"Da Ming Mountain? Could it be that the resentment of the moon in Asheng's mouth...is also related to the Moon Viewing Altar?" You Ya covered her mouth in surprise.
Mu Fengchun nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, that's right! I didn't dare to speculate on this matter at first, but Asheng's words just now reminded me, especially when it mentioned the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley. What happened with Gray Teng made me completely wake up!"
"Although I am not good at water, I am not ignorant about it. I have experienced countless rivers, lakes and seas, and I have never felt afraid of water. What I did today is really puzzling! Now it seems that I am the one who was affected by this river. The influence of the resentment of the moon!"
"But Senior Mu, why haven't we been affected in any way?" Wu Hao asked puzzled.
Mu Fengchun sighed and said: "To be honest, I was affected by Gray Vine before, so I didn't mention it to you because I was afraid of delaying my business!"
"No wonder you, little liar, were able to control Gray Vine before. We thought it was your Wood Spirit Bead that played a role, but it turns out that's what happened!" Hui Siling said.
"Is there anything strange about you, Mr. Mu?" You Ya said.
"Don't worry, everyone... Although I have been affected by the gray vine, there is nothing wrong with my whole body. It's just..."
"Just how?"
"It's just that when I inhaled the gray vine powder into my body, I felt that the coldness was mixed with countless resentments, which significantly improved my perception of emotional changes."
"Ah?" Everyone was puzzled when they heard the words and didn't know what to say.
"That's all, I just want to say that there is nothing wrong with me now, let's get back to business!" Mu Fengchun waved his hand and continued: "I heard that people in the Moon Viewing Temple will be buried in the same place after death. , if I remember correctly, that place should be called 'Luoyue Pavilion', which is somewhat poetic and picturesque for a burial ground. It is said that Luoyue Pavilion is shrouded in a white light no matter day or night, regardless of rain or shine, so gentle and elegant. Although the place is simple, it is also dignified..."
"Some people say that this white light is a magic circle that allows the ancestors to rest in peace, while others say that it is a seal that prevents the things inside from coming out. But there are different opinions, and we don't know which one is true! But now that I think about it, the latter theory is more More real!"
"It is said that the Moon Viewing Altar uses moonlight as its magic, but it also causes disasters because of the moonlight! There was once a person who failed to use the Moon Viewing Altar's secret technique by force, but was counterattacked by the moonlight. As a result, he became obsessed, and his whole body was eroded by Yin Qi, which could no longer be condensed. It turned into a puddle of mud. Everyone thought that the man was dead and wanted to bury him, but unexpectedly, the puddle of mud suddenly rose up and directly penetrated into the man's body and took away his life!"
"Because the body-stealing technique has been an extremely evil yin technique since ancient times, the people at the Moon Watching Altar tried their best to kill it. However, they found that this thing was extremely difficult to deal with. Each time the body-stealing technique was used, it would become a little bit stronger. , so I had an idea and sealed it in the Luoyue Pavilion, so that it could no longer contact living people, and this solved the serious problem."
"Because this thing is evil in nature and looks like a swamp, people in Guanyuetan call it 'Zegui'. Although Zegui is good at controlling the night, it has been sealed in the Luoyue Pavilion and cannot make trouble again...until that incident Things happened…”
"One night, a strange scene suddenly appeared in the sky. A crescent moon turned into a golden wheel! After that day, the white light outside the Luoyue Pavilion completely disappeared, and that night the ghosts also disappeared. In the Moon Viewing Altar!"
"Senior, do you mean that Yue Yuan is Zegui?"
"That's right!"
"What should we do! It's difficult to deal with the people in the Moon Watching Altar! Let alone the ghosts in the Moon Watching Altar?" Yu Siling also frowned.
"Don't panic, everyone. Although this Zegui is difficult to eradicate, its weaknesses are very obvious!" Mu Fengchun smiled slyly.
"You little liar, how long have you been showing off?" Hui Siling snorted coldly.
"Hehe! What I mean is that although this Zegui is difficult to deal with, it is very afraid of fire! We have the Molten Hands here. As long as we can hold on until the moonlight dissipates, no matter how strong the Zegui is, we will not dare to act rashly!"
"Senior Mu is overly praised..." Wu Hao scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed to be praised like this.
"Young people should be so humble. Don't be like some people who not only failed to use them, but also broke two oars!" Mu Fengchun shook his head and said.
"Bah! Little liar! Stop being so weird! If you say one more word, do you believe I will use you as a paddle?" Yu Siling raised her eyebrows, pointed at Mu Fengchun's nose and cursed.
Although the two of them were noisy, it did relieve a lot of depression for everyone trapped in the darkness...
"Hush! Let's talk later. Do you feel that the river here is getting darker and darker?" You Ya suddenly whispered.
"Huh? Miss Youya is right...the resentment of the moon in the river is a little thicker than before!" Wu Hao took out a coin from his body and threw it into the river, and found that the coin rolled out on the river. After a few feet, it slowly sank to the surface of the river, and then disappeared with a rustling sound.
"Has the river surface risen? I clearly remember that the water mark was still under the copper ring before!" When Yan Siling broke the oar while pushing the boat, she accidentally glanced outside the boat. At this time, she saw that the water surface was almost submerged. After passing the copper ring that pulled the boat, I couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
"Little White Snake, have you lost your mind on the bank? As the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats. If it rises, it will rise together. How can there be any reason for a rising tide?" Mu Fengchun teased in a low voice: "Judging from the current situation, This boat is probably going to sink. You’d better think of something to do, otherwise I’m afraid it won’t be able to hold on until dawn…”
"Little liar, don't talk nonsense there! Little liar? You...what's the matter with you?" Hui Siling was ridiculed by the words and was about to fight back, but she saw that Mu Fengchun's body was no longer bloody, and even the oil lamp in front of him was gone. They all looked very pale.
"Lava Hand! You quickly use the lava technique again! Mu Lao'er can't hold on any longer!" Youya heard Mu Fengchun's exclamation, and then discovered Mu Fengchun's condition, although Mu Fengchun's tone was relaxed just now , but it should be to avoid everyone's worries and support. Now that Yue's resentment has doubled, he can no longer resist.
"Okay!" Wu Hao hurriedly rubbed his hands, but his hands were only slightly warm.
"Oops! My lava technique has been restricted!" Wu Hao was sweating profusely. Although his hands were faintly red, the temperature on them could no longer rise even a little bit. And as the surrounding river became thicker, the lines of cold disease on Wu Hao's body became clearer. If it weren't for the fire spirit beads in his body to neutralize it, I'm afraid he would have fallen into the same situation as Mu Fengchun.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to sustain this for long. Let's think about how to get out of here, right?" You Ya was also very anxious when she saw this.
"Everyone, the ship is sinking! If this continues, I'm afraid the whole army will be annihilated... Little friend Wu Hao! You use the lava technique to break the resentment of the moon in the river, create a passage the size of a person, and support it to the shore. There is still a glimmer of hope, don't waste your efforts on me..." Mu Fengchun said hoarsely.
"You little liar, please save your energy! If you weren't Mu Lingzhu, I would have thrown you into the river long ago! Once you hold the oar, I will pull you to the shore even if you have to pull me!" Si Ling snorted coldly and handed over the bare paddle.
Mu Fengchun knew that this Yu Siling had a cold face and a warm heart, so he secretly said "Thank you" and said nothing more.
"There's someone!" Just when Wu Hao was about to take action, Huang Qilin's expression changed and he waved to stop a few people.
Everyone covered their oil lamps and looked forward as Huang Qilin lowered his body. They heard a rustle in the grass, and then a black shadow came out, muttering something unknown, and slowly walked towards the river.
The moonlight filtered through the gaps in the forest and finally illuminated the man's face, leaving everyone confused.
"Didn't the cook go back? What did he do when he came back?" Yu Siling suddenly said.
The voice of these words was very delicate, but in this quiet atmosphere, their position was still exposed. The figure who was about to step into the river suddenly froze and looked at the boat in the river in disbelief.
"Hmm...my benefactor? How many guests? Is it you?" the cook asked tentatively.
Seeing that several of them had been discovered and there was no point in hiding, they stood up and responded: "Cook, what are you doing here?"
"Hi... I don't know when you will arrive at Sanchawu, so I thought I would wait here for the boat to come back down the river, and I would take the opportunity to go downstream to buy some supplies." The cook chuckled, "I don't know how many guests there are. Why stop here?"
"We are by the moon..." Yu Siling was about to interrupt when she saw Mu Fengchun stood up supporting the oar and said: "We are running all the way and rarely appreciate the scenery along the way. Now we are attracted by the moonlight. I can’t help but stop the boat and express my feelings!”
"Haha, my guest is really in a good mood!" The cook said with a smile and cupped his fists.
"No, no, it's just leisurely and elegant!" Mu Fengchun smiled faintly, then shook his head and said: "What a pity, what a pity..."
"Why did your guest say this?" the cook asked doubtfully.
"It's a pity that I'm not good at handling a boat, so I turned the two good oars into a single stick. Even if I want to walk, I can't move!" Mu Fengchun shrugged helplessly while holding up the two oars.
"Oh... I see, that's it... I happen to have some ropes for tying the goods with me, which can be used to pull everyone back to the shore. It won't be too late to leave after the oars are repaired!" The cook's eyes flashed. You have to carry the rope into the water.
"No need to go to such trouble! Go on!" Mu Fengchun threw the oar over and shouted: "Guys just need to tie the rope, throw it over, and tie the other end to the tree, and we can reach the shore naturally. Got it!"
The cook didn't have time to react, so he took the oar and thought about Mu Fengchun's words, but before he could say anything, he heard laughter from the other side.
"What is your guest laughing at?" the cook asked in confusion.
Mu Fengchun's face turned cold and he said, "What are you laughing at? Of course I'm laughing at you!"
