Chapter 70: Come up, I'll carry you
The car continued to drive forward.
Yang Chen said, "I'm not sure for the time being, but eight or nine are not far from ten, there is plenty of spiritual energy here, and it is very likely that wild ginseng of a large year will grow." ”
"Abundant aura?"
As soon as Ma Tao heard this, he immediately came to his senses and said suspiciously, "But I didn't feel it." ”
A place with abundant spiritual energy is very precious to martial cultivators within the Grandmaster Realm.
It is rare to find a place with abundant spiritual energy, and once it is discovered, it will immediately become a fragrant bait.
The Xiuwu family, all the sects will flock to grab this land.
The place where the spiritual energy is abundant is also called the land of spiritual treasures.
Every time a spiritual treasure is found, it will inevitably flow into a river of blood, I don't know how many martial arts families, martial arts sects are bleeding like rivers for robbery.
However, there is no place for spiritual treasures near Tianhai City.
Ma Tao is also a martial artist himself, and he is no stranger to Screen Mountain. However, he didn't feel any aura fluctuations above.
"Of course you can't feel it. ”
Yang Chen smiled, but didn't explain much.
Screen Mountain is a big gain for him.
Through the white mist, Yang Chen could be sure that there must be a spiritual treasure land on it.
It's just that it's not activated, so it's not visible from the outside at all.
This is not because Yang Chen's cultivation has reached the Grandmaster realm. Actually, it doesn't have much to do with this.
This was also thanks to the heavenly numerical experience in Yang Chen's mind.
The land of spiritual treasures on the Tianwu Continent is much more than that on Earth.
But it will still be contested by various large and small forces.
When Yang Chen first traveled through the past, he was just an ordinary person, and in order to speed up his cultivation, he could only go to find some undiscovered spiritual treasures.
Over time, Yang Chen summed up a set of experiences. Find one after another place of unactivated spiritual treasures, and then concentrate on cultivation, and finally have the achievements that follow.
The road into the village is a shabby, narrow sheep's intestine path, winding and rugged, and it is so steep that the car cannot drive into it.
The three of them had to abandon the car and walk, Ma Tao walked to the front, Xu Qinglan was in the middle, and Yang Chen was behind the pad.
Not long after leaving, Ma Tao and Yang Chen had no problems, but Xu Qinglan was obviously a little out of breath.
"Come, I'll carry you a paragraph. Yang Chen smiled and stretched out a hand to go over.
Xu Qinglan was stunned for a moment, and her expression suddenly looked a little flustered.
Ma Tao has a very high emotional intelligence, pretending not to see it, and only said, "I'll go to the front to explore the way first, and you will follow behind." ”
After saying that, he sped up and walked ahead.
Yang Chen shook his head and smiled, this kid is smart and smart, but sometimes he is too smart.
"Why are you stunned, you have walked so hard, and you have to enter the mountain at night, what will you do then?" Yang Chen said with a smile.
Xu Qinglan was so nervous that her little hands rubbed the corners of her clothes.
It's not shyness, it's pure nervousness.
Her current identity is Yang Chen's slave, although Yang Chen asked him not to observe so many etiquettes in front of outsiders.
But let the master carry her, it's a bit ......
"The slave and the maid don't dare, the slave and the maid can go by themselves......"
Xu Qinglan said hurriedly.
Yang Chen was speechless, so he had to say with a straight face, "This is an order, execute it immediately!"
"Yes...... Qinglan obeyed the order......"
Xu Qinglan cautiously stretched out her jade hand.
Yang Chen grabbed her hand and pulled it lightly, carrying her whole person on her back.
Xu Qinglan lay on Yang Chen's back, her heart was pounding, although she was Yang Chen's signing general, she was always a woman.
It's the first time that she has grown so big and carried a man on her back, and this man is still her master......
I couldn't help but think about it in my head.
After walking for more than three hours, when he was about to reach the entrance of the village, Yang Chen put Xu Qinglan down.
I don't know why, the moment she was put down, Xu Qinglan actually felt a sense of loss.
From childhood to adulthood, she has a strong personality, she lived independently at a very young age, and played the role of a strong woman.
All the stress, the pain. Frustration and loneliness are all borne silently by herself.
The people of the entire Tianhai City treated her like a god, and thousands of people admired her, and she only had to frown slightly, and she would scare a group of people who couldn't sleep for a few nights.
But she never felt what it was like to be truly cared for.
Those three hours were the first time.
"Brother Yang, Sister Qinglan, there is the entrance of the village in front. ”
Ma Tao walked over with a smile, and even changed his title from Mr. Xu to Sister Qinglan.
When he said this, he glanced at the two of them meaningfully, and obviously, he almost called his sister-in-law.
The three of them walked towards the entrance of the village, and when Xu Qinglan didn't pay attention, Ma Tao stretched out his thumb at Yang Chen, playing with the taste, "Brother Yang is a cow, and next time he will teach me the technique of flirting with girls." ”
Yang Chen smiled helplessly, but he didn't explain too much, this kid obviously misunderstood.
Besides, does he still need to tease Xu Qinglan?
Just entered the village. A few people noticed that something was not quite right in the atmosphere of the village.
It's only past six o'clock, and it's still a long time before it gets dark.
But the village was empty, and the doors and windows of every house were closed.
There is a big rooster tied to the door of every house, which looks extremely weird.
"Why does this look so evil?"
Ma Tao frowned and said to Yang Chen, "Brother Yang." Why don't I knock on the door and ask?"
Yang Chen nodded.
Ma Tao walked to the door of a family and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door was opened, and it was an old man, who was very surprised to see that it was three outsiders.
"Where did you come from? What are you doing here?" the old man looked vigilant, grasping the door frame with one hand, ready to close the door at any moment.
Ma Tao said with a smile, "Old man, we are from Tianhai City, and I heard that the scenery on the mountain is good. I want to go up and take a few pictures, and by the way, find someone to inquire about the situation here......"
"No, no, no, you guys should leave quickly, outsiders are not welcome here......"
Before Ma Tao finished speaking, the old man was about to close the door.
Ma Tao took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and said with a smile. "Oh, that's a bother, old man, you rest, I'll look for someone else......"
The old man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly smiled, "If you want to talk about the situation here." No one in the village is more familiar than me, and a few of them are quick to come inside and have a drink. ”
Ma Tao turned around and smiled at Yang Chen and Xu Qinglan, and Yang Chen also gave him a thumbs up.
The old man, who had just said that he did not welcome outsiders, was particularly enthusiastic at this time, poured water for the three of them, and carefully tended the stack of banknotes. said with a smile, "If the three of you want to know anything, just ask, I grew up here, and I know everything here." ”
"Old man, we've heard a lot of interesting things here. Tell us about it......"
If you want to say that Ma Tao's emotional intelligence is high, in a few words, he led out the old man's words as if he wanted to open the floodgates, and talked endlessly about the strange things about this village.
The content is roughly the same as what Ma Tao said before, children cry in the middle of the night and suck cow blood, and the sheep in the sheepfold gather together to talk about human words and so on.
When asked why every house is closed today. And when a big rooster was tied to the door, the old man looked reverent and said, "Today is the day when the mage goes down the mountain!"
"Mage?" Ma Tao looked puzzled, he had never heard of this before.
The old man said: "This village has not been peaceful before, and ten years ago, a mage came to the village and said that this village is not clean. ”
"Then he helped us to exorcise evil spirits, and then there was no strange thing in the village, but the mage said that the evil here's too strong to be cleared at once. ”
Then he settled down in the mountains, and once a year he came down to give us the practice and let us drink the divine water. to keep us safe and sound all year long. ”
"Today happens to be the day when the mage goes down the mountain, and it will come when it gets dark, and the big rooster tied at the door is all filial to his old man. ”
"When the mage comes, there will be a big event in the village, and the mage will give us divine water. ”
After Ma Tao listened, he said. "Old man, can you bring us with you later, we also want to see what the mage looks like. ”
The old man hurriedly waved his hand, "That's unacceptable, the mage said, let's keep this matter strictly secret." You can't reveal half a word to the outside, otherwise it will ......"
In the middle of speaking, Ma Tao suddenly took out another stack of banknotes.
The old man continued, "Otherwise, nothing will happen, okay." You can follow me later, but just stand and watch, and don't talk nonsense. ”
When it was completely dark, all the villagers stood at the door, lit torches, and illuminated the whole village as bright as day, waiting for the mage's master.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for an old man to come from the mountain, followed by a few Taoist boys.
The old man's hair and beard were particularly long, gray and gray, and he was wearing an earthy yellow coarse cloth robe, which looked a bit like a fairy wind and bones.
Surrounded by the crowd, the group walked towards the open space at the east end of the village.
Seeing that there were three outsiders, the old man said that the three were relatives in his city, and everyone didn't care too much.
On the altar that had already been set up, after the white-bearded mage took a few Dao boys to jump around for a long time, a Dao boy said in a loud voice. "The mage gives divine water, and all beings are welcome!"
With this shout, I saw the mage take out a small purple-black pot from his body and pour it towards a large vat prepared on the stage.
A purple-black liquid suddenly poured out of the spout, and a rancid sour smell could be faintly smelled.
Strangely, the little purple-black jug. At most, it's the size of two fists.
However, the vat was close to a man's height, and the purple-black liquid seemed to be inexhaustible, pouring all the way towards the vat.
In a short time the vat was filled.
A child dragged out a long tone and said, "Distribute the divine water-"
With this shout, all the villagers took out a pre-prepared earthen bowl from their bodies and held it in both hands.
I saw two Taoist boys, without much effort, lifted the vat, and then walked in front of everyone to distribute the divine water one by one.
Yang Chen and the three of them also shared a bowl.
"Do you really want to drink this?"
Ma Tao looked at the black, rancid liquid, and suddenly felt extremely nauseous.
Xu Qinglan also frowned.
"Drink?"
Yang Chen smiled coldly and spread out his palm, and there were several slender vines inside.
"What is this?" Ma Tao asked.
Yang Chen smiled and said, "This is the hair I pulled off the heads of those Dao boys just now!"
"Hair!"
Ma Tao and Xu Qinglan gasped at the same time.
"You mean...... How many of them are ....... aren't human?"
Yang Chen smiled, glanced at the white-bearded mage on the stage, and said, "This mage who pretends to be a ghost is the mallet we are looking for!"
