Chapter 101: Into the Mountain
"Enter this mountain, naturally it is easy to say, I can help you. But......" he said, glancing me up and down, and finally his gaze fell on the halberd on my back, "can you know what is the reason why you are so desperate to go up the mountain, girl?" β
"I have a friend who was taken and taken to the mountains, and I am now very worried about her safety, and I want to go in and save her."
He frowned a little distrustfully and looked at me. "That's all?"
"That's all!" I looked him in the eye, neither humble nor arrogant. He looked at me for a while, and showed a smile, "I don't know who the girl's friend is?" β
I almost blurted out Gege's name. But thinking about it, the Gege family doesn't seem to be a Xuanmen family, and maybe it will provoke Gege when the time comes, so I paused and said, "You may not know my friend, but I also have a friend named Jingge, you should know ......."
He was slightly stunned, "But the current heir of the Jing family?" β
"Yes! The fifth-generation heir of the Jing family. and her fiancΓ©, Jing Haoran. β
The old man nodded, as if believing me. Glancing in the direction of the gate, I followed his line of sight, and there was a man standing there, about forty or fifty years old, but all of his strength and blood, and his eyes were like torches, staring at this side. It seems that it is very difficult to mess with. The faceless ghost said in his heart, "Great Ancestor, this is this person, his aura is very strong, I want to hide it for a while, you be careful." β
I felt suffocated, and the old man also patted my hand and said, "Girl, first restrain your breath, and let's have a good talk." β
I looked at the man and put the flame away, but I still had a pinch of flame burning in my palm and sticking it to his arm. In this way, it looks like I am just holding his shoulders in a somewhat intimate gesture. The old man looked at me and said nothing. At this time, the man standing at the door seemed to be walking towards us. He knocked on the glass, and the old man motioned for the window to be opened. When this man saw the old man, he seemed to be very familiar with greeting. "Elder Xiao, even your old man was alarmed by this?"
The old man smiled, "While my body is still strong, I will also join in the fun." β
"Then you have to hurry, don't wait until you can't even pick up the soup and meat foam!"
"If you can't pick it up, you don't have to worry about Director Lin, Director Lin still has to worry about it, it's better to have a mess at home!"
Director Lin's face suddenly became gloomy, and he glared at the old man coldly. It's also a shame that the two of them are arguing, and their minds are not on me, and the key is ...... This Xiao Lao didn't confess me, and I was relieved. After the two sneered for a few words, Director Lin was bored, snorted and turned to leave. As soon as he left, Xiao Tianfan next to him was saying, "What kind of dog thing, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, is it really easy to bully when our Xiao family is in decline?" β
After he finished speaking, the old man glared at him, and he didn't dare to say more. The old man patted my hand, "Girl, since you know the people of the Jing family, why are you still worried about not being able to enter this Mount Emei?" β
"It's not a friendly relationship."
Xiao Lao nodded clearly, at this time, the people who got out of the car before came back, they opened the car door, and they were a little stunned when they saw me. Xiao Lao shook his hand, and they didn't ask. As soon as they came up, Xiao Lao said, "Let's go." β
A few people next to him were a little unhappy and were pressed down by him. I pursed my lips and didn't speak. It wasn't until the car entered Mount Emei completely safely that I took the handful of flames back and hugged my hands sincerely. "Thank you, I was a little abrupt before, and I hope Xiao Lao doesn't mind."
"You're welcome, it's just that the girl is getting off now?"
"Well, I won't bother you."
He smiled and shook his hand, "The girl is a master of art and bold, I don't know if the contemptible person has the face, invite the girl to follow me all the way?" I don't think the girl is like this, she shouldn't know much about the situation inside, if you don't dislike it, I can tell you all the news I have. β
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and I looked at him vigilantly, "What do you want me to do for you?" β
"The girl will also know this news when she goes up the mountain. I'm just selling a favor to the girl, and I hope that if something happens in the future, the girl will meet and can help the contemptible. Seeing my wary face, he hurriedly added, "I trust my instincts, I intuitively feel that girls are not ordinary people, so girls can be contemptible people to slap you." β
He spoke so bluntly that I didn't have anything to refute. glanced at the scene outside the window and found that this time I came to Emei, which was completely different from the last time! Last time, we could see green land everywhere, but this time, the surrounding forests can only give people an eerie and terrifying feeling, which is similar to the Qinling Ghost Mountain we went to this time!
Seemingly...... There's a lot going on.
And these things must be unknown to Zhuowa. I thought about it for a moment and agreed. He smiled even more, "That contemptible person will introduce himself first, I am the previous head of the Xiao family, Xiao Tong." Our Xiao family is one of the seven major Xuanmen families, so let's not show this for the time being. Let's talk about what happened in Emei......"
"A few days ago, there was a change in the heavens and the earth in Emei, and it was rumored that an evil demon was suppressed here. And the birth of this demon also brought a lot of treasures. Some people say that if you can get one or two magic weapons in this demon's body, you can benefit the descendants of the family a lot. However, this evil demon has great ability, which has attracted the attention of the government (river crab) government department, and they invited the seven of us to come forward and let us cooperate to suppress this evil spirit. β
I was slightly surprised to say this......
In this Emei Mountain, now not only the corpse keepers will be mixed in, but also Jingge and the other six Xuanmen families will be in it? When I think of it, I can't help but have a little headache, I don't know much about their Xuanmen lineage, and now I'm still involved......
And, the point is, it doesn't seem to have much to do with me!
I was a little annoyed and tightened my hands. "And the result? Has the demon been suppressed? β
"Not yet! We are here to discuss countermeasures, and the place where the demon is located is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Nowadays, there are several waves of people who don't know the details have gone in, but when they come out, they are entered by demons, disturbing their minds, and their bodies are on the spot. β
His words are not different from what Zhuo Wa said.
"So, now, we don't dare to go in easily until we find out what's going on inside. Girl, look at the surrounding forests, they have been harmed by the overflowing breath of evil demons, and now they have become a plague, and anyone who has poor cultivation will be mentally disturbed when they enter it. β
I glanced at the surrounding woods, a little puzzled, was it really as exaggerated as he said? "Are you sure that this demon is really inside?"
He looked at me, "Of course! Many people were guarding here, and they did not see the evil spirit come out. β
What about the Flame King's body? Didn't he steal it?
If it wasn't for him stealing it...... Will the corpse keeper chase after this? I'm a little bored, and some of what Xiao Tong said later didn't have much effect, so I ignored it. The car drove all the way to the direction of the Emeishan parking lot, and then you had to walk.
Not to mention, all of a sudden, the air around here does seem to be polluted, and it doesn't smell good!
Can...... Strangely, when I smell the air, I feel inexplicably warm in my limbs, like ...... Nourished the same!
As soon as Xiao Tong and them got out of the car, they took out a mask and put it on their heads. He also gave one to me, I took it casually, and just wanted to say thank you, when I suddenly saw Wang Xiuxiu's car parked next to it, and someone came back to the car, moved a box inside, and walked into the forest next to it.
I was overjoyed, and immediately said goodbye to Xiao Tong and quietly followed.
Entering the woods, the Faceless Ghost ran out of it and took a breath. "Great Ancestor, what should we do now?"
"Just follow quietly behind, just rescue Gege and catch the corpse keeper, and we won't get involved in other things."
"Hmm!" He carried me on his back and followed me all the way. The man walked very cautiously, and would look back from time to time, and after walking for more than half an hour, I saw Wang Xiuxiu's trace. They were in the shadow of a small earthen bag, and there were many things placed beside them, like sacrifices, with incense and candles, and the mage sat in the middle of them.
