The God and Buddha are actually me

"Just...what were those?"

Zhang Jiuyang clenched the sword in his hand and looked a little solemn.

We haven't arrived at Chenjia Village yet, but we just entered this deep mountain, and we encountered such a strange thing.

"It's a mandrill."

Yue Ling sheathed the sword, and the golden pupils gradually turned back to black. The huge sense of oppression also disappeared, but there was still a residual power that was hard to ignore.

Lao Gao had rich experience and explained to Zhang Jiuyang: "The so-called mandrill, also known as mountain ghost, has a human face and a monkey body, one leg, and the power to tear tigers and leopards alive. They often live in the mountains."

"Actually, mandrills are not that scary. According to the records in our Qintian Prison, they have a certain degree of intelligence. Male mandrills like to collect money, while females like to smear themselves with makeup."

"So before going into the mountains, you can prepare money and rouge. If you encounter a male mandrill, call him a monkey and throw money. If you meet a female, call him a monkey and throw rouge. You will be safe."

Hearing this, Zhang Jiuyang thought of some books about strange things he had read in his previous life. It seemed that there were similar records in "Guang Yi Ji".

Even in some places in Lingnan, mandrills will farm with people. People provide land and seeds, and mandrills are responsible for all the labor, and finally share half of the harvest.

I don’t want anything less, and I don’t want anything more. I have a very upright temperament.

Luo Ping said solemnly: "But the mandrills here are completely different. They are very aggressive and seem to be under some kind of control."

"It's evil spirit."

Yue Ling slowly raised his eyes, the vertical lines between his eyebrows were filled with light. Through the thick mountain fog, he seemed to see the village shrouded in evil aura.

"The abyss of evil is evil. Whenever evil spirits of the evil level cause trouble, evil spirits will breed within dozens of miles, and all kinds of evil will be born. These mandrills should be affected by the evil spirits."

Her voice was calm and she said: "As long as the source of the evil spirits is cut off, they will naturally recover. Let's go, don't waste time."

Everyone continued to move forward.

But not long after walking, Yue Ling stopped again.

Only then did Zhang Jiuyang see that there was a deep pool in front of him, but it was shrouded in thick mountain fog. If he was not careful, he would fall into the pool.

There was thick moss floating on the water in the pool, and there were also faint pieces of animal bones. It exuded a faint fishy smell, and it looked like old stagnant water.

"Brother Ninth, something is watching us down here!"

Ah Li popped up, holding two swords ready to try.

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes narrowed, everything here is really weird, there is even some kind of monster hidden in a deep pool!

"Boss, do you want to take a detour?"

Lao Gao asked.

Yue Ling shook his head and said: "This thing has become a little popular. If we don't kill it, how can we keep it and let it continue to cause chaos?"

Unlike the mandrill that was bewitched by the evil spirit, the things underwater had become monsters and seemed to have eaten many people. Her clairvoyance saw that there were many human corpses in the mud underwater.

"Sister Ming Wang, let me come!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Ah Li arched her little head and was about to jump into the water. Zhang Jiuyang was so frightened that he quickly grabbed her pigtails. Even so, the little girl kept arching her body.

After getting the sword, she was eager to prove herself.

Yue Ling didn't say anything, just glanced at her lightly, showing no anger or authority.

Little Ali immediately calmed down and returned to the Yin Doll obediently.

One thing brings down another thing.

"General Yue, how do you plan to get rid of——"

Plop!

Before Zhang Jiuyang finished speaking, she jumped into the pool without hesitation. Because she was wearing heavy armor, her figure quickly sank and disappeared.

The splashing water wet Zhang Jiuyang's trousers.

His face twitched and he asked: "Do you, your father-in-law, act so... decisively?"

Lao Gao patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Just get used to it."

Luo Ping said with admiration and pride: "We are lucky to be able to follow someone like Yue Tou."

Other Lingtai Lang usually let their subordinate Si Chen rush to the front. After all, evil spirits have their own magical powers. Even Lingtai Lang would feel confused before they figured it out.

The only exception was Yue Ling. After she joined Qintian Prison, she did not change her style of marching and fighting. She would take the lead in every battle, charge into battle, fight side by side with her subordinates, and share life and death.

She has been criticized many times by superiors, but she always goes her own way and never changes.

This also gave her a huge reputation among all the Si Chens in Qintian Prison. The leader of Tiangang, Ming Wang Yue Ling, there were countless Si Chens who wanted to join her and were proud to work with him.

Wow!

In just a moment, the originally calm water became turbulent, as if there were giant beasts fighting below.

Zhang Jiuyang's eyesight was pretty good, but now through the mountain fog and the turbid water pool, he couldn't see what was going on below, and he was slightly worried.

After a few more breaths, the pool water actually made a gurgling sound, and bubbles kept bubbling on the surface.

Zhang Jiuyang was startled, was this... boiling?

The next moment, the pond water returned to calm.

boom!

A figure emerged from the water. Her long hair, which had been tied up, was loose. Her dark hair and cold eyes were as cold as frost. She was holding the snake's head in one hand and the snake's tail in the other.

Wow!

She threw the nearly three-foot-long headless python onto the shore, and drops of water mixed with demon blood dripped from the armor.

Zhang Jiuyang noticed that the python's head had been torn off by a human being, and there were many burnt marks on the wound.

How violent!

Yue Ling's body was constantly steaming, evaporating the water droplets into mist. After a while, her body was as clean as before, and even her hair became soft and dry.

She tied her hair neatly, pulled out the Dragon Bird Knife, and skillfully skinned and cut the python.

"It's just right to use it as dry food."

...

An hour later, everyone finally arrived at the destination of this operation, Chenjia Village.

Strangely, the mountain fog became smaller as they approached the village, and from a distance, they could vaguely see a piece of broken walls and ruins.

The ground crack razed this peaceful village to the ground, and more than 300 people were buried alive, without any escape.

The mountain fog dissipated, and everyone was about to enter the village, but found that their clothes were always hooked by the surrounding branches. On some of the branches, there were torn strips of cloth hanging, not from their bodies.

"Are these trees also spirits?"

Zhang Jiuyang was secretly alert.

Yue Ling shook her head and said, "They are kindly blocking us from entering Chenjia Village. I think they have also stopped other people, but unfortunately they failed."

Lao Gao was surprised when he heard this: "If it's not a tree spirit, could it be the mountain god?"

Yue Ling nodded and said coldly: "No wonder Blind Lin was able to bury the entire Chenjia Village alive. I think he must have used some evil method to influence the mountain god here."

Luo Ping explained to Zhang Jiuyang in a low voice.

It turns out that if some mountains have long-term spiritual energy, feng shui nourishment, and human popularity to nurture that little spiritual light, it is possible to give birth to some kind of consciousness in the dark, which is called the mountain god.

The magic power of the mountain god varies, mainly depending on the time of birth and the size of the mountain.

Generally speaking, the mountain god and the local people are mutually beneficial, and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory will not care. Even if there are outstanding ones, the court will confer them as gods.

It is impossible for the mountain god not to know about such a sudden crack in the ground and burying a village alive.

There is only one explanation, that is, He was unable to stop it, and even had to become an accomplice of Blind Lin, and launched the field rift.

"Thank you for your kindness, I am Yue Ling, Lingtai Lang of the Imperial Observatory, and I am here to investigate the case thoroughly. Please don't stop me, Mountain God!"

Yue Ling clasped his fists and said loudly.

This is called courtesy before force.

Miraculously, after she said this, everyone was no longer hung by branches and successfully entered Chenjia Village.
