Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Mountain God, the Mountain Ghost

"There are many beautiful peaks in Shuzhong, stretching into the clouds!"

"You can chant loudly, and you can meet the north wind!"

A group of four people, three men and one woman, are slowly walking towards Wuling.

The first person, dressed in a green shirt and green robe, is capable and has a cold face, and if there is a star looming in his eyes, it attracts people's attention.

What's even more strange is that the snakes, insects, rats and ants of Wuling on weekdays, the locals have to coat their whole body with heavy realgar before entering the mountain, and then hold a long pole, and every time they take two steps, they must hit the ground in front of them hard, so as to prevent snakes from living here and hurting people.

But this person walked forward at will, without the slightest protection on his body, and his steps were like flying, and there was no nervous look at all.

If there were those generations who lived here, the discerning old mountaineers would have been shocked when they saw this scene.

All because of the layers of barren grass, countless poisonous insects and fierce snakes are running out of the dormant cave with the speed of the green-robed man's progress, and they do not break out and hurt people, but run in all directions as if they have seen a natural enemy.

The green-robed man's expression was free, and he didn't pay attention to the non-stop "rustling" sound, and at first glance, it didn't look like he was walking in a poisonous insect nest, but a shepherd grazing.

To say, there is no shortage of strange things in this Wuling recently.

Roughly speaking, it is said that there are three monsters in the mountains in the new year.

The first monster, it belongs to the mountain snake, different from others, always have a highly poisonous and do not like to live alone, often encounter thirty or fifty living together in a snake nest, mountain farmers and hunters, every year there are accidentally stepping into the snake nest and being bitten by a group of snakes, poison to death.

This second strange is that it is rumored that there is a mountain god in the mountain, every time on the night of the full moon, thousands of beasts in the mountain will spontaneously gather to a wooden building hidden in the dense fog and narrow valley in the mountain, when the red dragon raised by the mountain god chooses to devour the full stomach at will, it will collectively kneel down and worship the wooden roof where the mountain god lives, and thank you for the grace of not killing.

The third monster is a mountain ghost, it is rumored that since the beginning of the previous few months, every evening there will be a figure standing at the intersection of the barren mountain, and a Taoist passes by, saying that this figure is a mountain ghost raised by the mountain god.

This statement convinced the surrounding residents completely.

Because, there have long been villagers who have been lost in the deep mountains and said to the big guy that they have seen the mountain god after they came back.

"That mountain god, it's a young woman, she looks so good-looking, like a fairy descending to earth..."

Zhou Laosan is an old bachelor in a village in the corner of Wuling, and when he usually sees someone's eldest girl and little daughter-in-law passing by, he can't wait to put his eyes into someone's pants.

But everyone in the village remembered that when he mentioned the good-looking young woman mountain god, the admiring gaze in his eyes washed away all the obscene and obscene meanings in the past.

There are also good things to open their mouths and shout Zhou Laosan: "The mountain god is so beautiful, why don't you marry back and cover the quilt?

As soon as the man's voice fell, there was a cry of pain, and it turned out that Zhou Laosan suddenly burst out, rounded his arm and slapped the man's mouth.

"Fuck your mother's ass! You're an egg, dare you say that about the mountain god girl!"

"Watch out for her old man to release that big red dragon and bite off your dog's head!"

Zhou Laosan, who has always been cowardly and lustful, turned red that day, staring at the eyes of the person who spoke, and a mouthful of yellow teeth bared outward, as if he was ready to devour the person who blasphemed the mountain god alive at any time.

It was the first time I saw Zhou Laosan's fierce look, and all the people around him were frightened, and no one dared to stop it.

Only, when the man saw that he had lost face, he actually let an old bachelor in his fifties slap his mouth in public, but he was discouraged for a while and didn't dare to go against Zhou Laosan, so he had to go home scolding.

"Zhou Laosan, you are blinded by stealing lard, you wait, Lao Tzu will clean you up another day, so that you dare to go crazy with Lao Tzu with the mother-in-law who doesn't know if she is a person or a ghost!"

By the time everyone hugged Zhou Laosan, who was about to rush over desperately, the man had already returned home and closed the door.

This closure is a month.

There were not many people in the mountain village, but in a famine year, more than a dozen families in the village were trying to reclaim more land and carry more water, and they all had no leisure to visit each other and talk about inconsequential household matters.

And when the rain gradually and the drought passed, the villagers sat together for a long time and told a joke about the length of the east and the shortness of the west.

Suddenly, I don't know who mentioned it, saying, 'I haven't seen Zhou Laosan and Wang Er for a long time.' ’

Everyone was shocked, and I recalled it with one mouth.

It seems that since the two had a conflict because of the mountain god that day, they have not seen these two people again.

At the moment, finally in a hurry, a villager got up, everyone was bored after dinner, and they joined the team one after another, so they went to Wang Zhou's family first.

I pushed open the door and saw that Zhou Laosan's house was quickly tidy, as if it had just been cleaned up, but the stove was already cold, and it was obvious that it hadn't been fired for a long time.

Someone with sharp eyes found a piece of gold lace letterhead from the head of the bed.

The old village chief, who had a very high prestige in the village, was illiterate, so he called his son, who had studied in a private school for several years and knew a few words, to come over.

Then, the story of the mountain god leaving a book and receiving believers into the temple to serve spread in the villages.

The fate is different from that of the missing Zhou Laosan.

On that day, Wang Er, who had a conflict with Zhou Laosan and cursed the mountain god, was found dead in his home on the same day.

It was when everyone came out of Zhou Laosan's house that someone proposed to go to Wang Er's house to check it out, but as soon as they climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard, they smelled a strong smell.

At the head of the bed, the scarlet-stained cloth was lifted, and the air smelled of corpses rotting.

It smelled like carrion that hunters had put in the wilderness to hunt jackals, and it smelled fishy.

Then, everyone found that Wang Er was lying on his clothes, as if he had been hugged by some behemoth, his bones were broken inch by inch, his face was pale, and he died.

recalled what Wang Er and Zhou Laosan said when they were arguing that day, and then remembered the golden letter paper left in the room after Zhou Laosan disappeared.

Needless to say, what happened is needless to say.

It must be the mountain god who sent the red dragon to take Zhou Laosan back to the temple to practice.

By the way, he also killed Wang Er, who dared to speak ill of him.

This is the second strange thing about the mountain god recently.

This third monster, the mountain ghost, is even more difficult to tell.

After all, everyone had heard that the mountain god in the Wuling Mountains was a young woman, and her appearance was extremely sweet and lovely.

There is no one in these four who can match such a character.

What's more, the mountain god who has already cultivated to a deep level?

Therefore, the only way is to detain a wandering spirit here and help him practice and open his mind, so that he can become a good match for the mountain god Niangniang.

This also explains why someone can always bump into the slender figure wearing a black and white mask while hiking, and always learn the posture and manners of passers-by, which must be the beginning of his senses, so as to cultivate his human body faster.

And the mountain people in the surrounding villages also took care of the mountain god's blessing of the village's smooth face, and carefully taught this mountain ghost who was already regarded as the lady of the mountain god to suppress the village some actions, wishing him early success in his cultivation.

......

"Is it fun?"

One day, when the man wearing a mask and being called a mountain ghost by the mountain people was sitting on the roof of the hut, looking at the moon in a daze, the girl of the 'mountain god' in a long colorful dress sat down behind him and asked softly.

"Play?", perhaps because of the mask, the man's voice sounded slightly dull, and he couldn't hear a trace of tone in it.

Obviously, there is some confusion about the meaning of this word.

Stunned for a moment, the woman in the colored skirt sighed slightly and stopped talking.

On the side, the coiled red snake also lowered its head slightly, constantly swallowing the core.

I don't know, this cultivation has been successful, and the spiritual wisdom has been initially opened, what is the descendant of the Zhen Clan Divine Beast who ranks third in the Wu Clan is thinking.

For a moment, the air was so quiet that you could hear the moon sliding across the sky.

......

"Hmm..."

At the foot of the mountain, the green-robed man paused slightly, and the speed of the four of them was finally slowed down.

Fortunately, the four of them have their own art careers, and even the little Taoist Bai Yujing temporarily stopped suppressing his own cultivation in order not to drag others down.

Gradually entering the realm of immortals, he has the highest cultivation in the team of four.

Even, it is one line higher than the emperor who has already stepped into the immortal path in half a step.

If you say who is the most difficult among the four at this time, it is the poisonous boy who is leading the way along the way.

It's only been half a day, and the poisonous boy's face has turned a little grayer.

At this time, if you look at it, it looks like a ghoul crawling out of the Nine Netherworlds, and there is no blood at all.

This is obviously not a good thing for the poisonous son who has been praised by the current clan lord of the Tang Sect since he was a child and is destined to become the 'Kyushu Poison Lord' in the future...

Fortunately, the poisonous boy doesn't seem to care much about this.

Since you can't die for a while.

Not to mention that he was willing...

Well, there's nothing to worry about.

"This is the wall. Taking a slight breath and wiping away the fine beads of sweat from the corners of his forehead, the poisonous boy glanced down at the snow scene in front of him, and said to the three people behind him with some weakness.

The three of them looked at Tang Jue's line of sight.

Just one glance, I got goosebumps.

I saw that countless poisonous insects, rats and ants were gathering together in front of me, squeezing and pressing, leaving no space for each other.

Even, some poisonous insects only saw that they were fighting because of the territorial dispute, and the minions and teeth were torn and rolled around the poisonous insects in one place.

In the air, the rich and tangy smell of fishy smell makes people's hearts tremble.

For a while, I saw hundreds of black balls rolling around between countless poisonous insects and poisonous seas, and they were all battlefields where poisonous insects devoured each other.

Women are most afraid of snakes, insects, rats and ants.

At this time, Miss Qin Yao had already hidden behind the little Taoist.

A pair of slender white hands tightly held the little Taoist's arm, which had a different scenery.

But if you look closely, it is not difficult to see that Miss Qin's eyes are hidden in her daughter's thoughts.

If you want to say that the little Taoist priest is not really an ignorant and incomprehensible person.

No, a hand crept up to the small white hand that was between his arms.

Ten fingers interlocked, and I didn't realize that my heartbeat was a little faster.

"After this incident, there will be a few giant Gu in this place. Different from the three people who were unwell behind him, Tang Jue stared at the scene in front of him but his eyes were shining, "The world says that my Shuzhou Tang Sect is the best at using poison, killing people regardless of right or wrong, and cultivating poisonous skills to the highest depths, piercing bones are full of blood darts, rainstorms, pear blossoms and thunders break the formation, snatching souls and chasing lives through the heart, and there are thousands of clever plans." ”

Between the words, there is a bit of pride.

In this world, the poison is on the way, and Kyushu is not out of the Tang Sect of Great Xia.

Apparently, quite excited.

After a long time, I heard the poisonous boy mutter: "However, the beings of Kyushu have forgotten that in ancient times, the former ancestor of our clan was just one of the many servants of the clan that can only be seen in legends today..."

"Go in first, let these beasts fight each other here, and when you come down the mountain later, you can harvest. ”

Turning their heads, Tang Absolute and the three of them said softly.

When the words fell, he turned to look at the insect tide in front of him, and there were words in his mouth, like some strange language.

"This is the unique 'Insect Control Sutra' of the Tang Sect!" Seeing that the little Taoist priest and Qin Yao were puzzled, the emperor prince explained with a chuckle: "Cultivating to the highest depths can control hundreds of insects in the world." ”

"According to legend in the rivers and lakes, this language was passed down from the time when the two ancient lich clans fought each other, and it could trend thousands of poisonous insects to go crazy, fight each other, and devour each other, thus leaving the last ten thousand Gu worm mother among the thousands of poisonous insects..."

"According to rumors, the Tang Sect Inner Dictionary records that this is only the first step in refining Gu God. ”

The little Taoist Bai Yujing and Qin Yao found that as soon as Di Jun's words came out, Tang Jue, who had been standing in front of everyone, suddenly looked back at Di Jun, and the corners of his lips outlined a trace of arc, "Du Yanxi and Yimai have the method of inheriting his heart, and they are good at knowing the affairs of the world, it seems that what he said is true..."

The emperor shrugged his shoulders and was about to speak.

Hearing that, the poisonous prince asked with a smile: "Does the emperor know what about the second step?"
