I was about to fall into the river with Heizi, but fortunately Feng Shiyi took action in time and threw Heizi and me to the shore.
I was just about to celebrate after the disaster, but the old man Feng Shiyi made me cry with just one sentence.
"If I had known, I would have jumped over with you directly..." Feng Shiyi looked at Heizi with disgust.
It was right to think about it. The river was only more than thirty meters wide. With Feng Shiyi's cultivation level, he could just jump into whatever stone he wanted.
The reason why he stepped on stones to cross the river was just to show us.
"Thank you..." Heizi came back to his senses and looked at Feng Shiyi angrily.
"Old man, what kind of fish is that in the river?" Zhang Zhimin was more interested in the fish in the river.
"Those are not fish, they are all innocent souls. Let's go." Feng Shi glanced at the river, turned around and walked forward.
"Wrong soul?" This time it was our turn to be surprised.
We couldn't help but look towards the river.
I didn't have the opportunity or time to look carefully before, but now it seems that those fish-shaped things really seem to have a human face.
"It's like that little underworld thing..." Zhong Ke'an shuddered as he said it.
"Why is there such a thing in this place?" I caught up with Feng Shiyi and wanted to find out.
"Have you never heard of Lingshan?" Feng Shi stopped and looked at us with some confusion.
"Are you talking about the Taoist Holy Land?" Zhang Zhimin seemed to recognize the Lingshan Mountain that Feng Shi mentioned.
"Is this Lingshan?" Haitang and Mudan asked at the same time, as if they also knew this place.
We were the only ones who didn't know, so we had to look at each other and wait for the answer.
"Since it's Lingshan, why are there so many evil spirits?" Heizi didn't have that much patience.
"Many years ago, due to the special terrain of this mountain, many evil spirits were bred, so the Taoists suppressed them all the way and built a Taoist temple on the top of the mountain." Feng Shiyi said it very easily, but it is not difficult for me to imagine the scene at that time. .
"Then what we encountered is not some kind of barrier? Is it the evil spirit sealed in this mountain by the formation?" Zhong Ke'an couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, you can understand it that way." Feng Shiyi nodded slightly.
"No wonder my father told us to come and have a look..." Haitang said thoughtfully.
"It's really good to have the opportunity to come and see it. Many Taoists will never have the opportunity to step into Lingshan Mountain in their lifetime." Feng Shi said with a smile.
"No wonder even people like Uncle Master who don't care about worldly affairs can't help but come here, and Wen Renhou, they must all know that this place is the legendary Lingshan Mountain." I suppressed the excitement and thought in my heart.
"Okay, don't think about it, just find a place to stay." Feng Shiyi said and walked forward.
But I still had too many questions, so I had to follow Feng Shiyi’s footsteps and ask as I walked.
"That river just now couldn't be the River Styx, right?" Heizi was faster than me.
"It has similar properties to the River Styx, but it's not the River Styx." Feng Shi didn't bother us at all, so he answered the question.
"Then what happened to the fog we encountered?" What I was most concerned about was this, after all, I got caught in the fog.
"That location has been covered in fog all year round, so there is a charm inside." Feng Shiyi said.
"Mei? Ghost that Mei?" Zhong Ke'an was even more excited than me.
"Yes, it's that thing, that's why you're attracted to it." Feng Shi turned his head and glanced at Zhong Ke'an and me.
Originally I wanted to ask why these things were not removed, but when I thought about this question I felt ridiculous, so I didn't say anything.
These things are so resentful. It would be great if they could be sealed in this mountain to prevent them from running out and harming the world. How can they be eliminated?
"What about the zombie at the beginning?" Heizi grasped the key to the problem.
"Well, I guess it was placed there intentionally by the people from the Taoist temple on the mountain." Feng Shiyi's voice was a bit disdainful.
"Oh, I understand. No wonder we were asked to choose the path in the first place. There must be different evil spirits on each road. In order to increase the difficulty, the Taoist people even placed some evil spirits on the road." Zhang Zhimin looked like he suddenly realized it.
"Well, that's it, but you are really good at choosing and chose the most dangerous path." Feng Shiyi smiled bitterly.
Who says it’s not the case? People have arranged the order for you: A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Rengui. This must be from high to low according to the degree of danger.
"Hey, I'm in trouble this time..." Heizi, who had always liked playing the piano, was actually a little annoyed at this moment.
"What's the trouble?" Everyone's attention was attracted to Heizi.
"We are so strong, how can we get along with everyone when we reach the top of the mountain?" Heizi sighed and looked in the direction of the top of the mountain.
"Your uncle..." I couldn't help but curse out. His Versailles attack really caught me off guard.
That night, Wei Yucheng and Liang Feng still kept vigil, and we set off at dawn the next day.
However, with the lessons learned from the past, we walked very carefully this time, but we did not encounter any dangers along the way.
Finally, before the sun was about to set, we arrived at the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain.
The grandeur of this Taoist temple completely exceeded my imagination. At the end of the stone steps is a huge stone archway with only two words "Lingshan" on it.
The entire top of the mountain is actually flat. You can see the Taoist temple wall across the archway. The fiery red wall looks even more spectacular under the setting sun.
The name of this Taoist temple is naturally "Lingshan Temple".
The size of the Taoist temple is astonishing to me. There are many houses, large and small, built here. I don’t know how many people spent so much effort to build them.
Unfortunately, we were not the first team to reach the summit.
"Okay, everyone is here. Let's rest first and make a decision tomorrow." The one who spoke was naturally the old man we met at the foot of the mountain.
Judging from the old Taoist's posture, he should be the leader of Lingshan Temple.
Following the little Taoist boy, we came to our respective rooms. Me, Heizi, Zhang Zhimin, and Zhong Kean, we deliberately lived together.
Of course, Feng Shiyi is also here with us.
Zhong Ke'an's two sons and Zhang Zhimin's two junior brothers live next door to us.
The three girls’ rooms are not in the same room as ours. The ladies live alone on the same campus.
"We have to make a decision tomorrow. What should we decide on?" Heizi was the first to express his doubts.
"I guess we are discussing how to deal with the Japanese evil ways." Zhang Zhimin said.
"I feel, it's just my feeling, this must be a division of tasks according to strength, otherwise why would we be asked to choose a route on the mountain?" Zhong Ke'an is older after all, and he has a more comprehensive view of the problem.
"I think Brother Zhong is right." I nodded.
"What mission? It's just to deal with the Japanese evil ways. Are we going to do something to test our strength?" Heizi was obviously unhappy.
"We'll know by tomorrow, don't make blind guesses..." Feng Shiyi said and turned over lazily.
