Who is still a serious fox monster these days

Chapter 62 Array

The mountain spirit hurried to the human village and returned with worries.

Just as the mountain god said, it went to lobby as a spirit, and the hunters in the village almost killed the guy directly.

Fortunately, it could talk to people, and the content of its lobbying was for the sake of the village. In the end, the hunters just drove it away.

"Ugh···"

Sighing softly, it looked back at the smoky village again, and finally shook its head and left.

However, as it walked, it felt that something was wrong.

Obviously it returned the same way it came from, but what about the mountain it came from?

Such a big mountain disappeared out of thin air?

But as the guardian of the mountain, it can clearly perceive that Qingyuan Mountain is right in front of it.

"Could it be the master?"

It said something to itself, then closed its eyes and walked forward.

But after walking for a quarter of an hour with eyes closed, it found that it had reached the bamboo forest behind the mountain, and the Qingyuan Mountain it sensed had already arrived behind itself.

what happened?

I obviously didn't turn the corner. It stands to reason that if I go straight, I should enter the mountain. Why did I go around the mountain?

Unable to understand it, it finally couldn't help but said:

"Master! The little one is back. I hope I can let him in."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were clouds and mist rolling in front of his eyes.

Qingyuan Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, looming.

"Come up."

Chen Yuan's voice sounded in its ears, and Shan Ling couldn't help feeling a little more in awe, bowing his head and answering: "Yes!"

Before seeing what Chen Yuan did, it had always felt that Chen Yuan was a wild temple god who didn't know where he came from.

The dove occupies the magpie's nest, and it uses illusion to make it fight to the death with the black snake, thus depriving it of the mountain god position in its previous life.

Therefore, it was not very convinced of Chen Yuan from the bottom of its heart.

Now that it saw Chen Yuan's methods, the dissatisfaction in its heart was finally extinguished.

After all, it can hide the entire mountain and let those who enter the mountain unknowingly bypass it, even if it was in its previous life, it could not do it.

Before returning to the mountain temple, it bowed sincerely and said:

"Master's supernatural powers are astonishing, he will definitely be able to protect Qingyuan Mountain up and down."

This mountain was originally called Qingyuan Mountain...

Chen Yuan secretly paid in his heart, and then said: "Failed to convince the villagers at the foot of the mountain?"

"Master is so predictable, it is true."

"Forget it, according to the bird spirit, there is still one day left for the beast tide to reach this mountain. Then you can go there again and save as many as you can. Now, just relax and listen to my orders."

Shan Ling bowed and bowed: "But according to the master's arrangement."

As it said that, a virtual image of the formation diagram suddenly appeared in its mind.

"This is the 28-constellation magic element array, which can make those who enter the array lose their way without knowing it."

"In addition to this effect, this formation can also use the power of the stars to condense the four images."

"If the beast tide is too large and the phantom array cannot bear it, you can use the power of the four elephants to forcibly exclude part of the beast tide. This requires a formation leader."

Hearing this, Shan Ling said in fear:
"Sir, I'm afraid I'm too weak to handle such a big task because of my humble strength."

"Since I let you go, I have my own considerations. You don't need to worry. I will hold the mountain god's order to help you."

Hearing that Chen Yuan had already made proper arrangements, Shan Ling bowed and said, "Then it's all up to the master."

"You enter the formation now and become familiar with the four phenomena of Xingxu Ning."

"The seven places in the east, the image of a blue dragon, can gather forest trees and drive the dragon to swing its tail."

"In the seven places in the west, the image of a white tiger can become a fierce roaring golden wind, frightening away the tide of beasts."

"The seven constellations in the south, the image of the vermilion bird, can become an invisible fire, and drive away the birds and beasts."

"Qisu in the north, the image of Xuanwu, can move rivers and stones, and block the way."

"Try one by one, so as not to be at a loss when the beasts swarm."

"I will obey my orders!"

······
As the sun sets and the smoke rises, Liu Qing returns to the village with a happy face.

Eight hares were tied around his waist, which looked like an apron.

In addition to the hare apron, he was carrying two pheasants in his hands, and a half-sized wild wolf was tied to his back.

The aunt who was sewing in the courtyard saw him and said with envy:
"Hey, brother Qing has a great harvest today. I wonder if my man can bring back two rabbit hairs tonight."

"Haha, there are a lot of prey in the mountains today. Brother Bang must have had a good harvest. In addition, this pheasant should help Grandma An recuperate."

As he spoke, Liu Qing passed a pheasant in his hand over the courtyard wall.

Seeing this, the aunt smiled, put down her needle and thread, grabbed a few jujubes from the dustpan, and ran over, saying:
"Your brother Bang is old, and you are young and strong compared to Brother Qing. Thank you for this chicken. It just so happens that my mother-in-law said that her legs and feet are a little weak these days, so it's good to make up for her. In addition, take these dates back and eat them." , so sweet."

"Thank you, Aunt Fu."

Liu Qing exchanged the pheasant for a few jujubes, thanked him and went to the next household...

When the night was completely dark, he walked into a courtyard and began to boil water to dispose of the remaining four hares and the wolf cubs on their backs.

A one-armed old man walked out of the house, sat on the wooden steps and said:
"What kind of wind is blowing today that made you bump into so many prey?"

Liu Qing smiled and said without looking back:
"I don't know what kind of wind it is blowing. Anyway, there are a lot of prey on the mountain today, and they all seem to be running for their lives. They keep running forward regardless of whether there are traps or not."

The one-armed old man's expression changed when he heard the words, he stood up and said:

"What did you say? They seem to be running for their lives?"

Seeing that the old man's voice was quite excited, Liu Qing turned around in doubt and said:

"Yeah, Uncle Dong, they do seem to be running for their lives. Is there any problem?"

Uncle Dong frowned, and pressed his right hand on his flat left shoulder:
"Do you still remember why I lost my left hand?"

"Uncle Dong, you said that it was during the beast tide more than 50 years ago... Uncle Dong, what do you mean, there is a beast tide coming?"

"It's possible. Go to the river and take a look. Are there any fish in the river? Are the birds that usually make nests still there?"

Seeing Uncle Dong's seriousness, Liu Qing nodded, dropped the blade and the prey in his hand, and ran quickly to the river.

After a long time, he came back out of breath, and said with a serious expression:

"Uncle Dong, there are only a few fish fry left in the river, and all the nesting birds have dispersed."

After a pause, he frowned and added:

"When I entered the mountain this morning, I heard Brother Bang and the others say that a mountain ghost who can only speak human language entered the village in the morning, saying that there will be a beast horde coming soon, and let us migrate to Qingyuan Mountain in the north. He also said that the mountain god on the mountain will protect us."

"Mountain ghost? Qingyuan Mountain?"

Uncle Dong asked a few questions, and when Liu Qing nodded, he frowned and pinched his beard and said:
"The mountain god of Qingyuan Mountain has long ceased to appear, and the temple of the mountain god has also been ruined. The mountain ghost will use ghost cries to confuse people's hearts, and can also confuse wild animals. Maybe it is behind the scenes and wants us all in the village to go to Qingyuan Mountain. ···”

Talking to himself for a while, he looked at Liu Qing with a serious face:
"Go to bed early tonight, and you will go to Qingyuan Mountain with me tomorrow morning. If this is a trap planned by that mountain ghost, I will try my best to give you a chance to report back. If it is not a trap, we will come back together." Let the villagers go to Qingyuan Mountain to take refuge."
