Curse of the Burial Scripture

Chapter 170: Giving timely help

I think, maybe the blessing in disguise is what we are talking about now. God will never push people directly to death. Wang Tiancheng took away our hope and pushed us to the edge of the cliff, but our small team also united . This is also a gain for me. After all, before this, even though I was a demon slayer myself, I had no experience of being a captain and leading a team. Regarding this, I think I have to admit that I actually underestimated the importance of managing a team before setting off. This also has something to do with the fact that I don’t have a deep understanding of people like Panhu, Hongyue, and Lingxiao. But it is meaningless to say that now - because of my negligence, the villain Wang Tiancheng took advantage of the loophole and gave him an opportunity. I think the problems we are encountering now are caused by myself. Caused by mistakes. And even though I didn’t say anything about this heavy burden and guilt, and no one else mentioned a word at all, I think this was just out of everyone’s understanding, and it didn’t mean that I didn’t have any problems. In the future, I think maybe I will have more adventures in tomb robbing. The lessons learned this time are also an additional gain for me. Anyway, I feel that I will never forget this experience. Returning to reality, when discussing the next plan with everyone, no matter what the plan is, the biggest problem now is still myself. I was like a cancer patient who had reached the end of his life, with almost no choice. Not to mention that I am now in a state of total paralysis due to insufficient energy contained in the Reimu Crystal. After 24 hours, when I can no longer stay in this body, the situation will only change. got worse. Unfortunately, I was worried and read the burial scriptures in my mind again and again, but still could not find the corresponding countermeasures. Before this, for me, the Burial Scripture was actually like a life-saving book. The burial scripture is the essence of the underground burial technique made of steel by our ancestors of the Zhang family. It has been passed down from generation to generation and finally refined into steel. The reason why I have been able to prosper since I first became an underground burial master is because of the blessing of my ancestors. Indeed, according to the records in the Burial Scripture, no matter how miraculous the Burial Scripture is, only those with talent can be qualified to inherit it, but this and hard work are another matter. I feel ashamed to say that because of the help of Burial Scripture, I have avoided a lot of detours. More often than not, I just rely on the Burial Scripture when I encounter a crisis, and I can basically find a solution afterwards, because the knowledge of earth burial techniques contained in the Burial Scripture is so profound that it almost gives me a sense of It feels like the ocean, vast and endless. But after relying on the Burial Scriptures again but not being able to get an answer this time, I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart. Or maybe this is also a calamity included in my destiny. Yes, how can it always be smooth sailing? Sooner or later, we will encounter problems that cannot be solved by relying solely on the Burial Scriptures. This level is full of dangers for me, and if I am not careful, I may lose my soul and pass away. I also asked Ling Xiao, who is also a demon slayer, but he also looked bitter, and it was obvious that there was no good solution. Ling Xiao is different from me. His career classification is even narrower - exterminating demons is what he mainly does. But that's not to say that there are no solutions at all, it's just that all methods require one of the most basic materials - the Reimu Crystal. Without the Reimu Crystal, it would be impossible to solve the problem of substitutes. As for what I should do after my substitute expires, although everyone is trying to help me with ideas, this is not something that ordinary people can think of a solution to. So I said let’s stop discussing it here. Due to Ming Qing Yin Buddha's condition, it was basically impossible to go down the mountain. The only thing we could do was to take one step at a time and rush up the mountain as much as possible. Fortunately, there is Hu Laoliu in the team now. He is very familiar with the terrain of Baiqun Mountain, so we can avoid danger as much as possible. However, just as we were preparing to go back to our respective tents to rest, suddenly the formation used to summon the fox boy began to glow. As we stared blankly at the formation, a bright red light lit up. When we reacted, A fluffy little fat fox appeared in front of us. It was Xiaodouzi who came over. Everyone, including me, looked confused, as if they had no idea why Xiaodouzi suddenly appeared. And Xiaodouzi came bouncing over wagging his big fluffy tail, holding a small bag in his hand. The young master seemed to be in a good mood and was humming a tune with his nose. But he was shocked when he saw me being carried by Panhu, looking half-dead, and immediately asked me what was going on. I smiled bitterly and said that something unexpected happened. Xiaodouzi said speechlessly, look at your dead face, you have encountered an unexpected situation, you are clearly forced into a desperate situation. After that, Panhu put me down. Xiaodouzi was shocked when he saw the fist-sized hole in my abdomen. He touched my unconscious abdomen and asked how it was done. He hadn't seen me for a day. Has it become like this?I no longer had the energy to speak, so I asked Pan Hu to explain the situation to me. Xiaodouzi was stunned for a while. After learning that Wang Tiancheng actually betrayed everyone and fled, he patted my shoulder with great sympathy. "I have long felt that that old man is not a good person. If it weren't for your sake, I wouldn't even look at him. Let me tell you, this young master is also a fairy fox after all. He has such piercing eyes. It’s no joke.” I smiled helplessly and said, since your young master is so powerful, why didn't you tell me earlier that Wang Tiancheng was a traitor? Xiaodouzi frowned, looking a little embarrassed, and immediately changed the topic, but I didn't care. . Looking at Xiaodouzi, I became a little puzzled. I thought that the agreement with him should be to summon him after arriving at the Hidden Mountains. Why did he come here without being summoned? "Tsk tsk, Burial Master, I originally came to you with the idea of icing on the cake, but it seems that I have become your savior - well, when I saw you last time, I found the Reimu Crystal on your body. The energy stored in the stone is running out, so I’ll get you a piece.” "Really? Did you bring the Lingmeng Crystal here?!" My eyes lit up and I shouted subconsciously. But then a feeling of weakness spread throughout my body, and I wilted again. Xiaodouzi took off the small package from his back and spread it out. What is wrapped in this package is indeed a piece of Lingmeng crystal, and it is also a rough stone! I could tell at a glance that it was a rough stone. This is a good thing. Since it is a raw stone, it means that this Lingmeng crystal has just been collected, and the energy contained in it must not have been absorbed yet. Panhu looked at the sparkling Lingmeng spar with a faint hint of blue light. He also looked at me happily and said, Master, will you be saved in this way? I smiled and said of course, that's what the substitute is missing now. As long as I can replace it with a new Reimu Crystal, I can regain my mobility and the wounds on my body can be healed. Xiaodouzi puffed up his chest proudly, saying that it took a lot of effort to get the Lingmeng Crystal. I was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiaodouzi and said, didn't you say last time that Reimu crystals are used to pave floors in the heavens? Why is it so troublesome to get it? Xiaodouzi waved his hands and sighed, that's not the same thing at all. According to King Fox's explanation, although this Lingmeng Crystal is rare in the heaven, things from the heaven cannot be brought to the mortal world or the underworld without permission. Because if this is allowed, it will cause a lot of chaos. After all, unlike the mortal world, there are many good things in heaven. In the mortal world, if dragon veins symbolize the ultimate treasures of heaven and earth, then the heaven itself can be regarded as a dragon vein. In the heaven, if you pass by a piece of grassland, you can plant spiritual grasses that are rare in the mortal world. And because of this, the management of all items in the heaven is very strict. The reason why Xiaodouzi was able to bring over the rough stone of the Kuai Ling Meng Crystal was thanks to the Fox King. Under the cover of the Fox King, Xiaodouzi took a piece of Reimu Crystal in his yard and ran all the way back to the mortal world. Therefore, it won't be able to stay too long during this trip. It must go back and report as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a big deal if it is discovered. I was stunned for a moment, and then asked Xiaodouzi, if that was the case, would you still want to take my current Reimu Crystal back? Xiaodouzi nodded and said of course, otherwise wouldn’t I be miserable if I was discovered? Even my uncle will be affected. Of course, my uncle holds a high position in the heavenly realm, and the Immortal Emperor would not argue with him just by holding a piece of broken stone. However, as the saying goes, it is better to save one trouble than to have more troubles. If possible, no one wants to cause trouble for themselves, let alone their boss. Because such trivial matters have worsened the relationship with the Immortal Emperor, which is not good for anyone. Besides, if all the banished immortals secretly brought things from heaven down to earth in this way, wouldn't there be trouble in heaven? Listening to what Xiaodouzi said so clearly, my perspective on it also changed somewhat. I used to think that Xiaodouzi had a child's mind, but now it seems that this little guy actually knows all the things he should know. Xiaodouzi said that it wouldn’t have any impact on you anyway, right? After all, all you need is the energy in this stone. I said that's what happened, so you can take it away if you want, but won't the Reimu Crystal be discovered without its energy? Xiaodouzi said that I don’t need to worry about this. It is very normal for the energy of Reimu Crystal to be absorbed in the heaven. However, because the environment of the heaven itself is different from that of the mortal world, the richness of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth there is simply unimaginable in the mortal world. Therefore, a piece of Lingmeng crystal that has been exhausted can completely restore its energy in less than a quarter of an hour, so it is Will not be discovered. I was completely relieved to hear what he said - the Fox King was involved in this matter, which meant that it was not just Xiaodouzi who helped me, but also the Fox King's thoughts. I can't thank you enough for that. Although I know that King Fox definitely wants to express his gratitude in this way because Xiaodouzi has been taken care of by me again and again, but my current situation is special, and I am really touched by this kind of act of providing help in times of need.
