Journey to Yumiao Mountain Chapter 52: Going to Jade Temple Mountain
Before dawn the next day, Jin Qiu knocked on Wan Chan's door. Wan Chan opened the door and saw her holding a box in her hand with a smile on her face.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Jin Qiu nodded and signaled Wan Jun to let her in. After the two entered the room, Wan Jun closed the door.
After entering the house, Jinqiu put the box in her hand on the table. When Wan Jun came over, she saw her opening the box to take something. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a plain skirt among them.
His eyelids twitched suddenly, remembering the plan Jin Qiu mentioned yesterday, and he almost couldn't help but want to turn around and leave, but Jin Qiu happened to turn his head and looked at him with a pair of smiling eyes. Wan Xun was immediately in a dilemma.
He stepped forward and said with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "Miss Jinqiu is really well prepared."
Jin Qiu pretended not to understand the meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment. In order for the plan to succeed, I naturally have to prepare more."
She placed the items in the box on the table, one by one, and swept them over at night. They were all items used by women to dress up. Jinqiu had prepared everything, including lipstick in several colors.
As if showing off a trophy, Jin Qiu had a smile on her face. She looked at Wan Jun teasingly and said with a smile: "In order to better assist you, I have made a lot of preparations. Don't worry, I will definitely dress you up."
Pretty.”
She said the four words "pretty" with an emphasis. After a long pause, she finally sat down at the table helplessly.
At night, the bright moon hangs in the sky. The moon is as round as a jade plate. Today is a rare full moon. Under the bright moon, I can barely see anything on the forest path, and only two figures are seen walking on the mountain road.
Both of them were wearing black cloaks, but the genders under the cloaks could be seen from their swaying figures. They were clearly two women walking on the mountain road.
The woman walking in front was Jin Qiu. She was dressed as usual, while the person behind her was dressed exquisitely.
Wearing plain clothes, with a cluster of orchids embroidered stitch by stitch, the cool temperament exuding from her body is breathtaking. "She" has a beautiful face, unparalleled in the world, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, and her lips are like sand.
The place is secluded, quiet and otherworldly.
The cold moonlight fell on "her" face, illuminating those calm and gentle black eyes, as calm and unpredictable as the deep sea.
Wan Jun's mood is very complicated at this moment. The clothes on his body fit him better than expected. Even though he is much taller than the average woman, the clothes Jin Qiu prepared still fit him very well and covered up his male figure.
The large frame reveals a beauty like icebergs and snow lotuses.
But this fit made him feel a little uncomfortable.
At first, Jin Qiu wanted to dress him up in the Wen Feng direction, but his face showed a chill even in the pinkest of clothes, so Jin Qiu had to give up this idea and chose someone more suitable for him.
of.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, watching Jinqiu gradually soften his face with each stroke, the originally feminine face no longer looked masculine. Looking at himself in the mirror, Wan Chan suddenly felt
Initiated to stay.
He remembered that dream.
The girl whose face he could never see in the dream was wearing a pink dress and casual double braids, smiling wantonly among the flowers, on the street, and in the sunshine.
He had never been able to see that face clearly, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not get closer to the girl. But when he looked at himself in the mirror, he suddenly had a strange feeling.
The person in the dream seemed to have a face, a little more immature and more smiley than him, but not much different.
Wan Jun was silent.
So was I really a woman in my previous life?
Thinking about it this way, it seems that pretending to be a woman is not so difficult to accept. At least this wonderful experience has solved one of Wan's worries.
Afterwards, they followed the plan and Jinqiu took him to Yumiao Mountain after nightfall.
There is a barrier near Yumiao Mountain, which is basically difficult for mortals to approach. If a cultivator does not find the correct entrance, he will be dragged into a trap. Therefore, when he walked nearby, Jin Qiu carefully warned him not to act rashly after entering the mountain.
.
Jin Qiu said that after entering the barrier, he entered the range of the Earth Mother Empress's perception, and every move he made would be monitored, so Wan Jun must not reveal any flaws.
Wearing the black robe given by Jinqiu, the two of them walked on the mountain road, speechless to each other.
When the bright moon rose to the sky, buildings appeared in front of us. Pine trees were planted on both sides of the mountain road steps. Above the steps, pavilions and pavilions stood staggered. They were as ethereal as a dream in the moonlight. When the two walked
As we entered, bells rang out one after another, resounding throughout the Jade Temple Mountain.
Hearing the unsuitable ringing of the bell, Wan Jun's heart tightened. He subconsciously wanted to hold the sword at his waist, but at this moment he was wearing a dress and did not carry a sword. He remembered Jin Qiu's instructions when he went up the mountain, so he restrained himself.
The impulse in my heart did not reveal any flaws.
Jinqiu was also a little surprised at the same time. She raised her head, looked into the building, and murmured: "I just ate it yesterday... Could it be that I really want it so much?"
She was silent, tilted her head and whispered: "Let's go, the Earth Mother is waiting for us."
Wan Jun's face could not be seen clearly under the shadow of his cloak. He nodded and followed Jin Qiu through the door.
When he left, he looked up and saw that the plaque on the mountain gate had three big characters "Yumiao Mountain" written on it.
Entering the mountain gate, the scene in front of you suddenly turned sideways. Different from the pavilions and pavilions you saw outside, the inside looked like an ordinary temple. In the wide Buddhist hall, several Buddha statues of different shapes stood above it, but the Buddha statue was not
No one I have ever met is a goddess-like figure.
The Buddha statue is very beautifully carved. The goddess's clothes are flying, or she is standing, or sitting cross-legged, or flying... her movements are vivid, and people can't help but marvel at the perfection of this statue. But the only thing strange is that these
None of the goddess statues have faces.
Wan Zhen's eyes under his cloak swept over these statues. These goddess statues did not have carved facial features, but they gave him a feeling of being watched. He couldn't help but start to think about the relationship between these goddess statues and the Mother Goddess of the Land.
Jinqiu took him to the largest statue of the goddess in the middle, knelt on the futon and waved towards the statue. After standing up, he clasped his hands together and said: "Mother of the Earth, Lady Xin has brought you a new one.
Sacrifice.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the statue of the goddess began to behave strangely. Under the gaze of the two of them, the Buddha statue seemed to come alive. From the beginning, the posture of sitting cross-legged began to move little by little. Finally, the statue of the goddess stood up.
body.
The statue is twenty feet tall. It sits cross-legged in a fashionable and carefree manner. But when it stands up, it is as tall as the room. Its head touches the roof. It can only lower its head and look down. It has a face without features.
Facing the two of them, it was like a big mountain pressing down, with a sense of oppression.
Wan Jun remained unmoved, but Jin Qiu stood up and walked to him, lifted his cloak, and revealed his face underneath.
Jinqiu shouted to the statue: "Mother of the Earth, this is the woman who has been specially found for you by the Faithful Lady. The most beautiful woman in the city, if you eat her soul, you will definitely have a peerless appearance."
Jin Qiu said that the true body of the Earth Mother is hidden in these statues. If the person killed is not the true body, there is no point. It can attach to other things and escape at any time. Therefore, if you want to kill with one blow, just
Its true identity must be revealed.
What the Earth Mother is most interested in is beautiful women. It changes their appearance by devouring the souls of these women. The more beautiful the women, the more it likes them.
The purpose is to kill it at the moment when it is attracted by Wan Jun's appearance and relaxes its vigilance.
To be honest, this plan is very risky, and Jin Qiu is not sure whether it will succeed, but they have reached this point and they can no longer turn back. All they can do now is believe in themselves.
The statue seemed to be attracted by Wan Zhen, and lowered its head little by little. Its head was extremely heavy, and it brought a large shadow when it fell. The face without facial features was getting closer and closer. If anyone else had been scared, their feet would have been weak.
But Wan Jun's expression remained as usual, and he faced that face without fear.
Finally, the end landed less than a foot above Wan Chan's head, as if he was sizing Wan Chan carefully. At such a close distance, just a little lower could crush the two of them to death.
Jin Qiu was extremely nervous, but she didn't dare to show any flaws. She looked at Wan Jun, who was even more indifferent, as if this was not a life and death situation, but a bird on the tree when she was walking on the street.
She somewhat admired this young man's determination.
For a long time, Jinqiu felt it was difficult to breathe, and then the statue finally moved. It moved its head, raised it and then stopped in mid-air. The candlelight shone on its stone face, and suddenly a figure appeared on its face.
A pale face.
Wan Jun saw that face at a glance, but he couldn't tell what that face looked like. Every moment and every second, the facial features on the face were changing, as if countless people's faces were appearing in front of him.
But when he looked carefully, he realized that it was just the facial features that were constantly changing.
But no matter how it changes, what is revealed is a woman's face, which is different from what Jinqiu said about only seeking beauty. It often changes into an ordinary or ugly face, as if it was the face that already existed from the beginning.
A woman fell in front of Wan Zhen. She was dressed in white, almost incorporeal and a bit nihilistic. She looked at Wan Zhen with a joyful smile on her face.
"You, you are..." She smiled and stretched out her hand to Wan Jun, as if she wanted to touch his cheek, "the most perfect face."
The woman came closer little by little, but Wan Jun didn't move. He looked at the woman and remembered the story Jin Qiu told.
In the past, the wars between mortals were very cruel. Many people died almost every day. Men died on the battlefield, and women were robbed by bandits. The women were humiliated and committed suicide with great resentment. Their
The resentment gathered together and turned into evil spirits, killing all the bandits.
But even if the bandit is dead, the evil spirit has not dispersed. It stays on the mountain and kills all the men passing by day after day. Until now, after eating too many people, it gave birth to spiritual wisdom.
Start chasing new goals.
It wants to become a human being, an extremely beautiful woman.
pity.
The long sword suddenly appeared in his hand and pierced the woman's body. The transparent body was pierced from side to side, but no blood flowed out. Only a few wisps of black smoke floated out.
The woman who was caught off guard let out a scream, the sound was like tearing someone's eardrums apart. Wan Jin couldn't prevent it. He had already retreated in time, but the sonic attack still hurt him.
Blood flowed out of his ears. Wan Jun took a deep breath. There was a roar in his ears. He saw Jin Qiu's mouth opening and closing, shouting something at him, but Wan Jun heard nothing.
Seeing the woman rushing towards her with waving claws, Wan Jun was not afraid at all and rushed towards her with a long sword in hand. This chapter has been completed!
