Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 562: Eighty-one Great Figures

In the village.

Ajiu found that more and more brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts were missing.

But the people in the village did not forget their existence. There were obvious traces of their life, but they turned a blind eye to them.

This frightened her so much that she cowered in a corner every night.

can not sleep.

And gradually, she always felt that there was a pair of evil eyes, as if staring at her. No matter where she went or where she hid, the evil eyes were still staring at her...

This left her with nowhere to hide or escape.

She was extremely scared.

She told the people in the village, but they thought she was crazy.

Although Brother Xin had always been with her and had gone with her to look for the missing person, she knew that Brother Xin did not agree with her...

How to do?
How to do?
Ajiu kept asking himself.

Oh, look for grandpa. Ajiu suddenly woke up and hurried to the deepest part of the village.

"Ajiu, where are you going?"

Ashin asked, following behind.

"I'll go find Grandpa. He will definitely have a solution."

Ajiu said with hope amidst despair.

Grandpa is not only the village elder, but also a priest and a mysterious wizard.

Grandpa must be able to know what happened in the village and whether there is a terrible evil ghost causing disaster or misfortune.

If this is the case, Grandpa will definitely be able to pray for a solution or expel it.

Then my brothers and sisters will be saved.

Snapped--

Because Ajiu ran too fast and in a hurry, and the rainy weather lasted for more than half a month, the roads in the village were very muddy, and she accidentally fell.

But at this time, she didn't pay too much attention and quickly got up and ran.

"Akiu, slow down."

Asin hurriedly chased after him.

Soon after, the two came to the deepest part of the village, in front of a very gloomy stone house.

Although Grandpa was very kind, the children in the village did not dare to come to the stone house to play, and they seemed to be very afraid of Grandpa...

"Grandpa."

Ajiu shouted loudly.

"Ajiu, come in."

An old and hoarse voice came from the gloomy stone house.

Ajiu and Asin walked into the stone house. It was very dark in the house, and it was difficult to see clearly. There was a cold atmosphere in the air, which made the two shiver.

"Grandpa?"

Jiu looked around in confusion. The stone house was too dark to see where Grandpa was. He asked, "Why didn't Grandpa turn on the light?"

"Ajiu, you are here for your brother, right?"

Grandpa said.

"Grandpa, do you remember my brother?"

Ajiu was extremely excited, as if he had finally found hope.

"Alas, I watched Po grow up, how could I not remember him?" Grandpa sighed, still sitting motionless in the dark, wearing a black robe with strange runes on it, his whole body hidden in the darkness.

"what--"

At this time, Xin screamed and asked in confusion: "A-Grandpa, does Jiu really have a brother? But, but, why don't we remember it?"

"Not only does Ajiu have a brother, you also have a sister, Ani."

Grandpa sighed.

"Grandpa, why are my brother and my uncle missing? Why don't my uncles and aunts remember them? What happened? Is there a ghost haunting them?"

Ajiu asked quickly.

At this time, Grandpa was silent. He was wearing a strange black robe and a bloody bull head on his head, looking a little scary.

……

Inside the secret realm of Dongshan.

Feng Qingyan is looking for the remaining dreams of Emperor Shang when he attained enlightenment.

However, this dream of enlightenment is somewhat difficult to find, unlike the holy image that the saints traced back to its origin, which came to the door on its own.

"Is this the enlightenment dream that Emperor Shang had after he became emperor, or the enlightenment dream that he had before he became emperor?" Feng Qingyan became a little curious.

According to legend, it should be the enlightenment dream of Empress Chengdi.

As time passed, he still did not find the dream in which Emperor Shang attained enlightenment, which made him more and more disappointed.

Why is this?

Emperor Shang was his previous life, so logically speaking...

In disappointment.

He suddenly felt a strong sense of fatigue like a rolling tide, which almost instantly consumed him and made him physically and mentally exhausted.

I am even more exhausted.

He seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

……

"Qingyan, are you cleaning up the land temple so early in the morning?"

A man in his twenties said.

"Brother Han, are you going into the mountains to collect herbs again?" Feng Qingyan smiled and said, "This land temple is too dilapidated. I'll clean it up when I have nothing to do."

The man saw incense, candles and paper money on the altar of the land temple, so he walked over, lit a stick of incense, and said as he prayed: "God of the Land, please bless me to collect good medicine..."

Feng Qingyan smiled suddenly and said, "No sincerity."

"Who said I'm not sincere? I've already burned incense, is that not considered sincerity?" The man said with a smile, inserting the incense stick into the incense burner.

……

I do not know how long it has been.

Feng Qingyan woke up suddenly. Did he fall asleep just now?
Still dreaming, dreaming about past life?
This is indeed a memory from a previous life...

But why did I suddenly fall asleep?

This is in a secret place.

His brows knitted tightly together, but he suddenly found that the memory of his past life seemed to be clearer. There were many details that he had not remembered before, but now he remembered them clearly, as if he had relived his past life.

This……

Feng Qingyan became a little suspicious.

He carefully recalled his past life and found that everything in it was vivid, as if it happened yesterday. He looked around the secret realm. Could it be that the secret realm helped him recover his memory?

It's possible.

At this time, he continued to look for the dream in which Emperor Shang attained enlightenment.

But in the process of searching, he instead comprehended several holy images, which allowed him to see an extremely shocking scene.

He saw the holy stone ship, sailing downward in endless darkness.

Extremely lonely.

He also saw that the holy white light emitted by the stone ship broke through the layers of chaotic black soil and continued to sail deeper into the chaotic black soil...

I don’t know when.

The stone boat stopped at the deepest part of the chaotic black soil.

It seemed that the stone boat could no longer move forward.

At this time, he saw a tall but weak figure walking out from the stone boat. He was wearing gray cloth, was tall, and had a scroll of bamboo slips hanging around his waist.

Although I couldn't see his face clearly, I could feel that he was an old Confucian scholar who was well-read in poetry and books. He exuded an extremely rich literary aura, which made people unable to help but have the urge to worship him, as if he was the source of civilization...

The old scholar did not seem insignificant at all under the thousand-foot-long stone boat.

Very eye-catching.

He seems to illuminate the ignorant world and light up the light of civilization.

at this time.

He broke through the chaotic black soil step by step and disappeared into the deepest part of the chaotic black soil.

After the old scholar disappeared into the deepest part of the chaotic black soil, a series of majestic figures walked down from the stone boat. Some of them were cloth-clothed, some were blue-shirted, some were wearing Confucian clothing, some were carrying zithers, some were hanging swords, some were holding chess pieces, some were holding pens, and some were holding fans...

Every figure exudes a holy aura.

One way, two ways, three ways...

Feng Qingyan saw ninety-nine and eighty-one majestic figures walking down from the holy stone ship one after another, all of them breaking through the chaotic black soil and leaving.

"My fellows... where are you heading?"

Feng Qingyan asked.

These eighty-one majestic and indelible figures may be the legendary philosophers.
