Confucian Sword Fairy
Chapter 91 The Holy Religion
Chapter 91 The Holy Religion
The old man stood in front of the well and kept talking, without any emotion in his voice.
But those words were full of temptation, and his face was full of eagerness, like a persuasive elder, guiding people to be good.
"Make a decision. No one will know. It's not your fault. It's human nature. You just made the most correct choice. No one blames you. What you expect most is right in front of you. a decision."
He continued to speak, Kong Dong's eyes became a little more eager, and his voice became softer, which was different from before.
Listening to these words, Yuan Ming kept his eyes on the baby in the well.
Look at the bucket that is constantly being seeped by the cold incoming water.
There was also subdued crying.
But in his mind, there are dozens of treasures on the ground, which can be grasped as long as he stretches out his hand.
"Yeah, people are dying every day. Even if I save them, what can I change? And if I become stronger, I can save more people in the future. Although I don't save them now, it's for the sake of saving more people in the future." .”
"As long as I have those things, my strength can be greatly improved, and I don't have to worry about it for the time being. I can save more time for cultivation, can reach the alchemy state, and have more powerful power. If I were someone else , will you choose this way?"
"Yes, everyone knows what to do, what to choose."
Yuan Ming's mind was filled with an idea, completely different from before.
I think the old man around me is right, this is human nature, every day mortals will die
The Confucian righteousness in the body also began to become thinner.
At this moment, he was persuaded by those words, and his shaking heart gradually stabilized, but he still didn't speak, just stood where he was.
It is cost-effective to trade a baby's life for something he dreamed of, and for the possibility of attaining alchemy in the future. Yuan Ming believes that any monk knows how to do it.
But why are you still hesitating?
"Has a decision been made?"
The old man spoke again, but there was still no change in his words: "Just pick up the things, turn your head and leave, don't hesitate anymore, think about yourself, you have cultivated for so many years, and finally reached the foundation-building stage, but those sects today Sect disciple, I still don't care about your casual cultivation, what is the root cause, it is because you are not strong enough, as long as you become strong, these things will not happen to you in the future."
"And you are only one decision, one thought, one step away from these."
"Just take it away?"
Finally, Yuan Ming spoke, with a trembling tone.
He really didn't want to watch the mortal baby in front of him die like this, but if he could avoid it
In this way, it should have nothing to do with me at all, right?After all, I didn't do anything, I just walked away.
"good."
The old man nodded and beckoned. All the magic weapons flying sword pills on the ground were hanging in the air, and they were all put into a storage bag. Then he placed them in front of Yuan Ming with an approachable voice: "Take it , Just leave, just pretend you haven’t been here.”
Yuan Ming's hands trembled when he heard this, and he remained silent, but finally he took the storage bag.
Immediately afterwards, he lowered his head and walked away from the well step by step.
The surrounding black mist suddenly rushed over.
Yuan Ming could no longer see the old man, nor could he see the well. He could only hear the cry of the baby, which disappeared after a while.
"Dead?" Yuan Ming trembled in his heart. He immediately picked up the storage bag, and his soul swept it away. Among them, with a slight movement of the mind, it can be taken out.
Seeing this, for some reason, he breathed a sigh of relief, then carefully put it away, but did not continue to walk, but stood where he was.
What Yuan Ming didn't know was that at this moment, an extremely strong black aura emerged from his body.
It was a shadow, exactly the same shape as it, and it floated into the distance after leaving the body.
On the other side, the old man stood by the well, his eyes still blank.
In the well, the baby was already dead, sank to the bottom of the well, and could no longer survive. There was also a black breath rising from inside. After seeing it, he immediately opened his mouth and inhaled.
At the same time, at the place where Yuan Ming left, there was also a stream of black aura, one large and one small, which he swallowed into his stomach.
Call ~
The next moment, the aura around the old man became stronger than before.
"As expected of a scholar who cultivated Confucian righteousness, this strength is much stronger than those disciples of the sect. Unfortunately, my current strength is less than [-]%, and I need to be careful when dealing with one, but after this time, I should be able to change to a stronger target. gone."
Feeling the power, the old man had an extremely comfortable expression on his face, as if he was full and satisfied.
"Congratulations, my lord, the strength has recovered."
At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the black mist.
The middle-aged man is tall and dressed in a white robe. His strength is at the completion of foundation establishment, but he faintly reveals an aura that is completely different from ordinary monks.
And after he appeared, he bowed slightly to the old man, with respect in his mouth: "My lord, what about the other people?"
"Today's movement will definitely attract their attention, and then they will continue to stay here."
The old man thought for a moment, and then said again: "Among this group of people, there is a Confucian and Taoist who has reached the realm of knowing and doing. I can feel that the power contained in his body is very strong. If he can arouse the deepest part of his heart Greed, then my strength can be restored to [-]%."
"Directly attack the person who knows the situation?"
The middle-aged man frowned, and said involuntarily: "There are more or less Confucian upright people in this group, and there is one who knows the Holy Land, my lord, we can take it step by step, with your means, they can't escape. "
As for the source of the old man's strength, the middle-aged man is very clear that evoking evil thoughts in others can make him strong without practicing at all.
And the higher the cultivation level, the more power you will get. However, if you are a Confucian scholar, the effect will be even better. A Confucian scholar who has entered the realm can supplement the power. Even more than one alchemy realm.
The reason is very simple. Confucianism cultivates the way of a gentleman and cultivates the heart. Such people have pure thoughts.
If such Confucian scholars can be made to have evil thoughts, on the contrary, the more that force will be.
But doing so is also dangerous.
Because the methods of Confucian scholars have great restraint on the elderly, and it is not easy to seduce them.
Therefore, the middle-aged people think that it is possible to proceed step by step, and there is no need to directly deal with those who know the situation.
"The old man naturally understands what you said."
The old man opened his mouth, and his tone began to change: "But that Confucian scholar is different from the ones I met before. The Confucian righteousness in his body is very special. Although he is only in the realm of knowledge and practice, if he really succeeds, he may be comparable to the realm of a gentleman. student."
"And we don't have much time, so we can't delay any longer. The plan will start soon, and the old man must recover his strength in a short time. Then the next thing will be easier. How are you preparing? ?”
He has his own considerations, and knows that it might not be good to do so, but it's nothing. It's not that he hasn't met a scholar who knows how to do things. In his heyday, even Zhengru dared to attack, just because he knew what to do. Besides, the old man observed For a long time, it is Taoism and Confucianism, which means that there are more weaknesses. If it is just a simple scholar, it may be a little troublesome.
But if you still practice the immortal way, you must have a stronger obsession with strength, cultivation and so on.
The old man was very confident about this, so he directly asked about the progress of the plan.
"Reporting to my lord, the powerhouses of the holy religion are already in place, and I believe it won't take too long."
The middle-aged man bowed back, with a smile in his words: "Although Taihao Sword Sect reacted, it didn't affect our plan. Everything is under control."
"it is good."
The old man nodded when he heard the words, and there was excitement in Kong Dong's eyes: "The layout has been for so long, and I have finally gained something. Remember, you must not make mistakes. This plan is about resuscitating the demon lord. It is of great significance. Just wait for the three The demon lord has completely recovered, then there is no force in the world today that can stop us, and at that time, your holy religion will make the greatest contribution."
"It's an adult."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was overjoyed.
What he cares about is not meritorious deeds, what is important is being able to revive the demon lord.
As long as the demon master recovers, it will prove that everything Tianshengjiao has done is correct.
At this point in his thoughts, the middle-aged man's smile became more and more intense, but he quickly thought of another thing, and couldn't help but say: "Unfortunately, the last method of the Confucian sage was too unexpected, preventing the recovery of the strongest demon lord." , Let our years of hard work go to waste, otherwise we don’t have to be so troublesome and have to make a plan for the next step.”
"After all, he is a Confucian sage, and he cannot be crossed with common sense, but don't worry, we still have a chance."
Hearing this, the old man's expression also changed, he shook his head, he didn't say much on this topic, but said: "Okay, I don't need your help here for the time being, you go too, to implement the last step of the plan .”
After finishing speaking, the old man waved his hand, and an inexplicable force emerged from him.
Behind him, the black mist was oscillating, continuously gathering, and combined, it could be vaguely seen that it seemed to have turned into three altars. The old man stood under the altars and said at the same time: "In the name of the old demon, I beg the Lord to give you grace, to our most devout believers."
The old man's voice was very small, as if it came from a very ancient place, and slowly fell into the ears of the middle-aged man.
And the next moment, the middle-aged man only felt an inexplicable force surge out of his body, and his original cultivation base of foundation building was also rising steadily at this moment. With just one breath, his strength reached the perfect alchemy state , directly raised a big realm.
"Thank you sir."
Seeing this, the latter bowed immediately to express his thanks.
"Go, refine the grace of the demon lord, and you can also hope for the golden elixir." The old man said, not paying attention to this.
The middle-aged man lowered his head and slowly backed away, his figure soon disappeared.
The old man turned his head and set his eyes in a certain direction, as if he had penetrated the black mist and landed on a certain person. Immediately, a smile appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself: "Don't worry, wait for me to refine it." This power will be yours tomorrow."
After the voice fell, his figure disappeared into the darkness, and his aura completely disappeared, as if he had never appeared before.
Immediately afterwards, the black mist covering this area gradually became thinner and began to dissipate.
over time until it disappears.
at the same time.
Song Zhishu on the other side was still trying to break through the black mist in front of him. He even used Haoran Zhengqi, but the effect was not great.
"What kind of existence is this monster? Is righteousness useless?" Song Zhishu stopped, thinking that even if he encounters a monster, with his own means, even if he loses, he still has a way to deal with it.
But how long has passed now?I still have nothing to do with the black mist.
He even had some doubts. Are the monsters that exist in Luojiazhuang really just Yin Demons?
Huhu~
When Song Zhishu fell into deep thought, there was another breeze around him, and all the black mist was blown away at this time.
He couldn't help raising his head, and found that everything that had been covered just now slowly came into view. Not long after, when the black mist cleared, Song Zhishu found himself less than three meters away from the bonfire, and there were familiar lines beside him. A figure appears.
It was Lin Cheng, Wang Chong and the others. Everyone looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. They found that the black mist that they could not escape no matter what, the people they could not find no matter what, the farthest distance from where they were. Also less than ten meters.
"What just happened? Are you all okay?"
"I don't know, what is that black mist?"
"This... Are we trapped in a formation?"
Everyone spoke, but they didn't dare to move, fearing that the previous situation would happen again.
Li Xiansong suspects that this is a kind of formation, and at the same time he still has lingering fears about what just happened.
Obviously everyone was by his side, but no matter what he did, there was no response, even monks would feel fear.
As a formation mage, he naturally first thought of formations.
Only the formation can reverse the earth's veins, cover the soul, and make people trapped in a certain area and cannot get out, so Li Xiansong thinks it is a formation, but when he thinks about it carefully, he has a feeling that he can't explain it.
"Mr. Song?"
Chen Jingyun not far away also spoke: "What's going on, will the black mist still appear?"
He frowned, but he stood still and didn't dare to move around, because everyone was lost in the black mist just because he took a step. Not only could he not find his way, he couldn't even feel the passage of time.
Chen Jingyun knew that it was a demon, but it was of no use to arouse the righteousness of Confucianism.
So at this moment, I had no choice but to turn to Song Zhishu for help to see if the other party found anything.
But Song Zhishu didn't answer right away. From the expressions of everyone, he could see that everyone had the same experience as himself. They were covered by the black mist and lost most of their perception. But what happened during this period?
But Song Zhishu knows that now is not the time to think about these things, the key is whether the crisis is resolved or not.
After thinking for a while, he circulated the awe-inspiring righteousness, and at the same time encouraged the magic power in his body, and began to move his body.
Everyone held their breath and became vigilant.
Soon, following Song Zhishu's movements, the black mist did not appear again, everything was very normal, and he could also feel that the awe-inspiring righteousness did not send out any warnings, and it seemed that he had superfluous thoughts lying dormant in his body.
"It should be fine, but don't take it lightly, you walk around one by one."
Song Zhishu opened his mouth and nodded slightly towards Chen Jingyun.
The latter understood what it meant, and immediately moved around without any change.
Immediately, Lin Cheng, Wang Chong and others did the same, and everything was still the same, the surroundings were still silent and there was no change.
"never mind?"
Chen Jingyun remained vigilant, and motioned for everyone to approach.
Everyone checked each other, no one was missing, and no one was injured.
At the same time, everyone began to recount what happened after the black mist hit. They were roughly the same as Song Zhishu. disappear.
And everyone calculated the time again, and found that two hours had passed from the time the black mist came out to when it subsided.
Today is almost dawn.
"What happened just now?"
After everyone sat down, Lin Cheng couldn't help it. This was the first time he encountered such a situation after many years of practice.
Although the others didn't feel the danger anymore, they all looked around very vigilantly, fearing that the black mist would appear again,
"It's definitely a monster's method, but the black mist doesn't look like a formation." Li Xiansong said, his eyes full of doubts.
"Since it is a demon, it cannot be judged by common sense."
Wang Chong said, the black mist he felt was really weird, but it was enough to cut off contact just a few meters away.
Gu Siqing, Shen Xing, Lou Zhong, and Sha Wenxuan also spoke, and they were all terrified. They knew that it was a demon, but now they didn't even see the enemy. They didn't dare to imagine such a situation before.
"Mr. Chen, you know more about monsters, so let me tell you what you think." Song Zhishu knew that there must be no information from the few people, so he asked more experienced people, and he suspected that the one who shot was not ordinary. Demon, otherwise how could it be possible to achieve such a level?Until now, no one knows what happened.
"I don't know why, the demons have strange methods, even the Yin demons, each one is different."
Chen Jingyun thought for a while, and continued: "It is really impossible for all of us not to notice the ability of ordinary Yin demons, but my question is, since the demon made a move, why didn't anything happen in the end? "
Everyone was shrouded in black mist, and if they did something, they would definitely be taken by surprise, but the problem is that no one was injured, just like the monster who only wanted to trap the people present, and didn't intend to hurt anyone, which is very strange. Another point is that they still haven't figured out how the people in Luojiazhuang disappeared are all mysteries.
"Perhaps the demon has other plans."
Song Zhishu made a sound, looked at the rising sun in the distance, and continued: "My suggestion is, since we found the monster, let's stay in Luojiazhuang for another day to see if we will meet the same monster tonight. Condition."
It has been confirmed that there is a monster here, so the next thing to do is how to find it out.
As for whether there are monsters in other places, this is no longer within the scope of consideration.
Because Luojiazhuang has not been resolved, even if there are other places, I can't go there.
Most importantly.
The most important purpose of everyone's trip is to find out the mysterious disappearance of villagers in several villages.
"I agree with what Mr. Song said." Chen Jingyun opened his mouth, agreeing with Song Zhishu's words. Although the experience before was indeed very strange, but he came here, and it is impossible to return empty-handed. What if there is a new discovery tonight?
"This"
Gu Siqing and Shen Xing were silent.
Although they were not injured or encountered any danger, the sense of powerlessness shrouded in the black mist still made them a little uncomfortable. If it was a monster, at least they knew what they were facing. But now I don't even know who is doing it.
In this case, what if the monster made a move?Is there a way to resist it?
Song Zhishu looked at the hesitant expressions of several people, but didn't say anything.
It is human nature to feel fear in the face of the unknown, and there is nothing to blame, because even I am worried that something will happen one night later.
"Several fellow daoists, I thought of a way. We tied our bodies with ropes in advance. In this way, even if the black mist hits again tonight, we can still find each other along the ropes. As long as we can get together, we will be together." You can think of a way, break it, find a way to break it, and find the monster that made the attack, how about it?"
Chen Jingyun mentioned a method to deal with the black mist, which is very old, but very useful.
And what he meant was very simple, that is, after the black mist appeared, everyone gathered together and tried to find a way.
Like the previous situation, it came too suddenly, and it was the first time I faced it. Now that I have some experience, I will not be passive in dealing with it.
"I agree with what Mr. Chen said."
Song Zhishu nodded, thinking that the method was good, but this alone was not enough, so he took out the gemstone that had been inscribed long ago from the storage bag, and then said: "This is the gemstone I prepared, and it contains the power of pure yang. If the monster appears If so, it should work.”
He also used this precious jade last night, and it did dispel some of the black mist, but it didn't take long.
Song Zhishu was sure that if the monster appeared, it would definitely be useful.
The purpose of taking it out is to give a few people more confidence.
Otherwise, if you continue to fear like this, even if you force yourself to stay, you will definitely not gain anything tonight.
"This, Song Daoyou is not very good." Lin Cheng said, he could tell at a glance that it was a middle-grade spiritual gem, and the price was at least two thousand spirit stones. With nine people present, it was close to ten thousand spirit stones. It's really embarrassing to continue like this.
The three of them were more familiar with Song Zhishu, and this mission came automatically, so of course they would not leave.
So they all think that if the treasure jade can not be accepted, it is better not to accept it.
Gu Siqing, Shen Xing and the others also nodded. They were willing to stay, but they were just a little worried.
Now that Song Zhishu took out Baoyu, several people were a little embarrassed and felt that they could not accept it directly.
The reason is very simple, now they are performing the task of Wanshi Pavilion, they were moved by seeing the generous rewards before, but in fact, with the abilities of Chen Jingyun and Song Zhishu, it is not difficult to find stronger people.
But the two still chose themselves. If it were at another time, they would not have this opportunity at all.
Now that there is a premonition that there is a crisis, should we back down?Once this is done, who is willing to form a team with several people in the future?
Therefore, when Chen Jingyun spoke, the four of them had already made a decision, and now Zhishu Song took out Baoyu. They knew the reason, and they also knew that having this thing could better deal with the crisis, but they couldn't accept it directly.
After all, this kind of thing is actually considered precious to a few people.
Usually they are not even willing to buy magic weapons.
What's more, Baoyu?
Song Zhishu naturally understood everyone's thoughts. He smiled slightly and spoke softly: "Baoyu is only temporarily loaned to you. If you use it tonight, you can give it to me at the price of raw materials."
Facing the unknown monster, he was not sure whether he could defeat it, and one more person would give him more confidence.
This is not a free gift, but also for myself to survive the crisis and complete the task.
"Then thank you, Mr. Song."
Several people looked at each other and thought it was acceptable, so they immediately put away the precious jade.
Although Chen Jingyun is a scholar of Confucianism, he finally thought that it would be good to have this thing, so he nodded.
Seeing that everyone accepted it, only Yuan Ming was left behind, Song Zhishu turned his head and said, "Friend Daoist Yuan, do you have any concerns?"
"Ah, no, just listen to Mr. Song."
Yuan Ming regained his composure, cupped his hands and took the precious jade, then lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu felt a little strange. After the black mist subsided, he felt that the other party was not right, his mind was not on him at all, and he didn't say much all the time, but the other party didn't open his mouth, so he couldn't ask much.
But his intuition told Song Zhishu that Yuan Ming must have something on his mind, and maybe he encountered a different situation from everyone else.
So tonight, we must pay close attention.
"Okay, that's the plan. Let's stay in Zhuangzi for another night." Seeing that everyone had no objections, Chen Jingyun opened his mouth and confirmed what to do tonight.
At the same time, he found a rope and poured mana into it to make it stronger.
He had a hunch that if he could solve the unknown monster.
Then this time the task can be completed.
After all, the one who can use such a method is definitely the culprit for the disappearance of several villages overnight.
Immediately, the group of ten people stopped talking and meditated and rested to restore mana.
I don't know what's going on tonight, maybe nothing will be discovered like before, or maybe we'll go through a fierce battle, all in all, everyone must ensure that they are in a perfect state and concentrate all their attention.
Time also passed by bit by bit. For monks who have been retreating all year round, a month or even a year is like a blink of an eye.
But today's day seems to be longer than ever.
Everyone is doing their own thing according to plan.
The busiest among them was Li Xiansong, who proposed to arrange a formation around everyone.
Although they knew it was not meaningful to do so, everyone thought it was better to have something than nothing, and finally agreed.
And during this period.
In addition to meditating, Song Zhishu was paying attention to Yuan Ming's state. Although the other party sat cross-legged to practice after work, he opened his eyes from time to time, absent-minded. One of them took out the storage bag, as if he was checking something.
something is wrong
In this regard, Song Zhishu has already made a rough judgment.
Yuan Ming definitely has a secret, and it just happened last night, maybe it has something to do with monsters, but it's not clear what it is.
He also sensed it with awe-inspiring righteousness, and there was no weird aura on the other party, which was normal.
Of course, it is also possible that this is just one of the methods of the demon.
Shaking his head, Song Zhishu stopped thinking about it.
Quietly wait for the time to pass.
Soon, night fell, and Luojiazhuang was still in the original courtyard, but the moonlight on the sky had been completely blocked, and gusts of cool wind continued to hit, and it was destined that this night would not be peaceful.
"The black mist hit yesterday probably at the time of Chou, and it is still half an hour away from now. Please pay attention."
Chen Jingyun tied the rope around everyone's waist, and at the same time attached Confucian righteousness to it. Now they are facing monsters, and against monsters, the best thing to use is the power of Confucianism.
Naturally, Song Zhishu would not be idle, sacrificed the saint's sword fetus, and blessed all the arrogance and righteousness in his body.
The purpose is to be able to predict the arrival of the crisis at the first time.
Thereafter.
Everyone didn't speak, they kept looking around, with mana wandering around them, and at the same time they were holding the precious jade given by Song Zhishu in their hands, they had already concentrated all their attention, as if they were facing a big enemy.
But Luojiazhuang is still very quiet, only the beating of the bonfire and the sound of the wind blowing.
Soon, ugly time came, and nothing changed.
"The demon won't come tonight, right?" Lin Cheng couldn't help but see that the time had passed.
Call ~
But as soon as he finished speaking, it was the same wind as last night.
clang clang ~
The saint's sword fetus was also shaking constantly at this moment, making a violent sword cry.
"coming."
Song Zhishu sensed it immediately, and spoke directly, the strong mana in his body also shook, and at the same time, the precious jade in his hand also exuded wisps of pure yang energy at this moment, ready to strike at any time.
Chen Jingyun also raised his flying sword, and Confucian righteousness poured into it, facing the direction the wind was blowing from.
Everyone is well-prepared, and they will attack strongly when they find out that something is wrong.
"Black mist, it's black mist."
Wang Chong opened his mouth and looked at the black mist that suddenly appeared in front of him.
This time they were prepared, so they all saw that the black mist came from the east, covering everything in front of them.
"Stand together." Song Zhishu made everyone gather together, because he found that the change of Haoran's righteousness was stronger than before. Obviously, the monster hidden in the dark was being solved, but it was at the moment when he spoke , The black mist enveloped everyone.
puff~
The next moment, the rope that tied everyone up broke.
Song Zhishu felt that Yuanshen was shielded, and the scene in front of him began to change.
Chen Jingyun, Lin Cheng, and Wang Chong all disappeared, and everything disappeared, leaving only the black mist in front of them.
"Is it still not enough?" Song Zhishu's complexion changed slightly when he saw this, and he immediately looked for Chen Jingyun according to the direction he remembered, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, because he realized that what he was stepping on was not the one in Luojiazhuang. The road, but the grass.
The black mist didn't seem to be as dense as it was at the beginning, and it was a little thinner, and the surrounding scenes of tens of meters were all brought into view.
There is grass at the foot, shrubs next to it, and tall trees in the distance.
And Song Zhishu was standing on a mountain road at the moment.
"The technique of teleportation?"
Seeing this, he frowned. When he encountered the black mist yesterday, he was in Luojiazhuang, but today he changed to a different place. Obviously, someone used the technique of teleportation to send him to this mountain road , has obviously been far away from Luojiazhuang.
Song Zhishu remembers that there is also a hill with lush foliage hundreds of meters behind Luojiazhuang.
But not sure if it's the same one.
"Did Yuan Ming also encounter this situation last night?"
Song Zhishu said to himself, he observed everyone during the day, only Yuan Ming was wrong, which was obviously completely different from what happened to him, but he was not sure what happened, he could only guess that it might be the same as now.
And whether Chen Jingyun and others were also moved out of Luojiazhuang.
In this regard, he is not clear.
As for leaving, Song Zhishu didn't think about it. He tried many times last night. Although the place is different now, it should be the same. He will definitely not be able to go out. Even if he leaves, he will return to the same place in the end.
What's next?Can we just wait?
Be calm.
Song Zhishu told himself that now is not the time to think about those, the most important thing is to understand the current situation.
Immediately he raised his head and looked around. The black mist still existed, but it wasn't that he couldn't see his fingers. He could see the scene tens of meters away. Not far away, there was also a mountain road. Because of the low terrain, Song Zhishu could see it clearly The whole picture, but you can't see it from farther away, and the same is true for Yuanshen's sweeping, obviously blocked by the black mist on purpose.
"Since the demon that shot made me see further, it must have some intentions, but what is it going to do?"
"If this is the mountain behind Luojiazhuang, is there any difference here?"
Song Zhishu kept analyzing the current situation.
Because he has already determined in his heart that since the monster sent himself out of Luojiazhuang, there is a great probability that it will appear, but what is the purpose?
And just as he was thinking, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at another mountain path below. On that mountain path, three figures suddenly appeared, walking towards the mountain.
"Someone?"
Song Zhishu was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't choose to approach. Instead, he stood on the spot and released his primordial spirit, wanting to confirm whether the story of those people was true or not.
As his primordial spirit continued to scan, he found that these three people really existed, and they were not illusions deliberately created.
"A mortal? How could there be a mortal?"
Song Zhishu was completely puzzled. He could clearly see that these people were wearing ordinary sackcloth clothes, with hatchets in their waists. Their expressions were relaxed, talking and laughing, without any special aura. They were just mortals. Judging by their clothes Appears to be a nearby woodcutter.
But now it is clearly late at night, how could someone go up the mountain? Where did these people come from?
Isn't the nearest place, Luojiazhuang, empty?Also, can't these people see the weird black mist around them?
Questions appeared in Song Zhishu's mind one after another, making him more confused and unable to understand the current situation.
"roar~"
Suddenly, the roar of a beast interrupted Song Zhishu's thoughts.
He immediately raised his head, and immediately saw a fierce tiger appearing on the mountain road below. The tiger was thick and looked extremely fierce, and it was less than 20 meters away from the three woodcutters.
And the ferocious scarlet eyes of the fierce tiger were staring at the three people not far in front of them, as if they would pounce on them at any moment.
But the three woodcutters, as if they didn't see anything, still walked forward on their own.
According to this situation, the three of them would become the prey of the tiger in a short while.
"Rescue."
Seeing this, Song Zhishu made a decision in just a split second.
After all, he had carefully observed that the three woodcutters were ordinary people, and they would definitely die if they encountered a tiger. Although he didn't know why they appeared, but now was not the time to hesitate. Now that he saw them, he naturally couldn't leave them behind. .
"Don't worry, little friend."
But the next moment, an old voice appeared.
Song Zhishu turned his head and found an old man next to the tree opposite him. He didn't know when he appeared. The man was covered in black robes, with a pair of piercing eyes staring at him, making people feel chills.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu didn't intend to pay attention to it, but he felt that the awe-inspiring righteousness in his body was constantly right, indicating a crisis.
"demon?"
He looked at the old man in front of him, and said two words lightly.
Judging from the awe-inspiring Sanskrit voice, the other party is definitely a monster.
"It doesn't matter if the old man is a demon or not."
The old man didn't seem surprised that Song Zhishu saw his identity directly, but he just said to himself: "The important thing is, is my little friend really going to save those mortals?"
"Their fate is fixed. In this life, they will be buried in the tiger's mouth. Even if the little friend is saved, the result will be the same tomorrow."
The old man's voice was flat, but there was an undeniable tone.
It's like what I just said will definitely come true.
He looked at Song Zhishu and smiled.
For the sake of the other party, the old man can be said to have made sufficient preparations, so he did not hesitate to move Song Zhishu out alone.
It is to create the most favorable environment for yourself.
Confucian scholars.
Naturally, it cannot be as simple as before to arouse the greed in his heart.
Special means must be used.
"If I save them once, they will live one more day. They are destined to die, or they will die in front of me. They are two different things."
Song Zhishu was unmoved, and while looking at the old man, the holy sword fetus in his hand trembled slightly.
Of course, he didn't want to fight the other party, but was going to rescue the three woodcutters.
Although the people in front of him are dangerous, the situation on the mountain road below is even more urgent.
That was the life of three people.
Although I don't know what the purpose of the monster in front of me is, but no matter what, the three people in front of me must be saved.
"Actually, if you don't save these mortals, it will be more beneficial to you."
The old man spoke again, and at the same time took out treasures in his hand, and then said: "This is a whole set of top-quality ancient artifacts, as well as more precious things, which are what my little friend needs most. Of course, the old man has no other intentions, just want to It’s just for Xiaoyou to obey the destiny, they are destined to die, if Xiaoyou pretends not to see it, then all these things will belong to you, Xiaoyou.”
"Of course, no third person will know what happened today. Besides, these three people are just mortals. If they die, they will die. They won't affect anything."
Speaking of this, he showed a smile on his face: "But you are different, my friend. You are a monk and a scholar of Confucianism. You have unlimited potential in the future. If you have these things to help you, you will have higher achievements in the future."
The old man kept talking and seducing, letting Song Zhishu make a choice.
Especially in the process of speaking, the old man exuded wisps of inexplicable aura, which made his words more convincing.
And in his hands, treasures appeared one after another, including pills, flying swords, talismans, and so on.
All kinds of rays of light are surging, dazzling, but everything related to practice is available.
These treasures add up to more than 20 pieces, and each one is of the highest quality, any monk will be moved when he sees it.
More importantly, there is a small tower in it.
There are seven floors in the small tower, and the aura it exudes is very heavy, compared to all other treasures.
Wisps of light continue to rise and fall on the small tower, resplendent and dazzing.
After Song Zhishu saw it, he couldn't help but move slightly.
Because it is a Taoist instrument.
It is a real Tao tool. As the name suggests, it is a magic weapon of the Tao. This kind of thing can no longer be measured by spirit stones, because the Tao tool, even in a fairy school like Taihao Sword Sect, only true disciples You will have it, and it is the kind that belongs to the hole card, and you will not take it out easily, so you can imagine its preciousness.
The reason why Song Zhishu is so sure is because he has seen the Taoist artifact.
Li Qingzhou's Zhoutian star bracelet.
There is also Shen Yuan in the hand of Mu Changge's maid, which are all Taoist weapons.
Song Zhishu has seen the power of these two Taoist implements before. They are very strong and extremely powerful. They are treasures in the true sense, so Song Zhishu understands the meaning of Taoist implements. It will greatly increase your strength.
And such a treasure is right in front of you, within reach!
(End of this chapter)
The old man stood in front of the well and kept talking, without any emotion in his voice.
But those words were full of temptation, and his face was full of eagerness, like a persuasive elder, guiding people to be good.
"Make a decision. No one will know. It's not your fault. It's human nature. You just made the most correct choice. No one blames you. What you expect most is right in front of you. a decision."
He continued to speak, Kong Dong's eyes became a little more eager, and his voice became softer, which was different from before.
Listening to these words, Yuan Ming kept his eyes on the baby in the well.
Look at the bucket that is constantly being seeped by the cold incoming water.
There was also subdued crying.
But in his mind, there are dozens of treasures on the ground, which can be grasped as long as he stretches out his hand.
"Yeah, people are dying every day. Even if I save them, what can I change? And if I become stronger, I can save more people in the future. Although I don't save them now, it's for the sake of saving more people in the future." .”
"As long as I have those things, my strength can be greatly improved, and I don't have to worry about it for the time being. I can save more time for cultivation, can reach the alchemy state, and have more powerful power. If I were someone else , will you choose this way?"
"Yes, everyone knows what to do, what to choose."
Yuan Ming's mind was filled with an idea, completely different from before.
I think the old man around me is right, this is human nature, every day mortals will die
The Confucian righteousness in the body also began to become thinner.
At this moment, he was persuaded by those words, and his shaking heart gradually stabilized, but he still didn't speak, just stood where he was.
It is cost-effective to trade a baby's life for something he dreamed of, and for the possibility of attaining alchemy in the future. Yuan Ming believes that any monk knows how to do it.
But why are you still hesitating?
"Has a decision been made?"
The old man spoke again, but there was still no change in his words: "Just pick up the things, turn your head and leave, don't hesitate anymore, think about yourself, you have cultivated for so many years, and finally reached the foundation-building stage, but those sects today Sect disciple, I still don't care about your casual cultivation, what is the root cause, it is because you are not strong enough, as long as you become strong, these things will not happen to you in the future."
"And you are only one decision, one thought, one step away from these."
"Just take it away?"
Finally, Yuan Ming spoke, with a trembling tone.
He really didn't want to watch the mortal baby in front of him die like this, but if he could avoid it
In this way, it should have nothing to do with me at all, right?After all, I didn't do anything, I just walked away.
"good."
The old man nodded and beckoned. All the magic weapons flying sword pills on the ground were hanging in the air, and they were all put into a storage bag. Then he placed them in front of Yuan Ming with an approachable voice: "Take it , Just leave, just pretend you haven’t been here.”
Yuan Ming's hands trembled when he heard this, and he remained silent, but finally he took the storage bag.
Immediately afterwards, he lowered his head and walked away from the well step by step.
The surrounding black mist suddenly rushed over.
Yuan Ming could no longer see the old man, nor could he see the well. He could only hear the cry of the baby, which disappeared after a while.
"Dead?" Yuan Ming trembled in his heart. He immediately picked up the storage bag, and his soul swept it away. Among them, with a slight movement of the mind, it can be taken out.
Seeing this, for some reason, he breathed a sigh of relief, then carefully put it away, but did not continue to walk, but stood where he was.
What Yuan Ming didn't know was that at this moment, an extremely strong black aura emerged from his body.
It was a shadow, exactly the same shape as it, and it floated into the distance after leaving the body.
On the other side, the old man stood by the well, his eyes still blank.
In the well, the baby was already dead, sank to the bottom of the well, and could no longer survive. There was also a black breath rising from inside. After seeing it, he immediately opened his mouth and inhaled.
At the same time, at the place where Yuan Ming left, there was also a stream of black aura, one large and one small, which he swallowed into his stomach.
Call ~
The next moment, the aura around the old man became stronger than before.
"As expected of a scholar who cultivated Confucian righteousness, this strength is much stronger than those disciples of the sect. Unfortunately, my current strength is less than [-]%, and I need to be careful when dealing with one, but after this time, I should be able to change to a stronger target. gone."
Feeling the power, the old man had an extremely comfortable expression on his face, as if he was full and satisfied.
"Congratulations, my lord, the strength has recovered."
At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the black mist.
The middle-aged man is tall and dressed in a white robe. His strength is at the completion of foundation establishment, but he faintly reveals an aura that is completely different from ordinary monks.
And after he appeared, he bowed slightly to the old man, with respect in his mouth: "My lord, what about the other people?"
"Today's movement will definitely attract their attention, and then they will continue to stay here."
The old man thought for a moment, and then said again: "Among this group of people, there is a Confucian and Taoist who has reached the realm of knowing and doing. I can feel that the power contained in his body is very strong. If he can arouse the deepest part of his heart Greed, then my strength can be restored to [-]%."
"Directly attack the person who knows the situation?"
The middle-aged man frowned, and said involuntarily: "There are more or less Confucian upright people in this group, and there is one who knows the Holy Land, my lord, we can take it step by step, with your means, they can't escape. "
As for the source of the old man's strength, the middle-aged man is very clear that evoking evil thoughts in others can make him strong without practicing at all.
And the higher the cultivation level, the more power you will get. However, if you are a Confucian scholar, the effect will be even better. A Confucian scholar who has entered the realm can supplement the power. Even more than one alchemy realm.
The reason is very simple. Confucianism cultivates the way of a gentleman and cultivates the heart. Such people have pure thoughts.
If such Confucian scholars can be made to have evil thoughts, on the contrary, the more that force will be.
But doing so is also dangerous.
Because the methods of Confucian scholars have great restraint on the elderly, and it is not easy to seduce them.
Therefore, the middle-aged people think that it is possible to proceed step by step, and there is no need to directly deal with those who know the situation.
"The old man naturally understands what you said."
The old man opened his mouth, and his tone began to change: "But that Confucian scholar is different from the ones I met before. The Confucian righteousness in his body is very special. Although he is only in the realm of knowledge and practice, if he really succeeds, he may be comparable to the realm of a gentleman. student."
"And we don't have much time, so we can't delay any longer. The plan will start soon, and the old man must recover his strength in a short time. Then the next thing will be easier. How are you preparing? ?”
He has his own considerations, and knows that it might not be good to do so, but it's nothing. It's not that he hasn't met a scholar who knows how to do things. In his heyday, even Zhengru dared to attack, just because he knew what to do. Besides, the old man observed For a long time, it is Taoism and Confucianism, which means that there are more weaknesses. If it is just a simple scholar, it may be a little troublesome.
But if you still practice the immortal way, you must have a stronger obsession with strength, cultivation and so on.
The old man was very confident about this, so he directly asked about the progress of the plan.
"Reporting to my lord, the powerhouses of the holy religion are already in place, and I believe it won't take too long."
The middle-aged man bowed back, with a smile in his words: "Although Taihao Sword Sect reacted, it didn't affect our plan. Everything is under control."
"it is good."
The old man nodded when he heard the words, and there was excitement in Kong Dong's eyes: "The layout has been for so long, and I have finally gained something. Remember, you must not make mistakes. This plan is about resuscitating the demon lord. It is of great significance. Just wait for the three The demon lord has completely recovered, then there is no force in the world today that can stop us, and at that time, your holy religion will make the greatest contribution."
"It's an adult."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was overjoyed.
What he cares about is not meritorious deeds, what is important is being able to revive the demon lord.
As long as the demon master recovers, it will prove that everything Tianshengjiao has done is correct.
At this point in his thoughts, the middle-aged man's smile became more and more intense, but he quickly thought of another thing, and couldn't help but say: "Unfortunately, the last method of the Confucian sage was too unexpected, preventing the recovery of the strongest demon lord." , Let our years of hard work go to waste, otherwise we don’t have to be so troublesome and have to make a plan for the next step.”
"After all, he is a Confucian sage, and he cannot be crossed with common sense, but don't worry, we still have a chance."
Hearing this, the old man's expression also changed, he shook his head, he didn't say much on this topic, but said: "Okay, I don't need your help here for the time being, you go too, to implement the last step of the plan .”
After finishing speaking, the old man waved his hand, and an inexplicable force emerged from him.
Behind him, the black mist was oscillating, continuously gathering, and combined, it could be vaguely seen that it seemed to have turned into three altars. The old man stood under the altars and said at the same time: "In the name of the old demon, I beg the Lord to give you grace, to our most devout believers."
The old man's voice was very small, as if it came from a very ancient place, and slowly fell into the ears of the middle-aged man.
And the next moment, the middle-aged man only felt an inexplicable force surge out of his body, and his original cultivation base of foundation building was also rising steadily at this moment. With just one breath, his strength reached the perfect alchemy state , directly raised a big realm.
"Thank you sir."
Seeing this, the latter bowed immediately to express his thanks.
"Go, refine the grace of the demon lord, and you can also hope for the golden elixir." The old man said, not paying attention to this.
The middle-aged man lowered his head and slowly backed away, his figure soon disappeared.
The old man turned his head and set his eyes in a certain direction, as if he had penetrated the black mist and landed on a certain person. Immediately, a smile appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself: "Don't worry, wait for me to refine it." This power will be yours tomorrow."
After the voice fell, his figure disappeared into the darkness, and his aura completely disappeared, as if he had never appeared before.
Immediately afterwards, the black mist covering this area gradually became thinner and began to dissipate.
over time until it disappears.
at the same time.
Song Zhishu on the other side was still trying to break through the black mist in front of him. He even used Haoran Zhengqi, but the effect was not great.
"What kind of existence is this monster? Is righteousness useless?" Song Zhishu stopped, thinking that even if he encounters a monster, with his own means, even if he loses, he still has a way to deal with it.
But how long has passed now?I still have nothing to do with the black mist.
He even had some doubts. Are the monsters that exist in Luojiazhuang really just Yin Demons?
Huhu~
When Song Zhishu fell into deep thought, there was another breeze around him, and all the black mist was blown away at this time.
He couldn't help raising his head, and found that everything that had been covered just now slowly came into view. Not long after, when the black mist cleared, Song Zhishu found himself less than three meters away from the bonfire, and there were familiar lines beside him. A figure appears.
It was Lin Cheng, Wang Chong and the others. Everyone looked at each other with confusion in their eyes. They found that the black mist that they could not escape no matter what, the people they could not find no matter what, the farthest distance from where they were. Also less than ten meters.
"What just happened? Are you all okay?"
"I don't know, what is that black mist?"
"This... Are we trapped in a formation?"
Everyone spoke, but they didn't dare to move, fearing that the previous situation would happen again.
Li Xiansong suspects that this is a kind of formation, and at the same time he still has lingering fears about what just happened.
Obviously everyone was by his side, but no matter what he did, there was no response, even monks would feel fear.
As a formation mage, he naturally first thought of formations.
Only the formation can reverse the earth's veins, cover the soul, and make people trapped in a certain area and cannot get out, so Li Xiansong thinks it is a formation, but when he thinks about it carefully, he has a feeling that he can't explain it.
"Mr. Song?"
Chen Jingyun not far away also spoke: "What's going on, will the black mist still appear?"
He frowned, but he stood still and didn't dare to move around, because everyone was lost in the black mist just because he took a step. Not only could he not find his way, he couldn't even feel the passage of time.
Chen Jingyun knew that it was a demon, but it was of no use to arouse the righteousness of Confucianism.
So at this moment, I had no choice but to turn to Song Zhishu for help to see if the other party found anything.
But Song Zhishu didn't answer right away. From the expressions of everyone, he could see that everyone had the same experience as himself. They were covered by the black mist and lost most of their perception. But what happened during this period?
But Song Zhishu knows that now is not the time to think about these things, the key is whether the crisis is resolved or not.
After thinking for a while, he circulated the awe-inspiring righteousness, and at the same time encouraged the magic power in his body, and began to move his body.
Everyone held their breath and became vigilant.
Soon, following Song Zhishu's movements, the black mist did not appear again, everything was very normal, and he could also feel that the awe-inspiring righteousness did not send out any warnings, and it seemed that he had superfluous thoughts lying dormant in his body.
"It should be fine, but don't take it lightly, you walk around one by one."
Song Zhishu opened his mouth and nodded slightly towards Chen Jingyun.
The latter understood what it meant, and immediately moved around without any change.
Immediately, Lin Cheng, Wang Chong and others did the same, and everything was still the same, the surroundings were still silent and there was no change.
"never mind?"
Chen Jingyun remained vigilant, and motioned for everyone to approach.
Everyone checked each other, no one was missing, and no one was injured.
At the same time, everyone began to recount what happened after the black mist hit. They were roughly the same as Song Zhishu. disappear.
And everyone calculated the time again, and found that two hours had passed from the time the black mist came out to when it subsided.
Today is almost dawn.
"What happened just now?"
After everyone sat down, Lin Cheng couldn't help it. This was the first time he encountered such a situation after many years of practice.
Although the others didn't feel the danger anymore, they all looked around very vigilantly, fearing that the black mist would appear again,
"It's definitely a monster's method, but the black mist doesn't look like a formation." Li Xiansong said, his eyes full of doubts.
"Since it is a demon, it cannot be judged by common sense."
Wang Chong said, the black mist he felt was really weird, but it was enough to cut off contact just a few meters away.
Gu Siqing, Shen Xing, Lou Zhong, and Sha Wenxuan also spoke, and they were all terrified. They knew that it was a demon, but now they didn't even see the enemy. They didn't dare to imagine such a situation before.
"Mr. Chen, you know more about monsters, so let me tell you what you think." Song Zhishu knew that there must be no information from the few people, so he asked more experienced people, and he suspected that the one who shot was not ordinary. Demon, otherwise how could it be possible to achieve such a level?Until now, no one knows what happened.
"I don't know why, the demons have strange methods, even the Yin demons, each one is different."
Chen Jingyun thought for a while, and continued: "It is really impossible for all of us not to notice the ability of ordinary Yin demons, but my question is, since the demon made a move, why didn't anything happen in the end? "
Everyone was shrouded in black mist, and if they did something, they would definitely be taken by surprise, but the problem is that no one was injured, just like the monster who only wanted to trap the people present, and didn't intend to hurt anyone, which is very strange. Another point is that they still haven't figured out how the people in Luojiazhuang disappeared are all mysteries.
"Perhaps the demon has other plans."
Song Zhishu made a sound, looked at the rising sun in the distance, and continued: "My suggestion is, since we found the monster, let's stay in Luojiazhuang for another day to see if we will meet the same monster tonight. Condition."
It has been confirmed that there is a monster here, so the next thing to do is how to find it out.
As for whether there are monsters in other places, this is no longer within the scope of consideration.
Because Luojiazhuang has not been resolved, even if there are other places, I can't go there.
Most importantly.
The most important purpose of everyone's trip is to find out the mysterious disappearance of villagers in several villages.
"I agree with what Mr. Song said." Chen Jingyun opened his mouth, agreeing with Song Zhishu's words. Although the experience before was indeed very strange, but he came here, and it is impossible to return empty-handed. What if there is a new discovery tonight?
"This"
Gu Siqing and Shen Xing were silent.
Although they were not injured or encountered any danger, the sense of powerlessness shrouded in the black mist still made them a little uncomfortable. If it was a monster, at least they knew what they were facing. But now I don't even know who is doing it.
In this case, what if the monster made a move?Is there a way to resist it?
Song Zhishu looked at the hesitant expressions of several people, but didn't say anything.
It is human nature to feel fear in the face of the unknown, and there is nothing to blame, because even I am worried that something will happen one night later.
"Several fellow daoists, I thought of a way. We tied our bodies with ropes in advance. In this way, even if the black mist hits again tonight, we can still find each other along the ropes. As long as we can get together, we will be together." You can think of a way, break it, find a way to break it, and find the monster that made the attack, how about it?"
Chen Jingyun mentioned a method to deal with the black mist, which is very old, but very useful.
And what he meant was very simple, that is, after the black mist appeared, everyone gathered together and tried to find a way.
Like the previous situation, it came too suddenly, and it was the first time I faced it. Now that I have some experience, I will not be passive in dealing with it.
"I agree with what Mr. Chen said."
Song Zhishu nodded, thinking that the method was good, but this alone was not enough, so he took out the gemstone that had been inscribed long ago from the storage bag, and then said: "This is the gemstone I prepared, and it contains the power of pure yang. If the monster appears If so, it should work.”
He also used this precious jade last night, and it did dispel some of the black mist, but it didn't take long.
Song Zhishu was sure that if the monster appeared, it would definitely be useful.
The purpose of taking it out is to give a few people more confidence.
Otherwise, if you continue to fear like this, even if you force yourself to stay, you will definitely not gain anything tonight.
"This, Song Daoyou is not very good." Lin Cheng said, he could tell at a glance that it was a middle-grade spiritual gem, and the price was at least two thousand spirit stones. With nine people present, it was close to ten thousand spirit stones. It's really embarrassing to continue like this.
The three of them were more familiar with Song Zhishu, and this mission came automatically, so of course they would not leave.
So they all think that if the treasure jade can not be accepted, it is better not to accept it.
Gu Siqing, Shen Xing and the others also nodded. They were willing to stay, but they were just a little worried.
Now that Song Zhishu took out Baoyu, several people were a little embarrassed and felt that they could not accept it directly.
The reason is very simple, now they are performing the task of Wanshi Pavilion, they were moved by seeing the generous rewards before, but in fact, with the abilities of Chen Jingyun and Song Zhishu, it is not difficult to find stronger people.
But the two still chose themselves. If it were at another time, they would not have this opportunity at all.
Now that there is a premonition that there is a crisis, should we back down?Once this is done, who is willing to form a team with several people in the future?
Therefore, when Chen Jingyun spoke, the four of them had already made a decision, and now Zhishu Song took out Baoyu. They knew the reason, and they also knew that having this thing could better deal with the crisis, but they couldn't accept it directly.
After all, this kind of thing is actually considered precious to a few people.
Usually they are not even willing to buy magic weapons.
What's more, Baoyu?
Song Zhishu naturally understood everyone's thoughts. He smiled slightly and spoke softly: "Baoyu is only temporarily loaned to you. If you use it tonight, you can give it to me at the price of raw materials."
Facing the unknown monster, he was not sure whether he could defeat it, and one more person would give him more confidence.
This is not a free gift, but also for myself to survive the crisis and complete the task.
"Then thank you, Mr. Song."
Several people looked at each other and thought it was acceptable, so they immediately put away the precious jade.
Although Chen Jingyun is a scholar of Confucianism, he finally thought that it would be good to have this thing, so he nodded.
Seeing that everyone accepted it, only Yuan Ming was left behind, Song Zhishu turned his head and said, "Friend Daoist Yuan, do you have any concerns?"
"Ah, no, just listen to Mr. Song."
Yuan Ming regained his composure, cupped his hands and took the precious jade, then lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu felt a little strange. After the black mist subsided, he felt that the other party was not right, his mind was not on him at all, and he didn't say much all the time, but the other party didn't open his mouth, so he couldn't ask much.
But his intuition told Song Zhishu that Yuan Ming must have something on his mind, and maybe he encountered a different situation from everyone else.
So tonight, we must pay close attention.
"Okay, that's the plan. Let's stay in Zhuangzi for another night." Seeing that everyone had no objections, Chen Jingyun opened his mouth and confirmed what to do tonight.
At the same time, he found a rope and poured mana into it to make it stronger.
He had a hunch that if he could solve the unknown monster.
Then this time the task can be completed.
After all, the one who can use such a method is definitely the culprit for the disappearance of several villages overnight.
Immediately, the group of ten people stopped talking and meditated and rested to restore mana.
I don't know what's going on tonight, maybe nothing will be discovered like before, or maybe we'll go through a fierce battle, all in all, everyone must ensure that they are in a perfect state and concentrate all their attention.
Time also passed by bit by bit. For monks who have been retreating all year round, a month or even a year is like a blink of an eye.
But today's day seems to be longer than ever.
Everyone is doing their own thing according to plan.
The busiest among them was Li Xiansong, who proposed to arrange a formation around everyone.
Although they knew it was not meaningful to do so, everyone thought it was better to have something than nothing, and finally agreed.
And during this period.
In addition to meditating, Song Zhishu was paying attention to Yuan Ming's state. Although the other party sat cross-legged to practice after work, he opened his eyes from time to time, absent-minded. One of them took out the storage bag, as if he was checking something.
something is wrong
In this regard, Song Zhishu has already made a rough judgment.
Yuan Ming definitely has a secret, and it just happened last night, maybe it has something to do with monsters, but it's not clear what it is.
He also sensed it with awe-inspiring righteousness, and there was no weird aura on the other party, which was normal.
Of course, it is also possible that this is just one of the methods of the demon.
Shaking his head, Song Zhishu stopped thinking about it.
Quietly wait for the time to pass.
Soon, night fell, and Luojiazhuang was still in the original courtyard, but the moonlight on the sky had been completely blocked, and gusts of cool wind continued to hit, and it was destined that this night would not be peaceful.
"The black mist hit yesterday probably at the time of Chou, and it is still half an hour away from now. Please pay attention."
Chen Jingyun tied the rope around everyone's waist, and at the same time attached Confucian righteousness to it. Now they are facing monsters, and against monsters, the best thing to use is the power of Confucianism.
Naturally, Song Zhishu would not be idle, sacrificed the saint's sword fetus, and blessed all the arrogance and righteousness in his body.
The purpose is to be able to predict the arrival of the crisis at the first time.
Thereafter.
Everyone didn't speak, they kept looking around, with mana wandering around them, and at the same time they were holding the precious jade given by Song Zhishu in their hands, they had already concentrated all their attention, as if they were facing a big enemy.
But Luojiazhuang is still very quiet, only the beating of the bonfire and the sound of the wind blowing.
Soon, ugly time came, and nothing changed.
"The demon won't come tonight, right?" Lin Cheng couldn't help but see that the time had passed.
Call ~
But as soon as he finished speaking, it was the same wind as last night.
clang clang ~
The saint's sword fetus was also shaking constantly at this moment, making a violent sword cry.
"coming."
Song Zhishu sensed it immediately, and spoke directly, the strong mana in his body also shook, and at the same time, the precious jade in his hand also exuded wisps of pure yang energy at this moment, ready to strike at any time.
Chen Jingyun also raised his flying sword, and Confucian righteousness poured into it, facing the direction the wind was blowing from.
Everyone is well-prepared, and they will attack strongly when they find out that something is wrong.
"Black mist, it's black mist."
Wang Chong opened his mouth and looked at the black mist that suddenly appeared in front of him.
This time they were prepared, so they all saw that the black mist came from the east, covering everything in front of them.
"Stand together." Song Zhishu made everyone gather together, because he found that the change of Haoran's righteousness was stronger than before. Obviously, the monster hidden in the dark was being solved, but it was at the moment when he spoke , The black mist enveloped everyone.
puff~
The next moment, the rope that tied everyone up broke.
Song Zhishu felt that Yuanshen was shielded, and the scene in front of him began to change.
Chen Jingyun, Lin Cheng, and Wang Chong all disappeared, and everything disappeared, leaving only the black mist in front of them.
"Is it still not enough?" Song Zhishu's complexion changed slightly when he saw this, and he immediately looked for Chen Jingyun according to the direction he remembered, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, because he realized that what he was stepping on was not the one in Luojiazhuang. The road, but the grass.
The black mist didn't seem to be as dense as it was at the beginning, and it was a little thinner, and the surrounding scenes of tens of meters were all brought into view.
There is grass at the foot, shrubs next to it, and tall trees in the distance.
And Song Zhishu was standing on a mountain road at the moment.
"The technique of teleportation?"
Seeing this, he frowned. When he encountered the black mist yesterday, he was in Luojiazhuang, but today he changed to a different place. Obviously, someone used the technique of teleportation to send him to this mountain road , has obviously been far away from Luojiazhuang.
Song Zhishu remembers that there is also a hill with lush foliage hundreds of meters behind Luojiazhuang.
But not sure if it's the same one.
"Did Yuan Ming also encounter this situation last night?"
Song Zhishu said to himself, he observed everyone during the day, only Yuan Ming was wrong, which was obviously completely different from what happened to him, but he was not sure what happened, he could only guess that it might be the same as now.
And whether Chen Jingyun and others were also moved out of Luojiazhuang.
In this regard, he is not clear.
As for leaving, Song Zhishu didn't think about it. He tried many times last night. Although the place is different now, it should be the same. He will definitely not be able to go out. Even if he leaves, he will return to the same place in the end.
What's next?Can we just wait?
Be calm.
Song Zhishu told himself that now is not the time to think about those, the most important thing is to understand the current situation.
Immediately he raised his head and looked around. The black mist still existed, but it wasn't that he couldn't see his fingers. He could see the scene tens of meters away. Not far away, there was also a mountain road. Because of the low terrain, Song Zhishu could see it clearly The whole picture, but you can't see it from farther away, and the same is true for Yuanshen's sweeping, obviously blocked by the black mist on purpose.
"Since the demon that shot made me see further, it must have some intentions, but what is it going to do?"
"If this is the mountain behind Luojiazhuang, is there any difference here?"
Song Zhishu kept analyzing the current situation.
Because he has already determined in his heart that since the monster sent himself out of Luojiazhuang, there is a great probability that it will appear, but what is the purpose?
And just as he was thinking, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at another mountain path below. On that mountain path, three figures suddenly appeared, walking towards the mountain.
"Someone?"
Song Zhishu was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't choose to approach. Instead, he stood on the spot and released his primordial spirit, wanting to confirm whether the story of those people was true or not.
As his primordial spirit continued to scan, he found that these three people really existed, and they were not illusions deliberately created.
"A mortal? How could there be a mortal?"
Song Zhishu was completely puzzled. He could clearly see that these people were wearing ordinary sackcloth clothes, with hatchets in their waists. Their expressions were relaxed, talking and laughing, without any special aura. They were just mortals. Judging by their clothes Appears to be a nearby woodcutter.
But now it is clearly late at night, how could someone go up the mountain? Where did these people come from?
Isn't the nearest place, Luojiazhuang, empty?Also, can't these people see the weird black mist around them?
Questions appeared in Song Zhishu's mind one after another, making him more confused and unable to understand the current situation.
"roar~"
Suddenly, the roar of a beast interrupted Song Zhishu's thoughts.
He immediately raised his head, and immediately saw a fierce tiger appearing on the mountain road below. The tiger was thick and looked extremely fierce, and it was less than 20 meters away from the three woodcutters.
And the ferocious scarlet eyes of the fierce tiger were staring at the three people not far in front of them, as if they would pounce on them at any moment.
But the three woodcutters, as if they didn't see anything, still walked forward on their own.
According to this situation, the three of them would become the prey of the tiger in a short while.
"Rescue."
Seeing this, Song Zhishu made a decision in just a split second.
After all, he had carefully observed that the three woodcutters were ordinary people, and they would definitely die if they encountered a tiger. Although he didn't know why they appeared, but now was not the time to hesitate. Now that he saw them, he naturally couldn't leave them behind. .
"Don't worry, little friend."
But the next moment, an old voice appeared.
Song Zhishu turned his head and found an old man next to the tree opposite him. He didn't know when he appeared. The man was covered in black robes, with a pair of piercing eyes staring at him, making people feel chills.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu didn't intend to pay attention to it, but he felt that the awe-inspiring righteousness in his body was constantly right, indicating a crisis.
"demon?"
He looked at the old man in front of him, and said two words lightly.
Judging from the awe-inspiring Sanskrit voice, the other party is definitely a monster.
"It doesn't matter if the old man is a demon or not."
The old man didn't seem surprised that Song Zhishu saw his identity directly, but he just said to himself: "The important thing is, is my little friend really going to save those mortals?"
"Their fate is fixed. In this life, they will be buried in the tiger's mouth. Even if the little friend is saved, the result will be the same tomorrow."
The old man's voice was flat, but there was an undeniable tone.
It's like what I just said will definitely come true.
He looked at Song Zhishu and smiled.
For the sake of the other party, the old man can be said to have made sufficient preparations, so he did not hesitate to move Song Zhishu out alone.
It is to create the most favorable environment for yourself.
Confucian scholars.
Naturally, it cannot be as simple as before to arouse the greed in his heart.
Special means must be used.
"If I save them once, they will live one more day. They are destined to die, or they will die in front of me. They are two different things."
Song Zhishu was unmoved, and while looking at the old man, the holy sword fetus in his hand trembled slightly.
Of course, he didn't want to fight the other party, but was going to rescue the three woodcutters.
Although the people in front of him are dangerous, the situation on the mountain road below is even more urgent.
That was the life of three people.
Although I don't know what the purpose of the monster in front of me is, but no matter what, the three people in front of me must be saved.
"Actually, if you don't save these mortals, it will be more beneficial to you."
The old man spoke again, and at the same time took out treasures in his hand, and then said: "This is a whole set of top-quality ancient artifacts, as well as more precious things, which are what my little friend needs most. Of course, the old man has no other intentions, just want to It’s just for Xiaoyou to obey the destiny, they are destined to die, if Xiaoyou pretends not to see it, then all these things will belong to you, Xiaoyou.”
"Of course, no third person will know what happened today. Besides, these three people are just mortals. If they die, they will die. They won't affect anything."
Speaking of this, he showed a smile on his face: "But you are different, my friend. You are a monk and a scholar of Confucianism. You have unlimited potential in the future. If you have these things to help you, you will have higher achievements in the future."
The old man kept talking and seducing, letting Song Zhishu make a choice.
Especially in the process of speaking, the old man exuded wisps of inexplicable aura, which made his words more convincing.
And in his hands, treasures appeared one after another, including pills, flying swords, talismans, and so on.
All kinds of rays of light are surging, dazzling, but everything related to practice is available.
These treasures add up to more than 20 pieces, and each one is of the highest quality, any monk will be moved when he sees it.
More importantly, there is a small tower in it.
There are seven floors in the small tower, and the aura it exudes is very heavy, compared to all other treasures.
Wisps of light continue to rise and fall on the small tower, resplendent and dazzing.
After Song Zhishu saw it, he couldn't help but move slightly.
Because it is a Taoist instrument.
It is a real Tao tool. As the name suggests, it is a magic weapon of the Tao. This kind of thing can no longer be measured by spirit stones, because the Tao tool, even in a fairy school like Taihao Sword Sect, only true disciples You will have it, and it is the kind that belongs to the hole card, and you will not take it out easily, so you can imagine its preciousness.
The reason why Song Zhishu is so sure is because he has seen the Taoist artifact.
Li Qingzhou's Zhoutian star bracelet.
There is also Shen Yuan in the hand of Mu Changge's maid, which are all Taoist weapons.
Song Zhishu has seen the power of these two Taoist implements before. They are very strong and extremely powerful. They are treasures in the true sense, so Song Zhishu understands the meaning of Taoist implements. It will greatly increase your strength.
And such a treasure is right in front of you, within reach!
