Chapter 419: Barren Mountain

"What do you mean by that?"

The black shadow shook his head and said with a smile: "You can see that all around here are green trees, but this mountain is deserted, and not only that, there is no grass or trees. ”

I pointed to a dark locust tree not far away and said, "Isn't this a big tree?" How could there be no trees? ”

The black shadow turned his head to glance at me, and said with a smile, "Look at you, now that the Tao has reached this point, how can you still be confused by the illusion in front of you?" ”

"Illusion?"

When the car stopped, it was greeted by a winding path. The path winds and turns slowly up the hill, lined with trees and weeds.

It should normally be a scene full of life, but at this point the colors of the trees are too heavy. The deep black has no life at all, but on the contrary, it looks unusually weird.

"You say let me see the essence through the phenomenon? You mean behind this...... Another sight? ”

The shadow nodded slightly, and then he raised his hand, and a puff of black smoke went straight into my eyes. There was a faint feeling of sourness, and when I opened my eyes again, I found that the place in front of me was desolate.

There were no trees alive at all, flowers and plants, devastated and starving, and the flesh and bones were gnawing at rats and ants. The so-called trees are nothing more than smoke-made fantasies, and the root of all these illusions is the resentment of starvation.

The Raven Man stood at the foot of the mountain, looked at the tower on the mountain, and said, "The boss is up there, if you have the ability, go up." ”

"What do you mean? Aren't you going up? ”

The man shook his head lightly and said, "I don't want to go up again, I heard that two crow people were sent down by you before...... I...... I also want to be liberated. ”

The black shadow looked him up and down, and said, "Your Taoism is above them, it's a pity if you go on reporting like this." ”

The crow man shook his head lightly and said, "What's the point of everyone being ghostly like this, I've had enough, even if I have to be tortured in hell, I don't want to sink like this." ”

The dark shadow took a deep breath.

"Since you're like this, then I'll fulfill you, but there aren't many crows like you who can think so clearly, and you're willing to give up your abilities......"

"Hey, in fact, everyone doesn't want to live like this, but there is no way...... If we don't do what the boss does, we're worse off than dead. ”

The shadow nodded slightly, then gently waved his hand and pressed his arm against the raven's head.

The qi in the crowman's body slowly dissipated with the black shadow's hand, and then the black shadow drew a circle on the ground with the ghost-slaying sword. After the black mist on the Raven Man cleared, he slowly stood on the edge of the circle.

"It's not easy for outsiders to go up the mountain."

His face at this time was like ashes, as if he had gone through a catastrophe of life and death.

"What do you mean?"

"You know, we crow-men were eaten alive by his crows, and then our souls were refined. Our souls were tortured by the extreme cold and extreme cold in the refining pool, and those who could not suffer the torture and collapsed prematurely would be thrown on the mountain by the boss.

They no longer have the normal human mind, and only rely on instinct to move. They will create illusions based on the most painful thing in their memory, and the entrance to the illusion is the big trees you see in front of you. Jiujiu Chinese

"That'...... So how are we going to get up the mountain? ”

"The whole mountain is surrounded by them, so you will encounter them no matter which way you go uphill."

I frowned, standing at the foot of this mountain and looking at it, I couldn't see the top of the mountain at a glance, this mountain was full of these lonely ghosts, how many people had to kill this crow to have such a scene.

"Countless have died at his hands, and since I became this virtuous man, two hundred have been killed by my hands. That's two hundred, and I'm just one of his hundreds. ”

The Black Shadow nodded slightly, and continued, "In that case, where do you recommend us to go up the mountain from?" ”

The raven man pointed to the path up the hill in front of us, and said, "This is the road, for I have brought you here because it is the closest to the tower." ”

"How long do you have to go?"

"It's about half an hour, but this half an hour is only the time on the road, not the lonely ghosts on the road."

I nodded slightly, and smiled, "Well, in that case, we should be on our way too, and you should be on your way too." ”

The raven man smiled and jumped straight into the black whirlpool, and then the black shadow pulled out the sword that was stuck in the ground. With the Ghost Slayer Sword in hand, I walked slowly towards the mountain, and I chose to follow quietly behind me.

The two of us walked towards the mountain one after the other, along the way I and the black shadow can be said to have overcome obstacles, although these lonely ghosts and wild ghosts are more difficult, but compared to the wandering spirits on the Huangquan Road, they seem to be a little pediatric.

All the cores we encountered could be easily broken, but even then it took us a full hour to reach the top of the mountain.

At this time, the tower was not far from us, and through my perspective, I could see that the ethereal grass and trees in front of me had dissipated.

There is only bare land left here, and the desolation in front of me reminds me of the underworld.

"This guy loves cleanliness, and there is no hunger at the door."

The black shadow nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "That crow man is on the mountain, since he can control every grass and tree all over the mountain, then he must have known what we just said." ”

"How do you know?"

"Because there's surveillance?"

"Surveillance?"

The shadow nodded slightly, then picked up a small stone from the ground. He flicked it in his hand, then suddenly turned and threw it at a tree.

And at the moment when the stone was thrown out of his hand, a dark blue crow fell on the branch of the tree, which had nothing at all.

The crow turned into a black mist and disappeared the moment it fell, and at the place where the crow disappeared, a crow man suddenly appeared.

"You trespass on forbidden land...... There is no mercy for killing. ”

With that, the crow man's arms burst out, and a pair of black feather wings spread out in an instant. And at the moment when the pair of wings spread, a black mist condensed and several white blue crows flew out from between his wings.
