Chapter Twenty-Seven Returns in Vain
[The book continued from the above, and the last book said that Mu Qingming and his party of dragon lockers escaped the corruption of Tai Sui's corpse water, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. After landing, they entered the back of the bronze gate, and saw the moon phase vine that imprisoned and restrained Tai Sui, blocking the way. After destroying the moon phase vine, the way to the road appeared, but Mu Qingming and Mo Han both sensed that on the way, there was a breath of anger and spirits, and it seemed that there was a powerful ghost. Led out Mu Qingming and other dragon lockers to continue to move forward, in the environment of powerful ghosts, they couldn't see their five fingers, and their ability to see in the dark was completely lost. By the time they could see their surroundings again, they had come to the depths of the mountain, on the edge of a pool hidden in the belly of the mountain. 】
On the mountain behind the west mountain, a large forest stands that covers the sky and the sun, making the mountain full of darkness.
The ground was covered with a broad canopy of trees with luxuriant foliage, and the dim shade cast by the spread out spread spread throughout the mountains.
Only birds and beasts come and go in the deserted back mountains, and almost even hunters are reluctant to set foot in the depths of this place.
In the shadows, whether it is a tree with branches or a dense shrub, it always makes people reverie and make their hearts palpitate.
In addition, in recent years, several people who have been close to the back mountain have disappeared forever, and they have disappeared inexplicably, and there is no trace of them, which is also a reason for fear.
After hearing about these things, people rumored that there were man-eating beasts in the back mountains, and for a while they were afraid and panicked, and this rumor spread around.
The mountains behind the West Mountain have become a place for people to be frightened for a while, and even the woodcutter collects firewood, even if the mountains and trees are everywhere, they have to find another place.
Never set foot in the back mountains lightly.
In fact, there are no man-eating beasts, but they are just the work of immortal Taoists entrenched in the mountains.
They seized the people who dared to approach the back mountain, imprisoned them in a stronghold, and carried out inhumane experiments.
It can be said that the Changshengdao has completely controlled most of the West Mountain, including the back mountain.
And in the depths of the forest in the back mountain, surrounded by a piece of good wood, in a clearing with a diameter of only about one zhang, stood four immortal Taoists.
They were scattered on all sides of the clearing, facing the periphery, staring intently ahead, all shrubs and trees, a green place shrouded in shadows.
Behind the cultists, in the middle of the clearing, there was a hill of seven or eight white skeleton heads, built on the ground.
Buried underneath this is the wood ghost that the Immortal Dao needs to make.
The rich yin qi flowed underground, converging here, and constantly injecting into the underground's wood ghost womb that had not yet fully formed, strengthening the ghost qi of the wood ghost.
In just a few days, the clearing suddenly turned completely black and turned into a strange color.
It won't be long before the wood ghosts of the Immortal Dao will be created.
Suddenly, there was a noise in the woods in the distance, and the sound of rustling came from the slightly swaying grass and trees, and several disciples guarding the clearing became nervous.
They all turned around and faced the place where the grass and trees were shaking.
Then, when they saw the familiar four protectors walking out of the dense bushes, they breathed a sigh of relief, put away their previous nervousness, and saluted the four people who came together.
"Sect Leader Liu has an order, starting today, the matter of the wood ghost will be handed over to us for safekeeping." As he said this, the Eastern Protector stood on the edge of the clearing, and glanced at the middle of the clearing.
The other three Dharma Protectors also looked at the center.
They are all people who are not shallow in their ways, even if they are dead corpses that have come back from the dead, they can see at a glance that there is a pregnant female corpse buried under the soil.
The female corpse was lifeless except for the abdomen, and only the abdomen was full of ghosts.
Inside, it is a wood ghost ghost fetus. The female corpse is a container for raising the fetus.
After reading it, the East Protector looked away, and the index finger and ring finger of his right hand couldn't help but tremble.
The disciples over there have already said, "Yes, we have also received orders from the sect leader. ”。
"Leave it to us." The Eastern Dharma Protector stopped and said to the four disciples.
The four of them did not hesitate, nodded their heads, and left the place together.
After the four disciples left, the East Protector took a few steps forward and squatted on the edge of the spire built by the hundreds of ghosts in the middle, and took a closer look......
In the belly of Liangwang Mountain.
In the stone room, which has been hidden deep in the belly of the mountain and has been ignored for thousands of years, Mu Qingming only finished speaking, and before the echo disappeared, the disciple Zhang Xiaosheng said: "I knew that there were powerful ghosts here, so we brought some wicker or peach wood." ”。
All these things he said can be used to fight ghosts.
Zhang Xiaosheng's idea is very simple, that is, with these things, he can easily defeat ghosts.
However, Zhang Xiaosheng is still too young and too inexperienced.
"Huh." At that moment, Mu Qingming walked forward and said, "What you said is only useful for little ghosts. It's an old ghost, and the stuff you talked about is useless to them. ”。
As he spoke, Mu Qingming had already stood in front of the door, and slowly stretched out his hand behind the door.
The darkness behind the door immediately engulfed Mu Qingming's palms and fingers. Mu Qingming also immediately sensed the darkness, containing a regular flow of ghost qi and yin qi.
And even if he was close, Mu Qingming couldn't see his palms and fingers stretched into the ink-like darkness.
"They?" Zhang Xiaosheng was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, "Is there more than one ghost?" ”。
"There may be more than one." Mu Qingming retracted his hand and said, "And on the way ahead, they performed a ghost spell, an unfathomable ghost spell. See all this darkness? They are made by ghostly magic. ”。
When Mu Qingming said this, he turned around and returned to everyone's side, gave his disciple Ah Hong a look, and motioned him to put down the bamboo box on his back.
Zhang Xiaosheng also came over curiously, he knew what was in the bamboo box, but he didn't know what Mu Qingming was going to do with it?
However, it seems that whether it is the powerful ghost in it or the ghost technique, Mu Qingming has a way to crack it.
"This kind of ghosting is still ancient, and if we just walk in unsuspectingly, it will cause us a lot of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations." Mu Qingming squatted down, opened the bamboo box, and brought out two large red-crowned roosters from inside.
These two roosters were specially brought by them for this trip.
Because of the appearance of ancient witches here, Mu Qingming didn't know if there would be Gu insects in this underground palace, so he made preparations in advance.
After all, ancient wizards were also good at Gu arts, so they had to guard against it.
And these two roosters are old roosters raised by Tie Hua and his wife for ten years, and they have never been close to the hens in ten years. In addition, they are often fed with herbs, and although the two roosters are aging, their combs and feathers are more vivid, and there is no sign of aging on their bodies.
The eyes of these two roosters were not cloudy, and they were full of golden light.
This kind of rooster has enough yang energy in his body, and he is born to be the nemesis of Gu worms. Mu Qingming originally brought them here, just in case, when he encountered Gu worms, he would have a good correspondence, so that he would not be poisoned by Gu worms.
I didn't expect that the Gu worm hadn't encountered it for the time being, but the ghost magic had encountered it.
Fortunately, it is very coincidental that the crowing of this kind of rooster is also the nemesis of some ghosts.
As soon as the two roosters came out of the cage, they held their heads high, and a loud crow resounded all around.
The crisp and loud chirping sound was deafening, lingering in the stone chamber for a long time, echoing continuously.
The darkness behind the door, with the sound of rooster crows, faded a little, and was not as dense as before.
In the eyes of Ah Hong and Zhang Xiaosheng, this scene was very novel when they were surprised.
Mu Qingming took out two long strong ropes, quickly knotted them into a rope sleeve, and wrapped the necks of the two roosters, and then handed the other end of the rope to Ah Hong, asking him to lead the chickens.
Zhang Xiaosheng felt even more novel, he had seen the cow and the sheep, and the dog, this was the first time he had seen the chicken.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Qingming picked up the bamboo box that Ah Hong was carrying before, took out a small bottle from his sleeve, walked to the door and tilted the mouth of the bottle, and several blue-green vegetable insects fell out of it.
This has also been prepared for a long time.
As soon as the vegetable insects hit the ground, they writhed their fat bodies on the ground.
The strong yin and ghost qi not far away made these rookie insects feel uneasy.
As soon as the two roosters saw it, they immediately pulled their legs and rushed forward, scrambling to hold down the insects on the ground with their sharp claws, and pecked them clean in three or five strokes.
"We follow the chickens, even if we can't see the surroundings, we can break out of this ghostly magic." Mu Qingming said, standing beside Ah Hong, letting Ah Hong's other hand turn into a vine and wrap around his waist.
Letting Zhang Xiaosheng pull Ah Hong's tail again, Mu Qingming reached back and grabbed Mo Han's hand.
The ghost spell is ineffective against this kind of rooster, so it can't trap these two roosters.
Mu Qingming's method is very effective, and he can leave the ghost magic by following the rooster.
"Ah Hong, I'm in front of you." After Mu Qingming finished speaking, Ah Hong nodded.
Zhang Xiaosheng in the back swallowed his saliva, and there was still a little fear in his eyes.
What he was afraid of was not the ghost hidden behind the door, but the ghost magic he was afraid of.
Mu Qingming and Ah Hong, together with Ah Hong, walked forward and entered the back of the door.
At the same time, Ah Hong gently lifted the hand holding the rope and clenched it into a fist, leaving a thin slit in the middle, and leaned it against his mouth.
With the iron birch called him ventriloquism, he made a cooing sound into his fists.
This sound, like the soft whisper of a hen when she used to dig the soil, inspired the two roosters to keep moving forward.
In the darkness, the group was immediately surrounded by darkness, and at the same time, there was a biting cold around them, which kept coming.
In the darkness where you can't see your fingers, even if the dragon-locking man's eyes are abnormal, he can no longer see secretly.
It's not that the darkness is too thick, it's that this kind of ghostly magic has the ability to block the hearing and vision of the people in it.
Not only will people who are in it encounter all kinds of hallucinations and hear all kinds of auditory hallucinations, but they will also be blocked from sight and hearing, so they will go around in circles and walk back to the original place unconsciously.
This kind of ghost technique, Mu Qingming can't do it.
But fortunately, they have creatures that will not be controlled by this technique, those two roosters, so they are not worried.
Everyone pulled each other tight and followed the rooster forward.
Although they can't hear or see anything, they can at least feel each other's breath because they are very close.
I can also feel the breath of those two roosters.
plus two roosters, sometimes they can't help but crow loudly, but Mu Qingming and they can hear the rooster crow, just follow the rooster crow all the way, so as not to get lost in the dark.
As she walked, Mo Han felt it, so she used her mind to transmit the sound to Mu Qingming, who was holding her hand in front of her, and said secretly: "Mu, do you feel it?" We were slowly going down, as if we were going deeper underground. ”。
"It's strange to say." After a pause, Mo Han also said secretly: "I have also seen a lot of ancient tombs, but I haven't seen the upper and lower floors yet." ”。
After all, according to the content of the witch text explained by Mu Qingming before, this place was once the mausoleum of the ancient Dian king.
That being the case, it should be the same as the specifications of the mausoleum.
The ancient tomb divided between the upper and lower floors, Mo Han has never seen it.
"Some of the ancient tombs are very special, and it is not surprising that there are two or three layers above and below." Mu Qing pondered for a moment, and replied with his mind.
As soon as the words came out, their eyes suddenly lit up and they rushed out of the darkness.
They have been walking for a long time in the boundless darkness.
Although there were two roosters leading the way, so that they did not lose their sense of direction, nor were they driven crazy by the endless darkness, and they did not encounter terrible hallucinations or auditory hallucinations, they still felt a little tired after walking for a long time.
Seeing the long-lost light again, I can't help but be excited.
As the eyes lit up, several people's eyes suddenly brightened.
In front of the eyes of the dragon lockers, there is a wide and tall circular cave.
The roof of the cave hung with an upside-down stalactite, like the sharp fangs of a giant beast's bloody mouth, hanging from their heads.
Looking back again, a few times behind him, there was a wide stone crack, which was where they came from.
Behind the stone crevices, there was endless darkness, the ghostly magic they had worn before.
The two roosters had also stopped, standing in front of Ah Hong, looking curiously left and right.
And the dragon lockers saw the light, which was the glow of fluorescent light in the small lake a few feet away in front of them.
It is said to be a lake, but it is actually similar to a waterhole. The circular waterhole has a diameter of only a dozen zhang by eye.
The green waves are surging lightly, and the smoky pools on the waves are very clear, diffusing on the surface of the lake, and the white gas that gathers but does not disperse is also very thin, as thin as a light veil.
Specks of fluorescent light, like stars falling to the ground, dotted the lake and lit up most of the cavern. Only in some dark corners, still nothing can be seen.
However, the people of the dragon lock found that their eyesight had recovered, and after looking around the left and right of the eyes that had seen things secretly, they suddenly found that they had entered a confined space.
The strange rocks around the waterhole here are craggy, layered, scattered, and the ancient trees and dead piles that have been petrified can be seen everywhere. Some of the same petrified green vines were scattered, entwined around strange rocks and fossilized ancient trees. In addition, the rock walls are not smooth, and the edges of the caves come out, and except for the gaps in the way they came from, the other rock walls are tightly sealed, and there is no way out, and there are no stone crevices or caves that can accommodate people.
Even above the roof of the cave.
"We can't be in the wrong place, are we?" Zhang Xiaosheng looked left and right, and after seeing that there was no mausoleum here, let alone a way out, he said in disappointment: "This place doesn't look like it can store anything?" ”。
Mu Qing was silent, staring at the waterhole in front of him in thought.
In the middle of the waterhole, there are layers of prototype natural water platforms as white as snow, like pieces of oblique moon scattered in the world, one after the other.
Mo Han frowned and scolded Zhang Xiaosheng: "Close your crow's mouth." ”。
She was a little scared, Zhang Xiaosheng unfortunately said, then their trip would definitely be in vain.
Will the dragon lockers return in vain? Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
