Upon hearing the news, Master Wen's face showed no signs of emotion at all, and his eyes were still fixed on the chessboard.
Fang Dali was also a little at a loss at this time. This was the first time that the Eight Immortals had directly contacted Master Wen. Every time they came to Master Wen to report on the battle situation on the front line, they could always feel an invisible pressure, which overwhelmed them. I didn't even dare to take a breath.
After a long time, Grand Master Wen slowly placed the chess pieces on the chessboard, glanced at Fang Dali, and said: "Press Jiuyin Guihou to my place. In addition, let General Elai immediately organize his troops to attack the inner city of Fengdu City."
At this time, in front of a swamp twenty miles outside Fengdu City, Mo Lin and the three of them walked out of the dark secret passage. From here, they looked in the direction of Fengdu City and saw a smog of smoke in the sky above Fengdu City. We know whether Fengdu City can resist the attack of the demons.
"Okay, don't be in a daze, our mission is completed, let's leave this place of trouble." Li Ao said.
Mo Lin nodded, and at the same time glanced at Wu Feifei beside him. Thinking of such a terrible curse on her, Mo Lin couldn't help but feel a pity in his heart.
"Mo Lin, do you think Jiuyin Guihou will be fine?" At this time, Wu Feifei suddenly asked.
"Why do you suddenly ask that?" Mo Lin said doubtfully.
"It's nothing, it's just that I feel an inexplicable feeling with Jiuyin Guihou, a feeling that I can't explain." Wu Feifei looked in the direction of Fengdu City and prayed: "I hope he will be safe and sound."
"Ha, it's the first time I've seen you so sentimental. Don't worry, Lord Jiuyin Guihou is very powerful and nothing will happen to you." Mo Lin patted Wu Feifei on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, we should go home. Oh, brother Ao is almost gone."
"Hey, what are you doing? Come follow me quickly!" Li Ao shouted in the distance.
"I'm coming."
Mo Lin and the others went all the way south, walking for a day and a night, and returned to the gate of Guimenguan. Li Ao pointed to the avenue in front and said, "That's the Road to the Underworld. After passing here, we will return to the earth."
Then, Li Ao looked at Mo Lin and said, "By the way, what should I do with the snake god in you? Have you thought about it?"
"Snake God? What snake god?" Wu Feifei asked curiously. Regarding this matter, Mo Lin and Li Ao had not found a chance to tell Wu Feifei yet. Now that Wu Feifei asked, Li Ao simply told Wu Feifei about Mo Lin's situation.
"Ah, then you are about to die!"
"Get out of here, you're about to die!" Mo Lin rolled his eyes at Wu Feifei. Only now did Mo Lin realize that Wu Feifei was really "childlike" and spoke without thinking.
Mo Lin sighed and said: "If there is no better way, then I have no choice but to go back to Snake Mountain and try my luck again. If God really wants me to die, then there is nothing I can do."
"Tch, God won't bear the blame. It's obviously you who took advantage of the situation and reaped the consequences. You can't blame others." Li Ao snorted coldly.
"After you return to the earthly world, you guys should stay at my house for a while. During this time, I will send a message to some of my friends. Maybe things will turn around." Li Ao said.
Mo Lin had no objection to this. The three of them rested at the inn on Huangquan Road for a night, and then rushed to the underworld without stopping.
Early the next morning, the three of them continued on their way. After walking for about seven hours, the sky was finally no longer gray, which also told them that they were about to leave the underworld.
After walking on the mountain road for another two hours, a ray of sunshine finally shone on Molin's face.
Mo Lin felt very comfortable under this beam of sunshine. He had never been exposed to the sun in the past few days in the underworld, and he felt like he was going to be moldy. He had never enjoyed basking in the sun as much as he did today, and Wu Feifei beside him also seemed to be enjoying the sun. His face looked like he was enjoying it.
"Hey, hey, I said you guys are a bit promising, okay? We have just arrived in the underworld, and we are still in the mountains. If you want to bask in the sun, you should come down from the mountains!" Li Ao teased with a smile.
To be honest, no living person likes the environment in the underworld. Even Li Ao enjoys the sunshine in the underworld every time he comes back from the underworld. Therefore, as long as it is not something important, even Li Ao is not willing to go to the underworld. .
The three of them walked and chatted. After a while, they went down the mountain. Then they stopped a taxi on the highway. Li Ao took out five hundred yuan and said, "Go to Gantian Town. There is no need to look for it."
"okay!"
"Gantian Town, Brother Ao, your family lives in Gantian Town." Mo Lin sat in the back seat of the car and asked with a smile, "Is it far from here?"
"It's not too far, maybe thirty or forty kilometers." Li Ao said calmly: "It just so happens that you haven't been to my house yet. I just want to take you there for fun."
The taxi driver was a middle-aged uncle in his forties. When he heard that Mo Lin and the others were going to Gantian Town, he asked while driving: "Brothers, you are all from Gantian Town."
"No, no, he is, but we are not." Mo Lin pointed at Li Ao, the co-pilot, and said with a smile.
"Oh, you are the only one." The taxi took the opportunity to glance at Li Ao and said, "Looking at your age, you must be college students. You are going out with your friends during the holidays, right?"
"Um."
"Then you have to be careful. This area has been a bit unstable in recent days." The taxi frowned and said, "It seems like four or five days ago, a family of three from a nearby town went to the mountain to collect herbs and died on the mountain. .”
"Hey, what do I mean? There are quite a few people who kill people for money and death these days. This kind of thing is reported in the news every day." Li Ao said casually: "We three college students are all poor losers. That gangster can see Come on us.”
When Li Ao said this, Mo Lin couldn't help covering his mouth and snickering twice. Mr. Yin Yang with such strength as Li Ao has five shortcomings and three shortcomings. Although he doesn't have a lot of money, he never worries about money. Everyone in the rental company generously took out 500 yuan and said there was no need to look for it. They also said that they were poor people. How should those poor people who are really short of money deal with themselves?
"Hey, you don't know the details. This murder case is extremely weird. The three members of the dead family didn't have a single scratch on their bodies, but for some reason they turned into withered corpses. Not a drop of blood was left on their bodies. The family members almost died. He was not recognized, and what’s even more strange is that the deceased’s finances were not lost, and there were no useful clues left for the police on the deceased nearby, including the cause of death. It is still unclear what caused the death.”
"The finances have not been lost. Is that a vendetta?" Wu Feifei asked after hearing this.
"Hey, I don't know about that. Anyway, I'll get off work after I'm done with you. It's not safe to work late at night in this world."
Listening to Wu Feifei and the taxi driver chatting harmoniously, Li Ao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, frowned. Years of experience told him that this incident was definitely not an ordinary murder, but a supernatural event!
Mo Lin naturally heard that there was a problem. He patted Li Ao on the shoulder and said, "What do you think of this?"
"Hmph, what can you say?" Li Ao said coldly: "This kind of thing never happened to me when I was in Gantian Town. This happened just after I left for a while!"
"It's okay. Nothing has happened in the past few days. Every household in the nearby town is careful, and so is my family. It's not a good time to go up the mountain. If you have to go up the mountain at night, you deserve to die!" the taxi driver said casually.
The driver didn't hear anything in Li Ao's words, but Mo Lin could tell. He felt that Li Ao was angry.
Soon, the master driver pulled Mo Lin and the three of them to Gantian Town.
Gantian Town is a small town built in the 1950s and 1960s. Until now, the houses in Gantian Town still maintain the architectural style of the 1950s and 1960s, which shows that the economy here is not developed.
It is such a small town, but it has a population of tens of thousands. It is the largest town in the area. Not far from the entrance of the town, there is an old tree that is estimated to be a hundred years old.
Mo Lin walked slowly to the century-old tree and saw four or five thick red ropes tied to the century-old tree. There were talismans attached to the red ropes and several copper coins hanging on them. Mo Lin also vaguely noticed this. A century-old tree may not be an ordinary tree. .br>
"This is the dragon vein tree that protects our Gantian Town from good weather and good weather." Li Ao walked up to Mo Lin and said.
"What! Dragon vein tree!" Mo Lin looked at this century-old tree in disbelief and said, "There is actually a dragon vein in Gantian Town!"
Since ancient times, dragon veins have been a symbol of Feng Shui treasures. Where there are dragon veins, there must be the emperor's tomb. The dragon vein tree, also known as the Feng Shui tree, is a branch of the dragon vein aura. If used well, it can ensure smooth weather for a place.
Li Ao smiled and nodded, and said, "Did you know that the royal family of that dynasty is buried near Gantian Town?"
Maureen shook
He raised his head and said: "There were so many emperors in ancient China, I can guess this."
"It's boring, let me tell you." Li Ao said calmly: "There is a mausoleum not far from Gantian Town. It is the mausoleum of Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing Dynasty!"
"I'll go, Cixi, you didn't lie to me!"
"Tch, why are you lying to me? Do you want me to take you for a walk?" Li Ao said with a smile.
"No, I won't go." Mo Lin shook her head repeatedly and said, "Cixi has been dead for so many years. Who knows if she turned into a zombie, but I won't get into trouble with that."
"Look at your potential." Li Ao rolled his eyes at Mo Lin and said, "If Cixi was still lying in that mausoleum, would I have said it so easily?"
Later, when the three of them were on their way into Gantian Town, Li Ao told Mo Lin that in the 1990s, the Empress Dowager Cixi woke up from her long sleep because of a group of tomb robbers. It was his master Mao Xiaofangfei. After trying their best to clean up the Empress Dowager Cixi, the tomb is now empty.
After hearing what Li Ao said, Mo Lin felt relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go take a look sometime. I haven't seen what the royal tomb looks like."
While they were talking, they had already walked into Gantian Town. It was the afternoon market and meal time. Many townspeople saw Li Ao and greeted him in a friendly manner, and Li Ao responded to them politely.
