Chapter 22: Camel Mountain

Dong Junqin and Ah Lu entered the camel mountain at the end of March. At this time, it is the beginning of spring, and although the camel mountain is cold, it is also sunny. It's just that the wind and snow have been blowing for seven or eight months, and the accumulation is still half a leg thick, and there is still some ice, and the two of them are not much easier to walk than in the snow season.

Ariu has short legs, and it is not very difficult to follow. He didn't go far before he complained again: "Dong Junqin, why don't you have the sword? We have to rely on walking? How long will it take to find the Venerable Master if we go on like this?"

Dong Junqin paused in five steps, turned around and pulled her, but it was not too troublesome: "Believe me, in a place like Camel Mountain, it is easier for Edgeworth to get lost." ”

The mountains are covered with snow, and everything you see is white. Not only that, but there is no vegetation or life on the mountain, and even the rocks can only be seen during the two months of summer when the snow melts. Pure is pure, but Edgeworth is in the air, and the mountains and clouds are the same color, so it is impossible to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, let alone find someone.

And Dong Junqin's soul chasing technique is different from soul chasing incense, this technique relies on tracking the aura left by the other party to find the general direction. No matter who you are, as long as you pass by a place, you will leave a breath, and people who are close to each other can judge with a little breath. In Dong Junqin's eyes of the sky, there are still dots of spiritual threads in the snow of Camel Mountain at this time. This method is accurate, but the biggest drawback is that he can't see from a distance, so he has to constantly adjust his direction while walking.

The two of them walked in the snow, maybe everything was too white, Dong Junqin suddenly remembered the black shadow: "By the way, do you know who is going to kill you?"

Ah Lu shrugged: "If I knew that I had already hid back in the ghost market, how could I stay there and be approached." But when it comes to this, I feel strange, does that killer really want to kill me in that very ordinary way? I'm a ghost, it's okay to strangle me, it's okay to stab me, but this body is useless, but I'm still a ghost. I don't think I know him, he probably doesn't know much about me, but why would he kill me in that case?"

Ah Lu's analysis is not unreasonable, Dong Junqin continued along this line of thought: "Could it be that you did something in the yang world to be targeted?"

Ah Lu thought back to the good things he had done in the past six months: "It's nothing special, it's just to help those old ghosts in the ghost market find someone to hook their souls, and send them to reincarnation on time." ”

Dong Junqin heard her describe it like this, and roughly decided in his mind that Ah Lu was doing errands for ghosts on weekdays.

In this case, I don't know if I can find the soul of the head of Bai Yuan through her and ask what happened to the Azure Realm in those days?

The two walked for a while with their own hearts, and Dong Junqin's heavenly eye found that the trace of the spiritual thread was broken.

This shouldn't be, there should always be a direction whether it is in the sky or into the earth, but now it is like disappearing out of thin air.

When Arishi learned of this incident, he proposed again, "Why don't we go to the sky and have a look?" ”

Dong Junqin looked around, and there seemed to be no better way. In desperation, he invited the short sword, but something strange happened, although the short sword was shrouded in his own aura as usual, but it did not change with his fortune.

Dong Junqin, who was puzzled, took out the talisman again, what kind of fire charm and water diversion talisman were all ineffective. He did not give up, raised his hand to make a seal, only to see a ring appear on the snow, but it quickly disappeared, leaving no trace.

"How about trying your gate?" Alu was also eager.

However, it also failed.

The two stood in the snow, looking at each other, and their brains were blank for a while.

How could this be? So the spells were all ineffective, and Dong Junqin felt a panic that told the heavens and the earth not to be spiritual.

After a long silence, Ah Lu spoke, "Shall we go back and see?"

I wanted to return the way I saw the spirit line when I came, but Dong Junqin couldn't see the way he came when he turned around, and he couldn't even see the spirit line left when he walked.

No wonder the elder's soul-chasing incense will be broken, no wonder the Azure disciples can't find a trace, and even more so the world calls this place the Demon Mountain.

Dong Junqin said coldly: "We are lost. ”

Ah Lu was speechless, looking at the sky and the earth in despair, and finally sat down on the spot.

Dong Junqin tried all the spells he could try, and the results were all the same.

Half an hour later, Ah Lu suddenly spoke: "I may have a way. ”

Dong Junqin's eyes lit up: "Miss Alu, please speak." ”

Ah Lu looked at him with disgust: "I said that every time you call me, can you not add the word girl." What if I had been a man when I was alive!"

Dong Junqin is embarrassed, now is not the time to talk about this, right?

"Then Alu, may I ask what you can do to help us get out of the current predicament?" Dong Junqin pondered the wording and asked again.

Alu said: "I thought about it, your spiritual power is working normally, but you just can't use spells. There should be something here that can absorb spells, but not spiritual power. ”

Dong Junqin thought she had a brilliant idea: "I also know this." ”

"That means that it can only interfere with what is emanated, and it cannot affect itself. ”

Dong Junqin asked, "So?"

Ah Lu's eyes lit up: "You just said that this place is called Demon Mountain, because people can't get out when they come in, and if they can't get out, there must be people dead here, as long as people have died, there must be ghosts! You don't make spells invisible to ghosts, but I'm a ghost, I don't need a spell to see it!"

Dong Junqin snorted: "It makes sense, have you seen it since we entered the mountain?"

Hearing that he didn't believe it, Ah Lu stood up and said, "I have a physical body now, and everything I see is through the naked eyes of this mortal fetus, so naturally I don't see it. ”

Dong Junqin heard her words, and had an ominous premonition in his heart: "You...... You're not going to ......"

Ah Lu nodded: "Instead of being trapped here and waiting until the sky is old, it is better to let my soul out of my body and give it a try." ”

Dong Junqin couldn't help frowning, what a brilliant idea was a bad idea at all.

But Ah Lu didn't think so, she patted Dong Junqin and said: "Don't worry, there is its original remnant soul in this body, I will put Cheng Qi's remnant soul in, and it will be no problem to hold on for an hour." ”

The body was as casual as a teapot basin-like container by her, how did Dong Junqin listen to it and panic: "What do you want to do?"

Ah Lu pointed to his neck: "You strangled me, just like that killer." ”

Dong Junqin raised his forehead, he is the young hall master of the royal pharmacist, the people in the rivers and lakes are called the little doctor fairy, and he has saved countless people, and now he is called to kill people in broad daylight?

Seeing that he couldn't accept it for a while, Ah Lu persuaded: "It is most convenient and safest to strangle me, and I won't see blood without destroying the original body." It's been two hours since I entered the mountain, do you still want to find your master? ”

Dong Junqin really doesn't know what to say about her, the remnant soul is remnant, is the heart and eye also missing?

Ah Lu didn't wait, took his hands and put them around his neck: "Hurry up, when my soul is out of the body, you will feel a yin wind." Then I will look at my body on my back and follow the yin wind. Remember to wrap your coat tightly, it may really freeze to death without a soul. ”

Dong Junqin stared at his hands, and Ah Lu pulled them, as if they were devils from hell, making him anxious.

In his anxiety, he somehow thought of Mu Jifeng and the feeling he felt when he killed the demon for the first time, when the long sword pierced the demon's body, and he was confused and uneasy for a long time. Dong Junqin had no blessing to kill demons, he didn't understand it at the time, but now he seems to have some experience.

Ah Lu found that his hands were shaking, and he had no choice but to let go of a hand to cover his eyes: "Hurry up!"

When the tiger's mouth was stuck in his neck, Ah Lu's originally cool skin was a little hot, but as the strength of his hand increased, he felt the blood flowing and the spiritual power flowing. A long-lost feeling of suffocation spread in Dong Junqin's chest, as if it was himself who was pinched, and it was himself who was out of his body.

It wasn't until Ah Lu's body fell into his arms that Dong Junqin opened his eyes violently and breathed rapidly.

When Allu confessed his identity before, to be honest, Dong Junqin didn't have any waves in his heart. Hell, it's not like he hasn't encountered it. However, at this moment, holding a person with no breath and pulse, a strange feeling swept through his body.

Dong Junqin picked up Ah Lu's body in a tangled way, and cautiously called out to the air: "Ah Lu?

There was no change around, no wind blowing and no ghost footprints. Dong Junqin walked slightly, and suddenly felt a chill on the side of his head, like a wind blowing in a cemetery.

Is this a hint given by Ah Lu? Dong Junqin was puzzled, and settled down to feel it carefully, as if it was Ah Lu.

Yin Feng took Dong Junqin in an unknown direction. This snow-capped mountain is like a piece of white silk blindfolded by people, and it is like a white labyrinth, which makes people confused.

Dong Junqin walked and walked, and the air around him seemed to have changed. He stopped and said into the air, "Alu, is that you? ”

The yin wind did not stay long, urging Dong Junqin to continue to walk forward. However, after a few steps, the ankles in the snow tightened, as if they were caught by something, and then the whole person fell into the snow. The "Ah Lu" on his back rolled off, and Dong Junqin hurriedly crawled to help, but as soon as his foot was forced, he was violently dragged back.

Fortunately, Dong Junqin reacted quickly, and grabbed the hand of "Ah Lu" with a flutter of his upper body, and then the two of them were dragged away by this force. After a few bumps and a loss of strength behind him, Dong Junqin was caught off guard, and he didn't even have time to scream, so he fell into a hole.

There was also a thick layer of snow in the hole, and although the whole person rolled uncontrollably, it did not hurt the muscles and bones. After Dong Junqin determined the end, he immediately got up and went to find "Ah Lu". Fortunately, her coat was tightly wrapped, and she was lying on the ground stiffly like a huge silkworm chrysalis, unharmed.
