Chapter 13: The Cow in Prison (I)
Hiking mountain is located in the north of Qianzhong County, the whole mountain covers an extremely wide and high area, towering into the clouds, the side peaks around the main peak are endless, forming several "W" shapes. It's just that except for the main peak, the rest of the peaks are stacked on top of each other, and there is no trace of artificial development.
The main peak is called Butian Peak, and the bluestone steps stretch from the foot of the mountain to the middle of Butian Peak. The waist of the mountain peak was broken by a temple called the Temple of All Saints.
The temple enshrines all the generals of the Great Qian Dynasty when it was founded, and the one in the middle is the female emperor Kunzong who has served many times ago.
It is recorded that Kunzong was born with a special ability, although he was a daughter, but he opened his mouth with a male voice, and he could easily open a ten-stone bow when he was a minor, and she was a royal concubine, and she restored the friendly relationship with the Buzhou Dynasty during her reign, and personally led the army to open up the territory to the south, and many Tusi barbarian leaders in southern Xinjiang were killed by Kunzong himself.
San'in Castle was conquered during the reign of Kunzong.
Not only when she was in power, but even when she was in power, it was bloody. Before the old emperor's death, several imperial brothers, including the crown prince, either died violently or disappeared, but no one dared to specify who did it.
This is the turn of Kunzong to inherit the unification, and it was Kunzong who opened up Butianfeng and built the temples during his reign.
Perhaps it is precisely because of the existence of the temples that the Great Qian Dynasty then set the mountain as the national mountain of the Great Qian Dynasty, and Butian Peak as the main peak of the mountain, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims who go to Butian Peak every day, including various rich and high-ranking officials in Qianzhong County.
Bypass the temple, which is covered with thorny fir trees, where the steps are interrupted and a wooden sign stands next to it.
"There are many fierce beasts in the back mountains, don't go."
Sun Xianlin took Lin Fei to step over the wooden sign, and the surrounding aura changed in an instant. I saw Sun Xianlin take out the identity plate, and pointed to the name on the wooden plate with his left hand, the wooden card shimmered, and the miasma thorns in front of him disappeared instantly, replaced by a cyan stone road several meters wide, and a white jade was inlaid every half a meter on the road.
The jade is painted with a variety of strange beast-shaped patterns, each of which has different shapes, but it can be seen that it belongs to a class of creatures.
Lin Fei looked at both sides of the stone road, and there were large pieces of white bones, except for some beast bones, many of them could be vaguely seen even after the decomposition of human corpses.
"Maybe this is the so-called prison cow?" Lin Fei looked at the pattern and was silent, and the corpses around him were constantly reminded that the sects in this world were very weird.
"This white jade slab is engraved with the sacred beast prison cow that I sent to worship, and it was engraved by the elders of my sect." Sun Xianlin saw Lin Fei staring at the slate, and said, "Don't keep staring at the slate, ordinary people are easy to be affected by their sanity after watching it for a long time, and if it is serious, they may even become beasts, and don't step on the slate and be disrespectful to the ancestors." β
"Senior Brother Sun, where are those bones on the side of the road?" Lin Fei nodded and asked in a low voice.
"It's just an ordinary person who strayed into the back mountain, Brother Lin, you may not know what the status of my Prisoner Niu Sect is in Daqian." Sun Xianlin sneered.
"I want to hear about it."
"Mortals are muddled and live in vain, they don't know the real horror, and if there were no bloodline aliens like us to support them, they would have fallen into an infernal hell long ago."
Sun Xianlin waved his right hand at the surrounding bones, and a gust of wind blew the bones into the distance.
"There are so many mysteries in the world, it's just that mortals have forgotten them after they suddenly disappeared in the past few decades. Just like the black mist evil you brought, it is a kind of natural mystery, mortals cannot touch, touch it and die, only aliens such as us can suppress and destroy, of course, the so-called elimination... Brother Lin, you'll understand when you get started. β
"As for where these evils come from, we have always wanted to know."
"Thank you, senior brother, for telling me." Lin Fei arched his hand and bowed deeply, "If it weren't for Senior Brother Mingyu and Senior Sister Chongyao, it's a pity that I wouldn't have been able to understand these facts." β
Sun Xianlin's face turned pale, and he didn't answer Lin Fei's exclamation, but just silently led him forward for hundreds of meters.
Obviously, from the outside, the altitude of the entire mountain is only a thousand meters, and the back mountain is less than seven or eight hundred meters at most after being cut off by the holy temples, but the two of them walked briskly for about ten minutes and could not see the end.
At their pace, they should have walked a few hikes long ago.
Just as Lin Fei was about to open his mouth to ask when he was going, a white mist suddenly appeared in front of him, and a strange face was formed in the middle of the white mist, and the facial features of the human face were distorted towards the two of them for a long time.
Then it dispersed, revealing the world behind the white mist.
The scenery after the white fog is completely different from the surroundings, it looks even more eerie, and then go back half a pillar of incense, and three caves tens of meters high and wide appear in front of you.
A dark green stream flowed out of the cave at the mouth of the cave, and the water was very viscous, and at first glance it seemed that the surface of the water was covered with white plush, but on closer inspection, it was just an ordinary stream, but it looked strange.
"Brother Lin, you haven't started yet, you haven't washed the blood veins of your body, you must not touch the stream, otherwise you will be swallowed by the stream immediately. This stream looks like water, but it's actually a strange thing that has existed since I established a cult here, but it has never been able to be suppressed, and it won't have any other effect on us, so it's here. β
A sleeping beast like a deep-water python.
This is Lin Fei's judgment on the underwater consciousness of the stream.
Continuing to move forward and entering the hole in the middle, Lin Fei instantly felt a burst of discomfort, as if he was being watched by many people at the same time.
"The first time I came to the mountain gate, it seems that I will be concerned by the souls of the ancestors of the past generations, and after that, it will be fine." Sun Xianlin saw Lin Fei's strange face and took the initiative to speak.
Lin Fei nodded, with a look of difficulty on his face and continued to follow.
The two walked all the way to the depths of the cave, until suddenly there was an open-air plaza in front of them, and the two walked to a wooden door at the back of the square and stopped.
Knock knock.
"Disciple Sun Xianlin, there is something important to report to the elders."
"Come in." A low, deep voice came from inside the door.
The wooden door opened instantly, and Sun Xianlin took Lin Fei into the room.
The room was very dim, and the outside sunlight did not shine into the room at all, except for a pale yellow candle flickering.
There is a futon in the middle, on which an old man sits cross-legged, the old man's face looks very thin, like an old man who has not been able to eat all year round, but his body is abnormally strong, and the whole looks very strange.
The old man put down the ancient book in his hand and looked at Sun Xianlin fixedly.
"Father, something happened to Chongyao." Sun Xianlin stepped forward slowly and knelt in front of the old man.
"I have already guessed that Ming Yujun is a savage with an introduction to art, his ability is limited, and Chongyao is too naΓ―ve. If it weren't for the special situation, the door would not have sent the two of them to retrieve the evil strange, Ming Yujun is fine when he died, but it's a pity that the evil strange has not been brought back..."The old man paused, and continued, "Who is this person, and you brought the blood food for worship?" β
"Father, this is Brother Lin from Sanyin City, he brought back the relics of the evil black mist and Chongyao!" Sun Xianlin took out the Pure Evil Bottle that Lin Fei had just given him from his arms, and cautiously handed it to the old man.
The old man raised his head suddenly, his eyes pierced Lin Fei, and a strong sense of threat hit him, and for a moment it seemed that the whole person was seen through by the old man. But the feeling was fleeting, and the old man softened after a glance.
"This old man is more powerful than I thought! I had to keep a low profile. Lin Fei lowered his head, not daring to look at the old man's gaze, his heart turned sharply, and he instantly decided his position, "No one knows the true situation of Sun Chongyao, and those people who know were secretly dealt with by me before leaving, so now I don't have anything to worry about..."
Lin Fei raised his head and smiled at the old man.
"It seems that the little brother is the great benefactor of my Prisoner Cattle Sect." The old man looked at the bottle of purifying evil in his hand, and suddenly laughed, and the corners of his mouth slowly cracked to both sides, until he reached the root of his ear.
"Heaven will not die, I will imprison the cattle faction, survive these two years, those small children, they will all die!" The old man seemed to be a little crazy and excited, laughing wildly and screaming piercingly, and it took more than half a minute to slowly calm down.
"Since you have a great favor with my faction, what do you want?"
"The younger generation only wants to worship the Prisoner Cow Sect, and does not want to wander around the world without knowing the truth." Lin Fei lowered his head, and the time had come to test his acting skills.
"You have traces of iron rope imprisoning body skills, presumably Chongyao likes you very much, and the bloodline is also full of impurities, complete mortal qualifications, and will not be an enemy who covets the bloodline of my faction. In that case, I'm in charge of getting you started. You don't have to worry about the formalities, Xianlin will help you arrange it completely. The old man nodded, set the tone in a few words, took out an identity nameplate from behind him, and handed it to Lin Fei after fumbling for it.
"That's it?" Lin Fei was speechless for an instant, what Chongyao had talked to him very happily with the previous draft, and Ming Yujun was so dissatisfied that he did not cooperate properly when he encountered evil.
It's all in vain.
"But it can also be seen that this black fog is indeed very important to the Prisoner Cattle Sect..."Lin Fei and Sun Xianlin retired together, leaving the old man alone to sit in the candlelight.
Elder Yun Zhongzi looked at Lin Fei's back as he left, and sighed, not knowing what he was thinking.
Yun Zhongzi is Sun Xianlin's biological father, and he is also the fourth-ranked elder of the Prisoner Niu Sect, nominally responsible for maintaining order within the sect, but in fact he cultivates with peace of mind and does not care about the affairs of the sect.
The sect is currently at a low point, and not only because of the lack of evil offerings.
In the past few decades, the evil things have suddenly disappeared, and some of them have also been snatched away by the major bloodline sects, and the various sects that have not responded in time have no evil things to worship, so they began to follow the practice of sacrificing human lives. These two offerings are essentially the same, and even killing mortal offerings can get stronger feedback.
In fact, the feedback of the prison cow has been weakening in recent years, and the high-level strength of the sect has also been affected, and it is eyed by other sects.
After all, the Prisoner Cow Sect still occupies a lot of resources, although these resources cannot be used to worship divine beasts, but they can also assist in cultivation and disperse forces.
"I don't know how effective this sacrifice is, it's eventful..."
If this sacrifice had not been reciprocated by Him, the Ox Prisoner Sect might have really perished in the long course of history.
The central square of the cave.
"Since my father said that there is no problem, then Senior Brother Lin can choose a room in the back, and there will be no evening classes. Tomorrow morning, there will be a morning class here, and every time a new disciple enters, there will be a mentor to introduce the basic situation of the sect, but the disciples in the sect generally do not live here, and only come when they have a summoning order or a task, so it seems a little empty. Sun Xianlin smiled.
"Okay, thank you, brother." Lin Fei arched his hand and watched Sun Xianlin leave. Sun Xianlin's walking style is very similar to Sun Chongyao, it seems that he walks far away after walking a few steps, but he looks more calm than Sun Chongyao.
Lin Fei took out the wooden sign and walked to a path at the corner of the square.
The cave leading to the disciples' room was very dark, and the stone walls were carved with strange patterns, which did not look like they were naturally formed, and made people feel dizzy and want to vomit after looking at them for a long time.
Along the stone cave path, Lin Fei walked briskly, and soon came to the door of a bunch of rooms.
Woooooooo
A gust of wind blew, and Lin Fei noticed that the room looked very strange, obviously with a decaying atmosphere, but it looked very new, and a small half of the wooden signs in front of the door were engraved with names, giving people a feeling of paying tribute to the dead.
Lin Fei casually chose a house that no one lived in front of him and walked in.
"No wonder there are no disciples living here, it looks like it's in the tomb, and there must be mental defects after living for a long time."
He casually made the bed, pondered the way forward, and before he knew it, it was the next day.
