Way of Mysterious World - Chapter 654
At noon three days later, Liu Yu took off with Meng Shengming’s imperial sword, got out of Gaoyang City, flew towards the due north, and took office at the Heavenly Master Wei of “Youying ghost forest”.
“I don’t know where elder martial brother used to work!” half a day later, the sky was getting dark. The red sun fell on the clouds in the distance and dyed large clouds red. Meng Shengming’s Royal sword led the way. His eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. He thought about it for a while. When Liu Yu’s Royal sword came to one side, he asked in a chatty tone.
“It’s about the secret of the sect. I’m sorry to say that it’s actually garrisoning a secret mine. It’s very boring on weekdays!” I don’t know why Meng Shengming suddenly asked about this. Whether he wanted to test or chat, Liu Yu had to find an excuse to prevaricate.
“It’s my little brother who talks too much. Don’t blame senior brother!” Meng Shengming said sorry when he couldn’t ask anything.
“No defense!” Liu Yu replied with a smile.
“By the way! Younger martial brother, do you know the situation of the ghost forest?” Meng Shengming led the way. It can be seen that he should know well about the ghost forest. Liu Yu immediately asked.
“Elder martial brother, do you know why there is a faint Yin in Gaocang country?” Meng Shengming didn’t answer directly, but asked with a smile.
“Why?” why? Liu Yu really didn’t know. When he served as a secular Heavenly Master in yannancheng, he had this question in his heart.
“Elder martial brother, do you notice that the air is getting more and more cloudy all the way?” Meng Shengming then asked.
“That’s true! Isn’t it…” reminded by Meng Shengming, Liu Yu couldn’t help frowning, and he felt something wrong along the way.
Not to mention the increasing concentration of Yin Qi around, there are fewer and fewer people in the place where the imperial sword flies. At the moment, there is no village in the tens of miles around the foot.
“That’s right! It’s because of the” Youying ghost forest “. The Youying ghost forest is located at the junction of Gaocang, Yupei and Pingyu, which is a large area of Yin Feng ancient forest“
”There is a long high-quality Yin vein under the forest. The source of Yin in the air in the three countries is here, “Meng Shengming explained.
“I see. I don’t know how long it will take!” this reminds Liu Yu of the “black haze poison forest” in the black-and-white mountains. This place is similar to it, but in zongmen, why have you never heard of it? When he was stationed in yannancheng, no one told him.
“Soon, there’s still half an hour at most!” Meng Shengming often comes back to the Tianshi guard station, transports food supplies for the guard station every month, and sometimes escorts the Yin stone mine mined by zongmen disciples back to Gaoyang city. It can be said that he is familiar with the road.
…
Half an hour later, the sky came into the curtain. They climbed over a high mountain with mountains and mountains. They saw a little fire on a flat open space at the foot of the forest.
Flying close, I saw that it was a simple camp surrounded by more than 30 stone houses and earth houses. Bonfires were rising on the wide playground in the middle of the camp.
“Coming!” when Liu Yu and Meng Shengming flew over the camp fortress, Taoist Tai Xiong, the leader of the guard station, and another deacon, Taoist Xu, with several guard station disciples, were waiting on the playground.
“Jun Mountain has seen martial uncle Tai Xiong, senior brother Xu!” after they landed, Meng Shengming came forward to greet them.
“Disciple Xuan Ting pays homage to elder Tai Xiong, senior brother ShangXu!” Liu Yu followed.
“Is this younger martial brother?” Taoist ShangXu asked Meng Shengming.
“Oh! Senior brother xuanting came to work at the order of the Pope.” Meng Shengming immediately introduced him.
“It turned out that younger martial brother xuanting came to replace elder martial brother Lvyi. Welcome! After elder martial brother Lvyi left office, I have been busy for six months. The sect has sent younger martial brother.” Taoist ShangXu complained.
“The disciple was ordered to come and wait for the elder’s dispatch!” Liu Yu worshipped again.
“Hmm! The sect has been ordered. I have received it earlier. Martial nephew, come to the house with me and sit down and talk!” Taoist Tai Xiong, the leader of the guard, is a strong man with a face full of flesh. His right arm is wrapped in a thick iron arm armor, and his huge metal right fist is cold.
“ShangXu, you take Junshan to rest first. I have something to talk to martial nephew xuanting!” Taoist Tai Xiong said, and took Liu Yu to his training camp. Obviously, he had something to say to the new Liu Yu.
“I know, martial uncle, Junshan went to the house with brother Wei to play two games. Last time he took a wrong step and was accidentally won by you. Brother Wei won’t let you this time.” Taoist ShangXu is a middle-aged Taoist who has worked in Tianshi Wei for many years. He is a good friend of Junshan who comes often.
“Just sit down!” Liu Yu followed Taoist Tai Xiong to a spacious stone house in yingsai. With the sound of “touch”, Taoist Tai Xiong unloaded the thick heavy arm armor of his right arm and threw it on the ground beside the bed.
It turned out that Taoist Tai Xiong’s right arm had been broken, and the thick heavy arm armor was a cold iron prosthesis.
“Martial uncle Tai Xiong, long time no see!” Liu Yu took off the cold iron mask and bowed respectfully.
It turned out that Taoist Tai Xiong was Tuo Bayan. His right arm was at the bottom of banpingshan mine and had been cut off by Huyan stone. The thick heavy arm armour is a special artifact customized by the trustee to replace the whole lost right arm.
“Martial nephew Xuanyu is well in the north. How can he offend the nazne family?” tuobayan sat down. He just got the news from the sect door. Xuanyu will come to the guard house to take refuge in anonymity. Why, he is not very sober and only knows about it.
“Hey!…” Liu Yu told the story about Nu Dong’s murder and his involvement in offending the zNe family.
“Hum! These northern barbarians are just fooling around and have poor strength. They were killed by the Banshee saint. Martial nephew Guan, stay here. I’m sure those northern barbarians can’t find them.” Tuo Bayan didn’t get angry after hearing this.
“Martial uncle, why did the sect set up a garrison here? What are the duties of the disciples when they were ordered to come here?” Liu Yu asked curiously. I just saw that the garrison was not large, but it was not small. Martial uncle Tai Xiong, a monk in the later stage of foundation building, was sent here for a reason.
“There are high-quality Yin veins under the shadow ghost forest. The Yin Qi is very heavy. Many monsters and ghosts breed in the forest. They are afraid that these dirty things will rush out of the ghost forest and harm the surrounding people. The sect specially went to the guard house here to protect one side. Moreover, the sect is also afraid of evil cultivation. This place has strong Yin Qi and hides practice.”
“In addition, in the center of the ghost forest, there is a natural mine cave underground. The sect will arrange disciples to enter the mine cave to mine Yin stone veins. Just now, senior brother ShangXu, who is the deacon of the mine team, is responsible for guarding the mining disciples and mining Yin stones in the mine cave.”
“Your duty, martial nephew, is to lead four ghost forest guards to patrol around the ghost forest, defend and annihilate all levels of demons, ghosts, zombies, bone demons and other dirty things that rush out of the ghost forest, so as to avoid harming the surrounding people.” tuobayan said slowly.
“I see, I understand!” after Tuo Bayan said, Liu Yu probably knew his duties in the future.
“I don’t know how big the shadow ghost forest is? How many people are there in the guard team? What if the range is too large and there are insufficient staff, so that ghosts escape? Will the sect punish?” Liu Yu thought for a moment and then asked again.
“The shadow ghost forest is at the junction of the Three Kingdoms. This sect only needs to patrol one side of Gaocang country. There are fewer people, but it’s enough to guard some key areas. Even if there are some fish that slip through the net and slip out of the ghost forest, each city and county of Gaocang country has a post of Heavenly Master. They will deal with it without worry.”
Tuoba Yan shrugged and didn’t take this too seriously. Outside the shadow ghost forest, the concentration of Yin Qi decreased gradually. The farther away, the thinner. Even if too many ghosts escape, they will take the initiative to slip back to the ghost forest. The shadow ghost forest has heavy Yin Qi, which is conducive to their own cultivation.
“Zongmen set up a guard station here, far more than just to guard against these dirty things. Forget it, when the time comes, I’ll tell you the truth, and you will understand it later.” tuobayan wanted to elaborate, but thought about it and didn’t go on.
“By the way! Martial uncle, this is the disciple’s duty scroll!” Liu Yu took out the red task scroll issued by the sect and handed it to his boss tuobayan.
“Yo! It seems that martial nephew is very valued among the xuanzi generation!” Tuoba Yan opened the task scroll and saw that it said two green guest pills a year.
You should know that another deacon of the Wei Institute, the virtual Taoist, is the same as Liu Yu. He is the cultivation of the six houses, but he only rewards one Qingke pill every year.
This is because the area of Youying ghost forest is special. The five elements aura is very weak. They often stay in places with such heavy Yin Qi. Not to mention the cultivation of Qi, they have to consume their own mana every day to resist the invasion of Yin Qi, which is very unfavorable to their own cultivation.
As compensation, the sect rewarded the garrison disciples with rich spirit stones and contribution points, the Deacon who reached the middle stage of foundation building, and even made an exception to reward Qingke pills, but they are usually one every year, and two every year like Liu Yu is very rare.
This is because Liu Yu has been stationed in the north for a hundred years. He has worked very hard. On his return, he has been stationed in dangerous places such as Youying ghost forest. The zongmen has appropriately improved his treatment.
But even so, zongmen can reward more spirit stones and contribution points.
The most important thing is that someone in the sect speaks for Liu Yu. This person is the Shizu immortal Xuanmu. Immortal Xuanmu himself asks for it. The sect has said something, so it has the treatment of two pills a year.
As the leader of Tianshi Wei, tuobayan only has four Qingke pills every year. It can be seen how difficult it is to have two every year.
Tuobayan’s right arm was cut off and his body was poisoned by poison gas. Many meridians withered and fractured. The family spent a lot of money to find the best healing pill and tried to repair it, but it still failed to cure. He only continued to connect some meridians to stabilize his injury.
Relying on the power of elixir and hard cultivation for more than 100 years, Tuoba Yanxiu refined to the eight mansion. In the later stage of foundation building, the fake elixir was barely condensed, but it was hopeless.
Thirty years ago, Tuoba took over the post of leader of the health center. All the green guest pills he obtained over the years were handed over to his cousin Tuoba Shu to help him advance and attack the golden elixir realm.
However, ten years ago, after Tuoba’s art failed to rob Ning Dan and his soul died under the thunder of Wuyang, the zongmen rewarded Tuoba Yan’s Qingke Dan, which was handed over to the Tuoba family’s zongku every year to add bricks and tiles to the family to help future generations.
…
In another stone house in yingsai, Meng Shengming is sitting opposite ShangXu Taoist Pu Le across the table. There is a chessboard on the table. On the surface, they are playing chess with a look of painstaking thinking, but in fact, they are talking through divine consciousness.
“Younger martial brother Meng, do you know the background of xuanting?”
“My younger brother tried several times, but he was very alert and vague. He couldn’t get anything out.”
“Younger martial brother Meng, do you think this person is normally ordered to take office, or does the sect doubt and send this person to check?”
“It’s hard to say. Although we’ve been very secretive all the time, I’m afraid if the zongmen hears any news and comes here to investigate secretly, it’ll be troublesome!”
“No, if zongmen has doubts, it’s just to let Tuoba extend the investigation. Why bother?”
“That said, this man has been wearing a mask and doesn’t show his true face. There must be something strange. In recent years, we’d better stop and find out his origin first.”
“Maybe it’s younger martial brother Meng. You think too much. This son may only have his face destroyed. He has been wearing a mask all the time, but we really don’t move recently. Let’s wait for brother Wei to observe first.”
