The next day, Baili Jueming announced his decision to go to Xi'an Tuo. There are three main goals for this trip. The first goal is to listen to the voice of heaven, find a way to crack Xunwei's fate and cure Pei Zhenzhen's disease, and the second is to rescue Xie Cen close.Given that Xie Cenguan was suspected of being tricked, and there is a high possibility that there is no cure, Baili Jueming intends to try his best to capture his soul back, and we will talk about other things later.Even though that guy is crazy and neither male nor female, anyway, he is Xun Wei's biological father after all, Baili Jueming can't let him go.

On the other side, Pei Zhen nodded to Baili Jueming, "I will go with senior."

"Are you sure you want to follow me?" Baili Jueming raised his eyebrows.

It's not that he didn't think about it, Xi Nanda is dangerous, and Pei Zhen is not in good health and should not accompany him.However, after thinking about it carefully, he was even more worried about leaving Pei Zhen in the mansion.Pei Zhen and Xun Wei stayed together, a lonely man and a widow, who never looked up and looked down all day long, maybe when Baili Jueming came back in a disheveled state, they would both have children.Well, a daughter-in-law has become a son-in-law, and Xunwei is his favorite, how can he kill Pei Zhen and make Xunwei a widow?

The safest way is to bring someone with him, and he will watch in person, so that Pei Zhen won't go out to make love.

Pei Zhen knows everything, and knows Baili Cassia's small belly like the palm of his hand.He pursed his lips and smiled, "Senior, is it safe for me to stay in Xunzhou? If senior is assured, I will be fine."

"Follow if you like," Baili Jueming said immediately, "When you arrive in West Nanda, you stay on the periphery and come out after I finish my business."

In the days that followed, everyone made final preparations.Pei Zhen asked everyone to memorize the map, keep in mind the Masang Yuchong script, and read as many scriptures as they can.Even Baili Jueming couldn't escape, and Pei Zhen put him on the desk to copy the characters.The ghost attendant went out to steal ancient tombs, dug around the ancestral tombs of Jiangzuo Xianmen, and collected the icy cicada jade buried in the tombs to embalm the body.In those few days, Jiang Zuo exploded. I don't know who is so wicked to dig up other people's ancestral graves. The heads of several families are so angry that they can't catch a ghost.

Time was running out, they only had fifteen days to prepare.It took ten days to prepare all kinds of materials. They knew nothing about the ghosts and spells of Xi Nanda, so they could only use the ghost in Mu's ghost castle as a template for the enemy.They stole a cart full of alchemy arrows from Yuan's treasury to deal with the possible blood stains in Xi Nanda.Five days later, Yu Tingqiu left the customs and brought Mu Zhishen along with him.

It is not unusual for Yu Tingqiu to run away from home and now work under Pei Zhen.Why did Mu Zhishen follow?Baili Jueming looked at him suspiciously, and Mu Zhishen said flatly, "I have an appointment with Er Niangzi."

He didn't speak clearly, and he didn't intend to explain in detail.Even so, Baili Jueming knew that this son-in-law was basically useless.He was very worried, why couldn't this girl Xun Wei get married?

Xie Cenguan lost contact No. 15 days, can't delay any longer, everyone set off.

According to the map left by Baili Jueming before his death, to go to West Nanda, you must take the ghost country.After entering the Earth Fissure, head west all the way to the edge of the ghost country.After leaving the scope of the ghost country, passing through a lush jungle, sticking the speed running amulet, and walking for about four or five days, you will reach the border of West Nanda.

The map is very detailed, the only flaw is that it doesn't indicate how long it takes to travel inside the ghost country.The reason is not difficult to guess, the ghost mother's spells shattered the time inside the ghost country, Baili Jueming may not be able to estimate how long they stayed in the ghost country during his lifetime.Pei Zhen thought of a way to ask the ghost waiter who stayed behind in the ghost country to help them calculate the time.According to Ying Bushi, it took roughly fourteen days for Xie Cenguan to find the entrance to Xiandao after entering the Earth Fissure, and they should not be too far behind this time.

Baili Jue Ming was about to enter the Earth Crack, and Jiang Ruoxu greeted him personally at the gate of Tiandu Mountain.The front of the mountain gate was crowded with people's heads, all of them were pig heads from Jiang Zuo's gang.Baili Jueming's every move was watched by Jiang Zuo, and he couldn't hide the news that he was about to enter the Earth Fissure, and he didn't intend to hide it either.Jiangzuo Xianmen guessed that Baili Jueming would go to the ghost country to explore the secrets. On the one hand, he was afraid of Baili Jueming, and on the other hand, he wanted to get a share of Masang's secret treasure.

After all, greed defeated fear, and several immortal sects came forward shyly, trying to recruit their disciples to Baili Jueming's subordinates.Baili Jueming was not polite to them and asked them to stand facing the mountain steps.Everyone didn't understand, so they respectfully followed their words.Baili Jueming kicked their butts one by one, and on the long stone steps, the gang of lords yelled "Oops" repeatedly in horror, and rolled down like a ball.Baili Jueming built a pergola overlooking the stone steps, which is really a spectacular sight.

Jiang Ruoxu looked at it and shook his head, but there was nothing he could do about this perverse ancestor.Jiang Ruoxu personally handed over the knife to Baili Jueming after sending his disciples to hold the Nine Deaths.The old man's face was ashen, and Baili Jueming took the knife with a complicated expression on his face.

"Are you out of shape?" he asked.

Jiang Ruoxu smiled, and said: "The night before yesterday, I suddenly dreamed that the stars were in the sky, and the fire was on the mountain. The Chen is a dragon, and it is a snake. I am a dragon and a snake, and I know my end. Senior, my time is approaching." He looked down at Nine Deaths Er, "It's useless to keep this knife in the sect, so it's better to give it to seniors. Seniors, this trip is dangerous, so be careful."

Birth and death, life goes back and forth, irreversible.Baili Jueming sighed, stopped talking about this heavy topic, and asked instead: "How do you know that entering the ghost country this time is dangerous?"

"The places related to Marsang are not good places," Jiang Ruoxu sighed, "The younger generation dares to say that if the great master is practicing in Baochen Mountain safely, his life span will definitely be more than five hundred years old. The great master explores the ghost country, I wasted energy, and suffered from injuries in my later years. Seniors should know better than me what the Grand Master's health is like."

Baili Cassia was silent.He was right, the days before Wudu's death were difficult.Going to the place where the sun is not seen all the year round, Yin Qi accumulates in the cracks of the bones, and the bones ache late at night.He and Xun Weishou took turns serving in front of Wudu's bed, cleaning and changing clothes, and serving the decoction.The faces of other people turned pale when they died, and Wudu's face was dark when he died.Others say that the great master is the age of a fairy, and the end of five hundred years of life is full of joy and sorrow.Only Baili Jueming and Xun Wei knew that Wudu was not walking peacefully.

"There is one more thing to tell senior." Jiang Ruoxu said, "Senior, do you still remember Yu Lianhai, the master of the Yu family who came out of the ghost kingdom?"

Of course Baili Jueming remembered that just after returning to the human world and settling down in the Yu Mansion, he and Xun Wei met the ghost whose head had been removed. It is still unknown who buried Yu Lianhai's head under Mrs. Yu's bed.

"What's wrong?" Baili Jueming rubbed his chin, squinted his eyes and looked at him, "Could it be that you buried Yu Lianhai's head in the Yu family?"

"I'm ashamed," Jiang Ruoxu smiled, "Although I didn't do it, I do know who it is. This is not the point. What I want to say is another thing. Before the great master passed away, he told me to count One of the most important things. One of them is to burn all the ghosts that come out of the ghost country with the three flavors of real fire. Of course, this does not include you, senior. For several years, I have not known the intention of the great master to explain this matter When he told me back then, he asked me to swear three poisonous oaths in a row, ordering me to obey them, otherwise Jiangzuo Xianmen would be wiped out."

"So strict?" Baili Jue Ming Nahan said.

Jiang Ruoxu nodded, "It wasn't until Master Yu showed up at Yu's house that senior and Mr. Pei Xiaolang sealed Master Yu together, that I had a little idea of ​​what the Great Master intended."

When he said this, he paused and looked around without a trace.Just now Baili Jueming kicked several lords down the mountain steps, and now no one dares to approach this surly bastard.With Baili Cassia as the center, the ten-foot radius is empty.Only Pei Zhen was by the side, quietly trailing behind, like a white shadow.

Jiang Ruoxu seemed relieved, and finally said, "After Mr. Yu was sealed by Mr. Pei Xiaolang, Mrs. Yu locked him in the dungeon of Yu's family. I sent people to dig a tunnel for two days, leading directly to the bottom of the dungeon. Fortunately, Mrs. Yu was afraid at that time. The senior took revenge and deliberately strengthened the defenses inside and outside the house, and had no time to take care of Master Yu. The next night, we successfully switched him and transported him to the outskirts of Gusu through the tunnel. We put him in a peach wood coffin, and the coffin was covered with yellow talismans to ward off evil The eight disciples took up the burden at the same time, preparing to send the coffin and the body to Jiang's house for incineration."

Adding yellow talismans to the mahogany coffin is a routine way for immortals to trap corpses.Generally speaking, after this treatment, even ghosts who have practiced Taoism for 30 years cannot escape.In addition, Yu Lianhai was sealed by Pei Zhen's eight needles at that time, and he was completely incapacitated, so logically speaking, nothing would go wrong.

Jiang Ruoxu took a light breath and said, "However, the disciple who picked the coffin suddenly told me that someone in the coffin was asking for help."

Pei Zhen frowned slightly.

Jiang Ruoxu said: "It's not a big deal for ghosts to be able to speak, but I clearly remember that Yu Lianhai's body has already rotted, how can he ask for help?"

Baili Jueming didn't think it was strange, "Maybe he just made two 'cluck-clack' sounds, which is what all rotten ghosts call out. Your disciple is timid, and it's Daheitian, he misheard."

Jiang Ruoxu shook his head and continued.

There was no wind that night, and there were few cicadas singing. The moonlight leaked through the gaps in the densely packed leaves, and sprinkled like mercury on the blood-stained yellow talisman.The shoulder-carrying disciple was quite frightened when he heard someone talking in the coffin. Fortunately, Jiang Ruoxu was with the team. He was a celestial master after all, and he was able to calm down the situation, so everyone rushed on their way.

While he was running fast, a thin human voice came from inside the coffin.This time not only the bearer disciple heard the words, but even Jiang Ruoxu heard it.

Someone inside, whispering:

"Help."

The bearer disciple stopped in his tracks and looked at each other.The voice was so clear, the words were correct, and he said two words clearly, that is, "help", everyone could hear clearly.The tone was still quiet, as if he was not sure whether it was a good person or a bad person outside, so he deliberately lowered it.

The shoulder-bearer disciple became a little nervous, and said to Jiang Ruoxu: "Fairy Master, did a thief sneak into the coffin before we sealed it, and happened to seal him in too?"

What he said is not unreasonable. Some coffins have mechanisms under them, and some space will be reserved for gears and dark rods.If these gears are removed, a thin person can be laid down.Their coffins were not made by themselves, and Yu Lianhai's appearance was too sudden, so they had to buy an emergency coffin from the coffin shop.Maybe the boss saw them as family members and thought that there must be many people buried with them, so he lay down in the coffin before delivering it.

At that time, it was Zishi, which was the most cloudy time of the day.At this time, opening the coffin is a big taboo, and it is very likely to wake up ghosts.But it's not a problem to let the little thief lie in it, what if he suffocates to death in a while?The Jiang family is a decent family, even though they have to do some sneaky things, they can't treat human life like nothing.

Jiang Ruoxu had a headache, knocked on the coffin, and asked the people inside: "This little friend, can you persevere through time?"

"Help..." There was a cry in that voice.

A little thief with a wrong idea did not cause them any real harm, so he would not have to lose his life.Jiang Ruoxu ordered the coffin to be opened, and the accompanying disciples tore apart the spell and pried up the coffin board.Under the cold moonlight, they saw Yu Lianhai staring at them with his mouth wide open in the narrow coffin.

That scene was really scary, Yu Lianhai's description was already withered, as old as a dead branch.His eyes were also extremely cloudy, as if covered with a layer of hazy mist, and the originally dark eyeballs turned gray-white.All the teeth fell out, leaving only a black hole in the mouth.The disciples suppressed their fear and stepped forward, some raised their shoulders, some lifted their feet, ready to let him move a seat, revealing the mezzanine of the mechanism below.

After lifting it a couple of times, but he couldn't lift it, Yu Lianhai opened his big black mouth, which was very creepy.

Someone noticed that his mouth had opened beyond the range that normal people can open.For a man to open his mouth that wide, he would have to dislocate his jaw.Suddenly, as if realizing something, Jiang Ruoxu looked inside his mouth.It was pitch black inside, and a rotten smell came over the face.

Jiang Ruoxu endured his nausea and shouted, "Little friend, where are you?"

At this moment, Jiang Ruoxu saw the weirdest scene he had ever seen in his life.

Deep in Yu Lianhai's throat appeared a white face the size of an egg, with clear facial features, clear eyes and nose, and a little familiar, Jiang Ruoxu seemed to have seen this face before.

The man stared straight at Jiang Ruoxu, opened and closed his mouth, and called softly: "Help."

Jiang Ruoxu was startled, the face suddenly rushed up, and rushed straight to Jiang Ruoxu's face.Jiang Ruoxu reacted very quickly, and quickly stuffed a yellow talisman to ward off evil spirits into Yu Lianhai's mouth, and shouted, "Seal the coffin!"

Next, the inside and outside of the coffin were pasted with charms to ward off evil spirits, and no matter what sound was heard, the coffin would never be opened.Not even going back to the Jiang family mansion, Jiang Ruoxu decided to burn Yu Lianhai on the spot.Jiang's disciples cut all the grass on the ground, cleared an open space, and set fire to the coffin.

For the next three days, Jiang Ruoxu still couldn't help but feel palpitations when he recalled that pale face.He always felt that he had seen that face somewhere, as if it was someone he had seen before.He was old and his brain was useless, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't remember it anymore, so he had to give up.

Jiang Ruoxu said: "That's how things are, seniors for reference, maybe after entering the ghost country, you will encounter such ghosts."

Pei Zhen and Baili Jueming glanced at each other, this is already the third ghost they know that can keep repeating words.The first one is the ghost in the bronze mirror of Mu's bunker, which keeps repeating "Elder Jueming, it's midnight".The second one is Xie Cenguan. He has the longest talk and can even switch between male and female voices and talk to himself.The third one is the little person in Yu Lianhai's mouth, which seems to be aggressive.The most obvious feature of this kind of ghost is that it keeps talking while holding onto a word, a sentence or a paragraph, chattering like a parrot.After such an analysis, Baili Jueming felt that this kind of ghost was not very smart.

Jiang Ruoxu led them into the Eighteenth Prison, and Baili Jueming made a fuss in front of them. The Eighteenth Prison was basically turned into ruins. The disciples cleaned it up for several months before they cleared out a walkable path.Returning to the fissure again, looking down at the deep darkness, Baili Jueming felt unspeakable fear again.It has been a long time since I saw the ghost mother, and she seemed to have given up on following Baili Cassia after she came out of Mujiabao.

Feeling bewildered, for some reason, when thinking of the woman with black hair covering her face, his heart will be covered with a thin layer of sadness.He couldn't help thinking, what would she look like when she was alive?

The ghost servants drove the chariots and horses loaded with dry food and alchemy arrows to the hanging platform, and the ropes slowly sent the goods into the crack of the ground.Baili Jueming climbed onto the platform and extended his hand to Pei Zhen.A large group of people from Jiangzuo Xianmen watched from a distance, not daring to go forward.Pei Zhen was not in a hurry to get on the hanging platform, first he bowed to Jiang Ruoxu, and smiled politely: "Up to now, the Celestial Master still hasn't told us who buried Master Yu's head in the ground of the Yu family. Is it?"

Jiang Ruoxu seemed to be afraid of something, and he was unwilling to speak.

However, Pei Zhen was stubborn and refused to leave.

Jiang Ruoxu sighed, put his fingers between his lips, and said in a low voice, "That person is by our side."
