Chapter 112 Body Protecting Stellar Qi Sutra (5000-word chapter, Xie Lubai 5000)(2/3)
Su Anlin could only take out the Long Skin Immortal Scripture again: "Where are the living people? Hurry up and show the way."
[I searched around, but still couldn't find the secret passage here, and I was confused.]
【Can I just leave empty-handed? No, no, no, I can't give up.】
[It suddenly occurred to me that I checked all around, but where is the top of my head? 】
[Yeah, maybe it’s at the top of my head, I’m really a genius.]
Su Anlin looked above his head. At first glance, he saw that there was a stone wall above his head. There was nothing strange about it.
But he suddenly noticed that one of the stones protruded a little outward.
If you don't look carefully, you will definitely be ignored.
Su Anlin subconsciously raised his hand. He was so tall that he suddenly touched the stone and pressed hard.
"Kakaka..."
As if it had touched some mechanism, there was a mechanical rotating sound in the entire tunnel.
Immediately, a stone slab above the head slid little by little, revealing a passage of about one meter.
Su Anlin felt happy and looked behind him.
The Li siblings had retreated early when he was fighting against the human-skinned yin spirit.
He jumped up and slid into the passage.
Inside is a stone chamber with candlelight shining, but the candlelight is running low on fuel and will soon go out.
There were some food piled here, and an old man sat cross-legged on a futon with a sluggish expression.
The old man was wearing Taoist robes, with a blue-grey goatee, disheveled hair, and motionless, like a corpse.
But the old man was obviously not dead.
Upon noticing Su Anlin, his distracted eyes condensed slightly.
"You...kill that human-skinned Yin spirit."
The old man murmured, saliva dripped from his mouth, and his chest was covered with blood.
[Health bar: 9/199]
This bloody mess is a bit too much.
Su Anlin sighed, secretly guessing the identity of the other party.
It should be the master of Yunshan Temple, Tianshui Zhenren.
"The Yin spirit in human skin was killed by me. My name is Su Anlin, and I am friends with Mao Su."
Su Anlin walked over and knelt down, taking out Mao Su's accompanying notes.
"Mao Su was a good boy. Is he dead?"
"Well, he was made into a ghost. I didn't want to see him suffer, so I gave him a ride."
"good."
"You don't seem to be in very good condition, how can I save you?" Su Anlin asked.
"The yin spirit of human skin has penetrated into my body and I can't survive!"
Only then did Su Anlin notice that the old man was hunched over, and something seemed to be moving inside the clothes on his back.
"The human skin Yin spirit is invading your body?" Su Anlin raised his eyebrows.
Ordinary people would have been dead long ago, but the old man was able to survive until now.
"Well. I don't have much time. I just didn't expect that I would meet you before I die."
"Senior, do you have any last words?" Su Anlin asked.
"All of this happened because of the body-protecting Gangqi Sutra!"
"I, Yunshan Temple, can slay demons and eliminate demons by relying on this technique. However, due to the turmoil in the past, only the upper part of the body-protecting Gangqi meridian is available."
"Only the upper part of the body-protecting Gangqi Meridian is not powerful, and it didn't attract others to covet it at that time."
Master Tianshui wiped the blood from his mouth and sighed: "Now that I think about it, that lower skill should not have been found!"
"One day I subdued a water demon. In the hands of the water demon, I accidentally obtained the lower part of the body-protecting Gangqi meridian."
"A few days ago, a good friend of mine came to see me. He is from Black Sword Villa, and he suddenly attacked me. I was caught unawares, and then I was controlled by him and thrown into the tunnel."
"When I woke up, it was already too late, so I escaped here."
Su Anlin frowned: "How did he know that the technique was in your hands?"
"There is a traitor in the temple." Master Tianshui raised his eyes and looked at Su Anlin:
"In the entire Yunshan Temple, the only one who knows that the lower part of the body-protecting Gangqi Meridian has been found is the disciple who went out with me at that time. His name is Shen Xingzhou, and he is my second disciple."
"In other words, it was the Black Sword Villa that Shen Xingzhou told about." Su Anlin nodded: "Has he found the technique?"
"No, I...poof..."
He may have talked too much, and his chest felt tight, and then his health bar flashed.
[Health bar: 7/199.]
Su Anlin said quickly: "Speak slowly."
"We at Yunshan Temple have an ancestral precept, the body-protecting Gangqi Sutra, which is of great importance. It is not allowed... to be stored inside the temple. It is usually stored outside, at home..."
"Senior, what do you mean, you have a family outside?"
[Health bar: 6/199.]
"Yes...yes, do you want it?"
Master Tianshui stared at Su Anlin seriously, "If you don't want it... forget it, just pretend I didn't say it."
Su Anlin: "..."
I didn't even have time to say anything.
"Senior, the Body-Protective Gangqi Sutra is a secret method for subduing and eliminating demons. If no one uses it, it will be a big loss. In the future, there will be fewer and fewer people who can subjugate and eliminate demons."
Su Anlin responded quickly.
"What you said makes sense, but I'm dead anyway."
"This..." Su Anlin was stunned, and stopped beating around the bush and simply said: "Senior, to be honest, I want to protect the Gangqi Meridian. I think this will be of great use to me."
"Besides, if I kill the human-skin Yin spirit for you, it can be regarded as revenge for you. You should be a good person and tell me where to put the body-protecting Gangqi Sutra."
"So you want it." Master Tianshui sighed.
"Senior, if you don't want to give it, forget it." Su Anlin stood up as he spoke:
"Don't worry, Mao Su and I know each other. For his sake, I will help bury their bodies and yours, so that you can rest in peace and not become lonely ghosts."
"You are interested. I tested you just now. If you are a person with evil intentions, you might be able to beat around the bush and say something high-sounding. I disdain to be associated with such people."
[Health bar: 4/199.]
"Senior, that skill is..."
"In...in..."
He sighed: "It's a pity that all my disciples are dead or have become traitors. Such a good technique will be of great benefit to you."
"Senior, you..." Su Anlin was a little anxious.
There is only one breath left, and the ink is still stained.
"You don't have to pity me, it's my fate. It's just my fault that I didn't understand people well at the beginning and accepted an evil disciple."
"Senior, that thing..."
"Don't worry, I can confirm that the technique has not been obtained by Shen Xingzhou."
"Hey, if someone can help me kill this villain Shen Xingzhou, I will feel at ease."
Su Anlin immediately expressed his position: "If I meet Shen Xingzhou, I will avenge you, senior, to repay your kindness for sending me the exercises."
"Okay, this is what you said yourself. What about Black Sword Villa?"
Su Anlin was stunned and said with an ugly face: "I don't know what Black Sword Villa is, but I have dealt with Yin spirits in human skin before, and judging from his tone, even the Yin sect is not afraid of such a behemoth. Senior, if you ask me to deal with it, it is a bit overwhelming. Bar?"
"Haha, I understand. You are very good and did not pretend to agree to me for the sake of the exercises!"
"Senior, I don't like to go around and around, so you don't have to test me anymore. If you continue to linger, I'm worried that you won't be able to resist." Su Anlin said bluntly.
"Yes, I won't test you anymore. My last request." Master Tianyi took out a simple bronze medal: "This is the order of the master of Yunshan Temple. Since you want to learn the Body Protection Gangqi Sutra, then you must be Master of Yunshan Temple, this order will be passed on to you."
"Okay." Su Anlin accepted it and said truthfully: "But senior, let me explain first that I am not interested in creating another Yunshan Temple. My wish is to live a good life."
Su Anlin wasn't talking nonsense. When he came to this world, he just wanted to live a good life.
It's a pity that this world is too difficult and there are too many evil people, forcing him to become like this step by step!
