Mu Yuejun did not take them for a long time, and it only took less than three days. However, during these days, several people had passed through several spiritual veins, large and small, and the changes in environment and temperature even caused Ye Linghua to contract typhoid fever. Fortunately, he did not suffer from typhoid fever.
It's not serious. I went to get medicine that day and drank it. In addition, Mutsuki-kun also took medicine at the pharmacy.
After cooking some other medicine, they poured it into a bamboo tube and stuffed a few thin gauze inside. I don’t know what they were going to do. After that, they continued on their way. Mutsuki-kun also said that if it weren’t for the power of Huangquan Ling,
It is not enough to protect everyone through the six spiritual veins, and it only takes a day to get there.
It wasn't until the last day before arriving at the destination that Mutsuki-kun told them that the place was quite dangerous for ordinary people. He dried gauze soaked in medicine and distributed it to them, saying that the place was filled with terrible miasma.
It must be purified before inhalation
In the belly. Otherwise, people will soon be deprived of vitality by this miasma, gradually paralyzed, weak, until they lose their lives. And in that place, no matter how powerful the monster is, it will not be able to use spells. After all, it is a place built by many people.
A powerful barrier.
"Dead Man's Swamp?"
After listening to what he said, Han Zhang blurted out these three words.
"You know?"
"Yes... I have heard that there is a huge desert skeleton guarding it."
"Well. Rather than saying "guarding", the word "sealing" is more appropriate. If you are worried that you do not have the strength to enter there, you can stay away for a while until A Zhe comes back."
Apart from the miasma, there seems to be no difference to Ling Huan, but Han Zhang is not afraid either. After reaching this point, they will not quit so easily. Especially Han Zhang was told by Mu Yuejun where he was going and where he was going.
Destination——Eclipse Light Tower
So close, how could he abandon his friends and hide in peace while still accepting the love of others? Ye Linghua seemed to only have to face the problem of miasma, and Mu Yuejun even directly gave a solution. From this point of view,
, they should not leave.
Along the way, Xie Zhe had no intention of giving up. Although he knew nothing about what Mutue-kun asked him to do, he had believed in him since he was a child. His mother also taught him since he was a child, Qingyang Chukong·Mu Yue
Jun, he is the great benefactor of the Xie family. You have to do whatever your great benefactor says even if you risk your life. This is called benevolence and righteousness. But now, Xie Che's actions are not just out of so-called benevolence and righteousness.
Finally, they stopped somewhere in the spiritual vein. The dark road ahead was the end of the spiritual vein, and it had no exit. The others were wondering, when Mutsuki-kun muttered something in his mouth, and finally suddenly brought his tin staff to the ground.
Knock. Amidst the reverberating hum of metal, a strong white streak bloomed on the ground.
The light overflowed as the cracks spread. They all raised their arms and covered their eyes. Only Mutsuki-kun faced everything without changing his expression. Until the light dimmed, the three of them all smelled a light but refreshing smell.
The fragrance. It seems to be the fragrance of flowers, but... it does not belong to the winter season.
They saw a strange door.
No...it doesn't look like a door, but more like an outdoor arch called a torii in a shrine in the east. It's just a similar shape, which makes people think of it, but the color is completely different. Although the torii
It also symbolizes the door into a certain "special world" in the shrine, but their pillars are tall, straight, and vermilion. The "torii" here are two trees - very big trees. But
Looking at the dense flowers above, it is not difficult to tell that they are cherry trees and peach trees.
They have no fallen leaves, only flowers in full bloom. The two trees extend long branches and are connected together, like hands holding each other tightly. The flowers in the center are colorful and gorgeous. This makes them feel a very special vitality.
It's as simple as blooming in winter. Fallen flowers are flying down, but
They were not sprinkled on the ground, but disappeared silently, as if they were going to another world. No matter how these beautiful pink and white petals were scattered, they kept flowing, as if there were endless flowers blooming in places invisible to the trees.
Flower. This simple and elegant fragrance never fades for a moment, and it is even more intoxicating.
"Are you ready?" Mutsuki-kun asked, "When you cross this door, you must wear the gauze scarf and cannot take it off for a moment; after crossing this door, no magic, onmyoji, or magic will occur.
If you encounter danger, you can only use force to solve the problem; if you cross this door, you will go to a realm that does not belong to life or death."
Faced with these problems, the three of them had of course been mentally prepared for a long time. However, they felt a little nervous before actually entering there. After taking a few deep breaths, Han Zhang took the lead in walking towards the torii, followed closely by Xie Zhe.
They disappeared the moment they passed through the door. No matter whether they were in front of the door or behind the door, they could not be found. Ye Lingquan looked at Mu Yuejun, but was afraid that he would say something to persuade him again,
Let your mentality waver and immediately chase your friends.
This is really a special place - the so-called place of life and death. As Mutsuki-kun said, the Dead Man's Swamp is filled with a strong miasma everywhere, even though there don't seem to be any dead animals or plants here. Once inside, Han Sang
Then he led the listening phoenix,
He was holding on to his sister as if he didn't dare to let go. At that time, Xie Zhe turned around to confirm the situation and saw that Han Zhang was already paying attention, so he focused a little on the road in front of him. After all, the task given to him by Mutsuki-kun,
It's more important than anything else.
Mutsuki-kun said that when the "living door" was summoned, it was already very close to the center of the Dead Man's Swamp, so it would not be too far from the final location. Therefore, they were not sure whether the sky in the Dead Man's Swamp was
It has always been so dark, the miasma has always been so thick, and the swamp has always been so dead.
"Don't take it lightly." Mutsuki-kun reminded them, "Watch the Five Elements items on you. Here, no matter what accidentally falls into the swamps, it can easily cause death. Don't look at the calm weather at the moment.
The ghosts of homeless soldiers lurk in these hundreds of quagmires."
Ye Linghua, who had been more relaxed at first, had to tighten her nerves again, and Han Sheng felt her wrists clenching harder again.
Mutsuki-kun finally stopped. Here, the miasma seemed to become thicker, and even the color of the air became turbid. Xie Zhe, who was following him at the front, also stopped because in front, he saw the shadow of a person.
He was not sure whether Mutsuki-kun stopped here because he had reached the place or because of that figure.
"...Is there someone? Is it a skirmisher or General Shi?"
Han Zhang poked his head from behind him and saw the shadow. If it weren't for the fact that his mouth and nose were covered by gauze and the miasma also affected the breath of the wind, he must have sniffed out the extra figure standing in front of him.
People. They all turned their attention to Mutsuki-kun, and saw that he looked calm and unafraid at all, as if he had already guessed that person's visit.
"You're here too," Mutsuki-kun said.
"Waiting for you."
This was an unfamiliar male voice, deep and pleasant, but his age could not be distinguished. I saw the figure getting closer, his steps were slow but steady, and there was no sound. His outline gradually became clearer, he was wearing a curtain hat and black curtains.
The gauze trembled slightly. His figure seemed to outline a pair of swords carried behind him.
Now, he took out the knife and held it in his hand. The sound of metal friction spread in the Swamp of the Dead, which made people feel heartbroken.
"Kanna-kun, what do you mean?"
Mutsuki-kun still asked politely, but as soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked and froze there, almost forgetting to breathe. Is this the legendary six-path impermanence who annihilated the gods in the ancient southern kingdom? How could he not
…
"I knew you would come." The silhouette of the curtain hat turned slightly to the people around him, "And your little friends."
"You also know why I'm here." Mutsuki-kun's tone was still slow and kind, "I'm here to ask General Mu to follow me and join the flow of reincarnation. Now, with its outstanding performance in commanding his Yin soldiers, in the next life
I will definitely be reincarnated as a human being. That’s what the Lord said, so I’m here for this.”
"No." Shen Wujun said simply.
Xie Zhe and the others were a little confused and more surprised. They looked at each other and did not speak, but they had a silent communication. Isn't Mr. Shen Wu a gentleman and a knight? Otherwise, why did he do it back then?
Fight the evil gods, protect the people, and get the reward that is now one of the twelve months of hell, so that life can continue? Why should he hinder Mutsuki-kun and prevent him from doing such a right and good deed? Doesn't he... know the wild skull?
Something?
"If you are Yin Yang Wang Jian, Mr. Kanna Wujun, you must be aware of General Shi's past. I don't understand why you..."
Xie Zhe always speaks out when he has something to say. I don’t know if this bluntness is good or bad. At least in front of Shen Wujun...
"Shut up." Kanna-kun said concisely, "You have no place to speak here."
He lifted up the black gauze in front of his eyes and stared at Xie Zhe with a pair of terrifying black and white eyes. Xie Zhe was really frightened, although he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. But this kind of non-anger and self-power
His eyes are so fierce that you can't help but be afraid.
Mutsuki-kun moved his tin staff back slightly, signaling them to stop talking and deal with the uninvited guest in front of them by himself. His tone remained gentle, without any emotional change.
"You must know that General Corpse's friends have perfected their merits and are still reincarnated as humans in this life and are still walking in this good world. If General Corpse leaves now, he can hope to reunite with his old friends as humans."
"...Old guy, who do you want to impress when you say this?"
Kanna-kun's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was smiling, but the corners of his mouth remained motionless. He must have been mocking something, which made the others very uncomfortable.
"I don't know what you mean, child."
Xie Zhe was frightened after hearing this. In terms of emotion and reason, Muyue-kun is definitely far superior to Kanna-kun. Although there is nothing worthy of comparison in terms of achievements, at least in terms of age alone, Mu-yue-kun is better than Kanna-kun.
Half too much. It seems that this person does not have a very good temper, and does not know much - or is unwilling to respect his elders. At least now it is clear to everyone that he is angry.
"You understand, you can't understand it anymore." Shen Wujun took two steps forward, "When Xi Shuwenxiang was still in the impermanence of the Six Paths, he was running around the world and traveled through the swamp of the dead several times. He and General Mu also 'from
Unseen. Even if the original true deity has never met each other several times, can it be more meaningful for two souls who are as blank as paper to meet after several reincarnations?
What's more, the world of mortals is so vast that it's almost impossible for them to meet. Put away your rhetoric. Although I don't think it's false, I don't think it's sincere either. Doing these unnecessary things is just like reincarnating the young girl at that time.
It's just wishful thinking of the ghosts of impermanence. Doing this will neither make anything happen in the future nor change the past at all. Give up, don't waste your efforts, you can only move yourself."
"As you said, but I don't think it is meaningless." Mutsuki-kun was not angry because of these radical words, "I came here just to find out the cause and effect. I naturally believe that everything is destined and everything is real. What's more,
...This is not the reason for you to stop here."
"I have a good reason." When Kanna-kun swung his sword, the air screamed.
"No, kid, I understand you. Those words do give you a good reason, but they are not the reason why you are standing here."
Mr. Shenwu stopped answering him. He just raised the knife and slowly pointed the tip of the knife at Xie Zhe. Xie Zhe opened his eyes wide and wondered how he was blocking his eyes just by standing next to him.
"The white copper scabbard on your waist contains the Six Paths Divine Weapon, Fengyun Slash?"
"yes……"
"Draw your sword and fight me. I want to see what kind of opponent the 'Tiandao' asked Qingyang Chukong to find for me."
