Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi nodded, turned around and walked down the mountain. Gu Wu may have felt that Kong Miaozhi was walking too slowly, so he walked out of the mountain gate, picked up Kong Miaozhi's belt, and ran down the mountain like flying.
The journey down the mountain is obviously much faster than the journey up the mountain. Just when the two of them were halfway up the mountain, a pale light suddenly emitted from the mountain gate, covering the entire Everlasting Mountain. Then they heard countless cries from all around. The sound was like ape's hooves or the cry of a baby. Voice.
There are more and more white lights nearby. From a distance, the old mountain looks like a holy mountain wrapped in light.
When Gu Wu saw this situation, he knew something was going to happen, so he accelerated his steps a little faster. Just when he was at the foot of the mountain, he suddenly heard the sound of wind coming from behind him. Just as Gu Wu was about to turn around, he was slapped hard from behind. Gu Wuyi didn't use any strength for a while, and Kong Miaozhi and himself rolled down the steps and down the Immortal Mountain.
When Gu Wu rolled three times from the ground and stood up, he found that there was nothing behind him.
At this time, the light on the Burao Mountain slowly receded. It seemed that the "Thirty-Three-Level Falling Flower Array" had completed its mission and had stopped.
Kong Miaozhi got up from the ground, looked at Gu Wu, and said to him with a smile: "Second brother, it's so dangerous, we almost ended up confessing here, but God has been kind to us, not only did we find out According to the news, everyone has to go down to the Immortal Mountain in full shadow." Kong Miaozhi looked at Gu Wu with a smile, completely unlike someone who had just escaped from death.
Seeing him like this, Gu Wu knew that Kong Miaozhi already had the answer in his heart, so he couldn't help but asked curiously: "Lao Liu, do you know something? Tell me."
Kong Miaozhi likes to show off in front of Wu Qi, but he never hides it in front of Gu Wu. Gu Wu is too thoughtful, and Kong Miaozhi is afraid that he will think too much.
"Second Senior Brother, we came to Burao Mountain to look for clues about the living dead. Just now Master San Duan said that someone used the 'Thirty-three Layers of Luohua Formation' to feed the dead on Burao Mountain. This means that Burao Mountain must have something to do with the cult, 'Thirty-Three-Level Luohua Formation' The three-level Luohua Formation requires the right time, place, and right people. The right time is tonight's full moon night, and the right place is the pattern of the Bulao Mountain. People and people are the dead bodies on the Bulao Mountain. If I guessed correctly, those white lights just now It’s a precursor to the resurrection of the living dead.”
"Are you saying that the dead bodies on the Everlasting Mountain haven't moved at all? They are still on the Everlasting Mountain."
"It should be so. You didn't find it before. I'm afraid it's because the cult's special Qi-nourishing method blocks the smell of dead bodies. Master San Duan said that this Eternal Mountain is not built on dragon veins... No, Second Senior Brother, leave quickly. , the Everlasting Mountain is about to collapse."
Kong Miaozhi's expression suddenly changed as he spoke. He hurriedly found his horse with Gu Wu, and then galloped away to the north.
About an hour later, Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi felt that the ground suddenly began to shake, followed by loud noises from behind, like thunder or a giant bell. The horse spun around in shock, not daring to run any further, its limbs trembling, and finally flopped down on the ground. Gu Wu and Kong Miaozhi jumped up and ran forward hurriedly without caring about anything. Before they could run very far, a wave of air hit them that they couldn't resist, and the two of them were swept up from the ground into the air like kites with broken strings.
The sound lasted for half an hour before it gradually subsided, and the earth stopped shaking. Kong Miaozhi and Gu Wu had been thrown a hundred steps away, and they passed out on the road, unconscious.

After Du Jie and the others left the Li Mansion, Chu Mu had no intention of doing anything else and asked Changsun Wufang to take care of Ye Qingcheng while he wandered around the Li Mansion. Li's Mansion occupies a huge area, and the sky was slightly bright at this time, but the more Chu Mu walked around, the more he felt uncomfortable, and he always felt that something was wrong.
Chu Mu walked straight in from the Yingbin Building. When he reached the second door, he saw the door open. Only then did Chu Mu realize that something was wrong.
Along the way, except for the sound of himself walking, he heard no other sound. There was no human voice, no birds chirping and frogs chirping, not even a trace of wind. The Li family was too quiet at this time, as quiet as a tower. Damn it, this is so weird.
Chu Mu stood there in a daze, feeling that his consciousness was slowly being threatened by the quiet environment around him, and he was slowly flying out of his body. At this moment, the first ray of sunlight from the east shone into the Li Mansion, and a loud rooster crow came from the inner house, the sound was high and loud, piercing the sky.
Only then did Chu Mu shudder violently and wake up. This time, cold sweat soaked through the whole body, and the entire Li Mansion seemed to wake up after the sound of the rooster's crow. Suddenly, there began to make noises, and the maids and servants walked out of the corner one by one.
These people seemed to have been staying there all along, and came out with this cry, but Chu Mu was very sure that there was no human breath at all in that place just now. This is so strange.
Chu Mu was brought by Mu Yanbin, and the maids and servants didn't show any surprise when they saw it, and started working hurriedly. This made Chu Mu wonder for a moment whether it was his illusion that he was so quiet just now.
Chu Mu walked through the second door and wanted to go inside.
Suddenly, two old women blocked the way at the entrance of the three gates.
"Sir, inside is the eldest lady's Buddhist hall. The eldest lady is used to being alone and doesn't see any strangers."
Chu Mu glanced inside and saw that the door was closed. He nodded and turned back.
On the way back, I happened to bump into Mu Yanbin coming to say hello to the eldest lady. When I saw Chu Mu, I was a little stunned.
"Mr. Chu, you got up so early. Why are you here? Is it because the servants are not serving you well?"
Chu Mu smiled: "My junior brother and the others went out to do some errands. I couldn't sleep, so I walked around the house and almost disturbed the eldest lady's Qingxiu."
Mu Yanbin was a little surprised when he heard that Chu Mu said that several junior brothers had left: "Whatever needs to be done, just give the order. I also bothered a few young heroes to make a trip. Could it be that my adoptive father already has clues?"
Chu Mu shook his head: "That's not the case yet, but there will probably be more after they come back. Brother Mu, you are here to pay your respects to the old woman, so I won't disturb you."
Mu Yanbin nodded and walked past Chu Mu. I don't know if it was Chu Mu's misunderstanding, but Mu Yanbin always seemed hesitant to speak, which was not normal.
Chu Mu walked out of the second door and returned to the guest house. It was bright now. Changsun Wufang was having breakfast with Ye Qingcheng when he saw his elder brother coming back. Changsun Wufang also served him a bowl of porridge.
"Senior Brother, have you found any clues in the Li Mansion?"
Chu Mu shook his head, but hesitated and asked: "Lao Wu, you have been in Li Mansion for a long time, have you ever observed this at night?"
Changsun Wufang was obviously taken aback when his elder brother asked this question.
"This has never happened before at night. The few of us have been followed since the day we entered Li's house. It's not convenient to move around at night, so we haven't gone out to see it. Senior brother, did you find something by asking this?"
"No, I just feel that the Li Mansion is too quiet at night. It's so quiet that no one noticed when Junior Brother and the others left. It's so quiet that this house looks like a dead house."
Changsun Wufang and Ye Qingcheng glanced at each other, and then they both thought about something thoughtfully. Finally, Ye Qingcheng spoke.
"Brother, what should we do next?"
Chu Mu thought for a while and finally said with a smile
"I've thought of an idea. It's easy for Lao Liu to do this, but I can't wait for him now, so I'll do it. Lao Wu, you will call Mr. Mu here later and tell me that I have news about his adoptive father. Yes, let him definitely come here."
Changsun Wufang nodded and said: "Okay."
After breakfast, eldest son Wufang went to invite Mu Yanbin. Mu Yanbin happened to be coming too, and he was overjoyed when he heard the news that eldest son Wufang had a foster father. He hurriedly came to the Yingbin Building and saw Chu Mu asking anxiously
"Why, Mr. Chu already has an idea."
Chu Mu waved to eldest son Wufang to close the doors and windows, then sat down and poured a cup of tea for Mu Yanbin: "Mr. Mu, don't be in a hurry, have a cup of tea first, and I'll tell you slowly."
Mu Yanbin couldn't drink it, so he quickly asked: "Mr. Chu, please stop hanging on me. If you have any news, please tell me immediately so that I can rescue my foster father."
Chu Mu smiled slightly and said calmly: "Brother Mu, why are you so sure that something unexpected happened to your adoptive father?"
Mu Yanbin was obviously taken aback, and then said angrily: "Mr. Chu, I regard you as my savior, and you are entertaining me like this. If my adoptive father is okay, there is no way he has not returned home for so long. If you have any news, please tell me Say, don’t make such assumptions about me if you don’t.”
Chu Mu poured himself another cup of tea: "There is some news, but there is some news. But we need Brother Mu's cooperation."
"How to cooperate?"
"Chu wants to take a look at the eldest lady's Buddhist hall. I hope Brother Mu will ask the eldest lady to come out. It won't take long, half an hour is enough."
"Half an hour? No, no, no. The eldest lady has not left the Buddhist hall for many years. How could the disappearance of her adoptive father have anything to do with her? It is impossible!" Mu Yanbin hurriedly heard that Chu Mu was going to the Buddhist hall. shook his head and said
Chu Mu was not in a hurry and said to Mu Yanbin: "Brother Mu, drink tea."
Mu Yanbin picked it up and drank it down in one gulp and continued: "Mr. Chu, I think this is impossible. The eldest lady usually lives in seclusion, so it is impossible for her to do such a thing."
Chu Mu picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea.
"Brother Mu, whether it is yes or no, it will be clear after investigation. I won't hide it from you. My fifth sister was born with excellent five senses. She told me that there was a faint light near the eldest lady's Buddhist hall. The corpse aura, Brother Mu, if the eldest lady is in danger, even if your adoptive father comes back safely, how will you explain it then. Even if this corpse aura has nothing to do with the disappearance of your adoptive father, what about the safety of the eldest lady? Do you still care? in spite of?"
"This..." Mu Yanbin didn't expect Chu Mu to say this. He stared at the tea cup in front of him for a long time before finally saying
"Well, Brother Chu is also doing this for the sake of my little brother's family affairs. I will think of a way and give you an answer today."
"Okay, then I will wait here for Brother Mu's good news." Chu Mu said with cupped hands.
"Farewell." After Mu Yanbin finished speaking, he turned around and left the reception building without being polite. Chu Mu looked at Mu Yanbin's leaving figure and his eyes became sharp.
