Chapter 140: The Land of the Nether

Hearing this, Nanfeng nodded, "You stay here, I'll go to the valley to have a look." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Dig it out first. The fat man grabbed the south wind and stretched out his hand to point to the mountain ginseng on the stone wall.

The south wind jumped up, attached to the stone wall, and pulled out the mountain ginseng, which has the thickness of a wine cup, which is much thinner than the one sent by Hu County, and it should be two or three hundred years old.

The south wind came down to the stone wall, stuffed the mountain ginseng to the fat man, turned around and ran towards the valley, at this time Zhang Zhong and the others were still shouting in the valley.

"Don't move. "The fat man is a little afraid of the white dog, he wants to touch it but he doesn't dare, don't look at it like this at this time, if he gets angry, I'm afraid it will turn back to his previous fierce face.

Although the centipede was poisonous, it did not do much, and after spitting out the poisonous mist a few times, the donkey was exhausted, and was beaten to death under the siege of dozens of people.

Seeing the arrival of the south wind, Tianmu Lao Dao had the intention to invite merit, and issued three spells in a row, which stunned the centipede, and turned to look at the south wind, "My lord, this monster has been taken down by us, what should I do?"

"Bundle it up, and take it out to show the crowd. "The south wind was heading deeper into the valley, and it was getting dark by this time, and it was necessary to find the villagers who had entered the valley before it got dark.

Everyone brought ropes with them, and when they heard what the south wind said, they stepped forward to tie them up, but the centipedes were many, and the binding was laborious.

Zhang Zhong led people to follow, escorting the south wind to search forward, more than 100 zhang forward, a corpse of a villager appeared in front of him, the body was intact, the face was black and purple, and he was poisoned to death.

This valley is in the shape of a horseshoe, and soon after moving forward, it was diverted to the north, and there was a leyline hot spring on one side of the valley, the hot spring was not large, but the size of the wellhead was not deep, and the bottom of the black stone spring could be seen through the water vapor.

Walking more than ten zhang, three corpses were found, there were no injuries on the body, but they were also poisoned to death, while seeing these corpses, everyone also saw a house at the end of the valley, which was a house made of black stone, three zhang high, about five zhang in length and width, and it was reasonable to say that it was a stone hall.

This stone house is relatively well preserved, leaning against the stone wall, there are no windows, only a doorway, because it is late, you can't see the scene inside the stone house.

"Look, my lord. Zhang Zhong pointed to the top of the stone house.

Nanfeng looked up and saw two human legs faintly visible on the stone roof.

Zhang Zhong tilted his head to look at the servant on the side, who understood, ran over and climbed the stone wall, looked at the situation on the roof, and shouted loudly, "My lord, there are three villagers here, all of whom fell to their deaths. ”

"Come inside and have a look. "The south wind marches forward.

As a subordinate, he naturally couldn't let the official explore the way first, even if he was timid in his heart, Zhang Zhong still led a few people to rush into the stone house.

As soon as the fire was lit, there was a miserable scream in the house, and everyone was caught off guard, and the frightened souls fled in embarrassment.

Nanfeng stepped in, looked around at the inspection, he heard it clearly, the scream before came from the population, not a monster.

The scene in the house is very terrifying, there are white bones everywhere, in addition to the ground there are also a lot of pottery shards and wooden plaques, look at the style of the wooden plaque, it should be the ancestral spiritual position.

"It's all human bones. Zhang Zhong spoke from the side.

Nanfeng nodded and pointed to the northeast corner, "There's someone in the corner." ”

The stone house is built against a stone wall, and there is a recess in the northeast corner where a figure is faintly shaking.

Zhang Zhong took someone over and pulled out a person, who was so frightened that he had lost his mind and screamed repeatedly.

"My lord, there are five corpses there, all of them poisoned. Zhang Zhong reported.

Nanfeng was annoyed by the man's call, so he waved his hand to signal the official to take him out, and instead bent down to pick up a wooden plaque of the spiritual throne, the handwriting on it had been mottled and peeled off due to its age.

Pick it up again, this handwriting is clear, and it reads, "First Yan Han Gong's spiritual position." ”

In addition to practicing spells and martial arts, Taoists also have to learn Feng Shui and transcend funeral affairs, so Nanfeng is familiar with the writing of the spiritual position, which is different from the ordinary spiritual position and lacks a name.

Even after picking up a few faces, there were no names, which confirmed his previous suspicion that the people who lived here had fled here.

"My lord, this is not a place to stay for a long time, so let's leave early. Zhang Zhong was a little hairy.

He didn't speak, and Nanfeng forgot that there was such a person beside him, "You do more autopsies with you to find out the cause of death of these people." ”

Zhang Zhong secretly complained bitterly, and squatted down to inspect with a fire twist.

Nanfeng walked through the stone house, observing at will, there was a dirt pit near the door, which should be the place where the white dog had been lying before, according to the size of the pit, the white dog did not show its original form on weekdays, but the form of a behemoth.

The house was dusty, but there were few footprints except in the doorway area, indicating that the white dog did not wander around although hiding from the stone house.

"My lord, there are more than 20 corpses, all of which were injured by sharp weapons, and there are no heads, so they should have been cut off and taken away. Zhang Zhong had the results of the investigation.

Before Nanfeng could answer, Tianmu and Wuzhen entered from outside the door, and when they saw the white bones all over the ground, Tianmu said immeasurable Tianzun, and Wuzhen sang a sentence of Amitabha.

After reciting the Buddha's name, Wuzhen came to the sentence again, "It's so dark, how can adults see clearly?"

Nanfeng glanced at Gojin and turned to walk out.

"Murder is in vain, how can you not see the resentment of the ghost?" Tianmu shook his head in confusion and followed out.

"My lord, there is one less. Zhang Zhong followed.

"I guess I was eaten by that centipede. Nanfeng said casually.

At this time, night has fallen, but this is not an auspicious place, everyone does not want to spend the night here, since the stone crack found the corpse of the villager after the south wind ordered to return, the official carried the centipede, the villager carried the corpse.

The surviving man was frightened and went crazy, Tianmu Lao Dao drank some cinnabar water with him to suppress the shock, and injected him in a few places to calm the nerves, and the man gradually regained his senses.

Things are not complicated, everyone went into the mountains to look for herbs, there was no gain, so they thought of coming here to try their luck, never thought of really finding something, under the huge temptation of free endowment, everyone had no intention of humility, and rushed up to dig the mountain ginseng.

As a result, the centipede jumped out and spat poisonous mist at everyone, and everyone panicked and fled, but the centipede blocked the exit, and they could only run into the valley, and several people died of poison on the way, and the rest of the people fled to the end of the valley.

Unexpectedly, a fierce monster popped out of the stone house, and everyone fled in all directions again, some climbed the stone wall, and some people hid in the stone house in a panic.

In addition to this person, everyone else was also poisoned, and watching his companions die one after another, this person couldn't stand it and went crazy.

Nanfeng nodded after hearing this, although this white dog is a neighbor of a centipede, it does not eat people.

"That's good, that's good. The fat man let out a long breath, he was also afraid that this white dog was ferocious and cannibalistic, if that was the case, he would never be able to keep it by his side.

"My lord, take a step to speak. Tianmu Lao Dao whispered to the south wind.

Nanfeng gave way sideways, letting everyone pass, and walked last with Tianmu Old Road.

Tianmu said in a low voice, "That valley does not see the light of day all the year round, it is a rare place to return to the yin, if you die here, it is rare for the soul to go away, and the years will become a disaster, the corpses in the stone house are all headless, all of them are in vain, but there is no grief and soul in this valley." ”

"Maybe there was a Taoist who overtook them before. Nanfeng said casually.

"Well, that's all. But those villagers have died recently, and they are all dead, why don't you see their souls?"

Nanfeng frowned and nodded, although his cultivation was higher than that of Tianmu, he lacked experience after all.

Tianmu said again, "I didn't say wrong that there is yin qi in the valley before, that yin qi comes from the white dog, this thing can devour souls, and the origin is unknown, so you must not stay by your side." ”

"Thank you for the reminder, we will be more vigilant. Nanfeng nodded, the origin of this white dog is indeed unknown, but he does not think that the white dog has malicious intentions towards the fat man, the reason is very simple, the white dog wants to kill the fat man can be completely open, no one can stop it.

"By the way, Dao Chief, is there any way to spy on the age of this white dog?" asked Nanfeng.

Tianmu shook his head, "This thing is not an ordinary domestic dog, and it is not accurate to distinguish the hair and teeth." ”

Nanfeng didn't ask again, this white dog should be the follower of a certain Buddhist master in his previous life, and he has supernatural powers, not so much that it can devour souls, but that it can surpass the undead......
