Folk custom: At the beginning of the wedding, the bride takes off her painted skin

Chapter 139 Leaving, the dying Gu sect believers [two-in-one]

Li Daoxuan always likes to tell the truth, before he uses his dead eyes to see the truth.

He really wanted to come.

And I want to do it hard!

But after seeing the evil spirit, Li Daoxuan lost his mind... He only felt pure physical discomfort.

So he immediately removed the Dead Eye.

Sometimes even though you know that something is an illusion, this illusion... is often more comfortable.

At the same time that the scene in front of him was restored, Li Daoxuan had already thrown out the coffin nails in his hand.

He didn't know how the female ghost saw through his [Ta Zaoqing], but since the female ghost had discovered it, he had to leave her alone and take action immediately!

Seeing the hand that was about to put the nail in the coffin, the female ghost disappeared just like last time.

Only one embroidered shoe was left in Huang Dayou's arms.

After all, he couldn't see the truth anymore. When the embroidered shoes fell, he also got off the dirty bed and fell to the ground, twitching all over his body.

There is a lot of air coming out and little air coming in. At the same time, foam is constantly spitting out from the corners of the mouth.

Li Dao

This time, the female ghost did not go far, but simply used her life-saving method to arrive not far behind Li Daoxuan.

Finally put on clothes.

"You are very strong, but we advise you to leave this matter alone...if you don't get into troubled waters, you can live longer."

The female ghost spoke and became much more normal, no longer as charming as she was at the beginning.

"how?"

Li Daoxuan heard something else from her words.

"Do you think we have nothing to do, so we will come here to torment the gods of the mountains, and come to this broken mountain village instead of leaving a good place?"

A place where even ghosts dislike it means it is really not that good.

"You guys...you and that knocker are together. Your spirituality is relatively intact, and the Mountain Tiger God also decontaminated it."

"It's even said that...the two troubles in this place are actually with you?"

Li Daoxuan speculated based on some existing information.

Just looking at the intact female ghost, seeing her plump figure and the round figure behind her, Li Daoxuan felt a little distraught.

I want to bully myself.

He had no choice but to use his dead eyes again to see the female ghost's true form.

Only seeing that body that made people almost want to vomit could dispel the audacity in Li Daoxuan's heart.

The female ghost also saw Li Daoxuan's methods and rolled her eyes.

"It's okay if you want to know, but you have to leave after you find out... We will also let you go, so don't try to mess with us."

Li Daoxuan hesitated for a moment and suddenly said: "I'm not afraid of death, what about you?"

"you!"

The female ghost looked a little angry, so she could only say in a deep voice: "The witch standing behind us is the Holy Witch City. Do you want to continue listening?"

"Ah!"

The expression on Li Daoxuan's face did not change, but when he heard this answer, he was really surprised.

When he was still in Huaiyin Mountain, he had already learned a little bit of the truth from the letter left by Li Peishan.

A large part of the reason why there are so many evil spirits in Divine Witch City is caused by Divine Witch City itself.

And those who handle these matters for the Lord of Divine Witch City are the so-called witch envoys.

They feed and allow these evil spirits to cause trouble everywhere.

Now, Li Daoxuan actually learned about this matter again in Nanshan Village in the Ghost Mountain Mountains.

But what do they want to do in this barren mountain and wilderness... Li Daoxuan suddenly said: "Is your target the Mountain Tiger God?"

At this moment, another faint voice sounded from the corner.

"Li Daoxuan, are you sure you want to know so much? It's still too late to leave now. If you know too much... you won't be able to leave."

Crouching in the corner was a black shadow.

Needless to say, Li Daoxuan also knew that he was the remaining knocker.

Only what is squatting in the corner is its true body.

"You know me from that troubled mouth?"

"It does not matter."

"So, the worry turmoil also has a real body and can talk?"

Li Daoxuan has never heard of this matter, but the knocker can actually get his own information from Fanzhuo, which shows that Fanzhuo is actually able to communicate consciously.

The black shadow in the corner shook his head, "No, this is because I have been with this trouble for a long time, so I can see a little bit of what it has experienced."

"No wonder."

The matter was not beyond Li Daoxuan's understanding.

"She's right, you go. I don't want to waste any more time with you, so don't delay us."

The knocker was not asking, but stating.

In other words, it did not give Li Daoxuan a chance to choose.

Li Daoxuan looked a little entangled and hesitant.

If Fang Jie were here, he would definitely be able to tell that Li Daoxuan was about to start acting again.

The knocker continued: "Staying here will only hurt both sides, it's not worth it, and if you offend us, you will offend the wizard... If you provoke the wizard in the Divine Witch City, you should be able to understand the consequences."

"That's okay..." Li Daoxuan let out a long breath, as if he had finally made up his mind.

"You made the right decision."

The knocker's voice also softened a lot. Obviously, Li Daoxuan put great pressure on him.

"It's just..." Li Daoxuan frowned.

"Just what?"

The knocker's voice deepened again, and the black mist that had been gathered around his body began to overflow again, apparently looking a little bit bully.

Li Daoxuan seemed not to notice.

"I just went to Shanshui City to pick up something, and I left immediately after picking it up, so I have to go back soon. When do you have to leave? I'm afraid that when I go back, I will bump into you again."

"It's okay, we'll just let you pass when the time comes."

The knocker didn't explain much, but Li Daoxuan also heard it.

I'm afraid this matter won't be resolved so quickly.

Thinking about it, when he first came here, the mountain tiger god could still consciously pay for himself to get rid of ghosts.

If it is really completely contaminated, it will be completely controlled by this knocker.

How could such a thing be done?

Even if he could, he wouldn't give himself merit for such a thing.

So judging from this matter, there is still some way to go before they can completely contaminate this mountain tiger god.

In this way, Li Daoxuan felt more relaxed. He didn't know the details of this mountain village before, so he thought he could solve it easily as soon as he came in.

But now it seems that I still have to wait until the seeds of "Defying Domain" are planted in my body before I come back and give it a try.

As for provoking the witch...until he has no strength, whatever the witch says is whatever he says.

Once you have the strength, whatever you say will be what the witch envoy will do!

Li Daoxuan has already seen through this.

"Where can I get out?"

Li Daoxuan asked.

"The temple is the exit." The knocker didn't hide it this time.

"Oh, okay."

Li Daoxuan held the butcher's knife and glanced at the two ghosts who unconsciously surrounded him. "Let those two people go out with me."

When you go out, you can hold hands.

"One is dead."

The female ghost replied.

"Which one?"

"The one on the mountain is dead."

"he died?"

Li Dao

"What, is it weird?"

"It's not surprising, it's not surprising if anyone dies."

Li Daoxuan said, turning around and looking up the mountain, "Let's go, say goodbye!"

After saying that, he used the common skill [Walking Thousands of Miles] again, but in the blink of an eye, the person was already very far away, and there was no chance for these two ghosts to take action.

Seeing his speed, the knocker was also frightened.

But fortunately, he is a reasonable person who knows right from wrong.

Seeing this, the female ghost stretched out and chuckled: "It's good now, no one will bother me anymore."

"You should restrain yourself. You are really going to kill the whole village. That mountain tiger god will definitely wake up without the incense of his followers. But you have missed a big deal..."

The knocker warned.

The female ghost didn't like beating, so she sneered and replied: "Speaking of which, I didn't see you being hesitant when it came to eating people. I even let you eat the grain eater."

"You eat less? That Gu sect believer didn't give it to you."

After the knocker ghost finished speaking, the female ghost was a little stunned and seemed to be in a trance.

"What kind of Gu sect believers?"

"Ok?"

The knocker also realized something was wrong, "The guy who came in with Li Daoxuan on the mountain... didn't you just say that you ate him."

"Have it?"

The female ghost was lost in thought.

……

When Li Daoxuan arrived at the top of the mountain, the temple was still the same, but the statue of the god that had collapsed had somehow returned to its original state. Even the missing part has been added.

Standing on the shrine intact.

"Did the knocker help it recover, or was it the mountain tiger god himself who used his own abilities? But if that's the case, then who broke the missing ear in the first place."

Li Daoxuan thought in his mind, and then tentatively shouted: "Is the Mountain Tiger God here?"

"Li Daoxuan, you have to be true to your word...don't go too far!"

The knocker's voice sounded in the temple again.

And a hint of anger.

"Haha, it turns out you can hear me."

Li Daoxuan laughed and didn't cause any more trouble. After waiting here for a while, Yan Kuan also ran up in a hurry.

Breathing heavily.

"Then go."

After Li Daoxuan finished speaking, the scene in front of him began to change. From the top of the mountain to the top of the mountain, except that the temple was gone, the originally empty top of the mountain became chaotic at this moment.

The trees are lush and the weeds are luxuriant.

"Brother Fang, we are..."

Yan Kuan still couldn't react.

Li Daoxuan was about to speak, but he turned and looked at the bushes on the side. Under the bushes, there was a huge stone.

Slightly abrupt.

Logically speaking, the rocks on this mountain top have been exposed to the sun and rain all year round. Even if they are not covered with moss, there should still be some moss attached to them.

But this stone is surprisingly clean.

"what happened?"

Yan Kuan immediately took out his vulgar weapon, a peach wood sword wrapped around the intestines, and looked at the stone warily.

Li Daoxuan said nothing. The butcher's knife in his hand suddenly grew longer and reached the huge stone.

"Are you coming out on your own, or should I ask you to come out?"

As soon as these words came out, the main thing was the pig-killing knife hanging on the boulder, with the blade facing downwards, like a beheading knife.

The originally motionless boulder suddenly moved under the threatening butcher's knife.

Immediately afterwards, the petrification on his body faded away, turning into a prostrate human form.

Whether it was because he was frightened or because he had been kneeling for too long, his legs softened and the man collapsed directly to the ground.

"It's really you."

Li Daoxuan retracted the butcher's knife in his hand, "Didn't that female ghost say you were dead? What's going on?"

Zuo Xiaowen shook his sleeves and coughed violently for a while, then stood up and leaned against the big tree, breathing heavily.

His face was much paler than before.

"I was supposed to be dead, but I spent a little bit of Gu worms and finally escaped."

As Zuo Xiaowen spoke, he touched the small bamboo cage made by a bamboo craftsman on his waist, with a distressed look on his face.

"Brother Fang, why don't we talk while walking? When I stay here, I always feel the chill behind me."

Yan Kuan shuddered as he spoke, feeling quite frightened.

"That's okay. Brother Yan and I both went to Shanshui City. What about you?" Li Daoxuan looked at Zuo Xiaowen and asked.

"I'm also going to Shanshui City."

Zuo Xiaowen stood up holding on to the tree trunk.

"That's a coincidence."

Li Daoxuan didn't say anything more and put the butcher's knife into its scabbard.

Yan Kuan had already identified the direction clearly, "Let's go, go this way."

He bent over and lowered his head.

When Li Daoxuan saw this gesture, he couldn't help but feel... like he was leading the devil into the village.

Yan Kuan was the puppet army who led the way, and Li Daoxuan himself was the Taijun.

He couldn't help but said: "Brother Yan, let's be normal. The way we met at the beginning was pretty good."

Hearing this, Yan Kuan straightened his waist and said with a wry smile: "Okay, I can come out this time thanks to Brother Fang."

As the three of them talked, they went down the mountain from the east.

Neither of them spoke much, and they both walked very quickly. It was not until they passed two mountains in a row and the sky turned pale that fish belly turned pale, and Zuo Xiaowen said with a pale face:

"Can...can you take a break? I can't walk anymore."

Yan Kuan was also very tired, but his survival instinct drove him not to stop.

As for Li Daoxuan, he seemed to be fine.

"Okay, let's take a rest."

As soon as Li Daoxuan finished speaking, Yan Kuan took out a packet of powder from the shroud ghost and sprinkled it around the three of them.

"Hey, little one, so you don't have to rest here and be stared at by those ghosts."

"Powder from an eyeless corpse?"

Li Daoxuan has this thing, and the effect is similar.

Yan Kuan folded the remaining bit and put it back inside the shroud ghost.

He looks like he is diligent and thrifty.

"No, that thing is too expensive. If you occasionally encounter evil spirits that can't be solved, just use it to save your life."

“This is cheaper, but it’s not as effective.”

Li Daoxuan recalled the price of the powder of the eyeless corpse, which seemed to be only thirty incense per pack.

From the perspective of Yan Kuan, a seventh-rate grain eater, a pack of thirty incense sticks is considered expensive.

Li Daoxuan couldn't help but think of the pile of merits on his body... It seems that the grain eaters in Shenwu City are not having a hard time either.

"I won't use this thing next time. I have a Gu insect with similar effects."

As soon as Zuo Xiaowen sat down, he leaned against the tree to rest, looking half-dead.

"Brother, I am from Shenwu City, and Brother Fang is from Shouwu City. How about you?" After leaving that ghost place, Yan Kuan's condition was indeed much better.

The voices were much louder.

"Me, I'm not from your Divine Witch City. I came from the Shogunate City."

"what?!"

Yan Kuan immediately sat up straight, and even Li Daoxuan looked at him in surprise.

In Li Daoxuan's view, the three major cities of the Nine-Level World, including the witches, the shogunate and the dancers, are basically three different countries.

They are extremely far apart from each other, especially after the arrival of the Five Turbid Troubles, communication has become extremely rare.

So now it is very strange to meet someone who came from Shogunate City.

"Didn't you say that the group of boatmen on the Yiluo River have disappeared? How did you get here? You are also going to Shanshui City."

Yan Kuan asked curiously.

Li Daoxuan didn't even know. He looked left and right. Yan Kuan also reacted and took the initiative to explain:

"Our Shenwu City is located on the north side of the Yiluo River, and the Shogunate City is located on the south side of the Yiluo River. Before the chaos of the Five Turbulences came, the main mode of transportation between Shenwu City and Shogunate City was a group of people active in Yiluo River. Boatman on the river.”

"But then, for some reason, the boatmen disappeared."

Zuo Xiaowen replied: "I came here on the boat crossing the Yin. It's not convenient to say what I was going to do."

"I heard that your side of Shogunate City is much safer...is that right?"

Yan Kuan asked, leaning his head.

"I didn't believe what they said before, but this time I came to your side... and found that it is indeed the case. It's a bit too chaotic here."

Zuo Xiaowen regretted a little, but he had already come, and he couldn't just go back.

"Mom... I also have to see if I can find a boatman to cross the underworld. Let's go to the south. The north is really not possible."

"Well, I heard that the reason why there are so many Yin-crossing boatmen now is that a large part of them are the group of boatmen on the Yiluo River. After they disappeared, they went to sail the Yin-crossing boat."

Zuo Xiaowen said and coughed violently a few more times, "I just heard about it, I don't know whether it's true or not."

"It's possible."

"They're all sailing anyway."

Two people from a big city were talking, and the content was still unknown to Li Daoxuan, so he, a person from a remote town, could only listen silently.

"Let's do this, Brother Zuo." Yan Kuan clasped his hands and said, "We have a life-long friendship now. If you have any way to go south, remember to tell me and I will go with you then. go."

Zuo Xiaowen was not very bright, so he didn't think there was anything wrong when he heard this.

"Okay, okay, but the price is a bit high."

"How high?" Yan Kuan gritted his teeth and touched his pocket, feeling that his wallet was still bulging.

"When I came up from the south, it cost me 10 merits. I guess it will be about the same when I go back."

"How many?"

Yan Kuan lost his voice and shouted: "You want 10 more merits? This group of boatmen who have been killed by God."

As he spoke, he punched the ground, gritted his teeth, and looked like he wanted to have a fight with the boatman of the Yin Crossing Boat.

Li Daoxuan had just become the city lord of this witch city and had no plans to go south for the time being, so he interrupted their conversation.

"Does either of you know Shanshui City better?"

Zuo Xiaowen shook his head, "I am from Shogunate City, and this is my first time going north."

"I..." Yan Kuan gritted his teeth as he spoke, "Actually, I am originally from Shanshui City."

"Ok?"

Li Daoxuan could tell by looking at Yan Kuan's expression that he probably had some kind of story.

But he didn't want to meddle in other people's business and asked, "I heard that there is a custom in your Shanshui City where unmarried and pregnant women are dipped in pig cages, and when they are buried after death, they have to put a mouthful in their mouths. rice."

"Is it?"

"how do you know?!"

Yan Kuan's face changed drastically, turning pale instantly and even trembling a little.

Li Daoxuan's words seemed to arouse some extremely bad memories for him...
