Chapter Forty-Five: Changes Under the Mountain

It's like a little episode, it appears in a hurry and ends quickly. It didn't make much of a splash in my life.

During this time, the old Taoist priest also began to instruct me in some Taoist techniques.

It just so happened that I was able to learn very easily, so I could feel my progress. Although it is still a certain level gap with the old Taoist, there is no big problem in dealing with some small things.

At this point, I'm a little glad that I've laid such a solid foundation.

As for the matter of spells, the real use is also very skillful, but it is still extremely difficult to do it with one stroke like the old Taoist, but two or three strokes can still be done without leaving the car. It's a little less powerful, but it's good enough for me.

On this day, I was reading a book in the house.

The old Taoist priest walked in and looked at me before continuing: "The cinnabar in the mountain has run out, just so you are fine, go down the mountain and buy some back." ”

"Okay."

I nodded, not paying attention.

After taking the money, he walked down the mountain.

This is a very simple thing for me, but when I went down the mountain, I found that something was not quite right, and I walked through several stores in a row, and the cinnabar happened to be sold out.

This strikes me like something isn't quite right.

You must know that ordinary people don't buy cinnabar this kind of thing, at least not too much, so most of the stores are very well stocked, and I really don't know if I can't buy even a little bit in the whole town like now.

At this moment, I saw a figure hurrying into a store.

It seems to be asking about cinnabar.

After learning that there was none, I was a little disappointed and walked out. I was a little surprised, and hurriedly took a few steps forward and stopped the man.

This man, who was about 20 years old, saw me telling him to take it down, and asked with some vigilance, "You, what do you want to do?" I don't have anything......"

"Don't panic!"

I shook my head, then looked at the person in front of me, and then continued, "Just asking you something!" ”

After hearing this, the man gradually breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at me and said, "I thought it was a big deal, what do you want to inquire about?" Don't worry, this is ten miles away, there is nothing I don't know! ”

I nodded, "What's going on in this town lately?" Why was cinnabar snatched up? ”

"Cut!" There was a hint of disdain in the man's eyes, and he looked me up and down before he continued, "You don't know why you're here to buy this?" ”

I was a little speechless, but I didn't know what to say.

I could only look at the person in front of me quietly, and after a slight pause, I continued: "I know something that is not detailed, so I asked you." I just saw that these people came to buy it, and I was a little curious and came to ask......"

The man sighed, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "Ordinary people, who has nothing to buy this kind of thing?" Isn't this forced, during this time, I don't know what's going on, many homes have begun to be haunted, and several people in the town have been fascinated by ghosts. The whole person is crazy, and many people see their doors being opened for no reason, and then locked up again, so everyone is in danger. In this case, I heard that this cinnabar can drive away evil spirits and avoid evil, so I came to buy some. Looking for a psychological comfort ......"

I was a little shocked when I got here first.

I live in the mountains about this, but I don't know about it.

"Okay, I won't tell you, I have to go to other stores to have a look, the mother-in-law at home said that I must buy it back, otherwise, I won't even be able to sleep well tonight!"

After saying that, he hurried away into the distance.

My brow furrowed slightly, what the hell is going on in this town?

Logically speaking, even if it is a haunted house, it will not be haunted! What's more, the probability of this kind of thing is too low and too low. If there's something wrong with the whole town, it shouldn't be haunted.

Just as I was confused, I saw a man stumbling in front of me.

The whole person seems to be listless.

He hung his head, and there was no light in his eyes, as if his whole eyes had darkened. I hurriedly stepped forward, and with a single step and two fingers, I lifted his head up.

The man's footsteps were fixed there, and my head was lifted listlessly by me.

I could clearly see that the whites of the man's eyes were dark, as if something was flickering in them. My brow furrowed slightly, and then it went all the way to his heavenly spirit.

After a slight pause, he continued: "This is not a lost soul, this is a lost soul!" ”

I found that this person's state can be said to be very strange, the so-called three souls and seven spirits, this person's soul gathers, logically speaking, this situation will not occur at all, but his soul seems to be twisted together by a very strange force.

They were entangled with each other, and I felt unreal for a while.

It's really the first time I've seen anything like this. With a slight frown, he slowly took a step forward, and then checked his Tianchong acupoint again, only to find that Tianchong was tightly closed, as if something deliberately wanted to create this kind of chaos.

But in this way, I am even more puzzled.

Because, if it is really a ghost, there is no way to do any good to the ghost.

Ghosts do things, whether they are good or bad, after all, they have to pay attention to a purpose. Some ghosts and monsters do not hesitate to suck the yang energy of human beings and even the brain marrow in order to cultivate. These are things that happen from time to time.

However, I have never seen a ghost who does not devour souls or kill people, but deliberately creates chaos.

Immediately afterward, I checked several more people in the neighborhood.

It can be said that the situation is exactly the same. This really made me a little curious, and at the same time a little confused. I've seen a lot of weird things, but I've never really come across anything like this.

Since I can't come to a conclusion, there's no need for me to stay here.

Instead, he returned to Yunfeng Mountain.

looked at the old Taoist priest in front of him, and then hurriedly said: "Something happened to the town under the mountain." ”

"Something's wrong?" The old Taoist priest laughed, as if he didn't care: "What's the fuss, what can happen in the town?" Got a lot of water? ”

"I'm not kidding you!"

I had to pause for a moment and tell me everything I had encountered at the bottom of the mountain.

As I kept talking, the old Taoist's brows gradually wrinkled.

As if thinking of something, could it be that after I finished speaking, the old Taoist priest stood up and returned to his room without saying a word.

When I was still surprised, the old Taoist priest had already walked out wearing a Taoist robe.

To be honest, it was really the first time I saw an old Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe. There is a hint of weirdness in this appearance.

"What are you doing here?" I looked at the old Taoist priest in front of me a little strangely, and then asked softly.

The old Taoist priest took a deep breath: "Go down the mountain, find out, if what you said is true, then things will be in trouble, and the things that come this time are not so easy to deal with!" ”

"Huh?" I froze: "You know what that is?" ”

The old Taoist priest's brows furrowed: "It's not very sure now, I can only decide after I get there to explore, help me prepare some things, cinnabar, jujube wood sword, copper coins, chicken blood ......"

The old Taoist priest said more than a dozen things in a row.

I smiled bitterly, looked at the old Taoist priest in front of me and said, "Everything else is easy to find, but I'm afraid that cinnabar is not easy to find, the entire mountain is gone, and the Taoist temple has been used up." Do you think you can replace it with something else? ”

"......" The old Taoist priest glared at me fiercely.

I was a little speechless: "It's useless for you to stare at me, I can't decide this matter." ”

"There is no other place, but the Hua family must have it!" The old Taoist priest said firmly.
