Because of what he saw and heard the night before, when Mo Chen saw these city residents the next day, he no longer felt contemptuous in his heart. The appearance of eating people alive will make you feel sick.

Dongfangxin didn't notice Mo Chen's strangeness. He hired a carriage to pull up the boxes containing spiritual sand, walked along the road to the north gate of the city, passed a market, sold half of the goods, and saw the buyer still staring at him. For the remaining boxes, Dongfang said: "We will take the rest out of the city. A buyer has already placed an order in the mountains."

Seeing what Dongfangxin said, the buyer no longer coveted their goods. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be quite afraid of the people in the mountains.

At noon, Dongfangxin, Mo Chen and his party successfully left the city from the north gate. The carriage team was driving on the uneven dirt road, making the sound of wheels colliding.

Mo Chen sat in the carriage and was irritated by the bumps. He lifted the curtain and looked out, "Are we going directly into the mountain to find the king's tomb?"

After leaving the city, they drove for an hour, and they had already entered the mountainous area. The narrow road was lined with dense forests and shadowy mountains. Mo Chen looked at the undulating hills and carefully recalled which one was the resting place of Ning Yuan when he was Emperor Liang. , but can't remember for a while.But he thought, since it is the place where the ten thousand year snow lotus petals are located, it must be a place with extremely strong aura, so it should be easy to feel it.But the strange thing is that the further they went into the mountainous area, the thicker the ghost fog pervading the sky and the earth, covering the sky and the sun, without the clarity of night at all.

So the ten thousand year snow lotus petals are really in this kind of place?If Mo Chen hadn't detected the aura in those city residents before, and knew that there must be something from the fairy family nearby, he would have suspected that he had been deceived by Dongfang Xin.

Seeing that Mo Chen looked impatient and not in a hurry, Dongfangxin just smiled and comforted him: "Fellow Daoist Bai bear with me a little longer, I probably know the location of the king's tomb, as long as we enter that area and do a little investigation, I believe we can do it." Find the tomb of the ancient king. However, you may pass through a few villages during this period, but fortunately, with these spiritual sands as a cover, there shouldn't be any problems."

Mo Chen thought of the expression on the buyer's face when Dongfang Xin mentioned "people from the mountains" just now, and asked, "Fellow Daoist Dongfang, have you noticed that the people in the city seem to be very afraid of the people in the mountains? Could it be that there is something wrong with the villagers in this mountain?"

Dongfangxin took a look at Mo Chen, and couldn't help laughing: "You Daoist Bai observes people's subtleties, and you can see it, you have good eyesight."

As soon as Mo Chen heard this, he knew that Dongfangxin knew the truth, but when he saw that he didn't speak anymore, he just closed his eyes leisurely and meditated, and secretly scolded this person for being slippery, so he had to lose his smile and said in judo voice: "It seems Fellow Daoist Dongfang has already made up his mind, please give us your advice."

Dongfang Xin likes to see Mo Chen's low-browed, pleasing-eyed and soft-spoken manner. His eyes wandered around Mo Chen wantonly, and he said unhurriedly: "The people in the city are naturally afraid of the people in the mountains, because these people The demonic energy of the villagers in the mountains is heavier than them. Both their physical strength and ability are far superior to those in the city. Their human nature is less than that of demonic nature. They are irritable and irritable, and their actions are extremely cruel and bloody. Naturally, no one dares to offend them. .”

More devilish?

Mo Chen always felt that something was wrong.Since the snow lotus petals have been in the mountains for ten thousand years, people living in the mountains should be contaminated with more immortal energy. How could they be more demonic?Could it be that the source of the devilish energy is also in this mountain?And the power of demon nature is increasing day by day, so that even the ten thousand year snow lotus can't be suppressed?

Sure enough, as Dongfang Xin said, they went deeper and deeper into the mountainous area and began to pass some scattered farms.In fact, in Mo Chen's eyes, these farms are no longer called farms. Although these farms are located on the plains between mountains, and there are thousands of miles of fields in the distance, there is no vitality in the land that should be lush and green, and large areas of dry soil are exposed. , Cracked due to lack of water, and the barking of chickens and dogs could not be heard in the farm, revealing a deathly silence and gloomy.

The way was blocked by three or four sturdy villagers, Mo Chen didn't get out of the car, but Dongfang Xin went over to negotiate with those people with a calm face.Mo Chen lifted the curtain of the car and looked out through the gap, and saw the appearance of those villagers, all of them were covered with black air, their expressions were dull, and obviously, they were more fierce than those in the city.

Dongfang Xin said a few words to those people with a smiling face, and gestured to the boxes containing spiritual sand in the carriage. Lift the box down.The villagers gave Dongfangxin something, and happily carried the box back to the village.

Sitting in the carriage and watching this scene, Mo Chen gloated at his misfortune, and felt that Dongfangxin, a powerful person, would be reduced to trying to curry favor with the peasants in the countryside, and it was really difficult for him.However, he also saw the things that the villagers gave to Dongfangxin after they took the spiritual sand.

When we were in the city earlier, Dongfangxin also accepted the buyer's things, right?But I don't know whether Dongfangxin was intentional or unintentional, and it has never been mentioned.

Ah Jiu rode beside Mo Chen's carriage, her body wrapped tightly.Seeing that no one noticed them at this time, Mo Chen opened the window, waved at Ah Jiu, and motioned him to come closer to him.Ah Jiu was still sitting on the horse, but bent down and put his ear to Mo Chen's lips, waiting for orders.

"Ah Jiu, you said earlier that you thought this place was very familiar, did you remember anything now?"

Seeing Ah Jiu shaking his head, Mo Chen couldn't help being disappointed, but he still didn't give up and asked: "Then where do you think the tomb of the king we are looking for should be?"

Originally thought that Ah Jiu would still shake his head, but this time he actually looked into the distance, and suddenly said, "Dongfang Xin led the way, that's right."

Mo Chen was very surprised, "Do you know where it is?"

Ah Jiu thought for a while and said, "I don't know, but I feel like there is some force pulling me to go that way."

Mo Chen frowned slightly, and wanted to ask again, but Dongfangxin had already returned, and sat in the carriage again, with a look of relief on his face.Even if Mo Chen had doubts, he couldn't tell Ah Jiu in front of Dongfang Xin. At this moment, he thought of another matter, and asked Dongfang Xin half-jokingly: "Dongfang Taoist friend, just now I saw that those people gave you something. Is their money here?"

Dongfangxin's movements froze, as if he didn't expect Mo Chen to ask such a question, and said with a nonchalant smile: "Yes."

Mo Chen said: "Then can you show me?"

Dongfangxin said in a perfunctory way: "It's just some copper and stinky things from the mortal world, why bother to dirty the hands of Fellow Daoist Bai, the next few villages will be traded again, maybe they will be used, so I will ask the person in charge to collect them. However, if Fellow Daoist Bai is really interested, I will ask them to bring it to Fellow Daoist."

Mo Chen was not polite: "Okay, then show it to me."

Dongfangxin's expression was a little ugly, and he probably didn't expect that Mo Chen would be so shameless. The meaning behind what he said was already obvious, that is, he didn't want to show Mo Chen those things now.But since Mo Chen opened his mouth, Dongfangxin had no choice but to order the person in charge of the goods to come and bring the money given by the villagers to Mo Chen.

Mo Chen took it over and took a look, and saw that the villagers' money was all ancient coins with green hairs. Mo Chen picked one of them, pulled the cushion and rubbed it on it, rubbing the coins out of their original colors, which could be seen faintly. A few archaic characters above.Mo Chen knew this kind of ancient money, it was probably the current currency in the dynasty after the fall of the Liang Kingdom.

"Since Fellow Daoist Bai has already seen it, let the people below keep these things."

The more Dongfang Xin was like this, the more suspicious Mo Chen became.He treasures these ancient coins so much, is there something tricky hidden in them?

"This thing looks interesting, can I keep two?"

Dongfang Xin frowned, as if he wanted to refuse, but found that Mo Chen was staring at him, so he changed his mind: "Since Fellow Daoist Bai likes it, let's keep one."

Only one left?Mo Chen felt that Dongfangxin was not a stingy person, but he was so stingy with ancient coins, so he couldn't help but be more careful, but on the surface he didn't want to challenge Dongfangxin's patience, so he picked an ancient coin and kept it, and returned the rest to the old man. The golden core monk in charge of goods.Mo Chen paid special attention to the expression of the Golden Core cultivator, and found that when he returned the ancient coin to him, he seemed to be relieved.

What is the mystery of these ancient coins?

Mo Chen was thoughtful, and suddenly regretted that he came here with Dongfangxin without knowing anything.

Then they passed through three more villages. Dongfangxin traded spiritual sand for passage. It didn't take long. They were already in the center of the mountainous area, and they went round and round, but they still didn't find the king's tomb.

It was completely dark, and everyone prepared to set up camp and let the horse rest.Without finding the tomb of the king, they could not use their spiritual power, so they had to pitch a tent and light a fire to keep warm.

Mo Chen found that Ah Jiu had been standing silently on the spot, staring fixedly into the distance.

"What did you see?" Mo Chen walked over and asked in a low voice.

"Over there." Ah Jiu pointed to somewhere in the night.

Every night, the ghost fog shrouding here seems to disappear miraculously, there is not even a half cloud in the sky, and the moonlight shines down without hindrance, it seems that it is for people to see the surrounding situation more clearly.In the moonlight, Mo Chen could vaguely discern the outline of the mountain shadow at the place indicated by Ah Jiu. He squinted his eyes for a long time, then suddenly widened his eyes, his eyes seemed unbelievable. He looked back and pointed to a high ground Said to Ah Jiu: "Go over there."

The two of them didn't care whether Dongfang Xin and the others thought their behavior was weird, they ran quickly to the hillside and high ground, stood still and looked into the distance again, this time Mo Chen finally saw clearly.

He was right.

The four sides are low, the eight winds are blowing, and the dragon and god are uncertain. The mountain that Ah Jiu pointed out to him actually shows the image of "Heaven Chong" among the ten fierce places, which is the most fierce place among the fierce places.
