Taiping Inn

According to Zhou Aniu, the Zhoujia Village where he lives hid in the three non-regard places in Beimang Mountain to avoid the war. The villagers are all the same clan. Although the land was difficult to clear and lived in poverty, they were no more bandits and harsh taxes. , but it is not in conflict with the world, and contacts with the outside world means sending people to Beimang County every month to exchange for some salt, tea, cloth and other things.

Zhou Aniu is an ordinary villager in Zhoujia Village. He rests at sunrise every day, until one day he met a rabbit that popped out of nowhere while plowing the land, wanting to eat some meat. So he chased the rabbit and came all the way to a deserted mountain. Zhou Aniu didn't care at that time. After all, there were thirty-two peaks of Beim Mountain, such barren mountains and lands everywhere, but at this time, The rabbit suddenly disappeared. Zhou Aniu, who was unwilling to go so many times in vain, so he searched around him. As a result, he accidentally stepped on a soft land and fell into a corridor. middle.

It was strange to say that shortly after he fell into the corridor, the originally pitch-black corridor instantly lit up the eternal lights, like a fire dragon.

Next, he followed the corridor and walked to the end. There were two large doors, not ordinary stone doors, but bronze. He was not a tomb robber, so he was naturally helpless about such things. Then he went to the other end of the corridor and found that it was a dead end, blocked by the soil, and even tree roots and other objects could be seen.

In the end, he had to follow the same path. Fortunately, the place where he fell was not high, just the height of the ordinary roof. He piled up the collapsed soil in one place, then stepped on the soil and barely climbed out. However, shortly after he returned to the village, this black sore began to develop on his body. Not only his face and neck, but also the places under his clothes that were not visible, all of which were covered with sores. Only then did he realize that the matter was Unusually, there is no doctor in the village, so he wanted to find a doctor outside to seek medical treatment. Unexpectedly, he just walked out of the village and felt dizzy and nauseous, weak all over, and fell on the side of the road.

After hearing Zhou Aniu's words, Li Xuandu and Nan Kezi looked at each other, and they knew it.

The Zhoujia Village mentioned by Zhou Aniu is the place where the smoke they saw before was rising, because they were walking from north to south, and the village was located directly west and was not on their necessary path. It is reasonable that Zhou Aniu walked from west to northeast, which just crossed with their necessary path.

The reason why Zhou Aniu has evil spirits surrounding him is easy to explain. It is probably because of the tomb. And according to Zhou Aniu's account, although the tomb has not been fully opened at this time, it has already seen a clue. Logically speaking, it is impossible to be buried so shallowly, but the distance between the place where Zhou Aniu fell and the corridor ground was only more than one person high. Then Nan Kezi had a bold guess that this tomb was actually It is rising by itself, rising from the depths of the ground, and when the tomb completely breaks out of the ground, it is the day when the Taiyin corpse is born.

This rise, unlike the pointing of acupoints and building tombs with experts, will naturally affect and destroy the surrounding earth veins and earth energy, and may even turn a Feng Shui mansion into a bad place, and the spiritual energy will turn into evil energy, and a strange phenomenon will appear in heaven. Only experts from both good and evil will have a sense of response and can calculate the message that the Taiyin corpse is about to be born.

Now Nan Kezi and Li Xuan are about to find the place where Taiyin corpse is born, so they have to start from Zhou Aniu. Fortunately, after Nan Kezi fed him a pill, he temporarily suppressed the remaining poison of evil energy. , Zhou Aniu respected Nan Kezi as a god. When Nan Kezi proposed to go and see the tomb to avoid harming people more, Zhou Aniu showed a little fear, but still agreed.

However, Nan Kezi also knew in his heart that the "Jiuyang Pill" he gave me was just a mouthful of yang energy in Zhou Aniu's body, so that he temporarily suppressed the evil energy in his body, and waited for the effect of the elixir to reach the effect of the pill After all, the evil spirit will retaliate immediately, but there is no way. If it weren't for this "Jiuyang Pill", Zhou Aniu would die now. With the "Jiuyang Pill", he would be able to live more. In two or three days, the cure was not just that there was no, but that the cost was too expensive and far from being affordable by ordinary people. Even Nan Kezi did not have this wealth and had to use the financial resources of the sect.

After deciding to get off, Nan Kezi felt a little embarrassed because the essence of Taoism is to use falsehood as real, so there is a saying in Taoism: "It is as light as mustard seeds to carry ordinary people to escape from the world." Although it is said that This statement is a bit exaggerated, but it is reasonable. At the same time, Buddhism also says: "The flesh and blood are as heavy as mountains." Therefore, many techniques are difficult to have effect on mortals, just like the mysterious "Yin and Yang Gate" technique, ordinary people with no cultivation. It is impossible to pass at all. If you force it, you will lose most of your life even if you don’t die. This is the case at this time. If you let him fly alone, it will not be difficult. But if you bring another ordinary person, it will be as difficult as climbing to heaven. Now.

Similarly, many evil ghosts can drive the sky, and can call the wind and rain, and change the sky, but they just can't move their remains. Once they are taken away, they are a huge handle.

On the contrary, the martial artist has no restrictions on this aspect. The greater the strength he has, the greater the things he has. Although there is no such tricks as the "Yin and Yang Gate", there are no many restrictions. As the saying goes, there are gains and losses. This is also the difference between martial artists and alchemists. There are advantages and disadvantages.

Li Xuandu saw Nan Kezi's embarrassment and took the initiative to speak, "I can only take him with me, but I can't walk in the air and I can only run on the ground."

"That's enough, that's enough." Nan Kezi stroked his goatee and said, "As the saying goes, 'Mountains are as light as mustard seeds, but it's hard to take mortals away from the mortal world.' For example, those evil spirits can only pull mortals on the ground with the wind, and can't take them into the air. I can do this, but it's hard to see. I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Li."

These words were said to Zhou Aniu. After all, Li Xuandu was a fellow Taoist, so how could he not understand these principles? Zhou Aniu was just an ordinary person, so he didn't understand these. Nan Kezi had just established the identity of an old immortal in front of him, so it was not easy to break it.

Zhou Aniu was startled and had some doubts in his heart, but when he saw the old immortal stomped his feet lightly and jumped, he actually flew into the air, hanging without falling, and he couldn't help but have a deeper respect for the old immortal.

As for why Nan Kezi didn't use this "wind control technique" when fighting against the enemy before, but used the "armored horse", it's like riding a horse. Being able to ride a horse is one thing, and being able to bend a bow and shoot an arrow on horseback is another. Similarly, Nan Kezi's ability to control the wind is one thing, and being able to fight with others while controlling the wind is another thing. Generally, only after reaching the heavenly realm can one truly control the air at will, so when fighting with others, Nan Kezi honestly fights on the ground.

Before Zhou Aniu finished sighing at the old immortal's magical means, he felt a hand on his shoulder. Before he could react, his eyes were blurred. When he reacted again, he found that he was being led by the quiet Mr. Li to walk on the crowns of towering trees. Just by gently leveraging on the branches that seemed to break if stepped on, he could jump a very long distance, making his ears full of wind sounds, and the direction he went was exactly the direction of Zhoujia Village.

He reluctantly looked back and saw the old immortal flying in the sky not far behind them, and he was more awed.

At this moment, Li Xuandu asked: "Where is the tomb you mentioned in your village?"

Zhou Aniu hurriedly turned around and replied: "Probably in the northwest direction."

Before Li Xuandu could speak, Nan Kezi, who was just above their heads, took out a compass from his bag, adjusted the direction, and said: "There is indeed yin energy growing in the northwest direction, it should be correct."

Li Xuandu paused suddenly and stepped on a relatively thick branch. Just when Zhou Aniu was a little confused, he saw Li Xuandu exerting force with his feet and directly breaking the branch. With the help of the recoil force, he took Zhou Aniu and jumped suddenly, sweeping nearly a hundred feet.
