Chapter 730: The Deng Family's Ancestral Grave
On the way to Tingshui Town, as his hometown approached, the past kept coming to his heart, and Deng An's mood became heavy for it, and Ah Yun seemed to be infected, and he rarely spoke to him, only occasionally asking about the old things of Ju and the names of places along the way.

After Deng An found out, he couldn't help but ask the reason. Ah Yun just said that she was a little upset, as if she had seen everything here. However, when Deng An talked about the geography near Tingshui Town, she didn't have the slightest impression and shook her head in denial.
Seeing her gradually showing a painful expression, Deng An was worried that something had happened, so he had to change the topic and tell her about his return to his hometown when he was a child. The experience of childhood, often accompanied by laughter and happiness, Ah Yun gradually became relaxed, and there was no struggle in her expression.
When Tingshui Town gradually looked into sight, Deng An's mood fell into a heavy mood again, and when Ah Yun saw this, she became a guest-oriented, and said a few words of relief from time to time, but it couldn't change anything.
At this time, the scale of Tingshui Town has not changed much.
At least on the surface, everything remains the same as when Deng An left.
However, with his strong telekinesis, Deng An could see at a glance that Tingshui Town was actually loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and in some renovated buildings, there were teams of strong men living there, and the ancestral house of the Deng family was like the Great Inner Forbidden Palace, which looked very strict at night.
Obviously, Tingshui Town is of great significance to Anguo.
However, the townspeople did not seem to be affected in any way, and in the night, the lights were still on in the original inn, and several merchants were talking loudly.
Because of the almost three watches, these voices traveled far and wide.
For Ah Yun and Ah Yun, there is almost no need to use their own cultivation.
"Have you heard, something strange has happened in the Imperial Tomb? ”
"Shhh ”
"Brother Xu said very well, it is a great disrespect to the royal family for us to openly discuss royal affairs, and if the mausoleum guards in the city hear it, they will definitely be held responsible. You and I should know this kind of thing in our hearts, and don't discuss it again. Besides, Taizu is known as an old immortal, and he has a lot of dealings with immortals, no matter what strange things happen to the imperial tomb, it is nothing. ”
“”
Soon, several businessmen changed the subject to discuss the rise of power.
Deng An couldn't help frowning slightly, and didn't search for their souls, the ancestral tomb of the Deng family was not far away, there was no need to kill again, as for what happened, we would soon know.
According to the memory, Deng An and Ah Yun quickly flew to the ancestral grave of the Deng family.
Since Deng Hong established Anguo, the ancestral tomb of the Deng family has been designated as a royal cemetery, specifically to bury the clansmen of Deng Zhongshu. As soon as he left Tingshui Town, he almost didn't have to deliberately look for it, and found the ancestral grave, only to see that within dozens of miles of Fang Yuan, there were pines and cypresses all over the place.
The perimeter of the cemetery has been enclosed by a wall. Around the cemetery, there are four ** courtyard groups, inhabited by tomb keepers and mausoleum guards. If it is a major sacrificial activity, except for the Deng clan and the tomb keeper, other people are absolutely not allowed to step into the cemetery.
For Deng An and Ah Yun, this rule is useless. However, they did not rush in, because on the surrounding walls, some traces of the existence of the formation were found.
When it was confirmed that they could not pose a threat, they carefully flew over the wall.
As for who laid down this array, Deng An first thought of Qin Hongling.
There was relatively little news about Qin Hongling, and he didn't bother to inquire about it, in that monk's introduction, it seemed that she still lived in Wangxian City, but this was just a rumor, because since Deng Hong's death, she had never appeared again, and even the Lord of An Guo did not know her whereabouts.
When Deng Hong was alive, Qin Hongling was regarded as the queen, but she lived a simple life, never interfered in national affairs, and did not take care of the affairs of the harem, because she did not give birth, Deng Hong's successor had no direct blood relationship with her, but their reverence for her was not inferior to Deng Hong.
The reason for this, of course, is that she is a monk.
In the folklore of the Anguo people, she is a fairy who came to the mortal world.
Of course, for that monk, there was some basis for the relevant rumors, because the patriarch of the monk had met Qin Hongling by chance fifty years ago and had received some guidance. According to the inference of their patriarch, her cultivation at that time had already reached the foundation building.
After Deng An entered the cemetery, he deliberately carefully observed these formations.
It may be that Qin Hongling's formation attainments are average, and it can only play a certain role in blocking some low-level cultivators. However, an ordinary royal cemetery, except for the funerary goods in it, which can arouse the covetousness of tomb robbers, it is generally impossible for cultivators to be interested.
Deng An followed the memory and flew to the location of his parents' grave.
Suddenly, he and Ah Yun both sensed several faint fluctuations in the power of the underworld. Thinking of what they had just heard, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and they had a tacit understanding of their own breath.
Soon, they came to a place among the pines and cypresses.
Due to the claustrophobic environment and the fact that there are many graves, compared to ordinary mass graves, the quality of the yin qi here is obviously much higher, and when they found out, they couldn't help but be secretly surprised, and they couldn't help but quietly take a few breaths, but considering the fluctuation of the underworld power crescendo, they became extremely cautious.
However, when they discovered the source, their hanging hearts were relieved again.
At this time, next to a new mausoleum in front of them, there were more than a dozen meditation cultivators concentrating on Na Meditation, and most of them seemed to have just entered the path of embarkation. Compared to Deng An and Ah Yun, their cultivation was too weak, and they didn't find any meditation close to it.
Seeing these unfamiliar guests, Deng Anxin couldn't help but feel a trace of anger, although he was also a meditative cultivator, and he also knew that it was not easy to meditate, but it was difficult for him to accept allowing them to move around in his ancestral tomb and disturb the clansmen. Just as he was about to warn, he suddenly stopped again, because he and Ah Yun soon discovered that they were not normal meditation practices.
When these meditation practices are practiced, it is as if they are performing a task.
Whenever the yin qi in their position was diluted, they quickly moved to another position, and there was no communication between them, but the location they chose seemed to be very tacit, and there was never a conflict because of this, as if they had discussed it beforehand. However, the changes in yin qi, don't say that they, even Deng An and others can't accurately predict them.
Deng An has the Bone Banner Hundred Soul Banner, and has been in contact with the Heavenly Demons, so he is not unfamiliar with this kind of scene, and he guessed it at the first time, these meditation cultivations are controlled.
However, since the destruction of the town ghost gate, there are no more sects and families that deal with ghosts nearby, and moreover, the town ghost gate controls ghosts, mostly relying on soul flags to raise ghost jars and other utensils, and these meditation practices in front of them have greater autonomy, which is similar to ghost slaves.
When Deng An was puzzled, he wanted to capture one and forcibly search for souls.
At this time, a very light black shadow quickly swept over the wall of the cemetery and came to the vicinity of the mausoleum. Those few cultivators didn't seem to notice the comer, and they were still absorbing the yin qi, however, there was a trace of struggle and panic in their expressions, and the speed of absorbing the yin qi was obviously accelerated several times, as if they missed this opportunity and would not encounter it again.
A moment later, the dark shadow was illuminated by the ghostly fire.
It was a young man who looked a little simple, with a square face and thick eyebrows, a broad forehead, and very thick hair, but he was neglected to comb and looked a little messy, much like a peasant.
However, he was not an ordinary man, but a monk.
Moreover, his cultivation has already laid the foundation, at least in Anguo, there are few opponents.
"A bunch of garbage, I've wasted days here. When the monk arrived, he coldly glanced at those meditation cultivators who were desperately absorbing yin qi, and he should have felt very dissatisfied, and after a reprimand, his palm reached out on his waist and took out a jar-shaped spiritual weapon.
If you look at it only from the appearance, it is difficult to distinguish how it is different from the ghost tank of the town ghost gate.
However, Deng An knew a lot about raising ghost jars, and its role was limited to collecting ghosts and low-level spiritual cultivators, and providing them with a cultivation environment, however, when those spiritual cultivators were accepted, he found that this spiritual weapon seemed to have a certain effect.
Thinking of the performance of the low-level meditation cultivators just now, Deng An was even more convinced of this.
It's just that Deng An still doesn't understand why the young monk would do this more. Because with his cultivation, there is no need for this at all, among the monks, there are many vicious spells to deal with the meditation, if it is really difficult to subdue, it is a big deal to erase his memory.
Judging by the monk's actions, it doesn't seem like a good person.
Soon, the young monk put away the spiritual weapon. However, he did not rush to leave, but walked around the neighborhood, and it was not long before he was back in front of the new mausoleum.
"That's it, although it will be ridiculed by the same door after it is passed out, but it seems that this kind of corpse is not encountered at any time, and it is a big deal to exchange it with the senior sisters. The monk looked at the mound with a hint of embarrassment, and then muttered to himself, before he made up his mind and took out a flying sword.
When Deng An and Ah Yun were puzzled by the young monk's actions and words, he quickly raised his sword and dug down towards the mound in front of him. Even though Deng An still didn't understand the other party's true intentions, he was his own clan in the tomb, so how could he allow the other party to blaspheme.
A wave of power popped out from his flying fingers, and the flying sword was instantly broken into several pieces.
"Who is it?" the young monk couldn't help but be startled when he saw this. However, he soon understood that someone had made a secret move, and with a fierce light in his eyes, he looked around.
Deng An and Ah Yun flew out of a pine and cypress together.
Since when they appeared, they were still hiding their cultivation, and when those monks smelled a trace of the smell of meditation from the oncoming yin qi, they couldn't help but become ecstatic: "Haha, it turns out that they are two guys who are not afraid of death, you don't know that I am a guest star of meditation."
However, the ecstasy on his face instantly turned to horror. Immediately, he threw his backhand, and a flash of fire shot out, and he didn't look at the result, and flew away outside the cemetery.
