Chapter 251 Broken Star
When Gu Mingdong left the house, Zheng Tong moved a stool and sat at the door.
Although after so many years, he also knew in his heart that Gu Mingdong was capable, and once wanted to take him under his sect as a personal disciple, but it was a pity that Gu Mingdong didn't have this idea.
After a long time, Zheng Tong realized that without mentioning Fengshui Xuanshu, Gu Mingdong might be better than him, so he didn't mention it again.
But today is different.
Zheng Tong looked up at the sky. After days of heavy snowfall, it cleared up. Originally, the sky tonight was cloudless and the starry sky was bright, but now wisps of black clouds came out from nowhere, covering the vast starry sky.
On a moonless night, the sky and the earth seemed gloomy, and Shanghe Village was shrouded in dark clouds.
The bad premonition in his heart didn't fade away, on the contrary, it intensified, which made Zheng Tong restless and looked behind the mountain from time to time.
He hoped that Gu Mingdong would go down the mountain earlier, but he waited and waited, but there was still no one.
Suddenly, there was the faint sound of wooden warehouses in the mountains, and the birds living in the forest were startled and flew into the sky with a clatter.
Zheng Tong's heart skipped a beat, and he stood up abruptly.
"No, we can't wait any longer."
If something happens to Gu Mingdong, it will be too late even if he smashes his old bones.
Before Zheng Tong could act, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be attracted, and they all rushed to the back mountain. From a distance, it looked like countless dark clouds.
Zheng Tong's heart tightened: "It's over!"
He couldn't care about anything else, and rushed into the twins' room: "Ah Xing, Achen, get up quickly."
"Grandpa Zheng, what's wrong?" Gu Liangxing asked in a daze.
"Your father went up the mountain, maybe something happened to him, we have to help." Zheng said.
Gu Liangchen was also in a daze at first, but when he heard this, he suddenly turned over and got up: "What, what is my dad doing up the mountain on New Year's Eve?"
"Don't ask, let's go and have a look." Zheng said.
The twins hurriedly put on their clothes and went out. When the three of them reached the foot of the mountain, they suddenly looked up and saw the dark clouds in the mountain twinkling, and there were countless stars flashing in it.
"What, what is this?" Gu Liangxing was surprised from ear to ear.
Gu Liangchen looked in that direction, but thought of that weird mountain stream: "It must be there."
Before the three of them entered the back mountain, a loud voice suddenly came out.
Near the Sapphire Lake, the mist has become incredibly thick, Gu Mingdong swam in it, and even had the illusion of sticking out of the lake.
After the superpower broke out, the energy accumulated over the years dissipated, like a plant whose tissue fluid had been drained, hanging limply on Gu Mingdong's shoulder.
The effect of the explosive big move is also very impressive, those shattered white spots are scattered in the water mist like stars, dispelling the black mist.
This gave Gu Mingdong a chance to breathe, and he kicked the person who was entwined away with a flying kick.
In terms of force value, no matter whether it is the strengthened Wu Laosan or the young and strong Wu Jie, it is impossible to be Gu Mingdong's opponent, let alone the old and frail Patriarch Du.
But in this place, the power and speed they exploded surpassed Gu Mingdong in a short period of time.
Three people besieged, which made Gu Mingdong stretched.
Starlight fell little by little, and the existence of white stars, like a protective mountain, enveloped Gu Mingdong.
The three irrational people had no choice but to fight each other.
Gu Mingdong panted slightly and looked around, but the water mist was so dense that he couldn't see clearly at all. He just vaguely noticed that those people who were kicked out by him just now woke up one after another.
At that time, Gu Mingdong confiscated his strength, and those people were injured to some extent, but compared to their accomplices who were shrouded in water mist, they were lucky, and now they slowly regained their senses.
"What the hell is this?"
"What should we do now?"
"Where's the captain, that bastard won't run away by himself?"
"Then what should we do, run away too?"
"Fart, I haven't got the money yet!"
The team members who escaped from death immediately forgot the fear just now when they heard Qian, and their eyes fell on the suitcases faintly visible in the mist.
On the way, they saw Master Du opening the suitcase, and there were stacks of cash in it, which should have been their wages.
Money can turn ghosts around. This group of people are blood-thirsty in the first place, and they follow all the way for the sake of money. How can they just leave now.
"Damn it, let's take the money and leave."
They don't care whether Patriarch Du is dead or not, but they should never lose their money.
"But it's too evil there, what if you can't get out if you go in?"
"Are you fucking stupid, take off the belt, we are divided into two groups, one group goes in to get the money, and the other group stays outside, if something goes wrong, we will drag people out."
After thinking of a way, the team members acted immediately.
Except for those who were seriously injured and couldn't move, the rest of them had red eyes, staring closely at the looming suitcases.
What Gu Mingdong didn't expect was that there are people in this world who really want money and don't want their lives. The people who were rescued by throwing out with great difficulty just now entered this place again for money.
By the time he found out, it was too late.
The belt obviously didn't play its due role, but all those who were greedy, except those who lay down and couldn't move, all fell into the illusion again.
The arrogant laughter came, Gu Mingdong thought something was wrong, and the sixth sense saved his life.
Mu Cang's voice continued, so Gu Mingdong had to dodge away, ignoring other things, and saving his life was the first priority.
Blood seeped into the ground again, this time the thick black mist made it impossible for Gu Mingdong to save their lives.
"This group of bastards, it's okay to die by themselves, this is too bad."
Sure enough, under the nourishment of the blood, the black mist dispelled by the supernatural power seemed to be vigorously active after taking the Shiquan Dabu pill.
There was even a black mist entangled with Gu Mingdong, and the supernatural power slapped it angrily, but the black mist tried again and again, obviously not paying attention to the little guy who had consumed energy and turned back into a bud.
Anger rose in Gu Mingdong's eyes, and Hei Wu acted like a cat teasing a mouse, treating the two of them as something in his pocket.
Although Xiaonianya is disobedient and likes to throw temper tantrums, but he took two lifetimes to nourish and grow up bit by bit, the little guy who depends on each other for life, how can he be bullied like this.
With a flick of the wooden stick, the black mist was hit for a while and had to be pushed away.
On the other side, scenes of people dying for money and birds dying for food are happening again and again.
One side is constantly worn down, but the other side is nourished by fresh blood. As each person lay down, even Wu Jie was hit and fell directly to the ground.
Wu Jie felt that his blood was uncontrollable, flowing rapidly, and at the moment of life and death, he finally had a moment of sobriety.
Regret is not enough to describe his mood at the moment.
Wu Jie finally knew that everything was less important than being alive. He had sacrificed so much to gain, and he might not have the rest of his life to enjoy it.
Suddenly, Wu Jie saw Patriarch Du from the corner of his eye. His face was hideous, and there were a few holes in his body, but he continued to dig without knowing it.
Those pampered hands were covered with blood, and even the nail shells fell off, but Patriarch Du didn't care about it.
A glint of ferocity flashed in Wu Jie's eyes, the crisis of dying forced him to burst out with enormous energy.
"bump!"
The power of the explosive desire to survive caused Wu Jie to explode at the moment of life and death. He actually knocked Patriarch Du unconscious and dragged away the necklace around his neck and shoulders.
The moment he held the necklace, Wu Jie's mind became sober, and the surrounding black mist bounced off a bit with some scruples.
Wu Jie crawled out on hands and feet, he knew this was his only chance.
Just when he was about to leave the sapphire range, Wu Jie's face showed the joy of escape from death. Before he could climb out of the most critical part, he suddenly felt pain in his ankle.
Wu Jie turned his head back in horror, only to see Wu Laosan's withered hands tightly grabbing his ankles, making a wheezing sound.
When the black mist poured out in large quantities, Gu Mingdong knew that something was wrong.
Especially when the ability was consumed, and the movement of those living people disappeared bit by bit, the black mist no longer scattered, but surrounded him full of malice, like looking at fish on a chopping board.
In the dense water mist, Gu Mingdong once again felt suffocated.
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was reality or an illusion.
The weird and ethereal sacrificial song sounded, and an ancient picture scroll appeared in front of Gu Mingdong.
Surrounding the blue gem lake, there are towering altars one after another. Blood is injected from the bronze tripod on the altar and flows into the blue gem lake.
No matter how bright red and thick the blood is, the sapphire lake seems to be able to digest it, and the bloody streaks pouring in will soon disappear.
Over time, the sapphire, which seems to be able to hold everything, can't bear the continuous malice, like a lake of pure gemstones, strands of red blood began to appear.
The people on the altar found out, they became anxious and tried their best to save it.
But it's too late.
From prosperity to destruction, from holy spirit to filth, everything changed so quickly.
The sapphire, which was originally inexhaustible, has now become their confidant's serious trouble, and the pervasive blood color has turned into a black mist, entangled those who sacrificed.
As a last resort, the bronze tripods were pushed into the sapphire lake one by one.
Gu Mingdong saw that they were collecting Buddha bones, using these crystallizations of the Holy Spirit as objects of suppression, and completely suppressing this "polluted" area.
The group of worshipers decreased one by one, and in the end, only the Bai family remained.
In the picture scroll, the Bai family knelt on the altar, presented the ancient scroll high up, telling their responsibilities, they will be the gate of suppression.
Time flies, time flies, the Bai family passed on from generation to generation, but began to forget the responsibility of history, from the gate of suppression to the guardian of the stone.
The lessons of history have been forgotten, and the sapphire lake is so clear and pure that no one knows that it has been polluted, and it has become the nightmare and fear of countless people.
Some people even envy the Bai family, because the "Buddha bones" they guard contain supreme power.
Finally, the troubled times came, and the Bai family fell into internal and external troubles.
Gu Mingdong watched helplessly as one after another the Buddha bones flowed out. The Bai family thought they borrowed them, but they never came back. Even Patriarch Bai didn't know how serious consequences his momentary soft-heartedness would lead to.
Boom.
Gu Mingdong woke up from the mysterious and mysterious illusion, and the letter that had been hidden in his lapel suddenly flew up.
This ancient scroll has been retouched time and time again, making Gu Mingdong mistakenly believe that it is from the same age as the family letter.
But now, he realized that it was completely different. No wonder Zheng Tong knew the ancient and modern, but he couldn't decipher it.
Because what is recorded on the ancient scroll is not any kind of text, but a formation guarded by the Bai family.
The black mist that was released, the white stars that erupted from the supernatural power, and the pure blood on Gu Mingdong's body, under the struggle and entanglement of the three, finally activated the last protection lock.
The power of the ancient scroll soared into the sky, and those scattered white stars seemed to have found their mother, and returned to the scroll one after another, just like the vast stars finally found their orbit.
The black mist seemed vulnerable.
All this happened suddenly, but Gu Mingdong didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief when he realized that the ancient scroll was working, and what was being extracted was his vitality.
If this goes on like this, if the black mist has not been suppressed, he will be drained first.
Gu Mingdong gritted his teeth, and returned to the most difficult time in the last days in an instant, and it seemed to be the same.
"Dad!" A voice came through the mist.
Gu Mingdong woke up suddenly, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Don't come over!"
However, Gu Liangchen only saw the scene so dense that it formed mist, and he couldn't see the traces inside it at all, so he subconsciously wanted to rush in.
"Wait!" Zheng Tong grabbed the child.
"My dad is inside." Gu Liangchen raised his eyebrows anxiously.
"You will only add to the chaos if you go in." Zheng Tong scolded.
It was the first time for Gu Liangxing to see such a scene. After being shocked, he shouted anxiously: "What should we do now? Do we have to wait for the police to come, but they don't know when they will come?"
Zheng Tong's face darkened, and he looked up at the starry sky: "Maybe there is still a way."
After many years, Zheng Tong showed his Feng Shui Xuanshu housekeeping skills for the first time, calculated quickly, and soon he found the door of life.
"Ah Xing, Ah Chen, listen to my order and stand at the designated place."
The twins moved quickly, and Zheng Tong pondered: "It may be dangerous."
"As long as it can save Dad, even if it takes my life." Gu Liangchen said without hesitation.
Gu Liangxing didn't speak, but his eyes were determined.
Zheng Tong laughed: "A Dong has raised two good children."
"Fortunately, there are two good boys of you who can give him a chance of life."
You must know that these two children are precious fates, so that they can be suppressed.
Gu Mingdong doesn't know everything outside, he only knows that his children are just a few feet away, if they come in, they will be swallowed by this place, just like what happened before.
How could this be!
This is a child he has worked so hard to raise little by little, how can he lose in this place.
The more painful it was, the more it aroused Gu Mingdong's anger. His desire to survive and his sense of responsibility as a father made him burst out with infinite courage.
The sky was covered by dark clouds, but there were stars shining faintly during the period.
Suddenly, the Buddha bone that Wu Jie held tightly in his hand turned into a shooting star and quickly returned to Gu Mingdong.
In Shanghai far away, the joy of the New Year's Eve has not yet dissipated.
Yan Hai and Hei Mei had coaxed three children to sleep. They were talking and laughing around the stove when Hei Mei's expression suddenly changed.
Yan Hai said a few words but didn't see an answer, so he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Heimei got up and opened the window, looked up into the distance, she firmly held the bead she had been carrying all along.
"It's so cold, why did you open the window? Is it too stuffy in the room?"
The black girl didn't answer him.
"Little sister, what's wrong with you, don't scare me?" Yan Hai keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Heimei turned her head, her eyes were dark: "Brother Hai, someone is calling me."
Yan Hai frowned and said: "What are you talking about, no one is calling you."
He walked over and looked outside, and said with a smile: "It's already midnight, everyone is asleep."
But the black girl knew that this was not an illusion, it was her blood boiling, her blood relatives needed help, she didn't know the reason, but the seeds rooted in her blood were rapidly sprouting.
She turned her head to look at the starry sky, and let go of her hand: "I have stolen it for more than ten years, if you need it, take it all away."
"Take what, steal what?" Anxiety filled Yan Hai's heart.
Heimei turned her head and smiled, but the next moment she was so soft that she fell to the ground.
"Little sister!" Yan Hai exclaimed, and suddenly caught his wife, but suddenly found that his wife's streamlined red rope was empty.
In the alley not far away, Fifth Sister was coaxing old man Bai to rest.
Old man Bai kept asking, "Xiao Wu, are Jun Jun and Shu Shu back?"
During the festive season, they miss their relatives a lot, and when the festival comes, it is the most uncomfortable time for the two people who depend on each other.
Fifth Sister knew in her heart that the two people they were waiting for would never come back.
She suppressed the soreness in her heart, and comforted her with a smile: "They are on the way, the old man should go to sleep first, maybe they will come back when you wake up."
But old man Bai refused, and stubbornly sat at the door and waited.
When Fifth Sister wanted to persuade him again, she suddenly saw him standing up abruptly.
Old man Bai, who had been confused for many years, regained his clarity at this moment.
Fifth Sister remembers that even when he was young, Mr. Bai was confused, otherwise Bai Shu would not have disappeared.
But at this moment, old man Bai's eyes are wise and sober.
"Father?"
Old man Bai turned his head to look at her: "Xiao Wu, I feel that Jun Jun and Shu Shu will never come back again."
"It's Yuanhe's fault. He thinks he is the most sober, but he doesn't know that his selfishness will kill the Bai family and cause the world to face a catastrophe."
"Old man, what nonsense are you talking about, the ancestor Yuanhe died not long ago."
Old Man Bai didn't answer, he looked up at the starry sky: "I've seen him before."
"Our team is burdened with sins and lives in a daze, but they are burdened with hatred. After so many years, we have forgotten too many things, but they always remember them."
"Old man, what are you talking about, what crime, what hatred?"
The old man Bai said with a bitter smile: "He is right, everyone has to pay for what they have done."
"Xiao Wu, thank you for taking care of me for so long, I don't need it in the future, I'm going to see Junjun and Shushu."
These words made Fifth Sister's heart skip a beat: "Old man, you..."
But old man Bai had already stepped forward slowly, opened his hands, and made a strange gesture.
Fifth Sister wanted to step forward to stop him, but was fixed in place by his eyes, and could only watch him doing weird dances in the yard.
A white-haired old man dancing was supposed to be unattractive, but Mr. Bai's dance had a strange rhythm, which even made people feel--sacred.
But every step he took made Fifth Sister feel terrified.
In the mansion in the middle of the mountain in Xiangjiang, Du Zhen and Du Pingping, brother and sister, were restless. Du Zhen kept going around in circles. Du Pingping frowned and said, "Brother, there is nothing you can do if you are in a hurry."
"What the hell did father do? Why did he take the risk of smuggling back while leaving his huge family business alone?"
Du Pingping hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Brother, have you ever thought about what's in that room?"
Du Zhen looked up at his sister.
"Father is not here, why don't we go in and have a look."
Du Zhen frowned and said, "But my father said that no one is allowed to enter without his permission."
"Now we are the only ones here. If I don't tell you, if you don't tell me, how would father know?"
Du Pingping said again: "Aren't you curious?"
The siblings looked at each other and quickly reached an agreement.
The two of them entered the secret room layer by layer. The code locks outside were relatively easy, but after waiting for the last floor, the brother and sister tried many codes and they were all wrong.
"Shouldn't it be forgotten?" Du Zhen couldn't help but say.
But Du Pingping said: "The things we did in the company have already torn face with my father. This time he will not have good fruit from us when he comes back."
"After all, we are his only children."
Du Pingping's face turned cold: "Really?"
Du Zhen's body trembled slightly.
"Brother, how many years older than me are you, you must still remember what a huge family the Du family used to be."
"Father is not only a mother but also a wife. At that time, I only remember five or six younger brothers and sisters. Not to mention that after he came to Xiangjiang, how could it be possible for a person like him not to marry a wife and have children."
"But after many years, after my father took us over, our younger brothers and sisters all disappeared."
Du Pingping naturally had no affection for those half-siblings, especially when the head of the Du family left their siblings in the inland to suffer, but took those children away instead.
But when they came to Xiangjiang, those people disappeared. Du Pingping once asked about it, but Patriarch Du only said it lightly.
"They, didn't they all die of illness?"
"Do you really believe this?" Du Pingping said coldly, "Xiangjiang's medical conditions are better than those in the mainland, and those siblings are not weak. How could it be such a coincidence."
"I went to visit Qian Zhiyi that day, and only then did I have the answer in my heart."
Du Zhen shivered: "What do you mean?"
Du Pingping looked at her brother: "Brother, our father has already gone crazy. What he did to Qian Zhiyi, he may have done to his own children."
"He, is he crazy? Those are all superstitions."
"If we don't believe it, it's fine for father to believe it."
Du Zhen turned to look at the door, and suddenly felt ruthless: "Try again, if it doesn't work, just blow it up."
The brothers and sisters knew that their father's hands were not that clean. The Du family had a lot of guns and explosives. Now that their father was away, they were the real heirs, so naturally no one stopped them.
After the blast exploded, and after seeing the contents clearly, even though they had already been mentally prepared, the expressions of the brothers and sisters still changed drastically.
Du Zhen was trembling all over, it was fear and nausea.
Du Pingping couldn't bear it either, and threw herself to the side to vomit.
"What is this!" Du Zhen was trembling all over, "No, it can't be discovered by others, and it must be disposed of completely."
The brothers and sisters quickly reached an agreement that no matter how crazy their father was, if these things were discovered, then their Du family would really be completely destroyed.
What they didn't know was that their handling would cut off Patriarch Du's only chance.
When all this happened in Du's mansion, Qian Zhiyi, who was in the hospital and on a ventilator, finally took his last breath.
One ebbs and another, Gu Mingdong's exhausted body in the desperate struggle gradually gains some strength.
