I built the Jade Capital with the Netherworld

Chapter 37: Dragon Flower Cave, Fox Desecrating Corpse

The roosters crow and the morning light breaks.

Cen Ying came out of the wild temple, stood in front of the threshold, tiptoed and looked into the distance. The clear sunlight illuminated the mist covering the mountain village, as bright as the hairpins in a girl's bun, clear and pure.

She was distracted for a moment.

"Let's go!"

Lu Wujiu walked past behind him and headed towards the mottled old horse. The morning sun cast a long shadow behind him, covering Cen Ying's body, which was reassuring.

"Ok!"

Cen Ying nodded and chased after him.

After Ruan Xing's interruption, Lu Wujiu, who had not yet finished looting the mass grave, ran around the cemetery near Liangcheng all day.

The harvest was not much, but it was not a small amount either, which made up for his previous losses.

Afterwards, he rushed to the Corpse Valley without stopping.

The "Corpse Throwing Valley" mentioned by Cen Ying is called a valley, but in fact it is the cliff of Yunsong Mountain.

In order to make it easier to deal with the corpses, the disciples of the Nanyang branch of the Fangzhong Sect, also known as the Huanxi Hall, stood on the cliff and threw the corpses directly down.

Over time, it became known as the Valley of Corpses.

When Lu Wujiu reached Yunsong Mountain, he took a look from afar, then left his old horse at the foot of the mountain and walked along the mountain road.

Yunsong Mountain is indeed extremely large, stretching from Longyou in the north to Nanyang in the south. From a distance, it stretches for hundreds of miles. It is one of the six major branches of the Dongheng Mountain Range and has been known as "the towering and beautiful Yunsong" since ancient times.

The hilltop occupied by the Huanxitang of the Fangzhong faction is nothing more than Yunsong Longwei.

Lu Wujiu felt this more deeply after entering the forest. All he saw were steep mountain roads and dense forests. The dense treetops blocked out all light, making the day seem as dark as night.

Even Cen Ying would stop from time to time to look at the Yunsong Mountain and determine the direction.

Lu Wujiu waved the forest whip, walked through the mountains and forests, waded through the valleys, climbed the cliffs, and followed the mountain trail. He walked from morning to dusk and finally arrived at his destination.

"Master, the Valley of Corpses should be ahead."

Cen Ying pointed at the cliff in front, subconsciously slowed down her pace, and felt a little depressed.

Lu Wujiu nodded, waved the whip, and after passing through a thick bush, the view in front of him suddenly opened up.

All I saw was the dense forest broken into pieces, as if crushed by a heavy object. The scene of corpses everywhere that I had expected did not appear.

Lu Wujiu strolled over and looked around. He saw only tattered clothes and cloth hanging among the branches and leaves under the cliff, as well as bloodstains that had long since dried and turned black and splattered among the rocks and trees.

Cen Ying's voice trembled: "Was it eaten by a wild beast?"

Lu Wujiu shook his head: "That shouldn't be the case. Wild beasts won't eat it so cleanly."

Cen Ying looked dazed: "Then... where did the body go?"

Lu Wujiu raised his head and asked, "Are you worried about your sister?"

Cen Ying was shocked, realizing that her little thoughts had already been seen through by Lu Wujiu. She quickly said, "My Lord, I, my Lord, am truly thinking about you. I just wanted to come by and take a look, in case my sister also has a residual soul left..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Wujiu suddenly waved his sleeves, and his magic power was like the wind, which made Cen Ying's face change drastically.

While struggling with his thoughts, he closed his eyes and accepted death.

Unexpectedly, the magic power swept past, and the imagined death did not happen. Instead, a "thump" sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard.

They opened their eyes and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a body fall from the spot where they had just stood.

The corpse had been smashed to pieces and deformed, with the facial features so distorted that it was unrecognizable.

But judging from the details, she is just a young girl of twelve or thirteen years old!

Cen Ying was about to go over to check it out, but was grabbed by Lu Wujiu.

"Don't move, wait a minute."

With that, he exited Corpse-Throwing Valley, found a commanding vantage point, and wielded his brush, driving back the surrounding bushes to create a camouflage. The Golden Crow set in the west, and the Jade Rabbit rose in the east.

The bright moonlight cast a miserable white light in the forest. A few forest birds landed on the branches, whimpering and chirping, like mountain ghosts.

Lu Wujiu calmed down and stared at the Corpse Valley silently, neither arrogant nor impatient.

The repetitive cycle of reincarnation day and night in the human skin book has made his character as solid as a rock.

Suddenly, a whispering sound came from afar, and it seemed particularly clear in the silent night.

Listening carefully, I heard a shrill voice that didn't sound like human speech.

"Hey, why haven't I seen Old Zamao recently?"

"You don't know yet? He's dead!"

"Dead, dead?! How did he die?"

"Keep your voice down... I'm telling you, he was beaten to death by the king!"

"Ah, what's going on?"

"I'm telling you, don't tell anyone."

"What's our relationship? When did I find a beautiful furnace and tripod and not share it with you? Tell me quickly."

"The king has an enemy who has become a god... Hey, there's a two-legged sheep."

The chattering sounds were getting closer and closer. Following the sound, I saw two foxes in human clothes emerging from the swaying grass and trees.

When they saw the corpses in the valley, their eyes lit up and they ran over quickly. The two foxes were clearly wearing human clothes, but they were walking on all fours, which looked funny and ridiculous.

The two of them looked over the corpse, then glanced at each other, their faces filled with joy: "We're in for a treat tonight."

As they spoke, they lifted the corpse one after another and returned to the forest.

When Cen Ying saw this scene, she subconsciously looked at Lu Wujiu, but found that Lu Wujiu was also looking at her with a probing look.

"Master, I have never heard of a fox spirit living in the Corpse Valley. Perhaps it moved here recently."

"Really? Just follow and see."

As Lu Wujiu spoke, his figure flickered and his soul left his body. In the moonlight, he looked like a double image, which made Cen Ying's eyes flicker.

Last night, the immortal's soul did not leave his body all night. She thought that Mr. Lu was not good at leaving his body, but now she saw that his soul was as solid as his body. How could he not be good at it? He was clearly a master of soul cultivation!

This made her feel a little disappointed for no reason.

While Cen Ying was in a trance, Lu Wujiu also put away his physical body, put on the remains of the monster, turned into a shadow, and chased after her.

These two fox spirits seemed to be the overlords of the mountain. Wherever they went, birds stopped singing and insects stopped chirping.

We walked along the mountain road, turned around and around, and finally stepped onto an iron chain bridge. The end of the iron chain bridge was not a mountain road, but a cave leading to the mountain.

The old owl was squatting on the iron chain. When he saw two vixens coming over, he twisted his neck, stared at the corpse, and called out "Ga Ga" twice.

"Go, go, you'll have your share later."

The fox spirit waved its hand to drive it away, carried the corpse, and stepped onto the shaky iron chain bridge.

The shadow under his feet seemed to be afraid of falling into the mountain stream, so he curled up into a ball and followed the fox spirit's corpse into the cave in the mountain.

The entrance to the grotto is quite spacious, with the words "Dragon Flower" engraved on the lintel. As you go deeper, the corridor becomes increasingly narrow, so that only one person can pass through.

There are hidden recesses along the way, all guarded by foxes and snakes, which are full of murderous intentions.

After passing through the entrance hall, the view suddenly opens up and an irregular circular cave with a diameter of about 50 meters comes into view.

There were several fox spirits stationed in the cave. When they saw the duo carrying the corpse, they were all very excited. They chattered and shouted that they could have meat again tonight.
