Chapter 519, Funeral Procession
Under the guidance of Shen Tuya, Tang Yao easily achieved the so-called branding, in fact, the preliminary steps are the same as subduing the ancient spirits, all of which are to act on the two ancient spirits through their qi and magnetic field through obsidian, but these two ancient spirits already have masters, so they can refuse to be branded, and they need to give up their own defenses for the branding to work.
Tang Yao's imprint on them could not destroy these two ancient spirits, but he could torture these two ancient spirits through his own qi and imprint, saying that a thought would make them worse than dead, but as long as he meditated for a while, he could make the two ancient spirits feel great pain.
After the branding was completed, Tang Yao walked along the mountain road to the foot of the mountain under the guidance of the old woman, without further ado, he had to hurry up to find the key person who passed the assessment.
"Shen Tuya, did you already know about the brand, why didn't you tell me, could it be that you are afraid that I will also brand you, hehe, I didn't see it, you are quite thoughtful." Tang Yao raised his eyebrows and said to Shen Tuya as he walked down the mountain, of course, his tone was just ridicule and he didn't blame.
"I didn't say it because I wouldn't betray you, and when you became the master chosen by the obsidian, you became my master, and our brand was formed from the moment you took control of the obsidian." Shen Tuya replied very seriously.
Tang Yao hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't care, I don't mean to blame you, hurry up, you go back to the obsidian first to recuperate, and when you get to the town at the foot of the mountain, I'm afraid there will be a bad battle to fight." β
I don't know if it's because of the illusion or because the road down the mountain is relatively fast, Tang Yao felt that he hadn't walked long before he saw the entrance of the town at the foot of the mountain, and at the end of the road there was an archway standing, and on the archway hung two dimly lit lanterns.
The old woman and the woman didn't dare to move forward anymore after they were sent here, and the old woman turned back to Tang Yao and said, "We have sent you here as agreed, can you let us go?" β
Tang Yao didn't embarrass them, waved his hand and said, "You guys go, but remember that you have been branded by me, if you dare to deal with me secretly, then I'm not welcome." β
Then the two Gu Ling ran away in a gloomy manner, and at this time, Yan Lu, who was released by Tang Yao and accompanied him, whispered: "Master, I sometimes feel that you are too soft-hearted, the so-called one will succeed in ten thousand bones, and you must not be too soft-hearted if you want to achieve great things, I can understand your previous actions of not daring to kill, after all, you will definitely not be able to do it if you have not experienced this kind of thing, and killing people in this era will be very troublesome, and it is likely that you will even lose your own life, but just now the two are just Gu Ling, you can completely kill them, But you let them go anyway, and there is something more or less a legacy of them. β
After Yan Lu finished speaking, he lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything, afraid that he would anger Tang Yao by talking too much for a while, but Tang Yao patted it on the shoulder and said: "What you said is right, but that is an ambitious person, I actually don't have that much ambition, I just want to make more money, and I just need to live a comfortable life in the future, so what will be successful has nothing to do with me." β
Yan Lu said: "Fate does not change by human will, maybe you have unconsciously embarked on the road of emperor, but you yourself have not realized it, and ...... If you don't have ambition, you can't become strong, and if you can't become strong, you'll always be the little person who can't do anything in front of the Yi Qi clan......"
"Shut up!"
Tang Yao was instantly furious, this low roar scared Yan Lu out of half his life, and it hurriedly knelt on the ground, its body trembling slightly.
Tang Yao realized that he had gone too far, and immediately pulled Yan Lu up and said very seriously: "I know you are for my good, but ......"
Tang Yao didn't continue to say halfway through the words, and after thinking about it, he said: "You are right, I shouldn't forget the humiliation at that time, but I want to live in this world in my own way, if all the people in the world are pursuing fame and fortune, and want to turn themselves into a big man on the top by unscrupulous means, then I would rather choose to be a small person forever, maybe people like me don't deserve success, but this is my way of life, unless I touch my bottom line, otherwise I will leave a way for others to survive." β
After speaking, Tang Yao raised his feet and walked towards the archway, while Yan Lu raised his head and looked at Tang Yao's back, sighed helplessly and said, "Master, you ...... After all, he is only nineteen years old, which is a little naΓ―ve. β
Standing under the archway, Tang Yao looked up, the name of the town was Yong'an, Tang Yao hadn't heard of it, and it should have been made up by Huang Zhe, but the two lanterns hanging on the archway were white, which was obviously very unlucky.
"Why did you hang the white lantern?" Tang Yao muttered to himself strangely.
At this time, there was a gong sound on the road ahead, Tang Yao looked at it, and saw a white expanse in the distance, as if many people in white clothes were walking this way, throwing paper money while walking, Tang Yao immediately understood that he had met someone's funeral procession, but he felt strange, why would someone have a funeral in the middle of the night, isn't this all to be completed before the morning of the day?
"Is it because the customs are different in each place?" Tang Yao muttered to himself.
Then he stepped over the archway, and at this moment a lantern above his head fell, and the lantern passed in front of Tang Yao, and the firelight flashed in Tang Yao's eyes, and Tang Yao saw a flower in front of him, but at the same time, he also understood that the town in this archway was actually the third illusion.
A triple illusion realm, Tang Yao couldn't help but start admiring Huang Zhe, although this old guy wanted his own life, but the means of illusion were clever enough, a master who could perform a triple illusion in an illusion, Tang Yao had only seen Huang Zhe with his own eyes.
The funeral procession in front of him gradually approached, Tang Yao regained his eyesight and hurriedly stood on the side of the street, the funeral procession was getting closer and closer, and at the same time Tang Yao heard some strange sounds, which sounded like someone was knocking on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock......"
One after another, very hurried, Tang Yao looked around, although there were many houses around, but there was no one at the door, naturally there would be no knocking sound, so where did this rapid knocking sound come from.
At this time, the funeral dealt with Tang Yao's face, and at the same time, the hurried sound seemed to be very close to Tang Yao, yellow paper money was floating in the air, and the gong was followed by a knocking sound like hitting the wooden door, but no one heard this abnormal sound, and the funeral procession walked forward neatly, as if nothing had been heard.
At this time, the coffin in the center of the team happened to pass in front of Tang Yao, and there was another "bang" sound, but this time Tang Yao clearly heard that the sound was actually coming from the coffin.
"Knock knock ......" was the sound of two consecutive knocks, Tang Yao was even more sure that the sound was coming from the coffin, but the coffin was the place where the body was placed, could it be that the body knocked on the coffin board by itself?
"Could it be a zombie, it's possible, after all, in this illusion world, except for me, there are all ancient spirits, and it's not impossible to make an ancient spirit that is the same as a zombie, but it's too weird, why does the funeral team carry away a zombie in the middle of the night?" Tang Yao guessed in his heart, and couldn't help but plan to follow quietly.
But just as he was about to follow, the entire funeral procession suddenly stopped, and the next moment, all the people in the funeral procession turned their heads to stare at Tang Yao in a strange way at the same time.
Where is this person carrying the coffin, there is no normal living person in the entire funeral procession, all of them are strangely shaped demon-shaped ancient spirits, this is not counting, their eyes looking at Tang Yao are not very friendly, as if Tang Yao disturbed their important ceremony, and their eyes look eager to eat Tang Yao.
"Let me out, is there anyone outside, is there anyone, help me."
At this time, a voice came from the coffin, and someone actually called for help.
If there is a zombie-like spirit lying in the coffin, then how can it be possible to call for help, is it not a zombie lying in the coffin, but a person, or a spirit playing the role of a human?
"Are you in the coffin, who are you?" Tang Yao didn't care so much and immediately asked in a loud voice.
"My surname is Zhou, I was caught by these guys, can you save me, hurry up and save me." The person in the coffin hurriedly answered after hearing Tang Yao's question.
