White Bone Monkey King

After arriving at the place where I live.

Jin An finally met the other old men in Laughing Corpse Village.

These old men are older than both the tall and thin old man and the fat old man. They appear to have limited mobility and speak slowly.

After a brief introduction, Jin An, Master Yiyun, and Qi Bo lived in the same room.

Ayimaimaiti and Aheqi, people from the Western Regions, lived in another room.

After the others settled in, the tall and thin old man and the others told them not to leave the room at night. After pointing out the location of the dry toilet, they said goodbye and left, letting Jin An and the others rest early.

"Why can't you go out at night? Is there any danger in the Laughing Corpse Village at night?" Ayimaimaiti, one of the people from the Western Regions, looked around nervously and asked.

The tall and thin old man smiled with deep wrinkles on his face. He held up a torch and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, everyone. It's not that you can't go out at night. What I mean is that you try not to go out at night because the Laughing Corpse Village is very big. Everyone accidentally gets lost or strays into those morgues at night and gets scared.”

"There are no dangerous places in Laughing Corpse Manor, so don't be too nervous."

"So that's it. It scared us just now." Ayimaimaiti breathed a sigh of relief.

After the old men left, everyone said a few polite words to each other and then went back to their respective rooms to rest.

There are few resources in the desert and there are no candles. There are only a few wooden braziers in the room to provide simple lighting. Although the room has been cleaned, people can still smell a strange smell when they walk in. It seems that the place has been vacant for many years. , thick dust can still be seen in some corners that are difficult to clean.

to be honest.

There are too many doubts about this Laughing Corpse Village.

Jin An was not at ease about handing over the sheep and camels to the tall and thin old man and taking them to the camel pen, so Jin An was always with them and tied them outside the room door.

I don’t know if it was because of Mr. Yiyun’s nonchalant glare on the street that frightened old Sadiq and young Sahab. The two people who always talked the most became quiet. Even Jin An was not used to this. To the uncle and nephew's sudden silence.

inside the room.

Qi Bo cautiously came to the door, looked at the thick night outside the house, and saw that there was nothing unusual, then he recognized Jin An.

"Master Jin'an, I didn't expect that after half a year apart in Chang County, we could meet again in the desert of the Western Regions thousands of miles away. Even the storytellers in the teahouse dare not talk about such a fate that spans thousands of mountains and rivers. Sure enough, our fate with Mr. Jin An is not over yet." As a servant, Qi Bo naturally poured a cup of tea for Mr. Yiyun and Jin An.

However, the tea was not provided in the room he was using. The Laughing Corpse Village was extremely sinister, especially the terrifying 2,612 corpses stored there. They didn't even touch the camel meat and wine, and they didn't even touch the camel meat and wine. Why would you let down your guard and use the tea provided in the room at this time?

Mr. Yiyun and Qi Bo also had their own camels, and Qi Bo took the tea, water, and porcelain tea sets from the camels.

While making tea, Qi Bo looked at Jin An curiously: "Master Jin An, where have you been for the past six months, what have you experienced, how did you become a Taoist priest, and why did you go into the depths of the desert this time? Could it be that Mr. Jin An Is it also to find the legendary Kingdom of the Immortal God?”

"Also, how come this time we only see the goat left behind by Taoist Wu Zang who was raised by Mr. Jin An to become stronger and stronger, but not the Taoist Master Chen who has a deep friendship with Mr. Jin An?"

While he was asking, he quietly glanced at his young master sitting at the table. He was asking these questions for his young master.

Of course he knew that his young master was thin-skinned and was too embarrassed to ask, otherwise he wouldn't have left without saying goodbye because he couldn't bear to lose face when he was in Chang County.

A girl.

reserved.

Thin-skinned.

Very normal.

As a servant, of course, you should worry about your master first and take the initiative to solve your master's worries.

This sharpness of vision is the most basic professional quality of a servant.

"Thank you, Uncle Qi. There are a lot of doubts about Xiaoshi Manor. It was inconvenient to talk to each other outside just now. I hope Master Yiyun and Uncle Qi will forgive me. What happened in Chang County half a year ago, today I will have tea instead of wine. I want to say thank you to you two." Jin An held the teacup in both hands and said with a warm smile.

Qi Bo made himself a cup of tea, raised his glass and said in reply: "Young Master Jin An is too polite. Young Master Jin An has already thanked our Young Master once outside just now. Young Master Jin An does not need to be so polite."

"This time I thank you in person, which is different from the previous time." Jin An shook his head slightly.

"Good." Mr. Yiyun also raised his teacup to greet Jin'an.

Well.

Jin An wondered in his mind whether Master Yiyun had forgiven him or was he still angry with him?

The more you speculate, the more confused you become.

This reminded him of an allusion to an emperor who was angry to death.

The emperor of a certain dynasty said: I want to attack a certain country. What do you think of your love?

Prime Minister: Yes.

The emperor thought for a long time and got seriously ill. Before he died, he felt that the prime minister's answer should be yes. He went to ask the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister replied: Yes.

In the end the emperor was furious to death.

"Uncle Qi is right. I went into the desert this time to find the Kingdom of the Immortal God. As for the old Taoist priest..." When he mentioned the old Taoist priest, Jin An suddenly fell silent.

Both Master Yiyun and Qi Bo looked at Jin An, who was suddenly silent. Qi Bo asked worriedly: "But what happened to Taoist Chen?"

Therefore, Jin An briefly told what happened after he left Chang County and the reasons why he left Yangguan and entered the Western Regions to search for the Kingdom of the Immortal God.

Even if it was just a rough outline, it took almost half an hour to explain the whole story clearly.

When he heard that Jin An not only successfully found the Wu Zang Taoist Temple after leaving Chang County, but also became the master of the Wu Zang Taoist Temple, Qi Bo was dumbfounded. He was indeed the Mr. Jin An he knew.

No matter where Mr. Jin An goes, he will never be ordinary.

When Mr. Jin'an, as an ordinary person, could be the only living person to walk out of the ghost land of Chang County, leaving Chang County would not be as fierce as a dragon entering the sea or a hidden dragon ascending to the sky.

When I heard that Jin'an had solved a series of strange cases in Wuzhou Fucheng, there were many strange encounters along the way, including the case of the Dragon King coming ashore, the birth of the Corpse Executioner, the opening of the tomb of the dojo in the Cave Heaven Paradise, and the re-sealing of the mountain god. When they were saving the people of the city again, Master Yiyun and Uncle Qi looked at Jin An obviously differently, and Uncle Qi exclaimed again and again.

When Jin An talked about how he had cut a sword to save him and his whereabouts were unknown, and the old Taoist priest also disappeared without a trace, both of them sighed and looked regretful.

Although Jin An only told a rough story, the two of them could still hear the various thrills and dangers experienced by Jin An, the old Taoist priest, and Xi Jian.

"I didn't expect that so many things would happen to Mr. Jin'an after not seeing each other for half a year... He should be called Taoist Master Jin'an now." Qi Bo marveled again and again.

"After listening to Taoist Master Jin'an praising the good disciple of Sharp Sword so many times, even the old slave I can't help but want to meet this Young Master of Sharp Sword. It just so happens that my young master is also going to find the Kingdom of the Immortal God this time. Jin If Taoist An and my young master go to the Kingdom of the Immortal God together this time, we will definitely find the sword-cutting young master."

"Master Yiyun, Qi Bo, why did you come to the Western Desert this time to look for the Kingdom of the Immortal God? Are you also here to look for the legendary elixir of immortality?" Jin An looked at the two of them in surprise.

My young master wants to clear out your enemies for you, Taoist Priest Jin'an, and kill Monk Pu Zhi's ancestor Nine-faced Buddha on your behalf, lest the Nine-faced Buddha come out to avenge his disciples... Qi Bo muttered in his heart.

Qi Bo secretly glanced at his young master, and he could only dare to mutter something in his heart, but he would definitely not have the courage to say it out.

"Actually, we are here for the Nine-Faced Buddha."

Qi Bo: "Taoist Master Jin'an, do you still remember the monk Pu Zhi in Chang County? That monk Pu Zhi is the disciple and grandson of the Nine-faced Buddha. We learned that the last news about the Nine-faced Buddha was related to the Kingdom of the Immortal God, so we came to the desert this time I just want to completely eradicate it.”

Jin An's eyes turned cold: "Nine-faced Buddha!"

"Taoist Master Jin'an also knows about the Nine-faced Buddha?" This time it was Mr. Yiyun who spoke.

So, Jin An briefly told the story about Bailong Temple being infiltrated by the forces of the Nine-Faced Buddha. Young Master Yiyun frowned slightly: "I didn't expect that the minions of the Nine-Faced Buddha have penetrated so deeply into the Kangding Kingdom."

Dong Dong Dong, Jin An tapped the table with his fingers, and said with a stern face: "It seems that in this search for the Kingdom of the Immortal God, in addition to looking for my disciple Chi Jian and the Water Goddess, there is also another problem of looking for the Nine-faced Buddha. Master Shanneng takes revenge."

Next, Jin An also curiously asked about Master Yiyun and Qi Bo's experiences in the past six months.

In fact, the experience of the two of them for more than half a year was not as ups and downs as that of Jin'an, and they experienced so many thrilling events. After the two left Chang County, they did not stay in Wuzhou Prefecture for long. Young Master Yiyun continued her travels. Tianxia, ​​headed to Xizhou Mansion, out of Yangguan, and spent the next six months searching for clues to the Guchi Kingdom and the Immortal Kingdom in the vast desert.

Jin An discovered that Master Yiyun and Qi Bo also passed by Yueqiang Kingdom. Not only did they pass by Yueqiang Kingdom, they actually stayed in the same inn with him.

All three of them looked shocked.

Are there really so many coincidences and fates in this world?

Only then did Jin An recall that the owner of the inn had mentioned a pair of masters and servants several times. He didn't think much about it at the time, but now he realized that the pair of masters and servants were Mr. Yiyun and Qi Bo.

Young Master Yiyun and Qi Bo entered the Holy Mountain of Guchi Kingdom a few days earlier than Jin An, but they did not have as good luck as Jin An. An ancient ship successfully took him to the exit. After walking around for a few days, he came out, which meant he arrived at the Laughing Corpse Manor half a day earlier than Jin An.

"Taoist Master Jin'an is still very capable. He was able to find clues to the Holy Mountain of Guchi Country with a few vague clues from the people. We finally found the Holy Mountain of Guchi Country after getting some information." Qi Bo couldn't help raising a big hat. Thumbs up, praising Jin An again.

"My young master said that someone once found the Holy Mountain of Guchi Country. The person behind the deliberate release of the news this time should be the person who once found the Guchi Country. That person deliberately released the news to lure more people to find Guchi Country. Chi Guo, lure more people to help the person behind the scenes find the Kingdom of the Immortal God."

Jin An pondered: "I roughly know what happened. When the snowy mountains turned into the sea, didn't you encounter a dead man named Amul?"

Seeing the two men shaking their heads, Jin An told what happened between Amul and the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom.

When he heard that there were still so many secrets hidden back then, especially that the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom might still be alive and had even infiltrated the Holy Mountain of the Guchi Kingdom, Mr. Yiyun looked at Jin An with a pair of clear eyes.

"What, is there something dirty on my face?" Jin An subconsciously touched his face.

"Does Taoist Priest Jin An have any opinion about Laughing Corpse Village?" Young Master Yiyun ignored Jin An's soliloquy and glanced at the room in front of him that always had a strange smell that lingered. His tone was relaxed and flat, but he looked at it. Don't come out nervous or worried.

Jin An pondered: "I found at least three suspicious points in this Laughing Corpse Manor."

"The first doubtful point is that even if the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom left many dead and wounded soldiers in Laughing Corpse Manor, after so many years, he still couldn't wait for the return of the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom, so many wounded soldiers never thought of returning the same way. , return to the Holy Mountain of Guchi Kingdom and go out? But according to their reason, it is too dangerous to escape from the Holy Mountain of Guchi Kingdom... This is the first doubt."

"Second doubt, just take what they say is true. The Holy Mountain of Guchi Kingdom is too dangerous and there are many dead people buried there. But back then so many people couldn't even get out of the Holy Mountain of Guchi Kingdom. Why should the descendants of injured soldiers be killed?" , but can find the ruins of the Wu'er clan? Is it really just good luck and not abandoned by the desert gods? Anyway, I don't believe these nonsense."

"Their words themselves are a bit contradictory. The army led by the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom was on the way to find the Wuer clan. They encountered a disaster, suffered heavy casualties, and suffered a great loss of morale. That's why they left behind a Laughing Corpse Village. Those injured How can Bing's descendants find the Wu'er family safe and sound? This is the second doubt."

"Doubt 3, what is the most important thing in the desert? It is the water source. Without water, people cannot survive even three days in the desert. So the question is, how did so many wounded soldiers survive in the desert? Even if it is black rain The king left some clean water, but this water is limited and won’t last long. What happens after they finish drinking the water? Where will their subsequent water come from?”

"If they were lucky enough to find the Wu'er clan ruins and found the water source from the so-called God's Ear sinkhole, I don't believe they could find the Wu'er clan ruins in such a short period of time, but they couldn't follow the example of the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom. The main force encountered... water is the key point, this is the third doubt."

"I think there is a big problem with this Laughing Corpse Manor. Back then, the leader of the Black Rain Kingdom built such a Laughing Corpse Manor here. It must not only be used to bury corpses and boost morale. There must be something else in this Laughing Corpse Manor. This is the reason why the leader of Black Rain Country did not hesitate to spend a lot of effort to build it."

"The only reason I can think of is related to water! There must be another water source hidden in the Laughing Corpse Village. It was an important supply point for the army that entered the desert, so some people were specially left to guard it. ! Only in this way can we explain why those wounded soldiers not only survived safely, but also continued to reproduce for so many generations!"

After listening to Jin An's analysis, Mr. Yiyun said with great interest: "I heard from Taoist Jin An that you want to explore the truth behind the Laughing Corpse Village at night?"

Jin An glanced at the eerie Laughing Corpse Manor outside the door, with a cold light flashing in his eyes: "I plan to use the Yin God to leave my body and use the Yin God to see the truth about this world that is being deceived."

Young Master Yiyun, who had jade-like skin, red lips and white teeth, suddenly smiled. With this smile, the smell of red moon rouge powder on her body seemed to become more fragrant, getting into Jin An's nose, tickling her.

Young Master Yiyun: "Good."

Jin An: "?"

Young Master Yiyun plans to leave his body with Jin An to explore the truth behind the Laughing Corpse Manor at night.
