Chapter 62: The Ancient Well of the Temple
The ancient well is fastened with a heavy iron cover, and then locked tightly with a ring-shaped copper hoop.
The iron lid was covered with dust, and a jade talisman that had been eroded by time lay quietly in the dust, exuding brilliance.
The face of the talisman is vaguely engraved with an old man with a Dao bone fairy wind, holding a tripod in one hand and a herb in the other.
Huang Liang shouted in a lost voice: "Shennong Fu!" He was greedy, and involuntarily stepped forward to pick it.
There was a sudden strange "squeak" in his ears, and a black shadow came towards him with two points of green light.
Huang Liang took a half step back, and with a sword flower, he directly split the black shadow in half in the air.
Blood splattered, and a suffocating stench permeated. Through the glow of the fairy sword, I could clearly see that the black shadow was actually a big mouse crawling out of the gutter.
Its hair was messy and thin, but its eyes were green and fierce.
The mouse's slender tail trembled, and he couldn't move anymore, and the thin boy felt that the meat was crispy, and laughed at himself: "The mouse is bigger than the cat, and Lao Tzu is almost so scared that he pees his pants." ”
Huang Liang reminded: "This place is very strange, you should pay more attention. After that, I wanted to step forward and pick up the talisman.
The thin disciple was apprehensive and asked, "Master, this place is terrifying, there won't be any monsters under this ancient well, right?"
Huang Liang reprimanded: "Bastard thing, what is there to be afraid of as a teacher here?" The jade talisman suddenly shone up, and it shook its palm out of the foot.
Huang Liang was more and more surprised, the mana was violently urged, and the thick and snowy paw prints suddenly appeared, and he grabbed the jade talisman and lifted it up.
The jade talisman suddenly let out a loud roar, and the figure on the face of the talisman condensed into a white light and rolled towards Huang Liang, who sneered: "It's just a dying struggle!" As soon as the fairy sword stood up, countless sword flowers trembled, and the flowers slashed down towards the white light.
The jade talisman may have been even more overwhelmed now due to the loss of more spiritual energy, and the white light only lasted for a few breaths, that is, it dissipated into a few wisps of dust along with the jade talisman.
Huang Liang beat his chest, his face was full of pain, and he hummed: "My Shennong Fu!"
As soon as the "horn clicked", the copper ring on the well fell off, leaving only the black iron cover still covering the wellhead.
The mountains and forests were silent, and the temple was so quiet that it was as quiet as the sound of falling needles.
Huang Liang's mind was full of thoughts, and he listened with his head tilted for a long time, and finally said: "The black fog under the well can block the snooping of the gods, and you can't hear the sound of water......"
Before the words fell, I only heard a loud rumble in the depths of the ancient well like thunder, and a black and mushy aura rose to the sky, and the heavy iron cover was torn in half, and the roof of the temple was instantly lifted to pieces.
The two disciples were so frightened that even Huang Liang felt a little frightened.
The three of them retreated to the corner and watched with great calmness, but there was no other abnormality after most of the day.
Huang Liang was at ease and said with a smile: "I think it's because it's been closed for a long time and causes catharsis, don't worry." After speaking, I went to the ancient well to visit, only to see that the well was dark and numb, and I didn't know the depth at all.
Lifting the iron lid and looking at it, Huang Liang commanded: "There is an iron chain hanging down in the well, you two pick it up and take a look, maybe there is really some treasure." ”
The thin disciple snorted: "Master, this Shennong talisman is afraid to suppress evil things, maybe there are really ghosts and monsters down there......"
Huang Liang said angrily: "How can a cultivator be afraid of ghosts? Even so, Shennong Fu can still be suppressed when the aura is almost exhausted, and if there are really evil things, it is also a waste, don't be verbose, hurry up." ”
The two teenagers couldn't resist the master, so they could only step forward and pull the chains up.
The iron chain is extremely thin but extremely tough, and Huang Liang sighed: "It's the iron refining thing of Shouyang Mountain, hehe, this can be regarded as a treasure." Pull it!"
His disciple couldn't resist the urging, and pulled the chain and lifted it up. In the blink of an eye, I mentioned a few zhang, everything was the same as before, and if I mentioned a few zhang, there was no abnormality.
The chains were piled up in the temple, and the ground was piled up to the brim, but there was still no end, and the two of them stared at each other speechlessly.
Huang Liang was a little anxious, and when he wanted to speak, he heard a strange sound from the depths of the ancient well, and Huang Liang said happily: "It's almost there, pull it again!"
Suddenly, I pulled dozens of feet, and when I listened carefully, there was the bubbling sound of water in the well.
Suddenly, the sound of water became louder and louder, as if ten thousand horses were galloping, as if Yue Zhen had a landslide, and the yellow soup in the well was surging upward, and the fishy smell was disgusting.
Huang Liang was shocked and shouted, "It's fierce water! ”
He was about to step on the fairy sword and run away, when another earth-shattering roar resounded in his ears, and a monster burst out of the well.
This monster is like a snake but has nine heads, black scales hanging upside down, sharp teeth and cold, a steel tail is powerful, and its body is dripping with yellow soup.
Huang Liang turned his head to glance in his hurry, and his soul was so shocked that he lost his voice: "Nine Infants!" Then he abandoned the two disciples, and the mana under his feet surged wildly, and he fled away from the temple as fast as a desperate person.
There was a look of disdain in the eyes of the nine baby beasts, and the nine blood basins were noisy and shouting, shouting, there were sad and earnest cries, there were joyful laughter, and even the sound of babies waiting to be fed, children babbling, men scolding, women murmuring, old men sighing, and so on, all kinds of voices roared one after another, intertwined into an indescribable rhythm.
The nine heads of the beasts twisted and stretched, and they spat out rockets, earth spears, water arrows, ice picks, and other mana illusions towards the three of them.
The poor disciple and the two had no power to fight back, and the fireball was burned into green smoke as soon as it collided.
Huang Liang looked back and saw that he was fleeing faster and faster.
The disdain in the eyes of the nine baby beasts was even worse, and the steel tail swung away, chasing the clouds and chasing the lightning.
※
The weeds are blowing, the moon hangs in the sky, the moonlight shines through the branches and leaves in the deep forest, and there are unknown insects chirping under the mottled moon shadow.
A bonfire was lit in the middle of the forest, and the disciples of the Dust Garden sat around the fire, and the whispering sound was intermittent.
Yan Ci watched the tongue of fire spitting out, and shivered for no reason, Du Ruozhou sat next to him and noticed it, and said strangely: "Pee your pants?"
Yan Ci rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I have some heart palpitations inexplicably, I don't know why." ”
Yu Lu sat opposite the bonfire and ordered: "The temperature is low in the middle of the night, everyone should rest as soon as possible, and you can hurry tomorrow." All the disciples claimed yes, and they all rested without mentioning it.
The next morning, the light was faint, the cool breeze was blowing, and the mountains were shrouded in thin smoke, which was poignant and mysterious.
The disciples of Tongchen Yuan drew water by the stream to wash, and Lin Mo moved his muscles and said, "There is still a long way to go, let's start early." Hearing this, everyone wiped their faces a few times, and immediately cleaned up and waited for action.
Lin Mo exchanged several Qingling Jades on the mast and shouted, "Get up!"
The ethereal fairy boat let out a hum, and the sails swayed upwards with the force of the wind, chasing the wind and rushing towards the north.
Shiyan City is hidden in the reckless mountains, where more than 3,000 households are bells and food, quite rich, so this city has become a number of important towns within a radius of thousands of miles.
The reason for this is that the group of beautiful women lives up to its name, and there are a large number of beautiful women who attract many travelers.
Lin Mo slowly stopped the ethereal immortal boat, and the ancient city wall of Shiyan City was already in sight, the city wall was made of cyan feldspar, and the joints were tightly sealed, making the whole city impregnable.
Releasing his thoughts and quietly exploring the city, Lin Mo was surprised and said, "Hey, how can it be an empty city?"
The rest of the people were surprised, and each of them visited, and Qing Ming said: "Everything is in order in the city, but there are quite a few hidden places that can block the exploration of divine thoughts, so it is better to go in and see what is going on." ”
Lin Mo nodded yes, and once again drove the Ethereal Immortal Boat over the city wall and fell into the city.
The city has changed from the rumors, the city full of drunkenness, obscenity and luxury, the city is dead and silent, the walls that have not been repaired for a long time stand alone, and the long bluestone-paved streets are empty.
The pavilions and pavilions are lined up one after another, showing the prosperity, but it is very strange to have a slippery shop on the street and lock the door and close the door.
Yan Ci casually pushed open a delicate restaurant, the store was wiped diligently, and the store was spotless.
The utensils used are neatly placed, and there are sporadic flames in the carbon stove in the kitchen, on which a pot of white fungus lotus seed porridge is still warm.
The three or five bedrooms behind the store are no different, the bedding is messy, as if someone has slept with traces.
Yan Ci couldn't figure it out, everything was good, but these people seemed to have evaporated out of thin air.
The rest of the disciples who went to check on had returned, and the situation was basically the same.
Shiyan City was still quiet, so quiet that there was not even a hint of wind.
Lin Mo pondered for a while and ordered: "This matter is too strange, I'm afraid there is an unknown disaster." The juniors and sisters brought their own two disciples to investigate separately, and if they found an abnormality, they would howl and warn. After speaking, he looked at Qing Ming with an inquiring eye.
Qing Ming looked a little uneasy and said: "Lady Hongwei has been in the red dust for a long time, and her strength is extraordinary, not to mention that Qunfangguan often stays in the monks, if there is really a danger that she and others can't deal with, it is not advisable for us to disperse our strength too much." ”
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment and said, "What should I do according to my sister's wishes?"
Qing Ming said: "It's not in the way to investigate a little slower, the six groups are three groups, Senior Sister Mei Ying will be by my side soon after she advances, Senior Brother Tianlu and Senior Brother Lin can be safe together, Senior Brother Chu and Senior Sister Hua have a strong and soft Taoism, even if they encounter big dangers, they are enough to deal with it." ”
Lin Mo nodded and said, "What Senior Sister said is reasonable, without further ado, let's act according to this plan." ”
Qing Ming advised: "Don't be restless in case of trouble, save your life." When the disciples saw that the teachers were speaking outright, they were also inexplicably apprehensive in their hearts.
Qunfang Temple is located in the north of Shiyan City, which is a place where the group of aromas gathers fat powder. Yan Ci, Han Bing, Du Ruozhou, and Qu Yuyi followed Qing Ming and Mei Ying to launch the escape technique, which came in an instant.
There is a large manor in front of me, Shuimu Qinghua, there is a lotus pond Qiong Palace, and there are rockeries.
Where the winding path lingers, the beautiful small buildings are full of contentment, the breeze blows through the carved window lattice, the indoor light yarn dances, and the rich fragrance of fat powder floats in.
The cups in the warbler's nest are messy, the brocade is messy, and the bees and butterflies are about to come out.
Yan Ci and Du Ruozhou looked impetuous, and their minds were full of emotion and reverie.
Mei Ying said at the right time: "Keep your heart upright, this fat powder is mixed with cloud and rain incense, don't be ugly." ”
Yan Ci's hearts froze, and they couldn't help but blush, Han Bing and Qu Yuyi walked arm in arm, seemingly intimate, and when they heard this, they glanced at each other and snickered.
Qing Ming said: "The scene here is clear at a glance, there is nothing wrong, but the backyard divine thoughts can't be investigated, let's go there directly and have a look." ”
