Kong Miaozhi took a pinch of Yahuazi and said, "Second Senior Brother, there are rumors all over the world that the living dead of the cult are extremely dangerous, but not many people have dealt with the living dead after all. Do you know what is special about them?"
"you know?"
"I know a little bit. He mentioned it when I visited a senior two years ago. This starts with the factions within the Three Tribulations Sect. Although there is a mixture of good and bad people in the Three Tribulations Sect, they are mainly divided into two factions. The other sect is the ghost way of the dead, and the other is the demonic way that uses the body to become a demon. Although these two sects are collectively called cults, they are different from each other, and the living dead is the specialty of the ghost sect. I have personally heard about the horror of the living dead. When I participated in the siege against the cult leader on the coast of the East China Sea, I told you about that battle that year, Second Senior Brother, there were eight ghost kings around the cult leader at that time, do you know who they were?"
"who?"
Kong Miaozhi recalled what the senior said at that time: "All the second-generation disciples of the Inorganic Sect, the number one Taoist sect in the world. When these eight were born at that time, they were unstoppable in the martial arts world with a complete set of Bagua formations. Unexpectedly, They were actually refined into ghost kings by the leader of the cult. During the decisive battle, these eight people were able to control many living dead, and they were even able to set up the Bagua array that they knew during their lifetimes. I heard from that person that the leader of the cult had gone from start to finish. Wei had never made a move, and just relying on these eight people suppressed the martial arts people until they could not breathe. If the master hadn't arrived at the end, I might not have been able to win at that time."
Gu Wu frowned and seemed to feel troubled: "The cult is so powerful!"
Kong Miaozhi shook his head, took a deep breath and said, "Second Senior Brother, do you find anything wrong with what I just said?"
Gu Wu didn't react and asked Kong Miaozhi directly: "What's the problem?"
Kong Miaozhi did not beat around the bush: "I said just now that those eight people actually arranged the Bagua array they knew during their lifetime. Second Senior Brother, this means that the higher the martial arts skills of these living dead before they were refined, the more powerful they will be after becoming living dead. . If this is the case, if the cult knows about this dead body on the Everlasting Mountain, they will definitely not let it go!"
After hearing this, Gu Wu's exposed pupils shrank sharply: "You mean, those living dead will retain their martial arts skills? Are you sure?"
Kong Miaozhi shrugged: "That's what the senior told me back then, unless the leader of the cult knows how to form the Bagua array and controls the eight people to put it out to defend against the enemy. Otherwise, I think my guess is somewhat reasonable. . However, this kind of thing is against the harmony of heaven and there must be many restrictions. If there were really no restrictions, the evil cult would have dominated the world long ago. "
Gu Wu raised his head and looked in the direction of Mount Burao: "If it's true as you said, this trip to Mount Burao is really dangerous."
After Kong Miaozhi finished talking about the cult, he turned around and said: "A few days ago, I specially sent a letter to our Tianji Sect to ask for some information. I just received a reply from our Tianji Sect these days. I looked at the previous ones. The list of people who have entered the Immortal Mountain is easy to say for everyone else, but there are two groups of people, whether they are humans or ghosts, we need to pay special attention to them."
Gu Wu nodded: "Lao Liu, you have wondered who Zhou Dao is since you were a child."
"One is the Hong family in the northwest. They specialize in poisoning and killing people invisible. During the previous national election, the Hong Laosan was from this family. They usually poison in secret, so don't touch things on this mountain. Just in case. If you’re unlucky enough to be poisoned, it’s a troublesome thing.”
"Well, what about the other team?"
"The other group of people is not from the Central Plains sect. The news came back that the Miao Gu from the southwest also sent people to participate in the battle at Bulao Mountain."
"People from the Southwest Miao Valley? They haven't had any contact with the Central Plains for almost a hundred years. Why did they suddenly come to Bulao Mountain?"
"I also find it strange, but when I saw the people from Miao Valley, I suddenly remembered something. The Miao Gu's ability to control people is somewhat similar to the living dead of the cult. It is impossible to say that there is a shadow of Miao Gu behind this cult. It's just that they are too low-key, and everyone who is low-key has almost forgotten their existence." Kong Miaozhi said this, he laughed out loud and shook his head.
"Second brother, I'm telling you this to ask you to pay more attention. Maybe I'm overthinking it. There's no danger at all on this mountain. It's getting late now. Let's go up the mountain as soon as possible."
Gu Wu nodded, understanding Kong Miaozhi's concerns. After saying this, the two of them deliberated again, walked back a little further, tied the horses far away, and then slowly walked up the mountain. Gu Wu had been here before, and the walk up the mountain was smooth. Bulao Mountain as a whole is not too high, but there are some sections of the mountain that are particularly steep. Bulao Mountain is a typical Erling Mountain. The mountainside Gu Wu mentioned is actually BuLao Mountain. Near a not too high peak of the mountain.
Kong Miaozhi knew that the foot of the mountain had probably been viewed by countless people during this period, but he still took a step to take a look. The two of them walked along the mountain road, but found no signs of anything strange. When people were about to reach the mountainside, they suddenly heard the sound of knives in front of them, followed by the sound of killing.
Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi felt their hearts tighten when they heard this. Gu Wu didn't wait for Kong Miaozhi to say anything, grabbed his belt, and then flew to the side lightly, hiding behind a hillside.
Not long after, I saw two similarly dressed people fighting over me. Both of them wore coarse cloth robes and were dressed similarly. But they started fighting for some unknown reason. Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi saw it in their eyes. These two people were definitely not just showing off, and they were all targeting vital points with every move they made.
Kong Miaozhi didn't recognize him, so Gu Wu whispered: "It's a swordsman from Mobei."
Kong Miaozhi nodded, and the two of them stayed where they were. The two seemed to have a life-and-death feud, and they almost always exchanged injuries for injuries. Not long after, there were seven or eight more wounds on these two people. Finally, when one of them glared, he was no longer ready to hide, and slashed the other person's chest directly with the big knife. Before the man could reach his waist with a slash, a broadsword came in front of him, and then he slashed from the upper left to the lower right. The man fell to the ground immediately after being hit by the knife. Regardless of the blood on his face, the cruel expression on his face suddenly changed. He used his last strength to point his finger at the other person, his eyes showing the fear before death.
The other party laughed loudly, raised his knife, and thrust it directly into the chest of the man on the ground. Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi looked at each other coldly. They looked like life and death enemies. Otherwise, this man would not be so decisive. But what happened next shocked the two of them. The swordsman saw that the other person was dead. After that, without any ink marks, he directly held the knife back in his hand and stabbed himself in the neck. As the knife slid down, his eyes showed a look of fear, but in an instant, his pupils began to dilate. He fell straight to the ground and died.
Kong Miaozhi looked at Gu Wu. He didn't understand what was going on with these two people. After waiting for a while, he saw that these two people looked like they were dead. Kong Miaozhi got up and wanted to go over and have a look. Before they moved, Gu Wu He grabbed him and whispered, "Don't move, there are others."
After speaking, Gu Wu pushed Kong Miaozhi and himself to lean against the hillside again, as if he was afraid that the person behind would find them.
After a while, a female doll slowly walked down the mountain. Although the woman was dressed in Han Chinese clothing, she wore seven or eight silver ornaments on her head. Seeing these two people dying on the road, I chuckled.
"I thought the masters from the Central Plains could be so powerful, but that's all." She walked closer to the two of them step by step, then took out a small smoke stove from her body and slowly opened it. Just when he was about to do something, there was suddenly a rapid buzzing sound in his ears.
"Who is it?" The girl suddenly looked towards where Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi were hiding, and then Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi noticed that densely packed flying insects suddenly appeared around them.
Gu Wu didn't even bother to hide. The way down the mountain was blocked by the girl. He dragged Kong Miaozhi and ran up the mountain.
The little girl looked at them, stunned for a moment, and then sneered.
"It turns out there are two more. There is only one way up the mountain. Don't worry, I will find you later."
After saying that, she didn’t chase them. Instead, she squatted down and opened the incense burner, then put her hand in. When she took it out, there was a touch of enchanting red between her fingers. The girl’s expression became a little solemn, and she slowly put her finger on the dead body. In front of the two swordsmen's mouths, a piece of red liquid-like substance flowed down the girl's fingers into their mouths, and some of the stuff that didn't enter the mouths slowly seeped into the skin of the dead body.
After doing this, the woman stood there and looked at the two dead bodies nervously. After about two breaths, the body of the dead body gradually changed. The person who was obviously dead began to shake slowly, and the shaking became more and more intense. Then the two dead bodies roared for no reason, and their arms were bent into At an extremely exaggerated angle, the whole body was red, as if blood was slowly beginning to seep out of the skin.
I was suddenly excited when I saw this girl. But before she could finish being happy, the red color on the two corpses retreated like lightning. Then the corpses stopped shaking like puppets that had broken free from their strings, and fell to the ground motionless, returning to their just-dead appearance.
The girl's smiling expression hadn't ended yet, and she suddenly became a little angry when she saw this scene.
"What a useless thing. It's not even a monster. It's useless! It's a waste of my aunt's time. I'm so angry!"
After saying that, he put his hands into their mouths again, and the red liquid went back down the girl's arm. Then the girl stood up and said to the two dead bodies
"Get up quickly and go to the mountain to catch those two people. Don't kill them. My aunt, try to survive this time."
As soon as the girl finished speaking, the two dead bodies on the ground stood up unsteadily, and then walked up the mountain step by step, slowly and leisurely at first, then faster and faster, and finally, using their hands and feet together, they flew away like bobcats.
The girl looked at them with disgust, and said to herself: "It's really unlucky. It has failed more than ten times. The two boys who ran up the mountain better be useful!"
After saying that, he hummed a little tune and slowly walked up the mountain with one skip step at a time.
