Chapter 44 Chapter 43: Book from Heaven

Seeing that Bi Yao solemnly kowtowed her head three times, then stood up, glanced at Zhang Xiaofan, saw him looking away, standing there motionless, frowning, but didn't say anything , said lightly: "Let's go." When Zhang Xiaofan walked in with her, in the tunnel, he felt a little fond of this woman, but now seeing these two evil gods, he immediately remembered the difference between sects, and remembered his teacher since he was a child His teaching naturally turned cold, he nodded slightly, and said, "Okay." Baguio glanced at him, then walked in deeper, Zhang Xiaofan followed behind her, this time she didn't go very far, and entered a spacious place, but this place was not decorated like the stone room outside , but a cave with stalactites hanging upside down and strange rocks. There are all kinds of stalactites in the cave, and the colors are also colorful. In front of the two, there is a huge monument at the entrance of the cave, on which ten large characters are engraved:

The world is not benevolent, and treats everything as a straw dog! Each of these ten big characters is almost half the size of a human being, with ancient and clumsy brushstrokes and vigorous strokes, walking straight towards the dragon and snake, with the tendency to come out head-on, roaring towards the sky. At first Zhang Xiaofan didn't see anything wrong, but after staring at it for a while, he felt dizzy and involuntarily took a step back.He was taken aback in his heart, and quickly gathered himself together, but saw that the word was still on the stele, not moving at all, but this courage was really scary.

Zhang Xiaofan was surprised, in a blink of an eye he saw that Bi Yao had bypassed the monument and was walking towards the depths of the cave, so he also followed.Walking around the stele, they saw strange-shaped stalactites everywhere behind it. The two walked around the stone forest for a while, and Bi Yao, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and let out a soft cry. And almost at the same time, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly noticed that the fire stick he used to fix his arm suddenly glowed with a strange light, especially the bead on the front of the fire stick, which was even more unusually bright, but this time But it was soft, like meeting an old friend or acquaintance whom you haven't seen for many years, with endless thoughts and nostalgia.

Zhang Xiaofan looked forward in amazement, his eyes passed beside Biguio, he saw the scene ahead that surprised Biguio: the bottom of the cave is a smooth stone wall, there is a tunnel on both sides of the stone wall, leading to an unknown place, But under the stone wall, there is a bluestone platform, on which there is a skeleton sitting quietly. And the bead on the fire stick, facing the skeleton at this moment, glowed with a soft blue light. Baguio stood in front, didn't notice Zhang Xiaofan's strange expression and the change of the fire stick in his hand, after the initial shock, she quickly calmed down.After all, she is a member of the Devil's Cult, so how could she be afraid of a skeleton, she stepped forward and looked carefully, but she didn't see any surprises, she turned her head and smiled at Zhang Xiaofan: "Maybe this is The black-hearted old ghost who shook the world eight hundred years ago."

Naturally, Zhang Xiaofan didn't have a good impression of this member of the Demon Cult, he snorted and said: "Let's find out if there is any way out?" Baguio glanced at him, pursed her lips, and said, "If you want to find it, you can find it yourself." Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a while, a bit embarrassed, snorted, turned around and walked into the tunnel on the left.Before he took two steps, he shook his head secretly to himself, only thinking how could he be so impatient in the face of this Demon Cult woman, and reacted so violently when he was provoked, I am afraid that at this moment she saw it in his eyes, and she was sneering and saying indefinite.

But when I think about it, since I have stepped out, it is impossible to turn back. After walking a few steps, there is no movement behind me. It seems that Bi Yao did not follow. For some reason, Zhang Xiaofan felt a little lost in his heart, but then he cursed secretly Saying "No Promise" to myself, I cheered up and walked carefully into the depths of the tunnel. The tunnel Zhang Xiaofan is in now is the same as the road he came from outside, but it is much deeper and quieter. Looking far away, it is almost dark, and the road seems to be relatively long. I really can't understand those demons back then How did the people who taught the Blood Refining Church develop such a huge project.

After walking like this for quite a while, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly noticed that the front was gradually brightening up, he was overjoyed, he quickened his pace and walked forward, only to see a soft light emanating from the end of the road ahead, very clear in the darkness, like gentle Tentacles, tempting people in the world. Zhang Xiaofan took a deep breath and stepped into the light. ※※※ Bi Yao watched Zhang Xiaofan's figure disappear into the tunnel, startled for a moment, and his face sank.Her father is a high-ranking figure in the Demon Cult, she has been like a princess since she was a child, no one would dare to disobey her.Unexpectedly, in this desperate situation today, she met a young and tempered guy in the righteous way, so she couldn't help but not get angry.

But speaking of Zhang Xiaofan when he was in Qingyun Mountain, he was also a kind boy, as for why he bumped into each other when he was with Baguio, apart from his family opinion, I'm afraid he himself can't explain it clearly. Naturally Baguio doesn't know about these things, but Zhang Xiaofan really sees her troubles with her several times, and feels very uncomfortable in his heart, but the two of them are currently in a desperate situation, so it's hard to teach this kid a lesson. I had to snort, remember it in my heart, but it is absolutely impossible to say that Bi Yao wronged her to go with Zhang Xiaofan.I saw that she hardly thought about it, turned around, and walked into the tunnel on the right.

After walking a few steps, Baguio felt that this was a road similar to the tunnel outside, but there were fewer shiny things on both sides of the stone wall, making the tunnel appear dim.But fortunately, this road is not very long, Baguio soon came to the end, once again stepped into a stone room. This is a medium-sized stone room. There are many shelves on one side, but a pile of garbage on the other side. Most of them are iron objects, such as knives, swords, guns, etc. Most of them are damaged. Throwing an ax, the whole body is rusty, it is quite huge, and it is still intact, it looks like the whole ax is made of iron.

Baguio lost interest after looking at it for a second, turned around and walked to the shelves, took a closer look, first a look of joy appeared on his face, but soon it involuntarily changed into a look of disappointment.I saw labels placed one by one on the shelves. Some words on them were blurred long ago, but there were still some words that could barely be read clearly, but they all made people's hearts flutter. They were all like: "Five Sacred Halberds" , "Guanyue Cable", "Liren Cone" and other names. Baguio grew up in the Demon Cult since she was a child, and her father is a genius who knows everything about the past and the present. He has a profound family education. Naturally, he knows that these are the first-class magical artifacts and secret treasures in the rumors of the Demon Cult. Why not like it?It's a pity that on these shelves, there are mostly labels but no real objects, and there is no joy.

She sighed, but she was still lucky, and looked through these shelves one by one, and saw that every shelf was empty, but in the end, perhaps Huangtian paid off, and she found it in the last grid. There is also a small iron box, but there is no label on this shelf, and I don't know what is inside. Baguio was overjoyed, and carefully stretched out her hand to pick up the box, only to feel that it was quite heavy in her hand, she shook it lightly a few times, but there was no sound.Baguio pondered for a while, then put the iron box on the ground, took a deep breath, focused on vigilance, waved his right hand, suddenly white light appeared in the stone room, and a jade-like flower appeared in the air, emitting a faint fragrance at the same time. Baguio looked solemn, turned his right hand, and the small flower standing in the air was shining brightly, flying above the iron box, and the white light enveloped the entire iron box.Then, Baguio carefully stretched out his hand to open the small box.As soon as she took over the lid of the iron box, Baguio felt that the box was not locked, she frowned, her eyes became more vigilant, she gritted her teeth, and opened the lid of the iron box cruelly. There was only a light "click" sound, and before I could see what was inside the iron box, a puff of black air came out first.Baguio's complexion changed drastically, she almost fell out like an electric shock, and the small white flower on the top of the iron box rushed down immediately, the black air was immediately covered by the white light, but she couldn't get out after several impulses. Seeing the black air gradually shrinking, while the jade-like white flower gradually turned black, it actually sucked the black air in. After the black air dissipated completely, Baguio waited for a while before coming over. She looked intently at her little flower, which was originally a rare treasure "Sad Flower" specially made for her by her father with great painstaking efforts. At this moment, the petals that were originally white jade have completely turned into a purple-black color, which looks a bit hideous. Baguio's complexion changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "'Ancient Corpse Poison'! The black-hearted old ghost really has a dark heart, and actually made this kind of thing!" While cursing in a low voice, the black-hearted old man, the senior of the Demon Cult, she cast her eyes into the iron box. It was very simple inside. There was only one thing in a small iron box: a small golden bell that was as good as new. Baguio was stunned for a while, she didn't expect that there was such a rare and highly poisonous thing as "Ancient Corpse Poison" in this iron box, and she was just guarding such a small bell. She looked left and right, but she didn't see anything strange , pondered for a while, and slowly stretched out his hand to pick up the little bell. "jingle". A crisp sound echoed in the secret stone room that had been quiet for eight hundred years, as if echoing in the heart. Baguio picked up the bell, but saw that the heart of the bell was exquisite and delicate, a thin iron cable was tied to the body of the bell, and when it was shaken slightly, the heart of the bell hit the body of the bell lightly, and made a sound again: "Ding... Ding Dong." Baguio saw it in her eyes, she was a girl with a heart, and she liked it very much. The disappointment just now has been diluted a lot, and she checked it carefully again, and there is indeed nothing weird, it seems to be an ordinary and exquisitely made bell.However, the black-hearted old man collected it so mysteriously and carefully, there must be something extraordinary about this bell, so I would ask my father when I have a chance to go out. Thinking of this, Baguio settled down, but seeing the little bell, she liked it more and more, so she tied it around her waist and turned around, and there were bursts of crisp ringtones, extremely pleasant, Baguio Very proud, nodding again and again. Afterwards, she checked the stone room carefully, but found nothing. She even checked the pile of garbage, and there was generally nothing worth noting, let alone any way out.After finishing his work, Baguio stood up slowly, it seemed that it was time to check on the situation of that silly boy. Before walking out of the stone room, she looked back for the last time, and saw that the stone room was still messy, and after she turned over the pile of garbage, it became even more messy, all kinds of weapons were thrown on the ground, and the big ax was also thrown on corner. Then, she walked out of the stone room. ※※※ The tunnel on the left that Zhang Xiaofan entered just now is much longer than the road on the right that Biguio entered. Biguio walked for a while before seeing the light turn on, but the situation inside was still unclear, but for some reason There was no movement inside, but she felt a faint worry in her heart. There are so many weird and cruel things in this demon sect, which are weird and unpredictable. Could it be... Subconsciously, she quickened her pace, walked into the stone room, took a closer look, and finally felt relieved, saw Zhang Xiaofan standing in the stone room, looking at the stone wall, dazed. Bi Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then carefully observed this stone room, only to see that this stone room was much larger than the one she had just visited, but it was empty, with nothing in it, but on the hard stone wall of the stone room, there was Carved with densely packed stone inscriptions, what Zhang Xiaofan is looking at with a frown is exactly these things. Baguio frowned, walked forward, took a look, and immediately showed joy on his face, only to see that at the beginning of the whole stone carving, there were only two characters engraved: Heaven! "The Book of Heaven, this is the Book of Heaven!" Baguio couldn't help cheering. Zhang Xiaofan was startled, only then did he realize that Bi Yao had come to him, but his attention seemed to be only on her words, "Book from heaven? Do you know what this book from heaven is?" Baguio glared at him, and said: "How could I not know, this 'Book of Heaven' is the scripture of our holy religion, from ancient times to the present, all the supernatural powers of the disciples of the holy religion have been comprehended from this heavenly book. " Zhang Xiaofan's body was shocked again, his face was full of confusion, he turned his head to stare at the stone carving on the wall, after a while, he whispered: "No, it's impossible!" Baguio's face darkened, and he said: "This is the scripture of our holy religion, and it is my top secret. Didn't you say that we are demons and heretics, why are you still peeping?" Zhang Xiaofan didn't seem to hear it, only the words engraved on the wall were in his eyes: "Book of Heaven Volume One": The good fortune of heaven and earth is called the time of chaos, when ignorance is not divided, the sun and the moon contain their brilliance, the sky and earth are mixed, the outline changes, and the turbidity becomes old. The reason why heaven and earth can last forever is because they do not grow by themselves, so they can last forever.However, all things in the world have their appearances. All beings are obsessed with the appearance of self, person, sentient beings, and longevity. Because of their appearance, they will have three poisons, three fears and three terrors in their hearts. It will not last long. There is no punishment in the sky, and there is no name in Taoism. That is why it is said that those who have no self, no one, no sentient beings, and no life can reach the light.Adhering to the righteous way, the inner body is self-nature, and the heaven and earth take the origin as the heart. Therefore, moving and resting in the earth is the heart view of heaven and earth. Therefore, there is no reality and nothingness. Therefore, the heaven and the earth are allowed to be natural, and there is nothing to do and nothing to create. If the old things do not exist, they are not enough to prepare! ... (Note 1) Bi Yao snorted, originally wanted to get angry, but after thinking about it, she didn't say anything, she also looked at the wall, after reading a few words, she felt dizzy, she also admired Zhang Xiaofan for being so dull He can actually read the text.But when he turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaofan, he was slightly taken aback, he saw that his face was full of pain and confusion, and his whole body was trembling slightly, with an indescribably strange feeling. In fact, anyone in the world would not be as excited as Zhang Xiaofan is at this moment.In Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, this so-called Devil's Cult classic, this so-called general outline of the text, is almost like a knife, piercing straight into his heart. When his practice of the Buddhist "Dafan Prajna" is completely opposite, the impact on him will be hundreds of times greater. From this passage, he suddenly discovered that the fundamentally different cultivation methods of Taoism and Buddhism, which he secretly thought since he was a child, have a faint tendency to lead to the same goal by different routes. I can accept it, but after reading it, his face gradually paled, because in this so-called Devil's Cult classic, he discovered a big secret: All the supernatural powers and strange methods in this demon sect are extreme and peculiar, but above the root, they are among them.Taoism pays attention to controlling nature, Buddhism focuses on understanding self-nature, but in the heavenly scriptures, it seems to cover everything, including Taoist thought and Buddhist great law. Changing to another one like Baguio, I don’t have any idea after reading these words, I always thought it was the great supernatural power left by my ancestor, but in the eyes of Zhang Xiaofan, who is the only one in this world who understands the true teachings of Taoism and Buddhism, this matter is really serious. terrible. A thought that he had never had before haunted him lingeringly: What exactly is right? He looked down involuntarily, his face was pale, his mind was agitated, with fanatical and strange curiosity and hunger, he only vaguely felt that a big secret was in front of his eyes, but he couldn't touch it, couldn't see it, but it attracted him even more , run towards that goal. It's just that, in his heart, there is also a little fear, isn't this what it should be? Baguio looked at Zhang Xiaofan for a while, and saw that he was still concentrating on the stone carvings on the wall, with a strange expression, as if he completely forgot that he was standing next to him, annoyed for no reason in his heart, and snorted coldly, unexpectedly Zhang Xiaofan turned a deaf ear to him, and did not hear any movement No. Baguio pursed her lips, feeling very annoyed, but for some reason she didn't want to take action to teach this person a lesson, turned around bitterly and walked out, and stepped on loudly before leaving, but unfortunately the silly boy still didn't respond at all. Baguio angrily walked out of the stone room, returned to the stalactite cave, and sulked at the skeleton. At first, it was nothing to think about, but seeing that kid was not pleasing to the eye, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. The originally beautiful "sad flower" was now completely black, and immediately transferred her anger to the black-hearted old man, pointing at the skeleton and said angrily: "You old ghost, you have been dead for 800 years and you still want to kill others and kill me. The Yuhua became...become..." Unable to continue a sentence, Baguio became more and more angry, let alone said more, with a wave of her sleeve, "Sad Flower" flew out and circled on the skull and came back. After a while, only the ear-piercing bone crack The sound of "click", the skeleton fell down in pieces. After the shot, Baguio's anger slowed down a bit, and she couldn't help feeling a little regretful in her heart. She didn't know where she got so angry, but when she looked around, she was surprised. It turned out that the stone wall covered by the skeleton just now On the wall, there were actually a few lines of writing there, and I hurried over to take a closer look, only to see four lines of writing on the wall: Bells swallow, flowers wither, The figure is getting thinner and his temples are like frost. Affectionately suffers, life suffers, Infatuation is only suffering for ruthlessness. ※※※ Note 1: The bibliography of the general outline of this section: , "Diamond Sutra", "Tanjing", "Book of Jin·Jizhan Biography", "Zhou Yi Fu Gua Tuan Zhuan Zhuan Zhuan Zhuan" and so on.
