"No, we're only five miles away. I can still walk." The old village chief stopped, looked at Wuzhi Mountain not far away, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The destination is almost here, just hold on for a while and rest when you get there.
"Okay then, this mountain road is steep, I will help you walk. Just walk slowly, we are not in a hurry..."
Mo Wen held on to one of the old village chief's arms and slowed down his pace. Seeing this, Xiao Bai also held on to the old village chief's other arm, and the three of them walked forward slowly.
"Old village chief, this is not close to the village, why don't you arrange for a young man to come with us?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
"There is a serious danger in this place of inheritance. Young people are the young and strong labor force in the village, so we will not let them take risks. I am an old man, so I am not afraid of trouble..." the old village chief said casually.
When Mo Wen heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
This is because he is afraid that the young and strong laborers in the village will follow him and never come back!
"Village Chief, is it dangerous here?" Mo Wen frowned.
"When I was young, I played here and accidentally discovered this heritage site. I was young and ignorant at the time, so I walked into the cave out of curiosity. Halfway through, a strong evil spirit came from the depths of the cave.
.
Seeing that the opportunity was not good, I ran out quickly. After I ran out of the cave, I fell seriously ill when I returned. The witch doctor in the village said that I was infected by the evil spirit in the cave. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have confessed
It's inside..." the old village chief recalled.
"Since then, this place has been classified as a forbidden area, and clan members are strictly prohibited from coming here. We have always abided by this clan rule and have never been here again."
Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. When he detected his soul power just now, he noticed that there was a flash of cold air.
This aura is most likely the dangerous thing the village chief said.
After half an hour, the three of them finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Mo Wen took a look and didn't find the so-called entrance to the cave.
"Old village chief, where is the entrance?"
"It's right there! Over the years, those trees and vegetation have covered the entrance of the cave..." The old village chief raised his hand and pointed to a mountain with dense vegetation.
Mo Wen looked up and saw that the place was covered with vines and there were a few small trees stretching out from the mountain wall.
"Shuashuashua..."
Mo Wen raised his hand and fired out a few blasts of sword energy, sweeping away the vines and trees there.
The covering plants were removed, revealing a cave over one foot high.
It turns out that the trees growing in the cave were caused by tree seeds that happened to fly down to the cave entrance, took root there, and then grew over the years, blocking the entire cave entrance.
"boom!"
Mo Wen blasted out with a palm, and the tree trunk blocking the way at the entrance of the cave shattered, revealing a deep tunnel.
The old village chief couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw how easily Mo Wen had created such a momentum.
As long as he is here, the big evil in the cave should not be able to hurt you.
"Xiao Bai, let's go in!" Mo Wen turned to Xiao Bai and said. "Village Chief, thank you for bringing us here. It's not safe here. You go back first..."
"good!"
"Wait a minute, I'll go in with you too..." the old village chief said suddenly.
"Village chief, what are you doing?" Mo Wen was stunned when he heard this.
Xiaobai looked at the old village chief curiously.
"I can help. With my witchcraft, I can summon the dead to help you find your way. This dangerous thing is always there, and I don't worry..." the old village chief explained.
"Okay! Then I'll walk in front, old village chief, you walk in the middle, and Xiaobai, you stand in the back." Mo Wen nodded in agreement.
"I'll let the undead go to the front!" The old village chief was silent for a moment, and then said.
The old village chief waved his wooden stick, drawing a complicated and incomprehensible blood-red sigil, and touched the forehead of an animal skin doll with the stick.
The cave has become dark and terrifying!
"Blood Witch Yin!"
I saw the blood-red talisman painted along the wooden stick and seeping into the forehead of the doll.
The surface of the doll slowly reveals the dense meridians and blood vessels, and bright red blood seems to be flowing in those slender blood vessels.
Mo Wen looked at this scene, his pupils suddenly tightened, and his heart beat faster. Mo Wen felt his arms tighten, and it turned out that Xiao Bai was holding his arms, and his body was shaking slightly.
The doll expanded rapidly and soon turned into the appearance of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child. Its eyes were open, and the pupils were slightly dull, lacking a bit of the agility that normal people have.
"Let my puppet explore the path, just keep standing where you were, let's go in..." The old village chief directed the puppet to walk at the front.
"Is this witchcraft?"
"A branch of witchcraft, blood witchcraft. It can absorb the blood and soul of living beings as a means of cultivation, and the use of puppetry is the most common method." The old village chief explained.
"Okay, just do as the village chief said and let your puppet go to the front." Mo Wen patted Xiaobai's jade hand and motioned her to return to where she was before.
Then, a group of three people walked forward cautiously.
Mo Wen discovered that the puppet acted just like a normal person.
"Old village chief, your method is really magical. How did you practice it?" Mo Wen asked curiously.
"Unlike outsiders like you, we can bring the energy of heaven and earth into our bodies, but we can practice through meditation. Then we can make powerful puppets by collecting the blood and souls of living creatures."
After the old village chief sacrifices the puppet, the pathfinding puppet can give him feedback of danger. The puppet senses that there is no danger ahead, so it can answer Mo Wen's questions without hesitation.
When Mo Wen heard the other party's answer, he thought to himself, isn't this the revised version of Alchemist?
Meditation is equivalent to the accumulation of soul power, and puppet refining is equivalent to elixir refining.
"Does practicing this witchcraft require a certain method?"
"Hey, you want to practice witchcraft?" The old village chief heard this and said in surprise. "It seems that you can't learn this, just like we can't practice your method."
"I am indeed curious, that's what I asked. Since you can't practice, forget it!" Mo Wen smiled slightly.
He just did it on a whim and didn't really want to learn this witchcraft.
He was thinking in his mind that it was all about tempering his soul power. He wondered if that kind of meditation would be helpful in tempering his soul power.
"If you want to learn it, you can try it. This witchcraft exists in all ethnic groups and major tribes, and it is never hidden. However, this witchcraft is not easy to learn, and it is too difficult to awaken." The old village chief smiled.
"Thank you very much, old village chief. I want to see your meditation method and see if I can practice it." Mo Wen turned to look at the old village chief and grinned.
The old village chief looked at Mo Wen, the smile on his face gradually disappeared and his pupils shrank.
"careful!"
After Mo Wen heard the old village chief's prompt, he felt a cold air coming from his side, coming towards him quickly.
