Lijiang.

The waves are undulating and the water is splashing.

The sycamore raft floated on it, and several times it was almost overturned by the waves, and it looked quite terrifying.

Jiao Peien should have felt panicked and frightened in such an environment, but for some reason he was able to remain calm - just as he also didn't understand why he suddenly made the move to build a raft to cross the river last night.

"Could it be that after signing the roster, although I received the protection and guidance of the Five Manifestation Officers, my behavior and actions were also affected because of this?" Jiao Peien couldn't help but guess, attributing all the current abnormalities to his experience in Huaguang Temple.

The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was possible.

After all, whether it is a god fight or a helper, once the spell is successfully cast, it is difficult for the caster to completely control his behavior, and every move will be intervened and guided by the "invited god".

Jiao Peien was in a complicated mood, and just when his mind was turning, several shouts suddenly came from behind him.

"Stop?"

"Can you control the raft's steering a bit?

"Please stay put!"

Jiao Peien frowned.

When he met the first fishing boat, he could feel that the tourists who shouted at him on the fishing boat at that time were indeed with the mentality of saving people.

But it is interesting that after he refused the aid of the first fishing boat, he actually met several groups of people again in just one hour.

There are tall women driving luxury yachts, middle-aged men driving dilapidated fishing boats, simple and honest Yuan people, and tall foreigners...... At the same time, they all had a common purpose, which was to pull him to their respective ships.

In the face of their invitation, Jiao Peien was silent and chose to ignore them.

Because he knew that there would be "all kinds of accidents" to settle it all for him.

Just like now, with the appearance of those shouting people, he felt that some kind of air flow was slowly pulling away from his body, and then the Li River, which was not calm, began to make bigger waves.

The sound of rushing water.

The sycamore raft resembles leaves scattered in a strong wind.

The shouts behind him immediately disappeared, replaced by screams one after another, vaguely accompanied by the cry for help when he fell into the water.

About five minutes later, the wind and waves gradually subsided, and there was no movement on the Lijiang River except for the echo of the waves, and everything was quiet.

Jiao Peien's expression was calm.

If this is the first time he encounters this situation, his expression may have been a little surprised, but now he is used to it.

In fact, all he cares about now is where the Sycamore raft is going to take him.

Could it be the land I saw when I pressed my handprint?

Jiao Peien's ass suddenly couldn't sit still.

To this day, he still remembers the stench of that land.

As for what is the source of the stench......

He hadn't forgotten that one of the main duties of the Five Manifestation Officers was to slay demons and eliminate demons.

Jiao Peien was both a little nervous and a little excited.

He sat on the raft and continued to drift.

Eventually, for some unknown amount of time, he anchored in a shoal.

Jiao Peien was a little at a loss in the face of the unfamiliar environment.

But soon, the phantom of a sparse jungle appeared in his mind, and in his vision, all the plants and trees in this forest were wrapped with a faint black gas.

Some of the black gas is gradually dissipating and being digested into the pure energy tonic herb itself.

Some of the black gas is growing slowly, constantly eroding the original vitality of the plants and trees.

Jiao Peien perceived these images, and instinctively felt a wave of disgust, and from the bottom of his heart he wanted to expel them completely.

He blessed his soul, as if he had received some kind of calling, and began to chant the treasures of the five manifesting spirit officials.

Suddenly, he felt a great will slowly descending on him, and at the same time, everything in his vision began to change significantly: the flowing aura between heaven and earth, the active vitality of grass, trees, rivers and fish, and even the golden air flow around him......

......

......

A few days later.

Ganglan Village.

Wang Junhui sat on a chair at the door of his temporary residence, looking at the guards surrounding the entrance of the village, and a trace of helplessness rose in his heart.

He was originally a paparazzi, but recently changed careers to become a well-known source on lookout forums.

I have to say that he has mixed much better after changing careers, and has provided quite accurate and important information in events such as the Liushan Phantom and the Divine Wood Illusion, and has obtained a lot of money by selling these news.

He became more and more obsessed with it.

Just a few days ago, when Wang Junhui was collecting and counting recent news, he found a phenomenon worth pondering - that is, the Yulong Mountain Range and the Truncated Mountain Range located in the southwest of the Yuan Kingdom both issued a mountain closure statement not far from each other.

Although the reason for closing the mountain seemed to be dignified, Wang Junhui still smelled a hint of inappropriateness.

So, he immediately bought a plane ticket and traveled thousands of miles to the nearest city to the Truncated Mountain Range, wanting to enter the mountain to investigate carefully.

According to his expectations, the blockade of two huge mountain ranges covering a large area is not a small action, if there is really a cat, then there is definitely hidden news that can be sold for a large price on the lookout forum.

But Wang Junhui never thought that he didn't even see the face of the Jade Dragon Mountain Range and the Truncated Mountain Range, so he passed out without warning in a forest more than ten miles away from the two mountain ranges.

When he woke up again, he found that he was already in Ganglan Village, and there were still a lot of guards around.

At that time, Wang Junhui felt that he was finished for a moment, thinking that his actions these days had been discovered by the organization, and he was now going through the procedure of being killed.

Fortunately, after some inquiry, he finally learned that all of the above was conjecture.

In fact, all the people who live in Ganglan Village have passed out in the nearby mountains and forests, and according to the official statement, they are suspected of being infected with some kind of germ and need to be observed and treated for a certain period of time, and in order to prevent the spread of the germ, everyone must stay in Ganglan Village for isolation.

Wang Junhui was skeptical.

The reason why he believed it was because he did feel very uncomfortable in his body, as if something was parasitic in his body, sucking his vitality and blood, so that he felt sluggish every day.

There are too many reasons why it doesn't work, including many visions he saw with his own eyes some time ago, as well as various speculations and corresponding evidence hyped up by foreign media in recent days - of course, the main reason is that his mobile phone cannot receive a signal.

Wang Junhui felt that this was a deliberate act by the guards guarding the village.

The purpose is obvious, it is to cut off everyone's contact with the outside world, try to avoid the eyes of the outside world, and avoid causing more trouble.

"It's a pity ......" Wang Junhui sighed regretfully, if he hadn't been trapped in this ghost place, he would have been able to make a lot of money from this.

Just when he felt sorry, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the village not far away.

Wang Junhui's eyes froze.

Instead of immediately looking at the source of the sound, he quietly got up and went back to the house, observing, through the window, the movement at the entrance of his village.

"Let us out!"

"Is it possible to be infected with the virus? I'm afraid you're not talking nonsense! These days, you have neither measured our physical signs nor sent professional doctors to treat us, but you have just locked us up, heh, do you think we don't know what the purpose of these actions is?"

"Okay, you don't want to let us out, so let's contact our family, right?"

"No signal, isn't this a thing you did, I warn—"

Before the last sentence was finished, the voice suddenly stopped, Wang Junhui pursed his lips, guessing that the group of fools probably couldn't help but move their hands and feet, and then the guards found an excuse to directly flip over.

He sat back on the edge of the bed and sighed softly, "When will I be able to let him out?"

In the face of this situation, even if he is as calm as him, he will inevitably feel a trace of anxiety at the moment.

Wang Junhui couldn't help but look at the two people on the other side of the bed.

The temporary home can accommodate up to four people.

In addition to him, there are two men who have just moved in and live here, one of whom is also a Taoist priest.

Coincidentally, in the recent Liushan incident, Wang Junhui had a careful understanding of this Taoist priest.

Wang Junhui's eyes flashed with a strange light.

He looked at the Taoist priest who was meditating on his knees, pondered for a moment, and then said, "You are the Taoist of Longshan, right?"

Daoist Yongsan opened his eyes, but did not speak.

Instead, the young man next to him said in some surprise: "Do you know the Taoist?"

"Hehe, I saw a news report by Longshan Dao Chief, suppressing boxers with national arts, it's amazing. Wang Junhui casually gave a reason and did not tell the matter.

The young man smiled, and then the scene fell silent.

"That, how did you get in?" Wang Junhui hurriedly spoke again, trying to provoke the topic, "I came to travel and collect style, but in a forest, I fainted inexplicably, and then they picked it up here." ”

Young man: "Well, we were looking for someone, and then we fainted in the woods too".

At the beginning, the search for Jiao Peien on Wugong Mountain ended in failure.

In the end, the head of Longshan proposed to report the case, and took the initiative to lend a hand to the Jiao family, and they were divided into several groups to search along the banks of the Lijiang River, and the truncated mountain range was at the end of the Lijiang River, where the terrain was steep and mountainous.

Wang Junhui doesn't know the inside story, but in the face of any information source, he will not miss the opportunity to investigate deeply: "Find someone, who to find, why is it missing? I may be able to help." ”

The young man was an honest man, and through Jiao's mother's narration, he had learned about the extraordinariness of his little brother, and suddenly faced with strangers' inquiries about him, and he didn't know where to start for a while.

"If I remember correctly, I saw you the last time I was invited to Ryushan, and at that time, you seemed to be a journalist?" At this moment, the chief of Longshan interrupted the conversation between the two.

Wang Junhui was stunned.

He didn't expect that Daoist Longshan would have an impression of him, and even said his disguised identity last time, and his expression suddenly became a little embarrassed and at a loss: "That...... Well, it's not a journalist, it's just a self-media interviewer. ”

Daoist Longshan was noncommittal, and he didn't pay attention to the other party, but looked at the young man: "It's been a long journey to find your brother in the past few days, and your body should be tired, you have time to talk, it's better to take this opportunity to rest." ”

Wang Junhui couldn't help but look ugly when he saw that the other party was not looking at him squarely.

He didn't say much, but secretly made a note in his heart, and vowed to expose this Taoist priest when he went out - both times he was involved in suspected transcendent events, which had to make people suspicious.

The three were relatively silent.

Time passes.

Wang Junhui ate dinner, continued to stand at the door for a while, and then returned to the bed in the room and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, he was suddenly woken up by a movement, and when he opened his eyes, he found a group of people in the house at some point.

Wait a minute!

Isn't that man Professor Wen who appeared at the same time in the Luoxia Lake incident and the Liushan incident?

Wang Junhui's eyes widened.

He struggled to suppress the emotions in his heart, and closed his eyes again, but his ears stood high.

Wen Shuyun frowned and looked at the idlers next to him who were trying to pretend to be asleep, and immediately gestured to the team members next to him and ordered him to knock people unconscious.

A muffled snort rang out in the room.

Wen Shuyun's brows stretched again, and he turned to look at Fourth Brother Jiao who had woken up, and finally moved his gaze to Longshan Daoist: "See you again." ”

Daoist Yongshan was not overly surprised.

After recognizing Jiao Peien's incident, he examined Liushan and his party again, and combined with the Internet news that he rarely read, the original speculation in his heart became clearer.

At the moment, this scene is not particularly surprising.

"I keep an eye on you, who you are looking for, and the whereabouts of those you are looking for. Wen Shuyun didn't make a detour, and directly threw the bait out, waiting for the other party to take the bait.

Sure enough, Fourth Brother Jiao didn't even bother to ask about the identity of the person in front of him, but hurriedly spoke directly: "Where is my brother?"

"I need to know who the Five Manifestations are. Wen Shuyun revealed his purpose.

Fourth Brother Jiao was a little dazed.

Daoist Longshan interjected at this time: "He doesn't know, I know, I can tell you, but I have one condition, that is, we are allowed to take a look at Jiao Peien, and we must ensure his safety." ”

Wen Shuyun quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart.

Fourth Brother Jiao is a relative of the party, and with Jiao Peien's prestige, it doesn't hurt to tell him, maybe he can use this to sell well.

Daoist Longshan is an outsider, but judging from the words of those scholars and professors, he has contributed at least 40% of the progress of the Daomen research project now, and he is indeed a talent, and he may be able to take this opportunity to completely tie him to death in the special affairs office.

Wen Shuyun finally nodded.

He glanced at Wang Junhui, whispered a few words in the ears of his subordinates, and then walked out of the room with Fourth Brother Jiao and Longshan Dao Chang.

The crowd walked deep into the forest, and after about half an hour, they came to a cliff.

The cliff is very high, and there are already many people on it, all of whom are hurrying back and forth.

Wen Shuyun talked a few words with one of the men with a serious face, and seemed to get permission, so he took the two to the edge of the cliff.

He pointed to the bottom of the cliff as he handed the telescope to the other party.

Daoist Yongshan took the telescope suspiciously.

The round lens magnifies the bottom of the cliff at a glance.

Chong Weidao people, Qiushui female crown, Jiao Peien.

The three of them formed a horn twist, surrounded several black fog clusters, and unfolded the Lei Dan power grid, transformed into five beast shadows, and constantly attacked it.

On the periphery of the triangular circle, there are wild beasts such as mountain deer and white-fronted gibbon monkeys helping each other from afar, either emitting a halo to replenish the strength of the three of them, or stimulating blood qi to extinguish the escaping black mist...... It's a lot of fun.

The only thing that is a little unusual is probably the area where Jiao Peien is located.

The suppression was weakest here, and the Black Mist resisted the most.

The scene here is also the most simple, there is no flame and thunder, only five livestock on the ground, a few lamps, and a few long incense, which does not look like it is encircling the black fog, but like a sacrificial ceremony.

Daoist Longshan's heart suddenly burst out.

He suddenly remembered one thing, today is the twenty-eighth day of September, the birthday of the Five Manifesting Spiritual Officers!
