Chapter 161: Where is the Demon?
The room is very empty, there is a bronze bell in the middle, it is very huge, nearly two zhang high, it needs to be hugged by three people, the broken bell in the bell tower west of Yuan Anning's residence is not small, but it is still much smaller than this bell, and the style of this bell is not the same as the broken bell in the bell tower.

The bell was upside down on the ground, surrounded by a circle of human heads, some of which were the size of a sea bowl and clearly belonged to babies.
Looking at the skull below, Nanfeng moved his eyes back to the bronze bell, although the bronze bell has been placed here for many years, it has not rusted and greened, it is still very bright, and there are many strange shapes engraved on the clock.
He didn't recognize the words on the bell, but he felt very familiar, and when he looked closely, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the words on the bell were very similar to the words on the tortoiseshell.
Just when Nanfeng was looking closely, Tianxunzi stretched out his hand to pull him away, Nanfeng turned back in confusion, Tianxunzi waved his hand and said, "The smell of sulfur here is very strong, and there must be a lot of cinnabar in the temple, and it hurts to smell for a long time." ”
Nanfeng thanked him, and said with his fingers piercing into the sky, "Dao Chief, take a look, what is the situation?"
Tianxunzi leaned close to the gap and looked inside, and after a moment, he withdrew his gaze, frowned and shook his head.
"Let's get out of here and come back after dawn. "South Wind suggests.
Tianxunzi nodded in agreement, and everyone returned the same way, crossed the canyon, returned to the south bank, found a shelter from the wind, and lit a fire to rest.
The chatter is annoying, the stuffy gourd is even worse, Tianxunzi closed his eyes after eating dry food, and did not talk to the south wind, the two Taoists had walked a long way up the mountain road before, and they were also tired at this time, and they leaned on each other to sleep.
Nanfeng looked for firewood and grass nearby, guarded the fire, and at the same time secretly thought to himself, and no matter what was hidden in the broken temple, this time it was considered to be a creation, the text on the bronze bell and the text on the tortoiseshell book are extremely similar, you can copy it down, and compare it with the text on the tortoiseshell book, even if you can't compare the content of the tortoiseshell book, you can also take the words on the bell to ask others in the future, and you can not be afraid of being found by someone who cares about the book of heaven.
Thinking about it, and thinking about the dragon stone statues in the broken temple, what is the use of the ten dragon tortured stone statues is still unknown, but one thing is certain, that is, the people who carved these stone statues must have great power, and ordinary people and others do not have so much financial resources to carve such huge stone statues.
Moreover, the gray bricks that built the temple and the two huge iron gates are also worth a lot of money, to build such a large temple, it will cost at least 10,000 taels of silver, not including the huge bronze bell in the main hall, before he and the fat man arrived, the poor jingle of Yuxian County, the granary can starve to death, this temple cannot be from the hands of the county government.
The bell can be used as a clue, the clock at this time can be divided into four kinds, the music bell, the royal bell, the clock used to tell the time, and the Taoist temple with the awakening bell, the previous bell is larger than the bell in Chang'an, the style is not the same as the bell, it is very likely to be the royal bell of a certain dynasty.
Now it is spring, but the night is still very cold, in order to keep out the cold, the south wind will burn the bonfire on the strong, as long as the fire is burning, the wet wood can also be lit, and it is not troublesome to take materials nearby.
After adding firewood and grass, Nanfeng put down the firewood knife and continued to think, for the sake of safety, he was no longer ready to catch ghosts, and he would copy the words on the bronze bell after dawn tomorrow and go back, the bell was full of human heads, and it was better not to move.
Thinking of the human head, Nanfeng suddenly remembered something, there were only human heads in the broken temple, but there were no corpses, and there was a large stone house in the valley where the white dog was before, where there were many corpses and bones, but there were no heads.
The ruined temple was only a few dozen miles away from the valley, and the skulls in the ruined temple were mixed with infant bones, both old and young, so it is possible that the skulls belonged to the people who lived in the valley before, and someone killed them and brought their heads here.
At the beginning, he had checked the situation in the stone house, where he had found several spiritual tablets, and those spiritual tablets belonged to the Han family, so it was inferred that the person with the surname Han should be buckled under the bronze bell, and the skulls around the bronze bell were all family members or relatives of this person.
Thinking of this, Nanfeng's thoughts were interrupted by a small Taoist not far away, who seemed to be dreaming and said in a dream, "This place is not suitable for a long time. ”
Nanfeng glanced up at the little Taoist, didn't care, took the firewood knife and got up to chop wood, just got up, the little Taoist said, "Stay here and be lucky, leave early, save your life." ”
Nanfeng frowned and turned his head, the little Taoist was not talking in a dream, but was possessed by a ghost, and the mouth of the fake Taoist was talking to him.
The yin ghost is possessed by people, and people's complexion will change, but he didn't find that the complexion of this little Taoist person is different, and he shouted Tianxunzi in surprise, "Tianxun Dao is long, Tianxun Dao is long." ”
shouted twice, Tianxunzi did not respond, Nanfeng walked over and pushed him, pushed a few times, but there was still no response.
"This is not the place for you to come, put out the fire and go quickly. The Taoist's eyes were closed, but his speech was very clear, and there was an indescribable strangeness in the dark night.
"Who are you?" asked Minami Masase.
"I am...... Oops, here it comes. The little Taoist suddenly stood up, grabbed a twig and beat the bonfire fiercely.
Seeing that he was acting crazy, the south wind did not dare to stop him, and the little Taoist extinguished the bonfire, his legs weakened, and he fell to the ground in a malaise.
After the little Taoist collapsed, Tianxunzi and another Taoist woke up at the same time.
"Heaven seeks the Tao. Nanfeng looked at Tianxunzi.
"I hear," Tianxunzi raised his hand to wipe his sweat, "this thing is not a ghost, and the ghost can't stop us." ”
Nanfeng was just about to answer, when he suddenly found a purple aura in the northwest mountains, purple and black, and it was moving rapidly from twenty miles away.
"A powerful anomaly has appeared in the northwest mountains, and it is moving towards us. Nanfeng eagerly trampled on the embers of the campfire, "Get out of here and stay away." ”
Tianxunzi grabbed the burden, picked up the little Taoist who had been possessed before, and ran south with another little Taoist who led the dog.
The south wind stepped on the fire extinguishing star, picked up the rooster and chased after it.
As he ran, the south wind turned back frequently, and the purple aura was extremely fast, and it had reached ten miles away in the blink of an eye.
To the south is a flat area, where people can't be hidden, so Nanfeng pulled Tianxunzi and the others to the east and hid behind a hill.
As soon as he dodged, a huge black shadow appeared in the northwest direction of the broken temple, this thing should be the genus of the tiger and leopard, jumping up, jumping for several miles, and falling on the roof of the broken temple in an instant.
As soon as the distance got closer, Nanfeng saw the true face of the black shadow, which was the size of a tiger but not a tiger, but a huge hunchbacked green wolf.
The green wolf looked left and right from the roof, and then jumped to the ground, and when he jumped, he was still a green wolf, and after landing, he had transformed into a handsome young showman.
Nanfeng pinched the chicken's mouth, and signaled the little Taoist priest to cover the dog's mouth, so as not to bark at the black dog and alarm the wolf demon.
The young showman who had transformed into a wolf demon raised his right hand after landing on the ground, as if he was pinching his fingers.
After a few moments, the Xiushi lowered his right hand and stomped his foot slightly, and a pedantic-looking old man appeared out of thin air and stood in front of Xiushi.
The young scholar seemed to be talking to the old scholar, and looking at the old scholar's submissive expression, he seemed to be very afraid of the young scholar who had changed from the wolf demon.
"And the old man is the land here?" asked Nanfeng in a low voice.
Tianxunzi nodded, "It should be, he must have been the one who had slept with us before, this demon doesn't know where it came from, but he can detain the land." ”
Naturally, I don't know what the wolf demon said to the land, but according to the direction pointed out by the two, the wolf demon should have asked if someone had been to the land, and the land might have replied that he had been driven away.
The wolf demon and the land seemed to be very polite to speak, and the land kept bowing his head to listen to the training, and finally the wolf demon pointed to the broken temple and said a few words, and the land nodded again and again.
The wolf demon circled around the ruined temple, and then it showed its original form, rose into the air, and went to the northwest.
"Although the land vocation is small, it is a righteous god, and this demon dares to drive the land, and it must have a great future. Tianxunzi frowned and shook his head.
Nanfeng was also frowning, but what he was thinking about was not what the wolf demon was, but who was under the bronze bell of the ruined temple......
