Day and night tour

Chapter 279: Finding the Dragon and Lighting Incense
"Brother, I found the old zombie for you."

Zhou Lingyi preached to Zhou Xuan through the ancestral tree.

Zhou Xuan was greatly encouraged. He slapped his hands on the table and said, "Fuck the forbidden area of ​​tattoos."

His fighting spirit was already strong.

Yun Ziliang said, "It's a pity that your Dragon Seeking Incense has not been officially opened yet. After breaking through the forbidden area, you can't release my Dragon Seeking Talisman."

"Why don't you just place the talisman yourself? Why do you have to ask me to do it?" Zhou Xuan said.

Yun Ziliang drew a circle with his arms again, and said excitedly, "Sense of ritual, do you understand? Is it possible to do anything without a sense of ritual?"

"For example, when you lose a card, you have to have a sense of ritual?"

"Bullshit."

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

Now that the old zombie has been found, all that remains is to seek the power of the monster. There is a monster diagonally opposite the Zhou family's Jingyi shop. She is the best choice to attack the forbidden area of ​​tattoos.

"I'm going to look for Sister Cui. If Yazi comes over, don't tell him where we went."

In order to borrow the power of the monster, Cui Jie will definitely reveal her aura. If Zhao Wuya sees her, how can she explain it?
……

Zhou Xuan went straight to the snack stand. Cui Jie was greeting customers, and Mu Hua was passing snacks while reading a book to Xiao Fuzi next to her.

"History is a long river. Listening to the storytelling, you can appreciate the various aspects of human life and discuss the heroic spirit of the world..."

Xiao Fuzi likes to listen and Muhua likes to talk. These two are really a good match.

Zhou Xuan looked at the snack stand bathed in the morning sun and felt as if he was in another world.

One is Cuijie who works hard at cooking, and the other is Muhua who is still childish and helps with housework.

This brother and sister are the perfect portrayal of ordinary people in Jing State, living and working in peace and contentment and being hardworking.

But these two people, one has the mother of a hundred ghosts in his body, and the other has the laws of the Well Country hidden in his body, both of them are not ordinary people.

"Brother Zhou, what would you like to eat? We have some newly arrived beef tendons. They are very fresh and can be eaten right after they are boiled in water. Would you like one portion?"

When Sister Cui saw Zhou Xuan standing in front of the stall in a daze, she thought he had not decided what to eat today.

"Sister Cui, give me three bowls of pea noodles, and add more sauce."

"Bring it to your store?"

"Row."

"Okay." Sister Cui was quick and efficient. She cooked the noodles, picked up a plate and brought it to Zhou Xuan in the Jingyi shop.

As soon as he brought it in, Zhou Xuan grabbed Sister Cui's wrist and said, "Sister Cui, can I ask you a favor?"

"You say." Sister Cui was enthusiastic.

"Today I am going to Yunluo Mountain and enter the forbidden area to capture two enemies. I need your help."

"Yes." Sister Cui did not shirk and said, "I am doing business across the street. I can see you when you leave the house and I will follow you."

"Thank you very much."

"It's not really a thank you, it's just a favor between friends."

After making the promise, Sister Cui returned to her own shop.

The powers of the spirits and old zombies have all been gathered. As for the Buddha's energy, Zhou Xuan has no shortage of it. The Buddha's energy is contained in his body.

Zhou Xuan has gathered all the power to break through the forbidden area of ​​tattoos, except for the manpower.

"Shake people, I'm a professional."

Zhou Xuan entered the secret realm and called out to Li Chengfeng: "Old Li."

"High Priest, I am in the study and can come."

"I won't surrender. I just want you to help me get some people. I want to attack the forbidden area."

Zhou Xuan said.

"That's easy to say."

If someone else wants to send someone, the lobby of Mingjiang Mansion has to see what the other party is going to do. If the young master wants to send someone, doesn't that mean we should go through fire and water without hesitation?
"I will notify the painter, Shang Wenjun, and Qingfeng now."

"Call more, it's not because we're afraid of losing, we have to show some pomp and circumstance."

Zhou Xuan ordered with a smile.

Although he said he was just showing off, he actually had his own ideas.

Peng Hou is dead, Wan Se Jie and the Hundred Eyes High Priest are far away in the capital city, and there are not many powerful forces left in the forbidden area.

The painter, the musician, and the lady in the red coffin, who had spent eight incense sticks in the past, could naturally be defeated.

But...what about the members of the Tattoo Ancient Clan?
There are so many people in the tribe, and it may not be possible to control the situation with just a few people. If the ancient people counterattack and riot, Zhou Xuan will have to suppress them by force.

But if he really killed too many of those tribesmen, Peng Sheng would probably be sad.

So call more people, control the situation with lightning speed, and after dealing with the three-headed stone Buddha, completely brainwash the ancient clan that the stone Buddha had used in the past three hundred years.

The battle has been set.
Zhou Xuan then replied to Zhou Lingyi: "We have prepared the manpower and methods to break the forbidden area. Sister, are you really going to come?"

"Of course I have to come. I've said it before, the Tattoo Ancient Clan, after nailing the four Great Nuos to death, has become my karma. If I don't resolve this karma myself, I'm afraid that when I comprehend the world again in the future, a barrier will appear in my heart."

"Then I will call you over after I break through the forbidden area."

Zhou Xuan said again.

"Okay, but how many people did you call?"

"I asked Lao Li to greet them. I think he has called all the people who can be called."

When Zhou Lingyi heard this, he covered half of his face with a palm leaf fan and laughed very brightly. After laughing, he said, "Brother, there is actually no need to find so many people. If we go with the two of us, no one can defeat us within nine incense sticks."

"So confident?"

For a moment, Zhou Xuan didn't know where his sister's confidence came from.

Obviously, she has six incense sticks. Although according to Master Jian, the Nuo family's practice is very peculiar, and my sister's incense is practiced backwards, but the difference between six incense sticks and eight incense sticks is a bit big...

"If I were to fight the three-headed stone Buddha alone, I would naturally not have the extra confidence, but if you go with me, then things will be different."

“What can I change?”

Zhou Xuan was very surprised. He was surprised that he had such a high status in his sister's heart. She actually thought that he could help in the battle with Gao Xianghuo.

As a lowly practitioner of the Four Incense Sticks, it would be a blessing for him if he didn't cause any trouble and even made things worse.

"You are much stronger than you think."

Zhou Lingyi chuckled and said, "You'll know once you go to Yunluo Mountain."

After saying this, Zhou Lingyi disappeared in the sound of silvery laughter.

……

The means to break into the forbidden area are complete, and the recruitment has reached the final stage.

"Finally, we have to notify Shuzi."

Since we are going to attack the forbidden area of ​​tattoo, how can we miss the ancestral peach tree?

During the catastrophe in Mingjiang, because of the appearance of Peng Sheng, the Peach Blossom Tree gained devout faith, and it had the spare strength to grow back to the ground from the forbidden area of ​​the Big Mother Star Pit.

But its power is still weak, and it cannot stay on the ground for long. Now it has sunk back into the crater of the mother planet.

Zhou Xuan took out the talisman for clearing wrongs.

He still had three chances to return to the palace. After he crossed out one of them, the environment around him changed drastically.

A flash of white light illuminated his surroundings. After the white light died down, Zhou Xuan returned to the Big Mother Star Pit.

This star pit looks very much like the human womb. The sky and the earth are purple, like wriggling flesh and blood.

The ground is elastic and can stimulate the growth of granulation tissue. The sky seems to breathe, and the pink capillaries appear and disappear between its expansion and contraction.

Zhou Xuan was already very familiar with the environment here. He strode towards the Peach Blossom Tree, wanting to tell it the good news that he was about to enter the forbidden area of ​​tattoos.

"Shuzi...you'll be able to get out of this godforsaken place soon."

The big mother star pit seemed to dislike Zhou Xuan's description. Where Zhou Xuan stepped, a big pit appeared, which tripped Zhou Xuan and made him stumble.

"Hey, Xingkeng, you can actually understand what I'm saying?"

Zhou Xuan had come to this place many times, but this was the first time he discovered that the Big Mother Star Pit actually contained intelligent creatures.

"Today is a good day. I won't argue with you. I'm going to find the tree and move it today."

Zhou Xuan stomped the ground to vent his anger, and then continued walking towards the peach blossom tree.

……

Inside Zhou Xuan's secret realm, Miss Qiang was originally playing Monopoly with three human brains, while the other human brains were spectators, watching the game with great interest from the side.

Suddenly, Miss Wall felt a particularly familiar feeling.

She quickly stood up from the black water and probed her consciousness out of Zhou Xuan's secret realm... Zhou Xuan did not impose any restrictions on Miss Qiang, so she could enter and exit the secret realm at will.

When Miss Wall's consciousness emerged from Zhou Xuan's body and looked around, she immediately felt like crying. "Engineer, you are an engineer, and I am the Blood Girl."

Miss Qiang continued to call out in the Great Mother Star Crater, but after calling out several times, she realized that she was using the language of the Well Country.

During the days of interacting with Zhou Xuan, Miss Qiang has been communicating in the language of Jingguo, and it has become a habit.

After she realized this, she quickly adjusted her language and called out to the Great Mother Star Pit again in the language of the Flesh and Blood Divine Dynasty.

As she shouted, she began to cry. Meeting a soulmate in a foreign land always brings great sadness.

At this time, voices were also heard in the crater of the Great Mother Star. The tone and form of the voices were exactly the same as those of Miss Wall.

"Miss Qiang, this big mother star pit also belongs to your Flesh and Blood Dynasty. From what you said, it is an engineer?"

Zhou Xuan had heard from Miss Qiang before that in the Flesh and Blood Dynasty, the person with the highest authority was called the "Mastermind".
Under the main brain, there are engineers. According to Miss Wall, engineers are the smartest conscious beings in the Flesh and Blood Dynasty.

"It seems to be right in terms of timing."

Zhou Xuan pondered for a while. Miss Qiang came to Jingguo before the twenty-four gods ascended to the sky.

The Big Mother Star Crater is also a visitor from outer space, and it arrived before the twenty-four god-level beings ascended to the sky.

"He is an engineer from our Flesh and Blood Dynasty, absolutely true."

Miss Wall seemed to sense where the engineer's consciousness was, so she jumped out of Zhou Xuan's body and transformed into a little girl, running wildly on the purple ground.

The direction she ran towards was where the ancestral peach blossom tree was.

She ran to the cushion next to the ancestral tree, knelt down, and reached out to touch the cushion.

"Is this the engineer?" Zhou Xuan was a little surprised. This cushion was the one he had been sitting on when he was comprehending the tattoo pattern.

Who would have thought that there was always someone sitting under his butt?

"The futon is not her, she is under the futon." Miss Wall patted the futon with her hand and said with a little sadness: "Engineer, how are you now? Can I see you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a sigh came from inside the futon. It was obvious that the engineer, who had been trapped for more than two thousand years, could not even fulfill Miss Qiang's simple request.

But engineers can't do it, but the peach blossom tree can.

It stretched out countless branches and pierced into the area around the cushion. Then, with sudden force, the branches became like countless hands, digging a huge mass of flesh and blood on the ground.

The flesh and blood was like red gel, and the engineer's consciousness was inside this flesh and blood gel. She was wearing very thin clothes and had a graceful figure, but her eyes were closed.

She and the blood, flesh and gel together looked like a ball of amber.

"The engineer seems to be imprisoned." Zhou Xuan saw the engineer inside the gel, pointed his hand towards his eyes, and then waved his hand.

This subtle movement has already revealed her current situation… She was imprisoned here by the Feng Shui formation set up by the first generation of Mountain Ancestor, Peng Hou, and Star God.

"I'll dig you out."

Miss Qiang was very sad. She reached out to dig at the bloody flesh, shouting as she dug: "We, the people of the Blood and Flesh Dynasty, are all very kind. Why are we always imprisoned?

The Bone Elders have imprisoned me for so many years for the secret of my flesh and blood, and you have been imprisoned until now. What did we do wrong? "

She kept digging at the flesh, but the engineer kept waving his hands, signaling her to stop.

Zhou Xuan also gently pressed Miss Qiang's shoulders and said, "Don't dig anymore. Your digging speed is not as fast as the growth of flesh and blood. Besides, there are restrictions here. Even if you dig her out, you can't take her away. It's better to listen to what she has to say."

When Zhou Xuan saw the branches of the Peach Blossom Tree trembling uncontrollably like overtired human hands, he knew that the tree would soon collapse.

With Zhou Xuan's reminder, Miss Qiang stopped digging, held the flesh with both hands, and wanted to listen to what the engineer said...

...After another passage of language that Zhou Xuan could not understand at all, Miss Qiang kept nodding her head.

When she nodded for the third time, the ancestral tree finally couldn't hold on any longer. The branches lost their strength, and the mass of gelatinous flesh and blood smashed into the ground like a huge rock weighing thousands of pounds.

Miss Qiang turned around and said to Zhou Xuan: "The engineer has a way to get out."

"What method?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"Up there..." Miss Qiang pointed to the sky above the Great Mother Star Pit and said, "Up there, there is a Mingjiang Prefecture's ancestral dragon. This ancestral dragon is lying under East Market Street, suppressing the engineers."

"Isn't that the engineer's flesh and blood body above the sky?" Zhou Xuan asked.

He once talked with Miss Qiang about the Flesh and Blood Dynasty. The people of the Flesh and Blood Dynasty were all conscious beings, but they were able to generate flesh and blood, and their physical bodies were extremely huge.

The entire mother planet crater is filled with the bodies of engineers.

"Beyond the engineer's body, there is an ancestral dragon coiled around him to suppress him."

Miss Wall corrected the words.

"So, as long as Zulong nods, we can release the engineers?"

"Ah."

"Then who can make Zulong nod his head?"

"You." Miss Qiang said, "Your third sect is Xunlongxiang, and now you have received the blessing of two ancestral dragons. You are the only one who can make the ancestral dragon of Dongshi Street nod his head."

"It seems like you think highly of me."

Zhou Xuan held his cheek with his hand. He hadn't even developed the dragon-seeking energy yet, so naturally he couldn't get the Ancestral Dragon to nod and let the engineer go.

and……

...Zhou Xuan felt that things were not that simple.
After all, it was the three gods who suppressed the engineer together. If the engineer really had not committed any crime, he would not have suffered such a serious crime.

And even if the engineer really didn't commit any crime, and the three gods just disliked her and suppressed her, Zhou Xuan had to find out the whole story.

The incident of removing the seal and releasing the disaster has been played out more than once in operas, but it would never happen in Zhou Xuan's case.

He wasn't 100% sure, and he wouldn't let the engineer go.

"As for this matter, I have to wait until I finish repairing the dragon-seeking incense before I can talk to Zulong. But before I finish repairing this incense, I will find out everything and find out what happened that year that caused the engineer to be imprisoned here."

Zhou Xuan accepted the job and said what he wanted to do.

Miss Qiang naturally agreed and stopped talking about engineers.

Zhou Xuan then walked to the front of the Peach Blossom Tree and said, "Ershu, I have good news for you today. I will take you back to Pengjia Town."

When the Peach Blossom Tree heard this, it was so happy that it shook its branches and leaves with a rustling sound.

"Shuzi, sense my location later. When I ask you to come out, you should show your head. I guarantee that you will find Pengjia Town as soon as you show your head."

When Zhou Xuan said this, he took out a pen and was about to make a stroke on the Book of Cleansing Wrongs, leaving the Great Mother Star Pit and returning to reality.

Just as he was about to start writing, a branch twisted and entangled Zhou Xuan's pen, preventing him from leaving.

"Shuzi, I have to go to Yunluo Mountain."

"Swish."

The Peach Blossom Tree was still swaying, and several branches formed a sedan chair, lifting Zhou Xuan up, and then the treetop slowly floated up.
The ancestral peach blossom tree was growing taller and bigger, and it carried Zhou Xuan all the way to the sky of the Great Mother Starry Sky.

At the same time, an extra branch pointed towards the dome of the sky.

"Let me touch it?" Zhou Xuan understood and asked.

The branches of the peach blossom tree once again made the joyful "rustling" sound.

Zhou Xuan reached out to touch it. When he touched the dome, his hand felt sticky and he could feel his blood vessels beating. The dome was part of the engineer's body, so it was normal to have these feelings.
But what was abnormal was that Zhou Xuan seemed to have seen a giant dragon stretching across the sky and earth.

Every dragon scale was flashing with flames, as if it could burn through the world.

The powerful dragon energy, just a little bit of it, caused the number of dragon scales in Zhou Xuan's secret realm to grow wildly, and there was a trend of nurturing the dragon energy.
"East Market Street... Zulong?"

Zhou Xuan immediately understood why the ancestral tree wanted to send him to the top of the dome.

"Shuzi, you taught me how to tattoo, which allowed me to burn two sticks of incense smoothly. Now you are sending me to light the third stick of Xunlong incense. Your service is very good."

……

Dongshi Street, Zhou's Jingyi Shop,

Yun Ziliang paced in the store, and after walking two or three steps, he looked at the clock in the store.

"Can we still go today? Why hasn't Xuanzi come yet?"

Yun Ziliang muttered.

Peng Sheng advised: "Master Yun, please be patient and wait a little longer."

"Wait a little longer..."

Before Yun Ziliang could finish his sentence, he suddenly heard a whistling sound in his ears.

The whistle was clear and sharp, full of power, but the ending sounded a bit sick, as if it lacked strength.

"The Ancestral Dragon of Mingjiang Prefecture roared."

Yun Ziliang's face changed drastically. He ran to the door of the store and listened carefully.

"The sound of the Zulong's roar seems to be a little weak." Peng Sheng also walked to the door and commented.

"The Ancestral Dragon has been polluted after all." Yun Ziliang said, "The Ancestral Dragon will not howl for no reason. There must be a reason. Could it be that...Xuan Zi has cultivated enough Dragon Seeking Qi? But that's impossible. He went to the Great Mother Star Pit to inform the Peach Blossom Ancestral Tree. How can Dragon Seeking Qi be cultivated in that place?"

As he was speaking, the bricks and tiles of East Market Street rustled without wind, and all the door curtains and banners on the street were stained with golden dragon light. An extremely powerful dragon roar sounded in East Market Street, like the beating of a war drum or the sound of hammering on metal and stone...
