Chapter 21 021
There are indeed evil monsters hidden in the stone statue. Because of the difficult living environment, it is not easy to find such a natural place to live. It is probably because of the opportunity and the deep underground, it is constantly absorbing the vitality in the mountains and forests to practice, and slowly practicing Taoism. However, as humans' destruction of the environment becomes more and more powerful, the vitality in the mountains is gradually lost. If you want to practice, you naturally have to do other methods.
This other method is the fastest and most conducive to cultivation and can develop for a long time and sustainably. There is nothing better than devouring the soul essence of human beings. And devouring a hundred human beings is not as useful as devouring a Taoist priest with Taoism. If it weren't for the first time when Lu Jingming came here, it was busy absorbing the stored human souls and failed to come out in time, and it took action against Lu Jingming last time. So this time when Lu Jingming and Lan Yuzhuo stepped into this mountain, they became the target food of evil things again.
Unfortunately, if Si Yang was not there today, they would have come here rashly and might have become the food on the plate of the evil creature. This ordinary person who has practiced for up to ten or twenty years is not as good as the evil creature that has practiced for hundreds of years. Especially now that the Xuanmen is in decline, even the talismans they hold in their hands can be used to deal with ordinary little evil ghosts. If they deal with such evil creatures born and raised in heaven, they can only die.
But now the one who died was the evil creature that was not long-eyed. It would be great to hide quietly when they went up the mountain. Si Yang is not the kind of heavenly master who takes catching ghosts and subduing demons as his mission. As long as he finds Jiang Meng’s three souls, he doesn’t care whether his evil creatures harm people or not. As long as he doesn’t commit it to him, he will not do his business. As a result, he is still alive and wants to come out and go across the road to die. Who can he blame?
No matter how fast the evil thing is, it is an evil thing that grows up in a peaceful and prosperous era. It is not the opponent of Si Yang who fought in the big environment.
Si Yang raised his hand gently, and the evil thing was blocked from his way. Seeing that the situation was not good, a ball of black evil began to release wisps of black smoke. When the smoke left the body of the evil thing, it turned into floating souls one by one.
The illuminated spirit bead above everyone's heads was not affected by the yin energy from beginning to end. The light made the yin energy in the dark mountains look foggy and weird. At this time, countless floating souls suddenly appeared. This was the first time that Lu Jingming and Lan Yuzhuo had seen this scene in many years.
Just as the two were stunned, Si Yang threw a bundle of ropes at Lu Jingming: "Is it okay to tie up all these souls?"
Lu Jingming hurriedly said, "No problem!" and then he started to act with Lan Yuzhuo. There are so many souls, life and death souls. If he hadn't found this place because of Jiang Meng's affairs, he wouldn't know how many people would have died innocently. What's even more terrible is that by then, this evil thing will be a super disaster.
When the two went to collect their souls, the evil thing turned around and ran away. It had lived for hundreds of years. Although it had not yet been able to cultivate its body, it still had its mind. It thought that if these souls were released, these human celestial masters would be busy collecting their souls, and it could take the opportunity to escape. However, it did not expect that before it could move, a terrible whip blewed on its body, which was so painful that it was about to lose its soul!
After Lu Jingming and Lan Yuzhuo tied all their souls together, the black aura on the evil object almost dissipated and turned into an unknown object with a round mist, without any physical body, but every whip could suck a porcelain solid.
The two of them came over with a large bundle of souls. Seeing that the evil thing had been subdued by Si Yang, they couldn't move, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Si Yang, we have done it here."
Si Yang turned his head and glanced: "Have you found Jiang Meng?"
He said this, and the two of them who were busy binding their souls just now, who were afraid of running away, then they remembered that they did not seem to see Jiang Meng. Lu Jingming turned around and frowned: "These are all complete souls, not scattered souls."
Lan Yuzhuo was also a little confused: "What about Jiang Meng?" After saying that, he couldn't help asking the evil dumplings that were beaten by Si Yang: "Where are those soul scattered? Have you eaten the soul scattered?"
After Lan Yuzhuo asked, a gust of cold wind blew in the mountains and forests, and some slight hissing sounds.
Si Yang translated for the evil thing: "It said that it does not eat the soul-spun, it never eats only the soul-spun, and the soul-spun is not delicious."
Evil thing:...it's so unfair!
This time, everyone was in trouble again. Why was it so difficult to find those three souls?
Si Yang shook his head helplessly: "Wait." After that, he closed his eyes and directly released his spiritual sense to search the mountain.
The spiritual consciousness is both invisible and tangible. Although Lu Jingming and Lan Yuzhuo could not see it, they could clearly feel a powerful force sweeping through them the moment Si Yang let go of his spiritual consciousness. Just as the two were frightened by the feeling of that moment, Si Yang said: "Finally."
Lu Jingming hurriedly said, "Where is it?!"
Si Yang opened his eyes and turned to look in the direction of the stream: "Over there." The two hurriedly followed Si Yang and walked to the stream. Si Yang stopped, but they still didn't see Jiang Meng's three souls.
"Is Jiang Meng's three souls here? But Brother Si Yang, I didn't see anything."
Si Yang waved his hand and suddenly three transparent figures that were almost dissipated suddenly appeared in the middle of the stream that was still empty. Looking closely, they were indeed Jiang Meng's three souls. The three souls were like **, standing in a daze in the stream, allowing the stream to flow through his body. The continuous flowing stream not only washed away the three souls, but also took away the vitality that led the three souls into their bodies.
The three souls and seven souls are originally one, and each has an invisible pull. Although Jiang Meng lost one soul first, in this naturally formed pattern, as long as the person who knows Taoism moves a little, even if there is only one soul to pull, the remaining three souls and six spirits can be continuously attracted. With the continuous loss of vitality, the body's attraction to the soul gradually decreases. When the souls and spirits are completely separated and the vitality is dissipated, the person will naturally die.
Si Yang raised his hand and grabbed it out of thin air. A stone that was not as big as a palm flew out of the water. When Si Yang turned the stone over, the blood-red cinnabar on it was written with Jiang Meng's birth date.
Seeing this, Lan Yuzhuo said, "It turned out to be artificial, but Brother Si Yang, why can't we see even if we open our eyes? Is there any magic weapon here to cover it?"
Si Yang did not explain much, but said, "You should take a good look at the situation in this area."
Lan Yuzhuo subconsciously observed what Si Yang said, but Lu Jingming had already taken out the compass to investigate in various directions. The two of them observed for a while and spoke almost at the same time: "Eight Door Lock Array?"
I don’t know whether the trees on both sides of the stream were planted naturally invisibly or were deliberately guided by people who practice Buddhism. At first glance, it seems nothing, but some trees can accommodate one or two people through, while some are planted closely together and cannot pass by. There are not many small paths that can pass, just eight.
Lu Jingming looked at the compass and said, "These eight paths are exactly the right position in the eight gates. It would be impossible if it was not deliberately planted."
Si Yang nodded and said, "This stream flows through the middle, and the upper and lower roads connect Yin and Yang, and there are protection from the Eight Gate Arrays on both sides. The sun is not seen in the depths of the mountain forest for a long time. The big trees covering the sky and the sun are inevitably too gloomy over time. Therefore, this can be seen as the Yin and Yang road. On the Yin and Yang road, how can you two living people see ghosts? Especially the sky eyes that open with the help of external forces, it is normal to not see it. If you see it, it means that you are not far from death."
As soon as Si Yang finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew from the mountains, and goose bumps appeared on both of them.
Si Yang put the stone in Lu Jingming's hand, and handed the evil thing he was holding into Lan Yuzhuo's hand: "I think you can handle the subsequent matters by yourself, so I won't care."
Lu Jingming bowed deeply to Si Yang: "Thank you for your help. If it weren't for your help, I really don't know how this matter would end today." After Lu Jingming finished speaking, he said with some caution: "You have to bother you for a while. These souls need to be sent back as soon as possible."
Si Yang nodded and found a big stone casually to sit down. Lu Jingming began to send back the soul, a spell and a talisman, but there are at least hundreds of souls at present, and it may take some time. Seeing Lan Yuzhuo sealing the evil thing into a Yinmu card, Si Yang said, "The heartless stone was a good material for refining weapons just now. Go and collect it. If anyone in the Xuanmen knows how to refine weapons, he might be able to refine a useful magic weapon."
After Si Yang said this, Lan Yuzhuo naturally ran over and picked up all the broken stone statues before and hugged them: "Since it is the material for refining weapons, this thing was solved by Brother Si Yang, so it will naturally belong to Brother Si Yang."
Si Yang smiled and said, "You can hold it yourself, this thing is useless to me." Such materials can be said to be very common in the cultivation world. They are really not as good as Si Yang's eyes, not to mention that the high-level materials in his soul mansion are piled up like mountains, and these stones are too lazy to bend over if you pick them up for free.
Seeing that Si Yang didn't want it, Lan Yuzhuo took off the bag behind him and put the pieces of gravel into the bag. After finally stuffing them all in, he took out the talisman to ignite it.
Seeing that she was holding the ignited talisman to dispel the yin energy bit by bit, Si Yang couldn't help but look at the mountain where the yin energy was filled. In this way, it would be dispersed to the end of the year or month.
However, everyone has their own responsibilities, and Si Yang did not intend to intervene. However, looking at the thick fog-like yin energy, Si Yang suddenly thought of Lan Jinxiu. Then he took out a thousand-petal lotus-shaped spiritual jade from the soul mansion with a hand-sized shape.
As soon as the spirit jade was taken out, the yin energy in the entire mountain forest gathered in an instant. After a few breaths, all the yin energy in the entire mountain that did not belong here was sucked clean. The talisman Lan Yuzhuo was holding was not burned yet, and he looked at Si Yang stupidly.
Si Yang looked at the jade-colored jade lotus in his hand as if it was a little black stained, and he was silently wondering whether to make a formation to turn Yin into a demon. Although it was a little troublesome, it seemed a pity to die just like the demon-cultivation body that was rare in a thousand years.
The author has something to say: I want to write as well as possible every time I write an article so that everyone who reads it can like it, but it is difficult to talk about it. In the end, because of the changes, I deviate from the story I originally planned, and it made it beyond recognition.
So I want to write this article as a little willful, write the stories I want to write, and write about the suffering in my mind.
However, I still read everyone's ideas and opinions, because when writing articles, many of the inspirations come from readers' messages. Similarly, the motivation for writing articles also comes from you. Your viewing is the best support for me, and not finishing is the only reward I can do.
