Goldfinger of the Heavens

Chapter 730 Strange Town (seeking order)
"Speaking of Dongying people, Pindao also discovered an abnormal place three months ago, which seems to be related to those Dongying people, but after some investigation, I still didn't find much. Just let it go." Daoist Qianhe said:
"It's just that when I mentioned this matter just now, for some reason, I remembered it again, and I felt a little uneasy in my heart."

"There is another matter?" said the four-eyed Taoist priest, "why don't you talk about it in detail, junior brother?"

"Yeah." Daoist Qianhe nodded and said, "This matter started four months ago. At the beginning, I took an order to drive corpses. On the way, because of heavy rain, I had to stop in an abandoned town. Take shelter from the rain."

"That night there was lightning and thunder, but I found that there seemed to be the sound of ghosts howling in the town, so I went around and searched carefully. After some investigation, I found that the terrain in the north of the town is quite special. , like the shape of a pigeon whistle, when the strong wind blows, it will naturally howl again and again."

"Although this matter is strange, it is clearly recorded in my Maoshan classics that in some places, due to the terrain, such strange sounds will indeed be produced under certain conditions." Uncle Jiu nodded and said.

"That's right. At the beginning, I also thought that I must have encountered such a strange terrain, and I didn't take it seriously. Besides, there were lightning flashes and thunder at that time. Even if there were ghosts, how dare they haunt them? And I have seen it with my magic eye before. There is no problem." Daoist Qianhe said.

"Hmm." Everyone nodded. Daoist Qianhe has traveled extensively and experienced a lot, so everyone still believes in his judgment. Although he hasn't talked about Dongying people yet, everyone is not in a hurry and is waiting for him to continue talking.

"This matter has come to an end, but half a month later, I came to this deserted town again because I was hunting down an evil spirit." Daoist Qianhe paused and said:

"But I found a very strange thing, that is, all the buildings in this town seem to have been moved by someone and rotated 180 degrees." Daoist Qianhe said.

"What?" Everyone was surprised when they heard this.

This is not a trivial matter. Even Huang Chong, who is proficient in earth magic, dare not say that he can do this. Even if he can do it, he will not try it lightly, because it is to move the leylines of an area , if you don't do it, you will be discouraged, and you will be contaminated with great cause and effect.

This is a big taboo.

"Could it be an illusion?" Uncle Jiu asked.

"Yes, it's the illusion performed by that evil ghost." Daoist Qianhe nodded.

It was not surprising that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's just that the evil ghost, although it has some abilities, at most it can change a small area, but it is impossible to cover the entire town."

"This……"

"Later I discovered a formation altar, and that evil ghost used this formation altar to enhance the effect of illusion, covering the entire town." Daoist Qianhe said without inspiring everyone.

"What a powerful altar." Everyone exclaimed.

"Yes, the writings on this altar are all in Japanese characters, and depending on how old they are, they are only two or three years old." Daoist Qianhe said.

"What's so weird about this altar?" Uncle Jiu asked.

Priest Qianhe shook his head helplessly, and said: "No, I basically studied this altar from the beginning to the end, from the outside to the inside, but I didn't find anything. At that time, I thought it was the evil spirit It took up the remaining mana of the formation altar, which made the formation altar invalid, but now that I think about it, it seems that something is wrong."

"Brother, have you ever gone to find out about that town?" Huang Chong asked, "Why would the Dongying people set up an altar in an abandoned town? It's unreasonable."

"Afterwards, I actually thought it was a bit strange, and I did some research. Don't tell me, this town does have a story. During the Ming Dynasty, the area where this town is located was once invaded by Japanese pirates. A trap was set up in the local area, and more than 200 vicious Japanese pirates were killed, and then with the help of Buddhist masters, they were rescued by those Japanese pirates, their bodies were buried in the ground, and a town was built on the ground."

"Twenty years ago, because of the war, dozens of Dongying soldiers lost their way. When they arrived in that town, they were killed by the people in the town. Later, when China was defeated, the townspeople were worried about being punished, so they all moved away, and the town was empty. down."

Daoist Qianhe continued: "Fortunately, I met a few fellow Taoists here before, and they told me about this, so I guessed that it might be that the Dongying people built the altar in order to pay homage to the dead. .”

"I see." Everyone nodded.

"I have searched together with a few local Taoist friends, but I didn't find anything, so I didn't take this matter to heart anymore, but just now, when I was talking about Dongying Onmyoji, I thought of this matter, and in my heart There's a strong sense of unease."

"By the way, a very strange thing actually happened in that town, that is, more than 200 years ago, the town seemed to have been ransacked, and everyone died overnight, and it became deserted. They didn’t dare to settle down, and later a group of foreigners who migrated due to the war settled here.”

"This is a strange town." Huang Chong said: "Brother, if you don't give up, why don't you take me for a walk, how about taking a look at this weird town?"

People who practice Taoism and understand the way of heaven will never feel uneasy without reason. There must be some problems in it.

"It's so good." Daoist Qianhe said that there was nothing wrong with it.

Daoist Qianhe and others actually discovered very early on that they can no longer see clearly the cultivation of their little junior brother. At this moment, in the eyes of Daoist Qianhe, Daoist Simu and others, Huang Chong is like a bunch of mediocrity. It seems that the people in it can be seen clearly, but it seems that they can't see clearly.

The situation was similar to when I saw Uncle Jiu, but the fog was not as thick as Uncle Jiu.

They had to admit that their little brother Huang Chong's current cultivation was not far behind even if he hadn't reached Tao Quanzhen.

But thinking about Huang's achievements since worshiping his master, it seems that this is not unreasonable. His own junior has always been very good.

"Brother, you are serious. I was going to travel around. I have been a teacher for so long, but I still don't have a Taoist name." Huang Chong said with a smile.

Because Huang Chong went around everywhere, although he did a lot of things, but none of them were too big. In addition, he didn't deliberately publicize, so his reputation was not obvious, and he didn't get a Taoist name yet.
