"The land here is also very dry, how can grass grow?" Ye Xiaomeng wondered.

That only shows that these grasses do not survive on water, at least not on human water. ”

Ye Shaoyang bent down to pick a piece of grass, and bright red juice immediately oozed from the fracture, dipped a little with his hand, put it in his mouth and licked it, frowned, and said, "It's the taste of the Lechuan River!"

Ye Xiaomeng was shocked, "How is this possible, how can the Lechuan River flow to the world!"

Ye Shaoyang couldn't answer this question, and he was horrified in his heart, crushing the blades of grass in his palm, and the red juice flowed down like blood, looking very terrible.

"This grass is called the Grievance Grass of the Soul, it grows by the Lethe River, and it is specially used to absorb the grievances of the ghosts of the past, so that they can willingly cross the Naihe Bridge and drink the Meng Po soup......" Ye Shaoyang said in a deep voice, "The grievances absorbed by these grasses, after accumulating to a certain extent, form a resentment fruit, and the ghosts eat it, and they don't even need to be transformed, it is directly a ghost power cultivation, so Yin Si has a ghost king vein to take care of the banks of the Lechuan River, so as to avoid the grievances of the Soul Grass from being eaten by the lonely souls and wild ghosts." ”

After hearing what he said, Ye Xiaomeng said in a daze: "You mean, this kind of grass grows here, it is for people...... No, it's for ghosts?"

Seeing him nodding, he said again: "But there are no past grievances here, and there is no Lechuan water, how can this grass survive?"

"I don't know. Ye Shaoyang looked around and said, "But don't forget, the entire market town has been suppressed by the formation, and I can't feel the existence of any evil qi now, I can only judge that the valley we see now is definitely not what it really looks like." ”

Ye Xiaomeng frowned, and also looked left and right, thinking that according to what he said, what should the real appearance of the valley be?

"Now...... What should I do?" Ye Xiaomeng asked in a slightly weak voice.

"That's it, keep going. Ye Shaoyang smiled at her, "Are you scared? ”

Ye Xiaomeng shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly: "I was the main hit before, there is a kind of responsibility and responsibility, but now that I know that you are Ye Shaoyang, I will rely on all kinds of things, and my courage will become smaller, just follow you." ”

Ye Shaoyang scratched his head, not quite understanding this change in thinking.

As we go deeper and deeper, there are more and more Soul Grasses. Moreover, Ye Shaoyang noticed that the Soul Grass mainly grew on both sides of a stream without water, and he was even more puzzled in his heart. At that moment, he stepped all the way from the grass without pity, and when he looked back, there were blood-colored footprints, which was very shocking.

Ye Xiaomeng introduced as he walked, he and his father came here once, and everything was normal in the valley at that time, and there was still water in the stream, but there was no soul grass on both sides. As for when the grass grows, no one knows, after all, it is too remote here, and there are no villages nearby, so no one usually comes.

The valley winds along for a mile or two, and at the end of it is an open clearing with a hill on the opposite side.

Ye Xiaomeng pointed to the mountain peak and said: "That Taoist temple is on this mountain, I have only been up once, but there is nothing." ”

When the two came to the bottom of the mountain, they could see layers of stone steps, spiraling upward. Ye Xiaomeng told Ye Shaoyang that when this hill first appeared, these stone steps were there.

Ye Shaoyang looked up at the mountain road paved with stone steps, and suddenly had a familiar feeling, frowned and looked at it, a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, he suddenly thought of something, and was stunned on the spot, a few seconds later, he rushed to the side of the road, looking for it in a pile of dry weeds, and there was nothing.

Isn't that wrong?

Ye Shaoyang searched for memories, compared with the hill in front of him, groped in the grass, and suddenly found a stone tablet covered by dry grass, and a little head emerged in the soil.

Hurriedly squatted down, picked up the weeds with his hands, took out the Maoshan Soul Killing Nail from his belt, and dug the soil around the stone stele.

The soil is dry and cracked and soft, a dig is a piece, as the soil is constantly dug out, the stele is also exposed in its entirety, there are some notches on the front, the red paint peels off on it, only a little faint trace remains, but the handwriting can still be recognized, it is three seal characters: Qingtianguan.

Sure enough, this is the place. Ye Shaoyang took a hard breath, the Taoist temple he saw in the Heavenly Master Card turned out to be real, and it was in his hometown, in this haunted valley!

"It's weird, Brother Shaoyang, how do you know that there is a stone tablet here?" Ye Xiaomeng asked in surprise.

Ye Shaoyang told the truth in a few words, and Ye Xiaomeng was even more surprised when she heard it.

Ye Shaoyang calmed down instead, and said: "It's nothing magical, this Taoist temple was obviously built by Ye Fashan after returning to his hometown, he used his divine sense to reflect the real existence of the mountain and Taoist temple in the Heavenly Master card, I just don't know why he did this, or rather, is there anything special in this Taoist temple?"

After a moment of silence in front of the stone monument, Ye Shaoyang took Ye Xiaomeng up the mountain. Arriving at the location of the mountain gate in his memory, Ye Shaoyang stopped for a while, and did not find the mountain gate, thinking about it, the mountain gate is wooden, which is different from the stone stele, and after more than a thousand years, no matter how hard the wood is, it should be damaged.

All the way to the top, I only saw some stone wall foundations, bluestone slabs on the ground, and dead grass growing everywhere.

Ye Shaoyang stayed in front of the foyer for a while, and then according to the position in his memory, he walked through the two courtyards, climbed the stairs, and walked into the position of the main hall, where he could see several spiritual platforms, but the statues were gone.

Ye Shaoyang remembered what Ye Bo said, and felt a little strange: In his memory, there is still a statue of Sanqing God in the main hall, why is it that only the stone statue of Ye Fashan himself has been preserved until now, but the statue of Sanqing God is gone? Is it because of the different materials?

With his memory, Ye Shaoyang came to the spiritual platform belonging to the statue of Ye Fashan, stood silent for a while, and asked Ye Xiaomeng to learn that the box containing the jade dust was found in the backyard of the Taoist temple, so he bypassed the main hall and walked into the backyard patio along a wall base.

On the edge of the patio grows a huge ginkgo tree, with intertwined roots and dense foliage. Ye Xiaomeng looked at it and said curiously: "It's strange, it's been a drought for so long, even if this tree doesn't die, it shouldn't grow so well, as if it is not affected by drought at all." ”

As he spoke, he plucked a leaf, and as soon as he got his hands on it, the leaf withered and oozing white slime.

"This is Yin Wood. Ye Shaoyang looked up at the huge canopy, and explained with a solemn face:

"Ginkgo, growing at the intersection of Huangquan Road, seeing the yin wind and moving, reminding the Yin God, there are ghosts coming, so it is called the Yin letter tree, which means the letter of the yin qi, because of this characteristic, it was later brought to the yang by some mages to plant, cut ginkgo wood to test the ghost, as if to test the poison with silver, over time, adapt to the breath of the yang, and grow into another variety, that is, ginkgo. ”
