Yin Jiuyin reached out and stirred the blood, and the blood turned into a bloody boat.
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but said: "What should I do with my horse?"
"It's okay." Yin Jiuyin waved his sleeves, and the white mist came in and turned into a canopy, blocking out the Yin Qi.
Qi Xuansu patted the inferior horse and asked it to wait in the reed canopy. Then he followed Yin Jiuyin onto the boat made of blood. Yin Jiuyin waved his sleeves again, and the boat automatically moved without wind, towards the corpse island in the center of the blood lake.
Drive away.
The closer I get to Corpse Island and Emperor Willow, the more shocking I feel.
From a distance, Qi Xuansu could still roughly see the entirety of Emperor Willow, but when he arrived at the edge of Corpse Island, he could only see the huge trunk of Emperor Willow and the hanging strips of paper, all of which were emitting a faint fluorescent light, not eerie at all.
, on the contrary, it feels a bit ethereal and mysterious.
As for Corpse Island itself, there's not much to say.
As Yin Jiuyin said, the yin and yang inside the cave in the Ghost Kingdom are reversed, and the yin energy is too heavy. Even firearms cannot be used normally. The corpses inside have not decayed for thousands of years. It is no longer possible to clean these corpses through normal means.
, can only use some creations that are not within common sense.
It is not difficult to build a cesspool, but it is difficult to clean one.
More than two hundred years have passed, and the Taoist sect is still cleaning up the mess of the Zaoge Sect.
After the boat docked, Qi Xuansu set foot on Corpse Island. He felt sticky and soft under his feet, as if he were stepping on some kind of mud. When he arrived here, even the trunk of the emperor's willow could not be seen in full view. It was as if he was standing with his face against the wall.
.
Yin Jiuyin walked directly towards the roots of the Emperor Willow tree.
The tree roots are huge, like a dead python and dragon.
After getting closer, Qi Xuansu discovered that there was a tree hole. To be fair, the tree hole was very big, but compared with the huge body of Emperor Liu, it seemed very small, like an insignificant ant's nest.
Qi Xuansu followed Yin Jiuyin into it and found that there was a wooden staircase in the tree hole, which spiraled upward.
Yin Jiuyin said: "Because Diliu restrains the Yin energy and has the formation set up by the Taoist sect, we can't fly up directly, so we should walk up step by step."
Qi Xuansu couldn't fly either, so he naturally had no objection.
The stairs have no end at a glance and are not regular. They are built according to the veins of the Emperor Liu. Some of the stairs are inside the Emperor Liu and some are outside the Emperor Liu. It is like the structure of the Shu Road. It is naturally quite long to walk on it.
Stimulate.
In addition, there are some small tree houses for people to stay and rest. Many "straw men" live in them, wearing rattan armor and holding various weapons and bows and arrows. They are like loyal guards, and some are as big as tigers and leopards.
giant flying insects, flying in circles.
These should also be the creations of the guarding Emperor Liu. If Qi Xuansu came by himself, he would probably be killed by these grass-men and flying insects on the spot. However, with Yin Jiuyin leading the way, it would be different. The grass-men and flying insects would be completely different from the two of them.
Turn a blind eye.
At first, when Qi Xuansu came to the external stairs, he could still see the Corpse Island and the Blood Lake below. Qi Xuansu could even see that there were actually many roof eaves in the Blood Lake, indicating that there were originally buildings here, maybe just like the real ones.
It was like an imperial city, but it later sank into the blood lake for unknown reasons, leaving only a few high-rise buildings exposed.
Later, as I walked higher and higher, looking down, I could only see the white mist, and I could vaguely see the palace in front of the palace in the distance, looming in the white mist.
In the end, only the vast white mist was left, and even the Emperor Willow itself was looming.
When he reached the end of the stairs, Qi Xuansu discovered that there was a huge wooden platform above the tree canopy, which was as big as the Taisheng Temple. There was an altar-like place in the center of the platform, and in front of the altar stood an altar.
A huge jet-black strange bird, three feet tall, with black feathers like knives, spread wings ten feet long, a beak like a hook, and eyes full of fierceness.
However, after seeing Yin Jiuyin, the strange bird immediately folded its spread wings and became docile.
Yin Jiuyin led Qi Xuansu to the altar and saw many boxes and a flat crown on it.
The so-called flat crown, that is, the emperor's crown, has a bead curtain hanging down, which is called "Qi". There are twelve Qi in total.
This is probably "that thing" that Yin Jiuyin mentioned.
Yin Jiuyin looked at the Pingtian Crown and said slowly: "The owner of the ghost kingdom back then called himself the 'Emperor of the Netherworld'. He built an above-ground ghost kingdom, formed a ghost army, and even built a replica of the imperial capital. This Pingtian Crown is his
It can be said that the relics bring together the fortune of the Zaoge Sect back then."
Qi Luck is divided into two parts, one part is generated by the veins of mountains, rivers and dragons, and the other part is generated by the human heart. When the two are combined into one, it is Qi Luck.
The veins of mountains, rivers and dragons are called the Qi of the Earth, and the aspirations of the human heart are called the power of incense and desire.
At the end of every dynasty, people lose their hearts, cities and lands are lost, and their luck is naturally at an end.
In a sense, luck is a very special kind of divine power, which takes into account the strengths of both earthly immortals and gods. It is much higher than the various divine powers of the ancient immortals, and can even compete with the mighty power of heaven.
Yin Jiuyin continued: "With the demise of the Zaoge Sect, the luck condensed in the Pingtian Crown has also been lost. It is just because the ghost kingdom on the earth still exists, so it has not completely perished. And because the Pingtian Crown cannot leave the ghosts.
Guodongtian, so the Taoist sect did not take it away. In other words, for the Taoist sect that controls half of the incense and Kunlun dragon veins in the world, these fortunes are really nothing, so they were left to us. This is what Mrs. Bai said
One of the few wealthy families.”
Qi Xuansu already had a premonition in his heart and didn't know what to say for a while.
Yin Jiuyin stepped forward and held the Pingtian Crown with both hands: "Master Wan was originally responsible for keeping this Pingtian Crown. Maybe Master Wan thought it was too troublesome. After all, according to the Taoist sect, Master Wan is closer to a martial artist. For
I'm not very interested in this kind of thing. Moreover, Master Wan was indeed a little careless, so he gave it to Mrs. Bai for safekeeping. I didn't expect that Mrs. Bai would hide it here."
Qi Xuansu could also see that Master Wan, who looked like a giant, did not look like a character who could draw talismans and recite incantations. Even if he didn't swing his arms and fists, it would be too big for him. As for Yin Jiuyin, judging from the methods he just showed,
He should be an alchemist who is good at turning reality into reality and making false appear true.
Yin Jiuyin handed the Pingtian crown in his hand to Qi Xuansu: "I think this thing will be useful to the little friends."
Qi Xuansu did not dare to reach out to take it directly, but looked at Yin Jiuyin and asked: "Since it is one of the few in the family, why did Mr. Yin give it to me?"
"That's a good question." Yin Jiuyin said with a smile, "I still say the same thing, if you are not a hundred years old in life, you will always worry about a thousand years old. We are more than a hundred years old, and there are indeed no difficulties in front of us, but we have to look back and think about it.
A hundred years later."
Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered that Master Wan once said that there are enough corpses here for a hundred years. Thinking further, someone in the Taoist sect once advocated destroying the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven. If one day the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven ceases to exist, then Master Wan, Yin
Sir, Mrs. Bai will inevitably have to find a way out for herself, and cannot place all her hopes on the arrangements of Daomen.
This is probably the reason why Mrs. Bai only asked what to do and how to do it but did not object.
Yin Jiuyin just gave an ambiguous reply, giving it first and then knowing what to do.
In other words, Yin Jiuyin didn't know where he was going, but it seemed like he was taking a gamble on his last resort. After all, a hundred years was too far away and no one could predict it.
Qi Xuansu smiled bitterly and said, "Does Mr. Yin think so highly of me?"
Yin Jiuyin smiled: "To put it bluntly, I am just ordinary. But this piece of 'Xuan Jade' is extraordinary. If I got it accidentally, it means that I am
Those who are destined to have great opportunities will have a bright future. If it is a gift from an elder, it means that there are many things behind the little friend, and he may not be able to do something in the future. No matter what it is, it is enough for the three of us.
The lonely ghosts took a gamble, and if it works out, it would be the best. If it doesn't work out, it doesn't matter, after all, it's just a flat crown that is destined to perish."
When it comes to this, it can be said to be extremely sincere.
Qi Xuansu was silent for a moment and said, "I wonder what Mr. Yin wants me to do?"
"It's just a favor." Yin Jiuyin still gave an ambiguous answer, "When necessary, please help us if you can, that's all."
