Chapter 255: The Immortal Gone Without a Trace, Kowloon Hall Meeting
"Being in a bad state means that you don't get a response from God?"
"Yes, you have also seen that the people in Qijia Village, or rather the people in Ermu Mountain are going crazy."
Zheng Yao stretched out his finger and waved it in the air, and said: "It is said that this Ermu Mountain was the place where the immortal ancestors of the Bai family practiced cultivation. Therefore, the people living here have been blessed by the immortals of the Bai family for generations, especially the two surnames Qi and Lu.
In several generations, there will be experts who can directly become disciples of the Bai family's immortal ancestors, and there are countless direct disciples of the Five Immortals.
"But two years ago, the head of the Lu family died suddenly overnight. Since then, the Bai family's immortal ancestors have never responded to the prayers of the Ermu Mountain people, and the Bai family's disciples have died unexpectedly one after another, and their bodies have also mutated. To this day,
As you have just seen, there should be no disciples left alive in Ermu Mountain."
Zhou Shi thought of the strange corpses crawling out of the Qi family's ancestral graves. It seemed that those were disciples who died suddenly.
"So they were so sick that they sought medical treatment and tried to invite various gods to take care of them?"
"That's right. Big trees attract wind, especially the disciples of the Five Immortals. I don't know how many people in the world have made enemies with them. But it's just temporary, and the Buddha may not pay attention to you."
Zheng Yao looked back at the Qi family ancestral hall and said, "In fact, there is no need for enemies to come to the door. These second sisters-in-law alone are enough for them. When nothing happens to Bai Jiaxian, their group of disciples of the Five Immortals will have more glory and glory.
, sometimes the court would ask them to do things. Now, in order to deal with a few evil spirits, they actually started working as a black shop."
Zhou Shi thought to himself: So that's it, the Chuma Immortal family that Lu Yan asked me to contact is Bai Jiaxian, and I have also found his Chuma Immortal disciples. The problem is that they and I have already formed a blood feud, and it will be difficult to investigate further.
Then, getting information from Zheng Yao's mouth is the most reliable way.
"Where are you going next, Master Zheng?"
"Me? The investigation here at Ermu Mountain is almost done. I have to return to the capital to resume my life."
"It just so happens that we are going to Beijing, so why not take a companion and save yourself some legwork?"
"Well, that's what I meant." Zheng Yao put his arm around Zhou Shi's shoulders affectionately, "I also saw what you did just now. I wonder what kind of god you invited?"
Zhou Shi's heart twitched, but he didn't show it.
"It was Chatou Xian, an old man who taught me this when I left Jiangdu." He replied calmly.
"Oh, no wonder, no wonder, walking such a long way really requires the protection of a driver." Zheng Yao didn't look suspicious.
Zhou Shi "invited" the chariot god again to move the chariot and donkey from the village, then loaded the unconscious men into the chariot and urged the donkey to move quickly.
"Oh, it's nice to have a car. The horse I was riding was snatched away in Lujia Village, so I had to walk around Ermu Mountain."
As soon as he got in the car, Zheng Yao lay down casually, took off his rag shoes, and let his feet covered with blisters and calluses dry to dry.
"Master Zheng, should we avoid other villages in Ermu Mountain?"
"No need." Zheng Yao crossed his legs and replied leisurely, "I visited all the twelve villages in Ermu Mountain. Except for Qi and Lu villages, all the other nine villages went out after Bai Jiaxian's accident. After taking refuge, only the two most powerful villages refused to leave and stayed to find a way to awaken the Bai family's immortal ancestors."
"Oh, how is the situation in Nalujia Village?"
"It's worse than Qijia Village. In fact, two years later, the people in the two villages have slowly accepted the reality. Bai Jiaxian, who has protected them for generations, may really not come back, and they are looking for new backers. Qijia Village began to try There are various immortals who have left their deeds in the world, and Lujia Village is even more crazy. They refine corpses, hoping to create a corpse king or even a corpse demon!"
"Wouldn't that be very dangerous?"
"Dangerous, quite dangerous. If they really succeed, then I have to tell them where they are. But they used folk remedies they got from nowhere. The method is completely wrong. After practicing for a year, even the walking corpses can't walk." Not one was refined. But the corpses used as materials were piled up into a hill. You don’t know the smell in the village..."
Zheng Yao felt so disgusted that he fanned himself in front of his nose.
"But don't worry, I had a fight with the people from Lujia Village, and they were so scared that they all ran away. Now we just have to wait for the Zhenyin Department to send someone to deal with the mountains of corpses."
"Master Zheng is really vigorous and resolute." Zhou Shi complimented him casually, then pretended to be innocent and asked curiously, "I have heard about Bai Jiaxian and Zao Lord invited by the people of Qijia Village, but what about that one..."
"Xuan Nan Gong."
"That's right, Mr. Xuannan, what kind of immortal is this? I've never heard of it."
Zheng Yao sat up, held his chin, thought for a moment, and shook his head.
"No, it's too dangerous to talk about it here. If you want to know, you can go find a group of people to ask when you get to the capital."
"What?"
"As you know, the world has not been peaceful in recent years. Daqing Temple was massacred, Bai Jiaxian disappeared, and this year's major case in Jiangdu.
"These disturbing signs have brought an ancient organization to light. Now, they are planning something big in the capital.
"This organization is called Jiulong Hall, and it brings together strange people from all walks of life. If Shopkeeper Zhou is interested, you can come with me to find out more."
"Oh?" Zhou Shi's eyes lit up. Isn't this the organization that Mr. Mo mentioned? He was still worried that there was no good way to break into it.
Although Mr. Mo seems to have received an invitation from this organization, he does not want to join as Mr. Mo's follower if possible. Because the information he most wants to find out is about the corpse-carrying man and An Rudao, which are involved after all. It would be very inconvenient for me to find out my identity as a time traveler when I am with Mr. Mo.
Zheng Yao continued with some excitement: "The Zhenyin Division also plans to send people into it to see what they are planning, but the background of our group of patrols is too deep, they will definitely be suspicious, and you have not yet
It’s easier for masters who become famous outside the door to break in... Well, what do you think?"
Just what I want! Zhou Zhi agreed in his heart, but his reason told him not to be so positive.
He deliberately pondered for a while and then said hesitantly: "I don't know much about this Kowloon Hall. Is there any danger in it?"
"The earliest Jiulong Hall has a history of nearly a thousand years. The specific reason and where it was initiated are unknown. However, whenever a major event occurs in the world, people from the outer sect with a keen sense of smell will spontaneously gather in
Let's help each other and tide over the difficulties together. It is said that this Jiulong Hall meeting was initiated by the master of the Yin Sect's gang, and invited the masters of the outer sects in the world to participate.
"When it comes to danger, Shopkeeper Zhou, after all, you are someone who has personally experienced the Jiangdu case. Do you think that at this time, staying in a group is more dangerous than being alone?"
Zhou Shi shied away a few more words, and finally reluctantly agreed.
"The Yinhun Inn is very conspicuous, and Zuma Ke is known as the leader of the Yinmen in the world. They will definitely look for you when you enter the city and open your business. I will also try to participate so that you will not be left alone."
At this time, people's voices came from the car behind, and the guys woke up.
Zheng Yao slept soundly in the lead car like a normal person, leaving Zhou Shi to explain to the guys what happened last night.
What Zhou Shi thought of was that there was an unknown evil spirit in Qijia Village that he passed by last night. Thanks to the rescue of Zheng Yao, a Taoist priest from Maoshan who passed by, they were able to survive.
Maoshan is unique among Taoists. He always walks around the world and leaves behind many legends about demons and demons. Naturally, he is respected by the guys. In addition, the terrible memory before he fainted is deeply imprinted in his mind, so no one objects to Zheng Yao.
Walk with them.
In this way, everyone walked for another three days and finally arrived at the foot of the capital.
"What a high city wall..."
Stepping into the shadow of the capital, the guys couldn't help but let out bursts of exclamation.
"It's much higher than Jiangdu's."
Zhou Shi looked at the queue in front of him, which was at least two miles long, and rechecked the pass documents he carried to confirm that they were correct.
