The True Story Vol. 2 The Journey of the Ghost Snake_Chapter 1 The Journey to Fengdu

Qinchuan in Xishu, since ancient times, the mountains and mountains are steep, the valleys and abysses are innumerable, and there are infinite mysteries. Fengdu, located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, has a steep terrain and is the most important place in the southwest Xuanyin. Historically, there have been countless legends here, and the theory of gods and ghosts is very popular.

In Fengdu, there is a mysterious ghost mansion, which is said to have been built specifically to pay tribute to ghosts and pray for peace. No one can tell when and by whom this ancient strange cave stone mansion was built. In short, in people's impressions, it has always stood there, and it has always been guarded. Naturally, this guardian is only an outstanding disciple of Yi Yuan. For the sake of safety, since the establishment of Yi Yuan, people have been sent to guard here at all times.

The sky, overcast and overcast, was covered with clouds. A trace of black qi converged above Fengdu, and from a distance, it looked like a black mushroom, very gloomy. In the distance, more than a dozen rays of light appear and disappear in the clouds, which looks very mysterious. In mid-air, Xuanyu Zhenren glanced at the people around him and said loudly: "It's coming soon, everyone be careful, the ghost qi ahead is extremely heavy, everyone had better use their skills to protect their bodies." After speaking, the cyan light flashed all over his body, and a cloud of qi shrouded him.

Everyone in the entourage has added a layer of true qi mask outside the body to prevent danger. This time, the people who were advancing at high speed, due to the extra air cover, suddenly and the air flow that passed by quickly, there was a piercing roar, which instantly spread throughout the four fields.

On the ground, at the entrance of the Ghost Mansion, Yi Yuan's disciples all looked up when they heard a strange roar coming from the sky. I saw that in the gloomy sky, sixteen dazzling rays of light were flying at an astonishing speed. Among these brilliance, the most obvious is a five-color brilliance and a red flame light, followed by two brilliances, one purple and one yellow. Due to the speed of the speed, those people appeared in the sky above the Fengdu Ghost Mansion in an instant.

Suddenly, a disciple shouted in surprise: "It's the master and uncle who are here, quickly inform the master and uncle, hurry." As soon as these words fell, the ground suddenly shook, and many disciples went into the cave in surprise to report the news.

In front of the entrance of the Ghost Mansion Cave, the light flashed, and sixteen figures appeared in front of everyone. This group of people is naturally seven people from Yi Yuan, plus three from Phoenix Academy, three from Confucian Garden, and three from Heavenly Sword Academy, a total of sixteen people. Xuanyu Zhenren looked at the many disciples and said softly: "Everyone has worked hard, this time because of our Yi Garden, Phoenix Academy, Confucian Garden, and Heavenly Sword Academy have all sent masters to help. I believe that as long as we all work together, we will definitely be able to drive all the ghosts back. Now I will introduce to you these masters of the three academies around me, if they need anything in the future, you must do your best to help. After speaking, he slowly introduced the people around him.

It just so happened that at this time, Qianyuan Zhenren and Xuanyin Zhenren had already heard the news and rushed over. As soon as they met, both parties were surprised. Xuanyu Zhenren watched the two junior disciples shrink and turn pale, and he understood that they had tried their best. And Qianyuan and Xuanyin were also shocked when they saw the other masters of the three academies coming, and they seemed to be a little surprised. When Li Hongfei and Lin Yunfeng saw their master's appearance, they couldn't help but run to their side and look at them with concern.

Lin Yunfeng took his master's hand and tried his best to input his true yuan into his body to make up for the master's excessive consumption of vitality. Xuanyin Zhenren glanced at him, and asked with a hint of concern in his eyes: "Little ghost, did you go out to embarrass me this time, and suddenly became so good." ”

Lin Yunfeng's face changed slightly, and he said, "Master, in fact, I have tried my best, but my cultivation is still shallow, so I lost in the second theory." But I'll do my best in the future, don't worry. Let me tell you good news, this time, Lu Yun won the first place for our Yi Yuan. From now on, our Yi Yuan is already the head of the Six Academies, master, do you know, I'm so happy! Later, the whole person seemed very excited.

When Xuanyin Zhenren heard this, his face changed, he grabbed Yun Feng's hand, and asked hurriedly, "What, what you said is true?" You didn't lie to me, did we really become the head of the Six Academies? Next to him, Qianyuan Zhenren's face also changed greatly, with excitement and surprise on his face. Ziyang Zhenren looked at the two of them, with an excited look on his face, walked up to them, grabbed their hands, and said tremblingly: "What Yun Feng said is true. Lu Yun's cultivation has become the 'Five Thunder Righteous Heavenly Technique' that no one has successfully cultivated since our Yi Yuan has been in the past thousand years, and in this way, Yi Yuan has won the first place in the Six Academies. ”

The hands of the three of them were tightly clasped together, and each other's eyes were full of indescribable joy and shock. Xuanyin Zhenren glanced at Lu Yun who was a zhang away, and said to Ziyang excitedly: "Congratulations, Yang Academy has finally come out of an outstanding talent who is famous all over the world. Qianyuan Zhenren also looked at Lu Yun, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He never seemed to have thought that Lu Yun would come back after winning the first place for Yi Yuan. Glancing at Ziyang, Qianyuan Zhenren was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xuanyu Zhenren's words.

Xuanyu Zhenren looked at the two excited junior brothers, and said softly: "Okay, two junior brothers, I will tell you carefully about this matter when I have time, and now I will come to meet the distinguished guests of the Third Academy." The top priority is how to block the exit of the ghost domain, that is the important thing. Time is urgent, and we will discuss what to do with this matter soon. ”

Ziyang Zhenren let go of the two and greeted everyone with them. After everyone said a few polite words, Xuanyu Zhenren asked, "What is the situation inside now, and how long can you resist?" ”

Qianyuan Zhenren glanced at everyone, and said with a worried face: "In the past few days, there have been many ghosts that have entered the world through this exit. Since we can't separate ourselves for the time being, we can't take care of those ghosts and ghosts who have entered the world. Fortunately, there are no particularly powerful ghosts, so don't worry about it for the time being. As for the inside, as soon as the soul sealing talisman at the exit was lost, the entire exit was constantly increasing. Senior Brother Xuanyin used the 'Yi Tian Earthquake Soul Technique' with all his might, and the seal formed by it could no longer be supported, and at most every night, it would be broken through by those crazy outpouring ghosts. Once the seal is broken, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist either. ”

Hearing this, Xuanyu Zhenren glanced at the person beside him, and said with a heavy face: "Do you have any good ways to stop the outflow of ghosts?" What we have to think about now is that it will not be sealed for a while, but at least for a month. Then there will be time to send someone to the ghost realm to find the soul sealing talisman. ”

The Confucian Garden Haoyun Monk thought for a while and made a suggestion. Seeing him speak, he said: "At this time, since things have already been like this, the only way for us to do so is to seal them layer by layer outside this exit. Based on the formation, nine seals were laid in a row, sealing all the passages, so as to delay time. At the same time, send people to guard outside, and if there is a fish that slips through the net, they will kill it with all their might, and they can't give the ghosts a chance to take advantage of. ”

Next to him, Yu Wushuang said: "Now like this, I'm afraid I can't think of any good way." In addition to sending masters to guard outside here, we also have to send people who have cultivated to the ghost realm to find the soul talisman. The question now is who we should send to the ghost realm and who will stay behind, and this needs to be seriously considered. Because this will be related to the safety of the entire human world, and it is not careless at all. ”

Xuanyu Zhenren looked at Ziyang, Xuanyin, and Qianyuan who were talking on the side, and said, "Do you have any opinions, what do you think about the candidates who will go to the Ghost Domain this time?" ”

Qianyuan Zhenren had already understood the ins and outs of the matter at this time, and said: "I think this time the incident is mainly due to our negligence, plus it was too unexpected, so this kind of thing happened. Therefore, we have a great responsibility. I think that the most dangerous thing to go to the ghost realm should be left to our Yi Yuan to complete. ”

Haoyun Jushi shook his head and said, "Now that things have happened, it's useless to talk about these things anymore. We are now not asking who is responsible, but who is the most suitable person. This time we're going to have to recover the soul talisman anyway, so the main thing is to be steady. How to arrange the best candidates, in the shortest possible time. Retrieving the Soul Talisman is the key. ”

Liu Xingsoul also spoke: "Yes, if you can't retrieve the soul sealing talisman within the specified time, it will be in vain to say that you have any responsibility." Even if you want to be held accountable, you have to focus on the big things first, and put those things aside first. Now let's analyze how we should arrange the most reasonable manpower here. ”

Xuanyu Zhenren sighed lightly and said, "Everyone is right, this is indeed not the time to be held accountable. Now in our four courtyards, almost all the masters are here, calculate carefully, there are a total of eighteen people, how to arrange these eighteen people, will be the most critical thing. First of all, we need to determine how many people to send to the ghost domain, and secondly, we need to determine who to use. Everyone can put forward any ideas, and at this moment, we need to gather the wisdom of everyone in one to better tide over the difficulties. After speaking, his eyes swept over everyone.

Master Jingyue spoke: "I think that our Yi Yuan can be visited by four disciples, and their current cultivation is not worse than ours, what is missing is just some experience. This time, although the task is daunting, it is a test for them. Because whether you go to the ghost domain or stay here, you will inevitably have to fight with ghosts, and there is nothing easy about it. ”

Haoyun Monk frowned slightly, and said softly: "If you talk about the cultivation of these young people, they are indeed not worse than us. But this time the task is arduous, just sending them juniors there, I'm afraid they don't know how to deal with anything. That will delay time and make mistakes. ”

Liu Xingsoul's eyes turned and he spoke: "I think that sending them juniors is actually beneficial. Although the ghost domain is not as big as the human realm, it is not small, how to find the ghost king city in the eerie ghost domain, and find a way to recapture the soul talisman is a great test for them. As for the so-called experience, it is only in the human realm, in the realm of cultivation. If we really go to a ghost realm that we have never been to before, I am afraid that those experiences will mislead our thinking. I'm afraid none of us here have ever been to the Ghost Domain, right? Who knows what it's like in there, what's going to happen. As soon as we entered the ghost realm, we were not the same as the juniors, and we didn't know anything. ”

Yu Wushuang smiled indifferently and said softly: "That being said, after all, how can we rest assured that way." I think it's better to have someone with them, what do you think? ”

Xuanyu Zhenren looked at a few of his subordinates and asked, "What do you young people think, you might as well say it, and you can discuss it together." This time is critical, so we need to choose the best option that will increase the chances of success. After speaking, he glanced at Lu Yun, as if to remind him.

Lu Yun naturally understood what Xuanyu Zhenren meant, and couldn't help but glance at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Regarding this matter, I personally think that it is of great significance for our younger generation to come forward to the ghost domain this time to find that soul talisman. First, it can increase our experience and insight, and give us a severe test, so as to temper us. Second, regarding the matter of sealing the exit, our younger generation has little experience, and staying here will not play much role except for hard work. Therefore, the people left behind here need to be experienced and knowledgeable. As a rational use of limited resources, how we arrange the candidates has become a key issue. Of course, if it is prudent to have an elder lead it, that is also possible. ”

Xuanyu Zhenren couldn't help but nod when he heard this, and appreciated Lu Yun's words very much. Glancing at everyone, Xuanyu Zhenren asked, "Lu Yun, then do you personally think that it is best for us to send how many people to find this time, and how many people will stay behind?" Tell us what you think, and let everyone think about it. ”

Lu Yun thought for a moment and said, "We now have eighteen main personnel here, including ten of the younger generation. If it's just the younger generation, you can divide ten people into two groups, which will have a better chance. If there are elders taking the lead, one or two people can be less, and it is better to divide into two groups as well, for the same reason. It mainly depends on how to arrange the candidates. ”

Hearing this, Xuanyu Zhenren's eyes swept over Yu Wushuang, Haoyun Layman, Liu Xingsoul, and several of his junior disciples, and asked, "What do you think, should we arrange for all the younger generations to go, or will one of us lead the way?" Everyone said something, let's arrange it early. ”

Yu Wushuang said: "I think it is best to have someone to lead, so as not to get into trouble." After all, this ghost realm is the most eerie and terrifying place in the world, and it is extraordinary. Hotwon also held the same opinion. This time, it's up to Liu Xingsoul and Master Jingyue.

Liu Xingsoul's face was slightly cold, he glanced at him, and said softly: "I don't care, you have the final say." Let's ask Master Jingyue if he has any objections, right? ”

Master Jingyue glanced at him and understood that he was dissatisfied with Yi Yuan, and he didn't say anything. Seeing that everyone stopped looking at him, Master Jingyue said: "I don't have anything to say about this matter, and what Lu Yun said is indeed very reasonable." As for the candidates, it's up to you to arrange them. ”

Hearing this, Xuanyu Zhenren's eyes swept over everyone, and finally spoke: "That's fine, there is not much time now, and we don't have time to think about it carefully." Based on our current manpower, the number of people I plan to go to the Ghost Domain is set at eleven people. They were led by Liu Daoyou and my junior brother Ziyang, and were divided into two groups. Yi Yuan and Phoenix Academy have a group of disciples, and Heavenly Sword Academy and Confucian Garden have a group of disciples. As for our Yi Yuan side, Li Hongfei stayed here, and the extra person could pass the news between the two sides in the ghost domain, what do you think? After speaking, he looked at Liu Xingsoul, mainly to see if he was willing.

Liu Xingsoul's face changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. glanced at Yu Wushuang and Haoyun Jushi, and saw that they did not object, so he had to speak: "I have no objection." Everything is subject to the arrangement of Xuanyu's master. ”

Here, Ao Xue gently took Cangyue's hand, and both of them had a faint smile on their faces. All around, Jian Wuchen, Bi Tian, and Lu Yun all looked at the two women, each with different expressions in their eyes. But Yun Feng smiled, his eyes stole a few glances at Xu Jie's beautiful face, and then immediately moved away.

Xuanyu Zhenren said in a deep voice: "Since everyone has no objections, then it is decided like this." Now there are still two hours before dark, all those who go to the ghost realm, hurry up and adjust their state to the best, once you enter the ghost realm, I am afraid there will be no time for you to breathe. Everyone else is also ready, we will go in immediately and start arranging the formation, once the mouth of the ghost domain is opened, it will be too late to prepare again. It was not an easy task to put nine seals in a short period of time. Let's do it now. After speaking, he instructed Lu Yun and the others to breathe, and he took the others in.

Outside the cave, Lu Yun asked Yun Feng, "Do you have any way to find the person you are looking for anytime and anywhere in the ghost domain?" I mean you find them exactly how they move. Do you have any expertise in this area? ”

Lin Yunfeng smiled and said, "You are really amazing, you can guess anything." I can do it, but I have to leave a special mark on them beforehand, so that I can. Do you want me to leave a mark on Bi Tian and them, so that I can find them in the ghost domain when the time comes. You can get in touch with each other. ”

Lu Yun smiled: "It's really smart, I haven't said it yet, you know." That's what I mean, because no one has ever been to the Ghost Domain. We didn't know where the Ghost King City was, so we had to find it ourselves. In that case, time becomes our biggest problem. The reason why I propose to divide into two groups is that I hope that each party can find the Ghost King City in the shortest possible time, so as to retrieve the soul sealing talisman. Once one side finds the Ghost King City, they can immediately notify the other party, and when the time comes, they may have a chance to retrieve that thing by gathering the strength of the two groups. After all, in the ghost domain, there are countless powerful ghosts, and there are many fierce ghosts and ghosts. Those ghost generals, ghost soldiers, ghosts, and ghosts are even more innumerable. Do you think that a few of us will be able to reach the Ghost King City smoothly and retrieve the Soul Sealing Talisman? I'm afraid that the ghosts of the Ghost Domain will hinder us in every way and concentrate their forces against us. ”

When Yun Feng heard this, he screamed strangely: "Then if we go to the Ghost Domain, won't it be dangerous?" We're just a few of us, can we kill all those thousands of ghosts? I'm afraid this is a serious problem. ”

Lu Yun said in a deep voice: "We are not going to play, it is naturally very dangerous." But the problem is that even if we know the danger, we can only rush forward, because there is no turning back. Here, too, for all those left behind. They are also here, facing the attacks of thousands of ghosts. So whether you go or not, it's the same. Only by doing our best can there be hope. Okay, don't talk about this, let's go to Bi Tian quickly, leave a mark on him, and everyone will be in touch when the time comes. ”

Pushing Yun Feng away, Lu Yun's gaze moved to Ao Xue and Cangyue. Looking at the two beautiful women, Lu Yun had a silent sigh in his heart. At this moment, he suddenly realized that in the future, can he let go of everything, leave here calmly, and leave Yi Yuan? Maybe at that time, I already had another life and forgot my determination today.

Ao Xue looked at Lu Yun, pulled Cangyue closer to him, and said softly: "What are you thinking, a person looking at us in a daze, is it something related to us?" ”

Lu Yun glanced at the two girls when he heard this, smiled faintly, and a trace of imperceptible sigh passed away lightly from the bottom of his eyes. Looking at that beautiful face, Lu Yun said with a smile: "This time, the future and fate are uncertain, and no one can say whether they can come back, so I want to say a word, I hope you are safe." ”

Aoxue heard this, and there was a hint of joy in her eyes. But Cangyue just flashed a smile on her face. Brushing a strand of messy hair on her forehead, Cangyue said softly: "That's all, are there no other words of blessing?" In the faint voice, people couldn't hear what she wanted to express. Ao Xue was slightly shocked, glanced at Cangyue, and seemed to understand something, but unfortunately she just raised her head slightly and looked at the sky. The sigh that never came out quietly echoed in my heart.

Lu Yun looked at Cangyue, his beautiful face was indifferent, his bright eyes were like clouds and mist, and he couldn't see a trace of movement. Thinking about her words, is that really all there is? Of course not. But there are some words that cannot be spoken, and can only be hidden in the bottom of my heart forever.

Not far away, Ziyang saw that Lu Yun seemed to be in a predicament, and walked over to change the topic and said, "How is it, are you all ready?" Cangyue, what about you, you have to preserve your strength, otherwise when you come back in the future, your master will come to me to settle accounts. He smiled.

Glancing over there, seeing that Yu Wushuang was talking to Xu Jie, Cangyue understood that the master must be ordering something. Glancing at Ziyang Zhenren, Cangyue said lightly: "Thank you Uncle Ziyang for your concern, I am in good condition now and can set off at any time." ”

Ziyang Zhenren smiled: "That's good, I'll ask them, time is running out, you better prepare." I'm about to set off, and when the time comes, I just want to rest, and I'm afraid I won't have time. After speaking, he walked towards Bi Tian's side.
