Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 286: Dahe, true form
Aoshan City, near the back mountain.
It is an exquisite small courtyard that occupies a small area but is very beautifully decorated.
In the center of the yard, there is a small pool one and a half feet long and three to four feet wide.
Beside the pool, there are several small and exquisite rockeries surrounding it.
The remaining corners are planted with various flowers, plants and trees, and a small pavilion is half-hidden and half-revealed among the trees.
The winding paths paved with pebbles connect mountains, water, flowers, trees, pavilions, and several houses deep in the yard.
Lu Tong stepped on the rockery.
Looking at the pool stained black by cotton wool, the rockery and pavilion that collapsed after the fierce fight, and the pieces of broken flowers and trees.
"Where did the fog monster appear?"
No need for others to reply, he already knows the answer.
The mountain has long been filled with ghosts.
Now the ghosts are starting to come out and kill people.
Besides, Shaking Star said: "In the mountains. Some of the mines dug in the early years have probably been connected to the ghost caves. Now there are many fog ghosts and fog monsters hiding there."
Yue Shenyu came out of the house and said, "You are so unprepared for such an obvious flaw."
"So what if you are prepared?"
Shaking Star smiled bitterly and continued: "There are hundreds of abandoned mines, and it is impossible to guard against them."
Lu Tong shook his head and said slowly: "If you don't fight back and just defend, of course you will be caught."
Shaking Star sighed.
"I invited you two here just to fight back. We have agreed with Zu and Kong to summon monks from each family to go into the mountains to eliminate ghosts and monsters. Can you two work together?"
Yue Shenyu glanced at Lu Tong, nodded and said: "Okay."
Lu Tong remained silent.
This was a real cave in the past. The mountain guarding formation absorbed the golden energy from all directions and merged it into the trees to defend against foreign enemies.
Year after year, the tree roots in the mountain turned into mineral veins.
Each of those hollowed-out mines is full of twists and turns, and the terrain is very complex.
Going into the hole has few advantages and many disadvantages.
"I'm going to take people out of the city and transport another batch of food."
"It's a good job."
Outside the city, animal carts drove into the gray fog.
A group of martial arts monks holding knives and swords gathered around the beast cart, and everyone was wary.
Inside one of the carriages.
Lu Tong and Zu Wanyi, like last time, sat on both sides of the window.
But this time, his expression was relaxed, and his mandrill arms and tiger claws hung naturally beside him, without any gesture of taking action at any time.
On the window, a glass of red wine wafted out with a strong aroma.
He looked at the wine glass and said, "Is the time coming soon?"
"What?"
Zu Wanyi was staring at the gray mist, as if he was deep in thought or conveying a message.
Lu Tong asked again: "Is the last wave of siege coming soon?"
That year in Qianxue Mountain.
When the fog receded, countless fog monsters came in the last wave, almost submerging Qianxue Mountain. If he hadn't hid in a mountain crevice, he would probably have died.
Zu Wanyi did not answer, but asked: "Senior brother brought many people out?"
"Huh?"
He raised his eyelids and felt a little wary.
This time when we left the city, the carriage was not empty, but filled with many elderly people, women, and children.
Most of them are relatives and close friends of the martial arts school.
Zu Wanyi looked at the distance again and said: "There is a deal: ten lives in exchange for a fog ghost."
"No."
Lu Tong refused, slowly closed his eyes, opened them again the next moment and said: "Something went wrong, I will kill you first."
"If it doesn't work, it won't work. It's not the deal I proposed."
Zu Wanyi murmured in a low voice, picked up the wine glass on the window and drank it in one gulp.
Fangshi is still in the same position as last time.
The motorcade arrives.
A group of people walked out of the carriage and prepared to find a place to stay.
Du Zhixing was carrying a bunch of parcels, large and small, and said, "Chief Immortal, they don't dare to disturb us, please ask me to deliver them."
He turned around and looked.
Some people stood not far away, bowing and saluting.
Lu Tong nodded and took the package.
"Where are they going?"
"Most people are going to the nearby Huiyan City, while some of the remaining people want to stay here, and some don't know much about it."
"Very good."
He opened a package.
A three-inch-tall immortal jade sculpture, white and green, with very fine jade quality and a layer of oily sheen on the surface.
A very common jade ornament.
Lu Tong rubbed it a few times, accepted the jade carving, and then opened other packages.
Jade carvings, strange stones, ancient books, family spells
Some bits and pieces are worthless and useless, but the affection behind them is very precious.
He accepted them one by one and said, "Let's go, find a place to eat."
Zu Wanyi looked at Lu Tong's back, then glanced at the crowd in the distance, shook his head and quickly followed.
Compared with last time, the market has become more lively in just a few days.
Street stalls, teahouses, taverns, blacksmith shops, elixir shops, inns, restaurants
Passing a restaurant.
Lu Tong took two steps, suddenly stopped, and looked back at the door of the restaurant.
There is a wooden cart outside the door.
On the wooden board in front of the cart, there are two big characters written "She Porridge" and four small characters "Dahe Liangxing" next to it.
Zu Wanyi turned his eyes and asked: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay."
Fengzhonglou.
The two ordered a table of food and drinks.
Lu Tong picked up the tea cup.
Unconsciously, he thought of Dahe Grain Store again. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said: "I know a big grain merchant, which is very strange."
"Dahe Food Store?"
"Yes."
He was a little surprised. He didn't expect Zu Wanyi to be so alert. I just paid a little attention when passing by and actually remembered it.
"Why is it strange?"
Zu Wanyi was very curious and wanted to find out everything related to Lu Tong.
Lu Tong took a sip of tea and put down the cup.
"When there was fog that year, this person not only didn't take advantage of the opportunity to raise prices, but also gave out free porridge in the city."
"If you are not seeking profit, you can be seeking fame. If you are not seeking fame, you must have other intentions secretly."
He nodded and said: "This person has a very good reputation indeed."
Zu Wanyi snorted and whispered: "Most people possessed by **** ghosts have a good reputation."
Lu Tong remained silent.
Yu Su and Meng Dahe both ran grain stores. One is very greedy for money, the other is just the opposite.
They look completely different, but I always feel that they are somewhat similar.
"This person may have practiced evil."
"Desire ghost?"
His eyes widened and he said, "You think so too?"
Zu Wanyi held the tea cup and smelled it without picking it up. He held it in his hand and turned it around.
"Anywhere where there is fog, the most powerful and wealthy people in the city must have ghosts of desire among them or the people around them."
He couldn't help but look solemn.
There have been fogs in Yunying City, and more than once.
The next day.
After a night of shopping, the storage bags, storage magic weapons, and many carriages in the fleet were all filled.
Before departure.
Lu Tong found Du Zhixing and said, "Go and ask if those people had any contact with Dahe Grain Store yesterday."
"Okay."
When we first arrived in a strange place, everyone had not dispersed yet, they all stayed together.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
Du Zhixing returned quickly and said with a smile: "Dahe Grain Store gave out free porridge, and many people drank it. There are two lucky ones who were spotted by the Grain Store, so they don't have to worry about food and drink in the future."
His heart sank.
Here too.
How many people have the Mengda River taken away over the years?
"Go tell them, if you don't want to die, don't touch Dahe Food Store."
Du Zhixing was shocked.
"Xian Chang, the porridge is poisonous?"
Lu Tong was going to give a brief explanation, but before he spoke, he changed his mind and nodded: "It's okay to drink once, but if you drink too much, you will be poisoned and addicted."
Telling the truth is hard to convince.
And telling the truth is laborious and laborious, so it is better to spread a few rumors.
Du Zhixing was anxious and had no intention of asking anything else. He immediately jumped into the air and flew out quickly.
Inside Aoshan City.
Shaking Star looked very tired and handed over a storage bag.
"This is thirty thousand taels."
Lu Tong reached out and took it without putting it away, holding it in his palm and weighing it up and down.
Shaking Star quickly explained: "Most people have no money. A large part of this batch of food will be given away for free."
He nodded, put away the storage bag, and asked: "Have you entered the mountain?"
"I went there twice yesterday and today."
"How?"
Shaking Star sighed heavily and said: "There is a slight gain, but it is a pity that the gain outweighs the loss."
"What's wrong?"
"A young master of the Kong family died."
Lu Tong's pupils shrank, and a name instantly appeared in his mind.
The holes are also micro.
The direct young master of the Kong family and the husband of Zu Wanxi.
The words that the **** ghost was whispering in my ears came out again: "Seduce, Zu Wanxi. Kill, Kong Yewei. Bury, Zu Wanxi, steal the unicorn."
"Which young master?"
"The holes are also small."
He exhaled softly and murmured: "It's really unpredictable."
The two separated.
Lu Tong caught up with the carriage driven by Hua Dao, landed on the shaft, and got straight into the carriage.
"What did you do?"
Zu Wanyi was holding the account book, calculating how much money he could get this time, and asked doubtfully: "What's the matter?"
"Kong Yewei is dead."
Zu Wanyi raised his eyebrows, put away the account book, and said: "It's so fast."
"It's really you."
He sat down next to him.
Zu Wanyi shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with me. There is a ghost in the Kong family who has killed dozens of people, and Kong Yewei is just one of them."
"Not exposed yet?"
"No."
Lu Tong was secretly shocked.
Killing dozens of people and still escaping unharmed, the method is quite powerful.
He thought for a moment, then his heart suddenly moved, he looked at Zu Wanyi and asked: "Are you reminding me, who is the desire ghost?"
There are not many people in the Kong family who have the strength to kill dozens of people. As long as you look carefully, it shouldn't be difficult to find.
Zu Wanyi blinked his eyes and slowly curved his mouth.
"Brother, this is your own guess. If you kill the wrong person, don't blame me."
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Lu Tong slowly withdrew his eyes and said, "I'm trapped, and you can't escape."
"Brother, be careful."
A round table filled with wine and food.
Laotang Snow Shredded Thin Noodles, Steamed Fish with Danqi, and Tender Bamboo Shoots with Danji Sauce
Lu Tong sat at the table.
After taking a bite of fish, your mouth is immediately filled with the aroma of vegetation.
The food still tastes the same as before, but people have become alienated.
Yue Shenyu took a few bites, put down his chopsticks, took a sip of tea, and asked: "Junior brother, I didn't come here just for a meal, right?"
He smiled and said: "Of course not."
"What happened?"
Yue Shenyu was very afraid.
If you live with a **** ghost day and night, no matter how good a person is, he will turn bad, not to mention that this junior brother is inherently cruel and greedy.
Lu Tong picked up the thin noodles with chopsticks, finished it in one big bite, put down his chopsticks, and chewed for a while.
"There is a ghost of desire."
Yue Shenyu frowned and stared at Lu Tong's left hand.
"It's not it." He waved his left hand, "The other **** ghost is hiding in Kong Mansion and has killed dozens of people. It also killed Kong Yewei."
"How do you know."
Lu Tong raised his left hand again.
Yue Shenyu has been a member of the sect since he was a child. He is very aware of the treachery of Yugui and is very suspicious. He carefully asks: "What evidence is there?"
He picked up the tea cup, poured a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth, and swallowed it again.
"No evidence."
"Junior brother, be careful of falling into the trap of the **** ghost."
Yue Shenyu’s expression is ever-changing.
Some doubts whether the person sitting in front of him talking is Lu Tong himself or the **** ghost on his hand.
Lu Tong smiled and said: "Even if it's a trap, it's worth trying. If Senior Sister wants this great feat, I can let it go."
"No need."
Yue Shenyu shook his head and refused.
The more things you take from the ghost, the more you will have to pay. When enough numbers have been taken, it's time to pay for your life.
He was very surprised.
I thought that the Yueshen Control Club would be a great achievement, so I took this opportunity to exchange for some wind control skills.
Unexpectedly, I was not interested.
"Senior sister is unwilling to take action?"
"No. It concerns the Kong family. How about we ask Senior Brother Qianfeng first and then make a decision?"
"Okay."
A few days passed.
The foot of the right mountain.
Under a steep rock wall, there is a large hole with a diameter of two feet at the bottom. The entrance of the hole is surrounded by black and white stones to form a yin and yang fish pattern.
Inside the cave is the ancestral mausoleum of the Kong family.
Outside the cave, there is a spiritual shed.
Kong Yewei is about to be buried. People of all sizes in Aoshan City almost fill the open space in front of the cliff.
Lu Tong stood in the crowd, looking around from front to back, left and right.
Inside the funeral shed.
A woman in mourning robes was sitting on her knees.
Phoenix eyes and thick eyebrows.
A bit like Zu Wanyi, less masculine and more feminine.
The third eldest son of the ancestral family, Zu Wanxi.
At this time, his expression was full of sadness.
He took a serious look and was a little unsure whether Zu Wanxi had obtained the demon-transforming spell during the vigil. ~IndoMTL.com~ After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and looked to the left.
A strong male cultivator with broad shoulders and thick back.
Sword eyebrows, eagle eyes.
One of the leaders of the Kong family's guard, Ma Shengding.
"Boom!"
A fire phoenix flew out and got into the coffin, and there was a cry around it.
After a while, the coffin was lifted and sent into the cave.
A few female cultivators in mourning robes followed and walked into the cave, including Zu Wanxi.
Crying starts and falls just as quickly.
When a group of people entered the cave, the crying immediately stopped. The crowd chatted in twos and threes and prepared to eat together.
"Wait a minute, everyone!"
An old man with a white beard stood up and shouted loudly: "Qianfeng Immortal Master of Qi Qi Sect has something to say."
Qianfeng flew into the air.
Looked at each other and Lu Tong, shouted: "Ma Sheng Ding!"
Ma Shengding’s expression changed.
"Here!"
Qianfeng took a few breaths and said slowly:
"Ma Sheng Ding."
"On February 3rd, I led thirteen monks and five mountain apes out of the city. More than half of the monks under my command were killed or wounded, and none of the mountain apes survived."
"On February 9th, I led eight monks out of the city, and more than half of the monks under my command were killed or injured."
"On February 16, I took seventeen monks out of the city, but none of my monks survived."
"On March 2, I went out of the city with three comrades, and only one of the three survived."
"March 11"
"On April 9, I followed Kong Yewei into the mountains, and something unexpected happened to Kong Yewei."
"Do you have anything to say?"
Ma Shengding looked around, gritted his teeth and said, "I am the one who has caused trouble for the young master!"
"Still pretending to be stupid."
Qian Feng sneered and shouted: "Lu Tong!"
"Here!"
Lu Tong took a step forward, and a large area of space suddenly opened up around him.
"Try his true form."
"Yes!"
