Chapter Eighty-Six: Spells
It's been two days since Chang Jue left Hui Yu City.
The three of them inquired around that day, and after some descriptions, there were many passers-by who said that they had seen a priest with an extraordinary temperament, followed by this little girl.
"That man dressed as a priest is eye-catching, several of our stall owners have seen it, and we can't even pay attention if we don't want to!
"Little girl, she didn't look very happy, she seemed to be sick or something, and her face was not good! ”
"I know, that alchemist also bought a carriage, as if he was going to travel far away. ”
As for the city gate, there is only one record of the entry of the alchemist, but there is no one who left the city, and there is no similar carriage out of the city.
Fan Xiaotan: "There is only this one, it must be the same person! Maybe they didn't leave from here!"
Bai Yu was very angry: "Sister Xiaowu must have been forced by that stinky monk to follow him!"
Chang Jue pondered for a long time before he said, "The stall owners said that it was noon during the day when they saw them, and you said that it was already afternoon when you saw people in the priest's hall. ”
Bai Yu: "That's right...... That is to say, the two of them went back to the priests' hall later, so why did they go back to the priests' temple?"
"Is it possible to ......" Fan Xiaotan glanced at him and said, "They are there to kill, I mean, to kill Lu Li." ”
Chang never answered, because he also thought this in his heart, Ah Wu asked that Fang Shi to kill Lu Li, but he killed so many people, so Ah Wu was so uncomfortable.
I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me.
The reason why she did that was nothing more than for herself. Chang Jue's heart hurt again, but his wound had obviously healed.
When Fan Xiaotan saw him like this, he knew that he knew what he meant very well, and said again: "Fang Shi and the like, practice Taoism, pay attention to correcting their bodies, treat everyone equally, and only if you ask for something, you can take it." I think Phantom Wu should have exchanged with him on some terms, so that Fang Shi will ...... Ahem, I mean Phantom Wu is by that person's side, there shouldn't be any danger, that person must also do something for Phantom Wu to help him, otherwise he won't take her away, and help her do things. ”
No matter how sluggish Bai Yu is, he understands the relief in these words, Bai Yu glanced at her, and said strangely in his heart: Isn't this girl stimulated by something, and she can comfort others?
"Where else can I leave Hui Yu?" asked Chang Jue.
Fan Xiaotan: "Then you can only go from the north, there is no checkpoint over there, because no one will come in that direction." ”
"Why?"
"In that direction, all the way to the north, there is no human habit, because there is the realm of the dead. ”
It was raining lightly, not much, but it had been raining for a whole day.
The potholed mud was soaked by the rain, and the shoes were soaked. In fact, you can resist water with a trick, but Chang Jue obviously didn't do this.
The rain drenched his hair, and the strands of hair on his forehead stuck to his face, and the rain flowed down his neck and then into his collar in small streams, and it was extremely cold.
He stared at the road for a moment, trying to distinguish the marks of ruts as much as possible.
Pinching the trick to resist the water, he can't concentrate so much on looking at the traces, even if it is some subtle traces, he can't miss it.
And he found that stepping into this so-called "realm of the dead", it was not as easy as usual to urge spiritual power.
The spiritual power is still flowing in the body, but it is especially consuming to trigger it. It doesn't matter, it's just a return to the way mortals used to be.
A long time ago, he secretly swore to himself, even if it was flesh and blood, he would protect the illusion thoroughly. He has to go to the places where he can't go.
When I reached a mountain, the rut marks disappeared, and I couldn't find a trace of it.
Chang Jue stood in front of the mountain, looking up at the mountain.
The mountain is not high, round like an upside-down bowl, or like a tomb bag enlarged a hundred times.
At this time, the mountain had been scorched black by lightning and the earth was cracked, and its shape could only be roughly distinguished.
The tall and low trees on the mountain were scorched, and weeds and shrubs were burned. If it weren't for this rain, I'm afraid the mountain would still be on fire.
Chang Jue climbed up the hill and found among the crooked remnants of a tree that looked to have been cut the most, with roots that stretched for several feet, and looked to be at least 100 years old.
The tall trunks of the trees had been split into several pieces and scattered around, and they were crouching on the ground, rummaging through the charcoal-like pieces of wood.
"Don't hide. He still crouched on the ground, as if speaking to the void.
A figure stood up from under the stump of a tree that had been cut off not far away, and coughed as if to embolden himself.
"Go back, don't follow me. ”
"How can I follow you?" That person was Fan Xiaotan, after Chang Jue left Huiyu to the north, it took about half a day for Fan Xiaotan to follow, "I was just curious about this place, so I came over to take a look." ”
"Didn't you say that entering this place means entering the door of death, and there is no one alive?" Chang Jue still didn't look up, but he seemed to have found something, and picked up a piece of broken wood in his hand to look at it carefully.
"Yes, yes, but I haven't heard from the elders, who knows what it looks like?" but it does look like no one......" Fan Xiaotan said alone, not getting any response, so he stopped talking.
"What are you looking at?" she had long since gotten used to it, but she wasn't embarrassed.
Chang Jue's hand was a black wooden block, about the length of a forearm, Fan Xiaotan looked at it, and didn't feel any different.
"There's a spell here. Chang Jue replied.
"Charms?"
"If you don't practice the art of the aisle systematically, you can't see it. ”
"Oh," Fan Xiaotan is a strong character, if she changes to someone else, she will have to fight for a few words, but after changing to a long time, she actually feels that she accepts it so generally, "Then what kind of spell is this?"
"I don't know. After thinking for a moment, he was sure that he had never seen this curse, "However, I guess it has something to do with the damnation that has fallen here." ”
"Damnation?"
"In such a big place, only this one mountain has been struck by such heavy lightning, at least more than 80 times. ”
When Fan Xiaotan heard this, he looked around before he said, "Yes, I just said how I had a strange feeling, but I couldn't say it." ”
"This shows that there is something here to draw lightning here, and the lightning strikes are concentrated in this place, I think it is probably the effect of this spell. ”
Fan Xiaotan suddenly realized: "If you don't lead it, Lei will chase you and fight, and more than eighty will be split into ashes." However, this spell is so powerful, it can actually lead the thunder tribulation to a tree, isn't this just a way to hide from heaven? It must be a very powerful person who did it, right?"
Chang Jue threw away the stones, frowning silently. Obviously, he already has a candidate in mind, who is that alchemist?
"Do you still want to go north?" Fan Xiaotan grabbed him, regardless of whether he liked it or not, and his tone was a little anxious: "This is just the entrance, that's it...... It's gloomy, and you don't know what you'll encounter if you go any further, maybe it's ice and snow, maybe it's a volcano, or maybe it's ...... In short, it's just hard to do. ”
Chang Jue returned to his original place, looking around, as if looking for something.
"You can't find any traces to trace, there's no direction to go in any further, it's just a waste of time!" Fan Xiaotan saw that he didn't answer, and walked directly in front of him, her height was shorter than Phantom Wu, and she could only tilt her head and look directly into her eyes, "Let me tell you, the realm of the dead is a place that no one cares about, and there are demons and monsters in the Six Realms that cannot be accommodated, such as resentful ghosts who can't be reincarnated if their grievances don't disappear, and ghouls who don't have their own thoughts but have lost their masters, or remnant souls that are not in the book of life and death, etc., will be banished to this place, and no one knows how this place came to be, and when it existed......"
"You understand when I say this, this is some monsters that you can't think of, maybe the monsters who have survived for hundreds of millions of years live, once you get in, it's hard to come out again! You also feel it, the yin energy in this place is so strong, and the resentment is even heavier than the Yin Si Difu, which means that those things are telling you that this is their territory, and the more you go inside, the more the spiritual power is suppressed, even to the point where you can't make it possible to come at all, and then you can only be slaughtered by others? A little ghost will also bite you to death!"
Fan Xiaotan finished speaking without stopping, and then stared at Chang Jue deadly, wanting to see a hesitant look on his face.
"I know. He said only those three words, and then turned and walked away.
Seeing him leave directly, Fan Xiaotan was stunned: "You, aren't you looking for it?"
"Find. "But before I go in, I'll have to get someone to get something." ”
"I'll go with you!" Fan Xiaotan said without thinking.
"Bai Yu is so busy, he can only stay in the clan, and now that the priest's hall has suffered such a catastrophe, are you still so leisurely?" Although Chang Jue's words did not directly drive her away, he also expressed the meaning of "You should do your own thing".
Fan Xiaotan looked indifferent: "I'm different from Bai Yu, Lu Li is dead, Qin Yuan is not a climate, this priest's position is only afraid to return to the hands of the Double-Eyed Bird, of course he can't run away from the successor." But I'm different, Lu Li died, and our two sisters were free. Sister, I've found it too, just do something she can do. I'm just an idler!"
Fan Xiaotan was like a sparrow chattering around Changjue: "I don't care! I just want to follow you, and if you don't allow me, I will follow! Don't worry, I can still distinguish the important ones, and I won't make trouble." And I can also contribute, if Phantom Wu dies, who else will I go with to rob you?"
Chang Jue stopped and glanced at her leisurely: "I, I mean, I also want to save people, it's better to have one more person......"
The long footsteps did not stop, Fan Xiaotan could only chase after her quickly, and when she thought that she would not get a response, she made up her mind to follow with a dead face, and heard a sentence from the person in front of her: "Whatever you want, if you die, it's none of my business." ”
