Chapter 4: Heizhiling

When the 'ear symbol' is formed in the water, it will not disperse, no matter how rough the waves are.

In the time of his repeated waves, a boat floated on the opposite shore. The boat was not large, with a stout old man propped up with a bamboo pole at the bow and a young woman rocking the boat behind it.

There were three passengers on board, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the ferry.

After the three passengers got off the boat and left, the boat was tied up and did not intend to cross the shore again. Tu Yuan stepped forward to ask, and the old man told Tu Yuan that they would not leave the boat again until they had eaten, and that there was a time period for them to sail, because everyone who was going to cross the river in the vicinity would come at that time.

Although there are not many people crossing the river every day, there are always a few.

Tu Yuan didn't say anything, just waited under the tree next to him. He was still practicing talismans on the river there.

He was practicing, and suddenly, the boat girl came to his side, watched him practice talismans on the river, and said with a face full of surprise: "Are you a spiritual cultivator?"

The names of monks are different in different places, ten miles of different winds, and hundreds of miles of different customs. Some are called spiritualists, some are called monks or mages, and some are called witches or priests, all of which refer to practitioners.

The woman did not look very old, but her skin was rough because she was often walking on the river, and she was exposed to the wind and rain.

Tu Yuan nodded.

She saw that Tu Yuan didn't seem to be that kind of indifferent spiritual cultivator, and said happily: "I picked up a wooden talisman a few days ago, can you help me see what kind of talisman it is?"

"I'll take a look?" Tu Yuan said.

She looked at Tu Yuan carefully, and then took out a palm-sized piece of wood from her arms.

When she took out the wooden talisman, Tu Yuan instantly knew that it was a talisman that had no spiritual power to condense. But it is also a talisman that has not been used, and if it is used, this piece of wooden talisman will be damaged due to the agitation of spiritual power.

The spiritual power on the wooden talisman should dissipate naturally.

"This should be a peachwood evil talisman, but the spiritual power on it has been dispersed, and the rune pattern is still complete. Tu Yuan said.

"Then can't this talisman be used?" the woman said disappointedly, and Tu Yuan guessed that she might have seen it more than just herself.

"It stands to reason that it can't be used, but your evil talisman is a little special, you are a Pixiu evil talisman, you can worship it with incense day and night, and after a year or two, this evil talisman can still be used again. Tu Yuan said.

"Really?" the woman asked, somewhat surprised.

"Yes. Tu Yuan returned the peach wood talisman to her.

She was pleasantly surprised, a useful talisman that was of great value to her.

Of course, practitioners don't do this kind of practice, and not all of them can do it.

The woman happily went back and told her father that her father had not come to Tu Yuan's side. However, when he crossed the river later, he thanked Tu Yuan and did not accept Tu Yuan's silver money for crossing the river.

That was the only way they could be thankful.

Gold and silver are still the currency of this world, because practitioners use a lot of gold and silver to refine tools or refine some objects. But each big city will have its own coins, and since this is still part of the sphere of influence of the Valley of the Shadows, although it is on the edge, the coins of Canghe City are also useful here.

After crossing the river, it is not far from Heizhiling.

The people on duty there are not only guarding a 300-year-old black mushroom on the mountain, but also guarding against those who are scattered on this mountain to collect medicine and black mushroom.

When he came to the foot of Heizhiling Mountain, he saw a mountain range, took out a map to compare, and found the mountain marked as Heizhiling on the map, and found that Heizhiling was the highest mountain compared to other mountains.

He passed through a tribe in the mountain pass, the tribe is called the Zhixian tribe, and legend has it that there was a Zhixian on this black Zhiling Mountain, and this tribe was protected by the Zhixian at that time, so he named himself the Zhixian tribe. It's just that it is said that Na Zhixian was later killed and refined into a furnace of elixir.

He went directly into the mountain, there was a path up the mountain, walked through the gentle slope at the foot of the mountain, and when he arrived at the mountain pass where he really wanted to go up, he saw a person-high stele standing there.

Tu Yuan stood in front of the stone and did not go up again.

Look closely at the stele.

The stele is irregular, and there are two vertical characters on it - Yin Soul Valley, Heizhi Ridge.

In addition to these words, the lines along the stone are the runes on the green sand painting, and those who don't know think that it is the moss growing on the stone.

This kind of green sand is specially formulated and used to set up talisman arrays, which can penetrate into the stone and never fade.

This mountain has a rune array, and the difference between the rune array and the magic circle is that the rune array is a formation formed by completely using the rune and combining the momentum of the mountains and rivers. The magic circle is quickly arranged by using magic weapons, of course, it can also be combined with the momentum of heaven and earth, combined with the talisman, and finally form a large array, which is like this for each sect's mountain protection array.

The Great Array of Guarding the Valley of the Yin Soul is called the Yin Flame Array, which is made by combining the fissure in the Yin Soul Valley.

Tu Yuan came to the side of the stone, and when he raised his hand, there was already a faint aura on his hand, and then he gently patted it three times in a row on the stone tablet.

As he clapped, the sound of his clapping echoed throughout the mountain. Obviously, the sound of his clap was very small, but there was an echo throughout the mountain.

In a few moments, one came down from the mountain.

In Tu Yuan's eyes, this was a person who looked to be about thirty years old, but he had already learned about this Gu Zhen when he came out of the Yin Soul Valley.

The Yin Soul Valley, which he entered at the age of fifteen, was an inner disciple, and once had a chance to almost become a family lineage. It has been forty years of cultivation now, and it is the cultivation of the peak of concentrating, and it can be planted into the Dao fire at any time. Ten years ago, he exchanged his merits from the valley for a 'Yin Evil Spiritual Fire', and after so many years, I don't know if he has succeeded in planting a fire.

Looking closely at this person who looked like he was in the prime of life, Tu Yuan found that the corners of his eyes actually had faint traces left by the years.

"Senior Brother Tu?"

Gu Zhen had already said with a smile before he got closer: "You can be regarded as coming, come on, come on, follow me up the mountain." ”

As he spoke, he led Tu Yuan up the mountain.

Tu Yuan naturally reported his name again, which was regarded as a courtesy, although he was a personal heir, but the other party could be regarded as an elder on the road of cultivation, a person who had been in the business for more than 40 years.

"This long lonely mountain alone days can be regarded as the end, wait a while to hand over this Heizhiling to you, junior brother, I will leave and go back to the valley, I haven't returned to the valley for a long time, I don't know what changes can be made in the valley, such as junior brother, how many more young and handsome people like you?......"

Gu Zhen was very enthusiastic all the way and was very happy to see Tu Yuan's arrival.

Tu Yuan's whole person relaxed, he was not a person who was good at taking the initiative to chat with people, but if he came here, he would also feel very uncomfortable if he said some blunt polite words between the two of them.

Along the way, Gu Zhen was asking Tu Yuan about some things in the Yin Soul Valley, which was also mixed with some personal things about Tu Yuan, such as where he was from, when he entered the valley, what method he cultivated, what kind of talisman he liked the most, and so on.

When Tu Yuan followed Gu Zhen to a strange building built on the mountainside, Gu Zhen said: Since you are here today, let's hand over the task of guarding now. ”

As he spoke, he led the way in front and took Tu Yuan directly to the building.

In the courtyard behind the view of the building, Tu Yuan saw a black mushroom, this is a three-branch black mushroom, more than 300 years old, although the black mushroom is not a natural treasure, but the 300-year-old black mushroom is naturally extremely precious, really know that there is a 300-year-old black mushroom in the black mushroom ridge There are not many, and the black mushroom is widely used, can be used in many pills for the spread of medicine.

A mountain that can grow black shiba from time to time is precious.

The whole black zhi is about the size of a washing wooden basin, divided into three branches, each branch is layered, divided into three layers, a total of nine layers, a closer look is not pure black, but black with red, belonging to the kind of dark red, beautiful.

At the root of the black shiba was a black stone of black wood, and in the distance was a strange rock, and the nearby weeds were cleaned up.

"This one is the three-hundred-year-old black mushroom that I am cared for, Senior Brother Tu, take a look, if there is nothing wrong, I will go back to the valley. ”

Tu Yuan listened, but his eyes were looking at the black zhi plant, and found that the strange stones next to him were all painted with runes, and he knew that this was part of the black zhi ridge rune array.

In fact, the handover is very simple, as long as you are sure that there is no problem with this three-hundred-year-old black mushroom, then it can be regarded as a smooth handover, and the other parts are trivial.

Originally, when he didn't see Tu Yuan, Gu Zhen was originally very worried, but after seeing Tu Yuan and talking for a while, he felt a lot more relieved. In his opinion, there is nothing special about this Tu Yuan in front of him, although he is a personal disciple, but it is not good to be accepted by Qu Cheng of Baicao Hall as a personal inheritance.

Along the way, he asked a lot of questions, and found that this Tu Yuan was not vigilant, and nothing he had learned seemed to be able to break the illusion of the runes he had set up very well.

"Well, good. Tu Yuan replied, and he took out a quaint copper bell from his arms.

Gu Zhen suddenly had a bad premonition.

It was the exorcism bell, and he knew that it was the exorcism bell as soon as he looked at the runes on the copper bell, but this was used for exorcism.

He knows that some people can do this by using the exorcism bell all year round, but this is not something that others can teach, not something that the master can teach, many things are led by the master into the door, and the practice is in the individual, whether you can understand some wonderful uses more deeply, it all depends on the individual.

Could he?

Gu Zhen was a little unconvinced.

Tu Yuanchao Gu Zhen smiled and didn't explain anything.

The exorcism bell in his hand glowed with spiritual light and shook it gently.

"Ding......

Tu Yuan's divine sense spread with the ringing.
