This big tree is not very far from the camping site, but the road is very difficult to walk, Zhang Guozhong took the flashlight and walked to the bottom of the tree, just raised the flashlight to find the trunk, suddenly felt a gust of wind behind him, as if something floated over.

"Who!?" Zhang Guozhong took out his dagger and turned back suddenly, and found that there was no one, and a few flashlights not far away were still shining on him as just now.

I remember that the master explained to himself that the so-called "barren mountains have no lights, and pedestrians hold their own lights." Where the lights are lit, don't go out again. "It means that the barren mountains and mountains are not as brightly lit as the towns, and the pedestrians themselves are a lamp, (the so-called three lamps of the human body, one on the left and right shoulders, and one on the top of the head, if the person turns back suddenly, no matter which way he turns back, the lamp on the left and right shoulders will be extinguished accordingly, which will lead to the weakening of the yang energy of the human body, especially after the child, at this time the yin energy between heaven and earth is heavy, if you turn back, you will blow out the lamp on the left or right shoulder, even if it is a child after the lamp is extinguished, it is easier to land) When the lamp is on, You can go unscrupulously, and after the lights go out, don't go again (also has the meaning of "just don't want to go again"). Thinking of this, Zhang Guozhong guessed a rough idea in his heart, this seemingly nonexistent evil ghost seems to be a trick laid by the old Zhao family, and its real purpose is obviously to let people extinguish a lamp on their bodies first.

Climbing to the root of the tree, Zhang Guozhong found that there was a small tree hole, which was illuminated by a flashlight, and he couldn't see anything in the dark.

Zhang Guozhong reached into the tree hole and touched it, feeling a spherical thing erect, and then touching it down, his heart suddenly tightened, under the arc, there were two holes, and then down was a row of serrations, which was obviously a person's skull. Zhang Guozhong grabbed the two holes with two fingers and pulled them out hard, only to hear a snap in the tree hole, and a skull was pulled out and stuck at the mouth of the tree hole.

Turning on the flashlight, Zhang Guozhong took out the compass and found that the compass pointer shook slightly from time to time, as if it was not something powerful. Following the direction pointed by the compass, Zhang Guozhong walked under another tree almost a hundred meters away, and with only two or three daggers, he dug up a human bone under the tree, buried it quite shallowly, and covered it with a layer of floating soil.

"Could it be... Eighteen Hades? Zhang Guozhong used a dagger to roughly depict the nearby terrain on the ground, and found that the space outside the Longtan is relatively narrow, and then go deeper, and then the mountain walls on both sides are getting more and more open, it should be a funnel-shaped terrain, and the "funnel mouth" is facing the stone cliff where he is camping, according to the Maoshan technique, the place where the stone cliff is located is the "tiger's mouth", which is the concentration area of yang energy during the day and yin energy at night.

"Senior brother, everyone, don't enter Longtan tomorrow for the time being!" Zhang Guozhong returned to the campsite, and while talking, he used the powder of the stone to set up a huge pointed head in front of the campsite (this tip is called "Dividing Yin Halberd", if you stay in a place where evil qi or yin qi is concentrated for a long time, people are easily affected by it, and at least they will hallucinate, and at worst they will lose their minds, and the function of "Dividing Yin Halberd" is to divert these yin or evil qi to avoid the impact of yin or evil qi on the human body to the greatest extent), "Let's just stay here and don't move, and don't sleep!" ”

"Why?" Qin Ge was puzzled, "Could it be that the old Zhao family has made some kind of mechanism here?" ”

"There's something weird in there..."Zhang Guozhong said, "I suspect that eighteen nails have been laid, and now the lights of me and Expert Song are broken, if we enter Longtan, once we trigger some kind of mechanism, it will be easy to fall!" ”

"Eighteen Immortals, what is it?" Song Kuan was shocked, when he went to Mount Everest with the Sino-Japanese and Nepalese joint mountaineering team, he also encountered some so-called supernatural phenomena that cannot be explained by science, and the scene of some teammates losing their minds or dying in an instant is still vivid, but he didn't expect that now in the mainland, there are also these things.

"The Eighteen Immortal Ones evolved from the Eighteen Veins of the Pavilion..."Old Liu Tou began to explain the so-called "Eighteen Immortal Mortals" to everyone. In the ancient Zhongge Sect's burial ground formation, there is an unwritten mountain burial formation, called the eighteen veins, is a kind of monkey, orangutan and other spirit animals as the ritual of the spirit array, in the Tang Dynasty that prevailed to open the mountain for the tomb is quite popular, its principle is to use the magic as the main, the organ as the vice, the alien art invades the body of the mausoleum, the mechanism protects the solid coffin, and the "chisel dragon array", the entire eighteen veins, but also divided into eighteen veins, with the tomb owner peace, but the biggest disadvantage of this animal-based burial ground formation is that the validity period is short, more than a hundred years, less than ten years, It will be invalid. However, at that time, not every official could afford the huge cost of arranging the "Chisel Dragon Array", so this low-cost "Eighteen Veins" was still very popular among middle and low-level officials and local nobles of average strength, even if its validity period was short.

However, this kind of formation, like the "chisel dragon array", has no fixed number, and can be used as small as a mouse dog, as large as a tiger and a leopard, and even a living person. Therefore, in the late Tang Dynasty, there were some capable people who forgot their righteousness and simply began to try to replace the spirit beast with a boy, in order to strengthen the power of the formation, and extend the validity period, with the "eighteen veins" of the boy cloth, which is the so-called "eighteen undertones", because this practice violates the way of heaven, so since the date of the birth of the "eighteen mortals", it has been explicitly forbidden to be used by the masters of the pavilion dynasties, and even the "eighteen veins" have been banned together, which is also the reason why this kind of formation is not officially recorded in the "Zhongge Mantra", but driven by interestsThere are still some apostates who build tombs and mounds in the folk with this formation, and privately record this lack of morality formation and pass it on from generation to generation until the end of the Tang Dynasty.

"Senior Liu is really knowledgeable..."Song Kuan was obviously very interested in these unheard of things, "Then, what does Zhang Zhangjiao mean when the lights go out?" When Zhang Guozhong explained the causes and consequences of "extinguishing the lights", the sweat on Song Kuan's face also fell, "According to your words, if you fall into the spell, what will be the consequences?" ”

"Just like Master Li said just now, come to four and go back to one, and after three days, the whole body will rot to death..." Zhang Guozhong had already finished the "Split Yin Halberd" at this moment, and wanted to find Li Ruixue to further ask what the situation of the rotten person was at that time, so as to estimate what kind of drop was used and study combat countermeasures, but when he returned to the campsite, he suddenly found that something was wrong.

"Master Li!? What about Master Li? Zhang Guozhong found that Li Ruixue was not in the camp at the moment, and several people present also felt that something was wrong, so they picked up flashlights and searched around, only to see that they were messy stones and vegetation, shining down the path when a few people came up, and there was no one in the range of the flashlight.

"Weird, I was still here just now! Li Ruixue!! Master Li! Several people shouted several times by pulling their necks, but there was no movement around them.

"Could it be that this kid was scared and ran away by himself?" Old Liu Tou used a flashlight to shine in the ravine.

"It's impossible, there are a lot of people here, no matter how scared you are, it's better than running alone..."Zhang Guozhong said, "I'm looking around, everyone stay here and don't move...!" After that, Zhang Guozhong wanted to look down the path when he came up. Just down more than ten meters, only to hear a piercing "death" in the depths of Longtan, followed by the old Liu Tou's half-shout, "country...", the word "loyalty" behind it was not shouted, and there was no movement, and when Zhang Guozhong turned around, he found that even the flashlight in the camp was gone.

"Who!?" Zhang Guozhong hurriedly climbed back, and at this time, he suddenly felt that his feet and necks were grabbed by a pair of hands, "Ah! At this moment, even Zhang Guozhong shouted out in fright, grabbed the dagger with his right hand, and turned around to see that it was Li Ruixue.

"Shhhh Be quiet! Li Ruixue's voice was like a mouse, lying in the grass pit, and Zhang Guozhong lay down.

"Master Li? Why are you here? Zhang Guozhong looked at Li Ruixue's eyes, not like he was on the way.

"Brother Zhang, don't go over... Lord Yama is up there... Let's run away..."Li Ruixue was about to cry, "Lord Yama has blown the horn to collect people, if you don't run, you will die... Just now I saw Lord Yama's chariot and horse team, and I was scared to death, so let's run..."

"Master Li, you..." Zhang Guozhong turned off the flashlight and slowly leaned next to Li Ruixue, "What carriage and horse team?" What do you see? ”

"You say there... As I spoke, I had a thought... I want to be convenient and convenient, but as a result, just behind the big stone next to it, a large row of hanging... The hanged ghost scared me... One... As soon as I got my head down..."Li Ruixue was so frightened that she couldn't even say a whole sentence, "When... I couldn't speak, I thought I was dead, but now... Not dead yet... Ouch scare... It scared the hell out of me..."

"You stay here... Take this..."Zhang Guozhong handed a living talisman to Li Ruixue, "If this talisman smokes, you call me..."

"Shouting you... If Lord Yama listens... What do you do if you hear that? ”

"Lord Yama wants to find you, but you still need to listen to your own shouting?" Zhang Guozhong took out the dagger and began to climb up cautiously, originally for the safety of the four people above, Zhang Guozhong was not very anxious, because according to the reaction of the compass just now, the things on it should only belong to the category of blinding, and will not pose a threat to the lives of the three of them, then Zhao Kuncheng can't do those two brushes, the living people are planted, how can the things that were clothed a few years ago be put down by the senior brother without saying a word? But later, when he heard Li Ruixue say that he saw what the chariot and horse team of the Lord of Yama saw, Zhang Guozhong also suddenly felt that he was at a loss, and only hated himself for not carefully observing the surrounding mountains at dawn.

When he was climbing up, Zhang Guozhong suddenly heard a faint singing voice in his ears, his voice was sharp and low, like a monk singing scriptures, but if he listened carefully, he didn't know what he was humming, he only felt goosebumps on his back, and the more he climbed up, the more he listened.

Just when Zhang Guozhong stood in place, wanting to listen carefully to what the song was singing and where the voice came from, he suddenly felt that his feet and neck were grabbed again.

"Master Li, didn't I say to let you stay where you are and don't move..."Zhang Guozhong turned his head very impatiently, and his hair stood on end...
