Chapter 10 Seal
Chu He nodded. This task sounds different, but it sounds the same.
We must find Yan Chixia first.
"By the way! What about the teacher?" Although Chu He was a graduate student of Professor Mo and also learned Professor Mo's Taoism and martial arts, he had not yet officially become a disciple and could not be called a master. Therefore, he still called Professor Mo the teacher like an ordinary graduate student.
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Master's realm is higher than ours, and it is the foundation-building stage. I think the identity arranged by the Fantasy Land must be different. In short, let's go to Lanruo Temple first."
Lanruogu Temple is not abandoned, but it seems very lively.
It is a rare paradise in the North. Many refugees gather here, and gradually formed a small settlement.
Many Buddhist temples and halls have been transformed, without the initial solemnity and aloofness of the temple, nor have they been occupied by tree demons later. The ghosts hide in the gloomy and terrifying spirits have been added.
"Is this Lanruo Temple? It's too exaggerated!"
"If it weren't for the stone tablet halfway up the mountain that clearly wrote it, I would have thought I had gone to the wrong place!" Jiang Xiaobai said with an exaggerated expression on his face.
"Good and misfortune come from each other. The tree demon grandma sealed here. I'm afraid that because the seal is not perfect, the big demon aura of the tree demon grandma still emits, and instead disperses the little demons and ghosts who harm the people." Chu He said.
"As for those officials, they know a little bit about the strangeness of Lanruo Temple, so they don't dare to come here to exploit the people."
"I'm afraid there are some people who know some truth, but they are helpless... harsh and fierce than tigers!"
As Chu He was speaking, Jiang Xiaobai interrupted arrogantly: "Okay! Okay! Stop hanging your book bag! Who hasn't read a book for a few years? You understand the truth! Go and find out where the tree demon grandma's seal is. Experience."
Chu He smiled awkwardly. Along the way, he would occasionally pretend to be a fool with some of his peers he met on the road, telling jokes that seemed to be worried about the country and the people, and then gaining a group of admirable eyes.
I didn't expect that I had developed the "bad" habit, and now I pretended to be in front of Jiang Xiaobai.
Of course, this habit seems to be nothing bad in Chu He. If a person lives not for the sake of showing off, what is the difference between it and a salted fish?
The seal is short, and although the demonic aura is weak, both of them are cultivators, so they naturally feel the response.
Following the direction of the demonic energy, I walked through the crowd and rushed all the way, and saw an ancient tree that was afraid of being surrounded by ten people.
The canopy is towering, and thousands of vines hang down from high places.
The branches were covered with small strips of cloth, and they were filled with wishes.
Under the shade of the trees, some people were kowtowing and burning incense and praying devoutly.
The people here actually worshiped the tree demon grandma as a god and a Buddha.
"What a group of fools! If they do this, they will only loosen the seal and release the tree demon in advance." Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly, and was about to step forward, but Chu He grabbed it.
"What do you want to do?" Chu He frowned.
Jiang Xiaobai turned his head and said, "Of course, it's to wake them up!"
Chu He shook his head and said, "It's useless! Look!"
Just under the shade of a big tree, a middle-aged monk praised the kindness of the "sacred tree" while treating the people who come and go, and even delivering herbs.
When faith is gained benefits, then the nature will change.
Jiang Xiaobai is also a top student after all, and he still understands this truth.
"This seal of the tree demon seems to be less reliable than we imagined. The tree demon already knows to control the person and helps him achieve his goal." Chu He whispered.
Although he was very uncertain, would his conversation with Jiang Xiaobai be sensed by the tree demon?
At this moment, the middle-aged monk suddenly looked up and saw Chu He and Jiang Xiaobai.
He pointed at it and shouted loudly: "My fellow villagers! Messenger! The sacred tree has its inspiration. These two people are spies of human-eating demons. They want to destroy the peace here. Everyone arrested them and sacrificed blood to the sacred tree."
Jiang Xiaobai had a bitter face, cursed inwardly, and hurriedly said, "Let's go quickly! You can't be surrounded by these people."
Although they are cultivators, many people with pale faces and thinness are stronger than those of these people.
However, this illusion world is obviously a world where the way of heaven is clear and the cycle of cause and effect is emphasized. Just like they hurt people too much life, karma will come. At the least, the Tao will fade away, and at the worst, the depravity will fall into a demon.
This demon is not a demon of cultivation, but a kind of wanton demon who is really sad and crazy and only wants to kill. It is the worst among demons and will sooner or later ruin itself.
Chu He shook his head and said, "It's too late! There are too many people here, and you and I don't have the ability to fly, so I can't escape!"
After saying that, Chu He kicked over an altar in front of the ancient tree, forcing several people who came back, raised the Yanling sword and shouted: "I am the head of the eighth-rank You Fang in the court. I have the emperor's order. Do you want to rebel?"
Rebellion was a serious crime in ancient times. Not only did it kill the nine clans, but even descendants who were lucky enough to be killed will be implicated and will never be able to raise their heads.
If Chu He's words were used to scare some insight, they would probably be useless. He, a mere eighth-rank captain, could not represent the court, and he was not qualified to be a serious crime of rebellion.
But these are just a group of ordinary people, even in the most difficult and helpless times, they have no courage to rebel.
When he heard Chu He's words and saw Chu He's official uniforms, he hesitated and turned his head to look at each other, but no one dared to step forward.
Chu He and Jiang Xiaobai both breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to leave, the middle-aged monk said again: "The sacred tree told me that he is not an official! He was pretended to be a demon. If you kill him, we can send his head to the official uniform to receive a reward. The bounty is a full hundred taels. If you exchange it for silver, everyone will have meat to eat."
This monk was obviously a monk who became a monk halfway through the journey, and he didn't even have the smell of a monk at all.
But no matter whether he was a real monk or not, the people who were originally frightened by Chu He's tiger skin were excited again.
"Try not to hurt people's lives later, just break your hands and feet!" Chu He whispered to Jiang Xiaobai.
Now that things have come to this point, a fierce battle may be inevitable. To avoid being plagued by karma, it is a last resort to only hurt and not kill. However, in this way, the difficulty of escaping will undoubtedly increase a lot.
"The sky is full and the earth is full, and the six laws and nine chapters are coming. The horse comes to chase me, breaking his four legs, and all the requests are fulfilled. I am willing to follow my heart. I am obeying the mysterious woman of the Nine Heavens, and I am urgently following the law and orders to forgive me."
The yellow light came from the sky, covering Chu He and Jiang Xiaobai.
The two were pulled by a huge force and moved quickly towards the distance. The steps under their feet were fast, uncontrollable, but they were extremely fast.
However, those people chasing after them all felt like ropes were tied up under their feet. Not only could they not run fast, but they would fall to the ground and roll into a ball to each other with a little force.
"Qimen Feidou! It's the master here!" Jiang Xiaobai said happily while flying.
For Jiang Xiaobai, Mo Chenghai's arrival undoubtedly adds backbone.
Chu He was thinking more.
"Did Professor Mo just come or have come a long time ago?"
