From this point of view, the green-faced dog-headed green monster that Wu Zhiyuan saw just now is very likely to be the monster that specializes in digging graves and devouring corpses as mentioned in the rumors, and the rumors are true. No wonder the guy asked him if he wanted to cremate the coffin, but he stopped talking, it turned out that it was out of good intentions.

Wu Zhiyuan stood in front of the grave and thought for a long time, to get rid of this corpse-devouring monster as soon as possible, he could only turn to the Qingxu Taoist of the Silkworm Immortal Temple, when he thought of Qingxu, Wu Zhiyuan remembered that when he and Zhang Zefang were in the Silkworm Immortal Temple, Qingxu had suspected that the corpse-devouring monster was the legendary ghoul, was it really what he said? Wu Zhiyuan decided to stay in the cemetery tonight to guard the grave for Sun Xiangu, in case the monster went and returned, and went to the silkworm mountain as soon as it was dawn to discuss countermeasures with Qingxu.

After finding a piece of bluestone, Wu Zhiyuan sat down, and suddenly felt a little funny, he spent the night in the cemetery last night, but he didn't expect to live in the cemetery tonight, is he so fated with the dead? When he thought of the dead man, Wu Zhiyuan thought of Yonghe Yizhuang again, the name was very familiar, and he concluded that he had been there or seen it, but he only had a vague impression in his mind, and he couldn't remember it for a while. Since it is Yizhuang, it must also be a place for the dead, and I don't understand why Shigong will live in that kind of place.

The autumn night was pure, Wu Zhiyuan's thoughts wandered, he thought of the Moon Shadow Fuxian again, I don't know if the Dao Gu on the Dao Silkworm Immortal Temple has anything to do with her, thinking, Wu Zhiyuan reached out and took out a red strip of cloth from his underwear pocket, this strip of cloth was found on the old tree in the White Wolf Valley that day, he has not been willing to discard it, for him, this is the only relic left by the Moon Shadow Fuxian to him.

Perhaps, only after asking Qingxu will you know the truth. Last time, because Zhang Zefang was in a hurry to leave, Wu Zhiyuan had no time to inquire about Qingxu, and this time he had to figure out this matter no matter what. It's just that I didn't expect to encounter the corpse devouring monster halfway, it seems that the Silkworm Mountain and his party have become a must-do, and the wolf trouble in Wujia Village can only be postponed for the time being.

Straightening out everything, Wu Zhiyuan unconsciously leaned on the stone and took a nap, he woke up several times halfway, opened his eyes and saw that Sun Xiangu's grave was not abnormal, so he continued to close his eyes and fall asleep, and soon the sky was bright, and the east was red.

Wu Zhiyuan packed up, and there was dry food brought by Sheng Wanxiang in his baggage, but he didn't care about eating at this time, and went straight to the direction of the Silkworm Immortal Temple.

With the impression of walking before, Wu Zhiyuan soon came to the foot of Silkworm Mountain, and when he looked up, there were steps winding up from the halfway up the mountain, straight into the view. He didn't dare to stop, turned his vitality and pedaled up, and arrived at the foot of the mountain gate without a cup of tea.

This silkworm immortal temple is different from Cong Ma Zen Temple, the Taoist monk here is really enlightened, but does not accept the incense outside the world, all the food supply is the Taoist priest on the mountain is self-sufficient, so there are no pilgrims in this Taoist temple.

The Taoist boy who was guarding the mountain gate recognized Wu Zhiyuan, so he took him straight to the door of the Lingzhi Palace, to Wu Zhiyuan's surprise, Qingxu was already standing at the entrance of the hall at this time, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

The two exchanged a few words, and Qingxu led Wu Zhiyuan to a pavilion to sit down, he seemed to ignore the previous suspicions, and did not care about Wu Zhiyuan's previous actions, and his words were extremely hearty, but Wu Zhiyuan felt a little awkward in his heart.

"Daoist, I ...... about the incident in Dong's house last time" Wu Zhiyuan opened his mouth to formally apologize, but was interrupted by Qingxu, he waved his hand and said: "Hey, there is a misunderstanding, little Daoyou don't have to take it to heart." ”

Seeing Wu Zhiyuan's face showing shame, Qingxu changed the topic and asked, "Daoist friends are coming this time, if there is anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

Wu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, not knowing which of the three things to say first, in fact, Qing Yuan's identity he was most concerned about, but when he came up to inquire about the identity of a Dao Aunt, it seemed too reckless, and after thinking about it again, he recounted in detail the encounter with the corpse devouring monster after burying Sun Xiangu.

"So there's no doubt that this monster is the legendary ghoul." Qingxu stood up and muttered thoughtfully, "Legend has it that ghouls have a fierce face, but they are extremely timid, they go out day and night, and feed on the corpses of the dead, and it is said that when the dead bodies are not enough to satisfy their appetite, they will also harm the living, sneak attack in the shadows to kill the living, and then eat the dead corpses. ”

After listening to Qingxu's explanation, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly remembered the strange white shadow he encountered in the graveyard of the dwarf forest in the south of the city when he had not yet entered Qixia County, as well as the boulder that fell from the inexplicable tree, he was puzzled, now that he thought about it, it must also be related to the ghoul, but the ghoul was originally an ugly-looking four-limbed monster, and the white shadow he saw was clearly in the form of a human body.

Wu Zhiyuan also stated this matter again, and at the same time expressed his doubts.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Qingxu's voice changed when he heard this, and he said with a puzzled face, "This is strange, is it...... Could it be that the ghoul already has the ability to transform into a human form? ”

"You mean, ghouls can take on the form of humans?" Wu Zhiyuan asked in disbelief.

"Unlikely." Qingxu shook his head, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Since someone has seen a ghoul appear in the Dong Mansion before, let's go catch this evil ghost tonight!" ”

Wu Zhiyuan nodded in agreement, was silent for a moment, and continued to ask, "I wonder if Daoist Lu knows my master?" ”

Qingxu and Zhang Zefang are the same age, and the two are also close friends, but they are a little different from Gu Shen in terms of age and generation, Wu Zhiyuan secretly thought that Qingxu may not know Gu Shen, but after his words fell, Qingxu laughed loudly: "Gu Zhenren is approachable, as long as he is not in retreat, he often travels around, who will not know him." ”

"I wonder how you're doing?" Qingxu then asked with concern.

"I haven't seen him for a few days, and he asked me to go to Yonghe Yizhuang to find him, but I don't know where Yonghe Yizhuang is, so I came here this time to ask the Taoist chief." Wu Zhiyuan said sincerely.

"Yonghe Yizhuang I know the road, just ten miles west of Haiyang County, you go west along the east and west streets of the county, walk on a small road, and soon arrive." Qingxu said with a smile, "Gu Zhenren doesn't live in Maoshan Immortal Temple, but he prefers to guard Yizhuang for others, and it has been seven or eight years now." ”

"Shigong is the head of the Maoshan faction, he doesn't know Maoshan, how to deal with the affairs of that sect?" Wu Zhiyuan asked curiously.

"It has always been your master Zhang Daochang, although your master has never asked in the past seven or eight years, but Maoshan is also well organized, your master is very capable, it is your blessing to learn Maoshan with him." Qingxu said with a smile.

Wu Zhiyuan nodded when he heard this, and silently recited the position of Yonghe Yizhuang in his heart.

"If there is nothing else, I will arrange a room for you to rest first, and we will leave for the Dong Mansion tonight." After a moment of silence, Qingxu said to Wu Zhiyuan.

"There's one more thing I want to ask the Taoist." Wu Zhiyuan said hurriedly, reaching out and taking out the red cloth strip in his arms.

When Qingxu saw the strip of cloth, his face suddenly showed doubts, frowned, and asked, "What is this strip ......of cloth?"

"Have you ever seen someone wearing this red cloth cloth?" Wu Zhiyuan reminded him.

"This is the fabric on Qingyuan's clothes?" Qingxu looked at the strip of cloth and muttered for a moment, and suddenly realized.

"Dao Chief, have you seen this piece of cloth? You saved Moon Shadow? Wu Zhiyuan was overjoyed when he heard this, grabbed Qingxu's arm with both hands and asked loudly.

"You mean, Qing Yuan's original name was Moon Shadow?" Qingxu seemed to have an understanding, and asked rhetorically, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Wu Zhiyuan's heart was excited, he tried his best to calm his mind, thinking about where to start with this matter, and after a long period of silence, he briefly talked about the drought in Longshan, and then described the experience of the god of grain and himself in Longshan in detail, which naturally included the link where the Moon Shadow Fuxian climbed to the top of Longshan Mountain, and was later knocked off the cliff by the drought.

Qingxu nodded again and again when he heard this, and said in an affirmative tone: "In this way, Qingyuan is your lover Moon Shadow Fuxian, the day of the poor road retreat in Jinan White Horse Mountain was complete, and when he returned, he passed through the White Wolf Valley, and happened to meet the wolves in the valley surrounding a towering ancient tree, I saw that there was a woman in red hanging on the tree, and the fabric of the clothes was the cloth strip you were holding in your hand. ”

Qingxu pointed to the red cloth in Wu Zhiyuan's hand and continued: "When I rescued her, she was unconscious, so I took her back to Guan Yi for treatment, and found that her body was fine, but her head may have been hit by a rock, and she didn't know anything about what happened before, and forgot everything. Qingxu paused for a moment and continued to explain, "In other words, she has the amnesia mentioned in the Shennong Materia Medica. ”

"Amnesia?" Wu Zhiyuan exclaimed, listening to this literal meaning, it was obvious that a person had lost his memories of the past, and he didn't remember his life experience, what happened before, or the people he knew.

"Not bad." Qingxu frowned and nodded, and sighed, "I can see that she is also very distressed, and she may often flash images of the past in her heart, so she has always been weak-willed and has no intention of cultivating." ”

Wu Zhiyuan's mood instantly darkened when he heard this, Moon Shadow Fuxian had lost her memory, no wonder she didn't know herself at all.

"Dao Chief, the junior has a reluctant request." Wu Zhiyuan bowed to Qingxu and pleaded.

"Supreme Taiyi Tianzun." Qingxu hurriedly sang the salute, and said, "Wu Daoyou doesn't need to be polite, if you have something to say, please say it directly." ”

"Qingyuan was originally a lover of the younger generation, the younger generation shared hardships with her, and the love was deep, after she fell off the cliff, the younger generation went to the White Wolf Valley to find her, except for this piece of cloth, the younger generation thought that she had already been buried in the wolf's belly, but I didn't expect her to be rescued by the Taoist, I am really grateful." Saying that, Wu Zhiyuan bowed to Qingxu again, raised his head and continued, "Although she has now lost her memory, the juniors are still unwilling to give up on her, so I want to ask the Dao Chief, can you let the juniors take her away?" With so many days of getting along with her day and night, I believe that she will be able to recover her memory and become a moon shadow fairy. ”

"This ......" Qingxu suddenly hesitated when he heard this.

Wu Zhiyuan looked at Qingxu's reaction, but his heart had already jumped to his throat.
