Urban Demon Emperor Chapter 373 The Mysterious Wandering Daoist
Just when the officers were frightened and overwhelmed, a black mist suddenly shrouded from the top of the mountain, drowning all the officers in the village who were caught off guard.
The black mist came and went as fast as it came, and in just half a pillar of incense it was gone, and the servants who had been submerged in the black mist reappeared in the village.
It's just that those servants are no longer alive, they are all like the villagers in the village, all the flesh and blood are gone, only skin and bones remain, and everyone's expression is extremely frightened, as if they have experienced something extremely terrible before they die.
The officers did not return for a few days, and there was no news of them, and the county commander immediately knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly sent his cronies to investigate.
After receiving the frightening news from his cronies, the county commander seemed to be ten years old, thousands of lives in a village, and more than 100 soldiers died, so he could be regarded as the head of the county order, so the county commander immediately packed up the soft belongings and left with the whole family.
After hearing about this bizarre and strange incident, several county commanders who came to take up their posts sent people to investigate the village where all the people had died.
But no matter how many people went, no one could come back alive in the end, and over time, even those later county orders no matter how much they didn't believe in evil, they had to admit that the place was indeed evil, and no one dared to start investigating.
But because of this, the legend of the ghost village has spread among the people, and many good deeds have depicted the ghost village as if it were a hell on earth.
Just when the rumors were out of control, and the people within a radius of hundreds of miles were in danger, and they were all thinking of moving to other places, a middle-aged Taoist priest who claimed to be a traveling Taoist from the Kunlun Holy Land appeared, and after identifying himself to the county order, he said that he had secretly investigated the matter of the ghost village, and he could take action to solve the matter.
The current county magistrate has already been troubled by the ghost village incident, and now that he heard that someone can solve the matter, he is naturally like a drowning person grasping a life-saving straw, and he nodded and agreed without thinking about it.
In the following few days, under the command of the Youfang Daoist, the county order mobilized all manpower and material resources to try his best to meet the needs of the Youfang Daoist.
The Taoist priest of Youfang really did not break his promise, and after seven days of preparation, he finally opened the altar under the expectation of the county order.
On that day, it is said that the originally cloudless clear sky, under the order of the Taoist priest of Youfang, the clouds rose in the northwest in an instant, the fog rushed to the southeast, and the sky and thunder from all directions gathered on the mountain next to the ghost village.
Under the gaze of countless onlookers, a series of thunderstorms fell on the top of the mountain, a total of 7749 splits, and the original lush vegetation of the top of the mountain was directly razed to the ground.
And every time a thunderbolt is struck, even from such a distance, the onlookers at the foot of the mountain can still clearly hear the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howls, which is so terrible that everyone who hears it is terrified.
After the thunder was gone, a thick black mist suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain that had been razed to the ground, enveloping the entire mountain.
Seeing this scene, all the onlookers were taken aback, originally there were many people who came to watch with an attitude of watching the excitement, they didn't believe that there were really ghosts and gods in this world, as for the legend of the ghost village, it was just a rumor.
But after seeing this large cloud of strange black mist, especially hearing the ghost cries one after another, those who didn't believe it didn't dare to refute it at all.
But no one turned around and ran away, and after seeing the skills of the You Fang Dao people, they believed that the You Fang Dao people would definitely be able to clean up all these demons and monsters.
In fact, just as everyone had guessed, just as the black mist began to spread beyond the top of the mountain, and wanted to rush down the mountain, the You Fang Daoist struck again.
After reciting an ancient and obscure mantra, there was a silver-white film of light like a cage when You Fang Daoist waved his hand, directly blocking all the black fog in it, no matter how the black fog inside collided, there was no sign of escape.
Subsequently, You Fang Daoist explained to everyone that with his current cultivation, he couldn't take away all the tens of thousands of ghosts here, so he could only seal them all here first, let them fend for themselves, or wait until his cultivation was refined, and then take away all these yin things.
Naturally, no one will raise objections to this explanation of the You Fang Daoist, if it weren't for someone's action, maybe those sealed ghosts would have rushed out to poison the world.
Although it has not been completely eradicated now, it is good to be able to seal these evil spirits and prevent them from running out to cause trouble again.
After settling the matter of the ghost village, You Fang Daoist left unexpectedly, and no one knew his name from beginning to end.
And with the passage of time, at the beginning, people often mentioned this matter after dinner, but when fewer and fewer people knew about it, this matter was gradually forgotten by the world.
Of course, even if it is not very clear, people in the vicinity know that the mountain is a little unusual, so naturally no one will rush into it.
Because of this, no one knew that the ghosts sealed on the top of the mountain not only did not fend for themselves, but because of the special feng shui pattern here, the ghosts were nourished and became more and more powerful, and the wandering Taoist never appeared again.
It's just that nothing weird has ever happened again, and no one has paid attention to it anymore.
After listening to Scarface recount the ins and outs of this mountain, Wang Yue's eyebrows furrowed and he didn't react.
Seeing that Wang Yue didn't move, Scarface felt uneasy in his heart, these things he said were also inquired about by him from other ghost cultivators, as for whether it was true or not, how could he know, he didn't know where he was a thousand years ago.
After a moment of silence, Wang Yue suddenly smiled contemptuously: "Heh, interesting, are you from Kunlun?" Maybe there's a chance to meet for a while. ”
In the story narrated by Scarface, the Daoist said that he didn't have the strength to subdue all the ghost cultivators here, but Wang Yue didn't believe it at all.
To attract the existence of heavenly thunder, at least it has to be cultivated during the foundation building period, how can it be impossible to clean up a few little ghosts.
What's more, those little ghosts at the beginning were just formed, and they didn't have any cultivation yet, even if there were tens of thousands, they were not to be afraid at all.
In that case, why did the Daoist choose to go to great lengths to lay down a sealing formation here, instead of directly killing these little ghosts.
Wang Yue couldn't figure out what that person's motive was for a while, but no matter what, that person's purpose was definitely not as simple as eliminating harm for the people, and he didn't even think about really killing these little ghosts.
Because, if he really has this thought, even if it is really as he said, because of poor cultivation, he can't kill demons, but he should at least take action to break the feng shui pattern here, not to mention a cultivator, even anyone who knows a little about feng shui can do it.
And as a cultivator, it was impossible for that wandering Daoist not to know what the consequences would be if so many ghosts were locked up in such a place.
"Uh...... Senior ......"
Seeing that Wang Yue finally made a move, Scarface was bold and cautiously asked, "I have already said everything I know, can you let me go?" ”
Now that the seal has been broken by Wang Yue, Scarface has been locked up for hundreds of years, he has long been fascinated by the outside world, if it weren't for Wang Yue standing here, he would have left this ghost place a long time ago.
When Wang Yue heard this, an expression that seemed to be a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Oh? When did I say I was going to let you go? ”
"You!"
Scarface was suddenly in a hurry, but there was nothing he could do about Wang Yue, who made himself inferior to others.
After bowing his head and thinking for a moment, Scarface gritted his teeth and pleaded in a low voice: "Senior, if you have any other orders, please just give orders, as long as it is something that Scarface can do, I will never shirk half a sentence, I just ask my predecessor to give me a way to live." ”
Scarface used to be an iron-clad hero, but in the past few hundred years, he has already been polished by the cruel world, although face is very important, but if even his life is gone, what is the use of face.
The tragic situation of the other four ghost kings just now, Scarface still remembers it vividly, and he doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of those four people.
Wang Yue didn't have time to go around in circles with this little ghost, so he asked straight to the point: "The five of you should have your own territory here before, right?" ”
"That's right, this mountain top is just such a place, everyone has to cultivate, and the yin qi is naturally very nervous, so we divided this place into five parts, and each person occupies one place."
Wang Yue nodded and continued to ask, "Where is Han Song's territory?" ”
When Scarface heard this, he immediately got up from the ground, respectfully moved out of the way, and made a gesture of please: "It's in the middle area, if you're interested, senior, I'll have you to go." ”
Scarface didn't know what Wang Yue was asking about this, but he didn't want to know that if the seal was still in place and they couldn't get out, he would still be salivating over a piece of land here.
But now that the seal is gone, then he has no interest in this place, let alone Han Song's territory, even if Wang Yue wants to take the entire mountain for himself, he will not have the slightest complaint.
Scarface led the way, and Wang Yue followed him quickly to an area located in the center of the mountaintop, although it was only three miles away from Xia Wei's territory of Wang Lao Wu, but the intensity of the yin qi around him was very different.
