Volume 4: The Cruel Truth, The Rotten Soul 15, Ghost Emperor Star

To Yan Li's surprise, three slender women walked out behind Gu Shiyu, all of whom were veiled, one in a purple shirt, one in white, and one in blue.

The veiled woman in purple shirt and blue cloth, Yan Li couldn't see her identity, but the woman in white, because her veiled appearance was too natural, as if she was born like this, it was really memorable, so Yan Li immediately recognized that it was Yu Youwei's maid Cui'er.

Based on this, it is speculated that the woman in the purple shirt must be Yu Youwei herself.

The little second brother nodded and greeted him: "Yes, some, how many do you want?"

"Come to the three upper rooms, and give us a table to eat, and choose the expensive ones." Gu Shiyu said.

"Please come with the little one. The little second brother hurriedly led the way.

And the three men followed. Due to the angle, Yan Li's position was on the right side of the lobby, and he could easily see the three of them, and the three of them wanted to see him, but they had to turn around, so none of them found Yan Li.

"The ghost gate opened late at night, and I have nourished my spirits...... Hurry ......" Yu Youwei's voice became farther and farther away.

Yan Li listened attentively, just heard such a sentence, and secretly calculated in his heart, from Longhua City to Lianyun Mountain, if you start to hurry now, it will be almost two hours away.

Looks like they're going to make their way overnight. But why did Gu Shiyu act with them? Could it be that Yu Youwei is also a member of the underworld? What is the ghost gate?

Full of doubts, Yan Li returned to the room, Shen Liuyun was combing Fu'er's hair, and said casually: "Why is it so fast." ”

"I didn't have much appetite today. Yan Li responded casually, took a face towel and wiped his face, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't tell Shen Liuyun the truth, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

"Rest early, and you can go back to Yongling tomorrow. Shen Liuyun finished combing Fu'er's hair and left.

"Master, Fu'er is so sleepy, go to sleep first. Fu'er yawned, slipped into the bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Yan Li didn't move on his knees, seemingly practicing, but in fact he was just meditating, and left a distraction to sense the wind and grass.

About the second half of the night, he suddenly felt a slight vibration on the roof where Yu Youwei and the others were, he opened his eyes, silently rushed to the window, carefully opened a crack, and saw that the four figures disappeared into the night.

He closed the window, glanced at Fu'er who was asleep, and to make sure that it was all right, he took out a piece of paper that he had prepared and spread it out and pressed it under the lamp holder on the table.

packed his bags, tied them to his back with Xuan Jun, and took a deep breath: "Good luck to me." ”

Open the window door, grab Kuang outside the window, climb onto the roof like an inverted spider, gently close the window and door, jump over, and disappear into the vast night.

As soon as he left, Fu'er's slight snoring immediately stopped, her long eyelashes fluttered, she opened her radiant beautiful eyes, and she got out of bed in a flash, came to the table, picked up the paper and looked at it, smiled slyly, and walked to Shen Liuyun's room.

"Sister Liuyun Sister Liuyun, the master really ran away, look at you. She pushed Shen Liuyun's room open and handed the piece of paper to Shen Liuyun, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch.

Shen Liuyun slowly opened his eyes, took the note, and saw that it was written: I found the clue of the Ice Soul Dew, go and check if it is true, my aunt will take Fu'er back to Yongling first, I will return in a few days, don't read it.

"I see that he has been wandering a lot these days, and he really hides his thoughts and wants to get rid of me, how can it be so easy. After Shen Liuyun finished speaking, he changed a piece of paper and wrote something similar, but the object was replaced with a picture of Prajna.

"Clean up, let's catch up and see what the hell he's up to. ”

"But Sister Liuyun, it's dark outside, how can you track down the master?"

Shen Liuyun reached out and wiped it on her eyelids.

Fu'er blinked her eyes and said, "Sister Liuyun, what is this?"

"Flowing fireflies, someone else gave it to me. After Shen Liuyun finished speaking, he pressed the note under the lampholder, and took Fu'er out of the window and disappeared into the vast night.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew and pushed open the empty window door of the room of the Prajna Futu, but it was empty, and there was a note under the lampholder, which was being blown "hunting".

……

Towards the end of the moon, the stars became very shy, so they hid behind the clouds, and only one or two were so bright that they could not hide their light.

However, the most attractive thing is not the bright moon, nor the one or two stars that cannot hide their own light, but a dull dark red star, which has a name, called the Ghost Emperor Star.

Folklore has it that when the Ghost Emperor Star rises to the middle of the sky, the Ghost Gate is wide open, and countless resentful spirits will run out of the Ghost Gate and choose people to devour; on this night, you must burn incense and bathe and sleep, if you are unclean, you will be persecuted by evil ghosts; you must also put a charcoal stove and some dark coins and clothes at the door of your house to keep your home safe.

It is said that when you wake up the next day, you will find that the coins and clothes have been burned to ashes in the charcoal furnace.

"Miss, I'm scared ......" Koharu was held by Pranya Uto, galloping through the dense forest under the night moon. If someone sees it, they will see that the Prajna Buddha is closed with their eyes closed.

"Don't be afraid, those are just legends. Prajnafutu said softly, "Since the advent of the practitioners, these have become tricks to scare children. ”

"What, it's a trick. Koharu breathed a sigh of relief, "But why did we sneak out?"

"What we are going to now is the place that the master gave me a dream. There are so many dead people there, I'm going to overtake those dead souls, but the fierce power there must be very strong, plus the power of the Ghost Emperor Star is the strongest tonight, I don't want to affect them. ”

Xiaochun subconsciously looked up, and his face suddenly turned pale: "Little, Miss, God, there are really blood-red stars hanging in the sky, why haven't I ever found it before?"

"You can only see it in a place where the yin qi is strong, and that direction seems to be ......"

"Lian Yun Mountain, Miss, it's Lian Yun Mountain......" Xiao Chun suddenly looked like a ghost, his face turned pale, "Yan, Yan Long slaughtered more than 100,000 people there, ah-"

She suddenly exclaimed: "The dream of the old Zen master, could it be Lianyun Mountain?"

"It seems so. Prajna Futu sighed, "I practiced listening to Zen, and when I broke through the realm, I heard the painful call from the bottom of Yan Gongzi's heart, and I guessed that the content of the dream was inseparable from him. ”

"Could Yan Li be Yan Long Tu?" Xiao Chun had a whim.

Prajna Futu was stunned for a moment and said, "If your guess is correct, then many things can be explained." ”

"I, did I guess correctly?" Xiao Chun said dumbfoundedly, "He, is he really Yanlong Tu?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, what matters is that he suffers for it, and that's forgivable." If he is numb to killing, it is only an evil in human form, and Grand Master Boshu cannot spare him. ”

"Hmph, I think he's hopeless, and Miss still tolerates him. By the way, why did the old Zen master dream of the tragedy of Lianyun Mountain? Could it have anything to do with the massacre of the Zen monastery? How did he see it?"

Pranyo Futu suddenly stopped and said in a daze: "Why did Yang Youyun choose this time...... What is there in the Monastery that is not available anywhere else?"

Suddenly, his whole body was shocked, and he said in disbelief: "Yang Youyun is to force the master to tell the specific location of the Baiyang Palace ruins. ”

"Huh?" Koharu said, "But I heard the senior brother in the courtyard say that the Baiyang Palace is opened once every two hundred years, and I remember that there are still ten years left, so what's the use of him getting a position?"

Prajna Futu's godless eyes looked in the direction of Lianyun Mountain, and muttered: "He wants to use the power of more than 100,000 resentful souls to forcibly open the Baiyang Palace." If he succeeds, the spirits will disappear forever. ”

As the words fell, the blood star rose to the center, and suddenly a bloody light was cast.

The direction of Lianyun Mountain suddenly boiled.

Pranyo Futu's face changed: "Oh no, the ghost emperor star and the resentful spirits of Lianyun Mountain resonated. ”

"Miss, what should I do then?" Koharu panicked.

"Let's get over there!"

……

The terrain on the periphery of Lianyun Mountain is endless, like a plain protruding from the earth, but in the core of Lianyun Mountain, there are seven towering peaks, arranged in the position of the Big Dipper.

Hundreds of years ago, a sect found this place and established Baiyang Palace here. Hundreds of years later, a gang of robbers occupied this place, and dozens of bandit groups were recruited from time to time, who knew that it burned to ashes overnight, and more than 100,000 lives were buried here, turning the blessed land into a murderous place.

"Killing people is a crime, but what about saving people?" Yan Li laughed to himself.

The closer he got to Lianyun Mountain, the more he could feel the restlessness of the spell seal, thinking that he was stimulated by the power of the same source.

He had been prepared for this result for a long time. But there was another unexpected thing, and that was that the ghosts seemed to recognize him.

As soon as he stepped into the realm of Lianyun Mountain, he felt a burst of coldness, even if he couldn't see it, he knew that there must be countless ghosts around him at this moment.

And the abnormal movement here was quickly noticed, and the four people in front suddenly turned around, and seeing that it was Yan Li, Gu Shiyu smiled and said: "It turns out that Brother Yan has also arrived." ”

Yan Lipi said with a smile: "Lord Gu, what a coincidence, it's so late, come to the green or enjoy the moon?"

"It's both. Gu Shiyu said with a smile.

"Since the two of them know each other, they can save the slave family from being introduced. Yu Youwei said softly, "No matter what, we are all gathered here for the same purpose, and no matter what happens, we should all work together." ”

"This is natural. Gu Shiyu said, "If there is anything I need to do, just ask." ”

Yu Youwei smiled lightly and looked up at the sky: "Young Master Yan, if you want to enter Baiyang Palace, I have to borrow you first." ”

As soon as the words fell, a blood-colored light fell from the sky, like a pot of oil poured with water, and the entire Lianyun Mountain was blown up, and it was just a gust of yin wind, which suddenly evolved into the screams of countless resentful spirits.

At the same time, countless burned faces appeared around Yan Li's body, and they rushed towards him in unison.
