Taoist chanting

Chapter 264 Please God Appear

The rustling movement blown by the cold wind woke up the monks who were meditating in several wooden sheds tens of feet away.

Shi Huai'an flew down in front of the extinguished bonfire and scanned the area carefully. He found two swords lying on the ground. The hare roasting on the bonfire was covered with thin yellow sand and smelled of hot meat. Alone disappeared, and shouted:

"Be alert! The law enforcement guard on duty is missing!"

The monks on duty at night will not go far at will. He heard the two people shouting and asking.

When he heard the strange wind and sand, he came out to check again, and the bonfire extinguisher had disappeared.

At such a fast speed, they took away two monks in the Qi Transformation Realm under their noses. This was the first time someone had an accident at the foot of the mountain since this place was haunted by ghosts.

Jin Huanran followed and landed near the Patrol Envoy. As a helping hand sent by the county, he searched for several days and invited several groups of people to do it, but no one could tell why. Some people said that it was mountain spirits and monsters who made troubles, but they couldn't produce any real evidence.

This Baihu Ridge with a radius of seven or eight miles can't be visited except for a few places on the side of the valley and halfway up the mountain.

Everything else is normal, and nothing strange happened before August this year.

Jin Huanran said in a low voice: "It's not suitable to go into the mountains at night, why don't you ask Director Guo to send more inspectors tomorrow, or ask the city to send experts to reinforce? We have tried all the methods we can think of, and we also ask Xiahe County Daolu The director of the branch, Lu, used the official treasures of the community to investigate the water transportation at the root of the mountain, and used the word "mountain" to suppress evil spirits, and covered the entire Baihuling. He didn't notice anything strange. This place is so weird, and it is unknown. Can the Law Enforcement Guard show up alive?"

Shi Huaian had a haggard look on his face. He was trapped in the valley for two days a few days ago.

People outside could see him walking around the chaotic rocks in the canyon, but he couldn't get out, which made him make a fool of himself.

Seeing that the patrol envoy was thinking, Jin Huanran said in a low voice: "Master Guo replied, saying that Master Feng took his transfer order yesterday to ask Guanzhu Zhang to come to help, but Guanzhu Zhang refused on the pretext of being injured."

Shi Huai'an shook his head slightly. He heard that before Feng Chengyun of Nine Crane Palace took over as the director of Daolu Branch of Xiling County, Zhang Wenfeng, Chen Qingqiao and the two monks of Xianlingguan resigned all their vacancies and real positions.

Last year, that idiot in Nine Crane Palace bought Jie Zhiquan for foreign affairs, and Wu Xiu took advantage of the stupid thing he did. In the battle of Xihezhou Town, both the Daolu branch and the common people suffered heavy casualties.

He participated in the finale and personally escorted Xie Zhiquan, who had abolished his cultivation base, to the prefectural city for legal action.

Zhang Wenfeng and Chen Qingqiao, the group of meritorious monks who killed witch cultivators, were somewhat concerned about Nine Crane Palace. So far, Nine Crane Palace has not expressed any remorse for that accident. It is also a silent protest.

Shi Huai'an has dealt with the elegant and polite Zhang Guanzhu twice, and his impression is not bad.

He expressed his understanding of Zhang Guanzhu's approach, but he did not agree with it.

The young man is still too impulsive, offending even the head of the county city, and he didn't think carefully.

"Stop! Someone come and report your name!"

The law enforcement guards on guard at the foot of the mountain saw someone coming from the east and hurriedly shouted to stop.

It was a man and a woman who came. Under the light of the torch, the man in the blue Taoist robe showed a dark gold plaque and said, "Nanjiang Prefecture Daolu Branch, Ke Qing Supervisor Zhang Wenfeng, has been ordered to come and assist in the investigation!"

Shi Huaian and Jin Huanran stared blankly at each other for a moment, then reacted and hurriedly flew over.

"Thank you Zhang Guanzhu for coming to help at night, I have met Zhang Guanzhu!"

"I've met Fellow Daoist Shi and Fellow Daoist Jin, both of you are very polite."

Zhang Wenfeng didn't introduce the woman in the black skirt beside him, and asked after a brief greeting, "What happened just now?"

He could see it through the scattered positions of law enforcement guards and the tense atmosphere.

Shi Huai'an sighed, stretched out his hand and invited the two of them to the extinguished bonfire at the foot of the mountain, and told them about the strange things that happened just now, without asking about the origin of the woman with hairpins, Zhang Wenfeng hung the token around his waist, he could not fake it at all.

Although Keqing Supervisor is an idle job, he will not underestimate it at all.

The entire Daolu branch in Zhoucheng plus Zhang Wenfeng, there are only three Keqing supervisors, and a year later, they are almost certain official supervisors.

After Zhang Wenfeng listened, he squatted down and looked at the campfire with his head tilted. He reached out and took two hares that had been roasted and soiled, and handed them to a Xiahe county law enforcement guard holding a torch to illuminate them.

When going out to perform tasks, an identity token should be hung on the waist so that it can be seen at a glance.

I used a branch to push the bonfire aside, pushing away the embers and ash, revealing a large charred tree stump below.

Hugging thick tree stumps, about a foot above the ground, is really a good place to set up a bonfire and make a stove.

Throwing down the branch in his hand, Zhang Wenfeng looked at the woman in the black dress looking up at the dark height.

He knew that Mo Ye would not help investigate the case, but with Mo Ye following him, he could rest assured that he would not be afraid of any thousand-year-old monsters. Can't die."

With this sentence, it is more effective than any amulet in the world.

This is the confidence given to him by the master.

"Mountain god?"

Faced with Zhang Guanzhu's enigma-like question, the corners of Mo Ye's mouth twitched upwards.

She turned around with a half-smile and continued to look at the dark mountains.

I said that if I don’t help, I won’t help, and I can only rely on Zhang Wenfeng to figure out a way, otherwise, if she makes a move, all the mountain spirits and ghosts will show their original shapes when they step down. What’s the matter with Zhang Wenfeng?

She is just an idler who follows the excitement, walks around and looks around, that's all.

Zhang Wenfeng and Zhong Wenyong have been together for so long, and they know something about Shinto incense and incense.

Moreover, Zhong Wenyong was worried that he would suffer, so he specially taught him the taboo rules when dealing with Shinto.

Combining the trend of the surrounding mountains and forests, he has already seen that this inconspicuous tree stump, which is used as a bonfire stand, is a seat for the mountain god to rest, also known as the "top chair".

Two law-enforcing guards of Huaqi Realm who don't understand the divine way burned the tree stumps and offended the hidden "mountain god" here, so there is a reason for them being taken away, which makes sense.

The Da'an Dynasty was a Taoist world. Five hundred years ago, the witch cultivators were expelled, and the temples were cut down. The incense belonged to the Taoist patriarchs and sages, but the spiritual energy surged. The mountain god lurked and hid?

Zhong Wenyong back then was a living example.

Shi Huai'an asked strangely: "Guanzhu Zhang, do you mean that there is a hidden former mountain god here?"

He had read some classics of Wuxiu in the previous dynasty, and he had seen the records about "Mountain God's Top Chair", and he also squatted down to carefully look at the burnt rotten tree stumps beyond recognition.

Jin Huanran also squatted down, feeling excited, Guanzhu Zhang is extraordinary, and he made a different discovery when he arrived here, if he captured a remnant of the former mountain god, it would be a great contribution, far more valuable than killing a group of haunting ghosts or monsters.

Zhang Wenfeng nodded slightly, and said, "It's very similar to the 'Mountain God Top Chair'. When I cast a spell and ask the god to show up, you all step back first. If there is a mountain god hiding, you can try it."

Shi Huai'an hurriedly ordered several law enforcement guards to put the torches nearby, and backed away.

He has heard about Zhang Guanzhu's fighting ability. He cut off the left arm of the monster monster who swallowed gold, and defeated Feng Chengfeng, who is also a martial arts practitioner in Nine Crane Palace, with a single sword. , very loud.

It is estimated that Zhang Guanzhu's ability to obtain the position of Keqing Supervisor is related to his record and reputation?
It made sense not to agree to the dispatch of the head of the county city, Guo, and it made sense. The head of Guo couldn't move Guanzhu Zhang at all.

Zhang Wenfeng took out three incense sticks and a pair of white candles from the black cloth bag.

Light a white candle and place it in front of the charred tree stump, light an incense stick, hold the incense and face the silent mountains in the dark night, and murmur a prayer: "Three mountains and five mountains, the god of all mountains. The spirits of plants, trees and beasts are under your command. I am here now." , Quickly show your prestige... The mountain god, the mountain god, quickly show his real body. I obey the law of the Patriarch of Wanfa, order!"

The last sentence was intentionally pronounced lightly and vaguely, something that Zhong Wenyong taught was somewhat taboo.

However, after a while, the incense mist curled away, and the mountain god he guessed did not show up, not even a sign of abnormal sound.

This is unreasonable, he used Shinto means, even if the mountain god dared not show up, he would greet him in a unique way.

In other words, there is no mountain god hiding here, is he wrong?
