Chapter 12: The Grave of the Dead

Qingxu City, where the curfew was imposed, was very quiet at night, and there was no figure to be seen on the wide street, only the lanterns lit by the doors of each house were gently blown by the wind, shaking a few lights and shadows

When he came to the street in the south of the city, Bai Mei saw a fairly small restaurant with lights blooming from afar, and when he walked to the front of the building, Bai Mei looked up: Cirrus Cloud Building

This is it. Finding a place, Bai Mei walked in, although it was not yet closed, there was no longer a table of guests in the Cirrus Cloud Building, only two or three guys were wiping the table that was clean enough to look in the mirror, and a sleepy boss lying on the counter.

Walking to the counter, Bai Mei gently knocked on the countertop: "Boss, stay in the hotel." ”

The boss, who was knocked on the white eyebrows and woke up suddenly, squinted a little sleepy, looked at the young man in front of him, and it took a long time to react: "Oh, oh." Staying in the hotel, yes, okay, good. We have a regular room here for a dollar a night, including dinner. The upper room is three dollars of silver a night, and all three meals are included. What kind of accommodation do you live?"

After thinking about it, Bai Mei said, "Just an ordinary room." ”

"Okay, wait a minute. Xiao Zhao, take this guest officer to room No. 3 on the third floor. With a smile on his face, the owner of Cirrus Mansion greeted a guy and walked to the guest room with white eyebrows.

"Boss, how dare this person come out at night. And are you mistaken, the third floor is all upper rooms, and the ordinary guest rooms are on the second floor. Bai Mei went upstairs, and another guy suddenly came over and said to the boss suspiciously.

"So you're the guy and I'm the boss. You are a newcomer, you may not know, do you dare to leave the door open at night?"

After thinking about it, the guy said, "I don't know." ”

"That's because, there is a monk living in my cirrus building, and with him in charge, what else is there to be afraid of. And when the monk came, it was also night, but he was two people, and this one was one. Looking at the direction of going upstairs, the boss thought in his heart, if this was also a monk just now, then there would be two monks in his cirrus building.

Do you want to let this news out, if that's the case, more people will definitely come, and maybe I can become a special post for the monk.

As soon as he thought of this, the eyes of the owner of Cirrus Cloud Tower began to glow with golden light.

As soon as he saw the appearance of the boss, the guy next to him shook his head helplessly, his boss is good, but he loves to daydream......

The days of running made Bai Mei sleep very comfortably, and the sunlight outside the window had overflowed into the house.

After washing up a little, Bai Mei opened the door and went downstairs.

Compared with the cold last night, the cirrus cloud building during the day is particularly lively, the seats in the hall on the first floor are almost full, and there are even many people queuing at the door.

As soon as Bai Mei got downstairs, a guy who was busy on the side hurriedly put down the work in his hand and ran to Bai Mei: "This master, a guest invites you to come over and talk." ”

"Please me?" Bai Mei, who came to Qingxu City for the first time, didn't know anyone except for the Lang Zhong who saved him last night, so who would invite him?

Nodding, Bai Mei followed behind the guy to a table near the corner. A man and a woman were holding a cup of tea in this seat, and when they saw Bai Mei coming, the man in them immediately put down the teacup and arched his hand towards Bai Mei: "Here, Taoist friend, please." ”

Sitting down suspiciously, Bai Mei said, "You are looking for me, we shouldn't know each other, right?" ”

The man smiled when he heard this: "He Naiping, this is my junior sister Tao Lingshan." We also heard from the shopkeeper that a Taoist friend came to complain yesterday, so we sent Xiao Er to invite a Taoist friend to come over and talk about it. What do you call a fellow Daoist?"

"Just call me Whiteeyebrow. After reporting his name, he said with white eyebrows: "Do you have anything to do with me?"

"Presumably, Daoist friends came to this remote town at this time, and it was also for that ruin. He Naiping took a sip of tea and said meaningfully.

"No, I'm cultivating in a deep mountain not far from here, but I just happened to pass by, and I don't know what ruins you are talking about. Shaking his head, Bai Mei explained.

"Oh, that's right. With a gleam in his eyes, He Naiping continued: "Then if Brother Baimei has nothing to do recently, you can go with us to explore the ruins." ”

"What exactly are the ruins you are talking about?" asked Bai Mei.

"We don't know the details of this very well, we only know that three years ago in Qingxu City, didn't some so-called Yin people suddenly appear and arrest people everywhere. Later, the Qingxu City Lord spent a lot of money and invited two disciples of the sect to come and find out the reason.

These two investigated and found that a huge crack had somehow cracked in the Wuya ravine fifty miles of Qingxu City, and the crack was filled with dense fog and yin qi. When they went in, it turned out that the crack went straight to the belly of Wuya Mountain, and inside was the remains of a corpse powerhouse.

At that time, the two disciples wanted to go in and search, but they found that there was a tight barrier shrouded outside the mound, although due to the movement of the mountain, the barrier was unstable and broken, but it would take three years before they could enter completely.

After learning the news, the two disciples secretly sold the news to an intelligence organization, and as a result, the intelligence organization was destroyed by the enemy a month later, and the news was leaked.

This is not about to be close to the opening time of the enchantment, and there are already many monks gathered around Qingxu City, waiting to enter the tomb to find out.

So the two of me also want to invite Brother Bai Mei to explore the tomb together, and we can divide the items we get fairly, how about it?"

"No need, I'm not interested in that mound, let's find someone else. He threw down a sentence without being salty, and Bai Mei got up and left.

Seeing that Bai Mei was so decisive and refused, Tao Lingshan beside He Naiping had a very unpleasant expression: "Senior brother, this person doesn't know how to lift." ”

Looking at the direction in which Bai Mei left, He Naiping's eyes were deep: "It's a pity, this person's cultivation is not low, if he can really take it over, this time to explore the ruins, he can also make many trips." ”

......

rejected He Naiping and the two, Bai Mei went straight out of the Cirrus Cloud Building, walked on the street, Bai Mei secretly said in his heart, the two people just now seemed polite, and wanted to invite him to hunt for treasures together.

But Bai Mei is not stupid, two groups of strangers who have met suddenly mentioned that they want to invite you to explore a treasure. Even a blind person can see it.

I know that the two monks are not good-hearted. Bai Mei didn't even bother to say polite words, and refused to leave directly. However, I still have to see for myself whether the grave they are talking about is true or not.

......

Xiaodian Town is a small town located at the foot of Wuya Mountain, the scale of the town is not large, covering an area of 100 miles, and there are only more than 1,000 households.

Three years ago, there was a sudden landslide on Wuya Mountain, and countless debris rolled down, destroying most of the originally small town at once. Just when the people in the town lamented the bad luck and the natural disaster. Another calamity struck at the same time

At the beginning, the population of Xiaodian Town was less than 600 people due to the landslide, and in the month after the Yin people appeared, it was rapidly reduced to less than 300 people.

After receiving an urgent request for help from the townspeople of Xiaodian Town, Qingxucheng immediately sent a pair of officers and soldiers, but on the first night of the expedition to Xiaodian Town, under the advice of the townspeople of Xiaodian Town, they insisted on exploring at night.

As a result, the next day, a team of nine people, all disappeared.

The officials sent by Qingxu City were all arrested, and the Qingxu City Lord suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately invited two sect monks.

Under the investigation of two monks, the remains of the mound in the belly of Mt. Ooya were discovered. And this news, the two monks naturally couldn't tell the Qingxu City Lord, but only told him that at this time, a Jedi formed by heaven and earth would naturally disappear after three years.

After listening to the conclusions of the two monks, although the Qingxu City Lord still had doubts, he was not easy to question. Only a notice can be issued, ordering all civilians within the area of Xucheng to not travel at night. At the same time, the remaining townspeople of Xiaodian Town were also moved to the next town.

Now that the three-year period has arrived, there are many monks inside and outside Qingxu City who have heard the news of the Wuya Mountain Tomb, and the Qingxu City Lord naturally understands the truth of the matter, but after so much time, it is impossible for him to find those two monks to settle the account, and in desperation, he can only curse a few words secretly.

Although he was jealous that the two monks had deceived him, now that there were many monks gathered near Qingxu City, it made the Qingxu City Lord feel a sense of security.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Qing Xu City Lord Kong Chenyue looked at the two men in the guest seat with a smile on his face, and raised his teacup: "Two real people, let's settle this matter?"

A burly man on the guest seat nodded: "Well, but let's talk about it." I don't know if there is Kai Mengdan in that tomb, if there is, my brothers will try their best to help you bring it out, if not, then you can only listen to the destiny of heaven. ”

"Naturally, you can rest assured. Even if there is no Kaimengdan, I will never deduct a word from the price we say. The folds on his face are squeezed out of deep grooves, Kong Chenyue said.

Hearing Kong Chenyue say this, the red-faced man showed a satisfied smile: "Okay, since that's the case." My two brothers went ahead of the curve. ”

"Okay, you two go slowly. Getting up to see off the two monks, the smile on Kong Chenyue's face disappeared little by little, and he picked up the two oily jade balls on the table, and the corners of Kong Chenyue's eyes showed a touch of brilliance.

In today's world, the imperial court and the sect coexist.

Even many important cities are guarded by some major sects, and the city lords are also served by monks with advanced cultivation.

Also as the city lord, Kong Chenyue's Qingxu City is just a small city in a remote corner, and he, the city lord, is not a monk, just an ordinary person with a little power.

The exposure of the remains of Wuya Mountain made a large number of monks rush in, and also made Kong Chenyue, who was very satisfied with the status quo before, see the narrowness of his vision.

I don't know who said that there is a Kaimeng Dan in the remains of Wuya Mountain that can allow ordinary people to step into the immortal path. At this moment, he was envious of the methods of many monks, especially Kong Chenyue, who was obsessed with the effect of cultivating immortals to prolong life, and his mind suddenly became lively.

After that, through various channels and means, Kong Chenyue finally contacted the two monks, and after paying a great price, the other party finally agreed to help him take him out if he found Kai Mengdan when exploring the tomb.

After all, Kaimeng Dan is the supreme holy relic for ordinary people, and it is the key to the Immortal Path. For monks, Kaimeng Pill is just a slightly valuable elixir, although the effect is amazing, but it can only be used by ordinary people, so that ordinary people who can't cultivate can cultivate, but the qualifications are inferior, and it has no effect on the monks themselves.
