Chapter 212: Staying at Night
The space inside the tent looks much larger than the outside, Zhang Haotian feels that there is no problem with a few more people moving here, but the problem is that there are only five beds inside, and it is impossible to accommodate the six of them tonight, but this is fine, after all, they can't figure out the current situation of the Beast Spirit Tower now, and it is also appropriate to leave one person for vigil.
There are all the things that should be in the tent, Zhang Haotian lit a fire in the center of the tent, but the tent itself will not spontaneously combust because of the fire, Zhang Haotian couldn't help but admire the teacher, and he didn't know how many spells overlapped here.
He Satin was still unconscious on the bed, and the five of them sat around the campfire, eating the dry food they were carrying, and chatting while eating. At the beginning, what he said was about Wu Hao, and Zhang Haotian was very interested in the purifier and the soul purifier.
"Brother Wu Hao, in fact, I have always had doubts, you are obviously a member of the Wu family of the talisman family, and you should be a talisman maker. But you have a miraculous purifier and a way to deal with ghosts, and to be honest, we haven't even heard of ghosts. "Soul Purifier is a term that has never appeared before, not only Zhang Haotian, but others are also curious.
Wu Hao replied with a smile: "It's normal for you not to know, it is impossible for ghosts to appear in the Dao Realm, I don't know what is the matter with the ghosts of the Beast Spirit Tower? Soul purifiers are also unique to the mortal realm. ”
"Is there a talisman in the mortal realm?" I remember that people in the mortal realm can't cast spells...... Zhang Haotian was slightly puzzled.
"That's right, no one in the mortal realm can use talismans, they just have empty Dao spirits. The Soul Purifier also went from the Dao Realm to the Mortal Realm, and he could make a lot of money by sealing ghosts and spirits for others. When I was young, I met ghosts in the mortal realm, and it was my master who saved me, and from that time on, I wanted to be a soul purifier like my master, so I secretly left home to find my master and learn the art of soul purification with him.
"However, I have experienced a lot of twists and turns along the way, my father has always opposed me as a soul purifier, after all, we are a family of talismans, and there is always a craft of talisman making, in order to stay with the master, I learned both soul purification and talisman making, and it is also because of both sides at the same time, the progress on both sides is not very smooth, and the level of talisman is also what you see, if I can improve a little more, there will be no accident today.
"This time I came back to participate in the Beast Spirit Tower Conference, and I was almost half-forced by my father to come back to participate, after all, he is the son of the head of the family, and at the age of thirteen, it is unreasonable not to come back to participate in this grand event. Actually, I'm really not strong in the family, and if I have any ability, it's pure spirit. ”
"It's true that each family has its own troubles. Zhang Haotian suddenly resonated, and now that he thinks about it, the friction between him and his family has been constant, and it was not until half a year ago that he communicated and understood with his father.
Er Yan listened to Zhang Haotian's words on the side, holding her little face with her hands and looking a little thoughtful, but she didn't make a sound, compared with her previous activity, she was much quieter.
"What's the matter with the purifier? I think it's kind of like a talisman. Xu Zifeng asked suspiciously.
"It's a talisman, it should be said that it is a kind of talisman, it is specially used to deal with ghosts, and it takes a lot of time to use a talisman to deal with ghosts, if it is a talisman, it can save time to deal with ghosts. So I can also be considered half a rune master, although I can only make purifiers. Wu Hao teased himself.
At this time, Yang Niansi opened his mouth and interjected: "I have a doubt, you just said that only the mortal realm will have ghosts, so how can there be ghosts in the Beast Spirit Tower? ”
Wu Hao's face suddenly became grim: "Indeed, there should be no ghosts in the Dao Realm, but the Beast Spirit Tower is different here, this cemetery should be in the mortal realm." ”
As soon as Wu Hao's words came out, Zhang Haotian and Xu Zifeng immediately made eye contact with each other, and it seemed that their previous guess might have guessed the right direction.
"What kind of place is this cemetery in the Mortal Realm?" Zhang Haotian asked anxiously.
"Lost Village, this is the current name, the original name is Taoxing Village, where my master was born and raised. My master was born in the only talisman family in Taoxing Village, but when he was ten years old, Taoxing Village suffered a great change, and only Master's family survived in the entire village, and these tombs are the tombs of the villagers.
"The Dao spirits in those who died were alienated and distorted because of that accident, and a large number of ghosts were born, and they have been wandering in the Lost Village, and no one dares to approach this village again. But after all, this is the village where Master grew up, and his feelings for this place cannot be separated.
So in order to get rid of the ghosts of this village, for the sake of the dead villagers, and for the village to be able to find salvation and tranquility, he became a soul purifier. Every year, Master will come back to the Lost Village to purify the ghosts, but there are too many ghosts here, too many and too deep, and the Master can do very little, and the Lost Village has always been like this. ”
"Then this Lost Village should have nothing to do with your Wu family, right? Zhang Haotian asked.
Wu Hao shook his head puzzled: "Of course, although it has something to do with me, it can't fight with the Wu family." ”
"It seems that our previous speculation is still biased. Zhang Haotian said this to Xu Zifeng, and Xu Zifeng nodded in agreement.
"What is your speculation?" Wu Hao and Yang Niansi were obviously very concerned.
"I have looked around me in the air, and I found that this place is made up of completely different places, just take the forest here as an example, it is the Hades King Forest under the Qingcheng Sect of Brother Xu, which is extremely dangerous. I originally thought that these places should be related to the Six Sects and Thirteen Families, but now it seems that they should be related to everyone in our Beast Spirit Tower. Every place on the second floor is what we think is a dangerous place. ”
"No wonder......" Yang Niansi suddenly realized when he heard Zhang Haotian's words, "I'll just say how can there be an entrance to the Evil Emperor Valley on the second layer." ”
Yang Niansi had followed the family to take turns in the Yin Desolation, and had also fought against the Yin Creatures on the periphery of the Evil Emperor Valley, and the eerie horror of the Evil Emperor Valley had always been entangled in Yang Niansi's mind, so it was not strange that the second layer of the Evil Emperor Valley appeared because of him.
"But even if we figure out that the second layer has a sinister place in our hearts, then what are the conditions for clearing the second layer? Compared to the first layer, the goal of the second layer is not at all, if the time is to solve the trouble of the sinister place in our hearts, then I have clearly purified the ghosts, but I have not been qualified to enter the next layer. Wu Hao put forward the most important point, which Zhang Haotian also understands very well.
The most serious situation in front of them now is that there are dangerous places all around, and they have no way to enter the next layer, let alone a method, not even an entrance to the next level.
"Haohao now, can you still talk to that voice?" Er Yan suddenly asked Zhang Haotian.
Zhang Haotian didn't come back to his senses all of a sudden: "......Voice? Tree of Knowledge?"
Zhang Hao Tiancai understood that what Er Yan was talking about was the Zhiyan Tree, since he was able to communicate with the Zhiyan Tree in the first layer, then this layer might be able to, but would the Zhiyan Tree really respond? Finding a way to enter the next layer is really not part of the trial of the Beast Spirit Tower?
"I'll try. Although he was not very sure, Zhang Haotian decided to give it a try, and stood up from the campfire, and the eyes of the rest of the people fell on him.
"Zhiyan Tree Senior, I know what you've heard, what is the goal of the second layer, can you tell us?"
Zhang Haotian waited for a response, but just as he was mentally prepared, there was silence around him, and Zhiyanshu did not respond at all.
"What are you doing?" The sudden sound startled everyone, this was obviously not the voice of Zhiyanshu, but the voice of a woman, Yang Niansi looked excitedly in the direction where He Satin was lying.
"You're awake, Ho Satin. Yang Niansi stood up with some excitement.
"Yang Niansi, why are you here......? What's wrong with me? I remember I should be in ......"
"You were affected by the Lost Village Cemetery, and your own Dao spirit was alienated, giving birth to a ghost that should only appear in the mortal realm, and it was the joint efforts of several of us to purify the ghost on your body. Wu Hao, as a soul purifier, explained to her.
Obviously, her eyes were still suspicious, but her chest was uncomfortable, so she reached out to cover it, but she touched something hard, He Satin turned around to check what was more on her chest, and found the pale white scales.
"What's the matter with these scales? I didn't have them on me. ”
"When purifying the ghost on your body, the purifier left a wound on your body, and I used a charm to stop the bleeding, and when the wound heals, the scales should fall off on its own. Zhang Haotian could only explain in person.
He Satin looked at Zhang Haotian's eyes and was the most alert: "You are the Long Hao who broke into the tower." ”
"It's me. Zhang Haotian replied honestly.
"To be honest, even if you saved me, I didn't think you had a good heart and trespassed on the tower, who knows what you're going to do. He Satin was clearly still hostile to Zhang Haotian.
Zhang Haotian didn't take her hostility to heart, he had long been prepared that most people were hostile to him, but Wu Hao and Yang Niansi's attitude towards him surprised Zhang Haotian.
"Don't say that Haohao, Haohao is not as unbearable as you say, it is Haohao who saved you, and the place where you rest is also Haohao's tent. Er Yan spoke for Zhang Haotian quite unconvinced, to be honest, someone stood up for herself, and there was always a trace of indescribable joy in her heart, especially this one was still Er Yan.
"Looks like you're on good terms with this intruder, so affectionate. He Satin was clearly disgusted by Er Yan's attitude. In her opinion, an intruder is an intruder, no matter what the purpose, Zhang Haotian has been a hostile person in He Sain's heart since he used improper means to enter the Beast Spirit Tower.
"He Satin, there is no need to provoke conflict now, the way to enter the next layer is unclear now, I think we should discuss it properly. Yang Niansi was not as extreme as He Satin, trying to persuade He Satin, for fear that He Sain would leave in a hurry with Shang who had not yet recovered.
"Yang Niansi, don't pretend to be very familiar with me, only people like you who are easily weak will fall into a desperate situation in the Evil Emperor Valley, otherwise you won't need me to save your life. He Satin didn't appreciate it at all, but instead talked about the fact that he had saved Yang Niansi.
Yang Niansi should not be silent, it is a fact that he was saved by He Sain, because it is also a fact that he is indecisive and in a desperate situation, he is really speechless, his temperament may really not be able to please He Satin.
It was the most embarrassing time in the atmosphere, Wu Hao suddenly snorted coldly, and it sounded like he was mocking He Satin's attitude.
