Behind the ruined palace was not a garden, but a mass grave. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info waist-deep weeds between the dense deserted graves, neither white sails nor tombstones, but even so it is still not the worst, because there are more unburied wooden coffins and I don't know whether they are half filled or half dug up. As for the dry bones scattered indiscriminately, it is even more everywhere, and it is long impossible to tell which bones belong to whom.

"What the hell is this!" someone said after a long pause.

Guan Qingye said to the side, "That's right, this is really a ghost place." He almost finished the last three words, and everyone understood the meaning of his words.

Ghosts, this existence that only existed in films, television, literary works and legends for Tianyou in the previous life, but it is a real thing in this world, at least everyone in the Shenzhou Continent is sure that they are real.

Tianyou's perception of the existence of ghosts is very contradictory, on the one hand, the worldview before the time travel constantly denies the existence of ghosts, and on the other hand, it is sixteen years of ears and eyes that continue to prove the real existence of ghosts. However, in terms of personality, Tianyou prefers to believe that ghosts are real, because curiosity hunting is also one of his main hobbies.

The 28 people at the scene, except for God You, everyone firmly believed that ghosts were real, just as everyone on Earth was convinced that great white sharks existed, although nine out of nine of them had not seen them with their own eyes.

Seeing so many desolate graves and dry bones, coupled with the meaning of the words of the green leaves, everyone felt a shiver all over their bodies in broad daylight, and even the scorching sun above their heads seemed to suddenly lose its temperature.

"I, I, I...... Are we really going to wait here until it's ugly?" one of the cadets asked the others, shuddering.

No one answered his question, but the answer was clear.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that we've shown you here, our mission is complete. I wish you all a smooth pass of the assessment. After the two handymen quickly finished speaking, they opened the scroll of returning to the city without waiting for everyone's reaction, and then disappeared together beside everyone. Someone wanted to ask something, but unfortunately the two ran too fast and didn't have time to stop Ben.

When everyone was a little flustered and at a loss, Guan Qingye suddenly said loudly: "Don't panic, everyone, stay calm, and listen to me." The students who felt that the six gods had no master immediately instinctively looked over when they heard someone speak, and the crowd quieted down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that everyone has come from various countries or neutral zones to join the young talents under the Zixiao Palace, but we are not in competition. Zixiao Palace didn't care if there were 26 disciples or none of them this year, so there was no competition between us. In order to pass the assessment, I propose that everyone unite and deal with the current difficulties together. ”

What Guan Qingye said was originally the truth, of course, everyone had nothing to argue with, and the intention of cooperation after that was naturally logical.

Next, Guan Qingye first pulled Tianyou out and recommended his jungle survival experience to everyone, and then used this to ask others if they had any useful specialties, and it turned out that he really found a very useful person.

This person's surname is Qian, his single name is a clear character, he looks beautiful, he is dressed as a scholar, and he still has a feeling of resignation when he speaks, and he knows that his family background is not good when he looks at his clothes. However, this person's ability is absolutely appropriate at this time, because he can actually exorcise ghosts.

"Have you really seen a ghost?" Tianyou didn't care about whether he would exorcise ghosts, he was just curious if there were really ghosts.

Qian Ming looked a little timid because Tianyou suddenly leaned up, and took half a step back before nodding and admitting that he had indeed seen it. Tianyou immediately came to the ground and wanted to ask questions, but was stopped by the green leaves.

"Don't scare people, let me ask about the situation first. ”

Compared with Tianyou's initiative, it is easier to communicate with the other party with the slow and methodical nature of a humble gentleman like Guan Qingye. In a few words, I asked about the general situation.

Qian Ming is really good at catching ghosts, and not only theoretical knowledge, but also many practices. In order to help his family, he began to work in the county at a very young age, so his experience is more than theoretical knowledge. However, he himself said that his exorcism skills were all learned from the notes left by his father, considering that his father's level is unknown, and the notes are not formal textbooks, and there is no one to guide him, so he is actually a half-ass. Fortunately, he really caught the ghost, and relying on actual verification, he also summed up some of his own methods.

Now that there is a proper fierce ghost carnival around this hall, Qian Ming's ability is even more important than Tianyou, so everyone is around Qian Ming to consult what to do at night. However, the final answer can be said to be not very good, because Qian Ming himself doesn't know what to do.

He usually exorcises ghosts one at a time, and he has never dealt with such a battle. Besides, usually you always have to bring a lot of props to exorcise ghosts, but now that they are empty-handed, he, a half-ghost exorcism master, is powerless.

"Let's talk about what you usually use, and let's see if we can help you find it. At the very least, the altar should be able to help you get it up. When everyone fell into a trough because of Qian Ming's words, Tianyou stood up. He is a man of action, believing that there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and if he can't figure it out, he will do it first, and he will never drill the horns.

Qian Ming looked at Tianyou suspiciously and asked, "Brother Tai, what is the purpose of the altar?"

Tianyou was stunned when asked: "Don't you usually use the altar to exorcise ghosts?"

Qian Ming was also a half-ass, and thought that other Taoist priests needed an altar to exorcise ghosts, so he hurriedly asked: "Brother Tai has seen other Taoist priests exorcise ghosts? Dare to ask what this altar looks like? What is it used for? My methods are all from my father's notes, the content is not complete, and there are many omissions. If you know, please let me know. ”

When he said this, God blessed him couldn't be sure. He doesn't know how to exorcise ghosts, as for altars or anything...... Anyway, that's how it is played on TV, as for whether the Taoist priests in this Shenzhou continent need the altar or not, anyway, Tianyou doesn't know.

"Huh...... I don't know very well, I think I've heard someone say that I wanted to ask you, but since you can't, then I can't help it. After Tianyou explained, he quickly changed the topic and asked, "What do you usually use?" Let's talk about it, maybe you can find some?"

Qian Ming thought about it and said that it didn't matter, so he said, "First of all, you need a Taoist robe." ”

"Don't think about it. What else?"

"And the peachwood sword, the chicken blood ......"

"Wait. Tianyou suddenly said to Dashan, "Come and help." ”

Although Dashan didn't mind helping, he began to hesitate for a while when he saw Tianyou actually jump out of the main hall and into the tomb. He is a native of the Shenzhou Continent, and he is the lowest level of the people, and he is the most in awe of the ghosts and gods, even in broad daylight, he is still a little afraid to let him walk into this large pile of mass graves.

Seeing that the mountain was still hesitant and didn't dare to go down, a sturdy young man next to him who was half a head taller than the mountain immediately jumped down. "I'm here to help you, what do you want me to do?"

Seeing this person, Tianyou smiled first, and then crossed his hands and made a lifting motion. "You just stand there, and I'll jump back and step on your hand when I rush over, and you can just throw it up with all your strength as hard as I did. ”

"It's simple. ”

The tall boy immediately put on a posture, and after Tianyou retreated a distance, he reminded him to start sprinting immediately, and when he rushed a few steps in front of the opponent, he suddenly jumped up and stepped on the opponent's crossed palms accurately. The young man suddenly lifted upwards as he said before, and Tianyou instantly felt a huge force coming from under his feet. Originally, he just wanted to borrow a little strength, but he didn't expect the other party's strength to be so great, plus he jumped with his own strength, and the whole person flew up like a cannonball in an instant.

However, as soon as we flew together, I realized that it was not good, not because I didn't use enough force, but because I was too strong.

"Damn!" Tianyou saw that he had instantly surpassed the roof of the main hall, but the upward trend was still very strong, and he flew nearly a foot high before he began to fall, but there was not a roof tile but a big hole below. Tianyou hurriedly waved it, and finally moved a little distance, and smashed it on the edge of the big hole with a bang, and smashed the few remaining tiles down a large piece, but fortunately, he finally grabbed a horizontal support and did not fall down with the fragments.

The people below watched Tianyou get up from the roof and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Tianyou waved his hand downward, and then began to look around. Soon he seemed to have discovered something, and with some excitement he turned around and stood on the edge of the hole in the roof and rushed down and shouted, "I said I could help you find something." There's a peach tree in the forest over there, let's go get some branches and come back and make a few more peachwood swords, it's better than being unarmed, right?"

Hearing Tianyou's words, everyone below was excited. Everyone has heard that the peach wood sword can slash ghosts, and the thought of having a peach wood sword at night immediately feels a lot safer.

Regardless of the excitement of others, Qian Ming frowned and said: "But Brother Tianyou, we have no axe and no wooden saw, how can we cut down a big tree to make a wooden sword? ”

"You don't care about this, I have a way. Tianyou directly turned over and got down from the hole, and with one claw in both hands, the beam rolled over in the air and landed firmly among the people who ran into the hall because they were worried that he would fall. Ignoring the surprised gazes of others, Tianyou asked directly: "Can chicken blood be exchanged? Pheasants? Rabbits or other animals?"

Qian Ming was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Father's notes say that it is better to have a stronger big, and I haven't used anything else." However, I have summarized it myself, and the rooster blood should be replaceable, as long as the yang energy is sufficient. ”

Tianyou didn't know which animal had enough yang energy and which one was insufficient, but he knew that there was one animal that had enough yang energy.

"How much blood do you need?"

"You don't need a lot, just a small bowl. ”

After hearing this, Tianyou immediately shouted to Dashan: "You didn't dare to go out just now, you should help this time, right?"

Dashan argued in embarrassment: "I'm just a little slower, who said I'm scared?"

"Okay, you're a man, it's time for you to show your prowess. ”

"What are you going to do?" Looking at Tianyou's ill-intentioned eyes, Dashan instinctively wanted to retreat.

Tianyou smiled and said, "Don't do anything, I'm looking for you to ask for blood." ”

I heard that many people didn't react to the blood, but Qian Ming was immediately pleasantly surprised: "That's right! The body of the boy is the state of the most yang energy, this brother is burly, and at first glance, the yang energy is extremely vigorous, if a little blood is collected, the effect will definitely be better than that chicken blood." ”

"Look, Qian Ming said the same thing. For everyone's sake, why don't you donate some blood?"

"I ...... I ......"

"Don't worry, you heard it too, just a small bowl is all it takes. You're such a big person, a small bowl of blood doesn't get in the way. ”

"Why don't you let me come?" the tall boy who had helped before recommended himself again.

Tianyou saw that Dashan was obviously a little scared, and simply turned to the young man here and asked, "What name do you want?"

"Huge sea. ”

"Okay, I'll leave the blood donation to you. But don't do it now, it's too early for the blood to clot. As he spoke, he pulled the huge sea and shouted to the people around him: "The sea is donating blood for everyone, no matter what the situation is at night, if the sea is in danger, everyone should take care of it." There's always a reward for your efforts, right?"

Everyone agreed in unison, praising the huge sea for being good, making the mountains want to volunteer again, but they want to release a bowl of blood, and they are a little scared in their hearts, and they still can't say it after struggling for a long time.

"The peachwood sword is here, and there is a substitute for chicken blood, what else do you need?"

"Yellow paper, cinnabar. ”

"Is it okay to replace yellow paper with cloth?"

"Yes, I've tried, but the effect will drop a little. ”

"Some is better than nothing. There are a lot of curtains here, and they can be used when they are removed. But I don't know if I can find that cinnabar. Maybe there's something in the woods, maybe not, and one of them will go and see it. You say something else. ”

"Black dog blood. ”

"Can it be replaced?"

"It should work, but I don't know what blood to replace. It's not just a matter of yang. ”

"Anything else?"

"Clear water. ”

One of the students immediately said: "There is a well on the side of the main hall, so I don't know if it is a dry well." ”

"Write it down first, and what else?" asked Tianyou again.

"Cow tears, if you don't have it, you can have yuzu leaves. Probably knowing that these two couldn't find it, Qian Ming took the initiative to add: "Actually, it's mainly something that is negative." As long as it has a strong yin qi, rubbing it over the eyes will leave some yin qi on the eyes, so that you can directly see the ghost. Without that, you can only see it when the demons want you to see it. We will be very passive. ”

Tianyou looked left and right, and then suddenly looked at the back of the hall, and everyone looked at him instantly, and then they were all stunned.

"Do you think you're trying to ......?" asked Dashan shuddered.

Tianyou smiled and admitted, "That's right. We replace it with the humus underneath the coffin. ”

Everyone was cold, and Qian Ming actually thought about it seriously and said, "I haven't tried it, but maybe it's feasible." ”

"There are some auxiliary magic weapons, and it is impossible to find them here. Qian Ming explained seriously: "The peach wood sword is a weapon, and after opening it with chicken blood, you can directly kill ghosts, yellow paper and cinnabar also need chicken blood, and then you can draw talismans, which is very powerful, and I don't use it very often." Clear water is used to wake up the mind, and if you are confused by ghosts, you can quickly wake up the other party by spraying it with clear water. Cow tears and grapefruit leaves are used to see ghosts. Black Dog Blood is used for direct attacks. It is very lethal to ghosts. ”

"Let's do it first, we divide into groups, and each group is responsible for one thing. If you have some free time, you will look around, and the handyman before said that there are magic weapons hidden nearby, maybe you can find one or two. ”

Next, everyone was divided into groups according to their own voluntariness, and then began to act separately, Tianyou was mainly responsible for getting peach trees, and ordinary people couldn't do this. However, he did not do it himself, but took the mountain with the huge sea and a few others to the woodland with peach trees.

God's method is actually quite simple. First of all, I violently dismantled a few coffins with stones and got the coffin nails, which were made of iron and had a sharp edge. These coffins were used to nail the bark of trees in the woods, and then some of the withered vines found by mixing the bark were kneaded into hemp rope.

With hemp rope, it's easy. First, use the coffin nail to nail it along the bottom of the trunk of the peach tree and then pull it out, and there is a hemp rope tied to the coffin nail, as long as you don't smash it too deeply, you can easily pull it out. Once the bottom of the trunk is almost broken, you can tie hemp rope directly to the treetops and pull it down with brute force.

After smashing a tree, you can directly hit the trunk with a stone, destroying the outer area, and creating a rough tree center structure like a dog gnawing. Collect the shards that fall down and make a fire, then put the small heart of the tree into it and burn it. After burning for a while, take it out and beat it with a stone, mainly using the brittle principle of burnt wood to process the wood, and finally make it feel like a sword embryo. Put the sword embryo directly into the fire and burn it, the flame will naturally flatten so that the surface protrusion will be lost first, and then you can get a rough straight sword embryo by scraping off the carbonized outer layer along the burned wooden stick with a stone knife temporarily processed by Tianyou.

The peachwood sword doesn't need to be sharp, so having a rough shape is just fine. It's easy to make a sword shape that isn't too regular, and it's a little ugly, but Qian Ming said that it can basically be used.

The method was taught to the others to make a few more peachwood swords, and then Tianyou himself went around the forest, and after a while, he kicked a pheasant back, and there was an extra simple bow and arrow made of wooden sticks and vines in his hand, and there were actually a few wooden arrows with sharpened tips around him that were tied to his waist with a hemp rope.

"Just set fire and dispose of the chickens. "Tianyou directly handed over the pheasant to Dashan, he is a hunter, this will still be. "Oh yes, I saw a porcelain bowl in the main hall, go and get a bowl of chicken blood first, maybe it can be used." No, let's think about human blood. ”

Dashan responded to deal with it, and as soon as Tianyou turned around, he entered the forest again, and when he came out again, everyone didn't know what to say, because this guy was actually carrying an unconscious black wolf.

"Now, the black dog can't find it, can the black wolf?"

Qian Ming looked at Tianyou with a dull gaze, and mechanically took over the black wolf, but the black wolf suddenly woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he wanted to bite, thanks to Tianyou's quick reaction, he went up and knocked out again with a stick. "Be careful, I didn't kill you, I'm afraid you need something fresh. ”

Until Tianyou entered the woods for the third time, the gang didn't react to what was going on, and looking at the black wolf on the ground was like a dream.

After a long time, he sighed and said to himself: "Sister Ruyu told me before that Tianyou is in the mountains like in her own vegetable field, I still don't believe it, but now it seems that Sister Ruyu is still too modest!"

When he came back from the woodland for the third time, Tianyou frightened everyone again, because he not only came back with a wild boar weighing more than 500 pounds, but also dragged a bunch of strange-shaped weapons behind him. These weapons come in a variety of forms, but all have a stone port and a long handle. Some resemble stone axes, some resemble stone hammers, and two stone spears. Although the exterior is rough, the sturdiness is not bad, at least it is a weapon in the hand.

After throwing the huge boar on the ground, everyone realized that the boar had been disposed of, the internal organs had been removed, and the pork had been cleaned.

"Big mountain. As soon as Tianyou greeted Dashan, he immediately ran over, dragging the wild boar and was about to roast, but he didn't expect Tianyou to stop him and hand over a leaf package.

Dashan took the package suspiciously, but when he opened it, he found that it was a bag of red stones. Tianyou saw it and quickly took it back. "Oh mistake, this one is for you. Stuffing another leaf bag to Dashan, Tianyou handed over the bag of red stones he got back to Qian Ming. "Now, you want cinnabar. ”

Qian Ming couldn't talk with cinnabar. "You...... Where did you find that?"

"Where else could it be, of course in the woods. As soon as Tianyou finished speaking, he heard the mountain behind him exclaim: "Salt?

"Don't make a fuss, there's so much stuff in the woods, it's up to you to find it. After Tianyou finished speaking, he said to the others: "Everyone come here, and everyone takes a weapon." ”

Everyone gathered one after another, and most of them went to choose weapons, but one person held a peachwood sword with a strange ugly shape and said: "Just have a peachwood sword to fight ghosts, the stone axe is too heavy, not to mention that it is useless and wastes physical strength." ”

The others were stunned when they heard it, and they thought about it too. It's a ghost to deal with at night, what are you doing with such a heavy stone hammer and stone axe?

Tianyou didn't speak, but just untied a rattan ball from his waist, and after opening it, an exclamation immediately sounded around him.

"This ...... What kind of monster is this?" asked a student who clearly belonged to the children of the powerful, covering his nose.

Inside the ball was a wooden stick in the center, and in the center of the stick was the head of a small unknown creature. The skull was the size of a child's fist, with a pointed mouth, one eye was red, and the other had only a hole left. There was no torso behind the skull, only a small piece of rotten flesh, and there were large areas of decay marks on the skull, which looked like a rotting corpse that had been left for more than ten days. However, the most bizarre thing is that the highly corrupted head is still trying to open and close the pointed mouth that is exposed from the mandible, as if it wants to bite something.

"It's not a monster, it's ...... "After all, not all of them are the children of the powerful, some of them from peasant families certainly recognize mice, but the rat's head has been seriously out of shape, and even the ears are missing, otherwise they must have recognized it at first sight."

Tianyou grabbed the ends of the rattan ball with both hands, and while observing it for everyone, he said, "This used to be a mouse, but I think it's more appropriate to call it a zombie now." ”

The legend of zombies is also one of the most widely circulated rumors in the Shenzhou Continent, but this thing doesn't seem to be as common as ghosts, Tianyou has heard of it, but it is not nearby. Others have similar ideas, everyone knows that there are zombies, but they rarely actually see them.

The huge sea reacted quickly, looked at the stone hammer he had just picked in his hand and asked, "You prepared these for us to fight zombies?"

Tianyou looked at the back of the hall again, and then everyone understood without explanation. Since there are even zombie rats, it seems to be a matter of course that there are zombies hidden in the graveyard behind.

"This is a ghost and a zombie, can we survive until the ugly time tonight?"

"I don't know. "God bless the truth. "I really can't hold it, don't I still have a scroll back to the city? what's the matter, it's not enough to take your life, right?"

Everyone nodded, but they all looked a little lost, and they didn't even ask how Tianyou got these incredible things.

In fact, Tianyou not only found cinnabar and saline land in the forest, but even found an open-pit iron mine, but in just one night, he could not conjure up a metal weapon. But give him a month or two, and he will have a way to go straight into the Iron Age.

Because of the worry about the night, everyone reluctantly ate some of the roasted wild boars after that, and only Tianyou and Da Hai ate the most. The two big stomachs were holding a pork leg and gnawing with relish, as if they were not worried about the crisis at night.

No matter how worried everyone was, time was still moving on. After dinner, it was completely dark. Tianyou did not let everyone extinguish the fire, but arranged a circle of fires around the main hall, and the cemetery was filled with firewood as much as possible. Tianyou's idea is that if there are really zombies in the graveyard, then he will burn them all. Hell, he can't help it, zombies are entities, he doesn't believe in what danger there is if they are burned out.

Originally, according to the plan, everyone should take turns to rest and replenish their energy, but because of fear, no one could sleep with Ben. Oh no, not everyone can't sleep, at least God Bless and the huge sea are asleep. The two of them went to sleep after eating, anyway, there were so many people on guard, they didn't worry about any danger at all.

The temperature plummeted after dark, and the cold wind was not a problem for everyone to be a prospective monk. At first, everyone had been worried about ghosts and zombies suddenly jumping out, and they were so nervous that they didn't dare to sleep, but an afternoon of intense work was always a burden. Especially those students who didn't reach the top of the mountain with Tianyou, they all took the physical strength supplement pill issued by Zixiao Palace. Although the pills of Zixiao Palace were not as big as the side effects of the Qingye irrigation, these people had actually begun to have side effects, which were manifested by feeling tired all over the body and wanting to sleep.

Under the dual effect of drug side effects and physical exertion, these people finally couldn't bear the sleepiness and fell asleep unconsciously. Of course, not everyone is asleep, at least the green leaves are awake.

Tianyou knew that this would be the case, and specifically told him that these people must have been trembling and unable to sleep at first, and then couldn't wake up, so in order to prevent everyone from falling asleep, he specially told Guan Qingye not to be too tired in the afternoon, and to be responsible for the first shift at night.

Last night, Guan Qingye got enough sleep like Tianyou, and he also soaked in the Ascending Immortal Pool for more than half an hour, and today he is naturally refreshed, as long as he doesn't want to sleep, he won't fall asleep accidentally.

Looking at the snoring crowd around him, Guan Qingye was bored fiddling with the fire in front of him, occasionally looking up to look around. This palace is also broken, at least the line of sight is very good, it is transparent on all sides, and he can see the situation in all directions as long as he turns his head.

Until the end of the hour (19:00~21:00), there is still a deathly silence around, and you can't hear the roar of beasts and insects, except for the faint sound of the wind, you can only hear everyone's snoring and your own heartbeat.

However, as soon as the time passed, the time had just stepped into the sea, and the shrub green leaves, who were looking around again in boredom, suddenly jumped up from their position. A faint white mist floated around him at some point, and a cold blue light of unknown origin began to light up around the entire hall. Under the dim blue light and shadow, the blank space between the original hall and the woods slowly emerged one after another, and around the house between the illusory and the real, a large number of shadowy figures slowly appeared.

A market town of a small scale appeared in front of Guan Qingye's eyes out of thin air, and he couldn't make a sound as if someone had choked his throat. As much as he struggled to get his body moving again, all efforts were in vain. His body stiffened as if it wasn't his, his throat was completely locked, and what made him even more anxious was that he could hear some chaotic sounds coming from the direction of the cemetery behind the hall, but his neck was so stiff that he couldn't even turn his head.

"Hmm...... Hmm...... "Desperately trying to make this sound from his mouth, but the volume was so small that he couldn't really hear it himself. "It's over, it's all over!"

Just when Guan Qingye's anxious eyes were about to burst out, he was suddenly slapped heavily on the shoulder, which scared him to jump three feet high, and the control of his body was instantly restored, but after a flicker of his eyes, he found that he was not standing on the ground, but lying down, Tianyou was squatting beside him, and one hand was shaking his shoulder.

"Aoba, Aoba, when did you fall asleep?"

Tianyou's voice came into his ears, and Guan Qingye's first reaction was that he felt that he had just had a nightmare, but when he sat up, he was surprised to find that the surrounding villages and towns were impressive, exactly the same as the ones he had seen before.

"I'm ......!"

"Shhhh Tianyou stretched out his hand and made a silent gesture, then lowered his voice and whispered, "Be quiet, we are surrounded." But there is something strange about these ghosts, they don't seem to be able to see us. (To be continued.) )
