Unable to open my mouth, my body is stiff, like a marionette.
I've fallen victim.
The people on Tiezha Mountain not only possess Daoist arts but also have spiritual techniques. Without preemptive action, they will remain under their control.
Having arrived at Tiezha Mountain and stepping onto their territory, there is no possibility of being given an opportunity to resist.
Only can silently in the heart of chanted: "Dan Zhu Zheng Lun Qingjing she, Lingbao Tianzun Qushui she, Tai Guang Shuangling Youjing she. Peng Zhu, Peng Qiao, Peng Zhi not away from my body she. Taishang San Tian Wuzhi Xianziran she."
"I wash my body with the sun, and refine my form with the moon. The True Immortal guards me, and the Jade Maiden assists my form. The Twenty-Eight Constellations follow me in observance, and a thousand evil spirits and impurities are purified by their energy. Swiftly, as commanded by law."
Chanting silently, if not accompanied by the hand gestures, the effect will be much weaker and almost nonexistent.
Was that Daoist looking for Mo San San?
The two elder immortals of the second generation in the Ba Zhai school, even in his presence, dare not lift a hand to fight. What kind of strength does he possess?
Mo San San, can he withstand it?
He has cheated us. If he suffers misfortune, I won't feel any sorrow.
It is just that the whole plan of Wu Ling has failed, and I feel particularly unwilling to accept it.
The evil spirits outside the four rules mountain are so troublesome and heavy?
Tiezha Mountain is vast, and I only know that I have walked for a very long time, from dawn to dusk and back to dawn.
Actually, when it's dark, Lao Gong can come out.
But I don't know why he didn't appear.
In theory, it would be easy for him to save me and Wu Jinlan, even to put Han Jin into the confines of the grim prison. With the abilities of Wei Youming, we would definitely be able to escape unharmed.
Walking until the sunset, we arrived at a place where we weren't on the summit yet. There was a large gentle slope here, and on top of that slope, there was a square Daoist temple.
Sparse blue smoke wove around the Daoist temple, with some noisy voices, really fragrant and boiling.
Around the temple, wild flowers bloomed vividly, accompanied by babbling streams. Looking further out, towering cypresses stood tall, with rugged pines adding to the majestic feeling of cloud-shading and sun-blocking.
Just by the aura of this Daoist temple, I can tell that this place is definitely not a malicious one.
We were brought into the temple, and it was not the incense burning by laypeople, but mostly by Daoists. The temple had corridors intersecting in all directions, large but not bloated.
Until we reached a hall, the person leading us finally stopped.
After scanning us coldly with his eyes, he made us stay in the hall with Wu Jinluan, locked the door, and then together with the others, led Han Jin to leave.
Standing quietly, I am immovable.
After what felt like an endless time, I felt the sun's rays slanting outside, shining through the windows into the hall. I finally snapped out of it and could move again.
Wu Jinluan also suddenly covered his chest and stood up.
"The fox fairy confuses the vision, and the yellow-skinned man controls the people. These two things are too troublesome... "
"There's something else lurking in the shadows, something very terrifying. Originally, the two from the Ba Zhai lineage had a confrontation with that Daoist on their minds, but after sensing the presence of that thing, they even lost their courage to fight. They were willing to abandon everything, even their tongues..."
Wu Jinluan's face is extremely pale.
His words hit me like a bucket of cold water, making me enlightened.
Indeed, I remember a detail. Back when Bai Song and Bai Sha Shan were still arguing with this Daoist, and just about to fight, the ground did indeed tremble.
What kind of thing could cause such a racket?
It's actually that thing, completely frightening Bai Song and Bai Sha Shan!
At least, that Daoist is not as terrifying anymore... I forced a smile.
"Master Luo... I don't think so," Wu Jinlan stared blankly at the main hall door.
I remained silent.
"I told you about Mo San San's whereabouts," Wu Jinluan spoke in a sorrowful tone: "After you were restrained, that mouse suddenly climbed onto my face, licking my eyelid, trying to eat my eye balls. If I didn't say anything, I would lose these eyes."
"It's not your fault. Wanting him not to look for Mo San San, unless his target is Han Jin, which clearly it isn't." I shook my head again.
"With so many variables, Mo San San really knows about this? If this is also part of his calculations, he should be afraid of really burning himself. If there are no surprises, Mo San San would have left when we left the Underworld. That Daoist would only have run to waste and the Underworld would probably also have to suffer some inconvenience." Wu Jinluan's bitterness was even more intense.
"We plan this, we plan that, made so many efforts, were thrown down by Mo San San. Said to watch the process of refining the Yin God, actually a lie. Indeed, he such strength, said that kind of words, how can we distinguish whether he is lying? Or maybe he didn't lie before, but after a series of changes in situation after that let him change his mind."
"Hoping... he's okay. Otherwise, it would truly be a vain effort like splashing water with a bamboo basket."
Wu Jinluan's last sentence clearly conveys his meaning.
We were indeed calculated by Mo San San, but we won't die. If Mo San San doesn't get in trouble, we will be left behind while he goes off to complete his own mission.
He has his own adversaries, and dealing with Wu Ling was just a convenient task for him.
"Laosha, he's just a little overboard. Strictly speaking, he's an ally who helped resolve a big problem for Tiezha Mountain," Wu Jinluan added.
I nodded and grunted.
It appears that the door is not bound, and the hall inside is also empty and quiet. They left us here, but they haven't done anything to us.
"Bai Zhi... was injured so badly, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive. According to what the Daoist said, that was a pure good man, oh, what kind of thing is this? We shouldn't have interfered earlier. If we had said a few less words, the situation might have been a different outcome. Who knew that Mo San San would become so angry and strike without any measure." Wu Jinluan paced back and forth.
"Let's see how willing they are to let us go," I said, feeling around on my body, the phone was still there.
After I retrieved it, the signal here is still quite good.
My heart suddenly quickened its beat. I flipped open the phone and dialed Mo San San's number.
After a few rings, the line was picked up on the other end.
There was first quiet, then a sigh.
" I am helping you," Mo San San's voice rang out.
I didn't say anything right away.
"Is that also helping?" I opened my mouth, my voice was very hoarse.
"How can it not be helping? Not only are you being helped, but also Tiezha Mountain. Unfortunately, your senior is too righteous and straightforward in heart, don't you understand the principle that 'excessive rigidity easily leads to breaking'?"
"Han Jin can die, and if he doesn't, I won't be safe. If I'm not safe, how can Tiezha Mountain be alone? He goes with me to handle matters quietly, but in his heart, he's planning to kill me. His personality is so perverse. Tiezha Mountain will suffer a big loss because of him. I'm solving my own troubles and taking advantage of the situation to help you Tiezha Mountain clear up an internal worry. Isn't that a good thing?"
"If you don't go, there will be another result. Han Jin will be killed by the people left there, and the new ones will kill those two, and I will also take a small revenge for the Zhuqu Mountain."
