Chapter 15: The Devil is Outrageous
The ghost road is a system that has been handed down since the flood period, but it has been broken in ancient times, although there are also a number of forces, but because no one carries the tripod, so it has been nameless.
Until the Tang Dynasty, there was a ghost monk named Jianhai, who controlled 100,000 fierce beasts with the secret method of the ghost way, and slaughtered from the southern Xinjiang into the Central Plains, raging all the way, and the place where he passed was all ruins and scorched earth.
At that time, in order to resist the 100,000 fierce beasts led by Jianhai, the Central Plains Wulin and the Tang royal family had to unite, and after killing and injuring hundreds of thousands of people, they finally killed Jianhai with decapitation tactics, which resolved the catastrophe.
Because in this battle, the ghost path spell of Ikaikai was too terrifying, so from that time on, the ghost path was vigorously suppressed, and countless ghost path sects were uprooted.
Until the War of Resistance that year, the major forces of the ghost path also participated, and sacrificed an unknown number of people, which made their situation slightly better, although they were still discriminated against and feared, but at least they were no longer suppressed by all kinds of things like before.
Although it is said that the ghost path has been suppressed for thousands of years because of Ikai, because Ikai is the first person to make the name of the ghost path intimidate the world since ancient times, so since then, Ikai has also been respected as an ancestor-level figure by the monks of the ghost way.
With two, Shi Chiyan looked at Yu Lewei and sighed: "Our Patriarch of the Sea is a little interesting!" ”
Smiling, Yu Lewei said softly: "This Patriarch of the Sea is my father's idol." ”
was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly, could it be that the fish turned into a dragon and planned to be the sea?
This is not an ancient society, in modern society, it is almost difficult for an individual's strength to set off any waves, let alone fight against the country on his own.
Shaking his head, Shi Chi Yan re-immersed his thoughts in the jade slip and continued to read the rest of the content.
Most of the materials that followed were common-sense information, such as how to judge other people's cultivation, as well as the eight taboos of the Daomen, and so on.
Among them, about the different uses of ghost qi by the major forces of the ghost path, Shi Chi Yan read it several times.
If a ghost path monk wants to cultivate, in addition to the ghost qi of the human realm, the most suitable for cultivation is undoubtedly the ghost qi born from the origin of the ghost realm.
During the flood period, the ghost path was all over the world, relying on the ghost qi that penetrated the hearts and souls of others, but it could ignore the defense of others, whether it was true qi or spiritual power, it could not block the ghost path evil magic to strike a brazen blow.
It's just that the flood has fallen, and the ghost road is declining day by day in the human world, and after the catastrophe set off by the sea, the ghost road has been hit hard, and now, the ghost road in the human world is no longer a pure ghost road, but a combination of the characteristics of many systems such as martial artists, Taoists, and cultivators.
The Yin Yang Sect where Yu Lewei is located, although it is based on ghost magic, is supplemented by Taoist Yin and Yang techniques, dividing yin and yang, and the ghost power circulates circulating, endlessly.
And their destination this time, the Xuanyuan family, the ruler of the ghost city of Xudu, claims to be a descendant of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, and the cultivation is the "Yellow Emperor's Secret Ghost Record" passed down by the Yellow Emperor himself.
Thinking of this, Shi Chi Yan secretly thought about his own self-cultivation, the "Soul Yan" in his mind was infinitely mysterious, and it could be said that it was many times more profound than the Taoist Inner Dan Technique.
But for some reason, "Soul Yan" doesn't seem to have too many offensive methods, but more of the effect of nourishing itself and building a solid foundation.
"There is still a lack of means to deal with the enemy." Shi Chi Yan said softly.
"What?" He was muttering to himself, Yu Lewei was looking at his phone again, only to hear what he seemed to say, and couldn't help but wonder.
"It's nothing, it's just talking to myself." Shi Chiyan smiled slightly, but did not answer.
Naturally, it is not good to practice on the high-speed rail, the two ordered a box lunch, and chatted after eating, they haven't seen each other for many years, and they have endless topics, but they have a tacit understanding, none of them mentioned that Yu Lewei didn't say goodbye back then.
Twelve hours later, the high-speed train slowly drove into Fengdu Railway Station.
As soon as the two got out of the car, a group of scalpers rushed in front of them, shouting in the local dialect whether they wanted to stay and take the car.
Seeing a large number of scalpers blocking the road, Yu Lewei and Shi Chi Yan couldn't help but smile at each other, as if they were back in college every time they had a vacation, very tacitly, Shi Chi Wei picked up Yu Lewei's backpack and walked in front, Yu Lewei followed behind with her hands behind her back, and all the scalpers who wanted to squeeze over and shout were blocked outside by Shi Chi Di.
After fighting for a while, the two of them finally passed through the flow of people, Shi Chi Yan was not familiar with life, and he didn't know how to go to the capital, so he looked directly at Yu Lewei, who had obviously been here before, waved his hand, and took Shi Chi Yan around the station for a while, before he came to the side of the road and got into a taxi.
After getting in the car, Yu Lewei reported the name of the place, and then looked down at the mobile phone.
Shi Chi Di turned his head to look out the window.
Different from the Yima Pingchuan in the water town of Jiangnan, Fengdu is a mountain town, and the whole city is almost composed of hills one after another, and the taxi is constantly going uphill and downhill.
More than half an hour later, Shi Chiyan suddenly felt something, frowned, and before he could speak, Yu Lewei, who was looking down and playing with her mobile phone, had already smiled faintly: "Don't be nervous." ”
Shi Chiyan nodded when he heard this, and the vigilance in his eyes weakened slightly.
Just now, he suddenly noticed that bursts of ghost aura appeared around him, and even among the crowd on the street next to him, there were many people exuding bursts of ghost qi all over their bodies, obviously all of them were ghost monks.
Because in the taxi, Shi Chi died and didn't ask much.
A moment later, the taxi stopped at the door of a hotel, and after the two got out of the car, Shi Chi couldn't help but shiver, not because he was afraid, but because he was suddenly in such a ghostly place, the whole person was extremely uncomfortable, as if he had suddenly entered an ice cave, and he was cold.
"Slowly get used to it," Yu Lewei saw that he was uncomfortable, and smiled, "When you get to the cave, there will only be ghosts left in it." ”
Shi Chiyan nodded lightly and followed Yu Lewei into the hotel one after the other.
They had just walked into the hotel, and a waiter came up to them, and said with a smile: "Hello two, please ask for accommodation......
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Yu Lewei raised her hand and showed a token, and said lightly: "Go to the cave." ”
Seeing the token engraved with the word Difu, the waiter's face changed slightly, and he said respectfully: "It turned out to be two adults, please here." As he spoke, he turned to get out of the way and led the two of them to the elevator.
Seeing Shi Chi Yan looking around, Yu Lewei smiled and said: "This is the import of Xudu, in order not to let the outside world suspect it, so this hotel was specially built, and those who don't have money to stay in the cave will come back here to rest." ”
Seeing that Chi Yan didn't understand too much, Yu Lewei could only explain carefully.
It turns out that this cave is connected to the ghost world, so there are not only a large number of ghosts in it, but also the strength is very strong, in order to protect themselves, the controller of the cave has specially built the ghost city of Xudu, in addition to preventing the ghost from attacking, but also used for trading, living, and cultivation.
It's just that if you want to enter the cave, you need to pay a similar entrance fee, and the ticket is time-limited, and if you want to live in it, you will have to spend more expensive fees.
Shi Chi Yan realized a little, this kind of place with a strong ghost aura is undoubtedly of great help to the cultivation of ghost path cultivators, and it is no wonder that some people will not hesitate to spend a high price to stay in it.
The waiter took the two of them to the elevator entrance, pressed the down button, and said with a smile: "This is the first time this adult has come to our capital, right?" Many directions should not be well understood, we have a guide here, just three pieces of the next ......"
"No need," Yu Lewei's voice suddenly cold, and a little indifference appeared on her pretty face, "We know the road." ”
In front of her, Yu Lewei and Shi Chi Yan were still drizzling when they were talking, and suddenly became indifferent, and the waiter was also stunned, and immediately laughed, and stuffed the half-cut manual back into his pocket.
Shi Chiyan had long been accustomed to the cold and arrogant attitude of this senior sister towards outsiders, and he didn't think so.
When the elevator arrived, the three of them walked in turn, the waiter took out a card and swiped it, and pressed the "V" button, and the elevator slowly descended.
As they continued to fall, Shi Chi Yan keenly noticed that the yin qi around them was gradually increasing.
After a while, the elevator finally stopped, and when the elevator door suddenly opened, Shi Chi Yan only felt a vast ghost qi gushing in from outside the door like a river.
The moment he was overwhelmed by that ghostly energy, he instinctively ran the "Soul Yan", and suddenly the rolling ghost qi did not enter the center of the eyebrows, the position of the center of the eyebrows is extremely critical, the Taoists and cultivators call it the Purple Mansion, and the Ghost Dao calls it the Soul Mansion, which means the place where the soul lives.
As a large amount of ghost qi submerged into it, Shi Chiyan's realm in the early stage of the moon wash was also loosened for a while, as if it was about to break through to the middle stage of the moon wash.
"Control yourself!"
At this moment, Yu Lewei suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder, breaking up his breakthrough trend.
As a cultivator, interrupting others' breakthroughs can be said to be comparable to the hatred of killing one's father and mother, but Shi Chi Yan knew that Yu Lewei would never harm herself, nor was she angry, she just looked at it suspiciously.
Yu Lewei said solemnly: "What you need now is not ghost qi, but the purest Taiyin qi, these ghost qi impurities are too much, don't absorb too much." ”
Shi Chi Yan understood, and immediately his body was shocked, and the ghost qi that had just been sucked into his eyebrows was actually reprimanded by him.
Yu Lewei handed him a pill and motioned for him to take it, then turned around and walked out of the elevator.
There seems to be a ban on the elevator entrance, and there has been no movement in the elevator before, but once he stepped out of the elevator, Shi Chiyan's ears were suddenly drowned out by the noise, and he looked at it, and there was an antique street with gray tile eaves, vermilion lacquer pillars, and shops selling all kinds of medicines and appliances on both sides.
Shi Chi Yan swept by at a glance, and the clothes of the passers-by can be described as both ancient and modern, some are in suits and leather shoes, some are robes and boots, and some people are wearing a cloak, and they can't see their faces and clothes clearly, which is quite mysterious.
Seeing Shi Chi Yan's indifferent expression, Yu Lewei smiled and asked, "You don't seem to be surprised." ”
Shrugging his shoulders, Shi Chiyan smiled and said, "Except for the ghost qi, there is nothing special here." ”
Yu Lewei can't help but wonder, indeed, Jiaxing, as the land of fish and rice, is accustomed to seeing the scenic spots of Yuehe, Wuzhen, and Xitang, and is really not interested in this pure classical scenery.
The place where they came out was a towering mountain with eight elevator doors on the wall, and it seemed that the elevator they had just taken had come here through this mountain.
Chi Yan followed him, and Yu Lewei said as she walked: "Yudu is divided into two urban areas inside and outside, and the periphery is a trading bazaar, the things here are more miscellaneous, and the farther ones will be divided into more fine, such as pills, magic weapons, exercises, and talismans, all of which have special sales areas. ”
"As for the inner city, it's all inns," Yu Lewei pointed in the direction and said with a smile, "If you want to stay for one night, the cheapest one will cost ten lower grade spirit stones, so except for some local tyrants, most people will take the elevator back to the previous hotel at night to rest, and then come down during the day." ”
Shi Chiyan glanced at the sky and wondered, "There is also day and night here?" ”
"Of course," Yu Lewei smiled, "but there is no sun here, just distinguish day and night according to the time, you will know after a long time, let's go, I'll take you to a place first." ”
