Under everyone's extremely shocked gazes, the old Taoist suddenly sighed deeply:
"Yes, all of this is my fault. If I hadn't adopted that snake and that wild ghost back then, things wouldn't have developed to what they are today."
A hundred years ago, there was still an ordinary town at the foot of Kaiyuan Temple.
Hundreds of townspeople live here.
Because it is backed by mountains and the roads are impassable, it was not affected by the war at that time.
The townspeople live and work in peace and contentment, relying on the mountains and mountains. Although they are not rich, they can still have enough food and clothing.
You must know that in the war-torn times, those who did not die were already in the upper echelons of society.
But then, strange things began to happen in the town.
The townspeople who depend on the mountains often go hunting in the mountains in autumn to stock up on food for the next year.
I just don’t know since when, strange things started happening on the mountain.
Hunters who go hunting in the mountains often disappear for a few days without any reason, and then when they come back, their temperament and personality are completely different from before.
Some of them even forget their own names, and their relatives around them can't remember them either. They don't talk or eat, and they look like a living zombie.
At that time, the old man called it a lost soul.
One or two were just accidental and coincidental, but as time went by, more and more people like this happened, and the local townspeople realized something was wrong. They felt that something unclean must have come out of the mountains, so they asked Taoist priests to do something about it.
At that time, Buddhism was not very popular.
A shabby gymnasium can be found outside almost all such villages and towns.
At that time, there was a Taoist temple on the mountain in the town called Kaiyuan Temple.
"Kaiyuan Guan?"
Hearing this, Goatee was slightly startled: "Is it the predecessor of Kaiyuan Temple?"
They had long known that there was a Taoist temple here a long time ago, and that the Kaiyuan Temple was built by a monk for the purpose of trapping the ghost king in the well.
"Yes."
Wuchen nodded: "At that time, there was a master and three apprentices in the Taoist temple who were poor and poor. After receiving help from the townspeople, the Taoist monk took his three underage apprentices and went down the mountain to catch monsters."
"Is that demon the evil dragon that was cut off?"
The person asking the question was Qi Yufeng.
She was doubtful: "This evil dragon seems to be taking advantage of the situation to gain such great prestige. Moreover, a hundred years ago, he had to devour human souls himself. At that time, its cultivation level should be very average."
Bar?"
If the evil dragon's cultivation level was average at that time, and Taoist priests came down from the mountain to suppress it, it stands to reason that things should not have developed to the point where they are now.
"Yes, after the first division and three apprentices came down from the mountain, under the leadership of the villagers, they found the well, and forced the Yin snake hiding in the well out, suppressed it with the supreme Taoist method, and repaid the world at that time
A bright world."
"But just when Yin She was beaten to the point of dying, she was about to die suddenly."
"That Yin Snake actually left tears."
When Wuchen said this, he sighed deeply: "The Yin Snake shed tears, which touched the old Taoist's compassion, but he still planned to kill him, but before killing him, he still wanted to ask about the cause and effect, and help
The Yin Snake has settled its affairs."
But just when he took away his magical power and walked up to the dying Yin Snake, he planned to ask.
Unexpectedly, the Yin Snake actually gave a desperate blow and used its last strength to plunge its strong tail into the back of Lao Dao's head from behind, directly penetrating Lao Dao's head.
He also absorbed Lao Tao's essence on the spot, replenished his injuries, and slaughtered all the three remaining disciples of Lao Tao, as well as nearly a hundred townspeople who had gone up the mountain.
