But the wind in the mountains always seems to be unreasonable. The wind is getting stronger and colder every now and then. It is late spring and early summer, and it actually makes everyone feel cold all over their bodies.
At this moment, everyone noticed that something was wrong.
A fat man said cautiously: "Gang leader, there are indeed some evil spirits in this mountain. How about we leave?"
"Humph, why are we walking? Didn't the wind blow a few times? Look, I'm scaring you cowards." Yu Tianxing sneered: "People are 30% afraid of ghosts, and 70% of ghosts are afraid of people. In this bright world, as long as you are in your heart, No ghost, even if a demon comes, you have to weigh it carefully. Those monsters in the mountains are the best at scaring people's hearts. Once the courage in your heart is broken, your popularity will be gone, and those monsters will kill you.
So, I am brave enough, who of the cowards is scared? "
Yu Tianxing said some words of encouragement, and everyone felt relieved and started catching snakes again.
Only Old Man Jiang who was on the side saw the strange wind suddenly blowing up and shouted: "Liu Xian is here! Master Liu Xian is here!"
Yu Tianxing turned his head and said coldly: "You two, go and throw that old man Jiang into this snake nest. Doesn't he worship a snake every day? Then let's see if the willow fairy he worships can help him survive. .”
The two men chuckled and immediately walked towards Old Man Jiang.
At this moment, a cold wind that was more terrifying than before blew up, causing sand and rocks to fly in the mountains. A group of snakes woke up from their mating confusion and fled one after another. A group of people were so blown by this strong wind that they couldn't even stand up. Sand and dust were all over the place as if in the blink of an eye. A layer of heavy fog suddenly appeared, making it difficult to see the surrounding scenery.
"Hiss, hiss~"
A cold snake cry echoed through the forest, startling everyone to fear again.
In the strong wind that filled the sky with flying sand and rocks, a white figure suddenly wandered around everyone
Suddenly, a terrifying scream sounded.
"Ah~ Snake, snake, such a big snake, ugh..."
The screams stopped suddenly, as if it meant that the owner of that voice was no longer around.
Everyone finally couldn't bear the psychological pressure. Liu Xian, who was in great fear and talked to Old Man Jiang all the way, overwhelmed his psychological defense.
This is how human beings are. Once a seed is planted in the heart, it will grow into a towering tree at some point, whether it is a seed of fear or love and hate.
Many people no longer cared about treasures or getting rich, and wanted to escape.
Yu Tianxing shouted loudly: "Don't mess up your position, quickly take out the housekeeping things!"
Unfortunately, a huge roar of wind drowned out his voice and no one could hear him.
Yu Tianxing cursed loudly and became nervous. He quickly took out a small can of smoke oil from his body and poured himself from head to toe without caring about anything else. Then he hurriedly ran down the mountain carrying a bag of snakes that were stunned by sulfur.
No matter what caused him trouble, nothing could stop him from making money. This is the fierceness of Yu Tianxing, greed, fearlessness, and cruelty.
This bag contains some of his most cherished exotic snakes. Even if there is only one bag of snakes, it can at least be exchanged for dozens of taels of silver to those big merchants, which is enough for him to make a living elsewhere.
Bai Jun opened his mouth and spat out a gust of evil wind again, and then used his body to use the Ruyi magic, and turned into an eight-foot-long giant python. With one tail, he whipped three or two people away and knocked them into the snake tide stream. Even if they were slapped by his snake tail, If you deliberately leave your hand alone, at least the muscles and bones will be broken.
Thirty-eight snake catchers had their muscles and bones shattered in the cold wind, and were thrown into the tide of snakes. They were drowned by snakes one after another in their frightened screams, and merged with the huge snake tide.
The wind stopped.
People are gone.
Only Old Man Jiang, who was kneeling on the ground holding his head, slowly raised his body. Everything just now seemed like a dream, if it weren't for the scattered snake bags and sand and stones on the ground.
He turned around suddenly and saw a figure like a white dragon leaving along the stream and disappearing into the mountains.
Old Man Jiang kowtowed three times in succession with tears streaming down his face: "Liu Xian is merciful! Thank you for your great mercy!"
…
In the mountain forest, Yu Tianxing was running crazily with a bag of snakes on his back without looking back. Suddenly a rattan in the grass tripped him and he fell to the ground accidentally. The bag of snakes on his back fell apart even without tightening it. Open, more than thirty snakes are limply trying to crawl out.
Yu Tianxing's chin was bruised and bleeding, but he didn't care. He just hurriedly grabbed snakes and put them into the snake bag.
"Hoo~"
A gust of mountain wind blew past me from behind, and a chilly feeling penetrated into my bones.
Yu Tianxing hurriedly looked back. The mountains and forests behind him were lush and green, with no wind at all and it was very quiet.
He thought to himself that he was getting suspicious, so he continued to grab the snake and put it into the bag. The snake bag was soaked in special medicinal materials, including realgar, sulfur and other substances. Once the snake entered it, it would become limp, just like a person who had taken the sweat medicine.
However, a krait crawled out of the bag and regained its strength after a while. It opened its mouth and bit Yu Tianxing's arm.
He groaned in pain, quickly grabbed the snake's head, held it within seven inches and threw it away.
Yu Tianxing couldn't care less about pretending to be a snake anymore. The krait was so venomous. He hurriedly opened his mouth to suck out the venom, then took out a special anti-venom and sprinkled it on the wound. He tied his arms with coarse cloth strips, and then carried the snakeskin bag. On the way.
After taking two steps, he felt a little tired, and even felt a little dizzy. In the dense forest, only wisps of sunlight could shine through. Apart from the sound of his footsteps, the only sound left was Yu Tianxing's breathing and heartbeat.
This mountain forest is a little too quiet!
Yu Tianxing suddenly became vigilant. Although he was fierce and cruel, he was by no means a fool. Normally, even if there were no people in the forest, there would be insects and birds chirping, but it was so quiet here that he couldn't hear a single insect chirp. He was the only one. breathing sound.
He raised his head and turned his eyes 360 degrees to see the dense forest as far as the eye could see, which was eerily quiet.
There is a saying among humans: "The unknown is the scariest thing."
It is this unknown terror that far outweighs the terror of seeing ghosts directly. That kind of panic that is everywhere all the time is too draining.
Yu Tianxing put down the snake bag on guard, and said in a cold voice: "What kind of beast dares to show off in front of your uncle Yu? If you are sensible, get out of here, otherwise, don't blame uncle Yu for stewing you without mercy."
His voice echoed in the quiet forest, but no one answered.
In the darkness, Bai Jun was confused. Although this human being was so weak and had no internal martial arts, he had an aura that made him feel very uncomfortable.
After thinking for a moment, I came up with the answer. Perhaps this is what people call courage. There is an energy in this human being that can be called courage. This courage can be regarded as the strongest and most yang energy. Coupled with the strong evil energy in this person, it is enough to scare away some monsters with shallow cultivation.
But what he met was Bai Jun, not an extraordinary monster.
Bai Jun opened his mouth again and spat out a stream of demonic wind. In an instant, there were strong winds, the branches and leaves were rustling, and the wind howled. Yu Tianxing grabbed a tall tree and hugged it tightly, but did not notice that the snake bag on the ground had been blown away by the strong wind. , venomous snakes crawled out.
Bai Jun poked out a huge snake head from between the trees, stared at Yu Tianxing with a pair of upright and indifferent eyes, and his eyes flashed.
Yu Tianxing was shocked when he saw a huge snake head sticking out. It wasn't until he realized that the snakes on the ground were crawling towards him that he was horrified to find that his body was no longer obeying his orders and could not move at all. He could not even make a sound. It can't be sent out. There is only one pair of eyes in the whole body that can see a little bit of other places.
A gray snake with a triangular head climbed up the corner of Yu Tianxing's trousers and tried to burrow inside. However, snake catchers usually wear long clothes tightly when entering the mountains to prevent being accidentally bitten by snakes.
Another slender black snake went straight up and burrowed into his belt, burrowing deeper under Yu Tianxing's fearful eyes. Then he felt a chill in his thigh, and then a heartbreaking pain. came.
It's a pity that he couldn't move or even scream, so he could only bear the hatred of root-cutting. If the poisonous snake bites him, he will never be able to keep any seeds in his life.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The snake that climbed onto Yu Tianxing's body was twitching all over, shaking like an epilepsy.
Bai Jun couldn't help but wonder, but when he got closer to this person, he discovered that this person was stained with a lot of smoke oil. He was the nemesis of snakes and insects. Snakes were originally avoided, but under Bai Yan's will, these snakes came forward.
Bai Yan opened his mouth and spit out a few strands of demonic energy that merged into the bodies of several snakes, and then let them go back with a hiss.
He approached the man and decided to kill this greedy human with venom.
But just as Bai Yan was approaching Yu Tianxing, a dazzling golden light suddenly flashed from his chest, which stung Bai Yan's pupils with pain.
Yu Tianxing's stiff body began to move. He immediately screamed, holding back the severe pain in his lower body, and with trembling hands, he untied his clothes and took out the things he was carrying on his chest.
But it is a palm-sized bronze mirror.
He hurriedly held the small mirror in his hand and shouted: "Snake demon, you actually caused me to have no descendants today. I, Yu Tianxing, will definitely take revenge!"
After saying that, Yu Tianxing turned around and ran away.
Bai Yan resisted the dazzling and stinging eyes, and used his big and small Ruyi to turn into a giant eight feet tall. Then he rolled up his snake tail, pulled out an ancient tree and threw it hard at the mortal.
"Boom~"
The thick roots of the ancient tree fell hard, crushing Yu Tianxing's waist vertebrae and bones with huge force, forcing him to the ground, unable to get up.
Bai Jun ignored the opponent's screams and smashed him into pulp again.
This time, he carefully crawled to the mortal body and saw the small bronze mirror. The mirror reflected a bright sun, which was upright and bright, and could ward off evil spirits.
"baby!"
Bai Jun knew that he had encountered a spiritual treasure.
As the old saying goes, old things become fine. Even a jade comb will be contaminated with spirituality and have magical powers over time.
The material of this bronze mirror is good. Although Bai Jun doesn't understand antiques, he also knows that this mirror must be very old. It must have been contaminated with the spirituality of the sun and became a treasure to ward off evil spirits.
Now, of course it belongs to Bai Jun.
Although it can suppress evil and exorcise demons, Bai Jun is an immortal.
The moon rose between his eyebrows, and the confidence of the incense emerged and merged into the small bronze mirror. The bronze mirror was covered with golden light. Bai Jun was ready to turn around to avoid it, but he no longer felt any discomfort. It seemed that the mirror accepted his incense. , which is regarded as a default change of owner.
The incense of the immortal family was integrated into the precious mirror, and the mirror surface became ordinary.
Bai Jun found a treasure by chance, even if he couldn't use it temporarily, he was extremely happy. He held the small mirror in his mouth, looked at Yu Tianxing who had become a meat, and sighed helplessly in his heart. Human beings, those who uphold their duties, and those who have a good heart. There are good people who are cowardly and incompetent, there are also cruel and violent people, and there are even greedy and immoderate people.
Excessive demands for nature and destroying the ecology of heaven and earth are disrespectful to heaven and earth. Bai Jun feels that he has done nothing wrong, whether as a snake demon or a willow fairy.
Moreover, Bai Jun rarely kills people himself. Those who violate the rules of nature should be punished by nature. Since you are here to covet the snake's nest, you will be buried in the snake's nest. If the snakes can't handle it, let him handle it.
Over the long years, Bai Jun gradually became the guardian of order and nature in this mountain forest. Such a being is often called the mountain god by humans.
But the mountains are too vast. There are three human countries close to it on the northern side alone. The people have different beliefs and customs, and the legend of Liuxian is greater than that of the mountain god.
In fact, the most important thing is that Bai Jun's cultivation is insufficient. If he were a great demon in disguise, he would surely be able to gather the faith of all people and become the Earthly Immortal Mountain God.
At present, Bai Jun has discovered that the ways of earth immortals and demon cultivators are not incompatible, and they can live in harmony with each other.
The demon cultivator absorbs the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon to become a demon, and the earth immortal absorbs incense, faith, and inherits the will of heaven and earth to become a god.
Willow Immortals, or the five great immortals of white, yellow, fox, willow and gray, Chengbao Immortal or Chengdema Immortal are actually the first-class path of earth immortals.
These five immortals are the five enlightened animals in folklore. They are the White Immortal as a hedgehog, the Huang Immortal as a weasel, the Fox Immortal as a fox, the Liu Immortal as a snake demon like Bai Jun, and the Gray Immortal. It's a mouse. These five immortals are the five most widely circulated among the people. There are also other more niche immortals, such as Xiong Jing, who is called the Black Immortal, and the Black Old Lady and many other immortals.
In the eyes of sects such as Taoism, Buddhism and even Confucianism, these immortal beliefs are obscene worship of wild gods. They cannot be put on the stage and are destroyed as soon as they are discovered.
However, in a unique dynasty like the Jin Dynasty, a country without the true transmission of Buddhism and Taoism would inevitably need monsters to fill the vacuum of Taoism and Buddhism.
Therefore, in the Jin Dynasty, it is not considered a capital crime for monsters to occasionally eat one or two people. As long as the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, they can be surrendered and become gods.
This is how many mountain gods and water gods in Dajin came to be.
Having said that, among the five great immortals, Liuxian has the most profound magic power, and is mostly responsible for subduing ghosts and eliminating demons, and is the most popular.
As for Baojiaxian and Chumaxian, they are different offerings to the five major immortal families.
Baojiaxian is to enshrine a statue of the deity at home and burn incense and worship it every year. However, Baojiaxian needs to be blessed. Most of them are mortals who are kind to the immortal family to worship a real Baojiaxian. As for most mortals, The immortal family that the family worships is a forced invitation.
But it must at least have some relationship with the Xian family, such as having a dream from the Xian family, or being lucky enough to meet the Xian family.
If you don't have any of these, and you are afraid that it will not be good to forcefully invite the immortal family, then you have to go out and establish an immortal family.
The fairy who protects the family keeps the family safe, and the fairy who goes out to see the doctor and provide disaster relief. There is no distinction between the two kinds of immortals, only their responsibilities are different.
The Chuma Immortal needs a Chuma disciple to set up a hall, usually on March 3rd, June 6th, September 9th and other days to set up a hall for worship. If there is a disaster, you can ask a Chuma disciple to treat it. No need to use medicine or needles. It's amazing how it can cure diseases.
Bai Jun knew many of these belief legends in his previous life, and the source was his father's weird bookshelf.
Nowadays, Bai Jun has become a deity worshiped in some villages, treating villagers from disasters.
Such a thing is not a problem for him. All it takes is the divine power of incense and some wood element aura combined with Shaoyin energy to eliminate minor disasters and illnesses.
But when it comes to life, old age, illness, and death, Bai Jun doesn't have the ability, and if he does, he won't interfere. Moreover, if he wants to take action, it must be someone who sincerely asks him to take action.
It's not that Bai Jun is indifferent, but that the world emphasizes cause and effect. I will give you a stick of incense to repay your kindness. You don't respect me even for a stick of incense, you only ask for it from me, but I am not a great benevolent person, let alone a great compassionate Bodhisattva Buddha. I have a destiny of life and death, and my destiny is impermanent.
