Fang Linyan first put the banknote into his pocket, then studied the token and found that it was of no use to him at all, because it was just a token to open the door, not even a key. This kind of thing was
It can be useful only if it is matched with the password.
However, after looking through the ledger for a while, he found several valuable clues.
The first clue is that today the little Taoist priest specially went to purchase an ingredient called "mullet fish".
This kind of fish is very valuable and rare, but the little Taoist priest purchased fifty of them, which was a huge expense. Moreover, he clearly understood that the "Shangshi" was particularly fond of this fish.
The second clue is that another account book says that today's general cleaning is carried out. The reason is that the "Shangshi" likes a clean environment, so even though he did it just once the day before yesterday, he can't slack off, so he has to pay an extra aromatherapy fee.
The third clue is that the people from the "Juyuan Palace" paid out a reward of one thousand taels of gold yesterday, and it was clearly written in the account book that it was "following the old practice."
These three clues were of little value when separated separately. Fang Linyan combined them and pondered them carefully for a while, but still found some missing points.
After he pondered for a while, he simply took out something, which was the ghost cultivation weapon that he had accidentally obtained before:
Soul Gathering Cauldron!
Because Fang Linyan does not know how to cultivate ghosts, this thing is equivalent to a disposable item. As long as its "soul gathering" function is used, it will be directly destroyed.
He Chun was able to stay in it all the time because he only used it to protect his body and warm his soul.
Fang Linyan now felt that there seemed to be a very important information hidden in this account book, but he couldn't figure it out, so he felt that this thing would come in handy.
Of course, space authentication props don't need to be as complicated as those used by ghosts. Fang Linyan directly chose to "use" them and felt an invisible force spreading out from the Soul Gathering Cauldron.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Linyan followed the prompts and placed it next to Xiao Daotong's body, then took out the remaining soul-inducing incense, lit it and inserted it inside.
As the green smoke of the birds rose, the body of the Soul Gathering Cauldron also began to shine brightly and darkly, and the surroundings began to become gloomy, with a swirling sinister wind constantly blowing.
However, there were also wailing and sad sounds at the same time.
Fang Linyan had already seen this once, and was mentally prepared. Seeing that these little Taoist priests were dying, they began to gather their souls, and they would soon turn into new souls, so he simply prepared the soul fire talisman, ready to scare the monkeys.
A disobedient person comes to show his authority.
Blindly being gentle will only be regarded as weak and polite by others. Only a big stick in one hand and a toffee in the other can keep the enemy honest.
However, a sudden change occurred! Fang Linyan suddenly heard a loud "bang" sound coming from behind! Looking back, it turned out that the door of the dilapidated Taoist temple suddenly opened, and the copper lock that originally locked the door was also Kara
There was an explosion, turning into little green phosphorescent lights that dissipated in the cold rain and wind.
Immediately afterwards, a black wind blew out of it! The wind rushed out violently, swept over the living souls of the little Taoist priests, tore them apart mercilessly, and were swept into the wind.
Then, Jie Jie burst into laughter from the strong wind:
"What is this? Such a mellow soul-inducing fragrance, it's really a blessing!"
After saying this, the black wind will roll towards the soul-gathering cauldron, as if it wants to seize the cauldron and get the incense, all at once!!
Fang Linyan's eyes narrowed slightly at this time, and without saying a word, a fire charm flew out. Obviously, what appeared at this time must be a very strong and unruly old ghost. For such an old man, you can't beat him in pain.
If you do, I can ride on your head and shit in a matter of minutes.
After a loud "boom", the soul fire talisman exploded, and the faint smell of sulfur rushed to the face. Along with it, a yang and harmonious breath spread everywhere, sweeping away the oppressive coldness.
The sinister wind was also suffocated by it, and immediately flew away to the side. At this time, Fang Linyan had already stepped forward to block the soul-gathering cauldron, then stretched out his hand and pinched out the ignited soul-drawing cauldron.
Xiang, and shouted angrily:
"You wild ghost is so brave, you actually dare to ruin my good deeds!"
Then Fang Linyan checked the Soul Gathering Cauldron by the way and found that it was in good condition. The description showed that it was not damaged and the number of uses was (1/1).
You know, this thing has only one chance to be used. It should be that these little Taoist priests were interrupted before successfully gathering their souls, so they are still in an unused state.
The sinister wind stopped after flying five or six feet, and a somewhat old voice came from inside:
"What good thing did I do to you?"
Fang Linyan raised the few remaining Soul Fire Talisman in his hand, and then said angrily:
"I'm about to use the soul-binding secret technique to make the new souls of these little Taoist priests available to me! You just stepped in and swallowed their remaining souls. Are you still saying that?"
The ghost sneered after hearing this, but he didn't answer. He aimed at Fang Linyan again and rushed over. This time Fang Linyan was also angry. Do you really think I can't deal with you? So this time he shot two talismans in succession!
"Boom, boom, boom!" After this series of explosions came, the core area expanded to almost ten square meters. The rising flames immediately involved the ghost, and it was about to severely damage it.
However, this evil spirit also had two brushes when it came up. It actually blew up a gust of evil wind again, instantly increased its speed, and narrowly dodged Fang Linyan's blow, and aimed straight at him.
However, Fang Linyan was already prepared. He pulled out something with his backhand, which was the morning light fan that he had snatched from the palace maid who practiced the ghost way before, and he slapped the ghost directly.
This fan seemed to be written lightly, but a large amount of light spilled out from it. It was like the afterglow of the setting sun or the clear light of the full moon. It swept over the earth like the return of spring, blowing the ghost away.
.
It happened that when two soul fire talismans were fired in succession, its power would last for more than four seconds before fading away. As a result, the ghost was seriously injured by a roll of vitality fanned by the morning light, and then was forced to retreat to the fire talisman.
In the area of raging flames, there was a shrill scream, and it turned into a black light and flew back to the dilapidated Taoist temple.
Fang Linyan was about to take the opportunity to pursue him, but at this time, news of someone coming from a distance came from the drone. He did not dare to delay, put away the soul-gathering cauldron and soul-inducing incense, and rolled directly to the side.
in the darkness.
As a result, two disciples, a man and a woman, came together. They were quite young. They were probably a pair of adulterers.
Yu Qingzi/Yu Shuzi should be the oldest in the Tao Te Sect at this time, and Dong Zhenzi, who was captured before, should be the second generation disciple. Together, these two people should be the third generation disciple of the Tao Tao Sect.
The man and woman saw the corpses of several Taoist boys and didn't take it seriously, because the enemy who attacked Huitianfang tonight was very powerful, and the Daode Sect suffered heavy casualties. They had seen too many more tragic scenes.
The male disciple went directly to the wooden building in the center near the lake, and at the same time encouraged the female disciple:
"Xiaohui, you heard just now that the sect master has done something very hateful. The sect will definitely not tolerate us. The current situation is that we all run away."
"Uncle Mingzhen has died in the battle. It is natural for us as juniors to inherit his legacy. Besides, you and I have to join forces to keep warm. If we can't get some powerful magic pills, wouldn't we have to let others do it?"
Slaughter?”
The female disciple had already fallen in love with him when she got up, nodded and said:
"Okay senior brother, I will listen to you."
After the couple went to the small building, they plundered it and left. Seeing that the place was quiet again, Fang Linyan appeared, walked to the dilapidated Taoist temple, opened the door and walked in.
However enter.
It was very dusty and very dilapidated. Fang Linyan looked around and then sneered:
"Stop hiding and come out honestly."
But there was silence everywhere, but there was no movement. Fang Linyan said impatiently:
"I don't have time to waste with you. You should understand by now that Tao De Sect is finished. The trees have fallen and the hozens have scattered. Everyone is running for their lives. I count to three. If you don't come out, I will burn your ruined temple. Anyway, there will be no
People will come to put out the fire."
As a result, before Fang Linyan could count down, he heard a sad and angry voice coming from the altar table:
"I've already swallowed my courage and retreated here, why are you still being aggressive!"
Fang Linyan laughed angrily and said:
"Is this my fault for feelings? Am I being aggressive?"
"Have I made it very clear? I want to summon the souls of these little Taoist priests, and then ask about the situation inside Huitianfang."
"You fucking rushed out, first scattered the new souls that I had finally gathered, and then you wanted to snatch the things in my hands. Now you still think that I went too far to cause trouble for you?"
The voice said excitedly:
"You don't understand. I have always been sealed by evil people with soul traps. This time the Tao De Sect was in chaos. This evil person must have died in the turmoil, so I was able to escape."
"I have a deep hatred against Tao Te Sect, and those few Taoist priests are very disrespectful to me, so I swallowed them."
"What does it have to do with me?" Fang Linyan said straightforwardly.
"You said this is none of my business! This is an issue between you and the Taoist Sect. Does it have anything to do with you interfering with my plan?"
The voice roared filial piety:
"I'm telling you, kid, don't go too far. Don't think that I'm afraid of you. In the worst case, we'll both die together!"
Fang Linyan was shocked when he heard this sentence at first, but after seeing the desolate and dilapidated situation around him, and more importantly, the Mobius mark, he didn't even react at all. He immediately looked up to the sky and said with a smile:
"Okay, come together and give me a try!"
After finishing speaking, Fang Linyan arrogantly kicked the altar table and prepared to set it on fire.
Seeing Fang Linyan's behavior, the voice finally gave up and sighed:
"That's all, don't you just want to know the secrets inside Huitianfang? I can tell you."
Fang Linyan said disdainfully:
"Can you tell me? What secrets can a lonely wanderer like you know?"
After hearing Fang Linyan's question, the voice immediately said angrily:
"What are you talking about? I don't know the secret here? Why are you such a dirty kid talking so nonsense!"
"Let me tell you, I personally drew the blueprints and supervised the construction of this damn place!"
"I remember every passage here, even every toilet, clearly!"
Probably because he was really angry, this old ghost appeared from the spirit tablet. He looked like a slovenly middle-aged Taoist priest in his forties, but his appearance was a bit unsightly.
Fang Linyan had played a board game called Three Kingdoms in his own world, and the appearance of Pang Tong in it looked very similar to this old ghost.
Fang Linyan suddenly thought of something, looked up to the sky and said haha:
"You old ghost, you really don't have a word of truth in your mouth! Your name is clearly written on this tablet as Wu Neng, right? However, I also happen to know the name of the person who presided over the construction of this place, but it is a man named Wu Gang.
Guy."
This old ghost Wu Neng sneered:
"The most indispensable thing in this world is a half-informed fool like you."
"My hometown was hit by a severe drought and my mother starved to death. In order to save a mouthful of food for my brother and grandfather, I had no choice but to flee with my fellow villagers."
"When I was about to starve to death, I was accepted by the master of Tao Te Sect, but because I didn't have enough spiritual foundation, I could only become an outer disciple. Later, fortunately, my teacher did not dislike me and accepted me as his disciple. I was treated equally, but I couldn't get it.
It’s a Dao number.”
"My mentor's Taoist name is Hong Nengzi. In order to avoid the taboo of my mentor, I changed my name to Wu Gang. It is also to warn me that from now on I must be strong-minded and move forward in my actions without retreating!"
Fang Linyan looked on coldly and suddenly said:
"Your ability to tell stories is pretty good. If that's the case, then why is Wu Neng's name written on your tablet?"
The old ghost sighed, and after a long time he said leisurely:
"Among the fellow villagers who escaped from famine with me back then, by chance, some of them joined the Daode Sect together. My junior sister and I come from the same place, and we have known each other since childhood, so our feelings are naturally different."
"However, it was she who personally brought the pot of poisonous wine for me to drink. If she hadn't come, how could I have died willingly?"
"After my death, she rejected her marriage to her senior brother and built a Taoist temple here. She stayed unmarried for the rest of her life to keep watch over my body. She and I are from the same hometown and grew up together, so of course she knows my real name."
"The deceased is the greatest, and my master treated me so harshly, so of course I have to restore my real name on my spirit tablet to be worthy of my parents and ancestors."
After hearing his story, Fang Linyan felt a little sad for some reason. He didn't even ask why the Tao Te Sect poisoned Wu Neng. Is there any need to explain the reason?
This guy presided over the construction of an important place like Huitianfang, so he obviously knows too much. Moreover, he is also an orphan who fled and is an outer disciple with no background. How can he keep this secret without killing you?
Not only that, in order to prevent the ghost from leaking the secret, his soul must be locked in the core area of Tao Te Sect!
That senior sister said it was because he would never marry, but actually she played the role of a guard and jailer, which sounds a bit ugly... But Wu Neng, a dog-licking + technical geek, probably has never touched a woman in his life, so of course he doesn't understand.
Such a routine.
Of course, Fang Linyan knew very well the principle of telling the truth without telling the truth. The fate of this old ghost was already miserable enough. If the only hope in his heart was wiped out, he might turn into a crazy ghost and do nothing to himself.
There are no benefits.
Therefore, Fang Linyan Yangzuo lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said:
"This is really a mixture of grudges and grudges. I understand. No wonder you have deep resentment towards the Taoist Sect, but what about your junior sister? How did your Taoist temple become like this?"
Wu Neng said secretly:
"Xiaohua passed away two years ago. After she left, my Taoist temple was neglected and abandoned."
"I showed up in anger and dealt with the Taoist boys who were disrespectful to me. Then, the bastard Dong Yezi set up a spiritual locking formation, activating the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and trapped me here.
....”
"Until today, I suddenly discovered that the Soul Locking Array was ineffective. At first, I thought it was a malfunction, but later I realized that it was Dong Yezi, the bastard, who died!"
After hearing Wu Neng's words, Fang Linyan couldn't help but look up at the two big characters "morality" on the mountain wall next to him, and then said:
