Looking at the mountain and running a dead horse, Qi Xuansu saw the "Ghost Pass" early and came to the mountain road before the "Ghost Pass", but he really arrived at the city of "Ghost Pass", it was already an hour later.

The reason why "Ghost Pass" is so named can be traced back to the Gudaomen period.

At that time, the Daomen was divided into five, and it was called the Eastern Daomen, the Western Daomen, the Southern Daomen, the Northern Daomen, and the Central Daomen.

The Eastern Daomen is the predecessor of the Taiping Dao headed by the Li family, the Southern Daomen is the predecessor of the Zhengyi led by the Zhang family, the Northern Daomen is the predecessor of the Qin family of the Great Xuan Imperial Family, and the Central Daomen can be regarded as the predecessor of the Quanzhen Dao. And the Western Daomen is the predecessor of the Daomen side branch that later went away to the Western Regions with the Taiyun.

Hundreds of years ago, there were two people vying for the position of the master of the Western Daomen.

One of them is a human immortal martial artist, the blood and qi in the body are as prosperous as the ancient giant beasts, one meal can eat nine elephants, a punch is as heavy as nine tripods, and one drink can break thousands of spells, which can be called the ultimate martial arts.

The other person is a ghost fairy Fangshi, a thought of a world, with magic to create a ghost country, in which the illusion is varied, it is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, after detaining countless living beings and dead souls, it is actually a small six reincarnation, trying to become a world of its own.

In the end, it is the ghost fairy who is difficult to fight the enemy immortal, after the human immortal enters the ghost country in person, the ghost country is difficult to bear the sky-high blood and directly shatters and disillusionment, and the ghost fairy is even more affected by the ghost country and dies.

Since then, the disciples of the ghost fairy have learned from the pain and decided to build a real ghost kingdom on earth, and they have betrayed the Pavilion Soap Road, calling themselves "Soap Pavilion" and occupying the North Mountain.

Beibi Mountain is one of the seventy-two blessed lands, ranking is still above Yunjin Mountain, it is a treasure land that gathers heaven and earth and is beautiful, so there are emperors and dignitaries of the past dynasties to build mausoleums and tombs here, after the Soap Pavilion Sect occupies this place, it has begun to work for more than 100 years, detaining countless living souls and dead souls, secretly hibernating, waiting for the opportunity.

When the Golden Horde army went south, the Great Jin Dynasty collapsed, the world was in chaos, and the corpses were killed in a sea of blood.

This is the later ghost country cave, which has its own world, and is said to be comparable in size to the imperial capital.

Daomen once attacked the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven twice, but the result was that Daomen won, and the Soap Pavilion Sect was also defeated twice. When the Xuansheng integrated the Five Directions Dao Gate, he completely destroyed the Soap Pavilion Sect, restored the Soap Pavilion, and included it in the name of the Quanzhen Dao together with the Ghost Country Cave Heaven.

After the two wars, the ghost country cave was already dilapidated, just like a house, only pillars and beams and some broken walls remained, and the air leaked on all sides. The yin qi in the cave diffuses to the entire Beibi Mountain, making the Beibi Mountain almost turn into a ghost in the world.

Some people have proposed to completely destroy the cave to prevent it from continuing to erode the Beibi Mountain. There are also people who advocate retaining the ghost country cave, after all, this place embodies the wisdom and hard work of the predecessors, if

It is too wasteful to destroy, and as for the so-called good and evil, it all depends on how to use it.

Xuan Sheng finally decided to keep the cave heaven and repair the cave heaven here to prevent its yin qi from continuing to overflow.

This repair of the cave heaven lasted a hundred years, and even went through several generations, and even the Great Palm Sect changed three before the repair was finally completed. The Daomen opened up the cave as a place for storage, testing, cultivation, and suppression of various "creations", and a workshop in the Avatar Hall was located inside the cave.

In this case, if the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven is broken by an external force, causing the Yin Qi to leak and the "creation" to escape, then the serious consequences will be far worse than the destruction of the original Cuowenbu Workshop.

Therefore, the Daomen is heavily guarded here, and a checkpoint is set up on the way to the ghost country cave, called "Ghost Pass".

Qi Xuansu came to the city of "Ghost Pass", only to see an overall black pass located between two mountain peaks, halfway up the mountain, completely blocking the way, it can be said that it is a husband and a man can not be opened, the city head and the mountains on both sides are equipped with a variety of city guarding equipment and the spirit officer who is also wearing black armor, and the garrison is visible to the naked eye.

It is said that there is a first-grade spiritual official in this place, and although his combat power cannot be compared with the first-grade naïve Taoist, it is far beyond the ordinary second-grade Taiyi Taoist, and he is among the best among the people who know the truth.

In addition, Qi Xuansu also vaguely saw a huge figure standing on the cliff above both sides of the "Ghost Pass", although he couldn't see his true face clearly, Qi Xuansu guessed that it was mostly a "creation" and the like.

Si Ming Zhenjun has always coveted this place, and he has made several ideas, but he has always returned with a feather. At the beginning, the Gu Immortals were able to sneak into Yujing because of the lax defense of Yujing, after all, there were too many masters in Yujing, and no one thought that Gu Immortals dared to come to Yujing to spread wild, which was considered dark under the lights. However, the "ghost pass" is different, and if there is a slight disturbance, it will immediately be under full martial law, and it is difficult to sneak into it.

Even if there are Gu Immortals who use their great magical powers to capture someone and cross the sea to enter the "Ghost Pass", it is only the first level, and then there are layers of fortifications, and if you want to enter the most core place, only some first-class naïve Taoists and See-Zhi Zhenren can do it.

At this time, the door of the "ghost pass" was wide open, there was no martial law, and there were not many people passing by, so there was no need to queue.

Qi Xuansu came to the spirit officer in charge of the inspection procedures and took out his two waist cards, one was given by Qin Wuxian and the other was given by Pei Xiaolou.

There were two spirit officers in total, and one of them checked the two waist cards and asked, "Passing?" ”

Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "Go to Longmen Mansion, there are some private matters." ”

"Okay." The spirit officer's attitude was somewhat softened, and he no longer looked at each other. As long as they don't enter the cave or the workshop, they won't continue to investigate further.

The spirit officer handed over the waist card to another spirit officer to register Qi Xuansu.

While waiting, Qi Xuansu took the lead

Talking to this spirit officer, he asked casually, "Brother, since the matter of Cuowenbu, there are no demons of the secret association on your side, right?" ”

The matter of Cuowenbu has been reported by the Daomen, and almost everyone in the Daomen knows about it, so the spirit official doesn't feel that there is anything wrong, and replied: "It's okay on our side, there are no big demons to make trouble, after all, it is located between Xijing Mansion and Longmen Mansion, and it is not far from Dilung Mountain, even if it encounters a big attack by demons, it can rush to help." But there are still some small fights. ”

Qi Xuansu asked curiously, "What kind of fight?" ”

"There are demons from the 'Heavenly Court' who openly murder people in Xijing Mansion, and it is the people of the Imperial Court who are killed, and there is a letter from Xijing Mansion, let us pay attention to whether the demons of the 'Heavenly Court' have fled here." The spirit official sneered, "I don't know what the people above think, anyway, I haven't seen a demon escape to the 'Ghost Pass', it's better to be caught on the spot, or flee directly to Yujing, wouldn't it be more convenient?" ”

Qi Xuansu laughed: "What my brother said is reasonable. If I were that demon, I would probably flee in the direction of Yongzhou and Liangzhou, where the land is vast and sparsely populated, so it is easy to hide, or I would go to Lingnan via Jiangnan, where the 'Heavenly Court' is located. Why don't you run to the 'ghost gate', isn't this self-defeating? ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Lingguan is also a human being, and he has been stationed here for a long time, so it is inevitable that he will complain a little, "There is one more thing, a Taoist priest died in Wuxu Palace, although he is not a big person, but he is a disciple of the real person in charge of the palace, so there is also a letter from Wuxu Palace, let us pay attention to passers-by and see if there are any suspicious characters." ”

Qi Xuansu didn't show it on his face, and pretended to be surprised: "Dead? When I came, I didn't hear anything about the dead. ”

"It just happened, of course my brother didn't hear about it." Lingguan said, "I don't know if those people think that we are too idle, and the demons are chaotic, so they want us to pay attention, and the dead people also want us to pay attention." From Xijing Mansion to 'Ghost Pass', a distance of hundreds of miles, and hundreds of miles of Beibi Mountain, where can you not go? The murderer's brain let the donkey kick, and then he ran to our 'ghost pass'. If you want me to say, most of them were killed by the 'Heavenly Court' demon, and it happened that the two cases were done together. ”

Qi Xuansu, who was suspected of having been kicked in the head by a donkey, said with a smile: "The hero sees the same thing. I also think that's the case, maybe the Taoist leader just happened to break through the demon's whereabouts, and the demon simply didn't do anything, and directly killed people. ”

At this time, the spirit officer in charge of registration said, "Wei Wugui, right?" See if there is no problem, please sign. ”

Qi Xuansu smiled apologetically at the spirit officer who was talking, came to the table, glanced at the registration contents, and wrote down the words "Wei Wugui" with a pen.

The spirit officer in charge of registration returned the two waist cards to Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu said goodbye to the two, then turned over and entered the "ghost pass".
