Heaven's Path

Chapter 40

While the two were chatting and laughing, Chen Yunsheng's eyes accidentally fell on an old woman on the street. She was 70 years old, her face was wrinkled and tired, her body was leaning forward, her back was very hunchbacked, and she was wearing a linen padded robe. , a lot of patches, looks shabby.The old woman walked very slowly, stopping every step, which was very laborious.

Suddenly, the sound of horses roaring and horseshoes came from the end of the street, and the noise of people bustling became louder and louder.A tall chestnut horse galloped through the street like no one else, with a knight in heavy armor sitting on the saddle, followed by a dozen people dressed in the same clothes, and finally followed by an eight-horse horse The gilded carriage, obviously these people are clearing the way for the carriage.

The flow of people on the street was separated into the shops on both sides in an instant. Some people had no time to dodge and simply jumped into the lake. Although the water in the lake was bitter, it was better than being trampled by horses.Seeing that the horse was about to collide with the old woman, she looked at the huge creature behind her in horror, her old body could not escape this sudden change at all.

Chen Yunsheng's body moved slightly, and he had passed through the window of Tianfu Building, standing between the tall horse and the old woman.He stretched out his left palm, and Tianxuan's domineering energy was condensed in the palm, forming a yellow wall of light.The chestnut horse's forward charge was so fierce, but it couldn't shake the light wall at all, so it was stopped abruptly.Chen Yunsheng's feet sank deeply into the mud.

The horse immediately foamed at the mouth, injured its muscles and bones, and was no longer alive.The person on the horse was even more miserable, his spine was broken, and his head was limply drooping on his side.

The knights who came up one after another couldn't help but gasped when they saw this surprise. They were not stupid people, so they immediately reined in their horses and dared not move forward.One of the leading knights pointed at Chen Yunsheng with a horsewhip and asked, "Where are you, you dare to block our way, do you know who is sitting in the carriage?"

Chen Yunsheng shook his head, and said coldly: "If you don't want to die, get out!"

He released Tianxuan's domineering aura, and the horse under the knight's crotch couldn't bear the aura, turned his head and ran back.At this time, the door of the carriage at the end of the team was opened, and a person came down. He stomped the ground with his left foot, and a cloud of blue water spirit condensed in front of him, and the out-of-control horse was as honest as a deflated ball. It stopped in front of him. This hand was obviously more powerful than Chen Yunsheng's just now.

The man walked up to Chen Yunsheng, cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency is supernatural, can you give me a name?"

Chen Yunsheng carefully observed the person in front of him, and saw that he was handsome, with fair skin, shining eyes, in his early thirties, wearing a white fur coat, and a psychic jade around his waist, which made people want to get close a feeling of.

He also clasped his fists and said, "It's just the next passer-by. I saw your cavalry running wildly and almost hurt the old man, so I made a move to train him."

These few words were neither humble nor overbearing, obviously did not take the other party seriously.

The man in white smiled and said: "These subordinates are all vulgar fellows. They don't understand the literati's etiquette. Thanks to your action, a disaster was avoided. Ling Hanyu, the captain of Team C of the Sitian Pavilion, saw your action like lightning just now. It's very inconvenient for Han Yu to ask for advice in the downtown area, if you don't mind, I'll come to Sitian Pavilion another day to give you some advice."

Chen Yunsheng looked at the man in front of him who was lifting weights lightly, his face became more and more cold, and he replied: "Chen Yunsheng. If he has time in the future, he will definitely ask for advice."

Ling Hanyu smiled slightly, and floated back into the car, as if he didn't touch the ground.Several knights dragged the dead onto their horses and disappeared at the intersection of the street.

Liu Xiaoshan saw this scene clearly, she lightly helped the old man up, and wiped off the dust on the cotton robe.The old woman thanked tremblingly, Chen Yunsheng took out a hundred and ten taels of silver from his pocket, stuffed it into the old man's arms, and said lightly: "You are too old, don't walk around the street in the future, these taels are enough for you Hire a girl to take care of the daily life and take care of her for the rest of her life."

The old man looked at Chen Yunsheng with cloudy eyes, she sighed softly, took the silver, and left slowly.Looking at her back, Chen Yunsheng was suffocated for a while, and he asked silently: "Is it the way of heaven to make the weak people decadent and the powerful ones lawless?"

Liu Xiaoshan stood beside him in a considerate manner, holding Chen Yunsheng's left hand with his right hand, a gust of coolness swept over him, and gradually wiped away the restlessness in his heart.

……

It was already afternoon when Chen Yunsheng came back from Tianfulou, and before entering the house, he saw Black Bones pacing in his room, as if there was something urgent.Hei Gu raised his head suddenly, looked at Chen Yunsheng with two eyes that were suddenly blazing, and said, "Brother Chen, there is something strange to say, and we need to go together."

"It's definitely not easy to make Brother Black Bone strange. I'm interested to hear about it." Chen Yunsheng walked into the room.

"The mountain patrollers arranged by Li Tiezui at Shuangyi Mountain said that the mountain had been shrouded in white mist for the past two days. The ancient tree's lair, the mysterious ghost tree he summoned that day, is not simple, and it is also very useful to the old man, so I want to investigate it."

Naturally, Chen Yunsheng would not object to this opportunity to increase his experience, and immediately said: "Okay, then let's find out now."

Chen Yunsheng took the black bones and drove to Dunguang, and arrived at the foot of Shuangyi Mountain in about two hours.The mountain is named Shuangyi because the yang side of the mountain and the yin side of the mountain are symmetrical.

The location of the ancient wooden Taoist temple is the hub of this mountain. It can be said that there are four seasons in a day and yin and yang in a moment.They first wanted to find the gang members that Li Tiezui arranged to guard the mountain. According to Li Tiezui's description, he quickly found a row of temporary wooden houses built with logs on the mountainside, and met more than a dozen members of the Youlong gang. help the public.

The leader among them is Zhao Dabao, he is thick on the outside and delicate on the inside, and he is one of the younger generation of the Youlong Gang who is very capable of handling affairs.When Zhao Dabao saw Chen Yunsheng coming, he rushed forward to greet him, clasped his fists and said, "Chen Xianshi is here, I'm so polite, my name is Zhao Dabao, and I'm in charge of the brothers stationed at Shuangyi Mountain. I don't know that the fairy master came because of Bai Wu Things?"

Chen Yunsheng clasped his fists and said yes.

Zhao Dabao said: "This incident happened about three days ago. That morning, I saw that Shuangyi Mountain was shrouded in white mist from the mountainside up. I thought that the mist would dissipate when the sun came out at noon. , who would have thought that it would become thicker and thicker, and then it would turn out to be like milk.”

"In the afternoon, I sent two brothers, Wang Pengfei and Qin Wenzhong, up the mountain to see what was going on. But as soon as the two of them left and never came back, I felt that something was wrong, so I didn't dare to act rashly, so I sent someone to report to the leader. The brothers who guard the mountain these days They didn’t even dare to go to the mountains to investigate again.”

Chen Yunsheng pondered for a moment and said: "Did you see anything unusual about the birds and beasts on the mountain in the past two days?"

Zhao Dabao shook his head and said, "I haven't seen any unusual behavior from birds or beasts. Today at noon we caught a wild boar to beat its teeth. Master Chen Xianshi, I, Zhao Dabao, was a hunter before I joined the gang. I walked in the mountains all the year round. They can often perceive dangers in the mountains and forests in advance."

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice a little, moved his body closer to Chen Yunsheng, and said, "The white mist this time scares me. If you want to go up the mountain, you should be more careful."

Chen Yunsheng understood the situation almost, bid farewell to Zhao Dabao, and walked up the mountain alone.When you go to a place where there is no one, you will release the black bones.The two did not drive away, but walked up the mountain, in order not to miss any clues.

At the beginning, the fog was not too thick, and you could still see objects within ten feet. As you walked up the mountain, the fog became thicker, and finally you could only see things within one foot in front of you.What made Chen Yunsheng feel uneasy was that his divine sense couldn't penetrate the milky fog.

The two walked for an hour, and the surrounding ruins gradually increased, and there were large pieces of rubble all over the ground, obviously it was the place where the fierce battle was fought that day.He turned around and wanted to say something to the black bone, but suddenly found that there was nothing behind him, and the black bone had disappeared.

Chen Yunsheng's heart trembled, he couldn't see anything in the white mist, and his spiritual thoughts were also blocked. If he lost contact with the black bone, would it really be impossible to shout with his throat.

At this moment, the two sides of the white mist parted, and the black bone appeared. He didn't speak, but waved to Chen Yunsheng, signaling him to come over.

Intuition made Chen Yunsheng not go there, but said vigilantly: "Brother Black Bone, why did you suddenly disappear just now?"

Hei Gu still didn't speak, but pointed at Chen Yunsheng's back with his finger.Chen Yunsheng looked back consciously, but didn't find anything. He thought something was wrong in his heart, and at the same time he felt a bad wind blowing in front of him.He circled around his body domineeringly in Tianxuan, and leaped away to one side. At the same time, with the dragon and phoenix swords in his hands, the electric glow crackled.

The black bones changed at this time, the black skeleton gradually melted together, the color changed from black to gray and white, and finally turned into a mass of human figures.Although this thing has a head, it has no facial features. It is just sunken in the eyes and mouth, which looks very strange.

Before Chen Yunsheng could finish his transformation, his figure had already cut to Bai Ying's side, and the phoenix blade fell off. Bai Ying's head moved and rolled to the ground with a grunt.

Bai Ying did not fall down, but hastily retreated into the thick fog, which was beyond Chen Yunsheng's expectation.At this moment, the airflow behind him was disturbed, as if something came out of the ground.

Chen Yunsheng looked back and saw the black bone standing behind him in good condition, holding a white shadow in his hand, looking at himself with a kind of vigilant eyes.

"Have you encountered this thing too?" Chen Yunsheng asked.

"Yes, he turned into you and attacked me just now, it seems that we should be more careful. There is an unusual weirdness on this mountain." Hei Bone said cautiously.

"We need a way to identify each other." Chen Yunsheng suggested.

Hei Bone thought for a while, walked to Chen Yunsheng's side, stretched out two bones and pointed at Chen Yunsheng's shoulders.Chen Yunsheng only felt three chilly auras coming, and he knew in his heart that this was the code used to identify the black bones.

At that moment, he drove the spiritual energy in his body and spread it along Hei Gu's finger, a total of four waves, and Hei Gu withdrew his finger.The white mist in front of them was really weird, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to explain the secret code, so they used this method to inform each other.
