The blurry old face didn't open its eyes, its mouth trembled slightly, and it let out a few breathy sounds.
Lu Yuan listened carefully but didn't hear clearly.
Instead, there was a white smoke-shaped talisman in the fireworks, about the size of a palm, with a ghostly talisman on the outside and a direction arrow in the middle, pointing to the northeast.
Lu Yuan took the talisman, and his mind was naturally affected. His eyes seemed to be vaguely inspired. He looked through the mountains and forests and saw a prosperous town shrouded in night. Then his eyes traveled again, guiding him to the farther northern trail. .
The road continued to extend, passing through one mountain fortress after another, and the traces of humans gradually became scarce. Then the inspirational guidance of the talisman ended here, and its ability was limited.
Unless Lu Yuan took this talisman with him and felt another inspiration at the end, extending the road.
"Feel the talisman. What are the place names in this direction?"
Lu Yuan asked Zhuge Xiu to take over the guidance talisman of the ancestors.
Zhuge Xiu worshiped his own ancestors, but not the ancestors of other families.
Faced with such a strange situation, he had some doubts.
He was afraid that his own family might not be happy if he got something belonging to other people's ancestors.
After all, this is something that belongs to other ancestors.
"Don't be afraid, the smell can dissipate naturally and will not affect your home's incense and luck." Lu Yuan said.
After hearing this, Zhuge Xiu took the talisman with confidence.
"Hey, my eyes..."
Zhuge Xiu still wanted to say it was magical, but suddenly he closed his mouth and felt his eyes traveling across the earth.
Familiar scenes passed through his mind, and after a while, he ended the induction.
His face was full of shock.
"The methods of our ancestors are really mysterious. Senior Lu, this junior has learned from me."
Zhuge Xiu bowed politely to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan had confusion on his face, not understanding why he wanted to respect him.
Just ask him to find the place name.
Maybe it's something related to the ancestors that makes the locals feel quite mysterious.
The method Lu Yuan used just now was the use of the evil-suppressing light to control spirits.
Taming spirits is one of the techniques of beast manipulation, and this is not taught in the cultivation departments of universities.
Lu Yuan learned the spirit-controlling knowledge in his free time when he was studying the evil object nemesis system. This kind of knowledge is mysterious, and it is indeed related to the mysterious system.
Inviting someone else's ancestors is just the first step.
After obtaining consent, you can use someone else's power to intervene in this matter, thus becoming connected with the evil spirits in the Netherworld.
If you become capable in the future, you can rely on this karma and use spirit control techniques to find the whereabouts of evil spirits.
There is another situation.
The ancestors of the Xu family knew where the evil spirits had gone and automatically evolved spiritual things.
The beastmaster uses this to get some inspiration and knows where to go.
For example, the incense talisman in Zhuge Xiu's hand was transformed from the thin incense of the ancestors of the Xu family.
Lu Yuan is only a three-star beast master, and what he can do is very limited. At this stage, he can only burn incense and pray, burn money to worship, and do some simple spiritual invitations.
The matter of removing spirits is left to the Nian beast Dabai.
"What places did you see?"
"At first glance, I saw Qianshan City, and then several villages in the north. Further to the north, the sparsely populated areas are the border gates of Dazhou. The evil spirits may have escaped into the wilderness. We can't find them even if we chase them. It’s not a place where humans can go.”
Zhuge Xiu shook his head, feeling a little regretful.
"That's it." Lu Yuan thought thoughtfully.
"How far is that pass from Qianshan City? How many days' journey does it take?" Lu Yuan asked again.
"It's about a month or two's journey. It's difficult to walk in the deep mountains and there's no easy way. What do you mean?"
"Nothing, just calculating the distance."
Lu Yuan calculated the distance in his mind and immediately knew how far Xie Sui had traveled.
It is only a few days' walk from here to Qianshan City.
However, the evil spirit actually traveled a month or two.
If they all traveled by flight, they could indeed be moved out within a few days.
But what if you don’t move?
Lu Yuan looked back at the dilapidated ancestral temples. The moonlight at night shone into the ruins. Three broken human statues stood behind the worship table, with the moonlight covering them like clothes.
Three figures sit cross-legged in ancient weeds, with aerial roots of plants climbing up their bodies. Some have no heads, some have lost half of their faces, and one has his eyes, eyebrows, and lips worn away by the traces of time. , only the deeply sunken eye sockets and the bridge of the nose remain.
Apart from this, Lu Yuan did not see the evil spirit, but only saw the vitality filling the ancestral temple.
"These three statues?" Lu Yuan asked Zhuge Xiudao beside him.
In modern times, there are three incarnations of gods in the world of beast control.
It is said that they originated from the original era and represent the three development directions of beast masters, representing strength, agility and wisdom respectively.
To modern people, this is an ethereal cultural symbol, more of a symbolic meaning.
I don’t know if there was a theory of the incarnation of three gods in ancient times.
If it appears, what is its name?
Zhuge Xiu carefully identified the clothes of the three-body statue. They were not the clothes of the Celestial Master, but local clothes, and shook his head.
"This is probably my ancestor. It's nothing unusual. I also have it in my family."
When Lu Yuan heard what the locals said, he gave up the idea.
Lu Yuan took out the paper money and burned a stack of paper money on the spot. After chanting a few words, he invited the newly assembled tablets to be returned to the ancestral temple and placed on the wooden table that was invaded by weeds.
Wherever these tablets come from, they will go back there.
From Lu Yuan's inner perspective, the beast control master surnamed Wang is more worthy of sympathy. The ancestors of the Xu family did something unethical and deserved to die and be enslaved by evil spirits.
Lu Yuan asked him to go back just because he wanted to benefit from this karma and find the four-star evil resources for Nian Beast Dabai.
Lu Yuan was about to leave, and when he saw the weeds all over the hall, he did not intend to help the ancestors of the Xu family take care of the ancestral temple.
I originally wanted to find the tombstone surnamed Wang, and use the spirit control method to invite people to come out and pay respects.
It seems that we have no chance to meet now.
"Let's go, go back to the village, and then go to Qianshan City." Lu Yuan said.
The more I look here, the more normal it becomes. I can't find any evidence and a sense of crisis.
He could only feel the traces of time left by the hand of hundreds of years on this place.
If this was really an evil deception, then Lu Yuan could only admit defeat.
For the current Lu Yuan, there is no solution.
Only when Dabai's evil-suppressing light breaks through to the next level can he come back to see if there is anything abnormal in the area.
"Okay." Zhuge Xiu looked a little excited after meeting the ancestors of the Xu family.
You can brag about this kind of thing for a whole year.
He believed that no one would experience such a mysterious thing.
Who dares to believe that the ancestors of the Xu family a hundred years ago are still alive, even though their incense has been cut off for a hundred years.
Not long after, Lu Yuan left the dilapidated ancient village and ended his journey to the ghost realm.
The destination for the next stage - Qianshan City!
There, there is the Whirlwind Martial Arts School, as well as other pet beast Martial Arts Schools that I have never seen before.
Lu Yuan could not wait to start research on his thesis.
