Chapter 0109 Mysterious ancestral hall, are the ancestors gods?
Based on time calculation, this story from the third uncle's mouth should have happened at least thirty years ago.
At that time, Jiang Yue heard Sangou talk about it and thought that paper cranes flying out of thin air was quite mysterious and incredible.
Who could have imagined that everything happening in front of me would be ten times more mysterious!
Luo Chu swallowed the water with difficulty.
He works in the special department, and although he is only a small leader, he has access to some files on paranormal phenomena.
But in all the years he has been working in Star City, he has never encountered anything too weird in the cases he has taken on. So Luo Chu has always wondered whether those high-level strange cases are deliberately avoiding him?
At this moment, he realized how stupid this idea was.
High-level cases come as they come, without even a single hello!
The scene he saw in front of him, given Luo Chu's level, he had seen all the supernatural cases before, but they were probably far from what he was seeing now!
After a brief brain shutdown, Luo Chu slowly returned to normal. He didn't even have time to rejoice in the aftermath of the disaster. His mind was filled with excitement.
Witnessing this scene, Luo Chu even felt that even if he fell to the ground and died now, he could rest in peace.
"Luo Chu." Jiang Yue suddenly said, "Except for you and me, I hope no fourth person will know about today's scene."
Jiang Yue was not Sangou. The scene in front of him really made him quite excited, as if a flame in his bones was ignited by some mysterious power.
But despite the excitement, he did not get carried away.
What happened just now must not be spread, otherwise the entire Panshi Ridge and even the entire Jiang Family Ancestral Hall may be crowded by an endless stream of people.
And the two brothers, and even the entire family, may never think of living in peace from now on.
Luo Chu's first thought was actually to report it immediately.
This old Jiang family is definitely the pillar of the country!
How can such extraordinary people not be used by the country?
Looking at Jiang Yue's aggressive gaze, Luo Chu suddenly understood that neither he nor the department behind him should offend the young man in front of him, but should repair him.
It's best to take his request seriously.
What's more, Jiang Yue's request is quite reasonable.
It is understandable for anyone to ask for self-protection in this situation.
Luo Chu also understood that once the news spread, it might cause a huge disaster to the two young people, their family, and even the entire village.
Since ancient times, ordinary people are not guilty, but they are guilty of carrying a jade.
A few paper cranes can actually function as incendiary bombs, and the attack range can be controlled freely, never harming innocent people.
Apart from myths and legends, who can imagine this kind of method?
How many people will be concerned about this method, and how many people will be envious of it?
Sighing, Luo Chu spoke: "Xiao Jiang, although I personally want you to be used by the country, considering this matter, danger and opportunity coexist for you. Therefore, it is reasonable for you to request confidentiality. I swear, unless
You are willing, otherwise I will never say a word. If this secret is leaked from me, I will be struck by lightning and killed by thousands of arrows!"
The three dogs opened their mouths, as if they were about to say something but still wanted to stop.
In his simple mind, he felt that Luo Chu's poisonous oath was too exaggerated.
"Sangou, the same goes for you. Once this matter is exposed, you, me, and all our relatives will be targeted. If you don't want to bring disaster to your relatives, it's best not to show off everywhere."
In fact, Sangou is not confused about major matters, but he can't resist this kid's fondness for playing zither. If one day his brain gets hot and his mouth loosens slightly, it will be bad if it leaks out.
Luo Chu also advised: "Sangou, you have to listen to your second brother on this matter. The evil spirits of monsters are scary, but the human heart is equally scary. If you are really targeted by unscrupulous villains, who attack your relatives and blackmail you, they will never show mercy.
.Even your ancestral hall can be moved away brick by brick overnight."
The three dogs are young and wild-tempered, but they are not stupid.
Once he made it clear like this, he immediately understood the importance of it.
It's like Sangou has a good thing on hand, and his friends around him are thinking about it day and night, always wanting to get their hands on it and play with it.
And this matter is obviously ten times more serious.
When it comes to endangering relatives or ancestors, Sangou will never be ambiguous.
This incredible thing has happened, and it stands to reason that it will take some time to digest it.
But the situation doesn't allow it.
The beast tide has been solved, but there is still a bigger disaster that has not yet been solved.
That old Yinbi Zhao Shouyin mentioned Zishi before.
Looking at the time, it is now past 23:00 in the middle of the night, which means that midnight has arrived!
God knows what kind of plane this old fox is planning with dozens of vicious ghosts and resentful spirits?
They have already learned the tricks of this old fox. If they don't take action, once they do, it will be absolutely horrifying.
The shuttle bus was in trouble, Yunxi Town Feng Shui Formation, a wave of beasts was summoned...
Which one is not a big deal?
The most horrifying thing is that the above-mentioned grand deeds are not the end of his conspiracy.
The big thing he really planned has not even been exposed until now.
This is what Jiang Yue is most worried about.
The front door was burned to ashes. Although there was no wreckage, the beast tide burned it to ashes and deposited a thick layer of ash, making it impossible to stay.
The temperature of the ashes cannot be lowered for a while, and it is probably several hundred degrees Celsius. If you step on it, it will be destroyed on the spot.
Jiang Yue took a look and found that there was really no place to set foot in the front yard, so he could only go through the back door.
As soon as he turned around, Jiang Yue's eyes suddenly stopped on the mural under the plaque.
The mural originally had a picture of pine and crane prolonging life, and a picture of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix.
At this moment, one side of Songhe Yannian's mural was missing, as if it had been directly erased, leaving an abrupt blank space.
There were originally some cranes painted in that position.
"Could it be that the crane on the mural is the nine-headed paper crane that cast the spell just now?"
Luo Chu and Sangou followed Jiang Yue's eyes and immediately discovered this magical scene.
"Incredible, incredible..." Luo Chu murmured, "Xiao Jiang, your ancestor is definitely an immortal. This is 100% the magic method of turning stone into gold!"
It's no wonder that Luo Chu is so rare. There is no record of such a thing even in the special department files that he has access to.
Ancestors...
Is it just the ancestor?
Jiang Yue glanced at Sangou, thoughtfully.
At the moment when the paper crane rose, Jiang Yue clearly felt that a sleeping force in his body seemed to be awakened, and an inexplicable fire was instantly ignited.
I wonder if Sangou feels the same way.
It's just that Luo Chu, an outsider, is here and it's not convenient for Jiang Yue to mention it.
"Let's go, we have to find Zhao Shouyin first."
Jiang Yue felt somewhat regretful. He could basically tell that even if Zhao Shouyin had gone wild in this ancestral hall just now, his body would definitely be gone.
If we fight at the ancestral hall, it will be equivalent to a home battle, and Jiang Yue is 100% sure.
However, this old guy is very cunning. He actually hid and controlled it remotely. Even he himself had escaped and was not in Panshi Ridge at all.
The three of them entered the lobby and planned to leave through the back door of the back hall to see if they could find a way out.
Just as they passed through the lobby, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in the darkness, following Jiang Yue and the others. The glimmer of light was about the size of a lychee.
This glimmer of light was not particularly eye-catching in the dark night, but it seemed to have some humanity. It followed him all the way, and even stopped in front of Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue's palms spread out, and the glimmer of light fell on Jiang Yue's palms.
The faint light slowly converged, and the shimmering light flickered, revealing its body, which was actually a spherical metal projectile. The material seemed a bit rough, and it had an obvious texture when held in the hand, with a faint hint of...
There was a solemn and chilling air.
Jiang Yue was greatly surprised.
He recognized the bead at a glance.
Previously, there were two murals on the left and right under the plaque in the lobby.
On one side are pine trees and cranes prolonging the year, and on the other side are birds paying homage to the phoenix.
And this pellet bead is clearly the bead that the phoenix is holding in its mouth in the mural of Birds Facing the Phoenix.
The phoenix holding pearls is a very common image in folk sculptures and paintings.
However, the murals in the Jiang Family Ancestral Hall are so magical. Every image seems to be embodied? Can it be turned into a physical entity?
What does this pellet bead represent?
No matter what it represents, it will never be mediocre.
To deal with Zhao Shouyin, to be honest, Jiang Yue didn't have enough trump cards in his heart. After all, Zhao Shouyin was not scary. What was scary was that he controlled dozens of evil ghosts and resentful spirits.
This bead stands out from the mural and must have a profound meaning.
Thinking of the nine-headed paper crane that flew out of the mural earlier, and the devastating power that the paper crane exuded afterwards, Jiang Yue guessed that this bead must not be a mortal thing.
The path at the back door is actually filled with the remains of all kinds of animals.
But I can finally find some place to stay.
The three of them moved around laboriously, and from time to time they had to place some bricks, tiles, planks, and stones as a transition.
Fortunately, Sangou was familiar with every corner of the village. Under his guidance, the three of them finally walked out of the village slowly.
The further you get to the periphery, the farther away you are from the core burning zone, and the fewer the corpses of the beasts are.
It can be seen that the coverage area of the nine-headed paper crane attack is still limited after all, and it does not spread infinitely.
When we arrived at the entrance of the village, there was nothing but the remains of a few beasts that had barely escaped to the outskirts. Those who were alive had long since lost their souls. They didn't know how far they had fled at this moment, and there was no way they could stay.
Except for the strong burning smell in the air, Panshiling seemed to be calm again.
Standing at the entrance of the village, with the mountain breeze blowing, Luo Chu finally felt like he had narrowly escaped death.
"Second brother, will Zhao Shouyin and his ghosts be burned to death?"
"I'm afraid it won't be that easy." Jiang Yue is not optimistic about this at all.
Jiang Yue looked at the time. It would be midnight in half an hour.
There can be no further delay.
With every second that passes, the possibility of Zhao Shouyin's old fox succeeding in his conspiracy increases.
"Where can I find this stupid guy?"
"Dajinshan."
If he hadn't known that Zhao Shouyin was in Panshi Ridge before, Jiang Yue wouldn't even have stayed in Panshi Ridge for a long time.
Along the way, Jiang Yue went through all the information related to Zhao Shouyin in his mind.
Two very important pieces of information were extracted by him.
The first piece of information is that after the death of Zhao Shouyin's mother, Gong Wanyu, her natal brothers carried the body back to Panshiling and buried it in a mass grave. The mass grave was also in Dajinshan.
This second item is the Feng Shui formation on the third floor of Zhao's Silver Factory.
At that time, Jiang Yue could only understand the layer of Yin-Yang's Transformation of Spirits, but the pillar on the east side, depicting the dragon with its head and broken spine, had no direct relationship with Yin-Yang's Transformation of Spirits.
According to the geographical location, the location of Dajin Mountain is exactly at the east end of Yunxi Town.
The pillar on the west side of the Feng Shui array is a mirror and a bunch of hair, which is obviously to block Feng Shui and keep all curses on the east side.
Dragon Broken Backbone!
Considering that on the Qingming Festival, the beams of Jiuli Pavilion were disconnected and the suzaku's ability to fly was obviously destroyed. This was obviously an attempt to destroy the dragon veins of Dajin Mountain.
Dajin Mountain is a treasure land of Feng Shui, and it is a living dragon recognized by the Feng Shui community.
But no matter how vigorous the dragon is, it can't hold back the dragon's broken spine.
A living dragon with a broken spine is equivalent to complete paralysis. Over time, it will become a sick dragon, a weak dragon, and finally a dead dragon.
When a dragon dies, its soul will be destroyed. The result is most likely that one party's feng shui will be ruined and all living beings will suffer.
Although all this is just Jiang Yue's inference, Jiang Yue is confident that this inference is at least 90% possible.
Jiuli Pavilion is nine miles away from Panshiling. Although it is not far, it is not close either.
"Sangou, you and Luo Chu are in the rear, I will take the first step."
Now Jiang Yue didn't want to waste a second. After strengthening his body, his speed was at least three to five times that of ordinary people.
Nine miles is equivalent to 4,500 meters, and professional athletes have to run for more than ten minutes on a professional track.
Jiang Yue's current speed was obviously far superior to those of professional athletes. He increased his speed in the dark night and disappeared at the entrance of the village in a flash.
Luo Chu's slender eyes behind his lenses looked at Jiang Yue's disappearing back, and he fell into deep thought for a while.
The secret hidden in this young man seems to have no end in sight.
Luo Chu secretly investigated the physical test results of Yangfan Middle School. The data showed that there was nothing abnormal about Jiang Yue's physical test results.
But looking at Jiang Yue's speed, everything was obviously abnormal.
Sangou was not surprised at all. In his simple and simple understanding, everything that happened to the second brother was normal, no matter how mysterious it was.
Jiang Yue was not in the mood to wonder what Luo Chu would think. He increased his speed to the limit. After five or six minutes, he was only a few hundred meters away from Jiuli Pavilion.
Although the vision in the dark is not as perfect as during the day, the outline of Jiuli Pavilion can be seen in the distance.
Jiuli Pavilion is located at the foot of Dajin Mountain and is deserted. At night like this, it should be desolate and lonely, with no one visible.
But the closer Jiang Yue got, the clearer Jiuli Pavilion became in his field of vision.
At this moment, Jiuli Pavilion is not dim and dark, but is shrouded in a faint light, which seems red but not red, green but not green, and white but not white.
The atmosphere is very much like the set of a mountain village ghost movie.
Such a strange scene, Jiang Yue didn't even need to think, he intuitively knew what must be happening in Jiuli Pavilion.
Just as he was about to take a step forward, suddenly there was a rustling sound in the grass on the side.
The grass pulled apart, and a little boy with muddy head and face emerged. He looked younger than the three dogs.
The little boy was carrying a sealed bamboo basket on his back, and his hands and feet were covered in mud.
Seeing Jiang Yue, the little boy was also startled: "Are you Brother Yue?"
Jiang Yue didn't answer, staring at the other person with a solemn gaze.
In the middle of the night, in this desolate and gloomy place, a little boy emerged, looking strange no matter how he looked at it.
Even if the other party calls out his name.
After watching for a moment, Jiang Yue also recognized him. This little boy did look familiar. He was from Panshiling. Jiang Yue had forgotten his specific name.
"Who are you? What are you doing in this ghost place at night?" Jiang Yue asked tentatively.
"Catch wild animals and sell them in the town for money." The little boy unloaded the bamboo basket and approached Jiang Yue with enthusiasm, "Brother Yue, look at it, I caught a lot."
When the bamboo basket was approaching Jiang Yue, a burst of black air suddenly emerged, and a ghost hand suddenly appeared from the bamboo basket and grabbed Jiang Yue's neck fiercely.
It's too late to say it, but it's soon.
Jiang Yue had been on guard for a long time. He just avoided the bamboo basket with his body and grabbed the little boy instead.
This kid obviously didn't expect Jiang Yue to react so quickly, and was caught in Jiang Yue's hand.
The next moment, the mud on the little boy's head and face disappeared, replaced by blood on his head and face. His whole body became a bloody man, with his eyes, nostrils, and mouth dripping with blood.
Caught by Jiang Yue's divine ghost-killing hand, the little ghost couldn't help but struggle, and at the same time he let out a shrill scream, and his two red and sinister pupils were full of resentment.
Jiang Yue put away his pity and grabbed it hard. The kid turned into bursts of blood in his hands and disappeared quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Before Jiang Yue could relax, a sudden surge of blood flowed from behind him. Jiang Yue could have turned sideways, and a hatchet just struck his side.
Looking sideways, he turned out to be an old man with a ferocious face and his body covered in blood. He was waving the hatchet crazily and slashing at Jiang Yue again.
This old man was actually an old man from Panshiling, and Jiang Yue could even call him by his name.
Unfortunately, what appeared at this moment was obviously not a human being, but a ghost.
Jiang Yue was secretly surprised. No one was found in Panshiling on the Qingming Festival. Could it be that these people had been killed long ago?
This doesn’t seem right either!
Look at this old man's ghost and the previous little ghost. It obviously doesn't look like it has been in evil for a long time. All the methods are obviously unfamiliar. It seems that it is a new ghost!
However, why are these two new ghosts covered in strange blood and stains? This is obviously different from the resentful ghosts we have seen before.
And look at the resentment in their eyes. Compared with the new ghost transformed by the girl named Su in Crescent Harbor, it seems to be more intense, more brutal and bloody, and the fight is obviously more hysterical.
Just when Jiang Yue was confused, two more bloody ghosts jumped out of the void, divided into several groups, and formed a force to surround Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue couldn't help but curse secretly at this situation.
Are ghosts no longer worthy of their dignity?
A majestic ghost actually uses group fighting tactics against humans. How could it be any less promising?
Fortunately, these are obviously new ghosts. They look murderous and hysterical, but their fighting skills and use of ghosts are obviously not proficient enough.
Jiang Yue has had several experiences fighting ghosts. Although he was beaten by a group of people, he didn't panic at all.
Seizing the right opportunity, Shengang used the Ghost Slayer in succession, killing two ghosts in succession.
The remaining ghost screamed, turned around and walked away.
Jiang Yue never imagined that this ghost could be so hopeless.
I quickly caught up and found that Jiuli Pavilion was already less than 200 to 300 meters away.
His body suddenly stopped and his expression became strange.
In the darkness, he clearly heard the uniform sound of chants coming from ahead.
"Hoo yo, ho yo..."
Listening to this voice and this momentum, it seems like hundreds of people are doing some collective work.
Just like a collective event like dragon boat rowing, everyone shouts a unified chant.
How could there be any group activities in such a desolate and gloomy place in the middle of the night?
What kind of trick is this Zhao Shouyin doing?
Without thinking twice, Jiang Yue continued to fly towards Jiuli Pavilion.
Jiuli Pavilion keeps getting closer and clearer within sight.
Jiang Yue could even see a person standing on the high top of Jiuli Pavilion.
The man's beard and hair were white, and he was obviously old. Standing on a high place, he looked like a general commanding thousands of troops, with high spirits and an evil and sinister smile on his face.
Zhao Shouyin!
Jiang Yue recognized at a glance that this old guy was Zhao Shouyin!
