It's Liao Zhai, not Cthulhu

"Not really, I slept soundly last night." Qin Yuelou recalled it carefully, and found that nothing strange happened, "But I think we should visit Menglongtan, brother Zeng screamed so loudly, Brother Meng didn't say anything... don't tell me something happened."

After saying this, Qin Yuelou went outside Meng Longtan's room with the two scholars.

Knocked on the door, but no one answered, so Qin Yuelou used the lockpicking technique with ease.

Then he pushed the door open, only to find that the room was empty.

"It's strange. The door was locked, but there was no one in the room. Could it be that it was turned out through the window?" Qin Yuelou asked strangely.

Then Qin Yuelou opened it with Chonglongyu, and carefully sniffed the smell in the room.

A faintly scented fragrance tickled his nose, making Qin Yuelou sneezed.

This fragrance seems to be the smell of rouge powder on a woman's body, but it is closer to body fragrance.

Don't Meng Longtan be fascinated by some female goblin, right?

"You stay in the guest room first, tiger, you protect them, I will come back when I go." Qin Yuelou begged the tiger.

The tiger nodded, so Qin Yuelou chased after the scent like a police dog.

Not long after, he followed the scent, out of the gate of Hailun Temple, all the way to a certain cave.

The fingertips ignited Nine Lights Yanghuo Sword Intent, illuminating the dark cave.

The smell in this cave is mixed, there is the smell of bats or animal feces, it can be called Laoba Cafeteria, and there is also the smell of beasts, but the smell of rocks is very weak, Qin Yuelou is peeling cocoons among these many smells , still able to find where the fragrance is.

This fragrance is like a silk thread, pulling Qin Yuelou to a certain place.

After going deep all the way, they reached the inside of the cave. The inside of the cave was considered spacious, with a big hole on the top of the head. The sky was bright and fell into the cave, illuminating the scene in the cave.

In front of him was a dilapidated temple built in a cave. Qin Yuelou walked to the entrance of the temple, pushed the door open and entered.

It was also a mess, and with his entry, many snakes, insects, rats and ants lurking in the dark fled away.

Although this is a temple, there are no Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in this temple, and there is no table for offerings. Instead, there is a wall standing upright.

It’s not all about the wall, it’s a towering tower in the middle of the temple, somewhat similar to a screen wall, but the screen wall here is not square, but curved in a semi-elliptical shape.

And there are murals on the screen wall, the paintings are exquisite, and the characters are lifelike.

The mural depicts a flower-scattering celestial girl, with a drooping hair inside, smiling while holding a flower, her cherry lips are about to move, and her eyes are flowing. There is not only one such flower-scattering celestial being, as if flying in the sky, and even depicts the scene of the fairy palace shrouded in clouds and mists. Flowers and grass, fairy mist fluttering.

In addition to Sanhua Tiannv, there are also gods from all walks of life, and at the same time there are other gods who seem to be civilians, and there are also emperors and others.

The murals in Buddhist temples don't depict Buddha, but various gods holding banquets?

It's really a bit weird.

Qin Yuelou took out the little yellow book. The main goal of his trip was also a screen wall, and it was the same as the screen wall in front of him, except that there was nothing on the screen wall in the little yellow book.

Just when Qin Yuelou was about to destroy the painted wall with a sword, he spotted Meng Longtan who was lingering in the banquet with sharp eyes.

This portrait of Meng Longtan is really lifelike and lifelike, even after staring at it for a long time, you can still find every move of Meng Longtan in the mural, eating a birthday peach and drinking a cup of fairy wine, flirting with Scattering Flower Goddess, and talking and laughing happily with other fairy officials.

It's like an animation, but after staring at it for a long time, I also found that the whole mural came alive.

Just as Qin Yuelou was thinking about how to pull Meng Longtan out, he unconsciously fell for the trick.

Qin Yuelou's figure disappeared from the screen wall, and the murals on the screen wall began to be gradually covered.

The painting covering the painted wall is a raging sea, with three dragons in the sea, one is black, one is white, and the other is colorless, just like simple lines.

Beside the raging sea is a cliff, on the cliff grows an old pine tree with a crooked neck, and under the old pine tree is a huge colorful tiger like a rockery.

There is a rope hanging from the trunk of the crooked-neck tree, and at the trunk where the rope is tied, there is also a mouse crawling towards the tied rope,

And under the vertically falling rope, there is a golden-haired monkey hanging. This monkey also has six ears.

Then the still image moved.

The three dragons under the rope of the six-eared golden monkey stirred up the raging sea, trying to jump up and bite the monkey on the rope, but no matter what, they couldn't touch the monkey, not even the monkey's tail .

But the big gray-haired mouse on the old crooked-necked pine tree was tirelessly nibbling on the knotted rope,

The monkey didn't move, just closed its eyes, and its expression was cold and steady.

When he opened his eyes, he let go of his hand.

The monkey fell down, and the three flood dragons waiting for the monkey in the sea also jumped up at the same time, each in mid-air.

The black dragon bit the monkey's left leg, the white dragon entangled the monkey's body, and the colorless dragon wanted to swallow the monkey together with the black and white dragon.

It's just that the monkey didn't realize it, and it propped up the colorless dragon with only lines, and put its hands against the dragon's mouth, and its right leg supported the lower jaw. With a little force, the flesh at the dragon's mouth was torn apart. Come, and this rift has never been spared from beginning to end.

The head of the colorless dragon that was torn into two pieces fell into the sea, but it didn't bleed, it just stirred up waves, and finally sank into the sea.

And the figure of the six-eared golden monkey became much bigger, and then the black and white twin dragons fell into the waves together with the six-eared golden monkey.

Then the six-eared golden monkey grabbed the two parts of the white dragon wrapped around his body with both hands, opened its mouth, and bit down on the white dragon, the bright red dragon's blood spurted from the wound, and then flowed out.

Chewing the dragon meat carelessly, it swallowed its belly. Although the black dragon bit its leg, the six-eared golden monkey didn't care at all. With the bone, I ate it bite by bite.

Eating more and more, the monkey's body is huge, and the black dragon's mouth is stretched to the limit.

The increasingly gigantic monkey body grabbed the tail of the black dragon, stretched it upwards desperately, stepped on the head of the black dragon, which was stretched to the point where it could not be spit out, and pulled the dragon body with its hands, continuously upwards Stretch.

Not long after, the black dragon's body was stretched off, and the black blood stained the seawater.

The golden-haired six-eared giant monkey swam upwards from the sea,

When the golden monkey came out of the water, it firmly stuck to the rock protruding from the cliff, and climbed up step by step.

The King Kong-like golden-haired giant ape jumped up from the cliff with both feet together, and the huge golden-haired giant palm also held down the huge colorful tiger.

At the same time, he pulled the mouse off the crooked-necked tree, rubbed his fingers together, and made the little mouse into a meat paste.

The tiger wanted to resist at first, but the monkey's paw kept exerting more strength.

Until the tiger became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.

The golden-haired giant ape that subdued the colorful tiger, killed the three-headed dragon, and crushed the gray-haired mouse to death gradually recovered its figure and turned back into a human form.

Qin Yuelou, who had disappeared from the screen wall, also returned to the screen wall.

It's just that it feels extremely unpredictable. His strength may not have risen because of this, but his realm of thought, or the way of the sword that he has established, has improved beyond ordinary.

Killing the three-headed dragon means cutting out the good corpse, the evil corpse, and the original corpse. It is regarded as cutting off the three corpses. It is a kind of refinement of one's own ideological realm and a refinement of one's own way. .

To subdue the colorful tiger is to gain perfect control over one's own body.

The meaning of crushing the gray-haired mouse to death is that there will be no complicated desires in the heart.

After Qin Yuelou finished these things, Yingbi couldn't help keeping him, because in the process, Qin Yuelou understood what kind of thing this Yingbi was.

The shadow wall is originally a spiritual treasure of heaven and earth, and its entity is a picture, which is specially designed to help practitioners cultivate their state of mind. Therefore, various illusions will be transformed in this wall. Helpful.

But as more and more people entered the picture, the picture was also polluted by the inner desires of the entrants, and the treasure itself had spirituality. After a long time, this spirituality was turned into a demon by desire, and then it became Trapped many people in the painting, and only released those people after the fun was over, but it also wasted a lot of time.

So someone destroyed the painting, but the spirituality and demonic nature of the treasure escaped and attached to a shadow wall.

The abbot of Hailun Temple got this screen wall when he went down the mountain to cast down demons in the early years. After knowing the cause and effect, he thought it was the carrier of heaven and earth spiritual treasures, and couldn't bear to destroy it, so he used the broken temple to town the screen wall in the cave, hoping No one will get into it by mistake, so that Yingbi can get rid of the demon nature by himself, but who knows, Meng Longtan strayed into this Yingbi before he got rid of the demon nature. The illusory Scattering Flower Goddess in the mural was recruited back again.

Until Qin Yuelou entered the screen wall.

In fact, it is not the fault of the screen wall, the screen wall is a spiritual treasure, but because of the reason of desire, it strengthens the inner illusion, so it makes it more difficult for those monks whose state of mind is not at home.

To put it simply, the difficulty has been increased after the screen wall's monster nature has increased greatly.

It's just that after Qin Yuelou cleared the highest difficulty level, the demonic nature of the screen wall became compatible with spirituality.

So not long after, Meng Longtan, who had dispelled the illusion, came out from the screen wall. After leaving the dreamlike land for a while, Meng Longtan had a refined and calm expression on his face, as if looking away from the world of mortals.

Qin Yuelou can probably guess that the difficulty of this screen wall depends on the person.

So this little yellow book also showed that Qin Yuelou met the requirements, and Qin Yuelou sealed the 72 spells in it again with the sword intent of time.

"I really don't know what your little yellow book's definition of satisfaction is." Qin Yuelou didn't know much about it,

"Anyway, let's take you back first, Brother Meng."

Chapter One and Three

"Oh, so it's Brother Qin." Only then did Meng Longtan notice that he had separated from the shadow wall.

"How long have you been in this screen wall? I just saw that you are like a fish in water at the banquet of the Immortal Palace." Qin Yuelou teased Meng Longtan.

Meng Longtan was quite sober, knowing that everything in the painted wall was unreal, and after seeing Qin Yuelou, he knew that he should have returned to reality.

"Although I feel like a fish in water, I also found that people are still too small." Meng Longtan said as if he had realized everything, "I have been working hard to obtain fame for more than ten or twenty years, but after this incident, I discovered The lifespan of a human being is like that of a celestial being, and it is like a mayfly to a human being. We are nothing but a group of mayflies who live and die, and it would be great if we could live forever."

"Longevity is indeed desired by many people, but isn't longevity a form of punishment?" Qin Yuelou said.

"Why is longevity a punishment?" Meng Longtan asked Qin Yuelou in confusion.

"A hundred years from now, things will be different and people will not be the same. Whether it's your relatives or your enemies, they will all pass away in a limited life. What if you get longevity? If you get longevity because your mood doesn't match, then you can only live forever." Watching the people and things in the past all age, even if you form a new intimate relationship, you will still be unable to escape the passage of time." Qin Yuelou said.

Meng Longtan opened his mouth, but he still closed it, because this was indeed a punishment.

"Okay, it's time for us to leave. For the matter of the screen wall, let this screen wall stay here." Qin Yuelou looked at the screen wall.

It was this glance that made Qin Yuelou discover an unusual scene in the screen wall.

A picture emerged from the center of the screen wall. It was a burly man with his back facing Qinyuelou. The man was sitting on the mountain of corpses, with a sword stuck in his hand.

In front of the man with his back to Qinyue Tower, there are mountains of corpses, and the corpses that make up the mountains are mostly strange monsters and ghosts, and occasionally human limbs are mixed in between.

It is said to be a sword, but it is indeed a sword from the shape, but the paint on the sword seems to be peeled off, exposing the wooden blade under the sword.

That is to say, the man just used the wooden sword in his hand to create mountains of corpses in the phantom of the screen wall, and not far away was the endless sea of ​​blood.

The sky in the shadow wall seemed to be dyed red with blood, and the tone of the whole painting was a depressing and frightening dark red, which was full of murderous intent and killing intent.

Then, the man with his back to Qin Yuelou turned his head.

His rough face was full of stubble, his temples were gray, he looked about 50 to [-] years old, he was wearing coarse linen clothes, and after a casual glance at Qin Yuelou, the uncle with a wooden sword appeared in Qin Yuelou's door before.

Unconsciously, Qin Yuelou drew his sword and faced the wooden sword uncle.

There was no other reason, although the uncle locked the murderous intent into his burly body, but the involuntary killing intent made Qin Yuelou inevitably have the instinct to draw his sword and confront him.

His perception was better than Meng Longtan's. Meng Longtan was only suppressed by the suppressed aura and did not dare to make any moves, but Qin Yuelou could sense the murderous aura like a sea of ​​blood.

Angzang's uncle glanced at Qin Yuelou indifferently, and Qin Yuelou felt as if he was being watched by a sea of ​​blood.

"Who are you?" Uncle Angzang asked Qin Yuelou.

"I'm next...Peng Yuyan." Qin Yuelou held his sword and met the uncle's eyes.

"Well, I can't see it, but it's a good seed, but your sword is not sharp enough." The uncle looked at Qin Yuelou and commented briefly.

"Who are you?" Qin Yuelou also asked.

"It has nothing to do with you, let me ask you, what year and month is it now?" the uncle asked Qin Yuelou, and he came to Qin Yuelou in a blink of an eye.

Push Qin Yuelou's sword into the scabbard.

And Qin Yuelou didn't even notice it, but the uncle did it simply, even Meng Longtan saw the uncle pushing the sword into the sheath.

"Now is the 33rd year of Dajing Peiding."

"Oh, it seems that I didn't stay in that painting wall for a long time." The uncle nodded. Maybe you will kill me or I will kill you, after all, you are not even qualified to die by my hands."

The uncle glanced at Qin Yuelou, said earnestly, and then left with the wooden sword in his hand.

Qin Yuelou was stunned when he heard what the uncle said, but he was also thinking in his heart: "Is this person crazy?"

Although it was a small episode, Qin Yuelou could tell that this big man, Angzang, was also very strong, even stronger than himself who was standing upright now.

Not taking this matter to heart, Qin Yuelou took Meng Longtan back to Hailun Temple. After returning to the guest room, Qin Yuelou prepared to leave with the tiger.

After all, the goal of Little Yellow Book has been achieved, so there is no need to stay too long, but before leaving, Qin Yuelou is going to meet the abbot of Hailun Temple.

It is not clear whether the abbot of Hailun Temple is an eminent monk or a great virtue, but the abbot is obviously capable, after all, the screen wall was brought back by the abbot.

Just when Qin Yuelou was about to call the little novice to meet the abbot, the little novice came to inform Qin Yuelou in advance.

"Benefactor, our abbot said he wanted to see you and have a chat with you."

I have to say that the timing of the little novice's arrival was very coincidental, and then Qin Yuelou and the little novice went to the meditation room where the abbot was.

The meditation room is also surrounded by sandalwood, and it is very concentrated and meditative. Just as Qin Yuelou was about to knock on the door, the door opened by itself. The old monk in the meditation room was wearing a gray monk robe that was washed white and patched a lot .

The earlobes are huge, drooping on the shoulders, the beard hangs down on the monk's robe, and even the eyebrows are the same, but the top of the head is bald, and there are still nine ring scars.

"Benefactor Qin, right?" The old monk smiled slightly, "My name is Mengyi, the golden leaf you gave that day was full of light of merit and virtue. When I saw you in person today, the golden light of merit and virtue is really dazzling. It seems that the monsters you killed will end up harming all living beings or causing disasters in the future."

"This Meng...uh, Master Mengyi, I'm curious, how did you find out?" Qin Yuelou became a little interested and asked Master Mengyi.
