.If there are many ghosts, people will suffer, and the people will not be able to live; if there are many people, it is inevitable that they will be born with desires and disasters, and they will commit suicide; Phase system is the most stable...

Thinking that the position of immortals in the heavens will be full, Lord Yan Luo raised his eyebrows and looked at Di Tianjun, "Why, aren't you afraid that the way of heaven will bring down an immortal calamity in order to maintain balance? When the Three Realms will be in chaos, no one will be able to catch it."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to fish it out, and like a cat, shuffled the chess pieces that Di Tianjun had just picked up on the board again, "Here, just like this chess piece."

Di Tianjun still had that calm smile on his face, and patiently picked up the chess pieces again, and his tone was still gentle, "No hurry, no hurry. Everything is God's will."

Accustomed to his unmoving appearance, Lord Yan Luo turned his two black pupils deeply upwards, and was too lazy to continue entangled with him on this issue, and instead said: "So, you Did you meet the Wind Envoy just now?"

Di Tianjun nodded, picked up two chess pieces, one white and one black, and put them together in his palm, "I've seen it, the appearance is still the same, but the temperament has become much calmer."

"Is it."

I still remember how Feng Shi arrogantly trespassed in the underworld before, Yan Luo pulled the corners of his mouth, and sneered, "His frivolous words and arrogant posture before, it is still very annoying when I think about it now... "As he spoke, the smile on the corners of his lips became colder, his eyes darkened, and finally revealed a bit of coldness that belonged to Yan Luo, "If it wasn't for him, Qin Nianjiu would not have..."

Thinking about Qin Nianjiu's gifted immortal bone and earthly spirit body, the two heavenly kings, Yan Luo and Yan Luo, were related even though they had no blood relationship. Reminiscing about the past is full of displeasure.

Full of displeasure, he tapped his fingertips on the stone table, Lord Yan Luo emphasized: "It's almost, it's really just a little bit short! Qin Nianjiu will be able to complete his merits and return to heaven and earth, and there won't be so many troubles in the future. It turns out-"

Having heard him repeat this matter over and over again for over sixty years, Di Tianjun shook his head in a funny way and interrupted him, "How do you know it's not Tiandao Mingming?"

Unlike human emperors who have been inherited from generation to generation, the two of them are the incarnations of the Dao of Heaven. The existence above—since it is under the way of heaven, it means that even they cannot understand the so-called "will of heaven" and can only act according to the sky—Di Tianjun's eyes drooped slightly, and he turned the two chess pieces in his hand lightly, "... A hundred years of peace, a hundred years of chaos, and another hundred years of peace, generally speaking, isn't it a kind of balanced reincarnation..."

"Let's not talk about this." Lord Yan Luo always didn't like to listen to his long-winded words, so he turned his palm and covered the black and white sons in Di Tianjun's palm with his hand, and said to him with great interest: "Let's make a bet? Just bet——"

Since they originally belonged to one body, they naturally had a tacit understanding, without him having to finish speaking, Di Tianjun already knew what he wanted to bet on, and continued as if sighing: "I think he will die this time without life."

Defeated also because of a tacit understanding, Lord Yan Luo sighed with regret, "...I also want to bet on ten deaths and no life."

He tilted his head and looked at the ghost messenger who had been standing there, "Based on what you see?"

Di Tianjun also turned his head and looked over.

The ghost messenger was still so expressionless, he lowered his head and replied, "Don't dare."

Seeing his dull appearance, Master Yan curled his lips in disappointment, but didn't let him back down. He only paused for a while before turning to look at Di Tianjun, "Then I'll let you go this time, bet It's a narrow escape."

He lightly touched the two chess pieces in Di Tianjun's palm, narrowed his eyes, and said meaningfully: "—After all, it's up to people."

"It's all about man..." As the incarnation of the Dao of Heaven, Di Tianjun couldn't help but find it funny when he said this, and he actually laughed lightly, "Could it be that you still think that man can conquer heaven?"

Yan Luo shrugged slightly: "How do you know that this 'artificial' is in the final analysis, whether it is also an arrangement of God's will."

The game of left and right has been decided, and the rest depends on God's will. Di Tianjun also shrugged, threw the two chess pieces back into the basket, and changed the subject, "Instead of thinking hard about this unsolvable question, it's better to think about it." Think—" He raised his hand and gently brushed the Yin Qi around him, "When are you going to return my status as Tianjun, and honestly go back to the Yin Division to be your Yan Luo?"

Relying on the same appearance, the two of them will switch identities from time to time, go to each other's territory to stay for a while, and chat for fun.After careful calculation, it has been less than half a month this time...

Hearing him mention this, Yan Luo couldn't help raising his sword eyebrows, "What's the rush, isn't it only half a month old?"

He didn't need to make spells or spells, he just closed his eyes lightly, and when he opened them again, the black clothes on his body turned into white robes embroidered with intricate stars.

"Here." He unscrupulously leaned on the stone table, propped his head to look at Di Tianjun, "The clothes are changed, and the deal is done. Let me be the emperor for a few more days, after all, those heavenly girls and I..."

"..." Di Tianjun looked helplessly at Lord Yan Luo who was playing a rascal, and heard him say: "Besides, I think you are very active in being Yama, you let those two go if you say... "

If not, how could the spells cast by Nagong Buwang be full of mistakes and omissions, so how could they be effective.

"Then it's up to you." Di Tianjun argued lazily with him, waved his sleeve and flicked the chessboard, "Another game?"

Lord Yan Luo laughed when he heard the words, leaned forward slightly, and picked up a handful of white chess pieces, "Okay."

……

On the other side of the underworld, Tan and Qin, who were rushing to the gate of hell, unexpectedly bumped into a familiar figure.

The man was wearing a rich brocade dress, with a delicate and handsome appearance, holding something tightly in his hand, and was looking at the ghosts of the past on tiptoe, as if he was looking for someone.

There are many ghosts passing by at the gate of ghosts. He rubbed his eyes, glanced sideways, and coincidentally met Qin Nianjiu's eyes. He couldn't help being stunned for a moment, "You are..."

The moment their eyes met, the three of them understood.

The "shroud" he was wearing belonged to this person, Qin Nianjiu hastily saluted him, "Mr. Chen."

Chen Wenyu returned a salute more flustered than him, and didn't know how to address him, so he could only temporarily choose a safer one: "This fairy..."

Qing Yu, who turned into a demon, had his hands and feet broken, and fled all the way to the Jiuling Tianzun Hall. When he was dying, he seemed to hear the voice of the sky, and asked him if he would use his body to revive someone's soul to save Qing Yu. He hurriedly agreed... and then fell straight into the underworld in a trance.

Perhaps because of this contract, he did not forget the trivial matters of his life like other ghosts, and no one urged him to reincarnate, so he wandered around this ghost gate every day, hoping to see Qingyu again——

Later, a ghost messenger came to look for him, and without saying anything, he just handed him two wooden cards—Qing Yu never expressed his thoughts before he was alive, but he understood when he saw the wooden cards...

However, Qingyu turned into an evil ghost, and he also died at her hands. A love affair that was originally a mutual gratification has no beginning and no end.

Thinking about his past, he couldn't help but feel sad, "The fairy king asked the ghost messenger to return these two wooden plaques to me, so the matter of Xibei should have been settled... But I don't know about Qingyu..."

The tragic situation in Xibei Village is still vivid in his mind, his eyes showed sadness, and he said with some difficulty: "Qingyu is..."

... Already out of your wits?

Qin Nianjiu never knew how to deal with such injuries, so he mumbled a few times in a bewilderment, but still didn't know where to start, "She..."

At critical moments, it is always fortunate that Tan Fengyue is by my side.He looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face of Mr. Chen before him, and spoke in a calm voice.

He didn't go into detail about the unbearable antecedents, only the consequences.In just a few words, he explained Luo Sha's private faults, and another sentence took the punishment she deserved. Finally, he raised his silver fan and pointed to the ghost beside him, "—this kind-hearted man, for her After paying half of the debt, there are only 20 years of sins left to bear."

I don't know if it's Qin Nianjiu's illusion, but he always felt that the ancestor gritted his teeth when he said this...

After Tan Fengyue said this, her tone returned to normal, and she looked at Chen Wenyu indifferently, "It's only 20 years, can you wait?"

After Chen Wenyu listened quietly to what he said, sadness and joy were intertwined on his face, he was almost unsteady on his feet, but finally murmured firmly, "...wait, wait."

I think this young master is only 20 years old at most. He used to be rich and well-clothed and lived a carefree life, but he suffered such a disaster... Qin Nianjiu really couldn't bear to tell him about the Chen family anymore, so he comforted him and said, "There is no sun and moon in the underworld, and [-] years is just the blink of an eye." .”

At this point, Chen Wenyu nodded silently, and followed his words: "Just blink."

Responding to each other in this way, the two looked at each other with sympathy in their hearts.

Unexpectedly, I heard Tan Fengyue quietly said, "The Chen family——"

When Qin Nianjiu handed him a slash in shock, he paused for a while before continuing: "There is a large Fengshui array in the back mountain, do you know who set it up?"

Originally thinking that Chen Wenyu was a junior in the family, maybe he didn't know the existence of this formation at all, so he just asked casually, but Chen Wenyu didn't show any confusion, but just shook his head in a daze, "...that formation has been around for a long time, what is it?" I don’t know who set it up, I only know that it’s an elder from a big sect—”

Qin Nianjiu and Tan Fengyue were both startled.

"I was far from being born at that time, and I only heard one or two things mentioned by the elders in my family..." Chen Wenyu tilted his head in thought, and said in a gentle voice: "The Chen family had not yet made a fortune at that time, and the number of people was small, so it was difficult to do anything. Following the trend... But by chance, an expert passed by Hongling, and saw that the mountain behind our house had good geomantic omen, so he instructed the elders in the family, and set up a formation there, saying that it could shade the whole city of Hongling, and further benefit the whole city. One side of the world, and let our Chen family take care of that area for generations..."

Speaking of this, he seemed to scratch his head a little shyly, "Perhaps it was because of the momentum of the treasure array that the Chen family has also flourished."

Hearing his narration like this, one probably didn't know that it was actually a "sacrifice array", and even less knew whose eyes were being suppressed... Tan Fengyue nodded, and asked again: "Before you said 'long time', did you know What year is it?"

Chen Wenyu opened his mouth to answer, but heard a series of clear bells suddenly exploded at the gate of the ghost.

A ghost guide came striding over, looked at Tan and Qin with frowns, and said fiercely: "Those who do not belong to the Yin Division, don't stay here for a long time!"

It was indeed delayed for too long, Qin Nianjiu hastily dragged the thoughtful Tan Fengyue, and said to the ghost: "Let's go now."

The Ghost Envoy snorted unhappily, swiped the halberd in the air, and the thick and thick yin energy enveloped them, pushing them both out of the netherworld.

In a hurry, Chen Wenyu only had time to ask, "I haven't asked the fairy's name yet!"

This immortal lord saved Qingyu and helped Qingyu, and Yu Qingyu had a kindness. If he didn't even know his name, how would he remember this kindness in his heart?

When his figure disappeared, Qin Nianjiu only had time to let go of his borrowed three-character name, "——Qin Nianjiu."

The voice fell, and the two were no longer seen at the gate of hell.

... Qin Nianjiu?

Chen Wenyu stood there in a daze. After a while, he lowered his eyes to the wooden plaque in his hand with the words "Heavenly Protector" engraved on it.

——Isn't this the name of Jiuling Tianzun?

——Isn't the Jiuling Tianzun not at all ineffective, so that the hall has been deserted and defeated year by year?

His heart was full of doubts, but the only ones rubbing shoulders with him were ghosts with blank faces, so he coughed lightly, moved a little closer to the place where the ghost messenger was received, and said cautiously: "My lord..."

The ghost messenger snorted again, "What?"

Seeing that he didn't scold himself to back down, Chen Wenyu plucked up the courage to salute him, and asked, "Does your lord know, Qin Nianjiu?"

The ghost envoy took a glance at him, and answered him: "Yes. Qin Jun, born with immortal bones and a spiritual body raised by the earth, entered the immortal sect since childhood."

...are these two the same person?Chen Wenyu recalled bitterly the record of meritorious deeds recorded in the hall of Jiuling Tianzun, "...does my lord know, Qin Xianzun?"

The ghost envoy showed impatience, but still answered him, "I know. Gathering in the Cangshan Mountain to see the Shizong Xianzun, shaking the sky with a long sword, cultivating the ruthless way, and casting ghosts and punishing evil all his life."

It must be the same person!Chen Wenyu hurriedly asked: "Then, does your lord know, Jiuling Tianzun?"

The ghost messenger was silent for a while, and answered after a while: "I don't know."
