Chapter 144: The Fountain of Bliss
Everyone was worried that they would be attacked again when they met the sword-wielding man, so they chose to walk, followed Zhang Xiao for a long time, and finally walked out of the mountains and forests, and came to a barren mountain land, where the mountains and forests seemed to be drawn a line, one side of the jungle was dense, and the other side was not grassy, as Jiang Qizi said, it should be to the headless mountain. [Ran^Text^Library] []
But what makes everyone feel strange is that there is no miasma at all, and the surroundings are also very peaceful, except for the barren land, there is no abnormal place.
The group continued to walk up, looking at the scene below, and Xia Houen said: "You see that this place is really interesting, the surrounding mountains and forests seem to enclose this place. ”
The others also looked down, although they couldn't see the whole picture, but they could see that the edge of the mountain forest was round, obviously enclosing this area, so Zhang Xiao warned Xia Houen: "So be careful when you walk, there are hidden dangers everywhere here, and if you don't pay attention to it, your mind will be eroded." ”
Everyone marched to the mountain all the way with fear, and the surroundings seemed too normal, without the slightest sign of miasma, but Zhang Xiao and the others were afraid, and they were worried about the threat that could not be discovered.
Everyone also passed through several villages on the way, and after careful inspection, they found that they had been abandoned for a long time, and there were obviously traces of man-made destruction, so it was certain that this was definitely the outer demon world, but why was there no miasma? This was always the biggest doubt in everyone's hearts.
Zhang Xiao finally couldn't help but walk towards Zhang Xiao and asked, "Cousin, are you sure you didn't take the wrong path, it doesn't look like there is danger here, don't go in the wrong direction." ”
Zhang Xiao hurriedly said: "How can this be wrong, a short walk ahead will be to the Headless Mountain Pass, which is the location of the Outer Demon Realm, if the injured city is still there, it should be able to be seen." ”
So everyone quickened their pace and walked quickly towards the top of the mountain, and it didn't take long to see a person wearing Zhishan clothes sitting on the rock.
That person also seemed to sense that someone was coming, stood up and looked in the direction of Zhang Xiao and the others, and was immediately surprised when he saw Zhang Xiao.
Zhang Jiao saw that there was really someone here, so he immediately ran over and asked the man: "May I ask if you are the senior of the injured city?" We happened to pass by here, and we heard that the senior Jiang Qizi said that you were guarding here, but I didn't expect it to be true. ”
The man replied, "Yes, I just hurt Chengzi, I can't imagine that the nerd is still alive now, what is your relationship with Jiang Qizi, why did you come here?"
Zhang Yao replied: "We are Jiang Qizi's apprentices, and now we are going to rush to the Honeycomb Mountain Group, just passing by here, I didn't expect that Zhishan has been destroyed for so many years, and you are still guarding here, and the immortal cultivators will definitely be proud of you." ”
Hurt Chengzi was not interested in accepting Zhang Yao's praise, and said unceremoniously: "Since I am a disciple of the Mourning Sect, it is only my responsibility to guard this place, for the sake of my fellow disciples, I will not drive you away, do you have anything important? Otherwise, leave quickly." ”
Zhang Jiao didn't expect Chengzi to be so cold, it was rare to see the only fellow disciple, and he actually issued an eviction order just after they met, and sure enough, as Jiang Qizi said, the people who lost the sect were all weird people, and they didn't know what to do.
Zhang Xiao also walked over at this time and asked Hurt Chengzi: "Senior, I don't know why there is no miasma in this outer demon world? ”
Hurt Chengzi still looked at Zhang Xiao in surprise, and only replied after a while: "You must not know about the Outer Demon Realm, only those who have just known the Outer Demon Realm will call it the Outer Demon Realm, and those who know this will call it the Source of Bliss, and it is impossible to be sealed here, because the Source of Bliss is opened from the Demon Realm, there is no difference between sealing and not sealing, for the Demon Race, you only need to open one more again, so it is better to let this place open, lest they make holes everywhere." ”
Zhang Xiao asked curiously, "Why do you call this place the source of bliss?
Hurt Chengzi patiently explained: "The name of the source of bliss was not originally taken by us, but by the people who were eroded by the miasma here, when the source of bliss appeared, the residents here were infected by the miasma, aroused the demonic nature in their hearts, as if they were in the realm of bliss, so there was this name, and then the infected people will involuntarily devote themselves to the source of bliss and become the food of the demons, and those who do not invest in the source of bliss will also be controlled by the demons and become tools for killing." ”
Zhang Xiao finally knew the horror of the Bliss Source, but since the Bliss Source was so powerful, why was it suppressed now? So he asked: "So the Bliss Source is indeed an extremely dangerous place, but how can you not feel the miasma at all now? Is there any way to curb it?"
Hurt Chengzi continued to answer: "If you want to curb the miasma, you can never do it, if you want to stop the miasma from entering the world, the only way is to start through the demons, the demons want to use the eroded people, so that they can be possessed in the human body, so that they can enter the human world, as long as they do their hands and feet on the eroded people, they can be victimized, and the miasma will naturally be easier to force back to the demon world." ”
From the words of the injured city, I can hear that this method seems to be very cruel, but if you want to deal with the murderous demons, you can only do this, if you let a demon enter the world, it may also cause a catastrophe.
Su Layer heard that Chengzi had been explaining to Zhang Xiao and Zhang Yao, and he was also curious, and asked, "Then what does the demon clan look like, and how do you prevent the miasma invasion now?"
The more questions were asked, but Chengzi was not bored, and continued to explain slowly: "No one knows what the demon is like, because we can't enter the demon world, but the people who have been freed from the demon nature know the horror of the demon race, they say that the miasma is just the air of the demon world, and the demon itself will release the demon qi, and as long as people are contaminated with the demon qi, they will immediately go mad and become the lackeys of the demon race, so once the demon clan enters the human world, the human world will soon fall." ”
Hurt Chengzi pointed to the source of bliss again, and said: "And our way to prevent miasma now is to use the air in the world, since their air is so harmful to us, and they can't survive directly in the world, so the ancestors thought that the air in the world should also cause great harm to them, so we used the aura to compress the air outside the source of bliss to the mouth of the source of bliss, and sure enough, the miasma leaked out." ”
Zhang Xiao was very emotional, this is the conclusion that the ancestors have come to after many years of verification, the disciples of the Mourning Sect have always been silently and lonely in the struggle against these extremely dangerous demons, if they are taken lightly, they will be doomed at any time, it is very likely that their character has become like this because of the source of bliss.
Hurt Chengzi also replied when he should have answered, although he still kept his composure, but he didn't want Zhang Xiao and the others to stay here any longer, and said: "If you have nothing to do, leave quickly, this is not for you to come, don't affect me here, if you are a little careless, it may be a big mistake." ”
Zhang Xiao also felt that he really shouldn't hinder Hurt Chengzi anymore, and was about to leave with everyone, but Zhang Xiao seemed to be very interested in Hurt Chengzi, and asked, "How strong is your strength? Why can't you feel your aura?"
Hurt Chengzi didn't explain, pointed his hand to the sky, and a large mass of rich aura immediately gathered, forming an incomparably huge ball, covering the entire mountain, and everyone who saw it widened their eyes, they couldn't believe that one person had so much aura, and this didn't seem to be all the aura of Hurt Chengzi, Zhang Yao also found that Hurt Chengzi was actually a spirit, if according to Zhishan's distribution, Hurt Chengzi could already be the sect master.
Hurt Chengzi controlled the spirit balloon and smashed it to the ground, everyone who watched was nervous, not knowing what Hurt Chengzi wanted to do, and when the spirit balloon was about to touch the ground, it suddenly cracked, and the soft aura blew Zhang Xiao and everyone in the direction of the mountain.
Hurt Chengzi took advantage of Zhang Xiao's failure to fly away, and said: "If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to me at any time, and I will always stay here." ”
Zhang Xiao and the others felt that this aura was more like escorting them down the mountain, and felt that although Chengzi's personality was a little weird, he was still a good person.
