The mountain road is not wide, but it is not narrow either. It can at least accommodate two carriages traveling side by side. It is just that it is in disrepair, has become overgrown with weeds, and is dilapidated, and there is not even a single person seen along the way.
Because the locals almost never take this road, they would rather take the long way around.
There are too many dead people here, and the yin energy is too strong. Sometimes a thick fog will suddenly appear during the day. Needless to say, it is the ghosts of those who were killed to cause mischief and confuse people...
And this road is almost entirely built on a winding mountain, with cliffs on one side and abyss on the other. If you are not careful, you will fall down and keep company with those evil ghosts.
Xiao Ye and Ouyang Yunyi were afraid that their horses might have sprained their legs, so they pulled out the reins and walked slowly. Suddenly, a whirlwind rolled up from the bottom of the valley, spinning rapidly in front of their horses, spinning bigger and bigger, picking up countless weeds and rocks, and whining.
Weird whining noise.
The two horses were frightened and raised their heads together and screamed.
"What's the use of you looking for me? It's not me who harmed you. Every wrong has its own owner, and retribution will come sooner or later. You've all been waiting for so many years. What can you do if you wait a few more years?" Ouyang Yun
Yi tightened the reins tightly and looked at Xuanfeng and said loudly.
There was a faint sound of noisy ghosts screaming in the whirlwind, which seemed to be telling him about the tragic experiences in his life.
"What the hell?" Xiao Ye was a little impatient and frowned, "Just keep making noise and go away quickly, don't block our way!"
As soon as Xiao Ye finished speaking, he heard a whimpering sound coming from the whirlwind, and then he retreated far away, wandered around the valley a few times, and finally disappeared.
Sure enough, the old saying is true... Even ghosts are afraid of evil people!
"Xiao Ye, why are you scolding them?" Xiao Chen and others came from behind. Seeing Xiao Ye scolding ghosts, Xiao Chen immediately stopped him, "They were pitiful people when they were alive, and they are pitiful ghosts when they die."
"Alas... take pity on me, the people of this world, who are in so many sorrows." Zhao Gongming sighed.
"Good ghosts don't block the way. It shows that these guys are not very good at recognizing faces." Shangguan Qiji said, "Is it reasonable to come out and scream and scare people in broad daylight? In other words, we men are not afraid of ghosts. If we encounter a coward,
Even the little one was scared to death."
What the fat man said makes sense.
"This is a road built by others, and it is also a dead end. We should not be able to walk on it alive, so it is not other people's ghosts that are blocking us, but we should not break into other people's territory." Zhao Gongming said.
"Damn old eunuch, who do you belong to!" Shangguan Qiji was angry, why did you still speak for the ghost?
"Yun Yi, your Ouyang family has unparalleled metaphysics, and you must also be able to summon souls and calm souls. Why don't you save these lonely ghosts? Isn't this a great merit?" Xiao Chen said to Ouyang Yunyi.
road.
"My dear Brother Xiao, these are not some scattered ghosts. There are hundreds of thousands of dead ghosts scattered all over the mountains and plains! Every one of them is full of resentment. If we want to save him, we may not be able to save him in ten lifetimes.
Now, let’s talk about who you have saved and who you have not saved? Those who have saved you will be grateful to you, and those who have not saved you will hate you to death!” Ouyang Yunyi grinned.
In fact, not only the Ouyang family, but also many Taoist priests with strong magic skills and compassionate eminent monks have made a special trip here to set up altars in order to save these dead souls.
But there were too many undead souls, and they all wanted to be saved first. When they saw someone coming to perform rituals, they immediately rushed to them. The strong Yin Qi swept over them and destroyed the altar.
The frightened Taoist monks all fled and never dared to do this good deed again.
If there are only a few hundred or even a thousand people, all the disciples of the Ouyang Family can handle it. At best, we can find some helpers to help.
But these are hundreds of thousands of ghosts! The resentment of the Yin spirits together is too heavy, so no matter how advanced your Taoism is, there is nothing you can do. In the words of Master Ciyun during her lifetime, you can only be led by Tathagata Buddha.
Only eight hundred Arhats can come...
Nowadays, the number of people in Jingchu is sparse, of course because too many people died in the beginning, but the yin energy here is too strong, which causes the yin to be strong and the yang to be weak, but this is also one of the reasons.
"I heard Second Grandpa and several other elderly people say that if we want to save these dead souls, we can only do it if the 'Spiritual World Tianshu' appears in this world." Ouyang Yunyi said.
"What is the Spiritual World Tianshu?" Xiao Chen had never heard of it.
"According to old legend, there was a mysterious Xuanzong in the Jianghu in the past. They got a heavenly book from the Nine Heavens Xuannv, which is called "Lingshi Tianshu", which contains all the mysteries in the heaven, earth and universe. As long as the cultivation is completed,
You can directly become a saint physically and fly into the sky to become an immortal." Ouyang Yunyi said.
"Oh, my family has heard of this. Is it possible that there is such a sect?" Zhao Gongming asked in surprise.
Ouyang Yunyi said that this is just a legend. After all, Xuanzong has not reappeared in the world for hundreds of years. No one knows whether there are any disciples, and no one has seen their disciples.
The reason why Xuanzong suddenly disappeared hundreds of years ago was because their "Lingshi Tianshu" was stolen. When Jiutian Xuannv learned about it, she was furious and severely punished them, and then banned them all from the Jiutian.
Under the Yuanyin Mountain, you are not allowed to go out for a thousand years...
Who is said to be so powerful and daring that he can steal their sect-suppressing treasure from Xuanzong? I heard it is a nine-tailed fox with ten thousand years of practice!
A fox with three tails will become a spirit, a spirit fox with four tails will become a monster, a fox with five tails will become a monster... A fox with nine tails will be a transcendent saint, comparable to a god. If it can comprehend and cultivate after stealing the "Lingshi Tianshu", it will become a monster.
What's more, his magic power reaches the sky.
Not to mention that Xuanzong's people couldn't find it, even Jiutian Xuannv couldn't do anything with it.
"This sounds like nonsense! I don't know who the evildoer made it up." Shangguan Qiji didn't believe these rumors and stories. They were all caused by strange forces and chaos.
"That's what I said, but decades ago there were rumors that the broken pages of "Lingshi Tianshu" suddenly reappeared in the world. Why was the eldest grandson's illness so severe? He just got several broken pages of Tianshu, but
No one could find him after his death, maybe he was destroyed after practicing," Ouyang Yunyi said.
After all, it is still just rumors without any evidence.
"Don't tell me, it's really possible." Zhao Gongming was a little convinced, "The eldest grandson Shen Yan was an ordinary disciple of the Lower Ninth Sect before, and his abilities were very ordinary. How could he suddenly become so powerful? But it's strange.
Extremely, maybe it was just a coincidence that I got Tianshu, otherwise why would I be invincible?"
"Let's not talk about it. Anyway, even if there is a Tianshu, we can't see it." Xiao Chen said, "Since we can't do anything now, let's wait until we have the opportunity to gather all the Taoist priests and monks in the world to do a meeting here.
There was a great Dharma ceremony, and I spent a year or two to liberate them all."
"Amitabha, you are so good." Zhao Gongming chanted the Buddha's name loudly, "Sir, if you have such a benevolent heart, you are worthy of being the lord of the world and the king of a country!"
"It's too early to flatter him." Shangguan Qiji said with a smile, "Let's wait until he can really ascend the throne and become the emperor one day."
