Chapter 83: The Gate of Mysterious Women

Ergou woke up in a daze and found himself lying in a valley, with a human skin book and an embroidered brocade robe in his hand.

He didn't pay much attention to these two objects, but looked around, but he couldn't see anyone. The so-called rebel camp, as well as the cavalry generals, laborers, and civilians were all missing.

Ergou sighed and packed his luggage, but he heard a donkey bray, and then a noisy voice suddenly sounded: "Master! My dear master, you really want to harm my third son!"

Ergou raised his eyes and looked around, only to see a mangy donkey stumbling out of the valley and running towards Ergou like crazy.

"Stop!"

Ergou roared angrily, but asked in disbelief: "... Sande Donkey? How did you... end up like this?!"

It is said that if a horse is thin, its hair will grow longer, and if a donkey is thin, its hair will grow longer.

The three virtues are miserable!
The body that was once as majestic as a dragon and tiger is now extremely thin, every bone in the body is protruding, the bones are like knives, and the body is like a dead branch. Moreover, the originally shiny and smooth fur was now covered in scars and densely packed small tumors, making it very scary to look at.

After Ergou and Sandelu were separated across borders in Meiling, they experienced many twists and turns, and they even suspected that this guy was cheating.

But they didn't meet again until this moment. Although Ergou had many doubts in his heart, it was difficult to question him. He only smiled bitterly and said: "Sande, didn't you defect to Mrs. Lishan? Why did you end up in such a miserable state?"

Sande fell to the ground and wailed: "Master, please don't taint my innocence! How could I ever seek refuge with Shen Laomu! That day I walked into the webway with my master, but I never thought that I would fall into the hands of a very vicious evil woman. Here! That evil woman imprisoned me and spent my whole life in torture and torture. My life was ruined!"

Ergou sighed and said, "It's a shame for you! San De, have you ever let out some of my secrets?"

Sande Donkey was startled when he heard this. He banged his head a few times in panic, but then he muttered in a low voice: "That... Master! I was a little frightened at the time, and I lost some words in confusion. Zui'er, I never intended to betray my master."

Ergou shook his head and said: "That's not what I want to say! Let me ask you, Lishan Lao Muyan, I have some marriage agreement with a woman called Fourth Lady, are you involved in it?"

Sande Donkey quickly shook his head and said: "Master, you should know that although I was a heavenly being in my previous life, I am now a beast. I have long been unable to interfere with the affairs of heavenly beings. How can I dare to play tricks with the fourth lady of the Shenhou family?!"

Ergou sighed and said, "That's the best! Also, what secrets of mine have you revealed to outsiders?"

what?
Sande Donkey was a little dizzy. Master, didn't you want to talk about this just now? !

Ergou didn't care how much of his secrets Sande Donkey revealed, but he still had to ask clearly.

For no other reason than to go through such an interrogation, no one will be able to take advantage of this matter in the future, which can save some trouble.

While listening to Sande Donkey's chatter, Ergou also gave some treatment to the poor alien beast.

Ergou looked at Sande Donkey's body, but converted his spiritual energy into a ball of electric light, and performed electrotherapy to disinfect it. Then he saw a large number of parasites jump out from under Sande Donkey's skin, and then exploded into a ball under the shroud of electric light. Globs of mortar, and the stench of burning rotten protein spread in the air.

More electric light shuttled back and forth in the Sande Donkey's body, and then more parasites were removed. Countless blood and black dirt seeped out from the pores and seven orifices, as if the hair had been chopped off and the marrow had been washed away.

Of course, this is not about shaving off the hair and marrow, it's more like shaving off the fat and scraping the bones.

The Santoku donkey was seriously injured, but it was still alive and breathing. The two dogs had to admire its vitality.

The internal organs were damaged, flesh and blood were missing, and the fascia was calcified. He was as dying as an old man who was about to die.

The two dogs tried to use their spiritual energy to transform some of their vitality and feed it back to the donkey. Unexpectedly, with the resurrection of its flesh and blood, more parasites would hatch out and continue to be entangled in its texture.

This also means that any treatment Ergou can do to him will only be useless, like drinking poison to quench his thirst.

The key is that this is not just a problem of parasites, but also a highly contagious plague.

Ergou drew out his war gun and said to Sande Donkey: "I'm sorry, Sande! I can't save you, but I can only help you escape. I hope you won't suffer from the three bodies in the next life and enjoy boundless freedom!!!"

But Sandoku Donkey kept shouting: "Master! Master! I think I can save him one more time!"

Ergou sighed with a sad look on his face: "You are covered with beetles and plague, and it is hard to get rid of it. There is really nothing I can do!"

Sande Donkey was very frightened and said: "Master, please don't abandon me! I know that the great Bodhisattva has devised a method, which is within my penis. Master only needs to cut it off from me, and I can recover on my own!"

Ergou pretended to be surprised and said: "Since there is such a solution, why didn't Sande say it earlier? It would only ruin the friendship between you and me as master and servant!"

Santoku said dejectedly: "Master, like me, the only good thing in life is the yang - Wan Wushuang. How can you give up if you don't have to?!"

Ergou smiled and said, "Why are you willing to give up now?"

Sande said bitterly: "I have endured the great Bodhisattva's methods. If you die like this, your soul will not escape. It is better to stay with the master, just to be a joyless mule, and still enjoy a few days of peace."

Ergou didn't say much. He only took a short knife and performed a small operation with Sande to remove the parts of his body where his hands and feet had been tampered with.

In this way, the two dogs treated him with electrotherapy again, but the situation was much better than before. At least there were not so many parasites escaping outside.

After disposing of San De Donkey, Er Gou took stock of his gains.

A scroll of longevity books made of human skin records the secrets of various life-extending herbs and ingredients cultivated through sinister and evil methods, including some well-known longevity-extending treasures such as blood ginseng, meat mushroom, Tai Sui, and immortal tree. There are also some similar to life-extending herbs. Twisted and evil things like the Flower Mother (a flesh-and-blood monster derived from a pregnant woman), blood-sucking ghosts, and multi-eyed evil corpses.

A robe to hide from the world, and wear it to sleep, can make people spend the whole year like a sun.

Of course, these two things can be regarded as unexpected gains, and Ergou doesn't care much about them, just keeping them as a collection of rare items.

What really worries Ergou is the starlight that the weird Taoist penetrated into his body in an unknown place.

As the saying goes, if you suffer for no reason, there will be consequences.

In this weird world, Ergou never believed that the Taoist would be kind enough to give him something good.

The only surprising thing is that Ergou didn't find anything wrong with himself.

He plunged his mind into the sea of ​​consciousness and examined the inner part of his soul, only to discover something incredible.

Six unique stars are arranged in the shape of a bucket, like a handle of three treasures, emitting infinite light, permeating its boundless sea of ​​consciousness, like the rise and fall of the sea of ​​stars, time flies by, and it lasts for billions of years.

As soon as this scene came into view, Ergou suddenly said a sentence in his heart: "Nandou Zhusheng! Jiu Qi rises to the sun!"

It's not that Ergou knows this thing, but any intelligent creature that sees this thing will naturally be given the relevant secrets.

This starlight has many names in the human world, such as the book of life and death, the book of blessings and fortune, the book of impermanence, the root of heaven and earth, etc. Or it can also be called the Gate of Mysterious Mother.

Its power is so vast and boundless that even intelligent sentient beings cannot fathom it.

This Xuanmen Gate can be regarded as the first-class treasure in ancient times.

Logically speaking, no one could give it away, but the Taoist gave it to Ergou without cherishing it. The reason was somewhat strange.

This Xuanmen Gate is said to be omnipresent and omnipresent.

It is said that the birth of every sage among human beings is inextricably linked to the Xuan Ni Gate.

But if you know where it is, you will be loved by it.

He exists objectively, but is nowhere to be found. He can only appear occasionally in the hearts of mortals.

But now the Xuanmen Gate told Ergou that its most important function is only one, and that is positioning. As for the purpose of positioning, it is unknown.

The Gate of Xuanmen has only one requirement for Ergou, or it should be said that the intelligent creature that can see the Gate of Xuanmen must meet the most rigid condition, that is, he must first recognize himself as a human being.

That's right!

It's that simple. As long as Ergou recognizes himself as a human being from the bottom of his heart, then he can enjoy some small benefits from Xuanmen Gate.

For example, immortality!
This is really an intoxicating benefit.

Throughout the ages, countless heroes, emperors and generals have been fascinated by it, as crazy as crazy.

Now it's like child's play and it falls on Ergou. Even Ergou can't get excited. After all, he has another cheat that is similar to immortality - reincarnation in ten lives. If others know about it, I'm afraid they will be jealous. of madness.

Perhaps this is what is called death by drought and death by waterlogging.

Of course, the immortality brought by Xuanmen's Gate does not mean immortality. Ergou would still be burping even if his head was chopped off.

Moreover, Xuandemen's self-understanding and judgment of Ergou are quite idealistic.

For example, in the future, even if Ergou can smash the moon with his fist and tear the sun with his hands, as long as his self-awareness is still a human being, the Xuanmen Gate will always look after him.

But if one day, Ergou feels that he is superior to others, thinks that he is an immortal, a Buddha, or a god, but just doesn't want to think of himself as a human being, Ergou doesn't know what the result will be, and he doesn't want to know.

However, Ergou was still a little happy to get such a thing that was full of surprises and frights.

Then Ergou checked himself again, but there was no other problem.

He walked around the valley a few times, saw an exit, and walked there casually.

Behind him, the San De donkey had been silently paying attention, and when he saw this, he shouted: "Master, don't abandon the San De!"

Then Sandoku Donkey staggered after him.

After leaving the valley, what appeared in front of Ergou was a silent and desolate land.

The dry sky was gray and not a single cloud could be seen.

There was no sun, moon or stars to be seen.

The rotten earth is filled with hardened rust-yellow gravel, sometimes mixed with some gray-black glazed stones, and a few weeds with ferocious spikes and poisonous velvet growing on the surface.

Occasionally, the wind blows, accompanied by a howling sound like a ghost crying or a wolf howling, or you can hear some weird whimpering sounds.

This place is really strange. Ergou is sure that there will never be a place like this in the Song Dynasty.

This is obviously not a naturally formed landform. Instead, it is somewhat similar to many apocalyptic fantasy styles that Ergou has seen in his previous life.

Ergou didn't know where this place was. He looked back at Sande Donkey and asked, "Sande, do you know where this place is?"

Sande Donkey shook his head sadly, but said: "Master, I guess this is the ancestral home of the Shenhou clan - Wuyun Dharma Realm, also known as Lishan Garden. Legend has it that the scenery here is beautiful and the products are rich. , known as the back garden of the gods.

But later, evil spirits invaded and completely polluted and eroded the place. In the end, the patriarch of the Shenhou clan had to issue an extermination order and ordered the heavenly army to burn the entire world to ashes. "

Ergou frowned and said, "Wuyun Dharma Realm? How did we get to this place?"

Sande Donkey said: "Then Duke Shen Yang is the last heir of the Shenhou family here. If the master wants to find Duke Shen Yang, he must come to this place."

Ergou said: "I remember that I had already killed Duke Shen Yang, so why did I come to look for him again? Could it be that all my previous experiences were just dreams?"

Sande Donkey said: "The Lord Shen Yang killed by the master before was his external counterpart from the previous era, and cannot be regarded as his true body. Next, we have to find his true body, so that we can finally end the relationship with this person." The grudges of the Shenhou clan."

Ergou said with some confusion: "What you said is a bit strange. I have obviously killed that guy, how can he survive again?!"

Sande said: "My master doesn't know that this is a common characteristic of our heavenly beings. Every heavenly being has the characteristics of one body and two sides.

Just like myself, this body of mine is the external counterpart, and I can fall into the mortal world and enjoy some fun. If you lose it, you can change your identity again at some cost.

At the same time, I also have a primitive body, which is my initial Deva identity. I usually sleep in the camp of gods. "

Ergou said: "You mean, there is a place here where the true form of Shen Yanggong is hidden?"

Sande responded: "It can't be wrong! Duke Shen Yang kidnapped human women, presumably for the purpose of reproducing future generations. Such a thing cannot be accomplished by external contemporaries alone. His heavenly body must come forward in person. ”

Ergou clapped his hands and said: "That's good! At first I thought it was a bit easy to kill that guy, but I didn't expect there was still some clues inside! San De, please help me find him, and this time I'll take care of him!"

Sande Donkey looked at the sky, paced and said: "Master, please don't be impatient. This place is vast. Finding the hiding place of Duke Shen Yang is not a temporary success. It requires long-term planning. It is better to find a place to stay first." , it’s not too late to fix it a bit before taking action.”

Ergou stepped on the crackling gravel and asked casually: "Where can I find a place to stay and repair in such a desolate place where birds don't shit?"

San De Donkey said: "My master doesn't know that although the surface world here has been basically destroyed, there are occasionally some underground ruins left behind, and there may be many treasures hidden inside."

The two dogs knew nothing about this, and immediately followed the advice of San De Donkey to find the ruins of their settlement.
