And Gomu and the others were trapped in a strange village.
The story begins half a month ago. The five people were caught in a heavy rainstorm. Because of the heavy rain, they had to find a place to take shelter. After searching for a long time, they found a remote small village.
The village is not big, with only twenty-eight households. Moreover, there are no men in the village, there are only women in the whole village, and there is not a single child in the whole village.
Later, they learned from the old woman who took shelter from the rain that all the men in the village went up the mountain to build a temple for the mountain god. As for why there were no children, Gomu and the others did not find out.
The five people felt that the village was very strange and wondered if this was a test given to them by the Lord Chi Gu, so they stayed in the village. However, after several days of investigation, nothing was found. Not to mention, they were still trapped in the small village and unable to get out.
After that, the three men were assigned by several old women to build a temple on the mountain. In order to investigate the matter, the three Gomu people went to the mountain without resisting.
After going up the mountain, they found that the temple built by these villagers worshiped a god who was actually a monster with a snake head and body.
Seeing this monster, Gomu and the others immediately thought of the monsters from the previous monster wave, which were very similar!
Gomu and the others thought they had found a clue, and when they found an opportunity, they destroyed the temple. Then they will be able to get clues to the test.
A few people secretly sabotaged it, but after it was destroyed, these villagers continued to build like zombies. It seems that until the construction is completed, it will never leave.
Moreover, they did not get any clues from the destruction, so they could only wait to see the subsequent development after the temple was completed.
One month later, Qingcao and the others arrived at the Five Immortals Temple in the Imperial City. They rode horses during the day and flew in the air at night. So I arrived at Wuxian Mountain in the Imperial City in one month.
After asking the young Taoist priest of Five Immortals Temple, he learned that Taoist priest Gao Xuan had traveled to Qin State and had not come back for more than a year.
Qingcao's spiritual sense observed the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple. They were all ordinary people with no trace of cultivation.
They still have to go to Qin State to find Taoist Priest Gao Xuan.
After the five people planned their route, they headed to Qin.
When they arrived at the border of Qin, the five of them also encountered a heavy rain and entered a small mountain village.
But this mountain village is full of old people, with no young adults or children at all.
The five people were taken in by an old man whose surname was He and whose name was Qi. Already seventy years old.
This old man He Qi was very tight-lipped. No matter how Qingcao and the others pried around, they couldn't find any clues.
In the middle of the night, Qingcao and the other five quietly got up and sneaked into He Qi's room. Qingcao took out the hallucinogenic drug and lit it. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Qingcao and the others entered the room.
"He Qi, wake up."
He Qi heard the sound and sat up in confusion.
"Why are there no young adults or children in the village?"
"All dedicated to the mountain god."
"What mountain god? Where is the mountain god?"
"It's Lord Dragon God, in Wulu Mountain."
Upon hearing this, Qingxuan and Qingzhan's eyes widened. What is this old man talking nonsense? The dragon clan doesn't eat people.
"When did the mountain god appear?"
"It's been passed down from generation to generation..."
After asking for the information they wanted to know, Qingcao and the others left He Qi's room and returned to their room.
"Qingcao, you stay in the village for now. I will go to Wulu Mountain alone tomorrow to explore."
"Ancestor, let's go together."
"Be obedient, I'll go check it out first. If there is any situation, I'll contact you through the telegraph."
Since they started practicing, they bought their own talismans and started drawing talismans. Now I have a lot of second- and third-grade talismans on me, and I also bought a medicine furnace to make my own elixirs.
"Okay, ancestor."

After He Qi got up, he glanced at Qingcao and the others: "Where else have you gone alone?"
"Uncle, are you remembering it wrong? There are only four of us?" Qingcao looked at He Qi with a pair of sincere eyes.
"It's obviously five people." He Qi said loudly.
Qingcao said with certainty: "Old man, there are really only four of us."
Qingye said with a scared look on his face: "Sister, the old man has seen a ghost, right?" After saying that, he looked around in fear. It happened that a gust of cold wind blew by, and Qingye shivered.
After hearing what the two said and acting, He Qi doubted himself: Could it be that there were really only four people, and the fifth person he saw yesterday was a ghost.
Thinking of this, He Qi felt a little scared. He quickly ran back to his room, took out a lot of talismans and pasted them on the house. Then he caught a chicken and sprinkled chicken blood on the front and back of the house.
Qingcao and the four of them looked at each other and smiled, then made breakfast and walked around the village.
Leng Wang on the other side took half an hour to reach the temple.
After entering the temple, I saw a statue of a monster with a dragon head and body being enshrined.
Leng Wang squinted his eyes, this monster looked very similar to the monster that attacked the fairy world.
Why would it appear here? Could it be that the reason he wants to leave is to defeat this monster.
I searched the temple, but it was empty, with no one there.
Leng Wang felt weird, the temple was clean, and there was still incense burning in the incense burner dedicated to the monster. This is obviously someone who has been on the spot for a short time. But there is no one in this temple!
Leng Wang thought of a possibility, but if he wanted to verify his possibility, he could only wait until night.
Leng Wang concealed himself and hid in the big tree outside the temple. When night fell, he saw through the layers of leaves that the situation in the temple was just as he had guessed.
Those who worshiped in the temple all turned into ghosts. And these ghosts cannot leave the temple for activities.
Waiting for daybreak, Leng Wang took out the transmission note and sent it to Qingcao.
After Qingcao received the transmission talisman, he entered the mountain with Qingxuan and the others.
After meeting Leng Wanghu, Qingcao and the others waited until dawn. Then they searched the temple from top to bottom, but Qingcao and the others found nothing.
Qing Zhan: "Just destroy this temple, maybe the monster will come out. Then just kill the monster."
Qingcao said seriously: "Our cultivation level is too low now. We will wait until our cultivation level is higher before we kill monsters. And I feel that this kind of temple is not limited to this one. There may be many places."
"Maybe the assessment will ask us to destroy all the monster points and then kill the monsters." Qingcao guessed.
"We still have to secretly investigate everywhere. Then we need to find Taoist Priest Gao Xuan and look for materials that can be used to make high-level arrays."
Leng Wang thought for a while and said: "We will divide our forces. Qing Zhan and I will go to find the monster spot together. The three of you will go to Qin to find Taoist Master Gao Xuan."
"Okay ancestor."
Qingcao and the others have no objection. After deciding, the five people left the small mountain village and then acted separately.
Qingcao followed the map and searched for each mansion one by one. After more than a while, Qingcao finally found out about Taoist Priest Gao Xuan.
Taoist priest Gao Xuan is visiting the Imperial City Palace.
