Sword cuts mountains and rivers
Chapter 70
It was only when Ye Wanqing said the words out that she realized that it was inappropriate. He and Jun Chi were mentors and apprentices, and they were not good friends.
Ye Wanqing frowned slightly, he didn't dare to push Jun Chi away now, Jun Chi didn't hold him for too long, and soon let go of him, his eyes seemed to gradually clear up.
The frost faded from Jun Chi's chin. Jun Chi turned pale, and slowly let go of him, whispering to him, "I lost my composure just now."
Ye Wanqing didn't know what to say, he looked at Jun Chi's eyes, and the emotions in Jun Chi's eyes had all subsided, and when he looked at him, he returned to his usual gentleness and restraint.
"I have to trouble Xuan'er to keep this matter a secret for me," Jun Chi told him.
"I know...I won't tell anyone."
Seeing that Jun Chi opened the curtain and seemed to be leaving, Ye Wanqing hurriedly called out, "Master, where are you going? There are evil spirits outside now."
Jun Chi looked back at him, his tone softened a bit, "I'm not fit to be with you today, you should rest well, I'll be back before dawn."
When the voice fell, the figure disappeared by the tent.
There was a ray of cold wind blowing in, and the boundless moonlight outside, he watched Jun Chi's figure disappear, and the curtain closed again.
The line of Ye Wanqing's lips was slightly tense, he held his sword and slowly leaned on it and continued to meditate, without sleep all night, and meditated like this until dawn.
After dawn, Jun Chi came back, his face looked the same as usual, they had already collected the bill, and it was Jun Chi who came back to clean up.
He was unable to help, and asked, "Master, what happened to you the day before?"
"Last night?" Jun Chi replied, "It's still a problem left over from before, thanks to Xuan'er who woke me up the day before."
Jun Chi said again: "I would also like to thank Xuan'er, last night I lost my mind and mistook someone, so don't take Xuan'er to heart."
The other party's tone is gentle, even if the voice is rough, it is not annoying.
Ye Wanqing was a little weird at first, but for some reason she always thought of Xiaojunlan.Now that Jun Chi was acting so naturally, he dispelled his doubts upon hearing this.
He was really dazed, the last time he stabbed Xiaojunlan in the heart, if Xiaojunlan could forgive him like this, then he would admire Xiaojunlan's heart.
What's more, Jun Chi has always been relaxed with him, never overstepping the line.Except for yesterday, it turned out that yesterday was the wrong person?
Does that mean he was someone else?
Ye Wanqing thought about it, he had heard that Jun Chi had a Taoist companion, and Jun Chi's former Taoist companion had passed away.
"Who does Master recognize me as?" He thought about it and asked.
Jun Chi paused with his fingertips, looked at him and smiled slightly, "Xuan'er really wants to know?"
Ye Wanqing glanced at Jun Chi, "It's fine if Master doesn't want to say it."
"No one, last time I took away two story books from Xuan'er's room. I was fascinated by reading them before, but last night I was too involved in the drama, and I regarded Xuan'er as the flower demon in it."
Ye Wanqing almost believed it, but when Jun Chi talked nonsense with him so unblinkingly, he froze for a moment.
He knew that script, it was about the story of the scholar and the flower demon, the scholar abandoned the flower demon because of his future, and regretted it later, the most classic line in it was the line "If I made a mistake, would you will leave me".
Such a string, last night Jun Chi also hugged him and asked this question, as if it was really the case.
While Ye Wanqing was distracted, Jun Chi had already packed his things, and said to him, "Don't think about it, there are still a few days to go, and you will pass by the ghost world next, so be vigilant."
"Hey——" Ye Wanqing knew that Junchi was indeed playing tricks on him this time, and he had already left, so he was a little speechless.
The more reluctant to say it, the more interested he became.He became curious, and couldn't get the words out of Junchi's mouth, so he went to ask Xiao Buyi about it.
When he went back, Xiao Buyi and Yan Shi were playing chess in the carriage, he leaned next to Xiao Buyi, one of them was black and the other was white, Xiao Buyi was black.
Xiao Buyi glanced at him, lowered his eyebrows, and asked, "How did you rest last night?"
"Where did you get the rest? You meditated all night," Ye Wanqing said. "How did you rest last night? Did you really go to find them?"
Xiao Buyi looked at him with a half-smile, and waited for Yan Shi to drop a ball, and then he dropped a ball, the winner or loser had already been decided.
The carriage drove all night, and Ye Wanqing slept with Xiao Buyi that night, so he asked about Jun Chi before going to bed.
"You mean Jun Chi's former Taoist partner? They were the marriage contract of Master Zulian, and the two seemed to have no relationship. Later, Jun Chi's Taoist partner died on the battlefield between the fairy clan and the ghost clan."
Ye Wanqing groaned, probably Xiao Buyi didn't know much about it, he caught a glimpse of the evil spirits outside, the closer he was to the ghost world, the more evil spirits there were.
"Why did you take a detour to this road?"
Xiao Buyi: "Of course the elders have their own plans. It must be that this side is not peaceful, and they will go here to clean up the evil spirits on the border."
Responding casually, Xiao Buyi propped his forehead, looked out with deep eyes at the same time, then thought of something, and suddenly laughed.
It stands to reason that Feng Lai's elders would not be so active in cleaning up the evil spirits, it is estimated that this was deliberately arranged by someone.
There is only one person who is responsible to the people in this way.
Xiao Buyi spoke cautiously, "It stands to reason that he wouldn't go this way. These evil spirits can be controlled or ignored, and the people living here are not in the city of Kyushu. It would be troublesome and troublesome to manage."
Ye Wanqing frowned when she heard the words, and quickly understood, "Don't care about the people outside the city of Jiuzhou... because they don't have the ability to invite disciples of cultivators?"
"Yeah, at most the people near the city are in charge. As for such a remote and poor place, I can't take care of it even if I want to. Although there are disciples who cultivate immortals who occasionally stop by to help, they are only a few. They can't afford to invite disciples to come over. Lingshi."
Xiao Buyi laughed: "Junior brother, if you were you, would you like to help the rich city lord, or would you risk your life to go to the dangerous border to help these poor people?"
At first, there was an enchantment set up for these people, but this place is close to the ghost world. When the enchantment is weak, Xie Chong will run out. Unarmed people are good fertilizer for Xie Chong.
This place is remote, and the barrier is repaired only once a year. The evil spirits are no more stupid than humans, and will hide on the day of barrier repair, pretending to be a peaceful scene.In addition, most of the disciples of cultivating immortals think that there is an enchantment here, so they don't worry too much, and the people of the realm have little contact with the realm of cultivating immortals. If things go on like this, a vicious circle will form.
"The border people have always been a problem in every city. The city lord has set up a special place to manage the border people, but this is not in the city, and they don't pay much attention to it, so there are often borders forming ogre nests."
Xiao Buyi's phoenix eyes were raised slightly, with a smile on his face, but his ink-like eyes were extremely cold, "Master, do you know how the ogre's lair is formed? A little ghost will become an ogre if he eats ten people, and an ogre There are at least a hundred ghosts in the lair, and the formation of an ogre lair means that there are at least a thousand people who died."
Ye Wanqing had heard a lot of allusions to the ogre's lair, and he recalled old images in his mind.A long time ago, he asked Xiaojunlan why he didn't eat meat, and Xiaojunlan said that it was because he witnessed them eating in the lair of ghouls.
Xiao Buyi: "For the first time when the ogre's lair appeared, Xiao Junlan applied to the Presbyterian Council to include the Jiemin into the scope of responsibility of the Immortal Sect, making protecting the Jiemin the obligation of Kyushu's disciples."
Ye Wanqing had never heard of this rule, so he could guess later, this proposal was naturally not passed.
"The elders didn't agree?"
"Yeah, I didn't agree, because it contradicts the royal family's wish to build the city of Kyushu first."
Xiao Buyi laughed: "Only one Xiaojunlan in the world is not enough, unless thousands of Xiaojunlans appear, we can fundamentally change."
The lips of the young man on the opposite side were tense, Xiao Buyi glanced at him, his eyes were full of smiles, he looked at Ye Wanqing amused, "Do you not like to hear what I said, junior brother, you are blinded by hatred, you only want to see What you see, you don’t want to see what you don’t want to see.”
Ye Wanqing was used to being poor by Xiao Buyi, he cared about those people in the world and worried about them, but he was not angry when he heard the words, and shook his head.
"If you say that about him, you don't want to kill him."
"This is not contradictory. I am different from him. Even if I want to do the same thing, he will only become a stumbling block in my way. Why don't I get rid of him now to prevent future troubles."
Ye Wanqing didn't know about Xiao Buyi's twists and turns. He meditated the day before and planned to go to bed. Before going to bed, he turned his back to Xiao Buyi and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
When he was about to fall asleep, Xiao Buyi helped him tuck the quilt, Xiao Buyi seemed to say something in a low voice, but he didn't hear clearly.
Ye Wanqing woke up in the morning and found that she was wrapped into a rice dumpling. He stayed there for a while, when Xiao Buyi came in from the outside and found some spiritual fruits from somewhere, and put the spiritual fruits beside him.
"Are you awake? Only our tents have not been confiscated. I'm planning to come in and call you."
Ye Wanqing came out of the quilt, he was a little speechless, took the fruit and went to the side, "Why didn't you call me in the morning?"
"I can't bear to call you," Xiao Buyi looked at him with a half-smile, "Is this going to be left for me to clean up?"
Ye Wanqing coughed, was soured by the fruit, he was clumsy and unhelpful, and then pushed aside by Xiao Buyi in disgust, Xiao Buyi took care of the rest.
Two days later, as Xiao Buyi said, they reached the edge of the ghost world, and the elder temporarily assigned them a task.
"I'm not sure if there are ogre lairs here, but there are several broken barriers that need to be repaired. We need to stay here for a few days. You are responsible for cleaning up the evil spirits in the nearby villages."
The disciples selected this time were all Feng Lai's top leaders. After the elder explained, they were quickly divided into groups. Ye Wanqing and Xiao Buyi were in a group as usual.
The four of them were responsible for searching the nearby villages for evil spirits, and also distributed evil spirit charms to the surrounding villages.
Jun Chi was going to stay to repair the barrier, but before leaving, he glanced at him, frowned slightly, and then walked towards him.
"Master?" Ye Wanqing was still drawing talismans with Xiao Buyi, and when she saw Jun Chi approaching, she hurriedly put away the ugly talismans she had drawn.
Jun Chi responded and said to him: "I don't trust you, I will go there with you later."
Other parents and elders did not follow her disciples, Ye Wanqing was a little embarrassed, met Xiao Buyi's gaze, and replied: "Master, stay here to help, we are together, and we will take care of each other if something happens, Master, don't worry .”
Jun Chi made a decision not to change it, and discussed with him in a soft voice, "There is something strange about the enchantment here, I just want to go and have a look, Xuan'er might as well come with me."
It's safe to bring people with you.
Ye Wanqing didn't say anything anymore, the two of them turned into a three of them, Lu Junchi didn't talk much, it was him and Xiao Buyi talking.
"Junior brother, I saw that you have been borrowing classics on ghosts, so have you ever read the twelve evil gods under the throne of ghosts?"
Ye Wanqing had read it, and after returning from Luoxiao City, he went to make up the classics, so he nodded.
"Last time I met the copper and silver god, who is a snake."
Xiao Buyi looked at the distant sky, there was no city here, and there was an endless wilderness in the distance, the sky was bright and clear, and the sky at the end was faintly red like blood.
There is the ghost realm of the mirror of life and death.
"Then do you know that there is an evil god among them who is in charge of the desert, and is the only alien god among them, and was once the mountain god of alien races."
Ye Wanqing stepped on the soft sand with black boots, he met Xiao Buyi's eyes, Xiao Buyi raised an eyebrow at him.
"I just mentioned it casually. It is not a good sign that the evil gods are born one by one. I am afraid that the ghost world has not been peaceful recently."
Ye Wanqing frowned slightly, but he didn't answer.
If I remember correctly, the mountain god in charge of the desert belongs to the sign of sheep. In ancient times, people who worshiped the mountain god would make simple goat totems on their houses. Later, the goat totem became the symbol of this evil god.
What Xiao Buyi said is correct, the birth of evil gods one by one not only means that the ghost world is not peaceful, but the human race is also not peaceful.
This indicates that the ghost king may be born soon.
The evil gods of the ghost world, these twelve have different personalities. Last time, the copper and silver gods were considered cruel-sad gods who indulged in evil. It was just that the copper and silver gods were trapped at that time, otherwise they would not be so easy to escape.
And this mountain god is famous for his punishment.Those who enshrine him will be blessed, and those who do not enshrine him will be retaliated by him.And enshrining him requires sincerity, and those who are not sincere will become sacrifices.
The twelve evil gods have different preferences. The only thing they have in common is that they only obey the orders of the ghost king. Now that the ghost king is not around, no one is controlling them. They can almost do whatever they want.
Ye Wanqing noticed that Jun Chi's expression was serious, so the situation here must not be good.
He followed Jun Chi's gaze and saw that there were many red-leaved forests here, and many human face flowers were planted on the edge. From a distance, the large areas of human face flowers looked like human heads growing from the ground.
The blood surged together, making people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.The human face flower is one of the favorite sacrifices of the mountain gods.
"Master, those people are ugly, should we destroy them?"
Jun Chi shook his head, "If you touch its sacrifice, you will only be cursed, and the mountain god can communicate with witches."
"Idiot," Xiao Buyi laughed, "If you touch its sacrifice today, maybe tomorrow it will become the fertilizer of human face flowers."
"The curse of the mountain god will come true. Even if it is a small curse, for example, if you cannot go out today, you will probably be trapped here tonight."
Ye Wanqing silently withdrew the hand that was about to draw the sword.
"Then we have to find its idol first?"
Jun Chi hummed, "I hope it hasn't cultivated into a real body. If it has already taken shape, destroying the statue will not help."
There are villages here, Ye Wanqing just took a look, there are goat totems on most of the doors, which means that these people worship evil gods.
On the edge, there were two families without goat totems. Ye Wanqing knocked on the door, but no one answered, so he pushed the door open.
Weeds have grown in the courtyard, the stone table is covered with dust, and the old blood has melted into the wall.
There were two corpses piled up in the corner, and the two corpses were arranged in the shape of a "sheep" in a distorted posture. There were dense black ghost writings on their corpses.
Ye Wanqing did not know how many books of ghost essays he had read, and he read out all those surging ghost essays together.
"The people who are under the sin of the mountain gods will go to the Red Lotus Hell to be slaves forever after death."
Ye Wanqing's voice paused slightly, this should be the curse of the mountain god.
He watched Jun Chi come forward, Xiao Buyi grabbed his sleeve, and Xiao Buyi dragged him back a step.
"Your master is much more capable than you, so don't go up and help."
Jun Chi put his fingertips on those black ghost writings, and then crushed them with his bare hands. He seemed to be able to hear shrill screams in his ears, and the two skeletons on the ground scattered with a "bang", no longer in a twisted posture. .
The three of them helped to bury the two bones, and the rest of the yard was like this. All the houses without goat totems had no living people, only bones left.
As for those with goat totems, Junchi didn't let them visit rashly, and let the two of them stay where they were, and Junchi went there.
Ye Wanqing was not worried about Jun Chi, but he listened to Jun Chi's words and just stood there waiting, and after a while, someone came out.
"Master, what's the matter? Are they okay?"
Jun Chi shook his head, "Everyone is still there, but their minds are not clear, as if they have been controlled."
"It's getting dark now, let's go back first."
It is estimated that many elders are not aware of this matter, the evil god is a serious matter, and their next move needs to be discussed.
Xiao Buyi followed beside him unhurriedly, and lazily said, "I don't know whether to say we are lucky or not, it's hard to deal with Ningsi, if we're not careful, maybe we'll all end up here."
"Junior Brother, are you afraid?" Xiao Buyi asked him.
Ye Wanqing glanced at him, he wasn't really scared, maybe Xiao Buyi wasn't nervous at all, and Jun Chi was there.
He shook his head, but Xiao Buyi laughed and leaned over to chat with him.
"I guess the person who proposed to come here will not be entertained. I guess there will be a play to watch when I go back later."
Ye Wanqing was a little speechless about Xiao Buyi's habit of watching the show. This matter is indeed easy to cause controversy. It is a troublesome matter, but it will be even more troublesome when evil gods are involved.
He could understand, but he remembered the dead villagers he saw just now, because they didn't worship the evil gods, they would be cursed to go to hell after death.
They entered the Immortal Gate and practiced to improve their cultivation base, originally to protect the people of Kyushu and to be able to resist the ghost clan.
If he said this now, Bao Buqi would be ridiculed.
Ye Wanqing went back with a heavy heart, the three of them went back, and the other elders and disciples had also returned.
"Xuan'er, stay here, don't run around, I'm going to discuss this matter with the elders."
Ye Wanqing obediently did not run around, he noticed that Xiao Buyi went to Yan Shi's side, Yan Shi's face was very dark, as if his puppet was stained with something.
There was something surging in the dark environment, Ye Wanqing could see clearly, it was ghost writings stuck to Yan Shi's puppet.
Xiao Buyi was helping Yan Shi deal with it, Shen Que also recognized it, and those ghost texts disappeared after a while.
"Junior Brother, come here and recognize him. Find out what this means."
Ye Wanqing went to Xiao Buyi's side to take a look, and it was similar to what he saw on the villagers' corpses, only a few words were added.
"A criminal who disobeys will enter Shura Hell."
Ye Wanqing became a little curious, "What did you do? This should be a new curse added by the mountain god, aimed specifically at you."
But fortunately, the ghost text is on the puppet, not on Yan Shi.
Shen Que: "I was still talking about him on the way, telling him not to go to those houses with goat totems. He didn't go by himself, put the puppet in, and then came back with something on the puppet, and he wanted to cut us several times."
Yan Shi's eyebrows and eyes were a little gloomy, he had been repairing his precious puppet, and it seemed that he wanted to kill Ning Si.
The disciples on their side were all guessing what the elder's side would decide. Ye Wanqing moved closer to the elder's side. He didn't know what they were talking about. They were separated by the barrier, so he couldn't hear them.
Xiao Buyi was still comforting Yan Shi, "Calm down, people say they are evil gods, you will die if you move your fingers like this."
Shen Que agreed: "Yeah, what Xiao Buyi said is right, don't be impulsive, this is their territory, we must be thankful for our smooth going out."
A burst of dust came towards us, the elders over there discussed for a while, and finally reached an agreement, one of the elders left with their disciples first, and the remaining elders stayed to deal with the evil god Ning Si.
"This matter needs to be notified to the elders. It is inconvenient to travel at night. You can leave tomorrow morning."
They were divided into two groups to watch the night, Ye Wanqing and Xiao Buyi stayed on the night together, the torches were brightly lit in the night, as far as the eye could see, they were both scarlet in the depths of the forest from time to time.
Xiao Buyi picked a Bodhisattva leaf from nowhere, put it on the Bodhisattva leaf, and blew a tune for him.
"Junior brother, do you think we can get out of here smoothly?"
The song was long, and Ye Wanqing almost fell asleep when he heard it. He blinked, looked at Xiao Buyi, and had to admit that some people are born without talent in certain aspects.
For example, he draws pictures, for example, Xiao Yiyi plays music.
"How do I know that."
Xiao Buyi tilted his head slightly, looked at him and laughed, "You... are still as boring as before."
Ye Wanqing held the sword and did not speak. He touched the outer flame of the edge of the torch with his fingertips, touched it with a little distance, his fingers were very hot, and he slowly withdrew his hand.
"Junior brother, I used to tell fortunes in Jiannan Villa, do you still remember?"
Ye Wanqing nodded, he still remembered that Xiao Buyi lied to him for money.
"Don't tell me, I have done a lot of fortune-telling for people, and my intuition has become very good. I have a hunch that it may not be easy for us to go out this time."
"Good junior, go to your master if you have something to do, follow him and don't get lost."
Xiao Buyi seemed to say it casually, and got up after finishing speaking, "It's time, I'll call the disciple on duty."
Ye Wanqing returned to the camp, without Xiao Buyi's reminder, the way ahead was clearly laid out for them.
The first half of the night was considered peaceful, but something happened in the second half of the night. With the scream of a disciple, the ever-burning candle was lit, and Ye Wanqing woke up immediately, opened the tent and went out.
The yellow sand rolled towards the sky outside, as if it could drown them at any time, they all came out of the tent, and the elder sent them a message.
"You can't stay here anymore, you guys leave here quickly and go to the red leaf forest... there is a temple there, we will meet there later."
Ye Wanqing took a mouthful of sand, and the rough smell of dust spread between his lips and teeth. He felt that the elder's reminder was obviously too late, and several disciples had already been sucked into the depths of the yellow sand.
This is a common sight outside the Great Wall, but at this time it is not a natural occurrence, but man-made.
"Master—"
Ye Wanqing tried to find Jun Chi's figure, but he didn't see Jun Chi. The evil spirit appeared at night, and his sword light appeared. Many disciples were busy solving the evil spirit while preventing them from being swept away by the yellow sand.
The ground was sinking rapidly, Ye Wanqing was in a bad mood, the crimson sword energy sliced the evil spirit into ashes, the yellow sand swept him all over, and when he was about to be buried by the yellow sand, one hand grabbed him.
Ye Wanqing saw a cold mask, he was held by Jun Chi's wrist, and the next moment, Huang Sha involved Jun Chi.
He ate a mouth full of sand, coughed several times, and his face was also scratched by the sand.The hand holding him quickly pulled him into his arms.
Jun Chi hugged him and helped him block the sand, the surroundings were plunged into darkness, the whistling wind could be heard in his ears, and the air gradually became damp and sticky.
The two of them seemed to have fallen from a high place. Ye Wanqing was in Jun Chi's arms when he fell, and Jun Chi also acted as a pad for him when he fell.
There was a sound on the ground, Jun Chi let out a muffled snort, and Ye Wanqing immediately got up from Jun Chi's body.
"Master, are you okay?"
Ye Wanqing's lip line was tense, he was pressing Junchi just now, presumably Junchi fell hard, he heard the sound of bones breaking just now.
"It's okay." Jun Chi got up, his face was pale, he coughed twice, and then a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his lips.
Ye Wanqing: "..."
Is this all right?He thought about it, maybe Junchi had self-respect in front of him, so he found a handkerchief from himself and handed it to Junchi.
"Master, where have we been dragged?"
Ye Wanqing looked around, it seemed to be an underground palace, with a stone wall on the top and many naturally formed stone pillars around.
Jun Chi wiped off the blood with his handkerchief, looked around, paused, and said, "Ningsi originally drowned us, but it seems that it came here by mistake... I don't know where it is."
"I heard that there were ancient countries on the border. They were ancient countries outside the Great Wall, but they disappeared out of thin air. It seems that they were affected by the yellow sand terrain."
Jun Chi hummed and asked him, "Is this what Xuan'er saw in the classics?"
"Yeah, it's a history of thousands of years ago. I don't know if it's true or not."
Seeing Jun Chi's pale face, Ye Wanqing couldn't help asking, "Master, your body, should we find a place to rest first?"
He brought it up, but Jun Chi shook his head and said to him, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we don't know the situation here yet."
The stone cave extends in all directions, Ye Wanqing glanced at the top again, they just fell from the top, I don't know where the mechanism was triggered.
The two of them walked forward, and there was a dark stone road in front of them. The stone road became narrower and narrower. Ye Wanqing touched Jun Chi's fingers, and Jun Chi's fingers were very cold.
When he ran into Jun Chi, Jun Chi deliberately avoided him, not letting him touch him, so he didn't move.
Until Jun Chi stopped and pressed his hand, he was about to say something, but Jun Chi pressed his fingertips against his lips.
The author has something to say:
Not finished, continue tomorrow.
Ye Wanqing frowned slightly, he didn't dare to push Jun Chi away now, Jun Chi didn't hold him for too long, and soon let go of him, his eyes seemed to gradually clear up.
The frost faded from Jun Chi's chin. Jun Chi turned pale, and slowly let go of him, whispering to him, "I lost my composure just now."
Ye Wanqing didn't know what to say, he looked at Jun Chi's eyes, and the emotions in Jun Chi's eyes had all subsided, and when he looked at him, he returned to his usual gentleness and restraint.
"I have to trouble Xuan'er to keep this matter a secret for me," Jun Chi told him.
"I know...I won't tell anyone."
Seeing that Jun Chi opened the curtain and seemed to be leaving, Ye Wanqing hurriedly called out, "Master, where are you going? There are evil spirits outside now."
Jun Chi looked back at him, his tone softened a bit, "I'm not fit to be with you today, you should rest well, I'll be back before dawn."
When the voice fell, the figure disappeared by the tent.
There was a ray of cold wind blowing in, and the boundless moonlight outside, he watched Jun Chi's figure disappear, and the curtain closed again.
The line of Ye Wanqing's lips was slightly tense, he held his sword and slowly leaned on it and continued to meditate, without sleep all night, and meditated like this until dawn.
After dawn, Jun Chi came back, his face looked the same as usual, they had already collected the bill, and it was Jun Chi who came back to clean up.
He was unable to help, and asked, "Master, what happened to you the day before?"
"Last night?" Jun Chi replied, "It's still a problem left over from before, thanks to Xuan'er who woke me up the day before."
Jun Chi said again: "I would also like to thank Xuan'er, last night I lost my mind and mistook someone, so don't take Xuan'er to heart."
The other party's tone is gentle, even if the voice is rough, it is not annoying.
Ye Wanqing was a little weird at first, but for some reason she always thought of Xiaojunlan.Now that Jun Chi was acting so naturally, he dispelled his doubts upon hearing this.
He was really dazed, the last time he stabbed Xiaojunlan in the heart, if Xiaojunlan could forgive him like this, then he would admire Xiaojunlan's heart.
What's more, Jun Chi has always been relaxed with him, never overstepping the line.Except for yesterday, it turned out that yesterday was the wrong person?
Does that mean he was someone else?
Ye Wanqing thought about it, he had heard that Jun Chi had a Taoist companion, and Jun Chi's former Taoist companion had passed away.
"Who does Master recognize me as?" He thought about it and asked.
Jun Chi paused with his fingertips, looked at him and smiled slightly, "Xuan'er really wants to know?"
Ye Wanqing glanced at Jun Chi, "It's fine if Master doesn't want to say it."
"No one, last time I took away two story books from Xuan'er's room. I was fascinated by reading them before, but last night I was too involved in the drama, and I regarded Xuan'er as the flower demon in it."
Ye Wanqing almost believed it, but when Jun Chi talked nonsense with him so unblinkingly, he froze for a moment.
He knew that script, it was about the story of the scholar and the flower demon, the scholar abandoned the flower demon because of his future, and regretted it later, the most classic line in it was the line "If I made a mistake, would you will leave me".
Such a string, last night Jun Chi also hugged him and asked this question, as if it was really the case.
While Ye Wanqing was distracted, Jun Chi had already packed his things, and said to him, "Don't think about it, there are still a few days to go, and you will pass by the ghost world next, so be vigilant."
"Hey——" Ye Wanqing knew that Junchi was indeed playing tricks on him this time, and he had already left, so he was a little speechless.
The more reluctant to say it, the more interested he became.He became curious, and couldn't get the words out of Junchi's mouth, so he went to ask Xiao Buyi about it.
When he went back, Xiao Buyi and Yan Shi were playing chess in the carriage, he leaned next to Xiao Buyi, one of them was black and the other was white, Xiao Buyi was black.
Xiao Buyi glanced at him, lowered his eyebrows, and asked, "How did you rest last night?"
"Where did you get the rest? You meditated all night," Ye Wanqing said. "How did you rest last night? Did you really go to find them?"
Xiao Buyi looked at him with a half-smile, and waited for Yan Shi to drop a ball, and then he dropped a ball, the winner or loser had already been decided.
The carriage drove all night, and Ye Wanqing slept with Xiao Buyi that night, so he asked about Jun Chi before going to bed.
"You mean Jun Chi's former Taoist partner? They were the marriage contract of Master Zulian, and the two seemed to have no relationship. Later, Jun Chi's Taoist partner died on the battlefield between the fairy clan and the ghost clan."
Ye Wanqing groaned, probably Xiao Buyi didn't know much about it, he caught a glimpse of the evil spirits outside, the closer he was to the ghost world, the more evil spirits there were.
"Why did you take a detour to this road?"
Xiao Buyi: "Of course the elders have their own plans. It must be that this side is not peaceful, and they will go here to clean up the evil spirits on the border."
Responding casually, Xiao Buyi propped his forehead, looked out with deep eyes at the same time, then thought of something, and suddenly laughed.
It stands to reason that Feng Lai's elders would not be so active in cleaning up the evil spirits, it is estimated that this was deliberately arranged by someone.
There is only one person who is responsible to the people in this way.
Xiao Buyi spoke cautiously, "It stands to reason that he wouldn't go this way. These evil spirits can be controlled or ignored, and the people living here are not in the city of Kyushu. It would be troublesome and troublesome to manage."
Ye Wanqing frowned when she heard the words, and quickly understood, "Don't care about the people outside the city of Jiuzhou... because they don't have the ability to invite disciples of cultivators?"
"Yeah, at most the people near the city are in charge. As for such a remote and poor place, I can't take care of it even if I want to. Although there are disciples who cultivate immortals who occasionally stop by to help, they are only a few. They can't afford to invite disciples to come over. Lingshi."
Xiao Buyi laughed: "Junior brother, if you were you, would you like to help the rich city lord, or would you risk your life to go to the dangerous border to help these poor people?"
At first, there was an enchantment set up for these people, but this place is close to the ghost world. When the enchantment is weak, Xie Chong will run out. Unarmed people are good fertilizer for Xie Chong.
This place is remote, and the barrier is repaired only once a year. The evil spirits are no more stupid than humans, and will hide on the day of barrier repair, pretending to be a peaceful scene.In addition, most of the disciples of cultivating immortals think that there is an enchantment here, so they don't worry too much, and the people of the realm have little contact with the realm of cultivating immortals. If things go on like this, a vicious circle will form.
"The border people have always been a problem in every city. The city lord has set up a special place to manage the border people, but this is not in the city, and they don't pay much attention to it, so there are often borders forming ogre nests."
Xiao Buyi's phoenix eyes were raised slightly, with a smile on his face, but his ink-like eyes were extremely cold, "Master, do you know how the ogre's lair is formed? A little ghost will become an ogre if he eats ten people, and an ogre There are at least a hundred ghosts in the lair, and the formation of an ogre lair means that there are at least a thousand people who died."
Ye Wanqing had heard a lot of allusions to the ogre's lair, and he recalled old images in his mind.A long time ago, he asked Xiaojunlan why he didn't eat meat, and Xiaojunlan said that it was because he witnessed them eating in the lair of ghouls.
Xiao Buyi: "For the first time when the ogre's lair appeared, Xiao Junlan applied to the Presbyterian Council to include the Jiemin into the scope of responsibility of the Immortal Sect, making protecting the Jiemin the obligation of Kyushu's disciples."
Ye Wanqing had never heard of this rule, so he could guess later, this proposal was naturally not passed.
"The elders didn't agree?"
"Yeah, I didn't agree, because it contradicts the royal family's wish to build the city of Kyushu first."
Xiao Buyi laughed: "Only one Xiaojunlan in the world is not enough, unless thousands of Xiaojunlans appear, we can fundamentally change."
The lips of the young man on the opposite side were tense, Xiao Buyi glanced at him, his eyes were full of smiles, he looked at Ye Wanqing amused, "Do you not like to hear what I said, junior brother, you are blinded by hatred, you only want to see What you see, you don’t want to see what you don’t want to see.”
Ye Wanqing was used to being poor by Xiao Buyi, he cared about those people in the world and worried about them, but he was not angry when he heard the words, and shook his head.
"If you say that about him, you don't want to kill him."
"This is not contradictory. I am different from him. Even if I want to do the same thing, he will only become a stumbling block in my way. Why don't I get rid of him now to prevent future troubles."
Ye Wanqing didn't know about Xiao Buyi's twists and turns. He meditated the day before and planned to go to bed. Before going to bed, he turned his back to Xiao Buyi and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
When he was about to fall asleep, Xiao Buyi helped him tuck the quilt, Xiao Buyi seemed to say something in a low voice, but he didn't hear clearly.
Ye Wanqing woke up in the morning and found that she was wrapped into a rice dumpling. He stayed there for a while, when Xiao Buyi came in from the outside and found some spiritual fruits from somewhere, and put the spiritual fruits beside him.
"Are you awake? Only our tents have not been confiscated. I'm planning to come in and call you."
Ye Wanqing came out of the quilt, he was a little speechless, took the fruit and went to the side, "Why didn't you call me in the morning?"
"I can't bear to call you," Xiao Buyi looked at him with a half-smile, "Is this going to be left for me to clean up?"
Ye Wanqing coughed, was soured by the fruit, he was clumsy and unhelpful, and then pushed aside by Xiao Buyi in disgust, Xiao Buyi took care of the rest.
Two days later, as Xiao Buyi said, they reached the edge of the ghost world, and the elder temporarily assigned them a task.
"I'm not sure if there are ogre lairs here, but there are several broken barriers that need to be repaired. We need to stay here for a few days. You are responsible for cleaning up the evil spirits in the nearby villages."
The disciples selected this time were all Feng Lai's top leaders. After the elder explained, they were quickly divided into groups. Ye Wanqing and Xiao Buyi were in a group as usual.
The four of them were responsible for searching the nearby villages for evil spirits, and also distributed evil spirit charms to the surrounding villages.
Jun Chi was going to stay to repair the barrier, but before leaving, he glanced at him, frowned slightly, and then walked towards him.
"Master?" Ye Wanqing was still drawing talismans with Xiao Buyi, and when she saw Jun Chi approaching, she hurriedly put away the ugly talismans she had drawn.
Jun Chi responded and said to him: "I don't trust you, I will go there with you later."
Other parents and elders did not follow her disciples, Ye Wanqing was a little embarrassed, met Xiao Buyi's gaze, and replied: "Master, stay here to help, we are together, and we will take care of each other if something happens, Master, don't worry .”
Jun Chi made a decision not to change it, and discussed with him in a soft voice, "There is something strange about the enchantment here, I just want to go and have a look, Xuan'er might as well come with me."
It's safe to bring people with you.
Ye Wanqing didn't say anything anymore, the two of them turned into a three of them, Lu Junchi didn't talk much, it was him and Xiao Buyi talking.
"Junior brother, I saw that you have been borrowing classics on ghosts, so have you ever read the twelve evil gods under the throne of ghosts?"
Ye Wanqing had read it, and after returning from Luoxiao City, he went to make up the classics, so he nodded.
"Last time I met the copper and silver god, who is a snake."
Xiao Buyi looked at the distant sky, there was no city here, and there was an endless wilderness in the distance, the sky was bright and clear, and the sky at the end was faintly red like blood.
There is the ghost realm of the mirror of life and death.
"Then do you know that there is an evil god among them who is in charge of the desert, and is the only alien god among them, and was once the mountain god of alien races."
Ye Wanqing stepped on the soft sand with black boots, he met Xiao Buyi's eyes, Xiao Buyi raised an eyebrow at him.
"I just mentioned it casually. It is not a good sign that the evil gods are born one by one. I am afraid that the ghost world has not been peaceful recently."
Ye Wanqing frowned slightly, but he didn't answer.
If I remember correctly, the mountain god in charge of the desert belongs to the sign of sheep. In ancient times, people who worshiped the mountain god would make simple goat totems on their houses. Later, the goat totem became the symbol of this evil god.
What Xiao Buyi said is correct, the birth of evil gods one by one not only means that the ghost world is not peaceful, but the human race is also not peaceful.
This indicates that the ghost king may be born soon.
The evil gods of the ghost world, these twelve have different personalities. Last time, the copper and silver gods were considered cruel-sad gods who indulged in evil. It was just that the copper and silver gods were trapped at that time, otherwise they would not be so easy to escape.
And this mountain god is famous for his punishment.Those who enshrine him will be blessed, and those who do not enshrine him will be retaliated by him.And enshrining him requires sincerity, and those who are not sincere will become sacrifices.
The twelve evil gods have different preferences. The only thing they have in common is that they only obey the orders of the ghost king. Now that the ghost king is not around, no one is controlling them. They can almost do whatever they want.
Ye Wanqing noticed that Jun Chi's expression was serious, so the situation here must not be good.
He followed Jun Chi's gaze and saw that there were many red-leaved forests here, and many human face flowers were planted on the edge. From a distance, the large areas of human face flowers looked like human heads growing from the ground.
The blood surged together, making people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.The human face flower is one of the favorite sacrifices of the mountain gods.
"Master, those people are ugly, should we destroy them?"
Jun Chi shook his head, "If you touch its sacrifice, you will only be cursed, and the mountain god can communicate with witches."
"Idiot," Xiao Buyi laughed, "If you touch its sacrifice today, maybe tomorrow it will become the fertilizer of human face flowers."
"The curse of the mountain god will come true. Even if it is a small curse, for example, if you cannot go out today, you will probably be trapped here tonight."
Ye Wanqing silently withdrew the hand that was about to draw the sword.
"Then we have to find its idol first?"
Jun Chi hummed, "I hope it hasn't cultivated into a real body. If it has already taken shape, destroying the statue will not help."
There are villages here, Ye Wanqing just took a look, there are goat totems on most of the doors, which means that these people worship evil gods.
On the edge, there were two families without goat totems. Ye Wanqing knocked on the door, but no one answered, so he pushed the door open.
Weeds have grown in the courtyard, the stone table is covered with dust, and the old blood has melted into the wall.
There were two corpses piled up in the corner, and the two corpses were arranged in the shape of a "sheep" in a distorted posture. There were dense black ghost writings on their corpses.
Ye Wanqing did not know how many books of ghost essays he had read, and he read out all those surging ghost essays together.
"The people who are under the sin of the mountain gods will go to the Red Lotus Hell to be slaves forever after death."
Ye Wanqing's voice paused slightly, this should be the curse of the mountain god.
He watched Jun Chi come forward, Xiao Buyi grabbed his sleeve, and Xiao Buyi dragged him back a step.
"Your master is much more capable than you, so don't go up and help."
Jun Chi put his fingertips on those black ghost writings, and then crushed them with his bare hands. He seemed to be able to hear shrill screams in his ears, and the two skeletons on the ground scattered with a "bang", no longer in a twisted posture. .
The three of them helped to bury the two bones, and the rest of the yard was like this. All the houses without goat totems had no living people, only bones left.
As for those with goat totems, Junchi didn't let them visit rashly, and let the two of them stay where they were, and Junchi went there.
Ye Wanqing was not worried about Jun Chi, but he listened to Jun Chi's words and just stood there waiting, and after a while, someone came out.
"Master, what's the matter? Are they okay?"
Jun Chi shook his head, "Everyone is still there, but their minds are not clear, as if they have been controlled."
"It's getting dark now, let's go back first."
It is estimated that many elders are not aware of this matter, the evil god is a serious matter, and their next move needs to be discussed.
Xiao Buyi followed beside him unhurriedly, and lazily said, "I don't know whether to say we are lucky or not, it's hard to deal with Ningsi, if we're not careful, maybe we'll all end up here."
"Junior Brother, are you afraid?" Xiao Buyi asked him.
Ye Wanqing glanced at him, he wasn't really scared, maybe Xiao Buyi wasn't nervous at all, and Jun Chi was there.
He shook his head, but Xiao Buyi laughed and leaned over to chat with him.
"I guess the person who proposed to come here will not be entertained. I guess there will be a play to watch when I go back later."
Ye Wanqing was a little speechless about Xiao Buyi's habit of watching the show. This matter is indeed easy to cause controversy. It is a troublesome matter, but it will be even more troublesome when evil gods are involved.
He could understand, but he remembered the dead villagers he saw just now, because they didn't worship the evil gods, they would be cursed to go to hell after death.
They entered the Immortal Gate and practiced to improve their cultivation base, originally to protect the people of Kyushu and to be able to resist the ghost clan.
If he said this now, Bao Buqi would be ridiculed.
Ye Wanqing went back with a heavy heart, the three of them went back, and the other elders and disciples had also returned.
"Xuan'er, stay here, don't run around, I'm going to discuss this matter with the elders."
Ye Wanqing obediently did not run around, he noticed that Xiao Buyi went to Yan Shi's side, Yan Shi's face was very dark, as if his puppet was stained with something.
There was something surging in the dark environment, Ye Wanqing could see clearly, it was ghost writings stuck to Yan Shi's puppet.
Xiao Buyi was helping Yan Shi deal with it, Shen Que also recognized it, and those ghost texts disappeared after a while.
"Junior Brother, come here and recognize him. Find out what this means."
Ye Wanqing went to Xiao Buyi's side to take a look, and it was similar to what he saw on the villagers' corpses, only a few words were added.
"A criminal who disobeys will enter Shura Hell."
Ye Wanqing became a little curious, "What did you do? This should be a new curse added by the mountain god, aimed specifically at you."
But fortunately, the ghost text is on the puppet, not on Yan Shi.
Shen Que: "I was still talking about him on the way, telling him not to go to those houses with goat totems. He didn't go by himself, put the puppet in, and then came back with something on the puppet, and he wanted to cut us several times."
Yan Shi's eyebrows and eyes were a little gloomy, he had been repairing his precious puppet, and it seemed that he wanted to kill Ning Si.
The disciples on their side were all guessing what the elder's side would decide. Ye Wanqing moved closer to the elder's side. He didn't know what they were talking about. They were separated by the barrier, so he couldn't hear them.
Xiao Buyi was still comforting Yan Shi, "Calm down, people say they are evil gods, you will die if you move your fingers like this."
Shen Que agreed: "Yeah, what Xiao Buyi said is right, don't be impulsive, this is their territory, we must be thankful for our smooth going out."
A burst of dust came towards us, the elders over there discussed for a while, and finally reached an agreement, one of the elders left with their disciples first, and the remaining elders stayed to deal with the evil god Ning Si.
"This matter needs to be notified to the elders. It is inconvenient to travel at night. You can leave tomorrow morning."
They were divided into two groups to watch the night, Ye Wanqing and Xiao Buyi stayed on the night together, the torches were brightly lit in the night, as far as the eye could see, they were both scarlet in the depths of the forest from time to time.
Xiao Buyi picked a Bodhisattva leaf from nowhere, put it on the Bodhisattva leaf, and blew a tune for him.
"Junior brother, do you think we can get out of here smoothly?"
The song was long, and Ye Wanqing almost fell asleep when he heard it. He blinked, looked at Xiao Buyi, and had to admit that some people are born without talent in certain aspects.
For example, he draws pictures, for example, Xiao Yiyi plays music.
"How do I know that."
Xiao Buyi tilted his head slightly, looked at him and laughed, "You... are still as boring as before."
Ye Wanqing held the sword and did not speak. He touched the outer flame of the edge of the torch with his fingertips, touched it with a little distance, his fingers were very hot, and he slowly withdrew his hand.
"Junior brother, I used to tell fortunes in Jiannan Villa, do you still remember?"
Ye Wanqing nodded, he still remembered that Xiao Buyi lied to him for money.
"Don't tell me, I have done a lot of fortune-telling for people, and my intuition has become very good. I have a hunch that it may not be easy for us to go out this time."
"Good junior, go to your master if you have something to do, follow him and don't get lost."
Xiao Buyi seemed to say it casually, and got up after finishing speaking, "It's time, I'll call the disciple on duty."
Ye Wanqing returned to the camp, without Xiao Buyi's reminder, the way ahead was clearly laid out for them.
The first half of the night was considered peaceful, but something happened in the second half of the night. With the scream of a disciple, the ever-burning candle was lit, and Ye Wanqing woke up immediately, opened the tent and went out.
The yellow sand rolled towards the sky outside, as if it could drown them at any time, they all came out of the tent, and the elder sent them a message.
"You can't stay here anymore, you guys leave here quickly and go to the red leaf forest... there is a temple there, we will meet there later."
Ye Wanqing took a mouthful of sand, and the rough smell of dust spread between his lips and teeth. He felt that the elder's reminder was obviously too late, and several disciples had already been sucked into the depths of the yellow sand.
This is a common sight outside the Great Wall, but at this time it is not a natural occurrence, but man-made.
"Master—"
Ye Wanqing tried to find Jun Chi's figure, but he didn't see Jun Chi. The evil spirit appeared at night, and his sword light appeared. Many disciples were busy solving the evil spirit while preventing them from being swept away by the yellow sand.
The ground was sinking rapidly, Ye Wanqing was in a bad mood, the crimson sword energy sliced the evil spirit into ashes, the yellow sand swept him all over, and when he was about to be buried by the yellow sand, one hand grabbed him.
Ye Wanqing saw a cold mask, he was held by Jun Chi's wrist, and the next moment, Huang Sha involved Jun Chi.
He ate a mouth full of sand, coughed several times, and his face was also scratched by the sand.The hand holding him quickly pulled him into his arms.
Jun Chi hugged him and helped him block the sand, the surroundings were plunged into darkness, the whistling wind could be heard in his ears, and the air gradually became damp and sticky.
The two of them seemed to have fallen from a high place. Ye Wanqing was in Jun Chi's arms when he fell, and Jun Chi also acted as a pad for him when he fell.
There was a sound on the ground, Jun Chi let out a muffled snort, and Ye Wanqing immediately got up from Jun Chi's body.
"Master, are you okay?"
Ye Wanqing's lip line was tense, he was pressing Junchi just now, presumably Junchi fell hard, he heard the sound of bones breaking just now.
"It's okay." Jun Chi got up, his face was pale, he coughed twice, and then a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his lips.
Ye Wanqing: "..."
Is this all right?He thought about it, maybe Junchi had self-respect in front of him, so he found a handkerchief from himself and handed it to Junchi.
"Master, where have we been dragged?"
Ye Wanqing looked around, it seemed to be an underground palace, with a stone wall on the top and many naturally formed stone pillars around.
Jun Chi wiped off the blood with his handkerchief, looked around, paused, and said, "Ningsi originally drowned us, but it seems that it came here by mistake... I don't know where it is."
"I heard that there were ancient countries on the border. They were ancient countries outside the Great Wall, but they disappeared out of thin air. It seems that they were affected by the yellow sand terrain."
Jun Chi hummed and asked him, "Is this what Xuan'er saw in the classics?"
"Yeah, it's a history of thousands of years ago. I don't know if it's true or not."
Seeing Jun Chi's pale face, Ye Wanqing couldn't help asking, "Master, your body, should we find a place to rest first?"
He brought it up, but Jun Chi shook his head and said to him, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we don't know the situation here yet."
The stone cave extends in all directions, Ye Wanqing glanced at the top again, they just fell from the top, I don't know where the mechanism was triggered.
The two of them walked forward, and there was a dark stone road in front of them. The stone road became narrower and narrower. Ye Wanqing touched Jun Chi's fingers, and Jun Chi's fingers were very cold.
When he ran into Jun Chi, Jun Chi deliberately avoided him, not letting him touch him, so he didn't move.
Until Jun Chi stopped and pressed his hand, he was about to say something, but Jun Chi pressed his fingertips against his lips.
The author has something to say:
Not finished, continue tomorrow.
