Several pieces of doors made of broken wooden boards squeaked open with the movement of the five-clawed golden dragon.

I have heard people say that the Taoist temples on Zhongnan Mountain are all closed at night.

First, the cultivators have nothing to do, so they don't need to guard against thieves.

In both cases, there is a door for people who need to stay overnight, which can make it easier for them to enter and exit.

As soon as the door opened, a light lit up in the room.

Immediately, the door opened, and an old man stepped out of it.

The old man was about seventy or eighty years old, with a white beard, tall and thin, and his face was full of wrinkles.

However, he has a straight waist and is full of energy.

I didn't think that there were still people here, I was overjoyed, and hurriedly said to him: "Senior, I came uninvited to visit Shenshen, and I apologize for disturbing Qing Xiu." ”

The old man looked at the three of us from head to toe, bowed his head slightly: "Since you call me a senior, you must also be a member of the Daomen, and if you come here late at night, you won't be lost in this mountain, right?" ”

I replied: "I'm waiting to come, I want to ask my seniors about something." ”

The old man nodded: "In this case, Xiaoyou please talk about it in the house." ”

The furnishings in the house are exceptionally simple.

In the center is a low wooden table, in which a glass oil lamp is lit, and on the sides are several old porcelain bowls.

On the north wall is an offering table with a statue of the Origin Celestial Statue.

On top of that, there are some necessities of life.

It's really shabby.

The old man invited us to sit down, poured a bowl of water for each of us, and asked, "I wonder what you have to inquire about?" ”

The old man got straight to the point, and I didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "Senior, I want to know where the half of the truncated monument you built on the Taoist temple wall comes from?" Do you recognize the words on it? ”

When the old man heard my words, his old face full of folds was instantly stunned, and his eyes stared at me without saying a word.

I was stared at by him, and at the same time, a sense of foreboding rose in my mind.

After pondering for a while, the old man didn't mean to speak, so I had to stiffen my neck and ask, "Senior, what's wrong with you?" Is there something wrong with the broken monument? ”

When the old man saw my urging, his brows furrowed tightly, and he pondered for a while before he said quietly: "When I first came here, I picked up stones to build a house, and I accidentally picked it up in the pile of rubble, and its size was suitable, so I used it to build a wall. As for the words on it and its origin, I don't know anything. ”

The old man's words disappointed me.

However, when he first heard my question, I thought he must know something, but he just didn't want to tell us.

The five-clawed golden dragon is straightforward, and after listening to the old man's words, he is not polite at all: "Old man, we are not three-year-old children, don't blame us......"

"Dick!"

Seeing that this thing is not good at speaking, it is full of threats, and it seems that he is asking for someone.

Kirin interrupted it with a scolding.

"Old man, we inquired about this broken monument, there is something related to human life to do, the people of the Taoist have the world in mind, and they should cherish the people's livelihood, if you know anything, I hope to tell you the truth."

Kirin said this beautifully.

As soon as it finished speaking, I hurriedly echoed: "Yes, senior, human life is at stake, you can tell us what you know." ”

The old man's face became solemn, mixed with a hint of consternation: "Someone has entered that place again?" ”

That place?

Where?

Could it be where Li Di went?

I was stunned, and then overjoyed.

Just as he was thinking about how to ask where that place was, the old man suddenly sighed heavily: "Heaven has the virtue of a good life, how can I be the kind of person who can't be saved when he dies?" It's just that the words on the stone tablet are ominous words, and the place where they appear is either fierce or evil, and people have gone to nine deaths and one life. Those who go in can only say that they should be this way, and you should not make any more unnecessary sacrifices. ”

How do you say that?

Listen to this meaning, is that still a fierce place?

The old man's tone loosened, and I struck while the iron was hot: "Senior, we are not afraid, you tell us that place, Longtan Tiger's Den, I will also break in, if I don't save people, I will be uneasy in my life......"

The old man listened to me quietly, looked at us, and asked, "Do you know what this word is?" It's a ghost book. ”

"Ghost books?"

I gasped.

The ghost book, also known as the Ghost Script, is a text written for the dead to read, specially used to communicate with the underworld.

According to legend, the ghost book was created by a man named Lu Duogong. After he was created, he was able to understand all the things of the underworld, and he could calculate the lifespan of a person with a ghost book, and he could change his life for him.

For this reason, the underworld was alarmed, and the people of the underworld thought that the ghost book was too powerful, and they were afraid that it would be detrimental to the underworld when people mastered it, so they sent someone to burn it.

I never thought that it was not burned completely, and there were still hundreds of words pressed under the inkstone, and I escaped.

This Lu Duogong was afraid that he would be calculated by the underworld again, so he put the ghost book in his mind after that, and he no longer dared to take it out to calculate the things of the underworld.

This ghost book has always been passed down by word of mouth among cultivators, but I have only heard it from others, but I have never seen it.

Unexpectedly, the text marked on the map was actually a ghost book!

Secretly surprised in my heart, I took out the notebook left by Wu Fu and handed it to the old man with both hands: "Senior, do you know what is recorded on it?" ”

The old man opened the notebook, only glanced at it, shook his head and said, "I see Xiaoyou's surprised look, I should also know the origin of this ghost book, right?" ”

I didn't hide it, nodded and said, "I know a little bit about it." ”

After hearing this, the old man smiled indifferently: "Since you know the origin of this ghost book, you must know that this ghost book cannot be used in the world at will." It is precisely because of this that most ghost books are single or secret, so there are few people in the world who really know and know, how can I know them? ”

When the old man said this, his expression was frank, not like a lie.

I didn't give up, and asked again: "Since the predecessors don't know it, how do you know that it is a ghost book?" And where is the place you mentioned earlier? ”

The old man shook his head and was about to speak, but his eyes fell on the notebook again.

After that, he let out a "huh", staring at the book, his brows twisted.

He must have seen something!

I didn't dare to disturb him and waited quietly.

The old man looked at it very carefully, and it took three or four minutes before he closed the notebook.

He raised his head, looked at me again, and asked, "Who are you from Wu Yuanshan?" ”

Wu Yuanshan?

Where do I know what Wu Yuanshan!

I had to answer honestly: "I don't know." ”

"Don't recognize?" The old man didn't seem to believe what I said, and his eyes revealed an aggressive and heroic spirit, "Then where did you get the things recorded in this book?" ”

He actually knew that the things in this book were extended!

Could it be that he had seen this ghost book?

And that map?

It's also that my brain can't keep up, and it wasn't until this time that I remembered Wu Fulai.

Isn't Wu inevitably the Wu family, is he a family with that Wu Yuanshan?

Could it be that the map is the ancestral heirloom of the Wu family?

The person in front of me happened to know the Wu family......
