"Senior, it's already very late now. It will probably be dark by the time we arrive at Yulong Lake."

Ye Qing said to Mr. Xiang beside him: "Xiaojun Mountain will be more dangerous at night. Why don't we wait until tomorrow morning before setting off?"

"You don't need to call me senior, just call me Mr. Xiang!" Mr. Xiang smiled gently: "Don't worry, there won't be any danger as long as I'm here."

"Hehe, little brother, Mr. Xiang's methods are beyond your imagination, so just rest assured!" Behind him, Granny Snake gave a sweet smile.

"If you say that, I'm even more worried!" Ye Qing complained in his heart, but he was wise and did not continue to ask.

At the foot of Xiaojun Mountain, everyone suddenly stopped. Mr. Xiang touched his goat's beard and walked around, sometimes closing his eyes, sometimes looking far away, sometimes meditating, and sometimes mumbling words.

"Master Xiang, what are you doing?" Ye Qing asked curiously.

Chilong, whose hair and beard were all red, replied: "I'm surveying the Feng Shui terrain!"

"Feng shui terrain?" Ye Qing was stunned, could it be said that this world also has the concept of feng shui?

I saw Mr. Xiang suddenly opening his eyes and taking three steps forward. These three steps seemed to have some kind of magical power. Each step was more mysterious than the last. The third step fell as if it had landed on a certain node.

There was a slight tremor for no reason, and the breeze came slowly, surrounding Mr. Xiang, and it was mysterious and unusual.

At this time, Mr. Xiang took out a palm-sized incense burner out of thin air. The incense burner seemed to be made of some kind of wood. It was dark black and exuded a faint and cold atmosphere.

Putting the incense burner on the ground, Mr. Xiang produced three more long incense sticks with bright colors for no reason. He lit them immediately. As the three incense sticks were lit, a faint fragrance spread into Ye Qing's nose. Ye Qing felt his whole body clear.

Even my mind is a bit clearer and sharper.

After lighting three sticks of incense, Mr. Xiang held the incense in both hands and raised it above his head. He first bowed to the sky: "I respect all gods and Buddhas, bless me with unparalleled luck!"

Then, Mr. Xiang bowed to the ground and said, "I respect the ghosts and gods of Fengdu, please bless me and ward off evil spirits!"

Finally, Mr. Xiang paid his respects to Xiaojunshan: "Three respects to the mountain spirits, please bless me with no illness or disaster!"

After praying, Master Xiang respectfully inserted the three incense sticks into the incense burner. After waiting for a while, seeing that nothing happened, Master Xiang took a deep breath, with a smile on his face, and reached out to pick up the incense burner: "Okay, let's go.

Bar!"

Zheng Tianyuan and others did not say anything, as if they had great trust in Master Xiang, and walked straight towards Xiaojun Mountain, looking calm and relaxed.

"This..." Ye Qing looked confused and didn't know why.

As if seeing Ye Qing's confusion, Chilong smiled disdainfully: "Boy, do you think it's weird?"

Seeing Ye Qing nodding his head honestly, Chilong continued: "To tell you the truth, the incense in Mr. Xiang's hand is not an ordinary incense, but an incense to worship gods. One is to respect the sky, the other is to the earth, and the third is to the spirit. It is to respect the heaven to choose luck, and to respect the earth.

To ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters, if the incense does not go out after paying homage, it means that the gods of heaven and earth have accepted our incense invitation and will automatically bless our trip smoothly."

"Is it possible?" Ye Qing was a little doubtful. Just say goodbye, why do you still practice martial arts?

Chilong sneered: "Do you know why Mr. Xiang is called Mr. Xiang? It's because Mr. Xiang has all kinds of magical incense in his hands. He can seek good luck and avoid evil, seek out secrets, and can do anything. If you don't believe it, just wait and see.

?”

"Chilong, you know me very well, don't you?" Suddenly, Master Xiang's slightly smiling voice came from the front.

The smile on Chilong's face froze, and he smiled apologetically and said: "There, I heard it from hearsay, Master Xiang, please don't mind it!"

After saying that, Chi Long glared at Ye Qing viciously, his eyes cruel.

"It's none of my business, you have to answer it yourself!" Ye Qing was speechless, what a disaster.

"Brother Ye, if you are curious about my little trick, let's discuss it after the matter is settled!" Master Xiang ignored Chi Long and said to Ye Qing with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiang!" Ye Qing bowed his hand.

"Hehe, little brother, you have to be careful. The people who discussed with Mr. Xiang in the past have all turned into spices in the end!" Granny Snake interjected from the side.

Hearing this, Ye Qing trembled!

This time, Mr. Xiang was not angry. He turned and smiled at the lady: "Sister, please don't accuse me unjustly, so as not to scare the little brother!"

"Little brother, don't listen to her nonsense! I am the most elegant, humble and upright person!"

God is so elegant, humble, and upright!

Ye Qing grinned and forced a smile: "It's okay!" It seems that these people are not good men and women. Even Mr. Xiang, who seems to be the kindest, doesn't seem to be a good person.

"Stop talking, be careful when entering the mountains!" Zheng Tianyuan, who was walking in the middle, suddenly spoke, and everyone was silent for a while.

"Be careful, those are ghost willow catkins, don't touch them!" As he was walking, a burst of catkins suddenly floated in front of him. Seeing this, Ye Qing hurriedly reminded everyone that what happened to Liu Jinshui three days ago was still vivid in his mind.

"It's okay!" Mr. Xiang didn't care at all. He held the incense burner in his hand and continued to walk forward. Ye Qing could only bite the bullet and follow the others. When he was about to approach the catkins, a breeze suddenly blew in the forest, and the catkins suddenly disappeared.

He changed direction and passed them by.

"Don't make such a fuss. What can happen if Master Xiang is here?" Ah Bao on the side scolded Ye Qing dissatisfied.

Ye Qing could only smile. Then, Ye Qing really saw the magic of the incense.

One time, they encountered a group of white-bone rats. White-bone rats are gregarious monsters that will gnaw all flesh and blood creatures into bones. Ye Qing saw with his own eyes that these white-bone rats turned a blood-level monster into a water leopard.

Chewed alive into white bones. But these white-bone rats turned a blind eye to them as they passed by;

Once, they encountered countless blood-level weird headless lanterns. These headless lanterns were lit with candles. All creatures within the range of the candlelight would be overtaken by the headless lanterns, and then their heads would be covered by the lamps. Waiting for the lanterns

When they leave, their heads will disappear. But when these lanterns fly towards them, a rain suddenly falls in the sky. The rain extinguishes the candles in the headless lanterns. The candles go out, and those headless lanterns

The lanterns all flew away as if they had lost their target.

Another time, a fierce-level weird sharp-toothed tiger discovered them and rushed towards them. However, in the middle of the charge, it stepped on a fierce-level weird golden-armored pangolin that was coming out of a hole to catch its breath. Then,

The two monsters started fighting, causing the mountains to collapse and the earth to break apart. Naturally, they had no time to pay attention to Ye Qing and the others.

In short, there were countless things like this, which opened Ye Qing's eyes.

"Little brother, how long will it take to get to Yulong Lake?" Ye Qing, who was immersed in shock, heard Master Xiang ask.

Ye Qing came back to his senses and took a look at the surrounding environment: "Come on, climb over this mountain and walk for more than an hour, we will be there!"

"Very good, I hope you won't lie to me!" The arrogant and dignified Zheng Tianyuan threatened, "Everyone, please take a rest first!"

Hearing this, Abao took out a blanket made of animal skins from a palm-sized, shell-shaped thing, spread it on the ground carefully, and then took out some dried meat, preserved fruits, and fine wine, and said to Zheng Tianyuan: "Master, conditions

It’s simple, so you’ll just have to make do with it.”

"It's okay!" Zheng Tianyuan responded, sat on the blanket, and began to enjoy the wine and food on it, his movements were elegant and graceful, as if he were on an outing.

"That's a mountain and river shell. The mountain and river shell is a very special kind of monster. It has its own space in the body and can store dead objects. With just a little refinement, it can become a superior storage device!" Ye Qing said to him

Abao was very interested in the shell in his hand. Master Xiang came over and introduced it.

"Mountain and River Shells" aren't they just space artifacts? Do you think I don't know? Ye Qing remembered the incense burner and other objects that appeared out of thin air in Master Xiang's hand earlier, and asked curiously: "Master Xiang, do you also have Mountain and River Shells?"

"There is one thing!" Mr. Xiang turned his hand, and a shell the size of a baby's hand appeared in his hand. Compared with the mountain and river shell in A Bao's hand, it was more than a circle smaller, and the quality was slightly inferior: "I'm using the mountain and river shell.

It is made from an underage mountain and river shell. It is of lower grade and has limited storage space. It is not as good as the mountain and river shell in Master Zheng's hand. It has all the mountain and river patterns on it and is of good quality. At first glance, it is a high-grade mountain and river shell."

"It's just a mountain and river shell, it's nothing!" Hearing this, a trace of pride flashed across Zheng Tianyuan's face, and he said proudly: "If Mr. Xiang likes it, I will give you a high-grade mountain and river shell when I get back!"

"Haha, thank you very much Mr. Zheng!" Mr. Xiang chuckled.

"Shh, don't make any noise for now. Listen, what sounds like there?" A few people were eating dry food and talking, when Granny Snake, who was sitting nearby and meditating with her eyes closed, suddenly spoke.

Ye Qing listened carefully, and sure enough, he heard high-pitched, loud, and festive sounds coming from the distant mountains and forests.

"Suona, gongs and drums?"

Ye Qing judged in his heart: "It's a very festive sound!"

"It's the time to get married!" Mr. Xiang said suddenly, with a solemn look on his face.

"Getting married? Mr. Xiang, did you hear it wrong? How could someone get married in this wilderness? Maybe it was the news!" Abao laughed instinctively, but his expression changed immediately, because at this time he

I also heard the sound of suona and gongs and drums.

Master Xiang held the incense burner in his hand, with a solemn expression on his face: "Be careful, we may have encountered something strange!"

Granny Snake suggested: "Listen to the sound, there is still some distance, let's get out of the way!"

But as soon as they finished speaking, the sound of suonas and gongs and drums became louder and louder, as if they were very close. The next moment, a group of people in red robes, carrying Xi Jiao, appeared in front of them.

To be more precise, these people in red robes are not human beings, but rather weird and strange creatures.

The ones in the front row playing the suona were four short, fat, stout, pimple-faced, and extremely big-mouthed... toads.

Because of his big mouth, he can play the suona so loudly that it makes people happy.

Following closely behind them were six tall and slender monsters with long arms, like some kind of multi-limbed insect. One hand held a gong, and the other five held drumsticks, beating one after another.
