Chen Qingshan suddenly remembered one thing, which was how Dao Shisan, a little Taoist priest who had no power to tie a chicken, survived the first dry night.
Dao Shisan said that he met a kind-hearted man. The man's surname was Qin, and he said that he was the best in the world. He named him Qin Zizai, and he gave Dao Shisan a few fires.
Originally, Qin Zizai promised to look for Chen Qingshan with Dao Shisan, but then someone carrying the Overlord's Halberd said that he would take Qin Zizai to fight, so he left in a hurry.
Chen Qingshan recognized the two people mentioned by Dao Shisan. He had seen them in the north office of Chang'an City, Qin Zizai from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Cheng Pengju, the son of the Minister of War.
Dao Shisan also said that even if he didn't have the fire given by Qin Zizai, he would have been prepared. Dao Shisan said and took out a big red incense candle from the small bag he carried. Dao Shisan said that this was not an ordinary incense candle, but called an longevity candle.
But in this dry night, protect yourself from worries.
Chen Qingshan asked him if he had used it before, and Dao Shisan shook his head.
Chen Qingshan was helpless and said: "Let's go."
"What for?" Dao Shisan asked.
Chen Qingshan rolled his eyes: "What else can I do? Kill people."
There are rewards in this winter hunting ceremony, especially for the leader.
Sanzang recited a Buddha's name and took out the sword he brought from Jishui Town: "Qingshan said he wanted to kill people, so he went to kill people."
Although Tripitaka recited the Buddha's name, he also killed people.
Monk Liaofan said that as long as there are no worries in your heart, you can kill all living beings in this world.
Although the Buddha pities all living beings in this world, if he takes action, he will be angry with Vajra. Not to mention Tripitaka, aren't the Buddhist cultivators from Dabei Temple also coming to kill the enemy on the North Star?
Dao Shisan looked at this young monk with delicate features, shrank his neck in fear, arranged his cloth bag, and quickly followed the two people who were walking away.
Dao Shisan saw that this young monk followed Chen Qingshan to kill many people.
Whenever he met a monk from the Sea of Stars, Sanzang would shout: "Almsgiver, this poor monk will send you on your way."
Then he raised the knife and dropped it without any ambiguity, not like a Buddhist cultivator, but like a murderer.
After Sanzang killed the people, he would recite the rebirth mantra to them and let them rest in their graves.
Seeing Sanzang's one-stop service for transcendence and rebirth, Dao Shisan felt that he had gained some knowledge.
He also killed a group of monks from the Sea of Stars, and one of them collected the jade slips from Sanzang, while the other saved the souls. The division of labor was clear.
There was a rumbling sound, getting closer and closer.
Chen Qingshan raised his head and looked into the distance, seeing two people, Qin Zizai and Cheng Pengju.
The two men went to fight and seemed to have lost the fight. They were running away desperately, and there was only one person chasing them.
Seeing Chen Qingshan and the others, Qin Zizai was anxious and shouted: "Run!"
At this time, Chen Qingshan also saw clearly who was chasing the two men. He was a barefoot young man wearing a coat, with bronze skin and a peaceful face.
Qin Zizai and Cheng Pengju gritted their teeth, drew their weapons, and attacked the young man again.
This young man was very strong and could withstand Qin Zizai's broken sword and Cheng Pengju's Overlord Halberd with his fists and feet.
This young man's name was Tuoba Holy Mountain. Cheng Pengju met him at first and fought with him, but was defeated.
Tuoba Holy Mountain did not kill Cheng Pengju, but just allowed him to leave. Cheng Pengju refused to accept it, so he found Qin Zizai, who was close to him, and wanted to regain the place. In the end, the two of them were beaten up by Tuoba Holy Mountain again.
I have been hunted down to this point.
The flying sword in Chen Qingshan's sleeve turned into a giant and shot toward Tuoba Holy Mountain, relieving the two of them from the siege.
Chen Qingshan joined the battlefield. Sanzang walked up to Chen Qingshan and stood together. He used the Golden Body Technique and his skin slowly turned golden.
Without words, the five of them fought together.
Tuoba Shengshan punched Sanzang. Sanzang took three steps back and blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Qin Zizai's broken sword and Cheng Pengju's Overlord Halberd could not break Tuoba Holy Mountain's body, but only created sparks one after another on his body.
Only Chen Qingshan's sword left a trace of blood on Tuoba Shengshan's body.
Tuoba Holy Mountain raised his knee and stepped hard. The ground shook, knocking the four people back.
Tuoba Shengshan laughed and looked at Chen Qingshan with an expression of interest in his eyes.
"It's a nice sword, but it can actually cut me. Does this sword have a name?"
"The world is wide." Chen Qingshan knew that the enemy in front of him was difficult to deal with, but he still responded.
"Is the world wide? I will remember it." Tuoba Holy Mountain said seriously, and slowly took out his weapon.
A blood-colored axe. Tuoba Holy Mountain said that his ax was called Kaitian. As Tuoba Holy Mountain took out Kaitian, his momentum completely exploded. It was the Three Realms.
Chen Qingshan and the four of them felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
Tuoba Holy Mountain smiled, his momentum slowly dropped, and he returned to the state of the early stage of the second realm.
Yi Kaitian pointed at Chen Qingshan and said: "Do you dare to fight with me? Let's see if your open sky cuts off my open sky, or if my open sky breaks yours."
Tian Di Kuan was provoked, and bursts of sword energy appeared from the sword body.
Chen Qingshan stroked the sword lightly and faced Kaitian with the width of heaven and earth.
"If you don't dare, just fight."
The two collided with each other at lightning speed.
"bite."
A crisp sound sounded from where the weapons met.
Tuoba Shengshan clenched his fist, and Chen Qingshan also clenched his fist.
An extremely simple and heavy mountain came from ancient times and emerged from behind Tuoba Holy Mountain.
The red dragon appeared behind Chen Qingshan.
In a collision of pure physical strength, the two of them each punched out, and the ground beneath their feet shattered, creating a crater, and the two retreated.
Chen Qingshan gathered momentum, and sword energy continued to flow out of his body, forming four streams of sword energy.
"Spring Water." Four streams of sword energy flow toward Tuoba Holy Mountain.
"Melting Mountain Pose!" The shadow of the mountain behind Tuoba Holy Mountain rose up, and then merged into Tuoba Holy Mountain's body, and Tuoba Holy Mountain's body slowly grew.
One foot, twenty feet, until fifty feet, he became a giant, and the sky also grew bigger with his body.
Tuoba Holy Mountain held an ax and cut into pieces four streams of sword energy.
Tuoba Holy Mountain's body returned to normal size and looked into the distance.
"The annoying person is here, don't fight anymore, fight again when you have the chance." Tuoba Holy Mountain carried the ax and disappeared.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty arrived, followed by at least a thousand monks of the Tang Dynasty.
Qin Zizai and Cheng Pengju went up to talk to His Highness the Crown Prince. Chen Qingshan and the others did not like the Crown Prince, so they left alone.
Chen Qingshan harvested nearly two hundred jade slips in one day of hunting.
Chen Qingshan took out half of it and gave it to Sanzang, but Sanzang refused. Sanzang said that Chen Qingshan was now the Marquis of Taiping, and his ranking in the Winter Hunting Ceremony would affect Chen Qingshan's status in the court.
The dry night of the second day also arrived. Chen Qingshan took out a spark of fire. He couldn't see his fingers when he stretched out his hand. Within two feet of the fire, there was a shelter for the three of them.
Everything was fine until Dao Shisan took out his longevity candle and lit it.
As the longevity candle was lit, the gloomy wind began to rise.
Chen Qingshan felt that countless eyes in the darkness were looking at him, like the longevity candle pointing the direction to those chaotic beings.
The gaze was full of malice, and Chen Qingshan felt cold.
Countless starlights flew out of the burning star demon fire, instantly filling the two feet of fire. The fire was being consumed rapidly, as if the fire was trying its best to resist the existence outside.
It's just that the fire is too small, and the existences outside are now as numerous as the sea. The sea just touches it gently, and the fire goes out.
Chen Qingshan wanted to blow out Dao Shisan's longevity candle, but found that he could no longer move. It seemed that even his own blood was slowly congealing and then turning cold.
The fire of the Eternal Life Candle is still burning slowly, and countless terrifying beings on Beichen Star are slowly awakening and rushing towards Chen Qingshan.
Until a scarred hand stretched out from the darkness and extinguished the flame on the eternal candle.
The man raised fire, and the fire in the star demon's body dispelled the darkness.
The malice and cold feeling on Chen Qingshan slowly faded away, and Chen Qingshan saw a pale face, with pupils one black and one white, pure black and pure white.
This man had short hair, and the clothes he wore were not from this era and were broken into pieces. Chen Qingshan could see that his body was made up of flesh and blood from different corpses.
Seeing Chen Qingshan looking over, the man gave a stiff smile.
"Hello, our name is Ming, which means not to be forgotten."
He had a somewhat special name, but Chen Qingshan noticed that he called himself we, not me.
Chen Qingshan recalled that when he first met Dao Shisan, he said that someone in Beichen Star was looking for him.
Both a person and a group of people.
"You?" Chen Qingshan asked softly.
The man reached out and grabbed Chen Qingshan's palm. It felt very cold, definitely not the temperature a living person should have.
"Yes, we. I saw you yesterday, but at night, you couldn't see me until he lit this candle." Ming pointed to Dao Thirteen and shook the longevity candle in his hand.
Dao Shisan looked at the person in front of him and felt that he seemed to have gotten into trouble.
"Where did you come from?" Chen Qingshan asked again.
Ming thought for a while and pointed to the west, which is the direction of the Forest of Bones and Flesh. "We came from the Forest of Bones and Flesh."
Hearing this, Chen Qingshan's scalp felt numb.
"We don't want to hurt you, we just want you and him to do us a favor. That existence is about to wake up, and we won't be able to support it anymore." Ming said slowly, pointing at Sanzang. Chen Qingshan could feel the tone in Ming's tone.
Fear and sadness.
"Who is that existence you are talking about?" Chen Qingshan asked again.
Ming shook his head and said that he didn't know. Ming said that he was just a combination of countless flesh and bones and had no memory. It was just that every piece of flesh and blood in his body was telling him that he could not let the being on Beichen Star wake up.
"Are they those things in the dead night that choose people to eat?" Dao Shisan glanced outside, feeling a little scared.
At this time, the burning star demon fire had turned into a faint blue, and the sounds of sacrifices, cries, and dragging chains sounded in the dry night.
"No, it's not them, they used to be our tribe." Ming felt a little painful.
Ming's voice gradually became louder, as if he was remembering something.
"Our clan has also had its glory days, but why did it end up being reduced to human beings and ghosts? That is death, which has become a luxury!"
Ming's hand stretched out beyond the firelight, wanting to touch those existences in the dry night.
Tears flowed from two eyes, one black and one white.
