When I arrived in Dali, I met the elders of Yang Xukuan's family. They explained the purpose of their visit and stayed for a dinner.
After that, we drove to the Mid-Levels Timeshare Resort Hotel near Xiaguan General Cave in Dali.
Let’s talk about Jiangjun Cave in Xiaguan, Dali.
Built in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it is the main temple of the Bai people, also known as the General Temple.
The temple faces west to east, with the gate facing south and north. The main hall has a single eaves on the top of the mountain, and the cloister is five bays wide. In front of the hall, there is a dragon playing in the water, and a phoenix flying on the pillars. An incense table is placed in front of the general's statue, and incense is burned in a bronze furnace. .
Opposite the main hall is the main hall, and next to the hall is the gatehouse. Behind the gatehouse is the stage, and in front of the stage is the square. There is also the Pavilion of the Descendants and Sunniangs in the south of the hall. In the north of the hall, there are two gods of wealth, civil and military, and a big green tree stands at the temple gate. forward.
The architectural layout of the General Temple is relatively complete, coupled with the quiet environment and extremely strong incense, it has become an important religious place in Dali and a famous tourist attraction.
The Yang family's mid-level vacation villa is built on Carlsberg Avenue in Xiaguan near Jiangjun Cave. It is composed of more than ten independent three-story buildings.
Yang Xukuan and Huang Ming lived in the middle building.
The time soon reached three o'clock in the morning.
Huang Ming had been sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, while Yang Xukuan and his cousins turned out the lights and hid behind the curtains to look out.
But nothing happened.
"What's going on? Didn't you say there will be hauntings at three o'clock in the night?"
Yang Xukuan was a little puzzled.
"It's weird. There used to be laughter between one and three o'clock, but why isn't there today?"
"Is that ghost gone?"
Yang Xukuan's cousins were also a little puzzled.
Just when everyone was a little strange.
"Wow ha ha ha ha……".
A burst of terrifying laughter suddenly came from the garden.
Yang Xukuan and his cousins immediately looked at each other, feeling a chill go down their backs.
Huang Ming opened his eyes and frowned slightly.
"Let's go out and take a look." He stood up and walked out.
Yang Xukuan and his cousins looked at each other and quickly followed out with short sticks in hand.
The laughter came from the garden of the villa next to it. The sound was high and low, and it seemed to be floating.
Huang Ming followed the laughter and soon led everyone to the garden.
There was no one in the garden, but the laughter obviously came from under a peach tree in this garden.
"Hahahahaha...".
Huang Ming frowned and scanned with his spiritual mind, but found nothing.
"Who are you pretending to be here? Get out of here!"
The laughter stopped and the whole garden fell silent, but not for long.
"Hahahahaha..., Wahahahaha...".
Laughter came from another garden.
"Huh? What's going on?".
Huang Ming was also a little confused. How could this laughter move?
"We, let's go, there is really a ghost here."
One of Yang Xukuan's cousins was scared.
"Why go? I don't believe it. Let's go."
Huang Ming didn't believe it and walked over again following the laughter.
Under a tree in the garden of another villa.
"Hahahahaha...", the laughter is still very weird.
"Who is he? Get out of here."
Huang Ming yelled again and secretly increased his vigilance.
The laughter stopped again, and the whole garden became silent again.
But this time, Huang Ming made a discovery.
He found that after the laughter stopped, there were two shallow footprints on the grass in the garden, slowly moving from under the tree towards the entrance of the garden, where they were now.
"Damn it, someone is really pretending to be a ghost."
Huang Ming suddenly felt reassured.
Seeing these two lines of shallow footprints approaching everyone, they immediately staggered out of the garden.
Huang Ming swung his right hand, and suddenly hit the top of the footprints with a "King Kong Tail Swing".
Just listen to "bang".
A white figure stumbled out of the void beside everyone.
"Ghost, ghost, ghost...".
I don't know if it was one of Yang Xukuan's cousins or a cousin who screamed, threw the short stick in his hand, turned around and ran away.
Others were also frightened by this sudden scene.
They all screamed "Ghost" and ran away, "Click rub rub rub rub". In a blink of an eye, Huang Ming was the only one left.
The person who stumbled out of the void was a young man, probably in his early twenties.
Wearing a white double-breasted shirt, he is eye-catching in the dark night.
A yellow paper charm was slowly falling from the young man's body.
"A cultivator of immortality, or in the early stage of foundation building? It's your sister."
Huang Ming screamed in his heart that it was not good.
I didn’t expect that when I came to catch a ghost, I would also encounter an immortal cultivator, and it was still in the early stage of foundation building.
This time it was a bit troublesome. He was not sure of victory.
As for the man in white, he didn't run away or take action after revealing himself. Instead, he looked at Huang Ming very curiously.
"Huh? How did you find me?"
"My invisibility talisman is a mid-level spiritual talisman. Only monks at the Golden Core stage and above can discover it."
"Could it be? Are you from the Golden Core Stage?"
Huang Ming was slightly stunned.
Hey, can't this guy see his own cultivation?
Huang Ming's heart moved and he became a dramatist.
"Since you know that I am a monk in the alchemy stage, why don't you tell me truthfully why I am pretending to be a ghost here?"
"You? You? Are you really a senior Danqi?".
The man in white's expression changed, and he even changed his title.
Like the monks from Qian Gu Sect, he could see that Huang Ming had the faint white light of the early stage of foundation building.
But in this layer of pale white light, there is a trace of golden light flickering faintly.
He was also unable to determine Huang Ming's true cultivation level.
Huang Ming felt happy and continued to pretend.
"Stop talking nonsense and answer my question quickly? Who are you?".
"I..., oh, back to senior, I am a disciple of Qiuye Valley in Huashan, Huizhou, and my name is Chen Zhiqiang."
"Huizhou Huashan Autumn Leaf Valley?".
Huang Ming was stunned for a moment.
He recalled the time when he and Xiao Hua participated in the Taibai Trading Conference and saved the United States heroically, and because of this, he offended the Wang family in the capital.
"Since you are a monk from Qiuye Valley, why do you come all the way to southern Xinjiang to pretend to be a ghost?"
"Don't you know that immortal cultivators cannot use spells on mortals?".
Huang Ming asked again.
"This, this is a matter of our secular industry in Akiye Valley"
"Senior, it's best to leave it alone, unless you want to offend our Akiye Valley."
Not only did Chen Zhiqiang not admit his mistake, but he also used Qiuye Valley's reputation to sound a bit harsh.
"Damn it, what I hate most is to be threatened. If this is the case, then I still have to control it."
Huang Ming stretched out his hand and made a "Vajra Punch", which was a straight punch.
Chen Zhiqiang was shocked and patted his waist to sacrifice the magic weapon.
But the two stood too close and Huang Ming punched suddenly.
Before he could use his magic weapon, he was hit in the chest by Huang Ming's Vajra Pillar.
Chen Zhiqiang's body trembled and his mouth felt sweet.
"Poof" a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he half-knelt on the ground.
Originally, Chen Zhiqiang's cultivation could avoid Huang Ming's attack. After all, he was still in the early stage of foundation building.
But Chen Zhiqiang did not expect that Huang Ming would suddenly take action.
Because under normal circumstances, high-level monks will not take action against low-level monks.
This is also an unwritten rule for cultivating immortals and hiding in the world, which involves the balance of force between the various factions.
That is to say.
Battles among immortal cultivators generally only take place between people of the same level, unless it involves the life and death of the sect.
The reason is simple.
Because every sect has high-level monks, if you use the big one to bully the small ones, then I will retaliate, and in the long run, everyone will not be able to live in peace.
Therefore, there is a rule that all immortal cultivators generally fight at the same level.
Of course, this is all on the surface.
It is not uncommon for high-level monks to secretly kill people and seize treasures.
