June 24, night rain, Dingzhou.

Wang Shen and his entourage stayed in a soul-attracting pavilion in a county outside Dingzhou City, and since the day of departure, the road of sending souls and protecting the lamp has gone through a full twenty-four nights. Along the way, Wang Shen followed the team every day and night, set off every day, and rushed to the soul pavilions on the way to rest the next day, even if it was just a night rush, but in order not to disturb the living, he basically walked on the trail. Although the road is small, the soul is sent every year, so there has been nothing wrong along the way.

However, five days ago, everyone entered the Jiangling Dao boundary, and it took them so many days to walk from Chenzhou to Dingzhou, just because it was rainy in Jiangling. The light rain did not hinder the journey, but the pouring rain still affected everyone's itinerary, Wang Shen also learned that the talismans on the soul-attracting lamp were all from the Heavenly Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain, these talismans can not only calm the soul and calm the soul, but also can avoid water, fire, wind and rain, under the control of the Taoist formula, the soul-attracting lamp can be suspended in the air, anyway, all kinds of wonderful uses made Wang Shen full of curiosity.

Qingyang Palace is good at formation, and Heavenly Master Mansion is good at talismans.

It's just the most superficial, the magic talisman that the beginner little Taoist priest will draw makes Wang Shen surprised, although the talisman under his feet can only be used for three days, but once pasted, Wang Shen saved at least fifty percent of his vitality when he was in a hurry, which greatly improved everyone's speed of hurrying.

So, the young Taoist named Zhang Jinyi in the soul-sending team has now become a friend who has nothing to say to Wang Shen, this little Taoist priest is not very old, but he knows a lot of things, this soul-sending lamp trip is also at night, and everyone rests during the day, so there is a lot of time to talk and chat, so for more than half a month, Wang Shen almost inquired about the affairs of the Heavenly Master's Mansion in Longhu Mountain from the mouth of this little Taoist.

What Longhu Mountain is the only Taoist mountain that can compete with the Taoist ancestor Ting Maoshan today, and there is a Taoist named Zhang Yanhu on Longhu Mountain who was given a yellow purple crane robe, and entered the palace to take charge of the position of Qin Tianjian coveted by various factions, becoming the youngest Yunyun of Qin Tianjian in all dynasties......

Wang Shen also listened patiently to these things, in order to make this little Taoist happy, he also echoed and inquired to show his admiration and yearning, and this little Taoist priest is also a person whose eyes are above the top, not to mention Qingcheng Mountain, even the entire Xishu Daomen He didn't put it in his eyes, and he had an attitude of teaching and solving doubts about Wang Shen's pheasant and dog-like background.

Of course, Wang Shen also learned from his mouth about the talisman of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the talisman of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is passed down from ancient times, after being drawn, the effect of the talisman can be activated by pouring the vitality and the Taoist recipe to urge the aura of heaven and earth for his own use, different talismans have different effects, and the drawing methods and difficulty are also different, and even the materials used to draw the talisman are different, it is said that some powerful talismans can only be made with special materials.

As for the origin of the peculiar symbols on this talisman and what specific statements there are, this little Taoist priest doesn't know, but he doesn't admit that he doesn't know, but he just mysteriously said "Heavenly secrets must not be revealed" to perfunctory. But Wang Shen could see that this little Taoist priest really didn't know the origin and essence of these talismans, only that they were passed down from generation to generation in the door, and he could succeed by painting gourds in the same way.

The reason why Wang Shen was curious about the origin of the symbols on the talisman was because he looked a little familiar, but he didn't tell the little Taoist priest about this, mainly for fear of causing the other party to be unhappy.

Why?

Because Wang Shen carefully observed the symbols on the Shenxing Talisman and found that this feeling of déjà vu was not groundless, but that he really had an impression, and finally when he remembered where he had seen it, even he was startled.

Demon beasts.

He had seen it on a demon beast, and he thought about it for a long time before he remembered that when he was in the Hengduan Mountain Range, when he followed the Qiang girl Lily of the Valley into the mysterious Beast Fighting Valley, he had seen some similar patterns from a certain demon beast. There are special totem marks on the body of the demon beast, and the colors and textures of the marks on the body of different demon beasts are completely different, fortunately, Wang Shen took a second look at the mark on the demon beast, of course, this is not that he has the ability to predict the future, but he found that each foot of the demon beast has a pair of strange wings, so he deliberately looked at it twice.

Of course, the unlucky demon beast was also reduced to blood food and soaked in that terrible pit in the end, but when Wang Shen remembered the mark on its body again, he found that it was actually somewhat similar to some of the strokes on this divine talisman, but it was only partially similar, not exactly the same.

Therefore, Wang Shen had this doubt, the talisman can attract the aura of heaven and earth, in addition to being related to the user's Dao recipe, it must also be related to the pattern drawn by the cinnabar above, and almost all the demon beasts he has seen can attract the aura of heaven and earth, but the aura of heaven and earth attracted by different demon beasts is completely different, he killed nearly a hundred demon beasts in Wushan, and all the wind and rain, thunder, lightning, water, fire, earth and stone have been used by demon beasts.

Could it be that the power of this demon beast is mysterious on the mark on the body?

This idea made Wang Shen feel a little unbelievable, but he felt that his discovery should not be whimsical, there were naturally scholars of the world on Longhu Mountain, and he must have seen many more demon beasts than himself. This little Taoist priest doesn't know, it doesn't mean that no one in the Heavenly Master's Mansion knows, since someone already knows, I'm afraid it's not a big secret.

Could it be that the original source of this talisman has something to do with those demon beasts?

But listening to the words of this little Taoist, there are not many types of talismans on Dragon and Tiger Mountain, there are only a dozen or so kinds in total, if it really comes from demon beasts, there are thousands of demon beasts in heaven and earth, and each demon beast has a different imprint, wouldn't it be possible to evolve countless kinds of talismans?

If it was really so simple, the masters of Dragon and Tiger Mountain would have done it a long time ago, where would they wait for an outsider to consider this kind of thing, it seems that there is only a certain connection between the talisman and the demon beast mark, but there is also a big essential difference.

As for what the difference is, Wang Shen does not know, although he is naturally curious, but he does not delve into this kind of too secret problem without bothering himself.

Seeing Wang Shen looking at the night rain outside the door in a daze, Dong Sanpo walked up to him and asked with a smile, "What is Brother Wang thinking?"

Wang Shen came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I just remembered some of the past, which made Master Dong smile." ”

Dong Sanpo nodded knowingly and said, "Brother Wang is still the first time to come to Jiangling, right?"

If Wushan is also counted into Jiangling Road, Wang Shen can't be counted as the first time, but this Dingzhou is farther than Wushan from Xishu, and this trip is indeed the farthest door he has ever come out, so he immediately replied: "Well, the first time I came, I didn't expect that this Jiangling Road would rain so much." ”

Dong Sanpo looked at the rain curtain in the night, and said worriedly: "Hey, yes, I have been delayed for a lot of days, and I hope that the next few days will be more restrained." Otherwise, the Dongting Lake Four Roads Conference at the end of this month may not be able to catch up with the ......"
