Chapter 785: A Hundred Ghosts Walk at Night
Chu Huan was a little surprised when he heard Xuanyuan Shengcai claim to have seen the Tianmen Demon Dao, and asked, "Where did you see it?" ”
"Within Huzhou." Xuanyuan Shengcai said solemnly: "My lord knows, we will send scouts to explore the road in advance, that night, two scouts in front of the way, after coming back, they said that they saw a very strange situation. ”
"What's the situation?"
"There was a great crowd of people gathered together in the middle of the night and went to one place." Xuanyuan Shengcai said softly: "It is reported that there are more than 200 people, all of whom took advantage of the dead of night to secretly walk on the remote paths, and the scouts saw this situation and felt that something was wrong, so they hurriedly went back to report me." ”
"What happened?"
Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "I also think that more than 200 people don't stay at home in the middle of the night, but secretly gather together, and the things are weird. ”
"We took off our armor and wore only ordinary clothes, and in less than half an hour we found the group of people walking on foot." Xuanyuan Shengcai's expression was solemn, "When we found them, there were nearly a hundred more of them, and along the way, they walked in deserted places, and from time to time people joined the team on the way, I led people to intercept a few people who gathered on the way, took five people to change their clothes, and sent another five people to bring those people back to the camp. ”
Chu Huan said: "General Xuanyuan is going to fish in troubled waters. ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai smiled bitterly: "Hundreds of people, their clothes are in tatters, they are all poor people at first glance, if we don't change our clothes, we will be very conspicuous in the crowd, and we will be seen through by them all of a sudden." ”
"What happened?"
"We blended into the crowd and followed the crowd all the way, leaving marks along the way." Xuanyuan Shengcai said slowly: "Until the dawn of the day, only to arrive at a mountain forest, into the mountain forest, I saw two Taoist priests waiting at the mountain pass, brought the people into a cave in the mountain, the cave is very spacious, can accommodate nearly a thousand people, we entered the inside, only to find that there have been one or two hundred people gathered inside, before and after the sum up, there are more than 500 people ......!" ”
"All the people?" Chu Huan frowned and asked.
Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "Exactly, they are all ragged people, these people entered the cave, and sat around on the edge of a big stone platform in the cave, a few of us smeared mud on our faces, mixed in the crowd, and waited for a small half a day, the sky was bright, only to see an old Taoist priest suddenly appeared, those people saw the old Taoist priest, immediately bowed to him ......!" ”
Chu Huan's expression was grim, and he sneered: "The demon path of the crooked and evil way! ”
The old Taoist priest climbed the big stone platform and recited a mantra, and I didn't hear what he was chanting clearly, but the people present looked very pious, and they looked at the old Taoist priest's eyes, just like ...... It's like watching a fairy ......! Xuanyuan Sheng recalled the scene he had just experienced not long ago, and his expression remained solemn from beginning to end: "The old Taoist priest recited the Sutra for a long time, and all the people were silent, after a long time, I suddenly saw the old Taoist priest take out a stone and put it in his left hand, in front of everyone, the dust in his hand covered the stone, he read a few words, and after he took it away, the stone ...... That stone ......! Xuanyuan Shengcai was born in a martial arts sect, and he was a master of art and bold, but at this time, his face showed a look of horror, "That stone has turned into gold, and the shape is exactly the same as that stone, but it has changed from stone to gold!" ”
"Turning stones into gold?" Chu Huan snorted coldly, "This is a trick of charlatans!" ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "I also know that it must be a ghost trick, but I saw it very clearly from beginning to end, and I didn't see the slightest flaw......!" Shaking his head and saying with a wry smile: "The old Taoist's methods are indeed good, all the people are dumbfounded, and soon they all kneel down again, calling him an old immortal who saves the suffering!" ”
Chu Huan sighed: "With the general's eyesight, he can't see the flaws, and those people can't see the flaws. ”
At this time, someone brought tea up, Xuanyuan Sheng stopped and said nothing, and when the person retreated, Xuanyuan Sheng picked up the teacup, drank a small half cup, put down the teacup, and then said softly: "This is not the most unusual, after a while, two Taoist priests lit a fire on the big stone platform, and the old Taoist actually stood in the flames, unharmed...... Even his whisk is not damaged in the slightest, my lord, you say this...... Isn't this too evil? ”
Chu Huan said: "They are here to deceive the people, if they can't come up with some incredible crooked ways, they naturally can't deceive people's ......!" There was a different color in his eyes, "It seems that Tianmen Dao is really about to move in Anyi Dao, and the southeast is in turmoil, and they have extended their tentacles to Anyi's side again......!" ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai said again: "These two hands are exposed, and the people already regard him as a god, and at this time, the demon Dao began to talk nonsense, what ......!" After a pause, he stopped talking, as if some words were inconvenient to say.
Chu Huan said softly: "General Xuanyuan doesn't have to worry, there are only you and me here, what do you have to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai sighed at this time: "That old Taoist priest said that the Holy One is...... But the evil demon came into the world, transformed into human form, and poisoned the people, if it is left to ...... If this evil demon is allowed to do evil, the people of the world will never be at peace, and all generations will live in the ...... of water and fire! ”
Chu Huan smiled dumbly and said, "The Holy One is an evil demon transformation? It seems that in order to bewitch the people, this Tianmen Dao has really taken great pains to prepare such a ridiculous statement. ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai shook his head and sighed: "The adults think it is ridiculous, but those people believe it is true, and many people stood up at that time, saying that the saint is poor and extravagant, and does not care about the life and death of the people, then it must be an evil demon descending into the world...... Your Excellency, you didn't see that the hundreds of people present at that time were all excited and had a ...... for the Holy One There are disrespectful words!"
"Besides, what did the old Taoist priest say?"
Xuanyuan Shengcai said solemnly: "The gate of heaven has just opened, Lao Jun has come to the world, and all my Taoist people will enjoy eternal life!" ”
"What is this?"
"This is the sixteen-character mantra of Tianmen Dao to bewitch the people." Xuanyuan Shengcai said in a deep voice: "The old Taoist priest claims that the Holy Lord is the descendant of the evil demons, and only the Taishang Laojun can subdue the evil demons and return the people to the world." But Taishang Laojun is a great immortal in the sky, and he will not go down to earth easily, only if the people are united and pious, can they beg Taishang Laojun to be born in the world and save the people from the dire situation. ”
Chu Huan picked up the teacup and didn't speak.
"The old Taoist priest also said that he was a messenger sent by Taishang Laojun to the world, aware of the suffering of the mortal world, and Taishang Laojun sent nearly 100 messengers from heaven, as long as these messengers are supported by the people, they can open the gate of heaven and welcome Taishang Laojun to the mortal world." Xuanyuan Shengcai couldn't help but clench his fists, "Before Taishang Laojun came to the world, if you can convert to Laojun, worship Tianmen Dao, and become a disciple of Tianmen Dao, then when Laojun comes into the world, as long as you are a Tianmen Daoist, you will enjoy eternal blessings!" ”
Chu Huan smiled bitterly, for those poor people, the difficult life made their hearts full of resentment, they hated the court deeply, when someone stood up and claimed that His Majesty the Emperor was a demon, the people were naturally convinced, at this time, Tianmen Dao took the opportunity to claim that Taishang Laojun could save them from fire and water, how could they not worship.
Xuanyuan Shengcai took another sip of tea and put down the teacup, "In addition, what else does that old demon Dao say is that the universe is reversed, and the yin and yang are misplaced...... What do you say about ghosts and ghosts, ...... cause trouble! His brows furrowed, "My lord, you arrived in Taiyuan before me, but I heard that this place is haunted?" ”
"Haunted?" Chu Huan instantly thought of those haunted villages.
Xuanyuan Sheng nodded and said, "Exactly." The old demon Dao claimed that the Holy One was born into the world by demons, and he acted perversely, causing the living beings to be miserable, and the Yin and Yang were dislocated, and what the Holy One did had already made the Three Realms resentful, the heavenly realm uneasy, the mortal world was suffering, and the Yin Division was chaotic ......! His brows locked, and he said in a low voice: "He said that the grievances of the netherworld have broken through the ghost gate, and those resentful ghosts have come out of the ghost gate and caused chaos in the world...... If there is no protection from the Heavenly Gate, the people will be haunted by unjust ghosts, and the sun and moon will be gone...... My lord, is this Anyi really haunted? ”
Chu Huan sneered: "I was only suspicious before, but now I can be sure!" ”
"What?"
"Those strange things in Anyi Dao are really the work of Tianmen Dao behind the scenes." Chu Huan sneered: "They are pretending to be ghosts everywhere just to scare the people...... Tianmen Dao is really an evil and crooked way, using these despicable and shameless means to bewitch the people, side doors, disturb the world, and poison the people, which must be eliminated. Xuanyuan Shengcai immediately clenched his fists and said angrily: "My lord, according to what you say, those who pretend to be ghosts behind their backs must be people from Tianmen Dao, it seems that now they have extended their hands to Anyi Dao, my lord, Tianmen Dao is sneaky, demagoguery, pretending to be ghosts, we must not guard against it!" ”
Chu Huan bowed slightly, returned his gaze to Xuanyuan Shengcai's face, and asked, "That group of demons has been captured by you?" ”
Xuanyuan Shengcai looked a little embarrassed, and said ashamedly: "My lord, we didn't catch them, but we almost died in their hands......!" "I felt very embarrassed, and my face was a little red.
Chu Huan said "oh", Xuanyuan Shengcai had already explained: "The old demon Dao bewitched the people, those people have to enter the Tianmen Dao one by one, to welcome the bullshit Laojun, the old demon Dao made people carry out an outline, the jar was filled with a whole jar of wine, the old demon Dao said to the people, if you want to enter the Dao, you must make a blood oath, in the future, the Daomen but there is an order, the Daomen disciples will respond positively, he asked the people to walk to the edge of the outline one by one, whoever wants to enter the Dao, first use a knife to cut a hole in the finger, drop two drops of blood into the jar, Then drink a small half bowl of wine ......! ”
Chu Huan stared at Xuanyuan Shengcai and listened carefully.
"I and a few brothers were in the crowd, and we were also lining up, and when it was my turn, I saw that the wine in the vat was a little muddy, and the people in front of me had two drops of blood each, and the vat was mixed with wine and blood, which was very terrible." Xuanyuan Shengcai smiled bitterly: "It's also blame that I can't hold my breath, that vat is only a few steps away from the old demon road, I saw that the opportunity could not be missed, so I ......!" Shaking his head and sighing, "So I made a move!" ”
