The Wu family also feels the same for the Lin family's tragic experience.
Due to their mutual sympathy, the relationship between the two families suddenly became much closer.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, although there is only one day left to go to Qingbufang, it is said that the remaining road will pass through many dangerous places. How about you and I combine the fleet into one and hold together to keep warm and move forward together?"
The eldest son of the Lin family is named Lin Ying. He is a middle-aged man with a delicate appearance but an abnormally burly figure. His body is much larger than that of ordinary people. At this time, his eyes moved slightly and he suggested.
"Forget it, this is inappropriate." Wu Renxun hesitated for a moment and then refused.
The Wu family's fleet is not small. If the Lin family's fleet is added in, the number of people will be nearly 30,000. Moreover, the gathering of so many strangers will definitely attract the attention of ghost cultivators, and it will also be a huge attraction to the lost souls.
, it is very likely to cause huge trouble.
"What's wrong? I think Taoist fellow Taoist's worries are purely unnecessary. Well, Taoist fellow Taoist, why don't you go back tonight and think about it again, and just give an answer tomorrow. With Taoism, when everyone adds firewood, the flames will rise. One more point
The more strength you have, the more help you have. As far as I know, if you want to enter Qingbufang, the fierce places on the periphery cannot be passed by one or two foundations." Seeing Wu Renxun's refusal, Lin Ying continued to persuade.
"Okay, let's discuss this matter tomorrow." Wu Renxun said with a smile.
Subsequently, at Wu Renxun's request, the Lin family's motorcade retreated a considerable distance to prevent any accidents from affecting the Wu family. Finally, the Lin family formed a car array and set up camp on a flat land a mile away.
At this time, while the afterglow of the setting sun was still lingering, the clansmen of the two families naturally communicated with each other and began to exchange urgently needed things with each other.
When the spirit has been depressed for a long time, the need to relieve stress is much greater. If a man and a woman meet their eyes, they will invite each other to the tent.
The elders of the two families adopted a tacit attitude towards this.
Lu Zhong was wandering outside and naturally received many invitations, but he refused them all.
The invitees were only at the Qi Refining Stage. Compared to the Nascent Soul Stage Kun cultivators who were nourished by spiritual energy, these people were really difficult to see. In his eyes, they were not even qualified to be a cauldron.
Compared with the affairs between men and women, he was more interested in the popular food in the northern part of the mountain.
Wherever there is water and soil, one person can be nourished.
Food in different places naturally has local characteristics.
Just like the same wontons, here I prefer to add a kind of elixir seasoning called "red medicinal seeds". The taste is similar to the chili pepper in Lu Zhong's previous life. Adding it with the filling can make the wontons taste better.
In addition to being rich, it can also play a very obvious role in improving freshness.
Compared to the Sturgeon Dragon Emperor, it is also completely different.
For the sake of future happiness, Lu Zhong spent some spiritual stones to buy some seeds from the Wu family and planned to take them back to be planted in the spiritual medicine garden.
The night is getting darker.
This is when Wu Renxun came to visit.
They are discussing the merger of the two teams.
Lu Zhong had a casual attitude towards this. As a middle-stage Nascent Soul monk, it goes without saying that he was strong enough. There was no problem that couldn't be solved. It didn't matter whether the two companies merged or not.
Wu Renxun, after a period of consideration, was moved by Lin Ying's proposal.
The monks from the Wu family sent out before reported that there were a large number of wandering soul-losers on the only way to Qingbufang. Most of these monsters were transformed from mortals, but there were also many monks-lost souls among them.
The number reaches more than 10,000, which can pose a threat to the convoy.
According to Spirit Eagle's reconnaissance, this is basically the case ahead.
So the best way at the moment is naturally for the two teams to stay together.
Just when Wu Renxun wanted to speak.
But at this moment, Lu Zhong, who was sitting quietly, opened his eyes and moved his gaze to the northeast with interest. He could sense that a slender figure suddenly appeared in that direction.
I don't know what I did, but a cold breath came out.
Almost instantly, this aura covered the two camps like a torrent.
Wu Renxun was unable to notice this. After being covered by this cold aura, his original expression suddenly became dull. Not only him, but also the other Wu family members in the camp, and even the Lin family members next door.
A similar situation occurred.
This situation is like falling into a dream.
"Interesting!" Lu Zhong chuckled.
In order to figure out what was going on, he raised his hand and released an avatar, and deliberately let go of the resistance so that the avatar would be covered by this aura.
…
After Lu Zhong took over the body, the sound of people suddenly came to his ears.
His eyelids trembled slightly and he opened his eyes, but he was surprised to find that he had arrived at a market at some point. There was a constant flow of people around him, and the sounds of bargaining could be heard endlessly. It was as lively as if it was the New Year, and the shops on both sides were all hung up.
A big red lantern with a big word "happiness" on it.
There are still a lot of memories in my mind for no reason.
Even his identity has increased, and he has become a guest invited to the wedding.
"Am I falling into a fantasy?" Lu Zhong thought thoughtfully.
After trying to remove the takeover of the incarnation, he returned to the outside world smoothly. The strength of the Nascent Soul's cultivation base was too strong and it was not corroded by the cold aura at all.
Now, as long as Lu Zhong is willing, he can use the "Thunder Approach" thunder method at any time and use the powerful aura of heavenly calamity to disperse the cold aura that envelopes this place.
However, Lu Zhong did not do so immediately.
Glancing to the northwest, he saw clearly the appearance of the slender figure. It was a bride wearing a red headdress, and the vision was filled with a strong gloomy aura.
Lu Zhong couldn't help but be curious about her origins, and thought to himself: "If what I expected is correct, I should have met a ghost cultivator now. Then again, this power is really weird, it can actually make the foundation
The monks were pulled into the environment without realizing it."
As far as Lu Zhong knows, ghost cultivators in this world have similar experiences to demon cultivators. Due to the long-term absorption of negative energy Yin spiritual energy, the body has been greatly affected. While gradually becoming neither human nor ghost, and transforming into a ghost,
It is extremely rare for people to remain mentally clear.
The person in front of me seems to be an exception.
"Perhaps he is a ghost cultivator with a heritage..." Lu Zhong guessed.
Before the rise of immortality, ghost cultivation was as prosperous as witchcraft. However, later, evil spirits were suppressed by immortality, and ghost cultivation suddenly became a sourceless water, and then gradually declined.
"It seems that Middle-earth has experienced great changes. After a large number of creatures died due to the soaring black clouds, the Yin spiritual energy in the world suddenly became strong. In addition, the power of the sect family declined due to the disease of soullessness. It can no longer be suppressed as powerfully as before. These inherited ghosts
Only Xiu dares to show up."
When Lu Zhong thought of this, he had been troubled and confused for a long time, and it solved a lot of problems.
He had a guess at what the death wave He Yun was talking about was probably a double disaster between the number of lost souls and the rise of ghost cultivators.
Only a crisis of this level can make the Immortal Transformation Sect lower its arrogant head and choose to make peace with the southern barbarian threat, so as to ensure that the source of supplies is constant, and it can concentrate all its strength to fight against the lost souls and ghost cultivators.
middle.
Glancing at the ghost cultivator dressed as a bride, Lu Zhong gave up the idea of stabbing him to death with a thunder gun. This ghost cultivator couldn't reach the early stage of pill formation, so it would be very easy for him to kill the ghost cultivator.
"With my troublesome physique, there is a high probability that I will encounter Nascent Soul stage ghost cultivators in the future, and the chance of conflict is not small. It is necessary to understand the inherited ghost cultivators in advance."
Seeing that the Wu and Lin families were only experiencing a slow loss of body energy and their lives were not seriously affected in a short period of time, Lu Zhong took over the avatar again and prepared to go to the illusion to have a look, so that he could know that the ghost cultivators were pulling people into the illusion.
The purpose. He always felt that the ghost cultivator dressed up as a bride was not out of his own preference.
…
Open your eyes again.
Lu Zhong found that he had changed places and came to a grand mansion. Everything around him was dressed in red and colorful. Red lanterns with the word "happy" were hung on the eaves. The suona trumpet kept playing festive music. It was obvious that a wealthy family was holding a wedding.
.
Following the flow of people, he sat on the seat.
Table for eight people.
The table has already been filled with dishes, all of which are ordinary people's dishes, such as sweet and sour carp, Sixi meatballs, etc. There is not even half of spiritual food in sight. It is worth mentioning that the cooking techniques are very particular, and the color
The fragrance is well mastered, and it is obviously made by a famous master.
Smelling the fragrance, one can't help but twitch their fingers.
"It's a pity. It would be better if it wasn't an illusion."
Lu Zhong regretfully put down Kuaizi and turned his attention to the people at the same table.
Looking at the clothes of the first six people, they are all people from two car teams, both mortals and Qi-refining monks. At this moment, their faces are stiff and their eyes are dull. At a glance, it is clear that they are trapped in an illusion and cannot extricate themselves.
As for the remaining two...
One was a girl wearing old clothes. Although her face was stiff, she was more frightened. Looking at her eyes that were moving randomly, it was obvious that she still maintained her intelligence and clarity.
"This is it!" Lu Zhong exclaimed softly and looked at her more.
As if confirming something, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Then, he turned his attention to the last person.
This man looks like an octogenarian, with messy gray beard and hair, a thin figure and no flesh on his cheeks, but his sharp eyes are unparalleled. Although he is wearing a gray preacher's robe that has been washed until it turns white, but combined with the sword case on his back,
He was expected to be a swordsman practicing swordsmanship.
What's interesting is that this sword cultivator also hides his cultivation level.
Due to the incarnation of his body, Lu Zhong could not tell his exact state, but one thing that is certain is that, at least above the foundation building stage, he is most likely to have cultivated in the pill forming stage.
Sensing Lu Zhong's gaze, Jian Xiu's eyes flashed with surprise.
Then, his lips moved and he said through the voice:
"You, you can actually escape from the illusion?"
Hearing Jian Xiu's words, Lu Zhong understood the reason for his surprise. The reason was that due to his revealed cultivation, when both Wu and Lin monks were trapped in illusions and unable to extricate themselves, he, who was in the early stage of foundation building, was not immune to the temptation.
The effect of the illusion is indeed too abrupt.
After thinking about it, Lu Zhong made up a reason and said calmly: "This senior, the reason why I was able to escape from the illusion is because I practiced a secret technique passed down from my family."
"Secret technique?"
In this regard, the sword cultivator has no doubts about him.
The Lu Zhong in front of him, both in terms of temperament and specific performance, looks like a descendant of a large family. An elite monk with such a background possesses a secret technique passed down from his family, and can break free from the "ghost cultivation of alchemy".
"Rule Illusion" is not impossible.
"Since you are not controlled by the illusion, I have something to entrust to you. Now take this girl away with me, as far away as possible!" Jian Xiu pointed at the girl sitting at the same table with the two of them and said in an anxious voice.
"Senior, why are you so anxious?" Lu Zhong asked.
Although the sword cultivator in front of him didn't know where he came from, he seemed to know the purpose of the ghost cultivator to pull people into the illusion. Now that he had met someone with knowledge, he naturally refused to leave easily.
At this moment, all the guests suddenly turned their heads and looked towards the door.
"Woo..." The girl sensed something and was extremely frightened.
"Oh, why didn't you listen to my advice! It's too late now..." The swordsman sighed, and stopped trying to persuade Lu Zhong to leave. Instead, he took off the sword case from behind, as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Senior, can you explain now why you let this junior leave just now?" Lu Zhong continued to ask.
Hearing this, the sword cultivator stared at Lu Zhong's eyes for a while and then said: "That's fine, I'll just let you be a sensible person so that you don't end up dying!"
Then he pointed to the door, where a red carpet had been rolled out.
A figure wearing a bright red wedding dress and a red hijab was walking slowly from the door. From the snow-white neck inadvertently exposed under the hijab, as well as the slender and graceful figure, it can be seen that this is a beauty, and she is
The one with quite an outstanding temperament.
The moment she appeared, Lu Zhong suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
Is it dangerous to be avatar?
Next to him, the sword cultivator continued to transmit the message, half sarcastically and half regretfully, saying: "Junior, have you also sensed that as soon as the bride appeared, Lingjue immediately started to call the police? Let me tell you, Lingjue's warning this time is true.
.Ghost cultivators who have inherited ghost cultivators are not like those lonely ghosts. The techniques they practice are different from the immortal techniques. They need to follow the rules of the techniques to kill people in order to maximize the power of the techniques."
I see!
When Lu Zhong heard this, he finally understood the purpose of the ghost cultivator.
Then again, he has never seen this in the classics, and it is obviously the result of the blockade of knowledge. In this world where spiritual energy is increasingly exhausted, competition among monks has become increasingly fierce. In China, where the immortality is at its peak, this...
This kind of thing can be said to be inevitable.
As for what rules ghost cultivators follow.
Lu Zhong didn't need the sword cultivator to remind him, he could guess it in his heart.
Have a wedding.
If there were no accidents, this would definitely be a bloody wedding, followed by a massacre in which all the guests present would die.
"This ghost cultivation method is very similar to evil spirits." Lu Zhong thought of a past incident.
Before the Great Wall of Spiritual Qi was blocked, evil spirits were common in various parts of the Southern Barbarians. Even the Bihai area under the jurisdiction of the Bihai Sect was also plagued by a large number of evil spirits, and among them was such a "Ghost Bride" who had never been able to get in.
A low-level disciple of the Shaobi Haizong.
That's why he was so impressed.
According to the records, the Ghost Bride kills people, like all evil spirits, and must meet the corresponding rules. The dead Bihai Sect disciples were killed by the Ghost Bride during the wedding because they accidentally triggered the killing rules. Each of them died in an extremely ugly manner.
miserable.
Lu Zhongneng could see that the rule illusion used by the ghost cultivator was obviously different from the murder rules of Xie Sui. Xie Sui was a passive trigger, while ghost cultivator seemed to be a forced trigger. Once pulled into their rule illusion, as long as they could not escape before the node,
They will be killed by ghost cultivators.
No wonder the sword cultivator said it was too late.
