Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

Chapter 165 Weishan Zuo’s spiritual eyes control the soul (two-in-one)

"Brother Chen, are you going to Fairy Lake?"

Hearing him mention Yongchang and Dali, he had carefully studied the partridge whistle in southern Yunnan. He immediately reacted and asked in a low voice.

"Yes."

Chen Yulou didn't hide it either.

He nodded with a magnanimous expression.

As early as when I saw an old turtle in the water on the Nanpan River, I also heard Ba Mo talk about his experiences on Fuxian Lake when he was young.

He had already made up his mind.

now.

Anyway, we have to go back to Xiangyin first.

Thousands of threads.

to be frank.

Calm and calm.

"Brother Dao is in a hurry to return to Peacock Mountain?"

But even if you watch day and night, it's hard to see anything clearly.

Different from them.

The words just fell.

You will get the wrong idea if you see him.

Chen Yulou nodded.

Even the Muchen Bead was in hand.

He never had a clue in his heart.

Now everything depends on that dragon bone, before the heavenly book engraved in it can be deciphered.

Miss Hong pulled the reins in her hand, and the horse under her raised its head and neighed. Its iron hooves stepped on the thick fallen leaves in the forest, and headed straight for the ancient city of Nanjian like a dragon.

He waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice.

It was like a tangled knot in his heart.

The partridge whistle waved his hands repeatedly.

What kind of secret is hidden in Muchen Bead?
Is it true that the Muchen Bead can achieve immortality, as Senior Bishan saw on the ancient monument in the river?
Pile pile pieces.

But he knew very well that this matter was not easy.

Even if you can't see the underwater dragon.

Although I am very anxious about resolving the ghost curse, I wish I could do it sooner.

"Just a casual question."

Just return the snake eyes to the snake god.

"In that case...then don't wait."

Thinking about it.

First, Kunlun Mountain is thousands of miles away.

"Let's go!"

His lineage has not returned to the Holy Mountain for thousands of years. Even if there is a map to match it, it is still unclear whether the ancestral land can be accurately found due to the vicissitudes of life and the change of dynasties.

What's more.

"That's not it."

Chen Yulou suddenly thought of something, looked away from a distance and glanced at the Partridge Whistle.

Do you want to enter the ghost cave?

It's better not to think too much about it for now.

Although the prophet in the clan pointed out that it was the source of breaking the curse, he did not explain how to do it.

Whether it’s a detour by water or by land, it’s better to take this opportunity to take a trip.

He was reasoning over and over again, trying to find the key.

For the three brothers and sisters of the Bishan lineage, this trip is far from over.

The lost royal city and the ancient zombie village at the bottom of the lake, not to mention the wonders of the world in Fuxian Lake, are just a good way to relax.

The most important thing is to start by retrieving the Muchen Bead.

Different than when it came.

Take this opportunity to practice and hone yourself.

At least you don't have to dare to take a break like you did in the past. Twenty years have passed by in a flash, and when you look back, you realize that no matter how many places you have been to, they are all gone by the past.

On the way back.

In addition to the artifacts obtained and two days' worth of food and water, tents, equipment, and everything else that could be thrown away have been thrown away, and the journey is as light and simple as possible.

The cavalry followed the one in the red dress in front.

Travel quickly through the vast mountains.

Sitting on Longju's horse, Chen Yulou looked back and saw that Maluzhai became increasingly blurry.

but……

In the deepest part of the village.

He seemed to vaguely see an old figure.

Standing in front of the horn altar, behind him in all directions, figures like smoke and ghosts sat in the void, looking at their group of people.

"See you again by fate!"

to his realm.

Plus Tai Sui Lingmu.

Illusions are almost impossible.

Therefore, he must have felt something and hurriedly drove out the demon Basigu who Long Moye was about to see off.

Chen Yulou waved his hand and said something silently.

Then he patted the horse's back lightly, and the dragon horse immediately accelerated and chased the team in front.

Walking through the silent mountains and forests.

Countless birds and beasts were startled along the way.

It is only thirty to fifty miles from Zhelong Mountain to Nanjian Ancient City.

However, when I came before, I could still take the Tea Horse Road, but this time the route was full of mountains, rivers, swamps, and primitive forests that were rarely visited, and there were no marks on the map.

It's all based on experience.

For this reason, Chen Yulou sent more than ten guys out.

Two people form a team, crossing paths to explore the path.

In this way, the direction can be guaranteed to be good, but it will undoubtedly slow down the journey.

The journey could have been completed in two hours at most.

The group of people spent more than twice as much effort.

Until noon.

They finally passed through the endless mountains, and an ancient city standing by the Red River also appeared in sight.

Boats drifted on the river, and people outside the city came and went.

It is completely different from the silent scene in the mountains and forests.

One group is full of vitality.

Looking around, you can see figures of Bai, Yi, Tu, Wa, Dai and other ethnic groups wearing costumes here.

There are even many Han Chinese.

You can tell by looking at their attire that they are doing business here from outside.

Nanjian can also be regarded as a stop on the Ancient Tea Horse Road.

All business activities, food and accommodation are in the city.

So, looking at it this way, it doesn’t seem surprising to see Han people here.

Chen Yulou walked to the river on horseback. Looking from a distance, the ancient city was not that big, not even half as big as the ancient city of Xiangyin. However, in the Tengyue area, it was already considered a wealthy city.

The ancient city is surrounded by walls.

Just use simple mountain rocks piled up layer by layer.

The gatehouse is only over a foot high, and the three characters 'Nanjian City' can be faintly seen in ink, with three small characters standing vertically on the side.

"Zuo Yuanhai?"

Chen Yulou had no idea who this person was.

But Zuo's chieftain had a great background. From the destruction of Nanzhao to the Guangxu period of the former Qing Dynasty, it lasted for more than five hundred years. The time span was as long as that of ancient countries.

In the entire southern Yunnan, the only ones who could compete with them were the Mu clan of Lijiang and the Na clan of Yuanjiang.

Although it is now the Republic of China.

The chieftain's office has come to an end, and even the chieftain's office and inspection department have been changed to county offices.

But in a place like Tengyue, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away.

Chieftain rule has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

What's more, he is still the Zuo family of Weishan.

After more than five hundred years, everyone only knows Tusi Mansion, and they do not respect the king's behavior and do not obey the king's way.

"Let's go into the city."

Without thinking much, Chen Yulou dismounted and handed the reins to a waiter.

He called out Partridge Whistle, Miss Hong and others.

Immediately, he walked towards the city with his hands behind his back.

The person responsible for guarding the city was still a subordinate of the Tusi Mansion, and they also used old-fashioned muskets.

He glanced casually.

There were probably only a few dozen guards in the city.

All of them are lazy and undisciplined.

Leaning against the city wall, holding the chimney and puffing away the smoke.

He didn't even look at anyone coming and going.

See this.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a bit of contempt.

With the weapons they carry, it shouldn't be a problem to capture the city within a day or two.

but……

Don't look at a bunch of people like this.

It was enough to shock the local barbarians.

All of them lowered their heads, not daring to look directly, for fear that they would be killed.

Five hundred years of high-pressure rule had deeply ingrained the fear of the Tusi Mansion into the bones of the natives around Nanjian City.

I saw a group of people appear.

The few soldiers who were leaning against the wall and smoking cigarettes suddenly became energetic.

Nanjian City is a bigger place.

Although they are from the Tusi Mansion, they don't have much money on weekdays. They smoke, drink, and play with women. Which of them doesn't cost money?

Of course, they are using the banner of Tiger Bark Tree to make money by using the name of Zuo's Chieftain.

but.

Nanjian City is too remote.

The mountain people in the surrounding villages are all poor.

Even if you beat him to death, you won't be able to squeeze out two ounces of oil.

But the Han people are different.

Most of the merchants on the Tea Horse Road traveled in groups and even hired private guards. They did not dare to rob, but the traders who traveled here were the best targets for blackmail.

Just tell me the name of Zuo's Chieftain.

Then just pick up a few names.

What about toll money, salt tax, iron tax and tea fee.

These people are timid and can always knock off a few taels of silver with a little intimidation.

Of course, there are also hard-nosed ones.

But no matter how tough it is, it can't be tougher than guns.

With Zuo's chieftain at their back, even if they accidentally kill a few, no one will hold them accountable.

What's more, they are more happy to see that stupid young man.

No responsibility for being beaten to death.

You can still receive all the money and goods, which is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

I have been out for a long time today, but unfortunately, the few Han merchants there are all poor at first glance.

After asking for the toll money, they were allowed to enter the city.

but.

The group of people now are different.

Yishui is a tall man, and judging by his dress, he is not an ordinary person.

Several people looked at each other, with a flash of greed in their eyes.

If they were stopped, wouldn't all the wealth and wealth fall on them?
Just for the toll money and tea fee, fifty yuan is not too much.

Not to mention, there are a lot of good things stuffed in the bamboo baskets in the cargo compartment on both sides of the horse's back.

I dare not say more, but even if they deduct 10%, it will be enough for them to live happily for several years.

The only thing that frightened them was.

This group of people seemed not to be trifled with, and they had a strong sense of gangsterism. When they looked at them, their eyes showed not only a lack of awe, but even a bit of disdain. but……

After all, a few people could not resist the temptation of a sudden windfall.

They each put down their chimneys, grabbed the guns, and hurried towards Chen Yulou and his party.

"The shopkeeper?"

The little actions of a few people.

How could he hide it from Miss Hong?

He tilted his head, a smile flashed across his face, but there was a bone-chilling coldness in these three words.

"Why is the girl's family so angry?"

"Don't be impatient if you don't come to your doorstep."

Chen Yulou smiled and shook his head.

This place is no better than Duyun Cave.

Although the Zuo clan chieftain was powerful, he lived in Weishan City on weekdays, so he was also called the Weishan Zuo clan.

Nanjian is just a small town under Weishan Mountain.

In total, there are only a few dozen troops stationed there.

He just needed a few eyes and ears, or a map, to figure out which road was most suitable to take from Nanjian to Fuxian Lake.

"Yes, from the shopkeeper."

The red girl nodded.

She has been with Chen Yulou for many years, and she knows that the shopkeeper may seem to be a gentle gentleman, but in the end, the blood of Xieling flows in his bones.

He took over the position of chief executive of Changsheng Mountain when he was a teenager.

Young.

Why convince people?

Of course it's thunder!
A few petty thieves didn't even take her seriously, let alone the big shopkeeper?
He immediately stopped talking and just watched the three people approaching coldly.

As for the guys behind me.

Although I have the intention to show my hand in front of the boss.

But now that I have said that.

Naturally, none of them dared to act rashly.

Look at the person calmly.

This scene frightened the three of them quite a bit. Although they were carrying guns and had the chieftain's mansion as their backer, they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave when they walked through the long queue.

Just like those eyes.

It was enough to knock the three of them into hell.

"Do, what do you do?"

He was panicking under pressure, but the unconscious trembling in his words revealed his thoughts.

See how useless these people are.

The guys on the horses almost laughed out loud.

"Naturally..."

Chen Yulou smiled, but when he raised his head, his gentle eyes were filled with green light.

The three of them seemed to be frozen for an instant.

His eyes were empty and his eyes were lifeless.

"This, round light technique?"

The partridge whistle on the side noticed something strange about the three of them, and couldn't help but feel a move in his heart.

The round light technique, also known as the psychic technique, is one of the ancient Taoist techniques.

Able to capture other people's thoughts easily.

Monsters in the mountains, especially psychics such as foxes, raccoons, and Huang Daxian, are also good at this technique, but the technique is evil, so it is often called round light magic.

Captivating people with evil methods.

Like falling into an illusion.

It makes it impossible to distinguish between reality and fiction.

He had gone to Laoxiong Ridge to go to the border of Hunan and Guizhou, but he turned back to Pingshan halfway because he heard that there was a yellow monster on the ancient raccoon monument, which used round light magic to harm people.

Gather a bunch of stupid men and women.

Not only did they steal incense, they also ate meat and drank blood, killing countless people in the mountains.

Now, when he saw the three people's eyes looking as distracted as wooden piles, he immediately thought of the ancient art of Yuan Guang.

only……

Just a moment of effort.

He didn't even notice any fluctuations in spiritual power from Chen Yulou.

For a moment, I couldn't help but hesitate.

I don’t know if it’s Taoism or alchemy?
Even if he is like this, the others are naturally even more surprised. They are all confused and don't know what happened?
"Who is Zuo Yuanhai who is inscribed on the city gate plaque?"

Everyone looked surprised.

Chen Yulou seemed not to be seen.

It's just a small trick for Tai Sui's spiritual purpose.

"The third son of the Zuo family is now in charge of Tu County in Nanjian City."

The one who spoke earlier responded in a dazed manner.

really.

This answer was expected by Chen Yulou.

In the area under the jurisdiction of Weishan, the word Zuo represents supreme power, and ordinary people are not qualified to use it as a surname.

The Third Young Master should be the direct bloodline of this generation of chieftains.

"Then he is in the city?"

"No, Third Young Master Zuo is in Weishan Mansion on weekdays. He only comes here when there are important events."

"How many guards are there in the city?"

"There are eighty people in the book, but there are only about thirty of them. The rest are the Third Young Master's private soldiers and usually follow him."

One question and one answer.

Just a few words.

Chen Yulou already had confidence in his heart.

Nanjian City was more vulnerable than he thought.

The thirty or so men cannot be called empty troops, they are simply made of paper.

"If I want to go to Lucheng from here, which way is the fastest?"

"Lucheng..."

This question seems a bit difficult.

He hesitated for a while and then said without confirmation.

"I have never been to Lucheng, but the Third Young Master has a complete map in his house. I can go and get it for you."

"it is good."

Chen Yulou nodded.

"We are waiting for you at the restaurant in the city. Go and come back quickly."

As he spoke, he took another deep look at him, and when their eyes met, the man's eyes seemed a little clearer, but his mind was not completely awakened.

Just a mechanical turn.

Head straight into the city.

As for the remaining two people, they still stood there with empty and confused expressions.

"Let's go to the city!"

Chen Yulou breathed out and waved to everyone.

"This...shopkeeper, is this the end?"

Seeing him getting up, he walked towards the city.

The people around were even more surprised. They all looked at each other, and they had not even recovered from the previous scene.

At the beginning.

They just thought the shopkeeper was prepared to force them.

Three greedy little thieves, it is not easy to capture them.

What's more.

They have always been the only ones standing in the way of Changsheng Mountain, and there are still people who dare to disturb Tai Sui. It's really boring.

But things turned out.

But it completely exceeded their expectations.

No one saw what the shopkeeper did. The three guys just asked and said whatever they wanted, as if they had encountered an evil nightmare.

The one who left took the initiative to get the map.

This motherfucker is more honest than a knife on her neck.

Although they were also veterans of the martial arts world, they had never seen such a method of heaven and man. For a moment, they felt as if something had been scratched in their hearts, and they were extremely itchy.

But they were soft-spoken, and even if they were curious, they didn't dare to ask questions face to face.

but.

Red Girl is not among them.

The same is true for her at this moment.

Her eyes were full of surprise when she saw that the shopkeeper really wanted to be the shopkeeper.

"Do we still have to treat them to dinner?"

Chen Yulou stopped, turned around and smiled.

"No... Shopkeeper, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, how should the two of them deal with it?"

The red girl was startled at first.

Then he pointed at the two soldiers who were still in place with a confused look on their faces.

"rest assured."

"If you wanted to kill someone, you would have died a hundred times."

Chen Yulou put his hands behind his back and said calmly.

His expression was calm, as if he was just saying something simple and trivial.

But unfortunately, when it came out of his mouth, no one dared not believe it.

With the method of heaven and man always showing his head.

Don’t say it a hundred times.

Ten thousand times is enough.

"Let's go. Let's go into the city and find a place to eat. We have to rush in the afternoon."

Shake his head.

Chen Yulou continued to move forward.

"Oh……"

The red girl opened her mouth, but finally swallowed the words that came to her lips.

He turned around and glanced at the faces that were even more confused and puzzled.

"Enter the city!"

With a loud shout, the bandits in Xieling all reacted and quickly put their thoughts away. Not daring to think any more, they immediately hurried towards the city.

See this situation.

The surrounding barbarians and mountain people could not help but be greatly shocked.

You must know that this is under the rule of the Tusi Mansion, especially the person who is in charge of this city is the Third Young Master Zuo. This man is bound to retaliate and is cruel in his methods. No one in the city can ride a horse except him.

These Han people don't know the rules.

I guess I'm going to be in bad luck soon.

A group of people did not dare to watch the excitement, but left in a hurry. They were worried that when the soldiers from the lower house arrived and the blood flowed into a river, it would affect them, fish in the pond.

As for the few Han traders passing by.

I just want to give you a few reminders.

However, looking at the gangster spirit and fierceness of the group, they mumbled their words and did not dare to say anything more in the end.

Wait for a group of people to cross the city gate.

The moment he disappeared into the city.

The two people who stayed in the same place trembled all over. Their empty eyes were a little clearer and brighter, but more of them were confused and confused.

"what happened?"

"Why did we come here?"

"Where's that kid Kegun?"

The two looked at each other and looked around, as if they were fragmented after a hangover, with no memory of what happened.

"Could it be that smoking too many cigarette leaves caused hallucinations?"

I thought about it for a while.

One of them rubbed his face vigorously and said to himself.

"Don't worry about it, mother. I don't know what's going on. I'm so dizzy. I'm going to lie down for a while."

"Wait, I'm going too..."
