I have a long pupil

Chapter 143

"Master Immortal, this is Duliang Mountain."

In the dense fog, Zheng Yongxiang took a few steps forward and pulled away the vines beside the mountain road with his hands, revealing a stone niche.

Zhang Biao jumped off his horse, looked up, and saw that the stone niche was old and entangled with vines, it was already dilapidated.

This kind of stone niches, which are common along mountain roads in various parts of Kyushu, are used to enshrine mountain gods. Those who enter the mountains usually offer incense to bless the journey.

Of course, it's useless.

Just like many folk customs, they are all customs handed down from ancient times, but there are niches but no gods, no matter how pious, they will not be protected.

Zheng Yongxiang shook his head and said: "This is Liangshan Mountain Road, which originally led to Lushan City. The terrain there is flat, and it is an important place for grain production in Huaizhou. The Taoist Cui that the immortal master is looking for is also there."

"The terrain of Liangshan is steep and there are many wild animals. There are often tigers and leopards attacking people. In Moyang City, the hunters often go hunting."

"Before the fog disaster came, there were many strange things happening in the mountains. Passing-by merchants often disappeared inexplicably, leaving only gift goods. Later, the noise became more and more serious. Even the hunters who entered the mountain did not return."

"By the way, Daoist Xu Yuan has been here before."

"How about it?"

"The Taoist priest seems to have been injured, and he didn't say anything evil inside. He just warned me not to approach it. Afterwards, going to and from Lushan City will take hundreds of miles of mountain roads."

"Oh, Xu Yuan was also injured?"

When Zhang Biao heard this, his eyes became serious.

Although Xu Yuan only has the second rank, he is the orthodox Taoist sect after all, the inheritance has not been lost, and he still has many magic tools.

It is not easy to make it helpless.

Thinking of this, he said, "Since that's the case, don't follow, I'll go in first."

"Yes, sir, we will wait here."

Zheng Yongxiang nodded quickly.

Following Zhang Biao several times to slay demons, he knew that his group of people could at most do some chores, and following them into the mountains would become a drag instead.

Zhang Biao didn't talk nonsense. In the eyes of everyone, he strode into the mountain road and quickly disappeared in the thick fog...

Before Zheng Yongxiang could heave a sigh of relief, there was the sound of horseshoes in the distance, and soon a person rode his horse through the fog.

It was Lingchong, a Taoist priest in Xuandu.

Zheng Yongxiang naturally knew it, and hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands, "I have met Taoist Lingchong, you..."

Without waiting for him to ask, Lingchong got off his horse and asked anxiously, "Where's fellow Taoist Tai Sui?"

"Just went up the mountain..."

"Oops, it's a step late."

Without any nonsense, Ling Chong also rushed into the fog quickly, leaving everyone looking at each other...

………………

In the dense fog, Zhang Biao moved forward rapidly.

The mountain road is steep, no one walks in a short time, it has been covered by weeds, no one is around, it looks barren.

The mountain roads here are inherently difficult, many areas are close to the cliffs, and with the thick fog covering their eyes, ordinary people will fall off the cliffs and die if they are not careful.

Zhang Biao was naturally fearless. Relying on the invisible hook and lock, he shuttled between the dense forest and the cliff, and soon reached the top of the mountain.

Climbing high and looking far, you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.

Soon, he frowned.

There's something wrong with this place.

Not only is there no ghostly atmosphere, but it is full of greenery and vitality, and there are birds and beasts running in the forest.

Everything seemed too peaceful.

Zhang Biao was puzzled, but he was not in a hurry. He sat cross-legged on the mountain peak, turned on the Nuo face, and suddenly entered the spirit world.

Sure enough, there was another scene in the spirit world.

Generally speaking, the topography of the spirit world has many connections with the present world, like a photo that is constantly reflected and corrupted.

Here, however, the terrain is quite different.

The mountains collapsed in large areas, like broken pus and blood clots, desolate and desolate, full of mold.

Zhang Biao's pupils shrank, and he stood up suddenly.

The entire mountain in front collapsed inward, and the surrounding area was covered with ravines, showing the faint palm prints that were ten feet wide.

There has been a war here!

What kind of cultivation base can cause such damage?

Zhang Biao quickly activated the eyes of spiritual vision.

It's a pity, maybe the remaining breath on it has disappeared, and the eyes of spiritual vision only reminded that it was the destroyed spiritual mountain range.

Zhang Biao inexplicably remembered what he saw in the abyss of Yanshan Mountain.

There is also a weirdness there, which can make Minghuohua exist independently, and can also grow the precious medicine Sanming Dihuozhi.

Zhang Biao's heart moved, he came to the edge of the cliff and looked down.

Sure enough, there are still cracks here, as if the entire earth is torn apart, and rivers composed of underworld fire can also be seen.

Here in Huaizhou,

Absolutely no small secret!

Zhang Biao was curious and looked around.

With the improvement of Taoism, he has been able to last longer in the spirit world. With Nuo Mian and Phoenix Fire, it is not a problem to stay for ten and a half months.

The only trouble is the physical body.

After all, it is an ordinary person, if you don't eat for several days, even if you don't starve to death, it will hurt the foundation of the five internal organs.

Traveling through the spirit world is faster.

Not long after, Zhang Biao traveled all over Duliangshan, and found a strange place.

It was a deep canyon pit, in a regular circular shape, filled with dead and twisted dead trees, densely packed, very scary.

In the woods, there is an attic roof, and vines are scattered between the bricks and tiles, covered with thick dust.

What is this place…

Zhang Biao frowned slightly, raising his vigilance.

There is also a strange thing in the spirit world, living things like flowers, birds, fish, insects, humans, animals, plants, etc., can't be reflected, so it looks desolate.

As for things like attic buildings, ordinary things will continue to appear and decay, and only special existence can be preserved.

Are these dead trees,

Are they all high-end items?

Without further ado, Zhang Biao activated the eyes of spiritual vision.

Snake Banyan (Yellow Grade [-])
1. The tree species born in the spiritual world has a mysterious origin, breeds in evil places, absorbs poisonous mist and evil spirits to survive, and has withered.

2. This tree can be used to prepare Gu poison.

3. There are traces of witchcraft transformation...

4. When a dead tree is frightened, it will explode. The powder is highly poisonous and can act on the soul, which is extremely dangerous...

What is this thing?
Seeing this, Zhang Biao suddenly had a headache.

This thing is also recorded in the Jiangliang inheritance. It is a material for preparing Gu poison, which is often used to deal with evil and evil.

To put it simply, this thing is similar to the spark of the underworld. It is a part of the ecosystem of the spirit world. For example, in ghost places like the Bone Camp, the ghouls will still exist after they dissipate, but they will gradually grow snakes and absorb evil spirits, making the Jedi finally die. dissipate.

Without these special plants, the spirit world would have spread all over evil places, with countless ghosts, like hell.

At this moment, Zhang Biao frowned and turned around.

I saw a puff of smoke gradually rising from the open space in the distance, and it turned into a handsome Taoist, with a faint yellow light shining on the token around his waist.

Lingchong (Yellow Level [-])
1. The disciples from Xuandu Temple, receive the mission of the master to protect the Huaizhou caravan.

2. The inheritor of the ancient bloodline, who was cultivated by the Xuandu Temple since childhood, has a benevolent nature and extraordinary martial arts. He practiced the "Eight Scenery Classics", awakened his innate supernatural powers: Yushui, and can use divine arts: talismans and sacrificial altars.

3. All beings are suffering, but please have a clear conscience...

A Taoist priest from Xuandu Temple?

Zhang Biao frowned slightly, but did not hide it.

He could tell that the young Taoist could step into the spirit world because of the magic weapon around his waist to protect him, but he didn't have the special vision of the Nuo Mian Jiangliang, so he didn't see him a hundred meters away, and his face was full of anxiety. Look around.

But Xuandu sees the orthodox Xuanmen, so how could he have no means.

I saw the Taoist priest take out a yellow talisman from his bosom, hold it in his hand, and meditate on the formula.

puff!
The yellow talisman ignited spontaneously, and a cloud of blue smoke swirled around his head. The Taoist priest immediately saw Zhang Biao in his sight.

"But Daoist friend Tai Sui."

Lingchong came striding over, saluted, and said anxiously: "Fellow Daoist, don't go into that place."

Then, he introduced himself again.

This young Taoist named Lingchong has no false enthusiasm and speaks neither humble nor overbearing, which makes Zhang Biao very fond of him.

He had also met a few disciples of the sect, but this Taoist named Lingchong was still somewhat human.

Zhang Biao arched his hands, "Thank you for reminding me that I was entrusted to kill the evil spirits in all directions, and there must be an explanation. What evil things are hidden there?"

Lingchong hesitated for a moment, "Why don't fellow daoists leave the spirit world first, and we will meet up here, and fellow daoists will know at a glance."

"Alright!"

Zhang Biao nodded slightly, and the bloody phoenix fire lingered all over his body, and disappeared in an instant.

Ling Chong stared in a daze for a while, and murmured: "This Tai Sui Taoist friend, isn't Fang Xiangzong's inheritance? How can there be such a method?"

"That divine fire is quite powerful..."

Since Zhang Biao absorbed the blood spirit root, all kinds of opportunities gathered, and the three suns true fire turned into Phoenix fire, so he no longer concealed it.

Anyway, relying on this thing, no one else would guess that he still bears the inheritance of Xuanyangzong.

Even if he recognized the Phoenix Fire, he could still be said to be born with supernatural powers.

.........

On the mountain, Zhang Biao suddenly opened his eyes, jumped, and the invisible hook shot out, leading him to shuttle between the mountains, and soon arrived at that weird place.

Sure enough, Ling Chong was already waiting there.

However, Zhang Biao frowned and his eyes were full of doubts.

In the present world, the original deep pit has disappeared, replaced by a towering hill with dense jungle.

"This……"

Zhang Biao didn't care about talking to Lingchong, turned left and right a few times, suddenly came to the foot of the hill, and kicked away the scattered boulders.

The roots of the trees are bare, and the soil is yellow and white.

"Chalk...is this an ancient tomb?"

Zhang Biao was stunned.

Chalk is lime, which is moisture-proof and anti-corrosion. It is often used to seal burials. "If the ground shows chalk, there must be a big tomb" is a mantra often said by many local monks.

Looking at the mountain again, it is obviously in the shape of a square pyramid, but due to the age, wind erosion and vegetation cover, it has become an irregular shape.

"That's right, it's the ancient tomb of the Great Yan Dynasty."

Ling Chong shook his head and smiled wryly: "Uncle Xu Yuan has already found out about Duliang Mountain. There was a master here who sealed a powerful evil thing. I don't know what it is."

"For thousands of years, tomb thieves have often visited the tomb, and they have dug countless holes in the mountain, which has broken the seal. After the spiritual energy is revived, the things inside are haunted. People and hunters in the past were deceived, entered the tomb, and never came out again."

"Senior brother Xu Yuan once went in to investigate, but halfway through, he was poisoned by Gu, so he had to retreat and told the people not to approach."

Zhang Biao frowned when he heard this, "Is it so unclear, you have to find out what it is."

"Not far from the mountain is Moyang City. In case of birth, there must be a way to deal with it."

Embarrassment appeared in Lingchong's eyes, "Fellow Daoist Tai Sui doesn't know something... Forget it, it's really inappropriate to keep this place. It just so happens that a fellow Daoist will help. If I find out the cause and effect, I'll write to ask the elders in the sect to help."

When Zhang Biao saw it, he knew what was going on.

Most likely, after Xu Yuan came here once, he found it difficult to deal with, so he didn't bother to cause trouble. Anyway, he didn't care much about the life and death of ordinary people.

Thinking of this, Zhang Biao stopped talking nonsense.

In Yujing City, he lacked morality, even had difficulty protecting himself, coupled with the entanglement of various forces, he could only remind him secretly.

Now that his state of mind has increased greatly, he naturally wouldn't just stand by and ask, "Do you know the origin of this tomb?"

Lingchong nodded and said: "Old affairs of the Yan Dynasty, I still have some historical records in our sect. I went back to the mountain before, but I also found some things."

"A princess of Dayan was buried here, and she was once a famous figure..."
