With that in mind, he gently rolled over and got out of bed, dressed himself, and quietly left the room.

Outside, the night was dark, there was no moon in the sky, and there was no light on the ground, and he stood at the door of the room and shivered, hesitated for a moment, and did not act until he heard the call again.

"Small~"

The sound was intermittent, that is, faint, and Kong Shan could only barely hear it, but as soon as the sound entered his ears, he knew the direction.

"And ~"

He followed the direction from which the voice came, except for the small courtyard of Miheng, and headed north.

Mi Heng courtyard is located in the middle of the temple in the northwest position, along the road outside the courtyard and then to the north is the hall, the hall of the law and other places, relatively speaking, the care is not strict, if it is the Luohan Hall, the Daxiong Treasure Hall and other places guarded by monks, Kongshan really does not dare to go where.

"Shang~"

It may be because the night is dark tonight, and the trip to the temple of Kongshan is quite smooth, and no one finds it, so it is outside the last small gate of Xuanguang Temple.

The last voice obviously came from outside this door, but outside the door was the back mountain, although it was far from the location where the incident happened that day, but it meant that once Kongshan walked out of this door, he could not stop this dangerous action at any time, and he could not shout casually to attract countless helpers.

What to do?

There were no chains on the portal, they were only chained from the inside, and there was no one to guard them, so you just had to go over and take out the bolts and get out.

But, do you dare?

In front of the portal, which became darker and more silent under the cover of night, a small novice in a blue monk's robe stood for a long time, silently reciting Buddhist scriptures several times, and his heart was clear and reflected in his heart. Finally made a decision, slowly stepped to the door, took the bolt away, and pushed the door out.

Outside the mountain behind the door, if there is no sound again, Kong Shan didn't think about it, so he silently recited the mantra and walked forward.

The full name of the mantra of rebirth is "Pulling out all karmic obstacles and attaining the Pure Land Dharani Sutra", referred to as the mantra of rebirth, which is one of the ten small mantras in the "Morning and Evening Lesson Recitation". As a scripture that he had studied for a long time, he had long been proficient, and following the sound of calls that appeared from time to time, he recited the scripture silently twenty-one times before coming to the end

——Outside a grass hut in the back mountain.

Kongshan raised his head, with no sadness or joy in his heart, and looked at the monk who was covered in blood and pale in front of the grass house. Although I didn't see the person's appearance clearly that night, the person in front of him must have been the monk who broke the vows.

Breaking the vows?

Why did the woman lead me here?

As soon as this thought came to mind, the monk who broke the vows not far in front of him opened his eyes, and when he saw the puzzled little novice not far away, he immediately understood what was happening, because he put his palms together and sighed: "Amitabha, since you can come here, you must have fallen for the trick of that demon girl." But I am a Buddha with compassion and I can't bear to see the future of living beings in the world. Your coming here is also the fate of you and me, even so, I will entrust you with the responsibility of the future!"

"The trajectory of the demon girl, the destruction of life, the heavy responsibility?"

The words of the monk in front of him made Kong Shan confused and did not understand how to deal with it. Judging from the situation that night, the monk in front of him broke the four precepts and rebelled against the senior monks in the temple, which is no longer an ordinary monk, but looking at the way the abbot treats this person, he should immediately return to the temple and inform the monks in the temple of this matter, leading him to talk about the person in front of him.

However, seeing the calm monk in front of him, hearing his words, and seeing his eyes clearly, it was difficult for Kongshan to connect the person in front of him with the furious Vajra who was going crazy at that time.

"Your Dharma name is called Emptiness. ”

The monk in the distance saw that Kongshan was standing in the distance and did not move, he didn't care, and miraculously said the name of the little novice, and without waiting for the other side to answer, the monk said to himself,

"The poor monk is thoughtless, from the Three Realms Temple in the Western Regions, he wanted to practice in the Xuanguang Temple for a period of time and wait for the time to save the world, but unexpectedly he was coveted by the demon girl for no reason, so that at this time he was ruined and seriously injured.

But my Buddha is merciful, and I can't bear the loss of the secret method borne by the poor monks, and the will to save the world is lost, so it is really a great blessing to send you to me and inherit the Dharma system. ”

Kongshan completely believed what happened to the monk in front of him, slowly walked in front of the monk, sat down cross-legged, and listened attentively.

"Kongshan, listen well, all the secret methods of Buddhism of the poor monks, the will to save the world!"

……

Dinghuancheng is located at the junction of the five counties of Huangjing, the thirty-six forts of Mobei, and the seven provinces of the East China Sea, between the seven old Tu Mountain and the Lunuer Tiger Mountain. The canyon between the two mountains crosses the north and south, together with the east and west, and the terrain of the canyon in it is flat and unobstructed, which was originally one of the shortcuts from the imperial capital to the east, and was an important passage in the previous dynasty.

However, due to the incompetence and brutal rule of the last monarch of the previous dynasty, disasters fell from the sky, the earth shook the mountains, and half of the Qilaotu Mountain and Lunuerhu Mountain collapsed, blocking the canyon between the two mountains.

Since then, Dinghuan City has become an isolated city.

It's still the same as before, but after taking it, it doesn't make any sense.

After entering the Yang Dynasty, the city was no longer prosperous, and only the people who settled here lived in the era, relying on the food and medicinal prey bred by the unique environment of the canyon behind the city to make a living.

Originally, this was just an inconspicuous small city, at most because the scenery in the canyon behind it would be more famous for those tourists who like to be curious about mountains and rivers, but it was not ranked in Dayang, where there are many famous cities.

Today, this city is very famous among the government and the opposition.

Because of the ghost town of Xudu.

Xu Heng and the others left the Qi Wangfu on the night of the twenty-first day of the first lunar month, the three of them were dressed in black, holding a ghost guide, at a specific time and a specific place, waiting for a black carriage, after verifying the ghost guide, they were allowed to get on the car.

There were already several black-clothed people in the same dress sitting in the car, no one was surprised that the three of them got into the car, everyone sat in their places and closed their eyes to recuperate, and Xu Heng and the three of them did the same.

After walking around the city for a long time, the carriage was already full of ten black-clothed people who were going to the ghost town of Xudu.

The carriage continued to move forward, and when the body began to bumble, Xu Heng knew that they had already left Shen'an City. It's just that there are no windows in the car, and it's pitch black, so you can't see where you have arrived.

Xu Hengmo counted the time, and calculated the direction of the carriage by virtue of his sense of the speed of the carriage and the general forward, backward and backward turns. There are hints in the ghost guide for the specific way to get on the bus, but what method and how much time it takes to get to the ghost city of Xudu are unknown to those who hold the ghost guide.

Xu Heng was very curious about this.

But his silent calculations turned out to be useless.

In Xu Heng's calculations, after twelve hours of the whole day, they left the carriage for the first time, and it stands to reason that it should be the same time as they left Shen'an City, it was still night, but it was noon after seeing the light of day again.

The carriage was parked in a courtyard, and there were nearly ten black carriages in the spacious courtyard, and this courtyard, in line with the tone of the carriage and the man in black, was all black.

The courtyard wall was very high, and Xu Heng couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly. In the middle of the courtyard, a tall building stood, and they were directed into it. On the first floor is a banquet hall filled with sumptuous food for guests to enjoy.

There was only a table and no chairs, and almost everyone silently chose their own food and brought it back to the room with the lunch box next to the table to eat alone. Each person's oni has a number on it, which corresponds to the number of the room where they live.

Xu Heng's rooms were close to each other, so they simply gathered in Xu Heng's room to eat.

The room has no windows, only a portal, and is simply furnished, with a bed and a table, and no other furnishings.

The items from the previous night had already been brought here and placed in their personal rooms, and from the outside, there was no sign of being opened and searched.

After Xu Heng and the three of them entered the room, they first checked the entire room to confirm that there were no hidden attic organs, and then put the food they brought on the table and began to eat.

The food has been tested by Silver Needle and Su Su, and it is a common food in Shen'an City, and it is extremely beautifully made, and the raw materials and sauces are all common to Shen'an, and there are no characteristics that can be located by others. It can be seen that the people behind the scenes who arranged the entire ghost town tour of Xudu were extremely cautious.

During the meal, the three of them took off their veils and were honest with each other, and the three of them looked as usual, and the ride for more than 12 hours did not bring physical discomfort. The people behind the scenes don't seem to want to impose any restrictions or restrictions on guests.

"Eat, eat first. ”

Xu Heng beckoned the two of them to eat, twelve hours, even though his spirit was fine, but his stomach became a little hungry, and he didn't know when he would set off again, and he didn't know when the next diet would be, so it was more important to fill his stomach.

Pu Feng and Su Su were not polite, and the three of them hurried up to eat.

Su Su was the fastest to finish eating, holding a small bowl by himself, dividing the dishes from the four delicacies, putting down the chopsticks after eating, and quietly watching the two men beside him feast.

Xu Heng and Pu Feng swept away the rest of the food, put it in the basket they brought, cleaned the table, and then began to discuss things.

As usual, Xu Heng spoke first: "According to my calculations, from last night to now, twelve hours have passed, less than thirteen, excluding the time spent in the imperial capital, plus the foot of the cart and horses, we should have walked almost six hundred miles." Shen'an City is in the center of Huangjing County, and we shouldn't have stepped out of Huangjing County now, counting the error in my calculation, at most it is between the junction of Handan County and Huangjing County. ”

Xu Heng said the time and distance he calculated in one breath, and then asked his companion's opinion: "Do you think this calculation is correct?"

"It's a bit of a problem," Pu Feng looked at Su Su, who was indifferent, and first questioned, "Regarding time, the two of us have different calculations,"

Pu Feng was even counting the time? This was something he didn't ask him to do.

Xu Heng asked curiously, "How much do you count?"

"From the time I got into the carriage to now, it's almost nine hours," Pu Feng touched his stomach, "I ate seventy percent full of food before I left, and I spent most of my time meditating on the car, and my internal strength flowed, and I felt hungry during the thirty-third whole body cycle, generally speaking, seventy percent of the amount of food, in the case of my meditation and exercise did not consume much, it was almost able to bear about six hours and thirty cycles, and then I exercised to suppress hunger, and after running less than one and a half cycles, we stopped." ”

"Do you use the body's induction and internal power movement to calculate time?" Xu Heng pondered for a moment, then turned his head to look at the woman beside him, "How many hours do you feel like has passed?"

"Fifteen. ”

Su Suying's lips spit lightly, answering a number that was even more different from the previous two, and her calm gaze met the surprised gaze of the two men. Knowing that the two men were waiting for her to explain, she removed her hood and reached out from behind her bun to take out three black button-like objects and place them on the table.

"Black dead worms, if they don't come out within five hours after hatching, they will die on their own. I use it to keep time. ”

The woman clicked on the three "buttons" in turn, and the surface of the buttons split apart, revealing dense calves and mouthparts that occupied half of the body in the middle, and thin wings behind the insects. With such a shape, it is not difficult to imagine how terrifying it must have been when it was alive.

Su Su's face was indifferent, and she didn't mean to take out the poisonous insects with terrifying names and even more terrifying bodies, she pointed to the three insects and said, "All three are dead, so it's fifteen hours." ”

The reason for the inference given by the woman was sufficient, and it seemed to be the most accurate, but Xu Heng was struggling with other things at this time: "Why didn't you use poisonous insects before?" he looked at the woman in front of him and exclaimed.

In response to Xu Heng's doubts, the woman glared at the man fiercely and did not speak. The tacit understanding between the two has never disappeared, and Xu Heng immediately understood what Su Su meant: He used to be idle and always do something to his future daughter-in-law, but he never found such poisonous insects on women, I am afraid that she was afraid that the insects on her body would be frightened and bite me......

Thinking about it like this, Xu Heng suddenly felt a little sweeter in his heart, and at the same time, a trace of worry also came to his heart: It seems that he should pay attention to Su Su before touching Su Su in the future......

At this time, the Sword Master of Chengying finally recalled the horror of the Jade Shura, the Holy Maiden of the Genshin God Sect.

The women in southern Xinjiang are very good at using poison to repel insects!

Perhaps guessing Xu Heng's thoughts, Su Su's cheeks were slightly red and he lowered his head: "This is the insect egg I accidentally found in the palace, and I cultivated it when I was idle, a total of ten, these are the only three black dead insects among them......"

Xu Heng was overjoyed: "Is there only ten in total?"

"In this way, that carriage is also quite miraculous, it can disrupt the operation of my internal strength and the digestion of food, and disrupt Senior Brother Xu's mental count,"

At this time, Pu Feng, who was ignored by the two people, suddenly spoke, he didn't realize the flow of thoughts of the two people beside him in an instant, he just saw Xu Heng's surprised question, Su Su's explanation, and nothing else. In addition, it was just a little strange about the sudden silence between the two, so he opened his own mouth.

"It seems that one of the things that people behind the scenes are focusing on is messing with our senses and not wanting us to perceive the true route!"

Pu Feng looked at the room where the three of them were: "I think the same is true of this house!"
