With the help of Dai Li, Deng Long and the others successfully escaped from the Black Wind Temple. Out of his affection for Dai Li, Deng Long decided to take Dai Li to explore the underground palace together.
"Daili, do you really want to go to the underground palace with us?" Deng Long frowned and asked.
Dai Li stood up and said quietly: "Tie Fei and I had a falling out. I can't go back to the castle. I'm not familiar with you Chinese people. Where else can I go?"
Deng Long thought for a while and realized that what Delly said was true. Tie Fei had many capable people. Even if Delly had superpowers, she couldn't deal with so many people. In the end, Delly openly fell out with Tie Fei to save herself.
Yes, letting Delly go back is undoubtedly asking her to die.
"But Delly! Aren't you vampires allowed to live in the sun?" Duan Yuxuan asked in confusion as he touched his nose.
It was obvious that Delly ignored this question, her face suddenly darkened, she sat down on the stone, pouting, unable to say a word. This was a very serious problem. Vampires were naturally afraid of the sun, and it was impossible for them to talk to Deng.
Like a dragon, he can walk in the sunshine openly
Seeing Delly's sad look, the hearts of the four Deng Long brothers felt inexplicably soft. This beautiful vampire was obviously stumped by this question.
"Xiaolong, don't you have a lot of strange skills? See if you can help Daili solve this problem," Li Kangkai said
"Brother Li, it's not that I don't want to use it. In fact, I have almost forgotten all about Taoism in the past few years. Except for the Divine Protective Mantra of the Heavenly Master and the Five Elements True Thunder Technique, I can't remember anything else at the moment."
Deng Long spread his hands and said helplessly
In the past few years, Deng Long has enjoyed family happiness in France. In addition to reading books and practicing martial arts to strengthen his body, Deng Long has never practiced Taoism at all. He even deliberately rejected Taoism. Taoism is just like practicing martial arts. It must be practiced every day to be able to practice against the enemy.
Keep it in mind so that you can use it smoothly
"You disappoint me so much!" Li Kangkai pointed at Deng Long and cursed
"Forget it, you don't have to worry about me. Du Juan and I are waiting in the tunnel for you to get the relics back." Seeing Deng Long in trouble, Dai Li sighed and said
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the underworld and ask Master Zhong Kui. Maybe he can help us." Deng Long thought for a while, jumped up from the stone, and said excitedly
Li Kangkai and Ma Tiexin saw before their eyes the Celestial Master Zhong Kui, who was wearing a red robe and had a ferocious face, and who came and went without a trace. Deng Long was already sitting on the ground, preparing to cast the "Spirit Charm" to go to the underworld.
Deng Long tried several spells but failed to attract the 'ghost boy' to show him the way. His own ghost could not leave his body. He couldn't help but secretly thought that he was too careless and even forgot the spirit-guiding spell.
Deng Long opened his eyes, his face full of depression. Li Kangkai and Ma Tiexin hurried over and asked, "Xiaolong, what's wrong?"
Deng Long smiled awkwardly and said: "It's his grandma's fault. I actually forgot the spirit-guiding spell. The ghosts and ghosts can't get out of the body and can't go down to the underworld."
"Grandma, what have you been doing these past few years! You have even forgotten this!" Ma Tiexin glanced at Deng Long angrily, lit a cigarette, handed it to Deng Long and said: "Think about it, time
There’s more to it”
Deng Long looked at his watch. It was still past one o'clock. There were still several hours until dawn. There was still enough time.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Deng Long slowly smoked a cigarette and tried hard to remember the magic formula for the soul-inducing spell. After one cigarette, Deng Long's mind was so confused that he couldn't remember the magic formula for the soul-inducing spell.
Seeing the helplessness and confusion on Deng Long's face, Li Kangkai leaned on the stone and said to himself: "It's over, it's over, this yin and yang detective has become fire and water, and the word yin and yang must be removed from now on."
"Brother Li, don't say that. I believe Brother Deng! Brother Deng, think about it again. Is there any other way to enter the underworld besides the soul-drawing spell?" Ever since I heard from my grandfather's pangolin that Deng Long was in the Rehe Mountain.
Duan Yuxuan has an inexplicable admiration and trust for Deng Long.
When Deng Long heard what Duan Yuxuan said, he slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "Oh, why did I forget that the soul can also leave the body and go to the underworld?"
Deng Long threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, sat cross-legged on the ground, and activated the spiritual power in his body to force his soul out of his body. The soul was invisible and flew straight to the ground.
When he arrived underground, Deng Long encountered a new problem. This was not Shanghai Beach. Deng Long was very familiar with the road leading to the underworld. In the Gansu and Shaanxi provinces, Deng Long could not even touch the door to the underworld. When he got underground, he discovered that it was
In a strange world, Deng Long floated helplessly in the air, watching the ghosts coming and going, and there was nothing he could do to ask.
It turns out that without the guidance of the guiding boy, Deng Long could not find the underworld at all, and he had no way to inquire about the underworld. Why? The soul is intangible and does not belong to the three souls and seven souls, let alone ordinary ghosts.
If you can't see it, even if your cultivation level is better than that of a judge, it will be difficult for a Taoist like Shen Yandao to detect it (this has been explained in detail in "Love in a Fallen City")
Deng Long was wandering in the underworld in a daze. When he was helpless and helpless, all the ghosts were trying to avoid him. A red figure shot towards him, exuding powerful spiritual power. Deng Long was overjoyed. He didn't expect to meet him in this place.
It was Celestial Master Zhong Kui who came to catch ghosts. While Zhong Kui was inspecting the ten palaces, he suddenly felt a familiar power of the Five Elements appear in the underworld. He knew in his heart that it must be a strange man from the fifth generation who came to the underworld, so he rushed over to take a look.
, it is the helpless Deng Long Yuanshen
"Strange man, long time no see!" Zhong Kui said with a loud voice like a bell.
"My Heavenly Master, my disciple Deng Long is looking for you!" Deng Long bowed respectfully.
"Odd man, why do you appear in this place under the jurisdiction of Lord Yama of the Seventh Palace?" Zhong Kui touched his beard and asked with a smile.
Deng Long was shocked. He did not expect that he would actually be under the jurisdiction of Di Qing, Lord of the Seventh Palace. Presumably, this place on the northern border of Gansu and Shaanxi was under the jurisdiction of the Lord of the Seventh Palace, Di Qing, the famous general of the Han Dynasty.
"Celestial Master, don't talk about this for now. If you have something important to do, please ask Heavenly Master for help," Deng Long said.
Deng Long told Zhong Kui about Dai Li in detail
After hearing this, Master Zhong Tianshi frowned and said, "Deng Long, are you sure this vampire is not my ghost from the underworld?"
Deng Long nodded and said: "Celestial Master, I understand the rules of the underworld. I will not mess around, let alone deceive the Celestial Master."
Zhong Kui touched his beard and thought for a while, "Of course I can trust strange people. I just need to ask more clearly. You know the rules of the underworld. If there is a wild ghost alive, I must catch it, let alone help her."
Zhong Kui took out a paper talisman with red killing marks from his large sleeve robe and said: "This blazing sun talisman can absorb the aura of the scorching sun. It was originally used to make black and white impermanent and revive the dead souls. Now I give it to you
One piece, use with caution!"
Deng Long happily took over the Fierce Sun Talisman and quickly thanked him.
Zhong Kui said with a solemn face: "Deng Long, remember, if you want to go to the underworld in the future, you have to use the 'Spirit-Drawing Spell'. The lower realm is very dangerous. If you encounter other inspectors, they will treat you as a powerful monster. I will be in pain."
Killer, it’s not going to be good.”
Deng Long's face was solemn, he bowed and said: "Thank you Heavenly Master for reminding me, I will keep it in my heart."
Deng Long respected Zhong Kui very much. Zhong Kui saved his life and he was both a teacher and a friend.
"Deng Long, the underworld already knew about your removal of Shura last time. It has been recorded in your merit book. And that vixen has been reincarnated with the help of Po Meng," Zhong Kui said.
"Really? Nishang has been reincarnated, that's great!" Deng Long said happily. For sacrificing his century-old cultivation and life, Xiao Nishang, Deng Long has always been very guilty and uneasy. Now that Xiao Nishang has been reincarnated, Deng Long feels
My lower body suddenly relaxed, just like a person who has traveled a long distance suddenly had a heavy burden lifted off his shoulders, feeling extremely relaxed.
"Deng Long, are you planning to go again this time?" Zhong Kui knew that Deng Long must have encountered difficulties when he went to the underworld, otherwise he would not ask for help easily.
Deng Long explained the Dunhuang suicide note and the underground palace treasures in detail. Zhong Kui nodded, with a hint of embarrassment on his face and said: "Deng Long, this underground palace is not as simple as you think, but I can't tell you.
, I can help you when necessary, even Yan Jun can help you, you must be cautious."
Deng Long saw Zhong Kui's expression. Zhong Kui didn't say anything, but he also knew that there must be something related to the underworld in this underground palace. Once it was involved in the underworld, there must be very powerful ghosts and gods. No wonder Zhong Kui also looked embarrassed.
"Thank you, Heavenly Master, for reminding me. I'll say goodbye to you now!" Deng Long said, worried about the safety of Ma Tiexin and the others.
"Hold on, kid, take this." Zhong Kui handed Deng Long a stack of yellow origami and said with a cold face.
Deng Long opened it and saw that it was some Taoism that he had forgotten. He quickly thanked him.
Zhong Kui said coldly: "Odd man, Taoism cannot be wasted casually. There will be many places to use it in the future."
Deng Long knew that he had neglected his Taoist skills, and Zhong Kui must have been unhappy. He quickly thanked him and said, "Thank you, Heavenly Master, for your teachings. I will keep this in mind, disciple."
Farewell to Heavenly Master Zhong Kui, Deng Long returned to the physical body with the Burning Sun Talisman. The sky was almost bright, and Li Kangkai and Dai Li were waiting anxiously.
Seeing Deng Long wake up, several people quickly gathered around
"Xiaolong, how come you have found Master Zhong Kui?" Ma Tiexin asked eagerly.
Deng Long smiled and stood up. With a flick of his wrist, a golden talisman appeared on his hand. Dai Li and Du Juan hurriedly avoided it. The golden light of the talisman made them feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Xiaolong, is this it? Can it be done?" Li Kangkai asked in surprise.
"This talisman is called the Fierce Sun Talisman. It can absorb the energy of the scorching sun. As long as Daili puts this talisman on her head, she can walk under the scorching sun," Deng Long said with a smile.
Dai Li and Du Juan looked surprised. They didn't expect that the problem that had troubled the vampires for thousands of years would be solved by such a small talisman in Deng Long's hand.
"Daili, come here!" Deng Long said
Delly squinted her eyes and walked over anxiously
"Daily, do you have a cloak? If I remember correctly, each of you vampires should have a cloak," Deng Long said with a smile.
A vampire's cloak can be said to be one of the magic weapons of a vampire. Only with a cloak can you perform some supernatural powers, and Delly is no exception.
Delly nodded, took a long breath, and gave a sweet drink. Her whole body was instantly shrouded in a large black cloak. However, Delly's eyes instantly turned blood red, and her gleaming fangs also stretched out from her mouth.
The whole body exudes a sinister aura
It turns out that this vampire cloak is usually not used. It is only used when preparing for war. Seeing Delly's murderous look, Deng Long smiled and said: "Deli, you don't look good like this."
Delly's voice also turned cold, and she said coldly: "I don't want to either, but this is beyond my control. Vampires are all like this."
Deng Long smiled, walked to Dai Li, carefully put the talisman paper on the inner layer of Dai Li's cloak and hood, helped Dai Li put on the cloak and hood, and said: "I'll make do with it for now, and I'll change it when I get to Dunhuang."
A normal cloak is fine.”
Delly only felt that the magic talisman was attached to her cloak, but she didn't feel the rejection just now. She couldn't help but smile and tried her best to say gently: "Thank you, Deng Long!"
"Daili, this is good, but I personally think you'd better bring a face towel, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it if others see it." Duan Yuxuan pointed at Dai Li's two cold fangs and said
"Oh, I have a face towel. I'll bring it to Miss right now." Du Juan quickly took out a black face towel from his body and gave it to Delly. As Delly's personal emissary, Du Juan wears a face towel most of the time, rarely.
Showing one's true self is the so-called "do as the Romans do when in town". Dujuan even changed the name of Dai Li. Of course, this was Dai Li's request.
Deng Long looked at Delly who was wearing a scarf, lowered the brim of Delly's hat a little, took a step back, looked at her carefully and said with a loud smile: "Very good, this way there will be absolutely no problem."
"Haha, welcome Dai Li to join our team!" Li Kangkai laughed.
"Well, it's almost dawn. Let's take a good rest first and then set off to Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes at dawn." Ma Tiexin waved his hand and said
The four brothers knew that time was tight and it was time to take a good rest after a busy night. They each leaned on the rocks and took a nap.
Daili and Dujuan are indeed masters and servants of the same mind. At this moment, Daili is going to Dunhuang with Deng Long and his party to find treasures, but Dujuan cannot go with them, because more people is not a good thing. Not to mention attracting attention, what will happen then?
It is also difficult to take care of the cuckoo
The master and the servant had a good farewell, and whispered parting words with great reluctance.
At dawn, Daili ushered in the first day of living under the sun in her life. After saying goodbye to Dujuan with great joy, Daili followed Deng Long and four others into the yellow sand of the desert, and began their exciting exploration of Dunhuang.
treasure journey
The five people stepped into the yellow sand with complicated emotions. No one knew what was waiting for them in this vast desert. Maybe it was success, maybe they were buried in the yellow sand forever...
