Chapter Seventy-Two: Paper Men Get in the Way

In order to ensure the safety of his beloved son, Zhang Zhutou had to bear such a result, saying that his son would definitely be sent to the mountain to cultivate before he was sixteen years old.

Clouds cover the top of the mountain, and the fog covers the treetops.

Tianyou, Qijie and Nalan Bingruo left Qiyun Village and searched for news of the Seven Holy Daoists and Wang Bo all the way. However, the three of them promised the two old monsters of Qimen Dunjia that in three years, they would definitely go to Qidunzhuang again, and when the time came, they would go to Xudu City to participate in the Heavenly Master Conference, and strive to get the Five Thunder Heavenly Master Order! The two old monsters of Qimen Dunjia also told a few people that they must have a good experience in mortal dust, but Tianyou left the secret cultivation method of Qimen Dunjia in his residence, so that the suffering of the five disadvantages and three deficiencies could be eliminated, and the two old men of Qimen Dunjia could get together.

I hope this reunion will come sooner than later!

At this time, it is dusk, the slanting sun can only shine on the top of the cliff wall that is 100 zhang high, and it is dark under the cliff, although it is the hot summer season, as soon as the four of them get close to the bottom of the cliff, they feel a cold and penetrate. The little black golden light flashed, turned into a real form, and flew onto Nalan Bingruo's shoulder.

There is only one bluestone path into the city, which winds its way down.

Qijie looked up at the cliffs on both sides that looked like knives and axes, and sighed: "This mountain range really doesn't look like it was formed naturally, as if it was cut by a sharp blade, it's so strange. ”

"Look!" Nalan Bingruo pointed ahead and reminded.

Tianyou looked up, and a long black pole stretched out from the cliff in front of him, and a corpse hung under the pole, which seemed to be only a skin left, and although there was no wind in the valley, it turned slightly by itself.

Tianyou looked at it a few more times, but laughed: "Don't be afraid! This is a paper figure, presumably to scare outsiders. ”

Nalan Bingruo took a serious look at this "corpse", it was indeed a papier-mâché dummy, with a white face and black clothes, blurred facial features, and only a mouth painted bright red like blood, this paper figure didn't know how long it had been hanging here, and his hands and feet had already been eroded by the wind and the sun and turned into strips of flocculents.

Nalan Bingruo was worried about the safety of a few people, she pulled the corner of Tianyou's clothes and said, "This place looks so gloomy, why don't we go to the county seat tomorrow at dawn." ”

Qijie said contemptuously: "What are you afraid of? If we cultivators are afraid of these demons and monsters, what kind of Taoism will we cultivate? With that, he walked in with his head held high.

This bluestone path twists and turns, up and down, the three of them walked for a while, saw more paper people along the way, not only there are paper boys and girls, gods and soldiers, there are all kinds of demons and monsters, the old and the new are different, some are hanging on the cliffs, some are placed in the cave niches, some are half buried in the soil, it looks extremely weird.

Nalan Bingruo said in a terrified manner: "Have you noticed it, these paper figures seem to be staring at us." ”

Qijie said with a smile: "That's your own opinion, even if the paper man comes to life, it's just a layer of paper, nothing to be afraid of." ”

Everyone walked for a while, Qijie finally suppressed his smile, he pointed to a floating black-clothed paper figure in front of him, and said with a solemn face: "Isn't this paper figure the one we saw at the beginning?" Why did we go around again? Someone set up a formation here? ”

Tianyou circled around the black-clothed paper man, pondered for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "Yes, it seems that someone has used the paper man to set up an ecstasy formation here, and this technique is also a bit clever." ”

He turned to Qijie and asked, "Do you remember how many paper figures we met along the way?" ”

Qijie scratched his head and said, "This, I didn't pay attention to it." ”

Tianyou snorted: "I know that asking you is also asking in vain, your big head must be thinking about what good wine and meat are in the county, where will you have the heart to count these paper people." He put down the bag on his back, sat down on the spot and rested: "This formation is called the Earth Evil Array, and there are seventy-two paper people and paper beasts along the way, and they are facing seventy-two Earth Evil Arrays. These seventy-two earth-shattering gods are fierce gods, and if people enter the earth-shattering array, if they have the slightest fear or impatience, they will give birth to thousands of barriers and infinite demonic obstacles, so that they will be trapped in the formation and never be able to escape. ”

Qijie exclaimed: "This, so powerful, what should I do?" ”

Tianyou said with a smile: "Although this formation is a bit famous, but when I met us, there is no Dao formation in this world that I can't break." Second brother, you go over first, go under the paper figure and wait. ”

Qijie walked over with a hum and stood under the paper figure.

Tianyou suddenly picked up a stone and hit the black-clothed paper man in the air, and with a pop, the hemp rope hanging from the paper man's neck was cut off, but the strange thing was that the paper man did not fall, but was still hanging in mid-air.

Qijie raised his head and looked at the paper man directly above, the paper man also looked at him with his head down, a gray paper face, and a bright red mouth that was very eye-catching. Qijie was puzzled: "Hey, why doesn't this person fall down, and he can still float in the air." ”

As soon as the words fell, the paper man's originally vague face suddenly twisted into a ball, and transformed into a miserable white and strange human face, and the paper body and flesh face looked really terrifying. Qijie palpitated in his heart, and screamed: "I'll go, what the hell is this, and if you change your face, you will change your face." ”

The paper man's black wide coat turned into sharp claws, like a huge crow swooped down on Qijie, Qijie rolled on the spot, narrowly dodging, but the paper man's claws came again, and slapped a few claws in a row, the speed became faster and faster, and the stone and soil of the straight fan cracked. Qijie shouted: "Big brother, you know that this paper man is going to come back to life, and you deliberately asked me to come and find death, right?" ”

Tianyou teased: "This paper man must be approached by the breath of a yang person, and it will awaken." By the way, this paper man especially likes to eat people's brains, so be careful yourself. ”

"You're a king and a green ball," Qijie scolded.

The black-clothed paper man pounced again, and Qijie no longer had time to quarrel with Tianyou, so he hurriedly stabilized his mind, took out the golden bowl, and shouted: "The magic power is mighty, and the Buddha's light opens the way!" A Buddha light shot out of the golden bowl, and the Buddha light shot directly on the paper man, but there was no reaction, Qijie almost didn't drop his jaw, this is something he has never seen, Buddhism is boundless, how can this happen?

Qijie's body flashed sharply, while dodging and thinking quickly, although this paper man can turn into gong, but there must be a life door on his body, he thought about it, and suddenly understood, but at this time the black-clothed paper man floated over again, it was already close at hand, Qijie saw that there was a cliff behind him, there was no way to hide, he simply reflexively grabbed the paper man's arm with one hand, and wanted to shoot the Buddha's light into the paper man's brain with one hand, but saw that the paper man's arm was soft and rotten like broken cotton, and there was nothing under a pinch, but it was other fluttering and tattered black paper turned into countless sharp claws, covering the sky and the sun, Layer by layer, the fear in Qijie's heart spread rapidly, and he felt that this was more than lucky.

Seeing this, Tianyou couldn't help but shake his head, and immediately pinched a talisman in his hand, and his figure flashed, slamming the talisman into the paper man's head, and then hissing out a lump of black sludge-like things and throwing it on the ground.

The paper figure was gouged out of his head, and the shattered black clothes in the sky were immediately quickly recovered, and he instantly collapsed to the ground, turning into a mess of black and white confetti.

Tianyou hurriedly ran over to help Qijie and said, "Second brother, are you okay?" ”

Qijie was shocked, and gasped: "After all, it's still a little bit worse." ”

Tianyou still frowned, wiped his palm, and said, "Bingruo, go and see if there is a black talisman in that lump of sludge." ”

Nalan Bingruo walked over to take a closer look at the black sludge, which was densely packed with black maggots, which smelled bad, she held her breath and used a stick to remove the sludge and maggots, and sure enough, a palm-sized black rune paper was revealed, with a red spell written on it: "The main culprit of the earth, the fierce birth of all kinds of evils, the deterioration of a thousand obstacles, once you enter it, it is impossible to escape." There is also a crooked yin character underneath.
