This sleep is a day and a night.

The next day.

It's almost noon.

Li Changan arrived at the school grounds in front of the mountain in high spirits after eating and drinking.

According to the agreement, the people who enter the mountain will make a blood alliance here and enter the mountain to slay the demons.

He didn't have much expectations for this. However, he didn't expect that the school grounds would be noisy and bustling with people of all kinds. It was estimated that there were hundreds of people.

Among them are the arrogant and arrogant warriors in the army, the fierce and fat monks of the Zen Forest, the rangers with high-spirited attitude, and of course, the masters of the Long Xiang Guard and the White Lotus Sect are indispensable.

This is surprising.

Li Changan still remembered the faces of the military generals named He and Puzhi yesterday. If it weren't for the corpse poison that had not been cleaned up, one by one would have escaped long ago.

How could he, in just one night, be anxious for justice and sacrifice himself for others?

It happened that Taoist Master Longtu came up dragging a bag of items to see the gift.

After hearing Li Changan's doubts, he pointed at Yang Zhiji in the crowd and said with a smile:

"Thanks to Master Yang for your hard work."

It turned out that Yang Zhiji had made up his mind when he saw Long Tu, and the situation was irreversible, and the White Lotus Sect was determined to interfere. In this way, firstly, it would be inevitable that all the cards in his hand would be folded into Qianfo Temple; secondly, the matter was over,

It's okay to take a risk, and if you are lucky enough to succeed, it can be considered a great achievement.

As a result, he immediately changed his thinking and style, and instead worked hard to get into the mountains to slay the demons.

Master Yang first went to Pu Zhi and said frankly that he admired all of you for your profound Buddhist teachings, but it was a pity that the Thousand Buddha Temple was occupied by demons and all the eminent monks were displaced. I happened to hear that the imperial court intended to spread education in southern Xinjiang, so why not invite you to go there?

Promote Buddhism in the miasmatic forest and try to convert a few cannibals?

At that time, Zen Master Pu Zhi returned with righteous words: The ancestral property, the Jialan Treasure Land, was abandoned in the hands of demons?! Everyone in Qianfo Temple vowed to take back the mountain gate to the death.

How many young men are needed? Tell me!

Then, Mr. Yang went to General He again and said frankly that General, you are mighty and powerful, and you are able to run the army well. It is really a loss for the imperial court to guard one place instead of guarding one side. This period of time also depends on your care, so I am going to write a letter to let you go.

The masters and friends in Chaozhong will work hard to promote you to one of the guards. It just so happens that there is a vacancy in Yuzhou City!

General He immediately patted his chest and expressed his position: Yuzhou is in danger of overthrowing, and the corpses on the mountain are not yet cold. How can it be time to worry about personal achievements? It will not be too late for me, old He Ti, to talk about this when his troops conquer the Thousand Buddhas Temple.

Armor, weapons, crossbows, warriors, whatever you want, I'll give you!

After that, Mr. Yang communicated with the state government again, first to show his love for the safety of his hometown, and then to lure him with large sums of money for profit, in order to win heroes and warriors.

Finally, people from all walks of life were gathered together and those with outstanding skills and courage were selected.

Total, three hundred people!

"There are so many living corpses, wouldn't it be better to have more people going up the mountain?"

Li Changan took the object handed over by Long Tu and took a closer look. It was a piece of soft armor lined with some talismans and magic weapons. He didn't show any pretense, he put it on immediately and asked questions smoothly.

"Because of the big formation on the mountain."

But it was Kong Yan and Xishi who came together. Kong Yan explained:

"The big formation on the mountain has the effect of purifying people's minds and leading people to the Buddha. However, because the Dharma bodies of my three brothers fell into the devil's way, the devil can also use the big formation to confuse people's minds and stir up demonic obstacles. Therefore, it is necessary to

A few Taoist priests opened an altar at the foot of the mountain to fight against them. When there are too many people, they will not be able to protect them, and they will take advantage of them."

Li Changan automatically imagined a constant-effect hypnosis, thinking that this monk had never been honest before he fell. Before that, in the mountains, although he did not drink Buddhist porridge, he was also pulled into hallucinations, and there was an explanation. However, Li Changan recalled

So is the reality of the illusion and the demon barrier alone really so powerful?

Without thinking too much, Taoist Xishishi next to him already said:

"It's because our skills are not good and our cultivation is still shallow. Protecting three hundred people is our limit. Otherwise, if more people can go up the mountain, the danger can be reduced a bit."

After saying that, he sighed again.

"If Master Luo's uncle is here, why bother with just three hundred people?"

"Junior brother is joking." Long Tu said, "If my uncle is here, why bother? Just convene the Zhenwu Great Emperor's Demon Subduing Altar... Alas, what's the use of talking about it? It's hard to deal with the fire that's close by the water far away."

"That's right." Xi Shi nodded with emotion, "He is playing in the human world and his whereabouts are uncertain. Now that he has this time, wouldn't it be faster to invite the Heavenly Master?"

"Junior brother is joking again, can Heavenly Master make a move?"

The two Longhu Mountain Taoist priests were feeling sorry for themselves and bragging about their awesomeness, which became more and more mysterious. Li Changan didn't want to interrupt, so he only glanced at Kong Yan and found that he was wearing a light robe over his monk's clothes.

"You want to go too?"

"There is nothing you can do about the remaining soul."

"Be careful."

Kong Yan knew the meaning of Li Changan's words, smiled and raised his hand to nod himself.

"Of course, the poor monk still expects this little guy to pass on my mantle."

……………………

The mountain breeze is gentle, the treetops are swaying, and the broken shadows are mottled.

Everything is peaceful, everything is weird.

In other words, peace is the biggest weirdness here and now.

The winding mountain road stretched the team into a long queue. Li Changan stood on a bluestone with his sword pressed, looking around cautiously.

In front of us, the sun was shining just right, and sometimes there were birds flying through the forest.

But...what about the living corpses?

Where were the living corpses that littered the mountains and plains the night before yesterday?

The team of three hundred people climbed halfway up the mountain, and they were already halfway through the journey, but the expected enemy...the living corpses never showed up.

This is like a life-and-death fight when a punch hits an empty space.

On the contrary, it made people feel even more uneasy, but they could only say one thing to their companions.

"Be careful."

At this moment, there suddenly was some commotion at the front of the team.

"Coming." someone shouted.

"Living corpse?"

Li Changan jumped down and grabbed it in two or three steps.

"Where?"

But the man hesitated and said: "It's right in front, but it's not a living corpse, it's..."

There was no need for him to say anything. Li Changan had already seen the thick mist rolling in silently in the forest ahead.

There was no fog in the mountains in the morning, so how come there was thick fog at noon?

There's something strange about this fog.

Suddenly, there were shouts, reminders, curses, chants, and the sound of swords being unsheathed.

However.

Until the mist submerged everyone, there was still no movement, let alone the living corpses taking the opportunity to attack people.

Everyone braved the thick fog and walked forward tremblingly for a while, but finally someone couldn't hold it any longer.

"Everyone looked like they were cowering. If they were so scared, why did they come up the mountain? If I saw that the living corpse hadn't appeared for a long time, it must have been scared away long ago!"

The speaker was a ranger recruited by the state capital. He had never seen a horde of zombies devouring people, and he was also ignorant and fearless.

"Stop hanging around here. I'll find the corpse Buddha earlier and kill him. I'll get the reward and have a good time in the brothel at night."

After that, he actually left the team and walked swaggering to the front.

Long Tu wanted to persuade him, but before he could speak, he saw the man staggering and plunged into the thick fog.

Then you can hear it.

"Living corpse!"

There was a sudden commotion in the team, with some advancing and some retreating. All in all, it was a chaotic mess. The leaders of several parties were so angry that they beat and scolded them before they calmed down.

And Li Changan had already jumped into the fog.

No two steps.

Then he saw the man languishing on the ground with a frightened expression, while a monk in front of him stood with his head bowed, with red hair growing on his face.

Living corpse!

Li Changan looked stern and drew his sword to kill.

But the long sword was only halfway out of the sheath. His eyes moved and he pressed the long sword back into the sheath again.

"how?"
