Master's Escape Plan

Chapter 5 Sect Mission

Tanghe Town is not big, but it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with gurgling streams in front of the town, the scenery is beautiful and moving, and because it is located on the main road of cultivating sects, it is very lively and has a thriving population. It seems that it has the tendency to develop into a small town in recent years.

At the city gate, as soon as the group entered the city, a waiter in the shop keenly noticed that they were either rich or expensive, and immediately greeted them enthusiastically.

"Does the guest want to stay in the inn? Our inn is clean and tidy, and there is nothing to choose in the whole town!" The inn waiter smiled and said to the leading man. Yu Xuanang, with a white jade hairpin on his head and a gleaming golden robe, looks very imposing.

The man didn't answer him, but turned to a man in Tsing Yi behind him and said, "Master, should we stay in the hotel first or inquire about the news first?"

Only then did the waiter notice the man in the blue shirt. With the leader man's golden robe in front of him, the man in the blue shirt is not so eye-catching.But when the waiter in the shop saw him, he still couldn't help sighing that he was so handsome, gentle and reserved, he should be a junior from a rich family who came out to practice.

The man who can be the leader calls him Shizun, it seems that this young man is the one who is hiding in the team.

With an unchanged smile, the waiter said the same thing to Mr. Qingshan once again.

The young master pondered for a while, and said: "Let's find a place to live first."

"Okay! This way, please!" The waiter happily threw a handkerchief over his shoulders, leading the group of people.

This group of people were Qin Shu and others. He sent out a mission on a whim, just in time for a new mission, so he led a group of inner disciples down the mountain.

The cause of the mission was a notice of evil spirits hurting people in a small town at the foot of the mountain. There is an Anshui town more than [-] miles away from Zhengyi. Most of the townspeople live by hunting. The news of the haunting and the death of three people caused panic among the townspeople.

Qin Shu's mission is to bring his disciples to Darkwater Town before the day after tomorrow, and suppress the evil spirits within one month.This is actually a very simple case. Ghosts, especially evil ghosts, do not pose much threat to well-behaved practitioners and are easy to suppress. Therefore, they usually appear in places where civilians live together.It's not enough to scare a cultivator, but it's more than enough to scare a few ordinary people.

Bai Shuang is full of confidence in this, he is good at exorcising ghosts, and one of their royal family's secret spells is aimed at evil spirits, especially to prevent the insidious means of harming people in the deep palace.

Ordinary people living in a mortal dynasty would know such a rumor.In the previous dynasty, there was a queen with the posthumous title "Anhui", who was a young couple with the emperor. After the emperor ascended the throne, the number of concubines in the harem gradually increased, so she stopped going to the queen's place often.The empress is virtuous and generous, she never complained, and even personally ordered people to protect her pregnant concubine, which was praised by all the people in the world.

But the emperor did not know why, and gradually suffered from hysteria, and could always see white shadows, and then gradually turned into those shadows trying to kill him, talking madly all day long.The queen was very sad, and invited countless famous doctors to come to diagnose, but none of them diagnosed the cause, and then nothing happened.

The emperor died young, and before he died, he remembered the queen's virtue, and the imperial edict passed on the crown prince's throne.Surprisingly, the prince gradually suffered from hysteria shortly after he ascended the throne, so Empress Anhui, who was already the empress dowager, listened to the government behind the curtain every day.The concubines in the harem were unhappy because of the early death of the emperor, and they soon left one by one.

When the Empress Dowager passed away, the eldest son of the crown prince had been on the throne for more than ten years, and the world was in great mourning.The queen's reputation has been passed down until after the establishment of the new dynasty, when a heavy rain washed away the imperial tomb, and it was only when several cultivators passed by that they revealed the truth.

It turned out that a distant cousin of the queen was a cultivator, and the imperial concubine was the most favored in the harem. The queen tried her best to keep her seat, and finally begged on the head of this distant cousin. The distant cousin gave her a vicious method - raising ghosts He sent someone to collect the extremely Yin Qi from the imperial mausoleum every day, and injected it into the emperor's body at noon on the day he calculated. Ordinary ghosts could not get close to the body of the emperor, only ghosts from the imperial mausoleum could.

So the emperor was tortured and went crazy day by day, and finally died young.The prince is an extra victim, the queen has tasted the sweetness of power, she is not willing to be a woman in the harem anymore, she wants the courtiers to respect her, and the world praises her.In a sense, she did, if not for the rainstorm.

The method given by that cousin is different from the common folk method of raising ghosts, so the famous doctors can't see the problem.In order to remember the lessons learned from the past, the founding emperor not only invited practitioners to create countermeasures, but also ordered the royal family's children and queens to study in Xianzong for three years.

Baqi also told Qin Shu about this rumor. It absorbed the knowledge of Zangshuge and found other theories. Some people said that the queen's mother clan intervened in politics and forced the queen to frame the emperor in this way; some said that the emperor did it himself. In exchange for this end.There were different opinions, Qin Shu only listened to it as a story.

After descending the mountain, the ban on Yujian’s flying was lifted. This place is one day’s journey away from Anshui Town. Qin Shu and his disciples walked for half a day and decided to make some repairs in this Tanghe Town. Hurry up.Tanghe Town is the nearest town to Anshui Town, and there are a lot of people coming and going in Tanghe Town, and news circulates quickly, so you should be able to find out a lot of news.

In the evening, the disciples sent to inquire about the news came back and told Qin Shu many things.

Darkwater Town is indeed haunted. Some businessmen ran into it when they passed by the town, and they were quite frightened.According to him, it was noon when they passed through Anshui Town that day. Some of the guys in their caravan were tired from walking and wanted to go to the inn to ask for a bowl of tea. Yes, the hawkers are not human! Their eyes are blue, they just stare at you and do nothing. I was walking in the middle, and the two guys also said that they would not eat tea and would go out of town Clinker, when our caravan arrived at the gate, the gate was gone!"

When he said this, his eyes widened and he gestured with his hands. The more he said, the more frightened he became: "Mr. Fang is still reliable. Mr. Fang told us not to panic. He encountered this situation once when he was in his hometown, so we can't force ourselves into it." , I want to find some rice and put it where the city gate used to be, stick three sticks of incense, respectfully kowtow three times, and then walk close to the city wall and circle the entire city. Just go out."

"I sent a few guys to a house on the street to get rice. Those people surrounded us and stopped us from leaving. We finally rushed them away, put the rice on the open space in front of the city wall, and kowtowed quickly. I left quickly. Thanks to God’s blessing, I only circled around once. When I came back, the rice was gone, and the original city wall also had a gate, so we hurried out.”

After repeating the news, the disciple frowned and said: "Elder Qin, this disciple thinks that the evil spirit should be a lost and dark ghost, and it will create some illusions to make people frightened, but it has no real power, and we don't need to mobilize the crowd."

"Bai Shuang, what do you think?" Qin Shu didn't comment.

When his name was called, Bai Shuang stood up and said to Qin Shu: "I think this evil ghost should not be underestimated. The illusion created by ordinary lost and dark lights is only a mere square inch. According to this merchant, the whole town is actually an illusion. , it might be too big."

Only then did Qin Shu nod his head. What Bai Shuang said was the same as what Baqi said. The ghosts in this town are quite strange. The elder and a group of disciples.

"My disciple also has a piece of news that the three people who died in Anshui Town all went to the Zhaocui Building in the town before they were alive." Another disciple said.

"What is Zhaocui Building?" Qin Shu asked curiously.

The disciple became hesitant, and replied in a low voice: "That's... that's the kind of place..."

Qin Shu coughed lightly and understood.

At this time, another disciple beside him also spoke: "Elder Qin, this disciple has also found out a piece of news. Dark Water Town has been established for a hundred years, and its feng shui blocks the wind and gathers the sun. It is not a place suitable for ghosts to live. There has never been a major haunting problem. But this haunting lasted for more than three months, and it may be man-made."

This news is quite interesting, Qin Shu nodded: "Whether it is man-made or ordinary ghosts, we will find out when we arrive tomorrow."

So everyone dispersed one after another, went back to the room to rest, and continued on their way with Yujian the next day.

When the sun was about to set, Qin Shu and his party finally arrived at Dark Water Town.
