Seeking immortality in a deceitful way starts by making oneself into a puppet

Wu Meizi, who calls himself White Bearded Guest, is a powerful master of the Purple Armor Palace, one of the Nine Evils of Immortality. His aura is deep and mysterious, and his strength is unfathomable.

This man's appearance is also quite strange. There are no eyebrows on his face, but his hair and beard are all light white. His whole face is like a porcelain mask, without much expression.

Wumeizi's strength was enough to make He Ping feel the pressure. Compared to him, the other two people who came here, namely Old Kiln Ghost and Miaohua Granny, also had extraordinary backgrounds.

Lao Yao Gui is an older generation figure who came from the Ghost Crying Sect, one of the Nine Evils. The Ghost Crying Sect has always been a very evil sect that is half human and half ghost. It is said that the entrance method of the Ghost Crying Sect is derived from the Dongyuan lineage of the Taoist sect. Taishang Dongyuan Divine Curse Sutra, its method is known as the upper part can ward off the flying demons, the middle part can cure the five qi, and the lower part can eliminate all demons.

This ancient sutra, Taishang Dongyuan Divine Curse Sutra, consists of twenty volumes. It includes items such as swearing ghosts, removing ghosts, binding ghosts, killing ghosts, banning ghosts, and slaying ghosts, as well as various ghost-controlling talismans.

The founder of the Ghost Crying Sect doesn't know how he obtained the three grades of Swearing Ghosts, Sending Ghosts and Binding Ghosts, and supplemented it with an unknown Tian Abandoned Scripture to create his own The foundation of the Ghost Crying Sect.

The disciples of this sect have very strange supernatural powers and magic. They claim to use their body as a tomb to calm souls and refine ghosts, and use ghost ways to extend their lifespan. This is an alternative method of immortality.

However, the disciples of the Ghost Crying Sect will most likely become half-human and half-ghost after they practice. Not to mention extending their lifespan, they will most likely not live long. Longevity is extremely rare, but short lifespan is more common.

This old kiln ghost who looks like an old country farmer and his three disciples all give people a dark and ghostly feeling.

He Ping just glanced at the old man smoking a dry pipe. Looking at the old face like pot ashes and the deep wrinkles that looked like knife cuts, he couldn't guess the age of this old kiln ghost at all. It can be seen from this that, This old monk from the Ghost Crying Sect is not easy to offend either.

As for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, that is, the Miaohua Granny and the woman in red, He Ping didn't know much about them.

Granny Miaohua should be from the Qi Hun Sect. The Qi Hun Sect ranks low among the Nine Evils and is also called the Soul-Eating Sect. This sect's sect's righteous method of entering the Tao is called Tao Qi Lun. It was originally the authentic sect of Taoism, but I don't know how it caused the cultivation of people of this sect to go astray.

At first, the Qi Hun Sect did not value human skin, focused on divine will rather than Qi, and cultivated one’s nature rather than one’s life. They pursued the path of flying immortals by “traveling to the eight extremes, filling the heaven and earth, and ascending to the sky”. Later generations of disciples even went astray with their swords. Feng regards the skin as a house and often changes it.

Later, hundreds of years ago, this sect produced a powerful figure named Yin Wo Lei Ke Yihan. This man rose from humble beginnings and became the leader of Qihun Sect from a servant. He became the leader. Later, there were still many opposition forces in the sect.

Ke Yihan is extremely talented. After entering Taoism, he realized a strange secret method from Taoist Theory and ordered his disciples to offer their souls. On the one hand, he used this method to blackmail and suppress hostile forces; On the other hand, he also used this to develop an astonishing magical power.

Those disciples also had to go around preying on other people's souls because they lost their souls. From then on, the disciples of the Qi Soul Sect began to feed on other people's souls and became a group of soul-eating monsters. For this reason, practitioners also changed it to the Soul-Eating Sect out of ridicule.

My understanding of Qihun Sect is limited, but Granny Miaohua will be chosen by Chixinzi as one of her collaborators, and her strength will not be that weak...

The interior of the Narcissus ruins is very dangerous. People who are not strong enough will not be able to help, but will become a burden to one's own side. This is why Granny Miaohua and the old kiln ghost were opposed to temporarily adding someone in at first.

White-bearded ghost, the old kiln ghost flicked the remaining leaves in the dry tobacco pipe in his hand and suddenly spoke. The gray-bearded old man narrowed his eyes and grinned.

You've been walking around outside for a long time. You must not be bored, right?

Nothing, it's just that this village is a little weird, so I walked around a little bit.

White-bearded guest Wu Meizi found a chair and sat down.

I picked a farmer, kidnapped him into the dense forest, and used my own punishment methods. Although I tortured him in every possible way, I didn't get any useful information from this person...

As a member of the Zijia Palace, Wu Meizi was by no means a kind person. He noticed that the villagers in the village were a bit strange, so he caught one of them without hesitation, found an opportunity, robbed him in a hidden place, and tortured him severely. , to inquire about information.

Chixinzi...what is going on with the people in this village?

Wu Meizi's eyes were solemn, and he asked in a deep voice: Also, why did you choose to meet here, and where is the Narcissus Cave?

Chi Xinzi smiled happily.

Brother Wumeizi, why are you so impatient? Everyone has already arrived, so there is no need for me to continue hiding. Just as Brother Tao said, what happened in this village and why we chose to meet here, I will definitely Tell me everything you know, and tell me everything you know.”

Then, the old guy started talking. He said that he discovered this place twenty years ago. At that time, he and Cheng Tianyou of Chengjia Ranch explored the ruins in depth. Later, Cheng Tianyou was seriously injured because he triggered the taboo of Narcissus Cave. , Chi Xinzi was also seriously injured, and the two had to escape in panic.

Chengtianyou died of serious injuries. After I recovered from my injuries, I explored the Narcissus ruins many times. After many investigations, I found out that Anping Village was actually built at the entrance of the Narcissus ruins...

In other words, underneath this Anping Village are the ruins of Narcissus Cave?

He Ping asked quickly.

No, Shuixian Cave Mansion is naturally not here, but is hidden in an ancient well in front of the ancestral hall of Anping Village. Strictly speaking, the ancient well is just a passage that leads to a secret realm where Shuixian Cave Mansion is located.

The Narcissus Cave in the secret realm opens every ten years. This year happens to be the period in ten years when the cave opens. During this period, if we want to enter Narcissus Cave, the first step is to pass through this ancient well. , trying to enter that secret realm.

Chi Xinzi looked at the people around who were gearing up and quickly reminded them.

However, it is not easy to enter that secret realm. The person who opened that secret realm was an expert from the Three Yuan Demon Palace. He set up extremely complicated restrictions. If you don't understand the secrets, you may just fail.

Please elaborate.

Wu Meizi asked in a calm tone.

This restriction is the village itself. By the way, Brother Wumeizi, I'm afraid you have also noticed that the villager you tortured before noticed that the other person was tossing and turning and could only say a few words, no matter what you did. , and it’s indifferent, isn’t it?”

When Chi Xinzi asked, Wu Meizi remained silent, his bare brows furrowed into the character Chuan. His silence was also a kind of affirmation.

I think all of you here are more or less aware of the doubts in this village. The salesman pretended to be innocent and grinned: The reason is very simple. The villagers in this village are upright. , there is not a single living 'person' among the men, women, old and children in the village.

What do you mean?

Grandma Miaohua stretched her neck. Although her eye sockets were full of wrinkles, her eyes flashed with a strange light.

Old lady, I also feel that there is something unruly in this village, but if the people here are not 'people', then who are these villagers?

Chi Xinzi shook his head and did not answer. Instead, he asked the old man from the Ghost Crying Sect: Old Yao Ghost, you are the first to come to this village. You must have noticed it with your ability?

No, I don't see any problem either.

The old kiln ghost replied indifferently: However, after I entered this village, I smelled a very strange smell. The smell is very light and difficult for ordinary people to identify. The smell is a bit close to the fishy smell...

——The fishy smell. After hearing this, He Ping also realized that the unusual atmosphere he experienced after coming to this village indeed seemed to be a very light smell.

The villagers of Anping Village do look like human beings from the outside.

Chi Xinzi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and sneered: But if you want to say that they are human beings, then I don't agree. I know everyone in the village. They look the same as they did twenty years ago. That is to say, it will not age or increase in years, just like life has been fixed.

Also, if they are human beings, I have never seen them killed and they will not die. They will resurrect on the same spot the next day, and they will repeat their own action patterns year after year, day after day.' living people'.
