Fu Shifeng

Chapter 281 Three Corpses Attack

Take a boat across Dongting Lake, enter the Li River to the west, go upstream and enter the Lizhou boundary.

When they arrived at Shimen, the current was fast and the river was narrow, making it difficult for the official boat to sail. Cheng Sanwu and his party had no choice but to leave the boat and go ashore towards Wulingyuan.

Along the way, the crowds gradually became thinner. Although there were dense peach blossoms on both sides of the strait and the peaks and valleys in the distance changed, the road became increasingly rugged and difficult to navigate.

Determined to eliminate the great monster in the Xiaoxiang land, Cheng Sanwu did not waste time. When ready, he left Baling with more than a dozen subordinates, with Mu Xiangling as the guide, and headed for Wulingyuan, Lizhou. The first target was at The peach blossom essence that causes trouble in the mountains.

"This flower spirit can also cause mischief?" Cheng Sanwu looked at the list. The peach blossom spirit is one of the few evil spirits that has not drawn graphics.

"Why not?" Mu Xiangling rode a gray donkey sideways. Although the road was uneven, the donkey seemed to be walking on flat ground without any effort.

"I have seen several flower spirits in Luoyang, and they are called good at serving people." Cheng Sanwu chuckled: "Those flower spirits know how to treat guests. Although they make money based on their appearance, they do not steal or rob, which impressed me. Pretty good."

"Luoyang is located in the Central Plains, where humanity is at its peak. Even if the flowers, plants and trees are mature, they can easily appreciate the beauty of the world and know how to get along with mortals." Mu Xiangling looked around: "There are few cities and towns in Wulingyuan area, just rural countryside. The further we go, the more people there are. It’s hard to know people’s affairs when flowers and plants are mature, they can only grow as they please without knowing right and wrong.”

Cheng Sanwu looked at the brochure and said, "I see what is written on it. At best, this peach blossom essence will only seduce the woodcutters who go into the mountains to collect firewood. It will not cause any serious harm."

"There is actually flat land deep in Wulingyuan. A long time ago, several Central Plains nobles moved here to build forts to guard against the barbarians." Mu Xiangling raised his hand and pointed to a ruins on a high slope not far away.

Cheng Sanwu rode forward. The ruins were built with stones and looked like the base of a watchtower. There might have been a wooden frame above it, but it was now in a state of decay.

"You also built a watchtower? It looks like a big family." Cheng Sanwu asked: "Where have all these big families gone?"

Mu Xiangling shook his head: "They didn't go anywhere, they just disappeared deep in Wulingyuan."

"Disappeared?"

"Xiaojun once visited this place and found that the original stronghold of the rich clan was shrouded in a peach blossom barrier, and all the people inside were missing." Mu Xiangling replied.

"What's the peach blossom barrier?" Cheng Sanwu was puzzled.

Mu Xiangling smiled and said, "Actually, it's similar to the cloud barrier on Junshan Island."

"Enchanted formation? Does a peach blossom essence from a mountainous background also know this?" Cheng Sanwu was greatly surprised.

Mu Xiangling raised his hand and stroked the short mane on the back of the donkey's neck: "The formation of enchantments does not necessarily rely entirely on talismans, secret spells and magical spells. The heaven, earth, mountains and rivers are mysteriously created, and there are many unique spiritual realms. For the world, It’s no different from the enchantment maze.”

Cheng Sanwu scratched his short beard under his chin and nodded: "I seem to have seen similar places in the Western Regions. From the outside, it looks like a pile of strange-shaped rocks, but once you walk in, you will get lost. Some business travelers want to go there They looked for a shady place to rest under a rock, but the whole group was trapped inside, completely depleted of food and water, and even the camels died inside.”

Mu Xiangling had never been to a place like the Western Regions. When he heard Cheng Sanwu's story, his eyes lit up: "Then how did Zhaoyang Lord get out?"

Cheng Sanwu patted the maroon horse on his crotch: "It was all thanks to her. I walked around in it for a few times and came out smoothly."

The big maroon horse snorted, and Mu Xiangling kept staring at it with curious eyes, murmuring: "Could this be the dragon colt?"

Cheng Sanwu ignored the matter and continued: "I understand, the peach blossom spirit used some tricks to stun all the families who moved here, and maybe eat them as flower fertilizer, and you won't Know exactly where it is hiding now."

"Even if flowers, plants and trees become spirits, it is difficult to leave the place where they are rooted, so the peach blossom spirit should still be somewhere in Wulingyuan." Mu Xiangling said: "As long as we can find its original location and cut it down, it will be eliminated. "

Cheng Sanwu suddenly asked: "Is it true that when flowers, plants and trees become spirits, they cannot leave the place where they are rooted?"

"That's not necessarily the case." Mu Xiangling's expression was lively: "If you have the ability to cultivate into a human form, it means that you have transcended the limitations of your original body and can walk freely anywhere in the world."

Hearing the words "Cultivating the human form", Cheng Sanwu's high-spirited face immediately turned cold. Without responding, he gently pinched the horse's belly and sped up slightly.

After walking for a long time, the group finally found a desolate village at dusk. There were only a dozen households left in it. They could not speak Chinese fluently, their clothes were shabby, their faces were sallow, and they were wary of outsiders.

Cheng Sanwu was too lazy to pay attention to these people, so Mu Xiangling came forward and communicated with the villagers in unintelligible dialect.

"Let's find out, from here to the northwest, about a day and a half's walk on the mountain road, is the forbidden area." Mu Xiangling came back and said: "The villagers here have word of mouth that there are man-eating monsters in the mountains, and they dare not go deep into the mountains. Go inside."

"Okay, rest early and try to get to the forbidden area within tomorrow." Cheng Sanwu looked at the fire in front of him, his eyes filled with fire.

……

The invisible Rou Zhaojun stood outside the mountain village, looking at the embroidered messenger on guard, but did not approach.

She didn't need to get close. She was slightly lowered and her white onion-like fingers touched the ground lightly, so she could hear all the conversations in the mountain village.

After learning about the forbidden area, Rou Zhaojun did not hesitate. His figure was like light smoke, and he galloped northwest along the rugged mountain road. At the same time, he transformed into several illusory figures and went in different directions.

When the sky was completely dark, and the mountain forest seemed to be shrouded in thick ink, and no light could be seen anymore, Rou Zhaojun slowed down a little.

Sensing something strange in the air in a hidden mountain col, Rouzhaojun rushed towards it. However, as soon as he got closer, he felt that the fog in the mountain forest was getting thicker. His senses and perceptions were invisibly disturbed, and his orientation was reversed.

Rou Zhaojun immediately discovered that the fog was very close to the cloud barrier on Junshan Island, and it must have been set up by the Yunmeng Pavilion owner.

When they were on Junshan Island, Rou Zhaojun and Chongguang Jun tested the cloud barrier separately. She found that if there was no clear hostile action, the cloud barrier would only hinder the movement, making it difficult to determine the direction and make people get lost. But once you try to break through the formation and break through, various changes will occur within the cloud barrier to resist foreign enemies.

Chongguang Junqing was violent and violent. He once used two tunable iron rulers in the cloud barrier without any reservation, and the five-note resonance was intended to destroy the magic that maintained the cloud barrier. As a result, he was attacked by strange vines and almost couldn't escape.

Now seeing this strange cloud barrier, Mr. Rouzhao thought for a moment, and when he was about to take action, he suddenly noticed that the fog gradually dissipated like an ebbing tide, and a pure and vast Taoist magic power filled the surrounding heaven and earth.

"Oh?" Mr. Rou Zhao made an unexpected sound, and immediately jumped up to the top of the tree canopy. A vague figure could be seen standing in the sky, with talismans swirling around his body and auras flashing.

Mr. Hong Ya was casting a spell to remove the cloud barrier set by Mu Xiaojun when he suddenly sensed a familiar aura. He looked back and met Rou Zhaojun's eyes. Although the two of them were hundreds of feet apart, they recognized each other just at a glance. Mr. Hongya, who had always been indifferent and emotionless, rarely showed a look of surprise and anger, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Zombie Demon!"

The gentle and charming face of Rou Zhaojun turned into a strange smile: "Hong Ya, I haven't seen you for many years, and you have changed your skin again."

Without saying a word, Mr. Hong Ya waved his sleeves and held the nine-section bamboo stick in his hand. In an instant, Hao Guang broke through the darkness and illuminated the surrounding mountains and rivers!

"Ling Bao Ce Staff? I've seen it before."

Rou Zhaojun was not in a hurry, and gently pulled off the silk belt around his waist, and turned it into a long streamer in the wind. It kept shaking like a living thing, and the splashing ground quickly grew in size, turning into a picture full of evil curses and ghost inscriptions. The giant flags, the streamers on both sides are flying like claws, and the strange purple light is flowing up and down, and the momentum is not inferior to the Lingbao Ce Staff.

Sensing that the evil flag was full of vicious power that invaded lives and disturbed the three realms, Mr. Hong Ya did not dare to ignore it. He waved his Lingbao C staff and let it fall, direct bright light, and powerful wind and thunder struck down together, intending to destroy the evil flag.

Rouzhaojun's laughter echoed, as if dozens of people were laughing at the same time. She raised her hand and flicked it, the evil flags swayed, and thousands of dead souls poured out together, comparable to dark clouds, blocking all the bright light, wind and thunder.

It was obviously a powerful weapon to restrain demons and monsters, but its power was far less than expected. Mr. Hong Ya only felt that the place where Hao Guang passed by was like being stuck in mud, and the power of wind and thunder could not even stir up the dark clouds and tear them apart.

"It seems like you haven't made much progress over the years."

Rou Zhaojun slowly flew up from the dark clouds, and the voices of men, women, old and children were mixed together, which was very strange.

Mr. Hong Ya kept silent. He clasped his fingers with his left hand and waved the bamboo stick with his right hand. Two guardian gods in red clothes and golden tassels, holding melons, hammers, axes and axes, appeared together and flew toward Mr. Rou Zhao. The fire is burning, intending to capture the opponent.

"How can it be so easy?"

Rou Zhaojun chuckled, and his body shape changed into three. Besides the original beautiful woman, the other two figures were that of an old man in rich clothes and a fat man. They described different temperaments, making it difficult to imagine how Rou Zhaojun could change. Out of this kind of avatar.

However, Mr. Hong Ya understands very well that these three are exactly the three corpses of the human body. The upper corpse is fond of treasures and has no tolerance for joy and anger. The middle corpse is fond of taste and has stagnant desires. The lower corpse is fond of lust and has exhausted its energy. It is a person who practices Taoism. Difficulties that must be overcome.

The origin of this corpse demon is mysterious. Mr. Hong Ya had fought against her after he had mastered the Grain God Immortality Technique and passed on his divine consciousness for the first time. The two clashed intermittently for nearly a thousand years, and neither could completely eliminate the other.

The last time Mr. Hong Ya fought against the corpse demon was more than two hundred years ago. At that time, the corpse demon was defeated miserably and was completely destroyed physically and mentally. Unexpectedly, it appeared again after so many years!

I saw the three corpses moving at the same time, causing the dark clouds to roll up, as if countless dead souls were struggling for help, reaching out to pull at them. The two protector gods fell into it, their armors were torn, their weapons were rusty, and they lost their majesty.

Mr. Hongya looked solemn. What this corpse demon is best at is invading the three levels and corrupting the practice. The evil flags greatly enhance the zombie demon's magical power. Even the guardian generals who have been inherited by Hongya for generations are easily invaded by it. Dyed, no longer bright.

"Hong Ya, do you only have this trick? Or do you want to call Fu Shifeng and others to help?" The three corpses spoke at the same time, either sinisterly, triumphantly, or seductively laughing into their ears, constantly stirring up emotions. , which makes people feel very irritated.

Mr. Hong Ya knew in his heart that facing the corpse demon was always dangerous, so he immediately held Yuan Shouyi in his arms, holding the Ling Bao C staff horizontally in front of him, and the flowing crystal jade light hovering up and down, protecting his body from evil and isolating nuisances.

"It turns out that you had the help of the chamberlain, no wonder you were able to refine such evil things!"

Mr. Hong Ya looked at the huge evil flag and couldn't imagine how many innocent lives had to be murdered to gather such dead souls. In order to allow these monsters and monsters to be used by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they have become a great harm to the world!

Rou Zhaojun showed a fanatical and sick look, and his plump body stood on the rolling dark clouds and couldn't help twisting: "Not enough, this is far from enough! I just want to hear you scold me, scold me hard! Use all the dirty words Insult me ​​with foul language!"

Mr. Hong Ya turned a blind eye to this, brushed his five fingers over the Lingbao Ce Staff, and the ancient characters "birds and insects" appeared between his eyebrows. His energy entered the mysterious orifice of the Valley God, and the great magic power passed down for thousands of years was attracted and slowly seeped into the present world.

Sensing a deep and unpredictable Qi permeating the air, the smile on Rou Zhaojun's face became even brighter, the three corpses returned to one body, the evil flags fluttered, and the strange purple light gradually condensed.

But when I saw a crack on the top of the evil flag, it was like opening one eye, and the evil light bloomed, like a torrent pouring out of a broken dam!

The magic power around Mr. Hong Ya suddenly condensed, the surrounding world fell silent, and the evil light stagnated before it reached him.

But Rouzhaojun was still aware of her surroundings, and she saw that this was a technique of air restraint, but the range of the restraint was very large, and all activities were prohibited, so she could not make any response.

However, outside the air barrier, everything is still moving. As the sky spins and the earth spins, movement and stillness touch each other. Things within the air barrier are as if they are being squeezed by the rock foundation, and the majestic force is instantly crushing them!

Rou Zhaojun could not escape, and was immediately overwhelmed by the huge force of the spinning sky. The evil flags were overturned, and the dark clouds were annihilated. His beautiful and delicate body was crazily ravaged like rags, and blood burst out from the seven orifices, and he was thrown to the depths of the dense forest. , no sound.

But this is a method that does not distinguish between friend and foe, almost destroying both jade and stone. Mr. Hongya himself was also affected. Although he had been blessed with protective power in advance, the liquid crystal jade light burst like a bubble in the face of the huge power of heaven and earth.

Mr. Hong Ya suffered the shock and was knocked flying very far away. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared among the mountains and mountains without a trace.

……

The shaking on the ground made Cheng Sanwu, who was sleeping against the wall, open his eyes. Qin Wangshu and Mu Xiangling were obviously aware of it. The chickens and dogs in the mountain village seemed to be making a fuss all of a sudden.

Several embroidered messengers rushed over to find out what happened, but Cheng Sanwu waved his hands calmly: "It's nothing important, let's go and rest separately."

Everyone did not dare to disobey and stepped back. Cheng Sanwu glanced at Mu Xiangling. He obviously sensed what was going on. His face was slightly nervous, but he did not dare to say it clearly.

Since she didn't say anything, Cheng Sanwu simply didn't ask and said to Qin Wangshu, "Bring me some wine."

Qin Wangshu didn't know why, but he handed the wine bag to Cheng Sanwu and asked in a low voice: "What happened?"

"Do you know what kind of calculation is the best?" Cheng Sanwu took a sip of wine and smiled.

Qin Wangshu shook his head, and Cheng Sanwu replied: "You don't have to do anything. Those guys who plot against you will kill each other bloody!"
