She was standing in the courtyard in front of the hut, facing the slightly open wooden door. She could smell the fresh scent of grass and trees and feel the warmth of the sun shining on her body. Everything was very real.

"We're here again."

There was confusion in Feng Baobao's big eyes, and she didn't know why she appeared here again.

However, when he looked to both sides, he noticed his companions who had suddenly disappeared before, but their condition was obviously not good. They were standing there stupidly in a row with their eyes closed, looking like they were in a coma.

Including her, there were twelve people present, even Master Lu was among them. Except for True Man Taichu, no one was seen.

“Here’s what happened.”

Feng Baobao blinked her big eyes and found Zhang Chulan standing next to her, also with his eyes closed and a silly smile on his face.

So she grabbed the other person's collar without any hesitation and shook him vigorously, "Hey, Zhang Chulan, wake up, wake up--"

Feng Baobao shouted, raised her hand and slapped the other person's cheek back and forth. The cheek was red and swollen from the slapping, but she was still not awake.

The confusion in her eyes became even stronger, and she seemed a little at a loss.

But at this moment, the old and gentle laughter came from the slightly closed wooden door of the hut again: "Little girl, don't slap your companions again. They are just asleep and immersed in dreams. There is no danger."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall, kind-looking old man pushed open the wooden door and walked out with a smile.

He was dressed in a coarse linen robe, with a wooden hairpin in his white hair. He had a beard like the old Taoist priest, and held a feather fan in his hand. With gentle waves, a breeze blew away his beard.

Feng Baobao stared at the other person with her large almond-shaped eyes. She subconsciously felt a natural closeness with him and even forgot to take out her double swords. She allowed the latter to walk within ten feet of her.

The tall old man looked at her, and didn't say anything at first, but then he suddenly smiled: "The divine firefly is introverted, returning to its original nature, flawless and pure."

"I never thought there was such a person with such talent in the world who could walk out of my Eight Diagrams Formation without any injury."

When Feng Baobao heard this, her smart brain started to work and she immediately understood what was going on. She pointed at her companions and said, "They became like this, is it all your fault?"

The tall old man laughed and said, "Yes, it's the old..."

Before he could finish his words, he felt a flash before his eyes and a cold edge came straight towards his thin neck. When he looked more closely, he found that it was Feng Baobao who chopped with one hand.

! !

The old man quickly dodged and retreated to the front of the hut. Looking at Feng Baobao who was approaching and slashing at him again, he waved his hands and said, "Little girl, don't be anxious. I have no intention of harming you!"

As he finished speaking, the kitchen knife that had been getting bigger and bigger in front of his eyes finally stopped three inches away from his forehead.

Feng Baobao tilted her head and said coldly, "Are you trying to defraud me?"

The tall old man swallowed his saliva, used the feather fan in his hand to gently push away the kitchen knife, and said with a wry smile: "I am Zhuge Liang, at this age, can I still deceive you?"

Feng Baobao asked doubtfully: "Zhuge Liang? The grave we are going to dig is yours?"

The old man who called himself Zhuge Liang nodded helplessly, and pointed with his feather fan at the dozen or so members of the Longhushan tour group who were standing there in a daze: "My precious 50th generation grandson is also in there, how can I harm you?"

"Don't worry, this is just a small test. I will control the degree and give them rewards."

Feng Baobao looked the other person up and down. Even though the other person had no evidence and was just talking, she couldn't help but believe him. So she turned her hand and put the kitchen knife back into her arms.

Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The last time someone pointed a knife at me was when I was in the Eastern Wu over a thousand years ago."

Feng Baobao added: "Don't lie to me. I'm very smart. If I find out that you are committing fraud, I will kill you."

Zhuge Liang nodded repeatedly, stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a faint white light emerged from the bodies of the dozen or so people who were still unconscious. A transparent bubble condensed in the space above their heads, with images emerging in it.

Feng Baobao turned her head and saw the scene of everyone through the bubbles.

In the painting above Zhang Chulan's head, the other party was squatting outside a small mud house, happily picking at the bowl of rice in his hand and looking at the steaming braised pork elbow. Beside him, there was an old man and a thin man who were also squatting.

The three of them moved in unison, looking like a family.

Feng Baobao recognized the old man. It was Zhang Xilin, who had entrusted his life to her before his death. She pointed in the direction of Zhang Chulan and turned to Zhuge Liang and said, "What is that? Isn't his grandfather dead? I killed him myself."

Zhuge Liang said: "These are their inner demons, they are fake, and they are also a test."

Feng Baobao said: "If it's a dream, you will wake up."

Zhuge Liang nodded, "I was waiting for them to wake up, and you're already awake."

Feng Baobao tilted her head and looked at the rest of her companions.

In the picture of bubbles floating in the air.

Zhuge Qing can be seen walking on a long staircase that seems to have no end. He has a rough beard on his face and seems to have matured a lot since they last saw each other.

Zhuge Liang said: "He has been on the road of pursuing the Three Flames of True Fire for ten years, but he still can't reach the end. Maybe he will never find it in this lifetime."

It can be seen that a three-headed ghost with red hair, green face and fangs is in a huge collection hall, excitedly slaughtering.

Zhuge Liang said: "This is a natural killer. He was possessed by the devil but is gradually awakening."

It can be seen that Old Master Lu has a smile on his face, holding a tray of dumplings, and walking towards a large table. There are a circle of unfamiliar faces sitting at the table, including Lu Linglong.

Zhuge Liang said: "It is lonely at the top. What he pursues is nothing more than family affection and reunion."

Lu Linglong was seen in an endless pool of blood, with two horns on her head, her body red, and a look of fear in her eyes. In the pool of blood, there were bodies lying in all directions, and they were all familiar people, including Old Master Lu, Master Taichu, Zhang Chulan, Zhang Lingyu, Zhi Jinhua, ...

Zhuge Liang said: "She hates herself and is also afraid of herself, and dares not face it."

You can see Zhi Jinhua squatting on the side of the road in tattered clothes, with flies and bugs crawling all over her body. With her black hands, she is fighting with a wild dog for a meat pie that she had dug out of the trash can.

Zhuge Liang said: "She couldn't escape the shadow of her childhood, so she fell again at this moment."

A girl wearing a white dress and with long black hair, who looked like a doll, was seen holding a stuffed bear in her hands, running anxiously in a dark corridor. Behind her, a sharp laugh came from a bald middle-aged man with lustful eyes.

Zhuge Liang said: "She longs for love, but cannot get true love, and is also sunk in the shadow of her childhood."

Zhang Lingyu was standing in the middle of a group of disciples, bowing down to the "Heavenly Master" standing high on the roof. Looking at the Heavenly Master again, it turned out to be Zhang Chulan, who was smiling frivolously.

Zhuge Liang said: "He thinks he carries too many expectations, so he is always afraid of failure."

It can be seen that Chen Duo was trapped in the dark cave, surrounded by the corpses of children who had stopped breathing, maggots that continued to multiply in the strong stench of corpses, and rats that shuttled back and forth.

Zhuge Liang said: "She hated darkness and hated being bound, but in the end she bound herself with her own hands."

It can be seen that Ma Xianhong has taken off the bandage on his head and is walking in the city park, talking and laughing with an unclear figure, looking more relaxed than ever.

Zhuge Liang said: "He hopes that people will put aside their prejudices and hope to find his family."

Wang Ye was wearing Winnie the Pooh pajamas and a nightcap, sleeping soundly on the bed, with sunlight shining through the slightly drawn curtains and onto his side. On the wall above the bed hung a family photo, and everyone in the photo was smiling happily.

Seeing this, Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his head and said, "This kid is really interesting. He has been sleeping from the beginning until now. What he pursues is such an ordinary life."

……

Feng Baobao watched the illusions of his companions one after another under Zhuge Liang's explanation. Finally, he fell into a brief silence and suddenly said, "Oh, there is still one person missing. Where is Taichu Zhenren? Why is he missing?"

Zhuge Liang's face froze, he sighed with a wry smile, raised his hand and pointed to the sky and said, "He has entered the battle formation, but it doesn't count as entering the battle formation. Anyway, I can't stop him, he has already gone to heaven."

Chapter 225: A dream of life, puts all worries to rest!

A dream, a life of ease

Zhang Taichu, who chose to join the battle on his own, did not appear in the courtyard of "Zhuge Liang" like the others, but came to a place in the dark where no one should set foot.

At this moment, he put his hands behind his back, his body was as fast as a streak of light, and he was moving very quickly towards the Eight Formations Divine Diagram that covered billions of miles in the universe.

That strange formation was so huge and so far away, covering countless planets. Even though Zhang Taichu had been flying for a long time, he still hadn't gotten close to it.

He didn't know where he was, nor did he know whether he was really moving forward in the universe. He couldn't even be sure whether this was the world he was in.

Just relying on some vague feeling, he involuntarily went towards the Divine Diagram of the Eight Formations in the depths of the universe, knowing that there must be something astonishing and magical hidden therein!

And in this process, he could feel more and more that the strange power that was subtly acting on him seemed to be issuing an invitation.

Zhang Taichu didn't care about it at first. With his strong life foundation, he could easily resist it. But as time passed, one day, two days... when the feeling became stronger and stronger, his curiosity was finally aroused.

"Go and have a look."

As Zhang Taichu flew towards the huge divine map at the end of the universe, he closed his eyes slightly, relaxed his mind, and allowed the feeling to drag him into the dream.

-

The mountain behind Longhu is lush and green.

It was the time for morning lessons. A group of young Taoist priests were sitting on cushions, chanting to the scriptures in front of the table. However, there was an empty seat among them, which seemed a bit abrupt.

But the old Taoist sitting in the front was already accustomed to this and didn't care about it. He just squinted his eyes and started explaining from time to time.

……

In a large forest at the back of the mountain, in an open area, there was a wooden fence, in which there were several delicate-looking chickens, clucking, growing up.

The chicken had a strange appearance. Its exposed paws were snow-white, and its body was mostly covered with white feathers with black spots. It had three long white feathers on its head and three long pure black feathers on its raised butt.

Each chicken walked like a proud aristocrat, with its head and chest held high, and clucking, and even the sound was much clearer than that of ordinary domestic chickens.

But at this moment, a phantom suddenly flashed by, and a rooster was drinking spring water with its head down. Before it could scream, it was caught, and only a few newly grown feathers slowly fell down.

Its relatives immediately became anxious and cackled, flapping their wings hard to try to catch up with it. Unfortunately, they could only get less than a foot into the air before falling to the ground one after another, and could not even fly over the four-foot-high fence.

……

On the other side, there was a short Taoist priest who was incredibly fast, holding a fat chicken he had just caught in his hand. After a moment, he had already left the chicken coop, turned a few corners, and came to an empty stone wall.

There, there were several figures who had been waiting there for a long time, and they had lit a bonfire.

"Hurry, hurry, the fire is burning fiercely, let's put it out quickly, quickly and decisively, if we are any later, the master will be back!" A tall, young Taoist with a sharp face waved to the short Taoist.

There was a little Taoist boy standing by. He raised his delicate face, blinked his big eyes and said, "Brother, this is Master's most precious Snow-Walking Pearl. If we eat one, what will happen..."

The tall Taoist priest with straight features smiled elegantly, hugged the little Taoist boy, patted his shoulder and said, "What snow-walking pearl? It's just a pheasant."

"Little Taichu, just eat without worry. This is a good opportunity to replenish your body. If anything goes wrong, your Senior Brothers Jinzhong and Huaiyi will take care of it for you."

At this time, Tian Jinzhong on the other side curled his lips and said, "Zhang Zhiwei, you want to clear yourself of all blame. What? You came up with the idea of ​​eating chicken. If something goes wrong, let Huaiyi and I take care of it."

Young Zhang Zhiwei laughed and winked, "Don't worry, if something goes wrong, I'll take the brunt of it. Master has spanked me a lot anyway."

The short Taoist priest with a big nose ran over with the chicken, stopped in front of the crowd, and said breathlessly: "Next time, we must change someone! This feeling of stealing chickens and dogs is really uncomfortable!"

Zhang Zhiwei gave him a thumbs up, "As expected of a big-eared thief, this efficiency is so high, flying on the grass."

Zhang Huaiyi laughed unhappily.

Only the inconspicuous little Taoist boy sitting in the middle of the three people quietly watched the three brothers talking to each other, laughing and scolding, and slowly pursed his lips.

In those black and white eyes, the childishness disappeared, and a look of emotion that was inconsistent with his age emerged.

"Knock on the door of my heart. Is this why you brought me here?"

Young Zhang Taichu murmured to himself, looking at Tian Jinzhong, who had all his limbs intact, and Zhang Huaiyi, who had a lively smile on his face.

This extremely real scene made him feel mixed emotions and a sour feeling in his heart, so he raised his sleeves and shook them.

Everything in front of me shattered and turned into a vast expanse of white space.

The next moment, his eyes flashed and he came to another scene, which was in a dim cave. Spring water was dripping, mixed with a smell of blood.

Zhang Taichu felt his body was normal and looked at the scene that he had never seen before in his memory. He took a step forward with some curiosity.

As he went deeper, he could faintly hear the sound of fighting, and then a very tragic scene appeared before his eyes.

All around me were corpses lying in all directions on the ground. Their deaths were horrible, as they had all died suddenly in the fight.

Zhang Taichu looked down, then his pupils shrank and his face immediately turned cold. He easily divided the corpses into two groups.

On one side were Chinese monks wearing coarse linen clothes and training jackets.

There are also strange people from the island country who are dressed strangely and wear samurai swords on their waists.

With just one glance, his face tensed up and his fingers trembled slightly, making him look very excited.

At this moment, he understood clearly in his heart that he had been "brought to" that era of war, when people of noble character and lofty ideals bravely braved the tide and drove out the Japanese pirates!

At that time, due to the bottleneck of his martial arts, he was trapped in the cave and couldn't get out, which resulted in a three-year gap. He also missed the time when China needed righteous men to stand up the most, and indirectly harmed Tian Jinzhong and Zhang Huaiyi.

Even after so many years, he still feels aggrieved about it, but he keeps it in his heart without any way to express it.

But now, the mysterious power of the Eight Diagrams directly dug these out and laid them out nakedly in front of him!

Chapter 226: Battle of Mianshan, Wu Gensheng, the truth behind his death

At this moment, Zhang Taichu had a complicated expression. He took another step and continued to walk inside.

All he saw were the miserable corpses and broken pieces. After turning a corner, a scene appeared before his eyes.
